Ladies and gentlemen, Governor Andrew Cuomo recently announced that he thinks we need to reopen the economy. We can't do it soon enough. We also heard from Mayor Lori Lightfoot of Chicago that bars and restaurants need to reopen. I wonder what caused the sudden change of heart from their previous positions that basically defied the science. Since the start of the COVID restrictions, there have been some people who have been standing up saying it's unconstitutional and it's unreasonable. Early on, many health experts and scientists were saying, how about we protect the vulnerable? We protect those with preexisting conditions and comorbidities, and we allow young, healthy people to work because the science wasn't out to justify destroying the economy.

Well, there was one gym that defied the lockdown in a variety of ways. But joining us now, we actually have the owner of that gym, Ian Smith. Thank you for having me. But you were still following like social distancing and masks and all that stuff, right? Yeah, we opened up with a 15-point safety protocol. When we reopened, we didn't do it to be defiant. We didn't do it to push back against government. We did it to provide a solution where there was none.

They said 14 days and seven weeks in, we were still being told to be patient and we were still being told that there was no plan to reopen. So my partner, Frank, and I put together our own plan. We social distanced. We have temperature checks at the door. We have an entirely touchless system coming in we had contact tracing we have record of every single person who's been in the facility when what time what their temperature was with a health questionnaire that filled out so on and so forth you guys took it seriously very but you were just open and for that you were fined a ridiculous

sum of money and so the big story which was we'll just into after we do the general intros, is that the government stole $173,000 out of your bank account. Now, I know some people are like, it was a fine. Someone said, if you can't handle the fine, don't do the crime. Well, you're still in court over this. Correct. They took it before there was even a ruling on what was going on, and it was your legal defense fund, wasn't it? It was. We haven't charged our members since the beginning, so that was all donations towards the legal defense fund so we'll we'll that'll be

that's the big story we're covering we got a lot more going on i mean so uh it's it's you know it's really interesting we have we're particularly fortuitous in getting our guests because there's always some big story happening around the guests that we bring in i don't know how it how it happens but in tunisia 600 over 600 arrests as riots break out because they're defying the lockdowns. In the Netherlands, over 100, I think 142 arrests in mass riots. 142 arrests is huge for riots. I mean, you rarely see that. I remember doing Occupy Wall Street. They'd be like, wow, 70 people arrested. It's a mass arrest event because they have to bring in two buses. Now, in the Netherlands, 142 people are

arrested. Some officers were injured. A horse was injured somehow. I mean, it's getting it's getting out of hand. And it's weird now that we're seeing some Democrats come out like, oh, they're going to change their mind. So we'll see how that all plays out. And then we've got some other stories. Martin Luther King Jr. Day. So naturally, there are some events and we'll have some cultural commentary on twerking for Martin Luther King Jr. I'm down. People people want to celebrate however they want that's fine so of course uh ian smith from atlas gym is joining us but we also have luke rickowski writing things down well ian i'm very happy you're here feel free to move the microphone a little bit closer if you want and he's going to be providing us very important feedback on the radowski gym that we just established here on

the beanie Compound location. So we got that looking forward to. And welcome back, beautiful and amazing human beings. My name is Luke Grodowski, and I run the YouTube channel We Are Change, and I'm here volunteering my time. Man, it's so great when other Ians are here. Confusing. Thank you for coming.

Dude, so COVID's in the food supply, apparently, according to some Chinese study. They found it in ice cream, thousands of pints of ice cream. Apparently, they think it can live in animal fat. So that is sending me on another twisting wormhole. They can take our gyms, but they can't take our ice cream. I think this should be front page red alert news from the World Health Organization that COVID can live in food. Wait, this is a Chinese study, though? Are we trusting Chinese studies? Red alert news from the World Health Organization that COVID can live in food. Wait, this is a Chinese study, though?

Are we trusting Chinese studies? Are we trusting Chinese studies at this point? They told us there wasn't any virus before. Yeah, don't worry about it. They put doctors and journalists in jail for telling everyone that there was something going around. That's logical. Yeah, it makes sense. I'm being sarcastic. But no, Ian is correct.

Is it ice cream? It's infected with COVID. I'm being sarcastic. But no, Ian is correct. Is it ice cream? In fact, it was COVID. They don't know much about it yet, but they think an employee or a group of employees put it into the ice cream maybe. So it's like dormant, frozen. It can live in the frozen. You ever see that episode of The Simpsons

where Homer buys the orange juicer? And then in Japan, the guy coughs into it, and then they seal the box. And when he opens it, the Japanese flu hits him in the face, he's like he screams and oh there's a whole thing that just follows along the theme of the simpsons just predicting everything so seriously this is just another one yeah chalk it right up when when when covet first started a lot of people were like another simpsons prediction it's like it's a funny bit where like uh chief wiggum is running down the street and he sees the cloud of germs chasing him and just shooting at it.

Anyway, of course, Sarpatch Lids is here. She's pressing all the buttons. I'm here in the corner. I'm a member of the Rudowski Gym downstairs. That's right. And I'm excited for this evening. We're growing in membership. I'm excited.

Yes, I'm stoked. It's going to be great. It's like a treadmill and what is it? A power cage? Is that what it's called? Power cage, yeah. That's all you need. Yeah, there's a bench.

That's true, yeah. And, you know, it's fun. Well, let's do this. I'm going to pull up this news story, but then I'm going to throw it to Ian because, you know, well, you need. Yeah. There's a bench. That's true, yeah. And, you know, it's fun. Well, let's do this. I'm going to pull up this news story, but then I'm going to throw it to Ian because, you know, well, you're the expert. The story's about you. But this is what we have from Fox News. New Jersey gym co-owner says state seized legal defense funds. Oh, I'm sorry.

I can't do this. I totally forgot. We have a sponsor. I was waiting. I was waiting. I was like, I'm going to read this news. And I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. We have a sponsor.

We have a sponsor. People are excited. Yeah. I want to give a shout out to PocketNet news. And I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. We have a sponsor. We're excited. Yeah. I want to give a shout out to PocketNet. Go to PocketNet.app and become a member. It is the first fully decentralized social network. And that's actually extremely impressive. So in the description below, you will see a link to the site where you can sign up.

They're sponsoring. They show me eternally grateful for this. And I got to admit, you know, we talked about it last week. Ian and I kind of talked about it because decentralization is the only real solution to the censorship problem. Because even if you're setting up your own infrastructure, there's always some chain link that can be snipped out by some authoritarian or enough pressure can get blocks put on. And there's even instances where Google seized the domain of some websites,

just seized it outright using their power to block people from being able to go to certain websites. So with PocketNet, you sign up, decentralized, and they say this. What makes them different from all the big platforms? There is no central authority or corporation. The platform is run by equal nodes on a blockchain. All revenue is split between node operators and content creators. Node operators stake PocketCoin in order to mint blocks with rewards and transaction fees. Half of rewards in each block go to content creators based on ratings their content gathers from users.

I'll be completely honest. We get a series of sponsors, and I'm not usually this excited about a project. So it looks pretty good. Ian, what do you think? Yeah, I made an account on PocketNet. I really like it. You'll notice it's slow, I think, because when you make a post, it writes it to the blockchain. It'll say, like, writing to the blockchain.

Wow. And then they pay you. I got a couple of pocket coins from, like, interactions. So the crypto market is thriving. They said specifically that the app that you get from Google right now and PocketNet.app website are ultimately not... They're good. They work, but they're still centralized. Google can take it down. So they said if you really want the unstoppable PocketNet to go to their GitHub, they have a link from their main account on PocketNet.

When you sign up, you can find their main account and they'll link you to their GitHub. And then you get the desktop app, which cannot be censored. It's a decentralized app. If there's at least a few people hosting it around the world, it stays. We've repeatedly talked about this. You know,

look, when we do sponsor spots, we normally don't go, don't go this in depth, but we've talked about it a lot on this show that we need a social network system that's powered and structured, totally decentralized. And there've been a lot of attempts at it over the years. So check out pocketnet.app in the description below and special

thanks to them for sponsoring the show. But also don't forget, go to timcast.com, become a member, help support the show. We're going to have more and more members only content coming up soon. And if you want to get the exclusive, I am a gorilla t-shirt, go to timcast.com, click shop, and you should find the I am a gorilla shirt. We've already sold over 600 of them, and we're going to be releasing a tinfoil hat edition, special edition. We're only going to have it up for like a day or two, so we'll announce when that happens. Anyway, let's get back to the news, and thanks to the sponsors. So this is a story from Fox News.

This is, where were we? New Jersey gym co-owner says state seized legal defense funds amid battle over COVID fines. Quote quote we had no money in our bank account ian smith tells tucker carlson tonight well i don't need to read this but i will mention 173 613 stolen by governor phil murphy and his cronies but ian's here so dude what happened so uh just a regular day you know opening our gym frank my partner checked the bank account and um i believe it was thursday morning and it was bone dry down to the very last penny was it was there was there literally like no like zero zero dollars um

every they took everything um and next to it it had a you had a transaction for New Jersey state execution. For the total amount? For everything that was in the bank account. But how did they know what to request? Or did they just say, give us the account? I'm pretty sure they just called Santander Bank and said, you're going to empty this bank account now. And they said, sure. And then did they tell you why they did it?

No. We've got no explanation from anybody. All right. So let's let's let's break down the story real quick from the beginning. You guys were locked down like everybody else. And then one day you opened back up and the governor was like, no, none of that. So what happened? So about seven weeks into the lockdown, Frank and I decided that we were going to reopen.

We were going to do so publicly, not because we wanted the attention, but because we wanted to present a plan to the public where all small businesses could use the same measures that we had adapted to their own business. We were looking around, I think like most people had started to at that point and saying, a lot of this doesn't make sense. The fact that all of these small businesses are villainized and deemed as unsafe, but you can slap a mask on your face and wipe your cart down and go have a frenzy in Walmart just wasn't really making sense. So we said, OK, we're going to devise our own safety plan. We went above and beyond. which convert humidity in the air to OH molecules, runs 33,000 cubic square feet per minute circulating air.

I mean, we did everything we possibly could to the point where if they told us we couldn't open, it would be absurd. And then we opened. And we were met with the heavy hand of government on day one. And that just continued to escalate to the point where now, eight months into it, we have over 80 criminal and municipal charges. We've had our business license stripped. We've had a health department shut down.

We've had our locks physically changed. We've had our doors boarded up. We've been arrested. We're fined $15,497.76 per day for every day that we're in operation, which was originally a fine for being open. And then once gyms were allowed to be opened, the attorney general called us and said, you need to mandate masks. And we said, no, we're going to make them optional because while working out, it's not really a smart thing to have your face covered um and it even says in the executive order in new jersey that opened sports that you shouldn't wear it during intense aerobic and anaerobic activities that's the government's actual recommendation that's the government's

recommendation in the executive order that opened indoor sports yeah they said it's dangerous to wear but in the executive order that opened gyms, they said cloth face coverings are required, which is just like the government. It makes no sense. It's not surprising at all. So I guess what I wanted to get to starting from the beginning is some people have already commented in the chat that that money that was taken wasn't stolen. It was a fine. You owed the government, right? Sure.

Sure. It was an unconstitutional and oppressive fine. The laws when it comes to fining businesses, I think the exact word they use is it should be a punitive sting. And fining a small business that has only been open for less than two years, $15,497.76 per day is not a punitive sting. That's a death blow. Even one day. Exactly. Even one day. I mean, our membership revenue is not that barely covers a month of memberships a month. You know, it just it's so out of proportion that those fines are unconstitutional. So we've been fighting them ever since we're in the appeals process. So, yes, we are fine. Absolutely.

You know, people are right when they say, you know, you're being fined. Correct. But the process is not concluded yet. So this was your legal defense fund. You were in court. In court. In active litigation in four different matters. And so before there was any resolution, they drained your accounts. Yep. So here's my question. Was this account an existing account you had, or was it new and set up for legal defense? This was an existing business account, but the money comes almost entirely from our GoFundMe account, which is where people donate either locally because we don't charge for it.

We don't charge members. We haven't charged our members since April 1st. First of all, we didn't charge because we weren't allowed to be open. So we said we're just open. We weren't in it for the money. We were in it to win a legal battle. But then after they stripped our business license, obviously, we're just open. We weren't in it for the money. We were in it to win a legal battle. But then after they stripped our business license, obviously, we can't charge. So we haven't charged.

It's all donations. And then it's T-shirt sales. Do you own the building? We do not. But our landlord is very accommodating. Ah, interesting. Yeah, I wondered about that because there's other businesses, too, who have defied lockdown and things like that in various areas. And I wonder what the landlords are probably thinking. i wonder if the government's gone to them but i

want to get to the most interesting uh aspect outside of this so first i just want to make sure we stress that was the legal defense fund for paying your lawyers to challenge the fines in the first place and they went and they took your ability to defend yourself that's crazy but let me tell you you know i think the craziest thing is and you can elaborate on this so i actually uh i used to live right by your gym, like maybe like, I think only like three and a half, four miles away. And we cruised over a couple of times and talked to some of the locals. You weren't there.

I'm not sure, you know, what had happened, but you know, you guys had like the 14th amendment written and put up on the windows and stuff. So we went there after it was announced that your gym had been flooded. Yeah. And so we talked to some locals who told us something really crazy that someone stuffed paper towels into a like a sewage line a vent or something in the back causing a backup and that's this is what someone told me so tell me tell me if this is true or not someone there said that the previous day just before the flooding happened there were two squad cars

blocking the alleyway behind both the entrance and both entrances to the alleyway. So there's like a single stretch that goes behind this complex. And they said that two squad cars were like blocking the road. And the cops said, you can't come back here. Go away. Next thing they knew, someone back there jammed it full of paper towels and flooded the whole building. There's also a Barrow-Belmar water truck back there, too. Really?

