Cecil, happy post-independence day. How was your tanks and airplanes parade of jingoism?

I celebrated by throwing an alligator into Humble Park. How crazy is that? Okay. How crazy is that? Okay, before we start, did you hear that there was a poll to name him? No. So they had a poll online to name him. His name is the best.

Okay. Chance the snapper. I love it. I love it so much. So guys, there's a five foot alligator swimming in like one of the little humble parks. Yeah.

It's awesome. One of the best parts is there's like a, like a alligator watch and people are dressing up their pets. There's like a picture of a dog with like a little alligator costume. Chicago is the best, man. There's like a bunch of people like trying to get an Instagram photo of the fucking alligator.

They're trying to cage the fucking thing off. Lori Lightfoot's like, what the fuck is happening, man? Oh, it's so good well my my favorite thing to think about is like somebody had to get a call like there's an alley and they'd be like get the fuck out of here did you see the original post social media post no it looks it's like a five-foot alligator someone was like and it's like coming up on top of the water they took a fucking photo of it they're like a, a fucking alligator, man. And they posted it on Facebook. But it's listed in the article.

They're saying, like, basically, like, this had to be someone's pet because there's no way it survived the winter. Right. Right? So it had to be released recently into the water. Yeah. I love thinking about that because I love the idea of somebody being like, four foot ten. Four foot. All right.

No, I didn't think it was just going to keep getting bigger. Said the guy who doesn't know how alligators work. He's asking, he's like, so, I got this alligator. It's not going to get any bigger. I shouldn't get it wet or feed it after midnight. How does this work? I don't understand

how alligators work. And I love the idea that he's like, oh, fuck this. This is too much. What should I do? I'm going to put it in my car and I'm going to drive around to this. It wasn't too much at four foot nine.

I know. Like, it was fine. Oh, man, this is getting a little out of hand. He's just finally, he's like, fuck, I can't feed you

this whole food, free range chicken every day. Chance the snapper. I just can't do it. And then like, you got to like load it up. I just can't do it. And then like, you got to like load it up. I've just pictured like it's in the car,

like in the passenger seat, like head crane forward, little arms. Like, are we going to get that? You've got like, you like put a hat on him. So you're like,

no officer. I was just having a very ugly child. It's definitely not an alligator that I'm going to put in a pond. I know, right? Look, I used to live in Florida. You assume all the ponds have alligators

in them because they do. They all have all the lakes, the streams, the ponds. Maybe your pool. They all have alligators. We don't assume that here. That's not a natural fucking assumption. I think like you let it go and you're like, well, I've discharged my moral responsibility

by letting this apex predator run free where it's not expected. I wouldn't want to hurt the alligator. Up here, we don't consider all parks full of alligators, but we do think all parking lots are filled with sewer rats.

The other thing too you got to think is like, I bet you the sewer rats already shook this thing down for part of its chicken. They're just like, no, no, this is my fucking,

this is my territory. You got to pay me in fucking chicken over here. What are you fucking doing? File that under the devil you know, Cecil. I just, I just think it's crazy

that there's like a fucking alligator and our mayor is calling it Gator Gates. This is the best week I've been dying. There's been so many great shit. Trump had his, like you started out with Trump's jingoism parade, right? Which was him talking about revolutionary war airports.

Okay. Can we call up what he said real quick? Sure. Because the best thing in the entire world happened when he gave his 4th of July speech, which he blamed on a bad teleprompter, as if reading something out of a teleprompter this asinine and not being like,

wait a minute, did you not read the speech ahead of time? He said he memorized it, so clearly he must have read it ahead of time. But the other thing too is like, he's conflating two wars. Like there's two wars that two different things happen. So even if the fucking teleprompter didn't be like,

I'm really going to fuck with them. I'm going to add this other thing that totally wasn't in before. It's not like a random word generator. It's not like the only problematic thing he says in the speech. The speech is fucking amazing. Let me-

But here's the speech part. Yeah. He says, in June of 1775, the Continental Congress created a unified army out of the Revolutionary Forces and camped around Boston and New York and named after the great George Washington,

Commander-in-Chief. The Continental Army suffered a bitter winter of Valley Forge, not at, but of, found glory across the waters of the Delaware. I mean, we're,

and seized victory from Cornwallis of Yorktown. No, that's actually not true. So we're off. We're a little, this is the best. Our army,

now this says unclear, but I've read a bunch of these. It says, our army manned the air is what he is, is what it sounds like. It rammed the ramparts. Yeah, he said rammed the ramparts. Nobody says that.

Nobody writes a speech like, you know, it'd be good. Let's use the first three letters. It's some weird alliteration. Yeah, I know. It's like a weird alliteration. It's like a bizarre, okay, rammed the ramparts.

Hey, there's ramparts. What do we do? We ram them. It would be better instead of alliteration if he used automata P. He's like,, rammed the ramparts. Hey, there's ramparts! What do we do? Well, we ram them! It would be better instead of alliteration if you used automata P. It's like, we banged the ramparts!

We boomed the ramparts! We zip-zop-zooped the ramparts! Do we ram the whole thing? No, just part of the ramparts! It's in the word what you do! Fucking... This is why I'm the general, stupid! Oh, Jesus Christ

it took over it took over the airports oh god the airports and then classic Trump it did everything it had to do

what do we do guys I don't know invent an airport 200 or 150 years ahead of your time and then you know everything else you gotta do

to win the war and brave Franklin stood at the hot gates at Thermopylae with the brave 300 Ben Franklin jumping over those guys with his spear Spear and spectacles

He let his kite go for it is too light It's fucking ridiculous And he says at Fort McHenry under the rocket's red glare it had nothing but victory and when dawn came their stars spangled banner waved defiantly. Everything is wrong with this speech. He knows nothing.

I know. You know nothing, Jon Snow. I want him to do the next speech about Reagan and Russia and talk about the cold sore. What the fuck, man? This is our president. Thank you. God damn it.

It's so embarrassing. Can't you just wear a tan suit like other fucking disgraced presidents? God. Not fucking like, just get a blowjob. Just get a blowjob from your secretary or whatever you gotta do. God, it's so embarrassing too

because it's not just that. it's so many other things that happened in the last couple of weeks. And we're going to be covering Trump a lot, but it's mainly his reactions to shit that we're covering. And it's been specific to this. He's, again, it's like they say to him, hey man, you fucked that speech up. And instead of being like, yeah, I fucked that up. I was just, you know, I was going off the cuff

and I just, you know, I just, I was, I was in the moment. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that. You're right. There weren't airports. Yeah.

Of course there weren't airports. It's just, I was just, I was just talking. I knew that I was thinking about the airplanes are going to be flying overhead. Yeah. Giving us all fucking

patriotic boners here in a few minutes. Giving us patriotic chemtrails that we paid them to do. But yeah. Yeah. You know, like we paid them to do. But yeah. Yeah. You know, like it's easy to fix, but instead he doubles down

on everything he ever says wrong. He doubles down. Because he's never, in his mind, he's never made anything approaching an error. Yeah. Right? Yeah. He's never made a mistake.

He's the living embodiment of perfection. Every decision's the right decision. He's such a fucking crazy narcissist. It's unbelievable. Yeah. Can we talk about like the fucking crazy narcissist it's unbelievable yeah can we talk about like the fucking crazy parade the fourth of july celebration is typically not a political celebration it's not the president it's inappropriate for the president typically to show up and give a politically motivated campaign. Campaign speech. Right. And so to use the 4th of July,

to use Independence Day as a political backdrop is kind of just ugly and crass. Yeah. And it's like not unexpected. Right. It's as crass as a golden toilet, right? It's about as classy as like bedazzling your junk. You know? It's like, all right, you fucking, you airbrushed your denim jacket. Classy is like bedazzling your junk. You know?

It's like, all right, you fucking airbrushed your denim jacket. This is not classy. You did not dress it up. Oh my God. I would so buy an airbrushed denim jacket. That sounds amazing. You got a unicorn on your band.

Oh God, if you had that wolf, that one wolf howling at the moon in the back of your jacket. The best is three wolves. Three wolves. Thank you. I'm not that cool. I'll leave that for the really, really, really cool people.

I'll just take a single wolf. Single wolf. I'm single wolf. That's it. A lone wolf, if you will. Yeah, but the military stuff too. Well, and you know, the one thing that I recognize too

about this president is that there's this weirdness that has happened because for his whole career up until now, he's been, he's sort of defined himself in certain ways, right? Mostly it's, I'm a very rich person. I can do what I want. I can fire you when I want. That's how he's sort of defined at least the last 15, 20 years before he became president. That was sort of his definition of what he was, right? I'm a billionaire. He's not really a billionaire, but he's, I'm a billionaire. I got a lot of money.

I own you. I fucking own you. I can fire you. I can, you know, I can make or break your life. Right. You know, I can take these losers that used to be celebrities and turn them into somebody worthwhile. You know what I mean?

I can raise somebody up who's never been any part of anything and turn them into a superstar sort of feel. Right. Right. It's like the American Idol of like business or something. The American Idol of raw celebrity. Yeah, exactly. You know.

And so, you know, there's this, you know, he sort of had a brand. But then the moment he took office and, you know, even before then, he has really embraced patriot, like the patriotism, quote unquote patriotism in the United States of America, sort of like the bullshit fucking proud to be an American, faux Americanism bullshit. The Lee Greenwood bald eagle shit. Yeah, the nationalist bullshit. Right.

He's embraced that, you know, both a big two-armed hug around that shit. Mostly he grabs it with his bone spurs and doesn't let go. And never lets go. It's very similar to Ted Nugent, right?

Another guy who dodged the draft, right? The story is he shit himself or whatever to be crazy so he didn't have to go to war. That's what Nugent did supposedly. May as well do it early. I mean, I just keep doing it from now until- Somebody shoots at me, it's the inevitable conclusion. I know, right?

I'd be like, ah! Okay, all right. Can I just throw this at him? Is this chemical warfare then? I don't know. Geneva Convention outlawed this shit. Literally this shit. But he's one of these guys who, you know, he's a faker.

