| All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Not Tim Cast IRL, although, of course, it is TimCast IRL. | ||
| In fact, it is PozoCast IRL. | ||
| Yes, the Pozo cast has returned. | ||
| Tim is, of course, on assignment. | ||
| He is down, I believe, taking care of some business in the great state of Tejas. | ||
| But until then, Jack Pasovic is here. | ||
| I want to say, by the way, a special thank you to Tim Poole for coming down and covering all of last week at Turning Point Headquarters. | ||
| Obviously, everyone there, we're still dealing with the loss of our friend, the loss of our leader, Charlie Kirk, his horrific murder, and all that comes along with it, and trying to figure out what the new normal is there. | ||
| But, you know, Tim spent the entire week at the headquarters, brought his entire team, everybody out. | ||
| We did some great shows together. | ||
| We're wearing some Breros in the Charlie Kirk studio, and we had a really good time because the mission continues. | ||
| And so I'm sure Tim will be listening to this later. | ||
| And so I just had to say that, you know, from the bottom of my heart, really appreciated him being there and showing us the support that he did. | ||
| He says it was just because of scheduling, but I know he's in. | ||
| You don't just spend an entire week because of scheduling. | ||
| But we're really excited to be here. | ||
| I'm excited to be able to fill in for Tim in this capacity because, hey, he was there for us when we needed it as well. | ||
| I want to give a quick shout out before we get into the show. | ||
| And by the way, we've got so much stuff to talk about. | ||
| President Trump talking about the Insurrection Act. | ||
| We saw a ton of violence all over the country this weekend, particularly in Chicago and Portland. | ||
| We're going to get into all of that, as well as the fact that the local officials there are outright saying that they will not comply with the federal government, and one of which even invoked the words civil war. | ||
| Who was it? | ||
| We'll tell you soon. | ||
| Also, new text messages out in the Jay Jones scandal, which continues to spiral out of control in the Attorney General's race in Virginia, as well as affecting the governor's race, lieutenant governor's race. | ||
| We also have huge news about the FBI and Jack Smith conducting secret surveillance of GOP senators and potentially even congressmen as well. | ||
| That was just declassified. | ||
| Insane, but hey, it's clown world and we're just out here defining the clowns. | ||
| So I'm Jack Mosobic filling in for Tim, who is on assignment. | ||
| I do want to tell you guys about Cast Brew Coffee. | ||
| And I'm told, oh man, there are new cast brews, but I forget which one the new ones are. | ||
| Guys, which ones are the new ones? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mary's Ghost Blends. | |
| Mary's Ghost Blend. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| I love Mary's Ghost Blend, which I've never had, but it's so good. | ||
| I love it. | ||
| It's delicious. | ||
| Where is it? | ||
| It's s'mores. | ||
| It's literally s'mores. | ||
| Is that right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Bill's here to help me out. | ||
| Oh, it's on the second page. | ||
| I think so. | ||
| Maybe even the third. | ||
| Guys, if you got a new one. | ||
| No, that's the end crafting green. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| There is Mary's Ghost Blend. | ||
| Oh, my gosh. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Look at that. | |
| I mean, it's perfect, right? | ||
| It's literally perfect. | ||
| Oh, my gosh. | ||
| Mary's Ghost Blend. | ||
| A hauntingly delicious medium roast. | ||
| Mary's Ghost Blend brings the nostalgic taste of Campfire S'mores to your cup, infused with natural flavoring. | ||
| This smooth aromatic blend features notes of toasted marshmallow, crisp, rich chocolate, graham cracker, perfectly balanced for cozy mornings or a late-night whisper. | ||
| It's a spirited brew you won't soon forget. | ||
| Posto's ready for Halloween. | ||
| It's spooky month. | ||
| We're getting a little spooky around the posto household. | ||
| And then what was the other one? | ||
| Is it Bocus? | ||
| There's Mr. Bocus. | ||
| There's Seamus. | ||
| Wait, there's Luck of the Irish Seamus, and we actually have Seamus. | ||
| Oh my gosh. | ||
| She's back. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Should I do my spiel now? | ||
| Let everybody know who I am? | ||
| No, not yet. | ||
| Not yet. | ||
| Just talk about the brew. | ||
| Talk about the brew. | ||
| You know, this is some of the best coffee I've ever had, ladies and gents. | ||
| If you want to put your money towards any of the coffee here, this is the coffee that I would suggest to you. | ||
| It's delicious, magically so. | ||
| And I'm going to check with a lawyer to see if that's a lot. | ||
| I don't know if you're allowed to use that phrase. | ||
| I'm just saying that it is delicious to the point where I would consider it to be somewhat magic. | ||
| They're always stealing me Luck of the Seamus. | ||
| They're always stealing me caffeine. | ||
| Does a bag of that come with a spoon? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't understand the cafe. | ||
| I don't know what that comes from. | ||
| It's incredible stuff. | ||

| Okay. | ||
| So yeah, check out the great new sponsors that Tim has, but we're also going to be checking out the great new guests that we have. | ||
| First time, first time. | ||
| Who are you and what do you do? | ||
| I am Morgan Murphy, candidate for U.S. Senate in Alabama. | ||
| All right. | ||
| We got a candidate, folks. | ||
| We got a candidate. | ||
| Should I give him the traditional Tim Poole Bill of Rights questions? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| We'll go through it. | ||
| We'll get there. | ||
| Don't worry. | ||
| What's your background? | ||
| I'm a Navy captain, a Navy captain in the reserve. | ||
| I started off in the Navy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Started off fellowship mate over there. | ||
| I started off in magazines, though, in the 90s, back when magazines had money. | ||
| So I was working for... | ||
| Magazines, what are those things? | ||
| I know. | ||
| I know. | ||
| I mean, like, people don't believe it now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| Right, that kind of magazine. | ||
| No, I started in Vanity Fair and Forbes back in the 90s when magazines, we spent more on champagne at Vanity Fair, I think, than they spend on a whole magazine today. | ||
| Was that when Chris Hitchens was there? | ||
| It was. | ||
| I did a lot of research for him. | ||
| I was an intern, so I got a lot of coffee and dry cleaning for Graydon Carter and Christopher Hitchens. | ||
| That was the first time I interviewed actually the president. | ||
| So I've interviewed Trump back in the day. | ||
| We'd call him if the stories were slow. | ||
| But I joined the Navy Reserve in 1999, went on to become the executive editor of Southern Living, where I covered food and travel, which was like a gravy train with biscuit wheels, and eventually got deployed to Afghanistan in 2010 and 2011, which killed my neocon beliefs when I was there. | ||
| We can talk more about that later. | ||
| But got into politics after I felt like our culture was collapsing. | ||
| And if normal people didn't go to Washington and help out, we'd lose the country. | ||
| So I went up in 2020 in the last term, last year of Trump's first term, and was the press secretary to the Secretary of Defense. | ||
| And then after the election was stolen, I went to work for Tommy Tuberville, the great senator from the state of Alabama. | ||
| Coach Tubern and I fought the Biden administration. | ||
| I was proud to stand with him as we fought it tooth and nail over things like the Afghanistan withdrawal, Ukraine funding, unlimited abortion on demand, et cetera. | ||
| And then I just wrapped up another tour with the second Trump administration working for General Keith Kellogg. | ||
| Bays? | ||
| Bayes? | ||
| Bayes? | ||
| Sounds good, guys. | ||
| Sounds good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| We'll put you to the test as we go through as maybe not as directly as Tim would, but I think we can get there. | ||
| Let's go around the room a little bit. | ||
| You, who are you? | ||
| Seamus Coglin. | ||
| My name's Seamus Coglin. | ||
| Some of you remember me from when I would make infrequent appearances on the show a while back. | ||
| And I've been getting asked this question by fans of Timcast a lot, fans of my work. | ||
| They're going, when are you going to go back on Timcast? | ||
| Where have you been? | ||
| What happened? | ||
| Some people speculating. | ||
| We've actually been getting comments that's saying, thank you so much for keeping Tim urban. | ||
| No, that's what they're saying. | ||
| They're like, what did he do? | ||
| Why is it how do I get you away from me? | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Everyone's very smoother and better and funny. | ||
| It's a million times better. | ||
| And it's horrible when I'm here, but there's a reason I have to come back. | ||
| And the reason I have to come back is related to the reason why I was gone. | ||
| I am working on something very special. | ||
| I've spent the past eight or nine months putting together a show. | ||
| I'm making an animated show full length. | ||
| The plan is to release it for free on YouTube. | ||
| And we just released our crowdfunding video for it today. | ||
| It's an animated anthology series. | ||
| It's comedy. | ||
| It's science fiction. | ||
| I think you guys are really going to like it. | ||
| Think kind of like Twilight Zone's Black Mirror, but instead of what you get with a lot of modern shows where they try to do this over-the-top pseudo-intellectual nihilism, we actually have an angle. | ||
| We're trying to spread a productive message, but most importantly, we're trying to do it through humor and through story, which I think 99% of conservative humor and content has failed to do. | ||
| But I'm not going to ask you to take my word for it and my word for the fact that this show is good because we've already made the pilot. | ||
| It's a 25-minute long pilot episode. | ||
| If you go over to twistedplots.com, that's the name of the show, twisted plots, and you donate to our crowdfunding campaign to fund our first season, you will be able to watch the entire first episode of our show that's that's available for the first 24 hours of the campaign. | ||
| So after the first 24 hours are up, you're going to have to donate at a certain tier to be able to watch the entire pilot. | ||
| But right now, if you go over there, twistedplots.com, you donate, you support the show, you will be able to see the entire pilot. | ||
| I think you guys are going to love it. | ||
| I think we're going to change and shape culture. | ||
| I think what we're making here is really special. | ||
| And so I want to thank you guys for having me back on here. | ||
| I really want to thank you guys. | ||
| If you're considering donating, go over to twistedplots.com. | ||
| That's awesome. | ||
| And like everybody knows, of course, Seamus from Freedom Tunes and the work that you've done to push the cultural space. | ||
| What platform are you using for crowdfund? | ||
| So right now we're using GiveSend Go, but we actually have our own infrastructure set up on a landing page that we built to give people an idea of what tiers they'll get and what they'll have access to. | ||
| So as soon as you donate, again, because it's within the first 24 hours of our launch, you'll get an email. | ||
| It'll have a link to the pilot behind the paywall. | ||
| I think you guys are going to love it. | ||
| It's something we're all very proud of. | ||
| We are very excited to make more of it. | ||
| So please donate. | ||
| Please help us get to our goal. | ||
| We're at 30,000 right now. | ||
| We need to get to 500,000. | ||
| The reason for that is in order to make an animated show, we basically need a staff of eight to 10 people working for an entire year to make this all happen. | ||
| So we're going to need to get this all funded in order to continue to produce it. | ||
| But I really think it's special. | ||
| I think you guys are going to enjoy it. | ||
| Our full cost for our entire season is actually less than the inflation-adjusted cost for what it took to make one episode of South Park in 1997. | ||
| That's how efficient we are with our budget. | ||
| So I promise we're going to stretch your dollar. | ||
| I promise we're going to get you good content. | ||
| And I promise you, it is not going to be the boring conservative drek you get where it's a guy ranting instead of stories being told and jokes being made. | ||
| You know it's going to be good. | ||
| You know it's going to be good if Seamus is behind it. | ||
| But if you're also looking for something a little twisted, you might want to check out Shane Cashman. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What's up? | |
| I saw a sneak peek of Seamus' new feature and it's hilarious. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Is it any good or it hurts me to say it publicly, but it is hilarious. | |
| Are you paying him $7,000? | ||
| He would never be on my payroll ever. | ||
| We have to stretch our budget. | ||
| That's why it's $500,000. | ||
| Oh, that's what the money's doing. | ||
| That's the $500,000. | ||
| Yeah, I am the host of Inverted World Live. | ||
| And tonight, I should be getting a phone call from the star of Tiger King, Joe Exotic. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wait, wait, wait, wait. | |
| I thought he is calling me from prison at 10 o'clock. | ||
| I'll be running out of here at like 9:30 to take that phone call. | ||
| Exotic is going to call into your shit. | ||
| This isn't like an AI bit. | ||
| This is for real. | ||
| You've done a voice changer. | ||
| This is legit. | ||
| Bureau of Prisons has signed off on this. | ||
| Yes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| And he's going to ask for a pardon. | ||
| I'm sure he will. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So that's going to happen. | ||
| We're also going to talk about creepy robot faces, human eggs that are grown in a lab recently. | ||
| And I got probe news. | ||
| You know, you guys following the probe, the aggressive probe that's coming here from space. | ||
| Oh, it's on its way. | ||
| Oh, this is the one you'd be talking about. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Every day, every day, there's new news, and there is new probe news today. | ||
| And we'll get into that later. | ||
| Yeah, I know everyone's waiting. | ||
| It's coming. | ||
| Yeah, my wife, you know, we were having breakfast this morning. | ||
| She goes, what's up with the probe? | ||
| Do I need more info on the probe? | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Everyone's got probes now. | ||
| Yeah, she's just been just really, really concerned about the probe. | ||
| And of course, someone else who's always probing. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Hello, everybody. | ||
| My name is Phil Levante. | ||
| I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains. | ||
| I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary. | ||
| Let's get into it. | ||
| Probative value. | ||
| All right, guys, we got to get into this because I know if Tim were here, it goes without question, this would be the very first story. | ||
| And we got it up from Politico, so you know it's true, right? | ||
| President Trump, he said this publicly, that he's open to invoking the Insurrection Act itself. | ||
| And we know that he's, you know, been getting close to it. | ||
| We know that he's been kind of toying around with the idea. | ||
| No, I got to spend pretty much the entire day with President Trump yesterday. | ||
| I had the honor of accompanying him on Air Force One. | ||
| We had the Navy, it's the celebration of the Navy's 250th birthday, which actually comes next week, but we celebrated it this week. | ||
| Yeah, ooh yeah, that. | ||
| And it just, you know, it just worked out for scheduling purposes. | ||
| So, you know, shout out to the White House. | ||
| Very excited and very honored to have been able to accompany to ride the greatest plane in the United States, greatest plane in the entire world to celebrate the world's finest Navy there yesterday. | ||
| But this was not a topic that came up. | ||
| But while we were on Air Force One, so he's got the news on. | ||
| It's always Fox News, of course. | ||
| And you're seeing that, yes, they were showing the naval exercises and the sea power demonstrations, but it was video after video of the violence that's gone on in Portland and Chicago just over and over and over. | ||
| And so you have to imagine that he's sitting there and he's watching this as well and he's realizing that he has the power to change it. | ||
| And here's what he came out today saying in response to this. | ||
| So a federal judge just blocked the president from sending National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon, which President Trump has said has been taken over by left-wing domestic terrorists. | ||
| And I think, by the way, speaking of which, I believe Nick Sortor also just had his charges dropped, which is huge. | ||
| So the Multnomah County DA, that's where Portland is, has declined to continue up these charges. | ||
| He was arrested as a working journalist on the ground targeting all of these things that are going on, just showing us, showing us the truth of what's happening. | ||
| He gets arrested, even though you can see all the videos. | ||
| He's the one who's being attacked. | ||
| So God bless Nick Sortor for being out there and doing that. | ||
| And here's President Trump. | ||
| If I had to enact it, I'd do it. | ||
| Talking about the Insurrection Act. | ||
| If people were being killed and courts were holding us up or governors or mayors were holding us up, you look at what's happened with Portland over the years. | ||
| It's a burning, I'll just say it, it's a burning hellhole. | ||
| And then you have a judge that lost her way that tries to pretend there's no problem. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| You're running for office. | ||
| Morgan, what do you think? | ||
| Well, I think he's absolutely right. | ||
| This came up when I was with the Secretary of Defense in his last term. | ||
| So you might remember Dr. Mark Esper got out in front of the president and said, I don't think there's any need to invoke the Insurrection Act. | ||
| And that's the biggest difference between Trump one and Trump two, in my mind, is that there aren't people backbiting him in his own administration and Trump II. | ||
| You're not going to hear Pete Hegseth get out and start making a policy call on whether the Insurrection Act needs to be invoked. | ||
| And we all saw the mostly peaceful protests during BLM in 2020. | ||
| And I think the president was absolutely right there to say we needed to put those down and save lives in federal buildings and property. | ||
| Which Mark Milley apologized for, by the way. | ||
| I'll never forget this, that Mark Milley, they go and clear out Lafayette Square Park, which is just north of the White House. | ||
| And Antifa's out there. | ||
| They're setting fire to St. John's Church, which is just adjacent to that. | ||
| It's all sort of in the same complex, just beyond the White House, but it still has a lot of Secret Service and a lot of protection there. | ||
| And they camp out. | ||
| The Secret Service is doing what they can to at least protect the compound. | ||
| The President of the United States, remember, they made fun of him because they brought him down into the bunker. | ||
| They were making fun of it. | ||
| They were laughing about this. | ||
| They were setting fire to historic buildings and churches. | ||
| Again, setting fires to churches. | ||
| Where have I heard this one before? | ||
| And President Trump says, clear them all out. | ||
| And they go and clear them all out. | ||
| And they did the walk. | ||
| Remember, they do the walk. | ||
| I was there for the walk. | ||
| Yeah, I was not there for the walk. | ||
| But watched the walk. | ||
| And Mark Milley was later, General Milley was really upset that he had been photographed. | ||
| And he apologizes. | ||
| And he apologized. | ||
| He apologized to Barbara Starr. | ||
| I think he was upset that, one, he'd worn his camos over to the White House. | ||
| He'd like them because they were roomie, right? | ||
| Yeah, I never understood that, by the way. | ||
| If you're going to the White House and you're going to be moving to Oval, you would wear your Class A's. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| He didn't like the Class A's. | ||
| It just, you know, probably looks at him. | ||
| Was he on the large side? | ||
| What I'm trying to say, he was a husky size. | ||
| He was probably offended by the Sec War's news. | ||
| He'd be the first one. | ||
| He'd be the first one. | ||
| I love what Pete Hegset is saying is we're going to make the generals PT. | ||
| We're going to hold them to the same standard. | ||
| Love that. | ||
| But yeah, he walked across. | ||
| He was embarrassed by it and apologized by it. | ||
| That's what got Dr. Esper crossways with the president because the president makes the policy call, not the Secretary of Defense. | ||
| Look, guys, and we should go around and show this, but I mean, the violence that's going on throughout Portland, throughout Chicago. | ||
| And I believe we, do we have that clip? | ||
| Can we play this clip with the Chicago mayor? | ||
| Because as crazy as Portland gotten, I don't think that we've heard a higher level official from one of these areas say something as horrific as this. | ||
| Let's at least play the first part of it. | ||
| Play it. | ||
| Nice play it here. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| The right wing in this country wants a rematch of the Civil War. | ||
| I just, I want that to sit in right now because the president of the United States of America has declared war on the people of Chicago and people across America. | ||
| He's more interested in giving billions of dollars to other nations while farmers in urban cities around this country are literally being destabilized. | ||
| Does anyone know what he's talking about, about the farmers and urban cities? | ||
