Louder with Crowder - Trump's Bombshell Easter Message: This is Madman Theory Aired: 2026-04-06 Duration: 01:16:10 === March 23rd Live Stream (14:56) === [00:02:44] You said I should do it. [00:02:46] It's pounded in my brain often enough, asleep and awake, in the drowsy fantasy moment of every lonely dawn. [00:02:54] Oh, come on, what's your answer? [00:02:58] You're taking my breath away. [00:03:00] What's your answer? [00:03:15] It tells you a moment. [00:03:20] It tells you a moment. [00:03:39] Would you shut up if I tell my mom and she tells your mom it? [00:03:59] academy we would follow every toast with a song welcome [00:10:49] um Not going to do a rundown or talk about the lineup today because we do have an update that's pretty significant. [00:10:57] This Friday, 7 p.m. Eastern, I, as I've told you, scheduled to debate Professor Jonathan Zimmerman, professor of history for 20-something odd years, author of multiple books. [00:11:08] He was on the show last week, and that was going to be at the Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. [00:11:15] There at, well, I was about to say UPenn. [00:11:19] Yes, it is UPenn. [00:11:20] I was about to say Pennsylvania State. [00:11:22] Gerald, is you Penn? [00:11:23] Yeah. [00:11:24] I'm getting turned around because there have been some updates here. [00:11:26] So that's what I told you. [00:11:30] You know, this has been 10 years in the making. [00:11:31] This has been 10 schools unofficially called out with $10,000. [00:11:37] Not up for grabs, just a gift, because Change My Mind was always designed to highlight the failures of professors. [00:11:44] We finally found a willing participant after people came forward with absurd terms, like at Harvard and other schools. [00:11:49] We walked you through that last week. [00:11:52] Discussion was going to be about free speech, where it stands, and who is actively trying to kill it. [00:12:01] Obviously, at the risk of showing my cards here, I think that if you want to preserve freedom of speech, you have to fight the institutionalized left. [00:12:09] Because part of my opening statements, which were not fully formed, is that wherever the left achieves power, free speech dies. [00:12:21] Wherever freedom of speech thrives, the left dies. [00:12:25] And so that's why they try to control the playing field. [00:12:29] They try to control the narrative. [00:12:30] We saw that with the Department of Misinformation. [00:12:32] We've seen that on big tech platforms, whether it's Google, YouTube, Facebook, Meta, TikTok, Twitter before it became X. Take your pick. [00:12:41] And then we just ran into some hiccups that proved my point. [00:12:45] So you can still go to loudorthcryder.com slash tickets. [00:12:48] I'm not changing my approach, but those at UPenn seemingly are. [00:12:55] March 10th, to give you an idea, I want to go back in time, but let me just kind of give you the lead. [00:13:03] They've now told us that they will revoke our ability to live stream the event. [00:13:09] So we can do it. [00:13:10] We can put up the $10,000. [00:13:11] We can put up the many, many tens of thousands of dollars to make this event happen, paying for security costs, venue fees, et cetera. [00:13:18] We just can't live stream it. [00:13:22] So, I'm telling you right now, and this is the first, I have not discussed anything with the school myself. [00:13:28] This has been my team, people who are in charge of events. [00:13:31] We plan to go to UPenn Friday, April 10th, and live stream. [00:13:35] That is what we will do. [00:13:38] That is what the Louder with Crowder team here is going to do. [00:13:41] It comes as a shock to no one that the largest daily live stream out there with a right leaning perspective would be live streaming a debate for which we are fronting tens of thousands of dollars. [00:13:54] The reasoning as to why we can't live stream, well, your guess is as good as mine, but it seems like quite a few hurdles being put up. [00:14:02] So we'll be asking all of you to apply some pressure here because these are not, you let me know. [00:14:07] I don't think these are big asks. [00:14:08] We'll show up, we'll pay, your turf, your topic, your terms. [00:14:13] Great. [00:14:15] What's the problem? [00:14:17] And for people saying, well, hold on, there's some confusion, or no, I'll give you some receipts here. [00:14:23] March 10th. [00:14:24] The Annenberg Center Director of Events, who's been helpful, by the way, as I understand it, this person has to do the work of the administration. [00:14:32] Ms. Jameson emailed our team a cost estimate that clearly accounted for live streaming costs, fronted by us. [00:14:42] They were very adamant about this. [00:14:44] Here it is bring up the overlay video slash live stream slash projection. [00:14:48] Company provides their own live stream recording equipment. [00:14:52] So the negotiation was going to be over specifics like the costs for this, how we set up. [00:14:59] But it was very clearly confirmation that we were going to be live streaming. [00:15:03] We've always maintained that. [00:15:05] And in case people are wondering if this wasn't clear, well, this was actually the day after a Zoom call took place with Lane the Brain here and the team over there, where live streaming was discussed, acknowledged, and of course, here you go. [00:15:22] Ideally, if the tech allows for it, streamed live. [00:15:26] That way, nobody can be accused of editing out of context or we're just. [00:15:31] Clipping Zimmerman to look stupid, or he's clipping Steven to look like an idiot. [00:15:34] That's not the goal of this. [00:15:36] So, we want this up in full, in real time, so people know that they're getting the conversation that they signed up for. [00:15:43] And again, after the fact, this will live in perpetuity on our sites. [00:15:49] But Mr. Zimmerman is also allowed to upload them to his own personal sites as well. [00:15:54] He will be provided with the full raw file. [00:15:57] So, you've got your own streaming company? [00:15:59] Yes. [00:16:01] PenLiveArts? [00:16:01] I can, yeah. [00:16:03] Just in general, I'll get you. [00:16:07] The internet is private, but I can get you a private IP address for them. [00:16:13] Great. [00:16:16] Logistics, follow up, you guys cover the costs. [00:16:19] Great. [00:16:21] We've announced this to you. [00:16:24] Many hundreds of you have already reserved your tickets. [00:16:27] Here's where I think the wrinkles came in and kind of proves the basis of my opening statements. [00:16:34] There was a hit piece at the Daily Pennsylvanian March 23rd. [00:16:38] Multiple PLA staff, and PLA Gerald is PenLive Arts staff members, raised concerns about working the event in interviews with the DP and were granted anonymity due to. [00:16:49] Fear of retribution. [00:16:50] One staffer told the DP that they worried that the debate could perpetuate, quote, hate, bigotry, and ignorance into the world and into University of Pennsylvania students. [00:17:01] Keep in mind, this is the school that sent, I believe, 16 girls who came forward when they discussed penis in their locker room making them uncomfortable. [00:17:09] They were sent to the, I believe, LGBTQ Center for counseling. [00:17:14] And as I understand it, no investigation was run. [00:17:17] We wouldn't want to put out any fear. [00:17:20] Or hate or bigotry. [00:17:21] So that piece went out March 23rd, I believe the same day that the venue then messaged us the following The university is aware that this will be recorded. [00:17:30] They typically ask that events not be live streamed, but played at a later time or date. === Venue Security Demands (12:29) === [00:17:40] That's exactly what we didn't want to do. [00:17:43] I think anyone who's been here for a long time and has followed Change My Mind going back a decade, I mean, you know that the reason for this was because people will sometimes say, well, Change My Minds, that's tougher to live stream because we're on location and we don't really know. [00:17:56] You've never heard anyone complain about being taken out of context. [00:17:59] It's okay, we'll do this live on the home turf of whoever agrees to do it with their terms. [00:18:05] We'll front the costs and then we'll put up $10,000 to do it. [00:18:09] Nothing up our sleeves. [00:18:11] People say, why don't you go and have these conversations with someone qualified? [00:18:15] We went to the most qualified person we could find who was willing to take part at the most qualified institution in as even of a playing field as a conservative could possibly ask for. [00:18:30] Well, then, finally, April 3rd, going into Easter weekend, we received this letter. [00:18:38] Thank you so much for your patience while the university reviewed the language in our facility use agreement. [00:18:43] Kindly see their updated version. [00:18:44] Based on the revised language, we will not be able to permit the sale of merchandise or live streaming this event. [00:18:52] Now, I don't know why, and I know that some of you will say, well, why don't you just go and then upload it later in the week? [00:18:56] If you guys look at the terms that were laid out from Harvard professors and the right to retroactively remove consent, I've been down this road with schools in the past. [00:19:07] If you