Starting point is 00:00:00 Governor Cuomo, for some reason, put COVID patients into nursing homes, resulting in the death of thousands of elderly individuals. He had the there was that medical ship that was brought to New York City. Donald Trump deployed that. He didn't use it. He had the Javits Center. He didn't use it. It was only at, I think, 30 percent capacity. So for some reason, he sent thousands of sick people into nursing homes. And then we saw thousands of elderly people die. Well, now we have huge news in a private conversation. One of Cuomo's top aides admitted that they were covering up the data. Now we've got Republican Rep. Stefanik calling for prosecution of Cuomo. This is crazy, man.
Starting point is 00:00:46 I mean, I'm glad the New York Times is reporting on this. I'm glad this stuff is coming out. But this is truly some sick and insane stuff. Now, we'll talk about this and what's going on. And I'll just leave the intro there because this is, I mean, look, we got other stories. We got some fun stuff. There's a story coming out about Pentagon FOIA request claiming UFO debris might actually be a real thing. And we're going to have a laugh and have a good time. But, you know, opening up with the most important story of the year so far and probably even last year, Cuomo won Emmys. He was he was heralded. He wrote a book about how to deal with COVID and he literally killed like 13000 people. It's dark stuff, man. So we'll jump into it. Joining us today, and it's a strange contrast, we have comedian Sam Tripoli. Old people are dying and now some comedy.
Starting point is 00:01:31 We're going to have a comedian here to make it look good. Great introduction there. Thank you. What am I supposed to say? These are dark times. The world is miserable. Here's a comedian for you. I mean, it's a good balance.
Starting point is 00:01:41 At least we'll laugh. Hey, dude, I appreciate it, man. Thanks for having me, dude. I appreciate it. You just want to just do a quick intro for who you are, what you do? My name's Sam Triplett. I'm a stand-up comic. I have a podcast called Tim Fall Hat with Sam Triplett.

Starting point is 00:02:13 Also, just a thing I wanted to address. I was smack-talking someone on Twitter recently, live during the show, and they were like, wait, wait, you're not really responding to me. Yes, I am. I actually live-tweet sometimes on Twitter.com forward slash Luke. We are change. And I don't know why I have to keep saying this. The shirt I'm wearing is not Alex Jones.

Starting point is 00:03:25 I am in the corner pushing buttons for the guys again. We're going to get into this twisted story. And it's sometimes hard because we do try to keep things fun and light. And before we even started, I'm like, should we just talk about the aliens thing? Because it really is a crazy story. The Pentagon, apparently there's a document release. It's a freedom of information request that went out and purports there are UFO debris and metamaterials and crazy stuff that some dude,
Starting point is 00:03:53 you know, is investigating and they claim to actually have, but they don't say it's from UFOs, but the guy was asking, do you have stuff from UFOs?

In a private conversation, the governor's top aide admitted that data was withheld on nursing homes where more than 10,000 New Yorkers have died during the pandemic. They say the remarks by the top aide, Melissa DeRosa, made in what was supposed to be a private conference call with Democratic lawmakers, came as a cascading
Starting point is 00:05:45 series of news reports and a court order have left Mr. Cuomo, a third term Democrat, scrambling to contain the political fallout over his oversight of nursing homes where more than 13,000 people have died in the pandemic and in the state. CNN takes a little bit further, saying New York, New York governor's top aide admits administration delayed the release of covid-19 deaths in long term care facilities over federal investigation concerns. You got to be kidding me. They thought there was an investigation coming. So they started hiding the fact that Cuomo killed these people. I've been mad about this for a long time.
Starting point is 00:06:20 And now it's it's substantially worse because I've been telling people, you know, 6500 elderly were killed by cuomo when he put these sick people in his nursing homes then they contracted it and died it was actually much more than that 13 000 people damn this is crazy well that's the estimate some people say it's even bigger than that some people are estimating it's 15 000 people the effects and the ramifications of this are absolutely brutal. I mean, there's multiple calls for criminal prosecution of Andrew Cuomo immediately. Jail now. No questions about it. Believe it or not, right to jail. Give him a trial.
Starting point is 00:06:52 Give him a trial, but right to jail. Seriously, this is absolutely insane. There are some actual, I never thought I would say this in my life. There's some actual Democrats in New York with a spine, and they're actually calling for Andrew Cuomo to lose his emergency covid powers that needs to be that needs to happen immediately how about step down yeah about that how about not like lose your powers i'll let you step down call the day i mean once again theorists are right right isn't it i mean like they said it forever and here we are once again theorists are right well but but but this was
Starting point is 00:07:24 publicly known this is what this is what blows my mind pro publica and not a conservative organization mind you ran the story saying 6500 deaths that one was bad enough what was this dude thinking putting sick people literally next to the most vulnerable we've been talking about what we got to do to open up the economy and the first thing is protect the vulnerable, the elderly and those who are immunocompromised.
Starting point is 00:07:48 And what does Cuomo do? The opposite. The opposite. He stuffs, what was it, 9,000 people? Yeah, around 9,000 that we know of for now because there's a massive
Starting point is 00:07:56 cover up here. As hospitals and field hospitals, the Jacob Javits Center, Central Park, and even huge U.S. naval ships were ready to take on sick people. What did he do?
Starting point is 00:08:08 Send him back to nursing homes under his own directive. The question is why? Yeah, what is— Why did this scumbag kill 13,000 people? And why now are they only calling him out now? We knew this happened months ago. So, Luke, you mentioned some Democrats have a spine. They said nothing for how many months, six, seven months. We've been complaining about the show periodically. We bring it up periodically. Cuomo killed these people.
Starting point is 00:08:35 And to add insult to injury, Cuomo is literally meeting with Biden now, trying to get federal bailout money for the state, for the mistakes that he made, for the lockdowns that he initiated and the lives that he ruined in more ways than one meanwhile what does the biden administration do they passed the bailout bill that's probably going to give them a boatload of money and they're going after florida florida all places that didn't lock down has no mandates is actually dealing with this sickness way better than of course the new york government but not but now biden's going to be literally bailing out new york state or it's giving them money for for doing this essentially if you had a spitball why he would do this like try to come up with a reason trump for the positive
Starting point is 00:09:16 right trump yeah yeah man these deaths were added to the numbers new york was brutal and how many they were they were like 35 000 have died so. And it seems like a good portion of that was because of Cuomo on purpose. And I think there's two things here. If I had to guess, OK, because I don't know for sure. Why didn't the media go after Cuomo hard? Why didn't Democrats? Because it helped them go after Trump. So they knew he killed these people.
Starting point is 00:09:42 And so you just wait till after November. Why were they taken out of the nursing homes to begin with? Who? What do you mean? You said they were sent back to nursing homes. Well, that means they were sent from the hospital to the nursing home. So they were sent back to the nursing home. So they were taken out of the nursing home.
Starting point is 00:09:56 They got diagnosed in the hospital. They were taken out of the nursing homes because they were sick. They went to the hospital. They got diagnosed with COVID. And then he was like, what are we going to do with them? Send them back to the nurse. Some of the people who got sent were young people. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:06 Yeah. Remember the guy that beat that guy up? There was young people for no reason being put in long-term care facilities with the elderly. In nursing homes? Yes. Wow. Cuomo killed these people. Well, you got to be careful with that accusation.
Starting point is 00:10:18 No, I don't. What? He didn't take a knife and cut their throats one by one. Even CNN is reporting now that he's responsible for this. Okay, he's responsible for the death. You're the only one defending the guy. Look, I'm not even defending him. Yeah, you are.
Starting point is 00:10:30 I'm just saying the way you phrase saying that someone killed someone and saying that someone's responsible for their death is a different thing. How about a guy who lost his mom who threw a banner down right here who said Cuomo killed my mom? Go tell him that Cuomo didn't kill his mom. Your tax dollars fund the drone bombs. You didn't kill those people. Oh, we did.
Starting point is 00:10:44 Yes, we did. No, you didn't. Yes, yes. Someone did with your money. We all, we did. Yes, we did. You didn't. Yes, yes. Someone did with your money. We all contribute to that. And that's why I complain about it. But I'm telling you this right now. When you've got Janice Dean of Fox News saying that Cuomo killed her in-laws when a guy dropped
Starting point is 00:10:56 a banner over a highway in New York saying Cuomo killed my mom and they lied about it because they were being federally invested. They were scared of a federal investigation. So they covered up the numbers. Dude, I'm telling you, they put sick people when they had the opportunity to put them on the ships, that ship that Trump sent in. Don't want to use that. Could make Trump look good, huh?
Starting point is 00:11:14 Didn't want to put him in the Javits Center, have the actual capability to save these people. So put him in nursing homes, let them all die, and then cover up the numbers because you're being investigated. And now even Democrats are coming after him. I'm sick to my stomach over this. Were the ship and the Javits Center like less? No, they were the best of the best. Were they dirty?
Starting point is 00:11:32 No one used them. No one was inside of them. They were empty the whole time. The military ship is some of the best of the best. The Javits Center, we can argue, was a field hospital that was set up and it wasn't the same as a regular hospital but to put people in nursing homes makes made zero sense and there was what you brought that guy who beat that that elderly guy 25 year old guy was recovering from covid he beat up this old dude in a nursing home after he was put and what about the ventilators
Starting point is 00:11:58 what about the ventilators that he hid and got busted high oh yeah the warehouse right yeah i mean cuomo got all these ventilators and hid them and then went on and started we need ventilators we need them and then trump's like they're right over here dude where you put them see when you said about the drone strikes tim didn't order the drone strikes cuomo ordered old people to the old It's a totally different thing Our tax dollar go to feeding this whole This military industrial complex for sure But Tim, me, Luke, nobody made a decision
Starting point is 00:12:35 Hey, let's drone strike this place Imagine how psychotic you have to be to do this And then say, I'm going to write a book about how great I did And I get a book deal out of it. I get an Emmy out of this. I get congratulated by all the mainstream media. Family friendly show. I got so many other words I want to use here.
Starting point is 00:12:54 Celebrating him and propping him up as this great leader when in reality, he's the complete opposite of that. It was a part of the criminal cover up. Take a look at how the media covered this from USA Today. Fact check. The complete opposite of that. It was a part of the criminal cover up. Take a look at how the media covered this from USA Today. Fact check. Does New York have a stockpile of thousands of unneeded ventilators? What was the accusation against against Cuomo that we know they need the ventilators and he was having them stockpiled in a warehouse somewhere?
Starting point is 00:13:23 So USA Today does a fact check where they say unneeded ventilators. Nobody said they were unneeded, that we were saying we needed them, deploy them. I love this. Here's their verdict. The verdict is false. While it's true that New York maintains a stockpile of ventilators not in use, it is incorrect that these machines are unneeded. The current number of ventilators deployed in the state are not enough to meet the increasing challenge well maybe if the dude used the ones that he had that were not in use he could have had enough why didn't he use them you know what man you you it's it's not a it's not a conspiracy because we know he did it the question is why we can speculate i have no idea so was he like hiding them to get more well he got caught he was lying like we don't have enough ventilators trump
Starting point is 00:14:04 you gotta send them and then i think it was trump said, you have a big stockpile you're not using. And he was like, well, but and then so the media comes to his defense and says unneeded ventilators. No one said there was a stockpile of unneeded ventilators. They said there were stockpiles of ventilators that we needed and they change it. That's how these fact checks work. I always talk about this. It'll be like, did Donald Trump have a scoop of ice cream with sprinkles? While it's true that Donald Trump did have ice cream, there were no sprinkles. Nobody accused him of having sprinkles. It's like Donald Trump could save a bunch of puppies from a building and
Starting point is 00:14:37 they'll say, did Donald Trump save a bunch of puppies from a burning building with gym shoes on? False. Big, bold letters. And the bottom will say, he did save the puppies, but he wasn't wearing gym shoes. That's the manipulation. That's how they lie. Does sanctuary cities have anything to do with this? Wasn't there a bunch of funding cut from places that were just taken illegal? Well, there is one real simple explanation. I mean, you can get dark with it and say he was willing to kill these people because he
Starting point is 00:15:02 hated Trump. Or it could be New York is facing a massive budget deficit and a massive debt, and they need money from the federal government. And in order to justify it, they say, oh, no, look at all these people. Oh, geez, you feds, you better give us money. We need the ventilators. We need them. Why?
Starting point is 00:15:20 You got a big warehouse full of them. Use the ones you have. Almost everything the New York government did when it came to COVID has backfired against the people whether it's from the very beginning come on fauci said they did it right dude he did fauci did congratulate them and said that they did a great job but from the very beginning they were telling you don't be racist go out to the chinese parade go out it's gonna be great the chinese did it it in San Francisco. Come on down to Chinatown. Yeah. So when you look at the leadership here, it failed at every single level. And who paid the ultimate price? The citizenry who are being brainwashed by the mainstream media to try to worship these individuals.
Starting point is 00:15:55 You shouldn't worship these people. These are criminals, top-level-notch gangsters that, of course, don't give a damn about you, never gave a damn about you. And the sooner you realize that, the better your life will be they do though i will say i can't stand the cuomo brothers personally from the outside i find that they're riding the coattails of their daddy's last name and that they're incompetent annoying ugly dudes personally i if i met him in person maybe i would like him one-on-one and maybe they are mafia like i don't know that's like some new york government and has had notorious been for like hand in hand with the mob.
Starting point is 00:16:27 The dude. What's the difference between the mob and the government? Yeah. What's the difference here? Paperwork. Yeah. Okay. Good point.
Starting point is 00:16:35 That's a good point. Yeah. Oh, well, you remember he was like comparing himself. He was talking about how him and Fauci are like Robert De Niro and what's his face from all those mob movies. So, yeah, he totally has that mentality. He's super powerful. Can I remind everybody what the Cuomo brothers were doing while Andrew was killing people? Here's from CNN.com.
Starting point is 00:16:59 Chris Cuomo teases brother Andrew with giant test swab. And then you've got Chris Cuomo being like, Hey, Andrew, you got a big nose. Look at this big Q-tip. You got to stick it in your nose. And everyone's laughing and having a good time. As his brother, this is another thing. As his brother was lying about the quarantine,
Starting point is 00:17:14 being sick, running around town, being caught for it, faking his own kind of release from quarantine when he was caught outside when he was confirmed to be sick. These brothers are psychopathic. They're insane.
