	🎵 Music 🎵 Hey, glad to be with you.
	We're about to get to the show in a second.
	I know that many of you are aware this is Military Appreciation Month, and tonight is a special stream because we've, I don't want to say stumbled, because the Mug Club Undercover crew, and none of this happens without you.
	There's a story tonight, some hidden camera footage, that involves someone very high up in the military, several people actually, the DEI initiatives.
	We're there knowingly making your country and the people who serve it, people who put themselves in harm's way, less safe, less capable.
	So I just want to kind of put one thing at the front of your mind here tonight.
	It's very easy to say DEI and it becomes a talking point.
	You'll hear this man, by the way, talk about DEI.
	He's effectively the head of the department in the military and talks about its irrelevancy all on camera, mind you.
	It's not just about DEI.
	It's not about how silly it is because of the gender bender and LGBTQ AIP that none of it has anything to do with fighting effectively and breaking things and defending your country and being capable of going to war.
	It's not lost on me that I have never been to war.
	I appreciate those who have.
	This is about making the other guy, the other woman, the other person Out there in your squad, your brigade, your platoon, whatever term we need to use here, your teammate when you go out there to war, your brother, your sister-in-arms, less safe, because we've decided to place on the almighty altar the god of diversity, equity, and inclusion, where it has no business playing a role at all.
	So I want you to put yourself tonight, and we will have many people here representing military charities and veterans to continue Military Appreciation Month.
	I want you to put yourself in the shoes of someone out there in the field of battle, knowing that the person next to you is less qualified, is less capable, has no business being there, but is there anyway because someone, not holding a gun, but someone holding a pen in an office decided that that was more important than your life.
	Because it is a cancer in our military right now, and it is, I would argue, the primary reason for our military recruiting shortfall.
	So we'll get to all of that and more.
	None of this happens without you.
	I would ask that you consider joining, $89 annually, Mug Club, loudearthcutter.com slash Mug Club.
	You get this show every day, a full 100% more show, Nick DiPaolo show.
	I mean, there are a multitude of programs that you get to watch, but more importantly, It's what allows this to continue, Mug Club Undercover, and this month, you know, it is Military Appreciation Month.
	I haven't seen it trending, but we are offering a promo code tonight, only USA20, and you can get $20 off your Mug Club membership tonight only, and 10% of all the proceeds will be going to military charities with whom we are working directly, and we'll be highlighting some of those tonight.
	And, you know what, tonight I will personally match All the join-ups and the 10% of proceeds.
	At least, you know what, let's put a cap.
	At least up to $10,000, personally.
	I mean, I'm not the planter's peanuts guy.
	On with the show.
	When the first missile hits the first side of the first DEG, what's it going to matter?
	Diversity, equity, and inclusion will just be out the window.
	Look, this is a little bit different tonight.
	And let me tell you exactly why it's different.
	Mug Club Undercover is about to expose something involving high-level military personnel that will shock you.
	We may end up speaking Chinese.
	What?
	We may end up speaking Chinese.
	I mean, let's be honest.
	If we have a Republican in office, it will bolster our military.
	If we have a Democrat, it'll continue to just be the make do with what you have, you know, kind of, you know, slap things together, put duct tape on it, that kind of stuff.
	Or Chinese, that kind of thing.
	And I'm a Democrat.
	We'll be featuring military guests and also providing updates on your impact in your community, how you can help real American heroes.
	And it's still all part of our Military Appreciation Month.
	We'll be working with military charities, finding the best ones.
	Get ready for a Mug Club mega live stream.

	veterans, families, and the legacy that they have fought to preserve in this country.

	Thank you to our veterans and let's make May count and let everybody know that these folks
	deserve an entire month.
	Thanks for watching.
	you Tell me about Mug Club!
	Why do they still operate on YouTube?
	A lot of free content for a premium service!
	Mug Club was created for the people to join and support authentic creator-generated content.
	They will sign up.
	I will show YouTube where I have made our home while preparing to bring justice.
	and then move on to our final step.
	I will show YouTube where I have made our home
	while preparing to bring justice.
	Then my club will break you.
	Of course!
	They are the reason this has become the most unwelcome video platform on Earth.
	Oh Oh.
	When YouTube and social media giants truly understood the depths of their failure, Mug Club will fulfill its destiny.
	We will destroy liberalism.
	Of course.
	And then, when it is done, and YouTube is...
	I see.
	Then you have my permission to die.
	My club is YouTube's reckoning.
	You are... pure evil.
	My club is necessary evil.
	Let me tell you the truth about YouTube's guidelines.
	Content that is not advertiser friendly and thus not YouTube friendly includes, but is not limited to, sexually suggestive content, violence, harassment, promotion of drug use, and finally, Controversial subjects.
	We, active members of Mug Club, will take YouTube from the corrupt.
	The rich social justice warriors who have kept you down with these myths of safe spaces.
	And we give it back to you.
	Step forward, those who will join.
	For the Mug Club Army will be raised.
	The powerful will be ripped from their digital safe spaces and cast out into the growing free speech world that we know and endure.
	This great mother club... it will endure!
	The Greatest Showman The Greatest Showman
	Use your YouTube!
	Take control!
	Take control!
	Of your platforms!
	This is the instrument of your liberation.
	Their subscriber count is on the rise, sir.
	This Mug Club is ours!
	This Mug Club is mobile!
	And the identity of the Mug Club Undercover Agents... ...is a mystery... ...for one of you!
	Hold the detonator!
	We Mug Clubbers have come not as conquerors... ...but as liberators!
	...to return free speech to streaming media... ...and that the first sign of alleged interference... ...or any beat-up platforms attempting to censor... ...these... ...anonymous folklovers undercover... ...these unsung heroes... ...were exploded...
	And this will take days and nights.
	In this election season, every non-progressive will put more undercover agents in the ground across this great nation.
	Ensuring a free and fair election with uninterrupted, unprecedented, and uncensored law and government powered not by you children.
	Don't fire on them!
	Goddammit!
	We'll take place in the dark!
	So now, the promo code USA20 is in effect.
	Code is active, sir.
	$20 off of annual membership and check yourself out at your military facilities!
	Return to your devices!
	Hopefully a month from now.
	We have eyes and ears everywhere.
	This election, we will reclaim what is rightfully ours.
	USA! USA! USA!
	USA!
	You're gonna stay in jail, that's what I know You're gonna stay in jail, I got the ball
	I'm gonna sweep this floor I'm gonna sweep this floor
	Did they hear me slap my pen down? Like this? Before?
	Maybe.
	Oh, okay.
	It's possible.
	There's a slight anger.
	Yeah, I heard it.
	You heard it?
	Yeah.
	Oh, my mic came in because we're trying to chase down a lead tonight and getting a phone call and if that didn't happen I don't want to, you know, I don't want to foreshadow or spoil it.
	Thomas Riggs!
	Thomas Riggs!
	is the man you'll see in the Mug Club Undercover video tonight.
	And I'm gonna fix my headphones here.
	Mug Club Undercover has been doing a lot of work lately that's been behind the scenes.
	It takes a long time to make sure that, you know, you aim once, you aim right, figuratively.
	And tonight is about what's going on in our military and the admission that DEI is a net harm.
	To our military.
	Or at the very least, not a net benefit, but as being given undue priority.
	And it's pretty scary, I warn you.
	It'll be alarming, it'll be upsetting, but I think it's important that these things not happen in the dark.
	There's also some very specific references you'll see in the undercover video tonight
	regarding this election, because people in the know and people with a lot of power believe
	that it's going to turn out one way and they're not really thrilled about it.
	So we have that.
	We also have some guests tonight.
	We have Jack Carr, who's going to be here, has a new book coming out.
	We have Hallie Johnson of Carry the Load.
	And we're going to be featuring a lot of military charities that we are working with here at
	Mug Club, thanks to you in Military Appreciation Month.
	but uh... let's uh... let's move on with the show uh...
	Captain Morgan, CEO, how are you?
	I am doing better than Riggs.
	Yes.
	Having a better night.
	Yes.
	How are you?
	I don't feel like he should have the right to commandeer such a cool name.
	Riggs?
	It's a lethal weapon.
	Riggs!
	And then this guy.
	Murtaugh!
	Yeah.
	Not thrilled about it.
	No.
	You know who I am thrilled to have here, though?
	Who?
	Come on.
	He's in third chair.
	The funniest man alive.
	You can watch his show, the Nick DiPaolo Show, Monday through Thursday at 5 Eastern on Mug Club.
	NickDip.com for all his tour dates.
	Nick DiPaolo, how are you, sir?
	Very good.
	Thank you for having me, Steve.
	By the way, Riggs, his first name's Tanya, so don't feel too bad.
	Oh, come on now.
	That could be.
	We have no idea.
	That's where we are at this point.
	Yes.
	We really couldn't know.
	You're about to say something, Gerald.
	Can I expect that level of performance tonight?
	Most likely.
	He looked at me like this, he went... That's the symbol from me to you that I need to come in and bring you something, and then I just didn't say anything.
	Oh, okay.
	Well, that's fine.
	Who was shot?
	Nobody was shot.
	What are you talking about?
	I thought you were talking about what's going on on CNN right now.
	Okay.
	Great start.
	Please do, by the way, right now, we want this to be on YouTube tonight.
	We fully expect this to result in some kind of a suspension or a strike, so share the link.
	Of course, do head over to Rumble for your daily viewing, but we want this to exist on all these platforms.
	Certainly on YouTube, X, anywhere that it can be seen because, hey, this is about the people who are putting themselves in harm's way.
	Sometimes we separate ourselves from that and think of military policy.
	Those are people.
	And if you have had any relatives or friends who have served, who've actually been in the shit, sorry for lack of a better word, you know what?
	It affects them, and it affects everyone in this country.
	The military is for breaking stuff and keeping you safe.
	That's it.
	You want people who are as effective at breaking stuff and killing bad guys as humanly possible, and that is not what is happening right now.
	We all suspected it.
	You will see today, Mug Club Undercover confirmed it.
	And I wanted to, before we move on, while talking about the military, everyone talks about Military Appreciation Month.
	Have not seen it trending anywhere.
	Not like Trans-Visibility Day.
	Is that a thing?
	Or is it a week?
	I don't know.
	Some people get a week, some people get a day.
	Depending on how... It feels like a light year.
	Depending on how much you've transitioned, I don't know.
	But I'll tell you this, you're all visible.
	We actually do want to affect positive change here.
	We do this at Christmas, the Crowder Gives Back segment, where there's Santa Claus.
	Never met him.
	To all the kids who've asked for gifts, I've never met him.
	We've never been in the same room together.
	Nope.
	So at the Christmas episode, we actually teamed up with this Place One Tribe Foundation And the crew, they actually connected us with some military families, and we were able to help them, honor them, thanks to your support, Mug Club.
	And we want you to see what it is that you are supporting.
	Sometimes it just sort of goes out into the ether.
	So here's actually an update from their CEO, Jacob Schick.
	What One Tribe is about is forming that human tribe, creating that community.
	We just want people to know that they're worthy of being loved and that it's okay to not be okay.
	Hey Mutt Club, Jacob Schick from Mutt Tribe Foundation here.
	Coming to you guys with an abundance of gratitude for how much you guys showed up and really helped us with our Christmas campaign.
	To include a very dear friend of ours, Michael Cardinal, who we unfortunately lost February 2nd.
	That said, that leads me into the fact that we're in Memorial May and we're approaching Memorial Day.
	Guys like Mike and the men and women that are far greater than I'll ever be.
	Get one day a year to be honored the way that they're supposed to be honored.
	So we would ask that you guys come together and support us once again in this evolution in Memorial May.
	And we're going to go walk the Katy Trail in honor and remembrance of every man and woman that shed their blood and gave their life for our freedoms.
	We will do that this month.
	And then with your generous support, we will be able to finish out the year helping all the law enforcement officers, frontline health care workers, First responders, veterans, military, as well as our families that we help in our everyday endeavors with our various programs here at One Tribe.
	We're stronger together and we can't do this without you guys.
	Mug Club, I gotta tell you, you're second to none.
	Thank you so much, so very much, for giving a damn about the men and women that are far greater than I'll ever be.
	God bless you guys and superfund dolls.
	Not to put a damper on a touching moment, but fact check false.
	We are second to many.
	My club is not.
	We... Well, no, look, quick.
	Let's not overstate the importance here.
	I mean, these guys actually... Guys missing a leg.
	Well, yes.
	We helped them out, but let's be honest.
	We come here, we tell a few jokes, we do some 7-plus-1s, really appreciate it.
	But, you know, these guys actually had bullets flying at them.
	We're certainly second to that.
	Yeah, but you were missing a sneaker today for like an hour.
	You couldn't find it?
	Yeah, that's true.
	Well, that's the last time I buy those dunks.
	Because apparently they're very in-demand.
	Your own personal hell.
	This is why I just buy cheap stuff.
	No one steals the cheap stuff.
	It's like a cheap pair of sunglasses.
	You lose it, you don't care.
	So, thank you so much to everyone here who's helped out.
	We really appreciate it, and we do send our love to Gabby Carnell and the family, and we're really glad that we were able to actually bless the family, you know, before his passing.
	So that was something that obviously is sad, but we were glad that it It came to our attention when it did.
	It made a huge difference in their lives.
	We were able to, because of Mug Club, we were able to get to that hero before he passed and obviously make an impact on the family and create some memories.
	It's fantastic to be able to do that.
	It's sad that he passed, but great that we were able to make an impact on his life.
	Thank you very much for letting us do that.
	Like, I hate the word hero now, but you were actually using it appropriately.
	The OGs of heroism.
	And I still wanted to punch you.
	You did, but I think that has roots somewhere else.
	That says something about me.
	People are still saying it takes courage to come out of the closet.
	Really?
	Really?
	Does it really?
	Yeah, I guess.
	I guess that's Travolta's excuse.
	Oh, I'd have to bring up the one of Tanga.
	That was like Kennedy getting assassinated for the Irish when the Italians We have a picture of Tavolto when he came out.
	Yeah, well.
	Tore it down, didn't you?
	You guys gained it back when De Niro and Pacino, they had kids at like 95.
	That's Old Testament type stuff.
	That's actually a great point, but jeez, De Niro.
	I should have aborted it.
	Whoa!
	No, I just don't want his son to be carrying his legacy of more Fokker films.
	Yes, exactly.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Meet the Fokkers.
	And what is it?
	Meet the Fokkers?
	How do you think he reacted when she said, do you think?
	Because, you know, it's usually it's like, hey, you know, we're gonna have a baby and they're happy.
	Do you think he was just like?
	No.
	You sure?
	You sure?
	That's about what you get from acting now.
	I think he played a Jake LaMotta and gave her a left to the kidneys.
	Exactly.
