I don't have to remind you all that the moment
Starting point is 00:02:18 in which we currently live is one that prioritizes the inverse of whatever makes men strong, healthy, and capable. The quality of our food continues to decline. Everything around us contains plastic, and the virtues of beauty and strength are under constant attack by the spiteful mutants, forced upon us by the culture. To sustain ourselves, we have to take physical action that cultivates and revitalizes our spirit. We must return to being builders of culture instead of consumers of its cheap, synthetic airsats.

Starting point is 00:03:57 and degenerates that call weakness strength. Without action, there is only decay. Man, oh man, do we do a very good job with our ads or what and our thumbnails continue to impress ever since the very beginning we've had the best thumbnails all right we're back once again for another episode of pony express radio uh of course i'm mr redhawk i'm joined tonight by mr not me not you how are you sir doing great guys it's another beautiful day on god's earth yes indeed it is uh welcome back once again is mr piquinonez how are you sir Doing good. Let's get going on this. Yeah, exactly. We got important stories. The audience is begging, you know, for our takes on this week's news. We dare not delay.
Starting point is 00:04:52 Welcome me back once again, it's just a raging mandrel. How are you, sir? Oh, you know, doing great as usual. I have to say that our thumbnails have been particularly good the past two or three weeks. They've been absolute bangers. Yeah, I love them. Doug does a good job. making his return once again, just a Ryan Turnip Seed. How are you, Ryan? I'm doing very well. I'm a bit apprehensive.
Starting point is 00:05:15 I don't know if I can live up to the astute geopolitical expositions that was the last episode, but I'll do my best with the cultural commentary. Can we knock it off on complimenting Doug too much, right? All righty. We don't want him getting too full of himself in demanding a raise or anything like that.
Starting point is 00:05:37 All righty. let's um uh do we have any housekeeping to deal with uh no not really at the moment um more announcements uh to be coming shortly so watch this space um if you guys are about it you'll know most likely what this is referring to but uh watch the space all right let's get into uh the news uh for this week uh as the thumbnail suggests uh one of the things that we have to talk about today is the uh congressional uh hearings for the confirmation of um trump's cabinet picks and man oh Man, have there been some highlights from these? Most notably from, like, the absolute horrible people that are on the Democrat side grilling a bunch of these characters.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Most notably around Pete Hegseth. Let's start right here. I mean, can I just say, Macy Hirono, I saw like some clips of her throughout the last couple of years. I don't know if she was around during the Trump administration. She might have been a little bit. But this woman might be dumber than Kamala Harris. She is really gunning for that dumbest person in U.S. government award. It's really, really up there.
Starting point is 00:06:38 We've got people who are, you know, literally on the brink of death like Diane Feinstein was, and this woman might even be dumber than her. So let's listen in on her intense grilling of Pete Higgs-eth. You recently promised some of my Republican colleagues that you stopped drinking and won't drink if confirmed, correct? Absolutely. Will you resign as Secretary of Defense if you drink on the job, which is. is a 24-7 position. I've made this commitment on behalf of the men and women.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Will you resign as Secretary of Defense if you train on the job? I've made this commitment on the most important deployment of my life. I'm not hearing an answer to my question. So I'm going to move on. She sounds like she had a few before getting into that seat. So I got on. Just, no, no, Hawaii, you're not sending your best at all,
Starting point is 00:07:40 Hawaii, let's just get rid of that state. We'll bring, Greenland can be number 50. Yeah, really? I mean, we could bring back the concept of having large swaths of territories as territories. You know, they don't have to have senators and representatives. Based, yeah, make them like Guam. Make them like Puerto Rico. Yeah, we're not.
Starting point is 00:08:05 Yeah, we're not. That was a creation by none other than Mr. John Slaughter. So a shout out to him. Longhouse hell. Yeah, really. We've got the best creators. I mean, it's one of these things. Like, look at that.
Starting point is 00:08:24 Like, none of those women have any place talking to Hezga this way. And, you know, it's just absolutely insane that they were elected in the first place. but that's where we are. Yeah. Some of the other clips were they were asking questions of Hanks' alleged like drunkenness when he was at Fox News. There are questions about his alleged sexual escapades with various women.
Starting point is 00:08:55 You know, it was just long housing to the core. I mean, this is just such a ridiculous line of questioning. They're so stupid. I mean, something that's worth pointing out is that a great many so-called conservatives hold this first-wave feminist idea that these people are actually the civilizers of a society.
Starting point is 00:09:18 Just ponder that, that people that call themselves right-wingers support that idea. If I remember correctly, people like Doug Wilson, hilariously, the leader of Hegg-Seth's denomination, if memory serves me correctly, hold such a position. This is
Starting point is 00:09:34 what civilization looks like to some people. Boy, I got to tell you, Ryan, been on an absolute tear with this topic for the last like year or so in change. And one of the favorite streams I've ever done, actually, is the one we did on your show. It must have been like over a year and a half ago at this point when we were discussing this feminist issue for more of like a traditional Christian conservative lens. I mean, yeah, it's something that he's addressing. Terrible consequences for us.
Starting point is 00:10:02 And we don't even hold the position. We repute it. Shut up. silly woman yeah yeah that's pretty much the only the only right response I mean
Starting point is 00:10:14 you know it's such a clown show that if Hegseth like responded with that to them I mean I don't even know if anyone would be that upset I mean he's certainly a greater man than I am and uh
Starting point is 00:10:30 addressing like this talking down from all these women and keeping his cool the whole time because, man, I would just... It's just like such a kangaroo court. This guy's supposed to be in charge of the armed forces, right? You know, Secretary Defense. It's like, oh, okay. I'm going to take orders from these women
Starting point is 00:10:47 and I can literally rip apart every one of them with my bare hands. Uh-huh. I mean, don't forget. This line of questioning is so ridiculous because... I mean, I hate to call it hypocrisy because it doesn't work, but, like, Lloyd Austin, Secretary of Defense, under the Biden admin. Literally
Starting point is 00:11:07 I mean, that's all you need to say, right? But even still, like, they are corrected it's a 24-7 position, but at the same time, you're saying, well, hold on, this guy had, like, multiple health crises and was basically missing an action
Starting point is 00:11:31 for a substantial period of time when the actual acting in office president had no idea where he was at. Like, it's just completely ridiculous that you're asking this, dude, this level, this question, because it implies a level of scrutiny that is well above what they expect for their own side. Sorry to call it hypocrisy. I know it doesn't work. No, it just shows you that the feminist state is a police state, right? It's like, oh, we're going to have investigative journals watching Pete Hague sets every single move,
Starting point is 00:12:01 even following him into the bathroom so he doesn't like, take a drink of a beer or something that was out at a bar with his friends. It's like, oh, sir, you've been caught at a congressional, you know, dinner with, uh, well, various politicians and you're having a cocktail, sir. That means we get to remove you from this position because you said under oath you're not going to drink anymore. It's just like, just, fuck you. I mean, it's just, it's pure pageantry.
Starting point is 00:12:24 Like these women are speaking to their base, which what we see from voting data is single women. Unmarried women love this stuff. Mostly because they can, you know, feel powerful by living vicariously through these hags. It's really something. Trying my best not to let my inner Sean Connery come out if I was in a hagg's S position. Employers, rewarding your staff?

Starting point is 00:13:52 Find out more at airgrid.i.4 slash Northwest. But it doesn't end there with some of the grillings. let's go on to Attorney General Pam Bondi which I have to say you can say whatever you want about Donald Trump but at least he actually picks attractive women I mean I don't think there's ever been like a woman that's like a total fucking slag that has been part of any of his administrations could anyone think of one I don't think so
Starting point is 00:14:21 no based but there is a there's like a real genetic link between like attractiveness and intelligence so yeah very true people for the job You really think Kellyanne, you really think Kellyanne Conway was all that? She's certainly better than all these Democrats we've had on screen. I'll tell you that much. I mean, if we're comparing, sure, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:47 All right, let's listen into Maisie Hirono once again, giving her expert grilling of Pam Bondi. Blurring her words. I believe that you responded to a question from Senator Whitehouse, and let me get your response again. You said that the White House, if I'm putting words in your mouth, correct me. You said that the White House will play no role in investigative or charging decisions in the DOJ. Is that correct? Senator, what I said is that it is the Department of Justice's decision to determine what cases will be prosecuted. What role will the White House have in investigative or prosecutorial decisions of the DOJ?
