Donald Trump has helped coordinate an epic, amazing, historic peace deal between the United Arab Emirates and Israel, and I was shocked. You know, normally when I do my early segments on my main channels, I have a bunch of stories lined up and I sit there going through them, fact checking, and I'm thinking, you know, what story is going to be the main story? Like, what am I going to choose? And then I'm sitting here, and all of a sudden, they're like, boom, Donald Trump, peace. Like, we have an Arabic nation recognizing the existence of Israel, normalizing economics, trade, direct flights.

They're going to be opening up mosques for Muslim individuals to come in and pray. So this is a very, very big deal. And, of course, there are haters saying that he didn't really do anything significant and then there are people now calling for donald trump to get the nobel peace prize and i'm sorry i have no argument against that to be completely honest because i mean obama i don't know what obama got the peace prize, do you? I have no idea. Yeah. I have no idea.

And maybe I should. But I think it's a big deal. I think it's a really, really big deal. And we're going to talk about that. We've got a bunch of other stories. Seriously big news. Yale has been found to discriminate against white people and Asian people. And so we're going to riff on this.

I want to go over what's going on in California. Most of you are probably aware Crowder got his monetization back, so we got some fun stuff to talk about. We'll go through it. But the big news that everybody is waiting for, Adam's not on the show. It's me. Hello. It's Lydia. Sour Patch Lids of producer fame. Lydia is the producer and Adam is not on the show. And I know that everybody thinks there's

like some, I'm seeing all these conspiracy theories and I'm just like, I don't know what to tell you, man. Look, everybody's friends. We're all trying to make sure that everybody has an opportunity to be entertained and informed and do their thing. And Adam's literally setting up cameras and building a studio like 30 feet away. And it's just sometimes there are things that happen in people's personal lives it's none of my business and uh it's nothing to do with any grand conspiracy like some people were like youtube came and they were like you have to i'm like he's got his own channel what are you talking about like youtube didn't come and say anything it's just you know uh things i

don't know it's personal issues that's more though. I know. I know a lot of people hope that there was a lot more exciting things to talk about, but that's about it. So I'm going to be hanging out here with Lydia. Yeah, man. I'm going to be live producing while we do the show. So you guys are welcome to give me constructive feedback. Rag on her. For sure.

Rag on me. I can handle it. I got thick skin. We're going to be riffing on a conversation, talking about a lot of the stuff, and it's going to be, I're going to be riffing on a conversation, talking about a lot of the stuff and it's going to be, I mean, hopefully relatively similar. I know that, you know,

with Adam, there was more of like, you know, his views and back and forth and we're just going to do our thing. And, uh, you know, I'll say if,

if Adam's got his show, it's on YouTube, it's Adam cast IRL. He's doing his show. He's setting it up and that's about it. So, uh, you can check out his stuff.

You can follow him on Twitter. We literally just had pizza like an hour ago, hanging out. i know a lot of people want to think there's like some grand conspiracy there really isn't it's really just you know you can probably imagine the things in your normal daily life i i can't really talk about it it's not my business you know what i mean so just stuff happens what are we gonna say so yeah we got a but we got a bunch of stuff though i see i see the chat is is yelling no peace who will spin the ufo uh lydia will i can do it yeah i think so so but i'll tell you this look there's there's um a slightly different direction i suppose we're going to be booking guests we're

going to be um setting up the new studio soon we're getting we are getting held up really, really bad because of COVID. It it really sucks. And I just got news back from, you know, I got to keep the business people involved in the expansion, you know, with with, you know, relocating to new property and we're just getting held up as bad. But we'll be booking people. We're going to be booking guests. A lot of people who have wanted to come on the show can't because of the COVID lockdown. And then once we relocate, it should be a little bit better. And then we'll be able to have more conversations. But I do want to mention we're going to have the goal of trying to bring on regular Joes. You know, regular Joes and Janes.

Yeah, I'm excited. Yeah, regular people. Because I think, you know, initially what I wanted to do with this show, the reason why it's called In Real Life was that it was going to be in a van driving around and we were gonna i was gonna go i was gonna do my main shows and then i was gonna stop and then talk to regular people and then because of the impracticalities of it and then eventually you know so i because of the impracticalities i was like let's just do a sit down podcast you know conversation thing and then covet happened and all of a sudden we couldn't book guests anymore we had like what four guests yeah we had four or five and it was so fun to have them and i really enjoyed booking them and those conversations so i cannot wait to get back to that yeah and then covet man it's

brutal it's really really brutal but i'll tell you what um if it's up to you if you if you want to smash the like but i know it's it's there's no there's no Hulk hands. And I, you know, I respect the criticism. Anybody who wants to say it, it's nothing. You know, it is what it is. So if you if you do like the show, if you do respect it, then I appreciate smash the like button, subscribe notification bell. We're still going to be doing the show every Monday through Friday, live 8 p.m. And we've we've been trying to line up guests for quite some time. But people seriously have been like some people gung hoho about not caring about covid some people really adamant about like no covid you know i can't do it but it seems like things are starting to ease up and more importantly we're trying to

relocate really really you know we're trying to relocate so if we do then we can get on the road with all that stuff but that being said it's time that we talk about the news but i i do see that the chat is exploding there's's nothing I can do. So, I mean, I can keep going. I can take the day off. I hope you all realize I work 16 hours a day every day with no days off. And if you're not happy, you know, but I'm going to do the show. So I don't know what else you guys want me to say or do.

But we're going to talk about the news here. Let's do it. The first story we have for everybody. National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien. Trump should get Nobel Peace Prize for Israel UAE deal. This is from Just the News. John Solomon's outlets, a senior White House advisor, Jared Kushner and National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien fielded questions in the wake of the historic announcement of an agreement normalizing diplomatic relations between Israel and the UAE. Now, I don't I National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien.

Sure. I mean, does this do you know who that is? His opinion? I'm not real familiar with him. All right. Well, I'll tell you what. I'll tell you whose opinion does matter. Cat turd.

Yes, of course. I hopped over to Twitter. Nobel Peace Prize. Yeah. If you look on Twitter, they're actually talking about it. Cat turd says President Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. You've got Nick Adams. I'm not sure who a lot of these people are, to be honest. Best-selling author endorsed by POTUS. Many people cheering, and it became actually, check this out, a trending topic on Twitter. Nobel Peace Prize. People are

calling for Trump to win the Nobel Peace Prize after he announced an agreement to normalize diplomatic relations between Israel and the UAE. It's cool stuff. So what does that mean? What's going on? Do you want to? Yeah. So you want me to read through this? Yeah, do it to it. Yeah. So we have, we're just talking about Israel and the United Arab Emirates just finally normalizing relations and the shift in the Middle East politics. Most important, I think think from this is the west bank annexation and they're putting it on hold so this isn't like totally fixing everything to me this seems a little bit like a band-aid which may be an unfair characterization honestly if they're calling for

him to get like a nobel peace prize that's his fans i know i know his fans are saying give trump a peace prize i mean i gotta be honest if obama got one for whatever. He bombed people. Didn't he bomb American citizens? He Obama did kill an American citizen. That's true. Dude. Abdul Rahman Al-Awlaki. Oh, actually, a couple of them. Yeah, that was.

Yeah, that's why I'm I'm really impressed by it. Yeah, I think it's fantastic. So, well, look, basically, there are a lot of people who act like the Emirates and Israel have are there. I'm trying to be careful here, but people have called them proxy states of the United States. Of the United States. Really?

Yes. Israel is a proxy state. Yes. That's what they're arguing. And so of American imperialism or whatever. And this is what I've seen from the anti-war left. And to me, I think you've got an Arabic nation now recognizing the existence of Israel. That's fantastic. Yeah. And they're going to tourism, direct flights, economics. That's great, dude. I'm excited. Like I never thought that I would

see this. I did not think this would happen. Yeah. I mean, we'll see if anything comes of it. The bigger concern is that will it hold? Will there will there be peace? Trump was asked about this in a press conference and he basically uh he deferred i can't remember who he deferred to but they were like we've put all our eggs in this basket yeah and we have a deal so that's what we're we're betting on yeah foreign policy stuff it's so it's so easy and unique it's so easy to talk about isn't it you guys foreign yeah it is really easy. We got all the answers. Yeah. These are some of the biggest issues I care about when it comes to electoral politics.

So, you know, in the past, like I've mentioned before, Barack Obama, they called him Obama. Right. Yeah. He killed a lot of people. And when it came to getting away with it, it was basically like if they're of military age in the Middle East, that was it. Yeah, I don't like that for obvious reasons. Because once you hit a certain age and suddenly you're cannon fodder or whatever, that's awful. That's how they do it.

So that wasn't new for Obama, though, was it? No, I mean, you mean like president-wise? Yeah. No, they all did it. Well, they all thought that a certain age meant that you could just blow them up yeah but i think it was actually that they were killing civilians yeah and they needed a way to justify killing civilians that's not nice yeah you know i i wonder about what makes up the current trump base like what what who was it somebody said that Tulsi Gabbard might speak at the RNC. I was watching because I was

really intrigued by this because John Kasich was speaking at the DNC and then Tulsi Gabbard was being considered to speak at the RNC. And I was like, this is the greatest crossover of all time. I thought it was really funny. I would say if we got away with Tulsi and they had John Kasich, we had

definitely won that round. holy cow weird whatever is going on there's like I don't I don't I don't understand how you can have so look the the criticism I'm seeing of Trump from the left is that this is not a real deal right that he held off at the very last minute for uh you know a re-election bump and that these are two states that already work for you already work at the behest of the U.S., so it's no big deal. I disagree. I disagree. I think this is major, and this major announcement means that other nations and people will start to reflect on this and stuff.

And now we have, I guess, Tulsi Gabbard. I don't know if this is confirmed. I don't think it is. I think they were just kind of spitballing it. Yeah, it'd be cool, right? But she's a progressive, I mean, if you lookard. I don't know. I don't know if it's confirmed. I don't think it is. Okay. I mean, it'd be great on it. Yeah, but she's a progressive. I mean, if you look at her record, she is, but she's consistently been about anti-war and it's resulted in her for some reason being more aligned with Trump supporters. And that's the weirdest thing to me.

That is weird. I mean, but it's almost like we're seeing a redefinition of both parties. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The Republicans, the actual Republican base today feels so different from where the Republicans were even with Mitt Romney. Yeah. And I don't understand. A lot has changed over the last like five years, I would say.

Like what? I feel like everything has shifted because from what I recall when I was growing up, I don't remember my family's attitude toward the idea of a war, but it was never considered like that. We were not pacifists. We did not think it was a big deal. We thought it was part of being American, just kind of being involved overseas, which is obviously subject to debate. But then over time, I started noticing that the Democrats were only interested in being against war when it helped their narrative. And I was like, what's going on here? Why is no one being consistent? And Republicans started to be the

ones who were like, no, war is bad. We got to get out of there. Most of them, not all of them. Your family's conservative? Yeah. Yeah. How do they feel about the war with like during George W. Bush? They were kind of hands off about it. Like they didn't think it was a good thing. But I think that we thought that they had a really good goal being over there especially after 9-11 because following up with that they were like this is something important that we need to do we need to make sure this doesn't happen again yeah and it was bs but it really was the new york times and the media and many outlets who who told

us that we were facing these threats and then when it came to brock obama who was like i'm i i don't know what was mccain's position was he for he don't know. What was McCain's position? Was he for? He was so pro-war. Yeah. He was like Bolton. Seriously. Right, right, right, right. That's why, like, it's really funny when McCain died.

And I, you know, with all due respect, every, everybody on Twitter, every political spectrum was just, like, not having it. Right. Like, they don't like the guy. Yeah. And there was a meme was a political compass and in the center it was like an npc saying you know like love and respect for you know service and duty or something right and then every faction the authoritarian left the

libertarian left were like f mccain or whatever and it was funny because like i was i i didn't think it was like tepid or centrist to to, you know, I can respect him. You know, he died. I guess that makes me milquetoast centrist. See, I don't really agree with that either, because I think that you can totally make the statement that he because he was partially his arms are partially paralyzed because what he went through overseas. Right. They tortured him.

That is a heroic act. Like and two things I think can really be true at once, especially in the case of John McCain. He was extremely heroic. He saved a bunch of his men. But then he did not become someone who loved peace. He continued to like the idea of war. And I didn't square that in my mind. You know what bothers me a lot about, like, especially where Republicans used to be?

Because this is the point of what I'm trying to get to. Everything's very different now. Yeah. Like, for some reason, you've got, there were more Republicans supporting Trump withdrawing from Afghanistan than there were Democrats. Mind you, there were only eight. There were so few of them.

And there were three Democrats. Yeah. So, I mean, look, both parties suck. You know, Trump's something totally different, you know, whether he gets a peace prize or whatever. But with Obama, they were pro war to an insane degree. All the liberals just shut up. Yeah.

And that to me was like that. I was like, you know, I mean, what is this? I felt like it was it was 2008, you know. Yeah. Hope and change, bring the troops back and all these really great things. And it was not not true. And I think, you know, when you look at the legacy of Barack Obama with the National Defense Authorization Act with bolstering, you know, our forces in the Middle East and all of the extrajudicial extrajudicial assassination of American citizens, you know,

it this is this is rough. I know domestic policy is really important. But for me, where, you know, how I viewed the world and how people viewed us and really getting to as close as we can to something we can consider to be utopian, which would probably just be, you know, carrying on in a, you know, freedom, libertarian capitalist system of some sort with a mix, like a mixed economy, some kind of social safety net. Then I think, you you know worldly affairs are really really important and i'm thinking like how can we actually function as a country if we just routinely do these things and how can we have a constitution when you actually have a president who straight up says if you're an american but you're in a different country i can i can drop a bomb on you right and

he talks about having a pen and a phone and just bypassing all of the stuff that was put into place to make sure that presidents didn't sit down with a pen and a phone and do all this stuff. And like the kind of thing that Democrats are complaining about now with Trump, these things that are that the executive branch shouldn't have control over. It's just grown too much. They just keep doing it. Obama. I mean, how did we enter Libya? Like, you remember all that? Yeah. Obama. Yeah.