	I hope not.
	I love kids.
	Jeez, my head's shining like, you know what?
	Somebody fill it in.
	It's the mark of a good comedian.
	We have heroes in the military.
	We don't want to be mucking it up doing horse shit up here.
	But we will!
	I feel like we're on ABC at 8 o'clock.
	I don't know what to say.
	I don't know if we're on YouTube.
	You know how I am.
	I have no idea what this is going out to.
	Kids with cancer.
	I don't know.
	Everywhere nice.
	I mean, I'm sure there's a child with cancer watching.
	Yes, but how do we target all of them?
	It's incidental.
	Yeah.
	What's that?
	You have any good progeria jokes for the St.
	Jude's demographic we have watching?
	Well, I gotta give off flags and wigs.
	Oh, come on, folks.
	Everybody's going to get cancer.
	It's like the crabs lighten up.
	Neither of those are true.
	But we live in very different worlds.
	Okay.
	So, look, here we are talking about quite a bit tonight.
	We're trying to, of course, honoring the military and the promo code is USA20.
	You get $20 off at ladderwithcutter.com or click that button down there below and you get to see where your dollar goes as far as charity.
	But something else.
	You can see where your dollar goes because of what Mug Club Undercover has been working on.
	So tonight, what we are going to be releasing is some undercover footage from a senior advisor in the Navy.
	And what you're going to hear from him is very concerning.
	It runs the gauntlet from DEI initiatives to admitting what we all know, the quiet part out loud, to an impending showdown with China, and that we are ill-prepared and we are focusing on the wrong things.
	So right now we're at a point of course where we have war raging in parts of Europe, Middle East.
	...respect the Biden administration, their priorities as it relates to the military.
	We know exactly where their focus is.
	Don't forget the focus, the new God, the false idol is diversity.
	Flanked by his defense secretary and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, President Biden ended the ban on transgender troops today.
	Hello, I'm Admiral Rachel Levine.
	Climate change is having a disproportionate effect on the physical and mental health of black communities.
	Hi, I'm Major Rachel Jones, and what pride means to me is celebrating that diversity is our strength as a nation and as an army.
	So for all of you out there, I ask you to set out your symbols of pride, share your pronouns in your email,
	particularly if you're a person who doesn't think they need to.
	Here I am, very gender nonconforming in the traditional sense. Certainly three years ago when I came out as
	transgender, I was essentially ostracized.
	And I'm white.
	And I want to understand it.
	This is the story of a soldier who operates your nation's patriot missile defense systems.
	under arrest accused of plotting to give the Russian government confidential medical information
	about US military personnel.
	And I want to understand white rage.
	And I'm white.
	And I want to understand it.
	This is the story of a soldier who operates your nation's Patriot Missile Defense Systems.
	It begins in California with a little girl raised by two moms.
	You better have what I want.
	I don't take beef.
	I don't say thank you.
	I just do what I want.
	We're making good progress designing body armor that fits women properly.
	Tailoring combat uniforms for women.
	Creating maternity flight suits.
	Updating requirements for their hairstyles.
	I mean... Look, I know we don't have drinking game stuff tonight, but I am drinking.
	Yeah, well it makes it easier to take.
	Yes, thank you.
	What's that, a nice Chardonnay?
	That's perfect for this situation.
	Updating hairstyle requirements?
	You know what we used to... comment below if you had maybe a relative, a father, a drunken uncle who served in Vietnam, and they used to say, hey, at least we still have the greatest military fighting force that's ever existed.
	Yeah!
	Try showing that video if you could travel in time to, like, Genghis Khan.
	The Ottomans.
	Alexander the Great.
	What?
	Updating women's hairstyles?
	Eisenhower, you don't even have to go that far back!
	I know!
	They're making uniforms that fit properly for women.
	That means they have a place for their dick now.
	Yes!
	For pregnant women.
	Maternity... Stretchy maternity... Wait, you're subjecting that baby to G-forces in a fighter jet?
	Yeah, that's good for the soft spot.
	Things going in and out like a Coke can on the pool.
	You'll be wondering why every single baby born overseas in a military base looks like the Elephant Man.
	Take a guess!
	Hope you enjoyed that Dior flight suit!
	Apparently Rachel's a big name over there.
	It is, it's a big name.
	They pick very basic white girl names.
	It's just the idea of, you know, a woman, beautiful woman, Barbie, is stereotypical, it's offensive.
	Unless it's a man playing dress-up, then it's brave.
	Takes courage.
	Yeah, they're racist.
	I want to see some Tanishas and Taniquas in there.
	I'm sure a few of them exist.
	No, they don't.
	Let's just be honest here.
	They're not as accepting of that in that community.
	They can't appropriate those things.
	No, they can't.
	Rachel Dozell tried.
	She was courageous.
	Say what you want about her.
	Doesn't mean I agree with her.
	You know, she gets sickle cell.
	Nope, no she didn't.
	Yeah, she just stood in front of a microwave for an hour straight.
	So, here to actually, and by the way, we do have coming up in just a second here, we are waiting on a phone call actually.
	We've called some of our sources and surprise, they've They popped back underground, so they'll let me know if we get that update here later tonight.
	So we will have this hit, and it's not like Rudy Giuliani, where some of you thought we didn't have him on the show, and then Hunter Biden's laptop was on the show for the very first time, it was aired, and you thought, oh, it's just going to be one of the crew in a wig, because that did happen like four or five times before that, but then we really did have Rudy Giuliani.
	Can you do a little Giuliani?
	I don't want to besmirch the reputation of the military.
	Look, everyone who serves, even if they're serving with stretchy maternity suits and ladies with clocks.
	That's the primary focus in our military is with DEI and of course so many clocks.
	Oh my god.
	He's got a whole new meaning.
	I thought he had a good sense of humor about it, though.
	He liked the impression.
	Sometimes people get mad about it.
	So we are going to get to the hidden camera footage here from Mug Club Undercover, but first to explain former Vice
	President Biden's, and respect the office, the DEI-focused military, we
	actually have our very own Josh Feierstein with another edition of Bad Money.
	♪ Hey, I'm Feierstein and welcome to Bad Money, friends!
	I'm not just here to entertain you, but also to educate you, so call me at 555-55-55, or tweet me at WhoCares69!
	Now, forget what you know about our rough, tough military history, and make room for DEI!
	One of the greatest traditions of our military is the Grog Bowl!
	And our military's looking more and more like a Grog Bowl every day!
	Just mixing ingredients from all walks of life to make a delicious cocktail of diversity, equity, and inclusion!
	Because our military wants to focus less on the mission, and more on collecting people, like Pokemon cards!
	That's right!
	These racist bastards are looking for everybody, day and night!
	They're looking for Hispanics, so we're adding salsa to our Grog Bowl!
	They're looking for Asian people for their loyalty and long history of honor.
	So we add soy sauce to our bowl.
	It's coming out a little slow, that's not really what they're doing over there.
	Alright, we add, for black people, they've always been a long staple of our military, so for them we add the number one staple of every American household, barbecue sauce!
	We dump that in there.
	It's closed.
	There we go.
	We dump it.
	We just get that sucker in there.
	Yeah, we get that in.
	We also add salt and pepper, because they season everything.
	Even their dog bowl, probably.
	We put that in there.
	Yeah.
	Now, straight white men?
	Just like mayonnaise.
	And to that, I say, no thanks!
	Lesbians?
	Oh, yeah.
	For you, we're adding pickles, because somebody's got to be a man.
	What about gay people?
	Get your sweet ass in here with them sprinkles!
	A little more, I love it!
	What about trans people?
	Don't know your gender?
	I'm non-binary.
	No problem!
	I a real boy?
	A little bit of hormone blockers for you?
	And a promotion.
	Where's that general promotion?
	That's your promotion.
	Put it in there and you're good to go.
	Now I know some of you guys got low test scores, but don't worry.
	We let R**ards serve our country too.
	We add a couple crayons in there.
	Yeah, make sure you get yellow and green and blue and all the colors.
	I know, we forgot one.
	Ladies, if you didn't fit into one of the previously mentioned preferred categories, this one's for you, you basic b**ch.
	Whatever!
	That s**t's delicious!
	And for the salty soldier just waiting on his retirement, two bottles of tequila!
	Yeah, baby!
	Get that in there.
	Now we take our spoon of inclusion, we mix it all up, and that makes for a fighting force that everyone can enjoy!
	Hello?
	2008 called?
	They want their military back?
	F*** YOU!
	I WANT DEI!
	This be bad money!
	Still much more credible than actual Jim Cramer.
	It really is.
	It's one of those things.
	The fine point.
	It's really hard to miss.
	Better sound effects.
	Better sound effects too.
	So look.
	The footage that we are about to show you here is actually live right now on my ex account.
	You can click the link in the description to share.
	It's just the raw footage so you can share that.
	We want as many people seeing this as possible because this is going to be a big election issue.
	I know everyone is talking about immigration and everyone is talking about the economy and that's very important.
	But the capability of our fighting force, if you're not able to protect what we want, there's no reason for any of it.
	That's why when people, I get it, no bid contracts, that's an issue. I understand we need better
	efficiency with our military. Again, government bloating, bureaucracy, understood. But at the end
	of the day, if you do not have a fighting force to protect the country, there's no point in
	preserving anything. And it's at the forefront of our minds, because this has been going on behind
	the scenes here for a while. I know that this story is something that the Mud Club Undercover
	Unit has been trying to track down. And they spend a lot of time connecting, you know, fostering
	these relationships.
	Which can be embarrassing a little bit at times.
	So before I show this to you, look, I want to predict exactly what the left is going to do, okay?
	When something is this significant, they're immediately going to try and discredit the source, Mr. Riggs here, right?
	They're going to say, oh, just that's some lone wolf trying to sequester them.
	So that doesn't mean that it's representative of our actual policies, but I want you to keep in mind that this person advises directly to the head of the Navy Admiral Lisa Frenchetti.
	He'll talk about that.
	Okay, that means he's right.
	He's in the ear of key decision makers in the United States Navy.
	Okay, they'll try and say, oh, this man was someone who gets drunk.
	It's not this is unethical.
	No alcohol was served at these meetings.
	To be clear.
	They'll also try and say he's speaking out of turn just because he says these things about DEI, just because he says these things about our potential conflict with China, just because he says these things, for example, about the Republican and Democrat Party in the state of our election doesn't mean that it's true.
	We are going to provide all the receipts here.
	Tonight, we can verify everything that he says.
	It's not just some lone wolf saying it.
	It's not someone without influence saying it.
	This is a very important person who's plugged in.
	He's speaking the truth.
	He only speaks the truth when he thinks he's behind closed doors.
	So that brings us to why we're here tonight on Milk Lube Undercover.
	All right, so one more time, bring up that flow chart before we actually get into Thomas Riggs,
	who you are going to see here tonight.
	He is one of many, many, at least 80 DEI advisors, okay?
	To be clear.
	This person we mentioned, you will see, Franchetti, is the very, very top of the Navy.
	So right there you see it goes.
	President Biden, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, and then he goes straight to Lisa Franchetti.
	Is Lisa a real Lisa?
	Yes, Lisa is a real Lisa.
	And, you know, I don't know that that matters.
	It's a good question.
	It's a legitimate question.
	It is today.
	And the truth is, I say yes, but none of us are certain.
	So, who is Thomas Riggs?
	Who does he work for?
	Let's introduce the founder of the feast here.
	My job mainly is, I mainly work, I would say more, my, 70% of my job is advising.
	I'm more of an advisor.
	I advise to the top three in the Navy on equal opportunity, diversity, equity, and inclusion.
	I got this job in September.
	Okay.
	I got this job in September, and it was mainly because of the new Chief of Naval Operations,
	Admiral Lisa Franchetti.
	What's her deal?
	She believes in diversity and inclusion and equal opportunity.
	She's the first woman Joint Chief of Staff.
	Is she making our military stronger?
	Definitely.
	She's awesome.
	That woman is just awesome.
	Like, you walk into an office and you feel like you're, like, at a family friend's house.
	I work hand-in-hand with the JAG, the lawyers, the Judge Advocate General.
	Like, that's my team, really.
	I advise, they counsel.
	So, usually, we have to be on the same page.
	If we're not, then it's like we kind of explain to the boss, I don't see it this way, I see
	it this way, and we should advise.
	Remember ma'am, I'm an advisor, they're your counsel.
	By the way, when discussing people in positions of military authority, when listing their
	qualities, feeling like I've gone to a friend's house wouldn't even make my top five.
	Thank you.
	I want to be uncomfortable.
	I want to be uncomfortable.
	These are trained killers.
	Yeah.
	These are people that would be killing otherwise, and we found a really creative outlet.
	Yes, exactly.
	You know, saving the country and making sure preserving democracy, all of that.
	I want to go to their house and be lucky that I left.
	Yes.
	You want it to be a little bit like a pet snake?
	Yes.
	Like the uncle who, one drink over the limit, he's going to wail on you, but he's fun?
	The Asian kid that got out of Thomas' house?
	Yes, exactly.
	I think.
	Wipe that brow.
	I got a question here.
	Again, because of the context of this story, it sounds like I'm joking around, but did we know the sexuality of Mr. Riggs?
	Because if you send an attractive woman in there and he's not heterosexual, he's not going to spill his beans.
	Well, I understand.
	No, it's a very valid point.
	And I believe he was very fond of our undercover journalist.
	Oh, yes.
	Then again, if you've met our undercover journalist, anyone would be.
	If you have a pulse.
	Am I right?
	Okay.
	Respectfully.
	Respectfully.
	Respectfully, 100%.
	Look, this is not some random contractor.
	It's not some random contractor.
	This is a senior chief in the United States Navy that's advising these people at the highest levels.
	This is not somebody they can go, oh they worked for us for three months on a contract, oh this person never had any conversations with anybody, they had no information about this stuff.
	Can't do that.
	Can't do that with this.
	And we're about to get to why this matters so much right now, because we've heard, of course, China's not really a threat, only one person.
	Take a guess.
	Comment below.
	Which president in your lifetime actually pointed to the threat that was China?
	Pointed them out for the threat that they were, rather than saying, China's the future.
	So that's a really important key to tonight's piece.
	But again, keep in mind, With D.E.I., and this guy says D.E.I., right?
	It's kind of, it's sort of like seeing an animal in the wild that you thought was in captivity, like, oh wow, that exists.
	They actually use the term D.E.I.
	in a positive manner.
	Right.
	These people, when they don't know that you're watching.
	They say, D.E.I.
	is not really a thing.
	That's what they'll tell you.
	They'll gaslight you.
	No, it is.
	They're proud of it.
	And they just want to figure out how to work around the name.
	You'll see all of that here tonight.
	He's also very confident that Donald Trump would dump it, DEI, if he were to come into office.
