Hey everyone, welcome to Libcast tonight. I'm filling in for Tim Poole. Really glad to be here. We have a terrific show for you. We have a great guest. We have a terrific panel. We are going to talk about how they got caught. It's a big story. Minnesota fraud shut down. The DOJ charged 15 people in a $90 million scheme. Todd Blanche was out there laying down the law. It's all very exciting. Guy even jumped off a balcony. So we'll get into that. But tonight we have with us Terry Schilling. Thanks so much, Livy. I was very happy to see that you're in the host chair. It's going to be a great show. We just had number eight, by the way, last time I was on. We were waiting for little Charlie's arrival, but he's here, safe and sound. Congratulations.

Seven older siblings, and everyone's doing great, so I'm happy to be back. So tell everyone where you are. I work in American Principles Project. We are the NRA for families. We don't do guns, but we protect the American family in campaigns and elections, and we help pass laws to protect them. Awesome. Shane Cashman is here. It's good to be here.

Congrats, man. Hey, thanks, Shane. That's incredible. I am a third generation space lawyer and protecting your rights right now. There's a startup trying to create daylight. Anytime you want, even at night, around the country, we need to put an end to that as it's not good,

especially if you're a vampire. I saw that they did a big light show in L.A. We didn't. Yeah, we're going to put an end to this. I'm with you, dude. That is light pollution. I'm also the host of Inverter World. Thanks for having me.

What's up, Ian? I'm very happy to be here with Octodad. The Man the Myth, The Legend. I'm not great. Welcome with number eight, dude. I had no idea. I'm so glad to hear it. Like four years since I've seen you.

I know. It feels like it. Ages. So you're in the house. I'm happy to be here. Ian Crossland back at it again. And we got the wonderful Carter Banks here. What's up, everyone?

I'm Carter Banks. And yeah, I'm pumped to be produced in the show today. Before we get into it, I do have a little word from our sponsors. And that is, there's a new. global sport competition happening in Las Vegas on May 24th this Sunday, and it's unlike anything you've ever seen before. Go to enhanced.com slash games. The enhanced games bring together elite athletes from around the world competing at absolute limits of human performance, no hiding, no pretending, complete transparency and what athletes are putting,

wait, complete transparency about what athletes are putting in their bodies. And you can watch the entire event live on Rumble. The results be for themselves. Elite weightlifters typically improve strength around 1.5% annually, yet enhanced weightlifting cohorts saw strength increases ranging from 8 to 33% in a single camp cycle, a 2 to 7 time multiplier on expected gains. These are not generic supplements. They are performance protocols matched to biology, data and refined over time. Every ingredient published, every dose explained, go to enhanced dot com slash games and make sure to watch the event this weekend live on Rumble. I like it.

It's a pretty cool thing. Get enhanced. Yeah. Yeah, so let's get into it. Carter, can you pull up that first story? Yes, I have got you. And we will talk about it. This is from the Post-Millennial Department of Justice charges 15 defendants in a $90 million

Minnesota Medicaid fraud takedown. This is from Katie Davis. Court, one of my favorites. The United States Department of Justice announced criminal charges against 15 individuals on Thursday as part of a major crackdown on fraud in Minnesota, resulting in $90 million in losses. The defendant's owners of child care centers and various Medicaid providers allegedly stole from the country's most vulnerable, including autistic children, the disabled and the homeless, according to the DOJ. Minnesota will no longer serve as a safe haven for fraud, nor will any state in this country, said acting U.S.

Attorney General Todd Blanche, asserting that the DOJ will hunt down fraudsters wherever they are and systematically dismantle their predatory schemes. There are seven state-managed Medicaid programs that were systematically pilfered by fraudsters who treated taxpayer funds as their personal piggy bank, according to Colin McDonald, assistant attorney general for the DOJ's National Fraud Enforcement Division, who announced the indictments. One of the most notable instances is, is Minnesota's Housing Stabilization Services Program, which was created to assist homeless and disabled people in finding and maintaining housing.

Initially projected in 2020 to cost roughly $2.6 million. The program's annual cost skyrocketed to over $104 million by 2024, blamed on fraud. And we even had an incident... Do we have that other one? Yes. The guy? Well, we can talk about that.

Do we have the guy, though? the guy who jumped off a balcony? I saw that and I wasn't sure. Yeah, we have that. Let me check it out real quick. But guys, why do we have all of this fraud happening in Minnesota? What is up with this? I don't, that's what I was the question I was going to ask.

I don't understand why Minnesota. Do you guys have any beat on that? I don't know. I think we just need to build a wall around that state. Just build a wall around Minnesota. And like they're saying this is the biggest autism fraud scheme. Well, there've been a number of fraud schemes over the past few years. This all started with an indictment against not for,

profit called Feeding Our Future, which was run by Somali immigrants and descendants, as well as a woman named Amy Brock, who I think today was sentenced to 42 years in prison for her wrangling of this scheme. And they took a bunch of money from the state of Minnesota that was part of the federal COVID relief and said that they were going to be using it to feed hungry children. And instead, they pocketed the money. They bought expensive cars. They lived a nice lifestyle. And then according to later reporting from Christopher Rufo, you even had people who were taking money from the state fraudulently and then sending it back to Somalia where it funded terrorist organizations. So we have a situation where it's, I mean, it's not just immigrants in Somalia.

It's in Minnesota. It's descendants of immigrants. And it's also Americans who are getting involved in these fraud schemes. And we saw also like all of this stuff about how. Part of the issue was that the people who were doing the oversight in Minnesota were afraid to be called racist if they looked into it too deeply. So, I mean, we have a number of factors here, you know. The fear of being called a racist is obviously got to be a factor. But I think that this is happening, I think, it appears primarily in blue states where they turn a blind eye to this.

And I think it's related to the tribe theory. you're either in my tribe or you're not. I don't, this is all great. I love that they're arresting these people and getting some serious justice, but it's never going to stop until people like Tim Walls feel the pain. You have to go after the people that are in charge, not the people that are the underlings that are just doing it. They had bosses and people that were in charge of oversight there.

And until the people that are in charge of the oversight are held accountable for their gross negligence and their dereliction of duty, you're going to keep having this. The bosses have to start getting in trouble. The people in charge have to start getting in trouble. You're always going to have underlings and goons trying to steal and commit crimes. But it's when the people at the top,

the people that have the authority don't enforce it or turn blind eyes and allow it to grow. This is a level we've never seen before in the United States. And I don't know if it's just reached critical mass where we reached it or if this just exploded at the arrival of all of the summer. Molly immigrants. I don't know. I was just saying Minnesota's been in the news a lot in the past year.

I mean, six years, really, George Floyd. Of course, yeah. That church shooting that happened last summer, I think it was. The annunciation. And the political assassinations that happened there, Vance or Volter, whatever his name was. It's just weird. You know, sometimes when I read these stories out of Haiti,

it makes me think of, like, out of Minnesota, it makes me think of Haiti. Because, yeah, you like that. Well, that's how it is. But, because Haiti is like a petri dish for America for the government to test on people. Woodrow Wilson started it, the Clintons did it, and destroyed Haiti. And sometimes we have these states where fraud is happening and all this weird political violence. And I'm like, I think there's a broader thing happening behind the scenes

here where they allow this stuff and people enriching themselves while funding destruction and death. They probably like allow it and then the next level manager allows it, allows it, lies about it. And then the next guy doesn't know what's happening. I would imagine up the that's generally how it's, it's a border state. So it's basically like, I don't know if they're sneaking across if they can escape. Like the guy jumped off the balcony and run to Canada. I don't know if he tried to get. Actually, I do have that story for us.

Yeah, do you want to take a look at that? I think we have, yeah, so this man jumped from a fourth floor balcony to flee detention and was then, he was then captured. But this is what Cash Patel said after today's intra-agency press conference announcing 15 public health care fraud indictments, the below suspect who was on the run, Mohammed Omar has now been arrested. So he apparently jumped off this balcony. It's a lot of floors to jump.

It's a lot of floors to jump. I thought I saw a... Did he at least hang down and drop? I mean, even if you did. That's like gets you a floor. I got it. I used to do that on my second floor of my parents' house. I'd hang out the window and then drop.

You only drop one story at that point. Six, eight feet. Yeah, I never jumped out of window. I've climbed in windows. I've climbed up three floors. Yeah, but I've never... Like Spider-Man it? Yeah.

Oh, hardcore. It was a weird night. Do you ever like lock yourself out and then you have to find the one window that's open, fry it open? And I also lost my phone and found it the next day by retracing the steps. Oh, well, very good. Yeah. So one of the things about this Minnesota fraud, like you were saying about Tim Walts needing to be held accountable or the people just not knowing what's going on, I wonder what holding Tim Waltz accountable looks like, especially when we have a Democrat party that is so insistent. on making Tim Walts and people like him the face of their movement.

We recently had Barack Obama talking about how Mom Donnie is the face of the Democratic Party going forward. And it's not just, I fear it's not just Minnesota. You know, J.D. Vance is out there trying to uncover the fraud in other places. But I know Ari Hoffman with the Post-Millennial has been tracking this down in Washington State. And it's more daycare fraud. There's like a lot of this daycare fraud. Why do you think, like, why is it so, is that an industry, these social services industries seem really ripe for fraud? Look, I don't think it's rocket science.

I mean, they're going to the programs that are most defensible, right? They're most sacred. And that's where the fraud is, which makes sense. Because anyone that scrutinizes those programs or points out the fraud, you then get to accuse your opponents who are trying to cut back on your fraud of taking money away from working. families and struggling families. And it's a tearjerker. It's a heartstring puller. That's what it is.

And so I think that these programs that are ultra sacred, you know, social security, I bet there's obviously a lot of fraud there. Anything where the money is going to actual vulnerable people as like the main thrust of the program, those are going to be ripe with fraud. They're going to be very likely to have huge amounts of fraud just because they're sacred and no one wants to touch them. That's a good point. It's a good cover.

And we're seeing hundreds of fraudulent hospices also going under in California. In California. So it's kind of the same thing. It's like the sacred very, you know, you want to help these people who are dying and die, you know, as easily and pain free as possible. But then it's like hundreds of fraudulent ones throughout California. Did Nick Shirley? See the guy that ripped the top off of this whole fraud conversation? It had been bubbling up for a while.

I mean, there had been extensive reporting on it. But his videos going viral really, really made the exposure that much. more national. Had there been exposure on this stuff before they knocked down USAID? Yeah. Well, that's the thing. This feeding our future thing has been going on for years. And there were indictments going on for years. We were reporting on it at post-millennial. Other people were reporting on it. I remember distinctly Charlie Kirk talking about it because it was really so egregious, but it wasn't making the kinds of national headlines that it did once, once I think it sort of got tied to, yeah,

Learing Center and all of that. And once those videos went out, I think that did really make a difference. It shows you how important independent media is. Oh my gosh. It's so powerful. Dude, some random guy get an internet video camera and show 100 million people

something tonight. It's so powerful. Yeah. Mind-twistingly powerful this technology. I wonder if USAID was covering for this stuff or opting to stifle or not run these stories on purpose. Not USAD specifically, but that whole like deep net web that was kind of dark money getting pushed around through NGOs and stuff. I wonder if they were participating and covering this kind of thing up or if it's just more emergent. Well, Libby, you said earlier

that you thought people were afraid of calling this out out of fear of racism. The class in America that is most worried about claims of racism, it's journalists, right? Right. That's interesting. The mainstream journal, this story should be on the front page of every major news station, a newspaper and every news station. But it's getting ignored. There's this new dynamic where the legacy media outlets and the newspapers we have really don't cover the things that need to get covered. I mean, maybe that's just how it's always been. And that's how we got here. But they ignore this stuff.

If it hurts their tribe, if it hurts their team, they don't cover it because they don't. I do think that they actually believe that Trump and the Republicans are Hitler. It's very low IQ, but I think they do believe that. And they're scared to death. And they keep saying it. Even after everything that's gone on, they keep saying Trump is Hitler. We recently saw, what was it, Justin Pearson in Tennessee. He is, I think he's a state level legislator.

He's running for Congress, I think. And he was calling Trump all kinds of things, you know, calling it like, I think it was like white supremacist and all of this, saying that the Supreme Court decision in Louisiana v. Calais saying that race-based redistricting is patently unconstitutional, they're calling that decision racist. And now that we have all of these changes in the maps all over the South, it's been kind of crazy to see how that's all worked out when you had like Hakeem Jeffries yesterday and everybody's saying that they should, you had the NAACP and Democrats, including

Hakeem Jeffries come out and say that black students should boycott southern schools. They're calling for segregation because now they're saying segregation is how you fight racism instead of segregation being just racist. And that's not new to them because the universities have been trying that for a decade now. Like in New York. They've been working on that. How many colleges are like, we just need segregated dorms and all stuff. Like, wait, I thought you were the anti-segregation people.

