Starting point is 00:00:00 This morning, Benny Johnson tweeted out a nine-minute-long video of people calling into C-SPAN and saying that they were leaving the Democratic Party and they'd be voting for Trump, and they gave a variety of reasons for this. The rioting, the Democrats move far left, the embrace of socialism, basically the same thing. But I guess you can say the far left, in many ways, is a reference to cancel culture and this weird identity politics. But we got big breaking news. I love saying news that way by the way news yeah because it makes it sound better uh no it's because luke says news uh doesn't uh what's his name on v drama say it too no news everyone news here's the breaking news six cities in the iron range a union democrat stronghold have just written a letter endorsing Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:00:47 And this is crazy. This is the biggest Democrat stronghold outside of the Twin Cities in Minnesota. And this is huge for one reason. It's funny. It's not just about it's not just these people have endorsed Donald Trump because there's more of the story. A lot of people are talking about these Republicans who are endorsing Joe Biden. Yeah. There's more to the story. A lot of people are talking about these Republicans who are endorsing Joe Biden. Yeah, and they're like, you know, oh, look at all these old Republicans supporting Joe Biden.
Starting point is 00:01:10 That means Trump is bad. Listen, I'll tell you what. These Republicans supporting Joe Biden are swamp monsters and spooks. People who used to work for intelligence agencies. So by all means, you can have them, okay? If they're going to go and endorse Biden, I'm not going to try and win them back over. Union workers, however, however, come on over. Right. Come on over now.
Starting point is 00:01:29 So, you know, I had I have some people on Facebook smack talking, saying things like I'm pretending to support Trump or whatever. And it's like, I don't understand. I could do four hours of content every single day. And people like just don't understand. Like, you could probably build a psych profile on me and map out exactly where I've been and where I'm going and make a prediction like, yeah, I imagine it'll be like, you know, here at this point.
Starting point is 00:01:51 Because it's really obvious. You know, before the riots, I was like, I don't know, I'm not going to vote for Trump. Then the riots happened. I was like, I bought guns. Now I have many guns. Interesting turnaround. I remember the first time I heard you say,
Starting point is 00:02:02 and I consciously noticed that you were talking about how big cities run by Democrats did not seem to be doing well. I was like, yes, yes. This is what I have been saying. How's it going, everybody? So we've got this. We've got some other. So we're gonna talk about this, too. I mean, this is huge. And we'll go over what the iron range is. And we got some other tweets. It's really crazy to me to see this paranoid, delusional bubble from the Beltway politicians. There this huge thread going viral and i mean viral viral where this lady's like trump is trying to become an autocrat the america america is falling to an autocratic takeover i just love the twitter universe twitter is not reality it is special facebook might be though yeah that's
Starting point is 00:02:41 another story that we have these uh journalists who are crying because Ben Shapiro basically owns Facebook. And I mean that in the sense they say he wants to own the libs. Well, like the top posts are almost always from the Daily Wire and Ben Shapiro. So they're accusing him of cheating and all this other stuff. And then we're going to talk about how college is bad and some other things. So if you haven't already, give that like button a good old smash because it does help support the channel. Sharing the video also really does help if you like the show. it's just me and lydia hanging out oh yeah but on monday we're gonna have kimberly klasick i'm really really excited about that yeah it's gonna
Starting point is 00:03:11 be really cool she has probably the like the biggest political ad ever right i think so yeah i feel like everyone has seen it at this point she's walking through baltimore in her high heels talking about democrat cities about democrat cities and's like, they don't really care. Look what's happened. She gives numbers. She's like, sure. I think the craziest thing about it was that she said a Democrat-run city is the worst place for a black person to live. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:35 And I'm interested to talk to her about that. Because I'm wondering, like, be specific. You know what I mean? Yeah. I mean, because I'm from Chicago. So I don't disagree. I'm just like, I wonder, you know, what is that? that like i want to hear depth on that because i believe it i'd like to hear some you know data you know what i mean yeah she has a lot of different views and approaches that i
Starting point is 00:03:54 would like to talk to her about too that'll be fun but for now the big breaking news so make sure you subscribe we do the show monday through friday live at uh at 8 p.m and check this out the first thing i want to show you is from ben Johnson. Many of you probably saw this already, but this is this is I don't know. It's epic, I guess. The amount of Democrats calling in a C-SPAN during the GOP convention saying that they're switching parties is insane. Democrats are leaving Joe Biden's radical left party for Trump. It's nine minutes long. But there's one thing I want to play. Actually, I don't think I can play something. It's working. But at the seven minute mark is a woman who says she fled socialism and that she's like an older lady, too, with an accent.
Starting point is 00:04:30 And she's like, if I have to lay my life on the line for to defend this country, I will do it. And I'm just like, I'm clapping like, yes. How does it how is that we have these these immigrants who escaped socialism saying I would die for this country and we have socialists born in this country saying like death to this country yeah man that's messed up well it doesn't translate to the actual working class check this out donald trump posted this to his website this is a letter signed by six may i believe six mayors yeah from what's called the iron range in minnesota i'll be completely honest i had not heard of the Iron Range until this happened.
Starting point is 00:05:05 I hadn't either. Yeah. I don't think there's, you know, not to be disrespectful, but I don't think there's a lot of people who live in the Iron Range. But let me read this so you get an understanding of what this means. And the first thing I want to do is I just want to show you that this is the Wikipedia page for the Iron Range. And they specifically note that it is, it's a largely unionized workforce. The rural areas remained Democratic Farmer Labor Party, not even the Democratic Party. It's the Democratic Farmer Labor Party. This is union straight up. Yep. And the DFL basically is associated with the Democratic Party. They say the area remains the greatest Democratic stronghold
Starting point is 00:05:40 in Minnesota after the urban centers of Minneapolis and St. Paul. They say in 2016, Donald Trump's populist message enabled him to gain ground in the Iron Range, winning multiple counties and reducing the Democratic margins of victory in others. Well, I want to show you what actual working class people in this country believe, because there's something I noticed about, I don't know, everything from the far left. They're young, unhinged, and typically well off. And they're screeching about socialism. And I'm like, none of these people work. Like, where's the 50-year-old dude who's like got a construction hat on who actually, you know, does labor, you know, like farmers? Right. Well, remember that, who was that guy, Banks,
Starting point is 00:06:23 who was saying that the rioters and protesters can't get unemployment. They're just not working. They're not working at all. They have all the time in the world to protest. Jim Banks, right? Yeah, yeah, I think so. So there's a, is he in Congress?
Starting point is 00:06:34 He's Indian. I think he's a rep. Rep. Anyway, this Republican from Indiana is saying that he wants to cancel federal unemployment benefits for people convicted on rioting charges. Think about what that means. That means right now there are far left rioters romping around, screeching about how they hate this country,
Starting point is 00:06:52 and they're being subsidized by our taxpayer dollars. That makes me feel real good. Oh, man. Let's read this letter and feel a little bit better. Okay, sorry about that. You can see it's from DonaldTrump.com. They say, on August 28th, fellow Americans, as greater Minnesota mayors from Democratic cities on the Iron Range of Minnesota,
Starting point is 00:07:09 we write today to formally endorse the reelection of President Donald J. Trump and Vice President Mike Pence. Like many in our region, we have voted for Democrats over many decades. We have watched as our constituents jobs left not only the Iron Range, but our country. By putting tariffs on our products and supporting bad trade deals. Politicians like Joe Biden did nothing to help the working class. We lost thousands of jobs and generations of young people have left the Iron Range in order to provide for their families with good paying jobs elsewhere. Today, we don't recognize the Democratic Party. It has been moved so far to the left. It can no longer claim to be advocates for the working of the working class. The hardworking Minnesotans that built their lives Democratic Party. It has been moved so far to the left, it can no longer claim to be advocates
Starting point is 00:07:45 of the working class. The hardworking Minnesotans that built their lives and supported their families here on the range have been abandoned by radical Democrats. We didn't choose to leave the Democratic Party. The party left us. Doesn't that sound familiar? That's getting really repetitive at this point. It is. It's almost kind of boring to hear. It's like, I get it. I get it. You're a liberal, too. I know. Come over and vote for Trump.
Starting point is 00:08:07 We've all decided to do the same thing. I don't consider myself a conservative. And even sitting down with Sean Parnell, he's like laughing like you are not right wing. Oh, no. Yeah, I agree. Conservatives can see it. They're like, get out of here, you hippie skateboarding, you know, whatever. And but I, you know, the way I described it earlier is i mean they they hit the nail on
Starting point is 00:08:26 the head it's just gone so far to the left doesn't represent working class people anymore i don't even know what they represent you know the funniest part about this to me is watching twitter the fake world of twitter talk about the people who are like calling into c-span and the people who say you know the democratic party has moved too far left watching people on twitter say oh these are just trump supporters these people aren't telling the truth and i honestly am a little bit entertained to think about what's going to happen in november when they find out that these people are actually telling the truth you know maybe we're in the bubble but i just i don't know i don't believe it i don't think so i kind of trust myself because i try to think that i'm paying attention i give
Starting point is 00:09:03 room for other people's thoughts but they they they they pointed out and we still have more to read in this letter because they go through how Trump helped them and we'll get to it. But a lot of these people point out the TV ratings for the DNC where we're higher. I think that has a lot to do with the fact that Republicans follow both news sources. So I've shown this graph before. So this is a justification for why I think, you know, the more people are going to vote for Trump for obvious reasons. I mean, walk away is real. Yeah, we heard it on C-SPAN. There's no like never. Trump is just like a bunch of crony establishment people. But there's a graph often show that that shows conservatives get about a third of their news from liberal sources, mainstream sources and two thirds from conservative.
Starting point is 00:09:39 Moderates are inverted, two thirds from mainstream and one third from conservative. But liberals, the left, they only get their news from left wing sources. So that says to me that when it comes to the DNC ratings, Republicans were watching. Yeah. Democrats probably weren't watching the RNC. So it made the numbers bigger. And then when the RNC happened, you had some journalists, but I doubt regular, you know, like traditional liberals watched or cared. But hey, some people also pointing out that it's because Trump supporters wanted to watch online. And I think that's a fair point, too, because we were watching the RNC.
Starting point is 00:10:09 And at first we were watching on PBS. Yeah. And all they did was like interject to rag on Trump and Republicans. Their commentary was awful. Yeah. And they had that lady. What's her name? Yamiche, I think.
Starting point is 00:10:19 Yeah. Where she had tweeted out making fun of like slamming the dude, Cawthorn. Yeah, Madison Cawthorn, who's in a wheelchair. He's paraplegic. Yeah, sorry. Yeah, he can't stand. And he managed to do it. And she's like, he is making light of the people who kneel.
Starting point is 00:10:36 Yeah, right. So Madison Cawthorn stands for his speech at the RNC. And it's, like, a huge effort because he's paralyzed. Yeah, he stood for the Pledge of Allegiance. For the Pledge of Allegiance. For the Pledge of Allegiance. Yeah. And then this woman from PBS says that he's like doing it as like a slight against all those who would kneel.
Starting point is 00:10:52 And I'm like, he's standing up because like he's showing that he believes in this. Like, it's not a slight against you. It's just standing up. I don't get it. It's like. He thinks it's important. It's inspirational. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:03 But she's giving commentary during the RNC and all she was doing was like making like like just lying and they had one guy on who like they did the verified people hoax yep they kicked off strong with that so i was just like i turn on c-span yeah it was way better i think that c-span is an an underappreciated important part of c-span's great yeah you just play it you're like here and then people calling into yeah imagine if we're so. Let's read some more of this slide. This is really amazing stuff because now they get into the praise for Donald Trump. They say, we didn't choose to leave the Democratic Party. The party left us. Yet four years ago, something wonderful happened. Donald J. Trump was elected president of the United States and he stood up to China, implemented tax cuts and
Starting point is 00:11:42 fought for the working class. Now, four years later, the Iron Range is roaring back to life. And for the first time in a very long time, locals are hopeful because of this president's policies and willingness to fight for us. Lifelong politicians like Joe Biden are out of touch with the working class, out of touch with what the country needs and out of touch with those here, those of us here on the Iron Range and in small towns like ours across the nation. In this election, there's a lot at stake, but the biggest risk is our jobs, our economy, and our way of life. President Trump delivered the best economy in our nation's history, and President Trump will deliver for us again. He will continue to fight for every American,
Starting point is 00:12:18 regardless of party affiliation, and continue to stand up for the working class. Today, we write to formally endorse President Donald J. Trump and Vice President stand up for the working class. Today, we write to formally endorse President Donald J. Trump and Vice President Mike Pence for four more years. And we got Larry Cuff of Mayor of Virginia, John Ciampa, Mayor of Chisholm, Chuck Novak, Mayor of Elliott, Chris Swanson, Mayor of Two Harbors, Robert Vlasov, I'm sorry, I can't pronounce, I'm not trying to be mean, but Vlasov Lijovic. I hope I got it right. I'm not trying to be mean, but Vlaisev Lijovic. Hope I got it right. I definitely didn't.
Starting point is 00:12:48 Mayor of Eveleth. And Andrea Zupanchich. I can't pronounce these names. I mean, no disrespect. Yeah, I just, that's my bad. No disrespect. Mayor of Babbitt. So these six mayors.
Starting point is 00:13:01 And this is, like I mentioned, according to Wikipedia, the greatest democratic stronghold in Minnesota after the urban centers of Minneapolis and St. Paul. Not even the suburban areas of the Twin Cities. I really like this. Look at this. Okay, it goes. The Iron Range is known for Cornish pastries stuffed with carrots, ground beef, and potatoes. Pastries were an easy lunch for people working deep in the iron mines slovenian and croatian immigrants brought the honey nut bread called podica to the iron range region that still served eastern christmas in northern minnesota
Starting point is 00:13:30 that is really cool like so those crazy last names we're seeing are actually from slovenia cool croatia that's neat i kind of like that piece of history from them and you know what about them and the democrats they just call it the flyover states yeah that's nonsense this is a really cool place particularly disrespectful to people who don't live in new york and los angeles and this is crazy to me you know uh i'm seeing a lot of posts on facebook talking about the kyle rittenhouse so for those i'm sure most of you are familiar he's the dude who lives in antioch which is about 20 minutes out of kenosha and he went in he had a gun and you know chaos ensued they attacked him someone fired a round into the air he he shot killed the the guy, chased him. It's, you know, for the most part, it seems like
Starting point is 00:14:09 it really was self-defense. And we're going to break down everything that happened because we've got a thread from a journalist from Slate who just lies the whole time. And I think it's, you know, kind of escalating to a dangerous place. But anyway, the point was, I see a lot of people bringing this up and, you know, I kind of forgot I kind of lost my train of thought once I started thinking about what went down in Kenosha and started yeah so the mining people and the people who are no I lost it yeah no I lost it all right I had a point I had a point then I started just imagining everything that went down and I'm like oh man it's getting really distracting yeah yeah but anyway anyway I guess the general idea is people don't understand
Starting point is 00:14:43 what it's like to live in these small towns that are, they call it like across state lines when he comes from Antioch to Kenosha, but it's like they live on the border. Right. These are areas that are very, very far apart. And this kid probably used to hang out in Kenosha all the time. But anyway, more to the point, one thing I find really interesting is they mentioned that Joe Biden has lost touch with the working class.
Starting point is 00:15:08 And considering this is like a union area, I thought it find really interesting is they mentioned that joe biden has lost touch with the working class and considering this is like a union area i thought it was really interesting because there's that video of joe biden in the in the factory and that union worker comes up to him and he's like you want to take my guns away and joe biden just insults him yeah do you remember what biden what did he say what did he say to him that was where he said look fat wasn't no no no that wasn't the look fat moment okay the look fat was when like an older, fatter guy was like Joe. And then he was like, look fat. Oh, he called him like a damn liar. Yes. Yes. I think that's what happened. That's the one I think.
