Trans Democrat Arrested Over ATTACK On JD Vance's Home | Timcast IRL Show less
It has been an absolutely crazy past couple of weeks while we've been away.
The United States has effectively taken over Venezuela, but the big news now is that gunfire is being reported, reports of explosions, and there is deep concern that the U.S. intervention removing Maduro will destabilize the country.
There's a lot of fake videos circulating claiming Venezuelans are celebrating.
I do think personally Venezuela is better off without their tinpot communist dictator as he's being referred to, but there's a bigger conversation about what this means for America, and there's a lot of pros, there's a lot of cons.
We're going to talk about that, but we are choosing to lead tonight with the attack on JD Vance's home because this is not an accident.
This was a targeted attack on the home of the vice president, a man who is transgender, who's the child of big Democrat donors, or of Democrat donors.
Let's try and lighten the language, took a hammer and started smashing up the front of his house.
They think it was a break-in.
Initial reports were of shots fired, but that could have just been that people heard the glass break.
So it's still absolutely crazy the VP was targeted in this way.
And considering what we experienced in the past month, you'll also notice we're in a totally different building right now, different studio.
There is very serious, very serious concerns about the escalation of violence.
So along with that being a massive story, again, I think the biggest story in the world right now is Venezuela, potential destabilization, what this means.
Maduro has pleaded not guilty, and the stock market in Venezuela is skyrocketing with news that the socialist has been removed.
So we're going to talk about that and a whole lot more, my friends.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are now rolling out the next iteration of the Boonies Pro Board models.
This is the Mercenary Collection.
Oh, I'm sorry, it's called the Blueprint Collection.
I thought it was called the Mercenaries Collection, but Blueprint is good as well.
Check this out.
You've got, right here, you got a hand grenade, but there are five limited edition golden hand grenade boards.
You've got the 50 caliber anti-material rifle blueprint board.
You've got the Jason Ellis Battle Axe with five golden limited edition and the Colt 45 Cody Mac with a gold limited edition.
And my personal favorite, the Richie Jackson Assault Wine Bottle.
It's literally a shattered wine bottle as his blueprint weapon.
And there is a golden version.
Of course, we also recently rolled out, as I said, we were going to before the break, step on SNEC and find out new limited edition boards.
There are 200 of these, and there are 10 golden serialized versions that you can get when you order.
Now, of these blueprint collection boards, there's only, I believe, 50 of each and five golden serialized versions.
So head over to boonieshq.com, get in the store, link in the description below.
Pick up your boonies boards today because we sold out of all of the animal series, which we launched back in November.
We sold them all out in two hours.

Joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more.
We've got Lance Videos.
Hey, so basically, I do the Fearless Tour with Cam Higbee.
We are in this very beautiful studio, and the cameras and lighting is absolutely fantastic.
And we have monitors.
How cool is that?
Very professional.
Let's talk about news, though, my friends.
This is a crazy story.
We've got some post-millennial.
Man arrested for attempted break-in of JD Vance's Ohio home identifies as trans.
Father is a Democrat donor.
Facebook profile shows a picture of DeFour, but with the name Julia and the pronouns she, her.
So for those that didn't see the story, we got breaking news early in the morning that there were shots fired at the home of Vice President JD Vance, which were later clarified to be an attempted break-in.
This individual, apparently, according to the story, took a hammer and was smashing up the windows.
Now, here's the thing: this road has been closed.
This is the VP's house, right?
I remember back in Chicago when Obama lived in Hyde Park, everybody knew where Obama lived, and the cops were always out there because crazy people will do crazy things.
So now, you know, we had a discussion before the show, we always do on what's the more pressing story, what needs to be talked about.
Venezuela's foreign policy stuff, and it's a massive story, but it's very esoteric.
My view is kind of like we're experiencing both from a personal and professional and cultural perspective, an increase in escalation of violence threatening the structures of this country.
That I think if you go to a regular person, actually, you know what?
I'm going to put it like this.
I was at the poker tables the other day.
Check it out.
This great poker room called One-Eyed Jack's Poker Room in Sarasota.
Shout out.
And really fun.
And a couple of the guys that were playing there were just like, what's Venezuela?
Like, I don't know what's going on.
And I'm like, really?
And so the issue for me with this is, you know, we, of course, were personally affected by the violence with the shooting we had in the past month.
Hence, we're not at the studio.
We were working on solving these problems.
And then the first day back, I'm coming in in the morning and I'm thinking, I'm going to pull up some Venezuela stuff and talk about Maduro and intervention, of which I have tons of opinions about.
And then I see breaking news: JD Vance's home shot at.
And I'm like, holy crap.
I look it up.
Okay, it was an attempted break-in.
And then we find out later in the day, it's a transgender leftist whose parents are Democrat donors.
And we're like, okay, we can see where this is going.
Now, I look at a story like this.
It is extremely disconcerting considering what we've already seen in terms of escalation.
But I also feel like you go to a regular person and you say, you hear about the vice president's house being attacked.
We're like, oh, yeah, that's crazy.
So as much as I think the bigger story personally is foreign policy, I think for the American people, this story is reminds me of the guy who smashed Nancy Pelosi's husband in the head with a hammer.
Not only that, this is, I mean, how many trans people have, you know, acted out in a violent manner, politically motivated and stuff.
This has become undeniably a pattern.
I tried to, I mean, I didn't want to get involved in the, oh, look, it's the, it's always trans people, blah, blah, blah.