And they have the segregated graduations as well, which I think is so wild. And we saw recently, I think there was a segregated graduation at Columbia. There's ones at Harvard. And you have all these schools being brought up by Hermit Dillon, who's such a superhero rock star, who's saying, you know, hey, med schools, you can't decide to discriminate against white students and Asian students who have better test scores than minority students who you're bumping up to the top. And every time you hear about problems in American health care, I start to think, well, we've got this massive fraud. that's fleecing everybody that's taking all the money out of the system. And then we've got a situation where we're not promoting the people who are likely to be the best doctors. Because we care more about these other things.

If they go back to only letting students at Harvard in who have the highest test scores, they're going to have to get rid of their entire remedial courses staff. I mean, do you know how many people will lose their jobs in livelihood? You need to start thinking about these people. They need jobs too. And if you're a remedial professor at Harvard, you have every right to be there too. Not to mention the DEI programs. You know, we need the DEI programs.

Robots are going to take those jobs here anyway, though. Also the HR. Don't you think we're going to have like robot HR? Oh yeah. Yeah, yeah. Those were a conversation recently. I forget which AI CEO is saying this, but he was like a managerial class will be gone. Another AI CEO is like the white collar jobs will be gone.

Another one was saying the middle class jobs will be gone. So it's good. It's good stuff. Just get rid of all the jobs. Yeah, that's what they want. Just get rid of all the jobs. It'll be a paradise. Right.

For who? Not us. I do think that moving away from the jobs-based economy might be a good step forward, although it could be painful in the interim room because the Federal Reserve's job system. I don't know if it's just the Federal Reserve system, but they'll say, like, you dig a hole, and then you fill up the hole, and we're going to pay you both with our funny money, and then you have to pay us back at interest.

So they loan the money of the government. the government has to pay them back with interest so the bankers make the money they keep us as debt slaves and then we're paid for like useless jobs there's a lot of like crap crap just to keep people busy so they don't revolt yeah not saying they take away all the jobs at once

I don't want to take away purpose from people too you know that's what it's going to happen if they take all the jobs away that's true because people will not have purpose and like all jobs are important I mean not I mean you could argue some jobs aren't as important but I think there's a lot of jobs a lot of people won't take that are really important I think their argument is that if they take away jobs

that'll give people time to do things that are their purpose, but I don't think it works like that sounds like communism. That's the paradise of a false utopia. I don't know how you find your purpose without putting yourself to a useful application. Yeah. You know, that's the thing that I worry about.

It's like when you're a kid, you have stuff that you're supposed to do. I remember distinctly like my parents made me do, you know, chores, which at the time I thought like, being, you know, tortured. But I'm sure looking back, it was totally fine. But I always would have to like rake the yard.

And we had this like corner house and you have to rake the yard and it took a long time. And I would stand out there raking the yard like composing poems and vignettes in my head. And then I would memorize them and then I would know them. So if I hadn't had to rake the yard, I never would have spent the time to compose poems and put them to memory. I just would have watched more Cosby show. Which was good. I had a similar experience as weighted tables of Dusties in LA on 3,200 West Sunset. It's not there anymore, but a great area.

And I would just hate it. I'd be there at 7.30 in the morning. I hate this job, getting the pepper and the salt on the table, getting the napkins folded. And all I want to do is go make videos on YouTube and just make YouTube videos. And I would just hate all day. But I'd make the best of it. I'd get stoned out back. And then I would come home like a fireball and make videos.

And I think if I didn't have that job to, like, yearn for something greater that I wouldn't never have done the greater things. I mean, maybe I could have pulled it off. I can totally relate to what you're saying, Libby, though, because, like, I had a job where I was standing at the podium at Cinemark, just taking ticket stubs for, like, six hours. And, like, there were times where I was just standing there writing songs in my head.

I think you guys, I think what we have to show here is that you guys had cool jobs. Maybe. You know? Sometimes. I think these are cool jobs. I was mucking horse stalls. But, you know, our medical field is already a mess,

and the fraud doesn't help. And then thinking about Harvard and people who want to become doctors, like it's hard to find a good doctor. Yeah. Post COVID, you know, everything's been, the good doctors are disincentified. You know, most, I go to a doctor and I was looking at a computer the whole time. We've just talked about that last night.

It's so hardcore since the insurance agency is basically in the 90s, I think. They started billing dog. They're like, hey, doctors, we're going to give you all of our patients. You don't have to like publicize your doctor office anymore. But the thing is, you're going to have a lot more patients. Doctors is like, all right, so we don't have to promote or look for people. but we have to see 10 times more people. We see four people an hour now.

You might get paid for giving this pill out. Yeah. It's like not good. Let's jump to this next story. Trump urges the Supreme Court to do what's right and uphold his executive order ending birthright citizenship. I'm really interested to know what you guys think the court will do. Trump said it would be a disgrace if the Supreme Court rules against his order ending birthright citizenship.

He told reporters that birthright citizenship was not meant for Chinese billionaires who have their children become citizens of our country. This was meant for the babies of slaves. This was signed right after the Civil War. You look at the dates, the dates alone immediately after. This was having to do with the babies of slaves, and people have used it. And if this is allowed to stand, it will be a disaster economically for our country. And you'll have 25 people of the people coming into our country coming in through birthright citizenship.

And we won't have any control. We can take a little look at this clip. Now we have another one coming up, which is birthright citizenship. and we're the only country in the world that has it. You step into our country and you're all of a sudden a citizen. You come in a certain way. This was not meant for Chinese billionaires to have their children become citizens of our country. This was meant, or other rich people, poor people.

This was meant for the babies of slaves. This was signed during right after the Civil War. You look at the dates, the dates alone, immediately, after. This was having to do with the babies of slaves, and people have used it, and if this is allowed to stand, it will be a disaster economically for our country, and you'll have 25% of the people coming into our country coming in through birthright citizenship, and we won't have any control. This decision by the Supreme Court is a very big one. They'll probably rule against me because they seem to like doing that.

you know frankly I'm not happy with some of the decisions look at NIL so what do you guys think I just want to point something out I don't know if you guys have noticed this me and Beth Bache who does social media at the post millennial we were looking at

these clips today and we could not get over this man's outy belly button in the background it is distracting what's going on it was very distracting this is a situation where I think you know like you wear a

blazer. This is why you get a blazer. You know, even a button down with an under shirt. He shouldn't have been allowed. He shouldn't have been allowed in there. He shouldn't have listen, be allowed in there. I'm going to fat shame. No, no. I don't, it's really the outy shaming. I have no problem with. Well, first of all, this is. It's just a little

much. We know this guy. We all know this guy. He's at our local VFW every Friday. And he just finished up 18 holes earlier in the day. Totally fine. This is, he just found himself with the White House today. That's what happened. saying throw a blazer in the car, you just keep it there. I think Trump.

Ellie button protruding. My policy is, you go to the White House. I just found it so distracting because he's in, the belly is in every clip. If his face was there, you'd focus on the face. People are, there's a video circulating that's AI, I think, of Trump kissing that man. No.

I think it's a lot, but you can't tell these days. I don't know if it's AI. It might be real, yeah. I didn't watch the full thing. We're going to make babies, real American babies. Right? I think that he's, what do you guys, what do you guys think? Do you think the Supreme Court is going to rule against Trump?

Yeah, he's probably right now. Oh, no, actually. I mean, I don't know if an executive order is the way to get this done. So maybe they'll rule against it just because it's an executive order. Just like on procedure. Yeah. But he's hitting the talking points that are correct. Like, it was before airplanes existed.

You couldn't just take some random Indian guy that spoke no English, fly into the United States without even like a visa and then just have a kid. And then that kid's an American. What the, like that made no sense. And it was also before. welfare. It was before the welfare state, before we started giving out money to anyone and everyone that has a kid, and even more, if you don't have a husband or a father involved. There's a lot of perverse incentives now that he's exactly right. This would destroy the country if we don't get rid of it. Yeah. And we also have the situation. This is something Tim talks about all the time

where there's like 1.15 million American citizen babies being raised in China to Chinese parents who had their children in like the Northern Mariana Islands or wherever else in America and then got the American passport and took the kids back home. And now they're raising American citizens who will be eligible to run for president at a certain point. And after I had this recent conversation with Chloe Chung, who is a Chinese dissident, she was part of the Hong Kong umbrella revolution. And then she left with her family. She was a young lady. She was just in high school. And she left and went to the UK and now there's a million dollar bounty on her head from the CCP. And she's just this nice kid, you know, who was trying to do what was right for Hong Kong.

But she was saying that if you're a student in China, then you want to study in the U.S., you essentially have to go through the ranks and get approval from the CCP. So to a certain extent, any of these American citizens being raised in China will have the thumbprint of the CCP on them when they eventually come here. Why do you think we have all these spies? Yeah. Fang Fang, the one was a mayor in California. We only got nine years, by the way.

She only got nine years for being a Chinese asset and running the town of Arcadia, California. And on top of that, we have all these secret Chinese police stations around the country that keep finding. You see the one that happened in the Bronx they uncovered like a week ago. There was one in Colorado. There was one in California. And also secret Chinese bio labs that they keep breaking into. What's that?

What do you mean? They're just, they've got like biolabs or they're working on viruses they shouldn't have. Mm-hmm. And it's had two in California, I think, this year. Not just in Wuhan. Not just in Wuhan, yeah. Wuhan satellites. Right.

Yeah. I think Trump just said he wanted China to buy more farmland in the U.S. Yeah, it's also not good. Wait, that's not good. That seemed crazy. That seems like a really bad idea. It's a really bad. That was a strange thing for it.

I'm pretty sure that's the what he was saying. I'm not sure of the details, but there was something being said about him bring Chinese people bringing more business to. to the farms and I'm like, what farms do we have left? Yeah. And shouldn't they be American? I mean, our food supplies should be entirely American handled, I feel like. Can I share a thought I've had about this immigration crisis that made me think broader

about America in our society? I think we make this mistake. And I know this familiar. I'm very familiar with it because I'm in the culture war primarily. But we make this mistake of separating the economy and the culture. When the reality is, I think, that your culture really has. a huge impact on the direction of your economy. They both feed off of each other.

You know, you can make the two wings of the same bird analogy. But there was this video early on in this Trump administration last year where there was a video that was released where ICE was cracking down on one of these big farms in California and these illegal immigrants are fleeing. And you find out it's a pot farm. It's we. We're importing illegal immigrants not to pick our strawberries and our potatoes. and lower the price of our necessities.

No, they're picking our pot plants. They're helping us get high. When you make these types, I don't think people when they go to legalize something like marijuana, they don't think about how we're now going to be using human manpower to make drugs. That's a whole diversion where you could have those people using their skills and talents and labor to do other things that are more useful and beneficial to society. and I don't know I just I've had that thought I want to share I thought Timcast deep deep thinkers on this show and I just wanted to I don't know Ian what's your reaction to that to bring in illegal immigrants to do nefarious things let's work on pot farms well pot farms I've never been to a pop farm I hear it's like the most surprising thing I've ever heard you say yeah I know you think I'd own one at this point you look like you own one I'm about to buy one it's dirty man it's like slave labor because they'll bring people in they're

The people then can't complain if they're being abused by their employer because they have no paperwork. And so you do get a lot of like bad, poorly treated people out of it too, which is another kind of almost arguably a human rights, potential human rights violation. It's like if you can't guarantee human rights, you're essentially betraying them. You have to guarantee their human rights. It's a messy. And weren't there kids working there too? There's kids. Yeah, that was also crazy.

Not good. Children that can't say anything because they'll get extra. A lot of them were coming, like how many children were lost over? over the southern border. They were saying 300,000 children went missing over that border, but I think that's probably a conservative number. Yeah, those are just the people that are known about.

Right. Right. Those aren't like the godaways, you know, for example. They used to come in with families, and then all of a sudden, I think it was four years ago, they started just seeing kids dumped at the border with that. I mean, Jorge Ventura comes on the show. He came on the show a couple years ago. With the bracelets.

