| After, after freezing the GoFundMe for the Freedom Truckers twice, GoFundMe has now announced | ||
| they will no longer allow any money to come in for the Freedom Convoy and get this, they | ||
| are taking the money and will work with the organizers to decide where it should go to | ||
| a legitimate charity that they verify. | ||
| So for everybody who's donated to the truckers, make sure you spread the word to everybody that they're holding your money and they're going to give it to a charity that they confirm. | ||
| Everybody's saying, oh, what does that mean? | ||
| Black Lives Matter? | ||
| Yeah, probably. | ||
| Maybe not. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| But you can ask for a refund. | ||
| They're announcing you can give a refund. | ||
| A lot of people are saying that this is... Some people have said it's fraud. | ||
| Because you've given money for a specific reason, and them blocking it as a third party is interfering in the exchange. | ||
| In which case, some people have said, do a chargeback instead, because you're not getting what you paid for. | ||
| A refund is totally different. | ||
| But look, I'm not the expert on how all that will work, other than we can see the statement from GoFundMe. | ||
| They've shut it down. | ||
| People have switched over to GiveSendGo. | ||
| The trucker movement is growing and we got a bunch of other really big news. | ||
| The U.S. | ||
| Freedom Convoy on Facebook was deleted, the group, and the person who set it up was banned from Facebook. | ||
| We've got statements from, you know, the press and GoFundMe saying, oh, it was violent and crimes are being committed. | ||
| They are scared. | ||
| They are pathetic. | ||
| They are losing. | ||
| And so just a lot of big news around this stuff. | ||
| We've also got, get this, today, 71 episodes of the Joe Rogan Experience have been removed from Spotify. | ||
| I have reached out for comment, have not heard anything, so it's a story. | ||
| They did this on Friday, I'm not surprised. | ||
| We can't really figure out why these particular episodes were pulled. | ||
| Michael Malice tweeted that two of his episodes of the Rogan Experience are gone. | ||
| But there's also, like, Uh, Kyle Kalinske got taken down. | ||
| So I wonder if this has something to do with things that Joe may have said. | ||
| Maybe we'll get answers. | ||
| I kind of don't think we will, but we'll talk about all of that stuff. | ||
| We got to talk about the January 6th committee being devastated, according to CNN, over Zucker getting ousted. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because we now know that CNN at the highest levels, and it's not just Cuomo, Chris Cuomo, but they were working with Andrew Cuomo on his entire COVID pitch to become a national figure. | ||
| The collusion runs deep. | ||
| They know it, and now they're scared they're losing it. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, It's like that scene in Starship Troopers when Doogie Howser puts his hand on the giant bug and goes, It's afraid! | ||
| And everyone cheers. | ||
| That's what's happening. | ||
| So we're gonna talk about all this. | ||
| Joining us today to talk about all of this and January 6th and the jails in DC is Special Agent Tario. | ||
| Thanks for joining us, Special Agent. | ||
| I find that a little offensive, you know? | ||
| Special agent? | ||
| No, actually, I find it offensive that people call me informant. | ||
| Because after doing two years at Quantico, it's special agent. | ||
| They shouldn't lower me to that standard. | ||
| And now everyone is going, oh, he just admitted it. | ||
| I mean, they're definitely going to clip that. | ||
| I'm joking. | ||
| And Enrique is joking. | ||
| But Enrique, do you want to introduce yourself? | ||
| Well, my name is Enrique Tarrio, and I am the former chairman of the Proud Boys. | ||
| As of Wednesday, I've stepped down from that role, and I got arrested a little bit before January 6th. | ||
| I did almost five months in the D.C. | ||
| Gulag, and I'm just me. | ||
| But we're gonna talk about all that stuff because, uh, what it was like in the jail, what's going on with a lot of the January 6th defendants, you know, the things they said about you, what's- just the- the- this year is getting crazy, man. | ||
| It's gonna get really crazy, it's already crazy, it's- it's the beginning of February, and we're already seeing, like, Joe Rogan getting episodes pulled, we're seeing the Freedom Convoy, this year is gonna get lit. | ||
| We also have Luke Rutkowski because Seamus got scared and started crying like, and then he ran away. | ||
| Don't worry guys, I'm going to keep you safe from that Irishman. | ||
| Anyway, I think it's only going to get crazier this year and I think it's indicative that a lot of this major news is breaking on a Friday. | ||
| The will of the people is being undermined by some very powerful, despicable entities And we're here to call it out. | ||
| Thanks for having me. | ||
| You want to support me? | ||
| You can by going to thebestpoliticalshirts.com where you get the shirt that I'm wearing right now that says Let's Go Brandon. | ||
| That's the person that I'm going to be voting for in the next election. | ||
| I'm writing him in. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I hope you do too. | |
| They're gonna be like, that's a Democrat vote, that counts! | ||
| We know what you mean! | ||
| Probably, with the way that things have been going. | ||
| Maybe I've been away for a while, but what does Let's Go Brandon mean? | ||
| Oh, come on. | ||
| It's a famous NASCAR guy that everyone really likes. | ||
| And he's running for president? | ||
| No, no. | ||
| He's just a really good NASCAR guy. | ||
| See, this is a great story, actually. | ||
| This guy, Brandon, was being interviewed by, I think, ABC. | ||
| And the crowd was screaming, F Joe Biden. | ||
| And the reporter goes, they're yelling, let's go, Brandon! | ||
| And so there it is. | ||
| Let's go, Brandon. | ||
| It's a meme phase. | ||
| I mean, that's the state of things right now. | ||
| Yeah, basically. | ||
| Clowny. | ||
| Dude, I'm glad you're here, Enrique, because I heard that you got arrested in D.C. | ||
| for possession of a weapon. | ||
| And I find out today from you. | ||
| Fake news! | ||
| It is. | ||
| It is. | ||
| And the way that that works is left-wing outlets will say, well, he got caught with a firearm, with a gun. | ||
| He was driving across DC. | ||
| Independent outlets, the very small amount of them that we have, will pick up that story without comment. | ||
| And then right-wing outlets will go ahead and they'll write it too. | ||
| But the truth is, no, I did not get caught with a gun. | ||
| I didn't get caught with ammo. | ||
| I got caught with what DC considers to be high-capacity magazines, which is your standard 30-round magazines that come with your AR. | ||
| In Florida, there is no such thing as high-capacity magazines in Florida. | ||
| You could buy a drum. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| I could I could walk around with a magazine in my hand and nothing happens to me. | ||
| But cross that border into D.C., it's actually a felony. | ||
| Wow. Unloaded. | ||
| Yeah. Unloaded. | ||
| Yeah. The piece of it's a piece of plastic with a spring. | ||
| Wow. Yeah. Well, we'll talk about all that. | ||
| We got Lydia Pressenberg. | ||
| I'm also here in the corner. | ||
| I was gonna say I got very strong Ralph Northam vibes when GoFundMe was saying they were gonna set the funds aside and decide what to do with them later. | ||
| That's a little sketchy. | ||
| I don't like that. | ||
| Hopefully get to the bottom of it tonight. | ||
| Thievery! | ||
| Yes! | ||
| Fraud. | ||

|
unidentified
|
Yes! | |
| It's not a free t-shirt. | ||
| It's free Honk Honk. | ||
| Like, free Hong Kong, but Honk Honk. | ||
| And it's black and red, and it's modeled off of the free Hong Kong flag. | ||
| So it's got the Canadian leaf in there and everything. | ||
| And if you want to support the message of everybody who's down, you know, working and everything, and supporting this movement, And I will always say this too. | ||
| If you really want to support the movement, make sure you're giving to their GiveSendGo and not buying from us. | ||
| If you buy these shirts, you're supporting the message and you're supporting our work. | ||
| If you really want to support the truckers, and I encourage it, go to their GiveSendGo because GoFundMe is seizing, you know, their... | ||
| Their money, basically, and go look for these people who are doing these live streams on the ground. | ||
| So Viva Frye, for instance, special shout out. | ||
| He's been on the ground working really, really hard doing amazing live streams. | ||
| I supported him earlier. | ||
| You guys can support him as well. | ||
| Many people have shouted out Portland Andy. | ||
| I'm not familiar with Portland Andy, but anybody on the ground covering this, breaking through the lies of the mainstream media, which we're going to show you, I want to give a special shout out to all these people. | ||
| And I'm sure there's many, many more, mind you, but those are the ones that I mostly know about. | ||
| Let's get into this first massive story. | ||
| I could not believe it. | ||
| I mean, honestly, I could believe it. | ||
| It's just crazy. | ||
| GoFundMe posted on Medium their statement on the Freedom Convoy. | ||
| They say, GoFundMe supports peaceful protests, and we believe that was the intention of the Freedom Convoy fundraiser when it first started. | ||
| We now have evidence from law enforcement that the previously peaceful demonstration has become an occupation, with police reports of violence and other unlawful activity. | ||
| When was Occupy protests considered to be violent or not allowed? | ||
| I seem to recall the CHAS, the autonomous zones. | ||
| What about the autonomous zone in Minneapolis? | ||
| Did they shut down any of that stuff? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No? | |
| Black Lives Matter and Antifa and these groups are still fundraising and making money? | ||
| Surprise, surprise. | ||
| They say to ensure GoFundMe remains a trusted platform, We work with local authorities to ensure we have a detailed factual understanding of events taking place on the ground. | ||
| Let me just tell you this, GoFundMe. | ||
| You have lost all trust. | ||
| Well, you lost your trust a long time ago, as far as I'm concerned. | ||
| I can't believe anyone would have used GoFundMe at this point. | ||
| If you... Here's what you do. | ||
| Tell each and every person you know, passively, just be like, oh, GoFundMe? | ||
| Nah, they're bad. | ||
| Don't use them. | ||
| Just really, really awful. | ||
| Use GibsonGo. | ||
| Here's where it's important, though. | ||
| They say, Given how the situation has evolved, no further funds will be directly distributed to the Freedom Convoy organizers. | ||
| We will work with organizers to send all remaining funds to credible and established charities verified by GoFundMe. | ||
| All donors may submit a request for a full refund until February 19, 2022, using this dedicated refund form. | ||
| Well, I'll say this. | ||
| If GoFundMe is like a payment processor and they intercept your funds that was supposed to go to someone, I don't know if... Maybe they've got things in their service like we're allowed to do this, whatever. | ||
| I assume they are because they hold the money first and then transfer it. | ||
| But this seems like there's some kind of... | ||
| You know, deceptive practice here that they do to take money from you. | ||
| If I say, Luke, I would like to buy some of your mental jewels or whatever the hell that thing is, and you say, okay, and then Ian takes my money and says, no, I'm going to give it to Lydia instead. | ||
| I'd be like, wait, what? | ||
| Yeah, how do you do that? | ||
| Hey Ian give me give Luke this 20 for me. | ||
| I'm gonna buy those jewels I'll be like yeah sure Tim then as I get the 20, I'm like hey Lydia. | ||
| Can I buy that coffee for 20 bucks? | ||
| Yeah, I'm gonna give you 20 and then they come to what why didn't you ask for a refund? | ||
| And I'll be like dude. | ||
| I was sitting here waiting for Luke's mental jewels. | ||
| What is that? | ||
| This is Mark, actually. | ||
| Mark Lobin actually gave me these, sent me this and a whole bunch of other supplements. | ||
| Lobeler? | ||
| Lobeler. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| Definitely read them. | ||
| Make sure you're not, like, allergic to it. | ||
| I look over at whatever Luke's got on his side. | ||
| I got a whole bunch of drinks. | ||
| great. They are by the way mental. There's got to be there's got to be something that the SEC can do there. | ||
| I mean they've cracked down before on like GoFundMe is. | ||
| If I started GoFundMe and I said, hey, I'm going to use it for X and I use it for Y, I know that that's highly illegal, right? | ||
| But for GoFundMe to do it, I think that that goes into the SEC territory. | ||
| Yeah, they should not be able to reappropriate funds, but I'm sure they have in their terms. | ||
| I'm pretty sure they do. | ||
| That if something happens in the project or whatever fundraiser is shut down, then they take the money. | ||
| I'm pretty sure GoFundMe does say that. | ||
| They shouldn't be allowed to do that, period, though. | ||
| If I say, you know, I want to give this money to a cause, they should not be allowed to reappropriate it. | ||
| It should just go back automatically refund. | ||
| Well GoFundMe has been becoming increasingly political and this move is just absolutely absurd. | ||
| This is theft. | ||
| This is people being robbed of their money that they wanted for a specific cause and then they're going to be redistributing it for causes that they believe in, that they align with, which most likely probably is going to be Marxist, leftist ideas and organizations. | ||
| Robert Barnes, a very prominent lawyer who was on this broadcast before, said that this is fraud and there's grounds for a class action lawsuit here. | ||
| Since, of course, again, how can you say that this is not political? | ||
| Especially when GoFundMe has been used in so many different political ways. | ||
| Especially when people were punished and attacked whenever they go against the establishment on GoFundMe. | ||
| There is more than enough evidence to show you that this is a hyper-partisan organization that is not there to raise funds for any charity. | ||
| They are there for power. | ||
| They are there For a political cause and nothing else, and they will stop anything stopping in their way, including good people who want to give their money. | ||
| So if you go to GiveSendGo.com, you will likely encounter a crashed website, because everybody's rushing over there to support the truckers. | ||
| I don't know exactly what the official fundraiser is. | ||
| There is one on the front page trending that says, Adopt a Trucker, and they've raised $213,827 Canadian dollars from 2,178 people. | ||
| $13,827 Canadian dollars from 2,178 people. | ||
| When I try to go to it, unfortunately, it's just crashed. | ||
| So... | ||
| And there's another thing to consider here because you know this, Tim, and I know this as well | ||
| because I've been running my own online business. | ||
| Whenever you email all of your customers, there's a percentage that, of course, never get the message. | ||
| Whether it's an email, whether it's a direct message, even if it's a message on your own platform, there's going to be a number of people that never hear about this notification, never open that email, and their money is going to go to whatever political cause GoFundMe wants to give. | ||
| So, there's going to be a lot of money here that gets redistributed in a way that it's absolutely bastardized and disgusting. | ||
| A majority of people aren't going to know this happens. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
| And it's not going to be a small fraction. | ||
| It's going to be a significant portion because whenever I try to send out messages to my members, it's only a small portion that actually do open the email, do actually read all the latest updates and important things that they need to know. | ||
| Tim, let me ask you, I mean, I haven't really been keeping up with this, but did you say that they have to fill out a refund form? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| In order to get the money back? | ||
| Well, I'm going to suggest something. | ||
| Anybody that's listening to this show, instead of filling out that credit card process, I mean, that refund form, what they need to do is they need to call in their bank and do a chargeback. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Because, I don't think there's anybody that knows... If it's a credit card though, right? | ||
| If it's a credit or debit card, it doesn't matter. | ||
| Yeah, you could do a chargeback. | ||
| Because it's really, it's services not rendered. | ||
| You're paying for a service so I could give money to the truckers, but then they're gonna give it to like some other cause. | ||
| Some other virtue signaling cause that for sure you will never give money to. | ||
| I don't think there's many people that know about the credit card industry as much as I do. | ||
| And the reason why I tell you that because I've been banned off of everything and I've had to find new ways to process payments on my 1776.shop. | ||
| And one of the tactics was that they'd go ahead and they'd get chargebacks in order for the credit card processing. | ||
| Yeah, it costs you $35 each time they do it. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| So if they pay $21, if they pay $21 for a shirt, they're going to refund $21 and then you're going to have to pay $35. | ||
| It's kind of like an overdraft fee kind of thing. | ||
| There's also, I remember when, I think it was Patreon, when they banned, I think it was Owen Benjamin, he said he wanted to go to arbitration or whatever, and every single person who got shut down, because Patreon basically interfered with like several hundred people or a thousand people and him, all of them could file arbitration, and then Patreon was panicking because that would mean they'd have to front the cost of arbitration, so it was like millions of dollars. | ||
| I don't exactly remember what happened with that, but yo, there's $10 million Canadian, there's like $8 million US. | ||
| I don't know how many people donated, probably tens of thousands. | ||
| But I don't know if they could handle if that's, you know, tens of thousands. | ||
| It could cost them a million bucks or more. | ||
