Joe Biden made an interesting comment about how there is a liberal world order and soon there will be a new world order. Of course, the media went nuts saying it's all a big conspiracy theory. Ignore this. Nothing's happening. He just means like there's going to be a new order to the world, okay, which is basically what new world order means to like everybody. That's the point. But the interesting thing about this is that he makes a reference to generational change once every three to four generations, 60 million deaths between 19, what is it, 1900 and like 1946 or something like that. And so it very much sounds like Joe Biden is anticipating the fourth turning when he says there will be a new world order. So we're going to talk about this, what it means

and what Joe Biden's, look, I got to say, Joe Biden's the conspiracy theorist. If Joe Biden is the one saying there's a new world order coming, it doesn't make him the conspiracy theorist. But sure, whatever you say, media. We've also got The Daily Wire. Jeremy Boring has unleashed Jeremy's razors because Harry's razors canceled on them for – they were doing ads for Harry's and then denounced their audience. So they are firing up with their own grooming product and subscription service, I suppose it is. And they released a commercial, and it's one of the funniest commercials I've seen. So we'll talk about that as well.

Plus a bunch of other news. We've got James O'Keefe has published. This is crazy. Biden's DOJ is spying on Project Veritas, spying on these journalists, going behind a judge's back because a judge issued a special ruling on a special master for Veritas. So we're going to go into that. The ACLU has actually issued a statement criticizing this report, yet still denouncing Project

Veritas. So I guess, sure, whatever. So joining us to talk about this and much, much more is Emily Jashinsky. How's it going? Do you want to introduce yourself? Hey, I am host of Federalist Radio Hour, culture editor at The Federalist, and director of the National Journalism Center. Right on. Yeah.

Cool. Quick. Yeah, that's quick. And also Jack Posobiec. Jack Posobiec, host of Human Events Daily, Turnpoint USA, and former NAVA intel officer, and I'm sure we're going to be talking a lot about both the judicial stuff and maybe touch on Ukraine as well. Oh, definitely. Yeah, yeah. You forgot to say you're a plaid enthusiast. This is actually my first plaid shirt.

I am now dabbling in plaid. I've decided to try it on. I'm coming out as plaid curious here live on the show. Is there green in that plaid? That's really brave, Jack. No, no, no. It's actually an optical illusion. I don't know. I think it's like ladybugs. Oh, no, no. It's actually an optical illusion. I don't know.

I think it's like ladybugs. It's Huchel. Oh, ladybugs. I never looked that closely. Is that ladybugs? That actually is. Yeah, it's ladybugs. We've had ladybugs in the house this year.

Yeah, that's right. Yeah, they're everywhere. Ian is actually drinking ladybug juice right now. Dude, this, Eternal Red, a little bit of Healthy Healthy. I'm coming back from a cold. I basically started to get a cold, but if you kill it right away, because it's an immunodeficiency, it's a rhinovirus, it's an immunodeficiency virus. If you get it before it infects your white blood cells, you can kind of just avoid it. And it seems like that happened. Praise the Lord. Everybody thought because Ian was eating like

sludge. It's not true. He was, he was eating aloe. I started getting aloe, just pure aloe filet and then putting a little bit of eternal reds in there. But let me not take any more time up, ladies and gentlemen. Ian Crossland, and of course we have Lydia over here. Yep, I'm here as well. I'm not drinking any weird squeezings tonight. I'm just drinking coconut water. Always a delight to have one of my ladies.

You're also not wearing plaid. I'm not. You're right. I'm not as plaid curious as Jack is, but Jack is rocking it. So let's get going. Before we get started, head over to TimCast.com. If you haven't done this already, become a member because that's what keeps everything operating.

Now it's kind of not that much of an accomplishment we'll be 10 times bigger than cnn yeah yeah we'll be 10 times we'll be twice so uh yeah share the video smash the like button let's jump into this first story from newsweek joe biden's new world order comment jumped on by conspiracy theorists okay let's just uh read a bit about what Joe Biden said. He said, as one of the top military people said to me in a secure meeting the other day,

okay, can I just pause for a second? Oh my gosh, that is not what he said. No, no, no, it's right there. The top military people in the secure meeting about the new world order. But I also... He was just talking to Hunter. I want to point out

the two crazy things they're like it's a conspiracy theory and biden literally prefaced this by saying top military people in our secure meeting said it but also why is biden spilling secure meeting details to the public like in a rambly i just imagine that as he's talking there's like you know kamala is just like and then you've got like j Psaki and they're going, no, no, no, no, no. Anyway, he said, we've discussed the new ways to assassinate Vladimir Putin. Personalized bioweapon, you see. And you know, Hillary was there. Hillary was there and she said, can't we just drone this guy?

Oh, my gosh. All right, hold on. Here's a quote. Here's what biden said as one of the top military people said to me in a secure meeting the other day 60 million people died between 1900 and 1946 and since then we've established a liberal world order and that hadn't happened in a long while a lot of people dying but nowhere near the chaos and now is a time when things are shifting there's going to be a new world order out there and we've got to lead it and we've got to unite the rest of the free world in doing it. They then go on to say several people online took Biden using the phrase new world order to confirm

the existence of the aforementioned conspiracy theory. Here's what they do. Here's what the media is doing. Powerful world leaders like Clinton, George H.W. Bush, even Hillary Clinton, they've all said there will be a new world order. Now, for most people, they think that means there's going to be a global judicial system or legal system because the Council on Foreign Relations publicly states that's what their intention is with the liberal world order. They said after World War II to prevent war, various, you know, powerful institutions came together and created, you know, international organizations and treaties to prevent this

from ever happening again. And now there's going to be a new version of that. That's it. That's all it means. So the media will push the most insane, absurd version of the conspiracy so they can try and discredit what Joe Biden just outright said, that in a secure meeting, he was told this. But I think there's also, and it's, you know, to go back to the headline of the show tonight, there's something even deeper that Biden is getting at, because it's not just that he's

talking about setting up a new version of the world order. He's essentially describing the fourth turning. So that means the president of the United States just came out and said that he was briefed by the top levels of our military that we are in a fourth turning. Is that not what he just said? That's exactly. Look, he didn't say literally the fourth turning, but you're right. That's essentially what he's getting at. Right.

So, you know, the only conclusion. They're reading some Strauss Howe. And he said, oh, no, no, no, no. That's that's that's too much. It's obvious they're watching Tim Kastar. Oh, yeah. I think they actually, some people at the White House are because when we were watching Biden's campaign speech, it was the State of the Union, but he didn't really go to the State of the Union. He called it a campaign speech.

Right, right. We were like, why are they so tight on Biden? And then they pulled out the camera. No. And they're like, I think they're watching. And then they went back in on his face. Thanks, guys. Well, this is an administration that is literally working right now on a global minimum corporate tax.

Right. And so it's not as though there is something very literal happening when you say new world order. And that's why the conversation about a new world order is immensely frustrating, because there's a literal meaning to the term new world order that has been explicit among global leaders for forever. And every once in a while, they slip up and say a buzzword that's associated with conspiracy theories. But that's what's frustrating about the dismissal of this as a conspiracy theory. So like, listen, we have an IMF, we have a World Bank, we have a United Nations, we're working on a global minimum tax right now, this stuff is pretty much out in the open. And when you have a slip from the President

of the United States like this, even from an administration that would avoid sort of veering into that territory, it's extremely telling. And it's not even as though to the point about a fourth turning. That's not even in the Biden consciousness. He's just talking about what his job is, which is to be friends with Boris Johnson and Angela Merkel and all these people and to to have the have control at their fingertips well i think it's both i think i do think it's both though because he talks about the 60 million dying and that it's this cycle that happens every three to four generations so the preface of it is where he's talking about the fourth turning and that this leads to setting up a new version of that someone always have to say rules-based orders they can't say new world order

who wants to read what website that is? What organization that website is? The World Economic Forum. That's the World Economic Forum. Oh, wow. Can you pull up the article? Yeah, here we go. So it's from the World Economic Forum.

Who wants to read the title? 136 countries have agreed to a global minimum tax rate. Here's what it means. That's a great price, Jack. I like that. So the World Economic Forum is citing Reuters. But clearly,

the reason I pull this up is the World Economic Forum is very much interested in a lot of this global policy, new world order stuff. The Council on Foreign... You know what? Let me do this.

Let me... Well, let's read a little bit here. It says, the countries behind the global minimum tax rate together account for over 90% of the global economy. So that is to say, 90% of the global economy are agreeing to a global corporate minimum tax rate. Which means they're agreeing to the infrastructure to support and enforce a global minimum tax rate.

So it's not just that you can make this argument that, like, listen, if we were all on an even playing field, things would make more sense economically. No, they're creating an infrastructure to enforce a global minimum tax right now check this out this is the council on foreign relations website news guard certified 100 out of 100 is it a conspiracy theory when the council on foreign relations says what is the liberal world order and they literally say world leaders created a series of international organizations and agreements to promote global cooperation on issues including security trade health and monetary policy the u.s has championed the system known as the liberal world order for the past 75 years during this time the world has enjoyed unprecedented peace and prosperity i just got

a pause real quick especially the troops in vietnam they've got a gravity for 75 years jungle uh korea that was also very peaceful. The bombing of Belgrade. I think kicking the doors in Iraq was very peaceful for those soldiers. Rwanda. Peaceful Rwanda.

You know what it is? They're, man, it's very Jen Sackian. It's like they're bragging about the thing they've done, but it's been

an unmitigated failure across the board. But also it doesn't exist. Right. It's like they're writing about it, but no, no, no, no. We've created world peace and world order. So Michael Anton actually has a great formulation

for what this is, and he calls it the celebration parallax. And so the celebration parallax means when they talk about it, it is good and laudatory. But if anyone mentions it in a critical sense, not only are they wrong, but also the thing they're discussing doesn't exist. The New World Order is amazing and just so great. And I'm really excited for Klaus Schwab and all that stuff.

It feels like chaos. I can't wait to not own anything because I'm going to be so happy. But this is what's interesting is that we lose, and I wrote about this recently, that we have this nuclear order and nuclear technology is literally younger

than some people walking this earth. And it is the most dramatic technological advancement that has ever happened in the history of humanity. And it's happened over the course of people's lifetimes. Like it has happened that quickly.

And we take for granted how dramatically it changed the way that we operate. And so the new world order is actually really new. It's really new. And it's something that like when you have all this technology at your fingertips, of course, the leaders of the United States, of course, the leaders of all of these different countries are going to want to have the power concentrated at their fingertips because it's so powerful and because they have this sort of technological ability to do it now that they can concentrate power and rule over everyone because they're terrified of what would happen if they didn't. What I'm wondering is, are the governments making concessions with these corporations? They're like, the writing's on the wall.

The corporations are taking over. Let's just intercede with them instead of try and resist. You said that they're all working together to create a global tax rate. I wonder if it's just like the governments have given up and they're like, hey, corporations are coming, Klaus Schwab's right, corporate governments. I totally think so. I think they're the same.

I mean, Trump's first Secretary of State was Rex Tillerson. He was literally the CEO of Exxon. It's mind-boggling to me that people forget that, but I think they're basically the same at this point. I'd just like to point out that the Council on Foreign Relations basically describes the new world order conspiracy theory as something that's already happened. That's the weird thing. For 75 years. For 75 years, there has been a liberal world economic order where – a liberal world order where world leaders created a series of international organizations and agreements to promote global cooperation and issues including security trade

health and monetary policy i said it fast there you go anyway the point is now that biden is like every three to four generations something changes basically saying we're in the fourth turning and there's going to be a new world order no longer the liberal world order there'll be a new world order well i don't understand why they're acting like it's not a real thing. But it's also what we are actually seeing. And the question is, will we will this trigger a Thucydides trap? Right. Because and I believe it's The Economist that came out and dubbed what we're starting to see.

The just the sort of edges of right now are or is an alternative world order. And this is the idea that because the U.S. is sanctioning Russia so hard, because the U.S. is now sanctioning CCP officials, they've threatened sanctions on India. Well, guess what? You put those three countries together, that's over half the world's population. So they are going to find a way to work together outside of you, and they're going to build their own order in order to do so. So the Saudis, of course, are already selling oil in the Yuan. So they're getting away from the petrodollar.

You might see a rise. Wait, they're already doing it? They're discussing it. Right, right. You're also seeing India and Russia are already starting to trade in between their own currencies. They're not using U dollars. So that's the point of all of this, because all of these transactions are done, at least certainly for oil and energy writ large,

are done in US-backed currency. So that's the SWIFT system. So the idea that the US dollar is just fiat is actually, I'm sorry, crypto bros, it's not 100% correct, because the US dollar is essentially backed by something, and that's oil. Because of this artificial demand for U.S. dollars because of foreign countries always needing to convert into the U.S. dollar, that props it up. So it's not necessarily gold-backed.

It's sort of oil-backed by this global liberal – But look, I mean nothing's stopping any one of these countries or world leaders from switching off of the U.S. dollar. I mean, Saddam Hussein did it. Saddam Hussein. That worked out. Gaddafi wanted to do it. Gaddafi. That worked out for him, too.

