jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		All right folks here we are Jack Pacific once again in for the great Tim Poole Did actually get a chance to see Tim earlier today and spent a little bit of time with him.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		He's still working through the throat issues, but he's doing better.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Bolji's not in the basement.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		He's on the met.
		No, he's not.
		He's not in the basement and he And he was he was on the board.
		I can confirm that he was on the board today and he was working through that.
		So who knows?
		We might might see him pop in here and there.
		The issue though is that if he pushes it too hard, he's going to be out again.
		And so that is why he's on the men right now and we're we're we're absolutely, you know, we can't, we, none of us can wait until Tim comes back.
		And the one thing that he did tell me to share with everybody, he said, wow, there's, you know, there's so much news.
		There's so many topics out there that it's killing him to not be working right now because he's got so much that he wants to shit to say and so much that he wants to share with everybody.
		So that's, that's kind of his message, but he's doing.
		well.
		We wish him well.
		And yeah, we got another episode of the Poso cast here tonight.
		And unfortunately, it's one of those nights where, you know, I wish we had something, anything else to talk about than the story.
		Of course, we're going to be getting into the Minneapolis massacre this evening.
		And it's horrific.
		It's disgusting.
		We're going to talk about, there might be a couple of other pieces of stories that we get into.
		But honestly, I think this show's, it's dominated everything.
		And we're going to talk about the individual that has been IDed in this situation.
		Again, another.
		another transgender shooter targeting a Christian school in this case a Catholic school on the very first mass of the school year.
		So we're going to get into all of that in just a little bit.
		Before we do, I want to tell you though, of course, that this show is brought to you by tonight Cast Brew Coffee.
		So make sure you're going out there, you're supporting it.

		So, you know, if you got someone who wants coffee, who doesn't like coffee, you go for it.
		Another update that I wanted to give an update on Psycho Stew.
		We talked about this last night.
		I believe it was around 112,000 dollars.
		His GoFundMe is now up to 160,000.
		It's just about to break 165,000.
		This, this pro wrestler who suffered a horrific attack.
		And Phil, actually, I think you had a medical update.
		on Psychos 2.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, he's awake.
		I saw on X today he's awake.
		He's got people around him talking to him and stuff.
		So it looks like he's going to make a full recovery.
		I mean, obviously with TBI, it's hard to say what kind of long term effects it's going to have.
		Yeah.
		But it does look like he's going to be, you know, back up and around fairly in fairly short order.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		That's a hard video to watch.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		It's it is.
		And I I I meant to mention this last night, but we saw that Chris Jericho had thrown some money in.
		So that's great.
		Jericho, you know, he always gets involved with stuff like that.
		Great guy.
		So really appreciate to see that.
		Another great guy though, by the way, is our guest.
		I'm told that it is his first TimmyCast, even though tonight is PosoCast.
		But you and I know each other, folks.
		It's the great doctor Steve Turley.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Hey guys, it's great to be with you.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		It's an honor.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Tell us a little bit about yourself and what you do.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Well, we were actually just talking about this before we went live, but this is kind of a full circle for me, which is interesting because I was in academia for twenty years, and it was right at the height of the first Trump campaign.
		And I didn't think conservative commentators really understood Trump.
		They thought he was like a Democrat in sheep's clothing and all that.
		He sounded more like Bernie Sanders when he was talking about economics and so on.
		But I had studied nationalist populism and particularly the way it was exploding in Europe.
		And they focused on three things, border security, economic security and cultural security.
		And all of a sudden, when I heard Trump speak, I said, Oh my, it's come to our shores.
		So I was like, I looked at a colleague of mine who's in marketing, I said, You know, I'm really, I'm getting frustrated listening to these talk radio guys kind of going the more neocon ideological analysis of Trump, not quite understanding that this is a new paradigm, nationalist populism.
		And what should I do?
		How can I get that out there?
		And he said, Well, why don't you start a YouTube channel?
		And I'm like, I don't even know how to load a video at this point.
		And I don't even know what to do.
		And he said, well, here, let me share with you a couple of channels that are doing something like that, that are commenting and teaching through YouTube.
		And he sent me to, and I think you guys have had Sticks Hex and Hammer on here.
		Well, let's see, Sticks.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		He's a great guy.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		He sent me Sticks back in 2016.
		And then he sent me this guy, Tim Poole.
		And this is when IR, this is 2016.
		I think IRL was really young.
		I thought maybe 300,000.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		It wasn't even IRL.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		It wasn't even IRL yet.
		There you go.
		It was just Tim passed giving the comments.
		And I said, Oh, I can do that.
		This is the coolest thing in the world.
		So I started doing it in November of 2016.
		Trump wins.
		I kept going with it.
		And here we are.
		I finally retired from academia and I'm a full time broadcaster, very much thanks to this, this, what's happened here.
		So this is really cool.
		This is for me, it's a very exciting thing to kind of go full circle here.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		I think I remember the video where you actually left, like, for the last day at work.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah, yeah.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		I remember that video.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I remember how long ago was that?
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Oh man, when was that?
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, like 2021, 2022, something like that.
unidentified		Yeah.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		I can't even remember now.
		It all blends together.
		Just a few years ago, but it's been, it's been amazing ride and and it's thanks to you guys.
		I really appreciate it.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Amazing.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		All right.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		In addition, we've got Libby Emmons is here.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Hi, Jack.
		Hi, everybody.
		I'm Libby Emmons.
		I'm glad to be here tonight with the post millennial and humane events dot com.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		There we go, Brett.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		What's going on, guys?
		Brett, normally pop culture crisis Monday to Friday, 3 pm Eastern Standard Time.
		Let's talk politics though.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		And of course, Phil.
		Hello, everybody.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		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.
		Let's get into it.
unidentified		Right.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And so, you know, anti-communists are certainly something that.
		That comes up tonight, a horrific situation where, And actually for this story, the the Minneapolis massacre, let's go over because we've got the Post Millennial, but we also have the editor and chief of the Post Millennial with us, Libby.
		Can you give us the the sort of update on not the update but just a rundown?
		If if someone's living under a rock they have no idea what happened in Minneapolis.
		Walk us through the story as you have it now.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Well, this is something that we were tracking all day in the newsroom at the Post Millennial.
		I myself, Hannah Nightingale and Roberto Wake Roll Cruz, and they did most of the writing on this.
		And by the end of the day, I was like, go get some air guys because it's brutal just from the newsroomroom covering this kind of stuff, covering like massacres of children.
		So what we had in Minneapolis was a man whose mom used to work at the school who identifies as transgender, 23 years old, came up to the school.
		It was the first week of classes at Annunciation and all the kids were at mass.
		He had three weapons with him, a pistol, a shotgun, and something else.
		I don't remember what it was.
		Some of these weapons were emblazoned.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		A pistol, shotgun, and a semi automatic rifle.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		And a semi automatic rifle.
		And the barrels.
		of the guns, one of them said, you know, kill Trump on it.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Very reminiscent of the Christchurch shooter.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, very like a lot of we've seen a lot of terrifying right on the messages came up to the windows outside the school, started shoot outside the stained glass.
		The church, yeah, the stained glass windows.
		It looks like maybe some of the doors were barricaded on the side that he was shooting into.
		He shot through the stained glass windows, shot, killed two students, injured fourteen students.
		There was actually a fifth grader who dove under the pews and said that his friend Victor covered him under the the under the under the under the pews, yeah, and protected him.
		And Victor got shot in the back and was taken to the hospital.
		And the shooter killed himself inside the church.
		And yeah, now there's 14 injured children.
		Two families have lost their children and some injured adults as well.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And I think I did see, you know, I've been tracking all the updates, CNN and everyone and post millennial updates and of course Daily Mail.
		And I believe that they did say though that they believe that the injured students that are in the hospital as of right now are expected to recover.
		So they're not expected.
		So they're, you know, we were hearing people that were on, you know, that were that were critical and it seems as though they're not anymore.
		So that's that's a real blessing.
unidentified		That's a real blessing.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Thank God it's right.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And so the shooter, Libby, walk us through the very strange, very bizarre case, but unfortunately now becoming almost a trend of this, this Robert aka Robin Westman.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		So we had, wait one second here.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Sorry about that.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		You had what?
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		Sorry about that.
		No, I was just, I was talking to one of our writers who was was working on something and we were debating whether or not the idea was that this was a former student of the school.
		There's some back and forth.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Well, it looks like the mother was a head.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		The mother was a head worked at the school.
		So this guy, as soon as it was revealed what his name was, which came onto social media before it came up in any of the news outlets, Robin Westman, it turns out that he had gender transitioned.
		He had like a changed his name.
		His mother had signed off on that.
		So he had supportive parents who were helpful apparently in his gender transition.
		He had a lot of really wild writings.
		We were talking about this earlier, a lot of anti Jewish stuff, pro Gaza stuff, and some writing that was really hard to decipher.
		It was like.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And anti Trump.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, anti Trump stuff.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		And a lot of it was, we were looking at it and it looked like it was in Russian, but it was kind of phonetically used.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it was using the Russian alphabet, the Cyrillic alphabet, but it was English for the most part.
		So if you know the Russian alphabet, which is kind of just based on Greek anyway, if you know the Greek letters, you can I was trying to muddle my way through it earlier today and then someone used AI and that just you got it right why do we do it ourselves?
		Well, you got to, you got to challenge yourself.
		But, you know, very horrifying manifesto because what you would see in this thing, and maybe we will, maybe we will check out some portions of it because, yeah, we got it.
		You see, what you see is someone who is talking about very matter of fact how he plans to kill the children and is discussing, and it's almost a journal where he's like talking to himself quite a bit, where he's discussing when is the best time to target the children.
		Would it be when they're going into the gym?
		But it's tough because apparently the gym is in the basement.
		So they would be hard to get there with this arsenal of weapons, which, you know, obviously you can't really conceal a semi-automatic rifle.
		And then eventually we know, obviously he chooses this mass and I believe they were still entering And so it was this, so you can see the direct connection between the manifesto, the pre-planning, and the actual event itself, because the idea was to target the children as they were moving.
		The school is in one building and the church is in another.
		So the idea was to target the children as they were walking into the to the church and it's it's a miracle that that more were not killed.
		Yeah, because because because because of the way this was planned.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		It kind of reminiscent of the Nashville shooting.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		It's very reminiscent.
		Yeah.
		And so there are two, two martyrs now in, well, they're in heaven, but this took place in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
		Let's let's go.
		I want to get Dr. Turley's take on this.
		You know, why why are we seeing this trend?
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		I'm just writing, I put a phrase down, the banality of evil.
		And if I recall, that was Victor Frankl's.
		phrase who suffered through the Holocaust and just the way I looked at some of those videos of him planning this attack and I just that's the that's the that's the motto that I heard it's just the pure banality of what he's doing.
		It's just so matter of fact and it reminded me of the Rutgers study that was published oh what back in May.
		They called it assassination culture.
		Did you catch this?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I did see this.
unidentified		Yeah.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		So there was a Rutgers study that asked the question, do you think it is justifiable to assassinate presidents?
		And there were two stunning numbers.
		The first was the amount of people said yes.
		It was about a third of those who said yes.
		But what was even more stunning was that a majority of self-identified Democrats, 55 percent, said that it was at least somewhat justified to assassinate President Trump.
		He's in good, he's in good company.
		Sixty percent of self-identified leftists believed vandalizing and destroying Teslas was justifiable.
		And what we were seeing here and what shocked the scholars of this study is they were calling it assassination culture.
		And what it seems to be is the left appears to have lost the ability to discuss and to deliberate and to debate.
		What wokeness basically does is it designates certain things as so sacred, certain identities as so sacred that any dissent from them is considered to be heresy.
		And what do you do with hereticsics?
		You excommunicate them, right?
		And what's the ultimate form of excommunication?
		Right?
		You burn them, exactly.
		And so there just seems to be this, this virus, this infestation of excommunication.
		I mean, even Bill Mars brought it up.
		What are we going to do?