Starting point is 00:15:31 It is the Department of Justice's decision, Senator. So that sounds to me that you're saying that the White House will not have any kind of role. Meanwhile, though, you have an incoming president who said, I have the absolute right to do what I want to do with the Justice Department. And in fact, President Elect Trump considers the DOJ to be his law firm. I ask you this. If President Elect Trump asks, suggests, or hints that you as Attorney General should investigate one of his perceived political enemies, would you do so? Senator Hirono, I wish you had met with me.
Starting point is 00:16:14 Had you met with me, we could have discussed many things and gotten to know me. I am listening to you now. Could you respond to the question? Yeah, you were the only one who refused to meet with me, Senator. But what we would have discussed is that it is the job of the attorney judge. general. I'm very happy to listen to your responses under oath, Ms. Bondi. So I love how she's trying to like grill Pam Bondi on oh well what is the president's administration going to have with the DOJ and the attorney general literally Trump gets to
Starting point is 00:16:47 pick who runs the fucking DOJ and who is the attorney general. Oh, I guess the White House has no role in this. This is ridiculous. I think cabinet picks were supposed to be, you know, serving at the pleasure of the president. I remember hearing this when I was watching West Wing like 10 years ago or something, whenever it was on in the 90s. I thought that the, it sounds
Starting point is 00:17:10 like what she's referring to is, is Trump is the White House going to be picking the cases to prosecute? Like, is he going to, the question I believe is, is he are they going to be just taking orders from the White House about Trump? Trump is,
Starting point is 00:17:28 going to be prosecuting his enemies. I mean, we can hope that's what's going to happen, but I think that's what the, what the just of the question is all about. Yeah, it's just asked in a very low IQ way. I mean, it also sounds like she was asking, if your boss orders you to do something within the purview of your abilities,
Starting point is 00:17:50 will you do it? Like, implying that it would be a negative thing. Like, I don't watch the news, right? So I'm usually pretty blissfully unaware of the quality of our elected leaders. And every time I see it, I'm reminded that we're farther gone that I thought. Also, I might be talking out of my ass here because this might be like a situation from like die hard where she goes about Miss Janaro or something. But I'm just looking at Maisie Heronzo's desk name. like Miss Hirono.
Starting point is 00:18:29 I don't know. Unmarried, single woman. Ooh. I would also just like to point out something. We talk a lot about these things becoming what's popularly termed humiliation rituals. It's not because you have to watch stupid people doing stupid things with power.
Starting point is 00:18:46 That's certainly existed since the dawn of time. It's more just that when you watch all these hearings and these governmental processes unfold, Once upon a time these things were instituted because there is a shred of competence within them. It's not just that someone had this idea that there's an administrative state, and we need to do things administratively, so we need to have confirmation hearings and whatnot else. Once upon time, these things serve to screen men, in particular, of competencies to make sure that they could carry out the roles needed to preserve public order. but here we are watching two women, one of these senators who would not have had the possibility of becoming an American citizen at the founding of this country, make a complete fool out of the whole process on its own.
Starting point is 00:19:39 I think that it might be good for all of us in particular to have the sort of time horizon as we continue to look at current events, just because these things did serve a purpose once. They were productive once. And the thing that makes it unproductive is not the fact that it's the government doing it or that it's administrative or whatever else. It's very much who is within this process that makes it unproductive in a humiliation ritual, as we put it. This is ever more disgraceful as you learn more about the history of the country. Yeah, I mean, like you said, Ryan, the purpose of this before was to actually grill highly capable men if they were actually up to the task of ruling a government.
Starting point is 00:20:27 And now today it's literally just for the cameras, basically where you can catch people in linguistic traps of things they said on their tweets, like Macy Hirono herself, which is quoting a Donald Trump tweet saying that, oh, as the president, he has the right to, I forget what she said, but you get the whole point. They're basically just trying to catch these people
Starting point is 00:20:47 in media manipulation, like word games so they could blast it all over like MSNBC and say, look, we caught Pete Hegseth and a lie. Look, he's at the bar drinking a cocktail, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. It's just, why am I wasting my time, like with any of this shit? Why is anybody having to waste their time with us? We actually have, like, real work that needs to be done. But, you know, it's the nature of the beast now.
Starting point is 00:21:12 Yeah, it's, you know, we got here from universalizing the franchise, and the people are retarded. So this is all that they can engage with. with. When you have an administrative state, you have to have people out front pretending like they're doing something, pretending like these people, like they're the people who are being confirmed are actually going to be able to do something. And this has all been performative up to now. I mean, whether these people are being actually sworn in to actually do something is yet to be seen. But, I mean, you have to put on this air. You have to make it look like
Starting point is 00:22:01 this is a serious thing. Like, this could possibly change things. And the problem is, is we've just been dumbed down to the point where we have a lady who I don't want her serving me food, you know, asking questions. I wouldn't want her. I don't want her anywhere near me. If she walked up to me, I'd be like, no, I don't have any spare change. She wouldn't even have to open her mouth. That would be my response. No, I mean, there were some other grillings that were going on with, like, Marco Rubio and others. We don't really have to get into that here.
Starting point is 00:22:40 But it's just, it's not just like a clown show. And I totally agree with not me, not you, in the sense of, like, I don't watch the news. So when I see these clips, like, go on my timeline. I don't know if you guys get this as well, but like, if you have like normie conservative friends or normie, like Fox News watching, like, family members or something like that,
Starting point is 00:23:00 and they bring up the latest like controversy because like, I guarantee you what is going on Fox News tonight is like, Pam Bondi, eviscerates, um, you know, Macy Herono in congressional hearings or yada, yada,
Starting point is 00:23:11 and you kind of just like it caught as a deer in the headlights. Like, no, I don't pay attention to any of this stuff because, like I'm actually focusing on the, like the real shit. the actual overarching issues. And I was having a discussion over the weekend
Starting point is 00:23:24 about this one, my buddy Ryan Stone. We were talking about the Canada situation. And it seems to me like these arguments that you always have in these Normie conservative spheres, they're always trying to get you to lock in on the very small detail and hyper-focus on that
Starting point is 00:23:42 while not focusing on the actual overall thing. So, for example, Marco Rubio goes up there. He talks about something about like, directionally the United States taking a bigger interest in China and like okay well he got a statistic wrong well who really cares about that like is the overall idea the United States needs to be paying attention to China more is that more correct than it is like is it more correct than it's not and I say yes so that's the important part not the oh look at this politician they said it'll lie it's like
Starting point is 00:24:10 well no fucking shit all politicians lie yeah it's uh it's what you know um academic agent calls low politics and you know we engage in low politics weekly for you the viewer so you can be entertained. Employers, did you know you can now reward you and your staff with up to 1500 euro and gift cards annually completely tax-free and even better you can spread it over five different occasions. Now's the perfect time to try options card. Options card is Ireland's brand new multi-choice employee gift card packed with unique features that your staff will love. It's simple to buy,

Starting point is 00:25:31 While also becoming aware of what the normies think is important. So you're welcome. And give us your money for all the time and all the blood and the sweat and the tears. We do researching for this stream so you don't have to. Any other final comments about it? our longhouse government sold. All right. Speaking of long house governments,
Starting point is 00:25:59 why don't we look to one that's across the pond, actually, this one being the United Kingdom and their ongoing issues with Elon Musk raising the question of these grooming gangs that have basically been part and parcel of life in the UK and all the major cities for 40 plus years at this point. People will know this on Christmas Day. we were talking about a jeet gate and quickly after that um uh Elon went overseas and has been talking
Starting point is 00:26:29 about the grooming gang crisis now um this has kind of come to a head at this point because now there are calls in the UK Parliament for national inquiries and it was this week that the Labor Party all unanimously voted against having a national inquiry while the conservative party who just got booted out of power uh we're trying to launch this not saying that the conservatives are good people they increased all the immigration under their tenure. Anyway, oh yeah, here's another thing that was going around.
Starting point is 00:26:57 Ex-Labor MP was found trying to have relations with the boy. So he got caught by one of these like Catch a Predator stings. So that's the state of the UK government right now. What else, fellas? Yeah, I do want to know if this was maybe we could reconsider
Starting point is 00:27:19 that zero seats might have had some bad consequences that maybe isn't helping several Native Britons at this point in time? I don't know. I don't have much to say on the state of the actual going sound of like the electoral business of going on the UK and stuff. But I mean, I certainly wouldn't want to be living under a labor government right now.
Starting point is 00:27:45 I'll tell you that much. I mean, it's very possible. The whole reason that these things were allowed to come out and be amplified the way that they are is so that it could be a black mark on labor. I mean, the politicians in all of the Anglo-Sphere countries seem to be so callous and evil that they would just use this as a cudgel. And the reason it's even being discussed is so that they can have it harm their, quote-unquote, enemies across the aisle.
