Starting point is 00:00:00 The Department of Homeland Security today raided the home of P. Diddy, resulting in a Twitter trend, The Diddler. Batman's greatest arch nemesis, The Diddler, of course. And I love this, I love X. It's a great website. It's awful, it's brilliant, all at the same time, but yes, The Diddler. So the allegations are that P. Diddy was involved in some serious sex trafficking. And so we'll get into that story. There's a rumor going around right now, someone's posted a flight log of a private jet leaving los angeles and heading to cape verde which they claim has no extradition treaty i don't know that's true it's got over i believe
Starting point is 00:00:34 it's got like a million hits on twitter it's going viral so we'll address that and and i want to make sure we address the grain of salt we don't know for sure if this uh this is Diddy's jet or what's going on. And other nudes, other news, other nudes. Donald Trump has some pretty good news coming for him. His bond was reduced to 100 and I believe it was 175 million. He's got 10 extra days to come up with the money. But that doesn't really matter now because DWAC or DWAC, as Fox News likes to call it, has just shot up 35 percent, making Trump now in the top 500 wealthiest people in the world adding about four billion dollars to his net worth so uh
Starting point is 00:01:13 oh boy and then of course uh i'm in the news actually because a couple days ago i had this passive comment that i didn't think was that big of a deal there was an article about this woman who was on Sopranos how she said she makes more money on OnlyFans than she did when she was on Sopranos and I said women choosing to be hookers instead of having jobs is an arc I didn't expect feminism to take I didn't mean it as an insult I thought that was a plainly bland statement
Starting point is 00:01:44 like wow here we go women are choosing to be hookers instead well apparently she took it as an insult. I thought that was a plainly kind of bland statement like, wow, here we go. Women are choosing to be hookers instead. Well, apparently she took it as an insult. A bunch of other women are insulted by the term hooker or whatever, which I didn't realize was offensive. I just thought it was a descriptive term of what they were doing. I just, whatever, I guess. But now they're writing about me.
Starting point is 00:02:00 I'll take it, though. Daily Mail says I am one of the most successful conservative commentators. And I said calling me a conservative. Daily Mail says, I am one of the most successful conservative commentators. And I said, calling me a conservative is an insult to conservatives. So we'll talk about that stuff, too.

Starting point is 00:04:19 Hello, everybody. My name is Phil Labonte. I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains. I'm a very failed musician, anti-communist, and a counter-revolutionary. Hey, what's up, Serge? Yo, Phil.
Starting point is 00:04:27 How you doing, bro? Good. Good. Iamserge.com. Go vote, people. Don't forget. It's not the victory's on the back. Go vote.
Starting point is 00:04:34 I just want to get that message out there as much as possible. Anyways. And register your friends and family. Get them to register. Treat it seriously. There's a lot of efforts into legal ballot harvesting. I recommend everyone take a look at it. But let's jump into the big news today. I can't believe we are opening a show
Starting point is 00:04:50 talking about P. Diddy. SCNR.com reports feds raid three homes owned by Sean Diddy Combs in connection with a sex trafficking case. Three homes. Producer has been accused of running a criminal racketeering enterprise that included murder, sex trafficking, illegal firearms, and drug trafficking. Mansions in LA,
Starting point is 00:05:10 Miami, and New York were stormed by heavily armed agents with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security on March 25th. Homeland Security investigations confirmed the raids to TMZ and said the agency executed law enforcement actions as part of an ongoing investigation with assistance from HSI Los Angeles, HSI Miami, and our local law enforcement partners. We will provide further information that becomes available. TMZ reported the case is being handled out of the Southern District of New York and is likely tied to sex trafficking allegations against Combs in multiple lawsuits in recent months. Now, I'd love to claim SDNY. It must be political bias. But P. Diddy, of course, is anti-Trump.