| He's just making things up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, this is something that's where are the urban farmers. | |
| Well, those are words. | ||
| They came out of his mouth. | ||
| Liberals, I mean, these leftists, their brains kind of work like LLMs. | ||
| They just throw words together into a salad bowl and they shake it up and then they pour it out. | ||
| And after a certain number of times, they find that specific words get them the results that they want. | ||
| But there's not actually a demonstration of a real understanding of language. | ||
| This is why they call men women. | ||
| This is why they call everything they don't like racist. | ||
| This is why you're a homophobe if you don't want some pervert dancing in front of your child in drag. | ||
| I mean, his words mean nothing, and that's why they mean nothing. | ||
| Well, I mean, look, the left largely doesn't believe in overarching narratives. | ||
| There are just tons of postmodernists on the left, so they don't believe in overarching narratives. | ||
| They don't believe that words actually have meaning. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Exactly. | |
| They believe that words are a tool and words are used to assert power. | ||
| So the meanings of the words don't matter. | ||
| They don't have to believe them. | ||
| And if you look at the postmodernist philosophers like Sartre and Foucault, they say things like, I don't remember exactly who said this, but he said, it doesn't matter if I'm actually making a good argument. | ||
| All that matters is that I'm interesting because they don't believe in arguments. | ||
| They don't believe that people can make an argument from an honest position. | ||
| They believe that it's all about power. | ||
| And when you have that as an overarching belief, or even if you don't have an overarching belief and you just adopt that mindset, it doesn't matter what I say. | ||
| All I have to do is say whatever I can say to win the argument. | ||
| That's what you get. | ||
| You get these kind of word salad, you know, vomiting of words. | ||
| And we would hear this with the former vice president, with Kamala Harris. | ||
| She would just say things and they didn't really make a lot of sense. | ||
| Okay, so as crazy as that was, let's go back to the first part of what he just said there. | ||
| The right wing in this country wants a rematch of the civil war, which is literally nothing compared, nothing that anyone has said at all. | ||
| No, we want the enforcement of federal law. | ||
| We want the enforcement of federal law to be done. | ||
| We want something called the supremacy clause of the United States Constitution that says that when there is a conflict between state and federal laws, national laws, that it is the federal government that comes first. | ||
| And we know that in the Constitution, it is very clear that the federal government has the authority to enforce the laws when it comes to immigration. | ||
| It's really simple. | ||
| That's all this is. | ||
| And by the way, we were talking about this before the show that, you know, those mayors and those governors could have done the work to try to prepare for this coming. | ||
| They could have tried to help those citizens or excuse me, they could have tried to help those people get out of there in the first place, help the citizens have relief from this massive influx of illegal aliens that came in. | ||
| They did nothing. | ||
| They did absolutely, what were they doing? | ||
| They were supporting this policy. | ||
| So, no, it is not them who are pushing for civil war at all. | ||
| It is you and you, this mayor of Chicago, and it is the officials in Portland that are fighting this that are the ones that are in rebellion. | ||
| They are in open rebellion against the federal government. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is all. | |
| I don't even know his history. | ||
| I mean, the history is, the history is of the South in the Civil War invoking states' rights. | ||
| What are these people doing? | ||
| They're invoking the rights. | ||
| They're setting up sanctuary cities. | ||
| They're saying you cannot have federal supremacy here. | ||
| You're not going to move in here. | ||
| So they've gotten the history completely backwards, which is gaslighting. | ||
| This is why they're a death cult, though, because they'd rather sacrifice their city. | ||
| They let the cities burn. | ||
| They let innocent people die and not let Trump or the government protect citizens. | ||
| They worship this death. | ||
| I completely agree with you. | ||
| And that's the purpose of it. | ||
| I've mentioned this on the show before. | ||
| Leftism is just the intellectual rationalization for social decay. | ||
| You find these very high-falutant ways of describing your desire to not do the things that you actually have to do as an adult to keep society functioning. | ||
| And then you call that a belief system and like certain other people who also want to abdicate all of their responsibility, treat it as if you've said something profound because you've given them an out. | ||
| And so that applies to every facet of society and everything falls apart. | ||
| We know Jack, I'm sure, would happily tell people about the history of this as a fellow papist. | ||
| But you look at where the left comes from, it's the French Revolution. | ||
| That's where we first get this term. | ||
| And how did the left enter the world stage? | ||
| Beheading priests. | ||
| I don't know if I can describe this on air, but abusing nuns, murdering innocent people, this insane, insatiable bloodlust was how they was how they broke out on the world. | ||
| Robespierre guillotined prior to the Bolshevik Revolution. | ||
| The left are the genesis of terrorism because of the French Revolution, the terror during the French Revolution. | ||
| That's where the term terrorism comes from. | ||
| And you might remember the school board of education in Chicago, I believe, during 2020 riots rolling out a guillotine in protest of starting schools again. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That's insane. | ||
| These are the guys who started this. | ||
| These are the ones who set it up. | ||
| And, you know, my British friends get on me when they say, well, actually, America was the first revolutionary. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| But you didn't see that in America. | ||
| You didn't see that type of revolutionary reprisal violence. | ||
| Certainly you saw the Revolutionary War, but you didn't see this idea of if every if no one, if people don't refuse to, if people do refuse to go along with the revolution, they'll be destroyed. | ||
| They smashed the Notre Dame Cathedral, by the way. | ||
| They smashed all the stained glass windows. | ||
| This fire in, you know, what, 2019 wasn't the first time it was taken down, attacked, I should say. | ||
| And it was all the statues out front, the, you know, the, I think it was the kings of Israel are the statues and some of the saints that they all get smashed and destroyed. | ||
| And the entire and the entire cathedral, this is beautiful. | ||
| It gets converted into what they called a temple of reason. | ||
| Reason. | ||
| Temple of reason. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| And I'm like. | ||
| Sounds about right. | ||
| Okay, so they were just Redditors. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They're like, yeah, this is quite reasonable as they're smashing a trend. | |
| 250 years ago, right? | ||
| That's what they were saying. | ||
| We do not believe in these superstitions of Christ and Christianity. | ||
| We believe in reason and wisdom. | ||
| And that's why we're going to kill all the priests and nuns. | ||
| Well, and I just want to mention this. | ||
| The American Revolution, it's kind of a misnomer in a certain sense. | ||
| There was a revolt and there was a new form of government, but it was not as if they were trying to completely overturn the entire social fabric and build something new and anti-human in its place. | ||
| They didn't try to recreate the calendar. | ||
| You know, they weren't trying to force religion out of society. | ||
| They actually said it was very important for religion to have its place and specifically for Christianity to have its place. | ||
| So they were very different phenomena. | ||
| And actually, with the French Revolution, many of the people who initially supported the revolution ended up recanting and regretting it when they saw what the other revolutionaries did. | ||
| I don't think that was so much the case with the American Revolution. | ||
| They ended up being pretty proud of what they built and for good reason. | ||
| They had legacy in mind. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You know, not just ripping everything down and starting off. | ||
| It wasn't the cultural revolution. | ||
| Whoa, guys, listen to this. | ||
| They're now saying that this may be, this sounds like a cartel. | ||
| I'm just looking at the New York Times updates because, guys, we have to understand what we're talking about here. | ||
| And we're going to ask you this in a second. | ||
| I think what we're looking through are potentially the early stages of an actual insurrection against the United States government. | ||
| This goes back to the Whiskey Rebellion when George Washington, a sitting U.S. president, by the way, rode into battle along with Alexander Hamilton, you know, sort of his son he never had, you know. | ||
| And look at this now. | ||
| So federal agents are now accusing a Chicago man of targeting a high-ranking member of the Border Patrol in a murder for hire plot. | ||
| A charge. | ||
| They're putting out hits on Border Patrol officials. | ||
| This comes to the Trump administration. | ||
| And of course, listen to New York Times. | ||
| Floods Illinois. | ||
| Floods Illinois with immigration enforcement officers and mobilizes troops. | ||
| Listen to this. | ||
| Juan Espinoza Martinez 37 had recently offered 10 grand in a Snapchat message for the killing of an unnamed senior Border Patrol officer. | ||
| And guys, I'm just going to call it right now. | ||
| The officer's been named now. | ||
| CWB Chicago is saying that it was a hit on Commander Gregory Bovino. | ||
| That's actually, I put it in the. | ||
| So look at this. | ||
| This guy, okay, here. | ||
| And they have more in the actual document. | ||
| Yo, this guy was a member of the Latin Kings. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| This is a member of the Latin Kings. | ||
| And I'm going to tell you right now, this sounds like a cartel hit. | ||
| This sounds like a cartel hit. | ||
| They're working with the Latin Kings. | ||
| And, you know, some agent that knew too much and was in their way. | ||
| And now they're offering, look at this. | ||
| They have a cash app account. | ||
| I probably shouldn't even post all that stuff. | ||
| They're putting all this out. | ||
| They're putting all this out in the charging document. | ||
| Look at this. | ||
| Look at this. | ||
| 2K on info, Kwando Lagarin, 10K if you take him down. | ||
| LK, LK on him. | ||
| The Latin Kings, right there. | ||
| Look at that. | ||
| That's crime in America today. | ||
| Morgan, you're talking about running for Congress or for Senate to be in the U.S. Congress. | ||
| This is what's going on in parts of the United States right now. | ||
| People have no idea. | ||
| They have no idea how large these forces are, how much money they have, how much money these cartels have to fight back. | ||
| I mean, the amount of money that they have is, I mean, bigger than any European military. | ||
| So we have to be really careful and we have to have our head on a swivel about things like this. | ||
| I'm glad they're on it, but terrifying. | ||
| Where do you come down? | ||
| So President Trump, he is federalizing the National Guard, though he's doing so under the auspices of protecting the federal facilities. | ||
| Now, if President Trump invokes in the Insurrection Act, let's take it back to there. | ||
| That means they can actually go out into the city and put down, of course. | ||
| And this is Title 10, Black Letter Law. | ||
| It predates the Civil War because the Insurrection Act is 1807. | ||
| It was passed in the wake of the Whiskey Rebellion to say that the federal government can federalize the state militias if there is a case of a rebellion. | ||
| And this obviously was something that George Washington himself participated in, putting down a rebellion. | ||
| So it is not some new law or new tradition or something that Trump made up. | ||
| It goes all the way back to our very first president, the founder of our country. | ||
| At what point does it cross that line? | ||
| Well, we're getting really close to your point. | ||
| I mean, the left projects all the time. | ||
| They project on us, oh, you're fascist, but they're the ones using the tools of government to harass conservatives. | ||
| They say that, and you just saw it, civil war. | ||
| The right wants civil war. | ||
| Well, I think they're projecting there. | ||
| And that, you know, you got to pay attention. | ||
| When somebody tells you who they are, believe them. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| No, I totally agree. | ||
| All they can do is project. | ||
| They're constantly accusing you of what they're trying to do. | ||
| And when they accuse people of fascism, it's kind of funny because people think that what fascism means is right-wing authoritarianism. | ||
| Fascism, by definition, takes on a different character based on what people are being, quote unquote, represented by that fascist system. | ||
| But the core philosophy or the core belief of fascism is that the state exists above all. | ||
| Like this is what Giovanni Gentila and Benito Mussolini actually wrote. | ||
| This is how the people who defined fascism, who created ideology, actually referred to it, actually described it. | ||
| It's the belief that the state exists above all, is the highest moral authority and can change what your rights are at any moment. | ||
| Now, who believes that in the United States of America? | ||
| Let's be serious about this. | ||
| It's the people who are always accusing everybody else of being fascist. | ||
| And this is not, I understand that it's cringe to a certain degree to go like, well, the left are the real fascists. | ||
| The left are the real racists because we're using their language. | ||
| But the truth is, if you look at the actual definition of fascism, instead of thinking fascism just means when right-wingers make rules or when the law is enforced, you find that leftism and fascism share that similar threat in common. | ||
| So to your initial point, right? | ||
| So they blame everything. | ||
| They blame the people. | ||
| They blame everyone else for doing what they actually do. | ||
| It's called Darvo. | ||
| It's deny, attack, reverse, victory, offender. | ||
| That's a typical standard. | ||
| Playbook. | ||
| It's right out of like the Sololinsky playbook. | ||
| It is very standard on the left. | ||
| And to your point, Seamus, about the fascism stuff, I disagree that they are fascist in that they aren't nationalists. | ||
| And that's a key component of fascists. | ||
| But they are every bit as authoritarian as they accuse other, you know, they accuse the right of being. | ||
| And to be honest with you, like the accusations that they level at the right, I'm getting to the point where I kind of want the right to be a little more authoritarian, to be a little more assertive, because things like you've got judges and DAs that will allow the, that will, that when the police arrest, if the police arrest these people, they don't prosecute. | ||
| They won't put these people in jail. | ||
| They allow them back on the street, even up to and including people that attack law enforcement. | ||
| They will assert that they have not done, they've done nothing. | ||
| We're just here as peaceful protesters. | ||
| But everyone knows that the phrase peaceful protester has been a meme since 2020. | ||
| You know, peaceful protester as they're punching people. | ||
| Well, and here's what happened. | ||
| So perfect example of this was in Chicago this weekend that I know everyone's seen the news, but just think about this. | ||
| There were ICE agents that were boxed in by 10 cars. | ||
| This is a military operation. | ||
| All right. | ||
| You were in Afghanistan, right? | ||
| Did 10 cars just show up by accident to box in a group of troops? | ||
| No. | ||
| No, that is an operation. | ||
| By the way, this is exactly how, by the way, you used to know this. | ||
| If you're in Afghanistan, if you get a bunch of guys boxed in by cars, what's usually the next thing that happens? | ||
| You die. | ||
| Yeah, you get a V-bid. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So a vehicle-borne ID, that is the classic scenario. | ||
| I know a bunch of guys who came back from Afghanistan and they don't even like being traffic jams. | ||
| Oh, no, I know what I'm saying. | ||
| Traffic jams. | ||
| Nine months after I got back going to the mall, I would worry about, I will never, and to this day, I will not pull up right on the bumper of the car in front of me. | ||
| You always leave an accident. | ||
| But it's what you were saying earlier, I think, is so important about the word and words and how words matter. | ||
| As a Christian, my Bible starts off in the beginning was the word. | ||
| Could have started off in the beginning was light, or in the beginning was space, or in the beginning was God. | ||
| But it started off the beginning as the word because words are so powerful. | ||
| And if you believe in a higher authority, then you believe in the power of words. | ||
| And this thread of our culture has lost the word, and they believe that human beings are the ultimate authority. | ||
| Our government is the ultimate authority. | ||
| And that's why words are so fluid on the left. | ||
| They don't mean anything. | ||
| What is a woman? | ||
| They don't know. | ||
| They won't put a fence around it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| The fact that they will use words in a way to just assert power, that's a really difficult thing for the average person to wrap their head around. | ||
| Because one of the blind spots that liberalism, and when I say liberalism, I mean like a liberal democracy like our Republican form, our Republican form of government, where we have a Republican form of government, but our society is a very liberal, focused on liberty, focused on the individual. | ||
| But one of the things that liberalism has kind of a blind spot or is vulnerable to is people that approach the good-hearted and honest debate without the same scruples, right? | ||
| If you're going to come into a debate and you don't intend on being honest and you don't intend on having a charitable conversation and all you're going to do is use the most hyperbolic way to engage that you can and just assert that your enemies are evil and you assert that their motivations are bad. | ||
| The people that want to engage in dialogue are generally at a loss. | ||
| And it makes it really difficult for people to, for normal people, people that aren't schooled in that, people that don't understand how people, the left will operate. | ||
| That's exactly why John Adams said our country was built for a moral and religious people. | ||
| 100%. | ||
| 100%. | ||
| To go back to what Jack was saying about you were saying this is the beginning of the overthrow of our government. | ||
| Those seeds, I think, were planted in 60s and 70s. | ||
| I don't know if they're going to overthrow, to be fair, they want to overthrow our government. | ||
| Let's just say overthrow our society. | ||
| And that's what they want. | ||
| But in this instance, I just want to limit it to this, that when you're looking at Portland, you're looking at Chicago, which are sort of the pivot point cities. | ||
| They're the key cities in their respective states, Oregon, Illinois. | ||
| There's tons of parts of Illinois and Oregon that are not in rebellion. | ||
| But with these cities being in open rebellion, they are testing whether or not the federal government will have the resolve to do, to be able to enforce the law here. | ||
| And I think those seeds were planted in probably the 60s and 70s in colleges that teach the postmodernism, teach the deconstruction. | ||
| We had the weather underground people who were felons killing people, making bombs. | ||
| They were Marxists. | ||
| They went to prison. | ||
| They were pardoned by leftists, liberals. | ||
| Cuomo did it. | ||
| Clinton did it. | ||
| They went into colleges and started teaching. | ||
| And there are no movies about the weather underground. | ||
| You do not see 2,500 bombings the United States saw between 1970 and like midway through 1972. | ||
| So don't tell me. | ||
| And you can talk to people who are like, I was alive in the 70s. | ||
| That never happened because you've never seen it in Hollywood. | ||
| I know. | ||
| Well, this is one of those hilarious things that every now and again. | ||
| And listen, I'm not trying to put everyone in the generation in the same box. | ||
| My parents are boomers. | ||
| They're wonderful people. | ||
| They're incredibly based. | ||
| But it was just the fact that that generation was particularly consumed by media and by television. | ||
| And I think part of the reason that we're not is because we've gotten more skeptical of what we've been told by the pundits and the folks on TV. | ||
| But I will say this. | ||
| When somebody points, I saw this. | ||
| Somebody pointed out like, well, the Weather Underground was setting off bombs and they were extremely violent, but like no one talks about it and no one knew about it because it wasn't on TV. | ||
| And every now and again, you'll see some older guy commenting like, no, I was there and it didn't happen. | ||
| They're making their point. | ||
| No, I know. | ||
| They're making their point. | ||
| But here's the thing. | ||
| Listen. | ||
| On X, I was doing that. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| Like my parents and my, I guess it depends on what background you're from because they knew that. | ||
| They knew that hippies were good. | ||
| They knew like farmers who were based. | ||
| But this is, oh, can I say one thing, actually? | ||
| This is, I asked my dad this. | ||
| I remember when I was like 12, I was like, dad, and pardon my French, but I just got to quote the man accurately. | ||
