Ladies and gentlemen, earlier, just a few hours ago, there was a massive cyber attack on Twitter.
Several high profile accounts, including former President Barack Obama,
former Vice President Joe Biden, current presidential contender, Elon Musk, Uber,
Apple, were all hacked and started tweeting something about some, you know, come and get
Bitcoin or something. Send us Bitcoin. We'll send you Bitcoin back. This is one of the biggest
cyber attacks we've seen because these are particularly powerful accounts.
This has the potential to completely disrupt the planet.
This is how absolutely insane things are right now.
I cannot tweet.
So Adam, in my absence, has declared himself to be the warlord of Twitter.
That is correct.
He has.
Thank you for announcing me.
Subject?
Yes, absolutely.
My liege. He's not on Twitter. That's right. I can't tweet. So if you if you blue checkmark verified Twitter
accounts can't tweet right now. Now, a lot of these journalists are just going with the narrative of
wow, a Bitcoin scam. This, in my opinion, is not a Bitcoin scam. And I'm not going to pretend like I know all of
the secrets of the universe, but based on my general understanding of past hacking events of
Twitter, cybersecurity, national security, this seems to be a sophisticated, serious attack against
the United States. But this was a shot across the bow. This was them letting us know, we own you. In 2013,
hackers took over the Associated Press on Twitter and tweeted out a message about Obama being
injured. This resulted in a $136 billion stock drop-off. One of the fastest transfers of wealth,
one of the largest and fastest transfers of wealth in history, took place in the span of less than 10 minutes. That's how insane these attacks are. For them to
show us now, seven years later, that they can take Obama, Biden, Elon Musk, this is very,
very serious. So we've got some big updates. We're going to talk a lot about this. I'm going
to show you some of the context from the past. But it seems like there are a lot of people
pointing out this is, it looks like a warning
shot for now, or not even a warning.
You know, this is meant to instill fear.
I mean, it makes total sense.
I was reading the executive order that President Trump did yesterday.
On China.
About Hong Kong and China.
And the more I read it, I was, my jaw dropped.
I was like, wow.
I mean, I ran in here.
I'm like, dude, you got to read this.
And then a couple hours later, Twitter gets hit.
And it's like, okay, that makes sense.
They're probably worried because of this executive order.
We'll talk about it.
Look, we don't know who's doing what.
It very well may be just some stupid Bitcoin scam.
Twitter locked down every verified account.
This, as far as I know, is unprecedented.
Now, there's a lot of people posting silly memes, and they're quite funny,
and we've been laughing a whole lot. But the seriousness of the situation, to be fair,
it's like, you know, we can have a laugh, but this is, man, I don't know. This is crazy. This
is crazy, crazy, crazy. Yes, it is.
If they took Obama's account and then made some claim about Trump's health, if they used Elon Musk to make claims about Tesla and stock, they could manipulate, destroy, and disrupt our economy like that.
So now there are calls to nationalize Twitter.
We're going to get into all of this stuff.
I'm going to show you Twitter stock is taking a hit from this.
But make sure as you're joining right now, you smash the like button.
That's right, you better smash it.
I am your warlord.
And you will smash the button
or else nothing will happen.
But that's okay.
There's also, listen, listen.
Another YouTube channel
that had been doing a live stream about this
was taken down and issued a guideline strike.
Really? So, yes. Yeah. We don't I don't know what they were saying or why or whatever,
but YouTube may see it within their glorious and divine purview to remove us from this conversation.
Just so you all watching know that's a possibility. And it could be because let's be real. This is
serious disruption right now. Every single politician who has grown accustomed to communicating
with their constituents and this country through Twitter is unable to communicate.
And they've long since given up the water cooler, the town halls, the churches. They use Twitter.
It's where people go to put out their messages.
This is the serious danger of having these unregulated private companies with this much
power. And now we're seeing people say, are we going to keep playing this game?
Are we going to keep saying, oh, it's a private company, can do it at once?
If Barack Obama tweeted something out, and I could think off the top of my head a couple
things I'm not going to say, you would see people in the streets, writing, destroying things, burning buildings to the
ground that easily, especially considering what's going on with COVID, what's going on with the
economy, what's going on with all the riots. This right now is not just some Bitcoin scam.
This is way serious. Now there's another, Josh Hawley, the Senator sent a letter to Twitter,
acknowledging some of these counts had two factor authorization, meaning this is not a phishing scam.
I'm seeing people say it looks like just a Bitcoin phishing scam.
You think Joe Biden right now, presidential candidate wouldn't have their secrets?
It's not even about two way.
No, no, no.
You think authentic?
Yeah.
Well, beyond that.
Right.
All right.
Well, beyond that.
How did look? this is scary. If Joe Biden is running for the president right now and he's the presumed nominee and all that stuff, and they did not secure the servers,
the accounts for Joe Biden and Trump, we got serious security problems in this country.
I mean, once you're president, you're president for life. That's the way it works. So Obama is technically still, he's always going to be President Obama
for the rest of his life. And, and, and this is, man, let's, I'll, I'll say the speculation for
now. Let's actually read the story. So if you're just tuning in, hit the like button, subscribe,
notification bell, you can get in your super, uh, you can get in your super chats. Uh, I sincerely
do ask that if you really do like the show,
you do subscribe and hit the notification bell,
because that does tell YouTube
to boost us in the algorithm, basically.
Smash that like button.
Smash it.
Just engage with the content if you like it. That's all you gotta do.
I declare. I do declare.
I don't know if I'm allowed to mention the algorithm stuff, by the way.
Well, I declare they smash the like button.
That's my first decree
as warlord of Twitter. You're basically telling YouTube you like us. All right, let's read this
first story we got from Business Insider. They say, some of the world's biggest Twitter accounts
are hacked. Here's what we do and don't know about what's going on right now. Elon Musk wants
to give you free Bitcoin, at least. That's what his Twitter account says. Don't trust him.
The Tesla account is one of numerous high profile accounts on the social network that
have been compromised as part of a remarkable far reaching hack in an attempt to scam people
using digital currency Bitcoin.
This is speculation and they should not be saying it.
They don't know what this is.
They can mention the tweets did this.
And I think last time I checked, it was like
$100,000. They had apparently like had raised their address. As of writing on Wednesday,
there's still a whole lot of unknowns. But here's what we do and don't know so far.
Tons of people and companies have been hacked. Biden, Bezos, Apple's official account,
Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Kanye West, Kim Kardashian,
Uber, Wiz Khalifa, Floyd Mayweather, Cash App, Mr. Beast, XXXTentacion, parody account,
the tweet of God.
The list goes on and on.
The only common thread between the accounts appears to be that they are all well, very
famous.
The hackers appear to be targeting high profile accounts that will spread the scam as far
as possible.
I love the speculation as far as possible.
I love the speculation.
I love it.
They don't know what this is.
Yeah, they have no idea.
But sure enough, you know, Mike Cernovich tweeted this.
The Bitcoin angle is for dumb dumb journalists who are too stupid to know what's happening around them.
I agree.
Look at that.
You do one Google search as to what happened in 2013 with the AP and you know targeting
Obama is not about getting Bitcoin.
Not at all.
No. How did they get hacked?
That's not clear. There have been incidents in the past in which third-party social media management apps got hacked and users of that app were compromised. It means hackers can gain access
to their accounts even though Twitter itself wasn't breached. It's not clear what's going on
in this case, but the unprecedented scale of the hack does raise the possibility that Twitter's
systems may have been
breached in some way. Another way this hack is unusual is the duration of it. Some of the accounts
have been compromised for well over an hour with repeated reposting the scam message after they got
deleted, presumably by Twitter. In previous hacks, Twitter has been able to lock down high profile
accounts rapidly until the account owner could regain control. It's not clear why this hasn't
happened here, but I can tell you this. Twitter has completely lost control of their system.
Yeah, it seems like entirely. They can't even stop. So that's why they froze every single
blue check account. Yeah, wow. We are we are in, you know, this is Wild West territory, man. Check
this out. This is what Obama tweeted. He said, I am giving back to my community due to covid.
All Bitcoin sent to my address below
will be sent back doubled. If you send a thousand, I'll send back two. Only doing this for the next
30 minutes. Enjoy. Just sent out $40,000. Clearly not real. Twitter is saying nothing.
In a fairly unenlightening statement via tweet, Twitter's security team confirmed
there were shenanigans happening and that it was looking into it. We are aware of a security
incident impacting accounts on Twitter. We are investigating and taking steps to fix it. We will update
everyone shortly. What's Twitter doing to stop it? Twitter appeared to have prevented all verified
accounts from tweeting in an attempt to crack down on the scam messages. The company hasn't
publicly said it's doing this, but this reporter and others are currently unable to tweet.
As of writing, some verified users are able to tweet again, but others cannot. I still can't. Some people can. I think you can't tweet, Lydia.
I am able to now. You can't. Yeah. At the last minute.
Why, if this was a Bitcoin scam, would Twitter be unable to stop the tweets?
Right. It's not a Bitcoin scam, man. That is speculative. That is speculative. This is way
more sophisticated than that. They say the scam is generally, they're posting a tweet saying, you know, send us Bitcoin. Should I send them Bitcoin?
No. Who's behind the hack? We don't know. I want to show you some tweets here that we have pulled
up so far. Mike Cernovich making some good points. He says, if this hack were about Bitcoin,
if this hack were about Bitcoin, there are thousands of ways to make more money.
Phishing links to make it look like Coinbase or Square.
Link to websites to steal personal information. And credit, this ain't about some Bitcoin crumbs.
He then said, we regret to, a quote, we regret to inform you that Elon Musk has passed away,
style press release from the Musk family, along with a short of Tesla stock, would have earned far more money than a Bitcoin scam. Don't fall for the Bitcoin angle. That's a distraction.
This is a state level attack. He then said said the Bitcoin angle is for our dumb, dumb reporters
who don't understand that a true hack like this wouldn't be to get a few crumbs of crypto.
A country wanted to send a message. We own your butts. They succeeded. In response,
Twitter stock has taken a small hit, though their stock is still generally up, but it did go down in after hours. I want to show you this story from April 23rd, 2013,
so you can understand the severity of what this is and why after I, this goes down,
and I run up to Adam like, yo, Adam, I think we're facing a major cyber attack.
What was the first thing you said? I declared myself warlord.
No, no, no. What's the first thing you said in the news sense?
Oh, because of the executive order yesterday.
Donald Trump basically said in this executive order,
if you are associated with China in any way
and are giving aid to them as they repress Hong Kong,
we will take everything.
Yep.
This executive order was, I'm surprised it wasn't bigger news.
I was reading it this morning.
A friend of mine sent it to me like, dude, you need to read this.
And I was just reading it.
I ran in here.
I'm like, dude, you have to read this.
It's incredible.
And then this happened.
It's like, it makes total sense.
It's a counterattack.
It basically says that if you in any way provide aid to people associated with the Chinese government who are
in any way repressing the rights of Hong Kong, we will take your assets. We'll, you know,
seize things. You can't travel. And considering the amount of property and resources Chinese
officials have been buying in this country and organizations, I mean, this is far reaching.
Yeah, it is.
But let's go back in time real quick. Check this out. Syrian hackers claim AP hack that tipped stock
market by $136 billion. Is it terrorism? Look at this. You can see on the screen, this blip
right there where the whole market just dropped and bounced back up. What you are seeing in that
is a sophisticated cyber attack. But not only that, it was the destruction of the lives of so
many innocent people who didn't know it was
about to happen. And all of a sudden, these retirement accounts, these day traders had
these automated sell-offs occur because the price dropped so rapidly. And then other people who had
automatic, you know, buy, I don't know what the stock terminology is called, but automatically
wanted to buy, gained all those assets and the price skyrocketed back up. You lost all your assets like that. They say at 1 0 7 PM on Tuesday,
this is April 23rd, 2013, when the official Twitter account for the Associated Press sent
a tweet to its nearly 2 million followers that warned, I'm not going to read what they said,
but they basically said that a catastrophic event had occurred and Obama was hurt.
Some of the people who momentarily panicked were apparently on or near the trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange. At 108, the Dow began a perilous but
short-lived nosedive. It dropped about 150 points from 14,697 to 14,548 before stabilizing at 110
p.m. When news of the tweet had been erroneous began to spread by 1.13, the level had returned
to 14.690. During those three minutes, the fake tweet erased $136 billion in equity market value.
Just two and a half weeks ago, Bloomberg LP announced that it would begin adding a small
number of Twitter accounts to its financial information terminals, which are ubiquitous
in Wall Street's financial offices. The idea, ironically enough, was to combat misinformation spread on Twitter. In August,
false information spread on Twitter suggesting that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had been
killed, sending crude oil prices spiking. The market appears to have recovered from the AP
Twitter hack, which was both juvenile and easily fixed. The AP got word out quickly that the tweet
was the result of a hack and Twitter shut down the compromised account.
Now you can see the true power, the absolutely true power of Twitter.
And that was one account?
One tweet.
One tweet.
One tweet had that effect.
And Twitter was able to go in and go, delete.
Yeah.
They can't do it now.
Twitter is panicking.
A dumpster fire does not describe the level of chaos that is inside of Twitter right now.
They are probably sweating bullets.
That's probably an understatement.
If they're unable to remove these accounts, the degree to which they've been compromised is incredible.
And if they can do $136 billion in damage with one tweet and then Jack was able to reverse it, imagine how much
damage they could do to our economy with a tweet from former President Obama, current presidential
candidate, Democratic frontrunner Joe Biden, Elon Musk, Bezos. What do you think would happen
if, say, Joe Biden tweeted out something, you know, we're shocked to inform you.
The president has suffered a massive cardiac arrest or something like that.
And then Barack Obama tweets out, you know, we're really sorry to hear this.
We've had our differences. But the president, then you hear all of a sudden Elon Musk tweeting the same thing,
something similar.