| It could cost them, theoretically, around $8 million if everyone did a chargeback. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And we should also kind of speculate why this is happening. | ||
| Is GoFundMe just doing this because they don't politically align with the people in Canada, with the truckers? | ||
| Or is the Canadian government and other powerful forces, whether multinational or big banking, Coming to them and saying hey you got to get rid of these people or we're going to shut you down or we're going to make sure you can't operate your business because this is a huge setback for GoFundMe there is no logical business reason for them to do this because they are shooting themselves in the foot and isolating a huge. | ||
| public from ever using their platform ever again. | ||
| I'm never going to use GoFundMe. | ||
| I did use them a couple years ago. | ||
| Never again in my life will I ever be using them because of just how blatantly political this is. | ||
| Why did this happen? | ||
| I think there was probably speculating here, pressure from the Canadian government saying, get rid of this. | ||
| We need to stop the funding. | ||
| We need to stop these protests. | ||
| We need to stop the voices of the people in Canada immediately. | ||
| So, but one of my questions is, and I want to be fair here. | ||
| What did these truckers do? | ||
| Are they slamming their trucks into something? | ||
| Do they have Nazi flags? | ||
| Are they calling for the government to be overthrown? | ||
| We've got to be fair, okay? | ||
| We've got to be fair and call it out when it needs to be called out. | ||
| They did honk their horns. | ||
| They did honk honk. | ||
| And you know, that is a capital offense. | ||
| I mean, that's, that's, you know, off with their heads. | ||
| So says the Queen. | ||
| I mean, I'm kidding, by the way. | ||
| They did nothing. | ||
| I mean, it's a bunch of guys in trucks. | ||
| Yeah, but just even a few days ago, we had the Ottawa City Councillor come out and she demanded that GoFundMe stop This particular fundraising event because it was ... quote according to her a pipeline of funding to unlawful ... mercenaries this is the language of an Ottawa City ... counselor literally making public statements demanding a ... private company stop the voices of the people. | ||
| And that to me is for sure. | ||
| It looks like GoFundMe got political pressure. | ||
| You guys, if not from the Stripe payment system or the Swift payment system, I should call it Stripe. | ||
| It's weird that the Stripe and Swift are so similar, but Swift is the big one. | ||
| I'll tell you the situation here. | ||
| And it doesn't have to do with like their credit card processor. | ||
| They're working. | ||
| They're working in tandem. | ||
| And as far as their views go, I can tell you like this problem that we're talking about today. | ||
| We knew about this problem three years ago. | ||
| The first time I used GoFundMe where my GoFundMe got shut down was during the events of Hurricane Harvey in 2017. | ||
| Our funding goal was to do direct water rescues and we're only asking for like $1,000. | ||
| We raised like $1,200. | ||
| We passed the limit. | ||
| And they froze the account. | ||
| They never gave the money because it just had the Proud Boy name on it. | ||
| It wasn't because of anything to do with anything else, anything nefarious or anything like that. | ||
| So I've been screaming about GoFundMe for a long time. | ||
| GiveSendGo has been an excellent platform. | ||
| I uh, but they were I knew I know that they changed their credit card processor because they were using stripe system and They wanted to keep like funding like some of these j6 political prisoners. | ||
| They wanted to keep funding like their their Their campaigns, but the problem is that stripe called them and stripe said if you don't stop doing business If you don't shut down this campaign, we're cutting you off you stripe did I? | ||
| Yeah, not Swift. | ||
| No, they were using Stripe at the time. | ||
| And, you know, as a business owner, you know, they have to continue to work. | ||
| So they had no choice but to shut it down. | ||
| They changed. | ||
| After that, they changed their credit card processor. | ||
| And it's been chill. | ||
| There's another company by the name of Our Freedom Funding. | ||
| That did the opposite. | ||
| So they're like, Oh, we could we could fund all your causes. | ||
| And as a matter of fact, they they stole $85,000 from my family fund, right from my family, it wasn't like my fund. | ||
| And then from Joe Biggs, his defense fund, I think they stole a grand total out of $70,000. | ||
| They stole about like $35,000 out of his funding campaign. | ||
| So Like, you have nowhere to go. | ||
| You have no representation, right? | ||
| You have no money, and this guy comes out of the blue and is like, I got this website that you could fundraise on, and then he steals your money. | ||
| Yeah, that's my problem with non-centralized donation services, is they're insecure. | ||
| If some, like Craigslist, you know, good luck trying to do anything with any oversight. | ||
| Like, at least with GiveSendGo or GoFundMe, you've got some sort of recourse to get your money back. | ||
| I kind of want to bring it back to the truckers, because I think we have to examine what did these truckers do? | ||
| Why are they getting untapped? | ||
| I can tell you. | ||
| I can tell you, actually. | ||
| We have this story from Global News Canada. | ||
| A few nights ago, we read the Toronto Sun that claimed the truckers were far-right, racists, you know, Nazis who stole food from the homeless. | ||
| I kid you not. | ||
| Check this one out. | ||
| Security experts concerned about possible threat financing tied to trucker convoy. | ||
| What? | ||
| They say Canadians ought to be worried about whether crowdfunding websites could be used to finance hate groups and other extremist organizations, financial crime and security experts warn, as the so-called Freedom Convoy enters its second week of protests in Ottawa. | ||
| Hard questions are being asked about a GoFundMe campaign set up by convoy organizers, and whether any of the $10 million raised so far might have come from malevolent sources keen on wreaking havoc in Canada. | ||
| Security experts also say they're worried about the lack of transparency surrounding the fundraiser and whether any of the donations could end up in the hands of hate groups or people who promote hateful ideologies, including people who attended the protests carrying Nazi flags and the flags of known terrorist groups. | ||
| Heavens. Well, they basically say, well, there's, let me read this quote. The way that we're sort | ||
| of talking about this now, this event is sort of like an extremism event. So I would argue | ||
| this sort of a component of extremism financing. This is said Jessica Davis, a financial crimes | ||
| expert and president of insight, insight, threat, intelligence, yo, working class people | ||
| standing up against tyrannical government are being called terrorists. | ||
| Ian, you were saying about 9 11. Jessica Davis is like, it's sort of like a sort of a thing, | ||
| sort of. So no, it's not. You're saying actually, but this is such slander, such vicious destruction | ||
| of, of the truth. There was like, I think one or two guys with some weird flags. They got kicked | ||
| out of a rally when they were there by the protesters. | ||
| These are blue collar individuals realizing that the entire system collapses without their | ||
| participation. And they're being vilified. | ||
| they're getting attacked. | ||
| On on things that they have never done and and it's ... just mind-boggling to see this this huge full frontal ... assault with blue-collar people representing the will ... of the people there's new poll numbers coming out from ... Canada specifically highlighting how the majority ... of people in Canada. | ||
| Want to get rid of all restrictions so far as of today ... Denmark Finland Norway the Czech Republic the United ... Kingdom dropped all of their covid lockdowns and ... restrictions Canada wants to do the same thing the people ... there want that same thing the truckers there are trying to ... push those policies and the government instead of hearing ... out the people meeting them halfway seeing what they ... actually want they're just calling them racists and ... attacking them on things that have absolutely no merit at ... | ||
| Absolutely disgusting behavior that has no merit in truth at all. | ||
| I knew they could do this, this weird slander thing, but I didn't know when I was like 25 or 30 how intense and relentless it could be and how they just keep using the word terrorist, extremist. | ||
| What are these other words they were using in the reasons for canceling this stuff? | ||
| They use these buzzwords. | ||
| Hate. | ||
| Hate's another one. | ||
| They use these words. | ||
| Hate groups. | ||
| Hate. | ||
| So it's just pure fascist manipulation. | ||
| They're losing. | ||
| I know, but it's what do they do when they're losing? | ||
| They go super saiyan. | ||
| Yeah, you got to watch out that they don't... You say super saiyan? | ||
| Watch out that these crazy militaries don't go insane because they think they're losing. | ||
| They are losing. | ||
| They are losing. | ||
| The best strategic win that's come from this trucker convoy, and it's not really the protest, I think the strategic win for them is how the government's reacting to their protest it's not what they're doing because I mean I I'm a person that believes that things got to get a lot worse before they get better and there hasn't been and again I haven't really been keeping up with this I've heard but to date there hasn't been a clear | ||
| A clear way where you could see the government's overreach than we're seeing with the Canadian trucker thing. | ||
| We've seen this here, but when it comes to Canada, we're seeing this manipulation of not only the media, the government, that city council that says that they're mercenaries. | ||
| That's where the real win is. | ||
| It's the exposure that the Canadian government is getting from it. | ||
| Yeah, I agree. | ||
| It's the first time I've ever seen the Canadian government completely oblivious and ignorant of its populace. | ||
| That's usually government always, from my perspective, from the way I've been seeing them. | ||
| But, you know, this is not a surprise here. | ||
| But this also speaks to the true power that these truckers have and what kind of threat they are to the establishment that they're pulling out all these stops, all these encroachments, stealing people's money. | ||
| I was on Reddit earlier. | ||
| I'm on Reddit all the time, I'm just browsing through it. | ||
| And it's a leftist propaganda machine, don't get me wrong. | ||
| And I saw this image! | ||
| This image. | ||
| This is from George Alexopoulos. | ||
| We have a bunch of his art up on the walls here in the studio because he's incredible. | ||
| And he has this really, really great... He's been doing these satirical cartoons mocking the mainstream media. | ||
| And this one shows a trucker convoy, but the trucks are wearing Klan hoods and with tiki torches or something. | ||
| And there's a sign that says Fakism, like fascism, but it's spelled wrong. | ||
| And then it says like, oh, 106 miles. | ||
| So he's clearly mocking how the media is going after the truckers. | ||
| This was on Reddit on rslashpics, and I thought it was hilarious, because it was getting upvoted to the top of the page, like people were actually... I think it's because they use bots to upvote leftist propaganda, but whoever put it in didn't realize he was making fun of them, and all the comments were like, this is the stupidest thing I've ever seen, I don't understand. | ||
| They spelled fascism wrong, the truckers aren't fascists, all of the comments were like, this is a workers' uprising, these are regular people, and I was like, whoa. | ||
| Why are the commenters not part of the propaganda machine? | ||
| They realized what was going on in the lies. | ||
| I guess they removed the post, maybe once they realized it was making fun of the mainstream media. | ||
| But to see the comments on Reddit, understand this is a bunk idea and the truckers are good and they're hardworking people standing up for their rights, that was kind of surprising. | ||
| Absolutely and when you see the larger kind of ... implications here there's no demands by the truckers that ... have anything to do with any kind of larger political ... ideology instead it's it's all about getting rid of the ... restrictions the lockdowns the Vax mandates and ... specifically the border restrictions which would ... hinder and disrupt the global supply chain why is ... Canada implementing a Vax passport system on the border ... | ||
| Disrupting the global supply chain more than it already ... is disrupted it's a it's a situation that has absolutely ... no merit no science behind it no data people realize it's a ... bunk it's idiotic the UK government and many other ... governments are not following any of this bullcrap ... anymore and the people are there saying we're just sick ... of it we're done with it we want our lives to return to ... normal that's what they're asking for they're not left ... they're not right I haven't seen any major kind of larger ... political ideologies other than stop with this nonsense ... | ||
| That's all I've seen. Yeah, I saw one report the truckers are saying they'll stay until May. Yeah, they'll just they'll | ||
| just hang out and And these people that are claiming they're like keeping | ||
| them at night. Apparently, that's not true I was listening to Viva fries livestream and he went around | ||
| talking to people and they said they stopped blowing their horns around 10 p.m | ||
| Because the truckers realized they're not protesting people And so he basically just said that they're just they | ||
| stopped around 10 and then the the assumption is yeah the truckers don't want to piss off regular people, but | ||
| they're putting out these lies to the best of their abilities. | ||
| And then you look at these social media platforms and they're actually arguing that working class people rising up against the machine are the fascists. | ||
| Dude, it's not working anymore. | ||
| CNN, the implosion, the narrative, the lies. | ||
| It's kind of crazy because this is an election year. | ||
| Last year was kind of chill because it really wasn't, there were some elections. | ||
| And now, in the first month, we get swatted twice, right? | ||
| We're getting cyber attacks, and now you've got this populist uprising, and the establishment just goes nuclear and destroys instantly all their credibility. | ||
| Like, their credibility evaporated so quickly among regular people, I was surprised to see it. | ||
| So you're big on having law enforcement in studio, huh? | ||
| What do you mean? | ||
| With getting swatted. | ||
| Well, they came in the first time. | ||
| And now bringing me on? | ||
| What was that? | ||
| And now bringing me on? | ||
| Well, you know, I think they swatted us because of Marjorie Taylor Greene, but I'm like, I don't care. | ||
| Like, we're gonna have her back. | ||
| She came on the show? | ||
| Yeah, and we're gonna have her on again. | ||
| Oh, that's great. | ||
| It was insightful. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I missed her. | ||
| To listen to how Congress works. | ||
| See, that's what they're mad about. | ||
| That's what they're mad about. | ||
| Because she explains how these people in Congress don't actually do their jobs. | ||
| They just leave and, like, no one even votes. | ||
| They do, like, just, they... | ||
| They say yay or nay, and they sound so similar. | ||
| The words yay and nay sound so similar. | ||
| So it's like, I can't wait to do this joke. | ||
| I'm going to do it. | ||
| It's going to be so good. | ||
| Okay, everyone in favor? | ||
| Yay! | ||
| Everyone against? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nay! | |
| The ayes have it! | ||
| And then the guys bang it. | ||
| Nobody knows who passes. | ||
| They vote with their voice, dude, in Congress. | ||
| Maybe you already know that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no, no, no. | |
| But it's not just that. | ||
| It's like there's only ten people there. | ||
| It's insane. | ||
| It's like there's only ten people sitting there going like, eh. | ||
| Okay, next. | ||
| Eh. | ||
| Next. | ||
| And they're just approving and sliding things through. | ||
| That they never even read. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yup. | |
| And they're making things into law, affecting people's lives, destroying their livelihoods, destroying their existence, giving us more bureaucracy with something that they don't even understand, that special interests literally write up for them, give it to them, and they just pass it on through and make it law. | ||
| That's how a law is made. | ||
| Special interests literally just create their own rules. | ||
| That's the laws we're living under, especially with what GoFundMe just did right now. | ||
| I think there's also a reason that they did this on a Friday evening. | ||
| Because, obviously, people are tuned out. | ||
| People aren't paying attention. | ||
| People are out trying to go out and have a drink and party and relax and forget about the work week. | ||
| And I think they're trying to make sure that this doesn't get a lot of attention. | ||
| But freaking wow! | ||
| I just want to say this. | ||
| If you're not following George Alexopoulos on Instagram, you need to follow GPrime85 on Instagram. | ||
| Because he gets his art pulled off of Instagram every so often, and his jokes are just 10 out of 10. | ||
| And I can't even show you some of them because they're edgy, they're really funny. | ||
| It's really, really great. | ||
| Gprime85? | ||
| Gprime85. | ||
| We actually have his art with Joe Biden using the force lightning and vaporizing a crowd of people. | ||
| It's just really, really funny stuff. | ||
| I saw that picture of the trucker convoy with the KKK helmet on or whatever. | ||
| And I was like, oh, what is this trash propaganda? | ||
| And then I looked down and I saw G prime. | ||
| I was like, yeah. | ||
| That's what I thought it was when you guys pulled it out. | ||
| He's got, he's got, he's got another one. | ||
| I don't think I can. | ||
| I was thinking about showing it. | ||
| I'm like, I can't. | ||
| But I got to say his latest drawing, I think may be his greatest work yet. | ||
| And it's about the truckers. | ||
| And I saw people tweeting it, not realizing he was making fun of the media. | ||
| And I was laughing for like 20 minutes straight. | ||
| That's how good it is. | ||
| And it's so offensive that YouTube probably won't allow us to show it. | ||
