Trump Meets with Putin! Canada is Going Down in Flames..,. D.C. Cleanup AND MORE!
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Nuga, we will take a flashback for this intro video.
Back to Canada.
Behold.
Can I just ask quickly, what did you think of the Freedom Convoy?
I think it was horrendous, right?
I mean, these were terrorists causing grief to all of the residents of Ottawa.
Frankly, embarrassing Canadians like ourselves, embarrassing Albertans like ourselves.
I wish they never did that.
And I really do hope that they get what they deserve in court.
I think it was ridiculous.
The problem is asking APUs.
Anyway, so that's those are my.
I think whatever the crown asks for, the judicial system should be allowed to run.
I think it's absolutely ridiculous when politicians, like Trump is doing in the U.S., right, firing people in the judicial system.
That's unacceptable.
So Polyev and his some of the, well, Polyev first of all, not even as an MP right now, making comments that are contrary to what the judicial system is trying to do.
Completely inappropriate.
We don't need politicians.
They shouldn't be above the law.
They shouldn't have any jurisdiction over the law.
And you have to let the crown prosecutors do their job.
There's experts in this.
Like I said, terrorists deserve to go to jail.
And I hope they do get a substantial sentence.
We'll see what the judge gives.
Now, why did I start off the show with this yet again today?
We covered this a while back.
This was Alexa Lavois, who was on the streets, I think it was in Ottawa, asking Canadians, alleged Canadians, people passing themselves off as Canadians, what they thought about the Crown, that's the government in Canada, looking to jail Tamara Leach and Chris Barber, the so-called organizers of the Freedom Convoy, for seven and eight years, respectively, for nonviolent mischief convictions.
And this man, speaking on behalf of Canadians and Albertans, the Crown is the expert and they should go to jail for seven to eight years.
Now, the reason why I bring this back up, I won't belabor the insanity of saying the crown are the experts.
The government should get what they want.
You should be jailing non-violent political dissidents for non-violent mischief for longer than rapists and physical abusers get in Canada.
The guy was identified at one point, and I reached out to him privately to make sure that he was in fact the person that was identified by an account.
I forget who the account was that identified him, but he was identified.
And before I went on any tirade against the individual, I just wanted to make sure that it was in fact the person who was being identified in the post from wherever I'll show you here.
I DM the person.
And I knew I'm a neurotic individual.
You'd know this.
99.999% positive that it was him.
Pure as gold of Canada, that it was him, because he had clips from that interview and that scene on his Twitter handle.
But I just DM'd him and I just said, apparently you've been identified.
It was Leviathan.
Thank you.
It was Leviathan who identified them.
And I don't like identifying people on the internet, despite the fact that they choose to make themselves public.
And despite the fact that they, while calling the people terrorists, act like the terrorists.
I reached out and said, apparently you've been identified as the person in the Alexa Lavois interview in Ottawa.
Is it you?
If it is, I would like to speak to you openly about it.
I would love to have you on my channel.
Personally, I found what you said to be outrageous and fundamentally contrary to Western values.
I was curious when you volunteered the quote Canadians such as ourselves.
Open invitation if you want to come on and discuss.
I go live at three o'clock.
The person wrote back to me, and I don't, I've done this a couple of times now, but it's usually a very, very damn good reason, writes me back and says, feel free to follow me if you want to hear what I think.
I see from your account that you are from Florida.
I feel for you.
Hashtag sassy pants.
And I say, I'm from Montreal, you idiot.
I ran for, I didn't say you idiot.
I'm sorry.
I'm from Montreal.
I ran for federal office.
I moved to Florida.
It's beautiful here.
I just wanted to know if you were, in fact, the person in the video, but I think it's clear that you are.
Open invitation to come on and talk to my show.
He must have sent this before even reading my response.
He says, I was speaking as a longtime Albertan, which means he's not from Alberta.
Someone was suggesting he was born in a country that doesn't share Western values.
Pseudo-journalist Lavois Misrepresented me as an Ottawa man.
And in doing so, trying to fan the flames of division in the country.
I do not need you to speak openly.
I don't think Americans like you have much of a role in Canadian discourse hard passed.
Well, the idiot didn't know that I was from Canada, didn't know that I spent 43 years of my life born, raised, and ran for office in Canada.
And then he does what he thinks anybody on earth cares about.
Oh, oh, Viva, I see you only got so many votes.
I see.
Then he writes back, oh, sorry, you felt you had to leave.
Sorry, you felt you had to leave after this result.
Wow.
And then he blocked me.
This is the level of insanity that's going on in Canada.
I would dare say, not even from Canadians, but also from Canadians.
And ordinarily, I would have kept my DMs private, except the little bastard thinks I'm American, then says, no, shut up, you're American.
Oh, you're from Canada.
Oh, you left to Florida.
I see.
Shut up.
I don't want to talk to you.
Oh, by the way, did you notice it said fearless in his profile link?
Unbelievable.
This is the level of cowardice.
It's tyranny.
It's cowardice.
And these are the people calling freedom-loving, patriotic Canadians the terrorists.
We're going to get into a lot of stuff about Canada today, but before we do, off a little bit on the time today, because we are driving down.
We're here now in Chattanooga for the Viva Barnes Law weekend.
It's a 1776 fundraiser, and we've got a weekend event starting tomorrow and Sunday.
And it's going to be awesome.
We drove down from north of Chattanooga, about an hour and a half, two hours north, where, as many of you saw, I'm proficient in firearms right now.
I'm joking, but not really joking.
Before we get into it, just want to make sure we are live.
I tried to upgrade the internet, everybody.
I didn't cheap out, but I actually could not even upgrade to speedier internet.
So I hope it's good enough and I hope it holds up.
Before we get into today's show, we're going to talk about Russia meeting.
Very interesting, I would say, presuasion being used by Trump as it relates to setting expectations for that meeting.
And also, it's very, very astute negotiation and setting the grounds, the brickwork for what is coming up with that summit between Putin and Trump up in Alaska, Canada, and lots of other fun stuff.
But let me just double-check one thing before we go.
We are live across all platforms.
And let me see what I look like here.
Let me refresh and just see how smooth the internet is or isn't.
All right, not bad, not bad.