capitulate now, how much you want to bet if this doesn't go very well, it's going to be made difficult to upload in its entirety without edits. [00:19:17] Because there are vested interests in making sure that the school or the perspective, which of course, over which there is no doubt, is distinctly left, probably wouldn't be so flattering. [00:19:31] It's going to be difficult. [00:19:33] So we are not going to acquiesce or capitulate here now and say, well, we'll come out there and we'll work it out. [00:19:37] Because there's something else, too. [00:19:38] I don't know if you guys know this, but security is kind of a big deal. [00:19:43] It's always been a big deal for us, and especially post Charlie Kirk. [00:19:47] And especially when you see these kinds of articles going out, the Daily Pennsylvanian, we're okay fronting the costs for security. [00:19:54] We're many, many tens of thousands of dollars in to try and make this event happen. [00:19:58] By the way, your support, of course, joining up Mug Club Rumble Premium. [00:20:02] That's what allows all of this to happen. [00:20:04] We don't have any big nonprofits, we don't have any big donors. [00:20:07] We're funded by viewers like you. [00:20:09] Well, the security issue is another one that would seem as though this should be straightforward. [00:20:13] I don't have an answer as to why they're changing it around. [00:20:18] I just know that they are. [00:20:19] So, our team did a full security walkthrough on April 1st. [00:20:25] The venue would not allow us to complete many of our standard security protocols. [00:20:31] We have kind of some standards that we go through to make sure things are secure. [00:20:34] They wouldn't allow us to do that. [00:20:36] They're demanding that we use their security. [00:20:39] Now, we would bring our security anyway, but we still have not received a cost estimate the week of. [00:20:47] We've asked for it, we've not received it. [00:20:52] So, if you go out to a school where the only thing you're asking to do is what you do every day, which is live stream a fully unedited debate, which, by the way, I should lose. [00:21:02] PhD, multiple time author, professor for decades, college dropout who's outpunted his coverage. [00:21:12] It should be pretty simple to do. [00:21:13] The only request we've made is that we're able to do what we do every day, live, unedited, so that people can see these conversations as transparently as possible. [00:21:21] You know, the kinds of conversations that never take place on campus. [00:21:28] You have professors who are intimidated into silence. [00:21:31] My opponent, Professor Zimmerman, talked about this as it related to DEI, that he was surprised that 40% of professors didn't support race or gender based admissions or hiring. [00:21:43] And he was shocked that they didn't speak out at all. [00:21:46] Well, if that's taking place, how do you think the students feel? [00:21:51] If this is the environment, how do you think students on campus feel who can't front tens of thousands of dollars and haven't built up the infrastructure for security? [00:22:03] We're starting to get the picture as to why intellectual diversity and freedom of speech does not exist on campus. [00:22:10] An agreement, a call, a confirmation, a big old Ed McMahon check, and we'll cover all the costs. [00:22:19] Name the time and place. [00:22:20] We'll make that walk. [00:22:23] Well, then it changed. [00:22:26] And if the place is going to be secure, that's a will they, won't they, we don't know, maybe so. [00:22:32] And the one thing that we do here, and the whole purpose of this, will not be permitted. [00:22:36] So, if we show up, we can't live stream, and we don't have an estimate for security, what do you think happens if we want to upload it the following week, Monday or Tuesday? [00:22:45] Oh, then that security estimate could come in, couldn't it? [00:22:48] Could be half a million dollars, could be more. [00:22:52] Maybe these people are acting in good faith, and maybe there's a miscommunication going on, and maybe obviously they believe in freedom of speech, and they're happy to take the check, and we can simply have a productive conversation and debate. [00:23:03] April 10th, 7 p.m. You can get your tickets at lauderwithcrowder.com slash tickets at UPenn. [00:23:10] Maybe that's all it is. [00:23:11] And we're hoping that because we're still going to the campus to stream live. [00:23:16] UPenn, if you are watching or listening, there is no world in which we go. [00:23:18] We don't stream this live. [00:23:21] Period. [00:23:22] With no edits. [00:23:24] With no suggestions afterward. [00:23:27] That's what we were paying for. [00:23:29] That's what you, the viewer, was planning on. [00:23:32] It's a long time coming. [00:23:34] And that's exactly what we plan to do. [00:23:36] If there can be any justification, rationalization, which we have not received as to why this shouldn't take place, as to why these new changing terms are required, then you can let us know and the public know. [00:23:51] But this has been going on for too long, dragging your feet for too long. [00:23:55] This is not complicated. [00:23:56] It's straightforward. [00:23:58] That's what we've told people, and you have told students we are going to do. [00:24:02] And they have reserved their tickets. [00:24:04] Don't try and change the game just because it may not come across that well. [00:24:09] Final thing that I would tell you is if I had to guess, I'd be willing to bet some people aren't happy about this event, and I'd be willing to bet there'd probably be some disruptive protesters, which, to the best of my understanding, their security would not remove as per their protocol. [00:24:22] How much you want to bet they come from the left? [00:24:25] How much you want to bet that doesn't reflect well in the school? [00:24:27] How much you want to bet that people who show up to hear an actual productive discussion, as has taken place at every Change My Mind going back a decade, those on the right, will be civil, respectful, rational, and the opposition won't? [00:24:42] And those optics aren't great for an esteemed institution like UPenn. [00:24:50] So I hope we've been clear. [00:24:53] Tickets are still available online, not many. [00:24:56] We'll be going. [00:24:57] We'll be bringing the check. [00:24:59] We'll be fronting the costs. [00:25:01] Give us the security estimate so we can use whoever you want there along with our security who ensure that I don't get shot. [00:25:10] And we'll be there and we'll live stream this debate. [00:25:13] UPenn, April 10th, 7 p.m. [00:25:16] Right? [00:25:17] You, Penn? [00:25:18] Are we good? [00:25:19] We're good, right? [00:25:24] You've been failed as students. [00:25:26] You've been failed. [00:25:27] It's time to go straight to the top to the people who failed you. [00:25:30] Hey YouTube, what you're about to watch is a new segment we call Change My Mind. [00:25:33] When we started Change My Mind, the more I went on campus, the more I saw the failures of the institutions. [00:25:39] I think you're somewhat parroting from what you've learned from your professors. [00:25:41] Data from CNN and Twitter and professors is wrong. [00:25:45] I want to be really clear about something. [00:25:46] This was never designed to mock, denigrate, or dunk on students who don't know any better. [00:25:54] The failures of the institutions. [00:25:56] Would you be willing to find a professor, any professor here on campus, and help organize some kind of a debate or conversation? [00:26:03] Any professor you pick. [00:26:04] We're actually going to be starting formal debates with professors. [00:26:08] We can have a civil dialogue and maybe get to the root cause as to why you've been failed as students. [00:26:17] He has made this possible, the only one, Professor Jonathan Zimmerman. [00:26:21] I'm a liberal Democrat, and I knew that you were not. [00:26:24] That's true. [00:26:25] And that's precisely why we should talk to each other. [00:26:28] Because that's how I think people learn. [00:26:30] I really do appreciate you accepting. [00:26:33] And by the way, screw you. [00:26:34] Yes, absolutely. [00:26:35] Screw you. [00:26:36] And you're a piece of shit. [00:26:37] Save one again. [00:26:39] Save one again. [00:26:42] April 10th, 7 p.m. at the Amenberg Center for the Performing Arts. [00:26:46] LouderwithCrowder.com slash tickets. [00:26:48] Change my mind. [00:26:49] It's the next chapter. [00:27:27] Hey, welcome, Dan viewers. [00:27:28] Thanks for rating. [00:27:29] Gerald, how the hell are you? [00:27:30] I'm good. [00:27:31] How are you? [00:27:31] You know. [00:27:32] What a good Friday that was. [00:27:34] Yeah. [00:27:36] Ah, these bastards. [00:27:39] There's just no way around it. [00:27:40] It's been going on for a long time. [00:27:42] A long time. [00:27:42] It's like people go, why don't you go to the. [00:27:44] Every time I go to the Change My Minds, there's always a professor there going like this. [00:27:47] You know, we've had many professors try to ban us. [00:27:49] Yeah. [00:27:49] Everyone who agrees to it. [00:27:50] And then you have the administration go, no, no, you can't do it that way. [00:27:53] And last minute. [00:27:53] Last minute, like, hey, by the way, you can't do the