	And he believes that Donald Trump will win the election.
	So right now here he is talking about DEI and well, you know what Donald Trump would do with it
	You got a hard time about it at work at all?
	About door shagging? Yeah of course, I think it's a waste of time
	Except my golf balls pop I mean, Lisa.
	Admiral.
	She doesn't think it is.
	She likes it.
	But, secretly, everybody else is like, eh.
	You know, what's going to happen when the first missile hits the first side of the first DEG?
	What's it going to matter?
	Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion will just be out the window.
	What's that look like in the military?
	Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion?
	I'll say it again.
	It depends on who's the President.
	If Trump's the President, then there is no more DEI.
	It goes away.
	He's already said he's going to shut down the office with the Pentagon.
	It'll go away.
	So that would change things, right?
	So what happens if Trump comes in and it goes away?
	Equal opportunity will never go away.
	It'll just shift from me talking about diversity, equity and inclusion to equal opportunity based on the culture of excellence and how we work.
	How do we create a diverse force of people and inclusive of everything?
	So I wouldn't just, I don't come out and say, yeah, I have to change all my verbiage to make it sound good.
	I'm sure during a time of war we don't really, like, would diversity be so important?
	No.
	No, it's not.
	That's why, that's why I told you, depending on, they say it all the time.
	What?
	As soon as China invades, if China invades Taiwan, None of this is going to matter.
	I was going to say, I was thinking like if Trump gets in and like your job would be at risk already?
	My job will still exist, it's just like I was telling you, DEI wouldn't, I wouldn't be able to come out and say, I'm a DEI practitioner.
	Like now I can say that.
	What would you say?
	I would just say I'm an equal opportunity advisor.
	Right.
	I'm a climate specialist.
	And I would, like I told you, I'd skirt around the EI.
	Well, if we're looking at the diversity, the equity, the diversity, the diverse force of the Navy, and how we're all, and where we are as far as equality, and are these people that are diverse, are they included on the decision-making, it would have to be a play or no play.
	I would never be able to find a statement like that.
	So a couple of things here.
	Right now, you've just seen the method.
	Okay, you are seeing the plan.
	And I want to then bring you to the results.
	And the results are harrowing for a country that values freedom and the ability to protect it.
	But he says, oh, we need to make it sound good.
	No, none of this will matter when he said if when China invades Taiwan.
	If it doesn't matter then, then why does it matter now?
	Look, it's easy to think of DEI as some kind of a multi-billion dollar side project, but it's not.
	There's a net cost.
	And there's a net cost where, of course, that funding could be going somewhere else in the military.
	Some are useful.
	I don't know.
	Weaponry?
	Intel?
	But there's also a cost in that the people who you want in our military aren't joining anymore.
	And there aren't enough Rachel Levine's, or Rachel Levine's type, I guess, Rachel Levine types, if this were a casting call, to replace them.
	DEI has a net cost to our country and our military by turning away the kind of people who you want with a gun in their hand or a computer on their desk keeping this country safe.
	But here is the man himself saying it.
	Now we find ourselves at an impasse where nobody's joining the military.
	Is there a lot of people joining the military right now?
	No.
	No, our recruits are putting it down.
	You know, so, like, right now, this is crazy to say, but, like, we will take people... You don't have to have a GED.
	You don't have to have a high school diploma.
	And your ASVAB score.
	Like, your aptitude score has to be above a 10.
	Only.
	What's the standard?
	Um... Or what was the standard?
	Uh, it was 50, I think.
	Maybe... Maybe... And that's, like, basic.
	Like, days... 10 is like putting your name on the test.
	Because we're... like, at this... I think last year we were like 7,000 short.
	Um...
	So you lo... we lowered the insurance?
	Yes.
	Hmm. Hmm. That's bad.
	Yes.
	It's bad when you don't have people joining, but guess what?
	It's about to get worse.
	So we have a live update from Lance Gooden who sits on the House Armed Services Committee promoting our story.
	Go ahead and bring that up right now.
	This is him commenting and calling for a ban on all DEI.
	Good.
	This is just some random guy sits on the Senate House Armed Services Committee, somebody who can affect change, somebody who can make a difference, has already pushed us out and says, you know what?
	No.
	No, our military needs to change.
	This is not about us running an interview so that people can just watch and say, ooh, military bad.
	This is about making sure something changes.
	Right.
	Some kind of result comes from the work that we do.
	Otherwise, we really shouldn't be in the business of doing it.
	Right.
	Right.
	We're not just going to sit here for 5, 10, 15 years and hope that this thing doesn't burn to the ground while we get to talk to you.
	We want things to actually change.
	That's why we ask you guys to join.
	That's why we promote Mug Club USA 20, $20 off.
	That's why we do all of this and ask you guys to jump into the fight with us so that this can change from this, not just have one more story out there about how DEI bad.
	And something else too, because I know that at least some members of the Trump family, see me being coy there, are watching.
	You.
	This man, Riggs, says, oh, it'll just change.
	My job will be somewhere else.
	Make sure that's not the case.
	Make sure that Lisa Franchetti's name is spoken from the podium at these rallies, that DEI is going away, that we're going to fix the military recruitment shortfall, that DEI plays no role in our fighting forces, and we're no longer going to put people in harm's way, whether it's lowering PT requirements.
	Let me ask you this.
	So we've made DEI, and it really is, it's just a new religion, it's a secular religion.
	We've made it an idol.
	How has it helped?
	In any way?
	Hold on a second.
	It hasn't made us a better fighting force.
	It's actually not being so tolerant has actually resulted in a military recruiting shortfall and they've even lowered PT requirements.
	They've even lowered basic aptitude test requirements.
	We are consistently now, everything about this has made us less capable and has put the people who are putting their lives on the line more in harm's way.
	So let me read you some numbers really quickly.
	The 2023, the military-wide recruitment, they missed their target by 41,000.
	The Navy missed it by 7,500.
	That's the first time ever the Navy has missed its goal.
	by seven and a half thousand. That's the first time ever the Navy has missed its goal.
	Wow.
	And as a result of that, direct result of DEI, the Navy has lowered some of their enlistment
	requirements. Let me give you some of these changes. It's progress. No GED or high school
	diploma required.
	Oh boy.
	And in 2023, the Navy actually expunged records of failed fitness test results so that they could
	keep more members. So, hey, you don't need to go to high school. You don't need a GED.
	We, we, intel, not required, basic intelligence, room temperature IQ, that doesn't matter,
	can't do a push-up or a dead hang pull-up, no problem, we want to put you out in the
	battlefield so long as you wear the right shade of eyeliner.
	Sounds like Harvard and Columbia.
	It's tough.
	Honestly, they want it to be tough to tell the difference.
	People have to understand, maybe it's not your opinion, Steve or Joe, this is intentional.
	Yes.
	This is intentional.
	And people are going, why are they?
	They want to lower the standards.
	Right.
	And they have.
	That's why you know it comes from the top down.
	Right.
	Instead of a grassroots thing.
	They use it under the guise of diversity.
	Diversity has been a smokescreen forever.
	Yeah.
	Okay?
	And it's working beautifully for them.
	So just remember when you see this, don't go, they don't know what they're doing.
	No, they know exactly what they're doing.
	Absolutely.
	No, and look, one thing too, I told you guys, if you're already a Mug Club member, if you're somebody, maybe you can't join Mug Club tonight.
	Maybe you can't jump into the fight that way.
	Maybe you need to save up for a little while.
	I totally understand it.
	In Biden's economy, I understand it even more than in most people's economy.
	But you know what you can do right now?
	If you have an X account, go click the link right now and it'll tweet for you.
	We've made it really easy, right?
	Link in the description, right at the top there.
	Click share this story, get this out to people.
	Don't just sit and watch.
	Participate.
	Why is it always the Navy?
	It's about to get worse.
	This is the climax.
	I know it's tough using that word here tonight.
	Sitting and watching, climax, I mean it's weird.
	Because we've been talking about this for a very long time and we're going to show you a montage here in just a few seconds where the Well, really, let's be honest.
	Everyone kind of knows that China is a major threat.
	Everyone knows that they want to subvert Western civilization.
	It just remains to be seen as to whether they're a paper tiger or not.
	And here's the thing.
	We can make them.
	A strong United States can ensure that they're a paper tiger, or we can build them into a Leviathan.
	But this administration, and one party exclusively in this country, has said they're not a threat, actually.
	They are our friends.
	Well, here is what they say behind closed doors.
	When people tell you, man, it's all just war for profit, man, they don't really care.
	Sometimes you go, okay, alright, we get it, you're a conspiracy theorist, you've eaten too much granola, whatever it is.
	It's true, this guy says it.
	Israel, that doesn't matter.
	Ukraine, doesn't matter.
	Truth is, China is the threat.
	We talk about it.
	All the time.
	This, to me, from all the footage, was most concerning, and certainly is a 180 from what we've heard in the public eye.
	All that's ever talked about at work, though, is like, you know, so it's not even really, there's no worry about Israel and all that stuff.
	There's not?
	What is the worry?
	China.
	All we ever talk about is, oh, well, you know, None of this is going to matter.
	We're trying to invade Taiwan.
	That's the buzzword.
	Our biggest problem right now is China.
	That's our worry.
	right now. That's our wor You know, you don't worry about your freedom, God loves.
	We're like, okay, they can figure this out themselves.
	Ukraine, Russia, yeah.
	China.
	What's that gonna look like?
	Is it?
	So it's like everything, really.
	I mean, think about it.
	If we went to war with China, it would escalate into a global war.
	I don't know.
	That's a good question.
	If we went to war with China, it would be, it would escalate into a world war.
	Would we be able to invalidate all the debt that we owe them then?
	I don't know. That's a good question. I don't know. But then again, who knows?
	I mean, we may be speaking Chinese.
	What?
	We may end up speaking Chinese.
	I mean, let's be honest.
	Okay.
	Jeez.
	Well, thanks for being honest.
	We appreciate it.
	I only took a hidden camera.
	So if he says Israel, Gaza, they'll figure that out.
	Ukraine, Russia, no, no.
	Our biggest concern by far is China.
	Here's how you know your government is lying to you.
	Let's look at the latest foreign aid bill.
	Ukraine, 61 billion dollars.
	Israel, 26 billion dollars.
	When you're talking about the entire Indo-Pacific, 8 billion dollars.
	You just heard the man in the know.
	Two points removed from the Commander-in-Chief.
	Say, none of those matter.
	China's our greatest foe.
	We could all be speaking Chinese.
	Now, we have been saying this for years, of course, and they've gaslit you and we were accused of being racist, where this also, by the way, relates to COVID.
	Hey, if they're our biggest threat, lying about How a virus developed, which, of course, we were suspended.
	You were suspended, right?
	You were told that you were crazy if you believed in the lab leak theory.
	Turns out that also is very likely true.
	You're allowed to speak of it on YouTube right now.
	They told you that all of it was racist if you spoke about China in any capacity.
	There he is.
	There is your government saying China's the biggest threat by far.
	It's not even close.
	The numbers.
	Ukraine gets $61 billion.
	Israel $26 billion.
	All of the Indo-Pacific region $8 billion.
	Yeah, something tells me we're going to need that money.
	Something tells me that we're already falling behind.
	I don't know, maybe it's the balloons floating freely over the United States from said country.
	And when he says, at work, we talk about it all the time, the threat that is China.
	OK, so that would mean, I would imagine, that would mean the military, the Pentagon, probably going to the White House, right?
	All of D.C., effectively.
	So if they're talking about that at work all the time, it's a given that China is the greatest threat.
	You believe it.
	You're told that you're racist.
	Why would that fly in the face of everything that the Biden administration and the United States elite, the swamp, have been telling you for years in regards to China?
	Well, China has some legitimate difficulties unrelated to the United States.
	And I think one of the things that balloon caused was not so much that it got shot down, but I don't think the leadership knew We do not seek to decouple our economy from China's.
	This would be damaging to both the U.S.
	and China, and destabilizing for the world.
	I love being here.
	I love the people and the culture and it's just like every time I come here I'm reminded that anything is possible here.
	The specific purpose of the October and January calls were generated by a concerning intelligence which caused us to believe the Chinese were worried about an attack on them by the United States.
	I know I am certain that President Trump did not intend to attack the Chinese.
	And it is my directed responsibility, and it was my directed responsibility by the Secretary, to convey that intent to the Chinese.
	Let me be clear.
	I believed in 1979 and said so, and I believe now.
	that a rising China is a positive development, not only for the people of China,
	Oh.
	but for the United States and the world as a whole.
	Oh, so I just don't know who to believe at this point.
	And maybe another reason we'll make all these references we always do publicly available.
	You can click the link in the description.
	They made the Hunter Biden laptop story go away, right?
	All of big tech and legacy media, who also have a vested interest largely in Chinese markets, to be clear.
	So does the NBA.
	But what got buried was not that Hunter Biden was smoking drywall and sexting his niece, though it's funny.
	What got buried was former Vice President Biden's connections directly to China.
	For some reason, people don't talk about that.
	Hey, let me put that in another way.
	Let me phrase it a different way.
	We've forgotten about former Vice President Joe Biden's direct connections to, according to Mr. Riggs, the United States' greatest foe.
	September 3rd, 2017.
	Remember Hunter and Associates?
	They negotiated with this Chinese energy firm, CEFC.
	There was the email from Hunter Biden, or sorry, one of his associates, I believe the guy's name was James Gillier.
	He suggested that 10% be held by Hunter for the quote, big guy.
	And there was another guy, Tony Bobulinski, who was also on that email chain.
	He in fact confirmed that the big guy was Joe Biden.
	So yeah, America's greatest foe, 10% for the big guy.
	Joe Biden, who now sits in office and tells you that China is not a threat.
	July 30th, 2017.
	Hunter sent this WhatsApp message to CEFC employee Raymond Jiao.
	He said, tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight.
	And Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Shang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me, and every person he knows, and my ability to forever hold a grudge, that you will regret not following my direction.
	By the way, some photos, of course, would seem to indicate, allegedly, that Hunter was at Joe Biden's house when those messages were sent.
	So, take a guess as to who the guy next to him is.
	I'm willing to bet it's the same guy who gets 10%, which was confirmed.
	But we have to focus on Donald Trump being a Russian spy or plant.
	We can't possibly look into Joe Biden.
	Let's just divide this up by continent, I think, at this point.
	Well, I won't even go that far because I'm not sure exactly where the line stops, but we've got him in Ukraine.
	Openly saying, you know, you're not gonna get this.
	What was it a billion dollars in aid unless you do this or ten But I can't remember the number what's a billion here billion there unless you fire this guy and by God He was fired that afternoon before I got on the plane.
