TODAY we go over the bombshell news of Trump’s conviction and share some of our favorite responses. From Facebook, to twitter, to Trump himself, the derangement reaches a fever pitch as pundits call for civil war, voters convince themselves that the felony convictions will help Trump, and liberals talk about how gangsta New York is for prosecuting the former president. And to top it all off… Biden thinks this is FUNNY Sinnerman-Nina SImone Sign up at http://patreon.com/miniondeathcult for $5/month and get 2 bonus episodes a week
The liberals are destroying California and conservative humor gone awry.
Conservative humor gone awry is going to fascist-phonia today.
So stay tuned.
We're going to take a few pictures of the desert and how their policies are actually messing it up.
It's not beautiful when you go across that border.
Stay tuned guys, we'll show you exactly what it does.
We'll show you exactly what it looks like when you're going to the desert.
All there in Martin, we'll stay.
Stay tuned.
We're not that bad.
I think that you're both Italian and it would be like a crime against humanity for you to not talk over each other.
Yeah, we can't suppress our, you know, what's inside of us.
All right, fair enough.
I'm glad we ended another business meeting with, well, it turns out we're great.
- No need to improve. - We're good.
Watch it.
Yeah, okay.
Well, I'm Alexander Edward.
And I'm Tony Boswell.
And I'm Ani.
And we're Minion Death Cult.
The world is ending.
New York is responsible.
And we're documenting it.
What's up, everybody?
Happy, happy days.
Happy days to everybody.
We got him.
We got the president.
Ani is so excited.
That's why we had to get her on the third mic.
Ani, I believe, was talking before the show about how justice prevailed and how there's a sense of common order has been restored to the nation at large with Trump's guilty conviction on 34 counts.
Is that right, Ani?
Did I get that correct?
Absolutely, the national blood pressure has dropped by like 20 points.
Yeah, I think it was important that we had you on because it wasn't so much a victory for America, that was a victory for American women.
For women, for sure.
That was a victory for women in America.
I think so.
Do you think so, Lani?
It was a victory for every customer who comes into the bookstore who buys a Libraries for All sticker, you know?
Hell yeah.
I love those people.
I watched a tear crawl back into a woman's eye as a version of that.
Just get sucked back in.
Uh, yep.
Trump, uh, finally been convicted as a con man, a fraud, and a lying son of a bitch.
Trying to channel my liberal grandfather here, you know?
Those are the real, like, you know, heroes today.
Those are the real, like, recipients of honor, I think, are the Lib Dads and Resist Mothers and, uh, you know, the, uh... I, uh... What's the... Sorry.
You know, the View ants out there.
Yeah, yeah.
My dad did text me.
Sorry, go ahead, Oni.
Sorry.
My dad did text me right when it happened, and he was like, is the whole store cheering right now?
I was like, no, we're all working, dad.
I don't think I don't think people have realized yet.
How is your grandma holding up, Tony?
Have you heard from her?
My grandma?
She's good.
She's doing good.
Isn't she a Trump fan?
Oh, you know what's funny?
I didn't even think to, like, ask her about that.
I don't think she is, like, a Trump fan anymore.
I think she's kind of lost the Trump figure.
Didn't she, like, have a portrait of him, like, next to Jesus on her mantle at some point?
No, that was Reagan.
She had Reagan.
Okay.
Yeah, no.
They never got any memorabilia.
She never went that far.
I think she was doing the whole, like, well, he's our president now.
And so we have to respect him, and he's a Republican, so I double respect him.
I think she was doing that whole thing.
Okay, well, that's not very interesting for the show, so just go ahead and cut all that out.
Yeah, I don't know, the big question here is if he goes to prison, which I don't think he will.
I don't know what your guys' thoughts on that are.
Yeah, I don't see that happening.
I don't think people like him really go to prison, not real prison.
No, they're really upset about even the possibility of somebody like him going to prison.
Because if somebody like him goes to prison, well then it could happen to anybody.
It could happen to the 99%.
That would be nuts.
And then there's going to be a lot of people in prison now.
Now that this happened, there's going to be so many people in prison all of a sudden.
Gonna turn into a prison planet.
Yeah, I don't know.
You don't even know if these convictions are going to hold up under appeals.
I haven't looked at these very closely.
He was convicted of business crimes, and I think a lot of people have different ideas of what business crimes are and what they should be.
So it could be anyone's game, in my opinion, at this point.
I think it will stretch out probably past The actual election before we ever get any sort of resolution on this.
Um, but yeah, I do, I do like the idea of like the right wing becoming prison abolitionists, you know?
Like I imagine Oliver Anthony writing a song about how goddamn messed up the prison system is.
Yeah.
But then it also have like a line about how prison guards are just trying to make a living.
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
They're just doing their job because they gotta get their bread to feed their families.
