And that is going to be my defense from now on for pretty much anything that happens. Oh, yeah. When I do it, it doesn't matter. It doesn't count.

As long as I believe in my hearty heart heart that because I did it, the world became a better place. Yeah. When I pull it out of the capital and it's not a practice. We obviously would be talking about the fucking bizarro fun factory that is the legal justifications

going on in the impeachment trial a little later on this week at Trump. But man, it's like, you couldn't come up with crazier shit that if you like, I know, press it from a fucking plate. I like what legal defense are we using?

And the worst part is, is just delaying the inevitable. So that's the worst part. Yeah. So we'll talk about that later. Let's move on to other fun stuff. Okay. Yeah.

So the story is from rolling stone.com. Rolling stone has some like really great journalism. Like I, I know that's like, yeah, no shit Sherlock, but I used to subscribe to Rolling Stone when I was a young person. Yeah. And all I read was the music shit.

And I would be so annoyed at like the long form articles about like, hey, dumb young person, here's how the world works. I'd be like, the new album is coming out and I want to know if it's good. Like I was such a stupid piece of shit. And you never paid attention at all to the long form article about Rush

Limbaugh attacking Clinton because of this or that. That's awesome. Seriously, I had a subscription to Rolling Stone, a paper for years, for years. And I didn't even know until like I was in my late 30s. Like, there's good journalism in Rolling Stone.

What a fucking idiot. All the hippies are slapping you in the face. They're like, yeah, no kidding, dumbass. All right. So QAnon YouTubers are telling people to drink bleach to ward off coronavirus. Nice. Well, that's fucking inevitable. Is there anything more in fucking

inevitable than that sentence that I just read? Are you really against QAnon supporters drinking bleach though? I mean, are you really upset by that? Are you super duper upset by that? Because at a certain point, you are self

selecting. You are just saying, you know what? This is fine. I'm going to end the line are just you're just saying you know what this is fine i'm gonna end the line here i'm good you know what just go ahead you know what that will work let me get you a glass that's a way better way to say child free by the way the the line dies with me is way better than child free child free is so wimpy in comparison i like child free because like when i hear it i just like i'm envious of the back half of that word. The free? The free.

Because there is nothing free. Everything about my life lacks freedom. Oh, yeah. It's not only like cost wise, but it's also time wise and so many different things. God, I've made a lot of bad choices. Sorry. So I want to talk about this because we have-

They have names. You have- I don't want to talk about that. Who cares about that? Seriously, though, this is a product called MMS, and it's a miracle mineral solution, which is a bleaching agent that can give you acute liver failure. And I think acute liver failure is when you take a photo of it and they put it on Instagram.

Acute liver failure is like you're making like duck lips with your yellow eyes. It's like, oh, it's adorable. You give your loved one a peck on the cheek as you die. Okay. Bad news is his eyes turned yellow and he's pissing blood. Good news is he did it while holding a kitten. Amazing. Oh, my God.

Good news is he got 75 hearties. Do you know what I love about this is the same group of people that are afraid that vaccines give you autism. That's MMR. They're one letter away. They're MMR. They're one letter away. They're so close. They're one letter away. They're so close, right? You were so close

to getting this right. They were right in there. The QAnon supporters, we remember QAnon, guys. We haven't talked about it in a while because there hasn't been any mass arrests

that they've been talking about for years at this point. Is it three years now? Is it the beginning of the Trump era that's going on? I think so. Yeah. Yeah.

I think so. I, I want to know, like, I cannot wait until either next year. God fucking willing. Or five years from now when like no mass arrests happen. Yeah.

I know that these guys won't eat crow none of them no no they won't they won't ever walk it back they're never gonna walk it back right they are in it to win it at this point but when that happens like i want to have one on the show i'd be like hey so here's some stuff you said out loud what's a massive what were the mass arrests who exactly was in the mass arrest just wondering other than 200-some people that have gone to jail. The fucking Trump administration. Besides those mass arrests. Just like Epstein killing himself and Prince Andrew not cooperating

against his mass arrests. I know. Here is the fucking news. Ex-commercial TV PR man, old Etonian, and occasional pig fucker David Cameron would like to bomb Syria. Unfortunately, Russia's got there first and America's been doing it for ages. He wants to bomb Syria to stop the flow of refugees fleeing all the bombs. He's also hoping it will stop the increased influence of Islamic extremism.

Bombing Syria will, of course, destroy the one remaining multicultural society in the region, leaving it open to the increased influence of Islamic extremism. To bomb Syria, therefore, is clearly mental. This is from Forbes, Kelly and Pompeo. How a journalist masterfully combated gaslighting. I want to play the clip, though, because we want to hear the clip first and then we'll talk about what what what actually went down. first, and then we'll talk about what actually went down. People who work for you in your department, people who have resigned from this department under your leadership saying you should stand up for the diplomats who work here. I don't know who these unnamed sources are you

referring to. I can tell you this. These are not unnamed sources. This is your senior advisor, Michael McKinley, a career foreign service officer with four decades experience who testified under oath that he resigned in part due to the failure of the State Department to offer support to Foreign Service employees caught up in the impeachment inquiry on Ukraine. I'm not going to comment on things that Mr. McKinley may have said. I'll say only this. I have defended every State Department official. We've built a great team. The team that works here is doing amazing work around the world. I've defended every single person on this team. We've built a great team. The team that works here is doing amazing work around the world. Sir, respectfully, where have you defended Marie Yovanovitch?

I've defended every single person on this team. I've done what's right for every single person on this team. Can you point me toward your remarks where you have defended Marie Yovanovitch? I've said all I'm going to say today. Thank you. I think that is a perfect way. And we've been talking about this, Tom, for a long time. This, one of the things that happened when Trump was first elected,

and this happened with all of his staff too. So it wasn't just Trump, right? This isn't just a Trump story. This is an administration story. Everything that was happening in the beginning with his press secretary, with all of his appointees to high office, with himself, with his spokespeople that weren't even appointed to anything, Kellyanne Conway is who I'm thinking of, they all walked all over the press and the press ate it up and posted it as if it were supposed to be outrage. You should be outraged by this, but nobody was outraged. In fact, it energized a whole group of people in this country, basically saying, look, you're getting what you deserve. You're an awful group of people.

You're getting what you deserve. Instead of being good journalists and pushing for an answer, not accepting a bullshit answer, they just went with that abuse that they were getting and used that as the story. That was the story for so long. The drama. The drama was the story. It became its own thing of that. The drama was the story, exactly. Became its own thing. Like, look how abused we are. Yeah.

Well, we don't like that at all, but like they create, yeah. But when they did that, I think what they also did is they taught everybody by example, like on the administration side, exactly what to do and how to deal with them and how to avoid, right? Yeah. And we talked about many times how they need to ask the same question if someone doesn't

answer it, right? Ask the same question again. That person didn't answer it. Cool. The next person in line, give up the question you were going to ask as long as you're not one of those partisan hacks, right? Say, okay, well, you didn't answer that question over there. And we saw it happen three, four times during the entire administration where someone said, no, I really want an answer. And we have no idea whether or not they had that question in their own little bank ahead of time. We don't know. But there's been a couple times that that's happened. In this case, this person has got Pompeo on the side and they're asking hard, hard questions. And they're not going to give him a chance to say a lie without calling

it out. They're not going to give him a chance to talk over him. There's all these things in this article that they point out exactly what this reporter did to stop Pompeo from trying to gaslight essentially the United States, the people that this report is going to reach. Because if you just let him talk and you just let him say his lie and you never challenge him on it, then it's a lie you're spreading too. Yeah, you're using,

like he's using your soapbox. You're spreading it just as much as he is. You're just as culpable as he is. If you don't push back and you don't stop him from trying to, from trying to lie and obfuscate the lie and clearly obfuscate the truth, where did you fucking protect Maria Vanovic, right? Oh, I did that. Point me to your remarks.

Where's those remarks? Here's the name of the source. Exactly. No, no, no. We're not doing that. You're not going to let you reframe my question with your answer, which is something these guys are really good at, right? They'll reframe the question by citing an answer and like that that like oh no no worry not about the unnamed portion here is the name yeah here's what they said here is when they said it so you can't dodge that that's a fact like that is now i've laid it out

as a record and now you're just you know now you're backed into a little bit of a corner. Like, you know what I'm reminded of? Before 9-11, there was like hijackings that still happened. And there was this idea that like, if you went along with the hijacker, that most of the passengers would emerge unscathed. And that was kind of like standard protocol for a long time, because most of the time that worked, right? And then 9-11 kind of like standard protocol for a long time because most of the time that worked, right? And then 9-11 kind of changed that. And then when people pulled bullshit on planes after that, everybody kind of realized on the plane, holy shit, we're all in this together. And like people try to pull bullshit

and they got like mobbed. You know what I mean? There was people who got their asses kicked. Oh yeah. Beat down, held down. Tied up and like, yeah. Well, we've decided, I think, like as a nation, and we've acted in such a way that like recognizes the inherent danger, right?