Starting point is 00:15:31 Yeah. And I was like, are you serious? He went, this guy wants to vote for you. He just has a question about your policy and you're calling him a liar. Joe Biden calls Joe Biden tells his own voters not to vote for him. Yeah. More than one occasion. Yeah. So to be fair, I want to show you this. And I want to make this point. This is a website called defendingdemocracytogether.org.
Starting point is 00:15:50 Oh, boy. They say, you know, blah, blah, blah. They don't like Trump. Donald Trump is impaired. You get all these reasons for why they don't like Trump. I get it. I get it. I'm not going to read it.
Starting point is 00:15:57 You know why? All of these people are, you know, former Homeland Security Secretary of State, NSC staff, CIA, NSA, trade rep nsc a lot of intelligence agency people and former republicans and i i just i'm i'm you know somebody sent me this i posted the the what was it what he's a former okay so one of these guys is a former senior director for n and oh nsc okay i thought it said nbc no nsc we got news yeah national security what is it national security council that's what i figured yeah so i posted the thing about the the iron range yeah and i think there's a huge deal that democrats are straight up being like trump
Starting point is 00:16:35 is helping us these are union guys because we've heard a lot of the same things especially from people like sean parnell someone countered by posting this saying, oh, yeah, look at these people. And I'm like, yeah, you can have them. Seriously. I don't want to keep it. So the swamp is angry at Trump. Good. And the union workers in the middle of this country are thanking him. Is that a hard choice?
Starting point is 00:16:57 No, that's great. I think that's perfect. And I think it's perfectly indicative of what he's been doing. The swamp doesn't like him, but normal people do. I don't understand what's happened. How is it? How is it the Democratic voter base has become so unhinged and blind to this? So anyway, like I kind of remember the point I was trying to make before when I was talking about Kyle Rittenhouse is that people seem to think, you know, when I post these things, they're saying things like, you know, the majority of this country doesn't agree with you and this guy's a terrorist and you know everybody wants trump out and i'm like do you do
Starting point is 00:17:30 you read the news or is it just memes because on facebook it's dominated every day by ben shapiro and you know daily wire and fox news it is memes and i'm sorry i'm curious if some of the reason that i think the reason that democrats did not tune into the RNC was because they know that they can just wait until tomorrow morning and they'll just hear exactly what they want to hear from people like Yimish and everybody from PBS Trump speak, which probably triggers them. I mean, you know, I so I jokingly have been posting things like Trump landslide. So the first thing I post on Facebook is that Benny Johnson clip where you get these C-SPAN callers. Nine minutes. I swear. I'm like, I got to listen to it. It's my job. It was great sitting there. I know. And I'm clapping and laughing. There's like ladies. It's kind of crazy to hear like just this middle aged woman being like the riots are near my house. The Democrats won't talk about it. And I'm imagining just like my hokey old neighbor, like they don't pay attention. They're normies. They mind their
Starting point is 00:18:33 own business and they're scared right now. Yeah. And the Democrats praised the protests. Who was it who said that? I think it was. I think I actually have it right here. Yeah, check it out. The Atlantic. This is how Biden loses. Nothing will harm a campaign like the wishful thinking, fearful hesitation or sheer complacency that fails to address what voters plainly see. Oh, boy. I mean, look at this. They let me just read the paragraph. They say it's no use dismissing their words as partisan talking points in reference to Trump's law and order. They are effective ones backed up by certain facts. Trump will bang this loudly, ugly drum until election day. He knows that Kenosha has placed Democrats in a trap. They've embraced the protests and the causes that drive them. The third night of the Democratic
Starting point is 00:19:18 Convention was consumed with the language and imagery of protest as if all Americans watching were activists. That's the point written here by the Atlantic. This is how Joe Biden loses the Iron Range. A Democrat stronghold has six cities from the Iron Range, not the entirety of has endorsed Donald Trump. We also heard the story from CNN a little while ago. They went to like the northern tip, which is probably a similar era, you know, probably in the Iron Range. And they found they said it's a Democrat stronghold that supports Democrats locally and votes Donald Trump nationally. Yes. And they're all proud of it. Yeah, they don't mind. So I have to imagine this. Actually, let me let me let me give you some context. First, Michael Tracy, who is one of
Starting point is 00:20:03 the few journalists who actually exists, albeit he's very snarky on Twitter when he talks about, you know, politics, but he actually got in a car and he drove to small towns and he saw the destruction and he saw many of these people doing what I would call begging spray painting on their windows like, please don't hurt us. We support Black Lives Matter. He went to towns that no one that got no coverage that nobody even probably knew had riots until he went there. Now, imagine this. You live in some of these towns. They're Democrat towns. And you turn on the TV and you tune in to the DNC. And what do they do? They show the protesters. They show them raising their fist. And you think to yourself, aren't those the people
Starting point is 00:20:45 that just smashed up my windows that I'm scared of? Yep. I'd bet. Yep. And they're getting spotlight and not you. And well, it's the Democrats supporting them. Yeah. And now it's blowing up in their faces and they know it. And that's why The Atlantic has this article. Check this out. They say on Monday, the day after Blake's shooting, Biden and his vice presidential nominee, Senator Kamala Harris, released statements expressing outrage. The next day, Biden's spokesperson released a statement opposing burning down communities and needless destruction. And on Wednesday, Biden, after speaking with the Blake family, condemned both the initial incident and the subsequent destruction. Burning down community communities is not protest. He pleaded
Starting point is 00:21:21 in a video. It's needless violence. He said the same after George Floyd's killing. How many Americans have heard him in the crude terms of a presidential campaign? Voters know the Democrat means means it when he denounces police brutality, but less so when he denounces riots to reach the public and convince it. Otherwise, Biden has to go beyond boilerplate and make it personal. Memorable. I don't buy it. No no you know why i don't buy it when he says whoa the destruction is bad because then the dnc puts up the videos the guy with the cape you don't remember you guys see that thing where like actually it's that tweet that i put up let me billy porter i'm gonna try to find it so it's this guy who's dancing and he was like it was
Starting point is 00:22:00 the cringiest thing i'd ever seen it really did did look like a high school. No, I got it. Here we go. Oh, look, this is this image of the protests and this guy with the cape singing this protest song. And this person said, we're going to lose, aren't we? I love this, this, this image because it's like, yes, I'd imagine you are. But this protest image, listen, if you've got a bunch of people marching through the streets, raising their fists like he is right here, screaming Black Lives Matter while smashing things. And the Democrats go on go on TV and with a smile on their face, go peaceful protests. And you're like, they smashed up the bakery by my house.
Starting point is 00:22:37 Yeah. Or not even that. You know, when they talk about smashing up Starbucks and they talk about smashing up banks. I'm like, did you ever stop to think about what the average person feels or thinks to themselves when they see that? So I was I was in D.C. on they call it J-20. It was Trump's inauguration in 2017. They smashed up McDonald's and Starbucks and like some banks or whatever. And I was talking to somebody because I tell them this all the time. You ever stop and think about what that, you know, a regular person who shops there is thinking once they walk up. Can't go there anymore. They're thinking, why can't I go to Starbucks? I got
Starting point is 00:23:07 work. I need coffee. Why can't I go to my bank? Why can't I deposit my paycheck? And now I'll one up that. I said, do you ever stop and think about what the person who worked at Starbucks is thinking after you do that? No, I can't work. Why did they do this to me? That's what they're thinking. Why me? Why me? What about the person working at the bank? I was talking to somebody during Occupy Wall Street. I'm like, do you know how much that person makes in that in that small little office? They're probably making like 40 or 50. Well, it's New York. So maybe like 60, 70k. All right. That is not middle class median for New York. They're probably working really, really hard to try and get by because New York City is very
Starting point is 00:23:42 expensive. I understand in most parts of the country, 70k is probably a lot. But some of these people in these offices are probably only getting like 50, if that. And I said, do you know what they're thinking now that you smashed the window and there's glass all over their desk and their computer? They're thinking, what did I do? I don't understand. And the people who go to that bank as customers are thinking like, I got to make deposits today. I got to get a cashier's check to pay for my deposit for my new apartment. Why did they do this to me? Now I got gotta go to a different bank how how frustrating is that and they don't understand why they are being attacked now imagine this you're in a small town you know you're like remember that video from i think it was like was it was it rochester or
Starting point is 00:24:17 syracuse where the lady gets attacked by the group of those that met those men you know i'm talking about the husband and the lady of the fire the fire department equipment store and there's like three dudes tacking this yeah so imagine that you're in a small town you're minding your own business the news doesn't talk about you the new york times doesn't talk about you cbs cnn they don't care about you you're in a small town and you're being beaten and your wife is being beaten yeah and then you're just angry and you're like someone's got to do something about this mayor is nowhere to be to be. Democratic mayors know where to be found. Governors saying peaceful protest. Then you turn on the DNC.
Starting point is 00:24:50 And what do they do? They show the people who attacked you. Man, I'd be angry. I would too. And you know what I would do? I would call C-SPAN. I'd be like, hey, guess what? I'm leaving the Democratic Party.
Starting point is 00:25:01 They've moved way far left. I just watched the DNC and they're full of nonsense and I don't like it. I'm scared. I'd do what I'm doing the democratic party they've moved way far left i just watched the uh the dnc and i'm they're full of nonsense and i don't like it i'm scared i do what i'm doing now yeah you know it's funny because i've talked about this you know several times when the riots hit their peak in june i heard helicopters and sirens i remember that i heard them too we're in the suburbs i was like there's no way no way because we're like we're in the suburbs of the philadelphia area but we're on the jersey side you got to cross the river and I'm like we're far away you know but no it was it was within a few miles we could see we could see and hear the helicopters and sirens and I was like how did they get anywhere near us that's crazy that was an uncomfortable night and then I went out and
Starting point is 00:25:40 bought guns yes because I was like what do I do if they show up to my house because they've shown up to people's people's houses and then when look i i can't believe i'm gonna show you this i can't look at this mayor ted wheeler today i sent this letter via email to donald trump declining his recurring offer to aid portland by sending federal enforcement to the city what a piece of garbage garbage garbage we're inbage. We're in Jersey, so that's the point. Yeah, that's the point, yeah. Dude, come on, man. What is it at this point? Is this just a virtue signal?
Starting point is 00:26:11 Does he think he's actually getting something done here? What is he doing? He's supporting Trump. Seriously? Dude, listen, listen. If at this point you have Mayor Frey of Minneapolis. You know they rioted in Minneapolis over a guy who killed himself? Yes, I remember that.
Starting point is 00:26:27 It was a couple days ago. They don't care about any of this cause. A murder suspect was running from cops, killed himself. They literally had camera footage of it happening. It didn't matter. Didn't matter. And that's why I get really bothered when mayors like Ted Wheeler virtue signal by being like, I stand with the protesters.
Starting point is 00:26:44 They don't care if you do or not. They're going to go smashy smashy no matter what happens. bothered when mayors like Ted Wheeler virtue signal by being like, I stand with the protesters. They don't care if you do or not. They're going to go smashy smashy no matter what happens. They're like, something happened. Can we make it an excuse? Let's go smash. And what's happening is the more they do this, they can count on the media to cover it up. Think about it this way. If the Washington Post, the New York Times and cnn were like how dare these rioters come out because a man killed himself that's not the fault of the cops they didn't though imagine if they did the rioters would get caught and they'd have zero sympathy well you could have you could have put cultural pressure on them you could have been like this is not okay everyone knows it here is some peer pressure against you and because the media doesn't do this if they get arrested
Starting point is 00:27:23 they're like black lives matter yep do something yep arrested, they're like, Black Lives Matter. Yep. Do something. Yep. So now they're going out and looting for whatever. And you got Mayor Frey. What is his name? Tom Frey?
Starting point is 00:27:32 Or is it? His name is, what's his first name? No. Wilbert. Wilbert Frey. Winston. Winston. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:38 I don't know. His name's Frey. Whatever. The chat's going to blow up. We know his name. So he's agreed to call in the National Guard over this good Governor Evers in Wisconsin
Starting point is 00:27:50 agreed with Trump and will accept federal law enforcement and bolster the National Guard numbers and I'm like thank you I'm clapping dude I wish you would have done it sooner I think they're too obsessed with their poll numbers and it's kind of pathetic but I'm happy they're doing it now still not gonna vote for them vote for them in their party because
Starting point is 00:28:08 of it, but I can respect that they're doing it right. Ted Wheeler coming out and being like, nah. Sticking to his guns. You know what? Look at Cernovich. He said, you just bankrupted Portland with that letter. No, no. Seriously. He's supporting Donald Trump. I think you're right. I would like to thank Mayor Ted Wheeler for all of the support he's given to President Trump by doing these things for 93 plus days. No, this is what really bothers me, because if it's true, like, come on, man, how stupid is Ted? Come on, man. Look fat. How dumb does Ted Wheeler got to be? Pretty dumb. So I'm getting two different vibes here. I'm getting a real strong MAa vibe a whole uh i actually support donald trump and i'm afraid to come out and say it but i'm going to say that i don't want federal
Starting point is 00:28:49 aid or i'm getting like a high school beta dude type vibe where there's a really cool guy and he really wants their approval so he's going to do whatever they want but they just keep ignoring him they're like yeah yeah whatever we don't want you here just i think it's more of a male feminist vibe that's i get that too there's like ted wheeler knows some some like raunchy chick that he's like since he was a teenager and she's like you know she's like squatting in some building oh gosh and he's like um roxanne uh i told the police to stand down that's cool right and she's like yeah whatever i don't care he's like uh do you want to like go on a date i told you i'm not going on a date with you ted yes okay but like you know just let me if you want the police to stand down because like that's that's kind of cool right it's like yeah whatever so it's so
Starting point is 00:29:32 it's kind of like the high school thing except it's a chick except he's like 50 it yeah gosh no i i think this dude is desperate i mean listen at a certain point you have to recognize everything you're doing is helping trump yeah that's like that's why i'm getting a maga vibe so so to be fair though the writers didn't come out last night yeah and i think it's because they were going to kenosha yeah the the police in kenosha saw i guess they saw a riot kitchen which is from seattle and like pulled up like a van tried like fleeing so they this is crazy they went up to the car they stopped it drew their guns smashed the windows took all the people out and arrested them they
Starting point is 00:30:08 arrested them on disorderly conduct which sounds kind of bs to me to be honest because they weren't really doing anything right yeah they were like they were filling up gas cans yeah at a time and it's legal it is yeah but they had a big bus at riot kitchen on it huh and so i i think it's fair to say there's probable cause to like stop and detain them but the disorderly conduct thing was was kind of you got to be careful exclusionary rule if the cop you know first of all first and foremost you violate the fourth amendment you're i'm i'm not happy about that people have better i understand there's rioters coming to your town from out of state but they got to be careful because if they if they uh if they do this illegally then the exclusionary rule is going to negate all the evidence they found and
Starting point is 00:30:44 they found illegal fireworks. But anyway, Andy Ngo tweeted this out. He said it was peaceful yesterday for like the first time in 93 days, like no one really came out. And I think it's because they were heading to Kenosha.
