Time Text
🎵 Liberty, Liberty 🎵 🎵 Liberty, Liberty 🎵
Oh shi- Nice, baby!
Stephen.
Pedophile.
Wow.
Horror movies just don't work when you've got a Walter.
♪ Sing with me to the bells of St. Louis ♪ ♪♪♪
♪♪♪ ♪♪♪
♪♪♪ Oh.
Oh Ooh.
Glad to be with you.
I spilled.
There we go.
It's off to a bad start.
I'm a professional.
So, really glad to be with you today.
Look, you wonder what we're going to be talking about?
It's pretty straightforward.
Obviously it was a historic moment yesterday.
Elon Musk, Donald Trump, on X, DDoS attack, a lot of people watched.
Crashed.
Then, of course, the Fact Checkers.
Of course, all of the myths that you will see out there in the media, from Donald Trump slurring his words and a lisp, to he's lying about crime, to something with Putin.
We are going to go through all of that today.
All the references are available.
A fact-checking the Fact Checkers segment, which needs to be quite thorough because that's all they've been talking about.
I've seen it this morning.
I know.
I hate it.
I hate it.
All over X. Get control of your own platform.
Look at that.
Look at that, Elon.
Trump advisors celebrate must-check.
Allies question strategy.
No, no they don't.
None of Trump's allies question that strategy at all.
The allies are Anna Navarro and Rick Wilson.
Yeah, that's true.
The Lincoln Project questions the strategy.
Ignore their pedophilia.
It's true.
Look it up.
Lincoln Project.
It's an actual thing.
Anyway, I don't know if we already had to do this, but if at some point today, if you're watching on YouTube and you see this, Head on over to Rumble.
It's a live show.
Weekdays, 10 a.m.
Even on Friday, even though it's just on MugClub.
So let me ask you this.
What do you think the Donald Trump campaign can do to push back against the Kamala momentum?
And do you think that there is momentum, or do you think it's largely propaganda?
Because I've seen two opinions on this.
I think we need to act like there's real momentum, but I don't think it's quite what they're presenting.
So comment below.
Number two, Kevin Morgan, CEO, how are you?
I'm well, how are you?
I have the hiccups.
You have the hiccups?
I have the hiccups, so if I feel a little... I keep trying to do this because the hiccup, if you keep holding it back long enough, turns into a burp.
It does.
And that's not nice in people.
No, it's not nice in your ears.
🎵 And when you hear this, you know him, you love him.
Go see him at the Plano House of Comedy tonight!
Yeah!
August 13th.
He's been banned from X. So, go to jfeierstein.com or follow him on Instagram.
Sorry about that, Josh.
How are you?
I'm alright.
I actually, I'm a little dizzy.
I got in a car wreck last night.
You did?
You got in a car wreck?
I got in a wreck.
I got in a wreck.
Well, sorry.
Now I feel horrible.
Three car pileup.
You were in the pileup?
Yeah!
You didn't know I was in it?
No!
No!
Now I feel horrible.
I was very nonchalant about it because I thought you said I was going home and there was traffic because there was this pileup.
And I think I said something to the effect of like, yeah, bitch probably deserved it.
It was me, I was the bitch.
I thought you said a woman was- that was you?
No, I was in the front, yeah.
I thought you would know my car when I sent you the picture.
I don't know everybody's car.
I apologize.
I know your license plate is- no, I'm just kidding.
But yeah, it was in a three-car pileup, dude.
This lady fell asleep at the wheel and just didn't stop at a red light and just went right into a jeep.
This, like, 18-year-old kid behind me and his jeep smashed my Camry, so.
Ouch.
Everybody okay?
Uh, yeah, I don't know.
The lady was taking off in a stretch.
She was, like, I felt bad for her.
I'll show you.
She was like this in her seat.
She went like this.
She saw us and she went... Uh-oh.
Seems like she may have a stutter.
So I kind of felt bad, but... She had the nods?
Yeah, she had something going on.
It's a bad way to wake up.
I don't think you said that you were in it.
I might not have.
It looked like a picture that was taken from like you were driving like the side of the road.
Yeah, he was like, yeah, what a bitch with a Camry.
No, I didn't say that.
What a loser.
It's an ugly car and I hate it.
I may have said that.
He did say, who gave Josh my number?
Ask Johnny Boy about luck with cars.
Oh, I know about his, I know about his old Jeep.
Oh, no, and then what happened immediately after during the ice storm.
Yeah.
Oh, I have to ask him.
Yeah, there was a whole thing.
All right.
I'm sorry, guys.
This is Inside Baseball.
Okay.
Before we get to the fact check.
Okay.
Okay.
Here's a carny who went on a rant about white privilege in real work.
Twenty-five years in f***ing carnival business, but that's not a job.
You know what?
You sit in your white privilege office or your mom's basement and talk s*** when you can get out there and work on a ride where you don't complain after five f***ing minutes.
I made this country happy for so many years with me joining these carnivals, but now Oh.
Carnival work's not a job.
Bulls***.
Carnival is a f***ing job.
We get paid to do it.
We get paid to make sure that you're happy while you're on our carnival grounds.
Get paid in cotton candy and tickets.
But no.
Carnival work ain't a f***ing job.
Get to work, they say.
No, I broke my back for 25 years making sure everybody was happy.
Now it's my time to retire.
What?
There's a retirement bill?
Is he complaining about white privilege or is he complaining about being accused of having white privilege?
I don't know exactly.
I think he's complaining about white privilege people being dicks at the carnival.
Well clearly he complains about toothpaste but I don't understand what he's complaining about.
I'm just trying to make people happy.
Trying to make people happy by charging you for a game that you can't possibly win.
That's right.
It had nothing to do with the access of meth in the parking lot.
No.
Do you understand?
I'm not sure that I follow.
Maybe he wants to retire and he can't because he made poor life choices and chose to work at a carnival for 25 years?
I don't think it comes with a 401k.
No, I think you can create your own though.
Through Barnum and Bailey.
It's the greatest Roth IRA on earth.
I have so many peanuts!
Can we quit that laugh?
I feel like I was clipping, sorry.
