Holy night, the stars are brightly shining. | |
| It is the night of the dear Savior's birth. | ||
| Long may the world in sin and error piding, till he appeared and the soul felt its word. | ||
| A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices, for yonder breaks a new and glorious war. | ||
| Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices, O night divine, O night when Christ was born. | ||
| O night, O night divine. | ||
| Holy night, O night divine! | ||
| So let my light of the stars, sweetly gleaming, here came the wiser The King of kings laid us in lowly manger, in all our trials born to be our friend. | ||
| Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices, O night divine, O night when Christ was born. | ||
| O night, O holy night, O night divine. | ||
| Silver bells, it's Christmas time in the city. | ||
| And then nowadays, I am so upset that the things we did and the things we fought for and the boys that died for it. | ||
| it's all gone down the drain. | ||
| Our country's gone to hell in a handbasket. | ||
| We haven't got the country we had when I was raised. | ||
| Not at all. | ||
| Nobody will have the fun I have. | ||
| Nobody will have the opportunity I have. | ||
| It's just not the same. | ||
| Jesus is the way and the life and the King of Israel. | ||
| We just lead with love. | ||
| We're really at a crossroads here. | ||
| Look around you. | ||
| It's drag queens in schools. | ||
| It's 18-year-olds joining OnlyFans. | ||
| It's the filth on TikTok. | ||
| It's this country not having a border. | ||
| It's the idea that our kids and we, this generation, are never going to own anything. | ||
| Think about it. | ||
| Never making an income to support a family. | ||
| Never being able to have a family. | ||
| People being corrupted before they're even a teenager by things on their phone. | ||
| Sick addiction to technology. | ||
| The future is so bleak, but that has changed the calculation. | ||
|

|
God is using me. | |
| He's breaking me down, removing all of the, you know, richest person, all of this, so I can serve him. | ||
| I think they've been extremely unfair to you. | ||
| Who is they, though? | ||
| We can't tell you who they is, can we? | ||
| There is no future if we do nothing now. | ||
| There is nothing to lose. | ||
| People that are scrambling, trying to protect their ever-shrinking share of what they have are foolish. | ||
| It's all going. | ||
| It's all going away. | ||
| This country is being ripped apart and raped and looted. | ||
| We're being slowly poisoned and, in some cases, quickly murdered and assassinated. | ||
| And we're killing ourselves every day, inadvertently, with the kinds of things that we eat and breathe and drink and see. | ||
| People have got to start to radically begin to obey their conscience and tell the truth and do the right thing. | ||
| People have got to start to get courageous. | ||
| And this is the time for everybody to turn and look to God And to pray and to ask for strength and to ask for wisdom to get through this time and to transform and sanctify this country. | ||
| And the alternative is that there will be no country. | ||
| Is it really only as big as low gas prices? | ||
| Is it really only so big as bringing inflation and gas prices and the corporate tax rate back down? | ||
| It's not about waiting for someone to come in and change the policy and make it better. | ||
| It's a personal decision that we all have to make to become soldiers of Christ. | ||

I want to be a dictator. | |
| And you know why I want to be a dictator? | ||
| Because I want a wall, right? | ||
| I want a wall, and I want to drill, drill, drill. | ||
| My own narrative is not one of some sudden, looming bolt of lightning out of the blue. | ||
| It was a slow and steady, unrelenting stream of blips and blinks, glimmers and glares, low beams and high beams of light, some of which I did not want to see. | ||
| And then finally, a point of no return reckoning. | ||
|

|
Why are you called Mommy Malcolm? | |
| I think it was because I fiercely came out during the Griper Wars of 2019 when so many of these brave young men were on college campuses challenging the likes of Zio Schill Dan Crenshaw, questioning him about his undying loyalty and, of course, defending Nick Fuentes and so many of the stars of the burgeoning America First movement. | ||
|
unidentified
|
through an increasing amount of activism are really going to ensure the future America is a nation of believers, dreamers, and strivers that is being led by a group of censors, critics, and cynics. | |
| These interests have rigged our political and economic system for their exclusive benefit. | ||
| Believe me, it's for their benefit. | ||
| My message is that things have to change, and they have to change right now. | ||
| My sole and exclusive mission is to go to work for you. | ||
| It's time to deliver a victory for the American people. | ||
| We don't win anymore, but we are going to start winning again. | ||
| So to every parent who dreams for their child, and every child who dreams for their future, I say these words to you tonight. | ||
| I am with you, I will fight for you, and I will win for you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm not supposed to be here tonight. | |
| I'm supposed to be here. | ||

|
I want this show for myself. | |
| I'm doing drugs in our house. | ||
| My voice is nothing but I scream in the fire. | ||
| I stretch my hair but my cup just goes up. | ||
| I'm going to go to the bathroom. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| O come, O come, Emmanuel, Emmanuel, to you. | ||
| To free your captive Israel That mourns in lonely exile here Until the Son of Rejoice, | ||
| O Israel To you shall come, Emmanuel Captivum | ||

| I'm like, yeah, it is. | ||

I do this shit for my brothers. | |
| We do this shit for each other. | ||
| Let's go. | ||
| The courageous fallen! | ||
| The anguished fallen! | ||
| Their lives have meaning because we, the living, refuse to forget them! | ||
| And as we ride to certain death, we trust our successors to do the same for us! | ||
| Because my soldiers do not buckle or yield when faced with the cruelty of this world! | ||
| My soldiers push forward! | ||
| My soldiers scream out! | ||
| My soldiers reach! | ||
| You can't go back to the past. | ||
| That's what people always say, isn't it? | ||
|
unidentified
|
They say, can we really go back? | |
| And the answer is, whether you're conservative or liberal, right when you're left-wing, the answer is no. | ||
| We're never going back. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's gone. | |
| It's gone. | ||
| All of that is gone. | ||
| But I would call myself something like a Christian futurist instead. | ||
| Because Jesus Christ was our past before any of us were born or conceived. | ||
| Jesus Christ is our present now. | ||
| And Jesus Christ is our future after we die on earth. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We want this century to be the most Christian century in the history of planet earth. | |
| Come on. | ||
| We love everybody. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And we want people to confirm really more than anybody. | |
| But this country can no longer be held hostage by a small minority that doesn't believe in real people. | ||
| The mission of our movement is to make this country a Christian country. | ||
| The mission is to create a Christian future in our time. | ||
| The only way we're going to do it is not by infiltrating, not by subverting, not by lying, which is what a lot of people do. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The only way that we're going to make this happen is with the boldness of a real Christian. | |
| It's the only way. | ||
| We have got to be willing to die for Jesus Christ. | ||
| We have to want it more than they do. | ||
| because if there are thousands and millions and tens of millions and hundreds of millions of Christians ready to meet their final destiny, then nothing can stop us and nothing will. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| This night we pray our lives will show history we have. | ||
| Each child still knows this night. | ||
| We pray our lives will show this dream he had. | ||
| His strong still knows this night only where our hearts here show. | ||
| His sweet hand, his strong still does. | ||
| His strong still does. | ||
| On his side, on his side, on his merry Christmas night. on his merry Christmas night. | ||

| A pair of hop-along boots and a pistol that shoots is the wish of Barney and Ben. | ||
| Dozzle will talk and we'll go for a walk is the hope of Janice and Jen. | ||
| And mom and dad can hardly wait for school to start again. | ||
| It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas everywhere you go. | ||
| There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well. | ||
| The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow. | ||
| It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. | ||
| Soon the bells will start. | ||
| And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing right within your heart. | ||
| It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. | ||

Because it's the outsiders who change the world and who make a real and lasting difference. | |
| Nothing worth doing ever came easy. | ||
| Treat the word impossible As nothing more than motivation. | ||
| The future belongs to the people who follow their heart no matter what the critics say. | ||

We must always remember that we share one home and one glorious destiny. | |

| I heard the bells on Christmas Day Their old familiar carols play And mild and sweet their songs repeat Of peace on earth, | ||
| goodwill to men And the bells are ringing Like a choir they're singing In my heart I hear them Peace on earth, | ||
| goodwill to men And in despair I bowed my There is no peace on earth, I say. | ||
| For hate is strong and marks the song Of peace on earth, goodwill to men But the bells ring in Like a choir singing Does anybody hear this? | ||
| For hate is strong and marks Like a choir singing Does anybody hear this? | ||
| He's taller than a little to man Then ring the bells, no loud and deep God is not dead nor does he sleep The wrong shall fail, the right prevail | ||
| The peace on earth, good will to man Then ring the singing on its way The world revolved from night to day | ||
| A voice, a chime, a chant of life The peace on earth, good will to man And the bell bell ringing Do you hear the bells ringing? | ||
| Like a choir that's the end With our hearts we'll hear them Peace on earth, good will to man Do you hear the bells ringing? | ||

| Like the angels singing. | ||
| Open up your heart and hear it. | ||

| Years from now, some of them may look back and ask themselves whether they've made the right choice, whether they've made the most of the opportunities they've been given. | ||
| Together we have the same mission. | ||
| Over the course of your life, You will find that things are not always fair. | ||
| You will find that things happen to you that you do not deserve and that are not always warranted. | ||
| But you have to put your head down and fight, fight, fight. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Never, ever, ever give up. | |
| Don't give in, don't back down, and never stop doing what you know is right. | ||
| Nothing worth doing ever, ever, ever came easy. | ||
| And the more righteous you fight, the more opposition that you will face. | ||
| In your hearts are inscribed the values of service, sacrifice, and devotion. | ||
| Now you must go forth into the world and turn your hopes and dreams into action. | ||
| America has always been the land of dreams because America is a nation of true believers. | ||
| When the pilgrims landed, At Plymouth, they prayed. | ||
| When the founders wrote the Declaration of Independence, they invoked our Creator four times. | ||
| Because in America, we don't worship government, we worship God. | ||
| It is why our currency proudly declares, in God we trust. | ||
| And it's why we proudly proclaim that we are one nation under God. | ||
| The story of America is the story of an adventure that began with deep faith, big dreams, and humble beginnings. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The next generation of American leaders. | |
| Never, ever give up. | ||
| There'll be times in your life you'll want to quit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Never quit. | |
| Never stop fighting for what you believe in and for the people who care about you. | ||
| Carry yourself with dignity and pride. | ||
| Demand the best from yourself. | ||
| The more people tell you it's not possible, That it can't be done the more you should be absolutely determined to prove them wrong. | ||
| Treat the word impossible as nothing more than motivation. | ||
| Relish the opportunity to be an outsider the more that a broken system tells you that you're wrong. | ||
| The more certain you should be that you must keep pushing ahead. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You must keep pushing forward. | |
| And always have the courage to be yourself. | ||
| America is better when people put their faith into action. | ||
| Pray to God. | ||
| And follow his teachings. | ||
| Today, each of you begins a new chapter as well. | ||
| When your story goes from here, it will be defined by your vision, your perseverance, and your grit You will build a future where we have the courage to chase our dreams no matter what the cynics and the doubters have to say. | ||
| You will have the confidence to speak the hopes in your hearts and to express the love that stirs your souls. | ||
| As long as you have pride in your beliefs, courage in your convictions, and faith in God, Then you will not fail. | ||
| But as long as America remains true to its values, loyal to its citizens, and devoted to its creator, then our best days are yet to come. | ||