Starting point is 00:30:55 It could also be because the feds have dropped the hammer. Yeah, it could be a combination of those two. Yeah, if that's the case, then maybe Ted Wheeler got lucky and it was more of the South Park homeless strategy as opposed to policing. lucky and it was more of the South Park
Starting point is 00:31:05 homeless strategy as opposed to policing. Have you ever seen that episode of South Park? Possibly. Remind me. Okay, so in South Park, there's like homeless people slowly showing up in the city. And so Kyle one day gives 20 bucks to one of the homeless guys. And then the next day, there's like 100 homeless guys in front of his house. And so their strategy finally was they got a big armored bus and then started singing a song about how in other cities they'll
Starting point is 00:31:29 give you whatever you want and then all the homeless people followed after the bus as they were like in the city of santa monica they're really nice to the homeless they'll give you everything you want piper for homeless people exactly gotcha and so the strategy was when you got a big problem in your city and it's causing you know serious mayhem all you got to do is get the people to go to someone else's city so ted wheeler was like sitting in an office crossing his fingers like come on i just need cops to kill somebody in another town and then they'll leave that's horrible i'm only i'm only half kidding i could see it because their strategy was to have the police stand down and like to prevent escalation prevent escalation
Starting point is 00:32:01 so you you have to recognize that part of them was like counting down the moments till some other police brutality happened and then they'll leave and go somewhere else yes yeah interesting so here's here's what bugs me though yeah what is that bugs speaking of bugs speaking of bug there's a bug there's a bug nice uh i wonder if you can hear that probably what bothers me is like i don't think ted wheeler is intentionally trying to help trump but could you imagine if he really was i can i would feel manipulated yeah no the reality is ted wheeler is wow so desperate to virtue signal to the far left that even after everything's happened and the people like people are calling in c-span and droves like i'm quitting the party he's like no you know we don't want your help we don't we don't want cops to come
Starting point is 00:32:49 in here and stop the violence yeah we're cool with it he's a desperate guy yes he is i don't think it'll work out too well for him but uh let me show you this chadwick moore tweeted something interesting new york's population is 50 50 nyc and and upstate. 20% of New York City fled and probably won't be voting. All the conversations I have with inner city blacks and immigrants point to them voting Trump or not voting at all. What are the NY GOP groups doing to get out the vote? Nothing. New York is in play. He says New York GOP groups are going to completely miss this opportunity. Sad. I love how people do that Trump thing now. Sad.
Starting point is 00:33:26 Like you add a word at the end of your tweet. This is designed by Twitter. You're running out of characters, but you really need to convey one last feeling. Sad. Yeah, it's almost, it's like not enough to put an emoji. Yeah. No, no, no. It's like a male version of emoji.
Starting point is 00:33:41 Like women put emojis and men, this is true. Men send emojis to women and women send emojis to men and women. But men rarely send emojis to each other. Interesting. It's like all very like formal and cordial. So you don't put a sad face. You put sad. So like you just say it.
Starting point is 00:33:57 It's like I am very sad about this. I understand you are sad. Let's carry on. Good, sir. Very, very testosterone. Anyway, he says the latest polls show biden is ahead by only five points in new york where is the gop i bring this up to follow up on all that stuff we were just talking about the gop sucks yep not doing any like uh we who
Starting point is 00:34:17 did we have on uh sean parnell i think was talking about this yeah people will ask him like you know are you getting support from the party and it's like no no well uh brandon struck was saying the same thing he's like i haven't really had any support from the republicans and i don't know when to expect it or if to expect it i'm like you know that says to me i think both parties are dead yeah and and what's what's happening right now with the democrats is they have no leader and because there's no leadership that the party is broken and the both parties are broken but there is a trump and a trump is unifying if there was no trump the party would fracture and that's that's that's i think so so you expect there to be every few years they find a new leader to guide the party and obama was that for the democrats for quite some time. For some reason, he's not right now.
Starting point is 00:35:06 He's still like the most popular Democrat. And even though I like I wish people would read the news and they wouldn't think so. But yeah, but he's not active. He's not really not really doing anything. Anyone. He don't want to endorse Joe Biden. Then what? Hillary Clinton?
Starting point is 00:35:19 No. Oh, gosh. They have no one right now. That's why they're doing Grandpa Joe. It's the only thing they have that people remember who's still active. You have the sour look on your face. Yeah, because he's supposed to be the return to normalcy. And I know enough about what happened under the Obama administration.
Starting point is 00:35:33 I was watching it. I was young at the time, but I was like, this is insane. And I never liked, you know, Democrat policies. But I was like, this is egregious, even for a Democrat president. Which part, though? The bombings. Oh, yeah. The various bombings from this peaceful presidentgregious, even for a Democrat president. Which part, though? The bombings. Oh, yeah. The various bombings from this.
Starting point is 00:35:46 Yeah, that's glorious. And Trump picked that up. Yeah. And I was not happy. I was like, see, in 2016, I was happy to not have voted for either of them because Donald Trump picked up the drone strikes and he picked up the commando raids. And there was a commando raid that killed a little girl. And I was complaining about all of that about Obama.
Starting point is 00:36:04 And then Trump did it. I started laughing. I was laughing when Trump won because he gave comeuppance to the Democrats. And then I was laughing when Trump started carrying out the same tired foreign policy and weapons sales. And I'm like, here we go. And then all of a sudden, Trump started firing these people. And then in the past year or so, past a year and a half or so, he's been greatly improving.
Starting point is 00:36:25 Yeah, he's gotten a lot better. I remember when he did the North Korea thing and that meant a lot to me. Seriously. Because I remember hearing stories about why my family fled Korea and how they desperately tried to come to the United States. They came to Hawaii. And I
Starting point is 00:36:42 was just like, wow, I couldn't imagine. My great-grandparents, I never met them. I have no idea what they were thinking. And I was just like, wow, I couldn't imagine. I've never, my great grandparents, I never met them. I have no idea what they were thinking. And this was before the split of the country and all this stuff. It was like early 1900s. And I'm just like, I can't imagine what was happening where they were like, it's time to get out of here and go somewhere better. And they did.
Starting point is 00:36:59 And then the country's fractured in two. And I remember hearing stories about where my my great-grandmother and my great-grandfather were both from and one was north and one was south wow and so i was just like wow i'll never get to visit that place probably unless there's unification like i've gone to germany because i'm also uh german and uh irish yeah and so i've gone to ireland i've gone to germany and i'm like this is really cool it's really cool to like like see like where my family is from can't it can't happen with you know what's now north korea yeah but donald trump crossed in the dmz and i was like this is awesome and the media was like this is terrible i was like what that was so cool because i was just remembering obama sitting outside the
Starting point is 00:37:39 dmc with his uh dmz with his binoculars with his binoculars and i was like this is not what trump is doing this is way better. And they, you know, I don't know if Trump's been successful now, especially now that Kim Jong-un is reportedly in a coma. I don't know either.
Starting point is 00:37:51 Using body doubles. Yeah. But I'm like, I respect that he's trying. You know, now we've got this Middle Eastern peace deal. Anyway, I'm going off on a tangent
Starting point is 00:37:56 because I always fall to foreign policy for a lot of reasons. But the main issue is Trump has dramatically improved. And where I've usually said he's not that bad now, but I would be like, he's bad, but he's not that bad. Now I'm like, he's doing pretty good.
Starting point is 00:38:08 Yeah, there's a lot of things he's doing well upon, doing well with and is, you know, the bombastic nature is kind of toned down. And so I'm like, he's really starting to get into it. You know, I can respect this. And I was mad early on. But anyway, the main point is, you know, coming off this last, you know, little bit here, what is the party itself doing? Because I don't like the Republican Party.
Starting point is 00:38:28 I don't like the Democratic Party either. Donald Trump, I like a little bit. I think he's funny. He's an entertainer. I think he's great. The only thing I liked about watching the RNC last night was President Trump's speech. That was the best part. That was the only thing I was really waiting for.
Starting point is 00:38:43 I didn't care what Rudy Giuliani said. I know. the other thing that i really appreciate wasn't that bad though they brought in ann dorn which i hugely valued i was like that's amazing and beautiful and i appreciated president trump talking about the family yes family family family um how they were like they had sacrificed so much started uh when that speech came i started raining inside the house i noticed that too yeah there's it was everyone in here was it was like you know it's just raining and kind of fog of mist enveloped the room it was very strange and then it cleared up when ann stopped talking but but in all serious touching in all seriousness that story was uh made me angry yeah it made me angry and sad yeah I don't know if you guys listening heard Ann Dorn speak,
Starting point is 00:39:27 but wow, David Dorn seemed like a rad dude. Not a Trump supporter, apparently. Of course not. Doesn't matter. But it's a story about a guy who lost his life in these riots trying to protect his friend. Even at his age, he was a retired police captain, David Dorn. Yeah, he was retired.
Starting point is 00:39:43 Even at his age, he still felt that sense of duty to protect what he cared about and some sick monster thought a tv was was was worth taking his life that's sad man and she told the story about how you know every night if there was like a call to the to the pawn shop his friend it was his friend lee i think right yeah that he'd get up and let her know and this one time he didn't, and when she woke up, he was gone. She got a knock on the door, and she didn't know, you know, where he had gone and where, you know, why isn't David answering the door?
Starting point is 00:40:13 And then she goes to the door, and there it was, you know, the police had come to let her know, and it was brutal, man. And Frank Luntz, who's a famous pollster, tweeted that, he said, everyone around me is crying. Yeah. I'm like, yeah, dude, everybody was crying. Yeah. But, you know, something interesting I find about, like, I don't know if this is universally
Starting point is 00:40:31 true, but the things that make little kids, I've been thinking about, like, what makes men and women cry or not cry. Because, like, guys don't cry. They, like, rarely cry. Yeah. Like, there was a dude in Kenos kenosha whose family business 40 you know his family's family's legacy their business was burned down he was nearly in tears and there are things you know guys cry they do but i was reading something that said women cry i think like four
Starting point is 00:40:55 times a month and men cry like once per month women try wait wait women cry four times a month on average or something like that and men cry like once per month i'm like a deeply flawed woman oh yeah i don't cry at all i don't i don't cry i get mad what's the point in crying you know it makes me cry like watching a movie where a dog gets hurt yeah like and then i'm just like or animals getting hurt you know like i can watch movies where people are blowing up and i'm like yeah get them but like the dog it's like even if the dog's with the bad guy i'm like no even though i know like the bad guys trains that train the dogs yeah no but i was thinking about this and i'm like when i was watching the aaron dorn stuff i was like definitely fighting back tears but i was getting really angry too i was like this should not have happened like there's
Starting point is 00:41:37 no reason i hate the senselessness more than anything and i just pounded the table sorry i hate senselessness i really hate people who die for no reason i hate unnecessary death and pain and to me that was like i hate death embodiment yeah all of it every single every single one well unfortunately death is literally the only thing that you this is a great equalizer man nobody gets away from it so it's like i don't at least you can maybe for a little bit longer but through science you're gonna live forever technology i knew it we'll all live forever i mean maybe at some point but uh i was i was i was reading something about immortality too that said people think immortality is bad only because being old sucks yeah and that if you were young and vibrant forever you'd probably just like go along with it
Starting point is 00:42:18 but i digress the main issue is you know watching the r RNC was powerful. It was powerful. So to get these C-SPAN callers who are like, I watched the DNC and what is it? The guy in a cape dancing. It was like hard cringe. When Joe Biden is announced, he's getting the nomination and they're like, they run in the room behind him with like party poppers. I was like, what is this? So cringe. It seriously looked like a high school, like end of year celebration video.
Starting point is 00:42:43 It hurt. Like made by students. I wished I was not sober. The RNC was incredible. Yeah. So the reason I kind of brought up Ann Dorn was not so much for the emotional side, because I know that people might say that they're kind of using her story to get people on their side.
Starting point is 00:42:59 I thought that the GOP giving her a platform was incredibly impactful. I thought that was really important. And you know the media went after her. For what? They said that Anne's family tried stopping her. Oh, her daughters disagreed. Yeah. They didn't want her to do it.
Starting point is 00:43:12 And it was wrong what she did. And I'm just like, what? I don't blame the family. The family wants to have internal conversation about what was right or wrong is fine. If Anne's daughter is critical i respect her opinion but for the media to weaponize it that's because everything trump does no matter what is wrong it's tiring you know so we we have all this violence and destruction and trump's like i'm gonna send out feds to portland defend the defend the courthouse they're the best feds ever
Starting point is 00:43:43 they're gonna arrest lots of terrorists. And they're like, Trump's sending out secret police. Make it stop. And then Trump's like, well, I never actually did send out feds to all these various cities. And then they're like, the anarchy is Trump's fault. It's happening under his watch. See, they got him coming and going. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:43:58 There's nothing he can do. And I mean, most of us know it at this point. And it's funny when I have people message me on Facebook. They'll post, like, I'll comment. Because, you know, part of you know part of like all these posts i posted the c-span thing trump landslide incoming of course i'm exaggerating i don't know i don't necessarily know it's gonna be a landslide but i was just like being hyperbolic then i posted the letter from these iron range democrats saying you know landslide here it comes yeah and these people take it so seriously and they're like you're nuts too blah blah and i'm just like dude first of all i'm not necessarily i'm just like being silly on facebook like whoo
Starting point is 00:44:30 here comes trump you can't stop him but i think these are signs that trump is gonna win but i don't understand how these people can deny it like when you have the union belt you know the iron range all these small union towns being like whoo go trump and their democrat strongholds for generate for like you know know, for decades. That says something. I think what they've got going for them is that they don't want it to be true. So it doesn't matter if it's true or not. They don't want it to be.
Starting point is 00:44:54 So gosh, darn it. It's not. And they'll argue with it till they're blue in the face. And, you know, this is a good point to bring up because I look at where we are and I say this often, like, are we in the bubble? Are they in the bubble? Are they in the bubble? Are we both in a bubble? I don't think we are because we look at the polls that say Biden's supposed to be winning. Right. And so we're literally coming at it from a Biden's like
Starting point is 00:45:13 on track to win. But I think Trump could win for these reasons. So when you're either moderate or conservative, you're like, hmm, this is interesting. I wonder how it'll play out on the left. They're like, Trump's going to lose no matter what. The economy is terrible. He COVID all everyone who died. And I'm sitting here like you like Trump's not responsible for like people who died from a pandemic. Like pandemics happen. And I really do think that people know that the economy being in the state it's in is not his fault. And if anything, you could blame that on the Democrats more than anything. I'll tell you this, man. This Iron Range thing is huge. It really is.
Starting point is 00:45:47 Because this is saying several things. For one, Trump is right on the economy. And Trump's approval rating on the economy has been above water basically the entire time. Right. So I look at Trump's job approval rating and I'm like, does that matter? I look at his favorability. Does that matter? I tell you this, man.
Starting point is 00:46:02 I met a guy at the airport and he told me he would not invite Trump over for dinner, but he's going to vote for him because that money is good. And that means he gets polled and they say, how do you think, how do you feel about Trump? Oh, he's a low life scumbag. Do you think he's doing a good job? Not really. Would you vote for him? Oh yeah, because the money's good. So he can be doing bad in a lot of ways so long as he's making you money. Yeah. And that's, that's, that's kind of the thing, like I talked about before, like if you could hire a plumber who stank and was foul mouthed but boy could he fix
Starting point is 00:46:28 that toilet versus a guy who just complained about the other plumber all day and didn't fix the toilet and he was clean and proper looking I'm gonna be like dude I like you
Starting point is 00:46:37 man you clean you got that great cologne it smells great but all you do is complain and I hired you to fix a toilet. Yep. Nancy you hear what
Starting point is 00:46:44 Nancy Pelosi is trying to do now. She wants trump's tax returns even if he loses why i don't understand just imagine this donald trump loses and he like gives a concession speech and he's like joe biden ran a heck of a race i appreciate it you know uh i concede god bless america he walks off stage and then nancy pelosi comes running out frantic with her hair all crazy, waving tax returns. It's like, but Trump left. No one cares. He's gone. That's the crazy thing to me because I think we were talking to Ryan Long, the comedian,
Starting point is 00:47:17 and he said it would be really, really funny if Biden won just to see what would happen because all of these networks and all these politicians would have nothing anymore because their entire identity is like hating Trump. If Trump leaves, Nancy Pelosi says she's still going to pull his tax returns. And I'm just like, I don't care about his tax returns now. I'm especially not going to care about him when he loses. The square root of how much I care about it now will be how much I care about it after he's gone.
