Viva & Barnes - E Jean Carrol Money on Hold? Virginia Meltdown? Russian Interference in Alberta Separatist Movement? Aired: 2026-05-08 Duration: 01:10:31 === Jeff Lewis Meal Deal (02:47) === [00:00:00] Ladies and gentlemen of the interwebs, in the future when the space capsules are flying through the cosmos and one video is labeled, This is what life on the interwebs was like on Earth, they will watch this video and the aliens that have now been confirmed to exist, hashtag joking, will laugh. [00:00:17] Behold the genius. [00:00:26] Hey, what do you know of there? [00:00:28] It's a Jeff Lewis meal deal. [00:00:30] Oh, yeah? [00:00:32] What's a Jeff Lewis meal deal? [00:00:34] It's six McNuggets in your hand, a container of barbecue sauce, and a small cup of tap water. [00:00:43] And how is it? [00:00:44] It's delicious. [00:00:46] What is that? [00:00:47] It's a Jeff Lewis meal. [00:00:48] What's in it? [00:00:49] Six nuggets in your hand, a container of barbecue sauce, and a small cup of tap water. [00:00:56] So is that water from a mountain stream? [00:00:57] It's just tap water. [00:00:59] So it's seven nuggets? [00:01:01] No, it's six. [00:01:02] Not seven. [00:01:03] What do they put in your hand? [00:01:04] And they just give it to you. [00:01:05] What's it called again? [00:01:07] It's the Jeff Lewis meal. [00:01:08] And how is it? [00:01:09] It's delicious. [00:01:10] And where do you get it? [00:01:11] You just go to any McDonald's and you say, hey, I'd like the Jeff Lewis meal. [00:01:15] And when you order it, they just give it to you? [00:01:18] Yes, they just give it to you. [00:01:20] It's seven nuggets? [00:01:21] No. [00:01:23] I said it was six, not seven. [00:01:25] I think you said it was five nuggets. [00:01:27] No, it's six. [00:01:28] And you say the water is heated? [00:01:30] No, the water is not heated. [00:01:32] And a giant glass of ice cold water. [00:01:34] No, it's not ice. [00:01:35] It's tap water. [00:01:37] Now, remember the premise of this is this is what every discussion on X is pretty much like. [00:01:43] This is what every attempt at a rational conversation on X and the interwebs and sometimes in person is actually like. [00:01:49] It starts off just with misunderstandings. [00:01:51] And where it goes is comedic gold. [00:01:54] Small cup, sweet and sour sauce, and a bit of barbecue sauce. [00:01:57] And who's it named after? [00:01:58] Jeff Lewis. [00:01:59] Never heard of him. [00:02:00] Never heard of this fucking guy. [00:02:02] Well, I'm sorry. [00:02:03] Sounds like a dick name. [00:02:04] All right, man, relax. [00:02:06] So it's a five piece McNugget in a box. [00:02:08] No, it's. [00:02:09] It's in sweet and sour sauce and a cup. [00:02:11] No. [00:02:11] I think you said it was seven nuggets. [00:02:12] It's six in your hand. [00:02:15] In your hand? [00:02:16] That's fucking bullshit. [00:02:17] Why can't they put it in a fucking box? [00:02:19] Probably not cost effective. [00:02:20] So it's barbecue water? [00:02:22] No, it's barbecue sauce. [00:02:24] Fuck that deal. [00:02:25] You put six nuggets in my hand, I'll knock your dick in the dirt. [00:02:30] You should call it a shit meal. [00:02:31] Can I just eat my meal, please? [00:02:32] Enjoy your Jerry Lewis meal. [00:02:34] Thank you. [00:02:36] That's an ice cold water. [00:02:37] That's nice. [00:02:38] It's tap water. [00:02:39] But a coke. [00:02:40] So it's a lot of ice in there? [00:02:42] Sounds like bullshit. [00:02:42] Who would want to get that? [00:02:44] Why can't they put it in a box? [00:02:45] Have you ever heard of a box before? [00:02:46] I don't know why they do it. === Six Nuggets in Hand (02:27) === [00:02:48] That's the way they do it. [00:02:48] They don't have a box. [00:02:49] I'm sorry. [00:02:50] They should call it a shit meal. [00:02:52] Jesus. [00:02:53] Why don't you just get a fucking happy meal? [00:02:55] What? [00:02:56] Then get your. [00:02:57] It's not a happy meal. [00:02:58] Why don't you eat shit and die? [00:02:59] Fuck it. [00:03:00] Jesus. [00:03:01] Wow. [00:03:02] This guy's an asshole. [00:03:03] Fuck you. [00:03:04] Why don't you go to hell? [00:03:05] I'll knock you out. [00:03:06] No, you won't. [00:03:08] Yeah, I will. [00:03:09] That's the internet in a nutshell for you people. [00:03:11] I don't know, this came across my feed. [00:03:12] And when the random videos of the interwebs come across your feed and you watch it from beginning to end, you got to go share it. [00:03:20] But it's pretty classic. [00:03:21] You know, the old trope or the old expression you can't have a meaningful conversation with someone who is intent on misunderstanding everything. [00:03:29] I made that politically neutral so as not to target Democrats or lefties in general or progressives in general. [00:03:36] But you try to have a meaningful conversation with people, there will be people who are. [00:03:40] Naturally dense, naturally obtuse, that will misunderstand by accident. [00:03:45] And then you will have those that will misunderstand on purpose to take any interaction on the interwebs and turn it into degeneracy, insults, attacks, and that type of stuff. [00:03:56] Now, that's not to say I'm not guilty of it myself sometimes, but when I do it, it's always for a good reason, like when I call certain politicians dumbasses, not for failure to understand what they're getting at, to highlight that what they're getting at is abject stupidity. [00:04:11] And we're going to get to some examples of that today. [00:04:15] Now, before we even get started, Viva Fry. [00:04:17] Former Montreal litigator turned current Florida Rumbler in the three o'clock time slot on the Rumble lineup. [00:04:23] How goes the battle, everybody? [00:04:25] We are live on. [00:04:28] We've got Polish Dog in our Rumble chat. [00:04:32] What's up? [00:04:32] Hey, bigots, says he. [00:04:34] Good afternoon, Polish Dog. [00:04:35] We're live on Rumble. [00:04:37] We are live on Viva Barnes Law.locals.com with the best above average community out there. [00:04:43] And we're also live on X just because, but nobody really cares about X. [00:04:46] We care about Rumble and we care about. [00:04:48] Viva Barnes Law. [00:04:49] Locals.com. [00:04:51] Today we're talking about three things, maybe, you know, four. [00:04:54] My brother, who's actually my brother from the same mother, although he looks like the mailman, as we say. [00:04:59] Although people online tell me that we actually look very similar and have similar demeanors. [00:05:03] One thing I can tell you is I'm far more tanned than he is, and my hair is far longer, and I have far less gray, but I'm on my way there. [00:05:10] My brother's coming on at about 1 30, give or take, to talk about some Canadian stuff. === Presidential Immunity Claims (15:12) === [00:05:15] Hilarious stuff, which we're going to get into. [00:05:17] Accusations by the CBC, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, also known as the Communist Broadcasting Corporation, state funded media accusing Russians and Americans or Russia and America of interfering with Canadian politics, that being the Alberta separatist movement, to sow discord and exacerbate a political divide in Canada. [00:05:43] The irony of the Canadian version of Pravda accusing Russia and America of interfering covertly and overtly in Canadian politics is hilarious. [00:05:52] We'll get there. [00:05:53] And we're also going to talk about the madness that's going on in Virginia with the Courts upholding the reversal of the referendum that sought to gerrymander redistrict, and they had a referendum on it and it was declared invalid. [00:06:05] People are flipping out about that. [00:06:07] And another one that sort of went under the radar news about E. Jean Carroll and her $83.3 million judgment, which is now, by consent of the parties, going to be put on hold as Trump appeals to the Supreme Court the $83.3 million ruling, which was the result of judicial lawfare and grotesque procedural legal malfeasance. [00:06:28] And we're going to start with E. Jean Carroll. [00:06:30] Before we get going here, let me just make sure that we're good across all platforms, and we are. [00:06:35] You remember E. Gene Carroll. [00:06:37] By the way, one thing I have to get good at is clear cut segments so that people know what I'm talking about when I'm talking about it. [00:06:46] And what's the other word I was looking for? [00:06:50] Refreshing everybody's memories on the current state of affairs. [00:06:56] You might remember people such as E. Gene Carroll. [00:06:58] You might remember the E. Gene Carroll nutbag. [00:07:01] Who accused Donald Trump of doing things to her in the changing room of a Bergdorf clothing store back in the 80s or 90s? [00:07:10] She doesn't really know. [00:07:12] Invoking a dress that she was wearing at the time, apparently that didn't exist at the time. [00:07:16] A woman who was on Facebook, seemingly enamored by Donald Trump, posting things about Donald Trump, posting things about, by the way, her love for law and order. [00:07:27] And they had an episode of Law and Order in which there was an episode specifically. [00:07:33] Mirroring, paralleling the allegations E. Jean Carroll made against one Donald John Trump. [00:07:38] She accuses him of sexual improprieties. [00:07:42] And then, when Trump asserts that she's a batshit crazy old lady, she sues him for defamation for his asserting of his innocence to her, in my view, frivolous, baseless allegations. [00:07:55] And I don't give one sweet bugger all that a corrupt court in New York found Trump liable for some form of improper sexual behavior. [00:08:06] I don't care. [00:08:07] It's the most biggest steaming pile of judicial crap you've ever heard. [00:08:11] Lawfare on steroids. [00:08:12] The only reason she was able to sue. [00:08:14] To refresh everybody's memory, is that she, through her lawyer, spearheaded an amendment to a law that created a window of opportunity, an extension of the statute of limitations to sue for alleged sexual improper behavior that would have otherwise been time barred. [00:08:29] She petitioned for this amendment to the law, which the window has now closed, so nobody can benefit from this law ever again. [00:08:35] And the second it became available, she filed suit under this law that her own lawyer admitted she was pivotal in having passed. [00:08:44] Now, E. Jean Carroll. [00:08:45] Is a nutcase a certifiable bona fide nutcase? [00:08:49] And if anybody has any lingering doubts, I'll just refresh your memory as to what she said on Anderson Cooper about