F. No sound. Hey, we're back. Are we back? We're back. The computer broke. So back. Look at that. We got. And I did that amazing introduction. It was great. I know it was probably the most profound thing I've ever said in my life. OK, just start over. No, I lost it. Something happened the other day. Trump was he was doing something. You're so full of it. All right, everybody, we got the audio back. What's up? So here's the news. Last night, we watched Donald Trump give an address to a joint session of Congress. It was incredible.

Probably the best speech I've ever seen in my life. Everyone agrees. And Democrats were apoplectic. In fact, the reaction has been brutal. Sound is working. Perfect. So we got this poll from CBS, YouGov, and they're saying most people who watched it loved it.

However, the backlash is huge. Frank Luntz, famous pollster, says it was miserable for Democrats. He's pissed. He described the reaction they gave to Trump as manna from heaven for Republicans. And I'm here for it because I would like to see Republicans win the midterms and for Trump to be able to complete his second term agenda. So no obstruction. So long as Democrats keep losing their minds, refusing to clap for children who survived brain cancer, then I think we're going to win this one. Now we're seeing Nicole Wallace from MSNBC. She said something so vile and disgusting.

It needs proper context. So I'm not going to say. But she basically said she hopes this child doesn't commit suicide. And it's disgusting. And Rachel Maddow called it disgusting that Trump would actually celebrate this child and prop him up because he had nothing to do with the kid surviving brain cancer, which is nuts. Democrats couldn't even clap for this kid. The only time they clapped together was when Trump said we had been spending hundreds of billions of dollars on Ukraine. The polling shows people are not happy with Democrats. So we're going to break down the reaction, which is miserable. And then a couple of dollars on Ukraine. The polling shows people are not happy

with Democrats. So we're going to break down the reaction, which is miserable. And then a couple of really big stories. We got the Supreme Court. This one's weird. Basically, the story is complicated, but they're saying Trump's got to give two billion dollars away that we can never get back. And it's taxpayer money effectively being stolen from you. Donald Trump says we're going to freeze these payments from USAID. A lower court said, no, we're putting a temporary restraining order right now, which means make those payments. Trump's response was, how is it temporary? If we make the payments, the money's gone forever. So he appeals, gets rejected. It appeals to the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court five to four says, no, no, no, no, Trump, you got to pay. So Alito is stunned at the Supreme Court is basically saying the executive branch has to pay out money. They will never get back. That comes from the taxpayer.

Now, we got a bunch of other stories, too, but I think one of the biggest stories, which is wild West Virginia. Hey, shout out. I've been complaining about West Virginia just today, passed a bill in the Senate that will ban artificial food dyes in foods. This is a bombshell. West Virginia making this move is going to have repercussions on all food manufacturers in the country. Let's say there's a company that makes a toaster pastry like dessert that uses red dye in their filling. They're now going to have to consider, if we want to be able to sell this product in West Virginia, we can't have that dye in it. So it's a cost-benefit analysis now. Nationwide, we make, you know, $10 million per year, but we're going to lose $3 million from West Virginia. Or let's say they do X amount of dollars, they're going to lose a certain percentage of their revenue if they lose West Virginia, not the biggest market.

But what may happen is these companies might say, if we're going to lose $10 million, we might as well spend five changing out the artificial dyes for natural dyes and then sell those nationwide. This could have a massive ripple effect. So this is really incredible stuff. And then Donald Trump issued a death threat to Hamas. And people are really worried that he's banging the war drums. But he's saying release the hostages or else. And I think he said Shalom Hamas. And people are saying like, this is serious stuff. A lot of people angry. So also, don't forget to go to cast brew.com and pick up some coffee. Coffee is delicious. You like coffee. I got coffee. You can buy coffee. Guess what? Ian's graphene Dream is back in stock.

Hi, everybody. I'm 6'7 Kevin. I make documentaries on YouTube. You can find me

And you will usually find me on Pop Culture Crisis here at TimCast. Glad to be here. We should get a picture of you guys together after this. Yeah, that would be crazy. I had no idea you were that short. Yeah, I had no idea you were that tall. That's crazy. I am Phil Labonte. I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains. I'm an anti-communist and counter-rev of revolutionary. Let's go. Here's the story from CBS News that has everybody all riled up.

Poll on Trump's 2025 joint address to Congress finds large majority of viewers approve. You know, they're playing dirty games. I'm going to say. So when I saw this poll, everybody's sharing this metric where it's like 76 percent approve. When I first pulled this up this morning, they actually showed a different metric as their first. And it's this one party identification of speech watchers, 51 percent Republicans, 27 percent independents, 20 percent Democrats. And I'm getting to thinking, why would why would you pull it this way? You're basically saying your poll is worthless.

If 51 percent of the people who watched it are Republicans, of course, people who watch they're going to like it. They voted for the man and they're Republicans. Now, as a lot of people are sharing this around saying, aha, look, America wins. I think they threw this in here to basically create an out for Democrats to say, see, we didn't actually pull Democrats to see what they thought about the speech. And then pundits are going to be able to say, oh, you know, we tuned out because Trump's a liar. I'm going to say this. When you take a look at how CBS did a poll almost a year ago about the State of the Union and not the speech from Joe Biden, they actually, if you look at the crosstabs, you can see they chose to actually pull a nationally representative sample of the demographics, meaning they got

where's the party ID? 655 Dems, 721 independents and 603 Republicans. I argue if they really wanted to, they could have pulled a politically representative sample of speech watchers, not just we generally asked people and here's how it turned out. That metric is fine if they said we generally asked people and here's how it turned out. That metric is fine if they said we asked general people and got this. But if they want to do a poll on how people feel about this, wouldn't it make more sense to say we asked a politically representative sample of people what they thought of Trump's speech? And then you'd see it's probably

closer to 50 50 tracking more Trump's approval ratings, perhaps. I think the answer is likely this. Democrats are checked out. The Democrats had a miserable, miserable performance. The signs were annoying and they got made fun of. Colbert is making fun of them. He held up a sign saying, like, try doing something. That was funny. I think YouGov probably could not find Democrats to poll. And so they were forced to do the poll this way when they found out that Democrats are tuned out or have quit entirely. I mean, how many polls are on point in the first place? But looking at it, a lot of people that I knew that were Democrats just refused to watch Trump at all. So I don't even know if they tuned in. I don't know if that metric, you know, is added into it as well.

It's bizarre. If they think that this guy is the second coming of Hitler, would they not be paying attention to his rhetoric and his plans for the country? Like, I was just I came across these local protesters the other day and I decided to go up to them and, you know, start chatting. And I took pictures of all of their signs they i don't think these people who are protesting on the street are representative of where most democrats are at but they say stop project 2025 uh when has trusting the billionaires ever helped us

with fear for our democracy i dissent don't tread on me that's in rainbow i can literally answer like all those questions where law ends tyranny begins fight the fascists let's let's let's do that let's say what's the what was the first one again the first one was stop project 2025 of course no well hold on i mean there is no project 2025 our democracy is at stake blah blah blah so they all basically and i i spoke to them i was being very polite and i asked them how they feel about this administration and they were all saying like um yeah we have a fascist dictator in office and we're going to be protesting and i asked them like really day, like you're going to be out here in a pedestrian thoroughfare, like protesting the fascist dictator for how long? Like until he's like out of office.

And they're like, yeah, I mean, if he even leaves office, I mean, it might be until 2028 for all we know. And then they'll keep going every single week 2028 even after that and then once i guess the next republican president is in they'll just keep coming back every week i know everybody's really has you know has a very good feeling about the way that trump's speech went it was a good speech i'm not taking anything away from it but i want to draw attention to Elise Slotnick, her response. Not because it's not because the substance of it was something that I personally find compelling. But the substance of it was it was a demonstration of the civil war going on in the Democrat Party. It sounded like she was a late 80s, early 90s Republican.

She praised Ronald Reagan. She was talking about economic issues. She didn't touch any of the culture war issues at all. And the reason is because the Democrats that are the donors know that those are losers. Americans do not want men and women in the same bathrooms. For the most part, Americans still look at Hamas as a terrorist group and they look at Gaza and they see Hamas. Whether or not that's right or wrong, I don't I'm not trying to make that make an argument. I'm telling you the way that most Americans kind of perceive the situation.

And you can see that in polls. Most Americans want to still support Israel. The culture war issues that the Democrats have attached themselves to are terribly, terribly unpopular. The American people want the border closed. Trump has taken up all the 80-20 issues where 80% of Americans agree and 20% don't. And basically, you can find 20% of the people that will disagree with Republicans for literally anything. And I think that it's emblematic in the fact that they're talking about, they're in agreement that it's okay for children to cut off their genitals. Yeah, I think it's TDS, it is Trump derangement syndrome, you know. And to go back to the protests,

I've been covering protests ever since Trump got in. And I've been talking to these people, and it's fascinating what they're saying because I was just in San Diego. Somebody told me they think Elon Musk is actually the president. They were fully convinced that he was the president. Oh, a shadow president.

Yeah, exactly. Which is absurd. I mean, that's really detached from reality it's this he is just as much a shadow president as any other advisor to any other president he's doing all it's doge is actually entirely mundane it is an audit department that's it they give recommendations to the administration. If anyone's getting fired, any changes that are made, it is not because Elon Musk has the power to do it himself. He's making these recommendations to President Trump. President Trump is making those. But I don't even think it goes that I don't say I don't even I don't even think it goes that hard.

And I think it's probably way more mundane than even you're describing in that Elon. There's a there's a batch of government employees. They work for the United States Digital Service, which they jokingly renamed Doge Service. These young men are going in and doing audits as government employees. And then someone probably like Elon probably says, you know, let let Trump's assistant like let a staffer know what we're looking at. Trump probably passively looks at a piece of paper and goes, oh, look at that. Yeah, sure. We should end these programs. So my point is, I doubt Elon is meeting with the president every day and sitting there and then

going over big lists. Trump is way too busy for that. So the separation between Trump and Elon is probably substantial relative to what these people imagine. I mean, first of all, saying that Elon is the president is laughable. Elon's probably doing a lot less than people realize. And I don't mean to demeanor disparage the work that he's doing. I'm saying the Democrats think he's literally got Trump on puppet strings when he's probably he's running three, four or five. How many companies is the man running? I don't think he's he's in the White House 24 seven running the show. Yeah, well, and the reasoning that I heard from this protester was that he said that this conspiracy was that Elon Musk stole the election using satellites. And so Trump owes him everything for that. And that was fascinating.

He's more of a hype man with a cabinet job. And if anything, Trump's speech was overselling the impact of doge just to make it sound cool but right if that's what you're doing to get the deficit under control it's obviously not going to even make a dent he's cutting things by millions even if you're cutting things by billions you're not even making a dent yep that that is a big challenge i mean there the other problem too, is that the story from the Supreme court, which we'll get into in a second where I don't want to, I don't want to jump the gun on the rest of these stories, but the Supreme court forcing

Trump to pay $2 billion. And it's, and it's a weird story because they're not forcing him to do anything. Basically a lower court district court said, we are pausing Trump's order to halt payments temporarily, which means the final payments will be issued. So it's not a temporary halt. So Trump files an appeal. The appellate court says we have no jurisdiction over this because the executive branch of sovereign immunity and how they issue payments, the court, we can't be involved. The lower court. So the argument is they wrongly issued this order. So then it goes to the Supreme Court and they put a temporary stay on the lower court's order. And then today vacated their stay.