You know, he's not military. He's not any of that stuff know, he's a faker. You know, he's not military. He's not any of that stuff. He's just a faker. And he's embraced this in such a way that it's, you know, it's kind of scary. But the reason why it's scary is because so many people buy it. Oh, I know. They just buy it and they eat it up and they love it.

Yeah. What strikes me about it is like crazy, like let's roll some tanks down the, you know, Washington. And we'll have these fighter jets fly over. We'll have this big parade of soldiers and stuff. It's like your military is not a sign of great strength, right? Your military is a sign. What does your military use for?

It means your diplomacy failed. Sure. Right? No, that's very true. Very true. Military is not strength. Yeah. Military action is inherently like, shit, we're out of other options. When I think of like big parades

full of like tanks and aircraft and soldiers and stuff, what I immediately picture in my mind are oppressive regimes that have failed. Yeah. It's like one of the things you tout out, right? When you're all out of ideas, you punch the other guy in the mouth. Right? And you do that because you're all out of ideas. Because you lost the bigger argument. Because you recognize that you're ultimately weaker. You've been backed into a corner and you've got to flex muscle.

It is concerning that we're at a place where America's like, yeah, let's flex our fucking our big beach muscles. And it's like, that's a sign of weakness. We're demonstrating to the world that we are weak. Because what we're saying is we rely on our military strength in order for us to have power. In the same way that like, if I got an argument with my wife, right? I'm twice her size. And I was just like, okay, you know what? I win

because I could beat you up. Right? Like that's not, I didn't win the argument. Sure. Even though the second half of that sentence is true. Yeah. Right? It's a stupid fucking thing to say and it means that you're weak and we look weak as a result of this parade.

With me. This is really hard to say Mom and dad, I am homosexual And I've known since I was three This may not be a surprise to you I mean, I've always loved Britney But I'm still the same

Son, I've always been Yes, I'm sure it's not a phase So there it is is my secret truth i'm super fucking gay okay so speaking of jingoistic hyper nationalism let's go to this next story from dead state christian pastor makes out with the flag during hour-long prayer rant. Holy shit. This dude is fucking amazing. Yeah. This dude is crazy.

So I'm going to play this clip. We're going to listen to part of it. Some of it is not going to be able to be, like, because the part where he makes out the flag at the end is just, it's quiet. So there's, I mean, it's just like, I'll just have to describe what's happening. But if you get a chance, this will be on this week's show notes.

You have to click down into the article and then click onto Twitter. Right wing watch has the, has the clip on there. Oh, the right wing watch just says happy 4th of July. I know. It's a great tweet. So snarky. It's a great tweet. So here it is. Here's, here's his, um, here's his speech beforehand. And Tom, I want to, I want to alert you to this speech really quick before we start. And I want you to answer this question. Answer this question honestly after we get done.

I'm looking forward to this right now. Do you think he knows where he's going when he starts this? And I just want you to hear it. Just think in your head. Does he know where he's going when he starts talking? So here we go.

What God says in the night sky It's thinking your head. Keep that in mind. Does he know where he's going when he starts talking? So here we go. God says in the night sky, as the fireworks begin to sound, and light fills your capital, this is not just what you see in the natural, but open your eyes, for in the spirit there has been. This guy, he is gesticulating with such fervor right now. You guys have no idea if you don't watch this. I've never loved this much.

He is just like, his eyes are closed and he is just in a... It is a moment of pure masturbatory vocal ecstasy right now. It's like you're a teenager and you're listening to your favorite song and lip syncing it in your room. You know, like that's, it's that cringy, right? It's that, it's like as cringy as you can be. And then your parent walks in, you're like, I'm in here, I'm in here.

I would rather have every parent, every parent in America walk in on me at the point of ejaculation than be this guy. It would be less humiliating. This guy is a rude orgasm. His life is a rude orgasm. I jerk off on TV.

Watching this is like ball torture, so I guess we're in the right ballpark. A myriad of angels that have been upon the very crevice of heaven waiting to- Crevice of heaven? The crevriad of angels that have been upon the very crevice of heaven waiting. Crevice of heaven? The crevice of heaven?

There's angels on my crevice? Yeah, sure there is. I wonder if the angels are like stuck in the couch like the remote control. They're in the crevice of heaven. There's like one leg sticking out. You pull out the Dyson and you're sucking up the peanuts. Oh, God damn it. Angels. Just get on the head of a pin're sucking up the peanuts. Oh, God damn it. Angels.

Get on the head of a pin, you stupid assholes. Can you clean the cherub filter out, please? Stuck again. The crevice. Why does that happen? Is the ass cracking? What in the idiots? Yeah, the swaths of heaven.

Just like, man, this angel stinks. Like a hot day. All right, you're not fooling around, but what's on your crevice? Angels? Just like, man, this angel stinks. Like a hot day. Oh, all right. You're not, you're not fooling around, but there's, what's on your crevice? Angels again. Where have you been, Harold? To move at my command. My chariot is riding now, says the Lord.

Waiting at my command to release a myriad of angels who have waited for this moment. What is he saying? Is a chariot waiting for the Lord like a valet angel just like tapping his watch like, okay, this magical chariot full of gods is not going to, okay, we'll wait forever. God walks up to the valet. Yeah, it's the chariot of angels. I don't have a key. It's literally aariot of Angels. I don't have a key. It's literally a Chariot of Angels.

I lost my ticket in that room. Fuck. I don't know. I'll fill out your form or whatever. We could do that. Do I know the license plate? Honey, do you know the license plate for the goddamn Chariot of Angels?

Tell me what he's saying doesn't sound like this. David, here it is. My philosophy is basically this, and this is something that I live by, and I always have, and I always will. Don't ever, for any reason, do anything to anyone for any reason ever,

no matter what, no matter where, no matter where or who or who you were with or where you were going or where you've been, ever, for any reason whatsoever. Sometimes I'll start a sentence and I don't even know where it's going. I just hope I find it along the way, like an improv conversation. for any reason whatsoever. Sometimes I'll start a sentence and I don't even know where it's going. I just hope I find it along the way. Like an improv conversation. Tell me that's not what this guy sounds like.

He sounds like he's making it up as he's going along. He 100% is. I mean, he does not sound like he wrote anything down at a time. No, he's not sure what his point is. He's just talking about whatever. Yeah, I know. Whatever sounds crazy for him. And the thing is, I would say that this would be cringy

and this would be embarrassing, but these are the same people who speak in tongues and are like, and you're like, no, okay, there's no way this could be cringy. This is like an IMAX movie

compared to fucking. Can you imagine being one of the band members? Like, oh my God, this is worse than that time I played for that spoken word poet. You fucking kidding me? Finish! Spoken word poet.

At least gave me fries. He bought me fries afterwards. Are we all going to snap our fucking fingers when we're done? Jesus Christ. To bring, for now the time is, to bring the greatest move that this nation has seen in its history, says the Lord God of hosts.

I have no idea. Okay, so he's got a flag on a pole and he's hugging it and he's got his face buried in it. And the weird thing is, is like, I don't think he knows this, but didn't the Westboro Baptist Church say God hates flags? I thought, I thought that they were against this sort of thing a long time ago,

but they're going to sing glory, glory, hallelujah. Yeah, they're singing. Oh my God, how embarrassing. Oh, he's still got it around. Guys, I'm not kidding. He's still hugging it. He's still hugging, and he's got his face buried in it.

And the best he can get right now is half-mask. That's the best that he can do. You would think hugging that pole is what he's always dreamed of. He's got his face buried in that pole. Honey, it's flag day! Tragically, though, the volumes of invaluable knowledge gathered over centuries are now threatened by an epidemic of dumb f***ing idiots saying dumb f***. You know what this is?

It's a snowball. So it's very, very cold out. Dumb f*** is highly contagious, infecting the minds of even the most stable geniuses. If you have a windmill anywhere near your house, they say the noise causes cancer. You tell me that one, okay? Wow. Man, we were having such fun, Cecil. We were having such fun. We're having a good time, Tom. Here we go. New York Times. State Department intelligence analyst quits to protest blocked House testimony. So an intelligence analyst with the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research, he testified. And he testified on climate change.

And his testimony did not match the policies of the White House. Yeah, the position. And so the position and policy of the White House is now, well, great story. Thanks for telling us. Nobody write that down or enter that into the historical public record.

That's now oral only. It's not going to be written down. It's not going to be entered into the record because even though the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research is one of the most,

like, they're seen to be like one of the most honest and one of the most integrity filled and like least partisan groups within the intelligence community, which is by and large less partisan than others. But even within that rather vaulted or vaunted category, They're like, yeah, but it doesn't match what we want to have be true. So we just are going to excise that truth from the record. Yeah. And this is an administration that accuses everyone else of distorting the truth, right? That's their entirety of their party line at this point

is everyone distorts the truth. Everybody is distorting the truth, but us, right? You can get the real scoop from us, but don't listen to the fake news. Don't listen to these other pundits. Don't listen to anybody else. Don't listen to,

they've even gone out and said, there's no such thing as facts. They've gone out. No, what's happening? They've gone out and said, I'll call things alternative facts, which is not a real thing, right? Yeah. And so they've gone out and said, I'll call things alternative facts, which is not a real thing, right? And so they've gone out of their way to discredit everyone else that has anything negative to say.

And in this case, this is one of their own people. And they're saying, yeah, we're going to just basically take that. We're not going to let you say these things. We're going to undo it. What's fucking unsettling about this is they don't refute it. They simply just undo it. Yeah, just delete it.

Just, that's it. Like, we're just going to eliminate this truth about how the world is working now. Yeah. We've talked about this on the show before. We aren't going to fix this if we don't acknowledge it. Sure.

Yeah. How the fuck do you do that? Yeah. Hey, we're going to, what's the solution to the problem? We refuse the problem. I reject the premise. They don't think there's a problem. Yeah. How the fuck do you do that? Yeah. Hey, we're going to, what's the solution to the problem? We refuse the problem. I reject the premise. They don't think there's a problem.