Starting point is 00:17:26 From their own cognitive decisions, they knew that if they got someone else sick, they could kill them. They still went outside. And they never faced any reality for it. And CNN as a whole pretended that he was quarantined. You saw this story? Yeah. And then he got caught because he was screaming at some dude on a bike 30 minutes from his house because he owned some other property. And the guy sees him and is like, aren't you supposed to be quarantined?
Starting point is 00:17:48 He's like, don't you come here. Tell me what to do. Then Chris Cuomo admits it all on his radio show. By attacking the guy. Right. He went after the guy. I don't need some guy coming up to me telling me what I can do. And then everyone's like, even Ben Smith at the New York Times said said it's crazy how cnn is like you know basically lying about this and then later they had this
Starting point is 00:18:09 video where chris comes out of the basement like i'm not sick anymore i'm out of quarantine and we're all like dude we know you're just sitting there like my dad is such a fake dude if you watch his son's face while he's talking in that video it's so sad that kid's like oh my god yeah and then eventually they get traumatized and then they're in the whole that video it's so sad that kid's like oh my god yeah and then eventually they get traumatized and then they're in the whole system too it's like governor newsom's the exact same thing quarantine locking everybody down then his winery's open he's at some some restaurant chilling with his friends with no masks on it's rules for thee and not for me that is what this is basically in my humble opinion is an elite purge. They're doing whatever they want, not following the laws, and nobody's enforcing the laws.
Starting point is 00:18:48 And that's the biggest problem. Meanwhile, suicides of children in California skyrocketing. This is what people don't get in the purge. The elites are safe and protected while the poor people are killing themselves. They're not going to just come out and be like, everybody commit crimes. They're going to be like, we destroy your business. Then we mass print money that goes right into our pockets from you. And how much have people gotten? laugh about it and then they get richer the big box stores the big corporations get all of that stimulus money funneled right in their pockets because everything else is closed you're right it's the purge it's they're just doing it in a way because they don't want the like in reality
Starting point is 00:19:33 the purge wouldn't work because people could still commit crimes after the fact so here's the thing about the purge right this movie you guys you guys i'm talking about for those that are listening one day a year you can do whatever you want basically and the idea is the rich people and the elites don't got to worry about anything because they're so powerful and they have security. But people still commit crimes, right? So even if we had one day a year, that was the purge where you could get away with it. Some people still wouldn't care to get away with it because some people still commit crimes. So imagine this. You have a bunch of elites who get everybody killed. The next day, people aren't going to care about the law. They're going to be angry.
Starting point is 00:20:09 Well, this is the way they do it without actually getting anyone to point the finger at them. I mean, if you take a look at what was going on in all these cities, there was burning. These kids will commit crimes. We're finding these kids are the children of the elite. They go down and they burn down a middle class business. And then the DA would just release them yeah just release them just it is literally the purge it was rich kid purge that's and you when Malcolm
Starting point is 00:20:30 X and the Unabomber both say white rich liberals are the most dangerous thing out there that's what you're this is exactly what they're talking about and if you want to go even deeper you look at so many of these these cultural icons and how many of them are just rich kids that just got never got life
Starting point is 00:20:52 messed out of them you know like did have to go through it to kill idealism and they just got in these positions all their friends are rich in powerful positions and their message is spread. And that's what 2020 was. Antifa was all that. Just rich kids. I mean, my own studio in LA, I had friends of mine bragging about being in these riots that they burned and broke down businesses all around my studio. And I'm like, dude, I was right there.
Starting point is 00:21:20 All my hard work was right there. If you would have busted in there, you would have destroyed all my dreams. And you don't care because you didn't care about black lives. You just wanted to go out and have fun. And that's exactly what's happened. Well, they were locked in. They had no other release valve.
Starting point is 00:21:34 So when they took away the sports, they took away the entertainment. They locked them in. I mean, COVID was pretty much the year that a lot of people realized that the rich play out by a different set of rules. And hold on. Two more points. The latest news today is also that Australia. I don don't want to get off this point that's the purge that riot was the purge yeah they let them do it they let everyone run around for weeks smashing and destroying all across this country they literally had all across in middle class
Starting point is 00:22:00 and poor class because when they tried to go into Beverly Hills, they shut that down real quick. Not the rich people. Yeah, for sure. You see that guy who was tweeting about cheering on the riots? Yeah, from ESPN. And then all of a sudden he was like, oh no, now they're by my house. Stop. Go somewhere else.
Starting point is 00:22:16 Yeah. Rules for thee and not for me. COVID proved this is an existence controlled by the rich that have a different set of rules. As of today, we also got the information that Australia just extended their lockdown for five days. And Canada is now requesting that if you want to come into their country, you have to pay $2,000 for hotel stay and test to again quarantine. We were talking about this yesterday specifically with the United Kingdom now demanding that if you want to enter the United kingdom you have to pay two thousand four hundred dollars so this is pretty much only going to allow rich people to travel because who can afford paying two thousand dollars to go to canada to quarantine for a week has australia done it yet australia has has pretty much banned most travel uh i i forgot the latest updates we
Starting point is 00:23:00 could probably pull it up but not a lot of people are allowed to even enter or even leave australia yeah it was a contest said you got to get your your your test or whatever to prove you know you're not sick or whatever you want to fly well that's what happens in the united states now if you want to enter the united states you have to have a test unless you're going through the border yeah uh illegally and i do i mean take a look at what's going this is all about getting us used to the basically social credit score if you look at the nba they're doing this contact tracing thing i mean huge names guys test positive they're like oh you were near somebody they did with kevin durant he was right about to play and they pulled him and he can't play for games that's setting this setting the precedence trying to get us all okay with that
Starting point is 00:23:39 hey man you you were hanging out with somebody that we don't like go home and hang out that's what this is all about. New York proposed that bill. I don't know where it's at right now. I think it was in committee last time where they were going to set up detention centers or facilities for those who are suspected of having contact with people who may be a danger to public health. I got something for you, man. There is a video of Governor Newsom talking about, you know about how he's going to deal with the homeless. And he's working with FEMA.
Starting point is 00:24:08 And I'm telling you this. As much as you see the homeless around there, there's certain places where I've got to drive to work or go see my kids. And you'll see these giant homeless encampments. And then one day, you won't see hardly any homeless there. But the encampment's there. Then the next day you go by, the encampment's you're like where did all this go and i'm telling you this is how they did it they rounded them up at 4 a.m well so there's there's a city in northern california that does this they they take homeless people and then what was it they they declare themselves conservators of the individual's finances and they lock the homeless person up and then say until you can prove you can handle money you're locked up in san francisco they'll
Starting point is 00:24:49 come at 4 a.m with fire hoses just that's what i think is going on man i know people could call me crazy but i'm like where is all these people it was a giant catman now it's gone where'd they go and you don't see it come back and it's just like well the uh what what did new york do is like new york in the 80s was it giuliani yeah put all the put all the homeless people on a bus and then shipped them off to different cities that's what happens in la too yeah they ship oregon washington and all these other uh states send their homeless to us well they're gonna send the homeless people to like very lefty states and cities that pay for it. And the people who live there are the ones who reap the benefits of those policies.
Starting point is 00:25:28 I think that was called repopulation. It was like an ancient punishment for criminals. You just repopulate them by moving them to a different country or place. They put people in Australia? Yeah. That was a form of it. That's just the whole state, country. Technically, it's illegal to loiter.
Starting point is 00:25:44 So maybe that's what they're doing. They're like, this is your punishment. Have you guys been following impeachment at all? Yeah, I saw a bunch of stuff today that I thought was some really great videos that Trump pushes back on. There's some big stuff. So I don't care about impeachment, to be completely honest. But I do care about culture war stuff. So in the impeachment today, the Trump's lawyers
Starting point is 00:26:06 finally started snapping back in a very powerful way. And the reason this I care about, I think the impeachment stuff's a foregone conclusion. It's a waste of time. He's not going to be convicted. I mean, maybe sure, but I just doubt it. But there was, there was a few instances. One, the Trump's lawyers brought up Kamala Harris fundraising for these rioters and advocating for violence and riots and protest. And then the impeachment managers guy Raskin, he's like, I don't seem to recall Kamala Harris ever saying these things. Dude walks back up from Trump's side and he goes, we played the video here three times. What do you mean? Then they show these videos of all the Democrats calling for all this craziness.
Starting point is 00:26:48 They show all the videos of the riots. And it was like, I hope regular Americans saw all that. That was the opportunity the first time to point out the Democrats are doing. And that's it. There's no real trial here, right? The impeachment isn't actually due process. So it's stupid to come out and try and treat it like an actual court case 100 it's an optics propaganda war oh i mean like look at it with
Starting point is 00:27:11 the uh capital thing whether you think that's real or fake or whatever that is i mean you had all these people in hollywood going nuts i can't believe that you can't do that to the capital and these are the same people that were like match, match, match to all these Antifa people getting arrested for writing and burning down poor people and middle class people's businesses. It's the exact same thing. Yep. That's impeachment. Yeah, but it did feel good because I've been avoiding the impeachment stuff just because it's so boring and pointless. It is pointless.
Starting point is 00:27:44 But in the beginning, Trump's lawyers were doing pretty bad and now i'm seeing these videos pop up where i'm like hey this is pretty good because they because the democrats don't have answers for this how they've supported the violence for this long but it does go hand in hand with what we're seeing about cuomo i think for one the riots were basically them letting letting the purge happen destroy the small businesses, wipe out the middle class and the working class property and ownership so they have nothing. Then they print all this money, give it to you, only a little bit. But then everybody spends it at the big box stores that are allowed to stay open, and they are just siphoning away the assets. It's really funny,
Starting point is 00:28:17 this whole thing, everything that's happened, the lockdowns, the rioting, it really helps the great reset. You know the great reset 100 they said at first in but in 2030 you'll own nothing and you'll be happy well one way to get people to own nothing is to lock down their businesses by force and then when their businesses can survive here's the crazy thing about it right if you're in a restaurant you're struggling because your food went bad so there were some restaurants where they were like we got shut down for a month thirty thousand dollars worth of food spoiled and garbage if we want to, we got shut down for a month, $30,000 worth of food, spoiled and garbage. If we want to reopen, we got to spend 30 grand. What about a hard goods store? Maybe you sell skateboards or t-shirts. You're fine. You got rent to worry about and your personal
Starting point is 00:28:53 expenses, but you can survive longer. Well, surprise, surprise, the riots shut up, smashed out your window, stole all your stuff. Now your business is gone too. How convenient. Now you know, now you own nothing. The best part is the government won't even give you a little bit for food. They're just leaving you hanging. I don't know. I don't know what these politicians expect to happen, but it's almost like their support of this was meant to antagonize people, particularly Trump supporters or those who don't like the riots. The far left, they seem to have been happy with it. And the Democrat establishment, you know, cronies were happy with it.
Starting point is 00:29:26 Now you get this impeachment that's meant to be, I guess, insult to injury. The guy's not even president anymore. It seems like everything they're doing is designed to antagonize and just make people snap and go nuts. Yeah, I was thinking about this metaphor where you back a dog into a corner and you poke it with a stick until it lashes out and bites you. And then you blame the dog for biting you and have it put to sleep. And like these people are watching it happen. And because it's a Trump supporter in the corner that's getting prodded or whoever. And I'm not saying it's happening, but this is like what I keep thinking.
Starting point is 00:29:53 They're OK with it. They're like, yeah, he's getting abused. Oh, he lashed out. But it is happening. The issue is we're not saying it's a conspiracy or intentional. We're saying whatever the reason is, what's been happening over the past year is essentially Democrats pushing people into a corner and just whacking them with a stick over and over again. So it doesn't matter if their intention was to do that. That's literally what's happening.
Starting point is 00:30:15 And don't get me wrong. Republicans are not getting a free pass on this one. Oh, yeah, for sure. Trump was the one who was like, $2,000 for everybody. And it was McConnell was like, no. Well, yeah. Well, I mean, like, here's the whole thing. Like, a lot of people think this reset is about money and it's about power.
Starting point is 00:30:29 The people doing this have more money to ever spend in a billion lifetimes and more power than ever. This is a spiritual thing. This is a spiritual war. It's a spiritual attack. It's about stealing your loosh, your energy, getting you so depressed. And, like, you know, people are talking about the here. It's about stealing your loose your energy getting you so depressed and like you know people are talking about the uh here it's about to get weird but people are talking about the age of aquarius and this uh enlightening and then you're they're talking about hey man you know uh transhumanism
Starting point is 00:30:56 it's all about this this realm that we live in and trapping us here and just low frequency stuff these bill gates has more money and power than he'll ever have for a thousand lifetimes he's all about your energy and trapping you here and that's what this all about crush your soul crush your happiness make you miserable so they feed off that a lot of people say the great reset will happen well people need to understand the great reset is happening 2020 was not just a slap in the face but a low blow to all the american people paying attention especially all the american taxpayers and small business owners that have been ridiculed destroyed and just made to look like utter fools and it was
Starting point is 00:31:35 absolutely sickening to see police officers and there's some surveillance camera footage that that has gone viral uh in 2020 that shows police officers walking in and just fining, penalizing, and destroying the livelihoods of small mom and pop shops as people are allowed to coalesce in Walmart. They're allowed to be in Target. They're allowed to be in Best Buy. But if you had a small business,
Starting point is 00:31:57 the jackboot officer would show up at your door, sometimes break down your business door and say, that's it. I'm taking everything for you because my master, Mr. Como, Mr como mr newsome told me to do so and i as the raveling dog will do as i'm told and i will bite you and take away your food but listen it's simple it's simple we brought this up many times you're a cop you're making 30 40k a year that's not a lot of money for these like you know lower lower level guys, entry-level officers.
Starting point is 00:32:28 And you're looking at the devastation caused by the lockdowns. You're seeing the guy in the shop begging, please don't do this to me, man. I can barely feed my family. Don't give me that fine. And that cop's going, glad it's not me. I'm getting my paycheck. I'm with you on that. I'm with you. But still, it's basically there's no rule of law anymore, man.
