Canadian Liberal Leadership Race TO THE BOTTOM! Florida Prosecutor Claims SELF DEFENSE? & MORE!

Time Text
Cognitive decline.
Okay. That's what I'm referring to.
It makes me uncomfortable to watch the money on stage search for questions and try and figure out an answer.
A cognitive decline.
You're trying to tell me that what I was suggesting was a stuttering client.
I think that you were mocking his stutter.
Yeah, I think you were mocking his stutter, and I think you have absolutely no standing to diagnose somebody's cognitive decline.
I would think that somebody in the Trump family would be more sensitive to people who do not have medical licenses.
Diagnosing politicians from afar.
Plenty of people have diagnosed your father from afar, and I'm sure it offends you, your father.
Jake, it's very clearly a cognitive decline.
That's what I'm referring to.
It makes me uncomfortable to watch the money on stage search for questions.
It's so amazing to me.
You know what's amazing is that with the level of AI these days, I actually don't know if this is a real video or a fake AI-generated video because there is a classic.
AI-generated fake video, which is actually playing on the trope of AI-generating fake news, and it's Jake Tapper in AI talking about how fake the fake news is.
If Encryptus could pull that one up, that would be a great video.
This is real, though.
I remember this because I remember this.
And Endwokeness, who's got a great Twitter handle, who pulls out the hypocrisy in real time, pulled up this video of Jake Tapper back in the day when...
Everybody knew that Joe Biden was in cognitive decline, and Lindy Lee, and as much as everybody hates her, or might hate her, some people, a lot of people are forgiving her, still brings up some good points, that everybody knew.
Everybody knew Joe Biden was in decline, but he had his mockingbird media defending his senile, demented hiney.
It seems that now there's a book called Original Sin, President Biden's Decline, It's Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again.
That would be the same Jake Tapper, who I don't know when this video is from, was covering up for it.
It's an amazing thing.
It's like, I wouldn't chalk it up to a fear of God, but I think having a fear of God would help just having a conscience, having the slightest amount of human dignity to not be such a rapacious, hypocrite liar.
And they have none.
They have none.
Like, I'm trying to think of some of the people out there who will literally say A one day and not A later.
Anthony Fauci would be a good example.
To shamelessly gaslight, no, I never said that.
When it's on camera, you saying it.
No, we never said the vaccine was going to be 100% prevent infection.
No, there's only a tweet from Albert Bula, April 1st, 2021, saying 100% effective against infection.
No, we never said that.
We said it would reduce the symptoms.
But we've got you here saying 100% safe and effective.
Yada, yada, yada.
Hold on a sec.
We're actually going to get Adam Johnson in the back.
I was going to start the show off, actually, with Adam.
Dude, I was going to start off with the other stuff, the Canadian stuff.
Okay, slight change in plans.
Adam, how goes the battle, sir?
The battle is ongoing, very slow.
By the time May gets here, we're about...
Okay, so everybody, I'm going to give more of the detailed explanation when you're on a tight time frame.
We're going to talk about the motion to dismiss the charges against...
His first name is what?
His last name is Scruggs.
Patrick. Patrick Scruggs.
Patrick Scruggs, some of you might recall, is the...
He's a federal prosecutor that prosecuted some of the Jan Sixers.
He was caught on camera.
Let me see if I can find the camera.
He was caught on camera stabbing someone with a pocket knife in what was described at the time as road rage.
You may not like the video, people.
You can't really see much.
This is the guy stabbing someone in a parking vehicle incident on the Florida highways.
And he got out of his car, smashed the window, and stabbed a guy with a pocket pen.
I said, this is the man that prosecuted Adam Johnson, lectern guy, for those of you who don't know who you're looking at right now.
I said at the time he was going to plead self-defense.
I said it almost as a cynical joke.
Oh, he's coming back in a second.
And he's doing it.
So let me see if Adam's going to get back in here.
Okay, Adam.
And Adam, for his own very personal reasons, has been following the case.
Dude, okay, so what's going on?
We're going to go over the motion afterwards, but tell us what's going on.
So this guy is on video, allegedly.
He's innocent until proven guilty.
Smashing the window of a driver who was, as he claimed, having a medical emergency.
In a statement of facts, Patrick Shrug admitted he left the vehicle with the intention of breaking his window.
And he's saying this is a self-defense stand-your-ground case.
It's absolutely insane to me.
If I...
Okay, Congress is drunk half the time, right?
We know this is true.
So apparently I was justified walking inside the building because the things they vote on that day, you know, were threatening to my life.
So I had every right to be there.
I can exit my domicile under someone else's and I have every right to be there.
This is defense.
And it's absolutely insane to me.
Now, the fact that there is a hearing for it and it's not just dismissed means the state then has a disagreement with Patrick Shruggs in his defense.
I'm hopeful that the judge has the same perception and opinion that the state has, but we'll see what happens.
I think the video is very clear.
I'll replay the video afterwards with some commentary.
And just so everybody appreciates what happened.
The guy in the vehicle, his name is Sharp.
So ironically enough, Scruggs is stabbing Sharp.
I tell you, it's not jokes, it's not funny, but the guy had a medical emergency.
By all accounts, he was intoxicated or inebriated or on drugs or something.
Is that what the general consensus is?
Those are the allegations, right?
So no blood alcohol content was measured or tested.
Either at the site where he was stabbed or at the hospital because this is a victim.
It's not someone who was supposed to be, you know, under arrest at this point.
He was the victim.
And what's interesting is if you look at the initial reports from the police statements, no one said that he looked intoxicated.
They just said he looked out of it.
So if it was something that was so obviously that he was drunk, I mean, don't you think the police would have instructed the blood alcohol content test to be done or the hospital would have seen this?
But none of these things happened.
And then after the lawyers got involved, Spruggs Kearney got involved.
So what I'm interested to see is...
Can you hear me again?
It was good.
The audio was better for a second, but it doesn't matter.
Okay, sorry.
What were you saying?
So the chain of events happened such that no one reported that they witnessed him being under the influence of...
Drugs or alcohol, right?
So for them to change their story now, a year and a half later, try to build a new narrative, is sketch to me.
I think they're trying to find a window in which it seems like he was a Daniel Penny case or a Kyle Rittenhouse case, where he's just the victim of some terrible person who's either trying to cause other people harm.
I think they're pulling on those heartstrings, and I think it is a huge injustice if this man walks on this.
The video is very clear.
He had no right to exit his vehicle and enter someone else's and stab them.
The question I had asked, I don't know if you know this, but he was still a prosecutor at the time, correct?
He was a federal prosecutor for a few years, and then I believe he had taken a private job out of a firm out of Georgia.
Okay, so that might explain.
I made the cynical joke to you when we were DMing.
I was like, it's a good thing he didn't have a gun, because then he would have really subdued the guy with bigger holes.
The guy, as per the reporting, in the vehicle had a medical emergency and crashed into the vehicle in front of him.
I'm going to read through the motion when you're not here because there's no need to put you through that misery.
In the motion, they're alleging that he might have been drunk and Scruggs wanted to subdue him to make sure that he wouldn't flee and cause potential harm to other people.
And so it was a stabby to subduey type of action that we saw in that video.
Well, he is not a law enforcement officer, right?
He has no right to do this or authority to do this.
He left his vehicle.
He had no reason to leave his vehicle, right?
He's in a very secure place.
He left this engaged in violence.
This is not the way justice should be looking.