With bracelets that they would find these kids with bracelets, on entre cas, I means, delivered. And that's essentially they got the cargo, the meat, to the butcher, wherever the kid's going, I don't know. I mean, if you haven't seen Sin Frontera that 6-7 Kevin made, that shows all the worst parts of what's actually going on there. Well, the Biden administration, when they first came into office, changed the rules about

immigration and said that if you are an unaccompanied minor and you show up at the border, you are automatically given entry into the United States. And then you have, and additionally, you have what's called the Flores settlement, which has been in and out of courts since, I think, the late 80s, or maybe 92, but it's a ruling that says children cannot be held in detention for more than a certain period of time. I think it's 20 days. And as that ruling has shifted over the years, and it's always the same judge who's been ruling on that case, I think it's, I don't remember her name exactly, but she's in Southern California. And as that ruling has gone in and out of courts, she eventually said, well, if you can't hold

children in detention for more than 20 days, then if those children are accompanied by a grown-up, then you can't hold their grown-up in detention for more than 20 days either. So eventually, it became a situation where if you come across the border with a kid, it's a free entry. And if a kid just goes across by themselves, they don't have any trouble getting in. So under the guise of humanitarian aid and compassion, we have done so many things that have hurt so many more people, like you're talking about with the bracelets, because you have the coyotes just tagging people, little kids, sending them across the border.

Over the Biden years, we saw people just dropping toddlers across that border wall, you know? And so this is what we're doing. And I think it's interesting we were talking about in terms of culture because by allowing so many people into the country who have no connection to our founding,

who have no belief in, one of the things I think that is essential about, the United States and about United States American culture is that we identify as the greatest ever and the most powerful. And whether we are the greatest ever or the most powerful, I think we are, but, you know, that's part of my belief. Whether we are or not is sort of irrelevant, that's what we believe. And it's part of the zeitgeist of our country. It's part of who we are when we wander around the world in our white sneakers and we talk English loud, like that's part of who we are.

And something I love about us is we're just like, what? We're the greatest. You could be the greatest too. Like we're all, you know, let's do it. But we, you know,

yeah, we like undermine our culture when we have people come in who are here for the benefits or here to take advantage of things. What are you going to say? At the heart, at the root of believing that this is the greatest country ever. And this was reinforced by my great grandparents and my grandparents and my parents. It's gratitude.

Right? They, My grandparents and parents told me, this is the greatest country in the world. So many, your great-grandfather was in World War II. He sacrificed for our country. He fought for our country. You need to do your job. You have a duty.

You have to show that you're grateful. It was, it was, say, yes, Americans do believe, and it is true that we are the greatest nation in the world. But that's not braggadocious. It is more of a call to arms and a call to duty. And ultimately, gratitude. And that's the big difference with the people that, we're importing here.

Elon Omar, right, we saved her from one of the worst nations of all time where it has the highest levels of rape and murder, arson, corruption. It's like huge on corruption. It's terrible. And she has the gall to come here and lecture us about our problems. You should be kissing the ground you walked in. But because she doesn't have any ancestors who fought in any of our wars or have made any sacrifices for America, she thinks it's a right.

And so she is entitled. That is the disastrous spirit that we need to be on guard. You know, Memorial Day is Monday. That's important. My grandfather, both my grandfather, has fought in World War II and tanks in North Africa. My grandpa, Blaine, was a tank sergeant, probably ran over his own men, trying to command these guys, came back a fucking shell of a human being to protect us and to make the world what it is today. These guys, my dad is a, he gets pissed off at Trump a lot because Trump sometimes, he went to Arlington. and I think he talked shit about the trip.

Sorry, I watched my language. He was saying like, oh, what did they even die for? Like, Trump avoided the Vietnam draft because he had bones spurs. He was a rich kid with bones spurs. Didn't have to get his legs blown off in the jungle or face, you know, face Charlie or whatever they're doing over there. But these guys, what they've gone through, we live in this, like, post-Cold War era where we are living off the backs of the working man.

And we have no lived in this, like, fantasy land where there's no fear of retribution from anyone on the planet. it's not, like that is a, that's a breeding ground for what we see now, people that don't give us, like don't understand, I don't care. They haven't had to, haven't had to fight for anything. Like literally, fight. When I see, when I see people like, like, flaunting, like talking, like getting, I don't know, there's so many things that people do that I just, I don't want to wish war on, on anybody, on anyone I know. I don't want to wish combat on these guys, but it, there's something about, what these people went through that makes this country really important. Did you know your grandfather? Yeah, man.

But when I met him, he worked for the city when he got back from the Army and he was like a pole guy. He would climb up telephone poles and he fell off and broke his back. So when I knew him, he was bedridden, basically. But he was a mess. He was a mess of a man because he was in a tin can

for like eight months in the hot 108 degree Libyan desert, blowing guys apart, seeing his friends. friends get shredded. Dude. God knows. They ever see the movie Fury? For everyone out there watching

and you're into tanks, go watch Fury. That's the craziest tank movie. Yeah, it's a really good movie. Dude, those... You'll get a better idea of what you're talking about. Losterphobia, man, being in one of those metal things.

And like the friendly fire, that doesn't get talked about enough. The amount of friendly guys that get killed in combat just because you don't see them. It's awful. You don't know who's pointing where. Like,

I don't know how to instill that into people. I don't think you can. That gets instilled in you by external forces. I mean, those generations, they all sacrificed. They all went through absolute hell. And if it wasn't war, it was the Depression. It was having to be thrifty and save and not indulge. Ian, we are soft.

I mean, that's what you're really getting at is that because the last, what, three generations of Americans really haven't sacrificed much. We're starting to see our generation get chewed up and spit out in the workforce and treated like garbage. But that's not the same type of oppression as what you're talking about in Libya being in a tin can. Sometimes Twitter goes down and that's pretty tough. Or I'm on a plane. I don't have the right on wife. The dudes that served in Iraq in the mid-2000s, you know, in Afghanistan, I know some people that are like, bro, we kicked doors open and killed kids. Like they talk about Fallujah, the Battle of Fallujah.

That seems so terrible. And it's like, where's the media? coverage. It's like we want to, people want to cover it up and be like, no, no, no, candy canes and rainbows. Let them all come. Everybody say hi, dance. Let's dance. You know how many people were killed to create this environment we have? And if we don't protect it, it's going to do that. It's going to become that again. We cannot allow that. Yeah. And then it turns out that one of the people who came here who was invited because he'd worked with U.S. troops in Afghanistan, an Afghani man, came to the U.S. and lived in Washington State and then tried to murder to West Virginia National Guard in Washington, D.C. and did kill the woman.

And we trained that guy. And we trained that guy. And he came here and hated us. And so when you look at this and then you hear about, you know, in in Pakistan, a bunch of Afghans went to Pakistan waiting to get basically a lift to the U.S. after they had been supposedly vetted by the United States by the Biden administration. because they had worked with the U.S., and so their families get to come to and everything. And Pakistan was tired of waiting, and they were like, you all have to go back because you're doing too much terrorism in Pakistan, and we can't have this. So when, you know, we're supposed to be wide open,

our arms are supposed to be wide open, and I think that we are, but I think we do have to be a lot more careful about why people want to come to the United States. Do they want to come to the United States because they want to cast off where they're from. They want to say goodbye to their homeland. They want to come be American. Or do they just want to, you know, live somewhere else for a while? We've seen situations in the UK where people

from Afghanistan go and become refugees in the UK. But then on their holidays, they go home to Afghanistan. What's your refugee status? Like, what do you mean? That guy that you're talking about who shot up to the National Guard, I mean, we created him when he was a teen. It was like, I think, we had to bring him here. I don't think we should have, but they were saying we have to bring him here because he's a liability out there. He was part of a death troop for us. And then he came out here and I think he had some severe PTSD. Like he was a mess. Sure. He should not have been here. And there's more instances like that too of people we've created. And then they come here and just do the kind of the same bad thing that they did over there. Sometimes we talk about a service to get citizenship, some sort

of national service. Well, that used to be a thing too, right? Is if you were in the country, like People who had been enslaved could gain citizenship by fighting for the union. That was like a known way to become a citizen. And that was true. Revolutionary war. You could, yeah, you could get your freedom that way. And also that was true of people who were not Americans. You could come here if you fought.

And I think we still have programs where if you're an immigrant and you're not a citizen, you can fight and earn citizenship that way. You just can't screw around. You said earlier arms wide open. I don't think, you know, it's a fire hose. you need it when you need it when you're building a country and then when you have a porous border, you've got to close off and wait and get to know what's going on because we cannot allow this country to fall to chaos again. It can't, we can't allow it and we shouldn't.

Yeah, I think you're right. And I think that what you're saying in terms of falling to chaos is that I think that's a big concern. And you're right too about putting a big pause on immigration. And that's something that we previously did in the 20th century. We're like, okay, we're good for now. We're going to put a pause on it, you know, put a pin in it. We'll come back to it later. And it does make sense, I think, to have like a very full pause, let everyone who's here, you know, trying to assimilate those people. And if you don't like it, go home. Like, clearly you could go home. Our former border czar was very successful at the controlled collapse through immigration. Like, well, Kamala. You know, like, I went down to Yuma, went down to the border

wall and like, it's like soft TSA. It's easier than TSA. coming across the border and they're giving water bottles and tags for the luggage and a ride and a phone call. And they gave me more of a problem for just being down there and checking it out, just driving around the wall. I think they gave them. Yeah. So speaking of things we've created, problems we've created, we have Stephen Colbert. Tonight is his last episode of the late show. He has been officially canceled by CBS. Tonight says last night. We have this from Business Insider who says that Stephen Colbert's late show exit marks the death of the good celebrity interview. So, yeah, this is very exciting for all of us.

I know also that Jimmy Kimmel, I think, went dark tonight, as did the other Jimmy. What's his name? Jimmy Fallon. Jimmy Fallon went dark tonight. In solidarity. In solidarity. And I guess so that Stephen Colbert gets all the ratings, Jimmy Kimmel was on Colbert the other night and said, everyone watched Colbert's last show and then never watch

CBS again. We've seen, you know, CBS has had its own ins and outs. They've had, they brought Barry Weiss in to try and mellow things out and make everything a little less crazy. I don't know how that is going. But yeah, so the business insider says that the, this is the death of the last interview. Colbert was hired to CBS in 2015 to fill the shoes of legendary comedian David Letterman, who retired after hosting the late show for more than. than two decades. When Letterman was on the air, I will say I watched it almost every night. The guests, wasn't always a big fan of the guest, but I always watched the monologue. Though Colbert's most recent role had been a satirical news anchor, that's 2015, a self-described

poorly informed, high-status, The Colbert Report, he quickly established himself as a worthy successor, blending humor and charm with thoughtful, studied lines of inquiry that coaxed his famous guests to open up. What do you guys think? I mean, this is a guy who media research council, media research center says that he has had like zero conservative guests on. He's really just pushing leftist idea. What do you guys think?

They should have kept Craig Ferguson. He was one of the greatest hosts for late night. I used to love late night. I'm not what it turned into. I love like Letterman. He might have terrible politics. But I also watched him and Conan O'Brien a lot growing up. Conan had slid not on.

It was a great show. But Colbert is awful. I don't think he ever had a good interview. Actually, there was one interview with Joe Biden, of all people, pre being a deep fake and a corpse all the time. There was like this. Well, you know how it was very recently. But there was a pretty like strong interview with him.

It's weird to say. But when Biden was sad about the loss of Bo Biden, which was terrible, you know, I totally understand that. That was actually I thought a good interview. That Biden is long gone. But I didn't see anything. I mean, this is the guy who danced with anthropomorphic syringes during lockdowns. Like, I don't think anything seriously from this guy.

Did you watch the Colbert rapport back in? I did. I did. I've just looked it up. If you look on YouTube after the show or whenever, search Ian Crossland, Stephen Colbert. I made a video to Stephen Colbert 19 years ago to subvert this guy because I thought he was a phony piece of crap that would make this fake, he was a fake far right warmonger, but he was saying things like,

we need to go to war. But it was a joke, but he was saying it seriously to people. And I was like, why are you doing this to the, so I want to like, be like, hey man, you could be a good person. Steve, you still can. I think he's really smart, really intelligent, not necessarily wise, but really, I don't know about your wisdom levels, but your intelligence is high. You're a great actor. You can be very funny, but that doesn't mean you know everything or that you're right. I just remember girls used to send me like Stephen Colbert videos as news. And I'd be like,

but this is a Comedy Central show. You do realize that right. Yeah, exactly. People didn't know it was fake. I could tell there were people that weren't getting it, that they were just being war propagandized by the guy and he thought it was probably getting his jollies off like, oh, I'm so funny, I'm so funny, I'm the anti-John Stewart and it was like, I don't know, I never liked his patterns. Never, never.

What I didn't like about the Colbert report was, and keep in mind, I was like a political activist in college, those were a college Republican. The interviews he would do with the Republican members and senators, they would always be like humiliating, making them actually look stupid. But then the ones with the Democrats, My hometown congressman, Phil Hare, was on, and it was just more of a silly interview.

He actually made himself look dumb and made Phil Hare look like the smart, mature guy. And it's all just subversive. And you said it best about the anamorphic syringes. It's a propaganda show. Even that headline, these are the best interviews. These are great interviews? No, they're puff interviews. There's no tough questions.