Starting point is 00:32:45 I mean, I know some people don't like that one letter, the 17th letter, whatever, and they all thought it was just to pacify people. I just don't know what people else they were supposed to do. I mean, they pulled out their attention. They pulled out their money, cabled the two-party system. It's just that. But we have no rule of law the people who are there to take the oath to defend the constitution are not doing it on a local a state a federal and an international level our military and our law enforcement are not enforcing the laws what else
Starting point is 00:33:20 can we do they're enforcing the edict well this is the thing tim during the nuremberg trials following the the rules obeying your orders wasn't an excuse it didn't matter uh people were penalized and punished because they did what they were told and and and just because someone tells you to do it just because you don't want to do you don't you understand you're part of the larger system here the larger problem that is perpetrating it and allowing it to get this bad and it wouldn't be if you just simply questioned and actually did your job that you're supposed to do under the letters of the law there's no simple action people can take right you've got cops who are being told there's a pandemic people are dying this is how we save their lives we have no choice go to walmart
Starting point is 00:34:01 it's not the same go to costco listen go to best buy amazon's open yeah they're amazon fresh show up to the amazon warehouse then there's don't show up to the mom and pop shop in la on lancashire there's a billboard that says amazon fresh along the lines of this amazon fresh wide open come in that is and as you go down Lancashire, every small business is closed. This has been done purposefully, man. And listen, when authority comes across a resistance, it comes in the form of riot police. Every time, everywhere. The difference between here and these third world countries is they've seen a lot.
Starting point is 00:34:42 And the margins of going like completely and utterly broke is so much thinner. We have a good here. A lot of people don't want to rock the boat. But guess what? It's just they're just going to keep taking a little bit more. It's dominoes falling over. There's no easy way because it's all about confidence in authority. The Constitution is meaningless. The laws are meaningless. If Cuomo ordered the cops to do something illegal, they would just do it. Right. No, no, no. Don't get me wrong.
Starting point is 00:35:07 A lot of them have quit. Absolutely. A lot of cops around the country have quit, and they're now being replaced by essentially scabs, people who are willing to work in violation of the law just because the executive said to do it. There's got to be something going on behind the scenes because this Great Reset is not an American thing. It's like a glow.
Starting point is 00:35:23 Klaus Schwab is out of the world you be any have any more evil name than klaus schwab so i think you're spot on with it being a war for your spirit i don't know if they're behind the scenes bending u.s law and just like you know what we're just going to go past it let's make whatever pandemic so we can suspend habeas corpus they want have you seen bill gates zeros patent zero six zero six zero six they want to put things in your body to track your bio we've already gone over this maybe they don't want to implant but it's a real patent and they want have you seen bill gates zeros patent zero six zero six zero six they want to put things in your body to track your bio we've already gone over this maybe they don't want to implant but it's a real patent and they want to measure your wearable they want to measure your bioactivity and then pay you crypto so they can see if you're watching a cartoon they'll pay you for that if you watch that cartoon if you watch that commercial you'll get paid for that they want to maybe
Starting point is 00:35:59 eventually put your body in a pod and give you money for the heat. What is this? A movie matrix? We're already in pods, dude. We plug it in our VO. The matrix body heat thing made no sense on purpose. But they want to pay you for your biometrics. It's very similar to the matrix bio heat thing. What the 666 patent is about is that they want you to take physical activities in exchange for crypto.
Starting point is 00:36:20 Yeah. Basically, what's happening is it's an authoritarian attempt at making people we talked about this like basically get back to nature be more you know sleeping in the in the flowers in the fields or pay you for watching cartoons gargling bacon for breakfast they can pay you for watching commercials they really wanted like doll i think they think there's too many people and they want to like start controlling talks about He talks about it. His father was a eugenics. This is a fact. His father was a eugenics.
Starting point is 00:36:49 His father helped... Eugenicists. Eugenicists, yes. He had many ties to... Well, this is another thing. I think they're really trying to make the world like China. I don't think it's overconsumption, but I think it's seeing how China runs their kind of government,
Starting point is 00:37:03 runs their people, and trying to exemplify it. Because if you look at even Davos, which is hosted by the World Economic Forum, their first speaker this year was, of course, the president of China. And Klaus is there, oh, Mr. Anerborg, you do such good work. I love you all, like growling over him. He got the first say during the World Economic Forum today. And he's like, this is great. We need more economic governance.
Starting point is 00:37:28 We need more economic cooperation worldwide. And this is exactly what's happening here, especially with corporations like Disney and others, the Rothschilds, the Pope. I sound like I'm talking hyperbolic stuff, but look up the Rothschilds Pope Alliance. They're the ones bringing
Starting point is 00:37:40 all the major corporations into pushing for the Great Reset. Operation Galado, I think it's called. Well, no, no, no, no. There was even a mainstream media article. We could probably pull it up talking about how, you know, the Rothschilds were specifically bringing together a lot of top banks on Wall Street, a lot of major corporations, a lot of big pharma organizations to push for this global reset, which is a great idea. I shared the article with you uh as well tim and we talked about it on the show mainstream media articles we're talking about the issue is this communism
Starting point is 00:38:09 had a lot of power the soviet union killed a lot of people these communist nations killed a lot of people mountains of skulls who was talking about that and it was a bright matt brainard in cambodia yeah cambodia and so the problem was america freedom constitution liberty first second amendment third fourth fifth six seven eight nine you get the point so if you want to have communism the authoritarians can do it they can suppress and oppress and kill hundreds of millions of people the problem is so long as those people know freedom exists they will do everything in their power to jump over that wall to find freedom and communism but when monarchy also is a big problem well so with authoritarianism you had when they were
Starting point is 00:38:50 building the anti-fascist protection rampart in in germany you know that is right the berlin wall it was called the anti-fascist protection rampart you had people fleeing their homes full speed to cross before the wall got built because they knew what was coming. When the wall was built, I think the first person who died was this young guy who tried jumping the wall and they killed him. They didn't want their subjects, the slaves of their of the communist union to escape because they needed people to work as effectively slaves. Once the people knew that freedom was just on the other side, they would risk their lives to get it. So these people, the authoritarian wingnuts like the Chinese Communist Party, know the only thing standing in their way from implementing total global authoritarianism is a country like America with a constitution, with freedom, with a bill of rights.
Starting point is 00:39:39 So you have to destroy it and erode it from within. Once America is gone, there will be no land of the free. There will be no idea of freedom and there will be nowhere to run. There won't be a wall you can jump over. No matter where you go, you do as you're told or you get the worst of it. That's where we're heading towards. And, you know, I know a lot of people on the left might say, oh, you're being hyperbolic. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:39:59 You're not paying attention. Yeah. You look at what's going on with the government literally shutting everything down without any scientific evidence, being wrong every step of the way, and destroying the lives of people every single day. At a certain point, you have to ask yourself why they're doing it. Another thing to really... Sorry, Ian, I really want to bring this up too, especially along with China. We also found out today that they blocked the World Health Organization from accessing critical data to
Starting point is 00:40:25 find out where this sickness came from. They actually blocked information going around from the first people that got sick. And we're living in a government right now that's acquiescing to China in a way where Joe Biden signs an executive order saying you can no longer say the China virus as he's talking about the UK variant nonstop. So there's a double standard here. There's obviously something going on here that doesn't add up, doesn't make sense. And for the World Health Organization to puppeteer the official lines of Beijing after only spending three hours in that laboratory in Wuhan, after not getting the critical data to even assess how this started, is absolutely sickening.
Starting point is 00:41:02 Listen, it all goes back to that nobody knows history nobody studies history the fact that blm was started by black lesbian marxist means that i don't know how you can be a marxist and be those two things because if you study communism the first thing that happened pretty like he was he was like anti-lgbtq okay look at look at china look at look at russia dude the first thing communism does is it it just it it pushes hold on it's authoritarianism because fascists did the same thing both extremist ideologies that were taking over europe wanted very similar things and the only real difference in my opinion was the words they use to describe themselves but but if you look at china you look at russia which is a communism they marginalize women ethnic minorities and gays
Starting point is 00:41:51 it happens i do i was supposed to do stand-up this is about 10 years ago in china and i gotta be honest with you man when you go around china the people are the people are nice it's always the governments man it's always the governments, man. It's always the governments. And we're supposed to do stand-up at this Hard Rock. And they told me two weeks before they were supposed to have the first ever national Mr. Gay Chinese competition. And the government came down and shut it down because they didn't want to talk about it. They didn't want that happening. Look at what's going on. We talked about this a couple days ago.
Starting point is 00:42:25 In the United States, they're saying masculinity is bad. We do these Gillette commercials where they say toxic masculinity, all that stuff. In China, they're doing the opposite. In China, they're training young men to be more masculine. This is a big thing they're working on. This is what really gets me is seeing people wear Che Guevara shirts because there's many reports, many accounts of him being a racist,
Starting point is 00:42:44 homophobe, mass murderer and specifically being specifically cruel to individuals of color and individuals who were gay. So why is he so... Because he's beautiful. Because he's beautiful, dude. People are obsessed with charisma. He was charismatic
Starting point is 00:42:59 and beautiful, so people didn't mind that he was well-liked, he was young, he was smart, and he had a beautiful smile. He would blow people's brains out for fun. He was a nut job. But people wear his shirt because he's an attractive guy. It's psychotic. I mean, like they walk around crying about Nazis with NASA t-shirts on.
Starting point is 00:43:16 I mean, they have no clue of history. Operation Project Paperclip. Yeah. They have no clue of history. We just talked about it. The Japanese unit that we took all their data 731 well let's do this let's let's let's jump to the next big story that we saw today that we got to talk about and i think it i think this this fits in a lot of what we're saying
Starting point is 00:43:33 this is uh from deadline gina carano hits back announces new movie project with ben shapiro's the daily wire they can't cancel us if we don't let them you know why this you know why they canceled her and this plays in a lot of what we're saying, because she's defiant and because she was getting famous. So I don't want to name any of these celebrities in the past, but if I were to tell you that they were outspoken celebrities defying the war machine in decades past, you know, you understand the war machine hated that. They hated the fact that celebrities rose to power, whether they're rock stars or movie
Starting point is 00:44:05 stars or whatever, and then use that activism to defy their plans. You end up now with, in many instances, you have the celebrities just towing the line of the establishment elites and playing along. It's very, very smart. Make sure the celebrities in Hollywood and the music industry can only agree with the authoritarianism. Otherwise, you'll get people rising up, defying you. And then you got a real problem because these are charismatic people when they become famous, right? One of the reasons to become famous.
Starting point is 00:44:33 Gina Carano was speaking out saying, don't demonize your neighbor. She was speaking out saying, don't bully people. You can't tell me what to do. That's defiance. They had to say, you're out. See, they don't have to arrest you or lock you up. They're using economic power. They'll threaten to take your job away, your comfort, your livelihood. And it works. The problem now, I'm really interested how this plays out because the Daily Wire has a movie division. Now they did the movie Run, Hide, Fight. And they immediately, I guess, hit up Gina and they've announced they're doing a movie together. So Gina Carano said, The Daily Wire is helping make one of my dreams
Starting point is 00:45:11 to develop and produce my own film come true. I cried out and my prayer was answered. I am sending out a direct message of hope to everyone living in fear of cancellation by the totalitarian mob. I have only just begun using my my voice which is now freer than ever before and i hope it inspires others to do the same they can't cancel us if we don't let them love it you know what's fascinating about this the other day we were talking luke and i think you were saying she's probably you know going through a lot with being canceled booted off uta i actually was like i don't know she seems really tough you know mma fighter she was probably more angry and like agitated.
Starting point is 00:45:46 Like, Oh, what am I? I'm going to, I'm going to fight and we're going to do this. Turns out she's behind the scenes planning her next major move, which only escalated her, her stardom.
Starting point is 00:45:54 Yeah. Even more famous. She also tweeted out today, quote, this is just the beginning. Welcome to the rebellion. Yes. Awesome energy.
Starting point is 00:46:02 Awesome vibe. There's some other things happening behind the scenes. I don't want to mention, but great person, and that's the spirit you need to have because if you have the spirit of, I'm so sorry, please let me have my job back, you're utterly destroyed, and you let them win. You let them have your power.
Starting point is 00:46:17 Don't let them have your power, and you could come out on top of this. I have the perfect analogy. I have the perfect analogy. See, you've got uh some celebrities and after the emperor declares unlimited power and blasts mace window out the window they drop to their knees in front of the woke mob and go i will do anything you say losers yeah i mean i just i you know watching revenge of the sith you've you've all seen it yeah because gina krana's in star wars you know we gotta do Star Wars reference I love the Mandalorian I just I just watch Revenge of the Sith and I just want a scene
Starting point is 00:46:49 where Anakin just kills the Emperor just just finishes him off we should remake it when he drops to his knees and says I'll do whatever you say I'm like oh it's so pathetic but it's the movie right yeah I'd love for him to just be like you know mace is fighting the emperor and then he and then i imagine this i finally got that scene i always wanted to see anakin say no to the empire to the emperor to the empire gina carano on star wars working for disney literally like the empire of media and they declared unlimited power do as you're told and she said no i will not do whatever you say and left well awesome man this is the crazy part because the spin by the mainstream media is very interesting there was an article by the independent that was titled gina carano's mandalorian exit proves
Starting point is 00:47:37 cancel culture doesn't exist despite what her fans say i had to double click this because i saw a screenshot i was like no way this can't be real this is someone just goof say, I had to double click this because I saw a screenshot. I was like, no way, this can't be real. This is someone just goofing. I literally had to put in that title just to see it, to believe it. They have this article talking about how there is no cancel culture. It doesn't exist. Two plus two equals five. Just keep doing what you're told. Absolutely crazy.
Starting point is 00:47:58 I met Gina Carano about 13 years ago at a show on Spike TV with her then boyfriend, Kit Cope, and she was the nicest person. She was so nice, and she's always succeeded at everything she's done. So I don't know why this would be any different. And, you know, Disney has its own dark history. So for them to judge anybody on any of that. And, you know, when you discuss a Holocaust, it's a very delicate situation. We all have Jewish friends friends and it's very sensitive
Starting point is 00:48:25 and you have to respect that for sure but it's like if we don't understand history we're doomed to repeat she was she said don't demonize your neighbor it didn't say republican it's a democrat it didn't say it said don't demonize your neighbor i had a family that died in the camps she gets a pass everyone gets a pass you get a pass it doesn't matter we shouldn't be scared to talk about history you should be able to talk about it this is a one-way this is a one-way river this water flows in one direction check out this story from the san francisco chronicle a black lives matter mask shut down the girl and the fig it's a restaurant it's a wine uh restaurant i believe showing the high stakes for restaurants that stand on the sidelines the famed wine country
Starting point is 00:49:04 restaurant said a blm mask violated its uniform policy. But for a younger generation, disengaging is no longer acceptable. What is that? What is this? If you are an employee at Taco Bell, because this happened, and you're wearing a Black Lives Matter mask in violation of company policy, and they try to fire you for your politics, the woke mob attacks the business and the business hires them back. In this instance, we have this wine country restaurant.
