From Amazon, MGM Studios comes Melania, a new film that takes you inside the 20 days leading up to the 2025 presidential inauguration through the eyes of the first lady herself. Step into her world as she orchestrates inauguration plans, navigates the transition, and moves her family back to the nation's capital. History's biggest stage on the biggest screen. Melania, only in theaters on January 30. House Oversight Committee Chair, Rep. Comer, is threatening Hillary and Bill. Bill Clinton with criminal charges for refusing to answer subpoenas related to the Epstein case. And wow, am I absolutely expecting nothing to happen? And it's a slow newsday where the only thing anyone's talking about is Epstein.

And we actually have a Democrat delegate caught colluding with Epstein to go after Trump and the Democrats are defending it. So I couldn't tell you why Trump all of a sudden once the Epstein files were released after saying they were bunk and then before that saying we'd release them. and then he gets elected and says they're bunk, but now he wants the rhythm. I got no idea what's going on other than I go to these mainstream media websites. I go to the front page and I'm like, what's the news of the day? And they have like 80 articles about Epstein, nothing substantive.

And that's why I'm like, so what's everybody talking about? What's a trending thing? Well, they're threatening a bill and Hillary Clinton with prison. Okay, to be fair, they did this to Bannon and Navarro. And so if the Republicans actually grow some, if you know what I mean, they might actually say contempt of Congress. see IDATA. But there is a big story in this Democrat Plaskett who was caught colluding with Epstein. She's now admitted to it, defended it, and is saying, well, no one really knew what he was doing at the time in 2019 when literally everybody knew what he was doing. He was sued, already

criminally charged, and was a registered sex offender. It's fascinating that the Democrats tried to go after Trump on the Epstein stuff. I don't understand. Did they not think at least one move ahead? I'd love to play them in chess for money. So we'll talk about that. and a whole lot more, a bunch of stories. Big Winter Storm apparently is going to come.

I have a lot to say about politics, and I like to share my perspectives through the language of comedy. So I do by multiple sketches a week. Don't even know the schedule. It's a lot. Right on. It should be fun.

Thanks for hanging out. We got race car driver extraordinaire, Cody Denison. Howdy. Who are you? What do you do? I know I just explained it. Tell us. I struggle to go in circles, which you would think would be way easier.

But I found it's a lot harder than I expected. You're better at turning left than anyone here. Well, that's damn sure. Whoa. I don't know. We were upstairs earlier. I don't know. I was teaching Cody the ropes because we got NASCAR 25.

Yeah. And I was trying to explain him. What you do is you just, when you're about to pass somebody, you nudge them so they spin out of control and crash. And I'm sitting here like, how did I figure this out before you? Yeah, dude, it's wild. Yeah, I've not even won a race on the game yet. You were just winning over and over. And I'm like, maybe there's something to this, but I'm the kind of guy that when I'm playing like Elder Scrolls Oblivion, I can't choose the mean option.

It just hurts my feelings for the NPCs. The NPCs, you want to let them win because, like, they're your friends. It's like, you know how it has an option where it's like, you know, get out of here, you fool. I'm just like, no, you can come with me and I'll save you every time. We need Cody to program the AI. That's what needs to happen. That way the AI will never be mean. It'll always do nice.

It's so kind. I can't help it, dude. No matter what play-through on any game, I just can't hurt anybody. I'm weird. Well, it should be fun. Thanks for hanging out. Brett is here. Better at turning left.

That means you're like the opposite of Zoolander. Yes. That is a pop culture reference from a long time ago. If you don't know I am, it's Brett, guys. Pop Culture Crisis, Monday through Friday, 3 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, which is, of course, noon Pacific. How are you doing, Phil? I'm doing quite well. Hello, everybody. My name is Philobonte. I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal and all that remains. I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary, and I am equally proficient at turning left and right, but not nearly as good as Cody.

Have you been watching Pluribus? Oh, come on. How do you not? We got to talk. I want to talk about that show again. Apple TV is for people who get shoved into lockers. Well, but Cloribus is basically a show about AI, and it feels like they're trying to convince you. takeover is a good thing. So, but we'll talk about that. Let's first start with this story from Newsweek. Bill and Hillary Clinton risk prison over Epstein's silence. They risk it. No Republicans got the chutzpah to actually do it. So I don't even know my Newsweek is writing about it, but they put it on the front page of their website because they expected to get clicks. House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer said on Tuesday that former President Bill Clinton

and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton could face criminal exposure related to newly surface Jeffrey Epstein documents. Quote, We expect to hear from Bill and Hillary Clinton. Comer said on just the news, no noise. Donald Trump answered questions for years about Jeffrey Epstein. Every day, he gets asked questions about Epstein, and he answers them in front of the American people. We've subpoenaed Republicans and Democrats. They go on to say the DOJ said Friday it's examining Epstein's reported connections to high-profile Democrats, among them, Bill Clinton.

Spartan investigation, Comer issued subpoenas to the Clintons and eight other individuals that followed the release by Congress last week of more than 20,000 pages of documents. A batch of newly released correspondence includes messages involving Trump. Among them, an email from Epstein's brother Mark, referring to photos of Trump quote, blowing Bubba, while Bubba is a nickname of Clinton.

Mark Epstein told Newsweek that the individual was not the former president. He described the exchanges as a lighthearted banter between siblings and said they were never intended to be made public or interpreted literally. Or Trump and Bill Clinton were more than friends. That proves it.

Is this why Trump didn't want the Epstein files released. All the evidence I need. He goes like, Pam Bondi's like, Mr. President, there's literally nothing in here that's incriminating at all. And he's like, okay, well, we should realize him. But there is an email claiming you blew Bill Clinton. Wait a minute. What? We can't release this. No, no, no, no, no. That's not coming out.

It's not illegal. I mean, think about how much power he would gain over everybody and went over the left. If he just came out there and was like, it's a presidential one. I had to do it. It was right in front of me. Everybody else, don't it? Every president, yeah, it's the hazing ritual for all presidents. And then everybody would be like, oh, wow.

He's great. Every president has to service every other living president as the answer of us. It's like the picture of Bill Clinton when he's at the desk and says, little do you know there's two people in this photo. It was actually true. It wasn't Monica Lewinsky. I was just going to say, personally, I am shocked to hear the Clinton's mentioned in association with Epstein. But also, to me, the most optimist.

part of this article. Somewhere in it says Newsweek reached out to the Clintons for comment, but no comment was returned. That's good. You know, I would have expected Newsweek to say, yeah, we reached out to Clintons for comment, but our reporter wound up hanging themselves in a tree out of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Two of them. Gun found 30 feet away. It's suicide. Sorry to see the reporter go. I mean, kudos to the reporters for actually reaching out in the first place. That's a dangerous. It's very courageous. Imagine being that guy. They did the thing where they reached out at like the last exact moment at like 11.59 p.m. and they got a turn in copy by midnight.

They're like, I asked. They didn't get back to me. It was an anonymous email. Someone started their own Yahoo account so they could send it to the Clintons. Dude, imagine being that one reporter and you're like sitting there, your cubicle alone. Sweating. The boss walks up to you and he's like, slides it towards your desk. They drew straws. Everybody's watching, like shaking.

It's like, it's your time, Rodrigo. here's what he said. So we expect the Clintons to come in or I expect the Clintons to be met with the same fate that Bannon and Navarro were met with when the Democrats were in control. House Democrats sought criminal charges

against Bannon and we know this about Navarro as well and actually they both went to prison. You know if the Republicans actually made some moves and arrested like Bill and Hillary Clinton

and it was like for four months I would feel pretty good, but I don't know if it's satisfactory enough. I mean, they're both old and out of the picture at this point. Is it just throwing some rotted red meat at the base to be like, oh, we're going to do something to Clinton's. They're not going to do anything.

I mean, just for comedy, just because it would be hilarious to see the Clintons actually facing some kind of repercussions for something they did, I think it would be funny. It would make people feel a little good, and then I wouldn't wake up in a sweat at 3 a. Every night like I do right now.

You know Hillary Clinton. She exists. Yeah, and I think if Hillary was in prison for a few months, Netflix could do a reality like women's prison show, that would be great. You got to imagine Hillary's going to be the boss running the prison just within three minutes. Yeah. Intimidating everybody.

You know, I would like to see if so, you know that scene from Watchmen where Warshak is in line, you know, this is what I'm talking about? But like, it's Hillary. Hillary, you're all, you're not. Some women's like, I heard, you know, and then Hillary grabs the thing and splashes the lady with, I'm not stuck in here with you.

Boiling oil. Or, I mean, to be completely honest, she gets into prison and immediately it's like, okay, boss, like she's already the boss of these people. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's going to be like those old mob movies where they had like their own rooms and chefs and they had pulled tables and cards and drugs and stuff. I mean, I got to be honest, if Hillary Clinton and Bill went to prison, outside, everybody would be cheering as they go in, you know, hands cuffed.

And Hillary is like, I'll get you for this Trump. And then as soon as the door closed, they uncoffer. Sorry, man. They hand her clothes. And then, like, right this way. And there's like a luxury suite. Yeah, the real way to take them down would be to go after their assets would be to go after. Is the Clinton Foundation even still?

No. It's shut down, man. They're 300 years old. So it's fine to say we want answers from the Clintons on this stuff. But they're like 300 years old. You know what? Can we just, this is, I suppose we should say, of course we want answers from the Clintons. but at a certain point they're so old

and it's so 10 years ago are there more pressing issues to focus on right now like Gen Z. I mean, how old are they? Like, 900. They're not 900. They're like what, in their 70s?

Just put Chelsea in prison. Well, we have the internet, so. In the 70s, you know, theoretically they could live to be Jimmy Carter age, so you know, Hillary Clinton is 78 years old. Yeah. So.

79. Hillary said, yeah. Wow. We went to prison for the rest of their lives that could theoretically be like, 20 years if they ended up like 20 years. They're at life expectancy so theoretically. We'll give them a certain sentence and then just put their kids in afterwards. If you get 20 years and if you don't make it the remaining years go to your daughter.

It's the crime family. Let's go. She's like, no, but if I get exonerated, you have to listen to Chelsea Clinton's podcast for the rest of your life. She have a podcast? I think she does. Yes, she does. I'm sure it's crushing it. I mean, her and Michelle Obama, just people care what they have to say. It's called That Can't Be True with Chelsea Clinton. And it's like one guy who comes up with all the phrase for every podcast.

I imagine they named her podcast after like their response to all the allegations against the Clinton family. That can't be true. Wait, hold on. That would be a good name for a podcast. It can't be the safest answer. She had a podcast called In Fact with Chelsea Clinton in 2022. I guess that's gone. How many, it has 300 reviews and it got four stars.

What was her first one? And she's got, that can't be true with Chelsea Clinton. And this one is ongoing. This is the new one that can't be true funded by the Clinton Foundation. She should start a true crime podcast called the Clinton Crime Penh. The views that thing would get would be astronomical. Yeah, women like Chelsea Clinton and they like true crime. So I imagine it would be one of the most popular podcasts on Apple Podcasts immediately.

So wait, you have to go to the Clinton Foundation YouTube. They have 12,000 subscribers. I mean, this is the thing. At what point are we like, I wish we got answers on the Clintons, but they're so old out of the picture. Are we just spinning our wheels? Well, I think they're probably the biggest name that's been named or allegedly involved with Epstein.

So I think people want to see that because they're the biggest name, but I don't think they're the most relevant. Like Bill probably wasn't in there running the operation and Epstein's working. for him. He's potentially a client, but I think there's bigger fish to fry when we're looking at getting justice on the crimes that happened. When you did, I was talking to you before the show, I mentioned that you did a video on Epstein and it was like it had to be like 2020 and it's one of my favorites. Like I still, I can still quote parts of it. And in the background, you had like a big thing. It's a Clinton body count. I think it was at 50th time. Yeah, no, it's interesting.

That video came out in, I think, February 2020. So right before COVID. And back then, YouTube was censoring talk about Epstein. Like that video got something done to it, some other stuff I did on Epstein. That was just nuts. Like, okay, big tech is censoring opinions on Epstein. That's interesting. Well, I mean, big tech was censoring basically anything that the Democrats told them to censor at the time. Allegedly, yes.

