Elon Musk has declared war on Disney. | ||
Not only is Gina Carano suing over her termination for her free speech from the show Mandalorian, but Elon Musk has gone further and said that anyone who's been fired to hit him up and he will provide legal support. | ||
I don't know if this means they're going class action, but it looks like Something akin to what we are seeing with the Mark Cuban fiasco. | ||
Mark Cuban, of course, is defending the far left, the DEI in the workplace, which is explicitly, overtly illegal. | ||
Elon Musk has decided to jump into the culture war fray, and he is going after these big corporations, starting with Disney. | ||
So we'll talk a lot about that. | ||
That's big. | ||
Donald Trump has called for a Bud Light boycott ceasefire. | ||
Yep. | ||
Nobody cares. | ||
They're all tweeting back at his, uh, at the post that's being shared from Truth Social saying, Nope! | ||
Doesn't matter what Trump says. | ||
If Bud Light does not apologize, no one is going to buy their beer. | ||
And, uh, we can talk about their weird Super Bowl commercial, I guess, which I think, I think we broke the company. | ||
I have no idea what they're doing at this point. | ||
It's just really bad. | ||
And then we've got some, uh, well, we got some good news. | ||
I guess Tucker Carlson's interviewing Vladimir Putin. | ||
That should, that'll be coming out at some point. | ||
It's not out yet, but that'll be interesting. | ||
And then, uh, uh, We've got some troubling news. | ||
Not that anyone's surprised, but several Republicans defected to join the Democrats to save Mayorkas and his insane border policies. | ||
Wow, this one's really, really incredible. | ||
As bad as it is, rest assured, the Republican Party is only pretending to have your back. | ||
They didn't win in 2020. | ||
The people didn't defeat the Democrats, and this is exactly what many of us predicted. | ||
I think it's fair that we were hopeful, but look where we are now. | ||
So we'll get into all that. | ||
Before we get started, my friends, head over to CastBrew.com to get the best cup of coffee you'll ever have. | ||
Check out our Alex Stein's Primetime Grind 2x Caffeine, but drink responsibly. | ||
We also still have our limited edition Rise of the Birdo Jr. | ||
This thing has been, uh, we did one run of it. | ||
So we haven't sold out, uh, just yet. | ||
We launched it on Halloween, and it's because the minimum, uh, order we could do is 5,000. | ||
And so I figured we'll do one run, but when this is gone, it is gone forever. | ||
So pick up your re-Rise with Roberto Jr. | ||
Halloween Zombie Blend, we call it. | ||
And of course, we've got everyone's favorite Appalachian Nights, which apparently, it's the only thing people are buying, and we're selling out of it like crazy, and they're buying it like crazy, like thousands of bags, so, seriously, thank you guys so much. | ||
And of course, don't forget, March 5th, at our Cast Brew location, it won't be open yet, we will be having a live show, members only, Tickets will be made available at some point soon as we're preparing this. | ||
So in one month, we will have a live show. | ||
It's supposed to be for Super Tuesday, but I don't know what that's going to be. | ||
I guess Nikki Haley is running or whatever. | ||
But in Martinsburg, West Virginia, if you want to come hang out live, it is not a very big place. | ||
It's going to be a small, private, members-only club at our Casper Building. | ||
If you want to support our work and you want to get access to those tickets, You gotta be a member! | ||
So go to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member. | ||
You'll also get access to our uncensored members-only show coming up tonight on the front page of TimCast.com. | ||
It is the not-so-family-friendly version of the show, so if you want to hear a lot of swearing and insults, it's probably a lot funnier, because we're a lot less serious, but also, as a member, you can submit questions and call into the show to talk to us live on air with our guests. | ||
So go to TimGatz.com, support our work, but also smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends. | ||
Joining us tonight to talk about this and a whole lot more is Christina Urso. | ||

|
Thank you so much. | |
I'm so grateful to be here with you guys. | ||
I am Christina. | ||
I'm an independent journalist and content creator. | ||
I am currently directing and producing my first documentary on the FBI's Governor Whitmer fednapping hoax. | ||
It's called Kidnap and Kill an FBI Terror Plot. | ||
You can watch the trailer, support the film, and learn more about it at knkfilm.com. | ||
Right on. | ||
Thanks for hanging out. | ||
It should be fun. | ||
We got Phil Labonte. | ||
Hello, everybody. | ||
My name is Phil Labonte. | ||
I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains. | ||
I'm an anti-communist and counter-revolutionary. | ||
What's up, Ian? | ||
Hey, not too much, man. | ||
I worked out earlier. | ||
I feel good. | ||
Good to hear. | ||
Yeah, I did some biceps. | ||
I did some... What are those things where you, like, are laying your front on the bench, but you're, like, pulling it up like this? | ||
That is a lat pull. | ||
God, that feels so good, man. | ||
The lats. | ||
We were watching these, um, these female SEAL team yesterday training. | ||
Trying to go along the zipline and getting stuck, and I just kept thinking about their lat strength. | ||
Like, you need, in order to get those to really, like, wiggle your way on a zipline, you gotta have strong lats. | ||
So that was a good exercise earlier. | ||
Yeah, good stuff. | ||
This was a members-only event. | ||
There's a, it's a six-minute-long video where Chili decided to send a female SWAT team to this competition, I guess. | ||
For the lulz. | ||
I don't know what they were thinking. | ||
It was rough. | ||
And, you know, Luke Rutkowski posted, it's got millions of views because these women, to their credit, are dangling for, like, a couple of them are holding for five, for like three minutes. | ||
A three minute hold. | ||
I'm like, it's not bad, but they're stuck dangling over water, unable to move. | ||
It's pretty brutal. | ||
But yeah, so, uh, you know. | ||
Build those lats, everyone. | ||
We got Serge pressing the buttons. | ||
Yo, what's up? | ||
I'm ready to start when y'all are. | ||
Alright, here's the big news. | ||
Gina Carano sues Disney, Lucasfilm, Elon Musk will facilitate others joining the lawsuits. | ||
This is, uh, it's an eventful day, I gotta say. | ||
It's Tuesday, so it's Newsday here. | ||
What was that? | ||
Phil's got speakers blasting. | ||
My bad. | ||
Check this out. | ||
Actress Gina Carano filed the lawsuit against Lucasfilms and Disney with the aid of ex-owner Elon Musk. | ||
The actress announced her lawsuit in a Tuesday ex-post. | ||
After my 20 years of building a career from scratch and during the regime of former Disney CEO Bob Chapek, Lucasfilm made this statement on Twitter. | ||
Terminating me from the Mandalorian. | ||
Quote, Gina Carano is not currently employed by Lucasfilm, and there are no plans for her to be in the future. | ||
Nevertheless, her social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are abhorrent and unacceptable. | ||
Carano wrote, citing Lucasfilm's statement. | ||
Now here's the thing. | ||
She never said those things. | ||
Gina Carano never denigrated anybody, never insulted anybody, and she points this out in a long ex-post where she says, I never used aggressive language. | ||
I shared thought-provoking quotes, pictures, memes, and I occasionally used my words not with aggression, but with respect and the occasional comedy to keep the mood light. | ||
She mentions that in one instance she said, beep, bop, boop, which is in no way, here we go, she says, so what did I do? | ||
She says, I was called a transphobe for making droid noises from Star Wars? | ||
Beep bop boop. | ||
Was obviously directed to the online bullies and did not in any way denigrate transgender people. | ||
But they did fire her. | ||
She says, a couple months ago, Elon Musk tweeted that if you had been fired from the platform for exercising your right to free speech, he would like to offer these people legal representation. | ||
Quite the noble offer, but never in my wildest dreams would I have thought anyone would take on my case against Lucasfilm and Disney. | ||
Still, I did respond back, I think I qualify, and thousands of people agreed, but I didn't expect anything. | ||
To my surprise, a few months ago I received an email from a lawyer who had been hired by X to look into my story and many others. | ||
Turns out, after sending them as much information as I could, I could gather these past few months my now lawyers and X believe wholeheartedly in my case and are moving forward. | ||
I would like to express my deepest gratitude and thank you to Elon Musk and X for giving me the opportunity to bring my case to light. | ||
As for me, I would like to pick up where I left off and continue my journey of creating and participating in storytelling, which is my utmost passion and everything I worked for. | ||
It has been difficult to move forward with the lies and labels stuck on me. | ||
Backed and encouraged by the most powerful entertainment company in the world, I am grateful someone has come to my defense in such a powerful way and look forward to clearing my name. | ||
It would appear... | ||
The reporting I've seen is that she is seeking to be recast. | ||
Let me make sure we have that, is that, uh, I believe that's the, uh, perhaps not. | ||
I saw the Hollywood Reporter, that should she win the lawsuit, she would want to be recast on the show Mandalorian. | ||
I don't know if that is exactly what's happening here, but Elon Musk isn't stopping there. | ||
He tweeted, if you were discriminated against by Disney or its subsidiaries, ABC, ESPN, Marvel, etc., just reply to this post to receive legal support. | ||
Wow, this is going to be big. | ||
I want to just say as we get into this, because we can read this post he put up from Disney, it's good for business. | ||
There are a lot of people who are scared to use Twitter. | ||
They're scared because they're going to get fired. | ||
This is Elon Musk's one of his smartest business moves. | ||
It's not even about the culture war. | ||
I mean, I'm sure it is, honestly. | ||
But I'm sure at the company, there are some business-minded individuals who asked Elon, why sue? | ||
For people getting fired from the platform and Elon said look how many people would be on the platform verified with their profile picture paying $8 a month if they were confident they would not be fired for speaking up a lot of people use the platform won't sign up out of fear it will connect to them and then when they express their opinions they will lose their lives We defend them when they get fired, and they'll feel more comfortable, we'll get more users, we'll get more paying subscribers. | ||
Not to mention, Elon Musk probably said, think of the ideological press. | ||
When we announce we're doing this, every person who opposes this anti-free speech is gonna sign up to support us. | ||
Because they know that that money is helping to fund pushing back against cancel culture. | ||
I mean, maybe I think that I'm starting to think that he's he's got a chip on his shoulder now. | ||
I mean, he is in a position where he's got the federal government, you know, starting to really look at him and he's he's getting pressure from the administration and you. | ||
When the president is, you know, making remarks about you saying things like we're going to look into you. | ||
That's a pretty intimidating kind of thing. | ||
So I think that there's probably a lot of personal impulse there, you know, but I mean, maybe he is. | ||
I don't know. | ||
I'm for it. | ||
What do you guys think? | ||
Yeah, of course I'm for it. | ||
The main thing I think is that if she wants to get her job back and get recast, that that would be a very hostile work environment for her. | ||
Even if they are forced to do it legally, I don't know why she would want that. | ||
That's what recast means to someone else, right? | ||
Well, no, I don't know if it's true. | ||
He said Hollywood Reporter Tim Mench said that she wanted to get her old role back, be recast on the role. | ||
Yeah, I want to make sure. | ||
I'm trying to fact check that because I had seen that. | ||
It's an interesting demand. | ||
Yes. | ||
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
Hollywood Reporter Chrono brings a claim of wrongful discharge and sex discrimination. | ||
She seeks a court order that would force Lucasfilm to recast her and at least $75,000 plus punitive damages. | ||
Interesting. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
It's interesting. | ||
Maybe it wouldn't be a hostile environment. | ||
I mean, look, yeah, I mean, she might be friends with all those guys. | ||
Yeah, and like it was the producer that she didn't even know that fired her that no one even knew or something like that. | ||
Oh, right, right, right. | ||
Somebody made a phone call and then they came to her and they're probably like, Gina, we're sorry. | ||
I mean, they're telling us you're out. | ||
And she was probably like, what the? | ||
Man, that's probably crazy. | ||
And the crazy thing about it is, she's pointed out, she did not, we read this, she didn't say the things they claimed she said. | ||
The big egregious violation was when she posted, it was like an image from the Holocaust, and it said, do not be tricked into condemning your neighbors. | ||
And they were like, she's comparing Republicans to Jews in the Holocaust, which she was not. | ||
She was literally making a broad statement of, the government will trick you into being enemies with fellow people. | ||
And that's like a common Occupy leftist trope. | ||
Where the government corporations want to pit the people against each other. | ||
Yeah, I mean, not to get into the metaphysical too deeply or whatever, but this kind of points to the argument that the word has power, that just having the ability to articulate things can make things manifest in reality. | ||
What they did was they said, look, she said all these anti-Semitic things, and even though the content was not anti-Semitic, the point of it was not anti-Semitic, and there's no evidence that it was, just people saying, look, this connection to you know the the holocaust means that she's insensitive means that she's anti-semitic and it got enough people concerned enough where they the where the you know the higher ups at disney said okay you've got to go or they just and because all the estimation is is just is this worth us defending is it worth us fighting for | ||
I want to just stress this point that there are journalists out there. | ||
I'll see a news headline and it'll say something like, Donald Trump, you know, orders drone strike, blah, blah, blah. | ||
And I'll be like, wow, that's big. | ||
And then I will click the story. | ||
And in the first paragraph, it will start with, it was a dark and stormy night. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, God. | |
A midsummer Tuesday. | ||
Scroll down to the end of that paragraph. | ||
Yep. | ||
And I'm like, whoa. | ||
By the end of the third paragraph, they tell you what it's about. | ||
Exactly. | ||
And we've all experienced this, and I bring this up because I give you the lawsuit. | ||
Introduction. | ||
A short time ago, in a galaxy not so far away- Done! | ||
I skip to the end of the paragraph immediately and see if it's topical. | ||
Well, come on. | ||
Or if it's just descriptive. | ||
Defendants made it clear that only one orthodoxy in thought, speech, and action was acceptable in their empire, and that those who dared to question or failed to fully— No, you lost me. | ||
I have cancer now. | ||
I now oppose Elon Musk. | ||
I am going full Democrat. | ||
I'm a leftist now because of that. | ||
I wonder if he let Grock write this thing. | ||
I have cancer now. | ||
Sounds like it. | ||
And it's probably terminal. | ||
unidentified
|
I can't believe they did that in the— Oh, man. | |
That sounds like Grock wrote it. | ||
That's funny. | ||
I wonder if he used Grock to write that. | ||
I gotta be honest, like if I was a judge and I would be really pissed off, I would be so pissed off. | ||
Don't waste my time. | ||
I would be too. | ||
No flowery words, give me the nuts. | ||
Are they expecting that the judge is gonna be like a Star Wars nerd or something? | ||
unidentified
|
Well that was very clever. | |
It is not clever at all. | ||
So what else we got? | ||
Cancer. | ||
Terminal, inoperable can't. | ||
Okay, so they say in her post, she expressed her personal political views, opinions, beliefs, | ||
in retaliation for her exercise of her speech rights, terminated Carano's employment, | ||
and took other retaliatory actions to limit and deny her future employment opportunities, | ||
including but not limited to making maliciously false statements | ||