It's a crime.
No one should be in prison.
I'm kind of surprised he hasn't.
Those guards are just trying to make a living.
He hasn't really hit us with a second single.
He hasn't really done anything.
He kind of fumbled the bag there.
Well, he did.
He had Christian songs that nobody gave a shit about.
He also performed classic Christian rock pop songs.
That, you know, weirdo Christians who would have followed Oliver Anthony into the woods would know, but nobody else cares about those, so they never went like viral or anything.
Well, I mean, they did go viral, but again, just like in evangelical circles.
It's because people just don't care about Jesus anymore.
That's right.
I, you know, of course we're going to get into reactions from this, and I just, I think My favorite reactions are from Trump himself, delivered straight to my email inbox.
Like this one I got from President Trump.
The subject line just says, I'm guilty!
That's awesome.
That's awesome.
It's funny because I was reading like the, you know, the contents of it.
I totally missed the header.
I'm guilty.
I'm guilty.
He admitted.
He got me.
He admitted.
And then the rest of the preview of the email you can see in this notification that I have on screen.
It says, this is not America.
I've just been convicted in a witch hunt trial.
And then it, you know, it goes on to say other stuff.
But I thought that was pretty funny.
Just Trump sending an email saying, I'm guilty.
Yeah.
Potential donors.
Interesting gambit.
I also loved this.
Oh, I'm clicking on the wrong thing here.
Also loved this one from President Trump.
Biden smiles sickly at my conviction.
And then the text of the preview says, this will make your blood boil.
Please open at your own risk.
Amazing.
Amazing.
Fucking incredible.
Biden smiles sickly at my conviction.
And then there it is, folks.
That smile, that goddamn smile is what started the whole thing.
What an asshole.
I can't believe he's over here just like, you know, reveling in someone's potential imprisonment.
Someone's actual, you know, actual plight.
This is disgusting.
We should all be upset about anyone going to prison and he's over here smiling.
It makes me sick.
Did we all see the video that this is referring to?
Did you see this, Tony?
No.
Oh, holy shit.
Yeah, President Biden really did smile a Crypt Keeper grin at Donald Trump.
He was giving some press conference and as he was walking away, somebody was like, Donald Trump is crying and pissing and shitting his pants and saying you got a huge W over him and it's your fault he got convicted of these.
What do you have to say to that?
And then he goes,
and like looks over his shoulder going like half a mile an hour uh and yeah a little grin spread spreads across his face and it's go sorry go ahead oh he gives off the energy in this video of like Willem Dafoe in platoon when he's like i'll carry it for you next time you have to ask i got you oh it's no it's amazing it's amazing like only only the modern right wing only like These Republicans could make Biden look cool.
Could make him look like callous and calculating.
I think we talked about this maybe on the Patreon app.
I don't remember.
We recorded these episodes backwards this week.
But it's just very funny that as a Republican, you have to be like, look at this demonic genius.
Yep.
Yeah, we did.
Yeah, we said it.
Look at him playing with us like a predator plays with its prey.
It's sickening.
It's disgusting.
Just batting us around.
Meanwhile, it looks like he just fucking survived like a soup waterboarding.
It's great, because like you said, in order for them to lose, it's not that Biden is so good, it's that he does have to have the aid of something supernatural like demons.
They're not losing to a regular person here, they're losing to a person that has a team of demons with them.
Yeah, that's not fair.
And that's understandable, because I can't beat demons.
I think we all see me lose to my demons all the time.
Damn, my demon's got hands.
You just have to be able to afford a suit that has like sigils embroidered on the inside of all of the cuffs that can keep you moving.
Yeah.
The body of this email, yeah, if you open the email, it's a gif of Biden smiling at you.
Awesome.
And then it says underneath in bright red, underlined, all caps, DO YOU SEE THAT SICK SMILE?
Do you see it?
And then it goes on, but in kind of like normal font, I guess.
That was Crooked Joe Biden's reaction when he was asked if I was a POLITICAL PRISONER!
Which is again in like bright red, all caps, and it's a highlight.
It's got the highlighter behind it.
This is like literally so your fucking great grandma's milky eyes can still pick up the gist of this email and give him $10.
He thinks this is funny!
Sick!
This is the best reaction.
I don't know who wrote this, but hats off to you.
This is real, folks.
This is a real email that he's reading from the Donald Trump campaign, from the Donald Trump office.
This is real.
They know their base, and I respect that.
It's perfectly formatted and, like, ADA compliant for, like, visually impaired.
Like, you know, like... Yeah, you could put this, laminate this, and put it up on the wall.
You could, like, this is, like, they meet the criteria that you have to meet if you are a website so that, like, anyone and everyone can read it, you know?
It's in, like, 20-point font, giant underlined red letters.
