---|---|---|
Last night, Donald Trump gave his not State of the Union State of the Union. | ||
Now, normally it would have been a State of the Union address if he served consecutive terms, but because it's the second non-consecutive presidency in U.S. history, they're calling it an address to a joint session of Congress. | ||
My friends, it was an amazing speech. | ||
It was one of the best presidential addresses I have ever seen in my life. | ||
It was the best, just hands down. | ||
It was the most raucous, politically divisive, and just outright crazy. | ||
It was not a good night for Democrats. | ||
Donald Trump says we want to balance the budget. | ||
Not a peep from Democrats. | ||
Donald Trump says we have captured violent murderers. | ||
Not a peep. | ||
We've captured violent terrorists who killed American troops. | ||
Not a peep. | ||
Donald Trump says we will no longer allow these criminal cartel members. | ||
To come in and harm our families. | ||
Not a peep. | ||
He called out to a 13-year-old child who survived brain cancer. | ||
And he said, we are going to make you an honorary Secret Service agent. | ||
Not a peep from Democrats. | ||
That was their plan. | ||
Save one moment. | ||
When Donald Trump said, we have spent upwards of $350 billion funding a war in Ukraine, Democrats erupted. | ||
It's fascinating. | ||
Trump didn't say we are fighting Putin. | ||
He didn't say we're here to save the Ukrainian people. | ||
He said we spent hundreds of billions on their country. | ||
And Democrats started clapping and Trump paused and waited. | ||
And he said, do you want this to keep going on for another five years? | ||
And apparently it's been reported. | ||
Elizabeth Warren, we have the video, said yes. | ||
The only time Democrats cheered was for a foreign country. | ||
And not for this country. | ||
Not for securing our borders. | ||
Not for bringing down prices. | ||
Not for arresting criminals. | ||
Not for securing, and let me just stress, the lowest illegal border crossings in history. | ||
In history. | ||
Nothing. | ||
They don't care about this country, and the polling shows it. | ||
My friends, wait till you see this. | ||
It is not just that the YouGov data says the Americans loved Trump's speech. | ||
They said they're hopeful. | ||
They said they feel pride. | ||
No, it's actually that Democrats have checked out completely. | ||
Now, CBS YouGov is trying to defend why nobody in a representative sample of this country identified as Democrat. | ||
unidentified
|
No, no, no. | |
Hold on there. | ||
Let me say that again. | ||
You heard me right. | ||
When they pulled a YouGov representative sample of this country, they found only 20 percent Democrats. | ||
And they say, but that's normal. | ||
That's normal. | ||
Oh, yeah? | ||
Well, I pulled up the data from the last address by Biden. | ||
It ain't normal. | ||
They're lying. | ||
Or are they going to come out and say, well, last year was different. | ||
That was an anomaly. | ||
No. | ||
The reality is when you pull a representative sample, you are supposed to balance for whether it's Democrat or conservative, which is what the polls are supposed to do. | ||
We found Democrats, independents, Republicans. | ||
Representative sample of this country based on the percentage of votes and things of this nature, and then ask them how they thought about the speech. | ||
So if you're trying to, oh, but what happened? | ||
When they pulled a nationally representative sample, they found no Democrats. | ||
That's right. | ||
The Democratic Party represents nothing. | ||
They come out and they say they defend women while voting against protecting women against men. | ||
The American people can see this. | ||
It's fascinating to me, as I've brought up quite a bit. | ||
These progressive Democrats who used to scream about the military-industrial complex now support it. | ||
Well, because Ukraine, I guess, can't give us a real reason why they do. | ||
Sure, whatever. | ||
I oppose the war in Iraq. | ||
I oppose the war in Afghanistan. | ||
I oppose the war in Syria. | ||
I oppose the extrajudicial assassinations of Barack Obama. | ||
And I oppose the war in Ukraine. | ||
Why? | ||
Because they don't ever give us legitimate reasons for our incursions into foreign countries. | ||
And I largely oppose foreign interventionist policies. | ||
Be it Donald Trump or whoever else who is doing the right thing, they will get credit for this. | ||
Democrats do not operate largely, not all, but largely as a party and their personalities on principle. | ||
They operate on party. | ||
So when the Democratic Party says they are for war, you get your progressive personalities lining up to back the military-industrial complex. | ||
Fascinating, isn't it? | ||
Hypocrites, I say. | ||
And the American people can see it. | ||
And that's why... | ||
They are abandoning the Democrats in huge numbers. | ||
Don't get me wrong, the Democrats still have a large party. | ||
They still have a lot of people. | ||
But take a look at the voter registrations. | ||
Take a look at Florida, Pennsylvania, and now New Jersey shifting rightward. | ||
We've got a couple clips we'll add to context, add context to this, to the speech. | ||
Stephen Smith says on The View, it was 86% of counties shifted rightward. | ||
Trump won every swing state. | ||
This is a mandate. | ||
And then we get bitter and angry Kareem Jean-Pierre saying, no, it isn't. | ||
It's not a mandate because his popular margin was low. | ||
Let's see how things go in the midterms, honestly, because who knows? | ||
Democrats may see a rebound. | ||
We will see. | ||
Trump's got to get a handle on this economy. | ||
He's got the border. | ||
That was one of the big issues for the American people. | ||
But the economy is a big issue, too. | ||
And the economy ain't doing so well. | ||
I think Trump is desperately trying to stop this war in Ukraine, knowing doing so is going to benefit the American economy. | ||
Plus the tariffs, short-term pain, long-term gain. | ||
Let's see if this plays out well, because if in the next year, this pain that is brought on by the tariffs resolves into long-term satisfaction and a booming economy, Trump's going to win. | ||
Republicans are going to win the midterms. | ||
But I'll tell you this, my friends, before we get started, I got a few humble requests of you. | ||

Word of mouth is how podcasts grow. | ||
You wonder why these podcasts, other podcasts, are the biggest shows in the world? | ||
It's because their fans love it that much. | ||
And perhaps we'll never be the biggest. | ||
But I'll tell you this. | ||
If everybody watching right now who liked this show, I mean, if you don't like it, I guess, shared it on social media. | ||
And this I can tell you that most people don't share. | ||
But if literally everybody watching shared, 2-3 million views instantly. | ||
Biggest show in the world overnight. | ||
So if you guys really want to support the show, that's one way to do it. | ||
Let's jump to the story, starting with the polling. | ||
And again, smash that like button and we'll get a good poll in there for you. | ||
We'll get it in a second. | ||
I want to figure out a good question to ask you guys. | ||
We'll start with CBS News. | ||
And the first thing I want to show you all is how the Democratic Party has collapsed. | ||
I understand you like what Trump had to say. | ||
We're going to break down a lot of what was said and where we're currently at with the Democratic Party. | ||
But let me just first show you the first caveat that CBS introduces, which is a lie. | ||
A manipulation at the very least. | ||
Take a look at this. | ||
A large majority of speech watchers approved of what they heard from President Trump's joint address to Congress Tuesday night. | ||
Really? | ||
Well, I thought that was big news when I saw this. | ||
76% approve, 23% disapprove. | ||
And with everyone showing that, I said, wow, Trump's approval rating is very good. | ||
But then YouGov, when you pull up the CBS article, caveats with this. | ||
The viewership was heavily Republican. | ||
Historically, a president's party draws more of their own partisans. | ||
This was no exception. | ||
And they liked what they heard. | ||
And I thought to myself, that can't be true. | ||
Republicans watch the news all the time. | ||
Fifty one percent of viewers were Republican. | ||
Twenty seven percent were independents. | ||
Twenty percent were Democrats. | ||
And so I said to myself, well, of course, Trump's going to end up getting a massive approval. | ||
It's largely Republican. | ||
He's going to win the Republicans, very few Democrats, and many independents. | ||
So that means the rest of the poll is pointless. | ||
It means nothing. | ||
It's actually not true. | ||