Starting point is 00:47:42 Are you insane? No, but like he's not going to be in the office like how do you justify that i don't know that is paranoid delusional insanity i tell you what i'm inclined to agree check this out check this out let me let me show you some of this some of this a paranoid delusional insanity cool from elijah shaffer quote we're gonna burn that s down a peaceful protester in dc shouts i love how they're doing that, saying he is part of an insurgency group. He later spread lies that the victims of the Kenosha
Starting point is 00:48:09 shooting were kids. This would be considered criminal inciting a riot in most states. It would, and it's happened before, and they never get charged for it. But I assure you, regular people are watching this kind of stuff. These people are lying outright. So you know what I'm,
Starting point is 00:48:25 you know what I have fun doing right now? Like, I don't know why I do it, but it's the one thing I really like doing is just like posting comments on Facebook. But I post them in very like droll kind of ways. Is that the right word? Where I'm just kind of like, you know that meme of Bugs Bunny shooting
Starting point is 00:48:40 and he's like, his eyes are like half closed and he's like lazily like pointing the gun. That's how I imagine it. That's how Tim comments. I comments i do yeah like i don't go in there like you know what man you're so wrong i go in there and i just post like really bland like half-assed comments so like people do this big thread this guy i know and they're like can you believe what this you know this terrorist kid and kenosha did and then they're all posting this stuff and i was like i was like dang yo if only bl Blake didn't grab that knife. Like they just blow up.
Starting point is 00:49:07 Oh, snap. And I'm like, that's it. That's the fuse. And I'm not saying I'm not trying to like make people lose their minds. But I'm like, there you go. Like you have some contrary information. I know you don't care to like actually deal with that. Yeah, that is a really interesting approach. And I kind of like to do that, too, because I it's considered a Socratic method.
Starting point is 00:49:23 I don't really go that way. But I'm like, hey, have you thought about this like interesting that this happened have you considered this i i i could socratic method that you could this is different from what you do you know often when i'm when i'm actually when it's like if it's someone i don't know i'll say something like you know i think it's really bad this happened and you know i think the kid shouldn't have been out there but but you know you need to understand like when x y and z happens these are like natural consequences and they'll still get mad at you but i'm talking about like like some people i know will be like like my lefty friends or whatever and then i'll just drop in like yeah man if only blake didn't try to grab
Starting point is 00:49:55 that knife you know i don't even know i don't know if he grabbed it or he was trying to put it away like it was in his hand they yelled drop the knife yeah according to a witness and the response from them is like but but the cops lie and i'm like the cops lie i don't i don't know i don't care like a witness a witness said it happened like you can't make up whether they lied or they didn't lie all we know is here's here's what they they said like a witness said the guy said drop the knife well all we know yeah all we know is that the knife was on the floorboard why would i I make any assumptions? But now we're basically getting Unity extremists. But man, we got a lot to go through still. Check this out. This is something that made me laugh a lot.
Starting point is 00:50:32 And I'm giving this to all of you as a gift. I hope you're appreciative of this. I'm ready. It's a tweet from Joe Walsh. You guys know Joe Walsh, right? His Twitter icon is still Walsh2020. Whoa. The dude hasn't changed it yet.
Starting point is 00:50:44 What? That's commitment. But this dude, if you want to see some desperation, you're going to love this. He tweeted, One last time, Joe Biden. I am a conservative working my ass off to help you win. You're a good man, but please, sir, get out of your basement. In all caps, by the way. Get on a plane and go to Kenosha.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Please. Lead. Comfort. Heal. If you don't, Trump could win. That's all. Time for tequila for me. Gotta respect the tequila time.
Starting point is 00:51:09 I love this tweet. You know why? Why? Because it feels like honest. Yeah, I think so. Like, Joe, get out of the basement. I'm gonna go get drunk. Yeah, yes.
Starting point is 00:51:18 I hear you, man. You're losing and your guy is a coward hiding in the basement. So I don't know what else you could expect. No, I really like it because it starts out sane and reasonable one last time joe biden he explains himself i'm a conservative working my butt off to help you win you're a good man but please sir and then he gets a little bit insane and then he's all caps and then he's going to drink get out of the basement it's time to bring up the story of kyle Rittenhouse because we do have a little bit more information but for the most part I want to do kind of like a media critique because we have
Starting point is 00:51:49 this twitter thread from a guy named Mark Joseph Stern and I'm going to debunk it because it's like even though he has pictures of evidence about what happened they just lie so kind of you know looking at what that kid said so we just had that uh we just saw that tweet where this guy in, I don't know if he's in D.C. or whatever. He said he was part of an insurgency group. Yeah, it was D.C. And that he said a white supremacist killed three kids in Kenosha. It's like, first of all, the kid was younger than the three felons who died.
Starting point is 00:52:16 Yeah, when he's thinking of a kid, he's thinking of the guy they were trying to attack. But they don't know anything. They don't read the news. But more importantly, I bet that dude didn't care. He's probably thinking, I'll say it this way because it'll incite, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:52:28 It'll rile people up. Yep. Check this out. Marcus of Stern says, and this guy is a writer for Slate, staff writer. He says, at this moment,
Starting point is 00:52:36 conservative media figures are crafting a narrative that black people attempting to disarm a white vigilante who was one, illegally brandishing an assault weapon, after two,
Starting point is 00:52:44 shooting someone in the head, deserve to get shot. It is racist and it is sickening. Okay, first of all, it was white people who got shot. This is the weirdest thing to me. It's like, the three people who got shot were all white. So why is he trying to say that black people were trying to disarm the kid? The next thing he brings up is the illegal brandishing of an assault weapon. When this first came out, they were saying that Kyle Rittenhouse was 17, so he couldn't legally be carrying the weapon. And then a bunch of actual legal experts were like, actually, there's an exemption for 16 and 17 year olds carrying rifles and shotguns. End of story. Oh, that simple. Will Chamberlain did a thread on it,
Starting point is 00:53:19 looking at the actual statutes and said, yep, doesn't look like he violated any statutes. And it seems like that's why the cops didn't care. Right. They're like, here's a kid. He's carrying a rifle. He's allowed to do it. End of story. Of course, this guy doesn't do any work.
Starting point is 00:53:32 And this is very, very, very typical of the modern mainstream media left. They have no idea what they're talking about. They just make it up. They don't even Google stuff. I know. It's amazing. Have you guys ever seen that website? Let me Google that for you because I would really recommend it. you sent it to me once yeah it's an insult yeah so when
Starting point is 00:53:49 someone's like you know like you know how do i find you know the the gun shop you send them let me google that for you and then it like loads a website where it automatically types it in and then presses google like let me google that for you marty pants seriously he says we saw the usual suspects begin developing this narrative yesterday by framing Kyle Rittenhouse's victims as bloodthirsty assailants rather than rightly frightened civilians trying to stop him from murdering more people with an assault weapon. Now it's their party line, vile.
Starting point is 00:54:15 Let's correct this. There's actually a video earlier in the night where two of the guys, the two guys who died, are threatening the young men who are armed, yelling at them, saying, shoot me, shoot me, and things like that, getting up in their face. And one person actually grabs the vest of one of these, you know, armed young men and pulls him back, clearly trying to retreat from the conflict. So no, they're wrong. He says by this morning, the narrative began firming up.
Starting point is 00:54:40 The men trying to disarm Rittenhouse, who crossed state lines in the assault weapon he possessed illegally, then shot someone in the head, were actually just attacking him. And Rittenhouse had a right to shoot them too. And the New York Times confirms this. They show that Rittenhouse was running away when someone threw a plastic bag of something at him. And then somebody fired a gun into the air. Rittenhouse turned towards the sound of the fire and opened fire, striking one of the men, I believe five times. Yeah, a lot of people don't know this, five times in like the leg, like two in the leg, one in the groin, one in the side, one in the head. He shot him five times. Wow. That's crazy. I didn't know that. But what you need to understand
Starting point is 00:55:18 is if you chase someone and they're trying to flee and then someone fires a gun into the air, they might turn and start shooting in the direction of where the gunshot went off. And that's exactly what happened. He says, here's the new narrative using non-lethal force to disarm a vigilante illegally brandishing an assault weapon. Again, not true. Who just shot someone in the head is the real crime. And that vigilante acted in self-defense when he shot the men trying to disarm him. This is fully delusional. When you consider that they attacked him first and then he fired after someone shooting and they chased after him, he fell, they stomped his head. Yes, he was defending himself. We're not talking about a situation where a crazed maniac was going around killing people. We're talking about a situation
Starting point is 00:56:00 where a young man who is legally, as far as we can tell right now, possessing a firearm. In fact, they haven't charged him with illegal possession. They've only charged him with homicide. We'll see if that sticks. Maybe he will be convicted. I'm just saying. So maybe this guy, at any rate, this guy is wrong.
Starting point is 00:56:14 But maybe Kyle Rittenhouse will end up getting convicted in some capacity. But anyway, it was a legal weapon. He was acting in self-defense. That's just a fact. You can't attack someone and when they defend themselves,
Starting point is 00:56:25 now claim it's a whole new instance where they've become a mass shooter who must be disarmed. Apparently you can. Well, that's what he's doing. Yeah. Yeah, gaslighting. Yep.
Starting point is 00:56:33 He says, now we're here. The psychopaths have constructed their narrative. It's time to promote it. Disarming a vigilante who's illegally brandishing an assault weapon is the real violence. You see how he keeps saying that over and over again?
Starting point is 00:56:44 With no evidence? Because USA Today actually published, it was Milwaukee Journal Sentinel saying, a legal expert said there's an exemption for 17-year-olds. They also keep saying traveled across state lines, ignoring the fact that the kids from Antioch, Illinois, which is about 20 minutes from Kenosha, and it seems that Kenosha is the biggest city. If you lived in Antioch and you were like, I want to go to the city,
Starting point is 00:57:04 it's probably Kenosha. It could be Chicago. Yeah, in Antioch and you were like, I want to go to the city, it's probably Kenosha. It could be Chicago. Yeah, but that's kind of a long way, right? I think it might be comparable. Antioch, no, it's probably 45 minutes. Yeah. 45 minutes to an hour, maybe. But Kenosha is like a 20 minute drive.
Starting point is 00:57:17 So if you want to go to a bigger urban center, the kid probably hangs out there all the time. So crossing state lines, while technically correct, you got to give it context. He did hang out there all the time so crossing state lines while technically correct you got to give it context he did hang out there all the time because as we can see from literal photographs taken earlier in the day he's cleaning off graffiti that's right doing work in the town like he has friends and family and hangs out there a lot you know you know one of the bigger problems is a lot of people pointed out he had to run something like 630 feet when they were chasing after him and he was out of shape yeah a lot of people pointed out he's a little chubby kid and if he had to run something like 630 feet when they were chasing after him. And he was out of shape. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:46 A lot of people pointed out he's a little chubby kid. And if he had actually done better training, he would have easily escaped and no one would have lost their lives. That's too bad. Still not his fault, though. You have no legal obligation to be good at running. Right. You know, especially, you know, he tripped.
Starting point is 00:57:59 So he probably would have been able to get out no problem. I'll tell you what, man. I don't care. You know, it's really funny how they'll say things like in the event of a mass shooter, like hide barricade, you know, only attack when you absolutely have to. When you have the situation here, they ran up and tried taking his gun from him. Did you hear what the so? So this is actually I think I think this also from Andy.
Starting point is 00:58:20 No, he tweeted this that the guy with the Glock who ran up to him apparently told a friend. This is all hearsay, by the way. So I'm not saying it's true. It's just, you know, coming out through various sources. Reportedly, that the guy said his only regret was not killing the kid. I did hear that. So there's a few outlets that have reported this because there was a Facebook post by someone who posted a picture with the guy in the hospital.
Starting point is 00:58:41 And they said, I talked to him. He said his only regret was not killing the kid. Wow. Yeah. And it's true i i was curious about that the guy who got his bicep blown off was holding a glock oh yeah he could have crouched take a name and and and killed kyle yeah he didn't do it i'm i mean uh i'm glad he survived i i you know i i think anyone like i don't want any of this conflict you know what i I mean? I think, look, I'll say that Kyle should not have been out there with a weapon. But first, the rioters shouldn't have been out there destroying everything. So it's like the first people I'm going to criticize are the people who started everything.
Starting point is 00:59:16 And then after we get through all that, I'll say, leave it to law enforcement. The problem? Law enforcement's backing down. Right. So what do you do at that point? I don't know. I don't know. The kid was underage, you know? So he goes on to say, he says, watch the videos. You'll see what actually happened. Men were chasing down a dangerous vigilante who just shot, shot someone in the head because the police refused to stop him themselves. That's not true. They were chasing down. I, you know, you could, you could, you could,
Starting point is 00:59:41 you could frame it as a dangerous vigilante, but the kid was being chased. So actually, here's what happened. According to the Daily Caller, what started the conflict in the first place, the reason why Kyle was running before anyone got shot, is because when these guys were screaming at him, someone tried grabbing his gun. Yeah, so I was reading the breakdown from Shelby Tolcott, I believe her name is. Yeah, they were there. Right. Yeah. Reporter. They were there. Right. Yeah. And she said the initial conflict started when someone tried grabbing
Starting point is 01:00:09 his gun and then he ran and they chase after him. And then someone threw something at him. Someone fired in the air. He heard the gunshot turned and aimed. And the New York Times reported there were 16 other gunshots. You know what the real issue here is? Kyle won. That's it. Yep. Kyle very, very easily could have been dead in a gunfight with other people. He apparently only fired, I think, like seven rounds. If you go, if you, if you, if you go by what they said, 16 other rounds were fired by someone else or more than one person. And we still don't know who fired those. Right. Interesting. Yep. so the real situation i would say is you know what to be fair conflict that's about it yeah should should people should
Starting point is 01:00:52 anybody be engaging in this kind of stuff no should the far left be going out burning things down attacking people bashing old men over the head absolutely not and then from this is born conflict where someone else comes out and says i've had enough of this there you go i wish that circumstances weren't such that kyle felt a need to do this because people are bringing attention to the fact that he was like aspiring to be a policeman and they're holding this against him like tons of young men aren't similarly minded they're not like i want to join the military i want to be a policeman that's a perfectly normal thing i would be a fireman when exactly you're Oh, tomato lady.
Starting point is 01:01:25 Love it. Yeah, we turn tomato again. We keep fixing the camera and it keeps like breaking. I think the camera's broken, to be honest. Yeah, it's possible. Yeah, because we fixed the settings in it, but it's still tomatifying, Lydia. Yeah, it's all good. It's you. It's your fault.
Starting point is 01:01:35 It's true. Because other people didn't turn into tomatoes. Yeah. Anyway, he goes on to say, read conservative media and you'll see a different narrative. Violent black men attacked a good-hearted, if overzealous, young white man who had no choice but to fight back in self-defense. Disarming a potential mass shooter while black, it seems, was the real crime here. Wait, what?
Starting point is 01:01:51 Uh-oh. He had to issue a correction. Check this out. We know at least two of Rittenhouse's victims were white. They were part of a group of black and white protesters trying to stop him from shooting more people. The idea that there's no racial dynamic here just because the black protesters avoided Rittenhouse's bullets is houses bullets is absurd all right oops i got stuff to say about
Starting point is 01:02:08 this all right i'm gonna be tomato lady here i don't even care anymore because okay first of all i don't know if you guys have looked at written houses information but he actually is not white as such he's labeled as being hispanic so that kind of removes their racial he is and i'm not sure maybe his mom is hispanic because his name is very very white sounding i agree yeah um so first of all no second of all uh conservative media had people literally on the ground running around with their cell phones out taking pictures of this so i am conservative i have a bias that way but if i were to judge based on well you can judge based on the guy from the new york times who did this investigative pictorial
Starting point is 01:02:50 thing where he goes through and he gives an accurate representation of what actually happened there as well he said the exact same thing this is not right-wing media this is what happened sorry slate dude the media just lies and and where did he get that it was black dudes i don't understand this. He made it up. Here's what happens. He's sitting in his room with his eyes. The Bugs Bunny meme, okay?
