Palestine and all over the world, the fight against colonialism and corporations' destruction of the planet are intrinsically negative.
Look at Chevron.
Everyone knows that Chevron is one of the world's biggest planet criminals.
But the oil giant is also fueling Israel's genocide in Palestine.
As Israel bombs hospitals, homes and schools in Gaza, Chevron supplies them with energy from two Israeli-claimed gas fields in the Mediterranean, making millions in the process.
Ending Israel's genocide in Gaza and Israeli apartheid is a climate justice issue.
Israel is destroying Palestinian lives, but also destroying Palestinian lands and resources through its warfare and industries that pollute and destroy the environment.
We cannot stand by and do nothing.
I'm joining Palestinian Global Calls to boycott Chevron.
Together we are calling for Chevron to withdraw from its projects with Israel.
Join the movement to defend human rights and protect the planet by pledging to boycott Chevron now.
I want to highlight this part.
Ending Israel's genocide in Gaza and Israeli apartheid is a climate justice issue.
Can you imagine how deeply offensive that is or should be to people who might actually be the victims caught in the crossfire between a terrorist government of Hamas and Israeli action against that?
Can you imagine?
A lot of people say Palestinians voted in Hamas and you get what you vote for, etc., etc.
And I'm like, you think those elections were free and fair?
You think there was any sort of free method of voting in or voting out Hamas?
Probably not.
Can you imagine being one of the countless people who are in fact caught in the crosshairs of this conflict and hearing this...
I don't use the word privileged.
I would say good fortune.
But to the extent that they use that word, privilege, can you imagine the privileged European trying to hijack the plight of innocent Palestinian people caught in the crosshairs of a war between Israel and a terrorist government and using them for your climate justice nonsense?
Holy hell!
I mean, I'm telling you this, she's going to fall out of grace with the crowd that she thinks she's pandering to, to exploit her climate justice narrative real fast.
Because if anybody had half an iota of dignity and a sense of actual justice, they would say, take your climate justice, Greta Thunberg, and shove it where the sun don't shine.
And Israeli apartheid is a climate justice issue.
Israeli apartheid.
I mean, it set aside all of the talking points.
Now, that's the genius words from Greta Thunberg today.
And it's going to be a theme that's going to come up during today's show because we're living in a world where you cannot tell the difference between parody and reality and where you cannot tell the difference between deepfake parody and reality because they are so darn close.
Y'all remember this?
Maybe you don't.
But if you don't remember this, let's remember this, shall we?
This is...
I won't spoil the punchline.
This is Greta Thunberg.
I will spoil the punchline so nobody accuses me of spreading disinformation.
This is a deepfake.
It was a deepfake, but everyone believed it.
At least a lot of people believed it, despite it being so patently preposterous and inane, but confirmed boy howdy by what Greta Thunberg just said.
Now, this is the parody.
War is always bad, specifically for the planet.
If we want to continue...
Fighting battles, like environmentally conscious humans, we must make the change to sustainable tanks and weaponry.
There are so many new concepts for our battery-powered fighter jets that can carry many more missiles, biodegradable missiles, of course.
Something literally everybody can do to stop this nonsense is, for example, block the roads to gardens and farms so the plants don't get overrun by these heavy, heavy tanks.
Hand grenades.
Very important.
If you use hand grenades, please use vegan grenades.
No animals have to give their life for all this mayhem and chaos.
They have a special sticker on them.
You really can't miss them in the grenade market or wherever you buy them.
Yeah, I cover all of this and more in my newest book, Vegan Wars.
So it was clearly parody, but the problem was...
A portion of it gets shared and people don't know that it's clearly parody because it doesn't go off the absurd end towards the end.
But parody, but true in principle.
Good mic.
Am I on the bad mic?
I'm on the...
Okay, before we move into the intro segment, it's either I use this mic or this mic.
Now, I think I know what everyone's going to say.
I shouldn't have started.
I was trying to use...
I thought maybe it would be less echoey.
Which one was better?
Which mic?
Locals. Let's go here.
This mic, this is the Mac mic, or do I go back?
I don't have my good mic because I'm on the road here.
Or do I go the Insta mic, which is this one.
So Insta mic now.
Default mic.
So let's just do this.
Mac mic.
This is the Mac mic.
Or Insta mic.
I need to see the Insta or Mac.
Insta mic.
And besides which, we finished with our intro.
Good morning, everybody.
Everybody's saying second mic, but I don't know which one of the second mic is anymore.
Mac mic is better.
Default. Fuck Mac.
Okay, that's enough.
We got Insta mic, default mic.
Insta, Insta.
Mac, Mac.
Holy crap, apples.
Well, we're going to go with Mac because I know that it works.
Okay. Good morning.
I mean, it's morning for me.
Holy crap, apples.
First of all, people, traveling, even when it goes smoothly, is very difficult.
And it went smoothly.
No delays.
We had a flight with a television screen in the chair, which was amazing.
I watched Fall Guy.
And I liked it.
I'm telling you something.
I have an affinity.
What's the word I'm looking for?
For Ryan Gosling and Ryan Reynolds.
And Brad Pitt and Ed Norton.
Okay, but that's from Flight Club.
The two movies that I've seen recently that I was surprised that I liked, Deadpool and Fall Guy.
It was actually quite good.
Can't hear you on Mac, Mike.
Okay, we're going back to the instant, Mike.
That's it.
Forget it.
We're done now.
The decision has been made.
So Fall Guy was great.
Deadpool was good.
There was the other one that was a Dracula movie with...
Nicholas Cage, which it had a word, an R in it.
Also kind of a good movie.
So I got to watch Fall Guy, and it was great.
I re-read The Old Man and the Sea, because that's the book review that I'm doing tomorrow.
Oh, Bullet Train.
I watched Bullet Train, TJ McAfee.
I didn't like it.
But the other thing that I watched a documentary while I was on the plane was called 26.2 Miles to Life.
Or was it 26.2 to life?
It was either 26.2 miles to life or 26.2 to life.
And it was about prisoners, inmates at the San Quentin prison in California.
I can take this screen up.
I'm such an idiot.
Sorry. It was about prisoners in San Quentin who try to rehabilitate themselves spiritually, physically, psychologically by running.
They join a thousand mile club and they run marathons and it tracks the story of a number of inmates.
Who have reformed their lives, you know, ostensibly through running.
And it gave a look into the prison system.
It gave a look into like the despair, how people fall into the prison system.
It was actually mildly compelling.
And you see the prison life and it's just, I mean, it's hell on earth.
So I watched that too and that was kind of good.
So we're here now.
I'm in California.
We're going to have something of a road trip.
I'm running a...
Choose your own adventure in our Locals community.