Starting point is 00:49:29 Woman wanted to wear a mask, I guess, or employee want to wear a mask. They said no. So the woke mob goes after the business. It's always in the direction of the cult. If their cult is winning, that's all that matters. Gina Carano was defiant. She resisted. So they get rid of her. These restaurants, the businessiant. She resisted. So they get rid of her.
Starting point is 00:49:45 These restaurants, the business itself was resisting the cult. So they go for the business. It doesn't matter. It goes in one direction. You must support the cult, period. Otherwise, they'll destroy you. But I tell you this, all of the cowards who refuse to speak up, well, when they come for you, you will regret it because you have your chance now to speak up and be defiant. And I love what The Daily Wire is doing, by the way, because this is how you win. Building culture. Make movies. Make movies.
Starting point is 00:50:10 Inspire people. Make cool stuff. Build your own website. But if you do nothing. So I was talking to a bunch of friends of mine recently in the past day or so because of what happened. And a lot of them are telling me like, dude, I wish I could do something and speak out, but I'll get fired.
Starting point is 00:50:24 And I'm like, bro, don't say anything political just make something cool and inspire people to hang out with you and then they will be surrounded by free loving individuals that's what you need to do so make movies hire gina carano do a new do a new series well another thing people really need to realize is that they're going to come for you whether you like it or not for just maybe even your thoughts in the future as we found out today from even instagram as they announced that they are going to start banning people for what they say in private dms your private messages are now being snooped through being scanned by instagram and if there's any quote hate speech in there they will ban you for even things you don't publish they've
Starting point is 00:51:05 been scanning your messages for ages i want to go back through your history and find stuff now retroactive enforcement they've done that too youtube did it yeah youtube did it to me i got banned for a video like that was almost three or four years old two times that they've done that to me they've taken me out you know here's the thing dude we you have to understand it's like what is what is the platform? What are the rules? Either you play by their rules or you get off. And people think that's like, ah!
Starting point is 00:51:31 It's like people from 2000s. We all had our own websites. That's where it's going. Geo cities, bro. Remember Geo cities in the 90s? Yeah. You went on. You signed up.
Starting point is 00:51:41 You had your own website. People would just build their own thing. And if you were like, how did you find someone's content information? Well, you get a business card with their website on it. Then social media was invented. You know what the first social media website I used was? Classmates.com. Is that what you used?
Starting point is 00:51:57 That was the first one. Legit first one. Then Friendster. No, it was Ujournal and LiveJour journal were considered to be the precursor to friendster where people were linking with users and posting things and sharing their journals yeah yeah so a bunch of my friends were using you journal and live journal and then friendster happened and friendster was where you actually had a list of your friends people could look at friendster man and then myspace was better tim take the take the pillow money, buy MySpace. MySpace is totally different now, though.
Starting point is 00:52:27 It's not even... Does Timberlake still own it? I think... You could give for 30 mil, dude. A lot of people were saying that MySpace... They're like, let's all go back to MySpace. Yeah. And it's like, it's not even... It doesn't work that way anymore.
Starting point is 00:52:38 It's like, it's a music website now. It's not a social media network. Mine is probably better technology anyway, and it's open source. Yeah, definitely. We just need to build stuff, right? This is the point. The reason why I think what Ben Shapiro is doing, The Daily Wire, is the smartest and
Starting point is 00:52:50 best thing possible. It's peaceful. It's persuasive. It's resourceful. There's no violence, but it's so powerful. They are freaking out already, smearing. You know what I love? Ben Shapiro, Daily Wire, puts out Run, Hide, Fight, this new movie, right?
Starting point is 00:53:03 It's about a school shooting. And I guess some of the reviewers are saying it's kind of like Die Hard, like an intense action movie. The Rotten Tomatoes score, what do you think it is? What do you think the critics gave it? Like a 10. 25%. What do you think the audience gave it? 99.
Starting point is 00:53:19 93%. Of course. It's ideological. There was another. What was that movie with Bruce Willis? Do you guys remember where his wife gets killed and he goes and buys a bunch of guns? What was that movie called? I don't remember.
Starting point is 00:53:31 I can't remember what it was called. But it was another one of these movies where the audience score was ridiculously high because it was a really enjoyable film. It was a popcorn flick. It was Bruce Willis with guns taking out bad guys. Gotta love it, right? I love Die Hard. And it was like he was a family man and he hit a gun under a desk
Starting point is 00:53:48 and the bad guy comes back in and his daughter's hiding under the stairs and then he hits it and the gun comes out and he just narrowly survives. It was awesome. Critics? What was it? Death Wish. That's right. And the critics hated it. They were like, oh, this is a gun nut masturbation film. Kid you not. That was one of the reviews.
Starting point is 00:54:04 And then the audience was like, that was really enjoyable. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. Good job, Bruce Willis. It's not Casablanca or anything. It's not this great movie of great history.
Starting point is 00:54:14 It's an entertainment. You watch it at the theater. You have some popcorn. You smile. You laugh. You're on the edge of your seat. Whoa. And then you go home.
Starting point is 00:54:20 That's it. You maybe get it on DVD or download it on Amazon, I guess, or subscribe, whatever. Does anyone listen to critics anymore? I like they they totally whiffed on everything and the new generation's like i'll either watch it if i like it or not i'm not gonna yeah but some guys have ever done it it changed when we could get the crowd to review stuff like steam video games you'll have like gamestop magazine or whatever will come out and be like nine out of ten
Starting point is 00:54:42 explosive and it's one guy that works for you and then you go to the steam reviews and there's like 70,000 reviews, 73% overall. And you're like, okay, it's a 73% overall. This is why I decided to launch a pillow company. Yeah. I'm sorry. Our pillow. Yes. And the Maya is crossed off. Oh, some, somebody tweeted at me. They were like, Tim, you didn't start a pillow company. You started a tea spring campaign that sells pillows. And I said, we started a tea spring campaign that sells pillows. But, Tim, you didn't start a pillow company. You started a teespring campaign that sells pillows. And I said, we started a teespring campaign that sells pillows. So the plan is now I ordered a bunch of burlap sacks, and we're going to pour packing peanuts into them and just staple them shut. And the gag is they're totally brutal pillows, like the worst and most uncomfortable thing you'll ever sleep on. But it's the right ideology, so you have to buy it.
Starting point is 00:55:25 Don't forget, dude. Made in Americaica is this the arm pillow yes it's gonna be a burlap memory foam you could probably say whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa it's the perfect pillow for couples no no no no no no yeah the point is the point the point is a burlap sack full of packing peanuts stapled shut is garbage, but people will buy it because it supports their tribe. You don't want it to be nice. That's what's going on with movies and video games. Why is David Hogg starting a pillow company in the first place?
Starting point is 00:55:53 It's every, I can't remember who said it there on the show. They said, every pillow company is competing with my pillow. They'd all love to put him out of business because they all, Serta. Posobic, I think. Yeah, yeah. Serta makes pillows. So the only reason to start a pillow company,
Starting point is 00:56:07 the only reason David Hogg would do it is because it's a tribal virtue signal. Now look, more power to him, which I'm success if he sells pillows, fantastic. And so I jokingly am going to start one
Starting point is 00:56:15 mocking the whole idea. I mean, we have the hour pillow. Go to TimCast.com, click the shop button and you can buy the gag pillow from Teespring, but we're legit. I swear, I ordered burlap sacks.
Starting point is 00:56:24 We're going to film this and we're going to run a commercial. You have a vision. We're running this. I'm not kidding. I am going to run this on primetime cable TV. When Tim has a vision, he makes it happen. It's happening. And I'm looking over prices, and it's going to be very expensive.
Starting point is 00:56:35 But I think selling burlap sacks full of packing peanuts will have an excellent profit margin. This is like a Coke idea without the Coke. Well, listen, listen, listen. Here's the best part. If people buy burlap sacks full of packing peanuts for pennies on the dollar and I sell them for 50 bucks each, I'm going to make mad profit off of communism. It's great. Let me ask you. Who do you think has weirder?
Starting point is 00:56:54 Who got weirder? Who got famous off a weirder thing? Kim Kardashian or David Hogg? Well, the thing about David Hogg is that he's in a political space. And with all due respect, man, I mean, the story and what happened in Parkland is horrifying. It's horrifying. So I got no beef. I got no issue. I think more power to David Hogg. He's got his opinions. I think he's a young, naive kid. I think a lot of them are. And I think there are a lot of powerful special interests that want gun control that were willing to prop that up.
Starting point is 00:57:25 I mean, look, Kim Kardashian is a marketing master. I have no disrespect to her at all. You go, boo. I'm not complaining. It's just like weird things to get famous off of. I mean, to be completely honest, people get famous for very strange reasons. That was weird. And people, if you look back in history, fame used to be negative, like almost always negative.
Starting point is 00:57:49 You know, the people who got famous got famous for, you know, being murderers or whatever. Robin Hood. I mean, he's not a real person. He wasn't famous in life, yeah. I don't think he was actually real. But you think about the people who were famous back in the Wild West, and they were all basically scoundrels. They were all crooked for some reason or another. Fame is a weird thing.
Starting point is 00:58:07 It's just a story that you hear. Look at Dillinger. He's robbing banks, and he's famous. Capone, Al Capone. I mean, you have movie stars eventually coming in, and fame became more of this weird sideshow kind of thing. Yeah. Infamous was a pretty popular phrase back in the day.
Starting point is 00:58:21 Mass media changed that. Notoriety. Notoriety, basically. But look, man. Notorious. I'll tell you this what the reason i brought up all the pillow stuff especially with you know making my own pillow company and then david hogg it's because this is what we're seeing right now with the daily wire you can't win with when the cultural institutions have been totally taken over by the woke cultists you're you't. And so they've kicked us out of the castle. They've said, go away. What do we do? Build our own. They've been saying it over and over again,
Starting point is 00:58:52 build your own. So, OK, we'll start doing that. Now, when many of these conservatives tried launching things like Parler, for instance, they got nuked. Even Gab got nuked in the beginning. Early on, everybody started saying you can't build your own because they control all the infrastructure, the financial infrastructure, the DNS, the servers, all that stuff, the hosting. Well, Gab figured it out. You're familiar with Gab, I'd imagine, right? So Gab starts building their own infrastructure.
Starting point is 00:59:20 The Daily Wire is now building their own infrastructure. And so it may have been difficult and taken some time we are really headed towards this point tribal capitalism where people are going to be like i need a pillow which pillow supports my political ideology and then they'll go buy it you know hogs pillow you know a good pillow and then conservatives will buy my pillow i guess i gotta be honest i think conservatives would just buy the cheaper pillow that makes the most sense yeah but it's the tribal on the tribal leftists are really going to go hard for you know whatever supports their ideology i think uh the super bowl really was like overdone with like just all the progressivism and all the woke stuff and i think the nfl better watch itself because i mean say whatever you want, ma'am. America showed its true colors.
Starting point is 01:00:07 Nobody watches television, okay? Nobody's involved. Everyone's pulling out of this political correctness stuff. Everyone's pulling out of the two-party system. They did what they could. They controlled, which is where their attention and their money went. And this whole thing about how the election went and all that stuff it's it's very interesting well so this is actually uh this is actually hilarious man you know the
Starting point is 01:00:30 super bowl ratings tanked right of course but it's worse than people realize because they didn't release the real numbers so i've got the story from the new york times super bowl ratings hit a 15 year low it still outperformed everything else. Yeah. Sure. But let's, I gotta go through this because the numbers are hilarious. They say, Sunday's Super Bowl was watched by just 91.6 million people on CBS, the lowest number of viewers for the game
Starting point is 01:00:56 on traditional broadcast television since 2006. A total of 96.4 million watched when other platforms like the CBS All Access streaming service and mobile phone apps were counted, the lowest number of total viewers since 2007. Do you know what they're not saying? This year, for the first time, they're including out of home viewership. They're trying to make it seem like the numbers are the same.
Starting point is 01:01:18 They're not when they say they say at its peak in 2015, 114 million people watched. That was people at their in their homes watching TV. Now what they're saying is including other people who watched outside of the home. So what are the real numbers? Because the real numbers could be substantially lower. You know what I see with this? When I see the Super Bowl ratings tank, NBA ratings tanked, ratings for sports have been going down. I think the American cultural empire is completely shattered into a million pieces.
Starting point is 01:01:54 No one listens to the same music anymore. And I think it really is the internet. Ultimately, I think this is going to lead to hyper-tribalism. It's contributing to the hyper-polarization. There's no unified American culture anymore. So what you end up getting alongside things like this, people don't agree on what is or isn't. So a good example of what was wrong with the Super Bowl, they had a couple commercials that mocked conservatives. Seventy four million Trump voters got made fun of by the Super Bowl ads because they these marketing companies probably don't know what to do.
Starting point is 01:02:24 Who do we pander to? Well, how about pandering to neither? Yeah. The divide is too big. So a lot of people just won't watch Super Bowl, conservatives especially. I'm not going to watch it, especially not after being made fun of. So the more they do this, the more they lose power and the more conservative institutions and infrastructure will start being built.
Starting point is 01:02:41 And then what happens now that we have, you the daily wire doing their own movies what happens in five years when you have two completely parallel economies where neither side talks to each other but they they they fight for the same government somebody's gonna throw a punch somebody's gonna pull out a cane in congress like back in you know 18 i would love that i'd love it to go third world man don't you't you like watching like Thailand where they just jump up and it's battle royal? I was in Thailand in 2014 and I got to stand in one of those vehicles with bloodstains all over it because someone chucked a grenade into it. You don't want to live that way, man. I mean, I don't want chaos, obviously. And I think that's why a lot of things haven't popped off worse than they could because everyone knows we have a good here and they don't want to mess it up.
Starting point is 01:03:28 Not yet, though. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Look at the idea of the dueling pillow companies. People don't care about the usefulness of a product anymore because Americans are fat and happy. There's nowhere else to go. I mean, theoretically, we need I shouldn't say theoretically. Literally, what we need is a't say theoretically literally what we did what we need is a unified culture with goals we don't have that the goal of the left and the right
Starting point is 01:03:51 now becomes destroying the other it's and the other is their their their imagined enemy you make me think of like bread and circus because you were saying how like sports have failed almost in their in their attempt to assuage the the community because we got the internet if the romans had the internet we would never would they would never would have created that giant empire because you would have gallic propaganda versus sort of making youtube videos you would have hannibal telling everybody what what how oppressive the romans were in rome they'd be like oh well screw this so that's where we're at now and everything's fracturing and shattering and decentralizing but think about it but in in in the roman empire communication could only travel so fast.