Yeah. And it was like, you can't. The president can't just do that. And he just did it. And they were like, well, whatever. Well, and it's been that way nonstop. And so, you know, early on in Trump's several years ago, he fired a bunch of missiles into Syria.

Right. All of a sudden we saw these pundits like truly a presidential candidate, you know, or not candidate, but truly so presidential so presidential no it's not strange they want they they they support the war machine yeah and here's what i here's what i think is happening right now it seems like someone accidentally allowed real americans to win an election yeah with donald trump what's up with that it was an accident there. There was like that Pied Piper email from the DNC. Do you remember that one? No.

It was like Donald Trump is a Pied Piper candidate that would basically they wanted Trump to be prominent because it would make them lose. Wow. And it made him win. Really? Talk about how stupid that was. Interesting. Yeah, but I think about like it's really become obvious when you have a two-party system and then you get a president who's straight up like i'm over this let's pull our troops out and all of a sudden now you have the never trumpers the the republican establishment who ran with their tails between their legs begging banging

on the door of the democratic establishment help us help us you know and they're pro-war and they and you and and the democrats are like okay come on in and now they're basically doing like war games and other stupid you know whatever together and they're all pro-war and then they run this media narrative that's like very obviously pro-war i read an article from defense one where they're like something really weird is happening where for some reason congress is stopping the president from ending the use of force in a foreign country never it doesn't happen that way. But I think what we're seeing is with Trump and with his efforts to withdraw forces and now the Middle Eastern peace deal, these are bad for the military industrial complex. These are bad for these big companies. They want to go on big adventures. They want to be big machines that churn out economic value.

Donald Trump talked about selling weapons to Saudi Arabia and all this stuff and things that people are very critical about. And now we see this happening. And now the Trump supporters, which it includes people who were liberal before. Right. What am I supposed to say? You know, like Donald Trump has just coordinated this Middle Eastern peace deal, whether or not he's deserving of all of the credit or some of the credit or whatever. It's him. It's him. And I absolutely think that Israel and UAE deserve lots of credit for this. It's really hard to come to the table. And there's a lot of political issues involved and probably historical hate. And Trump, they said he had a vision. He had a meeting. He brought them together at an event, I guess.

And he said, I want to do this. And they both were like, we're interested in talking. And he helped make this happen. So what am I supposed to say to people? I have friends of mine who are like, donate to Biden. You have to. Trump can't win. And I'm like, what?

Middle Eastern peace deal, man. Yeah, dude. What am I supposed to do now? I've been talking to some people who hate Biden. Some prominent people, some high profile people who are like, Middle Eastern peace deal. Yeah, dude. What am I supposed to do now? Yeah. I've been talking to some people who hate Biden, some prominent people, some high profile people who are like, I can't vote for Trump, man. And I'm like, I hear you, you know, and it's and I'm I'm pretty upset. Like I'm it's for me, it's begrudgingly. Yeah, I'm right now.

As of right now, I probably will. And especially with Kamala Harris. Dude, the issue, though, too though too is like i don't know how i feel about mike pence but i'll tell you this if we get middle eastern peace if i mean that i can't i can't even put in the words the feeling like i have yeah because of this i'm like my jaw hit the floor and i see the haters and i'm like can you give him one day and they're like it doesn't really mean anything i'm like dude are you give him one day? And they're like, it doesn't really mean anything. I'm like, dude, are you kidding me?

You can't even if you can't even go to these countries if you've ever been to Israel. And now we're starting to see a crack break where it's like there can be peace and it might not be perfect. These things, things like this may have happened in the past, but to this extent, I'm stoked on it. Right. Yeah. Yeah. But there's still people saying, nah. This reminds me a little bit of the North Korea thing that they came up with. Because I remember everybody, I was like, this is another thing. This is the first time I started thinking, you know, I've never, this is something I never thought I'd see.

I thought we'd always be at war. I thought they would always be threatening to bomb somebody in order to get some kind of aid from us. Because my parents told me that was how it was. That was what they did. They would threaten to do things and we would give them help. And I was like, oh, that sounds like a really wonderful situation. Maybe we should do something about that. So when he kind of pulled that off or he made headway there,

I was really impressed. And to me, doing this is even more impressive because it's not just North Korea. It's not just one country. It's two different countries that have been totally at odds. And then President Trump, who supposedly has absolutely no standing in the world, kind of bringing them together and using coronavirus as a kind of... Right, right. That's one of the things they're doing. Yeah. So that was amazing to me. I was like, this is really smart. This is very clever diplomacy.

Yeah. So one of the things they're doing is they're gonna be working together on a COVID vaccine. And that, it's great. I mean, this is all great. Yeah. So one of the things they're doing is they're gonna be working together on a COVID vaccine. And that it's great. I mean, this is all this is all great. Yeah. When when Trump started talking with North Korea, and the deal, like to try and work towards peace, I think it's kind of not really gone so well, right? North Korea kind of does their thing. And he got roasted for it. And what really bothered me is, you know, Donald Trump walked in to North Korea with no security. I was just, man, once again, I'm shocked. I'm like, peace is possible. So here's my question. For all the people who are complaining about Trump and all the things he's bad at now, like, yeah, like so. So I saw somebody mentioned like, you know, Tim, you say you don't like Trump's character. Who should he act more like?

And I'm like, it's a good it's a good point. You know, people made fun of George W. Bush. But I'll be honest. I think Trump has done a lot better in the past couple of years relative to where he was when he first got elected. And I can I can recognize that. Right. And I think it really comes down to, you know, finer points on issues related to social

liberalism, just like old school wedge issues that still kind of exist. You know what really bothers me about Trump? And this is not really a popular view, I don't think, because I don't know how many people even think about this anymore. But the budget really, really bothers me. Oh, the national debt. The national debt. And I think that people who are thinking about the future are bothered by it.

And Trump doesn't seem to mind. Like, I don't know how he used to run his business. Maybe this is why some of them went into the ground. But he doesn't just seem interested in. There was only there was only there was only a few of his businesses that were bankruptcies. Right. He had hundreds. Yeah.

OK, that's fair. Yeah, I know. I hear this all the time. And I'm like, bankruptcy doesn't mean you're a failure. It means you're strategically trying to you know right but i i kind of thought when he was elected that being a businessman would help him like pay really close attention to the deficit no it's wrong yeah way off on that there are a lot of benefits to a business person in government but i i think we see often in the in the look man businesses are authoritarian yeah totally Like, you start your own company.

You can do whatever you want. You hire who you want. You fire who you want. Within the law, there's still legal issues here. But you can snap your fingers and be like, you know what we need? We need a giant vat of grape jelly. Yes. And your employees are going to be like, we're a sock company.

What do we need? Just get me the jelly. And you slam the table and they go do it. Yep. Yeah. And so when Trump, you go into government, Trump sits in the room and he says, here's what you need to do.

And he ends up with, I can't remember which one of his advisors saying like, you can't do that. Yeah. I think a few of them have said that. Yeah. And they're like, it's the legal channels. It's the red tape.

And then he's like, why? You know, then the media comes after him. They're like, look what he's it's the it's the red tape and then he's like why you know then the media comes after him they're like look what he's doing he's doing illegal things and it's like and they misframe everything right of course so now it's really really it's gonna be really really tough for them to drag him over this but uh earlier when i covered this when it first broke like this is what i was saying earlier normally i'll have like i've got a bunch of stories pulled up there are a bunch of things i know i want to talk about then this dropped and i was like wow that's it yeah and so i pulled it up on my i don't know and i wanted to be fair i got some criticism from other people to highlight but it reminded me of it was i think

who was it nate silver nate from 538 when he tweeted you won't even give the libs won't even give trump one good day and that was when he killed uh al-baghdadi yeah the who was the leader of isis the austere religious scholar as i recall yes this this to me like when i saw the note that came out the statement that came out from the world leaders trump and netanyahu and i think it's a sheik muhammad zayed is the crown prince of UAE. And I saw these people ragging on him. The craziest thing was the people who are too dumb to understand what it was. And this this bums me out, man. You know, they don't they don't understand when it's I don't get it. I really I just don't get it. How could I grow up

hearing that war is bad, war is bad, war is bad, you know, from the left, from the liberals, and now they don't care or they support it. I've actually had a progressive friend of mine say, well, you know, when it comes to war. Oh, please. I try to be consistent and there are things that I value. And my position on war has a lot to do with the death penalty. Right. And the justification of whether or not we should be doing the things we're doing.

Right. So, you know what, man? If this leads Trump to the Nobel Peace Prize or whatever. So be it, man. Seriously. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know.

I think that's really cool i think that's fantastic honestly i think that this kind of work between these two different countries and kind of facilitating this is fully deserving of a peace prize way more i don't know what constitutes a peace prize that's true maybe i should look into that but because that would be kind of interesting too right you want to look up what obama got his peace prize prize for yeah let me see i'm gonna i want to i want to do this listen i think i try i try I try not to beat the dead horse when it comes to issues of foreign war, Middle Eastern conflict, all of this stuff. But it really is like, these are my issues. That's why I really like Tulsi Gabbard. She's not

running and whatever. That's why I think it's really cool that she might speak. I don't know what the deal is, whether she'd speak at the RNnc or something but i love it um i know that there are other people that i also respect to disagree i think dan crenshaw i think he's fantastic i tremendous respect for the guy and i think he disagrees i think he think he said we need a presence over there but this is this is it for me it's something that i find uh really really important but we have an we have another story so you want to talk about obama real quick yeah let me talk about him real quick because I was able to find it. So let me go through this with you guys.

So it says the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to the U.S. President Barack Obama for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between people. Hey, you know what Trump just did today? He seriously strengthened international diplomacy and cooperation between these two countries that were at odds i got i got a question though yeah uh didn't obama assume office in like january january 20th 2009 2009 2008 9 the election was in 08 and then in 09 he assumes office like immediate yeah they kind of just gave him the award literally so i i'm wondering oh yeah you want to look at it there you go what what did he have to do to uh earn no i don't think

earn is the right word here what the heck so uh he accepted the peace prize december he was uh they announced the award october 9th 2009. Citing Obama's promotion of nuclear nonproliferation and a new climate in international relations fostered by Obama, especially in reaching out to the Muslim world. The Nobel Committee's decision drew mixed reactions from U.S. commentators and editorial writers across the political spectrum, as well as the rest of the world. Interesting. Look at this. He accepted the award on December 10th, 2009.

In a 36-minute speech, he discussed the tensions between war and peace and the idea of a just war, saying, perhaps the most profound issue surrounding my receipt of this prize is the fact that I am the commander-in-chief of the military of a nation in the midst of two wars. Obama is the fourth president of the United States to have won the Nobel Peace Prize after Teddy Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, Jimmy Carter, and Carter's honor happened after leaving office. Wow. Okay. So after that, Obama added more troops and then sent a bunch of drones and the drones done blew people up. Yep. Yeah. Yeah. I do have to say it was surprisingly self-aware of him to talk about the country being in two different wars at the time that he received this prize. Yeah.

Thanks for pointing that out, dude. We noticed that. Yeah. And a lot of people made the joke. They were like, maybe Obama should give the award back once he started blowing up military aged men. Yep. There are a couple people, and I'm not entirely sure, so definitely fact check me.

I think Obama killed four people that were american citizens without charge or trial and the scariest thing and this is credit to luke rudkowski of we are change he was speaking to people at the um it was it was the i think it was the debates right i don't know if you know this it was the debates and i think it was the debates they got some interviews and they asked people you know, Obama used a drone strike to kill a 16-year-old American citizen without charge or trial. And the response was, yeah, well, he should have had a better dad. What? Yeah, I think that.

I'm not sure who said that. It's been a long time. This was back in like 2011 or 2012. Wow. Yeah. And where was the news? Where was the media? We get dragged into the stuff by a biased fake news. Man, you know what I think? It's there's a lot of people in this country who just trust the news. And when the news says it, they're like, why not? When Trump comes out and challenges that, you've got a bunch of NPCs.

And they're thinking like, but the news is a part of my day. Yeah. They don't want to break away from it. But man, is it fake? And here's what I got to say, because we're going to go into this next story. And it's going to be really bad. So I hope you're all ready for this next story, because we're going to talk about something that the media has been heavily criticized for there is the media that people talk about like with air quotes and

then there's actual news outlets local news tends to do a pretty okay job there's a lot of there's still the same issues that affect local outlets the same as national outlets but the national outlet outlets have a tendency of being i don don't know, wings of the Democratic Party. I put it that way. You know, and the issue is right now we have liberal media. We have left wing. I don't like calling it liberal media, but that's what it's called. Right.

That's how people refer to it. And then you have conservative media. But the mainstream news and people like, you know, Brian Stelter, they never say left wing media. They always just say, like, Trump's ragging on news outlets. They're like fish not knowing they're wet almost. Yeah. But they will say right wing commentators, right wing personalities. They'll lump all of the worst people in the world together under the banner of right wing.

If you go to the anti defamation leagues like Terror Tracker, they're like anyone anti government is right wing. That's amazing. It's like we talk about Antifa is anti governmentment but there's no anti-government left-wing category there was one one instance where they claimed that a black identity extremist who had killed people was left-wing and all of a sudden i'm like well hold on a minute isn't racial supremacy like right wing but because of the race you make it left or right. That's weird. So, so what ends up happening is this is how the media functions.

Yeah. What? So listen, we're going to get, we're going to get, this is going to be, it's going to be brutal, man. I appreciate you. Appreciate you guys. We're going to talk about a really, really messed up story and we're going to talk about what the media, what the media is doing.