Yes. Coincidentally. Coincidentally. And that was one of seven times it happened i think i think when you guys were there it was actually the first time yeah the first time we've had seven sabotages in total all the same thing like jamming paper towels or what the the building is is pretty old so whoever is doing it and and i i i do not claim to know who but it's definitely intentional we've had multiple plumbing crews come out and say this isn't i mean this isn't you know somebody took a big dump and and you know had too much toilet paper this is this is a very intentional act whoever's doing it understands that we have a very old system

and what they're doing is is manipulating just a crappy old plumbing system. So it takes somebody who knows what they're doing. So and just to clarify, did you witness a water truck and police cars blocking that area? We had pictures of it. Yeah. I didn't personally witness it, but I had pictures sent in. Around that time that we reopened, we had so many eyes and ears on the place just because people were so invested in our story and invested in what we were doing that there were people sleeping out in the parking lot. During the opening nights, there were people kind of surveilling the place,

sending us pictures, videos, the whole nine. Is it possible that the good hearted police were guarding the water truck trying to save your business from the flooding? I mean, the water truck came out to try and make sure, you know, oh, no, it's going to flood. We've got to save this guy. It's hard to imagine they would be doing anything else but that. I was going to ask you, how's your relationship with the police there? Because wasn't there one viral video of an officer refusing to kind of go through with the order? So how has that been?

Can you explain to people what happened and your relationship with them? Yeah, absolutely. I mean, we notified the police we were going to open. We notified the mayor, everybody. And that was because we didn't want to blindside anybody. We knew a lot of people were going to show up, and we didn't want to put the town in any more of a difficult position than we were putting it in. So that video was actually from day one. At right about 12 o'clock, they walked up,

and that was the now-retired police chief or captain. Captain, excuse me. Retired now? Yes, retired. Apparently, he was on his way out, and he was done with the BS anyway. But yeah, he came up, and he said, you're all in violation of an executive order. He took a nice, long, dramatic pause, and he said, on that note, everybody have a nice day.

I remember that. Yeah. And it was funny because back then we were like, yes, we won. We did it. We did it. And Governor Murphy saw that video. And 15 minutes later, the Attorney General Gerber Gual called the Camden County prosecutor or excuse me, the Camden County prosecutor who then excuse me. The Camden County prosecutor. Who then called the Belmar Police Department.

And said if you do not get in there and take action. We are going to furlough the entire Belmar Police Department. For 60 days. Yes. And so the spineless Belmar cops came. So the second lieutenant. Who is definitely a bootlicker. He was anxious to please Father Murphy. And came up and handed us our first of 80 summons.

Wow. Wow. First. So before he showed up and issued the summons, did he go to Murphy's house to lick his feet? I can't confirm that. Out of all the Belmar – so we have a great relationship with the Belmar pd most of them before covid were members of our gym oh cool you know belmar and you're familiar with the area you know it's it's a local blue collar kind of middle class area so our gym is full of these kind of people they're full of cops firefighters um you know active and and veteran

military um and it's a shame because they were put in a bad very bad position most of them didn't want to be there from start and then as it started to escalate they were forced to do things that they didn't want to do i disagree well correct me if i'm wrong weren't people arrested uh for just attending your gym as well one person was uh Several people were cited, though. And fun fact, all of those citations are the only still existing COVID citations for any protesting during that time. All other charges have been dropped except any regarding a tillage. What did they get charged for? Violation of a governor's orders, which is this archaic statute from like 1890 something. You sure they didn't say decree

this is why i say i disagree because i remember watching this video where i'm not sure if it was you or somebody was saying you look the cops are doing their jobs they're being forced to do this nah i i think any one of those cops could have been like nah and then they and then it would have been done they wouldn't have gotten rid of the police they wouldn't have furloughed the department if every single officer said do it furlough us and then when you start getting phone calls and they call for your head you come knocking give us a raise whatever i've seen it happen in numerous protests you're you're right you're right but it would take it would take that one person to to say no and then it would take the other people to get up on the dance floor with them

and unfortunately that doesn't happen and if i agree with you 100 if we had uh you know we've had too many good times uh this this this past several decades have been good times all around and you know i think i see in my opinion what's going on is these cops many of them can see the suffering that you that your your customers that your business the local business are going through and they can see the suffering of the middle class blue collar worker who can't feed his kids anymore. And they think, I don't want to be like them. I'm getting a paycheck. So I'll lick the boot of whoever takes if I get my paycheck. So then, you know, the problem I see is, and with all due respect, when people say, well, they have no choice, they do. It's a job. They could say, I will not oppress my community for a paycheck. And if at once,

one person, two people, if all of these regular guys who are in the department just said, you're not going to get me to do it because I go to that gym. They're going to get mad at me. I'm not going to be able to go out for beers with anybody anymore. Then they'd be like, sorry, governor, we can't do it. You're going to bring in cops from a different city because these guys won't do it. Instead, they just say, just say sure whatever and then they get the other problem is there's no penalty for the cops who violate the constitutional rights of individuals the first amendment doesn't doesn't have their caveats it doesn't it right we have a right to assemble for whatever reason ian let's go assemble to play magic the gathering okay there's no the the first amendment doesn't say

anything about why you can assemble, just that you can't. Just the right. Yeah. All it takes is for those cops to say, I won't violate the constitutional rights of these individuals, and then it would not happen. More than that. The problem is I don't think a lot of them are educated on that. I don't think when they sign up for the job these days – and that doesn't excuse them by any means. But I don't even think that's stressed anymore in the police academy. I don't think...

You know what I think? I think you guys are too good of people. I think that's really it. I think you're respectful and nice to these guys because you know you don't want those cops to be out of work. You want everybody to be able to work, feed their families, and so you give them the respect. They don't return. And so long as the community isn't willing to...

You know what you need? You need like... What did Jorge say? What's the what's the slipper called that the mom wax? Yeah, he was talking about how like, you know, what happens if you go against, you know, they hit you with a little slipper. You need you need something like like a grandma to be like, young man, what are you doing? And have them be like, listen, it's not OK what you're doing to these people. But so long as the community says, thank you, officer, we respect what you're doing, they'll keep doing it.

If you guys said you do this, you're never welcome here again, they'd think twice. You're starting – I think you're starting to actually see that. You're starting to see the cops now get a lot of pressure from the right as frustration tends to mount. I think in the beginning of this it was the you know especially the right tends to be the the thin blue line crowd you know you know what i mean not anymore and and it that definitely seems to be at least wavering a little bit you know because people are getting more and more frustrated and they're saying you know they've tried everything they're

opening their business they're doing you know they. They're trying to live their lives. They're trying to just not be bothered. And we're eight months in, and there's still police officers who are going along with it. So you're starting to get that sentiment where people are getting a lot less forgiving about, oh, you're just following orders. I think you're going to see more of it, too. You talked about some of these officers being ignorant, but I know a lot of police officers that I always say not knowing the law is not an excuse for not following it. Fair point. And they need to really understand here, this is so counterintuitive. We have these decrees by a Goldman Sachs executive who is now governor that is telling you, no gym, no small businesses, no working out, no bettering yourself.

Meanwhile, Walmart, liquor stores, all of them perfectly fine. But you're talking about you're in the business of making people healthy, right? You're in the business of making people work out. Me and Lydia just started lifting literally like a week ago, only once. We're already hooked and addicted to it because you feel great. It feels good. It feels amazing. And that's something that people are deprived of because of a goldman sacks executive saying i know what's better for you and they don't because if they did they would have been talking about diet nutrition sleep exercise almost everything the opposite so so so what you brought up is something very important uh these officers need to know that they're part

of a larger problem that they need to realize and they need family and friends to come together and shame them for doing the wrong thing and following people who are doing bad things. I agree, but I'll push back a little bit. I don't like the shaming thing. It's like a very left-wing thing where they chant shame. You wanted a chongla across their head.

You know what a chongla is? You know how it hurts? They hurt, man. They hurt. I'm talking about someone's grandma bopping them on the head, lightly being like, how dare you? A well-placed chongla will hurt. I'm talking about someone's grandma bopping him on the head, lightly being like, how dare you? A well-placed chongle will hurt.

Yes. I'm not saying beat your kids. I'm saying you got some guys in his late 20s, early 30s, and his grandma's like, what did you do? Are you nuts? And then have him be like, okay, grandma. Well, that's what I mean. I agree with you on that point.

I think we need more of that. The problem I see is there have been these stories of leftist cafes where a cop will come in and they'll be like, get out. We don't serve your kind around here. No cops. And the cops are like, dude, what? I think that's crazy. It's like, dude, we need police.

I think it was Brett Weinstein who said a civilized society requires the police to be able to arrest people. And sometimes they make mistakes and there are errors. We have to sort through those things. I think when police brutality happens, it's horrible. It needs to be able to arrest people okay and sometimes they make mistakes and there are errors we have to sort through those things i think when police brutality happens it's horrible it needs to be stopped i think when police abuse their power we got to call it out and we need some police reform because there's issues where i've seen i've seen way too many examples of cops not being held accountable but i think it's insane if you go around saying all cops are bad or whatever and you know to uh to my good friend michael malice i mostly disagree and he says he said all cops are criminals i've actually heard him re uh what's the word uh recalibrate that recalibrate yes that's

one way to phrase it uh that wasn't what i was gonna say what do you like on his show yeah he was saying they're not all they're not all horrible people i i was surprised to hear him say it because we had this conversation and my thing is like there's a problem with the culture there's a problem with people refusing to hold them accountable and you know for a long time i think because the left irrationally attacked cops with all the riots especially watching watching the minneapolis police department be burned down and the cops running for their lives as like riders are storming the building and torching it and then you have in portland where they barricaded the front and back so there was no way out and tried burning the building down people inside of it i can sympathize with those officers like dude that's crazy yeah i don't

like getting tickets either you know but it's like come on man you don't burn a building out with people inside it because you're mad they're giving fines people they have quotas but then the issue is because of that i see a lot of conservatives who are defensive of police who will say they're just overly so right exactly overly so so. Right, exactly. Overly so. Now it's changing, though, where they threw the thin blue line flag on the ground and stomped on it. Yeah, I mean, I've been speaking in D.C. for all these past events and stuff, bringing in the small business aspect. And you're starting to see, especially D.C. at night when Antifa and the Proud Boys tend to go at it, neither side is very appreciative of the cops being there.

You have the leftist chant that all cops are bad and then you have basically the right side saying, why are you protecting these people? Let us take care of it. And why are you defending the Antifa? Why are you holding us back? And they're getting increasingly frustrated. And I don't see it going anywhere except in that same direction, in a downward spiral, where they're going to be pitted between everybody. I think there's a lot of tribalism here.

And I think – like we were just saying, a lot of people on the right were very defensive of cops. It was a cold wake-up call when the conservatives were the ones getting arrested and smacked down. Yes, it was. You know, I've seen a lot of peaceful, legitimate leftist protests. I like how they say, you know, like 93% of all the protests were peaceful. And it's like, okay, okay, I get it. No, but there were a lot. In my day, I've seen peaceful protests protests i've seen the cops strike first i've seen you know a

cop walk up to a crowd of people in ferguson and throw a flashbang at him for no reason there was no order there was no nobody cared and they just started this and all of a sudden boom everyone went crazy and people were running and screaming and then looters started looting in the chaos and i'm like why would they do that and there's no accountability for that stuff but But you seeing that I say, the logical solution is, well, we need some reform, like we need to be able to call that out. Journalists should film that guy, there should be video of it. Instead, we get a very extremist left view that all cops everywhere always are bad, burn down all the building, which is insane. And then on the right, you get this overwhelming forgiveness. I'm worried about what's going to happen when police have no support. And we

actually get a defund the police movement that has no resistance because i can't see conservatives being like i'm going to keep sticking up for these people after my business was destroyed you know eventually the last no you're gonna you're gonna lose support from every side and then these same politicians who have been chanting defund the police are going to have absolutely no opposition to it because all rational thinking is just going to go out the window because everybody's emotional at that point and then the politicians are going to do what they do best and take advantage of a situation where people are pitted against each other and they get to do whatever they wanted to do anyway you see what happened in minneapolis after they voted to

defund the police yeah crime skyrocketed crime skyrocketed and they i think they actually had to do a study as to figure out why. That's so weird. They started getting a bunch of phone calls from angry constituents saying, why are people shooting outside my house? Why is crime skyrocketing? And they ran back in and said, can we take this back and bring the police back? They already lost a ton of officers who quit because they were like, you don't support us. We're getting out of here. We're done.

And so now crime remains very high. Crime is high across the board. But the cops that stayed, they stayed because they still had support. I can't imagine at this point. I mean, you got to be crazy. Look at what happened in New York City. You got to be crazy to live in New York and support the police. I'm sorry, man. Maybe maybe upstate New York. But in New York City, the mayor, without without any approval painted a political slogan in the street got a bunch of nypd to protect it and actually arrest those who opposed it and now they're lining up in front of bars blocking people from walking into a building doing something similar to what you guys did opening you know but not selling stuff doing

donations yeah i was at i was at max public house you want to check it out yeah i was there i actually i spoke there and went up to show my support to danny and them and they had 20 those were sheriffs there's uh they're basically uh cuomo's personal guard i mean seriously because he had at that point he had lost the support of the nypd there was nypd driving by honking their horns they were driving up the street honking their horns in support i can support that. Which I thought was pretty cool. But yeah, that was the sheriffs who were doing that that day. But they, I mean, that's exactly what they were. They were there to enforce his personal will.

That's what it is. There's no statutory law by which he can do this. In fact, it flies in the face of the Constitution. And every time him, Murphy, Whitmer, you know, Wolf, when they do these things and then lose in the courts, they just, well, I'll do another one. And that's it. Snap their fingers. Oh, what's that? You sued?