I get he has a right to have his case heard.
I understand this, but...
This guy is guilty.
Look at the video.
Watch the video.
Look, and all that I'm saying is the irony in the case is that this guy engaged in overt violence, whether or not you thought it was self-defense, and got released on easier bond than he insisted you be held on for your violent desecration of Nancy Pelosi's lectern.
You know, the other way to prevent him from leaving is to box the car.
They gave me an ankle monitor for a non-violent crime.
Like, this is just absolutely insane.
Now, it is a difference between federal and state.
This is a state prosecution, so I'm sure the way they delve things out are, you know, different.
But, good lord, my attorney made the comment when I first got released after Patrick Scruggs gave me the nightly curfew, the ankle monitor.
My attorney said, look, I'm not a magician.
There's obviously a photo of my guy in the building.
And our job is not to tell you, you know, like, he wasn't there because obviously he was there.
I'm not a magician.
But the facts surrounding the case are what matter.
Now, the facts surrounding my case, there was one picture.
So we could build a story.
The facts surrounding his case, it's a video.
It is a video.
In the video that I posted on my ex account, he didn't just stab this man through a broken window that he broke himself.
He also then threatened to stab the other motorists who were trying to help the victim inside of the car.
That is also on video of him holding up the knife and I'm going to attack you away.
This is all in the statement of facts.
So this man is not, this man is not of sound mind.
I want to show, some people I keep, I take for granted, everybody knows who you are, lectern guy.
This is Adam Johnson, the most famous, the face of the Jan 6. Let me bring it up here.
The famous happy man who stole Nancy.
This is you.
Back before, at this moment, you had no idea you were going to change the world and the trajectory of your life was going to change.
It's like the picture in Memento.
Remember like, Maybe it's a more sinister reason why he took that picture in the movie, but it's just the most iconic photograph.
So everybody who doesn't know, this is Adam Johnson.
You went to jail for 75 days and you spent some of that in solitary, correct?
17 days in solitary confinement.
Okay. So the irony is that Adam Johnson lecturing guys heinous crime of Taking a picture with the lectern because there was never any theft of it.
It's not something you conceive.
He got worse treatment than Scruggs, a man who went stabby-stabby on a motorist.
I told you, I said it at the time.
That's how cynical, thank you, sir.
That's how cynical I have gotten that he was going to raise self-defense and they're going to entertain him.
So they've scheduled a date for the hearing on the motion.
Yes, May 2nd, 1.30pm.
And they anticipate it being a three-hour hearing that will take the entire day.
Entire back half of the day.
Where is it?
What courthouse is it going to be at?
This is going to be Pinellas County Courthouse Judicial Center.
So I will definitely post that.
It's going to be in courtroom, four-floor courtroom 6B.
Pinellas County.
How do you spell that?
P-I-N-N-E-L-A-S.
Penelis. If you will.
Penelis County.
Penelis. Western, that is, how far is that from me?
Oh, that's on the other side.
About three and a half, four hours.
Well, dude, maybe we'll figure out a way.
We'll go frolic on the beach and then we'll go frolic in the courthouse.
Okay. So, amazing.
And so you were there to see this this morning or did they have a, it was a pro forma hearing?
I've been in person for every single hearing he's had.
I think this is the sixth or seventh pre-trial conference.
But I'm there every time.
I smile at him because I'm not letting it go.
I'm sure he would love to watch this just kind of get washed out.
His attorneys in one of the first or second pretrials actually were kvetching to the judge saying, listen, you know, it's a very high-profile case because people online won't stop talking about it.
I'm like, oh, how does it feel?
How does it feel to have your name smeared across millions of views?
This is how you want justice to be done.
I guess we'll play the same game.
He sees you in the courtroom when you go?
Yes, I smile at him every single time.
He knows who I am.
I know the last time I posted, about a hit seven and a half million views.
And Elon Musk is even aware of this case.
He commented on it about a year ago.
But this is, again, this should be something that we get very focused on.
We want the heads of the hydrant taken down, which I believe is a very good thing to do.
But we also have to make sure that the people who are Running the system, the mill workers are also being prosecuted.
And we can't let these people slip by.
They have to be watched.
And not any one person can watch everything, report everything, but if every one of us...
And... Oh, he's back, okay.
Yeah. If every one of us focused on one grievance, one injustice, and reported on it, maybe we would see justice happen on a long enough timeline.
So I'm not letting this go.
I'll be there for every hearing.
And someone said the knife guy was the DA.
Yes, the knife guy was Adam's prosecutor, back in his case.
All right, man, I'm going to read through.
You've got something.
I'm going to read through the motion so that people really fully understand what's going on.
I was going to do this story second because the stories of stabbing don't tend to algorithm well on YouTube, and I don't really care.
Maybe it's fate.
So you're following it.
First of all, people say they need to see us frolicking.
We will first frolick, then we will kvetch.
And then we'll have a bagel together.
Love it.
Adam, keep in touch.
Well, keep in touch.
Sounds great, man.
Have a good one.
Kick him from the stream like this.
See you.
Everybody, this was the second story of the day, but Adam had a window to pop on, and I forgot that he was actually going to pop on, and he popped on.
We're going to get into that motion because you've got to see it, and we're going to watch the video.
In detail and watch the reporting on it.
But before we do that, because we can't do the show without thanking the sponsors of today's show, and oh yeah, we got good ones today, people.
We've got good stuff for the health and good stuff for the belly.
I've got to tell you something.
Everybody knows, by the way, that the way to my heart is through my stomach.
And the way, the real easy way, hold on one second.
I want to bring up the picture.
The photograph of the first order we got.
Speaking of funny photographs.
Where is it?
Oh, wait, don't.
Here we go.
The first, this is like the memento photograph where you're like trying to find that moment again.

If you haven't heard about Senolytics, it's an incredible ingredient discovered less than 10 years ago, being hailed as a major breakthrough for promoting healthy aging and enhancing our physical prime.
Aging is something that we all go through if we're lucky, and it doesn't always feel good.
That's why I use Qualia Senolytics.

Qualia senolytics acts like pruning the dead leaves off a plant, removing these worn-out cells so healthy ones can thrive.

And the links are in the description.
Now, back to stabbing people.
I'm sorry.
It's so...
We live in a crazy world.
And we're gonna read through the motion.
You've seen the video.
We're going to read through the motion.
And if you hadn't seen the video, you might be inclined to be convinced by the motion.
I mean, even if you've seen the video, you hate lawyers, especially the ones who do good jobs for what are potentially bad people.
Where is the...
Oh, crap.
Hold on one second.
I posted the motion itself.
Over in our vivabarneslaw.locals.com community.
So I'm going to go get it there.
If you had been a member of our community, you'd already know what's in this motion.
Here we go.
The Scruggs motion.
How do I open this up?
Like this.
Okay, here we go.
Stand your ground.
The argument is that he was stabbing the man into submission so that he couldn't flee, potentially commit another felony, and so that he could be subdued for arrest.
In the circuit of the court for the 9th, 6th Judicial Circuit, Penelis County, Florida, yada, yada, yada, motion to dismiss, stand your ground.
Defendant Patrick Scruggs, by and through his undersigned counsel, files a motion to dismiss, pursuant to whatever, because the force he used was necessary to protect himself and others from great bodily harm.
In support thereof, factual basis.
We go through the fact pattern.
I don't think we really need to go.
There was an accident on the bridge.