Inclusive, far more inclusive than anything I've seen from the Biden administration, I'll just say that.
Big facts, just saying, just saying.
Yeah, good, good stuff.
I hope to get more emails from Donald Trump where he's like, I don't know the subject line is just help me.
Biden's boot heel is crushing me like a worm.
I can't breathe.
So, I don't know.
Like, if you noticed, if you're on Twitter, the pundits on, you know, the right-wing pundits on Twitter are really popping off.
They're really, like, flexing on Elon's we-don't-ban-people-anymore platform.
And have kind of it really seems to me like subsumed on A lot of the revolutionary energy on the right.
I actively feel Facebook getting less deranged when I see Dan Bongaino tweet out, gonna be glorious watching the first outlaw president kick the electoral shit out of these commie pussies in November.
Bank on it, shit libs.
Laugh now and down your cocktails because we'll all be slurping up your delicious tears in a few months.
Cash that check and spend it.
It's going down.
Actually, you're going to have a mug that says, you know, that says shit lib commie tears.
That's I mean, yeah, I don't currently have a mug that says that mine just says commie tears.
I have another one says liberal tears.
But yeah, that would be great.
I it's it's just funny because like Tucker Carlson had something about, you know, the great like basically just tweeted out the great replacement theory.
A bunch of other people just like going full tilt.
Like, you know, Tim Pool just tweeting war.
Tim Pool's favorite thing to tweet.
Civil War!
War!
Like, I really do feel like they've taken over for a lot of the Facebook users and like a lot of the original sort of Deplorables or like whatever tea party boomer psychos like a lot of those guys died Like a lot of the genuine like first wave of boomer reaction to like the Obama administration a lot of them a lot of them are dead now but it also
Caught on so quickly that it did become like its own industry and it did become its own form of entertainment who could be most repressed really who could be most like ready to pick up arms and ready to form a guerrilla movement or whatever and I do think a lot of that energy just got like siphoned into this uh What's this like rumble sort of alternative conservative media sphere?
And then packaged and then sold back to him as entertainment.
Now I don't even have to post on Facebook because I pay to get the posts typed out for me by Dan Bongaino, you know?
Yeah, it's convenient.
I think it's a good service they're providing for people.
Um, this is, okay, I will, I do want to talk about these other, like, sort of big figures and their response to it, like Chaya Radchik, uh, Rayachik of Libs of TikTok.
Uh, she posted, my name is Chaya Raychik.
I live in the USA.
American flag emoji.
Why did she type all this?
I live in the USA.
American flag emoji.
Line break.
And I will be voting for a convicted felon this November.
Line break.
You?
And then she included a photo of herself that I think she wants guys to save in their phone.
This is the best photo I've seen of her.
Is she, so she is, she's, uh, she's libs, you know, or libs of TikTok.
She's anti, she's not, she's like absolutely straight, right?
I think she has to be.
Right.
She's not allowed to be gay.
Yeah.
I, I don't, I didn't see a pride post from her.
I'll tell you that much.
I'm just just curious.
OK, but I love this tack that a lot of people are doing.
They're like, actually, him getting convicted of 34 felonies is the best thing that could happen to him before his presidential election.
Like, I'm sorry, like it does.
It is funny that it happened.
It does get him attention.
It does like bolster his narrative to some degree that he's being oppressed or that he's being targeted or whatever.
I don't think it moves the needle that much for him.
I think it's probably a net negative, but by like a couple points, if that, you know, like the reason the other than his politics, other than Trump's politics, or like even other than his like distasteful personality quirks, like the way he talks about women or whatever.
I think most people didn't like him because like they view him as a con man and a crook and everything your liberal grandpa says about him.
Yeah, that's like his I mean even the right wing is like yeah, but he's our con man.
He's our crook, you know, and so this just like reinforces that initial.
The initial opinion, I think a lot of people already had about him to begin with, and it only excites the people who are already in the bag for him, no matter what.
There's a bunch of pretend libertarians who are like, well, since the new libertarian presidential candidate wants open borders and is a communist, I guess I'm going to have to hold my nose and vote for Trump for the third time.
Sorry, it's going to be tough.
I'm going to have to do it.
Yeah, I don't think it matters, but it is funny to see people do this.
Like, wow, I'm going to vote even harder now.
Like, you sound like a Democrat.
Sorry, no offense to Democrats, but you sound like a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat booster, you know?
Vote as hard as you can this November.
Yeah, this person, Brianna Morello, Says women love bad boys.
The female vote is swinging Trump's way in November.
I'm excited to vote for a felon.
I love this.
Of course, I'm hearing all this and all I'm really hearing is reaffirmation of racism.
You guys were ready to waterboard Obama over a hypothetically fake birth certificate, but this guy is an outlaw.
