	🎵 HAHAHA
	Hello.
	Bye.
	Bye.
	Hey, before you watch the intro here, I just want to let you know that Tuesday, because it used to fall on different days of the week, was the last Thursday before Halloween.
	This coming Tuesday is the Louder With Crutter Annual Halloween Spooktacular It's corny and we like it that way.
	We have costume contest rules.
	You can post pictures of your Halloween costume.
	Not contest.
	I'm still, I have a little congestion.
	You can send in pictures of your Halloween costume.
	Send it to me on Instagram or on Twitter with your mug in hand.
	We have to know that your mug has to be there.
	We have to know that it's a costume not from last year.
	Using the hashtag Spooktacular.
	The hashtag is Spooktacular Tuesday and it's usually the most I will say it's the day of the year that is an affront to those with sensibilities of good taste.
	Enjoy.
	Alright, Iceman, how are you?
	Why are you discriminating against me?
	Well, just so you know, I can't hear a whole lot today.
	My, uh, championship college swimmer for the women's swim team.
	That makes sense.
	And then we have, uh, Yuk.
	We have... We have...
	The tale of the dementia patient riddled president.
	I knew a black.
	A.
	No.
	Here's Johnny.
	No.
	I call it the tale of the YouTube trap infection.
	Tony.
	I'm scared.
	You You
	Oh glad I didn't even do the sip because I was so rattled by the fact that between intros you guys saw a nice view of
	my Well... That's what the fans want.
	I apologize.
	And for people who... Before you start suspecting, this is Tylenol cold and flu.
	Which, I'm mostly fine, by the way, but I took the wrong thing-ish.
	I took the Alka-Seltzer.
	There's day and night.
	I took the day.
	What?
	At night.
	How do you mess that up?
	I haven't slept.
	So, we have a lot to get to today.
	Obviously, look, there's been this incredibly tragic and just overwhelming shooting that has happened in Maine.
	Here's the truth.
	It is 10-15 Eastern, 9-14 Central Godstown.
	We don't know everything, but we know a lot.
	We know enough to know that the media is incorrect, so we're going to be talking about that.
	Something that I've wanted to talk about, we teased this yesterday.
	The truth about the Gaza water shortage because a lot of people want you to believe that Israel is just stopping water from going into Gaza.
	But this is actually something that will hopefully be a reference piece for you because it's something that comes up every couple of years.
	The idea that the Palestinian people don't have access to water that that's being shut down.
	It's not true.
	There are a lot of myths out there, and we really wanted to make sure that the references were available for you today.
	Also, in a more current format, why nobody wants Palestinian refugees.
	People talk about Israel, we've talked about Egypt, but how about we go through Syria, let's go through Jordan, let's go through Lebanon, let's go through Saudi Arabia.
	I already mentioned Egypt.
	You corrected me in run through saying that there was no access to the Red Sea in Egypt.
	No, I thought you said dead.
	And I was going, hold on a second.
	I don't know a lot of things, but I know shark attacks.
	And I know that there were shark attacks in Egypt and the Red Sea.
	They were really, really bad.
	There were really bad shark attacks.
	So we'll get to that and more.
	And of course, look, people will say, oh, it's trite.
	But yeah, our thoughts and our prayers really do go out to the families who've been affected.
	All you can really do is protect your own and pray for justice.
	So let me ask you a question first, right off the bat.
	Do you think there's anything suspicious about this main shooting?
	And how have you seen the media cover it?
	All right.
	Number two, Gerald A.C.
	You know what?
	There's a cup that fell over.
	I gotta fix it.
	Okay, go ahead.
	Fine.
	I'll ask the question.
	Gerald A., how are you doing?
	I'm fine, Stephen.
	Thank you for asking.
	I really appreciate that.
	There's no access to the Red Sea from Egypt.
	So listen, this is not the only thing I need to be admonished for, Tim, if you can make sure that this is ready.
	I said desalinization and it's desalination.
	I asked you.
	And you asked me and you trusted me, more importantly, and I led you astray and so I need to be admonished for that.
	Also, I don't need to be admonished for the Red Sea Dead Sea thing because everybody thought you said Dead Sea!
	Why would I say Dead Sea?
	You didn't say shark attack first!
	There are no shark attacks in the Dead Sea.
	You didn't say that!
	They'd be dead!
	Dead sharks.
	Dead sharks don't attack.
	How are you doing?
	That was a Goosebumps Choose Your Own Path book.
	Can't see sharks, don't attack terrorists.
	I'm doing fine.
	I'm actually, I feel great.
	I didn't sleep and I think I'm having that rebound effect of the cortisol.
	Nice!
	So I feel like I can take on the world, but I have a cramp in my neck.
	And when you hear this, you know him, you love him, brings a smile to our face.
	Oh, he's going to be actually Sunday, November 19th at the Bricktown Comedy Club in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
	That's open now.
	You can follow him, see his other dates, on Instagram at Josh underscore Firestein.
	How are you, sir?
	I am good, good.
	No shark attacks.
	No shark attacks?
	Doing good, yeah.
	Yeah.
	Did you know that there's like five attacks swimming in the Red Sea in the span of two weeks?
	Three people died.
	There's a terrorist as well?
	Yeah.
	Oceanic white tips.
	Jacques Cousteau said they're the most dangerous sharks.
	You guys can comment below.
	Fact check me.
	Fact check me on that!
	I welcome it!
	Is that the Red Sea?
	Because all the blood in the water from the shark attacks?
	I guess that's distasteful.
	You better play your cards right if you want to be in that.
	That third chair is a special place.
	We don't joke about shark attacks.
	Oh, sorry.
	Yeah, we do.
	We do.
	A little bit.
	We even have stuff ready for everything today.
	For the Hamas conflict, the shooting.
	We're still going to go in.
	Okay.
	So Tulsa, they have a new club there, right?
	Yeah, new club for the Bricktown chain.
	It's a chain of clubs.
	I do chains.
	I do Olive Garden next week.
	You're the TGI Fridays of comedians?
	Yeah, well I'm doing it for free because when you're there, you're family.
	Yes, exactly.
	Actually, Olive Garden is where Jesus performed his last miracle.
	Is it really?
	The never-ending bread bowl.
	That's all he needed.
	Lord, we get it, but this is crap!
	Bottomless shrimp.
	I'm not hungry.
	I'll pass.
	Oh yeah, bottomless shrimp at the Olive Garden in Utah.
	How good's the shrimp?
	All right, here really quickly before we move on, this is just something to clear the palate, cleanse the palate, sorry.
	There's a TikToker right here.
	Now I get it, you have people, you have the Zoomers at war with the Boomers, and the Boomers at war with the Zoomers, and then you have Generation X, it's just like whatever.
	And then you have Millennials who've kind of been forgotten, but they suck as well.
	This is when people talk about some generations maybe being a little bit out of touch.
	And not having faced struggle.
	And I get it.
	Different generations face different struggles.
	But not this person.
	Here's a TikToker complaining about what we all have known as work.
	I know I'm probably just being so dramatic and annoying.
	This is my first job.
	Like, my first 9-to-5 job after college.
	And I'm in person.
	And I'm commuting in the city and it takes me f***ing forever to get there.
	There's no way I'm going to be able to afford living in the city right now.
	So that's off the table.
	Like, f***ing duh!
	If I was able to walk to work, it'd be fine.
	But I'm not.
	So it literally takes me, like, I leave here, like, I get on the train at 7.30, and I don't get home until, like, 6.15 earliest.
	And then, like, I don't have time to do anything.
	I want to shower, eat my dinner, and go to sleep.
	I don't have time or energy to cook by dinner, either.
	Like, I don't have energy to work out.
	Imagine when you have kids.
	The 9-to-5 schedule in general is crazy.
	Being in the office 9-5, if it was remote, you get off at 5.
	I don't have energy.
	How do you have friends?
	How do you have time to meet a guy?
	I don't know.
	How do you have time for dating?
	I don't have time for anything, and I'm so stressed out.
	And I'm also getting my period, so that's why I want to be sure.
	Ah, there it is.
	Am I being so dramatic?
	It's fine.
	You buried the lead.
	He's just going to have the guys flocking to you.
	Can we put a moratorium on the word crazy for things that aren't crazy?
	It's kind of like awesome.
	They'll say, oh man, this pasta's awesome.
	It's epic!
	No, it's not.
	It's not.
	The wonders of the world are awesome.
	You see, Machu Picchu, that's awesome.
	It's awe-inducing.
	Also, it's crazy.
	9 to 5 is crazy.
	No, you posting this is crazy.
	Pissing down the elevator shaft and claiming you're Jesus, which my neighbor still does, that's crazy.
	Working standardized hours is not crazy.
	And here's something that people need to hear.
	I get it.
	Look, a lot of younger people, and there's validity to it, you want more work-life balance.
	It's the same reason, by the way, that women are paid less than men in general.
	That's 77 cents on the dollar.
	It's just average pay of men versus women.
	Why?
	Because women are smarter in a lot of ways in the way that they approach the workforce.
	They say, well, hold on a second.
	I don't want to be traveling nonstop away from my family, high-risk job, where 94% of workplace deaths are men.
	I don't want to work in a foundry.
	I want to, you know, watch a few toddlers for a few hours, be a public school teacher, and then go home and get three months off.
	And so you make a little bit less because there is balance.
	But here's the thing.
	You want work-life balance?
	You don't get to make six figures.
	You want to make six figures?
	You want to become rich?
	Guess what?
	You don't have as many friends.
	You don't have as much time for friends.
	It's true.
	You get home, you shower, you recover, and then you get back to work.
	And you know what you want to do?
