you you | |
you governor Cuomo for some reason put kovat patients into | ||
nursing homes resulting in the death of thousands of elderly individuals | ||
he had There was that medical ship that was brought to New York City. | ||
Donald Trump deployed that. | ||
He didn't use it. | ||
He had the Javits Center. | ||
He didn't use it. | ||
It was only at, I think, 30% capacity. | ||
So for some reason, he sent thousands of sick people into nursing homes, and then we saw thousands of elderly people die. | ||
Well, now we have huge news. | ||
In a private conversation, one of Cuomo's top aides admitted that they were covering up the data. | ||
Now, we've got Republican Rep Stefanik calling for prosecution of Cuomo. | ||
This is crazy, man. | ||
I mean, I'm glad the New York Times is reporting on this. | ||
I'm glad this stuff is coming out, but this is truly some sick and insane stuff. | ||
Now, we'll talk about this and what's going on, and I'll just leave the intro there because this is... I mean, look. | ||
We got other stories. | ||
We got some fun stuff. | ||
There's a story coming out about Pentagon FOIA request claiming UFO debris might actually be a real thing, and we're gonna have a laugh and have a good time. | ||
But, you know, opening up with the most important story of the year so far, and probably even last year, Cuomo won Emmys. | ||
He was heralded. | ||
He wrote a book about how to deal with COVID, and he literally killed like 13,000 people. | ||
It's dark stuff, man. | ||
So we'll jump into it. | ||
Joining us today, and it's a strange contrast, we have comedian Sam Tripoli. | ||
Old people are dying, and now some comedy! | ||
We're going to have a comedian here to make you laugh. | ||
Great introduction there, Tim. | ||
Thank you. | ||
But what am I supposed to say? | ||
These are dark times. | ||
The world is miserable. | ||
Here's a comedian for you. | ||
I mean, it's a good balance. | ||
At least we're laughing. | ||
Dude, I appreciate it, man. | ||
Thanks for having me, dude. | ||
I appreciate it. | ||
You just want to just do a quick intro for who you are, what you do? | ||
My name's Sam Tripley. | ||
I'm a stand-up comic. | ||
I have a podcast called Tinfoil Hat with Sam Tripley. | ||
I'm touring around doing stand-up. | ||
Next week I'm in Raleigh at the Good Nights in Raleigh, North Carolina. | ||
And I've had Luke on my show and I'm super excited about being here, man. | ||
Thanks for having me out. | ||
unidentified
|
For sure. | |
We also got Luke. | ||
Thank you so much for coming all the way from L.A. | ||
I hear even the homeless people are moving out, so things are going great in Los Angeles. | ||
Also, just a thing I wanted to address. | ||
I was smack-talking someone on Twitter recently, live during the show, and they were like, wait, wait, you're not really responding to me. | ||
Yes, I am. | ||
I actually live tweet sometimes on twitter.com forward slash LukeWeAreChange. | ||
And, I don't know why I have to keep saying this, the shirt I'm wearing is not Alex Jones. | ||
It is Bill Hicks, and it was inspired by the conversations we had on this show. | ||
It says we are the imagination of ourselves, and you could get it on thebestpoliticalshirts.com. | ||
Thanks for having me. | ||
Ian Schillen. | ||
What's up, everybody? | ||
Thanks for having me, Tim. | ||
Dude, Sam, what has stand-up life been like since COVID? | ||
I, you know, it's been rough for a lot of people, but I've been blessed. | ||
I'm built for chaos and this is kind of, my shows have been thriving and because once they shut down everything, I started just cranking out show after show and people have been thankful. | ||
So I'm starting to go back on the road. | ||
It's been some, you know, Half rooms. | ||
Sometimes you got to sell your merch outside. | ||
I don't get it. | ||
It's like outdoor eating, outdoor dining versus it's chaos, but it's a blessing. | ||
I mean, the sling dirty jokes to get paid for is great. | ||
Right on. | ||
We also got sock patch lids, pressing all the buttons. | ||
I am in the corner pushing buttons for the guys again. | ||
We're gonna get into this uh twisted story and it's sometimes hard because we do try to keep things fun and light and you know before we even started I'm like should we just talk about the aliens thing because there's this it really is a crazy story the pentagon apparently there's a a document release of it's a freedom of information request that went out and purports There are UFO debris and metamaterials and crazy stuff that some dude, you know, is investigating and they claim to actually have, but they don't say it's from UFOs, but the guy was asking, do you have stuff from UFOs? | ||
So we'll have to read that. | ||

Check out this story from the New York Times. | ||
Let's jump right into it. | ||
New allegations of cover-up by Cuomo over nursing home virus toll. | ||
In a private conversation, the governor's top aide admitted that data was withheld on nursing homes where more than 10,000 New Yorkers have died during the pandemic. | ||
They say the remarks by the top aide, Melissa DeRosa, made in what was supposed to be a private conference call with Democratic lawmakers came as a cascading series of news reports at a court order have left Mr. Cuomo, a third-term Democrat, scrambling to contain the political fallout over his oversight of nursing homes, where more than 13,000 people have died in the pandemic and in the state. | ||
CNN takes it a little bit further, saying New York Governor's top aide admits Administration delayed the release of COVID-19 deaths in long-term care facilities over federal investigation concerns. | ||
You gotta be kidding me. | ||
They thought there was an investigation coming, so they started hiding the fact that Cuomo killed these people? | ||
I've been mad about this for a long time. | ||
And now it's substantially worse. | ||
Because I've been telling people, do you know 6,500 elderly were killed by Cuomo when he put these sick people in these nursing homes? | ||
Then they contracted it and died? | ||
It was actually much more than that. | ||
13,000 people. | ||
Man, this is crazy. | ||
Well, that's the estimate. | ||
Some people say it's even bigger than that. | ||
Some people are estimating it's 15,000 people. | ||
The effects and the ramifications of this are absolutely brutal. | ||
I mean, there's multiple calls for criminal prosecution of Andrew Cuomo immediately. | ||
Jail. | ||
Now. | ||
No questions about it. | ||
Believe it or not, I can jail. | ||
Give him a trial. | ||
Give him a trial. | ||
But right to jail. | ||
Seriously, this is absolutely insane. | ||
There are some actual, I never thought I would say this in my life. | ||
There's some actual Democrats in New York with a spine and they're actually calling for Andrew Cuomo to lose his emergency COVID powers. | ||
That needs to be, that needs to happen immediately. | ||
How about step down? | ||
How about that? | ||
How about not, like, lose your powers? | ||
How about you step down, call it a day? | ||
I mean, once again, theorists are right, right? | ||
Isn't it? | ||
I mean, like, they've said it forever, and here we are, once again, theorists are right. | ||
Well, but this was publicly known. | ||
This is what blows my mind. | ||
ProPublica, not a conservative organization, mind you, ran the story saying 6,500 deaths That one was bad enough. | ||
What was this dude thinking, putting sick people literally next to the most vulnerable? | ||
We've been talking about what we gotta do to open up the economy, and the first thing is protect the vulnerable, the elderly and those who are immunocompromised. | ||
And what does Cuomo do? | ||
unidentified
|
The opposite. | |
The opposite. | ||
He stuffs, what was it, 9,000 people? | ||
Yeah, around 9,000 that we know of for now because there's a massive cover-up here. | ||
As hospitals and field hospitals, the Jacob Javits Center, Central Park, and even huge U.S. | ||
naval ships were ready to take on sick people. | ||
What did he do? | ||
Send them back to nursing homes under his own directive. | ||
The question is why. | ||
Why did this scumbag kill 13,000 people? | ||
And why now are they only calling him out now? | ||
We knew this happened months ago. | ||
So, Luke, you mentioned some Democrats have a spine. | ||
They said nothing for how many months? | ||
Six, seven months? | ||
We've been complaining about it on the show periodically. | ||
We bring it up periodically. | ||
Cuomo killed these people. | ||
And to add insult to injury, Cuomo is literally meeting with Biden now, trying to get federal bailout money for the state, for the mistakes that he made, for the lockdowns that he initiated, and the lives that he ruined in more ways than one. | ||
Meanwhile, what does the Biden administration do? | ||
They passed a bailout bill that's probably going to give them a boatload of money, and they're going after Florida. | ||
Florida, all places that didn't lock down, has no mandates, is actually dealing with this sickness way better than, of course, the New York government. | ||
But now Biden's going to be literally bailing out New York state? | ||
Giving them money for doing this, essentially? | ||
If you had to spitball why he would do this, like, try to come up with a reason, Trump, for the positive... Trump. | ||
Yeah, man. | ||
These deaths were added to the numbers. | ||
New York was brutal in how many? | ||
They were like 35,000 have died so far. | ||
And it seems like a good portion of that was because of Cuomo on purpose. | ||
And I think there's two things here. | ||
If I had to guess, okay, because I don't know for sure. | ||
Why didn't the media go after Cuomo hard? | ||
Why didn't Democrats? | ||
Because it helped them go after Trump. | ||
So they knew he killed these people and said, you just wait till after November. | ||
Why were they taken out of the nursing homes to begin with? | ||
What do you mean? | ||
You said they were sent back to nursing homes. | ||
Well, that means they were sent from the hospital to the nursing home. | ||
So they were sent back to the nursing home. | ||
So they were taken out of the nursing home. | ||
They got diagnosed in the hospital. | ||
They were taken out of the nursing homes because they were sick. | ||
They went to the hospital. | ||
They got diagnosed with COVID. | ||
And then he was like, what are we going to do with them? | ||
Send them back to the nursing home. | ||
Some of the people who got sent were young people. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Yeah, remember the guy that beat that guy up? | ||
There was young people for no reason being put in long-term care facilities with the elderly. | ||
In nursing homes? | ||
Yes. | ||
Wow. | ||
Cuomo killed these people. | ||
Well, you gotta be careful with that accusation. | ||
No, I don't. | ||
What? | ||
He didn't take a knife and cut their throats one by one. | ||
Even CNN is reporting now. | ||
That he's responsible for this. | ||
Okay, he's responsible for the death. | ||
You're the only one defending the guy. | ||
Look, I'm not even defending him. | ||
Yeah, you are. | ||
I'm just saying the way you phrase saying that someone killed someone and saying that someone's responsible for their death is a different thing. | ||
How about a guy who lost his mom? | ||
Who threw a banner down right here who said, Cuomo killed my mom. | ||
Go tell him that Cuomo didn't kill his mom. | ||
Your tax dollars fund the drone bombs. | ||
You didn't kill those people. | ||
Oh, we did. | ||
Yes, we did. | ||
No, you didn't. | ||
Yeah, yes. | ||
Someone did with your money. | ||
Yes, we all contribute to that. | ||
And that's why I complain about it. | ||
But I'm telling you this right now. | ||
When you've got Janice Dean of Fox News saying that Cuomo killed her in-laws when a guy dropped a banner over a highway in New York saying, Cuomo killed my mom. | ||
And they lied about it because they were being federally investigated. | ||
They were scared of a federal investigation, so they covered up the numbers. | ||
Dude, I'm telling you, they put sick people in there. | ||
The opportunity to put them on the ships, that ship that Trump sent in. | ||
Don't want to use that? | ||
Could make Trump look good, huh? | ||
Didn't want to put them in the Javits Center, have the actual capability to save these people. | ||
So put them in nursing homes, let them all die, and then cover up the numbers because you're being investigated. | ||
And now even Democrats are coming after him. | ||
I'm sick to my stomach over this. | ||
Were the ship and the Javits Center, like, less, uh... No, they were the best of the best. | ||
Were they dirty? | ||
The best of the best! | ||
No one used them! | ||
No one was inside of them! | ||
They were empty the whole time! | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah! | |
The military ship is some of the best of the best. | ||
The Javits Center, we can argue, was a field hospital that was set up, and it wasn't the same as a regular hospital. | ||
But to put people in nursing homes made zero sense. | ||
And there was what, you brought that guy who beat that elderly guy. | ||
Yeah, a 25-year-old guy who was recovering from COVID. | ||
He beat up this old dude in a nursing home after he was put in a nursing home for COVID. | ||
And what about the ventilators? | ||
What about the ventilators that he hid and got busted hiding in the warehouse, right? | ||
Yeah! | ||
I mean, Cuomo got all these ventilators and hid them and then went on and started, we need ventilators! | ||
We need them! | ||
And then Trump's like, they're right over here, dude, where you put them? | ||
See, when you said about the drone strikes, Tim didn't order the drone strikes. | ||
Cuomo ordered old people to. | ||
It's a totally different thing. | ||
Our tax dollar go to feeding this whole, this military industrial complex for sure. | ||
But Tim, me, Luke, nobody made a decision. | ||
Hey, let's drone strike this place. | ||
Imagine how psychotic you have to be to do this and then say, I'm going to write a book about how great I did. | ||
And I get a book deal out of it. | ||
I get an Emmy out of this. | ||
I get congratulated by all the mainstream media. | ||
Family friendly show. | ||
I got so many other words I want to use here. | ||
Celebrating him and propping him up as this great leader. | ||
When in reality, he's the complete opposite of that. | ||
It was a part of the criminal coverup. | ||
Take a look at how the media covered this. | ||
From USA Today, fact check. | ||
Does New York have a stockpile of thousands of unneeded ventilators? | ||
What was the accusation against Cuomo? | ||
That we know they need the ventilators, and he was having them stockpiled in a warehouse somewhere. | ||
So USA Today does a fact check where they say, unneeded ventilators. | ||
Nobody said they were unneeded, that we were saying we needed them, deploy them. | ||
I love this. | ||
Here's their verdict. | ||
The verdict is false. | ||
While it's true that New York maintains a stockpile of ventilators not in use, it is incorrect that these machines are unneeded. | ||
The current number of ventilators deployed in the state are not enough to meet the increasing challenge. | ||
Well, maybe if the dude used the ones that he had that were not in use, he could have had enough. | ||
Why didn't he use them? | ||
You know what, man? | ||
It's not a conspiracy, because we know he did it. | ||
The question is why. | ||
We can speculate. | ||
I have no idea. | ||
So was he, like, hiding them to get more? | ||
Well, he got caught. | ||
He was lying, like, we don't have enough ventilators, Trump, you gotta send them. | ||
And then I think it was Trump who said, you have a big stockpile you're not using. | ||
And he was like, well, but, meh. | ||
And then, so the media comes to his defense and says, unneeded ventilators. | ||
No one said there was a stockpile of unneeded ventilators. | ||
They said there were stockpiles of ventilators that we needed. | ||
And they change it. | ||
That's how these fact checks work. | ||
I always talk about this, they'll be like, did Donald Trump have a scoop of ice cream? | ||
With sprinkles. | ||
While it's true that Donald Trump did have ice cream, there were no sprinkles. | ||
Nobody accused him of having sprinkles. | ||
It's like Donald Trump could save a bunch of puppies from a building, and they'll say, did Donald Trump save a bunch of puppies from a burning building? | ||
With gym shoes on? | ||
False. | ||
Big bold letters. | ||
And the bottom will say, he did save the puppies, but he wasn't wearing gym shoes. | ||
Yeah. | ||
That's the manipulation. | ||
That's how they lie. | ||
Does Sanctuary Cities have anything to do with this? | ||
Wasn't there a bunch of funding cut from places that were just taken illegally? | ||
Well, there is one real simple explanation. | ||
I mean, you can get dark with it and say he was willing to kill these people because he hated Trump. | ||
Or it could be New York is facing a massive budget deficit and a massive debt, and they need money from the federal government. | ||
And in order to justify it, they say, oh, no, look at all these people. | ||
Oh, geez, feds, you better give us money. | ||
We need the ventilators! | ||
We need them! | ||
Why? | ||
You got a big warehouse full of them. | ||
Use the ones you have. | ||
Almost everything the New York government did when it came to COVID has backfired against the people. | ||
unidentified
|
Whether it's from the very beginning... Come on, Fauci said they did it right, dude. | |
He did. | ||
Fauci did congratulate them and said that they did a great job. | ||
But from the very beginning they were telling you, Don't be racist. | ||
Go out to the Chinese parade. | ||
Go out. | ||
It's going to be great. | ||
A Chinese person. | ||
Pelosi did it in San Francisco. | ||
Come on down to Chinatown. | ||
So when you look at the leadership here, it failed at every single level. | ||
And who paid the ultimate price? | ||
The citizenry, who are being brainwashed by the mainstream media to try to worship these individuals. | ||
You shouldn't worship these people. | ||
These are criminals, top level notch gangsters that, of course, don't give a damn about you, never gave a damn about you. | ||
And the sooner you realize that, the better your life will be. | ||
They do, though. | ||
I will say I can't stand the Cuomo brothers personally from the outside. | ||
I find that they're riding the coattails of their daddy's last name and that they're incompetent, annoying, ugly dudes. | ||
Personally, if I met him in person, maybe I would like him one on one. | ||
And maybe they are mafia. | ||
Like, I don't know. | ||
That's like some New York government has had notorious been for like hand in hand with the mob. | ||