| So you follow G Prime 85. | ||
| Seriously, it's that good. | ||
| But let's talk about what's happening here in the United States. | ||
| We got this from the New York Post. | ||
| Facebook removes Freedom Convoy page of truckers against VAX mandates. | ||
| They say, A Facebook page organizing a protest of US truckers against mandates has been removed. | ||
| And you know what Facebook said? | ||
| The group's convoy to DC 2022 was removed Wednesday for violating policies around QAnon. | ||
| Remember when Julie Kelly was here? | ||
| And she was like, wait until they claim QAnon's there. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh yeah. | |
| They're doing it! | ||
| She nailed it. | ||
| She was ahead of the curve on that one. | ||
| So, US truckers want to do a convoy. | ||
| They want to go, I think it's from like West Coast to DC. | ||
| We're really close to DC, so we would have people on the ground covering it if it were to happen. | ||
| And Facebook shuts it down. | ||
| They ban the guy who, this is what was reported, the guy who set it up. | ||
| Just a regular Facebook profile. | ||
| They banned him too. | ||
| They really do not want this to keep happening. | ||
| It is like, it's like Occupy Wall Street, but like, for real. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| You know what I mean? | ||
| AstroTurf lefty garbage. | ||
| Well, in the beginning, it represented an idea that unified the left and the right and people who just wanted accountability from the banking system that was truly controlling our way of lives, especially after the 2008 financial crisis. | ||
| But this also represents another major time in our existence where a lot of people are realizing that they were conned, that they were lied about, that they were screwed over, and they want some accountability. | ||
| They want some justice. | ||
| They want their lives to have some kind of normalcy and have a semblance of it. | ||
| And I think truckers are the backbone of many countries, including this country. | ||
| They're realizing it and understanding that they have collective power. | ||
| This idea has caught on in Australia. | ||
| It has caught on in Holland. | ||
| It has caught on in some ways here in the United States but it's being stifled so this idea doesn't grow as of course the big tech corporate monopolies are making sure that this idea is constrained and of course doesn't expand to the point where it has expanded in Canada where they have already done many actions that have led to a significant conversation that the establishment does not want to have right now. | ||
| This is a crazy year already, man. | ||
| You know what I want to do? | ||
| You know what I'm imagining in my head as Luke's talking? | ||
| I'm just thinking about Chicago on a warm spring evening. | ||
| I'm in a nice second floor apartment. | ||
| Walk over to the couch, turn on the TV, put on a movie where friends are all there. | ||
| We order a pizza and some wings and we're sitting there and we're talking about nonsense, just having a laugh. | ||
| You know, it's the way things used to be back in the day, and now it's just, yo, it's so chaotic. | ||
| Everything is politics. | ||
| Everything is conflict. | ||
| It's getting crazier. | ||
| There's no moment where you just turn on a show and try... I mean, there are these little moments here and there. | ||
| I was watching Batman earlier, just trying to, like, just get away from everything. | ||
| But I saw on, as I browse Reddit again, There's a subreddit called NonPoliticalTwitter because our culture, pop culture, is just politics at this point. | ||
| It is everything. | ||
| Are there like five tweets there? | ||
| Yeah, it's just five. | ||
| And they're like, I found them, finally! | ||
| Probably five individuals just being like, hi, the weather's okay. | ||
| Even the weather is becoming political. | ||
| Especially in Texas, especially with our energy and infrastructure policy. | ||
| It's cold in Texas, so it's the apocalypse. | ||
| And Ted Cruz. | ||
| They're like, Ted Cruz is tweeting about Cancun again, and it's like, And every day is a major news day. | ||
| Every day something significant happens to the point where if you even tune out for two weeks, you will be totally lost and not understanding of what's really happening in our modern society. | ||
| Could you imagine going to jail for like four months? | ||
|

|
I was about to tell you guys. | |
| While I was in there, all I had was like an RSS feed to like CNN. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| The Fox News RSS feed just doesn't work. | ||
| It's just a blank page. | ||
| And I missed so much. | ||
| Like everybody came out and they're like, Hey, Did you hear about this? | ||
| Did you hear about that? | ||
| And it's overwhelming to try to catch up to it. | ||
| You know, I'm trying for since January, and I know we're going to get into that a little bit later, since January, you know, I eat, sleep and breathe like J6 cases. | ||
| I'd listen into all the court cases, take a look at all the arguments. | ||
| And now just to catch up, it's impossible. | ||
| It's overwhelming. | ||
| Like I get home and I'm like, okay, I'm going to read about this. | ||
| And I'm like, You know what? | ||
| I'm not. | ||
| I'm just gonna disconnect and I'm just gonna relax. | ||
| Did you have access to information while you were in jail? | ||
| Just a CNN RSS feed. | ||
| So basically just not even news? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nothing. | |
| I had three forums to read the news. | ||
| The RSS feed from CNN. | ||
| We'd get the Washington Post. | ||
| And then there's this local DC newspaper. | ||
| I'm sorry, it's Weekly DC newspaper. | ||
| And two of the pages, two out of the ten pages, were written by Louis Farrakhan. | ||
| What? | ||
| I have it. | ||
| I have it. | ||
| I'll send you guys a picture. | ||
| And that was the only way that you got news. | ||
| I'm imagining this, and I'm like, trying to get news in your circumstance would be akin to crawling through the desert starving, and someone comes with a big basket of fruit, and you're like, oh, thank you, and you bite into it. | ||
| It's wax. | ||
| It's like, it's not even food! | ||
| I'll be honest, it was a little refreshing. | ||
| It was a little refreshing to not be locked in that 23 hour and one gulag, but it was refreshing to where I'm not constantly worried about the state of the country. | ||
| I'm in the worst part of the country and I was only there for a short time. | ||
| But if if the only media you could consume in there is that you know, and then the education program What was that like? | ||
| Oh, dude again, we'll get into that a little later. | ||
| Was it like woke? | ||
| No super woke it was it was just and I wrote down I broke down the entire curriculum for the education program by bias by Biographies. | ||
| And I'll tell you about that a little bit later. | ||
| But yeah, there's a huge, huge bias. | ||
| It's a machine. | ||
| It's a gulag, bro. | ||
| Well, so this is why Facebook nukes the organizers. | ||
| But here's what I want to say about that. | ||
| You know, I'm actually kind of grateful that our generation's elites are some of the stupidest mother effers, you know, ever. | ||
| Because if we had, like, actually competent elites, they'd be manipulating and controlling everything and you wouldn't even notice. | ||
| But these are like the grandkids of the, you know, they've inherited this world as the elites from the past generations. | ||
| And they're just really, really dumb. | ||
| It's like the inbred royalty. | ||
| They're just like, like too stupid to realize what's going on. | ||
| And so they're like, what do we do? | ||
| They're organizing again. | ||
| Quick, ban their profile. | ||
| And they ban it. | ||
| And then now we're talking about it. | ||
| Now it's Streisand affecting. | ||
| They didn't know that was going to happen. | ||
| So my only thought process is like, they can't be that dumb, can they? | ||
| Unless, unless it's on purpose. | ||
| They wanted the convoy to get more attention. | ||
| So they banned it on purpose. | ||
| That way we talk about it and it gets bigger. | ||
| But I can't believe that. | ||
| It's just I don't think they're that smart. | ||
| I think they're really dumb people. | ||
| Yeah, I think you're right. | ||
| I think there's some gymnastics to really get that going. | ||
| I mean, I think there's an effort to try to conceal everything. | ||
| That's why this was done on a Friday. | ||
| I think there are a lot of really dumb-ass individuals that are put into positions of power, especially inside of the government, but I also think there is a super intelligent kind of elitist group that do, you know, arrange a lot of these zombies into a position that benefits them greatly at the cost of everyone else. | ||
| So I think, you know, what's happening right now, it's really hard to quantify in many elements because things are moving so fast and so rapidly, it's hard to even get a consensus of exactly what's going on here. | ||
| But it wouldn't surprise me if these were uncalculated, desperate moves made by desperate individuals who have a lot of people losing faith in them. | ||
| A lot of people are saying, I don't trust the government. | ||
| The government lied to me. | ||
| The government screwed me over. | ||
| The government locked me down. | ||
| The government took away my job. | ||
| The government took away my social life. | ||
| The government took away my form of existence. | ||
| The government wants me in a pod eating bugs on VR, virtual reality, and I don't want to live in that kind of life where I have no privacy, I don't own anything, and I'm allegedly going to be happy. | ||
| No, I don't want that kind of existence. | ||
| I wish I had VR. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wait, wait, wait. | |
| I think I have VR in my box. | ||
| Oh, that'd be cool. | ||
| You're saying you don't want to live in the pot and eat the bugs? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| What are you, a racist? | ||
| That's the talking points that we're probably going to be hearing in a few days. | ||
| It makes no sense. | ||
| Would you be allowed to have an Oculus when you were in jail? | ||
| Would they give you one? | ||
| Jesus. | ||
| Jesus. | ||
| No. | ||
| It was an educational tablet with like Trump man bad, how he's killed democracy, how the I can't say it on the show, but about vaccines, about the election and things like that. | ||
| Very, very... Gulag, bro. | ||
| Yeah, you're literally a gulag. | ||
| It was really hard not to get programmed. | ||
| It was really, really hard not to get programmed. | ||
| Would they ask you to repeat what you were reading and now tell us the things that we had you read? | ||
| I should have brought it. | ||
| In the education program, they gave me a piece of paperwork to do and it said, How do I identify your unconscious bias? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| That was that was the entire. | ||
| And again, I'll send you guys. | ||
| That's like re-education. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| And that's the only that's the only media that you could consume. | ||
| Were you alone? | ||
| Were you like in isolation or? | ||
| Yeah, for the most part, I was in isolation for the first three months. | ||
| Then the U.S. | ||
| marshals had come in and did like that whole press release about the conditions being unlivable. | ||
| And I fired the alarms on that. | ||
| I went to court and then after I went to court, they rolled out the red carpet. | ||
| They sent me to like this unit. | ||
| But I was only, I was only out of the isolation for about 10 days before, guess what came by? | ||
| Joe Biden. | ||
| Army crime. | ||
| Oh, and then what? | ||
| Omnicron? | ||
| 23 in 1. | ||
| Again, back to ISO. | ||
| When you're talking isolation, is that literally it's you alone in a small room? | ||
| You alone in a small room for 23 hours a day. | ||
| And towards December, they pushed it even more, where they'd only let you out for 15 minutes a day just to take a shower and come back in. | ||
| You have a lightbulb? | ||
| One lightbulb or something? | ||
| Yeah, a lightbulb. | ||
| And then books? | ||
| Do you get books? | ||
| Wow, you get a whole lightbulb? | ||
| I get books, yeah. | ||
| And here's the thing, I'm thankful that I have such a great family and such a great support system. | ||
| People would send me books, but there's a lot of people that didn't have books. | ||
| What's with these people in there now for J6? | ||
| Can people send them stuff? | ||
| Yes, you guys could send them books. | ||
| They have to be through a certain process, like Barnes & Noble, through the USPS system. | ||
| Yeah, you can send them letters, but they get the letters. | ||
| Here's the thing. | ||
| It was January and I was getting mail from September. | ||
| So it's a hit or miss. | ||
| Sometimes it'll take three weeks. | ||
| Sometimes it'll take four months. | ||
| I want to give this whole story, from start to finish, its own opportunity. | ||
| So let's talk about what's going on in media, and then we'll make our way to the full story of what's going on with J6 and everything. | ||
| We have this tweet from Michael Malice. | ||
| Check this out. | ||
| Because we're just talking about Facebook censorship, so in light of that, we have Michael Malice tweeting, Spotify has deleted two of my Joe Rogan appearances. | ||
| Michael, did Spotify delete it? | ||
| Did Joe delete it? | ||
| We don't know. | ||
| He says both of the episodes are pre-COVID. | ||
| This website checks for you. | ||
| So if you head over to jremissing.com, you can see right at the top, Gadsad, gone. | ||
| Mike Ward and Pentelis, gone. | ||
| Michael Malice, Kyle Kalinske, Tom Segura, Michael Malice, Theo Vaughn, Peter Holmes, wherever it says new, there are 71 episodes that have been removed. | ||
| TJ Kirk, Aubrey Marcus. | ||
| Was the Theo von one recent? | ||
| The Theo von is not, no, I don't think so. | ||
| It's 925. | ||
| There were two. | ||
| Then there's a more recent one from 1141 actually. | ||
| Yeah, so he had a recent one pulled too. | ||
| Well, it was about a year ago. | ||
| Relatively recent, like Gadsad was 240 episodes ago. | ||
| So this is quite some time ago, like a year plus. | ||
| But you can see all of these are removed on the fourth. | ||
| Spotify has removed these episodes. | ||
| I think it's fair to say, but the question is, why have they removed them? | ||
| The point I was making about Michael Malice is, did Joe agree with these removals? | ||
| Did he disagree with them? | ||
| Why are they removed? | ||
| And so far, 113 episodes have been taken down. | ||
| Now, this is Joe Rogan's show. | ||
| He can do whatever he wants with it, right? | ||
| If he wants to get an episode down, fine. | ||
| Here's the challenge. | ||
| It's kind of strange that there's a website dedicated to tracking episodes of some dude's podcast. | ||
| But the issue is, as I was talking about earlier, the whole world is just conflict. | ||
| Everything. | ||
| Pop culture is conflict now. | ||
| I just want to curl up on the couch, put on some, you know, DC show or movie, watch Batman fight the Joker, have some pizza, and then wake up in the morning and go just walk around, maybe go to a restaurant, get some pancakes. | ||
| But you can't do that anymore. | ||
| Because you turn on the TV, everything's politics. | ||
| Everyone is politics. | ||
| Everything. | ||
| Everything. | ||
| So what's happening is, Joe Rogan has become, effectively, you know, like the tip of the spear. | ||
| One of the most important cultural information centers. | ||
| And it's not about him telling you facts and stuff like that. | ||
| It's about him having conversations that allow regular people to kind of understand the world. | ||
| So when Spotify bends the knee, or Joe does, to the woke mob who won't let up, As I've already stated, when they announced the misinformation policy and they gave a grain of sand, they're continually giving ground to the left. | ||
| The left will not stop. | ||
| What happens next? | ||
| The next day we get announcement. | ||
| Oh, this podcast is pulling. | ||
| Obama is saying he's not going to do anything anymore. | ||
| They're angry. | ||
| The prince, you know, who is it? | ||
| Prince William and Meghan, what's her face? | ||
| They're like, we're not going to make a podcast either, even though they haven't. | ||
| And I'm like, and then Crosby, Stills and Nash. | ||
| And I'm like giving them what they ask for. | ||
| Doesn't make them stop. | ||
| Now Spotify has pulled 71 more episodes. | ||
| Maybe it was Joe who pulled them regardless. | ||
| It's not going to make them stop. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You don't concede to the demands of delusional, idiotic, crazy people | ||
| who just want to censor speech. | ||
| And a lot of people don't just see this as a podcast. | ||
| They see this as a last stand for free speech. | ||
| And with these latest developments, I mean, this is troubling. | ||
| This website was started because originally when Joe Rogan moved from YouTube to Spotify, there was allegedly an error that was happening with some of the more controversial videos and interviews that didn't port over. | ||
| Joe Rogan made a statement statement about this said that they would port over they never did there's this website now there's more videos that are gone memory hold and no longer in existence and people are left with some very serious questions that I think we should have some answers to now again probably Joe Rogan is going through in a tremendous amount of pressure. | ||
| I could only imagine what he's going through behind the scenes of things that we don't even know. | ||
| So, what's really happening here, I don't know, but it's a troubling development, especially when 71 videos, 71 podcasts get... Why these episodes? | ||
| It's a bunch of his friends. | ||
| I think it's because he doesn't want to implicate them in the drama. | ||
| I don't know about that. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| It's my guess. | ||
| No. | ||
| Michael Malice has several appearances. | ||
| I think he has four. | ||
| Only two get removed. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But this is our Shapiro. | ||
| And hold on a minute. | ||
| If that were true, he didn't remove any of my episodes! | ||
| Is he trying to get me in trouble? | ||
| You're not dramatic, Tim. | ||
| You're so smooth and cool. | ||
| But, I mean, it's a lot of episodes. | ||
| It's 71. | ||
| I think, I honestly think that this woke mob has been satisfied. | ||
| with taking down 71 episodes. | ||
| It's a lot. | ||