	I don't have time for the gym.
	People here?
	We're in here.
	5 a.m.
	You just have to find a way to fit.
	What are your priorities?
	Is your priority to go out and to hang out with friends at night, or do you want to hit the gym in the morning?
	9 to 5 is crazy?
	I can't live in the city?
	Alright.
	Do you want to get to the point where you can live in the city?
	If that's your priority, then guess what?
	Put in some more hours.
	People think that 9 to 5 is insane and we've moved beyond that.
	Well, guess what?
	The people who add value to their company have not.
	For crying out loud, think about this.
	Do you think any of these folks would want to trade?
	People were working 8 to 6 with a 30-minute lunch break where they would do it 18 stories high on a beam with a lunch pail.
	People are still doing it, by the way.
	Yeah, there are some people still doing it.
	When I was a carpenter, a 10-hour day was normal.
	Yeah.
	I mean, there are perks.
	You get to crack all the ladies.
	Wait till she finds out about graveyard shift.
	Blow her mind.
	I can't even believe there's still graveyards.
	Those people are dead.
	Why don't we just, why do we have to put them, why do we call it a graveyard?
	Just throw them in the trash.
	Yeah.
	I love how she acts like an hour and a half commute, which is not short, is like the worst thing ever.
	Like most people's commute, we can pull a stat on this, what the average commute is for somebody in a big city.
	It's around an hour or so, I think.
	Like that is not completely out of the norm.
	And I was like, huh, 7.30, must be nice.
	Who said that, Tim?
	Wait for kids!
	Do you understand?
	It's because you're selfish.
	And look, I get it.
	You've never had to do any of these things for yourself before and now you're getting hit in the face with the real world and it's not college where you can just sleep in and go party with your friends.
	Got it?
	But this is life!
	Yeah.
	Get used to it and start making adjustments.
	Don't stay up as late if you want to work out.
	Get up early and go work out instead.
	If you want to meet some friends, meet in the city after work, then go home.
	Like, what's the problem here?
	Go work a job, get your money, or, or, or move somewhere that's not the big city.
	Right.
	Where you can have a better work-life balance and you have a 10-minute drive.
	You don't have to live in New York City.
	I'm assuming that's what she's saying, when they say the city.
	Some city.
	I'm assuming New York City.
	Which is a silly place.
	It's just life is choices.
	Life is choices.
	And when people say the American Dream is dead, I go, let's go through your choices.
	What is it that matters to you?
	Now, we do face some different obstacles.
	That's not lost on me.
	I understand that the idea of job permanence, sure, but the job permanence that existed, it only existed with the kind of jobs that these people would never want to work.
	Well, my dad was able to, okay, You think he was gonna bitch about 9-5?
	It was assumed.
	That was a jumping off point.
	Let alone if he wanted to move up.
	Right.
	It's just about choices.
	By the way, if at some point today, because we'll be talking about Hamas, we'll be talking about the shooting going on in Maine.
	These are always sensitive subjects.
	If you're watching on YouTube and you see this...
	Just head on over to Rumble because there's no reason to be watching on YouTube anymore.
	What are you doing with your shirt, Josh?
	There was a beard hair that fell on... You looked like you were tweaking yourself.
	Short and curly.
	It's that girl working 9 to 5.
	New York City.
	Short and curly.
	It's that girl working 9-5.
	Oh my god. Uptown girl.
	Yeah baby.
	Do us a favor and just make sure you're not on camera when you do that.
	It was a beard hair and fell out of my... Yeah, it was.
	In New York City, they have the longest average commute, 80 minutes.
	Yeah.
	She's got a 90 minute commute, so she's 10 minutes above average and she's complaining on TikTok.
	Well, hey, look, if you don't want that and you want a lower cost of living, what, like I'm gonna live in Poughkeepsie?
	Just fine.
	Just, I can't help you.
	Just can someone disable... I'm not for censorship.
	Someone disable her social media so we don't have to listen to it.
	All right.
	She's 10 minutes.
	She's 10 minutes over average.
	I'm 10 minutes under.
	I just, I can't.
	Look.
	Sorry.
	No, look, we don't under, when people say you don't, we don't, she now knows exactly what it's like.
	She can relate to the people of Gaza.
	All right.
	In Maine, horrible event that took place, but it's equally horrible that of course you have people on the left and you have the David Hoggs of the world and whatever, moms against whatever it is today, politicizing it before the bodies even really assume room temperature.
	And to be clear, I used to have a policy where we didn't want to discuss it until all of the information was... We don't have that luxury anymore.
	And we certainly don't have the luxury of not correcting the misinformation as it comes in.
	So, last night, Lewiston, Maine.
	Man, did he went on a shooting spree, you've probably heard this.
	Killed at least 15 people as of the time of this broadcast, injuring what seems to be dozens more.
	Here's a clip.
	At approximately 6.56 this evening, a couple of shooting incidents occurred here with multiple casualties in the city of Lewiston.
	And police are currently searching for a Robert R. Card, 4-4 of 1983, a boat.
	Card is considered armed and dangerous.
	He is a person of interest, however, and that's what we'll label him at moving forward until that changes.
	If people see him, they should not approach Card or make contact with him in any way.
	The shelter-in-place order that currently stands in Lewiston remains.
	A vehicle, which was a vehicle of interest in this incident, was located in Lisbon, and we are now also asking residents in Lisbon to shelter in place.
	Okay.
	They always have to do the same thing.
	Like, don't approach him.
	Really?
	I thought I was gonna ask him to be a pen pal.
	Hey, are you that guy?
	Yeah, are you that guy?
	Oh, this is going to be great for the gram.
	Can I get an autograph?
	Look, there's a silver lining because I get this is a dark day for a lot of people.
	One of the silver linings is the best looking police officer ever is taking this matter seriously.
	He was on CNN today.
	I'm going, why?
	I mean, this guy, it's like Billy Zane walked out or Telly Savalas and he's just squinting.
	Here you go. It's been a long streak. How are the officers doing? Take him out with those baby blues.
	The shooter's screwed.
	He has Kojak after him.
	It looks better than Kojak.
	You mass shooters today have no class.
	You have no decorum.
	Who hates you, baby?
	Now, the situation is still, look, it's developing.
	But I'm glad that that count is on the case.
	It hasn't stopped those on the left from immediately attributing motive and pushing gun control.
	Now, we don't know the motive exactly, but we have some good ideas.
	We'll get into that.
	So right off the bat, Gavin Newsom straight out of Central Casting.
	Couch said, Republicans in Maine rejected a bill this year that would have required a waiting period for firearm purchases.
	They seriously could not fathom waiting 72 hours to buy a gun.
	First off, let me stop you there.
	Yo, what if you're a woman with a restraining order and a man who says, I'm coming for you?
	That happened in New Jersey.
	Remember that?
	Someone had to go through this waiting period for a firearm?
	Got killed.
	Got killed by an ex-lover.
	Hey, do you know why people can't fathom a 72-hour waiting period for a gun?
	Because they have a constitutional right to not have to wait 72 hours from purchasing a gun.
	Sorry, you guys may not like to say it's in bad taste because a shooting just happened.
	I don't give a shit.
	It's a constitutional right.
	Yeah.
	By the way, uh, wouldn't have changed anything with this.
	Gavin, I know you're leading with this because you think that that makes you sound reasonable and that everybody's going to be on your side.
	But when you do that, you're politicizing this situation because this guy was a firearms instructor.
	He wasn't waiting 72 hours to go get the gun.
	He didn't just go buy the gun at a Walmart and then go shoot it up.
	Right.
	He had it at his house.
	And by the way, the only photograph that we have him with a gun is not a pistol, which is what you were talking about right there.
	You're an asshole.
	Pardon my language.
	But I'm being a little direct because you're trying to do what you always do.
	Anyway, there's more to this.
	He went on to say Maine also does not ban assault weapons.
	Define assault weapon.
	Require permits to carry a gun in public.
	Do you mean open carry?
	You know where else they don't?
	Vermont.
	Vermont!
	Unless they've changed it.
	Vermont has the loosest gun laws in the country.
	Why?
	Because they have a lot of hunters.
	So they're carrying their guns around.
	They shouldn't be arrested when cops can abuse their authority.
	What happened to defund the police?
	Hey, how about rather than defund the police, remove power from their hands where they can simply cite you for something that is a constitutional right?
	He said they don't require background checks on all gun sales.
	HORSESHIT!
	Pardon my language today, this is again not for children, that is HORSESHIT!
	That's why we did the campaign, Gift a Gun.
	We took two girls, I'm going to change my mind, to the gun range.
	Hey, let's purchase a firearm.
	They go, oh my god, I can't believe all this paperwork.
	Anyone who has ever purchased a firearm legally, not talking about a Saturday Night Special, out of the back of a van, knows that there is a background check.
	And you can just lie on it, like Hunter Biden did.
	Then you have Gavin Newsom saying, we need to amend the Constitution to prevent tragedies like this.
	There you go.
	Boom.
	Amend the Constitution.
	He said the quiet part out loud.
	Brooklyn dad.
	Everyone's least favorite dad.
	Everyone's least favorite person from Brooklyn.
	Is he really a dad?
	Says, in Maine it's harder to get some cold medicines than it is to get an AR-15.
	Thanks to weak-ass senators like Susan Collins.
	She should have never been re-elected.
	Okay, couple of things.
	It's also harder to get cold medicine in Italy than it is to get anything.
	I don't know if you know this, but you live in the United States.
	I just had a friend, a friend of ours who was in Italy, couldn't get Dayquil.
	Seriously?
	Yeah.