Whether or not we do Death Valley in Vegas, or we do Salt and Sea and Joshua Tree, and I have a feeling I know which way the Locals community is going to go.
But so we're here now, on the road, and trying to keep up with the news, trying to keep up with time zone changes, and the world is going crazy.
So all that to say, good morning, everybody, for my time.
Good afternoon, East Coast.
Share the link around because I set it up kind of late.
And I'm reading the chatter.
Now, before we even get started, Before we get started, we've got to thank our sponsors for today's show, as we always do.
Speaking of learning, a day in which you do not learn is a wasted day.
A day in which you learn is a useful day.
Time is our most precious commodity.
People ask, where do you get your information from and what should I spend my time doing?
Listening, looking at in order to gain knowledge.
It's the gift that once you take it, you can't give it back, and it's fantastic.
That's why I love working with Hillsdale.
It's offering more than 43 online courses in the most important and enduring subjects.
You can learn about the works of C.S. Lewis, who has some amazing quotes and insights on tyranny.
The stories of the book of Genesis.
I've actually gotten into listening to Jordan Peterson summarize biblical stories for me.
I love it.
You can learn about the Constitution.
And, you know, what that shall not be infringed thing kind of means there.
The rise and fall of the Roman Empire, etc., etc., with Hillsdale College online courses.
They're available for free.
That is right.
Free, and they're fantastic.
I personally do recommend them.
Constitution 101, the meaning and the history of the U.S. Constitution.
It's a 12-course lecture that will explore the design and purpose of the Constitution with a capital C people, the challenges it faced during the Civil War, and how it has been undermined for more than a century by progressives and liberalism.
The course is self-paced.
You can start when you want, end when you want, pause when you want, enroll now at Constitution 101.
Our country needs more Americans and perhaps the occasional Canadian who can understand the Constitution and defend the freedom of the American people against the encroachments of an increasingly large and unaccountable government.
Go to hillsdale.edu forward slash viva to enroll.
No cost.
Easy to get started.
hillsdale.edu to register.
Third time's on the charm, people.
hillsdale.edu forward slash viva.
All right.
People, what do we start with here?
We're going to start with on the subject of the deepfakes.
The deepfakes are getting amazing.
Where you will not know what you can believe with your own eyes any longer, and I think we're already there right now.
I see a tweet coming from Defiant L, which if you don't follow he or she, it, on Twitter, you must.
Defiant L's put out a video of Gretchen, the Fed-napping Whitmer, and it said, did she just say, this slaps Hela?
Bro, who is advising these people?
And I watched the video.
I watched this.
Look. Watch this.
We're gonna watch it together.
I'm here with volunteers and they're cooking with gas.
This slaps hella.
My house party just slayed.
I'm calling voters today.
Rizzing them up.
Trump wants to ship union jobs overseas.
Not chill.
This is gas.
Trump wants to cut taxes for billionaires.
I'm leaving the chat.
No, Pam.
I'm Swifty AF.
It's giving the next president.
I'm here with volunteers and they're cooking with gas.
I don't know what that means.
Did she say gas twice?
I think she referenced gas twice.
Yeah. Okay.
All right.
So I see this video and I say I cannot tell if this is deepfake reality and I'm not sharing it until I know.
So I go to Gretchen Whitmer's Twitter feed, people, because this is what you have to do in today's world.
And check it out.
This is from Gretchen Whitmer's certified, verified account.
Live, laugh, elect Kamala Harris.
This is what they think is going to sway people during this election.
This is how they indoctrinate and brainwash voters.
Forget substance.
Forget policy.
Forget Tim, tampon Tim, no balls, walls, saying we can't afford another four years of this, this being the last four years that you've had.
This is from her actual Twitter feed.
I'm here with volunteers and they're cooking with gas.
This slaps Ella.
My house party just slayed.
I'm calling voters today.
Rizzing them up.
Trump wants to ship union jobs overseas.
You get the idea.
Not chill.
Not chill.
This is gas.
Trump wants to cut taxes for billionaires.
I'm leaving the chat.
No cap.
I'm Swifty AF.
It's giving the next president.
I'm here with volunteers.
Rizzing definition.
What does rizzing mean?
It's a slang term to charm or seduce someone or to attract their attention in a romantic or sexual way.
Like, do these idiots...
I got kids.
I knew what rizzing was.
Rizzing is like...
It comes from charisma.
I think it comes from...
I think that's the slang.
I'm not going to ask my kid now, but...
Rizzing comes from charisma.
It's a way that boys try to sex up them girls and say, I'm rizzing them up in a romantic or sexual way.
Gretchen Fednapping plot Quitmer is, in a romantic and sexual way, trying to attract voters.
Can you believe this?
These people are idiots.
They are abject, absolute idiots who are...
2D-level, smooth-bring politics, but it actually, unfortunately, works with a great proportion of the electorate.
Rizzing them up, Gretchen Whitmer.
I wonder if she was rizzing up the people that she was using the feds to entrap in a fed-napping plot to sensitize her and make her more appealing, make her look more like a victim, weaponize it against Donald Trump.
We're going to get into this.
This is the ad campaign that is going to work on Kamala Harris.
If you haven't seen, where's the chart, the most recent chart?
If you believe this, which I don't.
But here's the thing.
I believe a part of it, and I don't believe the substance of it.
Let's get this out of here.
This is coming from Greg Price.
Back in January, Kamala Harris' approval rating was 28%.
It was 32% at the beginning of the summer.
Today, it is allegedly nearly 50%.
What changed?
The media coverage.
So there's two things to this, because on the one hand, I don't believe the stat.
I don't believe it's increased.
I believe it's an absolute lie.
It's an absolute manipulation.
If anybody doesn't know how polls work and how you can falsify them, you basically can find a way, creative, honest, or dishonest, to exclude the results that you don't want in order to fabricate the result that you do want.
And this is sort of a little bit of predictive programming, pre-programming, persuasion, astroturfing, whatever.
Create the illusion of support so that then...
When she wins after they steal, they can say, well, her support was at 50%.
Look at the charts back in September.
I don't believe it for a bloody second.
And then the flip side is that even if it's true, the only reason that this could be true is because we are living through perhaps the greatest psychological operation since 2020 COVID.
We are living through social manipulation from media-running slogans 24-7.
Media running narratives 24-7, brainwashing, MKUltra-level brainwashing, much like what we saw during COVID.
Day in and day out death numbers.
Day in and day out doom and gloom.
Day in and day out leaked videos from China showing people dropping dead in the streets, blowtorching doors shut, to get us to be compliant and fearful of what was coming.
Persuasion. Manufacturing reality and not representing it.
That's what I believe we're witnessing right now.
But even if we're not, and people are this easily swayed in two months, they can say, holy crap, she really figured out how to be president when she stabbed Joe on the back and stole the candidacy.
