| I'm just gonna go to everybody away. | ||
| Welcome to the TimCast IRL podcast. | ||
| Make sure you hit that like button as we get started. | ||
| We got some crazy news. | ||
| We got some crazy news, federal law. | ||
| Did you hear that, Lydia? | ||
| Adam. | ||
| Whoa, whoa, whoa, Adam. | ||
| What is it? | ||
| It's on you. | ||
| It's on you. | ||
| Don't move. | ||
| Something's touching me. | ||
| Yeah, it's a Biden. | ||
| I feel something's touching me right now. | ||
| I don't know what it is. | ||
| Oh, God! | ||
| Oh! | ||
| We've had... I've been Biden'd. | ||
| We've had a... I feel so dirty. | ||
| Unfortunately, they've been roving bands of Bidens just lurking around the neighborhood sniffing children and one of them must have got in. | ||
| Can you close the window? | ||
| He must have got in through the window. | ||
| Where's that bug blaster? | ||
| Yeah, where's the spray? | ||
|

|
Here. | |
| Here, let me, I'll spritz him next time. | ||
| Spritz, spritz him. | ||
| Actually, we should have spritzed him from the beginning. | ||
| Don't worry, I'll get him, I'll get him. | ||
| Spritz him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The Biden, the Biden got Adam. | |
| Okay, we have too much fun with the Biden. | ||
| We have a Biden. | ||
| I don't think we've had enough fun with the Biden. | ||
| No, it's gonna be great. | ||
| We have a bunch of ideas for like a Jaws theme of like, you know, like Adam walking into the house and you hear sniffing getting louder. | ||
| And Adam's like, huh, huh, what is it? | ||
| And then the camera like zooms in and chases after Adam. | ||
| He's like, no! | ||
| And then the Biden is on him. | ||
| The Biden. | ||
| The sniffing. | ||
| We actually planned that out at the very last minute. | ||
| Adam was like, I'll sniff. | ||
| We'll just go with it. | ||
| I'm like, alright. | ||
| I'll start sniffing while you're talking and introducing the show. | ||
| Good play, good play. | ||
| Welcome to the show, everybody. | ||
| I'm Tim, that's Adam. | ||
| What's up, everybody? | ||
| I'm Adam. | ||
| Hey, what up? | ||
| That's Lydia. | ||
| I'm over here, yeah. | ||
| And we are on day, I think tonight would be day 48 of the Portland Riots. | ||
| 48. | ||
| 48. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Yeah, so the acting secretary of the DHS put out a statement saying, like, federal officers have been basically under siege by violent anarchists for 47 days and the city has abandoned this area. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| And so what they're basically saying is they refuse to cede the federal courthouse to the far left. | ||
| But the politicians in Oregon are calling the federal officers occupying armies And so they've put him in a position where they won't enforce any of their laws, giving the marshals no choice but to defend the courthouse. | ||
| And then when they do... Occupying army. | ||
| Occupying army. | ||
| It's Trump's fault. | ||
| That's exactly what they wanted to happen. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Well, now the feds have figured out a way to deal with the problem. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Friends, are you familiar with the term black bagging? | ||
| I just watched V for Vendetta the other day. | ||
| Did you really? | ||
| Yeah, I did. | ||
| It's a good movie. | ||
| One of Creedy's black bags. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| So it's a slang term for when a van pulls up, people jump out, throw the bag over your head, and throw you in the van. | ||
| And perhaps a bit of an exaggeration here, but they're literally in Portland. | ||
| Feds are pulling up in vans that are unmarked. | ||
| They're jumping out and snatching antifa and throwing them in the vans and taking off. | ||
| Yep, that's true. | ||
| I'm sorry, it's funny. | ||
| It's been a month and a half of these people committing felonies and stuff, and the local jurisdiction won't hold them accountable. | ||
| They caught an arsonist, apparently, who had bragged about it, and the grand jury said no indictment. | ||
| So I'll be fair and say maybe they didn't have a good case, maybe there really wasn't probable cause for a trial or anything, but when you have all these rioters just being let go, man... | ||
| So we got a bunch of stories we'll talk about today. | ||
| We've got the ongoing riots. | ||
| There's another crazy story. | ||
| Apparently, this one's just so typical. | ||
| The media's just taken a quote from Kayleigh McEnany totally out of context. | ||
| Yeah, totally. | ||
| And they ran with it like crazy. | ||
| And the reason I want to highlight this is because I love ragging on the media so much, as most of you know. | ||
| The reason is they lie, and this may be the easiest, like the best example of how they really can twist words And you know, when Kayleigh or Trump or anyone in the Trump administration is slightly not precise enough, they are like piranhas. | ||
| They're like, oh, oh, we got them! | ||
| Look, everybody, we got them! | ||
| And they run with it. | ||
| Give them an inch. | ||
| Yep, exactly. | ||
| They're sitting there waiting for you to say a word that they can just strip out of context. | ||
| They're just waiting. | ||
| So as soon as you're not precise enough in your language, We got him. | ||
| We got him again. | ||
| And now all the Democrats are running around going, like, we got Kayleigh! | ||
| They don't believe in science! | ||
| They admitted it! | ||
| And it's like, she didn't say any of that. | ||
| But there's good news. | ||
| Along with the Vox layoffs, the Guardian layoffs, we have a big story about many, many more layoffs. | ||
| So they can sit there and screech all they want and lie to everybody. | ||
| And in the end, they all lose their jobs. | ||
| And then we got a bunch of other stories, too. | ||
| I don't know exactly what we'll get to, but Majid Nawaz, who is a How do you describe him? | ||
| He's the founder of the Quilliam Foundation. | ||
| Yeah, he was a former. | ||
| He was a radical. | ||
| Was he not a terrorist at one point? | ||
| He was, and he was in prison. | ||
| He was reformed, yeah. | ||
| Now he's like an intellectual dark web personality. | ||
| Well, he's engaging in a hunger strike to call out China for the concentration camps. | ||
| And I think, you know, he's basically said, left and right, none of this. | ||
| We gotta come together now. | ||
| Definitely. | ||
| And he's right. | ||
| He's absolutely right. | ||
| Yeah, when I first heard about this, I mean, we were on the show. | ||
| I think it was like maybe the second or third week we were doing the show, and you told me about it, and I was blown away. | ||
| The more I look into it, it's crazy. | ||
| There's a video going viral right now. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And we've got it. | ||
| I think we can show it, because it's not graphic or anything, it's just people being loaded onto a train. | ||
| Yeah, but it's a hauntingly familiar sight from something in our past, and I think you'll know what we're talking about when you see it. | ||
| So, to Majid, he's right about coming together to fight this. | ||
| We also do have an election coming up, and what's worrying to me is, I believe if Joe Biden becomes president, they're going to reopen the gates and allow China back in. | ||
| I think so too. | ||
| I mean, it's the establishment, be it Republican or Democrat, for the longest time, were allowing China to extract our manufacturing base. | ||
| I read this article from The Week, and this dude went, Damn, man. | ||
| He was like, you have one faction that is screaming about the orange dictator while Trump is calling out the concentration camps and the horrifying atrocities of China. | ||
| And I'm like, whoa! | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| I mean, H.G. | ||
| Barr went off today about China. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| China? | ||
| H.G., I'm sorry, H.G. | ||
| H.G. | ||
| Barr, yeah, yeah. | ||
| The Attorney General today. | ||
| They're going to start seizing Hollywood assets, I'm willing to bet. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| So the executive order from Trump is like, we can, it's basically you can freeze, suspend transactions and your assets. | ||
| Not just Hollywood. | ||
| He was calling out big companies too. | ||
| But Hollywood's the most... It's the biggest target. | ||
| So you have all these Hollywood productions that are like, what do you want China? | ||
| We'll do whatever you say. | ||
| We'll make propaganda for you. | ||
| We'll put in whatever you want. | ||
| In that movie Abominable, they literally put in Chinese propaganda. | ||
| They added Chinese propaganda. | ||
| Now they think it was like an animator based in Southeast Asia somewhere, maybe China, who then snuck it in and they just ran with it. | ||
| Well, he talked about how Dr. Strange, too. | ||
| Yeah, dude. | ||
| It's supposed to be a Tibetan monk, but they're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. | ||
| It should be a Celtic monk, because you get political, you lose one billion customers. | ||
| That's what they said. | ||
| They were saying that, well, you know, it's an old stereotype, and it might be offensive to some. | ||
| So then they whitewash the character. | ||
| Now, it's still offensive, but then it turns out it's because China doesn't believe Tibet exists. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So you can't have a Tibetan monk character in a movie. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| So it's a Celtic monk. | ||
| It's a crazy world we live in, man. | ||
| Things are getting absolutely off the rails. | ||
| But let's get started. | ||
| Unless you wanted to add something? | ||
| Well, I was just gonna say, you mentioned the manufacturing in China, and I didn't know it was 80% of all of our imports come from China. | ||
| 80% of all of our imports come from China. | ||
| That blew me away. | ||
| We're going to war, baby. | ||
| I think we're closest we've ever been in my life. | ||
| To an actual world conflict. | ||
| To an actual world conflict, yeah, exactly. | ||
| This executive order, I don't think people understand the severity of it. | ||
| No, I don't think so. | ||
| And I wonder why it's not being talked about. | ||
| Like, is anyone going to talk about the potential for, like, Hollywood movie industries to get just, like, their assets frozen by the federal government? | ||
| Because they're putting propaganda for China? | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Or the NBA? | ||
| That's what he was talking about today. | ||
| The more he spoke, I had to watch it over again. | ||
| I'm like, did I really just hear all of this stuff? | ||
| And check this out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| With the free Hong Kong thing for the NBA. | ||
| Right. | ||
| The NBA custom jerseys blocked you from riding free Hong Kong. | ||
| They could argue, under the executive order, you are repressing the people of Hong Kong, you are inhibiting free speech related to Hong Kong. | ||
| You're absolutely right. | ||
| What happens when they come in, like NBA, so the NBA is like, no, no, no, no, it was an accident, it was an accident. | ||
| Yeah, we'll see, man. | ||
| I think a lot of these ultra woke companies will whip into shape once the federal government, you know, cocks one of their rifles. | ||
| And they're going to be like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, anything you say. | ||
| And we got to do it soon because Once China has enough money, then you're gonna end up with these corporations being like, hmm, a billion dollars from China or a billion dollars in the U.S. | ||
| Well, China's gonna give me a little bit extra. | ||
| They're gonna go with China. | ||
| That's why it's like you get to that point where China's got more value and then people are gonna just, already the NBA is bending over for them. | ||
| That is exactly what he was talking about. | ||
| Bill Barr. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, that's what he's saying. | ||
| He's like, we have to be wary of what they're doing. | ||
| They are doing like this... I forget the... Blitzkrieg. | ||
| Oh, wow. | ||
| That's what he called it? | ||
| That's straight up what he said. | ||
| Wow, dude, it's getting spicy. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| China v. Retaliation. | ||
| Dude, he went off. | ||
| Let's start with the main story here. | ||
| Federal law enforcement using unmarked vehicles to grab protesters off Portland streets. | ||
| Let's be honest, there's a word for this. | ||
| It's black bagging. | ||
| The story, I'm just gonna, I'm not gonna bury the lead on this one because I think it's hilarious. | ||
| Unmarked vehicles pull up, feds jump out, and then walk up to Antifa and just snatch him up. | ||
| Gone. | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| I mean, it's funny to think because I'm thinking about like when I was a kid, you know, watching, like when I was younger, watching V for Vendetta or any of these movies. | ||
| You'd imagine that anybody carrying out these governmental black baggings were the bad guys? | ||
| That's a good point. | ||
| No, not here. | ||
| 47 days these people have been allowed to throw bricks and molotovs trying to burn down a federal courthouse. | ||
| Yeah, you're not the good guys. | ||
| You're a bunch of crazy people. | ||
| And the local government won't enforce any of these laws. | ||
| So the feds are like, the easiest way to make arrests is just, to be fair, they're not showing up to their homes, you know, in the middle of the night and literally putting a black bag over their head and then cracking them with a truncheon or something. | ||
| They're waiting until they start walking away from the courthouse and then come around when they're by themselves and arrest them for the riot they just partook in. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| But it is still funny to call it, you know, them getting black bagged. | ||
| All right, let's read. | ||
| They got an update here. | ||
| They say, in the early hours of July 15th, after a night spent protesting, Ah, peaceful protesting. | ||
| That's what you call it when you throw bricks in a building and try to crack someone over the head with a hammer. | ||
| At the Multnomah County Justice Center and Marco Hatfield Federal Courthouse, Mark Pettibone and his friend Connor O'Shea decided to head home. | ||
| It had been a calm night compared to most protesting downtown. | ||
| Okay, I am no longer going to use the word protesting. | ||
| I'm not going to editorialize the way they do. | ||
| They say, uh, by 2 a.m. | ||
| law enforcement hadn't used any tear gas. | ||
| With only a few exceptions, both the Portland Police Bureau and federal law enforcement officers had stayed out of sight. | ||
| A block west of Chapman Square, Pettibone and O'Shea bumped into a group of people who warned them that people in camouflage were driving around the area in unmarked minivans grabbing people off the street. | ||
| So that was terrifying to hear, Pettibone said. | ||
| They had barely made it half a block when an unmarked minivan pulled up in front of them. | ||
| I see guys in camo, O'Shea said. | ||
| Four or five of them pop out, open the door, and it was just like, OS, I don't know who you are or what you want with us. | ||
| Federal law enforcement officers have been using unmarked vehicles to drive around downtown Portland and detain rioters since at least July 14th. | ||
| Personal accounts and multiple videos posted online show the officers driving up to people, detaining individuals with no explanation of why they are being arrested and driving off. | ||
| I'm going to stop right here and tell you about one of the most annoying things in the world to me. | ||
| What's that? | ||
| There's a really famous viral video from Occupy Wall Street where the woman is being arrested and she's yelling, I have not been read my rights. | ||
| They are not reading me my rights. | ||
| And I'm like, shut up. | ||
| They don't have to. | ||
| What do you think is going on? | ||
| Do you think they're going to get in trouble because they didn't Mirandize you? | ||
| They're not investigating you. | ||
| They watched you throw the brick. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So what people don't get is that reading someone's Miranda rights means they're investigating you and they need to collect evidence. | ||
| If the cop literally watches you throw a brick or swing a punch or obstruct a roadway, they don't need to read you your rights. | ||
| You just get arrested. | ||
| The evidence is their eyes and their witness statement. | ||
| I'm an officer. | ||
| The person swung at me. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| Go to court. | ||
| Your word versus their word. | ||
| I get it. | ||
| You know, see what happens. | ||
| Often the courts side with the cops. | ||
| It's not perfect. | ||
| But people seem to think that, like, no explanation for why they were being arrested. | ||
| They don't have to give you one! | ||
| And people also think that they get a phone call. | ||
| That's also not true either. | ||
| I want my phone call! | ||
| You don't get one. | ||
| If you're nice, they'll give you one. | ||
| They can contact your lawyer, though. | ||
| So you can tell them, you know, I need to talk to my lawyer. | ||
| Well, most times if you're in, like, the waiting area, like, in the cell, once you're, like, in the pen, there's a... They give you 50 cents. | ||
| For the most... I mean, they gave me 50 cents. | ||
| Probably depends on the jurisdiction. | ||
| Because I'll say, they didn't give me 50 cents. | ||
| That's all I'm gonna say about that. | ||
| But there's a payphone that you can use. | ||
| You can call someone and collect, I'm sure. | ||
| I got arrested for skateboarding once. | ||
| They took my shoelaces off my shoes. | ||
| That was really annoying because skater shoelaces are usually frayed. | ||
| And so putting them back in is a nightmare. | ||
| And I said, can I make a phone call? | ||
| And they said, yep. | ||
| And they walked me over to the phone. | ||
| That was it. | ||
| And then I couldn't get in touch with anybody. | ||
| And then I spent the night in jail. | ||
| And then the judge got really mad about it later. | ||
| But that's a different story. | ||
| But no, like, the journalists are writing that there's no explanation for why they're being arrested. | ||
| You were just at a riot. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Like you're literally outside of a courthouse rioting. | ||
| They caught you. | ||
| They're arresting you. | ||
| So they say the tactic appears to be another escalation in federal force deployed on Portland City streets as federal officers and Trump have said they plan to quell nightly protests outside the federal courthouse and Multnomah County Justice Center that have lasted for more than six weeks. | ||
| Yeah, maybe they gotta do something, okay? | ||
| Let me ask you, what's the alternative? | ||
| Should the feds just like, plow in with cow catchers and just barrel through these rioters? | ||
| Are they gonna run out full speed and just start slamming people to the ground? | ||
| It's a conflict they're trying to avoid. | ||
| And this seems to be a more peaceful, less violent way to actually grab people who've been rioting. | ||
| I'm gonna show you this, check this out. | ||
| Acting Secretary Wolf condemns the rampant long-lasting violence in Portland. | ||
| The city of Portland has been under siege for 47 straight days by a violent mob, while local political leaders refuse to restore order to protect their city. | ||
| Each night, lawless anarchists, I take issue with that term, destroy and desecrate property, including the federal courthouse, and attack the brave law enforcement officers protecting it. | ||
| You know what, man? | ||
| You know what would happen if the rioters just went home? | ||
| What? | ||
| Nothing would happen. | ||
| Yeah, nothing. | ||
| The law enforcement officers would be sitting in the office inside the building, probably talking about, I don't know, the latest episode of... I don't know, is anybody talking about Westworld anymore? | ||
| That show's kind of gone off the rails. | ||
| No. | ||
| What is anybody watching? | ||
| It came out and then it went. | ||
| Yeah, like, really fell fast. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What is it? | ||
| Whatever. | ||
| You get the point. | ||
| They're gonna be complaining about how there's no sports. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| They're gonna be sitting there being like, man, I can't wait for baseball to come back. | ||
| It's coming back next week out here. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Next week? | |
