	I love them.
	Candy Unicorns.
	Candy Unicorns.
	Like sleeping?
	You could pet one.
	I live most of my life out on YouTube with only a little channel, a handful of subscribers,
	I reckon they didn't like me on the platform run bit.
	Back then it was mostly just me uploading short videos and me talking to my camera.
	I ain't had nothing but a bed sheet, a camera, a couple of microphones down there.
	Back then the Young Turks used to make quite a bit of sport of me.
	They teased me quite a bit.
	I got to the point where I could feed Hopper cheese and biscuits four times a week, but mostly I just sat out there.
	Making videos on my channel.
	Well, one night I was doing much nothing, just staring at the YouTube.
	Searching on a PragerU video for the Electoral College.
	All I could find was some nerd sh**ty makeup tutorials in my suggested feed.
	So I logged into my YouTube account to see what was wrong with it.
	Turns out every video been put in restricted.
	I even been unsubscribed from Lighter with Crowder, my favorite channel.
	I had to re-subscribe quite a bit.
	But even when I did, I didn't receive no notifications.
	Had to hit the bell three times.
	But then I ain't seen nothing but Trevor Knoll videos in my suggested feed.
	Then I just seen Red.
	I hired myself a half-Asian lawyer.
	Some people think he's half-Mexican and he's half-Asian.
	Got home a little shaped eyes and hair that stick out straight out the side of his head.
	Don't matter how he cut it, I reckon.
	He'd just puff out like that, black as pitch.
	Because he's half-Asian and whatnot.
	Well, I had my little builder go on in and talk with YouTube's top lawyers and parlay with them about our questions on my channel.
	But they didn't answer none of it.
	Not the restrictions and monetizations.
	They just kept asking us to spend more money on advertising and screaming, what'd you do to Trini Bain for?
	What'd you do to Trini Bain for?
	I reckon that made me madder than the whole notification business.
	So I had Bill Richmond.
	He's half Asian.
	Some people think he's half Mexican.
	He's half Asian.
	I had him walk right on into Susan Wojcicki's office at YouTube.
	Sure.
	So, I'm going to go ahead and get started.
	That is the last sip of the week.
	It's Thursday.
	Which means it's my favorite day of the week.
	That means it's Mug Club Chat Thursday, where we take more of your chats for about like an hour every Thursday.
	And of course, everyone comes up with incredibly profane names, but we love you for it.
	Before I move into anything else, first off, Hunter Biden's laptop is real.
	The more important part about that is, remember the 50 intelligence officials?
	Intelligence officials who said that it was Russian disinformation?
	That's what we should be focusing on.
	Is treason still a thing?
	Uh, no.
	I guess not.
	No, no.
	No, no, no, yeah.
	Just if you put on a funny hat and go into the Capitol, but if you actually lie about a sitting president's son making tens of millions of dollars with foreign oligarchs.
	No, no, nothing.
	It's fine.
	Nothing to see here.
	All good.
	So, we'll talk about that.
	We'll talk about the incoming food shortage.
	A lot of people have discussed it, but don't really understand why it's happening here in the United States.
	It's both Due to foreign affairs and due to domestic stupidity, you're gonna have to spend about $5,000 more per month.
	So let me ask you this first thing question is, do you feel confident that you could take care of your family?
	Right?
	Your family, your kin, in the event that we have a food shortage.
	In the event that you have to spend an extra $400 something dollars per month just to live.
	People said, how bad can it get?
	And people like me, I was wrong.
	The optimist would say, well, we have checks and balances, that it'll at least take a while.
	Sorry.
	No.
	I apologize.
	It was so fast.
	This has happened so quickly.
	You thought gas was bad.
	Oh my word.
	So we're going to be talking about all this.
	Pets are more yes than no.
	Right.
	Did you just say 5,000 a year?
	Yes.
	More?
	Oh gosh.
	Does that mean we get raises?
	Uh, well, no, because I don't get a raise.
	Ah.
	Well, you know what?
	If you join MugClub, loudwithcarter.com slash MugClub, please, you can help me feed poor Gerald.
	Thank you.
	He eats as much as a small house, if houses would eat, Monster House.
	I'm a DreamWorks guy.
	They're still big.
	Also, if this show gets removed from YouTube, because we have some things we'll be discussing today that might not be too YouTube-friendly, and by that I mean Accurate?
	It still streams Monday through Thursday at 10 a.m.
	Eastern on Rumble or on Mug Club.
	Just go over to Rumble.
	Nothing would make me happier than to bust YouTube's balls and have every single last one of you subscribers go over to Rumble.
	We'll let you know when there's no show.
	If you don't see us on YouTube, it doesn't mean there's no show.
	It just means that they don't like us.
	Okay!
	So, Gerald A. is here.
	How are you?
	I'm not as good as I was doing a minute ago.
	I just got a $5,000 deduction from my pay.
	So, how are you?
	Well, I mean, come on, man.
	You're still living in America above ground.
	That's true.
	That guy on CNN has a turtleneck, so he's doing pretty well.
	Look at that.
	He's a sprocket.
	Now's the time on CNN where we dance!
	That's Steve Jobs?
	Well, it's the ghost of Steve Jobs.
	Ooh, I was a fruitarian!
	Worked like a charm.
	You know him, you love him, you hear him, at Landau Dave on Twitter.
	Dave Landau, how are you?
	Good, how about you?
	Ahoy!
	I'm doing alright.
	You got your family too in town?
	Yes, I do.
	That's nice.
	Yeah, taking my son to some events.
	Good, well you know what, you might want to tell your son to just cut back on the calories.
	That's what we've said.
	We feel, yeah, food shortage, good stuff.
	Right.
	He should just join Shortage Watchers.
	Yeah, we're gonna do a little Old Yeller sometime.
	A little bit of Famine Craig.
	Yeah.
	Stephen, this is a national diet.
	Pick his weakest friend.
	Yes, exactly.
	All right, I haven't seen this, but we'll talk about this first before anything, is apparently Will Smith This was just given to me by the producers.
	I said, don't watch this.
	You'll see it on air for the first time.
	Apparently Will Smith is also a high school track star?
	That's f***ing illegal!
	You're f***ing kidding me!
	You're f***ing kidding me!
	No.
	I have to tell you, I'm surprised it took that long for that to happen.
	I'm surprised that the biathlon, I don't get it.
	If I'm in second place, I'm just picking off first.
	Gold medal.
	Thank you.
	Isn't that how you hand off the baton?
	That's what I thought.
	Yeah, I assumed that you just punched the guy in front of you.
	Otherwise, why would you give him a steel baton?
	I like this way more than the old way.
	Why would you play the knockout game during the race?
	Yeah, come on.
	Isn't it obvious?
	It's to win the race.
	You don't come in first if that guy's gonna win.
	Right!
	Well, hold on, time out.
	When in the history of man has a white guy been faster in general?
	I mean, come on.
	Caitlyn Jenner?
	Uh, yeah.
	Can you deadname in that situation?
	Because it was Bruce that won the match.
	No, Caitlyn Jenner, Bruce Jenner even said like, Bruce Jenner made a joke saying, at least I had the balls to compete with the men and men should not be competing with women.
	This is getting silly with all this, men competing against women.
	This is getting really silly.
	I mean, I'm a man with fake tits.
	That we now know the lesson, right?
	It's slow, slow and violent wins the race.
	Right, yeah.
	Did he think nobody would see him?
	I mean, everybody's watching you do this.
	Can we play this again?
	Because it does look for a second like he does a little bit of a...
	Did he get run into or something?
	Because he looks like he's all out of sorts.
	Yes, that's what happened.
	He was accidentally run into and was like, my hand slipped!
	No, no, I mean, he did throw the punch after.
	I'm just saying he looked like there was like some bumping going on.
	Track is so boring, though.
	It would be funny if everybody was just looking at their phones.
	Yes.
	Oh, what happened?
	Well, what you could do is play this game in Detroit and just give them, you know, a piece of evidentiary, an evidentiary weapon.
	Just pass off the hot Saturday night special.
	That's true.
	You would still get a scholarship.
	Yes, you still would absolutely get a scholarship.
	All of you would.
	Particularly in the women's division when you're a man.
	Alright, let's see.
	Let me see this again.
	He hesitates!
	Oh no, you're right.
	Nope, nope.
	No running into.
	That's a terrible shot.
	Does he walk back over and do something?
	What's going on?
	No, he just keeps running to win.
	What you need to do is have him... The punishment should be forcing that man to run straight into the wrestling room.
	Oh, for sure.
	And just let that team just, you know... He just forced Gullum to sit right up.
	Yes, exactly.
	I kept running.
	Why?
	Just get a bunch of corn-fed angry white farm boys who couldn't make the cut for any other team and it turns out they're good at violence.