Yeah. It worked out really well for them, didn't it? Yeah. A lot of guys can just tell the U.S. government, like, F you. I'm doing my country my own way, and they don't really care. And so they're all anti-nationalist, right? Like, nationalism is terrible. It is intentionally conflated with white nationalism, unless it's Ukrainians fighting Putin. And then everyone that's sort of in the

neoliberal establishment loves nationalism and celebrates it. And we see stories in the media on CNN of these Ukraine patriots who are, you know, just carrying the banner of nationalism, which these same people think is so icky here because it's about they see themselves as citizens of the world. And that's especially true of the people like that doesn't mean you can't be American, but you see yourself as a global citizen, right? They have something literally called the Global Citizen Festival before your nationality. But you watch how quickly that flips when the nationalists are in support of their agenda.

So CNN will argue that somebody should be fired from their job because they're cracking their knuckles and it accidentally looks like an OK symbol. But an actual commander of the Azov battalion was just on CNN yesterday who are an avowed far right neo-Nazi replete unit within the Ukrainian military. Who was it who was straightening their jacket before an interview? Stephen Miller. Stephen Miller. And they said it was a double white power. These people are insane. I don't understand how anybody really believes that.

To Emily's point, the same people who will see Nazis everywhere, behind every shadow here in the United States, when they're faced with an actual group of avowed neo-Nazis, they will say, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. Those people, they're fine because they're fighting for something that we need to fight against. I was researching the Azov, and I look back. It looks like the Germans after World War I took Ukraine as a protectorateate and then a bunch of uh germans were there and then when world war ii broke out a bunch of nazis were there in western ukraine and started like got really vicious and uh started up as of i don't know much about it but this is where i got to from there this is why there's germans why there were nazis in western ukraine is because it was holdover from the wars it's not so much that it was it's not so much that it was a whole i mean

i think you have a half of it right it's it's this idea, and it wasn't Azov Battalion back then. It was this guy, Stepan Bandera, who was, so Banderites and Banderism arose because of this. Now, it started off as being an anti-Soviet movement and a pro-Ukrainian nationalism movement, kind of like you were talking about, but then it went completely extreme very quickly. And even before the Germans arrived in World War II, they were essentially declaring themselves on the side of the Germans because they were so anti-Soviet Union. So they start slaughtering Russians. They start slaughtering Poles, Jews. Basically, if you were in that area of Western Ukraine, it's known as East Galatiaia or um excuse me east galatia that you were basically not ukrainian you were just completely wiped out by this guy bandera but

the previous president of ukraine just recently actually named him as a hero of ukraine and a hero of the nation there's there's statues to this guy that are up in their in their city squares they must be torn to the ground. There was a photo of one of the As Of guys with the black sun. I think it was. Was that it? I don't know. Yeah.

He was wearing like a... You see them everywhere. I think there was a Reuters article where they had someone who had the patch on, and they actually blurred it out. Wow. Oh, that's the SS symbol. On the shot. Himmler did that. It's not a black son this is for

i hadn't read about it yet i know the symbol though you know we got a weird whatever is going on in this country where there are shows like this where we're able to point out that ukraine has staunch nationalists and you know overt neo-nazi ideology yet the mainstream media is cheering for it the antifa left is now pro-fa, I guess. It's so weird. Pro-fascist. I mean, it's so incredibly offensive because they have no idea what they've done to the... They actually don't understand the fear that they've instilled in normal working class people

who, for instance, really like Donald Trump and are afraid that they're going to be called a Nazi, a literal Nazi, by people at their office place by the Human Resources Department for tweeting something in support of Trump or Facebooking something in support of Trump. And so it is just like to see this. It is so incredibly offensive because they spent years seeing seeing Nazis everywhere. I have a question, though. What would happen if you if someone made black buttons, like pins, but it was yellow and blue, like the Ukrainian flag, and it said Azov on the top? You can see that Kleenex box is yellow and blue.

Oh, yeah. Look at that. Do you think these leftists would wear that if you told them? Yes. 100%. This is a pro-Ukrainian symbol of Azov. 100%. Absolutely.

They'd walk around wearing actual Nazi symbols. Oh, yeah. They wouldn't care. Absolutely. That'd be a good Ryan Long segment to do or something. It comes down to emotion in that situation. Like are they familiar with the symbol and does it strike an emotional chord? If it does, they'll stay away from it.

But if they don't know, they'll gladly accept it. Well, hold on. So I'll ask you a couple of different scenarios. Let's say you go to Union Square in New York City and you have these pins and you walk up to someone and say, hey, would you wear this in support of the freedom fighters in Ukraine, the Azov Battalion? It's the Ukrainian flag. They'll probably say yes, right? Now, what if you said,

would you wear this in support of the Azov Battalion? It's the Ukrainian flag and the Nazis' black sun. This is their symbol. Do you think they would wear it then? Yeah. You still think they would? If you said it was the Nazi black sun? You think they would still do it? I think they would get a short circuit. But it doesn't process.

What's even more interesting to me, though, is that, you know, you go up to people who have never heard of Ukraine, have never heard of Belarus, you know, maybe other than in some like abstract discussion, probably can't find it on a map and yet are now suddenly these experts on it. And also it becomes their entire identity just overnight. The same people who were, you know, vaccine experts a couple of weeks before. And prior to that, they were epidemiologists. And before that, they were racism experts throughout all my 20. And historians. Yeah. And now they're and now they're military members who are saying, you know, these ridiculous comments like, oh, you should just run up and throw paint at the tank.

And that'll you know, that'll stop them. And, you know, throw some water balloons at it with, you know, filled with paint. My personal favorite crazy craziness was when Zelensky held up the red salute. And I said, I didn't know if he was supporting Black Lives Matter or communism. It was meant to be like tongue in cheek. And I got a bunch of responses where they're like, you wouldn't have you're a coward. You don't have the balls to go to Ukraine. And I was just like, you know, I've been there three times. Well, you were there in the original coup.

I was there. I was. Yeah, I was there in the start of the Euro. My Dan protest for several months. And then I went back, you know, a couple of years later and, you know, sort of followed up and did a little video and stuff. So, yeah, I was actually there and I had guys surrounding me screaming at me. I was like, American journalist. They're like,

you're cool now. Come on in. It was crazy. We got to go inside a government building they had ransacked. They'd stripped all the paperwork and pulled it all out. It was nuts. Crazy times, man. I wasn't there when they started throwing the firebombs. What city were you in? I was in Kiev. This is the

independent square, they call it, or whatever. Yuromidan. It's Maidan Square. Maidan Square, yeah. But they were calling it Yuromidan because they all wanted to be in the EU. And the crazy thing is we went to a pro-Yanukovych rally where everyone's waving these flags. And it was being reported in British press as like... So Yanukovych, just for people who don't't know yanukovych was the current president at this time who essentially blew up this economic package for the eu that a lot of people wanted to

sign you know they wanted to sign this please do this who hired tony podesta and paul maniford to massage their messaging uh in the senate with hillary clinton's state department yeah yanukovych did? Yes. Yes. And they set it up through something called the European Center for a Modern Ukraine to try and get around FARA laws because it looked like they were just working for this neutral think tank. It's the most beautifully corrupt. Right.

And all the payments were going through Cyprus. Yeah. Wow. So Ukrainians get all mad and very upset about this at least in places like kiev so they launched this massive protest turns very violent but you also had ukrainians who were still supporting yanukovych and he had been at the time the democratically elected president of the country so you did have these dueling these dueling protests in the background.

Just to clear that up, Yanukovych was working with Tony Podesta. He hired Tony Podesta? Yeah, so he had a lobbying operation in the United States that included Paul Manafort, who was working for Mercury at the time, and Tony Podesta's Podesta Group, which is now defunct, which is amazing because it was one of the biggest lobbying firms in D.C., one of the most powerful lobbying firms in D.C. Yeah, and it went defunct over this corruption because it came out he was a casualty of the war against trump the media's war against trump um because they obviously caught paul manafort on this and he was convicted

of violating farrah law but it was amazing you can look at the lobbying records of tony pedestas firm meeting with people in hillary cl Clinton's State Department as a representative for the European Center for a Modern Ukraine, which he later admitted he knew was basically being was a front for Yanukovych. So Yanukovych wanted to join the Americans or was he a Russian? I thought he's a Russian puppet. Well, that's what and Jack could probably explain this better. But that goes that has happened in different ways depending on the time so if it's before the eu the collapse of the eu deal it's a different than if it was after what i was told uh when i was down there but since we're talking about that you have to point out muller goes after manafort who had been trump's campaign manager trump has to fire manafort after all of this comes out in like march of 16 or so

um i mean it may have been later than that. They have this thing called the Black Ledger, which turns out to be fake, but supposed to be made by Ukrainian operatives, but ended up, you know, they said it was the like illegal payments to Manafort. But throughout all of this, Manafort had been doing it through the Podesta group.

Podesta and Tony Podesta were given immunity during all of this, but Manafort has to go down for it. Interesting. I was told by some of the activists that their view, at least a lot of the students and a lot of protesters, was that Yanukovych was playing both sides. That he would, you know. Well, clearly. Right.

So he was trying to get these deals, these sweet, you know, deals from the West. And then he would go to Russia and be like, oh, look what they're going to do for us. And so people were like, the protesters wanted to be part of the EU. Being a part of the EU, this is their perspective. We could move to Poland. We could move to the UK, get jobs. The economy is going to immediately improve. Our lives will immediately improve.

And that's one of the reasons the EU was like, hold on there, hold on there. We'll figure it out. But the concern was Ukraine's economy was too weak. A lot of them were scared. Well, and also the levels of corruption. Yeah, right. You need to meet certain wickets and certain bars before you can gain entry to the EU. And truth be told, that's what Biden said.

Biden was saying, you know, corruption was a big deal. We are trying to weed out the corruption. It's just funny because I don't trust him because he is corrupt. I got to know for myself. I'm putting my son on the board of Burisma. This is an amazing again. Once we get our money out of Burisma, then the corruption will be over. When you start peeling back the layers of the Russia collusion hoax,

and you find at the bottom here that Tony Podesta is the brother of John Podesta, Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman, and was taking money from Yanukovych, who you, you know, playing both sides, I think is a fair way to say it, and fled to Russia, by the way, after the collapse of that deal and was protected by Putin's government. When you peel back to that layer, you realize what bullshit this is. Yanukovych hired Tony Podesta, who was running Podesta Group at the time? Yep, exactly.

And so he hired Podesta and he hired Manafort because that's how lobbying works in D.C. They need to have a Republican and a Democrat, basically, to get what they want done so that they can massage both the Republicans and the Democrats. And that's why I always use this example of one of the – it so perfectly crystallizes corruption in D.C. So if Yanukovych was working with the Americans and the Podesta group to become with this American-style thing, then why would Podesta flee to Russia? No, Yanukovych fled to Russia. Oh, okay.

I thought you said Tony Podesta did. No, no, no. Yanukovych, got it. No, I don't know where Tony Podesta is. I think he's in New York City. I could be wrong about that. Didn't he live with Abramovich, that woman? Weren't they like friends? I don't know.

Did you know that? Oh, really? Cooking, that like blood cooking thing. They're just weird people. She did. She did that famous The Artist is Present. Did you ever see that? I actually saw it in person.

Oh, really? I was visiting. Wow. Because I was visiting. Real quick, though. For those that don't know, she just sat in a room for like 30 days. Is that what it was? No, it's like the lobby of the Museum of Modern Art.

She sat in MoMA. And on like the second floor lobby. But I was going at the time because they had the Tim Burton exhibit that was only going to be there for a little bit and it was sort of so tim burton opened up his archives and you know everything from edward scissorhands to beetlejuice to like the batman costume the jokers stuff um the nightmare before christmas all the little jack skellington heads and everything and i was like oh that's great tim burton let's you know we were in new york i said we got to check this out because it was only there for a limited time they had had like a sandworm from Beetlejuice coming out of the ceiling. It was awesome. But as we're going up, we see this woman in all red, this red dress, just sitting in a chair.

And there's this sort of roped area around it. And everybody's looking at her. And this is probably like maybe 2010 or so. And I'm looking at her. I was like, what's with the lady in the chair? Why are people looking at it? I said, oh, no, it's high art. You're not sending the best. Is she going to be drawing something? Does she do caricatures like the people on the street or something? Let me tell you.

It's just this. Let me tell you what's disconcerting. What's disconcerting to me is that people would come in, and you could wait in line to sit down in a chair in front of her. And there were people who would sit down. a chair like in front of her. Right. And there were people who would like sit down. Jay-Z would. They would start crying.

What? They would just like start crying. And I'm just like, why are you crying? What the heck? People, I don't know, man. I really wonder sometimes about a lot of people. I'm just going to say it again for the 800th time in the past week. Every day we get a new story that's a hoax.

There's a uh we got the supreme court hearings going on for um what's her name kim tangy jackson yeah yeah yeah and uh someone tweeted let me just remind everybody that christine blasey ford credibly accused brett kavanaugh and republicans didn't care and i just see that i'm just like dude you guys you lie about basically every major political story non-stop, all day, every day and then a month goes by and it gets debunked. So no, I'm just, you could come out

and point at the sky and say there's a giant meteor. I'm not looking up. Just like the movie. No, no, no, you're not going to give me it's the easiest motion in the world to look up. I won't do it. Screw you. You guys are liars. I'll give you an example. Today is the three-year anniversary.

Three years it's been of the Mueller report coming out and that press conference that he gave completely debunking the Trump-Russia collusion hoax. Wow. Three years. Three years since the debunking of the hoax is today. Wow. And yet you go to anybody on the left

or your casual CNN, msnbc viewer they all believe it 100 well they're bringing it back i mean it's it's it's having actually a revival which is really interesting you're seeing a lot more people on the left continuing to talk about it now because it's their deflection point when they talk about the biden administration's handling of ukraine they're like well donald trump was in bed with Putin. You're so – we've been doing this for years, and you still haven't understood. You still haven't reckoned with the disaster that that was. It doesn't matter. Nothing persuades them otherwise.