| A week from today? | ||
| Yeah, that's what... It's been reported by some outlets. | ||
| But nothing would happen. | ||
| The federal law enforcement aren't marching through the street and targeting people. | ||
| But now they're trying to make it seem like that because they're literally attacking a courthouse trying to burn it down. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And most people are saying, well, the riots are over. | ||
| No one's rioting anymore. | ||
| When this has been going on for six weeks. | ||
| Go ahead. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| They say, Pettibone did not escape the federal officers. | ||
| I am basically tossed into the van and I had my beanie pulled over my face. | ||
| This is a violation of human rights. | ||
| I am on the side of the protesters. | ||
| I'm kidding. | ||
| Beanie lives matter. | ||
| They pulled his beanie down. | ||
| How dare they? | ||
| So they pulled my beanie down over my face so I couldn't see and they held my hands over my head. | ||
| Weird. | ||
| weird. | ||
| Petit Bonhonneau-Chez Bull said they couldn't think of anything they might have done to | ||
| end up targeted by law enforcement. | ||
| They attended violent riots regularly, but they said they aren't instigators, they don't | ||
| spray paint buildings, shine laser pointers at officers, or do anything else other than | ||
| attend riots. | ||
| Which law enforcement have regularly deemed unlawful assemblies. | ||
| Yes, because they're riots. | ||
| Have you seen the videos? | ||
| Yeah, they're crazy. | ||
| They're just burning things. | ||
| They are not peaceful protests. | ||
| That is what is protected. | ||
| Thank you, some guy on Twitter. | ||
| This is a great story. | ||
| Let's read. | ||
| Blinded by his hat in an unmarked minivan full of armed people dressed in camouflage and body armor who hadn't identified themselves, Pettibone said he was driven around downtown before being unloaded inside the building. | ||
| He wouldn't learn until after his release that he had been inside the federal courthouse. | ||
| Wow, that's amazing. | ||
| So, these people leave the courthouse during the riot. | ||
| The van pulls up, snatches them, brings them back. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| Yeah, it is. | ||
| It was basically a process of facing many walls and corners as they patted me down and took my picture and rummaged through my belongings. | ||
| One of them said, this is a whole lot of nothing. | ||
| Pettibone said he was put into a cell. | ||
| Soon after, two officers came in to read him his Miranda rights. | ||
| Wow, that sounds like they're investigating him for probably conspiracy or something. | ||
| Yeah, maybe. | ||
| They didn't tell him why he was being arrested. | ||
| He said they asked him if he wanted to waive his rights and answer some questions, but Pettibone declined and said he wanted a lawyer. | ||
| The interview was terminated, and about 90 minutes later he was released. | ||
| He said he did not receive any paperwork, citation, or record of his arrest. | ||
| And I didn't... Did you? | ||
| Did they give you... I didn't get anything. They handed me my skateboards. | ||
| Have a nice day. | ||
| And I walked out. | ||
| I... Yeah. | ||
| I don't want to talk about it. People expect so much. | ||
| Oh. | ||
| I'm out. | ||
| I cannot confirm nor deny. | ||
| I just happened to be wearing black on a sidewalk in downtown Portland at the time, and that apparently is grounds for detaining me. | ||
| You know what, man? | ||
| Spare me the BS. | ||
| I don't buy it. | ||
| I've seen the videos of the ongoing attacks, and you know what? | ||
| If you show up to an event where you know for 47 days they're rioting violently and they plan to do so, And they tell you to wear all black to help them, yeah, you'll be arrested for being an accomplice. | ||
| Now you may not, you know, the charges might not stick, you may get away with it, but they specifically say wear all black on purpose so that they can get away with crimes. | ||
| If you shield them, you're helping them, you're an accomplice. | ||
| They say in a statement the U.S. | ||
| Marshals Service declined to comment on the practice of using unmarked vehicles, but said their officers had not arrested Pettibone. | ||
| All United States Marshals Service arrestees have public records of arrest documenting their charges. | ||
| Our agency did not arrest or detain Mark James Pettibone. | ||
| Now that's weird. | ||
| Yeah, it is. | ||
| Department of Homeland Security officials did not immediately respond to a request for comment. | ||
| It's like stop and frisk meets Guantanamo Bay, said attorney Juan Chavez, director of the Civil Rights Project at the Oregon Justice Resource Center. | ||
| Chavez has worked on litigation surrounding the weeks of rioting. | ||
| Yeah, okay. | ||
| He called the arrests terrifying. | ||
| You have laws regarding probable cause that can lead to arrests. | ||
| It sounds more like abduction. | ||
| It sounds like they're kidnapping people off the streets. | ||
| Let me ask you something. | ||
| If you got arrested because you were at a riot, and they decided not to charge you and they released you, would you be complaining about it? | ||
| No, I'd be stoked. | ||
| I was in D.C. | ||
| during the inaugural riots. | ||
| Donald Trump was being inaugurated, rioting broke out, the police kettled the entire crowd, that's what it's called, and I was trapped inside. | ||
| They had told me I was arrested. | ||
| Eventually, we talked about it before, I was able to get out by just saying I'm pressed, and then eventually they pulled out the press, and I was very happy to have been released. | ||
| That's about it. | ||
| I'm not complaining. | ||
| I understand why they're arresting everybody. | ||
| They're trying to politicize it all, though. | ||
| That makes sense that they're complaining. | ||
| As we said earlier, it's a trap. | ||
| They wanted Trump to pull the trigger so they can use it against him. | ||
|

|
Look! | |
| He's the authoritarian president we always thought he was! | ||
| This proves it! | ||
|
unidentified
|
See? | |
| Occupying army! | ||
| I was out peacefully protesting, and I was waving a sign, and then the bad men wearing all camouflage came and they took me, kidnapped me. | ||
| They pulled my beanie down! | ||
| You pulled my beanie down in the car? | ||
| Now that I can understand. | ||
| That is a courageous vile- I'm kidding. | ||
| Let me fix this. | ||
| You were at a violent riot, the riots have been going on for six weeks, and they were investigating you. | ||
| And you got temporarily detained. | ||
| You're lucky that's the worst of it. | ||
| And then released. | ||
| And then released without charge. | ||
| He wasn't in for days. | ||
| 90 minutes. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Under two hours? | ||
| Are you serious? | ||
| And you're complaining? | ||
| I got to spend something like 12 hours in jail. | ||
| Yeah, spending the night in jail sucks. | ||
| Because I was skateboarding in Chicago. | ||
| I also spent the night in jail. | ||
| It's not a fun thing to do. | ||
| It was cold, it was bright, and I was on a concrete slab because I was skateboarding. | ||
| Someone really nice actually gave me some toilet paper to use as a pillow. | ||
| You know, when I got arrested, this was down in Chicago, the jail was a big concrete block that you could sit on. | ||
| I think I used my shoe as a pillow. | ||
| There was no contact with anyone else and there were people screaming. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, that sucks. | |
| Like the whole night, screaming. | ||
| Sleeping with the lights on, cold, on a concrete slab. | ||
| Wasn't fun. I had no idea what time it was, how long I'd been in there. | ||
| Just no windows or anything. And then finally they came and let me out. | ||
| And they handed me my board back and they said something about like, | ||
| you have a court date, whatever. | ||
| When I went to court, the judge was like, What is this? Get out of my courtroom. | ||
| He was like, he was really angry. | ||
| Like, he was really offended, I think. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But they showed up. | ||
| They were trying to prosecute. | ||
| Like, the people who, there were security guards at a federal building who wanted me arrested, actually showed up. | ||
| And the judge was like, are you kidding me? | ||
| Right. | ||
| Some 19-year-old kid is skateboarding, you know, on your building's sidewalk? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Don't you have better things to do? | ||
| Huh? | ||
| Go do better things. | ||
| I didn't cry about it. I got released and then I was like, oh, now what? | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| And then I went to court. I was just sitting there and I was like, oh, now what? | ||
| And they told me to leave and that was it. | ||
| You know, what can you do? | ||
| These people are like, oh, I've been arrested. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| I wasn't arrested. | ||
| I was released after 90 minutes. | ||
| They didn't even arrest me! | ||
| You know what it is? | ||
| Maybe the real reason he's upset is because he's not good enough to be arrested. | ||
| Why aren't you arresting me? | ||
| Hey, wait, are you arresting him? | ||
| Come on, I've been riding here all month! | ||
| Are we going to show the video of them taking him? | ||
| Do we have it? | ||
| Is it on there? | ||
| I don't think it's on there. | ||
| Oh, really? | ||
| Yeah, I don't think they actually have it. | ||
| Oh, I mean, I've got it over here. | ||
| There's a bunch. | ||
| Is it of that specific guy? | ||
| I don't know who it is, but it is two people walking up to a guy wearing all black and taking him in. | ||
| Do you have it? | ||
| Did you transfer it over? | ||
| I mean, I have it right here. | ||
| I could give it to you. | ||
| Hold on. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| And then while you do that, I'll pull up this. | ||
| Video shows protesters get shipment of bats before Brooklyn Bridge Brawl. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| They say surveillance video from outside City Hall appears to show protesters receiving a small shipment of bats before anti-cop activists clashed with officers on the Brooklyn Bridge. | ||
| The delivery was made by a car parked on the street near City Hall, one man retrieving six bats in the trunk. | ||
| Police say the bats were delivered so the anti-cop activists could confront a unity rally proceeding over the Brooklyn Bridge into Manhattan. | ||
| The unity rally included clergy, law enforcement, and community activists. | ||
| It's unclear if the city hall protesters used the bats in the wild Brooklyn Bridge brawl before opposing protesters. | ||
| So I guess you've seen the footage of the cops who have been bashed over the head? | ||
| Yeah, it's messed up. | ||
| And it was the same cop that was kneeling, kneeling with the protesters trying to like I don't want to use the word appease, you know, but to show solidarity, I guess, with them, you know. | ||
| And it's like, look, I'm here with you guys, I'll kneel with you. | ||
| And then he's one of the people that got beat over the head. | ||
| It was like, you don't care about that. | ||
| So we got the, check this out, we got one of the black bag videos. | ||
| It's so nice watching some movement on arresting these Antifa people. | ||
| Looks like military or homeland security units. | ||
| Listen to the woman ask, use your words. | ||

You just violated their rights! | |
| Oh, shut up. | ||
| Notice the individual. | ||
| Look how they're dressed. | ||
| He's got a bag, potentially something in it, but he's wearing a helmet. | ||
| What is the old saying the protesters like to say? | ||
| Why are you in riot gear? | ||
| I don't see a riot here. | ||
| So I'll say the same thing to this dude. | ||
| Why are you in riot gear, bro? | ||
| Were you coming expecting a riot? | ||
| Looks like you were. | ||
| Looks like there's been unrest and rioting for 47 days and you were down there with protective gear for some reason. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| That's not necessarily a crime or anything like that. | ||
| But they, it seems like they're investigating these people. | ||
| He probably matched the description. | ||
| Guess what? | ||
| They can arrest you. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Well, not arrest. | ||
| They can detain and investigate. | ||
| He didn't want to answer any questions. | ||
| They cut him loose. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| Don't, don't go to riots. | ||
| Now this isn't, we don't know exactly if that's who we were talking about before. | ||
| I don't remember the name of the man that we were talking about in the other article. | ||
| This is just an example of one of these minivans showing up and taking this person away. | ||
| You know what, man? | ||
| You wanna engage in this kind of stuff? | ||
| I'm not surprised it's gonna happen. | ||
| What am I supposed to say? | ||
| Right. | ||
| You know, I was making the joke earlier about, you know, when I was a kid, you'd never actually expect the guys jumping out in the minivan and snatching someone off the street to be the good guys. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But in this instance, if their choice is to, you know, fire a beanbag which hits somebody in the face and cracks their skull, or to just drive up in a car and pick one person up and start investigating, which would you pick? | ||
| What would you have us do? | ||
| The non-lethal action, always. | ||
| What would you have us do to stop 47 days of rioting when the arrests don't work, and when they keep releasing these people without indictment? | ||
| What do you do? | ||
| So I think this is the more peaceful option. | ||
| You wait until they start walking away from the courthouse, then you pull up when they're alone, and you walk out and you arrest them. | ||
| And they didn't get arrested, they got investigated, detained. | ||
| That's the worst of it all. | ||
| And released in 90 minutes. | ||
| It's ridiculous. | ||
| Yeah? | ||
| And they make it a big story because it fits their narrative that they're oppressed. | ||
| Right, exactly. | ||
| It's so crazy. | ||
| You don't get to throw a brick through a window, start a fire, and then go, help, help, I'm being repressed, when the police come and say you're under arrest. | ||
| It should be a song. | ||
| Well, how about we jump over to the next segment? | ||
| Yeah, let's do it. | ||
| Because this one is... Oh, this. | ||
| This is triggering. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, boy. | |
| This is stupid. | ||
| How many of you guys follow Kaylee McEnany? | ||
| I do. | ||
| Do you guys watch the press? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I do. | |
| Yeah, I do. | ||
| It's almost like watching some kind of, like, verbal political MMA. | ||
| Yeah, and she's a beast. | ||
| She's the best. | ||
| She's a freaking fighter, man. | ||
| It is such a pleasure to watch her shut them down. | ||
| Weren't you saying they have like, her folder has tabs? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So they thought they were going to get another gotcha because they took a picture of her, her folder. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| She has like 60 tabs. | ||
| She has like the economy. | ||
| She has the family. | ||
| She has the CDC. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What are you going to bring up this time? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| What are you going to bring up? | ||
| She's got it. | ||
| I like it. | ||
| I really like it. | ||
| She'll pull out, you know, someone will ask her something like, well, when it comes to the COVID, she'll go, hmm, interesting. | ||
| And then she like pulls some papers out and she's like, well, it says here. | ||
| Bring it on. | ||
| That's what it looks like. | ||
| She's just like, oh yeah? | ||
| Come on with it. | ||
| Bring it. | ||
| Bring it. | ||
| Well, I got the information. | ||
| You may like seeing the media get smacked down, but they got her. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Ooh, they got her. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Kayleigh McEnany. | |
| Yeah, let's talk about it. | ||
| They put her through the blender. | ||
| Actually, they're lying and taking her out of context, and we have one of the best examples of them doing it. | ||
| Now, I will admit, before we get started, poor choice of words from Kayleigh McEnany, and this is it. | ||
| This is literally like watching political MMA. | ||
| Yup. | ||
| You're watching something, you know, two people are fighting. | ||
| One guy, you see him make a wrong step and the other guy goes, woom, and goes right for that punch. | ||
| You know, he sees you're off, you're off base, you're off balance. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I got you. | |
| Yup. | ||
| That's what happened. | ||
| While she's normally this, you know, machine with all the facts, she unfortunately framed, phrased something. | ||
| Although the context was fine. | ||
| Right. | ||
| The phrasing was a weapon out of context. | ||
| Oh, and they're using it. | ||
| It's nuts. | ||
| We got this Twitter thread from Drew Holden. | ||
| He says they're lying to you. | ||
| Media outlets and personalities, plus other left-wingers, maliciously took a press secretary quote out of context to fraudulently make it sound like she didn't care about the science she went on to explain supports the move to reopen schools. | ||
| So here's what Kaylee tweeted. | ||
| Case study in media bias. | ||
| I said, the science is very clear on this. | ||
| The science is on our side here. | ||
| We encourage our localities and states to simply follow the science, open our schools. | ||
| But leave it to the media to deceptively suggest I was making the opposite point. | ||
| And now, from Drew Holden, we get a wave of like every single outlet lying about this. | ||
| Every single one of them. | ||
| This is nuts, man. | ||
| So when I first saw this thing from Acosta, I was like, did she really say this? | ||
| Check it out. | ||
| He says, I'm as shocked as you surely are that Acosta of CNN is leading the charge to pretend someone from the Trump administration made a point they obviously didn't. | ||
| Jim Acosta tweeted, the White House press secretary on Trump's push to reopen schools. | ||
| The science should not stand in the way of this. | ||
| Jim Acosta had many more characters he could have used. | ||
| He could have clarified what she really meant. | ||
| You could have listened to Kayleigh McEnany's full speech and understood the context of what she was saying. | ||
| I'm not going to bury this one. | ||
| No suspense. | ||
| What she should have said is, the science will prove we were correct. | ||
| The full context of what she was saying is that When the science is released, you will see it supports us. | ||
| That's what she meant. | ||
| Listen to the full speech. | ||
| The science should not stand in the way of this. | ||
| An unfortunate way of phrasing it. | ||
| But you said it right there. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Listen to the full speech. | ||
| Everybody needs to do it. | ||
| Everyone needs to be doing this. | ||
| All the time. | ||
| I watch everything she puts out. | ||
| Everything she puts out. | ||
| I'm now listening to it all. | ||
| This is why people don't trust the media. | ||
| I know you're right. | ||
| This is why when they shouldn't when Trump was doing his daily coronavirus press briefings, his approval rating reached the highest point of his presidency in aggregate, like not a single poll for every single poll. | ||
| It was the highest it had ever been. | ||
| And so immediately the media is like, shut him down. | ||
| Stop letting him speak. | ||
| and then all the networks shut down because, oh, what's that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Well, you can criticize him for the way he speaks and his strategies and all that stuff. | ||
| When you learn the truth about what he's saying, you're like, no, he's not actually that bad. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| So this is what they do. | ||
| I'm going to stress this point for you. | ||
| She clearly said the science on our side. | ||
| When she opened, she was saying, I was talking to the president and he, and he said, I want, I want schools fully | ||
| reopened. | ||
| The science should not stand in the way on this. | ||
| The science should not stand in the way of this. | ||
| We're going to do blah blah blah. | ||
| The science is on our side. | ||