Starting point is 01:03:12 You've seen the meme of Bugs Bunny, and he's like, his arms are on the thing, and he's like, he pulls out the gun really slowly, and his eyes are half closed, and he bangs. That's what it is. They're sitting there. They've done no research. They have no idea what's going on. And then their boss goes, can you write something up and they go huh what man it's like we need you to write something about the shooting kenosha that's yeah there was a shooting in kenosha
Starting point is 01:03:34 yes here's some notes about it wow and then he puts it down and starts writing and then they're like they get it and they're just like just publish it no copy editor no fact checker good to go see back in the day before twitter we had this thing it was called a it was called a fact checker oh what's that here's how it used to work oh a journalist would write a story they would give it to the you know to their editor the editor would go through it for like you know they'd have copy editors for grammatical errors and stuff like that and then the fact checker would call the sources to confirm the reporter was telling the truth yeah now what do we get random dude goes on twitter and spews a bunch of nonsense that he has no idea what happened burps his ideas out onto twitter look at his he's
Starting point is 01:04:14 got fancy little check mark well it's actually a white check mark because i use dark mode but you know what i mean these fancy little check mark people have done no research and that's it yeah you know it's really really funny about this i love this i mentioned this in one of my earlier segments so not to toot my own horn but uh go on my my three channels are getting around 90 million views oh and we have this we have this story about ben shapiro i don't know somewhere i think oh yeah we got a bunch of yeah we got it about ben we're going to talk about Ben Shapiro and how he owns Facebook. But in this story from the New York Times
Starting point is 01:04:48 they mention that Ben gets 56 million interactions per month or something. That's pretty impressive. And it's more than ABC, CBS, NBC, The Washington Post, and New York Times and NPR combined. Huh. And I'm like, wow. That's a lot. What does that say that I'm getting
Starting point is 01:05:03 90 million views on all my content then? Yeah. Is it like double all of those things combined or something?'m like wow that's a lot what does that say that i'm getting 90 million views on all my content then is it like double all of those things combined or something sounds like it so the interesting thing about it though and the reason i bring it up again it's not really it's not to brag but i do i do really appreciate everybody who listens and hangs out because it does mean a lot to me but uh wikipedia they only include things if it's written by some guy at a company. Blue check. Isn't that amazing that this blue check guy can write a fake news op ed and they'll consider it reliable and put it in.
Starting point is 01:05:34 But then if I say something to 90 million people, they say, well, that's not relevant. We can't include that Wikipedia. Welcome to the future. They have they're writing mumbo jumbo nonsense from people who can't use Google and I'm not considered reliable. That's fine. I don't, I don't care if they consider me reliable.
Starting point is 01:05:50 That's fine. I don't care. You just want to highlight that discrepancy. I just want to highlight the changing landscape of media and Wikipedia is not necessarily a legacy institution.
Starting point is 01:05:59 I mean, it kind of is, but in the sense that it's digital, it's online, right? Yeah. But their whole process is based upon if you have the funding to run a blog, then we'll determine if you're reliable or not.
Starting point is 01:06:10 That makes no sense. So here I am, and Ben Shapiro as well, substantially more influential than all of these outlets. And Wikipedia chooses to grab stuff from Slate where this guy just makes up random garbage. It's not real. Well, before we continue, I would like to say that I'm kind of grateful to this guy from Slate, where this guy just makes up random garbage. It's not real. Well, before we continue, I would like to say that I'm kind of grateful to this guy from Slate because you can track the fundamental error that he makes in his first tweet.
Starting point is 01:06:33 You can track it all the way down through the rest of his tweets. And you're like, this is where it's wrong. You can trace it. And that's helpful because it's like, you don't always see that. Sometimes you'll start at the top of an article and then make a false assumption and you'll get to the end and you're like holy cow i didn't know this but if you if you don't go back and you're like oh gosh that was wrong you won't ever figure it out so reading through someone's tweets is like hey you know what i can see the problem tracking all the way down and that's why his conclusion is wrong i make mistakes sometimes
Starting point is 01:06:58 i tweeted this article that said that like a certain number of dead voters had their votes disqualified yeah and then i jumped the gun because I had read it from a different source and I didn't finish. I read it from a different source, chased it to the principal source, and then said, OK, it's a legit source. And then I tweeted, then who's filling these out? Then I went back and read it and went, I'm an idiot. It was the people who filled them out, then died, then got their votes disqualified. So I issued a correction.
Starting point is 01:07:23 I said I made a mistake on this one, you know, and I'm willing to delete or correct. Typically what I'll do is I'll correct because I want to make sure that if anyone clicks the tweet, they see the correction. Otherwise, if you delete it, people still saw it. It's a tough call.
Starting point is 01:07:36 It really is. But these people will put up fake news and never bother checking and they don't care. And you know what's worse is they get, like, there was one instance where some i did a video and someone said i was wrong they had a smaller youtube channel and i said well i
Starting point is 01:07:50 don't know if i'm wrong because i hear what you're saying so i'll put a link to your video so people can hear what you're saying that's good yeah because i'm like compromise it's it's it's more just so uh it's more like some of these things are hard to to down. So I'm willing to put, you know, a contrarian or a counter point if someone thinks, you know. It depends. If I think it's like a bad faith attempt, then I just like ignore it. But for the most part, someone says, you missed this. I'll be like, oh, especially on gun stuff. People say it all the time.
Starting point is 01:08:18 Like, Tim, you're wrong about this. I'm like, there you go. I was wrong about that. I'm no expert. The big issue, I think, with trusting media is whether or not someone's willing to go, oh, I didn't realize I was wrong about that versus someone saying, I don't care. Isn't it so much more interesting to have a conversation with someone who will pause when you correct them and somebody who's like, you know what?
Starting point is 01:08:37 I didn't think about that. I got to think about that and I'll get back to you. That's so much more interesting than someone who just runs you over and is like constantly, I'm right. You're wrong. I'm right. I'm right. I can't be wrong. The problem with leftist media is that like when it comes to podcasts and stuff, they'll say a fact or I'll put it this way. If let's say like this happened several times to Joe Rogan, someone will say something in a show and Joe will go, is that true? I haven't heard that before. And the guy will be like oh yeah x y and z and then
Starting point is 01:09:05 the media will say joe rogan allows people to say fringe unhinged whatever craziness unchallenged and it's like is joe supposed to be like i've never heard that before therefore you're wrong that's that's horrible this makes sense yeah but that's exactly what the media does take something new that no one's ever told them before and And they're like, well, I have a preconceived notion and this doesn't quite fit with it. Therefore, that's wrong. There can be no other solution. And they're posting fake news all the time. And they're never sorry.
Starting point is 01:09:34 They don't. Yeah, I know. And their corrections are at the bottom of the article. I'm, you know what I'm thinking? I'm like four, four to eight years. They're going to be gone. I think so too. So I think, I think these big legacy brands are all dying. I think it's a fact that they're all dying, but we still see the New York Times
Starting point is 01:09:47 increase their digital subscriptions and things like that. But what I think is happening is, you put it this way, let's say 20 years ago, there were 50 million newspaper subscribers. As the internet emerged, people just started choosing which one they wanted to subscribe to. 50 million becomes 30 million because many get their news for free. But of that remaining pool, they're starting to increasingly subscribe to only the New York Times. From that lens, the New York Times is skyrocketing in growth. And everyone's like, wow, they're doing so well. While every other news outlet is crumbling around, you know, around them, crumbling down around them. And so eventually, it will be that the only news subscribers left are subscribed to the New York
Starting point is 01:10:31 Times, there's 5 million, and they're cheering at the top of the mountain. And then it'll slowly crumble from there. Yeah, people will leave. And eventually, there will be nothing left. Well, I think what we're seeing right now, what we're seeing with the media is kind of what we're seeing with the Democrats, I feel like they're losing control. They're becoming completely irrelevant and they know it and it hurts. And it's a little bit like dying from a horrible neurodegenerative disease because you can feel that something's wrong and you're losing control. And the only way that you can maintain your own little – because I have actually seen this with sick people who are starting to lose control and of their bowels they're starting to lose control of all sorts of things and they take control of other things they control people and then they're like
Starting point is 01:11:15 i i have no control in any any other part of my life therefore i'm going to hyper focus on the things that i can control and i see that with the slate guy just lying his way through a tweet thread because he they know they're irrelevant and they're gonna throw you know spaghetti at the wall until it sticks because they're going out and they know i think a lot of it too is you know you know the trope about the bully who like picks on kids at school and the kid like goes to his house and it turns out his dad's beating him yeah that's what it is these journalists like go home to their mom's house and they're like their life sucks or they're underpaid and they're like my life sucks.
Starting point is 01:11:49 Like I'm imagining this dude from Slate who wrote this tweet thread. He like goes down to the bodega and he's like, can I get the roast beef with American and a Kaiser bun? And the guy's like, OK, OK. And he walks over and then he hands him like a hero roll with like turkey. And he goes, but I wanted roast beef. You get turkey. OK, but I wanted roast beef. You get turkey. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 01:12:06 But I ordered roast beef. You get turkey or nothing. Okay. And then he leaves and he's like all miserable. Oh, pathetic. And then he goes on Twitter. I hate everyone. Donald Trump is such a loser.
Starting point is 01:12:17 Just because the bodega guy was mean, man. Come on. Yeah. Yeah. It's things like that. Like, you know, they live in New York. Their landlords mean. Like, think about like why they're all socialists.
Starting point is 01:12:25 The landlord knocks on the door on the 4th and he's like, Yo, Jimmy, rent's due. What's going on? $2,800. And then he walks out and he's like, Come on, man. I work at Huffington Post. They don't pay me that much money, man.
Starting point is 01:12:35 I'm trying as hard as I can. Hey, sell your TV or get out. And then he goes and he comes back and he's all like, Stupid landlords. They're so dumb. They didn't even do anything anyway. Landlord is not a job. Where's that Karl Marx book? And then he goes all like, stupid landlords. They're so dumb. They didn't even do anything anyway. Landlord is not a job. Where's that Karl Marx book?
Starting point is 01:12:47 And then he goes on Twitter, Donald Trump is a fascist. It's the only thing in their life they have control over. I think you're right. Which brings me to the next little bit of fun we have for tonight. Oh, boy. My friends, we are going on a wild ride. I imagine some of you may be fans of, I don't know, James Bond, right? James Bond movies, spy thrillers.
Starting point is 01:13:09 You know what movies I like? The Fast and the Furious movies. Yeah. Hobbs and Shaw. Yeah. Senseless explosions and for some reason car thieves are important and the government wants them to stop terrorism. And car chases and whatnot.
Starting point is 01:13:22 Yeah. Yeah. I have no idea why the government came to a car thief from brooklyn or whatever or miami and asked him to like stop a terrorist lady with a helicopter and a submarine but hey man sometimes these stores are just fun but what happens when there's no movie theaters because they're shut down you get this cassandra of troy now who is this lady? I don't know. But she wrote, The more I write about this, the more it becomes plain. If Biden loses, 2020 will be the last remotely free and fair election we have for decades.
Starting point is 01:13:56 And certainly my lifetime. We are in the middle of an autocratic attempt. And it looks so much like Hungary's. The courts are being packed with loyalists. Most state legislatures and swing states are gerrymandered beyond belief. The executive branch is gaining unitary power. The Department of Justice is blatantly, selectively applying the law to favor the autocrat. IGs are being destroyed. Oh, there's more.
Starting point is 01:14:17 I'm going to read it. How many? Oh, my Atlanta. Ten. Ten of these. Okay. Anyway, to drop the funny act at the point. This has got 26 000
Starting point is 01:14:27 retweets but why because people need james bond to be real they're really bored they need trump to walk in the room holding a cat stroking it and joe biden to like swing down from like a cable and go well chap time to take you out and then you know donald trump is like get him kitty and the cat's made of gold and the cat turns into a robot. They need something exciting because life is boring. Yeah. So they write unhinged,
Starting point is 01:14:52 paranoid, delusional trash like this. Let's read on. Oh, yeah. She says, AGs are being replaced. Congress is no longer a check on corruption
Starting point is 01:15:01 as the Senate has been captured by Trump loyalists. Ruth Bader Ginsburg is in bad shape. Ditto Breyer. Hybrid regimes, competitive authoritarianism are remarkably stable. This is why 2020 is for all the marbles. This is why I have no use for people who whinge about Biden Harris not being far enough left for their tastes. They are under the mistaken belief that if Biden loses, they will have another chance to elect people that are far enough left for their tastes. They are under the mistaken belief that if Biden loses, they will have another chance to elect people that are far enough left for their liking. The truth is, and here we go, if Biden and Harris lose, there isn't going to be an opportunity to elect someone like they like in their lifetime, not without secession of blue states. That's the
Starting point is 01:15:42 only plausible scenario I can come up with after the autocratic breakthrough. The people who study autocracy are all singing the same tune. American democracy is not strong enough to survive another four years. It's four years, dude. Come on. The TV shows last longer than that. The guardrails are already almost completely down. This is entirely consistent with how others have fallen in the post-Cold War period. Trump's intentions are clear. So are the GOP's. While Republicans are fear-mongering the hell out of this election,
Starting point is 01:16:13 Democrats refuse to call what is happening what it is for fear of sounding alarmist. Maybe this helps their chances of election. But it leaves the vast majority of the American public in the dark as to how incredibly dangerous this moment is, especially with QAnon, a group that wants enemies thrown in concentration camps, inexorably capturing the Republican Party, even as it becomes autocratic. Beware, be warned, or don't. Because once this election comes and goes, if Donald J. Trump is still president on January 21st, 2021, we are effed. Democracy in America is not coming back.
Starting point is 01:16:52 Cue the crazy music and the explosions. And you got yourself a kind of thriller, man. This is great. Thrilling. I love it. She finishes with, in most states, your vote no longer matters. We are rapidly approaching it at a federal level you know that you know long you are no longer living in a democracy because the elections in which you
Starting point is 01:17:09 are participating no longer can yield political change and um i don't know where's the you know those boxes where they pull the lever like the wiley coyote while you like while e coyote would use and like it would blow up yep deton. The detonation box. Cue that. As soon as she finishes, like. Oh, yeah. I'm thinking she took an entire bottle of painkillers after this. Dude, I would. Holy cow. I got a really good idea. It would be fun to like make a movie trailer with this.
Starting point is 01:17:33 Yes. Just read this and like, you know, you know how they do the movie trailers where the guy sounds like he's been smoking for 40 years. The more I write about this, the more it becomes plain. If Biden loses, 2020 will be the last remotely free and fair election we have had for decades. All right, Alex Jones. I know I was thinking that like I should probably read this in Alex Jones voice. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:53 Except even Jones isn't that. They're the same people. No, no, no, no, no. Alex Jones isn't. I mean, he's screaming about other other people, but he's not like talking about Trump being a dictator. Oh, my gosh the best the best part about all of this is that this this this world view they've crafted is they're building a tower somebody imagine it right it's like uh you know rachel maddow goes on tv and she's like you know
Starting point is 01:18:17 donald trump is a russian when that falls apart what do they do with that mound of trash they've built for three years listen if you built a nice, you'd love and you'd respect that house. And you'd say, I like this building. Now, if you built a big pile of trash to stand on, you might not like it like a house. But you're like, hey, man, I built this pile of trash. This is my garbage. It's my garbage. That's right.