rape and in her mind it being sexy. [00:08:59] It was so egregiously shocking that Anderson Cooper laughs uncomfortably and then has to cut to break to deal with this. [00:09:07] Listen to this victim, you don't feel like a victim. [00:09:11] I was not thrown on the ground and ravished, which the word rape carries so many sexual. [00:09:16] Connotation. [00:09:18] This was not sexual. [00:09:21] It hurt. [00:09:22] It just, you know. [00:09:24] I think most people think of rape as a violent assault. [00:09:28] It is not. [00:09:29] I think most people think of rape as being sexy. [00:09:33] Let's take a short break. [00:09:34] Think of the fantasies. [00:09:36] We've got to take a quick break. [00:09:38] If you can stick around, we'll talk more on the other side. [00:09:40] You're fascinating to talk to. [00:09:43] I mean, this is, it's the most glorious. [00:09:47] A symbol of insanity you've ever seen in your life. [00:09:50] Eugene Carroll filed two separate claims against Trump. [00:09:53] One was for defamation for his asserting that she's crazy, never knew anything about her. [00:09:59] And she won on that. [00:10:01] And then she filed a separate one for the actual damages from the alleged finger penetration. [00:10:07] It feels so dirty saying those words because it is dirty just all around. [00:10:12] So she filed two separate claims and she got $83.3 million on the defamation. [00:10:18] And she got, it was a few million on the alleged digital penetration, as they said. [00:10:24] It was Judge Kaplan who deemed that finding to be tantamount to rape. [00:10:30] He adjudicated a rapist, according to Judge Kaplan, who bastardized whatever statute he was found liable under to mean rape. [00:10:39] And people ran with the headlines, though Trump is an adjudicated rapist. [00:10:42] Now, it was all lawfare from the get go. [00:10:45] Corrupt judges who deserve to be impeached, but never will be. [00:10:48] E. Jean Carroll had two separate rulings in her favor. [00:10:53] The $83.3 million judgment, they're appealing to the Supreme Court. [00:10:58] And in the interim, they have done something interesting, which is asked for a stay of the ruling, a pause on the ruling, the order, the payment. [00:11:08] And E. Jean Carroll has allegedly, at least by the filings, so it's kind of, you know, if they're alleging consent of the parties, then you presume they wouldn't be making up something that there is, in fact, no consent of the parties. [00:11:20] They've consented. [00:11:21] The question is going to be why. [00:11:22] The filing itself will briefly gloss over. [00:11:25] It's more or less interesting. [00:11:26] It's just raising immunity, Westfall Act immunity, presidential immunity. [00:11:30] It's saying that there were some considerations that were not factored in in the process, and that the Supreme Court ruled that Trump has the three types of either objective presidential immunity, presumptive presidential immunity, or no presidential immunity. [00:11:46] And when he asserted his innocence to these allegations, it was at least one of the two types of presidential immunities that he benefits from, and therefore he couldn't be found liable for asserting his innocence and calling this woman what a great many people understand that she is batshit crazy. [00:12:04] Trump asks appeal court to pause ruling in the Eugene Cowell case pending Supreme Court decision. [00:12:08] Federal appeals court last week rejected the president's request for another hearing challenging the $83 million defamation award. [00:12:16] And here's Eugene Cowell. [00:12:17] She won $83 million. [00:12:21] Eugene Cowell won the $83 million settlement after a federal jury decided Donald Trump defamed her when he repeatedly denied that he sexually abused her in 1996. [00:12:31] Can we appreciate that we're living through Kafka, Orwell, Kurt Vonnegut, I mean, we are living through an Orwellian hellhole dystopia of a present when someone is found liable for repeatedly denying that he sexually abused someone when she alleges it and he asserts his innocence. [00:12:52] It's almost as insane as when Alex Jones was not allowed asserting his innocence in his bullcrap show trial, which was actually not on the merits of any defamation or intentional infliction of emotional distress, but only on the merits, on the quantum, sorry, of the award. [00:13:08] He couldn't assert his innocence. [00:13:09] He couldn't assert that he apologized. [00:13:11] He couldn't assert that he retracted. [00:13:14] And then they ordered him to pay $1.5 billion. [00:13:17] Now, not to get into the strategic error of Trump to hold that $1.5 billion judgment against Alex Jones while himself being victim to an absurd, patently absurd process, patently absurd award. [00:13:31] Set that aside. [00:13:33] Let's just read this. [00:13:34] Trump asked a federal appeals court Tuesday to pause its ruling rejecting. [00:13:39] His challenge to Eugene Cowell's $83 million defamation case as he looks to take the case to the Supreme Court. [00:13:46] Trump asked the Second Circuit of Appeals of New York to halt its ruling so he can present questions relating to presidential immunity and the Westfall Act to the High Court. [00:13:55] Carol, a writer, she's a writer. [00:13:58] She's a writer of fiction, fan fiction at that, won the damages after a federal jury decided that Trump defamed her when he repeatedly denied her accusation that he sexually abused her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in 1996. [00:14:13] Can you? [00:14:14] Like, read that. [00:14:15] See, I would say, like, when something is too batshit crazy to fully appreciate, read it three times. [00:14:20] She won the damages after a federal jury decided that Trump defamed her when he repeatedly denied her accusation that he sexually abused her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in 1996. [00:14:30] How the hell can this ever be allowed to stand? [00:14:33] I don't care what anybody feels about anybody. [00:14:36] I don't care who you think that is. [00:14:38] Can you understand that he was found liable? [00:14:41] 83, it was like 60 some odd million dollars in punitive damages because he denied her accusation? [00:14:46] So, you admit your guilt, and if you deny your guilt, defamation. [00:14:50] It kind of sounds like exactly what they did to Alex Jones. [00:14:52] Federal Court of Appeals issued a ruling last week rebuffing Trump's request for a hearing by the full bench of judges or an en banc hearing, en bancs on the bench, to challenge the $83 million Carroll won in 2024. [00:15:04] The ruling opened the way for Trump to petition the Supreme Court. [00:15:06] Trump sought to invoke the Westfall Act to switch out his name as defendant and replace it with the United States. [00:15:12] In a split vote, the majority denied the request to hear that challenge. [00:15:15] The Westfall Act, as we all know, anyone who's been around the channel for long enough, Protect government employees from common lawsuits such as defamation while they are engaged in their official duties. [00:15:25] Changing the defendant from Trump to the federal government would nullify Carol's defamation case, as the U.S. government cannot be sued for defamation. [00:15:32] Tuesday's ruling, Trump's legal team, in Tuesday's filing, Trump's legal team wrote, There is also a fair, in fact, strong prospect that the Supreme Court will reverse the panel's Westfall Act decision. [00:15:43] The filing added that there is a likelihood of irreparable harm against Trump if the court does not temporarily block Carol from collecting her $83 million award. [00:15:51] There's also a bit of an exposure to Eugene Carol if she does collect that $83 million award. [00:15:56] And then the Supreme Court does, in fact, reverse this, which is presumably why she consented to the state. [00:16:01] Carol's legal team responded to the request with the court filing, writing that she does not oppose the motion as long as Trump raises the bond by $7.46 million to account for the post judgment interest that would accrue during Supreme Court proceedings. [00:16:15] In a statement to NBC, a spokesperson for Trump's legal team said they would pursue their appeal. [00:16:19] The American people stand with President Trump in demanding an immediate end to the unlawful, radical weaponization of our justice system and a swift dismissal. [00:16:27] Of all the witch hunts, including the illegal Democrat funded travesty of the Carroll hoaxes, the defense of which the Attorney General has determined is legally required to be taken over by the Department of Justice because Carroll based her false claims on the president's official acts, spokesman said. [00:16:43] Carroll's legal team told NBC News it would not be common further when contacted. [00:16:47] Yeah, okay, we can skip the rest of this. [00:16:49] The filing signed by the Assistant General Brett Schumate said it finds, quote, good cause in Trump's request to pause the Second Circuit's ruling and the federal government will ask the Supreme Court to overturn the lower court's ruling and allow Trump's name. [00:17:02] To be removed as a defendant. [00:17:03] A three judge panel of the Second Circuit first rejected an appeal from Trump that was based on presidential immunity in September, of course. [00:17:11] Trump also asked the High Court to consider his appeal against a separate $5 million lawsuit from Carroll. [00:17:16] Trump filed that appeal in November after a federal appeals court rejected his challenges to the lawsuit in June. [00:17:21] That was the other case. [00:17:22] That $5 million lawsuit focused on comments he made about Carroll after his first term ended, as well as the alleged assault itself. [00:17:27] The $83 million lawsuit instead was centered on the disputes Trump made about Carroll's accusations while he was president. [00:17:34] Trump first began public office, and whatever, we're about that there. [00:17:37] So that's the article. [00:17:38] And we're going to go just quickly over the lawsuit itself, just so you can see the gist of the argument, which we don't really need to get into because it's pretty straightforward. [00:17:49] You know, they flesh it out the stay and the appeals. [00:17:54] This is from the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, E. Jean Carroll Plaintiff, President Donald Trump. [00:18:02] In a dissent from the denial of rehearing Ong Bong, three judges of this court identified in the panel's opinion. [00:18:08] Opinions, legal errors, important questions of federal law, as well as conflicts