We are witnessing how malleable public opinion is, how manipulatable people are, and how this operation between government, intelligence, and media is effective at creating something of a, call it a mass formation psychosis or just crowd psychology.
Hey, if everybody's saying that she's good, she must be good.
But this is who they're appealing to by having Gretchen Whitmer run off every slang for the young generation that she can muster up in a 30-second TikTok video because that's the level of respect and appreciation for the intellect of their demographics that they have.
We're going to get into more of the brainwashing when it comes to Donald Trump in a second because what they did yesterday, in my humble view, is nothing shy of...
If you want to talk about criminal, imminent, unlawful incitement, what they did yesterday with Ruth is stunning.
It's stunning.
We're going to get there in a second.
Before we get there, we're going to talk about bettering our minds through education and...
We're going to talk about bettering our bodies through good diet.
And I was told to bring up the QR code because this way you can now go.
If you check out the QR code, it's kind of an amazing technology, although I don't know how it works, that your camera takes a picture of a QR code and then it directs you to a website.
Field of Greens, people.
It's fantastic, delicious stuff.
And it's a little-known fact, by the way, that you're supposed to eat.
A lot of fruits and veggies in the day, and you really appreciate how difficult that is when you get on the road, although I got a decent salad yesterday, but obscene.
Everything is obscenely expensive in California.
Field of Greens, people, is an organic superfood and vegetable drink unlike any other.
It's serious nutrition.
Listen to this.
Field of Greens was activated, was approved for university study that doctors believe may lower your body's biological age.
That genetically generally means better health.
Each fruit and vegetable in Field of Greens was selected by doctors to support vital bodily functions like heart, liver, kidney, metabolism, immune system.
Only Field of Greens is backed by a better health promise.
At your next physical or checkup, your doctor will notice your improved health or your money back.
No questions asked.
First of all, I take it.
It's a spoonful.
It tastes delicious.
If you can't get your fruits and veggies in a day, do this twice a day.

Now you go QR code and look at this.
Yeah. Technology is amazing.
By the way, I'll tell you something here.
This is it.
It actually goes right there once you take a picture of it.
Amazing. The links to our two sponsors for today's show in the description.
Thank you very much.
So, how do I stop screen sharing?
Stop sharing.
There we go.
So, yesterday we were walking Santa Monica.
We're going to maybe go back there and explore the town a little bit.
The homeless situation in LA.
I mean, I didn't even go to Venice Beach yet.
I'm not sure if we're going to go.
It's incomprehensible.
It's unsustainable, and I would dare say it's inhumane.
I mean, at the risk of stating the obvious, the amount of people who are homeless, sleeping on park benches, it's inhumane.
Now, I do appreciate you can't forcibly confine people, and I don't know what the solution is, except to say that there's a massive, massive problem.
Yesterday, I was corrected, by the way.
Somebody came up to me, and it wasn't a crack pipe, because apparently crack is no longer the thing.
It was crystal meth.
And then I googled it when we were having our locals after party.
And yeah, it was crystal meth.
I'd never seen a crystal meth pipe before.
A little sheltered baby I am.
And then I'm having the discussion with my kid about how you can't pick stuff up.
You have to watch out for needles.
And then showed my kid the infamous, famous, outrageous photo of what amount of fentanyl is required to kill an adult.
Potentially lethal dose of fentanyl.
And it's like, A couple of specs next to a penny.
Have you seen this?
Hold on a second.
Fentanyl. Fentanyl.
I don't know how to spell it.
Fentanyl kill adult penny.
Here. Fentanyl kills adult penny.
Images. Yeah, the amount of fentanyl to cause a potential lethal overdose.
I mean, it's the stuff of nightmares.
That is the amount of fentanyl that can potentially cause an overdose in an adult.
And you wonder how we've gotten to a situation where these are drugs that are not just on the street but prevalent on the street and leading to the overdose deaths of, what is it, 100,000 Americans a year?
I had to double-check it just to make sure that I wasn't actually misremembering.
That's it.
And this is the world in which we're living.
You come here and you understand what a failed city looks like.
Homelessness, uncontrolled prices, gas prices through the roof.
Geologically and geographically, it's damn beautiful.
It's amazingly beautiful.
But it's discussion that you have to have with kids.
And they have to understand these things.
And they have to understand what...
What it is, CIA-created superdrugs, and whoever said that's not true, I double-checked.
And if I'm wrong, please correct me, but I double-checked.
That is regarded as a potentially lethal dose.
That's how little it takes.
I forget who was talking about it.
Drug addiction and how today drug addicts don't even get the chance for rehab because of the prevalence and risk of overdose.
You're deprived of the ability to even...
Go to rehab and get healed because of the lethality of the drugs that are pouring through this border where now, finally, Kamala Harris is changing some talking points, build a wall, close up the border, yada, yada, yada.
Oh, holy hell.
So anyways, now speaking of the brainwashing, by the way, people, and speaking of dog whistles, speaking of the media knowing damn well what they're doing, I sort of...
I could not believe what I saw yesterday, but then I came across, you know, it's a work of art.
This is, call this a meme, call this whatever the heck you want.
This is a work of art, a mashup that illustrates perfectly, undeniably and unquestionably what the media is doing, what intelligence is doing, what the DOJ is doing by releasing that Ruth Jackass's letter in which he apologizes for...
Not having succeeded at his mission, in which he offers a bounty.
They know what they're doing.
That's the terrible thing.
And whether or not, if I don't want to argue intentions and they don't know what they're doing, the outcome is the same.
Look at this mashup and appreciate this is exactly as intended or the fortunate, and I say fortunate sarcastically, consequence of what they're doing.
Republicans represented extremism.
That threatens the very foundations of our republic.
Are they a threat to democracy?
Yes. Are they going to take our rights away?
Yes. Are they going to put people's lives in danger?
Yes. Are they going to invade the planet by not doing climate change?
Yes. People need to start taking to the streets.
This is a dictator.
I just don't even know why there aren't uprisings all over the country.
Maybe there will be.
She's a genuine danger to America.
You're still going to have to go out and put a bullet in Donald Trump, and that's a fact.
We have to preserve our democracy.
Or speak out against lies and hate.
There needs to be unrest in the streets for as long as there's unrest in our lives.
Have a consistent narrative about how dangerous Trump is.
President Biden has been clear-eyed about the threat that the federal president of the best are.
Donald Trump is an existential threat to our democracy and our most fundamental freedoms.
Kamala needs to stop saying that President Trump is a threat to democracy.
It's now being deceived by some unhinged people as a call to action.
Enough is enough.
Not yet.
Not yet.
And by the way, there's a number of these going around, by the way.
Hilarious. Well, it is true.