| Saying that in the future, the science won't be stopping them because it's on their side. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So simple. | ||
| The President has said unmistakably that he wants schools to open. | ||
| When he says open, he means open in full. | ||
| words was poor. | ||
| Yup. | ||
| Yup. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Check this out. | |
| Here's, uh, who is this person? | ||
| Wei- uh, Weijia Zhang. | ||
| CBS News tweeted, "...the president has said unmistakably that he wants | ||
| schools to open. | ||
| When he says open, he means open in full. | ||
| Kids being able to attend each and every day at school, the science should not stand in | ||
| the way of this." | ||
| Full, uh, from the White House podium, science should not stand in the way of reopening schools. | ||
| This is everything. | ||
| Look at this. | ||
| Jim Roberts. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Stunning. | |
| Jaw-dropping. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Brave. | |
| The White House prime secretary just called for schools to reopen, saying that science should not stand in the way of this. | ||
| This is why I never believe anything anymore from the media, and I always have to dig in. | ||
| And there have been a few times where I've actually gotten caught up, and I'm like, I shouldn't have fallen for that one. | ||
| I should have known better. | ||
| Now I'm over it. | ||
| Now they could be like, Donald Trump today announced that he was going to launch a nuclear missile into the sun. | ||
| I'd be like, yeah, no he didn't. | ||
| I don't believe you. | ||
| They could be like, Donald Trump announced that he went and bought a Big Mac. | ||
| I'd be like, no he didn't. | ||
| You're lying. | ||
| Donald Trump came out and said hello. | ||
| No he didn't. | ||
| That's not true. | ||
| He called you fake news. | ||
| I don't believe it. | ||
| They could say Donald Trump smiled and waved. | ||
| Not buying it. | ||
| He was probably scratching his nose. | ||
| For real. | ||
| Everything's out of context. | ||
| This is insane. | ||
| Look at this. | ||
| The Washington Post, White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany, the science should not stand in the way. | ||
| How absolutely insane has media become? | ||
| Little do they know, the science actually proves that schools should be reopened. | ||
| Look at this one, look at this one. | ||
| This dude from NBC, quote, the science should not stand in the way of this, Press Secretary says. | ||
| Then he tweets, McEnany later added the science, in her words, is on their side. | ||
| It's perfectly safe to open. | ||
| Oh, that's a nice little, uh... Guardian. | ||
| Bill Nye! | ||
| Try to sneak it in there. | ||
| Oh, great. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Look at this. | |
| Bill Nye. | ||
| He goes, he goes way into it. | ||
| White House says science should not stand in the way of reopening schools. | ||
| I guess it's good to have it spelled out. | ||
| The administration is generally not in favor of science. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| Might surprise a few of us. | ||
| My, oh, my. | ||
| Science out of the way. | ||
| Bill Nye. | ||
| Come on, Bill. | ||
| No, he's, you know, he's not a scientist. | ||
| He's not a scientist. | ||
| No, he's not. | ||
| He gets dragged all the time. | ||
| He's an engineer. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| He doesn't have any, he doesn't even actually have any, like, hard science degrees, I guess. | ||
| He was a comedian. | ||
| There's not even a point in just going through all of this. | ||
| Look at this. | ||
| Popat, DNC War Room, Ted Lieu. | ||
| He's a politician. | ||
| All of these lies, man. | ||
| Wow, this is a huge thread. | ||
| The Lincoln Project? | ||
| That's funny. | ||
| Isn't he a Russian? And of course, J. Rubin, another star for the Lincoln Project. Oh, man, | ||
| the Krasensteins, Mrs. Krasenstein. Look at this. Any chance they get. Look how huge this thread is. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Orange man bad. We got him, everybody. But hold on, hold on. | |
| Look at all of these mainstream news outlets saying all of this stuff. Right. Now, now try | ||
| and have a conversation with one of your one of your friends who doesn't isn't in politics, | ||
| doesn't watch a show like this. | ||
| Smash the like button and share this video, by the way. | ||
| You know what I'm doing mentally while you're saying all that, right? | ||
| Smashing the like button? | ||
| Oh no, I'm mentally prepping for those people that you just mentioned. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Because I know they're gonna bring this up. | ||
| Oh yeah, Adam? | ||
| Well, check this out. | ||
| Boom! | ||
| And here's what they're gonna do. | ||
| They're gonna go, CBS, The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Ted Lieu, Adam Schiff, prove me wrong. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I have 12 sources all proving this! | |
| And then I'll actually, this is what I'll do. | ||
| I'll drop the entire speech of what she said, and I'll be like, show me where, you know, where she's saying the science doesn't prove them correct. | ||
| Because that's not what she's saying. | ||
| The science is very- Do you know what they're gonna say? | ||
| I don't have the time. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Your one dark-faced pony soldier. | |
| They're going to say, I just showed you 12 sources. | ||
| You sending me a YouTube video proves nothing. | ||
| That's exactly what I have been told when they give me that kind of stuff. | ||
| And I go, all of these things that you're giving me is allegedly this happened. | ||
| Allegedly this happened. | ||
| And I'm like, that's not showing me that something happened. | ||
| I know. | ||
| I listened to her speech. | ||
| That is not what she said. | ||
| That is not what she meant. | ||
| She's saying the science is on her side, so it shouldn't stand in the way of reopening schools. | ||
| Period. | ||
| Done. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| When you listen to the full statement, you're like, oh, let's see what the journalists do. | ||
| I really do believe that one of the big things that divides the left and the right today is the ability to understand nuance, context, sarcasm, irony. | ||
| It really does. | ||
| This is why the NPC meme is so apt. | ||
| Yep, you're right. | ||
| Because if she said, you know, they listen to what, you know what, I'm gonna give you the best example. | ||
| When Donald Trump said Hillary Clinton acid-washed her server. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| All the NPC people went, she put acid on her server? | ||
| What, that would break it. | ||
| Let me check Snopes real quick. | ||
| So then NBC... Snopes said... NBC issued this. | ||
| NBC said, fact check, Hillary Clinton did not use a corrosive chemical on her computers. | ||
| Oh man. | ||
| Yes, thanks. | ||
| It was not speaking literally. | ||
| Yes, of course. | ||
| But think about jokes. | ||
| How they're like, you can't say that! | ||
| It's a joke, I didn't mean it. | ||
| I think Ricky Gervais has a bit like this where he's talking about how he was joking about how he hated pretzels on airplanes and he wants peanuts, but you can't have peanuts because one person might get sick. | ||
| He's like, I don't literally want everyone to die from inhaling peanut dust or something like that. | ||
| It's like, I know, it's a joke. | ||
| He was making a joke. | ||
| It was meant to be exaggerated. | ||
| Of course we know Ricky Gervais doesn't want people to die from peanut allergies. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That's why it's silly. | ||
| It's meant to be humorous by being extreme. | ||
| They can't understand these things. | ||
| So Kaley McEnany says something, they take it 100% literally, and now you have all these sources proving she said it. | ||
| And now I can just see it, man. | ||
| They're all gonna be running around like gobbling turkeys. | ||
| Echo Chamber? | ||
| The Echo Chamber is running rampant right now. | ||
| That's what we just saw. | ||
| That was a thread of the Echo Chamber. | ||
| This is my job. | ||
| This is what I do. | ||
| I wake up, I see the news, and it says, Donald Trump today announced that he was going to be executing, you know, dogs and puppies. | ||
| And then I'll be like, whoa, that's crazy. | ||
| I better watch that video of him giving the speech. | ||
| And then what they'll do is it'll be like this. | ||
| It'll be Donald Trump, quote, it's time to start executing puppies and baby kittens. | ||
| And then I'll be like, whoa, and everyone's like, this is insane, I can't believe this. | ||
| And then you watch it and it'll be Trump going, can you believe these crazy people who would say something like it's time to start executing puppies and baby kittens? | ||
| What a horrible thing to say. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| They attribute the words to him. | ||
| They do things like that. | ||
| I know, I see it. | ||
| You're right. | ||
| Even this right here, she's actually, it appears she's quoting Trump. | ||
| Right. | ||
| She's like, I talked to the president. | ||
| He said this, this, and this, the science should not, the science | ||
| should not stand in the way of this. | ||
| Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| You know, we want schools reopened that the science has already | ||
| proven that we're correct. | ||
| And then she, I think she makes a specific reference too, but | ||
| then they don't care. | ||
| I'm wondering, they attribute it to her. | ||
| They don't care. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You're wondering? | ||
| I wonder how much of it was tone. | ||
| I wonder if maybe he was saying something like, the science shouldn't stand in the way. | ||
| I mean, it should come up with the numbers that we're expecting. | ||
| That's exactly it. | ||
| And she's just relaying it kind of flatly. | ||
| I mean, because she's, you know... But not even that! | ||
| You have to wait for someone to finish, and then if you're confused, you ask questions. | ||
| Yeah, that's what journalists are supposed to do. | ||
|

Ms. | |
| McKennedy, you said the science should not stand in the way. | ||
| You're not suggesting that you would ignore science that's not in favor. | ||
| Could you clarify that statement? | ||
| No, no, no, Tim. | ||

|
that's a lot of jobs All right, go ahead. | |
| So first, first, I don't know what this source is. | ||
| Normally, I use everything that's certified by NewsGuard. | ||
| Whoa. | ||
| You're not using a certified source, Tim? | ||
| I'm not. | ||
| I'm clutching my pearls. | ||
| But there's one reason. | ||
| There's one reason. | ||
| Uh, this was actually shared by a blue check journalist saying we've got serious problems. | ||
| So that's your source? | ||
| Yeah, yeah, but I didn't pull them up so I probably should have. | ||
| But they also, uh, you know, it's basically, whatever. | ||
| We know that Vox and the Guardian have laid people off. | ||
| We know that news has generally been taking a hit. | ||
| This is like, I don't know what this source is, World News Daily or something worldwide. | ||
| But they say newsroom laughs at record high. | ||
| Challenger Gray and Christmas found that there have been 11,027 job cuts announced this year compared to 4,087 in the first half of 2019. | ||
| The first half of 2019 was considered to be like the apocalypse. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Like 2019 itself was just like, oh, they were calling it a bloodbath. | ||
| Little do they know. | ||
| It's getting worse. | ||
| What 2020 would bring. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So Vox is laying people off. | ||
| You know why that's funny? | ||
| Because this is the outlet where Matthew Iglesias, the co-founder, was just canceled. | ||
| Oh yeah, that's right. | ||
| And now he's tweeting very cryptic, help, help, I'm trapped, you know, send help tweets. | ||
| He's tweeting things like, I'd like to talk about this, but I can't. | ||
| And you're like, that's weird. | ||
| And he randomly tweeted, I have an opinion to share, but I won't. | ||
| It's like, thanks. | ||
| I better follow him for all that breaking news. | ||
| He's basically got duct tape on his mouth and he's going, Well, dude, you made the tape. | ||
| It's your company. | ||
| Meanwhile, the other founder is, like, ragging on him. | ||
| Yeah, he's a co-founder, right? | ||
| Yeah, Matthew's a co-founder and Ezra Klein, like, threw some shade, some subtweet shade at him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Like, you know when people talk about free speech, they're actually talking about their power. | |
| And then he's like, I would comment on this, but I've made a commitment, so I won't. | ||
| So the context is basically that Matthew Glazier signed this Harper's letter condemning cancel culture, and so then his other co-founders are like basically ragging on him, and he can't say anything, because he has been cancelled for signing the letter. | ||
| You know what, man? | ||
| I have no sympathy for people who want to dance in the highway and get hit by a car. | ||
| I mean, I have a little bit, to be honest. | ||
| You don't want anyone getting hurt. | ||
| I don't want Matthew Glacius, co-founder of Vox, to be silenced. | ||
| I don't want anyone to be silenced. | ||
| Yeah, I don't want anyone getting hit by a car. | ||
| However, what am I supposed to do? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's like, you're dancing in the highway, you get hit by a car. | |
| What are we gonna do? | ||
| Are we gonna create a society where we put, like, rubber padding everywhere? | ||
| Cars can only go 10 miles an hour. | ||
| Everybody's gotta wear... You know what? | ||
| Everyone goes in a bubble. | ||
| You ever see those bubbles people have? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Where they run around in them and then bounce into each other? | ||
| Hamster balls? | ||
| Is that... Well, it's like... I mean, basic... Human hamster balls? | ||
| Whatever. | ||
| Yeah, they're big, inflatable bubbles. | ||
| Uh-huh. | ||
| And your feet are out of them. | ||
| Oh, no, I don't... Oh, okay, now I know what you're talking about. | ||
| Yeah, and then everyone runs and jumps into each other. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| Like, that's our expectation for society. | ||
| Oh, goodness. | ||
| Then we can finally feel safe, right? | ||
| No, I wouldn't be able to feel the feeling of the skateboard cracking into my shin, though. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I need that. | ||
| I need that pain. | ||
| Skateboards will be made of some kind of soft foam. | ||
| Oh, no. | ||
| With a very thin plastic. | ||
| You will not be allowed to... You'll have to strap your feet in on both of the trucks. | ||
| Oh, great. | ||
| So, no tricks. | ||
| And you can't push. | ||
| Someone can push you one time. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| We're all gonna wear gray jumpsuits. | ||
| Everyone's heads will be shaven. | ||
| Equilibrium. | ||
| Totally. | ||
| Everyone must wear the same thing. | ||
| In order to eliminate all biases and all prejudice and make everyone finally the same and to be truly safe... Peaceful. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Peaceful. | |
| Everybody's gotta... You know, I used to think it would be a great jumpsuit. | ||
| Now I don't think that would work. | ||
| Because you can still see someone's figure. | ||
| Like... Oh, good point. | ||
| You're too tall. | ||
| Whoa, whoa. | ||
| You're too thin. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You're too wide. | ||
| Well, no, no, no. | ||
| You're too short. | ||
| Too thin won't be an issue because everyone will be starving. | ||
| There's not going to be any food in the new communist utopia. | ||
| So what? | ||
| Everyone's going to be thin? | ||
| Everyone's going to be starving. | ||
| I hope not. | ||
| Well, that's communism. | ||
| I hope it doesn't happen. | ||
| But that's communism. | ||
| You're right. | ||
| So when we have the communist utopia, they won't have to worry about people being too tall because they'll all be starving, so they'll stop growing at a certain point. | ||
| So everyone can just wear... It's going to rest on your head, and it's going to be a big white cylinder. | ||
| Like a lampshade. | ||
| Right, exactly. | ||
| But covering all the way to the floor, and it'll just be cylinders moving around, but you can't talk. | ||
| You have to type, and then the robot talks for you. | ||

Boop. | |
| Smash. | ||
| Gently. | ||
| Think about what they're trying to implement with all this critical race theory and gender theory and all this stuff. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| How do you stop any of it? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Keep talking about it. | ||
| Logically. | ||
| That's what I'm doing as much as I can. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| I mean, how do they win? | ||
| Oh. | ||
| How do they stop white supremacy? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It feels like they're trying to convince everybody that everyone's white supremacists. | ||
| Well, so the way I look at it is the only way you can actually have their version of equality with no privilege would be like I described it. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Everybody is, you know, starving and small. | ||
| They wear giant lampshade things on their heads that go all the way down so you can't see. | ||
| It floats like two feet from your body and you move around in shuffling. | ||
| Or like Cousin It wigs. | ||
| Right, exactly. | ||
| Yeah, you don't know what it is. | ||
| Just hair. | ||
| And everyone's required to talk with a very high pitch. | ||
| Or like Sia, you know, you never see her face. | ||
| Oh yeah. | ||
| But that's the only way to solve it, right? | ||
| I guess so. | ||
| I was thinking this before when I used to work for, when I worked at O'Hare Airport. | ||
| Because of all the security restrictions, that made no sense. | ||
| I was like, maybe the future will be if you want to fly, you got to wear a jumpsuit, you can't bring anything with you. | ||
| Because they're slowly just banning, like nail clippers are banned, and shampoo is banned. | ||
| And the stupidest thing was, the security protocols made zero sense. | ||
| Because if you worked for the company, you would just drive in. | ||
| You would drive up, you'd pull up to a checkpoint, they'd wave, you'd show them your ID, they'd wave you in. | ||
| They wouldn't search you. | ||
| You could bring whatever you wanted. | ||
| And then you were in the airport, with whatever you wanted. | ||
| Geez. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Not only that- Well, this was a while ago, right? | ||
| Still, it's the same way. | ||
| Oh, really? | ||
| So, well, I don't know about the employee parking lot, but I can tell you that they would always tell us, if you're coming to work, You're not supposed to go in that way. | ||
| to enter what's called the bag room. It's like when you go to the baggage carousels, | ||
| there's a door and you can just swipe and the door opens and now you are in the secured area. | ||
| So they would be like, well you're not supposed to go in that way. We want you to go through | ||
| security because even if you're an employee you go through security. But I'm sensing a but coming. | ||
| The but is that you have to have the door there so that the employees can fix problems. | ||
| So people would show up, walk right up, and not go through security and just swipe and walk on in. | ||
| Or people, like literally everybody who drove in, you'd pull up to a checkpoint, they'd be like, how's it going? | ||
| Hi. | ||
| Swipe your card, have a nice day. | ||
| Morning Jerry! | ||
| And you bring your car in! | ||
| And I was just like, how stupid is it that they're gonna ban all of these things? | ||
| I could literally fill my trunk up with nail clippers. | ||
| And they'd open it and be like, you got a lot of nail clippers there, Tim. | ||
| And I'd be like, that's right. | ||
| And be like, have a nice day, buddy. | ||
| I like my nails cut perfectly. | ||
| No, I'd be like, listen, listen. | ||
| Every hour. | ||
| I'm telling you, my new business, a subscription nail clipper service. | ||
| I'm telling you, I'm gonna be rich. | ||
| They'd be like, yeah, great, go for it, bye bye. | ||
| Underground airport nail clippers. | ||
| I open my trench coat, I'm like, you need some nail clippers? | ||
| I got the nail clippers. | ||
| I see those nails are a little long. | ||
