| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
🎵 Outro Music 🎵 🎵 Door Opening 🎵
🎵 Oh gal, won't you come out tonight 🎵 Come out tonight, come out tonight.
Buffalo gals, won't you come out tonight?
And dance by the light of the moon.
Hey!
Say, Mary, what did you wish for when you threw that rock?
Oh, no.
Mary, you can tell me.
No, if I told you, it wouldn't come true.
Come on, Mary, what do you want?
Do you want the moon?
Just say the words and I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it right down.
No, I don't believe in the moon.
Mary, that's not a bad idea.
You'd swallow it.
You don't believe in the moon.
No.
Mary, what on earth are you talking about?
It's right there.
It's obvious.
You can tell just by looking at it.
It's a two-dimensional object.
Well, I bet you think the Earth is a globe.
Now, wait a minute.
Wait just a minute, Mary.
Hold on.
A two-dimensional... Mary, we sent a man up there on that moon.
He went up and climbed through outer space.
Oh, you don't really believe that crap, do you?
Don't believe what?
What in God's great earth am I hearing, Mary?
I think you hit your head in the bushes over there.
That's the moon.
Oh, look at all the photos they show us.
Where are the stars?
The shadows are all wrong.
Okay, now you listen here, Mary.
Old Glory is flying high up on that moon.
Oh, now that's the biggest lie of all.
If we had really planted that flag on the moon, it wouldn't be flapping in the wind.
Well, because there'd be no wind.
Well, that's because they designed a special flag for the photo, Mary.
It has a parallel beam perpendicular to the moon's surface.
Otherwise, the flag would just be... just be hanging there.
And you don't see the stars because of the camera exposure.
Cameras?
What cameras, George?
Did you see a camera reflecting off of Neil Armstrong's helmet when he took the selfie?
What in holy hell's a selfie?
Everything was staged to make America think we beat the Russians.
One giant leap for mankind, my behind.
Hey!
What are you waiting for?
Why don't you tell that broad the third law of thermodynamics?
Remember, none of this is possible without you.

Hey, before we move on with the show, we are going to have Alex Jones on this show and go through, of course, the new recent, I should say, not new, Colorado ruling.
This is the last standard daily live show of the year.
Tomorrow is the Christmas extravaganza special, whatever we call it, where Santa does some good around the community.
So if you just want something that's You know, heartwarming, non-political.
I often warn you and say this is a PG-13.
Just wanted to take this opportunity to let you know that tomorrow is absolutely a G program and it's something you can watch with your children.
And I need to say that because you're about to see the OG of cancelled comedy, Nick DiPaolo's stand-up reel, which is absolutely not rated G. But I wanted to take a moment to thank you guys here in the spirit of Christmas.
Hanukkah, Kwanzaa's not real.
To thank you, Mug Club, we launched this year the replatforming initiative, and because of you, the Nashville Manifesto happened.
That is entirely because of you and the investigative unit.
We can't do this without you.
Because of you, we brought on Nick DiPaolo, Alex Jones' show, of course, that you now get on Fridays, The Hodge Twins, Brian Callen, Mr. Guns and Gears, a contributor, and we are expanding.
And because of you, we get to continue doing this program.
Without having to serve corporate overlords.
As much as I know that sounds like some kid at Hot Topic who just read Karl Marx.
Look, everyone serves a master.
And in business, you serve a master.
And in life, you serve a master.
And I think that's important for us to remember here around Christmas.
Who are you serving in your personal life?
That's an answer that only you can give and one that you can choose.
That's a story of not only Christmas, Christ redeeming the world, but Christmas carol is like the fifth gospel to me.
It's about a man redeemed.
The Grinch is just another version about a man redeemed.
What kind of a God do we serve if we don't believe that people can change?
So if you think you need some change in your life, you can.
If there's someone in your life who you think won't change, they can.
Pray for them.
And you know what?
Right here, At Mug Club, we were in a spot where we definitely wanted some change, and this year was a year of a lot of change.
So Alex Jones, the network, the contributorships, Rumble.
The Manifesto, all of this is because of you.
And we can't thank you enough.
And of course, if you sign up, you get a copy of this children's book, Beautiful Differences, that I wrote as a love letter to my children, hopefully as a time capsule.
And it's a love letter to you guys.
You get it for free right now, between now and New Year's, with any sign up.
And that will help determine what we do going forward, including scripted series, other undercover projects that we are working on.
None of it happens without you.
And I don't say that as a sales pitch.
As much as I really do, from the bottom I think of everyone's heart here as a thank you.
We cannot do this without you.
We never would be able to.
Consider it a privilege, and it's been one hell of a year, and we've enjoyed every minute with this damn crew.
This is going to be a reel of one of our contributors here.
Of course, you can watch Nick DiPaolo, 5 p.m.
on weekdays.
Children should leave the room.
See him live while you still can, because he's getting up there in age.
Give it up for Nick DiPaolo!
Nick DiPaolo!
Nick DiPaolo!
The Vince Lombardi rest area.
That's the best we can do for the greatest coach in the history of the NFL.
A brick structure up to exit 13A where truckers who have been living on hooker p***y and beef jerky for 14 hours Can unload their impacted bowels.
Where gay guys can exchange filthy jobs at 3am.
And where pedophiles can come into the faces of terrified children.
You know, the shit that Vince Lombardi was for.
Africa's given some good shit.
Ebola, AIDS, Al Sharpton.
All the things in life that I love.
Hey, a round of applause from the predominantly white crowd.
Alright, let's see if they edit that out.
Why nobody's heard of me after 30 years.
All the funny shit gets cut on the floor.
To keep a guy from raping you, you should either urinate or vomit in front of him.
Every girl I f***ed in my twenties was puking and pissing herself.
She was s***faced.
That's how I knew I was gonna get laid.
You go to the emergency room, you need immediate care.
What do they make you do when you get there?
Wait!
This nurse comes out with this pissy attitude.
How you gonna pay for this?
I said, uh, with my f***ing life, if you don't pick up the pace.
You believe it like Ted Kennedy's liver.
Can I get a band-aid, thank you?
People surprised we have a gun problem.
How do you think we got the country in the first place?
In a slap fight?
Come on!
What do we do?
No be the Indians for the land?
Come on, sit and bowl, give it up.
Fifty bucks for Rhode Island.
Come on, give it up!
I'll burn a hole in your pig tails.
Thanks a lot, you guys are one hell of a crowd.
Thank you guys so much!
I had a great time.
I can't thank you people enough!
See The Funniest Man Alive live May 11th at the Count Basie Center for the Arts in Red Bank, New Jersey.
Don't miss Nick DiPaolo.
["Strange Animals"]
See if I were Nick DiPaolo I would go.
Huh?
Cut!
Sip for timing.
Sip for timing.
Sip and sit for timing.
Wow, that's a horrible start.
He said sip.
I thought he said sit.
My ear doesn't work.
I went in too deeply with a Q-tip.
You ever done that?
Hey, are there any ear doctors out there?
Comment below.
One told me that you are not supposed to use Q-tips at all.
Ever.
Which doesn't sound correct.
I think you should be able to use them.
I'm fine with it.
Well, yeah, but you're not a doctor.
Alright, bring up the rundown.
Today we are going to talk about Colorado basically trying to ban Trump.
Well, they have from there.
Why is it so loud?
Oh, because I was doing Piers Morgan yesterday, so I had to adapt everything.
Guys, let's make sure we just reset these to point zero because this was set to a, you know, pompous red coat.
We're talking about Colorado and whether it is constitutional.
They're arguments.
We will have a claim versus truth segment on that.
I don't know if you know this, migrants are now flying premium to New York City.
Yeah, business class.
Those miles add up.
Those miles add up.
They are platinum status.
We're gonna have Alex Jones as a guest and actually since we don't have The normal program tomorrow.
It's going to be Chat Wednesday.
Oh nice!
Which is usually Thursday, but it's Chat Wednesday.
Let me ask you this also.
What do you think is going through President Trump's mind right now as this is happening?
I can take a guess.
No, I'm not ready.
My vocal cords are not warmed up.
I'm not going to do it.
Horseshit!
No, no, no.
It's like celebrating good times.
His poll numbers are going to go up.
Oh my gosh, his poll numbers are going to go through the roof.
These folks do not understand the kind of martyr that they are making and this is not effective.
We'll talk about that and more here today.
Alex Jones will be on in a little bit.
How are you, Captain Morgan?