That's a little tinny because I don't have my good mic, but the internet is working.
All right, people, before we get into today's show, I want to thank our two sponsors for today's show.
Amazing stuff coming out of Black Forest Supplements.
Let me make sure that you're not going to get blown out by the audio.
Studies have been done to show that the flavanols in cocoa stimulate stem cells to come out of your bone marrow like bees in a beehive in your bloodstream.
And they go out and they find wherever it needs to be repaired.
If it's in your heart, they'll fix it.
If it's in your liver, they'll fix it.
If it's your skin, they'll fix it.
And so we can eat foods like high flavonol cocoa in order to be able to actually get the stem cells to work a little bit better.
Now, how do we know this actually functions, works in people?
Well, clinical studies have been done with high flavonol cocoa to show that in like men who are in their 60s with heart disease, they could actually eat just have two cups of dark chocolate hot cocoa a day for a month.
And they doubled the amount of stem cells in their bloodstream and their circulation improved measurably.
I'm going to stop it there.
People, I'm going to give you the link to the website in a second here.
Black Forest Supplements.
I cannot hear the words flavanol without thinking of Professor Frank from The Simpsons, but there's insane benefits to cocoa flavanols.
The compounds found in cocoa boost nitrous, nitric oxide, improve heart health, regenerate brain cells before you roll your eyes.
Check it out.
Dark chocolate, by the way.
Dark chocolate has the benefits.
When it's sweetened with sugars and cream, it loses a lot of those benefits.
Black Forest has created the first ever high-flavanol cocoa powder packed with everything your body actually needs.
It's only 20 calories.
You can mix it with coffee, protein shakes.
It tastes amazing.
It boosts your stem cell production.
Hollywood elites drop tens of thousands of dollars on placenta stem cells, All this other crap, but you can drink cocoa powder and get the same benefits without selling your soul for it.
Brain fog, energy, it helps with both.
I've worked out a deal here, by the way.
Go to Black Force Supplements to hook you up with a 40% off your offer for the next 48 hours.
Stuff always sells out, so don't wait too long.
Go to blackforestsupplements.com forward slash fry, and you'll get 40% off your order.
Don't go into debt over it, but if you ever do get into debt, people, hold on.
This is the second sponsor of today's show, and then we're going to get on with our show.
PDS debt, it's an amazing thing.
The system isn't broken.
It's rigged.
If you're buried in debt, that's exactly how they want it.
I was, you know, I buy things online and I see offers to finance things that people don't need.
People take up the offers, think that, oh, well, I'll pay for it over time so it doesn't really count.
You get buried in debt, paying interest on things that you did need in the first place.
If your debt is out of control, PDS is here to help.

PDS debt is A plus rated by the Bureau of Better Businesses, the three B's.
It boasts thousands of five-star reviews on Google, holds a five-star rating on a TrustPilot.
Why?
Because PDS has helped hundreds of thousands of people get out of debt.
I don't need it, and I'm fortunate not to have needed to get out of debt.
But if you are, go to pdsdebt.com slash fry.
That is pdsdebt.com/slash fry.
See how you can get out of debt and start living, saving your own money, spending your money on what you need, and not on things that you don't.
People, the links are in the description.
Check it out.
Okay, we are in Chattanooga.
I was north of Chattanooga and I went to a gun range.
I passed my firearm license up in Canada because for those of you who don't know, you got to do a two-day course.
You got to pass an exam.
You got to get a background check.
If you're married, you got to get your wife or spouse to sign off on your authorization to own a firearm.
And that is only for a long arm.
And you can't own firearms in Canada for personal defense.
You can only own long arms if you pass the course for hunting.
And there's laws up the wazoo.
You can't store a loaded shotgun.
You've got to store the guns away from the ammunition in different locations.
You got to have trigger locks on your shotgun.
And so help me goodness.
If they suspect that you're buying a firearm for personal defense, you will get rejected.
That's not the way it is in America, people.
And I love the way it is in America.
And I fully appreciate why it is that way in America.
I went to a firing range yesterday with Ginger Ninja.
He showed me the ins and outs, the basics of everything.
I didn't want to play the long video.
I'm going to play this.
Listen to the fizzing sound of the bullet soaring, piercing, skimming through the air.
The term is called hitting steel because they have these steel plates.
And I hit a two-foot steel plate, two feet wide from a thousand yards.
That's almost a thousand meters for those of you who are in the Canadian.
Check this out.
Now, Ginger Ninja, you can follow him, Ginger Ninja 1776 on Twitter.
He's a savant when it comes to ballistics, firearms, and everything.
Set it up and calibred the truth it up and I took a shot.
Watch this.
Recording now?
Yeah.
Okay, so we're going.
This is my first.
Recording now.
Yeah.
Okay, so we're going.
This is my first shot.
Not the first shot with the rifle, the first shot at a two-foot target at a thousand yards.
In Canada, that's called a thousand meters.
That's a kilometer.
We don't do that comedy now.
Okay, so what am I looking for exactly?
Find number 40 and go down out there at number 20.
Look where it is.
It's all the way in the back.
It was under number two, okay?
That's like a quadruple.
Do I go for three or two?
So come down from the number boards.
Yeah, I see like a little red.
Yeah.
Okay, so am I going for the red under three or two?
So number two is easier to see the face of the target.
It's like turned a little bit.
And you have a sandbag under the stock so that you just micro adjust to get it on target.
Okay, so now we are hot stuff.
I was talking about myself there.
All right, now so you're going to hold on that red dot.
Make sure your optic isn't moving.
Yeah, and make sure that like you can touch it, but don't be using any input here.
Okay, use all here to raise and lower and move around.
And just make sure it's dead steady.
Dead steady.
And then just slowly pull that trigger directly to the rear.
in it for the physical of the projectile through the air yeah How flipping cool is that?
Listen.
I don't know if you heard it.
Listen.
Pew!
Yeah!
Oh, my goodness.
Did that take time to get there?
Holy shit.
It was dead center.
And then I got a thousand-yard club sticker.
It's a wild thing.
First of all, when you get over the fear of firing a handgun because we're taught that they are like spontaneous weapons of mass destruction.
And I'm saying, you know, Tim Poole used the analogy once upon a time that, you know, why are you afraid of other people carrying guns?