So the tolerance for that sort of stuff is at zero. And everybody on that plane, regardless of like who you are, like it's like, holy shit, you see something and like it's a swarm of people. Sure. And that sort of bullshit has fallen to zero. Right. Right. So, like, it reminds me with the reporters of the same thing.

It's like, if we don't, if everybody doesn't get on board and recognize that reporting itself, that truth itself is at danger, that you are in a dangerous situation, and then unless you guys fucking basically unionize against that danger by doing what we've talked about on the show a bunch of times, if you don't do that, then you just get picked apart one by one. Boom, boom, boom, boom. Doesn't matter. If they just do that, it stops. It changes the whole dynamic and the whole power structure of that equation. Yeah. It's very important for me that nobody thinks President Trump has handed the keys to the war machine to some sort of hair trigger lunatic. Because if I heard someone say that, I'd blow him up quick. Trump's giving me the nukes, bloody boom.

So I don't know how much we're going to talk about John Bolton later on the show, but I figure we should probably try to talk about John Bolton a little bit ahead of time. We should. So here's a story from the Hill. Conservative pastor, Jesus would have beat the crap out of John Bolton. And I will say, like, that's animal abuse. Beating a walrus like that is unfair. He calls him a walrus too.

I want to read some of these tweets because they're outstanding. So this is Rodney Howard Brown, who's a South African. We've played his clips before on the show. I want to read these. This is his tweets to John Bolton in response to just a random tweet with John Bolton. John Bolton tweeted something out

and he responded. He basically replied to it. You are a slime ball of the highest order. Dot, dot, dot. I should have knocked your sorry butt through the door of the Oval Office into the Rose Garden when I saw you. I would have gladly been arrested.

Dot, dot, dot. What a Benedict Arnold. Dot, dot, dot. I am glad you were fired. Four exclamation points. I have no respect for someone who is disloyal to our president and loyal to the deep state. Three exclamation points. I have no respect for someone who is disloyal to our president and loyal to the deep state.

Three exclamation points. No respect. Only one exclamation point. No respect at all. Five ellipses. What a globalist sellout. Exclamation point. Emoji rolling its eyes.

I don't know that that's... Maybe that was a mistake. I mean, it's not only... Fat thumbs. The right can't meme, but the old people can't emoji. Boomer can't emoji as well. Like that's another thing.

Boomer can't emoji. The final one is, we are fighting for the Republic, endeavoring to save it from the deep state coup. This clown walrus, Warhawk Bolton, just needs to return to the deep state ocean he swam out of. Can I, you know, my favorite part of that is the last part of that, which is the idea that

John Bolton is simultaneously a Warhawk and a deep state operative. I know. That you can put those things together in the same sentence. Yeah. John Bolton is not deep state. John Bolton is a career. He is a Warhawk. Oh yeah. No, no. Yeah, John Bolden is not deep state. John Bolden is a career. He is a war hawk. Oh, yeah. No, no. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah.

Like part of like why he and Trump didn't get along is he was like, we should kill everybody always. And even Trump was like, slow the fucking down. Trump just looks at him. He's like, settle. Yeah. Simmer. Right.

Calm down. He's like a fucking dog that you can't heal. He's just constantly barking. He's like one of those Scotty dogs. Right. That is way bigger for its britches than it needs to be. And it's like trying to fight the fucking Rottweiler down the street. And you're just like, calm down, Johnny.

Calm down, Johnny. Okay. That's a lot of posture. Yeah. You can't back that up. I cut your balls off. Calm down, Johnny. I was there when you wore the cone, okay?

Like, I don't know who the fuck you're crapping. I hope somebody puts John Bolton in a cone. What a shame! I also want to say, too, everybody who's talking about how John Bolton is somebody's savior or whatever because he made remarks about Trump and then they tried to call him. I don't know if you remember

this. They tried to call him in the House. And the White House told him to refuse and he did. So he was, he had every opportunity to testify in this from the very beginning. Well, I don't know. I would push on that a little bit. I think the White House said you can't do it. So like I think

they intervened. I don't know that he could have shown up. Maybe you're right. Maybe you're right. I don't know. I don't know what level their powers are. I don't think he was working for them at the time. He wasn't,

but I think if they're exerting executive privilege, which is what they were trying to do, I think him showing up, might've gotten him into legal trouble. I see. Okay. Oh, okay.

Legal trouble. Oh, that's interesting. But anyway, the, I don't even want to, that's, it's very true. It trouble. Oh, that's interesting. But anyway, the... It's very true. It's very true, right? What would stop them from pushing for executive privilege on the

Senate here if they were to call him? What would stop them from doing that here? Probably nothing. Okay. All right. Probably nothing. It's just a matter of whether or not that looks so bad. I see. Because if the Senate did call him, which I don't think that they will. I think it's pretty much a I see. Because like if the Senate did call him, which I don't think that they will, I think it's pretty much a settled deal.

I think if the Senate did call him, the Senate as a group of Republicans then would have to be like, hey, even as Republicans we want to see it. Oh, I see what you mean. Yeah, yeah. Because before they didn't have the votes. I see how it works. So, um, the the problem though is that people are starting to talk about him

as if he's some kind of, you know, savior of the people in some way. John Bolton has always been out for John Bolton. Don't misremember that. Don't forget that. Don't forget that he also couldn't get confirmed by the Senate. Like, he couldn such a, uh, such a, a polarizing figure that they were not going to, they weren't, they just weren't going to confirm him. So let's not forget that John Bolton is out for John Bolton. John Bolton may also have just

written that in a book just to sell books. That's another thing that's very possible. Sure. Uh, so I don't, I don't look to John Bolton as if he's some kind of beacon of truth, but I would certainly love to see him take an oath and have to say something that he could then be called out on if he lies under oath. That's a big deal. You can go to jail for that. It turns out several people have done that in the Trump administration. It's the one piece of, it's the one bit of the dentures that still has some bites left. It's that one sharpish canine. But John Bolton is not anyone's savior. And I don't want

people to misunderstand who this person is. He's a dirtbag. He's always been a dirtbag. He's a, he's a shitty war, war hawk. Exactly what this other old guy said. He's a shitty dude. Um, and it's funny cause I agree with Rodney Howard Brown. I just don't, I just think the reasons why we don't, why he doesn't like him is cause he's not on his side right now. I don't like him for much deeper personal reasons. I do want to say this administration has caused me, through the course of the last three years, several times to look at loathsome people and be like, I got to hear what they have to say. There's never been a world where I'd be like, you know what? I've never been so interested in what Michael Cohen is about to say. And I don't want, okay, now I want to know, like, is that that I'm on their side?

Yeah, no, you want to eat a gun after you say it out loud. But, like, there is a point where you're, like, this administration is so fucked up that, like awful career republicans that have like they have been on the side of of every like republican administration for decade after decade and you're looking at that person and they're just like i can't even you're like we couldn't even to start with man this guy like why are you in camp? I never want to put my arm around John Bolton and sing Kumbaya. No. But right now, like, I want nothing more than to hear from John Bolton.

Yeah. And like, there's a part of my brain that tries to say that sentence and is just like, oh, turn off all the synapses. Just shut it down. Shut it down. It is, we are in a weird place, but I will say this.

Nothing's happening in the Senate. We'll talk about it in this week in Trump. Nothing's happening in the Senate right now. It just dumb posturing. Turn that off. Televise this fight. That's my answer. Televise the fight between John Bolton and Rodney Howard Brown.

Yes. On the fucking White House lawn. Two 65 yearyear-old dudes. I think Bolton's even older than 65. I don't know. But this guy's about 65-ish. Put them out on the middle of the lawn. In the Rose Garden. One swing,

and they are huffing and puffing, and they're hugging each other because they're trying to throw the other one down, but they're both exhausted after 15 seconds. I would make the biggest thing of popcorn and watch that for hours. That would be my favorite thing that ever happened. I was part of a special task force

of very young looking cops who infiltrated high schools. How do you do, fellow kids? What? I just like this story. This is from BuzzFeed News. This is just like, Steve King is so loathsome, right?