Because I actually went and pulled up the previous year's polling to check to see if what they were saying was true. | ||
And oh boy, are they lying. | ||
Now, what they say is this CBS News YouGov survey interviewed a nationally representative sample of speech watchers immediately following the president's address to Congress. | ||
Heavens me! | ||
So the 76th approval rating means nothing. | ||
You basically said, did you watch and were you Republican? | ||
And if the answer was yes, of course you liked it. | ||
OK, let's go back in time. | ||
I'll take you through a time machine called the Internet. | ||
And we'll take a look at this from March 7th, 2024. That's right. | ||
The same address around the same time one year prior. | ||
And let's take a look at how they addressed this. | ||
CBS News poll finds most Americans see State of the Union as divided, but their economic outlook has been improving. | ||
So when it was Biden one year ago, they didn't get the overwhelming support. | ||
Now, hold on there. | ||
Gosh darn minute. | ||
CBS, you told me that historically a president brings more of their own partisans. | ||
That would indicate that every every state of the union or joint congressional address from the president would end up skewing in favor of the president's party. | ||
This was divided. | ||
Well, let's take a look at how they broke this one down. | ||
CBS News asked Americans over the past week if you could give the State of the Union, which would you say describes the country today? | ||
We received some negative evaluations. | ||
Divided. | ||
Fewer Americans picked strong, prospering, or united. | ||
Democrats and Republicans described the country as divided. | ||
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. | ||
Do they mention how they polled a national sample? | ||
Take a look at this. | ||
This is among Biden. | ||
The state of the country is 61% divided, 45% declining. | ||
37% weak. | ||
Where's the I approve or disapprove? | ||
State of the country among Democrats divided. | ||
State of the country divided, declining, weak. | ||
Republicans said so. | ||
Democrats said divided, declining. | ||
25% said strong. | ||
They like Biden. | ||
Things in America today are going well, going badly. | ||
Americans do tell us they would prefer to see the president speak more to the nation rather than less. | ||
OK, now hold on there a minute. | ||
Where's the data on whether the people watching were Democrat or Republican? | ||
Look, when CBS pulled this poll, they say speech made you feel hopeful, proud. | ||
In speech, Trump was among watchers. | ||
Does Trump have a clear plan on inflation? | ||
Trump's plan, blah, blah, blah. | ||
Trump described crime problems. | ||
These are different polls. | ||
These are different. | ||
They're talking more about how you feel about Trump. | ||
They say a survey based on who watched Trump. | ||
Now, this they put out from YouGov around the same time. | ||
Take a look at this. | ||
When you go to the data here, this is what I found really interesting. | ||
All right, I can grab any one of these and check out Party ID. When they did this poll on Biden's address, it was split. | ||
600 Republicans, 603 Republicans, 655 Democrats. | ||
And sure, you can see that the poll skewed. | ||
Now, this one isn't directly addressing his State of the Union. | ||
Although, I mean, they are. | ||
Look at this. | ||
CBS News poll. | ||
So this is the issue I take. | ||
If they want to put another poll saying, how did you feel about the State of the Union? | ||
It's fine. | ||
CBS News poll finds most Americans see State of the Union as divided, but their economic outlook has been improving. | ||
They're talking about Biden's performance, and they did poll. | ||
They polled everybody evenly. | ||
When it comes to how people are being asked about Trump's, whether or not he did well, they're outright saying, well, you know, most people were Republican who watched. | ||
So I call shenanigans. | ||
I call shenanigans on putting this in the forefront, negating their entire poll. | ||
I don't trust them. | ||
I don't. | ||
Well, I do certainly agree. | ||
OK, let's be fair. | ||
Obviously, Democrats are largely going to check out when it comes to Republican. | ||
But I just never believe that Republicans would check out of watching Biden. | ||
They're tuned in. | ||
I say shenanigans to CBS putting this. | ||
In the forefront, right before the whole poll, which gives Democrats an out to say, well, of course, Republicans liked it. | ||
Democrats didn't even watch. | ||
I say this. | ||
I say this. | ||
They could have pulled how Democrats felt about this. | ||
They could have pulled a nationally representative sample of all Americans and not chosen to do 51. They could have skewed it. | ||
They could have said, no, no. | ||
We don't want just Republicans. | ||
We don't want no Democrats. | ||
We understand Republicans may watch more. | ||
Let's get a politically representative national sample of this, in which they would have found perhaps different numbers. | ||
But what they did was they said, oh, it was mostly Republicans who watched, so that's it. | ||
Their poll's worthless. | ||
It's completely worthless. | ||
And their past polls are also worthless because they play the same game. | ||
So the State of the Union, you could poll people and you can ask them about how they feel about it. | ||
But what does it matter? | ||
You could say, Democrats, how do you feel about the State of the Union? | ||
And then say, as Democrats are more likely to. | ||
No, that's ridiculous. | ||
Everybody's sharing this and they're acting like it's a big deal when the reality is, I would say, most people did like Trump's speech, especially most people watched it. | ||
I think what they're actually seeing here, and the reason I bring up these polls, Democrats are checked out, okay? | ||
There's only so many lies you can maintain. | ||
I think the reality is Democrats largely didn't watch the State of the Union because they're not Democrats anymore. | ||
That's the reality. | ||
You tell me this. | ||
You've got massive protests. | ||
You've got Democrats waving signs and screaming about egg prices. | ||
You've got coordinated campaigns where 22 Democrat senators go online and post the same video. | ||
And they don't watch Trump's speech? | ||
I thought the Trump bump boosted CNN's ratings. | ||
But Democrats didn't watch Trump's speech? | ||
I don't believe it for a second. | ||
YouGov could have polled it if they did. | ||
And the reason they put it up this way, I think, it's because Democrats are checked out. | ||
And that's where we're at. | ||
Now we can jump over to just the news. | ||
They say Trump's big speech proves to be optics nightmare for Democrats. | ||
I gotta admit, my friends, I've got some stuff to show you that will shock you to your core. | ||
You had a woman on MSNBC. I can't believe I'm saying this. | ||
A 13-year-old kid who dreams of being a cop who survived brain cancer. | ||
They thought he wouldn't make it. | ||
And Trump honored him at the State of the Union. | ||
It's not really State of the Union, but it kind of is. | ||
And it was amazing. | ||
I mean, they clapped and they cheered for him. | ||
His dad lifted him up. | ||
And Trump said, you are going to be sworn in as a Secret Service agent. | ||
That's amazing. | ||
It's honorary. | ||
Little kid's not going to be doing much. | ||
It'll be interesting to see what happens when he's older, when they're like, you're already an agent. | ||
You're here. | ||
He gets a job. | ||
Democrats didn't clap and cheer for this kid. | ||
And after the fact, MSNBC said she hopes he doesn't kill himself. | ||
I kid you not. | ||
I kid you not. | ||
In one of the most vile and disgusting things you could ever imagine, she says he'd hope he doesn't kill himself. | ||
Have these people lost their minds? | ||
Look, MSNBC's ratings are in the gutter. | ||
I understand liberal podcasts are enjoying a big boost right now, but I gotta say, Trump has a mandate. | ||
Regular Americans are sick of the psychotic, histrionic behavior from Democrat personalities and politicians. | ||
You can only push it so far. | ||
The majority of Americans, I think the latest poll that they've been praying around, something like 82% of Americans, or I think it's like 80, Think males should not compete against females. | ||
Democrats, despite that overwhelming majority, have maintained a position that males should, in fact. | ||
Why? | ||
Well, look, man, by all means, if you want to advocate for transgender, biologically male athletes competing in women's sports, you're free to do so, if that's what you care about. | ||
And they'll argue it's the right thing. | ||
Fine. | ||
But understand that means people will quit the party and check out. | ||
So I'll go back. | ||