Well, they're going to use them to do harm.
Why wouldn't you be as scared of other people driving cars?
Are you afraid that people driving cars are going to start randomly ramming them into crowds?
I am actually, which is why you should set up pedestrian walkways and set up the bolus, whatever the hell they're called.
But once you understand that a firearm for personal self-defense, it's a God-given right to defend your persons from aggressors.
And it's a God-given right that Canadians don't have.
And it's a God-given right that has been virtually criminalized in Canada.
We had an amazing day at the range.
We were there literally from 9 to 5 for the pause of the interview with Paul Dans.
And let me just show.
Look, I'm not going to, I'll stop after this.
Let me just show you what I was doing.
This is the first time I've ever fired a handgun because handguns in Canada are basically illegal.
You got to have a special license for them.
You can only have them for like law enforcement or whatever or competitive shooting.
And you can't transport them.
You can't do anything with them.
This was my first time.
This was my second time actually firing one ever.
Check this out.
Usually the dot is up high.
Yep.
Yep.
All right.
So now.
So once you're floating on that target, then just slowly pull the trigger.
That's good.
You, you, I didn't flinch.
I barely flinched at all.
But it didn't, it didn't shoot.
That's because you didn't chamber around yet.
I got to bring it back.
That's because I don't know.
Check this out now.
Oh my goodness.
Daddy.
Yep.
It's your worst enemy.
I was going to say he's going to intentionally miss his worst enemy.
I'm Canadian lumpboy.
Nobody's saying.
Look at this.
Three for three distractions.
Bottom line, I went eight for eight second time around.
It was fantastic.
Viva, we have inherent rights.
We do not need effing government to tell me about any rights, says a special SOV from our locals community.
I agree with you, special.
I mean, it's, and you only appreciate it once you get out of the asylum.
It's like, oh, what's that?
I'm sorry.
I can't own a firearm for the purposes of self-defense because the criminals are now going to know that none of us have firearms for the purposes of self-defense.
And so now basically Canadians are sitting ducks in their own homes, quite literally, where they have Ontario police telling you to leave the fobs for your vehicles at your front door so the armed criminals who have real guns because you don't can come and take your shit.
Basically, bottom line.
And yeah, that's what I did yesterday.
It was absolutely amazing.
And my shoulder is a little sore only from one of the shotguns, which had turkey bucket.
And it was so powerful.
It was like getting kicked in the chest every time you took a shot with it.
All right, enough of that.
I had an experience.
It was a first experience from my life.
And Canadian man trains to take back the forests.
That's in our locals community where we have great means.
All right, we're not going to get out of Canada just yet.
We've got to go through the madness in Canada because it's madness.
It's madness, but there's some good news to this.
You all remember it?
Jeff Evelyn was on my channel Monday.
Was it Monday?
Jeff Evelyn, the man who got a $28,000 fine for going in the forest, violating a no going in the forest ban in Nova Scotia, got a $28,000 ticket.
I put out a tweet, said this man needs to go on Joe Rogan.
I don't think it has anything to do with anything.
I'm just putting not even together the dots.
It just happened this way that Joe Rogan actually mentioned his story during the last episode of Rogan, or at least one of these recently, talking about Jeff Evelyn.
Listen to this.
It's wild.
It made its way to Rogan's ears.
That's fantastic.
Shut up.
They're fining people for walking in the woods.
You hear about that?
Where?
In Saskatchewan?
Is that where it is, Jamie?
Walking in the woods.
Yeah, this guy got fined 20.
Rogan's got to work on his Canadian geography, but that doesn't matter.
Saskatchewan, Saskatchewan is the Texas of America with Alberta, Manitoba.
That's sort of more Central West.
This was Nova Scotia, but good enough, Rogan.
Good enough.
They told you that if you get caught in the woods, because it's so hot out, they're worried about wildfires.
There's no wildfires, but they're worried about wildfires.
Every year you worry about wildfires.
So to combat this, they can find people $28,000 to walk into the woods.
That's a lot of money.
And one guy did it.
One guy's like, fuck you.
I'm going to the woods.
And then he went viral, of course.
Man.
Which is a good move.
Probably.
What's going on in this is the guy?
I mean, $28,000 move.
They're putting thousands of people in jail for social media posts.
Oh, yeah.
I'm fairly certain that's the CTV News article that Rogan's referring to.
No, banana stuff.
These fuck it's getting everybody's going communist.
Yeah, some countries more than others and some countries faster than others.
So we're trying to see if, you know, I see that on the one hand, you know, to get on Rogan, it's not a one-trick pony type thing.
There's got to be, there's a story to Jeff Evely as well.
I mean, Evely is a veteran, despite the fact that Canadian media will not refer to him as that.
20 years, served in Afghanistan, Iraq, 20-year veteran.
He's got a story, and he's got a zeitgeist that caused him to be the man actually still fighting for and defending, attempting to, the rights of Canadians.
The news in that, however, is that we've got that going on, but things are just going crazier and crazier in Canada, specifically as relates to the fires.
Let me see.
Hold on one second.
City of Mississauga, no.
No, hold on.
Oh, hold on.
Yes, here we go.
Jessica Rose, who you know as a computational theorist.
She's a scientist.
She's wicked smart.
She's been on the channel also, I want to say more than a half dozen times.
She messaged me and said, you know, this is about mineral acquisition in Nova Scotia.
This is not about keeping people out of the woods so they can prevent forest fires.
This is about something more sinister, more greedy from the government.
And she's saying now, called it from the real Mr. Bench, who writes as follows.
A man whose opinions sometimes ruffle feathers.
This is from the news.
This is what he's writing.
Frasier buddy Hebb is firmly against uranium mining in Nova Scotia, especially on land he owns.
That's why he's concerned by a phone call he received Thursday night from his MLA for West Hants, Melissa Sheehi Richard.
Heb says the province was seeking his approval to use his private road to see what's there.
She said they had their own department and their own geologist that was going to come and do this for the government.
Back in the 70s and 80s, this area of West Hants was flagged as being rich in uranium deposits.
At one time, Hebb worked for a mining company here that he says drilled and tested for uranium, but it was never fully mined.
A provincial ban shut it down in 1981.