	Researchers are saying too, according to witnesses, the guy who threw the hit was not in the race.
	Oh, he just ran onto the track.
	He's just like a felony streaker?
	Yeah.
	He's just like a violent streaker?
	It's like, remember Parachute Man and the Evander Holyfields?
	There's a white kid tied up in the locker room like on Scooby-Doo, in his uniform.
	Yeah, they just said he tried getting in the way of the previous lap and then threw that hit, I guess.
	Why didn't they stop him before?
	Come on!
	We have an epidemic of no security in this country.
	I mean, Will Smith walked the equivalent of what is a private jet runway to smack Chris Rock.
	This guy makes it onto the track.
	He didn't even run across the track!
	Here's what I do respect, is he wanted to get a hit in on a guy, he wasn't in on the race, but he decided to lay low.
	He knew that he was fast enough to beat all the other guys rather than run across the track.
	He's like, yeah, I'll run a few laps, and then BOOM!
	You know what I don't like, though?
	The disrespect.
	That's the most hurtful thing is the lack of respect.
	Well, the punch.
	The punch is, well, the second, the thing that hurts the second most is the lack of respect.
	We've got a lot of growing up to do.
	Third most, the track when you hit it after being punched.
	Well, yeah, that's the second most, and then the punch.
	Then maybe the punch.
	Then the punch.
	Punches first, and then third is the lack of respect.
	Well, actually what hurts the most is what happened next when he got ahold of a javelin.
	Yes.
	Yeah, the pole vault is really... it's kind of ugly.
	It was just white track star skewers.
	Check our privilege, guys.
	And that's, by the way, that's also... come on, that's not... that's an oxymoron.
	What, white track star?
	Yeah, that's not real.
	You'll see in the upcoming Change My Mind, actually, someone accused me of being racist because I said that, in general, at the elite level, black people tend to run faster times than white people.
	I was like, I would never say that!
	I actually saw a clip of that.
	So you're saying black people are better athletes?
	Yes.
	Yeah.
	You got me.
	You got me.
	Seen an NBA game recently?
	I'm complimenting you.
	You're right.
	Yes, they are.
	And we don't have any white people don't have any sport anymore.
	I mean, we just, you know, white people had golf and then Tiger Woods came in.
	You're saying they're better soul singers?
	Well, you got me.
	Yeah.
	Are you saying that they have more interesting cultural dances?
	Correct.
	Yes.
	You got me again.
	You know what, you're right.
	I should never compliment you again.
	But then people will get mad if I say, uh, not as strong as the crazy Eastern European, you know, Polish, the Norwegian, the Icelandic.
	There's nothing better to do.
	No, those people are just the strongest people in the world and the fastest, most athletic people.
	If you look at all the land speed records, tend to be black.
	Also, don't punch your fellow track mate.
	I hope that they lock them in a racquetball court.
	My fellow track mate.
	Some guy.
	Yeah, some guy.
	Some random guy running onto the track.
	Yeah.
	Got it.
	Was he running onto the track with a hot dog?
	You know what, I could do this.
	You didn't even spill my food.
	Are you allowed to hit him?
	I think I could do this.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	This is totally a fun race.
	IT'S CAP NIGHT AT THE FIELD, BITCH!
	Oh, alright.
	I gotta admit, he's pretty good for a guy who just decided to do it right then.
	Yeah, exactly.
	I mean, look, respect where it's due.
	Okay, speaking of respect where it's due, people have talked about the great reset.
	I will say this.
	The left is incredibly effective at moving towards things unbelievably quickly without concern, not only for the opposing party, for the opposing half of America, but without concern for the well-being of Americans.
	And I've always said this in the past, and I will say my views are changing a little bit.
	You know, you can comment below if you think that I was just being naive.
	I don't want to be getting bitter, but I've always said, don't attribute to malice what you can attribute to ignorance.
	Now, I don't believe that there's some master plot with just one or two people here who are acting in unison.
	But I do think that at this point in time, when you look at what is happening, not only with inflation, not only with gas prices, not only with unemployment, and you look at this administration praising the actions that have led to it, with no one saying, look, we get it.
	This isn't great.
	At a certain point, you have to say, their heels are so dug in, they don't care if it's good for you or not.
	And that's contrast to Republicans.
	For example, Donald Trump, love Donald, didn't do enough with Section 230, the internet.
	These were missed opportunities.
	You see right away when Democrats come into office, they're going, hey, why aren't you censoring enough?
	Right away, they become more aggressive.
	Right away, they want to increase taxes.
	Right away, they decide to shut down pipelines.
	So, this also brings us to the food shortage.
	A lot of people have said there's an incoming food shortage.
	That is true.
	But it's worse than you think.
	It's a lot worse than you think.
	And I hate to be the bearer of bad news.
	There's not much of a silver lining here.
	That's why we have, like, Prepare with Crowder.
	I don't know if it's still up, preparewithcrowder.com.
	They're not a sponsor today, but I've always said, just have an emergency supply ready for at least a month, because I lived through the ice storm in Montreal.
	You know, we lived through the riots, the pandemic, where you couldn't find toilet paper.
	These are things that we've lived through, and right now, this is the first time in our lives where you're going to see a shortage across the board.
	And it's not one of those things that is beyond our control.
	It is directly within the control of the leaders who are supposed to be representing you.
	Okay.
	So let me set this up with the BlackRock president.
	We've talked about him before.
	Rob Capito.
	Capito.
	I don't want to give him the honor of pronouncing his name.
	Capito.
	We'll go with that.
	We'll go with asshole.
	Robby.
	He said that an entitled generation, that's you, needs to brace for the shock of shortages and higher inflation.
	Entitled, this is a guy who by the way is part of a company that, you know, they own more homes than any one large central organization in American history and now we've created an entire class of renters.
	They want you!
	They want you to be the working class struggling.
	Why?
	Because then you're dependent on them.
	There is absolutely malice at play with BlackRock, and there's absolutely malice at play with Elizabeth Warren and people in government who say BlackRock is too big to fail.
	It is not an accident.
	That's not conspiratorial.
	Don't let these facts hit you in the teeth.
	The economists at Bloomberg, they also said, I think, Americans should budget.
	It's over $5,000 a year.
	I think it's $5,200 a year.
	That's $400-something a month due to higher prices.
	Wow.
	So this is the guy that is worth $400 million telling a generation they're entitled, and his company has trillions of dollars in assets under management?
	Give or take a couple hundred million.
	He's not entitled.
	Slash billion slash trillion.
	No.
	Okay, good.
	Just making sure I understand.
	Just when we were kids, we couldn't even fathom the concept of a company and trillion underneath its umbrella.
	Now it's just a rounding error.
	Trillion was a fake number.
	Yes, exactly.
	So it was like a trillion bazillion gillion.
	You're like, You don't know numbers!
	Yeah, that'll never exist.
	That was like when some kid would say, I can count to a trillion.
	You'd be like, you're just a compulsive liar, Calvin.
	Go ahead, Calvin.
	Start now.
	I'll see you when you're 46.
	Trillion.
	Yeah.
	Liar.
	Boom.
	So, all references available at ladderwithcrowder.com, and we'll have the link pinned if you're on YouTube, which I recommend you're on Rumble or on Mug Club, but we'll have it in the comment that's pinned so you can see all these references, because it's pretty important today.
	I don't want you to just take my word for it.
	So, $5,200 more per year due to higher prices.
	That's probably significant to you.
	It's significant to me.
	It's significant to people who work here.
	And of course, speaking in Brussels last week, former Vice President Biden said that food
	shortages, so we have BlackRock saying it.
	And this is former Vice President Biden trying to soften the blow.
	This is still the best he could give you.
	With regard to food shortages, yes, we did talk about food shortages.
	And it's going to be real.
	The price of these sanctions is not just imposed upon Russia.
	It's imposed upon an awful lot of countries as well, including European countries and
	our country as well.
	Here's the thing.
	It's one, it's one thing to say that.
	It's another thing to know that you are saying that and it is directly the result of your horrendously failed policies.
	It's another thing to say that, know that it is the direct result of your horrendously failed policies, and have no shame!
	And barely be able to get it out.
	It's amazing.
	Wow.
	Just bumbled through the whole thing.
	At least Donald Trump wouldn't have taken that on the cheap.
	Listen, okay, look, there are a lot of people telling me there are going to be higher food supplies.
	A lot of people are saying that because, because of, I shouldn't say this, I might get Nancy Pelosi, folks.
	A lot of people saying Nancy Pelosi, she's buying up all the ice cream supply, demand, supply.
	Pelosi, as I call them, Pelosi ice cream economics.
	A lot of people not big fans of Pelosi and her ice cream refrigerator.
	Ukraine, Russia.
	You think it's far off.