Yeah. They reject the premise. I really, I'm going to like, what's the solution to that? Yeah. Solution to that is like, I don't know,

stock up on some baker buckets, man, because shit's going to get real. I read an article today that, or not an article, but a headline for an article that, that it was, it was a tweet that was retweeting.

It was really funny. The tweet had said, you know, the article that the tweet had tweeted out was something about climate change is going to change how we, how we look at water and businesses look to capitalize, is what it said. And then it basically made a joke about capitalism being like, hey, the world's burning, but hey, kind of, why can't we make a fucking profit off of this? You know, basically, right? Is there any way that hey, can we make a fucking profit off of this? You know, basically, right? Is there any way that we can somehow make money off of this? And there's, you know,

the thing is, is like, they don't even think there's a problem. They don't even see it as a problem. They don't care that there's a problem. They're too focused on the quarter. They're not focused on the long haul. And so they don't see this as a problem. I am very, very interested to see

how this plays out in the next election and in the debates. I'm interested to see what people say because they are so inundated on the right right now with this is bullshit, that climate change is bullshit. That is the main comment on the right is that it's bullshit. But if you look around and you see the trends that are happening, 90 degrees in Anchorage, and they were saying it's the hottest it's ever been up there. You know what I mean? Like there's all these little, there's all these places and it's not, and this isn't weather. This isn't just a moment in time. These are trends, the hottest trend, the hot, that's climate, right? The trends are climate, not just the day, not just a snow

storm, not just a heat wave. We're talking trends over years worth of time where they're saying these are the, the last, you know, 15 years, 12 of them have been now hottest on record or something like, you know, I'm not, I'm making that up, but I, but I'm not, I'm not off far off. I don't know exactly what the, but I've read things like that, right? Even if it's like eight of them, right? Eight of them still really bad on a 15, right? That's still a lot, right? So when you say that they're the eight hottest on record, or there's, you know, like they're having, you know, consecutive hottest ever record summers in different places. You're seeing these effects all the time. They're happening all the time.

There's no way you can look at these and say, it's not real. But we live in a world now where that sort of thing doesn't really matter. And there's a whole group of people that will 100% believe someone if they say the sky is not blue. They will just believe it. They will just believe it now. And we're getting, when we started this podcast years ago, we were joking about how we're going to run out of things to talk about. I know. There's going to be, America's getting more skeptical. America's getting more rational. America's getting more progressive.

We're not going to have anything to talk about. I remember having this conversation. Oh, yeah. Like when we're done talking and when everything, you know, nothing's ever going to be fixed, but there's going to be a point where it's going to be hard to find stories and we're going to quit.

It has been the exact opposite since we started. It's gotten crazier. It's been scarier because we've thrown rationality out the window. We've thrown skepticism out the window. We've leaped directly into denialism when it comes to climate change. It's scary. It's genuinely scary. Yeah, this is honestly dark ages thinking.

Yes. It is indistinguishable from the same kinds of preconceptions that fuel dark ages thinking. I have my conclusion. Yeah. And I'm unwilling to consider evidence that does not back up that. of preconceptions that fuel dark ages thinking. I have my conclusion. Yeah. And I'm unwilling to consider evidence that does not back up that. This is exactly what's happened here. The conclusion of the White House administration

is climate change is nothing to worry about. Yeah. Evidence that does not match that foregone conclusion is at best no longer considered evidential. Yeah. That's fucking insane. This it's, we're running backwards.

The clock is running backwards. 2020 is real important people. It really is. You fucking people better vote. It can't, it can't be any, I mean, it's certainly not less important than the previous election,

but it's, it's one of those things that, you know, they're showing more and more that the people who stayed home are the ones that really changed the election last time. It was the people who did not vote, who did not get out to vote. Even though the numbers were pretty large,

the numbers for voting were actually pretty large last time. It was not a super significant drop-off, but you can't expect that he's not going to get the same number of votes again. You can't expect that. These people have bought in. It's not like, you know, yeah, you're hearing the one or two outliers once in a while that are like, Jesus Christ, what the fuck was happening with me? You know, but I mean, I heard a podcast this week where they're talking about,

specifically talking about GM closing an Ohio plant. I heard the same one. And the guy, they interview this guy and they're talking to him and they say, and he said, yeah, I voted for Trump because I just wanted a change. And he talks about the reasons why he voted for Trump. And the reasons why he voted for Trump were, you know, he had said that he was going to do this stuff and keep these jobs here.

And then the moment he takes office, like within a couple of days, they closed down the plant and then they really revamp everything. And then they're like, yeah, you got to move to Missouri or you just lose your job. And when they asked him like, well, do you blame him for that? No, it's not his fault. I understand that the Democrats fucking left a lot of those union people out to dry. I get that. Right. A lot of those union people got fucked by the Democrats,

but, and the Democrats need to make some big changes, I think, to, to win some of those union people back to make sure that they understand that. And I think there are a few candidates now that are very pro-union that are very, um, that have that in their sights. Pro-worker. Yeah, that are pro-worker, pro-union, pro-little guy. There's a lot of pro-little guys that are starting to come out, which is really refreshing. Not pro-corporation, which is where we need to not be. But yeah, I think they need to do a lot. But at the same time, when you hear that guy talk, you're just like, how the fuck do you not blame him? And he's probably going to vote for him again.

Well, what's amazing is that same guy, he voted for somebody to do something he didn't do. And he's like, it's not his fault he didn't do it. I guarantee if he had kept his job and kept the plant open, he would have been like, yeah, Trump saved my job. It's just, you just wanted the thing. You're counting the hits and forgetting the misses. Just say I wanted that thing. I wanted it. And and forgetting the message. Just say, I wanted that thing.

Yeah. I wanted it. And the reasons aren't rational. Get the fuck out of here. I listened to that story. I almost fucking strangled my fucking phone. Yeah. I think that I would say that your message is excluding people.

You're excluding me. You're excluding people that look like me. You're excluding people of color. You need to do better for everyone. This is nuts. Deadstate.org. Sebastian Gorka says, U.S. women's soccer team wants to destroy our Judeo-Christian

civilization. And also France. Boom! I will say, I don't watch soccer. I don't watch it ever. But if there's ever a hometown team watch it ever. But if there's ever like a, if there's ever a hometown team in a finals

or if there's ever a, you know, a US team doing something that's a finals, I'll almost always certainly watch it. Even if I don't watch the sport, I will set aside time

to watch it. And I did. I watched this finals. I had a lot of fun. I actually had a lot of fun. It was, I don't know anything about soccer. So I don't know, right?

I don't know if it was a good game or not. But it was, it was, it was exciting to watch and it was fun. I actually had a lot of fun. It was, I don't know anything about soccer, so I don't know, right? I don't know if it was a good game or not, but it was, it was, it was exciting to watch and it was fun. And my wife and I enjoyed it. Right. So like we were laughing and like when they would get like the ball and they'd start running the goal and be like, Oh, I'm going to get a goal. And they get like, Oh, we had fun. Like we just had fun. So I don't like, but I don't know if it was a good game or a bad game. Cause I can't answer that question. Yeah. But I had fun watching it. So I can, I can tell you that. Yeah.

But, but the U S team has been under some severe scrutiny. One of the things that happened was Megan Rapinoe, the lady who's sort of, she's one of the, one of the strikers for the team. One of the people who scores a lot of goals, right.

She won what they called the golden boot. I think she won all the, she scored the most in the tournament. Right. So she's a really high level score. So she gets to go to like Willy Wonka's Nike factory. She does. She gets a golden boot. She gets to pick out her Nikes and she gets to turn into a big blueberry and float in the air. But she, she's one of these people who's pretty outspoken. And they had asked her ahead of time. They had said they were interviewing in a locker, in a locker room. And they said, you said, will you go to the White House if you win? And she said, fuck, I ain't going to the fucking

White House. She said those words. I ain't going to the fucking White House. And what was hilarious was I saw a tweet after that where somebody took that clip and it was a right-wing person said, how disgraceful the US team, someone on the US team would say something like that. And someone had retweeted after the bottom and said, what? I thought I was in the locker room. I thought that was allowed to talk like that in a locker room. Because locker room talk, right? But she said, I ain't going to give a fucking go. And then Trump basically goes after her and says, Megan should win first before she starts talking. But he also said in that tweet, he said, I'm inviting them whether they win or lose. I'm inviting them whether they win or lose. I'm inviting them right now. He says it in the tweet. Right now, I'm inviting them whether they win or lose. I'm inviting them whether they win or lose.

I'm inviting them right now. He says it in the tweet. Right now, I'm inviting them whether they win or lose. And then they win. And everybody had this weird moment, you know, like there's the meme of the guy who's sweating and there's the two buttons. And it's all these right wingers who are root for the US, root against Megan Rapinoe. Right.

Like those are the two buttons and they don't know which to do, right? They're stuck. They are on fucking, they're like, does not compute fucking danger Will Robinson. I bet they'd rather see the team lose, particularly because it's a woman's team. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. She'll get her comeuppance for being a fucking

uppity woman. Uppity bitch. Right. And she doesn't, because they're really good, evidently. They've won, this is like a dynasty for them. They've done it a couple times. They're very good. They beat that shit out of the English team, Andy Wilson.

Fuck them up. Holy shit. I didn't even watch that game because it was so boring. I knew they were going to win. Andy Wilson, Michael Marshall. I knew that they were going to win.

Michael Marshall, after that was over, had a tweet or a Facebook message because Noah had posted, ha, ha, ha, we beat the shit tweet or a Facebook message because Noah had posted, we beat the shit out of you guys. And he had posted, it was so funny,

Marsh said, yeah, you know, I guess our guys just couldn't concentrate. We just don't have concentration camps on our border to help them concentrate. And I was like, touche, sir. But in any case, he said that. He said, I'm going to invite him to the White House.