Starting point is 00:05:48 So must not be it. The music mogul has been fighting multiple legal battles, including from a woman who claims that Combs gang raped her at his New York recording studio after plying her with drugs and alcohol when she was only 17. That case filed last December was the fourth assault lawsuit against Combs. So what I heard is that what they would do is they'd invite artists to studios to record or whatever,
Starting point is 00:06:12 slip them something in their drink. Once they got delirious and loopy, they would then film lurid acts with these people, male or female, and then once they came to say, we're going to ruin your life by posting this video unless you do exactly what we tell you from now on i don't know that's true those are just the rumors that
Starting point is 00:06:29 i heard on the internet and as you know if it's on the internet it must be true the the only thing that i would say about that particular rumor is that is a reapplication of uh the rumors about epstein exactly it's the same the same thing as powerful people using sext as a blackmail tool. So take it for what it's worth. But you know, I mean, if multiple women
Starting point is 00:06:52 are making accusations and stuff, you at least have to look into it. And then when he jumps on a jet and is like, I'm getting off the CODIS. So I don't know how true this is, but it's got almost a million views,
Starting point is 00:07:02 got thousands of retweets and quote teats and people are referencing it a lot. This is just some, I don't know how true this is, but it's got almost a million views, got thousands of retweets and quote teats, and people are referencing it a lot. This is just some, I don't know who this user is. They've got a couple thousand followers. It's, sure, they say it's Isdat. I don't know what their username is. Private jet owned by Sean PDD Combs has left the U.S.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Combs residents were raided by DHS. We know that. The flight path of the plane appears to be headed towards Cape Verde. Cape Verde has no extradition treaty with the U.S. So, at the time of posting this, the plane was still in the air. And as of right now, they've shared the tracking information.
Starting point is 00:07:36 There is a jet. I don't know. It's just a publicly available website showing a jet landing in what appears to be St. John's. So, not Cape Verde. Antigua. available website showing a jet landing in what appears to be uh saint john's so not cape verde antigua is that is that is that i said antigua yeah antigua do they have an extradition treaty with the u.s i don't know i don't know about no idea and i don't even know that that's actually his jet so you know no idea exactly what this means but a lot of people are saying that he was
Starting point is 00:08:03 basically doing what epstein was doing if if if that is a uh if that is his jet there there are a lot of recording studios in the caribbean and stuff like that maybe he just wants to record an album says phil well no no the point that i'm making is uh there would be places in in the caribbean that would be friendly to artists because of there's different types of royalties that you can get when you uh record outside of the united states there's a whole line of of income that's that's available to artists if they're if they record some stuff outside of the united states you can go and look the information up on uh on google but so it would make sense for them to have connections in in places like that and be like,
Starting point is 00:08:45 all right, I'm going to go, you know, we're going to go and record or whatever. So just because there's a plane going there that had alleged ties to P. Diddy doesn't mean it is actually him trying to escape the continental U.S. But it just looks funny, you know. Real quick, just as an aside, the diddler is trending. He did that to himself i was pleasantly surprised to learn that the homeland security uh department actually does investigate international sex trafficking we've only had the worst sex trafficking operation in the history of humanity going on uh enabled by President Biden. And of course, the focus is on this Hollywood musical figure. I tell you, I'm skeptical about everything the feds do.
Starting point is 00:09:34 So I'm sure there's something to be investigated. I must agree. But the deployment of resources here seems to be out of the ordinary considering the crisis on the border with sex trafficking in numbers that would shock the conscience of any American citizen. There are more federal agents and more guns that went to pick up P. Diddy at his house than are at many of the individual
Starting point is 00:09:59 border locations where people go to seek asylum. But how long until the Biden administration is like, look, you can't say we don't take human trafficking and sex crime seriously. We do actually use our forces to take down the bad guys. Like, at what point do they use this as a sacrificial lamb? I hate how much sense that makes. It's awful, right? I mean, I think you're totally right.