Thank you so much, everybody. | |
| Can I just say, are you trusting Brian? | ||
| Our movement is about replacing a failed and corrupt political establishment with a new government controlled by you, the American people. | ||
| The Washington establishment and the financial and media corporations that fund it exist for only one reason, to protect and enrich itself. | ||
| The establishment has trillions of dollars at stake in this election. | ||
| For those who control the levers of power in Washington and for the global special interest, they partner with these people that don't have your good in mind. | ||
| Our campaign represents a true existential threat like they haven't seen before. | ||
| This is not simply another four-year election. | ||
| This is a crossroads in the history of our civilization that will determine whether or not we the people reclaim control over our government. | ||
| The political establishment That is trying to stop us is the same group responsible for our disastrous trade deals, massive illegal immigration, and economic and foreign policies that have bled our country dry. | ||
| The political establishment has brought about the destruction of our factories and our jobs as they flee to Mexico, China, and other countries all around the world. | ||
| It's a global power structure that is responsible for the economic decisions that have robbed our working class, stripped our country of its wealth, and put that money into the pockets of a handful of large corporations and political entities. | ||
| This is a struggle for the survival of our nation and this will be our last chance to save it. | ||
| This election will determine whether we're a free nation or whether we have only the illusion of democracy but are in fact controlled by a small handful of global special interests rigging the system and our system is rigged. | ||
| This is reality. | ||
| You know it, they know it, I know it, and pretty much the whole world knows it. | ||
| The thing that said, take a look at what happened. | ||

| Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy Do you hear what I hear? | ||
| A song, a song, high above the tree With a voice as big as the sea With a voice as big as the sea Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king Do you know what I know? | ||
| In your palace warm mighty king Do you know what I know? | ||

| - Excuse me, personal money. | ||
| - Down the hall. | ||
| - Yeah. | ||
| - It's not a great doctor. | ||
| I'm going to try it. | ||
| - I'm just like, man. | ||
| - Excuse me, personal money. | ||
| - Down the hall. | ||
| - Their male modeling wouldn't be what it is today. | ||
| - What it is today. | ||
| - Donald. | ||
| - Yeah. | ||
| - I think you'll like it. - I think you'll like it. | ||
| - What's this about a fight for the title? | ||
| - You gotta be losing money on this. | ||
| - If you want to really see something that said, take a look at what happened. | ||
| - I've been acting like power, my phone, - Hey. | ||
| - Why this beat so crazy? | ||
| - We will make America proud again. | ||
| - If you try to get our souls. | ||
| - You will rule. | ||
| - We will make America wealthy again. | ||
| - And yes, together, we will make America great again. | ||
| - I'm still not from a trench. | ||
| - Come to my block, come to see how we live and we chillin' with black. | ||
| - What? | ||
| - What? | ||
| - What is this about a fight for the title? - I'm still not from a trench. | ||
| - I'm still not from a trench. - I'm still not from a trench. | ||
| - I'm still not from a trench. | ||
| - I'm still not from a trench. - I'm still not from a trench. | ||
| - Together, we will make America great again. | ||
| - I'm still not from a trench. | ||
| - Come to my block, come to see how we live and we chillin' with black. | ||
| wouldn't you dedicate yourself to public service? | ||
| Because I think it's a very mean life. | ||
| I would love and I would dedicate my life to this country, but I see it as being a mean life. | ||
| And I also see it as somebody with strong views. | ||
| And somebody with the kind of views that are maybe a little bit unpopular, which may be right, but may be unpopular, wouldn't necessarily have a chance of getting elected against somebody with no great brain but a big smile. | ||
| And that's a sad commentary for the political process. | ||
| And if you have a minute, why don't we go? | ||
| Talk about it somewhere only we know. | ||
| This can be the end of everything. | ||
| So don't we go somewhere only we know. | ||
| Somewhere only we know. | ||
| I'm not supposed to be here tonight. | ||

|
They say, can we really go back? | |
| And the answer is, whether you're conservative or liberal, right when you're left wing, the answer is no. | ||
| We're never going back. | ||
| It's gone. | ||

It's gone. | |
| All of that is gone. | ||
| But I would call myself something like a Christian futurist instead. | ||
| Because Jesus Christ was our past before any of us were born or conceived. | ||
| Jesus Christ is our present now. | ||

And we want people that can burn, really more than anybody. | |

| The mission of our movement is to make this country a Christian country. | ||
| The mission is to create a Christian future in our time. | ||
| The only way we're going to do it is not by infiltrating, not by subverting, not by lying, which is what a lot of people do. | ||

|
The only way that we're going to make this happen is with the boldness of a real Christian. | |
| It's the only way. | ||
| We have got to be willing to die for Jesus Christ. | ||
| We have to want it more than they do. | ||
| because there are thousands and millions and tens of millions and hundreds of millions of Christians ready to meet their final destiny. | ||
| Then nothing can stop us and nothing will. | ||