with the precedence of the Supreme Court and other circuit courts. [00:18:16] First, there's a reasonable probability that the Supreme Court will grant certiorari to address, among other potential questions presented, presidential immunity and the Westfall Act, which governs federal employees while they're acting as federal employees. [00:18:27] The Supreme Court has granted certiorari each time that a president has sought review of a lower court decision rejecting an assertion of presidential immunity. [00:18:34] Fine. [00:18:35] Second, there is a fair prospect of reversal. [00:18:38] And now that I realize this, I'm not showing the document right here. [00:18:42] Now I got to find it. [00:18:44] Oh, where is it here? [00:18:44] It's right here. [00:18:45] The first one was this Reasonable probability the Supreme Court will grant certiorari as they've done in the past. [00:18:51] Second, prospect of reversal. [00:18:53] Panel's sole rationale for its immunity waiver determination law of the case will not apply to the Supreme Court and improperly ignored Trump versus the United States. [00:19:01] That was the decision that talked about absolute presidential immunity, not subjective, but rather presumptive presidential immunity and no presidential immunity for purely private acts. [00:19:12] And then the question is going to be when. [00:19:13] And as president, he asserts his innocence from these, what I feel to be baseless, defamatory allegations themselves, whether or not he's doing it as president, as a federal employee who's protected by the Westfall Act. [00:19:25] And then, third, what were we saying? [00:19:27] There's a fair, in fact, strong prospect that the Supreme Court will reverse the panel's Westfall Act decision. [00:19:31] As the dissent recognized, there was no principal justification for holding that Attorney General Barr's certification decision could be revisited by Attorney General Garland. [00:19:39] But Attorney General Garland's certification decision could not be revisited by Attorney General Garland. [00:19:44] Bondi. [00:19:45] Third, likelihood of irreparable harm absent the stay. [00:19:47] President Trump may immediately be required to bear the burdens of proceedings to execute on a judgment of $83.3 million. [00:19:54] Allowing these proceedings before the Supreme Court has reviewed the significant legal questions presented here would, quote, eviscerate the immunity the Supreme Court has recognized. [00:20:04] Fourth, the equity strongly, when you're going for this type of thing, you've got a balance of inconvenience, as we used to call it up in Canada. [00:20:09] Fourth, the equity strongly favor a stay of the mandate. [00:20:13] President Trump will suffer irreparable harm if the stay is not granted by being deprived of immunity from proceedings. [00:20:18] To enforce the judgment. [00:20:19] And then we can go on there. [00:20:20] Now, some people would ask why on earth Eugene Carroll would agree to stay the proceedings. === Repaying the Judgment (03:13) === [00:20:27] Other people have pointed out, and they pointed out in the article as well, you know, she's promised to donate the monies in any event. [00:20:32] So there's no prejudice to her to not collect all the monies that she's going to donate anyhow. [00:20:36] But there is, in fact, substantial risk. [00:20:38] I had to double check this because if she gets the monies and she takes her $83 million and she's ultimately, I don't know, in a year or two, ordered to repay it because it's reversed on the Supreme Court ruling. [00:20:51] Well, she'd have to repay the 83 million plus the interest, whatever legal interest rate it would accrue at, on the basis that, you know, when you put the money in court and you put it in there in an interest bearing account and it sits there pending adjudication, the interest accrues and whoever gets that money returned to them or given to them will have the interest that accrued while it's in the trust interest bearing account. [00:21:13] If E. Jean Carroll takes that 83 million bucks, A, if she gives it away, she's got to give it back if they overturn it. [00:21:18] But even if she just sat on it, she would, if ever, order to repay it. [00:21:23] Have to repay the 83 million, which you know, sitting in the account, plus whatever the interest rate at the legal rate would be. [00:21:29] And so, the interest on 83 million bucks, as we remember, was it Leticia James was rubbing in Trump's face? [00:21:36] Here's the daily interest on your 500 million dollar judgment that we also law fared out of you through a corrupt judicial process. [00:21:44] Well, the daily interest rate is quite a bit 83 million bucks. [00:21:47] I don't know if you just say four and a half percent per year, it's a lot. [00:21:50] So, there is zero incentive for E. Jean Carroll given her stated objectives to donate the money to collect it, and in fact. [00:21:56] Substantial risk if this is ever overturned, as it should be, if there's ever going to be any meaningful law and order and rule of law in the court system, she would have to repay that money plus whatever the interest accrued throughout the process, which could be substantial. [00:22:12] And so that is what's going on with Eugene Carroll. [00:22:14] In my view, she is a crazy person. [00:22:18] She's a crazy person. [00:22:19] And as the Democrats, leftists, and progressives tend to do, they tend to exploit crazy people, mentally ill, vulnerable people. [00:22:29] For their political purposes, as they abused and exploited E. Jean Carroll for theirs. [00:22:34] They got their useful idiot to file this lawsuit as a result of legislative changes that she herself, through counsel, spearheaded. [00:22:42] They got her to file the suit, and then they had their opportunity, they had their vehicle to railroad Trump through a corrupt lawfare judicial proceeding in total nonconformity with what had become established Supreme Court law on immunity itself. [00:23:01] And despite any procedural fair play in the court system, it was a joke at the time. [00:23:07] We've covered it at length throughout the time. [00:23:08] Now, Trump is appealing to the Supreme Court, asks for a stay of execution of judgment, to which E. Jean Carroll, showing a little bit of good sense, concedes, and we'll see where it goes. [00:23:19] If it does not get reversed by the Supreme Court, we will have a serious injustice on our hands. [00:23:25] And the fact that Trump has to go to the Supreme Court to reverse this judicial injustice should be a pause and cause for reflection to not ratify, condone, or rub in other people's faces the consequences of similar judicial abuse. === Staying Execution Appeal (04:16) === [00:23:41] To other people who are also politically disfavored. [00:23:44] And that's that. [00:23:46] How goes the battle, everybody? [00:23:47] Let me see what's going on here in the chat because I haven't been paying attention to it because I've been so enthralled with this case. [00:23:52] Can you believe? [00:23:53] I mean, I still, every time I read the paragraphs where they say he was found liable for defamation for denying her accusations of touching her in a, I mean, it's insanity. [00:24:03] It's abject insanity. [00:24:07] And may it be reversed one day. [00:24:08] Now let's go see what's going on here over in the crumble. [00:24:14] Section here. [00:24:14] Hold on a second. [00:24:15] I got to do this. [00:24:16] We got dominant one who's in the house. [00:24:17] Oh, yeah. [00:24:18] Hold on a second. [00:24:19] Let me wash my hands, dry my hands off because we're going to do something. [00:24:24] You all remember Bill Tong? [00:24:26] Let me just make sure I'm not showing anyone's private address here. [00:24:28] This is a business address. [00:24:30] Focus. [00:24:31] Focus. [00:24:32] Let me get my face out of here. [00:24:33] Bill Tong is a fan. [00:24:35] Well, he's a fan. [00:24:36] He's a member of our community. [00:24:37] He's a consistent watcher of the channel. [00:24:39] And he comes in with the rumble rants. [00:24:42] And I said to him as a joke, Send a pack of cars or something, and we're going to have a Biltong break. [00:24:47] And before my brother gets in here, because my brother's going to be here in a few minutes, Dominant One says, everyone, put Anton's firm and juicy meat into your mouths from King of Biltong at Biltong USA, making people have better taste. [00:25:01] Biltong is a South African delicacy. [00:25:05] And look, we'll do it real quick. [00:25:07] Like anybody who likes baseball cards is going to like this. [00:25:09] Biltong actually sent me one pack of tops, 1988. [00:25:15] And one pack of tops series two 2020. [00:25:20] Now, I did have to look up who the. [00:25:24] I don't want to damage these things. [00:25:25] Do I have a knife on me? [00:25:27] I should probably get my knife. [00:25:29] Hold on. [00:25:29] You know what I'm going to use? [00:25:30] I'm going to use a bell, the bullet bell, which comes from another member of our community who I will be seeing and hanging out with next week, Ginger Ninja. [00:25:41] And we're going to see. [00:25:41] So I think the. [00:25:42] Hold on. [00:25:42] Let me just see who the actual valuable cards were in this one. [00:25:46] It was rookies such as oh, I forget whom. [00:25:49] Okay, let's just do this. [00:25:51] Don't want to break it, don't break the card. [00:25:53] Come on, uh, this is going to be uh, oh, oh, there's gum in here too. [00:25:59] And uh, not sure that the gum is, oh, look at this. [00:26:03] Okay, here we go, like this. [00:26:04] Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, okay. [00:26:07] Oh, where's the gum? [00:26:09] So, the card that gets the gum, as you can see here, always gets destroyed. [00:26:14] And that was you want to hope that's not the right Jerry Reed. [00:26:17] Let's see if anybody knows who these guys are. [00:26:18] Then we got. [00:26:20] Ken Howell. [00:26:21] Okay. [00:26:22] Then we got. [00:26:23] I don't even know who these guys are. [00:26:24] Charles LeBrant. [00:26:28] Floyd. [00:26:29] It'd be great if we could see one good one here. [00:26:31] Floyd. [00:26:32] Okay. [00:26:32] Then we got. [00:26:32] Ooh, Expos. [00:26:33] This is our Montreal Expos when we used to have a team. [00:26:37] Beautiful stuff. [00:26:38] We'll put that one on the side. [00:26:38] That one might be nice. [00:26:39] And we're just going to go here. [00:26:40] Mike Moore. [00:26:42] And we're going to do the break, the built on break. [00:26:45] And then you get some thing here. [00:26:46] Okay. [00:26:46] Then