	All right, people.
	I'm ordinarily not appearing in the beginning of videos, but I'm giving the fair use warning to any copyright trolls at 60 Minutes.
	This will be fair use par excellence.
	I've got to show you this right now.
	Over the top, like.
	The Democrats are a party of pedophiles.
	I would definitely say so.
	They support grooming children.
	They are not pedophiles.
	Why would you say that?
	This is the argument tactic called, come on!
	It's the Peter Griffin argument.
	Come on!
	They're not.
	Why would you say that?
	Because they are.
	No, they're not.
	Come on!
	But it gets better.
	Democrats support, even Joe Biden, the president himself, supports children being sexualized and having transgender surgeries.
	Sexualizing children is what pedophiles do to children.
	Okay.
	That's also called the Homer Simpson rebuttal.
	You gotta see that face.
	If this does not become a meme, I have failed in my attempt to make a meme.
	As in having transgender surgeries, sexualizing children is what pedophiles do to children.
	Wow.
	Okay.
	I mean, now that I think about it, that oddly enough looks like that famous meme that they made of Trump.
	Wow.
	Okay.
	Great.
	First of all, was it a debate, Leslie, or was it a question?
	Did you not like the answer to that question and that's the best rebuttal that you had?
	Well, glorious.
	Let me move my head to the side here.
	No, not that way.
	This way.
	Just so everybody doesn't make any phallus jokes.
	This is a piece of driftwood that I got at a river.
	And so that everybody can make the phallus jokes.
	I did get it because it looked like a phallus.
	But it's also a beautiful piece of driftwood.
	Because viva in my spirituality and my zen-ness is...
	I'm into zen.
	Now, some of you are asking, why are we not talking about Trump?
	We are living in the day when they are going...
	I don't know if they're going to do a perp walk.
	I don't know if he's going to be in cuffs.
	But we're living in the day where they're going to actually arrest...
	They're going to arrest in...
	A former president.
	Potential future president.
	Not much different than the corruption that we saw in Brazil.
	Not much different than the corruption we saw in Russia.
	Right?
	And they're only going to do it once, people.
	They're only going to do it once.
	But some of you might be asking, why on earth are we not talking about it?
	It's going to be on all day, peeps.
	And the guest for today is someone who's busier than any normal 16 or 17-year-old person.
	I was going to say kid, but I think that's demeaning.
	Because this kid's far beyond a kid.
	This gentleman, this young man, is busier than most 16 or 17-year-olds typically are.
	And you may or may not have heard of him.
	If you have heard of him, you're going to want to watch this.
	If you haven't heard of him, you're going to want to watch this.
	We're going to start in Canada.
	I've got about an hour with him, maybe a little less than an hour.
	He's going to explain what's going on in Canada, what happened to him.
	And then, when he goes to yet another appointment...
	Then we're going to talk Trump.
	All right.
	His name is Josh Alexander, for those of you who don't know.
	The headlines are that he was arrested for saying that there are only two sexes or two genders.
	There's nuance to that.
	It's like, you know, that guy out of BC saying he was arrested for misgendering his kid, and there's a little more to it.
	Not that it attenuates the absurdity, just that it will allow those who want to say, it's not what you think it is, therefore stop saying that.
	To say that, but the more you know, the more you know.
	So I'm going to bring on Josh Alexander.
	You may have seen him on Tucker Carlson.
	We luckily have more than three minutes to delve into this story.
	Three minutes is not enough for anything.
	No shade on Tucker.
	Just, I love this format.
	So we're going to bring him in.
	We are live on Rumble.
	Let me just make sure that we are currently good and live on Rumble.
	We are.
	We are also currently good and live on Locals.
	Where I will be going after the Rumble.
	We're going to be going to Rumble at some point today.
	And that's it.
	Okay.
	Without further adieu, let us bring in the man of the hour, Josh Alexander.
	Three, two, one.
	Booyakasha.
	Josh, how goes the battle, sir?
	Not too bad.
	Yourself?
	Not bad.
	I see you're wearing one of them Trump-inspired Save Canada hats.
	Okay.
	Look, before we get into the details of the story, for those who don't know...
	30,000 foot overview.
	Who are you and have you turned 17 yet?
	Yeah, actually, I just turned 17 last week, I believe.
	I guess the quick summary would be I started activism kind of when I was 14 years old.
	The COVID-19 restrictions were beginning and something seemed off.
	Even at 14 years old, I could tell that it was being manipulated and corrupted, and it was just typical crisis corruption.
	So I started organizing student walkouts and some protests, and there's a lot of backstory behind that, but I can't get into all of it immediately.
	But yeah, I was the leader of the high school walkouts against mandates and online learning across Canada.
	Anyways, I ran in some issues with the school board there.
	I was in the public board at the time, and they were suspending me.
	The cops kept getting called to my school.
	All in all, I ended up graduating.
	I graduated grade 10, and at the beginning of grade 11, I decided to switch to the Catholic board.
	Hopefully...
	I was hoping that the Catholic Board would align more so with my Christian beliefs.
	And I maybe have a bit of a fresh start after a rather dramatic couple of years in high school.
	But anyways, that's not how it ended up going.
	I switched to the Catholic Board and I was informed by female students, some of my peers, that males were using their washrooms and they were uncomfortable and concerned about this.
	However, I mean, in our day and age, it's a very controversial topic and nobody wanted to talk about it.
	So I decided to voice my opinion on it and kind of voice their concerns.
	And this came up in a classroom format.
	It also came up in the office.
	I was labeled, you know, the typical racist, sexist, homophobic bigot.
	I got the whole list you get from the left wing whenever you proclaim the truth.
	But I just continued to...
	Give my message respectfully.
	I directed my message at the school board rather than the individual students who were violating the female's privacy because I also recognize that it's not necessarily a vote that they were naturally put into.
	Their parents and the system encouraged them into it and confused them, and I have a level of sympathy for them.
	So I had a message directed at the board.
	We organized a protest.
	And I was met by quite a few counter-protesters.
	Long story short, I got suspended.
	And then I was welcomed back under certain conditions, which I didn't agree to.
	The conditions were that I wasn't allowed to speak to certain students.
	I was permanently banned from math class and religion class.
	And there's a couple others, but I didn't agree to them.
	And in response to that, they decided to give me an exclusion order.
	And when I decided that the exclusion order was a violation of my freedoms and I felt that I would be condoning a discriminatory act by abiding by it and complying with this exclusion order, I decided to return to school.
	And that's where I was met by Ontario Provincial Police and arrested.
	Okay, we're going to unpack, actually, all of that in the detail that's going to allow people to not make sense of it, but at least to understand how this happens in a Kafkaesque world of insanity.
	Just to back it up straight to the beginning, if I may ask, how many siblings do you have in your family?
	I have three siblings.
	So there's four kids?
	Yeah.
	Born and raised religious, or did you discover religion, I guess, as an adolescent?
	Well, I mean, I was raised in an evangelical church.
	I grew up in that environment, but in the end, it was my decision.
	And I've chosen to follow Christ, and that's the path I'm on right now.
	And so four kids.
	Are you the youngest, the oldest?
	Where do you fit in there?
	I'm the second youngest.
	Second youngest.
	Okay.
	Born and raised in Canada.
	Obviously, I can tell maybe...
	Northern Ontario, or where are you from originally, or born?
	I'm from, well, not quite southern Ontario, but around Ottawa.
	And I used to, I was in the States briefly.
	I'm a dual citizen.
	I was in Arizona.
	And then I came back here, and I've been here most of my life.
	Okay, very, very interesting.
	Now...
	When I was in high school and when I was your age, I was a royal pain in the ass.
	Some would say probably retrospectively that I suffered from oppositional defiance disorder.
	When I discovered religion, it wasn't out of a sincere belief.
	Of religion itself, per se, but it was more motivated by pissing off the school that I was at.
	It was a private, non-Jewish school, so I discovered by wearing not just a kippah, but one of those Moroccan keepers that go down on your head, I could piss off the administration, and so my act of defiance, though noble in principle, was actually probably more motivated by rebelliousness than sincere belief.
	When was the first act of opposition that you took as a teenager?
	What was the first step where you said, I'm rebelling.
	And was it a sincere rebellion or the novelty of rebelling against authority?
	So I was actually, I guess I skipped a step.
	I was homeschooled up until grade 7. So I only entered the public system partway through grade 7. So I guess it would have been there that I first kind of contested the school on the national anthem.
	They had been playing very disrespectful.
	I mean, I was successful.
	We sort of campaigned to get a more respectful anthem in the building, and we were successful at that.
	But that wasn't very controversial at the time.
	That was just me deciding to voice my opinion on something publicly.
	But, oh, I don't even know.
	There's been so much over the years.
	Were you a rebellious kid?
	If you're homeschooled, I guess you can't rebel against the administration without rebelling against your parents.
	But what's that like?
	We have stereotypes as to what's that like.
	Are you a homebody?
	Were you a rebellious kid even as a homeschooler?
	No, I was never a rebellious kid by my own standards.
	When you look at the world today, I mean, just being a Christian and upholding your values means you have to be rebellious.
	The whole stereotype of rebellion has completely changed just within a couple generations.
	And so it really depends how you define rebellious.
	I was never a problematic student.
	I mean, I won the Citizenship Award in my elementary school after only being there for two years.
	So it wasn't like I was in trouble for any misbehavior.
	It was just controversial topics that I would voice my opinions on.
	You're homeschooled.
	When do you get into the public system as relates to, temporally, the lockdowns and COVID?
	I would have joined one year before, I believe.
	So I joined the school partway through grade 7, and then it was just past halfway through grade 8 that the restrictions started to affect us.
	Tell us what the restrictions were like.
	This will help explain your second act of rebellion.
	But what was that life like for a 15-year-old kid?
	Yeah, so, I mean, it would start slowly and over time it would just get worse and worse.
	But for one, they told us that we're just going off school for two weeks, flatten the curve.
	And it ended up being a lot longer than that.
	We did some online learning.
	And then I don't even see it.
	It's really messed up.
	There's been so much action and chaos the last couple of years.
	It's hard to keep track of everything that happened.
	It went from online learning to in-person again briefly.
	I believe it was at the beginning of my high school.
	From the end of halfway through grade 8 until the beginning of high school, I had no in-person learning.
	And then in the beginning of high school, we had to wear masks and socially distance and all these crazy rules, which proved to be an issue from my first 15 seconds in high school.
	Okay, very interesting.
	And so when school goes, what sort of proactive protest did you do for the COVID measures once you went back to school?
	Yeah, so I mean, I didn't want to make too much of a deal out of it at the start.
	I guess I would have been 14 at the time.
	My goal is to just get to high school, but it started to become more of an issue over time.
	There was too much of a stigma from staff members towards myself, and it proved to be a bit of an issue.