I'm doing well.
How are you, man?
Other than the Q-tip and, you know.
I'm good.
I'm good.
Other stuff?
Well, no, I'm fine.
You had dry lips earlier, you said.
I did have dry lips.
Do you find it when you get really dry lips, when it's the weather changes, it's hard to talk?
Because you're kind of doing like that.
Why do you have to do that for dry lips?
That's a dozen comments.
And in third chair, when you hear this, it means you love him.
You thank him for his service, first off.
Friday, March 1st, he's going to be at the Funny Bone in Des Moines, Iowa.
So, what else are you going to do?
Josh underscore Firestein, how are you, sir?
I'm good, and for the record, I love Iowa.
Come see me.
It's the best.
I've never been.
It's going to be so much fun.
You're in for a treat, my friend.
I knew a lady who went to college there once, and we're not friends, but...
She said nice things about it.
Yeah, no, I spent a week in Bettendorf overnight.
Bettendorf?
Yeah.
I bet you won't do it again.
Oh, come on now!
Sorry.
Wait, you spent a week in Bettendorf overnight?
Yeah, I was skimming over it, but you're ruining it.
Did you have a stroke?
May 11th.
No, that was on purpose.
I know, I'm kidding.
Because before the show, I told Kat Morgan, I said, I'm very tired today, so if I misspeak, my rule of thumb's like, just make fun of me, or if I say something that's incorrect, please just make fun of me, that way they can admonish me so that people don't think that I'm losing my fa- I'm running on a couple of hours sleep.
That's true.
And we have the awesome- WAKE UP!
Somebody just pulled their car into a bridge.
I hope those knocked the tears out of your eyes.
We were talking about that we're doing a year in review.
He was like, I was like, Yakuza, are you crying?
I've been taking caffeine supplements, and that's way better.
Way better.
By the way, have some smelling salts if you need them.
Also, May 11th, Count Basie Center for the Arts.
You get to go see the OG of canceled comedy, Nick DiPaolo in Red Bank, New Jersey.
Cannot recommend it, and I don't know how much longer he's going to tour.
He really likes doing this show and his show, and he's been doing it for, what, 30, 40 years.
He's the funniest stand-up comic alive, in my opinion.
Also, because many of you will feel this way at his show live, on our show here today is going to get a little bit rough, so if at any point you see... Head on over to Rumble.
Okay.
Yesterday, before I move on, I sat down, and I want to say actually, I sat down and I really did enjoy it.
You know, I don't like doing segments, I don't like sitting down on other people's shows because it's all just gotcha and a quadrant view.
I'd rather take my chance to sit down in a barbershop with Ten black guys who I know disagree with me because they have no reason to be dishonest and I have no incentive to be dishonest, whether it's a change my mind, whether it's talking with people, whether it's a conversation with a professor.
So I was apprehensive.
You know, I don't tend to do a lot of press, but Piers Morgan invited me on and I will say it ended up being a pretty productive discussion.
I appreciated it.
We were talking about free speech.
Alex Jones, you can go and watch the whole thing on his channel, but here's a brief look.
He knew the massacre had happened.
Incorrect.
That's incorrect.
Why do you hate it?
I hate it because I don't like Jeremy Corbyn, but I think he's a bombastic prick, but I also think that you should have let him finish speaking.
Why?
Because then he would express bad ideas.
That's why I support freedom of speech.
You think Soccer's gay?
Homosexual, yes.
You know what?
That's a whole other debate, Stephen Crowder.
Let's have a debate about whether soccer is gay.
And if it is, by the way, I would be happy to embrace its homosexual side.
Well, I know you would!
And to be clear, it was in good fun.
It was, yeah, you were messing around.
I was worried about cheap shots, you know, because it's fine if people do it.
I just, it's not so much that you're worried about someone taking a cheap shot on you, it's that you're worried that it's not going to be a conversation that benefits anyone.
You've heard me say I want to get out of this, want to get all of us out of this rhythm, out of this rhythm of chasing just a Twitter headline or clickbait or someone gets destroyed and actually have real conversations.
It's good that we're talking, but are we talking in the right way?
Now, he did not take I would argue, I think he was relatively fair.
Some people thought that he took a cheap shot with the David Duke thing.
I understand what he was doing with it.
I mean, sort of.
I'm appreciative.
Having done a lot of these interviews in the past, over a thousand, I appreciate the way it went.
And I, in preparing this, this is something you should know some Inside Baseball, I went over with Ginger Snap.
I said, look, we did a segment and Josh was in here and, you checking out your thread count?
No.
I'm sorry to distract you.
I think I got like powder from a donut on me or something.
I sat down with Ginger Snap and said, look, he's going to bring me on.
He has this tendency, or these reporters will have this tendency, or journalists, to just try and bring up some random tweet, or if I've ever said anything offensive.
I said, have I said anything particularly bad about Pierce?
And he said, no, not that I can think of.
And then I watched the one episode in question and went, oof.
I'm not saying it's right.
It's not right.
For example, it's not right for you to be a total prick.
But you have the... It's not right for you to do it, but you have the right.
You have the right to be a giant p***y boy, but it doesn't mean that it's right.
What did he say?
It can be.
Is it right?
And that you have the right.
You have the right to be a bloated p***bag.
I don't make it right, but you have the right.
Look, I'm more of a murderer.
I look at both sides, right?
Like, I see one side, you're a prick.
On the other side, you're an a**hole.
I can see both arguments to be made.
Get mate in the middle like the buttons there between your suit hanging on for dear life.
Clinging together.
I can hear you getting fatter.
You have the right to be a fat bastard.
Doesn't mean it's right.
I guess you missed a few, Ginger Snaps!
In fairness, you were being Count Dankula.
That was not you.
Look, we were joking about its...
It's Pierce Morgan interviewing a Scottish man named Count Dankula, who was who was fined in England, almost sent to prison for his dog lifting his paw, which they saw as a Nazi salute hate speech, being asked about Alex Jones being allowed on X, formerly Twitter, which was purchased by Elon Musk, who also posts dank memes.
Come on guys, if you can't laugh at that, you're missing the point in life.
Is that real?
That's why he was arrested?
That's why he was, yeah.
He was, yeah.
His pug went... My German Shepherd does high fives.
I'm gonna get him to do one and still frame it.
There you go.
Just skip the armband.
I will say this, and you know what, click the like button if you went and you saw the interview.
I think it's Pierce Morgan Uncensored is his show.
Let me know what you thought.
I will say this, he understands that that was a joke, which I appreciate.
A lot of people go, you know, if he said, well you called me a bloated pissbag, that's, that was out of context.
Uh, seen bad.
So I do appreciate that.
Even if someone doesn't think it's funny, they have to acknowledge that it was a joke.
And he didn't do that.
And, uh, I think that's a step in the right direction.
And I would like to have Piers Morgan out to the States.
Yeah, yeah.
Take him to a gun range.
Maybe he can take me to a soccer game.
You know, a little bit, uh, a little bit of odd couple action.
He's gonna be a little gay.
He'll show up like a pheasant hunting tweed.
Yeah.
Where are the hounds?
I'm just happy Piers Morgan got you to defend American football.
Yes, I know, I know, he did.
Well, he said they don't wear helmets.
It's like, because you can't touch each other.
I mean, in the locker room.
By the way, tomorrow is the Christmas program.
It's the annual Lotta with Crowder Christmas special.
It's The Crowder Gives Back, I guess is what it's called, I guess.
Well, anyways, it's where we just do some stuff for families, charity, we work with some veterans charities, and there was not a dry eye in the house, so we have to pre-tape that, because we actually went out and delivered some pretty significant gifts to some people in need, and it's all part of you, Mug Club.
You guys make it happen.
Hey, before we move on, it's time for, well I don't know if you know this, they brought
on a guy named Marshall Cohen on CNN to talk about Trump, and this brings us to CNN's weird
face of the day.
Alright, bring him up.
What is that?
He looks like he's in the wrong tribe at Hogwarts.
It's the ghost of Andy Dick. Yes it is! With bubbles!
🎵Music🎵 Well yeah, there was something better than that.
That's been CNN's Weird Face of the Day.
It's just, it's like, it's like they hired their contributors from Jim Henson's Creature Shop.
Human bar of soap.
You know, and by the way, I'm sure he's a nice guy.
It could be a fisheye camera.
I have no idea. Yeah, well...
He's got a stigma, doesn't he?