| They make you throw those clippers away? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right here. | |
| I got you. | ||
| They wouldn't care. | ||
| You need toenail clippers? | ||
| Oh, I got fingernail clippers? | ||
| Toenail clippers? | ||
| Cuticle cutters. | ||
| You got a cat? | ||
| I got a cat nail clipper too. | ||
| The point is though, I used to think about that and then now that we're in this era of social justice, everything's offensive, everyone's privileged. | ||
| How do you remove privilege? | ||
| You know what colorism is? | ||
| Sounds familiar, but whatever. | ||
| It's a social justice term meaning that lighter-skinned people have more privilege than darker-skinned people, I guess? | ||
| Is that how you do it? | ||
| Yeah, I would say so. | ||
| And I actually have something to say about this because I know someone's going to mention, maybe in Super Chats, a book called Harrison Bergeron, which is like a dystopian story where everyone is equal. | ||
| And that means people with a sense of pitch have like these things installed in their ears where you can't hear anything and you can't sing and you're all the same height. | ||
| You have like your shins broken so you can do all this stuff and it's horrible. | ||
| Dystopia. | ||
| It's awful. | ||
| Have you read it? | ||
| I haven't read it. | ||
| I think I listened to it. | ||
| I like to imagine what the world would be like. | ||
| That's the same. | ||
| In their happy utopia. | ||
| They'll feel great. | ||
| You have an audiobook? | ||
| That's basically... You read the book. | ||
| Yeah, I mean... You listened to the audiobook? | ||
| Yeah, I did, yeah. | ||
| Yeah, so that's... It's a really interesting book. | ||
| Short story. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You've dug into it. | ||
| But yeah, it's horrifying. | ||
| I think you're onto something. | ||
| You want to talk about something horrifying? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You ready to talk about something truly horrifying? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| No. | ||
| You know what we're going to talk about next? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| We didn't mention this in the opener. | ||
| No. | ||
| No, I don't think we did. | ||
| Should we do it? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I don't care. | ||
| It's important. | ||
| You don't care? | ||
| I mean, it needs to be talked about. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| It blew me away this morning. | ||
| This is possibly the most terrifying story I've ever read. | ||
| And I mean it. | ||
| Let me give you the gist in Los Angeles. | ||
| They're arresting young boys and then forcefully administering estrogen to undergo some kind of experimental behavioral treatment that they claim is to treat some kind of delinquency or criminality. | ||
| But there's a family now suing, saying that a 16-year-old was forcefully given estrogen. | ||
| Forcefully. | ||
| They told him he had no choice. | ||
| And not only that, the parents had no idea. | ||
| No one knew. | ||
| They didn't find out until a year or two later. | ||
| No, it was a month later, I think. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| Well, maybe the... The lawsuit is now... I've read into multiple different... It's not just this. | ||
| It's happened other places. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| It's been going on. | ||
| This is not new. | ||
| So this is some kind of weird experimental forced gender transition on young boys. | ||
| Yeah, some sort of, like, perverted eugenic system. | ||
| It's messed up. | ||
| Go ahead. | ||
| Get into it. | ||
| Boy 16 was given estrogen for behavioral disorder while in LA Juvenile Hall, suit alleges. | ||
| I don't think that's a fair headline. | ||
| Because the suit is alleging that the treatment given to him had nothing to do with this disorder. | ||
| They're saying it was medical battery. | ||
| The headline should actually read, Boy 16 was forcefully administered estrogen against his will without his family's knowledge. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That's it? | ||
| Right. | ||
| They say, This opening line, dude. | ||
| A 16-year-old boy being held at a Los Angeles County Juvenile Hall developed enlarged breasts after he was prescribed estrogen to treat a behavioral disorder, a move that baffled doctors who said the treatment defied medical logic, according to a lawsuit filed last month. | ||
| And that says to me, that is a lie. | ||
| They're experimenting on these kids. | ||
| It's an experiment. | ||
| You know what I think it was? | ||
| I think, technically, you can argue it was for this behavioral disorder. | ||
| I think these doctors, in my opinion, are thinking, hey, if testosterone makes young men aggressive, perhaps giving them estrogen will make them no longer commit crimes, right? | ||
| Them taking it upon themselves to make that decision scares me. | ||
| Well, that's called human experimentation. | ||
| And that's what they're doing. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| What's crazy is, we can see it. | ||
| You read this story. | ||
| The L.A. | ||
| Times has confirmed medical records. | ||
| This kid was being given estrogen. | ||
| Yep. | ||
|
unidentified
|
L.A. | |
| Times says it's a fact. | ||
| And fellow doctors are going, this is not, oh, it says right here, down here, it says, estrogen is not a treatment for ODD. | ||
| I cannot be more emphatic about that. | ||
| McGough said, you won't find a reference anywhere that supports the use of estrogen for ODD. | ||
| So they're, they're, they're lying. | ||
| It's not proven. | ||
| It's not a thing. | ||
| They're making it up. | ||
| They're, they're just going, maybe it'll work. | ||
| I'll tell you, let's just do it. | ||
| This is called, um, what is it called? | ||
| ODD. | ||
| What does it stand for? | ||
| What is it called? | ||
| I don't remember. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sorry. | |
| Behavioral condition by patients. | ||
| They don't give you the full. | ||
| It's defiant disorder or something like that. | ||
| I don't think I have that. | ||
| I forget what the O stands for. | ||
| I'm sorry. | ||
| Oppositional defiant disorder. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| There it is. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Think about what that means. | ||
| Oppositional defiant disorder. | ||
| What you're a young kid who won't sit down and shut up. | ||
| They say that the treatment is therapy. | ||
| Family therapy. | ||
| It sounds like they just need a strong father figure. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Reminds me of that South Park joke we talked about before. | ||
| Where the teacher is like, I'm gonna do a non-medical treatment for ADD. | ||
| Oh yeah. | ||
| And then he's like, notice the child is unfocused and won't pay attention. | ||
| Watch as I administer the treatment. | ||
| And then he smacks the kid. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sit down and shut up! | |
| And the kid just stops and he goes, now you can see the child is focused and doing his homework. | ||
| Let's try the next child. | ||
| That's basically what it is, okay? | ||
| Right. | ||
| You know, so, look at this. | ||
| The lawsuit described the treatment as experimental. | ||
| The doctor who prescribed the estrogen, Danny Wang, could not be reached for comment. | ||
| They say that they've checked the medical records. | ||
| That's legit, man. | ||
| Wang prescribed a daily regimen of two milligrams of estrogen to be taken in pill form according to medical records. | ||
| The boy's parents were not aware that he had been diagnosed with ODD or was undergoing treatment until late July 2019. | ||
| Doctors said the treatments should not have been carried out without the parent's consent. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Oh my gosh. | ||
| What should not be carried out, period. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And then also without the parent's consent. | ||
| You know what one of the side effects of high estrogen in men is? | ||
| What? | ||
| Infertility. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Yeah, so they just ruined his life. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Potentially, yeah. | |
| But was 13 doses enough to make him infertile? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I hope not. | ||
| I mean, it made him have, it made him develop, you know, breast tissue. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Oops. | ||
| So maybe so. | ||
| The lawsuit says that, it doesn't say directly they're doing this to other kids, but it basically says the plaintiffs allege that other, you know, that young males are being prescribed estrogen in this facility. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Man, could you imagine this? | ||
| I'm going to say it. | ||
| I'm going to go ham on this one. | ||
| Every single person, every single time I mention, you've got to speak up and stand up against the craziness, the insanity. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But I have kids. | ||
|
unidentified
|
OK. | |
| All right. | ||
| Well, let me let you know. | ||
| Give me a call when your kid's been forcefully administered estrogen. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| There was one post where I'm not entirely sure I read that the first treatment was an injection and then after that they gave him pills. | ||
| But I don't know if that's actually I don't think that's in the L.A. | ||
| Times story. | ||
| It may have been in the lawsuit. | ||
| Yeah, I saw that. | ||
| That's what spawned me down this spiral of learning about this today is when you tweeted it out about the injection. | ||
| And I was just like, what did I just read? | ||
| So they were giving the kid a bunch of vaccines, too. | ||
| So they gave him, like, three different injections. | ||
| What are they doing in this place? | ||
| What kind of a juvenile hall is this place? | ||
| It blows me away that, I mean... Low income? | ||
| Yeah, well, we talked about California being on, like, the forefront of, like, you know, cutting-edge stuff, and it's like... They're ahead of things, yeah. | ||
| Okay, I'm gonna go ahead and roll that back, because they're definitely going back in time. | ||
| When was the last time people were experimenting on human? | ||
| Forced lobotomies. | ||
| Electroshock therapy. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Well, we got rid of that. | ||
| I guess we didn't. | ||
| It's still prevalent. | ||
| Look at this. | ||
| It's happening right now. | ||
| Let's be careful. | ||
| Prevalent. | ||
| It's happening. | ||
| Okay, it's happening. | ||
| Yeah, so I'm very careful because I recorded something on this earlier. | ||
| We have this lawsuit, this one facility, these doctors, it may be just this facility. | ||
| I hope that's the case. | ||
| Exactly, exactly. | ||
| So I don't want to get ahead of myself and act like it's everywhere, it's happening here, and that's enough, I think, to make sure we're being vigilant, calling this out to prevent it from happening in the future. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Because what you've got to understand is that if you take a young person who is not dysphoric, And forcefully administer reassignment therapy or treatment, you're gonna make them dysphoric. | ||
| Yeah, absolutely. | ||
| This kid became depressed, has to get surgery now. | ||
| That's what they say, the kid requires... Yeah, let me see if I can... | ||
| Look at this. | ||
| Probation officials and the teen's attorney, Wesley Ouchy, declined to say why he was in custody. | ||
| They say Ouchy said the boy, now 17, was released in April and will require surgery to treat the physical issues he developed as a result of the estrogen treatment. | ||
| That's messed up. | ||
| That's crazy, man. | ||
| This is some of the craziest stuff I've ever heard. | ||
| Yeah, me too. | ||
| And we could get banned for even talking about it. | ||
| Someone in the chat just said, that explains Antifa. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What, forcefully administering... Too much estrogen. | |
| It was a good comment. | ||
| Just as an aside. | ||
| Man. | ||
| So the treatments only stopped because this kid was being bullied. | ||
| He got acne all over his body. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Started growing breasts and the other kids started making fun of him | ||
| And so he started refusing the reason he didn't refuse in the first place was because he was basically told | ||
| That if he gets any markups in juvie, they'll hold him until he's 18 23 or 26 | ||
| Wow, he's 16. So they were like you want to spend the next several years here | ||
| Resist. | ||
| That sounds forced to me. | ||
| Oh yeah. | ||
| According to the lawsuit the kid said the nurse told him he had to get medication and he initially refused saying I wasn't told I was gonna get any medication and she said it's for a node in your chest that needs to be treated. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| And then he said I don't want it she said you can't you can't refuse it has to be done and the security guard there said you can't refuse you have to do it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Whoa. | |
| He said he was scared that if he resisted they'd write him up and then he'd be in juvie for the next several years so he just let him do it. | ||
| Then he started taking the treatment because he had no choice and only resisted after 13 | ||
| doses and people started attacking him, making fun of him. | ||
| Man, when I hear about people messing with kids, I, man, it pisses me off. | ||
| I want to say a lot more than we can right now on this live show. | ||
| They're going after kids, man. | ||
| I can't stand it. | ||
| Remember when Mario Lopez said a three-year-old can't... What exactly did he say about a three-year-old? | ||
| He said that a three-year-old shouldn't be transitioning. | ||
| No, no, he said something like a three-year-old doesn't know if they're trans or something. | ||
| Yeah, he was basically spitting facts. | ||
| He was forced to apologize for that. | ||
| I'll be, I'll be, I'll be, you know, look, I can say this, I'm not a doctor, but I don't think Mario Lopez had to apologize for that. | ||
| That's insane. | ||
| That's, that's, that's, that's the, you know, the level of crazy things are getting with this kind of intersectionalism. | ||
| Now you've got in the federal government, time, racist, that one of the, one of the things released by the, by the army was that using housing taxes to pay for public schools is white supremacy. | ||
| That's just... I tell you this, man, as we talk a lot about China, and we're going to segue over to that in just a second, it really does feel like the bonds that make a civilization function are being torn apart in the United States and in many parts of Europe. | ||
| And being labeled white. | ||
| Right, like specifically time and hard work. | ||
| Or the nuclear family. | ||
| Just having solid parents, working hard, being respectful. | ||
| How does that make any sense? | ||
| So you said that pamphlet was from the 90s? | ||
| From 1990. | ||
| So here's the context. | ||
| There's a pamphlet we read the other day. | ||
| Where it's like listing all of the things about whiteness. | ||
| Some of it included working hard to succeed. | ||
| Time. | ||
| Adhering to schedules. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What was some of the other stuff? | |
| Being religious. | ||
| Working before play. | ||
| Oh yeah, saving up for the future. | ||
| Looking into the future, preparing for the future. | ||
| Yep, was whiteness. | ||
| And listen, they talk about abolishing this stuff. | ||
| So this was going viral, it was at the African American... It was posted in the National African American History Museum, the official Smithsonian website. | ||
| And someone actually, and I posted this on Facebook, I'm like, this is crazy, like, look what's going on. | ||
| Someone wrote, one of the same people, they're all the same, you know, went on there and said, wow, Adam, you're really going into some fringe, fringe things and posting fringe stuff and really acting like it's mainstream media. | ||
| I'm like, this is from the Smithsonian National History Museum. | ||
| The museum. | ||
| Yeah, like, how are you going to convince me that that's fringe? | ||
| This is what, did you read it, dude? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Read it and try to convince me that this isn't crazy. | ||
| It's not fringe. | ||
| They blow right past it and go, how dare you post this fringe stuff? | ||
| And I'm like, this is what they're teaching people. | ||
| What are you talking about? | ||
| Welcome to the real resistance. | ||
| How long will they allow us to exist on their airwaves? | ||
| Get this though. | ||
| Someone else posted. | ||
| Well, they're right. | ||
| That's it, period. | ||
| I'm like, did you just... you think time is white? | ||
| You're telling me being polite is white? | ||
| Being polite is white, really. | ||
| So all those times that you were polite, he was very... I only have good memories of all these people, honestly, whenever I've interacted with them in life. | ||
| So every time they were nice to me. | ||
| Now you know. | ||
| They were being white. | ||
| Hey look man, I'll tell you what, there's some light at the end of the tunnel I guess. | ||
| What's that? | ||
| When everything falls apart, the people who retain schedules, hard work. | ||
| Good point. | ||
| Family structures. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| They're gonna be alright. | ||
| You're absolutely right. | ||
| These are not, you know, these are not things that are white culture. | ||
| These are things that successful cultures in general use. | ||
| Notably, I don't know, the Chinese, the Japanese. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Literally every single country. | ||
| I'm sorry, all of them. | ||
| Humans. | ||
| Human civilization has lasted this long because of that list right there. | ||
| Who created agrarian agriculture? | ||
| Was that like Egypt? | ||
| Who created agrarian agriculture? | ||
| Oh gosh. | ||
| What was that? | ||
| Was that like Egypt? | ||
| Not sure. | ||
| Ancient, you know, Middle Eastern. | ||
| They grew crops. | ||
| But actually, that doesn't make sense because we were hunter-gatherers. | ||
| And then once we started farming, we were able to start sitting in one spot. | ||
| And that was in Egypt, in one of the areas. | ||
| The funniest thing is, let's say we go all the way back. | ||
| They weren't white. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no. | |
| Let's go all the way back in time. | ||
| All the way, all the way back in time to a very, very early man, whatever, whatever. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| And hunter-gatherers. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| OK. | ||
| Did the hunter-gatherers have a concept of seasons? | ||
| Probably. | ||
| For sure. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| They're gathering. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| Depending on where they were on the planet. | ||
| Yeah, different fruits grew in different seasons. | ||
| And so, depending on where you are on the planet, in tropical areas you have the rainy season and the dry season. | ||
| If you move for more temperate climates, you have the four seasons. | ||
| And the moon schedules. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| able to hunt at night. | ||
| That's why it was stars. | ||
| It wasn't weeks before. | ||
| It was fortnights because those were between the moon schedules. | ||
| And that was that was important. | ||
| And that was you guessed it. | ||
| Time management. | ||
| When you woke up when the sun came up. | ||
| That is adhering to a schedule. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| That because we've quantified units of time, that's white culture? | ||
| Saying time is a commodity? | ||
| Your life is based on time. | ||
| That is not an argument. | ||
| This stuff, everyone's. | ||
| It's really triggering to me. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| I mean, we went over it yesterday. | ||
| For sure. | ||
| So you can actually go check out the video. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| We're kind of getting sidetracked here. | ||
| Well, no, that was the gist of it. | ||
| Like, we're seeing all this weird critical intersectionalist theory infecting everything. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And I wonder if it leads to this point where they're, like, experimenting on kids. | ||
| That's the gist of it. | ||
| They actually are. | ||