So they actually didn't rule anything. They just outright said we're not getting involved, which means Trump is bound by a lower court to give two billion dollars of your money away. This is absolutely insane. Now, again, I don't want to jump the gun on the story. I want to talk a bit about what Trump was pitching. But to go back to the State of the Union or whatever you want to call it, Democrats didn't crap crap. They didn't clap for anything. I thought they at least clapped for balancing the budget, right? Give some air of actually caring about the American people. Nope. And then when it came to this 13 year old boy who survived brain cancer, who was being made an honorary Secret Service agent, heartwarming moment. And, you know, the story of this kid. Let me do this. Let's jump. Let's jump to this next story. So we have this from The Independent. MAGA loses its mind over MSNBC host Nicole Wallace's sickening comments about Trump honoring young cancer survivor. Quote, MSNBC should fire Nicole Wallace, disgusting far-right pundit,

disgusting, comma, far-right pundit Charlie Kirk, raged following Nicole Wallace's remarks. I agree. I, like, you know, I don't get super angry all the time, but when I watched this clip of Nicole Wallace, do they not have the video? I legit got angry. I called her an effing witch.

Let me pull the clip up. I honestly. A wicked witch who belongs in hell. Okay, look. Let me tell you guys the story. Do you guys know the story of this 13-year-old kid, why he was there? Multiple surgeries for brain cancer, correct? How did Trump find out about him?

I don't know. He was being bullied. He was being made fun of and mocked in a viral video because he dressed in his little police officer uniform because he wanted to be a cop. He was made an honorary officer after surviving brain cancer. And a bunch of other young people started filming him and making fun of him. Like, what are you going to do? Arrest him. And they were like they were bullying him. It wasn't super brutal or anything, but they were bullying him. And so that's my understanding. I saw this viral video. Someone had said this kid was getting

bullied and trump decided to bring him here and honor him and say don't let them get you down we're going to make you a secret service agent rachel maddow called trump disgusting for it and nicole wallace i i i i this one really really got me got me pissed off and i called her an effing witch so let me where is that stupid where's that video at well it was artful to have trump he went straight from dj to rfk saying hey we want to reduce cancer rates it was a brilliant transition you think the democrats would be behind it and kennedy and everything listen listen listen to this from msnbc i think this was a lesson in finding one thing that you let yourself feel. And I let myself feel joy about DJ. And I hope he's alive for another, you know, 95 years. And I hope he lives

the life he wants to live. He wants to be a cop. He knows what he wants to do. And maybe when you have childhood cancer that crystallizes for you. And i hope he has a long life as a law enforcement officer but i hope he never has to defend the united states capital against donald trump supporters and if he does i hope he isn't one of the six who loses his life to suicide and i hope he isn't one who has to testify against the people who carried out acts of seditious conspiracy. What a vile, disgusting witch. Holy crap, man. That that was so, so past the line. And then and then Rachel Maddow chimed in.

New York Post reports Nicole Walls and Rachel Maddow blasted for politicizing Trump's honor of a 13 year old cancer survivor, DJ Daniel, sick and twisted. So let's pull the Rachel Maddow quote. Maddow bizarrely accused Trump of being disgusting for spotlighting D.J.'s heroic battle with the disease for which the youngster had initially been warned would kill him in months. Quote. For the record, and this is disgusting, the president made a spectacle out of praising a young man who has thus far survived pediatric cancer as if the president had something to do with that. Yo, kid was getting bullied because he wanted to be a cop.

He had survived cancer. He wanted to be a cop. He still suffers issues from the numerous surgeries. He's given he was giving interviews about this. And Rachel Maddow called Trump disgusting for honoring a child who survived brain cancer because he was getting bullied. These people are evil, man. They are zealous, cultist evil. This is insane. Have they no remorse? They only care about saying things that pander to their hive of scum and villainy. I remember I saw that live too because I wanted to see the liberal

side of that. And when I watched it live I couldn't believe it. I was like, how can you not be behind this? And what did you call it for the Republicans? It was bread from heaven. Frank Luntz called it manna from heaven for Republicans. It was such a bad look. But it's funny

because that's like why moments like that are curated parts of a speech yeah so that you can anticipate their reaction and they gave trump exactly what he wanted but so i'm playing into his hand i i i i somewhat agree because trump knows the democrats well that's true he said even if i came up with the cure for cancer, you wouldn't cheer and clap for me. Yep. And Trump knows and we all know them, but he didn't force him to do it. This could have been a layup for Democrats. Yeah. Democrats could have been magnanimous. They could have stood up and cheered for the child and then afterwards said that they could have played. They could have been reasonable, moderate on any of these issues. They could

have said balancing the budget, of course, is a good thing. The insane thing is that when Donald Trump says this young child survived brain cancer, what a strong little man. And the Democrats just said they're stone faced. It's like, dude, you are robots. I think the one point at which they actually clapped was in order to cut Trump off mid-sentence when he said something about funding Ukraine they were like yes that was yes we did yes we did send them billions of dollars so that he wouldn't have a chance to finish the sentence that probably but I do smarmy and then the rest of the time they're staring at their phones pretending to fall asleep and holding up stupid signs like they never grew past like student council.

That's like it's student council teachers pet energy. To be fair, some of them also stormed out in protest and we only found out because they told us. Yeah, I mean, this kind of falls in line with the thing that we that we've talked about before, which is if the Democrats would have been complimentary to Donald Trump in 2016 when he first got in, they could have had anything they wanted. He is a dealmaker. He would have done all kinds of things. I personally think that Donald Trump is more concerned with the way people treat him and with people liking him. So I think that he would have been significantly more inclined to do whatever they wanted if they'd have treated him nice, if they'd have kissed his butt a little bit, treated him like the president. They'd have got whatever they want.

But the thing is, they can't do that because they have they have it in their imagination. And I think this is because once Barack Obama was elected, the Democrats kind of felt like they reached an end of history point. Well, now, from here on out, it's going to be Democrats forever. The Republicans are going to be a marginalized party. That'll be, you know, a small opposition. There'll be a regional party. They're not going to actually ever get into positions of authority again. That obviously proved to be not true. And so they freaked out because the left freaks out whenever they lose any any institution, any any amount of political power. They drop the ball and they can't do anything other than just be whatever Donald be against whatever Donald Trump

says. Yeah. And well, Donald Trump has said he wants to reach out his hand and bring the other aisle in and they keep slapping his hand down and saying no. And it's unbelievable. But watching Rachel Maddow in this situation, too, when this was live, Rachel Maddow was fuming with anger about the speech, saying there were so many fact check mistakes that she could not list them all in one show. Oh, isn't that convenient? There are so many fact check mistakes. I just can't even address any of them. That's real convenient. I mean, whatever they have, whatever these people have is incurable. And they truly are of a reprobate mind because I think they have a spiritual problem.

They have a spiritual bankruptcy among them. It's not something to do with their party affiliation. There are plenty of Democrats who would never act that way. I completely agree. I was having a conversation about this earlier, and we talked a little bit about it before the show. But I think that this is not of all atheists or agnostics or whatever. But I think when there is a when an individual lives only in their own existence, when they don't care about others around them and how others feel, and when they don't care about, there's a couple ways you can phrase this, either God's will or the structure of the universe and our place in it is one way

to phrase it for those that are secular. These people live entirely in the self-gratification universe. The only thing that matters is they get what they want. They get self-gratification. They get to party, wake up at six in the morning. I'll keep it family friendly, but everyone knows what Chelsea Handler said. And I think the reason why you see right now in the culture war, largely Christians, you know, are on the right advocating for things that I would describe it as this. Liberals advocate for a lifestyle that is destructive to the ends of civilization. And currently the right as a whole, largely Christian is advocating for things that are protective and expansive to creation. And I think, I think the component is the question you

ask yourself is, do you consider when you take actions, your place in the world and what the world is and does for Christians? The question is actually much more simple. You know, are you adhering to God's will? I think liberals are absent of that largely. Yeah, well, because the core idea of Christianity and Catholicism is taking yourself off the throne of life and putting God there. And that changes how you organize your entire life. Self is not the top priority, whereas when you see the liberals, that is their top priority for the most part. I think that's better said, much simpler than I put it. Do you consider yourself or do you consider everything else? It's weird because everyone circulates that heat map meme where you see liberals have an outgroup bias and their last priority is people who are related to them or people who are in their community.

Their first priority in terms of care and concern is people on the other side of the planet, basically any marginalized group. And that heat map goes around. And then J.D. Vance was also referring to it in terms of Ordo Amoris, the order of loves. And what is properly ordered is that you first prioritize your family and then you go to friends, larger community, society as a whole, your nation. And then the rest of the world, the rest of the world can wait. I have a correction for you, and it only makes your point better. There's the graph which shows liberals have an outgroup preference. But the heat map you're referring to shows that Democrats first order of their first priority is inert objects, not even other people. And those objects being rocks trees and dirt yeah i i probably but uh no in all seriousness

the issue of what do you care about and i mean care in the literal sense of what do you want to protect what do you want to have flourish among conservatives it is myself my friends my family and the order of things as you described it among liberals it's the national park it's the trees it's the rivers they choose inert inert objects like rocks and monuments. Not monuments, the opposite. But like rocks at a national park. Now, I got to be honest. I also deeply care about rocks and trees and all that stuff.

But Jeremy Boring made a really great point on this show a couple years ago. He was saying that obviously we want to be good stewards of the earth, but everything is within the human perspective. If there are no humans, what are we protecting anything for? I mean, it is for the sake of humanity. That is the order of what we care about. And it's a great point. I think liberals do not exist largely within a how do my actions play into the bigger, scale of things they're basically just wake up and i want to feel good i would wonder do you think that liberals actually feel like what they do matters and the reason i say this is because you know if you're a secular person if

you're if you don't have any foundation in religion or anything at all any kind of spirituality and you think well you know everything eventually the sun's just going to burn out and all the stars are going to burn out so nothing i do actually matters what what's it yes exactly they're nihilists yeah uh we've had we've had a couple people on the show because obviously not everybody the show is religious we have actually quite a bit who are not and uh one of our guests said he was completely atheist and uh i think i I think anybody who is completely atheist and unwilling to even have the philosophical conversation is misunderstanding what atheism means or the bigger picture. But he just said, nope, wet robots. And I'm like, that's it. We recently talked about this on Pop Culture

Crisis. There was this clip going around of Grimes talking about the decline of religion and how she thinks that's a bad thing, that killing God was a mistake. And someone replied to that and said, this is such a sociopathic self-report, basically meaning if you think that anyone's moral framework should derive from religion, you're admitting to the world that you're a sociopath because you should just be born knowing how to live and what's right and wrong. And this person is basically saying, I'm high born and I was just innately created better than you religious people. I just know right from wrong inherently. And you're low born. That's an incredibly common perspective when it comes to atheists.