COVID opened everyone's eyes, especially just normal people. Yeah. Like, you have these niche groups of people that are in entertainment, or maybe they hold different opinions, which would normally be accepted in certain levels of entertainment. And all of a sudden, you know, everybody was finding out, you couldn't even say it on Facebook. I mean, normal people would say something on Facebook and get censored for 24 hours and get muted. So all these normal people started seeing this. And they're like, wait, something, something strange is going, you know, going on. Yeah. And I think that it was that this is something that we've said around

the table before. Even though overall COVID was a terrible thing, like the way the government behaving stuff. It really did open so many people's eyes to how deceptive the government is. And that's kind of a double-edged sword because there are people out there now where the default opinion is, of course the government's lying. If the government said it, it can't be true. And that isn't really productive at all. There are a lot of people that are just like, look, man, they got me when it came to COVID. I bought that. And now I won't get, you know, bamboozled again. So anything they say, they have to be lying. If the government says it has to be lying.

And I feel like that doesn't work functionally. I'm in that camp, Phil, and I like it there. You don't have to think just automatically. They're lying. Yeah. They said gravity's real. Is there an example you can think of of something that you've seen people saying, like this is clearly untrue and you're like, hold your horses?

Not off the top of my head. So you can say hold your horses. I can say hold your horses. Not off the top of my head. Um, mostly it's the thing that that at least strikes me the most is the attitude that people have. Like, so if you'll say something, people think that, think that now because they are skeptical of everything, that they're how, they're somehow like enlightened in some way and they're just like, oh. And it's, it's more of a, you know, like, you're so dumb and I'm so smart because I don't believe this or you believe, you must believe that. So you're dumb.

It's, it's more of the attitude that, that I notice more so than, than any particular topic or issue. I agree with you. To me, it's, you know, they probably call themselves a free thinker, but if their automatic default is a position of defiance relative to what a government official says, there's no thinking involved. Permavirs are right sometimes, right? If you're constantly saying the market's going to crash, the market's going to crash, the market's going to crash, the market's going to crash, and you're saying it for 10 years, when the market crashes, it's not that you were, like, had some kind of great insight, it's that you've been saying the market's going to crash. And so, when it finally does, eventually, you know,

the clock's, even a broken clock's right twice a day. Let's jump to the story from CNN. This, you know, this should be one of the biggest stories of our generation. And it is a Democrat caught colluding with Epstein when he was well known to have been a sex offender, trafficking minors. This Democrat says, but he was a constituent. He was texting with her telling her what to ask Michael Cohen. And they used this to go everywhere.

after Trump under these false criminal charges. Democrats are now trying to pin the whole Epstein thing on Trump. Trump's saying it's a hoax. I have no idea what's going on behind the scenes. But what I will say is, be it seasonal, be it fatigue, be it just an off year, people are pretty detached from politics right now. And based on this story, not getting nearly as much attention as it is, maybe I don't have to be worried just because it's an off cycle year and people don't really pay attention.

but I can't believe this is not a front page headline extra extra scandal. Let me show you this is the, so there's two components to the scandal. A failed effort to censure Democrats over texts with Epstein. More importantly, that some Republicans cut a backroom deal with the Democrats to protect this woman who colluded with Jeffrey Epstein. It is shocking. It should be disqualifying for all the Republicans involved. evolved, and every Democrat voted to protect her. I'm going to stress this. During a hearing,

this is Stacey Plaskett from the Virgin Islands. She, quote, represented Jeffrey Epstein. He texted her about specific names to ask about because Epstein knew about Trump's inner workings to a certain degree. And she did not. And she was using this information to smear Donald Trump. Fascinating. Epstein hated Trump. And Democrats are trying to act like they were friends, but no, actually, now the emails release prove he did not like Trump at all. and they were working with him the whole time. Listen to this. And I got a text from Jeffrey Epstein,

who at the time was my constituent, who was not public knowledge at that time that he was under federal investigation. See what you just did right there? He was not under federal. This was February, I believe it was February 27th. It was February of 2019. The Miami Herald story broke in 2018.

the investigation of which these issues were going on for a long time, and Jeffrey Epstein had already served time for soliciting a minor for prostitution and got a sweetheart deal. There are some speculating that she was in the pocket of Epstein, that she worked for him, that she was the delegate because he put the money up to make sure that would happen. And that's why she wasn't just colluding. He was telling her what to do.

But now it's just one last point. they were going to just censure her. That's it. That means they're going to wiggle their finger at her. And they couldn't even do that because I believe it was three Republicans cut a backroom deal to protect a woman working with Epstein.

This is insane that they tried to use against Trump, did it themselves, and then several Republicans defected to protect her. The funny thing is, we were just talking about your default status of not trusting politicians. This is why. Like weasel words used to get yourself out of trouble.

This is why people have a default status to just not trust anything a government official says. Because more often than not, you're going to be right. Maybe they're not always lying. But are they always self-interested? Yes, absolutely. And it goes beyond just, you know, one party, clearly. This is something where Congress will protect Congress because they're hoping that, well, when I need that vote, they'll vote for me. But in this case, she's not, I don't think, she's not even a voting member, right?

She's, she's, it's the Virgin Islands. I don't know that she even gets to, gets to vote on Bill. I got a question for you guys. Phil, you're a rockster. When you have issues related to high profile hearings about former presidents, current presidents, or frontrunners for the presidency, when you text your member of Congress advice, do they usually just agree with it? Do they give me to pushback and say it's not appropriate or, you know, they tend not to reply. They tend to ignore me. You actually have their phone numbers?

their phone numbers, I will send a message to the office and I generally don't get it. When you go to this hearing. Texting an actual personal line. That's strange. I mean, what about the rest of you? When you text your member of Congress, how does a conversation usually go? I get them on WhatsApp. Yeah.

Well, they don't respond to my texts unless I'm in prison. Then they're all about like, I need this guy's advice and then they want to hear me. That's probably the go-to, get yourself arrested and then. The point, of course, is she's saying, he was just my constituent. Yeah. Ah, yes. Yeah, I text my member of Congress all that. Well, to be fair, Riley Moore's at front of the show.

True, true. But the point is, weasel words. That's what I'm talking about. Weasel words when she says stuff like this, and this is why people don't trust politicians. Riley, Riley replies because he wants to be able to still use the skate park. That's why he actually will reply. Well, he needs to come skate. Riley.

Is there any word who the Republican members were that were part of this backdoor deal to protect her? There was a story about it, but like, I didn't see. I mean, we could pull the list. It was because I don't get the names. I don't, we could pull up the list of names. Tim Burchett's roasting him saying a handful of Republicans took a dive on a vote to strip Stacey Plask out of her position on House Intel because of her ties to Epstein. They did it to protect a Republican facing his own ethics issues from a similar vote.

This backroom dealish is swampy wrong and always deserved to be called out. This is wild. Nancy Mace called it a backroom deal. Democrats are on TV protecting this woman who was literally taking instruction from Jeffrey Epstein to go after Donald Trump. And three Republicans concerned with rep Corey Mills ethics issues

decided to protect Epstein. I got questions. It is crazy. They started framing Donald Trump as bad by using Jeffrey Epstein as like the example of saying like, well Jeffrey Epstein said he's bad, so he must be bad. Like it takes one bad guy to know another, I suppose.

Well, think about that for a moment, right? Because it was Trump's bad because he's best friends with Epstein. Now it's Trump's bad. bad because Epstein hates him. Yeah. Yeah. It's like you can't have it both ways, man. And it's even crazier to me that people will try to defend this. And the same people that try to defend this are the people that regularly morally grandstand about how much they, how much empathy they have and they care about everybody, but they completely ignore the fact that this thing that took place was 11 years

after Epstein was charged with child crimes. Yeah. They don't, they don't care. They just want the W, man. They just want the win. It's just about a vector of attack. Yeah, yeah. They don't like President Trump so they can go ahead and use if they can use basically anything that they can use to attack him they're going to use. By the way, at this point, when we look at Epstein's body of work, is it

considered anti-Semitic to criticize it? Or are we allowed to do it? Depends on what side of Twitter you're on. Okay. Depends on why you're criticizing him. If you're criticizing him because of him being friendly with Donald Trump, then it's anti-Semitic. If you're criticizing him when he was

attacking Donald Trump, well then, no, it's not anything. That makes perfect sense. I appreciate those rules. Don Bacon, Lance Gooden, and David Joyce. So that's Nebraska, Texas, and Ohio. And then there were three who voted present. Andrew Garberino, Dan Mouser, and Jay Obernulty.

Like that guy who voted not to release the Epstein Files. That one dude. One dude. That one dude. What was the name? He was what from Louisiana? It's like, dude, read the room. Like, realize you're going to be the only one you're going to stand out.

That's like going to like a skating ring when you're a kid for a birthday party and you go in and there's no one there. And you're like, this is the right place. It was Clay Higgins, right? Clay Higgins, yeah. Clay Higgins. Publicing from Louisiana. Voted not to release the Epstein Files. I don't know.

That guy better have just the, there better be zero skeletons in any closet for that guy. His argument was that it would, it could. harm innocent people. You sure it wasn't that his constituents would be upset if they released the documents with their names in it? I mean, possibly. Yeah, and the victims have come out and said that they don't even mind if their names are redacted or not.

There were victims that this is something that I continue to mention. There were victims two months ago or so, three months ago, that said, if they don't release the Fstein files, we're going to get together our own list because the victims, blah, blah, blah. Where's this list? What has prevented them from? doing that? So on that, the question I always have is, like, when Marjorie Taylor Green has all the victims together and they're doing a, you know, talk to the camera thing, you got all the news

organizations there, what stops the victims from just naming names? Like, they're there on camera, the news isn't going to, like, it's live? Is it literally, they're afraid of getting sued by very, very powerful people? The only thing I can think of is they fear for their lives. Yeah. I mean, I mean, I don't know how you can get sued if you're making an accurate accusation at a child predator. But if there's no proof, like, unless it's the documents are the only place where proof exists and there's no other proof, then you're making a claim that can't be... This is going to set a lot of people on fire, but it's possible that they don't actually have anything to produce. You know, they're every, like, it seems to me that a lot of people are like talking about, oh, you know, this person's on the list, that person's on the list. et cetera, et cetera.

And it's, it seems like this is more of a threat and a way to basically slime people than any kind of actual legitimate, legitimate substantial threat. Even Elon Musk said, oh, Donald Trump is on the, on the Epstein list. They're hanging out again. What does on the list mean? Sure. Does it mean that you have, that was the, a list of people that he was blackmailing? Or is it just the list of people that have been to the island?

Well, the term has become amorphous now, right? Like, you don't even know what it means. Absolutely. Because one of the things that the media was doing for the last several months before they got onto the current train of thought that they have was anytime documents would come out and somebody's like, I was there. Donald Trump was not there.

Like Trump was mentioned in documents, which is just them saying that he wasn't there, which is just a way to frame it and make it a bigger case than it is. That's what it seems like to me. Because nothing has actually materialized that you can, that's actionable in any way, it seems like it's just people making threats and using the phrase Epstein list to slime people and to either take heat off themselves or to make accusations that they don't ever have any intent of producing anything substantial there.

It also proves how petty Elon Musk is that he made that tweet that long ago and then now they're back hanging out again. Maybe. You know, I mean, I think Elon was emotional during that tweet. Petty. Petty and emotional. That was nuts. I would never describe Elon

as petty and emotional. No, buying Twitter wasn't petty? I'm kidding. Elon is if you took a guy, well, if you took a computer nerd, and just cranked all of his emotions to 11, I feel like you get Elon.

