Starting point is 00:00:00 Over this weekend, we got word that there was potentially a third assassination attempt on Donald Trump. But now we're hearing it may be a hoax. The Trump campaign is saying they do not consider this to be an assassination attempt. And the man who was arrested said he's a big Trump fan. And actually, I think he's like a caucus member of some sort. So, seems to be not the case. But we'll break this down because it's still a very strange story. The sheriff who arrested this guy is also a Trump supporter.
Starting point is 00:00:24 So maybe it's an issue of sheriff got worried because we're all worried about Donald Trump's safety. Sees a guy he thinks is weird, panics, says, I think it's an assassination attempt. The guy who gets pulled over is the guy with a gun who's a Trump supporter. His story is very, very strange. We'll talk about that.
Starting point is 00:00:38 Then we got this huge story. J.D. Vance talking with Martha Raddatz on ABC News. And he says, are you hearing yourself? She tries to defend and downplay the Venezuelan gangs taking over apartment complexes by adamantly defying J.D. Vance and saying, oh, this is only a handful. Ladies and gentlemen, J.D. Vance strikes back saying, are you hearing yourself? And I got a couple of stories for you from The New York Times and from NPR when they said this isn't happening. There are no migrant gangs taking over apartment complexes. Now they're saying it's only a few. Absolutely insane. Bill Clinton came out and said
Starting point is 00:01:16 Lake and Riley's death probably would not have happened if Trump won. How about that? This is a wild, wild time.

Starting point is 00:01:48 And if you're listening on Apple Podcasts or any other podcast platform, then leave us a good review. That's really, really important. It really does help. Joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more is John Joseph. What's going on, brother? Thanks for having me. Thanks for coming. Who are you?
Starting point is 00:02:01 What do you do? Was the lead singer for the Cro-Mags for decades and author, compete Ironman and all kinds of stuff. There you go. From New York City, born and raised. Yeah. In the hood. It's a very humble intro over here. Just do some stuff. He's a guy. He plays some music. He's a very humble intro over here. Just do some stuff.
Starting point is 00:02:25 He's a guy. He plays some music. He's an Iron Man. He plays in the Cro-Mags. And you got in trouble. Original Cro-Mags. But you stood up against the mandates. Absolutely, man.
Starting point is 00:02:34 That was a big deal. Yeah. And a lot of other bands and a lot of people, I'll give a quick brief because I saw this clip from The Offspring from their guitar player, Kevin. I call him Kevin. That's great. He hates it. And he was saying that being punk is defying conventions.
Starting point is 00:02:51 And this is a band that kicked out their drummer because his doctor told him, Pete Parata's doctor said, you're at risk for a gangbanger. You can't get this. So they kicked him out. It's not very punk rock, but it's good to have you. We'll talk about it all. I said, you know, that's the definition of hypocrisy right there. Yep.
Starting point is 00:03:06 And Pete's a great guy, and, you know, I stood behind him during the whole thing. Should be fun. Thanks for hanging out. Phil's here. Hey, what's up, everybody? My name is Phil Labonte. I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains. I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary.
Starting point is 00:03:21 John is hardcore royalty. He's too modest to tell you,. John is hardcore royalty. He's too modest to tell you, but he is hardcore royalty. Like the Cro-Mags are like icons in the hardcore and metal scene. And like I said, he's modest because he's a hardcore guy and that's how hardcore guys are. But I'll go ahead
Starting point is 00:03:40 and I'll give you his bona fides. Hannah Clare, how are you? I just think we're in for a night of bromance because you fanboyed over Phil and Phil is fanboying right back. Whatever the macho equivalent of this is. I'm Hannah Clare Brimlow. It's good to see you guys. Let's get started. So the big news, of course, we got this from KTLA.
Starting point is 00:03:56 Trump campaign not viewing Coachella incident as an assassination attempt. You may have heard the story. And it's tough because when the Ryan Ruth story came down, this was in Florida, media immediately came out and said this is not an assassination attempt. Stop spreading misinformation. Liberals were coming out saying, oh, it's not true. And then not only was it true, but this dude, Ryan Ruth, wrote up a letter offering a bounty and other crazy things pertaining to, I try to be careful here, you know, but threats on Trump's life. So when this story drops, the concerns we have now is the media is going to deny it. They're going to say no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:04:32 And it might be something serious. But now it's turning out this guy, Vem Miller, 49. He's actually tweeted. Several people have said this is his Twitter account. He's a Trump supporter. He is diehard Trump. The story goes that he had actual VIP passes to the Coachella rally. And he stops at a checkpoint. He has a loaded shotgun and a handgun. And the sheriff checks his car and is just like, okay, this guy is up to no good. Checks his passports, claims the guy's got fake passes. He claims they're real. I don't know what's true, man.
Starting point is 00:04:57 But he says apparently he's got fake passports too. This guy, Vem, says that his passport's real. It's Armenian. So he's got a foreign passport as well with his full Armenian name on it. It's not fake. The story is absolutely wild. He was released on $5,000 bail later that day and is scheduled to appear in court on January 2nd, 2025.
Starting point is 00:05:15 Apparently, they're saying this is just a gun charge. But the sheriff went on TV and has done a bunch of interviews saying, I believe we stopped an assassination attempt. Now, this sheriff attended the RNC and is apparently also a Trump supporter. I'm going to go ahead and say I do not believe this was an assassination attempt. And it's kind of strange that the corporate press is still running the narrative largely that it was because I feel like that benefits Trump. I don't know what you guys think. I think they don't know what to make of this story. I mean, to me, as more and more information came out about it, the sheriff or maybe any sheriff's department that is in charge of helping with security at on their watch. And so I could understand where it is a situation
Starting point is 00:06:08 where they were maybe more aggressive with what was going on than they would have been. On the other hand, it is unusual for the media to keep going with the assassination attempt narrative. And in part, I think that's because they just do not know what to make of this situation. I mean, at first there were reports that, you know, he was a sovereign citizen, he had a fake pass and like all this kinds of stuff. And so I think there is a level of the assassination attempts get clicks like that headline makes people read the story. And I think corporate press is really out for itself. Yeah, I think that I think it's likely that the boring story is the most the most close to true.
Starting point is 00:06:46 And I think that the media just, you know, tries to add context as they hope to get more clicks and stuff. And look, I mean, it's not like the media is known. Modern media is known for being, you know, honest and shooting straight. If they can slime people on the right, they're going to do it. So, you know, you don't hate the media enough. I think Trump assassination equals clicks, equals ad sales. I mean, I saw an interview with him, I think, this morning, and he just said, I got caught in the wrong place at the wrong time,
Starting point is 00:07:22 and I travel with guns, and I crossed into California. I mean, well, let's just say this. Look, I'm a big 2A. I'm probably one of the craziest 2A guys out there. But I don't think anybody should be bringing loaded weapons to a Trump rally. Absolutely. And I get it. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:07:39 And there's going to be a lot of people who say, look, I have a right to keep and bear arms and I can bring them where I please. And I'm like, yeah, but people are trying to kill Donald Trump. So maybe you just don't do that. Yeah. Maybe that maybe that's just, you know, some tact. Yeah. I mean, you can you have the right. And I get there are people that are going to go ahead and say, you know, well, I'm exercising my right.
Starting point is 00:07:55 Well, you're also exercising your right to be a jerk. Kind of like I mean, if that's all you're doing is just being like, well, Donald Trump's there and I have a right. It's like, look, man, people are on edge already. There's been two official attempts on the guy's life. There's been at least, you know, there was the dude that jumped up on stage that Secret Service had to actually grab. There's been plots on the guy's life. Like, if you're a supporter of Trump, like, use your head. You know, again, you got the right, but you also have the
Starting point is 00:08:25 right to be a real. Somebody just chatted that they were forced to watch a Kamala for president ad on this stream. Condolences, you know, and it's brutal because back in the day you chose which ads you'd read, you know, for for real shows, it'd be like, OK, we'll see where our sponsor is and we'll say yes or no. Now on YouTube, it's just nothing you can do about it. Yeah. So but it's funny because I'm more than happy to say kamala harris is awful do not vote for her i think she is bad for this country donald trump is literally risking his life at this point with i mean it may be an assassination attempt we don't know this guy van miller i don't i don't know he follows me um and he's got 17 000 followers he's saying it's it's it's it's not
Starting point is 00:09:04 and that may be the case, but some people are suggesting maybe it was plausible deniability, that it was set up so that if caught, it would look like it wasn't, or you could have some deniability. But I'm leaning towards it's probably not. But that being said, if the Harris campaign came to me and said we'd like to sponsor your show, I'd say get bent. If she asked to appear on the show, would you have her on?
Starting point is 00:09:24 Absolutely. Yeah, no question. I heard she's going to do Fox News. would you have her on absolutely yeah no question i heard she's gonna do fox news do you guys hear that yeah brett bear brett's great she's gonna get he's a shooter you know i hopefully he does ask her you know some some hard questions and i mean there there's a a whole plethora of questions that to kamala harris are difficult and and hard to answer for. So hopefully he pushes. She can't answer anything. And he said that he's not, I read a report that he had said that he's not giving her the questions beforehand.
Starting point is 00:09:52 So that will be challenging for her as well. I'm a fan of Brett Baier. I think he's a good dude. I think he, to a detriment, he does the news job the best of his abilities. And sometimes you wish he'd push back more. But that's what you get with an actual news guy. And it's funny too because Fox News, like Bill Hemmer and
Starting point is 00:10:11 Brett Baier are great. Who's on with Bill Hemmer, that woman? I forget her name. I feel bad because she's good too. It's like America's News Hour. It's very straightforward, non-opinion, just regular news. It's very good stuff. I can see in my head, but I don't remember her name. And then they and then you watch all these other channels and it's all garbled lies.
Starting point is 00:10:29 And man, I was watching Anderson Cooper. I was watching CNN over the weekend because I'm like, Steve Bannon is right. We got to watch this stuff. We can't ignore it. And it was crazy to see the lies. I watched some Bill Maher. Bill Maher said Donald Trump called for Kamala Harris to be impeached and arrested for appearing on CBS. No, he did not. He said the collusion with a
Starting point is 00:10:51 major media network to manipulate her answers for positive coverage to help her in an election should be illegal and she should be she should drop out because of it. But they lie about everything. It's crazy. That's how I feel watching the ABC morning show. It's like they are in a complete parallel universe where some of the names are familiar, but most of the details are completely different. But I do think it's interesting that Kamala is going to appear on Fox News
Starting point is 00:11:18 in part because it comes, like the announcement that she's going to do that comes days after this bipartisan council where she's saying, oh, you know, I'm going to assemble. I'm not only going to have a Republican in my cabinet, which she went from moved on that from a I would consider having one to I'm definitely going to have a Republican in my cabinet. And now she's proposing she'll have this council where she gets
Starting point is 00:11:35 to hear from, I don't know, the other side of the aisle. Of course, we know she'd pick like Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. I don't think the Republicans actually feel represented. But it does mean that some of the appeals that they have been brushing off, like Trump bringing on RFK, Tulsi having some sort of independent support is actually polling well, or it seems to be working with voters because now she's copying him. I have to, I have to backtrack. I have to issue a correction. I mean, correction is not the right word, but I'm thinking about it now because I'm looking at people talking about the Kamala ads. If the Harris campaign came to us and offered an ad spot, wanted to buy an ad spot, I would say yes. And I was thinking about it's because even Fox News runs ads from the Harris campaign,
Starting point is 00:12:18 but it's an opportunity to counter what those messages are. So if they did come to me and say, we want you to play this 30 second or minute long ad for the beginning of the show, I'd be like, yeah, yeah, okay, let's do it. And then I would analyze the whole ad. And as soon as it was over, I'd be like, now let's rip that thing to shreds. I would preface the ad with now we're going to play an ad from the Harris campaign who bought the spot, stick around afterwards because we're going to dissect it and then take the opportunity. I do think it's kind of silly for me to be like every major network doing shows that are even critical, like Laura Ingram on Fox News, very critical.
Starting point is 00:12:48 All their opinion people are. And then to outright be like, we wouldn't either. My view is kind of like, maybe you want to take their money and use that against them. Like, fine, give me the money and we'll get to fund the show. Because my attitude right now is the ads run no matter what. We don't really have say in it. But we're ragging on her.
Starting point is 00:13:04 So what do I care? Fine, give me more money and then people are going to watch, they're going to hate you, and then we're going to complain about you. Bill Hemmer's co-host is Dana Perino. She used to be... Wait, Perino is? I think so, Dana Perino, yeah. She used to be George W. Bush's... Are you sure about that?
Starting point is 00:13:20 That's what our secret producer has informed me. You're right, it is. Because there was someone else before. It used to be someone else. And I think she must have just left. Yeah, it is Perino now.