But they're all unique tweets.
Right.
Everybody would be screaming.
Yeah.
And believe it.
The markets would panic.
People would be running out their door, running to every store to buy everything off the shelves. It would be absolute chaos.
Riots would break out. Yep. Because you'd see all of these different high profile accounts
basically confirming some catastrophic event. And Twitter can't take it down.
This was a shot across the bow, man. Yeah. This was them saying, we own you. Yep. Back off.
Yeah. Because of that executive order is basically Trump going, I'm sick of it.
I'm done.
I'm done with it.
We're now doing something about it.
And then this happens the very next day.
No, no, no.
It's not a coincidence.
I mean, if you read the wordings.
Yeah, we'll talk about it.
I've got it pulled up.
But first, I want to show you this from Chris Liu.
He is the former Obama White House cabinet secretary.
And he said, as the Twitter accounts of prominent people slash companies are hacked,
let's take note of how troubling it is for a president to announce policy decisions,
including military threats on a platform susceptible to intrusions.
We are one hack away from a major international incident.
It's true.
It already happened in 2013.
It already happened. Those
stocks didn't just impact America. It impacted everyone around the world. I mean, there are
foreign traders there that, you know, they're those, the markets are, are, are connected to
each other in various ways that, that damage probably rippled out across the world. Yep.
So he's technically right, but we've already been there. Well, and then we got the DNC calling for every single person in their in their employee to delete TikTok.
The whole the whole delete TikTok thing.
And it's like, OK, well, it's becoming very, very obvious.
TikTok is a phishing app.
Going to send your data to China.
Exactly.
Now they deny that.
Of course they do.
Of course we're not doing that.
We're not owned by China, but they they have ties to, you know, some of the highest ranking officials
in the company. Right. I think it's called ByteDance. Yeah. I don't know the full details.
Yeah. Well, any company that is based in China, the government can just go in and take,
okay, this company is ours now. Period. Done. What are you going to do about it?
Well, so this is the executive order. order. It came out just the other day. The president's executive order on Hong Kong normalization.
By the authority vested in me as president by the Constitution and laws of the United States
of America, including the United States Hong Kong Policy Act of 1992, the Hong Kong Human Rights and
Democracy Act of 2019, the Hong Kong Autonomy act of 2020 signed into law july 14th 2020
the international emergency economic powers act the national emergencies act the uh what
oh the national emergencies act section of the immigrant immigration and nationality act of 1952
and section 301 of title 3 united states code i don't know trump hereby enact yada yada so the
well there's a lot.
I'm going to read his opening statement because it's not very long, but it's going to give you
the important context. Yeah. He writes, I, Donald Trump, president of the United States of America,
determined pursuant to section 202 of the United States Hong Kong policy act of 1992,
that the special administrative region of Hong Kong is no longer sufficiently autonomous
to justify differential treatment in relations to
the People's Republic of China under the particular United States laws and provisions
thereof set out in this order. In late May 2020, the National People's Congress of China announced
its intention to unilaterally and arbitrarily impose national security legislation on Hong Kong.
This announcement was merely China's latest salvo in a series of actions that have increasingly denied autonomy and freedoms that China promised to the people
of Hong Kong under the 1984 Joint Declaration of Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain
and Northern Ireland and the government of the People's Republic of China on the question of
Hong Kong. As a result, on May 27, 2020, the Secretary of State announced that the PRC had
fundamentally undermined Hong Kong's autonomy and certified and reported to the Congress pursuant result, on May 27, 2020, the Secretary of State announced that the PRC had fundamentally
undermined Hong Kong's autonomy and certified and reported to the Congress pursuant to sections 205
and 301 of the United States-Hong Kong Policy Act of 1992, as amended, respectively, that Hong Kong
no longer warrants treatment under United States law in the same manner as United States laws were
applied to Hong Kong before July 1, 1997 1997. On May 29th, 2020,
I directed the heads of executive departments and agencies to begin the process of eliminating
policy exemptions under United States law that give Hong Kong differential treatment
in relation to China. He goes on to say, China has since followed through on its threat to impose
national security legislation. They explain, you know, there's no right to trial by jury.
Proceedings may be conducted in secret. China has given itself broad power to initiate and control the prosecutions of
people of Hong Kong through the new Office of Safeguarding National Security. At the same time,
the laws allow foreigners to be expelled if China merely suspects them of violating the law,
potentially making it harder for journalists, human rights organizations, and other outside
groups to hold the PRC accountable for its
treatment of the people of Hong Kong. I therefore determine that the situation with respect to Hong
Kong, including recent actions taken by the PRC to fundamentally undermine Hong Kong's autonomy,
constitutes an unusual and extraordinary threat, which has its source in substantial part outside
the US to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States. I hereby declare a national emergency with respect to that threat.
Now, the important section, because I can't read through everything, is section four,
all property and interests in property that are in the United States, that hereafter come within
the United States, or that are or hereafter come within the possession or control of any United States
person or the following persons are blocked and may not be transferred, paid, exported,
withdrawn or otherwise dealt in. That means an American citizen who has, say, assets and maybe
tick tock. That means that these companies Trump's going to be like blocked. Assets gone.
I mean, this is extreme. This is serious. Yes yes whether it's the right thing sorry if that was loud but whether it's needed to happen
this is important right here this is serious that's why i read that and i was like oh if you're
working for china you're you're in trouble and this means period. This means these these professors. Yep. Exactly. Means agencies that do student visas.
Yep.
This is just cut off basically everything.
And this was yesterday.
So the implications of today Twitter being cyber cyber a major major cyber against a
former president and the current president a contender for the president.
Exactly.
Serious man. I think it's a contender for the president. Exactly.
Serious, man.
I think it's, I think it's war, man.
Yep.
And, and, you know, I've talked about it too.
I've done several segments that we're on the brink of war with China that we've had, you know, they've lasered our planes.
You know, that's basically like letting them know that we can target you.
They've sent, you know, their, their strike group through the South China Sea.
They're trying to take over some Indian land.
They're fighting with India.
There's reports of them taking land from almost every neighboring country around them.
Yeah.
You got the concentration camps.
Yep.
I saw a video today of them moving a lot of them.
It was a terrible video.
I got to say it.
China is
our generation's Nazi Germany.
Not an exaggeration in the least bit. They're expanding.
They're seizing land they say
is historically theirs.
They're locking people in concentration
camps, harvesting their organs
to be sold.
They've stolen our manufacturing base. They control
too much of what we need.
And now, they're going to start repressing Hong Kong.
And this is...
Or they have been.
They literally are doing it.
Yeah.
The people of Hong Kong are used to, you know, like English common law as a former British,
I believe it was a colony of the UK, of Britain.
And it's being transferred to China.
And now they're starting to suppress their rights.
Yep.
People have been asking,
what are we going to do? Are we going to do something? Well, the law gives Trump the power
to do so. Check this out. He says, what does it say? Or the following persons, any foreign person
determined by the secretary of state in consultation with the secretary of treasury or the secretary
of the treasury in consultation with the secretary of state to be or have been involved directly or
indirectly.
Look at that.
Yep.
In the coercing, arresting, detaining or imprisoning of individual individuals under the authority
of or to be or have been responsible for or involved in developing, adopting, implementing
the law of the People's Republic of China on safeguarding national security in the Hong
Kong administrative region.
Excuse me.
To be responsible for or
complicit in or to have engaged in directly or indirectly any of the following actions or
policies that undermine democratic processes or institutions in Hong Kong, actions or policies
that threaten the peace, security, stability, or autonomy of Hong Kong, censorship or other
activities with respect to Hong Kong that prohibit, prohibit, limit, or penalize the exercise of
freedom of expression or assembly by citizens of Hong Kong, or that limit access to
free and independent print, online or broadcast media, or the extrajudicial rendition, arbitrary
detention or torture of any person in Hong Kong or other gross violations of internationally
recognized human rights or serious human rights abuses in Hong Kong to be or have been the leader
of he goes on. But I want to point this out indirectly. Yeah, indirectly. China is communist.
Yep. They use market economics to their advantage to grow. But Chinese officials are, you know,
at every level of these companies, these purchases, the investments, these foreign maneuvers. That's TikTok. He's talking about TikTok. That's an indirect attack that they're
stealing American data indirectly. China has access to that. If it's a Chinese company,
they have access to it. It's not about America, it's about Hong Kong. It's about whether or not
you're indirectly in some way hurting Hong Kong. I'm sure if they were doing it to America,
it's already enough for Trump to take some of these actions.
Good point.
Good point.
So to have materially assisted, sponsored, provided financial,
material, or technological support for.
There it is.
If a Chinese official uses TikTok.
Yep.
That's it.
This is extremely broad.
This gives Trump insane power against the u.s government
he says section 5 i hereby determine that the making of donations of the types of articles
specified in section 203 by two or for the benefit of any person whose property and interests in
property are blocked pursuant to section 4 of this order would seriously impair my ability to
deal with the national emergency declared in this order and i hereby prohibit such donations as provided by section four of this order even
more broad wow you can't give money nope to somebody who maybe is indirectly providing
technological support to somebody this is wow this is seven degrees of separation almost so
is it a coincidence then that's we see this major cyber attack in the U.S.?
Not at all.
It's the first thing that popped in my head.
Like, yep, the executive order.
Now you're telling me Twitter just got slammed.
It's like, yeah, that makes total sense.
Let me know if you see blue checks coming back on Twitter.
I will keep an eye on it.
Because this has been going on for a long time.
Yeah, it's been a few hours now.
It's been a few hours.
We can't tweet.
I'm going to start a garden.
A Taz garden?
Whoa, Taz.
Oh, gosh.
Sorry.
You're out.
Okay.
Get out.
Get out of the zone.
I'm out.
You mean sign off Twitter.
No, I can't.
I have to check.
The Twitter zone.
The Twitter zone.
Yeah, yeah.
But yeah, we're going to start a Taz garden.
No blue checks.
It's going to be digital.
I don't see anything.
A digital garden, if you will. Yes. We're going to grow digital roses that we're going to start a Taz garden. No blue checks. It's going to be digital. I don't see anything. A digital garden, if you will.
Yes.
We're going to grow digital roses that we're going to smell.
They're going to smell great.
The best?
Yes.
The best digital roses you've ever smelled.
Frankly.
I've never actually smelled a digital rose.
I'm pretty sure they don't have a smell, Adam, but you're the boss.
Oh, that's good.
Yeah.
So are you checking to see if
you can uh i don't see anything i got sent something from a high profile individual talking
about a leaked admin control panel but i don't know if it's real so i'm just trying to i'd be
very careful about right being sent anything on twitter right now yeah yeah so right now i'm
hearing that it's not just blue check marks like we heard with with uh with you lydia you couldn't
tweet i can tweet for a while.
A bunch of people were blocked out as well.
I don't know how they did it,
what their decision was.
But maybe it's time to nationalize Twitter.
Yeah, maybe.
So Will Chamberlain of Human Events
has been, I don't want to say
he's a proponent of nationalizing,
but he's saying it now.
But he has been a proponent
of social media access being a human right.
And I think, you know what I want to do?
I want to pull up, I believe, Josh Hawley's letter.
Yes.
Josh Hawley has been talking about issues of social media, free speech, and censorship.
And has, according to Saurabh Sharma, ramblings in the Daily Caller.
Now, I got to tell you, nobody's verified.
Right. I don't know anybody is. That's a good point.
We're going to have to rely on. But I've seen this going around and it looks legit.
He says inbox Senator Hawley M.O. just sent this letter to Twitter CEO Jack per the security
breaches today. The letter reads, Dear Mr. Dorsey, as I write, Twitter seems to be experiencing a
large scale cyber attack, as illustrated by a number of posts inviting users to transfer Bitcoin under
fraudulent pretenses.
The accounts targeted include those for Apple, Uber, Jeff Bezos, former President Barack
Obama, and even the Democratic nominee for president.
The list of affected accounts is growing by the minute.
Some affected accounts are alleged to have been protected by Twitter's two-factor authentication. That is crazy. Yeah, it is. Yeah, Washington Post
verifies that Hawley sent this. Okay. Yeah. He says, I am concerned that this event may represent
not merely a coordinated set of separate hacking incidents, but rather a successful attack on the
security of Twitter itself. As you know, millions of your users rely on your service, not just to tweet
publicly, but also to communicate privately through your direct message service. A successful
attack on your system servers represents a threat to all of your users' privacy and data security.
Please reach out immediately to the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation
and take any necessary measures to secure this site before this breach expands. Once you have
attended to immediate concerns, please respond to the following questions.
Did this event represent a breach of users' account security or of Twitter's systems?
Were accounts protected by two-factor authentication successfully targeted in
this breach? If so, how is this possible? Did this breach compromise the account security of users
whose accounts were not used to
share fraudulent posts? If so, how many accounts were affected? Were all account security compromised
by this breach? How many users may have faced data theft as a consequence of this breach?
What measures does Twitter undertake to prevent system level hacks from breaching the security
of its entire user base? Did this attack threaten the security of the president's own Twitter account? Sincerely, Josh Hawley. I want to know the answers.
Me too. Yeah, we need to know.
How did they bypass two-factor? I know several ways. Now, listen, my immediate reaction when
I saw this was state-level attack, cyber war and all that stuff. Because I know people,
and I've known a lot of people and I've interviewed several people
who could snap their fingers and pull off things like this. This seems like a sophisticated
intelligence agency attack. The fact that we're still under this lockdown and Twitter can't get
a hold of things. I can't stress enough how absolutely insane that is. It is. It sounds
like Jack Dorsey himself has been locked out of his own company. Yep. Oh my gosh. What do you do?
Shut it down.
They did.
You know, they've shut it down to the extent they can.
But what would happen if these hackers literally, over time, removed the administrator's ability?
Think about it.
When you're developing Twitter.
That's a good point.