So I'm giving you guys fair warning. Your blood will boil from this one. Check it out. It's from The Blaze. And I've got an update on this. Neighbor reportedly rushes five-year-old boy playing outside, puts a gun to his head, and executes him from The Blaze. This story has been making the rounds among many, many people. And I just say many people

because i see a lot of people talking about it and i don't see large mainstream news outlets yeah they didn't talk about it they didn't talk about a story like this i saw this and i had people asking me if i would cover it and you know will i bring it up and i gotta be honest my my thought process initially was like this is insane however my point of initially was like, this is insane. However, my point of view was like, I don't think I can just highlight this one particular story because people think the media is ignoring it and they should be covering it. And I also kind of thought like, well, I mean, you know, will they cover it? I mean, are people jumping the gun? You know, let's see if this becomes a story. And sure enough, it didn't.

And now it's at the point where we have the body camera footage from George Floyd, totally ignored, totally ignored. And I'm, and I'm, and I'm like, wait, wait, hold on, hold on a minute. How many stories like this do we have? So, you know, with, with, with all due respect and, you know, maybe I could have done a better job. Maybe I could have brought the story sooner. You have the story of a five-year-old boy

who was playing outside and a dude ran up because of some beef, executed a little kid. And this doesn't make... It's not just about this story. There's a bunch of stories like this. Do you remember when in New York,

there were people running up to Orthodox and Hasidic Jews and just beating them. Yep. And just where was it? Why does it fall on conservatives to support the Jewish community when they were being attacked in New York City? Yeah, I don't know. National media.

Look, I think it's obvious. The narrative they're pushing, writing Black Lives Matter in the streets without approval. It's intended to help the Democratic Party. Yeah. I mean, it's Bill de Blasio. It is literally Democrats painting these messages. Yeah. And then it... Without permission.

Right. Yeah. And taxpayer money. The moment someone challenges it, what do we get? Shut it down. Well, not Bill de Blasio. He was like, no. He said Black Lives Matter transcends politics.

Oh, does it? So what? So does Blue Lives Matter? Yeah. I thought, I thought everybody liked cops. How does Blue, how does Blue Lives Matter not transcend politics? Police exist literally everywhere. Yeah.

No, it's apparently a political statement to say you support police now, but not Black Lives Matter. I want to read you the story. I want to make sure you all understand. This is from The Blaze. They say a five-year-old boy is dead after a man in Wilson, North Carolina, reportedly ran up to the child while he was playing in a neighborhood street and fatally shot the child in the head. According to a report from WRAL-TV, the shooting took place on Sunday. Cannon Hinnant was playing outside his father's house on the dusky summer evening when their neighbor, 25-year-old Darius N. Sessoms, charged Cannon, produced a handgun, and shot him in the

head. The child's 7-year-old and 8-year-old siblings witnessed the murder. First responders came to the scene and transported the little boy to Wilson Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead. Doris LeBron, a neighbor, said she witnessed Sessoms running up to Cannon, putting the gun to his head and firing the weapon before fleeing the scene into his own home. She couldn't believe her eyes. Quote, my first reaction was he's playing with the kids, she recalled. For a second, I thought that couldn't happen. People don't run across the street and kill kids. LeBron said the situation became all too real when she saw the child's father react to the horrific scene. Authorities took Sessoms into custody on Monday night

and charged him with first degree murder. He's being held in the Wilson County Jail without bond. Authorities have not yet determined a motive in the shooting, but insisted that the killing wasn't random, as Sessoms was reportedly friendly with cannon's father a gofundme page was set up to benefit the family uh has raised at least five thousand five hundred and seventy seven dollars at the time of this reporting i want to stop there too i see antifa far leftist rioters they go around and they smash windows they attack people

and they raise 80 grand 30 grand 40 grand. The media doesn't cover these stories. This is not the only story. These stories happen all the time. And I think I've been desensitized to them, especially growing up in Chicago. I wonder why it is that this isn't national news. This doesn't make sense to me. Because this, you want to talk about not a political issue? This is not a political issue.

It is. It shouldn't be. It shouldn't be. It shouldn't be. It's murder. And it shouldn't be political in any way at all. And I think that they're choosing to make it political by refusing to cover it. It bothers me a lot. So we have an update from the blaze.

Hashtag say his name trends after mainstream media silence on the atrocious killing of four uh of five-year-old canon hinnant why is there a media blackout on the execution killing of a five-year-old boy who was innocently riding his bicycle i don't i don't agree with the term blackout you know i think blackout implies they're all intentionally saying don't run the story yeah i think it's fair if you want to, if you believe that, like if in your opinion, you're like, I don't trust the media. And I think they're gonna do that. You know, I personally wouldn't say blackout.

I would say they don't care about you. They don't care about this kid. They don't care about these stories. And I think that's worse. That is way worse. I think it's way worse. I think it's one thing to imply that the media is actively seeing this and going, oh, no, we better not let anyone know that implies they know it's bad and they and they that they

actually understand the ramifications of a murder like this and they're worried about what people will think no i think they ignore it they ignore it you really think they ignore it or you think they don't even care that's what i mean i think they see it and they go like i think they go huh because they don't even see like what i'm trying to say is a regular person sees stories like this and they share it they're like what is this why does something like this happen and why are there other stories like this there's videos of people being beaten in the street and the media won't talk about it it's not because i think there's a blackout that would imply they understand understand that people are shocked by this.

It's that they don't want to. They don't care. It just it just doesn't faze them at all. They're indifferent. I was always told growing up the opposite of love is not hate. It's indifference. I think it's right. And that's what this is.

Complete and total indifference to the fact that we've had murders going up in this country. Violent crime. indifference to the fact that we've had murders going up in this country violent violent crime and we're witnessing in various cities the district attorneys are straight up saying we will not prosecute yeah portland yeah yeah chicago so i i maybe this is just because i took the moral foundations test and i'm really really high in caring i think really high i'm really i'm really i'm good that's gonna be clipped out of context i'm really high in caring and it baffles me that you could just discard this and just decide not to cover it like what what could possess you that's that's kind of ghoulish to be able to say i don't think this is important i don't think this matters so for those that aren't familiar there is uh it's jonathan height is yeah Yeah, yeah. He did the moral foundations test.

And it's a really, really fascinating assessment. It finds that basically conservatives have a balance of all, there's six moral foundations. I think so, yeah. Yeah. You want to pull it up? Yeah, go ahead. So conservatives, you can pat yourselves on the back whether this matters for you or not. Liberals, I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing, but it's interesting.

There are six moral foundations. Do you have them? Yeah. Hold on. Let me grab it. It's like care. Oh, you've got it. Yeah.

There you go. Okay. Do they actually list the foundations on here? No. I think you have to actually take the test. No. I don't think you have to do the whole thing. Ah, that's boo.

I don't like that. Here. Do you want to just spam it? Yeah. Let's see. Just make it crazy. And then we'll show you this to explain what's going on. Oh, I can just go through all the way in the middle we'll be super moderate we'll be super centrist here

all right we're going to give it a totally fake answer and see what it comes up with everything might be even i don't know the moral foundations are like care fairness loyalty authority purity purity to me so here we actually have here we hear Here are the six. Care, fairness, purity, loyalty, authority, and liberty. And you can see here, so Lydia just spammed moderate the whole way across. Look how moderate we are. Yeah, but it's conservative. It says your strongest moral foundation is loyalty. Interesting.

Your morality is closest to that of a conservative. Conservatives tend to have a balance of all of the moral foundations. That's really interesting. It's very interesting and and what's what's what's really fascinating to me about it is it's conservative like in general this is not a new thing for conservatives right but liberals tend to have care and fairness really high and you can look at the blue here care is at like 78 fairness is at like you like, you know, 79. And then loyalty, authority, purity, and liberty are lower.

And purity is like the lowest next to libertarian. And conservatives in red are balanced across the board. Interestingly, and I find this hilarious, libertarians are low

on everything except liberty. That kind of makes sense to me. They're like, I don't care what you do or who you do it to. Leave me alone. Yeah, exactly.

But this is what's fascinating. Authority is important to recognize, but not to just blindly follow we understand why why authority is important to make sure a system can function and people can survive right purity is relatively important as well and it has to do with avoiding disease and things like this yeah like having borders and boundaries right liberals or i should say left liberal whatever you want to call it have like none they don't think that's important none they do have more they do have a decent amount of liberty that's interesting too but lower than conservatives liberals obviously believe less in liberty than conservatives less less in authority less in loyalty more care and more fairness yeah Yeah. I challenge this. I don't believe it. Really? I don't believe that care really is.

I think fairness, but I don't think they care. Really? Yeah, because when I talk to my, like when I try having a conversation with, maybe it's whatever default liberal is. When I have conversations with them and I say something like, do you ever actually ask a conservative how they feel of course they don't so do you think it's just like an in-group thing like where they really really want to protect their group yes yeah that's why it's very tribal

that's why maybe fairness isn't true either i don't think fairness is fair either i gotta be completely honest because because you can take a look at this. When you have Antifa, Black Lives Matter rioters, smashing and destroying small businesses, causing suffering among those who are the most vulnerable among us, immigrant families, where are those who have care and fairness coming out and saying this was wrong? You might be right. Yeah, I don't know what it is these people are. Maybe you'd find that the Antifa people, they score low in everything but authority. Because I'm curious about this, right?

Yeah. They give you a graph of left, liberal, conservative, and libertarian. What about authoritarian? Yeah, what about like far, far, far left? Yeah. Yeah, I know. But not just far left, but authoritarian in general. That's true. That's not really a...

Would they have low liberty and really high authority? Yeah, and probably really high purity. So anyway, the reason we got into this in the context of Ken and Hinnant is specifically about they don't care. Right. And I'm like, how can they claim to be liberal if they literally don't care about these things? Yeah.

Certainly the story should make the average person cry. Yeah. Like, I mean, this was like getting punched in these things. Yeah. Certainly the story should make the average person cry. Yeah. Like, I mean, this was like getting punched in the chest. Seriously. But, you know, I've seen so many stories like this. And I mean, even when I saw the George Floyd videos, like I was moved. I'm like, man, even when you watch the body camera footage and you realize, look, he was resisting.

So for those that aren't familiar, they published the body camera footage. Now we know he kicked his way out of the SUV. He was saying he was resisting and he was saying, hold me on the ground, hold me on the ground several times. I'm still upset when I see that video of him saying I can't breathe, mama and stuff like that. It pains me, man. I'm absolutely opposed to the death penalty, recognizing there's no absolutes, right? I understand there are certain circumstances that even I have no control over. Conflict exists, murderers exist.

And sometimes I think in the confines of the state, if you've subdued someone and they're unable to actually hurt anybody anymore, that's when I'm like, I don't think it's right to kill. But I understand if I saw this dude walk up to that kid and pull out a gun, that guy would probably die. Yep. If I had the means, you know what I mean?

I think most people would agree. It doesn't matter who the person is. You watch them walk up to a kid and draw a gun. If you had the power, if you would snap your fingers and they would die an agonizing death and it would prevent that death, you would do it in defense of others. Yeah, absolutely. And it's unfortunate, but this kid didn't deserve what he got. No, man.

This family, the siblings, this poor kid, man. Right in front of his siblings, too. And the George Floyd thing is awful. It's sad. That's traumatizing. And I wish that had never happened. But at the same time, George Floyd got a heck of a lot more of a chance at life than this little five-year-old kid. And I wish that he were getting as much attention and as much of a memory, like a memorial, as George Floyd did. Check out these tweets.

Jason Howard says, Not even a mention? It's crazy. I mean, if CNN ran one article where they're like, hey, this thing happened and that was it and there was no big like, you know, Brian Seltzer didn't come on the air and talk about it, I'd be like, they did the story. You know what I mean? They talk about it.

Whether or not people in politics care is entirely up to them. It's crazy to me. I think, you know, I was reading this Medium post from a woman named Carrie Smith about how she's a liberal and she's going to vote for Trump. And it's because the left isn't liberal anymore. It's because they're lying. She wrote about how in the 2016 cycle, she was watching videos of Trump supporters being beaten and it made her cry.

Yeah, dude. But she still believed it was like Trump was awful and all these things were really bad and these supporters were really bad. And it wasn't until she actually talked to people that she learned these are regular people thinking, feeling human beings. You know what I mean? But even she had empathy when she saw these videos of Trump supporters being attacked. Yeah, absolutely. What are these people on Twitter that are just pure wads of hate? It's like all the hate. It's like it reminds me of you ever see Ghostbusters 2 no i'm sorry

okay so in ghostbusters 2 there's pink slime and when they're negative it bubbles and expands and it's like you know it's feeding off negative energy okay that's what twitter is it's like um what was the name of the bad guy from ghostbusters 2 i can't remember his name uh shoot i don't know let me see you didn't see it no it was a it was a guy in the painting you know whatever but uh if if man if if if they remade ghostbusters 2 storyline today with twitter it's just it's putrid yeah and i don't even want to know what people are saying about this kid so we got a tweet here from uh kyle cashew he says yesterday a five-year-old was riding his bike playing outside with uh outside his house with his two sisters his neighbor with already multiple felony charges walked up to him and shot him dead at point blank five years old jfc where the h is the media coverage say his name cassandra fairbank says

just so everyone understands a lone woman calling the police on a stranger threatening her dog in a park is considered national news the murder of ken and hennant is not it's got a point she dabbed yeah she does a huge point how many stupid karen videos do they prop up our news media does not serve us this reminds me of in sweden there was a story that i uh when i was when i i went to sweden several years ago you you you got yeah i think most i think most people know but for those that aren't familiar i went to sw several years ago. You got to the no-go zone. I think most people know, but for those that aren't familiar, I went to Sweden because Donald Trump said, you know, look what happened over, you know, last night in Sweden. He was referring to a Fox News story. Everyone took him literally because the left likes pretending they, you know, they pull

him out of context. Right. So I decided, you know, with a friend of mine, Emily, we were going to go and cover and do like a vlog series in Sweden to see what's really going on. We called it last night in Sweden. It was funny. We thought it was like, we thought it was like a funny take on going because I really thought for the most part that Sweden was okay. Right. And it kind of was. It's got its problems. Right. There's a story there about someone who committed a crime who was Somali. And the media blurred his face and hands and then changed the color of the pixels

to make it look like he was white. I remember that. Yep. And I think there's a racial component to why they don't do certain stories. This is the problem with a hysterical media. Telling a story about a guy murdering a kid does not make you racist.