Starting point is 00:13:33 I'm a fan of Perino because of the dogs. Oh, yeah? She has great dogs. I like the five. Jesse Waters and Gutfeld at the same time is fantastic. Those guys do a good show. Big fan. What were we talking about?
Starting point is 00:13:44 Oh, yeah. Whether or not someone tried to kill Trump again? Yeah. Yeah, people are saying that Van Miller put out a video statement saying the body camera footage is going to prove it's bunk. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:54 So, I... They said he had fake press credentials. But what does that mean? What does it mean, fake press? I don't know. Right? You don't even know what to believe anymore. Well, no.
Starting point is 00:14:04 What's a real press credential? Yeah. Like, ABC news can make one and claim it's real yeah and then we're gonna say yes to that nah it's bs they claimed his he had fake passes in general like vip passes right but he's saying he had real ones i mean that's gonna be easy to prove wouldn't his comms team pass out press passes that are official like i don't know how it works for um well it's it's no it's i i don't are they talking about the rally press passes or are they saying he had a press pass like he made his own yeah i don't know if they're fake that's easy to prove and this is a fishy story right so we will see but i don't trust nobody this guy's saying he's not a part of any sovereign city uh sovereign
Starting point is 00:14:40 citizen movement and that's all lies and all manipulations i think what it may be is as hannah claire was mentioning earlier everybody's on edge so I actually, I think it's fair to say we can call this one a bad hair day, because it sounds like the sheriff was doing a good job in that he saw a guy with a passport with a name that didn't look right. The passes didn't seem real, and he had loaded weapons. I think that person should be turned around. Absolutely. Because what's going to happen is, I mean, this crooks dude in Butler is able to get a gun into the rally because they were too lax. Don't bring weapons to a presidential rally, man.
Starting point is 00:15:12 Yeah. I mean, look, I mean, the two way absolutist people. A gun, a range finder. Yeah. Come on, man. Yeah. Like, you know. It's just it's just a bad idea, especially, you know, in today's climate. Like, don't bring it to the rally. Just don't bring it. Let's just it's just a bad idea especially you know in today's climate like
Starting point is 00:15:25 don't bring it to the rally just don't bring it let's jump to this story this one's gold this from the new york post jd vance rips abc's martha raddatz as she tries to downplay venezuelan gang takeover in colorado do you hear yourself i can't believe this. Listen to this. I'm gonna stop you. The incidents were limited to a handful of apartment complexes and the mayor said our dedicated police officers have acted on those concerns, a handful of problems. Only Martha, do you hear yourself? Only a handful of apartment complexes in America were taken over by Venezuelan gangs. And Donald Trump is the problem and not Kamala Harris's open border. Americans are so fed up with what's going on and they have every right to be.
Starting point is 00:16:13 This is insane. Let's listen to Martha Raddatz's voice. OK, that's her name, right? Raddatz, listen to how she talks. I'm going to stop you. The incidents were limited to a handful of apartment conflicts, apartment complexes. And the mayor said our dedicated police officers have acted on those concerns. Why does she hate so much? This is what I don't understand. And I'm sorry, I am just pissed off. What about these psychotic cultists need to defend every effing thing, no matter what
Starting point is 00:16:49 it is? Can't for once in your life, you just be like, you know, JD, it is true. I mean, these, these, these migrant takers of apartments are really, really bad. I don't know if that means in the bigger picture that Donald Trump is the right answer to solve the problem, blah, blah, blah. No, she comes out and says, no, I'm going to stop you. They said it was only a handful. Why? Why the indignation? Just shut up for once. Just say, OK, we as reasonable people think it is shocking that Venezuelan gangs took over apartments in the United States. You know what, man? I have this question. And I remember Daryl Davis. He's amazing. If you don't know who he is, he's a black blues musician. One day he said he was thinking about the Klan and these white
Starting point is 00:17:31 supremacists. He says, how could somebody hate me if they don't know me? So we went to a Klan rally, and he started talking to people, and they said a bunch of mean things to him, but they didn't attack him or anything. And then he ended up making friends with these guys, and many of them actually quit and turned in their robes and said, I was wrong. I was completely wrong. Because he said, how can they hate me if they don't know me? This is what I see when I see Martha Raddatz. Just you can hear the indignation, the hatred she has for Vance in her voice.
Starting point is 00:17:55 I'm going to stop you. The incidents were limited to a handful of apartment complex apartment complexes. And the mayor said our dedicated police officers have acted on those concerns. A handful of problems. Why? I don't get it. I can sit down with someone and they'll say Donald Trump is a racist and I'll go, OK. Yeah, I think a lot of people feel that way. We'll elaborate. What do you what do you think? Like, I don't get mad about it. I say simply explain to me your thoughts and opinions. Why is a journalist, a corporate press journalist so angry? And you know what? I'm sorry. I got to do an extended rant on this one because I've got
Starting point is 00:18:33 this from NPR. September 6th, 2024, Aurora police chief says there's no evidence that Venezuelan gang took over apartment. Here's the New York Times, September 15th, how the false story of a gang takeover in Colorado reached Trump. They claimed it was a lie. That's why they're mad, because it happened. It's been going on for a long time. It is shocking to the conscience of any good American. And the media lied and they got caught and they got caught by people like us and J.D. Vance. And that's why she's pissed off. Now she's saying only a handful. Great. First it was none. It's not happening. Now it's a handful.
Starting point is 00:19:08 What's next? Well, actually, they took it over a year ago. And that's apparently part of the reports as well. There are reports from over a year ago that these gangs were operating here. And they've lied about it all. So I'm just sick of these people being so angry and full of hatred for seemingly no reason. To defend something like this is is unconscionable it is weird that she's like so obviously completely not empathetic to
Starting point is 00:19:32 the people who are affected by this she's like it's a handful of apartment complexes somewhere i don't care she refers to them as like a handful of incidents like it's like a handful of littering incidents or like it's a handful of parking tickets. Why do you care so much? No, it's foreign gangs taking over a place where people live. Like, that's crazy. They said they were shaking them down for the rent, the tenants, but that's a New York post online story.
Starting point is 00:19:55 Did you see the cover of the New York post today in New York? What's that one? They're doing it in New York. It's about time square that the Venezuelan gangs have taken over Times Square. And I have friends. Are they going to run the New Year celebration this year? We'll see, you know. But I have friends that are in the NYPD and they're like, these guys commit crimes and we have to let them go with a desk appearance ticket.
Starting point is 00:20:18 And then they bail. They don't show up. This is how you end up with a society that says it's okay to unleash the jackbooted police on the on criminals if you want to have a society that treats people that are breaking the law badly allow this for a little while and then people get fed up with it and they say give them the boot bring the boot down on them they say make our streets safe you cannot allow this stuff to continue go on and expect the population to continue to accept it they're going to say bring the boot down and that boot comes down on everybody they hate you they absolutely do these
Starting point is 00:21:01 these corporate press these democrats these liberals they they hate you. And I will explain the truth shall set you free. And I'm not saying that of me. I'm saying that is the reality that they are trying to avoid. That's why they don't let you know the truth. This woman, it starts with the corporate press saying it's not happening at all. Then when it's irrefutable, they say, so what? It's only a few. Right. They hate you so much. They don't care if you're right. They don't care if it's proven that they're wrong. You must be stopped for no reason other than they hate you. If this were happening to her friends or to an apartment complex that her family lived in or something, she would be up in arms.
Starting point is 00:21:45 But because she doesn't know the people, and they're probably poor, it's fine. It's just a couple, and it doesn't matter. Well, they're revisiting the whole, I just saw a report, they're revisiting that whole California, you know, if you don't steal over $1,000. Now they're saying, because all these small stores are getting put out of business by it these people are going in there and just looting the store and now the
Starting point is 00:22:13 workers ready to pass another law to say hey you know we're going to make looting a crime again you know like let me look i'll tell you you know, I grew up in a liberal area and I remember being a teenager and hearing all this stuff about pro-choice and all that. And then I met someone, I was living in the suburbs and I was, you know, hanging out at the local college and I was meeting a bunch of people and I had a friend of a friend and I was hanging at her house and her family were conservative Republican Christians. And I don't care, didn't mean anything to me. And they started, parents were talking about abortion. And I just said, sure, tell me what you think. I said, oh, wow, I didn't realize you felt that way. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:22:50 It was that easy for me. I don't know. That was how I grew up. And I feel like there's so many people right now, like this woman, they don't care if you're right or if you're wrong. You're on the wrong team. You're on the wrong side of history. It doesn't matter what's true. It doesn't matter what will make this country function better or not. What matters is you are defying them and you will not crawl back under their boot. That's why Martha Raddatz is visibly agitated and angry with J.D. Vance. She's been proven wrong already. The issue is plainly visible to the average reasonable person who's trying to figure out what's going on. And they're angry that no matter what they do, they keep getting exposed as liars. And they can't defeat the people they hate.
Starting point is 00:23:30 And to Phil's point, if the concern is an increasing tolerance for authoritarian policing, then the Democrats are now in a position where they can say, oh, well, we're going to be tough on crime. But what they're saying is we're going to be tough on crime for Americans who are illegally in this country already, because we are going to try to maintain the duality of we are compassionate to people who are illegally, all illegal immigrants are here because of some, you know, very sympathetic, you know, asylum seeker type reason when the reality is that is probably not the majority of people who enter the country. And it's definitely not the policies that police officers have to enforce right now in places like Aurora.
Starting point is 00:24:12 And even if you have a situation where the police are empowered to arrest people, you're going to have the DAs that aren't prosecuting or judges that let people go. This is a bit of a sidetrack, but there was a story about two joyriders, I believe it was in Vegas, that hit a guy and killed him. It was clearly, they intended to do it. They targeted him. He was a sheriff. He was on his bike.
Starting point is 00:24:39 A tired cop. I believe it was a stolen car. They hit him, killed him. They ran him down intentionally. Yeah, intentionally. They were talking about it. And the driver was just recently let off. They were laughing at the car.
Starting point is 00:24:52 They put it on their cell phone. Just recently, the judge said that he was not fit to stand trial. Two or three doctors talked to him. Two of them said that he was fit to stand trial. And the judge still said the driver's not fit to stand trial two or three doctors talked to him two of them said that he was fit to stand trial and the judge still said the driver is not fit to stand trial they won't prosecute people when have commit committed crimes when people say when i hear these these christians say like demons are taking over i'm like i'm inclined to believe it when i see this stuff i'm just like i don't understand how a thinking human being lets someone like that go
Starting point is 00:25:25 right i just don't get it uh demons there you go i mean i'm 62 i grew up on the streets of new york in the 70s when it was crazy violence i mean i got locked up i did two years like what's happening now there and the reason i got out of there is because new york's a trash can fire where the criminals are just they they have all the rights and um i mean even back in the day people had the common sense like hey you know and and just one example if you got caught with an illegal gun back in a day even 10 10 years ago, it was an automatic bullet, meaning you got a year in Rikers Island. And then you got a year for every bullet in that gun. Right. Now you could hold up a store, pistol whip somebody with a loaded pistol, and you get a desk appearance ticket because brag this guy who's the da calvin brag yeah he's he's and you know it's incredible what he's done
Starting point is 00:26:34 to the city and like the marine that choked that dude out on the subway that was attacking everybody he goes to jail i'm like and what's and what that's doing is saying, like, I mean, I grew up, you know, Bernard Goetz went on the subway and did what he did, and people just got sick of it. Then I really feel it's going to, you know, it's going to cause people to start taking the law into their own hands in a certain way because if the police are not protecting you and my friends who are cops are so frustrated because they're like, look, we lock these guys up. We do. My friend was the head of the gun confiscation task force
Starting point is 00:27:13 in a seven five in Brooklyn. And he's like, we lock these guys up. And these DAs and these judges and these prosecutors, they give them a slap on the wrist and they're right back out on the street. It's discord between the citizens and the police, but it's the police and the judicial system. Because I'm sure there are police who look at some of these cases and say, like these two joyriding guys, whoever arrested them is probably like, this is important. These are people who should not be on the street. And then it gets turned over to a judge who is like, I have my own opinions on this. I'm going to treat them. I'll tell you a lot of the, a lot of the liberal policies,
Starting point is 00:27:45 especially in New York City, right? So they did away with the task force. And I get it because some of those guys came from Long Island. They didn't have any clue how to interact with people that lived in the inner city in Brooklyn. And they were throwing guys up against the wall that were coming off work just because they were African American and like that.
Starting point is 00:28:07 But when you do away with the whole thing just because of a couple of bad apples, right? But guess who wants those task forces to come back? The people that live in the Marcy projects, the poor black and brown people that are being the victims of all this gun violence now that's happening in the city. And, you know. Let's jump to this story. We got this one from the New York Post. Baby face Trend Day Aragua crew at New York City migrant shelter targets Times Square and they're getting away with it. Here you go, ladies and gentlemen.