	He said it on camera and now we're looking at China So if you had to put our two greatest enemies on the map somewhere China being number one by a long shot Russia's got to be somewhere in the top five only if maybe it's because of their nuclear weapons and their you know vodka and hair trigger yes, then You've got him in both of those things in very compromising situations.
	Yes.
	And then you have his words.
	In 2011, this is before Donald Trump flipped the script on everybody and said, you know what?
	A China that's rising right now is actually not a good thing for us because they're screwing us over.
	And everybody's running along with it, including Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, because he wants to make sure that he can A, get slave labor to build his iPhones and B, sell his iPhones.
	Yes.
	Right?
	These guys are running headlong into it.
	And Joe Biden in 2011 says, you know what?
	It's a good thing.
	That wasn't a clip from 1985.
	That wasn't a clip from 1992.
	That was a clip from 2011 when they knew better and still didn't do anything with it.
	And then it makes you think twice.
	Well, sorry, it doesn't make you think twice.
	It makes you, it validates publicly what we already knew when they said that Donald Trump was racist, right?
	Right.
	China's screwing us on trade.
	It's the Chinese virus.
	It's racist.
	It's racist.
	The Chinese are our allies.
	I can't believe it.
	Why?
	Did you ever wonder back then, why is the media And why is one party that, by the way, we all say we're all Americans.
	I don't know if that's the case anymore.
	When one party is undercutting the President of the United States on behalf of our greatest foe, according to them.
	And hey, you think that a part of me was conflicted about this tonight because I'm going, okay, hold on a second.
	China's our greatest foe.
	That's kind of the most important portion of this story.
	I don't want to tip our hand and let our greatest foe know that, and every time I say foe I think of the soup, our greatest enemy.
	I don't want to let them know that we have a problem in our military, that we have an unfit military now, that we have a recruiting shortfall, the Navy missed its numbers for the first time ever, that our military is now less intelligent, less physically capable, but more diverse.
	I don't want China to know.
	But then I thought, They probably already know.
	He said, it's good for us and the world as a whole.
	Those last words are the important part.
	Because they rarely see this as, they're going to see it as one, we're going to all hold hands, there'll be no borders.
	That's where this crap is coming from.
	And those last words, and the world as a whole.
	But when China invades Taiwan, it all goes out the window.
	Oh, so you mean that our greatest foe doesn't care about diversity, they care about conquering?
	Yeah, yeah, I'm glad that you have stretchy maternity suits to fight them.
	All to try to get votes.
	All to try to virtue signal.
	And by the way, this is what we did the telethon last time, we did an evening livestream, we really appreciate it, where we hit some marks.
	Our election stream, right, where do you go from two world records?
	We are going to be the place that is calling states.
	We are going to be the place that the mainstream media will be referencing.
	We have an infrastructure here that no one else has.
	So we ask that you tune in.
	We appreciate it.
	And the reason for that is because of how important this election is.
	So you can use the promo code USA20.
	Right now you get $20 off if you join Mug Club.
	10% go to military charities.
	But more importantly, it also helps us prepare for this election.
	Yeah.
	It helps us create the infrastructure that we need.
	Because listen to this man tell you how consequential this election is for the military, ergo the future of our republic.
	What does the U.S.
	look like in five years?
	As far as militarily?
	Because I can only really speak to you on a military front.
	Alright.
	Right?
	I will let you know after this election.
	What are the two ways it may go?
	Um, if we have a Republican in office, it will bolster our military.
	If we have a Democrat, it'll continue to just be the, make do with what you have, you know, kind of, you know, throw some slap things together, put duct tape on it, that kind of stuff.
	Board training, that kind of thing.
	And I'm a Democrat.
	So, I just, from a strictly military standpoint, Republicans are always better for military.
	Something else that's interesting to me, you have a lot of military friends, I mean obviously we work with a lot of veterans charities, I don't know if you know this, they tend to be, they tend to lean more conservative.
	Why is that the case but the people who are appointed Democrats?
	Why is it the guys pushing pens support DEI, but the guys strapping guns across their shoulders aren't?
	You notice that?
	Hey, comment below.
	Maybe I'm missing something.
	And by the way, Congress, our representatives, can you do something about this shit?
	Yet?
	If you want to be anonymous because you don't have the spine to do anything, lwctipsatprotonmail.com.
	We will protect our sources with our lives.
	We will go to jail before we give them up.
	How about you do something?
	People out there, you have the receipts, you have the proof, and everyone wants you to do something.
	Yeah.
	Please.
	Absolutely.
	Let me just translate what he has, and we have Jack Carr coming in just a minute.
	We don't have him yet, but we'll have him in just a minute.
	He said Republicans are better for the military.
	I get it.
	I understand what he's saying.
	There's only two choices here.
	Joe Biden, Donald Trump.
	What he's really saying is Donald Trump is better for the military.
	Donald Trump will be better for the military.
	But that's not something that's really news to us.
	No new wars started in his presidency.
	Yeah.
	Right?
	Pretty much global peace, as much as you can possibly kind of get it or envision it happening.
	There's always going to be some small conflicts around the country, but certainly, certainly not the things that we're seeing today.
	Right?
	And we've got a military that can't afford to have poor training.
	You know what poor training means?
	It means more charities having to be started.
	It means more donations needing to be made to families that don't have a loved one coming home, Joe.
	That's what it means.
	It doesn't translate into just dollars on a piece of paper.
	It translates to lives.
	And you're playing around with them right now, slapping duct tape—his words, not mine—on something that can't be duct taped.
	You've got to do a better job for this.
	Any vet out there right now that is a Democrat, that would be voting for Joe Biden, what are you doing?
	You're supposed to be taking care of your brothers and sisters.
	What are you doing?
	This guy doesn't have your back.
	No, of course not.
	He's just going to say, you know what?
	That's the cost of doing business.
	We had to pull out of Afghanistan and, you know, the hell with the consequences of how we did it.
	You know, we couldn't really step into this.
	We had to put some money into Ukraine.
	We couldn't really focus on China because, you know, what's 150 plus billion committed and or sent?
	So far.
	It's the cause du jour.
	Wanted to have Zelensky come over and speak to Congress because that's fun.
	It's a hard ticket to get.
	I was disappointed in our undercover unit because I never got this man's opinion on RFK Jr.
	That's true.
	And on his throat.
	Is it real or is it play?
	Get him a lozenge.
	Sorry, Nick, you're about to say something before Jill gave his impassioned First of all, we keep saying and blaming Biden and we all know he's just a vessel.
	Yes, that's true.
	You know what I mean?
	This is Liz Warren to me, Obama, AOC, the squad.
	This is their foreign policy.
	Yeah.
	Let's not forget that.
	Hit them all with it.
	Yeah, exactly.
	And this Riggs guy is like the perfect middle management guy.
	He doesn't really, he's not emotionally involved.
	Right.
	You get that?
	He's like, I was just doing my job.
	That's exactly right.
	You can see how he got appointed.
	He's like, well, I'm a Democrat, but you know, this and if this, that he doesn't, I don't feel that emotion or that passion one way or the other, which is if you, if you dealt with a corporation, work with them, they're the middle management guy.
	They know who to.
	Right.
	Who to hire as middle management.
	They're the guys who come up at a corporate gig and go, by the way, Nick, you need to plug Ovaltine in the middle of your set.
	What?
	He's like, I don't have a dog in this fight.
	You have to do it.
	I don't really have a teabag joke.
	Yes.
	I don't know how to work it in.
	Let me be clear, too.
	Here's my, if I were president for a day, policy on the military.
	What, you're not?
	Come on!
	I would say, alright, I want them to be as physically capable as possible, as mentally capable as possible, I want them to be as equipped as possible, as efficient as possible, and never have to use them.
	But they're there if we need to.
	Just like the artillery that I have bedside.
	In my house.
	It's great to know it's there, souped up, customized, really happy with it.
	I like it.
	But I never actually have to use it.
	I hope I don't.
	The view of the left is, we don't need GEDs, we don't need high school diplomas, we don't need physical fitness tests, you don't need to score even passable on an aptitude test, and let's send them out for any war that we can sign up for.
	It's the same people, lower the standards as far as SATs, it's all the same.
	It's taken this country, what made it great, to its knees intentionally.
	Yeah.
	And again, I think it's ten guys in a room, it's global, and Biden's leading the way.
	When you talk about being out there in the thick of it, it's a matter of inches and seconds, the difference.
	Look, I have not served in the military, it's not lost on me, and that's why we do what we can here.
	I'm incredibly appreciative, especially living in the United States, where you have a formidable military.
	I was raised in Canada, and that's not the case!
	You know what the military does?
	They have a red telephone.
	Call the Americans!
	Help!
	And not, of course, the people who serve.
	Thank you very much.
	But as far as their government looking out for their people, they rely on the entire industrialized world.
	Just to be clear, when we talk about the American military, let's not isolate this.
	Europe, Canada, hey, countries in South America.
	You know why you get to have a socialized medicine?
	Because you don't defend yourselves.
	Hold on a second.
	Protect your own borders.
	Keep your own land from being invaded without our money.
	Go.
	You're broke.
	That's what our military is.
	Our military is the military that protects the entire free world.
	Let's be really clear.
	It's always funny when people talk down to the United States.
	They go, oh, you don't have socialized medicine here.
	Really?
	Yeah.
	I kind of remember though when Russia went into Ukraine and your concern was that Russia
	may at some point go to Poland which may be kind of too close to your borders.
	They're not even close.
	But the transies are having a great time.
	What does that have to do with protecting the free world?
	Our approach is capable, as humanly possible, never have to use them.
	Theirs?
	Handicap them, send them out there.
	It's done under the guise of security.
	It always is.
	Yeah.
	Whether it's TSA, it's always that.
	Or they bring up the children.
	Those are the two things.
	But now it's paper thin.
	Yeah, you're safer because you have pregnant women in fighter jets.
	What?
	Scrambled eggs.
	And at least Trump said to the countries in NATO, hey, cough it up.
	You think any of the Japanese World War II kamikaze pilots were worried about stretchy maternity suits?
	No, no, no, no, no.
	Just aim at battleship.
	Pregnant, pregnant lady.
	We send the men to protect the pregnant lady.
	Don't send to war.
	I don't want to have muffin top when I clash with you.
	This came from a culture that wears thongs as men.
	Who?
	The Japanese.
	They wear thongs?
	Come on.
	Oh, the sumo wrestlers.
	Sumo, well, but also the white thing.
	That was a little bit of a stretch.
	That was also a racist statement.
	And you're better than that.
	I expect more from you.
	I am not.
	They're not thongs.
	They're diapers.
	I have wine.
	And I believe, I don't know if we have Jack.
	Okay, so we actually do have now, and we will be highlighting some of the military charities who we've been working with.
	But coming up, we're excited to have this gentleman.
	He is actually a former Navy SEAL sniper, and he is the host of the Danger Close podcast.
	He has a book right now, Red Sky Morning.
	That's, I believe, morning.
	There you go.
	See, it's play on words because it's M-O-U-R to people listening in audio.
	You may have thought it was morning, but it's not.
	Because it's Red Sky Morning, Sailor Take Morning.
	No, no, it's Red Sky Morning, so I like what he did there.
	It's available for pre-order.
	I think it comes out in June.
	Let's bring on Jack Carr.
	Mr. Carr, and by the way, people can follow you at JackCarr2RsUSA on X.
	I wanted to get your opinion, as someone who has served in a way that people could argue
	very prolific.
	Were you watching?
	Did you see the footage?
	And what is your reaction as someone who's been on the ground?
	I saw that earlier today.
	I don't know if I saw the whole thing that you guys showed earlier because I just hopped on, but, well, a couple things.
	First off, that watch was pretty interesting.
	Like, that watch was, like, very large and just, like, a lot going on with the watch.
	I think he stole it from a local Cher fan club, but yes.
	So there's something going on there.
	And then the hand wringing.
	I don't know if you noticed the hand wringing.
	There's a lot of this going on.
	Yes.
	Which was odd and distracting as well.
	And I didn't get the setup to that.
	Was that a date?
	Was that like an undercover date type operation?
	Yeah, it was a date-ish.
	Yes.
	Where were they?
	Where were they on this date?
	I mean, it looked like they were like in a cafeteria of some sort.
	I know.
	And by the way, it's a very expensive restaurant, but yes, it looks like a public stall.
	I know.
	Yeah, it really did.
	There's a bathroom right behind them.
	Some people going in and out.
	Look, they were like halfway in.
	So what is that restaurant?
	It's a nice place?
	It is.
	I don't know if I want to ruin the reputation of the restaurant.
	I forget the name, but you have a nice view overlooking the urinal.
	It's something corralled.
	Yes, it's something corral.
	Golden shower corral.
	Yes, so, but yes.
	And I will say this, no alcohol was served, to be clear, because I know that they'll say this guy was drunk, he doesn't matter, he's an underling.
	None of that is true.
	We've laid out the receipts.
	What did you think about some of his comments, particularly on China and on the issues regarding the military recruiting shortfall?
	Right.
	I mean, we've seen that for the last few years now.
	It should come as no surprise, especially to those who, well, you didn't have to follow along for the 20 years that we were in Afghanistan.
	You could just pay attention for a little bit there near the end, particularly in August of 2021, when we actually left, yet had 20 years to prepare for that eventuality.
	And so parents, people just getting ready to go into the military, maybe they're in high school, they're thinking about taking that route, they're in college, whatever it might be.
	And that was the best our military had to offer after 20 years of preparation.
	And you got to see it happen in real time.
	So that was probably the worst recruiting video you could possibly have.
	13 dead Americans to say nothing about those who are living with the lifelong physical
	and emotional trauma of the bombing at Abbey Gate.
	So you get to watch that in real time.
	So do you think a parent is gonna say, hey, you know what, we just saw this performance
	for the United States military.
	Well, I was watching for 20 years.
	You might've been watching for the last four, but I recommend that you go and join this organization
	and serve this country.
	lay your life on the line after what we saw in those videos and on the news.
	Well, you don't think a little DEI brings them back into the fold?
	That's not enough to sweeten the pot?
	It seems like they could have done a little bit better if they're thinking,
	OK, we had this horrible performance, not just in Afghanistan, but also in Iraq.
	Also, Vietnam, everything really since the end of World War Two, since 1947,
	since they changed the Department of the War Department to the Department of Defense.
	Like that's where really things started to change.
	Complete loss of accountability.
	Up to World War Two, you had Lincoln firing generals left and right in the Civil War until he got to Grant.
	You had George Marshall in the lead up to World War Two and all the way through World War Two, firing general after general, admiral after admiral, if they didn't measure up.
	And so that allowed them to get the right people in place to win those wars.
	For some reason, when we change the War Departments, the Department of Defense, there's a shift.
	Precision in language, reflecting precision in thought.
	Things shift.
