Time Text
You know, melanoma, skin cancer.
We're like, yeah, well, that's actually because of those Mexican slowriders.
Like, what is it?
No, it's like, that's us.
It's just we have fair skin.
We have fair.
It's a white.
We're not blaming black people.
That's our problem.
I have an idea.
Maybe, maybe.
Maybe we stop with all the PSAs.
Maybe we're getting in the way of survival of the fittest a little too much.
I think that's a good thing.
If you were considering moving into New Zealand, maybe you're not now.
That's true.
I just mean maybe if we like, you know, maybe don't pay attention to these things.
You know, like maybe if we just throw peanut butter at the world, eventually this problem solves itself.
You know what I mean?
The peanut allergy thing kind of goes away.
The problem solves itself.
If you're huffing gasoline, maybe you deserve some consequences.
If you're going to stand on train tracks for a train, maybe it's like, you know, eventually maybe people won't stand on train tracks.
Oh, and maybe we give like a DIY subsidy to people who do their trans surgeries at home.
Yes.
Ah, that's good.
Yeah, we'll give you a $5,000 subsidy, especially if you buy your tools at, well, I guess Bed Bath isn't around anymore.
What would be the William Sonoma?
I love that.
We're going to give you a $500 William Sonoma gift card.
A free copy of Mutilation for Dummies.
Yes, exactly.
There you go.
Yeah, yeah.
Problem solves itself.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I think you're right.
Maybe like, you know, we had a few too many PSAs that don't play with blasting caps, and a few generations later, we end up with the trans extravaganza.
Absolutely dude.
You know what the Bible does?
There's no PSA.
Transaganza?
Trans Aganza.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
The Bible's not like, hey, make sure you go and work so that you can eat.
It's like, if he's hungry, he'll work so he can eat.
Let his stomach be his guide.
Move on to the next project.
I know.
My stomach's my guide, but that's how I got food poisoning.
Oh, well.
So did I. I had bad beef the other day.
Bad beef?
Oh, yeah.
You told me that.
Yeah.
From an unlikely source.
It was pre-cooked beef from Costco.
That's usually fine.
And it smelled like poop.
And then I had a bite and I was like, it tastes like poop.
And I just spat it out.
And then I didn't sleep all night because my stomach was going, remember me?
I tell you what, I got a hot dog yesterday from Costco for lunch.
Me and Johnny Boy, we got Costco hot dogs.
Yeah.
I felt, I was like, ooh, this is kind of iffy because Steven told me about it.
No, no, that's fine.
That's fine.
It's just a specific, or as Gerald refers to, the best hot dog on earth, period, bar none.
It's a good hot dog for the money.
There is not a better hot dog than Costco.
It is pretty good, though.
It's good.
I don't know what it's made of, but it's pretty good.
I mean, it's a hot dog.
It's a very good hot dog.
It's a good hot dog.
It's not the best hot dog ever in the history of the world.
They just go to churos, though.
I love Glizzy's.
Let's go to, again, not all cultures being created equal.
And I know I've already made the case because like two people die every minute from trains in India, mostly because they're taking selfies.
Not people on the trains.
No, not people on the trains.
Just like this.
Don't I look cool?
Well, you did.
It's their natural predator.
So I hope I don't die recording myself.
I know, ever.
Yeah.
But it would be like there's a difference dying recording yourself.
If you're like, you die because you're recording yourself and, you know, I don't know, some act of God happens and you get struck by lightning and it's not even storming.
People are like, well, that was kind of cool.
It's not as embarrassing as dying, recording yourself in front of what everyone can see is very clearly and predictably an object that is about to kill you in three, two.
So of course, all cultures equal.
Who could forget India's PSA, the Pooh in the Loo campaign, a real campaign.
More train tracks.
Why would they do that?
Wait, can I see the hand again, please?
Yeah, bring that back.
Because I'm going to say that almost seemed pro-poop on train tracks.
Yeah.
Watching it.
Like, they were all having a party on the train tracks.
Can you pause the very last?
Applejack, we believe in you.
You can do this.
Oh, no, keep going.
Keep going.
Aw, come on, man.
What's in the cans?
Is that gasoline?
Okay, hold on, pause.
Is this shit ever going to end?
India?
India has over 620 million people defecating in the open.
They said it themselves.
Guys, okay, look, India.
This is not hard to figure out.
It's not.
Animals use the corner.
But no.
But no.
But no, I do it here.
Like, it's almost like you have an entire nation of trolls who are like, I am going to take my shit in the most crowded area possible.
I'm going to do it where the train goes.
And then I'm going to take a selfie.
Like, you just go anywhere else.
You know, just go, just dig a hole.
I don't understand why the poops were dancing.
I don't understand.
And they're on.
They stay so the guy goes.
I don't understand the point.
The point of the commercial, I get it.
Stop pooping.
I guess on railroad.
Apparently not enough Indians get it.
No, because there's 620 million of them pooping in the open.
Almost twice the population of the United States.
I don't know which is the same thing.
It almost seems like the poops are shaming the man for pooping in the loop.
No, you're right.
It's like, you know, we're out here happy.
By the way, I love the flies.
Yeah, it's like the poop is saying like, hey, look, we're having a party.
Not like that guy who poops in the bathroom like a pussy.
What a loser.
We're a free-range poop.
What's in the cans?
What are they holding in the cans?
It sounds more poop.
Yeah, like a slushy poop, like, you know, maybe Mexican food last night, or in this case, Indian food.
I am going to poop across the beach.
I didn't need to cross the Atlantic.
I always do that for some reason.
India has plenty of poop.
Now, listen, I know what you might think.
Like, maybe pooping in a toilet or maybe not pooping in the public is a new idea.
I believe around 5,000 years ago in the book of Genesis, God was like, or Exodus, God was like, hey, hey, hey, here's an idea.
Maybe when you need to poop, go out and bury it.