There's nothing interesting being said. David Letterman, who we brought up, the great. and wonderful one and only David Letterman, one of the greatest talk show hosts of all time, maybe the best, Johnny Carson. They'd stayed out of politics intentionally, and they would talk about staying out of politics. They would joke on everyone.

If they did mention politics, it would be jokes on everyone. No one was safe. Johnny Carson, maybe it was explicit that this is not the show for politics. This is a comedy show. This is a show to lighten the mood at the end of the night so people can have fun and go to bed.

Bring us all together, right? Getting Democrats and Republicans in the same room, watching the same shows, laughing at each other, it brought us closer. Whereas when you just target one side for humiliation, that's when the divide starts to happen. Yeah, and he has been doing that for 19 years. You're right.

Yeah. These are major shows with billions of dollars behind them, promoting them and putting them on the airwaves. It's all deliberate. Like, I'm so black-pilled. I go back and forth between being white-pilled and black-pilled. I am a Christian. Yeah, maybe, yes.

Most of the time, it's just a gray pill. But these are all propaganda outlets at this. point. Like, there's no real news. They don't, they don't cover the Somalian fraud. They don't cover real news stories that are actually impacting people's lives. And they definitely don't ever call out the real bad guys. They make the good guys the bad guys. It's funny that you're even referring to it as a, like, a news show that's not a news show. Because it's not even supposed to be a remotely near a news show. It's a comedy. I mean, it's supposed to be a comedy. Well, I don't know what's supposed to be, but it has always been a comedy monologue and then

you interview celebrities. That's the show. Yeah, I don't think Conan got political, like, I don't remember anything except for like weird humor that I thought was hilarious. I don't know just jokes like they had jokes everybody. The other thing too that what happens is if you're political and you have guests on and you're a political host then the guest wants to have a good interview and so they'll agree with what you say you know because they're promoting their book or their movie or whatever it is their album and so they'll they'll go along with what you're saying because they want a good reaction from your audience and you're guiding them as to how to do that with your political views. So I think that's a big part of it, too.

What do you think about the announcement that he's going to be directing or writing a Lord of the Rings trilogy piece? I like it. I mean, I think he's a great actor and a brilliant dude. Like Colbert, he's hilarious in the right environment. He knows that world very well. I don't think it's a great idea for him to write that stuff. I'm not a huge end of his writing. He loves that stuff.

Yeah, no, that's weird. A lot of people love it, though, and they could be really good at it. I don't even hate Stephen Colbert. I like, I want him. to succeed that I always have. That's why I made a video response to him 2019 years ago. What do you want him to succeed doing, though? To be a better communicator, to really be real, to be real, not to be a position or a facade

of a guy that thinks a thing and wants a thing that you don't even understand. Like, just break down on camera once in a while for real, man. But he did. Like, he cried on camera once, but it was so, like, fake Mr. Rogers. Was it about COVID? I think it was at the election. Oh, that makes it. It was the election or COVID.

I forget. but it was so put on. It's fake. He was successful as a character, but he failed as himself. Do you guys remember Jimmy Kimmel crying over Cecil, the lion? He cried a lot.

A dentist went on a safari and they shot some lion in South Africa. And he was like literally bawling on TV. I mean, like a breakdown. Like he's like, I don't know if I can do this anymore. I don't know if I can be a mouthpiece for the corporations anymore. Like that kind of like a full-on news.

What's that movie from the 80s where he's like? Network. Network. I'm mad as hell. And I'm not going to take it anymore. One of the greatest movies. I want to see that from Colbert. I want to see something like that

from one of these guys on the mainstream TV show. It's very nice to see that from anybody. I mean, we don't see any of that. We see so much going along to get along. We see so much propagandizing and just re-emphasizing the, essentially the globalist progressive party line, which is something that I am so sick of seeing

because it's all about just controlling everybody. And Colbert dancing around with the syringes was all about controlling everybody, you know? And the thing. too with Kimmel's support right now for Colbert. Like I find it really hard to look at Jimmy Kimmel without, you know, bile rising in my throat after what he said about Charlie Kirk. I just find it really difficult to not just take him seriously, but like feel anything other, feel anything from him other than like just disgust, you know. And a lot of their jokes are based in like a false reality.

So the jokes don't land for a lot of people because they're not based anything that's tangible. I mean, think it is. But they're reading, they have a bad media diet. I think, I'm paraphrasing what Norman Donald said once about, you have to have some kind of love or empathy when you're going after these people or trying to be them, you know, like he was, I think he was talking about a Trump impersonation on SNL, how it kept falling flat because it was all out of hate. Like, you know, you can tell now they have a new SNL. S&L's had some kind of good moments lately. I'm sort of the most angry at the Republicans right now because they've allowed S&L to be funny again. They've had some pretty good moments lately.

That one girl, I don't know her name, she's awesome. She's new. There's a few. Yeah, yeah. They've had some pretty sketches. And they've had some funny jokes at the Republican's expense. For a while, the left was so crazy that you couldn't even satirize it. They even brought back Aziz.

Right. They're like, we will undo the Me Too. Right. Just we need you for catch. That was such a bogus. That was just so boath. An issue with Colbert, like John Stewart made his career. He was a nobody.

John Stewart put him on his show, the Daily Show and turned him into a funny, you know, him and Stephen the other guy from the office, Steve, who I have no problem. Ccarellar. Him and Corell and Colbert were on the day of show. You never hear his politics. He's just funny as well. He's just a hilarious top level A plus-ness actor.

But Colbert went from potentially, like John Stewart still can be pretty counterculture. Like he's smart enough to figure out when he's wrong. And he was anti all the COVID stuff. Yeah, he's like, he's like wise enough to admit it. But, but he's so he platforms this guy, Stephen Colbert. And Colbert's like could be a counter,

like he could really become counter to the media. narrative, but he chose to take the big money and sit with the sharks. Maybe he just doesn't know. Maybe he's like too stupid. Like he does it or too, too dumb. I don't know what the right word is, too oblivious to know what he's doing. Or maybe he just loves it. Yeah, I think it's that. I think him in his writer's room are so ideologically driven that they have to, they think they have to create that kind of thing. Whereas Letterman, you know, they, letterman, we know his politics, but on the show, the writer's room seemed from a distance focused on just good jokes. You know, and absurdity, you know, and that resonated more with people in a long time.

And music, like music, right? He loved drums. So every time there's a great drummer, you always hear Letterman say, love your drums, you know, he loved that stuff. Paul Schaefer. Some of the greatest comedians are drummers, you know, Carson was also a drummer. Oh, interesting. I love that. I was referencing Paul Schaefer, you know, Letterman's number two.

Classic. The phenomenal pianist, you know, one of the great, does Colbert have a music? I don't even know. He had a band, yeah, he had a, I know he started with a band, you know, but I don't, it's not as awesome and interesting as it was for the other band. I know that we're not like picking and choosing all these different late night hosts, but I kind of like Jimmy Fallon a lot. I mean, why?

I just think he's like, yeah. Wonderfully brilliant and I have never heard those words. I have never heard those words. I actually really like his lip sync battles. Yeah, he has the roots. The lip sync battles were great. He never did it for me. Conan was my guy. And Letterman had like the greatest moments in TV

in terms of I love Andy Kaufman. So anytime Andy Kaufman was on, it was great. Joaquin Phoenix doing his own Andy Coffin was great. You know who's the opposite of Stephen Colbert is Bill Maher? Bill Maher was the guy that after 9-11 spoke up about, hey, maybe they aren't totally wrong about what we've been doing to the world. And then they canceled his show politically correct. And he's like, well, that's what I get for speaking the truth. That was a great show. And he is still great. I totally disagree with his take on 9-11. But do you guys see that he is going to be honored at the Kennedy Center? He's going to be getting, like,

what is it, the big Kennedy Center prize? Is it the Mark Twain Prize? I think it might be. That's the big one to do, yeah. He's stuck to it for real. And he's like, he sees both sides. He's these multiple angles. For Steve, either Stephen can't see it or he's, he knows he'll lose his job. I'm wondering what he's going to do that. He lost his job anyway.

I know. Yeah, so what he's doing next is the Lord of the Rings. Well, okay. And CBS is filling in, I think, with some sort of comedy show with like stand up or something. More Big Bang theory. More big bang theory. More laugh track. Yeah.

More signs to say, we should get a sign in here that says, laugh. I mean, just blink it every once in a while. There is one. Don't tell the people. And then there was Chelsea Handler today going, like, lashing out about the Kevin Hart roast. Oh, come on. I thought it was great.

I thought it was funny. That was great. Kat Williams was my favorite part. I was walking around Manhattan last week and people listening to it out loud. Kat Williams part. I'm like, that's awesome. Well, Kat Williams is killed. He's the bomb.

We were talking about doing political comedy. And my first take was like, that sounds like an oxymoron. I think politics is the most unfunny, is the most serious conversation. you can have and the antithesis of comedy. They have no place together. It's nothing but funny. I think politics is so absurd and funny. But real politics, there's no comedy in it.

It's about saving lives. No, it isn't. They tell you that. They don't mean it's about power. It's about power. It's about power. Saving your tribe with power. It's entirely about power and insider trading. And it needs to be subverted through humor.

Mostly, yeah. And we need to make fun of it. Yeah. They need to be roasted constant. I think they should be making fun of themselves a little more. I mean, what's funnier than, you know, rich politicians going out, demanding that everyone tax the rich and then being like, but not, not me. Yeah. I mean, it's, it's funny strange. It's not funny ha ha.

I think it's, I think it can, it's, I think it can, it's not funny ha ha in a good natured way. It's funny ha ha in a, in a black pill sort of way. It's like, it's like, the guys in the military that are killing, you know, in the jungle, killing little kids and then laughing. about it. Like, oh, watch their bodies flop around. It's like not funny, but it might make people laugh, but it's not funny. Should we look at the Chelsea handler and see what she had to say? Here it is. I don't have a lot of, um, I'm 51. So like, I'm pretty secure with who I am. Yeah. I don't care if these guys say that I'm a whore. Like, I'm doing exactly what they're doing, except I'm a woman and not allowed to. And that's real. Yeah, I'm rich, I'm famous, and I'm

hot so I'm fucking people. That's what I'm going to do and I'm going to continue to keep doing that as long as I remain as fuckable as I am so I don't really see the problem. Yeah, no, and I think a lot of other women should feel the same way out there, especially women that I run

into. Yeah, whether you're a famous oh yeah, whether you're a famous or rich those don't apply but like the idea that like what were they going to say about me? They couldn't say anything other than that I'm a whore or my age. I I think that was the other thing that they went in.

And you're like, well, okay, those aren't Jobs. That's not clever writing. And I knew they would be lazy because they do that for a living. And I knew enough about like Tony Hinchcliff and Shane and their backgrounds. I had girls, ex-girlfriends blowing up my DMs that had dated Shane and were telling me stuff about him. So based on that, I was like, oh, these guys are pretty bad.

So you had something on him that you was about you pitiful. Tell us now. What's it saying? It's just everything we know that they're racist, that they're bigots, that they're sexist, you know, that they think they're like invincible, that they've been canceled for being like, you know, Shane got fired from S&L but then was on S&L

years later. So he got fired. So what happened in between those two events? So he believes this is Perra, one of his exes, that he's invincible. He's like, doesn't matter. I can say anything I want. Yeah.

Do you think that? Now, a lot of, like, white comics, they feel there's all that they can say something racist and is more further their career. Well, yeah, they're going to get in with that group of, like, Roganites and that Austin group of Joe Rogan and all of those guys. And I just, you know, like, that's their M.O. Even some girl comics have started to do it to be, like, in with that group. Yeah. Yeah. I was like, they say this racist.

Yeah, because I'm starting to feel that. I'm starting to feel like. is this thing do you think that white comics are racist you're like bro that was a racist question who is this guy have they never watched

this is a guy in a broke t-shirt like have they never seen Richard Pryor on a panel on a dais like dais roasting this is this is not new no it's not and also like when somebody does

a character characterature if you have a big nose they're going to emphasize the nose it's all about surface things so if she's running around like you know doing whatever it is that she's apparently proud of, that's what they're going to

make fun of. You're a walking clan parenthood because I really want to know now. It's funny, she did kind of forget the biggest joke and the funniest line that Shane landed, which is that she went to Epstein's Island. That was interesting that she couldn't remember that third part that they

attacked her over. Right, yeah. She didn't like that. Hot and sexable she is and then she went on to be like oh man, then she was like claiming how Shane thinks he's invincible. Like, Chelsea, if you fall down and do a gutter tomorrow and bust your face up, you're no longer what you think you

are. Like, you're just a fallible hominid like all of us. So get your head out of your ass. No one remembers Chelsea's jokes in the roast. No, well, because she's not funny. She's not funny. I mean, Shane Gillis is funny. Tony Hinchcliff is funny. And the thing about these jokes, no, go ahead.