Starting point is 01:18:42 Don't touch my garbage. That possum meme. Don't touch my garbage my garbage that's right don't touch my garbage like that that that possum meme don't touch my garbage you know as much as i'm not really all that interested in the garbage i can understand why someone you know spending three years piling up garbage would be like i know it's garbage but i did put a lot into this it's exactly like a sunken cost fallacy they put all their time into this and gosh darn it, it is the best garbage in the world. What do we do now? So here's what ends up happening.
Starting point is 01:19:08 I've built, you know, many of us, those of you watching, we've all built nice little houses of like a coherent thought. Donald Trump has his issues
Starting point is 01:19:15 but for the most part, you know, he's okay and he's doing a lot of things that have been traditional in terms of like political parties. Some people have compared him
Starting point is 01:19:22 to like Bill Clinton in the good way, not the bad way. Like, you know, just general populist policy and stuff. Although I will say, I think Trump is very, very different from Bill Clinton. But some people have said like, in terms of where he sits on the political spectrum,
Starting point is 01:19:36 it's relatively similar. And the things he says, you know, are very inviting to regular people. So we've all built these kind of little huts of coherent thought, but the left is sitting on a big pile of stinky garbage. They refuse to let go because they've put too much into it, and they keep inviting more people to the stinky garbage. And they're warning, like, so is what happens. You're walking down the street, and there's a fork in the road, and there's a
Starting point is 01:19:56 bunch of nice little looking huts, but there's that big old pile of garbage, and there's someone standing at the fork telling you, go to the garbage pile. This woman clearly does. And then she's staring at like old faded cans of like Pepsi from the 70s. And she's reading the ingredients and screaming, did you know what's in this? And then like, actually, I'll do a better example. With this pile of garbage, you'll have like someone find an old, you know, I don't know, a piece of like a building and there's asbestos on it. And so they start screaming about the asbestos, but nobody's using it anymore, right? It's gone.
Starting point is 01:20:34 It's been removed. You know, there's a lot of problems with it. These people who have built their garbage pile have bad information, things that make no sense. And the narrative of Russia and all this conspiracy stuff about Trump is just not true. How insane do you have to be to believe that nationally, how many political offices are there in this country? Like 5,000 or 7,000? Yeah, many, many, many. That they're all being secretly taken over and that Trump controls them all. This requires a lot of faith.
Starting point is 01:20:58 Yeah. It's nuts. Even as it goes when it comes to the Democrats and mail-in voting, I don't think they're all sitting there like a cabal. But I'll tell you this. I think it's really funny that she brought up QAnon. Because Q people, not all of them, I think a lot of people who follow Q don't actually read what it's all about. And so there's a lot of people who have a general view of what it means.
Starting point is 01:21:19 Like, you know, Epstein and stuff like that. Which, like, we know the Epstein stuff is like mostly true because victims have come come forward and there's, you know, we'll see what happens with that Maxwell lady. But like Bill Clinton has been flight logs, not to the island, but there's like this weird stuff. There's weird stuff around that, right? So it's like, okay, but some of these people go nuts. Like they take conspiracies go way too far. But it's funny that she brings up Q because she's like the other side of that. You know, Trump, Trump and on or whatever. Or see Clinton and on. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:21:50 Whatever. TDS lady. Yeah. Well, do you think she realizes that she sounds exactly as deranged? No. Or more so? No. The reason why she brings up Q is because when she looks across the aisle, that's what
Starting point is 01:22:01 she sees. Yeah. Like she's on the same level. She's the inversion of it. Yeah. Got it. so but think about it if the q people think there's like a government cabal conspiracy and like trafficking all this stuff and she's claiming that trump is an autocrat who's like stacking the courts and like or i work for russia it's just as insane yep i think i think hillary clinton and and her and her you know, cronyists like the people around
Starting point is 01:22:26 her. They're just crooks. I think that they've probably been involved in really bad stuff. I think it's questionable what Bill Clinton was doing with Epstein. And I think there may be something there we'll look into. But I don't think there's like a grand international Illuminati cabal like, you know, snatching up kids or anything like that. I mean, you know, but at least it's based in reality, I suppose.
Starting point is 01:22:42 That would be too easy, too simple, too interesting, too pat. that makes me think it's not real well i think i think there's something with epstein and clinton for sure for sure and there's and prince andrew but i think a lot of people probably take that and then immediately assume like extreme scenarios like everything else i'll go there look i think i think you know we know that politicians are creepy weirdos who do drugs and probably do illegal things like all the time for sure. But to go as insane as this lady, when it's like, listen, I think Hillary Clinton was bad for a lot of reasons. I think she was very crooked. And I think Joe Biden is crooked. I think Donald Trump has some questionable things and criticize him for but for the most part, it's in the same
Starting point is 01:23:20 realm of like politics in this country. And I think Trump does love this country does love this country. And I think he is a populist, though he he is himself very elite i don't think he's all that bad and i think they're extreme in their exaggerations of who he is and i think a lot of people are extreme in their exaggerations of who hillary clinton is yep hillary clinton is a crooked cronyist who played dirty with cash at her foundation and a bunch of other horrifying things and that's corruption at the highest level yep and that's i'm like yeah that's corruption at the highest level. Yep. And that's, I'm like, yeah. That's a thing. What else is new?
Starting point is 01:23:47 Yeah, unfortunately. I don't think she's like meeting in the basements with like giant owl statues and like praying to like pentagrams or anything like that. Again, way too interesting. Yeah, right. Reality is very boring.
Starting point is 01:23:57 Super often disappointing. I mean, look, you know, that's why I was kind of saying like what this lady is saying with this Trump conspiracy. You'd think after all these years they'd let go. It's just not real. Trump is not a secret agent.
Starting point is 01:24:11 Trump is not like Kaiser. What's what's the what was the guy's name? What's that? What was the World War? Kaiser Wilhelm? Not Wilhelm. I don't know. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:24:22 I'm not thinking of Kaiser Wilhelm. I'm thinking of that autocratic German dude. I can't remember his name. It's on the tip of my tongue. A little more context. I'm sorry. He's one of the guys who said it is better that ten innocent people suffer than one guilty person escape. What was his name?
Starting point is 01:24:37 I don't know. Everyone's going to know his name now in a second. That was Blackstone. No, no, no. Blackstone was the inverse. He said it's better that 10 innocent uh 10 guilt uh 10 guilty people escape than one innocent suffer innocent oh snap yeah so this this other guy i can't remember his name not not people are saying kaiser so no no no no um
Starting point is 01:24:57 maybe i'm thinking maybe it wasn't the german guy bismarck bismarck there you go who is he am i mixing his up him up with somebody else i think i am anyway anyway the point is on bismarck. Bismarck. There you go. Who is he? Am I mixing him up with somebody else? I think I am. Anyway, the point is. Otto von Bismarck. I will look it up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Where was he?
Starting point is 01:25:11 Because he was the authoritarian guy. Yeah, he was a decisive figure in European history. He retained control over Prussia. Prussia. There we go. See, I have no idea what I'm talking about. But I had a general idea. I read something on the internet once.
Starting point is 01:25:24 Yes. No, but here's the thing. This is why I'm not going to write an article about bismarck i'm a fact check at first you know what i mean yeah absolutely and and i do this whenever i say something i'm not sure i'll tell people make sure you fact check because i heard this i don't know if it's true yeah but it's you know it's interesting nonetheless a lot of people just write garbage but like they think donald trump is you know like having secret meetings in bunkers about like with like pulling out maps. And then like as soon as Trump walks downstairs, he pulls off like a fake flap of skin and there's a mustache. And then he starts being like they think Donald Trump is secretly a dictator trying to take over the world. They've watched too many movies. Yes. Donald Trump is like wearing his
Starting point is 01:25:58 personality on his sleeve. Like I can't accept that. He is a boisterous egotistical tv personality reality uh reality tv real estate mogul who he loves america he does international trade deals and he thought he could do better than everybody else and he knows people and he won and he made the economy work really really well but he didn't really understand how government works because he's not a politician yep so he did some things wrong he hired some bad people and i think he's starting to figure out and do a better job he's a smart guy i think it's i think it's crazy when they call him stupid you got to be you got to be you got to be arrogant beyond all recognition to assume someone like donald trump is stupid that is insanely wishful thinking to think that donald trump is stupid impulsive
Starting point is 01:26:43 maybe arrogant sure but the guy like i think it's hilarious when they say things like his unsuccessful business and whenever i hear my friends say something like that i'm like which one and they're like the one he declared bankruptcy on i'm like okay first of all which one second of all he had like 500 plus businesses and declared bankruptcy like a handful of times and bankruptcy doesn't even mean you failed. It's like debt protection. So like which one? They don't even know, do they?
Starting point is 01:27:12 I once had a bottle of Trump water and a Trump steak. And they were complaining in the media at that time that the companies were defunct. And I'm like, Trump's companies like Trump Magazine and Trump Water, they service his properties. So they were saying like all these things failed. And I'm like, no, he just sells them. He like it's a company. He makes it. Then he sells it to his own company.
Starting point is 01:27:30 Right. But they're too obsessed with their like movie reality world. And I have to wonder there are some people on Twitter who are unhinged. And normally I say that, you know, kind of in an exaggerated tone. No. Some of these people are literally mentally ill. Not kidding. I'm not going to name these specific individuals because I don't want to, you know, I don't want to send people over to these mentally ill profiles.
Starting point is 01:27:59 But there are some Twitter people with hundreds of thousands of followers who are quite literally mentally ill. To be fair, there are a lot of people on Twitter. And statistically speaking, some of them are likely to be mentally ill and frankly twitter kind of caters to the obsessive compulsive tendencies and makes people stirred up into a frenzy neurodivergent yeah i remember like someone recently asked me like what does that mean what is neurodivergent and i'm like it is the tumblr way of saying you you are mentally ill yes neurodivergent it really just means your brain goes in two different directions or it goes in the wrong direction yep all of the wrong there there are some people who've tweeted like really really crazy things saying things like steve bannon is going to be hanged for treason or
Starting point is 01:28:41 something no joke interesting yeah i'm not gonna name these people. Again, too many movies. I'm sure everybody knows who I'm talking about right now. But they're admittedly mentally ill. What's crazy is Twitter verifies them. And listen, you've got to understand, is that if I come to you and say, do you want to go to the park? And you go, why?
Starting point is 01:29:00 What's happening at the park? I don't know. I don't know. Someone like a dog was there. You'll be like, dogs are cool, but that sounds kind of boring. Yeah. What if I walked in and said, dude, we got to happening at the park i don't know like i don't know someone like a dog was there you'll be like dogs are cool but that sounds kind of boring yeah what if i walked in and said dude we gotta go to the park why i there's like clowns and like a giraffe came in and then like some dude was juggling knives and those like flamethrowers like whoa whoa whoa what yeah flamethrowers dude come on you'd be like okay okay okay let's go to the park right then you go
Starting point is 01:29:20 there's nothing there so what's happening is these people on Twitter, some people will be like, Donald Trump today said he wants to build houses in low-income areas or whatever. And then you're like, uh-huh. Okay. I don't know. Whatever. Is that news? Nobody clicks it. So what do they have to do? uh donald trump who was uh hitler wants to build uh homes to force impoverished people into
Starting point is 01:29:53 internment oh oh snap and then people are like whoa and they click it and they go to the article and it's like the housing and development project for the less fortunate second but you already gave them your click that's the that's the framing thing they do yeah and then women like this the cassandra lady who's like donald trump is is an autocrat trying to take over and we'll never have an election again it's like whoa lady calm down i i would i would make a joke about taking some kind of medication but this is a show with a lot of people and i might get in trouble for doing so but in a in a normal uh private setting i'd make a ton of jokes about medication. I probably already made too many jokes. Yeah. Sounds like she's about to go over the edge. Poor lady. Here's the funniest thing about it. Check out the story from The Daily
Starting point is 01:30:32 Caller. Judge orders in Iowa County to invalidate 50,000 absentee ballot requests. Oh, huh. How about that? It's just read this. And I'm like, it's the exact opposite of everything they're claiming about Trump. I thought this was all without evidence, Timothy. Why are they invalidating 50,000 absentee ballot requests? Let's find out. Lynn County Auditor Joel Miller issued 140,000 absentee ballots in July that were already pre-filled with voters' personal information, such as their date of birth and, most importantly, voter identification numbers. According to the AP, Miller said he wanted to make it easy for voters to vote absentee during the pandemic, per the same report. However, Judge Ian Thornhill ruled that Miller's mailing of the ballots violated a clear directive
Starting point is 01:31:16 from Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate, who said absentee ballots forms must be blank when sent to voters, according to the AP. Thornhill has ordered Miller to notify voters who received pre-filled out ballot. Their ballot cannot be processed. Instead, they can either vote in person on Election Day or request new absentee ballots. Miller has agreed to send out the new blank forms. So it's actually not what we thought it was, but it's still kind of fraud. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:38 The initial fraud, it seemed like, or, you know, impropriety was that people were sending in their requests and getting you know getting nuked right as it turns out somebody was trying to send out pre-filled forms to people so that seems shady does it seem shady to you because it seems like if he was doing that in good faith i understand wanting to make voting as easy as possible no way you don't think he was acting in good faith i don't okay because what so listen sitting right in front of me i love pointing to this thing it's still there is a is a is a mail-in ballot i know what to do not an application literal ballot that came to my house for someone who does not live here what if
Starting point is 01:32:15 they filled out that person's personal information including voter id number we have all their information and what would happen if some hokey old dumb lady you know she goes to her mailbox she's like what's this well for who i can't read it and she opens it wrongly and then she's looking through it and she's like who's jimmy what's this social security number and bank account information let me just punch this into amazon and i'm gonna order some books i'm kidding but uh if so if they send out all that pre-filled information that's true that's that's a big breach there's a lot of people probably get mail and just tear it all open without looking at it you know they're like going through built they got a stack and they're stripping things open especially if it's like a married couple and they're like the mail
Starting point is 01:32:56 is just to them the kids are moved out yeah they're gonna get someone's mail they're gonna open and be like john smith voter id number whoa what what is this now they're going to have their private information yep so presumably you know we get this ballot sent here because this person used to live here that would be the same thing that would happen to them but they would get access to other information they'd have their name and their voter id number i don't know what else would be included in it party affiliation maybe or something i don't know so well that's dirty so so here's why i bring this one up because they like to play this game where they're accusing donald trump of being
Starting point is 01:33:30 the fraudster who's trying to take over the world or whatever and the problems are coming from their demands it's it's been this way the entire time you know donald trump has made his mistakes in fighting him but he's won i think about like russiagate really crazy. The Obamagate stuff, the Russiagate stuff. So basically, they were accusing Trump of working for the Russians. They wouldn't stop. And then Trump made the mistake of saying, can you make it go away? And then firing Comey.
Starting point is 01:33:55 Can you blame him for wanting it to go away? And he's allowed to fire Comey. And then they went nuts. And they were like, screeching. And they won't stop. But you know what? Based on what we were talking about earlier, you know what I think it is? Our sphere of influence on the internet is growing and the establishment sphere of influence is shrinking.
Starting point is 01:34:16 And they're crying and panicking about it and there's nothing they can do. But I tell you, as they drown, they will violently thrash about. I'm seeing it. And they got, you know, Kitty's got claws, man. Yeah. they can do but i tell you as they drown they will violently thrash about i'm saying it and they got you know kitty's got claws man yeah so if you i'll tell you this when you see someone drowning don't you have to be very careful about how you approach them because they will pull you down too yep what do you what is i'm not an expert but you go around behind them yeah i think you come up behind them and grab them yeah and then swim backwards but if you go up to them and they grab
Starting point is 01:34:41 you they'll just pull you down and you both drown because they're freaking out that's what the mainstream media is doing right now and that's why all these personalities on twitter going like trump's a dictator and they go home and they're shaking as they pour wine and they're like so much wine i'm imagining like when i when i do that wine shaking i'm imagining it's alissa milano she's like orange man he's orange and the orange thing is a it's a real no you're she actually. I know. She actually said it. I know. He's not sorry that he's orange or whatever. He's not sorry that he's orange.