Spending a lot of time in the music industry, a lot of people have that kind of opinion. They're like, they look down on people that have any kind of religion. They make the whole, oh, the spaghetti monster in the sky comment and stuff. And it's like, religion has been with human beings forever there has always been some kind of religion in every society ever studied no matter how distant they are in time or space there was religion and it's likely that there was religion in in other types of of homo sapien or not not homo sapiens other types of uh like neanderthal and and and other if you believe in evolution, other types of hominids, right? So to think that it's useless or you can just decide you don't need that anymore

in a generation or two, that's the stupid take. It's something that's so deeply ingrained in human beings that you think you can just walk away from it because, look, I watch the Nature Channel, man. I got it all figured out. You're a moron. Religion is the principle. How do I describe this? It is the indicator of and the proof of humans higher thinking in that. The basis of religion of the thought is what exists beyond known reality. When you're asking questions about what exists and what is that we could not touch, smell, see, or hear is what sets us apart from literally every other animal on the planet. That's where humans are just discernibly

above. Well said. I mean, Carl Jung said with the death of god there needs to be something else to replace that hole in the heart of a man because there's just something in us that draws us towards god and if we don't have that there's this chasm and that's why i think so many of the liberals treat what they believe is almost a religion you know yeah absolutely let's uh let's jump we'll jump back to the trump speech reaction we've got this video of frank luntz now frank luntz is well what do they say he's a conservative pollster i don't know if he actually is he doesn't like me i'll tell you that and uh frank luntz explains why he's angry with democrats after trump address this is uh good news for everybody who is concerned the democratic party has lost their minds because this is is a guy who does he does panels where he convenes a bunch of people, ask them what they think.

And here he is basically saying the Democrats tantrum and reaction to Trump is manna from heaven for Donald Trump. Take a take a listen. Each because there's a what I call a killer line. It's something that different differentiates Trump from other presidential speeches, from other key moments in politics and in governing. I just want to emphasize that was the longest speech ever. It's not quite a State of the Union, but it's similar to it. And no one's ever gone longer than him. That was the most political speech ever. He referred to his predecessor by name more than any other individual who's held one of these speeches. Third, it was the most partisan ever. Whether you had Democrats sitting on their hands or Republicans jumping up,

you saw, you knew exactly who was who based on the view on television and based on being in the chamber. And fourth, it was the most disruptions by the minority party ever. Whether you're holding up those placards, whether you're yelling at him as the congressman did and being unwilling to keep quiet when he was called on it. If you're a Republican, that was arguably and I've been doing this now for decades. If you're a Republican, that was manna from heaven. That was exactly what you wanted to hear. And you're shocked that he was saying it so bluntly. If you're a Democrat, it was sheer hell because it tells you that this is going to continue. And if you're an independent,

you agree with the policies, but you don't agree with the tone. This was the best thing that could have happened to the Republican Party and Trump's coalition. The big concern most of us have is how much can Trump get done before the midterms? Because that's when squishy Republicans will bow out and stop supporting his agenda. And that's when if Trump loses the midterms, he either gets impeached or gets obstructed. And then nothing else can happen for the remainder of his four years. But with actions like this from the Democrats, booing, jeering or whatever, screaming and constantly just just jeering Al Green getting thrown out there. Did you guys hear that they're they're they're drafting a censure of Al Green over this?

Good. Yep. Good. I I have to imagine republicans planned this like they crafted this specifically to be like how can we make democrats make a fool of themselves they're so predictable i mean look i i personally have said multiple times we need to see more things like censure because a lot of times there's really egregious behavior by people in congress and i honestly this is one time where i'll say both sides there's egregious behavior by people in Congress. And I honestly, this is one time where I'll say both sides, there's egregious behavior by people in Congress. And because of the way that our political system works, there's not often repercussions. They don't get voted out of office, et cetera, et cetera. So there's got to be something to say, look, this guy's kind of a scumbag.

And I think that censure, you know, because removal from office is so difficult, censure, you know, give it to him. Let him at least let the let the record show that this person's trash. Yeah, well, and Al Green's been in public office since like the 70s. So he's one of those swamp creatures, if you will. And the liberals, they should they should lead by example. You know, they always say Trump needs to be better at reaching the hand over the aisle. They should lead by example and actually clap when we want to reduce cancer rates in children.

I mean, you could argue that if Democrats deviated from their standard play, which they can't, but if they did for some reason, they'd have cheered for Trump when Trump did good things, and it would have given more arguments to their positions in other areas. I was talking about this this morning because they were holding up the sign saying save, save Medicaid. And they've not made a single argument other than don't trust Trump. That's it. It's like Trump is not going to touch it. Trump says he's not going to touch the security or Medicaid. So you just waving that sign doesn't mean anything to anybody. Imagine if a single Democrat had two brain cells to rub together and said, you know, to be to be to be honest, I actually think it's good that Doge is going in and trying

to find waste, fraud and abuse. I wish them the best. However, the concern here is they have already in their mass firings laid off critical employees and had to rehire them. And so I get it. You're doing a broad brushstroke. We want the waste, fraud and abuse gone. That was overreach. My concern is they might accidentally step on Medicaid or Social Security. Regular people would say that's reasonable. In fact, I could literally say that right now and people that has a reasonable position to take. But Democrats can't do it. If you actually wanted to win an election, that's what your argument would be. It'd be like, vote for me because we'll be more cautious when it comes to the things you need. I like Trump. He does some good stuff. We'll do it a little

bit better. Use a scalpel instead of a hatchet for cutting these jobs. They're not using a hatchet. They have like a they have like the back of a wooden chair. They're beating against a tree, hoping the tree falls down. It's not gonna. You're like, dude, that's not an object that can cut through a tree. And they just they're not smart enough to understand this. There's a peer pressure, too. I'm sure that anyone on the Democrat side in there who wanted to applaud anything knew they would face social repercussions for doing so. And I'm sure that's the same on the Republican side. If you didn't stand up and clap for what you were supposed to stand up and clap for, you would face consequences.

So there's that. And there's this mean girl behavior. I mean, they're literally dressing up in pink costumes and doing their theatrics together. Like on Tuesdays, we wear pink. That was the last straw for me. Like them coordinating their outfits like 12 year old girls protesting the mean jerk who's who's running for student president. It was embarrassing for all of female kind. You know, that is a good point about the social thing, because that's kind of how I feel about it. Like and then I'm imagining the joke I made about beating a tree with the back of a wooden chair. It's like you've got a group of Democrats. They're all standing around and there's literally a

hatchet on the ground. But then Donald Trump is seen using it. So Democrats like now we don't do that. That's wrong. It's racist. And then the moderates, you know, five, 10 years ago were like, guys, what are you proposing? And then they start trying to use a blunt stick hitting the tree. And if you dare speak up, they hit you with the stick. So then the moderates end up leaving going joining trump who's reasonable makes

sense i gotta be honest he's talking big game and he's kind of a jerk when he does it but at least he's actually getting the job done yeah he referred to these independents who are saying like i agree with the policies but his tone though like are you living in a decade prior i just am shocked that people are still tone policing Trump. He's cooled down so much. If you remember the way that he sounded 10 years ago or even five years ago, his tone is unrecognizable. He tries so hard to be polite and magnanimous. Are you saying that he's less hilarious? Kind of, yeah.

Yeah, I am. And that was plenty funny for the first five minutes but the rest of it was down to business yeah and i do love the little quips that he throws out there yeah and and it was funny because uh i had a tweet get picked up someone said the first racial slur of the night and i said well elizabeth warren's not an american so it's not a racial slur it's a regular slur yeah that's you know the the the fact that that she brought up a racial slur which it's not a racial slur right it's not first of all and second of all the fact that she tried to imply that it is a racial slur it shows that they're still five to ten years behind and again

never they're never getting catch it it's five they're five or ten years behind and they're going slower than the rest of the class. I agree. I agree. But this, I think this points to the fact that there is a civil war and still this points to the fact that there's a civil war

in the Democrat Party. They don't know who they are. You listen to people that are, you know, the online pundits, people like Kyle Kulinski and people like Hassan and people like,

that do have the ear of young people, right? They get a lot of views. Those people are saying we need to be more progressive we need to be more progressive which translates to we gotta be commies like straight up but at the same time again at least the the the reply from the actual dnc was very moderate very middle of the road because they're losing the donors whether we like whether people like it or not donors matter and the communists are not going to get donors they might get a lot of people on the on the ground but it's it's not about the donors anymore they're they're losing their fictitious ngo circuitous methods of funding

fair enough but you're not going to win they're not going to win. They're not going to win. If they're losing that, they're not going to win elections without donations. That's what I'm saying. The sentiment is it's over. Right. This was a couple of years ago or in the past year. We saw that the donors were fleeing the Democratic Party. The big billionaires that started coming out and also being like, I've seen the light.

I've changed. Democrats were still like, well, at least we have like USAID funds funneling through various NGOs that make their way back to us. And then Trump was like, nope, gone. Although they're still going to get their last two billion, I guess. Yeah, apparently. I think that's kind of ridiculous. But I mean, I don't know if we're going to actually dive into that or not. But in a second, I mean, for now, we just wrap up by saying thank you, Democrats, because, you know, if you weren't insane, it would be very hard to make an argument against you. And your policies are bad, but you're not smart enough to make good arguments. So I don't need to steal, man, the Democrat position. I can literally just play the video of them screaming like banshees and be like, that's the argument.

And it's like, well, OK, I guess we just vote for Trump of them screaming like banshees and be like, that's the argument. And it's like, well, OK, I guess we just vote for Trump and the Republicans, I guess. And, you know, it's because of the Democrats insanity. We got this coalition with RFK Jr., with Tulsi Gabbard, with with Elon. And it's been it's been a swimmingly. It's it's swingly. It's really actually kind of remarkable that the left doesn't see that. The Democrat Party doesn't seem to grasp that they've lost the moderates in their party are mainstream Democrats, whether or not those are the policies that the Democrats actually want to institute, that's what people hear. The Republicans have capitalized on it, and the people that are activists continue to say we need to center the marginalized. We need to center the marginalized.

And all that does is make the most extreme people get all the attention. And that turns off all the moderates. The tactic of centering the margins doesn't work. We're going to jump to this next story, my friends, but don't forget to smash that like button. And if you're watching, share the show. Click the share button, copy that URL, paste it wherever you can share with all your friends. Really does help. Here's the story from Fox News. SCOTUS rules on nearly two billion dollars in frozen USAID payments. The case came after Trump froze nearly one point nine billion in aid. The Supreme Court Wednesday denied the Trump administration's request to block a lower court's order for the administration to pay nearly two billion thousand foreign aid money, delivering a near term reprieve to international aid groups and contractors seeking payment for previously completed projects. I want to pause and just say I do not believe it's

fair to call them previously completed when we learned that a lot of these projects were nonsense in the first place. And I would call them spiritually fraudulent in that literal fraud requires deception to extract funds. And the Biden administration and government was well aware of what they were doing. But I called spiritually fraudulent because the American people would never approve of these expenditures at their their cost. In a five to four ruling, the justices said that the February 26 deadline imposed by a lower court for the Trump administration to pay the funds had already expired and directed the case back to the district court to clarify any additional details on payment. Given that the deadline in the challenge has now passed and in light of the ongoing preliminary injunction proceedings, the district court should clarify what obligations the government must fulfill to ensure compliance with a temporary restraining order with due regard for the feasibility of any compliance timelines. U.S. District Judge Amir Ali, for his part, moved quickly Wednesday to take action on the matter, ordering both parties to appear in court Thursday to consider plausible repayment schedules. So let me just give you the quick gist. Trump says don't pay this. Why?