By the way, really quick, this is also just pretty funny, speaking of just performing, because it's going to be a long segment on the fact-checking, the fact-checkers.
Lane started cussing.
CBS posted these two headlines, right, about the no tax on tips, just 56 days apart, just in case you wondered, hey, is the media lying or are they just getting things wrong?
All right, 56 days apart.
June 17, 2024.
Former President Donald Trump's vow to stop taxing tips would cost the federal government up to $250 billion over 10 years, according to a non-partisan watchdog group.
August 12, 2024.
Just 56 days later, VP Kamala Harris is rolling out a new policy position saying she'll fight to end taxes on tips for service and hospitality workers.
You do not hate the media enough.
Not only is it just that, she was the deciding vote on the IRS thing to go after tips and make sure that the service workers were paying their taxes on their tips.
These people, this is not malpractice.
This is absolutely people lying to you, to your face every single day.
You do not hate the media enough.
Does Kamala Harris have momentum?
Maybe.
But remember, the people trying to tell you that she is immensely popular are the people who told you that Joe Biden was mentally fit as a fiddle for three years.
It's the same group of people.
And I know it's a very lazy thing, right?
You'll have conspiracy theorists, and they just create this broad umbrella, like the Jesse Ventura sort of syndrome.
I'm just asking questions.
Who was there at Tower 7 with an Acme Plunger?
Tough guy.
Jesse.
Yeah.
He had an Acme Plunger.
Tower 7 went down to the ground.
That doesn't happen.
You're like, you have no idea what he's actually saying.
That would require so many people.
In this case, you're talking about a meeting with 10 people in a room.
10 people in a room just decide, all right, this is the person we are backing, and they send out those marching orders.
You don't think, you don't think that Google, Alphabet, right, Facebook, Meta, Zuckerberg, Instagram, and then Turner, CBS, uh, is it CBS, uh, I know, ABC Disney, CBS Viacom, NBC Universal, okay?
You don't think that the CEOs, the presidents of those companies can get on a call and say, hey, by the way, we all, hey, we can all ban Alex Jones today, right?
Hey, we can all ban the president of the United States from all of our platforms today, right?
Generally speaking, the larger a conspiracy theory is, the more people who are required to remain silent.
That's when it reaches the realm of being unrealistic.
In this case, it's a very, very small group of people.
It's consistently the same group of people, and they're not silent.
They're telling you what they are doing.
It's not a conspiracy.
You see it every single day.
Does that make sense?
Does that help you when people out there turn and say, oh, conspiracy, you think, you just think the media and big tech, that they're all the ones who are conspiring against conservatives and Trump.
Is that what you think?
Yes!
It's not that crazy a concept.
Yes!
It's because they do it.
Yes, I do.
They see it.
Yes, I do.
Don't know if you remember this.
We're only a month away from the attempted assassination of the man.
I know, it's easy to forget, isn't it?
Why?
Why is it easy to forget?
Never before in American history, with a modern media, has it been forgotten that quickly.
By the way, speaking of the Secret Service, I'm kidding.
They're inept.
So maybe they'd be better off if they used Walther's, the longest standing sponsor of this show.
Go to waltherarms.com.
Look, I reached out to them because I've loved their firearms for a very long time.
They're a great fire.
It's not the only company that makes great guns, but go to a gun range.
Try it.
You'll buy it.
Read the reviews.
It's the firearm industry's best kept secret.
And they have the balls to sponsor the show.
They've stuck by us.
We all carry Walther's here.
WaltherArmed.com.
You're not going to find one better, certainly at that price.
Secret Service, take notes!
I'm just kidding.
You wouldn't use it anyway.
All right.
They do work on a slanted roof.
Yes, yes, they do work on a slanted roof.
Work quite well.
Depending.
30 green, yeah.
Are you starting to go 32?
Someone going to die today!
All right, so really quickly, ahead of the Trump interview yesterday, EU Commissioner, right, for Internal Market and Services, I want to make sure that I get the BS title right.
Thierry Breton threatened X in a letter saying, gosh, saying, as you, is he, I'm trying to think, I don't know what his voice looks like.
French?
I think he's French.
Is he, is he, I think he's French.
Is he French?
He's the EU commissioner, I don't know.
Thierry?
Did someone let me know?
I just forgot this, I feel dumb.
It's got to be French.
Gay Klaus Schwab.
As you know, formal proceedings are already ongoing against X under the DSA.
We are monitoring the potential risks in the EU associated with the dissemination of content that may incite violence, hate, and racism.
In conjunction with major political and societal events around the world, including debates and interviews in the context of elections.
Is he French?
Do we know noodles?
Or is he English?
I'm pretty sure he's French.
He's French, but also Sengalese.
Ah, he's French.
Who cares?
That's fine.
That works.
I don't know how to do Sengalese.
Oh my god, he's Sengalese!
I imagine there's one sprite.
Sengalese!
Sengalese So Elon Musk, who was understandably concerned, posted this meme with the caption, To be honest, I really wanted to respond to this with this Tropic Thunder meme, but I would never do something so rude and irresponsible.
And it's the Les Grossman.
I loved it.
That was hilarious because his first response was just, Bonjour.
Which I thought was hilarious in and of itself because it's like, it's so dismissive.
Right.
And then he came back like an hour later and he's like, I can do better.
I can do better.
Yes.
And here's why this matters, right?
This is trying to censor.
When people say, oh, well, hey, First Amendment doesn't apply to private platforms.
Say, hey, if you don't like it, go build your own YouTube.
They say, you will hear this all the time.
You don't like it?
Go build your own Facebook.
Okay.
You don't like it?
Go and actually purchase a company like Twitter Run it in a way that is consistent with freedom of speech and watch international governments try to shut you down.
Shut up about the First Amendment not applying to private platforms.
Just shut up about it, okay?
This is a foreign entity that has a vested interest, the EU and the United States, being powerless, certainly less powerful than we are right now.
Telling the private platform, we're going to turn the screws until you can't have a financially solvent platform unless you remove the speech that we don't like.
And let's get rid of this, when people talk about hate speech, does anyone actually believe, look, you may not like Donald Trump, anyone actually believe there's any hate speech in that interview?
There wasn't even any cussing, or very little, if I remember correctly.