Oh, he's awful. The mom of Success Kid sent Representative Steve King a cease and desist letter for using the meme in an ad. So, Success Kid, the Success Kid meme is that like,

chubby kid, like holding some sand in a victorious like yeah he's got a little in his mouth too he clearly just put it in his mouth he did i mean this is a photo not a photo of a kid who's celebrating something this is a this is a photo of a kid who's wondering how he's gonna get that grit on his face that's what this is a photo of yeah it's but it's like it's that like victorious meme yeah yeah all over the place place. Success kid. Yeah. Kid looks so smug. I fucking love it.

He does. And his mom. Smart as fuck, man. Because everybody, it's so popular. It's ultra popular. Decides to market this. Not market it. She copyrighted it.

At least copyright it and get paid for it sometimes. But also give the ability for some people to use it. She gave Obama the ability to use it. I don't know how much he paid if he did at all. And so she is allowing some people to use it. She gave Obama the ability to use it. I don't know how much he paid if he did it all. And so she is allowing some people to use this meme, this image of her child that other people recognize in the world as this success kid meme.

She's giving them the opportunity to use it without asking, Steve King uses it. Yeah, and she flips, she's like, hey, look, this is something that like, I have a copyright to. Yeah. This is something that I routinely sell the rights to. Yeah. You can't just fucking use it.

But she goes further. She says, just so that it's clear, I have and would never give permission for use of my son's photo to promote any agenda of this vile man or that disgusting party. But yeah, Steve King is genuinely the worst person. I mean, Steve King is the calves the size of cantaloupes guy

that we play the clip for on occasion. The whatever happened to white nationals? Yeah, I mean, he's the guy who said there's plenty of dirt coming up from the border. Yeah. He's a genuinely awful, shitty person. He's not a nice guy. He's so bad that he was removed

from all of his committee assignments. He wasn't censured, but yeah, close. Because he's so disgusting. Think about how bad you have to be to the other Republicans. Yeah, right. That they're just like, whoa, a bridge too far, Steve.

Exactly. That one, no. Here's the thing,, Steve. Exactly. That one, no. Here's the thing, kettle. Right. But could you imagine, Tom, if like Steve King used one of your children as his, I mean, how, how, I would be so pissed if Steve King used anything related to me to advertise his campaign.

I would lose my fucking mind. And I absolutely 100% think this person should totally flip their shit and sue him if they have to. He took it down right away. They had it up there and it was fund our memes is what it said. Which I thought was weird for

an Iowa Republican old man. Fund our memes? I'm just thinking do your memes cost money somehow that I need to fund our memes like i'm just thinking like what do you do your memes cost money somehow that i need to fund your meme you gotta hire a meme guy right we gotta hire one of them young people none of us really know what these memes are like fund our memes are free my kids make memes they're terribly free yeah what are you kidding me and And I think that right afterwards, they took it down.

So it was initially up as a way to get funding, but they took it down immediately. I'm glad to see somebody standing up to them. And they do this with the songs too. You've heard the songs when artists will send a message, like especially via Twitter and say, please stop using my song. I don't want Born in the USA to be

played at a Trump rally or something. You know, it's interesting. I read one relatively recently about that issue and it's more complicated than you might think. So like those songs are not like, like there's a certain amount of rights that are typically given away in most production contracts. So if you're an artist and you sign like one of the like big contracts, like one of the things that lets politicians use those is you're, you're basically giving away the right to play those in public arenas. I see.

And because they have those rallies in these big public arenas, there's some like legal wiggle room about whether they need to ask your permission to use your fucking song. But what does happen typically is like, they recognize they don't want to get into a fucking Twitter fight with a rock star. And so they like, they back off, but Trump hasn't always backed off of them. He just keeps using some of them. I think there's like a, like an REM song right now that is, that is the subject of the article and they're like, we fucking hate that you're using this. Don't use it.

And they just don't respond to REM. So REM's just like in a Twitter fight with nobody. Yeah. And it's actually like,

again, it's ignoring. Yeah. That's what they're good at. It's what they're good at and they just ignore. It'd be like driving down the road

after a cop turns his lights on and you're just going like OJ. You're just going and going and going. And there's five or six cops and you're just waving. Just driving down the road. Driving down the road,

driving down the road. They finally pit maneuver you and you just keep going. You just change directions. Yeah, exactly. It doesn't even matter. I didn't care. I wanted to go that way.

That's what it feels like. That's what it feels like all the time with everything they do. Have you ever been in the car and not noticed you were being pulled over for too long? No. One time I was driving and I was a young man and I was extremely tired. Yeah. I was like your whole 18 to 22, you got about an hour a night. It was pretty rough. There were some times that were rough. So I was driving along and this is how it happened in my mind. I'm driving along and I noticed like the lights and then I hear the sound and I was like, oh, I'm being pulled over. So I pull over and like, that's what I thought happened. And the cop's like, what the hell is wrong with you? And I was like, well, what did I do? I pulled right over. He's's like i've been behind with the lights on for like a mile he's a guy that hit my siren to make you notice and i was like well i was driving forward so i was looking forward more you know like i'm all like tired and stupid he's like you didn't see me back there like i must have been like he's like are you drunk i'm like i'm just

tired man he's like you shouldn't be driving this car. I was like, I'm like right near home. Can I go home? He let me go home. He was just, he was so pissed that he was just like, oh, you're just stupid. You're just too stupid to have a car. God, if you'd have gone two miles, you'd have beat the shit out of me.

I know, if I was black. He'd have clubbed the fuck out of you, dude. Dude, I got pulled over. I was the most inadvertently racially profiled driver ever when I was in college. I drove a lot late at night and I drove a real shitty beater car for a long time. And so when I was driving a real shitty beater car, I would drive it through where my school was to get back home. My school was in a

nice neighborhood, in a neighborhood called Naperville. And so I would drive late at night in a beater car through Naperville. I got pulled over fucking all the time and a lot of times I got pulled over because I was speeding like I remember one time I got pulled over in the rain speeding with one of my lights out right so like hooker in the truck like they should have just shot me on the

spot it's three in the morning but like I'm white as the day is long so like cop comes up and like shines his light and he's like, hey, you're speeding back there and your light's out. And I was like, yeah, it's raining too. And like, I gave him my license.

And like, I had like a picture of like a Simpsons character taped over my face on my license. Did you really? Yeah, I thought it was funny. I had Homer on my license. Oh, super funny. And he's like, can you take the picture

off your license? I'm like, but I love this. And like, we made a couple of Simpsons jokes together and he let me go. I got pulled over without getting a ticket like 12 or 13 times because they thought I was someone I wasn't. They thought you were,

they thought you were somebody trying to do something bad in those neighborhoods. So like every time I was breaking the law though, every time I at least should have gotten a ticket. And I never even got a ticket. They're just like, uh, nice white. Let him go. It was like,

times plague sent by God to purge the world of sin. Nice. Drama. Alright, let's play this really quickly. This is Rick Wiles from his show, True News. Real quick before you do, have you seen that people are genuinely confused about the coronavirus being related to the beer?

Are you serious? Yeah, this is absolutely for real. I read a post article about this. That's really funny. That the Google search results the Google, uh, search results are like, people are looking up Corona beer virus and beer virus. They're like the top results for the Corona virus.

People are like confused that it's a beer. I saw a funny, a funny joke online. Uh, when you get the Corona virus, the best way to cure it, uh, is to insert into the bottle Lyme disease.

That's pretty good. So here we go. This is, this is Rick. My spirit bears witness that this is a genuine plague that's coming upon the earth. And God is about to purge a lot of sin off this planet. Plagues are one of the last steps of judgment.

So he's talking about the coronavirus being one of the plagues of God. Yeah. One of the plagues that's coming in. As a probably immunodeficient dude that could feasibly be more susceptible to this plague in his mid-60s than other people. Right.