Because his view is largely that they were funneling money in ways that are untoward. I'm being careful because it's not it's not fraud when Biden gives you the money and you're not doing anything for it. In one instance, they found, I don't know where this payment came from, but there was a story of a child center or some facility was built getting $18 million per month with no one in it. It was completely empty. There was one story about the Biden administration started funneling money through the EPA to various climate change groups that previously had no money on the books. In one instance, an NGO had made only $100 the year prior and received a multimillion dollar grant. So basically, the gist of this is with USAID, Trump's like, no, no, no, we're freezing this. A lower court said, pay it. I'm sorry. Yeah, no, we're freezing this. A lower court said, pay it. Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah, Trump said we're freezing it. A lower court said, we're temporarily freezing

your ability to freeze the payments. Make the payments. Trump appeals. The court, the appellate court says we have no jurisdiction on this one. The executive branch determines if they make these payments. It's called what's it called? Cyber immunity. And then they go to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court issues a temporary stay on the lower court stay. So Trump's is in effect. The Supreme Court then vacates their stay, triggering the lower court. So Trump now technically has to just make the payments. This is absolutely insane. Let me put it simply. Donald Trump is trying to stop two billion dollars of your taxpayer dollars from going out in ways he does not feel are legitimate. There's been no ruling on the legitimacy of these payments, but the court's requiring him to pay it.

This is nuts. I read Alito's dissent, and I was actually really surprised that this was considered or that the court found this way in the first place. The executive has to be able to say no to things this type of uh this type of uh behavior and i i was really surprised that uh that the scotas found this i was expecting it to be um five four the other way at least so well this is a slap in the face for all taxpayers i mean the kinds of things that were found in this were unbelievable like lg activism in Serbia, you know, Egyptian tourism. Nobody would vote for this as a taxpayer. But the judges, I don't know who the judges were that voted for this.

I'm kind of curious now. Oh, it was the liberal justices Roberts and Amy Coney Barrett. Really? Amy Coney Barrett, too. Well, that's obvious. She kind of hates Trump. Yeah, she's she's Yeah, she's not great. People are spreading around this clip of her from last night, like looking at Trump with such disdain and disgust on her face.

You can tell. She was a mistake. She was awfully pre-clempped about the death of George Floyd, cried about it. Oof. Well, I mean, she's better than a liberal, but she's not great. And so I have a question here. This is an interesting issue, right? Let's say there was a federal office that said we're instructing our employee to go and strangle that woman across the street to death.

And then Trump was like, whoa, that's illegal. You can't do that. We're putting a freeze on that. And then liberal group sue. A court says, no, no, we're pausing Trump's order. Complete that action. Strangle that woman. So Trump, you know, says, no, we're not going to do this. He goes to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court says we're not getting involved. The lower court carry out your order. Thus, the action must be completed. This is a very obvious circumstance where an illegal action was offered up. Trump was trying to stop what appeared to be an illegal action, and the courts told him to do it. Obviously, that's not what we're dealing with. The reason I give that analogy is, in this case, that is Trump's argument. These payments are not legitimate. They must be

stopped. And the courts are basically saying, no, Trump, the crime must be completed. Who enforces what in this regard? Trump as the executive branch, if he truly believes this is illegal and it's not been ruled on the merits, whether it is or is not a legitimate legal payment, maybe it is fraud. Who knows? And a lower court says you can't pause as it has to get paid. Can a lower court instruct the executive branch to commit illegal actions or commit actions it believes to be illegal? Yeah, that could who can enforce against it? And back to the question about whether judges have the authority to prevent the president from or the executive office from making decisions, because this was initially it stemmed from a U.S. district court. And Amir Ali on February 13th bar prevent the executive from essentially carrying out the will of the people. The president's the only elected official that's elected by the whole body politic, right?

The representatives are all representing certain districts. They're representing states, et cetera. The president is the only elected official that's elected by all of america the whole country he won all seven swing states the whole country swung to the right so the the president has a a clear mandate i know that the the left hates to hear it but it's it was clear that the States, the people did not like the way the country was going. You look at polls, the right track, wrong track. The whole country was strongly felt like we were on the wrong track when President Biden was in.

Now that President Trump's in, they feel like the country's on the right track. So this again, this that I do agree with people that say that the SCOTUS should not be making decisions based on what the people think. That's fair. But at the same time, I don't see how this I don't see their their, you know, their their reasoning for why this should should be. And I do think that the president should be the executive that and it should be that the executive gets to decide how the executive office you know how it's executed yeah well i mean especially when it comes to two billion dollars if trump is saying hey this is not legit usaid is basically shut down he's laying people off we've seen over and over again that many of these payments were going to nonsense ridiculous organizations that were doing nothing, gender studies in

Pakistan, whatever it might be. So Trump says, let's not give this money away. How can you how can a court instruct Trump to break the law? And BT dubs, this is who we're being told as a fascist dictator. Yeah, I mean, as for what you said about a popular mandate, I don't know why, but they had Stephen A. Smith on The View like a day ago. And he was trying to explain to these mentally disturbed women what a mandate means. And they couldn't quite grasp it. He said he won the popular vote. And they were like, oh, but like only by a little, though.

Like just like by a tiny percentage, though. So that means that it's not the will of the people. And then he's like, he won every want every swing that's literally how an electoral college works but he stephen a smith said he won every swing state 89 of counties shifted rightward he won the popular vote for the first time since two for republicans first time since 2004 he increased his vote margins among black and latino voters he's got a mandate and he's like we can sit here in hemming hall we want that's a mandate yeah indeed well he put a 90-day freeze on this and there is some nuance because the 2 billion isn't all usaid payments so it's only some existing

contracts so he still has frozen some so there's a little bit of nuance to it um but it's still not great i mean what would happen if trump just says we hear we ignore you we're not we're going to do whatever we want i mean what can they do that that has happened before you know the chief justice has made his decision now let's see him enforce it exactly this is uh i was talking to will chamberlain a while ago and uh he's a lawyer for those who don't know a friend of the show he was on recently i believe when when i was out and um i asked him why doesn't supreme court just take the obvious positions that are correct i think we were talking about texas v pennsylvania in 2020 and he said because they have no enforcement mechanism and if they make rulings that are too

let's just say strong that people are going reject, then it's revealed the emperor has no clothes. So the Supreme Court tries to make rulings that they feel are in line enough with the current social fabric so that they will actually happen. If the Supreme Court comes out and issues a ruling, say like in 2020, that Trump actually won or something, then the blue states are going to say enforce it. And then people realize Supreme Court rulings don't mean anything. So they try and keep things a little tempered, as it were. And then that basically means they don't issue the rulings where they need to be issued. I mean, I suppose that does that does make sense.

But it is true that the you know, the SCOTUS doesn't have any means of enforcement. Marshals. So, like, what are they going to do? They're going to go raid a government bank account and force an employee? What if Trump was like, who's in charge of issuing these payments? They're like, I am. So you're fired. It's like, OK, all right.

Who are you going to enforce now? There's no one who does that job. It's true. What are you going to do about it? Let's jump to this next story, ladies and gentlemen. This is a bombshell report from West Virginia Watch. Now, what's fascinating. This is a bombshell report from West Virginia. Watch. Now, it's fascinating is this is a local news story to West Virginia. But I'm going to tell you, this is one of the biggest stories in the nation right now.

West Virginia said it passes bill banning artificial dyes in food. Opponents say it's overreach. Cry more. Quote, this is probably the most important bill that we will vote on in our entire careers here, said Senator Laura Joachim Chapman, Republican of our Ohio. OK, our health is not for sale. Is that like Ohio County or some? The Senate overwhelmingly approved a bill banning synthetic dyes in food. Republican lawmakers stressed that it would make food healthier for West Virginians who have some of the worst health outcomes in the country. The measure House Bill 2345, which already cleared the House, would prohibit the sale of any food with certain types of yellow, blue, green and red dyes, including red 40. That helps give candy its cherry red hue. And I believe it's made from those little mites. They have like an aluminum substance in them that is bright red.

And they mush the little mites and then it makes red and you eat it then there's tartrazine which is a yellow dye which is made from coal tar gross so um basically let me uh here we have bill status here can i see this uh i want to read the actual text of it uh we'll pull that up in a second but i'll tell you why this is one of the most important things happening in the country right now. Let's say West Virginia is not the biggest market for any food product. But there is what, like a million something people live in the state. So how many boxes of cereal, perhaps? Let's say toaster pastry of some nondescript brand. And they've got blue, red and yellow dyes in them because the sprinkles on their strawberry toaster pastry nondescript item.

That company now can't sell in the state. They're going to say you can't sell those here. They've got a banned substance in them. This company is going to going to now have to do a cost benefit analysis where they say, how much will it cost for us to shift into a non synthetic dye to use natural dyes like banana, carrots, or blueberries, which is, I believe, what Canada does. They don't use bananas. Well, they might actually, something like that. In Canada, they use carrots and blueberries and raspberries and stuff for the various colors.

And they might say, it's going to cost us $10 million to change production. Okay, how much money are we going to lose in West Virginia? We're going to lose $10 million. They're going to say, so we break even? But then in the following years, we make that money back. Okay. Change to all natural dyes. This could have nationwide effects on all food production because one state did it. That's crazy. I also wonder what that means for us going to the grocery store in West Virginia, because literally every food item has these chemicals in them. And now.

Something you've been consciously avoiding? Food dyes? Yeah. Well, I mean, like, I got Pop-Tarts downstairs. You know what I mean? Yeah, I was about to say. And they're delicious. You ordered, like, about a billion of them. A thousand.

A thousand. A thousand Pop-Tarts. Come on, we got, like, 30 people who work here. Those things are going to be gone in a few weeks. The brown sugar cinnamon is the best flavor. Oh, by far. Yeah, so good. We do have s'mores and cookies.

You know, whatever. We bought them because Julia, who skates here, she says they're illegal in Europe. So you can't get them. And we were like, what? So we had to buy them. So we had to buy a bunch. And then when they're back, we're going to make ice cream sandwiches out of Pop-Tarts. Listen, RFK Jr. eats cheeseburgers sometimes.

Being healthy doesn't mean only eating carrots like a rabbit. I think this is one of the best things we have seen in the country, and I'm glad it's happening in West Virginia. Now, if only they would get rid of that crackpot Uber law where they ban independent contracting, maybe we could have something going good here. But I got to be honest, this is a grand slam from West Virginia, a grand slam. Shout out to West Virginia. I'm curious, though, if they make purple dyes. Do they use the red and the blue, or do we need to watch out for the purple ones because they're still bad?

Probably only the primary colors, I'm guessing. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know if this is outdated information. I'm pretty sure that West Virginia is still the highest obesity rate in the country. No way. Yeah, in the entire country. I don't know why that is, but I doubt artificial dyes are to blame. Dang, I thought that would have been Texas.

I think... Isn't that true? Highest morbid obesity rate in the entire country? I don't think so. In West Virginia? Let's find out. It might have been relatively recently. My money's on Texas or another southern state. I thought it it was texas is it yeah let's find out it's pretty high up on the list west

virginia has the highest adult obesity rate in the u.s 41 followed by louisiana and oklahoma 41 yep this might not be the the the principal reason but it's a good start. Yeah. The tastes are changing, I think, especially among young people. I noticed that Sweetgreen, this really trendy, fast, casual salad chain, just introduced so that you can follow the trend of against like not eating seed oils, which is like kind of it's interesting, like how the fashions of food change. Because I remember like five, 10 years ago, everyone was going vegan and everyone was drinking oat milk and eating all of these weird boutique vegan food brands, which are hardly even food. And now the trend has shifted and young people want to drink bone broth. And yeah, and I don't want to eat seed oils anymore. And Spindrift. Yeah, exactly.

