DOJ Subpoenas Democrats IN MN For OBSTRUCTION Civil War Is Beginning Show less
The Department of Justice has issued subpoenas for Tim Waltz, Ellison, and Frey, Democrat officials in Minnesota, over alleged obstruction of ICE immigration enforcement.
Subpoenas, we don't actually know what that will mean, but it's called by CBS a significant escalation in the conflict between the states and the federal government.
Now, with all due respect, I know a lot of people aren't watching the Bill O'Reilly show.
I don't mean to be a dick, but he did say something rather interesting on his show recently that there are 10 states that are effectively in rebellion against the federal government.
Eight that are officially at the governmental level obstructing federal law enforcement, and two that are kind of on the line.
They're obstructing, but they're still negotiating with Trump.
This, my friends, dare I say, we are looking at the open door to what may become civil war.
It has begun.
And it's not just about states telling the federal government, screw off, we're going to fight you.
It's about people ransacking private vehicles in Minnesota.
Did you see this story?
Running up to random vehicles because they think it's ICE, attacking random people in the street for wearing certain clothing.
There's a video of a guy in a car.
They run to the car, surround it, and try to drag him out.
But here's where it gets really spicy.
You may be saying, Tim, we know all of this.
Tell me something that's more definitive.
Right now, Maryland has officially decided they have voted to remove the last Republican seat in their state.
Across the board in Democrat states, they are redistricting in mid-decade, which is shocking.
Additionally shocking, Republicans were trying to do it too.
And they're eliminating all the Republican seats, and they all agree to do it.
In the meantime, Republicans start doing it to a certain degree, but in Indiana, they're going, well, I have honor, so I won't.
The point is this.
The states are explicitly stating, if we are controlled by Democrats, if the Democrats are saying if we're in power, we will strip all voices from the conservatives in our state.
This is from geographic hyperpolarization due to people moving from California to Colorado or California to Texas.
Now, inside these states, as Democrats take supermajorities, they are shutting out all Republican voices.
In Virginia, two days after Democrats took power, they have unleashed a barrage of new laws that will tax people, that will ban certain gas-powered items, and that will effectively make it impossible for a Republican to ever win again.
Now, along with all that, you may still be saying, sure, sure, that's politics.
Well, based on a new poll that just got released, Daily Wire Reporting, the sentiment for assassinations in this country now exceeds 50%, with many on the right even saying they believe that Zorhan Mamdani's assassination could be justified.
But man, when I see this news, I'm just like, if the states line up against each other, what's next?
It's pretty obvious, right?
Federal officials calling out state officials, they're fighting.
Well, we're going to talk about that more.
As I said before, we do got a great sponsor for you.
We got Bearskin.
You know, I'll tell you, when it hits the fan, you're going to want to make sure you get the best hoodie imaginable because you don't know when you'll get another one.

And I really do appreciate it.
Let's jump into the news we got from the DOJ, CBS News reporting, subpoenas issued to Waltz, Ellison, and Frey in probe alleging immigration obstruction.
The DOJ on Tuesday served subpoenas to the offices of multiple Democratic officials in Minnesota, including Governor Tim Waltz, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey in connection with a probe into an alleged conspiracy to impede federal immigration officers.
Three sources familiar with the matter told CBS News.
The subpoenas represent a significant escalation between the DOJ and Minnesota officials who have clashed over the Trump administration's intense crackdown against immigrants living in the state illegally.
They were served on the same day that Attorney General Pam Bondi arrived for a visit in Minnesota.
Multiple sources told CBS.
Now, I just want to say one thing really quick, because you guys know that I've been glazing CBS news since Barry Weiss took over.
I just want to make sure I point out they literally said immigrants living in the states illegally.
They didn't put migrants.
They didn't put innocent children.
They literally told the truth.
I respect that because no one else in the corporate press has been doing that.
I say subpoenas were sent in connection with a DOJ investigation into state and local officials to see if they may have conspired to impede federal officers from discharging their duties.
The Justice Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
A copy of a subpoena seen by CBS does not specify which criminal violations the department is probing.
However, multiple sources previously told CBS the primary statute being used as the basis for the probe is 18 USC 372, the same one that was used against some of the rioters who stormed the Capitol on January 6th.
It's like, well, Trump got arrested a year and a half ago.
That was a thing that was happening.
This is the first process.
I think for most people, because they watch movies and they read history books, if you're reading, like if you read an encyclopedia entry on the American Revolution, it'll say like a quick paragraph, like, due to an increase in taxes and violation of rights by the government, meetings were held by the founding fathers, which ultimately culminated in the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
And then a year later, they're like, we're signing a Declaration of Independence.
And you go, yeah, you said the letter, big deal.
And then three months later, you get a response from the Crown.
Regulars are showing up and they're like, they come all the time.
They regularly send regulars.
At a certain point, someone's going to be like, the regulars are coming as they run through the night to warn everybody.
And that's when everyone kind of wakes up to it.
So in the case of the Civil War, it didn't happen for like a year and a half or two years.
People don't know this.
They think the Civil War was like the South and the North met at Fort Sumter and then the South was like, I hear about the Clare Civil War.
And then the North was like, how dare you?
When actually, after the fight, there was still no civil war.
After the first battle of Bull Run, there was still no civil war, even though people were dead.
It wasn't until I think it was a year and a half to two years later they were like, hey, guys, this is a civil war.
I mean, the DOJ has got to get this right, obviously, when you're issuing this many subpoenas, a lot of charges to go around.
But a lot of people, again, on Twitter, but a lot of people that are legal experts have outlined the variety.
I mean, they have their pick of statutes that could bring charges forth under.
So it's, again, it's interesting that they've gone with 372 seeing as it was used in J6.
Again, people are pretty sour, even within MAGA.
Even the most loyal Trump supporters have soured on the DOJ, the DOJ's performance.
This could be the instance where they potentially win back, I think, a lot of people, including me, who have really felt like they've dropped the ball on him anyway.
I just want to give a quick shout out if you go to this Cornell Law School to AJ Palighgar, because I guess these are advertisements for lawyers in Florida.
I mean, this is something that, I mean, you've kind of been saying for a long time, civil war is coming.
And like you mentioned, the nothing ever happens people always kind of scoff at that.
But I think we're definitely seeing a culmination of, man, I mean, even before all of this really kind of stepped up a notch when it came to directly impeding these offices, you want to talk about these judges kind of letting immigrants like slip in through the back door of the courthouse so they don't, you know, get arrested by ICE.
I mean, this was already happening.
We're just seeing it at a scale that is really scary.
And now we're talking about, you know, judges getting assassination attempts put on them.
They're talking about we need to instigate laws to ensure that judges' addresses are removed.
You know, why wasn't this already a thing?
That's my question.
Like after the Kavanaugh assassination attempt, why wasn't this already a thing to remove the judges?
I don't, when I see the statements from like Mayor Frey and Tim Waltz, I don't believe these people are stupid.
They may be, but for different reasons, but I think they're fully cognizant of the truth.