| I was like, dad, you know, he was born in the early 50s. | ||
| So I was like, in the 60s, did you know any hippies? | ||
| And my dad, you know, he's a Southsider. | ||
| He's from Chicago. | ||
| He's like, we knew one hippie. | ||
| Everyone thought he was an asshole. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Exactly. | |
| He's like, in movies, they have you think everyone was a hippie. | ||
| No one liked those things. | ||
| There is empirical data. | ||
| There is empirical data to show that this did have an effect at the time that is kind of misremembered or just totally overlooked by other things. | ||
| And I'll tell you what happened because, okay, what were the years that I just said? | ||
| 1970 to 1972. | ||
| Well, was there something that happened nationally in 1972? | ||
| Oh, there was a presidential election. | ||
| That's right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And does anyone remember? | ||
| Let's put our poly sci hats here. | ||
| Who won the presidential election in 1972? | ||
| Richard Milhouse Nixon. | ||
| And how many states did he win? | ||
| It was 49 out of 50 states in that election. | ||
| So the idea that the 70s were, oh, that was all about the counterculture. | ||
| It was all about change. | ||
| Really? | ||
| No, it sounds like it was people like Seamus' dad sitting there going, hey, we need to do something about these crazy hippies. | ||
| Let's put Nixon in there. | ||
| And then so then Watergate happens two years later totally overshadows everything that people were fighting against in 68. | ||
| So remember, Nixon wins in 68 and then wins in 72, campaigning on what? | ||
| Cleaning up the streets. | ||
| And by the way, ending the war in Vietnam. | ||
| So that's what he ran on. | ||
| And this idea that, and by the way, I do believe that Watergate itself will be exposed one day and we'll get the truth about how he was totally set up by the Nixon Redemption Arc. | ||
| Nixon Redemption Arc. | ||
| I'm all in. | ||
| Why does he need to be redemption? | ||
| Well, what happened today makes Watergate look like a parking ticket. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Exactly. | |
| And we'll get to that in a minute. | ||
| We'll get to that in a minute. | ||
| Because we've got some, oh, wow, and more spying coming up. | ||
| But I want to hit a couple more pieces on this before we do get to the next story. | ||
| But it just goes to show you that even though we haven't done any movies on this, and certainly, you know, by the way, Seamus, do you have any Freedom Tunes on The Weather Underground? | ||
| We actually haven't done a Freedom Tunes. | ||
| I'm part of the problem. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, my God. | |
| Listen, I make fun of the lefties that are around today. | ||
| I have made fun of boomers. | ||
| And how many episodes have you done of that? | ||
| So we on Freedom Tunes, we have like over 600 videos that we've done. | ||
| 600 videos and a single one. | ||
| How can we connect one of those series to how we're going to be able to do that? | ||
| Maybe we'll bring them up and twist their plots. | ||
| Maybe I'll have to bring up the Weather Underground and Twist again. | ||
| In 2020, so Susan Rosenberg was pardoned by Clinton, right, on his last day in office. | ||
| I believe that's right. | ||
| She became a professor. | ||
| And then around 2020, she was part of Thousand Currents, right? | ||
| Which helped act blue with their money during the riot and all the let's get the arsonists bailed out. | ||
| So there's a direct line between those domestic Marxist terrorists to the Black Lives Matter domestic Marxist terrorists. | ||
| And so Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dorn ended up raising the son of, I can't remember her first name, Boudin was the last name. | ||
| Chessa Boudin. | ||
| Well, I can't remember his mom's name. | ||
| Oh, my bad. | ||
| And so they ended up raising the son of another pair of members of the Weather Underground who did go to jail for, I believe, killing a security guard when they were conducting a bank robbery. | ||
| And his name was Chesa Boudin, and he became the George Soros DA of San Francisco. | ||
| True, it's true. | ||
| Who actually got thrown out because he was so crazy and he just stopped prosecuting crime. | ||
| So again, all of the stuff that we live with, see Seamus has to go a step past. | ||
| The liberals that we live with now are the next generation of the Weather Underground. | ||
| They are. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| No, I don't disagree with you. | ||
| Listen, and I've done videos not necessarily on the Weatherground Underground. | ||
| Sorry, what's wrong with me? | ||
| But I've done videos on what was happening in the 60s. | ||
| And even prior, you look at Alfred Kinsey and his whole series of perversions and the fact that. | ||
| Why is Seamus so lazy? | ||
| Like, why doesn't he? | ||
| He's like backpedaling us. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's like asking for $500,000. | |
| He can't even make a 30-second clip about the Weather Underground. | ||
| Just undid your whole Uber. | ||
| I was specifically asked to do it, and I said, no, because I like the Weather Underground. | ||
| No, but in all seriousness, hey, maybe the Weather Underground is going to have to come up in an episode of Twisted Plots. | ||
| Maybe we will. | ||
| It's worth pointing out in the 60s, there were a lot of people. | ||
| The average person thinks that all of the hippies were anti-war and stuff. | ||
| And to be honest with you, there was a small portion that were anti-war, but they were anti-Vietnam War, not because they're against exercising power, but because they were on the side of the communists. | ||
| That's literally. | ||
| They were on the side of the Viet Cong. | ||
| They thought that the United States was an imperial force and that it was evil and that the communists were the actual good guys. | ||
| That's why Jane Fonda went to North Vietnam and did all the, you know, took all the pictures that she did and basically was giving aid and comfort to the enemy. | ||
| It was because they thought the U.S. was on the wrong side. | ||
| It's not that they were against war. | ||
| It's they were against the United States and they were communists. | ||
| So they were ideologically aligned with the North. | ||
| And Shane, do you know the Star Wars tie-in there? | ||
| Do you know what Shame is? | ||
| The Star Wars tie? | ||
| The Star Wars tie-in to what he said, what Phil's saying. | ||
| I don't know that piece of history. | ||
| Okay, so this is so the original draft of Star Wars, which would become the first movie with Lucas's script, which is totally thrown out by Fox, by 20th Century Fox, was the rebels were based on the Viet Cong and the empire was based on the United States and France. | ||
| And obviously he drew on a lot of trappings from like Dune and stole a lot of Frank Herbert's iconography, but that's what he wanted it to be. | ||
| And he wanted it to be the story where the rebels literally were that. | ||
| And so if you actually watch, it doesn't happen in the first Star Wars movie, but in the third movie, in Return of the Jedi, you can really see like some of those scenes when they're on Endor. | ||
| Oh, gosh, Endor, thank you. | ||
| When they're on Endor, it kind of seems like a Vietnam-style movie, and that's why. | ||
| Oh, that's interesting. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I didn't know. | |
| Yeah, George Lucas, George Lucas didn't actually write Star Wars, but that's another piece. | ||
| Well, you know, Star Wars was already ruined. | ||
| So, you know, Jack just adding that little bit of extra. | ||
| Kami from the start. | ||
| But look, we do have, you know, look, all right. | ||
| Before we, before we go off, I know I keep saying we're going to, I'm just going to say it. | ||
| I think if President Trump were to invoke the Insurrection Act, for these specific cases and for this specific enforcement power, I think America would be behind him. | ||
| The same way that the same country that voted for Nixon in 68 and 72, the same people who can see the abject violence out there, I think America would be for it. | ||
| I totally do. | ||
| I thought it should have happened in 2020. | ||
| I agree. | ||
| When the cities were completely overwhelmed by satanic terrorists. | ||
| So I tend to agree, but with one caveat, I think that most Americans would support it. | ||
| The problem is we've got like, what, between 50 and 100 million people here. | ||
| I mean, yes, they say there's only 20 million illegals after they just like left the border wide open for decades and never increased the number of illegals that were here in the statistics since like, what, like the early 2000s? | ||
| It's just always been the same number. | ||
| And what are those, and what are those networks doing? | ||
| They're putting hits on border patrol agents. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| So I agree with you. | ||
| This is a lot of people. | ||
| Americans would support it, but like a quarter of the people in the country wouldn't. | ||
| And by the way, and I believe they, if you go back to Title 10, if you go back to the actual Insurrection Act, we're not talking about just insurrection. | ||
| That's foreign invasion. | ||
| You've got foreign invaders on your soil. | ||
| If you can put the tie, and by the way, I'm sure it's not going to take a lot to tie the Latin Kings to the cartels. | ||
| That because we keep pointing this out, that the street violence that's going on in all of these cities, the gangs are getting the fentanyl from the cartels. | ||
| These are foreign-linked. | ||
| It's right there. | ||
| And so black letter law, the president has complete authority and has had so since the day he put his hand on the Bible to invoke this act to stop what's going on in their cities. | ||
| And if we get to the point where there are foreign-based organizations that are putting out hits on the border patrol, then look, a limited, a limited, partial 2% invocation of the Insurrection Act would be absolutely warranted. | ||
| And Mr. President, we would support you. | ||
| Well, we did that. | ||
| We did that in Washington, D.C. | ||
| Well, so in D.C., DC is different, though. | ||
| DC, it's not a state. | ||
| Technically, the Secretary of the Army is the governor of D.C. when it comes down to it. | ||
| So it's a different case, but it is, I think, a show of how many people would support Trump if he did that and if he put down these crazy riots in a lot of these cities. | ||
| I was in D.C. when he did that. | ||
| And even in 2020, when he was able to do that, and then again this year, and I remember in 2020 in the riots, and we would have these buses of federal agents and National Guard just coming in, and then you'd see the guys come off and they're all kidded up. | ||
| And I'm just sitting there like, let's go, let's go, let's clean up the streets. | ||
| And you see it now with Washington, D.C., where it's been totally fine. | ||
| Mural Bowser has come out in support. | ||
| Bowser's for it. | ||
| Like, D.C.'s 93.5% Democrat, and the other 6.5% is communist. | ||
| So for the fact that that city has been supportive of the National Guard there tells me that the rest of the country, I believe, would be too. | ||
| That's because they really do live with the results of having a police department and a judicial system that doesn't put people in prison, doesn't actually take the criminals off the street. | ||
| And this is something we've talked about before on the show. | ||
| Most areas that have a crime problem, if you arrest 1,000, 1,500 people, the crime problem goes away because the police know the same people are committing the crimes over and over and over and over. | ||
| It's not even that many people. | ||
| Let me tell you, my hometown, my hometown, Birmingham, Alabama, two miles from where my house is, there was a mass shooting last year. | ||
| 18 people got shot. | ||
| The guy that did it, 22-year-old kid, allegedly did it, was responsible for 30% of the murders in Birmingham, Alabama, a city of a million people that year. | ||
| 30%, one guy. | ||
| So, I mean, I completely believe you. | ||
| And that only makes my point. | ||
| You don't have to actually violate a bunch of people's rights and do all this large operation stuff. | ||
| You need to get the handful of people that are extremely violent and you put them in jail for until they're 50, right? | ||
| So that way they're no longer all young and full of vim and vigor and want to go out and get weird, right? | ||
| Put them in jail until they're old men, and then the whole population is better for it. | ||
| And that's all that really needs to happen. | ||
| And that's all in DC. | ||
| Yeah, that's something that has happened basically. | ||
| So as crazy as this is, we have some more. | ||
| We have some more craziness going on because we say, all right, we're just going to get the laws enforced. | ||
| That's what we all want. | ||
| We just want the laws enforced. | ||
| We want the rules enforced. | ||
| But our second story tonight, we have more text messages from Virginia Attorney General candidate Jay Jones. | ||
| Now, you may have seen over the weekend, or if you didn't, that this guy, Jay Jones, got into a little bit of trouble for text messages that he put out in, well, I should say that he sent in 2022. | ||
| They just came out in the wake of him running, where he sent text messages to a GOP House delegate, a woman, talking about, and my gosh, I actually can't even read this on air, so I'm not going to read it. | ||
| But he talked about specific killings of other and in detail, in graphic detail, and referred to his opponents as, you know, he said Gilbert was the guy's name. | ||
| And then he said, Gilbert, Hitler, and Pol Pot. | ||
| Gilbert gets to the head. | ||
| I'm reading his comments, by the way. | ||
| Put him in the crew with the two worst people you know, and he receives two every time. | ||
| He then, after the woman, listen, just listen to this. | ||
| This is how horrific this guy is. | ||
| After she asked him to stop texting her that stuff, he then reportedly called her and suggested that he wished his wife could watch her own child die in her arms so that he might reconsider his political views. | ||
| This is a guy who's running for AG in Virginia. | ||
| Now, he's been endorsed by all the Democrats. | ||
| None of them have rescinded their endorsements. | ||
| Joe Scarborough, though, I'll give him credit on this. | ||
| He has called for him to withdraw. | ||
| He has called for him to drop out of the race. | ||
| So, all right, he's done that. | ||
| But now there are more text messages that came out. | ||
| So those came out over the weekend. | ||
| Now there's more text messages that came out. | ||
| Talking about police officers. | ||
| The Virginia AG candidate, Jay Jones, said if more cops got killed, they wouldn't shoot so many people. | ||
| According to a lawmaker. | ||
| Oh my gosh, that's insane. | ||
| Firstly, it is literally the exact opposite, by the way. | ||
| Like aside from how hideous that statement is, the reason police officers fear for their lives is because there's a legitimate threat and they are being killed. | ||
| But secondly, this is twisted beyond normal wrath. | ||
| There's something deeply psychologically wrong with this person. | ||
| This guy's a gross little creep. | ||
| I wouldn't trust him with a butter knife. | ||
| How could he have an elected position in the United States? | ||
| Gilbert and his wife should have to watch their fascist children die in their arms. | ||
| That's sick. | ||
| That's really sick. | ||
| It really is a sickness. | ||
| It's not just that he doesn't actually care. | ||
| And this is what I wrote my book about this, my anti-communist book. | ||
| I said, they actually aren't interested in justice or equality or any of these things. | ||
| This is what they want. | ||
| They actually do have this desire to see their opponents killed and their families killed. | ||
| And look, I'm going to say it. | ||
| If you thought that I was being, that I was, you know, talking a little bit too much, go look at the reaction to Charlie Kirk's murder. | ||
| Go look at the way this people celebrate and they say, well, what about right-wing violence? | ||
| I say, nobody on the right celebrates violence like this. | ||
| Nobody. | ||
| That's what happened. | ||
| Yeah, that's an argument that I make. | ||
| People like to go ahead and do the whataboutism. | ||
| I had a little rant the other day about people talking about Paul Pelosi. | ||
| Nobody on the right was saying, it's good that Paul Pelosi was attacked. | ||
| I'm glad he was attacked. | ||
| He was saying things that I really hate and I want to see whoever is the, you know, whatever next person in line. | ||
| They didn't celebrate it. | ||
| They did laugh at the circumstances. | ||
| They made jokes about the fact that he was in his underwear. | ||
| There was a bunch of rumors going around about the, you know, the context and the situation, but they weren't celebrating. | ||
| They weren't doing the same thing that the left did. | ||
| When the left found out or saw the video of Charlie getting killed, they were instantly celebrating. | ||
| They were saying, thank goodness, thank God, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| We're happy about this. | ||
| We want to see more of this. | ||
| And they started releasing lists of other people that they thought that should be next. | ||
| Present company included people like Tim. | ||
| Demons self-identified. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| And so this idea that the left and the right are comparable, it is absolutely fallacious. | ||
| It is absolutely not true. | ||
| The left has been an openly terrorist organization, at least, if you want to be charitable, at least since 2020, when they were rioting and burning down cities over what was basically a lie. | ||
| And also they have been using government, as in local district attorneys and local police departments and local judges to allow criminals to remain free and basically allowing these people to terrorize normal, good, hardworking Americans. | ||
| The silence from the left right now is truly shocking. | ||
| If you don't condemn it, you condone it. | ||
| They're not condemning that. | ||
| I'll tell you, I had not been announced for Senate for 24 hours before people started calling me fascist online. | ||
| My 10-year-old nephew said to my sister, said, I don't want Uncle Morgan to run for Senate because I don't want him to be killed. | ||
| He had seen the Charlie Kirk news. | ||
| And that has affected a whole generation of people. | ||
| It's chilling them out of, it's chilling them out of public service. | ||
| People don't want to go into public service. | ||
| People say to me all the time, I can't believe you're doing this. | ||
| I can't believe you're exposing yourself to it. | ||
| But I never thought I would expose my son or my family to this kind of rhetoric, this kind of planned violence. | ||
| I mean, you know, criminals, they imagine the violence before they commit it. | ||
| That's what's so frightening about his words. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's it. | |
| No, that's absolutely right. | ||
| And people try to pretend that there's this separation. | ||
| Things don't happen in the world that didn't first happen in the human heart. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| People will fixate on something and then they will eventually do it. | ||
| And when it comes to left-wing fantasies of harming children, whether of this variety or others, we're told by certain left-wing activists, firstly, tacitly by the people who are silent about this, but also about others who will try to argue that, oh, well, somebody thinking about something doesn't mean they're going to really go do it in real life. | ||
| If someone's an alcoholic, do you give them the advice that they should think about drinking all day? | ||
| Because that's going to be a good outlet to get them to stop drinking? | ||
| Obviously not. | ||
| The reason they say it's okay for people to quote unquote muse, which is the word one article used to describe this man fantasizing about these children dying, the reason that they say that it's okay for these people to muse about this is because, of course, they know what we know, that thoughts lead to actions and they want it to happen. | ||
| They want that to happen. | ||
| Guard your thoughts was thoughts become words and words become actions and actions become destiny and your character. | ||
| There are people that are on the supposedly moderate left that have said things like, there's a streamer named Destiny that said things like, look, we want to see conservatives afraid of dying if they go out and promote their political opinions. | ||
| So that way they will petition their leaders to tell them to turn the rhetoric down, to turn the temperature down, which is, on its face, that's a dumb thing, right? | ||
| We're going to endorse terrorism because terrorism works. | ||
| That's exactly what he's saying. | ||
| We want these people to be terrorized so that way they will tell their leaders that people like Donald Trump that they should not, they should do things to turn down the temperature. | ||
| We'll turn the temperature up in order to get them to turn down the temperature, which is historically a massively counterproductive effort, right? | ||
| People don't respond to terrorism by saying, especially on the levels that would be thought possible in the United States, right? | ||
| You're not going to get a massive terrorist attack or you're not going to get massive terrorism, amounts of terrorism out of the left nowadays. | ||
| And if you did, I mean, look what happened in 9-11. | ||
| Like we mobilized the entire country to respond to a terrorist attack that killed 3,000 people. | ||
| Like the idea that terrorism is going to produce the right, was going to cow the right and make the right say, no, we should tell our leaders to turn down the temperature. | ||
| That is an objectively stupid thing to think on its face. | ||
| That never happens. | ||
| Historically, that never happens. | ||
| But this is something that the people on the left, and again, this guy's supposedly a moderate, you know, on the moderate left. | ||
| He's not what you would consider a communist. | ||
| He's not what you would consider a socialist. | ||