But it does get to the point where you're like, look, you can't deny the fact that these people, whether it's because whether it has anything to do with the fact that they're trans or just because they're trans and they're in the LGBTQ lobby and they feel like the LGBTQ identities are being repressed or whatever, so they're lashing out.
There was this push to remove gender dysphoria from the DSM-5, and actual trans activists came out saying, stop, because if you get this removed as a mental disorder, diagnosable men's disorder, you can't get prescriptions for it.
So these people who want to be offended by me saying, there's something wrong with this person, they are sick and need help.
If that were not the case, they couldn't legally be prescribed medication.
And look, to your point, like, even if they are sick, and I know that there are a lot of right-wing people that would hate even hearing this, but even if they are sick, like that doesn't mean that they can't get treatment and actually decide to live like the other sex if they want.
We can make room for that in society.
I don't think that we should be empowering them at all.
But the idea that because you're acknowledging that it is a disorder, that they're going to be shoved into the closet again.
I don't know that that's going to be the situation.
No, I was just saying, I mean, I think the bigger issue here is this isn't even really a personal issue with these people.
This is a society-wide issue because we're enabling behavior that is inherently self-destructive.
And so naturally, when you enable that, that sort of behavior is going to extrapolate out to the population that they're going to take this out in the population.
If they have such a poor perception of themselves or they feel like they were truly born in the wrong body, they're going to have a lot of difficulty interacting with other people and giving them if they can't, because if you can't give yourself dignity, you're certainly not going to extend that to other people.
It's like, you know, with these types of people that are roaming around the streets being completely enabled by society, like to enable their delusions, what you create in the United States and the West at large is you have an increasingly large proportion of the population that has nothing to lose.
This is obviously going to happen.
Like we have this issue in the United States where we want to address a level of the issue without going and cutting the head off a snake, right?
Like what's going on here is this is much higher.
This is of much larger magnitude, this issue in which people in American society feel like they have no purpose.
They feel like they're completely, I'll use the word that we were using last year, deracinated, and it causes these issues.
And so it's like, okay, we can clamp down on Antifa violence, da-da-da-da.
This is great.
But to undo this damage, to give people sort of meaning back in their lives, that's going to take a lot more work.
And quite frankly, a lot of those issues, people, they're politically radioactive.
People don't want to touch them.
It causes tremendous, tremendous issues.
But yeah, back to my first point, this is someone that has nothing to lose.
That's literally every story I have for you will begin.
And in all seriousness, it's largely because that's where you're sitting around a group of people and everyone's kind of debating.
But you got eight people at a table and there was this liberal guy.
And he said of the Somali daycare fraud stuff that he's totally fine with it.
And he says, I got no problem giving a small percent of my money to help people.
And I was like, but you're not helping people.
They're stealing money and buying Gucci with it.
And he goes, eh, what?
A billion dollars?
Who cares?
And I said, Gen Z, who can't afford homes, who can't get jobs, and are being told by you at Gen Xer, you don't care that the public coffers are being stolen for luxury items in an immigrant community.
I'm like, this is why you're going to get Nick Fuentes.
And he's like, I don't know what that is.
And I'm like, I said, you know, honestly, liberal and conservative just means I know the news or I don't know the news.
And I was like, I'm not saying this to be derisive, but if you don't know what's going on in the world and you don't know the news, you'll call yourself a liberal.
And he goes, I actually don't watch any news at all or read anything.
And I was like, well, you know, case in point, right?
unidentified
Did he identify his queens as kings?
Did he like say, oh, yeah, these queens are actually kings.
It's a good point because the correlation might not be gender dysphoria.
Gender dysphoria might be part, might be on top, right?
The underlying cause might result in violent tendencies or and gender dysphoria among other things.
So the issue is, and I agree with this, that someone will see, oh, another trans person committed an act of violence and it's like, whoa, There may be an underlying mental illness, nihilism, or some kind of social disorder that results in a multitude of things, including gender dysphoria, violence, anorexia, pike up, whatever it might be.
And I actually think that's the tendency.
I think that's true.
I don't see all these trans people and these stories of violence committed by trans shooters as an issue of trans people.
I see trans people as an issue of something else that combines these issues.
I think we've got dejected youth.
I think we've got social media-induced mental illness.
I think we've got drug-induced mental illness.
I think we're over-prescribing drugs to young people, to kids.
And what Lance is talking about is like society permits antisocial behavior.
It never corrects for antisocial behavior.
And this is like across the board at all.
That's what creates crime.
The things that foster crime, especially in inner-city communities, is the fact that these communities do not police for antisocial behavior from an early age.
And then it manifests into violence.
It manifests into a whole plethora of issues.
It's the same thing with trans.
unidentified
I guess the other, this guy that just did this at JD Vance's house probably also did this because he wanted to be famous in some sort, in some way.
It does seem like trans people, it's a manifestation of a bunch of different things like we're talking about.
AGP is one of them.
The idea that if you're a white man, you've been deemed, or a young white man, you've been demonized so much that there's really no social benefit to being a straight white guy.
But if you're a trans person or what have you, then that's some kind of social benefit that you'll get.
Whereas if you're a straight white guy, you don't get it.
If you're told when you're a young kid that you're inherently evil, oh, well, you know, if you decide that you're non-binary in area or maybe you're trans or what have you, there's an incentive to join the LGBT lobby and get away from the, oh, you're just a normal white guy.
It's definitely a subconscious thing because, I mean, if it were a conscious thing, these people already presuppose that white men are actually like ruling everything.