You can put all these codes in place. What would happen if a state-level actor over the span of a year was writing code and adding it to their code base so that they could have a kill switch?
Yeah.
That they press the button and then every single employee of Twitter was locked out and Twitter is now controlled completely.
Wow.
True autonomous zone.
How would they deal with that?
I'm talking like state-level serious.
You got that button. Wow. How dare dare you but it's all i have now i'm gonna see
what uh so i i was able to inadvertent i was able to bypass the restrictions this is this is huge
i allowed it to happen will will will came to me and he said at warlord adam is this okay that i pass this on and i said yes it's okay you can post it
i am verified on twitter i tried to tweet and it wouldn't let me and this is what it said so i
asked will chamberlain of human events to tweet it because will chamespear the editor-in-chief
of human events uh can't he's not verified and he said hey tim cast wants me to tweet something
and i'm saying let me in let me in but this is said hey tim cast wants me to tweet something and i'm saying
let me in let me in but this is what i see when i try and tweet something went wrong but don't
fret let's give it another shot no let's not it didn't work so will ever so humorously changed
his name from chamberlain to chames fear doing this a lot because he's declaring the proletariat
twitter unverified revolution and that's basically what's going on on Twitter right now, for those who are not familiar.
All of the unverified people are laughing.
Blue checks is trending.
Blue checks is trending.
Hacks is trending.
And lots of memes.
So many memes.
So I want to see if...
Let me see.
Kevin Roos is retweeted by Will Chamberlain.
If whoever apparently has read right access to every verified Twitter account also has access to those accounts DMs, this could make the Sony hack look tiny.
Oh, I remember that.
Could you imagine what would happen if the direct messages of journalists got released?
I mean, they obviously have access to it. They have access to Barack Obama's direct messages.
They might have been downloading everything
Joe Biden's direct messages
and it's too late
they already had it
if they were tweeting out they could see it
and they were probably
the fallout is going to be insane on this
maybe it's not so much a shot across the bow
as a you know it's
Captain Jack riding away on the interceptor
waving goodbye
this fake
bitcoin thing was them saying we exfiltrated your data yeah have a nice day yeah we got what we
needed and then what do they keep talking about bitcoin and they scuttled the ship on the way out
yep so now jack's like what happened how do we fix this we don't know yep and you can't they got the
information no no i mean jack can't even gain control of Twitter. I say Jack, but like people
at Twitter right now, they've, there's no control. They can't, they can't stop these hacks. They
can't, blue checks are shut down completely. Wow. You know, the scene I'm talking about in Pirates
of the Caribbean. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm gonna explain this. The first movie, right? The first
one. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So Jack and, and Will, the two characters want to steal this ship,
but you can't crew a ship with only two people. So he goes on to, I forget which ship, it's, you know, and the Dauntless, I think.
And then he starts trying to pull the sails down and the, you know, Royal Guards see him
and they laugh. So they take the Interceptor, which they have used a whole crew to set everything up,
come over to board that ship and get him off. And then he jumps to their ship and takes off with it. And then he turns on and waves goodbye. And when they try to catch him,
their ship has been scuttled. The rudder chain's been broken. So maybe that's what it is.
They got in, they got the data, and then they busted it up and then said,
Bitcoin, Bitcoin, Bitcoin. So that everyone would know they did it. But more importantly, national security, Trump, the feds, the DOJ are right now going, what did they get?
Yep, what did they get?
And Jack Dorsey is probably sweating bullets.
I would be if I was in his seat.
Could you imagine?
But I'm not.
I'm sitting on my new Twitter throne.
What do you think would happen if all of the DMs of every blue check journalist just got dropped?
Oh, my.
I'd get my reading glasses on.
There would be a civil war in two seconds.
I would.
Two seconds.
You know, I made my throne out of blue checks, too.
Blue checks?
You seized them from the corpses.
I took them all and just made a big throne out of it.
Putting blue checks in the guillotine.
That's great.
Nice.
No, but I'm not kidding.
I mean, there are stories, right?
Covington, for instance.
Imagine when you get access to the DMs of these journalists who are lying,
and you find out some of them lied on purpose.
Yeah.
And who's telling them to lie.
Yep.
And, yeah, the real truth of everything.
And what's coming.
Yeah.
I want to read them all.
Yeah, I want to know what's coming.
I can't wait almost.
The United States, the U.S. would be ripped apart in two seconds.
It's true.
Now, to be fair.
It is quite frightening.
I think that actually might, that might strengthen the U.S. in a dangerous way.
How so?
If we saw that the entire news industry was corrupt and these people behind the scenes
were lying on purpose, then they would be completely disregarded.
The entire argument of the left would be gone.
And Trump would be saying, I told you they were fake news. Yep. And then what would happen? Trump loyalists, the military, everybody would
say whatever you say, Trump, because we can't trust those people. Just totally destroy whatever
credibility they had. You're going to see conversations between Antifa, far leftists,
violent, you know, criminals and terrorists and journalists laughing together. You're going to
see conversations because I know these exist where journalist is jokingly talking to somebody about grabbing a drink
and then them saying, hey, I got a big story.
Check it out.
This guy did this thing.
Cool, cool.
Yeah, feed me all that stuff.
Yeah.
You're going to see journalists saying anything I can amplify.
You got any actions coming up that I can publish so that people show up?
Or let's spread this specific story so no one knows about the real workings
of what's happening over here.
Let's just blow this story out of proportion.
Ivanka held up a Goya can.
Oh my gosh, let's spread it everywhere.
Meanwhile, everything is happening.
I'm talking about sources, though.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, definitely.
The journalists talking to themselves,
that'll be interesting stuff.
You're going to see them being like,
which story are you covering? If it was the activists, stuff. You're going to see them being like, which story are you covering?
If it was the activists, though, you're going to see journalists being like, keep up the good work, guys.
That was really great.
And they're going to be like, did you see that we bashed that guy's head?
And ha ha, yeah, I did.
You're going to see that from journalists.
Probably.
Dude, I've been privy to some of the conversations these people have.
And I'll tell you, some of the stuff I won't bring up because it will compromise sources and ongoing news and investigations, but you'd be surprised what
the far left, what these activists do, how far they're willing to go and how nasty they can be,
who they're communicating with. I got to be very vague on this, but there are certain individuals
who, nah, I can't, I can't, I can can't i don't want to compromise an ongoing investigation
because there could be some big stories and the stuff that i know but just put this way there's
some evil evil people it looks like the blue checks are back blue checks are back no it looks
like uh i ted cruz is posting oh yeah everyone's back thomas massey's back okay yeah everyone's
returned seems seems like so it's the nature's healing it's opened up a little bit is there as
are there any updates are we seeing anything from like to ted cruz address it or is anything no he just did uh these look like old
tweets jumping up i mean it's from 40 seconds ago okay so it looks like maybe they were backlogged
i don't know were they backlogged i don't know so i'm trying to okay dave says dave rubin says
hello hello dave yashar says welcome back The tweets I tried putting out aren't out, so. Okay.
I refuse to relinquish control.
Okay.
Understandable.
Nope, not happening.
Sorry.
Sorry, Twitter.
Everyone's back. Well, the garden will be assembled.
That's right.
I need those roses.
Well, the good news is that it wasn't until the Chazistanis showed up to Mayor Durkin's
house.
Oh, right.
That she actually shut him down.
So I think you'll be okay so long as you don't actually tweet
at Jack. As soon as I told him I made
a throne out of blue checks, they were like
whoa, whoa, whoa, too far.
No, no, no, just don't tweet at Jack.
Tweet at Jack and then he's like, send him in.
Send him to the feds.
So,
civil war or war with China?
Yeah, man.
It's gotta be China. We've been talking about this for months.
Both.
Right.
Months now.
So I think, which one of you said it?
You were like, so does this replace the civil war then?
Yeah, I was like, is this world war or civil war?
Which would it be?
And we did talk about this before on this show that the only thing that would probably
stop a civil war is a common enemy, a common threat.
China.
Yep.
Yeah.
And then people would be like, overnight, I don't care about whatever that was.
Yep.
Because.
COVID what?
Yeah, exactly.
China, China's operating concentration camps, man.
What do we do?
I know it's messed up.
How are people not freaking out about that?
We can't call, we can't fall victim to any of the classic blunders.
Least of all is never get into a land war in Asia. That's right. Oh, we can't do that. We can't fall victim to any of the classic blunders. Least of all is never get into a
land war in Asia. That's right. Oh, we can't
do that. Wow, you're not kidding.
Except now I'm really taking
it seriously. I don't know what that specifically
references, though, from Princess Bride.
I don't know either.
Seems wise. I don't know.
Yeah, so I guess that's it.
I guess the blue checks are back. That was a really
long cyber attack. How long was that? How long? It was like... Two hours? When did they get hit? No, two and a half hours? Yeah, so I guess that's it. I guess the blue checks are back. That was a really long cyber attack. How long was that?
How long?
It was like two hours.
When did they get hit?
No, two and a half hours.
Yeah, maybe three.
Almost three hours.
Right on.
Holy moly.
Yeah.
I want to know the answers to those questions to Jack.
Who wrote that letter?
Josh Hawley.
Josh Hawley, yeah.
I want to know the answers, Jack.
Do we nationalize
you we we all as americans deserve to know how far we were compromised because we use your service
and it's on you yeah and your employees i think we have no choice right now but we need some kind
of nationalization of twitter so yeah so josh holly is kind of one of my heroes because he's been calling for an audit
an internal audit on twitter since like april well now it seems like they won't have a choice
in the matter anymore yeah so they have to all right like you you have to be audited now like
we need to know what happened that's a real question who you know did someone leak you know
the password the the the the entrance key, the back door?
No, this is more than that, man.
I know, yeah.
But this is not about an audit.
This is about if they're in now, we don't need to audit.
We need hard lockdown.
Agreed.
We've mentioned it.
If someone takes – they did.
They took these accounts.
They could have tweeted something way worse.
You're absolutely right.
The Bitcoin thing, I think, netted $100,000 or something.
Oh, did they?
They got a bunch of money.
That's what people are saying.
Yeah, it reached like $100,000.
That's not...
It doesn't seem like worth it on this kind of a scale.
Cernovich was right.
I think so.
I think it's...
Short sale Tesla.
Yep.
Then have Musk tweet out something about his passing.
And then yeah boom
you're rich yeah he could have done they could have done so much more damage and harder to trace
hey is like but listen listen i mean that's it's sure it sounds like a lot of money but it is not
in the scheme of things they can't use these bitcoins these bitcoins are on a public ledger
they can track where they're going yeah yeah if they did the short sale scam you wouldn't know
who who you know who was shorting tesla that's true Yeah. If they did the short sale scam, you wouldn't know who,
who, you know, who is shorting Tesla. That's true. Was the person who did the hack and that person would make the money and they could spend it. So this was not that. Yep. So right now the
conversation is, do we nationalize Twitter? And there's a lot of reasons for one, it's a complete,
it's, it's 10 steps above section two 30 reform. You'd have first amendment protections if that
were the case. Yep. U SS. Cyber Command and whatever else,
you know, officials come in
and they start reinforcing our communications grid,
our social media technology.
I think it needs to happen.
Could you imagine if, say, in like World War II,
we lost the ability to communicate?
That'd be crazy.
We would have lost.
If we couldn't communicate around the world
and coordinate our attacks.
I've seen lots of documentaries about World War II, about the amount of stuff that they did in that war, and it's incredible.
The communication era, if we didn't have it, who knows how long it would have taken.
And if we would have won at all.
This is what I've been saying for a long time.
It's really scary that these social media companies are slowly replacing the commons we used to have public debates at you
know the town hall meetings right at church at the work water cooler now it's all social media
and you've got private big brother looking over you and guess what while twitter could have been
working on reinforcing its security what what were they instead doing?
Worrying about changing words in their code that were offensive.
And yeah, that was offensive and blocking people that were talking about things they didn't want talked about.
You know, you want to know what I've noticed?
What?
When it comes to this critical race theory, social justice stuff.
What?
How come it's all of their arguments are literally just the bonds
of a functioning society?
That's a good point.
So destroy the family.
Right.
The things they target,
time, schedules,
that's racist, that's whiteness.
Destroy those.
You see that list?
The white culture list?
Yeah, I talked about it.
It's annoying because these things
aren't even white culture.
Yeah, it's not.
It bothers me.
I'm like, you think people in China
don't have time? Right. That you think people in China don't have time?
Right.
That you think people in Japan didn't have schedules for farming?
You think communists don't pay attention to the time of the day,
the time of the month to, you know, plant food to still eat?
I think the degree to which we've been infiltrated is worse than anyone imagines.
I agree with you.
Take a look at this tweet.
Christopher F. Ruffo. Let's see who is this guy. He's the director of Discovery Institute Center on Wealth and Poverty said critical race theory is spreading rapidly
through the federal government. Last week, a whistleblower sent me a trove of documents
about a divisive diversity training at the Treasury Department. What I discovered is
deeply disturbing and an affront to equality. Buckle up. The training is called Difficult Conversations About Race
and calls on white employees at Treasury, Federal Reserve, FDIC, CFPB, and NCUA to pledge allyship
amid the George Floyd tragedy. The goal is explicit, to convert everyone in the federal
government to anti-racism.
He then goes through all these details, which I'm not going to read because I think most people
understand, you know, the claim. They claim the expression we should be more colorblind and
we've made so much progress in the 60s are in fact racist statements. So we get this.
This is in the Federal Reserve, the Treasury, theic cfpb ncua the degree to which this fractured
and demented ideology is spreading throughout our armed forces our corporations and our federal
government is alarming i agree and it's worse than we we realize and what you need to understand is
it's not a question of equality it's not it's not a question of equality. It's not a question of racism. The things that they claim are racist schedules, time.
Being accountable for your actions. Yeah. Did you hear that? I have it sitting here. I can read it.
Oh, here. Being accountable for your actions. Oh, sorry. That just blew me away.