And then they won. And then they interview him the next day. They interview Trump the next day. Like, you're going to invite him to the White House? And he's like,

oh, we're going to talk about it. And it's like, no, you already tweeted it. Like, it's already policy. You already said

you're going to do it. Well, it's almost like he doesn't do what he says he's going to do every time. Right.

Or changes his mind capriciously on whatever whim strikes him at 4 a.m. in his bathrobe. What the fuck? Exactly. So this guy is now talking about this big scandal. Because this lady did a couple of things that really pissed people off.

And saying that she didn't want to go to the White House really pissed people off. Being a woman really pissed people off. Yeah, she should have stopped doing that. She should have quit being a woman. Right. And in this- Jesus, grow a pair.

In this particular- If she did, she'd get paid more. Well, that's the other thing that she did. They're advocating for- Equal pay. Equal pay. Equal pay with the men. The women's team doesn't get paid as well.

And I saw a funny comment afterwards. They're saying, so from now on, it's soccer and men's soccer, right? Because they've won so many times. No, that's good. They're like, now it's men's soccer is the sub sport.

And it's like, wow, I never thought about it like that, man. I never thought about it. It's funny because I think one of the few sports franchises that really does treat women, I think, pretty fairly is the UFC because they have a women's division and a men's division, but they don't differentiate. A woman can be at headlining fight for a main event for a card. And that happens all the time. It happens, I would say,

one out of three times, there's a woman as the main card or co-main event. And so the women are part of that sport. But in everything else, it's always, it's women's NBA. It's the NBA and women's NBA. It's funny how the language tells us what we value. Like paying attention to the assumptions in our language, they tell us everything we need to know about our value. Yeah. But in this case, I guess someone had photographed her. She had a couple of drinks in the bar. Maybe she didn't. I don't even know. But she was out celebrating their win in New York.

And she had a comment about like, lock up your kids. Lock up your wives. I got the keys. I'm coming for you. It's, I mean, I can't, I don't know how this could possibly be threatening, but Sebastian Gorka shits his pants in this clip. This is amazing. And this is how she behaves at the parade to celebrate our, not her, our nation's victory.

Wait, your victory? What the fuck did you do? Play right wing? Is that what you did? What the fuck did you do? He does play right wing. He does. He's currently doing it right now.

But yeah, like what the fuck did you do? Like I get, I understand like, yeah, we, you know, we, maybe we funded them. Like, so that's how we can consider it our victory, but they were the ones out there doing it. And we only funded them as like less than what we pay the men. So we didn't actually fund them as well as we do the men. I'm sure that there's plenty of like, they get plenty of money from advertisers and selling the game. Like, oh, I'm sure that there's plenty of like, they get plenty of money from advertisers and selling the game. Like, I'm sure this self-support's better than the post office, you know?

I hope she fucking rakes it in because of this. I'm sure she will. I hope she rakes it in. And I love her stance after she gets a goal, like that arms wide open. You've seen her. No. Oh, okay.

Let me call a picture of it. I'm sorry. And it's one of those things that when people see it, they don't like it. It feels cocky to them. But after she scores a goal, she walks over to the sideline

and she does that. She looks at the crowd. She holds her hands up like this and is like, what? I think it's great. People don't like it because there's a difference. Men celebrate all the time. Absolutely.

Absolutely. Right. Yeah. It's not demure. Yeah. Right. That's the problem. Right.

That's the problem. It's boastful. And like, she's boastful and she's like proud and like partying hard and like trash talking. All of these things are things we expect from men that play sports all the time. It's not just like accepted. It's expected. It's part of like building your brand,

building the character of this person that you are to sell the celebrity of players. Yeah. She's doing the same shit. There's a guy in the NFL, one of my favorite touchdown celebrations ever in the history of the game. He scores a touchdown, runs over to where he has hidden a Sharpie. I remember this!

In the fucking pad for the fucking, the field goal, grabs the Sharpie, signs the ball and runs over and hands it to somebody. I was like, that is the greatest touchdown end zone celebration I've ever seen. It was fine for it.

They got a 15-yard penalty because of it. You know, like they got penalized. But it fucking ain't. It's amazing. It is such a dick out moment. It is. It is such a dick out moment. And the thing is, is like people are upset because they're having dick out moments.

Right. Right? And you're like, no, you can't do that. You can't do that. One of the girls scored a goal against England. She ran over to the sideline and pretended like she was drinking tea. It was amazing. It was amazing. It's a little trash talk. It's part of what makes games fun. Exactly. It is. It is. You're absolutely right. Like it's a, it's a little dance, a little celebrate. These are, these are minor by comparison to some of them. And it makes, it makes it what,

what everybody doesn't understand is it's great marketing for the game, right? It makes you dislike the other team. It makes you want to root for, you know, maybe you do want to root against Megan Rapinoe and the rest of her team. Maybe when you see that, you're like, fuck you. You shouldn't be fucking trash talking. Fuck you. I hope you lose. But regardless, it brings you into the game. It's good marketing for the game. Don't get rid of that. It's like the one thing that makes it interesting. That's why I like this. So if you've seen, it's like why UFC has a whole like, all right, let's like build up some fake animosity.

Yeah, let's face off. Dude, they do a photo op where they fucking hold each other's fist to each other's face. And then they talk and then they have a press conference where like they have to basically say, I don't like the other guy. I'm going to punch him until his Be like, I'm going to punch him until his baby dies.

I'm going to punch his baby first. And then, yeah, like all this crazy shit. Yeah. Yeah. It's all just, like you said,

it's to build up like, my guy, your guy, my guy, your guy. That's what makes sports fun though. Right. Because otherwise,

there's nothing to root for. Yeah. Well, if you're just watching the game, then all you're doing is watching someone who is very good at something, do something. Right. Yeah. And if that's the case watching the game, then all you're doing is watching someone who is very good at something do something, right?

Yeah. And if that's the case, I'm going to watch Pornhub. So, you know, I don't just need to see that. I was going to say two computers playing chess, but you took it a little weird.

All right. And if you'd like to see two computers playing chess. All right, here we go. Hide your kids. Hide your wife. And lock your f***ing doors because we got the key I think it's great. I love it.

I love it. I love it. I got the keys to the city and I'm coming for all your bitches. I love it. I love it too. I'll let him get into it and we'll stop it. I love it. I love it too. No, no, like,

I'll let him get into it and we'll stop it. But like, what I love is that this scared him. Yeah. This is threatening to him. They're coming for my bitches. Yeah.

Those are my bitches. This is threatening to him. It's like, like I would be afraid if it was Jeffrey Epstein talking this. Right. I would be terrified,

but I wouldn't be afraid. I'm not afraid because it's like, like it's not threatening. Like it's genuinely not threatening. Right. It's just afraid. I'm not afraid because it's like, like it's not threatening. Like it's genuinely not threatening, right? It's just fun. I'm going to fucking tear it up.

Yes, it's boastful bullshit. It's not anything. It's not, I don't know. It's not a, I can see when it happens when someone's calling something to action,

but she's not saying, hey, everybody, let's ruin the town or something, right? She's just saying, I'm just going to get a little crazy tonight. Yeah. But he doesn't understand that. He doesn't not saying, hey, everybody, let's ruin the town or something, right? She's just saying, I'm just going to get a little crazy tonight. But he doesn't understand that. He doesn't get it, right? Because he's never once

ever not taken off his undershirt. You know what I mean? Like in his entire life, this man, his wife has never seen his bare chest. I don't care. It's never happened. This has never happened. Lucky her. Lucky her. Darling, I will be transporting

myself with my robe to the bathroom to change into my three-piece suit before we have intercourse. This is a man who showers with the lights on. You know, he just does the whole thing by feel. God.

So let me help you hear that a little bit more clearly. I got the keys. Hide your kids. Hide your wives. Because I'm coming to your house. I love how he says it. All creepy and smarmy. Here's the thing.

If you said that, I'm afraid. Yeah, I know. I'm like, okay, I have a pistol. I'll be waiting for you. God, he does sound, he does absolutely. Doesn't he sound scary? Like. He sounds, like he sounds scary.

She sounds, she sounds like I had a beer and I'm laughing and I'm having fun with my friends and I'm going to make a joke that's going to make my friend over here laugh. Yeah, right. That's what she sounds like. He sounds like, I don't know, like a call you'd get on Silence of the Lambs. I'm just saying like,

that call came from inside the house. For sure. Certainly didn't come from inside his wife. That's for sure. Nothing's come inside his wife. And I'm coming for you, beeps. I'm coming for your beeps.

She also said she had the keys to the city. She did. Don't leave out that. It's fucking a baller line. The mother beeping keys to the city. Yeah. What do you think? Coming for your children?

I'm coming for your children? She's not really coming for anyone's children. Jesus Christ. If your fucking underwear could be any tighter right now. Like it's like someone has taken like a doll rod and just twisted his underwear up and like he's like one of those crank

toys. You know like when you're a kid you had like the windy toy with the key in the back and it like would move its arms. That's what he is. Except for somebody did that to his underwear. Oh God. Like he can't. That's what he is. Except for somebody did that to his underwear. Like he can't, he's just like, like,

Jesus, you uptight fucking twat. Calm down, bro. This is like, this is like the same thing as like fathers hide your daughters. Everybody's somebody's kid. I know,

right? Everybody is somebody's kid. She's not going out and lesbian raping people. Nobody thinks she's doing this. Is this person clinically disturbed? What kind of... Is she colloquially disturbed? Not actually from a...

Figuratively disturbed? I don't know. Did she go to a clinic in Disturbia? No, that's stupid. It's not actually something you can be as clinically disturbed. I think that's a Holly Berry movie. It is. Is it?

Okay. A, if that's what you think or feel, that's bad enough. And you should be investigated. You should be examined. You should be interviewed. If you think and feel it, if you think and feel it, you should be investigated.

You should be investigated. How would people know if you think about what you think? They're called thought crimes. Okay. Oh, all right. That's where we live now. Cool.