we got these. [00:26:47] I don't know what these are here. [00:26:48] So that was. [00:26:50] Mike Lacrosse, Henry Cotto, Mike Fielder, Tim Mullet, Alan Somebody, Herm Wingham, Paul O'Neill, and Rob Murphy. [00:26:59] And if my brother's watching, he can sneak his butt in here, and then we're going to talk about that in a second. [00:27:03] We do not, Bill Brown says, do not try the gum. [00:27:06] I did watch online, look online to see if you can actually die from eating it. [00:27:10] And then we did get another one with my kid who did eat it. [00:27:13] And it just basically dissolved into. [00:27:17] Okay, so now we go like this here. [00:27:19] I don't know which cards these are. [00:27:20] We're going to see afterwards. [00:27:21] Okay, that was a. [00:27:22] Apparently, it's the Gold Refractor Low Number Variants or Variations. [00:27:29] Houston. [00:27:30] Oh, there's something in here. [00:27:31] What's this one? [00:27:32] Are these upside down? [00:27:35] Wait, I see it right here. [00:27:36] It's this one. [00:27:37] Wow. [00:27:39] Ryan Sandberg. [00:27:40] I don't know who that guy is. [00:27:41] I know who that guy is. [00:27:42] And then we got, all right, cool. [00:27:44] Biltong. [00:27:45] BiltongUSA.com. [00:27:47] Use code VIVA for 10% off. [00:27:49] And that has been a Biltong break. [00:27:51] Do not try the gum. [00:27:53] Where did the gum go? === Rare Card Variants (14:37) === [00:27:57] Do we want to get it together? [00:27:58] Turned to mush. [00:27:59] No, it's amazing. [00:28:01] Too bad Ken Griffey. [00:28:02] Too bad no Ken Griffey or Barry Bonds. [00:28:05] Who was the other one? [00:28:06] In the 2020, I read that it was Wander Franco was one of the other good cards, but Wander Franco has since. [00:28:12] Run himself into legal problems and his cards are no longer as valuable as they once were. [00:28:20] Okay, let me see if my brother's going to come in here. [00:28:23] Everybody's familiar with what's going on in Canada in terms of the Alberta separated. [00:28:28] Let's start that again. [00:28:29] And first of all, get this out of here. [00:28:33] Everybody is familiar with what's going on in Canada. [00:28:35] I mean, I know my Canadian watchers are very familiar with it. [00:28:38] The American ones who have been around the channel for a little while should also be familiar with it. [00:28:42] There is a movement. [00:28:44] For Alberta to separate from the federation that is Canada. [00:28:48] And it's called secession. [00:28:50] It's not the first time it's come up in Canadian politics, but the last two times, Quebec, the unique French province, civil law province, it's unique, as everyone says in Canada, compared to the other provinces, because it's the only one that's officially a French language province. [00:29:10] Although New Brunswick, it's not really known, is officially bilingual. [00:29:14] Well, the country's officially bilingual, but New Brunswick has like. [00:29:17] As many French speaking Canadians as Anglos, and Ontario has a substantial French population. [00:29:24] Back in the day, it was 78 and 95 or 96, Quebec was talking about separating from the Federation. [00:29:34] They wanted out, they wanted their own country. [00:29:35] It's a distinct culture, a distinct language, distinct laws, specifically because it's civil law in the otherwise common law system of Canada. [00:29:44] And they tried to separate not once but twice, and they failed not once but twice. [00:29:49] And I say that not in any, you know, it was a very, very close, like 51 49 vote. [00:29:53] The second time, 1995 96, was when I was 15, 16 in grade 11. [00:29:59] There's been a substantial push for Alberta to separate right now. [00:30:07] And the movement has gained substantial traction and has had substantial support among Albertans who are fed up with the liberal tyranny in Canada. [00:30:19] Environmental tyranny in Canada that disproportionately and disparately impacts Alberta in terms of exploiting Alberta for tax dollars that they then spread around to the other provinces in what they call redistribution. [00:30:32] Oh, geez, I forget the name for it. [00:30:35] And last election, when Trump said, you know, we're going to make Canada the 51st state, and then it really caused everybody to rally around the Canadian flag to the point where they elected a globalist whore that is Mark J. Carney, Alberta said, we get stuck with another liberal government. [00:30:54] And we want out of this freaking country. [00:30:56] And so they've gotten hundreds of thousands of signatures on the referendum. [00:31:00] And now, the state funded propagandist outlet that is the CBC needs to find a way to vilify the Alberta separatist movement. [00:31:08] And they found the way. [00:31:08] Now, before we go even further, I'm going to bring in my brother, my brother from another mother, or my brother from the actual mother. [00:31:14] There we go. [00:31:15] And I'm aligned. [00:31:17] All right, what's the latest? [00:31:18] Well, for those who, some people might not have met you because it's been a while. [00:31:23] Tell people who you are. [00:31:24] Dan Fry, also known as Line Advocacy on X. [00:31:26] I do a lot of start off my advocacy based on some of the bizarre stuff I was seeing during COVID. [00:31:32] So, corporate lawyer. [00:31:34] So, that's all I do. [00:31:35] I'm maybe not all, but corporate. [00:31:36] So, involved in some litigation too. [00:31:38] And you're still practicing. [00:31:40] I don't know what we can talk about in terms of some of the interesting stuff that you have. [00:31:43] Oh, there's a lot of good stuff, but I don't like to talk too much about the active ones because it's, you know, you never know if you're going to say something that you shouldn't say. [00:31:52] And what's said cannot be unsaid. [00:31:54] Dan, so the Alberta separatist movement, I mean, I know we're following it pretty closely. [00:31:58] I'm just going to bring up the. [00:31:59] I got to bring up. [00:32:00] Matt, yeah, we got to talk PSYOP because this is crazy what's going on. [00:32:03] It's crazy. [00:32:04] This is coming from the CBC and it's. [00:32:06] A headline that says Russia and US CBC is state funded propaganda to the tune of $1.4 billion a year. [00:32:13] They say Russia and the US amplifying Alberta separatist networks. [00:32:17] Amplify. [00:32:18] Stoke division distrust report. [00:32:21] Hold on. [00:32:22] Here. [00:32:22] This is the headline. [00:32:23] I can't do it. [00:32:24] So get us up to speed. [00:32:27] Like what's going on? [00:32:28] Where it's at? [00:32:29] Well, I don't know. [00:32:30] You got to go with your experts on the whole separation business. [00:32:33] Like I don't know. [00:32:34] On the ground, it's sounding there's an issue in how they got signatures or whatever, but it sounds like it's getting support. [00:32:39] And it sounds like people are scared, rightfully so. [00:32:42] You know, I don't have strong opinions one way or the other. [00:32:45] I definitely see why Albertans want to separate. [00:32:47] They've been getting hoodwinked for quite a while now. [00:32:49] And that's what that report kind of showed, or some of the reports. [00:32:54] But so the signatures are building, and where this is going to go is kind of unprecedented. [00:32:59] So, you know, why not get ahead of it while it's fun? [00:33:01] Well, the litigation that resulted from the last Quebec referendum is the Supreme Court said you have to put a clear question to the people because the last Quebec referendum question was about as Clear as mud. [00:33:14] Did you vote on that one? [00:33:15] I forgot how old you were. [00:33:16] I was 16. [00:33:16] No, we had a day off to go protest, which now that I think about, like, you know, having high school have a day off to go protest, that's sort of politicizing high school. [00:33:25] But I went to see the movie Powder. [00:33:26] I remember this clear as day, that stupid garbage movie about the bald, you know, the bald guy who got struck by lightning. [00:33:32] So I'm watching Powder at the Eaton Center while everybody's protesting outside because, yeah, no, I didn't vote and it didn't pass, but it was like, it was the closest thing ever. [00:33:42] Hey, what are the people, Lion Advocacy? [00:33:44] Lion, L I O N. Are you just lying advocacy? [00:33:49] I've never even thought about that. [00:33:51] And now you might have to change your name. [00:33:52] Anyhow. [00:33:54] So, the CBC comes out with this report then. [00:33:57] It's the objectively, I mean, it's so stupid. [00:34:00] And it's like Goebbels accusing, I don't know who the propaganda minister for Stalin was, but it's like Goebbels accusing Stalin of propaganda. [00:34:11] No, but, oh, sorry, go ahead. [00:34:13] Oh, go for it. [00:34:14] No, RCMP came out with a report on the same day. [00:34:18] Did you see that one? [00:34:19] Where it said there's actually, we're not that concerned about interference. [00:34:21] Like, yeah, right. [00:34:24] Okay, so hold on, flesh it out. [00:34:25] The RCMP is the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. [00:34:27] They come out the same day the CBC puts, I think it was the same day, and says, we don't see any foreign interference or we're not concerned about it. [00:34:36] See that as you want, but it sounds like, and even after having read the report, I actually went through this document and I encourage people to move from the back of the brainstem and use the cerebral cortex. [00:34:47] I know the government doesn't want people using their brains anymore. [00:34:49] I just want you to trust the science and. [00:34:52] Roll up your sleeves or whatever, or show the elbows. [00:34:54] What is it? [00:34:55] Elbows up. [00:34:57] Elbows up and on your knees is basically what it is. [00:35:00] I'm really promoting something called critical thinking and critical review. [00:35:04] Okay. [00:35:04] The debate about Alberta separation is going to be complicated. [00:35:07] It's going to get emotional, right? [00:35:09] Albertans have been getting the raw end of the deal for a long time. [00:35:12] And some of the studies show this like the substantive issues that Alberta has with the rest of Canada is serious and it's substantive. [00:35:19] And our government has not, the federal government has not been good to many people. [00:35:23] I don't need to name names. [00:35:24] There are millions. [00:35:27] And to many provinces, there's been legislation that was held up, ruled unconstitutional on the federal government's part. [00:35:32] There's been acts that