They know what ICE is doing.
They know why ICE is doing it.
But they get their power, their luxury, their access from the left.
And so they're not going to give that up.
If they were to come out and say, I'm going to be honest with you guys, the American people voted for these actions.
And that means the people who live in Minnesota, who are here illegally, are going to have to go home.
And that's what democracy is.
If they said that, they'd be out of office and they'd be in the poorhouse in two seconds.
These are people who would rather say, burn the country down before taking me out of power.
And we all know what happens to people like that.
We've seen it in the Arab Spring.
These guys in these countries could have walked away, but they didn't want to.
Now, by all means, you can argue that, you know, the ousting or killing of a lot of these politicians was wrong, whatever your opinion is.
My point is, at a certain point, when there are people who are like, I should be in charge and I refuse to give up, they get removed, they get punished in some way.
I think, well, I think it's fair to say there is a conflict happening in this country.
And whoever loses is going to face the consequences.
Democrats are calling for putting Republicans in prison.
Republicans at the ground level are, but Republican politicians are just shoving their thumbs up there, button doing nothing.
Because otherwise he's just instigating and pissing them off to the point where when they do come back in power, it's going to be with an absolute vengeance.
And especially with the gerrymandering that we were kind of talking about before the show, you know, setting up like permanent electoral majority in these different states.
It's like, if we're going to do something, we need to actually fully do it.
Yeah, I mean, that's the thing is, like, I think there's a lot of people within the Trump administration that are aware of this.
I think Trump is aware of this, but a lot of people within the DOJ, especially, it doesn't seem that they understand that at this rate, with this level of escalation, with this level of radicalism that is like persistent on the left, this is the off-ramp.
Like, we are heading down the path of civil war.
This is the off-ramp as decisive, strong executive power.
There's no ands it for buts because the entire left-wing media and political activist soy waffen apparatus has been built on Trump as an evil fascist ISIS Gestapo.
There's no common ground with these people.
There's no like wrestling them back.
There's no, you know, debate to be had.
There's no market, there's no idea to sell in the marketplace of ideas like when these people back over.
It's like, no, the only thing they're going to respond to at this point is force.
And so, again, like you said, to your point, I mean, the spoon is great, but we need to nip this in the bud, right?
If you break the law, you will have your power taken from you.
If you uphold the law, we will help you maintain order and status.
That is, if you're a governor and the people of this country vote for a federal law to be enforced and you decide you're going to go to war with the federal government, jail.
If you decide, well, there may be a lot of angry people in my state, but this is how the system is supposed to work and you work with the federal government, then I believe the federal government should come to your assistance and do what they can to help maintain order and help you.
You're going to get voted out.
That's going to happen because your state's nuts.
But the federal government needs to go in and help manage this because the point I'm making, let me clarify.
You can't side with the lunatics running around smashing windows and beating people in the streets.
Because what I see from the streets, you see that video where someone did a drive-by with a squirt gun in Minnesota, drove by and sprayed the activists with water.
It's like nine degrees outside.
The locals are not happy that a bunch of whack-aloons are going nuts.
Majority of people probably don't know or care about what's going on.
It's always the extremists.
Now, what I hear from a lot of people in politics is, well, there will never be a civil war because regular people don't care.
And I'm like, I don't know, the 200,000 extremists on either side, as it always is, or Democrats seize power in the federal government and then levy war.
This issue that we're seeing in Minneapolis is more like bleeding Kansas.
Street level, merciless beatings, violence, law enforcement against extremists and protesters.
That's like bleeding Kansas.
People don't think it goes anywhere.
They think it's localized violence.
You know what really would kick things off?
If, first of all, looking at what's going on in Virginia, which we'll get into in a second with them changing the laws, 48 hours and they've basically just wiped out the state.
This is insane.
And everyone, I think, could have seen this coming.
Republicans are probably going to start fleeing.
Wealthy and business owners are probably going to start fleeing.
We're looking at something not too dissimilar from the Civil War.
That is, you've got this localized violence over an ideological issue related to immigration.
And we predicted this a year and a half, two years ago.
You're going to get a midterm, which will probably be contentious.
And then you're going to get a presidential election.
And should it be JD Vance or any other Republican who vows with a strong fist, we are going to continue and maintain our operations.
Democrats fought very hard in 1860 in the election to make sure they could keep their free labor, people who had no choice.
We've heard Democrats say time and time again, these people will do the jobs that no one wants to do.
We get it, okay?
You like your slaves.
Well, if Vance comes in and says, we're ending your second-class citizenry operations, this is where it goes national.
It's localized now in Minnesota and in other parts of the country too, California, Washington.
What happens if 2028 comes around and the Democrats realize you've lost and this is done?
Will we actually then see a stronger resistance?
Based on the level of escalation, I would say I think there's a possibility we get somewhere like that.
I don't know what it looks like and I don't know what happens in between.
But considering we're at the point where the DOJ has issued subpoenas against the governor, the mayor, and the AG, people are beating random people in the streets.
You had a woman shot and killed.
Again, I'm not talking about morality.
I'm just saying it did happen.
The escalation is there.
Maybe this is the one time where people go, guys, whoa, holy crap.
Yeah, I hope that kind of shifts people's perspective.
I know that a lot of Republicans are kind of flirting with this idea, let's withhold our votes from Republicans for failing to come through on a lot of the promises that they made when they were campaigning for election.
It's a tough calculation because, I mean, you can ask libertarians how that's worked for them, where they, again, withhold their votes expecting like a different, I understand that I guess to a degree, extensive executive power, again, these politicians is really more about holding them accountable to their promises.
So it's not a one-to-one, but generally, like, it's more about who's staffing these campaigns, who's sort of in charge of implementing policy more so than like reactiveness to the base.
That's just like the way that liberal democracy functions.
And until we escape that, I don't think you're going to see like decisive power wielded by, maybe by the executive to a certain degree, but certainly not by Congress.
What's new is that we are facing an unprecedented redistricting effort across the country.
Typically, redistricting is done on the 10, so 2010, 2020, 2030.
It's now 2026.
And in the past year, Democrats and Republicans have decided to eliminate political opposition in their states.
Now, I believe it was Republicans who kicked this off.
I'm not entirely sure.
And it is a bold and unprecedented move.
Now, conservatives have said, Republicans, full steam ahead.
Democrats responded with, let's play two.
So what happens when you have every state deciding to eliminate the rival political party from their state?
We went from geographic polarization.
This is people in California moving to Texas and Washington to Utah, people in New York to Florida.
You're getting hyper-concentrations of single political ideologies in certain areas.
That's the geographic hyperpolarization.
And now, with a weakened political base, Republicans in blue states and Democrats in red states are getting removed from the political equation as predicted with the latest being in Maryland.
Maryland's Redistricting Advisory Commission has recommended a new 8-0 congressional map and sent it to Westmore.
Christian Hines with the viral tweet saying, between this and Virginia, Democrats will have actually won the 25-26 phase of the redistricting wars, unless Indiana has a change of heart, Florida gets involved, or the VRA is struck down, the Voting Rights Act.