about Carano, with the intention of damaging her reputation, and thus her ability to find and retain work. | ||
I think that's the important factor here. | ||
I'm willing to bet it was an activist at the company who was like, okay, we're going to fire her. | ||
Doesn't matter if she did anything wrong. | ||
And then the statement that went out saying she made aggressive, you know, she made these disparaging comments was to defame her quite literally because she never did. | ||
And I don't know what lawyer would sign off on a defamatory statement like that. | ||
No, I think it was an activist who just went for it. | ||
Maybe. | ||
Definitely. | ||
Who else do you think might join in a lawsuit like this? | ||
I mean, are there any other, like, people we could think of? | ||
To get her fired? | ||
No, no, no. | ||
People that have been robbed by Disney? | ||
Yes, yes. | ||
That Elon, ESPN? | ||
Well, I mean, theoretically, I mean, I don't know. | ||
Anyone that might have been on that Yeah, I don't know. | ||
was supposed to be in. They were going to make a Caridin series. Pedro Pascal. Anybody that was | ||
supposed to be in the series, they might be able to be like, hey, I was supposed to be a grip on | ||
that series, or I was supposed to be this on that series, or they might be able to make a monetary | ||
claim. This is just, you know, hypothetical, but otherwise, I don't know, you know. Yeah, | ||
I don't know. I suppose you could argue that, uh, yeah, these secondary jobs that were cut | ||
because she was removed from the show or something. | ||
I don't know. | ||
I don't know that how it'll work out as a class action. | ||
Well, let's take a look at this tweet. | ||
We have this tweet from Elon, and he says, It is mandatory institutionalized racism and sexism. | ||
It is. | ||
Disney general entertainment content inclusion standards. | ||
Ladies and gentlemen, we got a leak from inside the house showing how Disney is racist. | ||
I'd like to give a shout out to Mark Cuban. | ||
This guy, his response to being exposed as a racist was to claim that he's being attacked by people who are anti-semitic on X. | ||
And I'm just like, that's kind of, Mark, I gotta be honest, that's kind of the Kevin Spacey argument. | ||
Like, Kevin Spacey gets accused of rape, and then he's like, I'm gay. | ||
And it's like, yes, well that may be, but you were accused of rape, so right this way to jail, sir, and then we'll have a trial. | ||
You know, and then I guess the witnesses, like several of the witnesses or something happened, and you know, like, witnesses or victims died or something like that. | ||
Oh yeah, Kevin Spacey. | ||
Yeah, I think he was acquitted, wasn't he? | ||
I think so. | ||
unidentified
|
All of his accusers passed away, I believe. | |
I don't think that's true. | ||
unidentified
|
Maybe one that didn't? | |
There were a couple, I think, but I think he was acquitted. | ||
And so if he was, it is what it is. | ||
If that's the court's find, I don't know what else I can say. | ||
It doesn't mean I completely agree with it, but I'm not going to attack a guy who went through the system in that way. | ||
That being said, back to Mark Cuban. | ||
Who quite literally fights tooth and nail to be like, I want to hire based on race! | ||
And he's screaming it. | ||
And then people are like, dude, that's racist. | ||
And he's like, you hate Jews. | ||
It's like, okay, dude. | ||
I mean, it's not literally what he did. | ||
He just immediately started highlighting all the tweets that were anti-semitic instead of addressing the arguments that were against them. | ||
The anti-semitic screech is, like, the most annoying one right now for me. | ||
I've had friends that are like, Ian, be careful talking about Israel, because people will think you're anti-semitic. | ||
I'm like, yeah, right, okay. | ||
I'm still going to talk about Israel, because I've been talking a lot about how it got created. | ||
I don't want to derail into this topic. | ||
We are not derailing into that, so back to Disney. | ||
We have this post from Elon Musk. | ||
Standard A on-screen representation. | ||
At least three of the following five areas need to be met to fulfill Standard A. | ||
Characters. | ||
50% or more of regular and recurring written characters from underrepresented groups. | ||
Well, in Hollywood, that would mean white people, I think, right? | ||
50% or more of regular recurring actors come from underrepresented groups. | ||
Secondary characters. | ||
Meaningful inclusion, blah blah blah, you get it. | ||
Series premise. | ||
Integration of underrepresented groups in overall themes and narratives. | ||
Episodic storytelling, ongoing meaningful integration of underrepresented groups and episodic themes, blah blah blah. | ||
Standard B. Creative leadership. | ||
Are they doing this? | ||
Every single one of these say underrepresented groups. | ||
Every single one. | ||
Every single one of these. | ||
Underrepresented. | ||
Um, okay? | ||
They say underrepresented or is it historically underrepresented? | ||
Critical context, here we go, when evaluating whether a group, this is gonna be fun, is underrepresented. | ||
It says, anyone involved in hiring decisions is prohibited from asking candidates and talent about their actual or perceived race, religion, color, orientation, sex orientation I believe it says, gender, gender identity, military or veteran status, age, disability, or any other legally protected categories. | ||
Well okay, hold on. | ||
If you are a casting director who needs to find an underrepresented group but you can't ask about any of those things, then I think there are only a few underrepresented groups you can actually cast and they're going to be atypical. | ||
For instance, let's see. | ||
You want an underrepresented group, underrepresented group in your movie, but you can't ask about any of those things. | ||
But you can't ask if they're a furry. | ||
And they're certainly underrepresented, right? | ||
And what other groups are underrepresented? | ||
Race car drivers? | ||
Okay. | ||
I mean, I don't see big political action committees supporting, you know, race car drivers. | ||
Bull riders. | ||
Bull riders! | ||
So that's the way we can go. | ||
I do think it's funny they say military or veteran status. | ||
And they're like, it is funny how they're saying you have to include these things but you can't ask about it. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Ronan McDaniel is out at the RNC. | ||
We'll get into that one for sure. | ||
Yeah, look, there is clearly the desire to have more racial awareness, which makes people more racist. | ||
The reason that people had a problem with CRT, with critical race theory, this has kind of like gone away as a topic or as a hot topic recently because, you know, topics move along, but The thing that CRT does is it produces people that have a critical racial consciousness. | ||
They see race before anything else. | ||
So the results of CRT is stuff like the DIE stuff, the diversity, inclusion, and equity stuff. | ||
The results are you look at race first and that all the studies that have ever been done about this, it just makes people more racist. | ||
It makes people want to divide more. | ||
It makes people see Separate things, it makes people look at people as the other. | ||
It is a terrible, terrible way to look at people. | ||
It is illiberal, and it is against everything that our country is founded on, which is the idea that individual people are all created equally, and they are to be treated equally under the law. | ||
All of this stuff flies in the face of that DEI and all of this stuff is not the continuation of the civil rights movement. | ||
It is totally antithetical to anything liberal. | ||
The argument from a lot of people, and I agree, is that the Civil Rights Act created the pathway for all of this. | ||
That's an argument that could be made because technically, you shouldn't have any of the stuff that applies to the private sector in the Civil Rights Act about, you know, you can't discriminate based on race or anything. | ||
Technically, that stuff shouldn't apply to the private sector. | ||
If you want to make those kind of arguments in the public sector, in the government and stuff like that, you can make an argument. | ||
But technically, as long as you have the freedom to associate, you should be able to say, I don't want to But once the government starts getting involved in that, then that's setting the precedent that the government has the right to get involved in it. | ||
I wonder what the statute of limitations is on this, because I don't know if it matters, considering the company I worked for doesn't exist anymore, but it was an ABC News joint venture, Fusion, and they discriminated against me based on my race. | ||
They had a thing called the Black and Brown Forum, where... Jesus Christ! | ||
Yeah. | ||
It's something that I think they still do it. | ||
And they were interviewing Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, and I was one of their star talent reporters. | ||
And when they had the event, I knew it was going on and I didn't hear anything and I was like, I'm just going to do my thing. | ||
I'm not somebody who really complains. | ||
When the event happened, They brought in, like, three of the top talent they had for the company, Fusion, and then they cast a black guy who was from New York who was, like, a comedian and well-known, and I didn't- I'm like, look, I'm on my- I'm on my- I don't care. | ||
Like, you can do whatever you want. | ||
It's your company. | ||
I literally don't care. | ||
I'm doing my thing. | ||
I'm getting paid. | ||
However, when all of this stuff started coming up, and I was like, because the guys who run the company were not woke. | ||
They didn't know or care. | ||
They were just like, I don't know, this is what we're told, the marketing people and the young people. | ||
But I was explicitly told by the president of the company that I look too white to be a part of that program. | ||
And I'm like, man, you had a chance to get like a mixed-race Asian guy in the program. | ||
And what year was this? | ||
2016. | ||
This is November 19, 2015 is when Fusion announced they were going to broadcast with the Iowa Brown and Black Presidential Forum. | ||
There you go. | ||
And I was like, I come from a mixed race family. | ||
I think I was like, what? | ||
And you know, and I wonder, I mean, maybe it's too late. | ||
I don't know if I would care all that much to be involved, but I do kind of feel like the reason I bring it up is like, it's it's this is too way too long ago. | ||
It's like a decade ago. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I don't think there's any better left lying. | ||
Well, I just think it's probably too long ago, but I can at least say this. | ||
This is a company that was half-owned by ABC News, and they have been doing this for a long time. | ||
Elon's looking for people. | ||
ABC's a subsidiary of Disney. | ||
Elon's looking for people to join in, maybe. | ||
But I'm saying it's been nine years. | ||
So, actually, it's been eight years, because it's only been a few months after November when they did it. | ||
But at the very least, I don't think I would be involved in any way. | ||
I want to make sure it is known. | ||
I experienced this. | ||
It literally happened. | ||
The company was insanely racist and sexist. | ||
It was... it was... | ||
Insane, how racist they were. | ||
There was one instance where the news team was going over a story about Ghost in the Shell. | ||
This was when Scarlett Johansson was going to be playing the major, the main character from Ghost in the Shell. | ||
And they were like, why is a white woman playing a Japanese woman? | ||
And I said, actually, she's a robot. | ||
And actually, it's really, it's transhumanist. | ||
A core concept of Ghost in the Shell is being able to transfer to different bodies, different sexes, different races. | ||
And they're like, nah, they're just racist. | ||
So we're going to call it racist instead. | ||
Like, it had to be viewed through that lens no matter what. | ||
And I'm like, OK, yeah, right. | ||
And I will say this, Elon, please look into this. | ||
The editor in chief, Alexis Madrigal, had a Twitter banner at the time that said down with whiteness. | ||
Yeah, and this stuff and a black fist, this stuff has been being churned out of colleges. | ||
Every year for at least a decade now. | ||
That means 10 years of graduating classes from all over the country. | ||
People that have this kind of ideology built in have been getting jobs, or maybe they haven't been getting jobs, but at least some of them have been getting jobs in human resources departments. | ||
All over the country. | ||
This is such a massive... It was a massive problem a decade ago and now it's reached the point where it is likely that the United States will not get out of this and be the same country. | ||
We've got to acknowledge... Were you going to say something? | ||
unidentified
|
Just that Yuri Bezmenov said what it was one generation was all you needed to demoralize and then you could destabilize a country and you're saying like 10 years. | |
So another five years I don't know. | ||
And people are still arguing as to if this is even happening. | ||
Like, we're all born equal, legally equal, but we're not all the same, and we all come from different nutrition backgrounds, and if our parents were poor, they didn't have access to nutrition, maybe their brains weren't as developed, so their child's brains aren't as developed, and then if I come from poverty, maybe I'll be poor too, and I won't have good brain matter, my kids won't either, so there's like, Then when you throw all these kids in school and you're like, learn math, the kids that don't have the brain matter that come from poverty struggle because they don't have the mental capacity. | ||
But that doesn't mean you take those kids and you shove them into CEO positions just so that you have enough color, like the same color or the right color. | ||
You've also got to let people flounder. | ||
It's the sad nature of reality. | ||
people come from suffering, they've got to either figure it out for themselves, I mean, | ||
at least that seems to be the least worst way forward, is to let people do it on their | ||
own instead of force feed and force the system into... | ||
But I mean, I'm totally down with like the descendants of slaves in the United States, | ||
had it, like they come from generational poverty and lack of nutrition. | ||
Not everybody, but some of those families do. | ||
So that's a real problem. | ||
But I don't think forcing them into positions of power is the right way to solve for it or to give them money. | ||
You know, you got to feed them, you know, you could argue like healthy food, but that would be like society-wide. | ||
That wouldn't just be, you wouldn't just want to target little communities with With good nutrition you could maybe potentially, you know food stamps tend to get people Pepsi I've seen that you can buy Pepsi with food stamps. | ||
That's insane There's all kinds of problems with like entitlement programs and stuff like that but the fundamental thing that that you're talking about is is whether or not people have you know, the the the ability to you know, provide sustenance for themselves and I don't know that there's a significant amount of hunger in the United States to the point where it's affecting whether or not people develop properly. | ||
I get that happens in North Korea. | ||
You get people that are so malnourished, they're two inches shorter than people in South Korea or whatever, but I don't know if that's happening in the U.S., is it? | ||
Well, I imagine after, like, 1860s, people were pretty poor in the Depression. | ||
Seven million people died during the Great Depression. | ||
I mean, that kind of stuff you're talking about is stuff that would happen to people born now, though, right? | ||
And now, it's not that they don't have food, it's that they don't have nutrition. | ||
Like, a lot of the preservatives and stuff sold in the cheap food at the store is like... It actually makes them obese. | ||
Yes, which is also, that's not feeding the brain properly, in my opinion. | ||
It's creating another struggle. | ||
I don't know if obesity is generational. | ||
Do obese parents tend to give birth to children that are prone to obesity? | ||
Well, they don't give birth to them, but obesity is behavior-based. | ||
If you don't move enough and you don't exercise enough, then you're... | ||
Like the food that they get taught to eat when they're kids as well, like if they don't have the, you know, the people telling them how to cook and what they should be cooking and then they'll probably just eat prepackaged food their entire life and that does happen all the time. | ||
unidentified
|
And then they raise their kids like that and then those habits you develop at a really young age, you carry them forward with you and then you teach your kids those bad habits unless you break that cycle. | |