| He talks about very, he believes in capitalism ostensibly and stuff, but he says things like this. | ||
| And that's something that you get on the left broadly nowadays, which is why you saw people celebrating. | ||
| And where are the calls for Jay Jones to tone down the rhetoric? | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| Where are the calls for a Democrat member, a guy who's running for, you know, on AG on a major party ticket? | ||
| He's the running mate of Abigail Spamberger. | ||
| You know, you have not heard anyone. | ||
| Anyway, now I will say MSNBC has called it. | ||
| All right. | ||
| But you don't hear, I'm not getting hit up by reporters saying, when are we going to, you know, Manu Rajo isn't running around Capitol Hill saying, well, are you going to, are you going to tone down the rhetoric? | ||
| Are you going to disavow? | ||
| Are you going to disavow? | ||
| Where is it? | ||
| Where are this? | ||
| Because when my friend was murdered, all right, three weeks ago. | ||
| And the very first thing I heard was, are you guys going to tone down the rhetoric? | ||
| I haven't even said anything. | ||
| I haven't even said a word. | ||
| It's disgusting. | ||
| Why aren't you guys going to tone down the rhetoric? | ||
| I said, well, first of all, my friend's in a box. | ||
| There are bullets flying. | ||
| One of them hit him. | ||
| And there's bullets flying at ICE agents. | ||
| And the media's first response is to ask the right to tone down rhetoric when we are the ones who are catching bullets all of a sudden. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They literally said, will this terrorist attack work? | |
| That's what they're saying. | ||
| Yeah, you're right. | ||
| They're projecting. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| They're always projecting, like we were saying earlier. | ||
| And some people have told me it only exists on the fringes of the left. | ||
| And I'm like, I think there's a, we're experiencing sustained, widespread political bloodlust across the whole base. | ||
| I was in New York when Butler happened. | ||
| And I was at like a family function. | ||
| Some old friends will say this one in particular, ex-friend, said, too bad Trump didn't get it, right? | ||
| My mother-in-law was in Manhattan when Charlie was executed. | ||
| And she found out because someone said, thank God, on the street, on the sidewalk. | ||
| These people feel open to be that bloodthirsty. | ||
| And these people aren't talking out against it because they all kind of feel that way. | ||
| This guy is not unique to him. | ||
| They all feel this. | ||
| It's our last resort is violence. | ||
| And I think there's far too many. | ||
| We saw the celebration of the death of Charlie Kirk. | ||
| Is Jay Jones in elected office now? | ||
| Is he no, but I mean, is he like a state, you know, state delegate? | ||
| Because they said he was in the state delegation. | ||
| Attorneys, he, okay, he's a former. | ||
| Yeah, he's a former member of the House of Delegates from 2018. | ||
| I can't even look at his face. | ||
| I can't even look at his face. | ||
| So he had just gotten out. | ||
| He had just gotten out of the Virginia House of Delegates when he sent these messages. | ||
| And apparently he was sending it to a friend that thought would share, that he would, you know, perhaps share her beliefs. | ||
| And then he starts calling her and berating her. | ||
| But this speaks to what you were just saying, Shane. | ||
| Why would he think that someone else would be open to hearing that? | ||
| Probably because a lot of people on his side of the political aisle have been. | ||
| He was probably surprised by the fact that someone was upset by it. | ||
| Look, you see these people in D.C. Morgan, you've been to D.C. You know how it's like. | ||
| I'll never forget, by the way, of all the text messages, and this will line up to our next story, of all the text messages between Lisa Strzok, or excuse me, Lisa Page and Peter Strzzok, the one that always stands out with me is the one that talks about how all of DC just looks down on middle America and just hates middle America. | ||
| And they said, you can smell the Walmart on Trump supporters. | ||
| You can smell the Walmart on them. | ||
| And that is that elitist bubble in which all these people live, that they think we are better. | ||
| We are the anointed ones. | ||
| We are the best. | ||
| And all you hicks, all you inbred, gullible losers stuck in the middle of the country. | ||
| The bitter clingers that Barack Obama said. | ||
| The great unifier, Barack Obama. | ||
| All of his memorable quotes were just nasty, horrible things he said, but he wasn't as funny when he said them as Trump was. | ||
| It just kind of came off as bitchy and sad. | ||
| Look at the timeline of the invective, though. | ||
| Look at where we started under. | ||
| Look at where we started under Barack Obama and where we are now, right? | ||
| We've gone from clinging to their guns and their Bibles, and then we've got into their fascists and their authoritarians. | ||
| And now they're just simply, let's just kill them. | ||
| Yep. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| That's what happens when you say literally Hitler for eight years. | ||
| And you say it over and over and over. | ||
| So as horrific as that is, unfortunately, that's where we're at, where not only are we seeing the violence, not are we seeing the open rebellion, we're also seeing these statements being made by a major party candidate for an extremely powerful office, by the way, and no pushback, no pushback from his own party. | ||
| But let's talk about what they do when they actually do get into power. | ||
| And then, of course, they lie about it so much that we can barely find out information. | ||
| Our next story, story three here, breaking, and this was really just breaking as soon as we came into the show today, tonight. | ||
| So we haven't all had a huge chance to get into it, but I think we'll understand it because unfortunately it's something we've been talking about for a long time now. | ||
| Biden's FBI was spying on Republican senators under the Arctic Frost investigation. | ||
| Senator Grassley has come out and put out this information. | ||
| I believe there's a statement now as well from Dan Bongino. | ||
| And Senator Grassley put this out, released a document on X showing the FBI conducted surveillance on eight Republican senators part of an investigation called Arctic Frost. | ||
| Now, this is the same investigation that targeted our organization, TPUSA, in the wake of January 6th. | ||
| Grassley wrote, this document shows the FBI spied on eight of my Republican Senate colleagues during the Arctic Frost investigation to, quote, election conspiracy. | ||
| Arctic Frost later became Jack Smith's elector case against Trump. | ||
| Biden FBI weaponization equals worse than Watergate. | ||
| This is what Morgan was referring to earlier. | ||
| And let's go down the list. | ||
| So an FBI special agent conducted a preliminary toll analysis on limited toll records associated with the following U.S. senators. | ||
| So they're talking about specific phones in this case. | ||
| Senator Mike Kelly, Senator Lindsey Graham, Bill Haggerty, Josh Hawley, Dan Sullivan, Tommy Tuberville, Ron Johnson, Cynthia Loomis, and Marsha Blackburn. | ||
| Morgan, you worked for Senator Tuberville. | ||
| What's going on here? | ||
| I was there during this period. | ||
| I mean, they're flat out trying to stop people. | ||
| So under the two-hop rule, your phone was probably hit caught up in this as well. | ||
| Well, absolutely. | ||
| It was absolutely caught up in it. | ||
| They hated him. | ||
| They hate him. | ||
| The established, the blob, as I call it in Washington, and it is the uniparty blob, cannot stand people like Tommy Tuberville because they can't control him and because he's off script. | ||
| And they cannot stand that. | ||
| And so that's why they went after him. | ||
| And it's disgusting to me to see our own government going after elected officials. | ||
| He holds the election certificate. | ||
| He was elected by six and a half million people in the state of Alabama to represent them in the halls of Congress in the U.S. Senate. | ||
| And here they're spying on him? | ||
| What are they trying to get exactly? | ||
| Power. | ||
| This reminds me of COINTELPRO. | ||
| Right? | ||
| I mean, the government spied on different organizations, obviously ones I don't agree with, but still they spied on him. | ||
| And that led to assassinations. | ||
| And that was a horrible thing. | ||
| You're using the apparatus of government at the highest level at the FBI, at the CIA, at the IRS, all of the three-letter agencies to harass and dig dirt on Republicans. | ||
| It just cuts one way. | ||
| It's worth noting that just about an hour ago, Senate Majority Leader Thune Mentioned or he tweeted, he said, I have grave concerns about a new report showing that the Biden-era FBI spied on Republican senators, and I fully support Senate committees getting to the bottom of this outrageous abuse of power and weaponization of the government. | ||
| That was also retweeted by Harmy Dylan, the assistant attorney general. | ||
| So it is a positive step, or at least I think that it's a positive step, that the a lot of the people in D.C., people in the DOJ and in the Senate, they're paying attention to this. | ||
| And it looks like this isn't going to be something that just gets swept into the country. | ||
| We've got to root them out. | ||
| We have got to root them out. | ||
| And we don't have a lot of time to do it. | ||
| We're going to change the country if we do not root this kind of corruption out of our government. | ||
| Cash Patel was also tweeting about it as well. | ||
| So like I said, it's obviously not a guarantee that something's going to be done, but at least the right people are aware of it and making it known. | ||
| So I do look forward to some kind of hearings on Capitol Hill. | ||
| And I mean, there should be an investigation by the DOJ. | ||
| It has to be ordered by the president. | ||
| And I believe he's going to do it. | ||
| I believe he's going to. | ||
| I work for Kash Patel. | ||
| That's a guy that's not going to back down. | ||
| He's going to chase it out. | ||
| But we've got to support them because they have declared war on us and they've said very clearly what they want to do. | ||
| The Democrats have said, we're going to pack the Supreme Court. | ||
| We're going to get rid of the filibuster. | ||
| We're going to make D.C. and Puerto Rico a state. | ||
| We're going to stuff the Senate. | ||
| We're going to write law from the Oval Office and never mind Congress. | ||
| And then we're going to use all of the tools of government so that you never win an election again. | ||
| So this is why I keep saying to all those people that come out there and say, well, hold on, guys. | ||
| If we do something, what's to stop the left from using it against us? | ||
| What's to stop the left? | ||
| I say, guys. | ||
| They're using it. | ||
| Just look. | ||
| They had four years. | ||
| They had four years of power, and what did they do with it? | ||
| What have they not used it? | ||
| They were using it to, they were using it to round up Patriots, 1,600 of them, after Gen 6. | ||
| They didn't care if you were throwing punches or just walking around peacefully or praying on the steps of the Capitol. | ||
| You didn't even have to go to the Capitol. | ||
| Some of the Gen 6ers were arrested who hadn't even gone to the Capitol complex. | ||
| And then what did they do? | ||
| They went a step further. | ||
| Who did they launch investigations into? | ||
| Charlie Kirk, Turning Point USA, as well as 92 other Republican groups and individuals were placed under scrutiny. | ||
| I'm sure, you know, probably like all of us in the room. | ||
| And now we're finding that in Arctic Frost, this massive sweeping operation included eight sitting U.S. senators. | ||
| This is like when East Germany fell and the Stasi records became, do you guys know about this? | ||
| That when the Stasi records became available for public view, you could go to the East German secret police headquarters and request to see your file. | ||
| And if you ever go watch this movie, massive shout out. | ||
| You absolutely have to see it. | ||
| It's called The Lives of Others. | ||
| I watch it every couple of years. | ||
| The Lives of Others is the greatest movie on communism that has ever been made. | ||
| And it is told through the eyes of a German secret police agent as he's conducting surveillance on this guy who's a playwright that he's worried is putting anti-communist messaging into his plays and his girlfriend who is also like the leading lady in the plays and the way that the party and the manipulation and everything that goes on, but it's all through us watching through little cameras and listening on the headphones the entire time. | ||
| And at the very end, the guy goes to request his own file and then says, oh my gosh, all of these things that I thought were just random occurrences. | ||
| It was all an intelligence operation that was being run against me and these horrible things that were going on in my life. | ||
| And it's obviously based on so many true stories, but this is what happens. | ||
| And we saw this during COVID. | ||
| So let's go back a little bit. | ||
| People say, where does this come from? | ||
| And yeah, there's philosophy. | ||
| And yes, it comes from the 60s. | ||
| But I think there's something in human nature as well. | ||
| And I want to ask you about this, Seamus. | ||
| There's something in human nature, and we saw it come out during COVID that people love having power over another. | ||
| And you remember the snitches and the snitch lines in the UK and some states, Tim Waltz was doing this. | ||
| The snitch lines, oh, I can't wait to snitch on my neighbor. | ||
| What is that about human nature, Seamus? | ||
| So there's something about us as humans, which is just constantly trying to drag us to hell. | ||
| We do have a fallen nature. | ||
| There is goodness in humans. | ||
| There's good things about us, but there is a woundedness that we carry with us because of our first parents. | ||
| And I believe it was Chesterton who said this: that original sin is the most controversial but best evidenced Christian belief. | ||
| If you just look at the world and history and how it's operated, you're like, there's something wrong with these people, right? | ||
| Everyone isn't like this, you know, perfect person as Rousseau would say that we are corrupted by society. | ||
| The truth is, we like power. | ||
| We're prideful creatures. | ||
| We believe that we are God. | ||
| We're constantly trying to make ourselves gods. | ||
| There's a great quote from Fulton Sheen. | ||
| He said, I'm going to butcher this, so forgive the paraphrasing, but he said, it now comes down to those who believe God became man and those who believe man will become God. | ||
| Charlie was a huge Fulton Sheen guy. | ||
| Charlie and I were always saying, Charlie would tell me that he said, Jack, you know what I'm doing today? | ||
| I said, what? | ||
| He goes, I've just got Fulton Sheen and he's on repeat. | ||
| God bless him. | ||
| I've got the long clips on YouTube and just watching Fulton Sheen over and over and over. | ||
| I said, man, there's a Catholic. | ||
| You can put it. | ||
| He's number one show in America. | ||
| But when he was on TV, number one show. | ||
| And you're right. | ||
| There's something about the fallen nature. | ||
| There's something about people wanting that power. | ||
| They say pride was the first sin. | ||
| And I think there's something when you see this and it gets unlocked when you give those types of people absolute power. | ||
| And we saw it with Merrick Garland. | ||
| We're seeing it with Jack Smith and we saw it in East Germany. | ||
| It's the same exact part of human nature that goes all the way down to even the very lower levels. | ||
| And what did we see? | ||
| What else do we see after Jan 6? | ||
| We saw family members turning in their own relatives. | ||
| Yeah, go ahead, go ahead. | ||
| Well, the idea of going no contact, that's something you hear from the left all the time, right? | ||
| If you have a family member that is in somehow upsetting you and politically has an opinion that you don't like, or yeah, they just stop, you know, break off the connection. | ||
| That's the kind of thing that cults do, right? | ||
| Like you should be able to reconcile or deal with the fact that your family is going to have different opinions to you, and it's perfectly fine to disagree because there's still family. | ||
| The left behaves like a cult. | ||
| And I don't want to get into the specific definition of cult and stuff like that. | ||
| But when you have a group of people telling you that you should break off contact with your family because they disagree with you, they are not your friend because they will kick you to the curb the instant that you do something that they disagree with. | ||
| Your family is probably not going to do that. | ||
| Dude, my grandma lived with me when she was dying of leukemia. | ||
| And word got out that I didn't think J6 was so bad. | ||
| Oh my God. | ||
| And a family member had to come by and had this. | ||
| I walked in on a secret little meeting. | ||
| He was having a struggle session with my poor grandma dying of leukemia. | ||
| Basically, calling me an insurrectionist for not condemning J6 and thinking it was as bad as 9-11 or Pearl Harbor. | ||
| It was wild. | ||
| Oh, listen, I was in the Secretary of Defense's office on J6, standing next to the Secretary of Defense, listening to the calls that came in. | ||
| And I would tell people at home, like, yeah, Nancy Pelosi called in, and was she terrified? | ||
| No. | ||
| What did she want? | ||
| She wanted a sandwich. | ||
| She said she was hungry. | ||
| She wanted the Department of Defense to deliver her food like we were Uber Eats. | ||
| And liberal friends of mine are saying, you're making that up. | ||
| That's not true. | ||
| Same lady who got her hair done during COVID, right? | ||
| In lockdown. | ||
| Right. | ||
| It adds up. | ||
| I don't know if he coined the term, but he might have. | ||
| But John Doyle talks about a theater kid occupied government. | ||
| Yeah, I've seen this. | ||
| I've seen this a few times. | ||
| You can totally see that with these people. | ||
| Like, I was there and I almost died. | ||
| It was horrifying. | ||
| Do I need to break out? | ||
| So when AOC claimed what she claimed on January 6th, I actually threw up a map break and I drew a map of where the Capitol is and how far away her office is from any of the things that were actually taking place. | ||
| For example, you could be on the other side of the Capitol and not know that there was anything taking place that was untoured on the, I guess that would be the west side of the Capitol. | ||
| If you're on the east side, you would have no idea. | ||
| You have no idea whatsoever. | ||
| And how do I know this? | ||
| Because I was coming down Capitol Hill that morning, or I should say, roughly around that afternoon. | ||
| It started in the morning. | ||
| We were watching Trump speech. | ||
| I was there with Raheem Kassam. | ||
| We're coming down the hill. | ||
| And at first, it's just, hey, it seems like there's a lot of guys in red hats over there. | ||
| Yeah, I see. | ||
| And then what did we see? | ||
| A peaceful crowd. | ||
| Now, they were on the steps, to be sure, but they were peaceful right up until the point where the Capitol Police threw flashbangs into the crowd. | ||
| That is what set off the violence that day. | ||
| It was the response to this, which was totally a break with the rules of engagement. | ||
| There were no calls to disperse. | ||
| There were no loudspeakers used. | ||
| There was nothing like that. | ||
| They threw flashbangs into a peaceful crowd. | ||
| And I will always remember that because I saw it with my bare eyes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But, Jack, there were no federal agents at 275. | |
| Well, this is the other thing. | ||
| I remember we had just finished the summer of unhinged leftist rioting, where billions of dollars in damage was caused and anywhere between 20 and 30 people died, depending on the numbers you're looking at. | ||
| Billions. | ||
| Raised. | ||
| Yes, billions. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Raised for BLM. | ||
| Many homes were destroyed. | ||
| Many businesses were destroyed. | ||
| And what were we told? | ||
| We were told, well, you know, rioting is the language of the unheard. | ||
| And then on January 6th, they went, you know, why these people are rioting? | ||
| Because we're listening to them too much. | ||
| We need to make sure. | ||
| And so they said, rioting's the language of the unheard when the left was rioting. | ||
| And then when the right had a riot that was instigated by feds, they went, well, the only way to stop this from happening further is to ensure that they're totally unheard forever. | ||
| They banned them from every platform. | ||
| They started throwing people in prison. | ||
| We put 25,000 troops at the Capitol. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So get into my office by 25,000 troops. | ||
| By some context, there were 2,500 troops in Afghanistan. | ||
| Nancy put 25,000. | ||
| Oh, my gosh. | ||
| I'm surprised Biden didn't leave the building. | ||
| You know, it's a public building. | ||
| The Capitol is a public building. | ||
| You can go walk in it today. | ||
| Anybody can go walk in the Capitol. | ||
| And I suggest you do. | ||
| It's a public building. | ||
| And it was not opened back up until Republicans were back in charge of the House and Senate. | ||
| It was shut down. | ||
| And that's the way the left wanted it. | ||
| They didn't want the smelly Walmart people coming to visit the Capitol, coming to visit their offices. | ||
| They didn't want them in there. | ||
| And J6 was a great excuse to keep them out. | ||
| To Seamus' point, again, what they said didn't have meaning. | ||
| It was all about exercising power. | ||
| They don't, there's no, you can't call them hypocrites because they don't have principles in the first place. | ||
| One of the things that I'm seeing a lot now is like when you're like, oh, you know, we have to worry about the fact that there are terrorists that want to terrorize Americans for their political beliefs. | ||