Do you think maybe he should hedge his bets a little? Just say, you know, it's going to take good and bad people. Right. You know, when plagues happen, they just, they're pretty indiscriminate. It's like God's other rafts that are just like, ah, tornado hit a church. Exactly. Exactly, exactly. To make people in San Francisco mad. God takes collateral damage

wherever he goes. His fingers are big. It's like butt mashing. It's like he fat thumbed it. I'm a big friendly God. It's all friendly fire to me. So real quick, like I love too,

like it's going to purge the world of a lot of sin. I did a little bit of math real quick. About 100, using the numbers I saw today, about 106 people or so have died, about 7,700 are sick, which means that it's about 1.3% fatal. And it's just like, eh. Yeah. Like, at a scale from one to, eh. Yeah. It's like a big fucking meh. I read an article too in the Atlantic

that was talking about like, they established an R naught value for like the, how rapidly a disease spreads. Like, I forgot what the term is, but, and the idea is that like, it's R and then a number, and then whatever the number is, is on average, how many people one sick person will infect. Sure. And so there's like troubles with how those numbers are calculated and some difficulty in how those numbers are understood. So this Atlantic article is 9,000 words long. Sure, yeah, yeah. You're never going to finish it.

Right. But they're talking about this potentially having an R value of 1.5 or 2, which is actually reasonably virulent, right? By comparison, though, try to guess the R value, if don't already know it for measles, which we have a vaccine for. Seven. Sixteen. I was going to go 15 and then I cut it in half. Fucking 12 to 16, depending on the population that it's in. So one person with measles will infect on average between 12 and 16 people. We're fucking flipping shit about a coronavirus.

And I'm not saying we shouldn't. Yeah, that one person, possibly maybe two, they're going to run into and give it to. Yeah. And it's a disease that also is not super fatal.

We were talking earlier about the regular flu and the regular flu is way worse. Yeah, so like I read some other stuff that compared this coronavirus to just the yearly seasonal influenza. This year alone, like this year, and the flu season begins in October

and it goes through the winter months typically. So there's still some time on our flu season. 15 million people in the US alone have gotten influenza. 150,000 ended up in the hospital. 15 million. 15 million people. It's a lot more than 8,000. It's a fuck ton more. And that's just in the US. That's a wild, crazy, like unbelievable number that like the worldwide number was like 65 million people this year. And the season's not over. And we, and we have a vaccine. Like you can go to the fucking CVS and you can get a shot that takes like a minute and every insurance company covers it. They all cover it. And like, then you don't get the fucking flu.

And the flu has already killed, I think it was like 8,000 people, which is the same number of people that have gotten infected with the coronavirus. But on average every year, it kills between 12 and 60,000 people. And again, that's just in the US. That's not worldwide.

Yeah. Like worldwide. Worldwide. It's a massive number. And it's been, it has had upticks in the past where many, many more people have died. The early

1900s, there was an influenza epidemic that murdered millions and millions of people. But currently we are treating the coronavirus. I think that one of the things that happened today was the World Health Organization called it an epidemic or pronounced it an epidemic.

And they do that for a couple of reasons. They do it to try to get, garner attention in the media for it, to try to garner funds to help combat it. It doesn't necessarily mean that it's, oh my gosh, it's the worst thing in the world, but it does help try to combat something. And they are, it sounds like they're on it right now.

I don't know that this is going to be the, it's still early, but I don't know that this is going to be a big, crazy bunch of people die. You know, it could also morph. There's always those opportunities that things can change. People in the States have been sick.

People in Chicago have been sick. So it's cause for concern. It is. But it's not, it's not, one of the things that is crazy about this is, you know that there's going to be some people who are freaking out about this

also are anti-vax. And that was, like that was the whole thing. It's like, we have every year a seasonal flu, just the same flu, and it is going to sicken and kill many more people than what we're already fucking stressed about. And there's pushback on the goddamn flu vaccine. There's pushback on the goddamn measles vaccine. Like the R value, the likelihood of one person transmitting measles to other people is enormous.

It's like many multipliers more virulent than this thing that we're worried about. Like the chances of you dying from like regular seasonal flu, which is fucking preventable. Yeah. And like we have anti-vaxxers who are out there, like you're saying, like they fucking preventable. Yeah. And like,

we have anti-vaxxers who are out there, like you're saying, like they're out there. They're just like, I never get the flu shot because then I'll get the flu. Like, well, you're a fucking idiot.

That's literally impossible. That is not possible for that to be the case. Like the flu shot cannot cause the flu. I had somebody, I had somebody at my work

to tell me that. Oh, I've heard it so much. They said, oh, I got this, I got the shot and then I got sick. And I said, how many times have you gotten that shot before? Are you counting the hits, forgetting the misses? And they stopped themselves and reevaluated a little. But yeah, it's a very common thing for people to say.

They say it all the time. And what they really mean is like, I got a cold around the same time. Oftentimes, that's what they really mean. And a cold is not the flu. I got a cold. And it's like, yeah, you got a flu shot. And it takes a couple of weeks for the flu shot also to become effective.

And like any vaccine, it's not a hundred percent. Like this is about like reducing. Yeah. It's narrowing the funnel. It's not. Learn how it works one time. It doesn't fucking envelop you in a bubble. Right.

Yeah. And you walk around like a bubble person. I have a shield that is magic that prevent though it's not nobody has ever said that to you like the very last step is war that's the last step but plagues and pestilence those are one of the steps of judgment when nations refuse look at china god it's got to be death is the last one, right? Because it's plagues, pestilence. It seemed like the same thing.

Famine. Famine's in there, but I don't know where famine steps in. I don't know what the order of operations is. War happens too, but I don't know which one starts it. Well, you know what I do. Because we're always at war.

We've been constantly at war since forever. I find comfort in that, like we so far have not had any diseases this is the first one the very first disease right which is good yeah that's good since the garden of eden 6 000 years ago we've had like an easy go of things like super easy super glad this is the first pestilence yeah never a chance of that happening and obviously like war hasn't happened no no i am nervous about am nervous about it. It could break out. I'm scared of it. Anytime.

Like, what is like, what is your worldview? You're like, man, what if a disease happened? It's just like, it's just like everything else.

It's super easy to just plug in because there's almost always going to be people sick. There's almost always going to be some conflict. There's going to be people dying. That's the nature of life. Yeah. All of these things are ways in which they can control society by pointing to places in society and say, look, see, this is the bad stuff that you're bringing onto yourself. You need to follow my orders. A godless state, a godless government, godless communist government that persecutes christians forced

abortions all right they're not the chinese communists are not virtuous people they're godless and god is sending them basically like a pneumonia yeah like that's like that's the big punishment if you're buying into his worldview, just to extend his thing out, it's not like God is sending smallpox. Sure. Which we've already had, I guess, for no fucking reason, right? Right. Like, God is sending, like, pneumonia that kills old people.

Like, that's essentially what coronavirus causes. Like, old people and, like, immune-compromised people, they fucking die because that happens it's very sad it is sad but like this is your big retribution it's like ho fucking hum yeah i'm not talking about the chinese people i'm talking about the government right okay well the people are the ones that are getting sick but fuck them yeah you know that's how god works yeah god's like hey i know you didn't make this decision but fuck you you running. Yeah, exactly. You know, it's still your fault.

Yeah. Actually, that's literally how your God works. That's literally actually how your God works. It's exactly, it's collateral damage constantly and it's never hitting

the right person. Right. It's never going to take out the guy who runs the government over there. Any part of the government isn't going to die from this. No.

It's going to be people that are poor or older that are immunocompromised. Those are going to be your people to die from this. No. It's going to be people that are poor or older that are immunocompromised. Those are going to be your people who die from this. It's all, it's like,

God never shoots fucking the Hitlers of the world with lightning bolts. It's never happened ever. Like, at some point, can't you throw your hands up

and be like, look, God is not helping. Yeah. He is not, like, stepping in like, well,

that was a bad call. Let me go ahead and assist here. He had tons of opportunities to help guide bombs that dropped on Germany. He never did one time. There was even that big assassination attempt that failed. He could have easily helped out there.

Tom Cruise with his eye patch could have used your help, buddy. Look at the United States. Look at the rebellion, the spiritual rebellion that's in this country, the hatred of God, the hatred of the Bible, the hatred of righteousness, hatred of innocent.

I'm just bored of it. I'm not, I don't hate it. I'm just bored of it. It's the, it's the most boring story ever told. Those people are not getting invited to the party. I'm here to be innocent and righteous.

And oh my God, no kidding maybe you should fucking bring some guacamole somewhere else motherfucker you are boring rub it on your nipples

then we'll talk hatred of innocence is vile disgusting people in this country now the Jews sorry I'm sorry

I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry gendering little children is that a thing is that sorry. Transgendering little children. Is that a thing? Is that a verb? Transgendering little children. Can you transgender someone?