thing that you do. [00:27:56] Right. [00:27:57] The thing that allows for no manipulation at all. [00:27:59] Live stream it, let everybody have access to it. [00:28:01] Open conversation, and then they throw on top of it the merch. [00:28:04] I don't care. [00:28:04] But I'm like, wait, what? [00:28:06] So we want you to sell a t shirt? [00:28:08] Yeah, they want to stack the deck. [00:28:09] We want you to be able to absorb all the costs, have no way for your viewers to support you, right? [00:28:13] Because they want to see you live stream this. [00:28:15] And we'll just keep laying out terms and not give you actual costs or estimate because, you know, hey, this is how it works. [00:28:22] And I don't even know if we've said this. [00:28:23] Tickets are free. [00:28:24] We're not making money off of this. [00:28:25] Like, we just want people to be able to go and see this conversation happen. [00:28:28] Yeah. [00:28:28] And they know that too. [00:28:29] Well, people will go, why don't you talk with professors? [00:28:31] Well, we try to. [00:28:32] Why don't you? [00:28:33] Well, yeah, we've had plenty of senators, people on this show, people with whom I disagree. [00:28:37] They go, why don't you go down and do a formal debate? [00:28:39] Okay, great. [00:28:39] They can do it how they want. [00:28:41] We'll pay. [00:28:43] They don't want to do it. [00:28:45] And if this happens, it'll happen in spite of academia. [00:28:49] Do you guys understand? [00:28:50] This is the call. [00:28:52] And then they say, both sides. [00:28:53] No, no, not both sides. [00:28:55] Not both sides. [00:28:56] It's not a thing. [00:28:56] And we actually have a site where you can bring the rundown now. [00:28:59] Is X a right wing echo chamber? [00:29:01] I will tell you, it's definitely right wing because wherever there is freedom of speech, it's It becomes dominated by the right wing. [00:29:06] Why? [00:29:07] For the same reason Fox News has crazy high viewership in comparison to other cable news networks. [00:29:11] Because they're competing with ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, sorry, MSNBC, sorry, MSNBC, CNN, CNBC, the one place where right wing people can go, well, then you end up having more of a dialogue and it ends up doing quite well. [00:29:24] And online, once the right gets a foothold and they're able to make their arguments because the left sucks ass, guess what? [00:29:32] They tend to do better. [00:29:33] So the left sues to ban speech on X. [00:29:37] The right sues. [00:29:38] To allow speech. [00:29:41] We are not the same. [00:29:42] We are not the same. [00:29:44] Also, we'll be talking about President Trump's Easter message on Iran and Europe being silly and Soleimani's nieces. [00:29:50] That's a lot of fun. [00:29:53] Some Persian whores. [00:29:56] They're not really Persian, I guess. [00:29:57] Nieces makes them sound young. [00:29:59] Yeah, they're not that young. [00:30:00] They're not young, but they are whores. [00:30:03] Infidels, at least. [00:30:04] Friday, Saturday. [00:30:06] April 24th, well, in the States, they're whores. [00:30:08] April 24th, 25th. === Lawton Oklahoma Confrontation (02:32) === [00:30:10] Comedy Avenue, Lawton, Oklahoma. [00:30:12] How are you, Mr. Firestein? [00:30:13] Good, good. [00:30:13] And I just got word that there are no professors in Lawton, Oklahoma. [00:30:18] So the shows are happening. [00:30:19] Well, that's good. [00:30:20] Who needs them? [00:30:22] It's the Tehran of Oklahoma. [00:30:23] Yeah, that's exactly right. [00:30:24] That's exactly right. [00:30:26] It's the crown jewel of Oklahoma. [00:30:30] All right. [00:30:31] Let's clear the palette here. [00:30:32] Yeah, let's. [00:30:33] Here's one Cincinnati police officer. [00:30:36] Just remember this when people tell you you don't need a gun, this is who you call. [00:30:41] That's what the police are for. [00:30:42] Here's a Cincinnati police officer. [00:30:44] Who makes a very strong case for you and the Second Amendment? [00:30:52] Oh, he's got him. [00:30:54] Perfect. [00:30:57] Oh, now he can't get away. [00:30:59] Oh, okay. [00:31:02] This guy's not even scared of him. [00:31:05] He's already winded. [00:31:10] The pepper spray. [00:31:11] I see him changing the distance. [00:31:12] Watch. [00:31:12] Where's his taser, man? [00:31:14] And. [00:31:19] He's not even trying now. [00:31:24] Oh, don't fake it. [00:31:26] Come on. [00:31:27] Don't act like you're running now. [00:31:28] You have a car. [00:31:30] Let the horses run. [00:31:33] That's like when you give up on your jog, but a car comes by, so you pick it back up. [00:31:36] Yeah, I'm still. [00:31:41] You see him judge the distance. [00:31:42] He got like halfway down. [00:31:43] He's like, no, not enough room. [00:31:44] I need a little more runway here. [00:31:45] And he keeps running away. [00:31:46] I know. [00:31:46] Well, the good news is, though, with AI, we can actually enhance that. [00:31:49] And we learned that James Carville has been moonlighting. [00:31:52] We have the exclusive Bodycam audio. [00:31:54] Alright, now come here, you old swamp rat. [00:31:58] I'm gonna get you for that one. [00:32:00] Fuck it. [00:32:02] Give me that swim. [00:32:05] There, how does it feel to fall down, you loser beaner? [00:32:07] That's it. [00:32:08] I'm gonna shoot you where the. [00:32:09] Ah, ss. [00:32:11] Stuck. [00:32:12] Cajun and pepper spray for you, ss. [00:32:14] Good enough for the craw, daddy. [00:32:16] Good enough for you. [00:32:17] Ah, ss. [00:32:19] Too fast. [00:32:20] Slow down. [00:32:21] Come back. [00:32:21] My leg is gimple. [00:32:23] Don't forget to breathe. [00:32:24] Two seconds in, five seconds out. [00:32:25] Take this goddamn job. [00:32:27] Defund me. [00:32:29] He's on his goddamn bike again. [00:32:32] That smarmy bastard. [00:32:33] If you rise by Papa Door, I'll get that son of a bitch. [00:32:41] It's real footage. === War Crime Claims (07:07) === [00:32:42] It is. [00:32:43] Two seconds out, five seconds out. [00:32:45] I hope whatever medical intervention, because people now, there's this whole longevity thing where people want to live forever. [00:32:51] Give everything you got, pump it into James Carville. [00:32:54] I want him around forever. [00:32:55] I want to be telling my great. [00:32:57] Grandchildren. [00:32:58] You know, daddy used to watch him when he was your age, and he's still here. [00:33:05] He's the most entertaining guy around. [00:33:06] He's losing his mind. [00:33:08] Yeah, he's gotten especially angry too in his years. [00:33:11] How's it feel to be a piece of shit president? [00:33:14] Because that's what you are. [00:33:15] He just gets pissed when he gets back on the bike. [00:33:17] All right. [00:33:18] Okay. [00:33:20] Speaking of which, some people are trying to say that he's lost his marbles because of some of his posts out there. [00:33:24] I'm not going to lie to you. [00:33:25] I thought this one was funny. [00:33:27] Yeah. [00:33:28] Funny. [00:33:29] I had a good time with it. [00:33:31] So, Easter Sunday, President Trump, most memorable truth possibly of all time, he wrote Tuesday will be Power Plant Day. [00:33:41] Bring your bomb to Power Plant Day. [00:33:47] And bridge day, all wrapped up in one in Iran. [00:33:51] Like we were wondering where. [00:33:54] Oh, they must be opening that Baltimore Bridge again. [00:33:59] Oh, there will be nothing like it. [00:34:01] Open the effing straight, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in hell. [00:34:05] Just watch, praise be to Allah. [00:34:12] Is he trolling? [00:34:13] Sure. [00:34:14] Of course. [00:34:15] You want to tell me that the IRGC doesn't deserve it? [00:34:20] He even changed his profile picture, by the way. [00:34:30] It's like his own personal Wreck It Ralph day. [00:34:34] Look, people are upset about, and I understand. [00:34:37] I also understand that, you know, he's issued some warnings. [00:34:41] I get that. [00:34:42] And I understand that you should really just shoot as opposed to talking before you shoot. [00:34:46] But I also understand, here's what I think is going on. [00:34:48] I don't think that President Trump wants to destroy their infrastructure. [00:34:50] No. [00:34:51] And I think you're dealing with people who have no value for human life. [00:34:54] They don't value the lives of their citizens if. [00:34:57] If they had their perfect world, their citizens who do not support the regime, they'd all be dead. [00:35:02] That's what they would do anyway. [00:35:03] So that's a pretty tough opponent to deal with because you're not actually dealing with a rational actor. [00:35:09] And that brings us to some of the claims that are going on right now. [00:35:12] And again, these claims are often coming from people who said we would be in World War III. [00:35:15] Whether you line up with or against the military operation in Iran, it is important to hold people to the standard that they set. [00:35:22] I said give it three months. [00:35:23] We're at about day 40. [00:35:25] First claim that you'll see right now is that if President Trump follows through with this, it would be a war crime. [00:35:32] Mehdi Hassan wrote this. [00:35:34] I just threw up in my mouth a little. [00:35:37] Trump threatens war crimes, praises Allah on Easter Sunday. [00:35:41] Praise