What's the difference between the mob and the government? | ||
Yeah. | ||
What's the difference here? | ||
Paperwork. | ||
Yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
Good point. | ||
Well, you remember he was like comparing himself. | ||
He was talking about how him and Fauci are like Robert De Niro and, and what's his face from all those mob movies. | ||
So yeah, he totally has that mentality. | ||
It's super powerful. | ||
Can I remind everybody what the Cuomo brothers were doing while Andrew was killing people? | ||
Here's from CNN.com. | ||
Chris Cuomo teases brother Andrew with giant test swab. | ||
And then you've got Chris Cuomo being like, hey, Andrew, you got a big nose. | ||
Look at this big Q-tip. | ||
You gotta stick it in your nose. | ||
And everyone's laughing. | ||
As his brother was lying about the quarantine, being sick, running around town, being caught for it, faking his own kind of release from quarantine when he was caught outside when he was confirmed to be sick. | ||
These brothers are psychopathic. | ||
They're insane. | ||
From their own cognitive decisions, they knew that if they got someone else sick, they could kill them. | ||
They still went outside. | ||
Chris Cuomo and CNN as a whole pretended that he was quarantined. | ||
You saw this story? | ||
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
And then he got caught because he was screaming at some dude on a bike 30 minutes from his house because he owned some other property. | ||
And the guy sees him and is like, aren't you supposed to be quarantined? | ||
He's like, don't you come here, tell me what to do. | ||
Then Chris Cuomo admits it all on his radio show by attacking the guy. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
He went after the guy. | ||
I don't need somebody coming up to me telling me what I can do. | ||
And then everyone's like, even Ben Smith at the New York Times said it's crazy how CNN is like, you know, basically lying about this. | ||
And then later they had this video where Chris comes out of the basement like, I'm not sick anymore. | ||
I'm out of quarantine. | ||
And we're all like, dude, we know you brought quarantine. | ||
And his kids were just sitting there like, my dad is such a fake. | ||
Dude, if you watch his son's face while he's talking in that video, it's so sad. | ||
That kid's like, oh my god. | ||
Yeah, and then eventually they get traumatized and then they're in the whole system too. | ||
It's like Governor Newsom's the exact same thing. | ||
Quarantine locking everybody down, then his winery's open, he's at some Meanwhile, suicides of children in California skyrocketing. | ||
no masks on. It's rules for thee and not for me. That is what it's. This is basically in | ||
my humble opinion is an elite purge. They're doing whatever they want, not following the | ||
laws and nobody's enforcing the laws. And that's the biggest problem. Meanwhile, meanwhile, | ||
suicides of children in California, this is what people don't get in the purge. | ||
The elites are safe and protected while the poor people are killing themselves. | ||
They're not going to just come out and be like, everybody commit crimes. | ||
They're going to be like, we destroy your business. | ||
Then we mass print money that goes right into our pockets from you. | ||
And how many, how much have people gotten? | ||
They got like 600 bucks. | ||
They got 600 bucks. | ||
Congratulations. | ||
Your entire life was destroyed. | ||
Cuomo literally killed people and they laugh about it. | ||
And then they get richer. | ||
The big box stores, the big corporations get all of that stimulus money funneled right in their pockets because everything else is closed. | ||
You're right, it's the purge. | ||
They're just doing it in a way because they don't want, like in reality the purge wouldn't work because people could still commit crimes after the fact. | ||
So here's the thing about the purge, right? | ||
This movie, you guys know what I'm talking about. | ||
For those that are listening, one day a year, you can do whatever you want, basically. | ||
And the idea is the rich people and the elites don't gotta worry about anything because they're so powerful and they have security, but people still commit crimes, right? | ||
So even if we had one day a year that was the purge where you could get away with it, some people still wouldn't care to get away with it because some people still commit crimes. | ||
So imagine this. | ||
You have a bunch of elites who get everybody killed. | ||
The next day, people aren't gonna care about the law. | ||
They're gonna be angry. | ||
Well, this is the way they do it without actually getting anyone to point the finger at them. | ||
I mean, if you take a look at what was going on in all these cities, there was burning. | ||
These kids would commit crimes. | ||
We're finding these kids are the children of the elite. | ||
They go down and they burn down a middle class business and then the DA would just release them. | ||
Yeah, just release them. | ||
It is literally the purge. | ||
It was rich kid purge. | ||
And when Malcolm X and the Unabomber both say, White rich liberals are the most dangerous thing out there. | ||
That's what you're, this is exactly what they're talking about. | ||
And if you want to go even deeper, you look at so many of these, these, these, uh, cultural icons and how many of them are just rich kids that just got, Never got life messed out of them, you know? | ||
Like, did have to go through it to kill idealism. | ||
And they just got in these positions, all their friends are rich, in powerful positions, and their message just spread. | ||
And that's what 2020 was. | ||
Antifa was all that. | ||
Just rich kids. | ||
I mean, my own studio in L.A. | ||
I had friends of mine bragging about being in these riots that they burned and broke down businesses all around my studio. | ||
And I'm like, dude, I was right there. | ||
All my, all my hard work was right there. | ||
If you would have busted in there, you would have destroyed all my dreams. | ||
And you don't care because you didn't care about black lives. | ||
You just want to go out and have fun. | ||
And that's exactly what's happened. | ||
Well, they were locked in. | ||
They had no other release valve. | ||
So when they took away the sports, they took away the entertainment, they locked them in. | ||
I mean, COVID was pretty much the year that a lot of people realized that the rich play out by a different set of rules. | ||
And hold on, two more points. | ||
unidentified
|
The latest news today is also that Australia... I don't want to get off this point. | |
That's the purge. | ||
That riot was the purge. | ||
They let them do it. | ||
They let everyone run around for weeks, smashing and destroying all across this country. | ||
They literally had a purge. | ||
Not all across, in middle class and poor class, because when they tried to go into Beverly Hills, they shut that down real quick. | ||
Not the rich people! | ||
You see that guy who was tweeting about cheering on the riots? | ||
And then all of a sudden he was like, oh no, now they're by my house! | ||
Stop! | ||
Go somewhere else! | ||
COVID proved this is an existence controlled by the rich that have a different set of rules. | ||
As of today, we also got the information that Australia just extended their lockdown for five days. | ||
And Canada is now requesting that if you want to come into their country you have to pay $2,000 for hotel stay and test to again quarantine. | ||
We were talking about this yesterday specifically with the United Kingdom now demanding that if you want to enter the United Kingdom you have to pay $2,400. | ||
So this is pretty much only going to allow rich people to travel because who could afford paying $2,000 to go to Canada to quarantine for a week? | ||
Has Australia done it yet? | ||
Australia has pretty much banned most travel. | ||
I forgot the latest updates. | ||
We could probably pull it up, but not a lot of people are allowed to even enter or even leave Australia. | ||
Yeah, Contis said you got to get your test or whatever to prove, you know, you're not sick or whatever. | ||
You want to fly. | ||
Well, that's what happens in the United States now. | ||
If you want to enter the United States, you have to have a test unless you're going through the border illegally. | ||
And I mean, take a look at what's going on. | ||
This is all about getting us used to the basically social credit score. | ||
If you look at the NBA, they're doing this contact tracing thing. | ||
I mean, huge names, guys, test positive. | ||
They're like, oh, you were near somebody. | ||
They did it with Kevin Durant. | ||
He was right about the play and they pulled him and he can't play for games. | ||
That's setting the precedence, trying to get us all okay with that. | ||
Hey man, you were hanging out with somebody that we don't like. | ||
Go home and hang out. | ||
That's what this This is all about New York proposed that bill. | ||
I don't know where it's at right now. | ||
I think it was in committee last time where they were gonna set up detention centers or facilities for those who are suspected of having contact with people who may be a danger to public health. | ||
I got something for you, man. | ||
There is a video of Governor Newsom talking about, you know, how he's going to deal with the homeless, and he's working with FEMA. | ||
And I'm telling you this, as much as you see the homeless around there, there's certain places where I gotta drive to work or drive to go see my kids, and you'll see these giant homeless encampments. | ||
And then one day, you won't see hardly any homeless there, but the encampments there. | ||
Then the next day you go by, The catmint's gone. | ||
And you're like, where did all this go? | ||
And I'm telling you, this is how they did it. | ||
Are they rounding them up? | ||
At 4am. | ||
Well, so there's a city in Northern California that does this. | ||
They take homeless people, and then they declare themselves conservators of the individual's finances, and they lock the homeless person up, and then say, until you can prove you can handle money, you're locked up. | ||
In San Francisco, they'll come at 4am with fire hoses. | ||
That's what I think is going on, man. | ||
I know people can call me crazy, but I'm like, where is all these people? | ||
It was a giant cat man. | ||
Now it's gone. | ||
Where'd they go? | ||
And you don't see it come back. | ||
And it's just like, well, the, uh, what, what, what, what did New York do? | ||
It was like New York in the eighties. | ||
Was it Giuliani? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Put all the, put all the homeless people on a bus and then shipped them off to different cities. | ||
That's what happens at LA too. | ||
They ship Oregon, Washington, and all these other states send their homeless to us. | ||
Well, they're going to send the homeless people to very lefty states and cities that pay for it, and the people who live there are the ones who reap the benefits of those policies. | ||
I think that was called repopulation. | ||
It was like an ancient punishment for criminals. | ||
You just repopulate them by moving them to a different country or place. | ||
They put people in Australia? | ||
Yeah, that's just the whole state, country. | ||
Technically, it's illegal to loiter, so maybe that's what they're doing. | ||
They're like, this is your punishment. | ||
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
Have you guys been following impeachment at all? | ||
unidentified
|
Sadly. | |
Yeah, I saw a bunch of stuff today that I thought was some really great videos that Trump pushes back on. | ||
There's some big stuff. So I don't care about impeachment, to be completely honest. | ||
But I do care about culture war stuff. | ||
So in the impeachment today, Trump's lawyers finally started snapping back in a very powerful way. | ||
And the reason this I care about, I think the impeachment stuff is a foregone conclusion. | ||
It's a waste of time. | ||
He's not going to be convicted. | ||
I mean, maybe, sure, but I just doubt it. | ||
But there was a few instances. | ||
One, Trump's lawyers brought up Kamala Harris fundraising for these rioters and advocating for violence and riots and protest. | ||
And then the impeachment manager's guy Raskin, he's like, I don't seem to recall Kamala Harris ever saying these things. | ||
Dude walks back up from Trump's side and he goes, we played the video here three times. | ||
What do you mean? | ||
Then they showed these videos of all the Democrats calling for all this craziness. | ||
They show all the videos of the riots. | ||
And it was like, I hope regular Americans saw all that. | ||
That was the opportunity the first time to point out the Democrats are doing. | ||
And that's it. | ||
There's no real trial here, right? | ||
The impeachment isn't actually due process. | ||
So it's stupid to come out and try and treat it like an actual court case. | ||
unidentified
|
100%. | |
It's an optics propaganda war. | ||
Oh, I mean, like, look at it with the, uh, Capitol thing, whether you think that's real or fake or whatever that is. | ||
I mean, you had all these people in Hollywood going nuts. | ||
I can't believe that you can't do that to the Capitol. | ||
And these are the same people that were like match, match, match to all these Antifa people getting arrested for writing and burning down poor people and middle-class people's businesses. | ||
It's the exact same thing. | ||
Yep, that's impeachment. | ||
No, but it did feel good, because I've been avoiding the impeachment stuff, just because it's so boring and pointless. | ||
It is pointless. | ||
But in the beginning, Trump's lawyers were doing pretty bad. | ||
And now I'm seeing these videos pop up where I'm like, hey, this is pretty good. | ||
Because the Democrats don't have answers for this, how they've supported the violence for this long. | ||
But it does go hand in hand with what we're seeing about Cuomo, I think. | ||
For one, the riots were basically them letting the purge happen, destroy the small businesses, | ||
wipe out the middle class and the working class property and ownership so they have nothing. | ||
Then they print all this money, give it to you, only a little bit, but then everybody spends it | ||
at the big box stores that are allowed to stay open and they are just siphoning away the assets. | ||
It's really funny, this whole thing, everything that's happened, the lockdowns, the rioting, | ||
it really helps the Great Reset. You know the Great Reset? | ||
100%. | ||
They said at first in but in 2030, you'll own nothing and you'll be happy | ||
Well, one way to get people to own nothing is to lock down their businesses by force, and then when their businesses can survive, here's the crazy thing about it, right? | ||
If you own a restaurant, you're struggling because your food went bad. | ||
So there were some restaurants where they were like, we got shut down for a month, $30,000 worth of food, spoiled and garbage. | ||
If we want to reopen, we got to spend 30 grand. | ||
What about a hard goods store? | ||
Maybe you sell skateboards or t-shirts. | ||
You're fine. | ||
You got rent to worry about, and your personal expenses, but you can survive longer. | ||
Well, surprise surprise, the riots shut up, smashed out your windows, stole all your stuff. | ||
Now your business is gone too. | ||
How convenient. | ||
Now you own nothing. | ||
The best part is, the government won't even give you a little bit for food. | ||
They're just leaving you hanging. | ||
I don't know what these politicians expect to happen, but it's almost like their support of this Was meant to antagonize people, particularly Trump supporters or those who don't like the riots. | ||
The far left, they seem to have been happy with it and the Democrat establishment, you know, cronies were happy with it. | ||
Now you get this impeachment that's meant to be, I guess, insult to injury. | ||
The guy's not even president anymore. | ||
It seems like everything they're doing is designed to antagonize And just make people snap and go nuts. | ||
Yeah, I was thinking about this metaphor where you back a dog into a corner and you poke it with a stick until it | ||
lashes out and bites you and then you blame the dog for biting you and have it put to sleep. | ||
And like, these people are watching it happen and because it's a Trump supporter in the corner that's getting prodded | ||
or whoever, and I'm not saying it's happening, but this is like, what I keep thinking, they're okay with it. | ||
They're like, yeah, he's getting abused. Oh, he lashed out. | ||
It's all coming. | ||
It is happening. | ||
The issue is, we're not saying it's a conspiracy or intentional. | ||
We're saying, whatever the reason is, what's been happening over the past year is essentially Democrats pushing people into a corner and just whacking them with a stick over and over again. | ||
So it doesn't matter if their intention was to do that. | ||
That's literally what's happening. | ||
And don't get me wrong, Republicans are not getting a free pass on this one. | ||
Oh yeah, for sure. | ||
Trump was the one who was like, $2,000 for everybody. | ||
And it was McConnell who was like, no. | ||
Well yeah. | ||
Well, I mean, like, here's the whole thing. | ||
Like, a lot of people think this reset is about money and it's about power. | ||
The people doing this have more money to ever spend in a billion lifetimes and more power than ever. | ||
This is a spiritual thing. | ||
This is a spiritual war. | ||
It's a spiritual attack. | ||
It's about stealing your loosh, your energy, getting you so depressed. | ||
And like, you know, people are talking about the, I hear it's about to get weird, but people are talking about the age of Aquarius and it's enlightening. | ||
And then they're talking about, hey man, You know, transhumanism. | ||
It's all about this realm that we live in and trapping us here and just low frequency stuff. | ||
Bill Gates has more money and power than he'll ever have for a thousand lifetimes. | ||
He's all about your energy and trapping you here and that's what this is all about. | ||
Crush your soul, crush your happiness, make you miserable so they feed off that. | ||
Well, a lot of people say the Great Reset will happen. | ||
Well, people need to understand the Great Reset is happening. | ||
2020 was not just a slap in the face but a low blow to all the American people paying attention especially all the American taxpayers and small business owners that have been ridiculed destroyed and just made to look like utter fools and it was absolutely sickening to see police officers and there's some surveillance camera footage that that has gone viral Yes! | ||
in 2020 that shows police officers walking in and just ... | ||