		We can't, this is when Biden was president, you know, what are we going to do?
		You can't, you can't, you know, make half the country disappear.
		You gotta learn to get along with your MAGA uncle.
		You're gonna have to.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		They don't, though.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		But they don't.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		That's the thing.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		They've taken to excommunicating their family members.
		And that was, that was, I think, the earliest sign for a lot of people was that if you can't, leave it at the dinner table and move on with your life with the people you have the closest relationship with.
		You can't expect them to hold that with people who believe something different that have no connection to them whatsoever.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Well, there was this very crazy thing in July.
		There was an article out from the New York Intelligencer saying, It's okay to go no contact with your MAGA relatives.
		That was in July 2025.
		Yeah.
		They've been saying the same thing since like 2016, 2017.
		And at the same time, also in July, same week, was an article from the New York Times, an opinion essay saying, Is it time to stop snubbing your right wing family?
		And so they're still debating this, right?
		And the crazy thing about the is it time to stop snubbing your right wing family one, the guy who wrote it was talking about how he got into surfing and the only person he knew who was into surfing was his MAGA brother in law.
		So he had to, like, you know, descend and lower himself to go talk to his brother in law because that was the only guy who knew who was surfing and the brother in law was like, sure dude, I'll go surf whatever.
		No big deal, like that's cool.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		This, you know, this kind of stuff, we can laugh about it and we all, we all laugh about, you know, I've cracked more than my share of jokes about Antifa or others, but at the same time, these are the individuals who are so sick and twisted and depraved that they are far more willing to pick up a firearm and walk into one of these situations.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		A school.
unidentified		Yes.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		A school with little kids and start opening fire.
		And so they're absolutely deadly dangerous and it's absolutely, deadly serious.
		And so, you know, we were, as this story was breaking, you know, I didn't even, I didn't, I didn't even mention it to my wife.
		I didn't even mention it to Tanya Tay because, you know, this, as we were finding out about this, our kids are in a Catholic school and we're., you know, we didn't have a school mass this week, but I'm sure we're going to, I think we have one coming up.
		That's going to be the first one.
		And the school actually sent out a very nice letter.
		Obviously, I'm not going to be naming it, but.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I wanted to get in my car and run over and pick up my son.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		It's close to home.
		You know, it's really close to home.
		And by the way, for any parent, right?
		For any parent, but, you know, it really is.
		religious schools and particularly Christian schools that are targeted again and again and again.
		And I tweeted something earlier about this.
		And the reason that I believe it is is because at the end of the day, these lunatics believe that God created them wrong.
		So they hate God for creating them.
		They realize that they can't attack God directly.
		They can't do anything to God directly.
		So what do you do?
		You attack his children.
		You attack the children, you attack, you find the thing that's going to hurt him the most by going after that which is most precious to him, the children of God.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		There's a lot of substance to that argument, the idea that they're going in their mind, obviously, whatever.
		Yeah, I mean, whatever kind of twisted away they had approach the world.
		But it's beyond just attacking God for making them wrong.
		It's attacking God for the crime of making the world imperfect.
		The left really believes that you can perfect the world, that you can perfect humanity, that if you just make enough changes, just do enough things or whatever it is, the topic of the day or the topic that's most important on their mind, they believe that you can perfect humanity.
		That's why the farthest left believes in communism.
		They believe that they can perfect society.
		And so they want when they see the imperfections, they want to like lash out at God and all existence for the crime of being imperfect.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Right, but it's human beings that brought imperfection and evil into the world, right?
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		I mean, we're the ones that ate that apple and got kicked out of Eden.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		But for a lot of these younger, like the shooters of today, what is happening now is we've got decades of the media pushing back and saying that Christianity is evil.
		We've got decades of the media.
		The other big thing with these stories is like, look, leftist violence is largely ignored in all sentiments.
		If you were to ask the average person, where do you know?
		If you were to ask the average person, like, where does the majority of the what they call domestic viol terrorism and violence coming from, they're going to tell you it's coming from the Right.
		None of all of these stories end up.
		Yes, all of these stories end up getting buried to page three after enough, you know, in just due course.
		It's not going to take much time for that to happen.
		And what you do is you prime people who are, look, I was just reading a thread yesterday.
		I don't remember who posted it.
		It might have been Josie.
		But somebody said, like, isn't it interesting how after serial killers became media fascination in the in the 70s and 80s, it immediately gave way to school shooters in the 90s.
		And this was yesterday before that happened.
		And now that's kind of grown from what was serial killers as a matter of public fascination, school shooters in the 90s, it felt like it was about despair.
		and like a lack of motivation for life or a lack of home life, right?
		It was about your parents getting divorced and antidepressants.
		And that's just given way to another thing today, which is just further, which is identity.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Sure, but now with the trans shooter and the, you know, which we've seen a number of trans shooters at this point, you have politicians wearing shirts that have like a knife on it and a rose or semi automatic guns saying protect trans kids.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And that's the lieutenant governor of the state.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Lieutenant governor of the state of Minnesota, yeah.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		There's no such thing as trans kids.
		Wait, wait, wait.
		There's no such thing as trans kids.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		The cover of Eugene Willis.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		If you pull up that Still Boneless, I know posted it.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		This, this, the T-shirt that Libby's talking about.
		Just pull up Still Boneless.
		He's got it.
		And then, but then I want to go to the manifesto after this because we've got a few because we, we don't even need to speculate because this individual said in his own words all of the things that we're talking about.
		So just, yeah.
		And that's part of the manifesto that's just extremely, totally demonic.
		Totally demonic.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		He's being ported by demons.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Oh, there's a Cyrillic.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So, well, this is actually in Russian.
		So, Bamgitia minyah, help me.
		I don't want Bamgitia help.
		Probably can't say that on YouTube.
		When will this end?
		I'm not even going to try to say that.
		Kagdieta something.
		Zakotchistia.
		But no, there's, there's, scroll down a little.
		Here's this.
		Here it is.
		So this is the one that's Lieutenant Governor.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Totally insane.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Of Minnesota.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Yes, it is.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Protect trans kids with a rose and a knife.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Totally.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Which is, you know, it just seems to be.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		And they act like if you're like the whole trans concept is just very sweet and rhyming.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		But it's obviously incredibly aggressive.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		There is something to that.
		You know, cultural anthropologists have looked at that with where they interpret violence and hysteria as a form of possession.
		So it's not them.
		They're being possessed by literally evil spirits, demonic spirits.
		So when they commit crimes, if you're a protected identity, when you commit crimes, it's not your fault.
		It's the fault of the malignant spirits that are outside of your control.
		And in political correctness, what are those malignant spirits?
		Racism, bigotry, phobia and on and on and on.
		And so if you're part of that group, if you're committing crimes supposedly in the name of the right or and so forth, well then you are the demon.
		They don't let you off.
		They'll let one group off and say they're not doing it.
		They're being overwhelmed by satanic, demonic forces.
		But when the right commits crimes, that is satanic force.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Right.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		So it is a double, it's a radical double standard where one is possessed where the other one, that's their nature.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		That's who they are.
		That's a tragedy, that is, it's so terrible that this good, promising young student, you know, fell into this trap.
		You see, they use the same rhetoric for common criminals.
		Exactly, exactly.
		Not even in cases like this, just they use the same, oh, it's socioeconomic factors.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Society made it this.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Society made it this.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		It's a cry for help.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		It's always making a victim out of whoever's exactly.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Which means we're the criminals.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Which means you're forgetting the actual, you know, where you're missing the actual criminal and the actual victims.
unidentified		Right.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So I want to write.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		That's what the left does.
		They're literally an inversion of the truth all the time.
		Right, right.
		Whether it be the glorification of things that are essentially evil or symbols of evil, or the people that are actually on the attack are saying, well, I'm attacking because I'm actually being attacked.
		They make themselves the victim.
		It's just an inversion of whatever the truth is.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Let's, let's, because I was, I was, I was talking about this earlier with Libby, is that, you know, I, uh, when I see crazy, I want to poke it with a stick.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So let's, let's delve into this manifesto a little bit.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		That's why I don't hang out with you.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
		So I think I, I'm, I'm going to skip around, but this part obviously is, it's in English.
		I think I am dying of cancer.
		It is a tragic end.
		It is entirely self-inflicted.
		I did this to myself as I cannot control myself and have been destroying my body through vaping and other means.
		And there was a report that he used to work at a cannabis dispensary.
		I think I have lung cancer.
		I felt many pains that make me think I am the pathologist.
		I don't want to recover.
		I don't want to throw my life away by rotting in a hospital bed.
		I don't want the rest of my life to be as a cancer patient.
		So it's going down a little bit.
		So here it is.
		Due to my depression, anger, and twisted mind, I want to fulfill a final act that is the back of my head for years.
		And so now you're talking a little bit about apologizing to family, but look at this right here.
		Escape, I want to escape from this world.
		I want to escape from the constant bills, the crappy jobs, crappy people, and injustice of America.
		I am done with this.
		I will not bow.
		I will be selfish and leave you to pick up the pieces.
		It is my fault.
		Blame me, but please move on.
		I want to skip ahead to the other part here.
		I am a sad person haunted by these things that do not go away.
		So there you go, just like Dr. Charlie was talking about, they are haunted by these things.
		I know this is wrong, but I can't seem to stop myself.
		I am severely depressed and have been suicidal for years.
		Only recently have I lost all hope and decided to perform my final action against this world.
		I don't want to kneel down for the injustices of this world.
		I want to die.
		I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees constantly in pain.
		And you hear this framed as if this is some kind of heroic act, as if this is some kind of striking back against injustice by murdering children.
		Why would someone believe something like that?
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I think that's absolutely insane that they would believe something like that.
		But this person is clearly deranged, right?
		They hate themselves, they hate everyone else.
		And so they determined completely sensically that they have to take children out.
		And children are also the embodiment of innocence, you know?
		It's people who have not, it's people who have not experienced the horrors of life or gone through intense difficulty.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		I mean, a lot of children do, but, you know, they don't look like it from the And so you decide to just But when you're that blinded by hatred and depression and nihilism, that doesn't even register to you.
		If anything, you feel anger towards someone who hasn't been faced, you know, hasn't had their life faced with those troubles yet.
		Like they don't feel a sense of guilt for what they're doing in that context, they feel anger that that person has not had to go through what they have.
unidentified		Yeah.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Or in their mind that they have.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		I'm thinking of a GK Chesterton quote, the early 20th century essayist, where he said, What makes suicide so horrible is you don't murder a man, you murder all men.
		Murder the whole world.
		And I'm reading that, and that's what I'm hearing.
		I'm hearing that kind of logic playing itself out.
		If I'm going to leave this world because I hate it so much, then my murder will be the murder of the world itself.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Think about that.
		Like we used to live in a world where the discussion of suicide was something that could actually be extremely nuanced, where if someone is going through cancer treatments, they don't want to go through this on their own.
		There was a societal argument about whether that person should have to face that on their own.
		But we're so far past that now that we have governments that subsidize it.
		Right.
		Like we're long past the discussion about the subsidies.
		That's the discussion about the sanctity of human life.
		And why wouldn't someone feel nihilistic and depressed when the media tells you that a certain side of the political aisle is evil?
		When a media tells you that violence against them maybe not in so many words, but you can only call someone evil so many times before you're cosigning the idea that violence against this person is a just act.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		We also have a problem, which is that morality itself stems from God and it stems from God's teachings.
		And there is no morality without God.
		You have to base it in God's teachings or otherwise you end up with some sort of freakish utilitarism where everyone is just pushing for the most happiness.
		And that doesn't work.
		And so what we have now is a culture that has abandoned God but thinks it still has morality.
		And in fact, morality is essentially at this point in American culture a cultural lag.
		It is what remains.
		It is an echo of when we had a religious society.
		Now, the idea that morality stems from God, I know is a controversial one in our atheist culture, but it is actually true.
