Today is September 21st, 2021, and our first story.
Vladimir Putin mobilizes 300,000 troops for war in Ukraine and threatens the use of nuclear weapons.
The U.S.
says if they do nuke Ukraine, America itself will strike Crimea or the Black Sea Fleet.
Things are starting to heat up a lot.
In our next story, Ron DeSantis responds to a lawsuit filed by activists on behalf of migrants, saying they signed a consent form, and he proves it, releasing that form.
In our last story, an unhinged leftist attacks Benny Johnson's Turning Point USA event.
Things are getting crazy domestically and internationally.

Now, let's get into that first story.
Vladimir Putin has announced the partial mobilization of the military and the people
in Russia.
He's calling on 300,000 troops for his war in Ukraine and reservists.
So far, Vladimir Putin is calling this a special operation.
It hasn't yet been a declaration of war, but it seems like it may be going in that direction.
The first thing I need to say with stories like this is we do not know what is actually going on.
And you will likely never know the truth about what happened in Ukraine or, to be honest, any war.
Vladimir Putin will not be releasing the truth because he wants to win.
And the control of information allows him to control morale and allows him to win.
The same is true for the West.
NATO is dumping billions into this conflict, and Americans are on the ground fighting in Ukraine.
I'm not wasting words.
Here's the story from CNN Politics.
Two Americans, captured by Russian-backed forces in Ukraine, freed in prisoner swap.
Americans are on the ground in Ukraine fighting, period.
That'll be clear.
Not in an official declaratory capacity of the United States, but they're there.
They are there.
I guess acting as volunteers, but I think it's silly to try and claim that with NATO funding and American-trained troops on the ground, we are not involved.
We are.
So, World War 3?
Maybe.
Vladimir Putin warns he's not bluffing with nuclear threat and I believe him.
Now, I don't believe him when he tells me what's going on in Ukraine or why he's waging this war.
None of that stuff.
But when he says he'd use nukes, I believe it.
Joe Biden came out and basically said, back off.
The U.S.
has threatened, if you use nukes in Ukraine, we will attack and that Will be, my friends.
I suppose the start of a major world war.
Again, it's always hard to know for sure what will happen because we don't actually know what's happening on the ground.
Right now, the official reports are that Vladimir Putin's forces are being forced back, that Ukrainians have broken through their perimeter and are beginning to take serious ground.
And in response, Vladimir Putin has fired incendiary bombs blanketing a city that they lost.
However, we're also learning from the AP that four—well, let me just pull it up.
Four Ukrainian regions are scheduling votes this week to join Russia.
Of course, Western media is saying these are sham elections.
And over in Russia, they're saying, no, it's legitimate.
The news changes every day.
Several stories that I was reading in the past few days seem to be gone.
It's crazy, isn't it?
I don't know why.
Maybe they were retracted, maybe they were incorrect, or maybe intelligence agencies said, do not report that information.
Take it down now.
There are a lot of stories that I read about a while back that for some reason just can't be found.
Now, I could go back to my own video archives.
They're still there.
But my concern with this is, and why I'm not pulling these stories back up, is because if they were removed, maybe they were removed for a reason, maybe they're incorrect.
But outside of Ukraine, outside of these potential referendums, we also have Taiwan.
I've been hearing from people in the Super Chat over at TimCast IRL that friends of theirs and family members are being deployed to The South Pacific to the Southeast Asia area, to places like Guam.
We saw that the U.S.
Navy is touring around Taiwan and China's essentially backing off.
But now is the perfect opportunity for China to take Taiwan.
And if they do, then I suppose we do have a World War III, I guess.
I can only imagine that Belarus, which is already involved, is going to escalate their involvement.
India is apparently getting involved.
Things could get Things could get ugly.
You guys gotta understand, Vladimir Putin, I think, can and will use nukes if he has to.
And this may escalate into a full-blown declaration of war against Ukraine, not like we don't realize what it already is.

Let's read the first story from CNBC.
They report, Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday announced a partial military mobilization in Russia, putting the country's people and economy on a wartime footing, as Moscow's invasion of Ukraine continues.
In a rare, pre-recorded televised announcement, Putin said the West wants to destroy our country, and claimed the West had tried to turn Ukraine's people into cannon fodder.
In comments translated by Reuters, repeating earlier claims in which he has blamed Western nations for starting a proxy war with Russia.
Putin said mobilization events would begin Wednesday without providing further details, aside from saying he had ordered an increase in funding to boost Russia's weapons production, having committed and lost a large amount of weaponry during the conflict which began in late February.
A partial mobilization is a hazy concept, but it could mean that Russian businesses and citizens have to contribute more to the war effort.
Russia has not yet declared war on Ukraine, despite having invaded in February, and calls its invasion a special military operation.
Putin confirmed that military reservists would be called up into active service, but insisted a wider conscription of Russian men of fighting age was not taking place.
Quote, I reiterate, We are talking about partial mobilization.
That is, only citizens who are currently in the reserve will be subject to conscription.
And above all, those who served in the armed forces have a certain military specialty and a relevant experience.
Conscripts will obligatorily go through additional military training based on the experience of the special military operation before departing to the units, he said according to an AP translation.
In what was immediately greeted as an escalatory address, Putin also accused the West of engaging in nuclear blackmail against Russia and warned again.
The country had lots of weapons to reply to what he said were Western threats, adding that he was not bluffing.
We want to pretend, we want to engage in propaganda and say Russia's gonna lose, Russia's not strong, Russia is strong.
They want you to think, in many stories, that Russia is weak and they're losing.
They're not.
They may have lost territory, they may have had certain areas breached, but Russia has not yet begun to fight.
And that is not praising Russia, that is a warning to all of us and the West.
We have this story.
I believe it may be this one.
Russian military rains down terrifying barrage of incendiary shells on a Ukrainian village days after it was recaptured by Kiev's troops.
You take a look at this.
It's insane to watch.
It's terrifying.
Vladimir Putin and Russia's military, they have means that they have not yet unleashed, and they have nuclear capabilities.
They are fighting with one hand tied behind their back.
You know what you should think of this as?
The Princess Bride.
You've all seen that movie.
It is the scene where you have Inigo Montoya, and he's fighting, and he says, there is something you should know.
Ah, I am not left-handed, and then switches hands.
That's what they're doing right now, in a limited capacity, probably because they don't want to escalate, and they're trying to minimize the use of force.
Not because I'm trying to argue they want to minimize damage to the Ukrainian people.
I don't think so.
But I think because they want to avoid Western escalation as much as possible, and try and win slowly.
It's not working.
Sooner or later, Vladimir Putin will throw his saber to his right hand, and that will be when they decide to unleash true hell on Ukraine.
I do not think Putin will give up on this.
And I believe, and I've talked to many others, we've talked to commentators and other people who have more experience with war, Putin could unleash a smaller yield, maybe, you know, multi-kiloton bomb on Kiev, killing tens of thousands of people and shocking the nation, shattering Ukrainian morale.

Vladimir Putin would not use nukes arbitrarily on DC.
That makes no sense.
What he would do is use nukes in Ukraine.
The U.S.
can then decide to retaliate.
But Putin will say, I am not at war with you.
If you strike us, you are declaring war on us.
If we are at war with them, and we strike them, and then you come to their defense, and, mind you, Ukraine is not a NATO country, then we would be declaring war on Russia.
Maybe then the mutually assured destruction would be our fault.
You see, this is the crazy thing.