The Houston government, however, lifted the uranium ban earlier this year and identified this area where Hebb stands and two other locations in Lutenberg County in Anti-Ganish County as uranium exploration sites.
The province Put out a call for bids, but no one applied.
Hebb's not budging either.
I was on the phone with her for damn near an hour, I would think.
And she tried to convince me the whole time that this was going to happen, whether we liked it or not.
We reached out to West Hance MLA Melissa Sheehi Richard for comment, but didn't hear back by deadline.
In a statement to CTV News, Premier Tim Houston said, Emotions are clearly running high, and there's been a misunderstanding.
The government of Nova Scotia has not requested access to this property owner's access road for any purpose.
We're not going to open uranium mines unless it's an industry-led project.
And at this time, industry has not expressed any interest.
So, floating the idea, Jessica Rose is smart, wicked smart, and I don't defer to people who I think are smarter than me, but I definitely listen to them.
There are people hypothesizing that what's going on in Nova Scotia has to do with the government attempting to either acquire private lands or acquire lands and exploit them for mining, and that this pretext of keeping people out of Crown lands is just that merely protection.
Keeping an eye on it, I'm not yet fully sold because it's not something that's unique to Nova Scotia.
They've done it in New Brunswick, they've done it in Newfoundland.
To me, it's just idiot politicians being the reactionary idiots that they are, teacup tyrants who want to strip you of all your rights for your own protection.
And so, at the end of the day, you'll get used to being told when you can and cannot go into Crown lands, despite the fact that your tax dollars pay for it.
You'll get used to being told when you can and cannot leave your house like they did during COVID.
You'll get used to your 15-minute cities, and you will be thankful for the freedoms, the privileges that the government grants you.
Because when they're there, you're born with them, their rights.
When the government takes them, it's an exception.
And when they decide it's time to give them back to you, then they have transformed your rights into privileges.
And that is exactly what we are seeing right now in Canada.
While they absolutely destroy that country, and I say they, the globalists, are absolutely destroying the country.
You recall, it was not that long ago that they hold on actually.
It's not that long ago that they were talking about doubling the population of Halifax by whatever 2040 or expecting it to double by 2040.
Well, there's something else that has doubled in Halifax in the recent history, and that's the homeless population.
Check this out.
Well, before we even do that, by the way, just when I say it's the force fires being used as a pretext to strip you of your rights, and they say, law-abiding citizens, you can't go in the woods, law-abiding citizens, you can't own firearms because criminals do bad things with them.
Well, this is coming out of Nova Scotia.
When was this?
August 14th.
Police seek to identify man suspected of setting fire at Nova Scotia power station.
Man indicted a spool of wire with a torch, say crimes, says Crime Stoppers.
Nova Scotia crime stoppers is asking the public health to identify the man they believe deliberately set a fire at a Nova Scotia power station in Fall River, Nova Scotia.
I've actually been there.
First responders were called to a fire station, yada, yada, yada.
An investigation found that a man used to torch the set of blaze a spool of wire next to a building on the property.
RCMP say other spools of wire were found with burn damage from an incendiary device.
This is the individual.
Take your wildest guesses.
Homeless?
Crazy?
Not from Canada?
Who knows?
The bottom line is: as they're keeping law-abiding citizens out of the woods, which might actually deter arson, arsons are doing what arsons do: break the law and set stuff on fire.
Nothing sounded more Canadian than that, eh?
But coming out of Canada talking about how beautiful, how beautiful, I say, diversity is, how beautiful open borders are, how beautiful it is that the Canadian population is being replaced.
But if you notice it, you're a bigot.
It's very amazing.
They want to double the population of Canada, Project Century, by 2100 to 88 million people.
They want to double the population of Halifax or are expecting it to double to 2040.
This one's from the summer.
This one's a little old, but the homelessness nearly doubles Over two years, new report shows.
New statistics detail the number of people experiencing homelessness in Halifax regional municipality has nearly doubled over the last two years.
So, you get a population that doubles because of mass migration open borders.
You double your homeless population, oddly enough, because A, the price of property gets jacked up.
People who can't afford it get pushed onto the streets.
Some of the people you brought in who are unskilled labor end up on the streets.
Some of them, by the way, end up poaching fish from riverways because they don't know the laws of Canada.
This actually happened in Ontario.
I think it was Brampton.
You can check it out.
Others end up bathing in open riverways.
Others end up on the streets, homeless people who end up breaking the law, get into trouble, etc.
But this is the price to pay because you don't have sufficient low-skilled labor in Canada, apparently.
And diversity is good.
Diversity is our strength.
And that's why you've opened up your borders in Canada, in the UK, in Europe.
And that's why you see exactly what you see happening, which was predictable.
And I would dare say at this point in time, quite clearly part of some plan to get everybody used to 15-minute cities, to being told when you can and cannot leave your homes, when you can and cannot access public lands.
And you'll be thankful for the privilege when the government says you can go outside for your one hour of exercise and you can go get everything you need within that vicinity.
You don't need to go into the forest.
You don't need to go hiking.
You don't need the natural beauty that is Canada, that made Canada what it was.
Canada's uranium salesman was Stephen Harper.
If I can get that, let me refresh because I think I've gotten kicked out of studio.
Give me one second here.
All right, people, let's see if I see myself here.
I'm going to go like this.
It seems that it won't let me log back in on my laptop.
Let me see if this is going to work.
I'm off my phone.
Let me just go and refresh on the interwebs and see if I'm back here.
Refresh.
Here we go.
Okay, I see me, but I don't hear me.
Hold up.
Enable sound.
Oh my goodness.
There seems to be something glitching here.
Can you guys hear me?
Let me know if you can hear me while I while I slowly try to refresh This now, I don't know if it's my computer or not.
Okay, let's open another window.
You can hear me?
All right.
Well, we're going to do it like this.
Sorry, but I won't be able to share the screen now until I can log back in adequately.
I'm going to have to close a bunch of crap down here.
Apologies if you can, if you're going to lose.
Is it smoother off my phone?
Who knows?
All right, let's try to open up another window and just get back in here via Rumble.
Give me two seconds, Peeps.
I'm going to try to troubleshoot this.
It might be my computer.
