| 2,000 marines and sailors are being deployed to Israeli waters, and they're being prepared for a potential deployment into the country. | ||
| At the same time, Janet Yellen reassures all of us, yes, the United States can afford two wars. | ||
| And don't worry, when Joe Biden was asked on 60 Minutes, he also confirmed, come on, we're the most powerful nation in the history, not just the world, the history of the world. | ||
| We can handle it. | ||
| They're gearing up for a major escalation of war. | ||
| And the argument is that by sending the troops in, it will prevent war. | ||
| But let's be real. | ||
| If the U.S. | ||
| actually deploys ground forces into Israel, wow. | ||
| Talk about a dramatic escalation at a time. | ||
| We've already been seeing attacks from Syria and Israel, Lebanon and Israel, back and forth. | ||
| There's now threats from Lindsey Graham. | ||
| Lindsey Graham says that we should bomb Iran with or without evidence. | ||
| I hope you guys are ready for the war that they're about to start. | ||
| Pains me to say. | ||
| We'll talk about that plus a whole bunch of other, uh, man. | ||
| It's just, it's, it's, it's wild. | ||
|

|
It's wild. | |
| Today's a crazy day. | ||
| We had this horrible incident in, I think it was Brussels, right? | ||
| Where, uh, a man attacked, uh, I just, it's a tragedy. | ||
| He killed people. | ||
| I believe they died, right? | ||
| Just want to make sure I'm really clear on this one. | ||
| Two and then three. | ||
| Yeah, and it was revenge over another kid who was Muslim who was attacked, and it's just getting crazy out there, so we're gonna talk about all that. | ||
| But before we do, there's one brand that doesn't mind sponsoring content that is war-related, and that's us! | ||
| Casper Coffee! | ||
| We sponsor ourselves for this reason. | ||
| Look, I get it, man. | ||
| If you're selling toothpaste, do you really want your toothpaste commercial to be right next to someone being like, several people died in war today? | ||
| Eh, probably not, but we sponsor ourselves. | ||

Cool. | |
| We got Hannah-Claire Brimelow hanging out. | ||
| Hey, I'm Hannah-Claire Brimelow. | ||
| I'm a writer for TimCast.com. | ||
| You can follow at TimCastNews on X and Instagram. | ||
| And I just think that Janet Yellen is pulling a girl math moment when she says we can afford two whores. | ||
| I think that's so... Girl math? | ||
| This is a thing we're living in. | ||
| This is like AOC. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Justified. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| spending money in a way that doesn't actually make sense. | ||
| This is what Janet Yellen is doing. | ||
| She's giving this very female episode of Timcast a horrible way to start. | ||
| Anyways, Libby's here, of course. | ||
| Hey, Hannah Clare. | ||
| Hey, Josie. | ||
| Hey, Tim. | ||

He's just gone. | |
| Gotta go think about the 51st state. | ||
| He was meditating and then I just saw him lift up into the sky and then I was like, well, I'll call Libby and see if she's around. | ||
| Yeah, this checks out. | ||
| Here I am. | ||
| Ian's just gone. | ||
| Welcome, Libby. | ||
| Thanks. | ||

That's right. | |
| Thanks for hanging out, Libby. | ||
| We got Serge pressing the buttons. | ||
| Yeah, I'm here. | ||
| Boca boca. | ||
| Let's win in the semis, guys. | ||
| Anyways, let's start the show. | ||
| Here's a story from CNN. | ||
| U.S. | ||
| Marine Rapid Response Force Moving Toward Israel As Pentagon Strengthens Military Posture In Region. | ||
| I love how they're very careful with their headline. | ||
| Let's be real, this is a deployment. | ||
| But here's how they phrase it. | ||
| After you read the headline, moving towards, what does that mean? | ||
| A U.S. | ||
| Marine Rapid Response Force is headed to the waters off the coast of Israel, and the Pentagon is preparing American troops for a potential deployment to the country, escalating the U.S.' 's show of force in the region as it works to prevent the conflict between Israel and Hamas from widening any further. | ||
| A defense official familiar with the planning said the rapid response force consisting of 2,000 Marines and sailors is being sent. | ||
| It will join a growing number of U.S. | ||
| warships and forces converging on Israel as the U.S. | ||
| seeks to send a message of deterrence to Iran and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah. | ||
| On Sunday evening, U.S. | ||
| Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin ordered that roughly 2,000 troops prepare for a potential deployment to Israel to help with tasks like medical and logistical support, multiple defense officials says. | ||
| In other words, the U.S. | ||
| is entering the war. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| No, we're just entering near the war. | ||
| We're just moving towards the war. | ||
| I hate that phrasing. | ||
| I think that's so lame. | ||
| Well, we did that in Kiev, too, because we have special forces in Kiev hanging out. | ||
| And we haven't declared a war since World War II, so this is just more run-of-the-mill. | ||
| Well, we don't have a house speaker, so we can't really declare much of anything at all. | ||
| Oh, golly. | ||
| What timing. | ||
| Maybe that's good then, though. | ||
| That's the silver lining to that situation. | ||
| Well, the only issue, though, is that, of course, Biden can do pretty much whatever he wants, which is what we're seeing play out right now. | ||
| But it's not really Biden. | ||
| I mean, Biden's staffers can do whatever they want. | ||
| It kind of makes you wonder about the timing because they kept not working on Sunday or not working Saturday, not working Sunday, not working Monday. | ||
| And it's like they were putting off this vote. | ||
| And now all of a sudden there are Marines headed to Israel without without Congress even in session. | ||
| Like, I mean, that's amazing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That is pretty upsetting, actually. | ||
| So here's what happens. | ||
| I'm not saying this is definitive, absolute, absolutely going to happen. | ||
| But how do you, as the president, get the U.S. | ||
| into a war without a declaration from Congress? | ||
| Well, for the most part, they've just done it. | ||
| They just send the troops. | ||
| They send U.S. | ||
| Marines and warships into the Mediterranean. | ||
| They send it into Israeli waters. | ||
| And then what happens when Hezbollah attacks? | ||
| Now you don't need a declaration. | ||
| Now it's, ah, we're being fired upon. | ||
| We have to react. | ||
| Our ships that we put there strategically are now under attack. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| It's crazy how that happens. | ||
| What's wild is, remember when they said Trump was going to start World War III? | ||
| And how Biden came in and said, now the adults are in charge. | ||
| And then he proceeded to destroy everything, piece by piece. | ||
| But how long until they're like, well, actually, this is all Trump's fault in the first place anyways. | ||
| If Trump had never been president... Did they already say that? | ||
| I feel like they always say it, but there'll be some specific statement from Biden that's like, ultimately, this is all Trump's fault, even though I have been in office for basically the last year. | ||
| Hamas would not have escalated if not for Donald Trump doing nothing. | ||
| I don't know how he'll come up with that. | ||
| Well, Hamas has been planning this attack for two years, which is basically when Biden took office, they started planning this attack. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Because when Trump was in office, he was strong enough. | ||
| He had an interesting quote today. | ||
| He was speaking in Iowa and he said he said that his personality had kept us out of war. | ||
| That's not wrong. | ||
| It's entirely right. | ||
| I mean, as I've said about Trump in the past, like the thing about Trump is he appears to be an absolute crazy man. | ||
| And you stay away from a crazy man. | ||
| A crazy man will do crazy things. | ||
| So you kind of back off. | ||
| You let him do his whole crazy thing. | ||
| And that's a big part of what made him so effective is that he was unpredictable. | ||
| You never quite knew what kind of thing he was going to do. | ||
| Right down to the Abraham Accords, which were actually pretty genius because they were these bilateral agreements. | ||
| Well, that's kind of the opposite. | ||
| I mean, it's not just that Trump threatened to nuke Moscow and... What else did he threaten to... Moscow and... Was it Iran? | ||
| It was Iran as well. | ||
| China? | ||
| Which city was it? | ||
| He said he was gonna... There was two cities. | ||
| Nuke the shit out of one, right? | ||
| He has that famous quote where he said he would nuke Moscow and Beijing. | ||
| He also had that threat that he did on Twitter at the time about like, do not come at me Iran or something like you will experience like a hell you've never seen before. | ||
| But I think, I think for Russia, for instance, they have no reason to invade Ukraine when Donald Trump is saying, we're getting our troops out of the Middle East. | ||
| This is ridiculous. | ||
| You know, what are we here for? | ||
| Oil. | ||
| And so that was a big part of the conflict is the US basically trying to force Russia's energy business into the gutter. | ||
| And instead of competing on the open market, when Donald Trump starts saying, look, we're not going to go to war over this. | ||
| We're going to do energy our way. | ||
| We're going to start drilling for oil in the United States. | ||
| We've got Alaska. | ||
| We could do all these things. | ||
| And he did. | ||
| And gas prices go down. | ||
| Now, gas prices went down dramatically. | ||
| People failed to mention this because of COVID, because demand was in the gutter and had to give oil away. | ||
| It was crazy. | ||
| But it still was relatively cheap even before this. | ||
| And so Russia's incentive for war is minimal. | ||
| Then you get the Abraham Accords. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because there's an economic incentive now from the West. | ||
| I mean, this is brilliant stuff. | ||
| But what happens then is the left is arguing. | ||
| That this conflict between Hamas and Israel is Trump's fault because of the Abraham Accords, because it marginalized and sidelined Hamas and their only reaction was going to be military conflict. | ||
| And I'll push back on that and say, if Donald Trump's policies were still in place, then the incentives of Saudi Arabia and Qatar and the Emirates, et cetera, would be to align with Israel because their deal is being jeopardized by the actions of Hamas. | ||
| Instead, you get Joe Biden and his administration that doesn't care for these negotiations and wants war. | ||
| Well, and that's exactly what happened, right? | ||
| You have Saudi Arabia, which was doing negotiations with Israel. | ||
| They were cooling some tensions. | ||
| And now that has totally been scuttled as a result of the Hamas attack. | ||
| So I think that's been that's been pretty effective. | ||
| And if if what the Biden administration wants is permanent war, which it does seem like that is what they're interested in, then it would make sense that they would continue to help escalate the situation. | ||
| I mean, it always I can't help but think of Well, months before Russia invaded Ukraine, there was that phone call between Putin and Biden where Putin said, if you promise that they are not going to join NATO, we will not invade Ukraine. | ||
| And I just can only imagine, you know, I don't know what Biden said in response other than, no, we're not going to do that. | ||
| But I can only imagine these two personalities were not going to have a productive conversation. | ||
| The relationship between the U.S. | ||
| and Russia was the strongest, at least in most recent years, when Donald Trump was in office because Putin respects him more than he respects Biden. | ||
| Yeah, you also had Kamala Harris coming out saying that Ukraine was going to join NATO at some point. | ||
| You have all of these overtures from the EU to bring Ukraine in. | ||
| And Ukraine, doesn't Ukraine like mean borderlands essentially? | ||
| So if you take Ukraine away, then suddenly Europe and NATO and the EU are right on the doorstep of Russia and that's a threat to them. | ||
| Like there needs to be, they want this barrier. | ||
| Right, we act like their concern that the NATO border is being expanded directly next to them is sort of absurd when it's not. | ||
| I mean, you can disagree with all kinds of other things, but this idea that this was one of the contingencies for not invading and that Biden just said, no, I'm against this and whatever, you know, obviously the Biden administration did not take steps that were necessary to de-escalate a situation. | ||
| Now that we see that, apparently, Yellen is like, yes, we can afford another war. | ||
| Of course, they want another war because who among them makes money? | ||
| Probably all of them. | ||
| We also have this tweet from someone, I don't know who, but it's under the Biden Twitter account, X account, saying, an attack on one group of us is an attack on all of us. | ||
| In America, hate will not prevail. | ||
| Venom and violence against any one community cannot stand and will not be the story of our time. | ||
| Who is Corine Jean-Pierre even talking about there? | ||
| Talking about and talking to. | ||
| I think it should be illegal for anyone but the president to post from the president's account. | ||
| I completely agree. | ||
| It should say, like, POTUS little staffers or something. | ||
| No, that should be illegal. | ||
| That should be the account. | ||
| POTUS staffers. | ||
| Right, but this account should only be the president due to the fact that it's public record as statements of the president. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I feel like this is a statement from the Biden administration writ large. | ||
| It's not Biden himself. | ||
| But that's true of the White House. | ||
| I mean, the White House puts out statements all the time that are attributed to Joe Biden, even though he is unlikely to have written them. | ||
| Yeah, that's a fair point. | ||
| In theory, he would have read them and signed off on them, though. | ||
| I mean, I don't think that's actually what happens. | ||
| Do you think that he does that to all the briefings? | ||
| No, I don't even think this man reads any of the briefings, but that's because I don't trust him. | ||
| It should be a legal requirement that a president sign off on any statement attributed to the president for the sake of public records. | ||
| Yeah, he should sign off on it before he takes the documents and puts them in his garage. | ||
| Yeah, that means if they want to write something for Twitter for X, then they have to get approval from him and he has to sign it. | ||
| He has to sign off on it. | ||
| Yeah, I think that makes a lot of sense. | ||
| He has to have his own tweets to have a I'm Joe Biden and I approve this message. | ||
| But this is this is basically more war posturing, right? | ||
| For sure. | ||
| The attack on one group is an attack on all of us. | ||
| So here we go. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And they're gonna say you're either with us or the terrorists, etc. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Textbook. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But I don't think that Joe Biden is in a position to argue with his own staff, right? | ||
| I don't think, I personally think Joe Biden would be happy to go to war, but on top of that, he's not checking his own Twitter, he's probably not reading the briefings, I mean, he is not in a position to challenge whichever staffer saying, no, Mr. President, this is a good line. | ||
| I mean, even last week when we had him say, I never thought I'd be able to confirm, he had that weird statement about the photos of the children, and then it was like, the White House then fact-checked him? | ||
| This didn't happen. | ||
| Which is not a great look. | ||
| I mean, Biden wants to go to war. | ||
| His administration, his staffers underneath have their own reasons for wanting to go to war. | ||
| And either way, it's going to hurt the American people. | ||
| Well, sure. | ||
| That's what war does. | ||
| I mean, unless we like ramp up our munitions and actually start spending a lot of money. | ||
| And creating a better war machine and then getting rich off that like we've done countless times before. | ||
| That's also effective. | ||
| I'm kind of noticing a pattern with how the way we withdrew from Afghanistan and then went to Ukraine, kind of noticing like they're kind of losing steam with the Ukraine thing, but now Israel's like the next big thing. | ||
| So they're like, yeah, you know, it's kind of going to take a back seat to Israel. | ||
| It's like the eye of Sauron. | ||
| Take a look at this, Sal. | ||
| This just popped up right now on the website for the article we had. | ||
| U.S. | ||
| Secretary of State Blinken speaks after meeting with Israeli war cabinet for more than seven hours. | ||
| Watch on CNN. | ||
| We're not watching CNN, but that's the breaking news right now. | ||
| He's speaking. | ||
| I wonder what he'll be saying. | ||
| We'll pick up those updates. | ||
| In a minute, after they come out, you know, outside of the video. | ||
| But, uh, I think we're dangerously close to World War 3, and I think it's, uh... I mean, World War 3, what does it even mean? | ||
| I think, at some point within the next 12 months, there's going to be a dramatic and massive mobilization. | ||
| I mean, and it's not even a bold prediction, to say something like that. | ||
| We're looking at 2,000 marines and sailors deploying to Israeli waters, and there's already warships there. | ||
| So, like, if this escalates, Wow, who could have seen that coming? | ||
| Iran is to Russia as Israel is to the United States, in my opinion. | ||
| So I feel like if if like what Lindsey Graham really wants to do this, like he is just so ready. | ||
| But if they if we do something to Iran that's going to get Russia involved, it would be my fear. | ||
| And that would just be the escalation. | ||
| And then if you have China and Taiwan happening kind of over there and a separate thing going on, we're primed for escalations everywhere, everywhere. | ||
| I wonder about how this could play out. | ||
| I mean, the U.S. | ||
| is still the most powerful military force. | ||
| I mean, how many aircraft carriers do we have? | ||
| We've got, I think, 11 active strike groups and most other countries have one. | ||
| So we're pretty dang powerful as a nation, because it's probably more than just a nation, considering. | ||
| But I wonder, I mean, does Russia and China enter this Middle Eastern conflict under the guise of the U.S. | ||
| is going to cause nuclear war by, you know, and mass casualties and we have to intervene? | ||
| What if Russia and China decide to prevent U.S. | ||
| involvement in the conflict entirely? | ||