When I look at the polls that they do, and they're polling Americans, they don't need, when they say, we polled a representative sample of who watched and we found out most of them are Republicans, so Democrats have checked out. | ||
But that tends to be the case. | ||
That's not. | ||
You could do a poll where you could poll Democrats if you wanted to. | ||
I think they're playing games. | ||
I think they realize the Democratic Party is getting obliterated. | ||
I think they've realized that when something like 86% of counties swing to the right. | ||
When Pennsylvania registers more Republicans, Scott Pressler, shout out, Florida and New Jersey. | ||
When Miami turns red, and that happened in the midterm. | ||
It's fair to say the Democratic Party is in free fall, and they will not course correct. | ||
So yeah, big optics nightmare for Democrats. | ||
Let's start with Al Green losing his mind. | ||
Check this out. | ||
Most of you probably saw it. | ||
Let's watch it. | ||
So its single largest one-month gain ever recorded, a 41-point jump. | ||
unidentified
|
Members are directed to uphold and maintain the quorum in the House and to cease any further disruptions. | |
That's your warning. | ||
There's Al Green. | ||
He wants it now. | ||
unidentified
|
Members are engaging and willful in continuing breach of the quorum, and the chair is prepared to direct the sergeant-at-arms to restore order to the joint session. | |
Thank you. | ||
Mr. Green, take your seat. take your seat. | ||
Take your seat, sir. | ||
He won't do it. | ||
unidentified
|
Take your seat. | |
I think he yelled, there's no mandate. | ||
unidentified
|
Did you see that? | |
Did you see that? | ||
J.D. Vance. | ||
Watch J.D. Vance. | ||
There it is. | ||
Out of there. | ||
I think he said, come on. | ||
Put his thumb up. | ||
Get out. | ||
unidentified
|
Finding that members continue to engage in willful and concerted disruption of proper decorum, the chair now directs the sergeant-at-arms to restore order. | |
What a wild thing to watch, man. | ||
Remove this gentleman from the chamber. | ||
There he goes. | ||
He's out. | ||
These people are nuts, man. | ||
They are absolutely nuts. | ||
Al Green comes out, doubles down on impeaching Donald Trump, telling reporters it was worth it. | ||
unidentified
|
The president said he had a mandate. | |
And I was making it clear to the president that he has no mandate. | ||
Yes, he does. | ||
unidentified
|
Medicaid. | |
I have people who are very fearful. | ||
These are poor people. | ||
And they have only Medicaid in their lives when it comes to their health care. | ||
And I want him to know that his budget calls for deep cuts in Medicaid. | ||
No, it doesn't. | ||
unidentified
|
He needs to save Medicaid, protect it. | |
We need to raise the cap on Social Security. | ||
There's a possibility that it's going to be hurt. | ||
And we've got to protect Medicare. | ||
These are the safety net programs that people in my congressional district depend on. | ||
And this president seems to care less about them and more about the number of people that he can remove from the various programs. | ||
No, he's just trying to get reelected. | ||
He's going to go to his district and say Trump wants to take away your Medicaid and Social Security, which Trump has said he's not going to do. | ||
In fact, Trump likely would increase it. | ||
No one's stupid enough to try and make that move politically. | ||
That being said, Trump's not running for re-election. | ||
He's going to go back and say, I stood up to Trump. | ||
And they threw me out because Trump wants to take away your Medicaid. | ||
That's what politics is. | ||
These people do very little. | ||
They don't even show up for floor votes. | ||
Or I should say they don't show up for votes until it's called to the floor and they're forced to and they get real mad about it. | ||
So this guy says there's no mandate. | ||
All right. | ||
Let me see if I can pull up the video on, yes, where do I have this? | ||
Where's the yes, there is a mandate video? | ||
I pulled it up somewhere. | ||
How do I not have, what am I doing over here? | ||
Here we go. | ||
We got it for you, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
We got it for you. | ||
It's only been in office for six weeks. | ||
Seems like six years, doesn't it? | ||
And he's been going around with his cronies touting his so-called landslide and blowout win. | ||
But he won the popular vote by 1.5%, one of the smallest ever, and he won the general election by less than 50%. | ||
So what kind of mandate is this really? | ||
Well, it is a mandate, and I'm going to explain why. | ||
And I don't mind the question, but let me be very clear. | ||
I'm no supporter of Trump. | ||
I'm a supporter of truth and the facts. | ||
And here's the facts. | ||
The man won every swing state. | ||
He increased in terms of his voter turnout in his favor from the standpoint of blacks, Latinos, and young voters. | ||
He increased his numbers in that regard from 2020. 89% of the counties shifted to the right. | ||
That's a mandate. | ||
We can sit up there and play around all we want to. | ||
In 2020, Trump didn't win the popular vote. | ||
He didn't win the electoral college vote. | ||
A matter of fact, the Republicans hadn't won the popular vote, if I remember correctly, since 2004. But they did this year. | ||
So 20 years after they last won the popular vote, they won the popular vote. | ||
They won the electoral college vote. | ||
The mayor won every swing state. | ||
And on top of it all, 89% of the counties shifted. | ||
I don't understand how people can look at that and say, there's no mandate. | ||
There's a mandate. | ||
Well, it's a different definition of a mandate, I guess. | ||
The problem is that if you're the Democratic Party and you lost 49.8% to 48.3%, and you're looking at that 1.5%, that's an excuse for you to say, what we did really wasn't that bad. | ||
We should continue to do that. | ||
No, don't continue to do that. | ||
Find a new strategy. | ||
I hope they do continue to do that. | ||
And I'll give a shout out to our good friend, Corrine Jean-Pierre, who is now unemployed. | ||
I'm kidding. | ||
I don't know if she's actually unemployed. | ||
Maybe she got a job somewhere. | ||
But she's no longer in the White House. | ||
And she said there is no mandate. | ||
Speaking on, she gave a post-election analysis saying that there was no mandate. | ||
Washington Examiner is not going to give us the full story. | ||
But I do want to find the video for you. | ||
I'll pull it up on X because X always has the good videos. | ||
I got to tell you guys. | ||
It used to be that you had to find videos on, like, weird sites because, like, YouTube wouldn't have it. | ||
But now you go on X and you know the video will pop right up. | ||
And what do we got? | ||
Libs of TikTok here. | ||
Corrine Jean-Pierre, where is this? | ||
Are they going to play the video? | ||
Joy has the first question, but you... | ||
When Stephen was leaving... | ||
Here we go. | ||
She said, nice to meet you. | ||
Joy has the first question, but you... | ||
Oh, it's really hard to see, huh? | ||
When Stephen was leaving... | ||
She said, nice to meet you. | ||
Nice to meet you. | ||
I disagree with you. | ||
unidentified
|
Yes, I do. | |
And I was curious. | ||
unidentified
|
I do. | |
On the mandate, on Donald Trump and his administration having a mandate, and we have to be super mindful and careful of this because he does not have a mandate. | ||
And what I mean by that is if you look at the numbers, just look at the facts. | ||
He won with the smallest margin of the popular vote since the 19th century. | ||
There was no coattail, meaning that the House is razor-thin. | ||
And he's on his way in the first 100 days to be the most unpopular president in their first 100 days. | ||
I'm going to pause you right there. | ||
You see, she's cherry-picking. | ||
Donald Trump is enjoying the best aggregate approval rating of his career. | ||
And she said the first hundred days because she knows he's actually doing pretty well. | ||
unidentified
|
Does it matter if he has both houses of Congress in the White House? | |
It does matter because right now we have, what we're seeing in this administration is he's taking a wrecking ball to the government. | ||
And what that means, and so that people really understand as folks are sitting here and watching, he is, there are folks who have been fired from the federal government and now is our water safe? | ||
Mm-hmm. | ||
Right? | ||
Mm-hmm. | ||
Is our food safe? | ||
Right. | ||
Oh, the skies. | ||
unidentified
|
What about the skies? | |
Right. | ||
And the skies, right? | ||
We have to worry about getting on a plane. | ||
Is that going to be safe? | ||
There's going to be a pandemic. | ||
Oh, is there going to be a pandemic? | ||