Well, she can be very funny, but she seems so pissed off all, like the last seven years about stuff. Yeah, she does seem kind of mad. And the thing too about these comics, and I appreciate the new sort of more offensive leaning comedy, because you actually

laugh. You know? I mean, the comedy that we've seen over the past several years, the sort of like, well, comedy, you don't laugh. It's nothing's funny. But you do laugh when it's like, oh my goodness, I can't believe he said that. That's really funny. Go back and watch the old Dean Martin roasts. Right. And they were insane. What's his name?

Oh, what's his name? Dangerfield. Rickles. Yes, I knew it. On Rickles is hard. Like core. That was the best. He was wild. Yeah.

Everyone got it. He would have gone way harder against her than Shane did. Oh, yeah. I'd be whining like this about Shane Gillis. Like, you haven't seen anything yet. No, no, she should go back and watch some Rickles. They forgot about it. I don't watch a lot of roast and I don't watch a lot of post-roost breakdowns.

Do they do post-roast breakdowns? No, this is new because they're coping. All the feelings I have about that roast I got. You signed up for the roast, Chelsea. Like, what are you, why are you complaining about it? You're not going to be invited back to the next one probably. Like you know you're going to get roasted. Like Kevin Hart, you're getting roasted for being black and for being short.

And that's what all the funny jokes are. And I'm going to boys like this. It was hilarious. And he laughed. He was a giant. He was a giant. He gets what the roast is for. Right.

You're supposed to go after that stuff. I also think that there's something. And the ditty parties. They got him on the ditty parties. The ditty parties. I never went to any of those, by the way. Yeah. I didn't, I wasn't cool enough to get invited.

But there's also at the heart of Shane Gillis's humor is actually self-deprecation. Like he slug. like, all right, I'm big fat, white guy who's like, loves Trump. And yeah, I do notice race. I do notice things. Let's just dig into that. And so all of his jokes are actually making fun of himself and helping us make fun of our own selves and get comfortable.

He's like an attack vaccine for the rest of us, right? So like the left is calling us racist and bigots and MAGA supporters. And he helps us not give a shit. Yeah, when he leaned into how he looks like he has Down syndrome, because people were, like, putting a picture with him and a guy with Down syndrome, and he's like, I do look like a guy with Down syndrome. It's so good. I was like, okay, he's the band.

He fits right in in the special knee. Perfect. And Tony with Kill Tony started like, he made a lot of people's careers. Like, that show is one of my favorite shows. I love watching Kill Tony. And he's got people like Cam Patterson who started out on Kill Tony. He's on S&L now, which is probably why SNL has some better moments right now. That's probably why they're doing better.

He's hilarious. Yeah. Yeah, that really is. Oh, Cam Patterson is amazing. I saw him at the Comedy Mothership, and he's incredible. He kills. One of the funniest human beings of all time. And I met him at the Austin airport the next day, and he talked to me for like 10 minutes and was like very personal.

And I love that guy. I didn't know he was on SNL. That's great. He collects rocks, too. Yeah, I lock rocks. Oh, yeah, that guy's awesome. Whenever I see like a celebrity who's like just really good to their fans, I was think of this thing with Barbara Eden. So remember Barbara Eden.

She was, I dream of Jeannie. I don't know if you guys remember. Yeah, I remember. It's old. It's like black and white television. I think it was on Nick and Night. But yeah, I Dream of Jeannie was, Barbara Eden said, she was asked,

whenever you're at a Comic-Con or whatever, when you're at one of these things, you always stay until the last fan has had their autograph or their picture taken. Why do you do that? And she was like, well, because these are my fans. And I wouldn't have a career without my fans. love them, you know, and I always see, when you see celebrities who are, like,

good to their fans, I always think, yeah, that's the Barbara Eden way. That's the, that's the right way to be. One of the best upcoming, maybe not, I think of it. Tim Robinson, you guys follow. Oh, dude. Oh, my God. Alarious. Absolutely. The best in the world. Maybe the best in the world.

I mean, I think you should leave that show. Are you sure about that? Yes. He started off as like a meme. I don't know. He was on SNL. Oh, he was on SNL. And he just didn't take sketches. They didn't use him right. Oh, man. He's a genius. He's a genius. The other guy, Connor, that he works with. I don't know his last name.

They're so funny together. Yeah. So maybe there's like two kinds of humor we're looking at here. There's like the clapping seal where it's like, guy did thing, emphasis, emphasis, emphasis, about how bad it was. But counter that. Applaus!

And people go crazy. And they're like, yeah, the way they say it. And then they're queued to laugh. And like, that's like corporate humor that you see on the... And then there's the other guys that just... You're already laughing because they said the racist word. I'm not going to say it tonight because it's a family-friendly show. But they...

already stick it in you, you know, and you're like, oh my God, I, I just heard that. I really heard him say that. And you're already laughing and, like, crying laughing. And just the, he, they stick in you. Before you even realize that they got there, they penetrate. He's doing it like to me. You guys can't see it at home, but he's actually, I'm feeling violated right now. I saw that.

I'm, yeah, I'm not comfortable. I like that humor more where it's like surprising. Well, Tim Robinson is like an absurdist. Yes. And, like, that's, I love the key and peel sketches as well. And that's kind of like similar, like, wheelhouse. Stee and a bird, page on his head. Tim, uh, Hidecker, who I know people, politic, he's been become very political.

He's doing the onion thing without. Oh, he's good. But he is amazing. Dude, what a funny guy. Tim and Eric, he's been my favorite show, like Tim and Eric's billion dollar movie I watch that so many. It's stupid. Like, it's funny if you accept how stupid it is. I love that.

Even David Cross, I think, like, arrested development. I mean, I'm going off the rails right now. I love Arrested Development. That's one of the greatest shows up there with like 30 Rock. Absurdist comedy. Sometimes just pops into my head when Tobias says, I think I just blew myself. And it's like he'd painted himself blue and it was a blue man group.

And then Jason Bateman's character goes, you know what you do, buddy, is you carry around a tape recorder and you just record yourself for a couple of days. And then you listen back. Lucille. Well, speaking of. crazy, funny things. We have Spencer Pratt, who has been absolutely killing it from, you know, from my perspective from afar in the L.A. mayoral's race. And I think it's because I just watched

Mom Donnie win in New York that I'm really rooting for Pratt. We didn't have a Pratt in New York. We had Curtis Slewa, who keeps running for mayor and is never going to win. He's very respectable man in his own right, but he also has a bunch of cats and he's never going to win. And the GOP like refuses to do anything about New York City. They won't back anybody in New York City. They just decide that it's fine. But Spencer Pratt is really making this great run in L.A. So I thought we should talk about it. We have this from the post millennial. Spencer Pratt reveals how threats, intimidation drove him to the GOP as his L.A. mayoral campaign ads take over the internet. So I wanted to play for you guys this clip of Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt,

who revealed the reason behind his becoming Republican in the deep blue area of California. This is from Thomas Stevenson over at Post-Millennial. And he made this comment as he's been praised for viral political ads. Many of them have been crafted with AI. And I'm not a fan of AI, but in this case, I do think he's been doing a great job with it. And part of my reasoning is that he lives in L.A. Gavin Newsom has been doing such a bad job with the entertainment industry. It's very hard to make things in Los Angeles.

How are you supposed to afford those union rules? So by all means, you know, do the little end run around with LA. But here he is talking about why he became Republican. Why are you a Republican? Well, you want to break some news here? Sure. When I was a hated reality star, I got so many death threats. I had so much security and police and what did they tell me to do?

Get a gun. This is real. I know people don't like guns, but LA was dangerous if you're hated. So I got a gun. My wife got a gun. And then we needed CCWs. The only people that supported a CCW was the Republican. That was what I aligned with my safety, my personal safety, my family's safety.

I know people don't like guns, but when people are threatening your life and your own security is telling you you need to have home protection trained to it's not like just I went to the, you know, go through the proper steps. That was my. That's it. And that was it. And you felt like that party was my. more pro with second amendment.

And I know that's a very hot button, but here's the thing. I'm also going to be the mayor that puts LAPD in front of every school to make schools safe from guns. Right now we have officers to do that. I talk to a very knowledgeable law enforcement. All you have to do is pick one patrol unit and you give them a nice pin that connects to that school, and that's their street. So they add that one.

So that's already part of mine just because obviously I know people on. guns and we need to make everything especially school safe but that is where I connect to and it's once you feel fear and it's real you want to protect your families that's a masterclass in communications that is because he's showing empathy with the people that are going to disagree with him and it's it's so authentic it's so real you really can't argue with someone that's gotten serious amounts of death threats and them wanting to have a gun and wanting their wife to have a gun that was amazing. He's just so fresh and he's so authentic and real. And that's what happens when a city let your house burn down and then won't let you rebuild is you have nothing left to fight for

so you really don't care anymore. I think they've only put up 400 permits for thousands and thousands of homes that have burned down. And you had also, it is deliberate. It is deliberate because you also, what you have is the government wants those people to sell their land to the government so that they can create more government housing and essentially ruin what was a spectacular neighborhood from all accounts to raise families in. Or even worse, Libby. They are just trying to steal it to give to other billionaires and rich people that want that coveted land. I've been to L.A. a bunch. It's one of my favorite parts of the country.

It really, it's got great food, great music. I went to Long Beach, and I decided to listen to Sublime as I'm walking up and down. And it was a life-changing experience. I understood that band. I understood L.A. But it's so sad what they've allowed to have happened to that area. To Malibu? Malibu.

Malybu. Yeah, dude. That was iconic area. California is the one place that I wish I'd taken some time to live in. You know? Yes. It's 100% worth it.

If you ever get a chance to live in California for three years, do it. It's painfully beautiful. It feels different. And the food is so good. It might be the fault line, the San Andreas fault, but it literally like the vibration. It's different. Right? It smells different. I had allergies when I was there.

Pacific. I was only there for like a week. What'd you do? I just, I got really bad allergies. Interesting. It's just so unfortunate. It's more pollany. It's run by demons. Yes. It's such a big state. I don't think it should be one state. I don't think the South can govern the North, and I don't think the North can govern the South, except the water rights. I don't know how they would delineate the water right, because the water's coming from the North.

Well, and now we have the data centers. But I want it, speaking of Arrested Development, we have this post from Jean Parmesan. on. This is one of the Spencer Pratt videos, and I just wanted to share it with you guys. This mayor race is really heating up who you guys voting for. Haven't decided. Same, haven't really been following it. Same. Same. Same. I'm not MAGA or anything. But the city's kind of gone to shit, though, right? Oh yeah. Jessica stepped on a needle at the playground the other day. I'm not mag or anything though. I'm not mag or anything, but have you been downtown lately? Looks like an episode of the Walking Dead. Not that I'm mag or anything though. Spencer

Pratt seems like he has some good ideas. Not that I'm maga or anything. He does seem really angry all the time though. Well they did burn his house down. Also apparently he's staying at the Bel Air Hotel, not the trailer on his property. Well yeah. They burned his house down. Okay, we're all adults here. How about on three, we just say who we're voting for? One, two, three. Spencer Pratt. Yeah. Spencer Pratt. Can you imagine if our wives knew? We're all voting for Spencer Pratt, right? Of course. Obviously. I wish I could vote like yesterday. Yeah. So that ad I thought was just so brilliant. You know, I just thought it's so, good. And he's had so many of these. And all of them seem to go like mega viral, like the one where

Karen Bass was Darth Vader. And they just go around the, you know, they go around showing how terrible things have gotten for just regular people. Yeah, I wanted to say that about what he was saying about why he got a gun and why he became a Republican is this is sort of aligns with what I saying earlier about dudes that went and fought in World War II and that have put their lives on the line. And when you see fear and terror for real, if you think someone is breaking to your house, for the first time, for real, you wish you had a gun and you wish you were trained. So it's, and it doesn't make you a Republican. It's just like, dudes that were, that were leftists in the 1940s would be considered far right

today. Like, they were, they were, everybody was like ready to protect themselves back in the day. It was a huge part of the ethos, you know? My dad had like 14 guns growing up. He was a hunter. Then he sold a bunch of Bocatar's, but I think it. It's just like it's more of a, you become a realist when you're faced with danger.

And things like houses burning down, an entire neighborhood's getting wiped out by fire, people, street violence, things like that. You have to become real, realist. And this guy sounds, I think you mentioned it, very real. He does seem very real, yeah. And you kind of want, like, somebody like this in all of our big cities. He's just a tad unpolished,

which makes him so. perfect. Which I think is okay. It's so good. No, it's perfect. Yeah. It will be worse. It would be so bad if he was a Gavin Newsom type and sounded perfect. Gavin Newsom is a shape-shifting chameleon pretzel man. That no one should trust. He's horrible. Has he lived in isolation for too long? Was he always like this? Because I didn't really know who he was until he was governor. But did he grow up rich? He had a, he had sort of an interesting background. His parents split up when he was young. His dad ran for Senate and I think lost and also what worked for the Getty family. in the Getty Foundation.