| My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes. | ||
| We have a great show for you tonight. | ||
| Very excited to be back here with you tonight on Wednesday. | ||
| We have a lot to talk about tonight. | ||
| Lots to get into. | ||
| Big show. | ||
| Our featured story tonight. | ||
| We're talking all about the imminent government shutdown. | ||
| Huge news. | ||
| Republican-Democrat bipartisan deal that On a continuing resolution to fund the government until March has completely collapsed under pressure from Elon Musk and Donald Trump. | ||
| Now Congress is facing a Friday deadline to pass a bill to fund the government. | ||
| And there's a lot of details here. | ||
| We're going to talk tonight about what's in the bill that was struck down. | ||
| We're going to talk about why it was shut down. | ||
| This was a done deal. | ||
| Republicans and Democrats shook hands. | ||
| They were ready to do it. | ||
| But it was Donald Trump and Elon Musk that intervened at the last minute to force Republicans not to support the deal. | ||
| We'll talk about that. | ||
| And we'll also be talking tonight about the why. | ||
| And it seems that Trump would like to include in the deal something about the debt ceiling. | ||
| He wants to raise the debt ceiling before Biden leaves office. | ||
| And that actually wasn't even a part of the deal. | ||
| Wasn't even in it. | ||
| So Trump wants to restart negotiations over the debt ceiling as a part of this CR. That seems to be the big reason so that he won't have to do it in his administration in June 2025. So we're going to talk all about that. | ||
| It's... | ||
| Pretty boring, but we'll talk about it. | ||
| We're going to get into the politics behind it. | ||
| The big story is how it seems like this is not going to be the same, or I hope it won't be, as the last 10 years. | ||
| This has always been the story, which is that Trump has an initiative, and whether Congress is controlled by Republicans or not, Republicans fold. | ||
| They give Democrats everything they want because the Democrats control the media. | ||
| The Republicans know that without the ability to force a shutdown because they'd be blamed for any shutdown by the left-wing media that they have no leverage. | ||
| So whether they control the House or the Senate or both at the same time, regardless, they will be blamed for any budgetary shortfall. | ||
| And we saw this in Trump's first term repeatedly. | ||
| And we even saw this under the Biden administration when Republicans controlled the House. | ||
| So with the intervention of Trump and Elon, this is like the beginning of the beginning here. | ||
| And it's going to tell us a lot about the relationship between the executive and the legislative in the next four years, if anything changes at all. | ||
| So that is why it is interesting. | ||
| The details are not that interesting. | ||
| What is interesting is that it seems that Trump and Elon are trying to set the tone going into this second term. | ||
| And by that, I mean they are trying to dictate and set a new precedent in the relationship between this incoming Republican Congress and the executive branch. | ||
| They want to do it on their terms. | ||
| And that's actually a really good idea. | ||
| I support it. | ||
| So we'll talk all about that. | ||
| We'll also be talking about a brand new interview with the new apparent leader of Syria, Mohammed al-Julani, who is the leader of Hyatt Tahrir al-Sham, otherwise known as HTS. That is the group which took over Syria last week. | ||
| We don't actually know what this government is going to look like. | ||
| All the questions we asked after the fall of the Assad regime are still unanswered. | ||
| We're getting close to an answer, but we still don't know the fate of the autonomous administration of northeastern Syria. | ||
| We don't know what role Turkey will play in the shaping of the new government. | ||
| We don't know whether Russia will remain at their bases, although it appears they're removing all their assets, which is interesting because some super chatter last week said, of course, Russia is going to stay at the bases. | ||
| No, not of course. | ||
| And now they're pulling everything out. | ||
| So maybe not so much. | ||
| And then the biggest question of all is the character of the new regime. | ||
| The previous regime, the Assad government, was a Ba'athist state controlled by the Alawite minority. | ||
| Syria is a nation of Sunni Arabs, which was controlled by a socialist Arab nationalist dictatorship, which was ruled by a dynastic Alawite family, an elite officer class. | ||
| Alawites are a branch of Shiite Islam. | ||
| And they're not technically Shiites, but they are followers of Ali, who is one of the successors to Mohammed. | ||
| So he's considered part of that branch. | ||
| Alawites are considered part of that branch. | ||
| They are in the minority on Syria's west coast. | ||
| And so the previous regime was secular, authoritarian, socialist, and ruled by a dynastic ethnic religious minority. | ||
| This new group, which has taken over the capital, HTS, is Sunni Arab, and they are Salafist, meaning that they are Islamist. | ||
| They believe in Sharia law over the government. | ||
| Therefore, they are not socialist, Arab nationalist, and they are not secular. | ||
| Question is, will the character of the Syrian regime change completely? | ||
| Will it now look like the Taliban? | ||
| Will it now look like Saudi Arabia? | ||
| Or will it look more like Iraq? | ||
| Will it be democratic? | ||
| Will there be elections? | ||
| Will there be a constitution? | ||
| And if there are elections and if there is some kind of democratic process, will HTS remain in power? | ||
| And will its leader become the president? | ||
| That is the question. | ||
| And so we're starting to get some answers on that. | ||
| The leader of HTS, the group which is now in control of most of Syria, gave an interview to BBC. And it's really interesting. | ||
| Now, all of a sudden, he's wearing Western clothes. | ||
| And he says there will be a constitution. | ||
| And he's changed his name. | ||
| He's going by a different name now. | ||
| And he says that women are going to be educated, right? | ||
| And this is really interesting because right now the group that he leads is considered a terrorist group by the government of the United Kingdom. | ||
| BBC is state-run media in the UK. The UK government calls them a legally designated terrorist group. | ||
| So does the United States. | ||
| So does Iran. | ||
| So does Turkey. | ||
| So does Israel. | ||
| So does all of its neighbors. | ||
| And now it seems like they're on a press tour. | ||
| To rehabilitate the group. | ||
| And it's all very suspicious. | ||
| So if we have time we'll talk about that as well. | ||
| Should be a pretty good show. | ||
| Before we get into the news I want to remind you to smash the follow button on Rumble to get notified whenever I go live. | ||
| I've been pretty late these days but I told you, you know, look, it's the end of the year. | ||
| I am really—these are just for my participation points, okay? | ||
| I'm getting ready to take my break, and I'm coming back full—what is it? | ||
| Full steam? | ||
| Full speed? | ||
| Full speed ahead next month, probably around the time of the inauguration. | ||
| So these are just—this is just bonus content as far as I'm concerned. | ||
| But smash the follow button to get notified when I go live. | ||
| Also, smash the like button, leave a comment down below. | ||
| Let me know what you think about the show. | ||
| Tell me your thoughts. | ||
| And I think that's about it. | ||
| There is one other thing I wanted to show you before we get into the news. | ||
| We have a lot of stuff to get into. | ||
| We're going to talk a little bit about Congress. | ||
| We'll talk about Syria. | ||
| But I wanted to show you one other thing before we get into all that. | ||
| Lately, I've been complaining a lot about how it seems that the right wing is being deradicalized. | ||
| That's the word of the day. | ||
| This is the operative word. | ||
| Deradicalization. | ||
| The Trump movement used to be a radicalizing force. | ||
| Normies, normie conservatives were being radicalized by the Trump movement. | ||
| And by that I mean they were moving rightward. | ||
| They were becoming more right-wing. | ||
| And in particular, they were embracing a radical perspective on politics in general, denying the elections, rejecting legitimacy of the media, questioning the efficacy of our democratic institutions. | ||
| These are all characteristic of a far more radical politics. | ||
| And maybe the foundation of that radicalism is that it reframed politics. | ||
| The Trump movement reframed politics away from a right-left dialectic altogether and towards a pro-regime and anti-regime politics. | ||
| Trump was considered outside of the ruling elite, outside of the system and And by penetrating the system would transform it and change its fundamental characteristics. | ||
| That's what made it truly radical. | ||
| And I've been complaining a lot about how lately... | ||
| It is doing the opposite. | ||
| It is deradicalizing people. | ||
| If Trump used to make people not believe in the elections, now Trump is making people believe in the elections. | ||
| In 2020, 80% of Republicans thought the election was rigged. | ||
| In 2024, 100% of Republicans believe they weren't. | ||
| In 2020, probably 100% of Republicans believe the media was lying. | ||
| In 2024, that number is significantly lower based on things we've seen in the past six, nine months, and I've covered them on the show. | ||
| And anyway... | ||
| I pointed out that in this new era where Trump appears to be a de-radicalizing agent, which is actually counterproductive for our movement, I said that we're really the only ones left. | ||
| I and this movement, America First and the Groypers, we're really the only ones that are pushing the envelope. | ||
| We're the only ones that are actually ideologically right-wing. | ||
| We're not center-right. | ||
| We're not right-wing liberals. | ||
| We're truly reactionary and that's based on our traditional interpretation of Christianity, specifically Catholicism. | ||
| It is based on our social views regarding gender and sex. | ||
| It's based on our views about race and ethnicity as it pertains specifically to immigration and about the character of the government and whether it should be democratic and whether there should be qualifications for voting or who should be in elected office. | ||
| And anyway, I pointed out repeatedly, this is why we are indispensable. | ||
| This is why we are so valuable, because we're the only right-wing people left. | ||
| Everybody else has totally compromised in order to win this election. | ||
| Everybody is softening on... | ||
| Feminism, immigration, foreign policy, softening again on some of those institutional questions like the elections and the media. | ||
| They're softening on things like LGBT and abortion. | ||
| They're softening on things like religion. | ||
| And I wanted to show you something I saw today was so funny. | ||
| We haven't done an AFPAC in a minute. | ||
| We tried to do an AFPAC 4 in June. | ||
| We got shut down. | ||
| Hopefully we'll do another one soon. | ||
| But you have all these other events, and I saw a preview for one of them. | ||
| Today, and it's a James O'Keefe event. | ||
| James O'Keefe, he was the founder of Project Veritas. | ||
| He got kicked out. | ||
| That's a whole other story. | ||
| But James O'Keefe is an investigative journalist. | ||
| You may know him. | ||
| He popularized the hidden camera. | ||
| Honeypot interviews. | ||
| And anyway, so he's been hosting these parties lately. | ||
| I mean, they're really political conferences, but he calls them a party. | ||
| And I saw there was a preview for one. | ||
| I want to play the preview for you. | ||
| I want to give you a taste of this is what the conservative movement is like without the Groypers. | ||
| If there were no Groypers, if there was no Nick Fuentes, this would be it. | ||
| This is what you would have. | ||
| So I want to play this for you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let me just get this headphone in if I can. | |
| And I'll play for you. | ||
| This is a trailer for his upcoming James O'Keefe party in Phoenix, Arizona. | ||
| Get a load of this. | ||
| I want you guys to watch. | ||
| This is what conservatism is like without the Groypers. | ||
| This is your average conservatism without Nick Fuentes and the Groipers. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is your average conservatism without Nick Fuentes and the Groipers. | |
| All right. | ||
| Alright. | ||
| Alright! | ||
| Dude! | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| Isn't that great, you guys? | ||
| Isn't that great? | ||
| So this is your... | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is James O'Keefe. | |
| He actually follows me. | ||
| Better do what you can to join me in Phoenix, Arizona. | ||
| It's going to be the party of the decade. | ||
| Which decade, by the way? | ||
| Which decade is that? | ||
| The 1980s? | ||
| Best party of the 1980s? | ||
| Because I think that decade is over. | ||
| I think that decade was over 35 years ago. | ||
| I think the 1980s was over a long time ago. | ||
| Maybe you didn't hear. | ||
| Maybe you haven't heard. | ||
| This party is for anyone who's been jailed, sued, fired, or condemned for telling the truth. | ||
| We are undefeated. | ||
| Hey, that's me! | ||
| All the above for telling the truth. | ||
| Tickets at JamesO'KeefeParty.com, AmFest 2024. Okay, now this is what... | ||
| The other day we did a segment like this. | ||
| I showed you a tweet by Joey Manarino and his wife saying, They felt the compulsion to tell everybody that European girls like black guys. | ||
| And they said, if you have a problem with that, well, you're an incel. | ||
| That was yesterday. | ||
| That was two of the biggest pro-Trump surrogates, James O'Keefe and Ada Lutcher. | ||
| They logged on yesterday. | ||
| They felt the need to tell everybody that black people should fly to Poland if they want to have sex with white people. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| Average conservative influencers. | ||
| Then today, we see this advertisement for the party, and from what I understand, this is a white and black backup dancer behind James O'Keefe, dressed up like Michael Jackson, doing a Michael Jackson dance. | ||
| For their rave party in Phoenix, Arizona on Friday. | ||
| We'll watch it one more time. | ||
| Watch it one more time. | ||
| This is, again, I want everybody to understand, this is in reality. | ||
| In real life. | ||
| Not a Trump TikTok edit. | ||
| Not something fake. | ||
| Not something fake that you see online. | ||
| This is what real conservatism looks like. | ||
| Without me and the Groypers, this is what it actually is. | ||
| Watch one more time. | ||
| Look at these moves. | ||
| I like this part. | ||
| I like this part. | ||
| When it says it doesn't matter who's wrong or right, and you have James O'Keefe between a white guy and a black guy getting between them saying, hey, break it up, you two. | ||
| Hey, let's stop this race war. | ||
| Break it up. | ||
| I guess that's a white and black guy ready to come to blows over the election or something. | ||
| James O'Keefe says, hey, stop. | ||
| Hey, he's holding his friend back. | ||
| Hey, come on now. | ||
| Hey, you stop too. | ||
| Hey, listen, guys, let's break this up. | ||
| And then, oh, yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Then he goes in. | |
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| Yes! | ||
| Oh, yeah! | ||
| That's clean! | ||
| A little spin. | ||
| Oh, yeah! | ||
| Alright. | ||
| Oh, I like that one. | ||
| A little hip thrust. | ||
| Yeah, dealing the cards. | ||
|
unidentified
|
A little cross arm action. | |
| Throwing the leg up. | ||
| Good stuff, you guys. | ||
| This is great stuff. | ||
| This is how we win the culture war. | ||
| Now, this is counterculture. | ||
| I'm starting to hear that conservatism is the new punk rock, you guys. | ||
| I've been hearing a rumor that conservatism is the new punk rock. | ||
| You want to be a part of the real counterculture? | ||
| Get a wife, Jack, and dance to Michael Jackson and make America rave again. | ||
| What are we, dude? | ||
| The belt? | ||
| Tucked in. | ||
| I like how it's kind of... | ||
| You see how it kind of is... | ||
| Showing his belly there a little bit? | ||
| Man, what are we doing, you guys? | ||
| What are we doing? | ||
| What are we doing, you guys? | ||
| Who wants this? | ||
| Who asked for this? | ||
| This is the problem when old people run everything. | ||
| You want to know what the problem is? | ||
| The people that are funding youth politics are 100 years old. | ||
| The people that are giving money to Turning Point USA and James O'Keefe, when James O'Keefe goes to the Breakers and Vero Beach every year to raise money from the Jewish donors and the evangelical donors, when James O'Keefe goes to the Breakers every year, when he goes to Vero every year to raise all the money for his group, The donors are a thousand years old. | ||
| And to them, he is a young man. | ||
| I think he's in his 30s, maybe 40s. | ||
| So, you know, he is like a young guy. | ||
| But to them, he's a kid. | ||
| To the 100-year-old donors in Southern Florida, this guy's a teenager. | ||
| This guy's a baby. | ||
| But to us, he's a millennial Gen Xer who still believes that Michael Jackson's the coolest thing ever. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Who still believes that Michael Jackson is awesome. | |
| Who's really into the 80s and 90s. | ||
| Who's really into stuff like that. | ||
| But I was actually born in 1998. That actually makes me one of the older Zoomers. | ||
| If not the eldest Zoomer. | ||
| And so I don't know what they or what James O'Keefe is thinking. | ||
| Nobody actually in this generation gives a shit about Michael Jackson other than Dalton Clotfelter. | ||
| Nobody actually cares or likes. | ||
| In other words, this is self-indulgent. | ||
| The idea that a bunch of teenagers who are raised by Fortnite and TikTok... | ||
| Are excited by a Michael Jackson dance in the year 2024 is so insane and delusional. | ||
| Only Khan Inc. | ||
| could come up with this. | ||
| Only con ink, only conservatives could think that this would be appealing. | ||
| So it's sort of a disaster. | ||
| Without the Groypers, without America First, this is what you have. | ||
| This is what you have to work with. | ||
| I think that's my favorite part. | ||
| And then it goes out. | ||
| I love how he grabs one, and then I like how he starts hopping. | ||
| Yeah, so... | ||
| This is why if you don't have America first, you have Ben Shapiro talking about wicked. | ||
| You have Dennis Prager talking about jacking off. | ||
| You have James O'Keefe doing the Michael Jackson dance. | ||
| And you have Joey Manorino talking about having sex with black men. | ||
| This is what your conservative movement is without the Groypers. | ||
| People want to complain about, we're too edgy. | ||
| Oh, you don't take anything seriously. | ||
| Right? | ||
| If it wasn't for our cultural impact, this is what we would have. | ||
| And I would even give a little bit of credit to guys like Gypsy Crusader. | ||
| I give credit to guys like Zerka. | ||
| And people criticize them for things, but... | ||
| Look, without that far-right element, it would be really fucking gay. | ||
| Without Groypers, without Wignats, I'll even extend an olive branch to the Wignats here. | ||
| Without the Wignats, without Daily Stormer, without Zerko, without Fresh and Fit, without Sneeko, this is as good as it gets. | ||
| This is as good as you're gonna get. | ||
| You're gonna have Charlie Kirk, Meat Canyon face, coming out and grinning at everybody. | ||
| With his Norwood 2000 going on. | ||
| You're going to have James O'Keefe dressed like Michael Jackson. | ||
| You're going to have Ben Shapiro giggling about Wicked. | ||
| This is what it would be without the goats. | ||
| So anyway, I just had to show you that. | ||
| I saw it today. | ||
| I couldn't resist. | ||
| And then the best part is the PowerPoint graphic at the very end. | ||
| Did I miss it? | ||
| Like, Con Inc. | ||
| has $2 billion. | ||
| This is the best they could do for graphics? | ||
| What is this, like Times New Roman? | ||
| I mean, seriously. | ||
| Who made this? | ||
| Whoever made this needs to be exterminated. | ||
| Like, not even fired. | ||
| They need to be fumigated. | ||
| Who was the graphic designer and what were they being paid? | ||
| How does James O'Keefe make millions and millions and millions of dollars? | ||
| And then they made a graphic like this. | ||
| They do an 80s video in somebody's basement. | ||
| No lighting? | ||
| Like, where's the lighting? | ||
| I could make a better music video than this and I have no budget. | ||
| No one knows about lighting here? | ||
| Oh my gosh. | ||
| And then they do this. | ||
| And then they do this PowerPoint slide. | ||
| They do like a keynote slide. | ||
| Times New Roman. | ||
| Come to our party today. | ||
| Purchase tickets at... | ||
| I mean, what is this? | ||
| Purchase tickets at www.18001999.com. | ||
| Everything about it's terrible. | ||
| No offense. | ||
| And look, James O'Keefe isn't even the worst one. | ||
| I don't hate James O'Keefe. | ||
| I don't really have a problem with him. | ||
| To be honest with you, he's one of the better ones, actually. | ||
| But he's got to let it go. | ||
| We got to stop with the LARP. This is their idea of cool. | ||
| Everybody criticizes me, but this is your average conservative's idea of aura. | ||
| In his mind, he was thinking, because he sings and he dances and he thinks that's really cool and he's really sniffing his own farts. | ||
| In his mind, this is really hip and cool. | ||
| It's got 6,000 views. | ||
| How is that even possible? | ||
| How is he getting away with it? | ||
| The craziest part about this video is that if James O'Keefe just put on regular glasses, no one in the... | ||
| Oh, because he's in disguise all the time. | ||
| James pulling those moves wasn't on my bingo card this year. | ||
| And then someone posted this. | ||
| Oh my God. | ||
| Sorry for the ear rape. | ||
| Then someone posted this in the comments. | ||
| The Bee Gees. | ||
| Yeah, I want to kill myself when I see this. | ||
| When I see this, it makes me want to commit suicide with a gun. | ||
| Boomers post shit like this and say, we're winning the culture. | ||
| Like, the worst thing that is happening that no one is talking about is that boomers are on Twitter. | ||
| In 2016, it was just us. | ||
| People were making a Sonnenrad spin and they were talking about Hyperborea. | ||
| And Holocaust denial. | ||
| And then your grandfather got on the internet and now they're posting this. | ||
| They're posting... | ||
| What do they used to call these? | ||
| There was a name for videos like this where they'd face swap onto dancing. | ||
| It's called like... | ||
| You know what I'm talking about? | ||
| What do they used to call them? | ||
| They've been around forever. | ||
| And now this is... | ||