Starting point is 00:28:39 Trend Day Aragua has taken over Times Square now. We already heard about that guy with the gun in Times Square. What happened? He got arrested or he was, what was he shooting at somebody? What happened with that? Do you guys remember that story? He shot, yeah, he shot somebody and then they jumped the cop and they let those guys out. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:54 And, you know, the same thing. Desk appearance ticket and the guy split. Trend Day Irogua not taking over Times Square. Pistol packing Trend Day Irogua members become a terror in Times Square targeting New Yorkers and tourists. There he is. Here's a story. They say a brutal crew of baby-faced—I'd stop saying that. That's ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:29:16 Gang-bangers at a city-funded Manhattan shelter are pulling off—they're doing that because they're trying to make an allusion to back in the early 1900s. It's not funny. These are criminals from Venezuela who have come here and are terrorizing Americans under an administration that is doing nothing about it. And the NYPD is doing nothing. And I'm not going to give any leeway to any of the cops either, because they can say, oh, we arrest them anyway. No, they're not doing anything about it. Nearly two dozen young migrant thugs, some as young as 11, are part of a dangerous asylum-seeking brat pack that has graduated from purse snatchings to gunpoint heists targeting New Yorkers and tourists alike. But they're managing to stay out of jail because of their ages and the Empire State's lenient criminal justice laws, Detective Bureau Assistant Chief Jason Savino said. You have individuals that are brazen.
Starting point is 00:30:01 We know they have access to guns, evident by the fact they've done gunpoint robberies and they've been brazen enough to showcase pistols in and around their social media. This is the first formulated group that we have found where this group, about 20 individuals in pack format, hang out every day, post on social media, boast about their crew. You see little pockets in and around Times Square and in and around the shelters. But as far as a true threshold, it's been limited to shelters. Calling themselves Los Diablos de la 42, Spanish for the Little Devils of 42nd Street, the crew of about 21 gang members has been busted for 50 separate incidents, and yet not one
Starting point is 00:30:37 is behind bars. They committed the robberies in all the sexy places in and around Central Park, in and around Times Square, in and around transit, and targeting tourists. They kind of had a graduation of sorts and a progression where originally it started as snatches and then went to strong-armed robberies and then started brandishing knives in a pack format. This is intentional.
Starting point is 00:30:56 Yeah, they were robbing people in Central Park. This is anarcho-tyranny. The government is allowing this to happen to you. New York is allowing this to happen to you. The Harris-Biden administration can stop it. The NYPD knows they're hanging out in packs with weapons. They could stop it. They don't because they want this to happen to you. That young woman who got jumped and murdered up by Columbia University a few years ago, they know it's happening. They don't care. And I'm not going to give any leeway on any of the beat cops who are part of this and know it's happening they don't care and i'm not going to give any leeway on any of the beat cops who are part of this and know what's happening and say well don't blame me blame the higher the
Starting point is 00:31:28 top brass nah right well you see what happened when the minute adams gave that whole talk that this is going to destroy new york city and now he's under he's under indictment and investigation the minute you know they they weaponized the Department of Justice against anybody that speaks out on what's happening, you know, with the migrant crisis. And, you know, a slap in the face to me is my brother's a disabled veteran, my older brother, and, you know, the services for the VA in New York, I don't know, I can't speak about anywhere else,
Starting point is 00:32:05 but they're cutting back, like he had to go to an outside specialist. They're like, nope, we don't have the money for that anymore. And they cut a lot of the veteran services and, um, I've heard a lot of, and a lot of that. Yeah. They're cutting the veteran services and like they have money to do everything for people that are coming into the country. But they don't take care of our of our vets, man. And to me, that's, you know, there's that famous line in the song. They got money for wars, but none for the poor or whatever. That was Tupac. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:40 Now they got money for illegal immigrants, but not for American citizens. And I think these migrants age is important to talk about because, again, we hear the story of of children are separated from their parents at the border and things are so rough. But I don't think that the government is honest with the American citizens about the challenges of not verifying everyone who comes across the border. I think they sell you a sob story, but they don't face the reality. It's not to say that these kids don't have hard lives in their in their home countries. But, you know, I don't know that the answer is to then say, please come to a hotel in New York and live there. And we also won't prosecute you for anything. Well, my friend of mine was a security. My friend, Danny Ilchuk, he worked for the Bad Brains. He was in this other band, The Shining Path and Roguish Armament. And he said that his boy was a security guy in the hotels where the migrants were. And they were like beating up hotel staff trash in the rooms just it's not like
Starting point is 00:33:47 you're getting the creme de la creme that's coming in here trying to you know you do have a there are a lot i have to say something else because i was just in new york city i'm i'm still there a lot and they made this whole big thing that it was the migrants in Tompkins Square Park that were shooting people it's not it wasn't like I sat I still feed people down at Tompkins Square Park I do a food program for the homeless and a lot of the African migrants that are coming there it's not them that's doing this crime and they tried to pin it on them but those guys they want to work hard you know they're here they're they're they're not breaking the law and the guys that shot everybody in Tompkins Square Park were the drug dealers that they've allowed to be in there for years on end and the neighborhood was like yo we got to get
Starting point is 00:34:37 this this card table area now they have it fenced off? But it was all the drug dealers that were in there for years. And it's coming back. It was coming back to the way it was in the 70s. 70s, Tompkins Square Park, and then you had the Tompkins Square Park riot. There was people getting murdered in that park every day. It was one of the most dangerous parks in all of New York City. And now it's like, and it was only because of the public pressure that the cops finally said, okay, we got to kick we got to kick these these drug dealers out of here.
Starting point is 00:35:10 And before that, they weren't they weren't doing anything about it. Do you think there could be the same kind of public pressure campaign to deal with crime that is tied to illegal immigration in New York? Or do you think that New York is at the mercy of the Biden administration? Oh, they're totally controlled by Washington, D.C., because you have to look at, you know, any every New York is basically the hub of everything in America, right? It's the biggest city. It's, you know, everything happens in New York and the eyes are on New York. That's why when Adam started speaking up against what's going on over there, the minute he started saying that, all of a sudden, like he's he's. Hochul was critical of the Biden administration, too. Now, granted, both of them were like, you guys aren't doing a good job.
Starting point is 00:36:01 Now give us more money and work permits. But they were critical. Hochul doesn't seem to be facing the same kind of scrutiny that Adams is. She's kind of like falling back into the shadows a lot. Like what she did and Cuomo did and all them did during COVID was despicable what they did to the New York citizens. That's why I got out of there. And people were talking crap. Oh, yeah, you're this tough guy. But you're like, I didn't leave New York because of the violence.
Starting point is 00:36:33 That's my world. Like, I grew up in that. But my girl got attacked on the subway. Everybody just stood there watching. She got punched, and the guy was punching women. And just the whole thing of what they did in New York during that whole lockdown stuff. I mean, I was sending Joe Rogan videos of like in the middle of Times Square on a Friday night. And there was not a soul in Times Square, not a car, nothing.
Starting point is 00:37:03 And he's like, yo, it was just, you know, insane what they pulled. And the thing that got me, what I spoke up about was they took my rights for my choices for myself, what I chose to do for my own health. And the people that were coming across the border, right? They weren't, they didn't have to show any papers or anything or get tested. And I'm like, how is it? And I brought that up and the whole hardcore scene turned on me, calling me this, that, the other thing. But I think it's an important thing to bring up.
Starting point is 00:37:39 I mean, there was a time when they added the COVID vaccination to the schedule of vaccinations that people who are migrating legally into this country need to take. But it was not mandated for anyone who entered illegally. No way. And I think there was one lawmaker who introduced legislation basically talking about this. But it is it is fascinating that there seems to be this growingly obvious double standard between both of the federal and the state level governments and not all state governments some state governments treated you know all these things differently uh what they say is okay for legal citizens to do versus what's okay for people who
Starting point is 00:38:14 are not here legally right well i caught a lot of slack too because i put on that tompkins i was came up with the initial idea to put that Tompkins Square Park show on in 2021 during the lockdowns with Cousin Joe from Black and Blue and you know they locked down like the whole city but meanwhile there's 50
Starting point is 00:38:38 60,000 people going to Citi Field to see the Mets or the Yankees and that was all cool but the minute that we and the protests I was there for all during the protest Black Lives Matters thousands in the streets nobody wearing masks and not all of them but some of them were rioting and you know and the cops all went up to the jewelry district and left everybody hanging out to dry that lived downtown. You were on your own.
Starting point is 00:39:10 But I said, how is it that they could do all this? So our form of protest is music. I come from punk rock and hardcore since 77. I said, hey, man, let's do this show and say hey we're sick of this and we put the show on and it was blood clod and murphy's law and you know mad ball and a bunch of bands i know you're a fan of mad ball i love freddie shout out to freddie and hoya and and we put this concert on and the blowback like you think punk rockers would be like standing up and saying yo question authority all the stuff like we were just talking about you know pete getting fired from the offspring and then the guy says we're against authority and all this but it's
Starting point is 00:40:00 like you i would have thought hey you guys would have celebrated us standing up in New York City. It was the shot heard around the world, man. They had us in Australia. We were on the news everywhere calling us conspiracy theory, anti-vaxxers, this, that, the other thing. We lied to get the permit, they said, that we told the fire department that it was a we told the city it was a 9-11 benefit which is a total lie but no one in the industry in the in the music scene came to your defense other than i guess oh they slammed me everywhere i was uh you know i was i i criticized dave grohl for playing vax live because like he does all the freaking bad brain songs live. Regulator, which is, look at, read the lyrics to Regulator.
Starting point is 00:40:46 It's all about the government controlling people. And I called them out and they slammed me on every single Rolling Stone, NME, every single outlet. I was, I became the bad guy. And I, oh, and then he did this concert and, you know.
Starting point is 00:41:02 Punk died when all these punk bands went corporate pro-government. Yeah. I can't believe it. It's just. I guess I can, especially as many of these bands corporatized a long time ago. Yeah. They pretended like they were against the machine,
Starting point is 00:41:17 but they were literally signing these big corporate deals and saying, tell me where to jump and how high. Well, let's jump to this one from Vanity Fair. Ladies and gentlemen, Donald Trump's next stop on his podcast blitz may be Joe Rogan. Did you guys see this? Yeah. Trump said he's going on Rogan.
Starting point is 00:41:31 I dig it, man. And Rogan said, what? What did Joe say? Yeah, I saw him. I'll play the clip for you, actually. You're doing a lot of podcasts recently. One that I would love to see you on is, I think Joe Rogan has to have you on. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:44 Yeah. Would you do that? Oh, sure, I would love to see you on is, I think Joe Rogan has to have you on. Yeah. Yeah. Would you do that? Oh, sure I would. I think Joe, like, besides us, Joe's obviously- I mean, I think I'm doing it, actually. Yeah? Yeah. So you are going to do Joe Rogan?
Starting point is 00:41:53 Yeah, I am. Joe Rogan's the best in the game, for sure. And I think, you know, to him- Did Joe become so well-known because of the UFC? And he does a great job with that, right? What was it that made Joe the best? During COVID, you know, he was very outspoken on all the corruption going on during COVID, and I think that's personally when I started watching him a lot, too.
Starting point is 00:42:14 He's an honest guy, too, right? He is. Good guy. Good guy, and I think you guys together would just be... And he's got a good voice. That's important. Yeah. So they didn't actually have the clip in there where he says, I'm going on Joe Rogan. No, he said it. Oh, he did? Yeah. Oh, okay. It the clip in there where he says i'm going on joe rogan no he said it oh he did yeah oh okay it's kind of weird because he says like oh yeah i'd
Starting point is 00:42:29 be gone actually i think i'm going on like it goes from being like i am happy to do it slash now i think maybe one of my assistants told me it's happening the reason i get got so much respect for joe like we became friends after i did his podcast, is that he risked his entire platform to give a voice to the other side that was being silenced. So I sent him a clip originally of Peter McCullough, right? And he ended up getting Peter on the podcast, Dr. Peter McCullough. So I wrote a book and this Dr. Joel Kahn, who's a good friend of mine, he wrote the forward and he said, hey, check out this doctor. I trained him to be a cardiologist.
Starting point is 00:43:10 And it was Peter McCullough speaking in front of the Texas Senate, right? And how they shut him down and all this stuff. And I sent that video to Joe. And Joe was like, yo, this is crazy what they're doing. And that's when all the real attacks started against Joe. Once he spoke up and gave a side, they tried to silence, you know, didacticism in the media is just unbelievable at this point in the game. They shut down any other narrative other than the one they're trying to push. And they just try to destroy people.