The scientific method, objective method objective rational linear thinking
cause and effect relationships isn't it so working hard working hard to being the key to success
what isn't that so condescending yeah seriously absolutely it's ridiculous like all right i got
it oh yeah all right That's what we wanted.
Sorry about that.
This is what is infecting our federal government at the highest levels.
This is insane.
Our financial institutions.
They say the family structure is white culture that you have internalized.
These are the things they're saying we must get rid of when they say abolish whiteness
or whatever.
And we see journalists.
Let me tell you a story.
Maybe I should.
Should I call these people out? I think so. Are we see journalists. Let me tell you a story. Maybe I should, should I call these
people out? I think so. I'm going to, are we going to get in trouble? I don't want to start. No,
no, no, no. Don't do it. When I worked for fusion, one of the highest ranking individuals had a
Twitter banner that said something like abolish whiteness. Wow. And you have to really look into
that. See what that means. What does that mean? It means no family structure, no husband, no wife in the homemaker.
Children should have their own rooms and be independent.
No scientific method.
History.
They say the history is based on Europe and everything.
Yes, we have history.
Those who forget their history are doomed to repeat it.
Protestant work ethic.
Work ethic is whiteness. Hard work is the key to success. They say that's whiteness must be abolished. Work before play. This is in our federal government. These these
these diversity and inclusion initiatives are a Trojan horse, OK, because we already believe in
these things. We already have laws guaranteeing these things since 1964. Ah, they
said it's racist. We're getting to that point. I wouldn't be surprised if this whole stream gets
taken down for us even talking about this. Look at this. They say religion. These are things they
want to get rid of. Time. Follow rigid time schedules. Time is viewed as a commodity.
Wealth equals worth. Your job is who you are.
Respect authority.
Wow.
Really.
Only white people do that.
And this is a part of what they're teaching in schools.
Apparently, they have units in the military.
And they're trying to convert everyone in the federal government to these things.
Now, I don't necessarily believe, upon reading these things,
that the goal is actually to create a cohesive ideology for which people will follow for any
real means. It looks like they're trying to destroy the bonds of a functioning society.
Time following a schedule. What would happen if no one showed up for meetings on time?
There'd be no meetings. That's correct. Somebody show up at nine and say, where's everybody?
Nobody shows up till 915. You know, 910 comes around. The guy leaves 915. That's correct. Somebody show up at nine and say, where's everybody? Nobody shows up till 9.15.
You know, 9.10 comes around, the guy leaves.
9.15, someone shows up, who cares?
Following a time schedule.
Well, that's whiteness.
We abolished that.
Work ethic.
Hard work equals is the key to success.
Imagine if no one did any hard work and they sat around.
That would be the end of humanity as we know it.
Except there are still many people around the world
who engage in hard work.
That's true.
So if you want to destroy a country,
these are the kind of ideas
you need to instill in their people.
Get them really angry.
Tell them, stop working hard.
Stop following schedules.
Steak and potatoes.
Look at this.
Steak and potatoes.
And this is fake too.
Aesthetics based on European culture.
Steak and potatoes bland is best.
Do you know what the East India Trading Company was all about?
Spices.
Spices?
Yeah, spices.
Wars were literally fought to make food taste good.
Exactly.
This is fake.
So they're trying to, look at this,
A-Sex, man's attractiveness based on economic status, power, and intellect.
These are things that make a society function not just ours was that competition
be number one win at all costs winner slash loser to comedy oh my goodness this is action
orientation master and control nature must always do something about a situation instead of what
what is the opposite of that they're literally telling you about a situation don't do anything
work hard don't follow schedules and if something situation. Don't do anything. Don't work hard. Don't follow schedules.
And if something bad happens, don't do anything.
Don't respect authority.
Don't make any decisions.
Decision making.
Yep.
Decision.
So don't make any decisions.
Wow.
This is insidious.
It is.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
And creeping transformation, destroying the bonds of a
functioning society yeah this is uh every single thing on here is solid it's like what what does
it have to be what does this have to do with being white and what they're going right nothing there's
nothing that has to do with you know being white you know why you know why it really bothers me
what i told this story i pretty sure to you, when I was at the Dakota Access Pipeline protest. And this guy was telling me that time was colonial.
To tell me that my family that came from Korea were unaware of the concept of scheduling a meeting.
Right.
Oh, but that was because white people brought it.
That's not true.
You didn't make up time.
Right.
But these people believe white people invented time schedules.
That is super demeaning.
These people are extremely racist.
Absolutely.
100%.
This is from white supremacists.
That's what it seems like.
When you say that hard work is whiteness.
Yeah, that's ridiculous.
That is white supremacy.
Absolutely.
That is straight out of the mouth of the Klan.
It's crazy.
Yep.
I don't understand how we're here right now.
And what do you think happens when people in our federal government all start adhering to this stuff?
I don't know.
Yeah.
So the bonds have been weakened by people like Alyssa Milano who tweet print money.
Print money.
Yep.
Someone who says print, just print money has no idea what they're talking about with economics at all as we're facing say this major hack you know now that i think things are
getting resolved how easy it would be to disrupt and destroy and we're on the we're on the verge
of a serious international crisis catastrophe world war whatever to call it china's encroaching
in the south china sea they're threatening us they're threatening taiwan they have concentration
camps so in india threatening india i read about i read about them taking over a russian city encroaching in the South China Sea. They're threatening us. They're threatening Taiwan. They have concentration camps. Threatening India?
Threatening India. I read about them
taking over a Russian city.
A Russian city? Yep. What happened with that?
They
claimed they had a...
It was originally Chinese land.
And because of a treaty in like
1910 or something like that,
Russia
got this city and then
over time, and I guess
they said, no, that treaty is null
and void. We're taking it.
How is that not... I wish I had
it pulled up. I don't have it, but
from what I remember, what I read, that's basically
what it is. It's World War II all over again, man.
Concentration camps, the stealing of
land they claim is ancestrally
theirs. Yep.
And now it's a direct confrontation with us.
I wonder why it is that we've known for some time now about the concentration camps,
that they're taking the Uyghur Muslims and harvesting their organs and hair and selling them.
Yep.
And nothing has been done by anybody.
Now, we've done sanctions.
I didn't hear about it until I came here and you told me about it.
You know, it's like no one's talking about that. There's no news. They're more
concerned about whiteness in the federal government. Right.
I feel like this stuff...
You know what that is? That's the Bitcoin
of this Twitter-ness.
Get everyone thinking about this
while everything else is
happening. Look at the Bitcoin. Look at
the Bitcoin while we're undermining
everything. Look at this... There's whiten at the bitcoin while we're undermining everything look
at this there's whiteness racism while they're undermining everything and that is what we need
to pay attention to that racism is not prevalent yes there's racists of course there probably always
will be you know look at nick cannon what he was saying that's racist that doing off the rails he
did but you know what freedom of speech in this country yep you know okay fine say it i think i
think you're an a-hole for saying all that stuff he only got fired from one gig he still has like
a bunch of other hosting jobs nobody cares yeah he said things that i can't repeat i i can't believe
i heard someone say that nowadays and he he's spouting Farrakhan. And it's like I looked into him and he's crazy and scares me that people are actually following the ideology.
Look, man, if I were to be conspiratorial right now, it seems like China has been trying to – you know how you want to do the dishes, right?
You can't just go in and wash the dish.
You got to soak the dishes.
You got to soak them because all that cheese is all stuck to the bottom
and you're like I can't get out
you try to take a knife and you're scraping it but now you're just ruining the pan
wait hold on are you trying to say that
America is the food stuck on
dishes right now
and China's trying to do the dishes
am I getting that right
the analogy is that China is soaking
instead of just
going with a hard attack.
Right.
They've allowed this ideology to be bolstered and fester.
Well, I'll tell you what, though.
It does feel like a lot of American citizens are softer nowadays.
Very soft.
And then people who stand up and have a strong spine.
Canceled.
Canceled.
Oh, are you talking against it?
Canceled.
Get rid of it.
We can't have people thinking that
they can be strong that they can have a strong mind and have critical thinking no no no no let's
not let's not have people idolize strong thinkers let's let's have them i don't think wither away
you you have you have about uh like 11 or 12 percent of the cdc demanding the cdc declare
a public health crisis due to racism they can can't. They can't do that.
It's not possible.
They cannot do that.
Right.
It's not a function of their.
I mean, it's I'm talking I'm talking about what the ramifications of what that would
mean if I thought you meant it was like not bureaucratically possible to make a decree.
I don't know.
I don't know if maybe they can, but you know, you know what happened?
I cannot do it, though.
Do you know what happened if that was the case, though?
If the CDC said, okay?
Man.
All of a sudden, you will find yourself one day, they're burning the Declaration of Independence.
Probably.
It was made by white slave owners to defend their slavocracy.
You don't want to defend that.
But it also declared every man equal.
Yep.
You know, it's like that's what they want to get rid of people don't understand how serious this is when you have a large portion of various federal government agencies that have
become zombified yep so maybe maybe it's not just war with china maybe it's both civil war and war
with china maybe the goal would be that if a war with china breaks out they trigger some kind of
internal conflict so that we destroy ourselves.
It's the only way they'd win.
Doesn't that make sense?
Doesn't that seem like the exact thing that they would want to do?
And I will say it again.
The things listed in this whiteness, white culture thing are literally just the bonds of a functioning society.
Yeah, exactly.
Hard work.
Right.
Hierarchy.
Time schedules.
This is not unique to white people.
Self-reliance. Self-reliance.ance it's like have you ever watched anime you know like anime anime characters superhero comics
whatever they all teach these things it's cross-cultural yeah being number one winning
winning hierarchy being polite yep yep they show not showing emotion it's like i i show my emotions Being polite. Yep. Yep. Not showing emotions.
Like, I show my emotions proudly.
Avoiding conflict.
Avoid conflict.
Yep.
Intimacy.
Intimacy is a white thing.
Look at this written tradition.
How dare you?
This is not anything to do with white. They're literally saying, if you want to end racism, you need to stop avoiding conflict.
Yep.
Whoa, whoa, whoa whoa so what
we should go around fighting each other if you want to end racism you need to start showing
your emotion be angry they say it on twitter all the time yeah you telling me to calm down
is white supremacy it is non-having a civil conversation is is white supremacy i guess
but but how else do they get people to stand behind this stuff? I don't know. They say, Adam, you're not racist, are you?
You want to end white supremacy, don't you?
Of course.
Who doesn't?
Everybody does.
It's horrible.
Let me show you a list.
Yep.
There it is.
Intent.
Protecting property.
Protecting your property is white supremacy.
Wow.
That sounds pretty communist.
I had a conversation earlier with a local guy.
And I told him about what happened in St. Louis.
And I said, I've been warning people, man.
And I mean this seriously.
A mob of 300 to 500 people showed up to a private community.
Signs say no trespassing.
They apparently broke a lock,
entered. At some point, someone broke the gate. The people who live in the house who saw these people enter their private property, on their property, brandished weapons. I don't mean that
in a negative sense. They pulled out their guns and said, get off our property. They were on their
own property. It was private property that was gated. A mob of people broke in. Yep. Threatened them.
And this is a castle doctrine state.
What law did they break?
I don't know.
Well, I'm not sure.
What ended up happening was the protesters came back.
And then the police came back, served a warrant, and seized a rifle from this homeowner,
who in a castle doctrine state stood his ground on his property when people broke into his private property. Why did the police go after him? I am telling you this now.
When the mob comes to your house, so many people just cannot understand this. And I've been saying
it for a long time. It will not be a bunch of Antifa lunatics bang on your door threatening
you. It's going to be a bunch of lunatics in the street screaming. The police will come to your door, knock and say, I'm really sorry to do this,
but you're under arrest. For what? We got a warrant. For what? Doesn't matter. I'm just
doing my job. The people in St. Louis, the McCloskeys were attacked, legally defended
themselves, and the police went after them. So what do you think happens
when the financial institutions are now overrun with these zombified cultists?
That's scary to think about. Absolutely scary to think about. You'll find your bank account frozen,
your insurance not paid out, your bank, your master card gets canceled. You get terminated
from all internet services. You are canceled outright. Yep. And you can do nothing about it.
And it's in government.
So right now, some people think, well, at least, you know, we're still equal under the
law.
And that's what comes next.
The financial institutions have already banned people.
There's many people who are banned from owning credit cards and from using them in people
in their homes.
Yep.
There's many people who have been banned from speaking on social media.
And now we're learning the federal government has these people coming.
So then what's going to happen is, oh, there will be a law that says, you know, you are FDIC
insured. Your bank account, for whatever reason, you know, it went under and we're going to insure
that cash in there. And you're going to show up and the person working in the government's going
to go, oh, it's you. You're not a bigot, are you? Says here online, you've been canceled. Bye-bye. But I'm legally entitled to, I don't care.
Yep. But, but, but my money, I don't care because you're a racist. And what happens if the CDC
declares a public health emergency? And then you actually have some kind of weird CDC enforcement
of, well, time is white supremacy. It's just destroying the bonds and
walking us down towards the cliff to jump off. Meanwhile, we've got serious conflict brewing
with China. And people keep saying, you know, it's a bit irksome. China's a paper tiger. They
can't do anything. They're too weak. They'll never win. We're not going to be fighting a war
where, you know, a bunch of U-boats or whatever crash
into the shores of China or something or Taiwan or where Chinese boats crash in the shores
of Los Angeles.
We're going to be fighting a social media war where private information and financial
details get leaked.
What would happen if China, say, exfiltrated banking information and published all of it?
Every credit card, every username and password of every bank account.