He's an outlaw, he's a badass, and I'm actually horny for him.
You become cool when you don't get away with the crime.
Yes.
I like the criminals who got prosecuted.
I think it's more badass because it shows you stepped up and you turned yourself in.
You're not afraid of the system because the courts back you up.
I think all criminals should be as brave and cool as Donald Trump and go turn themselves in at their local police office.
Yeah, absolutely.
Honestly, especially if you're a lonely criminal because women are going to love it.
I love this.
I love the exclamation.
I'm excited to vote for a felon.
This is like male feminist.
I'm excited to vote for a woman.
Well behaved men.
Rarely.
Become president, Alex.
I have that sticker on my toolbox.
Do you love bad boys?
Is that part true?
I love men who have no respect for the strictures of the law.
Obviously she loves bad boys, Alex.
She's the one who gave me this scar.
You look soft, I need you to have this.
We were LARPing.
So yeah, Brianna Morrell, she's like, I don't know, she's some podcaster.
She's got way more followers than we do.
She's like got 180,000 followers on Twitter or something like that.
And here's an example of who's following her, replying to her tweet.
Women love bad boys.
Frank Rocco.
Justino says January 6th misdemeanor, but I'm not complaining.
And then put a photo of his fucking DOC ID card, his Department of Corrections prison ID card with him and his fucking his mugshot and his name on it.
It includes his like inmate ID so you know if you want to write him a letter.
That's kind of smart that was kind of a genius move and he doesn't look terrible in the picture it's not a good photo but he like doesn't look like this might work for him.
I know whoever was photographing him knew what they were doing when they gave him about one-fifth headspace room above his head in the in the in the little square.
Yeah, that's not a good look.
He did cleverly not take a picture of like the height portion of the ID card.
They did him dirty by leaving, like, seven or eight inches above his head.
Like, this is where a normal man would fill up this area, but no, I'm just kidding.
I'm just saying, like, I can't help but think that, you know?
Yeah.
It's why I'm always telling Tony, I mean, you're framed really well right now, you know, but I just, I keep an eye on that for you.
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
You always tell me, like, people are gonna think you're a short king, and that's not, you're actually, you can't do that.
That's for short kings.
You can't take their thing.
Just general reactions to this, to Trump's convictions on Facebook.
Let's get back to Facebook here.
Steve Goodman posted, let's go Brandon.
Feels like 9-11 all over again.
And then included a photo of 9-11.
Yeah, remember that day where a lot of people died and it caused a lot more people to die?
This is that.
For me at least, that's how I feel about things in the world.
You think Iraq was bad?
You'd wait until the Civil War.
Yeah, this is pretty cool.
I was like, you know, wow, I'm kind of surprised Trump got convicted.
Like, that's kind of crazy.
Now that I know it's 9-11 for the Let's Go Brandon Facebook group, I'm like, wow, maybe, maybe this is better than even I thought.
Yeah, maybe, maybe this is, yeah, this is W. Maybe this might be a new holiday for us.
Brian Crissin posted to the Let's Go Brandon Facebook group, 74 million Americans right now, and it's a lion growling.
It's a lion snarling close up at the camera, but it looks almost like it's maybe laying on its side originally, but then they tilted it straight up so that it looks like it's looking straight on at you, if that makes sense.
Also, it's funny because it's also like it's a lioness.
Yeah, it's a lady lion.
Which I don't know if they're doing that on purpose.
But I do love it.
This is just like, yeah, this is a lion who's laying down on its side.
Clearly not like just snarling, but not really that ready to pounce or do anything.
It's probably like wincing because one side of its whiskers are braced against the ground.
Yeah.
It's like curling.
But it's just funny because it's 74 million Americans right now.
And just like picture Brian going... It's also in like kind of like the Jack Daniels font or like Evan Williams font or something.
Yeah, like the wanted poster font.
Yeah, who's got that?
Shitty whiskey font.
Went to 1001freefonts.com.
I liked this response.
This one made me think.
Pat Rhodes in the Let's Go Brandon Facebook group posted, someone good at math, what is the probability of 12 people agreeing on 34 issues?
I mean, when you have that much evidence and that many like, you know, recordings of him saying he did things and things like that, probably pretty high, actually.
I don't think you could get 12 people to agree on where to go to lunch.
Well, let alone convicted of highly complex business slash election fraud where a guy said, yes, I gave her money.
It was good for my campaign and what he's guilty.
Oh, that's crazy.
That's crazy.
No, I do like the idea.
Somebody like finding out what unanimous and a unanimous jury is.
How could that possibly work?
What are they trying to pull here?
This can only be the work of the Deep State.
There's no other way for this to work.
This is disgusting.
What do they have on these jurors?
It sounds a little fishy to me.
12 different people really came to the same conclusion.