And not only that. | ||
Oh, that's racist, Kareem Jean-Pierre. | ||
You can't say that you're worried about getting on planes. | ||
That's racist. | ||
Because, you know, all these pilots are DEI, right? | ||
unidentified
|
Their Social Security check? | |
Yeah. | ||
Are you going to get it? | ||
Yeah. | ||
See, none of that actually addresses the issue that Stephen Smith brought up. | ||
There is a mandate. | ||
There is. | ||
Saying we're concerned about the skies or we're concerned about food safety does not mean anything. | ||
The question is, did Donald Trump win the House? | ||
Did he win the Senate? | ||
Did he win the executive branch? | ||
Yes. | ||
And this is an American population that knows full well, knows that you've got a conservative Supreme Court. | ||
So with Democrats screaming all day and night, I tell you this. | ||
That Trump speech, if you take CBS News, YouGov at their word and just say, ignore the fact they couldn't find Democrats. | ||
Let's entertain the plausible scenario that. | ||
They couldn't find the Democrats. | ||
They've done polls where they've been politically representative, and they decided this time around it wouldn't be? | ||
Why? | ||
Shouldn't they give us not just generic speech watchers? | ||
Let me tell you. | ||
If CBS YouGov knows or claims, That it's always skewed in this direction? | ||
Shouldn't they then said, we polled based on political affiliation proportionate to the nation, not just who watched it? | ||
They're basically telling you their polls are worthless. | ||
But let's entertain the real possibility. | ||
It's that there's no Democrats. | ||
It's that the Democratic Party is a weird, fringe, crackpot ideology. | ||
And so when they actually tried looking for it, they were like, we can't find any Democrats. | ||
They're not answering polls. | ||
They're tuned out. | ||
They're checked out. | ||
They quit. | ||
They're gone. | ||
I think that is the reality, my assessment. | ||
And that's largely why Trump won. | ||
I have friends who, you know, this is I'll tell you the crazy thing. | ||
I've got progressive leftist friends that I've known for a long time who told me they're not progressive anymore. | ||
And they thought, oh, I'm not I'm not I'm not like that. | ||
And I'm like, what? | ||
I'm like, bro, I've seen your posts on Facebook. | ||
I know what you're saying. | ||
And they're like, yeah, well, the Democrats. | ||
And I'm like, dang, these Bernie Sanders people that I know, they're like the woke stuff has gone too far and they're scared to be associated with it. | ||
It's not just that people looked at the Democratic Party and said, yo, these people have gone nuts. | ||
I believe a large component is that a lot of people are checked out. | ||
They don't feel represented at all. | ||
While there are certainly some people being like Democrats have gone politically nuts, I do think another component is they're embarrassed to be seen with a loser party of insane ideas. | ||
So you take a look at what we just saw. | ||
And let me play this clip for you, which should it's I'm sorry. | ||
This is shocking and offensive from MSNBC. This is what's her name? | ||
Nicole Wallace, I believe her name is. | ||
Nicole Wallace should apologize for what she said about this 13 year old boy. | ||
This this kid right here, you see him? | ||
During Trump's address to the Joint Section of Congress, this little boy was dressed up like a police officer. | ||
When he was, I believe it was seven years ago, he was diagnosed with brain cancer, 2018. And they said he would die. | ||
And he survived. | ||
And it was his dream to be a cop. | ||
Noble. | ||
He's been made an honorary officer, they said I think 900 times. | ||
All these departments are saying, we're giving you an honorary status. | ||
He can't do anything. | ||
He's a little kid. | ||
And Trump held him up. | ||
He got a Secret Service badge. | ||
He's an honorary agent of the Secret Service. | ||
It's heartwarming. | ||
It's how we inspire younger generations. | ||
To believe in your dreams, to fight, never give up. | ||
And man, it warmed my heart. | ||
To see that proud dad with a big old smile on his face holding up his son. | ||
Man, that must be a proud dad right there. | ||
A grateful dad who almost lost his son. | ||
I could not imagine. | ||
Here's Nicole Walsh from MSNBC. And finding one thing that you let yourself feel. | ||
And I let myself feel joy about DJ, and I hope he's alive for another, you know, 95 years, right? | ||
And I hope he lives... | ||
And the life he wants to live. | ||
He wants to be a cop. | ||
He knows what he wants to do. | ||
And maybe when you have childhood cancer, that crystallizes for you. | ||
And I hope he has a long life as a law enforcement officer. | ||
But I hope he never has to defend the United States Capitol against Donald Trump's supporters. | ||
And if he does, I hope he isn't one of the six who loses his life to suicide. | ||
And I hope he isn't one who has to testify against the people who carried out acts of seditious conspiracy and then lived to see Donald Trump pardon those people. | ||
Scumbag. | ||
Holy crap, man. | ||
There is some degree of decorum we're supposed to have in this country. | ||
But this evil witch's psychotic histrionics cannot just for one second calm down and let a child celebrate a moment. | ||
These people are unhinged. | ||
Absolutely insane. | ||
They cannot. | ||
They cannot stop. | ||
They won't stop. | ||
And this is why I'm telling you. | ||
They're in collapse. | ||
I gotta give a shout-out to Anna Kasparian for one of the best tweets. | ||
You know, she's come around, huh? | ||
Based. | ||
Excellent tweet, Anna. | ||
Ken Klippenstein said congressional Democrats expressing opposition to Trump by holding up little signs that say things like, Musk steals and false. | ||
unidentified
|
False? | |
I don't even know what you're referring to. | ||
Here's Rashida Tlaib with a little whiteboard saying, that's a lie. | ||
Save Medicaid. | ||
Musk steals. | ||
Okay, first of all, the Republicans have never said that they're going to cut Medicaid. | ||
To be fair, it's fine to be concerned that cuts may hit Medicaid and Social Security. | ||
But they're acting like, and they say this all the time, that Trump is going to do it and Republicans are going to do it. | ||
By all means, if they came out and said, I'll tell you what I think is fair. | ||
I'll tell you from my point of view. | ||
The Doge team is going into government agencies and they are looking for ways to cut spending. | ||
And our concern here is one of two things. | ||
First, you know, I could save the Democratic Party, I'm telling you, because here's how I'd do it. | ||
I think Elon Musk is a smart guy. | ||
I think he's done tremendous things. | ||
Clearly, he's helped Donald Trump massively. | ||
And so you've got to respect that. | ||
Respect doesn't mean like. | ||
You respect the power behind the moves that he's making. | ||
Don't underestimate these people. | ||
Now, Doge is going in and they're cutting government spending. | ||
Who disagrees, right? | ||
On the surface, We are all grateful that wasteful spending is being cut because we want that money to go towards Social Security. | ||
Imagine if we could make sure our elderly citizens and those who are dependent on Medicare and Social Security were getting more money. | ||
The concern is there have been instances, and this is true, where cuts have been made because they did a broad brushstroke, and then they realized they made a mistake and had to turn around and correct that. | ||
That's that's the first fear. | ||
That's the reasonable fear that when it comes to people, Social Security and Medicaid, there may be an inadvertent broad brushstroke that interrupts, drops or cuts or causes confusion among those who are in desperate need of Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security. | ||
I think that's a legitimate fear. | ||
Now, the second fear would be that while the Republicans are saying they don't want to cut it, they end up cutting it anyway. | ||
That being said. | ||
We're going to make sure we keep pressure on this government so they do not cut these programs people so desperately need. | ||
And I'll tell you this personally, and I mean this sincerely. | ||
I actually believe this. | ||
I'm not a big fan of a system, the Social Security system. | ||
I believe the families should be taking care of their parents. | ||
I think that family structure is important. | ||
When you're a baby, your parents take care of you and change your diapers. | ||
You get older, you have a kid, the family works together, and the grandparents help. | ||
And then when your parents are getting old, you change their diapers. | ||
You probably don't have to for a long time. | ||