| They want to use violence to get Americans to change their political beliefs. | ||
| And then the left will say things like, oh, now you're not pro-free speech. | ||
| Now you're hypocrites, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| You don't have principles. | ||
| The fact of the matter is, this is another. | ||
| exercise of power and it has nothing to do with what they believe because they don't believe in free speech. | ||
| They don't believe in any of the things that they will assert. | ||
| And we've seen it for the past decade. | ||
| So when they go to, you know, when they find conservatives or they assert that conservatives are hypocrites, ignore them. | ||
| Ignore them. | ||
| We have the House, the Senate, and the presidency, even if only slim margins. | ||
| The government should be using every bit of legitimate power that it has to put the terrorist threat away. | ||
| Put these people in jail. | ||
| If they're making terroristic threats, if they're aiding terrorists, if they're engaging in violence against police, put them in jail for a long, long time. | ||
| Every legitimate use of power that the government can engage in, they should be. | ||
| Phil, you're calling for justice. | ||
| I am. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| You mentioned about hypocrisy. | ||
| I just want to point this out. | ||
| The people who level accusations of hypocrisy the most tend to be those who don't actually believe in anything. | ||
| So it's really easy for them to say you're not living up to their beliefs because their beliefs are I should get to do whatever I want all the time. | ||
| It's like, well, you are very principled, I suppose. | ||
| Yeah, the morality is fixed to a weather vane. | ||
| It's never one way. | ||
| There's no center to it. | ||
| It's like it's easy to not be hypocritical when your perspective changes literally the second popular morality does. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| So I don't think that there is any legitimate argument that the left can possibly make against this, seeing as they've not only used every bit of legitimate government power, but it seems, if you go by what Chuck Rasley was saying, it seems that they've actually even gone and violated the law in an effort to keep their own political power. | ||
| So I'm not worried about the things that the left accuses me of or anyone else on the right of. | ||
| Those days are gone. | ||
| Now we're in a position. | ||
| I think that's in like 2015. | ||
| They accused us of being racist and fascist and authoritarian and everything else. | ||
| And eventually it's like the boy who cried wolf, right? | ||
| Just tired. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| And then they started mixing things up. | ||
| They're like, they're Russians. | ||
| We're like, what? | ||
| You ran out of everything else and now we're Russians? | ||
| Come on, dude. | ||
| Go back to the lab and write better material. | ||
| It's ridiculous. | ||
| A little Putin bootlicker. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| So speaking of this, all right, we've got to get, we're talking about pop culture. | ||
| We're talking about all this, guys. | ||
| I hate to have to do this, but we're doing it. | ||
| We got to talk about Bad Bunny. | ||
| We got to talk about Bad Bunny. | ||
| Why are you doing this to us? | ||
| Because I have a contractual obligation to make us suffer. | ||
| Yes, actually, Tim, that was the one. | ||
| I knew it. | ||
| That was the one piece of advice that Tim said, Jack, just make sure you had them all in pain as much as possible. | ||
| And so Bad Bunny, I guess, was on SNL, which is apparently some kind of television show this weekend. | ||
| And so Bad Bunny is this performer who is incredibly anti-ICE. | ||
| He's been anti-U.S. | ||
| government. | ||
| He said that he will not perform in the United States while ICE is conducting operations. | ||
| However, he's been tapped to be the Super Bowl halftime show because Jay-Z runs the entire Super Bowl halftime show, an exclusive contract that he has with the NFL, which is a product of the 2020 situation because of the George Floyd situation, BLM riots. | ||
| They said, okay, we're going to sign over all of this to Jay-Z, the best friend of Barack Obama and Michelle Obama, Beyonce. | ||
| And he now has full reign over the Super Bowl halftime show, I think until 2026 or maybe even 2029. | ||
| And so why are they putting someone like Bad Bunny in? | ||
| It's a corporate decision. | ||
| Now, Tim and I talked about this the other night, but it's because Bad Bunny is the top-streamed artist, but only among people who speak Spanish. | ||
| So he's a very niche artist when it comes to the widespread United States market. | ||
| But of course, they're trying to put him in everything they can. | ||
| And how do I know this? | ||
| They made the same guy, the caddy, in Happy Gilmore 2, was also played by Bad Bunny. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Really? | |
| The exact same guy. | ||
| And I remember watching the movie and thinking, you know what? | ||
| There were parts of it that actually made me laugh. | ||
| I'm not going to lie, there were. | ||
| But no, it was very schlocky. | ||
| But for some reason, they just randomly, Netflix has this corporate insertion. | ||
| And of course, we know that the Obamas are also very close with Netflix, millions of dollars in that contract. | ||
| Suddenly, Bad Bunny shows up and has this just tons of screen time alongside Adam Sandler when no one's heard of this guy if you speak English. | ||
| And this has really come down to be the great sort of discerning factor on Bad Bunny. | ||
| So he mentions this as well on SNL. | ||
| And I'm going to play the clip here for you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm very excited to be doing the Super Bowl. | |
| And I know that people all around the world who love my music are also happy. | ||
| Especially todo Latino. | ||
| Those people are just anti-Latino y la Latina en el mundantero y aquí en lo estados unido tor persona quantra vajado para abril pueltas. | ||
| Más unloromío. | ||
| Más con lo romión un lo de todo. | ||
| Temo trando que no estraway eno transportación este paí nadi en uncara poraza cal nigoran. | ||
| And if you didn't understand what I just said, you have four months to learn. | ||
| We have a great job. | ||
| It'd be great if Ice came in and took him. | ||
| Yeah, I know, right? | ||
| He's Puerto Rican. | ||
| He's American. | ||
| I don't care. | ||
| But he take him anyway. | ||
| Yeah, I know, right? | ||
| I'm extending the Spanish speaker. | ||
| I want to just play another quick clip here. | ||
| Whoopi Goldberg gets in on this as well. | ||
| Threatening to gut up all this tailing to the Super Bowl or Taylor Swift or any other white person. | ||
| Understand what you're saying because she's going to go to the Super Bowl and round up. | ||
| How's she going to know who's who? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| Because the Supreme Court has given permission to question anyone who has a Spanish accent or has a dark skin. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So here's why. | ||
| Here's the thing. | ||
| Everybody get a little cocoa butter, set in the sun. | ||
| That's the first thing. | ||
| And then, and this is the only time you can probably ever do this. | ||
| Give yourself a Latin accent. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know, Whoopi, that is such a good idea. | |
| And seeing if she can tell who's who. | ||
| So Whoopi Goldberg is saying that everyone should, all the white people should go to the Super Bowl in brown face with a Latin accent to mess with ICE. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| All right. | ||
| Let me point out what they're both doing here. | ||
| They're being as divisive as possible on purpose. | ||
| They are setting us up to, and this is what Pete Hegseth was talking about. | ||
| And I was there for a speech yesterday. | ||
| He said, diversity isn't our strength, unity is. | ||
| I think that's so important because they're actively telling you: okay, if you speak English, if your skin is too pale, then there's something wrong with you. | ||
| You need to change. | ||
| You American, who's been speaking English since America was founded, since 1776. | ||
| There's something wrong with you. | ||
| And we are correct. | ||
| We are ascendant. | ||
| We are the ones who have the cultural identity, the cultural power, the cultural imperialism. | ||
| So we are going to reverse cultural imperialize you. | ||
| That's what they're doing with the Super Bowl. | ||
| And this comes on the heels of, of course, what we already have the black national anthem, right, that is played. | ||
| And we'll see if it's played at this Super Bowl. | ||
| I believe it was played for the last couple of years now. | ||
| And when you have these things, you know, and that go on at a massive cultural touchstone moment, like the Super Bowl, which is supposed to bring us all together, right? | ||
| You know, you could root for different teams, but we're all together in the sense that we're all American. | ||
| Coach Tarbuel, of course, knows a little something about competition and playing together, but also you maintain that we're all the same under the red, white, and blue, the stars and stripes. | ||
| It is crap like this that they are trying to pit us all against each other. | ||
| And, you know, these guys talk about civil war, and it's like they keep throwing fuel on the fire. | ||
| Turn down the rhetoric, and then you get stuff like this. | ||
| Yeah, look, it's just racism, first off, right? | ||
| That's all that it is. | ||
| I don't get into this conversation a whole lot because I don't like to sound like I'm trying to make myself or people like me a victim. | ||
| But the point of this is just anti-white and anti-American, honestly. | ||
| Marxism. | ||
| Yeah, it is. | ||
| It is. | ||
| But Marxism, this is the tool that they're using at this time because, you know, Mark Hughes said in One Dimensional Man, he said that the revolutionary energy is no longer with the working classes because capitalism delivers the goods, right? | ||
| He said that capitalism can provide not just the things that you need, but it provides a good life. | ||
| So we have to look elsewhere for the revolutionary energy. | ||
| And he said that, you know, you have to look to, he said, you have to look to the, to basically to the minority populations, to black, Latinos, black and brown people, as the left would say today. | ||
| And so what this is actually fomenting is a way to induce a revolution. | ||
| You know, it is, you're right, it is Marxism. | ||
| And the point is to separate us. | ||
| The point is to awaken a critical racial consciousness. | ||
| Now, everyone talked about the idea of critical race theory. | ||
| The point of critical race theory is to awaken a critical racial consciousness, right? | ||
| So get away from the idea of a melting pot and that we're all Americans. | ||
| Like at a salad bowl. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So you want to see the things that make us different, right? | ||
| That's what the left wants to do. | ||
| And then by the way, you know what they'll say next? | ||
| They will say, oh, well, every other performer, you know, I don't know, Shakira or whatever, you know, we've had English Super Bowl halftime shows this many times. | ||
| So how many? | ||
| And then they start counting it. | ||
| But then they start counting it and quantifying it and see, say, see, you guys have had this many. | ||
| We just want one. | ||
| We just want one. | ||
| Well, but you don't get any what they're actually doing. | ||
| You don't get any because this is America. | ||
| Most Americans speak English. | ||
| The United States should actually, Congress should pass a law that says that in the United States, English is our national language. | ||
| And then the United States should stop making any kind of paperwork, anything in any other language. | ||
| No more going to the DMV and deciding whether you want Spanish or Chinese or what have you language. | ||
| If you go to an official government bureaucracy, everything's in English. | ||
| I can think of another. | ||
| Sponsor that bill. | ||
| I would have another place, not just the DMV, where we need only English. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Everywhere. | |
| A very special place that we go every four years. | ||
| Yeah, to the ballot box. | ||
| Sometimes every two years, right? | ||
| The ballot box. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely. | |
| If you can't speak English or read in English, why are you voting? | ||
| And this shouldn't be, and the reason that we should do this is because context matters when you're trying to communicate. | ||
| And if you don't speak the same language, you actually have a more difficult time understanding each other. | ||
| Oh my gosh, I know. | ||
| So it's perfectly fine for people to speak other languages at home if they want. | ||
| But when it comes to engaging in the United States, engaging with the public in the United States, there should only be one language spoken. | ||
| And it should be government-mandated. | ||
| Could you imagine this happening in like Japan? | ||
| Well, they're trying. | ||
| Oh, my gosh, they're so mad that Japan is for the Japanese. | ||
| That infuriates them. | ||
| Why do they get an island? | ||
| They just elected the most right-wing prime minister they've had in ages. | ||
| She doesn't believe that the emperor should be a female. | ||
| She's very much in line with what Shinzo Abe was like. | ||
| And I think it's a great thing. | ||
| She believes that Japan should be for the Japanese. | ||
| And I think that the world would lose a massive treasure if Japan stopped being Japan. | ||
| And why is it that we can say that for Japan, but you can't say that for the United States? | ||
| Because the U.S. is a place where people have come from Europe. | ||
| There are countries that really, whether or not, and again, whether or not you agree about what the U.S. should be, the U.S. didn't, the people that are from, that were like the original, I guess, people that lived here, this place was colonized. | ||
| Settlers, the pioneers. | ||
| Settlers and the settler spirit. | ||
| The U.S. is a belief system. | ||
| It's perfectly important. | ||
| It unites us as a belief system, not a race, not a religion. | ||
| That's what sets us apart. | ||
| We could live in Japan all our lives and never be Japanese. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| I live in France all my lives. | ||
| I speak Chinese. | ||
| I speak Chinese. | ||
| I spent two years there. | ||
| Guess what? | ||
| I ain't Chinese. | ||
| I ain't going to be. | ||
| Dude, there are people who spend way, way more than two years in the United States and don't learn to speak English. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Exactly. | |
| By the way, have you seen any of the, I've yet to see one, and I keep saying this, when, you know, an ICE video that's come out of one of these raids where the guy is speaking, and a lot goes up and covers these. | ||
| Show me one where the guy is speaking English. | ||
| Show me one. | ||
| And they're always like, oh, he's been here 20 years. | ||
| He hasn't broken any laws. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let him say. | |
| And they're not speaking English. | ||
| They're actually not, you mentioned the salad bowl, right? | ||
| They don't want to assimilate. | ||
| They're not trying to be the melting pot. | ||
| Whereas like when my family came over from Poland, the very first generation, they said, don't speak Polish. | ||
| You're going to learn English. | ||
| And you hear that with so many immigrant groups. | ||
| And they'll say, did you ever speak Polish? | ||
| No, my grandparents never taught me Polish. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because my mom and dad would say, you're going to speak English. | ||
| And we want you to assimilate. | ||
| You have people, of course, a history of people changing names, a history of people anglicizing things who are coming from different parts of the world. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because they want you to assimilate. | ||
| I was in Poland a month ago, by the way. | ||
| Based place, man. | ||
| They have kept. | ||
| Were you at the inauguration? | ||
| No, I was going through, passing through on the way to Ukraine. | ||
| Okay, no, I was, oh, right, sure, sure, sure. | ||
| Don and Jezhov. | ||
| So I was there for the inauguration, and then I went over through Ukraine with Secretary Besson on that trip. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Was that the trip where they were on the train? | ||
| Oh, I was on the train the whole time. | ||
| I'm thinking the wheels were going to fall off of that thing. | ||
| It's like a Soviet-era train. | ||
| It's like a chicken train. | ||
| And I have never, it was 12 hours, too. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Each way. | |
| Yeah, each way. | ||
| I can sleep through a lot, but that train, I really did think we were going to leave the track several times. | ||
| I remember sitting, and then there's that presidential car at the rear, and we were in there, and we go to see the secretary, and I'm with the Secretary of Treasury, and we're trying to get the mineral deal. | ||
| This was back when the mineral deal was in March. | ||
| And that was February, actually. | ||
| And so I remember and they said, oh, this is the same car that Joe Biden had when going over. | ||
| And I said, sanitize it. | ||
| And I said, well, no, I said, and then I said, Jake Sullivan was here. | ||
| I said, really? | ||
| Jake Sullivan was here? | ||
| I said, yeah. | ||
| What seat did he sit on? | ||
| They said, I think Jake was in that seat. | ||
| Sorry, I'm going to sit over here. | ||
| Good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That was good. | |
| I know. | ||
| I said, all right, guys, look, we don't want to divide the country. | ||
| We want the country to unite. | ||
| Ban Bunny is being deliberately divisive. | ||
| He's being overtly so. | ||
| That's what Jay-Z is about. | ||
| That's what Barack Obama has been about since the very first day that he began. | ||
| Shane, do you have to run or are you good? | ||
| I'm about to run. | ||
| I just want to say I'm calling on Jay-Z to have Gwar play. | ||
| Oh, God. | ||
| Halftime show. | ||
| I think it'll be great. | ||
| You're like, forget offending half the country. | ||
| Offend all. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Exactly. | |
| Hunting cool opportunity. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| It'll be fun. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I'm going to run and get ready for my show. | ||
| We'll be live at 10 o'clock on Rumble and YouTube, Inverto World Live. | ||
| Hopefully, Joe Exotic calls in. | ||
| We'll see what prison allows. | ||
| He confirmed yesterday, but the Tiger King himself. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Well, guys, while we're here, I want to get to some of these great super chats. | ||
| Love you, dude. | ||
| Because we have some really, really good ones. | ||
| There were a few that I wanted to get to early on because they were two in specific that right here. | ||
| We go. | ||
| All right. | ||
| And Morgan, you may not know this as your first-time guest, but there is a tradition on Timcast IRL that we are going to uphold right now. | ||
| I'm ready. | ||
| This one comes in. | ||
| As is tradition, please welcome our daughter, Lila Michelle, born Saturday at 4.05 p.m., headed to the NICU soon. | ||
| So I hope everything's okay there. | ||
| Wish us well and pray for our family. | ||
| So we are, that's from Mike. | ||
| We are praying for you and Lila and the whole family. | ||
| We hope everything goes well. | ||
| Hopefully the NICU is just a routine thing. | ||
| You won't spend much time there. | ||
| Get her home very, very soon. | ||
| Have more too. | ||
| And have more. | ||
| And by the way, we have another one in the same vein. | ||
| And Morgan, you're going to love this because this is from Tyler. | ||
| He says, I'm messaging as I wait for the birth of my baby. | ||
| Wonderful. | ||
| Pray for baby Titus Gray as I wish to bring him up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. | ||
| Thank you, Mr. Murphy, for your service to our state. | ||
| It must be LA. | ||
| Congrats. | ||
| That is awesome. | ||
| That's a wonderful thing to hear. | ||
| This is great. | ||
| Nurture and admonition of the Lord. | ||
| That's a lovely phrase. | ||
| And so we've got it in. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| Seamus, since I, this is from Raymond G. Stanley. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hey. | |
| Seamus, since I started working here, part of my job has been to put things where they belong. | ||
| We had to buy a full set of spoons, only spoons. | ||
| Why? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| Maybe I can explore a concept like that on the new show. | ||
| I'm launching Twisted Plots. | ||
| It's going to be a fun animated anthology series. | ||
| We're almost to 10% of our budget raised. | ||
| If you guys want to go over to twistedplots.com and watch our 25-minute pilot. | ||
| Awesome. | ||
| Seamus, why are there so many spoon comments about you? | ||
| I don't know why people say these kinds of things. | ||
| If I had a dollar for every spoon comment, Twisted Plots would be funded by this point. | ||
| I like those little spoons like my great-grandmother did that, you know, from each country you visit or city. | ||
| So, no, basically, there was an ugly bit of spoon man. | ||
| They're referring to you as spoon man. | ||
| There was an ugly bit of yellow journalism from one Tim Poole who lobbed a false accusation at me. | ||
| And I won't even get into the xenophobic undertones, but he claimed that there was a person of Irish descent under his house who would steal spoons. | ||
| Buckrakin journalism. | ||
| Yeah, which I personally found very offensive. | ||
| All right. | ||
| There's so many. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Aren't you the guy who has a horde of silver spoons under your house? | ||
| Some of us weren't born with one in our mouth. | ||
| We had to go get them. | ||
| Not that I did. | ||
| I would never do that. | ||
| Welcome back to me. | ||