I don't think we should be involved in defending Ukraine.
I have friends from there.
I think the country is amazing.
I think what Russia is doing is abhorrent.
I have no problem with providing weapons and aid.
But I do not think Americans should be on the ground.
And I do not think that we should be directly involved and sending billions of dollars to the tune that we are.
At a certain point, you can say, Ukraine You're not a NATO ally.
You're on your own.
Instead, how many billions of dollars to fight a proxy war?
That, I think, is insane.
To clarify, I think there is a limited case in which we can provide aid.
To the degree that we're doing it, I do not think so.
And it's sad because I don't want to see Ukraine get crushed by Russia the way they are.
So it's tough.
It really is.
China's Foreign Ministry called on all parties to engage in dialogue to find a way to address their security concerns, while British Foreign Office Minister Gillian Keegan told Sky News that Putin's comments should not be taken lightly.
Clearly it's something that we should take very seriously because, you know, we are not in control.
I'm not sure he's in control either, really.
This is obviously an escalation.
Financial markets reacted negatively to Putin's comments, with oil prices spiking more than 2% and the Russian ruble slumping around 2.6% against the dollar.
Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu added more detail on the partial mobilization Wednesday morning, saying it would see 300,000 additional personnel called up to serve in the military campaign in Ukraine.
In an interview with Russian state television, Shoigu said the students and those who served as conscripts would not be called up, and that the majority of Russia's reserves would not be drafted.
Putin's comments come as Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which began in late February, approaches the winter period with momentum appearing to be on Ukraine's side, after it launched lightning counter-offensives in the Northeast and South to reclaim lost territory.
Speculation mounted Tuesday that Putin could be about to announce a full or partial mobilization of the Russian economy and society, paving the way for possible conscription of Russian men of fighting age.
We're getting there, baby, and when he does that...
Look, Russia's not as powerful as a lot of people think.
Maybe they want to believe.
They're powerful, though.
And it's the nuclear weapons that present the true problem.
They may not be able to mobilize enough ground forces to take a country, but they can certainly turn it to ash.
And that's terrifying.
Here's what we're seeing in response.
Forbes reports panic in Russia from Putin's mobilization causes flights to sell out.
Now, mind you, this may be propaganda.
I don't know what to believe, and I should warn you the same.
Putin's gonna lie.
The West is gonna lie.
Russian media is gonna lie.
American media is gonna lie.
But here's the reports that we have.
Russian President Vladimir Putin's announcement Wednesday that he's calling in military reserves to reinforce his troops in Ukraine reportedly led to a surge of Russians purchasing one-way plane tickets to leave the country, pushing economy class flight prices to more than $9,000 in some cases.
Russians seem unconvinced when he said it would only be the reservists, with flights
to destinations that still have direct flights from Moscow, like Istanbul and Serbian capital
of Belgrade quickly selling out.
Prices for a one-way economy class ticket to Istanbul skyrocketed to more than $9,100 before selling out, according to the AP, while the cheapest tickets to Dubai soared to more than $5,000.
Flights from Moscow to Istanbul are fully booked through Saturday, according to Turkish Airlines' website.
Searches in Russia for Aviasales, a website commonly used to buy flight tickets in the country, along with Russian passport and emigration, also soared immediately after Putin's speech, according to Google Trends.
Oh yeah, baby.
It's coming.
And do you think Putin stops there?
I think Putin would drag it all down to the abyss.
Why?
I don't think Putin wants to see Russia destroyed.
I don't think he wants it in the abyss.
But I think Putin sees this as an existential threat to Russia.
A criteria by which he said they would use nukes.
If the U.S.
takes Ukraine and negatively impacts their ability to sell gas through Gazprom in Ukraine, They're in serious trouble.
More importantly, if they lose access to Crimea, that's their only warm water port, they are doomed.
They need to use Crimea to send ships through the Black Sea into the Mediterranean, they have access to the Suez Canal, and the US-NATO would cut them off.
So Russia's gonna say, you know what?
So be it.
If we lose this 10, 20, 30 years, we're done.
So what does Russia say?
We won't lose it.
Because Russia turning Ukraine to ash is preferable.
They would still have access to their warm water port.
And that's terrifying.
So here we go, baby.
In this tweet from Ian Bremmer, not the biggest fan, mind you.
And again, not sure I trust this stuff.
Searches for how to break an arm surged in Russia today.
Anything to get out of combat.
I think we'd see something similar, mind you, with Americans as well.
But people don't want to go to war.
I suppose the fear is the Reservists signed up for this stuff, but regular people are scared that given another six, seven months, the Reservists will be the front line, and then conscription will ensue.
And I think Putin will do it, because like I said, he's outright saying, we're not going to let Russia fall.
From the Daily Mail, quote, I am not going to die for Putin.
Terrified Russians begin anti-mobilization protests after one-way tickets fling the country sold out.
I don't believe it.
I believe it only a little bit.
Like, I think it's reasonable that people might say this, but is it en masse?
I think the overwhelming majority of Russians probably support their government.
I believe many people don't.
The flights are probably selling out because there are people who don't support this and they do protest.
But is it the majority of Russians?
I'm not so sure.
Here's an important story for you.
World War III, my friends.
Two Americans captured by Russian-backed forces in Ukraine freed in prisoner swap.
They're saying, these aren't our guys officially, they're just citizens.
They exchanged prisoners for them?
Who did?
America?
CNN reports.
The freed men are Alexander John Robert Druk from Tuscaloosa and Andy Thai Ngoc Huynh.
Probably pronouncing that wrong.
Ngoc?
Probably wrong.
They're both from Alabama.
They were captured while fighting for Ukraine in the north of Kharkiv in June.
We are thrilled to announce that Alex and Andy are free.
They're safely in the custody of the U.S.
Embassy in Saudi Arabia, and after medical checks and debriefing, they will return to the States.
We deeply appreciate everyone's prayers, and especially the close communication and support of our elected officials.
The families did not know the prisoner exchange was in the works.
Earlier on Wednesday, the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced the release of 10 prisoners who are Moroccan, U.S., U.K., Swedish, and Croatian nationals.
They were released as part of an exchange of POWs between Russia and Ukraine.
American veterans.
Who had been released as part of a prisoner swap.
Who negotiated it.
Brokered by Saudi Arabia.
And members of their families.
So, these people are fighting in Ukraine.
And the U.S.
Embassy in Saudi Arabia sits back while Saudi Arabia negotiates their exchange.
You think Vladimir Putin falls for this stuff?
Maybe they're not active duty troops, but these are American veterans who are trained by the American military, training and aiding Ukrainians.
Russia has already said this is war with NATO.
From the AP, four Ukrainian regions schedule votes this week to join Russia.
Russian-controlled regions of eastern and southern Ukraine announced plans Tuesday to start voting this week to become integral parts of Russia.
The Kremlin-backed efforts to swallow up four regions could set the stage for Moscow to escalate the war following Ukrainian successes on the battlefield.
The scheduling of referendums starting Friday in the Luhansk, Kursan, Zaporizhia, and Donetsk regions came after a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin said the votes are needed as Moscow is losing ground in the invasion.
So here's what they do.
They'll have these referendums, that I believe are probably going to be bunk.
They'll then say, we are not declaring war, we are just reinforcing our regions that we've annexed.
It's all silly propaganda, isn't it?
It's just silly.
From Reuters, Russia moves to formally annex swathes of Ukraine.
Here we go, baby.
