Starting point is 00:00:03 My name is Charlie Kirk. I run the largest pro-American student organization in the country fighting for the future of our republic. My call is to fight evil and to proclaim truth. If the most important thing for you is just feeling good, you're going to end up miserable. But if the most important thing is doing good, you will end up purposeful. College is a scam, everybody. You've got to stop sending your kids to college. You should get married as young as possible and have as many kids as possible. Go start a turning point USA college chapter. Go start a turning point you would say high school chapter.
Starting point is 00:00:35 Go find out how your church can get involved. Sign up and become an activist. I gave my life to the Lord in fifth grade. Most important decision I ever made in my life and I encourage you to do the same. Here I am. Lord, use me. Buckle up, everybody. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:00:52 The Charlie Kirk Show is proudly sponsored by Preserve Gold, the leading gold and silver experts and the only precious metals company I recommend to my family, friends, and viewers. All right, welcome to Thought Crime Thursday. We are, I got my Jack. See, I forgot my jacket rule, and then I, so I put on. He keeps forgetting the jacket rule. You can't defy the jacket rule.
Starting point is 00:01:20 I get cold in the studio. They have it turned down to like 61 for the equipment here. Anyways, welcome to Thought Crime. Oh, is it so cold for you. I'm totally, I do not do well with cold. I'm a brown-skinned. You don't want to catch Andrew? Southern European.
Starting point is 00:01:35 quarter Mexican. He doesn't have his jack, jack, and hasn't had his dind yet. So we got to get into some breaking news here because I'll be honest with you in the audience. I'm pretty upset. Pretty pissed off, I think, is a good way to say it. We had a shooting in West Bloomfield, Michigan, about 20 miles down the road from Dearborn, Michigan, which, as many of you know, is the epicenter for the Islamification of the country. And it looks like new intel has come in.
Starting point is 00:02:05 Bill Malusian tweeted out. It looks like we have that at 24 that this person appears to be the car is registered to a Lebanese naturalized U.S. citizen. So assuming that it wasn't a carjacking or a stolen car, it's safe to assume that this would be a naturalized U.S. citizen that committed this crime. We'll wait for those details to come in. But even if that turns out to not be the case, we have another shooting in Virginia. This one's even more egregious on some level. It's a naturalized citizen from Sierra Leone. Again, when I say naturalized, that means that they were... It means we had this person here and we thought this person is awesome.
Starting point is 00:02:46 We should let them in. We should give them the right to live in America forever. We should let them vote. And nothing can make them leave. They should have the right to vote, the right to all of our welfare programs. Correct. This is the type of person we want in America. This person was known by the FBI.
Starting point is 00:03:02 This person had been radical. by ISIS had traveled abroad multiple times. In 2016, he was prosecuted, right, Blake? 2016? Yes, he was imprisoned. Imprised. And we let him back out on the streets for some reason. And because he was a naturalized citizen.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Yeah, because he's a naturalized citizen. But add that just to this month. And I'm going to read from a tweet from Will Kane here, said this month, Austin Shooter. You remember that one? Austin radicalized, said, property of Allah. Property of Allah. or Islam, property of Islam. Shouted Alu Akbar, Austin shooter,
Starting point is 00:03:38 naturalized citizen. The OD shooter, naturalized citizens. The New York City teen bombers, thankfully it did not go off. Children of naturalized citizen. And now the Michigan synagogue attack naturalized citizen. We are giving full citizenship rights in this country to people who hate us and want you dead.
Starting point is 00:03:58 We have a legal immigration problem in this country. And today shines a very bright spotlight on this. horrible reality that we've created ourselves. So we need to start there. Blake, Jack, thoughts. Well, and I want to, I want to go in because the, the one in Michigan, I believe it was also a car ramming, right? So it was a, and I think there was a preschool that was on the premises as well.
Starting point is 00:04:25 And so it was a car ramming. And then not all the details are exactly out on that just yet because this is breaking news, but it was a car ramming and then, you know, an attempted to shooting as well, I think is what we saw and that the shooter. So, yeah, car ramming and the shooting incident has now been killed. Bill Malugin says something about the corpse actually being on fire. So I think that I'm sure there's going to be an investigation into whether or not explosives were used in that case. Yeah, well, they're actually still clearing the scene as far as we're aware that because they're looking for incendiary devices. or bombs. Yeah, exactly. We're in the middle of it. Similar to the, you know, whether they're explosive, similar to the individuals in New York City. And, you know, what's crazy about those two
Starting point is 00:05:14 from New York, that attempted bombing was, you know, I was looking at this, that town where they grew up in, apparently, that Newtown PA area that's not far at all from where I grew up, where I'm from, the only difference is that Newtown PA is one of the, I mean, they lived in the lap of luxury. It's one of the nicest towns in the United States. The idea that there could be an ISIS cell there is just, it's jarring. My whole family is talking about this. They went in and there was a suspicious, you know, there were suspicious items found in a storage locker that they had that the SWAT team and bomb squad had to go in. and they were, I think it was a material, a residue, they say that they were,
Starting point is 00:05:59 was a potential explosive. What they call it, Jack? Daughter of Satan or something like that? Well, it was TATP, which is a very common but also powerful explosive that can be made in home. So TFTP is a precursor and an explosive that you would see in the Middle East, in, you know, ISIS, bombings, et cetera. So, and it's not, by the way, something that you would find, that you would, you know, just go on YouTube and.
Starting point is 00:06:25 you know, watch, you know, a tutorial on. It's something that's actually quite serious. And so real questions as to whether or not they were others involved or bomb makers involved that were not, that were not caught at the scene. And I just want to say again about this town, Newtown PA, I mean, this thing, it's, it's an idyllic town. There, it's, it's, you know, very luxurious. It is, they have a great downtown. It's kind of like, I had this tweet that went pretty viral. I said, this is like, you know, if you're not from PA and you don't understand, it's like the town out of Gilmore Girls. Okay. It's like the town out of Gilmore Girls. It is just a sleepy, nice suburb where, with, you know, it's absolutely gorgeous. The people there are very affluent. And the idea that an ISIS
Starting point is 00:07:09 cell could be operating out of there is shocking to anyone in the area. But at the same time, Andrew, to your point, when we look at the higher percentage of farmborn individuals that now reside in so many of these places, obviously Dearborn being one of the hot, of all the hotspots for that in terms of Middle Eastern migration, you know, should we really, should we really be surprised? And look, I know the FBI has been out saying we're tracking, you know, and Cash Patel over there is doing a great job saying, hey, we're tracking these things. But at the end of the day, what you've done is you've imported foreign populations that in many cases are going to be inherently hostile, inherently hostile to your way of life, inherently hostile to your
Starting point is 00:07:51 value is inherently hostile to your society and the only way that this can be dealt with is mass deportations and this is something that charlie right and we all know this that charlie was talking about this in the day his last days and weeks on the planet this is exactly what he was talking about no so what we're i mean yeah mass deportations but we're talking about a whole different thing here we're talking about the fact that every year in fiscal year 2023 we issued 1.17 million green cards in fiscal year 2024 24 preliminary data shows Those 980,000 green cards were issued through the first three quarters. We're talking about legal immigration.
Starting point is 00:08:28 These are people that have been brought here that, as Blake said, we did this to ourselves. We chose to bestow upon them the full rights and privileges of United States citizenship. And they turned the gun on us. And they're trying to kill Americans. And I'm sick of it. I don't know when we're ever going to wake up from this idiocy and actually start saying, oh, I don't know. Maybe we shouldn't be importing people that hate us.
Starting point is 00:08:49 Maybe we shouldn't be importing people that have a loyalty to something, some religion, some country, other than our own. Because guess what? I was born in this country. I'm going to die in this country. My kids were born in this country. They're going to die in this country. We love this country first. I'm so sick and tired of bestowing the rights and privileges of an American citizen upon people that don't give a crap about it or their children that grew up to not give a crap about it. What if the reason you feel a little off some days has more to do with what's missing than what you're adding? We talk a lot about cutting things out of our diets, sugar, processed foods, junk, but what about what we're not getting enough of? Whole foods contain phytonutrients, natural plant compounds your body uses every day to function properly. And let's be honest, most of us aren't eating 10 servings of produce today. I know I'm not. That's why I use balance of nature.