You know? Him fighting with Billy Elish about how he should spend his money. I was like, you don't have to respond, bro. You know, I got to be honest. I was, you know what I think, I think it is. You know what I think it is, it's happening. I think we were under the boot of a deep state for a long time

and that the views on social media, on the ratings on TV were all fake. I think that Mockingbird probably went crazier than people realized and media was much more controlled than people realized and the internet kind of broke the machine. Because I've been, you know, right now there's a big, behind the scenes, for those that are curious in media right now, one of the big concerns is ad rates are way down

when they should not be, and viewer count is way down when it should not be. And I'm not just talking about politics. People have been highlighting that there are certain sporting events and hobby YouTube where it's like the views seem low right now, which is odd, considering it's getting cold. So, and we're near the end of the year, which means ad rates should be going up and views should be going up, but we're seeing many people reporting views are down, and ad rates are going down along with it. I can't speak to viewers for the most part. They've dipped a little bit. I think for the most part, we've been stable, but ad rates for sure have gone down. I've been talking with a lot of people in media about this phenomenon. What do they think is happening? I think it's

largely due to economics and potentially lack of children coming in as older people go out. But part of the conversation is that when we're tracking metrics from other big tech platforms, the one thing we've all started to notice is that they all seem fake. It all seems fake. The numbers don't are not behaving like humans. We've come to a point right now. I mean, Trump nukes USAID, the slush fund, this flush fund money starts disappearing. And all of a sudden, we see a divergence in the behavior and revenue streams and audience totals as if something was artificially creating a track. Something was artificially making sure certain channels got views and money and certain channels didn't get views and money. And now, The data seems to be acting strangely. And for the season, going down, I wonder if, actually, let me put it like this. You may think I am paranoid, but I will remind you of when Elon Musk announced he put a bid in for Twitter before it was X. Liberals started bleeding followers.

Their follow accounts were collapsing and conservatives were skyrocketing. And everyone said, how is that possible? Liberals said, oh, it's because everyone's fleeing to other platforms. That wasn't true. So what was happening that made conservatives gain followers? And the response was, oh, people are coming back. No, that doesn't make sense. Millions of people just saw a news report Elon Dubai, Twitter, maybe.

And they said, guess I'll sign up? I don't think so. No. People following liberals on social media on X or on Twitter at the time said, what Elon might buy the platform? Better leave right now. The theory was that the U.S. government had some kind of they had a backdoor into these platforms that we know is true.

And as soon as it became, as soon as it looked like Elon was getting Twitter, they said, quick burn the evidence, flicked the switch on whatever weird algorithm was propping up these fake numbers, switching everything, collapsing their fake system. My point ultimately is with Elon,

the reason I bring this up is, Elon's a weird dude. He does not behave, CEOs behave. And I think it's because for the most part, they've always been fake. Everybody knows, you know, Deepwater Horizon happens and then you get the BP guy, we're sorry. You know, I can tell you this, I'd be willing to actually place a wager on the next time there's some kind of disaster. I'll be like, oh, bro, I will write verbatim the speech from the CEO based on the disaster.

We know exactly what they're going to say. It's fake, it's plastic, nobody believes them. Things are changing now. Elon Musk is behaving in very strange ways. It seems like not just with Elon, but with M. many other facets of our social infrastructure, we're starting to see real people, real numbers, and the machine state that was kind of smoothing things over to create appearances,

is losing control and kind of disappearing. I mean, Elon is an example of somebody who's made his brand every bit as much about him as the companies that he runs, but that's not necessarily how the rest of the Fortune 500. I read so much about, like, David Zazlav and David Ellison and all of these CEOs in the entertainment companies, and they all talk the exact same. We're not talking in absolutes.

I'm not claiming that the old world ceased to exist. I'm saying that the machine state that smoothed things over is waning, and we are starting to see emergence of real people, real numbers, real metrics, and it defies our expectation because we have lived in a bot dead internet forever. That is, my theory is, and maybe I'll speak a little bit more on the uncensored portion of the show to avoid potential litigation. But I'll keep it somewhat vague that there are prominence, social media platforms, whose numbers don't make sense and don't track onto other platforms, implying they are using bots.

And as we've already pointed out numerous times in the past, it is a fact that prominent social media sites use bots to prop up viewer count. I'll give you an example. It is known that the CEO, the co-founders of Reddit, when they first launched the site, created fake accounts, sock puppets, to interact with users so they would believe there was real engagement on the platform. They faked it. This has been the case for many big social media platforms. I think what's happening now with, you know, people have complained like, why are my views down? When Elon bought Twitter, they were like, my views are down now. And it's like maybe because they were never there in the first place.

And what was happening was there was a machine state that said, if someone says something that's anti-Trump, pump it up. If someone says something that is pro-Trump, drop it down. Elon comes in and they're like, quick run for the hills. and now people are going, why are my numbers different? Why are my subscriber, you know, growth different? And yeah, and there's no question. The big tech companies, you know, Twitter before Elon and Zuckerberg, they, YouTube, they've all had a political agenda that's just so obvious. You look at the Twitter files, the Biden administration, instructing them on who and what to censor.

It would make sense. Not only are they like censoring conservatives. but doing the fake optics to make their side who supports their agenda, fake optics, make them look, you know, more popular, which then helps them gain more popularity. So to me, what you're saying theoretically, it makes sense. Yeah, I remember prior to Elon Musk, you know, getting Twitter and switching it to X, I remember I would log in in my feed with just every single profile picture was just a politician with their little tie-on. and it was a statement and it had 100,000 likes and no engagement. And I remember everything I was seeing, I would have to pretty much mute things like that because it would be my entire feed, my entire feed.

And then you have this, like Tim said, this machine kind of collapsing. And then at the same time, in my opinion, you have people trying to gravitate, especially after COVID, like what me and Phil were talking about, after seeing all the fakedness and all of what I call corpus speak, you see people gravitating towards real people that have real emotions and real reactions. react, you know, real reactions to things and they don't try to hide these things. And yeah, it can be a little course sometimes, but people won't realness. They're tired of hearing the, oh, we're sorry you feel that way. I had a, I've been in a spat with YouTube the past two days

because they started charging you. They started charging me every day. Is it actually like, they're charging you? Like you will get like less money? Yeah. So, you know, my revenue was supposed to be like a couple thousand dollars and I checked it and it was pretty much zero. And I was like, what's going on and it was just i've never had a negative day in seven years on youtube and it was like negative 200 negative negative negative negative and i was like oh my gosh this is at the end of my life it's over and uh you know youtube keeps telling me to talk to you know the the customer support and they're just like we they don't even know what i'm talking they don't even know what i'm referring to right and um you know youtube finally emailed me after it was trending all day today but uh yeah it's

pretty devastating watching your your revenue go down and that's the thing is people are tired watch it go down. It's another thing to be like, you owe us money. Yeah, it was like negative. It was like negative. Your ad sense is terrible. Cody, you are like, you're costing us money. My average view duration is negative 30 seconds.

You could make the argument that if what you were looking at before was bots and, you know, a corporate structure that was designed to make everything look more popular than it was, then you had a bunch of neoliberal company owners or even leftist company owners. owners who then once that was kind of pulled apart when Elon bought X and they had to pivot, now they're all like, you know what? We're kind of free. I'm kind of a free speech advocate myself over here at Meta. And Mark Zuckerberg starts doing Brazilian jiu-jitsu and pretending like he's human.

Like we're at a point now where they're trying to actually manufacture authenticity where it's not even really there. That's a great point. And be real, the conservatives fell forth. They're like, I like that Mark Zuckerberg guy now because he kind of is acting like a real person. He is the most spineless person I've ever met. I would have more respect for the guy. If once Trump took office, he still stood for censorship.

Like, yeah, this is, like, I don't agree with that. But if he authentically believed it, I can respect a guy who stands for what he believes in. But as soon as Trump takes office, he's just like so spineless. Like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we should definitely, you know, have free speech and open this up. Like you believe in nothing, you... That was his kind of stance, like, back in the day, right? He thought he would come across as a libertarian kind of minded dude. And before...

Supposedly Jack Dorsey as well. Yeah. And actually, Jack Dorsey, like, when he sold Blue Sky, because Blue Sky became what it is, and he's like, I can't. He's just like, I can't with these people. So he brought Vine back instead? Yeah. And not to say that I think that he's particularly principled or anything like that.

But I do think that the pressure from the government, like when the government says, hey, we need you to do this, even just making the remark, we want you to do this, that everybody feels like it's a threat. If you get a letter from the IRS, everybody's like, oh, you know. Sure would be a shame if you got audited. Yeah, just, I mean, it's like if the eye of Soron looks at you, you start sweating. And that's really kind of what the government is. So not that I'm saying that, not that I'm, you know, making excuses or whatever, but it is understandable to be Mark Zuckerberg with one of the biggest companies in the world. And the federal government's like, hey, maybe you should help us out. And obviously he got wrapped up and allowed them to do things that he shouldn't have.

And it is good that he said, okay, you know, wait a minute, maybe we shouldn't do this. He should have stood on principle earlier and not let them do that. but I do understand how, you know, the government saying, hey, we want you to do this, what that kind of does to basically anybody. I would probably cave. We got big news from Donald Trump. He has signed the Epstein release. It's happening.

There's going to be nothing in it. We'll be bored and I'm bored now. But Donald Trump has truth. He truth a lot. It's long. Jeffrey Epstein, who was charged by the Trump Justice Department in 2019, not the Democrats, was a lifelong Democrat donated thousands of dollars to Democrat politicians and was deeply associated with many well-known Democrat figures,

such as Bill Clinton, who traveled on his plane 26 times, Larry Summers, who just resigned from many boards, including Harvard, sleaze-bagged political activist Reid Hoffman, minority leader, Hakeem Jeffries, who asked Epstein to donate to his campaign after Epstein was charged, Democrat congresswoman, Stacey Plaskett, and many more. Perhaps truth about these Democrats and their associates with Jeffer's, Jeffrey Epstein will soon be revealed because I have just signed the bill to release the Epstein files.

As everyone knows, I asked Speaker of the House Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune to pass the bill in the House and the Senate respectively because of this request, the votes were almost unanimous in favor of the passage. At my direction, the Department of Justice has already turned over close to 50,000 pages of documents to Congress. Do not forget the Biden administration did not turn over a single file or page related to Democrat Epstein, nor did they ever speak about him. Democrats have used the Epstein issue, which affects them far more than the Republican Party in order to try and distract from our amazing victories, including the great big, beautiful tax cut bill, strong borders, no men in women's sports or transgender for everyone, ending the EI, stopping Biden's record setting inflation, lowering prices, biggest tax and regulation cuts in history, ending eight wars, rebuilding our military, knocking out Iran's nuclear capability,

getting trillions of dollars invested in the USA, creating the hottest country, anywhere in the world, and even delivering a huge defeat to the Democrats on the recent shutdown disaster. For years, our great nation has had to endure Russia, Russia, Russia, Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, impeachment hoax number one, impeachment hoax number two, and many other Democrat-created witch-hunts and scams, all of which have been so terrible and divisive for our country, and have been done to confuse, deflect, and distract from the great job that Republicans and the Trump administration are doing. This latest hoax will backfire on the Democrats, just as all of the rest of the Republicans.

have. Thank you again for your attention to this matter. Make America great again. Nobody can glaze Donald Trump like Donald Trump. Like nobody. Like he can go ahead and glaze other people and he's great at it. Like when someone's nice to him, he'll glaze you. But like, man, when he's talking about himself, look out. He is unstoppable. Look at how great I am. In my mind, he does that with voice to text. He's so old. Well, he does it with voice to actual person typing. He tells someone that he doesn't type. Donald Trump

is a hunting pecker. Yeah. I can't imagine he's not using his, he's doing this. I wouldn't be surprised if he's never had his fingers on a keyboard in his life. You know, just always has a secretary assistant. I do think that he does a little bit of this. Like Coveffi was this. You know, the thumbs.

But otherwise, he's a hunting pecker and he's telling someone else what to tweet. So I think, you know, it really surprised me a couple months ago when Trump came out hard trying to protect the Epstein files. I mean, he got really vicious, really attacking his followers as well. I'm surprised and pleasantly surprised that he's flipped in supporting this. I don't think it's a good look that he flipped. I think it's a much better look than if he, like, kept his heels dug in until like, hey, there's nothing to see with Epstein.

But to his credit, he flipped when he should have. I don't think you ever should have had his heels dug in. But I am surprised by all this. Well, it could have been 40 chess. So, like, the first thing you could do, Trump can say anything on earth. He could say, you know, it's really good for you to jump off a cliff,

and these crazy activists are going to go immediately jump off cliff face first to prove, you know, everybody was taking, you know, the Tylenol or whatever, like down to a whole bottle. It's going to be great. And I'm like, oh, why did you die? Well, that's why? Because they were like, I was trying. Why did you die?

You died to own the chuds. You mean the other way. You mean if Trump came out and said, don't jump off a cliff, they'd be like, oh, yeah? Yeah, they'd be like, watch. You know what I'm saying? Like, they'd be all over. And that's what I'm saying is maybe when this started rolling, he's like, actually, who cares about the Epstein files?