And if both of these states redraw dem favoring lines without any further action from red states, Democrats will probably have a 95-plus percent chance of flipping the House in November.
They wouldn't even need to flip any of the remaining toss-up seats around the country, including several districts they're already favored to win.
That is, based on this map from 270 to win, based on redistricting, if Republicans do not play the game as well, Democrats don't even need to win an election.
They don't need to campaign.
They don't need to spend money.
They will have just owned it based on demographics.
And the New York Times actually published a story on this saying, who will win the House?
Three maps tell a tale.
Take a look at this.
36 seats are most competitive.
18 are toss-ups.
26 redistricted or under discussion.
11 or so are in discussion.
Effectively, Democrats are going to win the House, which is extremely tight as it is, not by convincing the American people, but by in their states utilizing their majority powers to eliminate Republicans from the equation.
That means for the 40-plus percent of Republicans who may live in these states, you will no longer have a say and the Democrats are not going to let you ever have power again.
It's essentially going to be Democrat, you know, for eternity.
Washington is like that now.
And if they are, if they manage to do this in the United Nationally, they're going to pack the court.
They're going to add states.
They're going to do everything they can to make sure that Democrats don't ever lose again.
We were talking about this last night.
The Democrats thought that they had a permanent control of power when Barack Obama won.
They figured the Republicans were going to be relegated to a regional party, and it would be the real competition was going to be who the Democrat nominee was.
And they would have, you know, they would have whoever their guy was go against the Republican.
And of course, they would win.
If this happens, you can forget about ever having a Republican again.
Like it will be one party control, and then the rest of the whole United States will turn into California.
California's terrible budget situation, California's terrible immigration situation, California's inability to retain people, like all the people that, and globally, the United States is the last place to go.
So this is, it doesn't get more important than voting in this next coming election and in 2028.
And this is something that I was saying on the pre-show.
People like to say, oh, this is not the most important election.
Everyone always says this is the most important election.
Because we are human beings that exist in linear time, every election is the most important election ever because that's the only one you can vote in at that time.
The elections that happened in the past, you can't change them.
The elections that are coming in the future, you can't touch them.
So the only ones that matter are the ones that you can affect right now.
So the next election in 26 is the most important election ever after that, the 28 one is the most important ever.
If I were to tell you that, or let me just leave it like this.
Do you believe that the example I love using is Dave Rubin.
Dave Rubin is going to lead a group of angry, violent extremists to a corporate headquarters throwing firebombs because they censored him or someone else.
Now, if I told you that some progressive leftist did, you'd be like, what do you mean that happened yesterday in Minneapolis?
The point is conservatives don't get violent.
So the Republicans go, my only fear is the left.
That means if I actually stand up and say I should fight for this country, no one on the right's going to get my back and no one, and the left will try to kill me.
If I demure and just say, well, you know, we got to have decorum here, Republicans will only complain and the Democrats will leave my family alone.
This is something that we've talked about a little bit on the show.
The idea that Republicans are the reason why Democrats behave the way that they do or that the Republicans could do something to prevent them from behaving the way they do, I don't buy it at all.
That's why I was saying like this election that's coming up.
No matter what happens, the Democrats will do everything they can to consolidate power.
If the Republicans win, then the Republicans have a chance.
If they don't win, they're going to do everything.
They're going to stall.
The House will start impeachment hearings on Trump.
It doesn't matter whether they have any substance or not.
That's not the point.
They will do everything they can to hamstring the Trump administration.
And then come, you know, the presidential election, they're going to be like, see, the Republicans didn't do anything.
They didn't do all this stuff they promised you and et cetera, et cetera.
And they're going to hope that that's enough to get them over the finish line.
And if they win the presidency and still have the House and the Senate, they will annihilate the whole country.
I want to stress, because you said, Phil, that this is the most important election.
I think the point we're seeing here with this redistricting war is that that time has come and gone.
The time for these elections was before anyone realized.
We have a conversation several months ago, just after Charlie Kirk was assassinated.
And I said, any move we make to preempt what we believe is coming will feel premature.
To cite Godwin's law, the Jews in Nazi Germany who fled fled early.
And the ones who didn't were killed.
And the ones who didn't were like, you're crazy.
Like, it's not going to happen.
And if you read the literature on this stuff, the reason why people stayed behind and were like, I don't think it'll ever get that bad.
So after Charlie Kirk was assassinated, we ripped the conversation.
And I said, you know, look, we're discussing whether or not we can keep doing this show the way we do it because we're relatively exposed, right?
We don't.
Let me say it like this.
Back in the day, if you had a primetime TV show that got 10 million listeners, 10 million, it was you.
No other station could broadcast.
That meant you owned 100% of the sponsorship rights.
10 million people would watch you.
You'd sell an ad for 10 million.
You'd make a ton of money.
I'm saying for 10 million viewers, you had millions of dollars.
You hired bodyguards, crazy security.
Today, this show probably gets 10 million views or more per episode, not on this channel or on Rumble or on podcasts, but because clips are made.
And the show is then shared all over the place.
And so what happens is my face, Ian's face, our guest, Phil, Tate, Serge, everybody who's on the show has exposure to tens of millions of people through these clips, especially when they're taken out of context.
This creates a massive risk, death threats, et cetera.
And we don't have the ability to monetize against those views.
So we get a massive spike in attention without the ability to generate the revenue that typically was used to provide security and this access.
It's funny because after that conversation, then a couple of months later, we had a drive-by shooting.
Three shots were fired at our property.
Hence, we're now in Florida trying to figure out how to move forward.
Right now, what I'm looking at is the elections that mattered were three, four, five years ago, the elections that mattered.
Virginia, the election that mattered was the one that just happened, to be completely honest, because we'll jump in in a second, but they've basically just steamrolled.
I mean, the Democrats have made moves in Virginia in 48 hours that scream communist revolution.
And again, we'll get into it.
There's no election that's going to fix that.
And when we go into 2026, Democrats are now eliminating Republican votes from their states.
There's no election that's going to fix the House.
The states have already decided the House will be as they decide.
It will be Democrat.
So you get to vote for your candidate and they're going to win.
But guess what?
Based on the demographic makeup of the districts that they've decided, if you're a Democrat living in a Republican district, you may get through in Indiana because they didn't change it.
But in most of these Democrat states, Republican votes are effectively gone.
Well, but I mean, just like you're a relatively new addition to the team in the past year, and even people know who you are.
They watch the show.
Surge as well, Kellen Carter getting recognized.
We were talking about it, and it's just like everywhere we go, everyone's like, we watch the show.
And it's actually quite simple.
The people who are moderates who lived in blue areas in the past four years moved to Texas and Florida.
So this area is a high density of people who share a moral worldview with us.
In West Virginia, which is very based, it's true, but borders Virginia, where when we go for food five minutes south, we're in Virginia where people are flying pride flags.