Spindrift, sponsor us. You're great. They're posting pictures of their dinner on a on a rustic cutting board. They're really into like eating raw meat meat and things like that. That's cool now. Look at this. Spindrift. They know what's up.

You know what's going to be funny when it turns out the guy who runs it is some super woke crazy guy? But that's fine. You make a good product. Carbonated water, grapefruit juice, orange juice, lemon juice, and hibiscus for color. They didn't got to mush those little bugs and put them here to color it. They put a little bit of flowers in there. And hibiscus for color they didn't gotta mush those little bugs and put them here to color they put a little bit of flowers in there and hibiscus tastes good so uh we got the bill pulled up this is this is amazing stuff a bill to amend and reenact 1672 the code of west virginia 1931 is amended relating to the prohibiting certain products that are injurious to health

yo check this out any drug or article of food shall be deemed to be adulterated within the meaning of this article for the purpose of the article. In the case of drugs, if when sold under or by a name recognized by the U.S. pharmacopoeia, is that how you pronounce it? Official of the time, it differs from standard strength, quality, purity laid down therein. Let's just say blah, blah, blah on the pharmaceuticals. They're basically saying like, if we already think these things are bad, which includes heroin, blah, blah, blah, we're including that. But let's scroll down because it is actually, this bill is actually more pronounced than just dies. If any inferior or cheaper substance or

substances have been substituted wholly or in part for it, if any, oh, I should start with the food or drink, right? In the case of food and drink, confectionery or condiment, if any substance or substances have been mixed with it so as to lower or depreciate or injuriously affect its quality, strength, or purity, that's insane. That's crazy. If any inferior or cheaper substance or substances have been substituted wholly or in part of it. So this is going to get rid of like certain, like this could actually get rid of certain seed oils.

If they're using vegetable oils in replace of dairy or something, one could theoretically argue. If any valuable or necessary constituent or ingredient has been wholly or in part abstracted from it. So like non-dairy cheese, maybe if it is an imitation of or is sold in the name of another article. Whoa. If it consists totally on part of disease decomposed, we get that. If it is colored, coated, polished, powdered, where whereby damage or inferiority or is concealed fine, or if any means is made to appear better or greater than the value than it really is. It's interesting. And here's the juicy part. If it contains any added substance or ingredients which are poisonous or injurious to the health, including butylated hydroxyanisole, propylparaben, FD&C blue number one, FD&C blue number two,

green number three, red number three, red number 40, yellow number five, and yellow number six. They go on to add, if it's sold under a coined name, it does not contain some ingredient suggested by such a name or contains blah, blah, blah. There's a couple in there that are pretty massive. And it goes on to add unsafe food additives prohibited. Article 5D West Virginia Feed to Achieve Act, red dye three, 40, yellow five, yellow six, blue dye one, blue dye two, green dye three 40 yellow five yellow six blue dye one blue dye two green dye three and then it adds an elementary middle or high school may permit the sale of food items that do not comply with this section as part of a school fundraising event if the sale of those

items takes place off of and away from school premises or the sale of those items takes place on the school premises at least one half hour after the end of a school day. That's a ridiculous exemption at the bottom, by the way. Regardless, I'd like to RFK Jr. should be invited to West Virginia when the governor signs this and he's gonna. So this is this is this is statewide, right? It's not just statewide schools that it's a statewide ban on on all of these dyes. And that includes tartrazine, which which RFK Jr. did a big video about which is a which is coal tar derivative that they put in food and it's been associated with certain health injury effects look at this 32 yay two nay is that legit yep looks like it yeah wow good job

west virginia let's go governor better sign this there's going to be a lot of big companies pissed off because they're going to be like we're going to have to change so much of what we do to accommodate this the this this uh food do you guys assume that this is going to be something that other states are going to take up do you think that the federal government's going to jump in on this do you think yes um i think i'd like to see uh rfk junior start lobbying congress it's it's narrow and it's going to be tough because big companies you're going to have a a big cereal producer and they're going to lobby the member of congress who's going to be a republican because they're going to be in some rural place in oklahoma and they'll be growing corn and they're going to say this is going to cost us an insane amount of money to make this change and that's

going to cost jobs and then when these people are all laid off because you voted on this we're going to remind them it was you and so you're're going to see some squishy Republicans on this one. But statewide, it's going to happen. Well, I mean, Republicans, there's a lot of arguments against it that you're going to get from small government conservatives, right? Anytime the government says you can't do this, you can't do that. There are small government conservatives that are like, no, this is bad on principle. Libertarians wouldn't like this. I think that I actually saw Michael Malice tweeting about he doesn't think that it's

good the government do these kind of things. What, banning dyes? Yeah. Why? I don't remember his exact... It's wrong. I don't remember his exact... Michael! Well, I think the reason was because the government shouldn't be involved in this kind of stuff. The government, he'd like... The corporations aren't entitled to the same freedoms that our

officials are. I am not going to argue Michael Malice's position. You've done it. Michael Labonte, you are wrong. My point only being that there are going to be people that are going to make those arguments. I do think that it's good to say, look, these type of substances, you shouldn't be using them in in in foods. The the things that Trump laid out in the speech last night, the the instances of child cancer, the instances of obesity, the you know what, how many I mean, I think it's 75 percent of America is overweight with 40 being morbidly overweight. That's unacceptable. There's no reason for our country to be like that. And I do think that it has something to do with a sedentary lifestyle.

Yes. But I also think that it's the food we eat and the things that are put into the food. I think that we should get rid of corn subsidies and stop having everything be made with so much sugar. Agreed. I do think it's the internet. I think the principal reason why Americans are so fat is the internet. 40.3%

of adults are obese. That's disturbing right there. We're late to the game on this though my buddy from england came over here and we went to the gas station he started looking at the different candies and reading the different ingredients he's like we don't have this over in england it's a standard of living thing like i think most people feel it's about time that we have the same standard of living and standard of health that European countries have.

I don't know why that's common sense to EU countries. The candies in the UK, they're great. Chocolate over there is awesome. It's actually better for some reason. The chocolate in the UK is better than the US. And they have the one that girls aren't allowed to have.

The Yorkie bar. Oh. It's not for girls. What? You don't know about this? You can't have it. Why? Because it's not for girls. Is there a black market for these?

Nope. If you walk in and try and buy the Yorkie bar, they will tell you it is not for girls. I'm kidding, by the way. It actually exists. And it's like a famous marketing marketing thing that they did uh there you go yorkie it's not for girls i love it and there's a girl a woman and there's a red circle with a line through it what's that thing called i've never known what that was called a cross out or something i don't know i just had a circle with a line through it you know what it is but

it's and i understand they underline not. You were saying what the chocolate, Phil. Yeah. So, look, you know, the food in Europe is great. There's, you know, multiple places. It's not like you'll notice a difference, right? But it's not like things are worse. Honestly, a lot of times you go to fast food in Europe and it's actually better.

Like the way that it's prepared. And I think that has to do with the actual people that are making it um but like in the uk mcdonald's is like mcdonald's and and you know kentucky fried chicken is kentucky fried chicken it's great so it's not like it's impossible to make the things that we're used to without these chemicals and without these dyes and stuff like that it's perfectly possible it's and i think that you know it's not a bad thing for the government to say all right look we're gonna get rid of these things and at the very least see what happens so i will add the uh the bill will go into effect january 1st 2027 which i think it makes sense

um could you imagine if they banned it literally right now and like every store had to just dump all of these products? But this is going to be nuts because all the food lions and what do we have in West Virginia? We have Food Lion and Weiss. Weiss. We have Martins. Martins. I hear that they're doing a – this might not be in West Virginia, though. It might be down in Winchester.

I hear there's a Publix coming, which I really hope. Well, in West Virginia, at least, all of these supermarkets are now – their managers, their regional managers are probably saying, okay, we can't carry any of these products starting in 2027, so we need to start weaning off of them. They're going to start going to the manufacturers and saying, heads up, come January 1, 2027, we won't be selling your products. You need to get us alternatives. And it could be crazy. One of the things this might do, and this is crazy, West Virginia might see the emergence of state-independent food producers. So that is non-national chains.

You might be in Maryland. Who knows? You go to Maryland and they have Pop-Tarts on the shelf in a gas station. You cross the river and they have top parts. Whatever. I think if this gets picked up by other states, what you're going to start seeing is grocery tourism. Yes. People are going to travel to neighboring states that they know regulate food dyes and seed oils pay a premium for those foods because that

matters to them based people who live in the tri-state area which is virginia and maryland i guarantee you the hippie dippy loudon county people are going to be like we drive into west virginia yeah because they don't have kellogg's they have bell rugs and those fruity groups don't have weird dyes in them and you're gonna see like weird new products and there's gonna be like there's gonna be a cereal called slaps and it's gonna have like a toad who's like puffed rice is good then there's gonna be like lucky yarn and it's gonna be a brit British guy with a bunch of little shapes They should just donate all of the obsolete pop-tarts to me I will take them happily once this goes into effect the illegal pop-tarts illegal pop-tarts are mine

I call dibs I call it brown sugar cinnamon one as annoying as the health nut Is like that I feel like the health nuts are the new jesus freaks like they're just kind of i don't know i don't i don't like have a shift for the devout crunchy is no but like they're becoming like ned flanders about health food like that's what i mean and this like shift where crunchy ism is now a symbol of being right wing instead of left wing i i noticed the change and it's a little bit they can get a little bit annoying and they can get a little bit preachy about it. But aside from that, it is a status symbol to get health food nowadays. It's it's also with the popularity of something like Erewhon, which is known for $70 smoothies in L.A. They also sell just normal groceries at an extremely premium price.

And it's seen as a status symbol to eat healthy these days. And that's kind of a sad thing. I want to know what you guys think of the EBT idea, banning the purchase of artificial foods with EBT cards. I'll say real quick,

quick tip for anybody. If you want to find celebrities, stand in front of Erewhon. And, like, good luck spelling it. I don't even know how to spell Erewhon. I've been there. It's crazy. But, like, you stand outside and, like, every ten minutes a celebrity is walking in and out. Yeah.

I saw Jake Gyllenhaal there. And he did one of those things to me. He said, like, hey, buddy. I was like, oh. He's going to get in trouble because he said that. Oh, but this was 15 years ago. Okay, I thought you were more recently. I was like, Jake Gyllenhaal pointed at me.

And Tobey Maguire pointed at me once, too. That was cool. I was in front of a coffee shop. I was canvassing. And I was like, hey, sir. And he was like, not today, buddy. And I was like, yes! Tobey Spider-Man.