They meant to solidify this sort of government takeover that they were pushing in Ukraine, bringing them into the NATOo fold bringing them into the security blanket during the hillary clinton administration right but of course the hillary clinton administration never took place and so they needed this placeholder to sort of keep that going keep that energy going for throughout the four years of trump and then that became the trump russia collusion hoax then finally after 2020 which is essentially the same kind of domestic color revolution that we were just talking about, the color revolution of Maidan, you see those exact same tactics being used here in the United States, right down to the violent riots in cities. And then when it ended, suddenly Ukraine and Victoria Nuland, the same exact person who was behind so much of that in 2013, 2014, comes right back in.

Tori and Newland, what's their connection with Kolomoisky? I think they have a connection, don't they? I'm into this Kolomoisky guy. We talked a little bit about him before, though. He's like a Ukrainian billionaire. I don't know what you call him, oligarch. He's like the puppet master, or looks like to be. Let's jump over to some domestic issues, very important domestic cultural issues that will shock the soul.

We have this story from Yahoo Life. Ben Shapiro and Jeremy Boring of The Daily Wire announced Jeremy's Razors campaign against Harry's. If you guys haven't seen this yet, you've got to watch the best, the greatest commercial ever they released on The Daily Wire. So good.

And it's legit really, really good. Basically, The Daily Wire was sponsored by Harry's Razors. Harry's Razors got tweeted at by a high school kid. No joke. Like a person who said, I'm in high school. Literally two followers. With two followers and said, you guys are bigots.

So Harry's was like, we hereby denounce The Daily Wire. So The Daily Wire has launched IHateHarrys.com, and they've launched their own Jeremy's Razors with this commercial, and it's brilliant. Not only is it funny, it's silly, it's over the top. He takes a flamethrower to Harry's and Gillette. He goes after these companies who hate you. Not just Harry's, but also Gillette.

Saying, you know, men are too toxic or whatever. And now the Daily Wire's launched their own male grooming products. I think it's brilliant for two reasons. One, the cultural issue of it. Taking back the culture. Bringing back comedy. I'm looking at what the daily wire is doing i'm seeing the way they're filming things and i'm like this feels very much like 2020 2009 2010 vice you know when it was when it was edgy funny over the top offensive when it was vice when it was vice well and so the

interesting thing and i reported a year ago that this was in the works, and I kind of figured maybe it wasn't going to happen. And I'm glad that it did happen because it seems like a silly thing. And I remember when I reported it, I was like, is this newsworthy? But it absolutely is when you think about it, because what The Daily Wire is doing is creating this parallel infrastructure to the so-called mainstream infrastructure. And if you look at Gina Carano, she gets purged from Hollywood. She's a legit actress. She gets purged and the Daily Wire creates a soft landing pad for her, which then creates more incentives for other people in Hollywood to be open about what they think because they can land somewhere when they get purged and somewhere legitimate. And so when you create this parallel infrastructure, you create real competition to

the monopoly that wokeism has on corporate America. And so that I mean, we talk about monopolies and antitrust, but this is like an ideological monopoly. And there's no way to create competition for it, because every single corporation is dominated by this ideology. And that's what they're doing. kind of mirrors what we're seeing happening domestically with conservatives or just sort of anti-woke companies and economies of scale starting to be built out and now supply chains, parallel social media, everything from Rumble to various social media platforms that are being built out. And it's very similar how the mainstream is the one that's kicking people out. But because you've kicked out

now so many people, well, that's enough to form a critical mass where you can now build your own structure in your system. So we're seeing it happening domestically with things like this, but we're also seeing it happening internationally. I think it's falling apart. I think it's breaking apart. The liberal world order, this unified system, Visa MasterCard is being split here in the United States. The economy is being split. It might be a way to bypass,

what would you call it, where there's when one superpower raises up and then it just places another. Thucydides' trap. It may be a way

to bypass Thucydides' trap. I don't know because when you look at the way Russia got economically canceled, there's no way to strike back. When you're a military

and then you get canceled by Visa, there's no country to attack with your military. It's all money. What could happen is starvation and then people rise canceled by visa, there's no country to attack with your military. It's all money. What could happen is starvation, and then people rise up against the starvation. Like, hey, you can't starve us like this. Then they take up arms and are called villainized, and then that could cause some sort of conflict.

But I don't think it's going to get that extreme because Russia, China, and the United States are capable of growing their own food for the most part. Well, not only that, but Russia and China can direct – I mean, they have a massive border with each other. They can directly trade. They don't – or they have some – you talk about Central Asia. They have mutually beneficial countries that they have good relations with that they can trade through. So they don't need to – the United States Navy can't interdict trade between China and Russia. So they don't need us basically. What we need in the United States is more of what The Daily Wire is doing. Oh yeah. Shaving products. So whenever you, you know,

not only that, but Daily Wire has a streaming service they're building up, right? I'm totally jealous of the stuff these guys are working on because they're hitting the nail on the head with the hammer. So we need to think about woke companies that have either a monopoly or, you know, close to one and then start actually making products. Yeah. So and one of the most interesting things I've experienced in reporting on The Daily Wire's kind of ascent is being on the set of Terror on the Prairie, which is the new Gina Carano movie, was fascinating because I was talking to all of these people just from the crew who have spent their careers in Hollywood. And they're not sort of like, some of them are like red meat conservatives, but a lot

of them aren't. They're just artists. And finally, I think when you create, again, those landing pads, it's not just that top bill talent. It's not just your Gina Carano's. It was makeup artists. It was people on the crew and to a degree that I was really surprised by who weren't just like, oh like oh hey it's

another job they were like no no we're here because we're really excited not to promote a conservative message but to promote the message that we're giving a middle finger to hollywood and that's what artists need to feel comfortable doing and the daily wire is creating spaces for that and it's it's going to be really really powerful at least so far it seems like it has been and the talent they're they're snatching up is also very interesting yeah yeah the fascinating thing is i'm watching the commercial and it's remarkably well made in terms of production quality yeah it's just absolutely speaking of you want to roll that thing we have to we have to roll it's like what is it like three or four, but he has a, he has a flamethrower.

That's awesome. You know, I've done, um, Candace's show down there a couple of times. And just to talk about, you know, the behind the scenes of that, they have a live studio audience where they do the show and the show is shot live to tape. And so you've got people that are in there, a couple hundred people per episode that, and everybody's, you everybody's dressed very professionally, dressed really, really nice. The audience is kept live. There's an emcee that kind of comes in between

when they're changing up the sets. I mean, there's so much that goes on behind the scenes there. It's wild. Yeah, and their gift shop is one of the things, this sounds silly, but that blew me away, because if you go to their gift shop, and they have one outside the set where they do Candace's show, it's things that, it's sort of like inside Daily Wire jokes,

but you can see how they're tapping into this really kind of, I don't know, cultural populist sentiment that I don't think anybody else has come close to doing yet. I have always loved the jokes they've had on their show. It's always been a running joke that Ben is going to fire Michael Knowless it's always been a running joke that matt is a cranky old crab he's not even that old but he's just that's his persona they come up with these personas they're very personable they're very funny they get along with each other they smoke cigars together i think it's awesome so harry's this is this is interesting i'm you know i don't know

many companies that have co-ceos like a that a normal thing? Because The Daily Wire has a co-CEO. But we have a statement here from Jeff Rader, they say, co-founder and co-CEO of Harry's. He states, we created Harry's to offer better shaving and grooming products for everyone. We believe deeply in free speech, but draw the line at hate. We'll continue to support our customers and community with kindness and compassion. A spokesperson from the brand continued by saying that Harry's does advertise across the various media, including the conservative Fox News. However,

the brand is not associated with entities that engage in or endorse hate speech. Ladies and gentlemen, if you have a Harry's subscription, you should cancel it and get a Jeremy's subscription. Here's the challenge with Netflix and Disney. If you want to watch the latest Disney movie, it's Disney or nothing, baby. if you want to watch the latest disney movie it's disney or nothing baby if you want to watch those netflix

series it's netflix or nothing if you want to shave your face it's harry's or jeremy's yeah and jeremy's are the company who are like we don't hate you we just want your money and harry's are the company that says we actually do hate some of you yeah we hate you because you hate so we're gonna hate you and there's there's another really interesting and i think uh dark element to this which is and the example i always use is like why on earth is steven colbert um one of the most and and often on the ratings the most popular host in late night and we can talk about great godfell which i think is another amazing story but steven colbert he is objectively the worst comedian in late night and he's also the most partisan comedian in late night which just completely flips the script you used to have johnny carson's writers sit down every night

and ask themselves the question what is going to make america laugh tonight stephen colbert's writers sit down every night and think what is what is going to make resistance boomers laugh tonight and he wins because he has cornered that niche audience and he has built this loyal following among that niche because no longer do you need 15 million viewers to be the king of late night you need a reliable three to four million viewers to be the king of late night and this happens with the death of mass media and the death of popular culture in different sections of the economy and that's why harry's Razors is going to feel more comfortable. They want to be the razors for progressives.

It's like the dumb Gillette commercial. But look, I think what Colbert realized and a lot of these hosts is that you're not going to get a general market anymore. Exactly. Exactly. So they've abandoned the idea. Yes. And that's hyperpolarization. It's very scary to me.

I was just watching. It's smart on a business level, but not on a cultural level. It's terrifying. I was watching watching. It's smart on a business level, but not on a cultural level. It's terrifying. I was watching Johnny Carson last night, actually. Starting tomorrow, everybody on the show has to wear MAGA hats with Trump 2024 on it. Because we've realized. I was thinking this dialogue last night watching Johnny Carson. And what I was watching was the Drew Carey, his first appearance on Carson 91.

And Johnny was such a loving host. His favorite thing to do was show new talent to the world. But it was all centralized at that time in the thing to do was show new talent to the world. Right. But it was all centralized at that time in the early 90s, 80s, before the internet. There weren't a million comedians. Now there's like a million. There's like a hundred thousand or 10,000.

So you can't, there's no like funnel to hose them through. It's a completely different environment. The fact that that show still exists is insane. Yep. It's the wrong format for a wild, it doesn't make sense. And he wasn't apolitical, by the way. He told political jokes, but they were jokes that everybody could laugh at.

So – I want to – Just my take on this is that a lot of people pointed out that we do have this sort of breakup of central pop culture and certainly breakup of media. But there have been times in America's history where we've had huge flourishings of alternate viewpoints. If you go back to the founding, you look at the printing press. If you look in the 1900s at the level of the amount of newspapers each city used to have, this idea that all media has to be centralized and that everybody has to can only watch, you know, three, six and ten. And there's only a couple of networks. That was just one moment in American history.

And it's certainly not the talk radio. Talk radio has been around. Yeah, we really do. Talk radio has been was around prior to World War Two. But then you need you need institutions like the New York Times to stop pretending they represent or they're reporting on the entire country. Let me show you where this is headed. I found this article from March 4th today from Defector. It's titled, I watched a Ben Shapiro movie by accident.

How do you go to the Daily Wire by accident? Sure, whatever. But they write, quote, if you're looking for something to watch shut in is pretty fun and vincent gallo gets his ass kicked if you're in that sort of thing that's a tweet i wrote a couple weeks ago late on saturday night it no longer exists the reason it doesn't exist is because almost immediately after i posted it i got a dm from a friend uh you know that movie was produced by the ultra right wing daily wire with only ultra right wing producers, talent, and so forth for that market. What? No, no. Delete, delete. What? Yep. They're trying to make real movies now.

Sneak that ish in under the actual cover of actual production values. For F's sake. This always happens to me. It always happens to you, huh? I will be watching an ultra evangelical movie and not realize it's ultra evangelical. I will be watching an ultra-evangelical movie and not realize it's ultra-evangelical. I will be listening to Christian radio and not realize it's Christian radio. If Jesus is around, I need him to announce himself or I'll just think he's from Brooklyn. I'm sorry, Brooklyn. That's hilarious. Here's the funny thing.

How do you accidentally listen to ultra-Christian radio and be like, wait, are these biblical topics Christian? Who is this person who's like, I actually... Look what they're saying. They're saying, I enjoy conservative content. I enjoy these movies. I enjoy Christian radio. Oh, no, I'm not supposed to delete, delete, delete. Yeah, that's how you know you're dealing with a cult.

Right, exactly. They like something... That's typical cult behavior. It's a cult, man. You know, I watch Disney. I went and I saw Ghostbusters 2016. I regretted it, but I'll go see those movies. And then I went and saw the new Ghostbusters.

I liked it. I read the Daily Wire. I check out the stuff they're producing or whoever because I'm like, oh, if someone can make something good, it's good. I'm now getting to the point where I'm like, get away from these companies that hate you and want to take your money for bad things. But maybe that's kind of the mentality they've always had. And the libertarian, civil libertarian or conservative side is only just now realizing it. For the longest time, conservatives have been content to give their money to people who hate them. And the left has always been against giving their money to people who hate them.