	There was also some other topics of debate that were going on in the building at the time.
	For instance, the Canadian flag was at half-mass for six months, I believe.
	This was a violation of the flag code.
	I felt it was disrespectful.
	And so myself and some of my crew who now make up Save Canada were running out of this school every single day and raising the flag.
	And then they would lower it and we would raise it and they would lower it.
	And anyways, this went on for months.
	And anyways, it got to the point where there was one day where just in my morning classes I had already raised the flag four times in one day.
	And anyways, I hear a thing get called over the PA and they're calling me down to the office.
	And so I run out the back door.
	I sprint towards the flag.
	And I see the principal coming around the corner.
	It was a race for the flag.
	And I won and I got the flag up.
	And my hand was all bleeding.
	And I walk towards the door and they tell me I need to put on a mask and stuff.
	I said, sorry, I can't.
	I'm wounded.
	So anyways, this struck quite a controversy in the board.
	There ended up being a big board meeting about me raising the flags at the school, and they told me I'd be suspended if I did it again.
	I challenged it, said it was disrespectful.
	And anyways, they called for a meeting, and the flags went up all across the board the next day.
	Why was the flag at half-mast?
	Was that in relation to the residential school situation?
	Was it because this was to commemorate the...
	I'm not saying this to be belittling.
	I'm actually going to say this just to illustrate the absurdity of it.
	But they were at half-mass.
	We noticed this everywhere for an extended period of time.
	And I think the rationale was that it was to commemorate the tragedy of the residential schooling issue, which had been recently discovered by the media, though, known to everyone for decades.
	That was the reason why they were at half-mass?
	Yes, that was the reason.
	And I addressed that.
	And I spoke to them and I said, look, I get it.
	It was a tragedy.
	It was awful.
	What's happened in those residential schools.
	And I said, the flags, I mean, if you want to lower them, lower them as a sign of respect, a sign of solidarity.
	But do not keep them down for six months.
	I mean, they were supposed to be down for each student or something.
	And a day for each student.
	And I said, we didn't lower the flags for every soldier that died fighting for our country.
	It loses its value lowering the flag when you do it every single day.
	And then there was also a friend of mine at the school that passed away.
	And the flag, of course, didn't get lowered for them.
	Usually they would lower the flag or something like that happened because it was already been lowered for months.
	So there's no significance in it.
	Let me ask a very personal question.
	Can I ask how that student passed away?
	It was health issues.
	They were disabled.
	And you say, you know, disrespectful to the flag.
	I also viewed it as being demoralizing to a nation where everyone's like, why is the flag down for six months?
	And I'll just, I'll maybe say my bit here.
	Disrespectful in that the media and the government purported that this was a new thing.
	We just discovered the extent of this tragedy.
	They had known for a decade it was just Justin Trudeau that decided to weaponize it come election season.
	And oddly enough, you know, they're lowering the flag.
	To commemorate the atrocity of the residential school system, which was a government atrocity, at the time performed for the greater good and for the good of the kids when they were ripping Native kids from their families to assimilate them, and then when they were in these institutions abusing them and experimenting on them, done by the government, or with the expressed authorization of the government, and the rationale was for the good of the kids.
	So what happened?
	Bloody hand, you go in, you say, I can't put the mask on, and you won the race to the flag.
	What happens to you after this?
	Well, they actually, in typical school board fashion, they decided to only address the issue and call me to the office to discuss it the final day before Christmas break.
	This has actually happened now on my Catholic board.
	It seems to be a pattern they like to use because we go on break for two weeks and they don't have to see me for two weeks after that.
	So they addressed it and I said, alright, I want names.
	Give me names.
	I'll go and talk to them and we'll discuss why the flag's down.
	Otherwise, I'm just going to keep raising it myself.
	Anyways, like I said, they called for a meeting and the flags went up all across the board.
	And so that was kind of our first success.
	We had been posting on our social medias for Safe Canada just of us raising the flag.
	Occasionally, we'd make some videos out of it.
	But it was very small things like that.
	That's just an example of what would happen at schools.
	But then, yeah, the convoy was starting to roll around.
	We had already done one protest with four students.
	There was four of us that walked out and went to the road.
	We got met by some community supporters.
	But the protests in the schools were quite pathetic at the time.
	When the convoy started to roll around, there was a lot more people eager to end these restrictions.
	And they started to listen to what I was saying.
	And I decided to organize a protest.
	Well, I mean, I'd say maybe 40 students came out, out of a school of 300.
	And the cops were called.
	I spent hours in the office negotiating.
	The principals told me I'd be suspended and anybody who attended would be put in detention for as many minutes as they walked out for.
	For attending the convoy or for protesting?
	For attending my protest.
	Okay.
	In solidarity with the convoy.
	Wow.
	All right.
	Now, hold on.
	Before you carry on, everybody on YouTube, we're going to end it here.
	And we're going to go to Rumble.
	It changes nothing on our end, Josh.
	I'm just going to click the link.
	We're going to go over.
	And not because we're going to have a conversation that we can't have on YouTube.
	Just because.
	And I'll post the entire interview on YouTube tomorrow.
	So we are going to end on YouTube in 3, 2, 1. Now.
	Okay.
	And we're still live here.
	Okay.
	So...
	They're threatening anybody who attends your protest with suspension.
	Josh, I presume I'm not imagining...
	This is now at the religious school, at the Catholic school.
	No, this is at the public board.
	Okay, so now you're at the public board.
	I presume, not that I'm going to accuse them of double standards, I presume they have allowed for protests for such movements as BLM.
	Gay pride, all those other things.
	I presume there have been protests that students have been not only allowed to participate in, but encouraged to participate in?
	Even more ironically than those topics, they had a protest against the Doug Ford Cuts to Education Fund.
	So when it affected them, they were encouraging students to walk out.
	But yeah, so there was obvious double standard there.
	I organized multiple protests.
	It started spreading quickly.
	Our posters, I never put my name on it.
	We never really said anything about it.
	We'd send it out.
	And the Facebook mom was pretty good at jumping on and supporting us and spreading it across the country.
	And actually, it spread pretty quick.
	I still hear about schools that walked out.
	There was some in British Columbia.
	There was a lot in Nova Scotia, all across Ontario.
	But yeah, they were everywhere.
	And I remember at one of our final protests, there was an Indigenous girl with a Every Child Matters plague.
	And I got pulled into the office and basically told we shouldn't have that at our protest.
	And this is after I was demoralized for raising the flags that were down for six months in solidarity with that issue.
	So it shows what a double standard there is.
	When an indigenous girl protests for her own freedoms that are now being stripped away as they had been in history, it was an issue for them.
	But if we dared respect the flag and raise it as it should be, we had to be punished.
	Blacklisting protests against the COVID mandates, they are actually...
	The school and the government are indirectly penalizing, disproportionately, the indigenous communities that don't necessarily want to get the vaccine for historical reasons, i.e.
	residential schools or other.
	There is no logic to it except for the fact that it's hierarchy and you shall not have the same rights that they have.
	What was the ultimate outcome?
	You don't strike me as being someone who's going to stop the protesting because the school told you to.
	How did the rest of that year...
	Well, yeah, I remember my principal pulled me aside like we had been.
	I spent so much time just in the office rather than in class, being scolded by the principals for my unacceptable behavior.
	But they told me that they were no longer going to facilitate my protest.
	I said, you never have.
	You've only ever punished us for it.
	But I said I'm going to keep doing it, and it'll be up to the student body whether they walk out or not.
	And so anyways, a day later or so, my vice principal pulls me aside in the hallway and says, so I just got off the phone with the Ontario Provincial Police, and I was informing them about your protests planned for this Friday, and they actually, he said they told me that there's this thing called the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
	And you have a right to peaceful assembly.
	I looked at him and was like, no, there's not a chance.
	And he didn't know what the Chartered Rights and Freedoms was.
	The Ontario Ferencial Police had to explain to my vice principal what my right to peaceful assembly was.
	Okay, but now that can be interpreted in two different ways.
	You're sure that this...
	Principal was not on your side and he's being tongue-in-cheek like, so they explained it to me and now you get to do it?
	Or was this guy bonafide ignorant and didn't know that you had- Oh, he was ignorant.
	He was very ignorant.
	Okay.
	So the cops explained- There had been times where he was shouting at me through gritted teeth and stuff.
	Like, he would lose his school.
	And, uh...
	So the police explained to him that you have the right to protest.
	It's just that nasty, pesky little charter right, which they found a way to abrogate in Nova Scotia over the summer.
	But I presume that doesn't quell any of the opposition from the school?
	I mean, I was suspended a number of times after that.
	But like I said, I was able to graduate from that one.
	It was a little less hostile.
	Had I stayed another year, I don't know what would have happened.
	It was after all that drama and stuff.
	The restrictions had been lifted.
	I'd done my job.
	And I just decided to get a fresh start and maybe actually be more successful in the Catholic board.
	And that's when I switched to the Catholic board for the beginning of grade 11. And that didn't go over so well.
	We'll get there.
	Just one last question.
	Feel free not to answer it.
	Did your grades take a ding, if not from the distraction of what you're doing, but rather from the backlash of the teachers who have some discretionary power when grading stuff?
	Oh, absolutely.
	Yeah, they definitely were affected by it.
	I mean, a lot of it was backlash.
	I remember on a science test, I got asked to create basically a socialist plan for how the government can cut down on the climate effect that our businesses are having.
	I said no.
	I said I'm not doing this.
	This is science class.
	I don't have to write up some socialist ideology.
	And I got doctored points for that.
	So there's a number of things just with the stigma against me from the staff.
	So I did lose grades and just with the distraction and all the chaos going on I was quite busy.
	And so yeah, I moved back to my grades.
	It would have been funny just to have an essay showing that the greenhouse gases are in fact the biggest, you know, potentially one of the biggest hoaxes of all time or the biggest fake news theories of all time.
	Okay, interesting.
	And by the way, just so no one clips that out of context, humans pollute.
	Pollution is bad.
	That's about where I think the agreement will end.
	All right, so you graduate grade 10 from the public board.
	You then say, I'm going to go into a Catholic school.
	Surely we will not have the same problems we have.
	We're a religious in spirit, in philosophy.
	We respect the individual.
	We respect the rights.
	We respect the Bible, presumably, to which we pray.
	Does it start off acrimonious or does it get acrimonious quickly?
	I know that there had been a couple of mentions where the...
	Where my teachers had said they had had contact with my previous school and they knew about me.
	I mean, it wasn't like it was a secret who I was.
	I was fairly well known already.
	And if not, students and staff figured out very quickly what I stood for just because of how rare it is to see a young person embrace traditional values.
	Yeah, I mean, I never, I was going there after my experience in the other board.
	I was going there simply for school and then I'd leave.