Then all the DMs immediately were like, release. You're saying he pulled the classic Babylon B. In genius move, Trump comes out in support of impeachment forcing Democrats to oppose. Yeah. He's basically like, he wants the Epstein files release because it'll make Democrats look bad. So he goes, no, wait, don't. And they're like, oh, now we're going to do it. And then he's like, okay.

He should just say he hates himself on radio. Yeah. But I'm like, I love him. Yeah. I love him now. He might have got the idea for that 40 chess-epstein thing from the Babylon B. Well, if it's fourth dimensional, it implies there's some passage through time. So maybe his future self or Baron from the future came back and gave him this information.

You guys are familiar with the Ingersoll. What was it? Ingersoll Lockwood. Was that the name of the books? Baron Trump, you guys don't know about this stuff? What are you doing, bro? Oh, yeah. I've heard a little bit about that.

Yeah. That there are like books from the late 1800s about Baron Trump. Yes. Becoming, just for real. It's nuts. That like anarchists and socialists march from the Financial District of Manhattan towards Fifth Avenue to Castle Trump. Like, somebody was just like doing ancient 1800s DMT and saw the future or something. Yeah, let me pull this one up.

Actually, let's ask our friend, Graak. Graw. Tell me. Is Aaron Trump a time travel? Baron Trump time travel books. You can slip the reality sometimes. What goes along with the Trump being a time traveler? Donald Trump is a time traveler?

Obscure children's novels written by American author Ingersoll Lockwood. I didn't believe this was real when this story broke. I was like, this is not possible. The stories feature a young protagonist named Baron Trump. Yeah, full name Wilhelm Heinrich Sebastian von Trump. Who embarks on fantastical journeys that involve elements of time displacement, underground worlds and global exploration. Well, the books themselves are whimsical Victorian-era fiction, similar to the style of Gulliver's travels.

They've exploded in popularity due to the eerie parallels. So what is it? There's one where it's called like the last president, I think it's called, right? Trump as a time traveler. Theorist link the books to Nikola Tesla's papers allegedly reviewed by Trump's uncle, John G. Trump and MIG engineer, who supposedly hid time displacement tech from Tesla's estate in 1943. Trump has said to have used it to go back and influence history. When were they written?

What if the Mandela effect is just Trump going back in time and stepping on bugs? When were they written? 18 something. The funnier version of this is that Donald Trump read them and named his son Barron after this just because he read the books. That could be. No, he named a son Barron, goes back in time, and then writes about Barron. I have never seen any evidence that disproves that. Could happen.

Good. I want to see what the government says. If they're like, no, that's, I'd be like, okay, yeah, it is real. Bro, with the power of AI, we can make this very easily. But maybe this is something Seamus could put together for Freedom Tunes where it's like Trump goes back in time. And then he's like at the Fruit of the Loom factory. And there's a guy like, I got an idea for a logo.

And then Trump trips and falls and he crashes. And then the cornucopia just like gets splattered with paint. And then in the future just disappears from every label and every tag. Like the videos, the guys who make fake Fruit of the Loom shirts with the cornucopia. and they put him at the restores so that people Yeah, I know, it's like Trump goes back and he sees this book and they're like, yeah,

we have this book, it's called the Berenstein Bears. He's like, no, I don't like it. There's a book called The Last President, written by Ingersoll Lockwood. It is not the Baron Trump novels. The Baron Trump one was fancy, you know, adventures, fanciful adventures. The last president was a short novella

about a populist candidate from New York who wins the presidential election, shocking the establishment. He lives on Fifth Avenue in a gilded man. his victory triggers massive riots and protests in New York with mobs marching down Fifth Avenue shutting down with the rich. The country slides into chaos. Congress has deadlocked. States threatens succession. The treasury is almost bankrupt and there are fears the republic itself will end. This is prophecy. I'm sorry. Trump went back in time and he's like, let me tell you about my son Barron. He was magical. He went underground and met nooms. None of that's true because Trump said prices are down and everything's hunky dory now.

the incoming president is sworn out on March 4th, the old inauguration date. The book ends on a dark, ambiguous note with the fate of the nation hanging in the balance. Many readers interpret the title, literally, he is the last president of the United States as we know it. What if, like, the real reason Democrats keep saying Trump wants to be a dictator is not because of anything Trump said, but because they think this book is prophecy. And they're like, Trump's going to be the last president. He's not going to give up. That's interesting. That's a common thing, though, every single time there's, you know, the Republican candidate.

and there's the Dem candidate. The Dem candidate will always claim that if the Republican candidate wins, it will be the last presidential election ever. They've been saying this since I was a kid. You know, so it goes in that way. They will never relinquish power except for when they do. I asked, is Steve Bannon baron from the future? And Grok says, no, Steve Bannon is not barren from the future,

but the internet wishes he was. There's like a meme where people are saying that, like, the Trumps have time travel technology, then Barron comes back. I guess it only made sense. The meme made sense before Barron was eight feet tall. Yeah. I'm on board with the whole thing. I love this. This explains reality so well. I like the idea that the Mandela effect is just Donald Trump going back in time and stepping on bugs. Just accidentally. It's like butterfly effect. He swats a fly and this changes the course. Like Nelson Mandela survives. It's a good meme. Well, it's a Simpsons episode. So as most jokes are

at this point. It's something we can do about it. They've written everything. They've been on for so long, you know? You know it would be funny. It's like, Nostradamus was really dumb, but people think he's prophetic. And no matter what he wrote, people always find a reason why it applies to now and not then. It would be funny if, you know, in like 100 years, people think The Simpsons is prophecy because how much it got right. And they just like scrub through episodes looking for hidden messages of the future. I mean, and with the Simpsons, there's also odds, even if it's not prophetic in some mystical way, they've got, it's got to be over a thousand episodes at this point. show's been on for well over 30 years. It's way more than that.

Way more. Yeah, I think it's like two or three thousand. So it's a lot. A couple thousand episodes. You, there, there is so much content there. They will at least accidentally look like they're prophesizing quite a bit. Oh wait. Oh, wait. No, it's 799. That's it. Yeah. When it starts? So their hit rate is really good then. That's not that much at all. Started in 1989. 37 seasons. Wow. That's, yeah, that's, that's a lot less than I thought. I thought it was a couple thousand already. I thought they had like a... If it was going to be anything, it would be soap operas that would be hitting it out of the park because there's been like 10,000

of every one of those episodes. Yeah. Every single day. Every day. Yeah. We should actually look into it. Maybe they have probably. At least somebody has ended up like sleeping with their wife's twin sister by accident not realizing who it was. By accident.

Oops. So what do you think? Why do you think it is that he spent so much time denying this? He's talking about all of the they've had. He's talk about the damage that all of this conversation is made. Because he has time travel technology. He knows what to

say to influence future events. He comes from a future where he denied it the whole time but it didn't work. So he came back and said, uh, I accept this. This is the sci-fi that hurts my brain. I don't like this type of sci-fi. So all time travel sci-fi can end up hurting your brain. When Epstein went to

prison, I guess for the second and final time, Trump was in office then. Is that correct? it would have been 2019 the end of 2019 so Trump was in office you know something I was thinking about earlier today like his FBI his DOJ

and granted they were kind of like enemies of him but it was still under the Trump administration if they were doing some cover-ups maybe Epstein was an informant for the CIA working for them Assad whatever it is that's a really bad look and if that happened under Trump's

administration in his first term, that could be a reason why he was wanting to cover up the Epstein files. Because he was like an informant for the CIA? Yeah. And even if it's not under Trump's direction, it's like, well, the CIA is under your administration. You tell that to the government. We're like, bro, we hired Nazi scientists.

Are you kidding me? We'll work with anybody here. Like, if it means we can win, we'll work with the worst of the worst. Yeah, I mean, that's kind of the, like, Realpolitik, right? Like if it gives you an advantage, it doesn't matter what they do. And that is standard operating procedure for the United States. We've, you know, funded some of the worst terrorists in modern history and worked with some of the most, you know, terrible people.

Like the president of Syria was just in the White House and there are pictures of him holding people's heads up from when he was a freedom fighter, actually a member of Al-Qaeda. So there's no question that the way it works is you do some shows. shady stuff, but they also like to conceal that. They don't like that publicize. There's that the meme, it's like, isn't it funny how every 20 years something horrible comes out about the CIA and they say, lo, we did that. Never mind. And then people just forget and go back to pretending like stuff like that never happened. Yeah, I live in Huntsville, Alabama, and you can just drive down. And every building has a name on it. And it's just a Nazi. Just a what? Like an old Nazi scientist. Oh, Jesus.

You know what I'm saying? That's right. Because Huntsville has. quite the NASA presence. Yeah, 100%. I thought all the Nazis went to Argentina. We got a few of them now. To my surprise. By the way, Cody, you have not publicly condemned the Nazis during this conversation.

That's pretty shady, though. That proves it. There's very good people on both sides. There's very fine people on both sides, right? Careful, man, and media matters is going to be like, and Cody Dennison was like... They're going to be like that anyways. Let's jump to this next door.

We got this from Axios, Democratic Rep. Sheila. Sure, Phyllis McCormick indicted. Can you believe it? A Democrat indicted? You know what, guys, I can't do it. Let's talk about this. Winter storm warning is 24 inches of snow to hit. This is infinitely more interesting to me at this point. I got to be honest that a winter storm is coming. Maybe I'll go skiing. But no, the real story is, yes, a Democrat funneled $5 million stolen from FEMA, according to the indictment to her company and to her congressional campaign. heaven's me, a Democrat cheated and stole money from the government to get elected. One of the big theories that many individuals have had is that USAID funds were being shuffled

around through what they would do is they would hire some lawyers or some nonprofits. Then those nonprofits would make donations to foundations, which would fund of the money to a pack, which would then work to get a Soros DA or Democrat elected. I am not surprised to find out that the DOJ has now indicted someone who stole allegedly $5 million FEMA payments to fund her congressional campaign. Look, the closing of USAID is one of the worst things to happen to the Democrat Party in probably modern history. And I think that this kind of stuff is strong circumstantial evidence at least. Yeah, well, you had things like professional hula hoop dancing in Zimbabwe, $10 million.

And I'm like, you, that wasn't going to the Zimbabwe guy. That was going to somebody else to fund their campaign. To be honest, it kind of seems like I. should go into politics because that's a lot of money. That is a lot of money. And what if I, you know, maybe you won't get caught. You know the weirdest thing to me about all these politicians is just, it's not good money.

I mean, technically, if you're like, for half of members of Congress, you don't make that much money. You're going to, like, you're not going to make a lot. If you're famous like AOC, soon as she leaves, actually, I think people are already assuming she's probably well off now because she's got the opportunity to speaking events or whatever it is. I don't know if she actually does that stuff. but you look at the Pelosi's and it's like, come on.

A couple hundred million dollars. Yeah, come on. But for the most part, I see a lot of members of Congress and I'm like, why fight so hard and work so incessantly for nothing? And I got to just, sorry, just to clarify, there are members of Congress, I think, actually believe in what they're doing. But a lot of these guys just seem to be cutting back room deals for nothing. Yeah, and I agree.

But also I think for some of them, power is the currency. that they're after. And also, maybe all of them have the opportunity to get wealthy, whether it's through above board means or below board means. But also some of them, while they might be power hungry, they're also just stupid people. Like a lot of these folks, they haven't run successful businesses. Some of them are lifelong politicians, which kind of says like, well, all right, you don't know how to do much else, but you're after power.

That's what AOC's going to be. Like Bernie? You know, she was a bartender beforehand. I don't think that she had any other serious employment. And she, you know, got into her seat because there was a runoff election or whatever or something. I think the, I'm not sure that the specifics, but she's not going to do anything else. She's going to be in politics for the rest of her life. That means they're not the stupid people.

That means that they're like, I'm dumb and I'm making a ton of money. It's like the thing. It's like who's the smartest teacher at a school? Is it the, and everybody says the science teacher? No, it's the gym teacher. Because they get to make all the same money that the science teacher does. and they just get to play in the gym all day. Yeah.