He goes in the optometrist and says, give me the kaleidoscopes.
Yeah.
I'm a little far away.
He just got out of the tanning salon, actually.
Did he?
Yeah, you should have seen him yesterday.
Wow.
Yikes.
It was like one of those fish in the ocean where there's no pigment, they're just completely transparent.
It's weird.
I'm far more scared of the deep ocean than I am of space.
Alright, let's talk about Colorado.
No, not weed.
We often hear at the show, you know, we rip on dictators like Xi Jinping or you just had to, you know, Maduro.
He just persecuted some political opponents.
It looks, though, like the United States.
Do we have a leg to stand on with this, when you see what we're doing?
Are we becoming a banana republic?
Genuinely.
Comment below.
I am concerned when I see this.
Now, I'm not necessarily concerned about the fallout, because I think I know how this likely ends.
I'm concerned about the actions that are being taken.
So, Tuesday night, and we are going to present to you a claim-truth segment, all references available at lotorthcreditor.com, why none of this makes sense, none of the left's arguments hold water, and if you disagree with me, I would be happy to read your comments below, and by that I mean have someone here read them.
Tuesday night, the Colorado Supreme Court, four to three, ruled that President Donald Trump, some people say former president, some people say sitting president, I say sitting president, okay?
They ruled that he is disqualified from being on the state's 2024 GOP ballot.
The Colorado Supreme Court ruling that Donald Trump has now been disqualified from being on the primary ballot for the GOP.
Again, this breaking news out of Colorado.
Donald Trump, as we know, is now was fighting to be able to be on that primary ballot.
The Colorado Supreme Court now issuing a 200 something page opinion that we've just got.
Yes, he was fighting.
He was toiled and struggled with a 35 point lead.
Oh, Colorado!
It took him 200 pages to write it?
I know.
It's an opinion, too, by the way.
Yeah.
And to be clear, let me just kind of give you a summary of their arguments and then dissect them point by point.
They're trying to say that Donald Trump committed an insurrection, which we know is not true.
They're trying to say that states can decide if a candidate is eligible for federal office.
That is also not true.
They're also trying to say that the presidents or potential presidents of the United States are subject to the Insurrection Clause of the 14th Amendment, Section 3, 14th Amendment.
None of it actually makes sense and this is how you definitely, this is why I think he's also gaining so much ground with black Americans.
They believe that the judicial system has been weaponized against them.
And I will say that there is truth to that.
I just don't necessarily believe that it's racial.
I think it has been in the past.
I think today the concern of the weaponized judicial system is far more about class, and really not just class wealthy and poor, I mean elites in power.
Because you have people who are elites in power who make far less than some other people who they prosecute, who they persecute, and that's just because of your political affiliation or if you happen to speak against the ruling class.
Now of course, not to be outdone as as quizlings or lackeys for the left, I was thrilled and proud to be in America.
they were ready to gloat.
We had a whole show planned, my friend, and that is completely upended.
This is what we're talking about now.
I am in front of festooned with papers in front of me.
There are very few sort of magic spells that you cast that make a complex and difficult
problem go away.
I was thrilled and proud to be in America.
The opinion by the Colorado Supreme Court.
Is that guy doing something below the camera that we shouldn't be seeing?
It's a cavalcade of weird faces.
I'm very pleased that the rule of law was vindicated by the Colorado Supreme Court in this way.
It's a cavalcade of weird faces and I say this as someone, look, I'm no George Clooney, but those are weird.
Yeah, that guy's nose was really distracting from any point he was making.
And he had, like, reverse bags under his eyes.
Oh, I didn't notice that.
I don't know how that... Go back!
Just show us still.
It's the reverse... Yeah!
Look at this.
It's reverse eye bags.
Oh, yeah.
They come out.
They're on top and bottom.
I don't know how that works.
He looks like a cartoon bad guy without the mustache.
I can't remember which guy it is.
That's the last time you'll try an insurrection on my watch, Donald Trump.
Yes, that's the guy I'm thinking of.
So let's go through the claims that they're making.
But first, let me ask you, why do you think, the why matters, why are they trying so hard to get Donald Trump out of the primary?
They always said he was the easiest guy to beat.
If that's the case, you should want... Remember the conspiracy theory?
They want Trump to be on the ticket so they can beat him.
They're rigging the polls.
I don't think it holds water because they wouldn't be making up, trumping up these charges.
Forgive the pun because I didn't intend it.
So here's a claim that they are making, which is unequivocally false, that Donald Trump led an insurrection.
Colorado, the Supreme Court, declaring former President Donald Trump ineligible for the
White House under the U.S. Constitution's insurrection clause and removed him from the
state's primary presidential ballot.
Here's the truth.
And it's so obvious that I had to go over this with everyone here today.
I just want to make sure, right, he has not been charged with insurrection or sedition anywhere.
So they're saying that he basically forfeits his right to be on, based on a charge that he's never even been hit with.
Much less convicted of.
Exactly.
And no right to defend himself.
Right, exactly.
And had the opportunity to go and say, actually, that's wrong, and here's the physical evidence, which will show some of it.
They're saying, well, actually, you're not allowed to run for president because you're a murderer.
I'm like, what?
Well, we said so.
I said, well, we know you weren't convicted.
You say, I was never charged of murder.
When did I do murder?
And they say, well, we think you could have.
Bullshit.
He hasn't been convicted of any crime.
He has not been charged with sedition.
He has not been charged with leading an insurrection.
By the way, the sham federal election interference case doesn't even happen until March, just to be clear.
Yeah, it doesn't include that charge.
He specifically left that charge out.
Yes, when you say he.
Smith, Mr. Smith.
Because he knew he couldn't convict of that, or there's no chance of it.
No, there's no chance of it.
It's like Teddy Roosevelt running into battle on a horse with a flag in his hand.
Yes.
And this is how you know there's the Court of Public Opinion.
And unfortunately, the courts can be used specifically to manipulate the Court of Public Opinion.
You think that judges, you think that lawyers, you think prosecutors don't know that it would be relevant that he has not been charged?
Of course they know!
That's why they want to get this out so that people like Joy Reid, Rachel Maddow, whoever is in the newest online podcast, will parrot the point.
And because of the insurrection clause, So people assume, they fill in that gap and go, well I guess Donald Trump must have committed an insurrection.
Never happened, hasn't been charged with it.
The Colorado court has used Donald Trump's January 6th speech as really the justification for his decision.
It says, uh, in his speech, which began around noon, President Trump persisted in rejecting the election results, telling his supporters that, quote, we won in a landslide and we will never concede.
He urged his supporters to confront this egregious assault on our democracy, to walk down to the Capitol, ellipses, show strength, and that if they did not fight like hell, they would not have a country anymore.
Isn't it interesting that they say walk down the Capitol, and then something yadda yadda yadda, show strength.
Well, let me tell you yadda yadda yadda, here's the part they conveniently left out from President Trump's speech.
Know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.
Today we will see whether Republicans stand strong for integrity of our elections.
And that is from that exact speech, just to be clear.
But just to provide some more context, all references available at lateralwithcreditor.com, link in the description.
If you think we're just pulling one soundbite out of context, here's some more examples.
We have to have peace.
We have to have law and order.
We have to respect our great people in law and order.
My focus now turns to ensuring a smooth, orderly, and seamless transition of power.
This moment calls for healing and reconciliation.
I said, peacefully and patriotically.
Be peaceful, be patriotic.
It's the day after, it's the day of, like, this is him.
The only reason that this became an issue is because of the media and because of a lower court ruling which basically was being appealed to the Supreme Court of Colorado and the lower court screwed up in saying that he did engage in insurrection and that's one of the things they're trying to base this off of and it's like, again, not charged with it there, even in the lower court, and they can't adjudicate that anyway.
They want you to believe that after that clip he goes, I had my fingers crossed.
No taxis, backseats, holly, holly, oxen free.
All the words.
What is he, the guy carrying the three-foot gallows that were intended for Mike Pence?
Like, he's under there like, alright, keep going, guys!
By the way, that was the only weapon they brought.
Right.
The only weapon they brought was an indecision.
Zero weapons, only a couple people died from the actual riots, the actual rioters, and then a couple police officers.
Only one person was shot.
Who conveniently killed themselves, as Democratic inconveniences do.
Yeah, yeah, it happens a lot, and I mean, you know, I just say don't get close to the Clintons.
But I don't know.
I can't prove that.
Here's another claim.
They killed people.