| I don't think so. | ||
| Satisfied? | ||
| I think it's only the beginning. | ||
| No, I think they're satisfied. | ||
| It's a taste of blood and they want the whole enchilada. | ||
| He didn't take down Dr. Robert Malone. | ||
| He took down Gad Saad and Michael Malice and Kyle Kalinske. | ||
| And Sam Tripoli, Brian Redbrand, Ari Shafir. | ||
| No, I wonder if this has more to do with what Joe said on those shows as opposed to what the guests said. | ||
| No, definitely it is. | ||
| And here's the thing. | ||
| I was joking about that. | ||
| The thing is that their target isn't Joe Rogan episode number 1000. | ||
| It's Joe Rogan that they want to take out. | ||
| Period. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And I mean, so many, this is like, we're so behind the curve on this. | ||
| Like, we've been screaming this. | ||
| And I get why people don't like the Proud Boys. | ||
| I completely understand and I respect their decision not to like us. | ||
| I get it. | ||
| But once they took Alex down, then they took us down, right? | ||
| And they took down everybody in between. | ||
| They're just not going to stop. | ||
| And I think we're getting to that point where they're banning. | ||
| They're banning the truckers on the other front. | ||
| They're banning the truckers now. | ||
| And before that, they banned Alex Jones, the Proud Boys and everybody else in between. | ||
| We're getting to the point where it's getting so extreme that There's conversions coming from this because regular truckers probably aren't political. | ||
| Now they're like, okay, they're against my people. | ||
| Now I'm going to go to the Capitol. | ||
| You know, I think I know what this is. | ||
| When you go to jremissing.com, you can see a big, a big portion of all the new ones. | ||
| It's when you get to the top, they start spacing themselves out, like 9, 6, 3, 9, 2, 5. | ||
| There's a big gap of almost 40 episodes there. | ||
| Then 9, 12, then 100 episodes, 8, 10 to the next one, right? | ||
| Yeah, I know where you're going with this. | ||
| But you go down to the beginning, and it's like 4, 20, 21, 27, 40, 42, 48, 50, 55, 57, 66, 72. | ||
| Yep, that's back in the crude days when they'd just be saying whatever. | ||
| Back when Joe was saying whatever, saying, like, there's a compilation people have put out of him saying the N-word. | ||
| Not using it! | ||
| saying it. There's compilations people have made of him saying offensive things. | ||
| I wonder if these episodes getting pulled are because Joe himself had said things that crossed | ||
| the line or are today no longer considered politically correct. | ||
| Yeah, but even deleting them brings more attention to these videos. Like, | ||
| I think he's smart enough to understand, unless this was Spotify that did this, | ||
| but I think he's smart enough to understand that if you try to take something off of the | ||
| internet and hide it from the general public, people are going to go crazy and then talk about | ||
| about it even more and obsess about it because of that aspect of getting rid of it. | ||
| So everything on the internet is almost permanent, especially when you try to hide it and you have the Streisand effect take place. | ||
| But here's a consequence with that is from now on, it's getting watered down and watered down. | ||
| And by the time that you know it, you're going to get a completely watered down JRE podcast that is like you're not even going to recognize it anymore. | ||
| People mentioned this when the first when the shift happened, when Joe first moved over to Spotify. | ||
| There were some questions about whether or not he was going to be edgier or softer and a lot of people thought he was going soft because then he started doing these big celebrity interviews he did. | ||
| I think he had like Miley Cyrus and he had like Robert Downey Jr. | ||
| But he had on Peter McCullough and Dr. Robert Malone. | ||
| He's had on Alex Jones. | ||
| I don't think he's gone soft at all. | ||
| However, with this latest massive move, it's been a month-long campaign against them, and they now pull 71 episodes? | ||
| When that shift happened, from YouTube to Spotify, the official statement we got, I think what Joe said was that YouTube didn't archive a bunch of the shows properly, and he couldn't download them. | ||
| That happens. | ||
| That's happened to us on several occasions. | ||
| When you go into your YouTube manager, you can take a stream and click download, and for some reason, some of them you just can't do it. | ||
| What you can do, though, is you can do a hard record. | ||
| You can play the video and then just screen record the whole thing and capture it. | ||
| If you had to. | ||
| If you had to. | ||
| There's probably other programs you can get. | ||
| It's harder on livestreams. | ||
| You can't just use, like, the auto-download video thing for some of them. | ||
| But we were told they would get put back up. | ||
| They never got put back up. | ||
| This is different. | ||
| This is a sustained campaign against Joe. | ||
| And then on one day, on a Friday evening, all at the same time, 71 episodes, gone. | ||
| Yeah, I don't think they were expecting people to know which ones. | ||
| Like you were saying, it comes out, if we hadn't done this and talked about it. | ||
| Well, when it first happened, and those episodes originally, a couple months ago, were taken over during the original transfer between YouTube and Spotify, it was the most controversial episodes that were missing and accidentally not ported over, which left a lot of people asking some serious questions that, of course, Warren answered. | ||
| We also have to understand this is on the heels of the U.S. | ||
| government, the Biden administration, putting pressure on Spotify. | ||
| British royalty putting pressure on, of course, Spotify, the same British royalty that has connections and things with individuals like Jeffrey Epstein and all these other individuals. | ||
| So we're having a lot of very powerful institutions, whether BlackRock or Pfizer or the U.S. | ||
| government or all these other big financial players and multinational corporations, saying stop exposing the agenda stop destroying the narrative we need to have our way with the general public you informing them giving people informed consent and having people think critically about what we're doing to them is not helping us you better stop right now and this is an effort of of it being stopped | ||
| Here's what I want to say, though. | ||
| He didn't take Dr. Malone down. | ||
| He didn't take McCullough down. | ||
| I wonder if this might be Joe saying, okay, in these episodes, I may have crossed the line. | ||
| If I take these ones down, it protects my ability to do shows in the future. | ||
| Now hold on. | ||
| That being said, these videos taking him down solves nothing. | ||
| They still exist, they're all archived. | ||
| When the first episodes got pulled, people in mass archived all of his shows. | ||
| There's literally no point in pulling these videos down. | ||
| The clips are already out there, the criticism is already out there, the shows have already existed for a decade. | ||
| I don't see what the logical reason is for removing any. | ||
| Yeah, I don't think Joe did this. | ||
| I think he would be a lot smarter because even if he did do what you explained, he would have done | ||
| it in a transparent way where he would have made an announcement and said, hey, I need to be a | ||
| better person or whatever, or address or address it. Yeah. | ||
| Doing it on a Friday night, doing it. | ||
| I think it could either be some rogue Spotify employees because there was previous accusations of rogue Spotify employees leaking private information and of course having a vendetta against Joe Rogan. | ||
| It could be Spotify crumbling. | ||
| It could be Spotify sending a message. | ||
| It could have been an error. | ||
| Who knows? | ||
| We don't know exactly what's happening here. | ||
| We're just speculating and it's important to understand that there has been a tremendous amount of pressure put on Joe Rogan and he doesn't just represent a podcast. | ||
| He's not just an MMA guy that likes to talk about chimpanzees. | ||
| He represents critical thinking. | ||
| He represents thought being expressed by questions. | ||
| And for him to be taken down is crazy. | ||
| What a reality, what a timeline we're in. | ||
| Coming off of the Donald Trump presidency, the leader of the free world, leading the charge on critical thinking, the guy from Fear Factor, Joe Rogan. | ||
| Live with Theo Vaughn. | ||
| Who had a contest that made people drink special juices from horses for $50,000. | ||
| They said that comedians were like the truth tellers of our age. | ||
| And I never really truly understood it until about three years ago. | ||
| Yeah, absolutely. | ||
| Good point. | ||
| Make that point again, because that's an important point that you just made that the comedians are the truth tellers of our age. | ||
| And there have been like, I think Voltaire said, if you're going to tell people the truth, make sure you make them laugh or they'll kill you. | ||
| Yeah, it's just so true. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| That's a very good, good point you brought up. | ||
| Even powerful militant elite authoritarians want to laugh. | ||
| They're human, you know, and they love comedy. | ||
| I'm grateful. | ||
| Osama Bin Laden played Final Fantasy VII. | ||
| I want to just, we'll wrap this segment up with a couple points. | ||
| I reached out to Joe, just, you know, yo, what up? | ||
| He hasn't gotten back to me. | ||
| He has no obligation to get back to me. | ||
| I don't want to, you know, abuse the fact that I know him to get privy to information or anything like that. | ||
| If he can't talk about it, well, you know, unfortunately then he can't. | ||
| But I don't know, maybe he'll message me back and say, yeah, I was working out or something. | ||
| So I will say, It's really, really good that his show exists. | ||
| I mean, it's really, really important. | ||
| The Malone episode is still up. | ||
| The reason we're all like, yo, what's going on is because we recognize how important his show is. | ||
| And it's worrying to see that episodes are getting pulled down. | ||
| We need to be able to cut through the BS and outside of Joe. | ||
| It's important to mention that the mainstream narrative, the mainstream media, they're tumbling, they're fumbling, they're falling apart. | ||
| We got this story from Yahoo News. | ||
| January 6th committee lawmakers devastated by Jeff Zucker's ouster from CNN. | ||
| This one's just a really amazing story. | ||
| Because apparently, CNN employees are freaking out that Jeff Zucker gets, you know, he gets basically ousted. | ||
| The new guy, who's apparently one of the largest shareholders, and I think it's called from Liberty Media, which is the largest shareholder in Discovery, who is then taking over CNN, is a large Trump donor. | ||
| So the top-level CNN staff are all freaking out, and they're saying in these meetings that, I've spoken with four members of the January 6th committee, and they're devastated this is happening. | ||
| Why are they devastated? | ||
| Because we learned from Rolling Stone that at the highest levels of CNN, they were colluding with Andrew Cuomo, a Democrat governor, to help him craft his COVID narrative. | ||
| They were talking about this guy being a presidential candidate at the time, and CNN was helping him. | ||
| Chris Cuomo was helping his brother. | ||
| And I think that's why the whole scandal erupts. | ||
| Chris Cuomo helps his brother, knows Zucker's helping his brother. | ||
| Then, when he gets busted, Zucker says, you're fired. | ||
| Chris Cuomo goes, you were doing the same thing! | ||
| And he's like, too bad. | ||
| And he's like, well then pay me out my contract. | ||
| And Zucker's like, I ain't paying you out your contract. | ||
| And then Chris says, I will oust, I will get you fired, I will tell everybody about your relationship with this woman. | ||
| And then he does. | ||
| And now the whole thing's imploding and falling apart. | ||
| But you know what we see from this? | ||
| It's becoming clearer and clearer. | ||
| Out in the open, in the mainstream press, CNN was colluding with Democrats for favorable press coverage. | ||
| We always knew it because it was obvious to anyone who paid attention, but now it's definitive and in print. | ||
| We can see it. | ||
| That's why they want to censor everybody else, so they can get away with stuff like that. | ||
| My conspiracy senses are tingling because I definitely do not believe that Zucker went down because of an affair that people knew about for years. | ||
| Katie Couric was even talking about I think there's something bigger at play here, and I think there is some kind of vengeance from the Comos. | ||
| The Comos are a very powerful family politically, especially decades and decades ago, especially with the power that they had in New York and the political sphere a long time ago. | ||
| When it comes to CNN, obviously people are realizing that this is not journalism. | ||
| This is not news. | ||
| This is PR for special interests. | ||
| Special interests pay them, support them, and they do their bidding no matter what. | ||
| And they're willing to cross any line. | ||
| They're willing to violate any kind of morality in order to help the people that pay them. | ||
| And this is essentially the big business of corporate media. | ||
| That's exactly what it is. | ||
| It's nothing else. | ||
| It's not even media. | ||
| It's propaganda. | ||
| Could it be that the ousted him because of some flights he took to a certain island? | ||
| Zucker? | ||
| We don't know if Zucker was... I haven't seen any direct evidence about that, but I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case. | ||
| I'd not heard that he had been on those planes. | ||
| No, no, I haven't heard it either, but... | ||
| No, I think this is more than just an affair. | ||
| Yeah, I think it's that they were colluding with Democrats. | ||
| The most trusted name in news, working with Democrats for favorable coverage, is a massive, probably one of the biggest media scandals in the history of this country. | ||
| Or there could be a bigger story coming out about their direct involvement, that they're trying to, of course, save face on, and to, of course, not get a big backlash on, and that's why they're stepping down preemptively. | ||
| There could be something even bigger coming to light soon. | ||
| I know that you still have to finish reading it, but why would the January 6th committee be devastated by his ouster? | ||
| Because CNN is basically their mouthpiece. | ||
| They're trying to come out with this lie. | ||
| They've been screaming the lie for a year about January 6th. | ||
| It's quite simple. | ||
| January 6th was bad. | ||
| A lot of people fought their way through that front tunnel and fought with cops, fought their way in the front of the Capitol. | ||
| Really, really bad, bad riot. | ||
| A lot of these people had the doors opened for them by the police. | ||
| CNN wants to push the insurrection narrative because they are helping Democrats. | ||
| They are now being exposed, their own president colluding with Democrats. | ||
| The woman he's having an affair with worked for Cuomo. | ||
| So when they come out and they're like, it was an insurrection. | ||
| And then you get these Democrats saying, we're going to file a lawsuit because anyone who spoke at that rally was involved in insurrection is no longer eligible to be a public official. | ||
| CNN is helping them do that. | ||
| And they got caught. | ||
| That's why. | ||
| And that's why they're devastated. | ||
| They're like, oh no! | ||
| Our whole mission to defraud the American people! | ||
| Well, the whole narrative depends on the mouthpieces. | ||
| CNN is the mouthpiece of their narrative that they've been pushing and obsessing about to the point where they have been losing 90% of their audience. | ||
| They have been working so hard at doing the bidding of the special interest that they're losing everyone. | ||
| And it's not a surprise why people don't watch them, why people don't trust them. | ||
| Because it's clearer than ever. | ||
| They're not in the business of news. | ||
| They're in the business of power. | ||
| And I think you would agree with me, Enrique, that the January 6th panel is about power as well. | ||
| No, no. | ||
| It's about truth. | ||
| They're trying to find out what happened January 6th. | ||
| Man, it's really crazy to watch this past month how the establishment seems to be collapsing at an exponentially increasing rate. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And are we does this mean that we're going to see now? | ||
| Because this would be complete Twilight Zone. | ||
| We're going to see more right wing CNN now. | ||
| This is crazy because apparently this guy, John Malone, I think his name is, he owns this company called Liberty Media. | ||
| I think, fact check me on this one. | ||
| I think it's called Liberty Media. | ||
| I think that's what he owns. | ||
| And they're like a quarter, 25% shareholder of Discovery. | ||
| Discovery is basically buying Time Warner or something like that, like Warner Media, which owns CNN. | ||
| So ultimately you get this dude who apparently he's been very critical of Jeff Zucker. | ||
| He said he wants CNN to be impartial. | ||
| This was three years ago. | ||
| Now he's going to have some of the biggest, the most voting power in the company that basically owns CNN. | ||
| And a lot of people are speculating now it's going to go either like middle of the road or center right or something. | ||
| I doubt it. | ||
| I think that with the staff that they've hired, they've already created that culture within their whole, within the | ||
| whole culture within CNN. | ||
| Um, and I think that what's going to happen is you're going to see, I don't know, I don't know if they're like unionized or whatever, but you're going to see like a big push if, if he wants to take it in that direction. | ||
| I, I, I disagree there. | ||
| There's the Veritas release where there's this, like this producer guy and he's like, I remember when we were, would report the news. | ||
| Now it's just all Trump all day. | ||
| I mean, there are people who work there who are upset that they work at this job that's become this trash. | ||
| In this private meeting, you had people like Jake Tapper. | ||
| Jake Tapper said, if it wasn't for Zucker, the network would have become benign vanilla gruel. | ||
| What's the news supposed to be? | ||
| Chocolate sprinkles? | ||
| No, it's supposed to be benign vanilla gruel. | ||
| It's supposed to be your vegetables. | ||