finding penalizing and destroying the livelihoods of ... | ||
small mom-and-pop shops as people are allowed to coalesce ... | ||
in Walmart they're allowed to be in Target they were allowed ... | ||
to be in Best Buy but if you had a small business but ... | ||
Jack boot officer would show up at your door sometimes ... | ||
break down your business door and say that's it I'm taking ... | ||
everything for you because my master Mr. Como Mr. ... | ||
Newsome told me to do so and I as the raveling dog will do ... | ||
as the raveling dog will do as I'm told and I will bite you and take away your food. | ||
But listen, it's simple, it's simple. | ||
We've brought this up many times. | ||
You're a cop, you're making 30, 40k a year, not a lot of money for these lower-level guys, entry-level officers. | ||
And you're looking at the devastation caused by the lockdowns. | ||
You're seeing the guy in the shop begging, please don't do this to me man. | ||
I can barely feed my family. | ||
Don't give me that fine. | ||
And that cop's going, glad it's not me. | ||
I'm getting my paycheck. | ||
I'm with you on that. | ||
I'm with you, but still. | ||
It's basically, there's no rule of law anymore, man. | ||
I mean, I know some people don't like that one letter, the 17th letter, whatever, and they all thought it was just to pacify people. | ||
I just don't know what people else they were supposed to do. | ||
I mean, they pulled out their attention, they pulled out their money, cabled the two-party system, It's just that, but we have no rule of law. | ||
The people who are there to take the oath to defend the Constitution are not doing it on a local, a state, a federal, and an international level. | ||
Our military and our law enforcement are not enforcing the laws. | ||
What else can we do? | ||
They're enforcing the edict. | ||
Well, this is the thing, Tim. | ||
During the Nuremberg trials, following the rules, obeying your orders wasn't an excuse. | ||
It didn't matter. | ||
People were penalized and punished because they did what they were told. | ||
And just because someone tells you to do it, just because you don't want to do it, you don't understand. | ||
You're part of the larger system here, the larger problem that is perpetrating it and allowing it to get this bad. | ||
And it wouldn't be if you just simply questioned and actually did your job that you're supposed to do under the letters of the law. | ||
There's no simple Go to Walmart. | ||
Go to Costco. | ||
Go to Best Buy. | ||
Show up to the Amazon warehouse then. | ||
being told there's a pandemic. People are dying. This is how we save their lives. We | ||
have no choice. Go to Walmart. It's not the same. Go to Costco. Listen, go to Best Buy. | ||
Amazon's open. Yeah. They're Amazon Fresh. Show up to the Amazon warehouse then. Don't | ||
show up to the mom and pop shop. I'm in L.A. | ||
on Lancashire, there's a billboard that says, Amazon Fresh, along the lines of this. | ||
Amazon Fresh, wide open, come in. | ||
And as you go down Lancashire, every small business is closed. | ||
This has been done purposefully, man. | ||
And listen, when authority comes across a resistance, it comes in the form of riot police. | ||
Every time, everywhere. | ||
The difference between here and these third world countries is they've seen a lot, and the margins of going completely and utterly broke is so much thinner. | ||
We have it good here. | ||
A lot of people don't want to rock the boat, but guess what? | ||
They're just going to keep taking a little bit more. | ||
unidentified
|
This is what I'm saying. | |
It's dominoes falling over. | ||
There's no easy way because it's all about confidence in authority. | ||
The Constitution is meaningless. | ||
The laws are meaningless. | ||
If Cuomo ordered the cops to do something illegal, they would just do it. | ||
Right. | ||
No, no, no, don't get me wrong. | ||
A lot of them have quit. | ||
Absolutely. | ||
A lot of cops around the country have quit, and they're now being replaced by essentially scabs, people who are willing to work in violation of the law just because the executive said to do it. | ||
There's got to be something going on behind the scenes because this Great Reset is not an American thing. | ||
It's like a globe. | ||
Klaus Schwab is, I don't know where he's from. | ||
Could you have any more evil name than Klaus Schwab? | ||
So I think you're spot on with it being a war for your spirit. | ||
I don't know if they're behind the scenes bending U.S. | ||
law and just like, you know what, we're just going to go past it. | ||
Let's make whatever pandemic so we can suspend habeas corpus. | ||
Have you seen Bill Gates' patent 060606? | ||
They want to put things in your body to track your bio. | ||
We've already gone over this. | ||
Maybe they don't want to implant, but it's a real patent. | ||
It's a patent for a wearable. | ||
They want to measure your bioactivity and then pay you crypto. | ||
So they can see if you're watching a cartoon, they'll pay you for that. | ||
If you watch that cartoon, if you watch that commercial, you'll get paid for that. | ||
They want to maybe eventually put your body in a pod and give you money for the heat. | ||
We're already in pods. | ||
The Matrix Body Heat thing made no sense on purpose. | ||
But they want to pay you for your biometrics. | ||
It's very similar to the Matrix Body Heat thing. | ||
What the 666 patent is about is that they want you to take physical activities in exchange for crypto. | ||
Basically what's happening is, it's an authoritarian attempt at making people, we talked about this, basically get back to nature. | ||
Be more, you know, sleeping in the flowers in the fields. | ||
Or pay you for watching cartoons. | ||
Stop gargling bacon for breakfast. | ||
They can pay you for watching commercials. | ||
I think they think there's too many people and they want to start controlling people. | ||
He talks about it. | ||
His father was a eugenics. | ||
This is a fact. | ||
His father was a eugenics. His father helped... | ||
Eugenicist. Eugenicist. | ||
Talking about Bill Gates specifically. | ||
Yes. | ||
He had many ties to... | ||
Well, this is another thing. | ||
I think they're really trying to make the world like China. | ||
I don't think it's over consumption, but I think it's seeing how China runs their kind of | ||
government, runs their... | ||
there are people and and trying to exemplify because if you look at even | ||
davos which is hosted by the world economic forum their first speaker this | ||
year was of course the president of china and clouses there all mister on their balls | ||
you'll do so good to work i love you all like growling was a little over him | ||
He got the first say during the World Economic Forum today, and he's like, this is great. | ||
We need more economic governance. | ||
We need more economic cooperation worldwide. | ||
And this is exactly what's happening here, especially with corporations like Disney and others, the Rothschilds, the Pope. | ||
I sound like I'm talking hyperbolic stuff, but look up the Rothschilds-Pope Alliance. | ||
They're the ones bringing all the major corporations into pushing for the Great Reset. | ||
Operation Gelato, I think it's called? | ||
Well, no, no, no, no. | ||
There was even a mainstream media article, we could probably pull it up, talking about how, you know, the Rothschilds were specifically bringing together a lot of top banks on Wall Street, a lot of major corporations, a lot of big pharma organizations to push for this global reset, which is a great idea. | ||
I shared the article with you as well, Tim, when we talked about it on the show. | ||
Mainstream media news articles were talking about this. | ||
The issue is this. | ||
Communism had a lot of power. | ||
The Soviet Union killed a lot of people. | ||
These communist nations killed a lot of people. | ||
Mountains of skulls. | ||
Who was talking about that? | ||
Was it Matt Brainerd in Cambodia? | ||
Yeah, Cambodia. | ||
And so the problem was America. | ||
Freedom, Constitution, Liberty, 1st, 2nd Amendment, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, you get the point. | ||
So, if you want to have communism, the authoritarians can do it. | ||
They can suppress and oppress and kill hundreds of millions of people. | ||
The problem is, so long as those people know freedom exists, they will do everything in their power to jump over that wall to find freedom. | ||
And communism, monarchy also is a big problem. | ||
Well, so with authoritarianism, you had, when they were building the Anti-Fascist Protection Rampart in Germany, you know what that is, right? | ||
The Berlin Wall. | ||
It was called the Anti-Fascist Protection Rampart. | ||
You had people fleeing their homes full speed to cross before the wall got built because they knew what was coming. | ||
When the wall was built, I think the first person who died was this young guy who tried jumping the wall and they killed him. | ||
They didn't want their subjects, the slaves of the Communist Union, to escape because they needed people to work as effectively slaves. | ||
Once the people knew that freedom was just on the other side, they would risk their lives to get it. | ||
So these people, the authoritarian wingnuts like the Chinese Communist Party, know the only thing standing in their way from implementing total global authoritarianism is a country like America, with a constitution, with freedom, with the Bill of Rights. | ||
So you have to destroy it and erode it from within. | ||
Once America is gone, there will be no land of the free. | ||
There will be no idea of freedom, and there will be nowhere to run. | ||
There won't be a wall you can jump over. | ||
No matter where you go, you do as you're told, or you get the worst of it. | ||
That's where we're heading towards. | ||
I know a lot of people on the left might say, oh, you're being hyperbolic. | ||
I don't care. | ||
You're not paying attention. | ||
You look at what's going on with the government literally shutting everything down without any scientific evidence, being wrong every step of the way, and destroying the lives of people every single day. | ||
At a certain point, you have to ask yourself why they're doing it. | ||
I really want to bring this up too, especially along with China. | ||
We also found out today that they blocked the World Health Organization from accessing critical data to find out where this sickness came from. | ||
They actually blocked Information going around from the first people that got sick and we're living in a government right now that's acquiescing to China in a way where Joe Biden signs an executive order saying you could no longer say the China virus as he's talking about the UK variant on stop. | ||
So there's a double standard here. | ||
There's obviously something going on here that doesn't add up, doesn't make sense, and for the World Health Organization to puppeteer the official lines of Beijing after only spending three hours in that laboratory in Wuhan, after not getting the critical data to even assess how this started, is absolutely sickening. | ||
Listen, it all goes back to that. | ||
Nobody knows history. | ||
Nobody studies history. | ||
The fact that BLM was started by black, lesbian Marxists means that I don't know how you can be a Marxist and be those two things. | ||
unidentified
|
Because if you study communism, the first thing that happens pretty like he was, he was like anti LGBTQ. | |
China, look at Russia. | ||
Dude, the first thing communism does is it pushes to the margins. | ||
unidentified
|
Hold on, hold on. | |
It's authoritarianism. | ||
Because fascists did the same thing. | ||
Both extremist ideologies that were taking over Europe wanted very similar things, and the only real difference in my opinion was the words they used to describe themselves. | ||
But if you look at China, you look at Russia, which is communism, they marginalize women, Ethnic minorities and gays. | ||
It happens. | ||
Dude, I was supposed to do stand-up. | ||
This is about 10 years ago in China. | ||
And I gotta be honest with you, man. | ||
When you go around China, the people are nice. | ||
It's always the governments, man. | ||
It's always the governments. | ||
And I was supposed to do stand-up at this Hard Rock. | ||
And they told me two weeks before they were supposed to have the first ever national Mr. Gay Chinese. | ||
Look at what's going on. | ||
We talked about this a couple days ago. | ||
In the United States, they're saying, you know, masculinity is bad. | ||
We do these Gillette commercials where they say toxic masculinity, all that stuff. | ||
In China, they're doing the opposite. | ||
In China, they're training young men to be more masculine. | ||
This is a big thing they're working on. | ||
Yeah, this is what really gets me is seeing people wear Che Guevara shirts, because there's many reports, many accounts of him being a racist, homophobe, mass murderer, and specifically being specifically cruel to individuals of color and individuals who were gay. | ||
It's because he's beautiful, dude. | ||
People are obsessed with charisma. | ||
He was charismatic and beautiful, so people didn't mind that he was well-liked. | ||
He was young, he was smart, and he had a beautiful smile. | ||
He would blow people's brains out for fun. | ||
He was a nut job. | ||
But people wear his shirt because he's an attractive guy. | ||
It's psychotic. | ||
I mean, like, they walk around crying about Nazis with NASA t-shirts on. | ||
I mean, they have no clue of history. | ||
Operation Project Paperclip. | ||
Yeah, they have no clue. | ||
We just talked about it. | ||
The Japanese unit that we took all their data. | ||
unidentified
|
731. | |
Well, let's do this. | ||
Let's jump to the next big story that we saw today that we got to talk about. | ||
And I think this fits in a lot of what we're saying. | ||
This is from Deadline. | ||
Gina Carano hits back, announces new movie project with Ben Shapiro's The Daily Wire. | ||
They can't cancel us if we don't let them. | ||
You know why they canceled her? | ||
And this plays in a lot of what we're saying, because she's defiant, and because she was getting famous. | ||
So, I don't want to name any of these celebrities in the past, but if I were to tell you that there were outspoken celebrities defying the war machine in decades past, you know? | ||
You understand, the war machine hated that. | ||
They hated the fact that celebrities rose to power, whether they're rock stars or movie stars or whatever, and then used that activism to defy their plans. | ||
You end up now with, in many instances, you have the celebrities just towing the line of the establishment elites and playing along. | ||
It's very, very smart. | ||
Make sure the celebrities in Hollywood and the music industry can only agree with the authoritarianism. | ||
Otherwise, you'll get people rising up defying you, and then you got a real problem because these are charismatic people when they become famous, right? | ||
One of the reasons they become famous. | ||
Gina Carano was speaking out saying, don't demonize your neighbor. | ||
She was speaking out saying, don't bully people, you can't tell me what to do. | ||
That's defiance. | ||
They had to say, you're out. | ||
See, they don't have to arrest you or lock you up. | ||
They're using economic power. | ||
They'll threaten to take your job away, your comfort, your livelihood. | ||
And it works. | ||
The problem now, I'm really interested to see how this plays out, because The Daily Wire has a movie division now. | ||
They did the movie Ron Hyde Fight, and they immediately, I guess, hit up Gina, and they've announced they're doing a movie together. | ||
So, Gina Carano said, The Daily Wire is helping make one of my dreams to develop and produce my own film come true. | ||
I cried out and my prayer was answered. | ||
I am sending out a direct message of hope to everyone living in fear of cancellation by the totalitarian mob. | ||
I have only just begun using my voice, which is now freer than ever before, and I hope it inspires others to do the same that can't cancel us if we don't let them. | ||
You know what's fascinating about this? | ||
The other day we were talking, Luke, and I think you were saying she's probably, you know, going through a lot with being cancelled, booted off UTA, I actually was like, I don't know, she seems really tough, you know, MMA fighter. | ||
She was probably more angry and agitated, like, oh, what am I, I'm gonna fight, we're gonna do this. | ||
Turns out she's behind the scenes planning her next major move, which only escalated her stardom. | ||
Even more famous. | ||
She also tweeted out today, quote, this is just the beginning. | ||
Welcome to the rebellion. | ||
unidentified
|
Yes! | |
Awesome energy, awesome vibe. | ||
There's some other things happening behind the scenes I don't want to mention, but a great person and that's the spirit you need to have because if you have the spirit of, I'm so sorry, why'd that? | ||
No, please let me have my job back. | ||
You're utterly destroyed and you let them win. | ||
You let them have your power. | ||
Don't let them have your power and you could come out on top of this. | ||
I have the perfect analogy. | ||
I have the perfect analogy. | ||
See, you've got some celebrities, and after the Emperor declares unlimited power and blasts Mace Windu out the window, they drop to their knees in front of the woke mob and go, I will do anything you say. | ||
Losers. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I mean, I just, you know, watching Revenge of the Sith, you've all seen it? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Because Gina Carano's in Star Wars, you know, we've got to do Star Wars reference. | ||
I love the Mandalorian. | ||
I just watch Revenge of the Sith, and I just want a scene where Anakin just kills the Emperor. | ||
Just finishes him off. | ||
We should remake it. | ||
When he drops to his knees and says, I'll do whatever you say, I'm like, oh, it's so pathetic! | ||
But it's the movie, right? | ||
I'd love for him to just be like, you know, Mace is fighting the Emperor, and then he, and then, I imagine this. | ||
I finally got that scene. | ||
I always wanted to see Anakin say no to the Empire. | ||
To the Emperor. | ||
To the Empire. | ||
Gina Carano on Star Wars, working for Disney, Literally like the empire of media and they declared unlimited power do as you're told and she said no I will not do whatever you say and left. | ||
Awesome man. | ||
This is the crazy part because the spin by the mainstream media is very interesting. | ||
There was an article by the Independent that was titled Gina Carano's Mandalorian exit Proves cancel culture doesn't exist despite what her fans say. | ||