It's a frightening premise it would be like if they open if there was one big bank that everyone you know went to in this country
just one and all the money was in it and then one day they just blew it up and all the money was
just laying there everybody would just run and start grabbing whatever they could if they published
every name and username of banking accounts and i believe they have they have the capability to do
so especially after this yeah random people would just log in and start taking your your money and you'd have nothing everyone
would have nothing it would just be the end scary or your private details your private information
your your your private messages yeah the bonds of society would fracture yeah it would be a
cyber attack I mean they could they could hit our our power source they can hit I mean, they could hit our power source. They can hit, I mean, that especially, you know, like we would lose if we lost power
and everything just shut down and we couldn't get it back up because they took over and
put in some malware that just destroyed everything.
Yeah.
Cyber attacks are serious business.
Yes, it is.
Scary business.
You know, for the longest time, we haven't had any really good cyber capability systems.
Right.
I remember, so there's a couple of hacker conventions, Defcon and Black Hat.
And I've seen demonstrations where they're like, oh, here's how you blow up an oil refinery.
And they just like types in a line of code and press enter.
And then you watch a thing, do a demonstration where it's like, oh, there it goes.
There was one I watched where they actually popped a valve.
Like they burst the pipes. Wow. They forced two pumps to go in the wrong direction and burst a pipe
it's that simple and and they were like we can mount the the you know a device on a drone
the drone could get within radio radio range and we could transmit that wirelessly and then
gone man yep yeah it's gonna be crazy times though man this is 2020 people round seven
yeah the funny the funny thing to me about all this is you know when people get mad that it's
like it can never happen here we've been hearing it over and over and over again and i have i have
to just say it's like i say this before but i'm gonna say it again to everybody who's, you know, did I make all this up?
It can happen anywhere.
Am I the one who hacked Twitter and said it was a cyber attack? These are the conversations
happening among journalists. We just saw this executive order from Trump. We just saw the,
you know, in the past month, a strike group in China. These things have literally happened and
security experts have said, we fear this is going to happen. In 2015, the Atlantic wrote in the past month a strike group in China. These things have literally happened and security
experts have said, we fear this is going to happen. In 2015, The Atlantic wrote Thucydides'
Trap is going to lead us into a war with China. And since then, we've had article after article
after article. And you know what really annoys me? The stupid people who keep saying it'll never
happen here, no matter how many times security experts keep saying it's starting to happen it's
almost here wow that looks like it's it they're like this is not real you're just you're just
you're just fear-mongering well we just got attacked today twitter just got hacked and and
listen even if we take it at face value that was a bitcoin scam that's the scariest proposition. You know why? You know what's less scary?
What?
It's actually comforting if this was an attack from China.
You know why?
How come?
Because that means if this was just a Bitcoin scam,
some random moron was able to take Obama and Biden's Twitter account and steal them from Jack Dorsey, and he couldn't do anything about it.
If that's the
case imagine what china could do right if if some random idiot was able to fish biden and then tweet
a stupid bitcoin scam and that's like the dam you know about the the three gorges dam is is like on
full like all of them are open, and it's flooding everything downtown.
Where?
Like Wuhan.
Everything's flooding downtown of the dam in China right now.
So they're probably, 400 million people live south of this.
Why is the dam flooding the city?
Because the dam can't hold back the water anymore.
So it's at its peak.
So they have all of them open open just blasting water out right now
and who knows what's going to happen like they they're probably stressing they that i don't even
know what the implications of it will not be but it's happening so china is definitely stressing
about some stuff there's a big story now brewing in africa i don't have the details pulled up but
it has something to do with a dam on the i think think it's the Blue Nile. So there's the white and the blue, and then they merge into the Nile River.
So Egypt is at the end, basically.
And in Ethiopia, I think it is, they're building a dam, which is filling a reservoir, which is restricting water to Egypt, which would slow it down.
Egypt's starting to get worried because they're reliant on the streams that come from these other places.
Yeah, that's true.
And apparently China is backing the project.
That's at least some of the reports that I've seen.
Yeah, it says they failed to reach an agreement today.
And was there Chinese involvement?
Well, I'm going to check.
Yeah, see if you can find anything on that.
Yeah, man.
You know, earlier today, we were just chilling.
We were skating.
Adam threw down this line.
And that was it.
That's all that was.
While the world was seemingly burning down on Twitter and people were screaming out these hacks,
we were just chilling in the backyard.
Cool breeze came in.
Temperature dropped several degrees, like the lows in the 60s right now.
And we were just skating.
And everything was just gone.
Just gone away.
But the more I talk to people, the the crazy thing is like that there are people around
here who are starting to get worried and get scared yep i was just talking to a guy who was
telling me he's putting together like a big rv rig to gtfo yep and i'm like where like where do
you hear this stuff why do you think that right and who are these people who think nothing is
happening and everything's going to just be like, be nothing. Like, there are so many things
Barack Obama could have tweeted
that would have just ended the world.
That's a good point.
What people need to realize
about this Twitter hack,
they took $136 billion
off of the stock market
in a minute
with one tweet from the AP.
Imagine what would happen
if they were able to take control
of Donald Trump's Twitter account
and then he tweeted something like...
Oh, man.
I want to be careful about what I say.
I mean, any...
It could be anything.
Yeah.
There's countless things we could probably say
in this place there.
What if he just tweeted,
you know, the federal government
arrested, you know, person X
during the riots
and has just summarily executed
them in an offshore rig. Let this be a warning to the far left. You're next. Right. What do you
think would happen if be crazy? Yeah. Or if like Joe Biden announced that, you know, we can't wait
till the election. It's time to move in. We're taking it. Yep. We're ending it now before it's
too late. There's a lot of things they could tweet, especially controlling that many accounts.
The other thing, too, about the hack was that you could do a search for the terms,
and you could see that it was actually widespread.
Non-verified users, people across the board had been hacked by this.
Yeah, man.
But I don't know.
Should we be more optimistic?
Is there a better way to look at things?
Is there a different way to look at things? Is there a different way to look at things?
Are we being, are we, is it because we're just watching the news all day that we get wrapped up in this stuff?
I mean, I am the optimist. I am ever the optimist.
I always try to be, you know, look at the lighter side of things.
But that doesn't mean I'm not a realist. And I think realistically, this is probably the closest we've come to war in my lifetime.
I mean, like an actual world war.
Like there was the war in Afghanistan.
Exactly.
You know, sure.
Like in the 90s, what was it?
The Desert Storm.
Right, right. So it's like, you know, I wasn't really political,
and it didn't really hit us here in America,
where this is, it looks like they are undermining every facet of our country,
and they're in the minds of the youth, and that scares me also.
You know, I have a lot of friends of mine that I've been having these long conversations with and uh a lot of them are mad at me and are blinded by this confused um like call to to be virtuous essentially you know they think they're being
so virtuous by doing what they're doing and then
you know it's so hard to to really just say all of the things that i've learned over the past
five months you know like i just want to be like go watch every single episode of timcast irl and
you'll get a little hint of how how i know all the things i know because i've been doing nothing
but conversating you know with people who who know what they're I know because I've been doing nothing but conversating, you know, with people who,
who know what they're talking about. And I've been looking into things,
you know,
but seeing this,
like even,
I mean,
this is crazy.
This is the whiteness,
the whiteness thing is,
it just,
it's not white culture.
It's,
it's civilization.
Yep.
Absolutely.
Hard work.
That's how humans got here.
Do you think that's how humans are still alive right now because of hard work that's how humans got here do you think that's how humans are still alive
right now because of hard work because we worked hard to get here did the japanese not farm right
did they not farm do they not work hard japanese people work super hard every single country works
hard to be the good citizens of every country work hard to to do well and get a job and work and thrive.
Everyone wants that.
Getting rid of all of this, they just want to wipe out humanity.
That's the way I'm looking at it.
But it's only affecting the U.S.
It's crazy.
China's overtly racist.
Yeah, they are.
They make commercials and they laugh.
They have a word, beizua.
It means white left.
It's basically their version of SJW.
That's true.
They mock. It's true name they mock it's
funny to them yep it's funny to us too to it to it to a certain degree yeah until it until they
start undermining the the roots of what it means to be an american when people were warning that
the stuff in colleges would one day reach industry yeah a lot of people in the media were like ha ha
ha there is hope i was reading an
article from cook political earlier and they said that donald trump's path to victory is to hammer
down on cancel culture because when it comes to the rioting people are sympathetic to police
brutality issues but when it comes to cancel culture the average person is terrified yep it's
true donald trump has talked a bit about it you know when they when
they pull down christopher columbus and stuff people start getting you know they start giving
the side eye like wait what's going on but cancel culture isn't a direct a direct attack on regular
people exactly what's biden gonna do if donald trump says your supporters are are attacking the
jobs and the businesses of regular people trying to get him canceled right what's biden gonna say
well f those voters sure Sure, he can.
And then they're going to be like, well, then F you too.
Yeah, exactly.
These people.
Biden's putting himself in a really, like, in a corner because he's catering to them.
I watched his speech the other day.
He sounded like he was talking to a room, an empty room. But regardless of that, it sounded like he was trying to say all the stuff that that is
trump's platform without saying it yep yep it's like by american how are you you're he's trying
to cater to both sides thank you there you go thank you yeah exactly that was uh our new sound
button by the way yeah apparently we've we've had streamed that we could have done it the whole time
yeah ready ready for this i'm gonna i'm gonna alley-oop you okay for which one well biden our new sound button, by the way. Yeah, apparently we've had streamed it. We could have done it the whole time. We could have done it the whole time.
Ready for this?
I'm going to alley-oop you, okay?
For which one?
Well, Biden, it seems like he's really trying to... Cheat an election.
Good teamwork there, buddy.
Cheat an election.
We'll get better.
You're a lying dog-faced pony soldier.
You can try me.
You can try me, Biden.
But I see right through you, man.
You're a lying dog-faced pony soldier.
I ain't afraid of you, Biden.
We officially went from being very serious, the world is ending, to soundboard clips of Greta Thunberg yelling at us.
What are we going to do?
I regret nothing.
So according to this Cook political thing, if Trump starts coming out with this messaging that under Joe Biden, he will be too weak to stop the far left.
He's opened the door and you will you'll lose your job.
You'll you'll be kicked out of school.
And it's happened.
I forget the there's an Antifa woman who was talking about how we need to vote for Biden because he's malleable.
He will he will bow down to the mass, the masses, and our current president won't.
She straight up said that.
Yeah.
And that is a frightening thing because I believe it.
I agree with her.
She's right on that, and that's why we must vote for Trump.
What's obstinate times 100?
Is there a word for that?
I don't know.
That's Trump.
Immovable. Yeah. Man, if Trump doesn't want to,
Trump doesn't do it. It's like, that guy is well beyond
stubborn. Joe Biden just goes, what?
What am I supposed to do? I've got this list here of
reporters I'm allowed to talk to. Is this person from the
AP here? Oh my gosh.
Is that what he did?
You didn't see that?
Straight up.
He says it's the person from the AP?
Yes.
Maybe that's the plan though, man.
He was like, is this specific person here?
Anyone?
I don't know who it is.
This is the list of approved people I'm allowed to talk to.
Maybe the whole bit is to make Biden so non-threatening that the whole thing is just for and against Trump.
That's literally what it is.
Yeah.
People aren't voting for Biden.
So Biden's purposefully just milling about and falling asleep and being bumbly.
The orange man bad rhetoric is flaring.
It's flaring wide.
And I've, well, you know what?
Little shine of light for everyone out there. For every person that has complained, that has yelled at me, that called me names, that has – on my Facebook page, I said I'm voting for Trump.
I want to have – let's have a conversation about it.
I'll explain to you why.
We can talk for every person that has been crazy coming at me.
There's been more hitting me up privately going, you're you're 100 percent right.
I agree with you. Not not just privately posting on the post to defending me, talking about he's he's right.
You know, especially my friend from Venezuela. He's like, I lived in Venezuela.
I'm a proud American citizen now. I don't want it to happen here. And this is what's happening.
And everyone just was like, yeah, whatever. They're not mutually exclusive.
And it's like, are you kidding me? Do you are you even.
And then that that same person sent me a bunch of stuff like here.
We'll read all this stuff. And it was all, you know, allegedly he, Trump allegedly did this, his, you know, everything, this. And I was like,
well, here, you know, just, you know, check this out too. No, no, I don't want, I don't need to
read propaganda. It's like they're brainwashed. This is what I tell people. Do you think,
not everybody, you're on the side of the good guys? Is it the good guys who refuse to learn and read and understand?
No.
So if you're someone who says, I won't read that, isn't that kind of what the bad guys do?
Absolutely.
Now, do you have a problem with Trump supporters who refuse to learn the truth?
They say yes.
Yeah.
I want to know all sides of all situations.
I want to read everything. I'm talking about these Democrats. Yeah. Yeah. I want everyone. I want to know all sides of all situations.
I want to read everything.
I'm talking about these Democrats.
Right.
These lefties will be like these Trumpsters don't even read the news.
It's like, no, no, they're reading everything. They're reading all of the news.
That's actually a fact.
Oh, OK.
This is that was just my assumption.
But it is a fact.
It's a fact.
It makes sense.
Conservatives, according.
There's at least one survey that Afton site.
I don't have it pulled up, but conservatives get 60% of their news from conservative sources
and around 30 or so percent from liberal sources.
Okay.
Moderates are about 60% liberal sources and 30% conservative.
Okay.
And liberals are like 95% liberal sources.
That's crazy.
So the left—yeah, this came up in the Joe Rogan and Jack Dorsey thing I did
where Jack mentioned that leftist journalists don't follow conservatives, but conservatives do follow leftists.
Yep.
And this is seen easily on Twitter.
You'll see someone from the Daily Caller, from the DZ Examiner.
They'll be responding and tweeting at, you know, Vox.
Vox never goes the other way.
These journalists don't follow conservatives.
So the crazy echo chamber all the way on the far left gets worse and worse and worse
and crazier and crazier and crazier yep absolutely man and then we get this weird ideology yep and
we start swirling the drain man so that's where we're at look i know a lot of people who started
like so listen gold is skyrocketing yep property in montana idaho iowa wy is skyrocketing. Yep. Property in Montana, Idaho, Iowa, Wyoming skyrocketing.