And now my executive order has been rescinded? Here's a new executive order slightly different. Or they just come at you with another public institution. They'll bring in the health department. They'll bring in the zoning department. And they just move right on to the next thing. Cuomo lost the support of the NYPD, so he shifted to the sheriffs. Newsom lost the support of the sheriffsd so he shifted to the to the uh sheriffs newsom lost the the support of the sheriff so he went with the health department health department he can control very easily all right well i'll tell you this you know we got a lot to complain

about in terms of the destruction of the economy but uh well something's happening in europe which is quite a bit different germany is going to be placing people who break quarantine into detainment camps into either refugee camps or detention centers anybody else got deja vu from that yeah germany should be like the one place that like there's no camps nothing not even summer camps none they need to wait until everyone else decides no no at no point should we be setting up internment camps for things like this. When you get to the point where you're like, we're going to set up a relocation facility, like you got to stop and reflect on what it is you're doing. All right, because what's really funny about this, let me show you the story. This is from Telegraph. Germans who keep refusing to quarantine could be put in detention centers under new COVID rules. In some German states where all other options have been tried, authorities to detain those who refuse to enter quarantine. So they mentioned there's a couple different states,

like Eastern State of Saxony, where hospitals have been struggling to cope with one of the worst outbreaks. They have confirmed plans to hold quarantine breakers in a fenced off section of a refugee camp. What? Three further states. Baden-Württemberg, Brandenburg and schlosswig holstein i'm not i can't speak german have also either already created such facilities or in the process of doing so a report in sunday's edition of welt newspaper stated

in baden wortenberg two hospitals will have rooms reserved for repeat offenders which will be guarded by police brandenburg will use a section of a refugee center while chelsea holstein will use an area within a juvenile detention center well we're at the point now where they're setting up the camps but uh i i got i got i got a sign because you know i started this by saying we got a lot to complain about but over in europe it's getting bad well they're proposing this the same thing in new york state did you hear about this yeah and there's actually um there's there's a whole saying, we've got a lot to complain about, but over in Europe, it's getting bad. Well, they're proposing the same thing in New York State. Did you hear about this? Yeah.

And there's actually a whole study that was put forth on the CDC website about this, and they call them green zones. Yeah, you can pull that up. It basically outlines a plan to section off areas of the country and relocate people who are sick that's on the cdc website what the heck that's crazy why would you put sick people together and put people there why would you why would you put people that you think might be sick all together to make them more stripped like four or five pages it's it's well thought out they're talking about um if if the

person who gets sent away can't care for themselves then somebody has to go with them so you know if you have like an elderly parent who's getting sent away you're up for the camp as well oh my gosh what's this called exactly this was on the cdc website i think i may have found it let me see if i'm i think they refer to them as green zones i will also point out on the the CDC website, it specifically says there's no evidence of COVID existing in the food supply. I looked it up today. But another thing you have to realize is that the CDC, the World Health Organization, they keep contradicting themselves nonstop, 24-7. They told us that there was no human-to-human transmission, no transmission through air.

They flip-flop on the mask. They flip out on so many things, it's very hard to understand what they're saying. Now, another thing to really kind of really consider here, and it's kind of worrisome, especially the news in Germany, because they're really pushing this forward. But one of the things that they say is that this is going to be specifically for rule breakers. What rules are we talking about? These are very generalized language and when it comes to the government's response to covid a lot of the rules are arbitrary a lot of

them are made up a lot of them have shown to have no actual effect on stopping uh the sickness the lockdowns have been found in some instances to actually hurt more people than help people i i i gotta tell you man for the people listening just google search a picture of murphy governor murphy of new jersey and i got i can tell you shield your eyes here no here's what i think i'm gonna give you i'm gonna give you my my my opinion on this okay you got this guy ian smith how tall are you six foot six foot and you're you're pretty ripped man you work out you run a gym once in a while you got a sweet beard. And you got the slick back hair.

I think it's personal. Governor Murphy saw you. And you're like this dude at this gym. And he went, I want that. No, no, no. When the cop sided with you, I bet it was personal. I bet he thought about himself and being a whiny loser. And then here's this successful guy. He's running a gym.

He probably couldn't get it up that night. That's probably what this is all about. No, but I know. Outside of trying to poke a dick at him for being like a nerdy guy, I really do think he was personally insulted. How dare you challenge my power? The thing is, he's been governor since Januaryuary 2018 and he's got massive amounts of power yeah way too much for one person yep well well let's let's he came he came in the door like that like like just overstepping almost right away let's let's let's think about this okay i when i

when i heard the story of the cop who came up when you were mentioning he said you're all in violation of executive order that being said have a nice. I'm sure he got so mad, like, how dare you? I'm the governor. You obey me. And so he made that call, threatening to furlough an entire department unless they bend to his whim. Talk about a lunatic. But think about think about that level of depravity. I pulled up what you talked about. This is really interesting. I have CDC.gov right here, and they say interim operational considerations for implementing the shielding approach to prevent COVID-19 infections in humanitarian settings. Well, hold on, guys. Shielding. That sounds pretty good, right?

That sounds good. What does shielding mean? They say let's see what they say. Current evidence indicates that older adults and people of any age who have serious underlying medical conditions are at higher risk for severe illness. Let's see what they say. the general population to prioritize the use of the limited available resources and avoid implementing long-term containment measures among the general population. Ah, let me break that down. They're saying we'll take the people who could get sick and we'll remove them from urban areas and population centers because we don't want to inconvenience the general population.

Now, hold on. I did say protect the vulnerable allow the you know everyone everyone to work i just don't like the idea of physically removing people from areas i'm splitting up families yeah i'm talking about just like having a building where it's like a sign on the door saying at risk for covid and then having special precautions like you put the package down they clean it before bringing it in. Not taking the people out of the building. Yeah, you could put like a symbol on their door. Yeah, that's something that hasn't been tried in Nazi Germany.

Yeah, well, yeah. Okay, so to be fair. What about armbands? If you were to put, no. Something like that. Ian, if you were to put a sign on someone's door that said, this person is at risk of developing COVID, please be extra careful. I don't think that's anywhere near. You could put a little star, David, with a smiley face next to it. No, no.

I don't think it's even close to put a little star david with a smiley face next to it i don't think it's even i think it's disgusting i think if you're going to single people out for a invisible uh disease uh virus that we think is out there and then stuff them in concentration camps that we're looking at 21st century genocide we're looking at the world war three and we're declaring it on ourselves i don't have you guys seen that movie songbird you have you heard about it is that the michael bay one where it's like 2024 and covid 23 is like mutated and everyone's locked down it's an interesting movie because the government's the bad guy in it and that but that's the premise of the movie is that there's these green zones that your zones q zones okay so they they cleverly renamed it from the cdc website exactly uh i think that's like the plot of it right there. Well, check this out. Check this out.

So no, I just pulled up the New York State Senate Assembly Bill A416. Now, first, let me just say it's only in committee. The bill was introduced. It is in committee. It's not on the floor calendar. It is not passed. The Senate or the Assembly has not gone to the governor and has not been signed. This might just fizzle out and die.

But this bill basically says, and look, it pertains to the removal and detention of cases, contacts and carriers who are or may be a danger to public health. Other orders provisions of the section shall be utilized in the event of the governor declares a state of health emergency due to an epidemic of any communicable disease and knee. But here's my favorite part. Let's say. It's very broad language. It says cases or contacts that may be a danger. That's what you got to read into.

What's a contact that may be a danger? Simple. Let's say you get an Amazon delivery. A box on your doorstep. You pick it up. You open it. And there's a sonic bread knife. Yeah.

And you press the button you cut through the bread we're getting one of those by the way so we can vibroblade so let's let's say you get you get one of those carving knives you know then someone shows up your door and it's a little cuomo and he's like you were in contact with a box from someone who is sick therefore you may be a danger and they'll detain you what about the mailman mail gets covet everyone on the mail route now well the thing you got to understand here is that the language here is very generalized and there's going to be yeah it's done like that many times because the government could then look at this little piece of paper and say well we can interpret this any which way we want.

And probably because of some privacy or HIPAA laws, you won't even know if it's the mailman or if it's somebody else. It'll be kept away from you. And the thing that's really kind of scary here, actually, the Walmarts, Costco, BLM protests, the lockdowns, the selective politicking of this entire scenario. We have seen it bastardized and used and abused for political power to the highest extent. What makes you think that this higher authority that this government is demanding from you, that it won't corrupt them to use it and abuse it against other political enemies. I figured it out. Ian, why don't you just, while everyone's working out, chant, hey, hey, ho, ho, racism has got to go.

Put up a Black Lives Matter banner. They won't touch it. We thought about that. We thought about just smashing our own windows in and you would just run in and pick up some dumbbells and then run out with them that'd be great that was that was your workout you were just moving things no but i mean like what would happen if you actually just invited some activists down i mean here's the interesting thing look they don't like cops right and the cops the ones shutting you down

what if you just said hey black lives matter do you want to have an event here they uh black lives matter got very upset with me because um the the local black lives matter in in the philadelphia south jersey area contacted me and told me that i needed to put a black square on my profile um because yeah um i was contacted by more than one person saying, you need to do this because you have a voice, and we supported you opening. And that was during the whole George Floyd thing. And I said, I don't know enough about this situation to do that, and I'm going to use my platform because that was when my platform started growing. Once we reopened, I went on Tucker Carlson. I started to grow on social media, and then it was expected of me to do that. I hate it when people do it.

If I invited them, I don't think they would come on the show. No, you know what? I can't blame you because if someone comes to me and says, do this, you have to. If someone does something for you and then they expect something of you, it's so obnoxious. But you know what I would say? The saying is,

there is no no in business if someone comes to me and says i want you to do this i say okay here are my terms so if if if someone came to me and said you know black lives matter we want your profile to be you know the black square i'd be like sounds good to me will you guys show up we'll make a big thing of it like you'll come down to my my gym we'll open up you guys will protest and then i'll pull up my phone and i'll do it and we'll high five how does that sound but what are the cops the cops then your gym's open you know what i mean and then you know i returned okay you got it you know what i mean come down you support us protest the cops but i guess especially the time you guys are trying to be respectful to the police yeah

and the george floyd stuff so i'm sorry i had the a fight with the governor to attend to i didn't i didn't really have time for you know know, being, being everybody's advocate. I was trying to be an advocate for small business. Yeah. Uh, and, and myself and my family. And that was,

that was apparently unacceptable. Um, you know, uh, I don't know if you've seen the, uh, the, the Boogaloo boys stuff,

but the Boogaloo boys, they're out and they're with black lives matter. Like there's black lives matter person standing next to a guy with the Hawaiian shirt on or whatever, which is a change of tone for the, the Boogaloo i don't think so i don't know no not the boo so there's there's a video from months ago where the boogaloo boys wearing their hawaiian shirts and tactical vests and guns are marching around with black lives matter and then antifa this is this is crazy video on antifa there's antifa on the left boogaloo boys on the right and the antifa guy shakes the hand of the Boogaloo Boy and says, I know we don't agree, but you stood with us today, and for that, we respect you.

And the Boogaloo Boy says, we agree with you, man. We agree with you completely. We just – we all – we don't like the government, so I think that's where we can start. And they're together. Like, which makes no sense, though, because, I mean, BLM and Antifa go running to the left and they, you know, they eat out of the hands of Kamala Harris and the politicians on the left who pander to them. And the Boogaloo boys do not go to the right. So actually, let's let's let's do this. Let's jump to this story and we'll get into it. We got this from Reuters annual Annual pro-gun event at Virginia

fizzles in wake of U.S. Capitol siege. They say only a few dozen gun rights activists converge in the Virginia state Capitol on Monday for an annual demonstration that typically draws thousands with this year's protests dampened by tensions in the wake of the January 6th siege in the Capitol. Now, I'm not entirely sure they're right about this. Sometimes what happens with these news stories when they talk about these events, this was published at 6.15 a.m. We actually have this tweet from Ryan Devereaux from 5.37 p.m. where you can clearly see there's Black Panthers out there, there's Proud Boys, and there's Boogaloo Boys. And the interesting thing about it is Ryan Devereaux tweets, heard a 20-year-old Boogaloo boy call a passing group of Proud Boys, quote, boot-licking statist cucks.

The Proud Boys dismissed the Boog as anarchists. The original Black Panther Party just seemed happy to be there. So I guess, look, I don't know if it's the same event. Maybe it must be different. I thought it was the same event, so maybe I'm wrong about that. But there were still people coming out and protesting in various areas. What I find interesting about this story is just how the Boogaloo Boys are an entity unto themselves. They're basically just anarchists or libertarian types.

And growing in popularity too. There's more and more people who are starting to identify with that. Let's just throw the whole government out but but you know it's it's because i mean do you know anybody who's happy with government right now no and right for good reason i mean you can't blame these people for being frustrated now i might not agree with the hawaiian church and and all that um yeah right but i mean we're we're rapidly approaching that point where the whole system is just broken like we're just gonna have to throw the whole thing out. I mean, Thomas Jefferson, was he the one who said every 200 years you've got to purge and recycle or whatever?

Well, this group is definitely interesting because it's hard to kind of nail them down. Just a few months ago, the mainstream media was talking about them being right-wing extremists, but they are hypercritical of Donald Trump. They are hypercritical of Donald Trump. They are hypercritical of government officials. We saw in one particular state, one of the Boogaloo Boys had a trans flag. Another person stood next to and was with a Black Lives Matter person, and it looked like they were all together. But another thing we really have to understand here, a lot of this is overhyped by the mainstream media. Because if you remember just a few days ago we were hearing news reports fbi warnings total fear-mongering paranoia massive armed rallies happening this weekend all throughout the united states and all the major capitals and what did we get crickets no like three guys five guys standing around five guys in new hampshire a couple guys in virginia

and now we had another rally today in virgin that was separate. Out-of-shape guys. Some of them are out of shape. Some of them just look like they— They have shapes. They're just not very good. But today in Virginia, we saw the biggest rally, and we saw a bunch of groups, a bunch of individuals, and this was the biggest one. But again, everything was very peaceful. Everything was very calm.

They came armed. No one got shot. No one got hurt. Thank goodness for that. And it's the opposite of everything that we've been hearing on the mainstream media about how there's a bloodbath coming and there's still fear mongering about this at the U.S. Capitol that literally, I don't know why no one's talking about this,

but it looks like the Washington, D.C. is literally under occupation right now and no one's trying to even talk about green zones and police checkpoints and what in the world is happening in the center of the United States. 25,000 National Guard full of kids. Interesting number. That's 10 times the amount of troops that we have in Iraq.

I read that today. We have about 2,500 to 3,000 in Iraq. We have more troops. We have 25,000. And they're asking for 30. Why? In the capital. 25,000 and they're asking for 30. Why? And hundreds of NYPD officers literally went down today to add more security and assistance. Yes. NYPD sent out...

From who? The Boogaloo Boys? Exactly. Well, this is the thing. There's so much... This is what I did a video on today, specifically on the We Are Change channel about this active national security fear paranoia state that is absolutely ridiculous. And when you see the mainstream media coverage, it looks like there's going to be a huge conflict. But the only thing I'm seeing is people saying, hey, stay home, stay away from this. There might be a potential for a false flag. Get away from there. Don't go there. But we're still being told by the mainstream media that there's going to be hell to pay. Those 25,000 National Guardsmen all are being vetted to make sure that they don't support Donald Trump too much. Loyalty tests.