	I didn't really socialize with anybody too much, nor did I want to.
	And the only time anybody would really hear me talk was while in debate with the teacher.
	So, I mean, a lot of people didn't even know my name.
	They would call me, my nickname was just Freedom.
	People would walk by in the hall and say, hey, Freedom.
	And I'd just keep walking and say hello.
	Yeah, I mean, the dynamics were very strange.
	It was like, I'd just go there, argue with the teachers about, I mean, with the ideology they were pushing on the students, and then I'd go home and then come back and do it again the next day.
	So it did get, it got off to a bad start immediately.
	Dude, they nicknamed you Freedom, and you're not being glib or ironic or sarcastic.
	Your nickname was Freedom in school?
	Yeah, yeah.
	Life can't get any better than that.
	In retrospect, that's going to be the greatest memory that you'll have of high school, if it's not already.
	That is actually the greatest thing I've ever heard.
	And that people understand what you're doing, though they don't necessarily have either the audacity, the courage, or the oppositional defiance disorder to act on it.
	Oh, that's so cool.
	Okay, fine.
	So when does the poop hit the fan as relates to the most recent incidents?
	Before that question.
	Some people are going to say, you are a hammer looking for a nail.
	You're looking for things to get mad about.
	Why can't you just be quiet?
	Let the boys change in the girls' locker room.
	What happened to set this off?
	Well, yeah, I mean, a lot of people just consider me rebellious.
	We had just talked about this.
	But that's not really the case.
	I've seen firsthand the effects that the...
	The ridiculousness our board's push has had.
	I mean, the suicide rates, the depression rates, just the morale in general.
	It's awful.
	And when you have, well, first I watched the board endorse and defend the restrictions that so dramatically affected the students.
	And then I watched them push their gender ideology.
	And then even, I mean, on my first day in class.
	My first day in my law class at the school.
	It's a new school.
	I've just sat down the first couple of minutes there.
	And the teacher introduces the class and says, all right, we're going to be looking at the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and our different rights there.
	For instance, the right to peaceful assembly.
	She says, we're going to look at lawful assembly and unlawful assembly.
	And we'll use it in different examples.
	And then she says that the Freedom Convoy is an unlawful assembly.
	And this is before it's gone through the courts and everything.
	And I said, well, wait a second.
	Like, I'm a new kid.
	Nobody knows who I am.
	I'm just sitting there.
	I raise my hand.
	I go, wait a second.
	You're a law teacher.
	You should know this hasn't gone through the courts.
	It's not unlawful.
	And I said, it was a peaceful assembly.
	By nature, it was a peaceful assembly.
	And we were protesting for chartered rights.
	And she said, well, no, you have to have a permit to protest on Parliament Hill.
	I said, no, you don't.
	I've organized protests on Parliament Hill before.
	All you need is a permit if you want to use the electricity or the port of bodies provided by the city or certain things like that.
	And she just kind of went red and said, okay, we'll get into that in future classes.
	I need details to satisfy my curiosity.
	Is this teacher young or old?
	Fairly old.
	Fairly old.
	A woman you've already mentioned.
	Canadian?
	Yep.
	Any other indications as to ideological perspective of this teacher before this incident?
	For me, not before this incident.
	It didn't take long to learn quite a few different things about this individual, like a raging feminist.
	Nothing's wrong with that.
	Nothing's wrong with that when done properly.
	Well, modern feminism is...
	Anyway, she was also a...
	I believe she was a Greenpeace advocate.
	I'm a big fan of the Green Party.
	Well, it all makes sense.
	And by the way, that was sort of tongue-in-cheek.
	I studied feminist law at McGill University, and the feminism that they taught us, feminism, was that sex was inherently rape.
	I mean, it was inherently a male-dominated...
	This was Andrea Dworkin.
	And I wrote a thesis saying that's fundamentally impossible to ascribe morality to an act of nature.
	And I got a C- on that paper from the teacher when I wrote Ms. and her last name crossed off the Ms. and put doctor.
	And I never forgot that.
	When feminism is no longer women have the choice, but women must do as the feminists say.
	That's an ideology and not a philosophy.
	Okay, so you learn this quickly, and you've publicly embarrassed your teacher in front of the entire class, and you're right.
	It's not like there's room for debate.
	You're objectively right, which is going to make her exponentially angrier at you.
	Any other incidents with that teacher, or was that it for her?
	Well, there was plenty.
	Every day.
	I mean, this is kind of the point I'm getting at.
	It's not necessarily that I'm rebellious.
	I just have traditional views, and I'm not going to compromise.
	Especially when it affects young people, impressionable minds.
	I'm not going to sit there and pretend it's normal, pretend it's okay that they're being indoctrinated at a supposedly unbiased education facility.
	So I would always speak out against these things because I felt it was the right thing to do.
	And it would be, like, daily, there would be a different issue.
	And we'd be debating that.
	And, I mean...
	When I was addressed by the female students saying that males were using their washrooms, that was something that, personally, as a young man, I felt an obligation to speak out of, more so than anything else.
	When a young lady comes up and talks to you, it's my job to protect and provide.
	So that's what I attempted to do.
	Oh, that's going to piss off the feminists, Josh.
	Let me back up for one second.
	What the hell is going on?
	I don't understand this.
	You're at a Catholic school.
	And I say this without judgment.
	One presumes that a religious institution is going to espouse religious beliefs.
	If you don't like those religious beliefs, and there's, you know, there's debatable argument there, like, I don't believe in circumcision.
	I believe, you know, it's bad for the baby.
	I don't believe in judging gays.
	I mean, look, I understand that.
	So if you don't like it, don't go to a religious school.
	How does this, you're at a Catholic religious school.
	How does it come to be that a biological male, Is anywhere near the girls' locker room?
	Well, the Catholic board is really only Catholic in name.
	They're now publicly funded, so they cater to the public funding.
	And so when I actually, when I ended up in all this trouble, I went to the office and I said, okay, I've already addressed you about these concerns.
	You don't want to talk about it.
	However, you're a Catholic school.
	You claim to recognize the supremacy of the Word of God.
	Let's open the Word of God and let's talk about it.
	And they said, okay, we can't do that with you, but we'll bring in a chaplain and a priest and we'll sit down and do that.
	I said, all right, let's do it tomorrow.
	And they said, no, we can't do it tomorrow.
	I said, all right, the next day.
	I offered them four different dates.
	And to this day, it hasn't happened.
	I mean, they claim to be a Catholic school, but they certainly don't live it.
	I personally am not Catholic.
	I'm a born-again Christian, but we have a very similar belief system and uphold the same fundamental values.
	And they didn't want to entertain any of that discussion.
	It's an interesting observation how the government co-ops or hijacks religious education through the public funding as you become dependent on the dollar and no longer...
	an independent religious institution.
	Okay, and so what is the debate?
	How does it come to be that there are biological males, that there's a trans student at this religious institution who insists on changing in the locker room despite their male genitalization?
	Well, apparently it had been happening for some time, before I had obviously attended the school.
	I didn't even know about it until these female students came up to me and complained.
	Like I said, I spoke out against it.
	It was incredibly controversial.
	I went to the office.
	I talked to the principal.
	And I said, okay, there's males using the female washrooms.
	And he said, they're females.
	And I said, no, they're males.
	And I'm sitting here in the office.
	And he tells me that...
	These males are now females.
	And I said, no, females don't have penises.
	And it got kind of quiet in the office, and we're both kind of just sitting there staring at each other.
	And he goes, well, that's your opinion.
	And he said, we don't live in a world of absolute reality.
	And anyways, I said his stance was ridiculous, and it needs to be discussed.
	And he just kind of blew it off.
	A female student came in and had the same conversation with him.
	And again, he didn't take her concerns seriously either.
	And it was at that point that I decided to organize the protest.
	I need to highlight the absurdity.
	You have an adult male telling you, in the name of feminism, purportedly, you have a feminist teacher that women are not women.
	That's a matter of opinion.
	And that a man can usurp the identity of a woman.
	And it's feminism.
	This is progressivism.
	And he's telling you it's a matter of opinion that someone with a penis, because I presume these kids have not gone through the surgery, which is itself a whole separate debate, intact.
	So you have an intact male in the locker room with a female, a woman, a girl, who comes to...
	Mr. Freedom, because you're the only person that they can come to now, knowing that you might do something about this to vocalize for them what the administration is not listening to, that is a world that's gone batshit crazy.
	I'm sorry to swear.
	It's gone batshit crazy.
	So you organize a protest, and I presume the protest is what gets you into the biggest trouble?
	Well, yes.
	I mean, when you look at it from a factual perspective.
	Yes, that's what got me in trouble.
	They will refuse and say that it was my comments in class.
	So I announced the protest, and two days before the protest date, they suspend me indefinitely with a possibility of expulsion.
	Let me stop you there.
	They suspend you two days before the protest.
	Protest hasn't happened yet, so they've got to find a pretext or an explanation for the suspension.
	Okay, so what is it?
	They will say that they didn't suspend me because of the protest, but I mean...
	The conversations had happened a month before, and there was no discipline for that.
	It wasn't until I announced the protest that it became a problem.
	What was their basis or their explanation for suspending you?
	I mean, it took quite a while to get them to explain what they had against me, but it ended up being that while in a debate in my math class...
	My teacher had said that male breast, had defended male breastfeeding and said it was okay.
	And actually, there's two teachers that did it.
	But while speaking with the one class, I said that male breastfeeding is pedophilia.
	And that didn't go over very well.
	And then in that same class, there was a transgender student who left their chair in the debate while I'm being shouted at.
	And berated by a class and the teacher as well.
	And they leave their chair and they're shouting at me, you can be whatever you want to be and all that.
	And I'm saying, no, I said, no, there's only male and female.
	You're born one or the other.
	And that's one of the allegations against me that was considered bullying because it was said to a transgender student who was out of their seat coming towards me.
	But anyways, those are the main allegations against me.
	They still stand to this day.
	So those are the two statements that if a man breastfeeds a baby, what does that even mean?
	What does it even mean?
	Is he putting on a prosthetic breast that's filled with milk like they have so that men can bond with their baby?
	Or did the teacher mean a man sticking his non-lactating hairy nipple in the mouth of a baby?
	Yes.
	That's correct.
	And that's where it got pretty awkward in class because he's now, like, he's teachers shouting, he's losing his cool.
	And I just said, I mean, we're running a fine line into pedophilia here.
	And he said, what do you mean?
	And I said, well, for one, you're shouting about children's sexuality while you're in a math class.
	And secondly, you're now endorsing.
	And it got pretty awkward in the class when I said it, but it needed to be said.
	I said, you're now endorsing.
	A man forcing a baby to suck his nipples.
	And it just got kind of quiet and I don't think the conversation went much farther after that.
	Josh, it's obligatory.
	It's obligatory.