have been very unconstitutional. [00:35:35] Here's looking at you, Canadian Armed Forces, who were found that their vaccine mandate was unconstitutional, violation of the Charter. [00:35:42] So there's a lot of grievances that Alberta legitimately has. [00:35:45] And so now trying to reframe this as Russia and US interference? [00:35:49] No, Well, this is the report, correct? [00:35:54] Oh, there you go. [00:35:54] Okay. [00:35:55] So, I mean, let me just see. [00:35:57] Oh, let's start with the top. [00:35:59] 43 pages. [00:36:01] Dan, it's so good. [00:36:02] Sorry, it's not good. [00:36:03] It's Orwellian. [00:36:04] Decision making and national unity under threat. [00:36:07] I did. [00:36:07] Okay, yep. [00:36:09] Yeah, no, it's nice. [00:36:11] At least they didn't choose red. [00:36:12] They should have chosen red if they really wanted to get the full. [00:36:14] But you know what? [00:36:15] Yellow on black is the inherent sort of bumblebee wasp contrast of colors for threat. [00:36:21] But okay. [00:36:21] Foreign interference, cognitive sovereignty, and the Alberta referendum. [00:36:27] Let's go. [00:36:27] Let's go. [00:36:28] I mean, let's walk through this a little bit. [00:36:29] Decision making now. [00:36:30] So these people, about the authors, Marcus Kolga, I'm not making fun of anybody, people. [00:36:35] I don't know who these people are. [00:36:37] I'm just going to read their bios. [00:36:38] You'll tell me what you know, Dan. [00:36:39] Journalist, human rights advocate, leading expert of foreign disinformation and influence operations. [00:36:43] He writes and comments in Canadian and international on Russian, Central, and Eastern European affairs, human rights, and authoritarian information warfare. [00:36:54] I got to find out. [00:36:55] Warfare. [00:36:55] Okay. [00:36:56] So that's already getting scared here. [00:36:58] Jenny Phillips, leader in research, education, social change with over 15 years of experience across humanitarian response, disaster risk reduction, global. [00:37:06] The problem is. [00:37:06] Interesting. [00:37:07] When they held their parliamentary hearings on Russian disinformation and they hauled in Lauren Southern, Lauren Chen, and they brought in Rachel Gilmore, the expert on disinformation, and you realize who their experts are and who their victims are. [00:37:24] The victims are the experts and the experts are the oppressors. [00:37:27] It's just wild. [00:37:30] Scrolling up, it's important to know. [00:37:33] No, to see the main page where you see the companies that put this together. [00:37:38] You see those organizations? [00:37:40] Yes, exactly. [00:37:41] Canadian Digital Media Research, Cypher AI, Cypher, like Lucifer? [00:37:48] No. [00:37:49] Decipher. [00:37:51] Okay, well, I see Louis Cypher. [00:37:52] Disinfo Watch, hilarious, and Global Center for Democratic Resilience. [00:37:57] So it's important people understand what a coalition is because I saw this during COVID. [00:38:01] Okay, a coalition is when multiple entities come together and they create a unified document, a unified website, or something. [00:38:08] I saw this during COVID and I called it out. [00:38:11] It was a coalition that was trying to get the kids vaccinated, they put together a website. [00:38:15] Okay. [00:38:16] And I was trying to find out who was, I wanted the person responsible for the website. [00:38:19] Like, who's behind this? [00:38:20] Like, could it take, it was really difficult to find and it shouldn't be. [00:38:23] So, kudos to people taking ownership for this document. [00:38:26] But what you see is with this coalition of companies here, a lot of them receive a lot of federal, well, I don't know how much, they receive federal money. [00:38:32] So, it's all a big, it's coming back around the federal government controlling in some way or funding this narrative and these projects. [00:38:41] Not to say that funding makes it, you know, impartial necessarily. [00:38:44] I think there are ways to keep, you know, take money from the federal government and do independent work. [00:38:47] It's the whole nature of an ombuds and all these people. [00:38:50] But you got to use your skills and see the way they're thinking in the report and challenge it because it's what the way they're doing it is not. [00:38:59] And so you read through this. [00:39:00] What are your biggest takeaways from this report? [00:39:02] The biggest takeaways is that the actual influence of, like, start with Russia. [00:39:07] The actual influence from Russia was like, and they said it in the document itself, it was like a website that wasn't very, like, two websites that weren't very active, and a YouTube and a TikTok channel that also weren't very influential. [00:39:20] Do you find the TikTok? [00:39:23] No. [00:39:23] No, I'm just saying that Russia's engagement with Alberta separatism is covert. [00:39:26] By the way, let me pause this and bring it up for just one second. [00:39:30] I make the joke, they're referring to interference, Dan, as covert and overt. [00:39:36] And so they're referring to interference as Trump pontificating or making statements about Canadian politics. [00:39:43] And if that's interference, Dan, every time the CBC says something negative about Trump, are they not engaging in overt election interference abroad? [00:39:52] So when they say it's so weak that they had to distinguish between covert and overt. [00:39:59] And so we'll start with the covert, which is Russia here, which is, it appears. [00:40:03] Doctrinal, operational, and sustained. [00:40:06] Russian government strategy has long emphasized exploiting divisive issues within Western democracies, also known as exactly what Western democracies do in Russia, or promoting the war in Ukraine against Russia, overt and covert. [00:40:22] Several lines of evidence link Russian aligned information infrastructure to Alberta separatist narratives, including Storm 1516 linked websites and social media accounts, early attention to Wexit by Sputnik. [00:40:35] This is a news outlet. [00:40:36] Sputnik. [00:40:37] And what's Pravda? [00:40:38] Do you know what? [00:40:38] It also talks about Pravda or something? [00:40:40] Pravda News Network? [00:40:41] Yeah, here it says. [00:40:41] And sustained pattern. [00:40:42] Oh, sorry. [00:40:42] Can you not see it? [00:40:43] And sustained pattern of Alberta focused content across the Pravda News Network. [00:40:48] The Pravda News Network provides especially important evidence of Russian narrative infrastructure. [00:40:53] But do you know what's amazing? [00:40:54] Who watches that? [00:40:55] I don't know anybody who goes to Pravda. [00:40:56] But no, just that. [00:40:57] But like, so any foreign social media account or any foreign news outlet covering Canadian news? [00:41:04] I mean, the irony of this is. [00:41:07] Sputnik, whether you think they're propaganda or not, it's a news outlet and they cover stuff they cover domestic and they cover international. [00:41:13] RT is not bad. [00:41:15] You go there occasionally, like part of the news consumption. [00:41:17] You obviously think critically about what they're writing, but it's a good outlet. [00:41:20] You know, you got to have a diversity. [00:41:21] I don't know about Pravda and the stuff there. [00:41:23] The AI crap is concerning. [00:41:25] I mean, people just got to know how to verify the AI jug. [00:41:29] But the reality is. [00:41:31] Don't go verify AI jugs, people. [00:41:33] You'll get a different search result. [00:41:34] Bada bing, bada boom. [00:41:35] Okay, fine. [00:41:38] But the conclusions they're making, like, Yes, you know, US, and I put this on Twitter, but like Alberta and sorry, if Alberta separates, Russia and the US will be stronger. [00:41:50] Like, because Russia will have a stronger hook on the North, and US will probably, you know, put their teeth into Alberta's resources. [00:41:58] So there is, you know, they have their desires. [00:42:01] But one of the things the article mentions was that an independent Alberta might be recognized by the international community, whether or not the federal government recognizes it. [00:42:09] And so they're like, whoa, if people recognize Alberta, then what? [00:42:13] Well, but the ultimate irony, and again, not to get hotly political, this is coming from the same government that recognized the Palestinian state, despite whatever objections you might make. [00:42:27] So it's, and whether or not that's political interference. [00:42:31] If the UN recognized Alberta, what would they say? [00:42:33] Like, what would happen then? === Reframing Alberta Narrative (14:43) === [00:42:34] Yeah. [00:42:35] And for everybody who knows, the final step of separation or secession would be the federal government authorizing it, which is why I say it's never going to happen because as much as Canada loves to beat, On Alberta, they're never letting that money cow leave the Federation. [00:42:50] Which is what I like, what I'm having trouble understanding too is like, so you have a federal government that has violated the law many times, violated the Constitution, the Charter. [00:43:00] And now, if Alberta declares independence, like they're, but if they violate the, like they have to comply with the law, like it's a weird relationship. [00:43:08] If Alberta votes strongly in favor of separation, the federal government's going to have a real hard time justifying anything. [00:43:15] But, you know, let's go through this because these are the over points and it's just hilarious. [00:43:20] Pravda News Network provides especially important evidence of Russian narrative infrastructure. [00:43:24] What the hell does that mean? [00:43:26] Oh, what's the matter? [00:43:28] Can I bring it back here? [00:43:29] I lost it on my screen. [00:43:30] Okay. [00:43:31] Russian infrastructure between December, whatever. [00:43:34] Alberta, Albertans, 51st state, were the subject of 67 articles in Pravda's Canada section. [00:43:40] Well, what other section would it go in compared with only 14 mentions of Ontario? [00:43:45] Yeah, because there's no movement for Ontario to separate, otherwise known as not being in the news. [00:43:50] The content repeatedly portrays Alberta separatism as popular. [00:43:53] That's a matter of opinion. [00:43:55] Even if it only has 15%, that's pretty popular. [00:43:57] Alberta is economically exploited. [00:43:59] That's a known conservative talking point. [00:44:01] And you see how they're conflating now what they're going to call Russian talking points with conservative talking points and foreign