I don't think conservatives realized how much these people hated them because I don't think they realized what was brewing in the sort of academic, on the fringes of the academic left, which was this thing that I've called the progressive or bigot binary, which is that you are either necessarily progressive or a bigot. So if you are not fully progressive at every turn and you don't agree with every little tenet of our idea or our faith, I should

say, then you are a bigot. If you fall just outside of that, you're a bigot. And when you enforce that, I just don't think a lot of conservatives realized that this is what was building. That if you disagree with them, if you disagree with them at all, it's not just that you think Clarence Thomas is innocent because it's the early 90s. Now it's if you think Brett Kavanaugh is innocent, you are responsible for being – you're complicit in rape. And you have created violence against women. I don't – I just – I don't care about what these people think in terms – to a certain degree because of stories like this.

Right. It's just – well, the country's bifurcated. There was a period where we had a culture war. I think the culture is just totally bifurcated. Like a thousand times, over and over and over and over. Now you have so many pockets of weirdness. When we started,

when the culture war first began, depending on what you think was the first great moment in it, it could be Occupy Wall Street because that's where... I think the issue is most people didn't see the wokeness in the organization of Occupy.

Yes. But Gamergate was pronounced widespread on the Internet and was bubbling up and creating these personalities who were, you know, always viewed themselves as being on the left, but now viewed themselves as being called right wing. At that time, we were still very much interested in a lot of the same things just disagreeing on them now we're at a point where it's like you guys go make your the craft remake which is just a woke psa and ben shapiro and the daily wire will make regular movies that we'll watch right and that's the thing that ben shapiro and the daily wire get is that they need to make regular movies and that has not happened before that's the big difference between what they're doing and all of the other so-called conservative art that's come before them i've got a lot of friends on Facebook from the old days when I was a progressive bigot, like you were saying.

I was like, oh, they want me to – whatever. Okay. They're like now they're talking about Servant of the People, this new show with Selinsky as the lead. And they're like, oh, I hear this show is okay. I can't wait to see it. And they're like, yeah, man, I loved it. I'm definitely watching this tonight.

I know what I got queued up which netflix just put back on in the midst of the ukraine war netflix just brought servant of the people which is zielinski's is it was a sitcom where he played the president of ukraine back in 2015 then he ran and actually became the president of ukraine so netflix us has now put netflix put this back on netflix in english i feel like they're watching it because ukraine and actually became the president of Ukraine. So Netflix US has now put Netflix, put this back on Netflix in English. I feel like they're watching it because Ukraine got invaded. I mean, it's pure cult.

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. It's ridiculous. I mean, it's just obvious. You go on Facebook and I see all these people, their profiles are Ukraine flags now. They're posting memes. They're saying like things about Zelensky. People are saying like Cuomo's out,

Zelensky's in or whatever. And I'm just like, you guys have no idea what you're talking about. You're literally in a cult. And you know why? It's this simple. You ask someone, what do you think about Ukraine? A not-cult member says, you know, I've heard about it in the news. Honestly, I'm not real following

it. I don't like the war, so Russia sucks for invading, but I wouldn't know a whole lot. What do you think about Zelensky? Who's that? He's the president of Ukraine. Oh, no idea. The cult members are like, yes, yes, Ukraine, flag. And I'm like, why do you support Ukraine? Because big country invaded small country.

Thanks, Tom. And the president is a comedian, and that's all they need. I think there are people in the cult. I love Ian because he's like hey who's this guy ugor kolomoisky who seems to be funding all of these things and kolomoisky started the tv show funded the campaign also funds the azov battalion by the way and the adar battalion started funding them as private security battalions for himself and his own militia. He was a governor at one point. We've all done that.

No, we have. We have. And, you know, but we're not supposed to ask questions about Kolomoisky. No, no, no, no, no, no. This is, you know, a liberal democracy that we all love. But what about all those corruption reports and Hunter Biden and Burisma and all this money and the Podestas and Manafort and all of these things? You know, isn't this like a human trafficking area? Hasn't this been known for it?

Obviously, we don't want it to be corrupt. We would like it to be a stable country. But what about all of this reporting and facts? Dude, the Kolomoisky thing. Okay, so he started serving the people, the TV show. Or he ran or owned the network that ran this show. And then he hired Zelensky to be that role role and then he started a political party called the servant of the people named after the show and then he got salinski to be the his candidate it's the most

ian transparent fascist crazy his vision we'll call it call it whatever you want i'll take a breath this should be an example to everyone listening why it's so important to build culture, why it's so important to make TV shows, make cartoons, make jokes. Freedom Tunes

has a new cartoon out today. I did the voice of Dr. It was a lot of work. We took like half an hour to record this. But if you guys aren't familiar, we have Seamus on the show periodically.

This is humor. It's making fun of Dr. Fauci. So the joke that, I don't want to you know you got to watch it but the general idea is dr fauci hasn't been on tv in months or a month or plus since everyone pivoted over to ukraine from covid so the joke is he keeps calling like hello is anybody there like why don't you answer your phone we're making fun of what the establishment props up what all the cult members when they're all waving their flags and claiming all these things and saying how much they love Fauci, or when

Stephen Colbert had the dancing syringes or whatever he did, or who did the thing where they spun from, there's like a camera angle going up. I think it was Jimmy Kimmel. No, it was Gordon. James Gordon. They dance and it's a picture of Fauci. They're all kind of the same. They're the same person.

We make fun of that. That gives people a space. They feel all kind of the same. They're the same person. We make fun of that. That gives people a space. They feel like they're not alone. But also, going back to what you were saying before with the Daily Wire and creating movies, it's showing all of these people who don't like what's happening in their workplace, there is another place you can work. I'll tell you that. In addition to

making art that shows how ridiculous things are, you can make art. I can make a show where you become the president. In the show, you're a I can make a show where you become the president, and in the show you're a hero and people love you and you save the world. And if that becomes a popular enough show, people will want you to be the president. Well, you know why they made Men in Black, right? No, not, no. Yeah, you guys know the movie Men in Black, of course.

Yeah, the government made that man. Oh, it's alien propaganda? No, because now, when you try and prove that Men in Black are real, no one believes you because it's a movie, man. That's an actual conspiracy theory. Well, the X-Files, too. There's actually a conspiracy theory that the government funds movies so that when you want to talk to someone about the conspiracy theory, they say, that's a movie, dude. What are you talking about? Well, so they do fund more movies than people realize um the actually in in fact the new uh top gun movie

where the it kind of made headlines because the bomber jacket uh bomber jacket had the taiwanese taiwanese flag and the japanese flag taken off well it turns out actually and if you really dig into this the pentagon it sounds like a conspiracy theory it isn't um actually provided a lot of resources to that movie and they use training actually, to be scenes in the movie. So it works out great for Hollywood, and it works out great for the Pentagon, because they want to have the U.S. military look good and all that stuff. But what it means is that our government resources were complicit in removing the Taiwanese flag from the bomber jacket. And it creates this ridiculous cycle.

But theagon absolutely provides resources and what you could clearly say is x amount of dollars to these movies when you guys were saying how we centralize stuff three five and eight the three channels you know it's very new it's very like we had the printing press and all of a sudden we had tv and we have just tv itself and radio it's got to be mind controlling us like crazy it's so new in our species evolution so what's wild is that like and not not to delve too into ukraine specifically but you look at the reporting of it how many of the stories that we see initially come out of ukraine and then it goes 24 to 48 hours and it's completely debunked right and that's because we have the system that we have now

but prior to this did we have anybody going? You know, how could you write? How could you go to the newspaper and understand what was going on in World War Two? Right. Because you weren't on the ground. We didn't have this sort of instantaneous communication system like we do now, where we can communicate with somebody in Ukraine, in Russia, in Belarus, in Poland, literally in real time to understand what's actually happening. And so we're getting these reports. And this is how people like Walter Durante for The New York Times were able to completely cover up things like the Holodomor, like people like Edgar Snow in China were able to talk about the Chinese Cultural Revolution

and the Chinese Great Famine as if, oh, no, they weren't happening. It's this wonderful thing. It's Chinese communism, right? Because you didn't have somebody do that. So the question then becomes, if that's what's happening in Ukraine, and we can see, right, we can see this stuff being debunked, everything almost within 24 to 48 hours, or at least the initial frame is always kind of like slightly different. Like, oh, they hit a, you know, they hit a shopping mall. Oh, wait, but there were tanks operating out of that shopping mall and missile launchers,

right? So, you know, you have to put it in a different context. Then, what does that mean for the rest of history? His story, dude. His story. Some dude wrote it. I don't buy it. I don't believe any of it. The Bible? It's all his story, man.

There's this... There was this thing we had back in the day when I was a little kid called bathroom readers. You ever hear of them? They're big books that you were supposed to buy full of trivia and you just put in your bathroom. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I only – on the bottom of every page was a factoid, and that's what I mostly enjoyed reading. But there's a story in one of them about how there's this great painting of American Revolutionary soldiers chasing off a bunch of fumbling, stumbling regulars. And they say that the original painting was fumbling, stumbling

a revolutionary continental army fleeing well-regulated British regulars. And then every time the painting got recommissioned or the story was retold, it became more and more lopsided in favor of the U.S. Because people were then five years out from what actually happened, then ten years out. And so someone would tell the story of this battle, and it would get embellished a little bit.

And then eventually, American patriotism, they're going to be like, the Americans, they fought hard, and they chased away those spineless cowards. And then you get this image that's totally unrealistic. Napoleon was great at that. He had paintings commissioned of all his officers, his top ones, and make them all look beautiful. And you know they're not that – they weren't. But there wasn't photography at the time.

So my take on this is that when you look at like Instagram culture now and filters and Photoshopping and FaceApp and all of that, that's just what humans have been doing for years, but only the elites could actually afford it. So whoever was commissioning the sculpture with the emperor of Rome, well, of they're going to say you know you're going to make me look like this perfectly chiseled you know features and everything or the pharaoh or the king or whatever aristocrat it was um but then like the first english queen that we actually have photos of i think is queen victoria so look at a photo of queen victoria next to the painting of queen victoria and you're like hey wait a second what What would Donald Trump say about Queen Victoria? I don't know. What's her thing?

No, if you present Donald Trump with a picture of Queen Victoria, how does he react? Alright, let's I don't think you'd be into it. There's a bunch of stories we can choose. I'm choosing this one because sometimes we need a little inanity.

This is from Fox News. Nicole Hannah-Jones goes off on tipping as a legacy of slavery deletes the tweet. Hannah-Jones clashed with historian Phil Magnus over the history of tipping. So here's what happened, right? Everything is slavery. You can also just stop at Nicole

Hannah-Jones clashes with historian. There's two big things happened. Yeah, it's actually kind of. Two big things happened from her tweet within the CRT community, within the woke community. One was that she's right, and the other was that she's racist. So let me read what she said first. She said, tipping is a legacy of slavery, and if it's not optional, then it shouldn't be a tip but simply included in the bill. Have you ever stopped to think why we tip? Like why tipping is a practice in the U.S.

and almost nowhere else? Actually, tipping is widely practiced all over the world. But what some people immediately said. It's not huge in Asia. It's not huge in Asia or Europe. Well, actually, it was offensive in Asia. In Asia, yeah. It's considered like a bribe almost.

Well, so in some countries. The way we would consider a bribe. well so uh in some countries the way we would consider a problem when you have bad service you put extra money down saying you need help do better like you need you need my charity because your business is doing bad so it's considered like an affront to their honor like they they told you what it costs for their service they provided you a service to give them more is to imply they're not doing well and they need help but uh it's it's kind of changing in a lot of the or that they require more to give you a higher level of help right in the in the west it's like demanded anyway but here's what happened first many people agreed with her they were like

you know the stereotype is that black people don't tip well or whatever and her that that's what they were pointing out like her point is you making someone give money for a bad tip is racist and that's where the stereotype i don't know if she said this explicitly but people were saying the stereotype is that people who are black experience bad service because of racism that's why they don't tip i see that's why there's a stereotype about not tipping is because they're mistreated for being black other people said you're literally reinforcing a stereotype about about you know these diners so my point in all this is this is, honestly, I have no idea. I have no opinion because I've not been a server or experienced that.

I can just say, no matter what you do, it's racist. Even when you're Nicole Hannah-Jones, she's the 1619 Project, right? Yeah. Even she's racist. So there's no out. All of you, everyone, at all times, even the person who claims everyone else is racist too. And so I don't know what the aristocrats or something. Well, Tim, you're obviously the wrong person to talk about this.

I mean, you're so bad at diners. You can't even get a reservation at one. How come you didn't get a reservation for that diner anyway? So weird. Yeah. I guess you can't. Isn't it the weirdest thing in the world to me? Dude, I was a waiter.

It's the weirdest thing in the world. It is to me. I was a waiter for about a decade on and off. What about you, Emily? Were you ever? No, I was a camp counselor. I worked at a bakery so like bakery slash deli so we served food but it wasn't like with seating. We did the tip seating, everything.

I had one time I had a couple of older women left me a nickel just so I knew that they didn't forget to tip me. That was insulting. That was when I was early. There's an old 30 Rock episode where, I forget the character's name, but it's John Lithgow's character. And he goes,

I'm going to revolutionize the practice of tipping. I always thought this was great. Where he goes, and I think it's a wager. She comes down and he just plops a stack of ones on the table and he goes, do you see this right here? This represents your potential tip.

Now, if the surface is good, the tip will grow. But if it is poor, the tip will shrink. The final number is up to you. Wow. We're making a game show. It was great. I thought it was great. A lot of waiters and waitresses.