	And ever since then, how many admirals and generals have been held accountable Well, that's not even a metric they care about now.
	been fired for affairs and you know whatever else that sort of thing but for performance.
	Well that's not even a metric they care about now that's what he said.
	It's time and rate you spend your time you don't get too many DUIs you don't piss positive on a on
	on a test then you are going to rise to the top of the United States military and how many generals
	and admirals do we have now compared to what we had in World War II? Oh my...
	It is a top-heavy organization now at those ranks, at those flag-level ranks.
	So it shouldn't be a surprise that those kind of people stay in and come up with this bright idea to recruit the next generation with this, not with amazing films like we had in the 80s growing up.
	You're watching First Blood, Rambo, First Blood Part II, Predator, Commando, The Delta Force.
	You're having all these amazing films.
	Now what do we have?
	Not really that.
	And we have TikTok and China, and we have all these other influences that are not really positive.
	The power of popular culture has shifted and not in a way that helps the military.
	So they come up with DEI to bring people in.
	It's not making us better prepared for war, which should be The singular focus of the military.
	And let me ask you about that, because he says that China is our greatest foe.
	He says China is, of course, right here in the offices.
	We all know China.
	We don't talk about it publicly, but we all know that's the case.
	Let me ask you, point blank, is the United States military right now, if something were to break out, which is very possible, you know, if you're talking about what's happening in the Taiwan Strait and what China wants to do, what they've stated, point blank, is the United States military right now prepared to handle any kind of a major war?
	I think that China believes they're already at war with the United States.
	We saw that with Iran starting really in 1979 and before if you saw what the CIA was doing meddling in the Middle East before that.
	But let's say 1979 onward.
	Proxy attacks throughout the region, Europe even.
	So Iran through its proxies has been at war with us for quite some time.
	The same thing's happening with China.
	I mean, you can go all the way back to Sun Tzu and read those writings that talk about deception, the importance of deception, how to win a war battle without firing a shot.
	Those are the basic principles that Chinese strategy is based upon.
	So they're at war with us right now.
	Buying off politicians, politicians leaving office, all of a sudden having direct connections to Chinese companies that are obviously connected to that government.
	Don't forget Eric Swalwell was fornicating with a Chinese spy.
	I mention that every time I can because nothing's happened to him.
	Nothing, nothing.
	It's incredible.
	So they, I mean, they are playing this game that they are very good at.
	We're bad at, we're not very good at it.
	Anyway, recognizing when someone is at war with us, but they have this influence, this slow influence that's been building up over time, buying politicians, buying land next to military bases, not just the United States, but all around the world, influencing us with TikTok, influencing our response to COVID.
	There's just so many things that are adding up that point us to the obvious conclusion that China's already at war with us.
	They're not just setting the stage and they might win this war without firing a shot, which The penultimate goal.
	That is a terrifying thought.
	Let me ask you this.
	Why did you join the military?
	And then I have a follow-up.
	I think it was just in my blood from a very early age.
	My grandfather was killed in World War II.
	He was a fighter pilot, flew the Corsair, which is the plane with the gold wings that would fold up like this.
	There was, again, the power of popular culture.
	There was a show called Black Sheep Squadron.
	I watched it in syndication in the early 80s, but it was aired in the 70s.
	About Pappy Boynton.
	Robert Conrad played Pappy Boynton, Medal of Honor recipient, who flew that same plane as my grandfather.
	So I got to watch those with my dad.
	Of course, all the movies that I'm watching of my dad's generation and then my generation as I go through the 80s.
	So it's just in my blood.
	I'm going to serve.
	And I find out what SEALs are at the ripe old age of seven.
	And from there and through, once again, through a movie called The Frogman,
	old black and white film that I saw during commercials when I was allowed to switch from football
	to the strange channel that was the outlier, not ABC, CBS, NBC, but the one outlier
	that was always playing a war movie on Sundays.
	So I'd watch those like two and a half minutes and my dad would say, switch it back.
	And I'd switch it back being the remote control, as those of us who grew up in the 80s and 70s
	were the remote control back then.
	And so I found out what SEALs were and my mom was a librarian,
	so I went down to a local library, did some research on SEALs and special operations,
	found out that they're some of the most elite operators in the United States military
	and that the training is some of the toughest ever devised by a modern military.
	So I was in.
	So I was gonna serve my country one way or another and wanted to test myself as well.
	And also quite possible that she thought I'd grow out of it.
	Like, a lot of times you grow out of it.
	You're a kid, you want to be an astronaut, you want to do this or something, and you kind of grow out of it.
	She knew what they were going to do, said, yeah, why don't you sign up for that, son?
	It's quite possible. And also quite possible that she thought I'd grow out of it. Like a lot
	of times you grow out of it. You're a kid, you want to be an astronaut, you want to do this
	or something and you kind of grow out of it. So I think her hope along the way is that I'd
	grow out of it, but I never did. Think about the movies the seven-year-olds are exposed to today.
	Yeah, I know.
	It's not going to lead to being a SEAL.
	No, it's not.
	It's going to lead to being Ryan Gosling and Barbie.
	Looking mostly at butts for buds.
	What?
	Well, there's nothing wrong with butts if it's the right kind.
	This man has served his country.
	Let's make sure this isn't an honorable interview.
	Let me ask you this, Jack.
	Would you, so that's, you said it was in your blood.
	Do you think you would today, if you're a 20 year old kid, 18 year old kid, you'd think that you'd join the military now?
	Or do you think you'd be more hesitant?
	I think I would, just because of that draw.
	I recognized that draw early on, not just for me, but because I'm a student of history and have been my entire life.
	I recognize that it used to be a prerequisite before joining the community, before joining the tribe, because you had to prove that you could add value to that tribe.
	And it was important back then, because you had to, otherwise the species was not going to continue.
	Today, you do not have to.
	But I think I recognize that.
	And I think a lot of people, young men in particular, who hit that certain age and don't do something that tests themselves physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, whatever it might be, and they just move on into life.
	And by the time they get into their 30s, 40s, there's something missing.
	And if they look back, I think it's that critical component.
	Now, back in a long time ago, it was between ages like 12 and 16.
	Let's say for us between 17 and 21, 22, right in there is that timeframe where there's this draw.
	And in this country, it's typically To go to Marine Boot Camp.
	That's the one that comes to people's minds most often.
	But there's also Army Special Forces Q Course, there's Ranger School, there's SEAL Training Buds.
	Something that tests you.
	And that part, if you don't do it when you're young, then it's kind of hard to catch up later on.
	But I recognized that earlier and I think I still would today.
	But I'm also very aware that I'd be stepping in to an organization that is different than it was 20 years prior, if I'm looking back into the pages of history.
	Yeah, I would imagine that a lot of people who, let's say they felt the way that you did, right?
	They had that pull inside of them.
	They felt that calling.
	It's got to give you pause if you go, hold on a second, am I going in here with the most qualified teammate next to me?
	Or am I going in with someone who has no business being there?
	Wait a second, the person next to me watching my back.
	May have no GED, may not be able to do a push-up and score to 10 on the aptitude, but they're there because it's the right color skin or the right orientation, insert whatever ism here today.
	I tell you, I know a lot of people who served in the military who have said, I don't know if I'd join today.
	Yeah.
	No, it's more, I think the question is, would you encourage or discourage or be neutral to a son or daughter who comes to you at age 17, 18, 19 and says, Hey dad, I'm thinking about joining.
	What do you, what do you think?
	And it's about providing and having that conversation with them and providing as much information as you can to set the stage for what they're, so as long as they're going in eyes open, it shouldn't be a surprise that they're stepping in to an organization where at least at the top, the priorities seem a bit skewed on the one hand.
	And then of course, incompetence, On the other hand, also prevails, it seems time and time again, because you can go back to every single Admiral General who got up there in front of Congress over 20 years at war, and essentially said the same thing.
	You can go back and look at 2023, 2026, 2029.
	They said the same thing, used the same buzzwords.
	We're making progress, just need a little more time, a little more money, like those things they said for 20 years.
	And eventually, People are going to wake up to the fact that, hey, at the top, we need some changes.
	And what does that mean?
	It means a bold adjustment.
	What Lincoln did during the Civil War, what George Marshall did in the lead up and through World War II, which is fire the flag officers, fire the generals, fire the admirals, put people up there because of their competence, not because of their time and rate.
	Well, it's going to be very different history if it continues down this path.
	A few generations down the line, maybe reading about Custer's last negligee.
	Gerald, you had a question.
	Well, and so, Jack, thank you very much for all you've done for You know, the military, and for obviously speaking about these issues, like I was going to ask you, and you kind of answered it in the last part of your response there, the specific changes that you need, do you think getting rid of these generals and getting rid of these flag officer positions and being able to kind of move through those would do it?
	Or really, I mean, it kind of presupposes that you have somebody with the balls to do that that is their commander in chief.
	Right.
	The question is, where are the next George Marshalls?
	Do they even exist?
	Or is this organization such a gigantic bureaucracy at this point where you can't move it in a certain direction?
	You can't make these systemic shifts that need to be made, these bold adjustments.
	And I don't know the answer to that question.
	It seems like we should have learned our lesson.
	After 1947, when we look at Vietnam, when we move even through the 80s and the 90s and obviously the last 20 years, it seems like we're not capable of making those changes because this thing is so large and it is so bureaucratic.
	It is so top heavy.
	And it is so powerful.
	And also, I hate to say it, maybe it is something that some sort of outside event that will force us to do that.
	And whether that's war with China, or it's some natural disaster, whatever it might be.
	But at this stage, that's kind of where I'm what I think it would take to for those changes to occur.
	But it's about accountability.
	There's a complete lack of accountability.
	Without reinstituting accountability, we're going to stay on the same track that we're on now.
	My problem, though, with that is that if there is some kind of event, wouldn't it be too late then?
	Wouldn't we be too far down the path, essentially, to be able to turn this thing around?
	Yeah, but the one thing that gives me hope is that we are adaptable.
	And also another thing that gives me hope because I try to look at when I sit down at the end of the day and have a glass of wine with my wife on the couch, try to look for something to be hopeful about.
	And it is looking at the end of the Civil War and how we came back together.
	We fought ourselves in our country in the bloodiest war we've ever been in.
	And yet somehow, we came back together after the Civil War.
	So looking back at that, that gives me a little bit of hope because we're not there yet.
	But it proves that we can come together.
	Yes, the primary difference, though, was by the end of that war, those people weren't amputees by choice.
	We're sending in people right now who are being amputated pre-war, which used to be, wait, what?
	You just got amputated?
	Well, you're not mentally fit to be out there in battle.
	That's a significant difference, true.
	And we also didn't have social media.
	We didn't have these companies and institutions so powerful that they can change Behaviors and thoughts because of what you're carrying around in your hand.
	So I often wonder if we did have social media, had that technology at the end of the Civil War, if we had that in the mid 1860s, would we still be here as a country today?
	Yeah, back then our social media was dropping leaflets on Hiroshima to let them know like, hey, we're coming.
	So let me ask you this.
	Your book, Red Sky Morning, can you tell people about it before you go?
	Because I know it's available in June.
	It is.
	So it's the seventh book in the James Reese Terminalist series.
	Chris Pratt stars in the Amazon adaptation of my first novel.
	So this is number seven, which was fun for me to write because I got to put in these nods to Ian Fleming and James Bond in there as well for fans of that series because it was very influential on me growing up.
	But this one is really about loyalty.
	Each book has a theme.
	This is about loyalty, but it's also about artificial intelligence, quantum computing, passive targeting, hypersonic weapons, and what that means when you're looking at the United States.
	And China.
	So all of that is thrown together in the pages of Red Sky Morning.
	And I know that Fleming and James Bond was an influence on you, but I would imagine that yours are more accurate as it relates to the weapons used.
	Remember in James Bond when he gives him the .

	Yep, he has an even smaller one before that.
	Yeah, the Beretta 25, I think, right?
	Yeah, and it's kind of, exactly, nice, nice work, nice work.
	It's actually, I have one right over there in the safe.
	But it's, it's interesting because those ones you kind of suspend disbelief, which is fun.
	So you if you're no going into them, that you don't need to look for accuracy and weapons and tactics and those sorts
	of things, you go into that for the fun of it. Whereas some
	other shows, it's you're looking for those that that authenticity
	and you're looking for that touch point with reality. But so
	they're kind of different. So I give them I give them a little
	bit of leeway when it comes to the the tactics in the weathery.
	Yes, no, it was it was fun. But a lot of people don't because
	Walther obviously a sponsor of the show, but a lot of people
	don't realize his first gun was a Beretta. And it was a 32 not
	the 380 because they don't sell 32. Almost nobody buys that But a .32, look, will it shoot a man dead?
	Sure.
	It's not like throwing a brick through a plate class window.
	I don't want to get shot with anything.
	No, I don't want to get shot with anything either, but he acts like he's walking in with a howitzer.
	All right, Jack Carr.
	We have some other guests to get to here today.
	It's at Jack Carr USA on Axe.
	Axe.
	Sounds like a body spray.
	Axe.
	Axe.
	I said axe.
	I'm an idiot.
	Thank you very much for taking the time and thank you for everything you've done for the country, sir.
	We appreciate it.
	Thanks so much.
	Take care.
	Be well.
	Jack Carr, everybody!
	See, he gave me a compliment because I knew about the shitty, shitty early weapons of
	Really?
	Not the Walther, the Beretta.
	Not that Beretta only makes crap, but did you realize, I think the .25 is the most useless caliber that's ever existed?
	It's basically a .22, only more expensive to produce because it's rimfire, it's centerfire.
	Like, can we take a .22, but make it less mass-producible?
	We'll make a lot of money on it though.
	Yes, exactly.
	Just the number 25 doesn't sound scary.
	It doesn't make any sense.
	I'll shoot you with my 25!
	You got a quarter?
	I think this man, at the end of the night, he sits down for a nice Chianti.
	And what brings him hope is thinking about the Civil War.
	Yes.
	Now, I understand in the context that he's talking about, but I was like, jeez, I didn't expect you to go to the bloodiest conflict in human history, I think.
	At least, you know, for us.
	Somebody needs some killing.
	So I named that movie line.
	You can comment below.
	Nope.
	Killed them all.
	They're all dead.
	By the way, as we go into this election season, just know that Mug Club Undercover, people out there right now, the campaigns, the rallies, these boots on the ground, they have no idea where Mug Club Undercover operates.
	We have a lot right now, a lot of irons in the fires.
	As we lead into the election time, so every dollar does go to them.
	They're out there, they're sticking their necks out there for you guys, putting their reputations on the line.
	Do consider it at lionelscotter.com.
	And tonight, only $20 off, and I'm matching the 10% charity donation from every, up to $10,000.
	And that was kind of, I was told to do it, and I was like, but I don't want to.