For the most part, even if they are incontinent or whatever, they can change their own diapers. | ||
They're adults. | ||
But the kids then take care of their parents in their senescence. | ||
That's what we do. | ||
And we built this system where we just give money to people and forget about them. | ||
I think it's disgusting. | ||
But I think those fears are fine to say. | ||
The problem is they don't articulate these things. | ||
The Democrats don't know how to come out and make a legitimate argument as to what their fears really are in a reasonable way that can be attractive to Americans to actually address the problems. | ||
So I'll tell you this. | ||
If there actually was a left, it is where you and I are when we say things like, I don't believe they're going to cut Medicaid and Social Security, but let's make sure we keep pressure on Trump so that they don't. | ||
It's that simple. | ||
If we do not. | ||
As people who voted for Trump, maintain that pressure. | ||
It won't happen. | ||
Take a look at, there was that guy who got appointed to the DEA in Florida. | ||
I think it was DEA, right? | ||
And there was a massive campaign saying, this guy shut down a church and arrested a pastor. | ||
Don't hire him. | ||
So Trump said, you're out. | ||
That's what I'm talking about. | ||
The opposition exists, and it exists amongst people who voted for Donald Trump and are going to make sure they hold him to his word. | ||
So we want the Epstein files. | ||
And we're pissed about it. | ||
And the pressure is on. | ||
When the Democrats come out, false. | ||
It just says false. | ||
The science is false. | ||
I have no idea what you're saying. | ||
We say that we want to protect women. | ||
And so Trump says, you've got the family of Lake and Riley, and we're making sure that we're going to keep out these violent criminals, the cartels, the evil gang members, the rapists. | ||
Democrats don't care. | ||
They say, here's a young woman, Trump, a young woman who is partially paralyzed. | ||
After getting spiked in the face with a volleyball by a male player. | ||
She's playing on a volleyball team. | ||
The dude, the male player, jumped. | ||
Bam! | ||
The volleyball hit her in the face. | ||
She screams. | ||
I think it busted her nose and partially paralyzed her from the shock to her neck. | ||
I think she's largely okay now, but it ended her career. | ||
Democrats don't care. | ||
And so I don't see the Democratic Party as the true opposition to the Republicans. | ||
I don't. | ||
What I see is, You've got the Ben Shapiro's and the Tim Poole's. | ||
Maybe not me, but you get the point. | ||
Maybe Jimmy Doors. | ||
You've got people. | ||
I'd say I'm probably more moderate. | ||
Jimmy's more of a leftist. | ||
But Jimmy's not woke and he's not establishment. | ||
So Jimmy is a guy who's in favor of universal health care. | ||
Clearly, as with Ben Shapiro, probably has choice words for him. | ||
But they find themselves strangely both being called the right, which makes no sense. | ||
Because I think the truth is Trump's opposition. | ||
Supports him. | ||
And these Democrats are blind blanket zealots. | ||
They don't represent any real ideology. | ||
They don't represent any real opposition. | ||
There's no political philosophy here. | ||
They cheered only for Ukraine. | ||
Let's pull it up. | ||
Let's see what we got here. | ||
I tweeted this last night. | ||
The only time Democrats clap is for a foreign country. | ||
Not for cutting waste. | ||
Not for operating terrorists. | ||
Not for protecting women. | ||
Just Ukraine. | ||
It's a cult. | ||
Even balancing the budget. | ||
Trump said we're going to balance the budget. | ||
No cheers to the Democrats. | ||
None. | ||
That to me is nuts. | ||
Autism Capital says, Trump, the United States has sent hundreds of billions of dollars to support Ukraine's defense with no security, no anything. | ||
Looks at Democrats. | ||
Do you want to keep this going for another five years? | ||
Warren says yes. | ||
Take a look at this clip. | ||
No end in sight. | ||
The United States has sent hundreds of billions of dollars to support Ukraine's defense. | ||
With no security. | ||
There it is. | ||
unidentified
|
The Democrats all start clapping. | |
And he paused. | ||
They keep going. | ||
Do you want to keep it going for another five years? | ||
Yeah, you would say Pocahontas says yes. | ||
One of the most outrageous addresses, states, whatever you want to call it, ever. | ||
And the craziest I have ever seen. | ||
Can we just stress that? | ||
I ask you, the American people who are watching this, do you know anybody? | ||
I mean, I know people who are like this. | ||
For what purpose are we defending Ukraine? | ||
It's because it's a cult. | ||
I've got to be honest. | ||
I've had conversations with... | ||
Look, there are default liberals and then there are cult members. | ||
There are moderates, conservatives, and then there are Trump cult members. | ||
It's real. | ||
The problem is the left cult says everyone on the right is in a Trump cult. | ||
That ain't true. | ||
I rag on Trump all the time about TikTok in particular. | ||
Trump deserves criticism because we had to keep him in line because he's a man of his word and he needs to know how we feel about things that works. | ||
I, along with the moderates, the post-liberals, and the conservatives, we don't get along on everything. | ||
We don't. | ||
A lot of people are concerned about RFK Jr.'s abortion stance and environmental stance. | ||
But we form a coalition on the matters we want to win. | ||
That's the way it should be. | ||
So I take a look at these Democrats. | ||
I got friends who are progressive. | ||
I was having a conversation with a liberal friend. | ||
But you got to understand, default liberals, we call them. | ||
That was Andrew Breitbart called them, that default liberals. | ||
They are people who aren't really into politics and they just align liberal because they don't pay attention and they believe whatever the media tells them. | ||
Not so much that they just blindly believe things, but they passively hear something. | ||
They assume it's true. | ||
They don't really look into it. | ||
So I was talking to some friends who I would call default liberal. | ||
And they're just like, we got to protect Ukraine. | ||
Russia just does whatever they want. | ||
And I was like, why? | ||
Are we going to go protect Sudan next? | ||
Are we going to go protect Pakistan and get involved in Pakistan, India? | ||
Are we going to go invade Georgia or Chechnya? | ||
No. | ||
So why Ukraine? | ||
No answer. | ||
Because there isn't one. | ||
Now, they like to say, like, the Budapest Accords. | ||
I'm sorry, the Budapest Memorandum, which was never approved by Congress. | ||
And I'll give you this analogy. | ||
My friends, if any one of your liberal aunts, because that's all it ever is, your aunt, your only your aunt. | ||
I'm kidding. | ||
Anyone you ever know says, we signed an agreement or we had an agreement that we would defend Ukraine if they gave up their nuclear weapons. | ||
And they did. | ||
Russia invaded. | ||
We must defend them. | ||
I say, okay, let's try this. | ||
The analogy I gave last night, for those that missed it. | ||
Let's say there is a cliff overlooking this big, beautiful lake. | ||
Big, beautiful lake. | ||
It's a 30-foot drop. | ||
Not the biggest cliff dive anyone's ever done. | ||
Scary, but easily doable. | ||
And you say, I make this promise to all of you. | ||
That if bad people ever do bad thing. | ||
I am going to jump from this cliff into that lake. | ||
Right? | ||
Now you may be saying, Tim, what does a lake have to do with a war or a conflict? | ||
Oh, it's really simple. | ||
30 years later, let's look at it a couple different ways. | ||
You're now 60 years old. | ||
Let's say you were 30 when you made the promise. | ||
And they're like, okay, the bad people are doing the thing you promised. | ||
Jump! | ||
And you're like, I'm 60 years old. | ||
I know 60 years old don't sound like that. | ||
I'm just kidding. | ||
But you're like, I'm an old man. | ||
I can't make that jump anymore. | ||
A promise made 30 years ago is no good 30 years later. | ||
Okay, you may be saying, Tim, that doesn't work because we have young fighters and resources to do. | ||
Okay, let's try this one. | ||
It's 30 years later, and you said, if at any point a bad person ever does anything bad, the next person physically capable who is part of our lifeguard, whatever, will jump in. | ||
30 years later, the lake is completely dried, and it's just jagged rocks down below. | ||
And you say, I'm not jumping into that. | ||
But you promised you would. | ||
Yeah, but that was when it was water. | ||
Now it's jagged rocks. | ||
Okay? | ||
The circumstances have changed substantially. | ||