The argument that, well, hate speech isn't allowed, sorry, that doesn't work, Tim Walz, there is no hate speech, and the idea that it's a private platform, they can do what they want, sorry, no longer applies when you have members of the EU Commission or you have members of a misinformation board here in the United States telling Spotify which episodes of Joe Rogan need to be removed.
Let's stop with this, okay?
I get it, I was a libertarian once too.
We can be fun when you're in college.
Also, this didn't have anything to do with them.
It's like they inserted themselves, like, we're not talking about you, EU.
Shut up and stay irrelevant.
Why can't we have a leader, too, to publicly go out there and go, yeah, screw you.
Right.
Shut up.
You're not going to do anything.
Right.
Keep talking.
You're not going to do anything.
Well, Rumble does that.
That's why we're appreciative to them.
But you know what?
Elon invited Kamala Harris, too.
Yeah.
Nope.
She won't do it.
So look at people on the right.
And by the way, Elon Musk is not a conservative.
But people on the right, look at how they behave.
And I mean, this is a very important contrast.
Okay?
The NABJ invite both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris.
He shows up to a hostile audience.
She doesn't show up at all.
Elon Musk invites both to an ex-conversation.
Donald Trump shows up.
She doesn't.
So the invitations are extended to both when it's someone on the right.
And then the left, people in the EU say, we want to shut down one of those.
And it's the only one who accepted it because they want to speak directly to the people.
These are fascist oligarchs by new names.
That's not a hint of hyperbole.
Someone in the EU who thinks that they get to determine, first off, what a business can do, That's why it's no longer a private business when you're talking about the First Amendment.
It needs to apply to the digital sector.
But someone in the EU dictating that you, the American people, can't watch the most popular presidential candidate of all time make his pitch?
While we send billions of dollars to one of your countries to fight a war?
Right.
Yeah.
NATO.
Isn't that fun?
It's the, we need more money please club.
Okay.
So this also ties in with last week, right?
London's Metropolitan Police Chief said that they would be now coming after Americans who violate British speech laws.
I know you're thinking, this is crazy.
There's no way.
Well, they think there is.
What are you considering when it comes to dealing with people who are whipping up this kind of behavior from behind a keyboard, maybe in a different country?
Being a keyboard warrior does not make you safe from the law.
You can be guilty of offences of incitement.
That sounds like Michael Caine.
There are numerous terrorist offences regarding the publishing of material.
All of those offences are in play if people are provoking hatred and violence on the streets.
And we'll come after those individuals just as we will physically confront on the streets the thugs and the obvs who are causing the problems for communities.
Let's be clear, you're talking about a country that is part of the union that believes Donald Trump speaking on X is incitement.
It's very easy to think incitement means, hey, go kill this person.
No, that's already illegal.
They believe that Donald Trump speaking with Elon Musk is incitement.
Those are the people they want to arrest.
They've arrested people for... There was a man arrested for calling a horse gay, we talked about it yesterday, for telling a cop, an autistic kid told a cop that he looked like her lesbian friend, her lesbian aunt, and the cop did.
She.
She.
It's always hard with them, they kind of run together, British smiles.
She purely looks like a lesbian though.
Yes.
I feel like we need, this is kind of like the TikTok ban, we probably need to get you on record as having broken and violated British law and have an arrest warrant for you.
It's almost like a badge of honor at this point.
I feel like you kind of have to do it.
Well, there were responses from some Americans, some good ones.
Matt Tybee responded, the one thing that could unite America, reconnect us to our deepest purpose, is giving England a good ass-whipping.
James Woods made some great comments here.
And this is actually where you were banned, Josh, because in context you said... Well, I don't think we can say it.
I don't know if we can say it on YouTube.
You can say it on... Yeah, you can say it.
You'll have to hit the YouTube dumb button.
It's rough, but certainly not bannable if you understand in context.
What you said was... Well, I'd like to make a public apology.
Okay.
If that's alright.
Yeah. Um. So, uh, go follow him on Instagram by the way.
It's Josh underscore Firestein.
I will not be back on Twitter, X. They have said that, and again, in context... I still support the platform, but I broke the rules.
In context, again, it's about if you come over here and try and enforce this, we'll kill you like we killed your ancestors, is what you were saying, and this is one thing, this is why you've heard me say, I'll never say there's never an appropriate time for political violence, because you know what?
I like that some redcoats got dusted!
I wasn't really- I don't think it was political violence, though.
I think it was just, uh, like a- like a- like a statement, like a- Yes!
Hey, just so you know, if you guys come over here... Pfft.
Not good.
No!
Bad idea!
It's the modern version of the- of the Gadsden flag.
Or as that one rapper said, be bad for your health.
Right.
And... I forget who said it, but... Also, uh... Also, please do follow him on Instagram because, you know, Josh has- since he has to scratch the itch and he's taken to...
Trying to fill that void around the office, and it's getting old.
What's up, man?
Hey, what's going on?
What the heck is that?
Oh, uh, Josh has been using post-it notes because he can't post on Twitter anymore, so he's using those to post things.
Seriously?
Yeah.
How many licks does it take to get to the center of my depression?
It's dark.
It is pretty dark.
Josh!
Come on, man!
Really?
Frickin' putting posts everywhere.
Should we change the name of hemorrhoids to Athlete's Butt?
Athletes butt.
Oops, I sharted again.
Hashtag free... Wait a minute, hold on.
Oops, I sharted again.
Okay, I like that.
Yeah, that's cool.
I think this is what I'm supposed to do right here.
here. Josh is still an idiot.
Some some of them are nice. But the thing is, people are worried
about different threats.
China, right?
Russia.
I think we've been sort of sleeping on the Brits.
I don't know if you know this.
Historically, they pulled some shit.
And they're kind of trying to do it again.
A little bit.
I'm just saying.
I don't think that we're as friendly as maybe we thought if they're trying to curtail freedom of speech here in the United States of America.
It's okay.
Keep your authoritarian bullcrap on your side of the pond.
And, you know, we'll keep our country as the one that beat your ass.
That's my point of view.
And by the way, this is the issue.
You have too many Americans who will acquiesce to it now because many people in the United States, namely the entire Democrat Party, want us to be more like socialist Europe.
