Meta With More Layoffs. Biden To Sign Executive Order on Background Checks. Aaron Rodgers to Become A Jet? Christian School Punished For Belief.

🎵 La la la la Good morning my neighbors! Hey, fuck you! La la la la It's freedom baby baby, yeah! Hi, how are you? Welcome to Show Thursday. Final day of the week already.

Mother of my sister. Oh, fuck it. Anyhow, anything to report on your side, Dallas? What's the latest? Just getting ready for St. Paddy's Day tomorrow. St. Paddy's Day tomorrow. Oh, my God, I'm glad you said that. That's a big deal down here, folks.

Look, I'm from Boston. You don't get more Irish than that state, for Christ's sake, never mind that city. And I was shocked to see, had no idea, because I didn't run the history of Savannah, shocked to see, had no idea because I didn't run the history of Savannah. It's the second biggest parade in the goddamn country after New York. New York's only big because there's six trillion people there. But I mean, in Savannah, Georgia, I got to study my slave history more. Why did the Irish come here? Probably. No, they were slaves.

Right. Well, they were coming here because you know new york was starting to get overcrowded and those that didn't want to be fucking freezing came down here and plus this uh the big the big port in this area too was another landing spot wait a minute so they left for the same reason people leave in new york today Really? Probably right. That's kind of fucking weird, isn't it? Yeah, they left. Came down here. I don't see many around. But people come from all over the place. Even Ireland. There's a whole delegate that comes every year.

Yes, and we don't let them into the city. It's real mean. They come from Ireland to this parade here. Actually went last year, stood on the sidewalk with a wait, Dallas, were you in the parade? No. Oh. I thought you were spinning a baton or something. Did you have a kilt on? Yeah. It be a big deal. I'm trying to think what was the shit in the parade we were laughing at last year. I don't know. Well, I know one float that we laughed at was the Mexican.

I think it was a Mexican restaurant. They had the mariachi float. Yes! Nothing says a pint of Guinness like a mariachi band. But it's beautiful you know yeah i'm sure there was a gay contingent afloat i might have relieved myself at that point but um everybody everybody walked around with a cup and it's a big friggin and we always brag about there's no traffic in this town ever, except for it gets pretty crazy. But that surprised the hell out of me when I came down here.

I didn't know the Civil War happened around here. A lot of people and stuff. Brother against brother. Fascinating. If you're a history though if you're a history buff come down here you won't you spent five years

just covering some of the stuff and it's a big ghost town again I don't believe in any of that horse shit is this necktie making my face look rounder choking the blood up in it

looks beautiful alright anyhow yeah so my wife's like, oh, this hotel, the third floor, nobody will sleep on it. I'll fucking go in there tonight. All I want is a steak.

You know what I want? Once a week, a free meal from whatever hotel that is. There's a couple of them, I'm sure. I'll do them all. I'll shoot a ghost. Does that make any sense? No. All right, any sense? No. All right, let's move on.

Let's do the fucking show. As much as I hate it. Hey, Meta Mass Layoffs. Meta, Meta Manbojangles, and he'll dance for you in worn-out shoes. Meta, that's the name of, it used to be,

what did it used to be? Just Facebook. It was just Facebook. He changed it to Meta, and it doesn't matter. It sucks either way. Am I with you? Are you with me? Am I with you?

Really, no. Let's hope not. That Zuckerberg's company, you know, Facebook, supposedly started as a way to pick up girls at Harvard, which is all a bunch of shit, in my opinion. Well, maybe not, but the Internet was created for the government, and this kid's creepy smart. Dobbs Ferry, New York, by the way. About 10 miles from where me and Andy were living, and I'm going to visit his parents real soon.

Now, this guy's a player. He helped Cherkov get elected. I hope you feel silly about that. You think he does? Anyways, Meta, that's his company, confirmed plans Tuesday to lay off, as they say in New York, approximately 10,000 more employees.

Boy, would I love to have a company where I could lay off that many people. Can you imagine? 10,000 employees. And that's just, he said that's just his assistants. Sure. What are these kids going to do now? We really don't need any more youngsters out there.

They really, approximately 10,000 more employees. Expanding a bloodbath that began with about 11,000 job cuts last November with this company. bath that began with about 11,000 job cuts last November with his company. He said he wants to get it down to 240 employees. And he's going to do it out of a tent on 48th Street in New York. The Facebook and Instagram parent will also close, get this, 5,000 open rolls as part of top boss Mark Zuckerberg's latest major cost-cutting push. Now, what he means by open rolls is, your guess is, but he's getting the hell out. All right, get out. Yeah.