TDS causes them all to look late.
E. Jean Carroll and Ryan Ruth don't believe...
Dude, there are a number of side-by-side comparisons.
And there was a funnier one that was saying...
White dudes for Harris with the side-by-side of E. Jean Carroll and Ruth.
So you all know what happened yesterday, and they're releasing the Dear John letter, the love letter written by this psychopath, Ruth, who, if anyone doesn't think that he was motivated by the constant 24-7...
I appreciate it, by the way.
And put the montage together if you want, because I say this a lot.
Alex Jones was on the channel once and said they just run the same play over and over again.
And they ran with the media intelligence government demonizing Trump.
Media intelligence government fear-mongering for COVID.
Media government intelligence.
Fear-mongering for Ukraine.
And it's the same pattern in terms of the brainwashing.
Day in and day out.
Catchphrases. Logos.
Avatars. Change your banners.
Stick in the Ukrainian flag.
Stick in the rainbow.
Stick in the jab.
Stick in the mask.
And they know damn well what they're doing by doing this.
Where was it here?
Look at this.
National Review.
Cancel and cancel.
Okay, here we go.
Listen to this.
They are lionizing a would-be assassin.
They are glamorizing.
They are not lipstick on a pig.
They are lionizing and glamorizing.
Not just this guy, but anybody who would think the same way.
Look at this.
Would-be assassin Ryan Ruth left note declaring plan to kill ex-president months before attempt.
Ryan Ruth, the middle-aged man who allegedly planned to shoot Donald Trump while the former president was playing golf at Mar-a-Lago, allegedly planned.
I guess legally you still need to say allegedly.
He wrote a note to an unnamed person informing them of his plan to kill Trump months before the act.
I want to know who that was.
58. The man suspected of attempting to assassinate Trump on his cell, Florida Gulf, for his pen to letter to the world, quote, to the world, end quote, to be released in the event that his attempt on Trump's life failed.
So understand what we're reading right now.
He wrote a letter to be released to the world in the event that he failed.
And what does the DOJ do?
They do the bidding of the psychopath who would try to murder...
President Trump for him.
He drafted this specifically so that if he failed, it would be a call to arms for the rest of the world to be disclosed if he failed.
And what does the DOJ do?
The bidding of the would-be assassin.
And it sounds like they're getting sort of, you know, not the praise of the National Review, but hey, look, it is what it is.
Justice Department disclosed the note in a memo arguing for Ruth to remain in detention ahead of this trial.
By the way, there's a very interesting theory as to why Ruth is still alive, and it's because state police got him and not Secret Service.
It's a very, very interesting theory.
I don't even want to read it because I feel dirty reading this.
I'm not going to read it.
You can read it right there.
Then you've got the bounty.
They're just doing the bidding.
Of Ruth for him.
And the DOJ is very...
I talked about it yesterday, but I'll just reiterate.
For the amount of time that they refused to disclose the manifesto of the trans kid who shot off the Christian school, the rapidity with which they make all sorts of allegations of white nationalism when any shooter happens to be white, weaponized concealment and weaponized disclosure.
Ruth went on to warn that Trump is...
By the way, And after they do all of this, National Review goes on to repeat the very same talking points.
Go back to that video that we just watched.
The meme.
It's a great meme.
I don't know if it's called a meme.
Go back.
Go back to that.
Somebody opening the door.
Go back and watch that.
Appreciate the catchphrases, the mottos, the slogans, the brainwashed through repetition.
And now read this paragraph.
Ruth went on to warn that Trump is, quote, morally unfit.
To be president.
Where have we heard that?
Where have we heard that, by the way?
Morally unfit to be president.
I mean, everywhere?
Yeah, look at this.
We'll come back to it.
No, we're going to do it right now.
Morally unfit to be president.
Where did we hear that?
Ex-FBI chief James Comey says Trump morally unfit to be president.
Oh, well, somebody heard you, Comey.
Ruth heard you.
Repetition. He got it.
He's the joker staring at the screen, listening to the media, telling him what to think.
Morally unfit to be president and suggested that the entire world believes this much.
Well, it's very interesting.
James Comey was telling the world what to think.
Ex-FBI chief has now had his words repeated by the would-be assassin.
And National Review goes out and lies.
The rhetoric is consistent with Ruth's self-published manifesto.
It's also consistent with the ex-FBI and others who said the same thing, where he urged Iran to kill Trump and expressed regret for once supporting Trump.
The FBI reviewed its excerpt of Ruth's book.
His social media activity and political donations prior to the assassination attempt Suggests Ruth became a passionate Democrat after voting for Trump in 2016.
These mother effers, and I'm not going to swear because someone might be hearing through the wall, these mother effers are now spouting lies.
They are now doing Ruth's propaganda bidding for them.
There's no evidence that Ruth voted for Trump.
What there is is a 2020 Twitter post from Ruth saying, you were my candidate back in 2016.
There's no evidence that he ever voted for Trump.
And you know who says, I supported you and now I'm turning my back and going to the Democrats?
You know who says that?
Someone who never supported Trump in the first place.
Democrats. Or never Trumpers.
So now the National Review is actually doing the propagandist promotion for Ruth by affirming something that has not been confirmed to my knowledge that Ruth actually did vote for Trump in 2016.
All we have is a stupid tweet from 2020 that said, you were my choice in 2016.
He was a pro-Ukraine activist.
Ruth amateurishly attempted to recruit soldiers.
Oh, amateurishly?
Now they're making excuses for him.
Dude was in Ukraine for two years.
Attempted to recruit soldiers to fight Ukraine, an effort that led to interviews with multiple mainstream news outlets.
Prosecutors revealed that Ruth's note was contained in a box with the unnamed person opening.
That the unnamed person opened after Ruth's arrest.
Who is this person?
Holy hell.
I will flip my lid.
What is it?
Flip a conniption fit if this unnamed person turns out to be a CHS, Confidential Human Source.
Turns out to be anybody with any ties to intelligence.
I don't know anything about it right now.
That's the question I have on the back burner.
The would-be assassin also put ammunition, a metal pipe, building materials, and other items inside the box with the note.
Why would he put that in the box with the note for the unnamed person?
Who is this unnamed person?
It's unclear whether Ruth's note was meant to foreshadow his own attempt on Trump's life or another foil plot.
Prior to the assassination attempt, Ruth compiled a lengthy criminal rap sheet and was known to the FBI because a tipster accused him of allegedly illegally possessing a firearm two years ago.
Known to the FBI.
Hey, who was that letter for?
Who was that unnamed person?
Secret Service spotted agents Ruth in the bushes.
Law enforcement found a loaded rifle.
Okay, fine.
Federal prosecutors said that the subsequent search for Ruth's car turned up six cell phones.