From the Daily Mail, the story I already showed you.
The willingness of Russia to blanket cities with incendiary bombs.
Now, for all we know, it's not really Russia.
How do we know?
False flags are real things, my friends.
But I think it's probably Russia.
And I think Russia will use extreme tactics.
The fact they can blanket incendiary bombs in this way.
They can burn cities to the ground.
You don't need nukes.
It can be more controlled.
From the Daily Mail, America will retaliate with a devastating strike against Russia's
Black Sea fleet or bases in Crimea if Putin follows through on the threat to use nuclear
weapons in Ukraine, U.S. Army former European commander warns. In a chilling address to Russia,
Putin threatened the West with nuclear weapons, saying, I'm not bluffing.
Retired US Army.
Army General Ben Hodges says it's unlikely Moscow will order a nuclear strike upon Ukraine.
But he warns if he does, America could blast Russian military facilities in Crimea with a deadly missile strike.
And the firing line could include the Sevastopol Naval Base and Putin's prized Black Sea fleet of warships.
I think they would.
Targeting Crimea is smart.
Threatening that, that's what Russia fears.
This is why they want Ukraine.
Access to the Black Sea.
Crimea.
The U.S.
knows that's what they need.
So they say, you go after Ukraine, we'll wipe out the one thing in Ukraine you need.
But, is a threat of attacking Russia not a declaration of war?
Here we go, baby.
I hope you're ready.
Biden says this is a war by one man.
Putin's bid to extinguish Ukraine should make your blood run cold and slams reckless nuclear threats and speech accusing Russian leader of shamelessly violating UN Charter.
The White House slammed Putin's nuclear threat as irresponsible rhetoric.
We always have to take this kind of rhetoric seriously, John Kirby told ABC's GMA.
It's irresponsible rhetoric for a nuclear power to talk that way.
Putin's threat to use nuclear weapons came as war is going badly for Russia.
Also comes ahead of Biden's address to the UN General Assembly.
War in Ukraine is top topic for world leaders gathered in New York City.
Hey guys, Josh Hammer here, the host of America on Trial with Josh Hammer, a podcast for the First Podcast Network.
Look, there are a lot of shows out there that are explaining the political news cycle, what's happening on the Hill, the this, the that.
There are no other shows that are cutting straight to the point when it comes to the unprecedented lawfare debilitating At Black Hat, I was shown how industrial control systems could be hacked.

At Black Hat, I was shown how industrial control systems could be hacked.
And they explained how water pumps and refineries could be blown up from a distance.
They were explaining how some of these facilities use code from the 70s.
They've never been updated.
Serious.
Like, seriously, just ridiculous.
And one guy was like, I think he said, like, it's a single line of code, and it, watch, and then he blows up a pipe.
What they did was, they had a pump system, and it forced water in the, in both, in the same direction, overloading one pipe.
They put an emergency valve on it, blasting water out of it.
They said if they did that to, like, a chemical pump, it would explode and just destroy the whole thing.
Are we facing that now?
I wonder.
I really do.
He says, when you actually knock someone's generators offline or if you knock someone's centrifuges like Israel did with Iran, with US help, does that mean you're at war?
If someone dies because you turned off the power somewhere and they were on life support, are you at war?
Yes.
You are.
I think that is part of the problem.
And what my piece was trying to get at, in some ways, is a huge gray area.
We don't actually know.
And when I think about a world war, it's not just prices here.
In some ways, the U.S.
is better prepared to deal with things like that simply because we're richer than other places.
That doesn't mean everybody's rich.
Don't take me to be saying that, but it's not the same thing as some poor African countries where grain prices are spiking and people are already starting to go hungry.
I mean, that's involving Africa.
That's involving Asia.
United States.
It really is all around the world.
That's what I'm thinking anyway.
Yeah, I don't think he's wrong.
I do not think this guy is wrong when he says that.
I agree a lot.
The Pope certainly thinks so.
We're already living through a third world war.
And if you don't think so, good luck.
Have you purchased emergency food?
I've been shouting out safeandreadymeals.com quite a bit for promo spots, this not being one of them.
But I bring this up because I am mocked for it by urban liberal types.
And I just, I am desperately concerned about these urban liberal types because you might not think civil war is coming.
Sure, fine, whatever.
But what about World War III?
I mean, food prices, inflation, interest rates, it's skyrocketing.
Don't take my word for it.
You do you.
But when you, when, you know, the gag I make, is that I'm gonna be sitting in my house, and I'm gonna see some dude with a handlebar mustache, in a flannel shirt, with, with the, with jeans and the cuffs folded up, raiding my chicken coop, and I'm gonna come out and be like, drop my chicken.
And he's gonna be like, I'm so hungry, please!
And I'm gonna be like, no.
Start walking.
And he can go cry and starve.
These people want to laugh at the idea that serious conflict can occur?
I don't care about them, or what they do.
They can laugh at whatever they want.
They can find whatever they want funny.
But I'm telling you, man, if you're not gearing up when the Pope says it's World War III, and then says it again, this time a couple weeks ago.
Look at this one.
Pope Francis repeats warning of Third World War.
The tempest of the COVID-19 pandemic has imposed various limitations on our daily lives and pastoral activities.
Now it seems the worst is over, and thanks be to God.
But unfortunately, Europe and the entire world are convulsed by a war of particular gravity.
In terms of the violation of international law, the risks of nuclear escalation, and the grave economic and social consequences.
It is a piecemeal third world war, to which you bear witness in the places where you carry out your mission.
The World War, First World War, the Great War, and World War II didn't just start per se.
Things were happening.
Weimar Germany, inflation, political disputes, persecution, rioting.
This is all happening now.
We talk about civil war in this country, but the rise of the Nazi Party precipitated World War II.
People look at it as one event.
It's not.
Weimar, Germany, the rise of the Nazis, and the Communist Party, the clashes, and then ultimately the Nazis' seizure of power, the burning of the Reichstag, etc.
And then, the invasion of Poland, the Sudetenlands, and things like that.
Neville Chamberlain's Peace in Our Day, as Hitler just carried on, carried on, carried on.
The United States is experiencing, potentially, a civil war.
Something like that.
All of this strife, it may precipitate a major conflict.
I think we're heading in that direction.
We've been heading in that direction.
And people think it's supposed to be overnight.
Why?
Because they read history books and in the history books they go from paragraph to paragraph.
The Boston Tea Party and the Boston Massacre were three years apart.
The Emancipation Proclamation, I believe, was in the third year of the Civil War.
Plessy vs. Ferguson happened several years before Abraham Lincoln actually became president, and a civil war was even starting.
Several states seceded from the Union before Abraham Lincoln even became president.
They seceded.
There was no civil war.
It was only a few months later, mind you.
The war actually started.
And then more states joined the Confederacy, and you look at the history books, and you think that all of these things happened very quickly.
The war for independence, the revolutionary period, was 20 years from when it started, and people said, we deserve to be independent.
That means two years at the beginning of the revolutionary period, a child was born.
He was 18 years old when it ended, probably fighting for independence at 17.
Isn't that crazy to think?
That you were born into a world and by the time you were speaking English, it was the revolutionary period.
And then eventually you fought too.
Reminds me of the movie, The Patriot.
One of my favorite movies of all time.
Where these young kids are like, I want to go fight.
And he's like, no, no, no, don't do it.
And his kids die.
I think a lot of these urban liberal types are in for a very, very rude awakening.