That's great. I'm excited for the, if I want Tobey Maguire in all the Spider-Man movies from now on. Him and Tom Holland, they can be friends. Oh, he was the best by far. Anyway, EBT, no artificial foods, based. Well, some people were saying you're taking away poor people's freedom to have sweet treats. I don't. Yo, I lived in Seattle and all of the people like the

government there hands out cash to anybody who asks. And so when I first moved to Seattle, I'll call it a long story, but my my first work plan didn't work out and I had something lined up before getting there. And so I was broke and I was looking for jobs. And someone said, you should go to the health and human services and tell them, and they'll give you a food card. And I was like, nah, like, that's not what I do. I'm not about that. And they said, bro, have you, have you been paying taxes? And I was like, yes. I'm like, that's your money. Use it now. Like you, you need it. Right. And I'm like, sure. And I was like, okay, like just go and see what they say. And I told them I just moved here. I had a job lined up. It fell through. I'm currently looking for work. And they, and they handed it right to me, like on the spot. They

were like, here you go. Um, I don't know if they actually literally, I think it came in the mail and they said something, you get like 114 bucks a month and you can only buy cold things. And I was like, sure. So I went and bought groceries with it. The other people that I knew it was what do you think they bought? They were buying garbage, candy bars, ice cream, just whatever nonsense. The reality was, though, that's not the worst of it. They buy a candy bar. I'm not going to cry. Right. They were selling it. They would stand outside of grocery stores and they would say, hey, what are you buying? And they'd be like, I'm just picking up like milk, bread and eggs. I'll buy it for you if you give me 15 bucks.

And so it's like 25 bucks for the groceries. They buy it on the EBT and get handed 15 bucks cash. Super illegal. That's what they were all doing. The whole thing is super corrupt. And I think they got to be way more strict about how they do this stuff. I ended up getting a job at a Pete's Coffee and Tea within only like a month or so after that. So I didn't end up needing it.

And then I served tea and coffee to people. It was fun. People with enough time to run an EBT scam outside of the grocery store should probably do what you did and just get a job. I don't understand like not wanting to have a job. Time on your hands to just stand out there heckling people. I wanted to do it. It's crazy. know look there are people who don't want jobs and that's crazy to me that's foreign to me like if i'm not doing something i'm like listless and guilty that just means you're human in america that doesn't want a lot of people human quality i thought well let's jump to uh all right if you want to hit one more i'm just i think that it should be obvious to get that people that are are on EBT shouldn't be getting junk food.

I feel like that's obvious. I guess the issue was that they were like, what constitutes junk food? Are you going to regulate the percentage of carbohydrates in an item? You know what I mean? Like, is dark chocolate junk food? It's got antioxidants and is actually considered to be a superfood. So maybe we allow dark chocolate, but not milk chocolate. And now.

Then you get into the weeds. So they basically said no prepared food because then you're going to McDonald's and Burger King, just groceries. But then you go to a grocery store and you're buying, you know, candy bars. Yeah. Let's jump to this next story from the Daily Mail. Trump issues a chilling final warning for Hamas to release all hostages or it is over for you. I would call that a death threat, but it's a president warning a terror organization. So it's a bit different. President Trump put out another dire threat saying Shalom Hamas, meaning it means hello and goodbye. You can choose release all the hostages now, not later, and immediately return all the

dead bodies of the people you murdered or it's over for you. Only sick and twisted people keep bodies and you are sick and twisted. I am sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job. Not a single Hamas member will be safe if you don't do as I say. I have just met with your former hostages whose lives you have destroyed. This is your last warning. For the leadership, now is the time to leave Gaza. While you still have a chance, also to the people of Gaza gaza a beautiful future awaits but not if you hold hostages

if if you do you are dead make a smart decision release the hostages now or they will be held to pay later holy crap what do y'all think cue the pro-palestine protests here we go yeah this is going to give you so much new material yeah i, I'm going to be working for months. I mean, that's a good thing. I mean, I don't know what this is going to actually turn into, because I feel like he's made these comments multiple times. Like he said, let the hostages go by the end of the weekend and let them go by this date. And nothing's actually come of it. So I don't know what this means.

I'm not sure what kind of policy the United States is going to actually implement. And it's not like Israel actually needs the U.S. help to do anything. They've managed to destroy Gaza without the U.S. being involved, really. So I'm not sure what Trump's doing other than maybe just like, you know, doing a, you know, kind of a placating kind of gesture towards Israel, maybe. I mean, this could be powerful because when have we ever seen a president make threats like this? I've never seen a president say something like this. And I think there's some strength behind it. You know know it might

actually make hamas think twice i don't know but we'll see maybe he's already threatened him several times yeah that's true yeah i think they're just like they're on the internet like what more can be done like they're hiding some of them are probably in qatar or dubai they're not even in gaza so what do they care? Yeah. You think we're going to see Israel, quote unquote, finish the job? There is no finishing the job. You're never going to end up with like a population of Palestinians in Gaza that are happy with the with the Israel. I don't believe that's not what finishing the job means. What do you think finishing the job means? I think he's saying Israel goes in and just like wipes it out.

Wipes out all the Palestinians? Not all of them, but, like, puts them back under occupation, militaristically destroys all political leadership or whatever structures they have, absolutely flattens the grid, the economy, the structures, and then just reoccupies. I mean, maybe. I don't. Gaza then just doesn't become a thing anymore. Yeah, I don't see a situation where, you know, Gaza returns to what it was before without Israel being in there. Like Israel got out in, what is it, 05 or something like that.

They pulled all the Jews out of Gaza. They pulled all their military out of Gaza. They pulled all their military out of Gaza. And then they got rockets for 20 years. And then they got October 7th. And so they're like, all right, we're just going to go and destroy everything and, you know, see how that works. I don't see a two-state solution at all. I think that it's probably going to be occupied by the Israelis for the foreseeable future. I only see more problems unless they can actually unless they actually do remove the Palestinians and send them to is to Egypt or Jordan or whatever.

But the Jordanians don't want them and the Egyptians don't want them either, because it seems like everywhere there's a significant population of palestinians they try to take over the government so well the crazy thing too is you're asking there's a larger population in gaza than there is in west virginia so you're asking for like two million palestinians to be moved that's a tall order whatever what if we banned artificial food dyes in gaza and that started helping them with their health issues? I don't think that that's going to do a whole lot, honestly. I wonder if they even have access to that. Do they have Pop-Tarts over there?

They do have. Look, I saw videos of before the Israelis went in there and just smashed everything. And it looked gorgeous. It looked like, you know, I know that there were things that they couldn't have. No, there are some luxury areas there. Yeah, it was. Not so much anymore. They had, you know, luxury car dealerships.

There was a lot of stuff that was, it looked to me like a normal city on the Mediterranean. I don't, you know, I don't know what the limitations were. I know there were things that they couldn't have, but I don't know exactly what those things were. And all appearances were it was gorgeous and the people of Gaza had relatively normal lives in Gaza. I don't buy

for a second the whole outdoor prison BS that the left in the U.S. has globbed onto. That seems to me to be BS. But now it's just you know rubble because war what happened you know because war um my only concern here is i just really don't want to be involved as the united states don't want to be involved in any of it and the only way out um i want to pay for it right but there's no there's no exit there's no door there's no way to to get out of it i think ultimately and it's funny because i i basically everybody agrees on this

even people who are pro-israel there has to come a time where israel can take care of itself and that means we should be working towards that goal immediately so it does that mean two three five six years whatever i don't think 10. I think it's way too long. Yeah. But I think what we don't want is Afghanistan times 300. If we just said tomorrow we're out, goodbye, good luck, then we'd have a very, very bad circumstance for sure. But I think there's a reasonable thing in, you know, I don't know, between five and 10 years of slowly reducing the amount of foreign aid to Israel so that they can start supplementing it on their own? It doesn't sound like we want to reduce it, though, with Trump's grandiose new Gaza plan, which I don't know about you guys. I think he's going to have to bring

transplants in because I can't imagine Palestinians working at restaurants and hotels that, you know, Israeli people are going to. I just don't see that working. I don't see I mean, look look i didn't i didn't think that they would be able to get along before october 7th yeah now since october 7th i don't think anybody likes each other any more than they did so i mean look it's it's just going to be a future of animosity for the you know or the future is full of animosity for the, you know, or the future is full of animosity for the foreseeable future. I don't think anyone that's alive this generation is going to feel any kind of magnanimity. Magnanimity. Magnanimity.

Magnanimity. Magnanimity. Whatever. I don't think they're going to have any good feelings towards each other at all. I think that this generation, for both Palestinians and Israelis, I think it's pretty much over. Yeah, that's why I think he has to bring in transplants. So who wants to move to Gaza? Hell no.

Hell no. no hell no well like if the entire population was displaced and they secured it with the most powerful like like there's just there's nothing left it's flat and they started building casinos or something people might want to come there in 10 or 15 years but that's just that's fiction that's not reality yeah you you can't have the people that are looking to you know shoot rockets into their and to their neighbor's backyard like you're not gonna have people that are looking to shoot rockets into their neighbor's backyard. You're not going to have people that are like, I'm going to go to Gaza and go to the Trump Hotel and gamble. Trump Hotel in Gaza. I'm not going to Mara Gaza or whatever.

Mara Gaza. So that way I can gamble and then hope that rockets don't land here. Hope the Israelis don't retaliate against something. What if he gave you just a gold star condo in the new Trump Tower? Would you move to Gaza? No. Is it a casino? It's a casino as well.

Tim Kast, IRL, live from New Gaza? Yes. Live from Maragazzo. Maragazo. Maragazo. The funny thing about Maragazo and Maralago when people are saying that is that Maralago means from the lake to the

sea. Oops. And then when you have Maragaza, it's like from the river to the sea. Awkward. Yeah. So what was the population in New Gaza? Maragaza Mara, Gaza, it's like, you know, from the river to the sea, you've got... Awkward. Yeah. Yeah. So what was the population in Gaza before? But Mara, Gaza, which is from the sea to Gaza.

What was the population number of Gaza before October 7th? Two million. Are you sure? I thought it was three. No. Was it two? Wow. I don't know.

I can Google it, but... That's massive. It's like Manhattan levels. Currently, it's 2.1 million, allegedly. Yeah can Google it. That's massive. It's like Manhattan levels. Currently it's 2.1 million allegedly. Yeah. So it was definitely... 2.1 million. From 2.26. Oh, okay.

Which I don't know if they can count. I'm just wondering how many of our illegals we could ship there theoretically. Wow. But it wouldn't even scratch the surface. So never mind. Well, they like 50 mil. Right. I like how you think. Have you guys have you guys seen the commercials from Kristi Noem? She has commercials as head of DHS saying, yeah, leave. She was like, if you are here illegally now and we remove you, the American dream is over for you and you could never come back but if you leave now we may let you in in the future so do the right thing yeah just commercial saying that so um the the concern though is i don't think we would send illegal immigrants to gaza

that's silly it's heading to ukraine right place the male population. They've already introduced the bill to grant citizenship to illegal immigrants who join the military. And then when war comes to the, you know, NATO, they're going to say that I do think that was a large component of their plan. bringing a lot of like young men and calling them refugees because there were there were these bills to grant them citizenship if they joined the military and then we get war with russia guess who's getting sent out on the first boats it's going to be those who are trying to get citizenship yeah so i don't know man my bigger concern is just do we actually want to be involved in these wars and i think the challenge trump has is that hamas probably knows we don't to be involved in these wars and i think the challenge trump has is that hamas probably knows we don't to be fair trump is dumping money into israel and he's not going to back away from that but considering his stances on ukraine and other places they may they may make the bet that he's got a limit well i mean it's it's really the american people that

have the limit and i think that even the people that have a positive view of Israel, they don't want Americans going and fighting in Israel or in Gaza at all. I think the unpopularity of that question would be somewhere in the 80s. That would be another 80-20 issue. There aren't a lot of people that are like, yeah, man, let's send Americans over to Gaza to fight for Israel. No, no one's going to want that. Nobody's going to want that. We're going to go to Super Chat.