Starting point is 00:09:46 cold process helps stabilize those phytonutrients so you're getting the benefit of real fruits and vegetables in capsule form i also love their whole health system it's trademarked whole health system fruits and veggies plus fiber and spice 47 ingredients of whole food nutrition and their freeze dried snacks are a great option too if you're ready to fight the good fight go to balance of nature dot com to subscribe and save today join hundreds of thousands of customers in one simple routine that's changing the world that's balance of nature.com well and and Andrew in in in Europe where they're already also dealing with this issue they do have something that they view as a new way forward and it's called remigration and president Trump's tweeted this president Trump has uh has endorsed this in
Starting point is 00:10:36 many cases he you know we do hear kind of occasionally different signals out of the white house over what is going to be prioritized at any given time axios of course had a story about that this week but president trump has said many times that he believe specifically by the way uh remigration and reverse migration and i'll tell you exactly the last time he said it was thanksgiving when on last thanksgiving so just what you know four months ago here we had the shooting of two national members, one male, one female, the female who was killed on the scene. And the male was obviously just at the state of the union a couple weeks ago. And those were done by Afghan migrants who, again, we're here legally. And President Trump said, no, reverse migration, remigrate them all.
Starting point is 00:11:27 Perfectly fine with that. Totally fine with that. It's got to become a priority. And, you know, I got into it with a certain senator earlier today. And for saying specifically this, that we need to take this threat seriously. We need to take it seriously. It need to become one of the highest priorities in the United States. There's no question about it. And little did I know that, you know, just on the same day that that happened, that there would be two more Muslim migrant attacks. Blake? I think there will be more. There will probably be another one by tomorrow. I think we're getting, we're getting a lot of, we're seeing the consequences of throwing open America to basically the entire planet and saying everyone deserves to be in America.
Starting point is 00:12:10 No one should ever be forced to leave America. There should be no penalties for attacking Americans. Again, today Markson, I think the first time we've had a repeat offender on literal terrorism. The guy who tries- So, Blake, can you walk through that case? What was the, we know there was a previous case? It seems that in 2016, I haven't read all the details. We'll get those soon enough.
Starting point is 00:12:32 But it seems that he supported ISIS in 2016. so they arrested him. They imprisoned him. He received, I think 12 years, was let out after about eight. So he gets out in 2024. And because in our great wisdom, we made him a naturalized U.S. citizen and our lawmakers, in their great wisdom,
Starting point is 00:12:50 do not allow us to denaturalize citizens for crimes like joining foreign terrorist groups that want to murder Americans. He just got out and they stopped monitoring him. And he thought, okay, well, you know, first time didn't work out, but second time's a charm. So he got a gun and he went
Starting point is 00:13:04 and started shooting up old. dominion and thankfully now he is dead so he cannot offend a third time though i'm sure we'd find a way to do that if if he were still with us and i suspect this won't be the last time because we pathologically want to let in people who will attack and kill us uh zuzu's pedals by the way donated in a rumble rant it feels like even our legal immigration system is designed to kill americans yes yes it is zuzu that is clearly the case uh i think one of the most enraised things to me is there are so many obvious problems and flaws in our immigration system that, I mean, at a minimum, Republicans could whip up a short bill with 10 different items on it and just vote on it and force Democrats to vote against it.
Starting point is 00:13:50 I would include things like you get denaturalized. If you join a terrorist group, I would include things like you can't get a green card for a child bride. Did you know you're allowed to do that in America? You can you can bring in a child bride to marry you? That happens. It happens regularly. Like there's several cases of you. year. A bunches and things. Maybe you can't get a green card for someone who's your first cousin, even if it's legal. This is great. But like, I'm going to play a clip for you here about this is the Virginia shooting. This guy was like known by the FBI. Okay? Because like we can't even get to the point where we're getting known threats off the streets, let alone, you know, passing immigration reform through our stupid Congress. Cut 16.
Starting point is 00:14:33 With two little details that we know about the shooting so far, how are we able to confirm that this or is a little bit of an act of terrorism? How it was an act of terrorism? I can tell you that we have confirmed reports that prior to him conducting this act of terrorism, he shouted, or stated, Al-Aqvar. And he was formerly a subject of a FBI investigation in material supporting terrorism. So he was walking free. And more will because our illustrious leaders just choose to let it happen. Here's something I tweeted as well that there's a, you know, there's a tendency, I think, for a lot of people to call the, say, oh, this is a sleeper cell and then create this picture that,
Starting point is 00:15:24 oh, they, you know, they're directly working for Iran or the IRGC and they've been contacted by Iran in, in some way to, you know, press the trigger and activate the, you know, the cell. It's got that like that old Claire Dane's Homeland Show kind of thing. But that's in reality, that's not really what it's like. In reality, in many cases, these are self-radicalized individuals. They are people who they are, you know, supportive of ISIS for their own means. And they're, again, just part of a hostile population that we've allowed into our country because I think Zuzu's Pedals is right, because we,
Starting point is 00:16:02 We have an immigration system that is designed to kill Americans. The point of a system is what it does. And so whether it's killing you through what they're doing in terms of depressing wages and putting pressure on our housing market and wreaking havoc on us economically or in this case, literally and actually directly picking up guns and killing us, it almost seems like that's exactly what's been happening over and over and over. So no, I don't think this is just some like, Like, oh, we're, you know, we've got the call from the new Ayatollah who like nobody can see
Starting point is 00:16:38 anyway. Like he hasn't even like put any actual audio out yet or anything. It's like Schrodinger's Ayatola. But no, it's not like that. It's just they want to do this. And there's Ryan Grimm who, you know, is is well sourced and has done a lot of reporting in this area says that the guy who was from Lebanon that apparently his family lived in one of these villages or one of these towns that was under attack.
Starting point is 00:17:02 that was in, you know, caught up in some of the bombings with Hezbollah. And so he lost family members. And, you know, it may have been a motivation for his attack on this synagogue and preschool that, you know, you took out my family. You took out my kids. I'm going to take out your kids or something like that. Again, if, you know, if that reporting is to be believed. But again, these are the types of blowback problems that you get into when you embark on the invade the world, invite the world. invite the world policy
Starting point is 00:17:33 and that's exactly what Charlie would talk about over and over. All right guys. We had to hit it. Topic number two, should we hit ourselves in the face with hammers? It would be more intelligent than our immigration system. So yeah, sure, why not?
Starting point is 00:17:47 All right, yeah. So, of course, as I'm sure anyone under the age of probably 25 knows, the reason you would want to hit yourself in the face with a hammer is so that you can look smacks. Do you know what that is? Andrew? I do know what looks maxing is. Ooh, do you look smacks? No. You don't?
Starting point is 00:18:07 No, can't you tell? I don't know. I mean, it's pretty worrisome. Blake tried to looks max once, but it didn't take. Oh, I know, I'm... What do you think the beard is about? The beard is literally looks maxing. No, but the problem is, is I'm getting, I'm getting bald mugged and so you've got jester gooning and bald mauging and I refuse to say that word. You're going to have to say it. You're going to have to say it. You're going to say it.
Starting point is 00:18:29 No, that's the jackism. Say it now. I saw Jackism. I saw it. I saw Jack's say it on a show the other day and uh, I was like I'm not saying it. Jack can sit. It's a Jack is a. I said what? All I said was, all I said was Lindsay Graham is jester gooning for, uh, for war that Lindsay Graham loves to jester goon for war. He doesn't care where the war is or really who's in the war. Um, it could be in Ukraine.
Starting point is 00:18:54 It could be in the Middle East. It could be in Latin America. But that's Lindsay Graham. He loves, he loves gesture going for war. okay so we probably should explain this a little bit because we do have listeners who are a little bit older we also have a 11 year old so let's try and keep it okay well so looks maxing we can start with that just mean acting silly looks literally just acting silly also also 11 year olds probably shouldn't listen to the entire idea is this is the pg 13 show okay so 13 year old yeah yeah so yeah so we've got but so so looks maxine is a subculture that's emerged it comes out of online internet forums I believe it comes out of the in-cell community,
Starting point is 00:19:29 which is, of course, a community on the internet. And so it's the guys who say, in these harsh times where we have more and more inequality and more extreme outcomes, the only path towards success is you have to massively maximize your physical appearance. And that doesn't just consist of eating right or lifting weights so that you look stronger.
Starting point is 00:19:53 It includes things like aggressively reshaping your physical appearance. face. And so there is a, I believe, is it clavicular, Jack? Clavicular is the guy who hits his face with a hammer in order to, the idea is it breaks your bones in your face. And then as a result, you get sharper features. And so you have a stronger chin, stronger cheekbones. And you will become more of a gigacad, which is what you should all aspire to be. Others, uh, the team, do you guys remember me? Have you guys heard of mewing? Is that the one where you, you put your tongue on the roof of mouth. Yeah, yeah. So you, you, you, mewing is the one where you put your tongue on the roof of your mouth and then you use it to sort of like spread out your, um, your upper mandible so that it,
Starting point is 00:20:40 so that it spreads the size of your jaw. So the idea is that that, that I don't know why it's called mewing, um, but, but that's what mewing is. And, um, there's also, there's also people who eat or chew, it's not mewing, but in, in, in other, you know, jaw related looks maxing. Um, is because the people will chew, like, hard gum, like, mastic gum or, like, something that's, like, a really, really extra chewy gum that they'll just, like, chow down on all the time. And there's been some videos of guys with, like, this, I saw this one clip. I don't know where it is where, you know, this guy was, like, super skinny and, like,
Starting point is 00:21:15 looked like he didn't go to the gym, but the only muscle in his entire body that he worked out was his jaw. So he had this, like, massive, like, expanded jaw kind of situation going on now. Which of course makes you talk like a haps bug. That sounds weird to us, but I think do we have to admit that this is just the correct way to go about life? Do we have to maximize our physical appearance at all costs due to inequality? Yeah, look at him. He's hammering his face with that. What's not a hammer?