I don't know. Like, do you have to have the power of gray skull to do it? It sounds like a slur. It does. It sounds like a slur. Yeah. And it also like refers to something that is not happening. Right? Like, it's just, it's fucking made up bizarro fantasy yeah yeah perverting them look at the

rapes and the sexual immorality and in the church i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry just the filth on our tvs and our movies and folks the death angel angel. He is just titillated. That's all that's happening. Like he is fucking DVR now. Yeah. Do you, I don't know anybody. I don't know any psychopath that watches anything live except for sports.

That's the only, that's the only thing though. There's people that walk around this world that watch live TV and they have their ringers up constantly. They're psychopaths. They're fucking psychopaths. That's true. They're absolute psychos.

Those are the people who are still talking to their friend on fucking speakerphone in the CVS. Oh, yeah. You know, you're just like, oh, okay. You're a psycho. You are a monster. You have people fucking hanging, curing in your basement, guaranteed.

But the rest of the world is, oh no, I recorded that show. I'm watching, I'm finishing right now. Better Call Saul. I had shelved it because we got into something else at the time. I had the last four episodes of the last season and I was just reminded that a new season's coming out.

So I said to my wife, hey, we should finish that show because we forgot to finish it and we really liked it, but we had gotten distracted. It's still on my DVR. It's over a year old. And I hadn't watched it.

Right. I'm seeing commercials for shit that happened. They're talking about the last few days of Rick Grimes on The Walking Dead. That's four or five seasons ago or something crazy like that.

It's so long ago. Everyone's forgotten about it. But it's funny because I'm watching the commercials, and they're commercials from last year. And so what psychopath is out there watching live television and then also is watching it with their child and has to dive in front of their child's eyes like a hit man.

Yeah. What fucking idiot is out there not vetting that stuff ahead of time? Yeah, but I think like guys like this, what they like but say that they don't like right is that like everything you want is available now sure like it used to be like tv was something you didn't decide about and now entertainment from like rated g to rated not rating that at all yeah that's just press of a button you have access to all of it and I think guys like this can't fucking handle it.

Sure. You know what I mean? It's like somebody takes the fucking governor off of his fucking car. And he's like, I liked it better when you told me how fast I could drive. I can't handle it. Yeah. When I have access to nudity or violence or like whatever things,

because clearly like the problem isn't like, Oh, I, I am forced to watch things I don't want to watch. Like that's a goofy thing to say. Like I don't think anybody, I think like it's like, I don't want to have access. I don't want you to have access to those things.

I don't want those things to even exist. The world should live in such a way that like no boob was ever unencumbered. My purity test is everyone's purity test. Death angel may be moving right now across the planet. I used to have a Death Angel shirt. It was a band

when I was in high school. Death Angel. I sang one song that I recall that was popular and I don't even remember what it was. It's a terrifying thing when the Death Angel walks by your door.

That's right. What? Yeah, I would be if that ever happened. And then you're looking out your peep hole and you're waiting for it to get into the elevator so you don't have to ride the elevator down you're just looking at your watch like damn i'm gonna be late to work but i don't want to ride down with a death angel again super weird jeez oh he stands too close talks about his work

with me i don't care what you do for a living bill it's like wake up in the middle of the night you got a big flashlight underpants walking through the house. God damn it. It's a death angel in here. Fucking show your, you got to tell me. It's like a cop. It's like a cop. This is a time to get right with God.

Repent of your sins. Confess Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. If you have not been baptized, you need to be baptized in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. God's got to give you wet willy. You get my wet willy, you come on in.

I smell your ear when you come on up. When you come up and you get to the gates, you bring him on over here, Peter. I want to smell my spit in his ear. If I don't smell my spit on him. I'm into that kind of thing. Now, fuck out of here. I look at your ear with one of them little light up things the doctor uses. If I don't see my spit on him. I'm into that kind of thing. Now, fuck out of here.

I look at your ear with one of them little light up things the doctor uses. If I don't see some of that spittle running around in there. God didn't get you wet during your life. God's got to make you sploosh. Because if you don't sploosh for God, you can't come in.

That just is the dumbest shit in the world. I'm lubricated for Jesus would be a fucking shit in the world. I'm lubricated for Jesus would be a fucking amazing t-shirt. I'm lubricated for Jesus. God got me wet. Noah's Ark. God got me wet. Jesus Christ.

It was so stupid. It's like when we're talking about the rock tower, when you just stop for 10 seconds and you think about what they're saying right and and you you say to yourself no that's fucking stupid no that's really fucking stupid you gotta fucking spritz me before i can get in here you gotta miss me with your with your spray bottle for me to climb into your fucking afterlife if If I'm not spritzed properly, there's no way you'll let me in.

I have to hear this and I have to believe it. Yeah, that's not enough. Yeah, no. No, you got to take a bath. Because like, Jesus, I mean like- You don't mean it unless you take a bath on it. Look, we started this religion when people were not bathing regularly. All right?

Yeah, that was it. Like a stinky motherfucker showing up to worship. It's just a way to get Bill to take a shower. Look, there's no way you're getting into heaven unless you wash underneath your butt. You got to dig underneath your balls and wash your tank because I can smell it from here, Bill.

Wash your nuts. Jesus Christ. We are not going to get 30 shepherds in this building after working all day without taking a goddamn piss. No shit. We are not bringing you in this building. No shit. Oh, it's such a stupid concept.

The blood of Jesus Christ will protect you. Do not fear. If you're living right for God. Because he's a blood God. And never forget, never forget that he's a blood God. If the blood of Jesus Christ is on you, you have no reason to fear this death angel. This death angel. This death angel.

Because religious people don't die. Yeah. Oh, no. But when they die, even if they die horribly, they get a present. Yeah. They get a big prize. Yeah. Yeah.

Cecil, think right now in your mind of the greatest vacation you've ever taken. Okay. Would you like to go back and do that again? Sure. I bet you would. Would you like to go back and do that again, but first, you have to get horribly, horribly sick. I mean, like, terribly, monstrously, deathly ill, like rattling around smallpox pestilently ill. Is that, but it's worth it, right?

Because you'll get to go on a really good vacation. No? I don't know. What about if I could just give you that vacation? Right. Without any of the strings attached? Yeah. Okay.

I could. Yeah, but you won't. But what about if instead I was like, no. You see, you got to be like the guy in Shawshank Redemption. You had to climb through a river of shit in order to get your freedom.

It's like God sets up all the internships for doctors at the ER. It's like, you got to work a hundred hours in a row. It's got to suck. It's got to suck. You who are opposing the church of God, mocking God,

attacking his servants, you better wise up. Janet Weiss. There's a death angel on the loose right now. This is a death threat. There's a death angel on the loose right now. You better stop picking on me. Jesus Christ.

My death angel is going to show up and death-erize you. Buddy, we're all in a race with the death angel. He's gated on all of us. Fool. So, there's a couple of other stories that came out about Rick

Wiles this week. We're not going to play this, but he does say at one point, Tom, that unsaved Jews, because they reject Jesus Christ as the Son of God, they are going to be basically the Antichrist. Somebody's going to come from that

world and be the Antichrist. His anti-Semitism is so deep. He's like, let me tell you something about the Antichrist. I don't know who he's going to be, but I know he'll be a Jew. Jew, Jew, Jew, Jew, Jew. Exactly.

And you're just like, what the fuck? I can't narrow it down who it's going to be, but I can narrow down what it's going to be. Yeah, right. That's for damn sure. And then we also found out

that he once again received White House press credentials. True news. Yeah. True news. Yeah. True news is like as legitimate as Glory Hole Studios. It absolutely is. It absolutely is.

And our cameras look better. That would be amazing if we could get into the White House. Glory Hole Studios. Glory Hole Studios president. Glory Hole Studios. Glory Hole Studios. Oh my God, would that be amazing? I'll tell you what.

You know what we need to do? We need to get White House press credentials. No. So here's what we need to do. We need to start a GoFundMe. And we need to collect a certain amount of money. Yeah. And then hire a very recently retired, well-respected reporter.

Yes. And then we need to say we are an absolutely 100% legitimate news organization. We have so-and-so as our correspondent.

And then get them press passes that say Glory Hole Studios. We need to do this. We have to do this. It needs to happen. It needs to happen. We need to somehow

figure out a way to hire somebody who just recently retired who is a someone who spends their time on the hill. Hell, we could even poach somebody. We could poach somebody from wherever

if we get enough people to donate. We need a glory hole lobby. We need a lobbying arm of glory hole studios. Oh, I thought you just meant we need a lobby here. I was going to say, yeah, because then you can see who's going to come in. That's better than the surprise factor.