Yeah, exactly.
He literally did that about 5,000.
I mean, call it 4,000 years ago.
God was like, I can smell you from here.
Yes.
I'm all the way up in heaven.
Stop building that tower.
You guys are bringing your...
The Tower of Babel.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They were just going up there to poop so God could smell it.
Yeah.
So he's like, you know what?
They weren't trying to get to heaven.
They were trying to get their smell to heaven.
And they were coordinating it too.
He's like, I'm going to give you guys like a thousand different languages so you can't coordinate your high up poop attacks, your high-altitude poop attacks.
It stinks.
I've had enough of it.
I've had enough of it.
Seriously.
Pyramids?
That's what it was for.
Seriously.
And this is how you know that the pantheism, the deities of Hinduism are satanic.
It's anti-God because God told you to shit in the woods and cover it.
You're slapping God in the face.
It's true.
I don't know which is worse.
158 million Muslims on earth who believe that violence against non-Muslims is justified or 620 million Indians who shit in the streets?
I don't know.
It's debatable.
At this point.
We have a space program.
Not really.
Isn't it crazy to think that a country with 620 million train track poopers have nukes?
What's up with the train track?
Why are there so many train tracks?
Is it like a main motive?
Or where else are they going to poop?
That's true.
You know how we build like next to rivers and things that do comes?
They build next to train tracks.
That's what they're for, actually.
They're not for the trains.
They have the rails.
You sit on the rail.
Yeah.
And you poop in between the ties.
That's exactly when it comes to India, by the way, they plan on tackling one poop problem at a time.
Next up.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Beautiful.
Hell, you are what you eat.
And I know what you're saying.
Hey, guys, this is a little too white supremacist.
Sure.
We did New Zealand.
Yeah.
We're covered.
And Australia.
And the Aborigines.
You know what?
I blame the white people for allowing it to go on.
That's what I do.
I blame them.
How in the sand?
It's the same continent.
I know.
It's the same continent where they make Toyotas.
That's true.
And that's where we're supposed to build the iPhone.
You know who's most mad about that?
The people who build Toyotas.
Yeah.
You guys are making us.
No.
Don't put us in the same pot.
No.
We make a great technology.
We have an award for tow truck in Japan.
De poopa on the train track, not Asia.
I bet Japan has toilets that make your poops disappear to another dimension.
Yeah.
Meanwhile.
It's the poopy verse.
Wanting pooping.
It all goes to India.
Yeah.
You go in.
It's like the Willy Wonka machine that just sends it to India.
It's just some engineer in Japan.
You walk in, there's a room with a bunch of red thread.
He's like, look, I found for every way the world could poop.
There is a poop which is that way.
That's why I have.
I kind of messed up there, but sorry, that was me.
Poo-poo portal.
My favorite poopa portal is your poop in the portal and in India.
Maybe that's why Japan made all their trains really fast.
They would just kill people immediately.
Maybe that's India's problem.
Actually, no more horns.
No more honking.
Make the trains really fast.
That's why all the Japanese car brands are just sounds that the Japanese people make when they smell Indians poop in the streets.
Honda!
Toyota!
Nissan!
Mitsubishi!
Oh my gosh.
Yomaha!
Suzuki!
Hei-ka-sake!
All jokes aside, the Japanese, they're great at making motors.
Yeah, they do a good job.
They're the best.
I'm sure there's one too.
I'm sure it's named because they have so like everything is a name of Japan.
There's one that's just like, fuck!
They don't have a chip for that in Japan.
If you can't.
What?
I can't wait for the new horror shit.
Fujiu!
Poopa everywhere.
India.
India.
Asia.
Asia's toilet.
They're so racist.
The Japanese are so racist.
You guys have no idea how bad racism can get if you haven't spent time with the Japanese.
She just, if they have any American black celebrity, they're like, put them on a beer board with bananas.
How many sex?
Yes.
They don't cater.
Oh, my gosh.
All right.
All right.
This was a fun show.
It's a palette cleanse.
It's Chat Thursday.
Let's get to that.
Chat!
Hippajack!
Hippajack!
You bring the greatest shame.
You must commit Sudoku.
Seppuku, I always get that one.
And I can't say Sudoku either.
There, I said it because you said it.
I can never get away with it.
You try Sudoku.
Pick a brain.
If not, a Seppaku.
If not, you drive a Suzuki off a bridge.
All right.
First chat from Rumble Foreskin.
Hello, Rumble.
Which potential Trump win will be the inflection point where the legacy media will be forced to either shut up or to admit that Trump's doing a good job?
They never will.
Never.
They never will.
Or they'll sandwich it, right?
They'll go, in the latest news, Trump steal, blah, blah, blah, blah, successful, blah, blah, blah.
But he also called this person a scum.
Right.
If Donald Trump personally, with a security detail, liberated every single closeted homosexual and trans individual from Iran and gave them free housing in San Francisco, they would find a way to tell you why That was fascist.
Trump could become trans.
He could get transition surgery and they'd be like, Trump appropriates trans culture.
Yeah, exactly.
Another move of hate.
Yeah.
Like, what?
Just like with Caitlin Jenner, where they made Woman of the Year and they're like, I vote Republican.
They're like, not one of us.
Man of the year.
The guy sucks.
Yeah.
Just all of a sudden.
So, no, they won't.
And this is why also, look, I know, and I've told you about this.
When I was at Fox News, they said, oh, well, you know, obviously we kind of, as a network, we hope Mitt Romney doesn't win because it's bad for us.
It's better to be the opposition.
And I was like, you think you're opposition because of who's in the White House?
Look, I am a contrarian by nature.
I just have a general problem with authority.
I understand that.
But I'm not going to be a contrarian against my own values just because that's better for clicks.
And that's why I think it's important to celebrate the wins.