Well I suppose, you know, you want reparations, you gotta teach people to break that cycle. | ||
And first they gotta even know what that cycle is, which requires some education. | ||
Let's jump to the big breaking news. | ||
Ronna McDaniel, RNC chairwoman, plans to step down. | ||
Donald Trump is likely to back an election denier, Michael Whatley, that of the North Carolina GOP, to replace her. | ||
So apparently Trump got on the phone with her. | ||
And then people were expecting something to happen and then like one of her, I think her chief of staff or some, you know, one of her top staff members resigned. | ||
And now the New York Times reporting she is planning to resign. | ||
I think there's actually, look, there's been a revolt in the Republican Party over her failure, abject failure. | ||
And this is great, this is absolutely fantastic news. | ||
This is, we are excising the old guard, establishment neocon types, and uniparty garbage from the RNC. | ||
Did you guys know that I believe someone searched this. | ||
I heard that the Democrats have raised three times what the RNC has raised. | ||
Yeah, I don't know. | ||
I don't know if it's three times, but I've heard that it's a significantly larger amount of money. | ||
Because no one's going to give them money so long as Ronald McDaniel is in his position. | ||
I hope you're right. | ||
I'm very, very happy to hear that Rona McDaniel is out. | ||
You cannot fail as regularly as she did and expect to keep your job. | ||
It's ridiculous that she stuck around. | ||
around the fact like the fact that she made it after Trump you know lost in | ||
2020 like she should have been gone then yeah because in my opinion the whole the | ||
reason that that the reason that Trump lost was because of the RNC not being | ||
prepared with actual on-the-ground stuff to compete with the Democrats the way | ||
they were clearly you know ballot harvesting and stuff And I don't care that people are going to sit there and make excuses for the Republicans. | ||
I don't care about the excuses. | ||
I don't care why you lost. | ||
You lost. | ||
You get fired for that. | ||
Get out of here. | ||
RNC reported its worst fundraising year since 2013. | ||
Wow. | ||
She's a joke. | ||
They raised $87 million and they started 2024 with just over $8 million in cash. | ||
Now, hold on. | ||
Look up Turning Point USA. | ||
Can we look up their numbers? | ||
Let me do a quick search. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
How much money has she mismanaged, though, and squandered? | ||
How much money did she start out with? | ||
It was millions of dollars that she had that she did nothing with, that she completely squandered. | ||
How much has the RNC raised? | ||
Since? | ||
Do we know? | ||
The RNC? | ||
Or are you looking for Turning Point? | ||
How much has Turning Point raised? | ||
RNC. | ||
So we can compare. | ||
$87 million. | ||
$87 million. | ||
unidentified
|
That's a lot more than... That's in 2023. | |
A lot more than I think TPUSA raises. | ||
But the interesting thing is, when we were at Turning Point AmFest, a lot of people were saying this is basically replacing the RNC. | ||
Yeah, that's a good point. | ||
That's the vibe I got while I was there. | ||
It just felt like if there's going to be what you would call a Republican National Convention, that's what Turning Point feels like. | ||
And DeSantis didn't go. | ||
That was crazy. | ||
I don't know. | ||
That was real crazy. | ||
I like him as governor. | ||
I mean, now that he's not running anymore, he's like a badass again. | ||
Yeah, it's kind of crazy. | ||
unidentified
|
But he's got no charisma. | |
I'm sorry. | ||
No, but I mean, like, now that he's not running for president, all of a sudden, he's just like, when he said deport Ilhan Omar, I was like, oh, what? | ||
Where was this guy? | ||
unidentified
|
Exactly. | |
Geez. | ||
For reference, the DNC seems to have raised $140 million to the RNC's $87 million. | ||
unidentified
|
That's embarrassing. | |
That's more with Joe Biden, it says allied groups, so it might be more than just the DNC. | ||
Wow, dude, the RNC entered 2024 with only $8 million. | ||
That's nuts. | ||
unidentified
|
That's insane! | |
Holy crap, dude. | ||
That's like negligent. | ||
That's nuts, man. | ||
How much did they raise? | ||
They entered the year with $8 million in cash. | ||
And now they've got how much? | ||
$87 million? | ||
I don't think this article has their total rate. | ||
Okay, here we go. | ||
They raised $87.2 million in 2023, ending the year with $8 million left in the bank. | ||
ending the year with eight million left in the bank. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
Wow. | ||
The DNC raised $119 million with $21 million cash on hand. | ||
And then, I'm not finding Turning Point's numbers exactly, but their revenue of 2022 was $55 million. | ||
That was their revenue. | ||
$55 million? | ||
$55 million. | ||
They're starting to replace—this is what I was wondering. | ||
They're starting to replace the RNC. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Why would anyone donate to the RNC at all? | ||
It used to be that, like, hey, we're going to support the Republican Party, and we're going to support their candidates, and then when you donate, they can donate that money to one of the candidates. | ||
Nah. | ||
Best thing they could do is make Charlie Kirk the head of the RNC. | ||
I don't know if you would even take it at this point. | ||
I mean, it is good that Ronald McDaniel is out, but I gotta be honest, I don't care for the Republican establishment. | ||
And I think it's true, many Trump supporters felt the same way. | ||
That's why they started using the lion instead of the elephant, right? | ||
GOP elephant? | ||
No, I didn't know that. | ||
Yeah, they started using a lion for Trump, because it's a different party. | ||
I think it's fairly obvious. | ||
In 2016, and it's the Ron Paul generation, the Ron Paul populist types went Mises Caucus Libertarian, or they went, not all of them, some of them went Trump. | ||
Some of the Mises Caucus guys actually speak positively of Trump's foreign policy, despite it not being perfect. | ||
But then you get the Bernie Sanders progressives, and there was an attempted ousting of the leadership in the Democrat and Republican parties in 2016. | ||
Donald Trump succeeded. | ||
Bernie Sanders failed. | ||
You wanna know why that happened? | ||
Place Bernie Sanders next to Donald Trump, there's your answer. | ||
No question. | ||
That was the best the progressive left could muster up for a populist revolt in the Democratic Party. | ||
Yeah, Bernie's gonna stand outside the door knocking, going, excuse me, can I please come in? | ||
And Donald Trump just hires a bunch of guys with battering rams and he walks in, it's my time now, we're taking it. | ||
And that's what he did. | ||
And they desperately need to, they desperately, for their cause, need to stop him. | ||
But they can't. | ||
Here we go with the ousting of Ronald McDaniel, finally. | ||
Holy crap. | ||
Did you say they mentioned a guy they want to put in as the head of the RNC already? | ||
They've already got a... Yup! | ||
Yeah, Michael Watley. | ||
They say he's an election denier. | ||
I didn't realize he was a Democrat who thought Trump was a Russian agent. | ||
Oh, oh, oh, they're saying he has questions about potential voter fraud. | ||
Yeah, I mean, you know, I get it. | ||
Election, wait, what? | ||
DOJ arrests New Jersey Democrat for mail-in ballot fraud? | ||
Uh-oh! | ||
If I agree with the DOJ, am I an election denier now? | ||
I don't want to be an election denier, guys. | ||
Man, I can't believe it took this long to get rid of Ronald McDaniel. | ||
It's almost too little too late, to be honest. | ||
Well, I mean, I would disagree just because of the fact that it's still, you know, it's February. | ||
There's still a lot of time. | ||
A lot of time. | ||
Most elections, you don't have such a clear idea of who the nominee is going to be this early. | ||
Usually, it's not until at least April, you know, until people really kind of shake out. | ||
Whoever comes in might be able to do some good, hopefully. | ||
I kind of think it's fair to assume this year will be the weirdest thing you've ever seen. | ||
I know we joke about Ben Shapiro rapping, like, aha, it's 2024 and Ben Shapiro is the biggest rapper in the world, blah, blah, blah. | ||
It's a joke. | ||
It's not really that big a deal. | ||
There's a lot of cultural things that have happened. | ||
You know, the FJB song hitting number one. | ||
We obviously have some cultural influence on our side. | ||
I'm talking about We have a lot of expectations of what's going to happen. | ||
But I'm saying like, dude, if aliens came down and just abducted Nikki Haley in the middle of like a speech, I would just not be surprised at all. | ||
I'm half kidding, you know, like maybe not aliens, but I'm just saying right now we expect Trump to be the nominee. | ||
I honestly have no idea. | ||
I'd put my bet on it, place my chips on that Donald Trump's going to be the nominee. | ||
But I don't know, man. | ||
I mean, Vivek, I think, made a good point about they will stop at nothing. | ||
We literally have no idea. | ||
And here's what I'm worried about. | ||
A black swan event happening in the next few months. | ||
There's no way to predict it. | ||
These things happen. | ||
You have no idea. | ||
Yeah, my worst fear. | ||
Well, no, actually, this is just one of my fears, is a power out. | ||
It's like a grid down, water down situation for two plus weeks. | ||
Uh, something that would cause water death. | ||
If the water grid goes out, then disease can get really nasty. | ||
They're reporting that the Houthis may cut undersea cables, disrupting international communications. | ||
But when I was doing this wargaming in my head, like, what's the worst? | ||
And I'm thinking, okay, they really want to create like a world order, but they want order. | ||
They don't want world chaos. | ||
They want order. | ||
So they're not going to knock out Power grids and things like I don't think that that's the aim is to destroy and corrupt. | ||
I think the idea is to peacefully take control. | ||
So I don't know. | ||
I don't know if you believe that they that there is an actually a plan to decrease population. | ||
Why not? | ||
Well, I know there's a plan that they want to slow the growth of the population. | ||
I mean, I think that there's a plan they want to slow the growth. | ||
I don't know if they actually want to go decrease the total, or if they just want to slow the growth of the total. | ||
I'm not sure exactly. | ||
I think we've got probably a normalcy bias, but not an optimism bias. | ||
I think many of us actually are concerned about what's going to happen this year. | ||
But you know, I've been thinking about this every day. | ||
I wake up, I got routine, you know what I mean? | ||
We come in, I sit down, I got my little spindrift right here, and we got our biltong, and we do the show every day, and I wake up in the morning and I read the news every day, and part of me is thinking like, I kind of feel like it is reasonable to expect that at some point this year, something will happen that will completely disrupt our ability to have some kind of routine. | ||
We saw that with COVID. | ||
That shattered everything. | ||
It is 2024. | ||
It is four years on. | ||
They do not want Trump to win by any means necessary. | ||
So I kind of just feel like Black Swan event, I don't know what it's going to be. | ||
I don't know, man. | ||
I don't know either. | ||
There's a significant part of me that doesn't believe that Donald Trump will be, you know, the president in 2025, no matter what happens. | ||
Of the Neo-Confederacy, he will be. | ||
Of the Union, that's another question. | ||
I mean, that's... I don't know. | ||
I don't want to talk about that. | ||
But like, I just don't think that the The establishment will allow it. | ||
I think they're gonna come up with some kind of excuse whether it be something that actually happens on election day or not. | ||
We already saw that they said he has no immunity. | ||
Yeah. | ||
So I'm I'm I'm game man. | ||
Let's arrest Barack Obama. | ||
Stat. | ||
That's something you know there was I think it was Daryl Issa. | ||
I retweeted something today just a little while ago. | ||
I think it was Daryl Issa that was making allusions to that exact thing that if it is that if the case is that Donald Trump does not have immunity then Barack Obama doesn't either. | ||
Of course. | ||
So all we need is some Republican in law enforcement, anywhere, with some balls to initiate the criminal proceedings against Barack Obama for the extrajudicial assassination of Anwar al-Awlaki and his son, Abdulrahman al-Awlaki. | ||
But you know, Republicans are... Cowards. | ||
Oh, man. | ||
That's not fair, dude. | ||
Weak cowards. | ||
That's still not fair. | ||
It is not fair to call Republicans... You're insulting weak cowards. | ||
The Republicans are worse than that. | ||
They are like gimps on leashes for the Democrats. | ||
And don't take my word for it, we have this story from the post-millennial. | ||
House fails to impeach DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. | ||
Four Republicans defected to join the Democrats in supporting what everyone in the country is now calling an invasion. | ||
You see Al Sharpton called it an invasion? | ||
unidentified
|
Yes, even Democrats are saying this. | |
Marjorie Taylor Greene said, it's not over. | ||
There was a motion to recommit. | ||
They could bring up articles next week. | ||
Laura Loomer tweets, the House GOP just failed to impeach DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas | ||
even when they gave the majority, when they have the majority. | ||
Republicans always fail to deliver. | ||
These are the Republican traitors who voted no. | ||
They should all be removed from Congress. | ||
They are essentially Democrats. | ||
Ken Buck doesn't give a damn because he's a retiring selfish POS. | ||
Tom McClintock of California, Ken Buck of Colorado, Mike Gallagher of Wisconsin, and | ||
Blake Moore of Utah. | ||
All those guys like to get kicked in the nuts. | ||
I want to stress this right now to each and every one of you. | ||
Make it heard to the best you can. | ||
If there's anything we can do on this show, I'll tell you, I am a guy who complains to a camera for a living. | ||
But if there's anything I can do, it is to tell all of you listening to make sure you tell everyone you know, never donate another penny to anything related to McClintock, Ken Buck, Gallagher, Blake Moore. | ||
Never contribute in any way, and if you can, you live in their districts, campaign against them, run against them, and stop giving money to the RNC until they come out, apologize for this, replace Ronald McDaniel, which they're doing right now, but they're gonna get in somebody else, and even then, I'm not even convinced, I gotta be honest, I'm not even convinced the RNC deserves a single penny, no matter who they put in place. | ||
If there's one thing we can do right now, let's make sure that when Rep McClintock gets on that phone looking for donors, they tell him to screw off. | ||
He has betrayed the American people and they hang up on him. | ||
If you live in California's 5th District, call him and say you have betrayed us and do everything you can to make sure these people never, never get re-elected. | ||
unidentified
|
Name and shame them. | |
I like that. | ||
They should all be shamed. | ||
I think that nobody feels like they have political representation here, like Democrats or Republicans. | ||
I think on both sides, people feel like they're not represented, and the only people that are are corporations. | ||
The corporate donors have representation, but regular people don't. | ||
So I'll play for you the clip here. | ||
It's frustrating, but here you go. | ||
On this vote, the yeas are 214 and the nays are 216. | ||
The resolution is not adopted. | ||
Oh, somebody got- there's some backroom stuff going on there. | ||
unidentified
|
Exactly. | |
Yep, take a look at that. | ||
Wow. | ||
Four Republicans decided to be like, let's be Democrats. | ||
I- I- I'm just- I'm so- I'm so over it, man. | ||
It doesn't surprise me the states they're from, California, Colorado, Wisconsin, Utah, even though- No, that all makes sense. | ||
Yeah, even though some people think that Utah is, you know, conservative, it is not. | ||
It is not nearly as conservative as- Yeah, I was gonna say. | ||
But you can actually search and can- I lived there for like 10 years, it's definitely not. | ||
Everyone has that perception because of like the LDS church, but it's not the case. | ||
This right here is the kind of thing that I- I'm gonna say it. | ||
Civil War. | ||
Ha! | ||
No, a failed impeachment inquiry is not- No, this- Look- This is good that they're actually doing this. | ||