	Well, let me go foreign, as to what's happening, and how that's affecting you.
	Of course, unfortunately, that's the direct result of policies from our leaders here.
	And then let me go to domestic policy, because that's something that a lot of people don't discuss.
	Okay.
	So, we have Russia, we have Ukraine, right?
	A food supply issue.
	35% of all global calories come from wheat and corn.
	Let me set that up.
	Now, I know the gluten-free people going, oh, oh no!
	It's not about you!
	They always think so.
	Yeah, you gave yourself a food shortage.
	Yeah, exactly.
	I want to give them a food shortage.
	Yes.
	I want to hook them up to a gluten morphine drip.
	Do it for the common good.
	I can have gluten that came with my Range Rover.
	Yes.
	Is there gluten in it?
	Oh, what do you have?
	Do you have brain fog?
	Do you have joint pain?
	Do you have psoriasis?
	Do you have rheumatoid arthritis?
	Oh, you know what?
	Just cut out gluten.
	Really?
	Oh, well, thanks.
	Oh, simple.
	That's all it is.
	Wow, that didn't work at all.
	So combined, 35% of all calories come from corn and wheat.
	Combined, Russia and Ukraine account for a third of all wheat exports.
	A fifth of all corn exports.
	From February to March alone, wheat exports from Russia and Ukraine fell by 7 million tons, 12%.
	Not to mention you're going to have these banking restrictions, of course, which should hurt Russian oligarchs.
	We'll get to that in a second.
	Yeah.
	Hey, those Russian oligarchs are really feeling these sanctions.
	And since Russia's invasion, wheat prices, they've increased by about a third, 30-something percent.
	Some places have it as low as 30.
	Some places have it as high as 33.
	I think the reference we have here is about 31 percent.
	The UN is predicting 20 to 30 percent of the Ukraine's wheat is going to go completely unharvested in the 2022-23 season.
	So it's going to get worse.
	That means that feed prices are going to increase up to 22 percent.
	So what do we have?
	We have wheat prices increasing.
	We have a shortage.
	Then we have feed prices increasing, which will affect everything else.
	That needs to be fed!
	Yeah, exactly.
	One of my buddies actually makes his own wheat and they make their own bread and stuff just for fun.
	Like, they're not, you know, crazy hippies.
	I hate him already.
	Go ahead.
	No, no, no.
	He does it.
	His wife loves to do it.
	For fun!
	I make sourdough!
	For fun!
	But they're not crazy hippies.
	They're actually really cool people.
	And they were paying twice as much to get, I guess, what are the wheat kernels or whatever they get to actually do that.
	Twice as much as they paid four months ago.
	So I lied.
	There is a silver lining.
	It's true.
	Gerald's goat-farmer-slash-yogurt-fermenting friends have to pay a little bit more to live their self-important lifestyle.
	I hope they pay with their lives.
	They know what toast points are!
	Or at least their self-respect.
	So here's something that people don't account for, too.
	Of course, it's going to happen in the United States.
	That being said, it's going to be inconvenient for you, and you know what?
	It could be really bad for you if you're a middle-class family struggling to survive over $5,000 a year, over $400 a month.
	But just like climate change, gas prices are horrible for you.
	Inflation is horrible for you.
	It is deadly for people in the third world, which is where most shortages are going to occur.
	Facing a meltdown of the global food system, a stark warning from the United Nations that Russia's war in Ukraine could send food prices through the roof and cause severe damage to developing economies, most notably in Africa.
	The impact will be particularly severe in Sudan, which is already enduring an economic and humanitarian crisis.
	It imports over 85% of its wheat from Russia and Ukraine.
	The country knows food insecurity only too well.
	Sawing bread prices was the catalyst for mass protests in 2019 that led to the ouster of longtime ruler Omar al-Bashir and a military takeover last year.
	He has islands half closed like the Animal Muppet.
	Very high.
	I am a sex tourist in Africa.
	It's half closed like the animal muppet. Yeah. It's very high. The Ukraine crisis and increasing that by 65%. I am a
	sex tourist in Africa. Almost 20 million people by the end of the year or almost half the country being food insecure.
	Food shortage. I like that food insecure is a fun PC term for starving.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Those people in Sudan, they're almost as affected as Gerald's self-important friends who make the sourdough.
	They're going to have to buy Wonder Bread, the poor bastard.
	God forbid they have to smear it with Jif.
	You have to be the richest person in the world to afford a gluten allergy.
	You do.
	That should be the test for your tax bracket.
	Do you have a gluten allergy?
	You're part of the 1%.
	We're taking 90.
	That's a part of the privilege test.
	Yes, exactly.
	These people in Sudan are more concerned with, I don't know, generally, not dying.
	As soon as a head pops off the pillow, that is, time to try and not die today.
	I'm trying to figure out how to eat mud.
	It's not calorie-dense.
	It's like hook.
	I just pictured that it's colorful dessert.
	Earth pudding?
	Bangarang!
	It doesn't work that way.
	I can only say it so many times before all my energy runs out, so I whisper, Bangarang.
	Oh good, the flies have come back to my face.
	Oh hello, sweet friend.
	At least they're eating.
	So, 26 countries.
	26 countries get more than half of their wheat from Russia and the Ukraine.
	And of course, most of these countries, like you just saw, the Middle East, North Africa, poor countries.
	Wheat alone, it's almost 40% of the caloric intake.
	By the way, 100% of Somalia's wheat are coming from Ukraine and Russia. 100%!
	That's not a typo.
	Pirates need to diversify.
	Well, that's true, but Somalia is known for being the smorgasbord of food everywhere.
	They can get whatever they want.
	Now, a hundred percent... Just attack a ship that has some cinnamon toast crunch on it.
	They're going to find one with fuel and be like, your golden grams are mine now.
	They belong to me.
	And the captain now.
	I have gluten allergy.
	Is this a gluten ship?
	So here's something else too.
	This creates unrest.
	Before I get to the United States, we set it up with how much you're going to pay, but let me also get to domestic policy.
	Before, let me fill you in on how this affects all of us.
	Because look, the war machine is profitable.
	If you continually create unrest and you have these international forms of government, guess what?
	It makes it a lot easier to lead people by the nose into conflicts that they have no business.
	Now, keep in mind, you may say, well, who really cares?
	And I get it.
	course, they're skyrocketing, and they're leading to unrest in places like, you know,
	the fun old land. It's like the Epcot center of the Middle East, Iraq.
	Now, keep in mind, you may say, well, who really cares? And I get it. But I'm in about
	Iraq.
	They've never gotten it right.
	Not saying I don't care about the people.
	I'm saying I don't care about the country.
	Such a romantic language.
	The Assyrians and the Babylonians, it was okay for a little bit.
	Yeah, yeah, until they tried to build a tower.
	Okay, so I know someone's going to be like, I don't care about your biblical references and Mesopotamia and geographical accuracy.
	Is it Babel? So remember, I don't know if you remember this, remember the Arab Spring? That
	was a thing that actually happened, 2011, and that was largely caused, not largely,
	but it was a contributing factor, food shortages, right?
	That created unrest. If people can't eat, they fight. Something else that I want to clarify, this is
	also, this is a more severe version of what we've been talking about for the last few years, where
	someone might shut down your business, and people would say, oh, okay, I'm sorry, we're all in
	this together.
	Just rewind human history a couple hundred years, and really every business, it was just trading so that you could eat.
	Our entire days were spent, especially when we were nomadic tribes, let's go back pre-industrial revolution, let's go back pre-agricultural revolution.
	Before we had really become agrarian, guess what?
	Your days were spent trying to eat.
	And if some form of government or leadership put you in a position where you couldn't eat, it was a mutiny, you killed them.
	And then you ate them!
	That's what happened.
	So scale it back, you can't run your business.
	Scale it back, you can't go to work.
	Scale it back, you now can't afford to drive to work.
	And people say, we're all in this, well how far, how much food do you have to take from someone's mouth?
	And now we are literally at the point where food will be taken from your mouth.
	Arab Spring, food unrest was a contributing factor.
	Now keep in mind, ooh, ooh, they're palming it, right?
	Oh, look at the left hand, so you don't know what the right hand is doing.
	Leftist news outlets like Voice of America, or Voice of America.
	They don't even say voices.
	They love to say they are the voice of America.
	How presumptuous.
	They blamed the famine on what?
	Climate change.
	As the Arab Spring uprisings took hold across the Middle East and North Africa in 2010, millions of people fled their homes to find new lives in the years that followed.
	Researchers claim to have identified evidence of a causal link between those conflicts and changes to the climate.
	Yeah, because it's never been hot there.
	Yeah, it's brand new.
	The report authors say the roots of the Syrian conflict can be found in preceding droughts and water shortages.
	Hmm.