And I mean this, it is super important to show Gen Z what their money got them, what their vote got them, because that is a huge, people were talking about demographic shifts and you didn't see it with the black.
You didn't see it with the black vote.
You did see it with the young vote across the board, and especially young Hispanic male vote.
Huge, right?
That's something that I think a lot of people didn't see coming.
You need to solidify that now because they're going to get more conservative unless they feel like they were duped.
And so anyone on the right actively saying you were duped, that's, I have a serious problem with that because we're always going to be the opposition to legacy media.
And by the way, that's just transitioning into big tech.
And yes, that includes X and Twitter with what we've seen.
You know, Elon Musk, you know, Ashley Sinclair making $27,000 in a week and anyone critical of H-1B visas being throttled.
So there's always a dragon to slay.
And you need to have a victory parade.
And I'm not saying that all is one, but what I'm saying is it is important.
You can't just beat people down and make them hopeless.
You need to find the right people to oppose.
Yeah.
And a very easy case to see.
And I know you've probably seen plenty of examples, but this was the most obvious example that the media could have gone like, hey, good job.
That was about the border.
In the toilet this time, Josh.
Joshua Goodrappa.
I'm just going to call him Indian Josh.
No, but it was the border.
Going from however many crossings we were having, sometimes, you know, many, many, many thousands of illegal crossings per day to none virtually.
And the media didn't run Victory Labs for that.
That's something that's phenomenally good for America.
Phenomenally good.
Even if you're a liberal and you want everybody to come here, you want them to do it legally.
Otherwise, they have to go through the coyote process and all that.
Dude, and they did it without even building up a wall.
Exactly.
In other words, passing a bill.
How could you be opposed?
Because people were like, well, this was a leftist argument.
They were going, well, I think that we do need to have, but if you think a wall is going to do anything, you're retarded.
And I was like, okay, well, now we didn't even build a wall and it fucking stopped.
So done.
It's done.
And they're like, oh, I can't believe that.
Oh, we're separating families.
Yeah, but you're never going to acknowledge the win.
No, never, ever, ever, ever.
Don't expect it.
And listen, I know people say this, you know, you don't hate the media enough.
You really don't.
You don't.
You really have no clue.
And we look at it as like, oh, they have a different perspective.
No, it's subversive.
The media.
And look, sometimes on the right, when I see Fox News parroting something about Israel or something, like Israel's our greatest ally.
And I'm like, why would you ever think that?
It doesn't mean that Israel's not an ally.
It just means why would, what have they done to become our greatest ally?
Right.
That's not the right message.
Even when it's on our side and it may kind of align roughly with what you think, it's still the wrong thing to be saying to people.
Yeah.
It's stupid.
Yeah.
It's just, it really is.
And, you know, look, I tell you this.
I remember had to sit through a luncheon with Eric Cantor and I was like, this fucking guy.
So like, but let's not act as though, and I get it.
A lot of times we had to vote and we're like, okay, we know they're kind of a rhino.
I mean, I can tell you this, every person here who voted for John McCain was like, son of a bitch.
Like, we didn't want to, but it was the only choice.
Yeah.
It was the only choice.
Fabric.
Mitt Romney for crying out loud.
I wrote a paper about how he was in a cult.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's like, it's like, look, but let's, no one's perfect.
This is not Rhino's same old sympathy.
It's not all the same.
He goes, it's all the same, you know party.
No, no.
If only for this one group, this is a rogue group who are doing things radically differently and nothing is perfect.
But my God, is it the best that I've seen in my lifetime?
And sure, we need to get on the debt.
Yep, I get it.
They're trying to do it.
1.7 trillion in cuts.
But I just, I think sometimes people, it's a lot easier to just say wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, and then tell everyone when the shit hits the fan, you have a lot of guns and then you'll really spring into action, but you're not really doing anything where you can actively help.
So next chat.
All right, next chat from the Mississippi gentleman.
Question for Stephen.
On the topic of racism, have you seen Carmelo Anthony has requested appointed counsel because his family is unable to pay?
Is it fraud considering he raised over 500K?
How is he not able to pay?
I mean, maybe they didn't pay him out.
Maybe that give, send, go didn't pay him out?
I don't.
No, it must be covered.
It could be like a delay of a few days.
Come on, you know the answer.
That is.
I hope he gets the very best.
Public defender who wants to kill himself.
Court appointed makes the very best.
This guy, unless there's some massive amount of information we don't know, deserves everything coming his way.
Stabbing a guy in the chest over being told to get out from under a tent.
Oh, they.
So I saw a comment I needed to verify.
Apparently they upped the give, send, go goal to 1.4 million.
Ah.
And what is it at now?
540,000?
I think they're done.
Yeah, I think they had the initial, you know, people going, white man, bad, black kid must be being railroaded.
And then people go like, oh, not this one, kid.
I've never been on trial for murder.
Good.
Good to know.
Good start.
And you can't see.
A lot of different sound bites.
You can fact-check me.
But I've never been on trial for murder.
I don't know how much a good counsel would cost.
A lot.
A lot.
Many point five millions of dollars.
The funny thing is criminal attorneys make far less because it's business attorneys where you make tons of money because that shit drags on forever.
They make many, many, that would cost many, many millions.
You know, when you're talking about Donald Trump defending those cases, I would imagine it would be, if it's not in the low, low seven figures, high, high, high, six figures for something like this for a good attorney.
Oh, so, okay.
So $550,000 isn't going to get him a good attorney then.
That probably would.
That certainly would get him through.
I mean, if it goes on for years, no, but I mean, he definitely could get the retainer and get an attorney.
He's not at the point now where he can't afford it.
I feel like he can get a pretty decent attorney for that for this.
But maybe research can tell us what the average, I don't know, murder charge trial costs.
I don't know if there's a number out there, but you can get somebody to represent you through this process.
Public defender.
And here's the thing.
We don't have all the information.