It is not racist to highlight the fact that a grown man executed a little boy. I don't care what their races were. I care that it happened. When Tamir Rice, you know the story of Tamir Rice, was playing with his toy pistol in a park and the cops ran up and shot him, I was extremely angry about this. Cops, you know, that's why I think there's room for reform and figuring out how to make you know things better dude i think this is why racism is never gonna die they're not gonna let it it earns way too much money it is way too lucrative it's way too profitable it gets all those clicks dude and this is why they don't want the war in the middle east to die exactly for much the same reasons it's like it's like controlled chaos let it happen

you know but i really don't think it's a grand conspiracy or anything like that i think you know what we see in places like sweden and now what we see with stories like this it is oh man i'm gonna read this i'm i'm look yeah what what i what i wanted to end with is there are there are social functions that tell you you are not allowed to say certain things because it's too close to the line no matter what. And I've been explaining this on, you know, a couple times, particularly how it pertains to COVID. If we're not allowed to show you a doctor talking about COVID because he's got good

news and we get banned for it, then the only thing you will ever see is everything's getting worse. Yep. COVID is getting worse is everything's getting worse. Yep. COVID is getting worse. Everybody's getting sick. And then people will just continually believe everything's worse than it is. And then because of that, the actions taken by government and by doctors will always be towards the most extreme and negative interpretation.

That's interesting. There's no. Yeah. So you need you need arguments. So if the news comes out and says this is the end of the world it's apocalypse you need another side to come out and say well hold on there's some good news here and then people can weigh their the views and say okay i think the truth is closer to the middle right now anybody who says anything like like this this is the reason why only conservative outlets for the most part actually talk about what happened to this kid. And I think there's a racial component to it.

I think you're right. Well, I think this really boggles my mind. And I think that the fact that the media has no accounting force, I think what you said about them pushing everything toward the extreme by only giving bad news. I think that's pivotal. Like, that's an important point. And I'm not sure anyone really considers that. And I know that you can read the news all day, kind of like we do, and just come away thinking, you know, everything's normal. Because everything's bad, you're normal.

Your new normal becomes everything is always bad. And you never stop to think about how policies are being pushed one way or the other. Yep. is bad and you never stop to think about how policies are being pushed one way or the other yep yeah so i mean look i've had deep conversations with other big podcasters and political personalities and i'm not i you know like people have commented on how i said in the past if youtube came and banned me outright and just got rid of everything i'm like i'm gonna i'm gonna hop in the van i'm gonna buy the river and go fishing and just relax. And I don't care if I have to, you know, if the rest of my life was backbreaking labor working on a farm to grow my own food and live a humble life. But it's more about it's really hard to do right when it comes to information. How many stories are we not talking

about right now? How many other people have been murdered across this country all day, every day? We don't talk about them. And so to be honest, when I saw this first story, I'm like, man, I'm from Chicago. You know, you show me a story like this and I roll my eyes and I say, welcome to welcome, you know, some of the worst parts of this country. These things happen. And I think for this story, people took it very seriously and i thought it i would i was perhaps too jaded and i should highlight this and i should talk about

how the media does it hasn't a poor job fully recognizing that i think even coming to the point where i felt like i should have talked about it in the first place i feel like i'm just playing into the same media machine oh Oh, everybody starts talking about it. So then I jump on the train and I'm like, oh, you know, look, now I'm concerned too. And it's like, I'm concerned about all of this all the time. But, you know, if you only hear from me, if you only watch my channels, then you're going to get basically what I see. And you don't see literally everything I see. So people might have their perspective skewed by only watching my content. One of the reasons I think YouTube is substantially better than basically any other news outlet

is because I hear from a lot of people, they don't just watch me. They watch also Jimmy Dore. Right. Or Crowder, Kyle Kalinske, Stix Hexenhammer, other great creators, commentators. And that's like the YouTube platform has created an area where you have different opinions, sometimes arguing with each other and debates. So you're not getting pigeonholed

by one media company that won't tell you everything and only wants it to be always negative and everything like that. But I do think it's fair to point out, same goes for me and literally anybody else. Man, really, we only ever talk about bad things. Well, and to be fair,

there's only so many hours in the day. There's only so many stories you can cover. Like, you cover a lot of stories. You cover, what, six different stories a day? Like, often combining things together. And you can't cover everything. We have, like, millions and millions of people in the country and a 24-hour news cycle. There's just not a way to cover everything for everyone. But yeah, I mean, the whole idea

that it's constantly bad is kind of discouraging. So I don't know how to fix that. The media, I think, I think it's, look, I can be self-critical. I think it's important to do so. And I think, you know, people can criticize me, but I think i still try to do a good job i still think i do a good job i think we do a good job and i want to show you this image right here and i want to show you what a bad job is this is covington catholic four million four hundred fifty thousand results in a half second canon hittent 187 000 results in a you know 0.3 of a second there really is no coverage of this that like think about what covington catholic is covington catholic was literally a kid standing smirking and and that was i everyone and their grandmother came out and they were like can you

believe this what makes viral outrage you know what i mean like why when i got sent that video of covington people were like dude did you see this and i was like what is it and they were like it's this kid and he like got in front of a guy's face and i was like it's just a video of a kid watching a guy drum he's just standing there i don't know what you care what is this and i ignored it and then when i saw everyone talking about it i actually started questioning it i found a video that showed the native american walk up to the kid and i was confused i was like what do you mean like the the the native american dude walked up to the kid why

is everybody angry about this right that was national news nobody wants it you know you know what it was a negative racial component you're right that's consistent it was i don't like that i know and i think this gets back to my point about racism i think this is why racism will never die because it just drives the media and it drives the clicks and it drives the rage that people already kind of have and think they know it's part of history and it's creating a psychotic worldview let me Let me show you this paragraph real quick. They say, at the time of publication, a search of Ken and Hinton produced no results on the websites of ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, NPR, New York Times, The Washington Post, Time,

or Newsweek. It appears that Fox News was the only mainstream media to cover the horrible death of the five-year-old boy. International news outlets such as The Sun, Daily Mail, and the independent have reported on the boy's murder we are being poorly served in this country well let's go to the international places they're covering it yeah i i don't i don't get it man i mean i do obviously but what i mean is like i understand why they do it right why they why they push the stories they push they it's it's safe it's safe it's born out of i think a somewhat fair you like comedic space where early on you had comics who had no problem ragging on white people because it's like listen man there's an argument about punching down

punching up, and there were comics who didn't care. They'd punch any which direction they wanted to. Right. But there was some, you know, some things were considered, you know, too much. Like I said, if you only are ever allowed to hear one side of an argument, then that's the direction you're going. Yep. And so we've come to a point now where the news sees this,

and I don't think it's necessarily a racist thing. I think it's more of a, this story lines up with other stories that get traffic. Right. Maybe they don't even consider that there's a racial component here. They're just like, oh, this, this has all the makings. I'm not really going to put my finger on it because I don't care to think about it too much, but I'm just going to go with it because I know this is kind of in line with other stuff we've done that's really, really been big. Yeah. It's the incentive machine where like Facebook gives you, you get the numbers. Like Twitter and Facebook, you can see those live metrics of your story doing well. And this results in a negative feedback loop.

So these media companies are like, so actually it's a really good example of mike.com. I'm going to say my understanding and based on what I've read, because I could be wrong about this. I'm saying that for legal reasons. But initially, they were very, like, libertarian. And it's really interesting to look at some conservative commentators and go back in their history on YouTube and see how anti-cop they were. Yeah.

Very critical of police and police brutality because the libertarians don't like the state beating people and having that authority too now they're very pro-cop and i do think it's it's not it's not it's not you know fair to say it's simply they flip-flopped it's that there's a difference between saying like please police stop the violent riots and supporting you know police brutality or something yeah because i don't think anybody supports that but what ends up happening is you get sites like mike that would put up a video of police brutality and they would get you know they would see the live numbers and be like whoa they'd put up a video of you know ron paul giving a speech and it'd be like yeah so they said we know what

butter's our bread pump out that anti-police you know videos so do you think it's safe to say that watching what the media does with their metrics is kind of like a glorified version of what happens to people when they're watching their own metrics? It's like, yeah, so you know how you can feel crappy or really great depending on how people are responding to stuff that you tweet or talk about on Facebook. You can't have that happen, man. You really can't. Like, how do you get away from that? Strong mental fortitude. Do you think we should reform 230 as far as the news stories go?

Yeah, but I don't think that's going to change how YouTube creates these feedback loops. Yeah, that's true. It's a little bit different. It's so annoying when I hear people saying simultaneously Tim is the slowest red pill ever. And the left saying Tim flipped as soon as he saw a right-wing audience. I'm like, this is just so stupid. Schrodinger's red pill. It's just not – well, I think if you're on the left, I look like I'm on the right,

and if you're on the right, I look like I'm on the left. Yeah, so it really is like a – Being a centrist. It's an optical illusion. Yeah, it's crazy when I talk to my friends and they're like, we're all in for Biden, and I'm like, but he's the establishment politician who supported war. What are you talking about? And he gropes people and he smells girls.

It's weird. Too many weird factors going on there. You know, I see that there's these viral Facebook posts. One of them going around right now is about Confederate statues. And it's a bunch of facts about the Confederacy. And it frames the argument as though trump likes the confederacy right you're giving me you're giving me yeah so i'm giving him this look because i know and i think you guys probably also know that the confederacy was not part of the

republican party this was never a democrat line these were democrats so the the idea being pushed by our new historians we have new history now because they're just kind of rewriting it as they go along is that um trump wants to what do this in gettysburg because he wanted to go to where the oh man it's lost i saw i saw a progressive journalist tweet out why are you so trump said he wants to he wants to be accepted in speech for the rnc at maybe gettysburg or the White House. And then this progressive journalist quote tweeted it and and said, why would you want to hold the speech where your side lost? And I'm like, I read that. I was like, huh?

And so I responded. The Republicans won the Civil War. What are you talking about? Democrats who lost the Democrats were the were the were the Confederacy. But this viral Facebook post is like, why are so many people now defending the confederacy and why is donald trump talking about their statues and i'm yeah and i'm like donald trump specifically referenced jeff jefferson and grant and hans christian haig and and other heroes of the civil war that were republicans i mean jefferson and and and you know washington weren't

because they didn't exist. Significant figures. Right. Yeah. And it was funny. Somebody said, I saw one of the stupidest tweets, man. What did they say? Four score and seven years ago was 1933, which was the day of like, you know, Hitler's ascension or some other ridiculous. I know. And I'm like, four score and seven years ago.

Is that is that what they're trying to allude to that? He's actually going to Gettysburg? The place where the union won and crushed the... That is some next level conspiracy theorizing. I have to say that's really impressive. You see what Jamie Lee Curtis posted? Oh my gosh, yeah. A mail truck on a flatbed trailer.

What? And she said the driver had a red hat with white letters. Oh, you mean like towing companies used to put their, yeah. Are Trump supporters stealing mail trucks to win the election? Yeah. Probably. That is the simplest explanation, Tim. It's, sometimes I feel like I'm trying to knock down a skyscraper with a little ball

peen hammer. Like, how do you compete with the fake news machine when people are spreading memes like crazy? They're just based off of fake news. Trump is not coming out and saying he's defending the Confederacy. He's coming out and saying, I was like, listen, the argument isn't about, for the most, for most people, Confederate statues right it's about having a discussion having a democratic process to determine do we take it down replace it do we leave it up how do we take it down instead violent mobs are showing up with rope from other communities and ripping them from their from their bases and it's not even just about the confederates it's literally about grant

christian hagg somebody tore down frederick douglas down the elk. I don't get it. I don't understand. So there has to be a process by which we take down statues we don't agree with. And if you don't agree with the statue of an elk, I'm sorry for you. Probably should reinvestigate yourself. Seriously. What is wrong with you? That thing was like 120 years old. That made me sad. That's crazy.

Like, why? Because it was built by colonialism or whatever stupid... That's such an easy answer. Oh, it was built by colonialism or whatever stupid that's such an easy answer oh it's built by colonizers so i'm just gonna knock well i'll tell you what man if i were to tell you that these people were crazy would you believe me yes i would well ladies and gentlemen i don't know i think we have uh oh man oh should we talk about that one first oh are they are they no we got to do this man yep yep Yep. Yep. Yep. My friends. Yes.

I was having a conversation with a good friend of mine. And they I was I was mentioning this. They said, like, everybody donate to Joe Biden. And I responded with I will never vote for someone from the Obama administration. Fool me once, you know, fool me twice. Yada, yada, yada. But pro war. So no dice.

And I ultimately, you know, there was some conversation about will they swap out joe biden with somebody else at this point i don't think so i think it's it's biden harris we're in for the long haul come on kamala harris is clearly the the front runner the tickets inverted it's a silly game they're playing yeah but you know maybe like before this happened it was like maybe cuomo and i ultimately at this point, I'm likely going to be voting for Trump. And my friend was like, not happy with it. Like, I trust you. I've known you. And I assume you've researched this.