| You know, when I was a kid, Seinfeld and The Simpsons, that was dessert. | ||
| But the vegetables was the news. | ||
| It was like, this is your five o'clock news on Fox 32. | ||
| And it was boring. | ||
| And I was like, nah. | ||
| And then as soon as it ended, The Simpsons came on. | ||
| I was like, all right, The Simpsons. | ||
| What do they think CNN is supposed to be? | ||
| It's supposed to be news. | ||
| But Zucker is a reality TV guy, a deeply, deeply evil man who turned politics in this country into a spectacle for profit. | ||
| And he destroyed the network. | ||
| There's another story from The Wrap. | ||
| Private text messages from former employees of CNN saying Zucker destroyed the network. | ||
| And he did. | ||
| And now that he's leaving, Jim Acosta, I think it was, said, We would be something like Fox News Lite! | ||
| Fox News Lite. | ||
| Does that mean centrist? | ||
| Yo, because that's probably what CNN should have been. | ||
| Wasn't there a Fox News reporter that quit live on air? | ||
| Fox, a news reporter? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| Yeah, I think you've had her on the show before. | ||
| Ivory Hecker. | ||
| Ivory Hecker, yeah. | ||
| Oh, yeah, but that was Fox Local. | ||
| That was Fox Local. | ||
| That was stunning. | ||
| I hope more people do what she did. | ||
| Because they told her that they didn't want to report stories because certain racial groups didn't care about these stories. | ||
| I think she wanted to report on Bitcoin. | ||
| Was that what it was? | ||
| I don't remember the exact details of it. | ||
| I think it was something like that. | ||
| And they were like, you know, this particular racial group doesn't care about that, so we're not going to report it. | ||
| And it's like, well, you know, to be honest, I understand the point they're making. | ||
| We run a business. | ||
| But at the same time, if your news is predicated upon what you can sell to the masses, you become CNN. | ||
| And that is a problem. | ||
| It's a fine line. | ||
| But, you know, we used to have a news or maybe we never did. | ||
| Maybe we never did. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| This independent journalism, I think, is the way it's supposed to be. | ||
| What we got now, like We Are Change and Tim Guest and stuff. | ||
| I mean, that's the future. | ||
| Less people are tuning into mainstream media. | ||
| More people are tuning into like podcasts, alternative media. | ||
| And I think it's just going to get worse. | ||
| And I think these networks are going to suffer. | ||
| The problem is with independent media is how do you verify they're not a crackpot? | ||
| That's challenging. | ||
| You kind of got to peer review them. | ||
| No, no. | ||
| You just have to only watch the shows where people speak a certain way. | ||
| Like, they talk like this. | ||
| If they speak like this, and, you know, when referring to what happened in Liechtenstein, that's how you know they're credible. | ||
| And they have suits, and they have paychecks from Bill Gates. | ||
| Then they're 100% credible, and absolutely trustworthy. | ||
| But if they talk like this, guys, really fast, like, okay, gang, we gotta talk about what's going on. | ||
| Too risky. | ||
| No, yeah, you can't trust them. | ||
| I'll enjoy the anarchy. | ||
| But Ian, to answer your question, what independent media does, what Joe Rogan does, especially with his long format, three hour long conversations, which from any kind of business perspective, if you would have asked a media guy, like, is this going to be successful? | ||
| They would say no. | ||
| But why is it successful is because you're taking along a journey of experiencing and exploring and finding things out. | ||
| Not through an agenda or a narrative or something that has already has, you know, a final plan of what you think it is. | ||
| It's an exploration. | ||
| So when we have an independent media, we have sharing of data, of information and conversations and debates that you would never have on the corporate media that question everything in our reality. | ||
| And that's why it's so much better and stronger than the corporate media trash that they feed and shove down our throats. | ||
| You see, a while back, people started complaining that the news was turning everything into soundbites. | ||
| That instead of talking about politics, it was just a five-minute clip on the TV. | ||
| Then Twitter comes along, and there's this video Glenn Greenwald shared from 2009 where he said, I think it's a problem that Twitter has this character limit and it's going to keep, you know, reducing our conversations and making it, you know, making it worse off. | ||
| Now, what's happened? | ||
| We've punched that rubber band to the point where it can't go any further, and it's snapped back. | ||
| And now we've gone from the two-minute soundbite to the three-hour long-form podcast conversation as the media choice for so many people. | ||
| So CNN, they're old guard. | ||
| Fox News, they're like, Tim, would you like to come on the show? | ||
| We'll give you two minutes. | ||
| And I'm like, nah, no thanks, man. | ||
| That's the worst. | ||
| Jordan Peterson was four and a half hours on Rogan this last one, and it was totally fine. | ||
| I only saw the first 40 minutes so far. | ||
| I was driving to Florida. | ||
| I watched all of it, and it was amazing. | ||
| It was very thought-provoking. | ||
| So who's to say how long is it going to go? | ||
| It might not even matter at this point. | ||
| Length maybe isn't the problem. | ||
| It's authenticity and an ability to flesh out ideas so people can wrap their minds around it instead of a guy coming out and being like, Antifa's bad and vote Trump! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Bye. | |
| Like, you know, hold on, let's slow down and say, you know, you've got people then saying, yeah, but Trump is bad. | ||
| No, no, no, we get that. | ||
| Like, when you have long form conversations, you can say things like, it was bad that Trump bombed Syria, but it was good that Trump tried to get our troops out of Afghanistan and set the deadline for the withdrawal. | ||
| And then Joe Biden flubbed it. | ||
| You can get into all the details around it and the nuance. | ||
| The truth is nuanced, right? | ||
| It's not black and white. | ||
| There's a lot of gray. | ||
| There's a lot of exploration. | ||
| There's a lot of things that you have to come to an understanding of by patiently hearing both sides of the story. | ||
| The only way you could do that is through, of course, long formats instead of two-minute segments. | ||
| It's meat and potatoes. | ||
| You know, when I do when and I've had a lot of times where like these networks are like, hey, why don't you come on? | ||
| And it's two minutes. | ||
| And it always if it's a right wing outlet, it's always the same thing. | ||
| Tell me who the Proud Boys are. | ||
| Tell me how you a man of color can be a white supremacist. | ||
| It's the same like there's there's no there's no. | ||
| There's no time for me to get into it. | ||
| And I think a lot of people, and we should be happy that people want that long format for media because that means that just people want more. | ||
| They want more information and they want to establish these arguments too. | ||
| Because I listen to stuff, like I listen to right-wing things just to get like a different perspective on what other people are thinking. | ||
| I also watch Left-wing podcast. | ||
| I do watch CNN. | ||
| I do read CNN. | ||
| You could do a show. | ||
| We talked about the media, the manipulation, but I want to talk about the physical actions that are being taken, get into what happened with you. | ||
| So the first thing I want to ask you, Enrique Atario, are you still involved with the Proud Boys? | ||
| Yes, I'm still involved with the Proud Boys, but more at a local level. | ||
| Wednesday, I stepped down as the chairman of the organization after about three and a half, almost four years. | ||
| Are you in any way involved with law enforcement? | ||
| Is there more to that question? | ||
| Are you a Fed? | ||
| No! | ||
| The simple answer is no. | ||
| That story came from... Go ahead, go ahead. | ||
| Have you ever done any work with law enforcement? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Yes, I have. | ||
| When? | ||
| Okay, so one, I worked with the DOD. | ||
| I was a contractor for the DOD, but that doesn't count really. | ||
| What people want to know is the FBI involvement in 2012. | ||
| I got arrested. | ||
| And yes, I helped the FBI bust a human trafficking ring coming into the US. | ||
| And then the third thing is, most recently working with law enforcement, everybody's waiting patiently, is when we go to these rallies and we go to like Portland, DC or Austin, you know, these big blue cities where Antifa comes in and wants to wreak havoc. | ||
| Before we get there, we contact law enforcement. | ||
| We call the cops. | ||
| If we're getting if we're getting threats from out of the state, yes, we will contact the FBI because that was the only people that could do anything about it. | ||
| And that wasn't a secret. | ||
| It was never a secret. | ||
| So when the story came out, it was like, oh, well, we got you. | ||
| I'm like, you've never watched my podcast. | ||
| I've been talking about this for years. | ||
| It's not a secret. | ||
| I've heard the conspiracy theories. | ||
| In the context of the political conflict over the past several years, have you ever provided information or testimony to law enforcement to aid in the prosecution of an individual? | ||
| Absolutely not. | ||
| Not even Antifa? | ||
| I've sent, yes. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| The answer to that is yes. | ||
| What about the human trafficker? | ||
| I've sent documents. | ||
| In the context of the conflict. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| We have sent information whenever we've gotten credible threats or we see threats on Twitter. | ||
| We've exposed who that person is. | ||
| And yes, we have forwarded it over. | ||
| I mean, we put a whiteout. | ||
| That's overt, right? | ||
| Like you're publicly acknowledging you're doing these things. | ||
| Absolutely not. | ||
| have you spoken with law enforcement so that it could assist them in the arrest or prosecution | ||
| of anybody involved in these protests? | ||
| Absolutely not. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| Well, I'll just say this for everybody who's not a fan of you. | ||
| Yeah, they can believe what they want to believe. | ||
| If they want to believe you're an informant, that's their... I'm okay with that. | ||
| Is there anything else you could tell us more about the DOD or the trafficking case? | ||
| Because that seems something that... The DOD was... I basically did security cameras and I did security assessments and I would do it for, you know, military bases, Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and those companies. | ||
| And I also did it for retail stores, large retail stores like Macy's. | ||
| Um, so that wasn't, I mean, that's not here nor there. | ||
| And then the human trafficking ring did come from Mexico. | ||
| Uh, they were trafficking women, right? | ||
| Uh, it was a sex trade and you know, guilty. | ||
| I gave him that. | ||
| And if people like, like Tim said, I, I've been dealing with this for about a year. | ||
| I don't care if somebody loves me or hates me for that story. | ||
| I'm going to say my truth. | ||
| And if you accept it, you accept it. | ||
| If you don't, you don't. | ||
| That's not my problem. | ||
| You said you helped the FBI bust a ring of human traffickers, but you feel guilty for having done that? | ||
| Or you feel like people are going to say, hey, bad on you for helping the FBI? | ||
| I mean, I'm not going to tell you I'm proud of it either. | ||
| I think that's a good thing you did. | ||
| I mean, I'm not going to tell you I'm proud of it or I feel guilty for it, but I am going to tell you, this is my truth. | ||
| And either you accept it or you don't. | ||
| Let's talk about where people get suspicious. | ||
| So, what was it, January 4th? | ||
| January 4th. | ||
| You got stopped and arrested in D.C.? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| So what happened? | ||
| Um, so to know what happened January 4th, you got to go back to December 12th. | ||
| On December 12th, there was a banner that was burnt, a BLM banner, um, that came off of a church, which I didn't know it came off a church. | ||
| And on December 13th, the Metropolitan Police Department and the FBI Washington field office, uh, put some pictures up of Proud Boys that weren't even in the area. | ||
| And said we're looking for these individuals because we're investigating a hate crime Now if people don't know even if it's a misdemeanor if there's a hate crime modifier that could put you years in jail I don't know if you guys heard the the person that pulled down the rainbow flag and burned it. | ||
| They gave me 15 years Okay, so the very next day on my podcast live I admitted to burning that banner and And also on my parlor, I admitted to burning it. | ||
| There was a warrant out for my arrest shortly after that. | ||
| I knew going into DC that I'd be arrested. | ||
| I knew it. | ||
| That's why I flew January 4th, because DC is a no bail state. | ||
| I'd be let out on January 5th, and then I can go watch the president speak. | ||
| At that time, obviously, remember, we didn't know that the Capitol was going to be breached | ||
| or anything like that. | ||
| We just wanted to have a good time and see the president speak and get trashed, like we | ||
| usually do. | ||
| So I flew into DC. | ||
| My number one mistake is I put, I sell magazines, laser engraved magazines on my website and I did bring two empty magazines, not pistols, like a lot of people have accused me of. | ||
| I get arrested. | ||
| They didn't know about the magazines. | ||
| I have a simple, under $500 misdemeanor destruction of property. | ||
| I leave DC, DC, DCA, Ronald Reagan, and they wait till, they were following me the moment that I got out of the gate of the airport. | ||
| After you landed? | ||
| After I landed. | ||
| Where did you land? | ||
| In DCA, in Reagan. | ||
| And I got in an Uber and I was driving into DC and I mean, they came to get me like I was Noriega for a misdemeanor. | ||
| Again, they didn't know anything about the magazines, even though the magazines by themselves aren't really dangerous. | ||
| The whole they had an whole SRT team ARs pointing at the uber There was a there was a news camera the crazy part about this and I swear to you there was a news camera full-size news camera pointing at At this everything that was going on. | ||
| I haven't seen that footage yet But um, what's it CNN or I don't know. | ||
| Okay, I don't know. | ||
| I I don't doubt it, CNN, because you saw the Stone story. | ||
| When they came to get Stone, CNN was magically in the corner of his house. | ||
| He lives on a dead end street, by the way, at that time. | ||
| And I think what they wanted to do is two things. | ||
| I think what they wanted to do is send a message to anybody that was coming to town that day. | ||
| And the second thing that they were trying to do is I think they were trying to take me out of the equation because I'll tell you this. | ||
| If I was on the ground in D.C. | ||
| on January 6th, Proud Boys wouldn't have been arrested. | ||
| I wouldn't let any of them go inside. | ||
| I would have seen it from a mile away. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I would have seen him. | |
| Didn't the Oath Keepers guy say the same thing? | ||
| Like he told them not to go in and they went in anyway? | ||
| I don't know much about like the Oath Keepers case. | ||
| I haven't read his latest indictment. | ||
| I know that Stewart was on like Capitol grounds when that happened. | ||
| Do you think he's a fed? | ||
| Well, they hit him with if they're hitting a fed with seditious conspiracy charges. | ||
| So that he can plead the fifth and won't testify because the defense teams wanted these guys to testify in their defense and now they won't. | ||
| In the J6 committee or you're talking for the cases? | ||
| For these cases, one of the things that people are concerned with is they have this guy's communications for a year, they don't charge him. | ||
| And I don't know if it was him specifically, but there's been other cases where as soon as the defense says, like, we want this person to testify in our defense, they go, oh, we're charging him and now he pleads the fifth. | ||
| Tim, I find it weird. | ||
| But I've been on the end where people have called me a fed for the past year. | ||
| Like right now? | ||
| Yeah, probably on your live chat right now. | ||
| Luke and I were called feds endlessly back... Luke probably still gets called a fed all the time. | ||
| I've been on that side for a year, so I can't tell you if he is or isn't. | ||
| I haven't really looked into it much. | ||
| But I could tell you that everybody gets called a fed at some point. | ||
| And it's inevitable. | ||
| And I think it's by design. | ||
| You know, you see like COINTELPRO, you know, how do you America is not going to die by murder. | ||
| America is going to die by suicide. | ||
| Now, put that in a microscope and put it into groups. | ||
| Groups like the Proud Boys aren't going to die because because of anything but internal turmoil. | ||
| And we've we've we've had those we've had internal turmoil from from the beginning. | ||
| So we're used to it. | ||
| We're a completely different group. | ||
| But You guys hear that wind coming through? | ||
| Yeah, I hear that. | ||
| Is that rain? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It sounds awesome, though. | ||
| I think it's rain. | ||
| It's soothing. | ||
| Oh, you're a fan. | ||
| I was like, what was that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Getting heated. | |
| But anyway, you know, one of the reasons people think that you're a fad is that they feel like you got pulled out. | ||
| They stopped you from being there on January 6th to make sure you were out of the fray and not involved in any of it. | ||
| You're in jail conveniently, so you have a perfect alibi. | ||
| I understand that concern. | ||
| I get it. | ||
| And it is a really good argument. | ||
| Oh, they pulled you out so their asset wouldn't be there. | ||
| But then, like, a judge gives me five months for pleading out to a misdemeanor. | ||
| They give me max sentence. | ||
| I'm currently on probation. | ||
| I got to do three years probation on it. | ||
| I'm not going to say anything on live right now, but, you know, anybody that was there on December 12th knows what happened. | ||