They're literally doing loyalty tests right now. There were some reports that the Democrats wanted to make sure that the National Guard who voted for Trump, they'd vet or remove. Weren't there. I don't know how true that is. I've seen the footage on Twitter. This originally came out from a congressman demanding this and now schumer and pelosi officially came out saying we want the dod to vet everyone there and we have the acting defense security chief coming out and saying there's no threat of an insider attack like we've been hearing on the mainstream media again

but i mean specifically like are the democrats saying we want to know who voted for trump or are they saying we want security assessments? Because I heard reports that they were concerned about National Guardsmen who voted Trump as the starting point to actually look into their backgrounds. Yes. Yes. And that Nancy Pelosi came out and I think said that. And then they also requested – and I don't know if it ever went through, but I know that somebody from Congress requested that, and I think it was Nancy Pelosi as well, that they be unarmed. Yeah, I think a lot of them have been unarmed.

There's a lot of photos of them without magazines in their rifles. So, yeah, right. They wanted to disarm them, which is interesting. Who armed them in the first place? But this is this is what do you need 25,000 unarmed troops? Who sent them? No, no. But this is weird.

This is weird. Why are there 25,000 soldiers in D.C. anyway? Who put them there? Was it the Democrats? Nancy Pelosi is saying we're worried about this. Vet them and disarm them. I don't think she's the one who put them there. I don't think the Democrats are the one who demanded 25,000.

Is this Trump? Well, there's the way I heard it explained... I would assume as the... The way I heard it explained is just another vague term saying these were federally mandated soldiers that were sent there by the federal government. That's the vague, biggest language. That sums up. So that would be commander-in-chief then.

There was some retired general who said we haven't had this much security since Abraham Lincoln. So someone did this. But it just... And my understanding is that it's the acting secretary of defense who deploys the federal National Guard in the D.C., you know, in the federal jurisdiction.

And he's a Trump guy. So is Trump the one who's like, send all of the troops? I don't know, man, because, you know, the conspiracy theories are going crazy on both the left and the right. The right is saying that Trump has created a prison that the Democrats will have to walk into in order to inaugurate biden and the left is saying because they're that stupid yeah well yeah right but that's the conspiracy theory but the left has basically the same conspiracy theory that donald trump is gonna box the democrat it's it's it's they believe very much similar it's almost like one person's making both of them up and just sending them through the message boards yeah one one one side's going donald trump's gonna do it hooray the other side's going then he goes to the

left and goes donald trump's gonna do it oh no this is from uh the babylon b not news guarded it's a satire website most popular president in history to be inaugurated in secret behind giant wall guarded by thousands of soldiers yes which as as fake as fake as that is, it's not fake. It's also true by the numbers. I mean, he got the most votes of any president. Well, another thing to really consider here

is that before the raid on the Capitol, we had warnings from the FBI, the NYPD, the Capitol Police that something major was going to happen at the Capitol. And then what happened?

They were mainly unprepared. Now we're getting no specific warnings. The acting defense secretary said there's no intelligence of any upcoming attack or threat and they're but yet they're over prepared that's there's a government there's a conspiracy theory too little too late too much too late excuse me this is this is this is the ongoing conspiracy theory let me just start by saying dude like january 20th is going to come and go i really don't see anything happening i'll

admit this is all very weird stuff we are well outside the confines of what's considered normal. But the conspiracy theory right now is that Donald Trump needed an excuse to mobilize the National Guard in D.C. in an unprecedented manner. And if he just did this, the Democrats would scream he's staging a coup. Trump deploying 25,000 fully armed with authorization for use of lethal force into D.C. For no reason, the Democrats would be like, this is insane. Trump staging a coup. But what happened was Trump supporters stormed into the Capitol.

The Democrats demanded security and were shocked. So then Trump went, OK, and got his 25,000. I don't believe it's on purpose. You know, this is the current iteration of the conspiracy, and these Q people are posting online saying, just you wait and see. Trump's going to do something. Trump's not going to do anything.

Nothing's going to happen. Biden's going to be president. Four years of let's wait and see. Right, right, right. Any day now, the shoes are going to drop. That's their current conspiracy. I will say it's easy to understand why they believe it. Because none of it makes any sense.

Right. It's really strange what's going on like a james bond movie so well so some other people i uh you know have been posting that they think it's just the democrats an excuse it's the establishment saying oh no look what we had to do because of trump supporters more funding and we needed to because what would have happened if they weren't there more money more security more spying etc you know what it looks like to me like the start of a police state where there's a start of there's a there's a constant level of fear like you were just talking about in the media where there's always some impending doom upon you so you have to listen to what the government says yeah there's always some restriction on movement

there's always some looming threat that you have to be defended against and what a way to kick off four years of that with 25 000 troops in the nation's capital in an unprecedented rollout of military force during an inauguration where nobody is going to show up you know i i've mentioned this a million times so for those that are listening forgive me but i want to say it for for you because we never talked about it that what people don't realize when it comes to staging a coup they move they imagine it'll be like a movie where there's going to be like trump going order the troops to stop biden make me president and the troops just listen when in reality a coup actually looks very simple

it's not the soldiers have any idea what's going on. It would just be their commanding officer or the Pentagon saying, hey, go surround the White House, lock it down. There's some security threats. And then they would. If Donald Trump wanted to stage a military coup and use the military to seize power and stop the inauguration, they wouldn't tell the National Guard to do that. They would tell them, stand here and don't let anyone pass. That's it. So I think if there was a real potential for a coup, it would look exactly like this.

Exactly. The soldiers just being like, I don't know. I was told to stand here. Yep. You're not wrong. And a lot of the soldiers that are being interviewed, they're asked, what are you doing here? What are you protecting? And according to Michael Tracy and the reporting he's doing down there, he's like, well them just told me i don't know i'm just doing what i'm told and that's

what a lot of the officers are doing there's a meme going around that i tweeted right now that i think uh hits the nail on the head with our conversation here and it shows all the troops sleeping together in the capital not social distancing and and the headline is if 25 000 troops can do this you can do this and below it is a picture of four people having a nice meal at a restaurant so i think that's another thing that people really need to kind of understand here if we're going through this huge pandemic we're going through this huge health scare why is the government punishing you for for trying to be in a gym or in a restaurant meanwhile there's so many troops sleeping on a marble floor.

Why would the government risk the National Guard during a pandemic? Okay, I get it. You want to protect the elderly, right? Well, the National Guard is one of our first lines of defense. Cramming them all in the Capitol building, sleeping on top of each other. It doesn't quite make sense, does it?

If the Capitol was attacked from the air by a foreign nation on the inauguration day, they're all there? brought that up today it's a it's a very good point why would you put that many people in in harm's way if you're if you're if you're so if you're so afraid of of this looming threat why would you put such a mass of forces in harm's way they're using them like a fence to to keep the water out to keep the flood or they're trying to build a wall of humans to to protect but we're in a drought it's because the elites use your children as cannon fodder or sandbags in this scenario i guess like they're probably going to put them on every street and and every block corner and that's why there's so many of them to every street they have authorization for use of lethal force why with what though it's the fear

they're really afraid they're full they're full kitted yeah okay yeah some of them had their guns and magazines right pelosi was like magazines and bullets take the magazines out and take them away okay but some are still armed or they they're last i checked they were fully kitted okay they were given authorization for use of lethal force and the democrats Democrats were like, nah, we don't want them to have guns like this. So I don't know exactly where we're at right now, but why was that ever a thing? Yeah. What's going on? Yeah.

You know what I mean? Another thing to consider is if you're in the military, your commanding officers and your politicians don't give a damn about you. And if they tell you to sleep on the marble floor surrounded by hundreds of people during a pandemic, you're going to do it because you're going to do what you're told. And I think I just saw today that finally there were some cots delivered, but most of them are still sleeping and using the few limited restrooms inside of the Capitol building. I mean, imagine being a soldier and just and just like yep you're going to be in the side of the capitol for what what this paranoia this fear that's that's again totally made up not a real security threat when they had the security threats they didn't listen to them now there's no security threats according to them officially but yet we're still going

through this huge security theater in order to i i think it's a, it's a larger virtual signal for the bigger police state that they're trying to, to, to boast about in everyone's face. So here's a story from the 14th national guard at Capitol authorized to use lethal force and aftermath of mob. They say on January 12th, 2021 national guardsmen were given authorization to be armed in support of

the U S Capitol to protect the U S Capitol and individual members of Congress and their staff. According to a statement from the D.C. Guard, they go on to say, a defense official confirmed the authorization includes permission for guard troops to use lethal force. So there's pictures of them carrying their guns. And I believe the National Guard,

they have full auto, don't they? Don't they have selective fire? Yeah, of course. I'm just kind of weirded out by the whole thing, man. We're all going to be watching or we're all supposed to be watching this inauguration. And you're going to see this military style inauguration, this police state totalitarian. Like it just it screams Orwell. I mean, it's it's all of them.

Yeah, it's very, very, very peculiar. And the crazy part is the media just ratchets the fear. We get no explanation as to why. The only information that we get are from the few journalists who actually put some good stuff out. But it's just be afraid and shut up. The mainstream media showing no apprehension against an actual police state, an actual lockdown, an actual checkpoint set up, green zone set up, the militarization of the cities of the entire country's capital, and yet no muckraking, no real journalism, no pushback, no questions about it at all.

That's another thing that has you thinking because they were warning, they were screaming about fascism, about totalitarianism coming under donald trump but now it's coming in as it looks very symbolically under joe biden right in front of our face and they're marching around locking locking everything down the bob wires set up like they're literally about to face a horde of zombies that's it's it's like it's like watching day z happening right now it's like it's like that's what they're preparing for. I don't know. Maybe there's something else happening that we don't know about.

I don't think so. But I think this is a larger virtue signal. I think this is them saying, look at us. Look how powerful we are. Don't mess with us because we have all these police officers, all these National Guard that will do whatever we tell them to do. And they will back us. And you can't fight us because of look how many soldiers we have behind us which is that's what's a perfect follow-up to the to the capital which is like you know they had this little incident at the capital that they've blown hugely out of proportion based on a lot of half-truths and and misinformation and then now

they turn around a couple weeks later and say try it again it's like you tickle the nose of the dragon and the whole body goes flailing. They went in and they got the Congress people. AOC said she was afraid for her life, I think, at one point. She said she narrowly escaped death. Yeah, so they're twisted with fear right now. Yes. Did you see the video of the shaman walking into the cell chambers?

With the mall cop behind him? Yep. And there's a guy sitting down on the phone. And the shaman guy goes like hey man good to see you oh that guy is bleeding and the cop's like do you need medical attention he goes oh I'm fine and then the mall cop guy goes any chance I can get you guys to leave

and they were like we're leaving we're leaving and the one guy goes don't worry man I'm making sure nobody messes with anything he's like alright thanks cause this is like the sacred most sacred place like an insurrection of a bunch of just dumb people standing around. Look, I get it. Storming the Capitol was dumb, but you saw the videos of

the cops letting people in. Oh, yeah. I mean, it was all over. It was basically a guided tour. There's one video where the cops disagree with it, but agree with your right to protest. They walk right past them. He lets them in. there's a zero percent chance of insurrection there was a zero percent chance of them being able to overturn overturn the government so calling it a coup d'etat is

absolutely disingenuous and it's an absolute lie i love how they're trying to act like there's ever a possibility that occupying a building would overthrow the government? Like it's not 1600s anymore. You know what I mean? Like they stormed the vault. They control the government papers. Now they're the government. No, it's not how it works. But there were – Congress people were in that building as far as I know.

So if they had wanted to go in there and destroy those people, they probably could have. And that still wouldn't change anything. So there's the line of succession. And then, you know, look, if, God forbid, they actually did horrible things to members of Congress, it would just be indictments. There would be charges of sedition. But it's never happened, like, where a bunch of Congress people were killed in a day in a riot in the United States. That's never happened. But what I'm saying is that there was no scenario where this was an insurrection. Okay.

I mean, hold on. I guess maybe you could call it that if it was like the, I don't know. It's a major stretch. Well, look. That was their intention. Attempted insurrection maybe, but there was never a possibility it would do anything. There's zero possibility the government was anywhere in danger of being overthrown, period. Yeah, Trump has no institutional power.

Mike Pence was even against him so when we're talking about the chances here let's be real here let's be honest yes there's some bad actors yes there were some violent people let's call it out you know however you may want to call it out but but when we learn when we're looking at everything this is this is just security theater in a hyperbolic response to it that that definitely disproportionate, to say the least, from my own personal opinion. The question is, who sent the armed guards there? The Democrats do it because they genuinely believe it's a threat or they want the optics? Well, they seem to be kind of upset by it. And the National Guard follows the orders of Trump for now.

There's two more days. Actually, I think we got about a day and a half, maybe. Ooh, start the countdown. Yeah. Many media organizations have. They literally have countdowns. Can we get one? Just before even coming on the show, I saw a friend that was flying into D.C.

And she talked about how after coming out of the TSA, she had to go through two other personal screenings. They looked through all of her personal possessions in her bags, and there was police officers literally at the gate watching everyone come in. So the security for even flying into Washington, D.C. is absolutely, utterly ridiculous. So again, no threat so far that we know of

that's legitimate. So what is going on here? Well, so we have the countdown. We have it right here. It's a daily mail right on top. 38 hours, 54 minutes, now 53 minutes. And we also have the story. Biden blocks Trump's bid to lift ban on visitors from the UK, Brazil and Europe and says he

will strengthen travel restrictions, dashing hopes of millions who haven't been able to fly to the U.S. since March. All those people who voted for Biden thinking they were going to get something good out of this. It's not going to happen. It's only going to be worse under Joe Biden. Maybe not totally. I think he's going to diminish student loan debt. At least he says he's going to.