	Never will there be a better time for this clip than now.
	Because you know that if it made it onto the family...
	The reason why it was a joke on the family is to be struggling.
	This is just...
	Oh, my God.
	This is just...
	Okay, that's...
	So they retroactively go and try and convict you for...
	What some might say is past the statute of limitations for a legitimate excuse to suspend a student.
	If it was so bad, it would have been done at the time.
	Or even an issue made of it at the time.
	They suspend you for those two statements.
	And when you say debate, by the way, you mean an argument in class.
	There's no organized debate between a teacher or students.
	This is just like a fight in class where you tell the teacher in real time, this is madness and you should understand it.
	So they suspend you two days before the protest.
	And is this where they give you the conditions for your suspension or did it come later?
	So I ended up being suspended for 20 school days.
	And just before Christmas break, what do you know?
	They say, all right, well, you're welcome back.
	Come have a meeting.
	We went, we sat down, we had a meeting.
	And they said that they gave me those conditions.
	You aren't allowed to attend math class or religion class.
	You'll be in a separate segregated room.
	And the teacher will deliver you work every day, and you'll just do it on your own in there.
	And you also won't be allowed to speak to...
	They gave me two names, two students.
	One, I presume, was the transgender kid?
	Both of them, I think.
	Well, the thing is, they gave me these names, and I didn't even know who one of them was.
	Because it was not...
	These are students I've apparently bullied, and I didn't even know who the one was.
	They had to explain and give a description of who it was, and I had no idea.
	So that shows how much time I've spent plotting and bullying this kid.
	You could bully them through silence, considering silence is violence.
	You can actually assault someone with your absence of words.
	They give you the two names of the kids.
	I'm actually just still trying to figure out how transgender students decide to attend a school that is religious, that fundamentally, by the origins of the religion, might...
	have moral and philosophical issues with this.
	I mean, I guess it's conceivable to the extent that it doesn't, the kids don't try to dictate policy, but it sounds like that's not the case here.
	So the conditions they give you, suspended, no debate, no appeal that you've had as of now, but suspended, here are the conditions to which you say...
	Well, I said, no, I'm not abiding by those.
	They're discriminatory.
	I ended up getting my lawyer, James Kitchen, from Liberty Coalition Canada.
	And he said he, on my behalf, contacted the school, said Josh won't be abiding by those conditions and he'll be attending all of his classes.
	And they responded to that and said that was a threat.
	And they said that they felt my presence in the building would be detrimental to the physical and mental well-being of the pupils.
	So they're going to have to exclude me indefinitely.
	So they give me this exclusion order.
	An exclusion order under Ontario law, that's basically like if you go on the premises, it's trespassing.
	Yes.
	Well, it's basically, I'd never heard of it before.
	Basically, it's a suspension, but it's non-disciplinary.
	I haven't done anything that they can punish, but they feel I'm a threat in the building, so they're going to have me excluded.
	Okay.
	And then the penalty to violating the exclusion order is basically a deemed trespass so that if you come on the property, they're going to say it's trespass and that's how they're going to get you arrested?
	It took another step before that.
	So they give me this exclusion order.
	I talk to my lawyer.
	I say, I don't feel I can condone this.
	This is just, I'm going to school.
	I've been there now for 20 school days, actually more at this point.
	This is ridiculous.
	I'm going back to class.
	I haven't done anything wrong.
	So I go to school.
	They run up to me.
	They were confused.
	They were panicked.
	And they tell me that I need to leave the building.
	I'm not welcome on the property.
	They tell me I need to meet with them.
	And I said, sure, I'll meet with you as long as my lawyer's on the phone.
	Otherwise, no.
	And they didn't want to agree to that.
	And so they followed me class to class.
	And they would write down, well, it appeared they'd write down anything I said.
	Yeah, I finished up that day.
	I left.
	And when I got home, I was informed that I had a trespassing notice as well as another five-day suspension.
	The trespassing notice was to go until the end of the semester.
	So I ended up waiting all of that stuff out.
	And the police phoned me in that period and asked for an update and stuff like they didn't already know I had a trespassing notice that had been sent to them as well.
	And I mean, I waited it all out.
	I've now lost four credits for that semester.
	Now I'm going to be getting four new classes a day.
	What would appear to be a fresh start, new teachers, everything.
	And all my suspensions and exclusions and trespasses are over.
	And I contact the school, or my lawyer does on my behalf, and he says, all right, it's over.
	Josh is returning to school.
	He's going to continue to adhere to his religious beliefs.
	And he expects not to be discriminated as he had been before.
	And in response to that, they gave the exact same line.
	They felt my presence in the building would be detrimental to the physical and mental well-being of the pupils.
	And I need to be excluded indefinitely.
	So they excluded me.
	And this one was to go to the end of the year.
	So now I'm just, they've said I'm out for the year.
	I looked at it and I went, okay, this is, I mean, it's ridiculous.
	I've now lost four credits.
	I've been suspended.
	This stuff's all on my student record as well.
	And I've been suspended twice.
	And given two exclusion orders, and I've done nothing wrong.
	I'm going to attend class.
	I mean, they can show their true colors and do whatever they want to do while I'm there.
	I'm going to go to class and hopefully actually get my credits for the semester.
	So I attended school that day, and I walked into the school, and they tried to get my phone.
	I politely declined, and then they told me that Well, I was sitting in class and they told the entire class it was dismissed.
	I guess they didn't want any witnesses to what was about to happen.
	So when they said class was dismissed, I grabbed my bag and left with the class.
	And then they call everybody back and say, no, like they explained, they were trying to get me separate.
	And anyways, I said, look, if you want to talk, I'm not going to make a game out of it.
	I'll just call my lawyer and we'll go down and talk.
	So I did.
	I called my lawyer.
	We walked down to the office.
	And when I stepped foot in the office, the principal stood in front of the exit and informed me there's some people on the way to see me.
	And a few minutes later, Ontario provincial police officers walked in and told me I was trespassing and I had a trespassing notice that I need to leave.
	I explained to them I didn't have a trespassing notice.
	I only had this unlawful exclusion order.
	And they didn't know that.
	And they said, well, the principal's asked you to leave, so you need to leave.
	And I explained to them, I mean, I said, if you choose to arrest me, I'm not going to resist, but I'm also not going to leave the building upon a request.
	This is unlawful, it's discriminatory.
	I'm here to go to class.
	Should you arrest me for attending class, that's on you.
	And so they did.
	They arrested me and they took me outside.
	They put me in the cruiser.
	Did they cuff you?
	No, they didn't cuff me, actually.
	What happened is, I mean, that shows how much of a problematic student I was.
	What a threat that when they arrested me, they didn't even cuff me.
	Your weapons are words, Josh.
	They should cuff your mouth is what they're basically trying to do.
	Sorry, carry on.
	I walk out.
	I hold the door for the officers as we're headed out to the cruiser.
	I held myself into the cruiser.
	It was a bit of a joke of an arrest.
	But anyways, they ended up handing me off to my brother.
	And yeah, I was given a trespassing charge, and that was that for that day.
	That's the only time that you've been arrested?
	Was that the only time you've been arrested?
	That was the first time I was arrested.
	Okay, now let me add one question before we get to the second time.
	Is anybody in the school standing up for you?
	Like, is there no other Spartacus in school?
	Or are people actually, like, berating you, shouting you as you're being perp-watched to the principal's office?
	Well, I mean, there are students that support me.
	There were quite a few more before they...
	Well, one, I was kicked out of the school.
	They'd go class to class and they would talk about me and say that students would have their reputations ruined if they were seen with me.
	If they joined the protest, they wouldn't have transportation home and stuff.
	So there was a lot of fear-mongering and intimidation involved there.
	So I lost some, at least, public support from that.
	And then when they watched me get arrested, students don't want to be arrested at school.
	So that silenced a lot of kids.
	But no, I don't have a whole lot of vocal support.
	I have a lot of private support, but not many are willing to publicize it at this point.
	All right, so you get arrested, booked, charged?
	The whole thing?
	I didn't get booked.
	They kept me in the cruiser the entire time and then ended up policing me on the side of the road.
	Okay, so no police terms or bail conditions or things like that?
	No, none of that.
	Okay, that's the first time.
	They let you go off somewhere and you go home and they want you to scuttle off and never come back.
	Are you kicked out of school at this point in time?
	Yeah, like up until today, I'm kicked out for the remainder of the year.
	And there's been, I mean, there hasn't been much.
	I mean, they haven't really said if I'll be back next year at all.
	Well, and you're losing a year.
	You're losing a year.
	You're going to graduate a year later now, if you can graduate.
	At least a year later.
	Okay.
	Sorry, what's the second time you got arrested?
	So the second time I got arrested, I got arrested at the school on February 6th.
	On February 8th, I had organized a protest outside the National Arts Center where a drag queen, a transvestite, was reading books to kids.
	I communicated with police liaison.
	I said, this is where we're going to be.
	I mean, I don't know how many people are going to be here, but we did our best to keep an open line of communication.
	We agreed upon a location.
	And the day of, we got pushed.
	I mean, pushed away by counter-protesters and stuff, which, I mean, vastly outnumbered us.
	And my crew from Safe Canada, myself, my brother, and Monty decided to go back to the doors where we had agreed upon for protesting.
	We went there with our megaphone, and we started giving the gospel.
	We quoted some scripture and stuff.
	And within seconds, we were...
	I attacked, pinned up against the wall.
	I had my hat ripped off and stomped out.
	The police ran into the crowd and instead of grabbing our attackers, they took us and threw us into the street.
	They have arrested my brother for being in the street because the police on the sidewalk would push us into the street and the police on the street would push us onto the sidewalk.
	So anyways, they arrested my brother for that and released him within 15 minutes.
	With no charges, because it was a joke of an arrest.
	And then, yeah, a few minutes later, I was still using my megaphone.
	I was quoting John 316 at the time, and a cop told me that if I didn't stop using the megaphone, I'd be arrested for disruption.
	But disruption isn't even a charge.
	I think he meant disturbance.
	Or mischief.
	Maybe they meant mischief.
	They're going to lock you up for five months.
	So anyways, they say disruption.
	They then arrest me, take my camera.
	Which I still haven't gotten back to this day.
	They claim they never took it.
	There's footage of them taking it.
	But they took my camera.
	They held me in the back of the cruiser for two hours with cuffs on.
	And then they drove me off and dumped me on the side of the road.
	They didn't contact parents.
	They didn't contact anybody.
	They just dumped me on the side of the road and told me not to go back.
	And then they give me this...
	I failed to leave premises charge, a trespassing charge.
	I was never asked to leave the premises.
	I was arrested on a public crosswalk.
	And so the entire arrest was a joke.
	And then they stole my $600 in camera equipment.
	So I've gone to the police station multiple times to try to get that back.