Nope. | ||
When people vote, and the Republicans get in in 2022, and they say, now that we have Congress, we're going to make some changes, and they don't. | ||
People just are- You're going to generate a massive loss of confidence in the system. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
People feel like they have to take things into their own hands because they feel like Nobody listens to them, nobody represents them, and they do this year after year after year, where they give someone a chance, and they think, finally, we'll get something done for us, and it never happens, and I think it makes people very frustrated. | ||
But I almost feel like they do it on purpose, you know? | ||
Like, they're paid to lose, and I feel part of it is like a humiliation ritual for us all, you know? | ||
Like, they're publicly humiliating us. | ||
They know that, like, 90% of the country wants reasonable border control and border policy. | ||
But this is what we get. | ||
And now what's happened is you've got Al Sharpton and other Democrat personalities saying, why are Republicans obstructing our attempts to solve the border crisis? | ||
That makes me really frustrated. | ||
And then the Republicans do exactly what they say. | ||
Sharpton called an invasion but then thought that the Republicans were blocking the attempt to stop it. | ||
Yes, he said every day we see an invasion of immigrants on the border, we got to call these Republicans and held them accountable for what they're doing. | ||
To get them to sign that open border bill that they wanted to do? | ||
That's what they do. | ||
That's the name of the game. | ||
And people are going to buy it. | ||
And there are a lot of people that are out on like Twitter and influencers that are just out there just to spread the essentially the official narrative. | ||
And they're out there saying, you know, doing the whole blame the Republicans. | ||
It's the Republicans. | ||
You need this bill and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. | ||
You don't need any of that. | ||
I know that there are people out there that are saying, oh, you know, they need to have a bill, you need to have some kind of new legislation, etc, etc. | ||
That's not true at all. | ||
And the reason that you know it's not true is because in emergencies, the government does all kinds of crazy shit. | ||
They did the Berlin Airlift. | ||
If they can do the fucking Berlin Airlift! | ||
unidentified
|
What was that? | |
The Berlin Airlift was literally, they were landing planes in Berlin, Every like 15 or 30 seconds to supply the food because to supply food and all the things that Berlin needed because the Russians shut off access with the ground. | ||
So the US what's it called the UK and I forget who else they were literally flying beef planes into into Berlin. | ||
For everything they needed. | ||
Fuel, food, everything. | ||
Because you couldn't get there on the ground. | ||
This is post-World War II? | ||
Yeah, this is right after World War II. | ||
This is when the Iron Curtain was going up. | ||
So if they can do the Berlin Airlift, right? | ||
If they can manage to do that, if they can make the nuclear bomb, they can figure out the border without new legislation. | ||
I don't buy for a second that they can't. | ||
It's just that they lack the will. | ||
They refuse to. | ||
And they refuse to because it's politically useful. | ||
Lack the will? | ||
Their wills are ironclad, brother. | ||
Their will is for open border. | ||
And they are doing everything in their power to maintain it and manipulate the public and destroy this country. | ||
I am actually really impressed with their willpower to maintain a destructive open border in the face of their own constituents screaming at them to shut it down. | ||
I mean... | ||
You've got Democrats in Democrat strongholds screaming about the immigration crisis, and these Republicans are like, I'm gonna stand strong and work for the Democrats. | ||
Unreal. | ||
Wow! | ||
Unbelievable. | ||
I'm impressed by their sacrifice. | ||
So, let it be said, to those four members of the, I guess they're now honorable Democrats, I hope they never see another penny in donations. | ||
But even those guys, like all those people in the Democratic Party that voted not to impeach the guy, I mean is the guy, he seems like he's doing a piss poor job of protecting the border by letting all these millions of people across the border. | ||
He is facilitating. | ||
Yeah, so all these people that are not on board, like, the impeachment sounds rational, at least in the impeachment inquiry. | ||
Like, why is he not, why is he falling short? | ||
The inquiry's going on, that's why they had the vote. | ||
They did the inquiry to see, you know, if they're gonna actually, should try to impeach him. | ||
Oh yeah, Corey Mills was talking about doing this last time he was on the show, and I thought, I mean, it's worst case scenario, with an impeachment, is they find him not guilty. | ||
Look, if you get an impeachment, though, then that's assigning blame. | ||
It's an indictment. | ||
Yeah, but what I'm saying is if he does, if any of the Democrats were to vote for the impeachment, that's saying, yes, we did something wrong. | ||
That's an admission of guilt. | ||
And that's what they're trying to avoid, is just the appearance of doing anything wrong. | ||
It's total denial. | ||
It's time we vote out every single one of the Republican incumbents. | ||
Love that. | ||
All of them. | ||
I will take a ham sandwich at this point just to punish these people for being as bad as they are. | ||
Now, maybe, I think it's fair, if we assess those who are good, because Matt Gaetz definitely should stay. | ||
In terms of the Senate, Rand Paul always will have my vote. | ||
Thomas Massey, as much as I disagree with him on a lot of things, I still respect him. | ||
Would like to see him stay as well. | ||
You know, and I think there's a lot, uh, many of us disagree with Maceon, but he's also very good on many other things, and he's a nice guy. | ||
I'll take it. | ||
I think he's being honest, but I disagree with some of his positions. | ||
There are way too many people who are willing to, like, every single, every single one who voted to remove Santos. | ||
Don't know, don't care. | ||
The fact that Santos is gone has only made this more likely. | ||
unidentified
|
I know, and I like him now. | |
I don't know why. | ||
unidentified
|
I think he's great. | |
He did not lie any more than any other politician. | ||
It was just the way that he lied and what he lied about. | ||
unidentified
|
That's right. | |
They're all crooks. | ||
He just got caught. | ||
We don't even know that he got caught. | ||
unidentified
|
That's true. | |
He's been accused. | ||
He never actually got found guilty of anything. | ||
They just booted him because he was accused. | ||
So all the Republicans who voted to get rid of him, They gotta go. | ||
They gotta be ousted, someone else has gotta move in. | ||
Democrats will line up, linking arms, to burn down police stations. | ||
And Republicans are like, well, on procedure, we can't impeach the man who's destroying our border. | ||
Democrats are so good at falling in line, they will tell you that a man is a woman with a straight face. | ||
It feels like they were falling in line. | ||
You can't let the thing happen. | ||
You've got to protect this guy. | ||
We've got to jump to the next big story. | ||
Donald Trump has made a very important statement pertaining to very serious issues here in the United States. | ||
And that is, he wants us to drink Bud Light! | ||
Donald Trump posted, the Bud Light ad was a mistake of epic proportions. | ||
And for that, a very big price was paid. | ||
But Anheuser-Busch is not a woke company. | ||
But I can give you plenty that are. | ||
I'm building a list and might just release it for the world to see. | ||
Why not? | ||
The radical left does it viciously to well-run conservative companies and people. | ||
Okay, I don't understand that. | ||
Very nasty, but it's the way they play the game. | ||
On the other hand, Anheuser-Busch spends $700 million a year with our great farmers, employ 65,000 Americans, of which 1,500 are veterans, and is a founding corporate partner of Folds of Honor, which provides scholarships for families of fallen servicemen and women. | ||
They have raised over $30 million and given 44,000 scholarships. | ||
Anheuser-Busch is a great American brand that perhaps deserves a second chance. | ||
What do you think? | ||
Perhaps, instead, we should be going after those companies that are looking to destroy America. | ||
Well, I will pause there, good sir Donald Trump, as much as I'm looking forward to voting for you. | ||
You are a far, far from perfect candidate. | ||
Anheuser-Busch is not an American company. | ||
Thank you, and have a nice day. | ||
It's a Belgian company. | ||
It's owned by InBev. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
It's not an American company. | ||
And I can respect his view. | ||
And I think the reason he's doing it is Anheuser-Busch probably does give a lot of money. | ||
And so a lot of politicians are like, we need the money coming from Anheuser-Busch. | ||
And now Donald Trump has come out and said, it is time to end the boycott. | ||
unidentified
|
It's time to give in to the global fascism. | |
What say you, panel? | ||
All in favor of ending the Bud Light boycott, so saith Donald Trump? | ||
I so don't even care because I don't drink beer. | ||
If I was in a situation and someone handed me a beer and it was Bud Light, I would drink it. | ||
I'm not gonna buy the stuff. | ||
That's where I'm at. | ||
So uh, many people have responded directly to the post saying no, not until there's an | ||
apology and I 100% agree. | ||
I actually, so I don't know if you guys saw the Super Bowl ad they made. | ||
Isn't it really stupid that they're putting, they put Super Bowl ads out before the Super | ||
Bowl now? | ||
Yeah, that was what I was thinking. | ||
What? | ||
I think we broke Bud Light. | ||
I think we broke them. | ||
I think there's, like, a guy sitting in, like, the marketing department in his underwear smoking cigarettes with, like, bags under his eyes rocking back and forth. | ||
I wanna smoke cigarettes. | ||
Refreshing speed over and over and over. | ||
Yeah, just, so, so basically... | ||
They do this ad campaign with Miles Teller and some woman, I don't know who she is, and she's on hold and he's like dancing towards her with two cans of Bud Light and then they dance together and then laugh and drink Bud Light in their living room at like 9 in the morning or something. | ||
I don't know. | ||
I don't know what time it's supposed to be in the commercial but it's stupid anyway. | ||
They're both not at work so I'm assuming it's maybe late. | ||
But it's cringe and everyone made fun of them for it. | ||
A few months later they launch the Dylan Mulvaney thing and nuke their own company. | ||
Trying to recover, they launched a partnership with Harley Davidson. | ||
unidentified
|
We're Manly Beer, we drive motorcycles and everyone made fun of them. | |
And then, I can't remember who it was, uh... | ||
Well, they got made fun of. | ||
Then they partnered with UFC, and everyone made fun of them. | ||
Sean Strickland came out, said, I'm gonna fix you, and many people started saying, hey, look, it's fine. | ||
Joe Rogan was like, who cares? | ||
The beer's fine. | ||
Then they sponsored Shane Gillis. | ||
And Shane Gillis is not a woke comedian. | ||
They, I don't know what capacity they're working with him, but he got canceled for, I think he was doing like an Asian accent. | ||
And still, people are like, I don't know. | ||
He got canceled for doing an Asian accent? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
That's so cool. | ||
That's what it was, right? | ||
It was an Asian accent on a podcast, like... It was on Saturday Night Live and then someone found an old video of him doing it. | ||
This is why it's so clearly, like, just, it's about an attack vector, because, like, the guys in South Park have been doing Asian accents for the entire time that they've had Shitty Walk, you know? | ||
That's right. | ||
Or City Walk. | ||
You know and so Bud Light made a commercial now for the Super Bowl and it's the Bud Light Genie and it is it is it's it's it's like someone just Put a bunch of random words in a AI and it spat out. | ||
It's AI generated commercial I think they were just like I don't know And they're like, okay, a guy opens a fridge, and he grabs a Bud Light, then a genie pops out, he wishes for heavy metal hair, a woman wishes for wealthy clothing, another guy wishes for one big arm, then they wish to be at a party, then Post Malone is there, then a T-Rex comes in, Post Malone takes credit for it, then they wish everybody has Bud Light, and the genie tries dancing, and then they're like, the Bud Light genie, and it's over. | ||
Oh god, that sounds horrible, man. | ||
unidentified
|
Bizarre. | |
I don't know who can conceive of this. | ||
I like Post Malone. | ||
He's cool. | ||
I'm like, we broke them. | ||
They don't know what to do at all. | ||
And they're like, Post Malone, dinosaurs, genies. | ||
And then Donald Trump, the Trump card, Bud Light somehow got Donald Trump to post, please, please drink Bud Light. | ||
unidentified
|
I hope he at least got paid for this, then. | |
Maybe he knows somebody in the company, or he just saw that — because it is — Anheuser-Busch does have a factory in the United States, at least one. | ||
I think the headquarters — it's a subsidiary of a Belgian company, so technically it's Belgian, but it is entrenched in the United States, hires Americans. | ||
And that's what Trump's concerned with, is those people, but that's like a short-term thing. | ||
You can't — if you're always trying to fix the people around you, but you're not looking at the bigger picture of what's causing the problem, you might end up just feeding into the greater problem. | ||
Let's do a poll. | ||
Smash the like button if you think we should not buy Bud Light until they apologize. | ||
I know that the like count is going to skyrocket because of that. | ||
That's kind of the point. | ||
But I would actually agree. | ||
I think with this move and we've got the upcoming strike that's going to happen, which is going | ||
to just decimate Bud Light. | ||
I think that's why Trump, they tapped the big guns. | ||
They're like, Trump, we need you to come out. | ||
I wonder how much they've pledged. | ||
I mean, look, if Donald Trump is coming out in defense of Bud Light, they've basically aligned themselves more than any company could align themselves. | ||
So Bud Light, just publicly declare you're committing a billion dollars to Donald Trump's re-election, in some capacity. | ||
I'll tell you this. | ||
How about you run a commercial apologizing, saying, Anheuser-Busch loves America, made a terrible mistake, and is deeply apologetic for the insult and the offense, and then Donald Trump walks in the frame and says, and that's why I drink Bud Light and cracks one open. | ||
Then we go buy some. | ||
It's just like, please accept my apologies so that our global corporations can take you over. | ||
Thanks, I'm done. | ||
I learned my lesson. | ||
It's like a bad relationship. | ||
I'm never going back. | ||
I already made my move, you know? | ||
Why doesn't Donald Trump post... Donald Trump should come out and be like, everyone go buy Conservative Dad's ultra right. | ||
unidentified
|
Right? | |
Why don't... why aren't we building the parallel economy up? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
That's a question I ask myself whenever people are like, why are you not voting for Donald Trump? | ||
I go to come to questions like, why is he not tapped into what we what's really going on? | ||
Why is he like still corporate? | ||
Why is he still playing with the big money guys? | ||
And because he's a million? | ||
Because he's a millionaire? | ||
Well, so he's a million years old. | ||
Here's a question for everybody listening. | ||
It seems like a general sentiment response to Trump is if they apologize, that's all they have to do. | ||
Apologize. | ||
For those that drink beer, and for those that drink a lot of it, because Bud Light's not a, you know, I'm basically trying to say, like, you know, if you're going to the bar with your friends, I'm not going to buy them. | ||
I wouldn't order Bud Light ever, even before the boycott. | ||
Yingling, okay? | ||
If we're going to get a beer, it's going to be a yingling, maybe. | ||
I had one of those with Seamus over the last week. | ||
unidentified
|
It was nice. | |
They're great. | ||
What's up, Seamus? | ||
And, you know, if they only had, like, your traditional Blue Moon, perhaps, But for those that drink a lot and you've got something lighter, would you consider drinking Bud Light if they issued a public statement? | ||