| They deploy troops into Syria and I don't know about Iran, but perhaps. | ||
| I don't know if that would be the most strategic location. | ||
| Well, wasn't wasn't Israel taking shots at Syria today in Damascus? | ||
| They were shooting at the Iran. | ||
| It's been ongoing non-stop. | ||
| In Syria? | ||
| Israeli strikes on Syria have been happening for a decade. | ||
| Well, sure. | ||
| But I mean, just today. | ||
| There was something specific you saw today. | ||
| And Lebanon is targeting civilian communities in Israel. | ||
| I mean, this is. | ||
| Israel evacuated some of the north, you know. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Biden is going to visit Israel next week. | ||
| Now for all those who are sitting at home being like, I don't care about war. | ||
| I don't know anything about this stuff. | ||
| Okay, well, you know, your gas prices are going to quadruple. | ||
| Six, seven dollar gas. | ||
| A lot of these people are too young to even remember after 9-11 what happened with the economy and what happened with the gas prices and, you know, like. | ||
| I don't remember that. | ||
| that. Yeah. You don't. I wonder how the US is going to handle this. No, not because I'm young. I just | ||
| didn't have a car. I only started buying gas three years ago. I have questions about the people who | ||
| are currently serving as the Marines who will be deployed to this region. What are your questions? | ||
| Well, you know, I have to imagine they're on the younger side, likely Gen Z. I doubt they're | ||
| sending a bunch of 40 year olds, you know, so millennials like mid to late thirties now on | ||
| average, with some younger millennials down into like, I think what you could be late twenties and | ||
| All right, or no, you can yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So I think it's mostly going to be Gen Z. So who? | ||
| Who's the kind of person who wants to enlist right now? | ||
| Someone who wants to do a lot of TikTok dances. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Big on drag queens. | ||
| I've heard this argument right now. | ||
| Well, do you guys know that you can get cosmetic surgeries if you enlist? | ||
| That's so fun. | ||
| That's so cool. | ||
| Yeah, they'll cut your dick off for you. | ||
| Yeah, they'll do anything. | ||
| Someone was like saying if you tell the Air Force that you and your wife are in a dispute because she needs a boob job, the Air Force will be like, well, to help your marriage, this is... I don't know if that's true at all. | ||
| Could you imagine telling, like, Roman soldiers, join the army and we can cut your dick off for you? | ||
| I mean, I think the... I remember this when I was, you know, graduating high school. | ||
| Student loan debt was so crazy that I knew a lot of people who were not interested in military service but said, but if I enlist, I could potentially get it paid for through the GI and I need to go to college to be able to see it. | ||
| And we've seen that argument sort of collapse the last couple of years. | ||
| Enrollment's down. | ||
| We know enlistment in the military service is down. | ||
| So, ultimately, the very few benefits to enlisting in the army or in any sort of military branch are not as persuasive as they once were. | ||
| My question is, are they going to try and sell it as a rallying point? | ||
| I mean, after 9-11, we did see a lot of an increase in military enlistment. | ||
| People saw it as their national duty, and I don't think people feel that sort of patriotic pride right now, especially, you know, do you want to be enlisted under Biden? | ||
| Probably not. | ||
| Definitely not. | ||
| They've demonized nationalism completely. | ||
| That's why they have a hiring crisis because a lot of them would be like, I went to the service because my father served and my grandfather served. | ||
| Well, fear not, everyone, because CBS 8 has given us the fact check that amid the Israel-Hamas war and the deployment of 2,000 additional Marines and sailors into a region and warships, U.S. | ||
| military draft not returning amid Israel-Hamas war. | ||
| Because that's the question everyone had already asked. | ||
| I love this pre-bunk. | ||
| This is what they call it. | ||
| They call it a pre-bunk. | ||
| I'm not kidding. | ||
| Where they put out a fact check before the story actually hits for this reason. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| They're just wondering that if, in case you were wondering, I mean, it makes sense. | ||
| That's the obvious first question. | ||
| If no one is enlisting in the military, partially because no one is qualified to enlist in the military, that's one of the biggest deterrents. | ||
| There are people who would want to, and they just don't meet any of the fitness or mental health requirements. | ||
| So on top of that, we don't have enough people, then the draft is the only way to get around those standards. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| I had read a statistic, and you can't quote me on it, but it was something like 70% of Gen Z wouldn't qualify for the military because everybody is sick and everybody is fat. | ||
| It's sick, fat, and anxious. | ||
| You go to Google. | ||
| And has allergies to weird stuff. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| You go to Google and you search for US military draft and there's just tons of articles making sure everyone knows there will not be a military draft. | ||
| You want to know what that makes me think? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you for that. | |
| That there's definitely a draft. | ||
| That there's definitely going to be a draft. | ||
| But how could there not be? | ||
| This makes me think, this makes me... | ||
| Think that they are going to have one. | ||
| But right now they're telling you, no, no, we're not going to have one. | ||
| But then something huge has to happen where everybody's going to get behind it and say, yeah, like another 9-11. | ||
| And they say, oh, yeah, we need it. | ||
| Has to be worse. | ||
| Has to be worse. | ||
| It does. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely. | |
| At this point. | ||
| Or maybe not. | ||
| With 9-11, the issue was that Americans felt attacked. | ||
| So a bunch of people were like, I've got to do my duty and defend my nation. | ||
| So they enlisted. | ||
| Little did they know they're going to be sent to Iraq and Afghanistan for nation building projects. | ||
| But the people who enlisted and signed up for this, that wasn't completely noble. | ||
| And then you have corrupt powers that beat it, be that exploit, manipulate. | ||
| Well, that was DeSantis. That's when DeSantis signed up. | ||
| Considering that we're in dire straits now militaristically, like recruitment rates are | ||
| really, really low. It may not be it may not be so much about it may just be they're going | ||
| to force people to do it. Right. | ||
| With 9-11, you had people who are willing to do it. | ||
| If something like that happens now, where we got all this reporting about open border and potential terror attacks and the war that's happening in the Middle East, yeah, they might just be like, we have no choice. | ||
| However, there will have to be something 9-11-esque. | ||
| Well it would be like Vietnam remember how I mean there were so many young men who got called up to Vietnam who had no idea what they were doing and ended up just being essentially massacred like that was a pretty horrible situation and because we had a lot of we had weak nationalism at the time and we had a bunch of men called up who didn't know what they were doing and I think that the Young men we have now are probably far less qualified than my father's generation was to go to Vietnam Yeah, I mean they regularly fail basic fitness tests, right? | ||
| I think it's so I I've been talking to some members of special ops military forces for story I'm working on and it's interesting because if you from the anecdotal evidence that I have, you know people who want to be in special force They want to be green berets. | ||
| I want to be Navy SEALs. | ||
| Mm-hmm They tend to be even more elite. | ||
| Those standards have gone up just because of who is electing to be a part of them. | ||
| It's, you know, Division One athletes, it's former professional athletes, people who are in the best shape of lives. | ||
| But just the infantry, which is really what all branches of the military need, these basic levels, those standards are lower and they're regularly missing their recruitment goals. | ||
| I mean, and the military is in a position where they are beginning to sort of I do think that there's a difference, though, as well. | ||
| to make it look like they're not doing as badly as they could as we go into the brink | ||
| of World War Three. I mean, it's not a good position. There is no way they don't end up | ||
| drafting people if they ultimately decide we are at war. | ||
| I do think that there's a difference, though, as well. Like, I think that if the United | ||
| States were attacked, as it was with 9-11, which is a different situation than fighting | ||
| in foreign wars, I think that if there were, you know, there's there has been talk of these | ||
| some, what, five million illegal immigrants who have come into the U.S. since Biden took | ||
| office, that there could be terror cells among them. | ||
| We have seen the the great numbers of single young men entering the country with no real rhyme or reason as to what they could possibly be doing here. | ||
| If we started seeing the kind of suicide bombings or terrorist attacks that Hamas unleashed on Israel in the late 80s and into the 90s, if we started seeing that in the U.S., I think that you would see nationalism go up. | ||
| I think that a lot of young people would be like, I'm going to fight for America because the fight has come to America. | ||
| But I do think that there is a lot less of an appetite to send our children to go fight in foreign wars under this idea that we're protecting democracy when we're watching our own democracy and our own nation fall apart. | ||
| I totally agree. | ||
| I think there would be people who would say, I want to defend America, but I think they would be less likely to enlist and get deployed Far away, they would want to stay close to their families. | ||
| You might see an increase in, like, maybe the National Guard, but even that could be deployed internationally. | ||
| I think people, if we saw an increase in domestic, on the ground, in U.S. | ||
| tax, the desire to protect would be there. | ||
| I just think it would be a deterrent from joining the military. | ||
| And they wouldn't join. | ||
| They'd form a militia. | ||
| Form a militia. | ||
| If we're seeing attacks in the United States. | ||
| You might see people join local law enforcement, but I think the chance that you could be deployed away from your family when you know there's an increase in Well, it would also be hard to join local law enforcement. | ||
| The kind of laws that we've seen enacted against law enforcement officials has been pretty grave in the past several years. | ||
| I mean, the defund the police movement was shockingly effective, not just in actually pulling funds by city council of police departments, but changing the laws across the board. | ||
| We had a report this morning, I came in to work this morning, which I turned on my phone and I was at work. | ||
| But yeah, Ari Hoffman put this report together about this 911 call in Seattle that was made public. | ||
| And on the call, it showed that there was like a domestic abuse situation. | ||
| The guy was beating up this woman. | ||
| She was like trying to get to her kid and protect her kid or whatever. | ||
| He drags her into the car, forces her to drive. | ||
| She's being pursued by police officers and the police officers call off the pursuit because they're like, oh, we're not actually allowed to pursue. | ||
| Unless there's probable cause of something and they're afraid to pursue. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| I think not just Seattle, but in Chicago, I think as well. | ||
| That's what was going on. | ||
| It's like the police officers aren't allowed to give chase after a certain point. | ||
| So the morale has got to be really low and there are And police recruitment is low. | ||
| Police recruitment is low, and that's a big part of it, too. | ||
| Like, in New York City, they have been, you know, cutting funds. | ||
| Mayor Adams has been threatening to cut funds for police officers. | ||
| And kids who are enlisting and thinking about joining a militia, they do have to know their constitution well, because the government, the federal government, does have the right to call up the militias to fight. | ||
| Yes, and if we operate under the traditional sense of militia, that would matter. | ||
| But all that really means is conscription. | ||
| Because militia back in the day wasn't so organized. | ||
| It was just the local men in the area would take up guns and they'd fight if they had to. | ||
| I think what we'd end up seeing is if there were attacks in the United States, people would look to their neighborhood watch or the neighborhood leaders and just be like, tell me where to stand. | ||
| They wouldn't sign any papers or do anything formally, which would make it really difficult for the U.S. | ||
| government. | ||
| Go ahead, Josie. | ||
| I'm sorry. | ||
| No, it's okay. | ||
| So when it comes to war in the Constitution, it's written on a defensive stance. | ||
| So it's Article 4, Section 4, and it says that it's the federal government's duty to protect the states from invasion. | ||
| And I mean, we're in one. | ||
| There's been a declared one, you know. | ||
| That's the only thing it says that would say anything about offense at all. | ||
| That's interesting about protecting states from invasion, because so many states have been invaded by the federal government's policies with this illegal immigration thing. | ||
| I find it perplexing that states aren't standing up for themselves more. | ||
| You have New York City being like, hey, it's too much. | ||
| Well, New York City is like, come help us, federal government, whereas Greg Abbott in Texas is like, I am invoking my right to defend Texas as the governor. | ||
| And then they just cut his head. | ||
| Stop doing that! | ||
| Immediately stop! | ||
| I think that's the craziest thing. | ||
| I mean, we probably all followed it for so long, but with that floating buoy barrier, at first they were like, it's not humanitarian. | ||
| People could drown. | ||
| He's like, yes, we should deter them from swimming and potentially drowning. | ||
| And they're like, we've changed our mind. | ||
| You were supposed to get congressional approval. | ||
| And then he was like, but no, I don't need that. | ||
| I am here to defend Texas. | ||
| And I think that's this weird position the Biden administration is walking in. | ||
| You'll get them, you know, Authorizing through Mayorkas more construction of the border wall and then they immediately walk it back because their policies are hurting the country and they know they have to act because not only is New York suffering but Texas is suffering. | ||
| No one is going to stand by them in this next election cycle if they don't do something. | ||
| On the other hand they said they wouldn't build the wall and so they look like hypocrites because they are. | ||
| They're only sort of building it, and they're building it not in the necessary places, from what I understand. | ||
| They never do anything right. | ||
| So Chicago actually had, they had the residents of Chicago, the black residents, and they were, because I guess they're sending a lot of migrants to Chicago. | ||
| I love that the black residents were like, no, get out of here. | ||
| They're like, we already get the crumbs and you want the crumbs of our crumbs? | ||
| I sort of had this idea when I saw that, when I saw those people standing up in Chicago, I was like, maybe All us Americans can remember that we're all Americans and we're all on the same team and we don't have to like be divided up by these racial segregated ideas like you know black Americans are Americans and you know like white Americans are Americans and well and illegal immigration Latino Americans are Americans and like we're here let's protect our country. | ||
| Can we do that together? | ||
| We used to be a melting pot. | ||
| And the answer is kind of no. | ||
| We can't do that together. | ||
| I mean, the thing is, illegal immigration hurts impoverished communities more because it adds an additional burden to a community that's already struggling. | ||
| So it makes sense to me that people who would feel as though they are disadvantaged would then be like, please close the border. | ||
| Please stop. | ||
| This is not helping us. | ||
| It's just marketed as this thing like, you're so mean and they're just coming here because There is economic turmoil in their country, and ultimately we know that that's not the case. | ||
| Like, in slim cases, people are seeking asylum, but it's not the wide majority that the Biden administration would like it to be. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And then you're destroying Queens with a brutal sex trade. | ||
| I have a proposal. | ||
| We have a story from the post-millennial, and just let me read the title first before my proposal. | ||
| Four Iranian special interest aliens apprehended by border patrol attempting to cross into U.S. | ||
| in October. | ||
| Two Lebanese citizens were also arrested in Eagle Pass last week. | ||
| Alright, new rule. | ||
| If you're going to deploy U.S. | ||
| military forces into a region in conflict, you must lock down your borders. | ||
| Oh, that's a good idea. | ||
| I think it's a great idea. | ||
| Why wouldn't you do that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Why wouldn't you secure your borders even outside of war? | |
| Well, it's like, if you knew that there was turmoil in your neighborhood, you'd probably lock your front door! | ||
| Why are we defending the borders in Ukraine and defending the borders in Israel, but we're not defending our own border? | ||
| No, no, our borders get to stay open because it's okay if our citizens suffer. | ||
| We can't let citizens in other countries suffer, though. | ||
| That would be bad. | ||
| Is that a fan boat? | ||
| Are they coming in on fan boats? | ||
| Have you seen some of the reporting? | ||
| I have them all over. | ||
| How cool would it be if they're coming in like hovercrafts? | ||
| You ever see those that glide over the water like the air pressure and the floats? | ||
| I mean you go to Hilarious and also Sidewinder. | ||
| They're reporting from the Darien Gap. | ||
| It's like these long kayak looking type boats. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What if they were, like, throwing grappling hooks over trees and swinging across the river? | ||
| If that's the case, then let them in. | ||
| Let's go! | ||
| Let them in, if that's the case. | ||
| No! | ||
|
unidentified
|
No! | |
| Close the border! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, but if it's that cool... But it's so cool! | |