I'm not going to feel guilty for going like, ah, yeah, you're right.
It's my fault that I think his family spent it irresponsibly.
Yeah.
Or they didn't spend it yet because they don't have it yet, right?
Because they still have it up and it's still a goal.
It's not still a goal.
Do they not get the payout if they reach the $500,000?
I don't know how that works.
Can you draw it out?
Help us, research.
Help us.
Can you draw it out before you finish your campaign?
I think you have to finish it, don't you?
Either way.
You have to hit your goal.
No, I don't think I'm there.
You have to hit your goal.
You don't have to hit your goal, but I think you have to finish the campaign.
You got to be like, it's over.
Yeah.
Maybe.
Maybe.
I don't know.
I just, look, I bet you no matter what he raises, he's going to ask for a court appointed.
That would be my bet.
Yeah.
So far they've said cannot verify that he did request a court-appointed attorney.
What?
But they said it would be tens of thousands to pay a lawyer to see a full murder trial all the way through.
Expert witnesses cost a lot.
Tens of thousands?
Sounds good.
No, that sounds low.
In other words, $500,000 is more than enough to get a good attorney.
And if you need expert witnesses, we didn't even check the source of his question.
Yeah.
Well, I was the answer because someone assumed I didn't know if it was true or not.
So if it's not true, then you need to do a better job.
Be a better person.
Rumble, but we appreciate it.
I think it was Rumble Force.
No, that was Mississippi.
Oh, Mississippi.
Well, Mississippi, look, we still love you.
I got a lot of good qualities.
But if it's not true, verify.
Verify that shit.
Next one.
All right.
Next chat from Ibrahim Asmadeus.
With attempts to get Sharia in Texas and a Muslim governor in NYC, why are our politicians allowing this, especially seeing the storm the UK is weathering with Muslims?
Well, when you say, you mean the left?
Again, they're not all the same.
The right, certainly in Texas, is actively fighting against it while the left is actively encouraging it.
Again, you have to understand that the left, it all stems from Marxism, and they view the world as oppressor and oppressed, right?
In other words, there's no world in which, and when you go to Marxism, communism, where there's a business owner, a factory owner who has done it honorably, who has worked really hard.
That doesn't exist.
It's the bourgeois and it's the proletariat, and so you have to seize the means of production and distribution.
And so the actual morality is irrelevant if someone who is more moral has more than you.
And so they view the whole world as oppressor and oppressed.
In this case, they go, oh, Muslim, minority in the United States, so we're going to support the oppressed.
Now, of course, this fails to stand up at all to scrutiny when you see that it's LGBTQ flags next to Palestinian flags.
But they don't care because they're just picking a press group, a press group.
And you see it really, you see it very clearly.
For example, remember Stop Asian Hate?
I think is what it was.
They were using Asians for a period of time until they realized they were no longer useful and the crime stats came out that it was largely black people inflicting the violence upon the Asian community.
It's like, okay, you're not useful to us anymore, Asians.
That's what they do.
It's just oppressor and oppressed.
And so you combine that with the fact that they hate the basis of our country, the Constitution, and they want to subvert it.
They want us to be different.
Now, you say, especially when they see what happens in Europe, the left here today thinks Europe is better than the United States.
Europe of today.
They think that's a good thing.
They would rather us look like the UK.
Why?
Because that would look less like the United States.
The less we look like the United States you love, the better for the left.
Because patriots are a lot harder to control.
If you erode all traditions, that's why they want to uphold institutions, not traditions.
Because the institutions they can control because the institutions are funded by government.
And that can become basically, not become, it is a propaganda factory, effectively, whether it's education, whether it's, I mean, take it with social welfare programs.
So the less the United States looks like the United States you know and love, that's what the left wants.
So you're saying the same thing.
You're saying, why are they supporting this?
Especially they've seen what's happened in the UK and they're going, hey, why aren't you supporting this?
You see how great the UK is?
That's the answer.
Next chat.
Yeah.
All right.
Next chat from Ashernik.
Question for everyone.
Could Europe becoming more militarized bite us in the ass in the future as Europe continues to become more and more Muslim?
Yeah, I thought about that too.
No, I mean we do want to keep, like, there's also a reason that we want to keep Europe under control.
We think we're so far removed from, you know, world wars.
But again, at this point, we're the ones in the driver's seat, at least with President Trump, right?
They have a while to catch up.
And Europe is in a position where really they still need to appease the United States.
I think it's better if you're looking at an actual alliance than just individual nations, for example, like Germany, because, you know, we've got to keep our eye on them.
So yeah, it could.
That's why it has to come with conditions.
Install a kill switch.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Pretty much.
Kill all of Europe, Josh?
No, a kill switch in the F-35s or whatever we're selling.
Yeah, that's true.
So it's like, oh, Germany's acting up.
Yeah.
Not anymore.
Yeah.
Turn those F-35s down.
Yeah, how hilarious would that have been if like Pearl Harbor, they bought all their planes from us and just in the middle of the ocean and like, oh, no!
We see you.
Oh, that's why they call it Osero.
Oh, my gosh.
All right, next chat.
All right, next chat from Amanda DeNice One.
Question for the crew.
So far, Trump is doing a great job, but will we ever see his original campaign promise to drain the swamp?
He's been trying.
Sometimes you can drain something, not fully, you know.
I mean, Pete Exeth going in and making cutbacks and reforms at the Pentagon, going, you guys are out getting rid of DEI, affirmative action, that kind of stuff.
I mean, bringing in Doge, you know, the big, beautiful bill, as far as getting illegals off of, well, RFK, I mean, RFK, Social Security, the reform that we're looking at, cutting the IRS, a bunch of what were going to be new hires that I Think hadn't been implemented.
Has he done it fully?
No.
Has he done it more than any other president that I can think of?
Yeah, especially Trump termed two.
I mean, you can't drain Congress.