Starting point is 00:28:18 But, I mean, it's, for any of our listeners who haven't been paying close attention, to the rape gang stuff. Don't. Suffice to say when people are saying that all of our solutions are fed posts, it's an understatement. Particularly in their context where you had 40 years of the government, the police, the media, all levels of British society were covering up
Starting point is 00:28:49 the ethnic and targeted raping of young British girls by Pakistani immigrants. And I will tell you there are some articles out there. I went on Occidental Observer and they have some articles talking about exactly what's going on over there. It's really dark shit.
Starting point is 00:29:08 And if you're going to read it, you'd really need to prepare yourself and you really need to be able to know how to come out of it. Because it's the kind of stuff that stays with you. So, yeah, there's that.
Starting point is 00:29:25 Don't, you know, if you're, if you have a tendency to be like me and get to the point where Fed posting is, you know, the moderate solution, then, you know, maybe avoid looking into exactly what's been happening there. Yeah, remember knowledge is at prison. You can't unknow something once you've learned it. Yeah, very fair. And while all this is going on as well, the UK is locking up people for social media tweets. This was a big thing during the Southport riots.
Starting point is 00:30:08 The recurring late last year went a, let's just call him a non-British person, because we still actually don't know all the details of the case, because the British government has quietly covered up everything about this guy's background. So some people are saying he's Christian, some Islamic, some, you know, say he was Ethiopian. whatever it was. He's clearly not anyone who had been recognized as British a hundred years ago, clearly, when it stabbed three girls at a Taylor Swift dance party in Southport, England. And there were a bunch of riots that ensued because, you know, people pretty much had enough. This has been going on for such a long time. The government clearly doesn't have the protection of its, you know, heritage citizens in mind. And rather than address the issue of removing these people who have been
Starting point is 00:30:54 them brought into this country and have caused nothing but hardship, they'd rather just jail anybody who talks out about it, which has brought them into direct conflict with one Elon Musk, as he's been, you know, ever since he bought Twitter, has been chanting about, you know, he's been drumming up free speech calls, right? And it's actually been coming to the point where many people, the European Union and the British state are saying that we need to arrest Elon Musk for interference in our country, which brings us to this blurb right here that we've got right in front of us, is that the UK government and the Labor Party were actively sending over staff members
Starting point is 00:31:40 to the United States and swing states for the election, which is election interference from foreign power. It's very disappointing that Elon Musk is responding to Ian Miles Chong. I, you know, man, like after the whole H-1B thing, you got to pick your friends better. Well, there's certainly that. Yeah. But, I mean, again, like kind of like how Major was talking about earlier, like we're not about pointing out like hypocrisy here, right? Because obviously it doesn't make any sense.
Starting point is 00:32:16 You know, it doesn't actually solve the issue. You know, who do you do? We know that nobody is playing a fair game here, right? But it's just rich to see from the UK government talking about, oh, well, Elon Musk is interfering in our country's affairs because he's bringing to light an issue that should have been addressed a long time ago, which is literally the systemic rape of so many of our most precious youth for years and years at this point. I think there are some of the numbers that were coming out in some of these areas, because it's not the women that are doing the raping, but it's one and two, Pakistani men in some of these areas are convicted of a sex crime. It's like, holy shit. How do you just not like immediately remove all these people at the drop of a hat?
Starting point is 00:32:56 And then in the same breath say, oh, well, we're going to send people in the labor party over to campaign, you know, for Kamala Harris in the United States. Yeah, it really shows you what a kind of bullet we dodged with Kamala. And alas, for all the retards who were saying that it would have been better if Kamala had won. You know, the only thing that she represented was an increase in the anarcho tyranny that the British, state now represents and really has been a poster child of anarcho tyranny since I think the 90s. When was it that Sam Francis coined the term? Wasn't he talking about Great Britain then as well? Either way, we can expect the attempt of anarcho tyranny to increase because that's how managerialism stays in power
Starting point is 00:33:58 which prevents people from being able to organize properly against, well, for their own better interests. I will say... Oh, you go first. Okay. So I'll say that the interesting
Starting point is 00:34:13 observation to make with this whole Elon Musk versus the labor government spat and of course the actions in being done that are to counter this Elon's verbal attacks here, This is interesting for me because it looks kind of like somebody who is ostensibly a supporter of Trump and is therefore going to have some, at least from what we hear, that he's going to have some kind of cabinet position, government, high-level government position, very influential by name. And this person is criticizing a foreign government for an obvious abuse.
Starting point is 00:34:52 this makes this is interesting to me because it looks like at least on the American right there is now a tacit realization that labor in any sort of like left wing governance in the European sphere
Starting point is 00:35:12 it is actually a net negative for American geopolitical interests and I think that's notable because we have this conception, at least from the paradigm of the last, you know,
Starting point is 00:35:28 several decades that, oh, if there's a right-wing figure anywhere, they get color revolutioned and installed with somebody else who's not. And I think possibly an early indicator of this reversal of a trend, of that trend, was Ukraine maybe.
Starting point is 00:35:47 But this is interesting to me because it's a fracture in, or a possible fracture point in the system, if that makes sense. There's something else to consider here as well, putting this in perspective. Ten years ago, 2000, start 2015. Employers, did you know, you can now reward you and your staff, with up to 1500 euro and gift cards annually, completely tax-free, and even better.

I can't think of a single billionaire that was overtly right-wing enough to mention things like the grooming games, or grooming gangs, of which the word grooming itself was a euphemism. In fact, most of the very, very rich men around the world were overtly sponsoring very left-wing policies that were destroying nations. Someone like Soros comes to mind, which, once again, putting this in perspective,
Starting point is 00:37:35 I think Musk has mentioned Soros. If not him, it was someone close to him. I remember seeing this about a month ago or so. So this is quite a long ways that we've developed where the world's richest man now has made his personal crusade to talk about the ethnic replacement and the subsequent crimes and defilement that was being committed by them in a European country. This was unthinkable perhaps 10 years ago, this idea that you could have someone with such power and wealth and influence taking our side. in something, even though this isn't the only issue of ours, he's flubbed an issue recently. This is still why perhaps you, I, and everyone else around us here at the OGC might remain at least outwardly optimistic, is because this is a very welcome change in the last 10 years,
Starting point is 00:38:31 someone like must taking our side. It opens the door for other figures like him amongst his cast for certain. Yeah, I mean, the most interesting thing about this as well, like you were talking about Manjo about how Musk, as it stands right now, we actually don't know what this position is going to entail, but it's going to have some kind of role in the Trump government, which is coming in in just four days, boys. Be sure to buckle up. Everyone make their trips to McDonald's on Monday, pay homage. But it's interesting how it's almost like a new kind of political sanction in the sense of, okay, we're not going to sanction.
Starting point is 00:39:11 you with like economic goods or or military equipment or something like this but we're just going to take this entire massive social media apparatus that I own and I'm going to point it in the direction of you and wield it as a weapon which is very very interesting in that because if Elon Musk doesn't tweet like he has for weeks now about the Groomy gang stuff every single day and forcing the news cycle to bend to his will you don't get the hearings that are currently happening in you know, the houses of parliament about opening up into national inquiries, whether anything
Starting point is 00:39:46 actually gets solved from this remains to be seen, but that's very interesting at the least. It just shows how powerful the weapon Twitter actually is. We got an amazing metaphysical and media victory out of the denial of the
Starting point is 00:40:02 inquiries at least, the absolutely ghoulish portrait of I think it was Phillips, you know, with her nose upturned, laughing, the very toothy smile, the dark eyes from her front bench position. It was terrifying. You can show that to normal people, people who are otherwise very materialistic and secular, and they would probably call such an expression evil, which I find to be interesting, at least.
Starting point is 00:40:35 Yeah, absolutely. So we'll keep an eye on this one. It'll be interesting. I mean, I just don't find it productive, the discussion about, oh, like, like, well, Elon got bodied on the H-1B stuff, so this is a complete distraction to get people back into his good graces. It's like, well, Elon's useful to us as long as he's useful to us, right? It's like, I'm not like 100% loyal to the guy as a guy,
Starting point is 00:41:02 but I still see him being in the position of the government far more preferable to anyone that was coming in the Kamala Harris administration. I mean, yeah, I mean, it's also like, by their fruits, you shall know them, right? if he does good things, we should support him doing good things. When he says stupid things or does bad things, we should let him know he's doing stupid and bad things. You have to worship the man and you don't have to cast him out as a devil. He's just a guy who has an amazing amount of influence who seems to be able to be swayed by the people that are screaming at him. on his social media website.