Starting point is 01:04:26 And when you controlled the roads and the military, you controlled the information. So then people only learn what you allow them to learn, and that stops dissent. What are they doing now with everything? They got censorship,
Starting point is 01:04:39 mass censorship, control of information because the system is breaking down. They started losing control a long time ago. Super Bowl ratings are proof of it. NBA ratings before this. They tried putting Black Lives Matter on the courts, kick out the fans. Nobody wanted to watch it.
Starting point is 01:04:52 Yep. But see, I know this might be crazy. I think people are coming together. I do. I think what you see on social media and on television is a war because that's what they want you to believe that there's a war going on but when you actually take a look at it how many latinos voted for trump black conservatives big i mean that's the most punk rock stuff i've ever seen black conservatives you know more than ever and then you add like you know i mean like
Starting point is 01:05:22 conservatives are pretty laid-back people today what conservative is compared to when I started stand up, which was like super religious. Now it's just like, hey, man, don't take my guns. I don't want to get taxed and let me live my life. I feel like people are coming together more off the mainstream stuff. And when you were bringing up about this satellite, I mean about the super bowl and the numbers that's the same thing they do with uh with the news they count airports airports hotels right six million people watched in an airport oh in a hotel lot because there's 30 000 people going through the airport they say there's 30 000 wow they've ended that cnn's ended the airport network the cultural
Starting point is 01:06:03 control is shattering so i i look at what's going on with like the democratic establishment. I look at what's going on with Joe Biden. And I'll tell you this, Joe Biden may have won because people hated Trump, but this is the establishment's last leg. I mean, come on, man, the Superbowl is, is, is falling the worst numbers in, in, in 13 years. Is it going to get better? I really doubt it. You got to understand the Superbow Bowl should have attracted more viewership. Because streaming is ubiquitous. People can watch more than ever. And they didn't do it.
Starting point is 01:06:31 And you know I'll tell you this. That number is up by one. Because we had the TV on in the background. While we were playing Magic the Gathering. We didn't care about the Super Bowl. It was just on TV. And we ignored it. I think for one way for sports to save themselves.
Starting point is 01:06:43 Is if they integrate the rest of the world. And start having teams from other countries play no no that's not the issue the issue is what entertains us is fracturing right so skateboarding for instance i've never been big into mainstream sports i've always been big into skateboarding skateboarding is a counterculture it's always been skateboarders do you know they go to to buildings and then actually cause damage to property. A lot of skateboarders don't want to admit it. And they'll be like, no, no, it's not that bad. Come on. When you wax up that ledge in front of the store, the planter, and then it turns black
Starting point is 01:07:13 and gray and it's permanently discolored. Yeah, people don't like that stuff. It was counterculture. There's videos all over Instagram of people fighting with security guards. I hate it. I can't stand it. Don't fight. You blow up the spot.
Starting point is 01:07:25 What you do is security guard comes out. You say one more try. He says, no, you guards. I hate it. I can't stand it. Don't fight. You don't, you blow up the spot. What you do is security guard comes out. You say one more try says, no, you leave. Then you wait, you come back later, or you just don't come back and go and skate somewhere where you're not going to bring too much heat or get somebody hurt. But this has always been counterculture. Mainstream sports has always been acceptable. And what's happening now is from music to movies to video games. There's so much. The options are endless that people aren't turning on one network anymore to watch one game to become relatable. They're trying to
Starting point is 01:07:53 find communities close to them. So one of the things I think is happening with the lockdowns is a desperate attempt to get everyone to watch the same news, to watch the same stories and to think the same thing because they want everyone to be unified under the same culture at the very least. But right now, facts don't make sense. The Democrats, you know, they're coming out saying Donald Trump incited a riot. And I talked to my friends and they're like, we know he did. Look what he said. And I'm like, that video is fake. The Democrats, they put this video up on impeachment and they edited out what Trump said they made. They fabricated fake tweets during an impeachment trial. Unbelievable. The Democrats fabricated fake tweets to accuse the date was wrong on one of them. And they added a verified badge to some random account to make
Starting point is 01:08:36 it seem like a public figure was saying certain things fake. And then Trump's defense called it out. The point is, there are people who believe entirely fake things on one side. There are people who believe entirely fake things on the other side. And there are a lot of people, probably the people who watch shows like this, who are mostly kind of on one side, but understand where the lies are coming from and understand what is really going on. What I often say is the fringe faction of conspiracy theorists on the right has no institutional power and is often rejected by mainstream conservatives, the Q stuff. Then you look at the mainstream left and Russiagate is mainstream. The fringe lunacy fake news on the left is the paramount of their tribe
Starting point is 01:09:18 and their culture. On the right, it's not. Regardless of whether or not you want to rag on them, you can call me biased. That's fine fine the fact is there is no bridge there's no in between anymore i i i there's that time magazine article about how the shadow campaign and the cabal you saw that one yeah i have my theory i sent it to a friend and they said this proves the democrats were helping save the election and protecting us from trump's voter fraud and i'm like how did you read that it doesn't matter it doesn't matter i know i'm not going to convince these people because they live in a different universe. There's no middle anymore. I am not a staunch conservative. I read that and they say conspiracy conspiracy is negative and people will just want to defend their tribe. So with the Super Bowl,
Starting point is 01:09:59 with the NBA, with these TV shows, the ratings are dropping because people can choose infinitely and communities are no longer unified. So now we're going to see hyper-tribalization. Because of this, we're starting to see people who are more likely to watch the Super Bowl and be Democrat, they go to the cities. And the people in the cities who are more likely to just want to be independent, left alone, move out into rural areas, kind of like what we did. And it's making the cities bluer and the rural areas redder.
Starting point is 01:10:26 And it's dividing everybody based on culture and geographic location. And history tells us exactly what that leads to. Yeah, I mean, I have a couple of opinions on that. One is that, do you think they want us unified? I think they want us all fighting with each other so we can't be unified. No, no. They want us fighting over wedge issues but unified over a set of facts. They want us to agree that, say, Trump is bad but argue about, say, abortion and taxation.
Starting point is 01:10:57 But in a way, it's also not working. I still find it perplexing that in August of last year, TV shows like Tucker Carlson were dominating NBA primetime games. And he was getting way more viewers than professional sports. And that's Tucker Carlson of Fox News, of all people. If you would have asked me back in the day when Tucker Carlson was still wearing a bow tie, if this would happen, I wouldn't ever believe you. I would think you would be crazy. But now he's this kind of symbol of anti-establishment they're trying to take him down and also we have to point out as i talked about i think in yesterday's show or two shows ago that apps like signal and telegram are becoming the
Starting point is 01:11:34 most popular apps in the world and they are far surpassing the number of downloads then facebook then twitter then youtube which shows you that the people are moving towards communication forms that are free, that are decentralized. And again, there's even some questions about that specifically with Telegram, specifically even with Signal, but that's what they usually represent. And moving to a form where they can't be canceled, and then they could say whatever they want without it being blocked. I love that. We also look at that, you know, it's just like, maybe people are tired of worshiping
Starting point is 01:12:03 people. Maybe like now, because like this show and your ability. Could you have done this 20 years ago? There was no thing set up like this. That's why they're banning everybody. They're trying to bring it all back under one roof. They can't do it. I mean, it's out.
Starting point is 01:12:17 The cat's out of the bag. And like, you know what's important? Authenticity. That is the collateral of today. And they can't because once you put a suit in between the the creator and the consumer and you have to go through this filter that changes everything what authenticity is what people want and when you look at something like i mean like the nba they they their uh salaries just keep going up, but nobody's watching it. Why is this?
Starting point is 01:12:47 Why is this? Could it be money from China? Now you got problems. You got Marxist Cuban wanting not to play the National Anthem. Now listen, man. Marxist Cuban. I watch it. I go to these events.
Starting point is 01:12:59 I'm like, why are we playing this? And then you start to really, like, I went to the World Series, the Dodgers, when they lost to the cheating Houston Astros, right? And I was on shrooms, right, at the World Series. And I was watching it, and I'm just like, man, this is just a giant military propaganda-like event. And that's what the National Anthem is uh the the national anthem is so i i i'm not really too concerned but we all know that mark cuban wants those chinese dollars well he he's he wanted to get rid of the national anthem yeah i think i i look you can call i don't think it's
Starting point is 01:13:37 fair to say the national anthem is a big propaganda event i don't know no no i'm saying well i i i don't i don't know why we play it before the event. Cultural unity. So it's similar to a lot of what they want. Now, the problem is, it's one thing when we as a country say that we're here for each other, it's a community, and we have to defend our shared values. So we sing the national anthem. And the history of the national anthem is actually pretty amazing. I think America is fantastic. I've been around the world and I've seen some horrifying places. Now, I think the Pledge of Allegiance is kind of creepy. Got to be completely honest. Like pledging allegiance.
Starting point is 01:14:09 Never been a big fan of pledging allegiance. America was built on defying the crown. But I understand the national anthem. I understand at big sporting events, we all come together. And here's what I see with these sporting events. When people can sit down and argue over things that are trivial to give an outlet to their anger and their frustrations that's not necessarily a bad thing we can talk about bread and circuses and it can be distracting that's a
Starting point is 01:14:33 bad thing we want people to have entertainment an outlet a release and something to look forward to and we want people to be unified in this country so i can respect that certain idea the problem is the unity they're trying to bring about is unity with china under this chinese system like luke people to be unified in this country. So I can respect that certain idea. The problem is the unity they're trying to bring about is unity with China under this Chinese system, like Luke was saying earlier. That's why Mark Cuban doesn't want the national anthem. He wants to sell the NBA in China. That's why the NBA didn't want us supporting Hong Kong. So if you want to say, hey, I think we should, they're going to do the national anthem. Yeah. But but the problem is you can see the erosion in the system. Look, we are not a one world government.
Starting point is 01:15:09 This this world is fractured by different ideologies and different countries. And the question you need to ask yourself is, would you rather live life like an American or would you rather live life like someone from China? In China, they weld your doors shut when you get sick and you die in your apartment. They take people to the police departments and shackle them to chairs and then torture them for insulting police. They have concentration camps. The U.S. is not a saint. This country has done bad things. But I tell you this right now, we are so tolerant that we're actually having these overly tolerant people destroy everything. We have given so much to those perceived to be victims and weak. It's hurting us.
Starting point is 01:15:49 This we need to fix. We need a decent balance. But I tell you this, in 50 years and 100 years, what kind of future do you want? A future under an American constitution that has been strengthened, guaranteeing your rights to live, to pursue happiness, or a Chinese system where everything is given up for the state, just like the fascists wanted. So when I hear they want to sing the national anthem, the national anthem to me represents the Constitution, which many of these establishment elites want to destroy, and especially our enemies. If we are fractured and we don't come together as a community who shares these values, we will be destroyed. There was a time where they didn't make it mandatory.
Starting point is 01:16:28 Now it's mandatory. And I'm fine with that position. I just go, why are we listening to this before a pro wrestling event? I think it's a bad song relatively. It's just kind of a crappy song. I love the song. I don't know why. It's like, oh, what is that? Batman? It's just some junky, bland melody that goes up and down, talking in like 1700s language.
Starting point is 01:16:50 It's like, dude, here's my problem. Here's my problem with that. Nationalism is only bad in America. Everywhere else. I mean, listen, when Conor McGregor or Tyson Fury goes and fights somewhere, they come inves, and they sing their national anthem with pride. Listen, I'm a nationalist when it comes to sporting events, when it comes to business. I don't think American lives are more important than Iraqi lives.
Starting point is 01:17:14 I'm a human being, and I think people have the right to raise their family, feed their family, take care of their family, and live their life. I don't like when we're going over there and bombing brown people, and we're acting like we're doing it to stop terrorism when it's all about making bankers rich, okay? But the notion of not being proud to be an American is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard of because everywhere else has huge pride in their country. When American fighters go to fight Brazilians. American fighters get booed down bad.
Starting point is 01:17:45 Doesn't matter who the Brazilian fighter is. Brazilians always support Brazilians. My problem is when we get like Americans that are like, I guess the term would be scum junkies that like don't do anything or contribute to society and say, I am great because I was born here. Like you're great because of your merit. If you do good, you're great. If you don't, you suck.
Starting point is 01:18:03 But I don't think that's a real thing for the most part. Dude, people that are like, I have the power because I'm an American, even though I'm fat and lazy. Where are these people? I grew up with them. But listen, man. It's okay to be like, I'm proud to be an American. I'm from Cortland, New York. 607 has the highest rate of welfare and incest in the whole entire state.
Starting point is 01:18:24 And I have a tattoo of it on my leg i love being from there there's a lot of junkiness there but those that's my tribe man and like there's nothing wrong with that and sometimes that's all people have listen tribalism based on these shared values of freedom and individual liberty and things that we cherish, I think is fantastic. Tribalism is fractured in this country because one faction despises the Constitution and these shared values of American culture. They hate America. I think it's funny because, you know, it's the it's the it's the old trope of like Kennedy on, you know, the liberals hate America. And I'm like, well, I don't think the liberals do. I think the far left does. Yes. And I think the establishment democrats just don't care so long
Starting point is 01:19:06 as they can line their pockets with gold that's the problem yeah and don't get me wrong i'm sorry i'm sorry the republicans too if you're a nationalism and nationalism is their enemy especially with you know eastern european countries like hungary and poland i mean i'm polish and i'm very proud of my heritage my history my family my bloodline no one else could say that they fought off the russians and the communists and the the nazis and the germans at the same time and then still didn't give a damn about it my family did it wasn't me i don't want to take credit for but at the same time that history that feeling that that that understanding of how bad it could get is passed down from family member to family member and it's it's a miracle that poland still exists
Starting point is 01:19:43 it still does. And because of that, we are eternally proud of our country. But that's why there's such a threat against individuals, because multinational corporations can't easily come in and ruin and take over everything like they want to when you have a strong family, when you have this identity of a group of individuals. And this is why're seeing eastern european countries not be taken over just like france germany uh the united kingdom and other countries that are infiltrated by the powers that be in special interests that benefit off of human suffering so so there's there's another story i want to pull up and this is this is why america is is great the way it's set up can i make
Starting point is 01:20:22 a clarification before we do that there's a difference between patriotism and constitutionalism. Like, if you're an American but you don't support the Constitution, I don't support that type of Americanism and I don't like that kind of patriotism because you can still be an American and piss all over the Constitution, but you don't even have to be an American to support the U.S.