What if we put... | |
| What if we put RFK Jr. and Trump on guys dancing? | ||
| What if we put Tucker on there too? | ||
| And JD Vance? | ||
| Wouldn't that be so funny? | ||
| This is so terrible. | ||
| So, I feel like no one is even talking about this, but our movement has been made gay. | ||
| The Trump movement, Trumpism, Trump conservative politics has been made really cringe. | ||
| You know, back 10 years ago, it didn't used to be like this. | ||
| Do you remember when Trump actually had like, let me see, what were some of the good ones? | ||
| You had stuff like this. | ||

I think you get the point. | |
| Yeah, boomers have taken over the movement. | ||
| They're posting trash. | ||
| And they're all verified, too. | ||

Oh, man. | |
| Brutal. | ||
| So, So I reject this. | ||
| I reject what has happened to our movement. | ||
| It's terrible. | ||
| Anyway, alright, we're gonna move on, though. | ||
| I just can't. | ||
| I can't get over the Michael Jackson. | ||
| And he's been doing this for a long time. | ||
| It's not even the first time. | ||
| He did a conference a couple years ago, or maybe it was at Turning Point, and he did this interpretive dance of his life. | ||
| He did a one-man play of his life through interpretive dance. | ||
| I'm not making this up. | ||
| Where he reenacted being sued for And being undercover, and it was literally interpretive dance, like these elaborate costumes and sets, and this was a turning point, and the crowd went mild. | ||
| He was doing this, like, dance about being in Project Veritas, and everybody in the audience is like, this is great, James, good stuff. | ||
| Terrible. | ||
| Anyway, so I just wanted to throw out a little reminder. | ||
| This is what your movement looks like without the far right. | ||
| If you don't have the far right, and that is really what they made a conscious decision this year to discard the far right. | ||
| In 2016, the far right, they allowed the far right to be a part of the victory. | ||
| They had a very radical element for Chan, the alt-right, Breitbart, And they did amplify a lot of those things. | ||
| Remember Trump posted the Sheriff's Star and talked about Jewish banks and things like that. | ||
| Or I'm sorry, international banks. | ||
| They really did lean into the far right. | ||
| And we had legends, real legends like Sam Hyde and Anglin and Charles Johnson was a legend back in those days. | ||
| And now we have this slop. | ||
| Now you have slop and garbage. | ||
| People unironically standing Red Scare. | ||
| And you have Man's World Magazine and just metric ton of dog shit. | ||
| Those guys weren't funny in 2016. Now they have like a version of the far right which comes from Claremont Institute. | ||
| Now you have like a version of the far right which has been co-opted. | ||
| It's like Jack Posobiec and the BAP heads. | ||
| And those guys were never even funny back then. | ||
| Like they didn't have the energy with them back then. | ||
| Back then it was guys like Jeff and it was various other people. | ||
| But it wasn't so-called frog Twitter which has co-opted everything. | ||
| It's a very sad situation. | ||
| So anyway, I just wanted to show that. | ||
| With that out of the way, we're going to dive into the show. | ||
| We're going to get into our news for the night. | ||
| We're going to dive into the government shutdown first. | ||
| Super exciting stuff. | ||
| And I really don't want to get into it, but we have to. | ||
| So tonight our future story is about the imminent government shutdown. | ||
| There is a deadline on Friday for Congress to pass a spending bill or else the government runs out of money and will be forced to shut down. | ||
| Republicans and Democrats came to a deal earlier in the week to avert the shutdown. | ||
| It was ready to go. | ||
| It was going to sail through the House and then the Senate and it would have become law. | ||
| But it is a 1,500-page omnibus bill. | ||
| Omnibus meaning it combines 12 appropriations bills into one super-large bill that will fund the government through March. | ||
| There's three to four months of spending, but it's a lot of money. | ||
| And although initially they were putting together a package that would simply fund the government as part of a continuing resolution, what emerged a few days ago was a deal which included a ton of Totally unrelated provisions. | ||
| In other words, it didn't just fund the government and made a number of other random changes. | ||
| For example... | ||
| We'll get into all of them, but some quick examples. | ||
| It increases congressional pay by about 4%. | ||
| It appropriates money for the Washington Commanders to have a football stadium in D.C. It criminalizes AI pornography and provides for social media users to be able to take that down on the Internet. | ||
| All sorts of random things. | ||
| This is for a large appropriations bill. | ||
| Random things totally unrelated to spending and totally unrelated to each other thrown into the bill at the last minute to get it passed before Congress leaves and ends their session before the winter break and before Biden leaves office and a new Congress is sworn in in the first week of January. | ||
| So that was the plan. | ||
| Republicans and Democrats put out this bill. | ||
| It leaves committee earlier this week. | ||
| It's 1,500 pages. | ||
| It's got all this crap in there. | ||
| They're ready to go. | ||
| And then today, Elon Musk makes a big stink and says Republicans should not pass the bill. | ||
| It's filled with unnecessary spending. | ||
| It's filled with Gibbs for the Democrats and And then Trump jumped on the bandwagon and said Republicans should not pass and if they pass it, we will primary them. | ||
| He said instead we should pass a clean CR. Clean CR means a clean continuing resolution. | ||
| Clean means it just funds the government. | ||
| It doesn't do anything else. | ||
| It doesn't have any of these add-ons. | ||
| Trump comes in and says we don't want a bill with all the garbage. | ||
| We just want the funding. | ||
| And he introduced another negotiating point. | ||
| He said, I want the debt ceiling to be raised. | ||
| And more on that in a moment. | ||
| And so now where we stand is that it looks like the government may shut down. | ||
| The deadline is Friday. | ||
| They put out a 1500 bill today, which is apparently completely unacceptable to Trump and Elon Musk. | ||
| Elon and Trump are pressuring Republicans not to vote for it. | ||
| And now... | ||
| The Speaker, Mike Johnson, does not have the votes to pass it with Republicans. | ||
| He doesn't even have enough Republican support to pass it with mostly Democrats. | ||
| He does not have the votes. | ||
| And no one is coming to bail him out. | ||
| Democrats are not going to agree. | ||
| Many Republicans won't agree. | ||
| The Senate is not going to help. | ||
| And so now Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, is in a real jam because he can't please Trump and Elon. | ||
| He also can't please the Democrats. | ||
| The members are beholden to Trump and Elon on some level because they are publicly pressuring them. | ||
| And the deadline is in two days. | ||
| So now everybody is wondering what are the options for Mike Johnson considered passing a clean CR, but that is considered a non-starter in negotiations for the members. | ||
| They won't vote for that. | ||
| Republicans won't vote for that. | ||
| Democrats won't vote for that. | ||
| So if he can't pass the existing bill and if he can't pass a clean bill and if Trump is actually demanding negotiations renew on the debt ceiling, which would require more time, It seems like there's no deal that can satisfy anybody. | ||
| So we might be hurtling towards a government shutdown that Elon and Trump are actually calling for to last through the end of Biden's presidency and into the swearing-in of a new Congress in a couple of weeks. | ||
| And this is a story from the New York Times. | ||
| It says, quote... | ||
| A bipartisan spending deal to avert a shutdown is on life support today after President-elect Donald Trump condemned it, leaving lawmakers without a strategy to fund the government past a Friday night deadline. | ||
| Mr. Trump issued a scathing statement ordering Republicans not to support the sprawling bill, piling on to a barrage of criticism from Elon Musk, who spent Wednesday trashing the measure on social media and threatening any Republican who supported it with political ruin. | ||
| It was not clear how Mike Johnson planned to proceed as the package, which was stuffed with unrelated policy measures, as well as tens of billions of dollars in disaster and agricultural aid, appeared to be hemorrhaging support. | ||
| Some Republicans suggested he was mulling stripping the bill of everything but the spending extension and putting it to a vote, but the fate of such a measure was very much in doubt. | ||
| It began as a simple spending bill to keep government funds flowing past a midnight deadline into mid-March, but it emerged from bipartisan negotiations with $100 billion in disaster rate and dozens of other unrelated policies. | ||
| The bill appeared doomed when Mr. Trump weighed in late Wednesday afternoon saying lawmakers need to pass a temporary funding bill without Democrat giveaways and said it should be combined with an increase in the debt ceiling, which is the cap on how much money the United States is authorized to borrow to meet its financial obligations. which is the cap on how much money the United Just as conservative Republicans and Mr. Musk were railing against the bipartisan deal for adding too much spending to the national debt, Mr. Trump called for raising the debt ceiling, | ||
| insisting Republicans must increase it as part of the spending package so the borrowing limit would go up while President Biden is still in office. insisting Republicans must increase it as part of the spending The borrowing limit is expected to be reached sometime in January, and a failure to increase it would cause a default on the nation's debt. | ||
| Mr. Trump acknowledged he did not want to shoulder the responsibility for doing so. | ||
| So this is where we're at. | ||
| As usual, we did not have a budget this year. | ||
| We never have a budget. | ||
| Congress just appropriates money when they start to run out. | ||
| And every time they appropriate money, both sides use it as leverage over the other. | ||
| Without a continuing resolution to keep the money going, the government defaults and the Biden administration doesn't want, or rather they don't default, but they shut down. | ||
| The Biden administration doesn't want to shut down because they might be blamed for it. | ||
| Republicans don't want to shut down because Democrats control the media and there's a good chance they won't make people believe that It's the Republicans' fault. | ||
| And so all the time, this has been the story of the past 30, 40 years. | ||
| We've covered many government shutdowns on the show and close calls. | ||
| Whenever there's a debt ceiling negotiation, an omnibus bill, a NDAA bill, there's always one of these showdowns over appropriations. | ||
| And it always turns into this. | ||
| Where they need to pass a continuing resolution to fund the government, again, to get through to another deadline. | ||
| They will negotiate with each other. | ||
| They know it's imperative that they pass it. | ||
| And then what you get is an unreadable bill right before Congress leaves and ends the session. | ||
| And it's filled with a bunch of junk. | ||
| And we saw this when they raised the debt ceiling. | ||
| We saw this all throughout last year. | ||
| This is what got Kevin McCarthy overthrown back in October 2023. About a week before October 7th, McCarthy was overthrown because the exact same thing happened. | ||
| They were trying to put together these 12 appropriations bills around the same time, roughly speaking. | ||
| Republicans wanted immigration. | ||
| The Democrats wanted money for Ukraine. | ||
| The Democrats wouldn't give on immigration. | ||
| Republicans wouldn't give on Ukraine. | ||
| Kevin McCarthy tried to outmaneuver Republicans to get it to the Senate. | ||
| Republicans torpedoed it, and then they overthrew him. | ||
| And there was a complete gridlock until April of last year. | ||
| So for about six months... | ||
| Until finally when Iran bombed Israel, Republicans and Democrats gave up both of their demands, although really more the Republicans, and they decided to pass the funding for Ukraine separately, pass the funding for Israel separately, pass the spending bill separately, and then not do anything on immigration. | ||
| And that brings us to where we are now. | ||
| That spending bill from April, when they gave up, that basically brings us to where we are right now. | ||
| Before that, again, it was this six months negotiation going back to October. | ||
| Before that, it was the debt ceiling negotiation in May and June of 2023, when Marjorie Greene and others let us down and they raised the debt ceiling until January 2025. They suspended it indefinitely. | ||
| Until January 2025, when a new president and a new Congress would come in. | ||
| And at the time, we said that was a terrible decision. | ||
| They shouldn't have done it. | ||
| They got nothing in return. | ||
| But anyway, so they kick it down the road. | ||
| It happens every time. | ||
| And this time, they're coming out with this bill. | ||
| And the bill ties a few things together for political pressure. | ||
| It says in order to fund the government and critically in order to get hurricane relief to North Carolina, you need all of this pork barrel spending. | ||
| And really what they're doing is holding these things hostage. | ||
| They're saying that if you don't pass our pork barrel spending, then we will deprive North Carolina of disaster relief money. | ||
| And we will also shut the government down, creating a political liability. | ||
| So there's political pressure coming from two places. | ||
| And the pressure is whoever... | ||
| Whoever refuses to relent will be blamed for the shutdown. | ||
| And whoever is blamed for the shutdown will also be blamed for holding up the money to people that need it, to people who are impacted by the hurricanes in Florida and North Carolina earlier in the year. | ||
| So people especially, congressmen especially, don't want to be blamed. | ||
| Again, not only for not voting for it and causing a shutdown, which is already bad PR, but causing the shutdown which stalls or withholds indefinitely relief money for the victims of a natural disaster. | ||
| And that is how they get every member of Congress to pass a bill, which they didn't read. | ||
| It's 1,500 pages published. | ||
| Think about that for one moment. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It came out this week. | |
| They needed to be passed by Friday. | ||
| So you tell me, who could read 1,500 pages in a matter of days? | ||
| Who is doing that? | ||
| Do you think the members are doing that? | ||
| Do you think it's even possible? | ||
| I seriously doubt it. | ||
| But that's what they do. | ||
| They go into the negotiations saying we're going to pass funding for the government. | ||
| They come out of negotiations a few days before the deadline and Congress closes for winter. | ||
| And they say, hey guys, yeah, actually the plan's changed. | ||
| It's now 1,500 pages. | ||
| It does about a dozen other things other than fund the government. | ||
| And if you don't pass it, then the government shuts down. | ||
| And not only that, but no one gets their relief money for the hurricane. | ||
| And if you are seen or accused of being the cause of that, well then, you might lose your seat. | ||
| You'll be blamed for all of it. | ||
| You'll be blamed for the shutdown and for withholding the money to people that lost their homes and need medical care because their house got washed away in a river surge in a hurricane, a storm surge in a hurricane. | ||
| This is how they do it. | ||
| This is how they do it every time. | ||
| And by the way, Maybe the biggest problem is what is not considered in the bill, which Trump pointed out. | ||
| Not only does the bill attach the hurricane relief money to these other things, many of which aren't even good, but it also doesn't address the debt ceiling. | ||
| And what happens in January, what is talked about in this article, what Trump posted on True Social, what I mentioned a moment ago, is the debt ceiling. | ||
| So for those who don't know... | ||
| The debt ceiling is this instrument that was imposed by the government in the last century. | ||
| It says that there is a limit to how much money the government can borrow. | ||
| Pretty intuitive. | ||
| It's a debt ceiling. | ||
| And the problem is this. | ||
| The government does not bring in enough money in tax receipts every year to pay its obligations. | ||
| We run a deficit year over year. | ||
| Lately, the deficits have exploded. | ||
| The deficits are in the trillions of dollars, and we've been adding trillions of dollars to the debt every year since the pandemic. | ||
| And even before then, but it really got out of control around the time of the pandemic. | ||
| And so we reached the debt ceiling. | ||
| Even though the money has been appropriated, meaning that Congress has authorized the use of the funds, they have not increased the amount of money that we can borrow to meet those obligations. | ||
| So, for example, last year, in 2023, Congress was authorized to spend so many trillions of dollars on But in order to spend them, we would have crossed the threshold of the borrowing limit set by a previous Congress. | ||
| And so we literally could not borrow the cash to pay for the obligations that Congress had already authorized. | ||
| So there had to be a negotiation in the Congress to increase the borrowing limit so we could borrow cash to keep funding or obligations for these appropriations, which had already been approved by the Congress. | ||
| And so they did that last June in May and June 2023. | ||
| There was a big negotiation over it. | ||
| And the reason it's a negotiation is because it is leverage. | ||
| The government shut down. | ||
| The debt ceiling is leverage. | ||
| If they don't raise the debt ceiling, then the government literally can't borrow money. | ||
| And if it can't borrow money, then it has no money to pay its obligations. | ||
| They have to wait for tax receipts to come in. | ||
| And that doesn't happen until the following April. | ||
| You don't get all the money until the end of the next tax season. | ||
| So what happens is the government defaults on its debt. | ||
| If the government doesn't have the money to pay for interest, if it doesn't have the money to pay for Medicare and Social Security, it starts to default. | ||
| It starts to break down. | ||
| And if the government defaults, there's a huge ripple effect in the economy. | ||
| There's a huge contraction. | ||
| It would be a major problem. | ||
| And theoretically, it's argued that it could be solved a monetary policy, but that would be extraordinary. | ||
| So this gives Congress and particularly the House of Representatives leverage. | ||
| The House of Representatives has the power of the purse under the Constitution. | ||
| All spending bills, all appropriations bills must originate in the House, which at the time Republicans controlled. | ||