Not because they may see combat, but because they may go without food.
And they don't know how to survive.
So what will they do?
These cities are going to break apart.
We've been seeing the U.S.
prepare for Pacific theater for some time.
Pacific theater conflict and combat.
I don't know where we go.
Maybe it won't be World War III.
Maybe Putin really is bluffing.
Take your bet.
Roll the die.
How much are you willing to put down?
You placed your chip on the pass line.
Was it worth it?
You know what I see is... You've got an opportunity.
Not to gamble.
And that is, keep your chip in your hand.
You know you've got it.
Transfer that chip to somebody for a bag of food that'll last you 25 years.
Or put it on the pass line.
Gamble.
Maybe you'll be fine.
Maybe the money in your pocket's better served for buying a PlayStation 5.
Let me tell you, only when the bombs drop, when the ports are closed, when the food is gone and the rivers dry, will you realize you can't eat your material possessions.
And for those of us that have chickens, for those of you that have goats, for those of us who have thought about how we would live off the land and tried to homestead or at least make ourselves as self-reliant as possible, we'll be okay.
For the most part.
Life won't be easy.
But it'll be life.
Maybe none of this goes that direction.
Maybe it wraps up.
Make your bet.
I'll leave it there.
Next segment's coming up at 8 p.m.

Thanks for hanging out, and we'll see you all then.
The people who claim that Ron DeSantis was exploiting poor migrants are exploiting poor migrants by filing a class action lawsuit against DeSantis.
Now, of course, the story is migrants file class action lawsuit against DeSantis, claim Martha's vineyard trip was comparable to what they fled in Venezuela.
Spare me your psychosis.
I don't blame the migrants for this.
This is clearly coming from leftist activists.
They probably told them what to say and said, here's the form, just sign it, roll with it.
We're gonna do exactly what we're claiming they do when they're not doing it.
Projection much?
Here's the story, my friends.
Ron DeSantis has responded to the class action lawsuit, and it's amazing.
He even included an image of the consent form signed by the migrants outlining exactly what was happening.
You see, here's the reality.
Ron DeSantis did not do an overt political stunt.
I think he actually said, this makes sense, and it'll probably send a message.
Political stunt, perhaps, an element of it.
But basically, you get these illegal immigrants who come in, and he says, look, what do we do if we can't handle these migrants in these places?
We do not have the amenities for all of these people coming across the border, and these liberal urban Democrat types keep voting for it.
Hey man, then send them there.
Hey, well there's an idea.
Here's the thing.
Joe Biden has been sending migrants to New York, to Ohio, to urban Democrat cities, and they never said a thing.
They go into Californian cities, no one bats an eye.
Ron DeSantis says, all right, we'll send them your way.
And then suddenly everyone loses their minds because they're liars, they're hypocrites, and they're projecting what they do So now, a liberal organization has assisted these migrants in filing a lawsuit.
Of course, it's the migrants who filed the lawsuit.
But do you think that these migrants know anything about U.S.
law or the Constitution?
No.
It's activist organizations doing it for them to target Ron DeSantis.
Ron got a standing ovation, and he broke fundraising records when he was giving a speech, and then, you know, I think this issue came up.
Let's take a look at the story and see exactly what they're doing.
From TimGuess.com, A leftist legal organization has filed a class-action lawsuit against Florida Governor Ron DeSantis on behalf of the migrants flown to Martha's Vineyard last week.
Exploiting migrants much?
Approximately 50 migrants were flown to Martha's Vineyard, as we know.
The lawsuit was filed by Lawyers for Civil Rights on behalf of three Venezuelan migrants and Alianza Americas, an activist organization that works for migrant rights.
It alleges that the foreign nationals were manipulated, stripped them of their dignity, deprived them of their liberty, bodily autonomy, due process, and equal protection under the law.
All not true.
We'll get through this and I'll show you the permission slip, the consent form.
It also alleges that the private flight to the elite vacation destination was cruelty akin to what they fled in Venezuela.
I would love to see a judge adjudicate these claims.
So, I've been to Venezuela, my friends, and as much as the people there are wonderful, and the food actually was pretty good, I got to, I don't know what it's called, but they have, their signature dish is arepas, and they take like a corn bun, and they cut it open, and they take pulled chicken with avocado mashed together, and they stick it in, and they put some cheese, lettuce, and tomato on it.
Delicious.
Just absolutely delicious.
But I've been there.
And I've seen how bad it really is.
I've seen how bad it can be for a lot of these people.
There's something called, I think it's called the Tower of David, a skyscraper that was never finished.
So people live in this skyscraper slum.
It's crazy.
You can ferry a motorcycle to drive you up 10 flights of stairs where the parking was gonna be, and then you have to climb all the way to the top.
So people who just live on the top floors in this unfinished skyscraper, that's crazy.
It's crazy.
Now, you want to claim that being flown to one of the wealthiest places in the world is akin to that?
Spare me.
I'd love to see a judge say something about that.
These immigrants who are pursuing the proper channels for lawful immigration status in the United States experience cruelty akin to what they fled in their home country.
Wrong.
They're illegal immigrants.
They enter illegally and then try to assert some asylum claim.
You can argue that what they're doing is the legal path, sort of.
The real legal path would be to go to a consulate, to go to an embassy, and file your paperwork, and then wait.
Or, if you have to leave immediately because there's a real threat to your life, which I believe Venezuela does have, of course, then you're going to wait at the border, the southern border, and apply for asylum in Mexico, in the United States, while you're in Mexico.
Apply for asylum while you're in Mexico is what I meant to say.
But here's the other thing.
Why aren't these people applying for asylum in Mexico for Mexican asylum and refugee status?
It's insane to me.
The lies.
Mexico is awesome.
Tons of Americans are fleeing now to Mexico City.
You saw the story where it's like Mexicans are angry that a bunch of white Americans are going there and speaking English and they're like, what's happening to our country?
So these people won't go there even though Americans want to be there?
Get out of here, dude.
I say along with Governor Ron DeSantis, the lawsuit names the Florida Department of Transportation, Secretary of the Florida Department of Transportation Jared Perdue, and five unnamed individuals and organizations who helped arrange the stunt.
The complaint says that Governor DeSantis and the other defendants interfered with the federal government's exclusive control over immigration in furtherance of an unlawful goal and personal political agenda.
The attorneys additionally allege that a rep of Governor DeSantis gained the trust of the migrants by giving them $10 McDonald's gift cards.
Oh, you can't even give them free food from McDonald's?
Under the auspices of acting out of the goodness of their hearts, the Doe defendants made false promises and false representations that if the individual plaintiffs and other class members were willing to board airplanes to other states, they would receive employment, housing, educational opportunities, and other like assistance at their arrival.
The Doe defendants also told the individual plaintiffs and other class members that they would receive assistance with their immigration proceedings at their destination, the suit claims.
And that's true.
Let's break this down.
Let's break this down.
Alright, what were they offered?
What were they allegedly offered?
Employment, housing, educational opportunities, other like assistance.
Do sanctuary cities allow employment of illegal immigrants?
Yes, they do.
That's why they're sanctuaries.
Do they offer housing?
Yes, they do.
And they did.
They put them in Boston and gave them a place to live.
Educational opportunities.
Now, I don't know the specifics there, but again, sanctuary cities.
An opportunity is not a guarantee.
They're saying you'll have a chance to get an education there.
Other-like assistance.
They would help them with their immigration proceedings.