And I said, listen, man, in California, they voted to repeal civil rights law. Like, I understand if you're a white liberal who grew up in a wealthy suburb or middle class suburb, you don't have those stories in your life from your family about what it means to have accomplished civil rights. I remember that photo of, you've seen the photo of Bernie Sanders being arrested

during the civil rights movement. It's a famous photo and everyone cheers for Bernie for that. The only problem is these people are trying to turn the clock back. They don't support Bernie's ideas from when he Bernie for that. The only problem is these people are trying to walk the clock, turn the clock back. They don't support Bernie's ideas from when he when he fought for this. Yep. That meant a lot to me when I saw that photo of Bernie. I'm like, man, here's a guy who actually fought for civil rights.

But OK, so this kind of kind of gets me, too, because if you care about your friend and you know that your friend is, for example, mixed race and has a history of growing up in a mixed race household, wouldn't you be like, you know what? I'm going to put myself in your shoes and try to understand where you're coming from and be like maybe you're right well my friend into this is crazy good that's great yeah so that's what i'm saying you know like these are people i've known my whole life and and they literally said i trust that you've done your research and you know what you're talking about but you know wow and then we had some you know

minor private conversation and complete disagreement but i just said you know do you know what it's like when you have a democratic base in this country that has adopted a cult like ideology based on literal racism what it means to my family and like what we see when they when they literally voted to do this in california i'm like all of a sudden i'm i'm like there are people i've known who you know i want to be vague enough about it but people in my extended family who were immediately just like they immediately saw that and they went it's trump it is like we've lived through this yeah we've lived through it nope sorry and i think when you when it's really easy it's really easy for these leftists to say things like we're going to do affirmative action and and it's going to be good for everybody yes there are some races that are probably going

it's good for me you know if you're if you're black in this country they're telling you they'll benefit you they'll give you more access if you're Latino. If you're white or Asian, however, you know, they're saying the opposite. But more importantly, what if you're a mix? Yeah. The smallest minority, for example. And all of a sudden now everything they're proposing is like you go to the gutter. Right. No matter what. Because especially if you come from a family like mine, which brings me to actual good news. Yeah. Good news, everybody. Yes. Yale illegally discriminates against white and Asian students. Justice Department says, boom, Yale University's undergraduate admission process illegally discriminates against white and Asian students. year investigation into the ivy league school found that race is the determinant determinative factor in hundreds of admissions uh each year in violation of title six of the civil rights act of

1964 the doj said i'm clapping a yale spokeswoman responded we are proud of yale's admission practices and we will not change them on the basis of such a meritless hasty accusation she's proud of being racist two-year investigation is not a hasty accusation. When did Bill Barr come into play? Oh, a year and a half ago. Was this a couple years ago? I don't care. I don't care.

It's this is the DOJ and he's running the DOJ, right? Correct. Yeah, I like Bill Barr. Yep. Look, man, I think affirmative action is it's it's it's it's like a candy. It's a it's bait. We're going to we're going to do these things for you. I'll tell you what unit I see from several polls over the past year.

Trump really is doing well among African-Americans. Yeah, that's been consistent. Yeah, it has been. And there's polls from like Emerson, which found 30 or so percent shocking numbers. I think like Rasmussen has found shocking numbers consistently. And Rasmussen was Rasmussen nailed it for the popular vote in 2016. They could be wrong, maybe. But it's a big difference between polling non-college educated white people, which they can't do, and polling, you know, African-Americans in this country. Right. I feel like this is probably real. I mean, I'm seeing these viral tweets where they're like, Trump is going to get an an

historic. An historic. An historic. They're just assuming he'll drop the h a little bit i don't know yeah and historic percentage of the black community to vote for him yeah i don't know but i've seen i've seen posts everybody wants to tell you that it's true or it's not true i don't know what i will tell you is it certainly seems like the democrats are operating as though it's true yep the panic the the the um every big

brand endorsing black lives matter and pushing these things all the racial components i think i seriously think that the focus on race right now is because of the fact that trump's doing well with them and i'm just reminded of the super like i forget what percent it was do you remember what the black unemployment was that before coronavirus no but it was like historically low incredibly low it was the historically low. Incredibly low. It was the lowest it had been in, I think, 50 years. And I remember being like, how is the left going to respond to this? And apparently it's by pulling out all the stops and going.

Burning down cities. Burning everything down and just destroying the economy. I don't. We've seen the polls from Gallup and it's like they're they're they're behind every step of the way. But I wonder if the whole intersectionality bit that they're embracing is because they think it will be popular among minority groups to act like. Right. I mean, especially if you're Asian. Surprisingly, I've seen polls showing that while Donald Trump is doing tremendously well among the black community and Latino community, not like he's not beating the Democrats. Right. Still, the majority is not beating the Democrats. Right. Still, the majority is way better than Republicans. Right.

So historically have done. Yes. Right. But Asians still like Democrats. Yeah. Interestingly. And I found that interesting. There's a couple other things like maybe it's because they're lumping Asians with every

other race on these polls when they put other. Yeah. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks, guys. Jeez. That you can't get an accurate portrayal of it. But it seems like, you know, their play isn't going to work.

I think I tell you what, man. You've got, I think people, I think on average, people want to know the path of success. And if you give someone a safe, clear and path of success, they take it. Right. And when you back them into a corner, give them no options, they do what they have to do to survive. And I think these Democrat run cities are collapsing. They become chaotic. And it is it is it is hurting marginalized groups more than ever. And a percent. Yeah. Let me tell you, I told you my story about the T-shirts when I was younger. I think I may have mentioned on mentioned it on the show before. No, this doesn't sound familiar.

Okay. Yeah, tell me. I'm going to tell you a story. And then I want to show you some racism from the mainstream media. But I grew up on the south side of Chicago. Yeah. Very, very mixed. There was this black dude who was mocking the gangbangers and other people, like I knew,

who were selling drugs. And he basically said, you can sell t-shirts, man, and make more more money and you don't go to jail so why would you sling dope that's the stupidest thing ever and like we were hanging out at a park and people asked him like what do you how you sell t-shirts like you mean like on the highway he's like listen listen listen go find a venue right you got these you got these cafes you got these venues they have these bands these bands will play and they got no merch so you you look at who's about to play you call them up and say here's what i'm gonna do i'm gonna make t-shirts and i'm gonna bring them and i'm gonna give you 20 of everything i sell and the band say okay and

he's like i tell you what i do he's like i put in a couple hundred bucks i get a bunch of like low like not even the best shirts you know screen printed i bring them to the venue i work one day a week i make like one day a week. I make like two grand a week. What? And everybody was like, whoa, these people on the South Side were told like, you got to join a gang. You got to sell drugs.

This is how you make money. Nobody wants to work at McDonald's. And this guy was like, t-shirts, bro. That is fantastic. They just needed someone to tell them how to do it. Trump is doing that. Yeah, man. Trump is saying, here's a job.

Here's a factory. This is for you. This is for your community. It's going to help you succeed. And people are saying, thank you. Yeah, man. Trump is saying, here's a job. Here's a factory. This is for you. This is for your community. It's going to help you succeed. And people are saying, thank you. I wanted this. OK, so that must be why his approval rating is so high, because people want to feel like talking about the news being so bad all the time.

And before someone clips it, I mean, literally all races, they're like there are more poor white people in this country and they're being given a chance and an opportunity the same. Right. It is the opioid crisis is predominantly affecting, think white people white people and so so i think why we're seeing such support from latinos and from this is this is interesting trump's losing support among white people and it's probably because they're far left intersectionalists yeah and then meanwhile minorities are like i like being you know like i'm like they're regular like this country you'll find is why i can't stand racism regular people we all tend to want the same things yeah we we want to we want

to uh you know work a good day's work earn our keep feed your kids feed your kids that's it that's what you want feel accomplished exactly i did this i'm doing the right thing yeah and i think i think trump helped create that covid is destroying that i think people of every race across the spectrum they want to feel a sense of hope and i think i really think that that is something that donald trump has done really well with for all his other shortcomings i have some issues with him like i said i don't really like losing him with the deficit but again i think that that is just stamp collecting. Like Tim says, if you can give people that sense that there is something to be hopeful about, that's amazing.

Like that is actually caring about what American people want. That's significant. I think about surviving versus succeeding. Yeah. And I think people don't want to just survive. They want to succeed. In order to succeed, you have to be shown a path a light at the end of the tunnel when people lose hope then they're just surviving and survival can be dangerous it can be

crime and poverty breeds crime yeah absolutely it's it's not always that these criminals are just evil who want to steal things i know aoc got dragged a lot for for her ignorantly suggesting that murder was overbred it wasn't but but to be to be fair if if I try to actually fix her statement petty crime is actually way down so she was wrong murder is way up she was wrong but there is a lot of crime based on survival yeah but if you can give someone a job at a, say meat processing plant, when, when,

when, when Trump had federal law enforcement arrest, non-citizen workers, I'm being diplomatic. I understand. I know. And these people got deported. We saw a bunch of,

a bunch of people, town people. Yeah. Locals immediately took the job. And it was people of all races. And they were asked about it. And they said, this pays better than McDonald's. Yeah.

So why were they bringing in non-citizen labor to do the job? It makes you wonder. Well, Trump, it was part of what he was doing that opened up these jobs to people who really just wanted an honest, good day's work. And they struggled to find it. So Trump lowers unemployment. They, they, this makes it, you know what, you know, what's crazy is there's a lot of, there's a lot of things about Trump and it's his character that really sets him back.

There were things he did early on that he didn't know what he was doing. I think, you know, John Bolton is an easy, easy, easy example. He's improved greatly. He's calmed a lot. He's calmed down a bit and he still has he's still a man of bad moral character and i know some people are going to be like what is that supposed to mean to him come on like what did he like cheated on his wife yeah so he cheated on his wife and i i don't know people talk about how he's not like the type of person that you'd have

over for dinner but you could vote for him and i'm fine, I don't need you to be my best friend. I need you to follow through on some of this stuff. And in fact, I think that the concept of giving the American people hope is a mark of character. To me, that marks out a lot of his other shortcomings. That's huge. That's a really big deal. He loses women because of it because of the the way he's like you know it's funny to see people laugh when he made fun of rosie o'donnell but

this is what contributes to him losing a lot of female voters i'll tell you what though trump tweeted out recently he's like the suburban housewife is going to vote for me because she wants safety he might be right i think so i think the riots were a big mistake and democrats should have should have denounced it yeah now they want to bring on kamala as though she's going to be their law and order savior and it's like no no i'm sorry if you've got riots and you respond with a despot you've created two extremes that i don't want anything to do with okay peaceful protest is fine riots are bad kamala locking up people in very crazy and cringy and scary ways. Not okay. Two things can be bad at once, apparently.

Like, you've just adopted two authoritarian standpoints on this. Great. Let me show you this tweet. It's an eye roll. Oh, boy. Oh, boy. Julia, how do you pronounce her name? Ioffe? Ioffe.

Ioffe? Ioffe, yeah. Is that really how you pronounce it? It's Italian. I'm just kind of making it up. Here's the story. Washington Post. Justice Department accuses Yale of illegal bias against white asian americans and she says bill

barr is fighting hard for white folks what but what she completely ignored it's like they don't exist and i don't understand that they don't care this is why i said i don't believe that the the liberals of this country have a high care marker in their moral foundations yeah i care about white people and asian people i care about black people and and latino people and i want everyone to have a laugh and hang out and play music together i don't get it you know what man i am i am not conservative and as much as it's crazy how the left tries to frame it, and I think it really easily comes down to like, I mean, for one, abortion issues. Like, I'm very clearly liberal on so many of these issues that have been historically aligned

with Democrats. But the left has just jumped off the cliff. And I say it enough, but it's true. And so now when I see people like, Juliet, we know you're ignoring that Asians exist. Like this was the primary target of these universities because the largest proportion of people who are going there were Asian. Yeah. And guess what? The best part is Asian doesn't just mean one race. These people are so racist. That is incredibly racist. Okay. Let's try. Let's play a game. Okay. Filipinos are Asian. Chinese people are Asian. Indians are Asian. Yeah.

Malaysians. And I mean, you can, some people would say Pacific Islander for some countries, but no, it is an eclectic, diverse region that what people don't realize when it comes to how they actually chart whether you're Asian or not, Indian immigrants are one of the highest proportions of people who get into these schools. And they assume it's all like, you know, Asian is in Chinese or something. That's what they see in their head. And you get things like Joe Biden, you know, when he said the average person can't tell the difference between, you know, someone from Korea or China or something. I can't believe,'m like are you have you ever seen these people dude yeah you're talking about to me joe biden erasing like the presence

of indian people and indonesian people and filipino people's kind of shocking because i would never do that and they call me racist all day and night but i actually care about asian people going to yale you know significant it it really annoys me to like beat the dead horse that we know the democrats have adopted racism as a strategy to try and win and i wonder if what they're thinking is racists exist in all races right that you know i mean i know this personally from visiting south korea and from having korean family they're right they're really racist yeah like they're not just racist against other other you know asian countries like they're racist against everybody it brings it unites us we're all just kind of racist it's it is changing so i visited i visited south korea and it's it's

really fascinating i've been told outright by many people who are like probably gen xer boomer that if i actually grew up there or tried to live there, I'd be treated like a second class citizen. I'm not, I understand, you know, I'm mostly white and all that stuff, but I have, you know, family history in Seoul and in some other towns. And they were like, no way. They're like ethno supremacists. It's changing with the younger generations. So I don't know. I don't want to pretend like I know everything about the country because I've only visited

it. I've only been there, I think, one time. And I didn't spend an extended amount of time there. And even, you know, my mom is born and raised in America. But I've been told this by regional experts, journalists. And when I went there, like they're like super racist. And Japan is too. I have heard that.

Yeah. Yeah. And so we end up with this story I highlighted a million times because this to me, California Proposition 16, repeal Prop 209 Affirmative Action Amendment was like, I didn't believe it. I didn't believe it. I didn't know it existed until they'd already voted on it. And then it was Tucker Carlson who brought it up. And he straight up said they voted to repeal civil rights legislation from their constitution in California. And I went, there's no way that's true. There's no joke. But I don't I don't think Tucker Carlson's a liar. He does his homework. I might disagree.