I had to double click this because I saw a screenshot. | ||
I was like, no way, this can't be real. | ||
This is someone just goofing. | ||
I literally had to put in that title just to see it, to believe it. | ||
They have this article talking about how there is no cancel culture. | ||
It doesn't exist. | ||
Two plus two equals five. | ||
Just keep doing what you're told. | ||
Absolutely crazy. | ||
I met Gina Carano about 13 years ago at a show on Spike TV with her then boyfriend, Kit Cope, and she was the nicest person. | ||
She was so nice, and she's always succeeded at everything she's done, so I don't know why this would be any different. | ||
And, you know, Disney has its own dark history, so for them to judge anybody on any of that... And, you know, when you discuss the Holocaust, it's a very delicate situation. | ||
We all have Jewish friends, and it's very sensitive. | ||
And you have to respect that for sure. | ||
But it's like, if we don't understand history, we're doomed to repeat it. | ||
She said, don't demonize your neighbor. | ||
It didn't say Republican. | ||
It didn't say Democrat. | ||
It said, don't demonize your neighbor. | ||
I have a family that died in the camps. | ||
She gets a pass. | ||
Everyone gets a pass. | ||
You get a pass. | ||
It doesn't matter. | ||
We shouldn't be scared to talk about history. | ||
You should be able to talk about it. | ||
This is a one-way river. | ||
This water flows in one direction. | ||
Check out this story from the San Francisco Chronicle. | ||
A Black Lives Matter mask shut down The Girl and The Fig. | ||
It's a restaurant. | ||
It's a wine, uh, restaurant, I believe. | ||
Showing the high stakes for restaurants that stand on the sidelines. | ||
The famed wine country restaurant said a BLM mask violated its uniform policy. | ||
But for a younger generation, disengaging is no longer acceptable. | ||
What is that? | ||
What is this? | ||
If you are an employee at Taco Bell, because this happened, and you're wearing a Black Lives Matter mask in violation of company policy, and they try to fire you for your politics, the woke mob attacks the business, and the business hires them back. | ||
In this instance, we have this wine country restaurant. | ||
Woman wanted to wear a mask, I guess, or employee wanted to wear a mask. | ||
They said no, so the woke mob goes after the business. | ||
It's always in the direction of the cult. | ||
If their cult is winning, that's all that matters. | ||
Gina Carano was defiant. | ||
She resisted, so they get rid of her. | ||
These restaurants, the business itself, was resisting the cult, so they go for the business. | ||
It doesn't matter. | ||
It goes in one direction. | ||
You must support the cult, period. | ||
Otherwise, they'll destroy you. | ||
But I tell you this, all of the cowards who refuse to speak up, Well, when they come for you, you will regret it. | ||
Because you have your chance now to speak up and be defiant. | ||
And I love what The Daily Wire is doing, by the way, because this is how you win. | ||
Building culture. | ||
Make movies! | ||
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
Make movies. | ||
Inspire people. | ||
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
Make cool stuff. | ||
Build your own website. | ||
But if you do nothing... So this is what... I was talking to a bunch of friends of mine recently, in the past day or so, because of what happened. | ||
And a lot of them are telling me, like, dude, I wish I could, you know, do something and speak out, but I'll get fired. | ||
And I'm like, bro, don't say anything political. | ||
Just make something cool and inspire people to hang out with you, and then they will be surrounded by free, loving individuals. | ||
That's what you need to do. | ||
So make movies! | ||
Hire Gina Carano! | ||
Do a new series! | ||
Well, another thing people really need to realize is that they're gonna come for you, whether you like it or not, for just maybe even your thoughts in the future. | ||
As we found out today from even Instagram, as they announced that they are going to start banning people for what they say in private DMs. | ||
Your private messages are now being snooped through, being scanned by Instagram, and if there's any, quote, hate speech in there, they will ban you for even things you don't publicly publish. | ||
They've been scanning your messages for ages. | ||
I want to go back through your history and find stuff now. | ||
Retroactive enforcement, they've done that too. | ||
YouTube did it. | ||
Yeah, YouTube did it to me. | ||
I got banned for a video like that. | ||
I was almost three or four years old. | ||
Two times they've done that to me. | ||
They've taken me out. | ||
You know, here's the thing, dude. | ||
You have to understand. | ||
It's like, what is the platform? | ||
What are their rules? | ||
Either you play by their rules or you get off. | ||
And like, people think that's like... | ||
It's like people from like 2000s. | ||
We all had our own websites. | ||
That's where it's going. | ||
GeoCities, bro. | ||
Remember GeoCities in the 90s? | ||
You went on, you signed up, you had your own website. | ||
People would just build their own thing. | ||
And if you were like, how did you find someone's content information? | ||
Well, you get a business card with their website on it. | ||
Then social media was invented. | ||
You know what the first social media website I used was? | ||
Classmates.com. | ||
Is that what you used? | ||
That was the first one. | ||
Legit first one. | ||
Then Friendster. | ||
No, it was YouJournal and LiveJournal were considered to be the precursor to Friendster, where people were linking with users and posting things and sharing their journals. | ||
So a bunch of my friends were using YouJournal and LiveJournal, and then Friendster happened. | ||
And Friendster was where you actually had a list of your friends people could look at. | ||
Friendster, man. | ||
And then MySpace was better. | ||
Tim, take the pillow money, buy MySpace. | ||
MySpace is totally different now, though. | ||
unidentified
|
Does Timberlake still own it? | |
A lot of people were saying, let's all go back to MySpace! | ||
It doesn't work that way anymore. | ||
It's a music website now. | ||
Mine is probably better technology anyway, and it's open source. | ||
We just need to build stuff, right? | ||
This is the point. | ||
The reason why I think what Ben Shapiro is doing with The Daily Wire is the smartest and best thing possible. | ||
It's peaceful. | ||
It's persuasive. | ||
It's resourceful. | ||
There's no violence. | ||
But it's so powerful, they are freaking out already. | ||
Smearing. | ||
You know what I love? | ||
Ben Shapiro, Daily Wire, puts out Run, Hide, Fight, this new movie, right? | ||
It's about a school shooting. | ||
And I guess some of the reviewers are saying it's kind of like Die Hard. | ||
Like an intense action movie. | ||
The Rotten Tomatoes score. | ||
What do you think it is? | ||
What do you think the critics gave it? | ||
Like a ten. | ||
Twenty-five percent. | ||
What do you think the audience gave it? | ||
Ninety-nine. | ||
Ninety-three percent. | ||
Of course. | ||
It's ideological. | ||
What was that movie with Bruce Willis? | ||
Do you guys remember where his wife gets killed and he goes by with a bunch of guns? | ||
What was that movie called? | ||
I can't remember what it was called. | ||
But it was another one of these movies where the audience score was ridiculously high because it was a really enjoyable film. | ||
It was a popcorn flick. | ||
It was Bruce Willis with guns taking out bad guys. | ||
Gotta love it, right? | ||
I love Die Hard. | ||
And it was like he was a family man and he hit a gun under a desk and the bad guy comes back in and his daughter's hiding under the stairs and then he hits it and the gun comes out and he just narrowly survives. | ||
It was awesome. | ||
unidentified
|
Death Wish. | |
What was it? | ||
Death Wish, that's right. | ||
And the critics hated it. | ||
They were like, oh, this is a gun nut masturbation film. | ||
Kid you not, that was one of the reviews. | ||
And then the audience was like, that was really enjoyable. | ||
I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. | ||
Good job, Bruce Willis. | ||
It's not Casablanca or anything. | ||
It's not this great movie of great history. | ||
It's an entertainment. | ||
You watch it at the theater, you have some popcorn, you smile, you laugh, you're on the edge of your seat, whoa! | ||
And then you go home and that's it. | ||
And you maybe get it on DVD or download it on Amazon, I guess, or subscribe, whatever. | ||
Does anyone listen to critics anymore? | ||
I feel like they, they totally whiffed on everything and the new generation is like, I'll either watch it if I like it or not. | ||
I'm not going to. | ||
Yeah. | ||
But some guys have never done it. | ||
It changed when we could get the crowd to review stuff like steam video games. | ||
You'll have like GameStop magazine or whatever will come out and be like nine out of 10 explosive. | ||
And it's one guy that works for you. | ||
And then you go to the steam reviews and there's like 70,000 reviews, 73% overall. | ||
And you're like, okay, it's a 73% overall. | ||
This is why I decided to launch a pillow company. | ||
I'm sorry, our pillow. | ||
Yes. | ||
And the my is crossed off. | ||
Somebody tweeted at me. | ||
They were like, Tim, you didn't start a pillow company. | ||
You started a teespring campaign that sells pillows. | ||
And I said, we started a teespring campaign that sells pillows. | ||
But so the plan is now I ordered a bunch of burlap sacks and we're going to pour packing peanuts into them and just staple them shut. | ||
And the gag is they're totally brutal pillows, like the worst and most uncomfortable thing you'll ever sleep on. | ||
But it's the right ideology, so you have to buy it. | ||
Don't forget, dude! | ||
Made in America! | ||
Is this the arm pillow? | ||
Yes, it's gonna be a burlap sack. | ||
We should do memory foam. | ||
You could probably sell like thousands, millions of them. | ||
It's the perfect pillow for couples! | ||
No. | ||
unidentified
|
No, no, no, no, no, no. | |
The point is, a burlap sack full of packing peanuts stapled shut is garbage, but people will buy it because it supports their tribe. | ||
That's what's going on with movies and video games. | ||
Why is David Hogg starting a pillow company in the first place? | ||
I can't remember who said it there on the show. | ||
They said, every pillow company is competing with my pillow. | ||
They'd all love to put him out of business because they all... Serta makes pillows. | ||
So, the only reason to start a pillow company, the only reason David Hogg would do it is because it's a tribal virtue signal. | ||
Now look, more power to him. | ||
I wish him success if he sells pillows. | ||
Fantastic. | ||
And so I jokingly am going to start one, mocking the whole idea. | ||
I mean, we have the hour pillow. | ||
Go to TimCast.com, click the shop button, and you can buy the gag pillow from Teespring, but we're legit. | ||
I swear. | ||
I ordered burlap sacks. | ||
We're going to film this, and we're going to run a commercial. | ||
You have a vision. | ||
We're running this. | ||
I'm not kidding. | ||
I am gonna run this on prime time It's happening and I'm looking over prices and it's gonna be very expensive But I think selling burlap sacks full of packing peanuts with an excellent profit margin. | ||
This is like a coke idea without the coke Here's the best part if people buy burlap sacks full of packing peanuts for pennies on the dollar and I sell them for 50 bucks each I'm gonna make mad profit communism. | ||
Yeah, I Let me ask you, who do you think has weirder, who got weirder, who got famous off a weirder thing? | ||
Kim Kardashian or David Hogg? | ||
Well, the thing about David Hogg is that he's in a political space. | ||
And with all due respect, man, I mean, the story and what happened in Parkland is horrifying. | ||
It's horrifying. | ||
So I got I got I got I got no beef. | ||
I got no issue. | ||
I think more power to David Hogg. | ||
He's got his opinions. | ||
I think he's a young, naive kid. | ||
I think a lot of a lot of them are. | ||
And I think they there are a lot of powerful special interests that want gun control that were willing to prop that up. | ||
I mean, look, Kim Kardashian is a marketing master. | ||
I mean, I have no disrespect to her at all. | ||
You go, boo. | ||
I'm not complaining, but it's just like weird things to get famous off of. | ||
That's I mean, to be completely honest, people are People get famous for very strange reasons. | ||
And people, if you look back in history, fame used to be negative, like almost always negative. | ||
You know, the people who got famous got famous for, you know, being murderers or whatever. | ||
Robin Hood. | ||
I mean, he's not a real person. | ||
He wasn't famous in life, yeah. | ||
I don't think he's actually real, but you think about the people who were famous back in the Wild West and they were all basically scoundrels. | ||
They're all crooked for some reason or another. | ||
Fame is a weird thing. | ||
It's just a story that you hear. | ||
Look at Dillinger. | ||
He's robbing banks. | ||
And he's famous. | ||
Capone. | ||
Al Capone. | ||
I mean, you have movie stars eventually coming in, and fame became more of this weird sideshow kind of thing. | ||
Infamous was a pretty popular phrase back in the day. | ||
Mass media changed that. | ||
Notoriety. | ||
Notoriety, basically. | ||
But look, man. | ||
Notorious. | ||
I'll tell you this. | ||
The reason I brought up all the pillow stuff, especially with making My Own Pillow Company and then David Hogg, it's because this is what we're seeing right now with The Daily Wire. | ||
You can't win when the cultural institutions have been totally taken over by the woke cultists. | ||
You can't. | ||
And so they've kicked us out of the castle. | ||
They've said, go away. | ||
What do we do? | ||
Build our own. | ||
They've been saying it over and over again. | ||
Build your own. | ||
So, okay, we'll start doing that. | ||
Now, when many of these conservatives tried launching things like Parler, for instance, they got nuked. | ||
Even Gab got nuked in the beginning. | ||
Early on, everybody started saying, you can't build your own because they control all the infrastructure, the financial infrastructure, the DNS, the servers, all that stuff, the hosting. | ||
Well, Gab figured it out. | ||
You're familiar with Gab, I imagine, right? | ||
So Gab starts building their own infrastructure. | ||
The Daily Wire is now building their own infrastructure. | ||
And so it may have been difficult and taken some time. | ||
We are really headed towards this point, tribal capitalism, where people are gonna be like, I need a pillow. | ||
Which pillow supports my political ideology? | ||
And then they'll go buy, you know, Hogg's pillow, you know, a good pillow. | ||
And then conservatives will buy my pillow, I guess. | ||
I gotta be honest, I think conservatives would just buy the cheaper pillow that makes the most sense. | ||
Yeah! | ||
But it's the tribal, the tribal leftists are really gonna go hard for, you know, whatever supports their ideology. | ||
I think the Super Bowl really was like overdone with like just all the progressivism and all the woke stuff and I think the NFL better watch itself because I mean say whatever you want ma'am, America Showed its true colors. | ||
Nobody watches television, okay? | ||
Nobody's involved. | ||
Everyone's pulling out of this political correctness stuff. | ||
Everyone's pulling out of the two-party system. | ||
They did what they did. | ||
They controlled, which is where their attention and their money went. | ||
And this whole thing about, you know, How the election went and all that stuff. | ||
It's very interesting. | ||
This is actually hilarious, man. | ||
You know the Super Bowl ratings tanked, right? | ||
Of course! | ||
But it's worse than people realize because they didn't release the real numbers. | ||
So I've got the story from the New York Times. | ||
Super Bowl ratings hit a 15-year low. | ||
It still outperformed everything else, sure. | ||
But I gotta go through this, because the numbers are hilarious. | ||
They say, Sunday's Super Bowl was watched by just 91.6 million people on CBS, the lowest number of viewers for the game on traditional broadcast television since 2006. | ||
A total of 96.4 million watched when other platforms like the CBS All Access streaming service and mobile phone apps were counted, the lowest number of total viewers since 2007. | ||
Do you know what they're not saying? | ||
This year, for the first time, they're including out-of-home viewership. | ||
They're trying to make it seem like the numbers are the same. | ||
They're not. | ||
They say, at its peak in 2015, 114 million people watched. | ||
That was people in their homes watching TV. | ||
Now, what they're saying is, including other people who watched outside of the home. | ||
So what are the real numbers? | ||
Because the real numbers could be Substantially lower. | ||
You know what I see with this? | ||
When I see the Super Bowl ratings tank, NBA ratings tanked, the ratings for sports have been going down, I think the American cultural, you know, empire is completely shattered into a million pieces. | ||
No one listens to the same music anymore. | ||
And I think it really is the internet. | ||
Ultimately, I think this is going to lead to hyper-tribalism. | ||
It's contributing to the hyper-polarization. | ||
There's no unified American culture anymore. | ||
So what you end up getting alongside things like this, people don't agree on what is or isn't. | ||
So a good example of what was wrong with the Super Bowl. | ||
They had a couple of commercials that mocked conservatives. | ||
74 million Trump voters got made fun of by these Super Bowl ads. | ||
Because these marketing companies probably don't know what to do. | ||
Who do we pander to? | ||
Well, how about pandering to neither? | ||
The divide is too big. | ||
So a lot of people just won't watch Super Bowl. | ||
Conservatives especially. | ||
Like, I'm not gonna watch it. | ||
Especially NAFTA being made fun of. | ||
So the more they do this, the more they lose power, and the more conservative institutions and infrastructure will start being built. | ||
And then what happens now that we have, you know, the Daily Wire doing their own movies? | ||
What happens in five years when you have two completely parallel economies where neither side talks to each other but they fight for the same government? | ||
Somebody's gonna throw a punch. | ||
Somebody's gonna pull out a cane in Congress like back in, you know, 1864. | ||
I would love that. | ||
I'd love it to go third world, man. | ||