That's what sanctuary cities are.
What did they lie about?
The situation amounts to false imprisonment, according to the organization.
So you mean to tell me that when you create a sanctuary jurisdiction, you will not be able to get unemployment, housing, or educational opportunities?
That sounds exactly like what you are offering them.
So if Ron DeSantis or anyone went to these migrants and said, look, these are sanctuary cities.
They won't deport you.
They will help you process your immigration.
You'll have an opportunity to get a job, housing, or an education.
How is any of that not true?
That's right.
They're lying.
DeSantis has asserted the migrants boarded the flight willingly.
So here we have from Julio Rosas.
Florida Governor DeSantis' office responds to the class action lawsuit that was filed in Massachusetts.
The migrants were homeless, hungry, and abandoned.
These activists didn't care about them.
And the office also provided the consent form.
This is amazing.
So here's the official statement.
They say...
It is opportunistic that activists would use illegal immigrants for political theater.
If these activists spent even a fraction of this time and effort at the border, perhaps some accountability would be brought to the Biden administration's reckless border policies that entice illegal immigrants to make dangerous and often lethal journeys through Central America and put their lives in the hands of cartels and coyotes.
I'd like to point out an honorable mention.
When Donald Trump mentioned in the debate, That coyotes were taking advantage of these immigrants.
And then liberals en masse went on Twitter and started laughing, thinking that Donald Trump was referring to animals.
When in fact, they just were too ignorant to know that coyote is a trafficker.
They didn't know that.
They thought Trump literally meant animals.
And they said, well you can't blame us, because Trump probably did.
No, Trump was referring to human traffickers.
The transportation of the immigrants to Martha's Vineyard was done on a voluntary basis.
The immigrants were homeless, hungry, and abandoned.
And these activists didn't care about them then.
Florida's program gave them a fresh start in a sanctuary state, and these individuals opted to take advantage of a chartered flight to Massachusetts.
It was disappointing that Martha's Vineyard called in the Massachusetts National Guard to bus them away from the island within 48 hours.
Attached is a consent form for the flight to Massachusetts, and linked for reference is Texas consent form.
Well, amazing.
Here it is.
Official Consent to Transport.
Now it's in English and Spanish.
It says, I blank born on blank.
Agreed to be transported by the benefactor or its designated representatives to locations outside of Texas to locations in sanctuary states.
I agree to hold the benefactor or its designated representatives harmless of all liability arising out of or in any way relating to any injuries and damages that may occur regarding the agreed transport to locations outside of Texas until the final destination of Massachusetts.
The benefactor and designated officials represent that they are not providing transport made in furtherance of any unlawful entry into the United States.
Now, that's the English.
In Spanish it says, Consentimiento Oficial para Transportacion.
And then it says, yo, redacted.
And then, uh, I don't know, uh, I don't know what that word is.
I don't speak Spanish. Actually, just enough to get by.
But, uh...
Haciendo que el benefactor ni sus representantes son responsables por dafios...
Oh, I can't read Spanish.
Anyway, you get the point.
They signed it.
Ferma! Signature.
130922.
Hey, that's September 13th.
Lugar de salida.
TX.
Lugar de Lagada, MA.
26-01-88.
Facha en Nacimiento.
Is that date of birth, I guess?
Yeah, it's their date of birth, it looks like.
Here they've actually stated they are leaving Texas and heading to Massachusetts.
They knew this.
In what way, in any way, did DeSantis or anyone else do wrong by telling them exactly what they were doing?
Uh, and then the benefactor represents, designates, blah blah blah.
Transportation of individuals.
So, basically it says the same thing.
Well, here's the response.
One guy says, the consent form is in English, but where to sign is in Spanish.
And?
So what?
One guy says, uh, signing a form consenting to do something because you were lied to doesn't make the consent legitimate.
Bro, this guy doesn't understand how the law works.
He says, It has as much validity as sending a consent form to get into an unmarked van because somebody promised you candy, and then no candy is provided.
In response, Stick Ballris, excellent name, says, I hear you, but the consent form just says they are being taken to a sanctuary city.
It doesn't specify which one.
Unless Martha's Vineyard isn't a sanctuary city, I don't know if it's not.
No, you're both wrong.
Sorry.
It says, to a sanctuary state.
To locations in sanctuary states.
Locations.
In sanctuary states.
Who knows where.
And more importantly, the consent form shows they acknowledged they would be leaving Texas and heading to Massachusetts.
End of story.
They wrote that in.
The individual who signed it and put their birthday wrote the states of departure and arrival.
Which means, they were aware of where they were going.
You cannot blame Ron DeSantis for that.
Now, if they wrote in, if DeSantis' people wrote in Texas and Massachusetts, maybe you can argue they didn't understand what that meant.
They wrote in TXMA.
They did.
Now, perhaps they were lied to.
I'm sorry.
Look.
Contracts can be void if you lie.
That is true.
But this outlines exactly what they did to the T.
What are they going to say?
As they stated in the suit, I was told there would be job opportunities, employment, education.
Those opportunities are there in a sanctuary city.
Now, hold on.
Just because Martha's Vineyard deported them does not negate that they do offer these things.
Case in point, right now, they are in Massachusetts where they agreed to go.
At the Cape Cod military base, where they have food, and they have housing, and they have these opportunities, and they are being assisted with their immigration and all of that stuff by these activists, and the lawsuit is actually evidence that they are being assisted.
Now isn't that something?
The lawsuit itself proves they are receiving the assistance and the opportunities they were promised, negating itself.
It's a paradox!
Incredible, huh?
But they consented to it.
And now you get people who are trying to desperately justify.
One person says, separate question, in Florida, isn't it the state senate that is supposed to decide how state funds are spent?
And yes.
Good point.
Good question.
One responder says yes they did, with restrictions.
It allowed for transport of undocumented migrants being removed from Florida.
That wasn't the case here.
It also required two bids to contract the flight.
That didn't happen either.
The contract was awarded to a DeSantis donor without bids.
Now I don't know about all that.
But what I do know is, there is a bill which has been circulating, the budget, which says they allocated I think $12 million towards transporting people, it may have said, from Florida.
That's an interesting point.
So there are questions about why it came from Texas.
And I honestly, I'm wondering why it came from Texas.
There are Venezuelan migrants illegally in Florida as well.
Why Texas?
Interesting question.
And why was the sentence involved?
Where did the money come from?
I got no problem with saying, I would like to have these questions answered.
Look at this.
People are just linking lawyers and guys.
Is it consent when given under false pretenses?
Yes.
Sorry.
Have a nice day.
Now, the literal answer is no.
The legal answer is no.
But how are you going to prove false pretenses?
So, look.
A lot of people seem to think that contracts are guaranteed.
Here's what has to happen.
Let's say I promise that I will give you this here guitar pick.
I say, I will give you this guitar pick in exchange for $1,000,000.
You sign the contract.
And then you hand me $1,000,000.
And I hand you this guitar pick.
You then sue.
And say, I was told the guitar pick was a rare item that Jimi Hendrix used when he played.
And it was the last of its kind.
And that was not true.
Yes, you're alleging fraud.
So that contract may be void.
Maybe.
The issue is, will the individual lie under oath and have any means to back up their claims?
So, if the person who lied and committed the fraud goes in and says, I told them it was a standard guitar pick, here's what's going to happen.
The judge is going to say, in what sane world would a person give a million dollars for a guitar pick?
That makes no sense.