Starting point is 00:43:47 So when Joe gave the platform to Peter McCullough and started really and had Alex from the New York Times, he got fired. What was his name? Not sure. I don't remember. I can't remember. But he started giving a voice to uh yeah alex uh harrison yeah alex baronson who's like a numbers guy he had all the data and then he had um rob
Starting point is 00:44:15 dr robert malone on and all these other people and i i believe like hey you know science trust the science that we kept getting told means you hear from both sides science means you debate the science and you let science take place that's not what happened there was one narrative and that's why i really gained so much respect for joe during that whole thing because they tried to take him off uh spotify and lose his platform and everything. He kind of was in a league of his own before COVID. I mean, I only knew him from UFC stuff, but he had really built a serious business and carved out, I think, a form of podcasting
Starting point is 00:44:56 that he has sort of become signature for. So it is interesting that he was like, I have questions, I want to hear answers. I mean, that's what's so unique to me about his show is like he just gets to be like I'm kind of curious about what you have to talk about I want to hear about it and one of the things that I said was he's more punk rock than any of these people because he risked whatever he got over a hundred million dollar platform on Spotify these bands kept quiet they put out records for years calling out the government, calling out the establishment, you know. And then every one of them kept quiet.
Starting point is 00:45:32 Let me tell you, bro. I'd be willing to bet you take any one of those punk bands in their heyday when they're like, screw the government. If I walked up to them and said, hey, hey, hey, I'll give you a million dollars. We're going to sign you to a deal. But we don't want the anti-government stuff. Just, you know, tone it down. They'd say yes. They'd say sure.
Starting point is 00:45:48 Look at Shelo Biafra. Got to call him out. This guy was completely anti-establishment, anti-government. And if you look at his stance during the whole COVID thing, I was like, we're living in an alternative reality. And all these bands that I looked up to you know my new album i said all my heroes abandoned me right i had a lyric in there because all the punks that i looked up to back in the day just all started bootlicking the government man and i'm like yo dude and i and then came after anybody that had anything to do. People would, you know.
Starting point is 00:46:26 There was a, I can't remember who said this. Was it Matt Walsh, maybe? I can't remember. No, it might have been Alex Berenson. I don't know. I'm not giving proper credit. But they were saying on X, maybe it was Zuby. I think it was Zuby.
Starting point is 00:46:37 I love Zuby. Yeah, that often people think that when you got a lot of money, you got F you money. I think it was Zuby. You got F you money and you're like, I'm rich. I can do whatever I want. That's actually not true. Yeah. These people are super rich and they're like, I'm not going to risk speaking up for $10 million.
Starting point is 00:46:51 Are you nuts? When people are broke, they're like, who cares? I'm broke. But then you look at Joe Rogan and he's got all these big deals and he has apologized on some instances. Yeah. And he's like, he went ham. He said, I'm going after all of this stuff. I'm going to talk about whatever I want to talk about.
Starting point is 00:47:09 I'm going to call out the BS. He championed things. CNN ran a picture of his face, making it look like he was sick. Yo, you saw that? Oh, that was disgusting. They made him look green. And he never backed down. And he never backed down.
Starting point is 00:47:23 They said he took court. Well, we can't get into all that. Well, they put a, dude, I got to tell you. They were claiming that he was taking horse medicine. And they showed a little cartoon, like there's a little horse icon on the screen. I was like, why did they do that? He had Sanjay Gupta on. And he called out Sanjay Gupta.
Starting point is 00:47:40 And Sanjay Gupta had to cop to it. Like, yeah, that was wrong. They shouldn't have done that. And then he backtracked later. That just shows you what they were doing. Gupta and Sanjay Gupta had to cop to it. Like, yeah, that was wrong. They shouldn't have done that. And then he backtracked later. That just shows you like what they were doing. Gupta went on CNN later and then backtracked. I didn't see that. Yep.
Starting point is 00:47:52 He was on Rogue and he was like, yeah, yeah, you're right. But then later said, well, you know, actually, because these people in the press, the corporate press machine, like we saw with Martha Reddits when she tells J.D. Vance, it's only a handle of apartments being taken over. Yeah. They hate you. Look, man, I feel like when you look at Bill Gates and these powerful global elites, and then you look at people like Joe Rogan, it's populist, it's elitist. The elitists, in their mind, they're thinking the average person is too stupid.
Starting point is 00:48:19 We need to just manipulate them like sheep. And then the populists are like, hey, man, you do you and we'll figure it out. So we're on the populist side. We believe in you, dear listener, to make your own decisions and do what's best for you. And that if we work together, then meritocracy and the best ideas win. These elites, they think not like Michael Bloomberg said, we're going to tax the poor. That's a quote. Yeah. He said we tax the poor because poor people spend money on things that are bad for them. So he tries doing this out of tax he tries to do these punitive taxes because he doesn't want poor people to be able to buy these things yeah i was in new york when he was when he was doing all that i mean if you just listen to the stuff that the world
Starting point is 00:48:58 economic forum talks about like you know it's just incredible what they're planning for for everybody else and then you know you it's it's like rules for thee and not for me when you why when you go the the meeting they had over there in switzerland they're flying in all the elites on 1100 private jets suvs parties eating whatever they want do whatever they want but they want you to stay home and eat bugs and, you know, you'll own nothing and be happy. Well, you guys Schwab is like, I can't even. How are people siding with this person and being like, yes, they think they'll be part of the club. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:40 These these these liberal elites who hear these things and then side with it think that when all is said and done and they're forcing people in pods and eating the bugs they're like yeah but I'll get steak because you take a look at the what are they doing COP24 not COP25 or whatever the climate agenda stuff where all the billionaires flying on private jets to complain about
Starting point is 00:50:00 how everybody else is flying on commercial planes these liberals are like if I side with them and help them then I get to suckle the teat of the machine when everyone else is living in the gutter it's not going to happen when the elites shut everything down shut down your cars shut down your computers make you get rid of cash and you're all digital currency now right these these liberals are going to be right there on the bottom with everybody else well you know that that famous saying first they came for this and then they came for these people. And then finally I didn't speak up. And then finally they, they came, they came for me,
Starting point is 00:50:34 you know, and that's, we're seeing it all. We're seeing like crazy stuff. And I never really was in, I never, I just wanted to be left alone. I lived in New York. I was a musician. I trained for Ironman. I, I helped feed the poor. I did whatever. But it's like, it's like you kind of dragged me into this to have to stand up for my rights
Starting point is 00:50:58 and be like one side. I never, I mean, and I'm going to say it never had anything like what we just experienced from 2020 on ever happened prior. So I just went about doing my thing. But in 2020, it was like, yo, like you dragged me into the ring, you know what I'm saying? Do you think a lot of Americans feel that way? I think 2020 and especially like fallout in 2021 changed a lot of Americans feel that way I think I think 2020 and and the especially like fallout in 2021 change a lot of Americans absolutely and I'm gonna I just read somebody said man you better start speaking up too many people got on their knees during COVID and obeyed and did all this
Starting point is 00:51:37 stuff and they're bullies and that's what they do and I know from the streets of New York like I said I was locked up and everything in the worst places. Spofford, I went upstate like I could tell you right now, if you don't stand up to a bully, they're just going to keep doing what they're doing. And that's everybody obeyed and complied two weeks, flattened the curve and all this. And I'm like, I smelled the rat right away. I said, nah. I filmed, and I put it on my Instagram page. I went around to all the hospitals because my friends are nurses, and they're like, dude, we're not overrun. And I filmed about six or seven hospitals.
Starting point is 00:52:17 No ambulances, no nothing. Empty emergency rooms. The triage tent in Central central park nobody went in there uh the uh the javits they had thousand beds six beds full the uss but uh that's because cuomo put the sick people in nursing homes and killed a bunch of elderly people well that was the old people he did that to right he put the old uh he put he put recovering covid patients instead of usingavits, he put them in nursing homes and it killed 15,000 people. Right. Well, he was just crazy.
Starting point is 00:52:51 And he put out a book. But it wasn't just him. Yeah. It was, I believe it was what, Wolf, Whitmer, Newsom. Who am I missing? Because there was... Yeah, they were doing it in Pennsylvania. They did it in Ohio.
Starting point is 00:53:03 But the audacity of that guy to put out a book about what he did during COVID in the middle of COVID. His book came out in the middle of COVID, bragging about how. And meanwhile, he killed how many thousands of elderly people? 15,000 people. And I wonder what the impact on the election was. But let's jump to this one. We got the story from New York Post. Kamala Harris accused of plagiarism in co-authored
Starting point is 00:53:30 2009 book on criminal reform. Vice President Kamala Harris is facing allegations of plagiarism. I want to pause right now and just say, I don't understand why they're saying allegations when you can see side by side the plagiarism. So is that an allegation? Okay, well, you know, do what you want.
Starting point is 00:53:46 Conservative activist Chris Ruffo, is that fair to say he's a conservative activist? Published the allegations on Monday and credited an investigation by Australian plagiarism hunter Stefan Weber, with Ruffo posting screenshots and acts of five examples in which the wording in the book closely resembles other sources. Just come on,
Starting point is 00:54:01 guys. Exclusive, there's another instance of verbatim plagiarism by Kamala Harris, which we have provided the New York Times of the weekend, and which the Times refused to acknowledge in its report today. This makes six significant instances, and we have more in reserve. So here he is showing Goodwill Industries, Kamala Harris, and showing the plagiarism. Here's what the New York Times wrote York Times wrote like word for word.
Starting point is 00:54:26 Conservative activist seizes on passages from Harris book report by Chris Rufo says the Democratic presidential nominee copied five short passages from her 2009 book on crime. A plagiarism expert said the lapses were not serious. I love this. Amazing. Five short passages, just like Martha was telling us what it's only a couple incidents likeplaying everything that goes wrong because they decide that it's not worth you being upset about it because they want you to save your outrage for their causes listen i wrote six books if somebody even lifted a single paragraph from any of my books it's copyright infringement yeah it is i mean the reality is kamala could come out and say oh well my name's my name's in the byline, but I didn't write a single word.
Starting point is 00:55:05 It was all ghostwriter. And I didn't have the wherewithal to check to see if there was plagiarism. But she doesn't want to admit that she didn't write anything. Yeah. And there's no way she wrote this book. I heard that part of the things that were taken were actually lifted from Wikipedia. Yes. I mean, that.
Starting point is 00:55:20 And so there was one instance where Rufo said it was an incorrect statement, which makes it obvious it was Wikipedia because Wikipedia is the source for the incorrect statement. It's the fact that that is the case is embarrassing. And I can't believe that there's no like this is going to be swept under the rug by the people on the left. They're just gonna be like, well, whatever. It's five short passages. Don't get upset about it. It's insane. She's just trying to be the president of the United States.
Starting point is 00:55:51 Do you remember when Joe Biden tried to run for president and then got caught with a plagiarism scandal and then dropped out and like lay low in American politics until he got to become president? I mean, maybe the answer is the American left doesn't care about plagiarism because they know neither one of them are honest people anyways. I caught a clip of her recent rally and she was bragging about her record in crime and being a prosecutor and all this stuff. But it's like, if you look at what she did, like, she locked people up, like, African-American people. Like, she just went ballistic. Yeah, she's not honest about anything.
Starting point is 00:56:33 The one guy, I think, was facing the death penalty or something. And she knew that the information was there was a DNA test exonerating him. And she tried to bury it. And then they pull out obama to like rally scold black men into voting i was like yo like what is this man like this guy left this billionaire left his mansion to come and like you know to put down people that are being affected by the policies of this administration for the last four years. And theoretically, the type of prosecuting that she clearly has a history of. Yeah. I mean, I was watching part of her rally and she specifically was trying to act like, you know, Trump was being ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:57:19 If he's he's avoiding doing interviews because he doesn't want people to see that he's weak. And then she said he's refusing to do a 60 Minutes interview, even though every other president has done one for however long. Not acknowledging the fact that he's done two different 60 Minute interviews as before the 2016 presidential election and then in 2020. Like these other presidents she's referencing includes Trump himself. And she will just lie to the crowd. Well, can we also mention that they edited her interviews? The same show did this incredible edit that like just backtracked everything that she was saying about what's going on in the Middle East. And I don't understand how she wins. Like, I get it. I get everyone always has shadow campaign.
Starting point is 00:58:03 I know I get that. I just mean the argument. I don't understand how this is. Like, I get it. I get it. Everyone always says shadow campaign. I know I get that. I just mean the argument. I don't understand how this is argument that she's at 50%. You know, I mean, Gallup has Trump up three. The betting markets now have Trump up nearly 11 points. Some are at 11. Well, did you see what's happening with the DOJ right now? They sued.