		There is no logical reason to be good to other people.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Do you believe that it's controversial?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I mean, even someone like Nietzsche who was, who was, you know, well, maybe it's only controversial when I talk to my mother.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		So I don't know.
unidentified		I mean, fair enough, but I think a boomer or a Night Xer.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		My point is like, the idea that morality is man made in the absence of God is something that, you know, again, goes back to Nietzsche, which is like 150 years ago or whatever.
		So I don't think it's particularly controversial.
		I think that, I mean, Nietzsche predicted essentially the whole of the 20th century and he predicted the nihilism that we're kind of going through right now.
		This kind of stuff is directly connected to nihilism and directly connected to the idea that nothing really matters if there is no God or whatever.
		So I don't I just don't think that that's actually correct.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		And you mentioned the inversion, which I think is very interesting because the Bible is a very clever book because in Genesis 3, when the serpent first appears, you'll notice the entire scene is inverted from the natural order of Genesis 1 and 2.
		So it's the animal telling the world so God creates the world and he creates, you know, it's God, it's man and then it's woman and then it's the animal that's cre the animal life.
		But in Genesis 3, it's all inverted.
		So it's the animal that's calling the shots.
		It's then he's telling it to Eve.
		It's Eve now telling the man what to do and God is completely forsaken.
		And so when then in the curses, when God is cursing the ground and so forth and you will feel pain in motherhood and so forth, it's and you'll crawl on your belly the snake.
		It's a restoration of the right order again.
		But it seems like the clash between the city of God and the city of man is this clash between those who, like we were talking about earlier, rightly order our loves in accordance with God's economy of goods versus those who want to destroy that economy, invert it and so on.
		And I think another thing that fits into it as well, the violation of politically correct norms justifies hitting back.
		That's why you can have every city in the nation burn down in the summer 2020, but don't you dare, don't you dare break a window in the capital.
		The difference is one involved the supposed violation of politically correct norms, you know, a white cop killing a black man.
		That's the picture that people had back then.
		Whereas the other one, it's a bunch of MAGA faithful, MAGA, you know, Nazis trying to destroy our democracy.
		And bottom line, I remember just to wrap it up, I remember at the US Open, like in tennis, when was it?
		Like 2018 or so, when I think her name was Osaka beat Serena Williams.
		And Serena Williams had a meltdown in the championship on a court and she was verbally violent towards the empire, absolutely because he made a call she couldn't stand and she couldn't recover and she lost.
		And during the press conference afterward, she did not apologize., she justified herself.
		And she said, if I was a man, he would never have done that.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I remember this.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Do you remember that?
		If I was a man, he would never, and I'm standing up for women's rights.
		That press pool gave her a standing ovation.
		Billie Jean King tweeted out and said, You go girl, we're behind you 100%.
		Do you see, you violate politically correct norms, you are allowed to strike back.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So here's one of the reasons, and I've talked about this for a long time, that every time you get a revolutionary movement, every time you're going through a cultural revolution, and they're always Marxists, but even Proto Marxists.
		if it's the French Revolution, the inversion of the societal order requires an inversion of the moral order.
		But the problem with this is that you have...
		Right.
		You have religious faithful that are in your way.
		And so this becomes an issue for the revolutionary.
		It becomes an issue for the Marxists.
		It becomes an issue for the communists because they do believe in a higher power.
		That higher power, in this case, of course, being God, that is above the state, that is above whoever's in charge of the government, that is above the constitution as they've decided to twist it and add words to it and all the other stuff.
		And so this becomes exactly who they target because they know that the source of all of the status quo, which, and by the way, even if you read this manifesto, that's essentially what this freak is saying, is that the world is unjust.
		I have to undo it.
		I have to strike back against that injustice.
		And now we don't know, let me fact-check.
		You said you were arguing about that we're not sure whether or not he went to the school.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, we don't think he went to the school.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So we don't think he went there, but his mother worked there.
		His mother worked there.
		There was some kind of familiarity with the school, probably through the mom.
		And obviously when you read the manifesto, just not to get too much into the, you know, back and all that, but you can see there's this, there's a schematic of the layout of the church.
		There's a map, there's an understanding of the schedule, what we would call pattern of life of this school.
		So there's a very strong familiarity.
		And in fact, in other parts of the manifesto in some of these videos, he talks about going in and performing basic reconnaissance to find shooting angles, to find ways to, can I target the playground from the AutoZone parking lot and said and even writes this down.
		And by the way, had this, I'm going to say that right now, had this video not been uploaded to YouTube and found by the people on social media, we never would have seen it.
		It's absolutely buried.
		We never would have buried it in this.
		It's absolutely would have been buried.
		And that's not a knock on, you know, Cash, Dambongino or anybody.
		It's just, I think that the local politicians in Minnesota would have Tim Walls would have done everything they can to Stonewall giving it to the FBI.
		They would have just absolutely just shredded it or burned it or something.
		And so it talks about, yo, I'm going to go to the AutoZone and pretend that I'm working on my car, but actually, because you can do that at AutoZone.
		You can work on your car in the parking lot.
		They'll let you borrow tools.
		But actually be looking at the kids across the way.
		And I can make a joke about that, but I'm not going to because we're under YouTube guidelines.
		And somebody got it.
		That in this situation, this school is chosen probably because of the familiarity, but also because it's Christian.
		So they always target Christians first, they go for the young because they view that as something that they know they can sense that this is in their way.
		You see this in France, you see this in Spain, you see of course see this in Russia during the revolution there as well.
		In China, of course, there's the traditional religion, it's not Christian, but it's also targeted as well.
		The Confucian temples and Buddhist statues are destroyed.
		And so, and what do you see here in the United States?
		Places of worship, children who are involved in literal worship are going on.
		And at the same time, at the same time, what do we see these politicians attacking the process of religious worship starting, by the way, with the mayor of the city, Jacob Fry.
		And I waited all morning to see, do we have the clip?
		Do we have the actual clip of Jacob Fry?
		We should play this because I waited all like everyone we're waiting all morning to find out what was going on and then this is not the one.
		No, no, no, this is not the first one.
		I want to play the first one.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		And keep in mind, this is the guy that was kneeling at the gold draped coffin.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		I mean, of George Floyd and he's going to lecture us about prayer.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		What are the odds that it's the same guy, the same city, the same city?
		He's still the same mayor, the same Hennepin County that that lied about the George Floyd autopsy that changed the George Floyd autopsy after pressure from the FBI.
		The great Liz Collin, go follow all of her work, by the way.
		Yeah, this is the original one.
		And so everyone's waiting, the whole country and all around the world are waiting to find out what happened.
		And even before the chief of police gets up and explains what happened on the ground and the situation, this is what we hear from Mayor Jacob Fry.
jacob frey ▲ ● ▼		Those families are suffering immense pain right now.
		Think of this as if it were your own.
		Every one of us needs to be rapp wrapping our arms around these families, giving them every ounce that we can muster.
		These were Minneapolis families.
		These were American families.
		And the amount of pain that they are suffering right now is extraordinary.
		And don't just say this is about thoughts and prayers right now.
		These kids were literally praying.
		It was the first week of school.
		They were in a church.
		These are kids that should be learning with their friends.
		They should be able to go to school or church in peace without the fear or risk of violence and their parents should have the same kind of assurance.
		These are the sort of basic assurances that every Okay, so stop.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Also this is going to pivot to guns.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		He immediately not only does he immediately politicize it, but he attacks Catholic families for praying and mocks.
		This is mocking.
		This is absolute mockery.
		Doctor Charlie, is this mockery?
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		I would say that's mocking.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Scoffing and mocking.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Scoffing and mocking.
		Don't just say this is about thoughts and prayers.
		Where is this coming from?
		People are looking for comfort.
		There are children's bodies with the blood wet.
		The church has yet to be cleaned of the blood of children.
		And he's already rebuking, mocking and rebuking.
		This is a guy who hates Christians.
		It's so obvious to me that this is a guy who hates Christians and specifically the Christian God.
		You notice, by the way, atheists always target the Christian God.
		Norm McDonald talked about this.
		It's always the Christian God that gets the targeting.
		And we've seen this refrain now repeated again and again by Democrats all across the media.
		We saw Jen Psaki has.
		Ricky has a tweet up as well where we got to hear prayer is not freaking enough.
		Prayers do not end.
		Prayers do not end school shootings.
		Prayers do not make parents feel safe sending their children to school.
		Prayers do not bring these children back.
		Enough with the thoughts and prayers.
		It was amazing because it's just guns.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		It's just guns.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Because people have said, let's arm the let's put armed security in schools and make it so these children can feel safe going to school.
unidentified		And say, no, no, children will not be able to learn if we push.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		She had another tweet where she was talking about, you know, having National Guard put mulch around DC.
		That's not effective.
		And I quoted that because I was like., are you saying that we should have National Guard at schools and churches?
		Because like, on board.
		Totally on board.
unidentified		When we're doing that, you're actually kind of making the argument.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Making the argument why we should have the National Guard.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		It used to be the NYPD at my house.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Which President Trump is trying to send to the cities for this express reason.
		This is something.
		So I interviewed Liz Collin earlier on Human Rights Daily.
		And it was a bombshell interview from Alpha News.
		She mentioned, by the way, that she used to send her kid to this school years in the past.
		So she's very familiar.
		Then they moved and they're in a different area now.
		And she said that since George Floyd and Derek Chauvin have happened, this is probably the biggest news other than this story, but that may have led to this.
		So in 2020, start of 2020, trying to get the numbers right here.
		And again, this is her report.
		So go check with AlphaNews on this that at the start of the year of 2020, Minneapolis had 900 active duty police officers.
unidentified		Oh, wow.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		They are now down to 350.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Well, this was a city, this was the city of George Floyd where George Floyd died in police custody in May 2020.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		And that the mayor, Jacob Frey, who was the mayor then, he got down on his knees and he wept at the site of George Floyd's casket.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		He'll pray to George.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		He'll play to, he'll pray to George Floyd.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Which is prayer because that's his religion.
unidentified		Right.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		His religion is golden calf, literally.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		And then there was a big protest, you know, for George Floyd in Minneapolis.
		He got down with BLM and he was on his knees in the square.
		He encouraged them to take the status.
		He participated in riots.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, he participated in riots and until the point where they threw him out.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, and he was trying to remember that.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Defunding the police.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		I was there.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		I'm from Minnesota.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		I was there in 2020.
		Okay.
		And that was at a time when politicians on the federal level with Kamala Harris was putting bail reform stuff in their profiles, which, you know, like Minnesota bail is you take advantage of the well meaning people who think that she's painting a picture in your mind that fascist cops are going around and just arresting people or holding up signs.
		You and I understand that that is not true, that these people were committing violent acts.
		There was billions of dollars of damage done.
		But the narrative that's painted in the minds of the people who don't, you know, bless their souls, they don't take the time to think about the stuff they've got kids, they've got families, they've got a life to live and they're living under this illusion that politicians are well meaning and that the media is well meaning and they wouldn't lie to you.
		No, they want to bail out criminals because they want those acts to continue.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And in fact, she posted the link and was raising money for, I think they called it the Minnesota Freedom Fund or the Minneapolis Freedom Fund that went to the bail.
		So no, I'm sorry.
		It's it's they're saying your response to this is to attack prayer.
		Your response to this is to attack prayer.
		So what they're saying is, and the reason that they have to do this is to say is they are siding with the shooter.
		They're undersaying.
		I understand why the shooter did this because we hate Christianity too.
		We're probably just not quite as radical as you are with it, but you're not wrong for hating Christianity.
		You're just wrong for, you know, doing so a little bit too over the line.
		We're not ready to quite to.
		to start purging the Christians now.
		But mark my words, every single time one of these organizations, one of these revolutions is let to go to its ultimate end, it always ends with dead Christians and dead Christian children.
		All I got to say to you, Mr. Mayor, is God will not be mocked.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		And even beyond that, like if you think about what it was like when.
		The Columbine in the 90s and it was about nihilism and despair with teenagers, right?
		What that formed into as far as media framing was white male rage that are guns.