I don't.
That's why I think we're setting apart.
But I think it might be tough.
If you're talking about American Revolution today, I don't think it would happen.
We actually conducted our own experiment to see what a Paul Revere type situation would be.
The British are coming!
The British are coming!
Ah!
It's ten in the godforsaken morning!
Folks are trying to f***ing sleep!
But the British are coming.
Ten?
I'm gonna shut the f*** up too!
Let's define a f*** around and find out!
Sir, I shall have you understand.
Oh!
Oh, you want to find out?
They'll find out, too.
They'll find out, too.
F*** around.
You will find out now.
But they're coming for you.
Oh, yeah.
I'm coming for you.
I'm coming for your ass.
We're coming for that ass after I sleep in.
And you and your red coat f***ing friends should f*** up, too.
You destined.
I'll f*** up your whole world.
Whole world.
Well, we've commented on the escalation of the rising crime rates.
I like America the way it is.
I would have gone to a different neighborhood first.
Yeah, well, you know what?
We didn't have it in the budget at the time.
Plus, he had the three-car pileup.
We're going to go on here with the fact-checking, but if you want to support us, if you're not a member of Mug Club, that is the number one way as we go to the election.
But go to CrowderShop.com, you can buy any of the clothes that we're wearing here.
Crowdershop.com, just some patriotic gear to let people know that, you know, you're a little freaky.
Okay.
The Donald Trump fight like hell shirt.
Yeah, we do have the Donald Trump fight like hell shirt.
Yep.
And all the proceeds go to the Trump campaign.
And it's been a pretty sizable chunk.
So thank you guys for doing that.
All right.
X, Elon Musk, Donald Trump.
All right.
Some numbers are being thrown around.
People are saying a billion.
People are saying... X is not the same as YouTube.
X is not the same as Rumble, the way that they count live viewers.
It ends up being an aggregate.
And if someone sees something or could see something in their timeline for two seconds, that'll be counted as a view.
So I just want to be clear about that full disclosure.
That's why we don't really know what the numbers are.
But millions of people, at least millions of people who watch for several minutes or more.
Beyond that, we don't really know.
A lot of people tuned in yesterday.
This is a big deal.
Okay?
And Kamala Harris is using it to raise money, and of course we saw the EU try and censor this.
You have to ask yourself, why?
Well, a few reasons, but the most fun of which is that listeners definitely got some classic Trump.
Oh no, I lost this one.
You lost this one?
This is kind of a big deal!
That's kind of a big deal!
That is a big deal.
We don't have it?
Oh lord.
Yeah, it's in the wrong slot.
Killing all of you.
Alright, well then you know what?
It's time to, uh, let's just go straight into the point by point anyway.
time to fact check the fact checkers. Tweet check. Fact Trump. Trump fact check tweet. Fact check.
News. Okay so right after uh this interview took place. I got it now if we want to play it.
Alright, then you're gonna have to hit the stinger again, okay?
We're gonna take this from the top.
Okay?
This is why no one does live, you understand?
Most of the live things you watch are just actually cut up and then they're uploaded because stuff like this can happen, and I feel great shame.
Let's start this off.
People tuned in and they definitely got a dose of classic Trump.
We had a man that actually made it, it made it more prevalent.
So bad, the words that he was using, the stupid threats coming from a stupid face.
If you're a worker or if you're a just a middle income person, you can't afford, you know, four years ago, five years ago, people were saving a lot of money.
Today, they're using all their money and borrowing money just to live.
It's a horrible thing that's happening.
New head of a place called Argentina.
And he's a big, you know, he's great.
He's a big MAGA fan.
You know that he ran on MAGA.
And he took it to an extreme, too.
He ran on MAGA.
And I hear he's doing really a terrific job.
It's called Make Argentina Great Again.
It worked out perfectly.
I hate to mention certain states, but Illinois is badly run with Pritzker.
He's a he's a real loser.
On Time Magazine today, she looks like the most beautiful actress ever to live.
It was a drawing.
And she looked very much like a great first lady, Melania.
Didn't look she didn't look like Camilla.
That's right.
Beautiful woman.
So we'll leave it at that.
And by the way, do people think it's accidental?
No.
He said Camilla on purpose because she was a dog.
She didn't look like that filthy dog, Camilla, who cut the seatbelts in Princess Di's limo.
I love those stupid threads from his stupid face.
Yes, her stupid face.
She looked very beautiful.
Because it was a drawing.
It wasn't her.
It wasn't actually a picture, folks.
But he was surprisingly reserved, and when the chat started yesterday again, so what you have is, let's add this up.
They invite Elon Musk, right?
X. Invites Donald Trump, invites Kamala Harris.
Okay, put that on the shelf for a little bit.
EU says, hey, hey, you can't have this.
You can't have Donald Trump on.
We're threatening you to ban X. Then, a major DDoS attack.
And of course the left is saying that's just made up.
Again, just following it logically, does it seem like there was an attack already going on?
You had government saying ban this entire conversation.
It would stand to reason there was a DDoS attack.
And by the way, it caused the stream to crash.
Thankfully, they did finally catch the hacker in question.
Yeah, that one seems... Come on!
Elon's not bringing his army.
He's gonna come from space!
And then the Kamala campaign, because they're professional victims, right, put out this seething message after the Space Senate.
Keep in mind, she was invited to...
Donald Trump's extremism and dangerous Project 2025 agenda is a feature, not a glitch, of his campaign, which was on full display for those unlucky enough to listen in tonight during whatever that was on X. What?
Trump's entire campaign is in service of people like Elon Musk and himself.
Self-obsessed rich guys who will sell out the middle class and who cannot even run a live stream in the year 2024.
Okay, how about running a border?
And how about showing up?
Hey, you know what?
You don't even need to show up on X because I get it, right?
You're really afraid that Elon Musk is a very hostile audience.
How about showing up to the National Association of Black Journalists?
There you go.
You spineless, useless coward.
That's not sexism.
I would say it if you were a dude, too.
But you're not.
And that's another point that may be a problem.
And that brings us to fact-checking the fact-checkers.
Tweet check.
Fact.
Trump.
Trump.