I've always thought of actually doing that. By the way, if you try that in real life, I'm pretty sure your food would get spat in very quickly. Nope. Not if you put a $100 bill or $10 hundreds on the table and say I got $1,000 or however many ready and waiting for you. As the service

declines, the hundreds get removed. Let's see how much you can make at the end of the day. I don't think they'll spend your food. I'll say they'll cheat code for flights. Tip your weight. Tip your sort of says, Oh, when you first come on, totally go to the Starbucks, get like $10 gift card, $15 gift card right there in, you know, while you're, while you're waiting to get out in the terminal, just walk on.

Even if you only give it to one, right. They'll tell the others and they, they know where you are, right? And I guarantee you, your flight will be way better. And when you go to the bar, tip the bartender before you start ordering drinks because then they love you all night. What do you think would happen if you were sitting on a plane, and the flight attendant came over and said, Sir, I'm sorry, you have to wear a mask, and you just handed her a $100 bill instead? And they're like, Oh, I'm sorry, here you go. I'm sorry, they need to wear your mask. When i was waiting tables uh george was a lot of other a lot of other servers

would have been this thing you're saying that black families would not tip well and i hated it and so i did stereotype yeah i one time i had like a family of like five or something i think i'm remembering this relatively clearly and they're black people i don't even think no no their skin was like darker than mine whatever the hell that means i'm not white by the way uh i'm pink uh so these people i was like i don't care i'm not playing this game i gave them the best service i could and they didn't leave me a good tip it was really bad and i just thought they didn't have enough money i didn't care it wasn't racist i don't care you know if you can't afford it you can't afford it it's a tip it's extra it's not meant you know yep my issue is that you get many on the left saying, if you can't afford to tip, you can't afford to go out to eat.

And then I'm just like, you know, I was thinking about that. And I was like, if you can't afford an electric car, you can't afford to drive. There you go. Right. So all the environmentalists who are like, gas is destroying the planet. That's my response to them. You know, look, climate change is bad. If you want to enact policies over climate change, then you've got to put up or shut up.

So don't come to me and be like, we've got to change the wages because if you can't afford a tip, and I'm like, okay, well then don't come to me and say you have a problem with carbon emissions when you're literally a component of the problem. Choose not to be a part of that problem. There's no coherence. When I was in Ohio waiting tables, I was making $2.13 an hour. That was the minimum server wage because you expect to get tips. It's woven into the

process now, so we can undo that. But then when I went to California, I got minimum wage, $12 an hour, and then tips on top of it. That was a California law. I guess we could... No, I just... This is super chat. The Daily Wire wrote about me. We're making a big circle here.

They've all written about you. Absolutely fantastic, brilliant. One of the funniest commercials. I think you might have actually said all that stuff. I did say all that stuff. Here, here, I second it. The Daily Wire knows the moral of culture. I was talking to some of the Daily Wire people.

So now they're going to write an article, Tim Poole raves about the Daily Wire's reporting of the Daily Wire. And here's media bias in a nutshell. What is the byline there? The author of the story, his name is Tim. They know what they were doing. Timception.

Tim on Tim action. I got to wonder. Hold on. Timception. I'm wondering if like Jeremy or Banner or somebody at The Daily Wire saw my video this morning and then came in and said

can someone write this up because it's free advertising for us so let's shout it out or maybe this Tim Meads guy was like hey did you see Tim did a video can I write this up and they were like yeah

I will groom with that thing on air if you send me one yeah let's do it groom with Jeremy's razors perfect yeah shave sounds like some QAnon stuff Groom with that thing on air if you send me one. Yeah, let's do it. Groom with Jeremy's razor. Perfect, yeah. Shave. Sounds like some QAnon stuff.

Don't, don't. Well, but if you get caught, hopefully you get Judge Kataji Brown Jackson. Oh, so Kataji Brown. She'll give you a lighter sentence. Emily, you've been following, so you think she's legitimate? Kataji Brown? Yeah. Would define legitimate. Well, do you support her for Supreme Court?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I mean, I think she's an activist. I think she's an activist judge. And, you know, it's an interesting question because the Senate sort of caught in this period where there used to be courtesy votes in favor of a president's nominee, right? And then they got away from that. And so now you still have the people like the Mitt Romneys of the world, and the Lindsey Grahams of the world and the Susan Collins of the world who think, you know, if somebody is qualified, we give them the courtesy vote, they're the president's choice, etc, etc. But nobody on the left or the right. I mean, that's that's a minority position on the left or the right and the left and the right will pretend that's the consensus

position in when it is favorable to them. But this is a case where you have very much an activist judge and you have this questioning process. It's sort of a given that she's going to be confirmed. But the questioning process is being treated as though in a number of different ways. Like I sat down with Marsha Blackburn last week and I said to her, there is a 100% chance that next week

you are going to be called a racist. It is inevitable that whatever you say in your questioning, you are going to be called a racist. How do you respond to that? Is it time for Republicans? And I actually mentioned Ron DeSantis to start flipping these questions, to start changing the narrative and to stop accepting the premises of these questions. And I think we see a little bit of grappling with that on the right. You definitely see it in DeSantis. You definitely see it with Trump. But I'm not sure that everyone has fully gotten to it, because when you look at what happened with the Kavanaugh confirmation hearing, as has been invoked by many senators just in the early days of Judge Brown Jackson's confirmation hearing, It's night and day. I mean, it's incredible how you have Dick Durbin coming out and saying some of the questions to Judge Jackson have been, you know, teetering near the line. And I was like, what the hell were you guys doing with Kavanaugh then? What were you doing questioning Amy Coney Barrett's faith? What were you doing? What was the media doing when they were talking about whether she might be a racist? Because Ibram X. Kendi, bestselling author,

Ibram X. Kendi, extremely powerful author and commentator, Ibram X. Kendi, best-selling author, Ibram X. Kendi, extremely powerful author and commentator, Ibram X. Kendi comparing her to a white colonizer because she adopted black children. A little bit close to the line there, Dick. I was speaking at an event and we opened up for questions and Sticks, Hex, and Hammer was coming in via Zoom or Skype or whatever back then. And someone asked a question about defending an individual for something they had said. And the individual was like a white nationalist or something. So it felt kind of like a woke journalist tee up to write about.

And as soon as it came up, I was like, are you referring to that guy who's been reported to be a white nationalist? Is that what you're trying to ask about? And then Sticks immediately came in and he said, we shouldn't dismiss people based on opinions that aren't relevant to the conversation. We should answer to the topic that's being brought up before us so we can actually question the idea. You know, we can't fall into that trap of someone being a bad person and all of a sudden the idea they present is dismissed outright because the person said it's bad. Anybody could have an idea like two plus two is four. You know, what do they say? Hitler had a dog, too.

Right. And I just thought that was an excellent response. So, you know, bring this up when we're looking at what's happening with the media trying to accuse you or smear you as being racist. It's just you have to completely disregard it as unserious and irrelevant. But the problem I think we have is that many Republicans care more about the opinion of the New York Times than their own constituents. Yeah, they still do. And that's what's that is what is confounding. And so yeah, go ahead. No, I was just gonna say so you've seen Senator Hawley, right, who's really done the work, you know, that's the new phrase

right now, do the work. He's actually done the work of digging up her record on these lighter than required sentences, lighter than suggested sentences for child porn offenders and child porn distribution. We should probably talk about this issue because she's bringing up, you know, saying, well, it's different now. These laws were written during a time of child pornography distribution by mail. And so it was harder to accumulate this many to accumulate such a large volume of it. And so because of each instance of possessing an item of child pornography, then it meant that that person was a more serious offender. But because of the internet now, it is easier to accumulate large volumes. And so it created what she called a disparity in the system. Whereas, you know, I think most normal people looking at that would say, well, doesn't that just mean it's easier to victimize children? So we should probably be harder against it because it's so much easier to victimize children with child porn other than when it was in the past and you had to do this very surreptitiously um and it also strikes me to that point as what you just said that that's a very activist argument right if you don't like it's a weird things to be an activist for to be completely honest

right you know isn't that isn't that that thing you know you know if somebody keeps talking about it then they you know we have to ask questions about why they keep talking about well why is this the one thing that she seems to be such an activist for? Apologizing. I'm so sorry that you're going to feel shunned now by society. I think that you're a good kid and you only really need three months. I mean, it was just a couple of eight-year-olds. You're not that much older.

This actually was something that she said during a sentencing at one point. That 18 isn't that much older than eight. So it's not that bad isn't there a recording of hillary clinton laughing or something like a child victim or something like that yes yeah she was she was laughing it was in court yeah i would have to go back and look at the i think she was she was involved she was arguing a case in arkansas if i'm remembering correctly she was defending the rapist right Right, yeah. Yeah. But the thing with, even the people attacking Hawley admit that what Judge Jackson did was predicated on this distinction, just as Jack just explained. And yet you have the media, George Stephanopoulos literally saying that Hawley's claims have been debunked by a fact checker. Debunked by a fact checker debunked by a fact checker that's a man who purports to be an anchor at a neutral news network saying that it's been debunked by a fact checker which completely

neutralizes the argument to the public as though josh hawley is some insane person who's peddling outright lies but even the defenders even the people who are attacking hawley are saying that what he said is accurate they just say listen there's this argument in criminal justice reform circles that you can you really do need to give lighter sentences in these cases that the congressional mandatory minimum is wrong. And so is there maybe merit to that argument? I don't know. Perhaps. I mean, it sounds like it has substance. Well, if she wants to make that argument, she can run for Congress and she can change the law because that's how separation of powers works. The legislative body is the one that's supposed to do that, not the justice.

And we don't need more judicial activism on the court. And certainly we don't need judicial activism when it comes to child pornography. You see what's going on now with the Politico reported this. Democrats are trying to get Joe Biden to bypass Congress to push for the progressive agenda because they know Congress is basically deadlocked. So it just sounds more and more with these activist judges that our traditional legislative system has failed a long time ago. I think most people agree this approval for Congress is just absolutely in the gutter.

It's like record lows. So everyone's just sitting there saying, well, representative democracy for legislation doesn't work. Get a judge to just bang a hammer or get Joe Biden to sign a paper. Well, and that's the right point here because that's exactly why we have these super bitter Supreme Court confirmation battles. It's because the legislative branch has kicked the can to the judiciary and to the executive because they no longer function as the legislative branch

should. 100%. Yeah, it's actually really, really scary. I mean, when was the last time that Congress declared war? World War II. Right? 1941. Wow. it's scary following pearl harbor right so i think the ninth yeah i mean the like we take for granted how actually dysfunctional our system is like obviously we know it's dysfunctional but we take for granted how

deep the dysfunction is and how like actually foundational fundamental it is to the way we operate as a country yeah when we started the country was a bunch of private sector dudes bunch of and their wives who we barely know any much about but they they basically got together and started a new government and it's like i look at this poorly run government with a bunch of bureaucrats they're in there for life i don't i don't know if it's salvageable i want to be the guy that's like i want to preserve the the the republic but it's i i was telling you earlier about lou bay from the theance of the Three Kingdoms. He was obsessed with restoring the government, and he just couldn't.

It was a failed attempt. But the reason for this is that the left understood a generation ago, right? And the right is only starting to kind of understand what happened, that their policy prescriptions would not prevail at the ballot box so if they could find a bureaucratic or judicial fix for it then they would go through that way so they get their legislation from the bench and you've seen so many of these social conservative issues or just social issues in general be decided through supreme court cases oberg fell oberg fell or even roe v wade roe v wade i think the quintessential, you know. KCV Planned Parenthood.

Right. So these are all Supreme Court cases. These are not, this was not the original role of the Supreme Court whatsoever. And the idea that Katonji Brown Jackson is saying this sort of stuff, she's actually getting upset that Hawley is calling these things into question because to her mind, as a progressive activist judge, she believes that is the role of the judge to correct what she sees herself as issues in the law. Because of course, that's how you correct it. That's what the judiciary is for, right? The legislative, I mean, that withered and died on the vine years ago.

Exactly. Yeah. That is baked into the role as people see it on the left that like, of course, of course you're offering these corrections. That's what you exist to do. And it's a huge disconnect between left and right, but it's also just a huge disconnect between the left and the constitution. Well, I don't think they much care about the constitution. Oh no, certainly no. Regarding like recovering the Republic, uh, you had mentioned that if we were going to do that, it would be like we take the pieces of it that work and then create new things or strip away things that are broken. Like, are there specific things you'd like to keep and are there specific ones you'd like to keep? Well, I mean, I think that Congress obviously – so Congress abrogated its role of sovereignty a long, long time ago, right?

And so something – people talk about term limits, but certainly something needs to be done with terms for congressmen. I think that's, I don't know if term limits are the right thing because, you know, if you introduce term limits, the lobbyists are just going to run things even more than they do now, right? So term limits aren't necessarily the answer, but you've also got an issue in the executive because the executive and Yarvin writes about this, where the executive branch has essentially under and this was this is very Wilsonian Wilson was very clear about doing this, you know, growing what he called the, you know, essentially the Leviathan, right, this this sort of the organic state was what he called it. We call it the administrative state or the permanent state, the bureaucracy, the civil

service. So this idea that the academy, and the academy and the ivory tower of the Ivy League would make decisions, and then the executive kind of responds to that through these independent agencies, and the bureaucracy is actually running the government. And so the Congress is there to just kind of rubber stamp those decisions. And this is where you get a Dr. Anthony Fauci from, because he comes up not through he's not an elected official nobody ever voted for this guy he's the most powerful bureaucrat in all of washington or he certainly was during the height of the pandemic his pronounce he would go on tv literally making pronouncements that would decide what your child could do in a

local school yeah right from d. This was the complete opposite of how our system is supposed to work, and yet we all went along with it. The best was the double-masking cycle, where he got asked You know Romney still does that. Double-mask? Romney still double-masks. Fauci got asked about double-masking, and they were like, isn't it common sense that two

masks would be good? And he's like, yes, of course, two masks would be good. And then he comes out later having to, no, no, there's no advice saying you should do it. And's like, yes, of course, two masks would be good. And then he comes out later having to. No, no, no, no. There's no advice saying you should do it. And then the CDC comes out and says, yeah, you should double mask. Like the idea of double masking just came from him off the cuff saying it makes sense to do. Right.