What we're seeing here with this gunfire, we don't know what it is, but I would say I've seen a lot of the pro-Trump, the MAGA faction, celebrating U.S. intervention.
There has been a good example of this criticism we've seen is Viva Fry criticizing Matt Walsh, Matt Walsh saying, hey, if we're going to go in and take resources of our country, it's a good thing.
Then Viva, of course, saying, here's a post from Matt Walsh about foreign intervention in the Middle East.
It does seem, at least in my opinion, that there is an incongruence.
I would describe it as there's a lot of people on the right who are celebrating this intervention, despite being generally anti-intervention for the most part when it comes to the Middle East.
I don't think they're mutually exclusive.
I think you can support this operation while opposing what we did in the Middle East.
However, my point is, there are some people that are clearly just saying whatever Trump does is right.
And there are a lot of people more on the left saying no matter what Trump does, he's wrong.
A good example being Chris Murphy, who in 2019 said Trump should be organizing like the removal of Maduro.
He's way more dangerous.
And then now today saying it's an illegal attack on Venezuela.
But the big picture here is this: the concern I have always with regime change operations, intervention, even when it is in our backyard and smoothly done, like this, is potential destabilization.
So let me just say this right away because I know everyone is aching to hear my opinions.
I talked about it in the morning show, but for those that are just watching IRL, this is, I'm lukewarm on this operation.
I can very easily say a few things.
Venezuela aggresses upon us all the time.
They are in our backyard, right?
We are operating in the Gulf of America, sorry, Gulf of America.
Don't misgender it.
And Venezuela does as well.
And Venezuela does manufacture drugs.
Many of those drugs are sent to this country.
And so the question is: the way I describe it is like this: if you had a neighbor across the street from you who kept shooting guns and had drug dealers coming out of his house, and it was attracting homeless people and criminals, and they started hanging out on your property, and you had to keep coming out and stopping people from breaking stuff on your property.
At what point do you call the police and say, I want you to take that guy down by force?
Yeah, so a lot of the local reporting in Venezuela is saying that it was a civilian drone that got too close to the palace and the Venezuelans just unloaded on it.
Yeah, well, there's two points, and then a third to address that.
The first two, I think the reason why people are antsy about this, but have come around on this specific intervention, is because it's actually rare to see competency in these operations from the United States.
Like, for what it's worth, we're not the best at running an empire.
Like if you compare us to like these historic empires, we're not very good at conducting affairs.
And so people don't expect competency from these sorts of operations.
The fact that this was done in 88 minutes and an hour, Maduro's in a black bag back in New York Stewart blows people's minds.
And that's why people are like, wow, it's like, actually, if this is how we're going to conduct these operations, I do support these because I didn't expect that.
I did not factor that in.
The second point being, the United States clearly communicated what its foreign policy goals were in the Western Hemisphere.
And that's a breath of fresh air to people to say, we looked at the NSS.
It was very clear what we wanted to do in our backyard.
And then we went and did it.
There was no inconsistency what we saw with Libya, what we saw with Iraq, Afghanistan, you name it.
It was ambiguous.
There was not much communication to the American people.
None of it really made a lot of sense geopolitically.
The goals changed three years in.
A lot of different moving parts.
With this one, we literally said in the NSS, we are going to patrol our own neighborhood.
And then that's exactly what happened.
So no one felt like the blind was pulled down on them.
And then to Tim's point about the destabilization.
One thing that has to be factored in here is that the opposition party received like tremendous support in the last election.
They're currently in exile.
But presumably, if they do return to Venezuela, which is probably going to happen, they will have pretty popular support within Venezuela.
The military there probably come around.
There's a lot of reports of a lot of these generals and officers in the military were never loyalists to Maduro in the first place.
So it's very likely that if the United States does install the opposition, obviously that's been exiled, then it probably wouldn't be too hard to wrangle the country back under control.
So I'm hearing, you know, when Matt Walsh says, if the United States is going to go to another country and take their resources for us, then good.
And I'm seeing these people go, so you're saying that might makes right?
Let me just stress this for everybody.
Might makes.
That's it.
Right is not an equation.
It doesn't matter.
Your morality doesn't matter.
When the barbarian kicks your door in, burns down your house and steals your gold.
You can complain all day and night about what was moral and what was unjust.
But guess what?
He did.
China will do it.
I love this viral clip.
I don't know if you guys saw it.
Where a Venezuelan was like, to all the people claiming that they only went in and removed the Maduro for oil, what did you think China and Iran were doing in our country?
It's all for the oil.
I'm not justifying it or saying it's good.
I'm making the point that a praying mantis will chop off the head of another bug to eat it.
And we don't go, it's evil.
No, it's a bug preying upon something.
You know, I was thinking about this in terms of someone was talking to me about the threats of violence, and they said you must get a lot of enemies in your line of work.
And I thought about it for a second, and I was like, you know, I don't really care for the phrase enemies, to be honest.
I mean, I'm not trying to be naive or anything.
But my point is, if a grizzly bear is walking through the forest and wants me to maul me to death, do I call it my enemy?
No, we don't refer to it that way.
Grizzly bear is going to do what grizzly bear does.
Humans are going to do what humans do.
And certainly I understand the distinction of what enemy means.
A person targeting me, they don't like my ideology.
My point is, in the grand scale of the world, everyone's going to justify whatever they have to do to steal from everybody else.
What we want on this planet is no more war.
We don't want it.
We want to work that away.
The point, I suppose, is we're not there.
We are not at a point where we can go to China and say, guys, please stop engaging in warfare and illicit activities.