Let's say they tweeted out a card and it just said, we are sincerely apologetic for having sponsored Dylan Mulvaney. | ||
We understand it was offensive. | ||
We deeply apologize to those who were offended by it and we will absolutely work to bring customers back. | ||
Would that be enough for you guys? | ||
One, in the chat if yes. | ||
Two, if you will never drink Bud Light no matter what. | ||
Well, I'll answer that. | ||
No, I would not. | ||
They want their young drinkers, they want to get their young drinkers, they want to get those young people hooked on their drinks, their alcohol drinks. | ||
I'm not into it. | ||
But like apologizing for having done that. | ||
Not good enough? | ||
I'd be like, the Nazis apologized to get you on their team before World War II was over. | ||
unidentified
|
I don't think we can compare Bud Light sponsoring Dylan Mulvaney to the Nazis. | |
Hey, Thomas Jefferson said that central banks are more dangerous than standing armies, and a lot of this stuff is corporate. | ||
Oh, it looks like a mixed bag. | ||
We got both of those. | ||
Looks like people are, it's a mix between ones and twos. | ||
Some people are saying they're never going to drink it again. | ||
Two is never going to drink it again, right? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Oh, they said two of the twos. | ||
Everyone's just basically saying no, never again. | ||
Yeah, a lot of twos. | ||
Wow. | ||
Even with an apology, it's no good. | ||
Yeah, but you know, the chat here on YouTube, it is definitely, it's got a negative bent on it. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
We're influencing it in real time. | ||
It's got a negative bent on it. | ||
They generally are kind of like no people. | ||
What did Luke say? | ||
Did you say Luke? | ||
Luke said he wasn't going to do it. | ||
Okay, hold on. | ||
What if, what if they apologize with a video from James Lindsay, which opens with him saying, him standing next to the CEO of InBev, apologizing for having sponsored Dylan Mulvaney explicitly, saying they truly did not understand the nature of gender ideology and these far left fringe policies and how they were affecting the business. | ||
Now that they see how wrong it was, They would like to give the next 20 minutes of their airtime to James Lindsay to explain the problem of Marxism, cultural Marxism, far-left gender ideology, and racial ideologies in our schools, in our universities, in our politics. | ||
Take it away, James. | ||
Would you then buy a Bud Light? | ||
If that was at the Super Bowl? | ||
Yes. | ||
Super Bowl? | ||
Yeah. | ||
I would because I know James Lindsay would be like a complete jerk for like the first five minutes. | ||
He'd be so savage in that first five minutes on that. | ||
And I'm trying to not swear to you. | ||
I was just trying to come up with like what's the antithesis of Dylan Mulvaney? | ||
Like what is the opposite of what you could do? | ||
Probably that. | ||
James Lindsay giving a lecture on the problems of these woke ideas. | ||
It would be the opposite. | ||
It would be like a real woman giving a lecture. | ||
Just like a busty woman being like, we're so sorry. | ||
Big cooters. | ||
Big cooters that have had sex with real men before. | ||
Very different. | ||
Normally my victory condition is if they sell the company. | ||
If they were to sell the Anheuser-Busch back to an American owner, then I'd consider working, buying from their company again. | ||
But what you're saying, like if they did do that with James Lindsay and they did like a campaign to educate people, I'd be open to that. | ||
Is InBev owned, is it traded on the stock market? | ||
A.B. | ||
InBev? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
I think it's a public, yeah, it's public. | ||
If it's traded on the stock market, it's not really an American or foreign company. | ||
I mean, the owners are whoever owns the stock, you know? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Their headquarters is in Belgium. | ||
It's in Lavoon, Belgium. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I mean, they sell things all over the world. | ||
They stop being... Like, nowadays, it is really true that there are, you know, transnational, you know, companies that actually transcend nation. | ||
Like, Japanese car producers are a huge example of that. | ||
Like, Toyota, etc. | ||
All those companies, most of them are made in the U.S. | ||
unidentified
|
too. | |
Happy Technical Tuesday for those who celebrate. | ||
Let's jump to the story from scnr.com. | ||
Tucker Carlson confirms interview with Vladimir Putin. | ||
It's our job, our duty, is to inform people. | ||
And apparently he now wants to interview Zelensky as well. | ||
A lot of speculation because Tucker Carlson was seen flying to Moscow. | ||
And of course, everybody thought this was going to be the Putin interview. | ||
Apparently he was advised by the US government not to do it. | ||
But, ladies and gentlemen, I really, I look at this stuff and I'm like, the machine is failing. | ||
That's just it. | ||
They can't stop Tucker. | ||
They tried to stop him. | ||
But the internet has given people an opportunity to build up their own platforms with their own voices and allow us to actually communicate in ways that could end war. | ||
Because I think when people hear what Putin has to say, if Tucker Carlson does this right, and he can do it wrong, if he does it right, I think he can actually help simmer down tensions that are pushing us towards a World War III scenario. | ||
I like it. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Hopefully. | ||
My concern is that if Tucker doesn't ask hard questions, it will be viewed as a puff piece. | ||
Yeah, and people are going to make that argument regardless. | ||
But there's an American journalist detained in Russia. | ||
Currently? | ||
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
Yeah, do we know his name? | ||
Is it Evan? | ||
Right, right, right. | ||
Let me get his name. | ||
unidentified
|
I can't remember his last name. | |
I feel bad about that. | ||
But I do remember Gonzalo Lira, who was in Ukraine. | ||
Evan Gershkovich, Wall Street Journal reporter. | ||
Wall Street Journal may be not necessarily populist right, but they're not far left. | ||
And so they've got a reporter currently detained in Russia. | ||
Tucker Carlson presses Putin on this reporter and why he's being held, or even gets him released and returned, then that will be seen as a tremendous peace effort and substantially more legitimate. | ||
However, I think the interview probably already happened. | ||
So at this point, you know, we will see what this becomes. | ||
I bet he's back in America before he, or he was back in the U.S. | ||
before he put that stuff out. | ||
Well, people in public saw him. | ||
So they knew he was there when he was there. | ||
I mean, let's be real, the State Department knew he was there before he went. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh yeah. | |
But I think this would be, this is Wall Street Journal's Evan Gershkovich detained in Russia in March 2023. | ||
This reporter was arrested in Russia while on a reporting trip. | ||
And, uh, many people have been calling for his release. | ||
This has been, it's been almost a year now. | ||
And so, I don't know the circumstances. | ||
I really don't. | ||
And there are challenges to that because what was he doing? | ||
Who was he in contact with? | ||
For all we know, this guy was actually trying to assist Ukraine or whatever. | ||
But if Tucker presses him on issues like this, it'll be seen as more than just commentary. | ||
My concern is that Tucker's interview will end up just being like, so what do you think about this? | ||
So what do you think about that? | ||
And then Putin just says, oh, this, so that, and it's like, we knew his opinions already. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Oh, sorry. | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
I was going to say, I think it's crazy, like, they're going to try and just stop is for him to humanize him at all, because a lot of people, a lot of Tucker's, um, like his interviews in general humanize people a lot. | ||
I think that's like the one thing they don't want to have happen at all. | ||
Like they can't stand for this person, this person who's been trying to make Hitler be humanized, you know? | ||
Yeah. | ||
So, uh, Natalie F. Danilishian says, just checking in on the left, and they're not okay. | ||
So here's a funny image. | ||
It's Tucker Carlson wearing a Russian hat. | ||
Do you know what's really funny about this image? | ||
It looks like George Bush Jr. | ||
No. | ||
It was that everyone's favorite press secretary had a similar hat. | ||
unidentified
|
Jen Psaki! | |
That's right! | ||
She had her pink little commie hat, and Tucker never wore that! | ||
unidentified
|
She did! | |
These people are insane. | ||
Chattanooga Times Free Press. | ||
Here's one. | ||
The newest Soviet hero. | ||
And there's Tucker. | ||
But I think some of these are old. | ||
I think they're just, you know... | ||
Russian dressing haha and and Tucker is putting on they cannot me these are definitely old because it says Fox on the microphone He doesn't been there for some time Swanson Turkey Carlson frozen frozen Russian asset like that one's not even funny. | ||
That's the internet Those are probably all old though because they all have met Fox News and he's not there anymore. | ||
This is great. | ||
Oh I've been wanting to interview Putin for a long time. | ||
I wanted to go there with Lex Friedman a long time ago. | ||
I just had a vision. | ||
I was laying in bed like, I have to do this. | ||
It has to happen. | ||
It's similar. | ||
I think that the message of why there's war has been obfuscated. | ||
Why? | ||
I don't know. | ||
How is his English? | ||
Putin? | ||
I don't know. | ||
He can speak a little. | ||
It'd be great if he gives the interview in English, dude. | ||
It'd be so good. | ||
It's part of what makes foreign leaders... But he can't articulate himself as intricately in a second language. | ||
Well, you said that you were unsure of why the war was going on? | ||
I think a lot of people don't know what the hell's happening. | ||
They're like, does Putin want to take over Europe? | ||
That they think that that's what's happening. | ||
I've thought that he wanted that trade port in Sevastopol and they're trying to secure land bridges like East 105 and East 97, those freeways that go down into the Crimea across the northern. | ||
So they have to take that land and they haven't really advanced much further than that. | ||
It doesn't look like they want anything other than Mediterranean Sea access. | ||
And that's not really a casus belli to throw our men and women at a meat grinder and the poor Ukrainians to fund a meat grinder for those people, like, I don't think so. | ||
And if they want a new world order, man, Russia and the United States can collaborate and make that happen. | ||
We have a very, very important note, contextual update on the Mayorkas impeachment. | ||
Blake Moore, off the hook. | ||
Blake Moore voted to impeach Mayorkas, only changed his vote because they needed a procedural reason to refile next week. | ||
So Blake Moore is in favor of impeaching Mayorkas. | ||
The Republicans said, I guess it can't be a tie. | ||
We need a reason to refile. | ||
So change your vote. | ||
He said okay. | ||
So apologies. | ||
Marjorie Taylor Greene tweeted that out. | ||
Good on you, Blake. | ||
no votes were Mike Gallagher, Tom McClintock and Ken Buck. | ||
Blake Moore is actually helping them refile because of the other three. So in fact, if anything, | ||
donate more to that guy for for for for standing up. So apologies to Blake Moore. I appreciate | ||
that. Good on you, Blake. Yeah. Anyway, Carlson cited numerous interviews the corporate press has | ||
held with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky describing them as fawning pep sessions | ||
specifically designed to amplify Zelensky's demand that the US. | ||
enter more deeply into a war in Eastern Europe and pay for it. | ||
That is not journalism. | ||
It is government propaganda of the ugliest kind. | ||
The kind that kills people, actually. | ||
Actually, he didn't actually say. | ||
I added that because it should have been there anyway. | ||
But he's right. | ||
He's right. | ||
And I do... I mean, look. | ||
I look at what's going on politically, and I really do feel like we have a strong opportunity to end this war machine, at least in some capacity. | ||
Trump's far from perfect, but shout out to Dave Smith, when he came on the show, and even he was like, yes, Trump was way better than his other presidents on foreign policy. | ||
And we like those things. | ||
We don't like what he did. | ||
We like the things he didn't do that every other president did. | ||
And I'm like, we're winning the libertarians. | ||
We're getting some of them, and that's good enough. | ||
Now with moves like this, they cannot silence us. | ||
I don't want to go to war. | ||
Vladimir Putin invading Ukraine has nothing to do with me or you or anyone in the United States. | ||
It is garbage nonsense. | ||
And that's it. | ||
We don't care about any of these other conflicts around the world. | ||
Some country invaded some other country and what do we say? | ||
Nothing. | ||
But when the U.S. | ||
is trying to invade and do these things. | ||
Did you hear what Chuck Schumer said the other day? | ||
When he was saying that, like, we may be at war in Eastern Europe. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, God. | |
He said, if we lose this war. | ||
And I said, excuse me? | ||
We lose this war? | ||
I didn't realize you thought we were in it. | ||
I mean, I've been saying it's us. | ||
Many of those who aren't stupid knew it was us. | ||
But now you have the gall to publicly state we are fighting this war? | ||
Chuck Schumer just said on TV, the U.S. | ||
is at war with Russia. | ||
That's insane. | ||
unidentified
|
Bulldoze DC. | |
And the war machine. | ||
I like the sound of that, except my concern is liberal economic order has the war machine. | ||
It's the military, industrial complex, Boeing, Lockheed, these big contracting corporations. | ||
If it transitions to a new world order that's more of a corporate governance, are they going to own the war machine then? | ||
Is it going to be corporations that own Lockheed and Boeing? | ||
Instead of them being subservient to the American government. | ||
They're already owned by corporations. | ||
Yeah, they're fascistically tied in with the U.S. | ||
government, but are they going to, like, disperse the span with the U.S. | ||
government and then go to some corporate fascist collusion and then it'll be, like, governed from Switzerland and we'll just become global serfs to this corporate monster? | ||
I'm not sure what you're talking about. | ||
The New World Order, they want to, like, corporatize governance. | ||
I understand that, but I'm not understanding the actual structure you're talking about or trying to describe. | ||
My concern is that right now, The American government is sort of in control of the war machine, or the war machine's in control of the American government, but they have a collusive state of being. | ||
And we're benefiting from that as Americans, in a way, in a big, big, big way. | ||
A lot of other people are suffering tremendously as a result. | ||
So if they transition that and it's no longer the American government that is tied up with this war machine, would it then just be corporations that are totally in control, no free speech anywhere? | ||
unidentified
|
I think they want it to be a lot more like China. | |
Yeah. | ||
So then, if that's the case, I'd rather not shut down the liberal economic order. | ||
I mean, maybe... I know the world wants that, and I don't like 700 American military bases all over Earth, and bombing trade routes, and waterways, and to keep American steel flowing, but like... | ||
I see two paths. | ||
I see technocratic fascism or like militaristic fascism. | ||
I don't know what's... If there's a third way, I'd like to see it. | ||
That's my problem. | ||
You don't see a third way either? | ||
Like it'd be decentralized governance of some sort? | ||
No. | ||
There's no perfect system. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
There's just... Look, communism works perfectly. | ||
And this is a fact that it's time everyone recognized. | ||
It works perfectly after you kill anyone who dare oppose you. | ||
That's the issue. | ||
When everyone is ideologically homogenized, your system works because everyone expects what they get. | ||
If you're starving to death, that's the world we live in. | ||
Like Harry Tubman said, I freed many slaves, I would have freed many more if only they knew they were slaves. | ||
So, whatever system you have, if you eliminate dissent, the system operates. | ||
Is it the best system? | ||
Well, it depends on what your definition of best is. | ||