Now... That's the truth.
Murdered a guy.
Clinton, he murdered a guy.
They are claiming, and by they I mean the left and the media, they're trying to claim that a state court can decide that President Trump committed federal insurrection.
Colorado law allows for these challenges to occur very quickly.
We had a, you know, tried a case, argued an appeal.
We, of course, know that the Supreme Court is a likely destination for this decision, and we're ready to present our arguments and optimistic about their review of the Colorado court's careful and thoughtful approach to both the facts and the law here.
Okay, truth.
Mr. Retarded Bizarro World Hugh Grant, that makes zero sense.
Not at all.
So let me provide some guidance here.
Let's keep this in mind, right, Cheryl?
You know this well.
The 14th Amendment, it's part of the Reconstruction Amendments, okay?
This was designed to bar former Confederate officials from holding office.
You know those former Confederate officials who literally took up arms and tried to kill everybody they disagreed with in the North to take power, also known as an insurrection.
I don't know that any of those guys, those Confederate officials, gave a speech and said, guys, peacefully go to Washington!
We want slaves!
We want all the slaves!
They didn't do that.
They picked up rifles and formed militias and an army and had a new capital and a new
president put in place.
You mispronounced Democrats.
Ah, yes.
My apologies.
So the idea that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment is just for each state, and I say this as
someone who believes in states' rights, just to be clear.
In this case, it's nonsense that they have the right to decide.
This would basically mean that... Okay, let me give you an example, because it was meant to bar former Confederates, okay?
It would mean that former Confederate states could have simply loaded their ballots with slave traders.
Yeah.
Think about that.
That's what they could have done.
No, this is a national election.
That's where it's appropriate, where there has to be some kind of national, federal oversight, because this is the president of the entire country.
Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, of course, would not apply here.
By the way, just to give you some context, too, as it relates to slavery, the Emancipation Proclamation was written in 63.
It only reached Galveston in 65, so not all the slaves were free.
They didn't know that they were free, but That's only because the carrier pigeon was racist as shit.
A lot of people don't know that.
That changed.
And it was a time-traveling racist pigeon.
That's dangerous.
That's bread from all kinds of different decades.
This comes down to when people say, I just take all issues on an individual basis.
If you don't have a worldview, you don't have a fundamental understanding, for example, of federalism, of states' rights, of the Constitution, of what actually falls under the legitimate purview of government, certainly electing National office would apply.
A military would apply.
The federal government's role really is limited to keeping us safe from exterior, interior threats, ensuring that everyone is following the law, playing by the rules, and outside of that, keep their whistle in their pocket.
This would fall under that, especially when you have rogue judicial systems acting where they are and violating Basic fundamental rights.
Here is actually even a noted anti-Trumper, and he's also a part-time janitor between the Rocky Bullwinkle cartoons, John Bolton explaining why the Colorado court's decision makes no sense.
The idea that 50 different state courts can decide a question involving the highest elective office in the executive branch, interpreting the federal constitution as to what constitutes an insurrection against the federal government, Uh, is, is incoherent.
A small amount of money here that the Supreme Court, uh, if it gets to the merits of this, if it has to, uh, will reverse.
There's, there's no other logical way you can, uh, apply this and, and it would sow chaos in elections as far as the eye could see.
Watch out.
This guy hates Donald Trump.
If there was ever a moment for him to come out and do a victory lap, this would be the time.
And even this guy who hates Donald Trump is like, this is stupid guys.
You can't do this.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's what we need.
But then you have people like Joy Reid and Rachel Maddow going out and like, yeah, this is great.
I can't believe it!
And Jamie Raskin's going out and doing the same thing.
It's like, you have no integrity at all.
You don't care about democracy.
You just want to win at all costs.
That's all it is.
I say, let him do it.
It's horrible.
It's going to make him more popular.
You thought Teflon Don was bad?
Oh man.
he's immune to armor-piercing bullet stuns. Do you have any idea what you are going to do to
Donald Trump? How you are going to build him up when you do this? All it takes is a slight amount,
just a very slight amount of education for people to understand the Constitution,
what is going on here, and they go, oh, okay, I see what's happening here.
How egregious this is from the court, and we'll get down to this in a minute.
They stayed their own decision because they know it's crap.
Yes, of course.
It isn't going to go into effect.
Well, this brings us to another claim here.
That claim is that Section 3, we kind of touched on it, of the 14th Amendment gives the court the right to remove Trump.
Do you think he's swatting away peckers underneath?
Save it for the Senate room!
amendment of the US Constitution. Specifically, Section 3 says no officers
of the country can have engaged in insurrection. The court essentially found
that Trump engaged in insurrection and reversed a lower court ruling that
presidents are not subject to Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, saying they are
subject to Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.
Do you think he's swatting away peckers underneath my arm?
Save it for the Senate room!
Save it for the meeting room!
Gives me something to look forward to.
Delayed gratification.
So here's the truth.
This amendment does not apply to Donald Trump at all.
Let me actually read you the text from section 3.
No person shall be a senator or representative in Congress or elector of the president and vice president or hold any office civil or military under the United States or under any state who Having previously taken an oath as a member of Congress or as an officer of the United States, and then it goes on to say, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.
So, Section 3 disqualifies officers who engage in insurrection.
Again, something with which he has never been charged.
And a position he never held.
Right.
That's another important point.
The lower court in this case actually defined this, right?
They said that President Trump, or at least presidents in general, sir, I do not meet the definition of officer.
This comes from Courthouse News.
We'll make the references available for you.
Says to lump the presidency in with any other civil or military office is odd indeed and very troubling to the court.
Because this was written by Dickens.
The drafters Right.
But.
So that's the lower court.
Read the rest of what the lower court wrote, and I mentioned it a minute ago.
They said, yes, he did participate in insurrection.
So this court doesn't like Donald Trump.
This court found something that wasn't even really a question right here that they could handle, and they said, yeah, this is odd to say that this would even apply.
Yeah, but he did the insurrection.
Right.
I don't understand what the hell is going on in Colorado.
Please make it simple for us to understand.
I understand exactly what's going on.
They're contradicting their own rulings, though.
Well, that's true.
That's what they did with Alex Jones.
I was talking with Pierce Morgan about this, where he goes, well, he was guilty.
The judge declared him guilty before it went to a trial.
Yeah, and people try to say, well, they had to default because he didn't provide information.
No, he provided all of his financials, he handed over texts with Alex Jones, what they said was, you need to know this context, they said, how much money did you make off of the Sandy Hook conspiracy?
22 minutes over 8,000 hours of broadcast when the suit was filed.
10,000 hours by the time the case actually started, or the hearing, the trial actually started.
How do you calculate that?
And by the way, even if you calculate it, it certainly wouldn't be many multiples more than your entire business has made throughout its entire history.
Take the number.
What was their profit during that period of time?
22 minutes.
Make a percentage.
They didn't.
The judge declared him guilty because he didn't hand over the financials specifically on how much money was made exactly in relation to Sandy Hook.
That would be like someone asking me, how much money did you make here?
How much money of Mug Club went to the period of time that you dedicated to, you know, teasing Pierce Morgan?
I don't know!
It's hard to figure out.
It's more than I remember, probably.
It's more than I remember, probably.
I remember most of the teasing.
Pretty sure if we go back through the years, oof.
Here's actually even an anti-Trump lawyer, Ty Cobb, summing up why the court, this is an anti-Trump lawyer, the court was wrong.
His name's Ty Cobb?
Yeah, yeah, and he looks like the photo negative of the rent is too damn high guy.
Yeah, the real key issue in this case.
Is Trump an officer of the United States in the context in which that term is used in Article 3 of the 14th Amendment?
And in 2010, Chief Justice Roberts explained in Free Enterprise, Um, that, um, that people don't vote for officers of the United States.
Article two officers of the United States is commonly understood in the Constitution to refer to appointed officials.
And I understand that it's hard for you to take someone who looks that silly seriously.
And it's kind of like almost Santa Claus.
Santa that's losing his hair.
I understand the problem.
It's like what I'll do sometimes when I grow my beard out and I go, I'm going to shave it off.
But in the interim, I'm going to look very stupid.
Looks like he's playing Sheriff at Tombstone later this afternoon or something.
He looks like one of the Confederates they would have tried to keep on the ballot.
General Cobb, would you say... Yes!
Well, and maybe Research can pull this up for me really quickly, but I think they even tried to keep Abraham Lincoln off the ballot.