A bunch of people observed a Lexus driver, later identified as Blake Sharpe, slumped over into the front passenger seat.
In an effort to help Mr. Sharpe, Gahaf parked his car, parked his vehicle in front of Sharpe's vehicle, got out and approached Sharpe's door.
He tried to open the door, but it was locked.
He began banging on the window and asked Mr. Sharp to open the door.
Sharp was initially unresponsive to the banging, but then started to move.
That's when Mr. Gahaff made the observation that Mr. Sharp appeared to be under the influence of drugs.
It's nice that, you know, this is the defense of the prosecutor, but the prosecution is going to look at this.
So this is the defendant's defense.
The defendant happens to be a former prosecutor.
This is what we would call a third-party hearsay.
He is expressing what he thinks Mr. Gahaff understood when he was looking at Mr. Sharp.
I wonder how he knew that Gahaff thought the guy was under drugs or whatever, but that's the first reaction anyhow for most people.
Gahaff went to his own vehicle to retrieve a tool in order to break Sharp's window.
However, when Gahaff was attempting to retrieve the tool, Sharp became conscious and quickly accelerated, striking the rear of Gahaff's vehicle.
He didn't stop.
Mr. Sharp did not stop upon striking Gahaff's vehicle, but rather continued to accelerate his own car, pushing Mr. Gahaff's vehicle down the roadway while Gahaff's wife, Alma Taser, was still inside the vehicle.
The collision and forced acceleration put her in fear.
Again, talking about how other people are feeling, third-party hearsay.
Sharp then, attempting to flee, reversed his vehicle and veered into the left lane in an effort to get around Mr.
Gahaff's vehicle.
In doing so, Mr.
Sharp struck the defendant's passing vehicle, a Honda Civic.
Well, that's not going to work real well if the argument is the risk of fleeing, because the vehicles are now pressed against each other and presumably relatively immobile.
Back, towards the right, striking the side of Mr. Gahaff's vehicle.
The result was Mr. Sharp's vehicle became wedged between the defendant and Gahaff's vehicle.
Okay, interesting.
Very minimal flight risk by the allegations itself of the motion.
Upon seeing the second collision, Gahaff dialed 911 to report there was an impaired driver.
Okay, hopefully they have a recording that shows that.
Sharp's vehicle was still running and he made no effort to turn off the vehicle, get out of his vehicle or communicate in an ordinary fashion with the people whose cars he had just struck.
Defendant exited his own vehicle carrying a small pocket knife.
Defendant initially intended to use the back of the pocket knife to break Sharp's window in order to remove Sharp from the vehicle and/or turn off Sharp's vehicle.
Upon making contact with Sharp, the defendant observed Sharp appeared heavily intoxicated.
I'll see you next time.
Sharp's speech was slightly slurred.
Hold on a second.
I think I can probably...
Tabarnouche. I can probably bring it up like that.
His speech was slurred.
He was not capable of making any kind of intelligible statement.
His gaze was abnormal, and his pupils were visibly dilated.
This guy's like a master diagnoser.
He appeared disoriented and wasn't making any effort to turn off his car, step out of the vehicle, despite having just caused two crashes.
Defendant yelled at him, used forceful language for Mr. Sharp to get out of the vehicle, but Sharp did not comply.
The defendant then attempted to open the door, Sharp's door, but it was locked.
Defendant then used the back end of the pocket knife to break Sharp's driver's side window.
Sharp was still refusing to turn off or exit the vehicle.
He was not making coherent statements or giving any other indication that he was reacting to have just caused two traffic crashes.
A struggle ensued between the defendant and Mr. Sharp, with the defendant attempting to unlock Mr. Sharp's door from inside.
Mr. Sharp fought back, grappling with the defendant.
During the struggle to open the door, Sharp attempted to accelerate his vehicle forward as if to push through the two vehicles blocking his path.
After Sharp attempted to accelerate his vehicle, and as he continued to grapple with the defendant, the defendant stabbed Mr. Sharp multiple times through the driver's side window while continuing to attempt to unlock the door with his other hand.
At the time, the defendant used force against Mr. Sharp.
The defendant was in place, a public bridge, where the defendant had the right to be.
Here's trying to use the stand your ground.
He used force.
He was in threat that Mr. Sharp would continue in his efforts to escape the scene, which would result in Sharp striking the defendant with his vehicle.
The defendant was positioned between his own...
Yada, yada.
Okay, fine.
In addition to his concerns for his own safety, the defendant was fearful if Mr. Sharp escaped.
He would then proceed down a bridge, recklessly fleeing and putting...
Numerous other people in danger.
Sharp had every appearance of a highly impaired fleeing driver.
This is corroborated by Gahaff's independent and contemporaneous report to 9-1-1 that Mr. Sharp was an impaired driver who had already hit him.
How much more does this go for?
Oh, cripe.
Okay, well, I guess let's do it while we're at it.
At the hospital, he had his statement of medical staff at the time.
Driver who was in back rammed him from behind.
And then stabbed him because he allowed another car to merge in the front.
The claim is wholly inconsistent with entirely the evidence.
Mr. Sharp later claimed during a 2024 deposition he had no memory of crashing into the back of Gahaff's vehicle.
Sharp testified in this deposition that his lack of memory of the incident was due to the fact that he suffered a diabetic episode.
Sharp denied having consumed any intoxicating substances.
Despite the claims about lack of motive to flee two accidents, Sharp was aware at the time of the incident he had multiple warrants out for his arrest.
Sharp had active warrants for his arrest for violating the terms of probation that he was serving following convictions for offensive out of both Piniella and Hernando counties.
At the time of the incident, Sharp was on a four-year period of probation originating out of Hernando County for the offensive battery on a person 65 years of age or older.
In addition to probation, Sharp was serving concurrent term of probation for reckless driving, a charge which had been reduced down from DUI.
In this instance, police found Mr. Sharp passed out behind the wheel of a running car.
The basis for the existing probation violations and the associated arrest warrants was that Sharp provided a dilute urine sample.
Any new violation that Mr. Sharp committed to include any offenses of driving under the influence, leaving the scene, or aggravated battery would have constituted an additional probation violation.
He claimed in his deposition he suffered from diabetic episode, although he's never been diagnosed by medical professionals having diabetes.
He claimed the medical professionals told him at the time of the event that his blood sugar was off the charts, extremely high, which caused him to faint on the bridge.
Contrary to these claims, Sharp's medical records show that blood sugar was measured when he arrived at the hospital and his blood sugar level was normal, not extremely high or off the charts.
Sharp was not administered anything while en route to the hospital, which would have modified or normalized his blood sugar levels.
That's the gist of it, people.
And now I'm kind of curious because it's not an implausible...
What's he dealing with?
So it's interesting where this is where you would have one of those situations where you would question the unduly prejudicial information of prior arrests for impaired driving or whatever.
That might lead me to believe that if this guy...
Was arrested again for having caused an accident while being under the influence, if he was, which there's no evidence that he was yet, that there might be motive to flee.
Which might explain...
What did I just do?
Which might explain, you know, some plausibility of the story.
But I think OEG gets it over here.
No, you can't stab a guy.
So at the risk of really pissing off YouTube, but let's do it anyhow because it's going to be the end of the stream on YouTube.
Let's go back to the video now.
Now you've heard the defense.
Not wholly implausible, but the idea is that you're going to stab a man into submission with a pocket knife so he doesn't flee the scene I don't think is legally tenable.
I'm not an American attorney.