Starting point is 00:58:19 I think it's my brother just sent it to me. They sued four states already for not allowing illegals to vote. And there's more that they're going to be going after. I mean, my mother's 81 years old. Shadow campaign. And she's like, how are they doing this in America? Because I kept saying, why did they let, I believe it's probably over 30 million. And they put them in the swing states and a lot of the red
Starting point is 00:58:46 states they they put that are going to vote uh for trump or whatever and now i kept saying why are they letting all these people it's not some altruistic thing you know they care about people why are they loading why did they let all of these people come into america right and now you're seeing why because they're loading them up in these states and then they're not they don't they're suing the states for not allowing illegal uh immigrants to to vote yeah and i'm just like i mean and they're doing it in red states or they're doing it in purple states. They're doing it in Ohio. They're doing it in Florida. They're doing it in places where if these people do become citizens or if they can get them onto the voter rolls, they're going to affect the election outcome.
Starting point is 00:59:36 Elon just said that on, I just caught part of his interview with actually Pete Parada and my and uh yep and my boys which by the way they hooked me up with you uh dickie shout out to the oh yeah to the defiance yeah love those guys and uh you know he sent me the interview of uh of uh tucker carlson and elon yep And it was like this 25 minute clip. And I'm like, they're like this. If, if, if they get their way, this could be the last like legit election. And Bill Maher said that was a lie. That's, that's ridiculous there. And there's an infrastructure. Bill Maher smokes too much weed, man.
Starting point is 01:00:19 That's true. And there's an infrastructure that, that the DNC has to do this. Like they're they're using federal dollars to send illegals into different states that have, you know, that have a possibility of going for the Democrats that are currently purple or or a little on the red side. They have they bring them into the states. Flying them. Yeah. Flying them. That's what I mean. It's like people get wrapped up in the whole Haitian, got wrapped up in the whole Haitians in Ohio eating dogs and et cetera. And it does, you know, it does. It's a good song though. It was. They're eating the dogs.
Starting point is 01:00:56 They're eating the cats. They're eating the cats. But the real ramifications will come when those people are are naturalized or when they become citizens and then then ohio is no longer a red state it's a it's consistently blue the same thing is happening in in florida and it's happening in multiple other states and this is it this is a concerted plan by the dnc they're using federal money to do it it's incredibly it's it's a terrible development for the the the people that are here currently because they're actually diluting the votes and musk is right they're trying to create a permanent one party absolutely that's what he's
Starting point is 01:01:37 government and and you see what that's like in mexico i think it was like 20 years ago where Mexico had essentially a one party. The one party got enough of the control of the government to be able to essentially block out the other parties. And now you have multiple states in Mexico that can't, you know, they're not even run by the government. They're run by the cartels. I mean, you know, the other thing to me that I find ironic is the ones who keep saying that if Trump gets in, it's the end of democracy are actually the ones that are destroying democracy.
Starting point is 01:02:15 They just installed somebody as the Democratic candidate that nobody voted for. Where's democracy? Where's the democracy in censoring free speech first amendment where's the democracy forcing a medical injection upon somebody like the ones and that's that's a communist playbook they they accuse the other side of doing exactly what what they're doing and i mean i'm probably the oldest guy in this room and what i've seen go down uh in the last years of this and you know my mom is just like she just can't believe what she's witnessing she's 81 she's like they're going to destroy yeah this country and i'm sorry uh you know if you think like that's some kind of like
Starting point is 01:03:08 right-wing propaganda but i'm not i just look at the truth of the situation i don't look at i don't fall on any side um i just i i stay in the middle and i'm like yo what's the truth and what's a lie and that's what that's what we have to look at and if you're going to play partisan politics with like you're going to agree with something just because that person has a d or an r behind their name that's bogus too because you know I love Tulsi Gabbard and she calls out the military industrial complex she's like these republicans are just as bad they're getting these defense contracts. And they I have, you know, friends who were served in Iraq. And they're like, we and even Sean Ryan says it now. We went over there on a on a complete lie. What they told us after 9-11, we thought we were doing our patriotic duty. And it all turned out to be a bunch of lies for Cheney and Rumsfeld and the rest of them and the Bushes. There's one thing I want to point out or one thing I want to say about if you want to check my my information about that. It's the Department of Department of HHS, Health and Human Services, the Refugee Resettlement program that's the program that they're using to transport people to from you
Starting point is 01:04:25 know from wherever they come in to the united states into states that are purple states and they're banking on them voting for democrats it's like i said health and human services refugee resettlement program it's it's a legitimate thing that's going on and the government is using your tax dollars if that's a thing i don't want to get into a conversation about mmt but they're using tax dollars to send refugees to purple states in the hopes that they're going to well well that's what they're calling them um to send to send them to they're using the pretense of refugees but they're using that program to send them to, they're using the pretense of refugees, but they're using that program to send them to Ohio, to Florida, to purple states in order to, with the hopes of those people voting Democrat
Starting point is 01:05:12 in order to get a one party rule in the United States. Look into the program. You can find it. It's been going on for a long time. I'll actually, a friend of mine just sent me a link. I'll post a link to it on my Twitter account. Well, you know, one of the challenging things is that if you then push back on this error, say, hey, I think we should question this.
Starting point is 01:05:33 I think we deserve more accountability from government on how they're abusing this program. In turn, the answer is, well, you're anti-refugee and that's racist. Well, their job is also to keep the american people safe and we know for a fact that there's a lot of people that are coming into the country that don't have the best intentions coming in here they just foiled that guy's plan from afghanistan and you know that he was going to go and start doing something during the elections and all that I mean you can't have an open border and have millions of people pouring in from areas where the military industrial complex and the corrupt administrations in America were just bombing these countries into oblivion.
Starting point is 01:06:26 That guy, as far as I understand it, came over as an asylum seeker because he wasn't properly vetted. He was. And that's the thing. I mean, there are ways that the federal government abuses legal immigration and uses it to get the same kind of ends to the means. I mean, we talked about that. We referenced the Haitians in Ohio. As soon as people were saying, these people seem to be here illegally, the media turned around and said, well, actually, they have temporary protected status
Starting point is 01:06:49 because Biden said they could. Well, just because Biden said they could or just because the Biden administration granted someone asylum doesn't mean that this is actually good for the American public. Let's jump to the story from the Daily Mail. Bill Clinton says Lakin Riley's murder
Starting point is 01:07:04 would not have happened if the migrant suspect had vetted properly. Now, I'll give a correction from the Daily Mail. Bill Clinton says Lakin Riley's murder would not have happened if the migrant suspect had been vetted properly. Now, I'll give a correction from the intro when I said mistakenly that he said if Trump had been elected, that's the hyperbole that has been going around. Point being, if Trump had been elected, this migrant would have been vetted properly, not allowed in, and Lakin Riley would not have been murdered. But Bill Clinton went on to criticize Donald Trump, saying Kamala Harris is the only candidate who actually endorsed a bill that would hold down immigration any given year to a certain point, and then made sure we gave people a decent place to live, didn't divide people from their children, and we did total vetting before people got in. Now,
Starting point is 01:07:36 Trump killed the bill, he stated. You got a case in Georgia not very long ago, didn't you? They made an ad about it, a young woman who had been killed by an immigrant. It's kind of a wild thing to say. This is under the Harris Biden administration. This happened for him to have said this. He's basically saying they have failed on the border. Now, of course, he was trying to make it seem like Donald Trump killed the bill. The reality was there was no bill. There was the codification of illegal immigration. The bill was going to allow them to bring people in. I'll break it down for you. It's basically them saying we're going to stop bank robberies. There will no longer be crime of bank robbery because we're making it not a crime
Starting point is 01:08:16 anymore. Right. So the issue is that the illegal immigration would still be happening, but it wouldn't be illegal. It would just be mass unvetted migration. It's kind of wild because you just had Joe Biden putting on that Trump hat. And now they're saying that Biden and Harris are feuding. I think that's true. And now Bill Clinton comes out. They are desperate for some kind of surrogates to help Harris and they can't do it. And they get fumbling, bumbling Bill. I think he's younger than Joe Biden, though, right? I think so. Yes, he is. He doesn't look like he's doing so great, though. I know. Well, he was just filmed in McDonald Yes, he is. Wow, that's crazy. He doesn't look like he's doing so great, though.
Starting point is 01:08:45 I know. Well, he was just filmed in McDonald's, so that's not good for his heart. And the lady called him Joe. It was so funny. Yeah, it was like, are you Joe? They thought he was, she came out and thought he was Joe Biden. But, I mean, the largest deportation of children that ever happened was under the Obama administration. I think it was over 3 million people that he deported. Deporter in chief. Yeah. Yep. I think there is a feud between Joe Biden,
Starting point is 01:09:15 Kamala Harris. I think that he is not. Some of it is I think he has a diminished capacity and so therefore his emotions are more volatile than ever. But he's always kind of been a guy with a temper. He's always had this reputation for being vindictive throughout his career from what I understand. With Bill Clinton, I feel like he is just phoning it in. He got drafted at the final hour. They didn't even – I mean when they released this statement in July being like, we the Clintons, me and Hillary, or it was like Hillary and Bill endorsed Kamala Harris. It did not seem like Bill was the ambitious person trying to stay in politics. And so I wouldn't be surprised if he's like, yeah, I'm just kind of going to say whatever I think and move on.
Starting point is 01:09:59 I don't think there's any true loyalty between Bill Clinton and Kamala Harris. None. And that's it. Everyone agrees? Yes. All right. Thanks for hanging out, everybody. Well, it's interesting because we always talk about how the DNC is sort of a well-oiled
Starting point is 01:10:15 machine. They're able to say like everybody fall in line. But so far, we have this candidate who is not giving any specifics on her platforms. And so it's not super surprising to me that no one can stay on message because no one really knows what the message is except for obama who knows to scold black men or what she's planning to do to save the economy i saw that side by side comparison of what trump said and he was like the first thing we have to do is bring down the fuel costs and that translates to the farmers and all this stuff.
Starting point is 01:10:47 And then they did Kamala Harris. And she's like, I grew up in the middle cars. You know, the whole rhetoric that she's been talking. Right. And no plan. There'll be critical headlines. There's no economic plan. Right.
Starting point is 01:10:59 There'll be critical headlines of Trump. Trump says that he is, you know, open to mass deportation. Trump says he's going to bring back. I think the recent one recent one was like he's going to hire was the 18,000 people to work at the border. Like he he is talking in specific. The media gets really angry about it. They're like, he's going to say promising all these crazy things. But they cheer for her when she sort of speaks in riddles and platitudes and doesn't say anything. I mean, it is it is bizarre. The double standard as of today, the only battleground state that Trump is down in is Wisconsin. Trump does not need this much to win at the. Holy crap. Look at the national aggregate.
Starting point is 01:11:34 They've got Harris up one point seven. Biden was up nine point two at this point in 2020. I would. Yeah, I would love to be able to feel confident but uh get out and vote it has to be the the if trump's gonna win it has to be such a landslide that they anything they do to try to change the vote or any any kind of shenanigans won't matter i have a i have extreme concern about like the overseas votes and the, oh, we have to wait until all the absentee ballots come in, etc. I have significant concern about that stuff.
Starting point is 01:12:13 I don't think that any of it is actually as secure as it should be. So you have to make sure that you get out and vote. You cannot ignore that. Take a look at this from Gallup, U.S. adult party identification. And they show that in 2000, Republicans win, but party affiliation was fairly even. And they say Democrats won 08 and 12.
Starting point is 01:12:41 Republicans won 2016, but Democrats still had party affiliation majority. Democrats won 2020. They had party affiliation majority. But now for the first time in the since 1992, party affiliation is at 48 Republican, 45 Democrat. Let me stress this for the first time since 1992, according to Gallup, Republicans outnumber Democrats. I it's everything looks like Trump should win at this point. And I don't you know, we've got what, three weeks until the actual voting. And I I feel like the sentiment is on his side, but I do not. I no longer trust the establishment establishment i don't trust the voting
Starting point is 01:13:27 the the media is already saying oh you know it might take a couple days to to count pennsylvania and it might take a couple days to do this and this is this is totally new i mean you know i'm not a young guy anymore this these the. This election and the 2020 election were the first times that that ever happened in my lifetime. Never before did I ever see that. It was not, it was just never a thing. Everywhere around the world, they have countries constantly have elections and the elections are counted on the votes are counted on the same day. It's a very normal thing. I do not trust the media at all. And I don't trust the government anymore because the government is doing the doing things like I was just outlining about, you know,
Starting point is 01:14:20 bringing voters in and using the Department of Health and Human Services to send them to places where they want democrats to win like it's it's it's really awful that this is the state of affairs but i don't trust them anymore at all yeah i i get what you're saying i think what's interesting is uh i think a lot of conservative people were burned by the rumored red wave that was supposed to come in 2022 and it didn't appear. And so they are more anxious than ever about voter apathy, voters taking for granted that Trump is potentially in a good position to win. And I don't know. I mean, maybe that will mean people inevitably do stay home because it seems like that's something conservative causes struggle with, really getting voters to the polls. On the other hand, maybe having learned a lesson two years ago, it's a little bit different. What I find fascinating, you kind of alluded to this, is that the media keeps saying it's a very tight race. It's extremely tight. I was listening to
Starting point is 01:15:17 the podcast. Yeah, I was listening to a podcast from different pollsters today and they were pointing out, well well you know even polls where kamala harris is up slightly it's completely within the margin of error even where trump is up slightly it's within the margin of error uh and i'm so cynical about corporate press that there there's a level of like the drama is good for them people checking every day to see what's changed all the clicks all the return to views you know they benefit from it on the other hand uh a lot of the anxiety that I've been reading about from pollsters is that they don't accurately
Starting point is 01:15:48 survey Trump voters. And that was the big problem in 2016. And so now they're trying to figure out how to better survey them, but also they don't want Trump to look like he's leading. And this like dual speak is where you can't. I just feel like right now, especially given everything that happened with the hurricanes and how many people are kind of struggling to be online anyways, I feel like the polls are something you can't trust. You have to vote. I understand what you're saying.