Got to talk about it.
I got to be able to share so that I can.
There we go.
Now I can hear me.
So let me see if I can get back in in Rumble Studio.
Rumble Studio.
Click on this.
Here we go.
Sign in.
All right.
You're going to see two of me.
It's going to be double the pleasure, double the fun with Viva.
All right, hold on.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Let's do this here like this.
Boom.
Boom.
And now we end up.
Just get out, Viva.
Let me go kick this.
Let me kick this face.
All right, peeps.
Sorry about that.
Oh, who put up a picture of UFC?
We've got a big fight tomorrow night.
And I'm sort of on the fence as to who I go for.
No, I'm yeah.
Sorry, guys.
It was, I got frozen and then locked out of studio.
What's up?
Okay, get out of here.
I'm in, I'm in a hotel with my kid right now who's been very good while I do this.
All right, that's what's going on in Canada.
There might have been some other stuff, but we'll move on because I think enough people have had enough people have had enough about Canada and what the hell is going on there.
Let's just cleanse our palette before we get into Russia with a little bit of who's that who's the who's the mayor of Chicago?
I forget his name right now.
The biggest idiot on earth who claims that Trump is, by the way, you will know them by their accusations of others.
You got to hear this.
This is just cleanse our palate.
We've got to remind ourselves that it's not just bad up in Canada.
It's also bad in some places in America.
They tend to be blue states, people.
Flipping guy.
Oh, yeah.
I see you.
I see you live in Florida.
I feel for you.
Yeah.
Florida is a free state with happy people, smiling faces.
It's got its issues, as does everywhere.
But one of those issues is not tyranny.
One of those issues is not being a boot-licking biatch of the government.
Listen to what Chicago's mayor has to say.
Okay, fine.
Since you are begging, I do believe that Donald Trump is intimidated.
I know.
I think.
I do appreciate you begging.
So I would just say it like this: that the president has always been intimidated by the intellectual prowess of black men.
And so, of course, he would speak in those petite and puerile terms.
Because I do believe that Donald Trump is intimidating.
I know.
I think.
I do appreciate you begging.
So I would just say it like this.
Black men.
What kind of stupid thing is that to say?
Does he need to be reminded of all of the notable?
I don't even want to say black people that Trump has in his administration has worked with.
Does he forget?
I mean, it's such a load of projection to think that A, Trump is intimidated by the mayor of Chicago who's got some bigger problems to deal with, who's got some bigger issues to deal with.
I mean, it's pathological, and I think it's, I mean, it's a Democrat thing or a progressive thing.
They can't help but project and they can't help but lie.
Like the air that they breathe, Adam Schiff lies and projection.
What was the one that what's his face just came out with?
Oh, it was Gavin Newsome.
Gavin Newsom just lying.
Oh, no, no, it was Swalwell.
I forget it.
Okay.
That was the cleansing of the palate.
It's pathological and identify it, avoid it.
Let's get to Russia, people.
I hope the video that I wanted to play, I couldn't upload it from my phone, but it was, here we go.
Trump is meeting with Putin today.
They have this summit up in Alaska.
And Trump was taking some questions, talking about what's at stake.
Before we go to the sound clip that I want to get to, let's just refresh all of our respective memories on what the heck is going on.
And yes, we got to go for Fox News this time.
From admiration to Alaska, a timeline of Trump and Putin's high-stake encounters.
Trump has described Alaska talks as feelout meeting to determine Ukrainian ceasefire possibilities.
Trump is, you know, he's being hard on both sides.
He's being hard on Zelensky.
He's being hard on Putin, suggesting that Putin doesn't look like he really wants peace, that he'll know within the first 20 seconds of this meeting whether or not they do want peace, that Putin is sort of employing forceful tactics, thinking it's going to help in the negotiations, but it won't.
But Zelensky is the one who has to ultimately decide what they want to sacrifice, give up, concede for the purposes of a negotiated peace.
Just reading from the article real quick, President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin are set to meet in person on Friday for the first time in six years when they get together in Anchorage, Alaska.
Here's a history.
Early mutual admiration between Putin and Trump.
Trump-Putin holds first in-person meetings in Germany during G20 summit.
Trump and Putin shake hands at the apex.
And I do all remember what was going on between 2016, 2017, and no, sorry, what was it?
It was 2016 to 2019.
Trump couldn't do anything in terms of negotiating with Putin because we were living through the Russia Gate hoax, such that if Trump did anything that was mildly amenable to negotiations, discussions with Putin, it would have been, he would have been described as what he was.
He would have been negotiating with his buddy who helped him get elected because we were still being told that Russia helped Trump get elected when in reality, Trump had actually, Putin and Russia had actually helped Hillary Clinton, even though she didn't get elected, by not disclosing derogatory information on Hillary regarding her health, being addicted to drugs, having mad psychotic mood swings.
Russia had that intel and didn't disclose it because they were trying to hold it over her head, thinking that she would get elected.
Everything the Democrats said about Trump and Russia was a lie and a projection.
But the bottom line, all this is going on when Trump had his hands tied in terms of how he could deal with Putin.
Summit draws Trump Putin to Finland's presidential palace 2018, 2019.
Trump says he, Putin, had tremendous discussion in Osaka, Japan.
What happens in 2020?
Oh, look at this.
Just skip over four years of stolen election because it was.
Biden coming in and basically facilitating the minor incursion of Putin into the Donbass region, the east, and what ultimately led to this war.
2025 phone calls between Trump and Putin as war in Ukraine rages on.
Now they're scheduled to meet.
Okay.
Trump put out, he answered some questions.
It was a very interesting interview that audio only, but I caught it while I was listening, while I was driving, and actually want to play something which is very interesting if you know what you're listening to, but maybe it's not as subtle as I think it is.
Let me bring it up.
This was an answer to one of the questions today as it relates to the meeting that's coming up with him and Trump.
Him and Putin.
Thank you for coming back to take questions.
We saw that Russia continued its violence into Ukraine last night, launching even more drones.
What did you make of that?
I think they're trying to negotiate.
He's trying to set a stage.
I mean, in his mind, that helps him make a better deal.
It actually hurts him.
But in his mind, that helps him make a better deal if they could continue the killing.