I've never done criminal law.
But... Let's go back and watch this now.
Do we get two things on this?
State troopers say one of the most infamous Capitol riot defendants, but tonight he's a defendant himself.
State troopers say former federal prosecutor Patrick Scruggs stabbed someone on the Howard Franklin Bridge.
And this happened after a series of crashes on the bridge Tuesday morning.
What a scene here.
Scruggs worked as a prosecutor in Florida's middle district for more than 10 years.
FOX 13's Evan Axelman reports tonight on the chaos that led to that violent incident.
It all started with a driver passed out in the middle of the highway on the Howard Franklin Bridge and ended with a former federal prosecutor.
You see him point to him as if to say, you stay there.
I mean, maybe that's what he did.
The thing is this, I think even if we accept the fact pattern of this motion, in no way does it legally justify what we just witnessed.
...
stabbing the man.
Pictures taken by Tara Eglinski show Patrick Scruggs standing outside of a car in a three-car pileup.
Someone else's bloody hands are sticking out of a window.
He had a lot of blood on his arms and cuts on his arms.
And I was trying to figure out what had caused that.
Troopers say Scruggs had bashed through that window and stabbed the man multiple times.
Just before that, the man had been passed out while behind the wheel.
His car stopped on the Howard Franklin Bridge.
Two Good Samaritans had also stopped and evidently startled him awake.
He drove forward, hit the Good Samaritan's car, and then drove into Scruggs' path.
Troopers say that's when Scruggs stopped.
It's just so sad that someone would react in that way.
There's so much road rage nowadays.
I want to look up whether or not Scruggs had any prior criminal record.
I presume he couldn't have if he was a prosecutor.
And it's wild.
We're going to do not a poll.
I'm just going to look at the chat in a second and see what everyone thinks.
Not have expected it from Scruggs had they known he was a federal prosecutor for 10 years.
He just left that job for a private practice.
But while he served the U.S. Attorney's Office in Tampa, he helped on high-profile cases, including that of Adam Johnson, who stole the lectern from Nancy Pelosi's office during the Capitol insurrection.
His actions speaks to his actions and his actions only.
We don't ever want to see someone get out and commit some kind of violence like this, whether it be at a home, a restaurant, or on the highway.
Troopers also say Scruggs used the knife to scare the Good Samaritans off when they tried to help the stabbing victim.
Traffic was stopped for three hours, after which the former federal prosecutor was charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.
It doesn't matter who he is, what he did was really Well, they really milked replaying that video throughout that report.
So that's the incident.
Bonded out after 10 hours.
Adam Johnson was in for 75 days.
Nope, nope.
I don't think he got...
I don't remember when he got...
Bonded out if he did.
But he served 75 days and 17 days in solitary.
Had an ankle...
Oh no, he did.
He had an ankle bracelet when he was bonded out.
It seems like there might be some confusion in your question, Viva.
Patrick Douglas Scruggs, the former federal prosecutor involved in the Howard Franklin Bridge stabbing incident.
If that's the guy, please clarify.
Based on available information, he did not have a significant criminal record prior to the stabbing incidents.
Report... Consistently describe him as having no prior criminal history with his attorney, emphasizing that the event was an isolated incident.
The only mentions of legal issues before the stabbing are two minor traffic tickets in Pinella County, Florida, one for speeding, the other for overtaking on the right.
Both indicate road rage.
These are not considered serious criminal offenses, just civil infractions.
I'm not convinced, period.
You know, if that's what he thought he was doing, well, congratulations.
That's like saying I thought the, you know, the final tap after I had already subdued someone was still self-defense.
You go to jail for that.
No right to stab anybody, says maple syrup in all caps.
And I tend to agree with that.
Stabbing into submission, fear for your life.
Like, the argument here is going to be the whole, which case?
Oh, it was Ahmaud Arbery.
I mean, it's very similar to Ahmaud Arbery.
Well, they say, okay, well, that's a stool under.
That's not.
Any other, what you think it might be?
In Ahmaud Arbery, recall that the argument is what type of force are they allowed to use to subdue someone who they think might have committed a crime?
And then it depends on whether or not he was suspected of having committed a felony.
And then the issue is, you know, what type of force are you allowed to use to prevent someone from fleeing and putting other people at risk?
So that's the argument here is he's trying to say that I had to stab him.
Repeatedly, in a manner that looked very aggressive, obviously there's no peaceful way of stabbing somebody, to prevent that risk from happening.
I'm not buying it in a million years.
And we'll see what happens with that as we go forward.
So, that's cool that we got Adam and we got to see the motion.
Let me bring up some of the chats in here.
We got Encryptus.
We need a video of Aviva and Adam frolicking on the beach, hair flying in the wind, holding hands while skipping down the beach.
It can be done.
It can be done.
Then we got Encryptus back over here.
He says, a guy named Sharp stabbed one.
No, it was a guy named Scruggs who stabbed someone named Sharp.
In self-defense, road rage, isn't it?
A guy named Sharp stabbed someone.
Foreshadowing? No, no.
It was Scruggs, which also sounds like skirmish or something, who stabbed Sharp.
Greenberry Hill, if anybody's ever seen the movie Magnolia.
We're going to go over to Rumble in a second here.
Crash says, CHL in...
Washington State trains you on how to determine what lethal force is and who is the aggressor in a tit-for-tat situation.
By the state training, Stabby Stabber was the aggressor.
I don't think there's any question about it.
The only question is going to be whether or not the system is sufficiently corrupt that the system is going to buy that defense, but I don't think so.
That looks like totally justified a self-defense stabbing.
Entirely sarcastic, of course.
And then we got forced name change.
Just because Scruggs was never charged with a crime that he was caught for doesn't mean there are no skeletons in his closet.
Well, I'll tell you one thing, at least from my own personal surmising, one has to have some serious, serious issues going on in one's life to stab someone.
I mean, cripe, I have a problem clipping the gills on fish to bleed them out peacefully.
So I'm inclined that there are probably some serious anger issues going on with that man and other personal issues that might explain that psychotic, violent incident.
Everyone is innocent until proven guilty, and I cynically and sarcastically predicted he was going to raise self-defense.
I am right again.
All right, people.
We're going to do the Canadian side of this over on Rumble.
So get your butts on over, and we're going to have some fun over on the Rumble side.
But there was something that we could watch while we segue over there.
Yeah, let's watch this.
This is a true story, people.
It happened to me at the beach this morning.
Children. Children.
They say the darndest things.
And this is going to be a prelude to what we're going to discuss over on Rumble.
It's amazing.
I was just walking on the beach in Florida.
I feel a little tug on my shirt.
I turn around.
It's a four-year-old girl.
And she says to me, are you Viva Frye?
And I said, I am.
And she says to me, I'm a Canadian expat living in exile because of what the Canadian government did to my family.
And I just watched the leadership race debate yesterday with Karina Gould, Mark Carney, Christian Freeland, and that other guy.
Is it true that if I drink Florida orange juice, they're going to freeze my bank account?
Is it true that if I travel to Florida, they're going to put me in jail?
How can I make sure that Christopher Freeland doesn't lock me up for drinking that sweet, sweet Florida orange juice?
And I said, little girl, you drink that freshly squeezed orange juice.
You take in that vitamin C. You don't want to get scurvy.
You drink in that beta-carotene.
It's good for you, but don't drink too much because it'll turn your skin orange.
And you bask in the freedom of choice, the freedom of decision.