Fuck you, man. I helped you make this. Get out. Here's the timeline. You should expect. This is him talking. Fuck you, man. I helped you make this comment. Get out. Here's the timeline. You should expect, this is him talking, over the next couple of months, org leaders will announce, org leaders, short for organs,

will announce restructuring plans focused on flattening our orgs. Boy, you talk about a painful process. You ever have your orgs flattened? That's what a jogging bra does. Canceling lower priority projects and reducing our hiring rates. Zuckerberg confirmed as he went to sleep

on a pile of money in a memo titled Update on Meta's Year of Efficiency. Boy, they're great with fucking with the language, aren't they? Can you imagine? That's what he calls it. Yeah, efficiency. They could call it cutting the balls off all you people. Excuse me.

Meta shares rose. They're shares. Let me pronounce the R on there. No, it's shares. They're fucking shares rose Rose. Like a rocket. Nearly 6% in early trading on the announcement. I'd like to have that kind of power. How you farting?

It fucks up the stock. Investors have had positive reaction to the company's belt tightening efforts. That's sexist. Not all. Broads wear belts, too. Why don't you fucking hang yourself with them? With shares surging more than 53% since the start of the year.

I rang the bell at the stock exchange. You know that? And they said, balance your checkbook. I said, I can't. In February, Zuckerberg proclaimed 2023 to be Meta's year of efficiency. What a way to word it. I think bloodbath was better. And hinted that more cuts were likely on the way.

And he wasn't talking about deli meats, he said. At this point, I think we should prepare ourselves, he said, for the possibility that this new economic reality will continue for many years, Zuckerberg. What he said is, we're heading towards another, you know, the banks are folding. I'm not going to get into it because I'll never understand it million years. But I do know what all the people who do know about that should are talking about. It's going to become a mess, almost like 2008, maybe. Biden's out there going, nah, don't worry about it. It's another power grab by the government. Once this shit is over, they're going to go to digital currency. And that's, if that doesn't kick off the revolution, I don't know what. Because once they have control of your money,

digital currency, it's going to be, you know, what? You voted for who? Just like Bank of America is doing in some of these banks who won't do business with people who are pro-gun or whatever. That's what it's going to be. It's basically China's social credit. You know that game they play over there? If you're not a good citizen,

if you don't go to the gym five days a week, you get demerit. Honestly, that's what's coming. You can see it already. I mean, PayPal won't do business with certain, right? And that's what the people who know what they're talking about say when we come out of this mess. Who knows how messy it's going to get. Higher interest rates lead to the economy running leaner. to the economy running leaner, more geopolitical instability leads to more volatility and increased babability.

Look, I'm laughing with no teeth. Increased regulation leads to, it says, shower growth or shower growth. Oh, slower. I'm not kidding. My eyes are all slimy. Slower growth and increased cost of innovation, he added. In other words, the people who make shit happen, the entrepreneurs and all that shit, they can't do that.

They can't borrow money because the rates are through the roof. That has something to do with it. In an SEC filing, Alabama says they're going to kick the shit out of Georgia next week. What? Cut. In an SEC filing, Meta said it expects lower full-year expenses in 2020. Yeah, I would hope so. You just cut 21,000 people in the last couple of years. Between $86 billion, oh billion oh no and 92 billion following the cuts can you imagine this kid who still looks like a kid can you imagine

i i 92 billion following the cuts down from a previous range of $89 billion, hope he can cover his monthly nut, to $95 billion. God bless you, Zuckerberg. It seems foolish to have all this money lying around. Oh, you'd rather have it down at the bank where the Jewish guys can leer at it? Oh, my God. Hey, hey, hey.

Money. Money. Money. I forgot about that. I cut it off because I thought it sounded anti-Semitic, the laughing part. Meanwhile, couldn't have been more mean. Zuckerberg has admitted the tech giant hired too aggressively during a pandemic. Once again, the pandemic. During the pandemic era boom in tech valuations.

The company had its worst year on record in 2022 as it navigated trouble shift toward costly metaverse technology despite sagging revenue and worsening economic conditions. And I'm glad that story's over. I hate all those fucking words. Sitting here pretending I'm Jim Cramer. By the way, he was telling people to bet on one of the banks

that went belly up yesterday. Like a few days ago. Oh, boy, oh, boy. I wish I knew more about it. I'd make fun of him. My brother does. Frigging brother's a genius at this shit. Tommy talked to my brother.