	And the reason it's harder to get some cold medicines, by the way, no one has a problem getting Dimetap, it's if it has, like, ephedrine, or, like, broncade, right?
	Or what's the other one?
	Primatine.
	There are some that are stimulants that are actually banned in sport.
	So they pick some extreme example and try and create a parallel to an AR-15.
	But just remember, Gavin Newsom said we need to amend the Constitution.
	That's the only way to implement any of this bullshit that they actually want.
	David Hogg, in a now-deleted tweet, his PR firm probably told him, ooh, that's not a good look, said, Join me in registering to vote against the Republicans who are enabling these shooters.
	Enabling?
	Enabling.
	By the way, I believe he left that up for only minutes.
	Yes.
	And our team caught it.
	So great job, team.
	Thank you, team.
	Thank God for Time Machine.
	Set the timer, Toolman Tim, for people out there who are confused and saying, what do we know?
	Okay, here's what we know right now.
	Suspect.
	Yes, they got it right.
	The name is Robert Card.
	He is a certified firearms instructor.
	He was a member of the U.S.
	Army Reserves.
	He recently threatened to shoot up a National Guard facility and he reported hearing voices in his head.
	Allegedly, he was committed to a mental health facility for two weeks this summer.
	So what we also know is from these shootings, apparently he shot up at first a bowling alley and then a bar pub slash pool hall.
	Which you're noticing a pattern here.
	Then he shot up a Walmart distribution center, which seems surprising until we realize that said distribution center primarily shipped bowling balls and pool tables.
	So this is a guy who's...
	Hit like if you want to see this scumbag get the death penalty.
	All you enabling Republicans.
	Can we do the expedited death penalty?
	Immediately.
	Somebody sees him trying to go shoot something else and they do the American thing and put this guy out of his misery?
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	I don't want to hear a call for a ceasefire either.
	I want him dead.
	Yeah, exactly.
	I want him dead on set.
	Where's the call for a ceasefire right now?
	It just happens when that goes on in Israel.
	This is worse than a Halloween movie.
	Like a Michael Myers movie.
	Yeah, it's terrible.
	You know, this happened actually in Canada.
	It wasn't as many people dead, but there was a guy in the Maritimes.
	He had a shotgun, and he was just walking through a neighborhood shooting people.
	Really?
	It went on for days, but they knew where he was.
	They just couldn't stop him, because no one had a gun.
	That's crazy.
	Yeah.
	They were going to the police?
	Yeah.
	Send a Mountie.
	Let's go!
	He's got a nine horseback.
	They need to be watered.
	They have to get their salt lick.
	I don't know.
	I don't know a lot about the equestrian culture.
	I just know that they like salt lick.
	Yes.
	I don't know what a salt lick is, but it sounds- It's just salt.
	It's a big thing of salt, and the horses lick it.
	Sounds like something about Dead Sea.
	Yes.
	That Gerald couldn't identify in a map.
	Jeez.
	He's like, what's that?
	Is that a lake?
	No!
	red hair was given jayla what i was a moses that's why they were lost for four
	years at the at the Seriously, isn't this just tired at this point?
	Comment, and by the way, hit the like button if you're watching because it helps with the algorithm and people out there, they don't know what's actually happening with this shooting.
	They're just going to get the propaganda.
	Look, Gavin Newsom said it, the only way to implement what it is that they want is to amend the Constitution, is to change the Constitution.
	Don't say that.
	Don't say that.
	To get rid of the Second Amendment.
	When he says amend the Constitution, he doesn't mean like, put a little bullet point in, like, hey, we're gonna have anoth- GET.

	PERIOD.
	NO.
	GUNS.
	By the way, do you want to live in Israel with no guns?
	We've talked about this.
	This is what happens when you have no guns.
	People can go knocking from door to door to door that are criminals that get guns.
	Because they always find a way.
	They tend not to obey the rules.
	And we help pay for guns to get in the hands of citizens in Ukraine.
	Yep.
	Just not here.
	Just not here.
	Just not here in the United States.
	Hey, by the way, before we move on to anything else, there's a new Speaker of the House!
	Really?
	That's about the energy I expected in the room.
	Mike Johnson.
	Mike Johnson from Louisiana.
	And it was announced yesterday, and with the official announcement, no one was actually more surprised than Mike Johnson.
	Mr. Representative.
	Mr. Johnson, wake up.
	You're the new Speaker of the House, sir.
	Yeah.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	That's about all we have on that.
	I will tell you, I was like, a guy who nobody really knows, that's probably a compromise nobody's happy with, but then Bill Kristol lost his mind on Twitter like, this guy didn't give enough money to Ukraine!
	So I like him now.
	Okay.
	Billy Kristol?
	No, no, no.
	The Lesser Crystal.
	Like Mr. Saturday Night?
	No!
	He does a great Sammy Davis thing.
	Yeah, the former Republican Bill Crystal?
	Yeah, former Republican Bill Crystal.
	He's like Ana Navarro.
	I used to be a Republican.
	That gives me carte blanche to say all the bullshit.
	I love how you mispronounced the swear word.
	Hey, you know what?
	If I have nothing else for you guys, nothing else, if I offer nothing else, and there's a very strong possibility, you can go back to 2008 and see the ABCs of me.
	There was no money to grift.
	Alright, let's go to the truth here about the Gaza water shortage.
	Now, the reason this matters is because worse than misinformation sometimes is a, I guess you should say, subversion of truth.
	Half information, because then it grows and it grows and it grows and people forget the context.
	Originally, they were sort of fed, they were force fed, and then they start believing new lies.
	So that's where we are today with the idea of the Gaza water shortage.
	This is something that comes up every few years where they talk about the Palestinians not being able to have access to water and they blame it on Israel.
	Look, wherever you line up in this conflict, truth matters.
	It couldn't be further from the truth that Israel has just shut off the water supply to Gaza or, you can talk about the West Bank, wherever in Palestine at that given moment in time.
	And we're going to transition into why none of these other countries actually want Palestinians.
	They don't.
	Nobody wants them.
	Very clear about that.
	They're like the El Salvadorians of that area.
	Now.
	Worse.
	I don't know.
	I just know that most people from South America have Bolivian friends, Ecuadorian friends, and they're all like, well, we all, you know, everybody hates El Salvador.
	And I get it.
	Okay, we go.
	The point is, let me ask you, what have you heard about the water situation in Palestine?
	Okay, in Gaza?
	What is it that you believe all the references will be made available at louderwithcredit.com?
	You can click the link in the description.
	So the media, they do their best, of course, to try and morally equate Hamas-Israel.
	Okay.
	Marley was dead to begin with.
	And they really like to point to one thing recently, and that is the water.
	Oh my, the water.
	The UN says water production from municipal groundwater sources in Gaza is less than 5% of what it was before the war.
	Stop spilling it on the ground!
	Leib Lazarini, head of the UN Agency for Palestinians, has warned Gaza is running out of water and Gaza is running out of life.
	But it's not just turning off the tap.
	Israel has also blocked fuel, which is desperately needed to restart pumping and treatment plants.
	OK.
	First off, Sesame Street had the whole, you never let the water run, run, he's just letting it run down a Nestle bottle.
	I know, it's like half of it's going in, what are you doing?
	You would be fired if you did that in this office consistently because we have that reverse osmosis filter and the remit, it's a whole thing.
	It's great water that we have in this office, but you don't just let that liquid go, don't let it run on the ground.
	Yeah, I cease to care when you do that.
	They don't respect their own stuff.
	That's why all their old crap looks just like their new crap.
	Now, it's not just Gaza.
	For years you've heard the same thing about the West Bank, too, right?
	Let's kind of slap you in the face with some truth.
	The reason Gaza, the West Bank, lack water, is not because of Israel, but again, because of the Palestinians' own governance.
	Right now, of course, that is Hamas.
	In the future, it'll be some other iteration of terrorist assholes.
	But we'll go with Hamas right now.
	If you believe that it's because of Israel, or because of the big state in the United States, you are incorrect.
	The defense is wrong.
	Let's go through some claims here and disabuse you of them.
	Here's the claim that they make.
	The water shortage in Gaza is of course, there could be no other reason, due to Jew cruelty.
	Civilians there in Gaza are struggling to access clean water and clean food as this war rages on.
	Israel says it's resumed some water supply to parts of southern Gaza, but it's unclear if that water is even safe to drink and consume.
	Why is that unclear?
	It was fine to consume a couple of weeks ago, and by the way, why do you think they're putting water on in southern Gaza?
	They told people to get the hell out of northern Gaza so they could bomb Hamas!
	Hold on, we're gonna get into that, because right now we're talking about water.
	But the water works!
	No, but the point is, is it not safe to- I mean, it doesn't take Colombo, it's like, well, it was safe to consume last week, it's not- okay, yeah.
	Did you take a dump in it?
	You're pouring that water into a mop bucket.
	I know.
	I don't know what the point of that news is.
	So here's the truth.
	Before we get to the rest, before we get to the cleanliness of the water, which is a big issue, most water in Gaza is not from Israel.
	It's from Gaza.
	Only 13% of Gaza's water comes from Israel.
	The remaining 87% it comes from water supplies that are basically they stem from domestic sources.
	So 80% of it, all these references are available at lidarwithcrider.com.
	Groundwater from the coastal aquifer.
	97% of it is undrinkable, though, because these guys also engage in over-pumping, they have all kinds of problems with wastewater, agricultural runoff.
	7% of the water is supposed to come from desalination plants.
	And just to be clear, they have built desalination plants entirely from outside funding.
	For the longest time, they refused to.
	So they don't even have to pay for this, by the way.
	They don't have to pay for these wells.