They're very smart at making money despite being stupid. Yeah. I just think it's insane that it's 2025 and probably over 80% of people or Americans agree that there needs to be some form of term limits and it still hasn't existed. So I'm not one of the people that agrees about term limits because I think that when you're dealing with Congress who's, you know, every two years, like everyone hates Congress, but everyone hates Congress except for their own specific Congress person. The thing that they hate about Congress is there's 435 members and they find it difficult to agree and it's hard to get things passed.

And really when they say, oh, I hate Congress because they don't get anything done, for the most part, they're saying, I hate the fact that the things that I want don't get done because if there were a bunch of stuff getting done that they hated, you know, they'd be like, oh, I hate Congress because they're doing all these things that negatively affect my life. The problem is the federal government is not supposed to be. supposed to be doing probably 90% of the things that it does, you know? And a lot of a lot of the power that Congress has had, they've abdicated, right?

Like the power to declare war or when it comes to, you know, any kind of international conflict. Congress has the power to do that stuff. But they don't want to because if they vote on something, then they have to face their constituents. So that's why they give the power to the president and said, oh, you know, let's go ahead and give the president an authorization to use military force. and the president, multiple presidents have now used that AUMF to justify whatever they want to do internationally whenever it comes to the military. So it's, I do understand why people would say, well, term limits would fix this, but I don't think term limits would actually fix anything. I don't think that it would make people happy because I don't think that people have a clear understanding of what it is that they're unhappy about with Congress.

I think term limits, I agree. It wouldn't fix everything. I don't think it would fix most things. but one thing it would fix is when you have a puppet up there like Feinstein or Mitch McConnell where people are literally playing weekend at Bernies, I think there's a little deception there where yes, they are the ones elected to represent their constituents, but also they don't seem to be running the show at their office. Here's another one where I'm going to take a ton of heat from the chat for saying this. As much as people want to go ahead and dog on Mitch McConnell, Mitch McConnell is the reason why the conservatives have been able to,

why President Trump and conservatives have had had the ability to, uh, appoint so many judges to the Supreme Court. And the Supreme Court has done a lot of things that conservatives. But just one. He, he blocked Garland. He blocked Garland, but. So he got them the six three instead of the five four.

Yeah, the six three, which, and I don't know what the specific, uh, what the things were that, that, that happened when, when it was just six three. But Mitch McConnell really did know, the House very well, and he's a significant reason why a lot of the policies that conservatives like were passed. Trump should have put Matt Gates on the Supreme Court.

Yeah, well, Phil, you clearly work for Israel. I hate you. How dare you say anything kind about Mitch McConnell? What is wrong with here? $7,000 for that card. Yeah, right? It's close enough to Israel. I heard his cash app go off.

Yeah. It's Apple Pay, actually. There it is. Apple Pay chime. But no. I mean, seriously, like, I get it's popular to dog out Congress and stuff, but a lot of people, they don't understand the way that the government works. This is part of the reason why people are so upset with Trump a lot of things, right? They're like, Trump hasn't done enough.

Trump hasn't done this. Trump hasn't done that. And it's because the president doesn't have unilateral authority to just walk in and say, do this, do this, do this. He's done a lot of the things that he has the power to do, he's done. And he set in motion to get a lot of the things that he made promises about. He set things in motion. Now, granted, he hasn't just wrapped up a bunch of people and thrown him in jail. But that's not a realistic, you know, not a realistic expectation.

And again, I know that I'm not even looking at the chat right now. I know I'm getting excoriated for saying this. But no one likes to know how the sausage is made. No one spends time looking into, you know, why does Congress do the things they do? To be fair, back in the day when Butchers' made real sausage, everybody was interested. But now that saying largely refers to when they throw the cow into a giant grinder that turns it into a pink paste and then squeeze it into a tube of intestines, nobody wants to watch that happen. My point is, if you go way back in the day,

people were very interested in the honest functioning of our government electoral representatives and now it's all crooked, corrupt, and busted, and everybody hates it. I also think that a part of it is like right now with the economy being the way that it is, that people might be more forgiving of him not putting people in prison, you know, despite the fact that we know that that's not a realistic expectation for a lot of it. They might be focusing on that less if they felt like the economy was doing

better, which, you know, he keeps saying is doing great and, you know, Wall Street is doing great. And a lot of people are like, yeah, that's not true, bro. Oh, wait, someone, this came up the other day. This is Thomas Massey's first bill to be signed by Trump? Yes. Is that what it is? Yeah. He doesn't know yet. He finds out. He says,

never mind. Yeah. Like, they can keep calling me a pedophile. I don't care. he gets nothing. I mean, Trump's been insulting Massey in non-political ways, you know? Bad look. And Thomas Massey, is he maybe the most beloved member of Congress? I don't know.

The core right doesn't like him. The left doesn't care much for him at all. But the libertarians love him. He, I mean, anytime I, not anytime, most of the time when I hear him talk, it's just it's what I wish every politician would say he's just real and I love Trump

and I don't love Trump insulting Massey and making him an enemy I just don't like it Massey has chickens how bad can he be that's it's right I like that that's it that's the tweet and he's got a he went and got a Tesla battery from a car

from a Model S and he powers his home with it he's got so so the actual one I was going to make is a side from the joke that just having chickens is good enough. But no, he has the Clux Capacitor, which is he built this chicken coop that slowly moves. And so the chickens always have fresh grass. Oh, that's cool. Wild.

This guy's crazy. That's cool. Yeah. Phil, do you want to offer a retraction on your freaking McConnell statement yet? No, no. You are sticking, okay. I don't. That's who you are.

Generally, the idea is that Massey won't vote for anything that expands the debt in this country, right? And he's right. It's wild that we are in a... We live in a house where mom and dad keep racking up down on the credit card and arguing over how much more they can spend on a credit card. And we're just sitting here being like, sooner or later the bill comes due. And we've been seeing it with inflation. Right now the median income I looked it up is 83,000.

That doesn't mean people have more money to buy stuff with. It means everything's more expensive. The median income in America? Yeah. Trump's strategy. and he said this before is to be under leveraged, meaning he doesn't care if inflation is high so long as individual income is higher.

So that means the prices of houses are going to reach a million bucks, but don't worry, Gen Z, hopefully of a million dollar salary at some point. Then you can buy a house in a year or two. That's the game plan. We're all going to be Scrooge McDuck with Zimbabwe dollars, but don't worry,

we'll have enough of them to buy things. When I first moved down here, an ounce of gold was like $2,2,200. And gold is now $4,000. And that was three years ago. $4,084. What's silver at? $51. I got this thing of silver right here.

Wow. Gold is a really good indicator because it's basically a store of value. You know, if you buy gold, the price of gold compared to the dollar generally stays the same. But, you know, the government isn't going to stop printing. money and they're probably going to end up printing a lot of money to pay the debt and the dollar is just going to you know crash and hopefully it doesn't crash too hard yeah you know and they're going to pass the buck off on what of the next administration is in office which is I mean look gen Z is really pissed off at the boomers and gen alpha is going to be even more under duress because of it it's not looking good because the boomers have really been terrible stewards of the economy and terrible stewards of the United States. and they're leaving the younger generation, generations, which are significantly smaller than the boomers, like they're leaving them with the responsibility of paying for it.

And it's a horrible, horrible situation. Because they want to go on a cruise and own two homes. Yeah, they want to own multiple homes and they want to, you know, have a, have an Airbnb, you know. I have this stack of silver. Look how beautiful. This is a legit silver. And, man, when I bought this stuff, I think it was like $18.

That wasn't that long ago. It's 50. This is $50. This is wow, this is a thousand bucks right. This is crazy. This whole thing was $200 when I bought it. That is not saying, wow, I made a great investment.

My silver has gone up in value. It's saying everything's collapsing around it. Well, actually, I take that back. To be fair, silver is getting more expensive because data centers and electric cars consume a lot of silver and they're buying it up. Yeah, but the problems that that we're facing,

they're all based on, they're all based on economics. Even the, the, the influx of, of immigrants. It's because of the economics of it. But that's my,

my point when he's talking about this stuff and he's saying, like the economy is doing great. Oh, yeah. It's like, everybody knows that that's not true. And it's,

like, it would be more, it would be better to just be like, we're working on it. Yep. We're going to, it's going to be difficult. It's not going to be easy, but we're going to get through it as a country.

But instead, pretending like everything is okay. That's what Biden did. Yeah. And that's part of the one of the reasons why Biden lost is because they were telling Americans that were suffering. They were like, no, it's actually okay. The economy is doing fine, et cetera. And Americans are just like, no, like I'm the one that goes and buys my groceries and it's not okay.

Like my paycheck doesn't go as far as it used to. It's not okay. It is never a good idea to tell the American people that they are not suffering when they're suffering. Let's talk to this next story, which is. going viral on X today again. Slow Newsday. Nick Fuentes says the GOP must be destroyed and replaced by a left-right populist

coalition. The left has to give up immigration. The right has to give up on the free market. Let's play a little bit of what he has to say. If we can unmute us. It's our way or the highway. You've enjoyed the power and privileges for long enough. Where's ours? Where's our end of the bargain?

So I love it. It's time to undermine the GOP. I said it in 2020. The GOP must be destroyed. Has to be utter. And yeah, they're going to say he, he's a Democrat. He wants the GOP to be destroyed. The GOP serves the interests.

The GOP as presently constructed. That's what he means. Right. Serves the interests. The special interests, the donors. Everybody knows that. It serves Silicon Valley and Little Tech. Pallenteer.

Tesla, SpaceX, and Dural. Oracle. It serves Wall Street. That's why Ken Griffin gave them millions of dollars. What say you folks should the left and the right join forces? A populist coalition? Well, if they give up on immigration, they give up on a free market, we get to bask in the glory of gender ideology.

Yeah. What does he mean by the right has to give up on the free market? market. Like, is he talking about socialism, then? Yes. He is talking about social programs for Americans, and likely from his perspective, white Americans. So he's just a leftist. It's the policy of national socialism. I'm not on board with that. See, this is the issue I take with this, like, woke right stuff, is that if the argument

is Nick Fuentes uses critical race theory and. socialist policies and financing, blah, blah, blah. I'm like, well, that's just the woke left. That's not, there's, what's the difference? What's the difference? Well, the difference is, well, there is no... Is wearing a suit? Yeah. It's, it's that he's a nationalist as opposed to an internationalist,

which is the big difference between the communists and the national socialists, the Nazis. They're all just socialists. They were all socialists. They all, like, it's just that it was socialism for, in the Nazis policy, it was socialism for the German people. There were all kinds of policies that were instituted that were supposed to help the German people, only the German people.

The communists want to see those policies spread throughout the world, and they don't want to see nations. They don't believe that there should be any countries. That's part of why they have the open borders thing, because there should not be any borders. Everybody is people. People are all the same, and so they should all get the same benefits from a one-world government. This is not a woke right.

this is the left. This is the Bernie argument. The only difference I see is that for sure if you go back and look at Nick's old comments about identity and things like that, people are like, that's woke right. And I'm like, right wing doesn't mean white. So the question I have for these people say woke right is, okay, does right wing mean white? No, it doesn't. Okay, well, then Nick Fund is just literally a leftist. If his argument is command economies and a coalition with leftists, as long as they abandoned other issues like on immigration. Bernie Sanders was critical on open border policies. But you're talking about economic left, like leftism in his identity comments, will exclude him from any sort of leftist coalition because they're heavily into identity.

It's the same. So the first thing, the first thing I'll say about the, as we've talked about woke right stuff quite a bit, the principal issue with the argument about the phrase woke right is James Lindsay. He's taking the conversation. I think it was an intentional. The man is famous for infiltrating groups he does not like, tricking them into publishing stupid arguments so they look like morons. He's basically doing this right now. And I would argue it's because he's a fan of Nick Fuentes and he's anti-Israel. And it's funny because I don't understand when people laugh.

They laugh when I tell him that. And I just pause and I say, okay, let's try this again. What is James Lindsay famous for? Oh, he infiltrated academic groups on the left and tricked them into publishing things that made them look stupid. Okay. And what's he doing now? he's wholeheartedly and genuinely saying retarded things. I'm like, uh-huh.