| So last year during the summer, the Biden administration needed the House to pass legislation. | ||
| A bill to raise the debt ceiling so they could keep borrowing money to meet their obligations to avoid a default to crash the economy, which would be very bad for them. | ||
| This is where Republicans are in the driver's seat, or at least they should be. | ||
| And they should extract concessions and say, well, we were elected to control the House. | ||
| We were elected to control the purse strings. | ||
| And we believe the spending is irresponsible and out of control. | ||
| And if you want us to increase the debt ceiling, then we need a commitment to rein in the deficit spending. | ||
| That is what Republicans should have done. | ||
| Or they should have said, we want to extract other concessions. | ||
| In order for us to raise the debt ceiling, we want the capital tapes released. | ||
| We want border security. | ||
| Illegal immigration is causing a debt crisis in New York City, in Los Angeles, in Chicago, and for the federal government. | ||
| All these immigrants are coming in. | ||
| It's bankrupting the cities. | ||
| The cities need to be bailed out by the states. | ||
| The states need to be bailed out by the federal government. | ||
| It's not outside the realm of possibility that Republicans say, we're not going to raise a debt ceiling because we have a completely irresponsible illegal immigration policy which is driving the deficit. | ||
| They didn't do that. | ||
| They raised the debt ceiling, meaning that the government could borrow as much as it wanted until 2025, conveniently, when the next government comes to power, when the next Congress is seated in the first week of January, and when the next president, whether it was Trump or Biden, would be inaugurated on January 20th. | ||
| Republicans gave it up for nothing last year. | ||
| And so now that Trump has won the election, guess what happens in January? | ||
| He goes crashing into the debt ceiling. | ||
| The debt ceiling is reasserted in January. | ||
| They run out of money in July. | ||
| And what happens? | ||
| It sets Trump up for a brutal negotiation to raise the debt ceiling. | ||
| And this is what I've been talking about all year. | ||
| This is how politics actually works. | ||
| If you are optimistic about Trump and his second term and what might be possible, consider that there are three branches of government and the other two are not cooperative. | ||
| Honestly, three of them are not cooperative with the president because the executive branch is now a vast bureaucracy made up of departments and agencies which are run by rhinos that Trump will largely appoint and many who will turn over from the last administration. | ||
| And this is one of those battles where you see this on full display. | ||
| Trump is inaugurated in January and six months after his inauguration, he finds himself in a massive appropriations battle where Democrats and moderate Republicans have leverage. | ||
| They're all thinking about the midterm elections in 2026 and they're all thinking about an up and down vote on an appropriations bill. | ||
| And almost certainly the Democrats and moderate Republicans are going to say they oppose Trump's most radical policies or they want certain concessions for the Democrats. | ||
| And certainly they'll say that in the Senate. | ||
| So it puts Trump in a position where he's bent over a barrel here. | ||
| He needs them to raise the debt ceiling because his treasury needs to be able to borrow to meet their obligations. | ||
| But he needs to go through Congress, which is made up of Republican leadership, which is hostile to his agenda. | ||
| And where Democrats still have the power of the filibuster in the Senate and where Democrats still have like nearly 50 percent of the seats in the House. | ||
| Republicans will have the smallest majority in history in the House of Representatives in the next two years. | ||
| So Trump is saying now, hey, let's raise the debt ceiling while Biden is the president. | ||
| Why would we raise the debt ceiling for Biden in June 2023? | ||
| But why would we not do that for the incoming Trump administration in January? | ||
| In other words, why set the administration up to fail in a high-stakes negotiation, which will be bad politics? | ||
| And it's bad politics, one, because he's at the mercy of Congress, and two, it's bad politics because it creates this hypocrisy. | ||
| Trump ran on a platform of fiscal responsibility. | ||
| Well, how does that look if six months into his presidency he's raising the debt ceiling? | ||
| Doesn't that look like he can't get the debt under control? | ||
| Obviously, in practice, no president can undo our structural economic problems in six months. | ||
| And certainly they can't do it alone. | ||
| And yet, if he is forced to raise the debt ceiling with the Republican House and Senate in July, he will be attacked for it. | ||
| And they'll say, I thought Trump came in to solve the debt. | ||
| Here he is asking for more debt. | ||
| And Republicans might be reluctant to cooperate with him for that reason. | ||
| Suddenly, Mike Johnson might become a fiscal conservative. | ||
| Even though Kevin McCarthy, without even any concessions, raised the debt ceiling. | ||
| Maybe Mike Johnson suddenly says, now is the time for restraint. | ||
| Now is the time for austerity. | ||
| And all this does is circumscribe Trump's options as the president. | ||
| If Trump has priorities, this is where Mike Johnson gets to become a fiscal hawk and say, oh, I'm terribly sorry. | ||
| But we can't do what you want us to do because we have to get our spending in control in order to raise the debt ceiling and good conscience. | ||
| In order for us to allow you to borrow more money, first we need to do the responsible thing and make commitments to borrow less money in the future. | ||
| And all that does is handcuff the president. | ||
| That means that Biden got to spend as much money as he wanted. | ||
| He got to print money to give to Ukraine, print money to give to black people as COVID stimulus, and Which prioritize non-whites and women. | ||
| He got to print money for chips, print money for infrastructure. | ||
| He got to print money for all the good stuff and get all the glory and the credit. | ||
| And then when Trump comes into office, suddenly his so-called allies are going to want to tighten the belt and say, hey, not so fast. | ||
| Now is the time for austerity. | ||
| So Trump acutely understands the battle to come and Which is that in just seven months from now, not six months into his presidency, he's going to face this debt ceiling battle. | ||
| And actually in March, he's going to face another appropriations battle, which will come due around the same time, around May or June. | ||
| He's thinking ahead, saying, why would we give the Democrats all this stuff that they want? | ||
| In a continuing resolution when we won the mandate, why will we let Biden get one more victory? | ||
| Why will we let him and the Democrats ride off into the sunset and saddle Trump with this negotiation over the debt ceiling? | ||
| So Trump and Elon have intervened to sabotage the deal. | ||
| And here's how it works. | ||
| Mike Johnson was probably planning on passing the bill along party lines with Republicans or maybe with a lot of Democrats. | ||
| You have a Republican-controlled House. | ||
| You have a Democrat-controlled Senate. | ||
| Johnson made a deal with Schumer, the leader of the Senate, on this bill. | ||
| We pass the bill in the House, pass it in the Senate, it becomes law. | ||
| It's a done deal. | ||
| Well, since Trump started to launch a revolt and other Republicans started to revolt in the party, Mike Johnson considered invoking a special rule, which requires two-thirds of the vote, but he would get a good percentage of Republicans and then mostly Democrats to bypass the majority of Republicans and get it through the House to get to the Senate. | ||
| So in other words, instead of getting—instead of the Republican-controlled House passing the bill with most Republicans and Democrats, he would discount the objections of most Republicans, get a small fraction of them, and then all the Democrats to basically betray the Republicans, get it past them. | ||
| It requires a higher vote threshold, but if he can combine powers with the Democrats, he could get it through— And he could deliver it to Chuck Schumer, who will then deliver it to Biden for it to be signed. | ||
| That was his plan B. That's exactly what Kevin McCarthy did. | ||
| But with the intervention of Elon Musk and Trump on social media, now they don't even have enough Republican votes to do that. | ||
| Now that Elon is threatening to spotlight every Republican that votes for it, now they don't even have the Republican support. | ||
| With the majority of Democrats or all of them to get it through the House. | ||
| So now they have no votes. | ||
| And here's the problem. | ||
| They have no votes on the bill that they negotiated with the Democrats. | ||
| But they also have no votes on any other kind of bill. | ||
| They have no votes on a clean bill. | ||
| They have no votes on a bill that addresses the debt ceiling. | ||
| So there is no viable bill with the votes, and the deadline is on Friday. | ||
| And these are some of the things that are in it. | ||
| I'll just read to you a list of the provisions. | ||
| This is from the New York Times also. | ||
| It says, quote, The bill also provides full funding for the reconstruction of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore that collapsed in March. | ||
| Lawmakers set aside $10 billion in direct assistance available to farmers who applied for a federal agricultural funding program. | ||
| In a legislative slate of hand reported by Bloomberg, the spending bill's drafters omitted that provision, this time positioning members for a 3.8% raise Or $6,600 for most members. | ||
| Tucked into the legislation is $250 million in emergency spending to increase access to childcare for working families. | ||
| $250 million for innovations to childcare facilities damaged by natural disasters. | ||
| It allows E15 ethanol to be sold year-round. | ||
| An additional $25 million to protect the residences of Supreme Court justices. | ||
| Requires vendors selling tickets to concert sports and other gatherings to disclose to consumers the total ticket price at the beginning of a transaction. | ||
| Transfers control of the Robert Kennedy Memorial Stadium from the federal government to the District of Columbia, paving the way for a Washington Commanders football stadium. | ||
| Criminalizes the publication of non-consensual intimate visual depictions including deep fake pornography and requiring social media platforms to have procedures in place to remove the content. | ||
| Increases new restrictions on pharmacy benefit managers. | ||
| Throws out a requirement the lawmakers buy healthcare coverage on an insurance exchange established by the ACA. So I actually don't know which of these is a give-me to the Democrats. | ||
| They're going out there and saying, this bill gives all this stuff to the Democrats. | ||
| None of this is really ideologically that bad, as far as I'm aware. | ||
| I understand why maybe Republicans don't want Democrats to get the credit for some of it or why some of it is not ideal. | ||
| People are complaining about the stadium. | ||
| Honestly, who cares? | ||
| I don't think that's the real objection. | ||
| Trump and Musk are saying the problem is all this pork. | ||
| The problem is it's too long and there's too much crap in there. | ||
| They do it every time. | ||
| They do that in every bill. | ||
| For some reason, they want to sabotage the process. | ||
| And I think that is maybe to start a negotiation over the debt ceiling. | ||
| Maybe it is to set a precedent with the Trump administration's role with Congress. | ||
| And I've said it before on the show, Congress remains one of the biggest obstacles to Trump's agenda. | ||
| This was the case throughout his first term. | ||
| Trump wanted a border wall. | ||
| Congress wouldn't give him the money. | ||
| He tried to take the money from the DOD, which Congress already authorized. | ||
| And then the courts challenged that use of the money. | ||
| They had to fight it through the courts. | ||
| It took years. | ||
| That's just one example. | ||
| But there were many others. | ||
| And so Congress delayed and stalled and sabotaged for years until Trump lost the House in 2018. | ||
| And then there was gridlock until the end and he couldn't get any major policy through Congress. | ||
| And so I almost wonder if this is more of a chess move, it's strategy, so that Trump and Elon will be in a stronger position to negotiate with Congress next year to reset that relationship. | ||
| Maybe that's the play. | ||
| Outside of that, I don't understand it. | ||
| Because the way it looks right now is that there will not be a deal. | ||
| And if there's no deal, there's going to be a government shutdown on Friday. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right? | |
| And if there's a government shutdown on Friday, Congress leaves for Christmas. | ||
| They come back and then the new Congress is seated and then maybe the thought process is they'll be able to pass a bill with a Republican House and Senate. | ||
| I guess that's the approach. | ||
| The new Congress will be seated the first week in January. | ||
| If it's a government shutdown, that's in three weeks. | ||
| So maybe that's the goal. | ||
| Wait for a Republican Senate to be seated and With 54 votes in the majority, or 53 plus one, wait for a new house to be seated, they'll retain their majority, then they don't have to negotiate with the Democrats. | ||
| Maybe that's the play. | ||
| And then they could start off with a huge spending bill, they could address the debt ceiling while Biden is still technically the president. | ||
| I think maybe that's the play. | ||
| Push it off. | ||
| Shut down the government for a few weeks in the lame duck. | ||
| New Congress comes in. | ||
| Pass the bill. | ||
| Then the ball is in Biden's court. | ||
| Republican House and Senate do whatever they want. | ||
| They do whatever Trump and Elon instruct them to do. | ||
| Lands on Biden's desk if he refuses. | ||
| Then he's the shutdown president. | ||
| And if he refuses, then ultimately they could just wait until January 20th and then Trump can sign whatever they pass. | ||
| I guess maybe that's the goal. | ||
| And then they could rewrite it and they could have the debt ceiling in there at the beginning or whatever other provision they want. | ||
| Either way, I love to see it because this is exactly the approach that we're going to need. | ||
| If Trump is going to achieve anything in the next four years, he needs to reset the relationship of the executive with the legislative because the biggest unspoken problem of American government is just how much power has been relinquished by the actual elected officials. | ||
| Congress actually has very little power. | ||
| It is the think tanks and the lobbyists and the Congressional staffers that are responsible for most of the legislation. | ||
| It is the departments and agencies inside the executive branch which actually interpret and enforce those laws. | ||
| And so we're at the point now where the president and the actual elected members of the Congress don't do very much. | ||
| And they do a lot, but considering the vast business, the sprawling federal government, they do very little in relation to the actual day-to-day activities of the state. | ||
| We have had the government change hands many times over the years. | ||
| The House, the Senate, the White House, and yet almost everything remains exactly the same. | ||
| Immigration, healthcare, foreign policy. | ||
| Many of these things remain the same and have momentum. | ||
| It doesn't matter who's in office. | ||
| And so if Trump can take full control of the executive, and if he can reset the relationship with Congress and exert some leadership there, it will be a true political revolution. | ||
| I hope he goes in that direction. | ||
| The only problem is, now that Elon Musk is behind Trump, this is becoming somewhat of a problem. | ||
| And let's remember, Elon Musk was not born in the United States of America. | ||
| Elon is an immigrant, right? | ||
| He is an immigrant. | ||
| He is a liberal. | ||
| And how much influence will he have over the government? | ||
| This legislation was torpedoed largely because of his reservations, his protest, which he posted all day on Twitter. | ||
| So is he just going to run the government now? | ||
| Is some immigrant tech oligarch, is he just solely in charge of the government now? | ||
| He's in charge of the Republicans, which control the House, Senate, and White House. | ||
| If he doesn't like it, it doesn't go. | ||
| And you might think that's an improvement over the last administration, over the old regime. | ||
| And maybe you're right. | ||
| Maybe it is an improvement. | ||
| But what happens when Elon advocates for expanding H-1B visas? | ||
| What happens when he advocates for stapling green cards to diplomas? | ||
| It's going to be a different story. | ||
| So I don't know that this is necessarily the best thing to happen. | ||
| But... | ||
| It does indicate that the Trump administration is at least serious about achieving its priorities in the next term because they're not going to be able to do anything if they're shackled to an uncooperative Republican majority. | ||
| But that's that. | ||
| I think that's all the time we have. | ||
| We're almost at, I think we're at about an hour and 15. So we're going to move on. | ||
| We're going to take a look at our super chats. | ||
| We'll see what you guys have to say. | ||
| About all this pretty boring stuff. | ||
| I'm not going to lie, but you know, it's like the end of the year. | ||
| So, so it is what it is, but, um, yeah, I don't know the appropriation stuff. | ||
| It always happens around this time of the year and it's important, but damn, is it boring. | ||
| I'm falling asleep talking about it. | ||
| Okay, but we're going to take a look at our super chats. | ||
| We'll see what you guys have to say about all this. | ||
| I'll get my headphones on. | ||
| Okay, let's take a look. | ||
| We'll see what you have to say about all this. | ||
| We actually have a super chat left over from yesterday. | ||
| It's so funny. | ||
| I literally ended the show last night. | ||
| And then I got this super chat. | ||
| Peter Bueno sent $300. | ||
| No message. | ||
| So thank you to Peter Bueno for the huge super chat. | ||
| That honestly sucks. | ||
| I apologize. | ||
| He literally sent it in the exact minute that I ended the show. | ||
| I like clicked go offline and then boom, the super chat came in. | ||
| That kind of sucks. | ||
| You sent 300 bucks. | ||
| I don't even read it. | ||
| So I wanted to make sure I read that. | ||
| Thank you for the big super chat. | ||
| I do appreciate it. | ||
| I apologize. | ||
| I didn't get it last night. | ||
| For future reference, though, if you want to send in a huge super chat, do a little earlier. | ||
| I feel bad, but it's not really my fault. | ||
| It's really your fault. | ||
| So I'm just giving you some advice, but I do appreciate it. | ||
| Big shout out. | ||
| But that's from yesterday. | ||
| So thank you for that. | ||