		And so this forces them to pivot immediately to guns because they don't want to have a discussion about whether about whether identity played a role in something like this.
		You could still have the discussion about depression and antidepressants and SSRIs, all these things that were in the manifesto that were talked about, talking about being depressed.
		But that's a very hard discussion because it's sitting right next to the issue with the fact that this individual is trans and they don't want to have the discussion.
		And that's what I hate the most about media and politics is from the moment that that that he started talking, it was immediately to the guns.
		That's immediately where they're going to go.
		There was mocking of Christians in there for sure.
		But what I see right there is immediately pushing you to your prayers are not enough because we have something we need to stop.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		But understand that we've gotten to a point in this country where Christians, and specifically white Christians, and this school was, was, vast majority white, if you look at any of the pictures coming out.
		And so it's, it's been so derided as sort of the Kulak class of America, this is the backbone of the middle class, et cetera, that in every revolution you must have a demon.
		And so their demon is white Christians.
		And so it creates a problem for the left when they have to sort of pretend like they care about white Christians for a day or two.
		But even in that moment, for a minute.
		He couldn't even hold it for a minute.
		He couldn't even hold it for a minute to say like, and he still has this knee jerk response to attack prayer and at a Catholic church, again, as the blood is still wet on the children's bodies, he has to mock them.
		And we live in a society now where there's he will not be shamed, he'll probably be supported.
		And then you have Jen Psaki doing the same thing, and I believe Michael Steele, former actually at one point, you know, at one point RNC got RNC chair, but you know, he's effectively been a liberal for years at this point at this point.
		And he was saying the same thing up on MSNBC.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, you know, you're bringing up brilliantly.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Just to finish this off, name any other religion you could do that about.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		If this was a synagogue, if this was a mosque, would you hear anyone say saying that kind of thing?
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Because it doesn't absolutely fit into the cultural Marxist line area of oppressor versus oppressed.
		And this is the brilliance, I think, of what you're talking about, because you're pointing out their bait and switch.
		So you know, if this were a white person going in, right?
		If the cultural Marxist identity structures were affirmed today, they wouldn't be talking about if he walked into a black church and did this, especially if it's a man, right?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Dylan Roof, we know this has happened.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		So, and what do they do?
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		They don't side with the white person.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		What do they do?
		They immediately make it all about identity, immediately, and then and they and they generalize the identity that the shooter and the victims were microcosms of this larger oppression and this larger war that's happening in our country.
		But if you don't have the right identity boxes checked in this situation like that, there's a bait and switch.
		Well, we can't draw conclusions about individuality.
		This was an individual, I mean, a Muslim thought, oh, Islam is a religion of peace.
		We don't, we don't, we don't want to be Islamofobic.
		And so where do they go?
		They still have to go with some kind of progressive, realistic paradigm.
		So they go to the guns.
		You got the guns.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And it's funny that you mention that because, and, and, sir, you have the other clip of Mayor Fry, right?
		So from he holds another press conference later in the day and I know post-millennial has, yeah, there it is right there.
		Later in the day and what does he say?
jacob frey ▲ ● ▼		All of us.
		And I have heard about a whole lot of hate that's being directed at our trans community.
		Anybody who is using this as an opportunity to villainize our trans community or any other community out there has lost their sense of common humanity.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		That's the script.
jacob frey ▲ ● ▼		We should not be operating outating from a place of hate for anyone.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So listen to what he said.
jacob frey ▲ ● ▼		We should be operating from a place of love for our kids.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		I think he said the same thing on J six, didn't he?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I think so.
		So listen to how animated he gets.
		Suddenly when it's the trans community, how dare you How dare you say anything about our beloved trans community?
		Don't you dare spread hate when he himself participated in spreading hate against Christian children who were killed just, you know, I think hours before this happened.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Or the systemically racist police department of Minneapolis.
		And how dare they what they did to this poor George Floyd and so forth.
		He has no problem scapegoat an entire country.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Where's that energy?
		Where's exactly.
		The kids.
		Where's that?
		Where's that energy?
		the LBGT stuff that has really been pushed to the back burner by a lot of Democrats that want to, you know, that want to kind of catch the middle back and bring the middle back because the left's further left proclivities or whatever, they're very unpopular with the American people, especially like trans stuff, it's been rejected pretty handily.
		And the fact that he's actually kind of jumping back into that leftist, very progressive kind of talking point and also the eighty twenty doom loop.
		Yeah, exactly, like taking up the twenty side of an eighty twenty issue.
		I'm a little on the I'm a little surprised he has to though.ough?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		But he has to whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa in his in his party he has to because just like Pete Buttigieg, what is he?
		This is a white man.
		So as a white man in this party, he doesn't have any of the victim identity.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		He's always you but Gavin Newsom doesn't do that.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		No, Gavin Newsom.
		Gavin Newsom kind of hedges his bets, right?
		And if you look at the DNC annual meeting that they have this week in Minnesota, you will hear what's his name?
		Keith Ellison from Minnesota, the Attorney General from Minnesota, talking about how great it is that so many Democrat-led states are suing the Trump administration over child sex changes.
		Now, they're not opposed to the child sex changes.
		They want more.
		They want more child sex changes.
		And everybody cheered for Mr. Ellison as he was standing there doing it.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Those are the committed activists.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Those are the committed activists.
		But this is also, these are the leaders of the party, right?
		They don't have any leaders.
		Kamala Harris said that she's going on a listening tour because she wants to be an outsider politician.
		Gavin Newsom is the closest thing that they have to a leader.
		And he won't condemn child sex changes.
		Then you have Tish James.
		You have Ellison.
		You have Tim Waltz.
		You have Polis in Colorado.
		You have all of these people in favor of the stupid idiotic thing that results in horrors for everybody.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		So pull back.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		And that's the Democratic Party.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		So it's on the fringe, but I say that's the center of the problem.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		So that's what I want to ask you.
		It seems like, or it had seemed like, this was getting pushed to the side because it is unpopular with the American people.
		Do you get the feeling that the overall Democratic Party is actually going to continue to push the progressive stuff?
		And the reason, and the reason I ask is because this is a loser for them.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		It is a loser for them, but they, here's something that they hate even more than white men and Christianity.
		They hate the American people, right?
		The Democratic Party hates Americans.
		They hang out in LA and New York and all these beautiful cities that have terrible crime rates that really should not have terrible crime rates because they're great cities.
		But they hang out there and they look at everyone else and they say, These people are uneducated and they're stupid and racist and homophobic.
		Knuckle draggers.
		Anti-trans, they're knuckle draggers, they're out there eating squirrels and we hate them.
		And so we have to drag them on the right side of history and get them to do things our way because that's all we can do.
		And that's what the Democrats think of all of us.
		Remember, when they attack Trump, right?
		They say they hate Trump.
		They say res hate Trump supporters.
		They think we're all, you know, white supremacists, racists, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobes who hate everyone.
		And so they hate all of us.
		That's what they think of us.
		And so they're maybe they will couch their opinions for a little bit, maybe they'll say, like, oh, you know, mister Lucy shouldn't play girls volleyball.
		But that's only going to be until they get some power back and then they're going to push it down our throats again.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		For Gavin Newsom also, it's because I think he has national ambitions and for a blue state democrat that's solidly blue, he doesn't need to do that if he's not planning to go past the state level.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I mean, I think you're probably right, but I do think, and look, this is just because I'm looking at the polls and I look at the way that people have reacted to the Democratic Party, and it would be my gut instinct if I were in his shoes to not jump back on to the twenty of an eighty twenty issue.
		And the Democrats overall, more broadly, they should do that.
		I think Luby's got a great point.
		Democrats do hate America.
		They hate the American post-americanism.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		And they really hate Renee Smith for twenty years.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		That's what they need.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		They really think of themselves as global citizens.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		They want that.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		That's why you see a bass out the mayor bass always on the side because they would rather have post-americans as their constituents than actual Americans.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		And that's why they don't actually want to change policies.
		Right.
		In order to win votes.
		Right.
		They want to change the law in order to retain power.
		It's not about representing people.
		It's about stealing power.
		That's why they talk about expanding the states.
		That's why they talk about getting rid of the I can believe the court.
		Getting rid of the filibuster.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, get rid of even getting rid of the Senate, I heard.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		Yeah.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Getting rid of the Senate.
unidentified		It's not about that.
unidentified		Yeah.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		They go that way.
unidentified		way.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		They want direct democracy.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		They want to get rid of the Electoral College.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		These are all ways to change the constitution.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Any law passed before 1964 Civil Rights Act is null and void because it was an apartheid state.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		These are all ways that they want to actually retain power in total defiance of the will of the American people.
		The American people do not find these policies popular at all.
		They don't care to adjust their message to represent the people.
		What they want to do is they want to control what the people think and what the people actually do.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I just want to throw out real quick here that maybe I offer something a little bit more positive because we just got, and I know a little early for the super chats, but I was late yesterday.
		But we just got one in here from Roberto saying that in keeping up with tradition, I'm super chatting from the labor recovery room, welcoming my first child into the world.
		Robbie, hello to baby Sophia.
		Not replacement rate yet, step one closer.
		So congratulations, one.
		Population of patriots has increased by one.
unidentified		That's excellent.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Welcome, Sophia.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Welcome to the fight.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		That's awesome.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Welcome.
		That's great.
		We've had that's the second one this week, actually.
		That's so great.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		We had a couple in PCC as well.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		That's amazing.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So, you know, we're talking, you know, you just said illegals, but, you know, God's.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Oh, absolutely.
		And religious conservatism is the number one indicator for reproductive trends.
		So one of the coolest things that we are seeing among red states, one of the reasons why the political power is shifting to the red, what are they talking about?
		A 14-point swing by 2030.
		It will be sooner if we get a census before then that doesn't include illegals.
		But we got a 14-point electoral swing to red states, not just because of left UGs who have left California and so forth, but also because religionious conservatives are having more children than ever while secular liberals have largely stopped having children.
		Well, not just stopped having children, but are also Yeah, literally, yeah, the other way around, exactly.
		So that's one of the most beautiful things.
		Eric Kaufman, University of London scholar, wrote a book in 2013 called The Religious Shall Inherit the Earth.
		You guys will love those.
		He predicted because of these trends that by 2030 the cultural wars would shift dramatically to the right.
		By 2030 the cultural wars will shift dramatically to the right.
		If you look at 2013.
		And just by the, he's a demographer.
		And what year do we expect to see the right ascend as the major electoral power?
		2030.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		If you look at Gen Z, they're strong, like Gen Z young men are very strongly to the right.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Oh yeah.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Well, this is fully drawn lines now.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but yeah, it is.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		But the only problem that I see with that, not that I'm saying that he's wrong, the only problem that I see with that is there are very few Gen Z compared to, you know, the larger, like it's just a small number of people.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I think that's because so many of them were aborted.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Well, yeah.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		I mean, that's weird is Gen X was already really small.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, Gen X was small.
		But what is neat with Gen Z, the new generation, is the new generation.
		The New York Post had a really good article on this that for the first time that they can remember sociologists found that men were more religious than women.
		Did you guys see this?
		This was just a few weeks ago.
		In sociology, women being more religious than men in terms of identifying as religious, that's almost like a rule, an axiom of sociology.
		For the first time, they now see men, more men, and it was a large number, if I recall, it was even double digits or so, thirteen percent or so majority of men saying, yeah, I'm religious.
		They're calling it the Jordan Peterson phenomenon.
		You want to talk about God writing straight lines with a crooked stick.
		He used a secular Canadian psychologist to bring all these men to church.
		And we've talked about this, Jack.
		And they're not just going to happy clappy churches, they're going to really hardcore traditionalist churches.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I think too that you're starting to see this generation that, and when you talk about Gen Z, you could also bifurcate it into the really just the eighteen to twenty two s currently.
		So the younger end of Gen Z is even far more to the right than all of Gen Z, and particularly the men, because why was this?
		This was the COVID generation.