Someone heard him say it and then typed it in and pressed enter. And then all of a sudden everybody was doing it. And by the way, masks are bad and they're taking masks away from our first responders. And that's of course, that's what Fauci and the CDC and actually basically our entire federal government was saying. And again, these people do not understand and they have not yet reckoned with the level of distrust that exists in the public. But the big thing is not only do they have to reckon with that, they have to not see it as just abject bigotry. Right. Like this is anybody who disagrees with me as an idiot toothless rube bigot they have to understand actually why people distrust them and understand that the blame lies with them but that is what they will absolutely never do well that

was the point i mentioned earlier where someone tweeted you know it's time to remind everybody that brett kavanaugh was credibly accused by christine blasey ford and republicans didn't care and it's like no it's because it was made up. It didn't happen. You wouldn't need to put the word credibly in front of it if it was legitimate. And it was like 30 years ago. Her own friends that she didn't remember it didn't even didn't even know if it was Brett. And they're trying to make it seem like.

Let me just tell you, man. It was squee. Remember squee? Squee. Let me just let me just say naughty words. I'm sorry. But he had the calendar. Let me. Yes. The calendar. Beers. Beers, babes. Beers? Squee. Let me just say naughty words on YouTube for a moment. He had the calendar.

Yes, the calendar. Beers. Beers, babes. Beers with Squee. They accused a federal judge of being party to gang rapes. Plural. Excuse me, not just they. Jake Tapper.

Jake Tapper, this paragon of we're supposed to believe that he's the most uh you know right down the lines just calling balls and strikes he had who on air right michael avenatti and julie setwick was the client at the time come on accusing brett kavanaugh at the time a federal judge and going up for the highest court in the land accused him of being a member of a gang rape frat during high school and running this thing. What did they say?

They would line up outside of a room with a woman inside and they would go in and just take turns. That's insane. There's no evidence for anything like that and and no no sane person would believe such a ridiculous story but you know what man they just keep saying it so i have to wonder how many people actually believe at this point what they keep saying but

and this is a point that i've made about the riots in the summer of 2020 and and i think it's a mistake the right makes sometimes is that like we we just are like, oh, crazy people, etc, etc. But people rioting in 2020 have been told for their entire lives. So I was born in 1993. But even people younger than me, they have been told their entire lives that they live in a country that is dripping with racism, systemic racism, that it is evil. And they've been told this from every institution, sexism, racism, all of these things are institutional, their institutions are telling them that. And so what do you expect is going to happen in this country? You have to find a way to sort of like penetrate that audience,

make that argument reasonably, because people have been indoctrinated to the point where they believe, and I think reasonably so, if all of your institutions are telling you this for years and years and years, everyone, everyone is telling you this. Oprah's telling you this. Your teachers are telling you this. It and years and years. Everyone, everyone is telling you this. Oprah's telling you this. Your teachers are telling you this. It's coming from everyone. I mean, yeah, you might riot.

I mean, it's not right, but you can understand the sort of impetus for it. The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. And if all others accepted the lie, which the party imposed, if all records accepted the lie which the party imposed if all records told

the same tale then the lie passed into history and became truth george orwell yeah that's why i just love it when joe biden's like i was in a secure meeting with the military officer said there's going to be a new world order and they're like that didn't happen that's a conspiracy right so you can you actually see it now it's it's like it's like they it's like somebody gets on the phone. Right. And calls up and says, oh, you've got to get the fact checkers out. You know, someone. So a fact check is now the New York Times. is actually just a software upgrade for the NPCs that you have to push out every time someone short circuits the false reality, short circuits the simulation. Like a patch. Right. So it's a patch that has to be pushed out every time one of the NPCs comes into contact with actual reality. Right. So anytime that Joe Biden comes out and says, oh, by the way, there's a new world order. And I was just talking to the secret military about this in this meeting. They have to push out. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Just

so you know, or, you know, Josh Hawley comes up and said, hey, how come you were given all these, you know, child porn traffickers, these, you know, these light sentences? Whoa, whoa, whoa. We have to put out a fact. And if you notice in Lydia, you were even talking about this earlier that in the fact checks, all the fact checks admitted that holly was correct yes they did but they just box reason yeah but they they try to explain it away and yet they label it as a fact check yeah and it never once says fact check true because it was this is they just say it's been fact checked i included this i did a segment earlier on the joe biden new world order thing and there's a website called logicallyically that is a fact-checker.

And they said, you know, Ukrainian MP passively mentioned a New World Order triggering widespread conspiracies. It was taken out of context. And here's what they did. It was an amazing – it was actually – I shouldn't say amazing. It was amazing that they attempted to pull this off. They said, the New World Order conspiracy theory is very similar to the great reset. And the great reset conspiracy is just wrong to the Ukrainian MP was not talking about any kind of great reset. And I'm like, yes, she wasn't.

She literally said new world order. But they just did this leapfrog where it's like, did the Ukrainian MP discuss a conspiracy about a great reset? False. While she did say she's fighting for a new world order, she did not talk about a great reset. That's the game they play. It's like, you're right. They are both similar in the extent that they're both the explicit ambitions of the global

elite. So if these people are lying to you, and we know they've lied to us about Kavanaugh, we know they've lied to us about Russiagate. We can see that they're lying to us in real time about Judge Jackson, yet we're told that we have to believe every single utterance they make about what's happening in Ukraine, thousands of miles away, where we don't have direct contacts unless you're going to these places like Telegram, like using VPNs, getting other places, having to translate it to actually find out what's going on on the ground.

Yet we're just supposed to take that all as true. Well, basically the country experienced a soft coup when Woodrow Wilson was president, when the Federal Reserve was formed and they took control. And they lied about it. We didn't know. People didn't know about it until 15 years ago. And then the Internet broke out and loose change came out. And you start to realize the Federal Reserve and the print, they lied the whole time.

This whole organization has been, they pulled the wool over the American people's eyes to print their money and take their sons to war. So check this out. We talked about the value of a nickel on the show a couple weeks ago and we read somewhere that it was like a nickel is 75% what I think copper and 25% nickel

and because nickel is skyrocketing in value like the actual metal, that the value of a nickel is 75% where I think copper and 25% nickel and because nickel is skyrocketing in value with the actual metal that the value of a nickel is actually up. The value of a nickel right now is actually 10 cents. Now you can't destroy currency but we're in this weird time where the legal currency of the nickel is worth less than what the actual

metal is worth. And so good luck buying nickels. No, no, no, no joke. go online and try and get nickels for your business it's it's no wonder there was a coin coin shortage during covet because people were probably hoarding all of their nickels because it's just the the nothing i forgot why i brought this up what were we talking about just a moment ago nickel man let's go deep oh about the federal reserve oh right right right right the federal reserve i'm just thinking about how currency became completely nonsensical.

It used to be that you'd have silver. Dimes, nickels, and quarters were made of specific metals that had value. And you knew that a quarter was a specific amount of that metal. Now, nothing makes sense. Pennies are made of like zinc. Yeah, copper-plated zinc. Copper-plated zinc. But nickels, for some reason, still have nickel.

But now nickels through the roof, so that's not going to make sense for much longer. The Federal Reserve, at some point, I'm just looking at these news reports about how the government was like, we hereby order all people to give their gold to the government. Just think about when it was like 1933, right? When they were like, you have to turn

all of your gold over. Imagine the government coming to your house and saying, you have to give us all your money. Like, hey, house and saying, you have to give us all your money. Like, hey, Putin invaded Ukraine, you have to give us everything you own. Yeah, no, no joke. And people were just like, yep. Did you see this... I'm just seeing something come across that this thing that Tucker had tonight

about the FBI and KBJ's nomination. So, apparently Tucker got an email that went out internally with the FBI in their L.A. office that the FBI's L.A. Women's and Black Affairs Committee held a nomination party for Ketanji Brown Jackson. The invitation reads lots of celebrating. The party is set for March 23rd. So that's tomorrow. And in a conference, Christy Coons Johnson, the assistant director in charge of the L.A. field office, is the featured speaker. So they're actually holding nomination parties for a partisan political appointee of the president of the United States in the FBI's office.

Didn't you hear that they had recently changed the name to FBDI, the Federal Bureau of Democratic Investigations? Oh, right. No, no, no. The FBI is totally neutral. Totally neutral. Do not take sides. I also want to –

The FBDIAWHR, the Federal Bureau of Democratic Investigations, and we hate Republicans. Well, it turns out we're all Republicans. And James O'Keefe. Because we live in a republic. No, no, no. Oh, yes. No, we're all Republicans because we're all irredeemable bigots.

Yeah. That's it. I think literally we all live in a republic, so we're all Republicans. Yes, yes. You'd think. But except, as Stephen Marsh pointed out in the show, half the country is a multicultural democracy, and the other half is a constitutional republic, and they can't coexist. We're a multicultural democracy of Republicans. that's actually a great point yeah half the country doesn't doesn't believe

or even acknowledge the constitutional republic right um i remember you know talking to people who had gone like to public school you know a friend of mine when i was you know still working they would say well you know did you know that we're actually not a democracy and i looked at them like yeah i mean obviously right you know how could you not know that but they're like but my whole life i was taught the united states is a democracy and we need to be a democracy so we need to get rid of this constitution thing that's what they're taught whoa who was that it was a friend of mine growing up. Oh, okay. But had been through this completely separate educational track than I had been through. I was all Catholic school.

She was all public high school, public grade school. And was very upset and emotional over the fact that she found out later on that actually, in fact, we were a constitutional republic. I went through a phase where I really disliked the House of Representatives just as an institution, and I thought they were getting bribed. I mean, I still don't like that they're bribed. They're soft targets. What do you mean? That's not a phase.

That's not a phase, Ian. I was like, repeal the – That's real. Get rid of the House of Representatives, and Mike Revell was like, that's going a little too far, Ian. I went through a phase where I just drank water to survive. Oh, yeah, me too. I'm still in that phase. Were you breathing air, too?

I've thought about it. What it came to is like I like the institution. I like the function of the republic just that there's a stop gap between the citizens and then the legislators.

But I don't think they need to be people. I think it could be like organized mechanically with like smart contracts and things. Right. Because the people

are just too vulnerable. It's a vulnerability in our system. They get bribed, bribed, bribed. And even if they have term limits, the new ones are going to come in They get bribed, bribed, bribed. And even if they have term limits, the new ones are going to come in and get bribed, bribed, bribed. Yeah.

They're going to keep getting bribed. So it goes. But, you know, I wonder if it's, many of these members of Congress just don't know. They have no principles. So they're simply looking at what gets me elected. The principle's power. Is it? Right.

Yeah. It's fascistic. Right. Across the board. I Is it? Right. Yeah, it's fascistic. Across the board, I don't care if they're, it's majority of Republicans, save maybe like the Freedom Caucus, a few Republicans, almost all of the Democratic Party just basically are like, all that matters is power. That's it.

Well, Mitch McConnell, it's the Mitch McConnell governing philosophy. It's not about any ideological agenda. It's about maintaining power for the Republican Party. And that is great for the lobbyists. It's great for the politicians. It's great for that class of people. But if you don't do anything with that power, it completely is telling that you actually have no... Who's voting for this guy? No, but this is actually...

I have Lindsey Graham, too. This is actually what is confounding a lot of our policymakers when it comes to Russia, because they say, well, we're going to go after the oligarchs because we assume that the oligarchs control Russia the same way they control the United States. Right. So they think, well, in the United States, if we just went after the mega donors, then obviously the politicians would have to do what we want. So they try to craft their Russia policy based on how the United States government works. But that's not how the Kremlin works. And that's not how like Vladimir Putin doesn't answer to his oligarchs. They answer to him. It's completely

separate from the way the United States works. So when you look at the way that they're lashing out at Russia, it's actually more relevatory in how the United States system works, because they assume that's how you can put pressure on the Kremlin, because that's how you would put pressure on the President of the United States, on the Congress, on the Senate, et cetera. Super short-sighted. And that's what they did in Afghanistan, too. They set up an American-style government. And then when they pulled out the American-style people, the thing fell apart.

It's called the liberal world order, bro. It's a tribal country. No, no, it is. The CFR website that I pulled up, the CFR website I pulled up, the Council on Foreign Relations said the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund are how they implement their liberal world economic order. So you go to these countries and say we're basically, like it's a bribe,

essentially. We're going to give you money for development, we're going to give you this big loan, but that means these countries become beholden to their debt holders. It rapidly modernizes the country. It's good for a lot of people who live there, you know, the standard of living skyrockets, but now the country is beholden to who holds their i think chile is going through that right now their standard of living just exploded in the last 20 or 30 years but right then you've got coca-cola and then you've got countries that reject it like

belarus syria libya iraq under saddam afghanistan obviously for a variety of reasons north korea for a variety of reasons and so Korea for a variety of reasons. And so all of those countries are therefore evil and they must be destroyed. Let's go to Super Chats. It's time. If you have not already, smash that like button,

I really like this one. Raymond G. Stanley Jr. says, Black Hole Sun,

won't you come? Wash away the rain. They're all just Soundgarden fans. They're not Nazis. They're just Soundgarden fans. Well, so here we go. The Physicality Channel says, Timcast fell to Russian propaganda which uses the same methods as the left when it labeled MAGA people as Nazis. Ukraine is not a Nazi country.