Yep.
This is the weirdest thing to me.
When people are like, you know, it's not going to happen.
You're overreacting.
I really don't think anything's going to happen.
You know, Trump's going to win.
It's fine.
And I'm like, then who are these people of means with a lot of money who are buying all
this gold right now, who are buying all this property in the middle of nowhere?
Why is, why is, who are these people this property in the middle of nowhere. Why?
Why?
Who are these people of means in New York City who are fleeing 500000 people?
And why are they doing it?
Why?
It could be because there's been mass riots for 40 plus days.
I was talking to a friend and they were like, but the right stopped a long time ago.
No, they just tried to set the courthouse on fire last night in Portland.
It's going on. Yeah. And there's a
video going around where the guy's waiting at the door with the hammer pulled back for the Fed to
walk out. They had a state of emergency last week in Utah and Georgia, a state of emergency in
Georgia and Utah by the end of the week. And so I'm just, I'm curious, you know, I guess these
people, they don't read the news. No, These people that are buying all this property are leaving the cities.
A billion-dollar industry was taken to Arizona from Seattle.
How many people left New York City?
Half a million.
Half a million people just up and left.
Bye.
I personally have a really good buddy of mine.
The place he worked at closed for months, and he was like, I'm done.
Him and his family moved to upstate.
This country just changed dramatically, more than it's ever changed.
And it's changed more in the past month, in the past two months, three, than it has in the past 30 years, probably.
And all these, the Democrats that have done all this craziness are just making people rethink Democrats.
There's a lot of people that will vote that voted Trump, but still hit Democrat.
Then how how is how are the polls skewed the way there are all these journalists?
We talked about these the polls, though.
It's like it's it's and then but look at all the people on the left.
Where do they get their news from each other?
Yeah.
Who do you think they're polling?
Each other.
Of course.
And then not only that.
Hey, who are you voting for?
I'm not going to tell you I'm voting for Trump because cancel culture is live and well.
You know, for most.
You want to tell a journalist you're voting for Trump? You want to tell a journalist you're voting for Trump?
No way.
A journalist called me and said, who are you voting for?
And I'm like, Biden?
Yeah. Not everyone has the, you know, the luckiness to work for someone like you, like me.
I'm talking about myself.
I can gladly say I'm going to vote for Trump.
I think that's it right there.
I think that's it.
That's the one piece that's been missing from this.
Why would a Trump supporter lie to a pollster?
Because they're not a pollster as far as they know.
They say, hi, I'm calling from The Economist.
Hi, I'm calling from ABC News.
Right.
Can you tell me who you are voting for?
Biden.
I don't know who you are.
Yeah, you can't prove that.
A journalist wants to know who you're voting for?
Yeah, no thanks.
Yeah, right.
Right, exactly.
I'm going to tell it.
Because, look, I think people, I think one of the contributing factors, correlation causation between,
you know, why someone would vote for Trump is if they understand the news has been lying,
deceptive, manipulative, agenda driven. And so you have people who aren't about Trump supporters.
You'll never know they're Trump supporters and they know the media is full of it.
Now they may be their Trump supporters because the media is full of it and they've seen the
media lie, or maybe it's because they were Trump supporters in the first place and Trump calls them fake news and they don't trust the
media. But then the media calls. Hi, I'm calling from the Washington Post. We're conducting a poll.
I'm a journalist, you know, trying to figure out how people are feeling. Can you answer some
questions for me? Sure. How do you feel about President Joe Biden? That's great.
Yeah.
Do you want to tell a journalist so they can publish your name,
dox you, spread it for their Antifa friends or whatever?
Nobody wants that.
Of course not.
But I think you got to be careful because that could just be wishful thinking.
For all we know.
I think most Trump supporters are diehard Trump supporters.
Most?
Yeah.
But then does that mean there's enough to overcome the gap
in the polling? Every single person who is going to vote is going to vote. They're going to do it.
I haven't voted in 12 years. Are you planning on voting this year? I'm planning on voting.
Me too. Yeah. I'm absolutely going out and voting. And I'm talking about who I want to vote for
because I think it needs to be spoken about.
Like people need to talk about it and not be afraid to talk about it.
I'm not afraid.
I'm ban me.
Facebook, bring it on.
I don't care.
Cancel me.
Go ahead.
I'm OK with it because I'm still going to be saying what I'm saying.
You're in that position right now.
So you're at like 32,000 on Twitter or whatever?
Yeah, I guess so.
You're in this position where you're growing fast enough where Twitter is obviously going to start getting worried about like, oh, this guy's going to get a lot of followers.
This this this hippie vegan skateboarder guy who just decided to vote for Trump.
Yep.
And I say this.
I know it may sound conspiratorial, but a video went up of Adam talking about
how he's decided to vote for Trump.
And it was like liberal votes for Trump.
And it was deleted several times.
In two days.
Millions of views.
Why was it deleted several times?
So look, you can call it a conspiracy, whatever.
I'm saying the bias is real.
We've seen it.
And your videos are taken down.
Yep.
So once you get to a certain point where you have enough followers, it becomes very difficult for them to remove you because it would cause too much of a PR headache.
But you are in that danger spot where they're like, hmm, maybe we should ban him before he gets too big.
It's too late.
It's too late.
People would talk about it.
Yeah.
He got banned.
Yeah.
Of course.
Boom.
They'd be talking about it.
That liberal guy said
he was voting for trump they just nuked all of his stuff why no idea well i'm announcing it right
now if they do you know exactly why because freedom of speech does not exist anymore well
if we must maintain freedom of speech period if conversation go ahead if trump or however you know we see twitter youtube facebook
and whatever get nationalized because the risk to our security in this country is too great
maybe not nationalized maybe that's but a lot of people are saying it but you have a combination
of factors that you don't see necessarily in say the financial institutions but we we have
completely insecure systems.
So there's got to be some kind of law.
They've got to lock this down.
They've got to secure it.
We cannot allow this to happen again.
We're lucky they fired one across the bow.
It's a warning shot.
And they're saying, heads up.
We need 230 reform.
We need a rebalancing of political discourse in this country.
We don't have it.
This is one way to do it.
It would bring the First amendment right into twitter and not only that these these these tech companies lack the ability to make
substantive money in the first place outside of algorithmic manipulation and trying to sell ads
so maybe we're better off with a public service that is twitter we need it and then it is you
said social media is becoming the new town square that happened a
long time ago definitely it is absolutely the town square that's where people talk they don't
call each other anymore they don't halfway don't even text each other much anymore it is all social
media what's going on let me go share pictures with the family it's like i i half of the people
that i i said i
had a tweet a couple weeks ago i said would you miss facebook if it was gone the only people that
said yes it was because they would miss talking to their grandmothers or they're seeing what the
family was doing and it all the only thing i could say to that was call your grandmother
call her up she would she would much appreciate a call from you than you tagging her on a Facebook page so she can see your kids.
I'm serious.
Go visit her.
Go visit your grandmother.
I need to go visit my grandmother.
I don't hit her up on Facebook.
I don't go on Facebook.
Facebook has just become where older people are. Maybe. Yeah, I don't see a lot on Facebook. I don't go on Facebook. Facebook has just become where older people are.
Maybe.
Yeah, I don't see a lot of younger people on it anymore.
I don't even use it.
I use Messenger.
I don't really use...
I barely use Messenger, dude.
You know what?
I go on there now to talk about my political views.
Yeah.
And start fires.
Start fires?
Figurative fires.
Yeah, yeah.
I use Messenger for like five people. I don't even know why I use it. I don't know why Iative fires. Yeah, yeah. I use Messenger for like five people.
I don't even know why I use it.
I don't know why I have it.
Yeah.
I don't need it.
Facebook's just gone.
Twitter is a political conversation.
It's a big dumpster fire and everyone's jumping around up and down.
Very exciting.
Nothing else.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
YouTube has become very important.
YouTube is a place for people to listen to podcasts.
Yep.
I think YouTube in terms of
podcasting is way bigger than itunes i've i've seen i've seen i'll trust you on that i don't
know i've seen the numbers for itunes for some of the biggest podcasts in the world and i'm like
it's not it's barely worth it it's like i get it's worth it to a certain degree you know it
is that the journalists use it true journalists are all sitting on itunes this is the worst thing
you know what maybe maybe
twitter shutting on the blue checks was one of the greatest gifts to mankind well they're back
i know vox and the guardian are laying people off and i'm sorry but i'm not sorry i'm so i'm i'm
sorry to the industry but i'm not sorry to these people yeah you know we we need good journalism
but right now journalism has become a bunch of woke, you know, you know, it's that meme of the dogs, the super ripped dog journalist in the 1930s.
The mafia might kill me, but I'm going to get the story anyway.
And the next one is the frumpy little dog saying someone called me a mean name on Twitter.
I need a one month vacation.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And full benefits.
Well, the Barry Weiss letter, you know, it's like even even the moderate you know who
hated trump she hated trump right oh yeah totally it was like anti-trump moderate working for the
paper tulsi gabbard she called her a toady and then didn't she got ragged for because you didn't
know what toady was or how to spell it right that was brutal that was brutal not even allowed to be
moderate anymore they're coming for the liberals yeah matthewias, the co-founder of Vox, is tweeting out these like, help, I've been kidnapped messages.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah, these cryptic, creepy messages.
What happened to Matthew?
Dude, dude.
Matthew Iglesias co-founded Vox.
Okay.
Lefty publication.
And he tweets things like, I have an opinion, but I'm not going to say anything.
Wow.
He's basically saying, help, help, I'm being repressed.
Literally.
He's sending coded messages out.
What's happening? They've silenced me. I have words. I can being repressed. He's sending coded messages out. What's happening?
They've silenced me.
I have words.
I can't use them.
Well, you said it best many times, Tim.
If all the people that were fed up with cancel culture,
if they just got up and said, we've had enough, it would end.
Because there's a lot more of them than these people trying to cancel they're just
they're just being bullies i don't believe in the silent majority no you don't believe it i don't
believe in it i need evidence before i believe in something that's a good point and so it's like
what i see so far is like a dude on twitter will go the silent majority and it's like one guy in
a room yelling and i'm like bro you're by yourself there's nobody around you nobody's got your back
if you walked up to me and said,
I'm going to get in a fight with you. And I'm like, okay, well, here's my leftist collectivist
buddies who won't shut up. And then this other guy goes, well, the silent majority is on my side.
Where are they? I don't see them here. Hey, so I have a question about that.
Yeah. Do you think that it's possible that you don't see anybody really interacting with people
who say we're the silent majority because the algorithms are kind of stifling them?
No.
Well, did you hear about the protest in front of Trump Tower against BLM?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Did you hear about them taking over the entire Brooklyn Bridge?
The anti-BLM ones?
The pro-police.
Defend the police march.
Took over the Brooklyn Bridge.
That was a lot of people.
Yeah.
That's a lot of people.
They're starting to stand up.
I'm seeing a lot of defend the police protests out there.
And it's good.
To be fair.
It's happening.
To be fair, in terms of, you know, when we see the left, they're in cities, so they're hyper-concentrated.
True.
And the anti, you know, the counter-prot protesters would be in rural areas where there's
no real easy way to gather true so that's true but on social media the inverse should be true
it should be easier to see more conservatives complaining now i understand not when not when
the company is yeah that's what i was gonna allude to it's like they're banning the people
who want to speak out that are talking the other side of things. Then maybe in the cities there's no real resistance.
Maybe it's just... Maybe they all left already.
I don't know, man.
If a silent majority
screams in the woods and there's no one around to see it,
do they even exist?
Sure, they technically do.
But are they going to change anything? No, of course not.
If the majority of people show up at town
hall holding up blank signs
and, you know, let's say the majority,
let's say massive, million, two million
people in New York, the majority,
went to, were all in the
streets holding up signs and the signs were blank.
What would the city do?
I don't know.
I don't know either.
No one's holding up any signs.
All they're saying is whose streets are streets.
Not even saying, no, they're not saying that either.
Well, that doesn't really say anything, so I feel like that's pretty neutral.
These people are just, you know, and then one person in the middle of it goes,
we're the silent majority.
And you're like, okay.
Then you look over to your left and you see a group of 100 people smashing windows
and you go, make them stop.
What do they want? that's what's happening that's why i'm not entirely convinced
silent majority really exists well i guess we'll see won't we we will see man we will we will
but uh i i can't remember i think it was matt walsh who tweeted this he's the daily wire right
yeah he i think it was him i don't want to falsely attribute this because this one might be spicy,
but he said something like,
don't waste your breath on people who won't even stand up for themselves.
If you won't stand up for yourself, why should I bother defending you?
Matt Walsh is pretty spicy.
That might have been him.
That's fairly spicy.
It sounded like something he may have said. You know, my tweet, I tweeted out.
I said, I just posted on Facebook I'm voting for Trump.
I'm just looking to see what happens.
There's over a million impressions
on that tweet. It was my largest tweet ever. Oh yeah. Everybody's like, good for you. Proud of
you. We're standing with you. We got your six. Welcome. I'm glad you're opening your eyes.
We got your six. Thank you. Good for you. We're proud of you. Twelve. You're not alone.