Starting point is 00:10:20 If we were serious about these types of crimes, we would immediately address the border. But instead, there's sort of this we'll get a flashy news story going and turn the attention away. I mean, this feels like when the Biden administration is like, hey, you guys hear about those UFOs that we're going to tell you about now? Every time Hunter Biden gets in trouble. Yeah. I mean, there's a thousand women sex trafficked into Los Angeles. Right. And you're in homeland security oh that's that's too hard that's too much work p diddy well the thing is what what's going to give you more bang for your buck picking up p diddy it's going to be all over the news you're going to look like
Starting point is 00:10:58 heroes blah blah picking up nameless faceless trafficked people i mean embarrasses the administration yeah it doesn't all here this is a look you know between senator menendez even hunter biden i have a little sympathy for i don't trust any of the prosecutions not that they're innocent or guilty or whatever yeah the point is that the feds at this level don't make honest decisions when it comes to pursuing claims against people like p diddy to hunter biden to senator menendez and obviously trump's is is the big kahuna in that regard but uh you can't trust that stoj and homeland security they're so compromised uh when it comes to high high level investigations like this and i'm not saying did he did anything right or wrong it's just don't
Starting point is 00:11:45 trust don't trust his enemies here the big question right now i was asking is did he do it or didn't did he do it we don't know what did he did do or what did he didn't do i stole that from south park that's a south park joke everybody knows it's a south park joke but i had to say it did he do it but who names themselves diddy like what where did this come from i'm just saying maybe this has been an open secret for a long time he was in fact so open that he could make a cute nickname out of it puff daddy was you know and then it was p diddy no no no no sean puffy combs sean puffy combs yeah he should have stuck with sean puffy combs that was the most like adult that also gave a a throwback to when he was younger and where he came from. It should have been Sean
Starting point is 00:12:26 Puppycombs. Like Dwayne the Rock Johnson. Right? You know, there was a period where in his movie career it just said The Rock. Yeah. And then they were like Dwayne, quote, The Rock. Now it's just Dwayne Johnson. There you go. It's not as cool. That's lame. The Rock. That one's a downgrade in my opinion. Look, he's currently playing in, or he's
Starting point is 00:12:42 wrestling in the WWE, so that means he's on Raw and stuff, and he's a heel now, and he's awesome. I love Thewe so that means he's on raw and stuff and he's a heel now and he's awesome i love their i think he started on wwe i thought yeah yeah so he's just like circling back well yeah he goes he'll do stuff in movies and he's so busy when he gets to go back to wwe it's a big deal and he doesn't say for a long time he just does one you know a couple little bits one storyline he's off to do another thing but when he's there he's still awesome in the ring he's still great he still delivers lines like it's nobody's business he's still the greatest most electrifying man in sports entertainment he's great so so do you think um the man formerly
Starting point is 00:13:16 known as uh puff d or what was he puff dad he did he puff daddy combs i'm not i'm not cool enough to know this do you think the diddler will make an appearance on WWE? This is the real question How do you bounce back? Not because Specifically not because Vince McMahon is Currently under investigation Or in a case Regarding sexual assault
Starting point is 00:13:38 He's got his own stuff Let's get this guy To come on over So it's not clear let's get this guy to come on over. And T-Bone does have extradition. So it's not clear he's been detained anywhere. No, I don't even know that Jett's actually his. Everybody's just retweeting it because they want to believe it. But unless we can get hard verification on that tail number being owned by him,
Starting point is 00:13:58 I just say, like, with these big breaking stories, you got to take it with a grain of salt. I mean, he could be, you know, they could be a raid. They wasn't designed to have him arrested just to gather evidence so who knows right he's still well i mean i i gotta i gotta agree with you though tom i don't trust the feds when we have dr phil saying that our tax dollars are funding sex trafficking that these children are coming across the border from cartels and the feds aren't doing anything about that in fact quite the opposite they're facilitating it the only thing the only thing i can assume is this rate is about the
Starting point is 00:14:28 competition and not about actually trying to stop him because of a sworn moral duty they're like hey this is our thing get out of here sean this is our thing that's our business and we will not allow you to participate so us federal government will shut you down maybe i don't think so but like you know 12 million coming across the border and this is the focus of homeland security i i like i said earlier i think that this is i mean obviously if this isn't a real you know this is this is no it's still there oh wait no it's gone it's gone okay if they obviously if they're if they're uh you know if they have the evidence or they're collecting evidence, they have enough evidence to have a warrant and whatever and stuff. But there's no reason to trust the federal government anymore.