| But if they paraglide over the border... Wait, wait, what if they swung from a tree and then, when they released, they did a backflip? | ||
| I think you guys don't understand. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No illegal immigration, no matter how cool the theatrics are. | |
| I also love theatrics, but ultimately, I'm not going to give an exception for the best entry. | ||
| It's the Cirque du Soleil brigade. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's meritocracy, like Tim said, and our country is founded on meritocracy. | |
| So, I mean, it checks out. | ||
| But in all seriousness, our border is porous and busted. | ||
| We're deploying troops to go protect other people's borders. | ||
| And we have potential wartime threats to this country. | ||
| Iranian special interest aliens. | ||
| It's not saying overt terrorists or anything like that. | ||
| Actually, do you know the story, Libby? | ||
| I didn't write it today, you know. | ||
| I didn't write that one. | ||
| You know everything that goes up on Post Millennial every day. | ||
| So here's the point. | ||
| As Lindsey Graham is threatening to bomb Iran, we want to be very careful about who we're letting into the country after one of our senators threatened to bomb their country, right? | ||
| Yeah, so the real risk is not, we're not even talking about economics or whether it's cool how they enter. | ||
| That's obviously a big joke. | ||
| The threat is, yo, are we letting spies into this country to attack us? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| We do that all the time! | ||
| This is a thing! | ||
| We, under the guise of being able to say, this is a humanitarian issue, we need to be nice, we just let anyone enter. | ||
| So why would another country not be like, we'll just send some military-age meds. | ||
| We just will send a spy because you can get through the border. | ||
| Well, this is... Go ahead. | ||
| No, I'm sorry. | ||
| Oh, I can rant about this all day long. | ||
| I will be here. | ||
| This is in addition to the 151 individuals on the FBI terror watch list who have been admitted to the country since Biden took office. | ||
| Didn't they say that they lost track of like 24 terrorists? | ||
| They lost track of a lot of people. | ||
| They lost track of children who are being now like sold into domestic and sexual slavery. | ||
| Oh yeah, absolutely. | ||
| But that way they get to be here when it happens. | ||
| I just don't understand this argument for why anyone would benefit from an open border. | ||
| Everyone suffers and the Biden administration passes off as like, there's actually over 70,000 special interest aliens that they have encountered. | ||
| What does that mean? | ||
| Special interests? | ||
| Are we talking about terror threats? | ||
| Well, let's see what it means. | ||
| Because I know that we've specifically talked about... It's an illegal alien from a nation that either promotes terrorist activity, harbors terrorists, or poses a possible security threat. | ||
| So what that is, these are people who President Donald Trump said, we're not going to let any of these people into the country, and he was called Islamophobic for it. | ||
| Oh yeah, was this the Muslim band? | ||
| Yeah, it was. | ||
| Oh, it was the Muslim band. | ||
| It was the Muslim band. | ||
| It was the Muslim band plus North Korea and Venezuela. | ||
| And then today, it was the Muslim band plus the DeSantis campaign started being like, when is Trump going to talk about what he would do about terrorist illegal immigrants? | ||
| And it's like, what do you mean? | ||
| How about what he did? | ||
| He doesn't have to talk about what he would do. | ||
| He had policies and he did things when he was in office. | ||
| He kept people out. | ||
| No, he recently did. | ||
| And he did today as well. | ||
| He posted a meme of crocodiles. | ||
| And today also. | ||
| In a moat. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Greg Abbott's like, please send the crocodiles. | ||
| I don't know if the crocodiles could survive, because if they could, they'd just be there already. | ||
| And it would ruin vacationing in the Gulf. | ||
| Honestly, a few crocodiles would just... | ||
| Stave this off. | ||
| We know to stay away from the water in Florida. | ||
| Ben Shapiro made a great point earlier about, he said, the West doesn't need to commit suicide to protect refugees. | ||
| You might want to pay attention to who you're letting into your country. | ||
| It doesn't mean we blame citizens and civilians in conflict. | ||
| He was like, we're not going to blame the civilians in Palestine, but we're not going to open the door, just let everyone come in when they hate us. | ||
| The Arab countries aren't letting in these refugees. | ||
| Egypt's not. | ||
| Egypt's not, you know. | ||
| And also there's no reason that we should. | ||
| You have, what's his name, Jabal Bowman in New York saying that we should take in Palestinian refugees from Gaza. | ||
| The fire alarm puller? | ||
| I wouldn't trust a guy on that who doesn't even know what a fire alarm is. | ||
| Well, I frankly would probably not trust anyone from Brooklyn. | ||
| I'm going to take from that. | ||
| And she can say that because she's from New York. | ||
| She lived in Brooklyn. | ||
| It's not a hate crime. | ||
| So aren't there standards for asylum and they're just like rubber stamping everybody instead of like being like, no, you don't meet the requirement for asylum. | ||
| So maybe they should just start enforcing rules that already exist. | ||
| You know, we have to combine the previous segment with this segment. | ||
| We don't have enough people to fight in our armies. | ||
| And so we import all these illegal immigrants and then we say, that's right. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Hey, you want citizenship? | ||
| All you gotta do is fight for us. | ||
| I mean, we did it before in the civil war. | ||
| But it is common. | ||
| They offer non-citizens a path of citizenship by serving in the armed forces. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| That's a pretty, I mean, that's not just an American thing. | ||
| That's a classic thing throughout history that nations have done. | ||
| Isn't that how like, like didn't Rome do something like that before collapsing? | ||
| Well, we did that in the Revolutionary War, I believe. | ||
| Yeah, and the Civil War. | ||
| Well, the Revolutionary War was French intervention. | ||
| The Crown had the mercenaries. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| They had, like, the Hessians. | ||
| I remember that story. | ||
| We can't ask people who came here illegally to become citizens. | ||
| You guys are crazy. | ||
| That would be ridiculous. | ||
| I'm not on board with this plan either. | ||
| I think that we should probably have something like... | ||
| Huge levels of deportations and just be like, no you're done, this is not going to work out. | ||
| Take the entire Roosevelt Hotel and just move out. | ||
| Deportation, but to Ukraine. | ||
| I just think the Biden administration doesn't want to offer citizenship and they don't want to offer a path. | ||
| They like that there is an illegal population here. | ||
| I mean, what's going on is it's not that they don't want to offer citizenship. | ||
| They do want to offer citizenship. | ||
| They're just going to do all of this incrementally. | ||
| They're doing it slowly, just one little tiny step at a time so that the next one seems inevitable. | ||
| And then the next thing seems inevitable. | ||
| And then the next thing you know, we have five million new citizens because they had an amnesty. | ||
| Didn't Reagan do an amnesty? | ||
| They're gonna have like an agreement where it says like, you know, sign up for the U.S. | ||
| Armed Forces or go fight in Ukraine and you will earn citizenship and there will be like an asterisk next to it. | ||
| Then at the bottom of the page, it'll be like, see addendum 5E, which is not attached to this contract. | ||
| And then when you search the like the paperwork online, it'll be like citizen of Ukraine. | ||
| I'm okay with offering illegal immigrants citizenship in Ukraine. | ||
| That seems fine to me. | ||
| Let's argue for it. | ||
| I mean, honest question. | ||
| I still think it's probably bad, but what if the U.S. | ||
| was like, we're gonna take all the illegal immigrants and send them to go fight in Ukraine? | ||
| Well, does one country have that? | ||
| People would stop coming. | ||
| I think they would. | ||
| I think Zelensky would be mad because he'd be like, no, you haven't trained them properly and now I have this population of people who don't really know how to fight. | ||
| And it's kind of an ethno-state. | ||
| You know, what are we supposed to say? | ||
| Well, but you gotta just do, you gotta take the Soviet approach, which was, I might add, appropriated by Zap Brannigan in Futurama as a joke, where you just send wave after wave of your own men to die and eventually overwhelm the opposing force. | ||
| And I'm not kidding, that's literally the Soviet method. | ||
| That's what they've done every time. | ||
| Yeah, the Soviets just take a bunch of low-quality garbage and just smash it in that direction. | ||
| Isn't that what China does, too, basically? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And then the Nazis in World War II were like, we want the best technology, the premium. | ||
| That's what I'm doing. | ||
| Yeah, and then when it blows up, you have like 10 tanks that are really great, and then eventually one goes down. | ||
| The Russians were like, mass-produce the worst possible tank. | ||
| They're doing that now. | ||
| They've turned some of their factories over to like full tank manufacturing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Jeez. | |
| They did that months and months ago, in fact. | ||
| Yeah, that's true. | ||
| I think... We covered that at humanevents.com. | ||
| Look, with these stories that we're getting, these horror stories, like the guy who killed a six-year-old kid, the kid died, right? | ||
| The kid died. | ||
| That guy looks like a total crazy man, too. | ||
| But I think we're going to... He was a landlord. | ||
| Was he the landlord? | ||
| He was the landlord. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Oh, I'm being very bigoted. | ||
| That was the opposite! | ||
| Not only was he not homeless, but he owned more home! | ||
| He could have voted during the colonial period. | ||
| I think we're going to see some kind of major terror attack in the next year. | ||
| I agree with you. | ||
| What they're doing right now, it's kind of a process that they use to capture different countries. | ||
| It's demoralization, destabilization, crisis, and normalization. | ||
| And usually they kind of do it in order. | ||
| They're like, just demoralize everybody, and then they destabilize everybody, and then they create a chaos, and then they normalize it. | ||
| But what we're seeing America do is throw it all, throw it all down and see what sticks. | ||
| So they're normalizing parts of the chaos, and they're demoralizing everybody to destabilize them. | ||
| While they're destabilized, they're more demoralization, and it's just, And that's why everything feels so chaotic, because it is. | ||
| We feel like we're moving in fast forward. | ||
| It does feel very, very quick. | ||
| It feels like weeks take months, you know? | ||
| I can't believe it's mid-October already. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| We go to Miami for a week. | ||
| It's like 80 degrees outside. | ||
| Skating is so hard. | ||
| We come back from Miami and now it's 40, 45 degrees. | ||
| That was a great show, by the way. | ||
| Congrats. | ||
| It was a terrific event. | ||
| We're thinking we're going to do Pittsburgh in March. | ||
| Because it's so easy to just drive there. | ||
| It is easy to drive there. | ||
| I watched somebody lose like $19,000 at a blackjack table in Pittsburgh. | ||
| Casinos are in Pittsburgh, Tim! | ||
| We can go! | ||
| Well, there's casinos everywhere. | ||
| I watched a guy lose like $50,000 in 10 minutes and he didn't seem to care. | ||
| And I'm just like... Oh, this guy seemed like he was getting increasingly angry, but who really looked upset was his wife, who just like looked terrified. | ||
| That was a scary moment. | ||
|
unidentified
|
She's like, this is not a fun vacation to Pittsburgh. | |
| I think they live there. | ||
| I'm excited for a Pittsburgh show. | ||
| That sounds great. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, we may have some breaking news here. | ||
| I'm seeing this. | ||
| This was just tweeted out by Jesse Waters. | ||
| Take a look. | ||
| Joe Biden to visit Israel on Wednesday. | ||
| Didn't I say this like 20 minutes ago? | ||
| That Joe Biden was going there? | ||
| Yeah, tomorrow. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, OK. | |
| Wow. | ||
| You said it quietly. | ||
| You didn't announce it in a cool radio host voice. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, that's a good point. | |
| Today's Monday. | ||
| He's going there Wednesday, right? | ||
| Yeah, he's going there Wednesday. | ||
| Wait, it's not Tuesday? | ||
| It's not Tuesday. | ||
| It's impossible to say what day it is. | ||
| Sorry, everyone. | ||
| It seems like a really bad idea for Joe Biden to be going to an active conflict zone when rockets are blowing up. | ||
| But maybe that's the plan. | ||
| Yeah, maybe this is your Gavin Newsom rises to the occasion moment. | ||
| Yeah, I was kind of thinking that. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And I mean, this is worse than 9-11 to lose our president. | |
| It does seem like it could be kind of a setup. | ||
| It could be the lich pen, you know? | ||
| Well, let's think about this. | ||
| How do you get rid of Kamala Harris? | ||
| Everyone says if Joe Biden bows out, Kamala's next in line, she has to run. | ||
| Is she going with him there? | ||
| What? | ||
| I'm not saying that. | ||
| I'm saying what if Joe Biden, you know, God forbid something bad happens when he's over in Israel, which is the castor's belly for U.S. | ||
| intervention in the region. | ||
| Kamala Harris assumes the role of office of the presidency. | ||
| And then steps down at the end of the term and it goes to a new candidate. | ||
| Oh, I see. | ||
| One way that feasibly Kamala Harris drops out is that she actually serves and then says, I did my duty and now I'm going to be stepping down. | ||
| I really think she would drop out. | ||
| I think that she would be unburdened by what might have been. | ||
| I was going to say, I think it would be a very intense internal battle because I think she would not want to give up the shot. | ||
| She is power hungry. | ||
| I completely disagree. | ||
| I don't think she would win. | ||
| I think she's a muppet. | ||
| But I think she wouldn't want to go. | ||
| She's a muppet? | ||
| She's just, like, clearly the lady can't talk. | ||
| Have you ever heard her give a speech? | ||
| She says the same thing over and over and over again. | ||
| She says nothing. | ||
| She really doesn't want to be there. | ||
| No, she laughs and says nonsense. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And so if the plan from our intelligence apparatus was to get a new candidate who is going to actually be able to inspire to some degree, it ain't Kamala. | ||
| And Kamala's not going to do it because they're going to tell her no. | ||
| Joe Biden is here now, and it's not so much about Joe Biden not being a part of the deep state, or the bureaucratic state, or the administrative state. | ||
| It's that you need a clean PR exit. | ||
| If Joe Biden goes, I'm too old, I gotta go! | ||
| Everyone's gonna say, okay, what about Kamala? | ||
| We also know she can't win. | ||
| If something bad happens to Biden, deep state gets its work, its cast its belly. | ||
| Kamala Harris then assumes the role for the next year, or year and a half, and then says, I did my duty. | ||
| I'm now going to hand it off to those who are more capable, yada, yada, yada, and honorably hands the, passes the torch down to somebody else. | ||
| And she, she served as vice president, first female, whatever she wants to identify as vice president. | ||
| Sometimes it's Asian, sometimes it's black. | ||
| First female president. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| First one. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And she also got to serve for like one day as president because Joe Biden had to go under anesthesia for like a colonoscopy. | ||
| So she already was the first president that was female, so it's all out of the way. | ||
| It's gotten out of the way, so she doesn't have to serve now because she's already been one. | ||
| But assuming the role for a short period would be legitimately hitting that marker. | ||
| I think it's the ideal case for her, and I think it just depends on how entrenched she is in obeying her commanders, right? | ||
| True. | ||
| But the thing about Biden is that I think I think he does not want to go. | ||
| He will put up a fight. | ||
| He wants to retain power for as long as possible. | ||
| Maybe Kamala is more compliant and she would exit after, you know, half a term or whatever she has left to serve. | ||
| I just think all of these people are so power hungry that once they get into the chair, they don't want to leave it. | ||
| I believe that she can serve for two full terms after the midpoint. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, she can. | |
| How many? | ||
| How many people in this country would support U.S. | ||
| intervention into the Middle East, particularly the Israel region? | ||
| Israel, Jordan, etc. | ||
| How many people would support that if Joe Biden was critically wounded by Hamas? | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Or Hezbollah? | ||
| Or Iran! | ||
| I mean, look, I'll say right now, I imagine all of the neolibs are going to outright be in favor of it. | ||
| We are all going to find ourselves sharing talking points with many leftists who are anti-war, | ||
| not because they agree with us, but because they will exploit whatever | ||
| the modern narrative is to gain power. | ||
| And if their support is for Palestine, we will all say something like, | ||
| foreign intervention is a mistake, it'll cause World War III, | ||
| and they'll parrot those talking points in an effort to try and seize power. | ||
| You will then get someone like Ben Shapiro, who will undoubtedly say, | ||
| these are terrorists who have killed Israelis, and now they've targeted our president | ||
| and this administration, the US absolutely must, must, | ||
| you're gonna get every conservative, like 90% of conservatives saying the US. | ||
| must intervene. | ||
| I think there would be huge support for military intervention if they went after the president. | ||
| But it does seem ridiculous that we're putting the president in directly in harm's way. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It is ridiculous. | ||