You go to Maryland, we go to some of our favorite restaurants, they fly a pride flag above City Hall, and that's where the conflict exists.
Hence, someone does a drive-by.
So the question now is, what do you do considering this change has already happened?
Well, and Tim, I totally agree with, because I don't really buy like the, you know, the idea that it's like, okay, well, every election ramps up importance.
I totally agree.
Like 1992, the Republican primary, if Pat Buchanan won, we would have been out of this mess already.
Like we would have mopped this up 30 years ago.
And because this illustrates with the redistricting battle, this illustrates the point that I think Oren McIntyre had made where it's like, look, all a democracy is at this point, all an election is at this point is simply a census.
All you're doing is just counting what the demographics are of your district.
There's no like swinging voters anymore.
And it drives me absolutely like mad that the Republicans, their only like way they're actually fighting back is like this wholesome chungus like voter drives that you're seeing where they're like, I registered 10,000 people at a gas station and it's like sick.
And then the election comes along, we get blown out.
And it's like, what are we doing?
The only way we're actually going to compete again is like returning what the Democrats are actually doing, which is again, just shoring up your vote.
I mean, there's literally, there's a show that Republicans have no idea what time it is.
There's literally a state senator in Indiana.
His name was Mike something along those lines.
And when Trump called Tim Waltz retarded, which was hilarious and true, he literally came out and he was like, I'm a man of integrity and like I know people in my family that have Down syndrome or whatever.
And I remember talking with Shane Smith, the CEO, who was always a really good dude as far as I knew, despite, you know, obviously there's public criticisms.
He was talking about, I think he was 45 at the time and I was 28 or something, or what was that, 27?
And he was talking about how cable TV was it and they really wanted to get a cable channel and that was the dream.
And I'm sitting there going like, what are you talking about?
They don't understand what time it is because they don't live in the real world.
What's going to happen is young people are radicalized, older people less likely.
And as I've said a million times, when the boomers die and they're at the mortality cliff right now at 79 years old, we are going to see millennials inheriting a lot more power.
And then I can hear that Gen Xers complaining that they were left out.
No, it's because Gen Xers are normal and stable.
The millennials are where you start getting lunatics.
And then Gen Z is where everyone's lost their mind.
By the time Gen Z is in their mid-30s and they're controlling corporations and they are the ones in office and they will be, they are going to be, it's going to be full-scale conflict, right?
Let's jump to this next story from the New York Sun and give you the breakdown.
Virginia Democrats propose a raft of new taxes after taking state government trifecta.
The story is this.
It's been two days since the Democrats got in after their major sweeping election and they are burning the state down.
So that means there is the National Popular Vote Compact, where a series of states have an agreement with each other that should the popular vote swing one way and their states have the power to affect the Electoral College, they will vote for whoever won the popular vote, not the state vote, not the Electoral College vote.
Once you get a certain number, they're fairly close.
Once a certain number of states sign on, which I think might be like 35 or 36 or something like that, there will no longer be an electoral college.
And this effectively means what you are seeing in Maryland, in Virginia, where they are wiping out Republican voices, this country will become pure Democrat and Republicans will become second-class citizens with no voice whatsoever in politics.
Because with the National Popular Vote Compact, well, there's a lot of arguments about how it would play out.
One is that you've got, what is it, you know, 20 million, how many, we're 10 million Republicans.
That's four years of Glenn Young gone with the sign of a pen.
Unironically, because the Virginia Republicans, they have this genius idea where they're like, hey, maybe we can step into the left's framework and then beat them at their own game.
It's like, let's run a base black woman and she's going to carry a gun around and she's going to talk about how the Democrats are the real racists.
I mean, Glenn Young, you know, he's not this like super authentically right-wing governor like a lot of people want.
He's not quite the Santa's flavor.
Very effective, especially for a state like Virginia that is a light blue state.
Great, great legacy, et cetera.
Gone like that, just because, again, the Republicans want to have a one over on Democrats because they're just so desperate to get approval from like the gay zeitgeist.
Here's what's going to happen: Virginia's new bills are going to result in gun owners, many of them fleeing, wealthy individuals fleeing.
It's going to cause massive problems for the state budget.
California is expected to lose a trillion dollars, a trillion dollars because of their wealth tax proposal.
Billionaires are like, I will leave.
I will look at somewhere else.
It's going to happen to Virginia as well.
The conditions are going to cause more anger.
And what do we see in places like Venezuela?
When the Venezuelan retard government destroyed their economy with retard communist policies, instead of saying, guys, I think we're retarded, they said, it's not our fault.
It's the imperialists who are destroying our country.
Well, that's not true.
But what's going to happen in Virginia and in California is they're going to say, we did everything right.
The reason why we have feces everywhere and no money, it's Trump's fault.
When the extremely rich leave, they're going to pass those taxes on to the people that they say are the millionaires.
But at least in California, the property tax that they're talking about, it's any property you own.
I've got a friend that's like maybe, maybe he has a million bucks, but probably not.
He's definitely not a multi-millionaire, but his house is in Lakewood and it's a nice area and it's worth a million dollars.
Now, it's two stories, maybe, I think there's probably four or five rooms or whatever.
It's a normal, what you would consider a normal house.
If you looked at that, you take that house and you put it in South Carolina, it's probably $400,000, right?
Like it's a nice house, but it's not some kind of extravagancy.
He's going to be treated like a millionaire.
They're going to tax him as if he's a millionaire.
When the billionaires leave, they're going to go after the middle class.
This is what happens in socialist countries all the time.
That's why you end up with no middle class and a huge poor population and only the extremely rich and wealthy people that are connected that can get around it.
They're going to destroy California if that passes.
And you're going to see that move happening in other states as well.
It's kind of an interesting exception because most of the people there aren't there for like a favorable business environment.
They're there for proximity to Washington, D.C. without having to get hammered on D.C. taxes.
Now, again, this could be enough to maybe persuade them to move somewhere else, but they don't really have much of an option.
One thing that's interesting is the National GOP does have a trick up their sleeve if they, again, were so brave to do it, is they could just revoke the secession of Arlington, which they, again, they ceded Arlington and Alexandria to the state of Virginia.
He probably is doing a lot of important things behind the scenes that maybe we do not know or understand, or he's delegated these things to other people in his cabinet, right?
But it just seems like when you look at it on the face of things, it seems like he's been too busy, like renaming things, like, you know, Gulf of America, Department of War.
Like, the optics of it on the face is that he's not doing anything.
Does he not care about the way that it looks?
I mean, to kind of do a little side note, even did you guys see the event that they threw at Mar-a-Lager over the weekend with the furries?
They literally, it was like some humane society event that they were running where basically they were liberal slop.
Yeah, yeah, but they literally had people wearing essentially furry mosques.
And are we forgetting about the fact that literally three months ago, Tim Dylan said this on his podcast, Charlie Kirk was assassinated by the boyfriend of a furry.
I think because the Humane Society, and this is splitting hairs, and I think that I agree with you on the optics of it, but I think that if you're going to steal me on what's going on, this wasn't about furries because furries is a whole LGBT connected, generally LGBT connected, weird fetish thing.