Don't you like watching, like, Thailand where they just jump up and it's battle royal? | ||
I was in Thailand in 2014, and I got to stand in one of those vehicles with bloodstains all over it because someone chucked a grenade into it. | ||
You don't want to live that way, man. | ||
No, I mean, I don't want chaos, obviously. | ||
And I think that's why a lot of things haven't popped off worse than they could, because everyone knows we have a good here and they don't want to mess it up. | ||
Not yet, though. | ||
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. | ||
Look at the idea of the dueling pillow companies. | ||
People don't care about the usefulness of a product anymore because Americans are fat and happy. | ||
There's nowhere else to go. | ||
I mean, theoretically, we need... I shouldn't say theoretically. | ||
Literally, what we need is a unified culture with goals. | ||
We don't have that. | ||
The goal of the left and the right now becomes destroying the other. | ||
And the other is their imagined enemy. | ||
You make me think of, like, Bread and Circus, because you were saying how, like, sports have failed, almost, in their attempt to assuage the community because we've got the internet. | ||
If the Romans had the internet, They would never would have created that giant empire, because you would have Gallic propaganda versus Jeter sort of making YouTube videos. | ||
You would have Hannibal telling everybody how oppressive the Romans were in Rome. | ||
They'd be like, oh, well, screw this. | ||
So that's where we're at now. | ||
And everything's fracturing and shattering and decentralizing. | ||
But think about it. | ||
In the Roman Empire, communication could only travel so fast. | ||
And when you controlled the roads and the military, you controlled the information. | ||
So then people only learn what you allow them to learn, and that stops dissent. | ||
What are they doing now with everything? | ||
Censorship. | ||
Mass censorship. | ||
Control of information. | ||
Because the system is breaking down. | ||
They started losing control a long time ago. | ||
Super Bowl ratings are proof of it. | ||
NBA ratings before this. | ||
They tried putting Black Lives Matter on the courts, kick out the fans. | ||
Nobody wanted to watch it. | ||
But see, I know this might be crazy. | ||
I think people are coming together. | ||
I do. | ||
I think what you see on social media and on television is a war. | ||
Because that's what they want you to believe, that there's a war going on. | ||
But when you actually take a look at it, how many Latinos voted for Trump? | ||
Black conservatives? | ||
I mean, that's the most punk rock stuff I've ever seen. | ||
Black conservatives, you know, more than ever. | ||
And then you add like, you know, I mean, like conservatives are pretty laid back people. | ||
Today, what conservative is compared to when I started stand up, which was like super religious. | ||
Now it's just like, hey, man, don't take my guns. | ||
I don't want to get taxed and let me live my life. | ||
I feel like people are coming together more off the mainstream stuff. | ||
And when you were bringing up about This satellite, I mean, about the Super Bowl and the numbers, that's the same thing they do with the news. | ||
unidentified
|
They count airports and hotels. | |
Right? | ||
Six million people watched an airport in a hotel lobby. | ||
Because there's 30,000 people going through the airport, they say there's 30,000. | ||
Wow. | ||
They've ended that. | ||
CNN's ended the airport network. | ||
The cultural control is shattering. | ||
So I look at what's going on with the Democratic establishment. | ||
I look at what's going on with Joe Biden, and I'll tell you this, Joe Biden may have won because people hated Trump, but this is the establishment's last leg. | ||
I mean, come on, man. | ||
The Super Bowl is falling. | ||
The worst numbers in 13 years. | ||
Is it going to get better? | ||
I really doubt it. | ||
You got to understand, the Super Bowl should have attracted more viewership because streaming is ubiquitous. | ||
People can watch more than ever, and they didn't do it. | ||
And you know, I'll tell you this, that number is up by one because we had the TV on in the background while we were playing Magic the Gathering. | ||
We didn't care about the Super Bowl. | ||
It was just on TV and we ignored it. | ||
I think for one way for sports to save themselves is if they integrate the rest of the world and start having teams from other countries play. | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
No, that's not the issue. | ||
The issue is what entertains us is fracturing, right? | ||
So skateboarding, for instance. | ||
I've never been big into mainstream sports. | ||
I've always been big into skateboarding. | ||
Skateboarding is a counterculture. | ||
It's always been. | ||
Skateboarders go to buildings and then actually cause damage to property. | ||
A lot of skateboarders don't want to admit it, and they'll be like, no, no, it's not that bad. | ||
Come on. | ||
When you wax up that ledge in front of the store, the planter, and then it turns black and gray, and it's permanently discolored, yeah, people don't like that stuff. | ||
It was counterculture. | ||
There's videos all over Instagram of people fighting with security guards. | ||
I hate it, I can't stand it. | ||
You blow up the spot. | ||
What you do is security guard comes out, you say, one more try, he says, no, you leave. | ||
Then you wait, you come back later, or you just don't come back and go and skate somewhere where you're not gonna bring too much heat or get somebody hurt. | ||
But this has always been counterculture. | ||
Mainstream sports has always been acceptable. | ||
And what's happening now is from music to movies to video games, There's so much, the options are endless, that people aren't turning on one network anymore to watch one game. | ||
To become relatable, they're trying to find communities close to them. | ||
So, one of the things I think is happening with the lockdowns is a desperate attempt to get everyone to watch the same news, to watch the same stories, and to think the same thing. | ||
Because they want everyone to be unified under the same culture, at the very least. | ||
But right now, facts don't make sense. | ||
The Democrats, you know, they're coming out saying Donald Trump incited a riot. | ||
And I talked to my friends and they're like, we know he did. | ||
Look what he said. | ||
And I'm like, that video's fake. | ||
The Democrats, they put this video up on impeachment and they edited out what Trump said. | ||
They made, they fabricated fake tweets during an impeachment trial. | ||
Unbelievable! | ||
How is that legal? | ||
The Democrats fabricated fake tweets to accuse the date was wrong on one of them. | ||
And they added a verified badge to some random account to make it seem like a public figure | ||
was saying certain things. | ||
Fake. | ||
And then Trump's defense called it out. | ||
The point is, there are people who believe entirely fake things on one side. | ||
There are people who believe entirely fake things on the other side. | ||
And there are a lot of people, probably the people who watch shows like this, who are mostly kind of on one side, but understand where the lies are coming from, and understand what is really going on. | ||
What I often say is... | ||
The fringe faction of conspiracy theorists on the right has no institutional power and is often rejected by mainstream conservatives, the Q stuff. | ||
Then you look at the mainstream left, and the Russiagate is mainstream. | ||
The fringe, lunacy fake news on the left is the paramount of their tribe and their culture. | ||
On the right, it's not. | ||
Regardless of whether or not you want to rag on them, you can call me biased, that's fine. | ||
The fact is, there is no bridge. | ||
There's no in-between anymore. | ||
I, I, I, there's that Time Magazine article about how the shadow campaign and the cabal, you saw that one? | ||
Yeah, I have my theories on that. | ||
I sent it to a friend and they said, this proves the Democrats were helping save the election and protecting us from Trump's voter fraud and I'm like, how did you read that? | ||
It doesn't matter. | ||
It doesn't matter. | ||
I know I'm not going to convince these people, because they live in a different universe. | ||
There's no middle anymore. | ||
I am not a staunch conservative. | ||
I read that and they say, conspiracy. | ||
Conspiracy is negative. | ||
And people will just want to defend their tribe. | ||
So, with the Super Bowl, with the NBA, with these TV shows, The ratings are dropping because people can choose infinitely, and communities are no longer unified. | ||
So now we're going to see hyper-tribalization. | ||
Because of this, we're starting to see people who are more likely to watch the Super Bowl and be Democrat go to the cities, and the people in the cities who are more likely to just want to be independent, left alone, move out into rural areas, kind of like what we did. | ||
And it's making the cities bluer, and the rural areas redder, and it's dividing everybody based on culture and geographic location, and history tells us exactly what that leads to. | ||
Yeah, I mean, I have a couple opinions on that. | ||
One is that, do you think they want us unified? | ||
I think they want us all fighting with each other, so we can't be unified. | ||
unidentified
|
No, no. | |
They want us fighting over wedge issues, but unified over a set of facts. | ||
But, you know, in a way it's also not working. | ||
I still find it perplexing that in August of last year, TV shows like Tucker Carlson were dominating NBA primetime games. | ||
And he was getting way more viewers than professional sports. | ||
And that's Tucker Carlson of Fox News, of all people. | ||
If you would have asked me back in the day when Tucker Carlson was still wearing a bow tie, if this would happen, I wouldn't ever believe you. | ||
I would think you'd be crazy. | ||
But now he's this kind of symbol of anti-establishment. | ||
They're trying to take him down. | ||
And also, we have to point out, as I talked about, I think in yesterday's show or two shows ago, that apps like Signal and Telegram are becoming the most | ||
popular apps in the world. | ||
And they are far surpassing the number of downloads that Facebook, Twitter, then YouTube, | ||
which shows you that the people are moving towards communication forms that are free, | ||
that are decentralized. And again, there's even some questions about that specifically with | ||
Telegram specifically even with Signal, but that's what they usually represent. | ||
And moving to a form where they can't be canceled, and then they could say whatever they want. | ||
I love that. | ||
Oh, we also look at that, you know, it's just like maybe people are tired of worshipping people. | ||
Maybe like now because like this show and your ability could you have done this 20 years ago? | ||
There was no thing set up like this. | ||
So that's why they're banning everybody. | ||
They're trying to bring it all back under one roof. | ||
They can't do I mean, it's out of the cats out of the bag. | ||
And you know what's important? | ||
Authenticity. | ||
That is the collateral of today. | ||
Because once you put a suit in between the creator and the consumer, and you have to go through this filter, that changes everything. | ||
Authenticity is what people want. | ||
And when you look at something like the NBA, Their salaries just keep going up, but nobody's watching it. | ||
Why is this? | ||
Why is this? | ||
Could it be money from China? | ||
Now you got problems. | ||
You got Marxist-Cuban wanting not to play the National Anthem. | ||
Now listen, man. | ||
I go to these events. | ||
I'm like, why are we playing? | ||
And then you start to really, like, I went to the World Series, the Dodgers, when they lost to the cheating Houston Astros, right? | ||
And I was on shrooms, right? | ||
At the World Series. | ||
And I was watching it and I'm just like, man, this is just a giant military propaganda-like event. | ||
And it's, and that's what the, that's what? | ||
The National Anthem is. | ||
So I'm not really too concerned. | ||
But we all know that Mark Cuban wants those Chinese dollars. | ||
Well, he wanted to get rid of the National Anthem. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I think, look, you can call, I don't think it's fair to say the National Anthem is a big propaganda event. | ||
No, no, no. | ||
I'm saying, well, I don't know why we play it before the event. | ||
Cultural unity. | ||
So it's similar to a lot of what they want. | ||
Now, the problem is, it's one thing when we as a country Say that we're here for each other, it's a community, and we have to defend our shared values. | ||
So we sing the National Anthem. | ||
And the history of the National Anthem is actually pretty amazing. | ||
I think America is fantastic. | ||
I've been around the world and I've seen some horrifying places. | ||
Now, I think the Pledge of Allegiance is kinda creepy, gotta be completely honest. | ||
Like, pledging allegiance. | ||
Never been a big fan of pledging allegiance. | ||
America was built on defying the crown. | ||
But, I understand the national anthem, I understand at big sporting events we all come together, and here's what I see with these sporting events. | ||
When people can sit down and argue over things that are trivial, to give an outlet to their anger and their frustrations, that's not necessarily a bad thing. | ||
We can talk about bread and circuses, and it can be distracting. | ||
That's a bad thing. | ||
We want people to have entertainment, an outlet, a release, and something to look forward to, and we want people to be unified in this country. | ||
So I can respect that certain idea. | ||
The problem is the unity they're trying to bring about is unity with China under this Chinese system, like Luke was saying earlier. | ||
That's why Mark Cuban doesn't want the National Anthem. | ||
He wants to sell the NBA in China. | ||
That's why the NBA didn't want us supporting Hong Kong. | ||
So if you want to say, hey, I think we should, they're going to do the National Anthem. | ||
But the problem is you can see the erosion in the system. | ||
Look. | ||
We are not a one-world government. | ||
This world is fractured by different ideologies and different countries, and the question you need to ask yourself is, would you rather live life like an American, or would you rather live life like someone from China? | ||
In China, they weld your doors shut when you get sick and you die in your apartment. | ||
They take people to the police departments and shackle them to chairs, and then torture them for insulting police. | ||
They have concentration camps. | ||
The US is not a saint. | ||
This country has done bad things, but I tell you this, right now, we are so tolerant that we're actually having these overly tolerant people destroy everything. | ||
We have given so much to those perceived to be victims and weak, it's hurting us. | ||
This we need to fix. | ||
We need a decent balance, but I tell you this, In 50 years and 100 years, what kind of future do you want? | ||
A future under an American Constitution that has been strengthened, guaranteeing your rights to live, to pursue happiness? | ||
Or a Chinese system, where everything is given up for the state, just like the fascists wanted? | ||
So when I hear they want to sing the National Anthem, the National Anthem to me represents the Constitution, which many of these establishment elites want to destroy, and especially our enemies. | ||
If we are fractured and we don't come together as a community who shares these values, we will be destroyed. | ||
There was a time where they didn't make it mandatory. | ||
Now it's mandatory. | ||
And I'm fine with that position. | ||
I just go, why are we listening to this before a pro wrestling event? | ||
I think it's a bad song, relatively. | ||
It's just kind of a crappy song. | ||
I love the song. | ||
It's just, I don't know why. | ||
It's like, oh, what is that, Batman? | ||
It's just some junkie. | ||
Bland melody that goes up and down talking in like 1700s language. | ||
It's like Nationalism is only bad in America everywhere else I mean listen when Conor McGregor or Tyson Fury goes and fights him where they come in droves and they sing their national anthem with pride listen I I'm a nationalist when it comes to sporting events, when it comes to business. | ||
I don't think American lives are more important than Iraqi lives. | ||
I'm a human being and I think people have the right to raise their family, feed their family, take care of their family, and live their life. | ||
I don't like when we're going over there and bombing brown people and we're acting like we're doing it to stop terrorism when it's all about making bankers rich, okay? | ||
But the notion of not being proud to be an American is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard of. | ||
Because everywhere else has huge pride in their country. | ||
When American fighters go to fight Brazilians, American fighters get booed down bad. | ||
Doesn't matter who the Brazilian fighter is. | ||
Brazilians always support Brazilians. | ||
My problem is when we get like Americans that are like, I guess the term would be scum junkies that like don't do anything or contribute to society and say, I am great because I was born here. | ||
Like you're great because of your merit. | ||
If you do good, you're great. | ||
If you don't, you suck. | ||
But I don't think that's a real thing for the most people that are like I have the power because I'm an American | ||
Even though I'm where are these people? | ||
I mean up with them, but there's listen man It's okay to be like I'm proud to be an American like I'm | ||
from Cortland, New York Okay | ||
607 has the highest rate of welfare and incest in the whole entire state and I have a tattoo of it on my leg | ||
I love being from there. There's a lot of junkiness there, but those that's my tribe, man | ||
And like there's nothing wrong with that and sometimes that's all people have listen tribalism based on | ||
These shared values of freedom and individual liberty and things that we cherish I think is fantastic | ||
Tribalism is fractured in this country because one faction despises the Constitution and these shared values of American culture. | ||
They hate America. | ||
I think it's funny because, you know, it's the old trope of like Kennedy and, you know, the liberals hate America! | ||
And I'm like, well, I don't think the liberals do. | ||
I think the far left does. | ||
And I think the establishment Democrats just don't care so long as they can line their pockets with gold. | ||
That's the problem. | ||