Two of them indicated that he had traveled from Greensboro, North Carolina, to West Palm Beach, Florida, a month before the assassination attempt.
Federal agents also discovered a notebook with notes on joining the war in Ukraine, criticism of the Chinese and Russian governments.
They also found a handwritten list of Trump's past and future political appearances from August to October.
Between August 18 and September 15, Ruth's phone accessed towers close to Trump's golf course on multiple occasions.
One of the cell phones had a Google search on how to travel from Palm Beach to Mexico.
FBI investigating into the assassination remains ongoing.
They're not sure.
They're not sure what the motivation was.
But let's just remember that one.
Remember this.
Remember what Comey said.
Who else said it, by the way?
Let's see, the Washington Post said it.
Just go put in morally unfit.
So you got Washington Post, James Comey, who else?
The Hill, New York Times, everybody.
Lord, people, they know exactly what they're doing.
It's upsetting.
All right, what do we got here?
Finboy Slick in viva-law.locals.com.
Travel went smoothly.
Viva barely got addicted to the meth.
I got nervous about inhaling the secondhand smoke of crystal meth.
I don't know how that goes.
Gretchen wins because the Republicans run retards.
She's term limited.
Who was that?
I don't know who was running against her there, so I can't even feel that one.
Oh, lordy, lordy.
Let me just see what's going on in the chat over on Commitube.
See if I'm not missing anything here.
And we are over on Rumble.
Viva, Ruth's son was just arrested for CP.
Korn Macabre says this?
Hold on.
Ryan Ruth's son.
Tell me that that's not...
Shut the front door.
This is...
I mean, look, I know that I believe that there's a connection to intelligence.
This is now confirming that they were well aware of this.
Listen, son of Trump suspected...
Son of Trump's suspect, Ryan Ruth, arrested, accused of child pornography.
The son of Ryan Ruth, the suspect, has been arrested on federal charges of possessing child pornography.
How'd that happen so quickly?
Oran Alexander Ruth.
Oh, child pornography.
Ruth going to Ukraine.
Human trafficking being one of the biggest, if not the biggest, export from Ukraine.
Hmm. Let's see where this goes.
This is amazing news.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
Was that from Cormacabra?
He was taken into custody Tuesday, according to court documents.
Investigators say they found hundreds of child pornography files when they were searching the younger Ruth's North Carolina residence on Saturday in connection with an investigation unrelated to child exploitation.
He faces two charges, including receipt of child pornography and possession of child pornography.
His father, Ryan Ruth, is being investigated over the apparent assassination attempt.
By the way, these are the people claiming that Trump is morally unfit to be president.
He was charged last week to remain in custody.
Okay, that's it.
Secret Service.
Okay, so that's the rest of the story.
Ryan Ruth, we don't care about that.
The child pornography was found on a Samsung Galaxy Note device inside Oren Ruth's primary bedroom.
He also allegedly has another device in his possession.
These files include videos from a known child pornography series created outside the state of North Carolina.
Court documents say videos from the series depicts minors engaged in sex acts.
The complaint against Oren Ruth included graphic descriptions of videos.
I'll stop reading.
Wow, does this just get...
It just gets more and more obvious that this man was known, tipped off, illegally possessed in firearm two years ago.
Son, all of a sudden, just bam.
They were investigating the son or maybe just going to the son's house to see his connection to the dad and discover a CP.
Maybe they planted it there so they can arrest him.
Who knows?
Holy crab apples.
Classic sting by feds.
It says Mac Wallace Arbitration Service.
Well, the other thing is you never know if they plant it so they can make their own arrests.
Who knows?
Oh, well, we're going to talk about something else in a bit, but you hear the Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard.
Remember when DeSantis flew over one plane load?
Or was it one bus?
One plane load of...
Illegal immigrants to Martha's Vineyard and they flipped their lids and said, we can't handle this.
And then thanked them for their, what is it called?
A night of diversity.
They thanked them as they shipped them back off to government facilities.
This is an article coming out of Fox News.
Archived, Migrant Crime Crisis Comes to Nantucket Martha's Vineyard Playground for the Rich and Famous.
Each suspect that ICE has arrested on their island over the last month have been charged with sex crimes mainly against life.
Not in my backyard, but damn.
It's good.
It's not happening.
It's good that it's happening.
And then when it's in their backyards, let's just enact the policy that Trump was trying to put into effect before he was blocked by the states, blocked by the feds.
Recent illegal immigrant arrests on the island of Nantucket in Martha's Vineyard have captured the nation's interests.
Over the last month...
ICE has made at least six arrests on the islands as part of a larger operation to detain illegal immigrant suspects accused of particularly egregious crimes in the beach towns, favored by the Bidens and the Obama families.
Quote, I think many people are concerned about the violent illegal population.
The biggest thing is obviously not.
But I thought, oh, if you trust those stupid stats, illegal immigrants are four times less likely to commit crimes than citizens.
I mean, as if it's not a contradiction in terms.
But as if that's like, they say, the great replacement is not happening, but immigrants are better than citizens.
Illegal immigrants are better than citizens, so shut up and be replaced.
Or, A, I don't believe the statistic for a bloody second, and B, even if true, well, alrighty, but citizens are citizens and illegal immigrants are not.
And now it becomes a problem.
I think people are concerned about the violent population.
Brown, who noted that most immigrants on the idyllic island off the coast of Cape Cod are good and active community members, including those residents there illegally.
But residents are still concerned about those who may be running from violent paths in their home countries.
But that didn't happen.
When Trump said that they're sending rapists, criminals, the mentally ill, that was racist.
It's not happening, but it's happening.
It's such a small island that I find that things have gotten a little worse here on Nantucket, he said.
Though he also noted there are multiple reasons why crime and poverty seem to have increased on the island in recent years.
Those are problems that ultra-wealthy island residents seem to be removed from.
September 3rd, ICE enforcement arrested a 24-year Brazilian illegal on Martha's Vineyard.
He illegally entered the United States through the Passa del Norte border, Texas.
He's facing five counts of raping a Massachusetts minor.
We don't need to go into it.
We all know this.
But it's not in my backyard.
It's wonderful in diversity and cultural enrichment.
When it's in your backyard, when it's in my backyard, then we have a problem.
And that's how people work.
All right.
Now, the big news of the day yesterday, by the way, that made people question Elon's integrity.
You've all heard about this, that apparently Elon...
He buckled to the pressure of the corrupt Brazilian judiciary and agreed to take down the accounts that he was previously ordered to take down and that he refused to take down because he was arguing that it violated the law to take down the accounts.
It was illegal censorship, yada, yada, yada.
And news was breaking out of the New York Times, which is to be taken with a grain of salt, claiming that Elon Musk has now bowed to the pressure.