Fact.
Check.
Tweet.
Fact check.
So, we listened to the whole interview, okay?
I'm going to lay out for you what Donald Trump said, and then show you the claims that are out there.
So please, if you can hit like, you can share this, because this is based on the most prominent claims that you are seeing from the left right now that have been trending.
And of course, CNN issued a whole 20-something fact check response, which is completely false.
We give you all of the references.
So, here is first.
What?
Just the fact she's calling him a rich guy, can't run a live stream.
She's obsessed with buses.
He sent rockets to space.
I know.
In service to him, as my administration calls on Google and Spotify.
To censor Joe Rogan and, by name, Steven Crowder.
You know that's a thing, right, at the Recode Conference?
You had senators calling for this to be banned.
That's why we're supported by YouMugClub.
It's surreal when you watch senators and committees sit talking about banning your channel over things like a blow-up doll.
That has been retired.
The cowardice is unreal to me.
It's completely real, let's be honest.
Okay, here is what Donald Trump said, or he spoke, and then of course the left was trying
to paint it in a different light.
But first, here, listen to this.
You know, the biggest threat is not global warming, where the ocean's going to rise one
eighth of an inch over the next 400 years.
The big end, you'll have more oceanfront property, right?
The biggest threat is not that.
The biggest threat is nuclear warming.
Okay.
Now, first off, anyone who acts as though they don't understand that he's joking is lying to you.
He did the same with Elon Musk, right, where he spent 20 minutes crapping on EVs.
I believe it was in Atlanta.
He said, they're awful, they're okay for a niche, but you know what an electric charger is?
It's basically a gas pump with an outlet, but now I have to support electric vehicles because Elon's been good to me, right?
I have to support electric.
And he went on to dump on electric.
He's clearly making the point that everyone knows if we were worried about the ocean levels rising to the degree that had been predicted, billionaires would not be buying oceanfront property.
Okay.
So that was the point that he was making.
Now here is the claim from the left.
And this is everywhere.
And it confused me because I listened to their examples and it still didn't make sense.
And scooting along the floor.
Right.
Now here's the truth.
He wasn't slurring.
It was very clearly an audio compression problem.
It happens often if you're on speakerphone or Wi-Fi.
So, just to give you an idea, in March of 2023, Zoom actually released a PSA on how to fix the, quote, lisp on their platform.
In case you don't believe me, we'll give you a very clear example, putting it through the same kind of processor, what kind of result you would get with Kamala Harris.
Here is Kamala Harris initially, the clean version.
Having to stress and stretch limited resources.
That's about a source of stress for families that is not only economic, but is on a daily level, something that is a heavy weight to carry.
Now, let's listen to it through this Zoom pseudo-processor.
Having to stress and stretch limited resources.
That's about a source of stress for families that is not only economic, but is on a daily level, Donald Trump didn't slur his speech.
Go watch the entire interview, listen to it, hear it for yourself.
we can consider this one pretty easily fact-checked.
That's a fact check that any radio interview they do with somebody on the phone.
No, it's S's and last 100 years. S's implosives. If there's no pop filter here
Will distort it. Same thing.
It's very, very well known.
I tell you, this is someone who's worked professionally in voice work for several decades.
It's well known.
So this is how paper-thin their claims are.
But it's everywhere.
It's everywhere.
They're trying to say that he's in cognitive decline because they really want to try and present Kamala Harris as energetic.
You're telling me a guy is in cognitive decline that can sit there and just have this conversation for over two hours?
And every time they tried to end the conversation, they kept going.
This guy is not in cognitive decline.
He is pulling facts and figures from all over the place.
You may not like how he does it, you may not like what he says, but you cannot make the argument that he's going downhill.
No.
And there were no other examples aside from the S's that sounded like he was slurring his words or messing up his speech, or even not being able to maintain his train of thought, verbal fluidity.
It was all pretty much exactly what you would expect, for better or worse, depending on your opinion.
Let's go to the next one.
Here's Donald Trump speaking on Kamala Harris, The Borders Are.
Okay, that seems pretty straightforward.
Very straightforward.
He's saying he was strong on the border.
We're going to be strong.
Well, she doesn't have to say if he could close it up right now.
They could they could do things right now.
It's horrible.
OK, that seems pretty straightforward.
Very straightforward.
But the claim from the left is that Harris was actually never the Borders are.
You're seeing this everywhere right now as they fact-check Donald Trump on this statement.
Is that Brian Krasenstein or whatever his name is?
He's a little prick.
How do you really feel, Jeremy?
Those guys!
I know.
It's journalism.
Here's the truth, obviously.
We'll give you a bunch of examples, but Biden himself named her the Border Czar in March 2021.
You haven't been to the border.
And I haven't been to Europe.
I mean, I don't understand the point that you're making.
Sorry, right clip.
Vice President agreed among the multiple other things that have happened.
I appreciate it.
Agreed to lead our diplomatic effort and work with those nations to accept the Chinese.
You say lead?
And enhance migration enforcement at their borders.
And I can think of nobody who, uh, who's better qualified to do this than a former... This is a woman who ran... You mispronounced anybody.
...the second largest Attorney General's office in America after the U.S., after the United States Attorney General.
Okay, so Biden announced it.
The White House acknowledged it.
There's another overlay.
Reference is available at ladderwithcreditor.com.
Click the link in the description.
We're the only show that provide them every single day.
And many media outlets actually referred to her as the Borders Are.
If you're blaming us for calling her the Borders Are, kindly... I have to be careful because Josh has been banned.
kindly accept our and have a great weekend.
I just can't help it.
It's a spice.
I can't help it.
When someone says, hey, check out our Borders Are.
You're like, which one?
That Borders Are?
That's not a Borders Are.
What's happening?
I said person in charge of the border, not czar.
No, no, you actually said border czar.
Oh yeah, I did say that.
Ah, son of a gun.
But I didn't mean that.
That was actually the border tard.
Different thing.
Yes.
That's a different type.
The border floozy.
No, I said border canard.
What?
Meaning it was a false example of, you know, I just didn't have anything to do with the border.
I have a stutter!
I have a stutter!
Leave me alone!
Let's go through the next one.