		Yes who not figuratively, literally had years of their childhood, two, two and a half years of their childhood, their absolute most precious formative years, just completely stripped from them.
		And they saw the government do that.
		They saw what happened.
		They saw that all of the institutions failed, completely failed.
		Meanwhile, what was happening in the streets and here we are again, Minneapolis, right, starting in Minneapolis, the burning of the streets, the attack on the third precinct that spread across the entire country.
		Meanwhile, they were told they had to shelter in place and take an experimental drink that, you know, I don't know what the line is on that these days, but an experimental or you can't get to college.
		An experimental, right?
		If you wanted to participate in society.
		Right.
		And so they're mad.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And they want revenge.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		I mean, it's not just right-wing politics either though.
		They feel like they've been sold a lie in the country in a lot of ways.
		College has now vastly been proven for a lot of them, unless you're going to be a doctor, something that requires accreditation, that it's a debt trap that's going to keep you in prison for years.
		And women are graduating colleges at higher rates.
		Obviously, like you said, it seems to be be that there's more atheism showing up around college, around women, because in many ways the university has become their god or social justice has become their god.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Women, yeah, they've become more liberal.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		I do think for Gen Z, I worry more than some people, I think that they're going to turn to a communist state eventually because the financial problems that they're facing are so great and so vast and it seems so hard to look with housing rates, what they are, interest rates, they don't see a path forward and what they're just waiting for is a charismatic person from the other side of the aisle.
		You know what Bernie Sanders would have been in 2016 with a populist message saying, I'm here.
		She's saying, I'm here to help.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		This is why someone like, and I know there are a lot of people out there that hate when I say this, but this is why someone like AOC is such a dangerous politician.
		She has very far left impulses and she's very charismatic.
		She gets a ton of people on her.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		She's a very talented politician.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, exactly.
		She's a very talented politician.
		She's very charismatic.
		She's really good at connecting with her, with her, her followers or connecting with people.
		And whether you like, I don't like any of her policies.
		I don't think.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, you're being descriptive, you know, but like, I was on board for, like, stopping politicians from being able to trade stocks.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		I was on board with that.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I mean, look, so there, you know, I mean, a broken clock's right twice.
		The fact of the matter is, like, someone like that can't, that's why I, that's why I harp on the economy all the time.
		If the economy is bad, come 2028, someone like AOC can get into office because the voting public is going to be like, well, the conservatives didn't do it.
		Right.
		The MAGA people didn't do it.
		I don't feel any better.
		And it really makes that will make for a serious problem for the United States because that means more money printing.
		That means more devaluation of the currency.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Good.
		that this is the two sides of Gen Z, right?
		So Gen Z has no middle from what we're seeing in the data.
		It's either you're all the way like super pro Trump or even beyond that where you're saying Trump is not going hard enough, like he's not deporting enough, he's not locking up enough, he's not sending enough troops out there.
		And that's one side.
		The other side is Luigi Maggiore.
		The other side is this, this trans shooter saying I want to burn it all down.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		I mean, that's a bet, that's an even better example.
		I wish I would have thought of that that earlier talking about when they feel like they can do the most horrific things and find their own justification for it.
		You know, this guy who's a CEO who under our laws has not committed any crimes and there were millions of people justifying those actions.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Was it Taylor Lorenz?
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		I don't want to I don't want to describe the person.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, no, she was.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		She was the one who said I just feel joy.
		Piers Morgan was like he was shocked that someone would be that open about it.
		But again, there you go.
		I mean, if you violate politically correct norms, you get excommunicated.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Well, and all of this, all of this comes back on the heels of the fact that our.
		And this is going to sound like a leftist kind of thing to say, but The one percent in this country, the elite in this country are doing so well right now and they're so divorced from where the working class is.
		They're so divorced from the pressures that the middle class is facing, particularly from the migrant crisis as well as just every institution, everything that's supposed to be working in society feels like it's falling apart.
		And meanwhile you can go online and it's like, oh, here's another mega billionaire getting married.
		I'm not going to say it.
		But, you know, and here's this, you know, here's this thing going on.
		Meanwhile, I can't afford rent or, or, you know, you get a toothache.
		and you go to see a specialist and the insurance is out for the year and now, oh, that's two grand out of pocket.
		Well, you're just going to go back to work because you can't afford to get the work done.
		And suddenly, you know, you might get to the point where you say, you know what, maybe I do want to burn it all down.
		Right.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
		I don't think that's even a leftist idea.
		I think that they just, they come down on opposite sides of how to fix it.
		And many times they see it as a capitalist system that's failed, that's failed to live up to what it's been said to be, whereas the right sees it as a problem of regulation and that the system has been created through loopholes and cronyism to give them a step over all of the regular person.
		Like when you look at like who's invested in the market, it's like what high 90s percent, it's people that are in the top 10 percent of the income bracket and very few people that are living either paycheck to paycheck or their family has a modest savings are really able to invest in the market in any way that's going to meaningfully change their financial future.
		And it's just more an issue of like where you believe the problem comes and that just depends on where you get your news in a lot of ways.
		Like the person who's telling you that Jeff Bezos is the problem, that depends on whether you believe that it's a net positive for society to create a whole bunch of jobs and give you the option of receiving almost any product in the world at your house in two days.
		And do you see that as a benefit to our society or do you see it as something that it's just people lining the pockets of someone who's worth billions of dollars?
		And that's, I think that speaks more to their work.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Actually, and someone just mentioned this in the chat, I totally missed this earlier and Libby, we should definitely write this up.
		In one screenshot of the manifesto, there are Luigi stickers.
		Oh, is that right?
		Over all over the manifesto.
		So it's, it's, and there are no Mario stickers there.
		It's all Luigi sticker.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Because there's a Luigi musical on San Francisco.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So there you go.
		So Luigi is it's look, you get and so this is the difference, right?
		You get Luigi or you get MAGA.
jacob frey ▲ ● ▼		Right.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		And Bill Burr co signing what Luigi did.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Bill Burr said it was great.
		So when we published the book Unhumans last year, this is what we talked about.
		We said the situation has gotten to the point where either we're going to have a populist solution to it, whereby in, you know, we don't and on the MAGA side, we don't demonize people for being successful.
		We don't, in fact, we champion people for being successful as long as they do so in a, shall we say, non parasitic, non cheating cronyist kind of conversation.
		A macro-frontiest kind of way.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Aristopopulism.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I like that.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's a nice.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I think that's Patrick Denin's.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And so, oh yeah, Denin's good.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I'm going to see him next week at NatCon.
unidentified		Oh cool.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, doing a NatCon awesome.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And so what we want is to take the floor from where it is and raise it up.
		Yes, so raise the floor up for everybody.
		Yeah.
		But what the communists want is to tear it down.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Rick by absolute brick.
		And specific, and here's what's here's what's so interesting.
		And you see this again and again in these studies that we did, these case studies.
		They don't go, they don't actually go after the super wealth off middle class.
		So just like in the French Revolution.
		So for example, they don't they're not targeting like the super rich billionaires.
		They're not targeting the super rich even of the elites.
		But what they might do is say, Oh, I don't know if you can afford to send your kids to a private religious school.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Right, but they didn't shoot up, you know, whatever the boarding school is out there.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Do you think part of the reason why that is, is because when you're dealing with people that are billionaires, like actual billionaires, they're so disconnected and cut off and isolated from the rest of society.
		Whereas if you're dealing with someone that's like a millionaire, that's like the CEO of United Healthcare, he was like he was worth something like 44 million dollars, which is a lot of money, but that is a world of difference between billionaires, right?
		Is it, do you think that it's just an access thing?
		The people that are worth, you know, $10, $20 million, they're actually walking among us, whereas people that are worth billions and billions of dollars, like they don't actually mingle with average people.
		Do you think that's a difference?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yes and no, but what's interesting though is that you see these patterns echo for the, for the, for the last 250 years, we've seen this pattern play out again and again and again, and it is typically the scion of those same families.
		So it's typically upper middle class individuals that turn to this level of radicalism.
		Luigi Maggioni's family, very, very wealthy.
		In this case, you know, we mentioned before that this, you know, it looks like obviously, you know, these surgeries or these hormone replacement therapy, it's very, it's very expensive to get into.
		And yet it looks like this person was going through them, had a family that, you know, worked at the school, was involved with the school in this, this private education world.
		So again, like they were well off.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Speaking of the family, we haven't touched on this, but has anyone heard about a father?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		We know that the mother signed off.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		So there were some people going in and finding tweets or Facebook posts from the dad where he was celebrating his daughter.
		celebrating his daughter's birthday, cosigning the mental illness, and even also they found some posts from the dad celebrating the conviction of Derek Chauvin.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		We have a striking Yeah, yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And I don't mean saying, you know, I don't mean like saying, I don't have these exact posts in front of me, but it wasn't saying like, Oh, justice has been done and this was good that, you know, that it happened.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		It was cheering.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Adulation to celebrate.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Burn the witch.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Burn the witch.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		So, yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		You know, and I'm trying to be cognant at the time and we could go off on all this in every direction.
		But one thing that I do want to get into is there is this tensionion, right, that has come up.
		And so, okay, thoughts and prayers, you know, oh, thoughts and prayers, et cetera, et cetera.
		I mean, that's not the purpose of thoughts and prayers, right?
		Which, which, by the way, to your point, conservative religion is, is, is far more religious.
		They're also more, the, more likely to be the gun owners and those to, uh, to understand that you need to take physical steps to protect your property and your family and your children.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Was it the range myself today?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		There you go.
unidentified		There you go.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		That's a simple skill, man.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		They're creating, they're creating helplessness.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		That's the whole point.
		So, this is what we should talk about though, is there a school safety issue in this country yeah and you know there there is a tension between where we are as a country and where certainly we have a problem with school shooters and it's it's it's it's silly to to claim that we don't um scandinavia they have a problem with school stabbers they certainly do and so and so and even then like i don't want to i don't want to you know go and talk about some other country we live here so
		what do we do And I think clearly for religious school, this is something that I've brought up before when it comes to religious schools, set up programs and there should be 501C3s set up religious non- nonprofit setup where you take, you know, former law enforcement, former veterans, and you just set it up so that each school can have someone that is armed, that is security, that is there, that's able to be, able to be around in case of a situation like this.
		It's, I hate that we have to talk that way, but I want my kids to be safe.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		There was a vote on my local ballot last year about finding more money to put resource officers, AKA cops, security in schools, and that passed pretty, pretty overwhelmingly.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		And now there's cops in schools.
unidentified		Yeah.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		That's Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
		I mean, bottom line safety and security is second only to food, air and water, right?
		So what do you have?
		Five levels of needs.
		The first one is breathing, eating, and so forth.
		But then the second one is shelter, it's safety, it's security.
		I just think what Trump is doing in DC, and you're seeing it firsthand, and what he's promising to do in Chicago and Baltimore and so on is brilliant.
		Because I mean, look at how it worked out for Nayib Bukele of El Salvador.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		You know what Bukele, all the cities.
unidentified		Yeah.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		You're being, I would turn it into a verb, turn it into a we Bukele at all the cities and then he goes for reelection and wins with 85% of the vote.
		The claim that this is somehow unconstitutional or we're losing our freedoms and so forth just ends up falling into dust when you can't trust whether or not you let your kids off at school in the morning, are they going to be safe?
		That's a prison.
		Or you can't go outside at night after 8 p.m.
		That's a prison.
		So Bukele proved that if you meet Maslow's hierarchy of needs, particularly safety and security, like we were just talking kind of the socialism, that was the food and the water and the, you know, just basic material conditions, but right at, right on top of that is you've got to have safety and security.
		And if you don't have safety and security, you're not free.
		And if I think Trump has a real gold in his mind.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		I think the people who are making their, if you were a non-leftist, a non-partisan making an argument against Trump in this case, it would be because it's a states' rights issue, right?
		That they're saying that you're bringing in federal officers where it's something that should be left to the states because it's not your job.
		I got DC, right?
		DC is federal.