And I'm conflicted in who I believe because I do not believe the New York Times, and I believe that they look for any excuse to try to make Elon Musk look like a hypocrite, to cause Elon Musk to fall out of the good graces of the far-right Trump-supporting crowd.
And one way to do that is to make him look like a hypocrite on free speech.
I say that, and yet I read the article, and I also trust a gentleman named Paolo Figueiredo.
And if you don't know who he is, he's actually referenced in this New York Times article.
I had him on the channel.
He's the grandson of a Brazilian president from the 80s.
And he had to flee Brazil after Bolsonaro was voted out of office, after Luna took office.
And I trust Paulo Figueiredo, and he is disappointed, apparently, in what Elon has done in Brazil, which seems to be bowing to the pressure and the demands of...
Demorais, the judge who looks like a caricature of a villain out of a movie.
The article, Elon backs down in Brazil.
In an abrupt reversal, the social media's lawyer said it was complying with court orders that it had previously defied.
Brazil's Supreme Court could allow the site to return next week.
This was from...
When is this article from?
It was from a couple days ago.
Yeah, 21st.
He seems to be giving up.
After defying court orders in Brazil for three weeks...
X has capitulated.
In a court filing on Friday night, the company's lawyers said that X had complied with the orders from Brazil's Supreme Court in the hopes that the court would lift a block on the website.
You do recall, Demo Hayes, do we see his picture in here?
He's a caricature of a villain, ordered that Elon take down, censor far-right accounts.
They were using their disinformation, misinformation, promotion of violence excuse as well.
For those who don't fully appreciate how it works in Brazil, it seems that the judiciary is the ultimate arbiter, pun intended, of everything in Brazil.
And so the judiciary, there are multiple justices on the judiciary, but de Morais seems to be the tyrant, number one, who is supported by the other members of the judiciary.
They ordered Twitter to take down, censor certain accounts, failing which they would fine them millions of dollars a day, I think a million bucks a day.
And Elon came out and said, I'm not doing this because this is illegal.
This violates free speech principles, etc., etc.
And he was defiant.
And then they blocked X for a little bit.
And I think people were accessing it via Starlink.
And it looks like he's reversed course.
And, you know, you can blame and you can be disappointed and you can actually have a little bit more.
I appreciate appreciation and respect for how true to his word Chris Pavlovsky, the CEO of Rumble, is.
And I will use this opportunity to not stroke his ego and not pat him on the back, but just commend him for not capitulating.
Some people might say the situations are not analogous.
They're not symmetrical.
And if someone's going to say it's a lot easier for Chris Pavlovsky to vote with his feet, vote with his dollar, and not comply to demands to censor, You want to undermine someone or fault them for doing the right thing and say, well, Elon's got his excuse to not do the right thing.
Or, you know, he's complying with the law of the land and therefore he's not actually doing anything wrong because that's the law of the land.
And if you don't like it, don't do business in that land, which is what Chris Pawlowski and Rumble has said.
Apparently, it's not what Elon has said.
Decision was a surprise move by Musk, who owns and controls X. He said after he said he would refuse to obey illegal orders, yada, yada, yada.
Musk... Had dismissed local employees and refused to pay fines, the court responded by blocking X across Brazil last month.
Okay, so this is the news from last Friday.
X said that they had done exactly what Musk vowed not to, take down the accounts of Brazilian justice, ordered removed because the judge said they threatened Brazil's democracy.
By the way, coming to America if Kamala Harris and Tim, tampon Tim, no balls walls are elected.
X also complied with the justice's other demands, including paying fines and naming a new formal representative in the country.
Remember, de Moja said he was going to arrest Twitter employees.
And then they blocked Twitter in the country.
What do I think would have been the better move?
Cause an uproar?
Cause protests that would result from banning something that the Brazilian people want and need?
Take a gamble and hope that the media gets on your side if you ban a utility.
I'm calling a utility, in quotes, not legally, a utility that even the left-wing communist media needs.
But no, now, it's amazing.
So here, the abrupt about-face appeared to defeat the outspoken businessman in a self-designed image as a warrior of free speech.
Mr. Musk and his company loudly criticized Brazil's Supreme Court for months, even publicly releasing some of its sealed orders, but neither had publicly mentioned the reversal by Saturday morning.
It showed how a years-long struggle power between the tech giants and the government, yada, yada, was able to keep the upper hand.
Let's get to where Paolo Figueiredo, who I do trust, The longer X remained blocked, the more Mr. Musk risked losing market share and revenue, problematic for the company that has alienated many American advertisers by allowing users to say just about anything on the website.
Oh, my goodness, these idiots haven't been on YouTube in a while.
Another Musk-controlled company, the satellite internet service provider Starlink, was also caught in the crossfire.
Brazil's Supreme Court took $2 million from Starlink in Brazil to cover the fines it had issued against X. This is full tyranny, people.
Here we go.
We get to...
Paolo Figueiredo, and if you don't know him, go check him out.
He's amazing.
Mr. Musk, quote, has bowed down, end quote, Paolo Figueiredo, a right-wing pundit who had his X account blocked in Brazil, wrote in a post on Thursday when X first hired new lawyers in Brazil, signaling a shift in its stance, quote, it's a very sad day for freedom of expression.
A day later, Mr. Figueiredo said he understood Mr. Musk's stance, quote, and appreciates his efforts.
And now Justice Marais, that's the guy, has become one of Brazil's most polarizing figures since the nation's Supreme Court granted him broad authority to order tech companies to take down content that he deems a threat to Brazil's institutions.
Since 2019, he's ordered social networks to take down at least 300 accounts, to a New York Times analysis of a portion of his court orders which have been leaked or publicly or released publicly.
For more than half of those accounts, Justice Moraes did not provide details in the orders for why they should be taken down.
He has generally issued such orders under seal, but the Times analyzed orders published by ex-U.S.
congressmen or whatever.
Yedi, yedi.
Okay, fine.
That's it.
He takes down accounts that attack Brazil's democratic institutions.
Does that sound familiar, people?
It is coming to America sooner than later if...
Tim Nobles, Walls, Tampon Tim, and Kami Kamala get to power.
I mean, you see it happening in Canada now as we speak.
They pass legislation that facilitates the algorithmic prioritizing of trusted news sources that basically institutionally protects the institutional media while institutionally not outlying, but... Penalizing, downgrading, demoting alternative media.
And criminalizing speech through all sorts of legislation.
And it is the slow walk to tyranny across the globe.
And America is the last bastion of it.
Hate speech.
You've got Tim Walls saying you don't have freedom of speech for misinformation and disinformation.
The vast majority of misinformation and disinformation actually comes from the government.
You've got others saying hate speech is not free speech, and you want to look at where that goes, and you can look up to Canada, where, at least on paper, they were talking about locking people away for life if you advocated promoted genocide, however you define those terms.