Starting point is 01:20:40 Constitution. And that's, I think, more patriotic to our country. So that's where my belief and my love for nationalism breaks down. So we have this story from Axios. States leapfrog federal government in restraining tech. So Axios reports, states across the U.S. unwilling to wait for the slower gears of the federal government to turn are moving aggressively to regulate the tech industry. Why it matters? States famously serve as laboratories of democracy, testing out innovative laws that other states or the federal government can adopt.
Starting point is 01:21:10 But their experiments can sometimes be half-baked or have unintended consequences, and the regulations can run afoul of the courts. The big picture, the one thing I want to highlight in this is the fight against censorship. They say it closer to the bottom, our thought bubble. Growing partisan polarization at the state level guarantees the introduction and potential passage of more party line tech bills
Starting point is 01:21:32 that wouldn't stand a chance of moving forward in the more narrowly divided federal government. It's likely, for instance, that we'll see more proposals out of red states aimed at punishing tech
Starting point is 01:21:40 for perceived censorship of conservatives, while blue states may follow Maryland's lead on digital taxes, among other tech priorities. OK, this is a good thing about America, but you got to understand where this might lead to. I say it's a good thing because if the federal government won't stop the big tech companies
Starting point is 01:21:57 that are shutting down free speech and censoring people, the states can do it on an individual level. Ron DeSantis of Florida recently announced they're going to be proposing this bill that would punish big tech companies for censoring political individuals and regular people, giving them the right to appeal and things like that. We also heard other countries may do something similar. Don't get me wrong. It's not just about America. But in this country, the way the states are divided up, you could go move to Florida if you want protections against big tech censoring you, if they pass this law.
Starting point is 01:22:32 But where this goes, what happens if Florida says free speech must be guaranteed and they tell Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, if you ban people, we will fine you a million dollars. Well, the big tech companies might say, fine, we won't operate in your state at all. And then the state and the people who are there will have to come up with their own solutions for social networking and financial services. And it will happen because they're not just going to be like, oh, no, no. Immediately you're going to see big investors being like, this is our opportunity to move into the state and seize up 30 million new customers. So then what's the alternative? The big tech companies will say, OK, in your state only, anybody who's there whose IP address registers from your state will have free and open access and no censorship. But then in New York state,
Starting point is 01:23:09 they say you must ban all the hate speech. New York becomes deep blue where it's dominated by only woke far left cultists and Florida becomes a free speech free for all. The people in Florida are more likely to have access to open information, to be challenged, to be de-radicalized. And the people in New York will hyper-radicalize into an insane ideology controlled by those big tech companies and then propped up by the uniparty that controls the state. Like I was saying earlier, it ultimately leads to people dividing up red people in red areas, blue people in blue areas, and then entrenching in their beliefs and then eventually throwing things at each other. I totally agree with that. But I think Florida should do that. I think we all should do that. I agree. I agree.
Starting point is 01:23:50 And listen, if New York wants to make it so tech can censor everybody, they're going to really hurt themselves' creativity. All the creative people are going to move to Florida, and then they're going to pay a deep price for that. Brain drain. That's what they call it when a lot of people flee and then they're gonna pay a deep price for that brain drain that's what they call it when a lot of people flee countries because they're not allowed to express themselves freely in other countries and and I'm even thinking about moving to Florida myself to be honest with you I'm thinking about
Starting point is 01:24:13 my baby's mama would be open to it you can buy guns yeah you walk in you got your ID you can buy a gun it's one of the easier states you got freedom it's hot and muggy all the time I know and they got alligators dude and i ain't down with that and then and then you become florida man yep i like florida man i'm a weirdo the weirder the better exactly i lived i like that i lived in miami for a couple years
Starting point is 01:24:37 actually really close to that that you know migrant detention center that was all over the news and uh it rains all the time the rain's kind of awesome it's like you're you're in a monsoon whenever it rains lizards everywhere it's so cool we would go out and just catch geckos and lizards and then bring them in to deal with the bugs because there's a lot of bugs there's bugs everywhere so i'm like here's here's your choice giant bugs all over the house or lizards all over yeah that's what we're talking about dude tampa's got chickens just running around. Yes. Yeah, we had chickens all over the place.
Starting point is 01:25:07 No, yeah. So like where I lived, we'd just like be driving down the street. There'd be chickens everywhere. Yeah. And they were someone's chickens. And the chickens would just go home later. But here's the other thing, too. We also had like we had problems with illegal immigrants who were coming in.
Starting point is 01:25:20 There were home invasions. You're out in the middle of nowhere. Not a lot of cops that's the trade-off man if you want to be responsible of yourself be responsible for yourself live out the middle of nowhere you might see more crime you might see chickens running around there might be a rafter of turkeys running through your yard or something you got to chase them off or control the turkey and deer populations maybe that's responsibility but you have the choice you have the freedom you can do what you want on your property did you get nailed by a
Starting point is 01:25:44 hurricane while you were there no we almost did i think i think we almost didn't make you nervous yeah no hurricanes in camp and the house the house we had had uh uh shutters like these hurricane shutters you gotta you gotta you were inland even a little bit there we were in miami what are you talking about i remember visiting you i remember we bought some chickens yeah yeah we let them loose inland is relative bro we were in miami we were we were within a couple dozen miles of the coastline in the floodplains so like we were like yeah go to the second floor when the hurricane comes i guess because we don't want to flood i had questions about the social media acting in florida and in new york so if you were a florida resident and you could post and they're like okay we're not going to censor
Starting point is 01:26:21 anyone in florida you'd see everybody that posted in new York. But if you were in New York, would then you just not see the stuff from Florida? That's already happening. But then if you responded to one of their comments, they just wouldn't see your response. You'd wonder, why aren't they responding to me? So would they have to block everyone? No, no, no, no, no. What happens right now is that if you're – you can do this with a VPN. So those that are listening, if you have a VPN, say Virtual Shield,
Starting point is 01:26:43 you can turn your VPN to, say say Germany and then go on Twitter and you'll see a bunch of tweets where it says this violated German law. So you'll see the response violation of German law, things like that. So people were doing experiments with this a while ago. They may have changed it. So it doesn't say that anymore, but it uses something you'd get a message saying this tweet is that is in violation of this country. So you can't see it. you know it's there you just can't look at it so well actually when you drive through states depending on what that state's politics are i've had people tell me that the news that they kind of get force-fed on your phone changes depending on what political leanings that state is definitely definitely because it's all about how ads are served.
Starting point is 01:27:27 So if you were in a red area, they're going to assume you want to see red news outlets. So if they want to make money, they got to do it. The Daily Wire, they run ads on Facebook. The only reason they would do that is if the ads generated eyeballs for their site, which allows them to make money. If the cost of the ad is, if they're spending more money on ads than they're making, they stop doing it.
Starting point is 01:27:50 So Facebook says, we need to make sure these ads have a big impact and work for the Daily Wire. So if you're in a red area, more likely to get it. And I'm sure the Daily Wire chooses some of these metrics too, saying we want people in conservative areas who are this age and, you know, and are likely to be male or whatever. I don't know if they care about gender, but you can do that too. They can even do religions and things like that. So yeah, you drive in. Your notifications are going to change. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:13 And it's hyper-polarizing everything. It's just the dominoes falling over, man. It's already happening. It's going to get real weird and freaky when you're like – you're going to be in West Virginia or Wyoming or something. And then you're going to look at your phone and it's going to be like, wow, the world's on fire. And then you turn on New York VPN and it's all candy canes and rainbows and people holding hands and singing.
Starting point is 01:28:33 And then you're like, I can literally see the country burning to the ground around you, but you're isolated in this bubble and you have no idea what's going on. That's what's kind of it's kind of what's going on. Right. Exactly. Right. People are getting the information they want, maybe not the information they need. idea what's going on that's what's kind of it's kind of what's going on right exactly right people are getting what the information they want maybe not the information they need and i just see it
Starting point is 01:28:50 happening it's just an interesting thing you have these blue check marks and i always say block is if you don't know who they are and somehow you'd be like i'm the editor of wacky monkey magazine right and i got 400,000 subscribers. Like, how did you get that many followers? It's unbelievable, man. There are channels on YouTube that do nothing but like get a molten hot, a red hot nickel ball.
Starting point is 01:29:14 Yes. And then like melt things with it. There are channels that just crush things on hydraulic presses. I had an idea for starting the electrocution channel where we electrocute random objects. My idea though was
Starting point is 01:29:24 the voltage would be based on the amount of live viewership or shares so then you got to tell everybody keep sharing keep sharing we're getting enough views and then you know increase the voltage or whatever or amperage or wattage whatever i'm not an electrician and uh but the point is people really can isolate one particular thing that entertains them and they watch it forever you hear what you like we goes back it goes back to reagan taking away the opposite opinion now we got two networks two cable news networks telling you what you want to hear yeah you were saying reagan um that before reagan you every time a news network would air an opinion that they would have to show legally the opposite opinion is that what it was
Starting point is 01:30:01 it was like and a famous thing was the garrison files where this law this uh lawyer garrison went on television said he had the right to tell that side of the kennedy assassination and that's kind of why they took it away man you know here's my whole thing about the social media and hollywood and all that stuff is like it's all ran by rich kids man rich kids real you know like i said malcolm Malcolm X and, you know, the Unabomber both said rich liberal kids are the thing. And, you know, why do why do rich people want more taxes? Well, because they have accountants that can figure out how to not pay those taxes. Right. It's actually simple. If you make one hundred million dollars and you pay a very high progressive percentage, it doesn't matter
Starting point is 01:30:48 to a rich person because the percentage isn't what matters. So I'm actually in favor of a progressive tax and I'll explain. So and even they are too. It's a complicated process. The issue is we need bigger and bigger tax brackets up, you know, higher and higher you go. If someone has $100 million per year in liquid cash coming in, which is like obscene, it doesn't happen. And they pay 60% of taxes. They still have $40
Starting point is 01:31:10 million to invest. And look, power attracts power. That kind of money, you can make a ton of investments, risk nothing. You can go on Robinhood and put it all in GameStop because you don't care about dumping a million. What does it matter to you? You make a hundred, you know, it's a drop in the hat. You can take big risks and make big money and you have little to worry about because you only need a couple hundred to live comfortably like a wealthy person. You got a bunch of houses you own. You don't care. You can do whatever you want. And then the cash is there. But if someone who makes $200,000 is paying the same percentage, then they only have, what, $70,000 to actually spend?
Starting point is 01:31:48 They have no money to invest. So what ends up happening is, this way I'm not a fan of the flat tax. If we had a really high flat tax or the problem we have now is the progressive tax stops after I think $350,000 or something, People who make just above that are struggling to actually grow and move upward to become the ultra wealthy elites and actually run these businesses. And the ultra wealthy elites are creating shields for themselves the more taxes they create. It keeps people from becoming from becoming wealthy.
Starting point is 01:32:18 The more taxes they put on, the harder it is to move up. For sure. For regular people. Most tax. I mean, the federal income tax was signed by woodrow wilson like a thief in the night on christmas eve i mean it's just a fact there was never a vote on it and we never had it before that we're supposed to only pay taxes well for when the when the war for war the real the real issue is the federal reserve federal reserve gives
Starting point is 01:32:41 them the ability to control the flow of the economy and how the country spends its money. And the taxes is just a way of recuperating and facilitating the machine. You know what I mean? You know what my favorite tax is? What? No tax. Yeah. But it's not just taxes.
Starting point is 01:32:56 It's also regulations. It's also rules. It's also inspections. It's also all the little middle management things that the government takes as a way of supposedly helping people. But they're created by the big oligarchs who keep people down. It's the corruption. Yeah. It's the corruption.
Starting point is 01:33:12 If a bunch of people got together and said anybody who works on – let's say you have 100 acres of land. And you got a bunch of your friends, 100 of your friends each live on one acre and they're all living on this property. And there's a stream. And this one dude keeps taking a dump in it and you all get together and say from now on no one's allowed to take a dump in the stream you've just regulated the stream usage that's a good thing that's well that's because they did this on purpose they made its regulation so everyone flip out i have no problems with protections right i mean if they called it protections i think we'd be okay with that listen
Starting point is 01:33:45 that's what it is the issue is when one guy goes to you know a plurality not even a majority and says hey if we all collude together we can trick everybody into diverting the stream into our properties so we have more access and we'll call it a regulation oh no although we have to do it i'm so sorry that's the problem problem. The system has become corrupted and tainted. Yeah. Rules are fine when the rules benefit the people. I'm not a laissez-faire capitalist. I think we need some regulations. The problem is our social programs and our regulations are typically to benefit the wealthy, to cheat, to change the rules. 100%. To help them out. The taxes do that. The stimulus does that. And the regulations do that.
Starting point is 01:34:22 It's a revolving door of corruption meant to keep the poor poor and not allow for legitimate capitalism. I say get rid of fee of entry. That's the number one way that you control people's ability to move on. I mean, look at what we're doing with doctors. When you come out of med school, you're so deep in debt, you don't have a lot of room to maneuver to even set up your own practice. So you've got to go into these plug-and-play situations where if you don't play ball with these these pharmaceutical companies the health
Starting point is 01:34:50 care system you good luck on growing okay and then if you want to open a restaurant like why do i like food trucks because i think that's a way to just go boom you're getting right into it and you're starting to make money and to open a restaurant you have to have so much money to open a restaurant that is fee of entry that allows the elites to be able to move and create stuff where the port's a lot harder that's the point i was saying about a flat tax or a limited progressive tax because you could tax a guy who makes 100 million dollars at 80 he still has 20 million dollars he can snap his fingers and make 10 food trucks. Whereas a regular guy who's being taxed at 10%, but only makes $100,000 a year,
Starting point is 01:35:29 can't do that. So I get it. I understand. It's not like this person deserves it or doesn't deserve it. The amount of money doesn't determine whether you're a hard worker or not. I'm just saying, I think a progressive tax makes more sense. But admittedly, this isn't particularly complicated. We do got to jump over to Super Chats now because we're going a little bit over. So if you haven't already,

Starting point is 01:36:22 Yes. Anyway, let's read some super chats. We got Samuel Pyle who says, I have over doubled my money in Dogecoin since the beginning of the month. Well, congratulations. Good, sir. Boom. Yeah, we were talking about crypto deeply before the show. I love crypto, dude. I'm big in it.