So Newsom grew up in the shadow of wealth with a fair amount of privilege. And yeah, I mean, by the time he was, like, what, out of college or whatever, he was opening a fancy wine shop with some prep school types. It's part of the problem is rich kids get great education and they learn how to run businesses.

And, like, poor kids... They don't learn how to run businesses. They're supposed to. They're supposed to. If they get to go to prep schools, they'll be taught how to open a bank account, how to file an LLC, maybe. I didn't even know how to write a check.

in the 80s and 90s. I was never taught how to write a check. I didn't know how to do it because I was a poor kid. I was like a middle, lower class average regular dude. I went to prep school and I didn't learn shit. I wasn't bred for like running companies and being a politician and all that. So when you see people that come from, I don't know if Spencer Pratt's lower class, middle lower class. He was on reality TV.

He made his mark through a reality TV show. I don't know if did he come from money? Are you familiar with his background? I don't know. It's just it kind of breeds realism when you're from down hard times growing up. when you got, you don't get stuff handed to you. You have to work for it from the age of 12. If he gets in, do you think he'll actually be able to make any real change out there?

I like this thing about cops having a cop. No, I think it's all great. I just don't know if anyone can actually make an impact anymore in politics. I wonder about that too, right? I mean, the hardening schools, which is what they call it when you put a cop at schools, in New York City, like when my son was in middle school there, there were cops at every entrance. You couldn't get in. You couldn't get in.

You couldn't get in. You had to go through the police. and I liked that about it. And we didn't have guns in the schools there. Sure, there were metal detectors, but it's like, yeah, it's keeping guns out of the schools. And we have this idea, I think, in America, that we should behave as though we have a high trust society

when we don't have that anymore. Yeah, what was this recent? Oh, something happened. And they're like, but it happened at a gun free zone. It's like just tried and old trope of like, how could these shootings happen? We put the sign on the wall. It said no guns.

Right. How could that possibly? You got to be real, man. You need to protect the kids through force. Yeah, I mean, the force. Compared to Spencer Pratt, Mom Dani is just such a horrific joke, you know? And you look at that and you look at what Mom Dany wants to do, which is he wants the government to raise your kids, starting with two-year-olds in the pre-K, like the 2K program. He wants you to live in government housing because he wants to seize private property and turn it into government housing. And then you're paying rent to the government. He was complaining about how the federal government is saying that if you're on food stamps, you should get a job.

And he was like, well, if the government wants you to get a job, then the government should make more jobs. His vision for America is to have everyone working for the government, their kids being raised by the government, living in homes by the government, shopping and grocery stores owned by the government. There's just no liberty there. And when you look at this idea from Pratt, like one of the crazy ideas he had about fire prevention was, you know, obviously his house burned down. And he's mad about that. And on the debate stage, even said to Karen Bass, like, you're a liar. You burn down my house and my family's house and my friend's houses. Like, this is what you've done.

But one idea he had was a sort of network of everybody's pools so that helicopters could go in, scoop up water from pools, know where the pools were and do that. And that's a community approach, not like taking government and slamming it on top of everybody, but everybody teaming up being like, you know, government is here to. serve us, what can we do for our country and our community, we can share the water in our pools. I actually like that because he's actually focusing on the locale. What LA needs is fire probation. Yes, he's focusing on, yeah, exactly. He's focusing on the little things that LA needs, not like these giant overarching principles that are designed to crush everybody. I've been in Manhattan a lot recently, and it is not a sick feeling. You know, like, it's totally different than it was. Totally different. My grandfather was a cop in the city in the 70s, and I heard all his stories.

after he came back from the Korean War, he became a cop. And in the 70s, the city was on fire. And there was a lot of dead bodies and there was a lot of crime. Bronx was burning for the insurance money. Yeah, the subways now kind of feel like those stories. And I was just walking around. I love that city. I love Manhattan, but it is the Wild West again.

And I noticed how, you know, it was once all of the Gannins and Chinese people selling fake Rolexes, it's now a Haitians. that was an interesting shift to see on the streets. But like the amount of feces on the subway. There's a lot of poop. It was reminding me of what you hear in San Francisco. Yeah. And, you know, I grew up in and out of the city and grew up like just north of it.

And of course, there's always been moments of intense violence and you're running for your life sometimes and get involved in some trouble. But man, it felt like extremely lawless the past few times I've been there. Yeah, I remember there was a moment like sort of in COVID. there was a moment that I felt a distinct shift. Like I remember in February of 2020, I had been out with friends, and I'd probably had a little too much to drink, and I took the subway home,

and I fell asleep on the subway. And I woke up, a homeless person woke me up and said, miss, miss, don't miss your stop. And he was the homeless person that lived at my subway station. Okay, thanks, sir. Like, I appreciate it. You know, thank you.

Next time I saw him, I gave him five bucks, whatever. And I got, I went home, no big deal. And it was probably that summer. I remembered being on the, oh, I was going, whenever it was, it was later. I was going to a party on 4th Street. And I remember standing there, like just waiting to, you know, like walk over and go in. And it felt like the power dynamic in the street had distinctly shifted. And I was the prey.

And the homeless people were dangerous all of a sudden. and they hadn't been somehow previously. Like things had changed to the point where, yeah, things had changed to where the point was like, I was freaked out. And I remember distinctly, I went to, you know, the event. I think it was a magazine party. I went to the event. And I took a cab home and that was 60 bucks.

I think the drugs changing to more like fentanyl has definitely shifted the attitudes of the homeless. I mean, I think we've all run from homeless people on 6th Street in Austin. Sure. It's like the guy with the giant boa constrictor on 6th Street is not the most dangerous thing. I just shook a guy's hand on 6th Street. I've taken the complete opposite approach. I love 6th Street.

But it is, dude, I've seen the homeless chase those women on bachelor parties with the bikes and they're drinking beer. Well, what are those women doing? I mean, come on. Yeah, right. Like, why are they taking those women down 6th Street? So you think that the fentanyl makes them, I don't know a lot about the chemistry, but makes it more aggressive than crack? It's just a different thing, I think.

crack's not good either. I'm just saying, and I don't know if it's fentanyl or not, because fentanyl kind of makes people like lean and turn into zombies. But whatever they were taking, what I've seen in Austin, what I've seen in Manhattan recently,

they're certainly on drugs and they're certainly more aggressive. Is there more homeless people too? You have a better... It seemed like there was more homeless people for sure in Manhattan. And I couldn't believe the subways. It's not like it's always been clean.

I've never seen poop on a New York subway I've had people... I remember going to get like, with my wife at a sonogram when she was pregnant, right? for our first and a guy came on the train was like, I want to chop your head off. What?

It's just normal though. It was just like, oh, it's fine. I was for the all that threat and I could take them. It's all good. We got this. But the ship, there's a ship like you're saying. It felt different.

Everyone's now the prey. And you feel like the authorities aren't really going to do much. You're kind of looking the other way, which reminded me of when I was in Yuma, looking at them looking the other way from people crossing the border illegally. So I have this one last story

that I want to share with you guys. A little point of pride. We have this out from the post millennial, but it's actually about human events. breaking, President Trump endorses human events, Kenny Cody for Tennessee House is a maga warrior. And I would like to say congratulations, Mr. Kenny Cody. He's terrific to work with. He's our opinion editor at human events. He is running for office for Tennessee's 11th State House District. You know, I don't know much about Tennessee's 11th, but I do know a lot about Kenny, and I think he is a

terrific guy. And here is what the president had to say. It is my great honor to endorse Maga Warrior, Kenny Cody, who is running to represent the fantastic people of Tennessee's 11th State House District, a very successful schoolteacher, civic leader, conservative journalist, and activist. Kenny has dedicated his life to serving his community in the statehouse he will fight tirelessly to promote East Tennessee's mountain values, grow the economy, cut taxes and regulations, advance made in the USA, champion American energy dominance, stop migrant crime, strengthen our military veterans, promote school choice, safeguard our elections, and, defend our always under siege second amendment. So that's terrific. Kenny is a great guy. He's also a high school history teacher, which is cool. And I really appreciate him giving back and I appreciate the president taking notice. Double, double everything you just said. I have known Kenny for a while. I've met him off of X and I ran into him at Trump's victory party in 2024. And he is one of the most sincere people. Kenny, I told you I would support you, and I totally forgot. I literally just made a donation on your website.

So hopefully we can get you across the finish line. He is incredible. He's a very good man. What's the website? Hold on. I just did it. Kenny Cody for Tennessee House? No, vote Kenny Cody.com. Here's what Kenny had to say about it. I am so honored to say that our campaign has now been endorsed by the president of the United States, Donald J. Trump. Mr. President, it is the honor. of a lifetime to have you endorse me in our race. I've been a loyal supporter of President Trump for nearly a decade now and I plan on continuing to be if you send me to Nashville

as your next state representative. History teacher. Does he know about the history of communism and like is he well studied? Oh yeah, he's really good. He's us. I mean he's, he's one of us. He loves this country. He knows what I. Dude, history is so important. I don't know if you guys go crazy

for it, but I'm kind of obsessed with learning about the faults and the failures in human past. You have to. putting yourself into the minds of a Roman soldier walking up the hill, like getting ready to get a spear thrust into your gut, like every moment. Like what these guys had to go. Yeah, no, I'm sorry. What's that? No, keep, go ahead. I finished my thought.

Oh. We wanted to hear the more of the guts spilling out. It was brutal. I fell on my knees and I wished for my mother and my daughter and my wife and I just remembered Rome, Viva Rome. I think it's important when you read history to read old history. Like, I don't mean old in terms of, um, when the events happened. I mean old in terms of when it was written.

Like recent history, I think, is so fabricated and overwrought to make all of America just seem racist and terrible and the biggest evil that ever existed. So I like to read history that has been written like, you know, pre-80s kind of thing. I agree with you. You have to also keep in mind

how everyone is ideologically driven and throughout human history. So like Jeremy Ryan Slate, we've had him on the show a few times. We've been on my show a bunch. he's the Rome guy and we talk about how like even things like Hannibal taking elephants you know to fight the Romans that might not be real because the Romans like to do this thing where they're writing about their enemies in ways that make them look stronger and crazier

you know because there was no written history from Carthage interesting or in Gaul closer you get to like the original documentation like there's a guy uh author named Frank de Cotter that has like just recently like as soon as the Chinese records of what actually what they'll let you know happened like firsthand accounts of like the Great Leap Forward came out he was able to get a hold of them and he just kind of

straightforward factual what happened. There's no opinion really I mean any normal person wouldn't have like. It's so crazy too watching history change like I remember the Tiananmen Square massacre. I remember like watching it happen on TV

and now it turns out that if you grow up in China you don't even know about it Yeah. Yeah. I just censor entire history. Yeah. I get wicked concerned about people telling us that the fake, fake history, fake history. Like, what a powerful ability.

If you had total control of the human narrative, would you fake any of history to get people to do what you want? So North Korea does. They have fake America's bad history, like propaganda all over their country, like saying that we did all these horrible things. So they all hate us. Maybe this Kenny, Kenny, what's his last name? Cody. Cody. You guys know him real well.

Maybe any Cody could come on the show someday. He would be great. He would be very entertaining. Yeah, he should totally be on. Ask him about history. Yeah. He would be a great person to have on the show. Yeah, I totally think that's great.

What other history is fake? All of it. All of it. Sorry. What about like... You have to just assume most of it is fake to some degree. Depending on who won the war, if you think they even won the war, you know, who they absorbed. What about if there even was a war?

Do you remember that evil and wah books? scoop when the journalist shows up in the war zone and he's like, I'm here to report on the war and they're like, yeah, we're just making it up. There's not really, there's, I've heard this theory that Charlemagne, who you guys were talking about earlier, Charlie, where the word Charles comes from means, what does it mean? Free man. Free man comes from Charlemagne, Charles, King Charles, was all made up by the Holy Roman Empire, by the Roman Empire to create a Holy Roman Empire that has always been, never questioned it. The year was 1,000 AD. This great man had unified it for you. and now the land is ours under this king

and that it was all just crafted story, which is bizarre. I don't know. I don't know if it's true or not. I don't know how to... I think Americans also have a real obsession with authenticity. You know, I think that as a people, one of the things that characterizes us

is that we're always trying to dig down to the bottom and find the real seed of everything. Whereas I think other cultures like French culture is happy to absorb and tell the stories in sort of a more skipping along the surface kind of way. Does that go back to the Greeks? Was that a Greek thing, too, to get to the root of truth? I don't know.