Not just by police officers, but by mental health professionals. I'm coming by mental health professionals i'm coming for your children but she doesn't just think it she says it on camera well that's how we know right because the thinking part we didn't know ahead of time. What does that mean about the people on the U.S. women's soccer team? It means we don't pay them as much as men. It means they're good at soccer and boastful when they win, like lots of people that are excited about doing a good job at their sporting thing. How many people trash talk after sports? We have tape of President Trump saying, grab women by the pussy. We have tape of that. We have tape of President Trump saying, grab women by the pussy.

Yeah. Right? We have tape of that, right? We have tape of him saying it. Saying that he did do it. Saying that, yeah. He's like, I can do this. I can do this.

They let you do it. When you're famous, they let you do it. Right? He's saying that he can do it. Whenever he wants, he can do it. He'd done it in the past and can do it in the future. Right?

Perfectly. And it's not him. It's not a, he didn't say it after he won a world cup or a fucking Stanley cup, which you should wear around the president, by the way. Yeah. Athletic supporter,

at least Trump's not an athletic supporter. Cause he doesn't like this. But, but you know, like the thing is, is like, like president Trump has said, we're shit.

Right. She's like, hide your kids. She doesn't say, you know, what is she going to do? Maybe give him a hug. You don't, right? She's like, hide your kids. She doesn't say, you know, what is she going to do? Maybe give them a hug. You don't know, right?

How do you know? Hide your kids. Hide your wife. She just said, hide them. Hide them from what? Why? She didn't really explain.

Trump lays out exactly what he's going to do. I'm going to put a finger in it is what he said. I'm going to put a finger up her. I'm like, girls, let me fist them. Like, it's just like,

like the Trump tells you what he's going to do and you let me fist him. Like, it's just like, like, the Trump tells you what he's going to do and you don't even care. Oh, it's just bullshit. It's locker room talk. It doesn't matter. That shit just rolls right off. Right.

This girl says something that you then interpret as super threatening because you're terrified of women and now she needs to be investigated mentally by health professionals. Right. I don't get that at all.

Like, how do you just wash one. I don't get that at all. Like, how do you just wash one? I don't understand how they live in this world. I could be mistaken about this, but I don't think you can just like, be like, call the health professionals to investigate somebody. Like, that's not even a thing we have. Like, if you're like mentally ill,

it's hard enough to get care that you seek. People don't seek you out. Yeah, you can't just walk in and be like, Oh my God, you know what? Cecil, you've been acting weird. I'm going to have the men in the big white coats come take you away. That's a Dr. Demento song.

That's not the truth. Exactly. Yeah, that's why we're here, friends. That's why I want to enlist you to be part of the solution. The last one we'll need. That's it. By my accents, you understand it's final, correct?

They've gone insane and they want to destroy everything that is wholesome in our country and in our Judeo-Christian civilization. Oh my God, because a woman was excited because she trash talked a little because she had a little locker room jawing. She's just jawing,

man. She didn't say grab him by the dick, right? She didn't say that. Well, people would be like, oh, hey, I got a dick. If you're going to grab, just hang on for a bit. Doesn't this feel like a way to somehow invalidate the win, right?

You know what I mean? There's the idea that they won, but they didn't do it right. You know, they didn't do it right. Well, they didn't because they weren't dudes when they did it. And they weren't deferential, right? There's two big things.

Right. I'm here to date your six-year-old. Step one, admit it. Get me ready. The sleeping giant needs to awaken. Now is the time. I'm a pedophile. So the story comes from Right Wing Watch.

This is fucking nuts. Chris McDonald, floods, earthquakes, and the Epstein arrest were caused by Trump's July 4th speech. Can we stop for a second before we start and talk about Epstein? Just for a few seconds. Oh, I thought we were going to talk about Chris McDonald's shirt, but we can talk about Epstein.

Can we talk about his shirt first? We can. It's the stars and stripes sometimes. Not forever. Because he's very limited. He looks like Where's Waldo got old as fuck. He does. Like somebody took a long time to find him. And like they found him and he had cancer.

Like, where's Kimo? You were in this cancer ward. Weird. Oh, he's wearing. He looks, yeah.

Horizontal striped. A white and red horizontal striped polo shirt. It's so hilarious looking. It looks so stupid. It's so ridiculous. But he's doing his, he's talking about the 4th of July speech,

but they're also going to talk about Epstein. And so we want to talk about Epstein, though, for a few minutes because I definitely want to talk about what happened there. So a while back, Epstein was brought up on charges. 2008.

It was a long time ago. 2006 was when up on charges. 2008. It was a long time ago. 2006 was when they busted him. 2008 was when he finally was sentenced. But he was sentenced in, so they initially had a plan and they had like 40 people that were underage that he had like somehow had some sort of sexual congress. We're not sure exactly how deep it went, right?

And a lot of times it was, a lot of times it was not. I'm going to guess about two and a half inches. Well, from what I hear, he's got a small dick. Genuinely, like what they're saying is a small dick. So like, that's one of the things like they're saying that came out afterwards. I guess money can't buy everything. But from what, well, so, so he,

you know, in various different things, like would either just masturbate in front of young girls, grab young girls, insert pieces. He had them give him

naked massages and shit. naked massages. Sometimes they're all sex, sometimes sex, sometimes, you know, like, so he was,

he was soliciting young girls, which is child rape. Okay, let me just say that right now. That's child rape. Right. That's not, that's not,

the young girl part is that these girls were between 12 and 16 mostly. And the United States, the shortest, the least legal age is 16. That's the, that's the- The earliest. The earliest you can have sex. You can have it sooner if there's, you know,

like in some states, if there's two people that are, you know, the same age or similar age, but not, you can't be like, I'm a 50-year-old banging an 11-year-old. You can't do that, right? And so, which is mostly what this guy was doing. I mean, he wasn't, he was going after a very specific age range of girl

and he was sexually assaulting these girls. He was either raping them or, you know, horribly forcing them into sexual, some sort of sexual act. So don't, I don't want to coat this as being like, oh, because the charge

that they brought him up on eventually is child prostitution. Prostitution. Not child prostitution. Soliciting prostitution. Soliciting prostitution. Presuming, one,

that the person can even say yes to sex, right? Which is, it's a child. You can't do that. That's rape. And, you know, two, it's like, you know, this guy is paying them,

but it's not paying them in the sense like these are people who are being coaxed into an act. They're being, yeah. Yeah, and then giving money to absolve himself morally in his own mind. But it is, that charge is so disgusting to label victims of sexual assault prostitutes, to label children prostitutes. That's a horror. And how it happened, how it came about was the state

had this really great case. The state had this awesome, really great case, but they were afraid that Epstein, a very rich man with very powerful friends, was going to walk free. He was going to get away with something like this. And so they called in the United States attorney. And the attorney at the time was Acosta, who is currently our labor secretary in Trump's cabinet. And he is, he was, he brokered this deal with Epstein where Epstein pled guilty to this charge, had to register as a sex offender only in Florida or New York, I think like only two places, and then could go to prison and was going to go to prison for like 18 months

or something like that, but could leave during the day six days a week and just go somewhere else for the entire day and then just come back for the evening. He had to play sleepover camp

in jail. And the sentence was ridiculous. It was 13 months was the sentence. It was a tiny amount of time. 13 months. Yeah. And he gets to, he's serving a seventh of it.

Yeah. And so he does this, he gets, but this is, he gets out and throws a party. Yeah. It's been in the news forever. And the Miami Herald did a huge deep dive on this.

The Miami Herald just went after him. And there's really good reporting by the Miami Herald on this, on this. The Miami Herald just went after him. And there's really good reporting by the Miami Herald on this particular thing. And they uncovered tons of documents. They uncovered documents that showed that Acosta was chummy with their lawyers, or at least the legal team that Acosta was running was chummy with their lawyers. And sort of like in a way that just does not feel right. And so the thing is, is that another victim has recently come out in New York and this is how this case is going to be retried is because it was tried in Florida, but now it's going to be going to New York and they're starting to uncover a ton of other stuff and starting to

build a real serious case against him. And the one thing I've been seeing, the one thing that I've been noticing is that there's been a ton of people on the right who've been seeing, the one thing that I've been noticing is that there's been a ton of people on the right who've been saying, yeah, well, they're going to snatch up Bill Clinton. They're going to say, good, good. If Bill Clinton did anything horrible like this, if he was part of this in any way, because this guy really just, you know, a lot of people around him were around him when he was doing this. And there might be some things that get uncovered where people that were around him were doing horrible shit this. And there might be some things that get uncovered where people that were around him were doing horrible shit too to these very young kids.

You know, these are children. These are raping children. That's why I'm not going to coach. If they were raping children too, good, put them away. I don't understand the concept of just being like, you know, Republicans, if it's a Democrat, are like, yeah, put the guy away. And all the Democrats are like, yeah, put the guy away.

And the moment the Republicans are like, well, your guy did it. Your guy did it. Your guy did it. I don't fucking care. Who does it? Can we just all say together, if you rape a child, we put you in jail? Can we all just say that together? Period.

I don't care that he has a fucking registered Republican card in his fucking wallet. Get rid of him. He raped a kid. Well, how does he vote? We don't even get to what's important. We need all the votes we get. Well, how did the kid vote? Oh, he never voted.

If Bill Clinton, Bill Clinton is fucking guilty of something like this, put him away. Yeah. Good. I don't fucking care. I don't have any fucking like,

fuck if Bernie Sanders is part of this. He'd never be, but I'm just saying like, you know, three or four of the fucking, the people that are currently on the stage, on the,

if Biden and all these are like, did you start naming all the dudes up there? Because it's not going to be the women, but you named the dudes up there. Right. And you say all these guys are guilty of child rape. Get rid of them, man. Get rid of them. We can't, we can't do a thing where we like,

protect our heroes from shit that makes them no longer heroic. Right? I don't understand that. And I know that's only part of it. Like part of it is just playing games. My side has to win and I'll, I'll utilitarianly decide what's an acceptable, but another part of it is like, there's a protectionism around the people that we sort of idolize. And it's like, but if your person is a monster, stop idolizing. Right. I've never understood that. It's like, well, but you know, they're such a good guy. No, they were until you found out this new information

that makes them horrible. And now what you say is like, fuck, I was wrong. I have to recast who they are in my mind. They're horrible. There's no other thing to do. Like, I don't care like how much you love somebody. If you find out that they rape children, then like, you should be like, yeah, I don't love you anymore, how much you love somebody. If you find out that they rape children, then, like, you should be like,

yeah, I don't love you anymore. That's it. Yeah. We're done. You're the worst. You know, it's like Bill Cosby. When I was growing up, I loved Bill Cosby's comedy. I loved it.