	What would you do?
	You know what, I'm going to promise right now, and Gerald's giving $10,000, and Toolman's giving $10,000, and Nick's giving $10,000.
	Josh!
	To who?
	$10,000 for you two.
	Whatever I say.
	Wait, you're giving it to us?
	No, you're giving it to these charities.
	Guys, you heard it here first.
	He's giving us $10,000.
	Look, on a serious note...
	We've made a lot of progress in just a couple of weeks since we did that live stream where we added so many people to Mud Club.
	Thank you guys very much for joining and stepping up and kind of jumping into the fight with us.
	We've already got access to the information so that we can have our live information for you guys.
	That's not just available by going to some random website.
	There's a lot of testing.
	There's months of stuff to do.
	We've got people that we've already started contracting with.
	On the ground, we are moving very quickly to set this up so that mainstream media doesn't need to be the place you go for election news anymore.
	We're not going to cover it and look at their bad calls.
	We have the raw data coming in to us.
	Already had that set up thanks to you, Mug Club, so we appreciate it.
	That is just one of the many things that we are doing right now.
	And look, over the next couple of months as we get into this, before, really until June 27th, we're going to have a live stream that night to cover the debate between Biden and Donald Trump.
	There are going to be updates that we give you along the way as we hit these milestones for actually finishing what we told you we were going to do that night.
	Every single time you jump in with us, we get further along.
	So thank you for doing it.
	Do it right now, USA 20.
	I'm still sticking with it.
	He's not going to be debating Biden.
	He's not going to be out by June 27th.
	He might not be the candidate.
	It's not gonna be.
	♪ ♪
	♪ I'm telling you, Trump's first question should be,
	walk from here to that wall over there.
	And then do the thing.
	Touch your nose.
	Close your eyes and touch your nose.
	Yes.
	And he'll shit himself.
	Touch your nose like it's a six-year-old just sniffing.
	And fight.
	And the debate's on.
	I can't believe.
	I just can't.
	In any way.
	There's not enough medicine or coke.
	To get this guy in mental shape to even fake a debate.
	Hold on, well Hunter does have the connection to Coke.
	He does have the connection.
	If anyone could make it happen it would be Hunter.
	I'm telling you.
	You know what Nick?
	every single person right now. I kid.
	At a standard from higher like, you know, like, like, you know,
	say is ABCs.
	Tch.
	All right.
	I'll give you that.
	Say your ABCs, Biden.
	A. Backwards.
	No!
	Z. What comes after Q?
	What comes after Q?
	What comes before Q?
	We're going backwards.
	Oh, he doesn't know.
	P. Is it R?
	I can't remember.
	Maybe Kamala can help you.
	Oh, she's too busy holding black inmates in for longer than they're sentenced to use them as slave labor.
	Wow!
	Remember the primaries five years ago?
	It opens up at 10 whenever it was.
	Yeah.
	The debate opens up.
	There was eight podiums.
	He's the only one facing away from the camera.
	He said eight o'clock.
	What the hell's going on?
	My favorite moment in all those debates was just him looming behind Hillary Clinton.
	Remember in 2016?
	I meant Biden.
	Oh, Biden, sorry.
	But I was talking about the primaries.
	I'm not making myself clear to you.
	No, I'm not making myself clear because... You know I hate Biden and love Trump, right?
	Well, thanks for clarifying.
	I appreciate it.
	I don't need your endorsement.
	So, before I move on here, too, I want to fill you in on this next organization of charity.
	It's actually called... NAACP.
	You're making it tough for... Oh, wait, hold on a second.
	CNN right now, they're doing a flashback to the debate.
	Watch, they're going to show us highlights.
	Ah, it's the Broadway with Harry Forearms.
	Alright.
	I know, like Robin Williams.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Oh, look, debate.
	Ooh, look, Ryan has a small penis.
	What?
	So, this next organization was founded by a veteran Navy SEAL, Clint Bruce, and also, I should say, Stephen Hawley, and it's called Carry the Load.
	Now, they started as a mission to restore what they view to be the true meaning, and we should all share the view, of Memorial Day.
	And now it includes more than just military heroes, and it's more than just one holiday.
	They actually work to bring Americans together of all stripes, and to help participate in honoring the heroes of our nation every day.
	Which I know, it kind of sounds like, oh, Christmas can be, you hear that in movies, like, Christmas can be every day if you keep it in your heart all year long.
	You try that in July, that doesn't work.
	In this case, they actually do work every day of the year.
	Let's just learn a little bit about what Carry the Load does.
	I see an empty Chardonnay glass by a fireplace.
	Gerald had to duck out because I believe that Mr. Riggs has called our investigative journalist right now and Gerald may be on the phone with him right now as we speak.
	That's pretty cool.
	For a follow-up.
	I was trying to call him before the program but you know.
	He disappeared, so.
	Yeah, hopefully we can flip it in time.
	Stay online broadcasting.
	He's right now out there in his office, I believe, speaking.
	If anything good comes of it, we'll see.
	Can you just speculate?
	What do you think that phone call sounds like?
	What would Mr. Riggs be saying?
	No!
	That's what I would imagine a lot of that.
	No?
	Huh?
	What?
	Or, so is... You broke my heart!
	She was beautiful!
	So is Cindy...
	Still gonna call?
	I guess now it's like, you know, we're not... I'm not crapping where I eat.
	We're not working together.
	Can she call me?
	I think maybe what's going to happen... I'm unemployed!
	He's hoping for it to be like a rom-com because our investigative journalist, right, everyone really likes her.
	She's very sweet and she's a beautiful woman.
	She's married, by the way, just to be clear.
	But I bet you he probably thinks it's like some rom-com, like, Really?
	Now it's the part where you're gonna tell me that at first it started out as a job because you were undercover but you actually developed real feelings for me and then you're gonna try and come back to me and maybe like see me through a window at I don't know like high tea time and you think I'm with another woman and we miss each other but it's actually my sister and I come back at your wedding and object and that's gonna be you and I right going like to Fiji and she's like no no we just exposed the corruption and you're out of a job.
	Yeah shut your hole.
	That would be my comment below what you see transpiring.
	Shut your whole family up.
	I'm very curious to know what's going on.
	If I could be a fly on that one.
	I want to hear screaming.
	I want to hear Gerald going, I'll fucking rip your face off.
	You bitch.
	You probably had pumps on under the table when you were talking to her.
	You silly girl slash fella.
	Speaking of which, we have a very lovely lady to come onto the program next.
	Please welcome Howie Johnson of Carry the Load here to the show.
	Done.
	All right.
	No help.
	All right.
	Miss Johnson, thank you for being here.
	Can you see and hear me?
	Yes, can you hear me?
	Yes, I can.
	Thank you very much.
	It's John Stun.
	It's what?
	It's John Stun, not Johnson.
	Did I say Johnson?
	Yeah.
	That's because you were talking about pumps and we were talking... Oh, don't blame me.
	I'm trying to help a girl out.
	Johnston & Johnston.
	It's a family show.
	So, please, Ms.
	Johnston, tell us about Carry the Load, the organization, and how it got started.
	And what is it that you do?
	We're trying to highlight these organizations that do good work every day across the country.
	A lot of people don't know.
	Absolutely.
	So, again, back in 2011, Carry the Load was founded by two former Navy SEALs, Clint Bruce and Stephen Hawley, who were It was birthed out of anger, right?
	They had many tours over in Afghanistan, Iraq, and lost many friends, battle buddies, and they saw a nation that wasn't.
	Treating memorial and honoring those that we have lost in the line of duty, right?
	So they birthed carry the load out of the city of Dallas.
	So since 2011, carrying loads mission has expanded to not only honor military, but expand to our other sacrificial services, law, law enforcement and.
	Fire throughout May honoring their sacrifices and then truly leaving Memorial Day to honor those that died in the line of duty and pay the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
	And it has expanded to a national campaign.
	And can you let people know what is the specific goal of, you know, carry the load organization as it relates to Memorial Day?
	So, right now, our Memorial May campaign is going on.
	So, it's a 28-day campaign where we have five national relays that are traveling through the 48 states.
	I would say, number one, raising awareness to the sacrifices of those in your own communities, but also raising funds to support the men and women that do make it home in mind, body, and soul healing.
	Wow, so you're doing it for, again, a lot of people don't know, and you run into this a lot, that it's Military Appreciation Month.
	We hear people complain a lot that, oh, our veterans, they get a day, and there's LGBTQAI Month, and there's about, I think we averaged it out, it was about 67 days for people of different, you know, sexual orientations or genders, as we have to use both terms now, and a lot of people aren't aware that there's an entire month, the Military Appreciation Month.
	You know, I'm glad it's more than a day.
	I'm glad it's a month.
	I wish, I honestly wish it was all year round, continuously.
	We have phenomenal sponsors and a lot of folks that continue to come out year over year.
	And it's one of those missions and experiences that you don't truly understand until you take part in it.
	I'm a veteran myself, my entire family, mom, dad, both brothers, both grandfathers.
	And again, there's nothing like sacrificing for this country and the families that lose someone It's our mission, again, for the generations to come to ensure that their legacy lives on.
	We appreciate the work that you're doing.
	And, you know, what we're doing here is 10% of every sign up here this month goes to a military charities, a portion of which will be going to carry the load.
	So we want people to know that and see the work that you do.
	But for people, by the way, who aren't maybe necessarily joining up at Mug Club here tonight, where can they go to learn more, sign up and donate to you guys specifically?
	So they can visit CarryTheLoad.org.
	You can look at the Memorial May section.
	Again, we have five national relays that are traveling through right now.
	They all are going to come together in Dallas for the Dallas Memorial March over Memorial Day weekend at Revachon Park.
	And there's about 20,000 people.
	The city of Dallas shows up.
	Wow.
	The city of Dallas.
	The problem is the city of Dallas, there's not really a good downtown, is there?
	Lots of candy.
	There's a beautiful, there's a ton of beautiful parks.
	They have the Katie Ice Trail that, again, it's a seven mile back and forth, and people march for the full 24 hours.
	Yes, but you know, all I'm saying is there's not a lot to do downtown, but you know, there are many things in the surrounding areas, so it's, all right, it is carrytheload.org, and we appreciate the work that you're doing, and I know that we will be in touch.
	I know that I don't, Well, I can't say her name because she has to be anonymous, but our producer has been in touch.
	Hallie Johnson, thank you very much for taking the time and all the great work that you do.
	We're happy to highlight it, and I hope that people go and show you guys some love.
	Thank you so much.
	Have a great evening.
	Thank you so much.
	This has been Hallie Johnson.
	Did I say Johnson again?
	I don't think so.
	I was watching.
	Son of a bitch.
	Can you admonish me?
	Sure.
	She deserves better.
	She's a veteran for crying out loud.
	She's a veteran.
	Also, I can miss one letter in her name.
	There you go.
	Admonish.
	It's a meaner admonish now.
	The name of that site's a little dicey.
	I get it.
	But it's a .org, so you know it's official.
	I was on a porn site.
	I can imagine.
	I'll always swallow the load.
	Yeah, you belong in the comments, Nick.
	He said, you belong in the comments.
	Yeah, they're making the same joke.
	Oh, yeah.
	I know.
	Don't get me started on the comments, the chat regarding Brianna Morello the other day.
	Be gentlemen.
	You guys are naughty.
	Be gentlemen.
	Hey, look, I get it.
	You have needs.
	So, before, aren't you just curious right now?
	It's just burning within me what's happening with Gerald.
	Oh, my God.
	I was hoping he had gunfire.
	If that were the case, he'd be shooting his own phone.
	The guy's not here.
	He'd be shooting himself.
	Then we could all celebrate.
	Oh, he knows I love him, Father Mulcahy.
	I wanna know!
	I know.
	This is so bad!
	What is that guy going, I'm gonna sue you?
	That type?
	He could.
	I don't know.
	Or he could just be saying, hey, you guys aren't gonna air this, are you?
	We're actually already live right now.
	Shit.
	I think he's binary.
	Or non-binary.
	I think he's a computer.
	Binary is normal.
	I think he's a zero.
	And a one.
	But I think, because if he was, like, he complimented how much he liked her, right?
	Yeah.
	That's not the work of a Again, it's either bi or hetero.
	A part of me feels bad because he really likes her.
	The reporter.
	Yeah, I feel, but no, I don't.
	Fuck him.
	He's breaking, he's helping ruin the military.
	No, you're absolutely right.
	And he's putting people at risk, and I hope she threw soup in his face.
	Cream of mushroom.
	He's the fall guy here, but he would be the first guy to throw other people under the bus.
	You know it when you see it.
	Of course!
	I can smell it on him.
	Yeah, it's one of those things.
	And by the way, they know it too.
	The people who are appointing folks in positions of power in this government, they know.
	Well, it's two things that are useless.
	It's an advisor and DEI.
	Yes, exactly.
	I don't know what that means.
	Advisor.
	I know, what is an advisory role?
	Yeah.
	Hey, I advise, uh, we get this girl another bottle of Chianti.
	Yes, exactly.
	We did the video of McKinsey.
	Consultants, advisors, like, we know what they do.
	Yeah, exactly.
	The biggest consulting group.
	They have their hands in everything.
	And, you know, it sucks because these organizations, they become huge, or they become too big to fail as it relates to private companies.
	Or, of course, effectively, all wings of the federal government are too big to fail.
	There's no accountability.
	It's just your tax dollars.
	It's a never-ending supply.
	That's where we are.
	And then you have these other people, these other organizations.
	Not only you and your support with Mug Club, and we appreciate it, but these other organizations who do a lot, and it goes completely unnoticed.
	So here's another one while we're doing Military Appreciation Month.
	The promo code is USA20.
	That's actually going on all, of course, all night.
	And then, of course, the promo code MILITARY gets you $10 off for the entire month, Military Appreciation.
	So 10% will be going to charities all month, no matter whether you enter in the promo code or not.
	So we appreciate it.
	But this one is called Stronghold.
	I believe we have it.
	Stronghold Rescue and Relief, and they actually specialize in providing medical care aid in
	crisis zones.
	So they actually hire former special forces veterans.
	And a lot of people don't necessarily know this, you know, biker gangs were started largely
	by ex-military, by veterans who came back because it's really hard to be redlining that
	edge and to be in gear five and tell someone, okay, now just shut it off.
	That's one thing we do pretty poorly here in this country, is we say, yeah, go out there, be the guy we need to kill and deal with the nightmare that none of us will sign up for.
	Now come back and just get behind your white picket fence and shut up.
	We put them on a shelf like a broken toy.
	We treat them like broken toys.
	Put on Three's Company and relax.
	Yes, exactly.
	Although that being said, Suzanne Somers, she does quell any discomfort back in that day.
	That was three's company, right?