Starting point is 01:36:36 You were saying AA. What's it called? AA. AAVA, man. AAVA. It's gone up in the last year 100,000%. I have a podcast called The Union of the Unwanted. Luke,
Starting point is 01:36:48 you were on the first one. We had a big Bitcoin episode on it. If you want to check that out, it's a really great show. We got Troy Rupert says, make Jail Cuomo trend. I like that. I'll tweet it right now. Adrian Sutton says, Cuomo killed more people than 9-11.
Starting point is 01:37:05 That's true. Slick Bossman724 says, Tim, no one needs an AR-15. What they really need is an M134 handheld minigun. Well, there you go. I'm down. Tomato, tomato. That's right.
Starting point is 01:37:19 Flimsy Fox says, In reference to last night's show, just use Mastodon. I know that place reeks of far leftists, but the worst that can happen is that you don't get featured on the front page. Yeah, but they isolate themselves. They cut out other servers, so you're better off using a different federated server. I think Gab is part of the Fediverse, so you can use Gab, right?
Starting point is 01:37:36 Tony says, last super chat I send on YouTube. Need to stop supporting the systems that hate us. Gonna join Timcast for our pillow. Keep up the great work, you see? That's how we do it. We make our own pillow. Our website. That's right.
Starting point is 01:37:50 Tammy says, in light of the time story, why are the Dems complaining that Trump isn't admitting there was no, is that fraud? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:37:57 How do they reconcile the two? I mean, I guess the idea of the time story is they're not really admitting to doing anything. They're just saying they were fortifying an election. So everything's fine.
Starting point is 01:38:08 Have you ever heard of nonlinear warfare? Yeah. Do you ever think that that's part of that? Like you put that out. Now the people in the theorist community are all like, see, we told you. And then the other people are like, I'm not going to read that. I don't care. We won.
Starting point is 01:38:23 We don't care. And then it's like everybody fighting. It's Gina Carano saying, don't demonize your neighbor. And I'm screaming ban her, ban her. And then an employee wearing a political mask and they say, don't you dare fire her. And it works because people have no spine. All right, let's see.
Starting point is 01:38:38 Allison C says, saw a video this morning on minds of a woman picking up insulin for her son. She said it was $60 per box under Trump. Now it's $500 thanks to Biden's executive orders. But hey, no more mean tweets. That's right. Well, y'all voted for him.
Starting point is 01:38:52 Unbelievable. One of the first things Biden did was suspend that rule. What a piece of garbage. Yeah, man. Garbage. It's not even him that was a clone anyways. Justin says, Sam Tripoli, ears are bleeding now. Why so loud?
Starting point is 01:39:06 Heck, I am a gorilla. A lot of coffee. Omar Talat says, Tim, I heard on last night's episode you guys talk about masks. A Danish study, which is the only RTC, found that they provide no statistically significant advantage. We also have considered how it affects kids psychologically. That's true. But, I mean, aren't there uh studies in the u.s that show efficacy i don't i don't know ask the uh stewardesses on american airlines i'm worried about people who will like see the one study and be like that's the one or the one poll and be like that's the one
Starting point is 01:39:35 you know it's like everybody just they'll pick the data they want aaron hohench says sam tripoli is doing a show at float fest i am come see me uh march uh i think it's march 13 11 oh it's 8th through the 11th scott k says my grandpa was one of the first nursing home victims in buffalo new york he was in a nursing home for just rehab was supposed to be in and out my dad couldn't say goodbye goodbye. That's so messed up, dude. Cuomo's sick. Yeah. Richard Thabod says,
Starting point is 01:40:10 get Cuomo, but what about Michigan and New Jersey's governors that did the same? Yeah. 100%. They all did it, man. All the, I mean, like,
Starting point is 01:40:20 you know, you just, I don't know what the left's defense of the Democrats are. I mean, what is the, I mean, they, they brought, I mean, like, you know, you just I don't know what the left's defense of the Democrats are. I mean, what is that? I mean, they they they brought I mean, the whole theory is they came over here to tank the economy and they still had a weird election. Am I right? I mean, it's kind of weird. All right.
Starting point is 01:40:39 We got Keb Lee from Star Trek with the with the first link. The chain is forged. The first speech. All right. Let me start Trek with the first link the chain is forged. The first speech. All right. Let me start over. With the first link the chain is forged. The first speech censured. The first thought forbidden.
Starting point is 01:40:53 The first freedom denied. Chains us all irrevocably. The first time any man's freedom is trodden on, we are all damaged. That's from Star Trek. And that's from The Measure of a Man. The name of the episode. I think that was. Was that?
Starting point is 01:41:08 Was that what it was? I mean, that's what they said about when after Alex Jones and Owen Benjamin and people were just like, I don't like what they're saying. And it's just like, hey, man, you got to protect everyone, not just the people you like, because eventually they come back around. That's the biggest thing with the the left they don't realize censorship came from the right the religious right on lifestyles and who you could date and all that and what you could do and the music you could play and the stuff you could do it came from the right to left now it's left to the right eventually it will come back around andrew o says as tim dillon said they are the cuomo corleone crime family. There you go. Yep.
Starting point is 01:41:46 Neo Libertarian says 70 to 80 percent of nursing home patients room and board is paid for by state funded Medicaid. Dead nursing home patients equals less state funded Medicaid. One hundred percent. And they're facing a budget crisis. So there was a way for him to reduce the costs. Man. Kevin C. says, Tim, have on Adam Curry of No Agenda Podcast. He's creating Podcast
Starting point is 01:42:08 2.0 to combat censorship of apps like Apple that threaten to ban content. He can set you on the path of your Fediverse idea. Funny guy, tech smart, best pod. Cool. We'll look into it. The Gray One says, as someone who lost their grandmother because of our King Cuomo, he deserves to face
Starting point is 01:42:23 prison for life. 13,000 are gone. Gone. Scum. Gets a bloody Emmy. Yep. I can't believe they gave. It's like giving Obama a Nobel Peace Prize. Like, what are you doing?
Starting point is 01:42:38 It's like also like giving Brooklyn Nine-Nine a. What is that one award show? And they got you get Brooklyn Nine-Nine gets an award. What was the international? I mean, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, eh? What is that one award show? Brooklyn Nine-Nine gets an award? What was the international? I mean, Brooklyn Nine-Nine's funny. That's a great show, just to say. Okay, okay. Guess I was wrong on that reference.
Starting point is 01:42:54 My apologies. I like Andy Samberg. Yeah, I love it. Yeah, that show's actually really funny. Okay, I take it back. I retract that, Andy. It was a joke, and it did land at all. James says, retract that, Andy. It was a joke and it did land at all. James
Starting point is 01:43:05 says, the super chat is to pay for Santa Claus to tell you his favorite bedroom word. Must say the actual word once you get behind the paywall. What is that? I don't know. Bad words? I don't know. I guess. Our pillow? Yeah, there you go. Blake Hamer says, Tim, the violence is everywhere. It hasn't
Starting point is 01:43:22 gone anywhere. Just in my city alone, Columbus, GA, about an hour south of Atlanta, we've had 16 murders already this year. People just don't care anymore. Yeah. There's a lot of things I don't care about anymore. You know, Antifa, there was a story I was like, we could pull it up where people in Seattle are getting fed up and screaming at Antifa because they're snapping.
Starting point is 01:43:41 And I'm just like, yeah, but what am I going to say? Said a million times. I can only tell you Antifa is bad 50 billion times. And then what? Hey, guys, remember when I told you Antifa was bad?'re snapping, and I'm just like, yeah, but what am I going to say? I've said it a million times. I can only tell you Antifa's bad 50 billion times. And then what? Hey, guys, remember when I told you Antifa was bad? They're bad again today, and another thing happened. It's just getting frustrating talking about the same thing. Mao Damaiti says, Tim,
Starting point is 01:43:55 read my message on mines. Lydia, heart Luke is dope. There you go. Don't do drugs. Publius the Good says, Catherine Austin Fitz was a government official and put together maps of where the riots were, and they were identical to the city redevelopment maps. This was an organized criminal enterprise by the Democrats.
Starting point is 01:44:16 Interesting. There's something about that with Minneapolis, too. Like Agenda 2030, where they wanted to just get rid of all these businesses and build up it's the theme from robocop where they started riots and civil unrest so they could buy up the property on the cheap after destroying it yeah and uh katherine austin fits i actually interviewed on my channel we are change really smart person she's we should we should have her on the show yeah that'd be great queen nidus says
Starting point is 01:44:45 the great reset is indeed a spiritual thing mexico is running ads for it and it has a cross and catholic sign on it people in the u.s need to look at the propaganda being run in other countries and compare it to the usa kind of like build back better right everyone in europe all these europeans saying build back better and joe biden too well he's plagiarist, so I'm not so sure about it. But unbelievable. Right. And nobody talks about it. Larry Goddard says, holy ass, a wild Sam Tripoli has appeared.
Starting point is 01:45:13 I lost to you and you two. Not going to lose this time. Ultra joke ball used. Miss. Damn you, Sam Tripoli. What do you like? Pokemon jokes or something? No, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:45:23 Anytime anyone mentions my name, I feel better. That's right. Ron Garian says, I'm glad Tim finally got the machine on the show. It's just weird to see him with a shirt on. Oh my goodness. Is that you? No, he's trying to say I look like Bert Kreischer. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 01:45:40 David Archibald says, for putting your money where your mouth is I will send you my idea for a show for special education math instruction via jobs email address cool right on and don't forget
Starting point is 01:45:50 go to timcast.com become a member but also click shop and get our pillow it is we you and I together started a pillow company
Starting point is 01:45:59 and the pillow belongs to both of us the only thing is like in communism I benefit greatly from it profit and then use your labor to do whatever I want.
Starting point is 01:46:07 It's actually very communist. It's very on brand. Yeah, beautiful. It's amazing. I'm smart, aren't I? Mitch McGilvery. In Australia, it is only the state of Victoria
Starting point is 01:46:16 that is in a five-day lockdown. Victoria also banned the ANZAC Day March in April, but have allowed Chinese New Year celebrations. Victoria is our California. Wow, there you go. Is that where Perth is?
Starting point is 01:46:30 Australia has a China problem for sure, man. Those fires were a lot about them selling a lot of their water to China. It got pretty bad there. Remember, that was the beginning of 2020. We're like, it can't get worse than this. And then it just kept rolling. Robodad says, all you need to do is watch Disney's versions of Chicken
Starting point is 01:46:51 Little and you see it all unfolding now. Oh, yeah. The sky is falling. Joey Sibley says, hey, Tim, look into some of the Star Wars comics, specifically the one where Darth Vader bleeds a lightsaber crystal red. Really? Is that why they're red?
Starting point is 01:47:08 They're like regular crystals and then he like puts blood on them or something? Robert Johnson says, love the podcast, you guys. I only see this getting worse. There is too many issues in this country. There isn't a simple fix for any of this nonsense. I agree. Doesn't mean it's only going to get worse, though. It is going to get more complex.
Starting point is 01:47:23 I agree with that statement. I don't think that there's a solution in the sense that we go back to the way things were. You know what I mean? I think whatever comes after this will be dramatically different, and I wouldn't call it a solution. I would call it a change. We just hope the good guys win, but sometimes I'm not too confident. What do you think about Obama? I mean, a lot of this
Starting point is 01:47:39 correlates with Obama basically made it legal for the U.S. government to spread propaganda to the people. I mean, if you get off of these social media sites, it's amazing how wonderful the world is. And I know that's weird because we have awful things happening in Yemen and we want to stop that. And then there's this child sex trafficking stuff going on. We want to stop that but i mean i really do believe if you look inside and work on yourself and hope help others on a local level that's where we start to make the change yeah
Starting point is 01:48:11 victoria says ben shapiro predicted this idea of tribal capitalism several months ago i definitely see it coming jim jam tells me to sell our pillow on reddit it will sell like hot cakes on there and i know what the pillow is ours, but of course like in communism, I run the command economy and I can do whatever I want and then profit greatly to buy the things that I also want. And then KM mentions Death Wish. The Charles Bronson movies are way
Starting point is 01:48:36 better. Death Wish 3 is the best IMO. The mechanic is also a great one. Cool. Danny August Mason says, Tim, I'm an actor and filmmaker. I would love to work with y'all and luke start your own platform and let's tell some amazing stories sending love from austin texas you know what i really want to do you guys should look up gellert's grave the story of uh the legendary hound in wales it's an amazing story i think it's wales and i want to do a short film
Starting point is 01:49:00 telling that story i don't want i'm not going to tell it now because I think I've told it before, but it's a brutal story. It'll be an excellent short film. K. Lowe says, If the Great Reset fully comes to the US, I imagine we see the rise of serfdom, people who won't own anything and will need to work the land for the lord paramount of Gates Farms. Well, yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 01:49:19 That's right. Colin Stephen says, Good pillow brought to you by Kami, made in China, built by by uyghur slave labor and manufacturing cost of 50 cents now for the low low price of 99.99 to be fair i've given praise to good pillow by david hogg because he wants american-made union labor and uh i i think it's great good if you want to make your pillow and it's supporting american workers and all stuff sure i don't know. What a capitalist.
Starting point is 01:49:45 Seriously. Yeah, absolutely. Well, good for him. Publius the Good says, Did you know it was Hitler who said that we should promote large national sporting events so people don't know what the government is doing? The number of athletes in the Olympics increased tenfold during his government.
Starting point is 01:49:59 And it was ancient Rome that created the Colosseum and it was breads and circuses that have existed well before that. It's not a new idea. You know, people like to compare things to Nazi Germany, but sometimes these things were taken by the Nazis. They didn't invent all of it, though they were despotic psychopaths with, you know, I'll put it this way. I think a lot of the Nazi soldiers are the definition of spineless, pathetic cowards, because there were a lot of a lot of them who knew what they were doing is wrong but they were just following orders they knew they were committing crimes and they didn't
Starting point is 01:50:28 care is that what cops are doing though it's not the same i mean to be completely fair i mean obviously what happened in world you know world war ii in germany is like some of the darkest evil we've ever seen is it you know and communists don't get me wrong also some of the darkest evil we've ever seen. Cops locking someone's business down is bad. And I think it violates people's rights, but it's still way far away. Now, what China is doing and what and Disney's protecting them is where we're like, yeah, that's really bad. And Disney's like, thanks for the help.