Starting point is 01:16:15 And to be honest with you, if they're going to downplay any type of lead that Trump has, I'm fine with it because that just means that people are going to be more, the people that are motivated to vote aren't going to say, oh, he's got it in the bag there, or at least they're more likely to say, I got to get out and vote. The media has been saying that it's close and maybe they're right. So I can't just blow it off. I can't forget, you know, just not trust anything. I have to get out there and I have to vote. And this is super, super important. Like the Democrats have an apparatus to get the vote out that is
Starting point is 01:16:47 something that they have long relied on and that has been one of the reasons why democrats tend to fare better in the in the elections when they do fare better it's because they can get the vote out they have people that are activists they have way more activists than the people on the right do the right has people that go to work and work normal jobs the left owns activism almost exclusively they will have people going out and ballot harvesting they will have people going out and giving people rides they will have they have an apparatus built in and have had an apparatus built in for probably decades and decades of getting the vote out so if if you're a Trump voter, you cannot say, well, you know, it doesn't really matter. You have got to get out and vote.
Starting point is 01:17:31 You have to get your vote. If you have to vote early, vote early. Whatever means to get your vote in, make sure you do it. You cannot sit back and say it'll be fine. You have got to get out and vote because if too many people do that, Donald Trump absolutely will lose. Well, I want to stress this. The prediction right now from Gallup informally is that Republicans are going to win. And now, look, Lichtman and many others are what Jim Cramer predicted Kamala Harris would win. And everyone started cheering and yay, reverse Cramer. But we've shown this before. Since 1952, Gallup has tracked the most important issues polling the individuals and who they believe which party is better on those issues.
Starting point is 01:18:12 Every single poll correctly correlated since 1952 with the winning party. Let's just grab a random year in 1972. Moral and ethical decline in the Vietnam War was the biggest issue. And the individuals polled that the Republican Party was better on that issue. Republicans won. We had, let's just grab, 2000 is funny because it's not applicable, whatever that means. Let's go 04. Iraq war and the economy. They believed that Republicans were better on the issue. Republicans had the advantage. Republicans won. In 2012, the economy was an issue and the Democrats had the advantage. The Democrats won.
Starting point is 01:18:50 Today, in 2024, the economy and immigration is the number one and two issues. The advantage is currently held by five points for the Republican Party and the winning party is to be determined. Now look, even in 2020, COVID-19 was the big issue and voters said that Democrats had the advantage. I think that makes a lot of sense. But we'll see if that plays out in what
Starting point is 01:19:13 are we looking at? Three weeks, three weeks, three weeks. I mean, it's wild. Three weeks. She's you believe it. I saw her today, Kamala. No bread, though. No bread, though. And she was talking about her new being tough on the border. It's ridiculous. Stuff after, like, and that, you know, the housing crisis. It's like, yo, you created the housing crisis. Like, I mean, you have to be on drugs to believe anything that comes out of that woman's mouth at this point
Starting point is 01:19:51 yeah i mean i think you have to either you have to opt into a level of disbelief like you have to really believe that trump is terrible and therefore you're willing to accept the lies because you have to essentially turn off your brains to not question at least a quarter of what she says. We got this tweet from the Omni liberal destiny. For those that aren't familiar, he is a leftist liberal commentator and he tweeted if Kamala ends up winning the entire far left, the commies, the tankies, the Hamas supporters need to be effing jettisoned from the party. We don't need them to win elections. We can turn out our own base
Starting point is 01:20:29 and they are an absolute effing cancer to be associated with. And well, he's correct. I don't I wouldn't use the language he uses, but the Democratic Party has lost so many of their more moderate members. I mean, again, 2019, I supported Tulsi. I was ready to vote Democrat. I said, let's go, baby. And they chose to go far left woke psychopath. So I'm out. He is so stupid because that's what the Democrats are now.
Starting point is 01:20:56 There are no more moderate Democrats. He's not a moderate Democrat. He's an idiot. And if you look at like where the, how many Democrats that were moderate Democrats that consider themselves moderate Democrats, they've all left the Democrat party because the, the, the Democrats have doubled down on racism. They've doubled down on identity politics. They've doubled down on all the things that, that normal Americans are rejecting. You've got the major names in the Democrat Party now are all pro-Hamas and they're anti-Israel.
Starting point is 01:21:33 You see the squad, they're the ones that dictate the sentiment. But AOC is going more Israel, isn't she? Well, I don't know if AOC is. She's falling in line. She might be. I could be wrong about AOC. And then two of the squad members got to boot. Yeah, well, that's a good thing.
Starting point is 01:21:50 But that sentiment is the majority sentiment. You've got people like, Destiny doesn't get to walk out here and act like he's not in the same boat as Hassan Piker. And Hassan is clearly anti-Israel, pro-Hamas. All of BreadTube, they've all got their start because of Destiny. He is the exact reason why the left is the way it is now. He is the absolute reason that it's happening.
Starting point is 01:22:19 And he's right. The Democrats only stand a chance if they get rid of the extremists in their party and try to become more moderate. So how about the Democratic Party and its institution and the people running it today are gone. And then it's Tulsi Gabbard who takes it back over. And then you effectively get two more moderate parties with the Republican Party, the Democratic Party and actual agreements and arguments the way they used to be instead of this crackpot, tanky communist garbage that they currently represent now. It's interesting hearing pollsters talk about this because they'll refer to the election as fairly stable because things are so polarized. This is very difficult for people to sway each other's voters because people are so
Starting point is 01:22:57 divided. This is what we've talked about before, though, is to get normal Democrats to come back to norm to being normal Democrats, like people like Tulsi Gabbard, people like Kennedy, and having the ability to actually converse with people that have a different opinion, but stop treating people that you disagree with like they're evil and blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 01:23:19 And Destiny himself is absolutely terrible about talking to anyone that's that supports Trump. He doesn't get to say things like that and act like he's not calling for violence against Trump. They've all gotten worse because we've had Destiny on the show before. And I remember we played poker with him. We got along swimmingly. We we actually agreed on most things. And then I don't I don't see him as grifting. We were playing poker and he criticized Trump. And we had those debates, same as we would have him on the show.
Starting point is 01:23:47 But as of late, he and like Kyle Kalinske and Crystal Ball, for example. Idiots. They all went off their rocker. Calling for violence. All of them have called for violence. Like Destiny himself has said. Kyle Kalinske has called for violence. Actually, no, I can't say for sure if Kyle's called for violence.
Starting point is 01:24:04 But Destiny has definitely said, oh, I can't wait for sure if Kyle's going to. But Destiny has definitely said, oh, I can't wait. I want to see all the Trump supporters get killed. He's talking about during the like right after Trump was the assassination attempt, he was saying it's so good that what's his name got killed. And he was saying, I'll buy you a front row ticket for the next one.
Starting point is 01:24:19 This kid is garbage. And he's saying things like that. It's so ridiculous coming out of his stupid mouth. So you're a huge fan of him? You like him? Tell us how you really feel. He's a garbage kid. Well, he's like 30-something.
Starting point is 01:24:35 He acts like a child. I'm old. What happened to Kyle Kalinsky? He can't identify farms from a plane, so I'm not sure. He used to be super chill. He had defended Carl Benjamin in the past. I was like, he's a cool guy. We disagree on some things.
Starting point is 01:24:48 Now he's just posting like Destiny and Crystal Ball as well. I feel like they think that that's effective to bring people. Their views going down or something? Well, I don't know. Maybe it could be about their views, but I feel like they think that Trump is winning winning and that's why they're posting things like that i think that they they're like this helps i don't agree with them but still well i mean if they were if you're saying that they were rational people who have decided to start acting irrationally for on purpose that's their grifters i'm i'm fine with calling them grifters yeah i mean look at all the talk show hosts and all that that called for like
Starting point is 01:25:26 violence against yeah you know trump or trump supporters or i mean it's it's crazy what's that what's actually going down man i'm like can you imagine if somebody said to do something against kamala or whoever and then and then it actually happened what the what the repercussions would be like oh yeah blow back it's like it's such a double standard and i mean even to deny rfk you know they denied him president. They denied him Secret Service, what do you call it? Protection. Like, why, Joe Biden? Why would you do that? I mean, initially, when he asked for it a year out, they were like, well, we only have to provide it.
Starting point is 01:26:18 I think it's 100 days before the election. But then even when they had hit that more narrow window, they had still not provided it to him. So it went from being like this, this application of the law or policy into definitely something personal. And I think especially with the DNC, RFK is an interesting study because you would get this dual sided fight, right? They would have his family come out and say, you know, we want him to drop out and we all endorse Biden. And then they would also go after him legally in the states. They would try to get him off the ballot. And now that he's gone, they're doing this to Jill Stein. And so they say the corporate press is telling you he's a fringe candidate. He doesn't appeal
Starting point is 01:27:01 to anyone. He's crazy, whatever. But secretly, they know that his message is important and is appealing to all kinds of voters, because if he really wasn't a threat, they wouldn't have spent the money to to get him off the ballots legally. And also they wouldn't have put the pressure on the family to come out publicly against him. You know what happened to his sister and his niece right when he spoke out against the covid stuff i mean it's very his family's very hostile well his because his sister and his niece when he spoke out against the biden administration everything they were doing uh i think it was down near annapolis or somewhere down over there. They went during a Nor'easter in a raft without a life jacket and drowned.
Starting point is 01:27:53 In 2021? Right. Yeah, it was right after all the stuff was gone. I mean, if you look it up, when his sister and niece drowned in a Nor'easter in a rat in a in a rowboat with no life jackets like and they said that they they drowned uh that they died and i'm i i'm checking out i hadn't heard anything about that and his mom just died and i was reading all kinds of stuff no but this was like this was going back a few years ago i don't know i. I mean, what I so his mom, Ethel, just died. And she's a Democratic darling because she's this human rights advocate.
Starting point is 01:28:29 But what I actually found interesting is that he has a brother named Douglas Kennedy. He's one of the younger of that huge set of children. And in the early 2000s, he was involved in this sort of scuffle with some nurses because he had wanted to take his newborn baby outside for some fresh air. And eventually the nurses sued him. It's a really interesting case because rereading it, having lived through the more aggressive hospital policies of the COVID era, it does seem like there is this this you must comply with the things that we say mentality even then. So look at New York City city i remember every night at seven o'clock they all got on the fire escapes and they were banging the pots and the pans for the frontline nurses and they were the heroes and
Starting point is 01:29:19 right right right rightfully so i mean and then the minute that they said nope we are not going to take that shot they destroyed their careers well the when the nurses went out and blocked cars and were saying things like you should be locking down you shouldn't be driving and they had these photo photo opportunities the media praised it yeah when there were doctors and nurses saying i don't want to be forced to undergo a vaccine mandate, they were attacked as anti-vaxxers. Exactly. So it's like they're frontline heroes when they're standing in front of cars in New York City. But that's it. So Douglas Kennedy was sued by these nurses. And one of the things he said in the deposition that I find interesting is, you know, he was he's Kennedy. So he's obviously going to pursue a
Starting point is 01:30:01 career in media or politics. And he said, this ruined my career. I cannot get past this because having even the illusion that I had been aggressive with nurses is – you could never overcome it because nurses are saints, as they should be. But in this case, he felt like the nurses went after him wrongly. They were basically accusing him of kidnapping his child. He said that he had permission from his wife's physician and the other nurses on call. It's a really interesting story. But even then, and this was a decade before COVID, this challenge of, you know, there are hospital workers who do amazing work, who work really hard, who work in difficult circumstances, and we want to respect them versus the like potential creep
Starting point is 01:30:41 of authoritarianism in American culture was there. Absolutely. Yeah. I mean, I was in ground zero for the whole thing in the city, and, like, I couldn't believe. It's amazing that they were able to pull that off. The lockstep just around the entire planet. It just, they really rolled out this whole agenda that they plan on pulling off this 2030 crap that they got planned for everybody. And it's like,
Starting point is 01:31:18 do you think they could get that kind of compliance out of the American public? I think they're not going to be able to do it over something like a virus. But, you know, I was in New York City for 9-11. You know, I was it's going to be it'll be something else. They'll pull something else. And we'll see. Fear is fear is cause people to give up their rights, you know.