A 30-year-old promise means nothing, especially considering it was never formalized by Congress. | ||
Not to mention, there was also a promise made by the U.S. that should East Germany fall and reunite with West Germany, NATO would not expand one inch to the east. | ||
Instead, NATO expanded into Estonia, Latvia, now Finland. | ||
On the border of Russia in numerous areas to the point where Ukraine was actually on the verge of joining the EU, the Schengen Zone, abandoning the Russian Trade Federation. | ||
Why is that a bad thing? | ||
Because Russia needs the Black Sea to transport fuel and trade goods through the Bosphorus Canal into the Mediterranean, through the Suez Canal into the Indian Ocean. | ||
And if they lose access to Sevastopol, which is Crimea, which is Ukraine, then their economy is done. | ||
It's done. | ||
60-70% reduction collapse overnight. | ||
So this was always going to be the outcome if NATO tried expanding into Ukraine. | ||
And here we are. | ||
I am not defending Putin. | ||
He's a scumbag. | ||
He's a despot. | ||
He shouldn't remain in power the way he does. | ||
And the invasion was wrong. | ||
You lose. | ||
Instead, he resorted to hot conflict. | ||
But I got to be honest, it's still none of our business. | ||
So I digress. | ||
Not to relitigate the history of Ukraine. | ||
Oh boy, it's getting me riled up. | ||
When they come to you and say, we have a 30-year-old promise to defend Ukraine. | ||
Oh, 30 years, huh? | ||
Is it possible that things have changed so substantially that it would be nigh impossible for us to maintain this position? | ||
As Trump pointed out, another five years? | ||
It's an unwinnable war. | ||
Either we go direct conflict, NATO v. | ||
Russia, when then Russia pulls in China, in Iran, World War III, baby, or we say Ukraine is not a NATO ally, not in the EU, and we have no business. | ||
Pushing hundreds of billions of dollars into a conflict for which we benefit nothing. | ||
NATO does not need to keep expanding the way it does, and we don't need to shut Russia out from their trade routes. | ||
We want to. | ||
The American military industrial complex wants to do that. | ||
Sure. | ||
I mean, let's be real. | ||
We destroy Russia's economy, make them a vassal state, and we expand global influence. | ||
There is only one argument I accept on Ukraine. | ||
One. | ||
If I was talking to a Democrat and they said, if we don't stop Putin and Ukraine, he'll invade Poland, I'll say that's stupid because he's already got access to Belarus, their allies, and Belarus borders Lithuania and Poland, and they've already got Russian troops in it and nuclear weapons, so he's already at the border of Poland. | ||
Not to mention, Kaliningrad is north of Poland and southwest of Lithuania, meaning Russia has direct land access to both of these countries, and they're heavily militarized. | ||
They could slice a land bridge through Lithuania into Belarus and create a corridor where they could cause lots of problems. | ||
But I digress. | ||
There's only one argument I accept. | ||
If a Democrat said to me, it's because we want to expand Western NATO control militaristically for global dominion. | ||
I'd say, oh, that I believe you're telling the truth on. | ||
I'm not for that. | ||
The reason why I say I accept it is because all the arguments made about Ukraine make literally no sense. | ||
Now, when you see this video, as I've shown you of Trump. | ||
Amazing. | ||
Saying you want to go for another five years? | ||
Another five years? | ||
The Democrats don't know why they support Ukraine. | ||
They do it because they hate Trump. | ||
It makes literally no sense. | ||
There are militaristic reasons why we're involved in Ukraine, largely energy. | ||
Cut off Russia from their main trade route into the Mediterranean, destroy their economy, force them to sell gas at discount prices to Europe, allowing Europe to grow and expand their economy, and then destroy Syria, build the Qatar Turkey pipeline, increase energy flow into Europe. | ||
Oh, baby! | ||
The European economic bloc will flourish. | ||
Flying cars, skyscrapers, you name it. | ||
Kidding, but something like that, I guess. | ||
It's largely why we're there. | ||
It's to expand global dominion. | ||
It is to create, you know, I don't want to call it a one-world government, but the Western bloc wants unipolar dominion. | ||
We don't want a world, and this is, I agree with this one. | ||
We don't want a unipolar, meaning a single global power in China. | ||
That's scary. | ||
A multipolar world can be dangerous. | ||
That's what it was like during the Cold War. | ||
But it literally wasn't the end of the world. | ||
Now, there's fears. | ||
It could be. | ||
A lot of scary moments in the Cold War. | ||
There was one story where a false alarm was received on a Russian nuclear sub. | ||
And protocol said fire retaliatory nukes. | ||
And I don't know the full story. | ||
I'm probably flubbing it. | ||
But there was like one officer was like, no, we won't do it. | ||
And then they averted a serious crisis. | ||
The false alarm could have resulted in. | ||
Russia and Soviet Union starting a nuclear war. | ||
I don't know if you guys have ever seen the film The Sum of All Fears. | ||
It's a good one. | ||
It's a good one. | ||
It is. | ||
It's old. | ||
Ben Affleck, Morgan Freeman, and a bunch of other people are in it. | ||
Basically what happens is a terrorist detonates a nuke in Baltimore. | ||
I'm sorry I'm spoiling a 23-year-old movie for you. | ||
Detonates a nuke in Baltimore, and the Russians are framed for it. | ||
And so the U.S. government begins preparing retaliatory strikes. | ||
Russia sees America enter a war footing with bombers being dispatched and enters a war footing as well, creating the verge of nuclear annihilation. | ||
We don't want any of that. | ||
And it is so easy for it to happen. | ||
We are sitting on a dry bed, a dry forest bed of tinder. | ||
And all it takes is a single flicked cigarette. | ||
The smallest of actions to create a massive global wildfire. | ||
With Ukraine and Russia, and Russia stating they would use nuclear weapons in the event they face an existential threat. | ||
Ukraine is that tinderbed. | ||
And if the U.S. and NATO send in troops to try and fight Russia, and Russia says, I'm not stopping, it escalates. | ||
And nuclear weapons are a real possibility. | ||
See, people seem to think that nuclear weapons means ICBMs. | ||
No, it can start with nuclear artillery. | ||
Strategic, tactical nuclear weapons. | ||
Nuclear artillery. | ||
This basically means nuclear warheads that are fitted to howitzers or things of that nature, which are lower yield but can be massively devastating and can scar the earth. | ||
Think about it. | ||
If it is true that Russia requires the Black Sea for a large portion of their trade and NATO successfully cuts them off from it, Now, don't get me wrong, Russian territory is on the Black Sea, not just Crimea, but this would mean Russia would have to build a massive, like, multi-hundred-million-dollar port and relocate its military base. | ||
So it's not completely existential. | ||
But if Russia views this as a no-go, we are not going to abandon our naval base in Sevastopol, then you're basically threatening nuclear war when you push this. | ||
I certainly hope we don't get there, but it seems like Democrats are pushing everything they can. | ||
Take a look at this beautiful tweet from End Wokeness. | ||
Democrats kneeled, eulogized, and cried for a violent criminal who died during an arrest. | ||
George Floyd. | ||
They refused to stand for Lake and Riley. | ||
Look, they hate this country. | ||
They don't care about America. | ||
They are zealous cultists. | ||
They do not have a unifying political ideology. | ||
That's why they simultaneously say protect women, but then won't stand for a murdered woman. | ||
They're like, we gotta protect women. | ||
Not in sports and not from rapists. | ||
Then what are you talking about? | ||
Honestly, I got no idea. | ||
Because the ideology isn't there. | ||
So here we go, my friends. | ||
Let's see. | ||
We already played that one. | ||
We got that one. | ||
Alyssa Slotkin responded. | ||
We'll play this clip. | ||
This is her response in this viral clip. | ||
She says this. | ||
unidentified
|
While we're on the subject of Elon Musk, is there anyone in America who is comfortable with him and his gang of 20-year-olds using their own computer servers to poke through your tax returns, your health information, and your bank accounts? | |
No oversight, no protections against cyber attack, no guardrails on what they do with your private data. | ||
It's all not true. | ||
unidentified
|
We need a more efficient government. | |
You want to cut waste? | ||
I'll help you do it. | ||
But change doesn't need to be chaos. | ||
Change doesn't need to be chaos. | ||