be to Allah, the insane president posted while threatening to blow up Iranian power plants and bridges if he doesn't get his way. [00:35:47] Okay, so here's the truth. [00:35:48] This would not be a war crime. [00:35:51] It's almost like people don't know what war is, they just say stuff. [00:35:54] And people say, I thought you said it wasn't a war. [00:35:57] Okay. [00:35:57] If he doesn't get his way, well, you mean global energy? [00:36:01] Right. [00:36:01] Well, not even just that. [00:36:02] It's like we're at this point, too. [00:36:04] The really important thing with Iran. [00:36:06] You see, guys have to remember the people of Iran and the Iranian diaspora overwhelmingly, I'd wager well over 80%, because in informal polls it's still been over 80%, want these bombs and want this regime taken out. [00:36:21] There's a huge difference between the Iranian regime and the Iranian people. [00:36:25] The Iranian regime has about as much in common with the Persian people of Iran as AOC does with you. [00:36:31] This would not be a war crime. [00:36:34] According to the law of armed conflict, check the references, we make them available every show, 11 a.m. Eastern. [00:36:40] We're always streaming. [00:36:42] Loss of protection of civilian objects must be read together with the basic rule that only military objectives may be attacked. [00:36:47] It follows that when a civilian object is used in such a way that it loses its civilian character and qualifies as a military objective, it is liable to attack. [00:36:56] That's pretty easy to understand. [00:36:57] Yes. [00:36:57] And keep in mind that the Iranian regime, they specifically do try and hide in civilian areas. [00:37:04] That's what they do, just like the terror that they fund, whether it's Hamas, whether it's Hezbollah. [00:37:08] But the other thing is that doesn't really matter to people saying war crime. [00:37:11] Because you had people saying that Donald Trump committed a war crime against the Iranian people when our military blew up the B 1 bridge last week. [00:37:19] That was a supply route for the regime military, their missiles, their drones. [00:37:24] This was almost entirely, depending on who you ask, if not entirely. [00:37:29] So almost entirely to entirely, a military bridge that was used. [00:37:35] It was not used by civilians. [00:37:37] Here's a clip of said military target being destroyed that some people consider a travesty of human rights because. [00:37:44] They don't want the IRGC to be kneecapped. [00:38:02] Now, understand, you may see that and have an opinion on it. [00:38:06] And of course, we all have the right to our opinions, our views. [00:38:09] The Iranian people who are not supportive of the IRGC, that is music to their ears. [00:38:15] It doesn't mean that it's our job to help them or liberate them. [00:38:19] But they hate this regime so much that the estimate is 40,000 of them died in an uprising. [00:38:23] And they ask for help and they still support and welcome these bombs. [00:38:28] So you can say that we shouldn't spend money on it. [00:38:31] And I think there's a very strong case to be made. [00:38:32] And the longer this drags out, then I think it will be rightfully considered a failure. [00:38:36] But to say that this is a war crime because it's an attack on the Iranian people, they don't think that. [00:38:42] They've been very clear in communicating that. [00:38:44] Anyone telling you that is either misinformed or being dishonest. [00:38:47] Does that make sense? [00:38:48] That's not part of the conversation as to whether we should be spending money, whether it's our job, because there are plenty of people who need to be liberated across the whole globe, but that's not America's purview. [00:38:59] But those telling you that this is a war crime because we are targeting the Iranian people and comparing it, for example, to Iraq and saying people don't want us there. [00:39:08] This is actually. [00:39:10] By request from the Iranian people. [00:39:13] You could look at it as by request from Israel, by request from the families of the thousands of American troops who were killed at the hands of the Iranian regime, or by request from the entirety of the Iranian people who aren't directly related to the Ayatollah. [00:39:28] You can disagree with it, but you can't disagree with those facts. [00:39:31] Yeah. [00:39:31] And there are plenty of reasons to argue for or against. [00:39:34] That's fine. [00:39:34] Don't make plenty of reasons up. [00:39:36] And it's not just people on the left like Mehdi Hassan. [00:39:37] I won't name names right now, but plenty of people on the right ran with that too. [00:39:41] People you would consider very conservative people, whether or not they like the Republicans all the time, that's up for debate, that's fine. [00:39:47] Running with that same thing, Trump just committed a war crime. === American Financing Mortgage (02:47) === [00:39:49] Yeah. [00:39:49] And I saw an image of a bridge blowing up and I'm like, huh? [00:39:53] Where's the war crime? [00:39:54] Well, put it this way: if we want to have the financial discussion, absolutely. [00:39:58] But the betrayal discussion, and we've been talking about this quite a bit, that Donald Trump, this is not what he campaigned on. [00:40:03] Okay, you could say that, and I've made the case that, of course, going back to the 80s, he said that we need to do whatever we can to prevent Iran from having a nuke. [00:40:09] You could actually argue that this is exactly what he campaigned on. [00:40:13] In ending forever wars because it's about a 47 year war. [00:40:19] You could make that case because they have been killing Americans and our allies, but many Americans in perpetuity, nonstop, with the pledge, the express pledge that they will continue to do so. [00:40:32] So the war was never going to end, that conflict, to be clear, going all the way back to Carter. [00:40:37] And the IRGC, they can hide missiles anywhere, by the way. [00:40:40] But let's be honest, they can mostly hide them anywhere, but no one can hide from coasts. [00:40:53] Oh, what the? [00:40:55] Mortgage! [00:40:57] What the hell's going on? [00:40:58] You should refinance! [00:41:01] What? [00:41:02] You should refinance with American financing. [00:41:06] They could save you thousands of dollars, as they've helped thousands of Americans before me. [00:41:13] Don't be like me! [00:41:16] Who are you? [00:41:17] I am the ghost of mortgage future. [00:41:21] Every link in my chain was forged by the dollars I could have saved. [00:41:26] Had I refinanced with American financing?

[00:42:38] U Penn doesn't want any of this smoke. [00:42:40] All right. [00:42:43] Oh, here's another one. [00:42:46] You know, just to, you know, Marley was dead to begin with. [00:42:51] Europe is gay. [00:42:53] Yes. [00:42:53] To start. [00:42:54] Right. [00:42:55] Europe sucks. [00:42:56] We're better than Europe. [00:42:57] That's why we left. [00:42:59] They're worse now than when we left them, if you can believe it. [00:43:04] So. [00:43:05] They can't even possibly comprehend. [00:43:07] Like this weekend, the United States, our military, they pulled off a pretty incredible rescue mission, not only recovering just one, but like two downed pilots. [00:43:18] And I know that a lot of people will be circling this going, see, you're sending your children to die for Israel stuff. [00:43:24] But I don't know if you know this. [00:43:25] Historically, until like pilots often died. [00:43:30] Did you know that? [00:43:31] That was often a thing. [00:43:32] Like if you go watch old war films and dogfights, very rarely. [00:43:37] Did pilots, like almost all of them, live as we see today? [00:43:41] Because we go to unbelievable lengths and nothing is foolproof to try and ensure the safety of our pilots. [00:43:47] And then, if something goes wrong, we send out absolute assassins, specialists who get them back anyway. [00:43:56] So, Europe, what's the problem? [00:44:00] What's wrong with that? [00:44:01] What's the problem? [00:44:06] And I'll give you just sort of a foreshadow here. [00:44:08] I don't think that those in Europe, and especially even if you look, Canada is basically Europe. [00:44:12] It's just separated by water, but it's still just as gay. [00:44:15] It's like the, what was that movie, The Happening? [00:44:17] It's like the bees or the wind. [00:44:18] It's like the gay traveled wind. [00:44:21] Well, they're close because the globe at the top of the globe, Canada gets closer to Europe and it's easy. [00:44:26] Yeah, the land bridge theory. [00:44:27] Yeah, the Eskimos and Indians. [00:44:29] It's just gay Canadians from Europe. [00:44:32] The ice shelf. [00:44:33] Alberta, notwithstanding. [00:44:34] That's okay. [00:44:34] You guys are cool. [00:44:35] They don't value human life. [00:44:36] Look, 5% of all deaths in Canada are euthanasia. [00:44:40] Look at what's going on in Europe. [00:44:41] They don't value human life to the same degree that we do, so they can't understand why our military would. [00:44:45] Go in and save our own people. [00:44:46] So that's the one group we're talking about right now. [00:44:49] Not too happy about this rescue mission the gay Europeans. [00:44:59] Europe's message is clear. [00:45:00] This is not their war. [00:45:09] We are