He's had some questionable moments, like when it came to pot legalization. And there was I mean, what was it? He had he had somebody on. I can't remember. There's been a few moments where I'm like, come on. But for the most part, I think he's the best guy on tv i really do yeah and and i think even if you disagree with him he's a general populist and it's crazy how i say this and all of a sudden the left screams and they take a screen grab of it and they're like tim is praising tucker carlson tucker carlson's far right blah blah blah he's not not really he's not do you see that exchange

between him and hannity when he was like companies profiting off of a pandemic it was so weird to me i was like i kind of knew that about sean hannity although i have i have independently limited my exposure to sean hannity as much as possible for obvious reasons but seeing that exchange between him and tucker was like oh my gosh because because the he's like transferring the show and Hannity goes. These are Fox News personalities. Most of you probably know that. Hannity is like, if a business wants to provide a service and they make money off it, then

so be it. And then Tucker did the brow thing. Yeah. Where he's like, looks at the camera. The Labrador thing. The Labrador thing. Yeah. Yeah.

This is what you can show your friends. California Prop 16. Repeal Proposition 209 Affirmative Action Amendment 2020. They say, a yes vote supports the constitutional amendment to repeal Proposition 209, which says the state cannot discriminate against

or grant preferential treatment to persons on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin in public employment, public education, and public contracting. To be very, very clear, it's specifically about state level, okay, public employment,

education, and contracting. They call it the Affirmative Action Amendment. I believe that is unfair because all it does is strike this language that stops the state from discriminating. However, repealing it would allow them to do affirmative action. Me, I don't care. I don't care what you call it. I don't care what you think it allow them to do affirmative action. Me, I don't care. I don't care what you call it. I don't care what you think it's going to do for you.

Like this right here should be more than enough for anybody to be like, how is this literally a thing? Yeah, do they? Listen, we recently had a Supreme Court ruling saying that sex meant gender identity and orientation. Will that impact what this legislation means now? Better believe it. So does that mean that in California, if they repeal this, there can be a public job announcement

saying, you know, straight white men only? Of course. And it would be legal? Yeah. Yeah. I can't. I show this to my friends. They don't know it exists.

And what's going to happen is come November, it's going to be on the referendum. It's going to be on the, there's gonna be a referendum for it. And then people are going to be like, oh, affirmative action. You know, they're going to boop. Yep. And there it is. They say California is a few, few years away from. There are a few years ahead of the rest of the country.

A few years ahead of us. Yeah. Right. And I found this to be true. I mean. Almost all the time, unfortunately. They banned Uber. Yeah, dude.

So Uber, for those who don't know i think uber is done in california yeah because of the the gig workers they're trying to like trying to make equal rights for gig workers and and canceling people's jobs and livelihoods like first it was the the journalists right the freelance writers and now it's uber and lyft drivers people who are just trying to make a little extra money on the weekend. And it's like, what are you doing? So this was a Democratic proposal. It's called Assembly Bill 5. It limits gig workers.

It was pushed heavily by unions. And the journalists, man, when they started freaking out, I was right away, I was like, I can't hire contractors in California. OK, good. Glad. Good to know. I mean, you can, but like once or twice. Basically, I think journalists can only write 35 times, but some of these contractors

have multiple contracts. This makes sense. Like the way I explain it is, let's say you like to pick up pieces of wood on the beach and whittle it into a little boat. You did that work. And then you say, I say to you, I say, Lydia, I have this little Tim, this little man. It's adorable. It's a little me. Yeah, he's really cute. And I have made such art. I would like to sell it to you.

Okay. And the state says, you can't do that because you're not an employee. Oh. That's what AB5 basically is doing now. If I write something and want to sell it to a company, I can't now. The state is telling me I can't literally sell a good. It gets complicated now when it comes to Uber. The way Uber and Lyft essentially was working was that you do your thing, man.

We'll just connect you with people. Right. Which is fantastic. A judge ruled that Uber has to have all the people be employees. And so I guess Uber said this, right? They were like, yeah, if you don't rethink this, California, we will shut down Uber in the entire state. Yep. Talk about a state with bad leadership burning itself to the ground. I was talking to a friend in L.A. who said it's worse than it's ever been. Yeah, I was talking to a friend in Fresno who said the exact same thing.

Garbage is everywhere. Dude, violence. Yeah. You can witness anything you like on your front porch. This brings me back to the media bias. I wonder how many of you listening or watching live in a rural area or a suburban area? I'd be curious to know. Yeah, because we're in the suburbs

so we don't see what's going on in the big cities not i mean we're not going to go there nope i'm good yeah i don't want to go there but i was i was uh i was reading an article about new york for one mass exodus the moving companies are straight up like we're it's moving day and we're overwhelmed and overbooked to move people out of new york city yep but i was reading from other people who said that the city really is barren like manhattan especially because there's no stores yeah and i'm like i i want to i kind of want to see it yeah empty streets well that would have been traffic i would have been kind of like driving across california with absolutely no one else on the street. It was surreal. When we were driving through LA,

the streets were open, wide open. It was rush freaking hour. It was 5 p.m. and there was no one on the road. I felt like I was in a zombie movie. It was so strange. And then when I went to Philly, I went to Philly a couple weeks ago. And I don't know if it was because of coronavirus or because Philly's a dump,

but there was garbage everywhere. Like it was piled on the street corners. I saw a rat. I saw my first rat in Philadelphia. I was like, this is wonderful. I'm really glad to be here. This is very enriching. Get out of the cities.

Dude, yeah. Like who would stay there? And I walked past these really, really nice apartments. I was like, I wonder how much these apartments cost to rent because right in front of them, whoops, bumped my mic, there's this huge like wall of garbage and just literally rats running through it. And I was like, I would never live here. The rats can't get food anymore because there's no scraps. That's right.

So they're coming out and hunting. During the day. I saw, I read something about like somebody getting chased by rats, I think. Oh my gosh. Maybe this was not real. I hope not. Like, yeah like yeah you gotta google it fact check me on this one but i remember seeing like a tweet where they were talking about how in all of these cities because because there's no food anymore the rats are getting are starting to starve so they're coming out desperate and they're

going on hunts in packs yep yeah do you see the rat war no yeah there's like rat gang wars because they fight over food that sounds right remember the baboon gang war yes it was baboons right yeah yeah because there were no more tourists yeah yeah and they would flock out into the street man oh man we've created like i don't know what do you what do you call that animal dystopia it's like we in in in in our wake as human civilization we have created dependent subclass like communities pigeons and rats yeah these monkeys overseas and oh man you know what's always like kind of tripped me out pigeons are literally our garbage turning into living things and flying away that is a horrible like if yeah yeah if i told somebody like in in america our

garbage grows wings and flies away people would be like what are you talking about hear me out a guy's walking on the streets got cheeseburger in his hand and he slams it on the ground because he's lazy and right you know and now there's festering food a pigeon swoops down they all eat it that food breaks it down in their bellies turns into eggs and more pigeons yeah our garbage literally gets converted into birds and then our garbage our garbage literally gets converted into birds and then our garbage flies away and then comes back to pester us i mean not really pigeons kind of well they poop on stuff yeah but have you ever seen a baby pigeon they're so ugly you've never

seen one have you no well i haven't seen one you googled one yeah i did google one because they're really freaking weird looking i i think it is a privilege i think it is a privilege that our garbage flies away could you imagine if there were no pigeons garbage everywhere just rotting in the streets that's true pigeons clean it up and they leave but yeah so now because there's no people the pigeons are flying off yeah that's easy for them right but the rats have nowhere to go they're coming out of the ground they're coming out in packs you know what man we can we can complain about antifa in the far left all day and night but you know what really scared Like, if I see an Antifa guy,

I know there's certain limits to what they've done and what they can do. If I see a far right guy, like, I'll avoid them both. I mean, far right as in, like, you know, the colloquial, like, the real extremist, whatever. If I see an extremist, I don't care what their political ideology is.

I'll go the other way. I'm in my own business. I see a large group of rats, like, running around ravenous. I'm running full speed. Yeah, seriously. Because you get rabies yep i don't know all sorts of illnesses yeah what was okay the bubonic plague was carried by rats i'm just well that was the fleas wasn't it yeah so the fleas on the rat so if you touch a rat obviously you're in deep but rabies man i mean i don't want to end up like joe jorgensen i was just say, you don't want to get bitten by a bat.

We're supposed to be the ones biting the bats, not vice versa. That was a crazy thing. Did you guys see this? Joe Jorgensen, she's a libertarian candidate. She got bit by a bat. Had to get a... She had to go get shots, like a series of shots. Yeah.

Yeah. I hope she's okay. I really mean it. I mean, this is like a crazy thing to happen. Look, you know, when I see stories like this, I can't help but laugh. Yeah. At the absurdity of it. Don't you have to wonder what she was doing to get bit by a bat like she wasn't exactly on stage like ozzy osbourne trying to bite the bat and the bat was just like oh my gosh i need self-defense it was she was probably just like i don't know cleaning

her attic or something it's so weird to me i was like how do you buy a bat that's kind of cool i've seen a bat one time out here uh-huh so uh we've got a deck like you can go on it's like you know it's elevated and i've seen i've seen like they're kind of weird when you see them if you're not birds at first but they fly weird they flop around yeah kind of weird and if they bite you you gotta get a you gotta get a bunch of shots in your stomach or something those are the rabies shots have you ever seen that happen i have not seen that happen do you know how it works yeah so i didn't work in a doctor's office i would see the nurses administer some of the shots i mean and you would go and get shots from the nurses charge nurse and doctors who were there but i

never saw a rabies shot administered some of them you got to get in your butt sounds horrible no not rabies rabies is the stomach which your stomach also awful we're like into your stomach like literally not like your belly organ i think it's into the adipose tissue there as far as i know so your belly fat i believe fact check me on this man because i'm glad we have these vaccines dude rabies is scary i am too people think it's like they think it's like a zombie thing it's not not at all you can't swallow you keep spitting you start convulsing i think it dehydrates you really bad yeah because you can't swallow yeah and then you get foam foaming at the mouth

you do not want to get bit by a rat man don't get bit by a rat either we'll turn you into a libertarian well uh for most of you you probably know we'll uh we'll we'll we'll mention this uh crowder got his money back he did yeah this is really cool youtube will let steven crowder run ads after a year-long suspension for harassment that's i think that's bs i don't think he actually got suspended for harassment i think they said he straight up he didn't break any rules didn't they well the thing with carlos right carlos maza yeah i think is what they're considering harassment or whatever so it sounds like classic youtube nonsense i don't really know if it was actual harassment or it's just youtube's interpretation you know i think i think they were like we have no choice

because of the media wave yeah to do something but don't worry we'll figure it out well i remember thinking at the time i was like there's so much pressure on them to do something kind of like they're trying to exert pressure on facebook right now they have to do something so they're probably gonna like suspend him or whatever and they sure did for a whole year dude so why did they decide to give him his ads back they were always reviewing him that's my time that's the my my understanding is that he had to clean up his act there were certain things he couldn't have on the show but they they would reinstate him. And it's because it is interesting. He didn't break any rules, but they were like, it's a rock and a hard place. Yeah.

I think they should have stood firm. But there is a legitimate challenge when, like, if somebody came to me and said, we are going to shut down your entire business completely. You know, unless you do one small thing, you'll find a lot of people would say yes to it. Like for me, for instance, I won't say the name of the creepy whistleblower guy because they'll delete the stream instantly. And for me, I have my line. Well, we like talking to people. So we're not. Well, no, no. Like I'll tell you what, like I cannot say someone's name. I'm like, whatever. Right. But like, you know, when it came to I did a segment on masks and like hydroxychloroquine and stuff. And I'm like, if they ban me, they ban me. Like, I swear to God, like, I have my limits.

If the news is legit and it's and it's certified and we've got doctors, I'm saying it. You know what I mean? And maybe they'll give me the X. But I think what's happening is YouTube is saying, listen, man, everybody will lose their monetization in an adpocalypse unless we do something. So you can jump on the grenade or adpocalypse. Right. And I think YouTube said, you know, that's what we're going to go for. I completely disagree with this, with doing these things. Right. I think, you know, there are lines and limits. Like if I don't say a guy's name, I can still let you know that there is a name you can't say. You can Google this and it has to do with a CIA whistleblower and Ukraine and, you know, now you'll find the person and you can then investigate yourself.

If I get myself banned, I can't tell you that. However, I will never withhold vital and important news, even if it means the end. youtube deciding i can sacrifice an individual because we're scared for the collective to me is is how you get into authoritarianism yeah so crowder who broke no rules gets negatively impacted and i'm not okay with that yeah what's that saying you got to break a few eggs to make an omelet you're willing to sacrifice a few people to the greater good what is it like uh deontological philosophy versus i think that's what it is, but I haven't really gotten into that very much. Yeah, like I think utilitarian is like

the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few versus deontological where it's like you must protect the individual because there is no collective without an individual. Yeah, I'm toward the end of that. I think YouTube was wrong in this. I think Crowder broke no rules and if they came to me and said there's an adpocalypse because of what Crowder did, I'd be like, well like well crowd i don't do anything wrong so that's your responsibility

and while you're gonna lose ad revenue now i'd be like yeah that's that's that's that's uh that's too bad isn't it i'm i would not support a negative action against someone who did no wrong to benefit myself youtube should have absolutely stood their ground and said he didn't break any rules sorry you're stronger than youtube i think they're being kind of weak hopefully how about we do super chats yes let's do it super chats oh yeah david mesmer says would you still consider inviting adam on friday jam sessions i think that would satiate the actual peaceful protesters in the chat it makes for a really nice start to the weekend yeah i think there the there's like you know i know a lot of people want like a legitimate deep dive breakdown of everything that happened. And it's really just personal issues.