	They say they don't have it.
	They actually phoned my dad for some reason instead of me and said that my trespassing charge had been dropped.
	And it was a mistake that they gave me a failed delete premises charge.
	And that's where that's at.
	All right.
	Okay.
	Now, I know you have to go in a few minutes.
	Two questions.
	What are you going to do to complete your education?
	Not that some people think it's worth anything more than the paper it's written on.
	And what do you envision for the future of your life if you're able to see that far ahead?
	What's your plan for the short and long-term future?
	And what is your feeling about what is going on in Canada right now?
	And more specifically, what some might feel to be an outright, shameful, adults-picking-on-a-kid persecution of you?
	Well, I have a couple different plans for education.
	I do want to get my diploma.
	Obviously, I hit a bit of a speed bump, but I think I should be able to get it, whether I take online learning or whatever.
	But I do plan to get my diploma.
	As far as my future in activism, I don't know where it will end up.
	What I do know is that our government, and not just our government, I think.
	I mean, anybody involved in this globalist agenda recognizes that young people are quite a threat, especially a young person with some sort of influence and just a sense of morality.
	So I do plan to continue to speak out against what I feel is wrong, and I'm not going to be silenced by the faculty or the, I mean, anybody who...
	Wish to punish me for standing up for what I believe in.
	It doesn't scare me.
	I don't really care.
	My boldness, my courage, and my beliefs are more important than the consequences that get thrown at me by this system.
	So I'm certainly not going to stop.
	Incredible.
	And people are going to say you're wise beyond your years, but it is weird just seeing a young person.
	With a half-functioning brain and more courage than 90% of politicians out there, do you have aspirations for politics?
	I've considered it.
	I don't really know.
	Politics is a dirty game.
	I don't like politics very much, but I just got off the phone with my local member of parliament, or my provincial member of parliament, and he just...
	Completely blew me off.
	Said that it wasn't his responsibility to speak out against these issues.
	And so that's certainly not something I'd want to get into.
	If I was going to be a politician, I certainly wouldn't be playing by a party whip or anything like that.
	I'd be standing up for what I believe in.
	But, I mean, that's difficult to do, especially in Canada.
	But we'll see.
	And there's an intelligent comment in our Rumble chat from DVR Downmark who says, Josh, when you turn 18, be careful because then they might not let you off with some of these charges and it's going to be a much more vigorous battle against you and the ideology of logic and rational thought that you expose.
	Where can people find you and how can they support you?
	Yeah, you can donate to my Liberty Defense Fund.
	Or my Legal Defense Fund at LibertyCoalitionCanada.com.
	There's a petition you can sign there too.
	And then just for my organization, we have a give, send, go.
	And then you can find me on social media.
	I mainly use Twitter, but I have Instagram and Facebook too.
	But my Twitter is officialjosh__a.
	But most importantly, just get the word out there.
	There's not many people that are willing to take this stand, but it's certainly happening.
	There's been a rise in the resistance towards this gender ideology that's being pushed, and it's happening in both Canada and the States, and we need to keep that fire going to make some change.
	All right, man.
	Flip me all of your links.
	I'll put them in the pinned comment on both Rumble and YouTube.
	Josh, let's stay up.
	Keep us up to date.
	If anything else new happens, we're in touch, so let me know.
	Thank you very much.
	And I'll dare say this.
	Thanks for being a good role model for kids.
	Some of the stuff we see younger people doing right now, what is being valorized and glamorized is not necessarily what is good and righteous and fulfilling lifestyles, life behavior.
	But Josh, thank you for setting a good example.
	Thank you.
	All right.
	Have a good one.
	See you soon.
	God bless.
	All right, bye-bye.
	Everybody, Josh Alexander.
	Holy crab apples.
	Let me just get this camera going.
	I'm going to get to the Rumble Rants because I did see one that I specifically want to get to.
	Okay, now it's...
	Look at me.
	Follow me, camera.
	There we go.
	There we go.
	I'm going to get to the Rumble Rants and then we're going to see...
	Oh, I have a full list of...
	Chapters.
	What are they called?
	Links.
	I've got a full list of links.
	We're going to see if there's been any news in the Donald Trump.
	Apparently, former president enters a plea agreement at hearing.
	Indictment unsealed.
	People were going to get stuff done in real time because there's news on the Donald Trump.
	The indictment of President Trump.
	People, Democrats, are only going to do it this one time.
	Hold on one second.
	Now the camera is going to follow me.
	Oh, great.
	Now it's going to see.
	Oh, come on.
	Get you stupid thing.
	Get over here.
	Come here.
	Oh, for the love of goodness.
	Come on.
	Over here.
	Look over here.
	Follow me, camera.
	Oh, we'll get it.
	There we go.
	Follow me.
	There you go.
	Look at that.
	My hair is all...
	Also, not in its best form because I brushed it and washed it yesterday.
	Come here.
	There we go.
	That's it.
	I'm downloading the app so that this doesn't happen anymore.
	Before we get into any of that, I'm late to do it, but you might have noticed that this stream said contains paid promotion because it does.
	And it is, once again, a product that I have literally right next to me, Field of Greens.
	I'll show you that box in a second once I just pull up the website, which is far more beautiful than...
	Here we go.
	They've launched a new product called Lean Weight Loss, or as I like to say, Lean Weight Loss.
	Fieldofgreens.com, they make, in addition to stuff that helps with losing weight, stuff that helps with just keeping healthy.
	Not an extract, not a supplement.
	Desiccated, powdered greens, fruits and vegetables.
	USDA organic because it's a food, it's approved.
	It is, where does it say it?
	American International Certified.
	That was not what I was looking for.
	I was looking for...
	Oh, it said Made in America somewhere in here.
	And yeah, it's good stuff.
	One spoonful is one serving of fruits and vegetables.
	Most people don't know you're supposed to have five to seven servings of fruits and vegetables a year, a year, a day.
	Most people don't do it.
	Most people sit there in the afternoon, suck back a Red Bull or some nasty Coke or Diet Coke when they should be doing something healthy.
	Getting your fruits and veggies, the antioxidant power of powdered fruits and vegetables.
	If you're into the weight loss thing that I have to see how that works exactly, but I know how it works.
	It invigorates the immune, not the immune system, but the metabolism.
	It causes you to lose calories.
	And if you drink that instead of eating a disgusting McDonald's burger, good things happen.
	If you go to...

	Let me see here.
	It says on the side.

	Booyah.
	Fieldofgreens.com.
	Promo code VIVA.
	Link is in the description.
	Thank you very much to the company, to the product, and to a healthier living.
	Now, before we go on with anything, I'm going to bring up the Rumble Rants.
	The Rumble Rants.
	Which I have not yet brought up.
	There's a specific one that I want to address.
	Let's start from the beginning.
	Uncle Kenny.
	At least 50% of Canada respects what you do.
	That's for Josh.
	Keep it up, at least.
	I think more.
	But they need to get vocal or at least not shy.
	Bear Lamb says there's no such thing as climate change, only people who want the money for climate change.
	Well, there is such thing as climate change.
	The climate is constantly changing.
	Pollution is bad and we should not pollute.
	Steve Vale or Steve Vai 17. How come there's zero coverage of the National Citizens Inquiry.ca?
	Not you, not Rebel News.
	Steve Vai 17. Can we sue CBC for not covering the National Inquiry.ca?
	We the people pay CBC their over 56,000 signatures to start that important inquiry.
	Zero coverage of the media.
	This is the problem.
	In terms of the coverage of the National Citizens' Inquiry, it's a long process that lasts entire days.
	And so what would the coverage look like?
	You're not going to get people live streaming commentating on that.
	You will get people covering it, and I will cover it on a sporadic basis because eight hours of coverage a day, I mean, even when the commission for the inquiry, the Public Order Emergencies Commission, you couldn't cover that day in and day out every day.
	It would have just...
	Tune people out and turn people off, not in terms of viewership, just in terms of the impossibility to cover it.
	Nationalcitizeninquiry.ca, everybody should watch it.
	They've been trying to snip and clip and post highlights and shorter sections of speeches and presentations, which will certainly increase public consumption.
	And I will do a better job more frequently addressing it.
	And I think I might, now I'm speaking out loud, have Chisholm come back on to tell us what's been going on.
	I don't think there's any sinister reason for not covering it.
	I think it's a practical difficulty in covering something that lasts all day, every day, for months on end, or that's going to extend for an extended period of time.
	Kenzie67.
	Viva, I am streaming by Zoom the court case against the use of the Emergencies Act.
	Shouldn't you be covering a law case?
	LOL.
	Josh has our respect.
	Yeah, I cover a lot of stuff.
	Long Meadow, you might be in a video game.
	Google Larry Parker Far Cry 5 pick.
	This is pretty cool.
	Okay, those are the rants.
	Thank you for the support.
	And by the way, you might have noticed people with a little whale in their name, like Uncle Kenny.
	Let me see where I can find that.
	Uncle Kenny in the chat has a whale on his name.
	So does Kenzie67.
	And you can see it right there in the chat.
	So apparently if you...
	Rumble has rolled out things like members that you have on YouTube so you can become a monthly supporter on Rumble.
	And if you do that, you get the little badge for the channel that you're supporting.
	So it's like they have Rumble Rants, which are like the Super Chat YouTube equivalent.
	And now they have, I think they call them subscription badges, which is like the membership that they have on YouTube.
	Except Rumble for 2023 is giving all of that to the creator.
	And even when they take a certain proportion, it's still better than what YouTube does.
	And that little pesky thing that Rumble actually respects free speech.
	Okay, people.
	Let's get the...
	And I'm going to have to go to Fox News and then I'm going to see if I can find the PDF of...
	if I could see the PDF of the PDF of the PDF of the PDF of the PDF Okay, hold on, hold on.
	I'm going to share this screen here.
	Fox News is reporting that Trump is facing 34 charges and that they've unsealed the indictment.
	So let's just see if I can get to former president, please not guilty.
	Is this what we're looking at?
	This is what we're looking at, people.
	Let's catch up on the madness.
	Trump faces 34 felony charges for falsifying business records, pleads not guilty in Manhattan court.
	Now, how do I go?
	Here we go.
	Here we go.
	That noise is just going to get distracting.
	I don't think anything's happening other than a live shot of cops not doing anything and not in general just now.
	The charges against former President Trump, I'm learning this for the first time right now, have been revealed after he was arraigned on Tuesday.
	Trump faces 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree.
	Sounds very serious.
	It's like murder in the first degree.
	Except he murdered those documents.
	He falsified the business records like murder in the first degree.
	He pleaded not guilty before the state court justice, Juan Merchant.
	We're going to see about this judge in a few seconds.
	Last Thursday, Trump was indicted.
	Okay, we got that.