And don't get me wrong. | ||
I'm sorry. | ||
I'm sorry. | ||
The Republicans, too! | ||
And nationalism is their enemy, especially with Eastern European countries like Hungary and Poland. | ||
I mean, I'm Polish, and I'm very proud of my heritage, my history, my family, my bloodline. | ||
No one else could say that they fought off the Russians and the Communists and the Nazis and the Germans at the same time and then still didn't give a damn about it. | ||
My family did. | ||
It wasn't me. | ||
I don't want to take credit for it, but at the same time, that history That feeling that that that understanding of how ... bad it could get is passed down from family member to ... family member and it's it's a miracle that Poland still ... exist it still does and because of that we are eternally ... proud of our country but that's why there's such a ... threat against individuals because. | ||
Multinational corporations can't easily come in and ruin and take over everything like they want to when you have a strong family, when you have this identity of a group of individuals, and this is why we're seeing Eastern European countries not be taken over just like France, Germany, the United Kingdom, and other countries that are infiltrated by the powers that be and special interests that benefit off of human suffering. | ||
So there's another story I want to pull up, and this is This is why America is great, the way it's set up. | ||
Can I make a clarification before we do that? | ||
There's a difference between patriotism and constitutionalism. | ||
Like, if you're an American, but you don't support the Constitution, I don't support that type of Americanism, and I don't like that kind of patriotism. | ||
Because you can still be an American and piss all over the Constitution, but you don't even have to be an American to support the U.S. | ||
Constitution. | ||
And that's, I think, more patriotic to our country. | ||
So that's where my belief and my love for nationalism breaks down. | ||
So we have this story from Axios. | ||
States leapfrog federal government in restraining tech. | ||
So Axios reports, states across the US, unwilling to wait for the slower gears of the federal | ||
government to turn, are moving aggressively to regulate the tech industry. Why it matters? | ||
States famously serve as laboratories of democracy, testing out innovative laws | ||
that other states or the federal government can adopt. But their experiments can sometimes be | ||
half-baked or have unintended consequences, and the regulations can run afoul of the courts. | ||
The big picture, the one thing I want to highlight in this is the fight against censorship. | ||
They say, closer to the bottom, our thought bubble. | ||
Growing partisan polarization at the state level guarantees the introduction and potential passage of more party-line tech bills that wouldn't stand a chance of moving forward in the more narrowly divided federal government. | ||
It's likely, for instance, that we'll see more proposals out of red states aimed at punishing tech for perceived censorship of conservatives, while blue states may follow Maryland's lead on digital taxes, among other tech priorities. | ||
Okay, this is a good thing about America, but you gotta understand where this might lead to. | ||
I say it's a good thing because if the federal government won't stop the big tech companies that are shutting down free speech and censoring people, the states can do it on an individual level. | ||
Ron DeSantis of Florida recently announced they're gonna be proposing this bill that would punish big tech companies for censoring political individuals and regular people, giving them the right to appeal and things like that. | ||
We also heard other countries may do something similar. | ||
You know, don't get me wrong, it's not just about America. | ||
But in this country, the way the states are divided up, You could go move to Florida if you want protections against big tech censoring you, if they pass this law. | ||
But where this goes, what happens if Florida says free speech must be guaranteed and they tell Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, if you ban people, we will fine you a million dollars. | ||
Well, the big tech companies might say, fine, we won't operate in your state at all. | ||
And then the state and the people who are there will have to come up with their own solutions for social networking and financial services. | ||
Good. | ||
And it will happen. | ||
Because they're not just going to be like, oh no. | ||
No, immediately you're going to see big investors being like, this is our opportunity to move into this state and seize up 30 million new customers. | ||
So then what's the alternative? | ||
The big tech companies will say, OK, in your state only, anybody who's there whose IP address registers from your state will have free and open access and no censorship. | ||
But then in New York state, they say, you must ban all the hate speech. | ||
New York becomes deep blue, where it's dominated by only woke far-left cultists, and Florida becomes a free speech free-for-all. | ||
The people in Florida are more likely to have access to open information, to be challenged, to be de-radicalized, and the people in New York will hyper-radicalize into an insane ideology controlled by those big tech companies, and then propped up by the uniparty that controls the state. | ||
Like I was saying earlier, it ultimately leads to people dividing up red people in red areas, blue people in blue areas, and then entrenching in their beliefs, and then eventually throwing things at each other. | ||
I totally agree with that, but I think Florida should do that. | ||
I think we all should do that. | ||
And listen, if New York Wants to make it so tech can censor everybody. | ||
They're gonna really hurt themself creativity. | ||
All the creative people are gonna move to Florida and then they're gonna pay a deep price for that. | ||
Brain drain. | ||
That's what they call it when a lot of people flee countries because they're not allowed to express themselves freely in other countries. | ||
And I'm even thinking about moving to Florida myself to be honest with you. | ||
I'm thinking about it. | ||
My baby's mama would be open to it. | ||
You can buy guns. | ||
You walk in, you got your ID, you can buy a gun. | ||
It's one of the easier states. | ||
You got freedom. | ||
It's hot and muggy all the time. | ||
I know, and they got alligators, dude, and I ain't down with that. | ||
And then you become Florida Man. | ||
I like Florida Man. | ||
I'm a weirdo. | ||
The weirder the better. | ||
I lived in Miami for a couple years. | ||
Actually really close to that migrant detention center that was all over the news. | ||
It rains all the time. | ||
The rain's kind of awesome. | ||
It's like you're in a monsoon whenever it rains. | ||
Lizards everywhere. | ||
unidentified
|
It's so cool. | |
We would go out and just catch geckos and lizards and then bring them in to deal with the bugs. | ||
Because there's a lot of bugs. | ||
There's bugs everywhere. | ||
So I'm like, here's your choice. | ||
Giant bugs all over the house. | ||
Or lizards all over the place. | ||
Yeah, that's what we're talking about, dude. | ||
Tampa's got chickens just running around. | ||
Yes, we had chickens all over the place. | ||
You can't even touch them. | ||
No, yeah, so like where I lived, we'd just be driving down the street and there'd be chickens everywhere. | ||
And they were someone's chickens. | ||
And the chickens would just go home later. | ||
But here's the other thing, too. | ||
We also had problems with illegal immigrants who were coming in. | ||
There were home invasions. | ||
You're out in the middle of nowhere. | ||
Not a lot of cops. | ||
That's the tradeoff, man. | ||
If you want to be responsible for yourself, live out in the middle of nowhere. | ||
You might see more crime. | ||
You might see chickens running around. | ||
There might be a rafter of turkeys running through your yard or something. | ||
You gotta chase them off or control the turkey and deer populations. | ||
Maybe that's responsibility. | ||
But you have the choice. | ||
You have the freedom. | ||
You can do what you want on your property. | ||
Did you get nailed by a hurricane while you were there? | ||
No, we almost did, I think. | ||
I think we almost did. | ||
That makes me nervous, dude. | ||
No hurricanes in Tampa. | ||
And the house we had had shutters, like these hurricane shutters. | ||
You were inland, even, a little bit there. | ||
We were in Miami. | ||
What are you talking about? | ||
I remember visiting you. | ||
I remember we bought some chickens. | ||
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
We let them loose. | ||
Inland is relative, bro. | ||
We were in Miami. | ||
We were within a couple dozen miles of the coastline in the floodplains. | ||
So, like, we were like, yeah, go to the second floor when the hurricane comes, I guess, because we don't want to flood. | ||
I had questions about the social media acting in Florida and in New York. | ||
So if you were a Florida resident and you could post and they're like, okay, we're not going to censor anyone in Florida. | ||
You'd see everybody that posted in New York. | ||
But if you were in New York, would then you just not see the stuff from Florida? | ||
That's already how it works. | ||
That's already happening. | ||
But then if you responded to one of their comments, they just wouldn't see your response. | ||
You'd wonder, why aren't they responding to me? | ||
So would they have to block everyone? | ||
No, no, no. | ||
What happens right now is that if you're... You can do this with a VPN, so those that are listening. | ||
If you have a VPN, say VirtualShield, you can turn your VPN to, say, Germany, and then go on Twitter, and you'll see a bunch of tweets where it says, this violated German law. | ||
So you'll see the response, violation of German law, things like that. | ||
So people were doing experiments with this a while ago. | ||
They may have changed it, so it doesn't say that anymore, but it uses something, you'd get a message saying, this tweet is in violation of this country, so you can't see it. | ||
So you know it's there, you just can't look at it. | ||
So actually, when you drive through states, depending on what that state's politics are, I've had people tell me that the news that they kind of get force-fed on your phone Changes, depending on what political leanings that state is. | ||
Oh yeah, definitely. | ||
Because it's all about how ads are served. | ||
So if you're in a red area, they're going to assume you want to see red news outlets. | ||
So if they want to make money, they got to do it. | ||
The Daily Wire, they run ads on Facebook. | ||
The only reason they would do that is if the ads generated eyeballs for their site, which allows them to make money. | ||
If the cost of the ad is... If they're spending more money on ads than they're making, they stop doing it. | ||
So Facebook says, we need to make sure these ads have a big impact and work for The Daily Wire. | ||
So, if you're in a red area, more likely to get it. | ||
And I'm sure the Daily Wire chooses some of these metrics too, saying, we want people in conservative areas, who are this age, and you know, and are likely to be male or whatever. | ||
I don't know if they care about gender, but you can do that too. | ||
They can even do religions and things like that. | ||
So yeah, you go, you drive in, your notifications are gonna change. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And it's hyper polarizing everything. | ||
It's just the dominoes falling over, man. | ||
It's going to get real weird and freaky when you're like, you know, you're going to be in West Virginia or Wyoming or something. | ||
And then you're going to look at your phone and it's going to be like, wow, the world's on fire. | ||
And then you turn on New York VPN and it's all, you know, candy canes and rainbows and people holding hands and singing. | ||
And then you're like, I can literally see the country burning to the ground around you, but you're isolated in this bubble and you have no idea what's going on. | ||
That's what's kind of, it's kind of what's going on, right? | ||
People are getting what the information they want, maybe not the information they need. | ||
And I just see it happening. | ||
It's just an interesting thing. | ||
You have these blue check marks and I always say block is if you don't know who they are and somehow you'd be like, I'm the editor of wacky monkey magazine. | ||
Right. | ||
And I got 400,000 subscribers. | ||
Like how did you get that many followers? | ||
It's unbelievable, man. | ||
There are channels on YouTube that do nothing but like. | ||
Get a molten hot, a red hot nickel ball, and then like melt things with it. | ||
There are channels that just crush things in hydraulic presses. | ||
I had an idea for starting the electrocution channel, where we electrocute random objects. | ||
My idea though was, the voltage would be based on the amount of live viewership, or shares. | ||
So then you gotta tell everybody, keep sharing, keep sharing, we're getting enough views, and then you know, increase the voltage or whatever. | ||
Or amperage, or wattage, whatever, I'm not an electrician. | ||
And, uh, but the point is people really can isolate one particular thing that entertains them and they watch it forever. | ||
You hear what you would like. | ||
We goes back, it goes back to Reagan taking away the opposite opinion. | ||
Now we got two networks, two cable news networks telling you what you want to hear. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
You were saying Reagan, um, that before Reagan, you, every time a news network would air an opinion that they would have to show legally the opposite opinion. | ||
Is that what it was? | ||
It was like, and a famous thing was the Garrison Files, where this lawyer, Garrison, went on television and said he had the right to tell that side of the Kennedy assassination. | ||
And that's kind of why they took it away, man. | ||
You know, here's my whole thing about the social media and Hollywood and all that stuff is like, It's all ran by rich kids, man. | ||
Rich kids, you know, like I said, Malcolm X and, you know, the Unabomber both said rich liberal kids are the thing. | ||
And, you know, why do rich people want more taxes? | ||
Well, because they have accountants that can figure out how to not pay those taxes, right? | ||
It's actually simple. | ||
If you make a hundred million dollars and you pay a very high progressive percentage, it doesn't matter to a rich person because the percentage isn't what matters. | ||
So I'm actually in favor of a progressive tax and I'll explain. | ||
So, and even they are too. | ||
It's a complicated process. | ||
The issue is we need bigger and bigger tax brackets up, you know, higher and higher you go. | ||
If someone has a hundred million dollars per year in liquid cash coming in, which is like obscene, it doesn't happen. | ||
And they pay 60% of taxes. | ||
They still have $40 million to invest. | ||
And look, power attracts power. | ||
That kind of money, you can make a ton of investments, risk nothing. | ||
You can go on Robinhood and put it all in GameStop because you don't care about dumping a million. | ||
What does it matter to you? | ||
You make a hundred, you know, it's a drop in the hat. | ||
You can take big risks and make big money and you have little to worry about because you only need a couple hundred to live comfortably like a wealthy person. | ||
You got a bunch of houses you own, you don't care, you can do whatever you want, and then the cash is there. | ||
But if someone who makes $200,000 is paying the same percentage, then they only have, what, $70,000 to actually spend? | ||
They have no money to invest. | ||
So what ends up happening is... This is why I'm not a fan of the flat tax. | ||
If we had a really high flat tax, or the problem we have now is the progressive tax stops after like, I think, 350 or something, people who make just above that are struggling to actually grow and move upward to become the ultra-wealthy elites and actually run these businesses. | ||
And the ultra-wealthy elites are creating shields for themselves the more taxes they create. | ||
It keeps people from becoming wealthy. | ||
The more taxes they put on, the harder it is to move up. | ||
For sure! | ||
For regular people. | ||
Most tax, I mean, the federal income tax was signed by Woodrow Wilson like a thief in the night on Christmas Eve. | ||
I mean, it's just a fact. | ||
There was never a vote on it, and we never had it before that. | ||
We were supposed to only pay taxes for when the war, for war. | ||
The real issue is the Federal Reserve gives them the ability to control the flow of the economy and how the country spends its money. | ||
And the taxes is just a way of recuperating and facilitating the machine. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
You know what my favorite tax is? | ||
unidentified
|
What? | |
No tax? | ||
Yeah. | ||
But it's not just taxes. | ||
It's also regulations. | ||
It's also rules. | ||
It's also inspections. | ||
It's also all the little middle management things that the government takes as a way of supposedly helping people. | ||
But they're created by the big oligarchs who keep people down. | ||
It's the corruption. | ||
It's the corruption. | ||
If a bunch of people got together and said, anybody who works on- let's say you have a hundred acres of land. | ||
And you got a bunch of your friends, a hundred of your friends, each live on one acre and they're all living on this property. | ||
And there's a stream. | ||
And this one dude keeps taking a dump in it. | ||
And you all get together and say, from now on, no one's allowed to take a dump in the stream. | ||
You've just regulated the stream usage. | ||
That's a good thing. | ||
That's because they did this on purpose. | ||
They made it regulation. | ||
So everyone flip out. | ||
I have no problems with protections, right? | ||
I mean, if they called it protections, I think we'd be okay with that. | ||
Listen, that's what it is. | ||
The issue is when one guy goes to, you know, a plurality, not even a majority and says, Hey, if we all collude together, we can trick everybody into diverting the stream onto our properties. | ||
So we have more access. | ||
And we'll call it a regulation. | ||
Oh no, we have to do it, I'm so sorry. | ||
That's the problem. | ||
The system has become corrupted and tainted. | ||
Rules are fine when the rules benefit the people. | ||
I'm not a laissez-faire capitalist. | ||
I think we need some regulations. | ||
The problem is, our social programs and our regulations are typically to benefit the wealthy, to cheat, to change the rules, to help them out. | ||