| And I just think that it's meant to divide us. | ||
| It's meant we're very united right now, but they're trying to divide us. | ||
| They're trying to make us fight with each other. | ||
| They're trying to cause us internal turmoil. | ||
| And I think now is not the time. | ||
| Again, I I'm just going to say my story if people accept that they do. | ||
| But I'm speaking in general. | ||
| I think that we need to get together and we need to focus because we're going to lose everything. | ||
| Is jail, like, is isolation, like, mind-breaking? | ||
| Is it, like, psychosis-inducing? | ||
| If you're, and I'm not going to say if you're a weak-minded individual, like, anybody could be broken. | ||
| I'll tell you, it was, and I was only there for a short time. | ||
| I don't want to sound like I'm complaining, because some of these guys have been there for over a year, you know? | ||
| But I was there for five months short. | ||
| The first The first two weeks was extremely difficult because it was straight isolation. | ||
| You know, I come straight from the street. | ||
| I'm a very social person. | ||
| I'm around my family all the time. | ||
| And they put me in a six by four. | ||
| And they lock you in for 23 hours a day. | ||
| And at the beginning I was considered high profile. | ||
| So they have me on like this Hannibal Lecter program. | ||
| So when they let me out for an hour, they don't let me out with anybody else. | ||
| I would walk the track, which is an indoor track with no, no windows. | ||
| I'd walk the track alone. | ||
| And it reminds me of that meme. | ||
| You seen that meme of, uh, of, um, uh, damn it. | ||
| What's that guy from Columbia? | ||
| Uh, the drug Lord. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Escobar. | ||
| Have you seen those Escobar memes where he's just sitting on like the bench? | ||
| He has his hand. | ||
| That's what it reminded me of because I'm like, damn, I must look like a freaking crazy person walking around here. | ||
| But it was the only exercise I'd got. | ||
| But I continued through that isolation for the next three months. | ||
| After the two weeks, I calmed down a little bit. | ||
| I had my books. | ||
| I was reading nonstop. | ||
| And, uh, you know, we're putting, I was in there with some of the J6 defendants and we're putting in grievances. | ||
| And shortly after that, marshals came in, did an inspection, found the place unlivable. | ||
| What was it like? | ||
| Like toilets were backing up and spilling all over or something? | ||
| I mean, there's a lot of things I could go on. | ||
| I could go on like two hours just about that alone. | ||
| But it starts off with like medical, right? | ||
| Overtreatment, undertreatment. | ||
| It started out, my first experience is like some guy was having some type of medical issue where he passed out next to like my cell, right? | ||
| It took them 20 minutes to come pick up this guy and he was unresponsive. | ||
| I don't know what happened to this guy. | ||
| Um, I know that I was, uh, I had problems sleeping when the doctor came by and I'm like, Hey, I have a problem sleeping. | ||
| And the next day they come with like a little thing with like five different pills. | ||
| They're like, you have anxiety. | ||
| I'm like, you know what? | ||
| I'm just not going to take this. | ||
| There was three people that OD'd in my unit within 24 hours. | ||
| From the medicine they gave him? | ||
| Well, yes, because they would smoke. | ||
| It was crazy. | ||
| They'd smoke like some type of pill and then they'd mix it with like K2. | ||
| And then the more severe things were, you know, your water would be turned off for three days. | ||
| You couldn't flush the toilet. | ||
| You couldn't use the sink. | ||
| There was no hot water for anything except for a shower. | ||
| There was multiple times where like people would flood and there's like this crap there's little crap shit in the water about an inch and you're it's it's flooded inside your cell and they leave it in there for like two days. | ||
| They wouldn't let you out, you know, because it's flooded. | ||
| They wouldn't let you out. | ||
| They'd cut off your water and then they try to give you water in bags and there was like 24 hours that you wouldn't get one of those little bags and when you get it, you know, you're like... | ||
| Drinking it up. | ||
| Abuses from the guards were prevalent, especially with the J6 protesters while I was in there. | ||
| I mean, attorney-client privilege doesn't exist. | ||
| They denied me from seeing my attorney multiple times, and one of the times that they did, they put me in a hallway. | ||
| Right? | ||
| With two guards next to us, no walls in between us. | ||
| There was no sense of privacy. | ||
| You know, and we're talking about, you know, I'm being sued. | ||
| It's a war of attrition. | ||
| They put me in jail. | ||
| The J6 committee subpoenas me. | ||
| I wasn't in, I wasn't even in D.C. | ||
| at the time. | ||
| I'm being sued by members of Congress. | ||
| I'm being sued by Capitol Police. | ||
| I'm being sued by the D.C. | ||
| government. | ||
| I'm being sued by a church. | ||
| For what? | ||
| So, well, for January 6. | ||
| But I wasn't there. | ||
| I'm sorry. | ||
| I wasn't there. | ||
| The church that's suing me isn't, doesn't even, wasn't the church that the banner was burned from. | ||
| It's another church somewhere else. | ||
| I don't even know where this church is. | ||
| So what they're trying to do is they're trying to break me down. | ||
| They're trying to expose me as an FBI informant. | ||
| So my own guys turn on me. | ||
| Uh, they're trying to hit me financially, which they already have a long time ago. | ||
| So they could sue me and be like, you owe us a hundred billion dollars. | ||
| And I'll be like, cool. | ||
| I'll send you like some shirts. | ||
| Because literally, I'm broke. | ||
| Was there an effort? | ||
| You just mentioned a little bit that they tried to make you look like an informant. | ||
| Is there more that you could tell us about that? | ||
| I think what they did is they got those three portions of the story I made earlier, the contracting for the DoD, the stuff from 2012. | ||
| How is that released? | ||
| Because that usually, especially when it comes to like confidential informants, that stuff usually isn't released, right? | ||
| That's the other thing that's crazy is that that's not really supposed to be released but... Like who released that and how did that get out there? | ||
| His name is Aram Rauston with Reuters and he released a story and he mixed in a whole bunch of things in there just to kind of like give it some spunk. | ||
| I honestly believe right now Aram Rosten is, they're leaking information from the J6 committee to Aram Rosten at the time, but that's a whole other ballgame. | ||
| But what we're seeing here is they wanted to de-platform you because it's things that we were talking about years ago. | ||
| They want to de-finance you. | ||
| They want to sue you, take everything that you got. | ||
| They want to put you in a cage and eventually what they want is they want you dead. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| And I'm not exaggerating here. | ||
| That's the road that we're going on. | ||
| I always think about how they would try and get, like, they'd try and torture someone to admit that they lied right before they execute them. | ||
| Back in, like, really horrible totalitarian governments. | ||
| They'd, like, get them on stage in front of everyone. | ||
| They'd be like, now tell them all that you were lying the whole time. | ||
| They're like, no, no. | ||
| And they're beating them. | ||
| Tell them, tell them. | ||
| And then they finally say, OK, I was lying. | ||
| They're like, good. | ||
| And then they kill them. | ||
| That's the tactic that they're using with some of these J6 defendants. | ||
| What they're doing is these people, some of these people aren't accused with being violent, right? | ||
| Some of these kids aren't accused of like stealing or breaking anything. | ||
| No assaults, no nothing. | ||
| You know, they just walked in and out and they've been in jail for a year and basically what they're trying to do and they keep them in that 23 and 1 lockdown for a year. | ||
| You know, I don't care how strong you are. | ||
| They put you in solitary confinement and not locked down for long enough. | ||
| Your mind's not going to come all... You're going to be fried. | ||
| That's torture. | ||
| That's what happened to Chelsea Manning. | ||
| That's what's happening to Julian Assange, who should not be in jail right now, who hasn't been convicted of any crime. | ||
| He's facing charges here in the United States, which is crazy. | ||
| But correct me if I'm wrong. | ||
| It was the CI, Confidential Informant Information. | ||
| Is that correct? | ||
| That is correct. | ||
| I remember seeing that and wondering this is supposed to be classified this is supposed to be kept away from the general public this is not supposed to be known there are no public releases about this kind of information because it's it's held secretly so people don't know the kind of means and techniques of Was it the Federal Bureau of Investigation, or was it the local police department? | ||
| FBI. | ||
| FBI. | ||
| So they don't usually release that information, especially with such a high-profile case, because it actually puts the case in jeopardy, doesn't it? | ||
| Well, here's the kicker. | ||
| On that article, I don't know if that's what you're watching right now. | ||
| On that article, this journalist... I've never heard this. | ||
| I've never heard this before. | ||
| Besides being able to get these records, He was able to get the judge to give comment on the case and the ex-prosecutor on the case to give comment on what happened on those proceedings. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So I think that that's why I honestly think that that story was timed to cause turmoil. | ||
| I think that's what they wanted to do. | ||
| Now you made a statement about your truth. | ||
| What is your truth? | ||
| On what? | ||
| You made a statement before when we were talking about this saying, this is my truth. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Specifically with, you know, all the accusations. | ||
| In short, I just kind of wanted to ask you an open-ended, generalized question. | ||
| What is your truth? | ||
| My truth is... I've... I can't cuss here. | ||
| I've screwed up many times in my life. | ||
| I'm not a perfect person. | ||
| Some people put me on this pedestal as this person that you should follow. | ||
| I'm not the most moral person in the world. | ||
| And I've screwed up. | ||
| I'm not proud of what happened in 2012, but I did it. | ||
| But the truth is, now, there is no truth to, hey, you're working with the feds, right? | ||
| And again, that story just doesn't bother me anymore. | ||
| I love my bros. | ||
| I love my family. | ||
| Before jail, if I was on this show, I'd tell you I love my country. | ||
| I can't tell you that anymore. | ||
| I can't. | ||
| My priorities have changed since I've gone in. | ||
| I love the Constitution, but I don't love this fascist thing. | ||
| I don't. | ||
| I can't. | ||
| I can't tell you. | ||
| My priorities were my God, my family, my country. | ||
| Now it's my God, my family, my tribe. | ||
| And to me, what that tribe is, is people that do believe in that document, people that do want to better this country. | ||
| And to me, those people are more important than a set of borders. | ||
| What are some of the names of the people that are in prison right now, these January 6th? | ||
| Are there any names? | ||
| There's actually many names. | ||
| There's Charles Donahoe. | ||
| Right. | ||
| We call them Yut Yut. | ||
| Zachary Rell. | ||
| Ethan Nordeen, also known as Rufio. | ||
| Joe Biggs. | ||
| We have, dude, we have like 26 guys that are arrested. | ||
| And, you know, can I say, can I say, hey, did they deserve something? | ||
| I'm like, well, you trespassed. | ||
| Fine. | ||
| Hit them with trespassing. | ||
| But that's not what they're getting hit with. | ||
| That's why I'm fighting for. | ||
| Well, hold on a minute. | ||
| Is it trespassing if the police open the door? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| No, I agree with that. | ||
| I'm just telling you like... Let me just say, because we had an incident recently where a guy trespassed on the property. | ||
| And the reason it was trespassing is because we have two very large signs. | ||
| Very large signs. | ||
| One of them is no trespassing. | ||
| This is private property. | ||
| Everything you do is being filmed. | ||
| If you keep going, another sign, a smaller one, says you are now trespassing on private property. | ||
| When we talked to the police, they said if someone crosses a barricade in any way after having trespassed, it's burglary in Maryland. | ||
| If you don't have any notification or signs, no crime has been committed. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So when it came to the Capitol, a lot of people keep saying trespassing. | ||
| And I think it's because we're like, you know, they entered this property. | ||
| But the Capitol is public property. | ||
| My understanding is that many of these buildings, I'm not sure about the Capitol specifically, are open to the public in most cases. | ||
| And for a lot of these people, you can watch video of the police opening up the door and saying, I agree with your right to protest. | ||
| So these people who walked in and were looking around and like smiling and waving, they were not informed. | ||
| They weren't allowed to be there. | ||
| There were no signs. | ||
| There's no warning. | ||
| The first thing that has to happen is, excuse me, you are trespassing during an official proceeding. | ||
| You need to leave. | ||
| Oh, sorry about that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Bye-bye. | |
| But they didn't do that. | ||
| So I'm wondering if this is even trespassing. | ||
| Well, here's the thing. | ||
| So, and the reason why I say is not convicted of trespassing. | ||
| I think that that should be like, The most serious of charges to somebody that didn't assault or break anything, right? | ||
| But in legalese, the trespassing charge that they're charged with isn't even applicable because it goes a step further to the no signs thing. | ||
| So the building in the law, it states that the building must be secured by Secret Service. | ||
| The version of trespassing that they're hit with and the building's not secured by Secret Service. | ||
| The building's secured by Capitol Police. | ||
| But what I'm fighting at, I'm not saying they have to fight that misdemeanor if they get it, but we're way past that. | ||
| They're using this archaic law called obstructing an official proceeding because it's the only felony that they could be charged with. | ||
| The only felony that they could be charged with is obstructing an official proceeding and it doesn't apply in this setting because it's meant for like witness tampering. | ||
| It's not meant for like protesting and obstructing an official proceeding at all. | ||
| And as a matter of fact, what was happening January 6 isn't an official proceeding at all. | ||
| It is a ceremonial proceeding. | ||
| So if January 6, let's say everybody got COVID. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And nobody showed up to the January 6th. | ||
| The certification of the election still happens. | ||
| Joe Biden is still inaugurated president in 2020. | ||
| Congress has no say in how the states vote for a candidate. | ||
| Voting, that's a whole other issue. | ||
| I'm not going to get into that. | ||
| But when we're talking about the certification, it's not an official proceeding, but they're using it because it's like the only thing that this government's like, this government's like, we got to give them decades. | ||
| And what do they do? | ||
| They keep them in the gulag, right? | ||
| They keep them in the gulag for a year locked up and they're like, well, you're facing decades. | ||
| And then the first prosecutor that comes in and gives them a deal and it's like, well, you know what? | ||
| We're going to give you six or seven years. | ||
| Like you're stuck in this hole and you're like, okay, you know what? | ||
| I got to take this deal. | ||
| Gotta take this deal and it makes you like it makes you not want to fight these cases Right because you're scared they broke you and it's so easy to get to that point. | ||
| How can we help those people? | ||
| I Know that there's there's a couple of what I'll do is if you guys follow my telegram channel, I'll post it But I know that there's some channels on telegram that are constantly posting Fundraisers ways to contact these people something that helped me. | ||
| That was great and I got a lot of mail. | ||
| I got to read a lot of mail People send me books. | ||
| I got to read a lot of books And then obviously the fundraisers if we if anybody can help any of the J sixers period By fundraising there's also as far as the proud boys go There's a channel on telegram called at free the proud boys and it has like the contact information on how you can write to them And things like that Like a lot of those people I imagine they have families and they're out of work now so the family's suffering financially as a result. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And then maybe people can donate to their families directly or something? | ||
| That's another thing that's on there is like a lot of family funds where you can go ahead and And, you know, there's Amazon lists, too. | ||
| We gotta go to Super Chat, so if you haven't already, smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, and become a member at TimCast.com if you wanna help support the work we do and all of our journalists. | ||
| And get your Super Chats in, we're gonna read a bunch of what you got. | ||
| Alright, we got Marcus A. Lundy says, listen to Will of the People yesterday, and I have to ask, where the hell did that voice come from? | ||
| 1010, download it and we'll listen again. | ||
| Thank you very much, good sir! | ||
| Yeah, for those that may be new to the show, we used to do jam sessions on Friday nights. | ||
| I have been playing music since I was, like, seven years old. | ||
| Drums, guitar, vocals. | ||
| We're working on a bunch of new songs. | ||
| We got Ian jamming on a lot of these songs. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| We're working with Pete Parada, formerly of The Offspring, doing drums for a bunch of our songs. | ||
| Really, really... | ||
| It is an honor and a privilege, and hopefully we can get Mr. Phil Labonte of All That Remains. | ||