Starting point is 00:15:11 Like everybody that is your average person or anyone that's going to have any dealings with the federal government, they're always going to be thinking, is there something that I said or did that has brought this on me? Or are they, or if I, obviously you're going to, you're going to want to have a lawyer before you speak to the police or whatever, the, to the law. But you know, like. Never, never talk to them. If you're ever under investigation. Never, you have to have a lawyer.
Starting point is 00:15:41 Certainly not to the federal government. Never, never do it without the advice of a lawyer it's the best thing uh did he could do the diddler could do is uh is say the government's trying to frame me and and curry support with people who already are skeptical you know what i mean like there are a lot of people who would could be like these are terrible crimes i do like want to take this seriously but the federal government is sketchy and so it does seem like you know you of the doubt. You kind of raise some interesting questions, right? So he's going to, I would presume, consult a lawyer or two. And the lawyers are going to have a kind of, you know, good lawyers are going to have a conservative approach to how to deal with
Starting point is 00:16:16 the federal government. But in a case like this, do you throw those rules out the window and go with the Trump approach saying, you know, they're setting me up. This is all just politics or whatever. Whatever argument you use, it's relatively non-legal, but just raises issues about the investigation itself. He's just got to show up at the next Trump rally, get on stage with Trump. Oh, before you know it. And just throw his support behind Trump and know that if he does that, if Trump gets elected, Trump will go ahead and just railroad the whole investigation.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Let him go. He's fine. That's his way out. He's recording a real quick track called MAGA 2024. Yeah. Totally. That's why he flew to Antigua. He's like, yeah, we were put on this new song and then the feds raided us.
Starting point is 00:17:00 I can't imagine what this is all about. Featuring that, who's a Canadian rapper, Tom McDonald. He'll make an appearance on it and be like yeah yeah i also like trump no in all seriousness though if uh if diddy did try and come out as maga it wouldn't work trump supporters would be like okay epstein jr like nah not interested right like we're not buying it he's got there's like video clips of him being like trump is bad or something. I don't know what his politics are. Speaking of Epstein Jr., so you had these stories come out about Nickelodeon. So they had a half a dozen shows that were sexualizing children for what, a decade? And no one did anything about it over there?
Starting point is 00:17:41 Well, I think the issue— How did we all miss that? I guess adults weren't watching. I think people did. I think people talked about this for a long time i don't i don't think the shows themselves had overt things it was behind the scenes i could be wrong that's what i know well a few of the scenes were really outrageous even on air and that was uh that was kind of clear in some of the documentary i saw i know that uh drake bell is that his name drake bell yeah he made accusations he said he was actually abused by one of the guys significantly abused well some of these young girls uh who was the uh who's the singer who used to be on there's a bunch of them well anyway they had some who selena gomez no it was someone else um
Starting point is 00:18:21 kind of like in that age group uh who was involved in sexualized content promoting these programs maybe it was her and i guess there had been a video of that out there really outrageous and where were the adults and this is a corporation you know where's the responsibility the justice department or los angeles county officials and law enforcement should be investigating that corporation for criminal activity based on what i saw i heard this i don't know if it's true is it true that nick nick cal odio means i don't care for god do you hear that that's what everyone started posting after the uh it says latin nick cal odio is latin for i don't care for god or something like that
Starting point is 00:19:05 someone i don't know google it somebody nickelodeon is a old old timey word isn't it yeah it was a jukebox yeah put another nickel in the nickelodeon but that's what they're claiming now it's like satanic or something so i'm like well i don't know they're nickel what uh n-i-c-k-e-l-o-d-e-o i think you know odio so they've got evidence of sexualization of children the abuse of children But N-I-C-K-E-L-O-D-E-O, I think. Nickelodeo. So they've got evidence of sexualization of children, the abuse of children on these corporate controlled sets. And our friends on line get obsessed with Satanism in the name as if that's the issue. The truth is terrible and they distract from the truth with these silly conspiracy theories yeah well to your point um jeanette mccurdy who's an actress who was one on one of these shows uh who that was produced by dan schneider who's got all these like pending out
Starting point is 00:19:55 or like people are starting to say he was you know very inappropriate especially with the female young female actresses uh she wrote this book that went viral because it's called i'm glad my mom is dead and talked about her growing up in Hollywood and what that experience was like. But she alluded to the experiences she had on set. She didn't come out. From what I remember about it, she didn't come out and say, these are the names, these are who you should go after. But the book was so popular because the title is so flashy. Everyone heard about it.