Starting point is 00:21:43 That's like a massager. It's like a massage gun. Well, it might be the more mild version of it. Maybe the higher budget version of it. He definitely breaks bones in his face. I know that. And I think we have other clips It gives you like stronger cheekbones
Starting point is 00:22:00 I guess Like or maybe it's like like calcifies Is that something like that? That's exactly what it is. So you break the bones They grow back stronger and more You know Hey everyone

And so it's become this whole thing because we have these different looks maxing people They all seem to have bizarre names.
Starting point is 00:24:52 So we have, we have clavicular, we have, we have, there's a local tie-in here. There's a guy who's, I only know him as ASU frat leader. We all know that Arizona State is a particularly fratty school. Particularly looks maxing school. And yeah, and ASU frat leader. In fact, ASU frat leader, I think we have a clip about this where he got publicly cortisol checked by androgenic. Do we have, do we have clip nine? Is that live or is that just B-roll?
Starting point is 00:25:18 This environment, I will avenge clavs. if it's a last thing I do if I have to blast five grams of chest I am coming to you I'm coming to and in a few weeks be there
Starting point is 00:25:27 oh dear okay so I guess apparently what happened is that clip was that ASU frat leader got publicly cortisol checked by androgenic
Starting point is 00:25:35 the number one undisputed looks maxing protege of clavicular he is about to avenge clavicular who I believe got frame-mogged
Starting point is 00:25:44 by ASU fratleader Jack do you know about frame-mogging yeah so what's funny it's a lot of of like the Gen Z slang is actually just like right wing slang from 2015, 2014. So like magging is something that yeah like the migtao guys used to say this and like the manosphere guys
Starting point is 00:26:01 used to say this. Oh apparently there's also a um I got to watch it uh because I heard it's I heard it's interesting. There's a new manosphere um documentary out on on Netflix or something so I've got a I've got to pirate that and watch it um you know watch it later and so mocking used to just mean like like going beast mode on somebody and just showing how how much more powerful you are than them like mug someone in the gym like was that was the original you know was the original take on it but then magging sort of took on a new form where it was if you had if you had like a if you're just bigger than somebody physically that you were mugging them and that if you stand next to someone in an image like this because you're in the same frame that you are then frame mugging them
Starting point is 00:26:49 I got accused of chin-mogging somebody. Chin-mogging? By whom? It was in that when I was debating Adam Meckler for mockler, whatever his name is. You remember that news nation thing? Right now, you're pronouncing. It's not hard to mock that guy at all. It's really not hard to mock him, not even a little bit.
Starting point is 00:27:07 Because he's got that, he's got that like. I felt proud about it. Yeah. I saw a couple of comments there. First you chin-mog him. Now you pronounce him. I was chin-mogging him originally because I was making fun of his soul patch. He had that little, like.
Starting point is 00:27:19 He had that little, like, food catcher, and then he got, I think he shaved it after that. Yeah. So, funny enough, he was on, you know, that whole Abby Phillip controversy about Islam and stuff like that? He was on that panel that night. And I was like, I know that guy. That guy's really. Oh, really? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:37 He's, it was, it was interesting because back behind scenes, he was really kind and nice and he was. I've actually heard that about him. And then he got on stage. It was like, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. It was completely animated, unfair, jumping to conclusions. Yeah, anyways, but it's fine. Yeah, what's funny, what I do think is... Oh, wait, wait, by the other one that I wanted to get in, because you mentioned it a couple times, cortisol.
Starting point is 00:28:04 So cortisol face is if you have a round, puffy, or bloated facial appearance. So I guess perhaps the, you know, the hammering might help with this. So if you have a high stress level, which gives you a cortisol spike, then... you have a lack of facial definition. You could have double chin. And then you could even get cortisol belly. So go watch out for the cortisol. So what I think is kind of interesting about this is if you look at all of these guys,
Starting point is 00:28:33 they basically are all Gen Z white guys. And this definitely grows out of, as Jack would say, like right-wing slang on the internet. It does feel... Big time. It feels implicitly a bit right-wing. I think they've all been to now. as essentially like right-wing extremists at some point.
Starting point is 00:28:50 And yet they're actually kind of not. I guess that's probably merciful because otherwise we'd end up with like clavicular running for president or something. But in fact, they've actually, they've gotten attention for like they've basically one of them. That's got to be surgery. What are we showing here?
Starting point is 00:29:10 Oh, they're showing B-roll here. Yeah, I mean, a lot of them gets through. That's part of it. That guy with the horns. I don't buy that. Like the bigger picture thing here. here is that there is something like I think on the right we talk about it's desirable to
Starting point is 00:29:23 excel it's desirable to improve your appearance like we shouldn't embrace obesity we shouldn't embrace uh like being a loser you should try to improve yourself and yet like this looks like something technically it is a form of improving yourself you're trying to make yourself more attractive how far is too far this is too far you shouldn't be breaking your bones or like micro breaking your bones to like change the shape. Come on. Okay. So is Botox immoral?
Starting point is 00:29:52 Because Botox, you're injecting yourself with the deadliest poison in the world and paralyzing your face. You know, I think it's arguable. But it doesn't strike me as nearly as insane as some of the pictures I'm looking at right now. Like these images that we're throwing up on screen, they have obviously crossed another line. Or what about if it didn't exist? If it didn't exist and these guys were inventing it, how do you think we'd
Starting point is 00:30:17 react to something like braces. Like, oh, would they bind metal bars to their teeth to straighten their teeth? Insano. My kids got braces right now. Yeah. I just, it's a whole different thing. Most places don't do braces. This is like a weird American thing to do braces on your teeth.
Starting point is 00:30:32 No, but there's actually a medical reason for braces because the shape of your bite, your shape of your palate can affect the way you breathe at night, can affect the, you know, sleep apnea. I had a buddy that had to get his whole palate because he didn't get braces when he's a little kid. expanded so that he, because he was literally dying slowly because of his sleep apnea, and it was so bad that the machine wouldn't work, so he had to do that. If he would have gotten braces as a young kid, it probably would avoid it that. Yeah. What about, what about wisdom teeth? Do you guys have your wisdom teeth? Mine were removed. Yeah, I have two. How old? I got mine out in high school, I think, when I was 17 or 18. I have the two lower ones still. You're the two once. So I've been hanging on to mine. I've been hanging on in my whole life. And every time,
Starting point is 00:31:17 like, I'll go to the dentist and they'll be like, they'll be like, hey, you know, you've got this her day with your teeth and they're going to grow and it's going to jam out your jaw. And I was like, well, if it becomes a problem, I'll take them out. And it's never become a problem. And I'm like, I feel like this is just kind of a scam in some cases where they just know that they get paid to do this. I totally have thought the same thing. I've thought the same thing because, you know, human beings have existed with wisdom teeth since human beings have existed. Thank you. So like, why do we have them if we didn't need them? I mean, I guess you could make the argument that your, your first round of molars fall out because of, I don't know, cavities and we didn't have dentistry at the time,
Starting point is 00:31:56 and you needed a replacement set. But I just kind of don't buy that at all, actually. Yeah, I just, I don't, I've never bought it. Now, funny enough, in the military, so like in the Navy, for example, you can get it taken out for free. So it's something like they always try to push. They're like, oh, you should get these taken out. You should get these taken out. And if you, here's an interesting one, if you sign up for submarine service, they take your wisdom teeth right away.
Starting point is 00:32:23 Blake, do you know why? Because they don't want to have to operate on you if you have a problem while at sea. Don't they also like take your appendix out or something? No, but why do they specifically take wisdom teeth out automatically for submariners? I don't know. Because if it has to do with pressure and the pressurization of the submarine, which is like similar to, you know, going in an airplane when it's pressurized. And if you have a problem with your wisdom teeth and they impact, they can actually explode when you're underwater. And apparently it's, you know, it's happened in the past.