Maybe it's a part of the world.
Maybe it's just his fabric, his genes, his genetics.
But he thinks that makes him gives him strength in negotiating.
I think it hurts him, but I'll be talking to him about it later.
If he's on the table for discussions today, Mr. President, are the territorial swaps on the table?
Will you be discussing that?
They'll be discussed, but I've got to let Ukraine make that decision.
And I think they'll make a proper decision.
But I'm not here to negotiate for Ukraine.
I'm here to get him at a table.
And I think you have two sides.
Look, Vladimir Putin wanted to take all of Ukraine.
This is it.
If I wasn't president, he would right now be taking all of Ukraine.
So there's a number of, some people are going to say, by the way, you know, confession through projection, Trump accusing Putin of thinking aggression Is somehow going to be better for the negotiation table.
Maybe that's kind of what Trump was in fact doing with the nuclear statements of a week ago, with repositioning submarines, with some of his rhetoric.
But it's the last part that is particularly interesting, this right here.
We're talking about the territory, whether or not Zelensky is going to agree to concede something, because if it weren't for Trump or at least Trump intervening now, according to Trump, Putin would have taken all of Ukraine.
Vladimir Putin wanted to take all of Ukraine.
If I wasn't president, he would right now be taking all of Ukraine.
Now, what do I think is the interesting presuasion tactic being employed here by Trump?
And I say to his credit, it's arguable, at least according to some, as to whether or not Putin ever wanted to take all of Ukraine, whether or not he could have even feasibly taken all of Ukraine, even if he wanted to.
That was the argument against the Putin is Hitler with global aspirations in that, A, they're struggling or at least fighting hard to take control over the eastern provinces, Crimea, they've done it.
It was arguable whether or not he would have ever even had the capabilities of taking over all of Ukraine, let alone the world, hence the Hitler-Putin comparisons fail to the ground, you know, fail on their face.
But it was also arguable as to whether or not he ever wanted all of Ukraine, whether or not it was even feasible.
And some would say that he never wanted all of Ukraine.
But Trump setting up the stage now for what is going to be the negotiated settlement that is going to be very unpalatable for the pro-Ukraine crowd, obviously, but would also be not palatable for those who think that Zelensky in conceding territory would be giving everything up.
Because what Trump is trying to lead people to think right now believe, or at least by way of groundwork for these discussions, is that Putin would have taken all of Ukraine.
And so when Zelensky, who is going to agree to make concessions, concede certain territory, well, that's a good deal because otherwise Putin would have taken all of Ukraine and he will take all of Ukraine if this battle rages on and the U.S. stops supporting Zelensky.
So maybe it's not quite as subtle as I think it was, think it is.
But what Trump is doing is basically saying, look, overstating what Putin wants so that when they get to their negotiated settlement, everybody's going to feel that they've made concessions and everybody's going to feel that they got something out of it because that is what has to happen in a negotiated settlement as opposed to a victory.
Victory is when you crush and you take by force, you know, sometimes politically, sometimes strategically, and you defeat, vanquish your adversary, and you take it.
A negotiated settlement, everybody's got to give something up.
And so in some sense, I think Trump is overstating what Putin wants so that when you get to this negotiated settlement, that he's going to make sure Zelensky takes.
That everyone's going to feel that they've given, everyone's going to feel that they got, and everybody's going to go on with their respective lives after having engaged in a war that has now cost hundreds of thousands, if not over a million lives.
But one thing that's also clear from the answers that Trump was giving is that Zelensky is going to agree to this.
Now, he can't make Zelensky, he can't agree for Zelensky, but he sure as sugar can make Zelensky understand that he's got to agree to it.
Despite what some people are suggesting is Zelensky's attempt to sabotage these talks from the hill, Marjorie Taylor Greene accuses Zelensky of trying to, quote, sabotage Trump Putin's summit with drone strikes in Russia.
The funny thing is, depending on what news you listen to, you'll hear different things first or last.
I had heard that Zelensky or Ukraine had launched drone strikes into Russia on the eve of the Putin summit and that he was trying to sabotage these talks via an escalation or trying to trigger Zelensky into striking back on the eve of this summit for the purposes of sabotaging it.
Then when I hear the question, I hear a journalist say, well, what is Putin doing?
Putin striking Zelensky now on the eve of these talks.
I'm like, oh, wait a minute.
That's not exactly what I understood by way of news.
And now I don't know what to believe.
So I'm going to have to wait a bit.
Because you have both sides saying the other side is striking and trying to sabotage the peace talks.
Let's hear what Rep Taylor Green has said.
She's been good very recently.
And despite what people say about her, principled, and I will say strategic and politically savvy.
Rep Taylor Green accuses Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky.
I just realized, by the way, you got Volodymyr and Vladimir.
I never even realized they basically have like iterations of the same first name.
I'm dead sometimes.
Okay, they're accusing him of using a drone strike to sabotage upcoming peace talks with President Trump and the Russian president.
Ukraine launched an attack on Russia on Thursday, killing at least one person and injuring over a dozen more.
A day before the high stakes meeting between Putin, on the eve of the historic peace talks between Trump and Zelensky, Putin, Zelensky does this, Green wrote in a post.
Zelensky does not want peace and obviously trying to sabotage President Trump's heroic efforts to end the war in Ukraine.
Now, what's interesting is the journalist in her question to Trump, if you recall it, says Zelensky's doing it.
Putin's doing it.
If Putin is responding to a drone strike from Zelensky, well, I guess you could just say they're waging in war.
But then the question is, who's causing it to trigger the response from the other, at the very least, in the context of these discussions?
She added, I pray peace prevails.
Ukrainian embassy did not immediately respond to the Hills request for comment.
Green has been a vocal critic of U.S. involvement in the more than three-year war.
Frequently stand Biden for providing arms to Ukraine as an American ally.
Bipartisan group of lawmakers has proposed secondary sanctions on Russia's trade partners to help deflate their ability to fund the war overseas.
But the Trump administration has delayed the plans to move new tariffs on the Kremlin and its trading partners, which were expected to go into effect Friday.
And then we get into this description of what's going on here.
Thursday, Putin lauded Trump's making energetic and sincere efforts towards peace.