| You're absolutely right. | ||
| Which, I mean, how are people not freaking out about this? | ||
| How is this not the biggest story in the country right now? | ||
| Right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's crazy. | |
| And not only that, it's like... Because Trump. | ||
| Well, what else is going on right now? | ||
| So who just got who big big profile person just got arrested a specific girlfriend of another person who got arrested Killed themselves in jail. | ||
| It's like what are they trying to hide? | ||
| Why why are people scrubbing their Instagram accounts their Twitter accounts? | ||
| Why are why is all this happening? | ||
| Oh, yeah Hmm, maybe they're trying to hide stuff because they're messing with kids. | ||
| And well, guess what? | ||
| Most people can't stand it when you mess with kids. | ||
| I'm talking about myself, especially. | ||
| You mess with kids, you're messing with the wrong, like, you messed up. | ||
| Everybody agrees. | ||
| Everybody. | ||
| Everyone I know, anyway. | ||
| That's why everybody wants to see justice in these particular cases. | ||
| And that's another reason why I like Trump. | ||
| He's pushing it. | ||
| He's pushing against these people. | ||
| Look into it, if you don't believe me. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Mainstream reporting. | ||
| Oh yeah. | ||
| All of them. | ||
| We're going to talk about China. | ||
| We're going to talk about China. | ||
| Man, I get mad about that. | ||
| If we had better sources, we could get into the Trump and the trafficking stuff. | ||
| I have to do this because I want to make sure we get to this. | ||
| This is important to know, too. | ||
| This is another thing that people... I mean, I didn't know about this, so I'm glad we're talking about it. | ||
| Right now in China, there's concentration camps. | ||
| They are taking a group of people called the Uyghur Muslims. | ||
| They are harvesting their organs and selling them. | ||
| They're harvesting their hair. | ||
| These people are being forcefully re-educated. | ||
| And selling it to Americans. | ||
| They were trying to. | ||
| They were trying to. | ||
| Trying to, yeah. | ||
| Big shipments of fake hair. | ||
| What are that? | ||
| Weaves? | ||
| No, real hair. | ||
| No, no, no, no. | ||
| I mean like... Yeah, weaves. | ||
| You think you're buying fake hair. | ||
| You think you're buying... But it's actually these people who are being kidnapped and put in concentration camps right now by China. | ||
| They're shaving their heads and selling their hair to other countries. | ||
| That's correct. | ||
| They're harvesting their organs. | ||
| They are forcefully sterilizing these people. | ||
| Check out this story from the AP. | ||
| China cuts Uyghur births with IUD's abortion and sterilization. | ||
| This is just absolutely insane. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| The Chinese government is taking draconian measures to slash birth rates among Uyghurs and other minorities as part of a sweeping campaign to curb its Muslim population, even as it encourages some of the country's Han majority to have more children. | ||
| So we can come back to this. | ||
| But I gotta give a shoutout to Madjed Nawaz. | ||
| Follow him on Twitter. | ||
| It's M-A-A-J-I-D N-A-W-A-Z He's engaging in a hunger strike. | ||
| I believe he's on day three now. | ||
| He said, please do not ignore a Muslim genocide for the second time in my life. | ||
| I am already out of anger and no longer feel pain. | ||
| I am asking for some love." | ||
| And then he posts these petitions. | ||
| Majid is a very high-profile radio host for LBC. | ||
| I don't know what LBC stands for. | ||
| What is it? | ||
| London Broadcast Company? | ||
| I don't know what LBC stands for. | ||
| What is it? | ||
| London Broadcast Company or something? | ||
| Something like that. | ||
| Probably something like that. | ||
| And I gotta say, I think what Magic is doing is one of the bravest things in order to spread | ||
| the word. | ||
| Explain to people what's going on, sign petitions, rally people to start talking about what China | ||
| is doing more. | ||
| And all this amid the backdrop of just everything bad that China's been doing to the United States, that Trump himself has been calling out. | ||
| And now Majid is an intellectual dark web type personality. | ||
| I say type because I don't know if there's a formal group, but Majid definitely is. | ||
| My understanding is that he actually coined the phrase regressive left. | ||
| Referring to like social justice warriors and stuff. | ||
| And now he's basically come out saying, we cannot ignore what's happening right now. | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| It's gotta be said. | ||
| It's gotta be said. | ||
| How many activists on the left have said, you know, if you've ever wondered what you'd do during World War II, you're doing it now, because of DRUMPF. | ||
| No, it's because you're ignoring the horrible atrocities that are happening right now in China. | ||
| We have video. | ||
| So, I don't know how, is there anything, there's nothing like graphic or anything in this, is there? | ||
| No, no, no, no, you can show it. | ||
| It's an aerial drone footage from someone, what they call an unknown hero in China, which I 100% agree, because people need to see this, because this exact footage is showing something hauntingly familiar from World War II, and just, I mean, you could just play it, like, look at them, they're all just sitting there. | ||
| In lines, being rounded up, corralled, and put on trains. | ||
| On to trains. | ||
| Man, this is heavy, dude. | ||
| Seeing this stuff. | ||
| It's like, this is going on right now. | ||
| People are living it. | ||
| We are living it right now. | ||
| And if you don't know about it, you better know about it now. | ||
| Because this is happening. | ||
| They're harvesting these people's organs. | ||
| They're trying to sell their hair to Americans. | ||
| Lookit, they're all shaved. | ||
| Their heads have all been shaved. | ||
| That's right, they are. | ||
| This is scary, man. | ||
| This is horrendous. | ||
| And this is a nation of, what, 1.4? | ||
| 1.4 billion people? | ||
| Yeah, I believe so. | ||
| This is one of the scariest things we face as a planet right now. | ||
| Honestly, I am upset. | ||
| It's hard to see this and know that this is going on and that nobody here, it's just this, oh, well, coronavirus. | ||
| No, no, no, no, no. | ||
| There's genocide right now that's happening. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| This is crazy footage, man. | ||
| And you're behind them and wearing their hair. | ||
| We are lucky that whoever was able to pull this off. | ||
| It looks like they're actually filming the screen of their drone controller. | ||
| I wonder how the Chinese didn't catch this. | ||
| You'd think they would have locked this down hard. | ||
| Well, because they probably sent it off hoping someone was going to get it and be like, please, I hope someone finds this. | ||
| You know, what else can they do? | ||
| It could be an intelligence agent that actually leaked the footage too. | ||
| Like something of, you know, of better means. | ||
| Cause, see this zoom capability? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's uh, that's high. | ||
| I mean, it may just, that's not digital zoom. | ||
| That looks like optical zoom to me. | ||
| So I wonder what kind of drone they're using. | ||
| Maybe people in the comments might know. | ||
| But, it's right there, man. | ||
| All those historical photos we've seen of people being loaded onto trains. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I remember watching, uh, they did some commercials. | ||
| Where it was like, do you remember this? | ||
| There was like commercials of like a, it was like a suburban white family sitting in their living room, like watching TV, and then all of a sudden, like, full camo people like kick the doors in, run in and then grab them and they're screaming like, on the ground now! | ||
| And then it loads them into a truck and then all of a sudden it freezes frame and then turns black and white and turns into a photo from World War II Germany. | ||
| And they were like, what would you do? | ||
| It's something like that. | ||
| It's happening right now. | ||
| I gotta be completely honest, I don't even know where to begin. | ||
| So that's why I gave a shout out to Majid Nawaz. | ||
| He's doing a hunger strike. | ||
| And will that be enough? | ||
| I don't want to be pessimistic. | ||
| But I don't know. | ||
| I mean, it's certainly got us talking about it. | ||
| Which is really important. | ||
| I mean, I'm looking at the comments. | ||
| Not a lot of people know about this. | ||
| A lot of people are like, what? | ||
| Are you kidding me? | ||
| When Trump says China, we're not playing games. | ||
| No. | ||
| It's crazy because you can go back to like 2010, and Trump's talking about China. | ||
| You're right, he is. | ||
| And then, you know what the... So, there was... What was it? | ||
| Michael Flynn was talking to... 2000, he was talking about it. | ||
| Oh yeah, he's been talking about it. | ||
| They've been extracting our manufactured... What did you say? | ||
| 80% of our manufactured... As it stands right now, 80% of US imports Imports. | ||
| All imports come from China. | ||
| 80%. | ||
| I was reading something about why Michael Flynn was targeted in the Mueller investigation, and apparently it was because he said that he didn't think Russia was our biggest threat, that China was. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| And then they were like, oh no, he's trying to protect Russia. | ||
| It's like, maybe. | ||
| Maybe he was right, and China is the biggest threat. | ||
| But it's not just about what's going on with the Uighur Muslims, man. | ||
| It's Hong Kong. | ||
| Yeah, you're right. | ||
| Man, Hong Kong is essentially, my understanding, and look, I'm not from there, but is that it's basically English common law, or it's been for a long time. | ||
| They've enjoyed free speech, free expression. | ||
| Democracy. | ||
| Yeah, democratic institutions. | ||
| I don't know exactly. | ||
| I think they had a parliamentary system, I'm not entirely sure. | ||
| But then when the UK basically Said they're no longer going to be a colony. | ||
| They said, you know, there you go, China. | ||
| She's all yours. | ||
| And what does China do? | ||
| They said, oh, it's going to be fine. | ||
| We're going to keep Hong Kong the way it is. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| They have basically given themselves the power to rendition Hong Kong citizens completely just in secret, literal black bags dragged off. | ||
| And so this brings us to Donald Trump's executive order, which we did talk about yesterday. | ||
| And now we'll talk about in the context of all of this, I'm actually surprised there's not a harder and more serious executive order on the Uyghur concentration camps. | ||
| Same here. | ||
| It's an atrocity to humans. | ||
| It's one of the worst atrocities probably in the history, in modern history. | ||
| Hands down. | ||
| No doubt about it. | ||
| And the scale is what's scary because, you know, can you Google search, like, how many people lived in Germany, you know, a hundred years ago? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Because we're talking about 1.4 billion people. | ||
| In China, but the amount of people in these camps, I'm not sure. | ||
| Is it a million? | ||
| I think that's what I was thinking. | ||
| It was about a million. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't have the exact number. | ||
| I'm just saying, like, now that there's more people on the planet and populations have expanded, we're dealing with a massive scale of widespread human suffering. | ||
| And that's, I mean, forced sterilizations of people. | ||
| So I was reading about why they're harvesting organs, and apparently what it is, Other wealthy Muslims can't have organ transplants unless it's halal. | ||
| So China's basically like, hey, it's like the movie The Island. | ||
| We'll start a farm of halal humans for them. | ||
| That's straight up what they're doing. | ||
| That's what it is. | ||
| It's a human farm. | ||
| Can't stand it. | ||
| No, I'm sorry. | ||
| I'm looking at the wrong chart. | ||
| Have you guys ever seen the movie The Island? | ||
| I have, yeah. | ||
| We just watched it recently, actually. | ||
| It's a bunch of clones who don't realize that they're just going to have their organs harvested for wealthy people who got themselves cloned. | ||
| And now I wonder, you know, how is China trading these people? | ||
| As commodities? | ||
| As products to be sold? | ||
| What do we do? | ||
| That's what they are. | ||
| You know, I was talking to someone about this and their response to me was like, okay, what should we do? | ||
| Ground war in China? | ||
| And I'm like, man, I don't know. | ||
| Sanctions, I guess? | ||
| Well, we're doing that. | ||
| Yeah, that's a good point. | ||
| That was the beginning. | ||
| So, right. | ||
| And that's why I think war with China is inevitable. | ||
| I agree. | ||
| I think, I was talking to a friend of mine today, I was like, I've never been more sure of us going to war with China than today. | ||
| Listening to Bill Barr talk about China, calling them out, calling Apple out, calling Hollywood out, calling all these specific... That was today, right? | ||
| That was today. | ||
| Man, Bill Barr went ham! | ||
| And if you didn't listen to his interview, or it was a speech that he was giving at Gerald F. Ford something, you must. | ||
| It is an absolute must to be aware of what they're doing and what they're talking about. | ||
| I had to listen to it twice because I couldn't believe it. | ||
| I have it right here. | ||
| Pull it up. | ||
| It's a long speech. | ||
| It's quite long. | ||
| I have it right here. Pull it up. He was bait. It's a long speech. I it's it's quite long. I have the words written | ||
| here I'm just uh | ||
| He was basically talking about Hollywood injecting propaganda | ||
| Yep. | ||
| He was talking about, you know, the NBA, these big tech companies gladly just being pawns for the Communist Party of China. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Basically having this double standard of, well, America, you know, we don't really care about you. | ||
| We have to cater to China because they have way more people and we make way more money on their citizens. | ||
| And he calls them out for it. | ||
| It's just like... | ||
| Oh, you don't care about freedom of speech. | ||
| You don't care about civil rights. | ||
| Real crazy civil rights being violated. | ||
| What did Jack Dorsey say to me last year on Rogan about their rules? | ||
| What'd he say? | ||
| They're trying to apply a global standard. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That's what it was, right? | ||
| I believe so, yeah. | ||
| Something like that. | ||
| It's like, oh, well, you know, we're a global company. | ||
| And he talks about that in here. | ||
| No, you're not a global company. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| How many countries in the world have human rights protected by their constitution? | ||
| Very, very few, and certainly not China. | ||
| Definitely not. | ||
| Look at how desperate these companies are to function in China. | ||
| Google wanted to do some kind of censored search that could exist in the country, and their response was, well, if we don't do it, someone else will, so we might as well. | ||
| No, it doesn't work that way. | ||
| China doesn't just end by saying, like, okay, you can exist here. | ||
| What did Bill Barr say about the iPhone? | ||
| Do you remember that part? | ||
| He said they, well, specifically he was talking about the guy that attacked the courthouse in California, and he had two phones on him, and he went to shoot the phones, and they took them out before he was able to shoot them completely, and they were trying to get into the phones. | ||
| And they were like, they got a warrant. | ||
| They actually went and got a warrant and went to Apple said, here's our warrant. | ||
| Let us into this phone. | ||
| And they were like, nope, sorry, we can't help you. | ||
| Like that's against our policies. | ||
| Like we won't do it. | ||
| And they were able to get into the phone and that found out that they were, there was connections to Al Qaeda. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| And it's like, wow, did I just, did I just hear that? | ||
| Like, is that actually happening? | ||
| So I actually found this, uh, well, so I'm just going to read this one part. | ||
| Go ahead. | ||
| What were you want to finish that point? | ||
| Yeah, the point was, he said you couldn't sell an iPhone in China unless China had backdoor access. | ||
| That's exactly it. | ||
| Yeah, he did say that. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So the point was, we can't get in these phones, but you think China would allow them to sell in their country unless they had backdoor access? | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| So when the United States government says, if you're going to run encrypted software messaging, we need a way in. | ||
| It doesn't work that way. | ||
| You create a way in, everybody's got a way in. | ||
| He's basically pointing out that because of the rules, the rights, the Constitution that we have, the Fourth Amendment, Apple will say F you. | ||
| But do you think when it comes to China? | ||
| Nope. | ||
| I'm sure the CCP is given a golden ticket. | ||
| Listen to this. | ||
| The People's Republic of China is now engaged in an economic blitzkrieg, an aggressive, orchestrated, whole-of-government campaign to seize commanding heights of the global economy and to surpass the United States as the world's preeminent superpower, period. | ||
| Man, when he said that, I was just like, bro, dang, man, he's calling him out. | ||
| And that is what I'm seeing. | ||
| I got a deep dive for you on your Saturday show. | ||
| What's up? | ||
| Thucydides Trap. | ||
| OK, yeah, maybe. | ||
| I'm going to dive into Trump this Saturday. | ||
| And it's good. | ||
| I mean, people need to know about the type of person he is, the things that he's actually done. | ||
| And I'm going to talk about it. | ||
| This is crazy because, you know, in 2015, going into 2016, the conversation was, will we be at war with Russia? | ||
| Right. | ||
| And, you know, over the Syria and the Qatar-Turkey pipeline, Hillary Clinton wanted a no-fly zone over Syria. | ||
| One of the top-ranking generals said that would be a declaration of war on Russia. | ||
| She said, I didn't care. | ||
| Something like that. | ||
| And so that was a big concern for a lot of people. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But now we have the prospect of war with China, and it seems like it's closer than ever. | ||
| In fact, it could happen at any moment. | ||
| China's vowed retaliation over this executive order Trump has imposed, where Trump has basically said in his executive order, we could take your stuff if anybody, American or otherwise, if you were directly or indirectly aiding in China's repression of Hong Kong. | ||
| I mean, that's broad. | ||
| That basically means we can snap our fingers and take your stuff. | ||
| Yeah, who knows? | ||
| I mean, it is vague. | ||
| You're right. | ||
| Yeah, man. | ||
| And it's worrying, too, because when it comes to conflict, international war and stuff, where do you draw the line on freedom versus security? | ||
| You know, we used to have a U.S. | ||
| Office of Censorship. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So one of the shirts that I sell, it says, Silence Accelerates Victory. | ||
| Yeah, I have. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| I'm looking at it. | ||
| Right, yeah, so it's in, what is it, can you, you want to read it? | ||
| Teespring? | ||
| Yeah, you want to just read the Latin off, can you read it? | ||
| Pop it up. | ||
| Is it The Death of Censorship? | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| And the image I made is the, you know, pyramid, all-seeing eye being knocked over. | ||
| Yeah, sideways. | ||
| And then it says, like, Solentum. | ||
| Solentum Victorium Accelerant. | ||
| Accelerat. | ||
| Accelerat. | ||
| Accelerati. | ||
| That was the slogan of the U.S. | ||
| Office of Censorship. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| So when it came to war, we had no free speech. | ||
| You know, when it came to the Civil War, I could be wrong about this, but I vaguely remember reading that Abraham Lincoln suspended habeas corpus and suspended a lot of constitutional rights. | ||
| Scary. | ||
| When you're facing an existential threat, would you tolerate it? | ||