There's things you can't control.
So, no, not fully, but you know.
Well, this is a process, too.
You can drain some of it.
It's like a pool that's overfilled.
Yeah.
If you get it back to a reasonable level, you might be able to swim.
My expectation for President Trump was not that he was going to come in and solve every single problem that this government has, that he was going to make significant headway and start charting us on a course towards correcting these issues.
In the things that he can accomplish, yes, we expect him to be able to secure the border.
We expect to start doing the deportations.
We expect to have him start doing policy that will actually make the economy do better for the long run, not just being stimulated by the U.S. government constantly throwing money at these issues.
Those are the kinds of things we knew he could do immediately.
Appointing certain people.
And listen, we've had criticism for certain agencies.
They're the ones that are supposed to go in and kind of clean those agencies up.
He's appointing the right people, but they're not all doing the same kind of good work.
We'll see.
Yeah, I'll tell you this.
Bernie Sanders wasn't all wrong when he was talking with Joe Rogan.
He said, you know, no one's going to campaign that I'm going to cut Social Security that goes to campaign.
Sure.
Now, he's not cutting Medicaid or Social Security.
I think that there need to be dramatic reforms because Social Security is insolvent.
But it is true.
No one on the left or the right wanted to touch it.
And I don't mean cut people who need it.
I mean even reform it and get to the fraud and abuse.
No one did.
No one even tried.
No one wanted to.
Matter of fact, yeah, because they said about Minra, he wants to cut your Medicare, Social Security.
He was like, what?
No, I don't.
I want more Medicare, because that was a huge voting base for the right.
That's shifting a little bit.
So for Donald Trump to go in and be the first administration to say all illegals, gone.
And you know what?
If you are a young, able-bodied, childless American who refuses to work, gone.
That is the biggest reform of any of these programs that we have seen in our lifetime.
So is it perfect?
No.
Is it the biggest we've ever seen?
Yes.
What qualifies as draining the swamp?
Does it have to be completely drained?
I don't know that anyone is ever going to be able to completely do that.
But I'll take the biggest accomplishments if this gets passed of our lifetime.
I'll still take that and say, okay, that's a promise delivered because no one else even attempted it.
For me, this is going to be the last chat I take.
And then Jill's going to take over because I have to go take care of some business.
Take a chat.
Let's go.
One more chat.
Okay, sorry.
I thought you said that was going to be the last chat.
I said I'll take one more.
Real quick, isn't it?
Yes.
Just a quick follow-up.
Yesterday, the research sent this.
Yesterday, Carmel Anthony did file an indigent packet, which basically too poor to lack basic necessities.
Doesn't mean he's going to get it approved.
Yeah, indigent, sure.
I thought you were saying that he was huffing gas.
Yeah, sure.
It must be Rama.
Rama's package.
Yes.
Next chat then from DJ9669.
Okay.
Question for Stephen and the crew.
How to avoid all the insinuation of people being racist when the people insinuating it are actually racist people?
And how do you let them know that they are the racist assets?
First off, apologize for nothing.
If you know that you're not racist in your heart, and by that I mean you actually believe that people are inferior because of the color of their skin, that's it.
Don't make apologies for it.
And noticing actual data trends like crime statistics is not racist.
Noticing the trends, for example, in fatherless households in the black community is not only the opposite of racist, it's the only way to actually solve the problem.
So obviously it's not race that's the problem.
There's not the problem going on in that community.
What is it?
We need to find the solution.
Right.
Exactly.
So I just always ask them, very effectively, ask them why.
So usually they're presenting something that X group can't do this and they need help.
And you go, oh, why?
So they say, well, X group can't get ahead, and so they do need help in affirmative action.
Let's just use that.
Black people can't get ahead, and so they do need affirmative action to get into college.
Why?
They might go, and you might need to be able to counter some arguments that will go, because of historicals.
You go, okay, but why in 2025?
Why do you think, let me be specific, why do you think black people can't get into good colleges?
Why do you think they go, well, because of this, well, why do you think they get lower SAT scores?
Why do you think their graduation rates are so much lower?
And here's the thing.
You may not need to or you may not be capable of having all the answers.
I can give you those answers as to why.
I mean, for example, they're going to black schools, they get more public funding than most white schools.
So you can't say it's a lack of funding.
If they say that, you can cut them off at the pass.
They get lower SAT scores.
You can't say there's any systemic discrimination that prevents them from getting decent SAT scores.
And if they try and take it to public schools, well, it's not because they're underfunded anyway, because they're actually more funded.
But let's say that you don't have any of that.
You let them walk down the trail.
And then I guarantee you at some point, you will have a totality that you can take into account and go, okay, so black people cannot get higher SAT scores and can't get into good colleges and can't avoid committing these crimes.
Your answer to all these is because of a group of people that isn't the black community.
Do I have that right?
Let me ask you, what is it that, since you talk about the community, what is it that they are responsible for?
You can do the same thing with illegal immigrants.
You can do the same thing with the Islamic community.
Why?
Well, why?
Why global terrorism?
Why is virtually all of it?
Why?
Well, why do you think 158 million Muslims support violence against infidels?
Well, that's a bastardization of the text.
Okay.
But why do you think 150-something million Muslims across the globe believe it?
Why?
And eventually they do have to, it does lead back to, they're going to hear it and realize how dumb it sounds coming out of their mouth.
Or they may not, in which case you just move on.
If they go, well, actually, and they're vehemently arguing, like, actually, it's because of white people.
And actually, it's because of Christian indoctrination.
And actually, it's because of, if they really, but often you can see the wheel start turning, and they go like, well, that's because of Christian the Crusades, and that's why 158 million Muslims today support it.
Why do you think that is?
They are arguing for inferiority.
Here's the difference.
We are arguing when we are talking about issues that do revolve around race, because that is a thing.
It's a real thing.
And different communities are definitely affected differently.