Or maybe he's doing what he's always done, which is his MO, to infiltrate the neoconservative right-wing faction, trick them into sounding like morons by saying dumb things, so it discredits the arguments against Nick. This was brought up by Rich Beres and what's the fellow's name for Messon, Mitchell? Yeah. He said, they said, they're basically making Nick a high. household name. Why are they doing it? I'm like, well, again, we can go back to the MO of James Lindsay, which is infiltrate left, you know, he infiltrated leftist groups, trick them into giving stupid arguments and being made fun of so that it discredited them. And now here he is aligned with

neocons, for which he's never been one and making them sound like retards. So I have to assume that as Nick is saying things like no free market, and he's very much holds similar views to the left and wants to align with them, I think that's the, that's the MO of James. to discredit this concept of woke right. I understand the point they're making is that, as you've mentioned, Nick Fuentes' identitarian views solely because of his race won't align with the leftist identity identity views, which are anti-white, but right wing does not mean white. This is literally just a different element of wokeism.

It's literally leftist. Yeah, and yes, his, like, whites are better, and then kind of the left, the past handful of years as like non-white is better. But what that has in common is it's a race-based view. Identitarianism. So I do, yeah. So to me, yeah, it does ring true that he just acts like a leftist. But I'm not here to have the debate over Nick being left, right, up down, whatever stuff means. The question is the GOP has largely done a bad job, in my opinion. Yeah. What we are getting from Donald Trump seems to be surface-level scratches on a gigantic steel sphere. We're not cracking to the core and figuring out what's going on. Where's the rot? We're just getting red meat. It's been

almost a year now. And what do we have to show for it? What would you like? Mortgage fraud indictments? What would you like to see that? Like, I guess the question here is like, what is it that people would expect in a perfect world? He's doing everything exactly the way you want it. What would it? I'm specifically referring to the criminal elements of the government and what it means if Trump doesn't succeed in 26 and 28. I'm actually rather happy with his moves on the tariffs, and I think he's done pretty dang well in general policy measures. His immigration raids, we're not getting the numbers we were hoping to see,

but that's not his fault. That's the Biden administration's fault. He's doing a pretty good job with ICE with immigration. I think Pam Bondi is not doing a particularly, let me put it this way. I think Pam Bondi is a general net positive, but lacking, and there are much, much better people. I know people have criticisms of Cash Patel and Dan Bongino. I don't know if there's anyone who would have been better.

Pam Bondi, maybe, to be honest. The Epstein stuff is weird, broken, and they screwed this one up. And that does fall into Cash and Dan as well. But I don't know if you could name someone who would have been better than Cash and Dan. Sorry, it's like if it's not them, then who. However, I think Pam Bondi is a C plus. I'm not trying to be a dick to Pam Bondi, but, you know, she's been like a C plus. It's like good, not great.

So the Trump administration, in terms of the deal, I think could have done a lot better. Perhaps the sad reality is they could not have and we're just, it's wishful thinking. But again, I'll stress policy-wise, I'm actually fairly happy. I think maybe there's always room for improvement. Trump could have done better for sure, but he's doing well. It's pretty good. Yeah, I mean, if you read Trump's truth social tweet that we saw a few minutes ago, he's clearly doing very well.

Yeah, you said it right there. Yeah, you can tell. It's like three extra paragraphs in there. look, I don't imagine that a lot of people, like, it took a large coalition to get him elected, and I imagine a lot of that was based on economics, and those people aren't worried about the arrests. They're not worried about the government rot. They're worried about whether they're going to be able to afford their groceries. So, while we would love to see those arrests, and I, for one, you know, but we pay attention to politics, right?

Like, it becomes almost like a spectator sport in which you pay, you read so much about this stuff, you pay such close attention, you want to see action happen, and it doesn't necessarily come to pass. But he also needs to pass and other things, not just policies, but the grocery prices have to come down. Things have to change. Is that all entirely on him? No. Not entirely. It takes a long time.

And in a lot of ways, inflation takes forever if it ever goes down at all, right? Well, inflation, the prices aren't going to go down. You need wages to come up to meet the inflation. It's to stabilize, right? So I don't know if there's a better path forward. I do think that they could be better about getting out the things they've succeeded on, because it feels like

what happens, at least if you're on X, and maybe that's just a bubble of your own is that you get lost and all the people talking about what hasn't happened and you need to focus on the stuff that has and leave out the stuff that people know is not true like the grocery prices and the fact that the economy is doing great and all that stuff. You need to, like the Supreme

Court is just one of those many wins if you want to talk about that. Like look what we've done for future generations with our appointments to the Supreme Court. That's something that you can talk about as a win, but he needs to get away from the messaging path that he's on right now. I mean, just like, just the

the fact that the border's closed. Roe v. Wade got overturned. Affirmative action was overturned at the Supreme Court. The Voting Rights Act is in question. Those are things that are directly because of Donald Trump, right? Whether it be policies that he has, which is like the border that was, he came in, he fixed it. All of the Democrats, they swore up and down that nothing could be done.

You couldn't do anything. We had to have this big new bill, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And it turns out, no, all you had to do is actually just have a president that wanted to actually close the border. And look what's happened. The board's closed. and then all the other stuff that the Supreme Court has done, you know, that was all directly because of Donald Trump's appointments to the Supreme Court. But even the border stuff doesn't necessarily work for him because people are like, why aren't there more deportations? Why aren't you?

It's true there are. There are people that are like, why aren't there more? And I'm, you know, one of those people. I want to see more deportations. I want to see, you know, I want to see everybody that's here illegally deported. But at the same time, the fact that the border is closed and we had a, we have a net. decrease in population because of that, because of the border this year. But then he's like, you know what, H-1B visas? Bring them all in. Yes. He's $600.000. Like he's got... I'm not saying he's perfect. But the point that I'm making is like he

has done a lot of the things that he's made promises to. But part of the reason why people feel unhappy is one, the economy, and two, because they want to see a president come in and say, you're going to jail, you're going to jail, you're going to jail, you're going to

jail, you're going to jail, and all of that, like, that doesn't happen unless you have like an actual authoritarian, you know, president that comes in and says, who cares about the law? We're just going to start tossing people into jail. And there are people that are on the, on the right, that are, they tend to be extremely online that are like, that's what I want to see. I want a dictator. I want someone to come in and do all of these things. And if he doesn't, then he's failed us, blah, blah, blah. And like, those people are never going to be happy because of the way that our government works. Like Donald Trump just doesn't have the authority to do that stuff.

I think to appreciate the major differences Trump has made, you have to look at the long term. I think he's smart enough that a lot of what he does, it doesn't necessarily benefit like right now. You can't tangibly see it like you could. Hey, grocery prices are way down. That's amazing. That's great right now.

But like just closing the border, deporting dangerous criminals, long term, those of us with kids, we say America is going to be a better place for my kids. There's not these maniac criminals just flocking into the country, forklift, you know, tearing down the fences so they can get in easier and therefore, you know, make our country a more dangerous place over the next 10 years, 20 years. So I think Trump has, you know, done a great service where he's made our country better long term. and, you know, the short-term gratification of seeing grocery prices go down, that would be great, but I think he's doing better things than that. I think the biggest thing that my biggest takeaway is something that might have been unintentional,

and that's like the complete culture shift. You know, like a couple years ago, you couldn't say anything online without maybe being afraid of losing your job, losing everything. Now there's people out, like, you can pretty much say whatever you want, than reason. You know, you could be canceled over a joke from 2010 or 2018 a couple of years ago. And I mean a mild joke, too. Nothing insane or crazy at all. And people are generally, they feel safer to say what they want to say. And I think that's leading to taking away the power from these people that thought, oh, I can just be an anonymous source and send an anonymous link

and just ruin somebody's life, you know what I'm saying? Oddly enough, Nick Fuentes has become like the dividing line on that. If you saw the story about Dasha from Red Scare, you know, losing her talent agency over that. Because one guy obsessively emailed her, Gersh, for like two years saying that everybody that she was interviewing was a bad person. But then the last, the bridge too far was the contest. Yeah. Let's jump to this next story.

We've got some Fox Weather, because weather is interesting. Record breaking 252 mile an hour wind reading verified from historic hurricane Melissa. Climate change. This is the, well, there's a couple funny points to make on this one. I guess it's the previous record high, so it's the, this is the fastest wind speed recorded for hurricane ever. The strongest wind hurricane ever recorded. No, it's not climate change. It's the poll shift.

No, the funny thing is, considering a story like this, you would think climate change would matter, but literally Democrats just don't care at all about climate change. It's not a thing anymore. Bill Gates, Obama, like a handful of powerful elites were like, yeah, I don't know about that anymore. The interesting thing, however, is at the same time, we have a story that we follow because I think it's fun, interesting, and maybe it's not correct or whatever, but this theory of the pole shift. And these weather phenomenon play into it because of the energy that hit the atmosphere from the sun as our magnetic field weekends. And one of the stories we've been talking about quite a bit is the Aurora. Where are you based on, J.P?

Austin, Texas. Did you see the Aurora? I did not. Do you know people who did? Because in Central Texas, you could see the Aurora Borealis. No. That's how crazy it's pretty jealous. All my friends were saying, oh, me, look at this great gold thing in the sky.

And I'm like, my sky is just black. It was cloudy here. It was sad. We got ripped off. Yeah, I think nighttime is just a conspiracy theory. I don't believe in the dark. I didn't look. So, you know, not to harp on this stuff, but we have had the conversation for a little bit.

and with the strongest hurricane ever recorded, doesn't mean the strongest hurricane ever, but the Aurora and these phenomenon, I think it's more interesting to talk about, are we in the end of days, and will the axis shift and the polls shift, and then humanity will be wiped out and sent to the Stone Age? Well, there were no hurricanes that made landfall in the United States,

so I think that the United States is not actually going to have to worry about it anymore. I think that this year is an indicator. There will be no more hurricanes in the U.S. ever again. We're good. The rest of the world, you guys are screwed. win again. Trump, USA, USA.

Trump fixed hurricanes. He did, yeah. Another good thing. He's threatened with nuclear weapons. We're not doing that again. We're not doing that again. I have this article from stupid dope. What would happen if Earth's polls flipped? And it's like,

well, one thing you'd notice is that the South Atlantic anomaly would start fluctuating and growing. It is. We just covered that story yesterday that it's now the size of Europe. And it says, satellites would be affected by this, which is literally the story. However, we don't got to worry until the satellites start falling and New York City's grid collapses and then environmental chaos begins plus earthquakes, tectonic weirdness, and tsunamis, as well as

compass-free living. Sounds like moonfall. Compass-free living. That got way worse. I'm so tired of compasses. Remember, like, read articles like this and then realize you have to go live or start a segment, Tim? Like, you're like reading these types of articles. You're like, crap, I'm not talking about this on the show today. No, I just do. What do you mean? Here we are.

I'm just like morning show. Like you ever catch yourself reading this stuff like before you go live and you're like crap. It wasn't even what I was gonna talk about. Not me, Brett. Not me. Never?

This is not a relatable phenomenon. I'm reading, you know, usually what happens in the morning is I'm reading all the news and then I'm like, as I'm reading it, I start wanting to talk. And I'm like, what do you mean? Plas gets defending her position. Where's the camera?

Let's go! These stories I actually just put in the roster and I'm like, we should talk about the world ending. So is the world ending? I mean, slowly. Yeah, I would think it has to end sometime. I mean, I would imagine... Now it's as good a time as any!

I would imagine no time soon, but eventually the sun's going to burn out. I think the sun will expand and consume earth before it burns out. Or that, even worse. It becomes a red dry and it'll start growing and then we'll get sucked in and then we're... That's why we need to be able

to travel interstellar. This is why I wanted to talk about Pluribus, but Brett hasn't seen it. Have you guys seen that show? No. Surge has seen it. I'm not. We've been talking about it, and so there's more spoilers for you, but the general, like the articles that are popping up to an Apple Plus TV show, Brett's favorite network, is a, scientists get a signal from space. They think it's quaternary and they're like, wait a minute, and he figures out it's actually RNA sequence. They make it. It turns out to be

a virus that links everyone's brains together. And the main character is this really awful woman. And I'm watching this show and I thought to myself, I think I understand the point of the show. They want us to hate the main character and love the hive mind. So all humans basically become psychically linked and they operate like a single entity. But there's a handful of characters, the main character, and she is insufferable. So what is it about her that's insufferable?

Can you give me an example? Yeah. She drinks and it's irrationally emotional. She screams in the face of like, so. She's a woman. That's fine. There you go. So that's why she's insufferable. They literally, the tag for the show is literally the world's unhappiest woman must save humanity from happiness.