When I was a little kid. Me too. The chocolate cake bit. I mean, laughed. We thought it was the best. I remember my whole family watching that thing. Yep. And laughing and thinking it was just amazing.

And he was so funny and so clever. He was on a ton of TV shows with kids. Kids say the darndest things and he'd make that face, that weird ass face he'd make. And he was a funny guy. I can't laugh at anything Bill Cosby's ever done again. Because the moment I see him on stage, I think, dude, you fucking drugged women and fucking raped them. You're horrible.

I don't like you. I don't like anything you did. You know, the Cosby show could be fucking the funniest fucking thing in the world. I'll never watch a minute of it again. And the same thing goes for this. Bill Clinton, the entirety of your presidency, fuck you if you're part, I'm not saying he's part of this, right? I know that everybody that's, that's who they're focusing on because he was flying in that guy's private jet. So like, yes, there's, you know, there's things that link him. There's a connection.

And if there is evidence that shows it, fucking get rid of him. I don't understand this at all. But for some reason, these people are talking, and there's a couple of things that are coming out now. There's a ton of stuff that's coming out that's linking him to Trump. That's one of the things.

And I think they're trying to head it off of the past. They're trying to throw, you know, like sort of deflect some of that damage onto other people to say, well, he did it too. Cause it's the, what about is I'm fucking presidency. So it's all the,

what about is him shit that keep on trying to deflect it on other people. And that's one thing that's coming out. And then all the Q people are going crazy now. Oh, I know. Cause it's like, that's the beginning of the mass arrests and all that. This is the big thing.

It was like, well, dumb ass. You didn't realize he got fucking arrested fucking eight years ago. Right? Like this happened eight years ago. You didn't realize that shit. And then, you know, the fucking very idea that, you know, you could somehow think that there's going to be mass arrests and there's going to be a child pedophile ring and you put no time limit on it whatsoever.

There's no time limit. There's no specificity. We're just like, yeah, there's going to be something that happens. And so the moment some kind of, you know, rape happens, you know, whether it's publicized, they're like, oh, it's a child pedophile ring. And so the moment some kind of, you know, rape happens, you know, whether it's publicized, they're like, oh, it's a child pedophile ring. And you're like, yeah,

but it's not what you said it was. And, you know, you currently could at least point to the fucking Catholic church. Cause that's been going on the whole time that we've been uncovering this. No, you've had your out the whole time and they haven't even taken it. It doesn't meet any of the standards for the imaginary world.

They set up. No, none whatsoever. First of all, it's, we don't know that it's a ring. So far, it's this guy. Yeah, it's this guy.

That's what we know so far. We know that he had help because he did have people that were also grooming for him and people that he abused also helped groom for him. Okay, I didn't know that. Yeah, so people that he abused, he would abuse these girls. And then he would say, go get your friends and tell them to come over. And so then they would recruit their friends. I got you.

And then there was also a couple of, supposedly there's like four names, four women that helped him find these other women. Other girls. Other girls. And supposedly he's supposed to be buying someone. I heard from one article that he was going to be buying a woman from Thailand. What? He's just going to buy a girl from Thailand.

And one of the- What is happening? Right. And then what happened was he sent, so he had been raping this girl, raping this child. She was a child. She eventually got too old for him.

And she became the girl who was recruiting other girls for him. And then he paid her to go to Thailand to pick this other young girl up. And she left with her boyfriend to go over there and then they split. They didn't do it. They went to Australia.

They fled to Australia. But then later, they have stuff like forms and shit, not forms, but shit that he signed and whatever and communications with him basically telling them to do this shit. Holy shit.

And the best they got out of this was a fucking deal like this. And there's tons of witnesses. I didn't know this. There's tons of people. It's a deep, shitty case. And then Acosta just basically fucking rolling over and letting this happen.

That shit's insane. It's insane. That shit's insane. It's insane. And he defended himself by saying, look, I thought we were going to lose. This was the best deal we were going to get. It's like... When you see some of the evidence that was mounting against look, I thought we were going to lose. This was the best deal we were going to get. It's like...

When you see some of the evidence that was mounting against him, it's hard to believe that statement. It's hard to believe that statement. If you read the articles that they talk about, it's hard to believe that they were going to lose. Well, they're saying that the deal that he cut wasn't even legal.

That the deal that they cut was so lax, it wasn't even legal. Yeah. Like, it's crazy. The police officers in this case, really interesting guys, they wind up going to, they're going to try to create a law that says if the person, I want to say, let me think if I can remember exactly what the law is, but I think the law is something like from now on, if a person is underage, no person can plead prostitution.

You can't plead prostitution if a person is underage. Good, it's not. They're trying to make that a law across the United States where that would be something that there's nothing you can do. If you go with an underage person, that's your fault. Too bad. That's just the way it works. And it's not prostitution. You can never plead down to that. That's your fault. Too bad. That's just the way it works and it's not prostitution.

You can never plead down to that. That's amazing. And these are the police officers that tried to get this case and they just feel horrible. How fucking frustrating would that be? Like, we have mountains of evidence.

We got this fucking guy. Yeah. And like, he gets to play, play like jail for 13 months. Yeah. Most of the time, do whatever he wants during the day. Go back. He gets out, has a jail for 13 months. Yeah. Most of the time, do whatever he wants during the day. Go back.

He gets out, has a fucking party to celebrate his return. Yep. And his life moves the fuck on. Yeah. And now he's, now he's in real jail. Like right now he's in jail.

He's in real, real extra double special. He's not in the, in the, I get to leave for, you know, a whole day and come back when I want. He's in the, I'm fucked jail.

And I hope he stays in I'm fucked jail. And I hope that they really do throw the book at this guy. But let's get back to the story. We got off on a tangent talking about Epstein, but this is really about the floods, earthquakes, and other stuff that caused Trump. This is Waldo McDonald. Waldo.

He looks crazy. He looks amazing. Like Gilligan. He does. He's like Gilligan. He's show. Waldo. He looks crazy. He looks amazing. Like Gilligan. He does. He looks like Gilligan. He's the skipper too. God, Gilligan has aged poorly. Holy shit.

Trump did a three-hour tour in Vietnam, right? Is that what he did? There we go. Something shifted in the spirit realm, thirsty, on July the 4th. I was in. It was either that or gas.

I'm not sure which. Something either shifted in the spirit realm or I ate lentils. I'm not sure which one it is. It's probably the, this by the way, this says Monday night, spiritual smack down with Mark Taylor. Spiritual smack down.

Get the fuck out of here. In DC, I watched that speech. I watched it again just to get a little bit more of it it was pouring rain it was hot i wasn't able to i wasn't close and there was only one oh he must have went yeah oh yeah he went that's what he's saying man he went and he's like i fucking really shitty and uncomfortable this guy this clown shoe ass motherfucker would go christ i'm trying to try and i heard most of it

but i went back and listened to it again and mark our president shook the heavenlies with that speech something shook the heavenlies not the heavens the heavenlies shifted over dc and an earthquake two earthquakes a flood now in dcC., and this Epstein thing, brother. Something is astir in the head. Do these people not realize how cases are brought to trial? They do not realize so much. Trump read a thing and they immediately arrested Epstein. Like, they didn't have mountains of evidence and work ahead of that.

In a month of ongoing prior investigation. Like, how the fuck does Trump's speech trigger an event in the past? I don't even understand how that works. The future of... I don't even get it. Unless he coordinated. Go 80 miles an hour.

Maybe what he did was he coordinated with the prosecutor ahead of time. It's like, look, I want to give a nice speech. I want to give a speech to show off all my big missiles. He had to actually go to California and like whisper sweet nothings to the tectonic plates. Hey guys, I'm going to give a speech. It's going to be such a good speech.

You're going to love it. You're going to shake. It's going to make you rattle. It's going to make your heavenly shake. Just come on, give me a little wiggle for me. Come on, honey, give me a little shake. Heavenly's over this nation right now. Absolutely. And what people have to understand is that this Ep me a little shake. Heavenly's over this nation right now. Absolutely.

And what people have to understand is that this Epstein thing is huge. This is way bigger than most people. I heard it was small. We just heard it was small. It's tiny. It's like a small, small gray mushroom. It's like a cashew.

Everybody, the naysayers out there that have been out there saying, nothing's happening, nothing's happening. They're getting impatient. Oh, we were saying that when nothing was happening. We were saying that when, yeah happening. Yeah, we were saying that until something that you can say was the thing I predicted

is the thing. Because you gave it no time limit and no specifics. Also, if we're being really pedantic, it's not pedophilia if they're post-pubescent. Pedophilia is pre-pubescent. Oh, I didn't realize that. So the definition of it is a psychiatric disorder in which an adult has sexual fantasies about

or engages in sexual acts with a prepubescent. Prepubescent. Yeah. Okay. So when they're post-pubescent, then it's something else. It's something else.

I don't know what the name is. Illegal. It's rape. It's rape. It's still rape of a minor. It's illegal. But it's not the same. But you are right.