support as recognition as plausible. [00:44:11] And then you get into the overt. [00:44:14] By the way, I was going to Google how many times the CBC has mentioned Russia. [00:44:19] And just, you know, it's a grok search result. [00:44:21] CBC has prominently, repeatedly mentioned Russia in its coverage of Alberta. [00:44:25] So, I mean, it's an amazing thing. [00:44:27] CBC is mentioning Russia, but Russia mentions Alberta, and one is interference, and the other one is just news coverage and not some form of interference or some sort of narrative manufacturing. [00:44:37] Then you get to the overt, which is Trump making statements. [00:44:39] MAGA aligned influencer ecosystem is a major application vector for influence. [00:44:44] Did they mention me in this? [00:44:46] Oh, did they? [00:44:46] No, you're on a list, though. [00:44:48] You're on. [00:44:49] Oh, come on. [00:44:50] No, you're on other lists. [00:44:53] I'm not trying hard. [00:44:54] The MAGA movement. [00:44:55] Let's go all the way back. [00:44:56] Hold on a second. [00:44:57] Maybe it would be under Freiheit. [00:44:59] No, no, no. [00:44:59] It's a very brief report. [00:45:02] They mentioned Tucker. [00:45:03] Come on. [00:45:03] I mean, I've done interviews on RT. [00:45:05] They haven't. [00:45:06] That's not to. [00:45:07] Okay. [00:45:08] Go back up. [00:45:08] Okay. [00:45:08] We got to go back down to there because there's some good nuggets in here. [00:45:11] Oh, yeah. [00:45:11] No, we're going. [00:45:12] Nuggets. [00:45:12] Nuggets of turd is what it is. [00:45:14] Oh, the tenant media case. [00:45:17] This is the wrap up smear that they've done. [00:45:19] Correct. [00:45:20] The CBC, the Canadian government, manufactured the tenant media scandal. [00:45:25] And then they go and now report on it as though it was news of evidence of Russian interference. [00:45:30] Lauren Chen never faced any charges. [00:45:31] Nothing ever came of it because it was bullshit manufactured nonsense. [00:45:35] Sorry, Dan, what were you going to highlight? [00:45:37] No, I got to find it. [00:45:39] There's different parts. [00:45:40] What page are you on now? [00:45:42] I'm still in the intro. [00:45:42] This is. [00:45:43] No, you got to skip page slopaganda. [00:45:46] I love this. [00:45:47] AI MAGA, the MAGA aligned influencer ecosystem is a major amplification vector of influence. [00:45:53] Figures such as Tucker Carlson, Steve Banner, Benny Johnson, Tim Pool have used large online platforms to promote claims about Canadian instability, Alberta separation, or potential U.S. absorption of. [00:46:02] Do you know how many people have talked about this? [00:46:05] This matters because influencers increasingly command more attention than traditional institutions and can move fringe narratives into mainstream public debate. [00:46:14] Do you understand what they're basically saying here? [00:46:16] We're no longer in control of the narrative because independent media has influence. [00:46:21] And we need the CBC, who's now reporting on this and promoting this bullshit story, to get more of a grip on narrative and media. [00:46:30] That's a nice way of saying it. [00:46:32] They're losing control of the narrative. [00:46:33] And I think that's. [00:46:34] I think that's part of an explicit, that's their overt method of dealing with this. [00:46:40] They need to reframe the narrative. [00:46:41] And the narrative, by the way, that's going to be coming out of this is exactly that: that there's foreign influence and people are being victims of disinformation and misinformation rather than the substantive facts, which is that Alberta has been getting screwed. [00:46:53] So, you know, it's amazing. [00:46:54] They're going to use this to suppress and silence and censor and control Canadian media even more than they're already doing. [00:47:01] And that's why I liked the RCMP coming out the same day and saying, no, Because if you look at the bottom, they want to use, I think, all kinds of tools. [00:47:09] I think they talk about police at the bottom. [00:47:11] What page is that on? [00:47:12] This is what I wanted to get to. [00:47:12] I remember this here. [00:47:14] Which? [00:47:15] 62%. [00:47:16] While these threats exist, awareness of foreign interference risk is not uniform, and the gap between perception and reality may itself determine the fate of democratic decision making at this critical juncture. [00:47:26] Notably, public concern about foreign interference has inverted dramatically over a remarkably short period. [00:47:33] As figure seven shows from July 24 to April 26, concern about Russian interference fell from 52% to 42%, while concern about U.S. surged from 39 to 62 over the same period. [00:47:46] It was only as a result, ironically enough, of that surge that the Liberals got elected, which is the ultimate irony, peaking at 71% in early 2026, almost certainly driven by Trump's Greenland annexation, threats of his Davos speech, in which he posted AI generated images of US flags planted on Canadian soil. [00:48:06] US interference is overt. [00:48:07] Canadians can directly observe and form views on the statements and actions of their neighbor to the South. [00:48:13] Are they suggesting that Trump can't talk about Canadian politics anymore? [00:48:18] He's got to toe the line. [00:48:19] He's got to go in place or talk in line. [00:48:24] Stay in his lane. [00:48:24] I don't know. [00:48:25] Yeah. [00:48:30] This guy, by the way, if this is true, Rock Monster Mouth says Oh, no, sorry. [00:48:39] There's nothing where they're saying he couldn't vote or had trouble. [00:48:42] Viva and your brother. [00:48:43] No offense. [00:48:44] Russia isn't America's friend. [00:48:46] Russia isn't America's friend. [00:48:48] The flags in the same storm rising. [00:48:49] If God, America. [00:48:51] Okay. [00:48:51] So, no, there's another one we were talking about concerns about like vote, like how to delegitimize the G, delegitimize whatever the like the results of elections and stuff and like narratives that might get planted in to make everybody turn into everybody into a conspiracy theory theorist. [00:49:08] So, yeah, like election, let's say if the referendum isn't favorable, will people start saying, oh, it was, it was, you know, it was a fraud cover up where ballots were missing. [00:49:19] So, there's that whole angle that can be played up. [00:49:21] I want to bring this back up here and just bring up the slopaganda, which is a great word. [00:49:25] No, I want you. [00:49:26] Slopaganda. [00:49:28] Hold on, there's a part of it. [00:49:29] You gave it up. [00:49:29] The AI slop network. [00:49:31] This is a problem just for information in general, not politically motivated disinformation in particular. [00:49:37] You'll have AI slopaganda, which will show like a nuclear bomb detonating and people will start flipping out, even though it's AI. [00:49:43] Researchers at the Canadian Digital Media Research have identified. [00:49:46] That's the one that's funded partly by our federal government and other. [00:49:50] They're all. [00:49:50] The anti hate network is funded by the Canadian government. [00:49:52] They make up the hate that the government then claims to. [00:49:56] Be the basis to go after politically disfavored targets. [00:49:59] So the CDMRN have identified a coordinated network of AI generated content targeting regional grievances in Western Canada, including Alberta. [00:50:07] The content, often referred to as AI slop or slopaganda, combines generative AI tools with paid voiceover actors to produce highly templated, emotionally manipulative videos designed to mimic authentic Canadian political commentary. [00:50:20] The network, first identified by Canadian press journalist, oh, I'd love to see who she works for, includes YouTube channels such as Canadian Reporter, which produces content heavily focused on Alberta and politically. [00:50:30] Sensitive Canadian issues. [00:50:32] Hale Hodgson and her team found that some of the individuals who presented themselves as Canadian commentators were, in fact, voice actors based outside of Canada, including in the United States. [00:50:41] Were they Canadian? [00:50:45] A subsequent CBC investigation found some of the accounts are linked to actors in the Netherlands. [00:50:49] Is it potential? [00:50:50] A, are they Canadians? [00:50:52] And B, so the hell what? [00:50:55] People in foreign countries can't comment on the politics in other countries now? [00:50:59] Host of these chats. [00:51:00] Let's see what's going on here. [00:51:03] Oh, that's amazing. [00:51:04] You're getting these channels. [00:51:05] This looks. [00:51:06] Which account is this? [00:51:07] Hosts on these channels frequently present themselves as authentic Albertan voices, despite clear indicators that they are not locally rooted, including repeated factual errors, mispronunciations, and a lack of. [00:51:17] Oh, my goodness. [00:51:18] We don't like it. [00:51:19] And this is the. [00:51:20] We don't like the internet. [00:51:22] Canadian reporter YouTube channel. [00:51:23] Let's see what their numbers are like 22,000. [00:51:26] Yeah. [00:51:27] Okay. [00:51:27] That actually is. [00:51:28] So those channels are. [00:51:29] That's not. [00:51:30] That's not Pravda. [00:51:30] That's something else, right? [00:51:32] No, that's the Canadian reporter. [00:51:34] But unclear. [00:51:35] I mean, I'm going to go check it out because it's unclear if it's even. [00:51:38] Not a Canadian or a Canadian living abroad. [00:51:40] But even still, even if it's not, this goes one place and one place only. [00:51:45] They want full control over the internet. [00:51:47] They want to ban AI generated content. [00:51:49] At least that's not their own. [00:51:50] And by the way, the organizations that put together this report relied heavily on AI scouring devices. [00:51:57] So they basically use AI to search the internet and to search different sites and put together this report. [00:52:03] So interesting that they like it. [00:52:04] They don't like the generative AI, but they're okay with the other form of AI, which is very nice. [00:52:10] It's actually astonishing. [00:52:11] What they want to do is they want to suppress the actual people who are real voices, like Tim Pool, Benny Johnson, Tucker Carlson, whomever. [00:52:17] They want to ban or whatever, censor the AI, which they deem to be not legitimate content. [00:52:22] They want to ban people who are not living in Canada commenting on Canadian, or they're going to do that. [00:52:27] And they want the president to