unstoppable. [00:45:11] That's fun. [00:45:13] It's been in my head all morning now. [00:45:15] It's a tough song to sing. [00:45:16] It's not one that you can just sing in the shower around people. [00:45:18] They think you're angry. [00:45:19] So this weekend. [00:45:21] In the shower around people? [00:45:22] Whoa. [00:45:23] Well, you know, I like to clarify. [00:45:24] Like at the Y? [00:45:25] Nice. [00:45:27] I like to verify how clean I am. [00:45:29] See? [00:45:30] Yeah. [00:45:33] Doctor, your opinion? [00:45:36] Noodles has to ask for a second. [00:45:37] Get the sigmoidoscope. [00:45:39] This weekend, two airmen were rescued inside Iran, for those who missed it. [00:45:43] This was an incredibly complex and dangerous operation for the rescue team and for that missing Air Force aviator who had evaded capture behind enemy lines for days. [00:45:54] But in the end, the news we had all been hoping for that the second crew member is now out of Iran, seriously wounded, according to the president, but he is safe. [00:46:06] Now, you know, when people say, hey, can we find common ground? [00:46:08] When the left says they want to find common ground with you, and that includes most of gay Europe, they're lying to you. [00:46:12] Because this is one where we should find common ground. [00:46:14] Like, hey, right? [00:46:15] Great. [00:46:15] American. [00:46:16] Fantastic. [00:46:17] Isn't this fantastic? [00:46:18] No, they're upset about it. [00:46:19] And the reason they're upset about it is because President Trump is obviously happy about it. [00:46:23] So he posted this on Truth Social. [00:46:26] He said, We got him, my fellow Americans. [00:46:28] Over the past several hours, the United States military pulled off one of the most daring search and rescue operations in U.S. history from one of our incredible crew member officers who. [00:46:39] Also happens to be a highly respected colonel and who I am thrilled to let you know is now safe and sound. [00:46:47] I mean, I think they normally put it together. [00:46:49] We will never leave an American warfighter behind. [00:46:51] I have to do all the catches. [00:46:52] Yeah, that's true. [00:46:53] The fact that we were able to pull off both of these operations without a single American killed or even wounded just proves once again that we have achieved overwhelming air dominance and superiority over the Iranian skies. [00:47:04] Now, I wanted to ask you, Josh, because of your experience, this is maybe it's not the most, but it's. [00:47:10] Pretty impressive. [00:47:11] It's very impressive. [00:47:12] The thing that stood out to me about the impressiveness of it is because we've had great rescue operations in the past. [00:47:18] Stuff like, you know, the Lone Survivor story with Marcus Luttrell. [00:47:22] We've had Jessica Lynch in Iraq, the Battle of Mogadishu. [00:47:26] Yeah. [00:47:26] But with this operation, the most impressive thing is zero casualties on our side zero. [00:47:32] And some on theirs. [00:47:34] We don't know the full number yet. [00:47:36] But yeah, I don't know if we're going through the whole timeline of it, but it's very, very impressive that we were able to. [00:47:44] Create a diversion operation and able to get our guys there. [00:47:50] Had problems, accounted for the problems, got out, took care of the problem they left on the ground, all while nobody getting hurt. [00:47:59] And very impressive on the weapons officer. [00:48:02] He scaled a 7,000 foot ridgeline. [00:48:05] Jeez. [00:48:06] I don't think he climbed 7,000 feet. [00:48:07] He was probably somewhere along the ridgeline already. [00:48:09] But still, very impressive. [00:48:11] Almost got hit a couple times, a couple near misses. [00:48:14] Stop bragging, said Europe. [00:48:18] You think you're so good because you save your soldiers? [00:48:21] Yeah, we do. [00:48:22] That's some kind of Finnish guy. [00:48:23] Because that's who we are. [00:48:25] That's our culture. [00:48:26] People say we don't have culture. [00:48:27] That is our culture. [00:48:29] General McKenzie said this on, I think, ABC this weekend. [00:48:31] He said, It takes a year to build an aircraft, but it takes 200 years to build a military tradition where we do not abandon our soldiers. [00:48:39] Right. [00:48:40] And that doesn't hit deep with you. [00:48:42] I don't know what else. [00:48:43] Well, Europe can't understand that, I guess. [00:48:45] Well, We'll get to some of the. [00:48:46] So on Friday, the F 15 was shot down. [00:48:48] The pilot was located, extracted immediately. [00:48:51] Like you said, it was 36 hours. [00:48:53] The weapons officer was hiding in the moons. [00:48:55] At least, yeah. [00:48:56] There's going to be a movie, I'm sure, at some point more. [00:48:57] Yeah, I don't know if Alan Richin can fit in the F 15, but. [00:49:01] And the rescue mission cost like $200 to $300 million, depending on what estimate you use and if you count the downed F 15. [00:49:08] So this brings us to Gay Europe's response. [00:49:13] Would I have a stinger for that? [00:49:14] The French Polish commentator, I don't know if it's Polish or French, Daniel Foubert wrote on X, wrote, Lose all this to rescue one pilot and call it your greatest military success of all time. [00:49:27] Guys will literally be complete losers, but say, Hey, we behaved like heroes. [00:49:33] You can't understand that. [00:49:37] You know what? [00:49:37] I mean, you're French, so you're most likely a faggot, and so that's probably why you don't understand. [00:49:43] I would say the losers are the ones bleeding in the sand. [00:49:45] Yeah, so would I. [00:49:46] I don't know if you can know, but we killed some of their guys. [00:49:49] At least nine. [00:49:50] Yeah, at least nine. [00:49:51] That's why this morning, or it was yesterday, I had read like seven, then I saw nine. [00:49:55] It's like sitting outside of McDonald's watching the numbers change. [00:49:58] You're just like, oh. [00:50:00] We just keep serving them. [00:50:03] And I get it. [00:50:04] I get it. [00:50:06] They got to get assigned at the Pentagon. [00:50:08] Exactly. [00:50:12] I get it. [00:50:13] They don't have a lot of planes in France. [00:50:14] That's fine. [00:50:15] I understand that this would be a big loss to you. [00:50:17] It's not to us. [00:50:18] These are just planes. [00:50:19] Right. [00:50:19] Yeah. [00:50:19] I mean, then he got, of course, rightfully dumped on and he responded with You literally send thousands of people to death, but you do everything you can to rescue one guy and show your public opinion that human life matters more than meeting war objectives quickly. [00:50:35] What? [00:50:36] Easy, hypocritical war marketing the Americans will always buy. [00:50:40] Okay. [00:50:40] Speaking of war, tell me the last time you won one. [00:50:45] You know what? [00:50:46] It doesn't matter because you don't have to win them. [00:50:50] You're welcome. [00:50:51] Yeah, this guy says, you save one guy, you think this is the greatest military operation of your history? [00:50:57] No, no, our greatest military operation in our history is landing on your beaches and liberating your country. [00:51:01] That's true, yeah. [00:51:02] Which one, Poland, France? [00:51:03] Either fucking one, dude. [00:51:05] Those were tourist beaches. [00:51:07] Which world war would you like? [00:51:09] I got examples of both. [00:51:11] Get out of here, dude. [00:51:13] Here's the thing this matters because the left always, and they'll point to a different country depending on what's. [00:51:19] They always want to compare us to other countries, and they always start off with the premise that we are inferior. [00:51:22] We're inferior to France, for example, because they have more leisure. [00:51:25] They call it work life balance. [00:51:27] I call it not giving the world anything of note in about a century. [00:51:32] They'll point to Japan and say, see, look, they don't have any guns and they have no violence. [00:51:39] Sure, first off, they just count every single Yakuza death as a suicide, but it's also a people under an imperialist nation and it's entirely homogenous. [00:51:45] They're also not getting invaded because of our bases there. [00:51:48] Right. [00:51:49] Also, you want to follow their immigration policy? [00:51:51] We covered that last week. [00:51:53] I believe that the United States is still the greatest country in the world. [00:51:56] I think that we have a lot to fix or improve. [00:52:00] These people don't. [00:52:01] But if someone is going to tell you, you Americans are stupid, or you guys, then they need to present you with an alternative. [00:52:07] You know what that alternative would be with a faggot like Foubert. [00:52:11] And I'm using that term very strictly here. [00:52:13] Foubert? [00:52:14] Yes, Foubert. [00:52:16] Foubert. [00:52:16] Foubert. [00:52:17] Oh, man, that's Foubert's cousin. [00:52:20] Yes, he's his French cousin. [00:52:22] Foubert le fag. [00:52:23] Fag. [00:52:23] Foubert le fag. [00:52:26] But if I want the honey, I have to go get it myself. [00:52:29] That's right. [00:52:30] Oh, no. [00:52:31] Oh, bother. [00:52:32] Can't the rabbit just bring it to me? [00:52:34] More than six feet off the ground. [00:52:36] I think I'm smoking a cigarette. [00:52:42] These guys can't