Starting point is 00:41:51 I mean, it's basically, when was the... Well, I mean, this is just something brand new. It's because the internet and because social media has become what it's become, you can actually... You actually have a chance to mobilize and get, you know, the quote-unquote richest man. Last time I said richest man in the world on the... on the,
Starting point is 00:42:17 on the stream, somebody came into the comments and said, oh, he's not the richest man in the world. Oh, actually. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:24 Yeah. But, I mean, this is something new where you can actually sway opinion. And I know a lot of people say, no, that's not what happening.
Starting point is 00:42:36 If he changes, if he changed his mind on something, that means he meant to change his mind on something. He's not throwing you a bone. He doesn't care what you. Okay, whatever. As long as we got our way, I don't give a fuck.
Starting point is 00:42:46 Yeah, I'm so tired of the discussion about how, oh, well, all these people who are, you know, in positions of power and getting into position to power in the government are like they intentionally have been doing this long con in their brains to like, you know, sway 1,000 people on like a like a group chat on Twitter. Like, this is just not, this is just ridiculous. Oh, no, they'll literally tell you they'll be like, he's just doing that. they're just doing that to to make you believe they want to do I'm like well why why do they care about me yeah exactly
Starting point is 00:43:24 why would they care about my opinion on anything so shut the fuck up well it the other thing too Pete is like they should be caring about your opinion like infinite times more
Starting point is 00:43:36 than like the average person who leaves a comment right it's like right but and then the other the other hole in this idea of the sort of omnipotent elite trying to constantly sigh off us is that at once the elite don't
Starting point is 00:43:52 care what the populace think and they can just do whatever they want but on the other hand apparently 99% of the effort intention of the elite is geared towards siopping us the populace into doing what they want to support to give them support it doesn't quite make sense to me if they're just going to do what they want anyway why do they want our support why would they want why would they want why would they they signal to us in any way, shape, or form. Doesn't make any fucking sense. It is really just like a friggin, an attitude of, nothing will ever get, I mean,
Starting point is 00:44:27 it's the ultimate blackpilling is what it is. It's just people who, if you're blackpilled, I figured this out a few weeks ago. If you're blackpilled, you can never be wrong on anything. You can always find an argument the way out, you know, I'm wrong on stuff, I've been wrong with stuff in the past. I'll be wrong on stuff tomorrow. be wrong on stuff today.
Starting point is 00:44:48 People don't want to be wrong because they're scared they're going to be wrong and somebody's going to call them out for it. Yeah, it's very... Give them fuck. Yeah, it's very main character syndrome that you have with all these people. I mean, you see
Starting point is 00:45:01 it all the time when people get into like petty squabbles and fights with people on Twitter over their like 3,000 follower account, right? And you really just have to kill your ego with so many of these things. And I was actually, again, pointing this, I was talking with buddy
Starting point is 00:45:17 Ryan Stone about this over the weekend. It's like just take a peek into like Lefty Twitter sometimes and see how like one tweet about how we should keep tampons in boys and girls in boys bathrooms at meta gets like 12 million likes.
Starting point is 00:45:34 It's like, oh okay, yeah, these elites are really going out of their way to say things that appeal to the like 0.001% of the popular in order to win like an electoral victory. Like I don't really,
Starting point is 00:45:50 this argument is just ludicrous to me. Maybe it actually just is like, oh, wow, like a bunch of us have been right on the major things that have mattered over the last 10 years and we have a very out, like disproportionate amount of influence given to the amount of number of people that we have. It's like, oh, wow, maybe there's actually some good ideas here.
Starting point is 00:46:09 Maybe people's minds can be changed. Either way, pointing the entire apparatus of Twitter, at your political opponents and people overseas is very, very interesting. We'll see what develops of this. So, all right, fellas. Let's turn our attention over to California, once again, with the wildfire situation. Obviously, we talked about this last week, about all the damages has been ripping through. We've now gotten a bit of like a headcount of whose places have burned down, Mel Gibson's house,
Starting point is 00:46:46 a Burntown. He actually had an interesting clip on Foxx. news going around where he was like, well, I've been relieved of my possessions, which is definitely very interesting take. But I know there was also, I don't know if I am, anyone has the answer to this, but I saw this going around that like, did Robert Sefer end up losing this house? I know like he was tweeting about how he evacuated. I don't know if we ended up getting an update on that one. But anyway, as Doug has shown us on screen here, one of the people that they caught for arson is in fact a illegal immigrant. Shocker, shocker, shocker.
Starting point is 00:47:20 Employers, did you know you can now reward you and your staff with up to 1500 euro and gift cards annually completely tax-free and even better, you can spread it over five different occasions. Now's the perfect time to try Options Card. Options Card is Ireland's brand new multi-choice employee gift card packed with unique features that your staff will love.

Brown, uh, trying to pretend like he didn't do anything wrong when he was caught red-handed. Like it's, uh, it's a real thing, man. I, we should have listened. We should have gotten rid of all of our nuclear plants. We should have, uh, you know, we should have turned off everything, all the coal. This guy wouldn't have come in. This is it wouldn't happen. Well, He was doing nothing with that blow torch. You know, he didn't do muffin. You know, he was just trying to light a fire in his backyard, right?
Starting point is 00:49:03 Yeah, I mean, kudos for using map gas. That stuff does burn hotter than propane. So, you know, it's the patrician's choice, really. Yeah, well, I'm glad that you brought up the point of the climate change debate because, again, we talked about this last week when Sandbatch was here, but it's just climate change is just this amorphous term that means like any weather and pattern therefore means we have to give millions of dollars to like bill gates or any Democrat back to NGO which which was another thing that was going around and um you know i i have like mixed feelings
Starting point is 00:49:42 on community notes on twitter because a lot of times they are like kind of cringe but uh some of them like when they hit they really really hit and they were hitting with um how every single Democrat was tweeting out like this, oh, follow this link to send money to those affected by the fires. And the community notes just got a hold of them right away saying, no, this is literally act blue. This is, this is a Democrat fundraising website. These people are all liars.
Starting point is 00:50:09 I, I, that's, I hadn't heard that story. That is absolutely amazing. That is like, that is some Talmudic shit right there. Holy geez, man. Just straight up, just, just, just scamming. people. Yeah, it was a bunch of them. Gavin Newsom did it. Elizabeth Warren did it. I'm sure, a bunch of other ones too, but those were just a couple that I saw. But yeah, community notes got them. You, I mean, the BLM, if you remember from 2020, the whole BLM thing, if you went to BLM's
Starting point is 00:50:41 website and clicked on Donate, it went right to act blue. I, this is, yeah, I, I love, love this. like we just have a political party that nickels and dimes their constituents to death. They just rob them. Like, these guys already have so much damn money. They have to rob the people who vote for them. That's, I do remember that, Pete. And it's, I hope that the two houses of the, the BLM founder, or whatever her name is that burned down,
Starting point is 00:51:22 had their fire insurance policies canceled. I don't know that anybody's going to be, I mean, that's just one of those things where you're going to see them file bankruptcy or something like that. I mean, that's typical for insurance companies out there, but also, as our good friend, David Distributors, pointed out,
Starting point is 00:51:46 a lot of those houses just don't have insurance because insurance isn't available. Yeah, they're just fucked. Yeah, Dave did an excellent stream the other day. I was listening to it before we went live here, and I'll no doubt finish it after this. But the parts I've heard thus far have been excellent. So people haven't checked that out. Go and check out Dave the Distributed this stream after this one. But it's not just that we've got illegal aliens starting fires.
Starting point is 00:52:16 We've also got pictures of people who have been looting these houses of, like, evacuation areas. And you'll notice here, a lot of non-white faces here. Shocker. Second row all the way to the left. Is that Spick Ben Shapiro? It looks like I'm, God, what the hell is that character from, like, a, the dictator, like General Aladin or whatever.
Starting point is 00:52:51 Yeah, yeah. Sasha Baron Cohen. Yeah, yeah. It kind of looks like him. It looks like he got one guy in the top left-hand corner right there, one of Antifa neckbeard dude. The rest are your usual suspects.
Starting point is 00:53:06 You have the one Spanish-looking phenotype of Mexican. There you go. Yeah, yeah, there you go. Well, and really, the thing that's the most upset and piss. Most of these people are probably homeless. Oh, yeah, no doubt. And there's no...