Starting point is 00:32:55 And so at this point, they don't even mess with it anymore. And so even if you like, when you're in boot camp, we had a ton of guys, every single person who, who signs up for under sea service gets. gets their wisdom teeth taken out, no questions asked. Like, you just have to do it. Yeah. So, wait, do people get their wisdom teeth taken out for appearance? I thought that was just because, like, they can just mess you up health-wise. And so it's just easier to take them off.
Starting point is 00:33:19 Is that, like, in some cases, I don't think it's medically necessary. Oh, we do have someone asking kids today, or saying kids today would not make it in the 90s. There's definitely reason to believe this. One of these looks-smaxers is apparently in tears because someone puts cheese on his burger. I guess that's not a look-s-smaxing approach. See, this is how you know it's... So I have a question, though. It is...
Starting point is 00:33:41 Go ahead. Go ahead, Joe. Is looks maxing really all that different from metrosexualism? That was like a whole thing in the early 2000s? Like, isn't this kind of the same thing as that? I think the closest analog for looks maxing actually might be male to female transgenderism. I think it's pretty close. Because think about it.
Starting point is 00:34:04 A male to female transgender. A failed to meet... male to female transgender. Let's not forget your your breadth, your pioneering work at Revolver. Yes, I'm about to say I'm about to say. Okay, okay, go ahead. Exactly. So a male to female transgender, as we as we know, they're autogynophiles
Starting point is 00:34:18 in many cases. So they basically their kink is they kind of they have a fetish for like the idea of themselves turning into a woman and as a result they have a very stupid, pornified version of like what a woman is. So like
Starting point is 00:34:34 you look at Caitlin Jenner. Bruce Jenner did not become, he was 60 years old when he started going through all that. He didn't become a 60 year old woman. It doesn't look like your grandma. He tried to dress up like he's a 29 year old model bombshell. And that's what they get into. They want to imitate this super stereotyped version of like what women are into or how they look and how they behave and everything. And, you know, they'll talk about like, it's so hot like getting our periods. Like women don't get weird excitement about getting their periods. They don't like them.
Starting point is 00:35:09 And so this is like the dude version. They're basically male to male transsexuals. So these guys are going and they're like, let's inject ourselves and do these insane things. So we look like our cartoon version of a dude. I mean, throw up one of the ASU frat leader picks again. Like the dude literally looks like a cartoon character. Like you would think it was AI generated.
Starting point is 00:35:31 Yeah. Except he's apparently a real person. This is why I know it's going too far. and Botox is like, I don't know, I put it in a different category. Although I've heard people make the same argument about Botox. But like here's, you could tell when he starts crying, the narcissism and the fragility, like that's not masculine. So the whole point is that you're sort of like creating this hyper masculine veneer
Starting point is 00:35:51 to cover up this hyper insecure interior, this hyper narcissistic interior. It's not godliness. That's not. I mean, listen, how about this? It's a somewhat similar, because I think about this. this with weightlifters or bodybuilders. Like there can be, you know, like a discipline in that, right? You know, I'm not totally against it, but like sometimes it's like, okay, how much are you
Starting point is 00:36:13 going to focus on your physical form here? So 1 Timothy 4-8, for physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise both for the present life and the life to come. This is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance. That is why we labor and strive because we have put our hope in the living God, who is the savior of all people, and especially. of those who believe. So the physical body, yeah, there's some value to it, but having good character being godly, that has eternal value. So this stuff just, all the sirens are going off for me, all the flags.
Starting point is 00:36:49 The online world moves fast and it's moving even faster these days. That's why TikTok approaches teen safety with families in mind from the start, because discovery and creativity are both wonderful things, but it's important to make sure that safety comes first as well. On TikTok, Teenagers have over 50 built-in protections right from when they join. Accounts for teens all start private by default. They're not open to the entire world. And for those under 16, direct messages are turned off. Only their friends can comment on their videos.
Starting point is 00:37:21 And that kind of approach matters, because feeling confident and comfortable about these platforms your teenagers are on shouldn't mean digging through a bunch of menus and trying to set everything up yourself and worrying that you got it wrong. TikTok is taking a proactive approach. their protections are built in from the moment those teenagers join so that safety and peace of mind for parents is there right from the start. All of this is to say, when safety comes first,
Starting point is 00:37:46 discovery and creativity can follow without fear. Learn more by going to TikTok.com slash guardians guide. That's TikTok.com slash guardians guide. Well, before we move, I know we got a couple rumble rants in, so I do want to hit those. Oh, and apparently we have a sound effect for that now. Yes, we do. Yeah, we've had the sound effect for a while.
Starting point is 00:38:14 How about we do B. Jordan's first? I don't actually listen to the show. Yes, of course. Oh, I'll get it here. Yeah. So since Jack mentioned Netflix, was it determined that they dropped their attempt to buy Warner Brothers because of the Trump administration would block approval?
Starting point is 00:38:29 So yes and no. There were serious antitrust issues with this because it wasn't just like the Trump administration. There were actual serious antitrust people coming out and saying that if you have the number one streaming service buying the number three streaming service that you're going to run into very serious issues. But in this case, so when Paramount came in, that became sort of the number, I think like number four or number five streaming service, Paramount Plus, buying the number three.
Starting point is 00:38:58 So it just wasn't in the same category as Netflix consolidating the, market. It just didn't really trip, you know, didn't really hit the trip wires for that would trigger an antitrust situation. And they kind of knew that. So, you know, I think that, honestly, I think that regardless of who was in, in office in the, in the White House right now, this probably would have run into some very, very serious issues. And then also Paramount came in with a, with a deal that was just so much higher than where, where Netflix was for Warner Brothers. Plus, the Netflix, deal was only for a portion of the Warner Brothers assets. So it didn't include, for example, I think CNN and some of their other TV assets, whereas the Warner or excuse me, the Paramount deal came in and
Starting point is 00:39:48 said, we want to buy the whole enchilada. So they came in and said, we're buying everything. So in a short answer, like, yes, but it's actually more complicated than that. That being said, if you guys remember, you know, I was definitely targeting Netflix and bring this up as a huge, huge issue way back during the Stranger Things situation, right, which of course happened right when this deal was first announced. And look, you know, what can I say, guys? What can I say? You lost. You deserve to lose and you have totally lost. And also, by the way, how great is it? How great is it now that HBO has now been bought by Paramount instead of woke flicks and perhaps just perhaps the new duncan egg series which is amazing will be able
Starting point is 00:40:36 to continue without being super wokeified lovely and then the other one that we have here is oh we got too many of these here all right we have a question uh just says old dominion oh zoosu again asked the old dominion terrace was sentenced to 12 years in federal prison was out in three how did that happen I think it was a little more than three. I think it was 2017 to 24 or so. But nevertheless, did get out very quickly, and the answer is because our prison sentences are not as long as they are supposed to be. Although the federal system is better.
Starting point is 00:41:10 The federal system at least has no parole, and there's like a cap on how much good behavior credit you can get. So I want to say, what's the most you can slice off a federal sentence? Like a quarter of it? Something like that? I don't know. All right. It's something like that.
Starting point is 00:41:23 It's less than your full sentence, but you don't, the federal system doesn't have these cases you get in many a state, even many red states, where you get sentenced to 20 years and you're out in three and a half and then you go and stab someone again and everyone asks, how did this happen? There's no way we could have prevented this. Well, a lot, you were talking about that, George Soros, Virginia, is it the district attorney? Commonwealth attorney, they call them that same idea. Yeah, you know, we just have Commonwealth health attorneys who love not prosecuting people and love letting criminals out immediately and love, love letting them roam around and stab people. There's a guy, crazy enough, that old
Starting point is 00:42:01 dominion shooter, his last name was Jallo. We have had two different shooters in Virginia in the past month who are immigrants from Africa with the last name Jallo, who have violent criminal histories, who have murdered somebody. So we should just like, you know, we have like the Muslim ban. We should just, we should just do like Jollob ban. Jelloban. We can call it the Jelloban. We can call it the Jelloban. someone would adjust the pronunciation there a bit. Jelliband? I think we could at least, you know, shut it down until we figure out what is going on.
Starting point is 00:42:30 But speaking of shutting things down, how do we, how do we feel? Do you guys feel like beating up on Canada or do you guys feel like talking about money? Both are very good. Both are very very good. I do you have money or do they have like the loony? Is Canada even a real country though?
Starting point is 00:42:45 Canada is a real country. It's a very problematic country. Disagree. Not a real country. No, I think we have to admit it's a real country. We have to stare evil in the face. All right. You pick, you pick, Blake.
Starting point is 00:42:55 You know, Canada fills me with so much rage. I need to dial back my anger. I want to embrace the money first. All right, let's go money. All righty. So this is a different Anglo country that's committing suicide. This is the United Kingdom. We have a lot of fondness for the Brits.