	Climate change, you say?
	Send in an expert.
	Inspector Thurnberg.
	I don't know why your plants won't grow at 158 degrees.
	Yes, you should stop eating plants and start eating crickets.
	How dare you?
	How dare you?
	Just no.
	I'm 18 now, so no one pays attention to me.
	They're done with you, sorry.
	We told you it was coming.
	Hey, by the way, YouTube, I don't care if you're getting mad that Urbillis is in a private conversation.
	You can't criticize Greta Thunberg because she's 17.
	I said, so when she's 18, fair game?
	They're like, we prefer you don't.
	Well, guess what?
	We just did.
	Hey, YouTube!
	I'm on your platform insulting your shit!
	Thank you, YouTube.
	Yes, thank you for protecting me.
	For defending my tiny breasts.
	Thank you for making sure that we are not commenting on my eyes.
	So, Russia, they don't just grow crops, they continue to make it possible for us to grow them too.
	This is probably the biggest component here, that they are the largest exporter in the world of fertilizer.
	There's going to be a fertilizer shortage.
	Oh, of poop?
	Cool.
	That's how you know that you're in dire straits, when you can't find enough poop.
	Because they can't make it because they don't got food.
	I mean, guys, aren't there some streets in India?
	Couldn't you just run like a snowplow and just... Circle of life.
	So, let me give you a couple examples of fertilizer.
	Urea is one.
	They're the number one producer of urea.
	I bet it is.
	Urea.
	Ammonia and potash, number two producer, which I don't know why we're not getting that from Canada!
	Urea and potash.
	It's potash.
	Potash?
	It's potash.
	Actually, you're right.
	You know what?
	You're right.
	It's potash because I'm sorry.
	I had a teacher, a geography teacher.
	I'm a child.
	That's just funny.
	Canadian geography is the only thing more boring than Canadian history.
	Yeah.
	Unlike American history, you learn about the revolution.
	You learn about the Civil War.
	You learn about how we fought for freedom.
	And in Canada, like, the king said, do this.
	And we said, yeah, all right.
	Oh, okay.
	The only thing more boring is Canadian Geography, because you have about 90% of the population along 10% of the border, and the rest of it is completely useless aside from mining.
	And I remember, this is the only thing I remember from Canadian Geography, that they mine potash in Estherhazy.
	And that's because I had a teacher who really thought this was clever.
	He would go, Mr. Crowder, if you need a trick to remember the main mineral exports... And I'm like, I don't really want that trick.
	I don't really... I don't like the setup.
	Is he one of those sweat hogs?
	Yeah, he would say, so, what made Esther hazy?
	I'm like, I don't really care.
	It was the potash.
	But it worked, because I remember it, and nothing else.
	Yeah, there you go.
	Thanks a lot.
	You can fact check me, by the way.
	Comment below if I'm right, that they still mine potash in Esther hazy Canada.
	What a silly country.
	Can someone take them over?
	Now, combined, Russia, Belarus, they account for 40% of the global exports of potash.
	The U.S.
	imports potash from Russia, Belarus, of course, it's like 6% coming from each.
	That's 12%?
	That's ideal.
	It's 12 too much percent.
	Now, this is going to harm the Russian oligarchs, so we have sanctions on Russian natural gas, tariffs, of course.
	But here's the thing that the right has always talked about.
	It's not just if you tax people more, they'll have less money to put into the economy, right?
	This is what we believe.
	People with more free income, they spend more, the economy does better.
	It's almost like we saw that kind of work for three years under Donald Trump, but I digress.
	It's almost like we've A-B tested.
	Eight years of Barack Obama, former Vice President Joe Biden.
	Three and a half years because that last year, let's be honest, that was just kind of a scratch because of what the left did with the COVID.
	Remember when that was a thing?
	Where's the ticker on CNN?
	No, no, no, no, no ticker.
	There is no ticker anymore.
	Yeah, it's fine now.
	It also, and then we have another two years of, not even four, two years of, again, former Vice President Joe Biden.
	One of these things is not like the other.
	Now, though I do think former Vice President Joe Biden doesn't belong, the taxes aren't just about domestic spending.
	When you look at the sanctions, you look at the tariffs that are taking place in Russia, guess what?
	It impacts the price of nitrogen, which is key for fertilizer production.
	So again, you say it's only going to hurt the Russian oligarchs.
	Not only does it not exclusively harm the Russian oligarchs—by the way, we'll get to Hunter Biden in a little bit, who is making money from the Russian oligarchs—to the tune of many, many, many, many, many millions.
	Also Ukraine, though.
	So he's an equal opportunity— He's an entrepreneur!
	Corruptor.
	Yeah, you know.
	But it also affects Americans.
	Here, if you eat anything, I don't care if you're plant-based, Because you're homosexual?
	I don't care if you're a carnivore!
	Diet.
	Because you're a part of the Peterson family.
	You are affected by the price of fertilizer.
	So, according to Nathan Carson, he's the VP of Operations at a fertilizer company called Chemical Dynamic, he said, So, what does this mean?
	Harming the Russian oligarchs.
	Well, that's what we all believe, right?
	threat of countervailing duties and high commodity prices are all driving record highs for nitrogen.
	So what does this mean?
	Harming the Russian oligarchs.
	Well, that's what we all believe, right?
	We all believe it's some guy behind a long table like, oh, no.
	He is the main... Now I can't use as much nitrogen.
	Oh rats.
	I can't do the nitrous oxide.
	How will I do?
	Whip it!
	What?
	I just have ecstasy but I want to pool party.
	Yes!
	And if I can have large table in pool.
	Yes, come on.
	It's like water ping pong on extremely large table that of course is unnecessary, but that is sign of status.
	That's why I'm Russian oligarchy.
	Longest game of longest ping pong ever.
	Yes, that's right.
	Sometimes we play like table shuffleboard, but I can never reach.
	Don't get me started on table bocce ball.
	I slide the shot down.
	Too many oyster shells for table.
	What does this mean?
	Russian oligarchs.
	The Russians.
	Those are the only people who are harmed.
	Well, no, not only the Russian people, but surging fertilizer prices for who?
	American farmers.
	Here at Dave Morris Farms in Heartland.
	And we're on about 900 acres of corn.
	But this year, the grass isn't necessarily green.
	It's like a roller coaster.
	Some days you feel like Getting your head against the wall.
	The war in Ukraine leaving farmers in the dust.
	Jim Wren says because Russia is the number one fertilizer supplier in the U.S., prices will be at least three times higher for farmers.
	My cost this year will be just short of $900 a ton, where last year it was $220 a ton.
	Do you think that guy, like, came in because he knew it was gonna be on national television in a tuxedo and they said, hmm, they want a more earthy look?
	Yeah, no, throw a hood on.
	You got any Carhartts you could buy?
	I wanted to put on my Sunday best because I was gonna be on local television.
	Like, nah, put on your coveralls.
	We want you to look really grimy.
	He said, I want to hit my head against the wall.
	The cows were like, yeah, whatever.
	Moo.
	We want you to as well.
	I'll live longer.
	Straight through the killing floor.
	Every time.
	I saw you shock him.
	You brought in Javier Bardem with that air just... Talking trash to the cow before killing it.
	We could face food shortages in America.
	We could face food shortages.
	I will bet, and you guys can bet, okay?
	You guys can comment below.
	If you think it's likely that we'll face- I actually do at this point.
	Well, the president said we will.
	Not that he's always right, but he happens to be on this- We never- Hey.
	Former vice president.
	Yeah.
	Sorry, I apologize.
	That was me.
	You take- YOU TAKE THAT DISRESPECT OUT YOUR F***ING MOUTH!
	That's right.
	It was a joke, man.
	It was a presidential joke.
	So if we don't have food shortages, you will definitely be facing higher prices.
	A recent report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics says that consumer food prices have risen nearly 8% since February 2021.
	Food markets are globalized, so to a certain extent it's impossible to avoid the impacts of disruptions like this.
	Caitlin Welsh is a food policy expert at the Center for Strategic International Studies.
	Though other countries face direct threats to their food supplies due to the war, she says Americans are not totally insulated from the impact.
	I do think that this is going to continue to put more upward pressure for a longer amount of time on prices in the U.S.
	than if we didn't have this war.
	It's through increase in prices of these inputs that you see farmers are going to have to pay a lot more to produce, and then consumers are going to have to pay a lot more to buy this food.
	So to your pocket, that is a food shortage, though, to plenty of Americans.
	Even if it's not to you and me, there's plenty of people that will starve out or make hungry.
	I mean, that's the reality of it.
	And not only that, but if everyone has to tighten down, they have to batten down the hatches, tighten their belts, well guess what?
	They're going to eat out less.
	We've had a record number of restaurants already closed due to COVID.
	Guess what?