So, if you look at parliamentary governance, democratic constitutional republics or whatever, I think what we have in the United States is the best we can come up with, but you will still get power coalescing, which leads to corruption that needs to be accounted for and held accountable. | ||
But so long as everyone agrees ideologically, governance doesn't matter. | ||
If everyone on the planet was as religious as Seamus Coghlan, you'd have world peace, you would have no conflict, no crisis, there would be no war, because they would all be ideologically homogenized. | ||
It's not because Seamus is the nicest person in the world or because his religion is correct, he may argue that, but it's because they all completely agree on their moral structures and foundations as to what they should or should not do, which means no one would steal. | ||
No one would murder. | ||
If someone did, they would all agree, like, that was a mistake. | ||
Even the person who did it would be like, I can't believe I did it. | ||
You're right, I was wrong. | ||
The problem is when people disagree on what they should be allowed to do. | ||
And we're trying to find that balance. | ||
You had resource distribution. | ||
Right, but if everyone was ideologically homogenized, resource distribution would not be an issue. | ||
They would all completely agree. | ||
Someone would say, well, we need food in this city. | ||
Unfortunately, the only food available is by those people and they've grown it themselves and they're going to keep it. | ||
Understood. | ||
It's theirs. | ||
That's it. | ||
The issue is there are people who believe I should be allowed to steal from you because I'm more important than you. | ||
And then there's a guy who says, I grew this food. | ||
It's mine. | ||
You can't take it from me. | ||
I will defend it by force because I don't want to die. | ||
Yeah, there's the people of, like, kindness and compassion are the basis of reality, and then there's the people that are like, might makes right, and those are the people that tend to run things. | ||
unidentified
|
Or they're very envious. | |
Now, to be fair, what I'm saying only works with a moral foundation. | ||
If there are people who have no morals, they could all completely agree, it's my right to take it, and you get nothing but chaos, war, famine, you know, murder. | ||
I'm talking about I think it's fair to say that Christianity, if people followed those tenets, the way like, and again, chapter of Seamus Coghlan, the way he does, faithfully executing these beliefs and these good morals, then there'd be world peace. | ||
At least for a time. | ||
Until people start to develop counter morals and then fight, sure. | ||
It's entirely possible. | ||
That, you know what, I'm gonna say this. | ||
It is completely factual. | ||
For a time, is the correct response. | ||
The United States was a Christian nation. | ||
It had some bad things in it. | ||
Worked towards improving. | ||
Was very tolerant of evil. | ||
Let the Marxists come into their institutions. | ||
And now Christianity is being purged. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, that's true. | |
What do you guys think is like the best or like the least, what's the off-ramp, Phil? | ||
What's the best path forward? | ||
Because if we don't want the liberal economic order anymore. | ||
Why? | ||
Because it's the military bases all over earth are suppressing and annihilating our neighbors and causing massive hatred and blowback. | ||
I don't believe, I reject the idea that the liberal economic order needs military bases all over the world. | ||
I think that the military bases all over the world are mostly there to deter the expansion of nuclear weapons. | ||
And I think that whether or not you think that's the right thing to do or not, that's what I believe the military bases are all over the world for. | ||
It was the US saying, We'll put you a military base in your country. | ||
That way, if anyone invades your country, they risk harming the United States, and we have nuclear weapons, so that means you don't need nuclear weapons. | ||
That's the whole post-World War II World order is that order. | ||
There was the Warsaw Pact, which was the Russians, and then there was the United States and NATO. | ||
And the US was like, look, we don't want to have every country in NATO to have their own nuclear arsenal, so we will put nuclear weapons in these countries that are likely to be overrun in Europe should the Russians decide that they're, or should the Warsaw Pact decide that they're gonna run tanks over Poland. | ||
And it prevented World War III. | ||
Massive stability, relative stability on Earth of nations. | ||
Prevented? | ||
What's that? | ||
Prevented? | ||
It seems to have prevented World War III as we know total war. | ||
Prevented a nuclear exchange when the Soviet Union existed. | ||
So maybe it's better that we don't create a new world order, that we just keep the liberal economic order and tell people, you know, get used to the American military bases. | ||
But if there's a communist, if there's a Russian military base in Florida, I'd be pretty nervous. | ||
We literally just said that the military bases don't have anything to do with the liberal economic movement. | ||
I don't know about that. | ||
The military bases have to do with the fact that we don't want nuclear proliferation. | ||
But it's also like, and buy our oil and US dollars, by the way, if you want this deal as well. | ||
Well, not necessarily. | ||
Because there are other reasons to have the US dollar. | ||
Part of the reason why we do foreign aid, and I'm against all foreign aid, but part of the reason we do it is so that way other countries have dollars, so that way they'll spend the dollars, which also gives value to the dollar. | ||
The value of the dollar comes from the fact that there's a demand for taxes. | ||
It does come from the fact that we have a strong military and we can use military force, but it comes from a bunch of different places. | ||
Now granted, none of those places are backed by anything of value, but it doesn't mean that the liberal economic order is inherently connected with military bases all over the world. | ||
Have you guys seen The Line? | ||
I have not. | ||
In Saudi Arabia? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Oh, yeah, yeah. | ||
They started building it. | ||
Oh, they did start it? | ||
Yep. | ||
We should pull up a video of this crazy, this is wild building. | ||
Well, the thing about it is it follows their regular population path that actually is along that line anyway, so they're really just consolidating and making it into a 15-minute city. | ||
Is it along a river or something? | ||
No, no, it's not a river. | ||
It just connects. | ||
If you look at the way Saudi Arabia is along the one coast and then across the whole country, they have another one right there. | ||
They're building a linear city. | ||
Different reports give it different lengths. | ||
I've heard 110 miles, 105 miles, and 75 miles. | ||
But the idea is it's a 500 meter tall, 75 to 100 mile long skyscraper that will have, I believe, underground transit that shoots back and forth and can get from end to end in 20 minutes. | ||
Wow. | ||
Yeah, so travel 75 miles in 20 minutes. | ||
Somebody, I think, might have been Mike Cernovich, somebody really funny tweeted out, they were like, well, this is a border wall, so whoever's going to be living there, prepare to defend your wall. | ||
But it's in the middle of the desert, but he actually trenched it out. | ||
I think this will be Elysium. | ||
Like, you ever see the movie Elysium? | ||
If you watch the video for this, they talk about how it'll be this, look at this, like mirror-walled skyscraper city. | ||
It's one big skyscraper. | ||
And they said one of the purposes of having it be the line is that you can exit, you can get to any point within it and easily walk out into nature and back. | ||
But I think, and they also mention it is being strategically placed within six hours of the world. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, that's creepy. | |
Air travel. | ||
Interesting. | ||
Can you leave that wall anywhere you are? | ||
It's not really a wall. | ||
You can fly there within six hours. | ||
It's not really. | ||
I mean, obviously in the Eastern Hemisphere. | ||
So they're like everywhere around we'll have like a six hour path to arrival. | ||
And it's being built in Saudi Arabia, correct? | ||
Yep. | ||
Right across it. | ||
And they've started building it. | ||
I did not think they'd actually do it. | ||
And they've already got like construction. | ||
They've made small cities for just construction. | ||
It's so crazy. | ||
Look at how much earth that is. | ||
That's so much dirt. | ||
workers live and the materials are housed and they've started trenching out. | ||
This is what the image, look at this. | ||
Look at how much earth that is. | ||
They started trenching out to build the foundation of this. | ||
I wonder how far across it is or how wide it is. | ||
They say, but you can actually look at the truck and then, you know. | ||
It's pretty big. | ||
It's, it's, it's pretty big. | ||
This is like, uh, Wonder of the World. | ||
I mean, a lot of them come from bigger ships. | ||
I agree that it gets done. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Part of me is excited that someone's actually trying to do something grandiose. | ||
Like, it'll be remembered in hundreds of thousands of years if it stands, yeah. | ||
Like, the wreckage of this would remain for tens of thousands of years. | ||
Yeah, I mean, if it works, like all the pictures and stuff, if it works and it turns out the way that it could, and of the places where it might, Saudi Arabia does have the proper government structure to be like, alright, we're just gonna make this happen. | ||
Yeah, the king. | ||
The king said do it and we've got enough money to throw at it, so. | ||
Never-ending money. | ||
The reason I brought this up is we're talking about the New World Order and stuff. | ||
I feel like this will be the multicultural, globalist city. | ||
Part of the plan is to get a lot of humans away from nature into megacities. | ||
Into a giant desert? | ||
Where you will live in a big tube? | ||
Which is so reliant on the outside for resources, man. | ||
If they get cut off from the outside, that's like, where do you run? | ||
How do you get out of there? | ||
They're gonna have probably vertical farms every certain distance. | ||
But it doesn't matter. | ||
Based on what they were saying about it, the fact that they're building it, I wouldn't be surprised if in a hundred years it's where all of the powerful global elites live. | ||
The politician for your country won't live in your country, he'll live in the line. | ||
He'll have a massive, you know... Penthouse suite up there. | ||
There's a thing in SimCity called the Arcology. | ||
I used to play those games a lot, SimCity 2000 or something, where there's like just a standalone ecosystem, kind of like Biodome. | ||
I thought they were so awesome. | ||
Because you can build them on Mars, you can build them underground, you can build them on the moon, like self-contained ecosystems. | ||
But then now the threat of like, If they get cut off from the outside, and then the people, like if you've seen Biodome, you know. | ||
Didn't go so well for the guys in the biodome, I don't think. | ||
They just smoked a lot of weed or something? | ||
I don't remember. | ||
No, that was Pauly Shore. | ||
They weren't supposed to be in it. | ||
They got lost. | ||
Oh, they snuck into the biodome? | ||
There was a party or something, and they went in, and I think, what, they're trying to go to the bathroom? | ||
Oh, they started building this a year and a half ago. | ||
unidentified
|
Did they really? | |
Wow. | ||
Yeah, in November. | ||
unidentified
|
What about Neom? | |
But, like, the actual trenching? | ||
I assumed it would just fizzle out. | ||
Huh. | ||
unidentified
|
Isn't Neom supposed to be their other... That's the name of it. | |
That's... This is Neom? | ||
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's the name of it. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, okay. | |
Alright, so this is part of it. | ||
unidentified
|
How do you spell that? | |
Yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
Neum is the name of the city? | ||
I think it's the company. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, that's what they want to be their, like, modern thing, their modern city. | |
That was the project. | ||
Dude, this looks like Destiny. | ||
Have you guys ever played Destiny? | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
When you go to the Vex, it looks like this. | ||
Yes. | ||
Yeah. | ||
That's creepy. | ||
Nessus, that reminds me of Nessus, the planet, the Nessus planet. | ||
I love that stuff. | ||
Play video to discover those. | ||
unidentified
|
For too long, humanity has existed in dysfunctional and polluted cities that ignore nature. | |
Now, a revolution in civilization is taking place. | ||
Imagine a traditional city and consolidating its footprint, designing to protect and enhance nature. | ||
The line will be home to 9 million residents and will be built with a footprint of just 34 square kilometers. | ||
I just want to point out what you just watched. | ||
They took everyone's homes, mashed them together, and then put walls around them. | ||
They literally just put you in jail! | ||
unidentified
|
Yup. | |
That's so creepy. | ||
unidentified
|
Five minute city? | |
You never have to do that. | ||
What are we getting sold? | ||
unidentified
|
A 15 minute city? | |
I want a five minute city! | ||
So the lines communities are organized in three dimensions. | ||
Residents have access to all their daily needs within five minute walk neighborhoods. | ||
Five minutes city. You never have to. | ||
What are we getting sold a 15 minute city? | ||
I want a five minute city. We got to build our own line. | ||
unidentified
|
And the lines infrastructure makes it possible to travel end to end in 20 minutes | |
with no need for cars, resulting in zero carbon emissions. | ||
By leveraging AI technology, services are autonomous, saving you time and effort. | ||
Designed by world-leading architects, the line is 500 meters tall. | ||
200 meters wide. | ||
Wow! | ||
Wow. | ||
170 kilometers long and housed within an elegant mirror glass facade. | ||
Intelligent solutions. | ||
Oh, who are these gonna shoot the hell out of this thing? | ||
unidentified
|
This thing's right... I didn't know it was south of Jordan. | |
It's east of Egypt, it's west of Saudi Arabia. | ||
Oh, they're dead. | ||
unidentified
|
Wait, wait, wait, they showed on the map. | |
Equitable views? | ||
This is Westside Eurasian. | ||
Oh, they're dead. | ||
Wait, wait, wait, they show on the map. | ||
unidentified
|
As a series of unique communities offering a wealth of amenities, | |
providing equitable views and immediate access to the surrounding nature. | ||
With 40% of the world accessible within six hours. | ||
Okay, there we go. | ||
40% of the world accessible in six hours. | ||
unidentified
|
At the heart of the globe's key trade routes, a place for commerce and communities to thrive. | |
That's Sinai right there? | ||
Yeah. | ||
The Houthis are gonna start shooting missiles as soon as the Israelis do something that piss off the Houthis. | ||
Look out, they're just gonna start shooting missiles at it. | ||
And maybe there's gonna be a World War III. | ||
They're gonna flatten all the opposition and then build their line. | ||
They literally call it a new wonder of the world. | ||
unidentified
|
That is dumb. | |
in Yemen. | ||
They literally call it a new wonder of the world. | ||
That is dumb. | ||
There's new wonders for the world. | ||
That's Saudi Arabia and that's like where Oman and Yemen are. | ||
The Lion. | ||
If you look at how the wall is built right up to the Gulf of Aqaba, is that what it's called? | ||
Gulf of Aqaba, yeah. | ||
It looks like a border wall. | ||
It looks like they're trying to defend the Gulf of Aqaba with this thing. | ||
To protect trade. | ||
It's a disguised wall! | ||
Which works for Israel and Jordan shipping things south and Egypt through the Sinai. | ||
I don't care, because it's not America. | ||
Foreign country wants to do it, don't care. | ||
I'd actually love to visit, except for the Saudi Arabia thing. | ||
They kind of put women in prison after getting raped, so it's not really a country I'd ever like to go to. | ||
They cut heads and hands off, man. | ||
Yeah, I'm not interested in that. | ||
In the Middle East, you can get your head cut off for witchcraft. | ||
Like, literally. | ||
A dude got his head cut off, like, in the past five years for witchcraft. | ||
It's a lot of propaganda. | ||
Zuby lived from there. | ||
He lived there. | ||
He'll tell you it's a lot of Western propaganda to fear-monger us from going over there and experiencing the world. | ||