| I would never do something. | ||
| Welcome back. | ||
| Amazing. | ||
| Amazing. | ||
| Here you go. | ||
| Brother, I'm from Idaho. | ||
| I know a potato when I see one. | ||
| And then there's just a series of spoon emojis. | ||
| I come on this show and everyone just bullies me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Yes. | ||
| I come here and everyone bullies me. | ||
| Guys, I'm trying to get this show funded to build culture. | ||
| Please be nice to me and go to twistedplots.com. | ||
| Please donate. | ||
| We're going to make something awesome. | ||
| We've got one from Bernie Kazori. | ||
| And a lot of these are just comments, but I like this one. | ||
| It says, we need a three-hour episode of Pop Culture Crisis on the Weather Underground. | ||
| There's a few channels who have covered them. | ||
| More recent Okie's Weird Stories. | ||
| People are mentioning different books on the Weather Underground. | ||
| But again, Seamus, there is yet to be any actual scripted media content depicting the Weather Underground. | ||
| I know I've been a little bit tongue-in-cheek, but the reality is part of why I'm trying to step into longer form content is because the goal is eventually to start making films. | ||
| We want to make TV shows, films. | ||
| One problem is these conservative startups, they bite off more than they can chew. | ||
| They go, we're going to make, they have no experience in film or television. | ||
| They go, we're going to make 20 movies and 80 shows and all this. | ||
| It's like, we just want to make this one show, and then that's going to be our starting point to grow and tell more stories and shine light on these kinds of issues. | ||
| If you believe in that vision, thank you. | ||
| If you believe in that vision, go to twistedplots.com. | ||
| We're almost at 10% of our budget. | ||
| Let's get there tonight. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| No, please go and support that because that's key. | ||
| This is a great comment that's in. | ||
| This is a thank you to Tim, but this is for, and I apologize in advance for not knowing the right way to pronounce your name. | ||
| I get that a lot myself. | ||
| Pesobic, Pesobic, Pasobic, but we'll see. | ||
| This is from Ryan Amacher. | ||
| And he's saying, thank you, Tim, for showing my clip of a guy spitting on ice. | ||
| He's been out there covering. | ||
| He's one of these field journalists, citizen journalists who've really been doing a great job of covering these events, this violence. | ||
| Go follow him. | ||
| I'll spell out the name R-H-E-I-N-A-M-A-C-H-E-R. | ||
| And I've been sharing his stuff as well. | ||
| It's really, really good. | ||
| Can I just say one of the chats said Seamus looks like Bad Bunny, which I have no idea of where the resemblance is. | ||
| But if you're getting image. | ||
| Put on the sunglasses. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We'll see. | |
| Start speaking Spanish. | ||
| Someone said, I thought Bad Bunny was the girl from Dr. Phil. | ||
| You need a better track suit. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| I should get a track suit. | ||
| What would you guys do if I just sort of down to your navel? | ||
| We just got another one. | ||
| We just got another one. | ||
| This is from Savannah. | ||
| Her name is Savannah. | ||
| Didn't get to chat it well in the hospital, but we just had our fifth baby. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, God. | |
| All right. | ||
| Five. | ||
| God bless you. | ||
| Five Patriots. | ||
| The Patriot population must be increased. | ||
| This is a numbers game. | ||
| The Muslims understand this. | ||
| We need to understand this as well. | ||
| Amen. | ||
| So let's see. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| This is from Mike G. Watched Phil's Nigeria episode, seeing these communist anti-Christian attacks around the world and here in the U.S. Time for the Pope to appoint a Holy Roman Emperor and bless a new crusade. | ||
| Wow. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hot take. | |
| What was your Nigeria episode? | ||
| So on the Culture War this past Friday, we had a couple guys that have some inside information about the killing of Christians in Nigeria. | ||
| Oh, so the recent. | ||
| Okay, so apparently in the past 20 years, something like 300,000 Christians have been killed. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Mar, to his credit, brought this up. | ||
| Yeah, sure did. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So, and, you know, so we spent two hours talking about that, and they have they have some ideas as to what the United States can do. | ||
| They were basically looking to get the secretary of state to name Nigeria a I forget what the specific phrase was, but basically to get some attention from the from the State Department and possibly get the president to make some remarks or start looking into this. | ||
| They believe that if if the U.S. pays a little more attention, that the government of Nigeria will respond and allowing this genocide against Christians. | ||
| Basically, that's a good idea. | ||
| The president and basically the presidents of Nigeria and the president's whole cabinet, they're Muslims, and so they kind of turn a blind eye because there's a lot of tribalism and such in Nigeria. | ||
| And the Muslims are in the north and the Christians are in the south. | ||
| And that's where there's oil there that's offshore. | ||
| If you look at the map of Nigeria, the north of Nigeria is a lot of desert and grasslands, whereas the south gets more rain and that's where the resources are. | ||
| And so the Muslims are pushing further, further south to go after resources and stuff. | ||
| And it's really just a bad situation for all the Christians involved. | ||
| So we had a discussion about it and wanted to shed some light on the situation. | ||
| That's great. | ||
| And I'm reading the chats. | ||
| A lot of people said it was a disturbing episode, but it was a good episode. | ||
| A lot of people saying that, you know, how do you not call that a Christian genocide? | ||
| I mean, it just by any definition. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Actually, and, you know, by the way, Seamus, we are getting another question here that says, Seamus, where is Twisted Plots at? | ||
| I want to donate to my fellow Plastic Potato. | ||
| Oh, thank you. | ||
| So you can literally just go to twistedplots.com. | ||
| It'll take you to our give, send, go page. | ||
| We have our pitch video there, which explains what the show is, how we're budgeting it, where the money's going so that you know we're being good stewards over these resources and we're making something good with it. | ||
| I'm really transparent through this whole thing about exactly what our goal is. | ||
| So go over to twistedplots.com. | ||
| And if you donate within the first 24 hours of the campaign, you will get to see our pilot episode. | ||
| It's a 25-minute pilot. | ||
| We're not going to release it for a little while here. | ||
| And you will be able to see it if you donate. | ||
| After 24 hours is up, only people who donate more than $25 will get to see it. | ||
| But right now, anyone donating any amount will get to see our pilot. | ||
| You need to take some tips from you on how to raise cash for a campaign. | ||
| That's not bad. | ||
| That's not bad. | ||
| No, if you donate now, you can get in the captain's table of my campaign, Captain Morgan's table, and we'll send you a free bill about making English the official language. | ||
| Oh, I like that too. | ||
| I like that too. | ||
| That I could fundraise for, I think. | ||
| Well, we should shout that out. | ||
| We got a couple of minutes left. | ||
| But tell us again about where people can go to check out more about the campaign. | ||
| Tell us also, you know, why was it that you decided, you know, at this point in your life with everything that's going on, especially in the wake of all this political violence that we have seen that you've decided to sort of step forward and say, I want, you know, here I am, Lord. | ||
| I'm going to go for it. | ||
| Here I am, send me. | ||
| Why do it now? | ||
| I started it in prayer, prayed a lot about it. | ||
| And I wasn't going to talk about my faith, actually, on the campaign trail, because as a Protestant Christian, we always quoted Jesus a lot. | ||
| Let them see your faith by your works and not your words. | ||
| And so I told a lot of those closest to me that I didn't really want to talk about my faith a lot on the campaign trail. | ||
| And after Charlie, I realized how wrong that was. | ||
| And I needed to speak about it more openly and more forthrightly. | ||
| And that's a gift that he gave to me. | ||
| But I chose to run because I really believe that we need to keep the MAGA movement going. | ||
| January 21st, 2029, Washington is going to want to snap back to the way things have always been done. | ||
| And we cannot let that happen. | ||
| There are a lot of people now who claim to love President Trump because he's winning. | ||
| We have all three branches of government. | ||
| We've got both houses of Congress. | ||
| We're firmly in control of the executive branch, majority on the Supreme Court. | ||
| But back in 2021, it was a really unpopular time. | ||
| You were there. | ||
| Really unpopular time to be a Republican. | ||
| And especially an unpopular time to be a MAGA Republican. | ||
| It was incredibly lonely. | ||
| And Tommy Tuberville is one of the strongest MAGA voices in the entirety of Congress, certainly the strongest MAGA voice in the Senate. | ||
| And we can't afford to lose that. | ||
| For some reason, a lot of deeply red states send what I call squish representatives to Congress. | ||
| I don't know why this is. | ||
| Deep blue states don't. | ||
| Deep blue states send Elizabeth Warren. | ||
| They send Bernie Sanders. | ||
| But like Susan Collins, I can understand Susan Collins from the border state. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| Right. | ||
| She's remained, right? | ||
| It's blue, you know, and she can get elected because of a certain confluence of issues up there. | ||
| Fine. | ||
| Alabama? | ||
| Alabama. | ||
| Come on, man. | ||
| Let's send a full-throated MAGA conservative to the U.S. Senate. | ||
| That's why I'm running because we just can't afford to let that go. | ||
| Tommy Tuberville is going to be an awesome governor for the state. | ||
| We need him in the state of Alabama. | ||
| I actually begged him not to leave the Senate because his voice is so strong there. | ||
| So I didn't want to run. | ||
| I felt called to run. | ||
| I like that. | ||
| And tell people the website again. | ||
| The website. | ||
| Thank you for that. | ||
| See, Seamus, you got to help me. | ||
| You got to help me out. | ||
| I got to get you with this campaigning stuff. | ||
| I haven't run for dog catchers. | ||
| Maybe I should. | ||
| I actually kind of like that he doesn't even know to, oh, yeah, hit the fundraising. | ||
| I got to hit the fundraising. | ||
| That's actually, you don't want the guy. | ||
| You don't want the guy that turns every answer into a fundraiser. | ||
| I apologize to my whole campaign staff. | ||
| Your finance directors. | ||
| It just exploded. | ||
| My website is murphyforsenate.com. | ||
| Murphyforsenate.com. | ||
| Very, very soon. | ||
| You can't miss it. | ||
| Go see my battleship video. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| My launch video was shot in front of the USS Alabama. | ||
| I believe, Jack, we need to bring back the battleship. | ||
| Not the old ones. | ||
| We need to make new battleships now that can withstand drones, that can pack it full of awesome technology. | ||
| Tommy Tuverville, a lot of people don't know this, but he's the head of sea power. | ||
| And we need a head of sea power who loves the Navy. | ||
| Look, we had a great, great day with the Navy yesterday. | ||
| Fine Navy Day, as they say. | ||
| Fine Navy Day. | ||
| Usually it's a terrible day when it's a fine Navy Day. | ||
| Yeah, when you say fine Navy Day, that's not, that doesn't even mean. | ||
| How is it? | ||
| It's 30 below and it's sleeting. | ||
| Well, and I mean to be there aboard the bush and I hear the piping and they say, and they and they get, they say President United States of America. | ||
| Arriving. | ||
| Well, actually. | ||
| Or no, when he comes in. | ||
| He had already arrived at this point because I heard the pipe and I said, what's going on? | ||
| And because of the flight deck, when he arrived, he was getting on the 1MC. | ||
| And he gets on the 1MC. | ||
| That's the internal microphone and PA. | ||
| It's the PA system, right, for the whole, and this wasn't for the cameras. | ||
| This wasn't televised. | ||
| He just talked to the whole crew and he told them how great they were. | ||
| I mean, it's a city at sea. | ||
| And talk to him about how great they were, how much he loved being there, how much he loved the Navy, how much he supported them. | ||
| By the way, the first lady had a great time yesterday. | ||
| She loved it. | ||
| I saw the clips of it. | ||
| If you see the videos, if you see some of the videos, when she gets up there and she goes, Hoo Yah Navy! | ||
| And she's like, she's giddy. | ||
| And you see the first lady, you know, and she's known for her poise and her glamour. | ||
| And she's, you know, Versace and Gucci and all this. | ||
| But I saw a side of First Lady Melania Trump that I'm not used to seeing. | ||
| Gucci went overboard. | ||
| You know, Gucci overboard. | ||
| And she's just loving it. | ||
| And she spent the entire time on the flight. | ||
| They were there about an hour and a half on the flight deck, which literally. | ||
| They're getting those F-35s. | ||
| Like, you know, I've done that like, you know, 30 feet away from you. | ||
| They're cool. | ||
| They're right there. | ||
| And they had the F-A-18 did the sonic boom just right off the bow. | ||
| No better pilot. | ||
| No, right off the port side from them and didn't flinch. | ||
| Didn't flinch at all. | ||
| It was amazing to see. | ||
| It was amazing. | ||
| No, we've got to have a strong Navy. | ||
| And that's one of my core platform pieces. | ||
| Congress has mandated a 350-ship Navy and we're at 285. | ||
| We're nowhere near that. | ||
| We haven't been that. | ||
| I mean, we're just openly admitting we do not have the adequate number of ships we need to deter aggression. | ||
| Which, by the way, spurs shipbuilding, which spurs which spurs jobs, which spurs domestic manufacturing. | ||
| Last year, China built 900 ships, including commercial ships. | ||
| We built seven. | ||
| And it's worth noting that all of any ship built in China has to be built to standards that the military could take. | ||
| Well, down there double hulled, right? | ||
| And so ships are much harder to sink. | ||
| We just don't have the firepower right now. | ||
| Our Navy is dispersed around the world, and we have the finest Navy in the world, but there's just not enough of them. | ||
| We need to double the fleet. | ||
| And that's what I'm running on, is double the size of the fleet. | ||
| You're talking almost Reagan numbers. | ||
| Yeah, definitely Reagan numbers. | ||
| We have to have it. | ||
| Merchant Marine, we've got to modernize. | ||
| And if we don't do that, we're a maritime nation at its core. | ||
| The United States is a maritime nation. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And so we've got to have a two hours with you. | |
| Let's do it. | ||
| But I do also like how President Trump has reiterated as well the concept of hemispheric defense. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And that we shouldn't have any business going all around the world. | ||
| Yes, of course, the shipping lanes and South China Sea and all the rest of it and the Red Sea. | ||
| Make the Monroe Doctrine great again. | ||
| Yeah, we know all the slocks, right? | ||
| But at the same time, if we've let the homeland, we've let our hemisphere, if we've let the Gulf of America be completely subservient to other countries, then no, no, we absolutely can't have that. | ||
| We have to focus on our home first. | ||
| And by the way, you think the Russians would do that? | ||
| You think the Chinese, look at the Russians do with the Black Sea. | ||
| Look what the Chinese do with the South China Sea. | ||
| We are the only ones who are so stupid is that we don't actually project our power into our own neighborhood. | ||
| Well, you raised your hand and I raised my hand to protect this country and the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| While we were fighting a lot of foreign enemies, we let a lot of domestic enemies here grab the reins. | ||
| Speaking of domestic enemies, Phil Bonte. | ||
| I don't know what you're talking about there, Jack. | ||
| You're a bad man, Phil. | ||
| I did call you a communist last time I was on. | ||
| Yeah, I know, but you're a ridiculous man. | ||
| So it's okay. | ||
| That's okay. | ||
| I just love our flag. | ||
| Are we doing the. | ||
| I totally would, but we're out of time. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Well, you know, if you are looking to follow me on X, I am Phil That Remains. | ||
| The band is all that remains, and you can check the band out on Apple Music, Amazon Music, Pandora, Spotify, Deezer. | ||
| We are going on tour next year. | ||
| We just announced a show at Welcome to Rockville down in Daytona, Florida. | ||
| There will be more shows that will be announced as they become, you know, as we are able to announce them. | ||
| We'll be out for about three weeks, so keep an eye out, all that remains on the road in your town in probably in May. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's huge. | |
| Yeah, congrats, man. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| That's awesome. | ||
| It'll be a good time to get out there on the road. | ||
| It'll be the first time that I'm going to be on tour, also having a newborn, well, a Todd baby at the same time. | ||
| So it'll be like you're on vacation. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Don't tell. | ||
| You'll be like, see you later. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's what I'm saying. | |
| I'm having a work to the moment. | ||
| By the way, that reminds me of the middle of the book. | ||
| Don't forget the Left Lane is for Crime. | ||
| Love Lane's for Crime. | ||
| There's no announcements, but people keep asking me. | ||
| I had this tweet that went pretty viral that I definitely did not have Turning Point of Rubel for about should Turning Point hold an alternative halftime show to Bad Bunny and what if we got Creed to perform? | ||
| Oh my God. | ||
| Now, Phil, what you just mentioned reminded me. | ||
| So Alterbridge has a tour in Europe. | ||
| Now, this is the side project of the other Creed member. | ||
| It's Creed. | ||
| Yeah, it's Creed, just it has, it doesn't have Scott Stapp. | ||
| So they will be on tour. | ||
| However, Scott Stapp is not part of Alterbridge. | ||
| So he will not be in Europe during the Super Bowl. | ||
| All I'm saying is, all I'm saying is no announcements. | ||
| I'm not here to announce anything. | ||
| We've got a lot of attention about it. | ||
| We've got a lot of interest in it. | ||
| The media has been blowing us all up. | ||
| And other artists and types have, you know, we've got a lot of inquiries and a lot of communication. | ||
| And all I will say is no announcements, but conversations. | ||
| We're at the conversation. | ||
| We did a tour with Alterbridge in 2017, going into 18. | ||
| Great guests. | ||
| Some of the most, again, super, super pro, incredibly accommodating for us. | ||
| It was a great time. | ||
| And so it would be really cool to see Alterbridge playing a show at the Super Bowl halftime as opposed to. | ||
| I can't get Alterbridge, though, because the Alterbridge didn't. | ||
| Oh, yes, yes, yes. | ||
| Yes, we'd have to get Scott without them. | ||
| Maybe we can virtually, you know, sync it up or something. | ||
| I don't know if they have the technology for that, but we do have the technology for the members only hour, which is going to be starting soon. | ||
| We're also going to be talking about more libs and specifically hick lib music. | ||
| So make sure you follow. | ||
| Make sure you check that out. | ||
| If you want to follow me at Jack Pacific, I'm the host of Human Events Daily. | ||
| You can check that out at humanevents.com. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, as always, you have my permission to lay ashore. | ||
| Everybody else is off, taking it around. | ||
| So I'm just going to start the show here. | ||
| Apparently, what's his name? | ||
| Zach Brown? | ||
| Zach Bryan. | ||
| Yeah, he's got a cringe new song, and he is taking the side of the leftists. | ||
| He's complaining about ICE. | ||
| Rumor has it that he had a Latina girlfriend, a big booty Latina girlfriend that was deported. | ||
| Alex Stein would not approve. | ||
| I approve. | ||
| I don't approve of Zach Bryan's new song. | ||
| But are we going to play a little bit of it? | ||
| Is it something? | ||
| Yeah, go ahead and play a little bit of this abortion. | ||
| So that way you guys can all see how terrible it is. | ||
| I'll even put my ears on to listen to it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Didn't wake up, dead are in jail. | |
| Some out of town boys been giving us hail. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I got some bad news. | |
| Out of town, boys, I assume. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| His girlfriend. | ||
|
unidentified
|
My friends are all degenerates, but they're all I got. | |
| The generational story of dropping the plot. | ||
| I heard the cops came. | ||
| Cocky motherfuckers, ain't they? | ||
|
unidentified
|
And I'm gonna come to the standing deck. | |
| Try to get to the house on the back of the house. | ||
| He's just like, oh, I'm gonna take it. | ||
| He's just like, oh, I'm going to take the side of the people that are not Americans. | ||
| Why is he starting to sound like that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Who is that guy who did the Richmond of Richmond? | |
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| Richmond. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| That one hit wonder, Oliver Anthony. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, who like totally started like crapping all over MAGA like right after he got popular. | ||