Starting point is 01:31:45 And look, they what did they they pass after 9-11? And they labeled it the Patriot Act. There was nothing patriotic. All right, we're going to go to Super Chat.

Starting point is 01:32:17 real men are afraid of women. Well, okay, if you say so. Scooby Dragon says, howdy people. Howdy. Howdy. Elf Tree Hug says, if you say so. Scooby Dragon says, howdy, people. Howdy. Howdy. Elf Tree Hug says, true unofficial poll. I walk around my California neighborhood, I see more Trump than Harris signs. And the ones with signs and decor, the Trump ones have way better Halloween decorations.
Starting point is 01:32:36 So we were in Newtown over this weekend, and we went to Philly. And we were just driving around Philly neighborhoods, and we saw a bunch of Trump flags everywhere. There were, I think it was fairly 50-50. We did see some Harris-Waltz, but the Harris-Waltz ones were little. They'd make a little sign here and there or something. The Trump ones, one in the window, one big flag on the front of a building. So it's hard to know for sure, but I can't say the fact that there are any Trump flags in a major urban center was kind of wild. Kind of wild. Yeah, I feel like, you know, we were talking about this the other day. I feel like the stigma of, you know, supporting Trump has been lifted for a lot of people.
Starting point is 01:33:20 And I think that that's part of why Trump is actually doing well in the polls, because I do think that there are still people out there that don't want to admit it. But I think that it's significantly less. The whole Trump is a racist thing is, to me, that's a rap because you see all the rappers and all the African-American people and Spanish people now are like, yo, I'm for Trump. I mean, you remember the Rainbow Coalition in the late 80s and 90s and Trump was working with Jesse Jackson and stuff? He got an award from the NAACP given to him by Jesse Jackson. He financed Jesse Jackson's campaign. I mean, the guy was like, you know, I remember going to fights at the Taj Mahal and Trump was hanging out with Tyson.
Starting point is 01:34:13 And I mean, you know, listen, you could say anything you want about the dude. But to start saying he's a racist and run on that when like you know the dude in contrast the dude hung out with everybody in new york he was hanging out with all the rappers from new york he's he's like a new york democrat in the 80s 90s and and he was on the view they loved him oprah loved him They all turned on him once he became the Republican candidate and won the presidency his entire four years. I mean, look, he did. Look what he accomplished in four years. And it's like he was dealing with lawsuits and all kinds of stuff. They would have just let him do his job like it's just crazy like
Starting point is 01:35:06 and in contrast i mean what we had biden say if you don't vote biden you're not really black and then we have kamala harris who was constantly only referencing and courting her voters based on race i mean there is a racially obsessed party in america but i do not think it's the Republicans. It's them. Like, I mean, you know, it's just... Let's jump to this next. We got this one from Carly. Tim, get Ronnie Radke on the show.
Starting point is 01:35:35 Looking at you, Phil. I would love to get Ronnie, but he's a very busy guy. Very busy. Busy indeed. Zachary Rosfeld says, hey, I miss you. I love you guys. What's your take on the new guy on Newsmax during your time slot? I'm not a fan. I choose you. I wouldn't know.
Starting point is 01:35:48 I'm live in this time slot. Does anybody know who that is? No one. We're all live. Yes, we are also live and are unaware of who is on Newsmax when we are on our show. But we are on X. Kitty says the assassination thing feels like someone with plausible deniability who is supposed to be in Trump's inner circle and get access with Trump when Trump would be vulnerable. Maybe, but Gary Mark says Vem said in his video statement the body cam will show he was the one who voluntarily informed cops he had weapons in the trunk.
Starting point is 01:36:23 Interesting. Chewy Rocha says, live what y'all do. Love what you do. Watch every night. Want to shout out my wife. Allowing me to watch while we wait for the arrival of our next baby boy. I cannot believe how many people watch the show while in the hospital with their
Starting point is 01:36:39 wives who are in labor. That's the craziest phenomenon to me. It's good that you're there with your wife. And it takes some time. Exactly. If the baby's not ready to come, you know, you gotta wait until the baby's put on time. You're in the hospital, your wife's in labor,
Starting point is 01:36:56 you put on them guests. It's a normal thing. I like that one meme. It's like, guess who decided not to cook tonight? I've seen a reel where the guy like comes in. He's like, so are you are you not making dinner then? Yeah, they cut to the woman like in the hospital gown. All right.
Starting point is 01:37:12 Lost Ronin says on YouTube, I get about 20 to one Kamala to Trump ad ratio seems shady to me. No, no, let me explain. What is likely happening is the Harris campaign is targeting people they know are not voting for them. So if they're targeting you, I'm curious, are you a man? Are you white? Go to college? Because likely what they're doing is they're going on Google ads and they're saying, play this ad for white men who didn't go to college. That's who they need to improve with. Trump doesn't need to convince you to vote for him because you're already going to do it. Kamala does, so she's blasting you with ads.
Starting point is 01:37:47 All right, Edward says, Dana Perino on Fox Newsroom. It wasn't Martha McCallum. She was the old one? She has been, yeah. I don't know if she's on now. Is she the one previously? Dana Perino's on there now. I'm not sure.
Starting point is 01:38:00 It probably was. Yeah, I think it was Martha McCallum, yeah. Yeah, Perino's great. She's good. Josh says, if Kamala does Fox, I hope he asks her to remove her earrings. That would be silly. That'd be silly. I mean, look, I've not seen her do a good interview
Starting point is 01:38:16 yet. I doubt the earrings are listening devices or whatever. If they are, it's not working. Did you see when the teleprompter went out and she like she well i don't know if that's true because the the prompter is usually for the moderators i tweeted that one i deleted it because there was one before that i didn't that i said this when they said that oprah had them i don't uh they said she had a teleprompter with oprah and then i
Starting point is 01:38:41 watched and they were wrong because the transcript didn't line up. But this next one, I saw, and I saw a bunch of people reporting that Kamala was asking questions from the teleprompter, and I read it, and I couldn't tell the difference between the transcript, so I tweeted it, but I deleted it because I believe that the prompter was likely for the moderator. I don't think Kamala's using a moderator. I mean, using a prompter. Because then she probably would sound more
Starting point is 01:39:00 coherent if she was. Alright. Also, he says he was also at the rnc going live talking about the venue he had vip passes at the rally doesn't sound like someone out to harm trump agreed agreed drifter says when you say your promo code for my pillow and you say no other code throw in a little joke for jack especially not some guy named Posobiak. You know, it's not about him. There are a lot of people trying to use those pillow codes. We don't need them. I don't even know who they're talking about.
Starting point is 01:39:31 Yeah, what are we talking about? No idea who that guy is. Even though I just went to an event and spoke with him. Spoke at the event that Jack also spoke at, I should say. What's his wife's name that she has a code to? Tanya. Tanya. They use the Tanya code. Let's go!
Starting point is 01:39:48 JKG says, still have the age of quarrel I bought in the 80s. Don't tread on me. Right on. Roman Manda says, Phil, I understand not trying to bring a fireman to the rally. That would be crazy, but are you saying we are a jerk if we want to leave the fireman in our car while we go in?
Starting point is 01:40:03 Is that wrong? I believe it is. Because someone's going to go in your car and take it and you're going to wonder how it is that crooks got a gun into this rally especially like i just don't think it's worth it secret service needs to be the only people and you know it's it's i get it you have a right so you know i stand off a little bit but my my view is let secret service be the guys with the guns at these rallies because someone's trying to kill donald trump and we like donald trump and we don't want him to be harmed yeah it's not about whether or not you have the right it's like look you're you're only gonna make problems for yourself and make things and if if you do end up getting caught with it and secret service has a problem with it. You're going to make a story for the press to talk about
Starting point is 01:40:45 and it's going to make your life harder. You can do what you want. I put it this way. I think you have a 2A right for sure. You also got a free speech right. And I also recognize that you have a right to sit at a dinner table with Donald Trump and start screaming at the top of your lungs.
Starting point is 01:41:01 That's protected speech. You're expressing your opinion. But if someone did that, I'd be like, this person should leave. You know what I mean? So that's why I'm not going so far as to say you should be banned from doing it. I'm saying you should just not do it. The Secret Service should be the ones in control. And in fact, I think Secret Service secure zones don't allow firearms. So we can have a debate over whether the law should or should not exist.
Starting point is 01:41:22 But I do believe you are not legally allowed to bring weapons. I can say this for going to Mar-a-Lago. They got signs everywhere saying Secret Service secured zone. Firearms not permitted. You can't bring in weapons, especially unless you're in the bushes. Well, I got arrested. You can't do it. The guy got arrested because he was trying to kill Trump.
Starting point is 01:41:40 So, no, you can't. And people should not bring weapons to a. Why is it? Why is it like the people that are against Trump? And where's the violence toward the like, you know, you know what I'm saying? It's like it's good that there's people on the right know what's going on and know the truth and want to see legal justice against those who are committing crimes. And they want to see people like Kamala Harris voted out. And the people on the left live in crackpot Wally conspiracy world where they think that Trump is the reincarnation of Adolf Hitler and they've lost their minds. All right, let's grab some more super chats.
Starting point is 01:42:16 Misfit Bratz is a mall for free speech, but corporate media that has a monopoly on informing the public shouldn't be allowed to knowingly lie on any platform. How does that help the public? It's scamming the public. Maybe there's, well, it's a challenge because you need to be able to prove a lie versus being wrong. And if there was a legal, the reason why we have anti-slap legislation is that you might be, you know, a low-level journalist, put out a story and a billionaire sues you into oblivion because they don't like the story and the story's true. So they create a mechanism by which you can't do that but then there's no simple
Starting point is 01:42:48 solution to fixing this well you know elon musk said to tucker i was in that same interview i was referencing earlier that if they get in kamala harris what they're going to do with his platform is they'll just sue him into oblivion. If anybody does anything and they posted about something on X and that causes somebody to do something, that he can be sued. And Tucker asked him if he's worried about his platform being taken down. And he's like, that's how they're going to do it. They'll pass some law or uh you know to me i'm a big advocate of first amendment i believe like every side should be able you know
Starting point is 01:43:35 if you're not calling for violence and everybody has a right to say, have free speech and voice their opinion. And it's like, it's actually become where like violence is threatened against you for speaking up what you feel. The left says you don't have a right to speak, but they have a right to threaten you with violence and then nothing happens. All right, here we go. Zach Trey says, thanks for the drumstick, Phil. Snuck my four-year-old daughter into the VIP at the Albany show.
Starting point is 01:44:08 You said you would try to get a stick to her. You solidified a new metal head that night towards my seventh show. Sick. Glad to hear it. Raising a new generation of fans. Gotta get them. Can we get some new punks?
Starting point is 01:44:21 Yeah, Salty says, everybody wants to be punk until it's time to do punk-ish. Everybody be punk until it's time to do punk-ish. Everybody's punk until it's time to do punk things. That's a good one. I feel like there's not a current punk movement. Look what they did to Johnny Rotten. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:44:37 Like, dude, it's disgusting. The Sex Pistols, like, they kicked the dude. They're doing a tour right now without Johnny Rotten. This is what happened to Mighty Mighty Boston, Sticky Barrett. I mean, you look at, like, the hardcore scene right now, the young crowd, it's all full of woke people. It's crazy. It's crazy.
Starting point is 01:44:59 It is absolutely. How did that happen? What happened? Because it's not actually underground anymore, I think, honestly. And I think the older dudes let him get a pass on, like, doing all this crap. And I'm like, as soon as I started speaking up against everything, like, I had people threaten me. And I'm like, all right, here's where I'm going to be.
Starting point is 01:45:20 Show up. You know? Nobody showed up, of course. I have a theory that I want to hear your opinion on. So, like, underground stuff, you used to have to go out and find it, right? Like, when I got into, like, death metal and stuff, I had to go and look for death metal bands. I had to go to, like, the certain record store that had hardcore and metal and, like, the underground stuff. Nowadays, because you don't have to look for it anymore.
Starting point is 01:45:45 All you have to do is go and do a Google search. Right. I feel like there's no real underground anymore because without that, without that effort that you have to put in to find the underground, it's just another form of music. And maybe it's not as popular, but it's not underground and dangerous the way that it used to. What do you think of that? Well, I'm going to tell you right now, I feel that there's a whole nother movement of revolutionary. Like to me, I met the bad brains in 1980
Starting point is 01:46:15 and everything that they were saying. I was a drug addict. I was crazy. I was in the Navy. I was smuggling. I was confused. I just got out of lockup and to hear what these dudes were saying it was this whole new revolutionary idea about destroy babylon and
Starting point is 01:46:37 all of these concepts and it just became a fashionable thing to say. And I feel like there's this new underground scene that's brewing. And I think it's really important for musicians especially to stand up and not be afraid to be shut down just because the mob is coming after you because they don't agree with something you said or a lyric that you said. So I feel, and I said this too, in my memoir I said that punk rock has been homogenized and dumbed down for mass consumption.