The taxes do that, the stimulus does that, and the regulations do that. | ||
It's a revolving door of corruption meant to keep the poor poor and not allow for legitimate capitalism. | ||
I say, get rid of fee of entry. | ||
That's the number one way that you control people's ability to move on. | ||
I mean, look at what we're doing with doctors. | ||
When you come out of med school, you're so deep in debt. | ||
You don't have a lot of room to maneuver, to even set up your own practice. | ||
So you've got to go into these plug and play situations where if you don't play ball with these, these pharmaceutical companies, the healthcare system, you good luck on growing. | ||
Okay. | ||
And then if you want to open a restaurant, like why do I like food trucks? | ||
Because I think that's a way to just go, boom! | ||
You're getting right into it and you're starting to make money. | ||
And to open a restaurant, you have to have so much money to open a restaurant. | ||
That is fee of entry. | ||
That allows the elites to be able to move and create stuff where the port's a lot harder. | ||
That's the point I was saying about a flat tax or a limited progressive tax because you could tax a guy who makes $100 million at 80%. | ||
He still has $20 million. | ||
He can snap his fingers and make 10 food trucks. | ||
Whereas a regular guy who's being taxed at 10% but only makes $100,000 a year can't do that. | ||
So I get it. I understand. It's not like this person deserves it or doesn't deserve it. | ||
The amount of money doesn't determine whether you're a hard worker or not. | ||
I'm just saying I think a progressive tax makes more sense. | ||

Anyway, let's read some Super Chats. | ||
We got Samuel Pyle who says, I have over doubled my money in Dogecoin since the beginning of the month. | ||
Well, congratulations. | ||
Good, sir. | ||
Boom. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
We were talking about crypto deeply before the show. | ||
I love crypto, dude. | ||
I'm big in it. | ||
You were saying AA. | ||
What's it called? | ||
unidentified
|
AA? | |
Aave, man. | ||
AAVA. | ||
It's gone up in the last year. | ||
A hundred thousand percent. | ||
I have a podcast called The Union of the Unwanted. | ||
Luke, you were on the first one. | ||
We had a big Bitcoin episode on it. | ||
So if you want to check that out, it's a really great show. | ||
We got Troy Rubert says, make jail Cuomo trend. | ||
I like that. | ||
I'll tweet it right now. | ||
Adrian Sutton says, Cuomo killed more people than 9-11. | ||
That's true! | ||
Slickbossman724 says, Tim, no one needs an AR-15. | ||
What they really need is an M134 handheld minigun. | ||
Well, there you go. | ||
I'm down. | ||
Tomato, tomato. | ||
Flimsy Fox says, in reference to last night's show, just use Mastodon. | ||
I know that place reeks of far leftists, but the worst that can happen is that you don't get featured on the front page. | ||
Yeah, but they isolate themselves. | ||
They cut out other servers, so you're better off using a different federated server. | ||
I think Gab is part of the Fediverse, so you can use Gab, right? | ||
Tony says, last super chat I send on YouTube. | ||
Need to stop supporting the systems that hate us. | ||
Gonna join Timcast for our pillow. | ||
Keep up the great work, you see? | ||
That's how we do it. | ||
We make our own pillow. | ||
Our website. | ||
That's right. | ||
Tammy says, in light of the time story, why are the Dems complaining that Trump isn't admitting there was no, is that fraud? | ||
I don't know. | ||
How do they reconcile the two? | ||
I mean, I guess the idea of the time story is they're not really admitting to doing anything. | ||
They're just saying they were fortifying an election, so everything's fine. | ||
Have you ever heard of nonlinear warfare? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Do you ever think that that's part of that? | ||
Like you put that out now, the people in the theorist community are all like, see, we told you! | ||
And then the other people are like, I'm not going to read that. | ||
unidentified
|
I don't care. | |
We won. | ||
We don't care. | ||
And then it's like everybody fighting. | ||
It's Gina Carano saying, don't demonize your neighbor. | ||
And I'm screaming, oh, ban her, ban her. | ||
And then an employee wearing a political mask and they say, don't you dare fire her. | ||
And it works because people have no spine. | ||
All right, let's see. | ||
Allison C says, saw a video this morning on mines of a woman picking up insulin for her son. | ||
She said it was $60 per box under Trump. | ||
Now it's $500, thanks to Biden's executive orders. | ||
But hey, no more mean tweets. | ||
That's right. | ||
Well, y'all voted for him. | ||
Unbelievable. | ||
One of the first things Biden did was suspend that rule. | ||
What a piece of garbage. | ||
Yeah, man. | ||
Garbage. | ||
It's not even him that was cloned anyways. | ||
Justin says, Sam Tripoli, ears are bleeding now. | ||
Why so loud? | ||
Heck, I am a gorilla. | ||
A lot of coffee. | ||
Omar Talat says, Tim, I heard on last night's episode you guys talk about masks. | ||
A Danish study, which is the only RTC, found that they provide no statistically significant advantage. | ||
We also have consider how it affects kids psychologically. | ||
That's true. | ||
But I mean, aren't there studies in the U.S. | ||
that show efficacy? | ||
I don't... I don't know. | ||
Ask the stewardesses on American Airlines. | ||
I'm worried about people who will, like, see the one study and be like, that's the one. | ||
Or the one poll and be like, that's the one. | ||
You know, it's like everybody just... they'll pick the data they want. | ||
Aaron Hoench says, Sam Tripoli is doing a show at Float Fest. | ||
I am! | ||
Come see me! | ||
March... I think it's... | ||
March 13th. Oh, it's 8th through the 11th. | ||
Scott K says my grandpa was one of the first nursing home victims in Buffalo, New York. | ||
He was in a nursing home for just rehab was supposed to be in and out. | ||
My dad couldn't say goodbye. | ||
That's that's so messed up, dude. | ||
Cuomo's sick. | ||
Yeah. Richard Thibaud says get Cuomo. | ||
But what about Michigan and New Jersey's governors that did the same? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, 100 percent. | |
But they all did it, man. | ||
All the... I mean, like, you know, you just... I don't know what the left's defense of the Democrats are. | ||
I mean, what is the... I mean, they brought... I mean, the whole theory is they came over here to tank the economy, and they still had a weird election. | ||
Am I right? | ||
I mean, it's kind of weird. | ||
All right, we got Keb Lee from Star Trek, with the first link the chain is forged. | ||
The first speech... All right, let me start over. | ||
With the first link the chain is forged. | ||
The first speech censured. | ||
The first thought forbidden. | ||
The first freedom denied chains us all irrevocably. | ||
The first time any man's freedom is trodden on, we are all damaged. | ||
That's from Star Trek, and that's from... The Measure of a Man? | ||
The name of the episode? | ||
I think that was. | ||
unidentified
|
Was that? | |
Was that what it was? | ||
I mean, that's what they said about when after Alex Jones and Owen Benjamin and people were just like, I don't like what they're saying. | ||
And it's just like, hey, man, it's not you got to protect everyone, not just the people you like. | ||
Because eventually they'll come back around. | ||
That's the biggest thing with the left. | ||
They don't realize censorship came from the right. | ||
The religious right on lifestyles and who you could date and all that. | ||
And what you could do and the music you could play and the stuff you could do. | ||
It came from the right to the left. | ||
Now it's left to the right. | ||
Eventually it'll come back around. | ||
Andrew Oh says, as Tim Dillon said, they are the Cuomo Corleone crime family. | ||
There you go. | ||
Neo-libertarian says 70-80% of nursing home patients room and board is paid for by state-funded Medicaid. | ||
Dead nursing home patients equals less state-funded Medicaid paid out. | ||
And they're facing a budget crisis. | ||
So there was a way for him to reduce the costs. | ||
Man. | ||
Kevin C says, Tim, have on Adam Curry of No Agenda Podcast. | ||
He's creating Podcast 2.0 to combat censorship of apps like Apple that threaten to ban content. | ||
He can set you on the path of your Fediverse idea. | ||
Funny guy, tech smart, best pod. | ||
Cool. | ||
We'll look into it. | ||
The Gray One says, as someone who lost their grandmother because of our King Cuomo, he deserves to face prison for life. | ||
13,000 are gone. | ||
Gone. | ||
Scum. | ||
Gets a bloody Emmy. | ||
Yep. | ||
I can't believe they gave... It's like giving Obama a Nobel Peace Prize. | ||
Like, what are you doing? | ||
It's also like giving Brooklyn Nine-Nine a... What is that one award show? | ||
Brooklyn Nine-Nine gets an award? | ||
What was the international... I mean, Brooklyn Nine-Nine's funny. | ||
That's a great show. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay, guess I was wrong on that reference. | |
My apologies! | ||
I like Andy Samberg. | ||
unidentified
|
He's good. | |
Yeah, that show's actually really funny. | ||
Okay, I take it back. | ||
I retract that, Andy. | ||
It was a joke and it did land it all. | ||
James says, this super chat is to pay for Santa Claus to tell you his favorite bedroom word. | ||
Must say the actual word once you get behind the paywall. | ||
What is that? | ||
I don't know. | ||
Bad words? | ||
I don't know. | ||
I guess. | ||
Our pillow? | ||
Yeah, there you go. | ||
Blake Hamer says, Tim, the violence is everywhere and hasn't gone anywhere. | ||
Just in my city alone, Columbus, GA, about an hour south of Atlanta, we've had 16 murders already this year. | ||
People just don't care anymore. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Murder is up in New York City. | ||
There's a lot of things I don't care about anymore. | ||
You know, Antifa, there was a story I was like, we could pull it up where people in Seattle are getting fed up and screaming at Antifa because they're snapping. | ||
And I'm just like, yeah, but what am I going to say? | ||
Said it a million times. | ||
I can only tell you Antifa was bad 50 billion times. | ||
And then what? | ||
Hey guys, remember when I told you Antifa was bad? | ||
They're bad again today. | ||
And another thing happened. | ||
It's just getting frustrating talking about the same thing. | ||
Maudamighty says, Tim, read my message on Mines. | ||
Lydia, heart Luke is dope. | ||
There you go. | ||
Don't do drugs. | ||
There's something about that with Minneapolis, too. | ||
It says, Catherine Austin Fitz was a government official and put together maps of where the | ||
riots were, and they were identical to the city redevelopment maps. | ||
This was a organized criminal enterprise by the Democrats. | ||
Interesting. | ||
There's something about that with Minneapolis too, like Agenda 2030, where like they wanted | ||
to just get rid of all these businesses and build up. | ||
It's the theme from RoboCop where they started riots and civil unrest so they could buy up the property on the cheap after destroying it. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And Catherine Austin Fitz, I actually interviewed her on my channel. | ||
She's great. | ||
We are change. | ||
Really smart person. | ||
She's great. | ||
We should have her on the show. | ||
Yeah, that'd be great. | ||
Unbelievable, right? | ||
Nidus says the great reset is indeed a spiritual thing. | ||
Mexico is running ads for it, and it has a cross and Catholic sign on it. | ||
People in the US need to look at the propaganda being run in other countries | ||
and compare it to the USA. | ||
Kind of like Build Back Better, right? | ||
Everyone in Europe, all these Europeans saying Build Back Better. | ||
And Joe Biden, too. | ||
Well, he's a plagiarist, so I'm not so sure about it, but it's still creepy. | ||
Unbelievable, right? And nobody talks about it. | ||
Larry Goddard says, Holy S, a wild Sam Tripoli has appeared. | ||
I lost Mew and Mewtwo. | ||
Not going to lose this time. | ||
Ultra joke ball used. | ||
Miss. | ||
Damn you, Sam Tripoli. | ||
What do you have, like Pokemon jokes or something? | ||
No, I don't know what he's talking about, but anytime anyone mentions my name, I feel better. | ||
That's right. | ||
Ron Gerian says, I'm glad Tim finally got the machine on the show. | ||
It's just weird to see him with a shirt on. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh my goodness. | |
Is that you? | ||
No, he's trying to say I look like Bert Kreischer. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, OK. | |
David Archbald says, for putting your money where your mouth is, I will send you my idea for a show for special education math instruction via job's email address. | ||
Cool, right on. | ||
And don't forget, go to TimCast.com. | ||
Become a member, but also click shop and get our pillow. | ||
It is, we, you and I together, started a pillow company. | ||
And the pillow belongs to both of us. | ||
The only thing is, like in communism, I benefit greatly from it, profit, and then use your labor to do whatever I want. | ||
It's actually very communist. | ||
It's very on brand. | ||
Yeah, beautiful. | ||
It's amazing. | ||
I'm smart, aren't I? | ||
Mitch McGilvery. | ||
In Australia, it is only the state of Victoria that is in a five-day lockdown. | ||
Victoria also banned the ANZAC Day March in April, but have allowed Chinese New Year celebrations. | ||
Victoria is our California. | ||
Wow, there you go. | ||
Is that where Perth is? | ||
Australia has a China problem for sure, man. | ||
Those fires were a lot about them selling a lot of their water to China. | ||
It got pretty bad there. | ||
Remember, that was the beginning of 2020. | ||
We're like, it can't get worse than this! | ||
And then it just kept rolling. | ||
Robodad says, all you need to do is watch Disney's versions of Chicken Little and you see it all unfolding now. | ||
Oh yeah? | ||
The sky is falling, huh? | ||
Joey Sibley says, hey Tim, look into some of the Star Wars comics, specifically the one where Darth Vader bleeds a lightsaber crystal red. | ||
Really? | ||
Is that why they're red? | ||
They're like regular crystals and then he like puts blood on them or something? | ||
Robert Johnson says, love the podcast, you guys. | ||
I only see this getting worse. | ||
There is too many issues in this country. | ||
There isn't a simple fix for any of this nonsense. | ||
I agree. | ||
Doesn't mean it's only going to get worse though. | ||
It is going to get more complex. | ||
I agree with that statement. | ||
I don't think that there's a solution in the sense that we go back to the way things were. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
I think whatever comes after this will be dramatically different. | ||
And I wouldn't call it a solution. | ||
I would call it a change. | ||
We just hope the good guys win. | ||
But, you know, sometimes I'm not too confident. | ||
What do you think about Obama? | ||
I mean, a lot of this correlates with Obama basically made it illegal for the US government to spread propaganda to the people. | ||
I mean, if you get off of these social media sites, it's amazing how wonderful the world is. | ||
And I know that's weird because we have awful things happening in Yemen and we want to stop that. | ||
And then there's this child sex trafficking stuff going on. | ||
We want to stop that. | ||
But I mean, I really do believe if you look inside and work on yourself and help others on a local level, that's where we start to make the change. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Victoria says, Ben Shapiro predicted this idea of tribal capitalism several months ago. | ||
I definitely see it coming. | ||
Jim Jam tells me to sell our pillow on Reddit. | ||
It will sell like hotcakes on there. | ||
And I know the pillow is ours, but of course, like in communism, I run the command economy and I can do whatever I want and then profit greatly to buy the things that I also want. | ||
And then KM mentions Death Wish. | ||
The Charles Bronson movies are way better. | ||
Death Wish 3 is the best IMO. | ||
The mechanic is also a great one. | ||
Cool. | ||
Danny August Mason says, Tim, I'm an actor and filmmaker. | ||
I would love to work with y'all and Luke. | ||
Start your own platform and let's tell some amazing stories. | ||
Sending love from Austin, Texas. | ||
You know what I'd really want to do? | ||
You guys should look up Gellert's Grave, the story of the legendary hound in Wales. | ||
It's an amazing story. | ||
I think it's Wales. | ||
And I want to do a short film telling that story. | ||
I'm not going to tell it now because I think I've told it before, but it's a brutal story. | ||
It'd be an excellent short film. | ||
Kay Low says, If the Great Reset fully comes to the U.S., I imagine we see the rise of serfdom, people who won't own anything and will need to work the land for the Lord Paramount of Gates Farms. | ||
Well, yeah, absolutely. | ||
That's right. | ||
Colin Stevens says, To be fair, I've given praise to Good Pillow by David Hogg because he wants American-made, union labor, and I think it's great. | ||
unidentified
|
Good. | |
If you want to make your pillow and it's supporting American workers and all that stuff, sure. | ||
I don't know. | ||
What a capitalist. | ||
Seriously, yeah, absolutely. | ||
Well, good for him. | ||
Publius the Good says, did you know it was Hitler who said that we should promote large national sporting events so people don't know what the government is doing? | ||
The number of athletes in the Olympics increased tenfold during his government. | ||
And it was ancient Rome that created the Colosseum, and it was breads and circuses that have existed well before that. | ||
It's not a new idea. | ||
You know, people like to compare things to Nazi Germany, but sometimes these things were taken by the Nazis. | ||
They didn't invent all of it. | ||
Though they were despotic psychopaths with... | ||
You know, I'll put it this way. | ||
I think a lot of the Nazi soldiers are the definition of spineless, pathetic cowards. | ||
Because there were a lot of them who knew what they were doing is wrong, but they were just following orders. | ||
They knew they were committing crimes, and they didn't care. | ||
Is that what cops are doing, though? | ||
It's not the same. | ||
I mean, to be completely fair, I mean, obviously what happened in World War II in Germany is like some of the darkest evil we've ever seen. | ||
And communists, don't get me wrong, also some of the darkest evil we've ever seen. | ||