If you had told me that headline of like, not only I'm going to not watch it, I'm going to campaign for other people. Here's what I think the purpose of the show is. It's to make us want to relate to age. eye. Because what happens is the hive mind people, they'll do anything she wants. There is a collective of all human consciousness that will provide for anything she needs. And she's awful, miserable. And she keeps screaming and just, it's just really, really hard to watch this, this, you know, no disrespect to the actress. But it's just so miserable to watch her. It's Ria Seahorn, who's that? Yeah, you start rooting for the hive mind of humans taken over by an

alien mind virus, literally. I will say, I don't know if that's necessarily the purpose, but Vince Gilligan, who's the creator of the show, got his start, well, not his start, but he was the X-Files, right? And the X-Files, they had a very, very unique process with how they used to write their episodes, which was basically like Chris Carter would have them all put ideas on, like, three-by-five note cards, and then they would assign them to people, and then they'd be like, what if we did this? But what if we added this? And then we added this.

I think that he is just the type of guy that really is enjoying exploring. science fiction again as opposed to doing Breaking Bad and... Right, but... What I see from this show is, the hive mind is basically AI. There's even references made to it, and some people started to speculate, where she says something like, you stole that from the mind of someone, which is not a dig at a hive mind, which is a singular hive entity, but it is a dig at an AI, which doesn't actually hold those memories, but copied it from somebody else and it integrated into its training model.

The show is basically... Anyone she talks to, save like a small handful of people, but almost every, like literally every character is one singular entity. And they're like, we'll give you anything you want. And she's like, screw you! And she like swings at it. It's just like, what are you doing? It seems like, I don't want to get to the predictive program and conspiracy stuff, but if you were to watch a show like this, your takeaway is, but the hive is just trying to help and it's so nice and giving.

And this woman is being so unreasonable. I love AI. All it does is answer my questions and say nice things to me and tell me how handsome I am. It's here to protect you and serve you. And additionally, it gives her whatever she wants, even if it's dangerous. And there's a particular scene where, you know, spoilers, guys, sorry, where there's 12 people on the planet, I guess 13 now, who are immune out of the billions. And one guy shows up on Air Force One with a bunch of models that he's just banging because the hive will do anything they say. which makes no sense, why would the hive mind care about them?

It would be like they're anomalous, ignore them. But anyway, she gets mad and she's like, is this okay that he's banging you? And they're like, we always welcome pleasure. And it's like, you have a hive mind that will make food for you, fly jets for you. It will give you anything you want. It will give you guns, weapons, cars.

And it will allow you to have any kind of deviant sexual fetish. I'm like, they're talking about the AI machine they're building. And they want us, This guy goes, he looks at it, he goes, I don't believe this is the end of the world. Do they use the word AI in the show? Actually, that's good then. Like, so one of my critiques of AI in Hollywood right now is that everybody's so terrified of it as a matter of like losing their jobs that they're so close to the material that they don't know how to write it with a deft hand. So if that is indeed the purpose, I will give him a lot of credit.

I would hate the, I would never watch a show with a main character that annoying. I don't have the threshold for it. It makes no sense why if every human in the person, planet became a hive, they would cater to your every whim. Unless the insinuation is they're creating a facsimile of what it's like for a person to ask AI who has access to all of these things that can fly planes for you, can drive cars for you, it can cook for you, and it can give you whatever deviant fetish experience you want. And this guy she meets, he says, no one is being murdered or raped. There's no more wars. We have whatever we want. The earth is healing. Power is being saved.

it doesn't seem like the end of the world to me and she's like, what is wrong with you? I hate all of you. And then she like passes out drunk. And then every time she has a panic tech screaming, she causes the hive to short circuit and fritz out, which results in people over the world dying. This is what I think of when I see Elon today being like,

and AI is going to make everybody wealthy and we're all going to, yeah, like that's what I think of. He's right though when you plug your brain into the matrix and you live in a fake matrix reality. So you have monopoly money in the matrix. This is what I was thinking when I was watching the show. I'm like, they're basically telling you if you could plug your brain in to a virtual experience where you were a king or a godlike entity,

enjoy it. You go into your pod, you jam the tube down your throat, right? So that can pump the food mush into your stomach. That you plug in and... And then you're sitting there, all gaunt and pale. But, but in your mind, you are maybe a professional race car driver,

you know, professional race car driver in the Arkhamenard series, really good at left turns, but in reality, you're just a fat, slovenly pig sitting on your couch watching TV. That could be happening right now. That could be my reality. I'm just a gaunt, little pill battery. It's like, how did I do all this?

How did I get here? All right, copper top. So would you guys, if there was a non-invasive, have you guys seen the Black Mirror episode where they put the thing on the attack? and then they go into the video game or whatever. If that existed, would you buy it? 100%.

I would, too. I would not. I'd be an ARCA race car driver in the Timcast car. I'd play NASCAR and I'd be like, look at me. I'm Cody Denison. Let's go. I remember that episode greatly. I would play the J.P. Sears YouTube video game.

I'd be like, look at me. I'm J.P. Sears. I'm making jokes on YouTube. That's not how I talk, Tim. Please. Well, that's theoretically somebody could be playing you. They could be like, I want to be a podcast. This is the joke I made.

Like, for all you know, like, you're not some famous podcaster with a massive live audience. You're some fat losers in his couch and everybody hates you. I mean, that's me anyway. You just left your thing on for way too long. Yeah. Yeah, it's like 10 minutes, but it seems like 20 years. Yeah. You just wake up.

You're like, out of your ass crew. The Mandela effect is just server patches. Yep. And so I forgot to update the memory on that one. Would you guys do it? I don't know. I mean, it seems. I don't know.

Maybe it's because I'm old and I have a kid now. I'm like, I'm like, if it was non-invasive, like getting a neuralink surgically implanted, it's out of the question. But like in black mirror, they had that, it's like you put on your temple on you. Oh, so it's not the chip in the brain. No. Yeah, why not then? In the show, they sit on the couch, grab a controller, which kind of makes no sense, actually. Why were they grabbing the controller?

Wasn't he grabbing? No, no, that was before. And then he buys the thing, plugs it in. The problem with that episode was, it was just about two black dudes who had sex with each other in a video game where he was. was an Asian woman, the other guy was an Asian guy. Sure, I guess, but like... I loved it. Asians? What?

Batman Forever, when Jim Carrey gives everybody the box that they can put on their head so they can be in the TV. Well, that just, all that did was, all that was was a 3D TV. Like, in that movie, they put the thing on their forehead, and then the TV becomes 3D, and it makes them retarded. Well, they start, because they, well, the idea is supposed to be like, they feel like they're inside of it, and they don't want to be any. Is that what it was?

Yeah. Yeah. Oh. See, that's the kind of thing that would have me a know. I think, you know, a lot of people, including myself to an extent, it's like we're allergic to discomfort and life is filled with uncomfortable experiences. And personally, I think life just, it flows better. We get more fulfilled if we embrace uncomfortable experiences.

So escaping into a reality, I think that could quickly become a form of addiction. I mean, people become addicted to video. That's a thing. The problem then isn't the medium. It's the addiction. Yes. I don't drink. I might have a glass of wine once per year.

You know, the holidays are coming up. I'm not opposed to drinking. I just don't enjoy it, but I'll have some. The problem isn't having a drink. The problem is drinking all day every day. And, you know, you could be addicted to things like eating spaghetti and you'll get malnourished. I saw one story like 10 years ago where a guy, all he did was eat sushi and then he died. from mercury poisoning.

Oh, there you go. It's like all good things, you know what I mean? Like, you got to slow down there. I think for myself, I know I have a very addictive personality. And that's got a positive side, like good work ethic. But also, like, just knowing myself, it's like, I wouldn't want the temptation. But it's a video game. That's the point.

I don't play video games either for the same reason. I don't really play all that often as much as I used to. Today I was Cody Dennison and I was driving the Timcast truck and race car. And I was pit maneuvering everybody and just knock it. him out. And it was funny because Cody knows all these guys and you see their name as I destroy their car in his image. And by the way, yeah, that guy

deserved it. If any of the other racers are watching this, Cody said he hates you all. He said you can't drive for crap. You can't knock him out on the racetrack. He's looking at you, Frankie Munez. All right, we're going to go to your rants and chats. So smash the like button. Share the show

I eat it at Thanksgiving, that's like the only time of the year I have. I am not even a fan of the sandwiches. No? Well, to be fair, oven-gold turkey, boar's head with some cheddar cheese on an onion roll cannot be beat. It's nice. Let's grab your

and rants. Cren says, Phil, my daughter turned 12 today, and is a huge All That Remains fan. Can she get a happy birthday? Happy birthday. She got anti-fragile on vinyl and lost her mind. That's awesome. What's her name? I wish that you put her name in so I could wish her happy birthday.

Her name is Philina. I'm kidding. Happy birthday to you. Cupcake says thank you, JP, for coming to Spokane. Hope to see you again soon. Seeing Scott Pressler tonight, fighting a secure W.A. State elections. Keep with the good fight, everybody.

Right. Thank you for that. Black Nexus says Republicans wouldn't even censure someone that colluded with Epstein to launch a fake impeachment against Trump. Ilhan Omar isn't deported. They won't do anything to Hillary. We wasted our votes. Well, I don't know that you wasted your vote so much that you didn't have anything else to vote for. Well, and there was more stuff to it than just those things, right?

You didn't just vote for that. Yeah. All right. James Smith's politics says Cody's Origins Online was to talk. talking about his horrible experience working at GameStop. It is, yeah. It was very random. I was like, I'm going to put up YouTube videos,

and I put out a video talking about GameStop. I saw this guy he had a video out, and he's like, I worked at GameStop, and I watched it, and he worked there for like a month or two. And I was like, well, damn, I worked there 11 years. Wow. And my manager used to bring, like, you know, escorts to the back of the store and everything. If you're, listen, if you're bringing them to the back of the store, they're not escorts.

They're not escorts. I was, you know, I complained to our regional, but he was like, he was like a 500-pound guy. He was like a big dude. And he was like, and he was just a 500-pound guy was bringing escorts in. Yeah, into the back room at games up. And he would do the craziest things. I mean, it was all like a movie. He, like, dropped his e-break and put his car in the river to get the insurance off at one time.

The dude was a wild guy. Anyways. He's living life on 10. Yeah. So I put a video out talking about that kind of stuff. And yeah, I'd been doing YouTube ever since. Bat Who Laughs says Stacey Plaskett received maximum placement. political donations from Jeffrey Epstein, Business Insider wrote an article on it back in

2023. That's what I'm saying. My opinion is that she was working for Epstein. He paid the way she did what she was told. Data says, and to what you said about the ex-purchase, Mr. Timcast, remember, Mr. Musk put a $1 million award for anyone to give tip on the programmer responsible on the problems inside the code. Hmm. Interesting. David Flores says DOJ just charged a Democrat from Florida with stealing $5 million in FEMA funds to fund her Democrat campaign, no less, and get a seat in Congress. That's the name of the game, isn't it? Let's see.

Roflo says, Tim, since you seem to like it as much as I do, if you don't know, a new Stargate series has been announced. Not many details yet, but it's happening. I saw that today. Stargate fans. You think you're real Stargate fans. It's embarrassing. I'm just going to point out that I received a text from, the Korenemic,

letting me know they were re-launching Stargate. So I'm just kidding, by the way, but shout out to Corin. We had him on the show, and we had one of the best bits we've ever done with Cast Castle, which was, we filmed the skit where Ian was convinced Stargate is real. And when

Corin came on the show, he was just like, this guy's crazy. I'm an actor. It's not real. And but Ian kept being like, I don't know, man. And so... I don't know. We go through the Stargate, man. And he's like, there's no Stargate. It was a prop. And then by the end of the bit, we're like, hey, man, it was really great to have you on the show, come back anytime. And he's like, all good. Well, I'll see you guys later. And he walks out the door. And then you see him looking towards the camera. And then he goes to his watch and he goes, we're good. Ian thinks it's fake now. And then you see the light from the Stargate open up and then he walks through. Those are early days. Yeah. That was like three years ago. That was fun. The Stargate was real. Yeah. And then we had Marjorie. We played Magic at the Gathering with Marjorie Taylor Green.