Hey, Venezuela, we tried this with sanctions.
I believe that the United States is arguably one of the most noble when it comes to war, despite all of its failings.
And people are going to argue, how could you say that, Tim?
We invaded Iraq and Afghanistan on lies.
Uh-huh.
And everyone else does substantially worse.
I'm not saying we are good.
I'm saying the most noble.
And that's a low bar.
My point is the first thing we did was we told Venezuela, stop giving oil to Iran, who is funding terrorists, who are bombing things in the Middle East and destabilizing the region.
Now, I can make the argument, why are we involved in the Middle East?
Fine, everybody can.
But the point is, we first said, guys, please no.
They told us to go F ourselves.
We told Iran, if you're going to do dirty things, we're going to sanction you.
I think sanctions are a good thing.
We don't want to go to war.
We don't want boots on the ground.
So we say, we're not going to buy and trade with you.
I think that's fair.
I got no obligation to buy from you or trade with you.
And I could say everybody, stop trading with them.
We don't want war.
So we're going to do it this way.
Well, Venezuela bypasses that.
Sooner or later, you have to say, I am willing to assert authority or I'm not.
If the United States is going to allow Venezuela to allow Iran to come in and build bases, create a hub, and China as well, and they're going to start selling massive amounts of oil to China to bypass our sanctions and our system and fund wars against us.
It is not a simple, there's no reality.
There's no zero-sum game.
Sooner or later, China is going to make moves against us, and they already are.
And they do it every single day.
And the question is, what are our intentions?
And my view is this.
We don't want war and we avoided all costs.
Prepare for war.
Because if you don't, China will take everything.
Iran will take everything.
So that's why when I see these people who are like, intervention is always bad no matter what.
And I'm like, dude, sooner or later, something happens, whether you want it to or not, and you're in a fight.
Okay.
Like I gave the analogy earlier about your neighbor with guns.
I've been in situations in Chicago.
I don't go to my neighbor's house and say, I'm going to fight you.
No, but they're flinging dog crap on my lawn.
Do I just sit there and say, well, I don't want to fight, so I'm going to let them do it.
In fact, the French, right before World War II popped off, when the Germans invaded Poland and took Poland, the French had about two weeks to invade Germany and attack.
They declared war and they just sat there because there's still this hope of like, maybe if we just appease, maybe they'll just stop.
Bro, when there's a belligerent force on the move, they don't just stop.
You can pray all you want, but at some point, you need to stop the belligerence.
And that's, I'm not, this is not a, I'm not like qualifying the Venezuelan shit because I don't know.
It is like a bastion of defense for our Gulf of America, protecting the Panama Canal, and it removes the influence of the Chinese in Venezuela, which also helps.
Are these people opposed to this operation literally of the mindset that never for any reason should we be involved in a conflict outside of our borders?
So my point is, I don't want a war in Venezuela and I don't want any destabilization.
However, that's why I say I'm lukewarm on this because we didn't go to war.
We removed the guy who was aggressing upon us in our backyard and allowing our adversaries to operate in our hemisphere, in our region.
I mean, at a certain point, we have to say, guy, stop.
Like, bro, if you keep throwing things at me, I'm going to hit you.
Okay, I don't want to hit you.
This is the self-defense argument we always make on this show.
No, you don't go out and just shoot a guy who's pissing you off.
But when they caught, like, when they actually threaten your life, they are walking onto your property.
I talk about this in terms of like West Virginia versus, say, New Jersey.
New Jersey says if a guy breaks in your house, you can't defend yourself.
Okay, that's insane.
Now, don't get me wrong.
If you told me you were going to leave your house, walk to a neighbor's house because he was threatening you, and then you're going to shoot him, I'm going to say, yeah, that you're going to go to jail for that.
But we're talking about with Venezuela, a guy aggressing upon us, and we're calling the cops on him.
We removed one guy because we tried sanctions and it didn't work.
Again, I'm not saying it was the right move, and I think there are great risks here.
I'm just saying this is not an easy circumstance like Afghanistan, where we can say sending thousands of troops for 20 years to this country made no sense.
And this is like what people need to understand about Trump and why Trump is a departure from previous administrations is because Trump is a foreign policy realist fundamentally.
Like he tweeted back in 2012, he was talking about the Iraq war and he was like, why didn't we get the oil?
That was his question.
Because he accurately views the United States as an empire.
We're kind of post-republic at this point.
We are an empire.
So if we're going to conduct these sort of foreign policy interventions, like Tim's saying, a lot of people in America aren't keeping up with the geopolitical ramifications.
But beyond that, this is the important point regarding the Trump doctrine is that he fundamentally views every single country at the negotiating table as self-interested.
And that is a massive departure from previous administrations.
Previous administrations are like, we have these alliances.
Adam is here.
Alliance is here.
There's an axis of evil.
Trump treats every country the same.
He says they're looking out for their people.
They're self-interested.
I'm going to behave self-interested.
I'm going to look out for the interest of Americans.
I feel like the actions of the Democratic Party over the past several years was a lesson intentionally done to teach people like me why we have intervention.
That is, Democrats willing to arrest Trump's lawyers in a violation of the Constitution and the media willing to lie to cover it up makes me go, well, I guess if you're unwilling to defend your world and your views, people will aggress upon you in evil ways.
And the realization there, I'm half kidding, obviously.
My point is we've always known that evil people will do evil things.
And the argument often made, which we've talked about to a great extent on this show, is if we don't, China will.
If not China, somebody else.
Russia will.