Research, pull it up for the Confederacy!
They did, I think in maybe four or five states, maybe more than that.
This kind of thing is insane, and look, I mentioned this just a second ago, but they actually stayed their own judgment.
You've got the quote from them right here.
These guys know, and listen, challenging it to the Supreme Court doesn't mean he actually has to be heard by the Supreme Court.
He literally, all he has to do is go, yeah we're challenging this and file the paperwork, and he's still on the ballot.
That's how they wrote this.
They gave him until I think January 4th to be able to actually do that.
This is for the Court of Public Opinion.
They want this story to go out there as in the court of public opinion, which is also really dumb because it's only going to strengthen him.
So, exactly.
That's what happens next, right?
Case is going to head to the Supreme Court.
This is from the ruling.
Therefore, to maintain the status quo pending any review by the U.S.
Supreme Court, we stay our ruling until January 4th, 2024.
If review is sought in the Supreme Court before the state expires January 4th, 2024, then the state shall remain in place.
The Secretary will continue to be required to include President Trump's name.
on the 2024 presidential primary ballot until the receipt of any order or mandate from the
Supreme Court.
So let me just wrap this up for you, okay, why this is bogus.
Trump did not commit an insurrection.
He hasn't been charged with trying to commit an insurrection at all.
And states cannot decide if someone is eligible for federal office no matter what they try and say as it relates to the Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.
The insurrection clause, even if that were the case, does not apply to presidents according to the Colorado's own writings.
The Colorado court's own writings.
I don't know if it was ruling or if it was just their opinion.
It's hard to tell.
But either way, it sounds like someone's writing a tale of two cities.
Here's why they're doing this.
And they just keep shooting themselves in the foot.
Donald Trump is leading in the polls and the left is scared shitless, okay?
Now in the RCP average, he's at three points over Biden in this exact same time.
Uh, this time of the year, in 2019, Biden was up by 4.4.
Now, keep in mind, this is keeping outlier polls off the RCP average, but the outlier poll is NBC, or ABC, Washington Post, that had him up, I believe, by 11, and the New York Times poll that had him up, I think, by another 8 or 9.
So, they're not even consistent, the RCP average, in including polls, because in the past, they haven't always eliminated outliers, or their definitions have changed.
Right now, if the election were held, it wouldn't even be close.
This is all part of the same message.
Hey, you're alone.
You're isolated.
There are more of them than you.
There are not.
Yeah, and look, this doesn't even take into account what's about to come down the pipe from the next polls that are coming out.
I mean, I can't imagine how his popularity is soaring.
The fundraising that he's doing on this already.
The free media that he is getting 24-7 right now from this.
The guy can just basically just sit there.
He should do a rally in Colorado.
We actually do know how they're going to react to future polls.
We got an art we have a DeLorean here and we actually do have a future CNN reaction to polls three months from now
I think it'll be worse than that It would be, it would be, oh them.
Oh them, oh them.
Oh gosh, oh them.
Everywhere.
This bitter woke, they just wanted to ruin your Christmas.
They want to sow division and then blame you for dividing the country and say, can't we find some common ground?
Not when you do this.
Not when you do this.
They can do it to anybody.
So don't lose sleep over this.
It's not going to stand and don't let the left gaslight you into believing that somehow You're in some small fringe minority because the polls show that you're not, that they are, and their ratings are dying.
And all these shenanigans, by the way, may make you feel like you're in uncertain times.
Which is why, though, even though you're not in uncertain times right now, it pays to be prepared.
It's a good idea.
And that's why here, one of our very few sponsors, last of the year, with Patriot Supply, we have...
Gerald, what happened to the Patriot Supply?
Who in the world would dig into your Patriot Supply?
I am so sorry.
I owe you a thousand slichas about what happened.
Slichas?
This better not be another one of your Hanukkah things.
No, it's not.
In fact, you said you loved my mom's sufganiyot that she baked for you.
Well, it's no gingerbread.
No.
What, you still have some more of them?
Just leave them on my desk.
Is there a reason that you barged in here, Sam?
Oh, yes, I'm so sorry.
Let me please explain.
It was late on Friday afternoon, and everyone but Gary and myself went home early.
Russian gear!
You know me.
Nose to the grindstone.
Gary was obviously napping under Gerald's desk.
We found ourselves in quite the predicament when the alarm set and the doors locked.
Wait, wait!
Why didn't you disarm the alarm?
I forgot the code, but that's not the important part.
When Gary woke up, we both were quite peckish and found your bucket of My Patriot Supply.
We determined that it was indeed an emergency, so we dug in.
Again, my apologies.
I kibitzed with Gary, and we put our funds together to buy you a replacement at prepwithcrowder.com.
I'm sorry I'm late.
Leave us alone, Steven.
I'm sorry.
Here's your new bucket of My Patriot Supply.
We're in the middle of a show.
Josh, I'm sorry about this.
I'm sorry.
Here's your new bucket of My Patriot's Plight.
Okay, thank you.
Oh, that was nice.
Well, that's great.
That bounces.
What is going on here, Russian Gear?
What is this?
This past weekend, Sam and I had an amazing conversation, and it all started to make sense.
My eyes have been opened to the beauty of the Hebrew language and the Jewish religion.
The teaching, the lifestyle, a closeness to God one can only feel as part of the chosen people.
And of course, the greatest holiday traditions and foods.
The Gefilte, it's amazing.
I think you'd be really interested.
Here, take a pamphlet.
No, I don't.
Get out.
Just, no.
Get out.
You too, Sam.
Go.
But I... No, you may not add anything.
Leave.
Shalom, Steven.
Shalom, whatever.
Have a good Hanukkah.
Alright.
PrepWithGrotter.com.
You get to save $60 right now.
On a four-week emergency food kit.
Again, do you not have to be a prepper or believe there's going to be some kind of crap hit the fan scenario?
You ever been through an earthquake?
You ever been through an ice storm?
Have you been through an election or an insurrection?
Just kidding, none of us have.
Can I take a look at that pamphlet?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, stop, Josh.
It's actually just a good Rx coupon.
You mean you can save me money and you didn't tell me?
Fine.
I had to mention the fact that GoodRx exists!
Watch, he's going to be running our banks after he gets through that.
Oh no.
By the way, I know that- Thank you, I've been looking for a reason to not do stuff around the house on Saturdays.
Well, it's mostly Friday night to Saturday shutdown.
My wife's always asking me to do this and that and this and that.
Wow!
You say I'm one of the chosen people over here.
Look at me!
Not her.
I won't let her read this.
No, no, no, no.
I'll let my women read.
No, it's not a gentile like her.
But prepwithcrowder.com.
By the way, they sent me some more oatmeal, so they're a great sponsor, and it's the best deal that you have going on that.
I know you can buy other stuff, but honestly, I haven't seen a better deal.
No.
Not just saying that!
When was the last time we did a sponsorship on this show?
It's been many, many weeks.
Yeah, definitely a couple weeks.
Yeah.
These people actually came out from Spokane to the Green Room.
Oh yeah!
They were like, here, we have a bunch of- but they gave me way too much of the oatmeal and pudding.
I was like, I appreciate it, but like, this is way too much.
Well, don't worry, I took care of it.
Yeah, you did.
Do they have mashed potatoes?
I don't even know.
Josh?
I don't know.
We're getting off the beam here.
Okay, fine.
By the way, Mug Club, consider joining.
Since this is a high point.
You get more of this.
Let's talk about this.
The migrants, I don't know if you know this, this week, so going back to Donald Trump, let's set this up, President Trump told his audience at a rally that illegals were poisoning our country, which of course caused people to lose their minds.
We got a lot of work to do.
They're poisoning the blood of our country.
That's what they've done.
They poison mental institutions and prisons all over the world, not just in South America, not just the three or four countries that we think about, but all over the world.
They're coming into our country from Africa, from Asia, all over the world.
They're pouring into our country.
Nobody's even looking at them.
They just come in.
The crime is going to be tremendous.
The terrorism is going to be terrorism is going to be.
And we built a tremendous piece of the wall.
Tremendous.
He said tremendous a lot there.
Tremendous.
I think he even said tremendous terrorism.
He needed his thesaurus.
Tremendous in a bad way, though.
So a video just went viral showing a flight from Phoenix, and we're going to get into some of the context here.
But you may have seen this video.
There was a flight, I believe it was from Phoenix to New York City, packed to the brim with some unruly illegal migrants who apparently got all the premium seats.