It's not the same thing. Right? It's not like, it's not eating, it's not Hillary Clinton eating the face off a baby. It's not the same thing right it's not like pedophile it's not eating it's not hillary clinton eating the face off a baby it's not you know them taking little kids from haiti and shipping them up here and like running them between tunnels and houses and shit right playing the fucking like running man with little kids between houses it's none of that it's none of

the shit you said it was it's none of the shit that fucking eight fingers croaking said it was. It's none of that shit. Is it eight, nine, 10? Whatever it is, whatever it is, it's none of those things. What it is, is something else that now you can tack onto. And it's also something that happened before. This has been these sorts of things. It's not like the Miami Herald article that unveiled a lot of this shit didn't come out before. This has been, these sort of things, it's not like the Miami Herald article that unveiled a lot of this shit didn't come out before. It came out in 2015 or something like that? So the Miami Herald had gone after him

after he had gotten arrested, after he had served time, and they're like, fuck that, let's go after this guy. And they went and dug into his past, and they did a bunch of other investigative work. So that article is not new. It's not like last week. It's been out for a while. Someone tuned us up into it

because they had mentioned Pedophile Island, Epstein's Pedophile, and we had never heard of it. Yep. We didn't know about it. We were making jokes about Pedophile Island

with those lyrics. It's real. But the thing is, he does have a real island in the version. Yeah. Little St. James is what it's called or Little St. Jeff depending on where. That's a creepy name given the circumstances. Super creepy. the, yeah. Little St. James is what it's called

or Little St. Jeff depending on where. That's a creepy name given the circumstances. Super creepy. Yeah, little. Yeah,

little Jeff. What are you going to do, little Jeff? Also like, underage human sex trafficking is a real problem. Yeah, absolutely.

So like, if you just predict sex trafficking and you don't like, if you don't require specificity and timelines, it's like, yeah,

all right. Lightning's going to strike. Yeah. And okay. And also this guy, this guy, you know, they've been,

they've been blaming the Democrats the whole time. And it's like, this guy is, does, is equal opportunity with everybody. Right.

This guy is chummy with all different kinds of people. Alan Dershowitz is like flying on his jet fucking after he got out of prison or maybe it was before it was either before he went to prison, but it was known and he was on trial for it. It was after he got out of prison or maybe it was before.

It was either before he went to prison, but it was known and he was on trial for it. It was after he went to prison. Fucking Stephen Hawking went and had a barbecue on his island. Really? Yes.

Oh my God. Yes. What? And like, he's hung out with tons of people like Katie Couric and like all kinds. He's just like a,

he's like. he's just a fucking super rich, super powerful rich guy. Who has powerful, and he's also the kind of he's like. Yeah, he's just a fucking super rich. He's just a super powerful rich guy. Who has powerful. And he's also the kind of guy who gets involved in all these celebrity circles. So he knows everybody. Right. He knows everybody and everybody flies on his jet and everybody does.

So there could be a huge list of people that were involved in some crazy shit. And then there's also probably a bunch of people that'll be really embarrassed that they hung out with this guy. Right. After they're done. Like, Jesus, I didn't know he's going to fucking diddle kids. I didn't know. I just wanted to go for right on a jet. Here's your first high profile arrest right here.

And this is what's Katie bar the door, because this is what's going to open the floodgates, which we'll talk about in a minute. And so between this guy and El Chapo, which gets sentenced on the 17th of this month. This is not a coincidence. No, it's not. That all this stuff's happening at the same time.

These two guys alone, Chris, could literally take down most of DC. El Chapo? Yeah, I don't know what that's about. Was there sex trafficking with El Chapo? I thought he was a drug cartel guy. USA Today says El Chapo allegedly had sex with underage girls, called them his vitamins record show.

That's gross. Fuck. Man, it's almost like terrible people are terrible. You know, yeah, right? It's almost like awful people are bad. But you know, the thing is, it's a really dumb thing. But in any case, the thing is, there's some real

serious stuff coming out now that it's kind of crazy that Epstein's being re-investigated because there's a lot of stuff that's linking him to Trump. And Trump said he's a great guy. There's supposedly that one- That quote about he's a really great guy. He loves the ladies, sometimes the younger girls. The younger girls, yeah.

I like those younger girls. Like, what the fuck? Fuck. What? But also, I thought I read this week, and I don't remember what the source was. So I don't want girls. Like, what the fuck? Fuck. What? But also, I thought I read this week, and I don't know if, I don't remember what the source was, so I don't want to,

again, I don't want to be like, this is a true thing. So definitely do the research yourself if you're looking it up. But I thought I read this week that there was a private party for him, Trump, at Mar-a-Lago with like 25 girls

and just the two of them. That's always weird, man. You don't need a 12 to 1 ratio. One of the girls that winds up being part of this sex thing that he had going on worked at Mar-a-Lago. Are you serious? Yeah. Yeah.

So there's some weird shit that- There's some connections, man. There's some connections. And the thing is like, I don't think Trump's hiring. Trump's not the HR guy at Mar-a-Lago, right? Okay. So I understand that, right?

Trump's not the HR guy. He's probably only on site just to be a douchebag and then leave once in a while. He's not running the hotel operations. He likes to have his name on it and he has all the other people to do it. So I get that. I understand that.

But you also have to understand that a powerful guy like Jeffrey Epstein goes to a powerful guy's place to become a predator, you know, because he feels at home there. Because he feels like somebody's got his back. Yeah, he's protected.

That's what it, you know, and that might not be true, but that's what it feels like. Yeah. Most of the global elites all over the world, whether it's Hollywood, whether it's overseas, whatever, this is huge right now. The rest of this guy, this is what's going to open the floodgates for all the rest of the stuff to follow.

And this just skims the surface of what's coming because you figure this guy's only got them in blackmail and compromising positions, you know, with the sex stuff or whatever it is. And so, I mean, this is other, it's going to lead to other things right here. This is what I believe is going to be. This is the least clear thing.

It's just, it's just what is happening. He keeps saying the same thing. It's like, don't worry. There's going to be more. It's going to be great. It's going to be the best floodgates.

It only skims the surface of the floodgates. The floodgates are holding back like custard. Like it's just been sitting out. It's like a weird skin across the top of the floodgates. The floodgates are holding back like custard. Like it's just been sitting out. It's got like a weird skin across the top of it. What? That is gross, by the way, the custard.

Where you can bounce a quarter off. That's disgusting. You got to like peel it back and like throw it at somebody. You got to be careful when you cover it. You just got to cover it and get all the air out of there.

That's the real key. It's like guacamole. Just get all the air out of there. That's the real key. It's like guacamole. Just get all the air out of there. Put the cover on the, you know, put the saran right on the top of it. And then your custard will stay for a few days without a skin on it. Who wants to eat a skin custard? Who has custard that lasts a few days? What are you saying right now?

Who has guacamole that lasts more than one sitting? I like, I'm trying to think of this world where like somebody made custard and I'm like, oh, I'm done with that. Someone made, I'm like, I'm done with the bowl the custard was in. Someone made custard and or guacamole

and then used it over multiple days is not a reality that we live in. Pretty soon you're going to be like, oh, there's going to be rich, powerful people having sex with children. What's going on? It'll be the catalyst

that starts this whole thing off. People have been asking, where's the arrest? Where's the arrest? I don't see anything happening. Folks, here it is. This is the start right here. Sit back, get your popcorn, put your seatbelt on, because this is going to be a heck of a ride, man.

You know, God has been giving sign after sign after sign. And they've been all very vague. I saw the sign. I opened my eyes and saw the... That's opened my eyes and saw the sign. That's an ace of bass song. Jesus Christ.

As to what's going on, and we've had two earthquakes, and so we've had two earthquakes in California, which was centered underneath China Lake, which is not a coincidence either. What? Wait, because of China?, which is not a coincidence either. What? Wait, because of China?

Because of China? China. China. I like that God puts them under China Lake. Not in China. We already have a place called China Lake. Let's just put it in China Lake. I don't really feel like I need to go all the way overseas for this.

God is like the fucking most most annoying cryptic messenger ever. What does he do? I don't even understand how God could make a sex scandal happen. Think about how he'd have to. Genuinely think about that for a little while. Do a couple Pornhub searches. You can't make that make sense. But okay, fine.

God makes an earthquake to tell us something. Like, why would he just put the clouds so they say words? Like, why are you being such a fucking asshole? If you're trying to fucking send me a message, it'd be like, it'd be like if your spouse is mad at you and they're like, I made dessert. Cool. It's chocolate cake. Cool.

And you're like, fuck, I got to realize chocolate cake a message. Maybe. It's chocolate cake. Cool. And you're like, fuck, I got to realize chocolate cake a message? Maybe it's just chocolate cake. Maybe if you're mad, you should say, like, what is happening? Nobody does this. Real people

who have less than omniscient powers don't behave this way. Oh my God, it's a molten chocolate cake. Maybe she's volcanically angry. What? What are you talking about?

Nobody has to go through this in real life. It's like God is the worst at scavenger hunts. Like, you know what I mean? It's like a weird, like, it's like one of those weird games that you play to find, like where you find a thing and you're like, oh, I found the clue.

Let's look it up. Okay. Buy a rock. It's like a weird geocache. It's like, I don't even understand. And he's got to hide. God's got to hide all his messages. Like, oh, he hid it in the Bible. All you have to do is just find every 12th word and you'll fucking find a word. If you look at the whole Bible and do a fucking, like a crossword word, six letter of the 12th word, right? Backward. Then you could fucking

find it, but otherwise you'll never find it. And it's the same thing all throughout history. Like I've got to find, I've got to figure out a way to somehow decode these weird cryptic messages. Can you imagine if you were like, Tom, I have a super important thing to tell you. Your life literally depends on it. So here's what I did. See, I scrawled it backwards on a treasure map that I buried. Why would you? Why just fucking tell me? Like you have a Bible for God.

Like you wrote it down. It's the manual. But instead, the manual's got to be decoded. And you're like, well, fucking Jesus, what a useless book. Because if I got, if I went and bought an appliance and I somehow had to decode the fucking manual, I'd throw the thing in the fucking garbage. Okay, what you got to do is you got to buy a toaster.