So the question is, do you want to be under the boot of a Chinese unipolar power?
No, we don't.
Well, here's the reality, guys.
By all means, I can talk about the real problems with regime change war and intervention.
And that is destabilization of regions, which screws us over.
Like, the rise of ISIS was not good for our interests.
Unless, of course, Obama was just doing it to screw with Syria and have a proxy war.
But it looks like we continually, like the Mujahideen makes Al-Qaeda, we get 9-11.
If you want to make the argument, none of it, if you believe that 9-11 was an inside job, then perhaps maybe your argument is the U.S. should stop it.
It'll all go away.
I don't think so.
I think if the U.S. backs down and lets Maduro and the Venezuelans do whatever they want, China bypasses everything that we've done.
And the end result is this.
It doesn't matter what you're for or against.
The petrodollar falls and the American economy collapses.
I'm not saying one thing is right or one thing is wrong.
I'm asking you what you want.
It's an honest question.
Do you like the economy in the United States?
Now, many people are going to say, no, it's bad.
Okay.
Do you want it to get worse?
Of course not.
Well, the U.S. economy is propped up on the petrodollar and the U.S. stealing oil from other countries.
And I'm saying that in a very crude manner.
You want to get the specifics?
The U.S. enforces the petrodollar, which makes other countries buy U.S. dollars to buy oil.
The contract with the Saudis ended, and Trump needs to restart that.
If we don't have it, you will come to realize the U.S. does not export enough to create a strong economy.
And then you'll wonder why laptops cost $10,000.
Your car will be $100,000.
unidentified
The thing is, the leftists are like, oh, Trump's a war criminal.
If it's bad for the communists, we should be kidnapping a bunch of communists.
Guys, guys, we've got this big story from CNN, and I want to first start by saying I have deep concerns about U.S. intervention in Venezuela, but I wholeheartedly support the invasion of Greenland.
Trump threats stretch far and wide since his Venezuela strike.
I'm kidding, by the way, but I'm sure that'll get taken out of context.
Apparently, Trump has passively threatened to take Greenland by force and Iran.
And now you've got a bunch of MAGA people tweeting out or posting an X, who's next.
If we can remove a government in 90 minutes, it's worth knowing the 160th SAR, basically the Nightstalkers, the guys that fly the choppers for the special forces.
They've been making a lot of moves to Europe right now, and I've read a lot of chatter that says that there's a lot of special forces guys going to be.
My take on Greenland is that I know people are hyped up with adrenaline right now.
And it's like, look, the sneak attack worked.
Like, okay, the Germans were able to take Poland fast, and then they snuck attack France.
We could take Greenland, but you better believe the whole world, that would change everything about the liberal economic order's view of the United States.
But I do think that they're actually, I do think they're being more honest about it than anything else.
Like they picked up Maduro.
That's the justification of drugs.
But like Trump was saying, you know, it's about the oil.
It's about the fact that they stole stuff.
And there's one more point when it comes to Venezuela that I want to make.
Like in living memory, this was a thriving country with a capitalist society.
There are people that are in their 50s that remember what it was like.
So it's far more likely that these people are going to be like, yeah, we want to go back to the way that it was than to say, oh, we want to see another one.
And I'm not making the point that Iran is the same thing as Venezuela.
Venezuela and Iran are two very, very different populations.
There is a large percentage of Iran that doesn't like the Ayatollahs.
There's a lot of people that consider themselves Persians.
They don't consider themselves Iranians.
And they're having a massive civil unrest there now, anyways.
And I'm not saying that the U.S. should go in, although it might be happening considering what we talked about with the SOAR with the 160th going over to Europe.
We know that this plan has been, was hashed like five, six months ago, and it's been in development since seven months ago.
It's about six or seven months ago.
So the reason they were laying this out and saying this is like purely about drugs is because they knew they were going to blackbag Maduro and bring him to the Southern District of New York.
Because when they were creating it, they were neighbors and they said, if you decide in the future you want to join, you can.
And, you know, I was talking to a guy in West Virginia about it.
He says, yeah, but Virginia would never allow it.
And I says, why do we as Americans accept the idea that a despot 500 miles away can tell us how to live when the foundation of this country was telling a despot 3,000 miles away he can't tell us how to live?
If the people of Nook say, we don't want Denmark, we want America, then Denmark can shove it.
The idea that the Danish are like, it's ours and you can't buy it.
That's not up to you.
If the 56,000 people in Greenland hold a legitimate vote and say, we don't want to be a part of your country, we want to join the United States, then Denmark can shove it.
It is true if that were real, but what they'll do is the CIA will send protesters over there, pay them the whole USAID thing to make it seem like a color they really want it.
So I'm wondering if the prime minister of Denmark or of Greenland is realizing the writing's on the wall, let's make a deal and get out of here.
Let's leave and go to the U.S. if he's going to no longer be the prime minister within the next couple weeks, if the king's going to have him removed through the governor general or whatever.
One thing we got to consider here, too, is like Greenland is this has been what the United States has been fighting against like since its inception is it's trying to buck the old world's order, like the way that the old world conducts themselves.
And Greenland is really, the Danish inherited Greenland from their ancestors, from the Vikings who conquered all these territories and whatnot.
And so it's like the fact that they're even sovereign over it in the first place is hilarious because the society that conquered Greenland in the first place is no longer there.
The Danish now are like just metrosexuals.
unidentified
In my point of view, I think Greenland was promised to us 250 years ago.
I'm in favor of, you know, I can't remember what the do we had on the show, but I was like, hey, I got an idea.