| And that's a very hard question to answer because then do you just trust the government when they say you're under threat? | ||
| Or that they'll relinquish it, if you even do give up to that. | ||
| I mean, the Office of Censorship went away a long time ago, and free speech has been emboldened throughout the past few decades, and now it's kind of being curtailed. | ||
| Kind of. | ||
| Yeah, it's being crushed completely. | ||
| There's a straight-up war against freedom of speech right now. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| Yeah, it's being shut down completely, to be honest. | ||
| So, if it came out that we had infiltrators, which, I mean, we know we do. | ||
| The Feds have arrested several people who were in the take from China. | ||
| Yeah, professors in Ivy League schools. | ||
| What would happen if Trump came out and said, these political operatives in high-profile positions have been taking salaries from China? | ||
| Here's the proof. | ||
| Do we just say, lock them up? | ||
| Do we just trust the federal government to arrest You know, potential political rivals? | ||
| Mike Pompeo said China has infiltrated this country at every level. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And this was in, I think, February? | ||
| I believe it. | ||
| Yeah, every level. | ||
| And then we're seeing these arrests, so these investigations are underway. | ||
| What happens if they start, you know, what happens if on November 1st, indictments drop, a bunch of Democrats get arrested, connections to China, Chinese collusion? | ||
| I mean... | ||
| I don't know, because a lot of people are blinded by what we talked about the news earlier. | ||
| It's like the news is sprouting all these, I can't believe she said this one thing, and it's like that's not what she said, that's not what she meant. | ||
| You're just taking everything out of context and blasting it out, and you have control of most of the airwaves that people listen to. | ||
| We've talked about the one thing that would prevent a civil war and a unified enemy. | ||
| A world war. | ||
| What if it's the inverse? | ||
| What if the one thing that could actually trigger the civil war is China? | ||
| That's what they're doing. | ||
| That is their war. | ||
| No, no, what I mean is when we find out who is actually working for them, I'm just reminded of what I just read about what Barr said about them. | ||
| The Communist Party, the Communist Party specifically, right? | ||
| We're literally speaking in defense of the citizens who are being repressed by the Chinese Communist Party. | ||
| And I'm just reminded of what I just read about what Barr said about them. | ||
| Are they're doing a full on economic blitzkrieg of art? | ||
| And they're taking over all facets of our government, a whole government like that's what he says. | ||
| That's when he said that I had to pause it. | ||
| And I was just like, dang. | ||
| So what have said that? | ||
| So what happens if Biden wins? | ||
| He I don't know, man. | ||
| I think our country's gone. | ||
| Yeah, that's what I believe. | ||
| I feel like that's what they want. | ||
| Doesn't it seem so crazy to think that, though? | ||
| Yes, absolutely. | ||
| It does. | ||
| To think that he's listening to him speak. | ||
| He walked up to his speech the other day. | ||
| He walked up and was out of breath for the first, like, two, three minutes. | ||
| Like, he took a while to just catch his breath. | ||
| It's like he walked to the stage and he was out of breath. | ||
| Well, it's not even about that. | ||
| It's about the TPP, the Trans-Pacific Partnership. | ||
| Well, yeah. | ||
| And the Obama administration. | ||
| And doesn't his son have a bunch of holdings in a bunch of Chinese companies? | ||
| I don't know the full details. | ||
| That's what I heard. | ||
| Outside of all of this stuff, let's talk about the Trans-Pacific Partnership. | ||
| Which was basically a free trade agreement for China and a bunch of other countries. | ||
| And the argument was that by having more of our financial interests in their country, it would lower the likelihood of war and stuff. | ||
| Yeah, but it would increase our dependence on them. | ||
| And the Obama administration was in favor of this. | ||
| They were two prominent people in the 2016 election who opposed it. | ||
| It was Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump. | ||
| And one of the first things Trump did after he got elected was he crushed it. | ||
| Done. | ||
| Gone. | ||
| Awesome. | ||
| It's one of the best things he's ever done for this country. | ||
| So I don't know the full details, but you know what's really shocking to me? | ||
| Do you know who the principal faction was that opposed the TPP? | ||
| It was the left. | ||
| It was leftist activists. | ||
| Really? | ||
| During, like, Occupy Wall Street, during, you know, all of this populist left uprising stuff. | ||
| Yeah, I vaguely remember. | ||
| I mean, I wasn't political back then. | ||
| They were all saying the TPP is crazy. | ||
| It must be stopped. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And now where are they? | ||
| Orange man bad. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| That's the only argument that they really have. | ||
| Well, they just they become indoctrinated into blind hatred of Trump. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Blind. | ||
| To me, Trump is just another president. | ||
| You know, for better or for worse, for good or for bad, I'm like, I don't know, yeah. | ||
| I remember when Obama got elected, there were a lot of bad things he did, and I, I talked, | ||
| you know, smack-talked him for it. | ||
| And I remember when Bush was in, was president, there was a lot of, a lot of bad things he did, | ||
| and they were both really bad. | ||
| And now here I am with Trump. | ||
| He's actually no new horse, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No new horse. | |
| So he's actually better. | ||
| He's trying to bring the troops home. | ||
| But, but outside of all this, it's like, my view of Trump is kind of like, I don't know, | ||
| sure, whatever, right? | ||
| Right. | ||
| Now, as we enter this conflict with this escalating Cold War, people are calling it with China. | ||
| I'm like, man, Joe Biden is a death sentence. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Joe Biden is voting for the suicide of this nation. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| I 100% agree. | ||
| These people don't get it. | ||
| A lot of these people in the suburbs, they don't get it, man. | ||
| They don't understand, like, They're just so accustomed to everything being there, to walking into a store and seeing, once again, there's my fruit and yogurt parfait, exactly as I've always wanted it. | ||
| We have been lulled into this luxury of American living. | ||
| And we're just so used to everything being perfect, we don't realize what's really at stake. | ||
| And it's a shame, because you don't know what you've got until it's gone. | ||
| Having been to a lot of these countries, that's where a lot of my perspective comes from. | ||
| First of all, growing up not particularly of means, to put it lightly. | ||
| I know what life is like when you microwave a can of beans and schlop some American cheese on it because that's all you got. | ||
| Or when you boil some spaghetti noodles with some ketchup because that's all you got. | ||
| Or ramen, crunching on some ramen when you're broke. | ||
| I've been to some of these countries. | ||
| I know how great this country is. | ||
| There are a lot of people who, what do they think Biden's going to offer them? | ||
| You know, I'm seeing all these polls. | ||
| The new Cook Political Electoral College has, has, you know, right now, if the election were to happen, Biden wins. | ||
| And not only that, but they're projecting based on fundraising that Democrats are clear to take the House, potentially the Senate. | ||
| Republicans are getting scared, they say. | ||
| I almost can't believe it. | ||
| I'm like... I don't believe it. | ||
| Are people really paying... you know, they're not paying attention. | ||
| They're seeing the fake news. | ||
| Ah, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| I disagree. | ||
| I've specifically talked to certain people who have been called, who have had these pollsters call them and talk to them. | ||
| And they lie. | ||
| And they straight up go, I am afraid to let anybody, anybody, let alone this random person trying to poll me on the phone, who I'm voting for, I told him Biden. | ||
| Every single person that has that I've talked to that has been polled. | ||
| That's what they say. | ||
| You know what I would say? | ||
| Every single one. | ||
| What would you say? | ||
| Vermin Supreme. | ||
| Vermin Supreme? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Do you guys know Vermin? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| He's like he's I think he was literally running like a legit run. | ||
| Boot helmet. | ||
| Yeah, he wears a boot on his head and he has like a he's a very very smart guy. | ||
| He's very funny. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He's a prominent activist. | ||
| That's what I would say. | ||
| But there was a Fox News segment going viral where they're all saying that they lie to the pollsters. | ||
| That they just say whatever, they don't care. | ||
| And I thought about it for a second and I thought to myself, maybe this is really it. | ||
| Not so much that people are scared, but it's also a kind of troll culture. | ||
| True. | ||
| Of getting the call and just laughing to yourself. | ||
| Yeah, I'm voting for Biden. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| So who did I vote for? | ||
| Murphy. | ||
| Yep, gonna vote for Biden. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And then you laugh when you hang up, like, I don't care who these people are. | ||
| They don't deserve my time and energy. | ||
| I really do think the easiest way to explain it, though, is when you see cancel culture, Cook Political, these are the people who do the ratings for like, you know, this district is Democrat 13 or Republican 8. | ||
| They said if Trump leaned in on the cancel culture message, it would work because regular people are scared. | ||
| They're scared of being canceled. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That makes sense to me. | ||
| Yep, me too. | ||
| I think regular people know that you say one wrong thing and your life can literally come to an end. | ||
| I mean, that's what they've been doing. | ||
| They're winning that war. | ||
| They're trying to convince people to not speak. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And that's exactly what they're going for. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| So with that being said, you hear these stories over and over again. | ||
| Cook Political is telling us people are scared of this. | ||
| Okay, so what happens when one of these journalists calls you Right. | ||
| Hi, is this Mr. Criggler? | ||
| I'm John Smith of the New York Times and want to know who you're voting for. | ||
| Tell me who you're voting for. | ||
| I would tell them the like button. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's right. | |
| It's the only thing I'm voting for and you should too. | ||
| When I get into that voting booth I'm gonna smash the like button. | ||
| No, but we did mention this the other day. | ||
| I think that may be the best, like, I think that makes the most sense. | ||
| I know it is because I've actually spoken to these people that have gotten these calls. | ||
| But like, Trump talks about the fake news all the time. | ||
| And how they lie and lie and lie and lie. | ||
| What person would volunteer up to a journalist, I'm your enemy, destroy my life? | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| They wouldn't do it. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Why would anyone be honest with that? | ||
| But hey man, hey man, I think you gotta be careful about wishful thinking too. | ||
| There's a lot of reason to believe that may be the case because it happened in 2016. | ||
| I'm not wishful thinking. | ||
| I'm out there talking to every single person I know. | ||
| Every day. | ||
| I'm trying to converse with them. | ||
| I'm pretty sure that I've converted some people to understand the truth of what's going on. | ||
| I'm just saying, there are a lot of people who are sitting back, like, I was talking to some local guy last week, and he's like, nah, Trump's gonna win, I don't care. | ||
| And I'm like, have you been following the news? | ||
| Do you know what's going on? | ||
| No, I don't know, Trump's gonna win, of course he'll win. | ||
| It's like, I hope you show up to the polls, man. | ||
| Because if you have this attitude where you think you won, it's exactly what cost Hillary the election. | ||
| Everybody was like, she can't possibly lose, who cares? | ||
| So there's a lot of factors to consider. | ||
| What if all the people who sat out 2016 because they didn't think Hillary could lose are now terrified and will come out? | ||
| How many people has Trump converted? | ||
| Is he gaining support? | ||
| Is he losing support? | ||
| Man, if you follow some people like Mike Cernovich, he's been tweeting that Trump's expecting a defeat because the RNC and Trump have been sending out these scammy emails that are like desperately begging for money in really creepy ways that sounds like they're trying to cash in as much as they can because they're going to lose 2020 and want to try again in 2022 or 2024. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| I don't have the answers. | ||
| You know what I do know though? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| I do know that if Joe Biden is president, there is a very high likelihood of bad things | ||
| happening in this country to the people who live here. | ||
| Donald Trump, his mission has been to boost the economy and to help Americans. | ||
| And one of the funniest things was that a lot of the things the left demands, the four-day work week, you know, work from home, extended benefits, parental leave, these things were actually being accomplished because the economy was doing so well. | ||
| That's a good point. | ||
| That there was like, I think it was Potbelly Sandwiches announced a four-day work week plus like parental leave or something, something crazy. | ||
| And I'm like, wow! | ||
| The progressives have been demanding that by mandate, Trump accomplished it through trade. | ||
| Yeah, he's doing good things. | ||
| So I think, you know, it's absurd to think Trump does not have the best interest of this country. | ||
| I think he loves America too much. | ||
| And I actually lean more towards probably international cooperation to a certain degree. | ||
| But to think that Donald Trump wants this country to be heard is ridiculous. | ||
| But they try to make that the narrative. | ||
| And we can see exactly how they do that with this McKennedy story we did. | ||
| So for those that are just, you know, tuning in or whatever, Kayleigh McEnany, they took a quote from her so out of context and every single news outlet runs with it to make them look crazy. | ||
| I know this. | ||
| Joe Biden is a crony who's been accused of being corrupt over and over and over again. | ||
| And hey, you know what? | ||
| So is Trump. | ||
| But the very least, Trump has been calling out China. | ||
| Trump is trying to pull our troops out of Afghanistan. | ||
| That's... | ||
| That's all I can say. | ||
| You got crony Biden with his crony family. | ||
| Everyone in his family has been corrupt. | ||
| All the news outlets have reported on it over and over and over again. | ||
| And the dude can't stay awake. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Why would anyone vote for this guy? | ||
| Now, I guess when it comes to the House and the Senate, you're dealing with state and district-level elections. | ||
| So when you've got a congressperson, you can actually show up and talk to him. | ||
| That might be a huge advantage for them that Republicans, you know, don't have. | ||
| But to see Biden win would shock me. | ||
| It'd be very shocking. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But, you know, I don't want to be... | ||
| Every four years, you know, South Park made fun of this when it was, I think, 2008 when Obama won. | ||
| They did an episode where everyone's like hiding in a cave because they think the world's about to end because he became president. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Yeah, I don't want to be that crazy, but I do think we're getting dangerously close to war with China. | ||
| Now, it's possible if Biden gets elected and he starts, you know, if the first thing Biden does is, you know, he drops to his knees in front of Xi Jinping and then bows to the floor, there's not going to be a war. | ||
| You know, right. If he sells the American people's manufacturing base back to China, there won't be a war. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Some people think that's a good thing. That's the point. | ||
| Hey, we'll avoid Thucydides trap. There won't be a war. | ||
| And then we won't have any jobs. And then yeah, the American people will, you know, lose their power, their | ||
| wealth, their status, their stature. | ||
| And China will expand and grow and Chinese influence will take over and there'll be more concentration camps. Yeah, | ||
| the more oppression. | ||
| The difference between the top 1.1%, whatever the point is now, because there's such a huge disparity between the rich, And everybody else. | ||
| That's just going to keep expanding. | ||
| It's going to keep getting wider and wider and wider. | ||
| We're not even going to be able to see them up there. | ||
| The people who own the factories, they don't care. | ||
| They don't care about the American public. | ||
| They're looking at their bottom dollar and they get the most profit when the manufacturing is over in China. | ||
| And they stay rich and the poor get poorer. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| By American. | ||
| At least there won't be war, I guess. | ||
| Buy American. | ||
| I guess we'll see. | ||
| Maybe that's what the vote is for. | ||
| There's a lot of things wrong with Biden. | ||
| There's a lot of things you can criticize Biden for, for sure. | ||
| There's a lot of things you can criticize Trump for. | ||
| Trump's been accused of being corrupt for a lot of reasons. | ||
| So is Joe Biden. | ||
| I'm going to back away from all these partisan arguments because everybody's going to have | ||
| their one thing where they're going to point to Trump, point to Biden. | ||
| I'll tell you this. | ||
| Good point. | ||
| Joe Biden is likely going to be enacting things like the TPP, which will allow all of our companies to move, all the jobs to move. | ||
| The job you have will be relocated. | ||
| All the tariffs that Trump put into place would probably be gone so that all the companies could go back to the cheap places. | ||
| The economy in the U.S. | ||
| will take a major hit. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Absolute major hit. | ||
| Because one of the things that's bolstered the American economy has been the return of manufa- partial return of manufacturing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Like, it's not not complete, but a lot of these jobs are coming back. | ||
| And that's been good for the country. | ||
| Well, unemployment was at an almost an all-time low. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| If not, at an all-time low. | ||
| Jim Kramer of CNBC, the greatest numbers of our lives. | ||
| Boom. | ||
| Period. | ||
| Before COVID. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| So, what is it now? | ||
| The economy's crashed because of COVID? | ||
| That way, when Joe Biden sells our manufacturing base back to China, we'll slightly improve now that COVID's over, and you won't know the difference? | ||
| Is that it? | ||
| Crazy man. | ||
| But it doesn't matter. | ||
| Biden's just the guy they're putting in place. | ||
| This is exactly what China wants. | ||
| Who's he gonna pick? | ||
| We're gonna blame him for it. | ||
| With COVID. | ||
| But it doesn't matter. | ||
| Biden's just the guy they're putting in place. | ||
| This is exactly what China wants. | ||
| Who's he gonna pick, Michelle Obama? | ||
| I think you'd win. | ||
| With Michelle? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Nostalgia vote. | ||
| A lot of people are going to see the celebrity, they're going to see the sparkle, and they're going to be like... I don't know. | ||
| Yay! | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Trump is... The Trump base is really solid. | ||
| He's strong, man. | ||