Are you tired of paying too much for flights?
Sick of all those extra fees from other airlines?
Then fly Spirit.
At Spirit Airlines, we cut out the extras to save you money.
Our planes are nice and new, too.
So why pay more?
Save money and fly in style with Spirit Airlines.
Book your flight today at Spirit.com.
Sorry, I don't know how that commercial got in there.
We run a commercial agency here.
That's true.
By the way, that was Rejected.
This is the actual clip.
I'm at the Phoenix airport right now.
I'm waiting to board my flight to New York to JFK and it looks like we have a whole lot of migrants who are also boarding this flight that the US taxpayers are paying for.
This is what the US taxpayers are paying for right here.
Premium seats.
So the lady who posted that was Ashley St.
Clair.
She tweeted out, or X'd out, whatever.
Shipping them out to New York City because guess what?
Everywhere else is that capacity so they have these sanctuary cities like New York that they're now shipping
these migrants to that We're all paying for
So the lady pose that was Ashley st. Clair. She tweeted out or X doubt whatever
Yeah, she said when I asked a Delta representative if this was the case her response was what does it matter?
They're humans too now look Before I get into the information that I think is pretty
important here I am NOT going to say that this country has been
historically without discrimination, right? Yeah That is not lost on us, just to be clear.
Also, Hitler bad.
We all know that before we get into a conversation regarding illegal immigration.
But we are not above apologizing, recognizing when the United States was wrong.
For example, I've had to re-examine some of my favorite holiday classics through a different,
more modern lens.
We really should have seen it at the time.
That was the director's cut.
That one's on us.
If the Wet Bandits saw that, they'd have been gone.
That one is, you know, we were maybe tone-deaf.
A little bit back then.
I still like it, though.
We're better now.
The investigative journalist Taylor Hansen also, this is a little while ago, revealed how a lot of these migrants are
gaming the quote-unquote asylum system.
So you would say you came here for a better economic opportunity?
Economic and social status.
Social status, ok.
Okay.
Uh, can you say that again?
No.
Wow.
Simply for work.
Now, just to be clear, when people say asylum seekers, we have very clear definitions as to what asylum is.
Economy is not one of them.
Economy is not one of them.
Did you just interview one of those racist whites?
Yeah.
That speak Spanish?
Yes.
Now just to be clear, when people say asylum seekers, we have very clear definitions as
to what asylum is.
Economy is not one of them.
Economy is not one of them.
Religious persecution, you know, if you have, for example, a political ruling class who
executes political opponents, and you're supposed to go to the next nearest country who will
take you in to provide you asylum.
When they say, no, no, no, we just want money, that is not a reason for asylum.
And certainly not a reason to give away free benefits, to be clear.
Now, let me also give you some other numbers here that are relevant before you say, these people are humans too.
Yeah, you know who else is a human?
The mom was screaming triplets who's just trying to get home to Pennsylvania for Christmas for some turkey and homemade pumpkin pie.
That person had to pay for the flight.
This is where America first comes in.
It doesn't mean everybody else last.
It doesn't mean that we're racist.
It means, no, no, no, Americans who pay these tax dollars shouldn't be giving them to people who are not fleeing persecution but want to benefit from the social safety nets to which they have no right.
Let me give you some other stats.
These illegal immigrants They often have no set court date, just to be clear.
These are asylum seekers.
Asylum seekers who you just saw said they're not seeking asylum.
They said, are you seeking asylum?
Their answer was K. Yes, I want dental.
So roughly 40% never attend their court date anyway.
Think about that.
They often have no set court date.
If they do, 40% don't attend.
Now let me give you some stats on the Biden administration and illegal immigration.
The Biden administration has allowed over 200,000 illegal immigrants to fly into the United States and be paroled.
Wow.
And this is a new number.
It shocked me this morning because we gave you the last high watermark.
Tuesday.
Now I say that because I know you're thinking, Also Wednesday?
No.
Two days?
Exactly.
No.
Incorrect.
No.
Just this Tuesday, the day being Tuesday, Tuesday being the day in question, one day, 12,600 illegal crossings.
That's the worst day ever in recorded American history.
If you were to average that out to a daily number, it would come to 4.5 million people.
In a year.
That's the population of Louisiana or Kentucky added every year.
12-5, that's more than the Portland Trailblazers had this week.
Yes!
I don't understand the sports reference.
Small arenas.
Oh, okay, I get it.
Is it?
Is it 12-5?
They're like 15-16, but they don't pack it out.
We had a small hockey league in Grand Rapids and they got more than that.
Yeah, well, it's a popular sport then.
Yeah, that's kind of the point.
Sorry I interrupted you with such a... My brain short-circuited.
No, no, I just don't get... I don't know.
Everyone else knows.
You should admonish me.
I just pulled a Gerald and ruined a sports joke.
I don't ruin sports jokes.
I ruin other jokes.
What sport is the Portland Trailblazers?
It's basketball.
NBA.
So an arena full of people came on yesterday.
In one day.
There we go.
And by the way, this affects you, the massive influx of people who have no business being here.
And by the way, I would say the same thing if they were Swedish and white.
Cause train traffic to be halted from Mexico.
The economic group I spoke with tells me that these two rail closures are not just going to impact
border cities or larger cities that are seeing an increase in migrants like Chicago or New York.
These two rail closures are also going to impact the entire country, anywhere that businesses
receive goods from Mexico, because those goods are going to take much longer to get to their
destination now. Hit the like button if not only do you want to see Donald Trump deport every last
one of them on day one, but you will no longer even entertain the idea of being shamed into
feeling racist because you think we need to have border security.
That's where I am.
Remember when it used to be, hey, hold on a second, you know, what do we do with the Dreamers, the Anchor Babies?
And so Republicans capitulated, alright, those kids didn't do anything.
It's not about that when you have over 12,500, I think 12,600 people in one day.
Don't talk to me about Anchor Babies.
This is what the left will often do and you cannot allow them to do.
They'll do it, for example, with abortion.
Let's say, what about rape and incest?
Here's what you do.
And people will often say, why would you make those exceptions?
I'm not!
I'm making an argument.
You say, okay, alright, alright.
If we allow exceptions for rape and incest, would you ban all other abortions?
Well, no.
Well, then don't do that.
Then don't try and bring it up.
That's not the argument you're making.
Don't allow them to frame you in.
When they say, what about babies who were born here?
You say, okay, hold on a second.
If we allowed babies who were born here Within these very limited parameters to have a path to citizenship, would you deport everyone?
Well, no!
That would be cruel!
Then don't bring up the babies who were born here!
Don't allow yourself to be taken off course because then they say, see?
You're a racist.
See?
You hate women.
None of that is true!
12,600 people who have no business being here are getting free flights, sorry, cross the border, thousands of them getting free flights, not even attending their court dates, and they're not even seeking asylum!
Hold on a second.
You're a racist if you say, I don't believe that the people who are coming here for free shit, how do I know?
Because they say they're coming here for free shit, shouldn't be able to take the free shit that I pay for!
What's the shit that I worked for?
That's what they do though.
They attack your character so they can delegitimize your opinion or delegitimize your point of view.
Exactly.
Oh, racist.
Okay.
How about this?
Here's another solution.
No more social safety nets for anyone at all outside of disability.
How about that?
None.
Then it's not a problem.
Then you can have open borders.
Of course no one wants to do that.
No.
It's a very, very different world when you have more and more.
This is the multi-pronged approach.
Promise more free things.
So let me just walk you through the life here of someone taking all the bennies from a leftist.
Okay, come to this country.
Don't attend your court date.
All right, you get to work under the table because you likely won't pay taxes.
Okay, you never get deported.
Then maybe you go to school.
You have your student loans forgiven.
COVID happens.
You don't pay your rent.
You get that forgiven.
Every single contributing member of society who is not on the social safety net is being screwed along the way.
Think about that.
Taxpayer all across that whole personal journey as you eat, pray, love across the free shit in this land that you're not entitled to.
School?
Well, they lose money.
Don't worry, the taxpayer will pick it up.
Medical expenses?
Medical expenses?
Just walk out of the emergency room.
They can't track you.
Don't worry, the taxpayer will pick it up.
Rent?
No, rent forgiveness.
Don't worry.
The landlord will lose the property.
Good news is Vanguard BlackRock will be ready to buy it up.
They didn't get forgiveness.
And don't worry, you'll be able to vote without ID because IDs are racist.