We got all this land owned by the federal government, by the Bureau of Land Management.
How about we divvy that up amongst the black population, descendant of slaves, and give you your mule?
And he was like, he was a social justice guy, and he goes, okay.
And then I was like, hey, look, my attitude is the federal government shouldn't have it.
The people have it, and I don't care how the people get it.
So if the argument is y'all want reparations, 40 acres and a mule, let's take it from the federal government because it's all this territory in the Rockies that's being held by the government that we can't have access to.
Technically, you know what I love about the Commonwealth is that it is, when you look it up, the people who live in Commonwealth countries are delusional.
And Ian brought this up a long time ago, and you're correct that King Charles is the king of Canada, and he does have the authority to dissolve Parliament, just like he does in the UK.
However, although it's written down he can, whenever you ask someone from there, they go, he can't.
And I'm like, now the question is, why do you think he can't?
Because he can't.
But it's written down that he can.
The king of England is also the king of Australia and Canada and New Zealand, all these Commonwealth countries.
The monarchy is so cucked because it's like, if Canada, if he's like, I'm dissolving Parliament in Canada, like whatever, the Canadian Parliament go, no.
I know the segment isn't about Canada, but we got to reform the conversation about Canada to make them want to join the U.S. instead of being a British puppet.
Well, because the reason Canada has a monarchy is not because they feel like this distinct connection to their Anglo-history and they want to maintain that connection.
It's because America Canadians are like the most insecure people on planet Earth because their society is pretty much identical to the United States in every way.
If you look around the world, there's not two countries more culturally similar than the United States and Canada.
But to that point, is like because of that insecurity, they have to latch on to whatever does make them distinct from the United States.
So the only reason they have the monarchy is purely out of spite.
Like, that's the reason why Canada's monarchy, like pro-monarchy people, are typically left-wing, and then the anti-the pro-Republic people are typically right-wing.
That's not the case anywhere else on earth.
But in Canada, they suddenly turn and he's a trad with our Anglo-History and blood.
And it's like, they just hate America, and that's so gay.
Governor Tim Waltz has dropped out of the 2026 Minnesota governor's race amid the chrism over handling of fraud.
CBS News Reporting on his opportunity in the new year to give a shout out to Barry Weiss for doing a tremendous job over at CBS.
Because check this out: here I am looking at CBS mainstream media news reporting overtly that fraud is a very real thing in their state.
In the article about the ongoing Somali daycare fraud, they point out there's been arrests.
You get all these news outlets like CNN.
CNN ran an article saying the Somali, the Somali daycares operating in Minnesota are operating legally, according to Minnesota investigators.
And then CBS is like, since 2021, there's been 96 indictments over people for fraud in these daycare centers.
Why does the media lie so much?
They are, you know, we could only make assumptions, but we know they do.
Barry Weiss came into CBS and she's reforming it.
There was that documentary on CCOT that she was like, nah, you're not publishing that.
And then the journalists came out and lied and said that she was, you know, like basically glazed in the Trump administration.
When the reality was they made a fake activist documentary that omitted statements from CCOT and the government, and all they did was collect old statements and rehashed them.
Anyway, CBS is doing a better job now.
Tim Waltz has dropped out.
And it is clear that the Somali fraud story that got something like 160 million views from Nick Shirley's documentary is the pressure as to why.
My opinion, the Democrats are in on the take.
The reason why these liberals are running full speed to defend the Somali daycare fraud is because they know that they're benefiting from it.
It is the micro-level USAID scam.
The state gives money to daycares, and the daycares give money to politicians to run for office.
And now it's under threat and it's going to be gutted.
And so the liberals and their fake media are claiming it's all fake, nothing to see here.
But guess what?
Tim Waltz is gone.
unidentified
And even if they are operating legally, they're like babysitting their own children and other people's children that are from Somalia.
So they come here and make a daycare for the Somalian community that just came here from Somali.
The thing that Nick Shirley pointed out is, I'm going to say this.
We don't know that every business he highlighted was committing fraud, but it is interesting, I will call it a preponderance of evidence that you have a building with like 15 medical centers with no customers.
And when he went and asked for prices, they couldn't give him any.
That is evidence of fraud.
I'm not saying it's proof.
I'm saying when you got a building full of all of the same business and no customers coming or going, I got questions.
Yeah, because all these other religions, like, we got to compete with Christmas.
Everyone loves Christmas.
We got to go with that.
unidentified
If they do come out with their own holiday, what they can do is strap bombs to the people and then shoot them in the sky and those are the fireworks, right?
Bro, they're finding a lot of this fraud all over the place.
I got to be honest.
I do think it's fair to say to a great degree, this country is the fraudsters in politics, which include Democrats and Republicans, and the hardworking rubes.
There's a guy right now listening to this show.
I see you, Bill.
You just got home from work.
You put on IRL.
You put in your full day's work.
And you're wondering what you got to do to be able to feed your kids as the inflation is getting worse.
You're the rube.
We're the rube.
You're doing the hard work and paying the taxes, and the scammers are defrauding everybody and taking our money for these schemes.
But I think it's stemming from the frustration of being like, bro, I've been bankrupting myself, paying you a third of my income, and now you're just letting billions go like 20% of it.
Actually, it would be the greatest thing ever if like someone went to one of these Somali daycares and the lady came out, clearly like a Somali woman in hijab.
You can just, and that's what the message I want Gen Z to understand is you might be looking at a story right now and everyone's like, oh, we all know about the fraud.