This was a couple years ago. They had never met. And I had my brother talk to him. My brother's a great marketing guy, too. And then I talked to Tommy. He goes, you guys even related? What kind of talk is that? What the fuck does that mean?

What's the matter with you? What's the matter with you? Folks, you've met my manager Tommy some years. I brought him with me on the road when I want to sell stuff because I won't refuse to do it. But you've seen him, 6'5". Right now, he's about 350, addicted to sugar. Addicted to sugar. And he'll buy like a Sicilian pie. It's like the size of a cookie sheet pizza, and say he's going to bring it to his kids. By the time he gets home, there's literally crust in the box.

He's my favorite. Let's move on to the stupider president. Stupider president? Yeah, the stupider president. The stupider president. Hey, he's a stupider. The worst president, and again, not president. He didn't win the election. Fuck you. And I'll keep saying it. It's a big lie. Yeah, the big lie is that he won the election. No, Joe, what's he doing now? Well, Biden is expected to announce an

executive order that would expand background checks to more firearm sales by expanding the statutory definition of a firearms dealer. That's what you do. You widen the scope and definitions of words, and that's how you get legislation passed. Like racism, well, this is not actually a good example, but to be racist years ago, you really had to be a racist. You had to fucking burn a cross and drag somebody behind a truck. And then now, if you disagree with a black person, you're racist. See, they expand it. And then they put it into law. And this is what Jerkoff's doing. Here he is seen. He had just pulled this pen out of his ass.

What's he holding? Oh, it's the gun. The lower receiver of a handgun. That's what Dallas said. And I mimicked him like I knew what I was talking about. I actually have a Taurus. I took it apart and cleaned it. Did I tell you that when I first got it? My late great buddy Zook left it. Did I tell you that when I first got it? My late great buddy Zook left it.

And yeah, I took that apart and cleaned everything. I haven't shot it yet. Anyhow, the statutory definition of firearms deal, the White House said, I don't know what I was talking about. Anyways. What are we doing? Yeah, put your gun down. What's going on right now?

You're holding a lower receiver of a gun. Biden is set to sign the order during a trip to Monterey Park, where he takes a dump next to his dog behind a maple tree. He's going to Monterey, California, where he will meet with families in the community impacted by the mass shooting that killed 11 and injured nine others in jane i can't even remember it i mean i know what happened out there i just uh the white house said the executive order will bring the united states as close to universal background checks that's something to

be proud of i guess as possible without additional legislation you go go fuck yourself, convict! Exactly. How dare you? Fucking compromised by China. But he's defunding the police, fucking letting criminals run free, and de-arming us. Yeah, what's the point of this whole thing? Background checks,

whenever you're not going to even have people in the records. Right. It only, again, it only hurts people who, and again, I can't believe the left can't get this through their head outlaws don't follow that you can do anything you want you fucks you're only punishing people okay how many nra members those are the people who you know this affects and then and uh Anyways, under the executive order, Biden is also directing Attorney General Jerkoff Merrick, a fucking asshole garland

seen here looking up a lady's dress on an escalator. I mean, a boy's pants. To develop and implement a plan to prevent former federally licensed firearm dealers who licenses have been revoked or surrendered from continuing to engage in the business of dealing in firearms. Well, how do they do it? I don't even know how they do that.

After they lose their license, are they doing it underground like the rest of the people in this country are doing? I don't know. The order will also improve public awareness. Oh, here we go. Yep, yep, yep. And increase the use of extreme protection like red flag laws. You know what those are, folks, right?

Those are probably the most unconstitutional thing he's done so far. If they think you're a little nutty, they're going to take your gun away, even though you haven't been convicted of anything. Which is not good for us veterans who actually have PTSD. Exactly. We can use that against us. I didn't know that. We'll talk after. No, exactly right.

Just keep them at my house. I don't give a fuck. They'll throw me in the loony bin before you. Anyways, red flag laws and safe storage of firearm. They list all the shit, and it's just words pretending they're busy doing stuff.

The order will... They've been pecking away at the Second Amendment for fucking ever. You know that. The order will also direct the Secretary of Transportation Ha ha! We got nothing to worry about! We got nothing to worry about! He's a

fag! That would be, you know who, Buttigieg. Directing... The Secretary of, in consultation with the Department of Justice, to work to reduce the loss or theft of firearms during shipment. We've got nothing to worry about. Why didn't you say that at the beginning? This guy hasn't done a thing. That's hilarious.