shut up about Canadian politics, overt political interference, disinformation campaigns. [00:52:34] I don't think they would want them to shut up if they were pro narrative. [00:52:37] I think they would turn a blind eye in that case. [00:52:39] They wouldn't devote so much resources to it if it was in favor of staying together. [00:52:44] This is the most stunning document in terms of what is itself pure political propaganda. [00:52:52] Right. [00:52:53] Russia, the United States, and profit driven economic opportunists, also known as news outlets, represent three distinct categories of actor operating in Alberta's information environment with different methods, different levels of coordination, and different degrees of intent. [00:53:11] They don't want people supporting. [00:53:13] Uh, politically or with speech, Alberta's move to secede or the movement to secede. [00:53:21] I get it, it's valid. [00:53:22] That's their job is to keep Canada together. [00:53:24] I don't blame them for holding on to keep Canada together. [00:53:26] But how you do it, you don't suppress voices by making these collateral attacks on who's funding them. [00:53:33] Of course, you do. [00:53:34] That's the best way to do it. [00:53:35] Because even when nothing comes of the charges, two years later, everybody still thinks Tenet Media and Lauren Chen are Russian propagandists, and people still call Tim Poole a Russian agent, and Dave Rubin and Benny Johnson, and uh, Matt Christensen. [00:53:48] I mean, the defamation lingers and lasts beyond the disproving of the defamation and the defamatory statements. [00:53:55] But now another group has come up with the same thing. [00:53:57] And it was this one by Ecos. [00:54:00] I just posted it. [00:54:03] On X? [00:54:04] Yeah, Ecos came up with their own report. [00:54:08] I think they were hired, I'm not sure, but for the Alberta Labor Foundation, Federation of Labor. [00:54:15] I don't know exactly. [00:54:16] But this was another report where. [00:54:21] It's been said that people, they came up with a new index called the Disinformation Index, and Alberta ranks higher than other provinces on it. [00:54:32] And the Disinformation Index is based on questions that ECOS asks to this population. [00:54:36] And I need to see what those questions are because it's probably questions that are, you know. [00:54:43] You know what? [00:54:43] Now I'm thinking maybe I didn't make it into the report because I was sufficiently critical of the Pierre Poilier election campaign. [00:54:48] But oh, that'll piss off some people in Canada. [00:54:51] They're not going to go, they can't do all the. [00:54:53] But you're also not peddling the influence and the disinformation that. [00:54:56] I'm not peddling influence, Sam. [00:54:58] I've been denigratedly called an influencer. [00:55:00] Conclusions, by the way, this is it. [00:55:02] Defending the right of all Canadians to express themselves, Canadians, and participate freely and legally, protect the democratic process, including debates about Alberta's place within the Confederation, is a responsibility shared by governments, media, civil society, and every citizen. [00:55:16] That responsibility includes protecting Canadians from foreign governments, state aligned media, and ideological networks that seek to influence public opinion, affect, Democratic outcomes distort our information environment and undermine our ability to make decisions free from foreign manipulation and coercion. [00:55:32] When external actors amplify separatist narratives or encourage national rupture, the issue is no longer a matter of provincial politics. [00:55:42] It becomes a direct threat to Canada's democratic integrity, national security, and cognitive sovereignty. [00:55:50] What the fuck does that mean? [00:55:52] Sorry. [00:55:53] Last line interventions that invest in trust before the campaign. [00:55:56] Campaign begins are therefore not preparatory. [00:55:59] They are the primary defense. [00:56:01] Interventions that invest in trust before the campaign begins. [00:56:05] Then this will happen. [00:56:06] So then CBC picks this up. [00:56:08] Then the Minister of Public Safety picks this up. [00:56:10] And they're like, well, you need a whole of government approach based on reports from the CBC, based on this new report from digital, whatever. [00:56:17] This is how they do it. [00:56:17] They're going to have the whole government response to prevent this project. [00:56:21] You know what the ultimate irony is in all of this? [00:56:23] You want to talk about foreign influence? [00:56:25] They still haven't identified which 12 MPs are Chinese assets. [00:56:31] The Canadian government, like, I want to ask who wrote that memo? [00:56:33] Was it China that wrote that memo? [00:56:35] Because we know that China has infiltrated the Canadian government, what's the word? [00:56:41] Imposes its influence in Canadian politics. [00:56:44] That memo could be written by China to turn Canada into another vassal of Chinese Communist Party communism in Canada. [00:56:53] And they ignore it. [00:56:54] They still won't tell us who the members of parliament were either unwitting or agents of China. [00:56:58] Which memo? [00:56:59] The one, this digital media thing? [00:57:01] Yeah, this whole thing, this whole digital media memo could have been written by China itself. [00:57:06] Well, the people took responsibility, like the five authors took responsibility for it. [00:57:10] So, not to worry about that. [00:57:11] I'm going into a little bit of deep dives to see who funded, what their ties are. [00:57:16] Well, then go to those organizations at the top. === Digital Media Memo Origins (06:33) === [00:57:18] That's where you'll see. [00:57:18] Oh, no, no. [00:57:19] I got my afternoon. [00:57:20] I got my plan for the afternoon. [00:57:22] Hold on. [00:57:22] Go back up, though, because there's something also kind of juicy in there. [00:57:24] If you go into page 13 under section 3.12, active operators. [00:57:29] Active operators. [00:57:30] So, page 13, section 3.1.2. [00:57:35] Point two. [00:57:36] Active operations. [00:57:37] You see, let me see, we got the same thing up here. [00:57:39] Good. [00:57:39] Active operations. [00:57:41] A 2025 recorded future report on Storm 1516, a covert Russian influence operation associated by researchers with Yevgeny Prigozhin's Internet Research Agency, St. Petersburg Troll Farm, identified two websites attributed to Russian operations promoting pro separatist content as early as May 2025, including albertaseparatist.com. [00:58:05] And the TikTok account. [00:58:07] Read the next line, it's important. [00:58:09] Although engagement appears to have been limited across platforms, so they actually have no influence, their presence provides further evidence. [00:58:17] So, although they are only two, limited, you want to scour the infinite terrain of the internet and find two shitty accounts that have no meaningful engagement. [00:58:30] Their presence provides further evidence of a presence. [00:58:33] They take up space, their mere existence shows that there's something going on. [00:58:38] Content published to the site. [00:58:40] Includes conspiracy theories, anti LGBTQ content. [00:58:43] Oh, like there's no Canadians who are wholly against that. [00:58:46] And significant content focusing on supporting the Alberta Separatist movement, figure two. [00:58:52] Anyone who now supports Alberta Separatists is going to be linked, they have ties to Russia backed assets now and Russian influence. [00:58:58] It's clearly the victim of Russian influence. [00:59:00] Although it's only two accounts in the infinite landscape of the internet with minimal accounts, that's a big risk. [00:59:06] And we need to preemptively save the, what was it, cognitive sovereignty of Canada. [00:59:11] We need to suppress. [00:59:14] Uh, demonetize and um, you know, algorithmically eliminate where was cognitive sovereignty during COVID? [00:59:20] It was like, yeah, well, take it. [00:59:25] When did the term cognitive sovereignty first appear? [00:59:32] Okay, this can't be a very old term, yeah. [00:59:37] But you're uh, you're screwed up there, Dan. [00:59:38] So, um, hold on, you got something else I had to show you on page the top of page 14. [00:59:43] Okay, they're quoting. [00:59:47] This is hilarious. [00:59:49] Top of page 14. [00:59:50] We weren't far from that. [00:59:52] The next one here. [00:59:53] Top of page 14. [00:59:54] Another claims Ottawa is stealing 20,000 annually. [00:59:57] This is a Russian based foreign influencer website claiming that Ottawa is stealing. [01:00:01] By the way, the word stealing was never used. [01:00:03] It was siphoning. [01:00:05] So that's a dramatic change. [01:00:07] The redistribution payments is also, I think a lot of Canadians, or at least a lot of Albertans, view that as outright theft. [01:00:15] Theft to someone is always just redistribution to the communists. [01:00:19] Okay. [01:00:20] Another claims Ottawa is stealing, they don't even put it in quotes if they didn't actually say it, 20,000 annually from each Albertan family, citing a University of Calgary paper that bases this figure on a historical per capita accounting average through 2018, not an annual bill. [01:00:34] False framing designed to exploit economic grievances and deepen division. [01:00:39] So I wish, so this was a Russian paper, quote, or website quoting a Calgary university or whatever. [01:00:46] Yeah, University of Calgary document that said, The way I understood it, that Calgaryans have overpaid by around, by families of five or six, I forget, by like $20,000 a year. [01:00:59] Like that's the annual. [01:01:00] So, in other words, I don't think they've really contradicted the Calgary paper, which is a Canadian based, the Calgary University document, which is Canadian based. [01:01:10] They just didn't like how that it wasn't reframed properly. [01:01:13] So, they're citing like foreign groups that are actually quoting domestic, like Calgary based opinions. [01:01:20] Alberta based opinions. [01:01:22] So it's totally wild how they've, they're totally reframing and trying to redesign the. [01:01:28] I'm going to get a quick one. [01:01:29] How much does Alberta pay in equalization payments per capita? [01:01:33] We'll see what the answer to that is. [01:01:35] But it's curious, if they didn't actually use the word steal and they didn't put the word steal in quotes, that is itself a substantial, meaningful misrepresentation. [01:01:45] Correct. [01:01:45] The word, it may have been in a, even