| His Trump base is strong. | ||
| But he's got to convince, right now, around 9% of the middle that he's the right choice. | ||
| And his message is being muddled up, particularly by the media. | ||
| Well, I'm doing what I can. | ||
| I don't, I don't, I don't, you know man, I don't... I'm just a small, you know, little lick of water in the ocean of America, you know? | ||
| The only thing I can say about Trump that right now for me is like, I probably would vote for him, you know, as it stands today as Afghanistan. | ||
| His continued efforts to try and reduce our troops, you know, our forces in the Middle East just makes the most sense to me out of everything I've learned, every place I've traveled to. | ||
| And there's literally nothing anyone on the left is going to say to me. | ||
| They're going to say Trump's a racist, but he's bringing our troops out of Afghanistan. | ||
| Yeah, but he's a racist. | ||
| Well, you know, Afghanistan. | ||
| Well, what about health care? | ||
| You know, we're killing people in these Middle Eastern countries and we need to leave them? | ||
| Right. | ||
| Look, I'm sorry, man. | ||
| I understand you want to talk about people losing their health insurance and stuff. | ||
| I think these things are all broken and I will definitely, you know, advocate for helping people get better and more affordable health care. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Right now, there's one thing that I can see happening. | ||
| The COVID, I can't control. | ||
| Trump can't control that either. | ||
| No. | ||
| But he can bring our troops back from the Middle East. | ||
| And he's trying. | ||
| And he's trying. | ||
| And the Democrats are shutting that down. | ||
| Well, it's both. | ||
| It's both. | ||
| The swamp is a monkey place. | ||
| There's actually more Republicans than Democrats trying to help Trump, but it's like eight Republicans sided with Trump and three Democrats did in terms of getting our troops back. | ||
| Matt Gaetz and Tulsi Gabbard, shout out. | ||
| Much respect. | ||
| Because they were like, let Trump do it? | ||
| Why? | ||
| Why not? | ||
| Why are we fighting this? | ||
| So if Joe, I don't trust Joe Biden at all. | ||
| He's part of the Obama administration. | ||
| They bolstered our troops. | ||
| I am the perfect example of the disaffected liberal who for the longest time heard these stories about how if corporations ran amok, we would reign them in to make sure they don't damage our country. | ||
| And now that the commons have been seized by big tech, the left is saying, but my private platform. | ||
| Now that Trump is the one saying, bring our troops home, the left is saying, well, you know, war. | ||
| Well, why do you think they pushed back Ghislaine's trial to 2021? | ||
| Just in case they actually win and then they can make it all go away. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| I hope people can forget about it. | ||
| Bill Barr is in charge. | ||
| Can't he do something about it? | ||
| Unless Bill Barr is like, we're not giving up, we're going to win this one. | ||
| I mean, who knows? | ||
| He clearly thinks China is the biggest threat. | ||
| He's not wrong. | ||
| That is pretty much what he was saying. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| He literally said that. | ||
| You know what it feels like? | ||
| It feels like we're in the last season of the show, and so the writing is getting sloppy and kind of all over the place. | ||
| Like the first season of Westworld was amazing, the second season got weird, now the third season just makes literally no sense. | ||
| It feels like that's what happens. | ||
| Season 2020 and we're just like, the writers are getting lazy. | ||
| It's literally the Fonz jumping over the shark tank on the motorcycle. | ||
| Yeah, they're complaining that they're being released. | ||
| An hour and a half later, it's like, what are you complaining about? | ||
| What exactly are you saying? | ||
| I just mean like, we got Ghislaine, or however you pronounce her name, you got China, you've got social justice infecting the federal government, you've got Trump and Biden. | ||
| It really does feel like we're just, the writers of the show are just like, I don't know, the president is Trump? | ||
| And they're like, okay, that'll make things interesting. | ||
| Have you seen the South Park episode where it turns out Earth is a reality TV show? | ||
| No. | ||
| I haven't watched a lot of South Park, to be honest. | ||
| Maybe that's it. | ||
| All right, well, let's jump over to the Super Chats, finally, because we went a little longer than we should have, but we're having a conversation. | ||
| So the first thing you got to do... Yeah, we had to talk about this stuff. | ||
| This is all serious. | ||
| This is a serious episode. | ||
| I mean, that's all of our episodes now. | ||
| But we laugh a lot, make fun of people sometimes. | ||
| I try as much as possible, but sometimes we got to do this stuff that people need to talk about. | ||
| And I can't stress that enough. | ||
| Talk. | ||
| Be open. | ||
| Don't be afraid to lose some friends. | ||
| I've lost some friends and honestly, I don't care because they are just completely blind. | ||
| They want to be mad at me. | ||
| I don't care. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| Someone came back to me today and said, you know what? | ||
| I unfriended you. | ||
| I'm sorry. | ||
| I'm sorry I unfriended you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| My friend, I was talking to one of my best friends over here. | ||
| He's also a Trump supporter and we were talking about it and you know what his friend said? | ||
| Oh man, go, go look at this podcast. | ||
| And he gave him our video. | ||
| Of us talking about Uncle Tom, the documentary. | ||
| He's like, watch this and then go watch the documentary. | ||
| So my friend hit me up today. | ||
| He's like, you know, I owe you an apology. | ||
| Wow, man. | ||
| Sorry. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| So like, don't be afraid. | ||
| We must have conversations. | ||
| Critical thinking is the reason humans made it this far. | ||
| Listen, bro, bro. | ||
| Do we look like conservatives? | ||
| No. | ||
| Like, do I look like a conservative? | ||
| You're a hippie. | ||
| You look more conservative than I am, and I think I'm way more conservative than you. | ||
| Yeah, definitely. | ||
| I absolutely am. | ||
| You've been reading all this stuff, and you're like, I agree with these things, and I'm like, what? | ||
| I'm still a little milquetoast fence-sitter, huh? | ||
| Well, you're doing your job. | ||
| But what I mean is, like, dude, we're the traditional liberal of the city who have been now entrenched in politics. | ||
| And here's how we view things. | ||
| You know, if you go back seven years or whatever, my politics are, like, very much so basic Democrat. | ||
| But now everything's gone so insane and the threats have become so real. | ||
| Here we are having these conversations. | ||
| I was talking to somebody who said that Like, we're clearly liberals who are talking about these important issues, and that's the weirdest thing about it. | ||
| It's like, conservatives are suit-wearing, you know, their hair's slicked back, but I'm like, well, the thing about the economic policy is... There's many people that are going, one of these days, we're going to tune into Timcast IRL and Adam's going to have short hair and a suit on. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That'd be so fun. | |
| No, it's not true. | ||
| Not going to happen. | ||
| Because you're a gaming skateboarder musician who eats vegan wings. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| And what's happening is that There is a real weird shift happening in this country, where liberals and conservatives have come together, and what the left is, is not the liberals anymore. | ||
| Correct, absolutely. | ||
| We gotta read these Super Chats though, but I wanna say this too, before we read this, make sure to hit the like button, seriously subscribe if you haven't, because it just, you know, let YouTube know that you really like the channel when you comment and everything like that. | ||
| And I want to say, please follow at Majid Nawaz. | ||
| So I'll show you his Twitter account one more time. | ||
| It's M-A-A... | ||
| Let me actually go to his full account right here. | ||
| Yeah, let's pull it over. There we go. | ||
| M-A-A-J-I-D-N-A-W-A-Z I just started following him. | ||
| He's a very prominent commentator. | ||
| He is intellectual dark web type personality. | ||
| You can see they mentioned Steven Pinker, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, and LBC, if you might imagine. | ||
| He's a very, very smart fellow. | ||
| Coined the term regressive left, calls out the social justice nonsense, but he's a relatively liberal dude. | ||
| My understanding is he's engaging in a hunger strike. | ||
| He's doing much more than I am. | ||
| He's got a high-profile platform, he's calling this out, he's on a radio show, so he's got a platform too. | ||
| I want to give him all the respect I can and help him do what he needs to do to call out China for the abuses that are going on these concentration camps. | ||
| Yeah, definitely. | ||
| And he tweeted, and I retweeted him, he said if he goes down he's passing the torch and he wants me to pick it up, and I'm like... | ||
| I don't know if I can do a hunger strike, dude. | ||
| It takes a lot of strength, man. | ||
| My respect to Majid for this, so please, please, you know, follow him, see what he's up to, and, you know, let's all keep this conversation going to the best of our abilities. | ||
| And now let's read some of these superchats for all of you guys. | ||
|

| JMaxx says, as a father of two, someone would end up in the ground. | ||
| If you have a kid or want kids, we need to be proactive. | ||
| Pay attention to your local government and keep up on what's happening in your kids' schools. | ||
| Keep up the good reporting, guys. | ||
| Appreciate it, man. | ||
| Definitely. | ||
| And I think that's in reference to the LA County forced... Yeah. | ||
| That's scary stuff, man. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| Oh, come on. | ||
| Take care of your kids. | ||
| You know what's going on. | ||
| I just want to make it easy for me. | ||
| There's videos of teachers going, you know, I don't follow the curriculum. | ||
| I just teach racism. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| We don't actually use the book. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And they're like, what year was the country founded? | ||
| Oh, 17 something. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Teach that. | ||
| What? | ||
| I think the China story, man. | ||
| I think we need this, man. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| genocide in China trending if we all tweet at Trump and Trump jr. The story | ||
| just a huge wave of tweets can't block us all spin that effing UFO I think the | ||
| China story man I think we need we need this man I don't know Trump's fighting | ||
| for a re-election was locked out of Twitter. | ||
| Yeah, Trump Jr.' 's locked out of Twitter. | ||
| Is he still? | ||
| He was. | ||
| 23 hours. | ||
| Trump Jr. | ||
| got locked out. | ||
| This whole thing has been crazy, man. | ||
| It's gonna get crazier. | ||
| We're less than three months, three and a half months away from the election. | ||
| I can't believe it. | ||
| It's gonna go nuts. | ||
| EpicMonkey says, Adam, how can I get a hold of you guys? | ||
| I really want to get on your show. | ||
| I have a lot of knowledge about what is going on. | ||
| No conspiracy but perspective. | ||
| I'm willing to part with $100 to reach you guys. | ||
| I've tried reaching out to the three of you on Parler recently. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| What would be the best way? | ||
| We have the email, I guess. | ||
| Spintheufo at gmail.com. | ||
| You can send all your information there. | ||
| We'll see what you have to offer. | ||
| David Mesmer says, Harrison Bergeron is hands down my favorite short story. | ||
| It's only like four pages and definitely worth the read. | ||
| Love the show. | ||
| Y'all keep it up. | ||
| Appreciate it. | ||
| The Captain Z says, neverchina.com for products not made in China. | ||
| Ooh, cool. | ||
| Oh, what was that? | ||
| Neverchina.com. | ||
| Neverchina.com. | ||
| Haven't researched the companies just yet, but I like the gist of it. | ||
| China needs U.S. | ||
| for food. | ||
| A lot of China's oil is delivered by the ocean, which we control. | ||
| Lot less food, little oil, victory for U.S. | ||
| But what they're doing is more subversive than that. | ||
| It's not just about a hot war, it's a cold war, and there's influence to be peddled. | ||
| Uh, that's not a site. | ||
| NeverChina's not a site? | ||
| NeverChina.com. | ||
| Oh. | ||
| Let me Google it. | ||
| Yeah, try and Google it. | ||

|
I'll find out. | |
| Sporkwich says, the number of people just denying these things are happening as clickbait lies, conspiracy theories. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| This is the answer to the question of how the German people allowed the Nazis to do what they did. | ||
| They didn't want to believe. | ||
| And I talk to my friends about some of the things they post, and I'm like, you realize you're basically saluting. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| When you don't know, you don't want to know, you don't care, you're just saying, I agree with these people. | ||
| It's like, well, you're letting them do whatever they want. | ||
| Yep, passive agreement. | ||
| It is Chinanever.com. | ||
| Oh, Chinanever, not NeverChina. | ||
| MH says, did you get the books I sent, How Trump is Making Black America Great Again by Horace Cooper and Taboo by Wilford Riley? | ||
| I actually haven't seen those ones yet. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Not yet? | ||
| Maybe they'll come soon. | ||
| I'd like to read those. | ||
| Whoa, what's going on with YouTube? | ||
| Yeah, they make it really hard to get through Super Chats, man, to be honest. | ||
| Gareth Green says, Pool Sunday. | ||
| The whole point of capitalism is that business doesn't have to care about countries. | ||
| Cheaper goods means more goods for more people. | ||
| Of course, it's not free trade with an authoritarian regime like China, so tariffs on those grounds are fair. | ||
| Ruggero Rebelato says, Has Tim Pool announced voting for Trump already? | ||
| I'm a Brazilian, ex-Israeli soldier. | ||
| Hope average U.S. | ||
| don't have to see what a man can do to each other. | ||
| With Bolsonaro, we are safe here for now. | ||
| Love you, USA. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| I have not announced that I will definitively do it. | ||
| But I did say that if the election were to be held today, I probably would. | ||
| And if Trump is going... I just say this because we don't know what's going to happen between now and then. | ||
| And I'm not going to play this game where it's like, you know, in three months something happens and I don't know. | ||
| TooLazyToMakeUpAName says, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard Superbug. | ||
| All right, thank you. | ||
| Let's see, uh, Labrash says, Hey everyone, I'm a lucky uncle to two nieces, and one of my biggest issues, is which I'm very vocal, is when it comes to kids, everything about their future and safety, they are the future victims. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Man, we got so many super chats. | ||
| Thank you everyone. | ||
| YouTube is overloading. | ||
| I don't know what that is. | ||
| says, $10 for Lydia and Adam likening tweets I put out today. Thanks. The rest is for Tim | ||
| Poole to speak on the anomaly tweets and if Tim will livestream debate him. I don't know | ||
| what that is. I don't look at any Twitter interaction, so I have no idea what that's | ||
| about. | ||
| Gareth Green says, by outsourcing of jobs is a natural consequence of price controls, | ||
| labor regulations, and other violations of the natural market. | ||
| Employment is a private contract in which employees lease their bodies to their employees, employers, for certain hours a day. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| Kaleem Mims. | ||
| You may not get this reference, but it feels like SJWs won't be happy until they turn the world into Slappy Bob Safety. | ||
| Learn a Torium from the Fairly Oddparents, just with creepier steps. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I think I'm just gonna give this one to Trump, honestly. | ||
| Havetome says, Creepy Zoom event on Eventbrite. | ||
| International meeting. | ||
| No to the new Cold War, July 25th. | ||
| I don't know what that is. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| I'll look it up. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I mean, I honestly have no idea what it would take. | ||
| across the country. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| I'll look it up. | ||
| Villa Music Dude says, do you think after a disaster there is a possibility that we | ||
| can return to our heritage? | ||
| After listening to the Rogan podcast yesterday, it made me realize how far off we are now | ||
| from where we started. | ||
| Oh yeah. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I mean, I honestly have no idea what it would take. | ||
| Do we want to go back to certain things? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| I think we're too far gone. | ||
| We've changed. | ||
| We've changed very much so. | ||
| Ryan Cabral says, appreciate the work y'all do. | ||
| Have any of you guys heard about the recall for California State Governor Gavin Newsom? | ||
| Keep up the good work. | ||
| And Adam, I'm going to get my own UFO. | ||
| Love it when that thing spins. | ||
| Awesome. | ||
| I haven't heard of it. | ||
| I did know that he just became governor. | ||
| But from what I'm hearing, he's a terrible governor. | ||
| I think they've tried a couple times to recall him without success. | ||
| Yeah, well they should keep trying. | ||
| Yeah, I know, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let me spin that for him. | |
| BigMacAttack says, With how the admin panel for Twitter shows that they do in fact blacklist people in various forms, could Congress give Twitter's CEO a summons for effectively lying to Congress in the past where they claimed they didn't do such things? | ||
| I would imagine they could. | ||
| You have to go back and look at the specifics, because I'm sure there's some weasel words. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's the issue. | |
| Of course, yeah. | ||
| They're going to say, well, what does blacklist really mean? | ||
| Well, we actually said we don't do white lists. | ||
| No, no, we don't have a list that's black paper with names on it. | ||
| It's not black paper, yeah. | ||
| Yeah, it's red. | ||
| It's an orange button. | ||
| Harpoon Trading says Tim, let's say your house is being destroyed by a random rogue goose who lays golden eggs for the whole world to enjoy. | ||
| The caveat being, the goose will not lay any eggs for only just you. | ||
| Do you kill that goose? | ||
| The answer is yes I do for one reason. | ||
| If you just pump gold into the money supply, it helps no one. | ||
| Now, actually, I would say this. | ||
| No, I wouldn't kill the goose, because we could use that gold for legitimate scientific research purposes. | ||
| We could use those metals for, you know, imagine if gold was that abundant. | ||
| It'd be amazing. | ||
| It would be worthless, because everybody would have an infinite supply of gold. | ||
| That's good for other stuff. | ||
| They actually just found a comet that is almost all gold. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| It's worth more than the entire world's economy. | ||
| What it wouldn't if it came, because it would be worthless. | ||
| Well, if they could go mine it and bring it back in. | ||
| It just safely landed on Earth. | ||
| Gold would become worthless overnight. | ||
| Here's the gold meteor coming down and smashing the like button. | ||
| The Earth's economy. | ||
| The Earth's economy. | ||
| Poofy says, Hi Tim, Lids, and Adam. | ||
| Have you had a chance to watch Don't Walk Run's newest AOC vid? | ||
| Town Hall featured insane concepts like restorative justice and lineage of harm. | ||
| I help him with his scripts, and we watched all two hours of that. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| I'll check it out. | ||
| I love those videos. | ||
| Those are great. | ||
| Don't Walk Run on YouTube are really great videos. | ||
| I don't know it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's funny. | ||