Putin started the war in 2014 by invading Crimea. It sounds like a comment from somebody, and with all due respect, I don't think you watch this show. I think maybe you caught an episode and then you put that, because I think anybody who watches this knows that we very much have, like, been heavily critical of Putin, heavily critical of the annexation of Crimea and the Donbass region and his invasion. But pointing out facts about one battalion

and questioning why people in the United States would support the battalion when they've overtly opposed those same ideologies before, that's all reality. I don't think it's fair for the super chatter to frame it as if we've said that Ukraine is a Nazi country. There's a Nazi battalion in the country.'s clearly someone who just like put in that comment without actually listening to any of the show jm says you guys should try to get the lead singer from muse on

they just dropped a banger of a song and also i love you ian keeps spreading those good vibes matthew bellamy i am a huge fan but uh i'm not sure if they're know, if Muse is like woke left or whatever. Well, based on their songs, I don't think they care for the government. Well, yeah, but I think something happened where I think Glenn Beck used a song of theirs. Yeah, it used to be his intro was Muse. Yeah, and then they came out and said they like they denounced him and said the right stole conspiracy. The left used to do it. And I'm just like Muse.

I can sum up Muse. It's one of my all-time favorite bands. I can play a ton of their songs on guitar. But the way I describe Muse is, I love you, but the government is taking over. That's like the gist of all of their songs. Sometimes they actually write songs that have both those elements. Yeah, it's great. And I'm just like, how do you make a song about government authoritarianism and you loving someone?

It's called nihilism. I still remember before they got big, they actually played My College. Oh, really? Like years and years ago at Temple University.

And so we got to go. They were big going back into like the early 2000s, dude. The early 2000s. Yeah. But I mean, the show itself was like a couple hundred people maybe.

Whoa. And it was so great. Wow. So great. Man, I've been a fan itself was like a couple hundred people maybe. Whoa. And it was so great. Wow. So great. Man, I've been a fan of Muse for a long time. They're a great band. Yeah, and I like how they sing about how the government is bad. That's right.

It's pretty good. It's like, hey, I love you. Yeah, but a lot of the people who sang about why the government is bad, Neil Young, now believe that corporations are good. What was up with Bad Religion writing that pro-alt-right song? Yeah, that was so weird. Did you guys hear that one? No.

I don't know if they were trying to be tongue-in-cheek. It was critical of the alt-right, but it's called The Kids Are Alt-Right. And the song has, you know, it's pro-alt-right. I don't understand. Well, there's that Who song, The Kids Are Alt-Right. Right, right, right. Bad Religion wrote a song called The Kids Are Alt-Right. Right, right, right. Bad Religion wrote a song called The Kids Are Alt-Right, and

in the song, he's basically just advocating for the alt-right. Yeah, which I don't understand. So it's the anthem of the Azalpachin. I'm seeing that Matt Bellamy went on with Alex Jones multiple times. I'm going to have to look that up. I'm curious. Now I've got to check it out. Really? Yeah, I'm going to look it up now.

Is that true? I think The Kids Are Alt up. I'm curious. Now I got to check it out. Really? Yeah, I'm going to look it up now. Look it up. Yeah, I saw it in the chat. I think the kids are all right is talking about Nazism in Germany. Like they're talking about pure hearts race on a crystal night. Like that's crystal knocked as well. Oh, yeah.

Yes, yes. But they don't, like the song doesn't insult them. It praises them. Oh, yeah, you're right. Join the party. The kids are all right. Everybody needs somebody.

So join the party. It's like, are they trying to be trying-in-cheek? Because there may be a bunch of kids who just don't understand you're singing the praises of all these people. Right. It's probably an anthem against conformity. Or is it one of those Straussian things where like, no, no, we're against it, even though we're, you know. Like satire?

Let's read some more. They want you to think it's satire, but maybe it's not. Hannah Carter says, Tim, can my daughter's book get a shout-out, please? She's nearly eight, autistic, and wants to be the next Beatrix Potter. I'm very proud of her. The Tale of the Red Squirrels by A. Carter on Amazon. Thanks.

Sounds good. There you go. Cute, yes. Nice work. Love that author. T-A-I-L. All right. Make 1984 Fiction Again says, Nice work. Love that author. T-A-I-L. All right.

Make 1984 Fiction Again says, the first 15 minutes of this show, you described Destiny, a.k.a. Stephen Bonnell III. How did we describe him? What were we referring to? I'm not sure. We've had him on the show before.

I thought it was great. Were we talking about him? It was yesterday we were talking about him. The other day we talked briefly about him because people were praising him. I think it was, Lewis was saying, he's someone on the left who's willing to look at the facts and call out the left

if he has to. And he did that with Kyle Rittenhouse. I think a lot of people are coming from their past with like he was probably raised in that environment but they have the clear mind and they want to know the truth but they're bringing all their baggage so they've got to kind of shed it away as they learn. That's how I was. I like Dustin. He's a sweet guy. Hey Tim, before we move on, I just want to

say that I went to Band.TV and it says Alex Jones inspired Matt Bellamy to write Uprising. Is that true? I don't know. Is Alex Jones playing the lead or is Matt Bellamy playing the lead? I don't know. I'm going to find out. When was the last time Matthew Bellamy appeared on?

2006. That's a long time ago. This was written in 2021. Yeah, so Alex Jones used to be kind of considered like a part of the left, right? Right. Because he was anti-Bush. Real quick. Go look at Paul Joseph Watson's early YouTube videos.

You know what they're about? They're anti-police brutality videos. Well, that's why it was Prison Planet. Right. Opposing government authority. Right. Oppression. You know, all that stuff.

Right. So that's why if you watch the movie A Scanner Darkly with Keanu Reeves, it used to be this hipster thing to be a secret fan of Alex Jones. They would say, oh, he's quirky, but he's against Bush, so we like him. And Alex Jones has that cameo where he drives by with a

bullhorn. No, no, he gets arrested. Or he gets arrested, yeah. And then Keanu Reeves is walking down. Whoa. That's that Rotoscope movie? Yeah, it's Rotoscope. Yeah. That's a good movie. It is a good movie. I like it.

I like it. All right. Let's see what we got here. Dennis Gregerson says, is the senator from Hawaii, Presley, going to ask the nominee if she has ever been charged or suspected of harassment? Apparently, she asks every nominee or so she says. Maisie Hirono. Yeah.

Is that her? Yeah. Maisie Hirono. Is she going that her? Yeah, Maisie Hirono. Is she going to ask that? Crazy Maisie. Yeah, I don't know. Probably not because, again, you're making yourself vulnerable to accusations of bigotry and sexism, which, God forbid, Maisie Hirono ever, ever approached that line. All right.

Fluffer Boy 2004 says, Oh, boy. Do you think The Daily Wire will start producing music? Jack, stop sending in comments. That wasn't that. I was logged in to the other. That was a long time ago. Okay.

That was an older. You know, the approach we've had for like the cultural stuff has been we've done three. Well, we've done four things. The Daily Wire is doing movies and they want to do shows and I actually have a really good idea for a joint show with The Daily Wire and I was like mid-show I literally hit up Dallas and I'm like I got an idea Dallas is great

We've been talking to them, they want to do a show but I think I have the perfect show and I'm not going to say anything just yet but we've done a few things First we did Tales from the Inverted World which is murder, mystery, paranormal, investigations and the new series we're working on apparently First, we did Tales from the Inverted World, which is murder, mystery, paranormal investigations. And the new series we're working on apparently is absolutely off the wall. Season two, the next book we're doing and the next series of podcasts.

So Shane Cashman, who's our investigator and writer, he went down to the Georgia Guidestones and was checking it out. And he has pictures. There's people dying. And he went down there to look for the lost Confederate gold. So there's ghosts. There's apparently threatening... I can't say too much because I don't know about the legal issues, but there are threats.

People do not want this investigation. So this is not overtly political. It's like fun, mystery, true crime-ish murder. People are dying. It's fun. So then we've also done Pop Culture Crisis, which subscribe to Pop Culture Crisis on YouTube. This is a pop culture show with the crew and it's hosted by brett dasavik we've done um what was i going to say the other one was we have chicken city chicken city is just a live stream of

chickens and it's really good by the way we got monetized so now you can super chat and play sounds but we're going to be building that up chicken city is also great by the way if you have pets that stay home by themselves because pet Because dogs will just sit and stare at that for hours. They do. We love it. Cats do too. And the chickens just bug, bug, bug. But we're also doing music.

And so I feel like The Daily Wire has gone this traditional route where they're doing movies and shows and stuff. And we've gone more of the digital route with YouTube channels like Cast Castle and Pop Culture Crisis. And so I feel like I want to see what they're up to because we're very much interested in doing shows, but that's not our area. And so we talked with them and they were like, we'd love to do a show with you. So I have an idea for a show that I think

is a really good idea for a show. Yeah, I think I know the one you're talking about. Think X-Files. Yeah. But I can't say too much. And that's the realm where you need the sort of creativity and innovation because the music industry, much to the chagrin of some huge artists and for some good reasons, actually has been democratized.

So there are a lot of like really heterodox artists making music that you can find on Spotify because the barrier to entry has been lowered significantly. And that still doesn't exist in like movie theaters or on cable TV. Whereas TV shows, that's where you actually really need to have the production value and you need to have the viewership. Let's read this one. Kevin Villa says, how will Hollywood react when the Daily Wire makes a movie that is so Oscar worthy

they have to be nominated or win? They won't nominate it. But who cares about the Oscars? It won't get nominated, but it will make a splash and change the world. All right. Dragon Lady says, Tim, Tim, Tim, in your first episode today,

the next generation episode with Picard proving data sentience is measure of a man, not make. Thank you for the correction. The one with the Romulan grandfather was the drum head. Thank you for the correction. Sins of the father

was about Worf's family. Great freedom tunes today. Love your Fauci. Yes. I said make of a man. It's measure of a man. And I said, I'm not sure what the episode is

where they're trying to hunt down the Romulan spy because the guy's got a Romulan grandfather. But I thought, it's measure of a man and I said I'm not sure what the episode is where they're trying to hunt down the Romulan spy because the guy's got a Romulan grandfather but I thought like it's not Sins of the Father I don't think and thank you for the correction

but I posted a clip from The Next Generation and for anybody who hasn't seen Star Trek have you watched The Next Generation? No. You need to

and you? Yes you have and everyone else? You must because there's probably a lot of people who... I'm surrounded by losers. See, that's exactly...

We're going galactic. This is exactly what I'm going to point out right now is the problem. You don't watch Star Trek because it's like... I don't like Star Wars. Star Wars is fantasy, magic powers. Star Trek is watching a classically liberal society technologically advanced and captain picard is a role model and as a fictional character patrick stewart's portrayal absolutely life-changing as a kid to see this there's there's a scene i posted because we're watching it before

the show posted it on twitter date is an android he creates uh he creates a daughter he creates a new version of himself it's the only He's the only android in existence. So the Federation is an admiral, and he's like, we have to seize it because it's too powerful of a technological advancement. And so he tells Data to give up his kid, and Data says, you know, this is my child, and I have a duty to my child.

And the admiral says, then I'm ordering you to give up your child. And then Picard says, belay that order. The admiral goes, I beg your pardon. Data. And then Picard goes, Data, stand your ground. And then the admiral says, you are risking your command and your career. And Picard smirks and says, there comes a time when men of good conscience must disobey orders that are unjust or something to that effect.

And he says, to compel a man to give up his child to the state, not while I'm captain. And I'm just like clapping. Classical liberalism, classical civil libertarianism, all of those values, telling your commanding officer that I will sacrifice my career,

my command and everything to defend one person's rights and their freedoms and liberties. Oh, man. That show is just gold. And I wish we had something like that. One of many episodes where in real life Picard would immediately be relieved of command. Right?

Yes, yes. Yeah. Obviously the worst captain in Starfleet. Everyone knows Cisco. Cisco is by far the best commander. He was great. What's the one where he stages the false flag? You know what I'm talking about?

With the Cardassians? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I can't remember it. But I will say. I know, right? To the writer's credit, you're right about him being relieved of command. In the episode, before anything can happen, there's an emergency call, and they rush to the lab where Data's daughter is dying. And so the Admiral is then desperately trying to save Data's daughter and says, I'm sorry.

And that's what prevents it from escalating beyond Picard. I think what part of what made that show so phenomenal In any real Navy, Picard would be really Oh, I mean, he's violated time directed How many times he ever became in command of any actual starship? Patrick Stewart was a starship. Theatrically trained actor. He had massive stage presence and knew how to project the entire

soundstage. So he was commanding with his voice. Not just his rank. You look at Janeway and I thought she had such a weak voice that if she's down the hall yelling commanding orders, it's like... Picard! I thought they didn't command with their voices the way that

Picard did. Isn't today William Shatner's birthday? Oh, happy birthday. 91. All of the 90s era Star Trek shows were good. Voyager just was like a C plus. 90s rocked.

Was it? I didn't see any of them after. I tried. I'm an Enterprise fan. It's not a bad show. Prequels. Die on that hill.