I think, I mean, I think probably there's stuff like that in all of the, you know, cultures or whatever, but I think that with Americans, I think we are obsessed with authenticity. Part of it is because we've become somewhat invincible because of free speech. So it's like, if you're wrong, it's okay. It doesn't undermine your entire society. Yeah. I mean, I believe in objective truth.

But you can look at, like I wrote a story once about it. I knew a guy who was fixing a wall on a cemetery in West Point, New York, and accidentally hit a casket that popped up out of the ground. And it was the casket of a lady named Margaret Corbin, who was a revolutionary war hero from our area in New York. It's wild. And so while the casket popped up, they were like, I guess we should study the bones. And turned out, you know, they have a giant plaque for her. She's got great real estate in the cemetery right on the road.

And it turned out to be like a guy. The skeleton was a man from like the, like, the, 1900s, early 1900s. And so I was writing the story about it trying to find the truth, but you see how they manufactured a myth. So we're obsessed with authenticity, but we're also obsessed with myth. Right. And Margaret, I think, is a myth, even though you can see there's gas stations aimed after her in Jersey. Everyone has their own Margaret Corbin or Molly Corbyn. And I'm watching, going through the records at the historian's office from when they initially interred her there, that the daughters of the American Revolution, a local church,

and West Point were all constructing through letters I was reading her history. So like, they were like, was she from Ireland or was she from Pennsylvania? And like, well, let's just agree on this. So we have this whole thing. And there's like an economy around Margaret Corbyn to some degree, but a lot of it is fake. Yeah, I think I think that I'm obsessed with myth. I mean, Atlantis is my favorite story of all time. But that's why, but I'm also obsessed with truth. And that's why the COVID thing was so bitter for me as an American. I'm so used to figuring out what's real so that we can move forward in a healthy manner that when they would say things that turned out not to be true about this. And it's like they were like they were creating fake history in

real time. And it was so the rest of the world almost seems to just be be bowing down and playing along. And maybe there's because their governments were built to do that. But we have this glorious opportunity to speak up and to to demand and like just smash the ideology to get to the root of it. What do you think about myths and legends being as essential as anything true? I think it's really important. Like my favorite myth that I've obviously passed

on to my children is the moon landing. Okay. I'm kidding. Wait, wait, wait. My mom gets really passionate about this. I hope you're being serious. I'm hope you're being serious. Don't they have the reflectors on the moon? That's propaganda from Big Moon. Don't believe that crap.

John said that is an astronaut graveyard? Alex believes there is a moon. Do you think that Astronauts got launched there over and over and got hitting it. I think something's up there, but I don't think is what they say it is. What about NASA saying they're about to build this moon base? NASA is a Satanist operation. It was sort of by Nazis. Literally started by Nazis and meth heads and like Jack Parsons, who was a demon worshipper.

Yes. It was started by Satanists. Yes. Jack Parsons and the jet engine. Yes. The co-founder of JPL was literally worshipping demons with Crowley. So was. And we hired Werner von Braun after World War II who made the V2 rockets to start NASA.

Is that because they are a Satan worshipping organization. Were they secular? Or were they? No, they were meth heads worshipping demons. That's why we still name rockets after demons. Order of the Thlema, whatever. Yeah, I forget. Like, Crowley was talking to demons and stuff.

And NASA still does rocket launches on, like, anniversaries of Crowley talking to demons, and those rockets are named after Egyptian gods of chaos. The Beatles were, like, close with Crowley, Led Zeppelin. Like, I don't, that's so weird. Like, why would you want to be? Scientology guy.

Well, Scientology is its own. What was up with Pralley? What was his thing? So the British journalists or the British press called him the wickedest man in the world. But he was an overt demon worshipper, did tons of drugs, had these like sex spell orgies. But he really influenced music. And there are all these songs. Black Sabbath has a whole song, Mr. Crowley.

It's dedicated him. on the Beatles Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club band It's worth saying so I know Alistair Crowley is on the cover

and there's a picture actually of them setting up the shot for it and Hitler is to the side like they were going to try and put Hitler in it's a dark world there's a really cool like seven hour documentary on this

that I think everyone should watch just out of interest it's called they sold their souls for rock and roll and it's like some Christian pastor from the 19th is doing this, but it gets deep. Like the Satanism stuff in Hollywood

and the music industry is very deep. Is this why they say sex drugs and rock and roll and they put them in a bucket? So, okay, rock and roll, the name actually, the term was a term for sex when it came out. They were, they viewed the music they were producing as sexual. The Ramones, when

they're piling in the backseat, do, do, generate, and steam, that's a song about having sex in the bag of a car. It was all part of the sexual revolution. They were trying to break down all of our institutions, our norms and... That's a fun song, though. It's a great song. I listened to it. It used to be my wake-up song.

And the demonology... Isn't it Blitzkrieg pop? Yeah, Blitzkrieg, Bob. Yes, yes, yes. Along with breaking up the society's puritanical abhorrence of sexuality was then the demonology, like, we're going to break up the obsessive with Christianity. Was that why they were just being counterculture to be counterculture? Yeah, well, I think there's probably a lot of reasons for it, but obviously, like,

breaking down sexual norms and rules around that. Like, Christians actually were the first ones to really make sex, like, respectable and good. We were the first ones to actually really come out and say, actually, this whole homosexuality thing actually isn't good. This should be within marriage. Christian teaching on sexuality is actually very beautiful. You know, disruption of the concubine system was probably a good thing. You know, a man with he had his wife and his four concubines or whatever.

really disrupted. I mean, there's more slavery right now in the Middle East than there ever was during the transatlantic slave trade. And there's also more domestic slavery in the United States than anyone is aware of it all. You were talking earlier about those bracelets with the young girls being trafficked across the border. Some of those bracelets say exactly where those girls are going to be trafficked to, and it's nowhere pretty. I meant only that Christianity's like adherence to monogamy kind of disrupts that vile. I don't know if polygamy's vile. I don't know. Take your poison, whatever you. Well, it's polygamy is illegal, but polyamory is legal in places like Somerfield, Massachusetts. Polyamore just means having sex with a bunch of people. Why do you know that? That's so specific. I know that because I grew up outside of Boston, and we saw a story a couple of years ago about how they were trying to say that polyamory was fine in Somerville, which is a very progressive town. and their reasoning was that when you had a thruple renting an apartment, the people who were part of the thruple, if one of them, if one of the, if the, if the leaseholder died, the other members of the thruple should get to keep the apartment because of polyamory.

So, yeah, I mean, it was, at post-millennial, we tend to cover, like, I try to, I want to cover the weirdest stuff that's happening so that people know about it, you know? and I feel like a lot of my job is to like bring the weirdest stuff to the top. Like this is what local leaders are emphasizing in Portland, in Somerville, in Los Angeles, you know. Isn't polyamory just loving a bunch of different people? No, it's polygamy except not Mormon. But not you're not actually getting married. You're just having sex with a bunch of people? Well, they're trying to legalize it, right?

So polypolligamy was made illegal in the United States to pre-apeutic. protect women and girls from exploitation, right? Okay, seems reasonable, right? Especially when you have a Judeo-Christian background and you say monogamy is the best form of family building blocks. The difference is legal. Yes. So polygamy is a legal institution. Polyamory is just like, hey, we're just kind of dating. Like a common law? It's not an unofficial or, you know, yeah. Yeah, like common law. I could go on and on. I just want to say, in terms of weird news, I would like, to amplify this message happening right now in Japan. Are you guys aware of the bear attacks and that Japan can't make enough robot wolves to fight

the bears right now? Really? So, and they're even trying to make handheld robot wolves for Japanese school children right now. Haven't there been like bear worship in Japan? Wasn't this like the wolves? Part of their pagan religion, I believe it was worshipping bears. Might be. I just, I really do worry about that.

And the wolves have all gone extinct in Japan. and they've sent the military and to fight the bears but they don't have enough I guess so they're building robot wolves and they have red glowing eyes are really cool they should import some American wolves

like we're bringing our wolves back a great export we should have yeah but then you gotta worry about them if they get you big robot wolves are better because you can shut those down hopefully ideally well yeah ideally right I don't know if you can shut down the road what if what about when the

robot wolves meet you know open AI and then suddenly there's some sort of like vague sentience. I'm actually worried about amplifying that message because there's also at the same time colossal biosciences is de-extincting dire wolves. And I could see them eventually putting

dire wolves in Japan to fight the bears. What I think would be crazy if they start de-extincting massive sea monsters? Well, they're working on the saber-tooth tiger right now, the woolly mammoth and the moor, which is like a giant bird. And they just hatched an egg, an artificial egg. Bad idea.

All of them are bad ideas. Sure, they're all bad ideas, but really bad. Not if you can ride one. A giant bird that can like, you know, dive down and just start picking up our children out of the backyard. Would you rather fight, like, giant rabbit dyer wolves or robot wolves? Rabbit wolves? Rabbit wolves? No, I said rabid, but I'm down for either.

Because I think a rabbit wolf could be a good pet. It's like a new cryptid. Jump super high? Yeah, a rabbit wolf. I'm against all of them. But you have to pick one. The Netflix series is going to be rabbit wolves. You don't have to, but I'm asking you, please.

If I have to pick one of the organization. You'd rather kill the animals than the robots. Yeah, I want to work with them, yeah. If I have to fight in that war, which I do imagine. You can poison them, you can starve them. The robots are going to have armor. And they're going to have guns.

Yeah. They're going to have, like, and they'll have better vision. And they'll have supernatural vision. Yeah, heat track you. We're in for it. We're in for, we have Kamikaze dolphins now, and the Soviets are taping

hyperdermic needles of poison on the dolphin noses, sharks with lasers. I hear we have the best kamikaze dolphins. the best. According to Marco Rubio, I think we have the best in the world. I don't know. It's bad, but we shouldn't be de-extincting anything is what I want to make sure. Everyone understands. What about the duck-billed platypus?

Isn't that thing extinct? That is like a spawn of Satan. You don't like it? I think it's a leftover crypted from like an ancient technologically advanced civilization. A wet feet? Left over. Why does that exist? It's not extinct. Did you guys hear about the

giant pigs in Japan? No. So in Fukushima, right, where they had the nuclear meltdown. They have like a robot trying to go out. No, they had a nuclear meltdown in Fukushima because of the earthquake and the tsunami, and then they evacuated the area. But there was farmland in that area. And so they just left their pigs.

And the pigs escaped and have been wandering around, as you would if you're a pig trapped in a nuclear wasteland. And they have been mating with the wild boars. I know. But the thing is that wild boars can have. baby pigs like once a year, but domestic pigs can have pig lit babies all the time. So through the maternal line, what has happened is now the boars can reproduce constantly all year and they are turning into giant pig boars.

I'm just glad this isn't like a Godzilla thing, right? Not yet. Not yet. Because you know, in Chernobyl, there's actually cancer resistant wolves now from the effects of Chernobyl. Those are cool too. We should use those in Japan. We basically, we owe the Japanese

a defensive pact at this phase if they need help against them. Yeah, we will drop an atom bomb on your bears. Yeah, get the helicopters. We need Blackhawks over there patrolling these bears. We need to protect these people. Or we could just pick up the bears and put them somewhere else. They have not very much land and we have a lot. It would be like in the water. Now they'd swim to shore. Well, I mean,

there was this book by Kobo Abe called Secret Rendezvous where it turns out in the book, it's fiction. Kobo Abe is actually spectacular if you guys are interested in reading some wacky Japanese fiction, which I like so much better. Anyway, that's a different story.

But anyway, Kobo Abbe had this story, Secret Rendezvous, about how the government is breeding human beings that can survive underwater. I believe it. So that when, you know, when Japan floods, they're all still fine. Yeah, they actually have, they developed this about 15 years ago, an injection where you can inject, oh God, what is it into the body, into the bloodstream. And then it makes it so your oxygen, your body carries oxygen, like, you only have to breathe once every 10 minutes. This is like 15-year-old tech, too.

Is that methylene blue? No, I don't think so. Aren't these these like Polynesians who can go fishing and... That's because of evolutionarily. They swim and they hunt underwater so they could go underwater for eight minutes, six minutes at a time and hold their breath. And now they're building technology on top of that. It can let your common men. and hold his breath. I don't know if it helps you run a lot longer or what. Man, I should find that story. I've been taking methylene blue every morning, and it is the best. Your tongue is blue.

It sounds weird and creepy. It is, but RFK Jr. was promoting it. Sure. Essentially, it was a dye that they would give you so that they could do better, they could see your blood vessels and your scans and all that. But what they found is that one of the unintended effects of it is that it allows your blood to carry more oxygen. And it fights against cancer.