It's not the biggest deal in the world. It's not. I just I try to respect people's privacy. So we have to see how, you know, things go and how changes happen. And I'm sure most of the super chats are going to be specifically about this. So I'll try to, you know, I'll do my best to answer the best I can. It's about all I can do. And the Super Chats are bouncing around, making it difficult.

No. Caitlin Robinson says, you guys are awesome. Just so you know, the Justice for Canon GoFundMe has now raised $225,000. Whoa. That's awesome. Okay, that makes me really happy. Definitely. I really like that.

I was bummed when I read that it was only a few thousand. It was too. And it's not going to bring him back, but it's going to help. Yeah. Help's awesome. Okay, that makes me really happy. Definitely. I really like that. I was bummed when I read that it was only a few thousand. It was two. And it's not going to bring him back, but it's going to help. Yeah. That's really neat. The Grizzly says, first off, I would like to say I'm disappointed in the chat's behavior. Yes, Adam is gone, but he wouldn't like to see you guys acting like this. Anyway, I live in a rural farm.

Think I told you this during the Chaz farm. It's all pro-Trump out here. I'd be willing to bet it's pro-trump everywhere as much as we're talking about the silent majority i've not seen biden signs i really haven't either i've seen trump flags and you better believe i've been looking for him yeah we drove past that little lake again and guess what is still there in the middle of the lake it's really bleached you can hardly see it there's a bunch of grass and like pot lip uh lily pads and everything but you can see it it's still there it's awesome There's a bunch of grass and like pot lip lily pads and everything. But you can see it.

It's still there. It's awesome. It's a Trump flag. Yeah, it is. It's a Trump flag. It's not a Biden flag. It is a swamp. I've never seen one of those.

It's not even a lake. The Garden State is taking over. In the winter, you could see the water. Yeah, because everything was dead. And then I guess it's, I don't know. It's kind of crazy to describe this because it's not something you would actually, you can't get a boat into. Yeah.

So what did they do? Just walk across the lily pads at this point. I have no idea how they got in there. If you fell in that, you'd be under, like, it's not something you can't get a boat into. Yeah. So what did they do? Just walk across the lily pads at this point. I have no idea how they got in there. If you fell in that, you'd be under... It's a swamp. It looks like a field. Yeah. But it's not.

It's horrible. And they did it. Raul says, keep on rocking in a free world. Great stream. Appreciate it. Let's see. Where are we at? Tankian says, Adam, you need to see our bats in Australia.

They are basically flying rabid dogs. They'll take your head off. Oh, man. Those things are huge. Yikes, man. Everything's huge there. Let's see. Anthony Zolman says, Adam is the Paul to Tim's John and Lydia's George.

These beetles have no Ringo. Von P says, no Adam, no peace. Say his name. Adam, lives matter. Superman, if he wasn't scared of green rocks, says, please, for the love that is holy, keep doing the show. There are thousands of people who watch you and count on you to be our voices. You are all important to our community,

and the information you provide is worth more than you think. I really appreciate it. We're going to keep doing the show. And yeah. So also, shout out. You can follow me on Twitter and Instagram at TimCast and Parler. Yes. And you can follow at Sour Patch Lids.

I think I got to figure out what to point now. There you go. Yes. With an L-Y-D-S. Yeah, that's me. And also, for those that want more straight news. So this show is kind of conversational society and culture. I think that's actually how iTunes has listed it. Yeah, listed society and culture if you want the boring news i don't

think it's that boring you can go to timcast.net that's my main channel it's very straightforward and then from there it's like my whole network and a bunch of other shows so i do a video every day at 4 p.m then we do the live show later i actually put up an insane amount of work because i don't sleep or you know whatever but uh check outCast.net if you haven't. Most of you probably already know about it. There's more segments up. It's basically just me talking to the camera. But subscribe to my channel. John Hill says, well, YouTube is doing it again.

When I tried looking up your videos in my subscriptions, they weren't there just to let you know. Also, no matter who wins, November 9th is going to be nuts. I don't think we're going to know who wins. This is going to be... That's optimistic. Yeah. November 9th would be awfully earlier than I would be expecting to know.

Yeah. Yeah. It'll be crazy. Scott Rogers says, do you remember when we used to dance and incidents arose from circumstance? One thing led to another. We were young and we would scream together songs unsung. It was the heat of the moment. Yes, it was.

Indeed. I remember that song jmac says sad to see adam go but i'm also excited for him and for you guys as well now more than ever it's important to learn to agree to disagree with friends and family if we're going to make this country work we have to be able to live side by side and adam has a channel it's adam cast irl on youtube and he's got a ton of subscribers and he's he's like he's literally here setting up a studio and you can you know watch his stuff el diablo local poco says neither party has changed dramatically only your own perceptions of them have changed both are basically in the same positions they have held since the 1960s demo media propaganda

worked i don't agree i don't think so either there's videos of bernie sanders of joe biden of chuck schumer being like we need strong borders and a border barrier proposal yeah what what who is that bernie i i don't see anybody like that anymore who's that bernie you're breaking my heart bernie i think bernie he betrayed he betrayed he's a betrayal trump you know it's funny i was never on trump's team but Trump didn't betray his positions he didn't no he I think he failed some of them yeah but I think he's he's stayed true to what he said he was going to do yeah so I want to build a big beautiful wall well he got he got his barriers in key locations and he improved a lot of it so I'm like I gotta admit I don't care about the wall it's never been an issue for me there's so many other ways to combat illegal immigration.

It's not even about that. It's like, I understand how it benefited the economy. And I started to recognize like, oh, I get it now. I understand what he's doing. Right. It wasn't a key issue for me. Maybe it should have been. And I think what ended up happening is, I'll tell you what, where the Democrats messed up

is opposing their own positions. And then me questioning why it is they were mad about the wall in the first place. And then reading about it and being like, oh, that makes sense. When they could have just been like, we've always agreed with this too. Yeah. Hillary Clinton said we need a border barrier. You know, I remember I came up with so many videos of them talking about this stupid border wall. And so if they came out and said, we, you know, Trump wants to build a wall.

It's a little bit out. Like, imagine if Hillary Clinton stuck true to the border barrier and said, a wall. We want to build a barrier fence that's practical, reasonable and cost effective. Right. You're going to build a big, giant wall. Like, by all means, you do it. It would have sounded a bit more reasonable. And I think the problem the Democrats have is that Donald Trump has moderate

positions that most Americans agreed with for a long time. And the Democrats chose to oppose them instead of offering up a better take on them. Yeah, that's why I think like debate is essential because it's died. They didn't offer good ideas. I have an analogy for you. Yeah. Imagine Donald Trump walks in and he goes, we we're gonna order a double pepperoni pizza the best pizza yeah and you go man i don't like pepperoni so the democrats go then we hate pizza we hate pizza too like wait i know i don't like whoa hold on no i just i just i just want you know like sausage you know what i mean or you know tomatoes and you know whatever bacon yeah like i didn't say i didn't want any pizza, but they decided to go the extreme route.

You know? It's like a stupid thing to do. Yeah, I don't like it. John Kerner says, Tim, once again, a huge fan of your work. Your videos red-pilled and led me to register to vote. Yes. East Coaster here. And my lifelong best friend listens live from L.A.

Please tell him once again, tell Justin to register to vote. Justin. Yes, Justin. Register to vote. Come on, man. again tell justin to register to vote justin yes justin register to vote come on man you know i always do say too because i i i assume like i've said it a million times i feel like i've been backed into a corner i have to vote for trump yeah it would change you know i think it's funny i got a text message from from jack murphy so you got you got you guys you probably know who jack murphy

is because he wrote he wrote the book on it democrat to deplorable literally yeah and he like after the the last show earlier this week he was like tim is it true you're voting for trump and i'm i'm like laughing i'm like okay too and i was like yeah yeah jack's he's a cool dude he's a great dude check out his book he was one of our guests he was early on jack's cool dude and he was like just you know having fun with it and i'm like look man i'm i'm i'm upset about it honestly dude i wish that i were more excited about where we're at i wish i see i wish that i was excited i wish i had a candidate that i was really gung-ho about like i wish i felt like a bernie bro i wish i felt like really on fire for

somebody but you know what i would just like the country to not look like antifa wants it to people try to it's it's funny how people have like conspiracy theories. Man, I tell you, I'm to the best of my ability. I am honest every step of the way. I probably my opinions change. Some people don't like it. I read new information. I kind of say, oh, wow, I didn't consider that. And it happens. But I will tell you the truth when I say I'm not like as a president, I wouldn't normally vote for someone like Trump. I'm begrudgingly now, you know, feeling like I have to do it because of the repealing of civil rights law and all this stuff. But I'm going to admit it. I'm going to straight up admit I have no problem. I told my

friend straight up when she was like, everybody donate to Biden. I'm like, I'm probably gonna vote for Trump. And I don't care. You can get mad at me. If you don't give the time of day, you want my friend to begin with. But of course, I keep my friends close. The friends that I have are good people. And they literally small circle. Yeah, I definitely do. I'm in my, you know, house all day, every day. I don't go anywhere anymore. No, but I mean, I'll say it straight up. You know, a lot of people were like, we, I see a lot of posts are like, we know Tim's secretly going to vote for Trump. Anyway, he's won't admit it. I'm like, No, no, no, it was not until the riots for the most part. Because earlier this year, I was like, I want to see tulsi as a national security advisor i want to see yang

as an economic advisor i want to see trump and the wars in afghanistan and iraq and i want to see legal you know uh a pardon for non-violent marijuana offenders for the most part right and i was like and then and then and then everything went insane and then donald trump did try to withdraw our troops the middle east and i was like, OK, you know, you know what, man? I kind of feel obligated to my 16 year old self to support Trump's efforts in withdrawing our troops in the Middle East. Yeah. At the very least. I was out in the street protesting in Chicago.

I was marching and I was yelling. Yeah. I wrote songs about it. To be consistent. Yeah. And now it's I'm 34 and I can't believe I don't think I think I was maybe like 17 or 18. I can't remember exactly when this was.

And now I can't believe that I'm 34. And only now are we getting to the point where it's like we're not going to be in this country anymore. That's insane to me. Yeah, it's so stupid. But I got to give credit where credit is. I love that he's doing it. Love to see it.

Flat Earth Vegan Amy says I'm a USPS worker. What's the deal with Trump versus post office? They blame Trump. But USPS is to Amazon as blockbusters to Netflix. Post office leaks money. Antiquated. I'm conflicted. I don't know for the most. I don't know completely.

My general understanding is COVID. Like there's a budget shortfall for everybody. And they want Trump, I guess, to give them more funding. Yeah, it's part of so it's part of their coronavirus relief effort. Yeah. They're like, you're going to give billions of dollars to the usps and he's like they're not going to get it and i was like i mean i think that the reason they really really want it right now is so they can do all their mail-in voting which kind of makes sense to me that they're using it as a political pawn you should do that with the usps i think i i didn't actually listen to the recording

but i think trump said specifically like they're just doing this because they want mail-in voting exactly and then everyone's like he admitted it it's like yeah but so what i went and found that article and i clipped the direct quote of what he had said and it was not what they're saying in the headlines right given the full context he's talking about how this to him seems like a bargaining chip for them which it shouldn't be. He's like, this isn't going to work for us. Like, we need to figure some other compromise out. It is a fact that the Democrats are dangling food over people who are starving and, you know, in need.

They're dangling over them and demanding, like, voter stuff. And, like, they want to remove voter signature verification and voter stuff. They want to remove signature verification and voter ID. And so what they're doing is they're going to Republicans are saying, see all those angry,

starving people? Well, if you want them fed, you give us, we want to ban signature verification. What? That's an essential part of feeding hungry people

is banning signature verification on ballots. Just go with it. I feel like this is how it's been reported, okay, by multiple outlets. And I'm sure there's probably some nuance to it because I know there's a lawsuit that says it's not that they want to ban it. They want to open up the opportunity to fix your signature. But either way, I'm kind of like, what does that have to do with giving people unemployment

checks so they can pay their rent? Nancy Pelosi was talking about how essential it was, how this couldn't wait, how people are depending on this. And now they're taking recess till September, till Labor Day. Oh, yeah. Totally inconsistent. They don't care. They don't care at all.

I hate it. I think they just want to win. They want power. And I get really, really frustrated seeing people say things like, you know, why aren't we getting our paychecks? Congress is in the Senate. And I'm like, wait, wait, wait, wait. Trump is saying straight up, we we're gonna get you this stuff now to be fair republicans wanted to axe the bonus to 200 bucks right i'm sure that would make people angry but i don't think there

should have been a bonus in the first place right i do so i have to explain this to people i'm like you realize they said 100 unemployment guarantee plus 600 right that means no matter how much someone pays another person, they're going to make more than unemployment. Right. That's like designed to fail. Right. What were they thinking?

Even $200. Yeah. There's no competition. $10 more. Why would you work? Yeah. Seriously. $100 more.

Yeah. No, no, no. No bonus at all. Why would you work? Yeah, what's the point? If someone came to you and they were like, you can work 40 hours a week for 600 bucks or you can stay at home and we'll give you full unemployment benefits for the same salary. Play video games.

They're going to be like, I'll take it. I'll take the money for nothing. We saw the stories, man. I don't know the solutions. I'll tell you this. If we're going to give people a bonus, then so be it. Let's do it. But look, I think it's fair to point out the republicans wanted an fbi

building and they wanted like tanks or something i don't know they were a bunch of war stuff i tweeted about it i was like are the republicans preparing for a war it seems like they might be preparing for something a lot of people were like uh this is so weird why would they do this a waste of money and then other people were like i watched tim's content so i think he's talking about china i think he might be talking about this thing i've seen republicans say the fbi building makes sense yeah maybe i'm getting this wrong am i confusing this with the other bill i think it was their covid relief bill yeah yeah yeah yeah so this is their thing that they were kind of i'm not gonna i don't like either party i didn't tell you what you know but uh the voter signature i'll tell you what look there's

a reason for an fbi building there's a reason for tanks or whatever. Sure. Fine. Whatever. To me, it's silly and it's worthy of criticism. One hundred percent. But removing voter signature verification is like saying we'll give you food if you let us cheat the election. Eighty three days till the election.