| Did he? | ||
| I didn't remember that. | ||
| I just remember that he sold a bunch of tickets and then he was like, these were too expensive for people. | ||
| And then he told his show or something. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, he was making a stink about the price of tickets. | ||
| The thing is, I think that that was because of his inexperience with the industry and stuff. | ||
| He didn't realize the way that Ticketmaster and the fees and et cetera go. | ||
| If you want to keep your tickets below 40 bucks, that's perfectly admirable, but that means that you have to keep your actual ticket price for the room probably around 20. | ||
| So the advertised price is $20. | ||
| And then, now, granted, he was probably going to sell out every place that he went to, but there, you know, look, there's math involved in these logistics. | ||
| How much of the math of the venue, if the venue costs this much to rent, if there's staff, if there's, if it's, you're playing in a union town, you need to get union, like that, that all comes down to ticket price. | ||
| Yeah, absolutely. | ||
| So now, no, obviously. | ||
| He's got out over his skis, if I understand. | ||
| Yeah, no, obviously people don't love the ticket master, the hidden fee stuff, but again, that's, that's just how the system works. | ||
| Yeah, and artists should understand their fan base. | ||
| And granted, again, he blew up from one song, so it's not like he had some kind of deep knowledge about the industry and stuff like that. | ||
| But the way that we price our tickets, the way that all the remains prices are tickets, we take into account how big is the room and how many people can the venue hold and how many people are going to be on our crew for this tour and how much is the bus going to be. | ||
| And look, it's all a math problem. | ||
| You have to make it work. | ||
| No, and this is something. | ||
| So, you know, obviously when we do turning point events, you know, and we have ticketed events, people say, you know, and certain things people say, why is the adult price so much more than the student price? | ||
| And one of the main reasons is because guess what? | ||
| You're subsidizing the students because we actually don't put that like in our pockets or something. | ||
| What we're actually doing is subsidizing the ticket and in some cases the accommodations and even the airfare at times of student groups so that they can come and they can actually partake in these events and open it up to people who perhaps wouldn't be able to if they were just paying the same full-free adult price. | ||
| And that's one of the things that Charlie was always adamant about. | ||
| And of course, there's other donors that go into it as well. | ||
| But this is part of the way that Turning Point was set up, that it's meant to, it was always meant to be, you know, meant to be something for the kids so that they could come in, not just the college level, but even the high school level now, Click Home Club Americas. | ||
| And, you know, it's just, it goes to that, you know, what you're saying about the ticket prices, because right now we're dealing with that with the America Fest event, which is going to be happening in December, where we, you know, we're, we, we have way more tickets than we have capacity for at this point in the wake of everything that happened. | ||
| And so, you know, we're looking at options to pack as many, as many possible seats in as we can. | ||
| It's just physical, it's just physics actually that we're up against at this point. | ||
| And, you know, we could, we've talked about moving to other venues in the city of Phoenix. | ||
| We usually do the convention center, but it's, it's just hard to hold a conference not at a convention center. | ||
| It doesn't really lend itself to a stadium. | ||
| It doesn't really lend itself to a hotel. | ||
| You really need a convention center with those big halls. | ||
| So, you know, we'll see. | ||
| But all right, since we're all back, I want to play this song because we have to dig into this. | ||
| I want to get, and we can talk about it from the cultural side, but Phil, I want you to come in on it from the musical side as well. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Zach Bryan is in the middle of the day. | ||
|

|
Dead or in jail. | |
| Some out of town boys been giving us hail. | ||
| I got some bad news. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I woke up missing you. | |
| My friends are all degenerates, but they're all I got. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The generational story of dropping the plow to hurt the cops cane. | |
| Cocky motherfuckers, ain't they? | ||
| Whoa, Edgy. | ||
| Edgy. | ||
| Edgewater. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| Yeah. | ||
| All right, Phil. | ||
| I mean, to me, that didn't sound very different from something you might hear from like Suno. | ||
| But, but, you know, what goes, I mean, what was the musical quality of that? | ||
| I mean, look, it's perfectly acceptable for a, you know, a modern country song. | ||
| There was a little hook. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Got some bad news. | ||
| His performance, his performance in it was, you know, it's fine. | ||
| You know, he can sing. | ||
| Everyone knows that he can sing. | ||
| But, you know, like, I mean, I think that the lyrical content does matter. | ||
| And I think that, you know, it's a little tone deaf for the type of fans that you generally see in country music. | ||
| Now, I think that maybe he's looking to appeal to a young audience. | ||
| You should be singing in Spanish. | ||
| You can pick up the bad bunny, you know, the bad bunny cohort here. | ||
| Yeah, none of the fans he's trying to gain can understand him. | ||
| ICE is going to come knock your door. | ||
| You're right, Phil. | ||
| Not only is it tone deaf, I think it's audience deaf, right? | ||
| Who in his audience has to worry about this? | ||
| He's scolding. | ||
| He's scolding people. | ||
| He's scolding his audience. | ||
| It's moral grandstanding. | ||
| Exactly what it is. | ||
| And it's moral blackmail, too. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And by the way, do you hear that line that he said? | ||
| It took me a second to understand this. | ||
| Why is he talking about you try to build a house, they don't build no more? | ||
| Oh, he's saying the illegals are just trying to build houses. | ||
| They're just here for construction. | ||
| That's all it is. | ||
| You know, they're just trying to help out, trying to participate. | ||
| I mean, it's so infantile to describe this as such a situation. | ||
| I mean, we just were talking about a story where the Latin Kings were putting out an assassination hit on a Border Patrol agent or a CBP agent, which Border Patrol, up in Chicago. | ||
| But Zach Bryan is thinking, no, no, it's, you know, they're just going after the, where is it? | ||
| The house builders. | ||
| Right. | ||
| The guys that pick the crops, the guys that build your houses. | ||
| I hear this all the time. | ||
| See. | ||
| We have no idea who's in this country because Biden let in 20 million people. | ||
| We have no idea who they are. | ||
| The kids are all scared and all alone. | ||
| So he's the family separation. | ||
| If you go through each lyric of this, it's just some other toxic empathy. | ||
| You know, lib false story. | ||
| So that's. | ||
| We've OD'd on empathy in this country. | ||
| When there's absolute mercy for everyone, there's no justice. | ||
| No. | ||
| Justice and mercy are two sides of the same coin. | ||
| The middle fingers rising and it won't stop showing. | ||
| Well, and also some bad news, the fading of the red, white, and blue. | ||
| Actually, I will say that that I thought that last lyric was just dumb. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, well, also, it felt kind of like it's very clumsy. | |
| You're right, because it's not a perfect rhyme. | ||
| You're like, I'm going to read rhyme news with blue. | ||
| It won't stop. | ||
| Wouldn't it have been smarter to say, I got the red, white, and blues? | ||
| Something? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| The line about the middle finger sounded clumsy to me. | ||
| It sounded like he was stumbling over his words or something. | ||
| It didn't come out quite right. | ||
| So it's just, I think that he's, like I said, I think he's trying to go for a young audience. | ||
| I mean, look, he's got 25 million, something like 25 million monthly listeners on Spotify. | ||
| So he's doing fine. | ||
| This isn't, you know, this is not going to, even if it's received badly, it's not going to put a dent in his career. | ||
| We're deporting all of them. | ||
| Guys, here's all my people. | ||
| Here's what I would say. | ||
| Yeah, look up the Zach Bryan supporters and strip them of their citizenship. | ||
| But, no, what it is, though, and this is an example of something I call Yellowstoning. | ||
| And it's a trend that I've noticed from the great show, formerly great show, Yellowstone, where you will see, and in this specific one, you is an archetype called the hicclib. | ||
| And the hicklib is someone who, and look, you're from Alabama, you may have seen this, where you take someone who's, you know, kind of, kind of presents themselves as a country boy and is in some corporate position like, you know, pop country like this, and sort of has the aesthetics of someone that we would normally perceive to be conservative. | ||
| And yet they start opening their mouth and it's like, and that's why we shouldn't have guns anymore. | ||
| And you're like, whoa, what, what did he just say? | ||
| You know, and that's why we need to give the middle finger to ass. | ||
| Wait, wait, I'm sorry. | ||
| What? | ||
| And so it's like a it's like an op that's being run on Middle America and the South and Appalachia to say, no, it's actually cool to be against Trump. | ||
| And it's actually, it's, it's our people against Trump. | ||
| And you saw this with Yellowstone. | ||
| And I'm sorry that people didn't see it coming when they did. | ||
| First, they give him the Antifa girlfriend and to Kevin Costner. | ||
| And then he's like learning about climate justice. | ||
| Then they have all the stuff about the Indians. | ||
| And they had the one, Monica, right? | ||
| It's giving these lectures. | ||
| And you're just forced to watch this for no reason that ties into the story. | ||
| They actually were in the first season, but then they weren't anymore. | ||
| And at the very end, they turn the whole ranch over to the Indians. | ||
| And you see them taking down the why and like overturning graves and stuff. | ||
| And it's like, if you don't see that as a metaphor for tearing down Western civilization and tearing down, as we've been talking about all night here, tearing down the things that our ancestors built in this country, then I think you're just not paying attention or maybe you don't understand like the messaging that is not even subliminal. | ||
| I mean, I don't see how it could get more overt. | ||
| And, you know, Zach Bryan, obviously nowhere near as deft as, oh, gosh, what's the Yellowstone guy? | ||
| Tyler Sheridan, you know, in his writing. | ||
| He's just beating you over the head with how overt he is. | ||
| But have you seen this? | ||
| Have you seen this in country and some of these other artists where suddenly they're just like, they're just putting more liberal stuff into the mainstream? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I mean, when Taylor Swift was called country, I listened. | ||
| I'm old, so I listen to old country. | ||
| I listen to classic country. | ||
| Yeah, real country. | ||
| Real country. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, real country. | ||
| Why yoke them? | ||
| And when Taylor Swift was called country, I'm like, I'm out. | ||
| So I don't keep up with. | ||
| Oh, no, I got you. | ||
| No, it's it. | ||
| I'm telling you, or Beyonce just did a country album. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I can't listen to that. | ||
| And so, and so, so again, Seamus, back me up on this. | ||
| You know what I'm talking about. | ||
| They are forcing the hicclib on us. | ||
| And not only that, but they're doing it on YouTube as well. | ||
| And a while back, I was able to find that the State Department was working with like the ADL and YouTube to fund this new algorithmic program where they were actually funneling people into hicclibs and hicclib content and channels where they would say, yeah, I like guns. | ||
| I like the Second Amendment. | ||
| But yeah, I could pull it up in two seconds. | ||
| I had no idea. | ||
| I've seen some of these channels. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We should go to collars. | |
| We should go to collars, actually. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| I'd be curious to hear about that. | ||
| Three places. | ||
| No, we will, we will. | ||
| I'm telling you, this is just another example of this. | ||
| But you're right. | ||
| We should go to callers. | ||
| And I would be remiss if I didn't get the callers' opinions on the latest PSYOP in our country. | ||
| So where are we going, guys? | ||
| Where are we going? | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're going to Duke Sparkle Teddy's Esquire, who was up first. | |
| What's up, man? | ||
| You there? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I got to unmute them. | |
| Yeah, I'm muting them. | ||
| Duke, are you there? | ||
| By me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hold on. | |
| Unmute. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Duke. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Duke Sparkle. | |
| Hey, what's up, man? | ||
| How you doing? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'll live in the dream. | |
| You know, Jack, you don't call, you don't write. | ||
| And I'm beginning to think our post-IRL trip to Sheets meant nothing to you. | ||
| Well, look, man, look, look, Sheets, the post-IRL trip to Sheets is an ancient and sacred tradition, and it cannot be abridged upon. | ||
| But that being said, I don't usually talk about it publicly because I want to keep it in that sacred bubble. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's fair. | |
| I won't tell anyone how funny you actually are. | ||
| I am not funny at all, not even a little bit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Seriously, though. | |
| Why is the media, all the influencers, why are they so gay? | ||
| We're seeing with the news of the house fire in South Carolina, and the immediate reaction was, it's because she was against Trump. | ||
| Trump is to blame. | ||
| When literally nobody at that point in time knew anything about what was happening. | ||
| This certainly isn't the only instance of media manipulation. | ||
| By the way, I think it actually did come out, and I think I saw it on the post-millennial that it was, it was ruled not arson. | ||
| So it was. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, that came out today. | |
| Yeah, so it was just, yeah, right. | ||
| It's on the headline on post-millennial right now. | ||
| South Carolina authorities say fire at judge's home, not arson. | ||
| So it was just, it was a fire. | ||
| It was a horrible fire. | ||
| They do happen, and they have found no evidence to support a, what they call a, quote, a free fire pre-fire explosion. | ||
| No evidence to indicate the fire was intentionally set. | ||
| So obviously it's horrible. | ||
| I certainly hope everyone is okay. | ||
| But people were blaming Harmeet Dillon because Harmeet Dylan had called out this judge and talked about this in the past. | ||
| And they just said, no, no evidence. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And basically, the real question is: what's the proper solution to all this? | ||
| How do we actually bring about a change that tells these broadcast networks, these major influence peddlers out there, that enough is enough? | ||
| We don't want to hear their narrative 10 seconds after something comes out when it's completely off base. | ||
| I mean, look, there's different ways to go about this. | ||
| I mean, obviously, part of it is not listening, but I've got to say one of the big ones that I've seen and really support is what Elon Musk was doing last week and then Cash Patel and others with their direct targeting of these fake institutions and smear factories like the SPLC. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| And the SPLC has existed for years. | ||
| You know, perhaps it was started under best intentions. | ||
| Alabama again, by the way. | ||
| And yet for some, by the way, let me ask you that question. | ||
| So, you know, we got this organization. | ||
| They've been inciting violence all over the country. | ||
| Alabama is a pretty red state last time. | ||
| I checked. | ||
| Why hasn't the Alabama AG opened up an investigation into them? | ||
| That's an excellent question, Cowardis. | ||
| You'll have to ask the AG about that. | ||
| And I'm going to be serious about this for a second because this is something that Charlie and I talked about. | ||
| And Charlie had tweeted about it in the past. | ||
| They sit there in a massively red state. | ||
| They're right at the center of what they call it, the Poverty Palace. | ||
| And we couldn't even get an investigation into their obviously fraudulent and corrupt scams, the fundraising, the misappropriation of funds, the misuse of donated funds. | ||
| I mean, every rule in the book, they would break, and yet not even a subpoena. | ||
| Nothing. | ||
| Nothing. | ||
| So, to answer the caller's question, answer Duke, you know, I think you've got to go a step beyond that because, look, we have the First Amendment, and we're not going to break the First Amendment, but these organizations that are behind it, those are the ones you put the pressure on. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Does that answer your question? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Fair enough. | |
| Fair enough, Duke. | ||
| You want to shout anything out? | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's why I Park Pod, Monday through Friday, 6:30 Eastern. | |
| Thank you guys. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Thanks for your call, man. | ||
| Thanks, man. | ||
| Appreciate you, man. | ||
| See you at Sheets. | ||
| All right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Next, we got Luke Gray Wolf. | |
| Luke Gray Wolf, you're up. | ||
| What's going on, Luke? | ||
| How you doing, bud? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Howdy, y'all. | |
| Professional driver and mediocre artist. | ||
| I've got a fairly simple question tonight for the panel. | ||
| When does a lethal threat actually become a threat to life? | ||
| Because we watch these little leftist twerps scream and threaten to kill people in public constantly all the time. | ||
| And I'm not asking this so much as a legal question or a question of a legal standard, but a question of societally, what is acceptable. | ||
| Because we have that video of the journalist in Portland where the guy's walking up on him saying, I'm going to smoke you. | ||
| That's a threat to kill him. | ||
| Yes, it is. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And what I'm afraid of is we are very fastly careening towards what will be a very viral video of one of these twerk shitheads threatening to kill the wrong person and either reaching for a pocket or going to pull something out of their pocket. | |
| And then that person just failure drilling them and dropping them on the ground, dead. | ||
| And we'll talk about it for 50 years. | ||
| That will be the example of political violence in this country and political extremism if it happens. | ||
| I agree with you. | ||
| It's worrying. | ||
| It's worrying. | ||
| And by the way, and I'll just say this: you know, after seeing what happened to Charlie, every single time I watch one of these videos when I see Nick Shirley or Nick Sorter or Katie Daviskor, who's my colleague from Postmillennial, or just any of them that are out there putting themselves in harm's way like this, | ||
| it is kind of, it's uncomfortable for me to watch this because I'm constantly, just as you said, I'm constantly waiting for that one moment where suddenly, you know, something rings out or somebody reaches for something and they go down. | ||
| We've got to keep putting ourselves in harm's way. | ||
| I mean, you did it when you joined the Navy. | ||
| That's what I told my nephew when he said, I don't want you to run. | ||
| I said, it's important to do, it's important to put yourself in harm's way because if no one else steps up, we're going to lose what we believe in the most and cherish the most. | ||
| That being said, security. | ||
| We can have security. | ||
| You can do it smartly. | ||
| You can do it smartly, but that's, and I believe Charlie did it smartly. | ||
| No, he did. | ||
| And there were some issues there that will be coming out in due time from the local police and campus. | ||
| And that's all going to become awesome. | ||
| And I admire people who put themselves forward and who are willing to take that risk and who are willing to step up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What do you drive, by the way? | |
| Oh, drive a Kenworth W900. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| We get a lot of professional driving right now. | ||
| Are you making it your way down to God's Country, aka Alabama? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'll be in Alabama here in a few days to go to the Dorsey factory, but for now I'm going to America's asshole, Atlanta. | |
| I was stuck there last night. | ||
| This is the dying go to hell. | ||
| I'm going to have to connect to Atlanta first. | ||
| I think that's about right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But the question I'm really asking is like, I'm not so concerned about the major personalities, but if it happens, it's just going to be a video of a regular person. | |
| And it's just going to be the wrong person. | ||
| Somebody messes with. | ||
| That'll be have at this point a reasonable fear for their life with this many people have been killed. | ||
| And I genuinely kind of worry about it. | ||
| And what I worry most about it is that the reaction will just be they fucked around and found out. | ||
| Well, look, I was going to say, we already know. | ||