Starting point is 00:20:21 It wasn't a secret. I mean, I think Amanda Bynes, who has very publicly gone through some mental health struggles also made similar accusations i mean at a certain point people have known for a long time and why we decided now was the time to take them seriously i don't know yeah but i don't think it's one thing to have those allegations out there it's another thing to pull the thread and say well but why where were these people yeah why did no one pull the thread is my question yeah yeah and and why now why why now does it feel okay to do this uh is it because we as a culture have changed to say that we really don't trust hollywood and we want
Starting point is 00:20:54 to see the stuff come out like is hollywood losing influence in a way that makes them more vulnerable i don't know i don't know either i was trying to find the uh the latin brushing up on your latin over there it it doesn't have anything that is uh definitive of it nickelodeon has nothing oh it's nick calo deo down or something like that but that's what it was yeah if you type into google translate nick calo deo it, I don't care about God. Yeah. In Latin. So that's, you know, congratulations. A little fun there.
Starting point is 00:21:30 I mean, it's not the same. Well, you know, yeah, that's where we're at. Let's jump to the next big story. It's good news for Donald Trump. Trump's net worth hit $6.5 billion, making him one of the world's 500 richest people. Oh, wow. You know, making him one of the world's 500 richest people. Oh, wow. You know, we've talked on this show
Starting point is 00:21:48 about how we're so tuned into the news that if we bought stock based on the things we were reading, we'd probably get rich. And then we never do. And no matter how many times we like, we did a bunch of segments like, wow, look at that. Dweck's stock is so valuable,
Starting point is 00:22:04 Trump's gonna be worth $3 billion. And then we just forget about it five minutes later. And then today it jumps 35%, making Trump worth $6.5 billion. And I was like, why don't I just buy the stocks in the news stories that I'm reading every day? So that's what happened. Well, that's standard investment advice. You know, what items you use at your home all the time, buy stocks in it, because you can bet a lot of other people are doing it too.
Starting point is 00:22:26 I'm just saying I should. Are you on True Social? Do you use it? I mean, I'm on it. I don't use it though. I like it. I'm on it. And I'm not just saying I like it because it's a Trump site and all that.
Starting point is 00:22:36 I think it's a good little site. You know, you can say what you want within reason. And it's good. Here's the crazy thing about this, though. They're saying that most of the jump in price of DWAC is retail investors. It's regular people putting in a couple bucks here and there, right? Oh, yeah. The AMC sort of crowd or something else like that.
Starting point is 00:22:57 Well, just Trump supporters. Yeah. So now imagine this scenario where right before announcing they're running for president, an individual launches a company, prepares spec a special acquisition corporation preparing to timing this perfectly with the year before year of their election and then tell all their supporters like oh yeah this we're really we're really excited for this acquisition then all of this these people supporters buy stock spiking the price giving Trump a massive net worth. He can then sell cash out and use that money for his campaign.