Starting point is 00:53:23 How do you not just round... When you consider how big the homeless population is in California, how do you live there? How do you put up with it? How do you not demand that these people be picked up? And I don't care if you have to start building asylums again. Like, you know, public asylums, fuck Ronald Reagan. This needs to be
Starting point is 00:53:49 fucking handled. This is insane. One of the funniest things that I noticed from especially Gen Z leftists is that they'll hate Ronald Reagan in part because of the closing of the asylums. And I don't think
Starting point is 00:54:05 they realize that that would destroy quite a sizable proportion of their support base if the asylums were reconstructed and asylum attendees put back in them. Yeah, that's that's legitimate. But they've just forgotten. I mean,
Starting point is 00:54:24 so all of this coming to a head, like, so quickly at the beginning of the year, with everything else that's going on, I gotta tell you, I think the accelerationists are having a pretty good 2025 so far. This is, like, I feel like with the, just how heated all the discourse has been, and all of this,
Starting point is 00:54:50 this nonsense coming out all at once. It's even starting to crack through to the Normies. I was at dinner party yesterday with some Normies and some left-leaning people. And they were all about the crazy right-wing nonsense I was dropping on them. So it's having an effect. This is good. It's bad, but it's good. well there's certainly
Starting point is 00:55:20 a vibe shift that's just like undeniable at this point since the election I mean echoing much of the same thing you said not me not you I mean for the last couple months where I've been hanging out with Normies it's just it's no longer faux pa to be saying like very like right wing things around people anymore like people are very fed up they've seen which way the winds are
Starting point is 00:55:42 moving and it's it's interesting I mean, I'm not a West Coaster. I've only been to California like two times my entire life. I mean, I don't know, maybe, Manjali, you can speak on this a little bit more. But is this possible that this, like, actually breaks through the California mold? And, you know, Pete, you can say quite a bit on this, too, because fortuitously, this happened right at the same time. You and Thomas just finished your excellent series on the history of California. And I think one of the most important things that Thomas was stressing throughout the entire series was that this idea that California
Starting point is 00:56:15 It's just this permanent blue state literally for forever, and there's nothing that can be done. It's just ludicrous. California used to be the American dream. It was like the most right-wing state. I mean, Ronald Reagan came from California. Not that he's like the most right-wing character, but you get the message.
Starting point is 00:56:33 Yeah, yeah. Richard Nixon came from California. Yeah, there you go. Dang, you jinxed me. Turn up. You jinxed me. In the 80s, half of the guys like Tom Metzger, you know, the kind of guys I'm talking about, They were all out of California.
Starting point is 00:56:46 They were all out of Southern California. It was known as like, if you were white in the 70s, in the late 60s and the 70s, your goal was to make enough money to move to Southern California. Why? Because it was a paradise. You knew it was a paradise. What's happened to it is not something that happened because of, it was on purpose. And the way Thomas talks about it was like something was done around it was like some kind of deal was made behind the scenes to be like California is now a blue state. It's not that California, you know, because one of the ways you can know that it's really not a, it's not a blue state is every time they have a referendum there.
Starting point is 00:57:34 Yeah, because that's one of the things, the way their government is designed as a referendum vote if you're going to have like the gay marriage vote. in the 2000s, gay marriage was voted down in California. Yet when they vote for president, when they vote for president, it's like 70 to 75% that they vote for the Democrat. It makes no sense whatsoever. I mean, it sounds like a conspiracy theory,
Starting point is 00:58:00 but come on. I mean, if they're voting for, if they're like, no, we don't want gay marriage. And then they're all voting, then en masse,
Starting point is 00:58:07 they're voting for people who are promoting gay marriage. Well, I need to push back on this a little bit. because I remember that that particular proposition that was called Proposition 8 and that was in the 2008 election. So that was I mean, geez, that was almost 20 years ago now. I mean, it's a very long time ago. Like that's almost 15 plus years of diversification. It is greatly changed in just from, because I was there recently for the holidays and I cannot tell you how quick.
Starting point is 00:58:42 quick it has changed. Like even in the last 10 years, it's, it's just been, like, people used to joke about you know, San Angeles, you know, the old like demolition man, you know, joke that used to be made about San Diego and Los Angeles becoming one over big mega city. And well, it's sad to say, it's basically happening now. But the problem is, is that's in the worst way as possible, right? Now you're starting to have the demographic tipping point in places like San Diego and just, which is essentially, that's always been, because it has gigantic military bases there, it's always been more right-leaning, shall we say, than Los Angeles. And because you don't have certain groups there, that's to the same degree. But like, it's becoming the same way because you just have like graffiti on every single highway. just like there is in Los Angeles now.
Starting point is 00:59:39 And it's the same, it's getting much, much worse. And you could not believe how fast it's degrading. It's getting very bad. So I think a lot of people are comparing the 2008 election and then saying, well, okay, that's the same thing as now. And it's, no, it's a lot worse now. I mean, I think the point was, is that they still voted for the for the, for the, for the Democrat in the presidential election overwhelmingly. I mean, I look up the numbers, but I think they did. That was the only point I was trying to make. I wasn't, obviously, obviously it's become what it is, what you described. Yeah, I think there's a weird thing about California that I notice, especially among whites. Like you can even see that voting patterns among whites in California, they always typically vote lib. And I think a lot of this has to do with the 1960s culture. there's a lot of research that I want to do just for my own personal awareness on this front.
Starting point is 01:00:42 But the issue with California is like the whites there are just, it's almost inexplicable, right? Like it's almost like New England's in a way. Like why are these people voting Democrat? There's no real rhyme or reason for why they support this party unless you're like Gavin Newsom and you're directly benefiting from the system. And there's a lot of people in California who are not. directly who are white and not directly benefiting from the system in some way. And it's almost, it's the strangest thing to watch. And from what I see, just in terms of even an organization and stuff, there's a hesitancy to take one's own side. And I think that over the past 10 or 15 years,
Starting point is 01:01:26 the demographic tipping point has basically been reached. And so a lot of people are just, well, I don't want to rock the boat because now you're in a position of minority status. And if you start rocking the boat, then everybody else wants to gang up on you. And I think that's a hesitancy that needs to be broken through. Well, come what may, it just seems to me as an outsider looking in that more people are asking more questions to the state of California's mismanagement around these fires, whether it's the misallocation of direct city funds by this chirp that is running the city over there. Things like
Starting point is 01:02:14 DEI, things like the water mismanagement over the past couple decades, things like forest fires and not being able to clear the debris. It seems to me that this is a breaking point and they can't just rely on the old playbook of, oh well, this is just climate change.
Starting point is 01:02:30 It's like, I don't know. I think you can fall back on that argument when half your city didn't burn to the ground. But on this point, it seems to me like people are calling out for solutions. The crown is literally in the gutter. I felt
Starting point is 01:02:45 a blood memory when I heard that chirp. Are you secretly black, turnip? No, I know. I think it's in a different direction. Hmm. Fire water. All right.
Starting point is 01:03:04 All right. Why don't we take a link at some super chats here and then we can turn our attention to some other stories real quick. So running back into our fantastic Google Doc. Let's see, we got at the top of the order, we got TK. He's more prolific supershadders these days. I assume we recall he was at the top of the list last week, too.
Starting point is 01:03:27 But TK for 10 bucks, Wichita OGC represent salute. Like half of our chapter is in Europe right now, though. Oh, really? Strange reason. But, yes, get in touch with the Wichita guys, if you guys are in the area. um don browning for 20 australian dollars all right all right i'll keep quiet sandwich anyone uh thank you thank you very much uh don yes um we will appreciate you making sandwiches while uh the men are speaking and uh fix the issues of our time thank you very very much uh let's move on to uh portler for 20 bucks
Starting point is 01:04:02 no gipson has accepted the position of i i someone else uh pronounced the german i'm gonna butcher it Obergruppen Fuhr of Hollywood. Obergurperin. Yeah, there you go. See? All righty. I still need to watch that. I'm Mel Gibson interview from Joe Rogan. It's been on my back catalog for a while.
Starting point is 01:04:25 Well, you know what, do you know what he's referencing? No. In that, there was a apparently Trump named today that he was going to have ambassadors to Hollywood. and one of them was going to be one's Mel Gibson I can't remember one is John Boyt I can't remember who the other one is but yeah he's going to have
Starting point is 01:04:50 Slice Stallone just looked on yeah yeah yeah that's what I mean that's that actually is really smart Hollywood kind of is its own like states like a city state and the power that they have
Starting point is 01:05:08 in shaping the the minds of not just Americans, but people all over the world is second to none. So, you know, if you can't just take it over by force for whatever reason, then at least exerting some influence on it, when it's completely run by your enemies,
Starting point is 01:05:27 is definitely a smart move. One of the things I think is interesting is there's a, of those three people, something, they all have something in common that they're not. Let's move on to Sonah Astor from the new Ivy League, representing for five bucks, and he sends us a salute. I like how that's been like the calling card for everyone in the chat is the classic 07. I dig it.