Whereas this was set up by the Humane Society or whatever, and it was about animals, not about furries.
Women are more likely to support political assassinations.
Now, you know what I don't like about this headline, Daily Wire, is that the actual study is majority of Americans find killing of Trump or Mamdani justified.
Both the right and the left, according to this poll, in the majorities, believe it's time for political assassinations.
Of course, more so on the left.
But what surprised me is that even conservatives agreed in the assassination of Mamdani.
Females at 54.7%.
Now, that may be shocking to a lot of people.
I think it's absolutely psychotic for anyone to support assassinations of either of these people.
I think Mamdani is a very, very bad guy.
But I think you handle this with FEMA management campaigns.
The federal government can come in, and if it's really bad, remove him from power.
But you know why people are saying things like this?
With Trump, they're calling him in the Gestapo.
He's Hitler.
He's a Nazi.
He's rounding up children.
Mamdani says he wants to abolish ICE and he's advocating for non-American citizens.
The degree of extremism in this country at the political level, I view it largely on the liberal side.
Let's be honest.
This is a country that has always had laws.
If you're a politician and you vowed to defend non-citizens from the law, you're a rogue politician.
The answer to that, the federal government should go and remove you from power and Mamdani should be removed.
I absolutely think so.
Trump, however, has been buddy-buddy.
However, for your run-of-the-mill, regular old conservative, looks like about half of them are saying Trump won't do it and something needs to be done.
The question was not that do you want to assassinate, but are there, it was something like, are there circumstances in which the assassination of Mamdani would be justified?
Yeah, I mean, look, to discuss political assassinations, it just shows how deteriorated our political discourse has gotten.
This is not okay.
And it's probably largely because of like super online people.
You know, this kind of rhetoric is something that you will see just on TikTok all the time.
I mean, you can go and look at how many people, the way people reacted to Charlie Kirk or to Donald Trump getting the attack on Donald Trump and stuff, there are a lot of people that think that this is just a game.
Like Tim's made the point, good, the lady that was shot in Minneapolis.
Her wife was hollering, why did you have real bullets?
As if law enforcement would ever not have real bullets.
Like there is a distinction between riot control and regular law enforcement.
However, they excised participants, around 1,170, for lack of quality responses.
They were filtered out, leading to a final sample of 1,055 balanced on gender, race, ethnicity, age, and education.
On a U.S. census, on U.S. Census benchmarks, additionally, the sample was weighted on age, four categories, race, five categories, gender, three categories, and education, four categories.
Yeah, they're disconnected from the real outcomes and people are being radicalized online, specifically women.
Like they have specifically, so I'm not surprised by the title of this headline.
They've been very good at radicalizing women in politics.
And when you look at social media platforms, the issue is, you know, on TikTok, you're talking about the content over there.
Like a lot of right-wing content gets censored on TikTok.
So it's leftist voices that are projected.
And this is the dominant influence that women are receiving because they don't even have the option of seeing this right-wing content in a lot of instances.
I mean, it was just like a few years ago, a year ago, literally, you couldn't even put Nick Fuentes in the title of a YouTube video.
You had to like put asterisks on it to prevent the video from being taken down.
So the amount of right-wing content that is censored versus left-wing content has resulted in radicalization of women.
Well, I mean, I'm not a repeal the 19th guy because it doesn't go nearly far enough.
I think that the people that I think that there should be a specific class of people that are allowed to vote, maybe property owners or business owners.
But I don't think I think there are plenty of women that should, plenty of women that should be allowed to vote.
But I don't think that it should be just blanket all women.
But I do think that it should be, there should be a certain group of people that pass tests and who have the responsibility and understand the responsibility of the vote.
So, I mean, I don't think whether you're an illegal alien, I think if you're a first-generation person, you've emigrated to the United States, you shouldn't be allowed to vote.
Well, honestly, with some of the political opinions that I've espoused, I wouldn't be surprised if I went back, they would not let me in or they'd be waiting there to like arrest me or something, perhaps.
Australia has really turned into a socialist hellhole.
And it's really sad to see America kind of leaning in that direction.
Look, America's the last bastion of actual liberty.
And it's come down to, you know, maybe half the country or maybe two-thirds of the country actually respects the things that were laid out in the constitution and actually cares about the things that the founders actually cared about.
Yeah, but like that's, I mean, like that's the whole point of like me and Connors Across the Pond show is to illustrate like, look, the Anglosphere, even though Australia, New Zealand, the UK are further down the road than we are, again, they are all part of the same sort of philosophical like heritage track.
And so, again, Australia and the UK are just, they're cousins.
So they're indicators of what could realistically play out in the U.S.
And Australia, you're seeing, you're seeing the mass migration completely overhauling society.
You're seeing, again, a lot of the heritage Australians just tacking off to the left.
And it's like, okay, they're just really 20 years ahead, maybe 10 years ahead of what realistically could occur in the U.S.
They're trying to flood it with as many immigrants as possible to cause chaos because they want their problem reaction solution playbook.
So they're importing the third world, but they're simultaneously implementing all of these super dystopian policies, like their digital ID that they're now mandating, which is basically going to be the thing that underpins a social credit score.
Like, I would not be surprised if Australia becomes the first country in the West to basically reflect communist China in everything other than name.
I'm Mark Rule, Police Chief of City of Brooklyn Park.
Behind me is a bunch of amazing police chiefs that are here in support of a very short but very important message that we want to share with you.
What you won't hear from any of us today is rhetoric of abolish ICE or that there shouldn't be immigration enforcement.
The truth is, immigration enforcement is necessary for our national security and for local security.
But how it's done is extremely important.
In fact, we have a long history of working exceptionally well with our federal partners, including ICE agents.
And we have seen the best of them perform their job extremely well in the past.
With that said, recently, as the last two weeks, we as law enforcement community have been receiving endless complaints about civil rights violations in our streets from U.S. citizens.
What we're hearing is they're being stopped in traffic stops or on the street with no cause and being forced to demand paperwork to determine if they are here legally.
As this went on over the past two weeks, we started hearing from our police officers the same complaints as they fell victim to this while off duty.
Every one of these individuals is a person of color who has had this happen to them.
In Brooklyn Park, one particular officer that shared her story with me was stopped as she passed ICE going down the roadway.
When they boxed her in, they demanded her paperwork, of which she's a U.S. citizen and clearly would not have any paperwork.
When she became concerned about the rhetoric and the way she was being treated, she pulled out her phone.
In an attempt to record the incident, the phone was knocked out of her hands, prevented her from recording it.
The officer had their guns drawn during this interaction.
And after the officer became so concerned, they were forced to identify themselves as a Brooklyn Park police officer in hopes of slowing the incident and de-escalating the incident down.
The agents then immediately left after hearing this, making no other comments, no other apologies, just got in their vehicles and left.
I wish I could tell you that this was an isolated incident.