We're going to void this transaction.
It is not.
It just makes no sense.
Judges can do that.
If you try and... See, that's obvious.
This guitar pick in no way is worth a million bucks, and no reasonable person would have accepted the terms of that deal had they known the truth.
And you can argue, no, they knew the truth, and the judge would be like, if they did, why would they give you a million bucks for a ten-cent piece of plastic?
Yeah, sorry.
They can void it.
There's a lot of things they can do.
As for this...
The consent form outlines everything they did to the T. It doesn't make any promises of employment.
So you can say, well, they promised me things that didn't happen.
And Ron can be like, do sanctuary states allow illegal immigrants to work?
They do.
Housing?
They do.
Education?
Many do.
Yes.
So we didn't promise them anything that wasn't made available to them.
And in fact, it's all available to them now.
So these, you know, here's what I see on Twitter.
I love this.
People thinking they know the law and they don't understand that judges have a lot of power.
And they seem to think that lawsuits are fact.
I see this on the left and the right too.
Someone will file a lawsuit and they'll say, I allege that John Smith did a backflip.
And then people will report, lawsuit, quote, John Smith did backflip.
And people will be like, wow, did you hear what happened?
John Smith did a backflip.
And you're like, dude, they are alleging he did.
It is not proven in court.
It is a claim.
And just because they filed a claim doesn't mean they'll win.
Doesn't mean it's true.
And I love this too.
Like with Alex Jones.
They're like, he was just ordered by a court to pay 45 million dollars.
And it's like, yeah, get in line, buddy.
Here's how it works.
Let's say I take out a loan for a million dollars to buy a property.
I now owe a person a million dollars.
Then someone sues me.
There is a line of debtors, and the court can be like, you gotta pay this person a million bucks, and be like, that's true, but this guy was owed first.
You can't interfere with a third party's debt repayment because you sued.
That wouldn't be fair to that third party.
To put it simply, if Alex Jones owes a million bucks to person A, a million bucks to person B, and a million bucks to person C, and 45 million to person D, person A, B, and C are not going to let him start paying the lawsuit party.
Because they want their money.
And they're gonna say, just because you sue doesn't mean you can take the money from us.
He's gotta pay us!
So get in line, buddy.
The point is, these people think that the lawsuit means Alex Jones will pay these people money.
I don't think they're gonna see a single penny.
It's going to be jammed up in the courts, and then what's going to happen?
A sheriff may come and say, we're going to take your assets.
It's going to be like, actually you can't because those assets are being given away to someone else already.
I'm penniless.
We'll see though.
I don't think he is, but I don't want to get into Alex Jones.
My point is simply that this lawsuit is a political stunt.
What DeSantis did in some ways I believe is a political stunt, but in many ways it's not.
Sanctuary City says we can accommodate them.
Cities say they can accommodate these people.
So transporting them there is just abiding by what they voted to do.
If Texas can't sustain it, if Florida can't sustain it, and these people say they insist they will, then it was the right thing to do for these migrants.
The idea that they would then sue, they are being manipulated and used as pawns by these liberal elites.
Dave Smith put it really well.
I mentioned this the other day.
They vote for sanctuary policies, but they're not border states.
They vote to take away your guns, but they have armed security guards.
You see how the game is played.
The moment you actually make them live up to what they vote for, they lose their minds!
And they claim you're doing all the things they're actually doing.
I think this consent form is clear as day.
It says Texas, it says Massachusetts, and it was signed, dated, and all that.
So they knew.
They wrote in the states to where they would go.
And what's wrong about being promised these things?
Now, first of all, can we prove they actually promised these things?
No.
You can say, they promised me unemployment and all that stuff, and they can be like, we gave them a consent form and they signed it.
Sanctuary cities, whatever they heard about sanctuary cities, maybe they misconstrued, but they agreed to be transported there.
And right now, they are getting food, they are getting shelter, and they are in a sanctuary state.
Everything promised in the allegations is happening for them.
In fact, this lawsuit is actually, as I stated, this is assistance towards their immigration process.
So you want to come out and claim that they're not getting these things, the lawsuit itself proves Your lawsuit wrong.
Absolutely brilliant.
Absolutely brilliant.
Ron DeSantis hit a grand slam with this one.
So, you know what this, these are the kind of moves that I think make, that show DeSantis is presidential.
Absolutely.
And we had another story that I'll just, I'll briefly mention.
DeSantis keeps White House and Delaware and media guessing on migrant flight plans.
A flight initially bound for Delaware was rerouted to New Jersey.
I think he's got to do it.
I think Ron needs to send as many migrants as possible to keep sending, just Martha's Vineyard.
Just lay it on, baby, until Martha's Vineyard, what, cancels flights and proves they won't allow immigrants in?
Think about it.
If Ron loads up ten planes and tells these migrants exactly what's happening and shows them the news story and says, look, these people are at a military base, they have housing, they're not going to be deported.
Seems like a good bet for you.
They'll agree to it, these migrants.
Send these people to Martha's Vineyard, and what will Martha's Vineyard do?
Shut down their airport.
That's right.
They will suspend migration.
How much do you want to bet?
I'll leave it there.
Next segment's coming up at 1pm on this channel.
Thanks for hanging out, and we'll see you all then.
Benny Johnson of Turning Point USA was attacked by a maniac!
Got arrested.
Yeah, just the other day.
Just the other day.
It's been a couple weeks since Joe Biden warned this country of MAGA Republican extremists.
And then only a couple weeks later, just the other day, a man got in an SUV and crushed a teenager, killing him.
Why?
He called the police and said that the kid was a Republican extremist.
Do you think that Joe Biden had anything to do with that?
I don't blame Joe Biden for expressing his opinion, saying these people are evil, or just not liking their politics, and saying there's a threat.
But the left comes out and talks about Donald Trump's stochastic terrorism, and then engages in behavior like this, and then claims the right is killing people!
They're literally killing people!
And they're going out literally killing people.
And they're going out and actually destroying things and attacking people.
And they're going out and bringing on these district attorneys who are releasing criminals and crime is skyrocketing.
And then they blame you when you want to defend yourself.
It's crazy, isn't it?
Clown world!
From the post-millennial!
They say a Tuesday night University of Iowa event featuring TPUSA contributor Benny Johnson was violently interrupted by a man who drop kicked a table and a video projector and according to eyewitnesses was arrested.
I don't think he drop kicked it.
He just kicked it.
Like, a dropkick is when you, like, jump and with both feet kick, so I don't think that's what happened.
Johnson was speaking on the subject of memes.
When his presentation was disrupted by a young man wearing a green bandana on his head, footage shows the man reacting to a Kamala Harris meme by yelling, racist, A, B, F, U, and then dropkicking and destroying a projector.
Footage taken outside the event shows the individual getting arrested and being escorted away by police.
Shortly after the event, Johnson tweeted breaking, I was giving a speech about memes at the University of Iowa tonight.
With TPUSA, a Kamala Harris meme triggered the violent libs so bad they attacked the projector and smashed it to pieces.
I told you the left can't meme.
Johnson is currently on tour of American campuses under the title Meme Wars, where he discusses how conservatives can fight back in the culture wars by unlocking the power of meme magic!
Despite the violent incident, the event continued, and Johnson even took photos with far-left attendees who made vulgar gestures.
We often say the left can't meme.
Tonight, we proved it.
I was giving a peaceful speech to the University of Iowa Turning Point USA chapter about memes this evening.