	They don't have to pay for these desalination plants.
	These come from international governments, and we'll get to that.
	The newest plant that they have can provide clean water up to about 175,000 metric liters.
	No, no, no, this is people.
	175,000 people.
	Oh, okay, and then later we go into the cubic liters again.
	We're going through metric versus the... I don't know why the United States is the only place we don't use metric, because a foot is the king's foot.
	Yeah.
	And then they use centimeters, but we still use... it's silly.
	Yeah.
	All right, now let's go through how they've paid for a lot of these water capabilities.
	Okay, because a lot of people argue they don't have the money because they're oppressed.
	All right, they've received hundreds of millions of dollars to improve infrastructure.
	In 2020, $117 million from the World Bank.
	2021, $9 million from the EU.
	17 million dollars from the World Bank.
	2021, 9 million dollars from the EU.
	2022, 100 million dollars from USED.
	Here's another problem.
	50% of water and sewage, their infrastructure in Gaza City, it needed rehabilitation.
	It needed new infrastructure.
	It needed a facelift before the war.
	Right.
	So a lot of that water that they actually get leaks out of those pipes into the ground.
	And you just saw the hundreds of millions of dollars that have been given to them to improve their infrastructure over the course of years.
	Instead, they use the water pipes to build rockets.
	because those rockets aren't just going to build themselves.
	♪♪ Can Brussels get a refund?
	They should be.
	Hamas has an interesting PR team by the way.
	This is why you can't drink water.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Habib is spray-painting them.
	So they've been receiving hundreds of millions of dollars from the international community.
	The international community helped build desalination plants, helped them create drill right for wells, helped get them pipes, and then they used the pipes for rockets.
	And unfortunately with all this, children are the ones who are most affected.
	Papa, I'm so thirsty.
	Shut up Aziz!
	I'm so sick of your whining.
	Keep filling the pipe with white phosphorus or you won't get your sodium nitrate.
	But don't we need these pies for water, too?
	Oh!
	I forgot!
	Aziz is so smart!
	I just meant that we... Everyone!
	Everyone!
	We must all listen to Aziz!
	He is a genius!
	I just thought we could use them for water, too.
	Must be nice to be so smart.
	You have to be conditioned to be as stupid as Hamas is, just to be clear.
	To be as stupid and evil as Hamas is.
	Let's go through another claim.
	So right now they say, well, yeah, okay, so we screwed up before the war and sure, you know, pipes, water pipes, rockets, tomato, tomato.
	Now we find ourselves at a juncture where there isn't enough fuel in Gaza to operate the water system.
	So that's the new complaint.
	The cutoff of the clean water that used to come in from Israel and the fuel needed to power generators and the electricity needed to power generators.
	Thank you, Babadook!
	sewage cannot properly be treated. The wastewater treatment plants are shut down.
	Did she stick a nickel in a light socket?
	There are significant concerns about a humanitarian crisis based on an epidemic of disease in addition
	to the more than 4,000 people who've been killed as the Israeli airstrikes began.
	Thank you, Baba Duk. Now, the truth is that Hamas is hoarding massive amounts of fuel.
	Okay, now we have photographs from the IDF and I know that some of you will say, Jews!
	Okay, but first we'll get some more evidence.
	They have photographs showing that Hamas is hoarding at least 500,000 liters of fuel.
	That's a lot.
	Okay.
	IDF spokesperson Jonathan, I think it's Conricus Is how it's pronounced he said that Hamas could supply fuel
	to and there are other examples that not just from the IDF just to be
	Clear but here is him saying that Hamas could supply fuel to power their water infrastructure
	Specifically you can see that Hamas has between eight hundred and fifty thousand and one million liters of fuel
	Depending on their priorities They can of course send this fuel to hospitals and to pump
	water using generators or they can continue Using it for fighting against Israel
	Okay.
	Now, and that's a tough, that's the catch-22.
	It's like, hydration?
	Kill Jews.
	I get it.
	It's a real Sophie's terrorist choice.
	Now, those are IDF claims, and you'll say, I don't trust the Jews.
	Fine.
	I don't trust anyone who's Jewish.
	If they have too many vowels in their last name, my trust goes down.
	We see that direct correlation from Pew Research, I think.
	But we have a long track record with Hamas.
	Right?
	On October 15th, Hamas was alleged to have stolen fuel from the UN.
	Right, this says the UN received reports yesterday that a group of people with trucks purporting to be from the Ministry of Health, the de facto authorities of Gaza, removed fuel, medical equipment from the agency's compound in Gaza.
	You can go back to when you had the flotilla fiasco.
	You can go back in time.
	Just rewind three years or five years.
	At any given moment in time, Hamas has been known to hoard fuel, to hoard resources, and to use their people as human shields.
	So right now, you'll say it's only confirmed by the IDF, we don't have it confirmed by the international intelligence community, but we have no reason to believe that it is a lie.
	So we know that it is not because Israel has shut off their water, and it is not because they have had their fuel shut off by someone else.
	Also, not to mention the little fact that, let's take a little bit of personal responsibility, Hamas, okay?
	You're at war, you killed a bunch of innocent people, it's not their job to give you both water and fuel.
	You're like the bitching TikTok Zoomer of the terrorist world.
	Especially when in the last couple of years you've gotten over 200 million dollars to solve the problem.
	Wouldn't you, if you're Hamas and you're about to attack the Jews who give you water, wouldn't you, like the first thing you do it's like, alright we gotta be independent of these guys because we're about to kill a lot of them for no particular reason at all and we hate their civilians.
	Why don't we make sure we have water?
	Right.
	They didn't do any of that.
	It plays right into their hand, man.
	It plays right into their plan.
	Oh, they did it on purpose!
	That's the whole point!
	Well, you can compare again.
	What does Israel think?
	Okay, the first thing we have to do, whether you like the way they do it or not, we have to make sure that our people have water, we have to make sure that we're able to have proper irrigation, that we can farm, that we are self-sustaining.
	They first go, how do we protect our people?
	Now, you may say that it's an ethnostate, and that's an argument that we can have, and I think you're wrong, but at the very least, they actually want to preserve the livelihood of their people.
	Hamas has no interest in that.
	They build rockets first, they build bombs first, they kill their people first, then afterwards they'll get some water.
	For crying out loud!
	Animals go to the watering hole first if they think there'll be a drought!
	And by the way, this is one thing before we move on because I want to get to some historical context.
	This talk about water, it has me parched.
	Not only could I use a snack, but I found something out in the office the other day.
	Can we bring, can we bring in, let's bring in our, our, our, our snack is right, girl.
	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	Can you show that to the camera?
	This is new.
	This is something, and I would love for people to comment.
	You can leave that on the desk.
	Is this new?
	Sweetheart.
	I had never heard of this before.
	Thank you.
	Plum Cots?
	Is that?
	Is that?
	Plum Cots.
	Is that like a Kumquat?
	It's a Plum Cot.
	Plum Cot.
	Plum Cot.
	It's a Plum Cot.
	What is it?
	Please comment below.
	I walk down to the office and go, everyone stop.
	Has anyone here heard of a plum cot and no one had?
	Nope.
	No wait, one person had.
	One person.
	One person.
	That we didn't really trust.
	Applejack.
	Yeah, it was Applejack.
	It was Applejack.
	He had heard of the plum cot.
	Do you know what a plum cot is?
	A cot full of plums.
	Sounds disgusting.
	Is it a cross between a plum and a kumquat?
	That's what I imagined.
	I think it's a kumquat.
	No, it's an apricot.
	It's a cross between a plum and an apricot.
	Apricot.
	Plum and apricot.
	Have these been rinsed?
	Probably not.
	You want one?
	Yeah.
	They sound disgusting.
	That's a very girl-like throw, but I'm going to hit something in the studio.
	No, you look like Durant.
	Did I?
	Yes, that's what I think.
	I look just like Durant.
	Do you want one?
	No, because you'll have to throw it farther.
	Actually, yes, because you'll have to throw it farther.
	He's gonna throw it like this.
	Whoop!
	Him and his Notre Dame reflexes. What is it?
	It's pretty good.
	Oh look, I have the one out and it's bruised.
	I don't know what it tastes more like.
	You want me to wing one at ya?
	No, I don't want you to wing one at me.
	Tree and Wizard of Oz?
	Sorry guys, I know this probably doesn't matter to you.
	Let me have this one.
	I was very confused.
	Brought to you by Big Plum Clout.
	Are they good?
	That's good.
	But now I didn't realize, I don't think I've ever just had an apricot straight.
	Only time I've eaten apricot is when I accidentally was washing my face and it went in my mouth.
	St.
	Ives?
	St.
	Ives!
	Yeah, use that though.
	They found out the apricot shells cause microabrasions and it's actually bad for you.
	Oh, microagressions?
	No thanks.
	No, microabrasions.
	Microabrasions?
	Is that like when I... Is that when I change my mind during the transition?
	Seriously though, comment below.
	I didn't know anything about... I forgot the word.
	Plum cots.
	Plum cots.
	Never heard of them.
	Alright.
	Actually, the problem is now it's good.
	I don't want to do the show.
	I just want to be in the moon.
	Well, you have to.
	I know.
	I know.
	I find it interesting that the only reason that we're hearing about Gaza's water problem that they've had for a couple years now, it seems.
	Forever.
	For a time.
	Water problems in the Middle East?
	For a few days now.
	The only time we find out about it is when Israel bad guy is bombing them.
	Yeah, when they were spawned.
	Yeah.
	When they were spawned, yeah.
	When they were attacked, yeah.
	So thank you, Israel, for bringing light to the water shortage in Gaza.