So if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, share the show with everyone you know, and stay tuned. The Uncensored Call-In Show will be coming up at 10 p.m. at rumble.com slash timcast IRL for premium members. So check it out. It's goingcast IRL for premium members. So check it out. It's going to be a lot of fun. Not so family-friendly, but we're going to take calls from the members of our Discord server, and then we got some stories for you

that are not so family-friendly we'll get into. All right, the deplorable Mrs. Drake super chat saying, Greenland was named to trick people into going there. After we acquire it, let's change it to Red, White, and Blue Land. Isn't it fascinating that Greenland is just ice? Actually, what we should call it is what it really is. Frozen hellscape. Tundra. We're not after it because it's not like there's going to be parties up there. We're after it because it's strategically relevant. Trump could offer the people of

Greenland one million dollars each and it would be about fifty five, fifty eight billion dollars. So imagine if he said it's like nothing for the United States. That's that's one USAID rounding error. Yeah. Right. That's that's one month of Doge. So that's a lot of money. But for Greenland and control of the Northwest Passage, imagine if Trump said you don't even need a million. You could say two hundred thousand and say ten billion dollars to buy Greenland and control of the Northwest Passage. Imagine if Trump said you don't even need a million. You could say 200,000 and say $10 billion to buy Greenland. We'll give each each resident of Greenland get $200,000 from the U.S. government if you vote to join. It's not going to happen.

But I mean, that's that's something the government could do easily to buy it. I do think that it was cool that Trump was like, look, the people of Greenland should, you know, should should decide their own destiny and stuff like that. And then he said – He followed up that comment literally right after that saying, but we're going to take it if they like it or not. We're taking it one way or another. One way or another.

I think that the impression that I got from taking it wasn't that the U.S. is going to actually just annex it, but it's going to be like, look, we've got a military base. We're going to have military bases in Greenland because it's necessary for global security he's going to give money i mean look a million dollars let's say he offered 50 grand 50 grand to each household and it was like 1 billion people they're going to be like why not we get we get we get u.s passports we get u.s security we get investment infrastructure and hard cash i think Trump's going to win over Greenland. Not a lot of people.

What we could do, too, to appease the liberals is we could call it Rainbowland to shout out to the LGBTQ community. Oh, and then we can send all of the gay people there. Gays to Greenland. They're going to want to go there. All right. They can't be naked all the time if they go hey hey no they're not gonna want to go it's it's not that it's always cold in the summer it's always it's almost always sunny and what people don't understand about say like alaska alaska has the longest

growing season because yeah a lot of sunlight and so they have massive vegetation massive so in the summer it's crazy in the winter it's crazy that's all it is it's go. We got Man of History says, Tim, earlier you were talking about pizza and or food with the best ingredients. If you're ever in the Houston area, may I recommend pepperonis? Indeed, you can. Papa John's is the best. And that is not me just saying, man, I sure love pizza. When you look at the ingredients, Little Caesars and Papa John's are the best, but Papa John's is slightly better than Little Caesars. The ingredients are largely the same, but Papa John's actually makes it on the spot. They take the dough. The dough is, it's like, it's like, um, flour, yeast, and water. It's, that's it. And they literally just make regular

and like salt or something. And, uh, their cheese is legit real cheese the sauce is minimal ingredients papa john's uses like real ingredients pizza puts splenda in their crust yeah little scissors is good but they they're like uh they make them on the spot but the the the dough is pre-made i believe the crusts are like pre-made and shipped there though the ingredients still are just like flour and and yeast and then domino's has a bunch of stuff in their crust as well, like preservatives or whatever. Papa John's is the way to do it. I'm a big fan.

Alright, we have a bunch of superhits saying F. There's no sound. There's no sound. We figured that one out. Thanks for paying to let us know. Yes. Alright. Captain Winkle says, yeah, one of my chats was finally read about Ukraine and the cartels. I even have the white cat t-shirt and everyone thinks it's a portrait of my cat, Mr. Bunkers.

Keep up the great work. I'm a ghost girl. What does that mean? I don't know. I'm oh. Don't know. All right. Let's grab some more super chats. It is freezing on me. Jonathan Vela says, Byron dumped on Wu and Luna flamed all four sanctuary mayors today. Pure gold. Can't forget Mace slamming them too.

Indeed. Also, another interesting story we didn't get into was the criminal investigation to the Tate brothers in Florida. And Byron Donalds came out in support of it. I'm actually largely freaked out by it because I feel the only reason they're going after him is because he's famous. I get that he said a bunch of really awful things on camera on various shows

several years ago about something he did years prior. So you could make accusations against him, but there's something that's kind of just like, by all means, if you commit crimes, go after him. If he's admitted to it, then investigate those things. I get it. I get it. I'm just saying it kind of freaks me out that some dude, he flies to Florida and then immediately they're like, we have launched a criminal investigation or executing search warrants against them. And it's like, whoa, like that's kind of I don't know. It just feels kind of weird.

I don't know. What do you guys think about that? You think they should be doing that? I don't think that I don't think that an investigation is beyond the pale um i don't think that it's obviously i don't want to see you know an abuse of power i don't want people to to you know throw the guy in jail just because they don't like him he said some things that people don't like that's fine but he's also admitted to crimes on video and stuff like that so if they if they do an investigation and it's legit fine um so which crimes did he admit uh he's admitted to uh so here's i'll say this i i've seen only a bunch

of viral clips that people have shared but the problem i have with that always is that people take things out of context all the time there's a There's certainly a litany of videos of him saying things like take their accounts – like one where he said don't let them control their social media so they can't leave you and they have to do whatever you say. So he's basically saying like he puts women in a position where they can't leave and they'll do whatever he wants. They'll get – the issue I suppose is that some of the accusations made against them have to do with underage girls. All of this is really, really awful stuff. And so part of me is like, if a guy goes on camera and says he did it, you got to investigate him. I don't care who he is. The other part of me is Florida wasn't investigating him at all. And then he flies to the United States to do a podcast or whatever. And immediately Florida's like, get him. And I'm like, no, I don't know. It just seems

disconcerting, I guess. But I suppose the real question is, I guess, investigate the guy if he said it on camera, you know? Said what, though? What did he say on camera? It's been a while since I've even kept track of this story. This is the thing about the videos that have gone viral, is that he's largely talking about amoral degeneracy behavior.

Oh, yeah. Throw him in jail. OK. That's how i feel why do we need to even litigate like who how old were they blah blah no just throw him in jail degenerate gone yeah i mean that's legitimately how i feel i know i'm being a little bit tug and cheek but like we should have obscenity laws and moral policing and and seduction should be a crime on the books.

And that's exactly what he has described himself doing to these women as a manipulation tactic. Seduction. I think one clip that was circulating recently, which is what you said. I think you were off air when you said it was like the reason why he was kicked off Big Brother in the UK. Yeah. The video of him beating that chick with a belt. And then he said like, oh, we were just doing, like, BDSM.

Don't care. Go to jail. But people have figured out that that chick is allegedly, what does he call it? His bottom bitch. He's like his favorite. Vivian is her name.

She's since claimed on video that it was all consensual and whatever. Who cares? But people have done the math and figured out that it was all consensual and whatever who cares but um people have done the math and figured out that she was in fact like 15 in that video again don't care um like yeah lock him up it basically that's how i feel like if you're being a degenerate and promoting that like the thing i i don't care what happens to you like i'm not gonna lose sleep over it the issue i see with it is that at this point the dude clearly is not going to be holding any evidence or have any proper and that's going to be any evidence for any crime

after the romania thing fell apart which is weird like how does the romania case against him fall apart but i'm pretty sure they didn't drop the charges though in romania yeah i think well i i again i don't follow it all that much but it's been a year it's been a couple years now hasn't it yeah i don't i don't follow it that closely either but i'm pretty sure they did not drop the but it has it has completely fallen apart to the point where he was able to leave the country yeah he's not going back right yeah if i understand but i thought that they were going to extradite him to the uk because he also faces charges in the uk and he's not there that's right so is the u.s gonna extradite him to the U.K. because he also faces charges in the U.K. And he's not there.

That's right. So is the U.S. going to extradite him to the U.K.? That is an ally of ours. I don't know. We're responsible to do that. Yeah. I mean, look, the overall situation for Andrew Tate is not looking good in general. Like, he's got a lot of money and he's got a lot of people that that have bought into his uh

his club and everything the he says the most bizarre things so he was on pvd right yeah that's why he's in florida yeah uh and he said that the reason why i didn't admittedly i did not watch the clip but the caption said he claims men went to epstein island because they're not allowed to have multiple wives. What? And I was just like, does anyone hate men more than Andrew Tate? Like, you just think all men are pedophiles? Well, that and he said... Sorry, this is supposed to be a family-friendly show. Didn't he recently tweet that a man should have as many children,

as many women as possible because then you're a conqueror? And it's like, well, the Western world, the greatest civilization in human history, was built on monogamy. Ghetto. He just said something extremely ghetto. All right, here we go. We got the real Hydro.

He's got a couple of good ones today. He says, Tim, you should just become a Christian already. You know it's the best path, and you already know so much about Christianity. We were actually discussing this a little bit before the show. The issue is I don't believe in Christ, so I'm not going to lie and pretend I do. It's just not in me. But I do think that the Christian moral tradition is the superior moral tradition, and I believe it is need to go – I need to sit down with Jordan Peterson. That's what I need to do. How far are you willing to investigate the question?

Because it's really all about did Jesus Christ resurrect from the dead? Sure. I recommend a book on this called The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel goes through the witness accounts and historical documents from the time. And just argument by argument, I think that it would really resonate with you or someone who feels to you. I grew up Catholic. I think the first problem I had was the Catholic Church did nothing to actually teach philosophical understanding of their moral framework and belief structure. They took it for granted, largely, and they did not explain it very well, which led to my family, or I should say me personally, becoming a teenage angsty atheist. Only for a few years,

though, until I actually started reading about quantum physics and philosophy and then spoke with a few individuals and said, oh, wow, OK, I do believe in God and I do believe that there is like divine will and things like this. But I don't understand how that then confers to a mandate in the Bible or like that scripture as the structure of what is true and blah, blah, blah. So what I can say is I think that God is observable. I think God exists. I think God does play a role in the universe and on earth. And he certainly does intervene in existence and creation. But I don't believe—I don't know why I would follow Scripture.

I don't know that it's proven to me in any meaningful way that it is fact. And I've been told throughout my life, just, you have to have faith in it. And I'm like, well, to be fair, telling you to have faith doesn't actually ignite faith within me. And I'm not going to lie and pretend it does. What do you think you would need to see to believe in Jesus's reality, I suppose? Because history, there's a bunch of different historical documents that prove he lived. What would you... I believe he lived. And I think the political component of the story is of a great man. It's fascinating. I watched The Passion for the first time, like a year and a half ago. And the message I got from it was deeply political. I don't know that anything short of a miracle would change my mind.