There's no diminishing student loan debt. They're stealing someone else's money and paying for someone's bad choices and mistakes. Are they not just not paying back the loan agencies? The big bankers, the loan agencies gets their money. The bankers always get their money. Dude, if they're going to tax us to pay the loan

sharks, that's how government works. There's no free money. Don't pay them back, man. That's insidious that they're charging kids interest it doesn't work you have to not not not in america it doesn't work like that every every banker always always gets their due yep that's that's the first rule of of finance in america so it makes no sense we're talking a lot about you know there's lockdowns and and a few minutes ago we were talking about what you're allowed to know and so remind me of

the story i want to pull this up, get your guys' comments on it. It's from Sarah Carter dot com. Sarah Carter show. CNN segment discusses removing conservative media and forcing everyone into the, quote, same conceptual reality. In this segment with Brian Stelter and Reliable Sources, a former Facebook, I think I think is a Facebook executive, says that they need to basically treat conservatives like they did ISIS and start isolating and removing them. My favorite quote is when this guy says, there are people on YouTube, for example, that have a larger audience than daytime CNN. Huh. That's right.

There's actually a ton of YouTube channels. It sounds like eliminating the competition. Exactly. You know what's funny? That's what it's funny i'm pretty sure the overwhelming majority of career youtube channels get better ratings than cnn like i'm sure okay there's there's a lot of small youtube channels but if you have oh geez if you have a couple hundred thousand subscribers on youtube you're probably doing better than cnn in the key demo right and if you're if you're a channel with a million subs or more, you're definitely.

So it's basically every single channel. I'm pretty sure like Kyle Kalinsky, Jimmy Dore and David Pakman are beating CNN. But CNN is not targeting the left channels. They're targeting the right wing channels. CNN staff, CNN. I don't want to call the guy a reporter. Oh, resident extremist zealot Oliver Darcy is reaching out to cable providers to get Fox News, OAN, and Newsmax banned from their networks, from the cable subscriptions. You can't even buy it. They want to get it pulled.

It's a whole new level of lunacy and censorship because they're not going to stop at Twitter. Project Veritas put out this video clip where we can see they're talking about banning more and more people. They're not going to stop at Twitter, right? Project Veritas put out this video clip where we can see they're talking about banning more and more people. They're not going to stop there because their bread and butter is screaming in your face. That's what they do. I love how they used to rag on Fox News saying Fox News are just scaring old people. Well, I tell you what CNN does. Scares college kids.

Yeah. When I turn on CNN, you know, the only thing I imagine is Don Lemon going, oh! And Brian Sutherland, ah! That's the whole thing. And I'm like just sitting there going like, ah! That's what CNN is. And so what happens when they've already banned everybody, right? So they say they banned 70,000 QAnon-related individuals.

They banned Donald Trump. Uh-oh. What's Oliver Darcy goingcy gonna do be out of a job they already fired jim acosta he's no longer at the white house anymore he's doing beat reporting now i guess so uh oliver darcy says fox news let's get them banned and they won't stop they'll keep going eventually some powerful people are starting losing money and maybe then they'll wake up and realize what's going on i gotta say when we were when we i guess you could say the u.s government removed a segment of the bath party of of hussein's iraqi cabinet and hundreds i don't know thousands of people

were removed from the workforce and not allowed to work that caused the formation of isis when you remove people from the workforce and won't allow them to enter it, they will form a new organization. And those people in Iraq got violent. So I get that they're trying to go after preventing ISIS, but if they do this and they ban all these people, there's a chance that we're going to create something like

ISIS in the United States. Ian, hold on. From the Washington Times. Trump supporters likened to Nazis and Saddam's bath party in cable news demonization duel, Cuomo and Don Lemon. They're talking exactly about this. They should read history

and understand the formation of ISIS. You know what? It seems to me that this is kind of what they want, though. They want to keep pushing people until they can they can make them do something radical so they're they're essentially radicalizing people they're pushing them pushing them pushing them pushing them they're not giving them any any remedy to these

to these oppressive measures and then eventually like you said if you remove people you're going to create this vacuum where something else forms. And usually in that case is something ugly. And you're going to start to radicalize people. But that's – call me crazy, but then you get your, hey, they're domestic terrorists. These angry people here, they're domestic terrorists. Now we need to get them out of here. That's what ISIS was.

We created it and then we had something to fight. There's another way to look at it. It's not that the people are being radicalized.'s that oliver darcy is radicalized okay so again for those that have heard me talk about on my other channels darcy interviewed me several years ago when i said banning the alt-right for their opinions is dangerous free speech means even the speech we don't like this guy working for business insider was like what an interesting thought i should highlight this for a story where am i today four years later same exact position i have not moved i still believe in free speech even for speech i don't like and i'll argue against it but the only let it be spoken where has he gone since that that four years ago when he interviewed me he's now the

cheerleader most high, like the highest profile activist extremist trying to get private companies that can do whatever they want to ban access to certain news channels he doesn't like. So it's not that the people in the middle have become extreme. It's that Oliver Darcy shot so far left from his point of view is a bunch of far right extremists far right from him. And he's he's too radicalized to realize that he's the one who's been pushed to the extreme. Yeah, well, exactly. They're they're taking a hard left.

And in doing so, these people that are regular, normal, everyday people who fall moderate right or even moderate left now in in order to defend your position right because in politics we always tend to compromise in order to defend that position they have to pull hard to the right or they're going to lose ground you know because if you start compromising with somebody who's going far left and you're still arguing the middle road you're going to wind up that's what's happening you're going to wind up up there unless you start to pull back harder. Yeah. And it's. But what's happening is that conservatives and moderates, regular Americans aren't becoming

extreme. They're in fact policing the extremes of the right. They are. You look at Steve King when he made comments about what positive comments about white nationalism, they pulled him off all his committees, and then he got primaried by the Republican Party and he's out. And now, because the Republicans were like, we don't want

none of that. And the moderates were like, alright, that's cool. The left doesn't do that. So as long as conservatives keep trying to be reasonable and play by the rules and the left won't, you're always going to lose ground. You're kind of like a leftist that's trying to keep the left from going crazy. Right.

Well, I would disagree with you, Tim. I think Oliver Darcy is doing God's work. I think all information should be conformed and unified by special interest talking points, by the richest people in our society who know what's best for us. And I think it's great that they already on YouTube are promoted in the algorithm when you search news you see them first the next video that usually plays is them whatever you're watching i think it's great that they have this unfair market competition since they know what's best for you and where would we all be if it wasn't for cnn's top article today on cnn about, I'm not kidding you, this is the headline here.

CNN released an article saying, this is Joe Biden's inauguration party playlist that you're going to play for your inauguration party. Oh, I did see that. Yeah. I didn't listen, though. Yeah. They're literally releasing the playlist for you to celebrate joe biden's inauguration give me a couple of what were they i didn't know we could find it wait i don't know about the one you had from today but i do have joe biden and kamala harris drop a playlist for

your inauguration watch party yes that's it yeah where would we be if we didn't have hard-hitting real news like this uh that's forced jammed down our throats. Where? As a civilization. Hold on. Hold on. Don't you want to be lulled into a calming, ignorant sleep? Yes.

I want to play my music and celebrate the poor old man who doesn't know where he is. Who's represented by all the special interests. Ignorance is bliss. It's bliss. Yeah. You know, listen. Listen. Let me ask you a question.

If there was a meteor or a comet or whatever about to rip through the earth and just wipe it out no no no that's too quick let's say it's like a it's like a giant it's an astro or meteor about to hit the earth and when it does sky will burst into flames and you'll have three minutes left to live as you watch the fireball coming towards you would you rather watch and know what's happening or would you rather be chilling in your basement headphones on playing skyrim or something no i want to get i want to own a good seat yeah i want to see it too yeah yeah i'd go up on the i'd go up on the roof and just be like i'd crack a beer and just be like maybe the sd card will survive that's

kind of how i'm going to watch the inauguration actually staring at the sunset like it's the end yes no but i mean look a lot of people would prefer to be in the basement headphones on playing video games totally ignorant to the world collapsing around them and just be vaporized instantly there's a lot of people not me i'm not one of it's almost like it's like you know in the matrix you know which pill do you want a lot of people would be like nah i'm take the blue pill i don't have i can't do the head in the sand thing it's part of of why this COVID and the food supply thing is driving me insane. Because I think that it's a hard cognitive dissonance for people to think that maybe the animal fat that they're eating, the meat and the cheese and the cream, the milk is going to contain that stuff or hyper exacerbate its growth in your system. And dear God, don't stick your head in the sand.

It's right in front of us. Yeah, well, they want to keep you afraid. They want to keep you in a state where you're at a low vibrational kind of energetic field where you're always panicking, always freaking out. And when you're in that kind of highly emotional state, you're very easily to be manipulated. You're very easily able to be controlled by other people coming in and saying, I have the perfect solution. I'll keep you safe. Look how strong I am. Look how many National Guardsmen I have behind me. I know

it's better for you if you just give me everything you have. And that's exactly what's happening right now with this latest move by Joe Biden blocking people from traveling. There's going to be more blocking. There's going to be more lockdowns. And there's going to be more division pushed on by the mainstream media that wants to keep you in this fear state of the average common man. They want you afraid of your neighbor. And another thing that I wanted to address when you guys were talking before about this larger division issue, the Washington Post literally released a piece about multiracial whiteness, trying to explain how people of color voted for and supported Donald Trump.

They used Enrique from the Proud Boys as the photo for that. They're making up new terms to represent whiteness, which is, again, just in their lexicon right now that they use as a little piñata that they beat the crap out of

since they get candy out of because so many few people are afraid to stand up for each other. they're getting away with this essentially because of our acquiescence and our participation in the fear and hatred of one another listen what's so it's so insidious about that article is that what they're doing with saying multi-racial whiteness is that whiteness represents negative traits of people, which has been going on for a long time. It's been going on for a long time.

But what they're doing is they're saying these negative behaviors are inherent to white people and non-white people can have these behaviors, too. You see what they're doing? They're basically they're not saying that people are white. They're saying whiteness is just a word that represents bad. Right. Exactly. So so there you go.

Supremacy, white supremacy, all that stupid nonsense, which makes no sense, especially when you see the Boogaloo Boys. There's a video of these people in D.C. I think it's in D.C. I'm not sure. No, maybe it's Richmond. And they're talking to Boogaloo Boys and they're like, you were with white supremacists. And they're like, no, we're not.

We've never been. And they're like, yeah, you were down there in D.C. during the six. And they're like, no, we weren't. They were Boogaloo Boys. They're wearing Hawaiian shirts. And they're like, we're not we've never been like yeah you were down there in dc during the six and they're like no we weren't they weren't boogaloo boys they're wearing hawaiian shirts and they're like that's not us which there was what two million people in dc it was every single one of those are white supremacist yes you know because i was there and i saw saw a lot of multiracial whiteness down there yeah and it's that's that but it's so absurd that that even gets passed like like who who who reads that and actually looks at that and says, yeah, yeah. Really?

This is hard-hitting. Hard-hitting journalism. I'm afraid, like, Cori Bush. I got to meet her because I've been reading her Twitter and she's so racist. She's nuts. It's not about being racist. She's an extremist. She's an extremist.

So, listen. What is an extremist? Everybody will give you definition. I'll give you my simple definition. A moderate, a pragmatist, a stoic, rational, a leftist, a right wing individual are not necessarily extremists. A leftist will say something like, I believe in universal health care and, you know, workers, worker control of the means of production to varying degrees. Let's have a conversation about implementing this. A free market capitalist or an ANCAP is not an extremist. They'll say, I believe in the free market.

Let's have a conversation about how I move in that direction. What people like Cori Bush say is expel all of the Republicans who dared speak up, you know, in defense of Donald Trump. That's extremism. An extremist says we must have communism by any means necessary. That's extreme. She is very, very extreme. Yeah. Her pinned tweet is expel the Republican members of Congress who incited the white supremacist attempted coup. That's insane. And so, you know, it's funny is they like to rag on the QAnon members of Congress or whatever. And I'm like,

sure. Well, show now complain about the extremist, conspiracist Democrats. They're there. There's no white supremacist conspiracy going on. It's not real. But they live in a paranoid, delusional state and the media props it up. There's probably, there's a class conspiracy

where people, very wealthy people, want to stay wealthy and they're okay with leaving poor people poor. There is that. Of course. That does exist. Well, it's always been about that. And then they bring the racism element in

to keep the lower socioeconomic statuses fighting amongst each other instead of looking at where the actual problem is. Because the only oppression is socioeconomic oppression. In this country, yeah, of course, you're going to have your outliers, but the majority of people don't experience racism on a daily basis. If you look at the institutions that cause pain, suffering, poverty, inequality, it's not your neighbor that believes in a different political opinion than you. It's a larger institution that's telling you the problem is your DNA, your melatonin. That's the

issue right there. And they convinced people that somehow this is justified, which is absolutely ridiculous. It's insane. And it's driving us down a slippery slope where we are fighting each other instead of realizing the bigger picture right in front of us. Well, it was conveniently around Occupy Wall Street. Yeah, I was just thinking that. Yeah, we've talked about it quite a bit. The bankers were packing their bags.

They were ready. They were like, the jig is up. They're going to audit the Federal Reserve. We're done. Warren Buffett was giving away a ton of money. Giving away. I'll do air quotes. A ton of money.

Mark Zuckerberg donated. I'm doing air quotes. Tons of money. And it wasn't because they had a change of heart. Like the Grinch's heart grew three sizes that day. It was because they were like, when the pitchforks come out, it's coming for us. Conveniently, people like Mark Zuckerberg, who were in control of social media, started feeding identity politics to everybody. And then there are people who don't like being insulted based on race.

And there are people who like insulting based on race. And boy, did they whip them into a ludicrous frenzy. There was a little bit of like racist or identity politics at Occupy. And then like the news organization was like, oh, that's good. Get that. Get that. White guy says something about black guy. Run with that one.

Well, they've always seen it. And you don't see it. No, no. It's because these I think it's more a generational thing. I don't think it was necessarily like a rich guy snapped his fingers and said, you know, aha, identity politics is a solution. I think it's that this millennial, younger millennial generation have been raised into this cult probably going you know influenced very heavily by colleges and now they believe an insane cult

like dogma that doesn't make sense at all in the middle east and they're spreading around they try to make us afraid of brown people with this stupid muslim attack in the middle it was all about let's go after the muslims you Muslims. 9-11, the Afghanistan, Iraq. It's the Muslim. There was this Muslim fear. It's always a scapegoat. It's always a scapegoat. Yeah, you can just follow that all the way back. You can follow that to Germany. You can follow that to the Russians.