You get from Bill C-16, which...
Which criminalizes, which adds to the criminal code gender identity as aggravating factors for certain crimes.
And Jordan Peterson back in 2016, 2017, sounded the alarm that this was going to result in compelled speech.
Flash forward eight years and Justin, Justin, Jordan Peterson is having to go through re-education camp for mean tweets that he put on Twitter.
It is coming to America and not in the good Eddie Murphy movie sense.
And you want to see how it's coming to America and how discreetly and insidiously it comes to America.
Well, you have your talking head propagandist late night quote comedy, which is nothing but Nazi level propaganda, importing it by platforming.
I'm not saying that they shouldn't platform Justin Trudeau.
I'm just illustrating how this trickles in to the zeitgeist of the American experience when you have that filthy, Blackface-wearing, woman-groping, two-times-ethics-breaching, scoundrel scumbag of a prime minister given prime time to plant that seed of ideology in American discourse.
Listen to this.
He was on Colbert.
I haven't seen the entire interview, but listen to this.
The far-right and flirtations with fascism, at the very least, is rising across the globe.
Even in Canada, you're...
The Conservative Party leader, your opponent there, has been called Canada's Trump.
And I'm sorry about that.
But I'm curious why at least some form of nativism or far-right xenophobia might grow in a country even as polite as Canada.
Why do you think this is getting a foothold even in your country?
I would pause it right there.
Canada is superficially polite.
And it's superficially polite because people are polite when you follow their rules.
And then the second you do something that they don't like, all of a sudden not so polite.
You know what I would prefer?
I would prefer the brashness of American tolerance than the superficiality of the politeness of Canadian intolerance.
Ooh, yes.
Good morning, sir.
Oh, what's that?
You're not social distancing in the park?
What's that?
You clipped the zip tie on the swings?
I'm going to have to go call in the police because...
Yes, yes, yes.
Superficial polimists, listen to what this scumbag says.
That phrase, even in Canada, I mean, we're not some magical place of unicorns and rainbows all the time.
We've got more than our fair share.
But the things that we've managed to do...
We've had to work really, really hard at it.
I mean, universal healthcare was, you know, decades of trying to bring people together and make it happen.
Universal healthcare, that broken system of universal healthcare in Canada that has now led to the government euthanizing record numbers of Canadians because, you know, they won't say it, although studies show that it will actually save the healthcare system some money.
Universal healthcare, where you can't get a GP for...
I won't go into all of that.
Yeah, universal healthcare.
It sounds good as a word.
Go to Canada, people, and see how good it works in practice.
We've moved forward on world-leading...
Move forward.
We moved forward.
Does that sound familiar?
It's absolutely forward together, Kamoa.
It's absolutely amazing.
Thank you.
I mean, it's just amazing.
I feel crazy just listening to it.
Forward is the campaign slogan for Kamala.
Not going back.
Forward. Is it an accident that all of these world leaders, these commie, fascist dictators, are using the same terminology?
Fight against climate change with a price on pollution.
We're moving forward with dental care for low-income Canadians.
We're moving forward with $10 a day childcare.
These are things that we have to fight for and that are really hard to do, but you can bring people together around thoughtful ideas.
And you can also lose those things, too.
I mean, there's a big argument right now about whether dental care even exists.
We've delivered it to 700,000 people across the country and my opponent is gaslighting us and saying, oh, dental care doesn't even exist yet.
Oh my goodness.
It's like you connect dots in real time and it makes you feel even crazier than you've already gone.
Yeah, so that's what's coming out of Canada.
And it's coming to America.
And it's coming up from Brazil.
It's coming across from France.
And my question is, you know, back to what Elon Musk's reversal indicates in the wake of the arrest of Pavel Durov from Telegram.
It's funny.
We haven't heard much about Pével Dural recently.
Pével Dural Let's see here.
This is interesting.
Now that I'm speaking, what has been the latest news on Pavel Durov?
Telegram's Pavel Durov announces a new crackdown on illegal content after arrest.
Platform with millions of subscribers discloses a more proactive approach to reporting infringes to authorities.
Telegram founder and chief executive Pavel Dirov said on Monday that the messaging platform had removed more, quote, problematic content, end quote, and would take a more proactive approach to comply with government requests.
Nothing like getting arrested and detained to really make you do what the government is asking of you.
I think P. Diddy is probably getting the same treatment right now.
So you got Pavel Dirov arrested.
Not that I'm connecting dots that aren't connected.
Pavel Dirov arrested.
Pavel Durov subsequently, within the last 24 hours, saying they're going to crack down and comply with government requests.
And then you've got Elon Musk seemingly buckling in Brazil, taking down accounts.
And freedom.
Who was it that said it?
Which one of those far-right extremist, senile presidents said it?
Freedom is never one generation away from extinction.
Pretty sure.
It was Ronald Reagan.
I just noticed the purple color.
This is, by the way, this is the Marais.
This guy's a flippin' cartoon villain.
I don't think I can go to Russia anymore.
I don't think I can go to China.
I don't think I can go to Brazil.
And I don't think I can, but wouldn't even want to go to France anymore, even if I could.
Biltong in the house.
Oh, Biltong put out...
I forgot to read Biltong's Rumble rant yesterday when I had Jean Bojan on, but it was funny because he used the Sticks 10 promo code.
I was going to read it and make a joke.
Go use the Sticks 10 promo code.
And infiltrate sticks, hex, and hammer, because he works with sticks.
But King of Biltong in the house, he says, Biltong is one of the most protein-dense foods in the world, packed with B12, zinc, iron, creatine, and more.

Zengado, who is a subscriber now, Zengado.
Zengado, welcome to the Above Average Community at VivaBarnesLaw.locals.
And now, hold on a second.
Let me just see what's going on here.
I'm going to go maybe find a decent portable mic today at some point so that I can have a better mic than the built-in mic.
I had the snowball at one point, but then the cable broke and I never got another one.
What else is on in the news before we go over?
We're going to go over to the local.
We're going to keep the show a little shorter today because I've got to go to a child who I've got to not entertain but educate.
Or as Homer says, edumacate.
Because we are on the road and we are going to learn about a lot of things.
Just living and having these experiences teaches you East Coast, West Coast, geography, a little bit of politics.
Got off the plane.
I said, we just came from Florida and landed in California from a red state to a blue state, which would explain some of the signage, some of the discourse that we're hearing.
And now we're going to go and explore and learn some more stuff today.
But hold on just one second here.
I seem to recall having one thing.
Oh, that's what I wanted to bring up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We're going to end with a bit of a good joke here.
Make sure that I don't have my comments open here.
All righty, people.