Like with Zoron, I think one thing that's going to happen, this is going to be a very unpopular take.
And I'm saying this as an exiled New Yorker, very right-wing.
So I have a skin of the game, so to speak.
I think primarily what's going to be happening throughout the Zoron era is he's going to be rage baiting conservatives like as much as he possibly can.
And I think the most consequential result of Zoron's New York City, so to speak, is just more vape shops open.
And the city just, the city just slowly gets worse.
I think he is actually kind of part of the manager's decline.
My case for this is because New York City is actually driven by the city council.
So you saw like Zoron rolled back all the Eric Adams executive orders.
That's all he can really do from the mayor's office.
Like most of this is going to be him rage baiting, him agitating because he knows that if he can sort of become like a boogeyman for the right, so to speak, which it wouldn't really be a boogeyman because he is a legitimate threat, that legitimizes him.
That legitimizes him in the Democratic Party.
And that is really what the attempt is because what Zoron's trying to do is he's trying to clear that pathway for Democratic socialists in 28 and 32.
So like, yeah, I'm not even as concerned about what Zoron's going to do in New York City.
Like I said, I think he's primarily should be a rage baiter because what he's trying to do is catch all the flack from the right wing so that way he can legitimize his ideology within the Democrat Party.
So then someone could become a governor.
Someone could even become president with the same ideology as him because he swept the mind, so to speak.
I think you're right that he's looking to drag the Democrat Party to the left, but I don't think that it's an unpopular position in the Democrat Party overall because someone like Rokana was talking about the billionaire tax in California.
And the way to do that isn't by scoring electoral victories.
The way to do that is to rage bait the right to then be viewed as this rock star, to be viewed as this martyr.
People on the right do that.
People on the left do that.
If you can draw the ire of the other party, then what's going to happen is people on the left are going to say, wow, they perceive this guy as a threat.
While they perceive this guy as a viable threat to what they're trying to do, we should emulate him.
Let me take y'all boys back in time and talk about poker.
So there's a lot of laws at the states that say you can't play poker with more than $10.
Now, when I talk to regular people about that, they're like, yeah, it's a fake law that was passed to basically say you can't play poker.
No, You're wrong.
When the law was passed, $10 was a lot of money.
So they were basically saying, guys, fine, you can play poker, but so long as you're not playing with a million dollars, you can play with $10,000.
And for most people, that's more than you'd need.
Inflation happens, and now $10 certainly doesn't mean anything.
The point is, what's going to happen with New York is they are going to say, the millionaires and the billionaires.
Guess what?
You bought a house 10 years later, it's worth a million dollars.
You're a millionaire now, and we're going to take your property because you're a millionaire.
And you're like, wait, wait, wait, hold on.
I bought this property and it was like 300K and I was paying my mortgage off and inflation happened and the prices skyrocketed and now I own a million dollar home and they're going to say, and you are being forced to sell it and we're going to take it from you.
So the problem is, you know it's funny I was watching I think it was like Seinfeld or something and it's an old, like an early 90s economy and someone goes like he makes six figures and they go six figures.
Yeah, I remember when I was a kid, someone making six figures was like yeah yeah, because upper middle in 1992, like a hundred thousand would be the equivalent of like 300k today or something like that.
And then what they could do with my concern, what they might be doing is prepping for a market crash where they're going to put 80% of their resources into gold and silver.
They're going to double the value and then they're going to crash the economy in half and maintain their wealth while everyone else loses 50%.
I don't think Charles Schwab is going to steal his money.
I don't think the investment firm is going to steal his money that way.
They could.
The point is, if he wants to find out how much money he has, he has to schedule a meeting, sit down, pull up the paperwork, go through the portfolio start, calculate.
It's sort of like if I invest heavily in a company and then the government prints a trillion dollars and pumps that company and I make a million bucks, I'm not happy about that because they're destroying my economy to make me rich.
If you are as rich as Andrew Tate, what does that really mean?
He can have anything he wants.
He can, look at Elon Musk.
He's building starships to go to Mars.
That's rich.
Rich for Elon Musk, it means he can literally go to a person and be like, within a person's moral boundaries, of course, but he can say, do a thing and I'll give you money.
When you are truly wealthy, it means you have control over systems.
They say wealth is like a, or someone has said it, or at least I thought it, is that it's a combination of having money, having resources, and being healthy.
Like, if you're not healthy, it doesn't matter what your bank account says.
Like, again, you know, I actually think I appreciate this conversation, Ian, because you're exemplifying how the average person doesn't understand wealth.
I'm less concerned with making money and more concerned with increasing the value of money because it's very, like, this goes back to now you're a millionaire because of inflation.
What I'm saying is the better question to ask on minimum wage stuff is, excuse me, sir, random guy.
I need you to clean the floors of my building and I will pay you.
When he says, how much will you pay me?
He's not actually concerned about the number of dollars.
The underlying principle is, what can I get for my labor?
So when the Democrats are like, increase the minimum wage, nothing will change.
Now, an individual might say, that sounds great because if I had $15 instead of $10, I could buy an extra cheeseburger.
The problem, the man who makes the cheeseburger still wants the same amount of time and energy for his work.
The dollar value is meaningless.
So when we talk about having money and spending it and making money more valuable, when you mention we should cut costs and make money more valuable, if you do that across the board, it's meaningless.
The amount of labor an individual requires of you will stay the same.
If the U.S., if the U.S. economy improves or foreign economies tank, then yeah, we can convince people to work for cheap.
That's always it, right?