Starting point is 01:05:57 Let's go on to Joshua Beebe for five bucks. In light of recent online BS, I want to suggest to young men starting out to join the military. You will only regret it when you are doing it. I mean I don't We got a couple of veterans on the panel here What do you think fellas? I mean, that's only true
Starting point is 01:06:19 If they don't stick your ass in Ukraine Or some other place I guess that's fair But yeah, the benefits are good for now I wrote an article on this actually It's called min-maxing the military situation And Basically my take is
Starting point is 01:06:40 don't join the military these days if you're a young guy to do a career. We need to be more tactical and smarter in how we leverage our manpower. And I think we need to give these, we need to be willing to use incentive and signaling when we get what we want politically from the system, then the system can get what it wants. And one of those things is military recruitment and basically personnel to actually keep the nation surviving and afloat and to have a strong military with which they can use as a foreign policy tool. Without that, or you have maybe perceptions abroad start forming as to the competency of the U.S. military and government by extension, and that causes additional follow-on problems.
Starting point is 01:07:31 And what we need to do is to say, okay, when we have a GOP governor or a more pro-white or I guess maybe less anti-white presidents, you know, at least it'll demonstrate that America is back once every four years or so. So I think we can use that to our advantage. Yeah, good point. I mean, on the whole military thing, I'm pleased that Pete Hegseth, being a veteran and being nominated for Secretary of Defense is not 85 years old. So at least that's, at least signaling to me some degree of a step in the right direction. Because I imagine that all of these upper class and like the old ass generals, like all of them just need to go.
Starting point is 01:08:24 He will need every ounce of vitality he has if he wants to turn the Navy around. Well, we wish him a good fortune in that endeavor. Let's go on to Jackson Walker, who sends us a salute for $13. Thank you very much. Ah, here we go. Our good friend, Hunger, the Dying Merchant, for $10. I hope you were doing well, my friend. For anyone who thinks the battle is over after the election,
Starting point is 01:08:49 just remember that people like Hirono or Schiff are in jail and aren't likely to be in the near future, no matter how many crabs start dancing are on Pelosi or McConnell. Yeah, that's a very good point. Keep your eye on the prize. All right. Count Arthur for 10 bucks. Congress became objectively worse at its job when C-SPAN started televising their debates and committees.
Starting point is 01:09:13 That is probably a very, very good point. They know they're on a daytime TV show, and they behave themselves accordingly. It's probably a very, very good point. All righty. Moving on to C-Sider, who, as always, sends us $10 and a salute. Thank you very much, sir. we've got hammering for five bucks has a number of official members surpass the capacity for the annual conference yet i imagine it's close well i would say this it absolutely has surpassed like if everyone can go but not everybody can go so
Starting point is 01:09:52 but no doubt in the future the national conference is going to be restricted to o gc chapter members only it will not be open to the public that is absolutely something that is going to happen to at some point in the future. So if you haven't gotten yourselves involved with the chapter yet, either form one or get involved with one in the future. Because if we keep growing at this rate like we did last year into this year, yeah, that's absolutely going to be something to address in the future. So get involved now.
Starting point is 01:10:22 Want to be an early adopter. Ethan W. Munster for two bucks. California for Ocean, 28. Yeah, well, you know, I am, uh, I don't know, I want to give up Yosemite, you know, or, or the Redwoods, but, uh, perhaps there's a different object that could be for Ocean 2008, maybe a mass. Hmm. Let's look at Bolero 393 for two bucks. Uh, rip to great Americans, uh, Bob Yucer and David Lynch. Yeah, you know what?
Starting point is 01:11:01 If you are a baseball fan, you are definitely a mourning. The excellent voice of Mr. Bob Yucer, who passed. And then, of course, I'm David Lynch as well. I know a lot of our guys are really big fans of Twin Peaks and a lot of his other films. Mahal and the original Dune that was made into a movie. So, yes, both these characters will be missed greatly. Let's see. opt three mid for 15 bucks.
Starting point is 01:11:32 Thanks for sharing gentlemen. Salute. Well, thank you very much. And we got Jay Forte, rest in peace to Bob Euker, baseball world mourns. Yes, yes. I mean, we've had discussions about this before, but baseball lends itself uniquely to the caster. And controversially, I actually think baseball is better listened to as opposed to watching. They're really just as a rich history of baseball broadcasters, you know, on the
Starting point is 01:11:57 radio and it's still very lively to this day. You know, like that it's, it really is quite a skill to be calling out pitches, balls, and strikes and plays on the field. And because it's a little bit more of a downer game that's something like a football, it really lends itself to excellent commentary. So it's an art that's going the wayside. But yeah, if you're an American, you absolutely should be enjoying the sport that your country founded.
Starting point is 01:12:21 And baseball is America's pastime, of course. So, let's do. Let's see. We got a Cringe Walker for 20 bucks. Despite my fears, Trump continues to prove the black pillars wrong. Here's hoping for a good inauguration. Yeah, certainly. I know plenty of guys will be heading to inauguration.
Starting point is 01:12:43 Be safe, gentlemen, and be lucky that you're going to be part of history being there. So I wish I could go. Cringe Walker once again for five bucks. fate has conspired for the inauguration to be on MLK Day. Truly, God is a comedian. That is true. All righty, that's us all caught up on the super chats. Let's turn over to another favorite country that we have to talk about.
Starting point is 01:13:15 Apparently, this came out a couple days ago, and people were kind of skeptical at first, but now over the last 24 hours is really just blown wide open. the apparent ceasefire in the Gaza-Israel conflict that started on October 7th over, God, it's about like 16 months ago now, something like that. I don't know. Our initial reactions, gentlemen, what I saw right away was just everyone in their grandmother trying to claim that they were a part of this.
Starting point is 01:13:43 It was like, oh, the Biden administration did a great job of getting this deal done. Oh, the Trump team did an amazing job of getting this done. Oh, the Israelis are really proud of this deal. The Palestinians are really proud. The Iranians. It's like everyone's just trying to get a part of, oh, look, we're the ones that got the peace deal done. Well, the thing that I noticed right away was, and I said this, is that Jews were going to melt down over this because they don't, most of them don't care about the hostages. The hostages is just a talking point.
Starting point is 01:14:19 I'm surprised already left at this point, to be honest. Yeah, I'm surprised. I think most think that they're probably dead. And they want this to continue. And it's remarkable to see. It's also remarkable to see like veterans of, you know, of the United States military like Kurt Schlichter saying, okay, get the hostages back and then go back in and kill them.
Starting point is 01:14:44 And, you know, I'm interviewing Bill Lynn, William Lynn tomorrow. Legend came up with the person who came up with the term fourth generation warfare. and one of the I was reading one of his articles and he talked about how there was no honor anymore there was like you know there was a time when the fighting stopped
Starting point is 01:15:06 and you went face to face with your enemy and said okay you go that way you go this we're going to go this way and to watch if you understand the whole idea of oh let's let's have a truce let's get our
Starting point is 01:15:24 And then let's go back in and kill him and just break the truce. Well, that's a very, read your Old Testament. That's a very Jewish thing. And it's remarkable to me that when you are occupied by a certain group of people, even your warriors start to act like them with no honor whatsoever. And I don't care if you say, oh, well, these are terrorists and they have no honor. so what if you make a deal
Starting point is 01:15:57 keep the fucking deal and I mean I think this all came about because I know people don't believe this but Trump really hates Netanyahu because for numerous reasons but obviously him sharing that
Starting point is 01:16:13 video of Jeffrey Sachs calling him a dark son of a bitch calling Netanyahu a dark son of a bitch there's a reason for that and then you see oh well we have I think
Starting point is 01:16:26 Netanyahu's done at this point I think worse it's going to go the government will probably go over to Ben Gavir who's maybe worse I don't know or at least he doesn't have
Starting point is 01:16:41 so much corruption hanging over his head like Netanyahu does but yeah I'm sorry we got occupied a long time ago and if we have no honor, then what's the fucking point?
Starting point is 01:16:59 I for one am incredibly I don't want to say blackfield but I feel that the like the whole Israel stuff just I get the sense that the nothing ever happens for those are correct
Starting point is 01:17:14 like there's just no amount of blood that the desert sand cannot absorb and I just feel that this is never going to go anywhere until you know one side or the other, you know, completes the dirty business of booting the other out of its land. Now, that being said, I feel also that, like, for the reasons you said, Pete, the, like, this is almost like a trap for, for the Israelis.