The meeting, Trump's first with Russian leader since his first administration, will take place at joint base Elemendorf Richardson, notably without Zelensky.
The Ukrainian leader signaled earlier this week that a follow-up trilateral was possible as ceasefire proposals advance.
But head of Friday summit, Zelensky said he believes Putin's bluffing about intentions to end the war.
And I would call that a little bit of confession through projection.
The bottom line is: I don't know what to believe right now.
I got Marjorie Taylor Greene, who has been good, saying Zelensky is trying to sabotage it with drone strikes on Russia on Thursday.
Then you got the journalists not mentioning any such drone strikes, suggesting it's Putin acting aggressively on the eve of this.
And I'll say they're probably both right.
They probably both did it.
And then the only question is, Putin retaliating for Ukrainian drone strikes in the context of a war on the eve of the summit.
Who's trying to sabotage what?
The bottom line is there needs to be a peace.
There will be a peace.
It's only a question of when and how much and at what cost this peace is obtained.
So that's that.
Not yet.
My kid has been very good.
He's saying that it's raining outside anyhow.
There's nothing we're going to do.
Although we are going to go to the exercise room and exercise.
Oh, there's a super chat.
A crumble, France, not a super chat.
What's this craziness?
We got King of Bill Tong in the house.
It says Bill Tong is one of the highest protein snacks in the world, boasting nearly 50% protein packed with B12 creatine, iron, zinc, and more.
Visit Biltongusa.com and use code Viva for 10% off.
It's flipping delicious, made in America.
Anton has a channel called Eat at Anton's.
It's amazing stuff.
Get it.
Delicious, healthy.
And there's that.
Let's see what's going on with the chat in vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
And now that I realize I haven't been in the chat because my computer closed down, we got a tipped question over on viva barneslaw.locals.com.
I recognize that, song.
Check this out.
Hold up.
We're going to have one hell of a fun time this weekend, peeps.
Here we go.
Garbo.
I know that dog.
I met that dog the last time I was here.
Garbo is hoping she sees you and Barnes again here in Chattanooga this weekend.
Until is empty.
I'm here.
She will.
And we will.
Sure as sugar.
People.
Let me get a couple more things here.
Let me do some shameless self-promotion.
If you want to get some merch, go to vivafry.com.
Get a shirt.
Get something.
It'll support the channel.
You can wear some cool merch, drink out of a cool mug.
I stole the idea of this one.
If you turn it sideways, it says be a force multiplier.
And I stole it because I saw a mug that said F this S-H-I-T.
And then when you turned it sideways, you saw what it was saying.
And when it was sitting upright but sideways like that, you couldn't really make out what it was.
I liked it.
And I came up with that idea first.
So get some merch if you want to Viva Fry.
If you want to support Robert Barnes and myself and the work that we do, vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
And if you want to send stuff, P.O. Box139 in Boca Raton, Florida, send baseball cards, UFC fighting cards.
We're going to do unpacking on Fridays.
We were at, what's up?
Yeah.
Not yet, but soon.
We were at a, what's it called?
Not a gift shop, an antique store.
And we saw unopened packs of baseball cards.
It was 1993.
The kid just spoiled the punchline.
They looked like unopened packs of baseball cards from 2002 and 1993.
There was a very fancy card in that year.
They're like, oh, we were going to do an unboxing and unpacking.
They were 20 bucks a pack.
That's crazy, but we can make a video out of it and who knows what we'll get.
As we go to the cash, we look at them.
They had all been opened and attempted badly, I should say, to be resealed.
Can you imagine some little basket?
This was not the antique store's fault because I don't think anybody had asked to see those things in years.
And you could only really tell when you started unfolding where they seal it.
Someone tried to resell after having opened and probably taken out whatever valuable cards were in there to some pigeon.
And I say, I am no pigeon, sir.
It was, anyways, we saved that and then we got some other stuff.
All right.
What else do we have on to talk about, Pete, before we go over to the vivabarnslaw.locals.com after party?
Do we go back to Canada for some madness?
I think we have to.
There is a story coming out of Canada of a BC nurse.
I mean, some of these things, my buddy up in Canada sends me this stuff.
I'm like, this can't be real.
It's just real life.
Oh, it's real life, people.
Western Standard does great work reporting that a BC nurse has been suspended, fined, $94,000 for a IHeart JK Rowling billboard.
Let's just go see about this.
By the way, the price of, what's the word?
Political correctness, the price of dissent has gone up in Canada.
You want to go into the forest in protest?
$25,000.
You want to fly a drone where you're not allowed to?
$25,000.
You.
You go to Newfoundland.
You want to go in the forest?
That's $100,000 with six months in jail potentially.
You want to make a billboard that says, I love J.K. Rowling, who wrote the freaking Harry Potter series?
Let's see what's going on here, period.
People, a disciplinary panel has suspended a British Columbian nurse for one month and ordered her to pay over $93,000 in costs related to her public statements about women's rights and single-sex spaces.
British Columbia College of Nurses and midwives announced the penalties against Amy Ham this week.
The college stated she must pay $93,639 for legal costs, and her one-month suspension starts whenever she returns to nursing.
Ham worked in healthcare for more than 13 years.
She had promoted to a nurse educator role.
The case comes partly from a 2022-2020 Vancouver billboard.
Ham co-spart a billboard was shouted, I Heart J.K. Rowley.
This referenced her views supporting women's rights.
Oh, maybe it could have been a Harry Potter thing.
Rowling has argued for female-only spaces like washrooms, crisis centers, sporting events, and prisons after activists and a Vancouver City Councilor complained the billboard was taken down.
Can you imagine this?
This is Canada, California, New York State, where they can come into your house and steal your property, your pets, and kill them.
That's New York.
They can make you do certain things with your kids.
They can make your kids have certain rights that defy parental rights.
And they can try to make you believe absurdities and criminalize logical, reasonable thinking.
Two formal complaints were filed.
They accused Ham of transphobia and hate speech, the College Lawson investigation.
It produced a 332-page report examining Ham's public statements between 2018 and 2021.
It included her tweets, articles, and podcast appearances.
Holy crap.
This is what they use licensure for?
Terrorizing you.
They use it to criminalize your speech and to get ideological conformity of people in professional roles, nursing roles, medical positions.