Starting point is 00:43:10 I don't know how much they return it, but we love the Brits. We do. But the problem is Britain made a big mistake. They made this idea where they thought, well, everyone in the world would just surely love to be British. so we don't need to care about maintaining our cultural homogeneity or our religious homogeneity or our doesn't want to destroy the UK homogeneity. So they let in a bunch of people.
Starting point is 00:43:32 And now they're full of people who don't like the UK. And so the lovely people, besides abolishing jury trials for a bunch of crimes, they are also abolishing people on the money in the UK. Like who, Blake? Winston Churchill, Jane Austen. Can you imagine? That would be like, who would, like, who'd, literally be like us removing George Washington or something.
Starting point is 00:43:53 Watch the space. I'm sure we'll get on that. It would be like Eisenhower from the 50 cent piece. Like taking all of that money, I know they don't make him anymore, right? But I mean, this is kind of what we're talking about, World War II figure. Winston Churchill is, you know, broadly beloved. Obviously, there's some people that have claimed he's the real villain of World War II, which I wholeheartedly reject. Charlie loved Winston Churchill.
Starting point is 00:44:15 Yeah. I think, did we still have a Churchill object here? I think that's old churchy up there with the headphones on. That's a bust of Churchill. Yeah. Up there on the shelf. Love Churchill. And I think this is offensive.
Starting point is 00:44:26 By the money is. Yes, exactly. I think it actually is. Never surrender. Pretty good, actually. You know, in general, we should maintain traditional things, but especially actually if you're embracing all of this mass migration. I think it's actually essential.
Starting point is 00:44:42 You've got to keep people on your money. You need to have national heroes. You have to force people to accept them as national heroes. They're replacing Churchill with wildlife, badgers, hedgehogs, otters, barnals, nukes, and beavers. She turned me into a newt. I think that's what it was. Are they putting Sonic the Hedgehog on British money, which was funny because Sonic is, of course, originally Japanese, I guess. No, Sonic the Hedgehog is really big in Britain.
Starting point is 00:45:07 I'm not sure why, but he actually is insanely popular there. Oh, really? Yes. Like, is he more popular? Because there's like a new area. I mean, I guess, I mean, Sonic's popular in the U.S., but I mean, I guess, Mario has like always been more popular. Mario.
Starting point is 00:45:21 Mario, I've never heard of this. I've never heard of this thing. Is that like the Catholic? Is it a Catholic thing? Mary. Oh. Wow. That was just awkward. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:33 I know. That's how we're talking. That's like the Philly way of saying Mario. It's the Philly way. It's the Philly way. Okay. We need to get Kevin to confirm. How does he say Mario? All right.
Starting point is 00:45:44 But yeah. So Kevin's got like the more Philly like the real, you know. You know, Mario. You know, we spend a lot of time on this show talking about culture, about why strong families matter, why values matter, why faith matters. But here's something practical. If you actually want to build a strong family someday, you have to start by meeting someone who shares those same convictions.
Starting point is 00:46:11 And in today's dating culture, that's not always easy. A lot of apps are built around casual connections, instant grass. gratification, no long-term vision, and that's just not what many of you are looking for. Let's be honest. That's why I like what Upward is doing. It's a dating app designed around faith and shared values, people who care about commitment, integrity, marriage, and family. You're starting from common ground instead of trying to negotiate your core beliefs three months into a relationship. That kind of clarity matters.
Starting point is 00:46:41 If faith is central to your life, or even if it's something that's shaped how you were raised and how you see the world, Upward connects you with people who take that seriously. If you're tired of the confusion and you're ready to date with intention, with marriage and family in mind, download Upward and start building on the right foundation because strong relationships don't just happen by accident. They start with shared values. Upward. Okay.
Starting point is 00:47:09 And like, you know once they take, they put the wildlife on, they'll like never be able to muster the cultural courage to put someone on the money. Or if they do, it's going to be, someone horrible. They're like, okay, we need to put the person on the money who's like the first multicultural gay basket weaver to serve on the city council of Leeds and just put them on the money. The way they do in the U.S., where, did you know that the quarters they're making now are like women of the United States and we're just getting like Asian rights activists in San Francisco are getting on money? I feel like we dispersed the quarter thing like across the state so everybody
Starting point is 00:47:46 gets to play kind of thing. That was their strategy. We did all the states. Then we did the national parks. God forbid we have any future white men on our currency. Do you think it's going to happen? Do you think it's possible that we could get another white man on American currency? Like a new white man?
Starting point is 00:48:03 Yeah. Like a you could get an African American. Like a Charlie Kirk. We actually were discussing this. We were discussing this. Charlie Kirk quarters. Why can't we get Charlie Kirk quarters? I want a silver dollar.
Starting point is 00:48:15 Or yeah, like, commemorative coins. Like they typically do. They'll have American activists on, you know, coin, silver dollars, quarters, this type of thing. Why not Charlie? Look, if Alabama can put a radical anti-American communist on their state quarter, I think we could get Charlie Kirk on a quarter. We should try. I'm referring to Helen Keller, of course, was a communist. But allegedly, allegedly, well, she was definitely a communist.
Starting point is 00:48:43 Oh, wait. Hmm Let's advance this I know there actually was talk At the Treasury to get something pushed I'm gonna revisit that Because Charlie deserves Yeah no I feel like this came up before actually
Starting point is 00:48:55 Yeah Now it'd be neat So one of the things that's worth noting We haven't added a new dollar bill Denomination in a long time In fact we've reduced them We used to have larger denominations We had $1,000 bills
Starting point is 00:49:05 Back when that would represent Like $10,000 plus dollars More than that I would think Yes I think we had a $10,000 bill We had a $100,000 bill But it was more like kind of a bank transfer certificate thing.
Starting point is 00:49:16 Yeah. Yeah, there we go. That's $1,000. I think that's Grover Cleveland. We put Grover Cleveland on money. That's okay. See, I wouldn't recommend Glover at this point. I feel like it'd be time. I think you could get away with a $500 bill at this point. That would probably be worth what. With inflation? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:29 It's basically what $100 was when we were kids. Who would you put on a $500 bill if you created it today? So my vote would be one of two, and if you were going to force me, I'll pick. But Teddy Roosevelt or Calvin Coolidge. All right. Do we have a mock up of that? Do we have a mock up of that guy? Teddy Roosevelt on a $500 bill. Okay. That looks solid. That looks solid. And I also like that's kind of the old look of dollars. They've gotten all fancy. I wouldn't mind restoring that mid-century, yeah. The mid-century grayish greenback look. That's why do you say that actually, because when they kind of came out with a more colorful $20 bills and things like that, I actually was young enough that I was really fascinated with it. And actually, when you look at dollar bills, they're actually, yeah, come on in.
Starting point is 00:50:15 Yeah, there you go. What are we looking at here? Oh, we have a whole list of all the dollar bills you guys came up with. We have Tom Brady, 28. Yeah, throughout Tom Brady. Tom Brady on a $500 bill would be pretty like, just like in color. He'd be the first seven-time Super Bowl winner to be on currency. That's really funny.
Starting point is 00:50:32 Okay, so. Okay, so. I believe so. Yes. If you throw up 45, the actual $500 bill was McKinley, image 45. No, that's actually a mock-up we did where that's William McKinley except with a giga-chat face. Oh, gigacad. Which, Donald Trump definitely thinks McKinley was a giga-chat.
Starting point is 00:50:47 He beat up on Spain. He went to Cuba. He took the Philippines. He did all the things Trump wants to do with the political policy. Everybody knows that Nixon is now on his reclamation tour. He's being reclaimed by the Patriots. Roger Stone has always been on this train. But did you know that apparently Nixon took one for the time?
Starting point is 00:51:10 team that he actually fell on the sword for the sake of the nation. I want to get James Rosen on the show who did that New York Times op-ed about this. Oh, for sure. Oh, for sure. This is Nixon on the $500 bill, 23. There it is. Beautiful. Tell us, by the way, who do you guys want? We could probably make a mock-up if someone has a good, has a good suggestion in a
Starting point is 00:51:30 chat for who you would want as a $500 bill honorary. Please tell us. No, Teddy Roosevelt, I mean, I think you'd be hard-pressed. funny enough, I just showed my kids a night at the museum for the first time, like two nights ago, and they loved it. And we were, Teddy Roosevelt, you think about the Rough Riders, Cuba, the Spanish-American War. Teddy Roosevelt built, trust-busting, who I was going to say who built the Panama now. Yeah. Again, trust-busting.