| Rockets are exploding over Tel Aviv right now. | ||
| And he wouldn't go to, what, Palestine, Ohio? | ||
| But he will go here? | ||
| Like, what is going on, Biden? | ||
| He also won't go to the border still. | ||
| I don't understand this risk management. | ||
| Why is one thing okay when we know there is very violent active conflict, but the other places that they kept saying, no, it's fine, he won't go. | ||
| This doesn't make sense. | ||
| Also, I think Blinken is in charge. | ||
| Barely. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It seems like it. | ||
| I think he's the one who's making all of these decisions. | ||
| And he was just in talks for seven hours. | ||
| So, I mean, now we need Biden to come in. | ||
| Biden, our very effective and charismatic leader. | ||
| So that he can, like, fall off the stage in Jerusalem instead of... It's rough. | ||
| I don't like this. | ||
| We look so weak internationally. | ||
| I'm worried about more than falling off the stage. | ||
| I'm worried about rockets exploding and the Iron Dome failing. | ||
| It's almost like he's intentionally being set up. | ||
| Yes, how could you not feel that way? | ||
| That's what it looked like to me earlier today, and I was like, no, that's crazy. | ||
| Don't think that. | ||
| Remember what Obama said to Joe? | ||
| You don't have to do this. | ||
| Right. | ||
| What he was really saying is, Joe, don't sacrifice yourself for this country. | ||
| Going back to how many people would be in favor of something if it happened to the president, | ||
| I mean, I think Congress had something like a 90% approval rating when it came to 9-11 | ||
| and everybody was just so in favor of war, so in favor of the Patriot Act, so in favor | ||
| of justice and redemption. | ||
| So I think that it wouldn't be that high, but I think it'd be probably like 70%, you | ||
| know, if we can kind of think about what percentage of conservatives would be behind it, what | ||
| percentage of neolibs would be behind it, we could probably get a pretty rough estimate | ||
| about that. | ||
| That's a really difficult question. | ||
| Would any of us here, would any of you watching, let's not enter, like, let's say Joe Biden | ||
| on good faith, let's say on good faith, is trying to actually deescalate and he's going | ||
| there to tell them, Joe Biden's already publicly stated they should not invade Gaza. | ||
| So okay, let's say on good faith Joe Biden really is trying to de-escalate. | ||
|
unidentified
|
If Hamas Attacks. | |
| And in any way removes Joe Biden. | ||
| I'll be very light on my language. | ||
| Would you, listening, comment below, let me know what you think, support U.S. | ||
| intervention to go after those who committed the act that, you know, targeted our president? | ||
| I for one could really use another fool around and find out tweet from Donald Trump. | ||
| What if Donald Trump then says as much as we think Joe Biden, look, we think he's crooked, but and then he decides we are going after the terrorists. | ||
| How has he been on Israel or even Ukraine for that matter? | ||
| He just put out a statement saying he will not allow the refugees or these people coming. | ||
| He still seems America first. | ||
| He's very America first, but he's also said that he stands with Bibi and he said, I stand with Bibi and I stand with Israel. | ||
| So, you know, I do think that he does. | ||
| Israel's a longstanding ally and, you know, I'm fully in support of Israel's right to defend themselves. | ||
| I will say if our president were assassinated by a foreign agent on foreign soil, I would recommend literally destroying whatever nation was behind it. | ||
| It's the most impossible situation because you want to be, at least I would like to be as anti-interventionist, America first. | ||
| That's not anti-interventionist, that's retaliatory. | ||
| It's retaliatory at that point and that's the difference. | ||
| I'm good if we can just keep the kids out of it. | ||
| But everyone in the chat is saying, no way. | ||
| No way. | ||
| No U.S. | ||
| retaliation. | ||
| If we have no retaliation to a presidential assassination by a foreign agent, then we have no nation. | ||
| Because we're involved in a very different way than we are right now. | ||
| I mean, if our president were assassinated on foreign soil by the CIA, this is kind of where we're at now. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I'm very nationalist. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The U.S. | |
| has discovered oil in the U.S. | ||
| and will be deploying a military force to liberate the U.S. | ||
| from the U.S. | ||
| That checks out. | ||
| I mean, there are, there are, you know, organizations in the world that really hate the United States and want to see us destroyed fully. | ||
| One of those is Hamas. | ||
| Like, I mean, I wonder if people would be saying, as well, if Donald, like, here's another question. | ||
| If Joe Biden was sitting in the White House and the White House got attacked, And foreign agents, you know, took the life of Joe Biden in the White House. | ||
| should there be a retaliation? | ||
| Yeah, article 4, section 4, that's what our military is there for. | ||
| Very fully. | ||
| It's defense of our nation. | ||
| What about Ron Paul had the view that we should issue letters of mark, | ||
| mark and reprisal. | ||
| Those are cool. | ||
| To target specifically the actors who did it and not declare war on entire nations, right? | ||
| So when it came to 9-11, his argument was, Al Qaeda did this. | ||
| It's not Iraq. | ||
| It's not Afghanistan. | ||
| We should have issued letters of mark and reprisal and gone after Al Qaeda specifically. | ||
| Mm-hmm. | ||
| So if anybody doesn't really know what letters of mark are, it's in the Constitution. | ||
| It's like something article, something section. | ||
| It's essentially that they can make Americans mercenaries or make Americans honorary pirates, essentially. | ||
| It's the honorary pirate clause, okay? | ||
| So if we get in a sea war or a land war with Russia or China or Iran or whatever, the Congress can write these letters of mark and say, oh, you own a boat? | ||
| You get to be a pirate now. | ||
| And then you get to go be a pirate. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| That's why after 9-11 they constructed a fire boat. | ||
| Yeah, and there's actually more to this clause, too, or how they've interpreted it. | ||
| Like, you get to take their booty, but you have to split the booty with Congress. | ||
| That was kind of the original reading of the letters of Mark. | ||
| Nancy Pelosi's got to get hers. | ||
| Get a boat. | ||
| This is what people don't realize. | ||
| Pirates were basically under Crown protection during, like, Pirates of the Caribbean. | ||
| Barbary Pirates. | ||
| I mean, but it just, there were so many more, right? | ||
| Britain basically says, hey, go disrupt French supply lines and we'll protect you. | ||
| And then when France is like, you're attacking our ships, like, oh, those are pirates? | ||
| We would never! | ||
| I think John Adams actually... It was John Adams. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Against the Barbary pirates. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He was really, he was working on negotiations with them. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It was a whole big thing to just try and get their ships to get across so they could trade. | ||
| Well, after the War for Independence, Britain was still kidnapping, capturing U.S. | ||
| citizens and forcing them to serve on their ships. | ||
| Crazy. | ||
| Yeah, impressive. | ||
| But anyway, in the instance that something does happen to Joe Biden, so here's a question. | ||
| So if Joe Biden goes overseas and something happens to him, people have mostly said, no, no, we should not intervene because of that. | ||
| What if it's Donald Trump? | ||
| What if Donald Trump went to North Korea to negotiate peace, crossed the DMZ, and then once he got up, you know, 50 feet in, they bashed him over the head and dragged his body off to a prison? | ||
| Should the U.S. | ||
| then go to war with North Korea? | ||
| Even if it means China- I don't think we should go to war with North Korea. | ||
| I think we should destroy North Korea. | ||
| And then China says, if you make any moves on North Korea, we will nuke New York. | ||
| I would still say then we nuke them, too. | ||
| That's World War III. | ||
| But we're heading there anyway. | ||
| If they kill our president, we're already there. | ||
| Yeah, I was going to say, the president thing is a level of engagement from the other side that we are not currently at. | ||
| Can we encourage them to also bomb... | ||
| Hollywood on top of New York City? | ||
| What about the children? | ||
| We'll get the children out and we'll just bomb the movie stars. | ||
| Remember the Simpsons Halloween special with Kang and Kodos? | ||
| And they're like, we'll take all of your members of Congress. | ||
| And then Homer Marge is like, you couldn't get all of them, could you? | ||
| Just watch us! | ||
| And they're like, alright. | ||
| Can we help? | ||
| Like, oh no, don't. | ||
| Yeah, I was going to say, I wonder what the Simpsons have predicted about this. | ||
| Well, a lot of people are saying if Donald Trump was attacked or targeted, yes, we should intervene. | ||
| So it's more of a political question than anything else. | ||
| But I think that's the problem. | ||
| Like, as much as I don't like Biden, he is still the president. | ||
| So if another country, you know, attacked him on foreign soil, It is still a serious crime against America. | ||
| It hasn't happened. | ||
| I don't know why we are sending Biden there. | ||
| It is stupid. | ||
| It is just very stupid. | ||
| It doesn't make any sense. | ||
| This is my concern. | ||
| I mean, there's look, man, you can be as anti-intervention as you want, but you're going to you're going to convince there. | ||
| There's a lot of people are going to be like, yeah, killing a president is is grounds for invasion. | ||
| Yes, I fully think. | ||
| If anything, anything is ground for reprisal. | ||
| It is quite literally killing our president. | ||
| Yes, I fully agree with that. | ||
| That's terrifying. | ||
| Biden should not be going to a conflict zone like this right now. | ||
| I don't know why he is. | ||
| It's very stupid. | ||
| Makes no sense. | ||
| Ohio was too dangerous. | ||
| Right. | ||
| No, it wasn't dangerous. | ||
| I just didn't want to go. | ||
| To be fair, the border is probably too dangerous. | ||
| Yeah, true. | ||
| Well, apparently it's not as dangerous as this situation, so I don't really know what they're communicating to us. | ||
| I think this is the weird thing about the theatrics of the Biden administration is that nothing is logical, nothing makes sense, and so you have to sort of suspend trying to make it reasonable. | ||
| And that's why we can have these conversations that are like, are they setting him up? | ||
| Because it seems like they might be. | ||
| It does seem really bizarre to send your president to an active war zone like this. | ||
| Where you're deploying your Marines. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But everything is fine? | ||
| And where there's like active terrorists seeking to destroy the nation that he is going to visit. | ||
| Is he going to be guarded by all those Marines? | ||
| Are they going to like send the Marines over with Biden and then just leave the Marines there? | ||
| Is that essentially what's happening? | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| Well, the Marines are already in the area. | ||
| Aren't they already like not in the U.S.? | ||
| They're nearby. | ||
| We've got a lot of guys in Germany, right? | ||
| They were in Kuwait. | ||
| Yeah, many of them were in Kuwait. | ||
| I don't know where these other guys are coming from. | ||
| But yeah, we're sending 2,000 troops and the president's heading there. | ||
| You know, this doesn't bode well. | ||
| Did he go to Maui in the end or did he not? | ||
| I'm going to go hang out in the storeroom with all my food buckets and just turn the lights off. | ||
| Because that's a good question, too. | ||
| I mean, that was the other one. | ||
| Biden. | ||
| He did go to Maui. | ||
| Yeah, he was on vacation in. | ||
| In Utah, maybe? | ||
| No, what's the lake there? | ||
| Tahoe. | ||
| He was on vacation in Tahoe and he took a morning and an afternoon, maybe, I think, and went to Maui. | ||
| Oh, wow. | ||
| That was nice of him. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| A little jaunt. | ||
| And Biden didn't go to New York on 9-11. | ||
| He went to Alaska. | ||
| But to be fair, New York is too dangerous for the president. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| He didn't go to 9-11. | ||
| But he said he went to New York on 9-11 in 2001, even though he didn't. | ||
| He went with a little congressional delegation a few days after. | ||
| Because he was literally in Congress giving a speech and there's video of it. | ||
| Well, I mean, to be fair, you know, a lot of it is that he's just a liar and he's always been. | ||
| But he also does have like, and I mean, it's quite literally like serious brain damage from like aneurysms and surgery. | ||
| So it's not funny. | ||
| I mean, it's true. | ||
| This is the leader of our country that we are now being like, hey, everyone's on the brink of tension. | ||
| So let's send Joe Biden in. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| I hate his little old man walk when he walks around. | ||
| Look, the dementia shuffle is sad, but it's not what I would like in a president. | ||
| That is probably the better point, that of all the people we need to be sending to Israel to talk down the war, we're sending the worst. | ||
| It doesn't make sense! | ||
| It's like we want things to get worse! | ||
| Maybe we should send the CIA right by and go! | ||
| I think that they're doing it in the same way because so many people are invested in this war. | ||
| And it's almost like when George W. Bush went to 9-11 and put his arm around the firefighter and I think they think they're going to get something like that and they are not. | ||
| That kind of imagery? | ||
| Yes, exactly. | ||
| Did Biden ever go to Ukraine? | ||
| I know the First Lady went to Ukraine at one point. | ||
| Kamala Harris went, too. | ||
| Kamala Harris went, but did Joe Biden go to Ukraine? | ||
| I don't remember. | ||
| Boris Johnson went. | ||
| Yeah, he did. | ||
| He did go to Ukraine, so I'm looking it up. | ||
| I think Biden went. | ||
| Oh, Biden went and there were, like, fake air sirens. | ||
| They, like, set off air raid sirens and no one looked at all perturbed because they were fake or something. | ||
| But he went this year, like a year into the conflict. | ||
| He went, yeah. | ||
| He went after. | ||
| He waited some good time for this thing that we spent billions of dollars on. | ||
| He also went to Kyiv, which is different than If Biden was kidnapped and smuggled into Tehran and they put him on camera and they had him and they were like, we have your president. | ||
| Should the U.S. | ||
| invade Iraq? | ||
| We don't negotiate with terrorists. | ||
| Also immediately defund the Secret Service who clearly did a terrible job or was complicit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
If he gets kidnapped, I'm sorry, but that's just a waste of money. | |
| I'm just asking this hypothetical in, like, would people support a U.S. | ||
| invasion of Iran if they kidnap our president? | ||
| What's the chat saying about that? | ||
| The chat? | ||
| Everyone's saying give Kamala a pay raise. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| Say no. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| How dare you? | ||
| I think obviously we would have to do what we could to protect our president. | ||
| Trump would not want us to negotiate with terrorists. | ||
| Some of his ads is that Joe Biden negotiates with terrorists and look what happened. | ||
| He's like, I don't negotiate with terrorists. | ||
| No one would kidnap him because I would go get him. | ||
| But also Trump would get out of it. | ||
| They have Trump in like a chair and he's tied up. | ||
| Trump would talk himself out of it. | ||
| And they put a camera on. | ||
| Yes, he would. | ||
| And they're like, if you don't give us, you know, $5 billion, you know, if you want your president released. | ||
| And then Trump rips the mask off and he's like, don't do it! | ||
| Don't give him anything! | ||
| And they hit him and then he's like, no! | ||
| And then, you know, like a movie. | ||
| No, he'd probably just get elected in that country. | ||
| You know, like, he's so charismatic. | ||
| He'd be like, he's making some great points, this New Yorker. | ||
| Like, can you be our president? | ||
| Everyone's saying yes to Trump. | ||
| If it's Trump, we go in. | ||
| If it's Biden, no. | ||
| It's not about Biden or Trump. | ||
| It's about the representative of our nation. | ||
| Yeah, that's ultimately what it comes down to. | ||
| I understand. | ||
| It's on us that we have a super Just an awful, awful representative. | ||
| Leader of our nation. | ||
| It's humiliating. | ||
| But we don't have an inspirational president who we want to go save. | ||
| I don't even want an inspirational president. | ||
| I just want someone who can think thoughts all the way through from beginning to end. | ||
| That's too high of a standard. | ||
| And make good decisions and project confidence and a little bit of insanity at the rest of the world. | ||
| Can I offer you someone who falls upstairs? | ||
| I remember something that they used to do with Trump when he would go and meet with foreign leaders and they'd be like, look at, you know, these people don't respect him at all. | ||
| And they'd be like, like Justin Trudeau, like, like, you know, all femininely looking him up and down. | ||
| Do you want Justin Trudeau to respect you though? | ||
| Exactly, right? | ||
| This is the thing, and everybody's like, yeah, see, the foreign world doesn't respect Donald Trump. | ||
| It's like, really? | ||
| Like, like, can we do, can we, can we talk about Joe Biden now? | ||
| Can we talk about the respect? | ||
| Also, like, no one respects Joe Biden at all. | ||
| Not at all, no. | ||
| Not even his wife, who let him run for president. | ||
| No, no, God no. | ||
| Yeah, they don't respect him at all. | ||
| I mean, the border's wide open. | ||
| Like, everybody lit their prisoners out to come to our country the minute he got in office. | ||
| I mean, you can track it right down to January 20th or whatever the 21st. | ||
| We should just be grateful to the El Salvador president who put all those guys in prison so that they're not crossing the border. | ||
| That dude's hitting it out of the ballpark, man. | ||
| Yeah, definitely. | ||
| El Salvador's killing it. | ||
| Yeah, I mean literally Trump's like not Trump, but Biden's been disrespected to his face Like he landed in China that time and they just didn't meet him there as if they didn't have the delegation in there And he said they're all well, I guess like they'll figure it out It's a good sending to Trump Trump to turn around left immediately because he realized that there it's a big dis bro. | ||