Starting point is 01:17:42 Like, if you can't hold two agreements, why should any, but first, why should anyone trust you? But then second, it creates a dynamic where, if no one can ever trust. agreements that they make, how are you ever supposed to come to a peaceful resolution of conflict? How are you ever supposed to be able to maintain that peace? These are serious questions that I'm not sure that the Israelis can really answer. And, you know, there's a curse that people claims has been placed upon them. It's called the 80-year curse. I'm not too familiar with it, But if you behave in certain ways and you don't abide by agreements, then eventually people say, well, it's us or them.
Starting point is 01:18:32 And inevitably, fighting breaks out once again. So it just seems to me that there is an inability to overcome historical contingencies here. I've been a no secret before that I hate talking about this topic, pretty much more than anything else. because it just brings out the worst of people, particularly on our side, you know, like, everyone just like spurts out. It's like, oh, well, like, Trump is 100% backed like by the Zionist lobby, which, like, I mean, from my side of it, I just think that Trump is a New York business vocal who spent his whole life around Jews, and he probably likes them.
Starting point is 01:19:26 But does that make somebody like a Zionist? I mean, I don't know. It seems like a bit of a far-fetched, like. claim to make. But also, I mean, it's clear to me that Trump is not a fan of Netanyahu at all. I mean, we brought this up before, but Netanyahu was the first world leader to congratulate Joe Biden of his election win. It was like right away, too. I think it was like within like the first day or two of like of that election. So I mean, they clearly have no love for each other. It might be worth mentioning as well, but the only Zionists in the United States is like a,
Starting point is 01:19:58 as a population group outside of the people whom the Zionist probably. is meant to benefit. Are Christian conservatives? And Trump is most certainly not a Christian conservative, so it can't be that kind of Zionism. Right. And to the point about Israel, and how this relates to them, is what happens for Israel when they can't play the use Big Daddy America to get you out of trouble card, which is pretty much, as far as I can tell, exactly what happened post the events of October 7th. so how is the Arab world going to react when you know America can't get itself involved in you know put aircraft carriers in the eastern Mediterranean so but how is that going to work out for you? Hmm.
Starting point is 01:20:50 Hmm. I don't know. I mean, I know there's like some reports coming in that Israel hasn't signed off on the agreement yet. I mean, whatever that means. Again, like give it a couple days here and we'll see what actually occurs. but, I mean, if they can end this conflict and then all eyes go to the Russia-Ukraine situation, and, you know, I know we've, Charlemagne and others have said that they're kind of skeptical of the current makeup of the Trump administration, at least what they've said publicly,
Starting point is 01:21:19 about, you know, bringing a swift end to this war. I mean, we'll see. At the very least, like we said at the very beginning, the policy proposals that the OGC wants more than anything. Number one is, you know, huge restrictions on immigration and mass deportations. Number two is the ending of foreign conflicts and foreign wars. And number three is energy, independence and environmental protections for, you know, our great lands here at home. And to bring up the second proposal
Starting point is 01:21:51 right there, I mean, if the U.S. isn't sending billions of dollars to Israel to continue to ethically cleanse Palestinians, I mean, that's a step in the right direction. I guess at this point you're just looking for little wins when it comes to that because it's been so so many decades
Starting point is 01:22:14 and it always seems like Israel gets to do whatever they want and it may have just been one snub by Netanyahu against Trump that you know turns it around and puts it in a different direction
Starting point is 01:22:31 hopefully you know we hope for that you know but nothing nothing's guaranteed this is politics. Yeah, I mean, I think you're 100% right, Pee. I mean, it is absolutely clear that Nanyahu is fucked. If this deal
Starting point is 01:22:44 goes through, he is done. Does that mean, like, the Israeli state isn't going to have outsized influence in American politics? That remains to be seen. But, I mean, like, Natanyahu, he was already, like, put in charge. Wasn't it, like, getting charged, like, on corruption and shit like this,
Starting point is 01:23:00 like just before this popped off and they were looking to get rid of him. Oh, bribery corruption? That's why he's, he has a done anything to get as soon as those hostages are released. I mean, he's been, I think they've deposed him within the last week. So, I mean, he's, he really is
Starting point is 01:23:18 done. And that's why Ben Gavir, if you've been paying attention, he's been, he's like, well, if a stees fire is done, we're breaking, you know, we're breaking with the Netanyahu government. I mean, this is, this could fracture lacude. I mean, I wouldn't count on that at all, but
Starting point is 01:23:34 there's a very good possibility this could fracture of lacude. The only question is, is what comes after it worse? Yeah, I guess it's a very good point. So, uh, I mean, and I will say one more thing here just on, um, uh, Trump's, uh, character as a whole. Um, you know, I, I see this get thrown on around a bunch, like people talking about, oh, well, Trump chooses people very, very poorly. Uh, and that might be the case, uh, in many examples, uh, many people we could name. But I've never seen the case where, somebody has gone out of their way to betray Trump, and Trump has, like, brought them back into the fold. I mean, like, people criticize Trump for recycling people too quickly, actually,
Starting point is 01:24:18 like, for, like, a hundred firings, like, in his previous administration. So it seems like Trump very much has a one-strike-in-your-out policy with working with them. I mean, it's not like anybody else who's been fired previously is getting a call to come back. So, I mean, maybe you just, like, run out of so many people, like, Zap-Branagan-style tactics of a government that eventually you're going to get to just honorable people who actually are on your side, so to speak. Who knows?
Starting point is 01:24:48 Alrighty. Well, that's it for the major stories, but now we've got a couple fun and interesting clips going around today. This just happened a couple hours before we went live. Good, it's about to fall.
Starting point is 01:25:08 Yeah, here we go. Here's some more videos. I'm Starlink. The bottom of that rock and almost hit the tower. Wow. Almost a challenge her moment. Yeah, yeah. I mean, that is kind of cool the image on the right there
Starting point is 01:25:24 of one of these starship tests. Just breaking up into like a meteor shower, like something you see out of Star Wars or something. Yeah, the right most video is that that's depicting debris falling from orbit, right? Like what is the debris from? Did one of these rockets explode? Yeah, yeah, one of these tests that they launched
Starting point is 01:25:46 today, one of these starships, um, uh, exploded. I don't know if it was on reentry or if it was on, um, uh, uh, I don't know what it was, but, I mean, certainly paints a pretty interesting image. Uh, I mean, hmm,
Starting point is 01:25:58 there's always bound to be mistakes, uh, when you're doing stuff like this, right? I mean, it kind of just puts into context of how difficult it actually is to get something into space. Uh, how people are saying in the chat, the second stage broke apart. Uh, interesting.
Starting point is 01:26:15 pretty cool yeah I mean at the very least it's a very very cool image but yeah I mean gotta break some eggs to make an outlet right CSS Virginia with the great comment
Starting point is 01:26:31 jeet's paying off already well if it was one of the stages then there were no people in this craft so at least there's that not like a full challenger moment But in the new citizenship chests, whenever we take over and have complete control, we have to ask people, why do you support space technology and stuff like that? And the only proper answer has to be something about like space colonization. Yeah, I mean, this was something that was brought up a bunch during the whole H-1B debate going around, and Elon Musk's goal to get to Mars, right?
Starting point is 01:27:13 it's like, why do you have to out-compete these other countries in this regard when none of them would be looking into this technology in the first place if we did do it first? It's like, the United States is the one that has the lasting effect on space exploration. It's Faustian man that looks to the stars to expand. I mean, without us, like, the Chinaman would never think to go into space or like the machine. It's like nobody else would think to do this. I don't think this is the important argument here. I think the important argument is how many JITs are you competing for so that you can get the manager job at Panda Express.
Starting point is 01:27:50 Oh, yeah, well, there's certainly that too. Well, that's another fun argument that was going around on Twitter today, which again, Dave did an excellent job of breaking down on his stream. People can go and listen in on that. So, all right, let me check back on the super chats right here. here really quick and you can also put up any additional funny clips at the end if we
Starting point is 01:28:18 have any more but back to the top with Chief Sling and Beef for two bucks mark your calendars Uncle H's birthday falls on Easter well as much as that is a meme and as much as that is hilarious let us also remember that Easter
Starting point is 01:28:33 is about the celebration of the Lord memes aside my friends so Dune for five bucks thoughts on the late 30s professional tired of the white collar world and joining the Navy interested in cybersecurity, no children
Starting point is 01:28:49 or wife. Well, Mandraud, this seems like a top question that is right up your alley, sir. What do you think? Are you going commission route or are you joining for enlisted reasons? If you're going commission, it could be worth it possibly, depending what
Starting point is 01:29:05 profession you have. He did say cybersecurity. Maybe. I wouldn't. Not at your age. All right. Well, you heard it from Madrel. Hashtag, not financial advice. But that's his opinion on the matter.