Starting point is 01:50:58 Concentration camp runners. Well, just some of the reports that come out. I can't even mention what what went on. I mean, the BBC had a report of a whistleblower that was talking about how she had to strip down young women, tie them up. And we can't even get into the details of what they do. But it's absolutely sickening and disgusting and too vile to even mention. And it would get this channel banned if I described what the Chinese government is doing, according to this whistleblower that's reported on the BBC. Why is there a group of people on the, I call them the black pillars,
Starting point is 01:51:28 and some of them are friends of mine. I think I love their research. They seem to say this isn't what's happening. Like that those camps aren't what we're being told, that this is part of this Cold War propaganda. What are your thoughts on that? I think Joe Biden is deferential to China. So why would this horrifying story come out?
Starting point is 01:51:50 I think there are people who are desperately trying to tell us what's going on. And you have special interests like Joe Biden and his family who are very favorable to China and don't want us to know about it. They just can't control everything. I mean, China's known for organ harvesting. For sure. The social credit score. It's not a stretch of the imagination. I'm with China's known for organ harvesting. For sure. The social credit score. It's not a stretch of the imagination.
Starting point is 01:52:08 I'm with you. There's videos of it. Yeah, when you had that drone footage of the people that were black bagged and moved around from one railroad station
Starting point is 01:52:15 to another, when you have the whistleblowers corroborate statements, when you have the Chinese government going after individuals who criticize the Chinese government outside of the country,
Starting point is 01:52:23 going after their families inside of China. In America. In America. There was a warning to Chinese citizens or Chinese Americans who were in America because the Chinese government would come here and come after them. We'll say Tiananmen Square. The Chinese government often wants people to forget what they did, how they moved tanks
Starting point is 01:52:39 and murdered a bunch of... There was a major NYPD officer that was caught working as a Chinese spy, spying on the Tibetan community in New York City. I think the black pill community is suffering from cognitive dissonance. Well, that is a weird thing because a lot of them are like,
Starting point is 01:52:54 it's not what it is. This is part of the... Basically, the Cold War propaganda. I go, listen, man. China has a history of this. I don't understand why you think that would be great forward it is a fair suggestion because propaganda is big and u.s propaganda
Starting point is 01:53:11 machine is huge so there may be levels of that unfortunately sickening as it could be so it's always good to keep an open mind but i mean there's a lot of evidence but overall it's being extremely downplayed especially when you compare it to Russia. Compare the coverage Russia gets, compare the coverage China gets. And that's why I have a problem with Mark Cuban. Like they brought it up to him and he goes, I'm not going to get involved in other countries' politics. And I'm like, what are you talking about, man? You're fully invested in what's going on in this country and uh the divide and conquer that's going on that the nba has been pushing really hard on everybody and you know it's like and i'm sorry
Starting point is 01:53:51 you're jewish too you you you aren't offended by camps i mean like that should be a big thing i am armenian my family i have my grandfather's brothers and sisters were shot down. Genocide's very, very, very sensitive subject for me. I'm not okay with camps like that. I don't understand how Mark you could be somebody who's like, I'm not getting into local politics. I'm like, what are you talking about? It's an excuse. LeBron James, Steve Kerr, all of them. It's all individuals.
Starting point is 01:54:18 It's all an excuse to be like, oh, I can't get involved. It's local politics, but it keeps out of my checks. Give me that money. Yeah. Robert Brainerd says Ian is the Juan Williams to Tim Pool's podcast. I have heard that before. But it's not entirely accurate because Juan Williams disagrees with them on basically everything. And Ian disagrees on some things.
Starting point is 01:54:37 You know what I mean? Vocally. But Juan Williams basically says, the mainstream media's narrative is always true. And then Jesse Waters goes, Juan, what are you doing? That's funny. Steven Luna says, glad to see this collaboration. Five great minds. Shout out to Ghost and Ninja.
Starting point is 01:54:52 Oh, yeah. Those are my kids. Heather Coran says, Nielsen places a box on some TVs in certain areas and extrapolates data for the area. I had one not that long ago, free cable. Unless you have the box, it isn't tracked. Yeah, so what they'll do is they send, like, I got an offer for the Nielsen and I don't care. They send you $2 or something and they're like, hey, do this. And I'm like, I don't care.
Starting point is 01:55:12 We don't have cable anyway. So it's like, well, actually, no, that's not true. We did at the time. And now it's all digital. But their metrics are just basically like polling. It could just be wrong. Digital numbers. Those are legit numbers. Publius the Good says, well, when CIA psychologist JCR Licklider came up with the idea for the Internet, it was solely for the purpose to see if their propaganda was working.
Starting point is 01:55:38 They needed feedback to see what you are looking at and believing. Is that true? Probably. Great way to get yep you know hapa san says the impeachment is just a big distraction to keep the senators from doing their jobs and to get the public to ignore the fact that biden has signed over 50 executive orders lots of bad ones to be honest keep up the good work everybody yes they could be passing covid relief but they're wrapped up in impeachment. So conservatives don't care.
Starting point is 01:56:08 They hate the impeachment as it is. They're complaining about it. This is keeping Democrats from complaining with the fact that they're not being served by the people they just hired. You also see now like the Republican Party is begging for donations. Nobody's giving them donations. So whatever the last four years was, you are seeing the death of the two party system in my humble opinion. I think so. I think Republic. So it's funny when I see people say Republicans shouldn't form a new party because they'll just lose. And
Starting point is 01:56:36 I'm like, but they'll just lose anyway, because already a large portion of Republicans who voted in 2020 say they won't vote again. Your best bet is to at least try to win some third-party seats for a Patriot Party or something else. Otherwise, the GOP bleeds voters and then just loses anyway. Let me ask you. Go for it.
Starting point is 01:56:56 Yeah, yeah. Lincoln won because of a four-party system. There was a four-party run. That's why Abraham Lincoln... Expanding the system is greatly beneficial, I think, to society. You get great minds. Also, what is it? Well, that was just before the Civil War, man.
Starting point is 01:57:09 That's why there was fracturing, you know? Well, the South may have actually seceded if Lincoln wasn't president. So who knows? Well, I mean, that's a very interesting thing, too. But how much of this is, again, going back to that notion that the elites could do everything? We have the election. People feel like there's something funny going on with that okay we have this game stop thing where these elites make a bet it blows up in their face and what do they do oh we're gonna stop the trading so we could stop this how much of this is just to make us think we have no power
Starting point is 01:57:41 and no say and this is the last the death rattle because i believe we're waking up to an awakening i think it's always i think it's been that way most of my life that the system is they have full control the the dnc and the rnc are private organizations they can kick out bernie if they want trump's you know stormed in they couldn't stop him i think i think we're i think you're right the end of the two-party system you said there right yep i think we're seeing these these two powerful private entities struggling to maintain the system in the in the face of the internet so they're desperately trying to get to get control of things but it may not work in the end i don't know yeah it's massively vulnerable to social pressure like if we orchestrated or if people orchestrated 10 million people pulled all their
Starting point is 01:58:21 money out of the banks at the same time on the same day. Just crash all the banks. Buy Bitcoin, yo. Hey, to clarify that guy's super chat, I think Biden hasn't signed 50 executive orders. A lot of them are memorandums, if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, it's a colloquial term. But he signed a lot of papers, at least 50 orders. One of them is like, what am I signing?
Starting point is 01:58:40 Yeah. Gregory Nicholas says, Ian, no. Government should not take minds as code also all code should be open source any software where the code is hidden is tantamount to slavery look up richard stallman creator of the of the gnu open source project and bring on as guest stall i think i think ian's the free the code guy i don't know what they're saying. But the government has access to Minds Code. They wouldn't be taking anything. They're utilizing open information. ASDFZXCV says, Internet attention addiction is causing global trickle-down effects of 21st century.
Starting point is 01:59:15 Good, bad, and ugly. I really would love a study on number of humans' words spoken versus human texts year to year. Something. Say, uh, see something, say nothing, but work them thumbs on Twitter. Educate. That's interesting, too. Yeah. How many words were spoken in 2006? And how many words were communicated in 06? How many words were communicated in 2016? Social media has exponentially increased the amount of information being exchanged and information isn't always like knowledge. Sometimes information is nonsensical garbage or,
Starting point is 01:59:49 you know, a string of words that's meaningless. Earlier. You said there was not really a middle ground anymore. And I maybe start thinking that there is a middle, but it's moving and it's moving so fast because of the new amount of information that's entering the system so rapidly. So like we can find middle ground but
Starting point is 02:00:05 it's a different middle ground every moment because all this new information no no no so there used to be that that's that's where it was getting really really bad and the rickety bridge between the two islands was shaking and flopping around in the wind and you never knew where it was going to be no it broke that bridge broke well it used to be that there was like a middle ground that mbc would declare and that's where everyone kind of had a week or two weeks to find it before the mass media, which but now it's like every every 10 minutes information you get like, oh, well, that changes everything. The point is, the president tweeted that changes everything.
Starting point is 02:00:35 If it used to be that I could go to someone and say, here's what the left said, here's the right said, the middle seems to make sense, right? And they would say, ah, the truth is always closer to the middle. Nowadays, you say to the left, here's what the right said, you can say the right, here's what the left said. And they to make sense right and they would say ah the truth is always closer to the middle nowadays you say to the left here's what the right said you can say the right here's what the left said and they both say well they're lying that's it we probably have to do a whole show on this but it's it's it's the point is i can literally show an article from time magazine where they say a conspiracy by an elite cabal of powerful individuals and the left will say thank god yep okay yep there's no middle ground like
Starting point is 02:01:07 that that that article was like i think it's getting drowned out if if abc news had done that in the six o'clock news in 1994 everyone in the country almost would be talking about yeah it's like that sign where the ladyhood held up it's like is freedom more important than safety you're like oh there there's a very famous image i forgot who originally put it up but it was at like a gym and there's there's like nb there's nbc and then there's or like cnn and then fox and i know i think it was like cbs and fox and fox says sondland confirms no quid pro quo the next tv says sondland confirms no quid pro quo. The next TV says Sondland confirms quid pro quo. Here's what really happened. I broke it down. So this was on the in the like first impeachment hearing or the Ukraine hearings. Sondland said, I believe there was a quid pro quo. But Trump said there is no
Starting point is 02:01:58 quid pro quo. And I quote, I want nothing. I want nothing. No quid pro quo. The framing device from mainstream media was, yeah, but Sondland said he felt like it was there. So it must be. And the framing from Fox News was Trump's literal words were no quid pro quo. And both were at the same time saying the opposite things. So we're doomed because there's no middle ground. If a tree falls on a man, you know, Fox will be like tree attract a tree, on a man, Fox will be like, tree attacks man. And then MSNBC like, global warming is infecting the environment.
Starting point is 02:02:31 The best take on it was Ryan Long, the comedian, who made a video about how he was a digital freelance journalist. And he found a way to sell footage to both Fox and MSNBC. He said, you know, look, normally, if you want to sell footage, the news outlets will buy it. But Fox News, you know, they only want the protesters looking bad and MSNBC only wants them looking good. So how do you sell this footage to everybody? Well, I figured it out. And then he has one joke where he said, one time I accidentally sent footage of, you know, a young black protester picking up garbage to Fox News and they emailed me back saying, what am I supposed to do with this? And I said, well, if you play it backwards, it looks like he's littering. So he's a really great, really great comedian.
Starting point is 02:03:10 I don't think we're doomed, but it's going to require people to develop their critical thinking. Because if you take something like this, this gorilla thing, and you shine a light on it this direction, you're going to see a silhouette of a gorilla. But if you shine a light on it from this direction, you're going to see the silhouette of a straight line. Both are true. Both are real, depending on where you're looking at the information from. So it's going to be important for people to develop that muscle. It was not true that there was a quid pro quo with Gordon Sondland. He just said, Trump told me no, but I kind of felt like there was. I don't care what you kind of felt like. There's also blatant lies.
Starting point is 02:03:43 Did Donald Trump say, give me this in exchange for this. No. What did he say? I want nothing. Then why would you feel that way? It's nonsensical. I don't care what your feeling are feeling feelings are. I care about whether or not there was an exchange for something. But the media decided to run someone's feelings over the exact quote from the president. They could have just quoted him and left it at that. They decided to say, well, you know, we believe this guy's gut feeling over what was actually said. It's ridiculous. It's like, I get it that Trump could go. I don't want a quid pro quo. Wink, wink. And then you'd argue he was winking at me the whole time. Maybe that would make sense. No, it's literally Trump saying,
Starting point is 02:04:17 I don't want anything. No quid pro quo. You know, just just get the job done. Why would you then come out and testify? But there really was one. And why would then agree with you it's stupid it's fake there's no middle ground it's all about just appeasing one tribe over the other and then everyone's gonna rip each other's throats out and there's no consequence for lying that's a there's just nothing anymore nobody if you get caught lying nobody pays the price for it happens all the time and it's just to feed this media machine that sells us poison for our brains why is that did you have you followed the path of when it because it used to be like a heinous crime so i just remember the last time somebody paid for something was again the iran contra when uh the government got uh busted selling crack in the inner city
Starting point is 02:05:01 yep nope i never after that everybody maybe there was scooter libby that kind of took the fall but you know like nobody nobody dude and it's kind of crazy all right let's just do a couple more super chats here we got casey lauren who says canada has a five-party system four of which have enough numbers to have influence they are forced to compromise it's also a parliamentary system so it makes it easier for them. And let's see. Let's do one more super chat. Bo Darville says, how far will the Democrats go with gun control?
Starting point is 02:05:35 Do you expect confiscation? Not in the immediate future, but eventually, yes, absolutely. No, but they'll probably do mandatory buybacks. That's the only way to really do it. They can't send cops door to door because that would just create mass chaos. But they would do mandatory buybacks where they're like, if you don't do this, you'll be committing a felony. And then people will just do it because law abiding citizens will abide by the law. A lot of people won't, though.
Starting point is 02:05:57 And then things will get crazy. That's why I think they have to be very careful about this. And they'll do it slowly. And that's also why they pass laws where they grandfather things in like, OK, banning machine guns but if you if you have one that existed before the law you're allowed to have it and then eventually nobody has a machine gun anymore but trump was the only one that pushed the goal post and made it not grandfathered in with the bump stocks and he made countless numbers of americans felons overnight with just yeah which is absolutely disgusting and republican senate republican house republican president nothing for the second amendment with just his pen, which is absolutely disgusting. And Republican Senate, Republican House, Republican President,
Starting point is 02:06:27 nothing for the Second Amendment, nothing for the First Amendment. It's just... Well, ladies and gentlemen, we're going to have a bonus... I shouldn't say that.