And don't worry, the taxpayer will pick it up.
Think about that.
You have migrants that are flying across the country.
We don't even know where they're flying.
They're not seeking asylum.
They're mostly grown men.
Nothing is being done to stop it.
It's an invasion!
This is an invasion.
I'm not saying an invasion of brown or of black.
When people talk about the replacement theory, I know that some white supremacists have co-opted that and tried to turn it into a race thing.
Like I've said, I would take ten patriotic, naturalized citizens from Uganda over one socialist from Finland.
But let's be clear about this.
It's a plan to replace American taxpayers, contributors, Blue-collar people, too.
conservative with people who come here for free stuff. It's buying their votes.
It is replacing contributors with purchased votes. That's what the
replacement is. It is replacing contributors with purchased votes.
Blue-collar people too. Conservative, mostly.
That's another thing. They say blue-collar. Those people vote Democrat.
No, not if they pay taxes, not if they have families.
That's the thing.
Isn't it kind of crazy where people say, well as people get older they tend to become more conservative?
Well, as people pay taxes, they tend to become more conservative.
Well, as people have children, they tend to become more conservative.
Hold on a second.
That's why the left has to paint those things as anything other than a virtue.
Wait a second.
We used to respect and honor our elders.
In other words, if we notice a trend where as people get older, they become more conservative, as people have families and contribute more to society, they tend to develop a worldview.
And this happens with every generation.
Once they cross over, maybe there's something there.
Instead, we pander to people who've done none of those things, or people who aren't seeking asylum, they just want free shit.
That's the replacement theory.
The replacement is replacing contributors with purchased votes.
That's why the New York Times ran that story about whatever Ben Shapiro's bluey knockoff is.
They're upset because the father was too present.
Oh, really?
The father's too present and takes too much interest in his kids' lives.
And that's bad for America.
Yeah, they should do another Home Depot commercial where the dad gets caught in the blinds because he doesn't know what he's doing and there's a gay voice over the top of it.
Is this lumber or steel?
I have no idea.
Is it a softwood?
Pine is a softwood, by the way.
My desk split one time.
Hey, also, I know that you are going to see Josh and Nick, but Brian Callen, also a member of Mug Club, he's going to be at the Comedy Zone in Charlotte, North Carolina on December 29th, 30th, and 31st.
His show, of course, Off Limits, is every week on Mug Club.
So you get a lot of content here on Mug Club, and we're working on some pretty Pretty high-level investigations.
Do we have Alex Jones here on the line?
I know we're a little bit... Yeah, we see him.
Is he here?
Alright, so you know what?
I talked about him and hopefully was fair but also defended my friend in what was a respectful interview yesterday, Pierce Morgan.
Let's bring on the show, Alex Jones.
Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones, can you see me, sir?
Bye.
Yes sir, I've actually been sitting here about 30 minutes watching and listening to you guys while I'm getting ready for my own show.
And I have to say, you did a great job with Pierce.
He actually let you talk?
The last time I was on with him, he would just not shut up the entire time.
And it's like this Groundhog Day.
I hardly ever talked about the school shooting in Connecticut.
I wasn't banned off the internet for it.
They dredged it up later with a PR firm, promoted it, said I did all these things I never did.
Never sent anybody to anybody's houses.
No one ever peed on graves.
None of that ever got proven.
I was defaulted by judges in Connecticut and Texas.
And now, every time I'm on a show, I'm supposed to apologize.
Even though I apologized for what I did do six, seven years ago, just saying, okay, maybe I think it didn't happen, but that's still your First Amendment right.
So they misrepresent it.
And it's like Groundhog Day where I was on a week and a half ago with Elon Musk.
Vivek Ramaswamy and everybody else, and it kept being brought up over and over and over again.
Then more people would join from the mainstream media on Spaces and say, are you ready to admit it happened?
And I'm just sitting here going, I started saying it happened years before I got sued.
I'm not the Sandy Hook man.
So thank you for explaining that to people, Steven, and I'm sad that anybody associated with me keeps getting hammered with that.
No, no, no, no.
You don't need to be sorry.
And you know what?
One thing that I do want to clarify for some, because some people are saying, you know, I really don't appreciate that Stephen threw Alex under the bus where he said he was wrong.
I said, no, no.
Alex said he was wrong and apologized.
He never, you never said I lied.
You said that I believed something and as more information came out, I was wrong, right?
I'm not misstating you.
No, you didn't throw me under the bus.
Listen, you're on the air hours a day.
I'm on the hours a day.
I've said it.
I've been wrong about a lot of stuff.
Now, my batting average is still, you know, super, super high.
I'm like 95% accurate, but I say things all the time covering mainstream media that turns out to not be completely accurate, but I'm not doing it on purpose.
I want to be accurate, but I don't just get up here and say controversial things to get attention.
Right.
I want to have credibility, and that's what they have been saying.
Alex Jones was right.
People know I'm way more right than I'm wrong.
And look, I mean, when Jussie Smollett happened, I was already being sued for questioning an event.
Right.
And when I heard 2.30 in the morning, 20 below zero, white dudes with bleach and a rope, this is MAGA country.
It just didn't sound real.
And I said, I think this is a fake event.
Right.
And it turned out it was fake.
And I still, when I think something's fake, I'm going to come out and say, I think it's fake.
I'm one chance out of a thousand.
There were really white dudes in 20 below at 2 30 in the morning, uh, throwing
bleach on people and putting nooses over them and saying, this is Maga country.
And then the police get there and it's a tiny little rope around his neck.
It was a shoelace from pay less.
It was a, it was a shoelace.
So I was right about that.
And you know, I thought that there weren't WMDs in Iraq.
Turned out I was right about that.
And remember, Madeleine Albright said we killed 500,000 children by tripling the sanctions under Clinton on Iraq, not even letting them ship medicine or food in.
She said I'd do it again.
I'd kill 500,000.
They love her.
I haven't killed any children, though.
I guess I was involved in abortion back when I was dumb and didn't know what I was doing, so I actually have killed children.
But I haven't killed 500,000 like her, and I didn't do it deliberately, and I wouldn't do it again now that I know what I was doing.
And when I was a teenager, I paid for some abortions.
It's terrible.
Alex, you don't need to tattle on yourself on everything.
It's okay.
We all make mistakes.
But this brings me to the point that I was wanting to make with Pierce.
And by the way, I do think that maybe the needle moved a little bit there.
We also need to live in a society where it's okay to be wrong.
If people can't be wrong ever, then guess what?
You lose ingenuity.
You lose the ability to take risks.
This is something that isn't original.
People like Patrice O'Neill, people like Nick DiPaolo, they all said that good and bad jokes come from the same place.
Good and bad ideas often come from the same place.
You need to be able to engage in good and bad ideas.
And I've seen this not just with Pierce, but I've seen it with other people in the media.
What happens is, if you don't apologize, or you say, I don't think I was wrong, they blame you and say, why aren't you showing remorse?
And if you do apologize, or let's say you remove something that you posted because you
believe you were wrong, they say, so you took it down, you took it down, which means you
were wrong, right?
And they browbeat you.
And that is a place that is far scarier to me than simply allowing people to speak.
I don't want to be a culture where people don't have the ability to be wrong.
Everyone's wrong.
Well, the point you make is central.
Stagnation happens when you're not allowed to ask questions or be controversial.
Freedom happens when you are.
It's why everybody wanted to come to America, because we did have the strongest free speech in the world for a very, very long time.
And now an electronic Berlin Wall or Iron Curtain of censorship is lowering all around the world.
Look at Communist China.
They're not allowed to question the party.
They're not allowed to criticize their supervisors.
They're really not supposed to come and say when something's wrong at a factory or a laboratory, and that's why it's very well known that China puts out some of the worst crap on the planet, copies of Western inventions, because they don't just have planned obsolescence, where things break, they can sell you new ones.
They literally produce crap, not because they're not smart IQ-wise, but because they're not allowed to basically question what their bosses are doing.
Yeah, and you know what, if you go the extreme example is China, right, or some of these actual communist nations, then you go to a middle ground before we get to the United States, if we're the extremes, and it's where people like Piers Morgan are from, and I say this because I'm from Canada.
You know, Count Dankula, the fact that he could even face jail time, the fact that our friend Mike Ward was put before a human rights tribunal in Canada for a joke, the fact that a man was arrested in the UK for doing a cover I don't think people really understand how pivotal and central that is.