Starting point is 00:52:03 Trust-bust, just like with Netflix. National parks. You know, the national parks. I mean, you just, you think of the amount of accomplishments that he's had. And I've also long said that Teddy Roosevelt would be an excellent sort of avatar and hero for the new right because he's someone who's a Republican in good standing. But, you know, you talk about how he's, he isn't, he wasn't a looks maxer, but what was he? He was a rugged maxer. So he believed in going outdoors.
Starting point is 00:52:32 It's kind of funny because he was like, he really had to train at it because he was a softie. He was super sick all of the time. time. Yeah, when he was a kid, right? Yeah, but by the way, if I didn't even find that picture of him from when he was younger and he was like a boxer when he was in college or something, there's like a, he's like super ripped and just like does not look like you'd expect Teddy Roosevelt to look as he did older and age.
Starting point is 00:52:55 I mean, he was shot and like still kept speaking similar to a certain president that we all know. And just just someone who had a, had a view of politics that was totally different from the George W. Bush sort of, you know, mindset of it. He was a class trader in so many ways in ways that his cousin, FDR, was not. I think that the bull moose should absolutely be and should have. We did a Surnovich and I did an event years ago that we called the bull moose party. And it was like a CPAC after party kind of thing, similar to how Amfest got started. And I've always said that we should, we should really bring back the bull moose.
Starting point is 00:53:33 And plus the aesthetics are just great. Yeah, Roosevelt's pretty good. people like that idea. Someone jibberish suggests Ike on money. I do like I. We have one of those. He would be kind of, I think we have a mock up.
Starting point is 00:53:45 37. Throw up Ike. He would be, we need to in general do like some Ike awareness. Charlie was actually passionate about that last year. He was just thinking we have a lot of stuff about, you could definitely see that this was made with AI. It's not a perfect.
Starting point is 00:53:59 Arise and Howard Fortune there. But we have a lot of people who remember Reagan. Obviously a lot of people like Nixon, but we're actually, you know, we're now at the point where living memory of Eisenhower as president is fading out of American life. And Eisenhower was a great president in a lot of ways. He created the highway system.
Starting point is 00:54:19 He had the whole military industrial complex. He was like the last president, I think, who had a, he had his progressive, you know, this incremental approach towards like civil rights questions before we spiraled off into inverting the constitution and like making affirmative action. He was the one who said, oh, we're going to actually just, we're going to have equal rights for Americans, not just unequal rights in a different way. He had balanced the budget. He actually cared about continuing to balance the budget. It was a period where America was... Well, we were in debt from the war. Yes, and he wanted to pay that down.
Starting point is 00:54:53 It was a period where America was innovative, where America was had thriving families. A bunch of tradcons. And it was a period where America still put Americans first. We hadn't thrown open the borders. Yeah, that was pre-heart. seller. Yes. And so Eisenhower, Great American, any one World War 2, by the way, throw that in there
Starting point is 00:55:12 I sometimes, okay, so there's this movie. Jack, do you know the movie with, um, I think it's called November 22nd, 1963. And it's got it's like the old history thing. Yeah, James Franko where they, they're back in the, I know what it is. I mean, uh, pre-assination of, of JFK. And I often put myself in that same like, like thought pattern because the Heartseller Act
Starting point is 00:55:37 1964 changed the country permanently. We didn't necessarily feel the change. We talk about naturalizing all these immigrants and things like that. We didn't feel the change for decades. We really didn't feel it in earnest until after the 1990 Immigration Act, which is
Starting point is 00:55:53 interesting. People don't know this, but JFK's brother was part of the 64 Hartseller Act. And he was also part of the 1990 Immigration Reform Act. Oh, yeah. Total disaster. 1990 went from In 1990, we went from 500,000 green cards a year,
Starting point is 00:56:07 and we just, like, more than doubled it to about 1.2 million. We're totally insane suicidal stuff. One Kennedy went, and by the way, what's ironic about this is Robert Kennedy dies and he's assassinated. JFK dies and assassinated. The one Kennedy that actually had all this impact through immigration, almost died in the car accident, but then he survived. And we, you know, anyways, it's an irony of history.
Starting point is 00:56:34 It truly is. is. Hi, folks, Andrew Colvett here. I'd like to tell you about my friends over at Y. Refi. You've probably been hearing me talk about Y Refai for some time now. We are all in with these guys. If you or someone you know is struggling with private student loan debt, take my advice and give them a call.
Starting point is 00:56:54 Maybe you're behind on your payments. Maybe you're even in default. You don't have to live in this nightmare anymore. Why Refi will provide you a custom payment based on your ability to pay. They tailor each loan individually. They can save you thousands of dollars and you can get your life back. We go to campuses all over America and we see student after student who's drowning in private student loan debt. Many of them don't even know how much they owe.
Starting point is 00:57:20 YREFI can help. Just go to YREFI.com. That's the letter Y, then refi.com. And remember, YREFI doesn't care what your credit score is. Just go to whyrefi.com and tell them your friend Andrews sent you. Pulled the staff on who they would put on the money, and so they created some of their national heroes. I think this is a caboose said he wanted to put Master Chief on the money.
Starting point is 00:57:46 Master Chief? Yeah. Master Chief, you know, he defeated the Covenants. That feels very confused. What, you don't think defeating the Covenant? Was he an American? Is Master Chief an American citizen, though? Do we know?
Starting point is 00:57:57 Is Master Chief an American? Is Master Chief? Is Master Chief? Is Master. Yeah, they say he is. He's in American citizen. You're denying citizenship to that great American hero. What about Baron Trump? Baron Trump. Who came up with that one? 41.
Starting point is 00:58:09 There it is. Yeah, but the problem with this is, you know, get a sense of how tall he is. Yeah, yeah, you got to make it like, he's got to make a full body. It's got to be like a vertical bill.
Starting point is 00:58:17 Wait, why would you have Donald Trump before Baron Trump? Well, you got to earn it. Like, the most obvious option. Like, I'd be pro.
Starting point is 00:58:27 I'm all in on Teddy. What's that? I'm all in on Teddy. I like Teddy. Wait, how come I got no love, like history love for Calvin Coolidge.
Starting point is 00:58:38 You went on this whole spiel. Oh, Calvin Coolidge is good, too. The thing about Calvin Coolidge is he's good, but he's a somewhat unexciting type of good. Oh, I love that. We need more unexciting good. Yeah. You would agree with this.
Starting point is 00:58:49 Yeah. Yeah, for sure. All right. He's a great one. You know, if you want a true thought, Michael Jordan would be good. Michael Jordan. Brady got seven championships.
Starting point is 00:58:58 Jordan only got six, but Jordan was MVP, I believe, six different times. No. Wasn't he the finals MVP all six times? Why do we do some of them in color and some of them not? Look, we bow down before the AI gods. And also, you can't make people, you've got to have the red on Jordan. Otherwise, people will wonder if he's wearing the Wizards jersey, and that'd be really lame.
Starting point is 00:59:17 Obviously, you can't have. No. You can't have. What if, what if it said? Wait, wait, did you guys see the George Lucas meme this week? Yes, I did. Yes, I did. What if we had George Lucas, but it specifically said, like, Lucas, but only the originals, like, in parentheses.
Starting point is 00:59:32 I could say that on the bill. But as much I'm loathe to say, there was this meme of George Lucas earlier this week where it was just a picture of him and he was like, so do you still think trade route disputes are a boring plot point? Yes, yes, I do. Yeah, I'm already tired at the straight of Hormuz. What about it? It's like you got to give him credit. You got to give him credit on that. And I will say that as boring and terrible as a movie as episode one is,
Starting point is 01:00:03 And I'll die on that hill. That was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was trite that, uh, that, that meme was certainly earned. Uh, so I have a, I have a random thought that I don't know if I'm allowed to. Star Wars continues to be faking gay. What? Star Wars. She says Star Wars.
Starting point is 01:00:20 Continues to be faking gay. Shit. You know if, I have an actual, I have a genuinely thought crimey, uh, I was about the thought crimey. Oh, okay. You can thought crime on your money, but then I want to thought crime on money. No, it's not. Oh, it's not, oh, it's not about money. Oh, so mine is still on the money one.
Starting point is 01:00:36 Like a genuinely thought, crimey thing, I think it would be cool to put on the money. And we've done it before, but people would lose their minds if we did it today. Did you know in 1937, we put Walter Raleigh and Virginia Dare on the money? I did not know. So Walter Raleigh created the Roanoke colony, which was lost, but it was the first English settlement in America. And Virginia Dare is the first person of English descent born in the Americas.
Starting point is 01:01:02 And so in 1937, I believe it was the 350th anniversary of the foundation of Roanoke. And so they made a commemorative half dollar for it. And I think that'd be cool because we've had that discussion. Like, guys, is America a diverse country? Yes. Is America people from all over? Yes. But America is descended from the English.