And this is one, of course, that CNN really likes to, they really like to use this example.
And the left, they've really switched.
When people say the parties have switched, of course, it's not the Southern Strategy and Strom Thurmond.
The parties have switched a little bit on their hawkishness on war.
And I'll bring you back to Barack Obama and Mitt Romney in the debates there, because I think it's pertinent.
But the left, of course, is furious about Donald Trump and his comments, which in context, I said to Vladimir Putin, I said, don't do it.
You can't do it, Vladimir.
It's going to be a bad day.
You cannot do it.
And I told him things that what I do And he said, no way.
And I said, way.
And you know, it's the last time we ever had the conversation.
He would never have done... I got along well with him.
I hope to get along well with him again.
You know, getting along well with them is a good thing, not a bad thing.
Who wrote that?
John Hughes?
And then he said, that it was totally radical.
And I said, cowabunga.
No way.
And I said, way.
I told him, I said, do not, do not have a cow, man.
That's what I said.
Then he asked me to eat.
He said, eat my shorts.
I said, I won't.
That's gross.
I'm a germaphobe.
And then we went and got some czar.
We went and got some czar.
Went down to the 7-Eleven.
Big gulps!
He's in the juice.
Don't you!
It was funny.
It was funny, but it actually is a good thing.
I agree with him.
Getting along with foreign leaders doesn't mean that you support them, and we'll go through the record.
Now, of course, the claim you're seeing, not just from the left, but neocons, this is the claim that they're making right now, and this is being disseminated across all of social media.
Of course, the people who Kamala supports, and she's in the pocket of Big Tech, they are saying that, well, actually, Putin And I don't know, comment below, do you think anyone is actually believing this?
It's pretty hard for me to believe that anyone buys this, but this is what they are selling.
That Putin sees Donald Trump as the easier target.
One, just that story, but also Trump's argue of how much influence he has on the rest of the world.
That guy's still alive.
He certainly didn't have that conversation with Putin when I was in the White House.
I don't believe he had it before then.
I can't really speak to what came after.
I personally, having watched Trump and Putin together on several occasions, having listened into their phone conversations, having myself met Putin on any number of occasions going back to October of 2001, I think that Putin essentially thinks that Trump is an easy mark.
And before I get to the truth, again, I want to give you context.
The left constantly said that the right were living in the past if they believed that Russia was a threat at all.
Here's always been the perspective of Russia.
For mainstream conservatives, and you can correct me if you disagree with me, but this has always been my understanding being around conservatives day in and day out.
Russia could potentially be a threat.
We don't trust Vladimir Putin any further than we can throw him, but they are not an active threat right now that requires foreign intervention.
That has pretty much been consistent since I've been 16 years old, but I remember this in the debate between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney.
I just threw up in my mouth a little.
He sucks!
She became a Trump voter.
Here is Obama talking to Romney about Russia.
A few months ago when you were asked what's the biggest geopolitical threat facing America, you said Russia.
Not Al Qaeda, you said Russia.
And the 1980s are now calling to ask for their foreign policy back.
What's with the 80s insults?
It is.
He said no way, I said wait.
And they called, they said they want the hairdo back.
Talk to the hand.
Cause the face is pissed!
Cause the face is pissed!
It got all wee-wee'd up!
Remember when you made up terms?
Yes.
I'll have what she's having.
Exactly.
Did I do that?
And I asked Nigel Farage, got any cheese?
Where's the beef?
3, 2, 1.
1, 2, 3.
What the hell's bothering me?
I asked Nigel Farage, got any cheese?
Where's the beef?
3, 2, 1, not not not, 1, 2, 3.
What the hell is bothering me, is what I said.
Are you just doing family matters?
Just a little bit, yeah.
Just a little bit.
You're gonna get your wham burger!
Yes!
Bolton is one of the most irrelevant gasbags.
So here's the truth, okay?
In understanding all of that, the truth is that Donald Trump held Putin in check in a way that no other modern world leaders have.
Now, I don't think that there's anything wrong with being friendly We're having a working relationship with people in other governments.
Here's the thing.
It's not even close to China, as far as being a threat.
The left have friendly alliances with people who want to wipe us off the face of the map all the time.
Think about it.
Barack Obama made this exact same argument, except he made it for Iran!
So it's nothing new.
There's a very big difference between an active threat that is trying to conquer your land, let's say Europe with Hitler, someone like a Churchill with Hitler dealing with him, versus someone who in a faraway land may be a threat to people around him, but you hope that you can maybe keep them in check through diplomatic measures.
I don't...
Well, I do know when that became a bad thing.
Precisely when Donald Trump was the most anti-war president ever.
Code Pink?
You don't see him.
They disappeared.
So let's go through the actual record.
The truth is that Donald Trump held Putin in check.
2008, under Bush, Russia invaded Georgia.
If you remember, John McCain said, we're all Georgians today, my friend.
And then 2014, under Obama, Russia invaded Crimea.
Skip, skip, skip, skip, skip.
2022, under Biden, Russia invaded Ukraine.
Notice there's one gap there where nothing happened.
Now, does it mean that it was entirely because of Donald Trump?
No, it does not.
Was it a factor?
Abso-frickin-lutely, I have no doubt because crazy beats big every time.
Also, Donald Trump, if you look at his specific policies, blocked Nord Stream 2, right?
He revoked the INF nuclear treaty when he found out that Russia was cheating on the obligations that they had.
And NATO even supported Donald Trump's decision.
And for the first time ever, if you're talking about the threat that is Russia, Donald Trump got other countries to finally pay what they were obligated to pay into NATO.
No one else did.
Russia was on its heels.
The idea that Russia views Donald Trump as the easy rollover The record just doesn't show it.
Consider that one done.
Yeah, and he basically- EXCUSE ME!
FACT CHECK!
It worked out perfectly.
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to interrupt you, sir.
Yes.
He pretty much DM'd Putin a post when he fricasseed Soleimani.
He's like, hey, look at this.
Look how I handle people who don't do what I like.
Yes.
You think he was scared of Biden?
Biden couldn't stand at a WWII ceremony without wandering off and having the other world leaders have to corral him in.
He was an empty chair.
Donald Trump was not just crazy, he's a businessman.