| Yeah, really cool Yeah So yeah, they don't- For someone who got criticized for not being presidential, he would not have taken these diplomatic snubs. | ||
| Man, I'm really worried about Wednesday. | ||
| I don't like it. | ||
| There's so- I mean, with the investigations into the Bidens, if something bad happens to them, there's no political circumstance in which people are going to be- All of it gone. | ||
| All the under Biden stuff gone. | ||
| All the Joe Biden, Burisma, Ukraine, all of it gone. | ||
| Anything bad happens to him. | ||
| They're like sacrificing their queen in chess, you know what I'm saying? | ||
| This is what it feels like. | ||
| Oh, it is. | ||
| It's the queen sacrifice. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| If you think he's, like, a person that can move anywhere on the board and do all these things. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know about that. | ||
| I don't think he can move himself. | ||
| I think someone else makes the decision. | ||
| Which is how it works with chess, because he needs somebody else's hand. | ||
| He is, yeah, he's perceived as the most powerful person in the United States, like the queen, you know, protects the king. | ||
| But is the king the deep state? | ||
| Who's the king? | ||
| We don't have a king. | ||
| Yeah, the deep state. | ||
| Yeah, king of the deep state. | ||
| And they say it's time for you to go to serve your country. | ||
| This is what you need to do. | ||
| And that's the thing, because he'll kind of go down if something, God forbid, happens, like nobody wants that to happen. | ||
| Nobody would wish that. | ||
| But if something, God forbid, you know, happens. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But it gives the deep state literally everything. | |
| Nothing bad could, like, come of that. | ||
| And this move, him going to Israel, this doesn't track. | ||
| Like I said, no border. | ||
| He didn't go to Ohio. | ||
| He won't even go to New York. | ||
| But he went to Ukraine after a year of conflict. | ||
| But he puts a lid on things by noon. | ||
| And he's like, I'm going to Israel immediately. | ||
| It doesn't make sense. | ||
| That was the Monday after this war started. | ||
| He put a lid on it by like 11.54am. | ||
| But they were still kind of putting out statements, right? | ||
| They were sort of vaguely, I mean, you had KJP there on Twitter. | ||
| Doesn't make any sense. | ||
| She's the worst. | ||
| Yeah, she is. | ||
| But they'll stick by her. | ||
| I was kind of expecting her to not make it this long. | ||
| That's because she's a lesbian. | ||
| So they have to stick by her because she is a diversity hire because of her sexual orientation. | ||
| And they put gender identity and who you like to sleep with as the most important qualifiers for how you get a job in the Biden administration. | ||
| Did you ever think you'd miss Jen Psaki? | ||
| That was my question. | ||
| Uh, no. | ||
| But I kind of do sometimes. | ||
| I don't watch her show, though. | ||
| No, I don't watch it. | ||
| I don't miss it that much. | ||
| This, just to add on to this briefly before we jump on to the next story, it is so weird, the obsession with sex the left has. | ||
| Yeah, it is. | ||
| Where it's like, exactly what you're saying, you have these times where it's like, okay, and the job is crane operator, and who do you sleep with? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And so I'll just add to this, because you guys know I've been playing Baldur's Gate. | ||
| Modern video game, AAA game comes out, every character's trying to have sex with your characters. | ||
| You have four different characters, you have a party, and you play as each one of them, each have their own storyline. | ||
| But it's basically, the whole game makes literally no sense because of it. | ||
| And it's really annoying, and people have been complaining about it. | ||
| But what happens is, with this wokeness, they're like, anybody can have a relationship with anybody. | ||
| But it's just like, the problem is, when I'm going on a job, right? | ||
| We go to Miami. | ||
| We're gonna go to Miami, and we're gonna go down and put on a show. | ||
| The idea that everyone will be constantly trying to just, like, the only conversations you're having are about how you trust and love and want to have sex with each other is just, like, the weirdest thing imaginable. | ||
| Also, that seems really icky and kind of, like, it makes everything awkward. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Yo, not to mention everyone in the game is racist in the game. | ||
| Like, that's, like, explicit. | ||
| Like, people in the game are racist. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Really? | |
| So it's, like, it's just sex and racism, huh? | ||
| Well, I don't mean to bring up just this one game. | ||
| The left's two favorite things. | ||
| My point is, left popular culture, when it comes to the workplace professional and when it comes to entertainment, is the most important thing is who you're banging. | ||
| That's the weirdest thing ever. | ||
| I always thought it was weird. | ||
| I have friends who work for some big, you know, corporate America type companies and they will be like, oh yeah, I got, you know, I've come out and so therefore I got put on our LGBTQ whatever panel and I help organize trainings at work and there's sort of this weird industry that all hinges on the fact that you have disclosed who you're sleeping with or what your sexual habits are. | ||
| Why would you want that? | ||
| Especially in some sort of structured corporate, like this must be an HR nightmare somewhere down the line. | ||
| Well, let's jump to this story from the Daily Mail and talk about victories against wokeness, the inadvertent results of what we're seeing now with Israel and Hamas. | ||
| Billionaires who have pumped $500 million into Ivy League schools back out over failure to condemn the Hamas terror attacks in Israel. | ||
| Harvard and UPenn face losing hundreds of millions in future endowments. | ||
| Up to 487 million could be lost amid rising tensions between Israel and Palestine. | ||
| Billionaires Ken Griffin has requested Harvard take a robust stance in defense of Israel. | ||
| So, let's just put it this way. | ||
| We've long talked about defunding universities. | ||
| It's happening. | ||
| And it's happening because these activist groups came out in support of terrorists. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, there you go. | |
| They had a line, apparently. | ||
| There was a line. | ||
| They created these people. | ||
| They created these monsters. | ||
| This is Dr. Frankenstein. | ||
| They created this. | ||
| And now they're like, oh, I guess this isn't very popular now. | ||
| Time to undo the damage and look like heroes. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| Ken Griffin pledged $300 million to Harvard this year alone, but contacted the head of the university board to complain about the tepid response of President Claudine Gay. | ||
| So he's apparently not hearing back, and it looks like they're going to start pulling their funding. | ||
| The Claudine Gay thing was really fascinating because she put out, so you had all of these student groups at Harvard, what was it, like 12 student groups and they all submitted letters basically in support of Hamas and like against Israel and they all put out these letters and then you had these companies, these CEOs were like, who is in these student groups? | ||
| We don't want to hire them. | ||
| And then you had like alum and trustees, you know, complaining and saying, you know, we want to pull our funding out. | ||
| You had Claudine Gay, the president of Harvard, saying, which I think she's right to say, is that she supports free speech. | ||
| She supports the free speech of the students at the school, right? | ||
| I'm always going to support the free speech, even though I totally disagree with it. | ||
| She came out and said that. | ||
| This is at a university where people get de-platformed for not using the right pronouns or for saying that men aren't women. | ||
| So it's a total hypocritical grift is exactly what it is. | ||
| It's trash. | ||
| She supports free speech when it's convenient for her. | ||
| She supports free speech because she doesn't have to say anything about these student groups | ||
| and she doesn't have to say anything about the crazy ideological warfare that's been | ||
| waged against the students of the United States, making them believe that terrorism is good | ||
| and America is bad. | ||
| She doesn't have to do anything legitimate. | ||
| She just has to like... | ||
| So I support the defunding of these universities. | ||
| I have long thought that the problem with the student loan crisis, the schools should | ||
| pay it off with their huge endowments. | ||
| Yes, absolutely. | ||
| I agree with that. | ||
| It's sad for me, just as a constitutional person, to think about how far Harvard has fallen. | ||
| John Adams went there. | ||
| John Quincy Adams went there. | ||
| But it hasn't been that Harvard in a long time. | ||
| The Springfield Armory used to be in Massachusetts. | ||
| And it isn't now. | ||
| John Adams also, he defended the British soldiers during the Boston Massacre, which I have immense respect for, even though he totally disagreed with them. | ||
| Yeah, he believed so powerfully that they would get a free trial if they were defended well, because that's what people were like, okay? | ||
| So he believed so powerfully in this that he's like, I will defend them myself. | ||
| And his defense got I love that you have a John Adams thing. | ||
| I have a John Adams thing. | ||
| off and two of them instead of death were marked with an M and that M just | ||
| I do. | ||
| meant manslaughter. Yeah so then that and that was his doing that did that and now | ||
| it's like we are we are we are oh my god I loved him but we were like I love that | ||
| you have a John Adams thing I have a John Adams thing I do have you ever seen | ||
| Adams? No. | ||
| Watch it. | ||
| It's the best series ever. | ||
| But I saw 1776 on Broadway. | ||
| So if you think about how far away we are from that. | ||
| From John Adams representing the Redcoats and getting six of them off and two of them from death to a manslaughter brand on their hand. | ||
| Now look at like the J6ers. | ||
| Yeah, and the fact that the same judge, Judge Schutkin, who has been prosecuting January 6th defendants, sometimes imposing sentences greater than the Department of Justice even asked for, is now the judge presiding over Trump's case, I think is absolutely insane. | ||
| She has so much bias against him. | ||
| She's being allowed to do this. | ||
| She put a gag order on him today because they don't like his social media posts. | ||
| Yeah, because they don't want him to make fun of them. | ||
| Right, but also they don't want him to be able to speak in his own defense, and they know that the more he does speak in his own defense and the more they prosecute him, the more popular he becomes in the United States. | ||
| I have a conspiracy about this. | ||
| They are doing this totally illegally, totally in front of our faces, totally unconstitutionally. | ||
| And it's going to go to SCOTUS, who's going to be like, this was really unconstitutional what you did. | ||
| We are overturning this. | ||
| You know, get him off of house arrest because he's never going to go to prison unless they build a new wing or whatever. | ||
| But he's going to go to Mar-a-Lago, have an ankle bracelet or whatever. | ||
| But they're going to say, okay, this is unconstitutional, and then Congress is going to rise up, or all the deep state, and they're going to be like, this is why we need to pack the court, because this court is biased for Trump, and that's the only way to correct this ill. | ||
| These are Trump judges that lit him off, and it is undemocratic, and that's what's going to happen. | ||
| Which means we can't lose the House. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Yes, exactly. | ||
| And it's the only control that there is and we don't have a speaker. | ||
| This segment's supposed to be a white pill and you guys are... Do you guys like Jordan? | ||
| Who do you like for speaker? | ||
| I mean, Matt Gaetz. | ||
| You like Gaetz for speaker? | ||
| I don't think he's been nominated. | ||
| I don't think he wants to do it and there's reasons why it's not necessarily appropriate. | ||
| I mean, he led the charge against McCarthy. | ||
| But come on, how many people are actually doing anything. Jim Jordan's great, but I mean, you're | ||
| still gonna get... he's not perfect. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nobody is. He's better than McCarthy. He's a big talker. He talks a big, big talk. Big talk. But | |
| he doesn't always walk the walk. Well, he has a lot of investigations that he's working on. | ||
| Yeah. Appreciate it. Yeah. I think he could do a good job. | ||
| I think we have to get someone. | ||
| I think this has been fun and games, but it's time to get a speaker in place. | ||
| And if it's Jim Jordan, that's fine. | ||
| I mean, I don't care. | ||
| A speaker can be anybody. | ||
| Who would you nominate for speaker, Tim? | ||
| Trump. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Who would you nominate, Libby? | ||
| If I was nominating for someone for speaker, I would have to look into it a little more. | ||
| I would not nominate Trump for speaker because I would like him to be president, and I don't think that... He can be. | ||
| What? | ||
| He can be. | ||
| So he's gonna fight five cases against him, four of which are criminal, two of which are federal. | ||
| Yeah, those cases go away. | ||
| I would nominate Ron Paul. | ||
| Who would you nominate? | ||
| I mean, Ron Paul's interesting. | ||
| We'd love to see him do stuff. | ||
| I do think that he's old enough now where maybe he wouldn't be effective. | ||
| I believe he will just live forever and preside over our country in our hearts and in our minds, but this is sort of the argument against people being too old and being forced to work forever. | ||
| I think that's not actually good for American culture. | ||
| Like Dianne Feinstein was working literally until she died. | ||
| And is this like what we want? | ||
| Yeah, I think that's gross. | ||
| I really hope that when I'm that age, when I'm like substantially younger than the age Dianne Feinstein was when she died, I just get to like hang out with grandbabies. | ||
| This is what I pray for. | ||
| I think this is what bothers me about American politicians is, you know, Feinstein didn't get into the Senate until she was 60 anyways, right? | ||
| So then she was in for Essentially for decades and died while serving. | ||
| I don't think that that sets a good precedent for the culture that they are writing into the law, right? | ||
| We need a culture that supports a work-life balance and promotes people to spend time with their families. | ||
| I don't like Mitt Romney, but I do understand why he was like, I'm going to be in my mid-80s if I run again. | ||
| Maybe someone else should do this job. | ||
| And so with Speaker of the House, I would love to see someone young enough. | ||
| Ron Paul would be great. | ||
| A disciple of Ron Paul, perhaps. | ||
| I just can't name one off the top of my head. | ||
| I think it's one of those Dave Smith. | ||
| Carefully researched. | ||
| Dave Smith. | ||
| Dave Smith can be Speaker of the House. | ||
| That would be great. | ||
| He'd be roasting these people, banging the gavel and being like, you know, it'd be awesome. | ||
| Yeah, it could be good. | ||
| I kind of like Jordan. | ||
| I just think we have to do someone at this point. | ||
| If we're going like pie in the sky, make your wishes come true. | ||
| It's not just Jordan. | ||
| Joe Rogan. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Joe Rogan. | |
| But I mean, you want somebody who knows, I mean, the House Speaker has to be an operator, whether we like it or not. | ||
| Like, that's part of the job. | ||
| Have you ever seen the meme explaining, like, where the Joe Rogan podcast is? | ||
| And it's like, it's like a breakdown of, it's like, it's like basically a script written out and Joe's like, he mentioned something about peanuts growing in trees and then someone says, peanuts don't grow in trees, they actually grow underground. | ||
| And he goes, wait, what? | ||
| What do you mean? | ||
| And it's like, Jamie, pull that up. | ||
| And then he's like, whoa, peanuts grow underground? | ||
| He's like, yes. | ||
| He's like, wow. | ||
| And then he says something like, he's like, The meme is, he goes, yeah, they couldn't grow on trees because squirrels would eff them up. | ||
| Could you imagine that? | ||
| Squirrels would be effing up peanut trees. | ||
| Squirrels are basically like little chimps. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It would make C-SPAN so interesting if Joe Rogan was Speaker of the House. | |
| Nobody would turn it off. | ||
| There's a reason why he's got the biggest podcast in the world. | ||
| I'm sorry, C-SPAN, you should be lobbying for Joe Rogan to be Speaker of the House if you want your ratings to go up. | ||
| Right, and then get some new ad deals for Congress. | ||
| Suddenly it's legitimately It depends on what we want. | ||
| Do we want an entertaining time or do we want a productive time? | ||
| And maybe Joe Rogan would be productive. | ||
| I really want the borders closed. | ||
| Trump would be really entertaining on top of it all. | ||
| Because Trump, no one's gonna be able to go against him. | ||
| Trump's gonna come out and be like, we need to impeach Biden who wants to run against Donald Trump. | ||
| You're gonna go up for re-election in a year and you're gonna be the one guy who said, I told Trump no. | ||
| But the Senate wouldn't take up any of the legislation that they passed, and it would never get past the president's desk. | ||
| There's still subpoena power. | ||
| He's going to be like, it wouldn't investigate. | ||
| And yes, and Jim Jordan, is he going to do it? | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| McCarthy didn't do it. | ||
| Well, House Oversight had a thing today. | ||
| Donald Trump will say, I want subpoenas on these people. | ||
| And then the moderate Republicans, they call them, will have to go back to the districts and say, we told Trump no. | ||
| Knowing Trump's approval rating and his polling levels, they're all going to be like, I can't take that risk. | ||
| Unless they want to join the Democratic Party. | ||
| Which many of them might. | ||
| Well, not many. | ||
| I'd say maybe a handful would be like, fine, I guess I'm a Democrat now. | ||
| I really don't think so. | ||
| It's all going the other direction. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I think they don't even change their party. | ||