Starting point is 01:01:26 It is an English country. What makes America great is the stuff we inherited from the English. and we should actually emphasize the English character of America. We should do that with Jamestown. We should do that with the Plymouth Colony. And we should do it with Roanoke. And so we should put Virginia Day or back on the money. Which is why throw up 48, we should make a big deal about Calvin Coolidge.
Starting point is 01:01:50 Look at that English bloke. I just had a good idea. I mean, probably, but probably. Go ahead. I just had a good idea. And I'm surprised that it didn't come to me until now. And I don't know if this, I'll have to look at a lot. up because I haven't done this, but just off the top of my head.
Starting point is 01:02:05 Christopher Columbus. Columbus, okay. But not English. Christopher Columbus. Because when you mentioned the first, how Virginia was the first, you know, sort of born American, that one thing that I teach my kids is that Christopher Columbus was the first American. And we talk about this, you know, a lot.
Starting point is 01:02:24 And they'll say, like, well, sometimes our teacher says that Christopher Columbus wasn't the first American because the Indians were here. And I was, and I pointed out, I said, well, if your teacher says that, then you you can remind your teacher that the United States of America didn't exist until the European settlers got here because there was no America at that point. It's a good point. By the way, Columbus is still the first American. Have you ever read Christopher Columbus's journals and things like that?
Starting point is 01:02:50 Yeah. His personal writings, the man was extraordinarily godly, actually, at least from his writings. Obviously, we didn't know him and maybe he was a closeted something or other. but like his his writings are incredibly uh i would say spirit filled actually so yes oh thomas well i mean columbus the reason that he wanted to get the gold from the indies was because if you look look at the time frame so constantinople had fallen in 1453 so 1492 you're about 40 years later he wanted to find to use the money to found a new crusade to retake the holy land and starting with Constantinople, which had fallen to the Ottoman Turks at the, you know, just a couple
Starting point is 01:03:33 decades prior. And then after Ferdinand and Isabella had completed the Reconquista in Spain, you know, he was saying that, look, we need to retake Constantinople. We need to retake the Holy Land. And I'm going to go to the, you know, the Indies, collect all this gold. And then we'll use that to fund the retaking of Constantinople. So again, unfinished business. We've got some fun suggestions in here. I think I like the pairing, someone suggests, David, Crockett and James Bowie, both Alamo defenders. That could be an exciting one. Maybe someone can rip that.
Starting point is 01:04:06 Someone also suggested Rush and Charlie as a dual team. Let's see. Dylan, Dylan Ivy says, yuck to Coolidge. You should take that back, Dylan. You're very mistaken on that front. Keep cool with Coolidge. That was a great time to be American. He was a great American president.
Starting point is 01:04:27 He was just good times. under the coolster. He believed in taking your medicine as a country. So instead of just inflating your way out of debt and spending yourself into oblivion, he was like, no, we're going to let the market's correct. And guess what? Bad capital is going to be wiped off the books. And we're going to start from a much more firm foundation economically.
Starting point is 01:04:45 Current America could never deal with that. But it was the right choice. So by the way, I know this is back to breaking news. Do you know these students at ODU killed the shooter? Yeah, yeah. A rotsie guy staff. him. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:00 That's amazing. Wait, I didn't know that. Yeah. I've been on air a lot today and I'm not like, I just, I just haven't been following the news as much. What happened? They, they, he targeted the ROTC guys and killed one of the ROTC instructors and then one of the students, ROTC guys killed him. What a hero. Total hero.
Starting point is 01:05:20 Put that guy on the money. Put him on. We can put him on money next to Zuzu suggested David Hasselhoff. Can we get that one? Although maybe, could we get David Hasselhoff? maybe on an old Reichs mark because he was really big in Germany okay that's interesting who was the other guy with the mustache Hitler Hitler was big in Germany
Starting point is 01:05:38 I don't know I don't think I don't think we should put I don't think we should put Hitler on the money he was a lot of downsides Tom Selleck right okay yeah Tom Selleck who's also famous Tom Selleck didn't lead Germany in World War II I mean but he Magnum P.I was big in Germany true story no it is very funny there's a lot of American celebrities who just become big in foreign countries. Did you know the book Anna Green Gables
Starting point is 01:06:05 is huge in Japan? No. So like Japanese tourists will go visit Prince Edward Island in Canada because they want to go visit Anna Green Gables. You know what we should do. Oh, go ahead. Go ahead, Jeff. I was just going to say in when I was in China,
Starting point is 01:06:20 I remember that finding out that Friends is like massive in China. Like they just, they love it. They all watch it to like learn English. they think it's the coolest thing and then of course when I was there I'd be like yeah I was more of a Seinfeld guy
Starting point is 01:06:33 and they're like what Sanferrodo? I guess like the I guess like a lot because you think of it though so much of Seinfeld's humor is like wordplay and puns and stuff like that
Starting point is 01:06:44 and it just doesn't translate well Dylan Dylan says he takes it back he was thinking of Harding the whole time we had this conversation You can't mix up Harding and Coolidge they're totally different presidents
Starting point is 01:06:56 two different people One of them is a boring, forgettable 20s president, and the other is an awesome forgettable 20s president. I'm so glad you're with me on the Coolidge. Yeah, Coolidge is the best. Harding. What's funny about Harding? Harding was an extremely popular president while alive, and then he died and never and realized, oh, there were a lot of problems. This is their election plank right here.
Starting point is 01:07:16 It says safe, sane, and steady. You guys can't see it, but we have Coolidge on the wall here. Coolidge and Dawes. Every day, Americans make choices that shape our country's future. right down to which cell phone provider we support. Here's what most people don't realize. Patriot Mobile isn't just a wireless provider. They're an activist organization funded by selling top-tier cell phone service.

Canada, since we have a few. All right, we very briefly have to hit Canada while we're talking about this. Canada's definitely a nation that's not going to have anything cool. Are we finally going after the Great Satan? We need to go after the Great Satan because it's going, it is going viral today. So what happened was in the Benighted Nation of Canada, people are getting mad at a judge over this and they really should not get mad about the judge. So this fellow, he murdered his girlfriend, Everton, Javon Downey, stabbed his girlfriend, Melissa,
Starting point is 01:09:06 15 times in the stairwell of a shopping center in 2021, ending her life. And they originally were seeking a sentence of, well, so this is Canada. So what they do is you get sentenced to life in prison, but it's fake life in prison. and so they're like, okay, well, he's sentenced to life in prison, but how long until he can get out from his life in prison? I saw your tweet on this. And they were saying it was going to be 15 years. They were seeking 15 years.
Starting point is 01:09:32 But British Columbia Supreme Court Associate Chief Justice, Heather Holmes has decided to slash that, pun intended, to 12 years before this man can get out in parole, because despite his, you know, aggravated criminal record involving violence and firearms, She's required under She's required under Canadian law To account for the fact that he's black And therefore he's probably just faced oppression in his life
Starting point is 01:10:02 And so they shouldn't punish him as much This is a requirement under Canadian law If you're black or if you are a First Nations person The Canadian law explicitly says You have to get special consideration For reduced sentences in criminal cases That's insane I loved your tweet about this by the way
Starting point is 01:10:21 You should read it. Oh, I'll read it for you. Go for it. Go for it. Out of respect for your good contribution here. Canada is an explicit apartheid state. By law, superior casts are punished less for crimes than inferior ones, with native-born white Canadians as the most inferior group of all naturally. Inferior cast can also be legally excluded from jobs that are reserved exclusively by favored groups.
Starting point is 01:10:48 Equality under the law is a moral principle dating back. all the way to the Torah. Canada is throwing that out. Charlie would always talk about. He loved to talk about how in, I can't remember where exactly, but in the Torah there's a law that says like you shall have the same law
Starting point is 01:11:03 for rich and poor, for foreigner and yourselves. You have to have that basic equality with the law. And he loved to tout that. And in America, we're obviously imperfect on that front. We've eroded it in a lot of ways
Starting point is 01:11:16 under leftism, but it's at least an ideal. In Canada, it's just explicit. legally. It says some races get stricter punishments than others when they commit crimes. In Canada, like in America, you have this song and dance where, oh, we want to take diversity into account for this hiring and it's a
Starting point is 01:11:33 travesty and we'd hate it. But in Canada, you can just straight up post a job listing for a job, and you say white men are not allowed to take this job. Literally, like it's the inverse of the famous signs, like blacks only. Yeah, yeah, it's just straight up, this job is only for a racial minority or a woman, period.
Starting point is 01:11:49 And by the way, they're going to do their darnest to just keep importing more and more and more racial minorities to the point that the laws only favor the new majority. Yeah. And they're doing this all the time. They're also, they have a whole mess going on where if you own property, they can void it. If an Indian tribe, if a First Nations tribe says that their oral tradition is that their traditional lands where your houses, they can take your house.