| He expressed interest in collaborating on a song. | ||
| That would be amazing. | ||
| And if you haven't already, you can check out Will of the People on YouTube. | ||
| It's a video on this channel, and it is my music video about the cycle of revenge, violence, and revolution. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Let's see what we got. | ||
| Andre says, Give Send Go crashed from all the traffic. | ||
| Honk! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| All right. | ||
| Honk, honk. | ||
| All right, all right. | ||
| Chance says, Tim, you should build culture by making a 2A show like Demo Ranch. | ||
| I'd pay extra for it and would let you use my arsenal to get it started. | ||
| We've actually discussed doing that, but we want to do more than just, you know, hey, we're on a ranch and we're going to blow stuff up, because it's been done. | ||
| Is there something better than that? | ||
| Well, I mean... I like the idea. | ||
| Yeah, I do like that idea. | ||
| You could. | ||
| Maybe do it in slow motion. | ||
| You've been outvoted. | ||
| You gotta figure out your angle, you know what I mean? | ||
| Do it from above, maybe, that angle. | ||
| Top down. | ||
| Maybe we can find a way to, uh... We gotta check the laws on this one. | ||
| But, you know, drone work with, like, you know, demolition drones or something. | ||
| If we could, like, zoom in really fast into an explosion in slow motion, that'd be cool. | ||
| And then back out really fast in slow motion. | ||
| One of the things we did on one of the vlogs was when we were at the shooting range, after we fired, we had a camera on the side of one of the guns, one of the rifles, and then we had the drone, after we were done, we had the drone fly forward like it was, you know, like it was the bullet, so we just like, boom, with the drone. | ||
| Stuff like that. | ||
| So, you know, we'll see, we'll see. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Quagsire says, I've been thinking about that Starship Troopers quote for the past week with all the news about the convoy. | ||
| When you said it, my face lit up. | ||
| Honk! | ||
| Honk honk. | ||
| Which quote? | ||
| Uh, when Doogie Howser puts his hand on the alien and says, it's afraid! | ||
| And they're like, yeah! | ||
| What a truly amazing piece of literature. | ||
| The Starship Troopers. | ||
| Have you guys watched it? | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Two days ago. | ||
| The movie doesn't do the book justice, my understanding is. | ||
| Carl Benjamin did a breakdown of like the book is actually a lot better. | ||
| The guy who made the movie wanted to make them fascists? | ||
| I've been thinking about it because I was telling you guys how I kill the stink bugs. | ||
| I throw them outside into their cold death. | ||
| And it makes me think about the bugs from Starship Troopers and how they weren't evil or good, they were just bugs. | ||
| Just living. | ||
| And the humans made them out to seem evil because the humans were the fascists. | ||
| No, because the aliens launched a preemptive attack. | ||
| So we were told, yeah. | ||
| No, I mean... Well, I think the humans were the preemptive attackers. | ||
| In the story, it's... So you're getting the Starship Trooper story from an omniscient perspective. | ||
| The bugs attacked Earth first, and then Earth responded. | ||
| And the guy who made the movie tried to make it seem like the humans were the fascists. | ||
| Like, what are you talking about? | ||
| They blew up Buenos Aires, dude. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Good story, good story, huh? | ||
| Couple of authoritarian governments going on. | ||
| Service guarantees citizenship. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| All right, Brandon Tom says, I wonder which charity GoFundMe will donate to? | ||
| BLM? | ||
| Planned Parenthood? | ||
| Maybe a little bit of both. | ||
| Yeah, maybe to act blue. | ||
| How about that? | ||
| Thanks for all your money. | ||
| All right, let's see what we got. | ||
| Christopher Chavez says, so I've just watched YouTube not allow me to call out one of their paid shills. | ||
| I tried posting a reply three times and each time I went to check the reply wasn't there. | ||
| That has never happened to me before. | ||
| You know, I feel like I run a risk by even mentioning this, but we've done it before and I'll do it again. | ||
| There's something, what is it called? | ||
| The 50 Cent Army? | ||
| And what they do is, in China, like whenever someone, a regular citizen posts pro-CCP propaganda, they get 50 cents or something like that. | ||
| We did an episode where I mentioned this, and like right, so there's a delay. | ||
| When we talk about a minute, 30 seconds to a minute after I say it, it appears on YouTube. | ||
| There's that lag, right? | ||
| And so, during the show, we kept getting a drop-off. | ||
| Like the show would pause, and then jump. | ||
| And then after the show, people were like, oh, they were weird skips, you know, at certain points. | ||
| And then it turns out whenever we mentioned the 50 Cent Army, the show would drop for a few seconds. | ||
| I'm watching it right now, seeing if it's dropping, but I don't think it is. | ||
| I mean, maybe it was just a coincidence. | ||
| You know, maybe it's a coincidence and we're all just paranoid or whatever, but I thought that was funny. | ||
| So, yeah, I'm also, wasn't it also that you couldn't post some kind of like offensive Chinese slur? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm not sure. | |
| Yeah, there was a slur for like a Chinese communist and like YouTube would delete it if you posted it. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| I'm pretty... I'm wondering, like, did China already win the war? | ||
| You know? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I'm encouraged when people say what a paper tiger that government is. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Does that say Benison, not you, baby? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| Does what say what? | ||
| Sorry, my eyes are bad. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I would hang out at Walmart after school, but I feel like there are times at 8am in Tim's kitchen where you're going on about the Fed, but Tim is like, I just wanted to know if you want syrup on your pancakes. | ||
| Tim's lives on the other side of the house now. | ||
| We used to pop in and say hi to each other once in a while during the day. | ||
| But you sleep until 6 p.m. | ||
| I think it's about to change. | ||
| I'm pretty excited about it. | ||
| With what? | ||
| Just my schedule. | ||
| I want to be up during the day and sleeping at night. | ||
| No more sleeping at night. | ||
| Let's get a little more active. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| All right, let's grab some Super Chats. | ||
| Heywood says they are creating extremists one blue-collar worker at a time. | ||
| Maybe that's what they want. | ||
| They want to beat down regular people to the point where they can use them as propaganda. | ||
| That's why I always say non-violent civil disobedience works. | ||
| Violence does not work. | ||
| We are not in the 1600s or 1700s anymore, or even the 1800s. | ||
| And people say, yeah, but Antifa gets away with it. | ||
| Yes, because they get funding from the state. | ||
| Literally, Illinois Democratic Administration was giving BLM money. | ||
| It was from the state. | ||
| These people are on the side of the fascists. | ||
| So let me make something very, very simple for all you guys. | ||
| Pulling up in your car and honking your horn is destroying the establishment. | ||
| They're screaming and freaking out. | ||
| And it is the most amazing, joyful, positive, and peaceful protest. | ||
| You see, nonviolent civil disobedience is the key. | ||
| They don't know what to do. | ||
| They're like, well, they're violent. | ||
| And it's like a granny is handing out muffins. | ||
| And they're like, but they're racist. | ||
| And then there's like one guy with a Confederate flag. | ||
| Nonviolent civil disobedience is working. | ||
| And that one guy gets kicked out of the protest. | ||
| It's working. And they don't know what to do about it. | ||
| I wouldn't say the confederate flag is not a racist thing. | ||
| Is it being twisted to be racist nowadays? | ||
| I mean, yeah, but it's the confederate flag. It's the battle flag. | ||
| And I'm not gonna nitpick when someone's like, I think that's a racist flag. | ||
| I'll be like, well, I get it, you know, I understand. | ||
| That's not the point. | ||
| The point is, the truckers aren't racist, they're regular working class people. | ||
| The point is, they're not violent, they're peaceful, and the establishment doesn't know what to do. | ||
| Yeah, like this guy said, they're making, what do they say, radical truckers one day at a time or something? | ||
| Blue collar workers. | ||
| I don't think that this established order understands that it's creating the collateral damage of blue-collar extremism. | ||
| Like, same as bombing the Middle East and killing parents and the kids grow up and become extremists. | ||
| They weren't intending it. | ||
| They want more January 6th. | ||
| They want regular working people to lose their minds so they can justify banning people from Congress and seizing control. | ||
| But when people just stand around and dance, they don't know what to do. | ||
| If you silence somebody, if you de-finance them, if you take everything from them, and then you demonize them, do you think that that person's gonna rationalize, or do you think that that person's gonna be radicalized? | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| Like, people aren't gonna go, oh, okay, you know what? | ||
| You're silencing me, you're calling me names, I'm broke. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| Maybe I'm wrong. | ||
| That's not gonna happen. | ||
| I don't get that. | ||
| It's not gonna happen. | ||
| It's a conversation I've had with a really good friend of mine about platforming people. | ||
| He's like, you're directly contributing to the rise of the fascist state of the United States by platforming people like you, for instance, because of our conversation. | ||
| But first of all, he doesn't know who you are. | ||
| He's just heard your name. | ||
| He heard the media reports. | ||
| And like, dude, if you try and stifle people, especially people you don't agree with, and force them underground, they don't go away. | ||
| And the ideology doesn't disappear. | ||
| Yeah, it goes into the corner and festers and rots and grows. | ||
| I think the real reason why people hate me is I'm really, really good at making fun of people. | ||
| I got a knack for it. | ||
| I don't think people understand who you are enough to hate you. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| It's true of Rogan. | ||
| These people have not watched any of his episodes. | ||
| No. | ||
| Let's read some more. | ||
| We got Flick Off says, If you guys get Dan Crenshaw on, please ask him about being one of Klaus Schwab's young global leaders. | ||
| Would also like to hear Luke's opinion on it. | ||
| I actually have a statement on this. | ||
| First thing is, we were supposed to have Dan yesterday, but they had to vote, and so it went all night. | ||
| But he did reschedule. | ||
| I'm grateful that he wants to come on the show. | ||
| I look forward to talking to him. | ||
| And he already responded to me about this. | ||
| He said that he had nothing to do, I'm paraphrasing, but basically the World Economic Forum creates their own editorial list like Forbes 30 under 30. | ||
| They decide to just highlight people they think are prominent figures and he had nothing to do with it. | ||
| And now because they put his name on it, everyone thinks he's involved with the World Economic Forum, which he's not. | ||
| Well, people are concerned because there's a video going around right now that I tweeted myself from Klaus Schwab in 2017 literally bragging about how he claims to penetrate the Canadian government, the Argentinian government, the French government, and how half of the cabinet members of the Trudeau government are from the World Economic Forum. | ||
| So, because of that, people are, you know, triggered and concerned about people being associated with it. | ||
| And that's why I was really looking forward to that conversation. | ||
| I think, you know, Dan should either disavow or publicly say that he does not want to be a part of that list and ask them to take him off. | ||
| So when I was talking to him to ask him to come on the show, he mentioned that. | ||
| He's like, dude, I had nothing to do with that. | ||
| That's great. | ||
| Let him make a statement and saying, I don't agree with the World Economic Forum. | ||
| I don't agree with their vision. | ||
| This is what I personally think. | ||
| And if that would have happened, I think that would have been very important, and I think a lot of people would have respected that, and especially if they could get an honest point of view of where he stands on this very powerful organization that has mobilized the corporate world, the government world, towards creating a Great Reset. | ||
| What's his ideas about the Great Reset? | ||
| What's his ideas about the 2030 vision? | ||
| Would love to hear about it, and, you know, hopefully those conversations happen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
How do you feel about Klaus penetrating Dude, I would have loved to be here if Dan was here. | |
| Creepiest. | ||
| Dude, this, this Austrian, old Austrian authoric, authorocrat, this corporatist, like it's such a Bond villain. | ||
| I know it comes up a lot that Klaus Schwab is like, doesn't he look like a Bond villain? | ||
| Looks like him. | ||
| Sounds like him. | ||
| He's like Dr. Evil. | ||
| He's trying to corporatize the global government. | ||
| I mean, it's, it's what a Bond villain would do. | ||
| It's incredible. | ||
| And yes, I am peeling an orange right now in the middle of Super Chats. | ||
| I'm so glad. | ||
| Luke brought all these oranges. | ||
| And I got, I think I got the last... Oranges? | ||
| Oranges. | ||
| I brought all the oranges. | ||
| He imported them from like... Florida. | ||
| Specifically. | ||
| I handpicked them from Florida, brought them here for everyone, and I get attacked because of it. | ||
| Do you see the hospitality here? | ||
| I'm from Florida, and this orange is from Idaho. | ||
| Oh, it's large size of that thing. | ||
| GMO. | ||
| That's probably genetically. | ||
| You guys ever see, you ever see these blood oranges, man? | ||
| You know, I'm going to stop doing is I'm going to try and stop doing is eating non organic food, like genetically modified food or stuff with antibiotics and stuff. | ||
| You're not going to eat that. | ||
| I'm going to try and avoid it at all costs. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Good luck. | |
| Especially animal products that have been injected with hormones. | ||
| Let's read some more Super Chats, though. | ||
| I want to make sure we're thinking of people. | ||
| Rick Hunter says, Enrique has been disavowed. | ||
| Take your colors off. | ||
| Oh, great. | ||
| Have you been disavowed? | ||
| I have not been disavowed. | ||
| I've been the opposite of disavowed. | ||
| But I'm actually surprised that in the Super Chats I've only gotten one of those comments. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Just Revenant says, Hey Luke, is Alex Jones Bill Hicks? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Does he get mad about that? | |
| He loves it. | ||
| Yeah, all the time. | ||
| He's like, it's crazy. | ||
| We had him here and I asked him and I accidentally said, Bill Burr. | ||
| It's like, are you Bill Burr? | ||
| He's like, what? | ||
| No. | ||
| And then I was like, oh, Bill Hicks. | ||
| I cannot expose such big truths. | ||
| Does he say it's a conspiracy theory? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Oh, you know what, Alex admits it. | ||
| Conspiracy theory. | ||
| No. | ||
| Alex is... I think people need to understand a lot of his show is, like, sensationalized. | ||
| And I don't mean that he's not... I'm not saying, like, he... I think he's putting on a show, is what I mean to say. | ||
| And when you actually talk to him, he can very calmly break you down, like, break down these stories and walk from point A to point B for you. | ||
| But I gotta admit, when he goes on Joe Rogan and he's like, Human-animal hybrids! | ||
| And they're building these 5G towers and... | ||
| You know, when he came on the show, the first time he was telling us about Klaus Schwab is the first time I ever heard about Klaus Schwab. | ||
| And he also mentioned Klaus and another guy together. | ||
| And I don't remember the other guy's name, but we got to figure that out because he was just as intertwined as Klaus in all this. | ||
| It was more than just Klaus. | ||
| I don't want to pin it on him. | ||
| Alex comes on the show with Phil Labonte, and I'm like, let's talk about immigration. | ||
| And then within 30 seconds, Alex is like, so when Thomas Jefferson was running the Illuminati, All right, George Washington's writing a letter. | ||
| And then I'm like, Phil, help. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And he goes, yeah, what are you doing? | |
| It's supposed to be helping control this. | ||
| It was fun, though. | ||
| He's really smart. | ||
| He is. | ||
| He is Alex. | ||
| Very, very like he remembers dates, numbers, people, dates of births. | ||
| The guy's a walkie encyclopedia. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I love him. | |
| Yeah, he's great. | ||
| Alright, let's read some Super Chats. | ||
| We got Vision Quest. | ||
| He says, spending our Friday evening watching TimCast IRL on one TV and Viva Fry on another. | ||
| Thank you both for doing what you do so well. | ||
| Could use another honest journalist up there, Luke. | ||
| Ask him which one he likes more. | ||
| I was banned from Canada for like 10 years. | ||
| I don't have a good relationship with the Canadians. | ||
| 10 years? | ||
| Yeah, I got banned 10 years for false pretenses. | ||
| I was arrested falsely by Mayor Bloomberg in New York City. | ||
| All the charges were dropped, but as soon as I came up to the border, the Canadian Mounties stopped me, interrogated me, went through all of my devices, went through all of my clothing, every little piece of thing. | ||
| They tore everything apart, had dogs all over my place. | ||
| And then they told me that I was a criminal, I was arrested, and I have a criminal record according to the FBI, which I never had. | ||