And don't you worry.
That Christopher Freeland with a triple passport, that Mark Carney, WEF stewed, they won't come to get you here in the pre-state of Florida.
True story.
Absolutely true.
It happened just that way, much like the same Christopher Freeland said.
A four-year-old girl came up to her and said, what can we do to prevent Trump from invading Canada?
Get your butts on over to Rumble.
And by the way, it's a true story.
There was a kid who drank so much Sunny D that he actually turned orange.
And then I remember the reports at the time.
And the reporter was laughing.
It was in 1999.
A four-year-old girl from Wales developed yellowed skin after drinking too much Sunny Delight.
The girl's condition was caused by beta-carotene, an additive that gives Sunny Delight, Sunny D, its orange color.
And I remember the reporter saying, doctors expect her to return to normal color shortly.
Get your butts on over.
You won't believe what's going on in Canada.
That's the segue.
And you got Karina Gould telling Canadians to not go to Florida and not drink orange juice.
I pooped you not.
I kid you not.
Get your butts on over.
We're going to carry this party on over at Rumble and then I'll have our after party at Locals and then I will be on with the unusual suspects tonight at 4 o'clock.
Okay, so everybody knows what's going on in Canada.
A robust leadership race for the Liberal Party of Canada so that Justin Trudeau can be replaced with either Brian Carney, Chrystia Freeland, Karina Gould, and that other guy.
Nobody knows who the other guy is.
It's so mean.
There's another guy.
His name is...
I forget what his name is, but he's in one of the videos, so I'm going to show you this.
They had their debate last night, and it's like watching late-night soap operas from a foreign country.
It makes Canada look like such a freaking joke that these are the four candidates.
Vying for the replacement of Justin Trudeau.
The entire thing is tragic.
It would be hilarious if it weren't so tragic.
Justin Trudeau, a corrupt, ethics-breaching, woman-groping, booby-elbowing, misogynist, blackface-wearing piece of garbage.
And the people that are vying to replace him are ne'er better.
Karina Gould might be better only because I believe she's just a naive idiot.
I don't think she's malicious.
Karina Gould is the woman who gleefully posed.
Karina Gould, Nazi.
Gleefully posed with that Nazi that they invited into Parliament.
With what I refer to as a shit-eating grin on her stupid face.
I don't think she's malicious.
This is her posing with that guy.
Hunkel. Fought with the SS.
Luft, whatever.
The SS back in Ukraine.
Was fighting the Soviets.
That's the picture she took with a known confirmed Nazi who actually volunteered to join the Nazis.
He wasn't even like force conscripted like many Germans.
He volunteered with a brigade.
I forget what it was.
Encryptus might be able to refresh my memory.
It's double W, two Ws.
A brigade so vicious that even the Nazis had a problem with it.
Volunteered. So you got her, who I think is just an ignorant buffoon, totally naive of geopolitics, who wants to be Prime Minister.
You've got the other guy, we're going to get to, Frank Bally something, who seems decent but just totally obtuse.
And two corrupt sons of bitches who are, I believe, WEF stooges who are seeking to break Canada, ruin it, and turn it over to the globalists.
And we're going to get to them in a second.
So they had their debate, and I watched it, and I felt myself losing the brain cells.
And I pulled together some of the highlights.
And they're hilarious.
Okay, so we got, hey Canadians.
Here, look at this.
This is Karina Gould.
In response to a question about how Canadians should respond to Trump's tariffs, calling for a boycott of Florida.
My eye is twitching.
My eye just started twitching.
This is so stupid.
Florida and Florida orange juice.
I kid you not.
And I'm going to call on Canadians to stop going to Florida, to stop buying Florida orange juice, because that's a $50 billion economy in that state alone.
Canadians matter to the United States.
Stop drinking Florida orange juice and stop going to Florida to boycott Trump tariffs.
I made the joke with my wife, but it would be...
Not too eclectic.
I'm not sure how the internet would understand it.
Remember when they were boycotting Russian oil, Russian gas?
Where do you go to get it?
Oh, you go to Venezuela and you go to Saudi Arabia.
So boycott Florida oranges.
Where are you going to get oranges and orange juice from?
If you boycott going to Florida, and I presume she means all of America, where are you going to go on vacation then?
United Arab Emirates?
Saudi Arabia, Venezuela.
So boycott orange juice so that you can get even sicker during your six months of vitamin D depletion up in Canada.
Make yourself sicker.
Boycott Tesla and by your own rationale.
Damage the environment.
And then you're going to have to go get your lithium batteries and your electric vehicles from China.
So you're going to go boycott America and boycott Elon Musk's American company, Tesla, so you can go support Chinese Communist Party human rights abusers.
You haven't thought this through any more than you thought through giving a standing ovation to a Nazi because you didn't understand that those who fought the Soviets during World War II were the Nazis.
Fine. She's an idiot.
Probably a well-meaning idiot.
But an idiot nonetheless.
Then you get the less well-meaning.
Well, we're going to stick with the well-meaning idiots.
Let me see here.
Not this one.
Is it this one?
Is it this one?
What's the guy's name here?
Oh yeah, here we go.
I think this is the one.
Yes, Frank Bayless is his name.
Enjoy your Canadian production value, people.
This is the leadership debate.
We're in a debate, and you're going to hear it with Mark Carney.
Everybody agrees with each other.
I've never heard a debate where everyone is like, yeah, let's boycott.
It's just a matter of how much.
You know who might have said, let's not necessarily boycott or fight tariff with tariff?
Maybe Ruby Dalla, if she were allowed to debate.
You know who might be saying maybe immigration is not all, you know, unchecked immigration is that kind of thing?
Ruby Dalla, if she were allowed to debate.
You have a debate among four lackeys, two of whom are idiots and two of whom are corrupt idiots.
All agreeing with each other on all essential points.
That's not a debate.
That's a circle jerk.
Frank Bayless seems to be good-natured.
Totally, totally incompetent out in left field.
Listen to this.
One of you will become the Prime Minister of this country.
What is your first move?
And again, this was drawn ahead of time.
And Mr. Bayless, your start.
So, first of all, I don't take him at his word.
He said March 4th.
But I would expect him to hit us beforehand.
And I expect him to hit us again.
What he's going to do is look at...
Industries where he has overcapacity in the United States, because he'll be thinking that's going to hurt the American economy the least, I should say.
Do I interrupt and tell you what I think?
He's going to look where he doesn't need the stuff to impose tariffs.
This is a genius.
This man should become prime minister.
So I'm going to be looking at softwood lumber, and I'm going to be looking at dairy as the next two industries he's going to attack.
Pause. Canada exports to the U.S. It's 13 times more softwood lumber than they import.
So that's a big deal for Canada, if they're going to impose a tariff on that.
Canada tariffs American dairy between 200% and 300% already.
So he's saying how they're going to impose tariffs at least on one item.
That Canada already imposes tariffs on and massive tariffs to favor their own economy on the Americans.
Okay, fine.
So he's going to pick these two industries.
One is, you know, one's going to hurt Canada.
And the other one, Canada is already hurting America by imposing massive tariffs on.
Okay. And what we're going to be doing is supporting those industries completely.
We're not going to let them take our jobs away.
And we're going to be putting into place very intelligent counter tariffs.
And then we're going to be waiting.
And we're going to be waiting.
Because he's not going to stop until he gets the lesson that he can't get away with this.