	We appreciate it.
	The world appreciates it.
	The Palestinians appreciate it.
	Thank you very much.
	Maybe Ashton Kutcher will go over there and he'll set up some nets for malaria.
	He won't bring Mila.
	Dummy.
	You remember that?
	Someone bring that up from Mission Control.
	They had that, I think the charity was Nothing But Net.
	But that's the problem, though.
	It shouldn't be nothing but net.
	You should also use chemicals.
	No, no, that'll hurt the birds' eggs.
	But what do they do for the other hours of the day when they're not in their bed?
	That's assuming they have a bed.
	Here's another claim that you will hear.
	It's not just Gaza.
	Israel's been restricting water to the West Bank.
	Usually you hear about Gaza and then you hear the West Bank and sometimes people even confuse them because they're used so often as far as professional victimhood.
	They've been restricting water to the West Bank forever.
	Director General Adel Yassin says there's plenty of water in the West Bank to meet the needs of Palestinians.
	This is Al Jazeera.
	But Israel controls 85% of its resources.
	They're washing their cars.
	Ice cars too.
	He says the last time a construction of a new working well was approved was 15 years ago.
	Okay.
	Here's the truth.
	The West Bank has plenty of access to water.
	Something called the Oslo II Accords.
	Yeah.
	Okay?
	Usually, if you read it, if you look it up, you have to spell, like, write it Roman numeral II, like a Rocky file.
	That's true.
	This is 1995.
	Okay?
	These Accords determined that the West Bank would need about 70 to 80 million cubic meters of water per year.
	Okay.
	And then these Accords were involved in saying, okay, where you can drill Uh, how we're going to sort of partition this.
	2022, the amount pumped from Palestinian wells in the West Bank was 108 million cubic meters.
	Which is more.
	Which is more than 70 to 80 million cubic meters.
	Again, all of this is available.
	We make the references available.
	But here's the problem!
	This water's not always very consistent.
	They have those capabilities.
	But, Palestinians and their representatives in the West Bank, they won't repair the leaky pipes, they won't use treated waste water to irrigate their farms, they use inefficient irrigation methods, they plant the wrong crops at the wrong time, and by the way, not to mention with all this, they still steal water from Israeli water pipes.
	That's something no one talks about.
	It's like siphoning gas.
	They do that like, no, no, this is the good Jew water.
	It's blessed.
	And just like Gaza, the West Bank, they receive massive amounts of outside funding for said water systems.
	2023, World Bank alone, 73 million dollars.
	We're talking about the West Bank now.
	2023 as well, you said 14 million dollars.
	You're close to 100 million dollars and they still can't get their crap together.
	Also, the Palestinian Authority, when people say it's not a whole lot, the Palestinian Authority, okay, they're also, they've been caught red-handed consistently stealing aid.
	You send them money for humanitarian aid and it goes to terrorists.
	It's like public schools here in the States only end up with a failed test score.
	You send humanitarian aid to any governing body in Palestine and it gets used for terrorism.
	They have the money, they have the locations, they have the ability.
	And they have the green light to be self-sustaining.
	They refuse to because they just really, really, really want to kill people.
	I wish that I loved anything as much as Palestinian authorities loved killing Jews.
	Oh my gosh.
	At what point do we not care anymore?
	At what point do we say, look, you've had... First off, in the Palestinian thing on the West Bank, they have more water than they need when they're like, and they haven't drilled a well in 15 years.
	That's because they have a surplus!
	They just don't know how to use it.
	Or they have those capabilities.
	That's the thing.
	It's a little bit great.
	They may not have that water right now.
	They have access to it.
	It's on them at that point.
	They'd rather squabble over territory.
	But I want that water.
	But that water's for the Jews.
	You can get it here.
	Yeah, but we're saying that that's our land.
	Okay, but right now you have no water.
	Well fine, then none of my people get water.
	Okay, you're killing them.
	It's like a toddler.
	Yes!
	Like a toddler or a dog.
	It's a terrorist hobby.
	Die like a dog.
	It is.
	And this is what every single time former Vice President Joe Biden or anybody else in the world comes on and says, we're going to give money to the Palestinians to help out in Gaza, to help out in the West Bank.
	This is what happens.
	Hundreds of millions of dollars go in and they still have leaky pipes.
	This is not a major problem to fix.
	And if it is, we've already given you the money to fix it.
	I'm sorry that you didn't do your homework properly and you built rockets to fire into Israel, but that's on you.
	People don't get water.
	Also, by the way, without proper irrigation you can't have these.
	Plum Cots.
	Plum Cots!
	They're good, though.
	I'm not even joking.
	They're pretty good.
	I like it.
	I thought, considering how hard it was, like, you know you get a plum that's hard?
	Yeah.
	It's too tart and bitter?
	This is firm with a crunch, but it's still largely sweet.
	Oh, yeah.
	Nice and firm and hard.
	Thank you.
	And sweet and juicy as well.
	That's what she said.
	Can I just say something?
	Thank you to today's sponsor, Monsanto.
	We're not a sponsor.
	That's what I wanted to say.
	This is not a sponsor.
	Thank you, Norman Borlaug.
	Now!
	Dwarf wheat.
	Is it Borlaug?
	I don't remember his name.
	Norman Borlaug.
	Norman Borlaug.
	Guy who's saved more lives than anyone in the history of humanity.
	Of the world.
	Allegedly!
	Okay, so all this brings us to the water stuff that you now know is a lie.
	This also is a big reason why no one wants to bring in the Palestinians.
	We're going through a little bit of geohistory here today.
	People say the Jews don't want to take in Palestinians.
	Okay, true as that may be, neither do all the people who claim that they want to support the Palestinian people.
	This has been going on for a very, very long time.
	That's why historically they said to the Jews, all right, you were being gassed in record numbers.
	You're saying never again.
	Here's an area that was historically yours.
	We'll set up a small area for you to live there because kind of no one lives there and no one really wants to deal with these people.
	So let's go through.
	The list of people who are not Israel who don't want to take in the Palestinians.
	You've heard ad nauseum calls from these progressives to take in refugees from Palestine.
	Here's Jamal Bowman saying 50% of the population in Gaza are children.
	The international community as well as the United States should be prepared to welcome refugees from Palestine while being very careful to vet and not allow members of Hamas.
	Kind of hard to do, considering that a majority of Palestinians still have a favorable view of Hamas.
	Now, we don't know how accurate those polls are, because they're probably run by Hamas research.
	You know, Quinnipiac.
	It's like Rasmia Hamas.
	Hamas House Productions.
	Yes, exactly.
	Here's AOC speaking the same kind of jibber jabber.
	Should Arab countries be taking on the lion's share of the burden to absorb what could be over a million, if not more, refugees from Gaza?
	I think there's something to be said about the region's partners being able to support and step up Palestinians.
	However, that does not abdicate the United States from our historic role that we've played in the world of
	Accepting refugees and allowing people to restart their lives here. I'm not gonna lie. I wasn't I've already
	watched the clip I wasn't really paying. I was like, these are surprisingly
	good. Yeah, I heard people are surprised here Yeah
	By the way, she can also stick her whole fist in her mouth.
	I've seen it. Don't give her any peanut butter though These are the same people, before we get into all these nations who don't want to take in the Palestinians, they call for a ceasefire after people were raped and murdered.
	Just to be clear, that is supporting terrorism.
	See daddy's smile?
	Come on, bring your feathery ears here.
	You ate my bird.
	Hey, cease fire guys, cease fire.
	We need to calm it down.
	This is way too violent.
	He's fine.
	Oh, f**k.
	Way too violent.
	I love how he focused on the bird.
	At that point in the movie, he'd already eaten several people as well.
	I just realized I forgot where the stinger was supposed to be in here.
	I don't think we have them in the... but it doesn't matter.
	I think we know what we're doing.
	They're in there.
	Are they?
	Yeah, they're a little further down.
	Oh, okay.
	You're doing great.
	And Yakuza's fired!
	Alright, shot!
	Yay.
	And the Akusa's fired!
	Yay.
	Time to close.
	Do you have that on your soundbites?
	Like a trompe l'oeil in your face.
	Okay, so let's go into, uh... Who do we have?
	We're gonna go through Jordan, Egypt, Syria, Lebanon.
	I don't know, we have a bunch of countries.
	Egypt.
	Qatar, Iran, Saudi Arabia.
	That would try to make me seem crazy, where people, they're gonna half expect me to be dancing with knives after the show.
	With running mascara.
	And then Nick DePaulo's gonna be like, I swear to God, he's dead.
	He's convinced Britney Spears is dead.
	I think he's right.
	I'm on board.
	That's not true!
	When he mentioned it, I was like, I know exactly what you're talking about.
	He's not a conspiracy theorist, but he is sure that she's not.
	I should tell you something.
	Alright.
	So, Arab countries in the Middle East don't want to take in refugees, just to be clear.
	It's a bad idea.
	They know it.
	This week, you have this Queen Rainieh of Jordan, not to be confused with the Queen of the Damned, Aaliyah, who, by the way, overloaded her plane with a thousand pounds of luggage.
	Of luggage.
	That's why the plane... Tragedy!
	But the pilot was like, this, we are all going to die.
	She's like, I don't give a... I want my luggage.
	And he was like, alright, whatever.
	Is she bringing two of each animal or something?
	Yeah, exactly.
	And every bodily beer.
	I get there's more to it than that, but the point is, just, if you're flying private, respect the envelope.
	Okay.
	So Queen Rania of Jordan, she actually tried her damnedest to explain why her country would not, again, Queen of Jordan, why they won't be accepting, you should, we should, but why they won't be accepting Palestinian refugees.