| I've been arrested a number of times, never found guilty, arrested seven times, always charges dropped because it was always for the crimes of journalism and asking people hard questions, and they said I was convicted when I never was. | ||
| So you were banned for 10 years? | ||
| Banned for 10 years. | ||
| They were like, don't come back to Canada for 10 years. | ||
| Then I got a lawyer, I fought it, and I was actually able to go to Canada within the seventh year. | ||
| That's actually super cute. | ||
| I've been banned from Canada for life and I've never stepped foot in the country. | ||
| Canada designated the Proud Boys a domestic terrorist group over there. | ||
| And the Canadian Proud Boys never even go out to, like, rallies. | ||
| So I'm banned completely for life. | ||
| I can't never go there, and I've never been there. | ||
| Not that I want to go there, although I do want to go support these truckers. | ||
| Yeah, Canada's the shit. | ||
| Let's read some more sweet shits. | ||
| We got Zo Rourke. | ||
| He says, a Joe fan here. | ||
| I'm losing faith in him. | ||
| After CNN defamed him, he wouldn't sue them because Jeff was his friend. | ||
| Now we are missing more episodes. | ||
| I'm starting to think he isn't on the side of freedom. | ||
| I completely disagree with that. | ||
| I certainly think Joe is one of the most important individuals fighting for free thought and freedom, and he defended his podcast with Malone and Peter McCullough, and I respect that greatly. | ||
| And let's be real, like, when Joe had me on the show the first and second times, he helped lift me up tremendously. | ||
| So, whatever you think about what he's doing now, whatever you want to be critical of him, absolutely. | ||
| That's why we'll still talk about what's going on with this show. | ||
| That's why I'll still question what's happening with this show. | ||
| No free passes, but Joe has been such an amazing net positive for freedom in this country. | ||
| I just think, you gotta just... | ||
| His show is fantastic. | ||
| It's one of the most important things. | ||
| Keep the faith, man. | ||
| Joe's a good dude. | ||
| You got to judge people by the fruit of their labors. | ||
| And when you look at the fruit produced by Joe Rogan, holy cow, there's been a lot of counter narratives. | ||
| There's been a lot of information that the very powerful people are trying to keep away from you. | ||
| You got a crazy obsession with fruits. | ||
| Look at the size of that thing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I bear many fruits. | ||
| Rogan didn't say he didn't sue CNN because he was friends with Zucker. | ||
| He mentioned that he was friends with Zucker while he was talking about it. | ||
| I think he just he never said why he wasn't going to sue them or why he didn't. | ||
| Honestly, I think Joe's trying to de-escalate to a great degree, but I also think he's a bit obstinate. | ||
| I don't think he's the kind of guy who just wants to lie. | ||
| So when Sanjay Gupta comes on, he's like, no, dude, you guys lied about me. | ||
| But when Sanjay Gupta wrote that article and said, I was afraid Joe Rogan was gonna jump the table and throttle my neck, when I brought that up to Joe, he was like, ah, he's just trying to be funny, man. | ||
| And I'm like, I don't give him the benefit of the doubt the way you do. | ||
| You know, I just... Sure, maybe there's some humor in that, but... You know, the reason that plays well to the left is because they believe it. | ||
| They believe you're the guy who's... What did Ethan Klein say? | ||
| That he's, like, hopped up on human growth hormone and stuff like that? | ||
| Like... | ||
| They're insulting you. | ||
| So, Joe's not stupid. | ||
| I think he knows all of this. | ||
| But I think he's trying to avoid escalating a conflict with them. | ||
| I think Joe, when he put out that statement and he was like, yeah, I'm sorry for pissing you guys off, I'll do better next time. | ||
| Very, very well played. | ||
| Because it's hard to look like the bad guy when you're being nice and making jokes and saying you're a fan of Neil Young and all that. | ||
| And then even The Rock apparently comes out and he's like, rock on, brother. | ||
| So you want it you want to be the nice guy. | ||
| There was a there was a hit piece that was written about him. | ||
| And this guy was like, I started watching several episodes and I came across one with Joe Rogan and Tim pool, and he refers to me in like, I forgot what he said about me he said that I was like, Yeah, you'll think of it. | ||
| extremists, but I forgot what word he used basically that I'm It's like passionate but in a negative way, whatever he was | ||
| saying that I'm like partisan and you know hyper focused and | ||
| You know to a degree like You'll think of it I know what you're talking about, but he | ||
| was he was basically saying that I was fervent, you know That I was like, and Joe was much more like, well, calm down there, buddy. | ||
| And I think that's how he plays it. | ||
| He wants to have on people like Josh Zeps. | ||
| That's the guy who claimed that the internment camps in Australia were just international arrival bungalows. | ||
| And then they started taking people from their homes and bringing them to there, which makes it an internment camp, at the very least, like the most modest definition. | ||
| So Joe will have him on and just be like, okay, you know, he made me look bad and, you know, I love the guy, so thank you. | ||
| And he's very, very polite about it. | ||
| I think that's his play. | ||
| Yeah, I get the whole wanting to get along with everybody and wanting to smooth it over and kind of be like the penultimate diplomat. | ||
| But also if you see somebody torturing somebody else, like if it's your brother that's getting tortured, like you kind of got to not be a diplomat anymore. | ||
| Now it's time to take action. | ||
| Well, Joe did end up defending me on two occasions from that guy's insults, though. | ||
| So it's like, you know, look, I think Joe's a good dude. | ||
| I'm eternally grateful for him having me on his show because I gained like 300,000 subscribers the first time I went on his show. | ||
| It was nuts. | ||
| Then he invites me on to meet with Jack Dorsey and I told him on the phone. | ||
| That's great. | ||
| I was like, Joe, I'll do this show, but I'm like a little baby bird and you're kicking me out of the nest here, buddy. | ||
| I was like, I've got like a hundred, I got like 180,000 subscribers on YouTube and you're asking me to go have a conversation with the CEO and the chief legal for one of the biggest companies in the world. | ||
| And he was like, you're a smart guy, dude, you can do this. | ||
| And I was like, I was like, I'm not scared. | ||
| You kicked ass on that one. | ||
| I was like, all right, let's do it. | ||
| I didn't prepare. | ||
| I was just like, I don't know, man, I'm a guy, I'm gonna sit in a chair, I'm gonna talk about stuff. | ||
| But dude, the dude's, he's a good guy. | ||
| And I'll tell you this, when we all got sick, Joe covered the cost for us on our treatments. | ||
| And he was just like, he's like, I appreciate you coming to my show, man. | ||
| So look, I'm not gonna, I'm never going to be someone who's going to give free | ||
| passes to anybody. | ||
| I want to know why those episodes got pulled down because I think his show is | ||
| so important. | ||
| I think he's a good dude. | ||
| If Joe has some kind of privacy issue or business issue and he can't tell me, I'm | ||
| not gonna, I'm not gonna cry or complain about it. | ||
| I trust him. | ||
| I trust that he's gonna do the right thing. | ||
| And I think he's proven that by having Dr. Malone on his show. | ||
| So, just... Hopefully, we have the faith. | ||
| We remain critical when we need to be. | ||
| But Joe is one of the good ones, man. | ||
| Keep the faith. | ||
| He's got an amazing show and he's a good dude. | ||
| And he took care of us. | ||
| Yeah, man. | ||
| So thank you for that. | ||
| Seriously. | ||
| All right. | ||
| And we got this one from Kuai Matters. | ||
| Eastern Europe knows about Joe Rogan and anyone not bought and anyone that isn't mentally ill sees that as sees this as a power grab. | ||
| And it always starts with the US. | ||
| Greetings from beyond the Iron Curtain. | ||
| Well, hello there. | ||
| The FCB says FedCast IRL. | ||
| Somebody in the chat said, Luke is a Fed. | ||
| Oh, double Fed. | ||
| Dude, you guys got to pump those numbers up on all that. | ||
| It's two to one right now. | ||
| It's embarrassing. | ||
| You know what I get? | ||
| I get tons of people saying like, how does Tim fund this show? | ||
| This is insane. | ||
| I've seen a bunch of comments where they're like, how does Tim have that building? | ||
| This doesn't make sense. | ||
| His channel is not that big. | ||
| And I'm like, I don't think people realize how business works. | ||
| And we have a website and we have memberships and we sell merch and we, you know, all that stuff. | ||
| I always get asked, how do you, how do you make all this money to fly everywhere? | ||
| I'm like, what do you think? | ||
| I don't work for a living. | ||
| Like, plane tickets can be $70 if you fly regional and small planes. | ||
| Not only that, I live in MIA, which is like the cheapest airport in the country. | ||
| I go to Colorado round trip for $60. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| Yeah, my flight here was like $100. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So great. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Miklos says, Tim, shadow banning is a thing. | ||
| If I wouldn't be subbed and notified, I wouldn't get your content. | ||
| And that's true. | ||
| And you know what's really frustrating? | ||
| Several times on this show, I've been like, oh, I want to pull up this Instagram post from Sargon, Carl Benjamin. | ||
| And I go on Instagram and I type in his name and it doesn't come up. | ||
| And I'm like, I follow the guy. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And Instagram doesn't show me his account. | ||
| And then I have to like manually go to a browser and type it in. | ||
| Because if you... | ||
| Like, I go to search, I type in Carl Benjamin, I type in his username, CarlBenjamin100, it won't come up. | ||
| I'm like, how am I supposed to go to his profile? | ||
| So I go to my own follower list, my own following list, and I scroll through until I find the account because I'm following it, and then I go in. | ||
| Yo, Shadow Bannings, it's real and it's insane. | ||
| Alright, we'll grab a couple more. | ||
| Fleshy Javelin, good name, says, Tim, I was a National Guardsman in D.C. | ||
| from the start of COVID all through the riots and the other side's incident, and I would love to talk about it. | ||
| Send an email to spintheufo at gmail.com. | ||
| I'd be interested in that one. | ||
| Lydia will look for the email from Fleshy Javelin. | ||
| Sounds great. | ||
| I'll look forward to that. | ||
| Also, with the super chat before, it's not just shadowbatting. | ||
| It's also Instagram saying, don't follow this person. | ||
| He spreads dangerous misinformation, as they did to me a few weeks ago. | ||
| And they're doing it now to imagine noise. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't know what Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube looks like anymore. | ||
| I have no idea. | ||
| And I haven't known for three years. | ||
| Man. | ||
| It's a good thing. | ||
| You're not missing out. | ||
| Roadrunner says Ian rolled higher on the die today. | ||
| Be safe, Enrique. | ||
| I brought my dice up here just to... Wait, what does that mean? | ||
| So, yeah, there's this philosophy that when I... Have you ever played Dungeons & Dragons? | ||
| No. | ||
| When you play Dungeons & Dragons, you make an action, I'm gonna attack that goblin, you roll a 20-sided die, and the higher you get, the better. | ||
| If you get a 20, it's a critical success. | ||
| You hit no matter what. | ||
| If you get a 1, it's a critical failure. | ||
| You miss no matter what. | ||
| So when I talk on the show, I tend to either roll a 20 with my ideas or a one. | ||
| Because it's what will happen is I'll swing for the fences. | ||
| And if it's if I see that it's not going, I just give up. | ||
| He's the wild card. | ||
| Keep swinging. | ||
| I'll keep swinging, Luke. | ||
| I love you, baby. | ||
| Sometimes he's like, we'll be talking about, you know, the politics of Ukraine and the invasion. | ||
| And then Ian will be like, Did you ever did you ever put your finger in a cow's mouth? | ||
| Because I'll be thinking about Ukraine from the 70s where a guy a farmer was talking about the cows and but then we're all laughing like what but then sometimes we'll be talking about COVID and stuff and then he'll roll a 20 and be like how do we balance people's freedoms with more serious diseases like Ebola when you have a very high mortality rate? | ||
| Ian to me to me You always roll a 20. | ||
|

|
I love your glasses, by the way. | |
| Thank you. | ||
| I have obsidian dice, that's what I wanted to show off. | ||
| Alright, we'll read a couple more here. | ||
| We got Justice says, I found Tim Pool through Joe Rogan and many other people that are relevant now. | ||
| No, Luke, I puke! | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Damn right. | ||
| Yeah, man. | ||
| Joe's gonna have a lasting impact because he has so many people on his show and ends up Like, it's kind of crazy that these ideas of freedom and inquiry are spreading because of this one show is, you know, shouting everybody out. | ||
| I want to not put too much pressure on Joe because his show is really the guests. | ||
| I mean, he's a big part of it, obviously he's a big part of it, but his guests, man. | ||
| The knowledge that comes out of that show is from the guests and he just kind of lets it come out of them. | ||
| It is, but... | ||
| You listen to his show, you know he's talking, and he has these ideas, and he asks these questions, and he's created that centralized hub for all of this stuff. | ||
| That's why it works. | ||
| We also can't just depend on him for everything, and we need to decentralize this whole independent media sphere, so we only aren't just focusing on him. | ||
| He's great, he's amazing, but he's also a big target. | ||
| We need a lot more targets out there to make sure that he doesn't get taken down. | ||
| We just got to keep doing the work we do. | ||
| We got to keep growing. | ||
| We got to keep getting more support over at TimCast.com from everybody and help us get bigger and bigger. | ||
| And, you know, we have a different kind of format here. | ||
| It's not too dissimilar, though, but we have various guests on. | ||
| And shout out right now to Viva Fry, obviously on the ground reporting live from the trucker protest. | ||
| He also has a YouTube channel where he does legal analysis. | ||
| So channels like Viva are awesome. | ||
| We had him on the show. | ||
| Super cool. | ||
| What were you saying? | ||
| I didn't say anything. | ||
| That was a weird noise. | ||
| Yeah, my phone made a weird noise. | ||
| Yeah, I started talking to it. | ||
| Is it the radio? | ||
|

|
Creepy! | |

| If, uh, you could just go to your browser, hit t.me slash noble leader. | ||
| Is that the one that works? | ||
| Or if you've got your Telegram app, just hit the at sign noble leader. | ||
| And that is my channel where you could keep up to date on my podcasts and news about the J six political prisoners. | ||
| Yep, definitely nothing is safe on the internet, but Telegram is one of the safest places, sort of out there, still somewhat of an okay place to talk. | ||
| I think my channel is at news, the number 4, a change. | ||
| I think that's it, I'm not sure. | ||

| Bye everyone. | ||
| I'm Ian Crossland. | ||
| Follow me at iancrossland.net if you want to link into my socials, Enrique. | ||
| I'm in. | ||
| I'm in. | ||
| And one more thing that I'd like to say, I'm really, really upset that I was only called to Fed twice. | ||
| There was more in the chat. | ||
| There was much more in the chat. | ||
| Don't worry. | ||
| I was just going to say, every time I make a thumbnail with Joe Rogan in it, first of all, it does incredibly well because people really care about Joe Rogan. | ||
| And second of all, I'm just reminded of how important he is. | ||
| And I never thought that I'd live in a world where a former MMA fighter, UFC commentator, and comedian is one of the most important voices we have. | ||
| But he is, just because he does ask questions. | ||
| And he gives platform to all kinds of different voices. | ||
| I really appreciate you. | ||
| He never fought MMA, though. | ||
| No, no. | ||
| No, he didn't. | ||
| He fought in the MMA? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, he fought. | |
| He was gonna fight Wesley Snipes. | ||
| He never fought in, uh... He was going to do that for, like, a celebrity match. | ||
| No, but he did fight MMA. | ||
| He didn't fight in the UFC. | ||
| It was Taekwondo and stuff. | ||
| I misplayed. | ||
| I meant UFC. | ||
| He never fought in the UFC. | ||
| I just want to say sort of, you know, it gets to a certain point where I'm like, dude, are we really talking about Joe | ||
| again? | ||
| Yeah, kickboxing. | ||
| It's no, I mean, this story won't stop. | ||
| And it's really weird, you know, especially knowing Joe. | ||
| I'm like, I don't want to keep talking about. | ||
| Yeah, I don't want to put too much pressure on him. | ||
| It's not about pressure on him. | ||
| It's just like, but I thought about it. | ||
| And with all of these news stories constantly getting bigger, I realized I think Joe is actually more important, | ||
| influential and powerful than even I realized. | ||
| It feels weird to talk about this dude who does a podcast until you realize it's probably the biggest show in the world. | ||
| And you've got the president of Brazil talking about it. | ||
| It would be like me saying, Oh, I don't want to report on CNN because, you know, I know people who work there or something. | ||
| It's like, no, we got to talk about it. | ||
| Well, we've said it before that Joe Rogan does dictate the news cycle, and he definitely does. | ||
| And I'm very happy to see it. | ||
| To me, it definitely does look like the last death rattle of a dying media conglomerate. | ||
| Anyway, you guys can follow me on Twitter at Sour Patchlets and Minds.com as well. | ||
| Thanks so much for hanging out. | ||
| Go to TimCast.com, become a member. | ||
| Enjoy your weekend, ladies and gentlemen. | ||

| And we will see you all at YouTube.com slash CastCastle in the vlog tomorrow morning. | ||
| And then we'll be back with the show on Monday. | ||
| Thanks for hanging out. |