I think it's obviously fake and we should just abolish the unanimous jury altogether.
Because we should still be able to convict people even if only like 6 of them, or 7 of them rather, think that they're guilty in my opinion.
Because you're never going to get to 12.
Yeah, that seems impossible.
I don't believe it.
But yeah, I think we need to get a little loose on that.
Uh, back to Twitter here for some lib responses.
I, I, you know, we talked about like what our parents or, you know, what our family, I don't know.
You're, Ani, we didn't talk about, uh, Karen, your mom.
How did, have you talked to her about Trump yet?
I haven't talked to her yet.
I mean, I bet.
I bet she's stoked.
I bet she's happy.
I bet she's stoked.
I bet, I mean, I'm sure that through texting with me she's probably learned to like be a little more reserved with the level of hope she shows in US institutions.
Successfully crushed my mother's spirit.
A little bit.
You're just gonna ruin it.
But yeah, I'm sure she's riding a little high.
You got to enjoy it.
You got to take it when you can.
Because again, who knows if this is going to get thrown out or he's probably not going to do prison time at all.
So yeah, you got to take it where you can.
I saw some, yeah, I saw some liberal responses, liberal reactions to this, like somebody made a meme of Hillary Clinton visiting Donald Trump in jail, like Jodie Foster visiting Hannibal Lecter, and she had, I think, a folder or a binder with her, and she says, here, Donald, I brought you some emails to read.
That's great.
I love that.
That's so good.
They better not let her near him in the prison.
Because you know what happens if a Clinton gets into a prison.
Yeah.
Oof.
It's over.
Get Clinton cited.
This is maybe one of my favorites that I saw from Meredith.
So a lot of people were talking about they were going to boycott New York, because New York is, of course, the state that prosecuted Trump in this trial.
Meredith, I don't know who put this in my feed.
This just like it got it somehow got into my Twitter feed.
But Meredith... Oh, that's because I follow Meredith.
That's why.
Huh.
I wonder.
I wonder why.
I'm just kidding, that was... It's just like a normal profile picture.
This is a regular white woman.
I just like that you zoomed in.
Uh, Meredith says, Boycott New York.
New York is Gen X if Gen X was a state.
And I've said this a lot.
I've said this a lot about New York.
If Gen X were a state, it would be New York City.
State.
You think so?
Yeah, I mean it's the most... I mean that's where CBGB was, right?
They're the last generation to wear this shirt, I think.
So I think that makes sense.
Can't wear it anymore.
This goes on.
They don't give a shit.
This is a state that was attacked by terrorists and they can and will still kick your ass.
Uh, this got 1,000 likes, so maybe not quite what she was hoping for with this, like, uh, hey, New York, we're alright, we're crazy city, but we stick together, right?
Uh, didn't quite grab the attention of New York, maybe, like, uh, she wanted, but yeah, no, um...
They don't... New York, don't give a fuck.
You could be doing a terrorist attack right in front of them and they'll be like, seen it.
Oh, this is all you got?
This is all you got?
You know the bar's pretty high around these parts.
Did you know I watched the Challenger explosion on TV?
Gonna have to give me a bit tougher than this, alright?
I like how people do think that New York, the state, is just New York City.
Like the whole thing is just New York City.
And not just New York City, the whole thing is like Times Square.
Like the whole state is Times Square.
Not me, I've seen Place Beyond the Pines.
So I know there's another part of New York.
Yeah, hell yeah.
Yeah, don't fuck with New York, baby.
New York, they didn't have caller ID.
And they drank from the hose?
And they didn't give a fuck?
They went to a club before they were 18?
Yep.
Yep.
You don't wanna fuck with New York.
No.
I like the idea that fighting is the natural response to a boycott in this tweet.
I like to say, this is a state that was attacked by terrorists and they can and will still kick your ass.
When has New York kicked the ass of anybody?
Like, what does she mean?
Like, America kicked the ass of a lot of people throughout the ages, to be sure.
But, like, what has New York done?
Like, New York got, I'm sorry, got pretty roundly defeated in 9-11.
Right?
You know what I'm saying?
Of course everybody came together and showed their strength and all that.
But I don't think you want to highlight that they got owned by terrorists.
Probably not a good look.
Yeah, probably not a good look.
That's not what you want to be remembered for.
I bet they do kind of hate that.
People don't think pizza right away, they do just think 9-11.
Then she goes on.
Hey, New Yorkers... I think Tupac and Biggie would be so proud of us.
Who would have thought that an orange convicted felon could be the thing that would bring New York and Los Angeles together in harmony?
Our cities don't do that.