	The people of Gaza now are facing two choices.
	Either they leave or they face death or collective punishment.
	So essentially they're given a choice between expulsion or extermination.
	Between ethnic cleansing and genocide.
	And no people should be given, have to face that kind of choice.
	And what my husband was referring to is The people of Palestine, of Gaza, should not be forced to be moved again.
	All right, we can cut out that stutter.
	She's really dancing around her husband.
	Well, the reason why is because she's trying to run interference, do some damage control for her husband, the king, in case you were wondering.
	King Abdullah II, again, Roman numeral, who said this.
	Part of the question on the issues of refugees coming to Jordan, and I think I can quite strongly speak on behalf not only of Jordan as a nation, but of our friends in Egypt, that is a red line.
	Because I think that is the plan by certain of the usual suspects to try and create de facto issues on the ground.
	No refugees in Jordan, no refugees in Egypt.
	Alright, I did not expect him to sound that way when he spoke.
	Yeah, like a British.
	But, let's just, before we get into it, we'll go into all of these different countries, but let's really just set the stage.
	The reason that none of these countries are taking in Palestinians, even though they all, you know, don't like the Jews, is because they all hate everything.
	I HATE EVERYTHING ABOUT JEWS!
	Alright.
	Was that... Was that Three Doors Down?
	Yeah, no, I think that was Creed.
	No, it's Third Eye Blind.
	Can I take you higher?
	Can I have some water?
	Into our world of hinds!
	I think it was Three Days Grace.
	Three Days Grace?
	Three Days Grace.
	They're sitting in Palestine right now.
	It's Three Days Grace.
	Oh, Three Days Grace.
	Yeah.
	Oh, Three Doors Down was a... If I have you by my side, will you still call me Superman?
	It's in Kryptonite.
	Which is a power line for Hamas Paraglider.
	Yeah.
	I think that's Creed.
	Isn't that Creed?
	That one's Kryptonite!
	I say we need a hero to save us, we're not going to stand here and wait.
	Palestinians trying to leave, they're like, I'm here without you baby, looking for a new country.
	I went to McGrath and, I can't go on not bombing you!
	I really want to see that Palestinian deli.
	It's all in my head, I want to kill Jews over and over again.
	Because I've been called from Mohammed, and it would hurt so bad.
	Electric Jihad.
	I can't go on not bombing Jews.
	You stayed on my white man dress.
	His song, Live Like You Were Dying, is just how many ways he would kill the Jews.
	That's the Jihad melody.
	To live like you are definitely dying.
	So let's go through country by country, because you only hear about Israel.
	Jordan!
	As the wonderful and very fetching Queen stated.
	Yes.
	Dude, she is significantly younger and prettier than he is.
	Yeah, that's definitely... Pretty man.
	There goes a guy with a plane.
	Did you see?
	There goes a guy with a plane and a king.
	A country.
	He has a country.
	He's like, it's good to be king!
	Okay, we get it.
	He doesn't sound like that, though.
	No, he doesn't.
	It's good to be king.
	I think it's good to be king.
	Of Jordan.
	Yep.
	I'm the king of Jordan.
	This is our Arab land.
	He'll be played by Jason Statham.
	I'm the king of Jordan, see?
	They'll just come in and tell me, like, you... Here's a deal.
	Here's what we're gonna do.
	We're not gonna let these Palestinians in.
	I just wanted to be a simple diver.
	I'm the transporter.
	I don't transport Palestinians, though.
	Hey, stay put.
	That's a great statement.
	Who does Jason Statham?
	Alright!
	So, who would want to Jordan?
	There's lots of ladies that want to do him.
	I bet the Queen of Jordan wants to do Jason Statham.
	That's why she's like, hey can you get a British accent for me?
	Jason Statham really does it.
	I like that good looking cop.
	Looks like Kojak.
	That would be great!
	Have Jason Statham play the new Kojak if they brought it back.
	Bring it back up.
	Bring back up the best looking cop ever.
	Come on now.
	That does look like comedian Wyatt Covey.
	He's probably running for Congress.
	Yeah, he probably is.
	He does.
	Yeah, he does.
	It's like the Phantom.
	All right.
	Okay, sorry, let's go through the countries.
	So, Jordan.
	King Abdullah does not feel that the Palestinians should be displaced, is what he says.
	He's like, hey, hey, I don't think that they should be, you know, the whole thing is they shouldn't be displaced, but then, tool man, you can be ready here.
	The real reason is actually because they hate them.
	I hate everything about Jews!
	No, you hit the wrong stinger.
	That was the one about the Jewish one.
	Lebanon.
	This is Jordan, sorry.
	That was the one for Jordan.
	Well, that was the one for Jordan, Tim.
	Go, go.
	Well, no, that is the one for Jordan.
	That was it.
	Well, just use the...
	The real reason is they hate them, okay?
	1951, in case you guys don't know this history with Jordan.
	There was a Palestinian who assassinated the king of Jordan on Temple Mount.
	Wow.
	The great-grandfather of the current king.
	So he probably still has a sore spot about that.
	He's like, you know, I don't want them to be displaced.
	I'm like, yeah, question.
	Is it because he killed your great-great-grandfather?
	No.
	No!
	I can separate business from personal, so it doesn't bother you.
	I know you were just getting over it, but 19 years later when they tried to... That's right, 1970, Palestinians, they tried to assassinate the king of Jordan, the father of the current king.
	It's like, hey, did that bother you?
	It's a displacement thing!
	They killed your great-grandfather, they tried to kill your dad, let the bygones be bygones.
	Oh, so let him in.
	So he survived the assassination in Jordan, and then there was this resulting war.
	And, you know, that's what happened.
	Palestinian war from Jordan.
	There was a whole thing.
	Who won?
	No one wins.
	Yeah, no one wins.
	I mean, have you been to Jordan or Palestine?
	It'd be tough to be like, wow, you guys really got the lion's share.
	Allah wins.
	The desert wins.
	Now let's go to Egypt.
	All right.
	Hey, Egypt.
	Okay, Egypt.
	They're right there.
	You got Israel, you got Egypt.
	They could take them in.
	They're trying to claim that, well, actually the economy is not able to cope with the influx of refugees.
	You know, so we're not going.
	But then the U.S.
	said, hey, hey, it's okay.
	We'll help.
	We'll help pay for refugees.
	And they're like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, that's okay.
	And the U.S.
	said, no, no, we can really help.
	Because the real reason with Egypt is, as it relates to Palestinians, they hate them.
	I hate You hate!
	So as it relates to Egypt, Hamas is an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood, which is a terrorist organization.
	They helped win the Egyptian election in 2012 before they were immediately overthrown by the Egyptian army in 2013.
	So fast.
	And here's the thing, you live in the States and so you're easily fooled by profit.
	You don't understand what a coup is actually like.
	No.
	If you think January's... Do you have any idea how often leaders get taken out, get swapped out by an army and then guerrillas?
	Do you know the history of Haiti?
	They come in and they're like, yeah, it's a really cute thing, you guys had an election.
	No.
	This happens everywhere except for where you are, so you can go on TikTok and bitch about having to work from 9 till 5 and having a 35 minute commute.
	Here's how one Egyptian, who again, you would think, hey, Egypt, they're going to help their people, the Palestinians.
	These are not their people.
	Here's how one Egyptian expressed Egypt's sentiment towards Palestinians in Gaza.
	He said, you keep guard dogs on a leash in your yard, not in your bedroom.
	Because they should threaten your enemies, not your children.
	That's what he said.
	So he's saying we should use the Palestinian people as guard dogs.
	In other words, we should use them against the Jews, but we don't want them in the house with the children.
	He used the guard dog analogy.
	By the way, we have exclusive video of said representatives run in with some Palestinians
	while kite surfing in the Red Sea.
	I get that you have some trauma you have to peel back, but hey, hashtag not all Palestinians.
	Red Sea?
	More like Dead Sea now, right Gerald?
	The thing is, that's an actual sea though, and he won't know.
	I did.
	I'm being a total C right now.
	I'm sorry, Gerald.
	Yeah, it's okay.
	Don't worry, I still have the power to fire you.
	You're being a total dead C you next Tuesday.
	Oh no!
	He's a day raider!
	A day raid?
	A day raider?
	People at me because you're not, you know, you're not like a salary because you come in, you're not doing good, so he can't fire you.
	Oh, right, I thought you meant like a pirate, like a raider, like I raid your house during the day.
	Oh, I thought that you thought I said day raper.
	Oh, no.
	Which is the worst kind of raper because, you know, you need the cover of night.
	I wasn't, yeah.
	If one were to rape, you would want the cover of Night.
	Clearly.
	Or more risky.
	No, it's less risky with the cover of Night.
	No, I mean in the day.
	Yeah, in the day.
	In the day you don't have the cover.
	Right.
	There's no cover.
	There's no Night.
	There's no cover.
	Yeah, in the daytime they're welcoming with arms wide open.
	Arms wide open!
	No cover of Night!
	What an awful sight!
	Raped right open!
	Alright!
	Split like a coconut!
	Alright, keep going!
	Can you rip me harder?
	Blake, if you're in danger!
	Now I'm blind and I can't see.
	Tickets are 39 cents.
	Seriously, did I ever tell you that when I worked at Fox News and they were guests on Red Eye?
	No!
	They were guests on Red Eye, they were announcing their new tour, and then the day after the tickets, they were like 78 cents.
	No.
	I know, I felt so bad.
	Is it a promo?
	Who's out there selling 78 cent tickets?
	I mean, it's when you can't sell $0.
	At that point, it's just like, it's more of a moral victory for Cream.