comprehend it. [00:52:44] It's not even in their mind to think about the one man. [00:52:47] It's not even, F that guy. [00:52:50] We have a plane or we have to protect. [00:52:52] And they go, it's more important than a successful mission. [00:52:57] What mission was lost because of that? [00:52:58] Right. [00:52:59] Because of this rescue mission? [00:53:00] Nothing. [00:53:00] That pilot, he's going to be treated, and guess what? [00:53:05] He's going to be back in another fighter jet. [00:53:06] Yep. [00:53:07] He's going to be killing more of those. [00:53:09] He's going to be right back at it. [00:53:10] That's a lot of fun. [00:53:11] By the way, also, Foubert did reach out to the pilot's father specifically for comment. [00:53:14] Here's how it went. [00:53:16] There he is now. [00:53:17] Let's go ask him some questions. [00:53:19] Excuse me, monsieur. [00:53:21] Do you think all this was worth saving your son's life? [00:53:28] Don't you dare. [00:53:30] Attempt to go in my business. [00:53:34] I couldn't comprehend that either. [00:53:36] But, uh. [00:53:39] That is behaving like a hero? [00:53:41] I can't believe it. [00:53:42] I was wearing glasses. [00:53:44] Ha ha ha ha. [00:53:48] Not to be outdone by French faggotry, British radio caller actually said it would be good or better if Iran had caught the weapons officer. [00:53:57] These people don't share your values. [00:54:00] I think it would be good if Iran captured this American airman. [00:54:03] Because? [00:54:04] To use him as a bargaining ship to stop this madness. [00:54:08] Stop this. [00:54:09] I mean, Trump has lost the plot, and it's just out of control. [00:54:13] I mean, this war now is not about Iran or the Iranians. [00:54:17] It's about American interests, other interests. [00:54:20] It's not about. [00:54:21] The Iranian people or Iran. [00:54:24] I didn't think I'd take a call from anyone saying, I hope the Iranians catch the airman and use him as a chip. [00:54:30] But you think that that would be an indirect way to. [00:54:33] When they lose one of their men in action, crashes, they will do what? [00:54:38] They send in a whole team to rescue. [00:54:40] You're right. [00:54:40] They send in helicopters. [00:54:42] They're already doing it. [00:54:43] I mean, they've done it. [00:54:44] They're doing it. [00:54:44] They do what they do to recover it. [00:54:45] So it's a big issue for America and American people. [00:54:49] So unfortunately, it's just the way it is. [00:54:50] I don't really hope it. [00:54:52] I don't think you'd be mistreated by Iran as well. [00:54:57] They probably set him up with a nice cup of tea. [00:54:59] Yeah. [00:55:00] Yeah. [00:55:00] He's good too. [00:55:01] As a bargaining chip, I'm sorry, you guys called him fries. [00:55:08] What? [00:55:09] Can I say this? [00:55:10] Will this be a threat of, not a threat of violence? [00:55:12] It's just me speaking. [00:55:13] Okay. [00:55:14] I hope that man gets the shit kicked out of him. [00:55:18] How about that? [00:55:18] I hope he gets the shit kicked out of him by someone telling him that he's treating him nicely. [00:55:22] This is the level of delusion that we are facing. [00:55:25] You can disagree with. [00:55:26] Foreign, of course, but these were issues that we discussed for a very long time in this country and didn't demand impeachment or claim betrayal. [00:55:33] Let's go to the alternative. [00:55:35] This is, it's about American interests, isn't it? [00:55:38] Where do you get your energy, you limey? [00:55:41] Where do you, yeah, it's more about your, when was the last time you met your contractual amount in NATO spending? [00:55:47] This is actually about the interests of the globe, but let's just say we don't. [00:55:50] Iran, who will treat this American military service member very well. [00:55:57] Let's just say they capture them. [00:55:58] Let's just say that we stop right now. [00:55:59] What is the alternative? [00:56:01] The Iranian regime continues. [00:56:03] They continue to build up missiles. [00:56:04] They continue to build up drones. [00:56:06] They create an impenetrable dome and they can do whatever they want enrich uranium and eventually build a nuclear weapon. [00:56:12] It's just a matter of time. [00:56:12] And I know people say, well, we've been hearing this for decades. [00:56:14] Yeah, well, it's been thwarted for decades, just so you guys know. [00:56:17] That's also a really stupid thing people say. [00:56:18] We've been hearing this for decades. [00:56:19] You know that their centrifuges were hacked, right? [00:56:22] Like there's been a lot of steps taken to stop them. [00:56:25] They definitely could have gotten here faster. [00:56:27] So in the alternative world, we pack up, we leave. [00:56:31] Okay. [00:56:32] The Iranian people, anyone there who, by the way, showed support for the American operation or anyone who voiced discontent with the regime, will be executed, women and children included. [00:56:43] First, they'll be ceremoniously raped as a form of punishment, and Iran goes on to being a threat to the rest of the world. [00:56:50] You may say that you don't think they're a lot of a threat, they're much of a threat. [00:56:53] Fine. [00:56:54] But the alternative right now is that. [00:56:59] Is that? [00:57:00] And then, as far as the part is, they'll send all these people in. [00:57:03] I tell you this because I was raised in Canada. [00:57:05] It really is an inferiority complex. [00:57:07] They wouldn't be able to rescue their people, many of these militaries. [00:57:12] It's not within their capabilities. [00:57:14] So, all they can offer is criticism. [00:57:17] Or they're too scared. [00:57:18] Or they don't care. [00:57:19] One silver lining out of this whole thing is that it is good to know that the world knows. [00:57:24] We know that the world knows who we are and what we'll do to get our people back. [00:57:28] Yeah. [00:57:28] Anything. [00:57:30] So, go ahead. [00:57:31] Yep. [00:57:31] We know it's coming. [00:57:32] We value life in a way that these people don't. [00:57:34] I mean, let's just compare Europe, and we can go to Canada. [00:57:38] We've told you Canada was 5% of all deaths. [00:57:40] Spain, right? [00:57:41] They're a recent euthanasia story. [00:57:43] It's not just Canada. [00:57:44] This was last week. [00:57:44] It was Noelia Castillo who was granted assisted suicide after being gang raped and left paralyzed. [00:57:50] So, you have these countries that welcome their rapists with open arms in the name of tolerance. [00:57:56] And then, when it's too much to bear for a woman who never should have been put in that position in the first place, well, they'll grant you the sweet mercy of death. === Platform Hate Speech Bias (15:25) === [00:58:04] While they also don't pay for their own defense and complain about how we do it. [00:58:11] This is where I'm a nationalist. [00:58:12] I'm America first, but I'm pretty old school in the sense that anytime you get a freebie to kill some commies or Islamofascists, I say you take it. [00:58:21] If it's a layup, you take it. [00:58:23] I do not live in a world where there are no threats to the United States outside of needing more social security or entitlements. [00:58:30] I don't know when that became something on the horseshoe right where it's like, well, we have money for this, but. [00:58:34] How about daycare? [00:58:35] I don't want us to spend a bunch of money on daycare. [00:58:37] I think that the military is a legitimate role of government. [00:58:40] And I don't think free shit for people who don't contribute and pay no federal income tax is. [00:58:45] That's my opinion. [00:58:46] It doesn't mean that I support needless wars. [00:58:48] I don't. [00:58:50] I support military action when appropriate. [00:58:54] That remains to be determined as swiftly, violently, and effectively as possible. [00:59:00] And we can have that discussion. [00:59:01] I can't have that discussion with anyone who thinks that the Iranian regime would treat American soldiers well or any. [00:59:08] Person who refuses to submit to Islam well, or that there are no threats globally outside of the United States. [00:59:15] These people believe that the United States is the biggest global threat. [00:59:17] They'll say the United States is the biggest state of terror, it's the biggest global threat, and then complain that we value life to the degree that we will spend hundreds of millions of dollars to save one while they execute their own people for the crime of being gang raped, likely by migrants. [00:59:33] Europe, why don't you sit this one out because you've really not done anything all that great for a century. [00:59:40] Anything else? [00:59:41] I missed anything? [00:59:42] Nope. [00:59:42] All right. [00:59:44] You're old trash. [00:59:45] Speaking of Europe, a lot of those places, they've banned or tried to ban or put limitations on X. Plenty of European nations have put bans on Rumble. [00:59:54] And this was part of the opening statement that I was going to have. [00:59:58] I'm still planning on going April 10th that you pen. [01:00:01] Wherever the left achieves power, free speech dies. [01:00:06] Wherever free speech can thrive, the left dies. [01:00:10] And you can see it quite clearly, too, with the lawsuits against big