		It makes perfect sense to me.
		I did see the video of fat JB Pritzker, like, I'm on the waterfront at six AM, like criminals aren't out at six AM.
		I'm sorry.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		There are.
		Did you see the Pritzker video where he was like Trump lives in a city?
		Trump should come out here and see what we're doing.
		And he was like literally next to Trump.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Don't you want Trump international politics?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		No, wait, where are all the Democrats now saying the cities are safe, by the way?
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Right, right.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Where are all the Democrats?
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Well, they're still safe.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Well, they're telling us not to pray because there was a horrible, horrible attack.
unidentified		But I think Andrew, well, here's what they don't want us to pray.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Right.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		They don't want us to bring in law enforcement.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Right.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		They don't want us to put curfew on young people.
		They shut up and be a victim.
		That's what they want.
		Fill the gaps.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Shut up and be a victim.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		The thing is also is the argument is also to the contrary., that for someone who if you're living in Chicago, if you're living in Illinois, that they're not going to vote in politicians who will put in people in the law enforcement that will actually be able to uphold the law in a way that keeps people safe, and that this is a band-aid until the next administration comes in, and then it gets removed and things go right back to the way they were.
		And some people's argument may be that they need to feel the pressure to finally put someone into power that will do this at the state level so that the federal government doesn't get accused of encroaching where they don't have a right to be.
		I'm not saying that that's necessarily what I believe.
		I'm saying I understand that argument if you're worried about federal overreach.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Let me toss this out then as well to the mix because Libby, you probably have a better number than me, but this is how many times have we seen these mass shooters and they turn out to be trans?
		They turn out to be involved in some kind of either homer replacement therapy or the SSRIs and we have this mass mental illness problem going on and we claim it's a mass shooting problem, but actually there are these connections.
		Do we have an issue in this country where we've got millions of guns in this country and we also have millions of people on SSRIs and now more and more people on hormones.
		How do you balance this?
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I think it's a real problem.
		And yeah, we had Minneapolis, Nashville, Denver, Aberdeen, Philadelphia, Colorado Springs.
		Like a lot of people who are caught up in this gender cult have come out and started killing other people on moss, you know?
		And that's a real problem.
		How do you prevent something like that?
		Well, I think that there's far too much prescriptions of like psychiatric medication on young people.
		I think that's been going on since the nineties with Ritalin and Adderall and all the rest of it.
		I've seen devastating effects on, you know, friends and younger siblings and stuff with that kind of drugs.
		Then there's the SSRIs, which I don't know if anyone's ever taken though.
		Like I took those just for fun one time.
		Because my whatever.
		Anyway, I took whatever.
		And it was terrible.
		And I was like, gosh, how would you like it?
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		You wouldn't feel the effects till it has to build up in your system.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		No, it made my eyes bug out.
		And I couldn't, it was like very bad.
		But maybe I took too many.
		I don't know.
		But whatever.
		Yeah, I think that I think that those are pretty bad.
		You've seen the effects, you know, people get really like., like their personalities get washed out.
		I think the cross sex hormones are a really bad idea.
		RFK came out just today with a whole new thing about nutrition and putting proper nutrition education into premed programs in order to deal with preventive diseases.
		And I think there's a lot to be said for eating right and exercising and seeing friends, making friends, going to church and realizing that the individual self is not something to believe in, right?
		Like we hold ourselves up as these mini gods and in fact we should be looking outside of ourselves.
		We should be looking at God for meaning.
		We should be looking at the world.
		When you worship a God, so you worship God, so then you can worship yourself.
		Yeah, and you should never be worshiping yourself.
		Gender is not the soul.
		Your mental illness is not something to celebrate.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		But this topic is going to get turned to firearms and is going to talk.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		That's what I'm trying to ask.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, so, Phil, what are the laws on the books as far as being on prescription medications and owning firearms?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I don't know specifically what the I know you can't have like a weed card and when it comes, yeah, so if it's anything illegal, federally illegal, and you're the 4473, which is the form you have to fill out to actually acquire a firearm.
		It's it asks if you're on any kind of illicit drugs.
		I'm not sure what the legality is regarding things that are prescribed.
		So if someone's given a prescription for something like SSRIs or whatever, if you're if you're taking those and your doctor prescribes them, I don't know what the legality is about that.
		don't think that there's anything prohibiting that, at least on a federal level.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Which, by the way, Robert would have had to lie about to get these guns, because I think these were recent purchases.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So I don't know the exact time frame, but it seems as though he purchased these firearms possibly while working at a cannabis dispensary.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		So he lied on his 4473.
unidentified		Why?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		He's a felon.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		And the thing is with these topics is it always ends up being a Trojan horse to take your guns.
		They find a way to turn this into an issue where it's like, and I saw some people do this.
		They were, they're like, can we finally talk about the guns?
		Remember that one?
		You always hear that one when these things, when these topics happen.
		Can we finally talk about the guns?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		What do they mean when they say guns?
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		About the guns.
		Like, what do you want to talk about?
		But they're going to want to talk about going around and confiscating guns from everybody.
		Like, they're going to be effective.
		Do you think that's going to be effective?
		Do you think people are going to give up their guns in the United States?
		It's not going to happen.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		They think that this kid wouldn't have done that.
		This guy wouldn't have done that.
		He would have, like you said, he would have stabbed the kids if this was in another country.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So here's the question though is, and I'm trying to open this up a little bit.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And so I guess it's what if you So you're talking about, okay, so marijuana is still on the form.
unidentified		Yes.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		What if you added that, what if you added what type of prescription drugs are you on?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And to that form as well.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		The problem with that, the people that are against it are going to say that's a violation of their privacy.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		And like their HIPAA.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, the HIPAA laws and stuff like that.
		They're going to say, look, you can't ask that because this is something that's private between me and my doctor.
		So it and whether or not.
		people are pro or against this, there's also the argument that would come up saying they keep killing people.
		I mean, look, if you use that argument, they're going to say, well, then just get rid of the guns.
		That's what the argument will be.
		The guns are killing people.
		It's not the drugs, it's the guns.
		Try to save the rise or help people.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		He was depressed.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		He needed people better.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		He was depressed.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		And I'm against, obviously, I'm only telling you what the arguments are going to be.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah, no.
		And I'm forcing the argument because I think it's an argument which, whose time has come, right?
		We can't be a country that has both of these things of mass medication, mass medication.
		Mass psychological and psychiatric medication that so many people are on, which by the way, and the way we deal with mental health in this country is such a joke.
		Now, I think the original way around this, around this trap was much simpler.
		And in if you go back, and I was digging into this part before the show, and the history of this country is very simple that under the madhouse laws of English common law, if you and if you go back to Blackstone and all the rest of this, it was very simple.
		If you were a lunatic, you got thrown in the asylum.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Right.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And there was no question about, and actually, prior to asylums, you were thrown in prisons.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And in fact, Benjamin Rush, who, the Founding Father adjacent, I suppose you could say he was basically the doctor of the founding fathers, Philadelphia area, by the way.
unidentified		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Oh yeah, Philly, that he was one of the first people to start pushing for psychiatric hospitals and saying we shouldn't just lock the lunatic up in jail anymore.
		And one of the first psychiatric hospitals was they had they were keeping lunatics chained in the basement of a public hospital and then opened that up to a psychiatric wing of a hospital.
		So I guess my point being is that if we went back to treating mental illness by first separating them from society rather than giving them a prescription and then putting them back into Gen Pop, we could at least get to a place where we don't have to worry about the, the, you know, liberty being infringed of going and taking away somebody's guns.
unidentified		Yeah.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		So it's all Ronald Reagan's fault, is what you're saying.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		It's the shutting down of the islands.
unidentified		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I mean, that's a hard one for a lot of the Democrats who were involved in that.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Because, um, and Hollywood too with Jack Nicholson and one flu or the Cougar's Nest.
unidentified		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And Roger as well.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		So much of what we see today as society has been streamlined in a way that just like most people can find a way to live in adulthood on their own without, you know, needing necessary assistance because they can take medication and all these things and you can't backtrack society away from that.
		And locking them up is going to prove harder to do now because they'll find a way around it in the DSM.
		I imagine that there's all sorts of way around it.
		They're properly medicated, they've been reintroduced into society, there's no reason for us to lock them up again.
		And we see like these days, there's a stigma against the asylums.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		And not that I'm making the argument, the argument always comes up.
		If you allow the federal government or the state to involuntarily commit people.
		people, then there's the possibility that the state starts saying that people that just have your opinion are are insane.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		We do have those laws.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Well, but hold on.
		What do you like?
		So this, so we were talking about how Christians are basically under attack by leftists, right?
		What happens when a leftist, and again, this isn't something, this is the argument, I'm not actually for this, right?
		But the argument that you hear is what happens when a far left government gets in control and they start saying, if you believe in God, you're crazy?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Well, we already have involuntary commitment laws, though.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I think in pretty much every state.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Do we?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Involuntary?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I don't know about that.
		And the reason I say that is because a lot, so many of the homeless people that are on the street are on the street because they have a mental illness often mixed with a drug addiction.
		And that's the real reason.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		In New York it's 5150.
		In Pennsylvania it's, I think, 302 is something.
		It's involuntary commitment.
		And you can be put on side cold, which is a form of involuntary commitment.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		What I'm talking about is not just like, okay, are they in because I think what you're talking about is, are you an immediate danger?
		But I'm talking about if you're mentally ill with a chronic mental illness.
		I don't think that the state can commit you.
		They can take you off the streets, make you, make sure that you're not a danger to yourself, an immediate danger to yourself or a danger to yourself.
		or danger to the people around you, but they can't hold you, they can't commit you indefinitely, which is what we're, what is kind of on the table here.
		And I'm looking to see.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Well, and what I'm, what I'm saying though is that you, you, I mean, I'm arguing for a change to law, obviously.
		And I'm arguing that, I mean, to, you know, and I want, I want to get Dr. Trillian on this as well, because, I mean, this is becoming a public health issue.
		And it's, you know, now you're talking about, and this is, this is a different.
		So, okay, right, you know, I don't want to, you can't violate HIPAA.
		All right, but what, what happens when it becomes a public safety issue?
		Because now here's somebody who's on these HRTs, then what?
		And on cannabis, by the way, then walks over to the gun shop and says, hey, I want to buy some guns.
		And the gun owner doesn't have to ask because none of these systems talk to each other.
		And is writing things like this up and down.
		And I'm sorry, it just seems that there should be a public policy response to all this.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I'm actually fascinated by this.
		I'm sitting back and going, wow, this is great.
		This is me.
		I have to make a video on this sometime, do some research on it.
		I do think it's a, I do, if politics, to the point of, wait, but if we do it this way, if the leftists get into power, then they can, they can start imprisoning Christi Christians like they've done in the Soviet Union and so on.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I mean, like they were doing the last four years.
unidentified		Exactly.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Or J six, you know, exactly.
		If politics is downstream from culture, then this, this is it.
		I don't know if there's going to be a simple, you know, technical solution to this.
		It looks like it's going to be a cultural solution.
		One of the things I was thinking about is, for example, I forgot who it was, a theologian who pointed out, you know, two hundred years ago, if a person was depressed, they would go to church to pray.
		Today, they go to the mall to shop.
		And there's there's something about being able to buy your happiness.
		There's something about being able, uh, through some kind of fix, uh, to, to resolve whatever tensions and issues you have that seems to be very much at the heart of a modern sense of life.
		Modernity tends to be rooted in technology and technology by its nature is control.
		And so, um, so we tend to look for technological solutions to what are often very spiritual, very deep and very moral problems.
		So this again, kind of goes full circle to what you were saying earlier.
		This is why kind of like, this is why I love the way how Maha and Maga have been kind of hooked up together.
		We can't really save the country until we first, in a sense, and I use this in a thoroughly conservative sense, until we save ourselves, as it were, until we take our spiritual life seriously, our relational lives seriously, our physical lives seriously,
		our financial lives seriously, our professional lives seriously, until we start taking control by the grace of God of our own health.