Referencing like the 1990s east coast west coast rat beef and how it's finally we're finally we have finally come together yeah because you know we we threw we threw Trump in jail we're throwing we're throwing we're throwing away the key which is like again not happening yet that's not a thing that people are that's we haven't seen that come to fruition yet but yeah no I I did notice that um uh the the gang violence is actually just down period since this happened
They've just been communing and coming around and just like, we're sharing in that.
There's been a ceasefire amongst the gang members to acknowledge and really just savor this time together as a community.
We finally reached a one state solution.
I just, I love Meredith.
Hey New Yorkers, I think Tupac and Biggie, literally like those are the two rappers she knows about, right?
Yeah, it has to be.
Um, yeah.
Uh, but yeah, back to Facebook.
Uh, this, this is just phenomenal.
Let me see where we're at on time here.
Okay.
All right, so I found this post in the Let's Go Brandon, uh, Facebook group again, just popping off.
Uh, Brian Christen posted, So, are we wearing camo or what?
Sorry, this will be my first civil war.
And this is like a kind of a cheeky way to post about how you want a civil war.
Yeah.
It's kind of like a sassy way to do it.
I appreciate it.
Yeah.
What are we wearing?
What are we wearing for the civil war?
I love this.
What's the dress code?
Teresa Walke comments Biden shirts.
Uh, so she means that you would pretend to be your enemy combatant by wearing a shirt with, yeah, the president's face on it.
Uh, which is how everybody on the left is gonna be dressed.
Uh, and then I guess you would kill them all in their sleep or something?
Yeah, I think that's just how you get killed by what would end up being friendly fire in the end.
Yeah, you're gonna get shot by a guy wearing, like, Rhodesian camo.
Yeah.
A lot of people had this idea.
Kevin Durham says, I'm wearing rainbow colors and blue hair.
They'll never see it coming.
It's got 22 laugh reacts.
Debbie says, don't forget your mask.
And like, wouldn't that be such a joke if you were wearing some sort of face protection during a guerrilla warfare or something?
That'd be crazy.
Not if you went wild.
If you obscured your face.
Yeah, why would you do that?
I do like the idea of seeing, because you know, you can always see like an undercover cop.
You just always know they're an undercover cop.
I like just knowing it's undercover cops still, even though they're wearing like a rainbow shirt and dyed blue hair.
But you can, but they still have like a cell phone holster.
They've dyed their mustache-less goatee blue.
They didn't get new sunglasses.
They're still wearing the same sunglasses that we just know that you're a cop.
The same, like, proper Oakley.
Their pride hat does have the little cutout for the Oakleys and the side of the brim.
Yep, yep.
It has the fish hook on the bill.
Ingrid Scott says, send the alerts in cursive and give them shoes with laces.
Done.
This has 14 laugh reacts.
So send the alerts in cursive, guys.
So.
We'll send all the alerts for all the notifications about the Civil War, but we'll do it in cursive.
And so then everybody will look at their phone to know what to do at their next move in the war.
Because I mean, communication is so important during wartime.
It's half the battle.
And they won't even know.
I have no idea.
They'll be none the wiser.
It'll be right in front of their face.
They're gonna make a... It's gonna be like... What is that?
Tinker, Soldier, Spy?
Yeah.
It's gonna be that, but it's about deciphering cursive.
Yeah, it'll be like Windtalkers, but you just gotta get a regular 65-year-old.
It could be any race, but... Oh, and it also will be Nicolas Cage.
Nicolas Cage will be playing that person.
You're saying that's an R, but it's clearly too whimsical to just be an R. They must mean something else.
Tinker, tailor, soldier, cursive writer.
And then shoes with laces.
This is not something I'm familiar with.
I'm not familiar with this meme that everybody, millennials wear slip-ons now because they can't even tie their shoelaces.
Wow, that's crazy.
Do you think this is a shot at Crocs?
It's probably a shot at Crocs and all the sandals and other like slip-on shoes that we get, which are shaming us as a culture.
It's the world's, frankly, it's the world's greatest humiliation ritual that none of these shoes have laces on them anymore.
And you're not going to do anything about it, are you?
You're just going to sit there.
You're not going to pick up a gun.
You're not going to go defend what's yours because you're a coward.
Also, I like the idea that maybe, what if that is true, and all the liberals do have slip-ons or, you know, laceless shoes, and then all of the, you know, the MAGA folks are tripping over their shoelaces.
That would be ironic.
That would be something.
We should send out little, you know, behind enemy lines, little guys to go out there and loosen all their shoelaces.
Even tie him together, even tie him so he can trip.
Also, I mean, close your eyes and picture a guy, just a guy, doesn't matter what he looks like really, a guy, he's wearing Velcro shoes, and I'll say he's over the age of 40, maybe the age of 30.
Where do you think he's voting?
Uh, yeah, I think he's voting straight R. Yeah, yeah.
I think he's, what, probably like 60 years old?
Wearing a tracksuit of some kind?