I wanted to like it. Excuse me, it is not just a prequel. It is also far in the future. Hey, I think I found out that Alex Jones was not in A Skinner Darkly

but in Waking Life. No, he's in both. He's in both. They're both Richard Linklater films yeah yeah all right let's read some more we got kristen himmel says tim we need to stop supporting the woke corporations that hate our values there is an app called public sq public square public square that is fighting against this and has a marketplace of over 4 000 businesses that support conservative values you should interview the ceo Michael Selford. So I actually know about Public Square.

Recently got acquainted with them. It's amazing. So it's basically like I kind of describe it as like next door but for companies that don't hate you. So you can download it on whatever platform you have. They're both on Apple and Android. And you can go in. If you just want something like, hey, I want to go to a restaurant

that's all locally sourced, you can do that. Or you can find whatever service you want. You can plug in your address. You can find ones that are in your area. And if you are someone who wants to be listed on something like that, you can just put up a thing for free.

Public Square is actually really, really cool when it comes to that stuff. And this is just something that obviously should exist. The wrong writer says, a free man thinks rules are followed. A slave thinks rules are enforced. Did you guys know that

since the New York Times took over Wordle, you can't put the word slave in? I did not know that. That's scandalous. So for those that don't know what Wordle is, you get a five-letter word and you get six tries. I thought of a response to that comment. The slave one?

No, no, the guy's comment. Oh, yeah. Well, what's your response? My response is the shopping cart theorem. Yeah. You familiar with the shopping cart theorem? Well, there's the shopping cart test, but what's the – The idea being that there are people who will put the shopping cart back and there are people who will not put the shopping cart back. You suffer no penalty for not putting the shopping cart

back. You will incur no fee or fine. No one's ever going to come and chase you down and indict you for this. And yet you do it because you are an upstanding member of society and this is the rule. However, there are people who will not put the shopping cart back and they are the ones who, because of them, we require law enforcement. Hold on. What you're missing from that is that the shopping cart test is it's a minor inconvenience to you with no reward but also no penalty. But it's the right thing to do to return the shopping cart to the corral. However, you go to stores, and what you see, shopping carts are everywhere

strewn about. And that's our society. I worked at a grocery store and was the bag boy and cashier and all that. And I would collect the carts. I always take the carts back. It feels good to do a good deed for another person. It does. Especially when you... Right, but that means you're a good citizen. If you can give a little and that other person gets a lot

out of it, that's a valuable trade for you, even if you're never going to see that person. But Ian, not everyone in society believes the way you believe or I believe because they are not good citizens. And because of people who are willing to forego that inconvenience as a detriment to society, that's what then necessitates the rules and the enforcers of the rules. Well, that's the John Adamsams if men were angels right no government would be necessary but and that is it's it's sort of a cliche but sorry libertarians yeah yeah joshua leblanc says about time emily is on the show federalist radio hour is great and she killed it on rising cool well thanks that's so nice of you first time you're on yes first time i was. I appreciate the shout out for Federalist Radio Hour because it's a daily show like what you guys do.

And you guys know that's a lot of work. It is. Oh, yeah. When do you do your show? What time is it? I mean, I pre-tape some. I do some the same day. So it's just kind of a constant grind.

But you guys know that. Does it always go up at the same hour every day? No. I mean, it usually goes up around 5 p.m. Oh, okay. Cool beans. Yeah. All right. Justin Williams says, the same hour every day no we just i mean it usually goes up around 5 p.m okay yeah cool yeah all right justin williams says do you think the convention of states will be a way to save the government from itself absolutely not no why is that no and i just think there's so many of

these sort of do nothing um things out there that sound good on paper but at the end of the day if you're not addressing what what emily brought, this idea of our judiciary being completely out of control or also this idea of the executive and the tie between the executive and the academy, that if you're not addressing any of that stuff directly, then it's just not going to go anywhere. And even something as substantive as calling a convention of the states,

which would require a Herculean sort of public effort to even make happen, you're still going to be basically tinkering around the margins until you deal with what jack just said yeah yeah like the president could just be like no we're going to override anything the convention said and the administrative state i mean we just talked about it i mean look at what the education department does and what you just said about the fed yeah right this is the century in the making more yeah or yeah potentially more yeah all, X says,

Ian, did you get the book I sent you? The Book of Antithesis. It's an occult grimoire of real magic for D&D Dungeon Masters. It's now available in the US web store from the Lamentations of Flame Princess. Don't mess with the cult. Don't do it. Love it. Don't do it.

Don't mess with the cult. Absolutely not. I've been wanting to do... I've been wanting to do a D&D based on Don't do it. Do not mess with the cult. I don't know if I got that or not. Absolutely not. Do not screw around with such things. I've been wanting to do a D&D based on like – D&D, fine. Sure. No, no, no. I'm all into demonology. I think his story made them evil, but they're not actually –

I wanted to do a D&D based on modern politics. So it's like running for all campaign instead of fighting dragons. And so it's what they did with Podesta. Yeah, they came up with a game for the 2020 election. Right. So I'm like, I would love to play a game like that and film it. Ever since I read that, they war-gamed. Didn't they have Trump declared martial law or something?

It got nuts. It would be hilarious. It would be like, Ian could play as Hillary, and he'd be like, I'm going to run in 2028 and she looks like Skeletor. Critical success. Critical success. Plus 80 to my role because I'm familiar with the Council on Foreign Relations.

That would be hilarious to film. We should do that. We should call it the Liberal World Order. The Liberal World Order. Oh, yes, we should. Yeah, I like that. Seamus can be Trump. Yeah.

That'll be fun. And then we'll just see how uh we should do that for 2024 that'd be fun yeah yeah we should do it that'd be great all right let's see what we got elijah j kramer says this group is

always high on free speech and i think all would agree it's a cornerstone of our republic why then do i not see any of you on gab it's the only true free speech platform i'm on Gab. I posted on Gab last night. I don't

post on Gab all that often. It's tough because you've got to go to every network and post on every network separately. Facebook, Twitter. And so my tweets auto-post to mine, so that's been simple for me. And I understand the necessity. I post on Twitter because it's helpful to sort of amplify the message, but I actually

and I talked to, at the time, the CEO of Parler about this. You cannot just replicate these evil secular platforms without changing the addictive functionings of them, right? So like you cannot just come up with Gab or Parler or Rumble, all of which I think are great sort of test balloons, or Rumble at least, I think is a good test balloon. And I think Parler was as well, that sort of are saying, well, look, there is a market for this, do it it better and you will attract customers and you capitalists can take your money but we can't just do that if we're replicating the the mechanisms that keep people sick and addicted and depressed on different places and so i'm already on one of those i don't feel the need to to do it more than once yeah i think if rumble by the way if they're

able to integrate rumble with sort of some of the stuff we're talking about, with Daily Wire and streaming and some of these things, that is going to... Because Rumble is obviously already fantastic, but you get that integration going, that would take it to the next level. Rumble needs a kind of like Twitter. Yeah. A microblogging function.

It would make them huge. Yeah. It's hard, though, because when you... That's what YouTube forgot to do, was integrate a little Twitter function in the early days. With locals. The challenge is, yes, but the challenge is when it gets too cluttered. Right. So a lot of people tell me Mines is too cluttered.

Yeah, it's like trying to do everything at once. You've got lots of buttons and stuff. Once you figure it out, it's phenomenal, but there's just a high learning curve. Yeah. All right, let's read this. Sequitur Tenebris says, quick PSA if anybody else hasn't done it,

a major tornado just went through the lower ninth ward of New Orleans. Major damage and loss of life. They don't have enough ambulances. Man, sorry to hear. I hope everybody is okay. Actually, my producer at Human Events Daily, actually, she's from Louisiana,

and she was saying that her family got a tornado warning earlier today. Oh, wow. Okay. They're good. Oh, wow. That's awful. All right. Wicked Liss says, A series you should do, Tim, and maybe with Seamus, is create cartoons explaining how government works,

a.k.a. old cartoon, I Am Just a Bill. Seamus actually has a show, it's Common Sense Soapbox, I think. Yeah. That he does a lot of... F.E.E. Yeah, with F.E.E. Basically does that. Yeah. That's great.

All right. Hamrod says, Dan Crenshaw is not establishment guys. YouTubers are. What is that? Was that a reference to something? No, I think we're like,

is that sarcastic? We invited Dan on the show and he said yes. And then he said, no, not surprising. I mean, I think it's trying to make this point that youtubers who decry cancel culture rightfully so are in some ways very much like they have become very powerful that doesn't make you establishment uh and and that's a huge mistake i think people make although it's an easy one to make if you're establishment you're beholden to all of this this infrastructure that includes

special interests um and if you're a youtuber that's really powerful i mean you have to maintain the trust of your audience um and that's a very different thing all right ryan brown says if you think the fourth turning is real then look at the rensberg prophecies it's very detailed and geopolitically accurate from 100 years ago. Interesting. You know what's fascinating? Is the story of Barron Trump from the 1800s. The underground, what is it? The underground journey or something? It's got to be fake. I don't know.

Yeah, what is this? Yeah, I know. It can't be real. Ingersoll Lockwood or whatever, was it the name? And apparently the book's real, but someone had to have written it and then claimed it was from a long time ago. My favorite Barron Trump conspiracy theory is that Steve Bannon is Barron Trump from

the future sent back to guide his father. Oh, that makes sense. It's called the Barron Trump novels from 1889. In the novel, hold on. In one of the novels, Trump Castle on Fifth Avenue is attacked by socialists and anarchists from the Lower East Side of Manhattan. That's actually in the book. So weird. This is not real, is it?

So weird. They remained obscure until 2017 when they received media attention for perceived similarities. There's a meme of Trump from the 1980s. The meme just goes, Donald Trump, 1980. Why do time travelers keep trying to kill me? I'm just a real estate guy. I'd love to see people on the Lower East Side riot.

That'd be fun. Without locking up their lives. There we go. Lissandra in Dreamwalker says, Star Trek Deep Space Nine in the pale moonlight. Talk about a good TV show. I just haven't been able to get into it. You guys Trek Deep Space Nine in the pale moonlight. Boom. Talk about a good TV show. Boom.

I just haven't been able to get into it. You guys like Deep Space Nine? Did you watch this episode? No, no. I don't think so. It's the only Star Trek series where there's an actual war. Yeah. So the Federation's basically losing, and they need to figure out a way to get the Romulans

to join their side in this war, so they stage a false flag attack against the Romulans. Dude, it's crazy. It came out when I was younger. It felt too political. It was a lot of talking. Not enough laser beams and frozen dudes. That's why I'm telling people, man. Its next generation is far more political than Deep Space Nine. Deep Space Nine is because Roddenberry

didn't like interpersonal conflict, and so that's why when you watch TNG, it's this very like sanitized culture that no actual, like anyone who served in the military would ever find anywhere because he didn't allow there to be interpersonal conflict

between characters on the ship because the Federation is this enlightened, progressive culture. You can see it in the way they stand too. Yeah, exactly. And versus, but there's also like children on the ship. Like it makes no sense. I feel strongly that I am not drunk enough to have this conversation. Dude, you. But there's also like children on the ship. It makes no sense. I feel strongly

that I am not drunk enough to have this conversation. And then Deep Space Nine, but Deep Space Nine was the first one that came out after Roddenberry died and so probably wouldn't have allowed it to come to pass. And it's, you know, they're on like the fringes of the Federation and that there's

a wormhole and a war takes place and it's just this like you know, it's this almost emerging of sort of the Star Wars type of plot line, but in the Star Trek universe. Are they able to open and close the wormhole? Can they open and close the wormhole at will? No, it's just open. No, it's just open. That's the first episode.

Are they on the other side of the wormhole too? Like they have another outpost over there? Well, that's part of the show. Yeah. But basically a powerful alien race from a different quadrant is able to gain access Are they on the other side of the wormhole too? Like they have another outpost over there? Well, that's part of the show. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But basically a powerful alien race from a different quadrant is able to gain access and it's more powerful than basically all of the typical Star Trek races you're familiar with. So the Federation losing, they have a conversation where like if the Romulans, who are longtime enemies of the Federation, would join the Federation

and the Klingons in the war, they could win. And so the Romulans are like, no, we're going to team up with the Dominion. They're going to offer us favorable deals, conquer you guys. And then they have this conversation where they're like,

you think that once they conquer us, they're going to let you, they're going to spare you? And they're like, we'll see. So the Federation stages a false flag attack, killing a romulan senator blaming it on the dominion to force them to enter the war on their side yeah bro talk about good tv like this if you're into the stuff we talk about you will want to watch star trek

the next generation at least and deep space i think the first one was great it was a little campy i mean it's very campy by today's standards but powerful like like leonard nimoy and and you know shat just just seeing like if you have questions my god if you have questions about false flags and like what governments and militaries do they've they wrote a script exploring these ideas in a great war and why even you're supposed to like the federation they're the good guys that being said that being said while said, while we're on this subject, I didn't plan to talk about any of this tonight, but when people ask me Star Wars or Star Trek, I always say that the correct answer is clearly Battlestar Galactica. I thought it was good.

It was only one season, right? I mean, the new one, Battlestar. Did it go on for multiple seasons? No, it's four. It just felt like the same season that went on too long. No, definitely four seasons. Battlestar is fantastic. It started off good and then kind of –

It's better than both of them. Really? We're going to go to – no. We're going to go to member segment. We've already gone to Super Chats. We're going to go to that member segment.