Look, even Trump was finding his target audience and what he was concerned about. Immigration is a problem. Islamic terror is a problem problem and people were scared of these things and so he used them my issue is that they say donald trump is a is a is a uh what did they say he was uh what's the word i'm thinking of i can't think of the word i can't think of a lot of words demagogue he was choosing and singling out these people as the problem i'm like so are you you

you you you crazy crazy people the hypocrisy of the left of the left never ends i mean that's that's that's their calling card is is they double standard yeah they'll call you out on it and then they'll do the exact same thing in the next sentence i know the problem is when trump would say something like we're gonna have a muslim ban in this country and they're like aha he admitted it and then he like changed it so that there's like there's actually other countries in the ban. It was a recommendation from the Obama administration. Republicans criticize him.

You get criticism from various Republicans being like, I don't agree with Donald Trump. How dare he say these things? And the left, meanwhile, does literally the same thing. And no one calls them out. They don't break ranks. No, they don't. The right does all the time. Dude, people were so afraid of Muslims in like 2003.

Yes, they were. Yep. That's deep in the psychology of the people that are 20 years old today. They were born into it like it was normal. Oh, now they're running for Congress and like making these weird laws. And there's this reverse racism stuff. Well, no, no, no. The people who are scared of Muslims aren't the left. I don't know who it is anymore. It was all of us. I mean, I wasn't. Well, no, no, no. The people who are scared of Muslims aren't the left.

I don't know who it is anymore. It was all of us. I mean, I wasn't. No, no, no. The left are the people who heard you saying that right now and were like, I have to stop these Nazi Republicans who hate Muslims. They hear you saying that and they grow up thinking, if only I could stop the racists.

We're like the multicultural. With racism. Right. With worse racism. Yeah. That's the best part of it is their solution is always the problem in and of itself. The house is on fire. Quick, throw fuel into it.

We used to burn it down completely. We would like sit at Taco Bell as teenagers and talk about reverse racism. We talk about like. There's no such thing as reverse. I know there's not. And I thought there was when I was a kid. I was like, OK, affirmative action is allowing just black people to get jobs that they're not qualified for so that's a form of reverse racism against well hold on hold on hold on and we would get so angry about it no no no hold on that's not

affirmative action i got in the 90s was that not affirmative action is not that someone who's not qualified as getting a job they would give it based on race and not not qualifications they would they would move down the the list of qualified people until they found a certain race. There are certain quotas that haven't been met. So yours was a little harsh. In doing that, you open up the possibility that you will skip somebody who is more qualified because you have a quota to meet. So it's a side effect of what's a good, I mean, I think that policy comes from a good place, but it's one of those things that it

sounds better as an idea and you can't execute it without. Well, look, the path to hell is paved with good intentions, you know? Always. So here's the way it would work. Let's say you have 100 people and they all take an entrance exam and the top 10 are mostly white people because the United States is mostly white. They would say, OK, the one to OK, white person, white person, white person. OK, we're going to skip all these. Where's the first Latino? Ah, there we go. Seven.

He gets the first slot. So now you've skipped six qualified individuals, in fact, more qualified because you want to have a race in you know a particular race in your system i know now that because of slavery a lot of african americans were dumped into our economy with zero and so there was this higher wealth uh bracket for the the people that weren't african-american you know lighter skin but and so they're more educated by because of the the economy don't i know that now no but don't forget the end of slavery wasn't the end of the problems because they were like the south after the civil war didn't want to be occupied by the north so they did everything in their power to obstruct the the 13th 14th 15th amendments the right to vote

there absolutely was tons of racist policies all the way up into jim crow and the civil rights era now that was all the democrats mind, which is kind of funny. And now the same political party that pushed racism is pushing racism again today. Do you think we'll get past? Maybe this is kind of an open question that we'll get past the racism. When we stop listening to politicians. Yeah, I think your average everyday person doesn't give a shit what color you are. I think I think that's a pretty broad statement, but I think that applies to most people.

And I think the fairest statement ever said about Trump was that he doesn't care whether you're white, black, Latino, gay, straight. He cares if you can make him money. To clarify, you said ship like a vessel on the water. Correct. Yes. OK, very, very good. But but but it's too much. Race is too much of an effective divider by the elites that's been working for them very well.

And as you said, if people stop paying attention to all the people pushing on us and actually being racist, I think then it could finally work. And I think there's a very small window, but it's one of the biggest effective battering batter battering rams against the populations from actually realizing that they have a lot more in common than they don't could we potentially end on a positive note and talk about what's happening in tunisia holland and denmark with all the protests as well as the bigger movements in italy and poland the mass riots and mass arrests well on a positive

note showing that you know in in italy and Poland, there's people coming together and saying enough of these lockdowns. We're going to open up in unison where there's too many of us, where you can't shut us all down. I think that's a positive step. protest against the lockdowns uh that that are huge but yet have not garnered a lot of media attention which which is why i think we should talk about them on a kind of lighter more positive note that there is some kind of you want to you want to you want to talk positive you know we're gonna have to like try hard to find a story from a news outlet well because look even if we want to be positive on what's going on with covid the story we have here from dw from uh about tunisia 600 people arrested the army has been deployed after violent protests these people are frustrated over what's going on the lockdowns

and so they're coming out and the state's coming out and beating 600 people that's a massive arrest in the netherlands 142 people got arrested so sure i guess there guess there's an optimism, there's a hope. People are starting to say enough of this, standing up and saying it didn't work, it's not working, and we will not suffer any longer. That's good. It gives me hope when I see people standing up for what they believe in. It is. But there's a crackdown from the state across the board. And I don't know if we have any reason to believe that they're going to give in to the demands of these angry individuals. Yes, but we can't give up all hope. And I think when we see these issues, we have to cover them honestly and fairly.

So maybe my wording wasn't the best in that particular instance and involved a lot of personal stuff from what I've seen throughout last year and what's unfolding this year. But talking about your story, you're still kicking. You're still pushing forward. And I think you should answer this question more than me, since, of course, you're still fighting the fight rather than us just kind of calling it and observing it. I am optimistic, actually. I've been doing this alongside my partner, Frank, for eight months now. We opened on May 18th.

So pretty much eight months to the day. And there is a growing sense of rebellion and a growing sense of defiance from everybody. You know, when we first opened up, we had a ton of support, more support than we ever imagined. But it was mainly from the right. It was mainly Trump supporters. It was mainly conservativesened um the people you know when we first opened who just really weren't interested in the story or didn't think it was that important at the time started to get involved um and then as this has continued to draw out we've gotten a lot of support from people who are typically moderate lefts and even people who identify a little bit you know harder to the left i tell the story a lot i had a guy come into the to the gym bought a t-shirt and um you know i'm packing it up for him and i said thank you for your support and he uh he looked at me and he said

i want you i want to be honest with you and i said sure he said in the beginning of this i thought you and frank were were wrong you know to to say it nicely. He didn't say it so nicely. He said, I thought you guys were greedy. I thought you were doing it for your own selfish reasons. I thought you were being careless. And you really pissed me off. And he said, the only reason I followed the story was because you really pissed me off. And he said, I trash talked to you online. You know, any negative article I could find, I would he said, I trash talked you online. Any negative article I could find, I would share it. I would argue in your comment section.

And he said, I'm here today because I've watched this continue for five months now or whatever it was. And he said, I support you. He said, and I'm still a Democrat. He said, I think at the time he said, I'm still going to vote for Biden. He said, but what's happening to you is not okay. He said, and I disagree with it. And that is just continuing to grow and grow and grow to where I think it's scary because I think we're going to see more of that that you're seeing in Tunisia where people are going to start hitting their capacity for being pushed around. And you can only say, please, Mr. Politician, let me open my business.

Please, Mr. Politician, let me go back to work. Please, Mr. Politician, I need a stimulus check more than $600. Please, Mr. Politician, don't send $700 billion overseas. We need it here. Before people start getting increasingly frustrated. And that's a Pandora's box. You're going to open something where change is going to happen one way or another. And it's probably not going to be a smooth change.

You're going to see some bumpy occurrences during that. But I think the people who are frustrated are in the right. And I think that they do have a right to be. And I wish that there was a better way to settle it. I wish everybody would just do what they're doing in Italy. And what we did, we opened. We're open no matter what. No matter what you do to us, we are going to open. Unless we are in jail, we are opening. And as soon as we get out, we're going to open again. That's been our plan from day one. And if everybody does that and doesn't get extreme and doesn't get violent and doesn't get destructive, then we win. And it is that simple because there aren't enough jail cells.

There aren't enough sheriffs. There aren't enough handcuffs. There aren't enough squad cars for everybody. And it's a house of cards. It's an illusion based on fear. It's fear and control. And as soon as everybody turns off the TV, stops listening to the politicians and says enough is enough, it's it's an illusion based on fear it's fear and control and as soon as everybody turns off the tv stops listening to the politicians and says enough is enough it's over they can't

enforce it yeah do you know what started the arab spring no there was a fruit vendor who was being just harassed by cops told he couldn't sell his fruit they would confiscate his fruit and he just wanted to run his little fruit vendor business, but they wouldn't let him. So one day he went in front of a government building, and he lit himself on fire. And then the whole country, Tunisia, erupted into mass rioting, which swept across North Africa into the Middle East and removed some dictators, all because the government, because a couple of cops would not let some guy just run his business. I think it's fair to say what we're going through right now is sort of an information war or a larger consensus war. And once you lose hope, you essentially lose. That's why I'm always personally cheering on the underdog, and maybe that's why I'm not unbiased. It is a biased perspective where I come from sometimes, but at least I acknowledge it. And I think more

of us should be willing to do that, especially when it comes to kind of calling these larger things that are happening right now, because information is key and it could lead to a lot of amazing, incredible developments. But once you try to censor, once you try to close down this kind of wider highway of speech, that's really when we get into very troubling territories of people using and abusing it against the weakest and the smallest in our society and hurting them tremendously. And that's why when you're doing something that's helping people get healthy, helping people work out, get in a position where their immune system is activated, and then you're the one that's being targeted, you're the one that they're trying to take down it's just ridiculous and i know and and then i

know they took away your money but there's also i don't know if you want to get into this or talk about this there's also other alternatives with cryptocurrencies i don't know if you want to personally talk about that or not and i respect your decision either way yeah no that's it it's this whole thing has been just a game of kind of staying on our feet. You know, it's when you take on City Hall, it's a 12 round fight. And it's it's it's the 12 round Rocky story where you're going to get your face bashed in for 11 rounds straight. And all you got to do is stay on your feet long enough to get to the end to where you inspire enough people um and and you've made enough of a splash and an impact that it's a domino effect and and you get to the end because all it takes is that you know in the rock story takes that that one you know bob and weave and that one good punch and and you can take the whole thing down but it's it's not falling into the traps that they're going to set for you and they they want that they want the violence they want the unrest they're going to set for you. And they want that. They want the violence.

They want the unrest. They want people to go crazy because then they can say, look at them. Look at these crazy people over here. And that's what happened at the Capitol. Whether we have all the details or not, that's – and they'll use that against you. So it's – you have to stay calm and you have to stay optimistic. So that's been my saving grace all the way through that. And I have a lot of people behind me who reinforce that quite a bit because it is a frustrating experience when you're dealing with somebody who is actively undermining and ruining your life.

The best thing is to just continue to take the high road. And that's been our strategy all the way through. So crypto is just the next thing for us you know we've we've done everything we possibly can and we've we'll continue to exhaust every single resource without stepping into that trap that they want you know so yeah crypto crypto has been a good option for us and it's going to be the way we we move forward in the future to protect ourselves from from more oversight i mean, excuse me, more overreach. That's an excellent endorsement of why cryptocurrencies are so powerful.

it's low or io why haven't you quit sites like twitter i feel like people are hypocritical when they talk about hitting big tech in the pockets but do nothing about it love y'all well i've talked about twitter and how i've basically i no longer use it in a business capacity i used to post videos now i just kind of troll and just post you know sarcasm and you know i'm facetious and stuff but yeah i'm tweeting less and less and i'm probably just going to follow news organizations and slowly just not pay attention to it because these companies are just off the rails man yeah you just kind of let those things rot out i think you know let them run their course and use them for whatever they're useful for in the meantime i think twitter's in trouble i think they're gonna go because without trump what's the point of being on there you know

boring yeah let's see dr roller gator says two years since vajaya and jack told you they were going to work on their suspension policy they have made no effort to fix it they want to keep it broken so they have arbitrary control free dr roller gator gator did nothing wrong adam jeremiah says tim love the show and i'm a new ish listener thank you for being a voice of reason in uncertain times rock on appreciate it thank you very much spork which says to be fair 137 000 is worth about a loaf of bread for which there will be lines cough that's a good thing cough in 2021 you know i was wondering actually there there's some speculation we could actually hit hyper deflation because nobody has any money it's it's so they're

printing money like crazy but it's all sitting in the hands of the ultra wealthy it's all funneling up to walmart so when no one has any money then we get deflation and so that what that will do is this is really scary the people who hold u.. debts will have more power over the U.S. labor market. So countries like China. Let's say China has a dollar, and now you don't, and you're desperate. They can get you to do more and more labor for them for that dollar because you can't get it anywhere else. So that's actually pretty scary. All right, let's see.