	Trump, the first former president in U.S. history to face criminal charges, traveled to New York on Monday for his arraignment in Manhattan on Tuesday.
	Trump lashed out of the unfair court venue out of the arraignment, as well as the judge presiding over the case.
	He also suggested he should be moved to nearby Staten Island.
	Okay, so 34. Do we get a copy of the indictment?
	Let me see if I can go find a copy of the indictment.
	Real quick-like.
	We're going to go to...
	I've got a bunch of wonderful takes on YouTube, wonderful clips on YouTube to look at.
	And let me just share here.
	Who is Judge Juan Merchant?
	Which fake news do we want to get it from first?
	Let's go with AP.
	Who is Juan Merchant, the New York judge, handling Trump's case?
	His caseload has featured charged against former President Donald Trump's company and some of Trump's closest associates in business and politics.
	Well, that sounds fair.
	There's nothing to see there.
	Now Judge Juan Manuel Marchand is poised to take the historic hush money prosecution of Trump himself.
	Wow.
	I mean, it's a joke.
	The degree to which they're not ashamed to make this look like a Stalin-esque show trial.
	It's a joke.
	Other than the prosecution itself, the indictment itself, they're using the judge who has presided in other cases prosecuting Trump allies, Trump companies, and now Trump himself.
	But it's going to be a totally fair trial.
	It will please the frothing-at-the-mouth rabid Michael Rappaport's of the world.
	Yeah, Merchant, a former prosecutor with 16 years on the bench, is expected to preside Tuesday over the unprecedented arraignment of a former U.S. commander-in-chief.
	Trump will appear to answer charges arising from a grand jury investigation into payments made during his 2016 campaign to bury allegations that he had extramarital sexual encounters.
	Of course, nobody knew that Trump had extramarital affairs.
	Stephen King came out the other day.
	Stephen King came out the other day and said, do I need to remind the MAGA Trumpers that Trump had an extramarital affair?
	I was like, that's...
	That's great.
	Do I need to remind you that Bill Clinton inserted a cigar into the vagine of a White House intern in the Oval Office and was stooping her, apparently in the Oval Office, while he was president, and that she was a rather young intern, and he was president of the United States, and one is extramarital, and I don't give a crap what two consenting adults do, but the other one, in most workplaces, is borderline workplace sexual harassment, if not worse.
	Need I remind you of that?
	You lunatic, Stephen.
	I don't think he knew that.
	So he's been indicted.
	Now the question is, can we find a copy of the indictment?
	Let's see this here.
	Give me two seconds, people.
	I'm going to see if I can find this.
	Trump indictment PDF.
	Oh, it's here.
	It's here, people.
	No, this is the Trump Corporation.
	Yeah, I don't think this is the right one.
	Hold on.
	Chad, do you know where the indictment is?
	Let's see this.
	This one does not look like it could be the right one.
	Trump indicted four days ago.
	Images.
	News.
	Hmm.
	People, has the indictment been...
	They said it's unsealed.
	Let me go to Rumble and see...
	Or actually, I'll go to vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
	Locals, where everyone is above average, has the PDF of the indictment been released yet?
	Go to Bragg's website.
	That's from Diva Marie.
	So until we know if the indictment has been...
	Until we know if the indictment has been released, let's, for the time being, get that camera down here.
	Let's just go to some of the wonderful...
	I saw Michael Rappaport posted something that said, we ran this little infected animal.
	This is how Michael Rappaport talks about other human beings.
	Now, I haven't seen the video yet, but I'm sure it's going to be peaceful, loving.
	Much like the way the tolerant left passes them off to me.
	They are the loving people who tolerate.
	Oh, they don't love Nazis, though.
	They don't love bigots.
	Archery!
	You animal, you!
	Go back to the farm, you animal!
	They're looking for you at the sanctuary!
	You filthy animal!
	You QAnon lunatic!
	Hit her with the space lasers!
	Get the fuck out of New York, you racist, sick, filthy, infected animal!
	Get the fuck out of here!
	That's Michael Rappaport.
	You sick, infected animal.
	I've got to...
	Do you know who else referred to people as infected animals?
	You know who else referred to people as infected animals who could risk spreading disease?
	Michael Rappaport, who I only recently found out himself is Jewish.
	That's right, Michael Rappaport.
	The actual Nazis of history referred to a certain group of people as infected animals to justify the genocide on the basis that it was for public health.
	It was for the greater good.
	Have to get rid of them, otherwise they're going to, you know...
	They refer to that group as infected animals.
	It's quite ironic to hear Michael Rappaport rejoicing in violence intolerance while hurling slurs which once upon a time were used under very different circumstances.
	Oh my goodness.
	So this is the news, people.
	I go to Los Angeles for an interview with PragerU.
	And as I'm on the plane, as you know, my wife messages me and says, Trump's been indicted, Thursday night.
	What a time to go and be somewhat out of the loop.
	The world is going crazy.
	The world is going crazy.
	Now, I came across a very interesting thread from Darth Crypto, a.k.a.
	Jesse Feinberg, Asus's LSATs.
	This is from yesterday, so this is before the news for today, and I don't know that people yet have the indictment, but this is what a lawyer, and from what I understand, I think it's known.
	Let me just make sure that I don't disclose any information that I'm not supposed to.
	Oh, this is Darth Crypto.
	This is not a lawyer.
	This is Darth Crypto.
	Oh, maybe he did pass his office.
	Okay, well, this is Darth Crypto.
	I'm thinking of Crypto Lawyer, who's another account.
	From what I hear, this is the jury charge for a real Donald Trump indictment.
	Falsifying business records in the first degree.
	We've got confirmation of this.
	Requires as another element that it was done to cover up a crime.
	Second degree, a misdemeanor lacking the second element.
	So this is where we heard prior interesting discussion about how they're going to try to trump up this misdemeanor charge to a felony charge on a novel legal theory.
	The attempt to elevate it to a class E felony is solely to get around the statute of limitations clock, which Bragg will argue told, which means it was suspended when Trump was out of state.
	I can provide the case.
	I had a, yeah, appeals.
	OK, fine.
	OK.
	Thank you.
	Let's see.
	A lot of very smart conservatives say this is a play to get him the nominee.
	Okay, whatever.
	So they tried to, they had to prove an intent in order to get to the felony.
	So they can get away from the fact that this is a prescribed, the statute of limitations has expired.
	And it's felony, man!
	It's a felony crime, first degree.
	This is what's happening to Donald Trump.
	The internet is...
	A blaze, because everybody's covering this, even though it's by and large covering a lot of, not dead air, but now that he's gone to court.
	Let's see what the terms of his release were.
	I'm going to go to Fox just because it's the easiest one.
	Plea agreements.
	Do we know what the plea agreement is?
	We got all of this.
	Okay, so we got the charges.
	It doesn't look like we know what the terms of the plea agreement are.
	All right, if anyone in locals, if you happen to know, let me see here.
	All right, but in the meantime, I had some things on the bookmarks that we should talk about here.
	That's what's going on with Trump.
	The left has begun eating the left, although it typically happens in all revolutions.
	What is it?
	Like the god of Saturn, the revolution ends by eating its own.
	Marjorie Taylor Greene, the woman, quoting Michael Rappaport, the infected animal that they so peacefully chased out of town because that's what tolerant non-Nazis do, obviously.
	They chase animal vermin out of town, infected vermin out of town, violently with threats.
	And coercion.
	Marjorie Taylor Greene was on 60 Minutes Sunday night.
	Before they even aired the episode, people were ragging on Leslie Stahl in 60 Minutes saying, how can you dare platform anybody like Marjorie Taylor Greene?
	And things she says that are over the top, like the Democrats are a party of pedophiles.
	I would definitely say so.
	They support grooming children.
	They are not pedophiles.
	Why would you say that?
	Democrats support, even Joe Biden, the president himself, supports children being sexualized and having transgender surgeries.
	Sexualizing children is what pedophiles do to children.
	Wow.
	Okay.
	And things she said.
	The left is now.
	I'm railing against Leslie Stahl for having done the interview.
	They used to respect her, but they platformed trash.
	And that they didn't use it to make her look bad as if that wasn't what they were trying to do.
	As if when they interview people that they are not ideologically aligned with or that they want to make fun of or make look bad, as if they don't find a way to do it with the editing, with the answers.
	I say this.
	If Marjorie Taylor Greene is as much of a raging lunatic as the left say she is, Give her the biggest bullhorn imaginable.
	They're going to say, no, no, because she's only, she won't, we all know she's crazy, but she's going to reach impressionable people who might be motivated to violence, motivated to believe her beliefs.
	So we have to shut her down.
	We already know she's a lunatic.
	She's not going to tell us anything we don't know.
	We've got to prevent other people who might agree with her from hearing her.
	That is the argument.
	And it's one that they're always going to use because it's absolutely preposterous.
	And it's a good excuse to silence people.
	Now, what did I bring this one up for?
	Oh, yeah, yeah, just people.
	Talking about the fact that we haven't entered the full realm of a banana republic.
	We're not Stalin, Russia.
	We're not Nazi Germany.
	Because we're not as bad.
	We're not quite doing...
	We're not going to the same degree.
	We didn't hit the ball 350 yards, but we're still playing golf, people.
	Apparently, they're trying to subpoena Secret Service agents.
	When was this from?
	In the Mar-a-Lago documents.
	It's not a banana republic.
	They just want to subpoena the Secret Service agents of the president in the Mar-a-Lago.
	Let's hear what they have to say here.
	Multiple Secret Service agents connected to former President Donald Trump's security detail have been subpoenaed by Special Counsel Jack Smith, according to a source familiar with the situation.
	The subpoena is a part of Smith's investigation into the handling of classified information at his Mar-a-Lago estate after leaving the White House.
	The agent's testimony is expected in the next few weeks.
	The development was first reported by Fox News.
	Oh, ABC's reporting Fox News now.
	Special counsel declined to comment to ABC News.
	Following Trump's decision to seek a second term as president, the special counsel was appointed in November by Attorney General Merrick Garland to investigate both the handling of classified information at the former president's residence and efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
	Among these previously subpoenaed by Smith are former Vice President Mike Pence, former Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, and Attorney Evan Cochran.
	It's not a banana republic.
	It's just justice people.
	In a country where...
	And this goes as much for Canada as it does for the United States, where they've desecrated attorney-client privilege, solicitor-client privilege.
	They now want Secret Service to testify.
	They want to subpoena the Secret Service just to get to the bottom of the mishandling of classified documents.
	But not Joe Biden.
	Now, here is where it's going to be a win-win to some extent for the administrative state, or as other people like to call it, the deep state.
	I say it's going to be a win-win for them in that either they're just going to apply the same double standards or hierarchy and go after Trump to the fullest extent of a banana republic and not do the same to Joe Biden, who had classified documents in his garage, among other places, and has not arguably but definitively more questionable business dealings, quid pro quos, corruption, potential tax issues, for lack of a better word.