Yeah, let's bring up Rep Dan Goldman.
A man who you love to hate.
Okay, this is Rep Dan Goldman complaining about the Supreme Court justices, by the way.
Listen to this.
Because what is really at the heart of the credibility and reputational problems of the Supreme Court are the most egregious ethics scandals that we have seen in the history of the court, most likely. I mean, other than Abe Fortas, maybe, who took a bribe.
But, you know, that...
Seems small compared to $500,000.
I was going to say, Abe Fortis may want his reputation back.
Exactly. Relative to what they're seeing going on now.
No, and just the notion, and by the way, I put some of these ethics issues as well into two different buckets.
Okay. One is the clear violations of accepting, or, you know, clear...
Appearance of a conflict of interest by accepting gifts from individuals who have some involvement either currently or in the future with cases before the court.
So, you know, Harlan Crowe, who takes Clarence Thomas on all these exorbitant, extravagant vacations, has had some business in the Supreme Court.
Obviously, Leonard Leo has funded a lot of cases that go before the Supreme Court and has been a significant benefactor for Alito and Thomas.
We can stop here.
This guy makes me actually sick to listen to.
This is another pig vomit type guy.
I just went and looked.
Just quickly, who funds Dan Goldman?
It's an amazing thing.
Number one, this was 2023-2024, $162,000 from AIPAC.
American-Israel Public Affairs Committee.
I don't know if they were humorously, sarcastically saying, Viva's showing his true colors.
Why would you pick on AIPAC?
I don't know what true colors was in the thread there.
I don't know what they're suggesting about me, but they might want to know a little bit more before suggesting any true colors.
And why did I pick AIPAC?
Because it's the number one.
I mean, it was the first one that is there.
And when we talk about the iron law of woke projection, confession through projection, Accuse your adversaries of doing what you are doing, being compromised because of the gifts that you're taking.
And then you hear the very...
First of all, if there were a legal issue, there would have been action taken legally.
Barnes and I have talked about the nothing burger of that smear campaign, the smear campaign 2.0 against Clarence Thomas.
There's nothing there, and that's why nothing's happening, other than Dan Goldman, the pathological scumbag of a liar, trying to make something out of nothing by...
Very, very deceitfully mixing ideas, mixing words.
Oh, he gets gifts from somebody who has had interests before the Supreme Court.
He gets gifts from someone who finances other litigation that goes before the Supreme Court.
Well, thanks for making it so opaque that I have no idea what you're talking about anymore.
But once you're talking about accusing others of being ideologically biased or corrupted through gifts, what does that say for you?
Dan Goldman, who your number one donor in 2023, 2024, was AIPAC.
What does that say about Hunter Biden getting a $50,000 a month gift from Burisma and millions and millions of dollars from other Chinese insurance?
What does that say there?
So all that to say is the beautiful iron law of woke projection.
And let's go to the chat for a bit before we head on over to VivaBarsLaw.locals.com.
And if I look a little tired today, it's only because I am.
Tired, dismayed, and APAC is whack, quack.
And we got gift under $50, my ass, says DOC Quantum.
They're just liars.
They're just liars.
Neurodivergent1 is our moderator on Rumble.
Neurodivergent1, thank you very much.
The link to locals is there because we're going to have an after party there.
Reagan is the reason we have the huge wealth inequality.
In human history, says Craig 6844.
I cannot speak to that.
He said ketchup is a vegetable making a hot dog square meal.
Oh, Dan Goldman.
By the way, you know how much Dan Goldman is worth?
Not that there's anything wrong with being wealthy.
Dan Goldman net worth.
I think he got it from...
Oh, now my computer decides to freeze up.
It's a conspiracy, I tell you.
They don't want me knowing how much Dan Goldman is worth.
Okay, well, while the computer...
Gives me the net worth.
He's worth $253 million.
He's the wealthiest man in Congress.
I mean, I guess he doesn't need to be bribed.
Got all the money.
Where did he get his wealth from?
Early career, U.S. House of Representatives, tenure.
How did he get his money?
He's the wealthiest.
Oh, he's an heir.
Okay, but an heir to what?
I don't need to know what inheritance means.
Yada, yada, yada, yada, yada.
Early life, D.C., May Sachs.
His father was a federal prosecutor who died when Goldman was a child.
Paternal grandparents were Rota Haas, yada, yada, yada.
Oh, Haas, Levi Strauss.
Okay, there you go.
His great-grandfather was Walter A. House, president of Levi Strauss.
His great-grandfather was Abraham Strauss, the founder of Smart and Final Chain Food Stores.
He grew up in a conservative Jewish family.
His younger brother, Goldman, who died at age 38 in a plane crash.
Oh wow, two of them died in a plane crash.
Anyhow, so that's it.
From Jeans and Food.
So yeah, a wealthy heir who definitely, if Clarence Thomas is bought out because he gets gifts from people who have tangentially had cases before the Supreme Court, we can assume then that Dan Goldman is bought out for AIPAC because he gets lots and lots of money from that.
Okay, people, we're going to wind this up on everywhere except for vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
Do I want to show the...
Nah, we're good.
We're going to do that.
Okay, let's go.
And I also haven't eaten breakfast yet.
It's 1 o'clock.
It's 1.30 my time.
I haven't eaten breakfast yet, but I had a lousy cup of coffee.
I had a lousy cup of coffee because I don't have my 1775 coffee with me on the road.
Darn it.
And that was not an ad.
That's because I actually like 1775 coffee.
The coffee I had this morning tasted like warm urine.
It did not taste like warm.
I'm sorry.
I'm being crass.
It was diluted, and it wasn't hot enough, and it wasn't good.
All right.
Come on over to vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
If you're not, I don't know what time I'm going to be live tomorrow because we're shooting the book review for The Old Man in the Sea in the morning, so I don't think I'm going to be...
I will not be live at 1230.
I'll try to go live later in the afternoon, and then we're going to choose our own adventure.
Where do we go?
We will see.
I'm going to go look at the poll on vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
Thank you all for being here.
Sniff, clip, share away.
I'll put up some clips later today.
And that is it.
Okay. Awesome.
People, we are going to Locals Only.
It's going to give us 30 seconds.
VivaBarnesLaw.locals.com.

Viva Frye.
If you want to get some merch, people.
Everybody needs a shirt.
It's not the most cost-effective shirt on earth because you can get a white shirt at Walmart for two bucks.
But if you want to get it, everybody loves shirts, everybody loves hats, everybody loves coffee mugs, vivafry.com.
I'm going to show locals what I got at the airport.
It has to do with biblical verses.
So get your vivafry.com, vivabarneslaw.locals.com if you want to support the work that we do.
Thank you all for being here, and I will see you all tomorrow at some point and probably on the internet at some point later today.