In fact, many of the chiefs standing behind me have similar incidents with their off-duty officers.
This isn't just important because it happened to off-duty police officers, but what it did do is we know that our officers know what the Constitution is, they know what right and wrong is, and they know when people are being targeted.
I'm going to tell you right now, this is what war looks like.
The Conservatives are going to say, ICE is justified because we've had 20 million illegal immigrants and we are trying to get the worst of the worst out of the country.
It's not a big deal to get stopped and ask for your ID.
In fact, I said this about Chicago.
I saw the DHS guys walking around Chicago when they came out earlier in the year, and I said, I'm for it.
My worst case, what they're going to sign me and say, sir, do you have an ID?
There are certainly a lot of people that I never understood this.
I certainly get you don't want your civil rights violated, but a cop stopping you within reason saying, excuse me, we're concerned about certain criminal activity in the area.
Do you have an ID on you?
It's sure.
I understand, however, in certain circumstances, I'd also be like, am I being detained?
Am I free to go?
Because, you know, I just don't just trust the government, right?
The problem is largely conservatives view this effort as going into a jurisdiction filled with fraud, crime.
I mean, the fraud is off the charts.
The crime is off the charts.
And so they want this to happen.
I certainly think, as I said last year, that ICE needs to be 200% above board.
They should be wearing khakis and polo shirts as they conduct these operations because it's going to be weaponized against them.
Trump will lose the election in the midterms if it looks scary to regular people.
That being said, conservatives will largely defend it and say, look, if you're a cop and they come up to you and ask for ID, why are you fighting with them?
Why would another cop she could say, certainly I'm an officer with the, you know, what was the name of the city?
You know what happens when someone's coming to ask you questions and you're a cop.
What are you worried about?
Liberals are going to say, this proves they're Gestapo.
The police are even complaining.
But the one thing that matters, your opinion on it, immaterial.
The police have come out and issued a statement against federal law enforcement, expressing the conflict and the division.
This, in my view, I don't see a path towards de-escalation.
Unless Trump does some kind of insurrection act, goes in and then assumes domestic law enforcement operations, you are going to see more local law enforcement coming out and escalating the division between federal and local law enforcement.
If the whole purpose of this ICE operation is to reduce harm by removing bad people, and the way you do that is by creating even worse people, people who will fight you even harder than what those immigrants might have done.
So I mean, I reject the idea that this is worse than the crimes that are being committed by the criminals.
So right off the bat.
But I do think that if ICE is being this heavy-handed, not that I have, you know, have any kind of serious moral problem with people showing the police their ID or law enforcement their ID, but the fact that the police chief is getting on TV and talking about it, to Tim's point, it is really bad for optics.
And I do think that this is something that the administration and the DOJ really need to be careful about.
Just like the optics of this is bad.
You don't want to have this as something that's in the front of people's minds.
It's bad enough that to deport people and wrap them up makes, you know, makes ICE and DOJ look like they're using too much force, particularly because the left's going to do whatever they can to make it look like they're using too much force.
They're going to go out there and they're going to try and inhibit their activities and stuff.
The U.S. government has a history. of feigning the victim, attacking itself, and then flying a false flag and blaming their enemies.
Not happening.
Not happening.
Literally, ICE is going out.
They're heavy-handed.
The liberals are complaining about it, and the DHS is carrying on.
So they can either play it straight, pull back, and say, we got to make sure every interaction is so far beyond board, above board, that this doesn't happen.
Come out and give a reasonable approach and say, these things happen in law enforcement operations.
And for that, we apologize.
We will do better.
This is about enforcing the law.
With thousands of officers trying to find thousands of rapists and murderers, sometimes these things will happen.
Trust us, we're on your side.
That's the appropriate response.
If they were evil, they'd just come out and make up stories and lie and do whatever they wanted.
And this just radicalizes everyday people more who aren't really tapped into what's going on.
People who perceive this as scary.
And that's why you're getting things like, did you guys see the woman who was trying to intercept ICE offices when they were actually trying to carry out like a pedophile like sting operation?
They are deluded because the media tells them it's the Gestapo Nazis here.
I will say this.
When this cop says, here's another problem.
We're getting a bunch of calls about our rights being violated.
I don't believe it's real for a second.
I don't believe it's real for a second.
If a regular, if you're walking down the street and a cop stops you and says, excuse me, sir, I hate to trouble you, but we're on the lookout for a certain individual.
Would you mind showing us your ID just so we can make sure, you know, it's not you?
Most people are going to be like, oh, okay, I guess.
And they're going to show the idea and they're going to be like, sorry to bother you.
And they're going to leave.
Now, imagine if before that happens, this guy's hearing from his friends being like, dude, these guys will stop you and ask for your ID and then stab you and they'll stab you.
My concern is The people who are largely uninitiated, which there are very few still, but also there is the initiated center lane, the like the Rogan crowd, we can call it, right?
Joe Rogan's a regular guy.
He does comedy, but he does some kind of politics.
And there are people who watch his show and they voted for Trump, but they're not super political.
These aren't, I don't consider them uninitiated because they are listening to the news.
Uninitiated people are few and far between these days, but they're people who are like, I don't know anything about news.
People are getting freaked out by guys in masks with guns going door to door and arresting people and the narrative about Nazis and Gestapo and Trump losing.
So the questions are once again posed in the mind of the normie.
Who's crazy?
And they go, well, these ICE guys going around like that lady got shot.
But for regular people, they're like, man, I'm just concerned about the price economics.
But very few people I interact with don't have, like, when I go out on the weekends, most people that I encounter are familiar with what's going on to a certain degree.
Yeah, I encountered one guy recently who was like, I don't watch the news.
Just one guy.
Now, some people are wrong.
You know, I meet liberals, I meet conservatives, but they're initiated in this.
Obviously, I'm not apprised to what's going on in China or Japan or France for the most part.
My bubble is America.
But in terms of politics, the people that I engage with typically every week are a spattering across the board a variety of people I talk to all day, all the time.
It's one of the reasons I love playing poker.
People come in and out, and I'm hanging out with Robbie, and we're asking people what they do for a living, and we're asking them questions.
I often don't talk, I don't talk about myself all that often when I'm at these tables.
If someone doesn't know who I am, I'll just be like, what do you do for a living?
I'm like, you're at a poker table.
You got a thousand bucks on the table.
You must have a good job.
A lot of engineers, seriously, a lot of engineers.
It would be interesting to do like a man on the street thing and go out and just talk to as many people as possible and find out how politically knowledgeable they are.
That's actually something that I may do to kind of test it.
If you look like, if you look last night on the timeline, like everyone was talking about Tim Cast and Nick Funtes, like that was dominating the political side, guys.
Guarantee you, Google Trends last night, look at Miami versus Indiana, probably like 20 times as large as that.
That was the biggest political story of that night.
Yeah, people won't want to hear it, but it's like a political, at least it's like as far as people keep up with politics, is very stratified by class.
Again, people don't want to hear that because it cuts against like what a lot of the rhetoric is, especially on the populist right, but it's true.