The toaster manual is for your washing machine, but your washing machine manual is actually for your router. And you're just like, what the fuck? I keep plugging in this water into the router and it's not working. There's some people believing that this is not, these are not earthquakes, that these were actually something else

that was going on in these underground dumb bases, deep underground military bases. Are you kidding me? Underground military bases? Like what did they have? 7.1 magnitude. What, did somebody fart under there? Okay, guys,

if we all squeeze at the same time. I know we have really smart people who listen. Yeah. I don't know why, but I know that they're there. If there was, I know like that they're, if there was, I know like directly underneath you,

if they were like lighting off a nuke, terrible place to be. But how far out away from a nuke does like, like the magnitude run out?

Because like, if you're standing over a nuke that gets blown up underground, depending on how deep, it's probably not very good for you. But a mile,

two miles away, because like, when those things, like when fucking plates move, it's like fucking a big goddamn area. It's probably not very good for you. But a mile, two miles away, because like when those things, like when fucking plates move, it's like fucking a big goddamn area. It's not like a tiny, and the only thing that humans can do that's even like remotely comparable is a nuke.

So I'm just curious, like how far away, like just someone do the math and tell me how far away they have to be to make a 7.1 or 2. Yeah. Somebody do the math. I'd be really curious about that too because I know that there were seismic events

in Australia that I read about years and years ago. They happened a long time ago. And Australia is so vast and so unpopulated in the middle that there was speculation about whether or not it was a nuclear bomb or an earthquake. That whether it was like a group testing, like a homemade bomb. So I know that there can be seismic similarity,

like you're saying. So I'd be really like, can we make something equal to a 7.1? How far underground would it have to be to have no visible ground effect? And how far away would you have to be to feel it? Because it's clearly the magnitude would be bigger at different places. How big would that be?

How big and how deep, right? Those are the questions that Jeffrey Epstein's been asking for a long time. Thank you. So we want to thank our patrons. Of course, we want to thank our patrons.

So we want to cover some of the email that we've gotten in the past couple of weeks. We didn't get a chance to do email last week because we had recorded a little early. We got a message.

This is from Greg. And Greg said that there is a beer brewery called Evil Czech Brewery. And they have a beer called Cognitive Dissonance. That is so cool. That's great. So we should actually try to see if we could pick some of this up,

maybe have it on a live stream sometime. We should. But yeah, hopefully we'll be able to pick some up and we'll have some in studio. That'd be great. That's great. We get a ton of requests all the time from people asking us to share things or to share their show.

We normally don't. We get a ton of these requests. We get so many of these. We don't. We normally don't do these sorts of things, mainly because it would take up so much time on our podcast. So we don't share them. And we can't play Pixies Choosies without being kind of assholes to somebody.

It's just, sorry, we can't do it. It's too much. Yeah, so we want to thank everybody for sending stuff in. We're happy that you guys do. And we certainly do watch it and listen to it and stuff. But we don't, it's rare that we will just,

you know, share. Unless you come on our show or something like that, we normally don't share the stuff. So we're just letting you know, we get so many requests for it. Thank you for thinking of us, but we really can't like without, like what Tom said, without paying, playing pixie chooses, we really can't share everything. We got a comment on our, on a cognitive dissonance website. And someone said that they grew up Jehovah's witness. And when they were born, they had a medical problem. They don't remember the specifics, but it had something to do with having an enlarged heart. The doctor said I needed a blood transfusion in order to live.

When my mom pointed out that this was against their religion, this doctor, a Jehovah's Witness, told her to ignore the church, not tell them about it, and give me the blood transfusion to save my life. My parents very easily broke the rules of the church to save my life. And over time, both my parents left the church. So I can 100% believe that this indoctrinated family only needed an excuse to break the rules of their church to save my life. And over time, both of my parents left the church. So I can 100% believe that this indoctrinated family only needed an excuse to break the rules of their church to save their kid. So that was, you know,

that I, it was something that we talked about. And it was something that we, that you brought up when you read it, it really stuck out to you. And there's a, there's a good chance, you know,

religion's great and all, but it's not the living, breathing child. You know what I mean? Right. Yeah. When the rubber hits the road. And I want to take that statement back. Religion is not great and all, but it's not the living, breathing child. Yeah. You know what I mean? Right, yeah. When the rubber hits the road. And I want to take that statement back. Religion is not great and all.

I just want to say, you guys know what I was going to say. You guys understand. Ryan sent us a message and he wanted to sort of talk a little bit about what happened with the woman who was charged with her fetus death. And this happened in Alabama.

They eventually, they did not do this. They were going to charge her with manslaughter when her baby was shot while she was in an altercation. Her baby was shot and the baby died. The fetus died and they wanted to charge her with manslaughter. We talked about it last

week and it was Alabama that was going to do it and we were talking about this is a really dangerous precedent to set. Right. And he wanted to call us out andlaughter. We talked about it last week and it was Alabama that was going to do it. And we were talking about, this is a really dangerous precedent to set. Right. And he wanted to call us out and say, look, in other places and other jurisdictions, she probably would have been called on some sort of wrongful death because there's a lot of talk out there right now

that she started this fight and this woman feared for her life. I do want to point out one thing. This woman was a concealed carry holder. The woman who shot the lady with the fetus, the pregnant woman. The lady who shot her was a concealed carry operator. And when we took that class in Illinois,

they specifically drummed into our head, you need to say the moment someone comes and you fired your gun, you need to say, I was afraid for my life. And you need to say that because if you don't, then you can start racking up charges. They can come after you. So you have to make it seem like you were afraid for your life. I will point out, I'm not sure that's clear from this case. She does say it. The woman does say it again, maybe because it's drummed in.

But the other thing that I want to point out is this woman shot at the ground and the ricochet is what hit the woman, hit the pregnant woman. Did she intend to shoot at the ground?

Yes. That's what she said. She said, I tried to fire a warning shot at her. Yeah, that's not something you do when you're scared for your life.

So I do want to point out that while, yeah, maybe, I have no idea how this fight progressed, right? I've read a couple of accounts of this fight and it's a lot of, you know, I know that this woman was an aggressor in yelling, but I don't know that this woman was an aggressor in physically upping anything up

and this other woman shot. So I have no idea where it stops and where it starts. So I don't know if what you say is true, that she would be charged in other jurisdictions. I don't know if that's even true, but I will say, I think that this case is really important because of the manslaughter. The manslaughter thing is what makes it interesting to talk about because if you bring it up to level of manslaughter, you're saying that's a person. Right. And that's different. That's the whole thing that Alabama is trying to do. And we know Alabama is trying to do this because they said so. What Alabama is trying to do is they're trying to get cases, try cases that they know will be challenged to push it up in order for them to get fetuses declared full personhood.

It's not something we think maybe that they're trying to do. We know they're doing it because they've said as much. So Alabama doesn't get the benefit of the doubt. It's important the context of where this takes place and the circumstances and the social context. And I don't want to wash away the fact that she might be criminal. She might be negligent. Oh, yeah. Maybe negligent. I don't know. It's hard to know from the articles I've read that this woman is definitively negligent, right? What I do know is, is that Alabama wanted to charge it as manslaughter. I think that's the important key part of that. But thank you for the

message. I love to get stuff like this. It makes me think and it also expands how I want to think about it, right? Do I really believe what I, you know, because we had a conversation about it and I read that message and I thought, wow, you know, these are some really interesting points. And I had to think about it. I had to go back and read the stories and I'm glad that there's pushback there. So thank you, Ryan, for sending that message. Tom, we got a couple of comments on our post on Patreon we want to cover. We're talking about North Korea last time. We mentioned North Korea and we talked about the way in which people are murdered there. One of them was the aircraft gun was shot. A couple people sent us messages and said, hey, there is some

fake news that's running around. Some onion-like sites report some crazy shit that happens. And some of the stuff that happens in North Korea gets reported and sometimes then pulled back because specifically it's a regime where it's hard to get information out.

So we wanted to talk a little bit about that right now. Yeah, I think Cecil and I try to make sure that the information we're getting comes from good sources. But with North Korea, I don't know that there are good sources. Yeah. The problem with North Korea is it's an incredibly closeted, secretive regime. Yeah. And a lot of the reporting that comes out of North Korea has

a real political agenda to it. So some of the specifics, we might get that wrong, but we didn't get it wrong because we were just making it up. Typically, we're reading this stuff from very reputable sources. It's just that it's North Korea. So what happens on Tuesday, by Wednesday, maybe that didn't actually happen. Yeah. We're not 100% sure. Yeah. And the other thing too is like,

like specifically the anti-aircraft gun, there is, it was reported in the New York Times, a guy fell asleep at a meeting and was shot with an anti-aircraft gun. It was murdered. Did it wake him up? Executional style.

He's. He could have dipped his hand in some cold water. Warm water. I bet he pissed his pants, I'll tell you that. But, you know, you don't... Again, it's reported

that that happened. The New York Times reported it. Again, do we know that that 100% happened? We do know that there are people that disappear, right? You know that for sure.

So... We know there's gulags. We know a lot of terrible things happen. Yeah, it's not like... It's not that they're 100% blameless either oh lord no

you know you definitely don't and there are videos that do surface of some crazy shit that happens there so when people that escape

tell stories too but yeah 100% like the the problem one of the problems with North Korea is the reporting that comes out of it

is never is often not verifiable. So it's our hope next week to have a live stream. We will see what time that's going to happen. We have a guest on, so we're going to try to do the guest stuff beforehand, but that normally does push our live stream a little later. So we will be in touch during the day. We'll let you know during the day sometime. Keep your eyes on our Twitter feed and on our Facebook page. And we normally do have a post

that goes up in the morning that lets you know sort of when we plan to be on. But nine or 10 central is normally when we enter the glory hole to film. And we'd love to have you join us. So be ready for the evening portion of our live stream next week for a single or two stories just to play around. And we will be back next week with a full show. And we're

going to leave you like we always do with the Skeptic's Creed. Credulity is not a virtue. It's fortune cookie cutter, mommy issue, hypno Babylon bullshit.