I just don't. I can see the logic in the moral structure and why I view it as largely superior. The Constitution, the moral framework of the United States, the success the United States has had, and the vision we as a nation and the good people of it, not everybody, have for the world and what we're building and hoping to create. I can look at the past and I can look to our plans for the future and say, I believe largely the Christian moral tradition has led us on the right path, and its current structures, particularly the Ten Commandments, are the simplest way to explain the best logical path forward for a sound system that will bring us to prosperity. I can look at other moral traditions and say, wow, they do really bad things we don't like. And that is a bad thing.

We don't want to follow that. But I don't know if it's ever possible to convince me of a faith-based system just to believe in it. And again, I'm not going to pretend that you could. If someone came to me and said, read this book with all due respect, I'm going to read the book and say,

that's a really interesting opinion from a guy who experienced something I did not. You know? Well, I don't, it's not a personal account. He is a historian. So I highly recommend that. All right. I'll take it.

I'll take a look. Do you believe in heaven and hell? Uh, no, not really. You know, uh, maybe, maybe 20% is going to hell. I'm just kidding. I want to, because I would agree with that. Pray and Nancy Pelosi is going to hell. I'm just kidding. I want to because I would agree with that. Pray for Nancy Pelosi. No, everybody – I don't know if I believe in the traditional Christian's view of a heaven and a hell.

But I think when you have conversations about religion with theologians, it goes from a more simple view to a more philosophical, expansive view. And so talking with Seamus about it, the way he described it, and you know, I don't want to cite Seamus because I could be getting this wrong and I don't want to imbue beliefs on him that are not correct. But I've had people explain to me that the perception of hell as like caves with fire is overly simplistic and meant to describe a phenomenon to people who are at the time illiterate or incapable of understanding. And that what you're actually saying is that you will be separate from God and outside of his warmth, his love, his creation. And so heaven is an indescribable phenomenon of being with God and hell is without.

And in that regard, probably I'd agree with largely something to that in that respect. Well, if Seamus said that he would be correct. It's probably what he said. I just didn't want to be like, because I don't remember exactly what he said. No, shout out Seamus. I share that belief as well. Yeah. So but we'll grab some more super chats and we can we can talk more about this maybe in the uncensored for a few minutes. What do we have here? Let's see. Tao HK says, No, Tim, religion is a cult like the left that uses God to enact war for land.

I would say this. Wow. I believe that, with all due respect, that is how I viewed things when I was in high school. I am not saying that to imply that the belief itself is sophomoric. I am saying that that to imply that the belief itself is sophomoric. I am saying that upon reading books on philosophy and morality, and again, reading about quantum physics played a

big role in this, and that's all just really faith-based, to be completely honest. I'm assuming these things are correct. So I try to build things based off of what I can touch, smell, see, and hear and interact with in the world and how I can make things work. So I don't completely agree with that. I do agree evil people will manipulate things to their ends. So when you take a look at wokeness, you can take a look at things that are inherently good that are turned evil. Fighting racism, I think, is a good thing. It is bad that people mistreat others because of the way they look. I'm not a fan of that. The woke have turned that into an evil structure. They've used that as a weapon. Certainly, Christianity has strong and good moral

traditions and structures. The Ten Commandments are largely, I would say, a great logical system for a prosperous society. And there are evil people who would claim to be divine or prophets or whatever to push people into dark paths to manipulate them. Evil people doing evil things does not inherently mean that a belief structure or moral tradition is a bad thing. So some religions are bad and have bad moral traditions, and some are good and some are the best. All right, we got a lot of religion ones today. Drewish says, God created us with a desire for him and something greater than ourselves. All of us try to fill it, but only those seeking God will accomplish it.

I do believe that there is divine mandate from God, and I believe that we are we must be dutiful to him. Probably largely because I grew up Catholic, but I don't, again, like, I'm not going to pretend that I read the Bible and said, wow, I believe this. I just, it didn't resonate with me. But I believe that there is a reason we are here, and we have duty and obligations that must be fulfilled. And that's why I have large disdain for many liberals, because they live only for themselves in the moment. And that's why also these like red pill dating bro guys largely exist the same way. Although many of them might be more anti-woke

to a certain respect, because they don't like how feminism attacks masculinity, they're still largely living in this world of everything for me and of me. You know what I mean? I reject that. I think we exist for everything else. I think the red pill guys are exist for everything else, you know? I think the red pill guys are right about the symptom, wrong about the answer.

Yeah. I particularly don't like the bang as many women as possible and have as many kids. Western civilization was built on monogamy. I know there's bad people who did bad things, and they created divorce, and there's no fault divorce. That doesn't mean that we abandon a strong moral tradition, which helped build prosperous families and civilization. And also the guys who are saying things like don't marry women because the state is bad and women might do bad things to you. They might divorce you and take your money. And I'm like,

first of all, who are you dating? Right. For the Christians out there who are going to church and meeting good Christian women of actual moral virtue, they have a lot less to worry about. And Catholics have substantially lower rates of divorce than any other denomination. We talked about this on the culture war last week when we were debating can the West survive without Christianity. and it was funny because it was like you know the the fellow who was making the argument against christianity as a strong world tradition like as a requirement said christians have comparable rights of divorce to secular individuals except for catholics who have like a ridiculously low rate of divorce and that's like fertility among christians is only slightly higher than liberals except for catholics who have substantially higher fertility rates. And so I'm like, you know, practice what you preach, man. Anyway, let's grab some more super chats and maybe we're going to talk about the religion all the time. Real Hydra with another banger. He says there is an app

called Yuka. Y-U-K-A. You can scan your food and it will tell you how healthy it is for you. Tim, you talk a lot and forget you have a guest sometimes but uh yuka is interesting one uh love doge says ban pet food die well there we go trident 54 chimes in anyone else remember when a bunch of old white democrats held up auction paddles need no punch line The memes write themselves. They do. Track media only says SCOTUS basically ruled they didn't want to rule on it. So it isn't on them to enforce anything. It would be the lower court trying to.

Indeed. And Alito was stunned. He was like, what? We just need to say outright. It's simple. They have no authority over the executive branch to issue this ruling. But of course, Supreme Court is scared. They are terrified.

Jonathan Westcott says, careful, Tim. West Virginia might raid you for having Pop-Tarts with artificial dyes now. That'd be a funny bit. We should do it. The law passes and, like, SWAT kicks the door in and they're like, where are the Pop-Tarts? I don't know. They're all in my mouth. They, like, punch a hole in the drywall and pull out just, where are the Pop-Tarts? I don't know. They're all in my mouth. They like punch a hole in the drywall and pull out just boxes and boxes of Pop-Tarts.

Those aren't mine, I swear. Book them, boys. Real Hydro, man, you've got a lot of serious super chats today. He says, most aluminum cans have a thin plastic lining on the inside. We are made of plastic. If you want to eat good, get chickens, lol. Based. True. Did you know that it is impossible to be depressed if you have chickens? I'm not a doctor and I have no scientific evidence for this, but I have to imagine anybody

who's depressed who just simply watches chickens could not help but laugh. It's impossible. Have you ever watched chickens? You know, I haven't, but now I think I might have to. You have to. It's hilarious. They're so dumb. And they make funny little noises. The hens, they go, as they walk around. And they want food from you.

They're hilarious. How could you look at them and be mad or upset? You're going to sit there and be like, this is the greatest thing I've ever seen. So you're not a dog person or a cat person you're a chicken person oh dogs are great too but like dogs are great for different reasons dogs are like loyal soldiers you know who will stand by you in your time of need cats are pompous little you know i don't know they're pompous i love them yeah they're but they exploit you. But it's okay. It's okay.

We tolerate that. Chickens. You know, we got a cat and we got a chicken right here. See, we like them. Chickens are just hilarious. They're so dumb. It's like you wonder how they can survive. They just, like, walk and, like, they just poop where they stand.

It is incredible how dumb they are. But they're dumb. Roosters have more honor than most liberal men. And many conservative men. He's talking about you, Kyle. Roosters will sacrifice themselves fighting off a predator to protect the hens. And you see stories all the time on X where it's like there was one very famous viral post had millions of views and it was like farewell to the noble rooster. He was fighting off a hawk that was attacking the coop and he saved his girls.

And Roberto, who is now going on, he'll be four, four years old. He's getting old. He's our he's our king regent of Chicken City. We had a moment a few years ago where we had the chicken coop was totally encased, except for a small door. The chickens could come out and graze in the little garden that we had. And a hawk swooped down and he yelled, alerted the hens and they all all the hens ran towards the door. He led them there and then stopped outside the door and waited for all of them to go in before he went in that's divine masculinity right there that's the noble rooster you know and we call chickens cowards yet chicken males die

for their families on a daily basis and there are a lot of men that you ever see the viral video where the flood hits and the dad jumps on the table and abandons his family what there's a family sitting at a table and a rogue wave like hits and water breaks through and the dad just like jumps up and runs for it oh my god and leaves the family behind i'm terrible embarrassing it is so embarrassing yeah absolutely and then you have stories of a pizza delivery man who saw a burning building and ran in to rescue two children and suffered burns to his arms. Because there are strong men out there. Right. Roosters. They're a good example. We call we call people chicken when they're cowards. But roosters are less likely to engage in cowardice, in my opinion, at least from what I've seen, than a lot of humans, a lot of humans. So get chickens. They're based. Let's grab some more super chats.

Ben Jammin says to those small government conservatives, it's safe to allow the Fed to ban poison from food. Agreed. I agree. Fungus Among Us says which side of the butter of the Pop-Tart do you butter? Obviously, the dry side. You keep the frosting on the other side. The butter is not going to soak into the frosting. So Pop-Tarts are delicious, but they get the dry corners, you know, a little dry. They're still good. But when you butter a Pop-Tart, not only are you damaging your health, you're enjoying a delicious treat.

Let's grab a couple more what does it say how do you say kyo kyoka soma kyoka soma what if they couldn't find demstaple because they've been deported aha jimmy says july 4th 2026 will be the 250th birthday of america it's 16 months away. Let's have the greatest celebration ever. We got to start planning for that. Trump was talking about that. Yeah, he was in a big ceremony, like every state would have a big party. It's next year, right?

Yeah, 16 months away. That's going to be boost during Trump's second term. A fun fact, the average length of an empire, 250 years. Indeed. But the question is, how long has America been an empire? Since after World War II. Then the next question is, does speed of communications increase the rate by which an empire will collapse? So when we look back at all empires, their communications were all very slow and usually handwritten notes. Until now, one could argue the American America, the United States became an empire after World War Two with

the creation of liberal economic order. But we have digital communications. So that rapidly speeds up social development for better or for worse. Interesting point. So could this be the end? Maybe not. Maybe we got 200 years left. Some argue that we're entering the Roman Empire phase. The Republic is dying. But don't forget, the Roman Empire had 200 years of prosperity. So we won't know any better. Trump will become emperor of America, conquer Canada and Greenland, and subjugate Europe.

And everyone will live in prosperity with wealth for 200 years until the empire collapses. Wow. Do you guys see Gladiator 2 by chance? No. Great movie, but it had this one line that I thought was fantastic. He said, the gates of hell are open every day. Smooth is the descent and easy is the way. And he said that to the emperors. I thought it was fantastic. Oh, geez. All right, everybody. If you haven you haven't already would you kindly smash that like button share the show with everyone you know