	The Uber Eats drivers, the delivery drivers, they're going to be affected by it.
	Guess what?
	If they have less money because they have to spend it on food at home, they're going to spend less money on everything, period.
	This is what we are talking about.
	When people say, oh, Reagan, trickle-down economics.
	No, no, you don't understand.
	There's a certain point where taxation no longer has a net benefit.
	You can only generate so much revenue.
	That being said, there is a direct correlation between a booming economy and people having more money in their own pocket Given the freedom to spend it as they desire and, so it's important, that that is combined with affordable prices for goods and services.
	That's what we had!
	That's what we had for two, three years.
	That's why an overwhelming majority of Americans who may not like mean tweets are saying that we are headed in the wrong direction.
	It's the worst polling of any president within his first two years in history, even though he's a former vice president, but we put him in that pool.
	Right, and don't think of this as paying more alone.
	People will die.
	People in developing countries especially will die.
	The poor in the United States will die.
	There are people that will die because of this.
	And we've already seen a 30% something increase in prices of corn and wheat year-over-year.
	Again, all references are available at ladderwithcreditor.com.
	This hike has added to what?
	An already 40-year high inflation.
	Everyone out there, you've all felt inflation.
	And this is the problem, too.
	You see that in the media.
	You see former Vice President Biden talking about it.
	They're saying, well, you know, this is something necessary sacrifices, or because of the inputs that we... Look!
	Look!
	How about some passion?
	People see you, by the way, people see you in Washington, D.C., New York, Los Angeles, as the same.
	CNN has two bureaus, right?
	So does Fox News in Washington, D.C.
	and in New York.
	You guys are just talking about this as observers.
	Like, the average American, it's just sort of this little science experiment, this Petri dish that you can screw with at will.
	These are people's lives.
	And you can only trick them for so long saying, hey, we're going to tax the ultra-wealthy more.
	Let me ask you this.
	If right now, right now, they increase taxes on families making over $400,000 a year by 20%, Right now.
	Would that help you?
	What would the net benefit be for you?
	Right now.
	Comment below.
	I genuinely want to know.
	They're just stirring division and hate and none of it, none of it is a benefit to you.
	Not to mention I think taxation is theft.
	That's a conversation for another day.
	They look at you, the American.
	The American citizen, the middle class American citizen, which by the way at this point in time is like $100,000 joint household income because of inflation.
	If you look at the numbers that have been changing, depending on the sources that use, they look at you like this little broken toy that they can just fix, that they stuff you in their garage, in their den, in their hobby room, when they feel like getting to it.
	$5,200 a year, $400 a month, you're not feeling that?
	And you have to sit there and watch someone on a think tank.
	Talk about how all of this might affect if you actually look at import-export coordinators.
	Shut up!
	You know who else tells their citizens we're all in this together and this food shortage and that hunger that you have is for the greater good of our country?
	Stalin?
	North Korea.
	It's exactly what they tell their citizens.
	Asseline the brain, he knows.
	Or the mob.
	Yeah.
	We're all in this together.
	You talking about Bill Gates?
	Yes.
	They say, hey, you need to be protected.
	Be ashamed if something happened to you.
	That's weird.
	You could die of starvation if I don't give you this food.
	Be ashamed if you develop this competing slash and more efficient software and your wife burn alive like the dead in Heels Have Eyes.
	I don't know.
	I'm just saying, you don't want to get a virus.
	I'm just saying, you have no idea.
	And then if you get the virus, you don't want to get an experimental injection, do you?
	How's your heart?
	That's what I'm going to say.
	So this would be one thing if this happened and it's outside of our control.
	That's what they want you to believe, right?
	This is out of our control.
	It's climate change.
	Bullshit!
	Bullshit!
	And this is also why you need to look at the people who are trying to sell you climate change as the reason for everything.
	Let's say we pass the Green New Deal, all five pages of it, right now.
	How would it help you?
	How would it help the man in Sudan who can't even afford to eat?
	It wouldn't change anything.
	This is not outside of our control.
	This is not an act of nature.
	This is an act of your government playing God.
	And you are their subject.
	This is not me being conspiratorial.
	All references are available.
	Let me give you some other examples.
	If it was outside of our control, let's say one time.
	Fine.
	I'll give you a perfect example.
	First off, Americans should grow their own stuff.
	It should be more affordable to grow things in the United States than anywhere else in the world.
	And there's tons of farmland.
	Of course there is.
	And the Green New Deal, to answer your question, if we did pass it today, it would just take more money from you for them to waste.
	Of course.
	And make you spend more money on things that you can't afford.
	Right.
	Which are now at the highest cost.
	And it would move you all into big cities.
	That's a big part of the plan, right?
	Absolutely, 100%.
	Move everybody into big cities.
	Well, that's worked like a charm!
	How's New York doing?
	How's Detroit doing?
	How's Los Angeles doing?
	How's San Francisco doing?
	How's St.
	Louis doing?
	How's INSERT CITY HERE over the last three years?
	Well, they're very affordable too.
	Yes, that's what's good.
	They're nightmares and costly.
	Exactly.
	It's a cost-effective nightmare.
	Yeah, it's great.
	That's what happens is really just... Four grand a month.
	That's the new Freddy Krueger film.
	They have a guy attack you on your way to work.
	It's great.
	Yeah.
	Beautiful.
	The new Freddy Krueger is he just shows up in your dreams and just gives you the new mortgage rate.
	You owe me this.
	Is that 18%?
	You're lucky it's not 20%.
	Yes.
	Hey, want to refinance?
	No!
	So, reverse mortgage.
	We should grow our own stuff, that goes without saying.
	But let me use an example, cherries.
	I come from Michigan, I spend a lot of time in northern Michigan.
	Cherries are a very persnickety crop.
	So, one year when I was living in Michigan, there was just an act of God where the cherries froze.
	So what happened is it thawed, cherries froze.
	Cherries require a long, slow, thawing winter.
	So it's a perfect example.
	If you have good, consistent cherry yields, there cannot be catastrophic climate change in that area.
	Because it's not, requires extreme cold, requires extreme warm, it requires cold winters that are long and moderately thawing.
	And there have been record cherry yields.
	But one year, what happened is the cherries thawed, then they froze.
	And we lost them.
	Okay?
	Now, that'd be one thing.
	That's an act of God.
	But, in the years when there are record yields, the government forces these farmers to dump them.
	So much that there's an annual cherry festival.
	You can look this up in northern Michigan.
	They want to make it happen on like the July 4th weekend because Michael Moore has some gay film festival.
	And what happens is, With no Michiganders.
	Yeah, with no Michiganders there.
	Such a scumbag.
	And he's like, I'm one of you!
	And he lives on, what is it, Emerald Crystal Lake?
	Emerald Lake?
	Turquoise Lake?
	Yeah, he has a gigantic home nowhere near.
	Oh, is it Torch Lake?
	Torch Lake!
	Torch Lake.
	Yeah, Torch Lake.
	So they have the Cherry Festival in Michigan.
	And because they don't farm the cherries until later in the year, they have to import cherries from Florida or sometimes places, I believe, like Slovenia, maybe Slovakia.
	But here's the thing.
	In the years when there are record yields, you can't say, good, I'll take my cherries and I'll freeze them and I'll use them for next year's cherry festival.
	You are now committing a crime.
	The government forces you to dump cherries.
	The same thing with milk.
	If you have milk, you have a surplus of milk.
	You're not allowed to keep it.
	You have to dump it.
	The same thing with crops, corn, wheat.
	Guess what?
	The government says you have to dump it.
	Why?
	Well, a lot of people don't realize this because of the big lobbyists with, yes, Big Farm, not Big Pharma, Big Farm because they want to fix prices due to the international exchange that takes place.
	Aren't there homeless people in this country?
	Just feed them cherries, milk, and extra corn and wheat and instead we dump it.
	So it would be an act of God if it just happened one or two years But on the years where we have more than we need, the government says, I'm sorry, you can't keep that.
	We have to make sure the prices are fixed.
	Why?
	It's for the greater good.
	And then what happens when there's a shortage is, well, now we're just going to have to raise prices because there's not enough.
	Why don't you stockpile?
	That's an Aesop fable about storing for the winter.
	You'll learn it when you're six.
	Here's something even worse.
	You know who has the stockpiles?
	Of all of these crops, of all of these, you know, corn, wheat, maize, which I don't know what that means when they say it in the United States because maize means corn in French so I always get confused.
	China has more than half of that across the globe.
	Wonderful.
	Wonderful.
	So we dump our own cherries, we dump our own produce, we dump our own crops.
	And then China stocks up, so we're dependent on them.
	Oh, isn't that a treat?
	Huh.
	It's almost like the PPE shortage because the former administration didn't stock up.