It's way better. Oh, baby, spread the yoke. So this is kind of related to the Rick Wiles Antichrist Jew thing. I thought it'd be fun. This is from BenjaminCorey.com. Could American evangelicals

spot the Antichrist? Here are the biblical predictions. And I just, I really grabbed this to see which one of these would say Jew in it. That's why I grabbed this story. Does it say Jew? Well, let's go through a couple of them.

I don't, you know. Hold on, let me see. Hold on. All right. Control F. Jew? Jew? Zero out of zero?

Zero out of zero. Try Jewish. I know that's not how Control F works. I literally know that that's not how Control F works. It would find Jewish Jew stuff. Yeah, okay. All right. It is a subset of Jew.

It would just find Jew. Yeah, okay. Unless you Jewish Jews out. Yeah. Okay. All right. It is a subset of Jews. It would just find Jew. Yeah. Okay. Unless you're calling them something else. Okay. Look up. Cecil gave me a look. He's like, I'm not even editing that shit out.

Don't you do it. The Antichrist. The Antichrist will be the leader of a nation that is a military superpower with the ability to trample and crush the entire earth. But read the fucking. Okay. So yeah, it's real easy to say that, but then read what it actually says. Let's do that. Let's actually read the

Bible-y stuff and not the interpretation of the Bible. I'm going to get a headache. Here we go. The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces. So read

that again. Read exactly what it said. It says the Antichrist will be the leader of a nation that is a military superpower with the ability to trample and crush the entire earth. That doesn't sound anything like what I just heard. Oh, well, no, but look, okay, I'll help. So the fourth beast, I don't know what the other three are, it's diverse

from the other kingdoms. So that means that it's a military superpower. That's what diverse means. I'm going to come across this. When you do diversity training, what you're doing is military superpower. Yeah. It's all it is. Yeah.

It's like Spetsnaz training. It's the same thing. All right. Let's pick a different one. Maybe that was not. Yeah. Maybe that's not a good one, Tom.

Yeah. Maybe. The Antichrist would be a man who was exceptionally arrogant and would be known for giving boastful speeches. And then this one just has... This one is. I could hear his boastful speech. Okay, so tell me what

world leader, especially let's use our world leader. Okay, yeah. Which president did not in January boast? Because January is the State of the Union or early February. So when what president came up there and said,

sorry guys, I fucked up. I'm real sorry. I fucked everything up. I'm really a bad president. I shouldn't be here. I'm terrible at this. Man, I'm really bad at this job. No, every single one of them is saying,

this is up, this is up. I do this. I did that. I'm awesome. Fucking, someone should be sucking my dick under this podium right now. This should be like Police Academy 1. I should totally be that guy who's getting raped by a hooker in front of everybody. That should be me right now.

Instead, that's exactly what it is. It's always self-fallatio. Every one of them is boastful because that's what politicians do. Right. Well, I mean, that's like a requirement of the job if you're going to give a speech called, here's what we accomplished.

Yeah, right. Right? I feel like there was even a banner at one point. I could misremember. Was there a mission that they were working on? Did they ever finish it? I don't remember. I don't know.

Nope. This one, Revelation 13, 1. I saw a beast coming out of the sea with 10 horns and seven heads, which stood for seven hills. And they're saying that the Antichrist will come from among seven tall hills

that each act as a head. And they're talking about the Trump Towers being those seven tall hills, which are not hills. It's just so, it's whatever you want it to be. It's whatever you want. Yeah. It's seeing what, it's seeing anything. It's all garbage. Yes. It's fucking utter and complete nonsense. And the fact that someone, and read through, if you get a chance, we'll post the link to this, read through some of these, read through some of the actual passages from Revelation and they're garbage.

Revelation is the dumbest thing we've ever read. Yeah, they're absolute garbage. They don't mean anything. But even the interpretations, when you start reading this person's interpretations, this could mean anybody. You could fit anybody because all you're doing is picking things that kind of fit. And you're also wildly interpreting what the actual text says. Yeah. The text doesn't mean anything, which is the problem. Yeah. The text is full of like, oh, if I'm going to interpret a hill to mean a skyscraper,

to mean a building, to mean a tower, like hill could like, if you're deciding every fucking thing as a metaphor, then and you get to decide what the metaphor stands for because there's no fucking answer key. Yeah. What the fuck? It's pointless. This revelation is less meaningful to read

than fucking David Icke's biggest secret. Yeah, absolutely. Hi, everyone. This next clip comes from our live stream from earlier this week. If you want to check out our live streams make sure you're tuning in to either twitch mixer facebook youtube and twitter i mean periscope every thursday when we're uh doing our live streams around 9 p.m central here we go guys

we're gonna keep playing this shrieking lady. Tell me if it's too quiet, though, okay, everyone? Revelation will come forth and he will emerge an incredible witness and mouthpiece for my glory. Is this all just mouthpiece for my glory? Wait a minute. I've been, you know, you've got to tip a little extra for the mouthpiece for the glory. It's a whole...

We have one here at the studio. Mouthpiece for the glory. Is she saying this is all stuff God told her about Trump? I can't hear anything except for the shrieking thing in the background. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I think that it is. Every time these guys say that, I'm like, what exactly is the purpose of that?

Like, why would you just like tell Trump himself? Yeah. Right. Like, why do you have to like tell somebody? What? Like, right? Like, why do you have to, like, tell somebody? What? Like, are you like... And why do you have to send him a coded message? Right.

against those praying for him, and against your people, Father God. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, as you sent the captain of the army of the Lord of hosts to lead Joshua. Wait a minute, the captain of the army of the what now? What did she just, the captain of the army of the word of the host of the Lord? Of the Lord? What did she just... The captain of the army of the word of the host of the Lord? Of the Lord of hosts.

Let's listen to it again. That's so many titles. There we go. That is a lot. That's like more titles than like... How does that even fit on like a business card?

Okay, here we go. Jesus Christ, as you sent the captain of the army of the Lord of hosts to lead Joshua into Jericho. And it's Monday night spiritual smackdown, hosts to lead Joshua into Jericho. And it's Monday night

spiritual smackdown, so it's probably Chris Jericho. He asked that you send, Father God, the captain of the army of the Lord of hosts to lead that. The captain of the army of the Lord of hosts just sounds like a really, really, really cool place to go have a drink

because he's going to have good hospitality. He's the Lord of hosts. He's the Lord of hosts. He's not just a host. He's the Lord of hosts. Your drink is never half empty. There's hors d'oeuvres, hot, cold hors d'oeuvres constantly at your beck and call. God damn.

When you sit down, the food is hot. You don't have to fucking put your coat on someone's bed. There's a hook for it. Right? It's not a shoe house. You don't walk around. You don't throw to fucking put your coat on someone's bed like there's a hook for it right it's not a shoe house but there's not you don't walk around you don't throw where are you gonna take your fucking shoes off fuck shoe don't make me do that to somebody because i'm inflicting something on you that you don't want that i will wear my shoes all around you invited me over you invited my shoes too we're both coming here we go i'll step on

your dog motherfucker the fuck out of here next time i go to a shoe house i'm gonna go in their closet and take their nicest shoes the next time i go to a shoe house i'm only gonna half put my pull my shoe off and then kick it like i'm in a competition across the room it's like a shoe kicking competition you ever seen those at the fairs or whatever a shoe kicking competition. You ever seen those at the fairs or whatever? What? A shoe kicking competition? So hillbillies when they get together will do this thing. Wait, are you being serious right now? I'm being dead serious. They'll do this thing where they will half take their shoe off. So it's

just the heel is out and it's just on the toe portion of the shoe and they will all stand in a line and then one will try to kick it farther than the other person. Are you fucking serious? It's like a sack race. Yeah, you've seen a sack race before, right? Where the three-legged race or the sack race, you've seen these before.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's like one of those types of competitions that you would do at a family picnic or something. And they kick the shoe as far as they can. And the one who kicks it the farthest wins the golden egg or whatever. Oh, we are 100% doing that next time I go to a shoe house. I don't care if it goes through a window. I'm going to kick it at their kid. Are you kidding me?

My kids already do that when they walk in the door. Exactly, yeah. Woohoo! It's a shoe kicking contest. China has total respect for Donald Trump's very, very large brain. They call her Pocahontas. I am the chosen one. You are fake news.

Okay. I am the least racist person. Look at my African-American over here. Look at him. It's a camera. Grab him by the pussy. Stop it. So this week in Trump, the impeachment process is still continuing.