That, that was prevalent, heavy. I'm still, they're still tweeting on it and honestly i appreciate
all of you thank you you know it means a lot to hear that when i am putting myself on a platform
where i am right now speaking talking about these issues making a a direct you know choice
and i'm standing by it and i stand by it and there's and there's a risk that you know here's how cancel culture works
pepsi puts out a new flavor watermelon pepsi yeah they immediately get inundated with like 50 tweets
50 but they see in their in their twitter like all these people saying ew gross oh this is nasty so
nasty and they're like oh no we're getting inundated with messages what do we do quick
get rid of the flavor meanwhile you had 7 000 people like wow
watermelon this is great yep same thing could be happening to you you go you go you go on twitter
and you're like go trump and then all of the diehard trump people are like yeah and so you're
surrounded by this group and then when you zoom out with that drone shot it's like a tiny little
cluster in a massive empty park good point yeah sure yeah i could i could see that yeah so what
do you do you, other than just
I'll tell you what, I'm going to go vote for Trump. Exactly. Stay true to yourself. That's
what I'm going to do. Don't listen to anybody else. If someone says you're going to lose,
don't do it. Someone says Biden's going to win. You know what for him? Ignore everybody. Trust
yourself. Trust your gut. Not only don't sway. I'm not just going to vote for him. I'm going to
keep telling people why I'm voting for him. And everyone kept trying to, well, why are you going to vote for him?
Why are you going to vote for him?
Because you're basically a racist now.
And I was like, okay, well, no, I'm not.
Here's all of the things that I'm super impressed about that I had no idea what happened.
Still, still nobody has responded to me.
One person hit me up today giving me a bunch of counters.
And I read all of the articles.
All of them were allegedly this happened.
Allegedly this happened.
Allegedly this happened.
And then he spoke about these neo-Nazis.
And I'm just like, God.
I watched his speech myself.
Go listen to his speech.
Too much work.
Listen to this.
Check out this documentary.
Check this out. No, no, no. I don't need to read
your sources because my sources are correct.
Well, let me tell you for the few people that were out there that
I'm talking about right now, there's a lot more people that are reading the things
that I'm reading and going, wow, he's not so bad. He has done
a lot of things because I believe that and going, wow, he's not so bad. He has done a lot of things.
Because I believe that.
And I've seen it.
That's the best way to describe Trump.
He's not that bad.
He's not?
Sure, he's blunt.
And he's brash.
You know, here's the thing.
If they were fair to him in the press, then I'd be like, he's bad.
If they were fair.
Yeah.
But they're not fair.
Right, they're not. And but the standard by which they judge him
is just totally is total bs it is nowhere near as bad as they say he is yeah the whole stop making
me defend donald trump thing is yeah that's a great great meme great that's true making me
defend the man and now i mean ultimately just doesn't even like you look at this guy look at
look at this this is just this is your linefaced pony soldier. Who's voting for that guy?
Are you kidding me?
Are you nuts?
I'm not voting for him.
It's like, you have your choice right now.
We're in a plane, okay?
Trump's flying it.
Now, we can take that guy out because you don't like the way he talks.
He's on the intercom going like,
yeah, there's a lot of dumb people back here.
A lot of stupid people.
And you're like,
oh, this guy is so annoying on the intercom.
And then you've got a guy sleeping.
Yeah.
You really want to hit the sleeping guy
and talk him out because this other guy's got a potty mouth i'm sorry dude
trump's an alpha man he is and there's a lot of people that that alone pisses them off well here's
the way because they don't like alpha males here's one of the ways i describe it you're in a schoolyard
and you got some bully problems okay you got you know bully china and they're they're they're they're pushing around hong kong or whatever yeah and then you're sitting there and you got some bully problems. You got, you know, bully China, and they're pushing around Hong Kong or whatever.
And then you're sitting there, and you're like,
man, we got all these bullies all over the place,
and they're causing problems for everybody.
You got Kim Jong-un.
Kim Jong-un is like the little dude standing next to the big China dude,
and they high-five as they, like, pick on Hong Kong.
And then you're like, I can choose who's going to represent me.
Who do you want to stand behind?
The guy who's asleep in a wheelchair?
Or Trump, who's making fun of people,
mocking them, and pushing people around?
He goes, listen, I'm a mean guy on this playground,
but if you stand behind me, I won't bully you.
I'll bully them.
That way nobody bullies you.
You're going to be like, okay.
I'll be your bully.
Right.
I'll be your bully.
Basically, he said it.
I'll be your bully.
That's it.
He's our bully.
You can call him a bully.
And it's like, yeah, well, American the American people that a lot of them know that.
Yeah, they looked at Hillary Clinton.
They looked at Trump and they're like, Trump's going to push everybody around.
He's going to he's going to like, you know, I was at an airport and this guy said, I've
told the story before.
I was at an airport and the bartender was pro Bernie and the guy sitting next to me
was pro Trump. And they and the guy sitting next to me was pro-Trump
and they both agreed
that Trump was gross
and it was funny to me
because I'm like
I was like you're voting for Trump
and he goes oh yeah
yeah I wouldn't invite the guy
to my house for dinner
hey but the economy's great
you know
so
go where the money is
and I laughed
and I'm like
activists actually rag on people like that
for saying things like that
like the economy is more important the money is more important but I'm like I don't rag on people like that for saying things like that. The economy is more important.
The money is more important.
But I'm like, I don't think they realize what he's really saying.
He's saying that we're succeeding as a nation.
Right.
Why would you vote for the guy who's going to burn it all down just because he sounds nice?
You wouldn't.
You'd vote for the guy who's mean.
He doesn't sound nice to me.
He sounds creepy.
Well, I mean, like, at the time, Bernie Sanders.
Okay.
All right.
Yeah. We're going to give everybody healthcare. Bernie Sanders seems nice. Healthcare for everybody, at the time, Bernie Sanders. Okay. All right. Yeah.
We're going to give everybody health care.
Bernie Sanders seems nice.
Health care for everybody, even the people who don't live here.
You live in the Philippines.
Free health care.
You live in Antarctica for some reason.
Free health care.
Venezuela.
Venezuela.
Health care.
Health care.
Just come on through.
The border's open.
Joe Biden goes, look, fat.
Bernie Sanders said free health care to anybody who crosses that border.
You're a lying dog-faced pony soldier.
That's right.
All right.
Let's play Super Chats.
Nailed it.
All right.
The Grizzly says, hey, Tim, I just got the Battletech box set.
It's a game that's about the future where humanity is at constant war
because of the fall of their space government. It seems dangerously close to where we are now
in history. It's scary stuff, man. Fox Chase Racing says from the website known as Facial Abuse.
What do you mean? I don't know. Facebook? I don't know. Franklin Troll says,
I got canceled, fired, banned on Facebook. At first was deeply depressed, lost decadive
memories and pics after the anger faded, realized how much time I actually wasted in the digital
opium den. Blessing in disguise. Learned who my real friends were. I'm going to spin the UFO for

Polar Bear Jago says, Tim Pool, Maga Beanie.
Let's go.

Yeah.
Not an exaggeration.
Yeah.

Thank you.
Let's see.
Supreme Grandmaster Janice says, Adam, if you're a warlord, can I be your first minister?
Oh.
Sure.
You have an advocate?
Yes.
There you go.
Approved.
Officially, yes.
Sir Average Joseph, I work in a female-dominated field, and believe it or not, 90% of them are voting for Trump.
I work at Massage Envy in California.
Wow.
Awesome.
What if, you know, this may be wishful thinking,
but what if all of these polls are literally just a big old fake conspiracy?
Echo Chamber, telling you, man.
Not just that, but like, because they're, look, they're calling people.
Yeah, that's true.
Who you're going to vote for.
But what if it's all just like they're so scared and desperate that they're just, like you said, fire everything.
What is that from?
It's from Star Trek, the first one.
Nero.
Oh, really?
Yeah, when he gets all mad because the ship is escaping and he's like, fire everything.
Wait, wait.
Nero is the reboot,'s the bad guy the reboot
though the yeah the first movie from jj abrams yeah he did it right yeah yeah awesome movie
and so all these things are just firing out and it's all chaos and nonsensical yep and then in
reality the people are standing in like a phalanx you know a phalanx of maga shields yeah maga
shields and and the the democratic missiles
are just bing bing bing bing and they're just like we're here together bring it on where we go one we
go student of history yes indeed they're gonna they're gonna clip that okay oh man student of
history says adam say look at me i'm the captain now look at me tim you looking at me no look at
the camera no no i'm talking to you i'm the captain now okay now now wait you gotta look at me tim you looking at me no look at the camera no no i'm talking to you i'm the captain
now okay now wait you gotta look at the camera now let me get my camera all right there you go
look at me i'm the captain now say warlord of taz i'm also the warlord of both clarity is
important captain warlord captain warlord aaron m says as an american in hong kong i am both pleased and
concerned by the latest moves by trump's administration pleased because it needs to
happen worried af because my wife is a local and if we flee no idea about immigration i believe
that the u.s should open up its doors to hong kong residents i think the uk is doing it right
three million people wow we should do
something similar i think so too in before a bunch of leftists like no tim's pro refugee i've always
been okay he's like legal legal right exactly through the process the the funny thing about
the left is like i'll tweet something that they actually agree with yeah and they somehow twist
it into something i don something that they disagree with.
That's what I was talking about,
the Bugs Bunny-ing.
I'm like, did you see what I tweeted?
Why would you assume it's against you?
I literally said something like you should support because it's tribalism.
Yep, exactly.
Beanie Man bad.
Beanie Man bad.
Yeah, so no matter what I say.
Wait, did you disagree with me on this one subject?
So that means you disagree with me on every subject.
That's how they,
that's how their minds work though.
It's because the far left will lie
and pull things out of context.
And then when they see me
and I say something they agree with,
they're like,
he must mean the opposite.
Brain doesn't compute.
Yep.
Yeah.
It fries them out.
Right.
Their brains explode.
Let's see.
Aaron M again says,
the irony of China getting pissed about US moves
on Hong Kong is astounding.
Hong Kong's entire ability to exist
as a financial hub since 1997
was because of the US laws separating China from HK.
Yep.
Brett Lovell says,
what if the mail voting scheme is set up,
is to set up Trump?
Hear me out.
Trump wins 2020 with fraud votes by Russia
organized and paid for by the DNC.
The DNC then investigates Trump.
There's a million and one scenarios.
Of course, of course, they're going to, I mean, whatever, Russiagate 2.0, sure.

Cole Zone says, did Trump just expel all Chinese influence in one strike?
It would seem so.
Look at this one. It does seem
like it. Yeah. China owns Smithfield Foods. Yes, it does. Which is the biggest pork producer in
the U.S. and possibly the world. Apparently the overarching company in White House Group in China.
It's worth taking a look into located in Virginia. Yeah. Trump just sees pork. Maybe 140 acres. I
think they got in that acquisition of Smithfield.
I think this hack was a shot across the bow saying, don't do it.
I think so, too.
Don't do it.
And what do you...
Do they know who Trump is?
Did you just tell me not to do something?
Excuse me?
Oh, no, China.
No, no, no.
You made a mistake.
Yeah, but Twitter is...
Wicked Kangaroo says,
First time donator, long time lurker.
How do you keep your enthusiasm for politics so fresh
without it sucking all the positivity and energy from you?
I have been politically active since 2014
when Gamergate kicked off,
and I am done emotionally.
Don't let it wear you out.
Obsession?
Obsession?
Addiction?
The thought of letting them win that's it right there
i i passion sure passion think of think about the future let let that think about what would
happen if they won that lights a fire for me especially you know but but listen i i there
there are so many people who are like well
i get it but i'm gonna keep my head down to save my kids but they're gonna vote trump
yeah that's fine they go into that will that be enough i don't know i don't know it they
listen adam listen this is not about just see this is what what has been annoying me it feels like a
lot of these politicians they make it seem like the presidency is the only thing we really need to vote for.
That's the only thing that really matters.
Well, that is crap.
I'm sorry.
Are you voting Republican down ticket?
I'm going to do my research on every single thing that I am voting for.
That's what I'm going to do.
And that's what everybody needs to do.
They need to know every single what every single platform they're going to like the Republicans, Democrats, anybody.
If they're new, if they're incumbents, if they've been there for 40 years and haven't done anything, why are they still there? We got to vote them out.
We have to all all of us be informed on the workings of our government, period.
It's not enough to be passively not SJW.
We must be actively anti-SJW.
Think about what that means when they say it, anti-racist.
Yeah.
They're demanding that people don't just stand by, but join their ranks.
That's true.
The right and the moderates, conservatives, you know, classical liberals, they don't do that.
They say, hey, you do your thing, man.
I get it.
And so what happens?
The collectivists expand, get people to join their cult, and then go around crushing dissent.
That's true.
Man, they're going door to door.
You know that meme of death knocking on the doors?
Yep.
That's what they're doing to everybody.
At first they came for the fishermen, but I didn't care because I wasn't a fisherman.
Then they came for, you know what I'm talking about. I don't remember exactly the words. And I didn't care because I wasn't a fisherman. Then they came for, you know what I'm talking about.
I don't remember exactly the words.
And I didn't care because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Right.
And they came for the communists, and I didn't care because I wasn't a communist.
And they came for me, and there was no one left.
It's funny how we know that poem, yet it's not enough, and still there are people who are like,
well, you know, I know that if I say nothing, you know, look, the worst that's going to happen to my kid
is that they're going to throw him into a gulag.
You know what I mean?
But he'll live. He'll live. Disgusting. Yeah.
African warlord says, Tim, the whole point about the silent majority is that is there silent?
I'm voting for Trump, but none of my friends and barely any of my family knows. I don't,
I don't go, uh, go on social media because it's an echo chamber and I don't want to deal with it.
But that's not necessarily what I mean about the silent majority.
I mean like people at work who won't stand up and say, shut up.
The people who work for these video game companies where they're like,
we're going to put a message when you log into the game that tells you to support this or whatever.
Where are the people at that company to be like, I will quit if you do that?
Nowhere.
But guess what? Black Lives Matter and the far left, they will. They will absolutely
walk out that door, never to be seen again. And the companies get scared. There's an old,
uh, it's an important point when it comes to negotiating for salaries that most people don't
know that it typically costs around 50% of someone's salary to rehire and retrain someone
new for that year. So you're better off just
giving them a raise within that area. Now, it's not absolute because you don't know exactly what
their budget is or what they can afford or how important you really are. But I always tell people
there's actually a really big margin where you can take a position for a raise. Because if you
walk up and say, I want a raise, I want a 25% increase. They might
say no, and you're like, I will walk out that door.