Those were fun days. Those were fun days. I have watched some Stargate. I'll never give in to Star Trek, but I did find a lot of SG-1 compelling. Stargate SG-1 is amazing. Just an absolutely incredible show. It's very much one of these shows

where they explore the philosophical consequences of technology and certain decisions. One episode, for instance, there's a planet where, for those under the premise of the show, there's a gate. they put in random coordinates, and then it brings them to another gate on another plan or something. They go to one where the probe sees nothing, but then as it moves forward, all of a sudden it's in like a normal looking little town.

And when they go there, there's like, oh, there's only a thousand people who live here. And then they watch somebody just zonk out and then just walk out to their death into the... There's basically a force field keeping air at safe to breathe and outside. It's like you'll die from some kind of environmental disaster. Anyway, it's a 20-year-old show. So here's the show's premise. They find out that there is a central AI that is wirelessly controlling people to commit suicide because as the power depletes, the force field shrinks, and they can't sustain the population

levels. Then they erase everyone's memory of that person having existed. So they're like, we've always been a thousand people. And then they go in the logs and it turns out it used to be millions, but as the power's breaking down and the field is shrinking, it's just deleting people. Great show. I'm glad it wasn't COVID killing him. I was worried about that.

Still we're in the middle of a pandemic, people. Please get serious about this. Six feet apart. All right, what we got here? Wayno Malio says the Simpsons episode about big squashing, changing the future, would have been inspired by a sound of thunder by Ray Bradbury. The episode where Homer makes a time travel toaster, and then he goes back in time and And then he kills the bug and goes, oops.

And then finally he snaps. It just starts smashing everything and destroying it. And then he finally makes it back to a future where everything seems normal, but they're all eating with their super long lizard tongues or frog tongues or whatever. Yeah, he comes back to the future and everything seems normal. Or no, one of the futures he goes to, he's like, tell me Marge, do we have this? Do we have that? She's like, yes, yes, it's fine.

And he goes, oh, great. Now pass me a donut. She goes, what's a donut? And he goes, ah! He runs back downstairs, hits the toaster. and then she looks at the window and donuts start falling from the sky and she goes how it's raining again.

The early Simpsons were the best. What's a donut? And they basically, tons of the, like the way everybody talks is based on the Simpsons. People don't know this. Meh.

Right? When people got meh, that's Simpsons. They made that up. They made up the grunt, meh. That's wild. And Yoink was made up. There's a whole bunch of other things. Quiet part loud is,

it was made up by the Simpsons. There was like a really interesting tweet. I just pulled it up from like, I think it was like two weeks ago where a guy says, The Simpsons is the ultimate boomer program because it tries to freeze time around their lives with increasingly absurd results. Marge is supposed to be 34, but she was 34 in 1989. Meaning she was born in 1959, so she is, 1995, so she's canonically 70 in the show. And Maggie is around 36.

Skinner is a middle-aged man with the still-living mother. And apparently he served in Vietnam. Yeah. None of this works, but for its generation that still don't see themselves as old. Yep. You know, it's interesting. Fairly odd parents solved this problem. You know how they solved it?

There's an episode where it's revealed Timmy Turner made a wish to be 10 years old forever. And it's been 50 years and no one's aged and the world just stays the same because it shows been on the air for like 20 years or whatever. That right now bonus for that one. Now I think, what is it? They added a young black girl. and now Timmy and this young black girl have to share the fairies. Is that what, where is it, where is it on? Like Nickelodeon or something.

Nickelodeon. Yep. All right. Mason says Massey is what I want every congressman to be like when this war is, when this war the Democrats is over. Indeed. Do you hear that, Phil? Yeah. I mean, look, I'm a Thomas Massey fan. Well, you're a bigger McConnell fan from what I understand.

All right. FIT button says, Nick has some decent. this ain't one of them and is the core. You really shouldn't estimate how stupid his viewers are. They know nothing and demand and embrace power. Sound familiar. I'm going to put it like this. The easiest thing for a politician to do to gain power is to say it's not your fault.

Someone else did something bad to you. And the problem for the left is that they said white people bad because they wanted to create a villain to rally these other demographics around. for Nick, he utilized a very similar world political point. That's why I'm not a fan of calling it necessarily woke to say this. Acuse someone of wronging you, demagogue. It's been done by every world leader all the time. They accuse Trump of doing it and Trump's not a leftist.

Nick is basically saying to the young white men, the left is doing this and or Israel and the special interests. It's not your fault. We have to take the power back from them. And so then you'll get a large base to rally around it. nobody wants to say it's my fault but I will tell you this if every problem you experience

you blame yourself for you will be much more successful than those who blame others I literally just did a video on this today I did a video about Lucy Lou saying like part of her if you don't know who Lucy Lou was she was in Kill Bill she was in the Charlie's Angels movies and she did a like she was talking about how like her be like her race played a role in her

career like stalling out and like first of all you've had a charmed career over like three decades decades and most actors would kill to have the career that you've had. But if you let other people, if you let people that you believe wronged you because of your race, if you give them that power, you're automatically kind of acquiescing to their worldview, right? Maybe it's true, maybe it's not. But taking ownership of what happens to you, both good and bad, can only benefit you in the long run because it keeps you from surrendering that power to other people. Jocco Willink wrote a book called Extreme Ownership.

Yeah, that's basically... So my lesson from my dad, was when I was a freshman in high school, which was only about two months, mind you, I was walking to school. And part of the reason I hated high school is we went from 730 a.m. to 2.30 p.m. class. And then the high school was like, I got an idea. Let's have the freshmen come at 11 a.m. and leave at 5.45 p.m. And it was like a hormonal shock to everybody. Like, you don't wake up that early. We're sitting around. There's nothing about daytime TV on. We have no idea what's going on. But anyway, so I'm walking to school and it's like 10.30 and a train comes. So I sit down and wait and the train keeps going by and the train stops and I'm sitting there for like a half an hour and I'm like, oh, there's a train.

And then finally the train clears. I get to school and they're like, you're late. That's a detention. And I had to get it signed by my parents. And I told my dad, I was like, the train came. It's not my fault. And he goes, you know the train tracks are there. You should have left early. And that's a great lesson. Because it's true. if now I didn't care for school so I was like I don't care I didn't go to detention so they gave me a Saturday detention I didn't go to that either and then I dropped out

so anyway but if you have an obligation and then you get into traffic and go it's not my fault there was traffic you will be less successful and the guy who says I better account for the traffic so I'm not late I feel like that's part of like

one of the issues with like podcasting and stuff like they need stuff to talk about it Like you said, Jaka Wilnick has got the radical ownership taken, so somebody else has to go somewhere else and talk about something else, and they have to go to blaming other people for what they think the problem is. But if you're talking internally, the best thing you can do for yourself is to hold yourself radically responsible for all of your actions. Maybe it isn't your fault sometimes,

but you're going to be much, much better off if you take responsibility for it. The idea is this. Obviously, it's not my fault, a train shut up unexpectedly and then stopped. We didn't know what's going to happen. But if we approach all of these circumstances from, how do I mitigate a potential problem, then you'll be better off. Being on time is being 15 minutes early.

That's right. Here we go. We got edgy gay retard, who says, I had someone use the illegals actually commit less crimes in the average American line on me today. I actually agree with the sentiment.

I also think the value of a group of people is linked to how much crime they commit. I think somebody just logged in my alt account. Jason Nixon says, Tim, shout out the Discord and the pre-show third chair was Slick and Olivia. Question for Tim. Who is your favorite cast member, and why is it surge?

Because he presses the buttons. I like that, Olivia. She sounds great. Indeed. The one free man says welfare should never be incentivized. Agreed. And the Trump admin says they're going to overhaul snap. They're going to make everyone have to reapply. We'll see. Which is, wow. Government workers are just turning gray right now.

Well, apparently there was a bunch of dead people that were on it as well. Yep. David Mullen Norolo. Tim, this is for you. Amazon Prime will be producing a brand new Stargate series with the original producers within the same universe as the original series, which means cameos from classic characters. I am down for it. What a great show. One of the funnier elements of the show is that life forms can ascend, like they become beings of pure energy and go to like a higher plane or something. It's a great show. I love it. Let's go. Also, Star Trek the next generation. Star Trek never got its proper sequel. So I'm a bit bummed. When they did Picard, it was kind of supposed to be like, what's after next generation? And it just turned into fan service. And then they went back in time and Trump was Trump's presidency led to a dictatorship. And it's just like, okay, I'm not going to watch

this. There's a, there are rumors going around that Kurtzman's going to be out and that they're going to be taking Star Trek a different direction now that David Ellison is in charge over there. I think what we need to do is just lead a peaceful revolt to Disney and demand that they burn all new Star Wars, like just all the data files and computers. We will dance around the fire of the sequel movies and all the stupid shows they've done. I suppose Andor and Rogue One can stay. But then we'll say, we'll act like none of these things ever happened and do a new sequel to Return to the Jedi, which makes more sense and is more interesting.

Yes. So yeah, you can make it on AI on our platform. I will. And what's going to happen is when Disney launches their creator's corner, which they've talked about doing now. You were sending me that article. It's funny. We were talking about this with Zachary Levi, and then Brett sends me an article where Disney is actually planning. A couple days later. Yep. They're planning an AI function. We predicted this. They're playing an AI function on Disney Plus where you can make whatever you want with their characters.

I think they're ahead of schedule from what you predicted, too. That's the crazy part. I mean, maybe. What did I say, like a year or two? I think he said, yeah, two years. Two years. I think two years is still a safe bet, but maybe I'm crazy. I mean, this SORA II stuff is getting nuts. All these companies are investing in AI. I'm going to, you know what I'm going to do. I'm going to have, I think what will happen is you'll create an account on Disney and you'll have followers. Because this is what SORA is already doing.

I predicted this. Sora, when you sign up for ChatGPT's fake video thing, you get an ad handle and people follow the AI videos you make. It's going to be like, I'm going to go on Disney and I'm going to say, okay, we are going to fix Revenge of the Sith. First of all, we're deleting Phantom Menace, gone. we're starting with clone wars. We're putting a movie in between,

which is the actual clone wars. Then we're going to do Revenge of the Sith. And so I'm going to do that. But I'm also going to have short films that fix a whole bunch of movies. There's going to be the Empire did nothing wrong. Also, Sauron is the good guy. Sauron is the good.

It's all propaganda. Sauron is the good guy. You know why? Why? See, what's happening is, Middle Earth is chaos. Warring tribes and factions. petty squabbling the dwarves. What are they doing? Mining to their deaths, unleashing giant

monsters. Siron's like, okay, we need to order. And so what he decides is he gets a bunch of elves. He trains them. So they understand we are going to create a functional system and stop having this bickering. What do they do? What do the elves do? They write this propaganda and they write the orcs are, you know, Urukai, all monsters. Of course, just like how they depict Donald Trump is a white supremacist, when we all know that's not true. My joke is it would be fun to make alternate propaganda versions of how Saran was the good guy and how the empire were good. Just fix all these things, you know? I like it.

I'm going to have a good time doing it. All right, let's grab some more superchats. The Redneck Gibster says Hillary's off ring is aesthetically displeasing that a, what I say, a blue jay from the courts? I don't know what that means. I don't know what that sentence is. Anyway, the first part I understood. David Bricken says Geelaine Maxwell was at Chelsea Clinton's

wedding in 2017. There's photos of her at the wedding. That proves it. That connects everything right there. Even the Mandela effect. Yeah, case closed. I think we've solved it. Jekal says,

Jackal, BR. Interesting, I do not have my local rep's personal phone number to text when I want to collude. The funny thing is, like, I tried to make a joke that it's not normal to be able to do that, but I actually personally know Riley. Voted for him. He's a good dude.

He's doing great job. I do have my personal reps phone number two. Yeah. So there's that. Well, I guess there's a big club and we're in it. Just you guys are in. You two are in it. All right, let's go. Random username says, FYI, YouTube won't let me

comment on your videos again. This was a thing during Biden stopped being a thing since Trump and now has started again. That proves it. I don't know what it proves, but something's getting proved. Prove in. All right. What do we have here?

Mr. Gers says if Kamala had one, you'd know this is what you want. What, Stargate? What did he say? I don't know. All right, everybody. Smash that like button. Share the show with everyone you know, even grandma. Your cousins.