| Yeah, we already know what'll happen because this happened five years ago. | ||
| And it was called Kyle Rittenhouse in Kenosha, Wisconsin. | ||
| And we saw how he defended himself deftly three times in a row from people who were trying in succession to murder a murderous mob, a literal murderous mob was chasing him through the streets of Kenosha. | ||
| It's all on videotape. | ||
| The FBI had a plane flying overhead conducting video surveillance of all of this that they didn't release. | ||
| So I released it on the you know on the eve of Kyle's trial, and he was charged. | ||
| He was charged for defending himself. | ||
| And so unfortunately, as much as I hate to say it, depending on the locality, especially if it's in one of these blue states, blue cities like Chicago or Portland, that person will definitely be charged. | ||
| I will certainly do everything in my power to New York. | ||
| Daniel Penny in New York. | ||
| So I'll certainly do everything in my power to support and tell the truth and spread awareness about whatever happens in this situation. | ||
| If, of course, it is truly a self-defense situation. | ||
| But again, it would be another Kyle Rittenhouse. | ||
| And by the way, I don't want that. | ||
| That's why I do support the President of the United States saying, look, if this has gotten too far out of control, the appropriate response is to call on the National Guard. | ||
| And it's simply that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I mean, laws have to be enforced. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| That's a remarkably controversial opinion these days. | ||
| Sarah, anything you wanted to shout out? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I have an Instagram account by the same name. | |
| Follow it up your own risk. | ||
| I'm just going to go back driving, finishing up my yogurt. | ||
| Where the hell did my spoon go? | ||
| Oh, he snuck it in there. | ||
| Oh, he totally snuck it up on me. | ||
| Very, very good Bravo. | ||
| You were talking about yogurt. | ||
| I was about to be like, cut that guy. | ||
| I feel, just to be honest, mistreated. | ||
| I feel as if I'm being mistreated. | ||

Thanks for calling it. | |
| Do you want someone to spoon you? | ||
| Oh, horrifying. | ||
| I just want to do it. | ||

Are you the big spoon or the pun again? | |
| You just keep going with it. | ||
| All right, next we got Lynch. | ||
| You know, they say, uh, they say, they say your medicine tastes better with a spoonful of sugar. | ||
| Oh, my gosh, dude. | ||
| I am being bullied, and I should never have done this. | ||

Yes. | |
| That's correct. | ||
| Hello. | ||

|
Out of yellow. | |
| Hi. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Jack, I have a question for you, sir. | |
| Yes, sir. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| My son's a senior, and he is already determined to join the military. | ||
| Oh, here we are. | ||
| And he straight out of the gate told me he wants to be Navy intelligence. | ||
| Oh, that's terrible. | ||
| That's the worst, worst job in the fleet. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, this is what I'm calling. | |
| Sure, sure. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So the Army recruiter has visited the school and talked to him, and now he's considering Army intel. | |
| Oh, no, no, not an army. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| My question is: I'm trying to get him to take like maybe a year or two to go to college and study for his as so he'd be ready for his ASVAB so he can be in Intel because I don't think he's going to come out of high school knowing what he knows now. | ||
| I just, I don't think he's going to score high enough. | ||
| So has he taken a practice as VAP yet? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, yeah. | |
| Okay. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I mean, look, they want to hire, they want, you know, you want as high as possible as you can get on your ASVAP to get Intel, that's for sure. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You know, and if, and if he's not ready, he's not ready. | ||
| And that being said, if he wants Intel, which, you know, I got obviously through, you know, I went enlisted first, but then I went officer. | ||
| And, you know, it's, it's, you, you really need that high ASVAP scorecom. | ||
| I think it's 89 or above, at least when I joined, it was something like that. | ||
| Could be higher now if it's a little bit more selective. | ||
| When I was going in, they had bonuses too for Intel. | ||
| So I got a $19,000 bonus for joining when I did and going the Intel route. | ||
| Now, you only get that upon the completion of boot camp. | ||
| So you have to go all the way through. | ||
| You have to commit. | ||
| You have to sign the contract. | ||
| You have to complete boot camp. | ||
| Then you get it. | ||
| Look, I think they're both great. | ||
| You know, if his heart's set on Navy, obviously I'm going to say go Navy. | ||
| There are different jobs that you can do in the Army. | ||
| So if he's looking at more human intelligence, that's, you know, the Army has a more robust program there. | ||
| But as far as everything else goes, you know, Navy's, you know, I'm just going to say it. | ||
| I think Navy's got a better global footprint. | ||
| That's because of the nature of our operations being as worldwide as they are. | ||
| But you're going to be plugged in directly to same communication suites, et cetera, like that. | ||
| So, yeah, that being said, when it comes to the scores, I would suggest and I would highly recommend getting those scores up. | ||
| And because here's what the recruiter is going to do. | ||
| The recruiter is going to say, well, we got this other job that it's just as good. | ||
| And we can get you in right now. | ||
| And that recruiter will try all the pressure tactics. | ||
| And that's probably what's going on right now, isn't it? | ||
| Jack, are you saying that a recruiter might lie? | ||
| Oh, a recruiter is paid to lie for. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Yep. | ||
| So that's what, I mean, that's my question. | ||
| It's like, so if I can get him to go for like a semester, two semesters, four semesters, whatever, community college, it doesn't matter. | ||
| Like, what are some of the topics or what are some of the things that he should be classes or whatever that he should be taking to try to bump it that would bump his ass back if he was just like just taking classes not even trying to to get a degree or anything yeah I mean if you're really focused on that I mean by the way there's there's plenty of online courses as well there's um uh there's there's uh stuff you can do to do prep for this um uh math and English are going to be your, | ||
| you know, your two sweet spots in terms of just those are the core competencies that you really need to to complete the test. | ||
| Um, so focusing on core high school math and uh core high school English, but at the same time, taking that test, it's timed. | ||
| So, now I know there's the timing is different from when I did it, but at the same time, you need to get used to taking that test under pressure. | ||
| So, getting your speed up. | ||
| And when I was going to, you know, prior to taking the test myself, I was giving myself practice tests multiple times a day, not just to work on my, you know, test-taking ability, but also my speed. | ||
| Because once I could identify the question, identify which formula I needed for that, you know, that specific portion of it, the amount of time that I could reduce in my decision making led to more time that I'd be able to focus on the test. | ||
| So, learn the test inside and out. | ||
| But, yeah, really, just it's core math and core English that are really going to put you over the top there or put him over the top, I should say. | ||
| Any more questions or anything? | ||
| Very specific question, but actually, one I know the answer to. | ||
| So, there you go. | ||
| Great answer to that. | ||
| You got anything you want to say? | ||
| That was actually really solid. | ||
| Yeah, do you got anything you want to shout out? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Uh, no, I mean, uh, watch uh Croma's show, uh, watch Quiet Part, watch uh, Joey's show. | |
| There's a lot of people on Discord that are starting shows that everybody check those out. | ||
| That's great, amen. | ||
| And by the way, tell your son, just as a last piece, you know, I love that he wants to serve, I love the energy, but remember, as we say in the Navy, choose your rate, choose your fate. | ||
| So, you know, the minute he signs on that dotted line, you are sending your selling your life away to the USG, and that recruiter is not going to be with you the minute he drops you off at MEPS. | ||
| So, you're done. | ||
| You are recruited, you're going up to Great Mistakes, Great Lakes, Illinois. | ||
| And just remember, so it's that could really set the course of the rest of your life. | ||
| And the recruiter's not going to tell you that the recruiter is going to say, Oh, it's fine. | ||
| You get you in, you can re-rate, you do this. | ||
| No, no, start right, and you will be on a path that, you know, look, you get an intelligence and you know, you could make it a career for the rest of your life, or you know, you could stop about halfway through and start doing podcasts like I did. | ||
| And we joke about it. | ||
| I mean, we, everybody in the military jokes about it. | ||
| We say that like Navy stands for never again volunteer yourself, yeah, things like that. | ||
| But it is the greatest uh decision I ever made in my life, and I would agree with that to any young person who is thinking about joining the military, especially now. | ||
| I mean, we're back, man. | ||
| I would have loved to serve under Pete. | ||
| Oh, man, I would have loved. | ||
| I would have loved it. | ||
| But you didn't wouldn't want to serve under Lloyd Austin. | ||
| That was an inspiring. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hefty, hefty sack and millie visor. | |
| Oh, no, with the visor and the mask. | ||
| But now, what a great time to join our military. | ||
| What I mean, it is something when I was down. | ||
| My son will never be, never, ever will he regret wearing the cloth of his nation. | ||
| 100%. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, that's what I told him that. | |
| I was like, well, you picked a guitar. | ||
| So, yeah. | ||
| Tell him to take a little more time, get that test up. | ||
| He'll be all right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| Thanks so much for your question, man. | ||
| Take care. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Bye. | |
| Best night. | ||
| You too. | ||
| Cloud 40. | ||
| I'm hearing about young people. | ||
| I just love it. | ||
| I hear it all the time. | ||
| And I try to take, and I'm sure you're the same way. | ||
| Whenever I get, you know, I get a lot of people in high school, you know, they say, hey, I'm looking to join the military. | ||
| What do I do? | ||
| I really do try to take time with those guys because nobody ever did for me. | ||
| No. | ||
| And I did everything bass ackwards, as they say. | ||
| And, you know, they're like, why did you have a college degree? | ||
| Then you went enlisted because I know what I was doing. | ||
| You know, and I tell people at ROTSI a lot. | ||
| I think ROTSI is a great program. | ||
| It's a fantastic program. | ||
| You get in, you start as an O2 at 22. | ||
| You're just ahead of the curve. | ||
| And, you know, if people want to go the enlisted route, that's great too. | ||
| I try to set them up for success. | ||
| At the end of veterans' life, I've handed out 266 American flags to next of kin. | ||
| And it's, it's. | ||
| Oh, you're on, you're on the detail? | ||
| Yeah, I've done a lot of funeral details. | ||
| You know, there are not a lot of Navy guys in Alabama. | ||
| So when an officer dies, you know. | ||
| But seeing how proud their families are of them, and no matter how old they are, it's just so incredibly meaningful. | ||
| It's something that sticks with you your whole life. | ||
| Hopefully not too young. | ||
| Not too young. | ||
| I've done very young, you know, very, very young sailors, which is heartbreaking. | ||
| It's never easy to, you know, that speech and that flag when you hand it over on a knee, thanking them on behalf of the president of the United States. | ||
| The grateful nation. | ||
| Yeah, and the United States Navy. | ||
| That's one of the toughest things I've ever done. | ||
| But it is, it's, it's a brotherhood, and I mean to include women too, but it's a brotherhood of people who serve, and it's especially meaningful. | ||
| Amen to that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right, we got one more caller. | |
| R3, you're on. | ||
| What's up, man? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Evening, fellas. | |
| R3. | ||
| How are you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
How are you? | |
| All right. | ||
| So my question is this: Because Tim had a segment at 12 p.m. today about the Jay Jonas thing. | ||
| He was saying something along the lines of the more scared that the middle gets, the more right that they're going to vote. | ||
| Why are we not assuming that the left is intentionally ramping up more fear and terror in the country as a way to threaten people into saying, like, hey, you vote for us? | ||
| We're going to make all this go away. | ||
| We promise. | ||
| What do you guys think about that? | ||
| And how do we navigate around that? | ||
| They absolutely are doing that. | ||
| They're openly saying that they're doing that. | ||
| There are leftists that say things like, look, you know, we talked about it earlier on IRL tonight. | ||
| You know, there are people that are saying we need conservatives to be in fear for their lives so they will vote, so they will tell their leaders to tone it down. | ||
| And this very same streamer that I'm talking about, he said that if you didn't want Charlie Kirk to be dead, you shouldn't have voted for Donald Trump. | ||
| So, I mean, it's literally openly terroristic threats, right? | ||
| These are, he's openly endorsing terrorism. | ||
| I was sitting right there when he said it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You were. | |
| On the segment. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Insane. | ||
| Insane. | ||
| And by the way, people would say that, you know, how come you didn't respond? | ||
| I said, how do you respond to something like that? | ||
| What do you even say? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What do you even say? | ||
| So, so, yeah, I mean, to that point, you know, I think that I think that the left already is in a position where they are, you know, endorsing terrorism. | ||
| And, you know, whether it be about like you mentioned, whatever, Jay Jones or whatever his name is, he's completely comfortable with threatening or with the idea of conservatives dying. | ||
| Obviously, you know, Charlie was assassinated. | ||
| There were two attempts on the president's life just last year leading up to the election. | ||
| I mean, the idea that this isn't the modus operandi currently of the left, I think that that's an error in thinking, or at least not really looking at the conditions that we're living in right now. | ||
| And as for Tim's argument today about frightened people, he made the remark about, you know, it's the economy stupid, which generally is true. | ||
| But when you're in a context where people are afraid for their safety, that does trump the economy. | ||
| I do think Tim's right about that. | ||
| I don't know that the average person is going to feel like they are in danger or like it's an existential threat. | ||
| But if the conditions on the ground change and there is a ramping up of political violence and people feel like they are actually in danger, then it's possible that the right wins a big, you know, has a big victory in the midterms. | ||
| Generally, that's not what happens because Donald Trump is a Republican and he won the presidency. | ||
| And historically, the administration that's in power, usually the opposition wins in the midterms. | ||
| I'm hopeful that that doesn't happen because you know that the House will draw up articles of impeachment. | ||
| They've already tried in this, you know, in this presidency, right? | ||
| The 47th president. | ||
| Green did it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Al Green. | ||
| Is it name Al? | ||
| Yeah, I think it's Al. | ||
| I think it's Al Green. | ||
| He drew them up. | ||
| Now, thankfully, most of the people on the left said, nah, that ain't a good idea. | ||
| It was a bad timing. | ||
| But that doesn't mean that should the Republican or should the Democrats take the House, that doesn't mean that they won't do it immediately. | ||
| Like, that is something you can guarantee. | ||
| So, I mean, I do hope the conservatives win. | ||
| You know, I would love to see it, but I don't hope that the conditions in the United States deteriorate to the point where it is likely that the conservatives win because people are afraid. | ||
| If that makes any sense. | ||
| Well, I would just add to that as well, that this stuff also amps up the left. | ||
| You're going to see the left come out because they hate ICE so much. | ||
| You're going to see the left come out in Virginia and, yes, in New Jersey, where there's also the gubernatorial race, very close governor's race in New Jersey. | ||
| I think I might be heading out there this weekend, actually, to participate in that one big rally that's coming up in Wildwood. | ||
| And it's going to drive out people on both sides. | ||
| I think it will. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, you're exactly right. | ||
| In 2020, we saw that blackmail before. | ||
| I mean, the cities burned all summer before that election. | ||
| It was an election year, and it was a riotous summer. | ||
| And there was the undercurrent of, well, if Trump had won, they would have burned down, and he did win, I think, but they would have burned down America. | ||
| If Hunter's laptop, had that not been suppressed the way that it was, I think that he would have won on the nation's oldest newspaper founded by Alexander Hamilton. | ||
| Unreal. | ||
| Yeah, I think that he would have won on merit and not because the context of the 2020 election was just so novel. | ||
| You know, the way that they were distributed. | ||
| They were like mail-in votes. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| Unheralded. | ||
| And even if you don't believe that, and my friends are like, oh, well, Morgan, you know, do you really believe? | ||
| I do. | ||
| I believe the election was rigged because I was a member. | ||
| I grew up as a member of the media, right? | ||
| That was my first career. | ||
| And to see the free press suppressed by big tech, by every other, I mean, the Washington Post, have they apologized for calling it Russian disinformation, the laptop story? | ||
| What is it? | ||
| They're waiting for their apology. | ||
| 50 former intelligence officers. | ||
| I mean, we just haven't seen consequences and justice. | ||
| Well, that's exactly it. | ||
| Yeah, there's zero consequences. | ||
| And ultimately, the authority figure shapes the subordinate or vice versa. | ||
| This is one of those things people say about parenthood, like either you're shaping your child or your child is shaping you. | ||
| That's also true of a society and a political movement. | ||
| You are shaping that political movement. | ||
| You're telling them, no, you're not going to get out of line. | ||
| You're not going to burn down buildings. | ||
| You're not going to kill people. | ||
| You're not going to threaten violence. | ||
| You're not going to shut down speech you don't like. | ||
| You're not going to violate people's rights as were delineated. | ||
| Exactly, their civil rights and also their rights as delineated by the Bill of Rights. | ||
| Or you say, actually, you can go ahead and do all of those things and we're going to stand back and let it happen. | ||
| That's a really big piece of this equation: is that when they engage in acts of terroristic violence, it's not like they're all brave people. | ||
| And I'm not saying this would make them brave, but they're not these self-sacrificing heroes who are fine going to jail for the cause. | ||
| They know they're not going to get in trouble. | ||
| They go for easy targets. | ||
| They go for people who won't hit them back. | ||
| They go for people who aren't going to hurt them. | ||
| And they have the entire legal system on their side. | ||
| So you're right. | ||
| I mean, like we were discussing earlier, in a blue city, in my own blue city, you can, you know, be guilty of attempted murder and walk free. | ||
| That's insane to me. | ||
| What's harassing someone for their political beliefs by comparison to attempted murder? | ||
| Well, so originally I'm from Cook County, and the laws there now are insane. | ||
| Similar stuff with the no-cash bail for people for like crimes like kidnapping and homicide. | ||
| What on earth? | ||
| I do have kind of a funny story, though. | ||
| There's this county line, and on one side, you have Cook County, and the other side, you have another county where there are actual laws that are enforced. | ||
| And there's this cop who kind of worked around that territory. | ||
| And when he would pick people up, they would ask, Am I in Cook or am I in DuPage? | ||
| Like, what area am I? | ||
| And they would ask, he'd go, wrong one. | ||
| You were in the wrong county, pal. | ||
| Throw you under the jail. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| So does that answer your question? | ||
| It's quite safer, by the way. | ||
| But anyway, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Sorry, man. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Does that answer your question? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I think so. | |
| I think overall. | ||
| You got anything you want to add? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I mean, Jack mentioned Jersey and I'm born and raised there. | |
| So I guess only last shout out I'd have is just get out there and vote for governor's race. | ||
| It's about it. | ||
| Amen to that. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right, man. | |
| Thanks for calling in. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| All right. | ||
| And we are. | ||