Cops locking someone's business down is bad, and I think it violates people's rights, but it's still way far away. | ||
Now what China's doing, and Disney's protecting them, is where we're like, yeah, that's Really bad and Disney's like thanks for the help concentration camp runners. | ||
Well, just some of the reports that come out I can't even mention what what went on I mean the BBC had a report of a whistleblower that was talking about how she had to strip down young women tied them up and I we can't even get to the details of what they do, but it's absolutely sickening and disgusting and too vile to even mention and it would get this channel banned if I described what the Chinese government is doing according to this whistleblower that's reported on the BBC. | ||
Why is there a group of people on the, I call them the Black Pillars, and some of them are friends of mine, I think. | ||
I love their research. | ||
They seem to say this isn't what's happening, like that those camps aren't what we're being told, that this is part of this Cold War propaganda. | ||
What are your thoughts on that? | ||
I think Joe Biden is deferential to China, so why would this horrifying story come out? | ||
I think there are people who are desperately trying to tell us what's going on and you have special interests like Joe Biden and his family who are very favorable to China and don't want us to know about it. | ||
They just can't control everything. | ||
I mean, China's known for organ harvesting. | ||
For sure. | ||
The social credit score. | ||
It's not a stretch of the imagination. | ||
When you have that drone footage of the people that were black bagged and moved around from one railroad station to another, when you have the whistleblowers corroborate statements, when you have the Chinese government going after individuals who criticize the Chinese government outside of the country, going after their families inside of China... In America! | ||
In America? | ||
There was a warning to Chinese citizens or Chinese Americans who are in America because the Chinese government would come here and come after them. | ||
We'll say Tiananmen Square. | ||
The Chinese government often wants people to forget what they did, how they moved tanks and murdered a bunch of... There was a major NYPD officer that was caught working as a Chinese spy, spying on the Tibetan community in New York City. | ||
I think the Blackpill community is suffering from cognitive dissonance. | ||
Well, that is a weird thing because a lot of them are like, it's not, it's not what it is. | ||
This is part of the, the, the basically the Cold War propaganda. | ||
I go, I listen, man, just China has a history of this. | ||
I don't understand why you think that would be because it is a fair suggestion because propaganda is big and US propaganda machine is huge. | ||
So there may be levels of that. | ||
Unfortunately. | ||
Sickening as it could be. | ||
So it's always good to keep an open mind, but I mean, there's a lot of evidence. | ||
But overall, it's being extremely downplayed, especially when you compare it to Russia. | ||
Compare the coverage Russia gets, compare the coverage China gets. | ||
And that's why I have a problem with Mark Cuban. | ||
Like, they brought it up to him, and he goes, I'm not going to get involved in other countries' politics. | ||
And I'm like, what are you talking about, man? | ||
You're fully invested in the, you know, what's going on in this country and the divide and conquer that's going on that the NBA has been pushing really hard on everybody. | ||
And you know, it's like, and I'm sorry you're Jewish too. | ||
You, you, you aren't offended by camps? | ||
I mean like that should be a big thing. | ||
I am Armenian. | ||
My family, my grandfather's brothers and sisters were shot down. | ||
Genocide's a very, very, very extensive subject for me. | ||
I'm not okay with camps like that. | ||
I don't understand how Mark Cukor could be somebody who's like, I'm not getting into local politics. | ||
I'm like, what are you talking about? | ||
It's an excuse. | ||
unidentified
|
It's an excuse. | |
LeBron James, Steve Kerr, all of them spineless individuals. | ||
It's all an excuse to be like, oh, I can't get involved. | ||
It's local politics, but keep sending my checks. | ||
Give me that money. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Robert Brainerd says, Ian is the Juan Williams to Tim Pool's podcast. | ||
I've heard that before. | ||
But it's not entirely accurate because Juan Williams disagrees with them on like basically everything. | ||
And Ian disagrees on like some things. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
Vocally. | ||
But Juan Williams basically says, the mainstream media's narrative is always true! | ||
And then Jesse Waters goes, Juan, what are you doing? | ||
That's funny. | ||
Steven Luna says, glad to see this collaboration. | ||
Five great minds. | ||
Shout out to Ghost and Ninja. | ||
Heather Coran says, Nielsen places a box on some TVs in certain areas and | ||
extrapolates data for the area. I had one not that long ago, free cable, | ||
unless you have the box it isn't tracked. Yeah, so what they'll do is they said, | ||
I got an offer for the Nielsen and I don't care, they sent you two dollars or | ||
something and they're like, hey do this and I'm like, I don't care, we don't | ||
have cable anyway, so it's like, well actually no that's not true. | ||
We did at the time. | ||
And, uh, nah, it's all digital. | ||
But their metrics are just basically, like, polling. | ||
It could just be wrong. | ||
Digital numbers? | ||
Those are legit numbers. | ||
Publius the Good says, well, when CIA psychologist J.C.R. | ||
Licklider came up with the idea for the internet, it was solely for the purpose to see if their propaganda was working. | ||
They needed feedback to see what you are looking at and believing. | ||
Is that true? | ||
unidentified
|
Probably. | |
Great way to get in people's houses. | ||
I gotta research that. | ||
Yep. | ||
You know, Hapa San says the impeachment is just a big distraction to keep the senators | ||
from doing their jobs and to get the public to ignore the fact that Biden has signed over 50 | ||
executive orders. Lots of bad ones, to be honest. Keep up the good work, everybody. Yes, they could | ||
be passing COVID relief, but they're wrapped up in impeachment. So conservatives don't care. | ||
They hate the impeachment as it is. | ||
They're complaining about it. | ||
This is keeping Democrats from complaining with the fact that they're not being served by the people they just hired. | ||
You also see now like the Republican Party's begging for donations. | ||
Nobody's giving them donations. | ||
So whatever the last four years was, you are seeing the death of the two-party system in my humble opinion. | ||
I think so. | ||
So it's funny when I see people say, Republicans shouldn't form a new party because they'll just lose. | ||
And I'm like, but they'll just lose anyway, because already a large portion of Republicans who voted in 2020 say they won't vote again. | ||
Your best bet is to at least try to win some third party seats for a Patriot Party or something else. | ||
Otherwise, the GOP bleeds voters and then just loses anyway. | ||
Let me ask you. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay, go for it. | |
Yeah, yeah. | ||
Lincoln won because of a four-party system. | ||
There was a four-party run. | ||
That's why Abraham Lincoln. | ||
So expanding the system is greatly beneficial, I think, to societies. | ||
You get great minds. | ||
Well, that was just before the Civil War, man. | ||
That's why there was fracturing, you know? | ||
Well, the South may have actually seceded if Lincoln wasn't president, so who knows? | ||
Well, I mean, that's a very interesting thing, too. | ||
unidentified
|
But how much of this is, again, going back to that notion that the elites could do everything? | |
We have the election. | ||
People feel like there's something funny going on with that. | ||
OK, we have this GameStop thing where these elites make a bet. | ||
It blows up in their face. | ||
And what do they do? | ||
Oh, we're going to stop the trading so we can stop this. | ||
How much of this is just to make us think we have no power and no say? | ||
And this is the last, the death rattle. | ||
Because I believe we're waking up to an awakening. | ||
I think it's been that way most of my life, that the system is, they have full control. | ||
The DNC and the RNC are private organizations. | ||
They can kick out Bernie if they want. | ||
Trump's stormed in, they couldn't stop him. | ||
I think you're right, the end of the two-party system. | ||
You said that, right? | ||
I think we're seeing these two powerful private entities struggling to maintain the system in the face of the internet. | ||
So they're desperately trying to get control of things, but it may not work in the end. | ||
I don't know. | ||
Yeah, it's massively vulnerable to social pressure. | ||
Like, if we orchestrated, or if people orchestrated, 10 million people pulled all their money out of the banks at the same time on the same day, we'd just crash all the banks. | ||
So there's a... Buy Bitcoin, yo! | ||
Hey, to clarify that guy's super chat, I think Biden hasn't signed 50 executive orders. | ||
A lot of them are memorandums, if I'm not mistaken. | ||
Yeah, it's a colloquial term. | ||
But he's signed a lot of papers. | ||
50, at least 50 orders. | ||
Some of them it's like, what am I signing? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Gregory Nicholas says, Ian, no. | ||
Government should not take Mines' code. | ||
Also, all code should be open source. | ||
Any software where the code is hidden is tantamount to slavery. | ||
Look up Richard Stallman, creator of the GNU open source project, and bring on as guest. | ||
I think Ian's the free the code guy. | ||
I don't know what they're saying. | ||
But the government has access to Mines' code. | ||
They wouldn't be taking anything. | ||
They'd be utilizing open information. | ||
ASDFZXCV says, Internet attention addiction is causing global trigger effects of 21st century. | ||
Good, bad, and ugly. | ||
I really would love a study on number of humans' words spoken versus human texts year to year. | ||
See something, say nothing, but work them thumbs on Twitter. | ||
Educate. | ||
That's interesting too, yeah. | ||
How many words were spoken in 2006? | ||
And how many words were communicated in 2006? | ||
How many words were communicated in 2016? | ||
Social media has exponentially increased the amount of information being exchanged, and information isn't always like knowledge. | ||
Sometimes information is nonsensical garbage or, you know, a string of words that's meaningless. | ||
Earlier you said there was Not really a middle ground anymore. | ||
And I maybe start thinking that there is a middle, but it's moving and it's moving so fast because of the new amount of information that's entering the system so rapidly. | ||
So like we can find middle ground, but it's a different middle ground every moment because all this new information. | ||
No, no, no. | ||
So there used to be that. | ||
That's, that's where it was getting really, really bad. | ||
And the rickety bridge between the two islands was shaking and flopping around in the wind and you never knew where it was going to be. | ||
No, it broke. | ||
That bridge broke. | ||
Well, it used to be that there was like a middle ground that NBC would declare. | ||
And that's where everyone kind of had a week or two weeks to find it before the mass media, which, but now it's like every, every 10 minutes information you get like, Oh, well that changes everything. | ||
The point is the president tweeted that changes everything. | ||
If... It used to be that I could go to someone and say, here's what the left said, here's what the right said. | ||
The middle seems to make sense, right? | ||
And they would say, ah, the truth is always closer to the middle. | ||
Nowadays, you say to the left, here's what the right said, you can say the right, here's what the left said, and they both say, well, they're lying. | ||
That's it. | ||
We probably have to do a whole show on this. | ||
But it's, it's, it's, it's... The point is, I can literally show an article from Time Magazine where they say, a conspiracy by an elite cabal of powerful individuals, and the left will say, thank God. | ||
Yep. | ||
Okay. | ||
Yep. | ||
There's no middle ground. | ||
Like that article was like... I think it's getting drowned out. | ||
If ABC News had done that on the 6 o'clock news in 1994, everyone in the country almost would be talking about it. | ||
Yeah, it's like that sign where the ladyhood... | ||
It's like, is freedom more important than safety? | ||
There's a very famous image. | ||
I forgot who originally put it up, but it was at a gym and there's NBC and then there's CNN and then Fox. | ||
And I think it was CBS and Fox. | ||
And Fox says, Sondland confirms no quid pro quo. | ||
The next TV says, Sondland confirms quid pro quo. | ||
Here's what really happened. | ||
I broke it down. | ||
So this was in the first impeachment hearing, or the Ukraine hearings. | ||
Sondland said, I believe there was a quid pro quo, but Trump said there is no quid pro quo, and I quote, I want nothing, I want nothing, no quid pro quo. | ||
The framing device from mainstream media was, yeah, but Sondland said he felt like it was there, so it must be. | ||
And the framing from Fox News was, Trump's literal words were, no quid pro quo. | ||
And both were at the same time saying the opposite things. | ||
So we're doomed. | ||
Because there's no middle ground. | ||
If a tree falls on a man, Fox will be like, tree attacks man! | ||
And then MSNBC will be like, global warming is infecting the environment! | ||
The best take on it was Ryan Long, the comedian, who made a video about how he was a digital freelance journalist. | ||
And he found a way to sell footage to both Fox and MSNBC. | ||
He said, you know, look, normally if you want to sell footage, the news outlets will buy it. | ||
But Fox News, you know, they only want the protesters looking bad, and MSNBC only wants them looking good. | ||
So how do you sell this footage to everybody? | ||
Well, I figured it out. | ||
And then he has one joke where he said, one time I accidentally sent footage of, you know, a young black protester picking up garbage to Fox News, and they emailed me back saying, what am I supposed to do with this? | ||
And I said, well, if you play it backwards, it looks like he's littering. | ||
So he's a really great, really great comedian. | ||
I don't think we're doomed, but it's gonna require people to develop their critical thinking, because if you take something like this, this gorilla thing, and you shine a light on it this direction, you're gonna see a silhouette of a gorilla. | ||
But if you shine a light on it from this direction, you're gonna see the silhouette of a straight line. | ||
Both are true, both are real, depending on where you're looking at the information from. | ||
So it's gonna be important for people to develop that muscle. | ||
It was not true. | ||
That there was a quid pro quo with Gordon Sondland. | ||
He just said, Trump told me no, but I kind of felt like there was. | ||
I don't care what you kind of felt like. | ||
Did Donald Trump say, give me this in exchange for this? | ||
No. | ||
What did he say? | ||
I want nothing? | ||
Then why would you feel that way? | ||
It's nonsensical. | ||
I don't care what your feelings are. | ||
I care about whether or not there was an exchange for something. | ||
But the media decided to run someone's feelings over the exact quote from the president. | ||
They could have just quoted him and left it at that. | ||
They decided to say, well, you know, we believe this guy's got feeling over what was actually said. | ||
It's ridiculous. | ||
It's like, I get it. | ||
That Trump could go, I don't want a quid pro quo. | ||
Wink wink. | ||
And then you'd argue, he was winking at me the whole time. | ||
Maybe that would make sense. | ||
No, it was literally Trump saying, I don't want anything. | ||
No quid pro quo. | ||
You know, just, just get the job done. | ||
Why would you then come out and testify? | ||
But there really was one. | ||
And why would the media then agree with you? | ||
It's stupid. | ||
It's fake. | ||
There's no middle ground. | ||
It's all about just appeasing one tribe over the other, and then everyone's going to rip each other's throats out. | ||
And there's no consequence for lying. | ||
There's just none anymore. | ||
Nobody, if you get caught lying, nobody pays the price for it. | ||
It happens all the time. | ||
And it's just to feed this media machine that sells us poison for our brains. | ||

|
Why is that? | |
Did you, have you followed the path of when it, because it used to be like a heinous crime to I just remember the last time somebody paid for something was again, the Iran Contra when the government got busted selling crack in the inner city. | ||
Yep. | ||
Nope. | ||
I never, after that, everybody, maybe there was Scooter Libby that kind of took the fall, but You know, like, nobody. | ||
Nobody, dude. | ||
And it's kind of crazy. | ||
All right, let's just do a couple more Super Chats here. | ||
We got Casey Lorne who says, Canada has a five-party system, four of which have enough numbers to have influence. | ||
They are forced to compromise. | ||
It's also a parliamentary system, so it makes it easier for them. | ||
And, uh, let's see. | ||
Let's do one more Super Chat. | ||
Not in the immediate future, but eventually, yes, absolutely. | ||
No, but they'll probably do mandatory buybacks. | ||
That's the only way to really do it. | ||
They can't send cops door-to-door because that would just create mass chaos, but they would do mandatory buybacks where they're like, if you don't do this, you'll be committing a felony, and then people will just do it. | ||
Because law-abiding citizens will abide by the law. | ||
A lot of people won't, though, and then things will get crazy. | ||
That's why I think they have to be very careful about this, and they'll do it slowly. | ||
And that's also why they pass laws where they grandfather things in, like, okay, we're banning machine guns, but if you have one that existed before the law, you're allowed to have it. | ||
And then, eventually, nobody has a machine gun anymore. | ||
But Trump was the only one that pushed the goalpost and made it not grandfathered in with the bump stocks, and he made countless numbers of Americans felons overnight with just his pen, which is absolutely disgusting. | ||
And Republican Senate, Republican House, Republican President, nothing for the Second Amendment, nothing for the First Amendment. | ||