| They just become because because what they did, they made they made it like these are the way that they they break up MAGA Republican versus every other Republican. | ||
| It's to be like, no, you can be a Republican. | ||
| You can be Adam Kinzinger and you can be Liz Cheney, but you cannot be Matt Gaetz. | ||
| Like, this is the difference. | ||
| That's the line. | ||
| That's too far. | ||
| Yes, they write articles. | ||
| I think the New York Times, you can probably pull it up, wrote an article about the difference between Republicans and MAGA Republicans, just like a tutorial so you know what was good Republican and what was bad Republican. | ||
| But this is a divide-and-conquer technique. | ||
| Well, yeah, because they want to maintain the uniparty. | ||
| Yes, exactly. | ||
| That's what it's really all about. | ||
| Let's go back to the Culture War stuff, because we had that White Pill article. | ||
| I want to read you this article, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| I'm trying to make things happy. | ||
| We got big news! | ||
| Deadline reports The Daily Wire is making a live-action Snow White movie starring conservative YouTuber Brett Cooper. | ||
| Watch the teaser. | ||
| It's for their... I think BentKey is their children's streaming service? | ||
| Conservative media company Daily Wire is making its own live-action adaptation of the Brothers Grimm fairy tale Snow White called Snow White and the Evil Queen. | ||
| The film, which is set to release in 2024, will be the first feature-length production of the company's kids entertainment platform called Bentke, which will star Brett Cooper, host of the platform's show The Comment Section. | ||
| They have the trailer here. | ||
| You can watch it. | ||
| I don't want to play it. | ||
| Or maybe we should. | ||
| How was it? | ||
| Did you watch it? | ||
| It's really short. | ||
| I'll just I'm just gonna play it because I think it's news relevant | ||
|
unidentified
|
Once upon a time In time a prince would come | |
| I'm going to be a good boy. | ||
| Is this Bart Cooper singing? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Once upon a time, but now that time is gone. | ||
| I'm really excited, but I only have one issue. | ||
| I don't think they should have cast Brett Cooper. | ||
| Because I just feel like if you're a political commentator and personality, trying to push you into scripted and fiction is just kind of like... | ||
| You know, like for Ian, it kind of makes sense because he's not a political commentator personality. | ||
| He is an actor first and it's kind of obvious in the way he views politics. | ||
| No offense, but I think people understand he's not, this is not his main thing. | ||
| But then when they watch him do like the bits and the shorts and the cast castle stuff, they're like, wow, he knows how to act. | ||
| Well, yeah, it's like, that's his thing. | ||
| But, I will say, what's really funny about this is, you know, Disney's putting out their new Snow White, and they're doing this, like, Snow White and the Seven Companions thing. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Where they got rid of the dwarves. | ||
| Because Peter Dinklage didn't want any other dwarves to have jobs. | ||
| And then other dwarf people were like, why are you ruining roles for us? | ||
| Right, I think that's so ridiculous, especially when you look at The Wizard of Oz and how all of those dwarves got to meet each other and start families and fall in love and stuff. | ||
| Like, the hell, Peter Dinklage? | ||
| But I will say, Brett Cooper fits the role substantially better than Rachel Zegler, or Zegler, whatever her name is. | ||
| She also probably likes it better. | ||
| I mean, Rachel Zegler hates the role. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| She hates the story. | ||
| But like, I'm actually really interested to watch the Disney version. | ||
| I haven't had Disney Plus since the concentration camp thing they supported. | ||
| So I'm just like, yeah, I'm not gonna watch it. | ||
| The concentration? | ||
| You mean the Gina Carano thing? | ||
| No, Disney plus thanked the security forces in, uh, was it in Shenzhen? | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Where, where, where the concentration camps are. | ||
| Oh my goodness. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And I was like, um, that is really creepy. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I didn't even see that. | ||
| We'll see ourselves out. | ||
| I'm like, Disney does a lot of things that I think are cringe and woke, and I always tell people like, yeah, but I don't expect everyone to just cancel all of their, uh, what do you guys think about, cancel all their entertainment right away. | ||
| We need to create alternatives. | ||
| But like, when they thanked the security forces that are enforcing, like, that we acknowledge as a genocide, like, you know, I'm just not gonna give you any money. | ||
| But, uh, but anyway, I'm really interested, despite all that, to see how they handle the seven companions. | ||
| It's like, which one's gonna be like dopey and doc and you know what I mean? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, they're probably gonna be like Wokey and you know they them and Do you remember when Marvel tried doing like the new mutants? | |
| I think it was yeah, and they had snowflake and safe space were two of the characters They made this is what they're gonna do with them. | ||
| They can't they can't insult people by calling them sneezy. | ||
| That's that's that's ableist Why didn't they do a snow white in the poly cool? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh? | |
| And she's like, I don't think you're onto something. | ||
| That was too racy for them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Too racy? | |
| Have you seen the people in these polycules? | ||
| They're not racy, particularly. | ||
| I'm just saying, because he was like, that's too far. | ||
| Just send a message to Ashley St. | ||
| Clair. | ||
| She's at the Babylon Bee. | ||
| I think that we should do this. | ||
| Ashley, if you're out there... Snow White will be played by like... Snow White and the Polycule. | ||
| It's a morbidly obese woman, and she's got a bunch of guys all around her, and she's like, I don't need a prince because I've got all this. | ||
| And the guys are like, we're happy. | ||
| Well, and the guys are mostly trans. | ||
| They're mostly trans. | ||
| And would the Wicked Queen be hot as opposed to the Snow White in this version? | ||
| Okay, wait. | ||
| Yeah, like... Wait, wait, wait. | ||
| The Wicked Queen is like her sister. | ||
| She's like, your lifestyle's weird. | ||
| I have a legit question about how Daily Wire is doing Snow White. | ||
| Are they going to make, it's nobody in the Evil Queen, okay? | ||
| Is the Evil Queen going to be a communist? | ||
| And I don't mean like literally, like they make a movie and the Queen walks out and she's got like a sickle, you know, hammer or whatever, but is it going to be an analogy for merit and independence and the Evil Queen is jealous communism, right? | ||
| I certainly hope that the Evil Queen is vain and power hungry. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Like she's supposed to be in the story. | ||
| Here's what they should do. | ||
| They should be like, the evil queen retains power by telling all the suffering people that she's actually helping them and that it's better this way. | ||
| And then Snow White is like, no, no, lift yourselves up, work hard and defeat the evil queen. | ||
| I hope it's a story about individualism and is not involved in the political realm at all. | ||
| Yeah, I hope it's about vanity and struggles of aging and youth. | ||
| I don't know that it has to be tied to political ideology. | ||
| And the value of love over seeking to dominate your opposition. | ||
| There is a part in the original Disney Snow White that haunts me to this day. | ||
| It's when Snow White's baking her pie and then she looks up and it just has the wicked queen in the window and has the old lady and it just, it's nightmare fuel. | ||
| This is crazy, look at this. | ||
| Daily Wire says Bent Key will be available at launch with 150 episodes of 18 shows, including four Bent Key originals. | ||
| New episodes are due to arrive every Saturday morning. | ||
| Oh, Saturday morning! | ||
| Cartoons! | ||
| Yay! | ||
| So we're talking about what we're trying to do, and it's substantially smaller than what the Daily Wire is doing, but we're launching the coffee shop, Casbrew, up in, everyone probably knows where it is now, Marnsburg. | ||
| And we're going to do the anti-Times Square. | ||
| But the main reason we want to do it is not that we think we're going to get super wealthy off having a coffee shop. | ||
| It's that Saturday mornings are when we invite families to come in for a catered breakfast with their kids. | ||
| And you know what we'll do? | ||
| We'll play the Daily Wire's cartoons because we know they're new and they're going to be good for families and kids. | ||
| And of course, I'll talk to the Daily Wire first. | ||
| I'll just rip their content and play it for everybody, but I'm sure they'll be cool with it. | ||
| You should probably just rip their content and play it for everybody. | ||
| There's literally no reason not to do that. | ||
| I'm sure if I asked Jeremy, I was like, hey, we want to play Saturday morning, your Saturday morning cartoons for families at our coffee shop. | ||
| He'd be like, please, like tell them to tell their friends. | ||
| I really like that they did this for kids and I really wish them the best with it. | ||
| I hope that they have a lot of success. | ||
| We've been starved for content like that for our children. | ||
| So I really, really appreciate it. | ||
| So thank you guys. | ||
| I mean, look, Brett Cooper is probably really good in this role. | ||
| She fits the role better than Rachel Ziegler, and she's got an amazing singing voice. | ||
| I'm just kind of like, you've already... She's a political commentator, you know? | ||
| Unless she's transitioning back to acting. | ||
| I mean, that was her origin, right? | ||
| Yeah, she's coming from that to be a political commentator. | ||
| I think, for me, more than anything, I am kind of tired of the remakes of, you know, Disney classics and all these things. | ||
| I'd be really curious to see their original content. | ||
| They're saying there's all these shows, or If they were to take some other folk tale that has so many there's so many like there's all over the place. | ||
| Yeah, there was like a whole bunch of stories from the Abenaki and Algonquin tribes in New England. | ||
| Yeah, and they were recorded there was this like what in the 18 whatever's you know, this anthropologist went around and recorded all of the stories from the aging Native Americans who were basically on their way out. | ||
| They were like, you know, old people dying. | ||
| The stories weren't going to last forever. | ||
| And he wrote them all down. | ||
| And then, you know, published a book of all of these fascinating stories. | ||
| Like there was this one about this woman who, she lives with her parents and she falls in love with this guy. | ||
| And her parents are like, no, no, he's a terrible guy. | ||
| And then she runs away from home to be with this guy and goes to live with him and eventually her parents go to find her and she's like all alone by this lake because it turns out that she married a sea serpent. | ||
| See, this is the thing. | ||
| I am ready for everyone to start embracing these oral stories. | ||
| There's the story of the Chinoo, which is this like ice heart person. | ||
| These are all fascinating stories. | ||
| And of course this anthropologist was like a white guy from Harvard, I'm pretty sure, and his book has been widely discredited because he was white and recording these stories. | ||
| He's the wrong color, God forbid. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And they're fascinating stories, but I would love to see also some of the other grim fairy tales. | ||
| Yeah, I think that there's more content than we give credit to and the fact that I get why it's like oh we had this Rachel Ziegler thing so now we should make our own Snow White but I'd actually like to see Daily Wire just embrace more expansive American culture and the folktales that come with both European and American culture that we don't already have because it's when they do their own original stuff that's when I think they're at their strongest. | ||
| I don't really need to see another version of Snow White. | ||
| And it would be great to have more American myth and legend in our daily, you know, content and storytelling. | ||
| I would love that. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| One of my favorite, I guess, underrated fairy tales is called Princess Furball. | ||
| Oh, that's cute. | ||
| Yes, it's adorable. | ||
| And it's just about this princess whose family had passed and then she was supposed to be sent away to go marry some, like, troll. | ||
| And she was like, okay, but you need to do this favor for me. | ||
| I'm going to need three dresses, one as bright as the sun, one as bright as the moon, and one as dark as the night sky. | ||
| And she was able to… and then she wanted a fur coat made of the fur of a thousand different animals. | ||
| And she made all these requests because she's like, they're never going to be able to do this. | ||
| And they did it. | ||
| And the king… The fur coat sounds really mean. | ||
| Yes, I know, right? | ||
| Peter is livid. | ||
| I would. | ||
| I would. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| A thousand animals from one coat? | ||
| And then she shoves these dresses, which are these big elaborate dresses, into these walnut shells and puts them in her pocket. | ||
| And then they find her. | ||
| So this other kingdom finds her because she runs away. | ||
| She doesn't marry the troll. | ||
| She runs away with her coat and her walnuts. | ||
| Her walnut suitcases. | ||
| Her walnut suitcases, right? | ||
| And they find her. | ||
| So this other king finds her hiding in like a tree and they think she's an animal because she's covered in this coat of a thousand furs. | ||
| And so they're like, oh, and they realize she's a human. | ||
| They're like, oh, well, you can be a slave in our kitchen. | ||
| She's like, okay, cool. | ||
| So she goes, she's a slave in the kitchen, and then she decides she wants to sneak away to the ball, you know, and that's, I don't want to spoil the end of Princess Furball for everybody, but you know, it gets, it gets better than that. | ||
| So I would, I would do a Princess Furball. | ||
| That's the thing. | ||
| There are so many cool stories, both written and folklore, that have passed down from different cultures. | ||
| I'd love to just move away from just recycling the same ones that Disney already made. | ||
| I agree. | ||
| It's cooler to see original stuff, even if we're actually not original. | ||
| There are also remakes of Disney's interpretations of the stories instead of retellings of the original fables. | ||
| There are remakes of redheads in Disney. | ||
| There are just no redheads. | ||
| They get rid of them. | ||
| Well, you're not acknowledging that as a global minority. | ||
| The Daily Wire's got a redhead on Bandkey. | ||
| That's not an original redhead. | ||
| No, there's no way. | ||
| It's too uniform. | ||
| This is their launch, I suppose. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Maybe that's part of the whole message. | ||
| Like, we're not going to delete the redheads. | ||
| Well, you guys are a genetic global minority. | ||
| I don't understand why no one advocates for you. | ||
| You should. | ||
| Because we're not wimps. | ||
| We don't care that people don't erase us. | ||
| We're like, whatever. | ||
| You should be louder about it. | ||
| I don't think this cause gets enough attention. | ||
| The one thing I disagree with is the Muppet. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh. | |
| I don't know if you can legally call it a muppet, because it's like a protected term or whatever. | ||
| But I've just never been a fan of like the weird puppet things. | ||
| I don't like the kids' puppet shows. | ||
| We've got another one down here. | ||
| Sesame Street, fine, I guess, whatever. | ||
| The cartoons, I think, are good. | ||
| What about Fraggle Rock? | ||
| Did you not like Fraggle Rock? | ||
| I did not. | ||
|
unidentified
|
not know you don't like I despise Muppets you just but I really like the | |
| Muppets I don't like I did like Fraggle Rock miss piggy is just a is just exists | ||
| to make fun of Liz Cheney but I'm not I am NOT in something with Cheney I am | ||
| saying that I should people create but I mean like that's the value of miss | ||
| piggy to mock someone like this Jenny Did you like Kermit when he was in those car commercials? | ||
| I didn't watch the Muppets growing up but I do remember those car commercials where it was always it was like for a hybrid car and so they brought out Kermit. | ||
| I watched the Muppet show on TV. | ||
| It was on TV. | ||
| Oh, Kermit being green? | ||
| I get it. | ||
| Yeah, I get it. | ||
| That's why it's a hybrid. | ||
| And I think it was on during the American Idol commercial break. | ||
| I could be wrong. | ||
| Yeah, The Muppet Show was on TV and I believe it was on Sunday nights. | ||
| And I watched it. | ||
| And The Muppet Show was really cool because it was like behind the scenes. | ||
| It was like they were putting on a show and Scooter was the stage manager. | ||
| I loved that. | ||
| See, I think there is space for original content. | ||
| That's an example of original content that you can't just be like, so we're going to make our own version of the Muppet Show that's essentially the same thing. | ||
| Like, pick something new, pick something fresh. | ||
| And then they get Muppet babies. | ||
| And they get all the spinoffs. | ||
| I appreciate that. | ||
| So when you load the website, this is what it looks like. | ||
| I like chinchillas. | ||
| Because it also, when it loads, it then jumps to a thing like sign up now, but this is what it shows before showing the sign up now. | ||
| Oh, is she reading a book about herself? | ||
| Is that what she's doing? | ||
| Probably, I don't know. | ||
| She is? | ||
| Is that her name? | ||
| Narcissism rampant! | ||
| Wait a minute, what values are they promoting here? | ||
| Maybe she's playing the evil queen, and that's the vanity and the power-hungry. | ||
| She's a redhead too, though. | ||
| I know. | ||
| Unfortunately. | ||
| But I guess one of my questions too is, so a lot of the cartoons for kids are, they don't really teach lessons. | ||
| It's just kind of kids' entertainment, so it's silly, like Fairly Oddparents. | ||
| So it's like not... | ||
| It's not inappropriate for the kids, but it's also not educational. | ||
| I'm wondering if, are they going for more educational life lessons, you know? | ||
| I think that I don't think that all entertainment needs that stuff, and I don't think that it should be inorganically created. | ||