Like when I think about my upbringing, suburban Memphis, very traditional, sort of normal upbringing.
I have like maybe three or four friends will text me, like in group chats with 30, 40 people, like three or four of them that are like interested in politics.
They're texting me stuff.
They're like, this is funny, da-da-da-da.
Compared to like when I lived in Manhattan, every single person that I know from my time in Manhattan, liberal or conservative, is like constantly texting me different things or arguing, trying to argue with me, and I get blocked pretty quickly.
But like, it's true.
I think to a degree, like the yuppie class, so to speak, or whoever's sort of supplanted them is like the most politically involved.
I called this actually way back in, I think, June on HerTake podcast when a lot of the big banks were flooding the market with fake sell orders, like a ridiculous amount of fake sell orders to try to manipulate the price because a lot of banksters, a lot of banksters are over-leveraged in these short positions.
And we've reached a point now where people are demanding the actual physical asset.
That's one of the reasons trying to stop exporting it.
And now, real world price of silver and the paper market have officially decoupled.
And it's crazy.
The market is doing things that we've never seen before in our lifetime.
Sort of, but this is with the price of silver going up, there's a variety of factors.
One could be AI demand.
It's useful for computers, to put it simply.
It's a conductor.
It's one of the best.
I think it actually is the best.
So they want to buy it up for that reason.
However, it's also historically just been a standard hedge.
People buy it to store value.
Well, particularly with inflation, the printing of money.
Otherwise, you didn't need to because silver was money.
So the issue now is the price skyrocketing, I believe, is at least somewhat indicative of people in the know are trying to get their hands on precious metals because the US dollar is about to go belly up.
I mean, look, if a World War III actually broke out, and I don't mean some stupid, is this World War II?
No, I mean like literally Russia launches a missile strike on Poland to stop NATO troops coming in or Trump makes a move on Greenland, then Russia reacts instantly and something happens or Venezuela triggers a move on Taiwan.
The moment that happens and you get an American politician saying, we now have war on every front in the world.
The dates of the spikes correlate with major geopolitical events and policy issues.
That could be, yeah.
There's another play here, and that's, of course, AI.
And I think one of the issues that these data centers are outright saying, guys, we could increase our productivity, you know, 3X if we were using silver instead of copper.
And so they're like, buy it.
The price is meaningless to the, like, listen.
Let me tell you how horrifying things are.
Viral videos across TikTok and Instagram where a guy is talking, so it's a vertical video, and there's a small window of a guy, and he's talking.
And then there's some busty young woman talking in the exact same video.
It's like, it's AI replacement.
And he'll be saying, guys, do you want to learn how to make six figures with an AI brain slop?
And the girl is moving and saying it like she's the guy.
And then the voice slowly turns into the female voice, which is like, I can teach you how to make things just like this.
And then they sell courses on this stuff.
Then all these AI slot vision popping up.
We talked about it last year, two years ago, how there's Instagram thoughts that are just AI generated and they were weird looking, but now they're getting better and better.
And there's also the AI generated news videos, which are making $150K per month.
There's a video I saw where it was this guy talking about how he makes, he has it, he makes animal videos on Sora.
And it's just like, make a video of a dog saving a baby from a snake.
And then he helps it to YouTube and boom, 500,000 views.
And then he's like, AI brain slop.
He's like, you do 50 of them a day and you're making six figures.
This is what's dominating everything.
That's the AI we have now.
Internally with ChatGPT and Gemini, these have AIs where they're doing much more advanced money-making schemes.
There was a move being done in crypto called, I think it was crypto arbitrage, it was called, where basically computers could track a sell or buy order faster than a human could.
And as soon as the human put the order in, the computer would execute a sale to get a fee and then intercept the transaction.
So it would take percentages of the sales and generate revenue for nothing.
There are stories of people who are doing Ethereum arbitrage, making millions of dollars per month.
And no one noticed because all they were doing was basically saying if someone puts in an order, we're to do a quick buy and sell.
Because the way it works is you'll say, like, I'm willing to bid up to three grand for an Ethereum.
And then the price could fluctuate a little bit.
The AI, and this is rudimentary machine, like this is well before ChatGPT, would see the order come in and then execute a trade really quickly to get a thin market.
Somebody says, I'd like to buy Ethereum and I'm willing to pay $3,000 for it.
The AI sees the order go in and quickly acquires the Ethereum and sells it to the person.
It intercepts the order and executes it faster so that it gets, I'm, interesting.
You got to look at how it works because I'm not exactly sure.
The general idea was in stocks as well.
If a computer can execute trades faster than you and it can see you doing it in a millisecond, then when you say, I'm willing to buy at 3,000 and the price is fluctuating, it attacks the fluctuation to do a quick trade so that it can monetize your transaction.
Something that affected, and I'm probably butchering the explanation, but the gist of it was basically intercepting crypto exchange transactions to generate tiny profits on their end.
But it's a machine doing tens of thousands per hour.
So the person's making millions of dollars a year.
They're saying they go to the AI and they say, go on the market and generate $20 billion.
And it goes done.
When they've released this data, when they put out the experiment where they said they put ChatGPT online, it immediately started trying to make money, manipulating stocks and things like this.
Not manipulating, but buying and trading stocks.
And it can see the trades faster than you, so it knows exactly what's going to happen.
It can see the orders come in so quick, it knows when to get in and when to get out.
So my point is they're generating billions of dollars they don't care about and they're probably saying just buy it this way.

And I want to stress that U.S.-based customer support.
I called, my buddy Robbie was calling a restaurant for reservation, and the guy who answered was Indian.
And he just goes, Hey, bro, I got to be honest.
Like, I know you're in India.
Can you connect me to the restaurant?
And the guy goes, but why?
I can do it for you.

Let's grab your rants and chats, my friends.
Let's see what's up.
B. Mobius says, Newsom said that he should have brought knee pads to Davos.
Yeah, when we had Straderade on, the whole point of her debating the whole strategy she had was, I want you to say something where I can go ahead and say you're a bad person and I'm a good person.
And that's the same exact thing that people would do.
And I'm like, you think you're going on this like far-right conservative, everything's MAGA show, Trump does no wrong.
And then we're like, no, Trump does a lot of things wrong.
And then they're like, oh, but I'm just here to pretend like you're my enemy.
And then they get into this weird problem where they have to disagree with whatever you say in order to, because it's tribal, but you're saying things they also have to agree with.
I think there were a few liberals that we invited on the show that agreed to and then at the last minute said no.
And I think the reason was they would be forced to reconcile with their agreement on many conservative issues.
And that's one of the reasons they avoid these shows because they're issues of fact and truth that are fairly obvious that they're going to end up agreeing on.
But more importantly, there's going to be some conservative Trump supporter who's going to say something like, oh, I don't think we should give money to Israel.
And they're going to agree.
And then they're going to have to explain to the liberals why they agreed with someone who was far right.