		No pills.
		No techniques are going to solve it.
		Now, if that catches fire, I think there's something to this.
		I think we can then find the political downstream of how we handle this.
		But until we get that full sort of faith family and freedom vibe, absolutely pushing the radical left to the twenty percent in terms of their power, not just in terms of their popularity.
		Until then, yeah, it's a it's a it's a risky thing because when they get into power, they're going to use it in their own.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Okay, I think if we can use power, we can.
		Yeah, I'm just.
		Before we push back out this, there was a piece that I really wanted to hit today, where which I think speaks to all of this.
		This was known.
		This was a known threat.
		Right.
		And here are the facts dailywired dot com dot The great Mary Margaret Olahan has the story up.
		Minnesota Catholic School Leader warned Tim Waltz of critical school safety threats.
		He did nothing.
		And this was in a letter two years before all of this.
		So back when the Tennessee Christian School, the Nashville shooting took place, there was a letter that was written to Governor Tim Walls asking for extra funding for and pointing out to a lack of security at Christian and religious schools because they were considered non-public schools.
		Right.
		And so public schools were getting ample security, but these non-public schools were not getting the same level of security.
		So he points out that in the letter there were 72,000 students in independent Catholic, Jewish, Christian and Muslim non-public schools within the state of Minnesota saying our schools are under attack, particularly even at the time Jewish and Muslim schools, but we're writing about the Christian schools as well experience increased levels of threats.
		We need to take this very seriously.
		We need to ensure all our schools have these resources.
		And they were begging Tim Walls for this money.
		Instead, Tim Walls was working to protect transgenders and signed legislation establishing Minnesota as a trans refuge.
		So look, they had the money.
		And that's where they sent the money.
		They knew that there was a lack of security.
		And potentially even this shooter knew that there was a lack of security because what did the shooter say that he was doing was conducting this reconnaissance prior to.
		conducting the attack and noting that there was this lack of security, which presumably these public schools would not have had.
unidentified		Right.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Right.
		I mean, another thing that's I think that's I we could take solace in is since the 2020 Summer of Love, gun controls at its lowest level of support it's been like in decades.
		And then, and that's just the aggregate.
		When you break it down between blue states and red states, the any kind of majority, and it's slim, 52, 53 percent, ends up disappearing outright.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		29 states are constitutional carrying.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
		Exactly.
		And then you have, of course, what almost 20500 or so Second Amendment sanctuaries among the counties.
		And then even those who support gun control, even those, it's like number nine out of the ten priority issues.
		So it's not a winning issue.
		And then you have a Supreme Court that's been pretty consistent in shooting down any challenge to the Second Amendment.
		So I think we're in good shape with that.
		And that's why I don't think they really go very far with it.
		They'll try, even Obama tried to whip up some anti Second Amendment sentiment, but it disappeared very, very quickly.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Part of the reason is because the left tends to focus on semi automatic rifles.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Right.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Which when you look into the numbers, there's something along the lines of it averages about three hundred murders per year with a semi automatic rifle.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Which, what?
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		It's all handguns, right?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's all handguns.
		Yeah.
		It's something, there's usually average of about ten thousand murders per year in the United States, ten thousand.
		In a country of three hundred thirty million, that's actually pretty nice.
		It's pretty, very, very, per capita, considerable.
		Right.
		And then when you take, take just rifles, like I said, it's like handguns.
		And if you ask the average person, they'll say, well, you know, even people that are like against guns, they're like, oh, weapons of war shouldn't be on the street, et cetera.
		But then they say, well, what about handguns?
		Well, I think I should be able to have a handgun in my, in my dresser, in case someone breaks in.
		Right.
		So even once you get down to the nitty gritty about gun control, it's unpopular with the vast majority.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		The vast majority.
		There was a very interesting study, you may have read it called Shooters.
		Are you familiar with that term, Shooter?
		Abigail, I can look it up.
		If you look at the author's name is Abigail Something.
		And it's a sho doctoral dissertation from the University of Berkeley, berserkly, okay.
		And she is a huge advocate for what she just simply calls the gun community.
		And she's a cultural anthropologist who studied the gun community, particularly in California, and she was blown away by how diverse it was.
		She started off being against it and thinking she was dealing with a bunch of rural whites in Shasta County or something like that, these patriot militias and so forth.
		She suddenly realized, wait, there's LGBT, there's black people are one of the biggest supporters of gun rights and women in particular and all of a sudden she realized this is one of the most diverse widespread coalitions in the country Vermont you know where I'm from Delaware Delaware's as blue of a state as you can get I can go into any gun shop give them my give them my my license and in 15 minutes I'm out of there with a glock no problem whatsoever
		I've done it so the point is is that more and more I think the left is doing what they can sort of galvanize what's left of just a shattered.
		coalition, because remember the left coalition became Trump's coalition.
		The working class became, this is a Newsweek article back in May, the white working class in 2016, then the nonwhite working class in 2024.
		The Obama coalition is now the Trump coalition, the Democrats don't have a coalition.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		No, they've hollowed, they've really like, they've done so much hollowing out of their support.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		They really have a lower class or poor, basically poor people that are on some kind of government assistance that are reliably Democratic, and then there are the elites.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		The elites, you got it.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		See the underclass and then the superclass.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		And the middle class has moved.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		The middle class has moved to Donald Trump.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		We saw it in Chicago with Mayor Johnson.
		The working class in Chicago, voters, Democrats, they were supporting the Law and Order guy.
		Forget what during the Chicago mayoral campaign, they were all for the Law and Order guy.
		It was the elite bougie whites, and the, what is it, the Miracle Mile, whatever it is.
		It's the elite bougie whites with the underclass that teamed up.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		The managerial class.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		The managerial class, perfect.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Managerial class with this, the sort of underclass they teamed up and they put in it, we're going to see the same thing in New York.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		With Mamdani.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		Exactly.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		That's part of the reason why the left is actually going after the middle class and tries to do what it can to erode them and put as many people into the poor or the rich.
unidentified		Right.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Right.
		Scott Greer had a great bifurcation of the race in the Democrat primary in New York talking about the Zora Mamdani.
		And so he was saying the yuppies weren't really for Mamdani.
		They were kind of split between Cuomo and Adams, the current mayor.
		And so the yuppies, of course, what does that stand for young urban professionals, right?
		The yuppies.
		And so he said, but what was what, um, what you saw going for Momdani was actually the young urban creatives or the term that he came up with, and it's so good, the yuckies, the yuckies.
		It's perfect.
		It's absolutely perfect.
		So shout out to everyone who is an adherent to the Gru Head pledge, of which I am including the old one.
		But before we go, we have a ton of super chats, gotta get to them.
		So, um, you know, a lot of these, by the way, tonight are just comments rather than questions.
		So let's go with it.
		Shane Wilder, who's here yet again.
		Mayor Frey is an idiot.
		I'll be praying a Divine Mercy chaplet for victims of the shooting at Annunciation Catholic School tonight.
		Agnes Dey, quit alles pecata mundi misere misere nobis.
		I didn't know I was going to Latin there, but nomini padre et filio et spirito santi amen.
		And I've got my Saint Michael the Archangel Rosary right here with me.
		It's been with me all day.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Shane H. Wilder is reliably Catholic and he's here all the time.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Let's go.
		This from HS disturbed.
		Are the accounts saying the shooter was a Trump supporter, real people or bots?
		What is the break?down of this moronic death cult?
		Yeah, I saw some people trying to photoshop like a MAGA hat on the shooter and it was just, I mean, it's just ridiculous.
		I don't know where it's from.
		I think it's just, I think it's just disaffected leftists because this is sort of an example of, you know, when prophecy fails.
		So the cognitive dissonance kicks in and they have to do something to, you know, to claim that it was the other because again, in their philosophy, it is Trump and Trump supporters that are destroying the country.
		So they have to find a way to dissociate them from this, which again, even Jacob Fry, in he, that's the cognitive dissonance that's driv so physically upset and uncomfortable about what's going on, he has to push it off into another vector.
		And that's why he has that response.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		And as a mode of control, all it takes is just one person believing it.
		That's all it takes.
		Like every time someone posts a fake post like that.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I heard that.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I heard that.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So it becomes this false belief.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Like to get out of the cognitive dissonance trap.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Even when I saw the posts initially, it was from like right angle news or something.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		I'm like, I don't buy anything now until I have to see a lot of people.
unidentified		Yeah.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Like, I just because the internet being what it is, especially with X being a monetized platform, I don't.
		platform.
		I don't, and it's kind of sad.
		Like in the current year, I don't believe anything anymore.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And like, I got to.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		and proven by, like, beyond the show.
unidentified		You have to wait.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		It used to be that you could just count on a tweet to be pretty much true, and that is no longer right.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Right, I want to point out, remember, there were a lot of people that were sure that Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift were fake.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		That's true.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		They were sure that back around the Super Bowl, they were sure it was fake.
		Now they're, yeah, people were swearing up and down.
		And I was like, I don't know, man.
		Maybe they, maybe they might be real.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		It might be fake.
unidentified		Still maybe fake.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		It's moving the goal post down here.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		She's still obviously a scoundrel.
unidentified		Did it?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Goal posts.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I mean, that'm not getting into it.
		I promised I wasn't going to get into it.
		All I'll say is green lines, green lines.
		This super chat from DF 2992.
		I'm really beginning to think Tim Walls was really telling the truth when he said he is friends with screenshoters.
		Remember, he said it.
		He just keeps coming up.
		It's crazy.
		People saying big shocker.
		We're getting answers.
		Force can the universe.
		Yeah.
		So just a stupid glaze.
		A grand jury refused to indict the D.C. sandwich thrower.
		So we're now seeing jury nullification from the grand jury side, which is going to be a huge problem for a lot of these cases in Washington, D.C., because that D.C. jury pool, even for the grand jury.
		And by the way, you can bring charges without going to a grand jury.
		So you're just you're just going to have to start doing this.
		Right.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		And it's got you got it on film.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		And it's the sandwich sandwich.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		DoJ.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		It was a DOJ employee.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Sure was.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Of course.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Was.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		And he didn't just throw it.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Didn't he hit him with it?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		with it wait wait sir just go back up uh that um uh clothy swiss reset the clock reset the clock Another transshooter.
		Reset the clock.
		There you go.
		What is this?
		Yeah, like this one, Jacob Hawley.
		We must unite and stand together to protect our faith.
		I don't care if you're Catholic or Orthodox or Protestant.
		We are being targeted.
		We must be prepared to defend our faith, our community, friends, and family.
		Keep your head on a swivel.
		Here, here.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		You're here.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		You're here.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Dr. Charlie, another Orthodox.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		No, that's right.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		As long as Orthodox are first, that's all.
unidentified		Ah, yeah.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Well, I should have said Orthodox Catholic.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Married to an Orthodox.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I'm doing my part to mend the schism.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Look, you should own firearms and you should go out and train with them.
		It's not enough that they just sit in the safe or are tucked away in your sock drawer.
		You need to go out and shoot with it.
		You need to carry it with you.
		It's a proficiency.
		You have to have proficiency and it's a disposable skill.
		It will degrade.
		So you have to get out and train right.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		And look, when you're in one of these schools and or if you have kids that go to one of these schools, like I do, by the way, my kids go to a Catholic school.
		And as I was reporting the story today, I in the back of my head, I'm thinking, my son is in a Catholic school right now.
		And, you know, it's just something we all have to think about.
		We have to think about it on a regular basis.
		And guess what?
		We live in a real world.
		And that's how it goes.
		Fortunately, I am, as Phil mentions, someone who also regularly practices my perishable skill, and I am a firm defender and exerciser of the Second Amendment and my rights.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		So it's a perishable skill you have to like keep.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Well, it's like, it's like language, it's like, it's like a language ability.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		So it's not like riding a bike.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		No, it's not.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		The basics, like the basics are, yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		You know, like, I mean, once you know how to shoot, yeah.