	We didn't learn the lesson on that.
	Why the hell do we do this?
	Like, I didn't know even about the cherry thing until today when we were talking.
	Well, they say it's because it keeps the prices at a point where the farmers, because they care about the farmers, the little guys that are paying three times for fertilizer right now, keeps the prices at a point where they can actually make a living.
	God forbid you just let them grow and sell what they grow.
	And you know what the solution will be?
	They'll come in and they'll try and help subsidize fertilizer now.
	They'll say, well, we've got to step in and we've got to subsidize it.
	More money.
	Just like, let's create the subprime loan market.
	Then they'll say, well, we've got to come in and we've got to bail these people out.
	It's from the problem that you created!
	Oh yeah, keep doing that to the farmer and see what he ends up making with fertilizer.
	Right, yeah, exactly.
	Like, they're making a ton of money anyway.
	Increasing from $200 and something to $900, that's insane for them.
	You don't understand that.
	That's like taking a margin that's 5 or 10% at the end of the year and saying, we're going to cut that in, not in half, because you're taking profit away from them, you're probably going to take almost all of it.
	Yeah.
	Right?
	Or your prices are going to have to skyrocket.
	But that guy from Wisconsin is paying four times what he paid last year.
	That's insane.
	You want to pay four times for the product?
	Not to mention what he has to pay for in helmet fees just to knock his head against the wall.
	That's true.
	Well and then Robert Wright comes out and says these companies should just absorb the price increases.
	They shouldn't be passing on higher costs to the consumer and that's the real problem.
	It's these corporate greedy people out there.
	You're an economist?
	You worked for the United States government at one point?
	Why does it apply to the farm?
	Why does it apply to these corporations being greedy?
	And not to you!
	Government representatives?
	I've never understood that.
	Why is it greedy for me, Dave Gerald, to want to feed our own family, to keep our own money, but not for you to take it?
	So you can believe in all of this.
	As you experience this, and look, I wish I had better news for you.
	I really do.
	The only good news is if you've been watching this show, if you're a member of Mug Club, you've been hearing us for a long time say, you need to be an autonomous human being.
	You cannot rely on the government.
	Be ready for an emergency.
	I'm not saying there's going to be some kind of nuclear holocaust fallout, but what I am saying is you do need to diversify your supply, your personal supply.
	100%.
	You need to be ready to be comfortable with the uncomfortable.
	If you're prepared for that, you are better off than most people in this country.
	But let's assume, because right now the talking points they want to send out, the narrative that they want to set—I hate to you, I was looking for any word other than the narrative to set, but in this case it's entirely appropriate—is that all of this is outside of our control.
	So let's say you believe this is an act of some cruel god—nature's cruelest trick—that, or, or, Due to international policy, which by the way goes all the way back to installing a government in Ukraine, due to international policy sanctions, due to tariffs that we placed, and due to international relationships, due to a global government and us not being autonomous because that would be racist, we've now
	All of a sudden cut off a good portion of our supply not only of food but of energy to transport the food the fertilizer to of course obviously help create said food which affects all of our farmers therefore you negatively and you're going to see gas prices you're going to see food shortages and the same government when there is a surplus rather than allowing it to be passed on to you has systematically told Our agriculturalists that they need to dump them or face penalty.
	So it's an act of God, it's chance, or maybe there's something more sinister at foot.
	And I don't think that it's some meeting that takes place in a hotel.
	I think you get people like Joe Biden who haven't lived in the private sector.
	That man has not earned a dollar in the private sector since Carter was president.
	People like that who get into power never relinquish it and they just seek to gain more power.
	That's all it is.
	That's all the conspiracy is.
	For a sociopath to be a sociopath, we usually think that that means this person has to have bodies in their Nancy Pelosi ice cream freezer.
	They don't.
	They can store a lot of bodies.
	They just need to be selfish.
	They just need to not care about how their actions affect other people.
	And you can be a sociopath, and the damage is just as bad.
	And right now, you do have a country run by sociopaths.
	And when I say that, I'm not just saying it because I don't like people.
	I'm saying it because of the results of their behavior.
	And you bear the brunt of it.
	$5,200 a month, and sorry!
	Sorry, West Africa!
	Hope you can deal with your record starvation deaths.
	Speaking of deaths, and not to be a downer, we'll get to some other stuff here, but you know I did this segment as, well, C. Matheson did this academic conference on Fat Pride.
	So I have to be careful, I'm just going to tell you that this is very sad.
	Actually, when we did this seminar, this was actually about a year and a half ago, this conference, C. Matheson was this transgender fat pride activist, you can go and watch the video, we'll link it below, who was peer reviewed and was asked to peer review.
	And one of the featured lecturers at this conference was Dr. Kat Pausey.
	I thought it was Cat Paws.
	No, it didn't want to be too on the whiskers.
	So Cat Paws A died March 25th, so just recently here, since the video was released.
	A fat pride activist at this conference.
	She was eulogized in New Zealand's The Gossip Gist.
	Here's a quote, Massey University academic Dr. Cat Paws A died suddenly.
	Look, you can look up a picture.
	This is someone who was tremendously overweight.
	And they're saying they have no idea.
	I'm pretty sure that I can guess as to what contributed to it.
	I know very few details except that our darling friend died in her sleep last night. I'm so very
	sad and I know that many in academic and union circles will be shocked and saddened too. Look,
	you can look up a picture. This is someone who was tremendously overweight. Yeah. And they're
	saying they have no idea. I'm pretty sure that I can guess as to what contributed to it. I hope
	that you understand something. You can read more examples of this with thousands of transgender
	individuals, by the way.
	42% attempted suicide rate.
	With fat pride, with the modern gender theory, with putting kids on puberty blockers, sure, we make fun of it.
	Sure, of course, we have to draw attention to how absurd it is.
	But ultimately, it's because it's harmful.
	And it's not only harmful to society, it's harmful to these people.
	We're treating these people as though they're all brave and beautiful, when really, the reason that we do what we do is, it's like drug addiction.
	It's not good to tell someone, yeah, keep, no, you know what, keep eating.
	Fat pride is fine.
	No, you know what, yeah, cut off your penis and, you know, we'll cut in a, you know, we'll cut in a Jack Pumpkin Tim Burton vagina.
	It'll look great.
	We'll, you know what, no, yeah, yeah, we'll suture up your vagina and put on a, and we'll put you on puberty blockers that we know that, of course, could cause hormonal imbalances and lead to increased cancer.
	But no, no, no, it's whatever you want to do.
	This is the problem that we're running into.
	So my heart does go out to the family of Dr. Cat Pauze.
	And I wish that I could have, I wish I could say that I didn't see this coming, but that's exactly why we do what we do.
	So if people think that the left has a corner on empathy, sure, maybe we go a little too far with the joke sometime.
	Sure, going undercover and what I will say is a masterful troll job may offend some people.
	The left's policies create death. From food shortages to not only abortion,
	right, all the way up until and including birth, to praising fat pride, to praising modern gender
	theory. If you can't see the direct, the direct, a very straight through line to the leftist
	idea of not disciplining your children, you're looking at the world incorrectly. Hey, no, you know
	what?
	You're massively overweight.
	It's not healthy.
	Hey, you know what?
	No, it's actually not a good thing for you.
	You just think that you're a boy, but you're not.
	How do I know?
	Well, it's biology.
	We can test it.
	Hey, no, you can't have that cookie.
	Just letting people have whatever they want is not compassion.
	You end up with kids who are monsters.
	And then those monsters become presidents and congresswomen and professors.
	That's why we do what we do.
	Yeah.
	All right.
	You know what, actually, Gerald, before we move on to Hunter Biden, this has been bothering me all show.
	You're supposed to be wearing a shirt from the merch shop to plug it to CrowderShop.com.
	Terrible shirt.
	Take it off.
	Do you have one?
	You look like a hobo.
	You can take off your shirt.
	I got a merch shirt for you.
	It's in your contract.
	You have to be able to promote the show.
	I agree.
	Oh!
	Oh!
	What's wrong?
	Oh no!
	Oh my god!
	No!
	What is happening?
	Oh my god!
	What?
	What is this?
	Why would you... Why is it different colors?
	What are you, a mutt?
	First off, here's your shirt.
	I'm not Italian.
	What part are you?
	Is it every... Don't call me Fredo!
	It's disgusting.
	You should think about Manscaped.
	Oh, I'm never having dinner with... Have you thought about manscaping?
	Here, you know what?
	Here, I think I have a... Here's a... Here, can you catch this?
	It's gonna be heavy.
	Oh, nice catch!
	I feel the acid in my mouth from the pre-vomit.
	Consider using that trimmer.
	Oh, look at this guy.
	Try it.
	Yes.
	Manscaped.
	What's the website?
	I don't even know.