And this is how they cleanse dissident thought from entire fields of practice through licensure.
You have a license, you say things people don't like, they file complaints against you.
They did it to me for tweets about Justin Trudeau.
Random anonymous ethics complaints to the Bar Society of Quebec because one person didn't like the fact that I basically said to them, basically, I said, Justin Trudeau killed over 10,000 people via medical assistance and dying.
I have to have a discussion with the Bar Society that they say, well, he didn't technically kill them.
It's like, all right, I'm sorry.
You want me to clarify?
Oh, that's right.
He didn't kill them because if he killed each and every one of them and it took an hour, it would take more than a year.
The college's inquiry committee argued Ham made discriminatory and derogatory comments about transgender people while identifying herself as a nurse.
Hmm.
Seems that a nurse should be able to tell the difference between a man and a woman under very obvious reasons.
Hearings lasted for 22 days, spread over a year and a half.
In the end, the disciplinary panel ruled that four of Ham's statements amounted to unprofessional conduct.
Ham has already appealed the findings to the BC Supreme Court.
Her lawyer, Lisa Bilby, said, In our view, the panel made a number of legal and factual errors to make the decision unsound.
Building data, they are considering appealing the penalty too.
The decision effectively penalizes a nurse for expressing mainstream views aligned with science and common sense.
Yep, pretty much that's Canada.
The panel's ruling imposes a chilling effect on free speech for all regulated professionals.
Yep, that's Canada.
Ham said the college has chosen to punish me for statements that are not hateful, but truthful.
I'm appealing because biological reality matters, and so does freedom of expression.
Ham thanked thousands of Canadians for donating to the Justice Center for Constitutional Freedoms.
I just had on John Carpe, the president of the JCCF.
It was either earlier this week or last week.
I forget what week we're in.
That's what's going on in Canada.
It's abject insanity.
Abject insanity, people.
And it is a question of ensuring: how do you make sure that judges are all ideologically aligned?
Well, you make sure that by and large, the field of law is itself ideologically aligned.
How do you do that?
Well, you allow anonymous ethics complaints against the ideological dissidents, such as myself.
You force lawyers to sign DEI mission statements in terms of their dealings with the public and hiring.
And they tried this in Ontario.
It didn't actually happen.
They had to walk it back.
But then you get the free thinkers, the dissident thought, to take themselves out of the market, take themselves out of the country.
And this is how you end up with a country that looks like Canada, where you have seemingly reasonable-looking people proud to say that nonviolent mischief convictions should result in seven to eight years in jail and calling nonviolent mischief convictions terrorists because you disagree with the ideological positions behind the mischief.
This is how you do it.
This is how you capture a country.
And it becomes something of an exponential effect.
The worse it gets, the faster, say, the big mouths pick up and leave.
The faster those with the means and the opportunities pick up and leave.
And then you're left with the political activists, nobody to really pay into the public system anymore.
You have a brain drain, you have a financial drain, and that's how a country goes from being Venezuela 20 years ago to Venezuela today.
And that's that.
Okay, now I've been going on for too long because I think we've got to go raid somebody and do a bit of an after party.
We'll do a quick after party on locals.
Let me see who is live right now that we will raid.
Who do we want to see here?
Looking, I don't think people are into gaming all that much.
Do people want to do gaming?
Yeah, we'll do it.
Okay, look, if you're not into gaming, you may or may not be interested.
I don't think, oh, it's a good way.
This is a good way to actually compare real life firearms to the fake stuff in video games.
We'll go raid Dr. Disrespect and see.
Let me see who's going on.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Let me just double check here and make sure.
It's Friday afternoon.
You know what?
We'll do a no, right side broadcasting is no longer live.
NerdRotic is live.
Let's do NerdRotic.
That'll be more ideologically aligned.
At least they're going to talk about some mainstream stuff, but it'll be more fun for those who are not really into gaming.
Let us go and raid Nerotic.
And if you want to come over to vivabarnslaw.locals.com for a short after party, because my kid has been very patient.
We need to exercise.
Let's do that.
Go confirm the raid.
If you want to send stuff, people, I want to do Friday night unboxings like Casey Neistat-ish.
P.O. boxes.
This is the address.
And that is it.
Bada bing, bada boom.
Let's see what's going on in our locals community.
Real quick lack before we go over with the after party.
And I'm going to be back at home.
If it's not Monday for the stream, it'll be definitely for Tuesday.
We might have a long day of driving on Monday, depending on what happens.
We got Patty F. Weber.
Oh, geez, Louise, I should have done that.
Thank you.
Let me give the events.gives website out here.
Hold on, let me show everybody what's going on with this.
If you want to support 1776 Law Center, what Barnes does, we've got a silent auction.
There's a bunch of good stuff in there, actually.
Ooh, Remy Martin.
Courvois Day.
Current bid is 500.
What is this?
Middleton, a bid is a thousand bucks.
Booyah.
Where is the lectern?
Okay, we got to do it.
These are rookie numbers.
We got to bump that up.
This is what's going on now.
We're having a silent auction so that Barnes can continue doing the work that they do at 1776.
Check it out.
That's the link.
And right now, we're going to end.
Come on over to vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
We're going to have the live show on Sunday.
I think it might be on location.
I don't know what we're going to do for the Sunday show, but we're going to do it.
Stay tuned.
And let's just go.
Let's go to some of the chat over in Vivabarneslaw.locals.com so everybody can get a feel for what goes on in our above-average community.
Viva, have a great weekend.
Wish I was there to meet the lineup.
That is Little Rooster.
Richard Barris is coming.
Election Wizard is coming and giving talks, like a full panel.
What is this?
Okay, that's a joke because we have good memes over at VivaBarnesLaw.locals.com.
Rocket Boy, T.Y. says, Washington also passed the legislation that prohibits school officials and medical staff from contact with parents, but allows the district emergency powers to rehome students to foster care or medical facilities.
Viva, conservative ladies of America, the woman that moved her family to Florida is covering it.
I will definitely get on that.
It's wild.
It's what happens.
All right, we're going to end it on Rumble.
Everyone, thank you for being here.
And we'll have a quick afterparty on vivabarnslaw.locals.com.
Subscribe before you head out.