And he also knows how to negotiate.
He makes threats and you don't know if he's going to follow through.
If you were to follow the left, they just, they can't help, just give them time, they will always be inconsistent and they will contradict themselves.
They said that there was Russia collusion for the election to get Trump into office.
So Russia deliberately got Donald Trump into office so that they wouldn't Right.
fight a war for land during those four years only to start it up with the administration
who apparently they were actively fighting against according to the left because they
were afraid of Joe Biden?
Yeah, it makes sense to me.
Yeah.
Yeah, that adds up.
This is the timeline of the left.
You go from Barack Obama, Russia's not a threat, and hey, we could be buddies with Iran, to
Russia's trying to get Donald Trump elected because they want to take over the world,
nothing happens, nothing happens, nothing happens.
Russia's afraid of Joe Biden, Joe Biden gets elected and Russia right away starts to pop
shit off.
Does that that is that a logic trail you can follow All right, here's the next one.
Donald Trump was discussing on this stream inflation, of course, one of the biggest issues facing Americans today.
I think we have the worst inflation we've had in a hundred years.
They say it's 48 years.
I don't believe it.
I think we have the worst.
They don't include a lot of the items that should be included.
Okay, so here's the claim that the left is making, and CNN in particular.
They say that Trump framed this in a way that is baseless.
He framed it kind of as an opinion, but it's wrong in two different ways.
Hold on a second.
If he says this is the number they give you, but in my opinion it's worse, how could that possibly be wrong?
So, let me go through the numbers here.
Inflation was only at 41-year highs at 9.1% in June of 2022.
That's a lot of years difference.
And inflation is coming down rapidly according to CNN, right?
So that's their fact check, just to give you.
Their fact check is actually inflation is a 41-year high, okay?
And they're wrong about that.
Here's the truth.
Donald Trump was actually being very conservative because peak inflation was much higher than has been listed publicly.
New inflation measures, for example, if you're to compare how we measure inflation now, compared to back when Carter was president, it excludes some things, like mortgages.
Kind of a big one.
It's a big one, yeah.
Huge.
When you actually include those numbers, month over month, inflation under Biden, it was as high as 16.4%.
That's just in a month, month over month.
That would be the highest, if you use the same measuring parameters, the highest inflation since Truman.
For those of you who don't know, he's the guy who dropped the A-bomb.
Spent a lot of money on it.
Is that more than 40 years?
In the whole war and everything else.
That's more than 40 years, right?
Quite a bit.
Okay.
He's the guy who came after the wheelchair guy.
Oh, okay.
Greg Abbott?
He came from rollin' to walkin'.
And here's another truth, by the way.
Another truth for you.
Inflation is still, right now, at its highest in well over a decade.
So if you're just comparing Donald Trump and Biden, and if you were comparing Barack Obama and Donald Trump and Biden, it's not even close.
And then if you compare Biden to ALL of American history, it's even worse!
Prices have gone up at least 20% since Biden has taken office.
At least 20%.
Now, I will tell you this, opinion, before I get fact-checked, I don't believe that horse crap for a second.
20% is far too low.
If you look at your grocery bill, Biden taking office and now you look at what you are paying
for gas, you look at the prices of homes, let alone you're talking about the rates, it's
not even close.
As a matter of fact, I've looked through these numbers and the lowest individual sort of
goods or services that I can see as far as inflation is apparel and I believe that's
still well into the teens.
You have plenty that are in 30, 40, 50, 70 percent of essential items.
20 is low-balling it, but using the same metrics, we do have the highest inflation that we have
seen in this country since Truman.
You can consider that one fact-checked.
Extra fact-check!
Ha ha!
And the one thing, though, too, that kind of got lost in the shuffle, it's a little bit sad, because this ex obviously interviews what's... it's sucking the wind, it's sucking the air out of the room.
Yeah.
And, you know, Hulk Hogan was at the RNC, was pretty popular.
And they've actually enlisted some other wrestlers to discuss these political issues,
these economic issues, including holograms of ones no longer with us.
Speaking of inflation.
With the election quickly approaching, the Biden-Harris administration is under fire
and in a limelight for their handling of the economy.
And what's this much?
How we doing?
Oh, yeah.
You know what I got right there?
It's not the economy.
You know what that is?
It's the economy.
It's a bluey.
No.
That's inflation right there, because that's what we had.
With the Biden-Harris Administration.
Yeah.
Inflation.
Yeah.
You know what they call inflation?
It's the hidden tax.
Because it affects everything.
CPI.
Core Index.
I don't want to interrupt the macho man, but I know it doesn't involve groceries or gas.
Over 20%!
Yeah.
The worst since the Carter Administration.
Because it's the silent tax for middle America.
Come on.
Some people even say the silent killer.
That's AIDS, Macho Man.
in America on November 5th, yeah.
That's AIDS, Macho Man.
It gets, don't interrupt Macho Man.
It irritates me.
Where comparatively speaking, you've got a man who can save you,
make that balloon small.
Or you got someone who can make the biggest balloon you've ever seen and be your silent killer.
And you know who that is, yeah.
Please tell us, Murph.
That's come a lie.
Say no.
Say no to come a lie.
We don't want no more lies, Firesteam.
Say it with me.
No more Camelot.
No more Camelot.
I wanna hear you say it with some enthusiasm.
No more Camelot.
There you have it, Inflation.
It's death.
I prefer Megan Thee Stallion.
Okay.
They don't.
Let's go to the next claim that they're making.
I like Reagan, the stallion.
Oh, here's what here's what Donald Trump said on the interview.
What he's done with with crime, with with cashless bail, where you kill somebody.
I mean, we have states there you kill somebody and they let you out right away.
I mean, you don't have to even put up and then they never find the people unless they kill again and then they let them out again.
Our country is becoming a very dangerous place.
Okay.
Now everything he just said is correct.
I did not know that.
Here's the CNN claim.
That both violent crime and property crime have actually dropped significantly in the years 2023 and the first quarter of 2024.
Here's the truth!
It doesn't matter!
It's far above pre-COVID levels in major cities, even accounting for the new misreporting.
So from 2019 to 2023, if we're looking at that number, murder, up 18%.