Then what I am going to do is, as I said, I will go down and meet with President Scheinbaum of Mexico, come together with her and say, listen, let's hold the fort together.
Let's call him on his 25% tariff bluff.
Let's just call it.
Tell him, do it.
And let's take everything that he already took from us off the table.
Mr. Bayless, thank you.
What you just said is the most insanely idiotic thing I have ever heard.
No point in your rambling, incoherent response did you come close to anything resembling a coherent thought.
We're going to impose intelligent tariffs, I think is the word he said.
And then we're going to wait.
I can't get away with this.
Then what I am going to do, and we're going to be putting into place very intelligent counter-tariffs.
And then we're going to be waiting.
And we're going to be waiting.
And then we're going to wait until we starve to death because we are a nation that has...
A GDP or an economy that is one-tenth, one-thirteenth the size of the American economy?
We're going to wait and we're going to wait until Trump realizes he can't get away with it.
They don't even understand the idea of how insulting it is to be referred to as the 51st state.
If they're the 51st state in jest, they've got 50 other states from which they can tap for the resources that they are currently tapping from Canada.
So you can wait and you can wait until you starve to death.
Until you freeze to death?
Until you die from scurvy because you stopped drinking Florida orange juice?
The only lesson Trump is going to learn is that Canada does not know its place in the geopolitical sphere.
It's an amazing thing.
We're going to listen to the other guy there, Carney.
They'll do everything except sit down and talk.
They'll do everything except respond to what Trump actually wants.
It's an amazing thing.
They've learned the wrong lessons from their geopolitical tactics with Russia.
We're in a conflict.
Let's pull ambassadors and let's cut off all political ties.
That's going to really resolve the conflict.
No, that's going to exacerbate it.
It's what they wanted to do there, and it's what these idiots want to do with the tariff war with America, is exacerbate that problem so they have a big bad boogeyman to blame for the woes of Canadians when they're all self-inflicted woes that existed prior to this tariff war and will only be exacerbated by it.
Okay. That flowed beautifully, by the way.
Now let's get to Christia Freeland, because she had a big brainiac moment too.
Here. This was Christia Freeland's answer to the question.
In as much as, you know, they didn't know that the Nazis were fighting the Soviets, Christopher Freeland, who's got three passports, by the way, that I learned this today, along with Carney, WEF, globalist whore, three passports between the two of them.
I'm sorry, six passports between the two of them.
Three passports each.
Her understanding of American media is that the Wall Street Journal...
Typically supports Trump.
Listen to this.
Ms. Freeland, you're up next.
And again, days later, it's you that becomes Prime Minister.
What is your first move?
My first move is dollar-for-dollar retaliation.
And let me be very clear with President Trump.
Bullshit coming.
If I am Prime Minister, I will not flinch.
We will retaliate.
If you hit us, we will hit back.
You know what it's like when someone who weighs 100 pounds tries to hit?
Something that weighs 1,300 pounds?
Well, we'll have a dollar-for-dollar tariff war.
When our economy is one-thirteenth the size, you need to actually figure out a way to have an impact of a dollar-for-thirteen-dollar tariff war.
So every dollar of tariff that you impose should have a commensurate proportionate impact of $13 on the US.
We're gonna go dollar-for-dollar.
It's like a lightweight going punch-for-punch with a heavyweight.
Idiots! But sorry, I'll let it continue.
But our retaliation will be a lot smarter than their dumb tariffs.
And it's the Wall Street Journal, usually a supporter of Trump, that described this Trump effort as dumb.
Canada, by contrast, is going to be smart.
We are going to have a targeted retaliation that exerts maximum pain in the U.S. And does minimum harm to us.
We're going to hit Trump's best friends.
I will impose a 100% tariff on Teslas.
I'm going to hit Wisconsin dairy.
I'm going to hit Florida orange juice.
And you are going to see a stock market reaction.
You're going to see people like the American Farm Bureau complaining about the Canadian potash they need that costs more.
And that reaction, that pain, will cause Trump ultimately to back down, just like you did last time.
It's delusional.
There is no discoursing with delusional stupidity.
I was just looking up.
I thought maybe I was wrong for a second.
Maybe the Wall Street Journal typically does back Trump.
They don't.
The Wall Street Journal is a little bit better than CNN, maybe.
The only one that I think really typically backs Trump is New York Post, but even not so much, and Fox, but then with a big asterisk.
With a big-ass asterisk.
Dollar for dollar.
They're going to make America feel pain.
I mean, they're delusional idiots.
No, she's not the favorite.
Mark Carney is the favorite by like 90-some-odd percent to become the next prime minister.
Because I understand, everybody, whoever wins the leadership race de facto becomes the next prime minister even in the absence of a federal election.
Okay. Let's go see what Carney has to say.
I believe...
I believe this is Carney.
Yes, it is.
Canada is governed by idiots, man.
Here's Mark Carney talking about everything he would do to retaliate against Trump.
I don't want to spoil the punchline.
Here's Mark Carney's response to this massively wonderful curveball of a question.
Mr. Carney, days later, you become prime minister.
What's your first move?
Well, I'll pick up on a few things.
First, entirely agree with what Karina just said.
First item, call, I would call it a first minister's meeting as opposed to Council of Federations, but first minister's meeting, sharing the plan, but also developing our broader response, our broader domestic response, including project.
All right.
I agree with Karina Gould.
That's a great debate.
Okay. What else?
Who else do you agree with?
Secondly, entirely agree with Christian.
Dollar-for-dollar tariffs.
Maximum impact on the United States.
The choice is all yours, Canadian.
You can pick Mark Carney, or you can pick Kirsten Freeland, with whom Mark Carney agrees, or you can pick Karina Gould, with whom Mark Carney agrees.
This is a circle jerk of agreement.
But it's a debate.
It's a debate.
Where we hear new ideas, fresh ideas, for new leadership.
Mark Carney has three freaking passports.
Canada, England, and Ireland.
Christopher Freeland has three freaking passports.
I didn't know that until today.
Canada, Britain, and England, and Ireland.
They're both WEF whores.
Christopher Freeland was on the board of trustees of the WEF, and Mark Carney is so intimately involved, he may as well be the colonoscopizer of the WEF.
Okay, let's go on with his answer, because it's great.
He would fight dollar for dollar, make America feel that pain.
What else would he do?
Minimal impact here in Canada.
Thirdly, put them on notice on the broader aspects of our commercial relationship.
We are their largest supplier of energy.
We are their largest supplier of electricity.
We are their largest supplier of uranium.
I could go on, but I will exhaust all my time.
There is the first signs in the United States now of the economic impact policies. We will amplify that and that will begin to create the leverage of the economic signs.
First sign.
There is the first signs in the United States now of the economic impact of the Trump policies.
I would love for any reasonable journalist to flesh that out for me.
What's he suggesting?
That within the two months...
The economic situation has gotten worse than it was under Biden, and that's as a result of Trump's tariff policy?
We will amplify that.
And that will begin to create the leverage.
And then I will call President Trump.
And then you'll call President Trump.
Well, it's going to be a long day.
Okay, Mr. Kearney, thank you.
What a leader.
I'm going to do everything to burn the bridges with our biggest neighbor, the one who protects us.
The one with whom we have massive amounts of trade.
I'm going to do everything to burn that bridge, and then I'm going to call him.
I mean, it's amazing.
It's almost like fighting for three years, resulting in the death of a million some odd Russian and Ukrainians.
And then we're going to sit down and talk with Putin.