	They either will not go after Joe Biden while weaponizing everything against their ideological adversary, or at some point, they might just go after Joe Biden as well and say, well, we did it to Trump.
	We are the party of law and order.
	Now we're going to do it to Biden.
	Get him out so we can replace him with another useful idiot.
	It is the wholehearted, real-time, full-throttle destruction of...
	Law and order, if it ever existed, but I'm now more inclined to think that it never actually existed, despite what we all thought.
	But it's in your face, so much so now, that, like I quoted Ayn Rand to someone on Twitter, like, trying to explain the obvious to someone who's decided not to see it, there's nothing more difficult than doing that.
	People don't understand.
	Jack Posobiec, Charlie Kirk, they're not being hyperbolic when they're saying that this is A Rubicon has been crossed.
	I don't know the origins of that expression.
	We've crossed a Rubicon from which I don't know how you ever come back.
	You're indicting a former president on a novel legal theory to trump up falsifying business records to a felonious charge, a felony charge, as opposed to a misdemeanor, which itself would have been beyond the statute of limitations.
	No one is above the law.
	By the way, the whole falsifying business records, as far as I understand as well, is predicated on an underlying crime.
	It has to be predicated on an underlying crime, lest I presume it just be a tax issue.
	If you say this dinner was a business dinner when it actually wasn't, I don't know that that's felony.
	Falsifying business records.
	I don't know it is because it's not based on an underlying crime.
	It might just be, oh, you couldn't have claimed that for tax purposes, now pay up with interest and penalties as the IRS does.
	Applying a novel theory to open the floodgates.
	This is the dude at the barbecue who's had 12 beers and he's been holding off peeing.
	And now he's peed once and the gates have been broken.
	They've done it now.
	They're going to try to do it in Georgia.
	Barnes and I have our disagreement on this, and I know that Barnes is smarter and better fit to make predictions on this, but my prediction is that this is going to act as the opening of the floodgates to charges elsewhere.
	Grand juries are going to feel empowered to indict ham sandwiches and to indict Donald Trump, Georgia on the election stuff, Washington on the insurrection stuff.
	I think this has opened the floodgates to that.
	But to get that floodgate opened...
	You've got a George Soros indirectly funded district attorney, Alvin Bragg, indirectly funded because George Soros gives that million dollars to a PAC, Political Action Committee, called Color of Change, who then highly endorses and assists in Alvin Bragg's re-election.
	You get a George Soros-backed DA coming up with a novel legal theory to indict a former president because they say...
	When he told Cohen this is a business expense, it was actually a hush money payment because everyone thought that Donald Trump, who was on his third marriage, was a preacher, the son of a preacherman.
	The floodgates have been opened and we're seeing the destruction of...
	If it's not the destruction of law and order itself, it's the destruction of the semblance, if any was left, that anyone had.
	It's obvious.
	The left are reveling in this.
	They're having a public orgasm over this.
	But the extent of their public orgasm is proportionate to the degree to which they know this is preposterous.
	Um.
	Thank you.
	So they know it's preposterous, but they just love it for the time being because it's their team that's doing it.
	Or will never come back to bite them in the ass.
	The frothing rage.
	I had a very dark thought.
	It was a dark thought, not a dirty thought.
	It was a bad dream that I actually had.
	This whipping up of the general public into a Michael Rapoportian frothing rage.
	There are idiots out there like Michael Rappaport, frothing at the mouth people who do it for social media and who do it for whatever.
	Maybe they genuinely believe in it, but maybe they don't.
	Whether or not they do or do not genuinely believe in it, you know that they have limits to their madness.
	They'll post a video of them saying, You've infected an animal!
	Get the fuck out of here!
	They'll post videos of themselves saying that, but there are other people out there who will watch those videos.
	And who lack, potentially lack, the good sense or the good judgment, or who they know can be whipped into a frenzy to go one step further.
	And then you get those people to go one step further, and others who see that themselves are going to say, one step further.
	And I had a very dark thought that the media whipping up their base into a rabid, frenzied rage can cause people to do the most evil of things, thinking that they're doing the most righteous of things.
	The political permission slip.
	So part of it says, like, my goodness, they just want to get Trump into New York, publicly expose him, no pun intended, and metaphorically and physically speaking, and whip people up to do something bad.
	Maybe someone does something bad to Trump.
	Maybe someone in the crowd does something bad to police.
	Get someone.
	It's...
	V for Vendetta in real life.
	Get somebody just to do something to make things...
	The powder keg literally explode.
	And then the media will win.
	The government will win.
	They'll get to push further demonizing and criminalizing of ideological opposition.
	It's almost done by design.
	But then I'm watching...
	I'm watching...
	Where was this broadcast?
	This is Jack Posobiec who tweeted...
	Let me just get his tweet.
	There is no coming back from this.
	America is forever changed.
	And this is Trump's convoy seemingly heading to either the airport.
	It says West Palm Beach, Florida.
	So I don't know if they're going to the airport to go to Florida.
	Either way.
	They would helicopter from whatever airport they're landing at, LaGuardia, JFK, any of the airports around New York City, helicopter to avoid the traffic and the jams and go to one of the landing zones in New York City in Manhattan.
	But this time we're told, as Dasha Burns reported, that he's going to be actually driving in on Grand Central Parkway in from LaGuardia, which is very close into the city, as you know.
	They would helicopter from whatever airport they're landing at.
	You've got the media.
	It said...
	Did it say...
	I thought it was live.
	But you got the media, like, almost literally in real time, if it wasn't real time.
	Identifying the location of the president.
	I mean, I guess when you see a black convoy, it could be any number of things, but people might know what it was, but they're whipping the public into a rage on both sides, although we've seen that even when it gets to insurrection levels, it's still people holding flagpoles with a spear on it and not other things that we've seen.
	It's almost like they are hoping this escalates into something more than what it's already escalated to, which is, according to many, a Rubicon that cannot be uncrossed.
	Okay, it's atrocious.
	Let me see in Rumble what we have going on here.
	Michigan Winter Day says, the start of legal warfare if we already have not started.
	Deplorable 767 says, the only thing they're exposing is how criminal they are and that they can continue to get away with it.
	There's no question about that.
	Now, hold on.
	I had some more stuff in the backdrop.
	Do we take a little break from...
	Do we take a little break from this?
	Oh, Mayor Adams.
	Hold on.
	This is why.
	Mayor Adams, listen to this.
	As they beat you, they tell you to be quiet.
	As they desecrate the very country in which you live.
	Justin Trudeau was very good at this as well.
	As they destroy the world around you, they tell you not to complain about it.
	Listen to this.
	Is he talking to Michael Rappaport?
	Of course not.
	Because the brown shirts are not misplaced anger.
	The brown shirts are useful tools.
	Your misplaced anger.
	That the...
	The constitutional republic that you grew up in, the free country that you inherited from people who stormed the beaches of Normandy under the hail of gunfire from actual Nazis, as they burn that country to the ground in the name of retaining power, behave yourself.
	And he is right, by the way.
	But nobody needs Mayor Adams lecturing you on behaving yourself while they systematically destroy.
	Everything you once knew of a free and democratic society.
	Everybody has to stay peaceful and has to avoid violence because they will use any violence, real or manufactured, legitimate or agent provocateur, existing or non-existing violence, they will use that to further abuse, to further violate rights, to further snatch the freedom, not just from your present, but from the future of your children.
	And so you have to, because otherwise you give them every excuse, every pretext, every justification in the world to continue doing even worse.
	What's the solution?
	Gathering the lions and waking people up so that they see this, and so that even the people who think they support it now will understand that they might not support it in the future.
	That famous poem, at first they came for the union workers, but I didn't say anything because I wasn't one of them.
	You think this stops at Trump?
	First of all, DeSantis has now woken up.
	This doesn't stop at Trump.
	This will not stop at DeSantis.
	This will be the M.O. for every single Republican candidate going forward.
	In the same way the destruction of nominees for the Supreme Court, which started with Clarence Thomas, last-minute accusations of sexual harassment, last-minute accusations of sexual improprieties, the, as Justice Thomas put it, The digital lynching in real time will just become the new MO.
	This is now the new MO.
	And it's not to say that Trump is innocent of potential wrongdoings.
	The old expression is, if a cop follows anybody for 500 miles, they're going to get a ticket.
	There's no doubt.
	Lavradia Baria, whatever.
	You know who I'm talking about.
	Baria.
	The famous communist expression.
	Show me the man, I'll show you the crime.
	There is no one on Earth.
	That you couldn't find a crime if you dissected enough of their life, however minor or however major, and then even if you can't find one, you can just literally make one up out of whole cloth and force them to prove their innocence, according to Nancy Pelosi.
	Randy Hillier, the member of provincial parliament in Ontario, did not assault any police officer.
	He just didn't do it.
	Doesn't prevent the police from saying he did.
	He just didn't do it.
	The video's there.
	It just never happened.
	Doesn't matter.
	Hold on.
	That's right.
	We were talking about Eric Adams.
	Behave yourselves.
	You animals.
	Behave yourselves.
	We are the safest large city in America because we respect...
	The rule of law in New York City.
	And although we have no specific threats, people like Marjorie Taylor Greene, who is known to spread misinformation and hate speech, she stated she's coming to town.
	While you're in town, be on your best behavior.
	As always, you are not allowed...
	Can you imagine a man taking to the public airwaves to tell a woman, unless I misunderstood.
	Be on your best behavior.
	That is what he said, right?
	Or was he talking to his supporters?
	On your best behavior.
	Misinformation and hate speech.
	She stated she's coming to town.
	While you're in town, be on your best behavior.
	As always, we will not allow violence or vandalism of any kind.
	And if one is caught participating in any act of violence, they will be arrested and held accountable.
	No matter who you are, maybe some rabble-rouser.
	The same city that is enacting, implementing the most open-door, revolving-door bail reform ever.
	My goodness, they found a way to come down hard on rabble-rousers.
	But I just love the fact, we're the safest large city in America.
	I'd like to know what that...
	This is from, by the way, everything is just...
	A bloody joke.
	Everything is the onion.
	Read this headline.
	Major crimes rose 22% in New York City, even as shootings fell.
	Thank you!
	They're no longer shooting you, they're just stabbing you and beating you.
	It's just, major crimes rose 22% in New York City.
	That's bad.
	Even as shootings fell.
	That's good.
	You still got assaulted.
	That's bad.
	But it wasn't with a gun.
	That's good.
	Homicides fell last year to their lowest level since 2019.
	Wow.
	Congratulations.
	Before the pandemic, but other categories of crime, including robbery and burglary, drove the overall increase compared with 2021.
	And just call me a bit of a skeptic.
	I have a feeling that they found creative ways to address violence.