tech. [01:00:15] When people say, ah, you know, both the right and the left, they just use it as a cudgel. [01:00:19] No, no, no. [01:00:20] If you look at the lawfare, the right, the overwhelming number of, I don't even know if you can find a single suit to the opposite, overwhelming number of lawsuits and complaints filed have been because of infringements on freedom of speech in the First Amendment. [01:00:34] The lawsuits have been to open up more speech. [01:00:38] The left's lawsuits that you see against places like X, or in some cases Rumble, are to limit speech. [01:00:46] They say you're letting hate speech thrive on your platform. [01:00:51] We are not the same. [01:00:52] And so now people are complaining that X is a right wing echo chamber. [01:00:56] I've heard people say that about Rumble. [01:01:00] If you are watching and you are a leftist, I don't care if you are the Young Turks, if you are, insert whoever here, I don't know, a Hassan guy who supports the communist regime in Cuba, you're just as free to upload to Rumble or post on X as I am. [01:01:15] Guarantee you, you won't be banned. [01:01:18] Can we say the same for those on the right? [01:01:21] On Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Meta, Twitter before it became X. That's right, there was a Department of Misinformation. [01:01:28] That's right, the Hunter Biden laptop story was censored. [01:01:30] That's right, doctors were removed. [01:01:32] Pre vaccine for offering supplementary treatment with a novel virus. [01:01:39] Right? [01:01:40] So rather than going, hey, there's at least one spot where everyone can have these conversations, what inevitably happens is leftists leave. [01:01:47] They try to take their ball and go home when they don't have control. [01:01:49] And the left then points, goes, look, this platform is a hate speech platform. [01:01:57] How convenient. [01:01:58] So, Nate Silver, who did a horrible job with this, just a horrible job. [01:02:02] I remember the bumper stickers, trust Nate Silver, going into the 2016 election. [01:02:06] We're a far cry from that. [01:02:07] He posted this bubble chart yesterday. [01:02:10] Ooh, pretty. [01:02:11] And kind of talking about how there's a lack of diversity. [01:02:14] This was the interpretation diversity of thought on X. [01:02:17] He wrote, These are the Twitter X accounts with the most engagement so far in 2026. [01:02:21] I suppose I had some intuition for how bad it was, but geez, this is what you get when the ecosystem is broken. [01:02:28] Tracks like engagements, likes, retweets, stuff like that. [01:02:31] Few issues that clearly make this wrong. [01:02:36] Well, number one, Elon unbanned a lot of accounts, right? [01:02:40] This is going to be biased when you then see the left abandon X for bluer skies somewhere else. [01:02:47] The left decided to leave X. [01:02:49] It's not that they've been banned, people were unbanned, and the left said, oh, I don't want to have to deal with people who were wrongfully banned. [01:02:55] So they left. [01:02:56] Hi, everyone. [01:02:57] I have loved connecting with all of you on Twitter and then on X for all of these years. [01:03:03] But it's time for me to leave the platform. [01:03:06] I'm getting off. [01:03:08] Gross. [01:03:09] I'm tired of remote control, depends. [01:03:11] Having had certain kinds of attitudes blocked and now they're back on. [01:03:17] Hey guys, so today I finally did something I've been meaning to do for a while. [01:03:23] Started therapy. [01:03:27] Once Elon Musk took it over, I feel like he ruined it. [01:03:30] The most patriotic thing I could do is to just delete the account. [01:03:35] Wait. [01:03:36] There's an additional online hour of the view. [01:03:40] Well, you know what they say behind every table of dumb ladies, it's one guy. [01:03:45] Someone said, I need more view. [01:03:48] I need to see how the sausage is made. [01:03:50] They make it look so easy. [01:03:52] Show me how you do it. [01:03:54] And Navarro will show you how the sausage is eaten. [01:03:56] Yes. [01:03:57] Hi, not anymore. [01:03:59] I found Ozempic. [01:04:03] Hey, but that's your fault. [01:04:04] And here's the thing this is not, it's like if this was the only example we had. [01:04:08] Now, do Charlie Kirk. [01:04:10] Now, do every change my mind we've done, whether it's a milkshake, could be concrete, chocolate, vanilla, or acid. [01:04:16] Let's do the UMass, Triglypuff. [01:04:20] Do every single time that conservatives have shown up on campus. [01:04:23] Who are the ones screeching and protesting and demanding that they be silenced consistently? [01:04:28] You might find one or two outliers, though seriously, I doubt it. [01:04:34] You don't see the flip side of that. [01:04:36] And the same thing happens online. [01:04:38] We're all so used to being insulted, chastised, flagged. [01:04:43] All the time, once we have a platform that's somewhat of an even playing field, like, oh, sure, this is great. [01:04:49] Because we had to fight for our spot on Facebook, on YouTube, on Google. [01:04:55] The left couldn't handle just the basic at replies on X. [01:05:00] So they left. [01:05:01] And now the institutional left wants to blame the platform itself for the left being pussies. [01:05:06] That's the submarine. [01:05:08] There are sometimes right wing people that will protest some things, but it's usually an unwanted wiener in your face. [01:05:14] Right. [01:05:15] Yeah. [01:05:16] Or near children or something like that. [01:05:18] That's usually, it's like, well, hey, we don't think that this book showing kids how to suck a wiener should be there. [01:05:24] Right. [01:05:25] That's a violation of free speech. [01:05:27] Yeah, exactly. [01:05:27] And even then, we usually don't shoot anybody or show up with masks and beat them up. [01:05:32] So, other leftist celebrities who announced they were leaving X, Mark Hamill, Alyssa Milano, Jamie Lee Curtis, who also said, You can't tell which of my daughters is trans. [01:05:41] Yeah, we can. [01:05:47] Go back to your Activia commercials till you shit your pants. [01:05:51] It depends. [01:05:52] Stephen King left. [01:05:53] He's got a kid looking like Michael Myers. [01:05:55] Yeah. [01:05:55] Then returned. [01:05:56] And yet a bunch of news outlets that abandon X. Can someone give me any reason? [01:06:02] Any reason for NPR, PBS, The Guardian to leave one of the major social platforms? [01:06:08] Any valid reason other than they are cowards? [01:06:12] And I know NPR, I think it's 92% of their employees give to the left. [01:06:15] They receive a huge public. [01:06:16] Yeah. [01:06:17] There's a P in two of those public. [01:06:19] Like you're supposed to try to reach. [01:06:21] The public, not one section of the public. [01:06:23] No, here's the thing, too. [01:06:24] The left doesn't try and reach the public. [01:06:26] They don't actually want to be in the battlefield of arguments. [01:06:29] Why? [01:06:29] Because they lose. [01:06:30] What they want to do is have a third party bomb the whole battlefield. [01:06:35] That's what they want. [01:06:36] That's what you see with UPenn. [01:06:38] They want to control it, they want to put on stipulations. [01:06:41] You can say what you want about the right consistently. [01:06:44] They go, okay, all right. [01:06:46] It's people on the right who had to start this. [01:06:49] I mean, when I came up with the idea, no one is doing this. [01:06:52] They changed my mind on campus. [01:06:54] Let's just go do black and white and the gray issues. [01:06:56] Talk with anyone in the street. [01:06:58] Let's make sure that people can discuss these issues. [01:07:00] Let's do a live stream. [01:07:01] Let's cover the election. [01:07:03] The left doesn't do that. [01:07:04] They hit you with copyright claims. [01:07:06] They hit you with hate speech violations. [01:07:09] They create departments to remove conservatives. [01:07:12] They don't want to be on the battlefield of ideas. [01:07:15] They're not used to it. [01:07:16] Especially publicly, like that on X. [01:07:18] They share an article that's something stupid, some stupid idea about wieners in a locker room. [01:07:22] And then right wing accounts share it and go, look at how stupid this is. [01:07:26] Look at how stupid this writer is and this publication is. [01:07:28] And then they go, ah, shoot, we look stupid. [01:07:30] Yeah. [01:07:31] Yeah. [01:07:31] We got to bounce out of here. [01:07:32] I think there might be a little bit of an orchestrated element to this, too. [01:07:35] Yes. [01:07:35] They go, hey, if we all get off of this. [01:07:37] Exactly. [01:07:38] Then we can say, well, it's just a right wing echo chamber. [01:07:42] Right. [01:07:42] And there's no freedom of ideas on X because people like us aren't there. [01:07:45] That's exactly the. [01:07:46] So here's the game plan, just so you know. [01:07:49] About a million people, right after the 2024 election, right? [01:07:51] A million leftists left. [01:07:53] They left X and they went to Blue Sky, which sucks. [01:07:55] There is no. [01:07:56] Just try and post something remotely critical on Blue Sky or on Reddit. [01:08:00] See what happens. [01:08:01] Respectfully critical. [01:08:03] You're gone. [01:08:05] So they leave, and they're hoping that when the left comes back into