I don't know, man. | ||
I saw the court case. | ||
You know, they're like, look, this guy was practicing witchcraft. | ||
There are women who got raped, and then when they report the rape, they go to jail for having sex out of marriage. | ||
Adultery. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Women only recently got the right to drive cars. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Well, very controversial. | ||
I mean, that was a big mistake. | ||
unidentified
|
Do women need to be driving cars? | |
Two steps forward, one step back. | ||
But maybe it becomes the multicultural mecca. | ||
Haha. | ||
You know, it's actually fairly close to Medina. | ||
Yeah, it is. | ||
I mean, but and it to me, it just it look, man, that is just begging for some pissed off radical to just fly something into it. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Drones, airplanes, missiles, rockets, whatever. | ||
It'd be cool to go shopping there. | ||
I mean, yes, I would love to. | ||
I want to see the underground transit system. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
And it's 20 minutes to travel 75 miles in a high speed train underground or whatever. | ||
I'm excited. | ||
Like, I really hope they finish it fairly soon. | ||
Like, I hope it doesn't take, like, 50 years to finish it, because I would like to see what it looks like. | ||
I hope they can knock that 20 minutes on a 15 minutes, though. | ||
though, and I really have sold it. | ||
I mean, I mean, uh, I think theoretically what two decades. | ||
What do you think? | ||
Maybe. | ||
What's their time frame for this? | ||
Well, again, it's Saudi Arabia. | ||
They got money and authoritarian... That's what I'm saying. | ||
This isn't like... They'd be like, do it tomorrow! | ||
It's not like a government contract. | ||
This is the prince of a nation with tons of oil being like, we're making it happen now. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I have unlimited money. | ||
We're going to do this. | ||
It will not look this nice. | ||
The slums will be amazing. | ||
The smell. | ||
Dude, it's gonna be like cyberpunk. | ||
It's gonna be like all these nightmare dystopias. | ||
You see how they have these pictures where like how beautiful it will be? | ||
No, dude, you have no idea. | ||
AI will protect you, then the lights go out. | ||
And like, where's the AI? | ||
Why isn't it fixing the lights? | ||
It is always gonna come down to there are poor people. | ||
And maybe it's possible that if your income drops below a certain threshold or whatever, they just boot you out by force. | ||
For real. | ||
Because otherwise what happens is someone's going to be like, I can pay my rent, my line fee, or I can clean. | ||
And they're not going to clean. | ||
I mean, you can't do anything about it. | ||
And people do drugs, even rich people. | ||
Think of all the Hunter Bidens who are going to be there. | ||
And also, I mean, maybe not isolation, but the lack of freedom, like freedom meaning the ability to go where you want to go to spread out, you know, you're free to move around. | ||
That lack of freedom can cause people to go insane. | ||
What would Manhattan look like with The Line? | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, no. | |
Should we play it? | ||
Oh, yes. | ||
They're going to show it all green and lush. | ||
Yeah, we gotta watch this. | ||
unidentified
|
Reimagining New York. | |
See that? | ||
Okay, I'm sorry, that's hell. | ||
unidentified
|
This is so creepy. | |
This doesn't make any sense. | ||
Cramming 2.5 million people in Manhattan into a single line. | ||
unidentified
|
Why would you do that? | |
And then putting a wall around them. | ||
Progress. | ||
They would do that because they believe they control your carbon. | ||
The idea is getting rid of streets. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Compresses everything. | ||
It would be nice to get rid of streets and just have tunnels. | ||
If they worked. | ||
unidentified
|
I don't want to live in a prison, though. | |
It wouldn't. | ||
Like, if you could just walk down some stairs and shoot to your destination. | ||
Now, hold on. | ||
And it was all grass up- What if? | ||
You'd never have to look both ways when you leave your house, just grass and fruit and shit. | ||
And, there's no prisons. | ||
They just kick you out. | ||
They say you're convicted, they walk out, open the door, be like, have fun. | ||
Let the bears take care of it. | ||
Into the desert. | ||
I've never been to the desert before! | ||
Don't throw me out there! | ||
unidentified
|
Well, in New York... Yeah, in New York, you just let the bears take care of it. | |
The future of urban living. | ||
This is it. | ||
When I'm studying Agenda 2030, they talk about megacities. | ||
It's really a fascinating concept, but that the humans have done so much damage to nature, they want to kind of get them away and let things rewild on their own. | ||
The presupposition in that statement is that humans actually have damaged nature and I reject that entirely. | ||
Like the idea that humans have damaged, that you can damage nature. | ||
Like I don't think that you can damage nature. | ||
Like what is nature? | ||
Nature is like the naturally occurring world. | ||
What is damaging it? | ||
Changing it? | ||
I don't believe, like, the impulse that comes from, like, environmentalists that any human impact is negative and damaging. | ||
Like, I don't know, I don't buy it. | ||
Guys, it's only 200 billion dollars. | ||
It's basically one Ukraine. | ||
I will write a check. | ||
Oh yeah! | ||
For the cost of Ukraine. | ||
National defense. | ||
One country, you can get one weird, long line city. | ||
If I was in Congress, I'd be like, I would like to divert all future funding from Ukraine into building a line, a U.S. | ||
We'll do it in the middle of the country. | ||
We'll create tons of American jobs. | ||
We're going to build the biggest straw. | ||
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
I'm trying to find out when they think it's going to be done. | ||
Yeah, me too. | ||
Check this out, they say by March 2023, more than 4,500 piles had been driven into Module 43. | ||
60 piles per day. | ||
Piling shifted to 45, 46, 47, so... I mean, it's coming. | ||
module 43, 60 piles per day, piling shifted to 45, 46, 47. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
So, I mean, it's common. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I thought it was fake, but what's the, what's the timeline for this thing? | ||
2030. | ||
No, no, no, no, no. | ||
Wait, wait, wait. | ||
No way. | ||
Uh, it will boost their GDP by 2030. | ||
What, just the work? | ||
It's like a work program. | ||
Okay. | ||
And I, I wouldn't be surprised if they opened part of it early when like the first, you know, right. | ||
20% of it's been built and it's kind of like the death star, like. | ||
unidentified
|
It's a fully operational line. | |
I imagine they would want to be like, look, it's working. | ||
You know, the concept works. | ||
There's the five minute cities. | ||
People are living here and they're happy and blah, blah, blah. | ||
So I imagine that they'll probably want it to be open at ASAP. | ||
I'd love to visit this place. | ||
Just the concept of centralizing humanity. | ||
It will be the densest city on earth. | ||
Yeah. | ||
260,000 people per square kilometer. | ||
Manila, the world's most densely populated city, is 44,000. | ||
Smells like it. | ||
unidentified
|
I don't think so. | |
With walls around it. | ||
It's a walled city. | ||
It's the densest city on earth and it's walled. | ||
I mean, you used to need walls when there were siege cannons and stuff, but now they have air power. | ||
Walls don't really do as much. | ||
It's part of their Vision 2030 project. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh. | |
I wonder what's going to happen in the next few years as we get close to 2030. | ||
I think what's going to happen is within the next 16 years, we're going to have an American president tell us to do this Manhattan Wall. | ||
They're going to start pushing this concept. | ||
So 2045, they say total completion, but I think Ian's right. | ||
They're going to roll out modules of it. | ||
So like when module one opens, they'll probably start bringing in, they have to do it. | ||
They can't build the whole thing and then bring in 9 million people. | ||
So there'll be people who have already lived there for probably five or ten years when the final, you know, construction is done. | ||
And then there'll be some big crazy party. | ||
I'd love to go there! | ||
So what are we looking at? | ||
We're looking at 21 years. | ||
21 years until it's done. | ||
I won't even be retired by then, so. | ||
Perfect. | ||
No, you'll still be working. | ||
Yeah, exactly. | ||
All right, we're gonna go to Super Chats. | ||
If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to the channel, share the show with your friends. | ||
Head over to TimCast.com, click join us to become a member and support our work directly. | ||
And you'll also get access to our members-only uncensored show coming up at 10 p.m. | ||
on this channel. | ||
But more importantly, my friends, you will also get to get tickets to our upcoming live event in Martinsburg, West Virginia at the Cast Brew location. | ||
Casper is not open yet. | ||
Won't be open for some time. | ||
Second floor, however, is a private club for members. | ||
So if you're a member and you want to hang out at our private club, you gotta sign up, and then when the tickets become available, you can buy them. | ||
And then, uh, we're working out how we're handling the actual private club in Martinsburg, because it will be, like, if you're a TeamCast member, you'll have access, but it's probably gonna be a tiered thing where I don't know what it might be. | ||
It might be $100 a month for first come first serve access. | ||
So basically our view of it was to compete with the high end clubs they do in places like New York, where they're $50,000 a year. | ||
And this one would be like $100 a month, which basically covers the cost of food, which will be, you know, food and drinks are available. | ||
Certain better foods that might, you know, higher end dinners and stuff, you might actually have to pay for. | ||
But it would pay for the security staff, the doors, and then there would be events where any member could buy a ticket to. | ||
We're not completely sure how it's going to operate yet, but as a member, when we put up the ticket sales, which will be maybe in a couple weeks, that will be for the event. | ||
We're probably only going to have 50 tickets, so you're definitely going to want to be a member so that you can see right when they come up and you can buy them. | ||
But let's read some Super Chits for now. | ||
Smash that like button and... Richard Berdowski says, not first! | ||
You are in fact first. | ||
Nice job, dude. | ||
Unfortunately, you were second. | ||
Unfortunately. | ||
way to first unfortunately you were second unfortunately cori anderson's cori anderson says down goes rana down goes | ||
Yeah. | ||
rana yeah absolutely kale says hey tim i made a cold brew using rise with roberto | ||

|
Yeah. | |
We're proud to be found on Public Square. | ||
Our big TimCast fans. | ||
Well boy, do I have news for you. | ||
Wholesale pricing, I believe, is rolling out. | ||
I don't know if it's available now. | ||
Uh, we have somebody who runs Casper. | ||
We have a staff member who's taking care of it. | ||
But, um, wholesale pricing is, uh, gonna save you a pretty penny. | ||
And then, uh, we'll figure that one out. | ||
I don't know much about it right now, but it's good news for you if you want to get cheaper prices for your wholesaling. | ||
Let's go. | ||
Direction says, could I get a Culture War shoutout for a Kickstarter called Animating Cradle? | ||
It's an anti-woke series with classical values that DC's Jay Oliva wants to make into an animated series. | ||
Tim would enjoy it. | ||
Perhaps! | ||
Well there you go, best of luck, good sir. | ||
Alright. | ||
Chaco says, Tim, Matt Gaetz and Elise Stefanik introduced a resolution to say that Trump did not incite an insurrection. | ||
We talkin' about it. | ||
We're talkin' about it now! | ||
That's right. | ||
Uh, he did. | ||
And so, if they all vote on it, then there you go! | ||
It's- it's assessed and asserted. | ||
Let's grab some more Super Chats and find a good one. | ||
Jason Hutchinson says, Disney reaping what they have sowed. | ||
Where's the popcorn? | ||
This is gonna be fun to watch. | ||
I saw the Marvels. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
I saw the Marvels. | ||
I saw 60% of the Marvels. | ||
Oh no! | ||
I had to stop. | ||
Really? | ||
It is the worst. | ||
It's one of the worst movies I've ever seen. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh man. | |
Yeah, I couldn't do it. | ||
It is... I would describe it like Home Alone 3. | ||
unidentified
|
Geez. | |
That's a horrible, horrible description of a movie. | ||
No, I haven't seen any of that. | ||
That sounds terrible. | ||
unidentified
|
You don't want to. | |
Yeah, watch Home Alone 3. | ||
At least you'll enjoy yourself. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, wow. | |
It was so bad. | ||
Made no sense. | ||
The storyline is dejected. | ||
It's choppy. | ||
They just crammed a bunch of garbage together and said, we fulfilled our contractual obligations. | ||
Have a nice day. | ||
Really, really dumb. | ||
unidentified
|
Mm. | |
Yep. | ||
Very dumb. | ||
So sad. | ||
But good luck, Disney! | ||
Kieran the Meat Man says, Hey Tim, please shout out Biltong Baron on Public Square. | ||
There is also a Timcast exclusive discount in the Discord. | ||
Give me your money so I can advertise more on Public Square. | ||
Sounds great. | ||
We love Public Square. | ||
And shout out to Beaver Fleming. | ||
I had made a comment on the show about, I saw someone at Nitro Circus sponsored by Public Square, and I did not realize it was Beaver. | ||
He's an amazing skateboarder, does backflips and all this other crazy stuff, and he is sponsored by Public Square. | ||
That is like the coolest thing ever. | ||
Shout out to Public Square and Beaver Fleming. | ||
Awesome. | ||
I'm so glad to see Public Square sponsoring, getting involved in the cultural stuff. | ||
Massive. | ||
Absolutely amazing. | ||
We're gonna win. | ||
Let's go. | ||
Rusta Zero says, Favreau really liked Gina actually. | ||
Was gonna make her the star of Rangers of the New Republic, but then KK had her gone. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Catherine, what's her name? | ||
Kennedy. | ||
Catherine Kennedy. | ||
Kathleen Kennedy? | ||
That's mean. | ||
Well, the issue was that Gina wasn't gay. | ||
Yeah. | ||
We all saw South Park. | ||
She was not lame either. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Let's get some more here. | ||
We'll find some more Super Chats. | ||
Jason Dixon says, Tim, the FBI just arrested a MAGA sniper who was trying to kill illegal immigrants. | ||
It feels like another Governor Whitmer fed op. | ||
unidentified
|
It was. | |
This guy was talking to a U.C.E. | ||
on TikTok. | ||
They now have undercover FBI agents DMing people on TikTok. | ||
So he befriended a federal agent and sold them some kind of suppressor for a gun or something and then talked to them about his ideas. | ||
And that's what he's being charged with, like running his mouth. | ||
They're desperately trying to make it happen. | ||
They need it so bad. | ||
And they're not getting it. | ||
unidentified
|
They're calling him like a militia person. | |
I don't think there's any evidence he was in a militia other than him wanting to be. | ||
Eloy Lopez says, thank you, Tim, for reminding and inspiring everyone to create content that doesn't hate America. | ||
I made over 100 books, 25 on American values, 50 books on America's awesome animals, on Amazon because of print on demand. | ||
God bless Texas and America. | ||
I want to know the name of that stuff. | ||
Where do we find you on Amazon? | ||
Yeah, we got to find it. | ||
Eloy Lopez Curiel. | ||
Well, good luck. | ||
I hope people buy your books. | ||
Let's go. | ||
Philip Reid says, buy Cast Brew, don't delay, act now. | ||
Supplies are running out. | ||
Allow if you're still alive six to eight days to arrive, and if you follow there may be a tomorrow, but if the offer is shunned, you might as well be walking on the sun. | ||
I know the guy that wrote that song. | ||
He was actually here. | ||
He played. | ||
He is a great musician. | ||
That's crazy. | ||
That's Greg Camp. | ||
Shout out to Greg Camp with Smash Mouth. | ||
And now The Defiant Son. | ||
Yes. | ||
And he was here, and it was crazy, because I didn't know a lot about him, but then they were like, oh yeah, he wrote All Star and Walking on the Sun. | ||
I was like, no. | ||
That's crazy, dude. | ||
Super chill. | ||
He has the same birthday as me, too, April 2nd. | ||