And you can see different statistical trends.
So I'm not going to say that I'm colorblind, right?
And we are arguing, well, hold on a second.
Maybe there is a reason.
Maybe there's a catalyst for this.
For example, if you go to the black community and fatherless households and you go back to the Model Cities program and you go back to Lyndon Johnson, you go this was encouraged and baby mamas and the welfare reform.
They are arguing, if they have to discount all of that and blame someone else, ultimately they are arguing that a race or a class of people are inferior, if only in that they have been duped by white people, have been duped by Judeo-Christians,
and the reverse isn't true, which would have to, it would necessarily be based, be predicated on the idea that some way, somehow, if there aren't any other contributing variables or they won't accept it, then you're just saying they're inferior.
And you tell them that you don't believe that.
And you don't need to apologize for it.
Because I don't believe that any people, any race, any level of melanin makes someone superior or inferior.
I believe that Africa, every single nation there on that continent, is inferior to the United States.
Now, I believe that because of the systems that they've had in place, the values that they've had in place, the cradle of civilization is still basically just a cradle.
I believe that the entire nation of India as a whole is inferior to the United States.
Why?
Because 630 million people still shit in the streets.
Do I think it's because they're brown?
No.
Do I think in some cases IQ factors into it?
Yeah.
I also think that nutrition factors into IQ from countries that are very poor, but at a certain point, you do have to say it's 2025 there too.
And are you attributing this to race or is there something else here?
Is there a reason that the net result is still worse for this community, despite getting a leg up from the community who for some reason has seemed to figure it out?
Is there a reason for that?
And if they can't give you a reason as far as policy, if they can't give you a reason as far as values, and they'll avoid that, then you come back to the same place.
They believe that races of people are inferior, and that's where they come in with their white savior complex.
I don't believe it.
So I don't feel guilty.
I'll tell you who's really, really white, so this is uncomfortable.
Toss to him, Gerald.
I'll see you guys tomorrow.
I think I'm just going to stay here.
Stay in my chair.
Fine.
But we did the Korean thing.
So you can just come to me.
No, get with you.
Stop it.
Would you stop it?
Stop it.
That's fine.
Get away.
Get away.
Just try to put that stuff.
It's this hand sanitizer in my eye.
Also, you know, just to kind of piggyback off of that, why have Asians been successful in this country?
You think they sat around just going, oh man, these guys are being really racist towards us and discriminatory?
Or did they find a way?
Culturally, did something within their culture tell them, hey, don't worry about the situation that you're fight against it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But don't make that the primary focus because you're just going to sit there and shake your fist at the man for a while.
And maybe that's going to take a long time for it to be resolved.
How about we find a way to become successful?
How about we start businesses?
And how about we tell our community what to do to be successful?
And I think that's what the black community right now really, really, really needs.
They need leaders telling them to knock off the foolishness.
And here's the way to be successful.
Even if granted, the systemic racism that you claim exists even in 2025 today, let's just grant that it's there.
This would be a better way of dealing with it than just constantly saying we have to change this.
It's not helping your community.
It really is not.
And it's a very, very, very sad to see.
So next chat.
All right.
Next chat from that fine fellow.
Quest for crew.
At what point will Disney have to pivot and start writing white male heroes again?
When they've lost everything or when the revenue from good stories starts rivaling Soros money?
I don't think they had to start writing white heroes again so simply as that.
I think they just have to come up with more original.
The problem isn't that it's not white people.
To me, I mean, maybe it is different to you.
The problem to me is that they keep changing things to fit a certain narrative when there was already a story to begin with.
Yeah.
I've said this for a while.
Like, why can't there be, you know, brand new stories with black superheroes or Hispanic superheroes?
Like, that sounds cool to me.
I mean, just stop pushing an agenda, too.
Like, I think that's probably the biggest thing that I'm looking for in a movie is just don't push agendas on me.
It really, because when you start pushing an agenda, then it's starting to be in the script.
It's in the dialogue of the characters.
And it's like.
Contrived.
Well, this, yeah, you can feel it.
You can feel it being contrived.
You can, like, this isn't a natural conversation.
It feels like having this episode went out of its way to make a point that I hear every five minutes all the time that I don't see in my real life.
And I'd rather you guys just kick someone's ass.
Yes.
I'd rather it just be somebody's committing a crime and you're kicking their ass and saving the city or something.
Legacy Disney prided itself on storytelling and they traded that out for politics and a message.
Yeah.
And that's exactly what it is.
You know, things like Black Panther did amazingly well because that was an established character.
Yeah.
And they stayed true to that character.
They've forgotten how to do that.
Yeah.
And I don't know that they'll ever make a full correction on that.
I think money does eventually talk, but I think you've got an organization that has prided itself in really just trying to push these agendas that society doesn't really want.
And they're doing a bad job at storytelling as well.
Even with the agendas in it, it's like, these are just a lot of really bad stories.
I think the comic books did a good job at that, like as comic books.
I didn't read them all and stuff, but I know a lot of the stories.
And one series that did really well with this, with the race, I guess you call it race swapping, was Spider-Man, because there's a bunch of different Spider-Mans out there.
And Miles Morales is an awesome Spider-Man character.
It's an awesome story.
And they didn't have to change Spider-Man.
He was a different Spider-Man.
He met up with Peter Parker.
He had a different spider bite him.
Peter Parker trained him a little bit in these animated series.
Yeah.
And it was a whole different thing.
It was a different universe.
I thought that was really cool.
They didn't have to change things up and make it different.
They just told a different version of Spider-Man.
I think that's cool.
Sam Jackson is Nick Fury.
That's all the MCU ever knew.
I don't want a white Dr. Was Dr. Fury.
Nick Fury.
I don't want a white Nick Fury.
I don't want, you know, it's like a white Black Panther.
Yeah, he was a badass character.
I want him to stay.