Yeah, renege the whole story. We're good. Improve the reporting of such losses or thefts by engaging with carriers and shippers. The White House said the order will also hold the gun industry accountable by providing the public and policymakers with more information. That's what we need in this world, more information regarding federally licensed firearm dealers who are violating the law. Yeah, that's an executive order, and then a Republican can get elected, and he'll take

that out. That's how it's supposed to work, folks. Keep them happy for a few years. Keep us happy for a few years. Keep them, and keep them divided at all times. You know it. I know it. Let's talk a little sports.

I should do more of this because it really is my passion. As you know, I played girls' soccer for three years at the University of Vermont, and I kicked those lesbians all over the place. Aaron Rodgers, a jet? to Vermont, and I kick those lesbians all over the place. Aaron Rogers a jet? I'm going to say this announcement will be made tonight or by tomorrow morning. You think, Dallas? It sounds

like that. It's a matter of hours. It is. Probably. Yeah, because there's league rules, and they said anybody that smokes weed and has a ponytail has to make a decision. I would love to see this. I don't know why. I'm a Pats fan.

The Jets are in our division. Well, maybe that's why. We get to see more Aaron Rodgers. And I want to see the trouble he'll get in when he's in New York. See how his Zen lifestyle fits that fucking raping and murdering scene. I love him. I fucking love him

in interviews and he is one hell of a quarterback and the Jets believe I'm going to say this is a Bostonian I would love to see the Jets at least in the goddamn Super Bowl oh my 69 with Namath was that the last one

it is talk about a hex that's embarrassing for like a city that big that has two football. The Giants must be laughing. Even the Bengals got there before. Yes. The Bengals. But the Bengals were good in the 80s when I was a kid. And they won one, you know. No, they didn't. They lost in the 49ers. What am I saying? But yeah, I know. You know, the Lions. You're in the Lions category. And by the way, they're going to be good next year, if you remember, right?

Anyways, I would love to see, because the press and the media is a whole different game in New York, you know. This could be the biggest clue yet that Aaron Rodgers is leaning towards accepting a trade. Are you interested in the real story? I am. Tell me what it is. The team's actively working to sign Rodgers, seen here in green, working to sign Rodgers Packers.

Oh, he wants, listen to who he wants on his team. The Jets are trying to target Allen Lazard, who's a killer, right? The Jets also have interest in veteran receiver Randall Cobb, another killer. These are all guys that he's played with. He also mentioned today Odell Beckham Jr. I think was his mistake. He can't handle it. He's just a fucking disruption.

But, yes, is he unbelievable? Just get somebody to tame him. He's a psycho, though. He's a diva. He's everything. He's a cancer in the locker room. But, my God, can he catch a football? And who was the other one, Dallas, that you mentioned?

Do a two today. No, just those three is what he's focused on. No, there's another one. Yeah, Mercedes Lewis. Yes. Mercedes, that's right. Or was it the Nissan Sentra? I don't know.

Yes. Anyways, so yeah, Mercedes. Those are all perennial all-stars, all pros right there. And I said to Dallas, you could win with this lineup. Is that how it works now? You know, it's supposed to be the draft and you suck one year and you make trades. And now it's like getting like the NBA where LeBron goes to dinner with some of his brothers in the offseason on other teams. He goes, hey, man, let's fucking stock up in L.A.

his brothers in the offseason on other teams. He goes, hey, man, let's fucking stock up at L.A. And I'll tell, you know, the L.A. owner, the fucking Lakers owner that, you know, I ain't going to put out unless you get these guys. You know what I mean? It's kind of the inmates running the, I don't know. I guess it's all above board. Anyways, that'll be a show.

I would love to see it happen. And I think he's so good, Rogers. I mean, it's almost like when Brady went to Tampa and won the goddamn Super Bowl. The Jets, I mean, he had more to work with, but the Jets were not that bad defensively. I actually think they were good defensively last year. But if you bring all those weapons in, come on, that'll be fun to see them go 2-14 again. Oh, my God. Well, shh. Oh, boy, is this great.

There is another team involved in the pursuit of Lazard, who had 169 catches in five seasons in Green Bay. That includes a career-high 60 last season for the 27-year-old. It is believed that Lazard is closely monitoring Rodgers' decision, along with the rest of the NFL world. Rodgers remained quiet on the first day of the NFL free agency, even as the Jets and Packers are stuck in limbo. Come on, God damn it! Come on, let's go, let's go! Let's go! Waiting for the 39-year-old to decide his NFL future.