		Once you know how to shoot, you're good.
		But if you want to be proficiency, then it's something that you have to do.
		Like, I go, I, there's this drill called a Bill drill.
		which is you shoot six rounds into the target.
		I'm doing it from concealment.
		So I've got my shirt on.
		I draw from my holster in concealment and it like I try and aim for under two seconds to get the gun out and six rounds on target.
		That's what I'm going for.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		That's that's actually under like six rounds on target in two seconds.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Get the gun out and fire from but starting from when he says starting concealed.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So it's your yo I don't know where your holster is but somewhere you know it's a concealed holster.
		So the idea being what he's talking about this is some hey someone's coming up and mugging so Iris told you that story yesterday at the cabinet meeting and she told me that story before from NTD where she was she was mugged and pistol whipped on the street in DC a couple of years ago.
		You know, this is a situation where, hey, you know, if someone's putting a gun in your face, you gotta get yours out real fast because that someone else's gun might already be out.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I tagged you on X in a video of one so I could see.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Oh, nice.
unidentified		Thanks.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		But yeah, it's it's a I would say in if you want to be effective with your firearm, that part is perishable.
		Absolutely.
		And especially with pistols.
		Pistols are harder than people, much harder than people realize.
		Yeah.
		way, way harder.
unidentified		So.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		It's not like a Nerf gun.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		No, I mean, they're fun, but a firearm is a water gun.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		We have like a thousand of those.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		The way I've always explained it is this, that for people who don't, you know, people, there's this mystique around firearms, which which I think the basic training and familiarization training and it sounds, Phil, it sounds like you need to take Libby out to the range, man.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		We need a Libby range day.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I did ask a while back.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Remember we got to go.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		We got to do this.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Look, I mean, it's open from Monday through Sunday.
		I go to Peacemaker.
		It's over in, it's in West Virginia.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		The last time I shot a gun, I was nine year, eight years old.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		My grandfather was shooting me.
unidentified		Really?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		It's to be.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Teaching me how this needs to be fixed.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		I remember what you're doing this weekend?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Shots.
unidentified		Ah.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Can my kid come too?
		Of course.
		Okay, let's do it.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		All right, cool.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Maybe like after church Sunday?
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Perfect time to go.
unidentified		Perfect.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Perfect time to go.
		Look, and so it, yeah, I think it distills the mystique when you get a little more familiarization.
		And, you know, it's not the, you know, the scary thing that can kill.
		Look, it is a tool.
		It is the same as any other tool.
		It is a tool that pushes a piece of metal forward.
		Firearm is a tool that pushes a piece of metal forward.
		That's it.
		That's all it does.
		That's all every firearm.
		There are different types.
		But if you just think of it that way, that's what they are.
		And that's what they do.
		And just like, and it is dangerous, right?
		The same way that any, you know, power tool would be dangerous, et cetera.
		So you have to treat it with a certain amount of respect.
		But at the same time, if you're not using it, if you want to use it effectively, you got to train.
		You got to practice on it.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Interesting.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Pushes a piece of metal forward.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		You like that, Phil?
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		It's accurate.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		All it does.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Push the firing pin forward, which puts...
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		pushes into the you know the primer yeah it's accurate piece of metal piece of metal goes forward That's it.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		That's it.
		So, but once you think of it that way, you know, you start to understand it.
		And then, and then you have your, you know, you have your rules, right?
		Your basic rules.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I remember firearm rules because we had prop firearms when I was doing shows.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		And the rule was you had to treat them like they were real firearms.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Every gun like it's loaded.
		Yeah, every gun like it's loaded.
		That's number one.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		So that's what we were.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Treat every gun like it's loaded.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Like Baldwin probably should have figured that out.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I should have figured that out.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		No, what a son.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		What a clown, how do you do that?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Because you don't care.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		He literally broke every firearm, true?
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Every single one.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		And got away with it.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		Someone, I like this one.
		And I wish it were truer, but this is from Rot Corp, ROT Corp.
		I've been watching these two since 2018, Captain Tim Poole and Turley Nader team up.
		It's like watching the final battle in Endgame.
		Tim Hooligans troublemakers assemble.
		And it's like, we're so close, but Tim, of course, is.
unidentified		Yeah.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Actually, here's.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Well, I'll just have to come out again.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I'll have to come back out again.
unidentified		Yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		I'll have to come back out again.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		ROT Corp is a great guy.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		You do.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Oh, always.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Okay, you know.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		Yeah.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		He's a he's a he comments a lot on our on our channel.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		He's a and he's a member of our insider's club.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So we're wait, where was that other one?
		Someone said, oh, he had another.
		He actually said ROT Corp.
		He said, I hope Dr. Turley gets a beanie and an uncancelable beanie's boonies board.
		Turley Talks Nation will know why cough cough YouTube cough.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Well, somebody can explain it to me, baby.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		I'm getting some hieroglyphics and all that.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Okay, David Ochoa, check out California Assembly Bill 495.
		This is nightmare material.
		The Family Preparedness Plan would expand the type of person who is authorized to execute a caregiver's authorization affidavit.
		So I'm guessing that might have to do with DNRs, like do not resuscitate, something like that.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
		I remember one of the parents that I talked to in California was telling me that there was a bill coming around.
		that would allow anybody to like authorize basically gender care for your kid even if you didn't approve it.
		I don't know if it's that.
		But that was a thing.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Firearms are important.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, there's things that you can't do to somebody else's kid.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah, the idea that you could.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		You shouldn't do them to your kid either.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Here's someone who disagrees, and I love reading disagreeers from Hal Gailey.
		God isn't required for morality.
		Morality can be reached logically and axiomatically.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Oh, it can't.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		But God does make morality concrete in the face of bad argumentation.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		That's if if there is no God then morality is just subjective.
unidentified		Yes.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		You know, back in the day, I think it was the Aztecs that sacrificed twenty thousand people in one year to the sun god.
		That was good I'm an older brother.
		I stepped on that with me.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		I'm actually mad.
		I just am right.
		Yeah, yeah, that's right.
unidentified		I don't get mad.
unidentified		I get mad.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		Women driving things.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		My response to that would be that I hear what you're saying and I am sympathetic to your point.
		However, it does not scale.
		It does.
		So godlessness does not work at scale.
		And in a society where you have people that are constantly searching for meaning, and this is what Nietzsche talked about with nihilism, that when you kill God, people will try to fill that void with anything and it will lead to the destruction of society.
		That is what we are currently living through, which Nietzsche of course predicted 150 years ago.
		And so it just doesn't, yeah, maybe for some people, but it doesn't scale.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		The 20th century was the most bloody and horrific century in human history for a reason.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Nietzsche predicted it.
phil labonte ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, and he he saw what was coming when he proclaimed the death of God.
		It was not some kind of victory he figured.
		He said this is going to be a bloodbath until man remakes himself.
		Now I don't know that man.
		I don't think that he's right about that because I don't think man can remake himself in the way that Nietzsche thought.
		But still, like, it was an absolute bloodbath.
		The 20th century was a complete shit show.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		We have a, we have a, almost like a double super chat here from Maximilian Cunnings.
		Paid quite a, quite a lot of money to say this.
		So hi, Dr. Steve.
		You don't have time to answer my question.
		So I'll see you Friday.
		Also, could you pray for my internet friend as she is extremely suicidal.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Oh my.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So that's Maximilian, excuse me, Maximilian Cunnings.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So you'll be seeing, you'll be seeing Max.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		I will, I will.
		Max, absolutely.
		Yes, absolutely.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		This one comes in from, I'm not your buddy guy.
		The left is radicalized, and I've been warning others, many of these people are genuinely okay with mass human removal.
		This isn't fear-mongering.
		They are utopian and willing to break a few eggs to make that omelet.
		The book on humans is all about this.
		This is specifically what I wrote.
		view us as less than human.
		They view anyone who is in their way, specifically, They think that if we are removed, we are the.
		fly in their ointment.
		We are the ones that need to be removed from the equation so that their final beautiful equal justice, equal equity, social justice society can flourish.
		So remember, communism is always only just a couple of mass killings away from finally working.
libby emmons ▲ ● ▼		There you go.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So well said.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Do we have any rumble rants?
unidentified		Oh, yeah.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I saw a couple.
		This one, Rocket Theology.
		Wow.
		Catholic schools in Northern Virginia have already been doing attack drills and are at max paranoia.
		Many kids' school year will be affected as a result of this attack.
		And unfortunately, it's not paranoia.
		Yeah, it's very real.
		It's very real.
		And we have another one.
		This, oh, I've heard of this actually.
		So jumped up pleb, my friend's company, Praleo Security was created specifically to place armed force, place armed former military guards at Christian schools.
		Very effective.
		So Praleo Security, and there's a number of these that are popping up now.
unidentified		It's great.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Because people are realizing it is a.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		it's just it's just real.
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		It's a necessity.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		It's needed.
		Carlo Magno wrote, Jack, I just googled list of trans violence mass shooting and nothing pops up.
		Are you sure this isn't fake news?
		Question mark, question mark, question mark.
		And I think it's, you know, it's being sarcastic there.
		So, you know, Libby, maybe the post-millennial could put together a compendium.
		Could we do a little list?
unidentified		Maybe a listicle of the listicles are so fun, you guys.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		The top, the top, well, not top, but the most recent top 10 trans shooting.
brett dasovic ▲ ● ▼		It is important because if you're gett looking for news from traditional sites, you're not going to see it.
		It's not easily accessible.
		At the very least, it's not that you can't find it.
		It's that they're going to make it as difficult to find this information as possible.
		And the less you see of it, the quicker it leaves your mind.
		And that's why people will be under the wrong assumption that the violence only goes one way.
		And the media's best tool to lie to you is obfuscation.
		That's why they put the most important information in the last paragraph in every article and why everything gets buried in two days.
		Because they don't necessarily even have to lie to you outright.
		They just need to get it away from your eyes as quickly as possible if they want to push you towards a certain viewpoint.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		So true.
		Yeah.
		The way you have to read, you know, the New York Times or Washington Post is read the bottom first.
unidentified		Hip hack.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		We are starting to run low on time.
		Doctor Turley, you've got a book here that you brought with us.
unidentified		What is this?
unidentified		What?
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah.
unidentified		What are these books?
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah.
		Yes, I do.
		America Awakened, The Collapse of Globalism and The Return to Faith, Family and Freedom.
		A lovely little picture in the back too as well.
		A portrait.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Who's that guy?
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		Who's that?
steve turley ▲ ● ▼		A few pounds ago.
		But yeah, I wrote it really to answer the question.
		I was asked oftentimes, Trump is always bringing up the golden age, the golden age.
		what is this golden age he's talking about?
		And so I sat down and I wrote an entire book on what exactly this golden age is.
		And I basically make the argument it's the era of restorationist politics, what scholars call it.
		It's actually happening all over the world.
		But here in the United States, it's happening in the form of MAGA.
		And what we're seeing is we're seeing the collapse of globalism that is ushering in at the same time one of the greatest religious renewals we've ever seen.
		That's a direct quote from Rodney Stark, the late sociologist at Baylor University.
		That religious renewal is more or less resolving the The reproduction crisis, demographic crisis that we're facing because, like we talked about earlier, conservative Christians here in the United States, conservative religious in general, are having more children than ever, while secular liberals have largely stopped having kids.
		And then thirdly, we're also seeing the rise of what's called the network society.
		Jack and I have actually talked about that in a conference together where the rise of the Internet and cyberspace are increasingly liberating more and more populations from the old liberal structures, very similar to the way email and texting bypass the old.
		So the legacy media is still there.
		It's just that people don't really use it that much anymore because we don't have to.
		We have a new era, a new world that's rising.
		So this resurgence of faith, this resurgence of family and this resurgence of freedom is combining together to create this golden age like never before.
		So America awakens the collapse of globalism and the return to faith, family and freedom.
jack posobiec ▲ ● ▼		And doctor Charlie, tell people where they can go to follow you and get more access to your rants and ravings.