I'll give Carney credit for one thing, and I said it before he did.
Yes, the actual one potential export that there is some leverage for, at the very least with northern states, is electricity.
The surplus electricity that Quebec generates, they export to New York State, Vermont.
That's an actual natural resource that might be a little bit more difficult to compensate for in the northern states.
They want to withhold potash?
All it will do is force America to develop its own potash, its own lithium mines, and there's no shortage of it.
Or they'll just go to South America.
So we're governed by absolute idiots who think that they are economic, military, political equals in a battle in which they're not.
And it's no shade.
It's like in the war of...
There's no war.
In the sphere of podcasting...
I'm not within the same realm as the Tim Pools.
It's just the way it is.
When you want to come on my show, can I come on your show?
You don't have the same interests.
It's not a shameful thing to recognize your position, your geopolitical position, your economic position, your financial position of influence, but they sit there talking like they're equals.
And they're not.
Period. Now, I want to see this.
I want to bring this one up because it's...
I want to bring this one up.
Does I have the one of...
You'll have to take my word at it that Mark Carney's got three passports.
But so does Chrystia Freeland.
I mean, I was actually flabbergasted because the question I put into Grok was, does Chrystia Freeland have dual citizenship?
And then I'm like, oh, she doesn't have dual citizenship.
Darn it.
No, she doesn't have dual citizenship.
She has triple citizenship.
Passports for Canada where she was born, the United Kingdom where she became a citizen in 2018 during her time as a Canadian cabinet minister and Ireland through her grandparents' heritage.
There's no indication she renounced any of these.
Well, why was she renounced one that she just acquired in 2018?
How the hell do you acquire the citizenship of another country?
Was she serving at the time?
Hold on.
I don't want to make a mistake.
Was Chris Jeff Freeland an MP in 2018?
Before I freak out...
Serenity now.
Yes, Krista Freeland was a member of Parliament in 2018.
She became an MP in 2013 after winning a by-election in Toronto.
By 2018, she had been re-elected in the 2015 federal election, this time representing the riding of University Rosedale, which she's held since.
During that year, she was also serving as Canada's Minister of Foreign Affairs, a role she took in 2017 before becoming Deputy Prime Minister in 2019.
And later...
When? Did she become a British citizen?
Just make sure because sometimes you have to ask the question twice to Grok.
Thank you.
She's not a British citizen.
Hold on.
When did she get a British passport?
There's no indication she has ever obtained a British passport.
As mentioned earlier, she's a Canadian citizen.
Now I'm getting two conflicting answers.
How many passports does Christia Freeland hold?
Now I'm getting conflicting answers.
No, we're going to look this up.
That's wild.
Hold on.
Now I'm concerned.
If I've made a mistake, I'm going to have to go rectify.
Thank you.
Yeah, we're going to go check that one up afterwards.
All right.
What else?
Well, that's what's going on in Canada, people.
Hold on.
I'm going to go to the chat and then make sure if I've made a mistake, I'm going to go delete and correct.
Let me see here.
There are two Ireland's.
Ireland is not British.
Scrubbing in process.
Before I freak out, proceeds to freak out.
Let me see here.
Whoop, there it is.
Yes, conflicting answers.
Welcome to my world, says sleuth dog.
Ukrainian passport.
Well, that was the one I thought when I asked the question, reportedly.
All right, well, we're going to go look that up afterwards.
Okay, let's see what's going on in the chat over here.
We're going to go to some tipped questions, which we're going to bring up.
Canada's energy exports and electricity to the U.S. on a year.
There are 33 terawatts of the 4,700 terawatts the U.S. consumes.
That's less than one-tenth of one percent.
That may be true forced name change.
The question would be, however, where are those consumed?
And then it would be, it's one-tenth of what, let's just say it's one percent.
If it fulfills critical needs of a specific state just because of proximity, you got some negotiation there.

We got Encryptus.
Why aren't any of these retards mentioning the fact that if they piss off Trump, he will remove the military protection?
He is doing that now in Europe, just closed a key base in Greece.
Well, Encryptus, actually, thank you for mentioning that.
This was posted by Sam Cooper earlier today, who said, the most troubling rumors I've been hearing from a military source confirmed.
This would be devastating.
And it's a rumor because I think now Navarro, I thought Navarro had confirmed that it wasn't the case.
Pushing to remove Canada from the Intelligence Committee.
This is an FT, Financial Times exclusive.
Peter Navarro, one of U.S.
presidents closest advisors, is pushing for the U.S.
to remove Canada from the Five Eyes Intelligence Sharing Networks.
I made the joke that, yeah, well, if you remove Canada from them, you're actually going to be removing a few more eyes.
Like, literally, you're going to be removing the eyes from India, which has two eyes, and China, which has one eye.
Eyes in their name.
But no, that's...
It's definitely something that might possibly happen.
Forced Game Change says, if the Liberals win another election with Carney as leader, I'm going to Washington myself to bring back the invasion force.
Canada would be better off as a 51st state than under a pro-Hamas liberal government.
I said that, you know, the way it's going to happen, Trump doesn't want Canada as a 51st state anyhow.
He'll be more than happy to absorb all those who would accept American citizenship and leave.
And then you see what happens to a country.
R.B. Ham says, Hey Viva, Canadian trucker and PPC are here.
Still hoping to be on your show and raise awareness of my plight.
I sent you emails.
Let me do this here.
I'm going to screen grab this.
R.B. Ham.
Yeah, I think I've...
Okay, I'll do what I...
I'll absolutely do what I can.
No, I gotta go.
I'm still freaking out.
I gotta go fact check that thing now.
How could it possibly...
How many passports does Mark Carney have?
Mark Carney holds three passports.
He was born in Canada and is Canadian by birth.
He also obtained Irish citizenship in the 80s through his grandparents, who were Irish, making him an EU citizen as well.
Additionally, he became a British citizen in 2018.
Did it give me the answer then for Christia Freeland from Mark Carney?
How many passports does Christia Freeland hold?
Yeah, she's, as mentioned before, you dumb bummer.
Before, you also told me she owned three.
All right, well, let me go delete, correct, and retract, because that is what we do.
Okay, we're going to go here, and we're going to go here.
That is my number.
Okay, good.
Here, give me a second, people.
We've got to correct and amplify in.
Here, no, hold on.
Okay. We're going to go...
What's the best way to do this?
Delete and correct.
All right, hold on.
We're going to do this right here.
I deleted my last tweet, screenshot included.
It seems Grok gave an incorrect answer and...
By the looks of it, by the looks of it, it gave the info, it gave the info for Mark Carney as info on Chris, does it have it?
Christian Freeland.
And let's go here and do this.
Deletion, retraction, and correction.
Issued. Bam!
Okay, and then maybe we'll...
Okay, good.
Done it.
We've done our homework now.
Let me see if I've missed anything.
Darth Arlina says, I didn't see the vehicle move like what was stated in the court paper, but when you can't believe your lying eyes or ears...
Hey, he's telling a story.
He's got to tell the story in a compelling manner.
Just because Scruggs was never...
Okay, so that's it.
So we got all of this.
And now we got Sammy over in VivaBarnesLaw.locals.com says, Cuomo closed down Indian Point nuclear power plant.
Four years ago, it provided 2,000 megawatts of electricity and 25% of New York City electricity.