During a presentation, we played a harmless meme of Kamala Harris welcoming a bus full of migrants set to tasteful mariachi music.
That is when a low-T leftist strung out on pure soy snapped into a violent rage.
Oh, pure soy!
Strung out on soy.
I watched dispassionately as the lib's last drop of testosterone evaporated in an unprovoked kick attack on an innocent projector.
The projector's crime?
Playing memes.
Thankfully, no one was hurt by the domestic terror attack other than an innocent Panasonic projector.
The perpetrator was arrested soon after and booked for a hate crime against memes.
Our heart goes out to the brave Iowa City Police Department.
Fund the police.
Let this moment serve as a poignant metaphor for what happens to meme makers across social media when their accounts get attacked.
As someone who lived through January 6th, I can tell you this attack was much scarier and represents a larger existential threat to our democracy.
The First Amendment is under attack constantly from the left.
It survived.
This time, the left can't meme.
They can't.
There used to be a subreddit on Reddit called The Left Can't Meme.
Now, all you ever see is a subreddit called The Right Can't Meme.
It's a psyop.
We know now that there are organizations in the US, this was Washington Post reporting, that are engaged in psychological operations, namely to promote Ukraine and anti-Russia narratives.
But I think it's fairly obvious to anyone who understands the psychological operations as they've been handled in the United States.
So we know that top brass in the executive branch in the military and intelligence agencies were freaking out because memes were undermining our security.
How?
Well, they helped Donald Trump win.
The left really can't meme.
So what they have is assistance from organizations to meme on their behalf.
Reddit then bans right-wing groups and stops those memes from happening.
As it turns out, MIT Technology Review found that in 2015 and 2016, I believe it was, with Donald Trump's rise to the presidency, memes were predominantly produced on 4chan and, I believe, the Donald subreddit.
When you'd see memes, that's where they'd originate.
Now right now, there's an argument from the left that the right can't meme.
And so what they do is, they take boomer memes, post them on Reddit, and claim, this is the right, they can't meme!
Meanwhile, almost every single meme, slang term or otherwise, generates from the right, and then is utilized by the left.
I'll give you a few examples.
Snowflake.
Y'all remember Snowflake?
It was a reference to Fight Club, in reference to being a delicate little snowflake.
And it's because the left was getting triggered.
Namely because they had pastel rooms at universities where they would go and hide if words triggered them.
Now the left calls the right snowflakes when they get offended by things, appropriating a meme that came from the right.
There are many such instances.
How about living rent-free in your head, which predominantly emerged on the right and now is utilized by the left.
This is the reality of things.
You have Dark Maga, Donald Trump, and The Revenge.
And then now all of a sudden you have Dark Brandon.
They're just ripping off right-wing memes because they can't do it themselves.
Sad and pathetic.
But the real issue here is not the memes, not the memes.
No, it's the violence and the insanity.
This guy attacked.
This guy is unhinged.
I think many of these leftists, they have no life.
And I don't mean like some generic get a life.
I mean like quite literally they have no faith.
In anything.
I'm not talking about religion.
I'm saying they have no hope.
They have no vision of a future.
They don't believe in anything.
They have no mission.
They're just angry.
And they don't know what to be angry at.
And I have to wonder about this.
Humans, evolutionary psychology, evolutionary biology, these things are really interesting to me.
You take a bunch of people, a bunch of humans, and you put them in the middle of the woods with no technology, and then what happens is those most adaptable to survival will survive.
So you start to see things, I'll give you a simple example of evolutionary psychology in biology, evolutionary culture.
100 men and 100 women.
99 men die.
1 man survives.
That 1 man impregnates 100 women over the course of a few weeks.
And in 9 months, he has 100 babies.
100 women, 100 babies.
Now, I honestly don't think you'd be able to impregnate all of them that quickly, but you get the point.
All these women can have kids, and one guy can inseminate them all.
If 99 women die, and there's 100 men, they're doomed.
They won't be able to create enough people to replace themselves, and they're in serious trouble.
It would take decades to start to rebuild and get a female population, but one baby every nine months?
They're lucky!
And what if the baby's not even a girl?
Serious trouble.
This results in gender norms.
It results in a society that says women must be protected at all costs, and a general bias in favor of keeping women safe, which also turns into a net negative for women who don't want to be on lockdown and want to have the ability to go and roam about freely and do their business.
Anyway, here's my point.
A society survives This tribe of humans survives when they are passionate and driven towards expansion.
Why?
Humans that are more likely to seek out resources, even if they don't need it, are more likely to survive.
If you have two human tribes, and one says, if we don't need it, we don't waste our time, they could be benefited by the fact they save energy.
Instead of chasing down excess resources and failing, they preserve the energy within their bodies and don't waste energy and time.
They eat with the food they have that's available.
However, I believe that evolutionarily what happens is you have one tribe of people, and they say, we have food, we want more.
Winter comes.
The people who did not prepare are wiped out.
The people who prepared, over-prepared, survive the winter.
Maybe not winter, maybe it's a storm, maybe it's a drought, maybe it's a famine.
What ends up happening is humans that succeeded to this point were driven constantly to have more.
And that's why humans always want more.
Now, I bring you to a world where food is in abundance, and there's nothing to be done.
You go to the supermarket, and it's dirt cheap for food for the most part.
But that passion and that anger is still there, but there is nothing you can get, nothing you can take!
For many people, they were placed that hole with faith.
That there is a mission, there is something they must pursue.
They're driven towards it.
And for some, there's nothing.
So what do they do?
They fill the hole with rage, and they're confused, and they're violent, and they attack people.
And this is what you see.
This guy who attacked the projector has no idea what he's talking about.
There's no reason for doing this.
It did nothing.
It's just rage for the sake of rage.
Probably because I think humans are driven towards a mission.
To be impassioned, and angered, and strive towards something.
But when there's nothing to strive towards because you're already the wealthiest country in the world, what do you do?
You lash out.
This morning, I had bacon and eggs for breakfast.
Readily available at my fingertips, a big ol' pack of thick-cut bacon.
Mmm, so good.
And I took some crushed black pepper and sprinkled it all over my bacon and eggs.
I don't do the salt, just the bacon.
Bacon's salty enough.
And I thought to myself, there was a time when people were murdered for black peppercorn.
The East India Trading Company went on much, many a venture.
Wars were fought so that food could taste good.
And black peppercorn at one point, I believe, was like the most expensive spice in the world.
And now, it's a table spice.
It is THE table spice.
Anywhere you go, it's just sittin' right there.
Black pepper flakes.
You go to Walmart, bargain bin.
Sittin' in a big ol' bin on sale.
10, 10, you know, 20% off, 30% off.
We are so wealthy that what was once one of the most expensive things to put on your food is now just readily available and negligible.
You walk into a diner, you sit down, there's the pepper and the salt and you just don't care.
That's how wealthy we are.
Even the poorest people in this country.
Homeless guy.
Says, please, please, I would like lunch.
And someone says, here's ten bucks, buy yourself dinner.
Thank you.
He walks into a diner.
Ten bucks won't go far these days.
But he sits down and says, You know what?
I'll get chips and salsa.
Seven dollars.
How about that?
At a restaurant.
I know, it's kind of expensive, but they bring it out.
And he says, pepper and salt.
Sitting right there with my chips.
Don't want it.
Don't need it.
But this homeless guy, how about this?
He goes to McDonald's, and they have little packets of pepper and salt.