Starting point is 01:12:13 That's unfolding. A version of this happened in Los Angeles, actually. Remember Ryan James Gerdesky was suing on behalf of this because they, they, you know, They made some law in the 1980s to, you know, essentially send more money and smaller class sizes for minority schools, which they considered Hispanic and blacks. Any school that's like over 25% white is actually a segregated school. No, exactly. So what's hilarious, though, is that now this actually discriminates against the only minority that's left in Los Angeles, which is white schools. So it's, which is a massive minority in Los Angeles.
Starting point is 01:12:47 So that's how this goes. Blake, wasn't there something like, now this isn't in law, but wasn't there something similar kind of in practice when they were, when they were looking at jury in group versus outgroup bias in the United States? And they were trying to determine whether or not, you know, white juries and black juries and, you know, different groups on juries were more biased regarding the race to the defendant. And I'm trying to summarize all this. You're right. And they found that white juries were the least, the least likely to show a racial bias and, in fact, would punish their own, you know, their own race as much as anyone else. But it was the exact opposite when you had other juries. Yes. And we really shouldn't be surprised about this. Because actually, if you dive in to the psychological literature, one of the most important developments in Europe, in northwestern Europe specifically, is they really develop this, like, kind of.
Starting point is 01:13:48 the extreme openness of treat everyone basically the same, don't favor your clan explicitly, like that level of equality under the law and high trust, which is also what's causing all of our problems. That's the same, it's the same psychology that says, we could bring anyone into our country and have them have the same rights and all of that.
Starting point is 01:14:07 Yeah, well, and exactly right. So it was a societal advantage to have blind justice and equal rights for all. And it has now become a societal weakness that's being exploited, by the open borders lobby and many others to damage our cultures. And honestly, it's the erasure of Western culture, if you want to know the truth of it. And we want to see the end state of it.
Starting point is 01:14:30 It's Canada. And this, of course, came up when, like, right after Charlie was killed and they were trying to, like, pull, you know, all the end. Like Barack Obama was trying to pull certain quotes and take all this stuff out of context. But the point is, it's like, we here on this program and, as Charlie has, as far as I know, always said that we're for, you know, what are we for? We're for colorblind meritocracy. Just everything should just be based on merit, right? So it's now in this, we're not talking about punishment in this case, but we're talking
Starting point is 01:15:01 about just actual standards, just one standard for everyone. And no caste systems, no fast lanes, no, oh, you get extra access to something or you get extra points in the, you know, in the admissions process because of like something that happen to your group or whatever. No, we're not doing it. We're just not doing it. We're for total blank, you know, colorblindness across the board and one standard. That's it. Just one standard. Let the best man or woman win, depending on. Yeah. Sometimes. And let the chips fall where they may. Let the chips fall where they may. I love that. Listen, we, our studio has a busy, busy weekend to here. So we're going to wrap up. But this has been an important show in many ways
Starting point is 01:15:44 because I actually think with everything that happened today, with these naturalized citizens, everything that's happened since the Iran conflict kicked off, that if we don't change our ways now, if we don't actually get momentum behind reforming some of these issues, I'm not sure what's going to say. We're going to die. People are going to die.
Starting point is 01:16:04 And people like to turn this into a conversation about bigotry or xenophobia or racism. It's not that. We did not have to worry. when we got into foreign conflicts that our Muslim new new citizens were going to be offended and start attacking us when we I don't know went to war in World War two or even the Vietnam War you don't even have to pick a popular war pick an unpopular one we didn't have to worry about this you didn't have to worry about this in the Gulf War yeah and we won that war yeah anyways Jack thanks for joining us man
Starting point is 01:16:40 any final thoughts thanks for joining us on thought Go out and keep committing them. I was just trying to think, guys, what should we, so, you know, what should we all do for looks maxing this week? We all got to, we've all got to pick something real quick. Blake has to do 150 push-ups. You're going to do how many? I'm going to do 150 push-ups tonight.
Starting point is 01:17:06 Okay, that's pretty good. Are you going to do push-ups every day? I can do that. 150 every day? I'm going to mute. I'm going to start. That's a pretty good amount. I think you can't really
Starting point is 01:17:15 talk when you're mewing, but I'm hearing it right now. It's great. It's going great. It's real great. And we'll see what my progress is next week. Is the point to make your mouth look like this? I hung it widened your face a little bit. No, it's going to make your jaw out. Like, what do you mean? It's not going to change your lips.
Starting point is 01:17:33 All right, fine. But if it does, I'll just get, I'll just get, like, collagen and Botox and stuff would be good. Oh, by the way, you know, just since we were mentioning looks maxing women, stop getting your bucle fat removed. For the love of God, I guess Marco Robbie got it removed or something.
Starting point is 01:17:49 It is awful. It is a war crime. It's a crime against nature. Stop it immediately. Yeah, it's very bad. It's so bad. It's so bad.
Starting point is 01:17:59 It's the stuff that it makes you kind of have a baby face in your cheeks and some people take it out and they think it makes them look all. Yeah, they take it out and it just look. I'm sorry, it looks awful. It just looks awful. What do you call it?
Starting point is 01:18:08 Buckle fat. Like B-U-C-C-C-A-L I think. Buckle. Yeah, buckle, Bucle, something like that. yeah you look at before and after and it's never good it's never good okay all right here we got to throw this up we got it because because now it's now it's a thing but these that image is like kind of far far apart here oh yeah it's been a good for a minute though it makes her look older for sure no i don't like it oh my gosh oh hold on hold on i think there's like a newer one too there's like a
Starting point is 01:18:40 Oh, no. Oh, gosh. What are you doing? Hold on here. Yeah, here we go. She looks like, she looks like, she looks like, um, what's it. She looks like, um, what's it. She looks like, um, she looks like, in, in Pulp Fiction, like, right before they have to stab the needle in her, in her heart because she did the, uh, because she was ODing. Like, why are you doing this? I don't know if that's actually her on the left, but that's her on the right afterwards. It kind of is like, honestly, it's kind of full circle to the look, put the other one up. Put the other one up. it's actually a little frightening to me because you realize the intense pressure celebrities and movie stars get under and you realize they've always been pretty insane but now we have more advanced ways for them to be completely insane
Starting point is 01:19:23 and they can go really nuts and really mess themselves up only for a couple more years because AI is about to take all those jobs do you guys know that Oprah's like really thin now finally Blake you're not getting out of this without saying how you're going to look smacks.
Starting point is 01:19:40 I'm going to look smacks by slamming my face into a table until it really toughens up my face and gives me an iron, like, facial features. All right, start right now. No time like the present. This reminds me of when Charlie did the banana peel. The ice buck, the ice bowl. Okay, I have a really good one.
Starting point is 01:19:59 That was in studio, right? That was right there. Hold on. This is actually the best one I've seen. Right here. Throw this one up. This is probably pretty true to form. There's a little, like, German words in the middle here. That. I don't like where they have that concavity in their cheeks.
Starting point is 01:20:16 It doesn't, it looks very wrong. Yeah, well, she's a beautiful lady. You look like Uma Thurman when she was on Coke in Pulp Fiction right before that. Remember, and they had to stab the adrenaline into her heart? Yes. John Travolta. Yeah. I've never seen Pulp Fiction.
Starting point is 01:20:30 Yeah. Wow. Seriously. I want to say that to upset people. Yeah, that's. I saw Inglorious Bastards, and I think that was enough Quentin Ter. for me. Full fiction is so much better than that.
Starting point is 01:20:42 I know Charlie watched because Charlie would always pronounce the word Nazi, which is only... No, that wasn't from Pulpixie. It's not from Policius. It's not from glorious bastards. Like, you clearly watched Inglorious Bastards, and I would... I'm not sure if he thought that was the way it was pronounced, or if he just liked saying it.
Starting point is 01:20:58 Because he would say it even in serious context. You know, it's funny. I said the same thing. I said Don Lamon, and apparently a lot of people didn't know why I kept saying it. That way, I got a bunch of people saying, like, why did you keep saying it, Don LaMont. I was like, that's, well,
Starting point is 01:21:10 you see, half a decade ago, there was a running joke on a now canceled Fox News program in which, Blake used to, actually was writing
Starting point is 01:21:20 the pronunciation. Imagine someone trying to do spulunking as a historian 200 years from now and figure out, I guess they'll just have AI do all the work
Starting point is 01:21:29 in the future, but, it's like when I say Jake Taper. Taper. We should end. This was a lot of fun. Jack, take us away.
Starting point is 01:21:39 Ladies and gentlemen, as always, go out there and commit more thought crime. For more on many of these stories and news you can trust, go to charliekirk.com.