| What crash shot? | ||
| I know what you're talking about. | ||
| Okay, chill. | ||
| Uh-huh. | ||

|
Okay. | |
| True. | ||
| Thank you, man. | ||
| I appreciate it. | ||
| You know, I don't want to comment on their marriage. | ||
| That's personal. | ||
| And I like Candace. | ||
| I consider her an acquaintance. | ||
| I don't know if she would call me a friend, but I consider her an acquaintance at this point. | ||
| I don't want to talk badly about her family. | ||
| Look, you know I don't share those values. | ||
| I do not believe in race mixing. | ||
| And it's not because I don't like other races. | ||
| I find Candace Owens very attractive. | ||
| I find black women very attractive. | ||
| I find Asian women very attractive. | ||
| So it's not... | ||
| And you know many of my closest friends are Asian women. | ||
| Kathy Zhu, Michelle Malkin, Gina Bontempo, Gina Florio. | ||
| You know, and Asian women are super intelligent. | ||
| They're super smart. | ||
| They're super awesome. | ||
| But I wouldn't marry one because I want my kids to be white. | ||
| So, you know, it's just one of those things. | ||
| It's like, what do you value? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I mean, I guess some people don't value their race. | ||
| I do. | ||
| So, so it's not something I would do and I don't encourage it, but, you know, to each their own. | ||
| So, Hey, thank you for the big super chat, man. | ||
| Little dap for the holidays. | ||
| Dap completed. | ||
| Thank you, man. | ||
| Irish Groyper. | ||