| I do like the way there are the undertones. | ||
| Like Jack Posobiec wrote that book about the island of ice cream, and I have that book, but it's got all these undertones about why meritocracy is good, why communism is bad, but it doesn't read that way to a child. | ||
| No, that's a great, I like his book too. | ||
| Yes, it's wonderful. | ||
| Billy the Cowboy Hamster. | ||
| But I like to see stories organically have a morality to them as opposed to have it be the morality is the reason you're making the story. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Like you want it to be part of the narrative intentionally, yeah. | ||
| More blended. | ||
| More blended. | ||
| And not about like, I have an ideological perspective and now I'm going to make a cartoon. | ||
| Like the proud family. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I was listening to this whole thing about, um, I was doing so, you know, Israel war, whatever. | ||
| I don't know very much about Israel. | ||
| I don't know very much about any of it. | ||
| So I started doing like some research, research and digging into it. | ||
| And Hamas had this, um, Children's Show, where it was basically teaching children that the best thing they can do in life is be jihadis. | ||
| Oh my goodness. | ||
| But that makes sense. | ||
| Why wouldn't they make that? | ||
| Well, they did make that, and so the first main character died as a jihadi, and they had more characters after that of children giving their lives to be jihadis. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| And that was on TV in Gaza. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| I mean, it's not like – so in Christian Face, there's martyrs. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| But we don't preach that. | ||
| Like, it is good to be a martyr. | ||
| Here's a show about martyrs, and you're going to be a martyr, and these children are martyring. | ||
| So it's just weird the way that it's presented in this way. | ||
| Well, it was a shift to like from the research I've done anyway, you know, it was a shift in the it became like a far it was a extremist Islamic group, right? | ||
| So it wasn't like you're you're just everyday Muslims. | ||
| It became this extremist idea. | ||
| That infiltrated incrementally and then eventually what they started to do was like when Hamas was founded in like 88 and they started attacks in 89 and it kept going but then they started providing and then they won the election you know against like what Fatah I think it was but they they started providing all these social services because I was like why did the people of Gaza elect Hamas to lead them in 2006 after Israel withdrew. | ||
| Why did they do that? | ||
| And so I was trying to figure that out, too. | ||
| And it was because Hamas was providing all of these social services. | ||
| They were providing schools and hospitals and all of these things. | ||
| And so they offered this big promise. | ||
| But the promise comes with this horrific price. | ||
| I have a friend who lived under the Taliban. | ||
| And this is this is probably six, seven, eight years ago now. | ||
| he would write me and he'd tell me all the good things that the Taliban did for them. | ||
| Right. | ||
| A lot of social services. | ||
| Mao did things, too, other than just kill all the academics. | ||
| That's how you win supporters, right? | ||
| You offer them what they need. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And I mean, you know, the lessons of Che Guevara tell us anything. | ||
| It's that, like, if you're going to do this kind of revolution and take control, you need the support of the people to do it. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| And other people think they depend on you. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And then you kind of look at the social programs in America and it kind of answers all the questions. | ||
| And then you start to wonder too, like, what are, you know, what we've given up in return for those social programs is pretty extreme. | ||
| Thankfully, not as extreme, I think. | ||
| But ours were phased in over time, so people became used to them. | ||
| It's incremental. | ||
| Me and Jack Pasobuk, we're talking about this, the incrementalism of evil. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And they let you become comfortable. | ||
| The more migrants that we have here, the more social programs we're going to need and the more reliant people come. | ||
| So it's definitely a trickle. | ||
| And we had a writer at Human Events who did a deep dive and comparing all of the different things of what jihad is and like comparing it to the Quran and like digging into different translations. | ||
| She's kind of this crazy genius actually. | ||
| But the first stage of jihad is when you're Islamic and you're a minority in the culture and you just normalize your existence. | ||
| You like say that you're just really nice and all of this stuff and then it's just the incremental approach. | ||
| It's really terrifying to look at some of these ideologies of like Total hatred of the other and how it morphs and takes over. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Some of the Hadith are just literally written about that. | ||
| Almost exactly. | ||
| Just about being against somebody else and about like how you're to struggle against the person because that's what I mean. | ||
| The word means struggle. | ||
| So that's a better way to look at it. | ||
| But you're right. | ||
| All that stuff. | ||
| Yeah, it's really crazy. | ||

| He is once again the first Super Chat saying, if you wanted to destroy the US, yet maintain some plausible deniability, would you do anything different from what Biden has done? | ||
| Agreed. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It's like, it's just abject failure. | ||
| Yeah, it's demoralization, destabilization, crisis, and normalization. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Clint Torres says, howdy people. | ||
| Tim, forgive my misspeak about your upcoming discussion about religion, but my misstatement still stands. | ||
| I'm by no means Catholic, but as I trust you for your honest news, I trust Father Mike Schmitz on theology. | ||
| Yeah, the plan is to get fresh from Fresh and Fit Ian and Seamus Coghlan, and we're gonna do a Culture War episode discussing religion and spirituality. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It'll be cool. | |
| Oh, interesting. | ||
| Which will be wild. | ||
| I think Seamus is a really interesting thinker. | ||
| Seamus is going to be like pulling his hair the whole time being like, guys, guys, guys. | ||
| But I think a lot of people ask Shane, I mean, I know personally I ask him tons of questions about, you know, how he got to where he is. | ||
| He's probably prepared to argue the point. | ||
| But I'd be curious to hear the other perspective and what questions they would raise. | ||
| I could talk about that all day, like religion and faith. | ||
| I'm going to have Ian on my show on Sunday, I think, to talk about spirituality. | ||
| Oh, on Spaces? | ||
| Nice. | ||
| Steven says, says, pray for my brothers and sisters in the M.E.U. | ||
| that is deployed. | ||
| May God keep them safe. | ||
| Hear, hear. | ||
| God bless. | ||
| Absolutely, man. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| What do we have? | ||
| Let's grab some more super chits. | ||
| What is this? | ||
| Someone mentioning jet fuel and steel beams. | ||
| One person, nonpartisan kitty says, bringeth thy bocus on today's show. | ||
| Well, I mean, we would, but Ian's not here. | ||
| And usually he's the one who'll run down and go grab him. | ||
| But bocus. | ||
| It's tough. | ||
| I saw him the other day, and he was just sitting by his water. | ||
| We have the little flower automatically that sprays the water out. | ||
| And I went up in the morning, and he was just sitting there looking kind of lethargic. | ||
| And when I came down, he was in the exact same spot, which is not a good sign. | ||
| However... | ||
| Later that night, he followed me downstairs as I was leaving into the green room. | ||
| And then apparently after I left, he started zipping around running. | ||
| Or whenever you like, if I go to fill a water bottle, he'll come running out of nowhere. | ||
| I don't even know where he is. | ||
| He'll suddenly appear because he really likes the faucet water. | ||
| So sometimes I think he's not doing too well. | ||
| And other times I think he's just not correctly motivated. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Well, zoomies are good. | ||
| He's been alive like a year longer than he was supposed to. | ||
| Like a year ago he was stumbling, falling over, and just crapping where he stood. | ||
| And we thought that was it. | ||
| And then we put him on like a drug cocktail. | ||
| Which is like, he's got a heart defect, he's got bad kidneys, so... | ||
| I miss having cats. | ||
| Yeah, let me know, like, send me some pictures. | ||
| I can paint him for you. | ||
| I'd like to do that. | ||
| Oh yeah, alright. | ||
| Alright, what do we have? | ||
| Uh, let's see. | ||
| Alex Hilbert says, I saw y'all were eating MREs last week. | ||
| You better get used to picking the right ones, Private Poole. | ||
| If World War III goes down, based on the numbers in my unit, there will be a large draft. | ||
| Yeah, and I'm gonna, I'm, you know, what am I looking at? | ||
| Five more months until I'm 38. | ||
| So if this war breaks out, oh, 38 year olds, you're, you're, you're getting picked up. | ||
| No question. | ||
| I mean, we're not first in line, you know, I mean, Ukraine's doing women 18 to 60. | ||
| So, right, right, right. | ||
| But to be fair, I am rich, and rich people don't get drafted. | ||
| So all I gotta do is make the right contribution to a senator, and I'm good. | ||
| But in all seriousness, that's basically how it's always operated. | ||
| If you were rich, you got out of the draft. | ||
| Well connected, that's why so many presidents wouldn't... Well, what they would do back in the day, what they would do is, if like a wealthy family had their son drafted, they would pay for someone to take his place. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Wow. | ||
| Yeah, crazy. | ||
| It's cool, you can actually see what draft numbers were pulled during the draft, the last one, and I would have been drafted for a guy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Really? | |
| My birthday was pulled, yep. | ||
| My dad's number was called up. | ||
| Is that how they did it? | ||
| They did it by birthday? | ||
| They did it by birthday. | ||
| Yeah, my dad's number was called up, but he didn't have to go. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Why? | |
| Because he's deathly afraid of bees. | ||
| Really? | ||
| What a fascinating way to get out of this. | ||
| So what was interesting is his number came up and he was like, okay, I guess I'm doing this. | ||
| And my mom was like, nope. | ||
| And she like went around and got like a doctor's letter and all this stuff. | ||
| And he didn't end up going. | ||
| That's great. | ||
| I think eventually he told me once, and I don't know if he still feels this way because now he's like in his 70s and he's recovering from cancer and he's like very mellowed out and sort of fast. | ||
| He's like really brilliant, my dad. | ||
| He's in a reflective phase of life. | ||
| Reflective phase of life and he's got like a ton of kids and we're all weird, but whatever. | ||
| But he told me once that he had some regrets about not having gone when his, you know, peers had gone. | ||
| Yeah, of course. | ||
| Alright, what do we have here? | ||
| I'm grateful because I would not be alive. | ||
| RWBY Nora saying, Appalachian Nights is the best cup of coffee I've ever had. | ||
| Please think about a app. | ||
| Night... an app? | ||
| Night Dark Chocolate Mocha Blend? | ||
| Thank you all much love. | ||
| A mocha blend would be great. | ||
| Well, the coffee originally is like, we're opening a coffee shop, so we wanted to get the coffee. | ||
| That was the fastest and easiest thing to do. | ||
| The coffee's been wildly successful, so... | ||
| I keep meaning to buy some. | ||
| Honestly, it is my favorite coffee. | ||
| You haven't already? | ||
| I thought you liked us, Libby. | ||
| I'm a member. | ||
| You're fired. | ||
| But the coffee shop is just taking forever because of construction and permitting reasons, which sucks. | ||
| And now winter's coming. | ||
| So we'll see. | ||
| You know, it's like the coffee shop was supposed to be open like six months ago, then seven months or five months ago, then four and three. | ||
| And it was supposed to be open in two weeks. | ||
| And now it's going to be another year. | ||
| Who knows? | ||
| But we are planning on a bunch of other stuff, so... But we do have the coffee, which is cool. | ||
| Right, and that's why I was like, we're, you know, it's a multi-pronged approach. | ||
| We produce the coffee, we're selling that, we have the website. | ||
| Now we're waiting for the building to get set up. | ||
| Once the building is set up, we're also working on the franchise corporation documents and proper paperwork so that we can start popping these things up all over the place and having people sign up to run them. | ||
| I was excited that we had the K-Cups ready when we were, uh, stuffing gift bags in Miami. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| The K-Cups were there and I hadn't seen them yet. | ||
| Oh, that was cool. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Neglectful Sausages, just remember DS9 Season 5, Episode 11, The Darkness and Light. | ||
| Kira said, you were all valid targets, you didn't belong here. | ||
| About trying to unalive a butler, Cardi, and to DS9's writers, she was the good guy. | ||
| Yeah, that's true. | ||
| She was always the good guy. | ||
| Even though she was a, she had been basically a terrorist. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| That show is good. | ||
| That show is so good. | ||
| It's my favorite Star Trek these days. | ||
| I think I have watched DS9 all the way through. | ||
| Joseph Metzler says, Trump was reported to have told Putin and Xi at the G20 that if they invaded anyone, he would nuke them. | ||
| As in them personally, not their countries. | ||
| I'm sorry, there's just no one like him. | ||
| Where is he when we need him most? | ||
| Oh wait, we didn't elect him. | ||
| He's trying to kill them to their faces. | ||
| He's direct. | ||
| He's an Iowa saying that my personality... He doesn't mince words. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right? | |
| I loved his thing about, like, my personality is why we didn't have wars. | ||
| What is that quote? | ||
| I'm gonna find the quote. | ||
| It's not wrong, though. | ||
| It's correct. | ||
| That's what's great about it. | ||
| My personality kept us out of war, that's what he said. | ||
| I love that. | ||
| I don't talk about my sisters that much but one of my sisters is a redhead and when she was two she had appendicitis but it went undiagnosed for like a week and she was in excruciating pain. | ||
| It was crazy. | ||
| I've told you this story before. | ||
| And when they finally brought her to the right hospital after like three or four trips and the doctor was finally like, Oh yeah, this is appendicitis. | ||
| That's exactly what's going on. | ||
| It looked like shrapnel floating around her abdomen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh God. | |
| She went into surgery and the surgeon came out and was like, she is alive because of the force of her personality. | ||
| And I think this is real with some people. | ||
| And he attributed it to the red hair. | ||
| You said she was like really obstinate. | ||
| She was the most ferocious. | ||
| She was always a ferocious toddler, but she was like, even when she was in excruciating pain, could not be moved. | ||
| It was awful. | ||
| No one cared what was going on. | ||
| It was just like, It was her way and nothing else through the whole thing, and I swear that's what kept her alive. | ||
| And I think that's why Donald Trump saying, the force of my personality kept out of this war, is actually an extremely valid point. | ||
| Some people are just meant to be in certain situations, their personalities can handle it. | ||
| Thomas Jefferson was a redhead. | ||
| Raymond G. Stanley Jr. | ||
| says, question for y'all. | ||
| How do you guys think a draft would go? | ||
| Will families move out of the country, join up, or tell the government to go suck an egg? | ||
| Depends on the circumstances by which we enter the war. | ||
| If right now Joe Biden just says, we have war, have a nice day. | ||
| Yeah, then yeah, draft would never fly. | ||
| If something happens to the president, then sure, many of the MAGA types are gonna be like, no way, I'm not getting involved. | ||
| But a lot of more liberal and moderate and NPC-like families would have no problem whatsoever in that instance. | ||
| In fact, you'll probably get a lot of conservatives too, who are gonna have the attitude of like, I may not like Joe Biden, he may have been a bad guy, but you've, you know, this is our family, right? | ||
| It's kind of like when you got your brother and sister who fight all the time and hate each other, but then outside someone calls the girl ugly and the guy's like, don't talk about my sister! | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Cause like, you know, I'm allowed to argue with my family, not you. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Or insult my family. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Anyone with a lot of siblings I think can really relate to that. | |
| Let's grab some more Super Chats. | ||
| Blanket Senpai says, Hey Tim, please try Cyberpunk 2077 as it deals with topics related to the show, warring ideological factions, corporation wars, technology, and AI. | ||
| I tried playing it. | ||
| I couldn't do it. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Did you play it? | ||
| Uh, no. | ||
| My little brother did, I think, but not really for me. | ||
| I'm not much of a gamer in case anyone hasn't noticed. | ||
| Pinochet's helicopter tour says, Marines age cap on entrance is 28. | ||
| All other branches of military is 35. | ||
| However, you can get a waiver. | ||
| In World War II, up to 64 year olds were drafted for war. | ||
| That's true. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yikes. | |
| I think, I like the idea that if you vote, you hold the vote, should we go to war? | ||
| If you vote yes, we draft you. | ||
| You personally are going, Lindsey Graham. | ||
| Oh yeah, Lindsey Graham's on the front line. | ||
| Yeah, I don't understand. | ||
| I mean, he's in office until 2027 and yet he's like, get ready for all the kids I'm going to send to war. | ||
| It's too much. | ||
| All right, where are we at? | ||
| SensiteTank94 says, Tim, YouTube is aggressively hiding the live show today. | ||
| I love the slow rumble transition for the long game. | ||
| Keep it up, brother. | ||