So go ahead and pull that lever, Canada, and give Trump a reason to lift the NRC regs to open Indian Point jobs, power, and more jobs, and more environmentally friendly energy because people think hydro is all fun and safe and clean and whatever,
but they flood a tremendous amount of lands which serve Native reservations that lead to mercury poisoning that they get from eating fish in these swamped-up lands where the mercury leaches out of the wood into the fish that natives eat and fish.
So, yeah, nuclear is, by most accounts, cleaner even than hydro.
But once hydro's set up, then it's good and free.
All right, let's go over to...
Oh, there was one more thing I wanted to bring up.
Oh, we're going to have...
No, I'll save these for the locals' after part.
Let me go to the chat on crumble and see what's going on there.
Canadian liberal party is corrupt as Fouke says ghost night, seven, seven, seven, either way, Viva, they both prepared to do more damage to Canada.
No, The funny thing is, some might say that you can make a strategic error because it forces them to say, oh, no, she doesn't have three passports.
All right, so it would be a bad thing if she does, and Mark Carney does.
Let me just see something.
Why did you tell me earlier that Chrystia Freeland...
Had three passports.
Oh, I never told you that Christopher Freeland had three passports.
I'm getting into a fight with Grok, people.
I gotta go see if I have my search results.
Yes, you did.
I have the screenshot.
Not in this particular thread.
Vivo, we should definitely talk about your use of AI and trusting it.
We certainly will.
No, we certainly will.
Encryptus, tell me what happened.
Tell me how this works.
So, Grok, as well as rest of LLMs that you use to search for something, don't actually know anything.
They're looking to give you an answer that you want to hear.
And Grok is one of the least...
It just happens to be one of the most up-to-date ones because it utilizes tweets.
I'm actually running a deep research right now on Christa Friedman to see if there was anything that might have been mentioned about that.
I'll have sources available for you in a few minutes.
It is not looking like she has any additional citizenship.
I will drop her report for you shortly in the private chat.
Amazing. Here I'm going to say this.
And here's Grox.
Explanation. That's interesting.
Well, no, it is...
I mean, it's...
I thought it was...
Yeah, okay.
Well, cool.
we go All right, cool.
Now let's have some fun.
Speaking of fact-checking and fact-checking the fact-checkers, I will continually fact-check myself, as I will continue to fact-check the other fact-checkers.
We have a few fun ones.
You might want to get your butts on over to locals because we're going to save the good one for last.
And a special video over on Locals.
Who do we want to put?
Yesterday I put out a video.
I'm going to be talking about the same story on The Unusual Suspects today about Sheldon Whitehouse's extracurricular support.
No, it's not extracurricular.
Sheldon Whitehouse's support of a series of grants that financially benefited his wife with apparently failing to disclose that there was a conflict of interest.
And he has yet to respond.
To the request to confirm or deny.
It's actually an amazing thing.
Watching his arrogance and pomposity with Kash Patel and others.
I went back to some of his confirmation hearings in 2020.
An arrogant, condescending asshole.
Can be described nothing other than that.
This is from the company that pays his wife a hefty consulting fee.
Ocean Conservancy granted $5.2 million to remove large debris from U.S. coastal waters.
Efforts will focus on bulky debris in remote locations that cannot be collected by hand in Alaska, California, Florida, and beyond.
$2.2 million to be awarded to the community organizations through national competitive programs.
This company, the Conservation Agency, whatever it is called, Conservancy, apparently paid his wife several million dollars or her Ocean Funk consulting firm several million dollars.
Here's another one.
Ocean Conservancy applauds latest round of NOAA grants supporting coastal restoration.
Today, the National Oceanic Atmospheric announced nearly $220 million for 32 new habitat restoration projects across the country.
And we're asking Sheldon, Sheldon Whitehouse, who in his examination of Kash Patel, along with Adam Schiff, and there was another one, I forget who, oh yeah, Cory Booker, were, in my view, trying to get Kash Patel to break the law.
To disclose what he was not allowed to disclose by way of his grand jury testimony, for which there appears to be an order of non-disclosure.
Sheldon Whitehouse corruptly voted for grants that directly benefited his wife by going from the Ocean Conservancy to her consulting firm Ocean Funk to his wife.
He's got some explaining to do.
End quick.
Okay. Yeah.
Thank you.
Okay. I'm going to save the rest for over on Locals People.
Let me go and make sure that I haven't missed any comments, and we'll see what's going on in the chat over here.
Those Democrats were trying so hard to get Kash Patel to perjure himself.
Total scumbags.
Not perjure himself.
That's coming from 70 Archlight.
They were trying to get him to violate a court order.
In the exact same way Adam Schiff...
When he was lying about Russiagate, was doing it knowing that no one could prove him wrong or contradict him without violating the confidentiality provisions of the closed-door committee hearings.
So it's the exact same tactic, mutatus mutandus.
Adam Schiff was lying with impunity about Russiagate because he knew that nobody could publicly contradict him without violating the confidentiality rules of those committee hearings.
And they were trying to get Kash Patel to disclose his grand jury testimony knowing that he couldn't.
By citing some stupid...
It's black and white.
It says it right here.
The witnesses can disclose it.
They can't disclose their own testimony if there's a gag order, if a court...
And from what I understood, and now I'm no longer quiet down, I don't know how to trust Grok anymore.
In the court in that case, the judge issued something of a gag order on what could be disclosed from that incident, from that trial, or the grand jury testimony.
And I think Cash knew it.
And he answered it perfectly, but Sheldon Whitehouse is an unethical piece of crap.
And now that is being further confirmed by the fact that he's apparently acting as unethical pieces of crap do by, you know, playing the moral high ground against Cash Fattel and the other nominees while...
financially benefiting himself as a result of his position as a senator.
RB Ham says renowned Nazi hunter says Canada still have a scores of war criminals who will likely never face justice.
Yep.
Yep, I'm aware of that as well.
I'm familiar with that as well.
And I have to say, look, at some point, a hundred-year-old person, they will never face justice.
I don't know if this makes me a bad person, but the idea of locking up a 100-year-old person for something they did 80 years ago, there's no minimizing it.
There's no justice.
At that point, in any event, you're releasing 100-year-olds from life in prison for medical conditions.
Convict them so that the record is straight, but locking up 100-year-olds is not justice in any event.
And Cryptus says...
The main issue with the mistake Grok made was that the previous, in the same conversation, it discussed Mark Carney, so it used that information as context for answering for Freeland.
It is not true.
I've confirmed after checking 30 credible sources that she is solely Canadian.
Okay. Lessons learned.
Everybody makes mistakes, and if you don't learn from them, that is the second mistake.
All right, let's go over to the locals after this.
We're going to have our after party, and I'm going to play a very funny video.
That will allow me to do that, which I always do after we end on Rumble.
P-break and energy break.
And that rhymes.
Everybody, thank you.
Unusual Suspects, go check it out.
It will be live live at 4 o'clock.
I got to drive down there.
Send them my assets.
Apparently, the technical term in the industry is assets for screen grabs, links, and videos.
Got to send them my assets so that I don't become a pain in their asset.
Bada bing, bada boom.
I used that joke with them.
4 o'clock.
Tomorrow, I'll be live at 12.30.
And that's it.
Let me now end on Rumble.
Be live from all 1230 people, and I'll probably put out a short car vlog this afternoon.
I'm trying to think of something interesting to cover.
We'll see what happens between now and 630.
Something will happen.
All right.
Updating the stream.
Rumble, if you're not coming, thank you all for being here.
Peace out, peeps.