power, and by the way, they will be helped by their useful dummies on the right who say, everyone is all the same, don't vote. [01:08:14] As soon as the left attains power, they will label X in places like Rumble sites to be flagged for misinformation or hate speech. [01:08:22] And then you'll have legislation that will curtail that. [01:08:25] That is what is going to happen. [01:08:26] That is their game plan. [01:08:27] Nowhere in the left's game plan, and I've been here since 2008, fighting the left on YouTube, nowhere in their game plan will you find included. [01:08:38] Arguing ideas. [01:08:40] Systemically, you'll find individuals. [01:08:42] We're talking about the systemic approach. [01:08:44] Number two, another problem with Nate Silver's thing here. [01:08:47] There is, by the way, more diversity of thought on the right. [01:08:50] So if you look at even his chart, and by the way, there's a bunch of clickbait crap on there too. [01:08:55] I get it. [01:08:55] It's not something that I look at and go, oh, these are all great accounts. [01:08:58] But they don't all share the same perspective, to be clear. [01:09:01] It's not the same as you would find on Blue Sky. [01:09:03] So the right has remained pretty consistent. [01:09:05] The left has moved further and further and further and further left to the point where when they are in charge of institutions, You have not one, but two men beating the hell out of women at the Olympic boxing events. [01:09:15] And number three, the graph just has some flat out, like, it's just not correct. [01:09:19] Yeah. [01:09:20] So they listed as neutral Adam Kinzinger, Russia Today. [01:09:24] What? [01:09:24] Al Jazeera, Jimmy Fallon. [01:09:28] That's one's just because I don't like him. [01:09:29] The worst one is Adam Kinzinger. [01:09:31] He is, I mean, Russia Today, I know you'd think no, but no. [01:09:34] And then they listed as right wing Thomas Massey, Piers Morgan, Jackson Hinkle. [01:09:39] Oh, geez. [01:09:40] Jackson Hinkle. [01:09:41] How's that even possible? [01:09:42] Isn't he a self proclaimed communist? [01:09:43] Yes. [01:09:44] Yes. [01:09:44] He simps for Iran. [01:09:45] He simps for China. [01:09:46] He simps for anybody who sucks. [01:09:48] And I don't even know how he let this go out publicly. [01:09:52] Like, right away, if I were just to review it, I'd be like, oh, wait, no. [01:09:55] You got to fix that. [01:09:56] Why? [01:09:56] Well, you have Jackson Hinkle on there, is right. [01:09:58] We're going to look stupid. [01:09:59] Yeah. [01:09:59] Yeah. [01:10:00] It doesn't look like we don't do any research at all. [01:10:02] No, no, no. [01:10:02] We're going to look stupid. [01:10:03] Again, like worse than when we said Hillary Clinton was going to win by like 15 points or whatever it was. [01:10:07] Right. [01:10:07] I would love to see Jackson Hinkle correct it. [01:10:09] Yes, that would be. [01:10:11] Actually. [01:10:12] I'm more neutral. [01:10:13] I'm not a child. [01:10:14] He is nibbles on the wiener. [01:10:16] According to my research, if the left is calling X. According to my research, Chinese penises are smaller. [01:10:24] And then he gets the wrong lawn. [01:10:25] He's like, I knew I should have stayed home today. [01:10:29] Work sucks. [01:10:32] Better school bus to the Flintstones. [01:10:36] It's a living. [01:10:39] So the left. [01:10:41] Gross. [01:10:42] If they're calling X an echo chamber for the right, what do they call this? [01:10:50] To be clear, it looks like a good time. [01:10:52] The right also has their own bathhouses. [01:10:55] Okay. [01:10:56] Yes. [01:10:56] Hey, I've been with men and I am not ashamed of that at all. [01:11:01] Here's the difference. [01:11:02] Outside of Gerald, not one of those noted homosexuals will be offended by that joke. [01:11:07] No. [01:11:09] No. [01:11:10] I don't remember that. [01:11:11] Now I know whether Photoshop wasn't ready for run through. [01:11:13] Well, the fast one on you. [01:11:17] Yeah. [01:11:17] Oh, it's not ready. [01:11:18] I guess it was ready. [01:11:20] Friday. [01:11:24] But this is when the left attains power, free speech dies. [01:11:29] If free speech is allowed to thrive, the left dies. [01:11:34] It doesn't mean that it comes without complications. [01:11:38] Of course, it does. [01:11:39] Anytime you allow more freedom, and certainly freedom of speech, you're going to get more arguments, you're going to get more conflict, you are going to get more bad actors, you are going to get more misinformation, but you also are going to get the only self correction mechanism that we know of at this point in time. [01:11:56] And that is people armed with the truth being able to correct those who are speaking lies. [01:12:01] The left has no ability to do that. [01:12:05] That's the big difference. [01:12:06] In other words, you'll see people on the right say, and by the way, the French Legion in Egypt, they're the ones who killed Charlie Kirk. [01:12:14] You'll see some people, but then someone will go, no, hold on, that doesn't make sense. [01:12:17] And they will correct them. [01:12:18] The left will say the Hunter Biden laptop is disinformation and all platforms will ban it. [01:12:27] The left will say Donald Trump said very fine people referring to neo Nazis, and none of them question it. [01:12:33] And they won't even allow a guest on the platforms to go, hold on a second, rewind that tape about 20 seconds. [01:12:38] They have no correction mechanism for misinformation. [01:12:42] So let's assume misinformation, just for the sake of argument, exists on both sides. [01:12:47] It's 50 50, left and right. [01:12:50] Who do you think is going to be able to correct it? [01:12:56] Which side will be able to, if eventually, get to the truth or the right answer? [01:13:03] It's not possible on the left. [01:13:06] That's why they evade speech, debates, open dialogue. [01:13:11] And the right lives for it. [01:13:14] We are not the same. [01:13:17] And we have a country that is distinctly right wing in comparison to pretty much all other countries, certainly as it relates to individual freedoms, that people flock to because of that. === Soleimani Niece Truth (02:40) === [01:13:30] For more proof, case in point, Soleimani's nieces, his relatives, did you know that they were here? [01:13:36] On a visa? [01:13:37] No. [01:13:38] And we deported them? [01:13:39] Oh, good. [01:13:40] Yeah. [01:13:40] Yeah. [01:13:41] So I want to be really clear about this, but we've gone over time. [01:13:45] So, and we've got, because we had to start late because of all the shenanigans with UPenn. [01:13:49] If you are not, by the way, a member, do consider signing up, especially, you know, we don't get that deposit back for the debates that we're trying to do on campus. [01:13:59] Costs a lot. [01:13:59] We're supported by viewers like you. [01:14:00] There's no 501c3, no giant nonprofit. [01:14:03] It's $99 a year. [01:14:04] Get this wonderful hand-edged mug. [01:14:06] You get 100% more show, the Friday show, and everything you see, add. [01:14:09] Free and keeps the lights on where we can continue to do these things. [01:14:12] If not, hey, you're going to go on and continue watching Haley Coronia for free today. [01:14:16] We'll raid to her and let us re earn your viewership next. [01:14:19] We'll keep you updated on what's happening at UPenn. [01:14:21] We really hope that we can make it happen. [01:14:22] But deporting the nieces, relatives of Soleimani because they were here, meaning we had to take steps to deport relatives who were supportive of and relatives to the Ayatollah. [01:14:42] Or once in the Ayatollah. [01:14:45] To be clear, how is this even an issue? [01:14:47] So I want to be clear. [01:14:48] Just to be clear. [01:14:50] I want to be clear. [01:14:50] Just to be clear. [01:14:53] Here you go. [01:14:54] Just to be clear, Solomon was not the Ayatollah. [01:14:56] He was the general. [01:14:57] Oh, sorry. [01:14:57] Did I say he was the general? [01:14:59] He was the general. [01:14:59] Ayatollah. [01:15:00] How many Ayatollahs are we down to now? [01:15:01] Just the gay one? [01:15:02] No, you can admonish me. [01:15:04] I know Solomon. [01:15:06] Was he the one who died like a dog? [01:15:08] Yeah. [01:15:09] That's what Trump died like a dog. [01:15:10] Died like a dog. [01:15:11] Sorry. [01:15:12] You can admonish me. [01:15:13] It's been a long day. [01:15:14] And it's only noon. [01:15:17] Yes. [01:15:18] Oh, come on. [01:15:19] He died like a dog on all fours. [01:15:21] Take another stab at the dog. [01:15:22] Wow. [01:15:22] He died like a dog. [01:15:23] Soleimani, the person who was killed in the first Trump administration, to be clear, not the Ayatollah and then Generation 2, 3, 4, whatever we're down to now, in the second Trump administration, they kind of all bleed together as Islamic assholes. [01:15:40] Soleimani's niece, were they both, I know, a niece and then I believe, Two nieces, one niece, one grand niece. [01:15:47] One niece, one grand niece. [01:15:50] The Solomon nieces. [01:15:52] Yeah, the Solomon nieces. [01:15:53] Their permanent resident status was revoked, which to me, I go, there was one? [01:16:01] This is Hamadei Soleimani Afshar's profile on Facebook. [01:16:06] She's the niece of former Iranian major general Kasim.