So we go to countries that are poor and say, we'll pay you dirt to do it because it's the best you're going to get.
So yeah.
The issue of wealth and the main point of this conversation, especially with like the silver stuff, and we got off on a tangent because the silver is freaky, is rich people, what does it mean to be wealthy?
It means you have control of other people.
That's it.
It means you want a building, you want a giant warehouse with a skate park in it.
Can you convince someone to do that work?
What do you have to do to tell a guy something so that he will start building something for you?
The point of this whole thing is once you have a certain amount of money, then your money is going to make money to the point where you could never spend what you've made.
I went to, I was at an airport once and I went to like one of those sandwiches, like one of those deli coolers where you can get drinks and sandwiches all pre-made.
And I grabbed a sandwich and I put it on the counter with like an unsweet tea.
And the lady looks at me and she goes, the clerk, like the employee, she goes, that's $10.
And I was like, okay.
And I pull out my card and she goes, no, that's $10.
And then I was like, okay.
She's like, I'm just letting you know.
I'm like, do you want me to get two?
Like, the employee herself was shocked and needed to let me know how terrifying it was.

We got Token MAGA.
He says, hey, Lance, how did those two loses losses to the Blackhawks feel?
Two losses?
Yeah.
unidentified
I'm confused.
Oh, okay, yeah.
I mean, we're a really, really good team.
We have the most competitive teams that are in our area.
So, yeah.
I've seen the Blackhawks lose to the Dallas Stars in person before, so I wouldn't be talking.
Well, the point is like they went woke right before Endgame with Captain Marvel.
That's when all the activists started tainting everything.
And so they get Captain Marvel in Endgame, and Endgame had that really cringe moment where Thanos headbutts Captain Marvel and she doesn't flinch, and the audience groaned in my theater.
From there, they've done a whole bunch of dejected, weird garbage that made no sense.
unidentified
Even in the other scene in Endgame, we're like Peter Parker, literally Spider-Man, gets saved by all the women, and they're like just walking in slope.
They'd be like, bro, if Trump came out and said, no, we're not going to do anything about Maduro, all the Democrats would be like, oh, Trump is weak, letting Maduro run rampant.
Trump's only mistake with the Venezuela thing was when the planes were about to enter Venezuelan airspace, he should have tweeted out, Maduro needs to be left alone.
Venezuela is its own country.
And then all the Democrats would come out and be like, I can't believe he would let this happen.
And then an hour later, be like, oh, okay, we got him.
And then also, like, something else is this is like a direct economic hit to Russia and Iran because, and it's, it's, it's, it's indirect because when you drop oil prices, when you flood the global economy with Venezuelan oil, all it's going to do is drive the price of oil down.
What is Russia's primary export?
Oil.
What is Iran?
Oil.
So these two countries that are completely dependent on oil in many ways are now going to not be, they're going to have to play ball with whatever the global oil price is, and it's going to completely crush them.
Yeah, a lot of people are a lot of people aren't, and then there's going to be some people online that take these people at their word, and then they won't pay their taxes, and they're going to get arrested.
unidentified
See, I would love to pay my taxes if we start kidnapping more communists.
Yeah, but as people, when your government is doing, you know, bowing to the corporations' whims instead of the people's whims, 95% plus percent of the time, I understand the frustration.
Every single case that the Supreme Court hears that they hear in favor of the, or decide in favor of the person, the civilian or whatever, like that's the people using the court system for redress of grievance.
The idea that every Trump supporter, not every, but they're all like this big movement among conservatives being like, we're not going to pay our taxes.
And then next year, it's like 17,833 conservatives arrested and put in prison.
Depending on how you break it down, actually vision can be broken down into different senses.
Color, not only can you see movement, but you can see colors as well.
And some people can't.
So that's an interesting point because if you said sight is a sense, but someone's colorblind or someone's tone deaf, are you saying they're half-sensed?
No, they can still see movement, but they can't see color.
We need to do a show where we talk about how the Jews are bad, but slowly every day, what we're actually doing is incrementally changing the definition of Jew.
So it's like you start with saying, yeah, that Jewish guy who runs the media thing is a bad guy, but he also likes golfing.
Then the next day you're like, so these Jewish guys who go golfing, after a few months, you eventually jumped so many steps, you're now talking about race car drivers.
And now you're like, those race car drivers.
And everyone's like, yeah.
And they totally forgot they're talking about Jews.
And then you actually just drop the innuendo and literally just talk about golfers and start naming like Scotty Scheffler and being like, these golfers.
But obviously, we can only hire the people we know who exist.
And so if there's people who are fans of the show, people we've met, people who are members or whatever, and we already know them, not by any legal means, but just by proximity, they're more likely to hear about opportunities.
Hyman was filmed last year getting into a heated argument with Alexis Black, a convicted wife beater who is transitioning.
Oh, okay.
Hyman had filed complaints against Black for the woman's locker room and accused Black of exposing himself and harassing her in the locker room, which he denied.
Black, formerly Grant Freeman, pleaded guilty in 2022 to savagely beating his wife, Alexis Freeman, while still living as a man in Ohio.
I mean, to your point, though, like, there was a time 20 years ago where you'd hear about this and you'd laugh because it was so out of the, like, it was so out of left field.
It was so crazy.
Be like, well, of course they threw him in jail and you'd make jokes about it.
But now it's just like this kind of stuff is just permeating the culture so bad.
You're just like, it would be like Jesus fucking Christ.
And the fact is, like, the first public celebrity apology because you have like actors like raping women and then like, well, you know, it's Hollywood.