Starting point is 01:35:11 The funniest thing. Sorry, Alyssa. She tweeted out this big, long, unhinged thread where she's like, Joe Rogan has three times the viewers that I do. And I'm like. Oh, honey. Do you mean like three orders of magnitude? Yes.
Starting point is 01:35:22 That's what she meant. Three times. No. I think we have three she meant. Three times. No. I think we have three times listeners. She does. No, we have more than that. Oh, my goodness. We have way more than that.
Starting point is 01:35:30 Dude, she doesn't even chart. She's not even on any charts. She probably gets like 100 downloads. I'm not even kidding. Like, I don't think. Well, no, that's not fair. She does have a few thousand reviews. So, you know, maybe she's getting, I don't know, a few thousand maybe.
Starting point is 01:35:45 But anyway, one of her tweets was like in all all caps he's orange and it's part of his strategy to be orange and they don't care and i'm like what i don't care it's part of the brand it's the orange come on he's not like he okay you've seen how they try to make him look more orange right oh yeah it's like there was one that was really funny where he was literally glowing and i'm like dude okay you guys definitely overdid this because the dude's not radioactive was that the one where he was walking towards the plane and his hair was blowing back no but that one was bad like what they shopped it and it looked like yeah they made him look like a clown yeah so weird they like desaturated around him yeah no there was it was one where it was like i think it was CNN or something and he was
Starting point is 01:36:27 literally glowing because they upped the saturation too much. I got to find it now. And I'm just like, like, I'm pretty sure Donald Trump's skin isn't radioactive because like I don't know. I don't know. I don't know what generates an orange glow, but I'm assuming it's some kind of quantum function pertaining to radioactivity. No one should be glowing. No. But that's that's that's the media, man. but i'm assuming it's some kind of quantum function pertaining to radioactivity no one
Starting point is 01:36:45 should be glowing no but that's that's that's the media man they're they it's it's funny when you look at like uh cnn's personalities like uh oliver darcy and um he's had some brian's delta oh man what did he tweet what did darcy tweet today that like the right-wing media and like kyle rittenhouse is a proof of radicalization. And I'm like, but three months of mass writing and 30 people dead. That's not radicalization. Yeah, that wouldn't radicalize anyone. But think about it.
Starting point is 01:37:13 It's like three months, nonstop riots, 30 people dead, crickets. One guy shows up after three months, two people die, and they're screaming at the top of their lungs. They're on fire. Yeah. Yeah. Well, my favorite was from Brian Stelter because he was railing about how much I think it was Tucker Carlson makes. So you want to know what I did? I did a little Google search.
Starting point is 01:37:38 How much does Brian Stelter make? You know how much Brian Stelter makes? I do. Tell me. Exactly how much he was accusing Tucker Carlson making. No way. Yeah. Brian Stelter, you know how much Brian Stelter makes I do tell me exactly how much he was accusing uh no way yeah Brian Stelter how much is that so he was accusing Tucker Carlson I think it was Tucker Carlson he was saying he makes 10 million dollars a year I was like okay that seems low first of all let's see how much uh Brian Stelter makes so Brian Stelter makes 10 million dollars a year
Starting point is 01:38:02 I don't buy that I don't believe it I I don't believe it. I looked it up. No way. Brian Stelter on CNN's lowest rated show versus the highest rated cable TV news show in history. Let me see. It's possible. I'll tell you what. Tucker Carlson signed a contract and he probably got a lower number
Starting point is 01:38:18 because it was a new show. Yeah. I'll tell you this. When Tucker renegotiates, he's going to be the highest paid man in television. Here's an article from CNN. as tucker carlson justifies violence fox news is paying him 10 million dollars a year wow yeah but is brian stelter really getting 10 million a year i don't buy it man i found it google said it it's on the internet it's true maybe maybe i mean but you know
Starting point is 01:38:41 cnn's been downsizing yeah that's a lot of money for a Sunday morning show on the news. Yeah, his show is about the news. Yeah. And it's funny because he only ever has on, like, people in his bubble who say the exact same things to each other. It's like literally listening to echoes. It's like listening to Pokemon. Yeah. So it's like if you took, like, a bunch of Pokemon and all they do is sit in a room and saying their names over and over again.
Starting point is 01:39:03 Like, there's no meaningful conversation i guess if you're a pokemon and you like hearing someone say pikachu 7 000 times that sounds like fun but it's really funny when you compare like the the the style of a lot of these shows on like msnbc or cnn versus any podcast and i mean even small podcasts where they'll have like i don't care you could take a random two random people and have them talk random off the street you know it's a good idea for men of the street take a random guy and another random guy and then have them talk about politics yeah that would be way more interesting and informative than anything those people are doing on sunday morning you know cnn show true they're like did did you see that Donald Trump is a fascist?
Starting point is 01:39:47 I did. And the right-wing media is lying. I know, the right-wing media. Did you see Fox News, what they said? Fox News did say things. The dude, Brian Stelter, wrote a book about Fox News. Wow. You know what I think?
Starting point is 01:40:01 That's his world. I think Brian Stelter wishes he worked for Fox News. It makes him really sad. It reminds me of that episode of The Simpsons where Homer tries to join the club, but they call it the No Homers Club. Oh, no. And then he's like, but you let in the other Homer. And they're like, it's the No Homers.
Starting point is 01:40:17 We're allowed to have one. So it's like, then he joins the Freemasons. So it's like Brian Stelter sitting outside of Fox News going like, Fox News is so dumb. They didn't even do anything. And he's like looking of Fox News going like, Fox News is so dumb. They didn't even do anything. And he's like looking at Fox News and like a tear rolls down his cheek. He's like, I want to go inside Fox News. He never quite cut it. No, I don't think the guy ever really wanted to work for Fox News.
Starting point is 01:40:37 I think he was a media reporter for New York Times. I guess he interviewed me back in the day. Really? Yeah, for the New York Times. You guys are the same age. Yeah. So weird. Yeah, yeah, for the New York Times. You guys are the same age. Yeah. So weird.
Starting point is 01:40:47 Yeah, yeah, yeah. He seems like a grandma. You seem like a skater dude. I know. You're totally, it's like, mind blown. I gotta say, it may have something to do with the fact that I exercise every day. Yeah. And I'm going to go ahead and assume he doesn't. Yep, that seems safe.
Starting point is 01:41:01 He should. Yep, everybody should. Absolutely, everybody should. Yeah. I don't mean that as a dick absolutely everybody should yeah i don't mean that as a dick i mean that as uh you know staying fit makes you look younger yeah i mean not only that but like i dress like some you do you do i don't wear a suit or anything if i wore a suit people would be like who's that strange man no my real criticism is about the fact that they've made it made a based on just Fox News. And it's like, listen, I understand I have my biases. I rag on CNN, too.
Starting point is 01:41:28 But I rag on MSNBC and ABC and The New York Times and The Washington Post and the Democrats. All of them. And if you want to rag on the Republicans, I totally get it. I'm down. Like, I think, you know, I have my criticisms of some of the progressive and left-wing pundits on YouTube for sure. But I respect what they do. They don't like Republicans. I get it. I don't like them either, but my focus lies elsewhere.
Starting point is 01:41:48 Yeah. I don't think the biggest threat to our nation is Donald Trump. And there are pundits on YouTube who don't think the world is ending either. I mean, I think we're facing dire straits. Don't get me wrong. I don't think the world is going to explode and Donald Trump is literally Hitler, but I think we're going to face like real street violence and chaos and stuff like that. But there are other left wing pundits who will just be like, Trump is bad. We should vote for somebody else because policy reasons. But you turn on MSNBC and Rachel Maddow's like, Russia is going to turn off our electricity. And I'm like, wow, Rachel, that was so deep up your hat.
Starting point is 01:42:21 That's a way out there. Yes. You had to pull, reach into that magic hat and pull it out. Oh, that your hat. That's a way out there. Yes. You had to reach into that magic hat and pull it out. Oh, that magic hat. Pulling random stuff out. I remember when Donald Trump said that she had blood coming out of her eyes and ears or her whatever. And they turned it into like, you remember that? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:42:36 And I'm like, dude, he didn't say it. He stopped himself. And you don't know what he was going to say out of her eyes and her ears, out of her whatever. And they turned it into a sexual thing. Yeah,'s so dumb oh so it's all so tiresome well i'm tired let's do super chats super chats super chats hey everybody thanks for hanging out we had a lot of fun mostly me just talking you know ranting because i've got some kind of compulsive issue that's that's just me but uh if you haven't already, make sure you smash that like button.

We got a super chat right here. The Gaming Ginger says, what's with this new Biden ad talking about how Trump's abandoning the US?
Starting point is 01:45:10 I love how the comments are turned off because it's unhinged. Donald Trump is like, if anything, you know, you know, if you were to tell me that Donald Trump was abandoning the US, I'm going to side eye you and be like, get out of here. If you told me that Donald Trump was standing outside of America's window, holding a boombox over his head, playing a love song, I'd be like, sounds like Trump. That sounds right. Yep. That sounds like Trump.
Starting point is 01:45:29 A little unnecessary, but. Yeah. And he's like throwing, throwing rocks at the window. And you're like, Trump, stop. I'm trying to sleep. Seriously. Francisco Rodriguez says, I've been watching your content for over a year. I love your content and objectivity.
Starting point is 01:45:41 Keep it up. Do you think school choice will affect gerrymandering since property taxes may need to spread across multiple districts to fund successful schools that's really interesting that's an interesting question i don't know probably i think you that's a question for cory deangelis yeah so he's the school choice guy on twitter yeah yeah he knows way better i see someone just said i should talk with adam carolla that'd be fun adam's cool been a fan of him for for a really long time. Not that I don't really follow him for the most part. Svane R. Carlson says, was Trump born in Orange County?
Starting point is 01:46:11 I don't think so. He was born in... Is it because he's orange? I'm wondering. It's a joke. I am wondering. I don't know where he was born. Trump is orange.
Starting point is 01:46:18 I'm curious if he was born further north. I love that Alyssa Milano tweet where she was really triggered. She was like, he's orange and it's part of his strategy and they don't care yeah i don't am i supposed to care put down the wine yeah i felt bad for her i was like you ever see the episode of rick and morty where beth shoots mr poopy butthole and then she goes in the kitchen and she grabs the wine glass and the wine and she's shaking and crying as she pours it i imagine that's how many of these tds wine moms are are like when they see trump tweet they're like and they're like shaking and i'm like calm down why would you let someone do that to you i don't know freaks me out maybe because life is boring it yep i think so
Starting point is 01:46:55 gotta find a hobby man yep you gotta take up crocheting yeah keep your hands busy osirio says hey tim staff and chat first super chat Been watching since Crowder bought Tim the firearm. I encourage everyone to look up the Yuri Bezmenov about subversion. It's dangerous and I think it's telling. And we get a lot of super chats recommending it and it is a good recommendation. And an update on that weapon, there is
Starting point is 01:47:18 a shop fairly far away who has it and we're getting ready to move. We're building a new studio. It's happening but it might take a month or so. So I'm talking to a company. We move we're building a new studio it's happening but it might take a month or so so I'm talking to a company we're gonna have a real studio right now you know we have we have cameras on tripods and like you know we have the corner of a room we have the corner of a room and like stuff we bought from Best Buy but it's very pretty good yeah except my camera we're yes that keeps turning her into a tomato but we're actually
Starting point is 01:47:42 getting legit cameras and a full studio set up soundboard, like actual equipment. Here's the craziest thing. Because we're in the middle of nowhere, we actually have to hire one of these companies to lay ground line. I roll because that takes so long. But we're going to be in the boonies and we're going to have a bunch of like, I think I'm going to hire people to literally just be barefoot and wear overalls with like red flannel.
Starting point is 01:48:04 That's me. That's my job. And have a straw, like a sheath, like a straw in their mouth and a rocking chair. Yeah. With like a shotgun. Okay. And then when people walk up and they're like, hi, I'm looking for the local town. Yeah, it's back the way it came.
Starting point is 01:48:17 Family guy joke. I know I'm stealing a family guy joke. All right, let's see what we got. Colin P says, things I did not expect in 2020. Elon Musk wrangling, beeping cyborg pigs. What i'm gonna fill it up i don't know what that is sounds amazing bomb choose says i just canceled my audible account because the three categories on the homepage were racial poetry racial justice and the best one how to raise an anti-racist you see one of the reasons i am going to be voting for Donald Trump is specifically because this guy, what's his name?
Starting point is 01:48:45 Ibrahim Kendi. Yep. He straight up says in his book, the only way to stop discrimination is more racial discrimination. And that's number one in human rights on Amazon. And it's number 13 overall. White fragility and this are overt racist ideologies. And they're encouraging our society to do the same i'm not a fan it's like i will uh encouraging alcoholics to drink more i will take the orange man over the
Starting point is 01:49:13 people who want me to hate people based on the color of their skin yeah there you go that's fair yeah daniel ashley says that the titanic launch was a mostly dry journey correct for the survivors no i i love the tweet it was a titanic journey titanic uh um first voyage mostly successful yes indeed it was indeed there you know you know what's really crazy if you think about it though the people in the titanic had a really really good time probably the best times of their lives until you know i'm not i'm not saying that to be like silly or to be dark. I'm like, no, think about it. Like you could be on a plane smiling as you're going for your first trip to Japan or whatever. And then all of a sudden the plane blows up.
Starting point is 01:49:52 That would make it by necessity the finest time of your life because it is the final event of your life. Yeah. Yeah. That's fair, though. I wonder, is it better to go that way or to be like sad and suffering? No, I think so. I think I think that was a good way to go. There you go.
Starting point is 01:50:06 I wouldn't complain about that. Commander 232 says, well, Tim, just so you know, these BLM, quote, protesters now plan to try and start crap here in Fargo, North Dakota. And what has me most worried is if you thought Kenosha with Kyle was bad, us here won't play any games from the start. I mean, it's been said, man, these people are going to show up to some town and there's going to be a bunch of dudes with guns. And they're not going to say it's back the way it came. They're going to be like, oh, look, here they come. This is your final destination. Or whatever.
Starting point is 01:50:41 Depending on which kind of gun they have. That's right. Considering that all the ammo is sold out. Yeah. Garfunkel Cat in the Parliament Funkadelic says, Tim is a former political activist in Minnesota. The Iron Range was legendary in Minnesota politics as being unbreakably and generationally DFL.
Starting point is 01:50:57 This is a port end of a huge political upheaval. This is what's really interesting. The first time we talked about was the d the the iron range in minnesota it's the largest democrat stronghold in minnesota but it's democratic farm was it democrat farmer labor that's not even the democratic party it's like strongly this very specific party that is a part of the democratic party it's something a little different and i had never heard of it before like a couple weeks ago because there was that guy remember that guy who was on a residential street screaming at people no he was a black guy he was yelling at a white family they were having a cookout in front of
Starting point is 01:51:32 their garage he was a member of the dfl and i was like what the heck is really well yeah yeah and he ended up apologizing and everything was fine but i was like wow i'd never heard of that party before turns out they are not not insubstantial. Who knew? Scott Young says, I was staying at a hotel in VA last night, and the RNC on PBS was blacked out in my area. What? That's weird.
Starting point is 01:51:55 Justin Forrest says, Corner's report shows five gunshot wounds to the first Kenosha attacker. Three shots were superficial. One was possibly lethal. The shot, which pierced both lung and liver, came from behind the attacker and hit him in the back. Whoa. Whoa. That's interesting stuff. Well, I'll be looking into that definitely for tomorrow.