	I do wonder how many of those homicides were attributed.
	How many of the homicides that they lowered this year were attributed to COVID deaths?
	I'm cynical, but my goodness.
	No matter how cynical you get, it's tough to keep up with Lily Tomlin.
	Behave, woman.
	You come into my town, don't open up that mouth of yours.
	Behave, woman.
	That's right.
	You're the one who spreads misinformation and disinformation.
	We're the safest large city in America, even though major crimes are up 22%, but shootings are down.
	Mamacita.
	Oh.
	All right.
	What else do we have?
	Oh, boy.
	I should have started with this.
	Some people are saying ignore Dylan Mulvaney, ignore Bud Light.
	First of all, I've ignored Bud Light my entire life and I plan on continuing.
	Everyone says their attention goblins.
	Their attention goblins like trolls.
	Ignore them and they go away.
	I prefer the other philosophy, which is mock that which deserves to be mocked into oblivion.
	There's a reason why court jesters were particularly effective throughout history.
	There's also a reason why the king would impose the harshest punishments on jesters that went a little too far and that brought the absurdity of the king a little bit too much to the attention of the public.
	So I prefer the publicized to make everyone aware of what's going on.
	People thought it was an April Fool's joke because the news was that Bud Light had teamed up with transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney, a fully intact biological male.
	And some people say, stop using the word biological male, because by qualifying male as biological, you're playing into the gender game that there can be a non-biological male.
	There's a point to be made in that argument.
	Is there any context in which someone would be a non-biological male?
	I guess not.
	Dylan Mulvaney is an intact male.
	Has teamed up with Bud Light.
	As if anybody drinks this swill in the first place.
	I can understand why people like Bud Light because it'll get you drunk and it has few calories or less calories.
	Even Dylan Mulvaney, actor extraordinaire, cannot make drinking Bud Light look pleasant.
	Look at this.
	Go, team.
	Whatever team you love, I love too.
	Okay.
	Okay.
	Go, team.
	Whatever team you love...
	By the way, a number of people are pointing out that that can looks to be empty.
	I love too.
	Look at the face.
	Okay.
	Oh, God.
	I'm going to drink this.
	Oh!
	Oh, this is torture.
	Okay.
	Go, team.
	Whatever team you love...
	Now I'm torn.
	I think that can is empty.
	And if that can is empty, how can it taste terrible?
	Joe Dirty says, unfortunately, I know someone who drinks that piss water.
	Well, my late father-in-law used to drink Pabst Blue Ribbon all the time.
	It's a light beer, low caloric intake, but it has the stuff that people like in beer.
	Yeah, so that's it.
	Now, let me see here.
	I'm going to go to home on Twitter and just see if there's been any news here.
	Thank you.
	Okay, there's a good picture.
	Breaking.
	First image released of Trump inside the Manhattan courtroom.
	And Trump, as one of his sons has pointed out, is looking boss.
	Let's see this here.
	Oh, Mamacita.
	So what do we have?
	It's Tuesday today.
	Oh, Carrie Lake.
	We have to postpone for obvious reasons.
	I hope I...
	It was looking like it might, it was possibly going to work perfectly where we were going to go from one interview to the next, but it didn't work out.
	That is the first image of Trump in the courtroom.
	The bleeding heart Democrats, bail reform, criminal justice reform, peace-loving liberals, Democrats, they were angry they didn't get cuffs and a perp walk, from what I understand.
	Yeah.
	Okay.
	Everybody.
	Let's end it and go over to Rumble.
	Not to Rumble, to Locals exclusively.
	I think we've covered everything.
	But we'll cover some more stuff that I haven't covered here in Locals.
	I'm going to give everybody the Locals link so you can mosey on over if you are so inclined.
	Tomorrow's Wednesday.
	It's going to be a good week.
	Stay tuned.
	Stick around.
	But I'm going to end on Rumble.
	I'm going to play us out with...
	My most recent Viva family video.
	My wife and I, while we were in LA, we went to Vegas for a family thing, and I did a hike in Red Rock.
	Okay, hold on a second.
	Actually, there's one Rumble Ramp before we go.
	It's Kenzie67, who's got a whale hump.
	Hold on, let's bring this up here.
	Kenzie 67. Kenzie67 says, Canada lawyers are using the same talking points as an inquiry using kids' shields, traffic jams, and economic disruptions.
	Meanwhile, we are hearing constitutional and other legal points from the plaintiffs.
	Okay, thank you very much, Kenzie.
	And Kenzie, as you can see here, has the little whale.
	That's the subscription badge.
	So Kenzie, thank you very much.
	DVR Downmark says, thanks again, Viva, for the live stream.
	My pleasure.
	Not just my pleasure.
	It's my obligation.
	But it's also my pleasure.
	Now, I'm going to play the video.
	I have a second channel on Rumble, which some people don't know, but it's called Viva Random.
	So that's where I'm going to show this from so I don't even play it from YouTube.
	And it's a seven-minute video.
	After that video, I will meet everyone on Locals, where we will continue to carry on for a bit, and I'm going to get a cup of coffee, or my iced coffee, which has been in the freezer for a little while.
	So everybody who's watched on Rumble, Thank you very much.
	It has been nice, glorious to see you.
	And, you know, traveling is wonderful, but coming home is heaven.
	But here's a little piece of heaven that I discovered this 13 years ago, 35 minutes out of Las Vegas.
	Enjoy this.
	There's some amazing GoPro footage in this.
	Mosey on over to vivabarnslaw.locals.com for some continued live streaming exclusive to Locals.
	But enjoy this, and I'll see you all tomorrow.
	Peace out.
	Heaven's Voices by Waymist.
	We're at Red Rock Canyon West through the...
	I'll meet everyone in locals, I'm just gonna go get my coffee.
	...display in the back, but there's no access to the trails, which are right over there.
	Okay, this is cool, it's all nice.
	Okay, the trail access is around the front, out to the right.
	Boring.
	I'm not exactly sure what this stuff is, or if we're allowed climbing on it.
	Okay, no.
	No climbing.
	So it's not a playground.
	Alright.
	Air.
	Live in the sunshine.
	Drink the wild air.
	Waldo.
	What's the dream about this?
	How nuts are used by the native people.
	To eat?
	Because they're packed with amino acids.
	Non-amino acids necessary for life.
	That's fascinating.
	Get your nuts if you can't get your meat.
	Get your nuts if you can't get your meat and you expect me not to laugh at that.
	I literally just said that this was quite boring.
	And then this.
	This is the amphitheater of God.
	Wow.
	The Red Rock Canyon, a dedication to the U.S. with lies behind us and lies ahead of us.
	The tiny, madders are here to apply on the same thing in us.
	There you do.
	What about it?
	Defending freedom, it is wrong to mourn the death of men like these.
	Rather, we should thank God that such men lived.
	General George S. Patton, all gave some, some gave all.
	There's a rabbit.
	There's a rabbit right there.
	Right there.
	Oh, is that cute?
	All right.
	Plane flying up above the sky.
	And we are walking through...
	Red Rock!
	Red Rock on!
	This is totally beautiful.
	Like, totally beautiful.
	I'm gonna run up to the top of those mountains because I need to send a very important text and I'm not getting cell reception.
	And I'm thinking I might get better reception up on top of that mountain with my GoPro up in the air for...
	It'd be funny if he wasn't joking.
	It'd be funny if I wasn't joking.
	I'm not joking.
	Don't get too close to...
	Oh my goodness.
	There's actual trails down there.
	It looks like it goes through the base.
	Look at that.
	The detail.
	So you can have ideas to size.
	Those are people right there.
	It's not quite massive like the Grand Canyon, but it's flipping beautiful.
	And I'm getting up on there.
	Oh, and there's the missus.
	You cannot tell the depth in between these stones given the patterns which look like scratch marks.
	Or paintbrush strokes.
	There's a dude right up there, which is not what I would be doing myself.
	But on the cliff, if you can't see it, rock climbers right there.
	That person looks like they might be having second thoughts.
	We are going to go down onto the bottom and do the tunnels in between.
	I think there's like tunnels in between the carved rock.
	I was hypothesizing that this was all formed in a massive flood when the meteorites struck 75,000 years ago and caused water to flow through the Arizona-Nevada desert.
	We're not in Arizona.
	Nevada desert.
	And carved its way through.
	But I don't know if that's historically, geographically, or remotely accurate.
	Your description is echoing through the valleys.
	Oh, look at this cave.
	Look at this.
	Wow.
	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	There's like a tunnel that goes through here and it's amazing.
	We're gonna try to cross the little river.
	How flipping cool is this?
	Got my coffee.
	GoPro shot coming up right now.
	Boom.
	Well, not now.
	Look at this.
	The GoPro actually captures the amazing.
	Look at that.
	I didn't get far enough into it.
	I didn't want to lose my life physically and marriage-wise.
	Thank you.
	Absolutely beautiful.
	Just have to imagine Mad Viva running through tunnels that have been carved through the millennia with water, rain, and the geological power of nature.
	The better half has indicated that we should probably start heading back.
	I have a theory that we could go all the way back down there, sort of bushwhack a little bit, and then get back onto the trail and bypass everything, or climb down into the...
	Anyway, we're going to go back.
	It's just beautiful.
	It's just beyond words beautiful.
	Thus ends our hike through Calico Hills, Red Rock West, 35 minutes out of Vegas, and it was beautiful.
	I got a little boo-boo.
	Check that out.
	Oh, yeah.
	I was jumping around and hit a cactus.
	All right, we're done.
	Hope you enjoyed it.
	A must-see if you come to the Las Vegas.
	It's just glorious.
	Be forewarned, however, no cell reception.
	Very nerve-wracking.
	In the mountains, you get cell reception.
	What do you say, good?
	Good.
	Okay.
	Nice.
	Hold on.
	Yes, we didn't have to pay for parking.
	We didn't do it because of frugalness.
	We couldn't get in because it was full.
	Reservations to go to the...
	It was full, by the way.
	Yeah, we're done.
	So we walked the next mile and a half to get in.
	Sin City, somewhere over there.
	Behind those mountains.
	Sin, over here.
	Nature and the beauty of nature.
	A lot of whale icons.
	Rumble.
	Sad Wings Raging.
	Lunap.
	Jones Pones.
	Sad Wings.
	Thank you all.
	Okay.
	I gotta close that window.
	No, I guess I opened the wrong window.
	This one?
	Okay.
	We're ending the stream now.
	Jeez, I panicked.
	Okay, good day to you all.
	I will see you all on vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
	Ending on Rumble now.
	Peace.
	All right, now we should be live alone.
	I think we're alone now.
	Let me see.
	Okay, viva!
	We're here.
	Good.
	Hark.
	So, by the way, I left my coffee in the freezer for too long, and now it's just ice.