| Superfan number one sent $20. | ||
| Got my first client since starting my business. | ||
| Here's your cut. | ||
| Great, thanks. | ||
| Cookie grow up or sent $5. | ||
| The next four years is going to be one backpedal after another, isn't it? | ||
| Yeah, it already has been, man. | ||
| What do you mean, what happened to him? | ||
| I mean, he's the same guy he always was. | ||
| He's an idiot dork. | ||
| He's an idiot sellout dork. | ||
| I mean, he literally told me, you know, this guy was a groiper, and he literally told me, You know, because he has a contract with Blaze. | ||
| He said, oh, I interviewed with the head of the Blaze. | ||
| He flew me out. | ||
| They called me into the boardroom. | ||
| They asked me about Israel. | ||
| And he told me how he lied through his teeth about Israel and took this, like, pragmatic position so that he could get a contract. | ||
| And now he just started believing it. | ||
| Whatever lies he told to get a job there, he just started believing it. | ||
| So nothing changed. | ||
| And... | ||
| You know, the other thing is they—these guys are just not intelligent. | ||
| Like, if you listen to Doyle and if you have your ear to the ground in the scene, he just copies what people like Darren Beattie say. | ||
| That's just what Darren Beattie, every like Jew apologist is saying the exact same stuff. | ||
| I'm sure he hangs out in those group chats. | ||
| He was groomed by them. | ||
| And so that's where he's getting his opinions. | ||
| He has no ideas. | ||
| He has no real thoughts. | ||
| So he just borrows from what people in the group chats are saying and the group chats are run by Jews. | ||
| So that's where you get these videos where he says, oh, no, no. | ||
| When Trump took $100 million from Miriam Adelson, that really doesn't mean anything at all. | ||
| That didn't come with strings attached. | ||
| And you go, really? | ||
| Well, what about Golan Heights? | ||
| What about Qasem Soleimani? | ||
| What about the JCPOA? And they say, what's the JCPOA? They say, who's Qasem Soleimani? | ||
| They say, oh, that's not real. | ||
| So, I mean, these are just dumb, ignorant losers, basically. | ||
| And they just never moved on past 2016. | ||
| Thank you. | ||

| That's what I thought. | ||
| Get off my porch, Grover. | ||
| That is interesting. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| I hate questions like this. | ||
| Look, it's me. | ||
| It's all me. | ||
| People that do more prep don't do as good of a show as me because they just don't have it. | ||
| They're just not good talkers. | ||
| Some people are good at talking. | ||
| Some people are bad at talking. | ||
| I'm a good talker. | ||
| I'm a good extemporaneous speaker. | ||
| And you only get to put on a show that's entertaining like this if you have a natural ability and if you practice for thousands of hours from a very young age. | ||
| And that's me. | ||
| I'm him. | ||
| You know, I did extemporaneous speaking in high school. | ||
| I did speech teams, speech forensics. | ||
| And I was a star. | ||
| I was like first place. | ||
| I went on a run. | ||
| I won first place for like five weeks in a row. | ||
| And I didn't even give a shit. | ||
| I mean, I took it less seriously than anybody. | ||
| I just lied out of my ass in those speeches. | ||
| But I was the GOAT. I would just show up. | ||
| It was this event, so I'll just tell you about what a W I was. | ||
| If you don't know, Speech Forensics, that's what they call Speech Team, and they break it down into a bunch of different events. | ||
| You might be on the speech team, but everybody on the team does a different type of speech. | ||
| Some people will read poetry. | ||
| Some people will memorize a speech and give the same speech. | ||
| Some people will do all kinds of different things. | ||
| They'll write an original speech. | ||
| Some people memorize someone else's speech. | ||
| My event was called Extemporaneous Speaking. | ||
| I did two other... | ||
| I did a different event my freshman year. | ||
| I did a different event my sophomore year. | ||
| Junior year, I did Extemporaneous Speaking. | ||
| And in this event, you would go in, and it was different than any other event. | ||
| So you'd go to the tournament or whatever, and... | ||
| Everybody else would be practicing their speeches, memorizing, whatever. | ||
| For extemporaneous speakers, you would all meet in the library. | ||
| Every team member who was doing that event would meet in the library. | ||
| So all the extemp people from all the different schools, all the different teams would go to the library. | ||
| And you would get called up one by one and pull three slips of paper out of an envelope at random. | ||
| And the three slips of paper had a topic on them, a current events topic. | ||
| They were questions. | ||
| And you'd be able to pull three and you'd pick one. | ||
| And you would give a speech about that. | ||
| You'd have 45 minutes to prepare a speech that is seven minutes long. | ||
| That's why it's extemporaneous. | ||
| It's off the cuff. | ||
| So you go into the library. | ||
| They call you up one by one. | ||
| You pick out of a hat. | ||
| And you get three. | ||
| It's a blind draw. | ||
| And you get to pick the one that you're most prepared for. | ||
| Now, here's the catch. | ||
| Here's what makes you might think that sounds easy. | ||
| It's not. | ||
| Because every speech, you have to have six full citations. | ||
| Meaning, you have to have a publication. | ||
| You have to have the date and the quote. | ||
| And you couldn't use the internet. | ||
| So you had to sit at a table with no cards and a pen, and you'd actually have to bring a physical box of news stories that you had printed out in advance of the tournament. | ||
| You'd actually have to go on the internet, do research, print articles on fucking paper, and put them in a file, in like a filing box, inside of files, by category. | ||
| So one category might be healthcare, one might be the Middle East, one might be the economy. | ||
| And you'd know what your research was. | ||
| You'd have to go and pick these topics and you'd have to evaluate, which topic do I have the most research on? | ||
| And then you have to go and sit and And you get 45 minutes to prepare a seven-minute speech with six sources, meaning you have to pull these clippings and memorize the date, the publication, and the information. | ||
| So you'd have to say, you know, maybe one question was, talk about the rise of the Houthi rebels in Yemen. | ||
| You know, that was going on at the time in like 2014, 2015. You know, one of the questions would be like, what will the effect of the Houthi rebels coming to power in Yemen be? | ||
| And you'd have to say, well, the effect will be, one, this expands Iran's influence in the region. | ||
| Two, this is going to draw Saudi Arabia into the war. | ||
| And three, it's going to have an effect on oil prices. | ||
| And for each point, you need two citations. | ||
| You need to say, according to Associated Press on February 6, 2014, The Houthis gained control of Yemen after they overthrew the government, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| You have to memorize all that, write out a note card, and then memorize the speech. | ||
| And then, boom, you'd have to give the speech. | ||
| And I would literally show up, and I would just... | ||
| I hated speech team. | ||
| You know, the people were nice enough, but it was basically like theater, and I didn't like that. | ||
| All the people on the speech team were either girls or gay guys. | ||
| And I was really in my heart of hearts like a model UN guy. | ||
| I love model United Nations. | ||
| And model UN and speech had a huge rivalry. | ||
| So I didn't take it seriously. | ||
| I was like, fuck these people. | ||
| I thought this was about politics. | ||
| You know, when I signed up for speech team, I thought it was like a political thing and then it's like a theater thing. | ||
| So I picked the most political event. | ||
| And so I would show up and just raw dog it. | ||
| I would sit on the back of the bus, put my headphones in. | ||
| I go to the thing and then I would make a point to not practice. | ||
| I would literally sit there. | ||
| I'd write my note card and then I would just sit there and And I would just go over it in my head internally. | ||
| Everybody else would be like talking to the wall. | ||
| Everybody else, it was so fucking cringe. | ||
| Everybody else would be like, they would write out their speech and then they'd stand in the hallway in front of like a locker because it took place at like high schools. | ||
| And they would be giving the speech to the locker. | ||
| You'd literally walk up and down the hall and there'd be 25 people like giving a speech to the locker. | ||
| It's like that gif of the black guy talking to a brick wall. | ||
| They'd literally be there like, And they'd be giving a speech to the wall. | ||
| And I'm like, fuck that. | ||
| I'm raw-dogging it. | ||
| I'm not giving a speech to the wall. | ||
| I said, I'm going to stand there menacingly. | ||
| I'm going to stand there leering out the window with my arms folded. | ||
| And I wanted them to watch me not take it seriously. | ||
| Like, I wanted the supervisor to watch me not give a shit. | ||
| I wanted them to watch me and question, why is he not taking it seriously? | ||
| Why isn't he practicing? | ||
| So that I could go in and just be like, I don't need to practice. | ||
| This is stupid, you know? | ||
| And then I would go in and blow them all away. | ||
| I did no clippings. | ||
| My coach hated me because I never clipped anything. | ||
| She would be like, you gotta do more clippings. | ||
| I'm like, I don't need that. | ||
| I'll just use the same ones from last week. | ||
| And I remember there was one guy. | ||
| I beat him three weeks in a row. | ||
| Literally, I came first, he came second three weeks in a row. | ||
| And he was like... | ||
| The biggest try-hard ever. | ||
| These speech people, they took it really seriously. | ||
| They would basically cheat because they would come with these, like, elaborate, pre-written, like, preambles. | ||
| You know, it's like a basic five-paragraph structure, introduction, three points, conclusion. | ||
| And it was like a cliché. | ||
| They would all come in with these elaborate, pre-written introductions and And they would always relate it to like Greek mythology. | ||
| And they would all do these really like overly choreographed. | ||
| It was like a very particular style. | ||
| And they'd go in and be like, the Greek myth of Sisyphus. | ||
| He's pushing the boulder up. | ||
| That's kind of like how Barack Obama can't overcome Congress. | ||
| It was so fucking gay. | ||
| And I would come in there and I would give just the most off-the-wall... | ||
| One time I went in there, I actually lost because of this. | ||
| It was about Obama or something. | ||
| I forget what the actual topic was, but I came in and said something like, it was like a baseball analogy. | ||
| And I was like, well, Barack Obama could be forgiven for not understanding the rules of baseball, given that he was born in Kenya. | ||
| And you've got to keep in mind, that's not super edgy now, but back in those days, super edgy, and the judges were extremely liberal. | ||
| So I would go in and just say crazy shit like that, and this guy would come in week after week, And kept getting more desperate. | ||
| It was crazy because, you know, the way it works is you would go and you do three rounds, you know, where, you know, you and the other extent people, you go into a room and you give your speech. | ||
| Next guy comes in, gives his speech, sits down. | ||
| Next guy comes in, gives his speech, sits down. | ||
| You do three rounds like that. | ||
| They pick the top scorer. | ||
| Whoever had the highest average of the three rounds, the top seven or six, go to the final round. | ||
| You get one last round. | ||
| You write one more speech. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| Make or break, you know, sudden death, last round. | ||
| And I remember I watched his three speeches. | ||
| Week after week, I watched. | ||
| And each time in the finals round, he kept getting more and more desperate. | ||
| Like, the first time it was like a normal try-hard speech. | ||
| The next time he, like, sang in the speech... | ||
| He sang. | ||
| And I remember looking at the judge. | ||
| I was like, are you kidding? | ||
| Look at this idiot. | ||
| You can't sing in this event. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| He's having a hard time tonight. | ||
| And then, you know, the best part about it was at the end of the day, you would go to the auditorium for the award ceremony and they would do one event after the other. | ||
| I recognize maybe the story isn't that interesting anymore, but I'm going to plow ahead anyway. | ||
| And so we would go to the awards ceremony, and the way they do it is they talk about the finalists, you know, and then they call out in descending order the top-placed contenders, you know. | ||
| So they'll say, in seventh place, from whatever, so-and-so, come get your award, stand on the stage. | ||
| In sixth place, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| And so literally three weeks in a row, this guy, you know, it'd be like me and him. | ||
| They'd call third place, and then me and him would be there. | ||
| It's like, oh boy, who's going to get second? | ||
| And then, you know, presumptively, who then would be first? | ||
| And three weeks in a row, he heard his name called. | ||
| In second, this guy, and in first, me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
In second, this guy. | |
| And I would be the... | ||
| Or rather, you didn't come down to the stage. | ||
| You were all on the stage, and they pulled you off, actually. | ||
| And three weeks in a row, I was the last guy standing. | ||
| So, anyway. | ||
| All this is to say, you may know me. | ||
| You may have been watching my show for a year, two years. | ||
| I've been Nick Fuentes since 2012, at least. | ||
| I've been Nick Fuentes since... | ||
| Yeah, probably 2012, maybe earlier. | ||
| And, you know, so it's not about the prep. | ||
| It's about who you are as a person. | ||
| If you're not, if you are not a real human being, you can never be a good broadcaster. | ||
| You know, there's like an innate talent and then there's just chutzpah. | ||
| There's like an X factor. | ||
| And if you don't have that, I don't think you can ever be a good broadcaster. | ||
| And then, you know, if you do have any ability, point is you have to practice it for a decade, you know. | ||
| I did Model UN, speech, radio, TV in high school. | ||
| I did all those things in high school for four years. | ||
| Every week, I did Model UN, which is public speaking. | ||
| Every other week, I did Speech Team, which is public speaking. | ||
| Every week, I did a radio show. | ||
| Two hours, public speaking. | ||
| My senior year, I did a TV show. | ||
| And then I've been doing this show for eight years. | ||
| So, you just have to love talking. | ||
| You just have to, and you know, really have a desire to be good at it. | ||
| No amount of preparation will do that for you. | ||
| No amount of pre-stream prep work. | ||
| How do you put together your notes? | ||
| How do you do your show prep? | ||
| As if I told you it would unlock the secrets, it wouldn't. | ||
| It wouldn't. | ||
| So... | ||
| How do you do your show prep? | ||
| Like, if I put my notes in front of you, you could do nothing with it. | ||
| You could do nothing with it. | ||
| I could give you my notes. | ||
| I could give you the best notes I've ever written. | ||
| You could do nothing with it. | ||
| Because it's not about the notes. | ||
| You know what I do for notes? | ||
| I take down two articles. | ||
| That's all. | ||
| When I pull up my Google Docs, it is two abridged news articles and That's it. | ||
| So, you know. | ||
| That's why I tell people not to do content because if you were meant to do content, you would know it because you would love it and you would be doing it your entire life. | ||
| And if you're not, then it's not for you. | ||
| It never was for you. | ||
| Unless you're someone who is a performer. | ||
| Unless you are a natural performer. | ||
| Unless you are someone who just never did it online on the internet. | ||
| But unless you are a natural born performer, like people think you're funny, people like you. | ||
| It's just not for you. | ||
| And it's not for everybody. | ||
| So it's not about, that's my lesson. | ||
| It's not about the prep. | ||
| It's about, you know, whether you're born for it. | ||
| And if you're born for it, you love it, you're drawn to it, you do it all the time. | ||
| I mean, I was really doing a show before I was even in front of a camera because I just like the performance and I like the dialogue and I love the subject matter. | ||
| So... | ||
| Yeah, so it's really, it's that simple. | ||
| I remember all my friends from grade school got degrees in sports broadcasting or sports management. | ||
| And it's like, hey, pal, you know, liking watching football doesn't qualify you to professionally talk about football on television. | ||
| Hate to break it to you. | ||
| But that's just a little resentment. | ||
| But anyway... | ||
| So that's the lesson. | ||
| And there's a lesson in that for anybody. | ||
| The sooner you find out, this may sound like super generic advice, but the sooner that you find out that thing that you love, then the sooner you know what to do with your life. | ||
| That's what I did. | ||
| I just decided I was going to do the thing I love and no one was going to tell me otherwise and I literally never looked back. | ||
| I remember throughout high school, I just loved politics and I loved talking about it. | ||
| And the only things I gave a shit about were the things that allowed me to do that. | ||
| So Model UN, reading books, speech team... | ||
| And consequently, those were the only things I gave a shit about. | ||
| I didn't do homework. | ||
| I didn't care about it. | ||
| I didn't care about marching band or my instrument. | ||
| I didn't care about anything like that. | ||
| My parents hated it. | ||
| Me and my dad were at war every day throughout high school because he'd be on my case. | ||
| Your fucking grades are terrible. | ||
| You got to do your homework. | ||
| And, uh, and I told him, I'm like, look, I'm like, clearly this is what I'm going to do with my life. | ||
| This is what I'm investing my time in. | ||
| I want to do politics and And I'm doing politics. | ||
| I'm like, yeah, yeah, whatever. | ||
| I'll do enough homework to graduate high school. | ||
| I said, but I'm going to... | ||
| And even in college. | ||
| In college, they were telling me, you got to take science classes. | ||
| You got to take fucking Spanish. | ||
| I said, I want to do politics. | ||
| I don't want to do gen eds. | ||
| And I did. | ||
| And I dropped out and I did politics. | ||
| Now I do politics. | ||
| So, now, granted, you also have to have an aptitude. | ||
| You have to also be really good at it. | ||
| If you're an idiot, it's not going to get you anywhere. | ||
| You should probably be a line cook. | ||
| You know, if you're some dumb idiot, you should be working some job with repeatable, simple tasks and adult supervision. | ||
| But if you have any kind of objectively real skill or aptitude and if you have a passion for something, you just have to decide to do that. | ||
| And I always figured if I just become really, really, really good at something, it will be valuable and people will pay for it. | ||
| That's why I was never hung up on the money. | ||
| I was never hung up on the other shit. | ||
| I just had a value mindset. | ||
| That's something that you'll learn about in investing or in business. | ||
| If you have value creation at the fore... | ||
| It's really hard to mess up. | ||
| Now, it's still important to get contracts right. | ||
| I've learned that the hard way. | ||
| It's still important to get personnel right, and I've learned that the hard way. | ||
| It's still important to get monetization and your business plan right, and I've learned that the hard way as well. | ||
| But what comes first is the value creation. | ||
| If you can create something of value by developing a skill, a product, whatever, then the other stuff is pretty accessible. | ||
| But that is, I think, what people lack. | ||
| Everybody wants to be rich. | ||
| Nobody wants to make value. | ||
| Everybody wants to get ahead quickly by making these little scams so that they could be lazy. | ||
| But that's not actually how to be successful. | ||
| I don't even I don't even work extremely hard. | ||
| I work pretty hard. | ||
| I work a lot. | ||
| I live and breathe this. | ||
| I don't even think of it as work. | ||
| But I've been successful almost entirely just because I just invested in a skill, developed it. | ||
| I just put it out there. | ||
| And I'm probably not even operating at 100% capacity. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So... | |
| Moral of the story, be born really intelligent and with a skill and then develop it and you can do whatever you want. | ||
| That's the moral of the story, but people get caught up in this other stuff. | ||
| And, you know, they're important questions, but like, I don't know. | ||
| That's my overall advice to the youngsters. | ||
| Find out what you're good at, not Fortnite. | ||
| Some people have unironically said that to me. | ||
| I'm going to be a professional Fortnite player. | ||
| And to those people I say, well, are you playing Fortnite 12 hours a day? | ||
| No. | ||
| Are you playing competitive? | ||
| No. | ||
| Well, then you're not being serious. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So... | |
| But really, the only people that can afford to be anything other than a wage slave are people that are obsessed. | ||
| People that have a black hole inside of them that can never be filled. | ||
| It's a pathological, self-destructive obsession. | ||
| And people think that's cool or they think it's enviable. | ||
| And it's really not. | ||
| People think they want that. | ||
| They don't. | ||
| You know, because most people, the vast majority of people are pathetic subhumans that just want to, and like, no, it's not pathetic, it's fine. | ||
| You know, but a lot of people really do just want a wife, Jack. | ||
| That's why people were so offended by my criticism, because a lot of people, at the end of the day... | ||
| They really are mediocre and they just want a wife, Jack. | ||
| They really just want to watch their stupid entertainment. | ||
| They want to have their stupid wife and they really just want to do their little thing. | ||
| They don't really want it badly. | ||
| They don't really have what it takes. | ||
| If they were in an environment like this, they would be utterly fucking pulverized and destroyed. | ||
| Because the pressure is too much. | ||
| The pressure of an extremely competitive environment, the sacrifices, it's just too much. | ||
| You know, because an ordinary person, they need other things and if they can't have them, they start to come apart. | ||
| And you have to be willing to sacrifice. | ||
| It has to be singular focus. | ||
| And people like that are going to be the innovators. | ||
| People like that are going to be the state of the art of the field. | ||
| Everybody else is just being told what to do. | ||
| That's just life, I guess. | ||
|