Assault with a firearm, up 32%.
Auto theft, up 105%.
Even with the funging of the numbers, and that's really important, by the way, to remember here.
Because they will try and change the numbers and tell you that it's not really happening.
They will just try and change the game and say, well, she wasn't really a border czar.
They will try and hide the numbers as it relates to Putin and the amount of invasions that have taken place under different presidents' watch.
They simply try and change them so that they can never be fact-checked while they fact-check factually correct statements.
Keep in mind, when we are talking about this, Harris supported a bail fund.
that released violent criminals out into the public during the George Floyd riots who went
on to commit violent crimes. To solve crime, Harris, remember I don't know if you know this,
she's vice president now, she's had quite a few proposals including cashless bail, meaning no cash.
You just get out.
Yeah.
Reducing sentencing and increasing welfare spending.
This has been her approach to crime.
And yes, there are people who have been, I know in New York and in San Francisco.
He said murder and I was like, no, there's no way.
Is he conflating something?
And you were like, no, absolutely not.
There was, I think, a case in San Jose or something like that where somebody was let out who was actually being, I guess, looked at for murder.
And they let him back out.
I was like, there's no way.
Like, I'm sorry.
There have been people who have committed.
It was a giant bond murder.
It's kind of a big one.
And many examples of violent assault with a deadly weapon, they're released, they commit it again, they're released
again.
This has happened. Look, believe your lion eyes and believe your lion ears.
You know that this is going on. Anecdotal is not evidence in the face of the empirical.
But when you have a graph doing this, the empirical as far as crime, and all of a sudden there's an anomaly that goes
BOOM!
And anecdotally you're still experiencing the same thing in your reality.
Oh, wait a second.
They're no longer reporting crimes.
And it's still worse.
Pre-COVID levels.
Crime.
Crime today.
Not even close.
Let's go on to the next one.
Here's Donald Trump during the interview, which of course I had to fact check wrongly, speaking about immigration.
There's never been a country in history that has had a catastrophe like this. We've had, I believe,
and I think you believe this too, you know, you hear 12 million, 13...
I believe it's over 20 million people came into our country.
Okay, again, he said, you hear this figure, I believe that it's actually this.
He's being very clear that he's trying to tell you they're not telling the truth with the numbers.
Right.
Here's the claim from the fact-checkers, who we are fact-checking, CNN.
They said that his 20 million figure is false.
A major exaggeration.
Okay, here's the truth.
It's not even close to an exaggeration.
So let me give you the numbers that he cited, and let me explain to you where he comes to the final number in his opinion, which is not really an opinion at this point.
Over 10 million illegals, right, they've entered since Biden-Harris have taken office.
Okay.
Those are just the ones we know about, and those are just the encounters with the CBP.
Okay?
You have studies out there that put the number, they estimate around one-third of illegal crossings are not caught at all.
One-third.
So you've got $10 million and that may account for one-third, right?
Okay, let's play this conservatively.
Those numbers now, they now go to $14.7 million.
$14.7 million illegal immigrants.
You just add visa overstays on top of that, about $850,000 a year.
That number is now at $18 million conservatively.
Now, let's add the number.
We don't actually have the number because I don't want you to know the number.
So yeah, flying in asylum seekers, that number is absolutely close to 20 million.
On the low end, 18 million.
The 10 million number is just encounters at the border with CBP.
So he's saying this is a number that you hear.
I believe it's higher.
I believe it's closer to 20 million.
You'd actually have to be proactively lying to say that the 20 million number is not more accurate than the isolated 10 million number.
It's not an exaggeration.
He was correct.
And of course, we don't really know because we have sanctuary cities.
Because we can't know how many people are here illegally off the books if they're not actually caught.
That's the problem with illegal immigration.
Consider that one done.
We have a few more to rattle through, don't we?
We do have a couple more.
All right.
Here's another claim from CNN.
They said that there's no proof Venezuela deliberately, and I'm going to go through these quickly because hopefully if you check the references, just trust me on these next ones.
They said that there's no proof that Venezuela deliberately emptied its prisons.
Here's the truth.
September 2022, Maduro released violent prisoners, including murderers and rapists.
He then pushed them to join migrant caravans.
Jerk.
And a Venezuelan illegal did kill Lake and Riley.
So can you prove all of it?
Nope.
Can you prove some of it?
Yep.
Does CNN care?
Nope.
Doesn't matter how many of you die at the hands of illegal aliens.
Here's another claim that CNN made to fact-check Trump, that Trump made the claim that Iran had, quote, no money for terror groups during his presidency, and that that claim is false.
Here's the truth.
Iran's foreign minister said that Trump's sanctions cost Iran $1 trillion.
That's a lot.
This is according to Al Jazeera.
That's a lot.
When you put a T after the dollar thing, yeah, that's a- A trillion dollars.
Here's another CNN claim from the Xtreme that the 2020 election was not rigged.
Donald Trump has no right to speak on this.
Here's the truth.
Well, you already well know this, but we won't go through everything.
The Hunter Biden laptop story was suppressed and the FBI was meeting with Big Tech knowing that it was true.
Lied to you and Big Tech said that it was Russian.
was Russian disinformation. 17% of Biden voters said they would have changed their vote if they
knew that the laptop was legitimate. That's not even getting into all the policies violating their
state constitutions like Pennsylvania, mass mail-in voting, and no voter ID in some states.
Here's another claim that CNN made, that there's no evidence that Biden administration was behind
any of the cases against Donald Trump. This one requires a little bit just because there's a video
of it actually happening.
Here's the truth.
Biden talking, saying this in 2020.
Do you have this clip?
No.
In 2022?
No.
This wasn't cut.
All right.
So here's the thing.
The clip is Biden saying, and we'll use every measure that we have.
We'll throw everything at him that we have.
I'm going by rote here.
I'm sure we can bring it back up.
But Biden said that he was going to use lawfare to fight against Trump.
Again, you have to take my word for it because we've gone through all of these so many times.
CNN is just lazy.
They are banking on you being dumb.
And we actually, in just a minute, we can go, we should probably just go to Mug Club here really quickly and kind of finish up, but we've got something interesting coming from CNN.