I would just like to point this out to the Democrats and Alyssa Slotkin in her response. | ||
Can any one of you name the individuals who were previously going through our tax records and bank accounts and health records? | ||
I'll wait. | ||
You can't. | ||
So when other government employees, they are, these 20-year-olds, are going through the information looking for fraud or whatever, and they're not really going through your tax returns, mind you. | ||
Why should I care? | ||
When the bureaucratic system, like literally right now, the NSA is spying on me. | ||
I'm sure there's FBI agents watching this live stream. | ||
I guarantee it. | ||
Some of them are probably fans hanging out with Cash Patel, enjoying a nice morning scotch. | ||
It's a little early for that, boys. | ||
I'm kidding, by the way. | ||
Yeah, we're spying on all the time. | ||
They're spying on my text. | ||
They're spying on your browser history, my browser history. | ||
Boy, they're learning a lot if they're watching mine because it's all news articles. | ||
It's all it is. | ||
I live, eat, and breathe the news. | ||
The only thing I'm ever reading. | ||
And they're spying. | ||
And you want to come to me and say that Elon Musk has other government employees doing the same thing and I'm supposed to be mad about it? | ||
I ain't going to be mad about it. | ||
But I'll tell you this. | ||
Democrats is unfavorable. | ||
Now, don't get me wrong. | ||
I pulled this up. | ||
And I hate to exclude that Republicans are also unfavorable. | ||
But I think, largely, the Democratic Party is burnt out. | ||
Elon Musk tweeted, After tonight, I am increasingly convinced that we can get to 60 senators. | ||
And I agree with him. | ||
I really do. | ||
I believe that he is correct in that Lakin Riley, her family, was there at the State of the Union. | ||
They wouldn't clap. | ||
A 13-year-old boy who survived brain cancer. | ||
They wouldn't clap. | ||
To be fair, they did clap sporadically. | ||
You know, I saw I was with Warren clapping for some things, but it's very calm and just very dispassionate. | ||
What I mean to say is the Democrats as a whole never stood and clapped loudly for anything other than giving hundreds of billions of dollars to Ukraine. | ||
So I give you this, my friends. | ||
Should we, I don't know, protect our children, fund Medicaid, and stop giving hundreds of billions to Ukraine? | ||
How can Democrats simultaneously say, save Medicaid, but then advocate we give hundreds of billions of dollars away? | ||
I give this unto you, everyone. | ||
Here's my proposal to all of those who are dependent upon Medicaid and Social Security and other benefits. | ||
I propose we take all of the allocated funds for Ukraine and divvy that up amongst all of you. | ||
So I know it's not that much money. | ||
I think it might be, what we'll be looking at, $100 a person? | ||
Just one time? | ||
How'd you like $100? | ||
Sounds pretty good, right? | ||
Actually, no, it might be like $200. | ||
So, oh, actually, no, I'm way off. | ||
I'm way off. | ||
I'm doing the total American population. | ||
How many people get Social Security in the U.S.? Let's do the numbers. | ||
We'll give you the hard numbers. | ||
As of 2024, 67 million people. | ||
Okay, let's estimate, Trump says, upwards of 350 billion spent. | ||
And that's not direct aid to Ukraine, right? | ||
I think the total direct aid is around like 140 billion. | ||
But then there's an estimated additional, you know, 200 billion in ancillary spending meant to benefit Ukraine. | ||
What that means is money directly sent to Ukraine or spent on things for Ukraine versus things on European security defense because of Ukraine. | ||
So let's just say Trump's number is correct. | ||
350 billion. | ||
$267 million. | ||
And let's see what we get. | ||
How much money would you receive? | ||
I think it's going to be, what, $400? | ||
Oh my, I was way off. | ||
It's $5,000! | ||
Man, my math was bad. | ||
I was off by a factor of 10. Social Security recipients. | ||
How about this? | ||
Instead of spending $350 billion on Ukraine, we'll give each of you $5,000. | ||
How about that? | ||
How about we do, I don't know, let's call it $420 a month. | ||
It's a good number. | ||
$420 a month additional to all Social Security recipients instead of funding Ukraine. | ||
Who's going to disagree? | ||
I believe that Trump should actually propose that. | ||
Now he's talked about the Doge dividend where they're talking about giving Americans a portion of all the money saved by Doge as a refund, which is based. | ||
Trump just needs to come out during the midterms and say, all of that money we saved by not funding this war in Ukraine, we are going to give to Social Security recipients. | ||
If you have a parent who requires Social Security, no longer will you get worried phone calls from them saying they can't make their bills and they need help. | ||
If you are a recipient yourself, no longer will you be worried you're not going to meet your budget. | ||
And you're not going to be able to afford your groceries or rent. | ||
No longer will you have to choose between eating garbage, fast, cheap food from processed nasty garbage or trying to be healthy. | ||
We're going to get you an extra $420 a month by gutting the wasteful spending to Ukraine. | ||
The American people deserve that money first and foremost. | ||
I'd like to see the response from Democrats to that one. | ||

If you're wondering how to get involved, go to Timcast dot com. | ||
Click join us. | ||
Get in the discord server. | ||
Why? | ||
Twenty thousand plus individuals politically active every day, having debates, conversations, starting new podcasts, programming video games, making art, making movies, making shows. | ||
And all you have to do is say, yo, what up? | ||
I'm new. | ||
What's going on? | ||
And you chat and you engage and you will meet people and you will no longer be passive. | ||
You will be active. | ||
And if we are active, if we are active, we win in 2026. We win in 2028. Let's grab some of your super chats and rumble rants, my friends. | ||
See what we got going on over here. | ||
We've got the deplorable Miss Drake saying all we have in common with Democrats is currency. | ||
Yikes. | ||
Well, to be fair, we all drink water. | ||
That was always true. | ||
Let's go. | ||
Cade Daniels Music over on Rumble says, if you watch the right side broadcast Rumble channel of Trump's speech last night, you can see Warren visibly shaking when Trump calls her Pocahontas. | ||
She looked like she's about to have a seizure. | ||
Heavens. | ||
Heavens. | ||
What an offensive thing to say. | ||
The Quiet Part Podcast, originating on the Timcast Discord server, by the way, says, Thanks for the shoutouts, Tim. | ||
They're, in fact, very generous. | ||
I do, however, have a challenge to issue. | ||
Do as you ask and share shows like The Quiet Part Pod and Romination. | ||
Help us little guys grow. | ||
That's why I shout you guys out all the time. | ||
Word of mouth is literally the way to do it. | ||
I got to be honest. | ||
X posts are almost no conversion. | ||
None. | ||
And so direct shoutouts are usually the most powerful way. | ||
So you may notice, often. | ||
I will shout out the Quiet Part podcast, as well as the Roman Nation podcast. | ||
We have actually had the Roman Nation hosts on Timcast IRL. For those that are not familiar, these two podcasts started in our Discord community. | ||
People got together. | ||
They started talking. | ||
You can use the live chat function and actually launch the show. | ||
You can talk to the people on the Discord, and there are people actively hanging out every day to listen and engage with you. | ||
And kick off your new show. | ||
Now, I don't think everyone just doing podcasts is the way to go, but you do have a community trying to strive and build and engage. | ||
So let's say you're working on a new piece of art, a comic book. | ||
The community is there and they're supporting everybody. | ||
And we are trying to build something that networks out and creates a culture and maintains merit, moral tradition, etc. | ||
unidentified
|
All right. | |
We say we got Jack Quauss. | ||
How do you say that? | ||
Doctors called in to check Tommy Robinson in prison after 100 plus days in confinement. | ||
Interesting. | ||
There's a video link. | ||
Interesting. | ||
We'll have to take a look. | ||
Take a look. | ||
Let's go. | ||
Rob says, Tim, I wanted to touch on something you said last night about the GLP-1 injections. | ||
It isn't always laziness or discipline. | ||
My wife was put on one to help manage her PCOS symptoms, which will help her be able to have a child. | ||
I have never criticized GLP-1. | ||
For legitimate reasons. | ||
I have outright said some people are diabetic. | ||