And it's a new thing. It's probably makes you less tired. You're much less tired. And you're much more energetic. Bill McMorris and I have been just taking it every morning. And I wouldn't be able to. On the weekends, I don't take it. And I'm like, drain.

Alex Jones loves it. It's great. He talks about it all the time. Yeah. Undo do the damage produced by seed oils. It might. I was doing some deep research on it. And I think COVID also was causing the body's red blood cells to not be able to

No, Brett Weinstein actually corrected me. I used to think that they weren't able to transport oxygen as good because of the COVID. They thought it was that you weren't getting enough oxygen to the lung, but it was because the transport mechanisms were being disturbed. So that maybe it could help counter that. I'm not sure exactly. I'm not a doctor. Don't get any of my eyes.

The only side effects are you have a blue tongue for like the morning and then you pee blue. And if you don't pee blue, that means there's something wrong in your system. Are your eyes turning more blue? No. No. I did, I've taken it once. I just dripped it on my tongue. I was like, damn.

Oh, it tastes terrible. You got to water it down. Oh, so it's bad tasting on top of everything else. It's real strong. It's potent. It's weird. I'm going to see if I'm going to pee blue. Okay.

Well, we are going to read some of your super chats and rumble rants. But first, we're going to have a word from our sponsor. We got a great sponsor for you, my friends. It is backyard butchers. Good steak, huh? The Secretary of Agriculture publicly warned that Americans, America's consolidation, consolidated meat supplies a threat to the country itself. Think about that. Just four companies control the majority of America's beef and the largest is foreign owned.

It's not a conspiracy, my friends. It's national food security. Here's what most people don't realize. A single pound of conventional grocery store ground beef can contain DNA from hundreds of different cattle. Yeah, ugh. That's true. So what's the solution? As Americans, we have to return to tradition.

Check it out at Backyard Butchers American tradition, American meat. Okay, guys, we are back. And I'll read some of these super chats.

I'm going to read the ones that are not mean and weird. So, you know, just be aware of that. This is from Sylvan Monk. Breaking News. Tomorrow is the last day to submit public comment for the FCC to apply harsher ratings for kids shows pushing LGBTQ content. I just found out about this. And the pro-LGBQ side is winning. Yeah, I think that happens a lot when you have public comment period.

People don't even realize it. They're not well publicized. And Sylvan Monk goes on to say, see the variety article, Trump's FCC wants input on whether transgender and gender non-binary TV programming is appropriate for children. I don't know how you even ask that question. Like, that seems like an obviously, no, it's not.

We're not doing porn for kids. We're not doing this. Like, why would we do any of this weird stuff? I think the whole LGBT stuff targeting kids is just so straight from the pits of hell. We all grew up. I mean, we're all millennials, or late stage millennials, at least. But we didn't have this stuff.

I didn't know a single trans kid. I don't even think anyone in my class knew what trans was. But all, this is, I think ultimately it's the result of the sexual revolution in separating sex from procreation and family. Sex is now just a fun thing you do if you want to. And now people aren't even having it. Like the teenage pregnancy rate is like plummeted, which fine. But that's not because kids aren't getting together, which is sad.

Which is sad. Yeah, I posted something the other day. Somebody was complaining about something and I said, you know, teen pregnancy used to be real trendy. You know? Yeah, I participate in that trend. I'm very proud of that. That's actually my best kid I have is the one I got in high school. Really?

That's true. I don't know. I hope she likes politics, but she's more. to music. She's going to be a teacher. She's going to be a... Yeah, you know, I have one child. I had him, you know, later in life. And, I mean, I was married for, like,

I don't know what, like 12 years before I had a child. And, like, I'm kind of like, that was so dumb. I should have had kids, like, when I was in my early 20s. This eighth kid is kicking our ass. It's like, it's not because he's number eight. Like, actually, number eight is easier because you've got this, like, First of all, kids love hierarchies. They love enforcing the rules on the younger ones.

So once you establish the family culture and the ecosystem, it self-reinforces. It's because I'm 39 and my wife's 40. And we just don't have the energy that we did when we were in our early 20s. No. And it seems, yeah, sometimes I wish like, oh, I should have had kids when I was like 23. Yeah. Yeah, I was like, I wanted to wait until I was older to have more money and be more stable. But then I was like, but now I want to be 80 with like a 60-year-old kid and a 40-year-old

grandson and a 20-year-old great-grandson. I'm 47 with no kids yet. So like I'm going to be 100 with like a 60-year-old kid maybe or a 50-year-old kid. I mean, if you're lucky, right? Yeah, that's if things work fast. I hope for grandkids. And it's like, oh, I don't know, time could be running out. No, you'll get great.

So what were you got, Mr. Superchap, but are you saying people should loosen up and get banging? Oh, yeah, I think we're always, I think we're always saying that. But no, what we're actually saying is we're getting beat. by the public comments. So the FCC has put this regulation out there for public commentary that any children's programming that has LGBTQ content has to have a warning on it. And so the left is flooding the zone on this and all the comments and we're losing. So we got to get our people making these public comments. Yeah, we got to go to the FCC site to make some public comments against LGBTQ IAPH-6-2 spirit plus.

You got to go. Yeah, that's what it is. Yeah, that's what it is now. Dubious Prime something says, so the old saying of think of the children is less about the children and more about pocketing resources for children that tracks. Well, it certainly tracks in Minnesota

and probably Washington State and California. The Spencer Fencer says Thousands of illegal children were found as slave labor on farm fields Literal plantation slavery all over again This is what real Democrat policy is That seems about right This one says from real war pig I fought in Fallujah Ian

I said this one's directed Tell me about it I fought in felujah Ian We did not just kick indoors and kill kids Dude. Oh, is there more? I don't know. It says W.

asterisk. So I didn't say that that's all that they did. And maybe you didn't. But my friend said, and she said, we kicked doors in and kind of left it open, but talked about families being there and doing a lot of horrible things to those people. And that was, you know, it's anecdotal. Not every troop that went through that. Everybody's experience is different.

And war is hell. It was not part of God's plan. It is, there's terrible shit that happens in war, and we all know it. And I don't think, I don't think you say anything wrong. The guy who said war is hell also, Sherman, General Sherman, who did the March of the Sea, also had people killing freed slaves. You know, this is the Union killing freed slaves, because they were upset with them following them to the March of the Sea.

And the Union General, I don't know if he was a General, but the Union General in charge of that was also named Jefferson Davis, oddly enough. That bizarre. That is bizarre. Jefferson Davis' wife wrote a really fascinating memoir. It was like memoirs of a Southern Bell. And in it, she talks about how when they were just like, you know, part of the South, but it wasn't, you know, whatever, secessionist.

As yet, they would just go to parties in Washington. She talks about, like, the whole social scene there. And I think that's really interesting. Sylvan Monk is really on about this FCC thing. public notice FCC Media Bureau seeks comment on TV rating system to empower parents. Submit your public comments to support docket 1941 by tomorrow night, make FCC TV ratings harsher for kids' shows pushing LGBTQ content. So everybody who's interested in that, or even if you're not,

you should probably just get on that. You'll make Sylvan Monk very happy. Oh, this is an amazing one. My son, Tobias Michael, was born yesterday morning. We were blessed with an easy, natural home birth. I can't wait to introduce him to our chickens. Congratulations. Greater Bob.

Very brave to do a home birth, by the way. Thank you, Greater Bob. Our third was a home birth. Is it? That was incredible. Yeah? So good. Yeah.

Was it like a water birth? Yep. So here's where I think it's kind of appealing is, I don't want to get so morbid, but it's actually a beautiful death. My dad died about five years ago, and it was in our home. He died in his bed. surrounded by all of it. He's, you know, and he also 10 kids.

So he's surrounded by all 10 of his kids. That's how he died. So, like, that's, birth is, being in that room, I don't know if you guys have been in the room when someone dies, but it is, it's sacred. It's, um, it's quiet.

It reminds, I've been in the delivery room eight times, and, uh, it reminded, it's like the opposite of that. You're waiting and waiting and waiting until that moment. And, um, they rhyme. Yeah, that's for sure. Birth and death. With rhyme.

Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. It's kind of think about death. Yeah. I've been thinking a lot about death. Yeah.

Memento Mori. I got an actual shiver when you said that. It wasn't like I got goosebumps. Like from the bottom of my core, I just got a big, big. Yeah. Yeah, you were saying. You live a better life when you think about your death. And you called that Memento Mori, you mentioned that?

Yeah. It's the remembrance. You remember that you're going to die. You know, it's like the guy holding the skull, but Hamlet? Well, the saints used to keep skulls on their death. When they were writing. Poor Yorick, I knew him well. I knew you.

No. Yeah, I think that was Horatio digging that up, wasn't it? Or was it Hamlet himself? No, that was Hamlet. Hamlet with the skull. Thinking up his buddy's skull? Well, Yorick. Yorick was the court jester.

Was that right? Who's the jester? Yeah. I was in that play. Yeah. Sick. I was wondering how y'all knew so much about this. I've not well read a lot of Shakespeare.

Also fake, unfortunately. Sorry, guys. Shakespeare? It was a system of people. I think it was a network, like Banksy. Like Brecht? I think wrecked was more of a system of people than Shakespeare. I think when people talk about plays being a system of people,

what they don't understand is how theatrical production works. In a lot of ways, every play is a system of people because you have your draft, you bring it into your team of actors. Your actors are awesome. That's why they're your actors. You bring it into the director. You do a read-through. Everyone's like, oh, what if I did this?

What if I did this? And then you're like, yes, I will put that in. And then the director says, what if they came in from over there instead of over there and there was a tree and you're like, yes, I will put that in. So every, I don't think that makes it fake that it's Shakespeare. I think that just makes it part of the way that, that's part of the theatrical tradition. That's what Brecht did too. I heard that it was like a British royal that, or a Duke or something that wrote what Shakespeare, but the king or queen would have had him killed if they knew that he was writing, talking trash about the monarch, the monarchy. So

they had to use a pen name and they made up this character, William Shakespeare. And I studied the guy and people were obsessed with him, but they still thought that that was possible. Well, the plays are great. Whoever wrote him. Yeah, 12th night. That was my second play that I was ever in. I played Festi the Clown. It was a good one.

I was not. Come back onto the show as Festi the clown. He's like the wise fool. I try to do that on this show. Perfect. I hope I'm pulling it off. He's breaking the fourth wall so hard right now. Okay, I want to read some of these.

Are these the Rumble Rants? Yes. Yes. Yes. But I didn't know where they were. Sorry, guys. beautiful babies being born in Timcast tradition need to be reminded of the free $1,000 payments being given out on the Trump account's website. There are also yearly Trump 401Ks

for low-income people never before. I agree with you, Mr. Rumble Rant person. What is your name? Thinker for Life. You're totally right about that. I think this is such a great initiative and the initiative where you can start a little fund for your kid and the government matches of $1,000. That's so great. That is a good use of my tax dollars. I'm very happy about that use of my tax dollars. Also, the 401K is for people who have low income. This is how you build wealth, right? And we've had so much progressive freakouts about, like,

how, you know, the poor people can't build wealth or whatever. And this is how they do it. This is how you can build wealth. I think that's great. Stephen Crowder did an expose on the dozens of Chinese-owned pot farms in the U.S., several in Oklahoma alone. Yeah, well, you know, we should probably not have those. Who is that?

Was that a Rumble rent? Oh, yeah. The Patrick 13. Patrick. The Patrick. I got you, Patrick. Am I doing this right, Carter? Yeah, yeah.

We all could make a thinker for life again. Thank you, thinker. We all could make a huge difference if we consistently pushed Randy Fines new bill which bans foreign-aligned citizens like terrorists, Talib, and Omar. Well, if what you're saying is that people who hold federal office should be born in the United States,

I think that's a great idea. Of course, with one point, something. million Americans being raised as Chinese. I don't know that, I mean, I feel like that ship has sailed to a certain extent because all you really have to do is sneak in, have a kid raised them somewhere else. I think it's 1.15 million. Oh, my gosh. It's a lot.

In China. In China. Being indoctrary into their system and their values and their morals. I do not understand why Congress doesn't shut down that industry. Oh, surrogacy and IVF? No, the birth to. tourism. Yes, but also the birth tourism.

IVF is dark too. I know friends that have benefited from that, but the surrogacy stuff. But it's not just the surrogacy. It's the birth tourism. Like there's places where they advertise to Chinese. That's a good place to start, I think. Come have your baby here in the Northern Mariana Islands. Should I do more of them?

Just one, and then we can do. Which one? This one, the purple one right there. The purple one? Jolly 1976 says, Libcast, I think we need to workshop that name. What is this website? We are getting all of the articles from tonight.