Lazard is a close friend of Aaron Rodgers, has been in touch with Rodgers recently. Much like everybody else, Alan Lazard is waiting to see what Aaron Rodgers is going to do. I want the Randall Cobbs of the world if he wants to keep playing in my locker room. Guys you can win with, Rodgers said at the end of the season. Yeah, and I want to fuck the King sisters.

That was Uncle Junior. Somebody like that. No, he goes, I want to fuck Angie Dickinson. Let's see who gets lucky first. Yeah, I think that would be fucking one fun fit. Because that is the media capital. And he'll either love it or go, you know, I'm not talking to you guys the rest of the year. Let's move on to Christians being punished.

Well, Christian basketball team, a girls basketball team, being punished by Marxist jerk-off head of the school. Last month, the girls varsity basketball team at Mid-Vermont Christian school forfeited a playoff game rather than compete against Long Trail Mountain, a team that has a male player who claims to be female. Now the Vermont Principals Association, why do we do everything by association, has decided to punish the Christian school as a result. Well, of course they have. Anyway, so the Principals Association has decided to punish the Christian school as a result. Okay?

Fuck you! Fuck you! I agree, Christian school. Fuck you! Of course they do. school. Of course they do. Because people that make up things like a principal's association at a college or a high school, whatever the hell it is, they'd rather outlaw Christianity. That's how fucking left-wing they are. It's not an exaggeration. I'm sure they'd do the same thing if the shoe was on the other foot, you know. On Monday, the VPA, that's the principal associate, released a statement banning MVCS from all VPA-sanctioned activities and tournaments going forward. In other words, MVCS, a school that teaches pre-K

all the way up to the 12th grade, cannot participate at any athletic or interscholastic event that falls under the VPA's purview. The vote from VPA's executive board comprising of 15 members, guess what? It was unanimous because those Marxist cocksuckers walk just like the Nazis do,

lockstep. No one steps out of line. If you don't want to follow VPA rules, that's fine. Listen to the smug glibness of this jerk off Jay Nichols, the VPA executive director. There he is. Fucking jerk off.

If you don't want to follow VPA's rules, that's fine, said Jay Nichols, VPA's executive director. But then you're just not a VPA member. It's fairly simple. That's really all. No, it isn't simple. No, it isn't simple. Because if there was a whatever. I'm trying to think of a better example of friggin if it was offending a, you know, the trans thing. Didn't you bring that up earlier? Yeah. But let's say it was offending a Muslim.

But even if let's say a trans person doesn't want to play against a straight white male then that would be a problem yeah exactly or another religion you know they'd be like well it's Muslim we can't step it on you're just you're a coward you're the reason this country sucks right now you're a ballist coward

I suggest if you love fucking Marxism go live somewhere else that's all really we're going to say about it you're a crumb creep You've loved fucking Marxism, so go live somewhere else. That's all really we're going to say about it. You're a crumb creep. The rules to which Nichols referred are the VPA's so-called best practices, listen to this, for schools regarding transgender and gender nonconforming students. Those best practices demand that Christian schools jettison their religious beliefs

and instead allow supposedly transgender and gender nonconforming students to participate in physical education and sports in accordance with the student's gender identity. Okay, they can. They can participate in sports. Start your own league. Because it's really unfair to have what is a biological male,

just because he calls himself abroad, playing against biological females. And you're going to lose this one in the end. However, MVCS head of school, Vicky Fogg, apparently she's the only one that's not in one, seen here with teeth like mine, and admittedly, adamantly, sorry, dude, honestly, we've got to adjust. My eyes are, they get exhausted as the day goes on. Everything's blurred.

Look at me. School Vicky Fogg adamantly defended the decision to withdraw the girls. Good for you. We withdrew from the tournament because we believe playing against an opponent with a biological male jeopardizes the fairness of the game. Don't put the safety shit unless you're talking football or something. And the safety of our players, which is true. It's unfair. soccer, football, or something, and the safety of our players, which is true. It's unfair. Fogg wrote to Fox News Digital late February,

allowing biological males to participate in women's sports sets a bad precedent for the future of women's sports. Sets a bad precedent. It destroys it, eliminates it. Yes, sir. Sorry, no. I didn't mean to say that, lady. I know you're a lady. That's what happened.

Feminism came full circle and now it's most unfair against women. It's pushing you guys out of the public eye. Remember we did a story a couple weeks ago they gave out Women of the Year Awards and like

on one day there were a bunch of them for different things and like two of them were transgender. They were actually guys getting Women of the Year awards. Yeah, we're not fucked up in this country.