| It's a really good presentation. | ||
| TooLazyToMakeUpAName says, Ride with me, brother. | ||
| Green Mountain Boys unite. | ||
| I don't know what that means, but my ride. | ||
| Joshua Kitchen says, Read Booker T. Washington. | ||
| One of the greatest educators in all time. | ||
| Full stop. | ||
| His essays on character are some of the most brilliant thoughts you will ever read. | ||
| They talk about him in the documentary, Uncle Tom. | ||
| They bring him up. | ||
| He's a legend, man. | ||
| He's one of the greatest. | ||
| Legend, yeah. | ||
| Ponton says, Tim, have you seen the new video from Mr. Reagan called The Left-Wing Plot to Cause a Race War in America? | ||
| If not, please watch it. | ||
| I look forward to hearing your analysis and hope it answers many of the questions you still have. | ||
| I don't really watch a lot of YouTube except for skateboarding and guns. | ||
| You know, it's funny. | ||
| I used to say it was skateboarding and anime clips. | ||
| Now it's skateboarding and guns because of what's been going on. | ||
| I've been watching a ton of YouTubers. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| I've been watching a lot of Hickok. | ||
| 45. | ||
| Oh, he's so cool. | ||
| He's got a big YouTube channel. | ||
| He's got 5 million subs. | ||
| Adoptive grandpa. | ||
| But there was one I just watched recently where he has like a full auto... I think it's a Glock maybe? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I think so, yeah. | ||
| But those are so much fun, man. | ||
| He's just holding his like... Yeah, it's fun videos, man. | ||
| That guy's great. | ||
| And YouTube keeps recommending these videos to me too, so I'm like, alright, you know, whatever. | ||
| Just keep watching it, man. | ||
| Alright, let's see. | ||
| Where are we at now? | ||
| Gareth Green says, Did you hear about the murder of men's rights lawyer Mark Angelucci or how the Libertarian Party endorsed Black Lives Matter? | ||
| Also support Hong Kong by listening to 80s and 90s canto pop and watching Hong Kong movies of the same era. | ||
| I heard about both of those. | ||
| We talked about the Libertarian Party endorsing Black Lives Matter. | ||
| That to me was absolutely insane. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because what the Libertarian Party said was, it's not enough to be passively not racist, we must be actively anti-racist. | ||
| The Libertarian Party telling someone what they must do is the antithesis of the Libertarian Party. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| The Libertarian Party is, you do your thing! | ||
| We're trying to minimize government here and have everyone be free to live and, you know, let live, but... | ||
| Hey, they wanted to get in on the pop culture stuff, so there you go. | ||
| Maybe we can cater to the crowd. | ||
| Chris Crow says, agreed we should all act Donald J. Trump now with support and ask him to address Uyghur atrocities. | ||
| Help us get it trending. | ||
| I mean, Majid Nawaz, man. | ||
| He's in London, I think. | ||
| Good dude. | ||
| Flappy Dinosaur says, can you comment on Ghislaine Maxwell or Wayfair? | ||
| You're one of the few media outlets that I trust that is unbiased. | ||
| I would love to see your team win a Pulitzer. | ||
| That's never going to happen because we're never going to apply for one. | ||
| Do you have to apply? | ||
| I'm fairly certain you apply. | ||
| Really? | ||
| And the whole thing is bogus. | ||
| They don't just, they don't pick people that they think deserve it? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| You know you win an Emmy? | ||
| You ask for it. | ||
| Seriously? | ||
| You pay, you pay. | ||
| The whole thing is rigged. | ||
| That's what's going on with Tom McDonald right now. | ||
| He... | ||
| I don't remember exactly what it takes to get a gold record version. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And he sold that many copies. | ||
| He's got the proof, but he does it all himself. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Doesn't go through a label, just his own. | ||
| And he's like, they won't give it to me because I won't pay the... You can make his own. | ||
| So he ordered and got these plastic gold records. | ||
| And he's like, yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's amazing. | |
| That's awesome. | ||
| I like this guy. | ||
| That dude's great. | ||
| Yeah, cool dude. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right, let's see. | |
| Flowification says, based on the history I've read, civil strife and far-left movements give rise to the third position, fascism. | ||
| Do you think it's possible a third position movement could gain traction in the U.S.? | ||
| I do, and I've actually seen this quite a bit. | ||
| Antifa will give rise to fascism in the far right easily. | ||
| Regular people getting sick and tired of the violence will eventually say, save us. | ||
| And there's some speculation that in fact Joe Biden will win. | ||
| Joe Biden's gonna win, the Democrats will take, the House and the Senate, and when everything gets worse than it's ever been, that contributes to us not knowing what's gonna happen come November. | ||
| No idea. | ||
| We'll see, man. | ||
| I'm taking it one day at a time right now. | ||
| Yup. | ||
| I gotta admit, it is really exhausting every day. | ||
| Tell me about it. | ||
| When there's like new polls and new electoral college and I'm just like, I read 500 of these in a week! | ||
| I'm starting to cherish our skate sessions, man. | ||
| Yeah, dude. | ||
| It's the best. | ||
| It's like everything's just off. | ||
| It is. | ||
| I'm just focusing on landing that tre flip. | ||
| Just having a good old time. | ||
| Just cruising. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Trying to get that nollie flip rock. | ||
| Snafu says, if you want to watch anything about guns, watch Brandon Herrera or Demolition Ranch. | ||
| Mostly humor. | ||
| I did watch some of the Demolition Ranch stuff. | ||
| That's fun. | ||
| You guys are amazing. | ||
| Keep up the good work. | ||
| Will do. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| Tracy Nolan says, Adam, it's called the ripple effect. | ||
| One drop in a pond creates many ripples. | ||
| Don't get discouraged. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| We won't. | ||
| I won't. | ||
| Truly, uh, really sad news, man. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Grant was one of the, uh, he was the B-team on the Mythbusters. | ||
| Is that what they call it? | ||
| I guess I was the B-team, yeah. | ||
| Yeah, and, uh, man, it was always fun. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Mythbusters was such a huge meme. | ||
| It was a good show. | ||
| Everybody I knew was always talking about Mythbusters. | ||
| Because it was a show we all watched, but it wasn't part necessarily of mainstream pop culture in that sense. | ||
| But it was pop culture in the fact that they talked about all the things that we talked about. | ||
| They're like, oh, this thing that everyone's talking about? | ||
| Well, let's do that. | ||
| Let's talk about that. | ||
| Let's get the science. | ||
| I remember, this is like in the 2000s, or whenever the show was prominent. | ||
| I can't remember what year it was. | ||
| My friends would post them on Facebook saying something like, you know, let's be honest, I know all of you watched that episode of Mythbusters. | ||
| Like, post your thoughts. | ||
| And everyone's like, yeah, we just watched Mythbusters, it was so cool. | ||
| And Graham was a big part of it. | ||
| He was 49, right? | ||
| Funny enough, scientific method is also whiteness. | ||
| That's why it's sad to see, you know, Adam Savage, is that his name? | ||
| Yeah, I think so. | ||
| Going like full-on weirdo resistance as social justice. | ||
| Yeah, it doesn't fly with what you do, man. | ||
| Like, look at Michael Moore. | ||
| His brain just exploded recently. | ||
| Someone just told me to really watch his new documentary because it's like anti-global warming. | ||
| Michael Moore's new documentary calls environmentalism a big scam. | ||
| That's basically what it is, right? | ||
| The left is coming after him. | ||
| It seems like all of a sudden they pulled Michael Moore too much and eventually he just | ||
| snapped back. | ||
| Flew to the other side. | ||
| What was Michael Moore championing back in the day? | ||
| The working class people of Flint and Detroit and Michigan. | ||
| Now he's all just like full on SJW but then I guess he just... | ||
| Stretched out rubber band. | ||
| Yeah, just like that. | ||
| It snapped. | ||
| But now he's now he's like environmentalism is a scam. | ||
| Here's a documentary and people are like, what? | ||
| What just happened? | ||
| Right? | ||
| I don't think he's saying that global warming is a scam. | ||
| I haven't seen it. | ||
| I want to check it out, though. | ||
| I think what he's saying is that scams have emerged to manipulate people based on this ideology. | ||
| Now that I can get behind. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Yep. | ||
| Does that make sense to me? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Doom Crow says, can we have a discussion on yellow journalism at some point? | ||
| I mean, technically, I think we talk about that kind of a lot. | ||
| You know, I just rag on the media all the time. | ||
| And it's just... | ||
| Yeah, it's fake news, you know? | ||
| Bobby McCoy says, love your work. | ||
| Have condo with my boys about the executive order. | ||
| Ended up writing a whole doc with all the sources linking to all the law and regulation changes. | ||
| Want me to post? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Yeah, you want to email that to, was it spintheufo? | ||
| Spintheufo at gmail.com. | ||
| Send that, that'd be really, really, really great. | ||
| Yeah, I'd like to see that. | ||
| Yeah, and we can go through it. | ||
| Nick Warren says, you should reach out to Rogan and see if he'll have Magid Noir's on. | ||
| That seems like something Joe would want to help publicize. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Good point. | ||
| Well, I'm not, I can't. | ||
| You know, it's like people are always like, call Joe and tell him. | ||
| It's a good idea. | ||
| It is a good idea. | ||
| But trying to call Joe to, you know, tell him, I don't know. | ||
| I mean, you know, I'll definitely do, I'll hit up Joe and be like, dude, look at Magid. | ||
| Because I'm pretty sure, I think Magid may have already been on the Rogan podcast. | ||
| I think it's worth it. | ||
| I mean, look, let's be real. | ||
| Magic Noir is a big platform and 270,000 followers. | ||
| It's a lot of people, yeah. | ||
| He's a high-profile intellectual dark web, you know, personality. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And what he's doing is absolutely amazing. | ||
| I bow before his grandeur, man. | ||
| Yeah, he was on with Sam Harris. | ||
| Oh, he was on the Rugged Podcast. | ||
| Yeah, he's in. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| When was that? | ||
| Was it a while ago? | ||
| Episode 1107, so whatever, Joe's on now. | ||
| It was a year ago, huh? | ||
| It was a while ago, yeah. | ||
| What episode are we on? | ||
| Are we on? | ||
| For our show? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| 96? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Is it 96? | ||
| Oh, 96 episodes! | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So four more episodes. | ||
| The 100th episode. | ||
| We gotta do something special for that. | ||
| Yeah, we'll have to come up with something. | ||
| It's pretty cool. | ||
| 100th episode? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, dude. | |
| I have no idea. | ||
| Yeah, that's awesome. | ||
| I can't believe it's been over 90. | ||
| Duane Turner says, ever looked into Holodomor and the correlation of the Democratic Socialist Party of the Bolsheviks with the modern Marxist-led movements of RAM and BLM using their Antifa tactics? | ||
| You should. | ||
| Tried posting four times. | ||
| I know a little bit about those things, but you know, we'll dig in. | ||
| I know about it from Jordan Peterson talking about it. | ||
| He talks about, he referenced them a lot because it parallels a lot with what's going on right now. | ||
| So that's where I get it from. | ||
| Ruggero says, so much from the chat. | ||
| Love you guys. | ||
| Adam, you are amazing. | ||
| Tim, beacon of courage. | ||
| Lydia, so sweet and intelligent. | ||
| USA is amazing. | ||
| First time I could shoot an AR without feeling scared the next day. | ||
| Shout out to other Israeli lone soldiers. | ||
| It said shout out, so I was like, wait, are you talking about like injuring somebody? | ||
| Well, I'm glad you can not be afraid anymore. | ||
| Rick Hunter says, Tim, watch Military Arms Channel, Hank Strange and IraqVeteran8888, Collian Noir. | ||
| Great info on true Americans. | ||
| Yeah, is it Collian? | ||
| Collian. | ||
| Yeah, that dude's cool too. | ||
| He's so cool. | ||
| Um, I definitely want to do something with him. | ||
| Maybe, maybe once we get the, we've talked about it before, I'm pretty sure. | ||
| Yeah, he offered you training after your thing. | ||
|

|
Right, right, right, right. | |
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| So we got to get him on. | ||
| Yeah, for sure. | ||
| Once we, once we get to the big space where our top secret hidden location, we have our range set up and everything. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| We definitely got to reach out. | ||
| But if you want to be a guest on the show, you got to sign a waiver. | ||
| And then the van pulls up randomly. | ||
| Throws a black bag. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| We were just talking about it. | ||
| Back with the black bagging. | ||
| So I have a really important question for you, Adam. | ||
| It's just one of those profound questions of the universe that, how could you have 37,000 viewers and only 19,000 likes on a YouTube channel? | ||
| It's a math equation that I'm just wondering, maybe a powerful mind... Well, Tim, what you see, not everyone's smashing the like button like they should be. | ||
| So, I don't have it. | ||
| Which one? | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| It should have been obvious. | ||
| Does that actually work? | ||
| I think it works. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I think they heard it. | ||
| I'm just saying smash the like button because it's 10.04 and we're going to start winding down. | ||
| No, but thanks for showing up everyone. | ||
| We really appreciate everyone showing up. | ||
| We're going to be getting a A stream deck just for Adam, and he's going to be in charge of making noise. | ||
| Gratuitously making noise. | ||
| I had a tweet yesterday about what sounds I should have on my board. | ||
| If you think you know something good, go on my page on Twitter and you can give some ideas. | ||
| You can find the tweet. | ||
| It's from yesterday, so you might have to scroll down a little bit. | ||
| I have two votes. | ||
| One is Trump going, wrong, wrong. | ||
| And the other one is, excuse me, excuse me. | ||
| I need that one the most. | ||
| Yeah, excuse me. | ||
| And Jada. | ||
| Of course, I'm going to have some Trump sounds. | ||
| Of course. | ||

| You can't let him down. | ||
| Adam cast IRL. | ||
| This Saturday, I'm going to be doing a deep dive into Donald Trump. | ||
| It's going to be a big episode because Everyone thinks they know who he is. | ||
| And I think most people, a lot of people probably do, but I've been doing nothing but reading about this. | ||
| I've been doing a lot of researching everything. | ||
| My brain is just a sponge right now, just soaking up everything. | ||
| But I've learned a lot about this guy. | ||
| I'm going to talk about his family history, what he's been through, where, where he came from, the stuff he's done, um, before he became president. | ||
| And especially the things he's done as president, because I feel like that needs to be put to rest. | ||
| And we're going to talk about it. | ||
| So follow me on AdamCastIRL. | ||
| Come hit me up. | ||
| And Saturday, Ian will join me. | ||
| And that's on YouTube. | ||
| AdamCastIRL is Adam's Saturday show on YouTube. | ||
| That's correct, yeah. | ||
| Yeah, you can subscribe to his channel. | ||
| It's basically Adam's Deep Dive. | ||
| It's the same set and everything. | ||
| Yeah, it's basically this. | ||
| If you like hanging out, it's basically the same thing. | ||
| We do, on TimCast, we jam. | ||
| At Friday shows, at my show, we jam every show. | ||
| Every show. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Every show. | ||
| Ian's a great musician. | ||
| He jams out. | ||
| I like to play some music, so after the Trump deep dive, we will be jamming out also. | ||
| And tomorrow. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| We're gonna jam out tomorrow night. | ||
| Adam pops open the whiskey and we chill out. | ||
| It's a Friday night. | ||
| I do. | ||
| Because we can't go to the movies, we can't go to the bars, so we're like... And neither can you. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| So, you know, we try to let go of the news and kind of hang out after the show. | ||
| The crazy thing is things were reopening and then they started closing again. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I asked this question on Twitter. | ||
| When did we switch from tracking COVID deaths to ignoring them and only tracking COVID cases? | ||
| That's what I'm trying to talk about. | ||
| I didn't mean it as like, you know, haha, I got you. | ||
| I mean, as a literal question, like I, I remember early on, we were like, wow, how many people have died today? | ||
| Right. | ||
| And they were on the news. | ||
| There were like a hundred deaths in New York and a hundred deaths. | ||
| And then now it's like, you know, more cases, more cases, but no deaths. | ||
| Well, the deaths are going down and it's like, yeah, because, and that's why Trump was like, we're just testing everyone. | ||
| And it's turned, you know, the death, if you compare the death rates now, it's just getting a smaller and smaller death rate because more people are just alive with COVID. | ||
| And it's like, so it's not really that big of a deal. | ||
| It seems. | ||
| And they're cheering for New York. | ||
| They're like, New York's done a great job, you know, because the death rate is down and the infection rate is down. | ||
| Look at how much the death rate's dropping. | ||
| And it's like, yeah, because you killed so many people, Cuomo. | ||
| When you just let the virus do whatever it wants, eventually it stops. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Congratulations. | ||
| But you made a good point, though. | ||
| These people that are like, ha, gotcha. | ||
| You know, that is the emotional trigger that they're not trying to have a critical conversation about what we're really talking about. | ||
| They're just so angry that you could suggest that COVID isn't this crazy pandemic killing everyone. | ||
| And it's like, well, maybe it's not. | ||
| I'm just trying to have a conversation. | ||
| I'm just trying to ask a question. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Let's talk about it. | ||
| Can we talk about it? | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| I just want to screech at you. | ||
| We're supposed to be winding now, but I gotta ask. | ||
| Did you see that video from the Portland police officer? | ||
| He's a black officer talking about how the white antifa keep trying to shut him down and stop conversations. | ||
| No, no. | ||
| It's an amazing video. | ||
| No, I gotta see this. | ||
| He's basically like... | ||
| You know, it's 21 days or whatever of these riots, and he's like, a young black woman comes up to me and is asking me, like, why don't you talk to us? | ||
| And he says, to be honest, every time I try, some, like, white, you know, Antifa person comes up, and then as soon as he says that, a white Antifa woman gets in the way and starts yelling, and then the young black woman goes, he said you were gonna do that! | ||
| And that's it. | ||
| He's like, these people who think they have a right to tell us what we can or can't say, it's crazy. | ||
| Hit me up on Twitter. | ||
| I know you guys are paying attention right now. | ||
| Tag me in that video. | ||
| Yeah, it's a great video. | ||
| I appreciate you. | ||
| It's a powerful video, man. | ||
| I want to see that. | ||
| Alright, we're going to wrap things up here. | ||
| So again, smash the like button. | ||
| Let's wrap this up. | ||
| Subscribe, and we will see you all tomorrow at 8pm plus. | ||
| Late night jam session, and Adam's going to crack open the whiskey. | ||