They want to have time for this nonsense. So maximum case, he says adam or no adam i will continue to love and support the show i am saddened by this turn of events but you will not get any beef from me side note i was using nord vpn and youtube changed my currency to gbp i wasn't even connected to the uk no that's interesting weird vpn or something nick ellie says one of the reasons adam is so admirable because he did what everyone wants needs to do speak the truth and take responsibility for the consequences. Good luck to him

and the rest of you at TimCast. And he does have his own channel, AdamCastIRL on YouTube, where he's going to be doing his show and he's still here. Literally, we just had pizza an hour and a half ago and we were talking about Trump and stuff. So, by all means, we'll see how things roll.

Steven Rodriguez says, love what you're doing here tim love adam too but still support the show appreciate it man thanks man let's see what we got in the super jets bradley ledoux says can we add all the names of innocent children who have been murdered during the past few months it's horrible how the mainstream media has ignored them all but you know what man there there there there is media that's not ignoring it yeah there is uh there are conservative outlets you know he's really good about this is terry cruz even if no one else reports on this he he was tweeting out the list of you know say their names wow just little black kids who'd been shot he's like their lives matter too man nobody's talking about them because

it's all political dude these you know it's funny when i see my i i i i i'm losing friends to be honest oh man it's not like we there's there's not been a point where i've ever said i'm not your friend anymore right or it's been said to me but i'm telling you when i see a friend of mine post complete fake news support looting and destruction i'm like what has happened to you when did you become the person that championed pain and suffering? For what? Yeah, I get it, man. There's problems in this country. But how can you go from saying, I understand their problems. Let's try to make life better for everybody else to cheering for looting. I don't get it, man. There's an image of an

immigrant family hugging amid the rubble of their of their uh bodega their corner store yeah yeah man did their lives not matter seriously because you just destroyed them or there's there's a the people have a small restaurant in chicago windows busted out door busted out having to yeah i remember the guy in um minnesota the guy in minneapolis who had his bar completely destroyed before he even had a chance to open it like we raised him a million dollars yes we did awesome I really enjoyed that I you know I wish I could do I could you know do every go fund me everything but when I saw that story dude there was a guy in Minnesota in Minnesota he's a firefighter he's a family man he was he was just like the the American dream yeah and he opened his own bar and they destroyed it.

And then when he came back the next day, they burned the building to the ground. So it's beyond just and they were like stealing his safe while he was coming in. Talk about brutal. Well, the dude raised over a million bucks. I don't care what he does with it. He can buy himself a pony and go, you know, right around the countryside. I just wanted to be happy. Right.

Because it breaks my heart to see someone work so hard, play by the rules, and then get, you know, shortchanged by these, you know, just to have everything just torn, just destroyed in front of you. Yeah, for no reason. For nothing. And I'll tell you what. I feel similarly to a lot of these kids who rack up student loan debt. You got a bunch of young, dumb kids, and they're being told by everybody, you have to get out

loans. They go into this stupid college system, and now they come back out with indentured servitude, and they don't know what to do. And what to do and and what what do you think they're going to do they're going to vote for the commies right well you made the point that hard work has never really paid off for them and that kind of hit home with me i was like you know what you're right why would you want to work hard if it's never worked it's never worked out for you yeah what's even the point so their only thing government will do, like, it's just get sad and... Donald Trump, man, this guy, when he froze federal student loan interest rates,

I couldn't believe it. Yeah. I'm like, I've literally been calling for that on this show. Like, this is what we need to do. And you know what? This is kind of like the agreement they just came to today in the Middle East. This is because of coronavirus. And he is actually using it for good things. And think that's admirable that's amazing i think trump has really been improving i really do so too he's definitely mellowed yeah a lot of a lot of the bones i had to pick with him

about his tweeting nonsense have really gone out the window i think he learned he did i think he figured it out like hey wait a minute you can teach an old dog new tricks, it turns out, which is great news. Let's see. Aketsu says, Tim, I love your idea of having average Joes on the podcast. I am a site safety manager in NYC. I travel all over the city and I could tell you some stories, bro. P.S. I guess now that Adamcast is your competition, you could say it's complicated.

We definitely want to do average Joes, man. I was having a conversation with a contractor. It was fascinating. Yeah. The work work they do the bills they pay like when i was talking to this guy before covid telling me how like it's been the greatest year of his life his business is taking off he's hiring so many more people he's so happy to hear yep and and and the people working with him were straight up like they were going to vote for Trump because they were tired of the media. And I'm like, this is crazy. I was like, you're just regular dudes.

They weren't on social media. New Jersey. Yeah. This is a blue state. Default liberal. I think too much of our media landscape is dominated by people like me and not people like you. And now. What do you mean?

Because you're pretty centrist. No, we're politicos. Yeah. We are all even even everybody watching right now. What do you mean? Because you're pretty centrist. You're pretty. No, we're politicos. Yeah. We are all even even everybody watching right now. We're all relatively politically active. Like if you come to a show like this, you know. Yeah. You're paying attention.

Right. And a little bit or want to pay attention more. Yeah. You know. So I think there are people that get shut out. Regular people. Yeah. The original idea for the show

was to talk to regular people around the country. Once we move, I'm going to try and book, I say regular people, but yeah, it's going to be like a project manager for a building company. Yeah. And, you know, they'll probably be relatively politically active.

I'm not going to grab a random guy who's going to sit there and be like, I have no idea what's happening. What am I doing here? Well, I think any business owner you could talk to is paying some kind of attention. But even activists, too. I'd love to get like, you know, a politically active activist.

One of the challenges with having someone who would be like a far left activist is that it would be very adversarial. Yeah. We could probably have a good conversation, but I kind of feel like everyone watching in Super Chat and us would be like, oh, that's actually incorrect. Here's the source. Right. You're wrong.

Here's, you know. I'm going to set you straight, which is which is kind of i mean it's not really good conversation right right but i think we could absolutely find liberal personalities uh not personalities but like liberal individuals who could could you know make a good argument yeah i just don't think i i don't think they'll want to do it because they don't want to get canceled you know what i mean? It's too bad. I hate cancel culture. Think about how many people are scared to speak up.

And I have no problem saying, you know what? I'm probably going to end up voting for Trump. I feel backed into a corner. He's improved a lot. You know what I mean? What can I say? If he didn't, I definitely would be like, no way. Yeah.

You know, but he's not that bad. A lot of people wouldn't want to admit that. You know what, man? I don't care. This is what I mean when I say you can cancel me. I'll go down of people don't, wouldn't want to admit that. You know what, man? I don't care. This is what, this is what I mean when I say you can cancel me. I'll go down by the river and go fishing. It's like,

I'll speak what I, what needs to be spoken. I'll be tactful and strategic so I don't get, you know, banned unnecessarily. Right. Can maximize, you know,

what we're doing. But yeah, man, you know, I'm willing to say what, what, what I feel. I'm willing to be honest.

Yeah. Yeah. Let's see. Malta linus says no adam no peace but seriously i've enjoyed watching the two of you and previously invisible lydia and will continue to watch both of your irls cheers from the shrunken state of oklahoma and lydia always had a camera i have i'm glad to have a corporeal presence now corporeal body i'm glad to not be invisible anymore i didn't have a voice. Yeah, there was a wishing stone. It was amazing. I rubbed

it and a djinn came out. Yeah. And he told me, make your wishes. And if I make three wishes, the portal of the djinn world opens up. And one of the wishes was for Lydia to get a corporeal form. Yeah. And anybody who understands that reference, you are amazing. That was a reference

to an old movie. A series of movies. Tell me, what do you want? Just say, I wish. Oh, yeah. I love the, it's Wishmaster, okay? For those that don't know, I love that movie. Yeah, that movie's crazy. DJG says, great job, Lydia.

Thanks for filling in for Adam. Tim, thanks for being a voice of reason. We may differ in opinion, but it's great that someone out there is doing something. Also, spin that UFO. Yes, I will. I would love would love to have been waiting for this and you know what it makes me so happy when people message you and they're like i may disagree with you but i absolutely think that what you're saying is important i don't know if anyone can hear me now oh i don't want to knock it over oh this is my first time spinning the ufo lydia has spun the ufo it has been spun akapot says newly awakened race hate is the biggest social problem we have now.

The media, a.k.a. The Cathedral, look up Michael Malice, is totally complicit in this form in this from decades of pushing lopsided critical race theory. How do kids not grow up racist today? Tragic. Michael Malice is amazing. You can follow him on Twitter. He's a cool dude.

And I will also mention there was a leak of school, like, curriculum documents. And it was literally, like, the math problems. This is amazing. You got to hear this. Okay. Traditionally, like when I was growing up, the math problem was something like it said you have a bushel of apples and it's being delivered to, you know, the processing plant, which can hold a capacity of, you know, 12,396 apples, but your bag carries 13, blah, blah, blah. What percentage of apples will not be able to be processed?

Right. And in this curriculum, it says the police are stopping people in the city. If 17,326 are white and, you know, 10,000 are black, what percentage of the police are, you know, what percentage of people stopped are, you know, are African-American, 10,000 are black. What percentage of the police are, you know, what percentage of people stopped are, you know, are African-American, blah, blah, blah. Anyway, the point is, even the math questions that are trying to get you to just solve a simple math equation are framed in a intersectional way. It's so counterproductive.

What does this teach people? It's the cathedral. You got, like you mentioned about Michael Mills. It's the church. It's like the church of intersectionality. They tell you what is true. They tell you what to say and they indoctrinate you. Right.

Perfect. That makes perfect sense. Yeah. But there's no, it's like non-theistic and there's no end other than just chaos. And dude, you know what else there is not? There is no forgiveness. There is no coming back. The church has that.

The church has that. The church has redemption. Like there is a way to, there's a way to fix your problems or to turn to a higher power to fix your problems and dude they don't have that there's no confessional yeah like i i it's it's i grew up catholic briefly and you'd go into the confession booth it's yeah it was really funny when i was a kid i had nothing to confess did you make stuff up they told me to say whatever really that well it's like it's the weirdest thing i'm like i don't i didn't do anything wrong i haven't done anything yeah i'm a kid doing kid stuff but it felt it was weird because it was like like you know confess your sins and i was like i don't know i'm not as

a little kid i mean i snapped my brother or something i think i i think i remember one where i said that my friend offered me a Sour Patch Kid. And when I reached in the bag, I took two instead. Because I was like, was that wrong? I don't know. And I was told it wasn't wrong. They said, was your friend upset? I said, no.

And they were like, did they offer you more Sour Patch Kids? I said, yes. And they were like, I think they were letting you have they were sharing with you. I think you're OK. And I was like, OK. I was a little kid. I had no idea. Thank you. I love it. you all right let's see uh oh i read that one i read oh there we go i just jumped on

me i was like what's going on with this super chat does that on youtube man yeah fun have fun with us oh man kid truck says as a conservative not really republican it's been interesting to see how how large a group the right now includes. Small government, big government, gun control, no gun control, etc. That is crazy, man. Yeah. It is a big, big tent. I like it.

Yeah, seriously. Liberals. Pro-choice, pro-life. Standing side by side, holding hands. Dave Rubin, gay married man with Ben Shapiro, Orthodox Jew. Yeah, they're friends. We get along fine. Yeah. But I think Yeah, they're friends. We get along fine. Yeah.

But I think it's because we always really did get along fine. We just didn't. Like, if you look at the left and the right, the Democrats, the Republicans, they were very close and they overlapped. Yeah, I remember. Now it's Democrats are over here and Republicans. It's a secret that we agree on a lot of this stuff, that we're all Americans, that we all basically agree on the same things.

Not with the far left. No, they're off on their own little whatever. We can't even see them you know what man it really does feel like we're the democrats are the last vestige of the historical political party and we're going to have the america party and the the you know international party or whatever yeah it's going to be like the socialists and the americans and it might it might actually divide along terms of whether we want to be involved in wars because there are facets of each party that are super super involved in the uh you know the military industrial complex and they can have their own side of things and everyone else normal

and sane can be on the other side i think it's the internet you think so well i think the internet allowed us to challenge the establishment i think you're right right. It's been true with the Arab Spring. Like the fact that we're having this conversation right now. It's a platform that nobody's got. They want to ban us. Yes. I don't think they... That's how you're doing something right.

I'm being a bit facetious when I say that. There are certainly elements that want to, and it's a struggle. You see what they did to Crowder with taking away his monetization for a year. But it kind of feels like things are improving on YouTube. So I'm a little hopeful i am yeah i'm hopeful i feel like if trump wins and the republicans take control of everything there's going to be a lot of things i'm upset about but i also feel like there's gonna be a lot of things i'm i'm gonna breathe a sigh of relief about the country will still be standing

at the end of the day yeah so you will have things to be upset about and a country to be upset about them in right and then hopefully that's a reckoning for whatever counterparty, because maybe it's not the Democrats. Yeah. It's going to be like the Republicans are going to absorb every rational person. The Democrats have gone insane and will collapse. And the Republicans will split into like the centrist Republicans versus the, you know, the grand old public party.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? It's going to be like the same party's going to split or something. That would be good. Maybe that's a natural cycle. I don't know. Bobcat says, Tim, would you consider

talking about thorium reactors as a solution for clean power? Also, I noticed you might have an opening for an OSINT nerd that can run a soundboard. Where can I send my resume and demo of work?

Spin the UFO at Gmail? Is that? Yep. That's a good place to send it. You can send stuff to spintheufo at Gmail. You can also go to timcast.com slash donate and there's a p.o box if you want to send anything because someone said we get sent some really cool stuff physical objects physical objects