I think conservatives have been good at that, especially during this administration, is being critical of the bad decisions of our party versus, you know, liberals, like you said, they're very tribalistic and they equate being wrong with death, basically.
And so they refuse to concede in any way, even when it's completely logical.
I mean, you do get like the government bootlickers on the right who anytime you say something about Trump, they get really mad at you.
Like the people convicted of this, well, I oppose a death penalty for a variety of reasons, but I certainly understand the sentiment around people who abuse kids.
I think I got a better option for minimum absolute sentencing.
Any offense against children, sexual abuse, is life in prison.
And if you guys want to argue for death penalty, have that argument.
James Smith Politics says civil war is most likely to happen not directly from the deportations, but from the loss of electoral votes, House seats in blue states.
Dems are already expected to lose 10 to 13 seats in the 2030 census.
It won't matter if we lose in the midterms and then they erase everything Trump is doing and open the border again.
Just because I'm free says if Republicans do nothing, then it was nice hearing your opinions, Tim, because the Democrats will put you in prison for spreading foreign propaganda.
At least you will won't.
At least you will won't.
I think you meant to say, at least you won't be alone in there.
It feels like the same impotence of the government in 2017 with no real goal of like, how are you going to fix the world, guys, now that you have control of the most powerful government on Earth?
Well, I mean, that is, I mean, that is the goal because with mass immigration continuing, that's how you develop the breathing room to then apply any other policy.
Like, everything is downstream from immigration in the West.
The point is, in our lifetimes, we've never experienced this kind of solar activity, which is indicative of a cycle, which does happen every several hundred thousand years.
We recognize that.
It's just that in our lifetimes, it's happening around Palmeem.
Like, you know, when you're in school and you first learned about the inevitable heat death of the universe in like 200 billion years, and that like actually stressed you out.
I asked him, if everyone in this country magically transformed into Indians and they held all their same views and they were Christians and they loved the founding fathers and the First Amendment, is that a bad country?
And I think Nick was trying to avoid getting a bit aggressive on the issue of race and genetics.
So he left it as he thinks a white country is better.
My interpretation of what he was saying is that he believes that there is something intrinsic to the genetics of white people that results in certain behaviors and cultural norms that doesn't exist in other racial groups.
I think, and maybe you just articulate it, but when you look at certain cultures, there's going to be some obvious things that guarantee this to be true.
Meaning, if you replaced every American with Thai people, they're on average, you know, three, four inches shorter, then they're going to construct homes in different ways.
There will be different styles of architecture based on their bodies.
If you did Scandinavians, they're all very tall.
You're going to get a completely different country.
That's the obvious thing.
The things that aren't so obvious is how does it manifest in terms of behaviors and social cohesion.
But I do think it's fair to say that if you look at Japan, there is, I'll put it simply.
I think nature and nurture are 50-50.
I think people are largely driven by their development in the world that is around them.
That's why you'll meet someone who's Asian but was born in America and they have a North American accent.
They don't have a Chinese accent because nature is more important.
That being said, I think genetics plays a role in other ways that is less likely to express itself culturally, but can manifest in less perceivable ways, I suppose.
When it comes to people that argue about don't race mix, I don't agree with that because I think a lot about the value of certain racial genetic mixes that might happen in the future that we have yet to see.
And I do know that there's like a strengthening of the genome when you introduce multitudes of genetics.
Is it, and maybe you don't know the answer to this, but is it more likely that people of cross-genetics, like different genetics, will have a retarded child?
So if the closer you are, the high, like incest, you have a high rate of, I forgot exactly what the reason was.
I read a long time ago about, I think the rudimentary way to explain it is there are in your genetics things that are way too similar, which cause a competition?
No, It's the expression of genes duplicate or something like that.
That's what causes the embryo.
Like your nose gets too big, your jaw falls off, because the gene that will control for nose size gets doubled up and then and then you're like shit.
Yeah, that's why in the United States, our fertility rate went negative in the 80s, but the population hasn't started declining until now, at least among Native Americans.
So, you know, these things are delayed onset, so to speak.
And go on the Culture War channel and Connor Tomlinson's channel to see last weekend's episodes of Across the Pond.
We went until like Zoomer Nihilism broke down why that is occurring and some of the sure economic factors, but also some of the social factors that are driving that we brought in.
The great Nathan Halberstad, he brought in all the data and flushed it out for us.
And we were looking at computers and I saw the new yoga dual monitor touchscreen.
And I was like, that's the perfect computer for recording because you have your production monitor, your display for content, and then the webcam right on top.
There was one that actually came out in circulation recently where Trump like.
I don't know if this is made up.
You can't tell what's AI and not anymore.
And I have definitely not seen every single Simpsons episode, but apparently there was one in which Donald Trump dies, and the date of his death is apparently meant to happen.
But this thing, like, they were like, oh, monkeys are learning how to use tools because there's like some tribe of monkeys that was using rocks and stuff.
I was listening to a podcast with Musk, and he's of the opinion that we've already hit the singularity, that we're in it now, and that in the next two years, it's going to be the changes that we've seen in the past two years are going to seem like nothing compared to the changes that we're going to see.
Well, I mean, I'm a little white-pilled on it personally, but I mean, you look at the AI video, right?
Two years ago was the Will Smith eating spaghetti, you know, AI video where, you know, spaghetti's just appearing and it's like coming half out of his mouth.
And, you know, now if you ask for, ask Grok to make an AI video of Will Smith eating spaghetti, it's almost indistinguishable.
When you guys were talking on the main show earlier about the left versus the right, the off-ramp ice, the conflict coming to a head, I'm like, all I can see is the future is we plug into these AI machines that govern everything, that spy on our deepest thoughts and prevent crime.
And like, other than that, like full-scale nuclear conflict, I don't understand.
So the goal right now is to be able to read thoughts.
But once they actually figure out how to create thoughts in your brain through electrical impulses, which I mean, I think that that's, I don't think that it's impossible, but it's incredibly complex, right?
Because the way that you perceive things, it's not just like a neuron fires and you think something.
It's like the same neurons all firing in different patterns and stuff is basically easy.
Oh, I meant you're, I think that's going to happen a lot sooner than, but the crude Will Smith eating spaghetti version of it might be making you feel love.
When you were making the stupid Will Smith going crazy and everyone's like, wow, Google had movie cinema quality Will Smith eating spaghetti.
When they release Neuralink to the public, the AI capabilities will be able to brute force your mind already.
We're already well beyond AI's capability to brute force a computer system.
Your brain, it's going to be like, everyone's got a unique neural pathway, like their brain is somewhat unique.
All they need to do is scan maybe a few thousand brains from each different ethnic background, load it into the AI, and they'll be like, done.
Right now, they're working on bespoke medications.
You give it a blood sample, and the computer will tell you exactly what medication you need to cure whatever ails you.
And it can predict if you'll get cancer in 10 years.
We're already there.
They've just not released it to the public yet.
We have the technology.
By the time it comes out, there's no, they can only, like, if they do release emotional modifier technology, it will be intentionally because they want to freak people out.