Did they ever make it about him being black?
No.
No, exactly.
They just stayed to the story.
And him being black was a side characteristic.
Yeah, so maybe you'll see some changes because Prophet does motivate, but it takes time.
And so one of the reasons we think that the Lionheart stuff is so bad is because of when it was actually shot.
Wasn't it shot in 2020, what was it, 22 or something like that?
Reshoots took place in 23 or 24.
And they took place in 24.
Iron Heart, what did I say?
There's Iron Heart?
Oh, I said Lion Heart.
That's how much I care about this crap.
Can't even get the name right.
But they were shooting it previously, and I think this is them kind of cleaning it up as much as they can and just putting it out there and saying, let's just take our lumps.
You know, like I didn't see a huge push for this.
I mean, I'm sure there was some push, but it's not a story that I'm just really all that interested in anymore because I know what they're doing at this point.
I'm like, okay, I get it.
I get it.
It sucks.
You guys are just making crap now.
And some of these were crap to begin with, but the stories were a lot more fun earlier on because it was true to the stories that we all knew.
Or if you're going to make a news story, that's great too.
And I think that's it.
It'd be fascinating, wouldn't it?
Wouldn't that be great?
Yeah, and it's not like the, oh, I don't see enough white care.
That's not it.
No.
And I get that too.
People saying, oh, it's pissing me off that all these things are being replaced.
And it's like, oh, the left will go, well, now you see.
It's because you're not being represented on the screen.
So now you see.
No.
What we feel.
I don't care if I'm represented on the screen.
You know how I know that?
Because back in the 90s when I was going to high school, I could care less if it was all black people on the scene.
Yeah, exactly.
I did not care what song was sung by who.
If it was a good song, I liked it.
If it's a good TV show, I liked it as a good movie.
I liked it.
Will Smith, the Huxables, all these things.
I almost wish we could go back to that kind of thinking.
Because for us, and I grew up in a very, very lower middle class, mixed area.
So it's not like I had some white privileged school I was at.
I was in a place where it could have absolutely been a throwdown between the blacks, Hispanics, and the whites.
And the Asians were just the really smart people that already screwed up all the curves for us in the classes.
Everybody didn't care.
Nobody cared.
Yeah, but with these Marvel things, it's like they got to have all these different races and stuff, and that's fine representing culture.
I get that.
Little kids want to look up.
There's little Muslim kids want to see a Muslim hero, little Muslim girls, and there was the one with the little Miss Marvel, I think, or what is it?
Kamala Khan.
Kamala Khan, yeah.
I can't remember what her name was, but Miss Marvel.
Yeah, so yeah, I think that's cool, but what's annoying is when you're watching this and part of her backstory is white people did this to me.
Right.
Or America made me part of my struggle and my backstory is white people, men, or America or whatever.
If you reverse the roles, if it was like, you know, Captain America, his backstory was, you know, back in the 30s when he was a kid in New York City, he got beat up by black kids.
He'd be like, whoa, dude.
That's inappropriate.
Yeah, a little bit.
That's kind of how they go.
Next chat.
All right.
Next chat from M. Huagen.
Question for the crew.
With 4th of July coming up, I'm wondering if you have any good book or documentaries recommendations for deep diving into actual unbiased history.
I think one of the authors that I've read, McCullough?
Sounds right.
I'll look it up here in just a second before we go.
But I would actually encourage everybody to do some deep diving into the history of the American Revolution, what it was like at the time, because I think we've glossed over it so much because we're so far removed from it.
And right, I understand that.
I get it.
But to really fully have an appreciation for the freedoms that we have today, it's very helpful to understand what they put on the line and how that can kind of translate to today and how we feel about what we have and whether we're willing to, you know, figuratively.
And, you know, at some point, if somebody ever tried to invade and take over this country, you actually physically have to fight for it.
And that could be theoretically an ideology as well.
Again, not saying anybody take to the streets or anything like that, but I'm saying at some point, if people are trying to make this country something that it is not and you've exhausted all other options, that's what these guys did.
They basically just said, hey, screw it.
This could end up with all of, like, think about this.
Like, you know, I have three kids right now.
And I would be in a position where I would have to put my family at risk to go and fight people that may be in my neighborhood that are British.
And that's the kind of context and the setting that you're in when victory is far from guaranteed.
In fact, it's almost likely, more likely that you'll be defeated in this battle.
And just what that would take to get you that motivated to fight that hard to have the kind of freedoms that we have today.
And then honestly, how close to even after winning the war, we weren't able to come together as states.
That's a really interesting thing to dive into.
And you don't have to go like way deep into it, but there are several books that talk about some of the early battles in the Revolutionary War.
There you go, David McCullough.
That's a really good, really, I think it's a fairly long book, maybe about four or five hundred pages, maybe 600 pages.
Really, really good.
It's easy to read.
He does a good job of writing it, writes several other books, but it helps really kind of, and this is something that I got into for a little while because I kind of get on themes.
And World War I was a theme for a while because I didn't know as much about that as I did World War II.
And then this was like, I was like, man, I really got to understand this.
Like, how did we actually, like, that's just, it just blew my mind that these guys were willing to sacrifice so much.
And when they wrote that they were putting their lives, their sacred honor, and their treasure, I believe, I'm mixing that up a little bit.
I know it's those three elements.
When they wrote that, it's like, man, like, you're right.
You put everything on the line for this.
So I definitely think it's a good time to study it.
It gives you a greater appreciation for what we have, and it makes you want to fight harder to keep it.
And I think that's always going to be a good thing.
Or you can find my collection of encyclopedias at jfirestein.com.
I sell them for just the low price of $299 a set.
Yeah.
Nice.
Give me knowledge of the world to your library.
All right.
We'll do a couple more chats.
All right.
Next chat.
A couple after.
One more and then one more and then maybe one more and we'll see.
All right.
A Couple chats.