	I guess.
	Like, look, we can't sell tickets, we're just gonna canvas it.
	SELL IT FOR 75 CENTS!
	That's so sad.
	Okay, so now we go to Syria.
	All right, so we've gone through Egypt, right?
	We've gone through Jordan.
	Okay, let's go to Syria.
	Hey, certainly they'll take in the Palestinians.
	It's only the Jews who won't.
	Well, they kind of say the same thing as Jordan.
	They say that the Palestinians should stay and build their own state and not flee.
	That's what they say.
	They're like, well, we don't want to enable Israel.
	We don't want to enable Israel because it'll force these people.
	You guys should stay and fight.
	But the real reason that Syria doesn't want to take them They hate them!
	I hate you!
	The Palestinians are Sunni Muslims, and of course with Syria they're anti-Sunni as it relates to the sentiment in Syria's government.
	They're just, they don't want anything to do with it.
	But they just say, hey, you guys go, you've got it, you don't need our help.
	Yeah, you build a state over there, that's a nice plot of land.
	That's a nice, come on, you don't let them, hey, you know what, you take those pipes meant for water, you build rockets, and that feeling of accomplishment is something those Jews can never take away from you.
	That's right, don't let them push you around.
	And I would be doing...
	Every member of this terrorist organization a disservice if I didn't allow you to build that yourself.
	That's right.
	Yeah, they don't want to take their recruits away.
	No, no.
	It's 50% children after all.
	Exactly, 50% children.
	And I want you to feel the sense of accomplishment.
	You know, I can't teach you self-esteem.
	So you stay there and we'll stay over here.
	Let's go to Lebanon.
	They've got to like Palestine.
	So, they say that granting Palestinians... Knock knock!
	It's like the little piggies.
	Only all of them have a house of brick.
	And Hamas can't huff and puff and blow shit.
	They just have to stay out there.
	Knock knock!
	Hamas!
	We're not here!
	Are you here?
	No.
	I heard you say there's no one there, but I heard someone say it, which means there's someone there.
	You're so stupid!
	I'm sorry, I'm a child on cold medicine.
	So, Lebanon has said that, well, if we granted the Palestinian citizenship, it would upset this whole, like, balance in our country that's largely sectarian.
	So, you know, I just, we don't think that it's great for the health of current Lebanon.
	The real reason, the Lebanese, as it relates to the Palestinians, hate them!
	I hate you!
	Hate!
	Now with the history.
	Doesn't get old here.
	The Palestinians kind of hung Lebanon out to dry when they struck Israel during the Lebanese Civil War.
	This was between 1975 and 1990.
	And that led to Israel invading southern Lebanon.
	You're so stupid.
	I'm like, hey, we've got an internal conflict.
	Let's pick on that guy!
	It's like coming home to the roommate who just trashes your apartment.
	He's like, what?
	What the fuck?
	Well, there was Jews.
	I had to kill them.
	I told you, you can't put a fork in the microwave!
	But I had to.
	It's like they don't think anything through.
	This isn't just new, so right now they say, oh no, we can't do it right now, but for a very long time, the Lebanese, great food by the way, have been treating the Palestinians like dog shit.
	So most Palestinians, I didn't know this until this morning, great find, Ginger Snap, if they're born in Lebanon, so Palestinians born in Lebanon have been denied citizenship, the majority of them.
	They're legally barred from working in professions like medicine, law, engineering, and you guys bitch about the United States.
	Think about this for a second.
	You guys talk about the Dreamer Act in the United States.
	The majority of Palestinians born in Lebanon are denied citizenship completely.
	You would think.
	Hey, Lebanon.
	Of course they're going to.
	So we have Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon.
	Let's go to Clockboy's favorite vacation spot.
	Let's go to Qatar.
	Okay.
	I've also heard Qatar.
	I don't care.
	That's not Qatar.
	That is fair.
	They've been, it's not.
	No.
	Okay, so people correct me.
	Comment below.
	Is it Qatar or is it Qatar?
	This guy, by the way, thank you for your service.
	He's been overseas.
	I would assume he knows.
	It's Qatar.
	It's, uh... I don't know, I made that up.
	I heard it both ways.
	Uh, Qatar!
	What?
	Finish the song, Gerald.
	Was that a slogan?
	No, I just... By Qatar.
	Much funnier.
	There you go.
	How's your third of this year?
	Qatar.
	I'm your Qatar.
	I'm your Syria.
	I have diarrhea.
	That's not a good Razor commercial at all.
	So Qatar, I'm going with Qatar.
	They've actually been largely silent on the Palestinian refugees.
	That doesn't change the fact that they have strict laws, you know, regarding refugee settlements.
	Now, the reason, or resettling I should say at this point, and I don't really know if we would call it resettling because I've never really allowed them to settle there in the first place.
	They're like, don't get, don't put your feet up, don't get too comfortable.
	The real reason they've been silent, Qatar, is because they too hate them.
	I hate you!
	So as it relates to Qatar, you know, being an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas is seen as sharing in the Muslim Brotherhood's kind of anti-monarch origins.
	And those in Qatar, they're, well, here's the thing.
	They're scared of Palestinian terrorism.
	The reason that they're scared that it could result in terrorism is because Qatar helped fund it.
	Qatar helps fund Hamas and Palestinian terrorism abroad, and we don't terrorist where we eat.
	They know something.
	They're onto it.
	They also host...
	The leadership of Hamas in some ways.
	I know that the meetings that have been taking place are like, we'll take like the very finest of you, but not the normal citizen.
	We'll take you for like a nice summer visit.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
	And then you go back.
	Special guest.
	Then you go back.
	Right.
	We'll give you money to blow up Jews.
	Just, you know, keep it over there.
	They're like, what about Bob?
	They keep coming.
	Look, I've been working on boundaries lately.
	Okay.
	Boundaries, I'll fund terrorism, but I won't have it here.
	Let's go to another country, everyone's favorite asshole of the world right now.
	If God were to give the world an enema, he would stick it in Iran.
	So they haven't given an official reason for not taking refugees, but again, we can,
	we'll make some inferences, but spoiler alert, Iran hates the Palestinians.
	I hate you! Hate!
	Yes.
	they send them to die. Yes, so much hate. Anti-Amos sent, it's been growing by the
	way among the Iranian public despite this sort of regime's growing support of
	Amos. There's a bit of a disconnect there. So October 20th here's a tweet that
	shows a video of Iranians booing a moment of silence for Gaza before a
	soccer game.
	Is it a clip or we just have the tweet?
	It's just the tweet.
	Where it says, Iranian football fans booed during a minute's silence for the people of Gaza at the beginning of a Friday match earlier this month.
	Fans were heard chanting, take that Palestinian flag and shove it up your star star.
	I can deal with it.
	That's a long chant.
	I'd like to get everybody on board with that.
	Hey!
	Ho!
	Ho!
	Take that Palestinian flag and shove it up their ass.
	Wait, what?
	Does not go with the previous beat.
	No, it doesn't.
	On air, but probably sounds different.
	Almost like you're out of cadence.
	Guys, let's get in sync here.
	Come on, let's tighten it up.
	This is a yell rally.
	I'm going to need a little more khakh from the left.
	Hold on a second.
	What have we gone through?
	We've gone through Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Qatar.
	Am I missing anyone?
	Iran.
	We went through Iran.
	And now we have Saudi Arabia.
	So Saudi Arabia.
	Again, you've only heard about Israel not taking in refugees.
	They haven't really given much attention.
	much sort of nuance. I know that's a word that people like to use when they're not super intelligent and so they love
	to act as though everything is in a gray area because they don't want to have to explain it or face accountability.
	So, no real nuance from Saudi Arabia. They just outright hate them.
	I hate you! Hate!
	Yeah, in Saudi Arabia, anyone showing any kind of support for the Palestinian cause can be imprisoned or worse.
	I do respect their honesty.
	Yeah, at least they just came out and said, hey, we're not going to try to bullshit you guys.
	We don't like them.
	Yeah, we don't like those guys.
	I'm not a fan.
	Have you had their food?
	Terrible.
	They're all kids, too.
	No work at them.
	I have got to say, I am just not a Hamas guy.
	That's right!
	That's right!
	I'm not.
	You've heard of the First Amendment?
	They've banned Saudi Imams from praying for the Palestinians.
	How little faith in your God must you have?
	If you think you're in the right... And you walk to your imam and it's like, okay, we prefer passport.
	Stop!
	Stop!
	Don't listen!
	Stop!
	Hey!
	Hey!
	Can we... She doesn't know what she's talking about!
	She's crazy!
	This imam is crazy!
	They think there's like a noise meter in heaven?
	Yeah.
	If it gets loud enough.
	He's a false imam.
	I don't know this guy.
	And the Saudi Arabians, they're more willing to deal with Israel than the Palestinians.
	And of course you see this after the Abraham Accords, which by the way were the largest sort of peace agreements we had seen in the Middle East in our lifetime.
	That was Biden?
	Or Obama?
	You almost got me.
	You almost got me.
	But seriously, nobody pray for Biden to win.
	Well, because I'm a Christian, but I just don't want God to get his wires drawn.
	Hey, you know what?
	Pray to your Zoroastrian copycat God for Hamas to take out a little Satan and big Satan.
	And, you know, we'll still have the world's most powerful military.
	I'll pray to God.
	I'll pray to good guy God.
	Real God.
	The Judeo-Christian God.
	And we'll let the cards fall.
	It's so stupid.
	Oh, I can't.
	Don't pray.
	We have to ban you from praying because I just, look, I like God, the man upstairs, but sometimes he has a lot on his plate.