And he gets a burger for a buck, and he sprinkles black pepper on it.
And he says, like the finest kings of old, I have black peppercorn, but I am but a homeless man.
That's how wealthy we are.
And because of this derangement, it's resulting in an inversion.
Take a look at this.
From the Postmillennial, Chicago stops responding to 911 calls after a surge during Mexican Independence Day celebrations.
Crazy.
In audio obtained by CrimeIsDown.com, the dispatcher can be heard telling Novales that most everything on his call board was over three hours old.
Crime's through the roof.
The DAs can't handle it.
The system is crumbling.
Because people are now reacting in random directions because there's no direction anymore.
We have food.
We have everything.
What can you want?
There's nothing!
So what do they do?
Insanity.
You know, I look at it this way.
It's like a cultural cancer.
When you have a life form, you have a society, and there's a hundred people, and they say, in order to survive, we need food.
10% of these people say something like, garbledy gobbledy boobedy bop.
And you say, that is gibberish nonsense.
That's not actually words.
And they just prance about spinning in circles.
90 or 80, you know, however many people.
I'll say 90 people.
They go and they find food and they eat.
And the garbledy-gook nonsense people starve.
And then die.
And we don't want them to, but, you know, they're unwell.
So they don't make it.
So then only 90 people survive, and they have kids, and those kids are less likely to be garbled nonsense.
But garbled nonsense and insanity can happen.
Over time, Humanity flourishes with the weak failing and dying.
We don't like death.
We try to help everyone.
That's increased our chances of survival.
But now comes the next phase.
We have now done such a good job saving lives that we continually are defending, creating, and expanding people who are incapable of self-survival.
That's what I think is happening.
Now, again, we want people to live, even if they are incapable.
We don't want them to die.
But you see, ultimately, what this results in is that people who would not be considered fit, in terms of natural selection, procreate, have kids, expand, eventually end up with a culture that is aimless, and only survive off the backs of its forebearers.
The end result there is, you now have 90 people who are saying gobbledygook nonsense and 10% who are saying, please, please, we need food.
What happens?
Eventually, the producers, who are being overwhelmed, stop producing, flee.
It's like Ayn Rand wrote, right?
And the people who can't sustain themselves, don't know where food comes from, starve.
And there's a mass collapse.
Because the organization, the organism system, the society can't sustain itself.
This is what you get.
Newt Gingrich has something interesting to say.
He says society is going to collapse.
Civilization will break down over rising crime rates in big cities.
That's right.
I agree with him.
We now have too many people who don't understand reality, who feel entitled, and who could not survive on their own.
Extracting resources from those who can.
It's only a matter of time before the producers stop producing.
Or there are too many non-producers.
Now we can keep striving towards technological advancements to make sure that doesn't happen, or we may just end up with a collapse.
I would not be surprised if in the coming years we see a major Black Plague level collapse.
Because the system cannot be sustained this way.
And you also have powerful special interests that want to see population reduction anyway.
After the Black Death swept through Europe, we got the Renaissance.
Why?
The weak were culled.
It's an unfortunate reality.
I certainly don't advocate for it.
But I think you need to understand the reality.
If you have 90 people who are incompetent and 10 people who are competent, the 90 people will outvote the 10 competent people with policies that make no sense.
And then the system will implode whether you want it to or not.
That's what we see happening now with crime.
I feel like it's only going to get worse.
New Orleans becomes the murder capital of America, overtaking St.
Louis.
Yikes, man.
The scary thing is, that doesn't mean crime is going down in St.
Louis.
New Orleans has overtaken St.
Louis as the nation's murder capital, with a 141% spike in homicides over the last several years.
St.
Louis, it's probably still getting worse there as well.
So what do you do, man?
What do you do?
Knowing these things, you can try and reject them.
You can try and say, it's not real, it's not gonna happen.
Or, you can get away from cities, get some chickens, some goats, some cows, learn how to grow your own food, and learn how to survive the way humans were.
The way they were surviving hundreds of years ago.
Now's the chance.
Now's the opportunity.
Because the fourth turning predicts a major collapse or something is coming in the next few years.
Maybe by the time we get to, I don't know, 2026, we will see major war or something.
I ask myself this question from time to time, and I've mentioned it on my show.
Name an item, or should I say what item, is the most valuable at-home item that is difficult to reproduce.
And I kind of feel like maybe antiseptics.
Mouthwash.
Now, some people have said that alcohol is actually not too hard to produce.
For sure.
But, um, having antiseptics is extremely important.
You stub your toe, you get a little cut.
Amputation.
I was reading about, I went to Stonewall Jackson's house this past week, and I mentioned this previously, and I was reading about a battlefield surgeon who was a master of amputation.
And it's just amazing that they had to amputate.
And I'm like, wouldn't the amputation create a larger wound, as it is?
It's amazing how they didn't, they understood to amputate, but they didn't understand why they had to.
It's just weird.
Imagine someone got injured.
And they pulled out the musket ball or whatever.
And then they just washed the wound.
Or had something as simple as alcohol.
They had alcohol!
This is the craziest thing.
They had alcohol.
They had rum.
It's antiseptic.
You could splash it all over.
I don't know how effective, to be honest.
But it's crazy.
They didn't know this.
To clean the wound and splash.
Only they knew.
If only someone spoke a single sentence to these people.
Well, we know.
We now know.
So, if you know how to do it, if you know how to distill, I don't know if wine would necessarily be as antiseptic enough, but you could probably get the alcohol content down substantially with basic chemistry knowledge.
It can be done.
You can do it.
It can be done.
I don't know if civilization will collapse to an insane degree like that.
I just think chance favors the prepared.
And as we watch maniacs attack speakers, and lunatics crush teenagers for being Republicans, I think it would be wise, appropriate, for you to figure out how to properly grow food, and raise animals, and prepare for the worst.
I think you'd be better off homesteading.
Being as self-sufficient as possible.
It's better for the environment, it's better for your health, and it'll protect you in the future.
So let's say this one more time.
Mentally, homesteading is better for you.
Physically, it is better for you.
You'll be more fit.
It will prepare you for the future.
It will be better for the environment.
There is just no downside at all.
I suppose you'll be in less proximity to buffalo wild wings, which I know, it sucks.
But we're not that far away from B-dubs out here.
You know, we got middle of nowhere big acreage and we can do all this stuff.
And it's amazing when you grow the food and you just come out one day and there's your breakfast right there.
Just ready and waiting for you.
It really is an amazing feeling.
The chickens crap out the egg, you grab a couple fresh from the butts of those chickens, and you grab some tomatoes and some zucchinis, and you got some protein and you got a good breakfast.
You get some pigs in the mix, you get some cows in the mix, you get some dairy, some pork, there you go, baby.
You gotta learn how to store and prepare the meat and all that stuff.
How to preserve it.
And they, uh, smoke it.
You can smoke it, you can salt it.
I think they, they've even done, they would do sawdust, and like, you know, something like that, sawdust to dry it out or whatever.
I don't, uh, honestly don't know, um, proper preservation.
Solar panels can be useful because solar panels can run a freezer for you.
Doesn't take that much to run a freezer.
The point is this.
Crime is skyrocketing.
People are going insane.
What are you doing to protect yourself, your friends, and your family in the event of a true catastrophe?
Because maybe it's not the collapse of civilization like Newt Gingrich says.
Maybe it's just a storm.
I'd recommend getting away from cities because these people are increasingly becoming unhinged.