Yep. We have a couple of stories we want to talk about. One is just the way Dershowitz is arguing right now about whether or not Trump should be found guilty of these things and removed from office. And the other one is about the sort of league of people that we thought would maybe ask for Senate, for ask for the court to call witnesses. There's four or five swing state Republicans

who were on the fence. Romney still hasn't changed his mind, but it seems like all the other ones have. So they have circled the wagons. Initially, this week, there was a moment where Mitch McConnell said, well, I don't know that we're actually going to have all the votes. And now he does.

So great. Thanks. You knew he was going to get the votes. Yeah, and that's the thing is I knew right then, and I don't feel like there's been any surprises at all in this entire process, but there has been a couple things that happened, especially more recently.

I want to talk first, before we go on to the Dershowitz thing, I do want to talk about they're asking questions now. So they're sending questions up and then the question gets asked by the chief justice and then someone from one of the teams responds.

There's a question to the defense. There's a question to the prosecution. They go back and forth. And the chief justice was asked a question by Senator Collins that said, well, what's an actual way that we could have investigated the Bidens, right well, what's an actual way that we could have investigated the Bidens, right? Because what's a real way? Because the president was going to be, no matter

what, was going to benefit from something like this. So what's a way we could have done it? And at first I read that and I thought, oh, that's an interesting question. And then I realized that it's a debunked conspiracy theory. That's like saying, what's a good way that we could storm Comet Pizza? What's a good way that we could storm that? Because I don't want to hurt anybody, but I definitely want to storm it. It's a dumb thing to say because it's already been debunked. You already have the full force of the United States government that's already looked into it, along with many news outlets that looked into it and said, there's nothing there. International agencies. There's nothing there. Yeah. And that, except for nepotism probably, right? Some, some form of preferential

treatment because of his father, which is fucking just true. Right. But I feel like, like Trump obviously cannot hammer Biden on that issue. I know. Right. Like that would not. No, you can't do it. Right. Because he does it all the time. It's so shocking to me that everybody's looking around thinking, oh, well, gosh, how could he get preferential treatment? He's born that way. Yeah, right. He was the vice president.

How could he get preferential treatment? They get him all the time. Why is your son? Why is your son-in-law part of the government? Why is your daughter part of the government? Preferential treatment, dumbass. It's always look at the other guy, don't look at me. But Schiff actually did answer this question.

And he said, well, he could have done it through the government, could have done it in a conjunction. The difference here is that he said he just wanted the appearance of an investigation. Yeah, he wanted the announcement. He didn't even want the investigation, he didn't even care about it. Right. So when you're asking this disingenuous question of, oh, how could we have actually investigated? He wasn't prepared to actually investigate it anyway.

No, no. All that he was trying to get was an announcement of an investigation for political gain. And like, the thing that is fucking astonishing is like, we're at a place in American history where we're like, you know what I don't want to do? I don't want to get to the truth. I don't want to hear more witnesses.

I don't want, wait, you have a whole side of people that are like, well, you know, let's not call any witnesses. And then somehow there's a segment of the public that's like, yes, let's not get, like, let's not get more information about this.

Let's not hear more of it. I'm blown away by it. I'm blown away by it. If your side is innocent, if there's nothing there, then a full investigation could only benefit you. Yeah. Right? Yeah. It could only benefit you because you just keep finding nothing.

benefit you because you just keep finding nothing. Like if you were to like investigate me for mail fraud, like no amount of witnesses you call are going to give me any cause for concern. All you're going to do is continue to exonerate me more deeply. Right. So like if there's nothing there and they keep saying there's nothing there, but now they're not even saying that. Yeah. Now they've shifted from it never happened. Now they've shifted to a new narrative, which is like, we don't need to call witnesses. We'll concede that it happened, but we'll just say it doesn't matter that it

happened. Doesn't matter. Yeah, that's what they're saying now. That's what Dershowitz is saying now. Yeah. Doesn't matter. But like even the change in narrative should be a scandal. It's just that with this administration, like changing your narrative doesn't matter. It doesn't have, nothing has any effect.

There's none of it makes any fucking difference. 100% Teflon. They were right. They're right. He's absolutely Teflon. Nothing sticks. Lev Parnas this week released a tape of him and Trump and a bunch of other people talking

about the situation in the Ukraine. And he said, she's out there saying you're going to be impeached. And Trump said, get rid of her. So over hearsay, over what one person said, he said, get rid of a United States ambassador. Get rid of her. Fire her. And a year later, she was fired for no reason, without any cause. And that's like, that is a, that is a, like Trump has said,

I don't even know who that person is. Yeah. Like he, like he lies so much. Like everything, all of these things, all these, what we think of is like, our standard for scandal, Cecil, has changed so much. Yeah.

Our standard for like what we get upset about has like changed so much. I worry it's never going to change back. I worry that like we're at a place where we're having a process, an impeachment process, and we're saying like, you know what, let's not find out what's true. Let's argue about the merit of finding out what's true. And let's argue about the merit of finding out what's true or not. That's what this is. That's literally the conversations that are taking place. And people on the street are like, yeah, let's not find out what's true. Like people on the street, Republicans support the Republican position. It's so

divided. It's so partisan. You know, what's interesting was today I saw something from Schiff and he had said that while they were arguing things in the Senate today to impeach the president because he's been obstructing justice by not allowing people to be subpoenaed, they were hearing in another court somewhere, the Justice Department was talking to a judge and the judge had said, well, what's the remedy to stop the White House from saying, from blocking subpoenas? What's the remedy? And the Justice Department argued it was impeachment. And he said, I literally cannot believe that right today they argued that this is what,

this is what the remedy is, what we're doing right now. And then they still have a whole group of lawyers who are saying that's not what should happen. The trouble is every trouble, right? But like, man, if this happens, if this goes through, if this legal precedent gets set, and I think that it's going to, right? But like, man, if this happens, if this goes through, if this legal precedent gets set, and I think that it's going to, right? Yeah.

What we have basically done is we have ceded control completely to the executive. We have a king. We have a king now. That is 100% what happened. Change the name. Change the name because we have a king now. And the king can decide literally almost anything.

They can do anything in that office as long as they can justify even the tiniest amount is, because that's their argument, is that if there's any amount that is done for the people, then the president can do it. That was kind of what they sort of started to argue this week. I saw a piece of it, and it's this weird sort of back,

reverse categorical imperative that they're doing. It's very strange. But they're saying as long as there's a tiny amount that's for the people, you can't prove that it's self-interest. And so that's what they were trying to believes that is in the country's best interest for them to be in charge yeah then anything they do to further their aim of solidifying control is is a public good yep yep and therefore any thing that they do like any quid pro quo or anything that that benefits their political campaign in because in their mind, it benefits the American people, whether it does in actuality or not. This is like the cop defensive,

I felt afraid. You didn't have a gun. I shot you, but you felt afraid. My feelings matter more than the truth. We're handing over all of the power to the goddamn executive branch. We're breaking the part of the constitution that gives Congress the ability to hold accountable and act as a checks and balance. Yeah. By the same logic, we literally, Nixon would have done nothing wrong. By this same logic, Nixon would not be in trouble. Yeah. Watergate would not and should not be a scandal. Shouldn't be a scandal. That's now the argument, right? Is that Watergate was fine. Right. Fucking hell, man. And it can be, like, I think you're

right about precedent. It's going to be a very, once this gets thrown out, because they're not going to, they've already sort of said that they're not going to choose to call witnesses. Right. Even though Bolton's book comes out this week and says that he heard the president say, it doesn't even get entered

into the record. So even though that's, that's out there of someone very close to the president claiming this is true, and you could ask them that under oath, which would be the teeth that you would need to cause them to tell the truth or not. Right. He could just be saying it to sell books, but you know, he's starting up podcast trouble or whatever. Talking shit to start podcast trouble. But he could totally be lying about it. All you'd need to do is call him up to make him say whether or not he's lying about it. Then you have cause. But instead, it's just, oh, we're just not going to pay attention to it.