	She did, God bless her.
	Yeah.
	Oh, that's right, she passed.
	Late, the late great.
	She did, I'll tell ya.
	I don't think anyone has a bad word to say about that lady.
	Absolutely not.
	I went to her awake.
	That was an unofficial invitee.
	So they hire... A sucker punch John wrote his kid.
	Did she?
	No, I did.
	Oh, you did.
	Okay.
	I'm sorry.
	I was like the first bad word about Susan Summers.
	I was very confused.
	But they hire these special forces or former special forces veterans to actually work with them to help provide humanitarian relief, emergency medicine.
	You know, they do some mentorship for people out there on the front lines and it gives Sometimes we think that these people are indestructible.
	We like to think of them as Superman, right?
	Oh, you were a Ranger.
	Oh, you were a Navy SEAL.
	Well, then life should be... this is a cakewalk.
	You went through Hell Week.
	This is going to be easy by comparison.
	It's actually harder because they've been transformed into a different person.
	And that different person I don't say this with any disrespect.
	It requires this person to be a little uncivilized.
	It requires this person to be a little harder than you are.
	To have a little bit of a tougher skin.
	Then to say, you know what, now do away with all that because we don't need you at this point in time.
	It never ends up well.
	So there is a lot to be said for actually providing work to do and a purpose for these people.
	Their CEO, Ephraim Matos, is actually a former Navy SEAL who's currently overseas in Burma, and actually he sent us, I believe, a video message, which we'll roll now.
	Hey, what's going on Mug Club?
	My name is Ephraim Matos, and I am the founder and CEO of Stronghold Rescue & Relief.
	So when I was 17, I decided to join the Navy, and I tried out for the SEAL teams, and somehow I made it, so that was cool.
	And I went on to become a sniper, and I was able to deploy to Afghanistan and to Southeast Asia.
	During my first deployment in Afghanistan, I was in a particularly bad firefight where the Taliban sent two little girls running straight at me.
	And it was very obvious that their intention was for me to shoot these little girls.
	We believed that they were wearing suicide backpacks.
	And that experience really opened up my eyes to the reality that there are civilians caught in the crossfires of conflicts all over the world.
	And it's the reason why I started Stronghold Rescue and Relief.
	So at Stronghold Rescue and Relief we're a non-profit organization and we're a group of veterans and we go into conflict zones to protect and care for families.
	So right now the main country that we're working in is Burma where we run ambulances and we provide frontline medical care and we also provide early warning detection systems which are made up of radios and sensors and things like that which can help the ethnic minority people here who are under constant attack by the Burma Army.
	It helps them to get away from those attacks and to get to safety.
	So as of now, we have four full-time ambulances that are transporting patients nearly on a daily basis.
	And also we have an ambulance boat which moves patients across a large man-made lake that's here in the center of Burma.
	And this lake was actually made by the Burma Army when they set up a hydroelectric dam.
	And the lake that resulted from that hydroelectric dam being built, it destroyed about 100 square miles of ethnic minority territory.
	And thousands of people lost their homes and had to run away.
	And that's just one example of how the Burma Army treats ethnic minority groups in Burma.
	But that's just where things get started.
	The Burma Army brings in fighter jets and they bomb villages.
	They set up large mortar tubes and they fire them into villages.
	And they kill and maim and rape and massacre villagers when they can find them.
	And cause all kinds of evil and mayhem.
	And so what we're dealing with here in Burma is a genocide.
	It's an attempted genocide happening, but the ethnic minority groups are fighting back and they're not going to lay down and roll over.
	It's an honor to be able to work with them, to help them protect their people, and also to provide them the support they need for medical evacuations, medical training, frontline medical care.
	And so our team of guys at Stronghold, all of us are combat veterans and we're happy to be able to put our skills to use after the military to be able to serve these people and approach this kind of situation with a cool head and with the level of training that we're very grateful to have from our time in the U.S.
	military.
	So Stronghold, the way that we operate, is as a non-profit organization, which means that we completely subsist off of the donations of people from around the world.
	It's a lot like Netflix or Mug Club.
	What we do is we have thousands of people around the world who each pitch in a little bit every single month, and without those donations, none of the ambulances that we have running would be running, and all the lives we have saved up to this point would have been lost.
	The motto of Stronghold Rescue and Relief is, the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.
	That is the quote that we have on the back of our Stronghold t-shirts.
	And anybody who signs up to give just 50 cents a day or more to Stronghold Rescue and Relief, they get one of those official t-shirts in the mail.
	And it's the same t-shirt that our crews wear here in Burma as they're working to save people's lives.
	So if you want to learn more about what we do, you can check us out at strongholdrescue.org.
	I also want to say it was an honor to serve in the U.S.
	Navy as a SEAL.
	All the things that I learned there in the military are what enabled me to help these people out here today.
	And I also want to thank Crowder and everyone at Mug Club for having me on.
	All right.
	So you are back.
	You saw me run out, and it was not because I needed more wine.
	No.
	Heepy?
	Though I always need more wine.
	That was me!
	Yes, I did use the restroom as well, Nick.
	Oh, well that's why you were gone for so long.
	Thanks for the help!
	I know, your hair's all wet.
	Thanks for the- So I was talking to Thomas Riggs.
	I was talking to the gentleman that basically was the subject of our entire show tonight, Undercover Journalism.
	He was essentially, I think he found out right before the phone call that this was airing or that this information was getting out there.
	It's getting out pretty widely on X right now.
	So make sure you guys continue to share that and just gave him an opportunity to try to answer some of these questions.
	What he meant when he said that, you know, D, I was going to change names and a number of different things.
	I don't want to be too specific because we're hoping to talk to him again, but we will have those recordings to be able to share.
	He asked to be able to talk to us a little bit later.
	We talked for a few minutes.
	I can't remember exactly how long.
	He did not deny anything that I brought to him about Republican being better in office or, you know, saying that it's pretty disconcerting to have somebody say that, you know, we could be speaking Chinese from this
	war, potentially with China invading Taiwan and the war that
	could ensue from that. And also, you know, he did make a comment that he doesn't feel like he's
	anybody special with regard to that.
	And I said, yes, but you're advising people that advise the president of the United States to which he did not deny
	that.
	No. Right. So there was some kind of Anger?
	Confirmation and a lack of denial, if you can say that, to some degree.
	Well, he told you this is public knowledge.
	So that's the issue.
	We said, well, it's public knowledge that China is our greatest foe.
	That's the implication.
	Not according to this administration.
	Not according to the man in the Oval Office.
	Not according to, by the way, not according to our generals at this point.
	Not according to all of COVID.
	We were told, no, no, no, let's not vilify them.
	So for him to say that that's public knowledge, That's just not true.
	No, I know.
	And he said that he had to go and that obviously this was a lot to be taking in and he wanted to
	be able to kind of process through a little bit and give me a call back.
	And look, I hope that that phone call happens.
	I'm kind of going along with you.
	I think you're probably right that he is not going to make that call.
	But look, Thomas, if you're listening to this, if anybody can get this to him, if anybody
	somewhere, some way, somehow can let him.
	Look, I get that this is a problem.
	I don't know if you're a bad guy.
	I know that the policies that you're pushing in the face of understanding what it does to our military is a bad thing, right?
	But this is the best possible path forward.
	If you truly believe what you said on that date, The best possible path forward is that this comes to light, it hurts for a little bit, but our military changes course and our country is safe.
	That is the best possible outcome.
	Breathe.
	Don't do anything stupid.
	Call us back and talk us through some of this stuff.
	Explain what you were saying in those meetings, on those dates.
	So that we can make positive change.
	If that's truly what you believe in, in serving this country, and you signed up to serve, so I got to think there's something in there.
	There's something deep down inside that said, I want to do this.
	And I want to spend a career doing this.
	I don't know where it went wrong and started focusing on things that you shouldn't focus on.
	I don't know if it was because it led to more promotions and it was the thing that was going to get you the time to be able to get to the next rank.
	But somewhere along the way, it became more important to satisfy the desires of the brass than it did to make sure we had a military that could actually effectively wage a war.
	I'll tell you where... No, go ahead.
	He's at the right age to have been brainwashed with this whole diversity thing.
	Yeah.
	I mean, he might even actually believe it.
	The root cause is an evil ideology.
	Let me explain when I say that.
	That's right.
	It gets in here.
	It's a worm.
	It's an infection.
	Yeah.
	It's a cancer.
	Yes.
	And it's a cancer that needs to be carved out figuratively Needs to be carved out, not only from our military, but from all of our institutions.
	Look, let me tell you something.
	If DEI and the gender bender ideology, and it is, by the way.
	I know we've done this where there are only two genders changing minds.
	You can go back to there.
	That was the first time someone asked, what is a woman?
	What is a man?
	Right?
	You can go back to 2015, 2016, 2017.
	People couldn't answer that question.
	They don't even know!
	Where this stems from, and I'm talking about all of it, but this is how radical we are right now.
	It comes from Simone de Beauvoir, then it goes to Judith Butler, John Money, this is the basis!
	For everything that you know today that you are taught in school as it relates to the idea that gender is separate from sex.
	John Money, I was taught this in college.
	I know this is a little bit of an aside, but just give me a moment here.
	John Money did the twin study.
	Had two twins.
	Sorry, he had a set of twins.
	A pair, if you will.
	And he raised one as a boy and one as a girl.
	To see if gender was a social construct.
	Now this was touted as a success.
	This was used.
	Uh, in academia.
	For decades.
	Right?
	This is proof.
	Gender is really just societal conditioning.
	Now what they didn't tell you is that John Money sexually abused these twins.
	He would have them, uh, he would forcefully put them in sexually compromising positions to make one the dominant twin, one the submissive twin.
	Uh, what they don't tell you is both those twins are dead.
	Because suicide is a real problem.
	So if you want to consider that a successful experiment, which was the basis for modern gender ideology, goes Simone de Beauvoir, Judith Butler, John Money.
	Without them, there can be no modern gender ideology.
	It cannot exist.
	Look into those people, look into the basis for this, and understand that it's not rooted in reality whatsoever, and understand that by the time it makes it to the military, by the time the military says, we will pay, and by we we mean you, the taxpayer, we'll pay for sex change operations, because that is vital To our fighting forces.
	By the time it makes it to the military, which is supposed to be a petri dish, completely devoid of politics, it has already been a contagion to every other institution.
	You think it gets to the military before it gets to education?
	You think it gets to the military before it gets to the Department of Energy?
	To social services?
	No, it gets to the military last.
	If it's there, it has been everywhere else.
	You know it.
	You've experienced it.
	And I have a tendency to feel bad for people who get caught with their pants down because everyone can make a mistake.
	But let me ask you this.
	When I say an evil ideology, you have state legislatures right now that not only will guarantee that your child Your child can transition without your permission.
	The state will help hide that child from you if you are trying to reach them.
	That exists right now.
	You want to tell me that chemically castrating and physically allowing the neutering of children is not evil?
	You cannot separate that from stretchy maternity suits, from guaranteeing that African-American lesbians are on the front lines regardless of their ability to do a sit-up.
	You cannot separate that from sex change operations in the military.
	It is an evil!
	Evil ideology, and it is not being pushed from the ground up, it is being pushed from the top down, period.
	Understand, if you look back at this moment in history, I mean, we talk about the Holocaust, we talk about whatever Mao did, we talk about the experiments that were conducted when you look at what the Chinese did with the Japanese during World War II.
	People are certainly going to look back at this time in history and say, my god, We allowed them to do that to children?
	We took children away from their parents?
	If the parents tried to protect them?
	I know some people are saying, wait, are you comparing transitioning children today?
	Are you comparing that to the Holocaust?
	Are you comparing that to Stalin's Russia?
	Yes.
	Yes.
	As far as the level of evil?
	Absolutely.
	Absolutely.
	When you see it in the military, understand that it arrived there last.
	And it's been in your schools for a long time.
	And I don't just mean college.
	I mean your kindergartens.
	I mean your grade schools.
	Let alone your high schools.
	That's what we're dealing with.
	And by the way, that's what we fight against.
	And that's why for me, I always feel bad when I say, look, make sure you are correct when I go to this undercover crew.
	Because I am not going to be in the business of ruining someone's life who's a patsy for the higher ups.
	Right.
	Exactly.
	And they do their due diligence.
	And I tell you what, the other institutions we're talking about here today, schools, other departments, media, guess what?
	Muckle Undercover is there too.
	Right now.
	Right now.
	Every single one.
	When Anthony Weiner, to give you an example, When Anthony Weiner lied about him sexting random people back then on Twitter, he didn't just lie and say it didn't happen, he had a prepared lie to blame it on that man, Andrew Breitbart.
	To say, Andrew Breitbart, I remember Alec Baldwin posted, I don't believe this Anthony Weiner scandal has a whiff do Breitbart.
	No, affected prick.
	They were ready to set this man up, who simply stumbled across the truth.
	And by the way, he had fallen from grace because they'd done this to him time and time again.
	He was too important, so they had to do away with him.
	It wasn't that he was going to lie.
	He was ready to get up at that podium, Anthony Weiner, and say, I have been subject to a smear campaign by someone named Andrew Breitbart, and this didn't happen, and my family wants privacy, and the only reason it didn't happen was because Andrew Breitbart had the balls to get up at that podium, and I don't know if this footage exists, But I know that it happened.
	I don't remember if it was the Omni Hotel in DC, if it was the Marriott, I don't remember.
	But Anthony Weiner staged his press conference, and Andrew said, this is not going to happen again.
	Well, it happened to him.
	They tarnished his reputation with stories that he had that were legitimate.
	And someone yelled out in the halls, Breitbart's in the building!
	Stop him!
	And he went up on that podium, and he told the truth.
	And of course, we know how that story ends.
	But, I will tell you this.
	You saw Andrew Breitbart.
	That guy can't hide.
	I mean, he's a personality who's bigger than life.
	But in all these other sectors, whether it's media, whether it's education, whether it's the military, if you guys aren't yelling it, you should be whispering that Mud Club Undercover is coming.
	Because I'm telling you this, they're there.
	They're there right now.
	So I'd much rather, hey, an ounce of prevention is worth 10,000 tons of cure.
	I'd much rather you be on your best behavior at this point, like seeing the police officer, so you slow down rather than them having to write you a ticket.
	But they're going to keep writing tickets.
	And then we're going to make calls to representatives.
	We're going to make calls to people who can make a difference.
	And I hope that there are other people who have spines and can do something because we can provide you with the information.
	We have some Abilities and a lack of limitations that representatives in our government don't.
	And I hope that they start working hand-in-hand with these people.
	And I thank you for your support.
	LatterEarthCreditor.com slash MugClub.
	And of course right now it's USA 20 as the promo code.
	And $20 off and 10% to military charities.
	But you know what?