|
But anyway, but that's that. | |
| Canada potentially becoming a 51st state. | ||
| Don't mean to bring it all back to Whitejack. | ||
| Would inadvertently give U.S. citizenship to all the Indians living there, and they would just move here. | ||
| No thanks. | ||
| Well, I don't think that's actually a real proposition. | ||
| I think that's a joke. | ||
| So, well, what it really is is pressure. | ||
| What it really is is Trump is trying to pressure Trudeau To make a deal on things like fentanyl, things like trade. | ||
| So that's really, it's classic Trump. | ||
| This is classic like, it's like when Trump said, my button is bigger and mine actually works. | ||
| You know, it's the same deal. | ||
| So I wouldn't take that seriously. | ||
| Another food recommendation. | ||
| The Dearborn in downtown. | ||
| Their fish and chips are the best in the world. | ||
| The chef even beat the world famous Bobby Flay with that dish. | ||
| You'll thank me later. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know. | ||
| I'm not really into fish and chips. | ||
| I don't really like whitefish, to be honest. | ||
| So, maybe I'll do the coffee shop, but I don't know if I'm doing fish and chips. | ||

| Thank you for the big super chat. | ||
| We love El Oso. | ||
| One of our goaded content creators, it does. | ||
| Well, and that's really, it distills the point because, you know, on the one hand they say, oh no, this is the Trump Republican Party. | ||
| We're not about Reagan. | ||
| Suddenly they all have the balls to criticize Reagan. | ||
| At the same time, the policies are basically the same. | ||
| Despite all the rhetoric, because that's really all it is, rhetoric about trade, rhetoric about immigration, rhetoric about foreign policy. | ||
| You're getting peace through strength. | ||
| You're getting tax cuts for the rich and corporations. | ||
| The tariffs are basically for show. | ||
| It's not like a real industrial policy. | ||
| It's not like a coherent, systematic revision of the free trade system. | ||
| The only thing that's actually meaningfully different is that they're socially liberal. | ||
| Have you noticed that? | ||
| Because the Reagan coalition had social conservatives. | ||
| The Reagan coalition was free market guys, cold warriors, foreign policy hawks, neocons, and social conservatives. | ||
| Those were the three factions. | ||
| Free market hawks and social conservatives, you still have the free market people. | ||
| Mike Johnson, when he talks about what a Republican is, it's individual rights, limited government, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| That's him. | ||
| The hawks are obviously there. | ||
| Rubio, Hegseth, Waltz. | ||
| The only thing that's missing is any social conservatism. | ||
| The only thing that's missing is they drop their opposition to gay marriage, basically abortion, feminism. | ||
| some. | ||

| Someone posted that, but I don't know if that's legit, so I don't want to repeat that. | ||
| Got it. | ||
| Well, I don't think they're really the same people. | ||
| I mean, the people that are attacking us are not the James... | ||
| He doesn't really have, like, a crowd. | ||

| Yeah, I should have told the cops, hey, yeah, I am a white supremacist, actually. | ||
| I should have tried to red pill him on race politics. | ||
| People are like, he's a cock. | ||
| He said he's Mexican. | ||
| It's like, no, you're right. | ||
| I should have said to the cops, yeah, you know what I am. | ||
| Or I should have said, well, actually, I'm a white advocate. | ||
| It's always something, right? | ||
| Well, and here's the best part. | ||
| When I'm not getting in trouble, they say, hey, why isn't he getting in trouble? | ||