Oh, look at that. | ||
Shout out to Greg Camp. | ||
Let's go. | ||
Brett Tesdahl says, don't know if you saw on X, Roseanne Barr reached out to Elon Musk regarding the Disney lawsuit. | ||
Game on. | ||
Cool. | ||
This is in regards to the Connors. | ||
Roseanne, she got fired from her show. | ||
Was that an ABC show? | ||
No, they just killed Roseanne. | ||
They just slaughtered her on the show? | ||
One day, the show came on and they were like, Roseanne died of an overdose while sleeping. | ||
Or like, while you were all sleeping. | ||
And it's like, oh. | ||
That's it. | ||
Moving on. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
Such an awful thing to do. | ||
For her politics. | ||
What did she do? | ||
She took Ambien and then tweeted at somebody? | ||
Anti-Semitic slurs? | ||
No, no, no, no, no. | ||
I don't remember. | ||
Okay, it wasn't even near- She tweeted a photo of the Planet of the Apes character at Valerie Jarrett. | ||
That's right! | ||
Right. | ||
And then they said that she was racist. | ||
And she was like, what do you mean racist? | ||
She just looks like that lady. | ||
And like, yeah, but she's black. | ||
And she's like, I don't understand. | ||
And they were like, you compare a black woman to a Planet of the Apes character. | ||
And she's like, I didn't mean it like that! | ||
And they're like, you're fired. | ||
She's like, I thought she was white! | ||
Yeah. | ||
I thought she was white! | ||
She really is. | ||
But like, it's kind of ridiculous that when, so we had, you know, Alex Jones came on the show | ||
and kept saying, I am a gorilla. | ||
Because of that book, Ishmael. | ||
And so we made the meme, like we haven't really, it's been a long time, but we had the shirts | ||
and it's the gorilla going, I am a gorilla. | ||
And then people were calling us racists for having a shirt that says, I am a gorilla. | ||
And I was like, my dude, it is an Ishmael reference. | ||
We are making a reference to global policy, not race. | ||
If you think that's racist, what are you thinking about people? | ||
Take it up with Daniel Quinn, the writer. | ||
Yo, I don't know if y'all remember this. | ||
Some of the prints that were sold, yo, I think this was intentional. | ||
Some of the prints that were made of it had the gorilla wearing white gloves with a blackened face. | ||
Yup. | ||
And someone posted a picture being like, why did my t-shirt come like this? | ||
And we reached out to Teespring, which is a company that does the distribution. | ||
And we were like, yo, what the? | ||
This is like, we made a gorilla thing, which is just like, it's like, I am gorilla. | ||
Like it's about Ishmael. | ||
It's about being tough or whatever. | ||
There's the gorilla emojis. | ||
And there were some people receiving shirts where I'm like, how do you accidentally make the hands look like white gloves? | ||
Yeah, I don't believe it. | ||
I was like, I think somebody who worked at these companies knew and they changed it intentionally. | ||
Because it's not Teespring. | ||
Teespring just contracts like there will be a print shop. | ||
Yep, Teespring. | ||
And so Teespring was really cool about it. | ||
They apologized and they were like, we'll get it sorted. | ||
No, no, no worries. | ||
And mad respect to them. | ||
We still sell merch through them and everything's been great. | ||
And so they were pissed too. | ||
And it was apparently like one print shop somewhere was making these shirts. | ||
And so if you have one, I mean, at some point, I guess it might be worth a lot of money. | ||
It's the blackface gorilla Timcast shirt. | ||
Yeah, crazy, right? | ||
Dude, it's so wild that Ishmael, that whole book of Ishmael, I read it in like 2007 and I was buying into all of it. | ||
Now, the way Alex is like, the book's telling you like the gorilla's like, humans are bad, I'm a bad, I'm a gorilla, kill myself. | ||
He's like, it's about like, you're so bad being a human, like what you've done to the earth, you're a taker. | ||
There are takers and there are leavers and we've out, the takers have outbalanced the leavers and we need more leavers on earth. | ||
I get that concept, you know, but it's interesting to think about it that I was manipulated by this book. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Grey was an awesome book. | ||
Really awesome. | ||
Frontline Texan says, Tim, you're absolutely correct about MAGA being a different party and using a different animal logo. | ||
They unintentionally did a genius move and began copying Leninist tactics. | ||
Lenin is quoted as saying, if you cannot make the party, capture the party. | ||
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
Interesting. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
All right. | ||
Uppish says, I live in California District 48. | ||
After that comment, I'm likely voting for ISA, lol. | ||
Well, again, uh, Blake Moore did good. | ||
Yeah, I saw the, uh, here we go, yeah, uh, Axton Manson's Moore switched his vote from yes to no so they could reconvene. | ||
So shout out to Moore, and, uh, I hope, I hope, uh, that correction goes far and wide because he did a good thing. | ||
And so he earns extra brownie points for that one. | ||
That's right. | ||
Ken Buck is way more than a Democrat. | ||
Look up his ties. | ||
unidentified
|
He's a classic big government spook. | |
Well, there you go. | ||
That's from Two-Way Willie. | ||
Lurch says all of that cheering sounded awfully female. | ||
Well, there you go, and then he says repeal the 19th. | ||
All of what cheering? | ||
When they didn't impeach Mayorkas. | ||
I hope people realize that repeal the 19th as a meme is like, it'll get a chuckle. | ||
You're not gonna win anything if that's your actual platform. | ||
You're gonna lose. | ||
Because women will vote against you. | ||
Exactly. | ||
But how about only net taxpayers can vote? | ||
I mean look anything as much as I like the idea of like having people that have a stake in the society voting or being limited to vote or only those people being able to vote You're never going to convince people, even people that the law would not affect, you're never going to convince people that it's a good idea to limit people's ability to vote. | ||
Even if you could manage to prove that it would produce better results, people are still going to have that Knee-jerk gut reaction that it's bad to take away people's right to vote because this is the... I mean... But you don't... No sane politician is ever going to go and say like, hey, we want to take away your right to vote. | ||
What you say is the Voting Enhancement Act will protect the sanctity of democracy. | ||
You like voting, right? | ||
And you like the system. | ||
We want to protect it. | ||
So let's stand up against these bullies who are trying to damage this country and defend the Voter Enhancement Act. | ||
Yeah, it would have to be something like that, but if your average person understood. | ||
Oh, I love that meme. | ||
Have you seen that meme where it's like, a politician, they're like, I'd like to propose the Free Sodas for All Act. | ||
Will you pass it? | ||
Yes. | ||
Yay, it's passed. | ||
Person goes, now where's my free soda? | ||
Free soda? | ||
This bill bans owning a dog. | ||
It's real close. | ||
Yeah. | ||
All right, Jason Dixon says, Tim, call for Scott Pressler as RNC chairperson. | ||
That would be amazing. | ||
I don't know if anyone's more effective than he is. | ||
Oh, he'd be great. | ||
He's great. | ||
But they're not gonna do it. | ||
Because even Trump is still an old guard. | ||
He is. | ||
Probably, yeah. | ||
People like him better than the Uniparty, but Trump is still... | ||
He's still gonna be going to, like he wants to own the Republican Party, you know? | ||
So there are loyalists in the Republican Party who are agreeing with him, but if we really want a MAGA replacement, I gotta be honest, that's beyond the Trump era. | ||
That's like, that's 2032. | ||
You know, that's a Vivek Ramaswamy. | ||
Starts firing people. | ||
What Trump did was capture a, you know, an emotion that is kind of going on in America. | ||
But he doesn't know why or how. | ||
He just knows that he did. | ||
Everything with Trump is gut instinct. | ||
He has absolutely no idea what he's doing. | ||
He's going by gut. | ||
And it just so happens that he's got a great gut instinct. | ||
Linda Welker says, Blake Moore of Utah changed vote to no for procedural reason. | ||
He is not against impeachment. | ||
It keeps it open until next week. | ||
And I wanted to read that one just to make sure we can hammer it as much as possible because I don't want anyone negatively impacted because of a contextual error on our part. | ||
So shout out to Blake Moore for doing the good work. | ||
And he gets double points. | ||
Everyone who voted no, or who voted yes to impeach Mayorkas, that's good. | ||
He changed his vote to help keep it alive after the Republicans were betrayed. | ||
Then he gets two brownie points out of one. | ||
Good stuff. | ||
I've got to say, though, if the votes tie, you should be able to do it again next week. | ||
You shouldn't have to lose to do it again. | ||
unidentified
|
A tie is... Yeah, I don't know what the... I don't know how that works, though. | |
Like, I don't know why that procedural reason was, you know, I don't know. | ||
Yeah. | ||
But I'm glad he did it. | ||
So shout out. | ||
Shout out. | ||
Let's go. | ||
Maxaw says we lift the ban... The boycott? | ||
When they apologize and meet the demands of workers threatening to go on strike. | ||
I don't know. | ||
What's he talking about? | ||
Bud Light. | ||
Anheuser-Busch. | ||
Oh, yes. | ||
Okay, that's it. | ||
Yep. | ||
Let's see what we got. | ||
Two Way Willie says, You can tell that the Trump family knows the Budweiser people. | ||
Go back and watch Don Jr.' 's stuff. | ||
We do need to get them to apologize. | ||
IBL everyday before. | ||
Drank Bud Light before. | ||
I don't think there's going to be any apology coming forward. | ||
I understand that's what people want, but it is already a cold topic now, at this point. | ||
It's been too long since it happened. | ||
I mean, it started in, what, June? | ||
Yeah. | ||
I'm telling you, come April, when the year-to-year wraparound in sales hits... You think so? | ||
They're going to start reporting... No, no, no. | ||
They're going to report a 1% increase in sales, and then they're going to... Bud Light will declare victory. | ||
Bud Light does not have the moral convictions you guys have. | ||
They don't care, they want to win in the press, and they will get all of their allies in the corporate media to announce the boycott has failed, Bud Light sales are recovering. | ||
And of course the numbers won't actually be there, it's just going to be that come June When it's year-over-year sales, despite the fact they're down 30%, it will normalize, and if they sell one more beer, now it's up. | ||
And then everyone in the corporate press is gonna say, a year after the boycott, Bud Light is recovering, sales are up, their stock price has already rebounded, the boycott has failed. | ||
So we need action now. | ||
And that may be forcing them to apologize before June. | ||
I think they're just like, look guys, we make it a year, we'll get the PR on our side, that's all that matters. | ||
Oh, I think they're desperate right now to right the wrong, to right the ship, and they're going to have a general strike on their hands and the company's going to go under. | ||
Now that's bad. | ||
Bud Light could go under. | ||
Because volume is everything. | ||
So, I explained this when the strike first happened, but I'll break it down real quick. | ||
We wanted to sell Cast Brew Cold Brew. | ||
We wanted to sell actual cans that we could have sent to like gas stations and stores. | ||
It would cost us $5 per can at the amount we are capable of ordering. | ||
Because the amount of profit you can generate is razor thin. | ||
So if I sell 10 cans of cold brew, and I make 10 cents, that is not nearly enough to keep this machine going. | ||
Like, I'll make the money back for the cans, but we're razor thin profits. | ||
But what if I sell 10 million cans? | ||
That 10 cents per 10 cans actually adds up. | ||
Now I'm making millions of dollars. | ||
And then you can start to save up and invest and you have this big system. | ||
So for Bud Light, as they start selling less and less and less, their margins are going to be collapsing exponentially. | ||
They're not going to be able to pay their staff, which is happening. | ||
The staff will then go on strike, which will make even less Bud Light available. | ||
Already people aren't buying it. | ||
And then the costs are going to be too great to produce a can of beer. | ||
And they're going to say, we go micro-brew or we stop production of this failed brand. | ||
So, I don't know when that could happen. | ||
That could happen in April. | ||
And for the record, Donald Trump Jr. | ||
did demand, well, Daily Mail says he demanded it, but he apparently wanted to end the boycott in April of 2023. | ||
unidentified
|
Which was bizarre. | |
That was when it started. | ||
April 14th. | ||
It started 10 days before that. | ||
unidentified
|
Really? | |
Yeah. | ||
Wow. | ||
Okay. | ||
It was like April 7th, wasn't it? | ||
It was on his trigger shows. | ||
April 1st. | ||
Interesting. | ||
They did it on April 1st. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
They should have just said, like, April Fools. | ||
Fools on you. | ||
Yeah, they should have. | ||
It was a joke. | ||
Didn't you get the joke? | ||
Let's go. | ||
Daniel Chenoweth says, Apology plus James and Sean for a two-minute voice on their belief. | ||
Who's Sean? | ||
Oh, Strickland. | ||
Sean Strickland. | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
Yeah, that'd be great. | ||
All right. | ||
Ox Lawrence says, If someone told you men are women, then a year later they tell you they changed their mind, would you seriously believe them? | ||
InBev is officially OutBev for life. | ||
Yep. | ||
Sean L says, Tim, this is the late night show my kids will grow up listening to. | ||
I'm asking everyone for prayers for my wife. | ||
She's 34 weeks with twins, Ezekiel and Evelyn. | ||
She has severe preeclampsia. | ||
Please pray for her health. | ||
Sean, I hope for the best. | ||
I pray for the best. | ||
Best of luck to you and best health. | ||
And I hope everyone does send their prayers and best wishes. | ||
unidentified
|
I will pray as well. | |
Healing. | ||
What is preeclampsia? | ||
I mean, I've heard of it. | ||
unidentified
|
I have no idea. | |
Let's find out. | ||
Don't know enough about it. | ||
Preeclampsia. | ||
Did you find it? | ||
unidentified
|
I had a wonderful pregnancy. | |
I had no issues. | ||
It says, according to Wikipedia, serious complication of pregnancy that can occur after the 20th week or after giving birth, characterized by high blood pressure, proteinuria, and other signs of organ damage. | ||
High blood pressure. | ||
Breathe out. | ||
Breathe out the hot air out of your mouth. | ||
That's the carbon dioxide. | ||
It adds an electron onto it. | ||
You control your body pressure and hence your blood pressure. | ||
It's really cool. | ||
So just focus on your breath and breathing out that hot air. | ||
You'll be okay. | ||
A Apron says, Disagree with demanding an apology from Bud Light. | ||
Tim, you and the crew have always encouraged people, don't apologize to the woke mob. | ||
Wouldn't a demand by boycotters, a mob, be nearly the same? | ||
No! | ||
Um, because they're evil and we're good. | ||
That's it. | ||
I'm not gonna exa- I- I- No- No explanations, um, we're just righteous and therefore everything we do is good. | ||
No, I- I will get into it. | ||
They're lying. | ||
They're lying about what they actually believe to manipulate you. | ||
We want Bud Light to reject those who are lying and trying to destroy and subvert this country. | ||
The people on the right, take a look at the Mayorkas impeachment. | ||
These Republicans are so, I have to be honorable and compromise, it's the right thing to do, and then they get steamrolled for it. | ||
And the left just says, we'll burn everything down. | ||
They burn down police stations and don't go to jail for it. | ||
Now, actually, a guy did get convicted for burning down a police station, and I think it was during the George Floyd ride, so that does happen. | ||
I'm not saying it doesn't. | ||
But they will stand in Congress in lockstep for the most insane policies. | ||
AOC siding with Nancy Pelosi in an instant. | ||
They're whipped into shape. | ||
So when we say Bud Light apologize, it's because we need them to reject the horrifying Marxist garbage, and we need a public acceptance of that. | ||
When you apologize to the woke mob, they weaponize it against you. | ||
They say, aha, we got you, you proved it, now we own you. | ||
If Bud Light apologizes to us, we say, okay, we'll buy your beer from you again and give you money. | ||
Totally different. | ||