Well, and the senators are not allowed by law to consider it because it's not testimony. Yep, yep. So if they don't enter into record, and like fucking McConnell is the biggest fucking liar. McConnell and Graham are such fucking piece of shit liars because they went out and they said like look if he's got

something to say why doesn't he hold a press conference and just say it that's a bullshit disingenuous thing to say if he holds a press conference and says it

it has no more effect than writing it on a book or writing it on his fucking junk and fucking someone it doesn't matter unless he testifies to it during the Super Bowl with it on his ass junk and fucking someone with it. Yeah, he could. It doesn't matter unless he testifies to it. during the Super Bowl

with it on his ass and it doesn't matter. Like, unless it is testimony, it does not matter. Yeah. So we want to thank our patrons. Of course,

We got a bunch of messages this week. We want to talk about a few of them. We got a message from Suzanne and Suzanne told

us about her mother who had cancer. She happened to be Swedish. I guess the daily cost of the cancer treatment would have been $130 a day or $47.5 thousand a year but instead in Sweden it costs $245 for the whole year yeah it's similar to what it would cost in America it's like the same it's pretty much the same system I don't know which is better

I guess what I'm saying Cecil is I'm not sure which is better I feel like I know exactly which is better you know what's interesting I's, what's interesting. I heard, I don't remember if it was from a Senate inquiry or something, but someone was talking about, you know how like Buttigieg and a couple other people are saying,

you know what we need is we need a public option. That's not, that's Medicare, but then we also need our current private insurance. And public option would pull from the insurance companies, the sickest people who can't get insurance, right? Those sick people who can't get insurance or that who pay really high premiums and people that are poor, which also leads to poor health outcomes constantly.

Sure. So the health insurance companies would be making tons of money off of people because there wouldn't be that low end of the pool, that low end of the pool where, because that's what insurance does is normalizes that line, right? It says, here's the most healthy among you will pay for the most sickest in this insurance plan. And unless everybody's on the same plan and everybody jumps ship,

all the sickest jump ship to the government option, then the government's paying for all the sickest or a lot of the sickest, disproportionately more of the sickest people. And the health insurance companies get away with paying for fewer sick people. That's crazy. I wonder how that would work though. If like you're getting your insurance from your employer, your insurance doesn't change based on your like health. Right. Like everybody pays the same amount. Right. But there's a bunch of people

uninsured. Uninsured people would all push out. They'd all push out. Yeah. Yeah. I do wonder, like, what would be the effect of that? Yeah. I mean, when they asked, they asked the guy who was sort of prognosticating about the future of health insurance. Yeah, it's interesting. And he said it would be a bad idea. It sounds like a terrible idea. He says it would be

a terrible idea. I mean, it makes sense why it would be a bad idea. He said it would not be great. Yeah. Because then they would be self-selecting out all the healthy people and basically just making money off of those healthy people. Well, I can't even imagine that the insurance industry wouldn't do something too to make that more

of a thing. Right. So, Best Candy, Brandon sent a message and said, hey, just so you know, FiveThirtyEight ran an internet poll on the best Halloween candy with 8,700 responses. Reese's Peanut Butter Cups came out number one out of 86

with an 84% win rate on head-to-head of other candies. That's pretty impressive. And it makes sense because Reese's is a solid awesome, it's an awesome, awesome. It's never, you're never disappointed by it.

I know people in other countries say, our chocolate is shit and all that stuff. And it's like, yeah, you guys have more slavery. Awesome. It's never, you're never disappointed by it. I know people, I know people in other countries say, our chocolate is shit and all that stuff. And it's like, yeah, you guys have more slavery. Great. But yeah, and I get that. I get, I get that. One, I know for sure our chocolate isn't up to the standards of other places,

but I will say a Reese's cup is just a salad. It's a good, it's a good, it's a good candy that you can get locally. I've also, we get weird messages where people say we don't know what we're talking about. We've never had good chocolate before. I was a pastry chef. I've had chocolate couverture. I've made my,

I've tempered my own chocolate. I have had chocolate before. You don't know where I've been, Lou. Fuck you. So we get weird messages like very hostile messages sometimes where people are weirdly aggressive about how stupid we are. We're talking about what you get at a grocery store, guys.

You can't go in and buy some weird, like Belgian chocolate there. We just don't carry it. Yeah, it's not like we're saying, what is the best chocolate you've ever had? No. And then I'm answering with a Hershey's Special Dark. No, God, no.

If I said that and you beat me to death with a Hershey's Special Dark, I would have that No. And then I'm answering with a Hershey's Special Dark. No, God, no. If I said that and you beat me to death with a Hershey's Special Dark, I would have that coming. That would be on me. I will say, best chocolate I've ever had was a pastry chef that you and I knew, a guy named Matt. He used to make ganache-filled chocolates and the chocolate he used was

a French chocolate called Calibo and that's the chocolate couverture, which is a much more, and I don't know if I'm pronouncing that correctly. Somebody's going to say it's Coviture or whatever. I don't know. But anyway, but anyway, it's, it's actually what, what you would make a higher quality chocolate bar out of when you buy a chocolate bar in a store or you buy chocolate chips, those are not chocolate Covure. Chocolate couverture has a higher content of cocoa beans in it and also a higher content of cocoa butter.

And so when you make, when you temper it, you make amazing chocolate out of it. And the best chocolate I've ever had was that. By far. It was amazing. I mean, it's unbelievable the stuff he could do with that.

And it was a French chocolate. Calibo was the chocolate that he would use. That shit, like I've been searching my whole life. And, like, that shit is crazy good. I want to buy some, because you can get it on the internet, and I hear that you can temper chocolate pretty easily with a sous vide.

I have heard the same thing. So, you bring it up to temperature, a certain temperature, because the way you temper chocolate is you bring it up to a, you melt it completely, and if you were going to do it by hand, you would melt it at a higher temperature, not too high because you don't want to burn it, but you would put it in a bain-marie or a steam bath and you would melt it down. And then you would add pieces of chocolate to the melted chocolate to bring that temperature down and stir it. And then once it went down and everything was melted and it was past the point,

then you would bring it up just a touch so you could then use it. Because you have to bring it up and down and it sort of aligns things in it that make it so that it gets that snap and that shine. But from what I hear, you can just put it in a bag, seal it, bring it up to temperature, and then throw in ice water into your sous vide and set it for a certain temperature and it will bring it exactly to that temperature again. Smart, yeah. And then you could just basically cut the bag end and squeeze it where you need it. It's amazing.

That's awesome. So yeah, you could sous vide, supposedly sous vide chocolate. Got a message from Natalie. She wants us to post, and we will on this week's show notes, the cold open for this week's Saturday Night Live. They mentioned one of our sponsors.

They do, it's so funny. It's really great. It's great. It's really great. Tom, we got a message from Judy who wanted to tell us about some vaccine stuff. Yeah, so Judy wanted to talk about non-responders. She says specifically that herself and her mother

don't make antibodies to some vaccines. They thought between two and three percent of people in the population fall in that group. So, you know, one of the most important things about vaccines is the herd immunity issue. There are lots of people who, for one reason or another, either cannot get vaccines or for whom the vaccines are not effective. Vaccines are not a magic bullet. Right. So like they're useful from a public health standpoint. Exactly. More so than they are from a personal health standpoint. Absolutely. Yeah. Yeah. No, the herd immunity is absolutely imperative. And if you have the ability to get the vaccine, you should get the fucking vaccine.

Like it's a social good. It's a social good. Yeah. So, Tom, we got a comment, and you wanted to read part of it. This was on our latest episode, so someone posted this, Tom. This is a comment on our website. We are not going to improve this comment, but Tom is going to read part of it. Yeah, I just thought this was really insightful.

So, specifically, they say, as for the stage that pontoons skipped Bar Yapapura, although Polly Aaron next, whoever electrocuted a somersault opposite the slab to auto through a through affectation during the vague as well as her fondness

by refractory mock refractory. Did I just have a stroke? I love bots that just put shit on there. It's just random shit too. It is the most delightfully random. Although it's circumnavigated one of the briefest pontoons in a dismal Luanda.

So great. So good. All right. Someone on the live stream tonight, we talked about Mitch McConnell. So good. And how someone should Photoshop a picture of him in a certain,

across with a certain character. Go listen to the live stream and you'll hear it if you're a patron you already got the feed for the live stream but if and it's on your podcast feed but if you want to go check out the live stream from last week you can check out our live streams we do live streams every Thursday and sometimes they

We are going to be recording a vulgarity for charity next week. So that's going to be on this next

week's show. Thomas and Andrew will be joining us for that vulgarity for charity from the Opening Arguments podcast. Thomas also does a myriad of other shows, Serious Inquiries Only and Philosophers in Space. I think I don't know if there's like two or three other shows. Do you have a parenting show? I don't even know.

And then Andrew, of course, from Opening Arguments, they'll be joining us next week. So, so tune in next week for that. And then we will have a short show that we have to record a little bit early.