Next chat from Carfel.
What do you think about Trump's Nobel Prize nomination?
If Obama can get one for being black, I'd say Trump's earned one.
Please admonish Gerald for Tim.
Get well soon.
I didn't.
I mean, Tim, whatever.
I hope he feels better.
Obama didn't get a peace prize for being black.
No.
Though there is also no discernible reason why Obama got a peace prize.
I think it was healing the races by being black.
So maybe you're right.
I should be admonished.
Why did you have that so quickly at the ready?
It takes you forever to find the fact that people need to join up Rumble Premium that keeps the lights on, but the admonish button.
No, no, that one's ready to go.
Give the people what they want.
Sorry about that.
What?
I'm starting to like Ken more.
And that pains me to say.
So, no, I think.
I like that Pakistan nominated for Trump for a peace prize.
I think that entire thing is just stupid.
It's a pageant.
It doesn't matter.
It's not anymore.
I don't know that I ever cared about it.
I think it used to mean something, but now it's like a popularity contest.
Like you said, Josh, a pageant.
And I don't think it means anything.
And Pakistan will be pissed off at us for something tomorrow.
You know, probably their neighbor pooping in the streets.
Not kind of fun, but whatever.
I don't care.
I don't care about it.
Next chat.
Yeah, well, just to clarify.
Next chat.
All right, cool.
Well, whatever.
Just giving clarify.
He got the peace prize for quoting black extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples.
Oh, really?
Which one specifically?
Leave it up there.
Are they Syrian, Libyan, Somalian?
Okay, so when, okay, do me a favor.
So this is really interesting.
So he has been in power for less than eight months when he was awarded the peace prize for 2009.
When did he get nominated?
Award versus nominate is a different thing.
I believe the timeline was like he got elected and got nominated for a peace prize.
It was like, you've done nothing yet.
That was a whole joke.
Like eight months in and you could do something.
It's when he was awarded the peace prize.
I don't think that had anything to do with anything he actually accomplished.
But whatever.
We're past Obama.
I get to forget about Obama.
Next chat.
And we'll take one more after this and we'll be done.
All right.
Next chat from RD Pal.
Question for the crew.
When can the government declare Democrats communists and maybe replace them with the Libertarian Party?
Well, that would be stupid.
No offense.
I'm not a huge fan of libertarianism.
It fails very, very quickly to really kind of handle a lot of complex issues.
And it's a lot of myopic thinking that I think doesn't work very practically.
And I think that's been proven in debates over and over and over again.
Even amongst libertarians, when they're debating each other, Dave Smith debated another guy, and he's supposed to be a pretty prominent libertarian thinker.
And he came up with this argument for open borders as a libertarian idea.
And it was really kind of hard for Dave to even combat that.
Now, he used some really bad logic and some of the arguments he made within that that Dave correctly pointed out.
And so Dave did a good job there.
But otherwise, it was like, how do you, as a libertarian, how do you say no to open borders?
Like, there's a lot of things that don't really make sense.
So I don't want to do that.
But I also don't want to just make all Democrats, you know, communists and do that.
Like, I want to be focused in how we do this.
We have really, really, really good ideas.
Take that to the American people.
Do, you know what?
Learn from the race in New York.
Learn what that guy did that worked.
Because there are some things that he did that spoke to people's problems on an everyday kind of basis.
And yes, he promised a lot of free stuff and no, we're not going to do that.
But take some of the nuggets of truth like, hey, speaking to the issues of the people like President Trump did, talking about the economy, talking about immigration, talking about men and women's sports.
Those are things that really resonate with people.
Let's focus a lot on that and make sure that we deliver on the promises that we make to the voters.
So that would be more, because I just, I don't like this, they're commies.
We're just going to get rid of them kind of thinking.
Not because it's not necessarily true in some cases, but I don't think it works.
I don't think practically it's something that can be executed on.
And that's not something that I think we ought to be proposing and libertarians.
I'm just not Democrats and you're not communists, but I just don't understand how you think.
Last chat.
All right.
Final chat from A Plastic Fork.
Question for the crew.
Why is it a big deal for NATO countries to offer health care and higher education, but it's fine for Israel to offer that to their citizens while getting U.S. military protection?
Wait.
Why is it a big deal for NATO countries to offer health care and higher education, but it's fine for Israel to offer that in my citizens?
No, I think it's a good point.
It's basically we're subsidizing your military, right?
But Israel has actually had to fight a lot of its own battles as well, right?
I don't know if you're familiar with the history of Israel, but they fought a lot of their own battles.
Yes, we are the only reason that they still exist as a nation, and we should be thanked as such for that.
I got it.
But at the same time, they do have a fairly decent military, right?
And they have a seriousness and a focus on the military that a lot of these other European countries don't.
You can say maybe size-wise or anything else.
You can say the civil service requirement.
Yep.
They have that.
I mean, it's not the only reason.
I'm just adding to your point.
No, they do have a civil service requirement for everybody over the age of 18.
Yeah.
Even though.
Yeah.
So South Korea has it too.
There's quite a few countries that have it.
I don't know all of them off the top of my head, but I don't think it's necessarily a great thing.
But if we're going to talk about the difference between why we, you know, are okay with, you know, socialized programs in Israel when we're not okay with them in Europe, well, maybe it's because, you know, Europeans don't want to serve their country and Israelis do.
Yeah, well, and on top of that, one of the points was I don't care if you want to have socialized programs in your country, but then don't enter into an agreement where you say you're going to spend X dollars or X percent of your GDP on your own defense and then don't do it.
I think it was more about people not living up to their agreements.
We know Israel's spending on their defense.
Yeah, they're definitely spending on the defense.
I also think we should be giving them a lot less money than we do.
Maybe even down to zero with every single country in that region.
See my bit of Pissed off Spicy Rant yesterday about that.
They are not thankful enough, but guess what?