	Oh, manscaped.com.
	Go to manscaped.com, use your promo code Crowder for 20% off your order.
	Free worldwide shipping.
	Put on a shirt!
	Oh, okay.
	Sorry.
	Yes!
	Well, you said try it!
	Not right now!
	Fine, fine, fine.
	Not in the company of decent human beings.
	So, uh, Manscaped is actually a sponsor to the show.
	I've actually used their product for a little bit.
	Um, you know why?
	When I had surgery, they had to shave everything before the surgery, so I had to use a trimmer.
	I said, what's a good trimmer?
	The Manscaped trimmer.
	And then, uh, it grew back gray.
	Yeah, well, once you do that at our age, there's not your old color under there.
	No, I think it was the stress, though, of the actual, of the surgery.
	Well, mine comes back gray.
	Does it come back gray?
	I've shaved the old parts.
	Yeah, you ever, I don't know if I should say this, but you ever come across, because you can shave all parts, by the way, you ever come across your first testicular hair?
	I have, that's great.
	You see it in the mirror, it's like you hear the theme from Schindler's List.
	You look at it, you hear Taps playing faintly in the background.
	This thing has a nice little guard.
	Yeah, it does, actually.
	You know what, you guys let me know.
	Obviously, I don't trim my body hair, look, but that being said, when I do heavy squats, I have to wrap my knees, and I used to have a hairless patch only around my knee and the back of my knee, so I use the trimmer to just sort of even it out, because it looks weird.
	It looks like I'm wearing a stripe.
	You could really full-time sell again.
	Yes!
	So, they do.
	They have all kinds of great products, and they have the balls to sponsor this show, and you can have more cleanly shaven balls if you want to sponsor the show.
	The Lawn Mower 4.0 is great.
	Just go to manscape.com, Crowder promo code, 20% off your order.
	Also, by the way, me and Dave, we're going to be on tour May 14th, Tulsa, Oklahoma, June 18th, Pikes Peak Center in Colorado Springs.
	There are a few tickets left at both of them.
	Definitely worth it.
	Just go on Instagram, see the reviews, and Dave is going to be April 8th, April 9th in Joliet, Illinois, and then the Genesee Theater in Waukegan, Illinois.
	But more importantly, since we've gotten through these plugs, is Jeffrey Epstein's Pedophile Island just went up for sale.
	Really?
	Lord.
	Yeah.
	Really?
	And what would you guess the price tag?
	Free?
	That's what I was gonna say.
	Does it come with bleach?
	It's just haunted, right?
	If I buy Pedophile Island, do I also get Snake Island so that they can destroy Pedophile Island?
	I would hope so.
	What do you do with it?
	Price tag, and I think they're a little lofty, 125 million dollars.
	I don't, I don't know, I don't think that's lofty.
	I think islands should probably go for a little more than that.
	Yeah, but thousands of people weren't typically raped on those islands.
	That's true.
	Well, yeah, okay.
	I was, okay, I was a little confused, but we actually have, we've, we acquired some, if I'm not mistaken, exclusive footage from the auction of where the island was.
	Oh, it starts at 125.
	Yeah.
	Okay.
	All right, our next item up for grabs is Jeffrey Epstein's Gently Used Sex Island.
	I hope you're all excited about that.
	I know I am.
	We will begin the bidding at $125,000,000.
	That's $125,000,000.
	Now, do I have $125,000,000?
	Do I have $125,000,000?
	$125,000,000?
	$125,000,000?
	Oh, Bill Clinton!
	I just want the picture of me in the blue dress back for my mantle.
	OK.
	All right, do I get $130,000,000?

	That place is my Disneyland.
	Ooh, wow.
	Just can't stop with the mRNA injections at Bill Gates.
	Really?
	I had a feeling he was going to buy it.
	Yeah.
	I thought he was going to buy it and then, by the way, he's not going to pay for it.
	I doubt it.
	He's going to steal it.
	That's what he does to get his money.
	Yeah, that's exactly what he does to get his money.
	Gosh.
	He's probably going to be like, yeah, here's an IOU.
	That's as good as money.
	He's what an evil Disney character used to be.
	Right.
	Yeah, but now he's the hero.
	Now he just looks like he drives his Subaru to softball practice.
	Yes, exactly.
	Tells you to eat soybean.
	And loses.
	Why does every billionaire have a terrible haircut?
	Have you ever noticed that?
	You have a billion dollars.
	I think it's because that's how they get a billion dollars, is they're frugal.
	They bought a Flowbee?
	Fucking my will to live!
	Joke's on you.
	I just use a popcorn bowl.
	Yeah, I just hold my head sideways and cut it straight.
	Alright, we were going to talk about something going on in sports, but let me just hit this and then we'll go to Mug Club chat, which is always fun.
	LottoWithCutter.com slash Mug Club.
	And honestly, I don't plug these things that much with you because...
	You know, you always feel dirty plugging something.
	But just, it's the way we make revenue.
	MugClub.
	BloodEarthCounter.com.
	That's MugClub.
	$69 if you're students, veterans, active military.
	$99 you get the whole, you get the show.
	No censored content.
	You get an additional one hour of show each day, as well as the entire Blaze catalog.
	Okay.
	So let's move on to Hunter Biden.
	And a lot of people are just saying, oh, Hunter Biden.
	Okay, the laptop.
	Sure, we know that.
	That's not news.
	But there's more to it than that.
	Remember how we were just talking about this, and earlier this month, former Vice President Joe Biden, he was talking tough on the Russian oligarchs in Amy's Diner.
	He was going to take it to Russian oligarchs.
	Our interest is to maintain the strongest unified economic impact campaign on Putin in all history, and I think we're well on the way to doing that.
	In the State of the Union address, I announced that the Department of Justice is going after The crimes of Russian oligarchs, the Attorney General spoke to that earlier, and who line their pockets with Russian people's money while Ukraine and the people are hiding in subways from missiles that are being fired indiscriminately in Russian cities.
	Fact check!
	They were hiding in Kuzno's.
	Now, we all know... Did you see it?
	He said they're hiding from missiles that are being fired.
	In Russian cities.
	Are any of the citizens hiding in Russia?
	No, I think you meant Ukraine, sir.
	You have your countries confused yet again.
	Well, you say tomato, he says dementia.
	Now.
	Here's the thing.
	The laptop has been confirmed true.
	And by laptop, I mean, like, three.
	Incorrect.
	There's a Musketeers of laptops.
	Yes, exactly.
	One for all, and all for child porn.
	Yes.
	Oh, no.
	Now, you know who else raked in millions of dollars?
	Don't get me started on the man behind the iron hard drive.
	Yes.
	The man on the iron hard drive.
	Indeed.
	This is that movie, they just add a fourth musketeer.
	You can't do that.
	You're not welcome.
	You're not welcome here.
	It ruins all, it's three!
	Three's the magic number here!
	Now, you know who else raked in millions of dollars?
	Not Oliver Plash.
	From foreign entities and Russian oligarchs?
	Hunter Biden!
	He had three and a half million dollars from Elena Botarina, the wife of the former Moscow mayor.
	I believe that qualifies.
	Yeah, maybe.
	China went right back to Russia, didn't it?
	Yes!
	Well, Charlie Boy, I certainly think that qualifies.
	Four million dollars was paid to Hunter and Devin Archer while they were serving on the board of Burisma, if you guys don't necessarily know.
	Something something Ukraine.
	Hunter had a lot to contribute to that board.
	Yes, he did.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	He threw a few guns behind their grade school dumpsters.
	Stupid.
	And when people say, oh, Hunter Biden's not president, he's not the only one who was involved in these deals, not to mention how much of a liability he is, not to mention his father, the former vice president, currently serving as whatever-in-chief, Joe Biden, lied for him and said that the stories weren't true.
	Now, Hunter, here's what's also important, not just the kiddie porn, not just the crack pipe, not just the smoking parmesan cheese, Hunter had these incredible, he had lucrative business dealings with, um, is it, is it Yee?
	Yixing Ming.
	Is that how you pronounce it?
	Yixing Ming.
	Yixing Ming?
	The chairman of the Chinese energy company CEFC.
	Now keep in mind, CEFC was a major player in President Xi's landmark, the Belt and Road Initiative.
	That was one of the biggest projects.
	Tighten your belt because we're building roads and we have no money to feed you?
	Don't you love how they always tell you to tighten your belt and their leaders are fat pricks?
	It's true.
	Yeah, their belt's tightened, but it's not because they're doing it.
	Yeah, those tangs are hanging on for dear life.
	Tighten yours, too.
	We just keep sewing large labels into the XXXL shirts.
	Oh, thanks.
	Yes, thank you for telling me that we're all in this together, Kim Jong-un and Xi Jinping.