Yeah, exactly.
I didn't know that was a thing.
I guess it's just that they're so dumb they can't tie their shoelaces.
Yeah, like there's probably a meme she saw of AOC having Velcro shoes.
Wearing like a cute pair of sock-a-knees or something.
It's funny because I can't really picture many other politicians, especially women, with sneakers, but I've seen her in sneakers.
Yeah, I don't know.
This was my favorite response.
Brian Woods, again, the question was, so what are we wearing?
What are we wearing to the Civil War, guys?
Brian Woods says, I say we dress just like my nephew in clean house!
And then he's included a photo of his nephew, which I have here, and I will just enlarge for everybody.
Awesome.
yeah hell yeah 2000s era like desert camo utilikilt he's wearing he's wearing yeah like a real tree uh chest you know uh plate carrier but then it's over is this like the texas foot what flag is this yeah that's a texas flag texas Flag Hawaiian shirt.
Uh, yeah.
Carrying is his rifle.
Uh, he does have the camo tactical and then boots.
And then he's also wearing his helmet.
You can't put your helmet on in this photo, man.
That's like, I'm sorry.
Like you only look like, and he's got a mustache.
It's just, you only look like fucking officer Favre from super troopers here.
Like that's all that's going to happen.
And then I love also the sleeve that just cuts off hard at the wrist.
Yeah, oh man.
I mean his nephew's a fucking badass is what we're trying to say here.
Let's dress up like my nephew!
Clean house!
Kill some libs and get some tail!
I do love that he was like, he's wearing a kilt, you know, it's a skirt.
And he was like, no, this is one that people are gonna love this.
And like, you know who you're talking to, right?
You know who your demographic is.
They're gonna, they're gonna not like the skirt, brother.
I don't think anybody gave him shit for the skirt.
I think, uh, I think if it's, if it goes below your knees, like it's people, people know it's racist.
It's racist against white people.
If you talk about his skirt or like, uh, You know, what's-his-name-the-singer-of-the-doors, or like Steven Tyler.
If you talk about any of those guys' dresses, well, you're just the ignorant one.
Yeah, that's your fault.
Yeah, you don't understand culture.
So I think we got a little time here.
I have some more examples of what we're talking about here today.
Like this.
This was a meme that was going around.
Douglas McGregor posted it.
It says, I am more MAGA now than ever!
And it says like, you know, hundreds of likes on it.
I think it's just like, how?
How are you more MAGA now than ever before?
It seems like this has utterly consumed your life for the last eight years.
Regardless, it doesn't, I mean, like maybe it's reassuring to think like, wow, I wasn't all the way crazy before.
I still have levels.
I can ratchet it up.
That's probably a fairly empowering feeling to have.
But yeah, people were commenting on this, like Terry, who says, how ironic that on the day they railroad President Trump, my husband and I received our new hats.
We are definitely more MAGA than ever before.
I wouldn't have thought possible.
Hashtag Trump 2024.
Save America, American flag emoji.
And then she has included a photo of her two new hats.
One of them just says MAGA and like giant embroidered lettering that's like almost up to the crown of the hat.
The other one says ultra MAGA in yellow on a red background.
Um, and I don't, it doesn't like, you were already buying this stuff.
It doesn't really help your argument.
Well, now that he's convicted, I'm Ultramag.
No, you were already Ultramag.
We have the receipts, literally.
You bought it before the conviction.
What does this logo look like to you, Tony?
The Ultra Maga, the way it's stylized, like the U and L are bigger in Ultra.
It reminds me of like, I don't know, like you would see this on, you know, an energy drink or like maybe a CrossFit t-shirt or something where like an eSports team would have this as their logo.
You know what it reminds me of?
It reminds me of those uh remember that like that show from the 90s that was like a competitive ninja show?
Yeah.
It reminds me of ninjas for some reason.
It looks like.
I don't know it's like the sharpness and the angles of of the of the letters that are being exaggerated.
It looks like a condom wrapper to me.
It looks like the typeface on the like Ultra Magnum condom wrappers or whatever.
I don't think they got a problem with eliciting that response from you.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
The last thing I think we'll talk about, this was pretty funny, so did everybody see the meme going around that was Uh oh yeah well Jesus was also convicted of 34 felonies uh and I still and I'll still vote for him uh that was a very popular meme that people were sharing and it was so popular I'm trying to get him up on screen here please just do it for me it would be so so cool uh
Got so popular that Jerry Matthews had to post, enough with the quote, Jesus was convicted meme.
At least five people have posted it.
Now post something original, please.
This is on the day of the conviction.
He had already seen it a million fucking times in the same group.
And they all probably got it, got the meme from the Let's Go Brandon group, saved it to the computer, and then posted it again into the Let's Go Brandon group.