	Well, he prayed for it.
	What am I supposed to do?
	Come on.
	There's like secret prayers going on.
	Yes.
	Come on.
	We're going to pray for the Palestinians in here.
	Yeah, they're using like pseudonyms like, and we pray for the Palpatines.
	I know what that means!
	Philistines?
	No, no, no.
	Nobody prays for Philistines, you're praying for... Those that we shall not name?
	Yes.
	So now, a big reason why.
	Saudis, by the way, they see normalizing relations with Israel as pushback against the proxy wars from Iran in the Middle East.
	So this is not to say that these people love the Jews.
	Just to be clear.
	This is just to say that the Palestinians have never been respected and have never been welcomed by any surrounding country.
	By any Islamic, Arabic, these countries in the Middle East, and I get it, we're not going to say all Arabic because people will say, okay, Iranian, Persian, Assyrian, I get that, I'm just using this as an umbrella term.
	Non-Jew countries, okay?
	Non-Jew countries.
	They don't like the Palestinians because they've all had problems.
	They have been nothing but problems.
	For all of these countries, for a very long time.
	And then, when these wars come out, some of them decide, hey, we can use this for a little bit of anti-Semitic propaganda.
	Saudi Arabia said, you know what, no.
	We would rather deal with Israel than deal with Iran and the proxy wars in the Middle East.
	And by the way, this has inspired the Palestinian people to produce a new reality show.
	So, they do make lemon out of, yeah.
	For those on audio, it's way worse than you thought it was.
	Keeping up with the Palestinians, for those listening on audio.
	And by the way, if you're on the road, and you do want to listen, anywhere you listen to podcasts, it's a good idea, actually, if you go and just leave a rating there, you can listen to the audio version.
	Spotify, Apple, Android, Google, Stitcher, all those places.
	We are available there, because sometimes people say the bandwidth, if they're watching on Rumble, when they're traveling, can be tough.
	So don't let us lose contact with you.
	So, if other Arab nations, Middle Eastern nations, are completely unwilling to take in the Palestinian refugees, we went through Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Iran, am I missing any?
	Don't say Dead Sea, I swear I will murder you in your sleep.
	Egypt?
	Did I say Egypt?
	Thank you!
	If none of these places are... First off, why should we take them?
	Why is it our responsibility?
	Why is it the responsibility of the nation at war with them to take them?
	Furthermore, do you notice a pattern?
	Do you notice a pattern there, right?
	If, you know, you meet someone who calls you a terrorist in the morning, hey, maybe you met someone who's just an Islamophobe.
	If for the entire day everyone is unwelcoming to you because of your terrorist activity, you're the terrorist.
	Yeah.
	And by the way, they have access to their own water.
	So all of that.
	Let me know if there's anything here that was new that you didn't know.
	Comment below.
	I know we had to go through a little bit of a deep dive.
	I guess some people say, what, they call them deep dives?
	We used to call them meat segments.
	We did.
	Meat on the bone.
	Whatever.
	And none of this is possible, by the way, without you joining and supporting at loudearthcutter.com slash Mug Club.
	You get this wonderful hand etched mug.
	It's $89 annually.
	You get Nick DiPaolo Monday through Thursday, 5 p.m.
	You get our Friday show.
	You get 50% more show every, sorry, 100% more show every single day.
	You get Alex Jones' show.
	You get Brian Callen's show.
	You get The Hodgwin Show.
	We are building out a network.
	You support our undercover investigative journalist unit.
	And you know what?
	It's also what allows us to not be beholden to big tech.
	When people out there say, the media is stopping this information from getting out, or the media is throttling It's true.
	And by the way, we have been harmed irreparably, for sure, being demonetized on YouTube.
	And it wasn't just being demonetized, though I'm sure that many of you wouldn't like to have a business where you just lose two, three million dollars in revenue off the bat.
	But the real issue is we were gaining 150 to 200,000 subscribers every single month.
	Demonetized, gone down to 10,000.
	Remonetized accidentally because of an intern at Google.
	It's a funny story.
	Back up to 150,000 new subscribers a month.
	Demonetized, boom, gone.
	So it's the reach.
	We don't have the ability to reach more people if not you and Mug Club and you guys sharing it.
	And we really, really genuinely appreciate it.
	Nothing happens without you.
	And look, because I know you won't do this, I'm going to do this.
	What?
	So, well, you kind of called this a little bit.
	No, right past the flagpole.
	Well, good Lord, it must have been worth it.
	Look, you know, you guys may have heard over the last several months a number of organizations out there saying, hey, we're actually getting screwed by big tech and we're going to make some changes so that we're not so dependent on big tech, especially over the last couple of days.
	You've seen that happen where people have said, hey, you know, big tech, I guess, is out there.
	We're going to go to a subscription model.
	And look, that's great.
	I'm glad people are finally coming on to join this team.
	Like, we have taken, and you specifically, For years have taken the hit for blazing the trail.
	We have been punched in the mouth over and over and over again by big tech.
	And we've said, Hey, Hey, Hey guys, the best way forward for this movement.
	If we want to be able to reach people and make this work, we have to get out of bed with big tech.
	We have to do it.
	And people always told us they knew better than us.
	People always told us that that wasn't necessarily the way to go, or people always told us that they had a better way, they had a better mousetrap for it, and I'm just loving that people are finally waking up and seeing that.
	So that's fantastic, but we've been doing it for years, and Mug Club, we can only do it because of you.
	That's the model people are going to, is a Mug Club type model.
	People that want to support and want to do it, but I just need you to know, We've been out there taking the hits on this.
	You knew it.
	We knew it.
	A bunch of other people that are on the same team that wear the same team jersey at the very least have said, that's not the way to go.
	And now they're coming around to it.
	I'm glad they're doing it better late than never.
	We do want all of these people to succeed because we want voices for conservatives to be loud and to be heard by as many people as possible and not be beholden to big tech.
	And Steven, you've been doing it for years.
	You called it.
	There's the next pitch ball, right past the flag post.
	Well, good lord, it must have been him.
	Thank you.
	I have no idea to whom you're referring.
	I like that that's a baseball reference.
	I don't really like baseball.
	Baseball's cool.
	Changed my mind.
	I would have never been happier to be wrong.
	You know this.
	I always wished that I was wrong.
	Where people would say, hey, they'll kill us last.
	And it's pervasive, unfortunately, on the conservative side.
	And by the way, this is why we have the YouTube dump button.
	I want to reach people.
	Where we can reach new people, but that has changed.
	They've made it impossible to reach new people with the truth.
	Or you do, but to a much smaller degree.
	So something that was really exciting for us is to see the bulk of our daily viewership move over to Rumble, right?
	Move over to Mug Club.
	I mean, if you're going to be a brother-in-arms with someone, would you rather be someone who's doing the bidding of YouTube, Meta, Facebook, or the people who flip the bird to the government of France?
	The people who flip the bird to, you know, was it Parliament in the UK?
	Yeah, in the UK as well.
	It's hard for me to keep track of all the governments.
	This has been going on for a long time.
	And by the way, I know that we have sometimes some tech issues, and that's because so many of you tune in and you watch live with Rumble.
	So these things are not perfect.
	Those things are being ironed out.
	But a long time ago, we decided, hey, we need to uncouple, I guess, to use the term from from big tech.
	And we said, hey, hey, The British are coming, but in this case it was, you know, big tech genderqueer chain gangs.
	We said, they're coming, they're coming, they're coming for you.
	People said, no, no, we think we can play ball.
	And now a lot of people, I think, you're going to see more of this as we go into election season.
	Hey, we were removed immediately before the last election.
	And I think that a lot of other conservatives are going to be facing that. You can't make up for it
	with sponsors. You can have some sponsors. Our sponsors are long-term sponsors who we actually
	have a relationship with. The only way to make it work is...
	And let me just... I want to say this because I really am incredibly appreciative of you and Mug
	Club, but this is something that's important to note. Sometimes I don't always talk about the
	vision of it because I feel like it's vulgar to promote what is effectively the business model.
	But to be clear, the business model is you support what it is that you want to see.
	Um...
	There's a lot of fatigue, tip fatigue out there.
	And you and I know this, where we have sometimes spoken with people about perhaps coming into, you know, Mug Club, and they go, yeah, but right now I can make more, and they'll cite Patreon or GoFundMe or whatever it is we go, yeah, but those can be That valve can be pinched.
	If I combine my revenue from YouTube and I combine my revenue here and what I'm going to make, yeah, but that can always go away.
	And so I understand that for you, as a viewer right now, there are so many places to pay.
	I mean, not only is there like Netflix and Peacock and Hulu and Disney and whatever else.
	I don't know where they do the Sylvester Stallone thing.
	Is it Paramount?
	But then you also have to go and hit a tip jar for this creator, that creator.
	At the end, you end up paying way more than you did for traditional cable.
	And what we want to do is to give you enough value where it's less than, you know,
	it ends up being about seven dollars a month along with this mug and more shows that you want that
	you were already watching anyway.
	Not all of them will be home runs for you, not every show here will be for you, but our goal
	with every single new sign up is more content, more impact, and more independence. We will never,
	ever be dependent on big tech again.
	If you see these doors shutter at some point in time, and when it's curtains, and that day will come at some point, it will be because you decide that you don't want to watch this anymore.
	You decide that the network, that Mug Club, isn't something that's of value.
	And by the way, I'm okay with that.
	We will never close these doors because YouTube, Facebook Meta, or even Twitter, X, sorry, it's hard to know all these changing names, say, hey, you're not allowed a seat at the table.
	You decide if we stay or go, and I would much rather be serving you being beaten.