the link that they sent did not have the, it didn't have the word. [01:01:52] It may have been in a video. [01:01:52] You know what's amazing? [01:01:53] I can't even, it's not even allowing me to click on the hyperlink. [01:01:56] Yeah, I know what there's something that's a bit off, but if you copy and paste it or something. [01:02:00] No, no, no. [01:02:01] Go at the bottom. [01:02:03] I think there's a reference at the bottom you could click. [01:02:06] Let's see here. [01:02:07] Maybe I can. [01:02:07] Siphoning, stealing, swiping, it's all the same. [01:02:10] No, siphoning is, you can siphon a lot of things legally, siphon your fish tank. [01:02:16] Stealing is a crime. [01:02:17] If you accuse someone of stealing, that's borderline slanderous. [01:02:20] Swiping is also not, you could swipe something, yoink, swipe. [01:02:24] So it's a lot more, like, no, you don't accuse someone of stealing. [01:02:29] Swiping is a crime. [01:02:30] The most commonly cited figure of net outflow of approximately $20 billion per year, $4,100 per capita. [01:02:38] To see what that was a few years ago. [01:02:41] I don't know the numbers. [01:02:42] You get the experts to figure it out. [01:02:43] They're overpaying. [01:02:45] They're subsidizing other provinces, period. [01:02:49] I've been in OntarioSlash Quebec most of my life. [01:02:51] I didn't know that they were benefiting so much from Alberta. [01:02:54] Hydroelectricity is excluded from the revenues that determine what a province pays, so that Quebec gets basically a blank check for the hydroelectricity that it produces and sells. [01:03:04] Yeah. [01:03:07] But. [01:03:09] You know, it's not just the amount Alberta's been paying into other provinces or outside of Alberta. [01:03:15] It's the opportunities that they've been missing because of federal legislative restraints on maximizing wealth. [01:03:23] And, you know, I don't know if it's even if Alberta separates, if they're going to have an easy sailing to doing some of the things they want to do. [01:03:30] But a lot of the federal government's ideology and agenda has really hammered down Alberta. [01:03:37] And you can't now hammer them down by calling them all disinformation and misinformation victims. [01:03:43] You can, and you're going to censor, they're going to demote, uh, they're going to demote or algorithmically suppress. === Censorship and Suppression (06:39) === [01:03:52] Go on your phone. [01:03:52] Are you able to, uh, are you able to view Patrick Bet David's podcast on Instagram in Canada? [01:03:59] Patrick David, Patrick Bet David, um, PBD Podcast, PBD Podcast. [01:04:05] Go on Instagram and see if you can access it. [01:04:07] Because the last time I was told by someone that you go to access it, it says it's not available in your region. [01:04:13] Uh, no, I think I see it. [01:04:16] PBD Podcast, a popular business and entrepreneur podcast recently by Nick Shirley. [01:04:21] Oh, yeah, yeah. [01:04:22] Nick Shirley was just on him earlier this week talking about how. [01:04:25] I think it's, yeah, I can see. [01:04:27] You're an entrepreneur. [01:04:28] It's interesting. [01:04:29] Anyways, I did know that someone sent me a screenshot and it's just impossible to verify. [01:04:34] No, but that's what they want to do. [01:04:35] It's obvious. [01:04:38] It's so egregiously stupid for anybody who goes and reads it. [01:04:41] Nobody's going to go to read that report. [01:04:43] You're going to get news reporting it and then people just retweeting, reposting the summary, which is Russia and America are interfering. [01:04:50] Covertly and overtly, and it sounds ever so scary in Canadian politics. [01:04:54] Well, and I think the online community is good and, you know, good at kind of shutting down the bogus reports. [01:05:00] We just got to be clear and concise, like with this, you know, just go through each of these reports and say, yeah, there's some good points in there. [01:05:06] For example, I didn't know that the trend for separation is it goes up significantly as you get closer to the date of the vote. [01:05:14] Did you know this? [01:05:15] So, meaning if there's 20 to 30% in favor of now, it swings a lot higher as you get closer to the date of the vote. [01:05:20] I didn't know that. [01:05:21] Well, I'm not sure what their metric is if they only go by the last two referendums that we've had. [01:05:27] No, they would, like for Brexit and for, where was it? [01:05:31] Even for Quebec, the percentage that said they would vote in favor of separation was pretty lower, you know, but it increased as they got closer to the day of. [01:05:40] It kind of makes sense. [01:05:40] I mean, nobody's going to lose their interests the closer. [01:05:43] I guess I know. [01:05:45] All right. [01:05:46] Well, that's fun stuff, Dan. [01:05:47] Let me bring up your X account. [01:05:50] People can go. [01:05:50] Yeah, scribe it. [01:05:51] It's lying. [01:05:52] It's lying advocacy, and it's right here. [01:05:55] All right, subscribe. [01:05:56] I've got to get to 40,000 by the end of June. [01:05:59] Make injustice visible. [01:06:02] Someone's going to tinker with that and it's going to say make justice invisible. [01:06:06] Oh, that's that. [01:06:07] Make justice invisible or Canada making justice invisible since 2015. [01:06:13] Dan, yeah, always a pleasure. [01:06:15] It's good to catch up. [01:06:16] We don't do it enough. [01:06:17] I should probably call you offline and we'll see if you know how mom and dad are doing. [01:06:22] I didn't know, I just follow you on the socials to find out you had a dog or something. [01:06:26] You got a new, yeah, we got a new dog, Manny. [01:06:28] Manny, the man, he looks like a manatee. [01:06:31] He's good. [01:06:32] Then yesterday, I'm doing a stream, he he peed and pooed in the office, just like he got excited, and then uh. [01:06:38] He let one rip. [01:06:40] Some, yeah, you should have a workplace policy against that. [01:06:43] Let him do that. [01:06:44] Yeah. [01:06:45] No shit in the studio. [01:06:47] I'll put up a sign. [01:06:48] The dog walks into Windows. [01:06:50] We'll see if he can read. [01:06:52] All right. [01:06:52] Lion Advocacy. [01:06:53] Everybody knows where to find you. [01:06:54] I'll put your link up in the. [01:06:55] Thanks for the promo. [01:06:56] Yeah. [01:06:56] Neurodivergent one put me in there. [01:06:58] Neurodivergent one. [01:06:59] Yeah. [01:06:59] Neurodivergent is the mod and he does great work. [01:07:02] Show Manny. [01:07:03] Manny's not in the office right now because I don't think either dog is in the office. [01:07:08] All right, man. [01:07:08] Well, that's good stuff. [01:07:09] Go. [01:07:09] Have a good week. [01:07:11] More updates later. [01:07:11] We have to. [01:07:12] Do this more often. [01:07:13] Oh, yeah. [01:07:14] Crazy stuff coming down the pike. [01:07:15] Okay. [01:07:16] All right, man. [01:07:17] Talk soon. [01:07:17] Bye. [01:07:19] That's my brother, people. [01:07:20] And that's what's going on in Canada. [01:07:22] I'm going to go highlight a few of those sections from that report because it's just, it's beyond stupid. [01:07:31] All right. [01:07:31] What are we going to do right now? [01:07:32] Let me see what I got going on in the backdrop here. [01:07:34] I'm going to kick my brother out of the stage so I can bring up another window here. [01:07:39] We got the appeals, E. Gene Carroll. [01:07:42] We got something that I'm going to bring up in a second. [01:07:44] There was another video. [01:07:47] That I wanted to start the show with. [01:07:50] And now I don't remember what it was, but I've got it in the backdrop. [01:07:55] We're going to. [01:07:56] Well, we're going to do this in the after party. [01:07:58] We're going to save one good story, which is going to be what's going on in Virginia. [01:08:02] And there is at least one hilarious video that we're going to play that's going to make you laugh. [01:08:12] Yeah. [01:08:12] And what we're going to do right now, we're going to go raid Redacted. [01:08:16] Is it Redacted? [01:08:16] No, it's not Redacted. [01:08:16] It's Matt Morse TV. [01:08:19] Let's go raid Matt Morse and we will see if. [01:08:23] Oh, hold on one second. [01:08:24] Before we do anything, we got tipped questions up here to bring. [01:08:26] I didn't check in on Rumble in a little bit. [01:08:30] We got King of Biltong who's in the house. [01:08:31] I see it right there, adding it to the stream right now. [01:08:35] Biltong says King of Biltong, Biltong is one of the highest protein snacks available. [01:08:39] It's also incredibly satiating and keeps you fueled all day. [01:08:44] Visit Biltongusa.com and use code AVIVA for 10% off. [01:08:49] And we got M. Sidloy in the house who says, Canada isn't going to let Alberta leave easily. [01:08:54] The Clarity Act makes it possible for the federal government to play all kinds of games. [01:08:58] They want Alberta money and want Alberta to pay up and shut up. [01:09:02] And M. Sidloy says, Unlike you sinners, Anton's firm and juicy meat has never entered my mouth, nor have I ever entertained such unkosher thoughts. [01:09:10] That said, let us all salute Anton at BiltongUSA.com. [01:09:15] Truly a king among men. [01:09:17] Yes, because M. Sidloy, who occasionally posts in Hebrew, is probably, I would imagine, kosher. [01:09:23] And I do not imagine that Biltong makes a kosher friendly. [01:09:26] In fact, I know they don't because the drier world, the sausages things have pork in them, which is exactly what makes them as delicious as they are. [01:09:37] Okay, with that said, now we're going to go over to vivabarnslaw.locals.com. [01:09:41] We're going to raid Matt Morse, link, bada bing, bada boom. [01:09:46] And let's go raid Matt Morse. [01:09:48] And then we shall have our final story of the day, Virginia. [01:09:52] And you're not going to raid the Nun Report, please, Polish dog. [01:09:54] Let me see who the Nun Report is. [01:09:57] None reports. [01:09:59] Let's see this here with Dan Nunn. [01:10:02] Is he live though? [01:10:05] The Nun Report with Dan Nunn does not appear to be live right now. [01:10:09] Oh, no, he does. [01:10:10] Dem's in full panic. [01:10:14] Oh, yeah, what the hell? [01:10:15] Let's spread the love around here. [01:10:18] The Nun Report, people. [01:10:20] Don't know who it is. [01:10:20] This is not an endorsement, but go raid and let him know from whence he came and let me know if you like it. [01:10:25] And we're going to go viva raid. [01:10:27] Booyah. [01:10:28] Okay, and now we are going to go update the stream and