Starting point is 01:29:27 Let's see. Willie McDuff for 50 bucks. That is the super chat of the night, and he deserves some gold. This is gold, Mr. Bond. All my life I've been in love with its color. I welcome. prize that will increase my stock.
Starting point is 01:29:44 Thank you very much, Mr. William McDuff for your generous donation tonight. I am too lazy to hit the Entropy Link salute. We've got to fix that laziness, sir. We're going to charge you for the amount that YouTube is taking in a cut for this, sir. But thank you very much. We always appreciate all of you guys
Starting point is 01:30:02 donate to us. Joshua B.B.E. for five bucks. Military bills, leaders, pays for college, and leads to Fed jobs. This is how you get into leadership beyond elected politics. I mean, hey, that very well might be the case.
Starting point is 01:30:19 Again, I'm never served, so I'm the wrong person to ask. But it's true, it's true. But like I said before, you go in, you do your time, you get, you know, enough eligibility for your benefits, and then you get out. That should be your game plan
Starting point is 01:30:34 if you're not planning on making a 20-year career out of it. All right. and we got Bolero 3993 once again for five bucks. America owns space and everything in it, but Vernar von Braun is a hidden figure. We need more Operation Paperclip H-1B, Vsas. I will never get tired of that sound of that. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:31:03 What I was going to say was that was always the thing that was so nuts about the comparisons during the cheat gate about how, well, America accepted a bunch of, the German scientists in World War II and that's how we got rocketry to go to the moon. This is just like today with the G's. It's like, no, this is fucking ridiculous.
Starting point is 01:31:21 Those guys had a 20-year track record of research, actually producing products, building things like V2s that were literally like being shot around all of like North Africa and Europe. Like this is fucking ridiculous. They actually had tangible results for what they create and what they researched. Like what is it that any of these H-1B people have shown us? Like, like really, what is there to show to,
Starting point is 01:31:42 for us in India that we don't have here in the United States that we need to have these people come over here for. Like there are mountains of trash their rivers that are polluting to the death and destroying all the wildlife in them. Like the mountains of shit on every single street. There's nothing India has that I want, period.
Starting point is 01:32:00 Well, I have an incredible rape culture too that people don't talk about. You know what? I recant my original statement. There's one thing that India has that I want. I want to go shoot a tiger. I want to go and much in the way of the British aristocrats of the 18th century.
Starting point is 01:32:18 I want to go to India, be carried around by four Jets, and then go out into the bush to hunt some of their game. So that's all I want. All righty, that is us all caught up on the super chats for tonight. Oh, you know what? This is one final clip that we just had to show. I'm not even going to have any commentary on this one, but I'm just going to play it and then you guys can guess where this took place.
Starting point is 01:32:45 So let's see. Well, there you go. Very, very funny. I also like how that wild animal caused less damage and destruction than what blacks typically do. The North American issue. Yeah, coyotes are better than the North American Street. Yeah. By the way, this took place in downtown Chicago.
Starting point is 01:33:45 basically. So I know this is a very like a rogan-brained take, but if anyone actually has read this book, Coyote America, it's nuts how these animals have established themselves in every major city in America just by sifting through trash and like dumpsters outside of restaurants to sustain themselves because they're not quite as big as wolves they can get by on less calories and they're small enough that they're not attacking people. So it's interesting. Coyotes are one of the few game animals that have actually increased in numbers
Starting point is 01:34:20 since some Europeans arrived in the 1650s. The other one being the wild turkey. Those two populations have exploded since Europeans arrived. Yeah, it's interesting because they operate in the same or similar ecological niche as foxes
Starting point is 01:34:35 to go after the same prey animals. And like I know in the UK, they have a like foxes and urban areas and that sort of thing. So yeah, I saw it everywhere. Yeah, I was, I was blown away. They have, like, foxes over there, like, we have raccoons. Yeah, it's real interesting to see, like,
Starting point is 01:34:53 similar animals in ecological niches doing basically the exact same thing under similar conditions. So that's very fascinating to watch. Yeah, I know that there's an established pack of coyotes in Central Park in New York, of all places. So. they can really just adapt anywhere. But yeah, we thought that was interesting to show for people tonight.
Starting point is 01:35:21 Just a little things that different than what we normally cover. So, well, that's us all caught up on the super chats. When we go around and get our shillings out of the way really quick, Mr. Not Me, Not You. Do you have anything to promote, sir? I am shilless. I am unshilled. I didn't want to bring up one thing. For those of you going to the ball,
Starting point is 01:35:43 or any event at the inauguration, and you are buying your first suit, please make sure to cut the vents and the pockets. They come sewed shut. You don't want to be the guy who has someone say, you didn't cut your vents. So just keep that in mind. We want you guys looking good all the time.
Starting point is 01:36:06 Yeah, right on. And as echoed earlier, everyone just be a little safe at inauguration day. Nobody quite knows what's going to happen, but be glad that you're participating in history, but just don't do anything stupid. Look presentable. Be awesome. All right. Pete, you've always got stuff going on.
Starting point is 01:36:27 What do you have to promote? I just dropped an episode with Thomas on part two of the history and issues of policing, which is funny when we're looking at this, watching police deal. with a coyote. Yeah, check that out. That's, I think we're having a really good conversation about just basically how the way policing was done in the 19th century coming forward and into the 20th century is an anachronism now. And it will be going away and what will come next.
Starting point is 01:37:08 All righty. So definitely be on the lookout for that. Mr. Raging Mandrill, what do you have to promote, sir? Ah, many things. So the first thing is I have a episode, a podcast episode, on my personal substack covering the dark crystal. I performed that podcast with Hitman, the illustrious YouTuber, yeah, British YouTuber. And it is now coming out from behind the paywall. That'll be out tomorrow.
Starting point is 01:37:39 So take a look out for that on Substack. It'll also be up on my YouTube channel as well if you want to check that out. on the same time. And then tomorrow afternoon, I will be going live with the Prudentialist in the afternoon as well. And we'll be covering another chapter of Days of Rage. And that is the chapter where we begin the story arc on the Simbienese Liberation Army, also known as the SLA. All righty.
Starting point is 01:38:09 So be on the lookout for that. I myself always thought the dark crystal referred to what we're going to lock Barack Obama up in. but yeah definitely take a look at that and Ryan what do you have to promote sir all that I have to promote is my YouTube channel Ryan Turnipseed here on YouTube I haven't released anything in quite a while but there's still plenty of content to go back and watch history content current political thought yet Red Hawk you mentioned that one of your favorite streams on that channel was the one that you, I, and our good friends over at Knights of Descent did,
Starting point is 01:38:50 where we talked about Christian conservatism and feminism. And I'm not the only one that thinks that this stuff is worth watching. I get my YouTube results back every month, even though I haven't had any activity on the channel. I think it's still something insane, like a few thousand hours every month. people are watching this much in terms of it. So there has to be something good there. Go check that out.
Starting point is 01:39:16 I have at Turnip Merchant on Twitter. And of course, check out the OGC substack just because that's probably one of the better places that you can just get any sort of regular reading at this point in time. And it has a very wide swath of things to look at. So go check it out. You'll find something that you'll like there.
Starting point is 01:39:38 And it's only going to grow better, time goes on and we get more people with more talents. Yeah, absolutely. We do have quite a different swath of topics that we cover on the substack. For myself, one thing to promote actually is something going out on the substack. So people will remember last year when Charlemagne, Mr. D.,
Starting point is 01:39:59 and Semigog and myself did a stream reviewing the 50 flags of the states of the U.S. And we graded a bunch of them, talked about the ones we liked. Most of them we didn't like. But in much the same way, we did that stream, we did one on the 50 state quarters, and that is coming out tomorrow on the substack behind the paywall. So if you guys want to hear myself, Mr. D. and Charlemagne go through all 50 state quarters, talk about which ones we like, which ones we don't like, which states got a double dosage
Starting point is 01:40:32 of a good coin and a good state flag. You'll have to tune in and listen to that one. We had a lot of fun with that. Also, check out my appearance with my good friend, Ryan Stone that was over the weekend on Saturday on his channel. I always have a fun conversation talking to Ryan. Very, very good dude. Has a lot of good things to say. And then on
Starting point is 01:40:51 Sunday, I will be appearing on post zero, as always. So, be on the lookout for that. I don't know who's going to host. It might be Kyle Motovic. Might be myself, who knows. But with that all the way, we'll be back here once again next week for another episode of Pony Express Radio. Happy
Starting point is 01:41:07 Day to everyone in the meantime. Go pay homage to your local McDonald's on Monday, and we will see you all next week.