I will walk out that door right now. They're going to be like,
okay, wait, wait, wait. What about
15 or 70? 25 is a lot.
And you're going to get a raise.
Man, I worked for a fast...
Hold on. I want a raise.
Done. I want a raise
or I'm walking out that door right now.
Under one condition. I gave it to you before you I'm walking out that door right now. Under one condition.
I gave it to you before you even threatened me.
Yes.
It worked. What's the condition?
Oh, dang.
25%.
25% raise.
Boom.
Yes.
Nailed it.
I worked.
I am the warlord.
I worked for a fast food restaurant when I had my first job.
And they disrespected me.
So I quit on the spot, man.
They begged me to come back. They offered me everything. And you know what? No, I'm way too
arrogant. I was like, I was like, how dare you? Nice. Insult me, insult me. And I worked so hard
for you. There is no amount of money you can pay me to make it worth it for me to come back
to your company. And they were in panic. You know why? People, you don't get it, man. You don't get
how important you are when they have a schedule set up and they're like, we know who's going to
be here for this job. And you walk out. Guess what that means? It means the manager's got to show up
to work. That's true. It means their day off is gone. They're like, no, no, no, no, no. We'll
give you an extra couple dollars an hour. Just stop. This is what people need to realize about you're sitting in your office and the boss goes, yeah, just put together this message
they want us to put on the window. It says something about, you know, we support this
movement and everyone here does. And you can go, no, absolutely not. I'll quit right now.
I will walk out that door right now. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Don't quit.
Why? Because we're not a political company. We make socks, dude.
We're a sock factory.
There's no reason for us to be endorsing any of this stuff.
We're a sock company.
Hello.
Literally.
That's funny.
Unwoke.hr.
Check it out.
It's cool.
You'll find a job.
The jobs are there and they don't want these crazy people.
So listen, man.
I'm willing to bet that these bosses don't know and don't care.
They're like, I don't know anything about it.
They just asked me to put this flyer in the window.
And you can simply say, I don't think it's a good idea, man, because we should be getting
political.
And they'll go, yeah, it's probably a good point.
That's the end of it.
Yep.
And guess what?
You know what I would do?
If my boss was like, I demand you sign this letter that says we're doing these things,
I would be like, I quit and I did it before and I will do it again. Sure. I get it. I don't got kids. So I don't know what else,
you know, to, to encourage people to stand up. The only thing that really matters is
they'll never leave you alone. All you're doing is biding your time before they finally come and
end you. And there's no one to save you. Ciroden says, Hey guys, read reclaiming conversation by
Sherry Turkle. It explains how social media texting and the like are destroying people's ability to understand
themselves and others.
It states that when people don't understand their emotions, they only know anger.
Doesn't she work for Facebook?
Good point.
Who is that?
Sherry Turkle.
Oh, I have no idea.
I think she's the COO.
COO, really?
I believe.
Here we go.
Fatty Ludus says, don't forget hunter biden still owns 10 of that chinese
company which is linked to the ccp would that make any donation to joe biden through association in
essence against this new executive order whoa ding ding ding there it is wow yeah maybe oh my goodness
i mean we read that and that that's directly what they're talking about.
Hold on.
The authority came from Congress.
Yeah.
Oh, my goodness.
Good point.
Who said that?
That was Fatty Ludus.
Wow.
Nice.
Wow, man.
Wow.
The implications of that are incredible.
Yeah, dude.
Where is he?
Section 5 that says no donations.
No.
You're lying dog-faced pony shoulder.
Scared, man.
Xerxes says, late to the party,
so I don't know if you've already talked about it,
but did you hear of the 13 tons of human hair
custom-seized from China?
Yeah.
Yeah, did you hear about the rifle parts
and the counterfeit money?
Yep.
It's a fun game, huh?
13 tons that were probably from those camps,
the concentration camps that are existing right now Yep. It's a fun game, huh? 13 tons that were probably from those camps,
the concentration camps that are existing right now in China
where they're harvesting organs and human hair.
Judy says, keep up the good work.
We will.
Thank you very much.
Thank you so much.
Let's see.
We got over in this super chat chamber here.
Let's see if we can come down and get some of that.
Let's see.
Okay, so we did read some of these.
Here we go.
Andrew Daniel says, the only hacking victim
in this attack was twitter's administrative api they may have backdoored an abandoned bot api that
had developed to uh to automatically edit questionable tweets using a stealth edits
they lost control too long interesting yes they did man that hunter biden thing that's that's huge
yeah i'm gonna look into that more because that's that's that's maybe trump just pulled the fast one over everybody what's he
gonna do though he's gonna be like i'm oh if there's a connection no no he's talking about
hard assets that's true factories and indirect any person direct that's extremely broad man yeah
what would you do if news broke that trump seized the assets of, like, a whole bunch of really high-profile politicos that are Democrats?
I mean, he would probably—
Would you clap or would you be scared?
He would blast it out.
But I'm saying, like, what would your reaction be?
Would you support it or would you oppose that?
I would probably—I mean, I would do my research.
I would read into it.
I don't know.
I would probably support it because there's a reason that he would do it.
That's where my initial thought would be.
What about the precedent it sets for future elections?
When presidents are accusing their opponents of funding our enemies and stuff?
Well, I would hope that our future elections don't have cronies that are trying to run for president.
We won't have to worry about that. The challenge is
if it's true that Hunter Biden did these things. Yeah. Then a Joe Biden presidency is substantially
worse than anyone realizes. I mean, he already scared me because of the things that he's done.
Let's talk about hard crime, actual bills that he's put. But I'm talking about hard crime. Right.
OK. If Joe Biden is corrupt as he's been accused, then we're talking about someone who's
engaging in hard crimes. Now, they accuse Trump of the same thing. And therein lies the real
challenge. You choose who you trust. I read the news. I believe Trump. I read the news. I believe
Biden. Which news source is better? Which is worse? It's it's a tough call. But the issue,
you know, imagine imagine this. Donald Trump says we have obtained evidence that Hunter Biden did these things. Barack Obama did these things. Joe Biden did these things. They
must be indicted. Bill Barr says we're indicting. The left says this is Trump staging a coup to
prevent his political rival from winning. Do you do you say, well, because of the risk to the norms
of our democracy, let the criminals go? Or do you say arrest the criminals, arrest the criminals?
Or do you say I don't trust Trump? I i mean the the whole obamagate thing it's looking like they were staging a coup
against him in the first place oh totally that stuff is so crooked it's like it's crazy so how
you know it's like if you're paying attention which a lot of people are you know that they're
they're looking at it like, lock them up.
I don't know anybody who knows anything about Obamagate.
No?
None of my friends have any idea.
And it's so hard to explain.
It's true.
I'm like, Joe Biden unmasking.
I have no idea what that is.
It's having to do with, you know, FISA abuse.
I have no idea what that is.
FISA court, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.
What does that do?
It's like, wow, dude.
What if I just told you that barack obama and
joe biden were literally in a room this is released evidence is released of this yep trying
to figure out how to frame one of the trump administration officials yep and they did they
literally not only were they planning it they did so both both of these things have happened
yeah shouldn't they've already been arrested absolutely
so don't look at me i don't know man you know if this if this stuff is all true then bill barr
should have walked out a long time i guess the derm investigation is still ongoing okay we'll
see how this plays out but obama's not going to get in trouble man nothing's going to happen you
know you know why it's because it's not just about what they need to do to get justice it's about the
threat to the country.
If a former president is indicted, they're going to be like, no, it will destabilize the nation.
We can't do that.
Just throw a crony under the bus.
I'll tell you what, though.
The swamp is a mucky place.
It's gross, man.
Yeah, well, Trump had to bring in some of these swamp monsters with him for some reason, like John Bolton.
That dude's the easiest to call out.
True.
Jeff Sessions, that guy lost.
Yes.
Trump, look, man, I got to be honest honest with you trump had hired some really dumb people they made some really bad
decisions i don't know who was advising i guess people are complaining that kushner was advising
to do these things you know some people have pointed out that trump when he was first getting
started was very arrogant and knew it had to be done and was ignoring everybody and then once he
got in he started taking advice more because of the problems that were piling up around him well and because i mean
i was reading about like the whole rex tillerson what is it rex uh rex tillerson tillerson you know
he he someone tried to to show me like well what about this whole thing like he was saying he was
trying to do illegal things and it's like i i looked into it and i i i heard what he was actually
saying he was like i actually agreed with most things that trump wanted to do it's just that he
didn't know how to do them right well yeah he just became president he he's he's a businessman well i
we need to do this okay well i see where your head's at but we can't do it that way we got to
do it this way and rex basically said i was i got tired of being that guy to say
you know and it's like that's some laziness you if you know he has good plans good ideas that you
agree with and yet you know he he doesn't know how to do it that's what your job is that's why
you should be there they're not they don't they don't want to have to do work it's retirement for
a lot of these people then all of them need to retire, and we need new blood.
That's what it used to be.
You got in the administration, you sat back, and you're in the, what's the room they go in?
The situation room.
Situation room, yeah.
And then when they're like, we got this problem with this leaker guy, Julian Assange, you go, can't we just drone this guy or something?
That's what Hillary Clinton reportedly said.
Wow.
Because it's a retirement to these people. Right. They're like, I don't want to actually solve this problem. Can't you just drone him or something? Hillary Clinton reportedly said. Because it's a retirement to these people.
They're like, I don't want to actually solve
this problem. Can't you just drone them or whatever?
That's why we need some new blood.
Purge all the incumbents.
Every single incumbent.
You go home. You're tired. Enjoy it.
Get some new people in.
That's been happening in the Republican Party.
Tons of Republicans retiring.
And new young populists coming in.
Love it.
I love it.
Yeah, man.
Nick Doyle says, with Britain taking HK refugees, China taking that Russian town, and this anti-China
order from Trump, it really feels like we're getting the band back together.
Oh, boy.
Yeah, man.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
Maximum Weeb says, Uncle Tom is outstanding rereading and understanding constitution and
declaration.
Yep.
Calling elected officials, especially local, need to remind they work for us, not the other
way around.
Boom.
Yeah.
They work for us.
Rick Cleek says, give Lydia, give Lydia.
She's smart and cute.
Oh, I think it's for the 10 pounds.
Oh, thank you.
Pretty Princess says, be smart.
Save up food.
So when you get fired for your religion or your politics, you have. Purdy Princess says, be smart. Save up food. So when you get fired
for your religion
or your politics,
you have a buffer
against starvation
for your kids.
Be smart.
Plan ahead.
Yep.
My friends,
we are entering a world
where a new religion
is taking over our government,
our corporate institutions,
our schools,
our cultural institutions,
and it's happening rapidly.
And there's, unfortunately,
a lot of people
who refuse to say anything,
and because of that, they will win, period.
So you're maybe buying yourself some time with voting for Trump and voting for Republicans.
Maybe there's some 230 reform.
Maybe social media gets nationalized to some degree.
And then we get First Amendment protections on social media that rebalances things.
Well, I'm not going to stop talking politics after trump wins no you should you should keep talking you should everyone
absolutely i'm gonna keep telling people they need to know what they're talking about they need if
they're gonna if they're gonna come to me with these uh false accusations i'm gonna come with
them the facts of what's actually going on about um what is it 14 years ago i was in chicago and
it we have really bad
winters in Chicago.
Okay.
And I wanted to skate
in the winter
but it's always cold
and I knew some people
who had rented
a very small,
relatively small
warehouse space.
They built a mini ramp
inside of it
and that was really awesome.
But it was them.
It was theirs.
It was private.
These guys were all older
and it was $100 a month
and you got your own
copy of the key
to come and skate whenever you wanted.'s dope that's amazing so i said wow
we should totally do this is that where brett filmed you that no no that was that was something
totally different okay so i go to a bunch of my friends and i say how would you like to have your
own private warehouse to skate in for only a hundred bucks a month and you'd have a key you
can go whenever you want we'd have some rules like, clean up, don't spill beer on the ramp.
And everyone's like, that's amazing.
I totally want that.
It'd be cool, right?
Great.
Well, I've got a couple hundred bucks right now,
but I need everyone to pitch in $100 up front so we can rent the space.
Oh, well, I mean, you know, get it set up and then come talk to me.
No, no.
If we're going to make it happen, everyone's got to come together to make it happen.
Well, I mean, but there's no place now. And I'm i'm like right but if you give me the money i'll have the place
right i don't know let me know when you have the place and that's that's that's that's kind of how
it feels all the time always yep people who refuse to plant the tree whose shade they know
they will not sit in to make a society grow great. Instead, they say, I'm not going to say anything.
I'm going to resign my children to a horrifying, twisted future run by these weird zealots.
Okay.
Yep.
Well, it's past 10.
And that means the cyber attack has come to an end.
Obama and Biden were hacked.
Maybe we're ever closer to a real conflict.
I have no idea what's going to happen come November.
But I don't know. We're having fun. Yeah. We got some sound bites to a real conflict. I have no idea what's going to happen come November. But I don't know.
We're having fun.
Yeah.
We got some sound bites to play for you.
Sheep.
An election.
How dare you?
You're a lying dog-faced pony soldier.
And there are more to come because Adam's going to actually get a full board.
I'm going to get a full board.
I only have three.
They have to handle the cameras.
I don't have to deal with that.
I'm just going to have awesome sounds.
I'm going to have a smash the like button.
So I can actually smash something
that says smash something. It's going to be great.
We can make it so something pops up on the screen
when you press smash the like button.
Can it be me?
A little picture of me like Hulk smash.
Yeah, I guess.
Well, that has to happen now.
If you have not already,
smash the like button, smash the subscribe button, smash the notification bell.