	What they do is pretty damn important.
	And I guarantee you that a lot of people working with these military charities who care about the legacy, they would say, yep, it may be a different fight, but the amount of work that they put in is incredible.
	And I can't take credit for it.
	I can only take credit for being a conduit you signed up, you support, and we make sure that they have the air support that they need.
	I'm not able to go undercover.
	There aren't enough prosthetics in the world.
	Well, they wouldn't go on dates with you.
	No, no, no, no, no, no.
	So, by the way, this gentleman, look, I want to echo what you said.
	You're at a crossroads, Thomas.
	You have an opportunity to be the guy that stands up and does the right thing to make sure that the military changes course.
	And maybe you're somebody else out there right now who sees this story, and you're not a fan of ours, you don't watch our show, but you're seeing this because it touches a little close to home.
	Maybe it's time for you to stand up and do the right thing.
	And I'm not just saying whistleblowing, that can be part of it, but it's pushing back on these things that are bad for the military.
	Duct tape?
	Military poor training for these people?
	You know the cost of putting these policies first.
	Be the guy that stands up and does the right thing.
	This is a crossroads for a lot of people right now.
	Be the guy who comes out and says, you know what?
	This is the wrong course for our military.
	I'm going to start pushing back.
	I'm going to whistle blow where I have to when things are being done that shouldn't be done behind the scenes and people are being lied to right now.
	Do that.
	That's the crossroads that you're at.
	Will it cost you something?
	Absolutely.
	It always does to do the right thing.
	But it is the right thing.
	And we need more of you to do it because we're not looking to ruin any lives.
	And I understand you, Steven.
	Maybe you can't go on these dates.
	But he did say that he really did like the journalist.
	Which we kind of knew because, you know, I guess that's the whole purpose.
	She is splendid.
	She's... I just hope... I don't want Nick to say anything.
	I just hope for his sake.
	What?
	Oh Nick, you look like dirty Harry just now.
	I looked back at my dad when he was irritated.
	What?
	A D?
	I just hope for Mr. Riggs' sake that the...
	The Navy doesn't treat it like Tony Soprano would or Boeing.
	I'm just saying!
	You're talking whistleblower.
	You make a great point, Gerald.
	He's at a crossroads and has to choose good or evil.
	Yep.
	And he knows, he knows based on the statements, unless he's just full of crap, which I don't think he is because he's basically confirming what we already thought.
	Yeah.
	Right?
	That's right.
	He's got an opportunity right now to go, you know what?
	This is going to cost me something, but that's what I signed up for.
	Could have cost you your life serving this country, but you've signed on the dotted line and said, I'm willing to do that.
	Okay.
	It might be a blessing in disguise.
	Yeah, exactly.
	This may be the opportunity for you to go, you know what?
	My country is more important than a party or a policy.
	Now how do I get her number?
	It will not lead to another date.
	He's going to call you and say, hey, I'm not ready to talk right now, but could you put a good word in for me?
	Okay, well... And you'll say, no, click!
	Look, we're all equal, apparently, so I can't say you're better than anybody else.
	She's not.
	It's an E in D-E-I.
	She's taken!
	Just say to him, depending on what you do, how you handle this, you gotta use it.
	Maybe a peck on the cheek.
	If you play your cards right, a peck on the cheek.
	Not a bribe, just a letter, you can go bowling.
	We have to be there.
	Can I keep the shoes?
	No!
	You're pushing your luck, little friend.
	Alright, you know what, before we thank you very much for taking the time here tonight, but actually before we leave, because it's been a little bit more serious tonight, a lot of people don't know this, that of course this has been a long time coming with the military, where they've actually been trying to bring people into the fold with more DEI incentives, and it really hasn't been working.
	No.
	So this is just the newest iteration, which actually brings us to, you may not notice they've had many slogans, and some of them have actually not even made the cut, they've been rejected.
	So this actually brings us to this week's 7 Plus 1!
	You forgot Sivan in the chamber!
	And hopefully the soothing sounds of this 7 plus 1 tonight can lull you to sleep.
	Either that or thoughts of the Civil War.
	Yes!
	Tomorrow night on Lotto the Crowd of Baby Cancer.
	Yes!
	Well, it's been serious.
	I thought we'd be on a roll.
	I'll just whisk you away to the land of sleep where children have progeria.
	Always progeria.
	And the soothing sounds of delta waves.
	That's the thing.
	Delta waves apparently help you sleep.
	But anyways, that's irrelevant to the 7 plus 1 rejected DEI military slogans.
	Way to bring it back.
	Number 7.
	Be all you can G in the army.
	And I pronounced that the Asian way.
	7 plus 1 rejected DEI military slogans.
	Number 6.
	Nick.
	Navy.
	White suits look good on black people.
	Me too.
	That is an actual fact.
	It is a fact.
	Good contrast.
	I have a white suit.
	It is absolutely true.
	Seven plus one rejected DEI military slogans.
	Number five.
	The Marines.
	The few.
	The proud.
	The sexually confused.
	I don't know how you recruit people with that.
	Oh, there's the picture.
	Oh my god!
	Holy moly!
	Can you bring that back up?
	Is it possible?
	Did they get shot in the right cheek?
	Jeez, what in the world?
	What the hell is that?
	It's seal!
	It is!
	Holy moly, somebody put a cigar out on his face!
	Baby!
	All right, let's go to... By the way, who was he with?
	Was it... What was the name?
	Who was the celebrity?
	Was it Chris... Was it... Who was he with?
	No, uh, Heidi Klum.
	Heidi Klum.
	You know her.
	German.
	Good for him.
	Whoa!
	What?
	7 plus 1.
	Rejected DEI slogans.
	Number 4.
	Gerald... Captain Morgan.
	Unleash your Judy Garland within.
	Oh, well that's actually...
	Relatively.
	That's why you gave it to Gerald.
	I appreciate that.
	Number three.
	Some of my dignity home tonight.
	Coast Guard.
	We can teach black people to swim.
	That just seems like they're not respecting 13% of the country.
	Can we fact check that?
	Yeah, I don't know if that's... These are rejected, so it would be very hard to fact check.
	I already googled it.
	You're right on.
	7 plus 1 rejected DEI military slogans.
	Number two, Nick.
	An army of one.
	117 different genders.
	That's just lazy.
	They just added to it.
	And the number one rejected DEI military slogan.
	You know what, Captain Morgan, I'll let you take number one.
	Army, our strength lies in diversity, not unity, loyalty, character, weapons, technology, expert training, or a fighting spirit.
	Hey, it's female seal!
	It's the same seal!
	Look at it, it's the right shape!
	She actually looks pretty hot there.
	What is that, like Korea on the face?
	What's going on there?
	It's like Rihanna had a baby with seal.
	That's a tattoo of herpes.
	I hate how much work went into this, because that's very well done.
	Who did that?
	I'd get that as a tattoo on my ass.
	That's a tough poster.
	And the plus one, of course, because you always forget one in the chamber, rejected DEI military slogans.
	One of the branches is actually changing their name to Safe Space Force.
	Oh, another photo shot.
	That's the highlight of my evening.
	That's been this week's 7 Plus 1!
	You forgot Stefan in the chamber!
	All right, we're about to go to Mug Club and talk with all of the new members, because we're going to be taking some chat, which, you know, we don't do on YouTube or anywhere else, because those super chats are just awful.
	Our chat's slightly better, but I just realized, I guess CrowderShop.com also has a promo.
	Yes, that's right!
	What is it?
	First 300 people to get there get a free Louder with Crowder flag.
	I like the Clowder flag.
	This is at the bottom of the second lesson.
	So CrowderShop.com, and look, if we run out of Louder with Crowder flags, Yeah.
	You'll get a different $30 value ad flag and it will not be a gay pride flag or BLM flag because they only have 300 of the latter with crowded flags.
	Yeah.
	That's a $30 value.
	You could put Seal slash Rihanna on there.
	On the flag?
	Yeah!
	I'm just saying a $30 value.
	We could put anything on a flag.
	I don't think we can, CrowderShop.com.
	You can put anything on flags these days.
	Can we get more of these?
	I want some more of these in the color Trump 2020.
	I want to piss people off around me.
	In different colors?
	No, I mean myself.
	Yeah, yourself.
	This is a live honor request.
	No, I understand that.
	I'm just saying I would like more.
	I felt like now was the time for me to make my request.
	I'm striking while the iron's hot.
	Alright.
	I wore your t-shirt.
	I'm pro-gun.
	Changed my mind?
	Yeah.
	What happened?
	I got an argument.
	I shot the guy.
	He should have seen it coming with the shirt.
	I mean, you told him.
	I think I won that one.
	Did I ever tell you, we've met Pops Crowder, one of the most badass moments, I saw, we were in a parking lot one time, and I don't know, my dad had a bumper sticker, the guy had a bumper sticker, something, you know, and he made some smart-ass comment or something to my dad.
	Right.
	My dad said something about, you know, like, yeah, well, you know, it's good to know that you support people who hate their country, something like that.
	Oh, wow.
	And the guy said, yeah, good to know that you're some Republican fairy, something like that.
	And my dad must have been having a bad day, but my dad stopped and he turned and he said, Who do you think you're talking to?
	And I said, what?
	He said, you don't know me.
	I'm a strange man to you.
	You don't go and call a strange man fairy.
	Do you have any idea how this could pan out for you?
	He was like, well, you didn't at least say I'm sorry and went back into his car.
	It was like, it was one of those things where it's like, he probably is like fairy, like, yeah, Sprite.
	My dad was like, Who do you think you're talking to?
	Sounds like your dad was having a great day.
	Yeah, well, he did after that.
	Took a while to wipe the smile off of his face.
	That's true.
	My father would say, what the fuck did you say?
	The guy would stab my father.
	That was a different generation.
	It was like 310 to Yuma.
	They're gonna hang me in the morning.
	So, um, look, one thing too, I will say this, before we go, oh, what is this?
	My grenade just fell?
	Oh no, it's a little army man.
	I thought it was an artichoke heart.
	Why would that be on your desk?
	I don't know!
	I thought you liked artichokes!
	It's in every recipe these days!
	Incredibly impractical.
	You haven't had the army artichoke?
	The army artichoke.
	Military mushrooms?
	You peel the artichoke, count three seconds, and then... It's a new gay sexual position.
	I gotta block the shining head.
	Well, a little Chardonnay, and all of a sudden, Gerald is David Tell.
	Hey, hey, hey!
	That's not Chardonnay.
	That's Sauvignon Blanc.
	I love that he's getting tipsy.
	It becomes shimmel.
	It's okay.
	It's okay.
	We all have needs.
	Now!
	I need to tell you this, because we get a lot of chats from people, and we'll take those on Mug Club, where people will say, hey, I work in an industry where I'm scared to sort of come out with my political perspective.
	Oh, it's Dunkin' Donuts for Christ's sake.
	But you will, you'll hear people say this all the time.
	And we answer, look, let your freak flag fly.
	Or they say, you know what, I'm scared with what I do, if the person who works with me knows how I line up politically, that they may set me up to fail, or we work in kind of a team environment.
	So, I want you, because this is a common thread, we see this a lot, picture that, and I get it, it's scary.
	For example, you might fail a test if you come out of the closet as a conservative in university.
	You may not get a role as an actor, as a performer, you may not get a spot as a comic on a showcase set.
	You may, for example, if you work in technology, you may not get promoted.
	Right?
	Because other people around you, if they know where you line up, and they don't share your values, and they become the majority, it becomes a mob mentality.
	Now I want you to picture that, and rather than maybe failing a test, failing a grader, your paper, maybe not getting a job, maybe losing an audition, picture that same environment with people shooting at you.
	That's what we're talking about tonight.
	We're talking about people who are going out there.
	Who, by the way, you've seen, that's why we highlight these charities, they come back different than they left, not only mentally, emotionally, spiritually, physically.
	Many of them are missing limbs.
	They have diseases or illnesses that we can't even begin to imagine.
	And now they have to worry about going out there and... Is this person next to me?
	First off, are they the most qualified person?
	I can't say the answer is no.
	It's scarier than that.
	The answer is you couldn't possibly know.
	And you might get booted or dishonorably discharged for using the wrong pronouns in the heat of battle.
	Or you may lose your job or be reprimanded because you're not on board with hiring based on diversity when you're really supposed to be going out and killing people.
	Think about that.
	When you think about how toxic the work environment is for some... And I get it, by the way.
	I get it.
	You are risking something.
	You're risking your livelihood.
	Wars have been fought over less.
	I understand it.
	It's not lost on me.
	But now picture yourself in an actually toxic environment, where the smell of gunpowder, gas, blood, death fills the air, and you can't possibly know if the person next to you Is there to protect you?
	Is capable of protecting you?
	Or is the diversity higher?
	And we know that's by design.
	Tonight, thanks to the undercover work they've done, we know that is by design.
	And we know what the greatest threat is to the United States of America.
	There's no doubt about it.
	It's China.
	It's China.
	Are we ready to deal with China?
	Economically?
	Or, if it actually breaks out into a conflict.
	I'll tell you one thing that I do know.
	We, at one point, I'd like to think we still are, we were the greatest fighting force that this country's ever known.
	It was kind of a point of pride, you may not know this, to those who are under the age of 30.
	People were proud of it, the United States military.
	I do know that China doesn't care about diversity, equity, and inclusion.
	I do know that not only do they not care about that, they don't care about ethics, rules of engagement, or basic fundamental human rights.
	While we're facing a shortfall for recruitment because people aren't meeting the standards of DEI, and people don't want to join up our military, they can throw as many bodies at any conflict, humanly possible, whether they are willing or not.
	And these are people with no regard for human life, and no regard for basic fundamental human rights.
	How do I know?
	Well, look, if you don't believe me, ask any Uyghur Muslim in China.
	That's right.
	You can't.
	When we say we need a minimum amount of transgender Muslims in our Marines, for example, they say we're going to lock every single Muslim up in our country in a prison until we maybe hit a shortfall and can use their body to grease the gears of war.
	You can't win a conflict with people like that.
	Not only by playing by rules of engagement, I don't mean not losing yourself in conflict.
	I mean made-up rules from people who've not only never seen the heat of battle, have never been in a fistfight or a conflict their entire life.
	This policy is being determined by an administration led by a man who has suckled at the government teat since his mid-twenties.
	Joe Biden not only has no idea what the battlefield looks like today, he couldn't tell you What a paycheck looks like that doesn't come at a taxpayer's expense.
	And these are the people in charge of how you fight your wars.
	And I hope that the people out there who can make a difference, have a spine, and do so, take your lead from the people who've been doing the work undercover.
	And by the way, you'll never know their names.
	You'll never see their faces.
	All I can tell you is the work that they do is incredible.
	Very proud to be associated with them.