| Independent media will save us all. | ||
| Keep at it. | ||
| Friday, I had a really, really hard time finding the link to the show because I wasn't on. | ||
| So I was trying to find it. | ||
| I had to go. | ||
| I looked it up on your channel. | ||
| I looked at everything. | ||
| No, no. | ||
| Friday, when Dinesh was on. | ||
| And I ended up only being able to find the link because Ian had tweeted it out. | ||
| I could not find it on YouTube. | ||
| Even the preview thing wasn't showing up. | ||
| It was crazy. | ||
| What do you mean? | ||
| The preview thing isn't even showing up? | ||
| Some people will go to the YouTube channel itself and it's not there. | ||
| Yeah, that's what happened to me on Friday. | ||
| That's wacky. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yup. | |
| And I was thinking it was like everything we thought might happen or because of culture war, like, I don't know. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| That's why- You get a live page and it's literally just not gonna be there. | ||
| Won't show up at all. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yup, yup. | |
| Yeah, it was crazy. | ||
| Yup! | ||
| Rumble and X are the future. | ||
| YouTube is dying. | ||
| And also sort of offing itself, it seems. | ||
| Like, why would you hive such a high-profile live show? | ||
| Well, it's because we have the wrong political opinions. | ||
| Yeah, it's probably ESGDEI-related. | ||
| I wonder, though. | ||
| I really do. | ||
| Look, there's a lot of... We were skating today in the garage, and I'm like, for the first time in a year or whatever, turned the TV on, because we have a TV in the park. | ||
| And I was playing YouTube music videos. | ||
| We got a bunch of commercials, pro-Israel commercials, very graphic commercials. | ||
| Crazy. | ||
| I can't believe they were playing some of these commercials. | ||
| But I wonder, if you made a YouTube show that was explicitly pro-Israel, pro-intervention, would it be prominently displayed on the front page for everybody? | ||
| I kind of think it would. | ||
| I think you'd get hundreds of thousands of... If we came out right away on this show and started saying things like, we must intervene, I'm willing to bet YouTube would promote us front page. | ||
| I'd get a phone call from Susan. | ||
| She'd be like, your show's doing so well. | ||
| We're doing a new pilot program for marketing. | ||
| We'd love to promote you. | ||
| That's interesting. | ||
| I wonder if that would happen. | ||
| Probably. | ||
| They tolerate us because we're like moderate. | ||
| Hey, civilians shouldn't die. | ||
| We're not for intervention. | ||
| But Hamas are terrorists and what they did was evil and wrong. | ||
| And so they're like, OK, well, it's not all bad. | ||
| You know, if we came out like I'd be curious to see what would happen to the likes of, you know, Hassan or many other leftists who are like cheering on terrorists. | ||
| Interesting to see. | ||
| But apparently, I've been hearing that, um, it's an interesting dynamic because, uh, Hasan does that podcast with Ethan Klein. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| And Ethan Klein's Jewish. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| And I'm pretty sure his wife is from Israel. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Was like, she was in the IDF, I think, right? | ||
| Yes, she was, yeah. | ||
| And so it must be, like, really weird now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Have they released any episodes since? | |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| I need a body language expert to start reacting to their show and be like, obvious tension in the room. | ||
| It's a really weird thing to see that these people, men on the left, have no moral positions other than they hate the United States and they hate the right. | ||
| So that's why they say, like, queer is for Palestine or whatever. | ||
| It's completely contradictory. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It makes no sense. | |
| It's completely illegal in Gaza. | ||
| It's a 10-year prison sentence. | ||
| That's the actual hard law, 10 years in prison. | ||
| But they say these things and it's just like eventually the dam breaks and a question of ideology emerges where they realize they were never aligned with each other. | ||
| They actually just agree on who they hated. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Well that was interesting too. | ||
| That was like part of my research. | ||
| So Israel expelled a bunch of others. | ||
| I forget when. | ||
| Maybe it was in the 80s. | ||
| Israel expelled a bunch of Hamas guys. | ||
| Maybe it was after. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| They expelled a bunch of Hamas guys to Lebanon and then Hezbollah and Hamas teamed up even though one is Sunni and one is Shia. | ||
| They were like, that's okay. | ||
| We all hate the Jews. | ||
| Yeah, right. | ||
| That's what I've been saying. | ||
| I've been worried about it. | ||
| It is clearly happening now, as it happens more and more. | ||
| And then Iran, like, helped train them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, exactly. | |
| And BRICS were negotiating a truce between the Shiites and the Sunni. | ||
| Yeah, I don't like any of that. | ||
| And then they'll just all come for us. | ||
| Highly sus. | ||
| This is interesting. | ||
| Colt Zipriani. | ||
| Someone's gonna have to break this down for me. | ||
| He says, thoughts on the Army's Lake City ammunition plant, operated by Winchester, is seizing sales to civilians. | ||
| Civvy sales account for 30%, but the Fed needs the ammo. | ||
| Fortune tellers follow the money. | ||
| Are you saying that the Army is basically buying out all the ammo with a first right to purchase over civilians? | ||
| From what they're saying, that's what it looks like, yeah. | ||
| Remember when everyone was concerned about the IRS buying a bunch of bullets? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Why are they buying hollow points? | ||
| It's making it weird. | ||
| Well, it's because they have special agents who are armed. | ||
| Yeah, true. | ||
| But this is all, like, right in time for Halloween. | ||
| It's not just the spookiest, weird, scary world. | ||
| Well, it's October. | ||
| October is always messed up. | ||
| Do you remember in 2016 where there were all the killer clowns? | ||
| Yes, I do remember that. | ||
| What a time. | ||
| Right, that was weird. | ||
| And we just all pretend that that never happened. | ||
| What if they didn't go away? | ||
| They're just looking around and we got distracted. | ||
| Yeah, that's true. | ||
| They got bored. | ||
| They're like, alright, they're not paying attention anymore. | ||
| Country Tunic says, if a draft is issued, neither me nor my friends or family are going to serve an illegitimate government and go die for the elites. | ||
| Yeah, you'll go to jail. | ||
| The thing is, I think we all agree on this, but the draft, I think they ultimately want a draft, but they know they can't do it until they have some sort of rallying moment for patriotic and nationalist support. | ||
| And I just don't think Joe Biden's the guy to make that happen. | ||
| Maybe that's why they're sending him to Israel. | ||
| Something happens to Joe Biden and then Trump gets elected and then it's Donald Trump calling for it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Because I think people would serve if Trump asked them to. | ||
| Yes, but I don't think that if Biden died most people are going to go sign up to go avenge Biden's death. | ||
| Which is a problem for the deep state right now, that Trump is the only one who could get a draft to work. | ||
| Yeah, I agree with you guys. | ||
| Man. | ||
| Hybrid says, Biden going to Israel is a complete setup. | ||
| Everyone can see this as a telegraphed Pearl Harbor Lusitania moment. | ||
| And with that, we should hold all who is allowed accountable in the end, what we the people do. | ||
| I gotta be honest, I really, I think 99.9% Biden goes to Israel, it's boring, and he comes back and then starts preaching about why we need to defend them. | ||
| I'm just saying that there's a concern that it's like, probably a really bad idea to send the president to an active conflict zone like this. | ||
| It doesn't follow a certain pattern. | ||
| It should follow, it follows a pattern it shouldn't follow, which is why it's alarming to us. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| True. | ||
| David Toronto says, if we let a country kill our president, then we have no country. | ||
| Yes, that's my point. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Even if it's a bad one. | |
| Even if it's a bad president. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| That's exactly my, I agree with you there, fella. | ||
| Totally agree. | ||
| Man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| Where are we at? | ||
| Brand Dizzle says, can you think of a better way to get Newsom to be the Dem candidate than sending Biden to an active war zone? | ||
| No, not really. | ||
| It doesn't make sense that they are sending him unless they want something to happen to him. | ||
| What do they think? | ||
| Like, what is the upside is the thing? | ||
| I can't figure out the upside. | ||
| The approval rating of Biden is in the trash. | ||
| Right, but it's not going to get... Well, if something, God forbid, happened to him, or if he went over there and showed a show of strength for America, that could up his number. | ||
| What is a Joe Biden show of strength? | ||
| Not falling down the stairs while he's there? | ||
| Just saying something very... The bar is so low. | ||
| Saying something scripted and direct. | ||
| He can't even do that. | ||
| Like a State of the Union, the way he does that. | ||
| That would be my only way for people to... Or just him going there. | ||
| Do you think they jack him up on drugs so he can do that? | ||
| Oh, absolutely. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| He had IV marks on his hand. | ||
| What if it's not that they target Biden, but like a preschool and then Biden runs into the burning building and like comes out carrying kids and he's like, Come on, I did the best I could! | ||
| And then he just like collapses from smoke inhalation and they're like... He can't run though, that's the only problem. | ||
| Maybe if they gave him a bike that had the training wheels on it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He'll bring his body double and that one will go away. | |
| Enough pharmaceuticals and you could do anything. | ||
| Yeah, true. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Like I said, we were all upset about Ukraine. | ||
| We spent billions of dollars on it. | ||
| He didn't go for a year. | ||
| We're not even that far into this. | ||
| You know what's interesting? | ||
| We spent $113 billion on Ukraine since February 2022. | ||
| $113 billion on Ukraine since February 2022. | ||
| And I think we give Israel per a deal from 2016, it was like $38 billion over 10 years. | ||
| And it's like Israel's done a lot better with that money than Ukraine has done with theirs. | ||
| Well, we're just obviously laundering money through Ukraine. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, yeah. | |
| It's very bad. | ||
| Let's read some more. | ||
| We got The Dude Abides. | ||
| He says, Hey, Tim, hear me out. | ||
| When you guys do the anti-Times Square, you should have a New Year's ball drop in the center as well. | ||
| But instead of a giant glowing ball, it should be a giant glowing rooster. | ||
| Let the cock jokes begin. | ||
| It's actually a really good idea. | ||
| That'd be fun. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I like it. | |
| I thought it'd be really cool. | ||
| It's like you don't have a ball drop or a rooster drop. | ||
| You have a rooster that crows right at the strike of midnight. | ||
| That'd be sick. | ||
| That'd be fun. | ||
| And it's like waking up to a new dawn. | ||
| Yeah, that's cool. | ||
| Rooster wakes you up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, that's beautiful. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| And I think everybody out here, literally everyone out here owns chickens. | ||
| They would all love it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| People don't realize when you live out in West Virginia, like you go hang out, we don't watch the game, we talk chickens. | ||
| Like you go to your buddy's house and you're like, oh, chickens. | ||
| Oh, yeah, roosters. | ||
| Like, oh, I got a rooster too. | ||
| Your really close friend you start talking about, are you going to get goats? | ||
| Because I'm thinking about getting goats. | ||
| I really wanted a sheep. | ||
| It's actually like half true. | ||
| No, I'm not kidding. | ||
| We were talking, me and Hannah-Claire were actually talking about this the other day because I was saying that I wanted to make my own cheese. | ||
| Yeah, and the best idea is to have some sort of goat. | ||
| You probably don't have enough land for a cow. | ||
| But like a sheep? | ||
| You can get a mini cow. | ||
| There's mini cows? | ||
| Yeah, they produce like a gallon of milk per day instead of 12. | ||
| That's all you need. | ||
| That's manageable for your household. | ||
| That is manageable. | ||
| I would be making so many cakes if I had that. | ||
| I'm always just working from Libby's house. | ||
| She makes me pizzas. | ||
| I would make you pizzas and cakes and cookies. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Guys, Libby is the best housewife of all time. | |
| Mom, do we have any dessert? | ||
| And I was like, no, but I could make some cookies. | ||
| And he was like, okay. | ||
| And we made cookies. | ||
| You leave New York and suddenly you're like the best 1950s host. | ||
| No, well, no, I was doing that stuff anyway. | ||
| Oh, sure, but it's better now with your own cow, your own eggs. | ||
| Soon I'm getting a new couch, actually. | ||
| I'm very excited. | ||
| The kids, Charlie, my son and his friend, they broke my couch. | ||
| They were jumping around. | ||
| It was already sort of broken and held together with wood glue. | ||
| This was a long time coming. | ||
| Joshua 029 article 1 section 8 c 11 shall make him out of let shall make shall make him out letters of mark under the great seal and by virtue of these he may attack and seize the property of the aggressor nation without hazard of being condemned as a robber or pirate. | ||
| So, honorary pirates. | ||
| Yep, privateers. | ||
| Corsairs. | ||
| Pirates are way more fun to say, but yes. | ||
| Are we going to have kids in elementary school that are like, when I grow up, I want to be a pirate. | ||
| I mean, that's pretty cool. | ||
| They could actually live their dreams. | ||
| I feel like it's more realistic than becoming an astronaut. | ||
| I mean, as long as they don't say, mom, I want to have a peg leg and no eye. | ||
| And then the mom's like, you know what? | ||
| This is how you identify. | ||
| So yeah, we're going to take you to the doctors and take your eye and your leg because you're a pirate. | ||
| That's who you are. | ||
| Tattoos have increased over the last decade. | ||
| So maybe we are just ready for pirate culture to come back. | ||
| Hey, I mean, there's a bunch of young men my age are looking for work. | ||
| So yeah, sounds like it's a good idea. | ||
| It's a pirate's life for him. | ||
| Dukarm says, Tim, Brett Cooper was a legitimate actress who's been on TV and in movies long before joining the Daily Wire. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| I am aware. | ||
| I know. | ||
| I just feel like for the Daily Wire to have her, you know, multiclass. | ||
| I think when you make a choice to change your career, you know, sometimes you have to stick with it. | ||
| Well, no, I mean, it's just like the Daily Wire doing it just feels like... | ||
| I don't know, man. | ||
| I just feel like you're doing too much. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Well, and like, if she's trying to build her brand as a political commentator, it's not that she couldn't do it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| She couldn't do both things, but it sometimes makes sense to stay in one lane if that's the thing that you're building up. | ||
| I mean, I don't know. | ||
| If she wants to be an actress, let her do what she wants to do. | ||
| Like, this is why I'm never in the Cass Castle stuff for the most part. | ||
| I just, I don't know. | ||
| Like, the music stuff is fine because it's always kind of like a side thing, but starring in movies? | ||
| Like cameos, I think are fine. | ||
| You know, look, I'll just keep it vague. | ||
| There have been people have approached us and be like, would you like to be in a film or no, never going to happen. | ||
| TV show movie. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nope. | |
| I'm not going to do it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I think as long as there's no like overt political messaging in this, then it'll be good. | ||
| But if they try to put too much into it, it's just going to be like, Oh, the cringe factor is just way too high. | ||
| It's just, it's just like right there, but I don't know. | ||
| Hopefully they, hopefully they will. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| Let's just grab, we'll grab a couple more here. | ||
| Thinker4Life says, all superchats over $50 should get free coffee. | ||
| It would just be impossible to actually implement that system. | ||
| Like, if you send a superchat that big, like, we can't track your address and things like that. | ||
| And then you've got sales tax and, oh, heavens. | ||
| Heavens. | ||
| But we are working on protein powder stuff, which is gonna be fun. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| And Alex Stein's coffee is almost done. | ||
| We've got the bags, the designs ready. | ||
| What's it called? | ||
| Alex Stein's Primetime Grind 2x Caffeine. | ||
| Awesome. | ||
| I'm excited about it. | ||
| I like that. | ||
| He's super excited. | ||
| We're super excited. | ||
| Oh, I'm excited. | ||
| That's gonna be good. | ||
| And then we're interested in doing an Ian coffee as well. | ||
| Oh, cool. | ||
| What would Ian's coffee be? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| We gotta talk to Ian about it. | ||
| It would be like caffeine free, like mellow brew. | ||
| I was thinking maybe, yeah, maybe it's like, yeah, maybe it would be like, so I think we have like a light and a dark. | ||
| Single source. | ||
| It would be like single source. | ||
| Yeah, we're doing Focus with Mr. Bocas, which will be our espresso. | ||
| Focus with Mr. Bocas. | ||
| And let's just grab one more, one more super chat. | ||
| What do we have here? | ||
| I would just want to do like a nice Darjeeling tea. | ||
| Hunter Killer says Daily Wire should make a movie about Robert Smalls, the former slave who commandeered a Confederate ship and used it to free slaves. | ||
| That would cause the left to self-destruct into nonsense. | ||
|
unidentified