Actually, no, a man was walking by the karaoke bar and he wasn't even Chinese and he was
offended.
So this is the only place where the First Amendment exists.
And I don't think people really understand how pivotal and central that is.
I know we talk about it a lot, but I really do.
You just mentioned sort of the the the Iron Curtain kind of coming down on social media.
You know, we're talking about this here where everyone just might want to hit a clean slate policy in this new year, delete everything on our social media, all of our old stuff.
By the way, they do that at the New York Times.
They do it at the Washington Post because they want to.
They don't want to be liable.
They don't want culpability.
But do it so that everyone can start using social media to serve us and not serving this algorithm non-human brain.
I think that a lot of people feel like they are caught in a system and don't know how to get out of it because it's necessary for employment.
I think if enough people just go, all right, clear it.
We're going to use these tools as they were meant to serve us.
It's just a thought because I'm scared for where we're going.
That's right.
Not complying with the algorithm and the AI censorship is what overrides it.
What gives the AI the power is the submitting to it and acting like it's God.
Vivek Ramaswamy made a great point last week when he said, as soon as they brought into sports, he named tennis, AI, even though it was way at first worse than the humans calling Uh, what was happening?
People stopped arguing because, well, it's a machine, it must be better than us.
And it's the same thing.
No, it's just programming the AI.
And take Elon Musk, that's why Rumble is so important.
But now, the EU is coming after Elon Musk, trying to literally shut down Twitter, take it over, tens of billions of dollars of fines, because he's allowing misinformation out, and they define that as saying the COVID vaccine doesn't work, which they now admit it doesn't, basically.
So, think about that.
Folks, we need to support Rubble, we need to support what Elon Musk is doing, because he's really getting more and more hardcore.
I've noticed just lately, even traffic to you on Twitter is going way up.
I've talked to some insiders over there, They say that he really is trying to make it as open and free as possible.
I thought you were saying insiders here.
I was like, Alex, you don't need insiders at my office.
Just ask me.
I'll tell you what you want to know.
You don't need moles at Louder With Crowder?
Okay, who stole my lunch off the table last time I was there?
I don't need an insider to know.
Yeah, that was Joe Lewis.
You fed him the day before!
What was he gonna do, Alex?
Now I have to retrain him.
Alex is the worst with Joe Lewis.
I'll be like, Alex, you can't feed him.
He'll be like, I just gave him a breakfast sandwich!
I'm like, that's a whole sandwich, Alex!
I love that dog.
I know.
He loves you.
When you come in, you can see his whole body wiggles.
He's like, oh, Alex, first off, I'm going to get affection.
I'm going to get pets.
And then I'm going to get free food.
So let's just baby steps on the food because you see how big he is.
He can get up on anything.
Now at my house on the high countertop, he took a whole pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving.
Oh my.
The whole pie!
Alright, well, no.
Did that bring in some horrible farts?
Yes, it did.
Yes, it did.
But, Alex, I do appreciate you, you know, being on and obviously people know they can watch your show here on Mug Club on Fridays.
I mean, what they're doing with Elon Musk is what they did with Rumble.
You know, this happened with the EU.
This happened with the government of France first.
And, of course, Elon Musk has a bigger profile than any individual at Rumble because they don't necessarily like to be in front of the camera.
But they have done this in the past.
They've been doing it with Rumble.
And I really do hope that there's some, not just.
The importance of it, but back then you were still serving your audience, right?
You weren't blocked from your audience because someone said, no, no, I want
them to only see content through an algorithm.
Someone subscribed to your channel.
They saw your content that is, and that's only really three years now.
That's the fundamental shift in consumption of media.
And that's why people become so easy to manipulate.
And I'm not going to lie.
I'm, I'm terrified of it.
Well, here's a real-world example, and I'm not a tech expert, but I read about it in the different tech pages.
Remember just five years ago or so, when you were driving somewhere in the country, didn't know where you were, it would show you basically every gas station, every restaurant, and they were all over the place, and you could pick.
Well, now when you're on Google Maps or whatever, you're like, we just passed three gas stations.
Why does it say there's one five miles down the road?
Because those groups are paying to advertise.
So they trained you that, oh, it lists all the restaurants, all the gas stations, all the museums, all of the hotels.
No, it doesn't now.
And it's the same for all of these things.
So the censorship isn't just people's political views.
It's information about everything.
That must be how Racetrack stays in business.
I'm a Kwikjet man, dammit!
I don't want to stop at racetrack.
Links up to the live show on X as well.
And I should have X'd out that I was coming on with you.
I'm going to get better about that.
Most days I forget to say I'm coming on my own show.
But it's really exciting.
But we have to use this or lose it.
We've got to use Rumble.
We've got to share Rumble.
We've got to use X. We've got to share it.
And thanks for standing up for me there with Piers Morgan.
I wish he'd knock it off.
I'd come on his show and have a real discussion about other issues than the damn Sandy Hook thing.
No, I know.
I think that there are baby steps being made, and you know what, maybe I can be the moderator, but I wouldn't bet on it.
I think it would be fun if we all went to a gun range together, but one of you might shoot each other, so baby steps.
That would be viral!
Yes!
Let's invite Piers down, and I guess he lives in the UK.
Let's do it.
Yeah, well then he'll have to take us all to a soccer game.
I don't know.
I'm thinking out loud.
Alex Jones, we must let you go.
Go prepare for your show.
Merry Christmas, brother.
We'll talk with you soon.
Bye, senor. That's enough.
Tim, Alex Jonesed you. He cut you off.
Tim!
It's almost as if your name's not on the wall.
Well, tomorrow is the Crowder Gives Back Christmas special, and like I told you earlier,
it is G. You can watch it with your kids. We want to have something that you can just enjoy,
wholesome, sit back and really shut off. Because I'll tell you—look, let me let you in on a little
secret. Having worked at Fox News and having appeared on, I don't know how many times, CNN,
BBC, Sky News, HLN, CBC, everyone takes the holidays. They take Christmas off.
So, apparently no news happens.
So just to be clear, it's like, it's a skeleton crew, is what they do.
So, hey, if they're going to take it off, then I would say, spend some time with your family, focus on the things that matter, and you know what, really, this break, We do have some decisions that we all have to make.
Really concentrate on what it is that you want out of this next year.
Not, I just want to lose some weight, but how do you want your life to look?
I can't tell you how many people I speak with who feel like they are caught in a rat race and a huge component of it is the chronic stressors of social media and the algorithms.
That's not the kind of life you have to live.
If you don't look at it, it just disappears.
So, we started the show... Oh, there you are.
Did you hear Alex Jones talk about you, Joe Louis?
Hey, Joe.
Where are you going?
He just walks around for pets and leaves.
I think he heard Alex Jones' voice and he said, I'm gonna come in.
He's not here!
Josh, look at my butt.
Oh, nice!
Clothed!
Alex is not here, Joe.
It was a TV.
It was a TV, there's no Alex.
There's no Alex.
Yeah, that's why he's like, no, I'm leaving.
He came in and was like, there's Alex Jones.
Alright, so we started the show with, you watched that old parody of It's a Wonderful Life, the Flat Earth edition.
I don't know how much we had been drinking when we wrote that sketch, but...
What always bugged me about that film, and a lot of people haven't seen this director's cut, it was a lot darker than you originally anticipated.
We're going to show this to you before we go to Mug Club, but you remember Mr. Gower and the rat poison and the pills?
The druggist.
Yeah, the druggist.
Yeah, back then.
Fun name.
We thought that he was just smacking the kid because he messed up the pills, but then he was corrected.
No, in the original version, turns out Mr. Gower didn't care about the poison.
He just liked hitting kids.
Why, that management should have been there an hour ago.
It'll be over in five minutes for the plan.
Where's Miss Blaine's voice of counsels?
I... I feel... Didn't you hear what I said?
Yes, sir, I... What kind of tricks is... Blaine, get away!
Well, why don't you run into the living room right away?
Don't you know that boy's been sick?
You're hurting my sore ear!
You lazy loafer.
Mr. Gower, you don't know what you're doing.
Just look and see what you did.
Look at the bone you took the body from.
It's poison, I tell you, it's poison.
I don't know.
Don't hurt my sore ear again!
It wasn't your fault, Mr. Gower.
I know you feel bad.
You're breaking the house down. Stop it!
Oh, let them alone.
You're not going to get away with this.
Jesus!
you And that's it.
Ugh!
Wait!