That's why they were prescribed Ozempic. | ||
Some people have other issues that they require medication. | ||
My point is it's being taken recreationally, as it were. | ||
Being morbidly obese is not a disease. | ||
I mean, maybe it's legally or literally a disease, whatever. | ||
My point is, for most people, you're eating poorly and you are not exercising. | ||
I really don't get it. | ||
I got to be honest. | ||
Guys. | ||
If you're a man out there and you don't exercise, you are missing out on... | ||
I don't know how to describe it. | ||
It's euphoric. | ||
What do they call it? | ||
Runner's high. | ||
When you start exercising and you push your muscles to the limits, it feels insanely good. | ||
You get a burst of energy. | ||
It feels like electricity is surging through you. | ||
A smile on your face. | ||
Every part of your body hurts in the greatest way imaginable. | ||
You're sore. | ||
You can barely walk. | ||
And you feel like a million bucks. | ||
So, you know, for women, right. | ||
I'm not going to speak for ladies. | ||
I ain't a lady. | ||
But I can say this too. | ||
For humans in general, the big issue usually is you're eating poorly and not exercising. | ||
Drink more water. | ||
Check your sleep. | ||
Sleep is huge. | ||
People don't know this. | ||
Some people are like, I eat right. | ||
I exercise and I'm not losing weight. | ||
How's your sleep? | ||
And then some people even get this. | ||
They go, I sleep eight hours a night. | ||
Can't figure it out. | ||
Sleep trackers. | ||
So I've been monitoring my sleep. | ||
I'll tell you this. | ||
Last night, I got bad REM sleep. | ||
You know what's really fascinating is I'm doing science here. | ||
So I've been using this headband called Sleep Sanity. | ||
It's really cool. | ||
They don't sponsor the show, but I'm a big fan. | ||
And it's got Bluetooth headphones and a visor that dims and like an orange light stimulates melatonin. | ||
Man, it's brilliant. | ||
And in the morning, it like wakes you up. | ||
I think it turns blue. | ||
But what I did was... | ||
When you go to sleep, it turns orange and then plays sound. | ||
But it only does it for like 20 minutes. | ||
And so for me, I'm like, no, I want the white noise. | ||
They say there's different kinds of noise, like green noise or whatever. | ||
I want noise all night. | ||
So when I was using the headband, I was getting about an hour and a half of deep sleep, which they say is good, but I'm not a fan. | ||
Deep sleep is when your muscles regenerate, your body produces human growth hormone and testosterone. | ||
And so if you want... | ||
Better testosterone and HGH, naturally occurring, not weird supplemental stuff. | ||
You need deep sleep, especially if you're working out. | ||
My REM sleep, always perfect. | ||
And so what I've been doing is putting on nature sounds, like usually thunderstorms. | ||
I love me a thunderstorm. | ||
It is the coziest sound ever when you're going to bed and it's a thunderstorm. | ||
I love it. | ||
I don't know why. | ||
Humans love it, right? | ||
It's beautiful. | ||
My deep sleep is now at two hours. | ||
So last night I got two hours. | ||
I feel like I could punch a bear. | ||
I often feel like that, but not that I'd be successful. | ||
Like, I feel great. | ||
But I didn't get a lot of REM sleep, and my head kind of hurts. | ||
And I'm like, there it is, right? | ||
You need the deep sleep for the muscles, the REM sleep for the brain. | ||
So you got to get that balance. | ||
I'm working on it. | ||
Maybe I do half the night with thunderstorm sounds, and I turn them off or whatever, and just get REM sleep the rest of the night. | ||
But I'll tell you this, in response to that GLP-1 stuff, it really is not so simple. | ||
I can't stand people like calories and calories out. | ||
I'm like, ain't no way, dude. | ||
No way. | ||
Because if you're not getting proper sleep and hydration, Then you can't even exercise. | ||
And if you're not getting proper sleep, your body's not metabolizing properly. | ||
It is not so simple. | ||
There is a balance and everybody is different. | ||
Let's grab one more Super Chat here. | ||
Halo News says, Tim, the Supreme Court just blocked Trump's attempt to cancel $2 billion in USAID spending. | ||
I saw that. | ||
I got it pulled up. | ||
We didn't get to it, though. | ||
Cameron Wright says, me and my wife are having our fifth child and our first son, keeping it based here in Texas. | ||
Yeah, I got to tell you. | ||
I recently had my first child. | ||
Don't wait. | ||
Don't wait. | ||
I'm an old man, right? | ||
I'm an old dad. | ||
I'm 38. I'm going to be 39 in four days this Sunday. | ||
But, you know, some people say that when you're a younger dad, there's a fear of FOMO in that, you know, guys, they want to conquer the world. | ||
They want to do so much. | ||
And then once a kid enters the fray, you now have to allocate more time. | ||
I don't think that's 100% true, but obviously a child does take time and energy. | ||
I actually think for those that are probably motivated, having a child will make you more powerful than you could possibly imagine. | ||
The people that I know that have had kids, 90%, 90, not all of them obviously, the dudes, ended up becoming substantially better versions of themselves after having kids. | ||
I know there's a couple famous individuals I won't name, and they were poor people. | ||
They had a kid at a relatively young age and then immediately started pushing themselves to the limit for their kid and then became very, very wealthy and famous. | ||
And it was for their kid. | ||
Not everybody's like that, but most of the people I know who have kids end up going from, like, I would describe as street urchin partiers to family people, meaning they stopped partying, they stopped drinking, they got jobs, and they became responsible adults because they had to for their children, and that's success. | ||
Plus, babies are magic. | ||
They're wonderful little things. | ||
And then they grow up, and maybe they'll get into Hollywood, and then you can have a rich child. | ||
Good luck! | ||
I'm kidding. | ||
Keep your kids away from Hollywood. | ||
All right, everybody, smash that like button. | ||
Let's see some more like smashes. | ||
And I really do appreciate everybody subscribing and sharing the show. | ||
Of course, we are live Monday through Thursday at 10 a.m., so don't miss it. | ||
We will have other independent segments, unique clips throughout the day. | ||
I'll be recording new segments as soon as I end the live show. | ||
And then we're back tonight at 8pm at youtube.com slash timcast.irl. | ||
But I beseech thee, my friends, if you really do like the show, we're not like big networks like CNN or Fox or MSNBC, who somehow can dump tens of millions of dollars into talentless hosts. | ||
Well, Fox is okay. | ||
Some of them are not so good. | ||
But Lawrence Jones, Greg Gutfeld, I'm a big fan. | ||
Those guys are fantastic. | ||
And Jesse Waters is also fantastic. | ||
Who else do they have? | ||
I mean, those are basically the personalities I really do see Peter and Steve. | ||
I can both. | ||
OK, anyway, I digress. | ||
Fox is OK. But CNN, man, we don't we don't have the money to dump and throw around. | ||
And we are looking at billboard campaigns like big outdoor ads in major cities to advertise the show. | ||
But really, for us here and largely for me, the only way we succeed and continue is two things. | ||
You guys become, well, I should say three things. | ||
There's the membership side, which is watch our uncensored premium content on Rumble Premium. | ||
We have teamed up with Rumble for the network effect because we need to build these neurons, as it were, connecting the dots between communities. | ||
So Rumble's got Russell Brand, Dr. Disrespect, Dave Rubin. | ||
You've got Steven Crowder. | ||
And we all have these little islands of audiences, and so teaming up with Rumble, we can start to connect them. | ||
Now, Crowder's audience is watching more of my content, which is good for me, and the Timcast audience is watching more of Crowder, which is good for him. | ||
We need to network, which is the same reason we also have the Timcast Discord server. | ||
But outside of joining and becoming members, sharing is caring. | ||
And I'll say it one more time. | ||
Whenever you watch, if you really do like the show and you think I do a good job and you appreciate it, consider sharing. | ||
Grab the URL, post it wherever you can. | ||
All right, everybody. | ||
We'll be back up in an hour with another recorded segment, so check that one out. | ||
We got some Andrew Tate news. | ||
They're coming after him. | ||
Florida is saying, lock him up, and it's created a big controversy. | ||
We'll see how things go. | ||
Smash that like button. | ||
Again, share the show. |