Zab says, Ian Smith, here's the story of Rhodesia. Do you understand that reference no i i have a general understanding of rhodesia but i don't know what he's trying to say governor of rhodesia ian smith oh yeah yeah yeah i think so because when you google ian smith there's a governor someplace oh there you go it's not you so kiwi says look up nick kumalatsos did i say kuma kumalatsos i pronounce it right he went through a similar situation in his state and he's got a big youtube following he now has a pretty awesome liberty-minded youtube channel cool oh what does this one say tony rogers says i bet my super chat won't get read by the way America is turning into the book slash movie the giver well it got read

Chael Brenton says Ian how do you feel about rotating Deca Primo and EQ in the offseason which Ian that's out of my wheelhouse I just I listen to experts when it comes to that I don't have opinions on those things Gabe

Tedder says Tim I love will of the people. I rock it all the time. Also, did you know that Stefan Molyneux likes your work? I like you even more now. I did not know that. I briefly met the guy one time. He got nuked from YouTube and just,

just the purge is, is real. And eventually they'll ban everybody. He's awesome, man. I've known him since way back in the day. Yeah. We used to make videos in like 2008 on YouTube. Great philosopher took a lot of his stuff out of context and you

know being a philosopher you can draw the ire of authorities when you question almost everything that's what they did to socrates they ended up poisoning the guy or making drink poison i don't i actually have not really seen much of uh stefan's videos question everything i saw i saw one he did on ahmed aubrey but that was about it i know that the media defames them but i don't take the media at their word when they accuse someone of being whatever because they say the same thing about me or whatever but uh in terms of will of the people for those who don't know i have a music video check it out it's called will of the people it's actually one of the top videos on this channel surprisingly so thank you all so much for listening to it the music video is a short film so you

should definitely check it out. It's good fun. All right, let's see what we got here. Kyle Canuck says, millennials saying just print money are doing to Gen Z what the boomers did to them. And eventually the house of cards collapses. Isn't that right? Ale Bruds says, Tim, you should talk to LaWai86 and Serpentsa, two Westerners who speak Chinese and have lived, traveled through mainland China. They highlight the good things about China while also calling the CCP on their atrocities. I watch their channel. They're pretty good.

I think they're the motorcycle guys, right? Yeah. They're really good. I like them. Love them. Justin Bookman says, Once again, New Jersey confirms why people hate it. Adam... Wait, wait. Ian? Good to see you again, you absolute alpha. Luke,

can you recommend any good pistols? I've been thinking about a revolver. Tim, I just got my Harumph shirt. Can't wait to wear it when I get home in two weeks.

Hello, Litz. Awesome. Did that guy call me Adam? Yes, he did. Adam is a true alpha, by the way. I'm more of an omega. An omega?

Yeah, I'm the omega man. For the previous comment, there's a reason they call it dirty jersey. That's just from a New York City perspective. And second, I'm the Omega man. For the previous comment, there's a reason they call it Dirty Jersey. That's just from a New York City perspective. And second, I love a Glock 19X. That depends on also your hand size and what you're doing with it.

That's my personal preference. A lot of people like 1911s. What's the bread I just got? Do you remember which one it was? I forgot the exact one. You got a lot of stuff. Did I not? I don't know exactly which one you're referencing, but you got a lot of stuff so i don't know exactly which ones you're

referencing for there's a lot of them we went uh we went target shooting and i got uh smith and wesson victory the fun little 22 but it just jams too much and we tried different ammo and it's just the nature of 22 i guess is is frustrating but it's fun it's fun when it works you know but uh what was i gonna say i was gonna something whatever all right there we go let's see malia ilian says gym man i need to buff up how to stay motivated get your ass to the gym no motivation um motivation is fleeting it's dedication that you're looking for and dedication starts with one day at a time and that that might sound whimsical and and nice and fluffy and and but that's that's it you win one day at a time and that that might sound whimsical and nice and fluffy, but that's it.

You win one day at a time. And that means just get up, go to the gym. Did you find that on Pinterest? Discipline. You know what I was going to say about New Jersey? We were running this business out of New Jersey. New Jersey had a great opportunity for a budding new media organization. And boy, did they do everything to just drive new industry out of the state.

New Jersey thrives on destroying itself. They vote for it. It's the California model. Yep. Let's see. What is this? J of Legend says, Sorry, Tim, you are wrong.

18 U.S. Code 241. Conspiracy against rights two plus people infringing on someone's rights is punishable after 10 year felony it really needs to start being applied about assembly speech and guns yeah i was just thinking that that's civil rights these people that are getting banned and having their civil their freedom of speech taken away i know they're private companies but it seems like a violation of the problem the problem with a lot of that title us code is that the and we've had a lot of people approach us with that where where it's constitutional law you bring that in front of the courts and they don't listen yeah so it's there's a there's a wealth of information about it but nobody knows

how to execute it you know and and you walk this stuff into the courtroom and they'll dismiss it like it's nothing. Why is that? I think the answer would be the courts are just corrupt to the core, honestly. Because they're civil courts and the Constitution stuff is federal so they don't deal with it? It's administrative law versus constitutional law. And what we essentially – at least from my understanding is that we operate on administrative law um and if you go in there citing these constitutional codes which are valid um the courts just pretend like they don't hear you but i mean this is this is stuff that's solid i mean it's and it's it's it's there for a reason to protect us against stuff like this

but it doesn't really seem to execute very well michael lopez says these guys need a legal defense go fund me the government can't touch maybe tim and friends can set it up and accept the money and use it to pay the lawyer this is psychotic they need to win the case well you guys have collected donations and you found a more secure way to collect yeah we're just gonna go we're gonna go two routes um the money that we that we get into our bank account, we'll take out in cash. We'll keep a nice, neat ledger for all of that. And we'll be writing cashier's checks for all of our bills. We'll just do it the old-fashioned way.

And then people who want to contribute via crypto, and if we want to save some money and put it away, we'll put it into a crypto wallet or into the market. And we'll take it out when we need it. There you go alan law says squat two times body weight and a bunch of life's problems go away the mindset gained along the way improves every aspect of life gyms make better people who will go on to make a better world also high bar squats are for commies is that true first part is true um no he's got a point it's you know physical fitness and getting in the gym and doing challenging physical tasks translate to mental toughness yeah um so absolutely 100

i recommend that's another thing any challenging task like that where where you're you're forced to focus you're forced to work very hard day in day out it it teaches you a lot and you walk away with a lot mentally from that um which is funny because coincidentally those are all the things that were not allowed during covid the things that make you stronger yeah like sun and vitamin d but that's another story and usually it's unhealthy people that are usually the mean people just saying zanzibar says your chat is full of statist crybabies they whine that you don't take a stand but are here dismissing the boog boys that went out and did something lol this is why our republic is lost well we can we can rag i suppose to an extent on the boogaloo boys but uh it's true they

went out and they protested they they did it peacefully and they expressed themselves and they gave the one guy read his statement that left and right agree the extraction of you know the wealth the working class and all stuff they're not wrong you know they're not wrong so it's that i think it's pointless to i think it's funny that they call the proud boys you know bootlicking statist cucks or whatever but i think the rate what we talked about we hit on this several times is all all all people basically the overwhelming majority we agree the politicians are crooks ripping us off so what do we do so long as we keep arguing like trump is the answer no bernie's the answer well then you're the bad guy and we're gonna fight now that's well then we'll be they're chasing our tail forever yeah yeah yeah the the rich people uh well the powerful at least i

shouldn't say the rich people because there's a lot of rich people who are totally oblivious but the powerful elites the ultra wealthy i don't rich people because there's a lot of rich people who are totally oblivious. But the powerful elites, the ultra wealthy. I don't even like calling them elite because I feel like they're doing their job poorly. Yeah, that's true. You know, using lethal force to guard your wealth because you're not smart enough to make it yourself. Let's see. Scott Hale says, remember the scene in Braveheart when England hires some Scots to fight Scots. Then they charge each other, then shake hands and give hugs.

Then they all attack england soldiers i feel like england is the government now interesting lanius shrike says the biden administration will will be pure munchausen syndrome his choice of words has already demonstrated that he has no real desire to heal as a nation he wants the gashes in america's political sphere to become gangrenously infected gangrenously infected yeah bryce levine says if everyone started referring to nancy pelosi as nancy trump do you think her life goals would be complete i don't know should we call her nancy trump start a hashtag for that one darth ribbett says biden is going to reorganize the Republic into the first galactic empire on the 20th.

The first global. Because I don't think we've actually had a global empire ever. We've had empires, but not the entirety of the planet, right? I don't know. Atlanta seems to have been one. I could be wrong about that, but they fought ancient Greece. I'm not sure that's a real place. Oh, it's definitely real.

The Eye of Mauritania. I read about that, but I've also read why it's not true. What'd you read that said it wasn't true? I watched a video on it. That's that spherical shape in the Sahara, right? That's crazy, yeah. But then I read a bunch of breakdowns saying it's just people are just trying to make it. Google map Eye of Mauritania.

We got to talk more about that kind of stuff, too. Yeah, it looked like it was like, what I've read is that it was created by like a volcanic underground eruption that caused a ripple in the earth and then people settled on it and that the water had kind of, and then they, it looks like you can see like a straight line. It looks like they cut and carved their way into the ocean, the water, because the water was much higher back then and created a channel to flood the ring and then created like an island paradise. Pretty interesting looking. Yeah. nothing like it on earth kitty laking says please ask the gym owner how many covid cases they have tracked spoiler alert zero compliance

and passivity are dragging this nightmare out live free yeah i see tucker carlson asking you that question all the time he loved he loves every time he loves asking that question. He gets it in every single time. How many cases have you had so far with his squint? Well, I think people who are healthy and exercising and getting sunlight are less likely to get sick or at least notice. Yeah. And it's not that there's no cases. I mean, people are contracting it. We have people who are nurses.

They get it. They get tested. They stay away from the gym. There's no outbreaks linked to the facility. That's the important part is that people are going to get it. They're going to get it somewhere in some way or another. But if you can reduce the spread, that's when you're doing your part. Jeff, Brian of Telford says, I stand for beer, bullets, bourbon, and God.

Not necessarily in that order, but this powder keg's close. Yeah, man. Gareth Green says, Ian Smith was the prime minister of Rhodesia during its unrecognized independence. It was kind of white supremacist, but mild next to South Africa. Blake Green says, just bought an Atlas gym sweatshirt and hat. Love you guys. Spin the gorilla vitality. Yeah, I don't have anything to spin, but I'll do it with my hands. bought an Atlas gym sweatshirt and hat. Love you guys. Spin the gorilla vitality.

Yeah, I don't have anything to spin, but I'll do it with my hands. So what is your gym? Your gym's called Atlas Gym? Attilis. Yes. Attilis. I got it wrong. Cool. What does Attilis mean?

I think it's a spin off of Attila the Hun. We inherited the name. The Huns get a bad rep, man. I think they were actually not the horrible people the Romans made them out to be. Well, history is always written by the winners so yeah oh here's good news dell men says hey tim want to end on a positive note flint michigan has had clean water for almost a year reported by politico on december 23rd 2020 cool i saw that that's great good news a little overdue but still good news yeah father of fatality says the only song that should be in the inauguration playlist

should be will of the People. That is correct and true. It was 100%. I think at some point, I think it's at like 700,000 views. So you should definitely check it out and put it on all your playlists. I don't know what's going on. We were trying to get it on Spotify and stuff or whatever. I'm not staking my entire career on writing a song. I just wanted to make the video, tell the story, have fun.

Let's see. The Phoenix of Liberty says Tim loved the show but come to different conclusions will the people rocks if it gets regular play daily on my live 365 station anarchy radio luke where is your new objectivist girl objectivist girl huh i don't know i don't know what that means you named your dog. Yeah. That might be to what they're referring to. Was it because you're a fan of the Greek mythology? Was Atlas Greek? Is that Greek mythology? Yeah, I think so.

Atlas was the king of Atlantis. He was the first king of Mor... Atlas holds up the earth. Same guy, yeah. He was the first king of Mauritania, which is where the eye of Mauritania is. And then they named Atlantis apparently after the guy. Really? Well, there's also Atlas Shrugged,

and then the geographical Atlas. All named after that one guy, the King of Mortania. It's just a cheap, easy name. Cheap. Which is coincidentally my dog's name, too. Oh, cool. Whoa. Royal Wolf says,

I must correct a previous assertion. High bar is the superior squat of gorillas. Yes, correct. That's correct. Fact check true. Bump that guy up in the chat. Let's see here. I see a two of two, but where's the one of two?

Oh, I hate that. Yeah. Oh, there we go. It's right there. Catoriously Wise says, Tim and Luke, I don't think multiracial whiteness is talking about white in terms of race. I think woke use white to mean individualism, classical liberalism. Sargon mentioned the existence of political white and black with capital W and B. And the more I think about it, the more I think I think woke are trying to move political white from the extremists to classical liberals.

Right. extremists to classical liberals right well why would you take a political ideology or behavior or or concept and then associate it with all of one race of people that's like really racist let's see uh where did we just go joe spinella says you don't cite constitutional law you cite under articles of the bill of rights you're a man suing another man you lose all the time under statute civil law you fight as a man under common law of court of record interesting see all this stuff it's very very hard to you know i would love if somebody wants to shoot me an email and and break it down in in like meathead terms then i will be happy to execute you'll get a lot of people responding to you but not a lot of meathead terms, then I will be happy to execute that. You'll get a lot of people responding to you, but not a lot of meathead terms. Yeah.

Gareth Green says, Alpha Ian, are you single? No, I'm not. Royal, uh, Kevin Collins says, need to watch Eric Weinstein on Glenn Beck's show from two days ago. Eric is absolutely correct. Recommend to everyone. He tends to be. He's a smart fella. Let's see.osh branson says i developed dedication by simply going to the gym even if i sat there for an hour i was there then start working out not every step needs a leap

that's right it's very very true it's this it's discipline it's you you have to listen you know are are you are you uh strong you simply need to choose to be. That's really it. And what kind of diet do you recommend to people before they go to the gym and after and things like that? It's highly individual. Everybody's different. What works for me won't work for you. 10 pounds of chicken for breakfast.

I can eat a cheeseburger mid-workout and be totally fine. Other people, that would send them to the bathroom puking. I would eat sugar and go and get devastatingly fatigued and because you hate every minute so overload you overload your blood sugar and you crash very hard you know mid-workout um but as far as what the individual there was saying it is it's people especially newcomers have this idea that everything needs to be accomplished from day one yeah and you can you can draw that parallel even outside the gym anything anything instructive you want to do you know it's it's baby steps it's one thing show up you know just show up just show up just i like playing hearthstone and so i just whenever i play hearthstone whenever on the

treadmill i just play hearthstone you know hearthstone is hearthstone how do you pronounce it hearth it's uh uh it's like a i guess it's technically a card game but it's a digital strategy game. Okay. So basically, I'll be walking for an hour before I even realize it because I'm playing a game. You know what I mean? You just occupy your time on the treadmill. But what I was saying before is, you know, being strong is simply choosing to be.