Starting point is 01:47:20 You know, all these bands, I mean, God bless Pete, but I was never a fan of The Offspring. I grew up on the more radical Discharge and Bad Brains and the DKs and, you know, bands like that. So to me, I was like never. The Offspring had a handful of songs back in the day. They had Tehran. Do you remember that? You remember the title? Yeah, I never cared. i never cared for this stuff i never liked some 41 i never liked a lot of these bands but this is this issue the offspring release smash become mainstream
Starting point is 01:47:57 successes and then turn into some 41 but they had there's they have a song from their self-titled album that i can't say on this show because of how extreme it was. Right. So the reason I mentioned the song Tehran, which they remade as Baghdad, is it's literally a song from, I think it's like 89, about the U.S. threats of invasion of Iran and criticizing the U.S. war machine. And then they, I think, what did they have? They had their self-titled, they ignition then they had smash smash they they wrote a bunch of songs that were more culture commentary become mainstream successes the the largest the the most the highest selling independent album ever still today and after that it was like okay columbia records it's now on the ombre we're gonna write some more soft poppy songs
Starting point is 01:48:40 then then they come back with americana and it's pretty fly for a white guy and why don't you get a job then then you could then they get what do they get conspiracy of one or whatever and you get original prankster and then i was out how about how about green day they put out an anti they were always garbage though yeah i know but let's just look at what's going on and now they're backing the candidate that dick cheney of all people yeah there is backing they only the only war machine is backing kamala harris the only reason green day came out with american idiot was because they were getting criticized for killing punk rock and they they were like because they had warning and they had this acoustic poppy garbage and i mean i say garbage but relative to the, like it's good pop music, right?
Starting point is 01:49:28 I listened to Green Day when I was a kid. And then they were like, oh yeah, we're punk. We're going to make American Idiot. And then they did. And they're literally criticizing people for being manipulated by the media. But the real issue was the label went to them. Likely, they were like, we need our street cred to sell products. We're going to be playing Warped Tour.
Starting point is 01:49:44 We got to be edgy. So we've got to do something that's going to line up with where young people are at. And then he had that famous moment. I can't remember what year it was. I don't know if you remember this, Phil, where Billy Joe Green Day was playing and they cut their set timer down to like one last song. And they still had like four or five songs left. And he looks up and he sees they're basically booing him off the stage. he's like i have been here since 1980s you don't do this to me that's what it was they were big in the 90s they were waning in the 2000s so he said let's criticize bush to be to stay relevant and you know when it worked they the that album was massive for them i think was actually their biggest album they got a broadway play a whole broad. The whole thing was, can I make money through these
Starting point is 01:50:26 corporations, and what do I have to say to do it? The idea that it was ever punk rock, no. It was corporate establishment then, and they're corporate establishment now. Yeah, absolutely. And the Offspring, talk about disappointments. They saw, they got dollar signs in their eyes. I'll give a shout out to Against Me. Are you familiar with Against Me?
Starting point is 01:50:42 Yeah. Because they had that song, Tonight We're Gonna Give It 35%, which is literally about selling out and signing the contract. Take the money from the corporation and be a big name and take what you can get. Well, that was the whole thing. I believe that
Starting point is 01:50:58 we were the first hardcore band to actually get a record deal through Profile, and they robbed us. i've never received a single dime off of any chromag album to this day wow really yeah we never we never got paid and there's a whole thing going on right now with the guy who owned profile records i mean we was you know our manager cross-collateralized our publishing and Profile wanted us and then Chris Williamson who did Rock Hotel was our manager and he said well you can have the Cro-Mags but
Starting point is 01:51:33 I want a subsidiary label and he put us on Profile Rock Hotel which was a conflict of interest because you can't be the manager and own the record company at the same time you're supposed to fight the record company to get us paid. Oh, wow. So to this day, I've never received a dime off of any Cro-Meg record. But it was like people were starting to talk crap and say, oh, yeah, you know, they sold out. They signed to this label. I'm like, yo, you sell out when you get like get like you know a half a million dollars to sign a
Starting point is 01:52:05 contract you know we got robbed you know so it's like we went we were traveling around in a broken down plumbing van from 1972 on the motorhead tour lemmy was laughing about it like you know when are you guys gonna break down again like you know brutal sleeping on people's floors and you know that's we you know this whole thing that came around in the 90s and then oh i gotta get the the record deal and i'm on salary and the tour bus and the tour support and all this stuff i'm like you never paid your dues dude like you know it was always corporate all right we got this from Larissa. Obligatory super chat for Hannah Clare.
Starting point is 01:52:48 I'm currently in the hospital to deliver mine and my husband's fourth baby. I've watched regularly since 2020, and I listened to IRL with my last L&D. Stay in 2020, 2021. These are the best super chats. I'll give you my obligatory congratulations on uh surpassing the replacement rate i think if you have two more you're double replacement so just keep that in mind but yeah have a safe labor the question is did they conceive the child listening to the podcast i don't want to know that is this like the the guy the the dad is with the wife and they're
Starting point is 01:53:19 holding hands while she's in labor and the baby's coming and he's holding up the phone it's like just hold. Turn the volume up. Stop that crying. I hope everything goes smoothly. I hope your labor is very safe. Oxio says, Phil is divine. Cheers.
Starting point is 01:53:38 Jeffrey Jackson says, just want to plug the Tucker Carlson Tucker interview with Harmeet Dhillon. She talks about Kamala's long history of unethical and illegal activities with receipts oh it's good yeah yeah jtrw says i've never seen a presidential candidate get up after being shot shout fight fight fight that's the most badass thing i've ever seen a former and likely current president do in my entire life and i'll say it again because the democrats go what an idiot he stood up while getting shot and it's like,
Starting point is 01:54:05 yeah. And if he fell down and crawled away, you'd say, what a loser he was crawling and hiding. So the only thing he could do is take a strength, a strong position, a position of strength. And that's what he did.
Starting point is 01:54:15 And he went back to Butler. He did. That was pretty wild. And he started by saying, as I was saying, yeah. And the crowd just freaked out. They were so happy. So good. As I was saying. And the crowd just freaked out. They were so happy.
Starting point is 01:54:27 So good. As I was saying. I mean, you know, the thing is, everybody's talking about that whole first thing in Butler. Nobody brings up the fact somebody was killed.
Starting point is 01:54:38 They talked about it a lot at the rally. I think that was... No, but I'm saying like... The media doesn't talk about it. The media is... It's lip service. They'll acknowledge it maybe.
Starting point is 01:54:48 You know, yeah. But I don't think that's true of like the MAGA Trump supporters that went out there. Oh, no, no, no, no. I think it's very much on their minds that this was, you know, deeply personal on a lot of levels.
Starting point is 01:54:59 JTRW says, just want to say the lead singer of All That Remains being on the show is so badass. I grew up listening to that music. Cheers, man. Thank you. And still, you grew up today with more of it. New album.
Starting point is 01:55:11 So what's the timeline on the next album? Got another song coming very soon. Very, very soon. And then the record will announce, I think we're going to announce in December when it comes out. So you've released Divine the Single. We've released three songs. We're going to do a fourth, and then I think we're going to announce in December when it comes out. So you've released Divine the single. We've released three songs.
Starting point is 01:55:27 We're going to do a fourth. And then I think when we release a fifth song, then we're going to announce when the record comes out. Can I make a plug here? Sure. So Blood Clot, my new band with Tom Capone, Darren, and Christian, he plays with Cypress Hill. Okay.
Starting point is 01:55:45 And Violence, and he was in Fear Factory. Yep. We're doing an EP. Nice. So. Keep an eye out. Shows together. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:55:57 All right. We'd love to open up for you guys. That'd be sick. That'd be real sick. Yeah, absolutely. I assume Tim and I get to come too. Of course. We get to tour with you.
Starting point is 01:56:04 Of course. My idea too was to have these concerts of everybody that's like revolutionary now no matter what genre music like if you're reggae and you're speaking out against the establishment if you're country if you're rock if you're punk if you're hardcore
Starting point is 01:56:18 I want to do this my idea is to do a festival yeah Angela McArdle we were at the Rescue the Republic My idea is to do a festival. Yeah. Create minds, think alike. Angela McArdle, we were at the Rescue the Republic event talking about this. And so she's very clever and very good at this stuff we've been talking. So we'll see. Can I ask a question?
Starting point is 01:56:37 Sure. Because my friend went there. Why do you think the turnout for that was? They didn't market it at all. I didn't even know it was happening. I live here. Yeah. And then this is a true story so i go to allison and i was like i saw i think i saw something from pete where he said he was going to be in dc
Starting point is 01:56:53 and then i was like oh hey allison uh the defiance playing dc do you want to go and she's like oh yeah because we love those guys and uh they're they're it's it's it's a great show and we're friends and then i was like i looked up on the phone i, oh, actually it's like this big political thing going on. And that was like a week before. So I texted Angela. I was like, hey, can I come to this? And she's like, sure. Like, we'll get you passes and everything.
Starting point is 01:57:12 And I was just like, I don't, why didn't they invite me? Are they mad at me? Like I would have promoted, I told her, I was like, if you had told me about this when it was confirmed, I would have shouted it out every night on the show. And we would have quadrupled turnout. We would have made it a big thing. Because it was huge online, but nobody knew it was there.
Starting point is 01:57:31 I was thinking like just after the whole January 6th thing that a lot of people just didn't know what the hell was going to go down. Nobody knew. Just nobody knew. Bad marketing, right? Bad marketing. Online, it was huge. They got like a million hits. Yeah. And in person, marketing uh online it was huge they got like a million hits yeah and uh in person i still think it was a couple thousand so but it should it should have been 10 20 000 exactly and uh you know watching the defiant play is always is always
Starting point is 01:58:00 incredible so i was adamant i was like, when The Defiant goes up on stage, I want to be backstage watching that. Shout out to Mike Ness from Social D bringing them out on the West Coast tour. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're opening up for Social Distortion. And I asked him, I was like, because obviously,
Starting point is 01:58:17 you know, if you got a bunch of members of the band who are pushing back on a lot of this stuff, speaking out against it, I was like, so it sounds like Social D's actual punk rock. And they're like, yep.
Starting point is 01:58:28 Gotta watch. I was getting ready to curse there. Absolutely. I love Mike Ness, man. Like, I go, you know, remember him from way, way, way back. All right, everybody. Smash that like button.

Starting point is 01:59:46 You know, shout out to you in New York City, brother, man. Much love and staying true to speaking up for the... Pete plays drums for us, and it's an honor and a privilege. The first song I ever learned on the guitar was The Kids Aren't Alright by The Offspring. Oh, yeah. I was like 12. Technically, you could say the first song
Starting point is 02:00:06 I learned was Mary Had a Little Lamb or something. That doesn't count. My guitar teacher was making me do it, and I was just like, I'm not going to do it, and so I didn't. And then when I came back in, he asked me if I had figured out, only on the high E did I play Mary Had a Little Lamb, and I was like, no, but I can play... And then he was like, let me show you how to do that right,
Starting point is 02:00:21 because my hands were all wrong. But so it is pretty wild to then later in life get to meet Pete and have him work on music with us. So it's a childhood dream come true. Can I just shout out the new book, Destroying Monsters? It's my battle with addiction. I lost my brother to it. I think the lockdowns caused a lot of depression, a lot of new addicts, a lot of addicts that were in recovery relapsed. And this book I wrote, I started about three years ago.
Starting point is 02:00:54 My brother passed away. He was a disabled veteran during the lockdowns. They isolated him and he just slipped away and and through depression and stuff like that but uh i got quotes back here from you know joe rogan frank gorilla a bunch of people but it's my journey with addiction is the first half and then the second half of it is uh you know how to overcome it i got 23 years clean and sober now and it's available on my website john joseph discipline um right on dot com and uh cool you know so yeah pick it up man if you're struggling you know i look at it like i call it my recovery tribe and everything we're doing we have to look out for other people and have compassion and i feel everything that's gone on is so been so divisive
Starting point is 02:01:47 to everybody in this country. Everybody's at each other's throats. And I think we need to come together, stand up, fight for our rights and, you know, like help each other out enough for this, like backstabbing and cutthroat mentality that seems to be getting worse and worse and worse. And I saw somebody say that online. They were like, yo, it's not us against us. It's supposed to be us against them. We need to get back to that. Right on.