Yeah, absolutely.
But I really loved that.
Just enough.
Enough already.
Enough with this shit.
The responses to him were fantastic.
James and Tammy Field says, I'm a Trump supporter all the way, but that meme is blasphemy.
How the heck do you compare Jesus with any man?
Stop adding to the scenario that caused people to call Trump supports a cult.
Good point, I think.
Yeah, valid.
If I read that correctly, she was making a good point, or they, James and Tammy, were making a good point.
You weren't like properly gendering them, it's just a joint account.
Yeah, James and Tammy.
Yeah.
They're really focused on religion now in this half of their relationship.
I think they were, Bob, maybe perhaps both redeemed through the church, if you catch my drift here.
Brandy says, or you could just scroll on by and not get your panties in a bunch over a fucking meme.
Weak ass.
The meme was, we were just being edgy, comparing him to, sorry you got triggered by us making an edgy, I don't know, like extreme, extreme joke.
Sorry you can't handle satire.
Yeah.
Get tough, weak-ass.
Jerry Matthews is the OP, right?
He's the guy saying, stop posting this?
Yes.
That's amazing.
Leave the Christians alone, man.
Let them call the President their God, bro.
It's not hurting you.
It's fine.
Is he one of the people coming as a Christian?
No, the people in response was coming as a Christian.
He was just saying it's just not good.
Get a new thing to say.
Yeah, I'll share one more here.
It was pretty good.
Yeah, so this one was fascinating.
Also in the Let's Go Brandon Facebook group, Harold Hecuba, who's a top poster in this group, Right, Harold Hecuba shared this tweet into the Facebook group.
The tweet is by the Divided States of America and the Divided States of America on Axe has shared like an image that says, if throwing Donald Trump in jail starts a second civil war, we'll just have to win that one too.
I love that.
And the Divided States of America has captioned this post with, Are you with me?
And then five second to darkest brown raised hand emojis.
I love that.
Sorry, not even five, but yes, seven.
And Harold Hecuba shared this into the Facebook group, and I had to go because I had this screenshot that I saw and I was like, OK, this is crazy.
I can't even figure out what's going on here, but I need to save it.
But I didn't have like the reactions to what he posted.
And so I went back and double checked.
All of them were like likes and loves.
Oh, yeah.
So he posted this thinking it was a pro Trump meme.
Mm hmm.
That says, if throwing Donald Trump in jail starts a second civil war, we'll just have to win that one too.
So like, from his perspective, the right wing is saying, hey, if throwing Trump in prison starts a second civil war, which already your message was like, wait, what are you trying to say?
Are you trying to say that you will start a second civil war if Donald Trump, you know what I mean?
But yeah, that part aside starts a second civil war.
We'll just have to win that one too.
So, so you also have like Rhett connected.
Being part of the North as a right winger, right?
Because the conservatives were the Democrat, the South were the Democrats in that, right?
That must be what it is because I could say two is really funny.
So you're like bragging about how as the right wing you're also going to kick some ass in this Civil War.
You're also going to win this one.
It's just incredible.
I don't know what else to say about it.
Even if I'm reconnecting it, that was still the American government fighting people that were seceding.
But now you were fighting against the American government who's throwing him in jail.
So are you sure you're winning it too?
Honestly, the two is what fucks everything up for him.
Just don't say that part.
The two makes it very confusing.
Just say you're going to win that one.
Yeah, well, wow, what a good time.
I hope everybody had a lot of fun.
We will, I'm sure, have more to say on this topic in the coming weeks.

Uh, Ski-Boo loves the Tony Zinn era, which we are definitely gonna have to, uh, we're gonna have to revisit because Congressman Curley is doing some stuff.
Uh, he's mainly doing some stuff around Washington, D.C., but I am hoping that Tony Zinn has recorded himself as Congressman Curley doing his musical traveling road show about how messed up these American politics are, you know?
Wait, are they talking about Tony Zinn or are they talking about me using Zinns?
Oh, hmm.
Are you using Zinns?
I was unaware.
Yeah, yeah, I joke about it all the time now.
Yeah, I dabble in zins.
I'm not like a real user, like I'm not, I don't got a problem yet.
I'm using one right now, but that's aside from the point.
I'm glad you took this opportunity not to promote the content that he was actually talking about, but to... I don't know, I think you... ...sidetracked into your zins.
That's good too.
I think they're saying that I'm more locked in than ever.
For sure, okay.
And that's what they're talking about.
They're talking about the Tony Zinn era, as in, I'm popping zins, I'm locked in, I'm more focused than ever.
I don't think we've ever discussed your zins on the show.
I don't know if I've ever heard that.
Real heads, no.
Real heads, no.
I'm happy that we're now in the Tony Zinn era.
I didn't know it, but I'm glad we're here.