	Thank you for telling us that... We have to invent sizes for you.
	No, still large!
	Yeah, it would be great if you could have a seamstress on staff, but you killed the only person who could create a 52 short stupid.
	Too short and ridiculous?
	I need fur collar!
	Do you see you?
	Just kill me.
	I'm fine with it.
	So Hunter, he had business dealings.
	The mayor's wife, Russia, Burisma, were now up to, you know, seven, eight million, give or take.
	The Chinese Communist Party had numerous dealings with Chinese nationals linked to the CCP.
	Altogether, and this is from a report, you can read this right now at senate.gov, resulted in what they said were millions of dollars in cash flow.
	Now here's my thing.
	Okay.
	So you have Burisma.
	Okay.
	So you have the millions of dollars with the former Russian mayor's wife.
	Okay.
	So now you have the Russian Communist Party, sorry, the Chinese Communist Party, and you have this money, many, many, many millions of dollars, right?
	This is at senate.gov.
	So this investigation was going on for a long time, but anybody who knows anything about the process of investigations is, you reveal some information pretty quickly.
	It didn't take long.
	You just had to ask for Hunter Biden's Ally Bank records.
	By the way, his password was 12345.
	Crack!
	And it's pretty easy to figure out.
	There were four, there were, no, not 40, there were 50.
	50.
	50 former Intel officials. 50.
	Claiming that the Hunter Biden laptop story, remember?
	That it was Russian disinformation.
	Just in case you needed a nail into the bullshit coffin of this idea of Russia, Russia, Russia, Donald Trump.
	Guess what?
	Nothing.
	Donald Trump had nothing to do with Russia.
	Former Vice President Joe Biden?
	Well, we see millions of dollars, 10% for the big guy.
	Former Vice President Biden's son?
	Well, we see tens of millions of dollars, not only Russians, not only the Ukraine, but the Communist Chinese Party, who by the way have the world's greatest supply, or sorry, surplus of grains and produce, to whom we will now be beholden.
	So 50 members!
	Of our intelligence officials.
	Let me just be clear about what that means.
	You could have people from the CIA, the State Department, you could have them from the FBI, you could have them from the NSA.
	We don't know exactly who they are because a lot of them are not.
	50 intelligence officials said, no, no, this is Russian disinformation.
	Is treason still a thing?
	Genuinely.
	You either have to believe that the CIA, FBI, the State Department, they are all absolute morons.
	The only fact-checking they would have needed to be able to do is just watch this show.
	I'll get to that in a second.
	And they said it was Russian disinformation.
	You're gonna tell me they weren't doing the Democratic Party's bidding?
	When that was a story that came directly from the Democratic Party?
	You guys all know about the Steele dossier.
	You guys all know about Hillary Clinton paying off operatives.
	We all know that this is true.
	This is not even something that's being denied.
	The media has confirmed it.
	But our intelligence officials Who are supposed to be looking out for the security of you, lied to you about arguably the greatest liability that any sitting president has ever been baggaged with.
	Is treason still a thing?
	I don't know.
	Does it require some blue face paint and a funny hat going on a tour of the Capitol?
	I don't know.
	You guys comment below.
	And if you comment, also smash that like button if you can because that helps with the algorithm.
	And of course, YouTube will try and, for the same reason they got rid of the dislike button, they'll try and make sure that nobody sees this.
	And I'm getting a little worked up so we'll go to Mug Club in a second.
	Well, are you incompetent or compliant?
	I mean, that's really what it breaks down to.
	What do you want to be called?
	Because you're one or the other.
	Let's go with incompetent.
	I'm going to go with incompetent.
	They started out targeting Donald Trump with the Russia disinformation stuff.
	All of these agencies came out and said, yep, this information is accurate.
	Yep, we're going to act on this information.
	Turns out that was not true.
	Then it comes down to an election that's really close, and this comes out when it was absolutely relevant and could change the election.
	No, no, we know for a fact it will change the swing states.
	Think about how scary this is.
	Because I'm going to get to a clip of Rudy Giuliani on our show where they show the Hunter Biden laptop for the very first time on air.
	At this point, the FBI, they weren't even interested.
	They came in and took everything from Rudy Giuliani's house except for the Hunter Biden hard drive.
	Yes, that's true.
	Before the election, you had Facebook, Twitter, right?
	Well, Twitter completely removed the story.
	Yeah.
	Facebook and Instagram throttled the story.
	We saw direct results here on YouTube where they would throttle the story if we were talking about Hunter Biden because they said they were trying to cut down on disinformation and conspiracy theories.
	And at this point, the intelligence officials said it was Russian disinformation.
	So, the FBI, CIA, people looking out for you, they say this is disinformation.
	Then you have the biggest companies in the history of the world, Alphabet, YouTube, Google, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, really five companies who control the flow of 95% of information across the globe, let alone this country, say, all right, we're taking our marching orders from the
	authoritative sources that are the intelligence officials.
	They're telling us it's Russian disinformation.
	And so poof, like a fart in the wind, it disappears before election.
	And now everybody is saying we were wrong about that.
	Are there any consequences?
	Any consequences whatsoever.
	This is why.
	It's not about money.
	When Bernie Sanders tries to talk about the ruling class.
	It's not about money anymore.
	You have plenty of billionaires who are very charitable.
	I know some.
	They're good people.
	They're upstanding members of their community.
	It is about the elites who seek nothing but power.
	That's the them and you.
	That's what?
	Washington D.C., the White House, the media entertainment industrial complex, our intelligence community, and big tech.
	Now, how do we connect these dots?
	The Oscars were just sponsored by Pfizer and Biotech, I believe, and guess what?
	They have complete liability, right?
	Protection from the CDC.
	And you're not allowed to speak out against vaccines.
	You're not allowed to speak about accurate statistics on COVID.
	We had a video banned.
	We were suspended from YouTube for two weeks.
	That's why you go over to Rumble.
	You go over to Mug Club.
	We had clips of our show removed.
	Or we can see directly throttled or slapped with warnings when we were talking about the Hunter Biden laptop story, which was banned at the time on Twitter, on Facebook, on Instagram, based on the authoritative information of bullshit artists from the CIA and FBI.
	Are you starting to get the picture?
	All they needed to fact-check was watch this show.
	You can see this right now.
	The media is acknowledging that this is correct.
	Rudy Giuliani, former mayor Rudy Giuliani, on our show on a live stream, revealed the laptop for the very first time and it shocked us.
	Have you seen the pictures?
	Have you seen the pictures of him with the crack pipe?
	Oh wow.
	Does he at least look, like, cool?
	Unfortunately, I can't show them to you right now, but this is the hard drive they're on.
	Oh my gosh.
	Oh my word.
	Let me ask you this, Mayor Giuliani, how did you get that hard drive?
	Because this is the crux of the New York Post article being throttled on social media.
	They said that you've been working with a Russian agent, or that it's entirely false.
	Actually, I got it directly from Putin.
	He sent it to me.
	You are not going to believe who likes hash pipe.
	Putin sent it to me, and he said, actually he just wanted a couple bottles of vodka in return.
	So let me just walk you through this.
	That happened on the show, okay?
	And at this time, the story was still being declared misinformation.
	I don't know if you remember the sequence of events.
	It was banned from all social media, and the media didn't talk about it.
	It was a blackout.
	We know that it would have affected swing states by polling voters of swing states.
	That's how terrifying it is.
	What did they do?
	At first, they tried to say that it was illegal, that Rudy Giuliani hacked a computer.
	Now, Hunter Biden was so high that he just left it at a computer repair shop.
	Then they tried to say it was Russian disinformation.
	That's what they stuck with through election.
	Until the record number of votes for the most popular former vice president ever, Joe Biden, came in, and then afterwards they say, you know what, sorry, we were wrong about that.
	Contrast with if we get one fact incorrect on this show, one, and sometimes if we even get them correct, but it's damaging enough that YouTube doesn't want it, we lose our livelihoods forever.
	Are you starting to see the picture?
	Are you starting to see the imbalance of power?
	And by the way, We don't have direct ties with the FBI, CIA, or the State Departments.
	We don't have that protection.
	Good thing Susan Wojcicki has them on speed dial and Jack Dorsey for crying out loud.
	We're at a point in this country where Something's gotta change, and I don't blame you.
	I don't blame you for being mad.
	We try to be happy warriors on this show, and I am.
	Generally, I think that the world is a better place tomorrow than it was yesterday.
	But something has to change.
	Hopefully there's a red wave that happens in the midturb sponsored by Kotex, and hopefully everyone out there starts taking an active role in your community.
	And you can start by just leaving a comment below, smash that like button, but right now we're going to talk with you on chat on Mug Club, and get your thoughts, which I'm sure are probably a little bit fired up.
	YouTube, you know how I feel about you.