Starting point is 01:52:15 Interesting. Christopher Weibel. Massive super chat. Seriously. Thank you so much. That's big. John Xiao says, or is it pronounced Xiao? I did the impossible i am done
Starting point is 01:52:26 with the nba that has been my number one go-to for anti for anti-stress but after all the crap they've pulled i am done i'm sorry to hear it man i feel for you man you know it's really crazy i follow a bunch of pro skateboarders some of them are woke some of them are not woke some of them are straight up queuing on and i'm like whoa quite the spectrum there yeah but i saw somebody this like uh an amateur skater posted a like a bunch of instagram stories about like bill clinton i wouldn't call it all the way into the q territory stuff but it was like talking about epstein and they were like i'm done with this wow a lot of people i hear that are supporting trump are doing it. So there's somebody I know from the Midwest, and they were very Green Party, third party
Starting point is 01:53:11 type, not really super interested in the two party system and very activist-y. Now they're posting a ton of stuff about supporting Trump, specifically because they've seen him targeting human trafficking, and it's one of his agenda items for a second term. Yeah. And you know what? They just found 39 kids who had been missing, for as long as two years some as some as young as three years old they found 39 kids it should have been front page news everywhere it's crazy that the media is trying to claim that trump trying to stop traffickers is him you know dog
Starting point is 01:53:39 whistling to q anon and i'm like what he's trying to save kids I see they're posting the tweets and they're like clearly he's trying to wink wink at the Q people it's like no it's the other way around actually Trump has been steadfast on ending human trafficking and that attracted the Q people right people who really care about that oh man it's just you know that makes me mad Jack Daw says you should get a hold of a prominent youtuber lewis rossman he lives and runs a business in manhattan he's been putting up a lot of videos about the first-hand experience of the violence in the streets and destruction of the economy around him interesting jack daw says tim pool is a red skull he leads people to a red pill and he can never possess in doing so
Starting point is 01:54:20 he remains a guardian on the wall forever forever watching over the world of men. Yeah, I'm voting for Trump, though. Look, the big issue to me, for the most part, with this election is that the Democrats have been overrun or adopted far-left identitarianism. And I know exactly what that means. Not going to happen on my watch. I mean, I'll do my best, but, you know, MG says, I'm not voting racist blue. I'm not voting do nothing red. I'm voting Get the job done. Make America great. Trump gold. That's it. Trump is not a Republican. He was an insurgent just like Bernie Sanders. Sanders knew his only path to winning
Starting point is 01:54:56 was to go through the democratic party. Trump knew his only path to winning was to go through the Republican party. I think the reason Donald Trump didn't run as a Democrat is because Democrats wouldn't elect a billionaire Republicans would in terms of I think the reason Donald Trump didn't run as a Democrat is because Democrats wouldn't elect a billionaire. Republicans would, in terms of nominating. But Donald Trump was a moderate and even Vox said so. Trump got in.
Starting point is 01:55:12 He opposed a ton of what Republicans wanted, creating the never Trumpers. They were complaining. They're elite cronies. So the reality is, you say Trump gold, but I hear you. It makes,
Starting point is 01:55:21 whatever the color is, he's not Republican red. He's not Democrat blue. He's not Democrat blue. He's something totally different. And there's a small handful of Republicans in the Republican Party who are whatever, you know, I mean, the left, the media pundits even call they call it Trumpism. Yeah, not Republicanism. It is different.
Starting point is 01:55:36 Yeah, they hate it. Remember, they made populist a dirty word. Yeah, they were like the problem with populist. And it's like, are you trying to argue that elitism is better? Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, argue that elitism is better yeah no no no there's not a whole lot of room there meritocracy is fine and with meritocracy you'll see wealthier people and more prominent people in in prominent roles but elitism is this idea that people who are simply rich for whatever reason are the ones who are going to be in charge nah i'm sorry i'm not into that like i said if you tell me that the iron range these this prominent
Starting point is 01:56:04 democrat uh union areas endorsing trump and then you tell me that the cronies from the government are endorsing Biden, I know which side I'm on. And it's not the government cronies, man. It's going to be union workers. Well, you're not on the side of the deep state, Tim. But when did the left decide I'm going to be opposed to the union workers? That is insane. That's's crazy i don't know you get a bunch of intelligence agents guys and they're like yep that represents me what dude the people who live humble lives and work like regular jobs and are union members long-standing democrats
Starting point is 01:56:38 wow people whose grandparents used to work in mines man care. Care more about those people. Nick Ellie says, I acknowledge that Tim is a liberal, but I think Lydia said it best several weeks ago. If you're a conservative, conserve things. Right now, what needs conserving is liberalism, which I think makes Tim a conservative liberal. Actually, I think... Actually, yeah, maybe that makes sense.
Starting point is 01:57:01 Yeah. But not in the sense of, like, conserving things. In the sense that whatever liberal is supposed to represent i am like on the left but for liberals i'm closer to the right because i'm actually in the middle you know what i'm saying like to keep actual liberalism oh yeah yeah actual liberalism is classical and social liberalism and the make the big difference it's basically a center right and a center left position they mostly get along with each other on like everything yep they have minor arguments about like government policy now you have classical liberalism social liberals are just like hiding in the corner i guess
Starting point is 01:57:34 and the far left the most most conservatives are probably in many ways very classically liberal oh definitely yeah yeah because they care about freedom and they would like to conserve some of those ideas. Right. Liberalism, in the truest sense of the word, is individuality, the consent of the governed and things like that.
Starting point is 01:57:52 And conservatives absolutely protect those values, more so than they did a while ago, too, for sure. Yeah. Yeah. They've gotten a lot more liberal in some ways.
Starting point is 01:58:00 Definitely. All right. We got a ton of super chats, man. We got too many super chats. Thank you, guys. Grim Pickens says, who cares if he crossed state lines crossed state lines sure different state laws but it's not like he went to canada a citizen's outrage about current events is valid regardless of where they live want to support a community go do it who cares where you're from i mean it sure but the left is arguing that for their rioting they're like i'm from seattle but i'm
Starting point is 01:58:22 gonna go to wisconsin and i'm like no no you don't bring that stuff into my home. Okay. However, this kid lived like 20 minutes outside of Kenosha. I'm not you're not you're not getting me with that state line stuff. It's like, dude, he was he like hung out there. It's it's his area. Either we enforce it for everyone. And no one should be crossing any state lines to do anything in other cities, or it doesn't matter at all. We're literally a suburb of philadelphia right because philadelphia borders the river and then once you cross the river you're in new jersey how absurd would it be if it was like tim pool cross state lines to go gamble yeah it's like well yeah the casino's right there it's a 10 minute drive what are we talking about i live here but it is across state lines technically correct it's really funny um so uh for for i'll tell you
Starting point is 01:59:04 i'll let most of you know the big secret we didn't do the show yesterday and i thought it'd be easier just to be like one of the reasons we were like we don't want to do the show was very simply trump was going to be giving a speech and i was like maybe it's actually a bit reckless because this is a very important thing we should be watching yeah and then some serendipitously i cracked a tooth and i was like and then i rushed to the dentist and i totally i totally uh uh it all got taken care of but the funny thing is they asked me on the phone if i've left the state because of covid they were like you're gonna come in we can take care of you you'll be done in half
Starting point is 01:59:34 an hour i'm like awesome and they you know everything was taken care of pretty easily it wasn't a big deal but they were like have you left the state at all in the past you know two weeks and i was like no and they're like okay and i was like i just started thinking about i'm like wait yeah i did no no but but what if what if i just hopped over the river yeah yeah i was like we live right here it's like if i was like yeah i went to philly for a cheesesteak yeah is that if you had i don't know yeah that's weird isn't it that is really weird we're just too close to other states here these states are too small and delaware is not far away oh here's odin oh odin thank you snap the the the all father says thank you actually says odin the almighty greetings from norway keep up the good work appreciate it very cool let's see villa music dude says you mentioned rochester and how that couple was attacked at
Starting point is 02:00:18 the fire supply fire supply store i used to live right down the street the city was doing so well the riot and violence i saw disgusted me. I feared for my mom and aunt's safety. Yeah, man. Nick Gando says, watch Colleen Noir's response to Rittenhouse. Will do. Colleen's great. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 02:00:34 Zane Carpenter says, y'all are awesome. Keep it up. Much love from a small town called Gloucester. How do you pronounce that? Gloucester? Gloucester VA. Very cool. Thank you.
Starting point is 02:00:42 Sepulci says, have you guys seen Neuralink demo today? No. That's the pig they were talking about. Really? Yeah, they implanted Neuralink in a pig. And then he controlled it? I don't know. You ever seen the movie Gamer?
Starting point is 02:00:53 Mm-mm. Is that what it's called, Gamer? I think we have. Where Michael C. Hall has, like, the nanobots that go in people's brains. Oh, baby. And then he takes over their bodies. And, like, there's a really cool scene where he, like, does this puppet dance and he makes them all do it, too.
Starting point is 02:01:03 Oh, interesting. Like, I don't want Elon Musk to be like laughing and then going like, ha ha ha ha ha and then doing it with his fingers and I'm like, oh, I can't help it.
Starting point is 02:01:11 I'm doing like Elon Musk. The future. Yeah. The YMCA. No, that's the E and the M. Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, he makes me do the Elon Musk. Oh, I see.
Starting point is 02:01:19 I got it now. Yeah, he starts puppet controlling me. This makes sense. I don't want to put it like, could you, do you know why I would not, imagine if they put Neural in your brain dude come on i mean i like the idea but think about it it's nice in principle what if china like hacked your
Starting point is 02:01:33 brain yep it's gonna be easy no thanks dude you don't be crazy what like neural link becomes a normal thing across the world and then warfare is like some like criminal comes in and like hacks some virus into your brain. And then everyone starts experiencing crazy nightmarish zombie attacks. And like you walk in 10 minutes later and they're all on the ground screaming and like bashing their heads on the walls. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:01:58 I don't know if the neural link can actually do anything like that, but if it, if they, if it got to that point where they could make you like see and hear things no i'm i'm not into that you want to see someone commit a crime that didn't actually happen but i guess i guess the general idea if the neural link is a port though right i don't know not wireless is it wireless i don't think it's wireless is it i gotta look at it i gotta see this demo they just did if it was like a port to your brain and you could click something
Starting point is 02:02:24 in and you could remove it that would probably be acceptable you know because i wouldn't want any wireless node where i'm like all of a sudden elon musk is sending like you know anime cat girls into my to my brain i'd be like no elon no what's happening they're everywhere and they're meowing at me but they're people and cartoons some people people might like it, you know. Nope, nope. I'm good. Nicodemus says, if you didn't see the Neuralink demo, the synopsis is that Elon Musk demoed an implantable computer that requires a robot brain surgeon that takes a little under an hour to complete. Oh, and the pigs with, without, and with recently removed implants.

Starting point is 02:03:15 of orange skin. Yeah. How racist is that? Well, well, that's colorism. Oh, yeah, that's right. They do. They call it colorism. Not the right shade. They are colorists for mocking Trump for being orange. Hey, you leave the orange man alone. That's right. He's one of a kind.
Starting point is 02:03:29 Well, Trump did choose to be orange, though, to be honest. Yeah, well, okay. Okay. All right. He chose to be orange. I mean, Sean King comes to mind. Let's see. Matt Graham says, I love the show, especially when Tomato Lydia is the guest.
Starting point is 02:03:40 I'd like to give a shout out to Yergy's Barbecue in Indiana. Their owner denied the governor's mandated mask order and called it tyranny his business was shut down today man that's that's messed up big mac attack says tim you're describing ghost in the shell neural link is like the priest precursor to the solid state brains yes i watched ghost in the shell you know ghost in the shells kind of it's like in the future people have cyberized brains and there's like uh what i mean one of the one of the really it's really really cool there's a character called the laughing man and when people look at them their brains are hacked and the only thing they see is this image of a smiling face with a baseball cap and there's
Starting point is 02:04:20 words spinning around it that say what i thought i'd do is I'd pretend I was one of those deaf mutes. And it's a quote from Catcher in the Rye. Oh, creepy. I think Catcher in the Rye. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's really cool. The show's amazing. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:04:35 And people have prosthetic bodies where their ghost gets implanted in other bodies and stuff. I would like that. I'll just upgrade. Giant mech robot like Mecha nixon from futurama yep yep mecha nixon oh futurama let's see here mahi masi says tim the neural link is ghost in the shell the good one that'd be cool man i like it josh nelson says from northwest maine it's very red up here 65 of our population live in duluth and Minnesota. Sorry, not Maine. From northwest Minnesota. It's very red up here. 65% of our population live in Duluth and Minneapolis.
Starting point is 02:05:10 So they kind of control our vote. Really hoping we can swing red for the first time since Reagan. I think so, man. I really do think so. Digital Shokunin says, just posted an amazing take on the legal aspects of Kyle's situation. I'll check it out. Supercharged says, hey, Tim, did you see CNN change the lower thirds that described the Coleen Noir just posted an amazing take on the legal aspects of Kyle's situation. I'll check it out. Supercharged says, hey, Tim, did you see CNN change the lower thirds that described the Wisconsin riots from violent protests to protests? They pointed it out on Daily Wire. Yep, I saw that. So cringe.
Starting point is 02:05:40 I can imagine them coming in like the intern who typed it up. They're like, no, no, get rid of violence. We like those people. We're on their side. They're like, okay, we'll just roll it back. And then it right back oh there it is so dumb magic internet veteran says you are a liberal center-right republican with populist leanings i'm actually uh well on the political compass i'm actually very left like pretty far left um but i think what what unites me for the most part with conservatives is liberty, right now at least. I'm not saying conservatives were always the same.
Starting point is 02:06:10 I think they changed. But for the most part, I'm like, so long as you believe in free speech, free expression and all that stuff, I'm down. The bigger issue for me is that I think idealistically I'm all about left libertarianism. But this can't work at a grand scale. So I move towards the center, towards liberal, but this can't work at a grand scale. So I move towards the center, towards liberal, where you have more government authority and more government control. And the cat's yelling at us. Most of you might not know this, but Bucko, the cat, you might be able to hear him yelling. When we do the show too long, no joke,
Starting point is 02:06:38 because we normally end at 10, he starts yelling because he knows this is cookie time. It is cookie time. And he joins me. When the show is over, you know, he's normally like, oh, there they are. So now we've gone six minutes over. He's yelling. He is punctual. Look at his face. You guys can't see it, but he's complaining.
Starting point is 02:06:55 Give me cookies. Thomas Lordo says former NFL linebacker Brian Urlacher is getting slammed for essentially telling NBA players to shut up and dribble. The weirdest thing about that is still that he has hair plugs now. And you know, you bring that up, but in Chicago, he totally embraced it. There's ads, billboards everywhere for him. He was really proud of it. Yeah, there's billboards everywhere.
Starting point is 02:07:20 This was a while ago. I don't know if they're still doing it. Embrace it, man. But you know what? Look, do your job. If you don't want to do your job, I get it. I just think it's ridiculous that... Oh, now he's hitting me.
Starting point is 02:07:31 He's yelling. Yeah, he's smacking me around over here. He is mad. So for those that don't know, Bucko is the cat, and he was named by my friend Emily for Jordan Peterson. I don't... Just because it was funny. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:07:42 What are you... Ow! He clawed me. Oh, no. Oh, he clawed me. Oh no. Oh, come on. He needs his cookies. Yikes.

Starting point is 02:08:05 Oh, he keeps calling me. He's mad. He's like, give me food. He said, if I say protesters, your ass, I don't talk about my ass. It's funny. But you just did. Yeah, I did. IK says, Tim, I live in California.