It's get up and go to the gym and start exercising. And if you're worried about motivation, you have to say to yourself, do you look, do you want to be strong or not? Are you choosing to do it or not? It's really comes down to you. And I think you need to be conscious of that. You wake up and say, I will do this. Like I so so I've reduced the amount I've been producing because for like three years I was doing six segments per day, which was three and a half hours. Then when we started this, I was doing a ridiculous amount of like four,

four and a half hours. And all of that content was me saying, I have to wake up. I have to do it no matter what. There's no question, no sins or butts. And now I'm trying to reprioritize, expand and do that. So it's restructuring, but it really is just, you wake up and don't give yourself an excuse.

There's no excuse. You have no choice. You have to do it. Go to the gym. Go work out. Pretty simple. N. Timlin says, unprecedented number of graffiti in the Capitol consisting of veiny units and Wagner loves the male chicken. Rachel says, you missed my super chat.

Where do I send physical donations to you now? Address is no longer on the website because we need to set up a new po box because we're not in new jersey anymore and we've got to do a bunch of paperwork and it's going to be you know kind of so i'll get that up on the site asap we just have to go out and actually get a new po box so we're getting it sorted if you have the address of the old po box you can still use it because we we still will be checking the mail up there too i just don't have the top of my head so tyler says for anyone looking to purchase a gun go to honest outlaw for all your gun related

questions number one best gun tuber with his 1000 round reviews very interesting i made the mistake of buying nine millimeter makarov and not realizing it was a so Soviet bullet that doesn't work in a standard 9mm Luger, and now I just have a bunch of boxes of Soviet bullets. That's cool. Yeah, but I figure it would be fun to have a Soviet gun for target shooting or whatever, so you know. There's like one Polish firearm that

shoots it that we're looking for. Right, it's got 6.6. That's an odd gun. We'll find it. Someone will super super chat or if you have any ideas send me an email for some recommendations it was an accident but i still think it's fun yeah you know hey i'll take it ammo is dude i went on i can't remember which website i was on but i think i think cheaper than dirt i'm not sure has like nine millimeter for like two dollars a bullet whoa yeah it depends on you know are they hollow points i mean it's

just been yeah standard like full metal rounds it's just been crazy what's been going on there's nothing it's all gone it's all gone it's it's yeah and now it's man biden trying to make sure that anything gun related you can't get online anymore yep man i think that's a bear that you don't want to prod but he's going to prod it anyway. Yes. The order is apparent. I was hearing from this dude at a gun shop that all the ammo companies are backordered and paid for a year and a half worth of ammo. Yeah.

They're producing just to ship out. They're not producing to sell at this point. They're literally just backordered. Well, a lot of the big companies are producing for the U.S. government. There's four major companies. All of them are making it so the U.S. government has their bullets, and they're ordering a crap ton of them. That's another aspect here that we need to understand. Crazy, man.

Gareth Green says Atlas was a Titan sentenced to hold up the sky on his shoulders after Zeus and the Olympians came to power. Those jerks. Yeah, the Titans were the children of, damn, I don't remember. The Titans. They had to fight the Titans. We have a Mr. Balls, first named Stankly, says, Tim, you once said something about living in a van down by the river. Let me tell you something.

You ain't Chris Farley, so quit that talk. You should have Joey Diaz on when you get an entertainment-centered channel. I mean, you know, look, earlier in the the year we did segments on navajo skinwalkers you know that is they're just like creepy little monster like creepy demon monster kind of things you know whatever so we were talking about ufos and we were talking about strange phenomenon and just and news and culture we did a review on movies and then kova destroyed everything. Movies were gone. Politics became culture. And then everything we talked about was just like heavy politics. Politics became everything, yeah.

We got to talk more about the Vimana, the ancient flying ships. Apparently, people would like, kings would fly around on these giant palaces, like hot air balloon palaces. Very cool. I heard that there was like a story in the Bible about rocket ships. Or it was taken out of that. It was in the Book of Enoch, I think, was a balloon. We'll get you most of the way there. So the little propulsion orbit is hard.

So says Elon Musk. Let's go. Let's go there. That was on my bucket list. When Ashton asked me where I wanted to go, I said orbit orbit. That's that's my love. Ashtray says I recently dropped 85 pounds by running and lifting. The fact that gyms are closed and it's too cold to run outside is killing me.

Yeah. You know, first of all, 85 pounds is a lot of weight to lose. So kudos to you. But if you can lose 85 pounds, then nothing should be able to stop you. So that's encouraging. So as annoying as it is, don't let that destroy the distance you've come so far. There's actually a really simple solution for everybody who's got nowhere to work out. Just build a skate park in your basement. Yeah, just go get a farm.

Or take a road trip to Attila's. We're open. There you go. Yeah. I was kidding about the skate park. We have a very big production facility with a lot of space. But there you go Or take a road trip to Attila's. We're open. We're open. There you go. Yeah. I was kidding about the skate park. We have a very big production facility with a lot of space. But there you go. Take a road trip and hang out at Attila's and hang out with Ian.

We are open. And then by the time they got all the way there, well, then they have to commit. You know what I mean? You don't do a trip like that. Two birds, one stone. I like that. They could run there. Why don't they just run?

Yeah. Yeah. Well, no. That's your warm up. That's your warm-up. How about somebody start walking? Film it. Document it. Start walking.

That would be awesome. Yeah, that'd be great. The road to Attila's. Yep. Love it. Let's see. Mr. Brownstone says, Luke, tell Teespring to restock 2XL in L slash S. You were telling me a lot of people are buying your 2XL stuff, too.

I guess for me as well. I haven't checked. A lot of this is done independently through another company that we're both using, but two separate businesses. Tim's is, I think, Timcast, right? Well, just go to Timcast.com, click store. Mine is WeAreChange.org forward slash shirts. But I'm getting mixed reviews on them, to be honest with you. You know, Teespring takes a huge chunk, right? Oh, yeah. I wonder if we should look into doing our own or hiring another company. That's what I'm getting mixed reviews on them, to be honest with you. You know, Teespring takes a huge chunk, right?

Oh, yeah. I wonder if we should look into doing our own or hiring another company. That's what I'm thinking about as well. It's because Teespring is synced with YouTube. Massively convenient. But maybe for TimCats.com as a proprietary site, we'll do something different. But YouTube unsynced my Teesprings. And I'm like, well, maybe we could do something with someone else out there.

And if someone is in that business, feel free to reach out to me on my contact is on where do you sell your shirts again we sell ours right on store and we do everything ourselves and it is a giant pain yeah it is yeah but we we definitely didn't set out to be an apparel company and so it kind of came at us real fast it just happened where people were like hey we want to support you can buy some shirts and we didn't have an even have a website set up so we just set up a website and then we got a thousand orders overnight whoa and then we were like wait we don't have a thousand t-shirts and we've been we've been trying to keep up ever since wow so don't don't take my advice you have like a giant t-shirt press at the at the no we don't we don't print them but we buy them in bulk. We ship them to a local printer.

We organize them. We pack them up. It's local. I like that. There have been some companies that hit me up saying, no censorship. They were like, hey, we'll do a better cut. No censorship. So we'll look into that.

Yeah, I like that. And then YouTube has Teespring integration, so I'll just leave that as it is. Oh, that's a good idea. Well, some of my shirts were censored. Yeah, mine too. What? And over the ridiculous things. Like a shirt specifically

saying, we don't want a civil war. We want the mainstream media stopping antagonizing a civil war. Got taken down. I made one of the in my opinion, cleverest, most clever shirts ever. And I did a lot of work on it. It's the leftist revolution fist

with a sunburst behind it and the fist is holding a bike lock and it says liberals get the bike lock too. It's a reference to Berkeley specifically where an Antifa guy spray painted liberals get the bullet too and a leftist bashed someone over the head with a bike lock.

So I was mocking them for being pathetic and being violent. No likey? And Teespring was like, nah, you can't sell that. A little too head smashy. This is like my fifth shirt. Too close to the truth. To be fair, it was too esoteric.

If you didn't understand what it was mocking, it looked like it was violent. You know what I mean? I thought that was awesome. Liberals get the bike lock. But it was the leftist fist. You know what I mean? So I wonder if Antifa would actually unironically like the shirt wear it they'd be like that's a great shirt it's true i want it all my epstein stuff taken down all antifa stuff got taken down too apparently

like teespring took down a bunch of antifa stuff yeah so we'll find a better company look we don't want to make shirts like you know yeah it's a lot of work i did it before i did what you did i was gonna say we don't want to make shirts that are like. Inflammatory or hurtful. Yeah. Just silly jokes. But Teespring cracked down. Yeah.

You know. So actually. Taking all the fun out of it. Yeah. The shirt is still there on Teespring. It's just that when you click it doesn't go anywhere. Yeah. Because they're like, nah.

YouTube got really mad. They were like, what is this? I was like, it's a joke. I was like, you don't hear it. I sent them the picture from Berkeley. And I'm like, it's the Revolution Fest. And they were like what is this i was like it's a joke i was like you don't hear it i sent them the picture from berkeley and i'm like it's the revolution fist and they were like oh so you're like dog whistling to like promote violence or something i was like no it's the opposite it's mocking the violence okay i'll take it down smart they but they automatically removed it so let's see let's do a couple more jordan stalling says dean i ratcliffe quote cia management

downplayed analysts report of china influence in 2020 washington examiner january 7th 21 that's right yep this is this is strange nathan klein says can we get luke slash mr malice to write a cookbook do you cook cook? How's your cooking? I think he's making a reference to a political ideology and another book that we can't talk about here. But I

do love when I get the rare occasion, I don't do it often, but when I do get the very rare occasion, I do like to cook. Michael, come on down. Let's go cook some stuff. I can microwave the hell out of some of this stuff. Well, once we get...

We're trying to get this big property where we can film fun stuff and make videos and do science experiments and lasers, and then we could have really fun experiment videos. But man, it's really hard to do these days. Everything's shut down. People don't return phone calls. Let let me ask you something has this whole experience

made you uh more on the anarchist spectrum like moving down closer towards like libertarian and cap yeah i mean you're you're coming face to face with a bureaucratic monster and the bigger it gets the less effective and the less for the people the institution gets so it's it's hard not to look at it and say maybe we should do a little bit less of this this big government thing so absolutely yeah yeah watching all of this has definitely made me like but i'm i'm i'm like my whole life i've been pretty when i was a lot younger i was very far left anarchist and now i'm like moving closer to the center and moving up a little bit towards liberal because i'm like we got to have some kind of system but not in these blue states there has to be but it's the

one we have is is an absolute joke at this point i'm i'm talking to people out and you know out where we're out in the middle of nowhere and they're just like all these liberal transplants coming in and i was like i'm one of them and they give me this look. And I'm like, don't worry, I'm not going to vote. And they were like, OK, no, no, vote for our guys. And I was like, actually, I mean, well, you know, we'll see. I might just leave me out of it. I'm not going to I'm not going to move to an area that's better than my past one, like the previous area, and then vote for the mess about. Yeah, but I didn't I didn't vote for the people in these areas anyway, to be to be honest.

All right. Let's see. Here's the last. We'll do this. We'll do one more. Chandyland says Temple of the Feathered Serpent at Teotihuacan is a Vimana. Mercury was found in a chamber beneath center of the pyramid. Vimana is powered by mercury. Okay.

What? Is that true? I only understood like a really small part of it. Teotihuacan was the Aztec capital. And they're saying that the temple, it was a Vimana, like it could lift off and fly around and dock again. Yeah, the temple. I've never heard of mercury being used as a power source, but I don't know much about mercury, to be honest. I don't know. Quicksilver, they used to call it.

Yeah. Well, if you haven't already, smash that like button because it really really does help subscribe hit the notification bell and if you really like the show share it because word of mouth is the only way we actually grow this show if you tell people to watch it and then they do then they tell their friends boom bigger than cnn overnight but don't forget to go to timcast.com become a member because we will have more and more exclusive members only content as the the days progress a lot of it might be like hanging out vlog content behind the scenes stuff. And some of it will be special segments like, you know, we had Richie here the other day, but he wasn't on the show.

So I was like, come over and let's record something real quick and we'll throw it up for members. And it also just keeps us alive on this show, like functioning in the event censorship will eventually come for us. If we ever end up getting censored, we'll start putting up the videos on our own proprietary website and crossing our fingers that we can sustain the business if that were the case but if you really do want to support the show that's one way you can do it and uh you know do you want to mention your social media or anything you're doing um a lot of people ask

how they can help and the first way that i always say is is-financial, just like you were saying. Share the story. It has been our most powerful weapon against what is happening to us is the exposure. We knew when we stood up that we were going to get punched in the face. And we were okay with that so long as we could show the world what these people were doing and what extent they would go to in order to preserve their power. So it doesn't matter who you are. Share the story. And most of my updates are on Instagram. And that's Ian Smith Fitness.

But that is my handle across everything, Twitter, Gab, the whole nine yards. I'm going to check out that pocket net as well. You ever use Mines? No. You should check out Mines. I co-founded it. It's awesome. I'll have to take a peek. But Ian Smith Fitness is where you can follow the story and share any videos.

I try to update any time there's anything major going on. And then right in my bio there, there's a link to everything, the Attilis website. That's the Attilis Gym, and that's spelled A-T-I-L-I-S.com. There is another Attilis Gym. They're not very fond of us, so don't go buy their T-shirts. But that's got all the information. If you want to support us, grab a T-shirt. If you want to donate, you can do that.

And we just appreciate it. We really do. We're eight months into this fight, and somehow we're still alive. You made a great point. Sharing is very, very important. I mean, it's one of the few ways that people see my content on youtube.com forward slash we are change. We're demonetized. We're not in the partner program. And seriously, that one little click, I tell my people, just scroll randomly, whoever DM'd you and just send them this video without comment.

Whether it's this video or my video, you guys are a big part of this. I appreciate it. If you want to support me financially and my news organization, you can on wearechange.org forward slash donate. If you like the shirt I'm wearing and want to check out more of them, you can on wearechange.org forward slash shirts. But more than anything, it's imperative you need to sign up on the email list on wearechange.org because that's the only way to really talk to you one-on-one without anyone standing in the way. So we changed that org is the website thank you guys