Starting point is 00:23:30 It's an interesting way of indirectly fundraising for a campaign. Well, the fact that his name caused this spike, it highlights how significant his legal argument was with the Angoran fight about the value of his brand, which was discounted by the democrat politician judge who tried to destroy his company this shows his brand obviously is worse something uh and it may be elevated enormously because of his run for the presidency but i suspect he'd be a billionaire or have a few extra billion no matter what he was doing with this program. They're saying on Tuesday, the ticker will show DJT for the search. What a fun election year move.
Starting point is 00:24:12 But that's what I'm saying. So this means all of Trump supporters right now are going to buy this stuff. They don't need to donate to Trump because the purchase of a single share drives the value up. So it's an interestingly, I don't know. It's a way to help them indirectly indirectly but it's not just that if they if someone bought uh if someone donated to trump 50 bucks he would have that 50 bucks but if someone buys the share
Starting point is 00:24:37 and millions of people are buying shares it's driving the price higher and higher and higher it may have a bigger impact a much bigger impact trump trump could then offload a smaller portion of shares for a massive amount of money relative to what people actually bought shares for and here's where it gets crazy if trump tells all or i don't even think i don't know if he could do this or what how it would work but trump simply says we're really excited djt is the new stocker it's going to skyrocket where we're thinking it's going to go a lot of money he's going to get non-supporters seeing a 35 increase in one day people who don't even like trump don't care for trump are going to be like i'm going to make money if i buy this i might as well buy it then they are effectively lending their power to trump who can then after six months so just before the election offload a bunch I believe six months is the standard for these special acquisition deals.
Starting point is 00:25:29 He can get a waiver, though, from that, right? Right, yes. Offload the stocks before then. And none of his fans would actually complain about it. They'd say, please, yes, absolutely, Trump, do that. And also, I mean, we were talking about this earlier, but he could take out a loan against the stocks, too, because the value's there, stock and stuff like out a loan against the stocks too, because the values there,
Starting point is 00:25:45 stock and stuff like that. That's what must does, right? He kind of uses his loan as his, his stock value as collateral. So he could very easily come up with the, well, I don't know about very easily,
Starting point is 00:25:56 but I assume that he could very easily come up with a loan to cover what he needs to, to cover in this and to, to fund the rest of his campaign if he wanted to i don't know if it's legal or not i'm saying not saying that he should i could be totally wrong about it i think i don't know i think there is no limit on self-funding of a campaign so i mean theoretically he could he could just be like all right i'll take out a loan against this stock and then right when did when did retail investment become legal that was under obama right with the
Starting point is 00:26:25 was it the jobs act or something oh i think it was legal before then it's just a matter of no i don't think so you had to be an accredited investor there were limits on how you would do it uh you had to be an accredited investor with an income of at least 250 000 no no i could be wrong that's not for stocks right obviously i'm wrong on that one that's for uh direct investment into a startup or something like yeah there may be different rules for like ipos and things like that i think this is just the ubiquity of apps making it very easy and accessible for the average person now we're entering this new it might be that um there was something passed that allowed um because what robin hood and stuff you're not actually purchasing the stock you're they own the stock and you're purchasing.
Starting point is 00:27:06 That's why you can purchase a small piece of it. So I think what you're thinking of is there was an act that made that legal. So go ahead, sorry. No, something like that. I know that maybe you need specific brokerage accounts that operated like bank accounts. Now it's like a really simple app
Starting point is 00:27:18 where you put money in. And yeah, you don't actually own the stock or something like this. But now where we are, think about the fundraising potential for future presidential campaigns where you don't even need you can tell somebody before you even run be like you know you're gonna get a donate to a campaign buy stock in their company on the public market using one of these apps and then later on they could sell against that to anyone who wants
Starting point is 00:27:40 it and you get to keep that piece of the company you keep your value it might encourage more businessmen to enter politics you know the reason trump is part of one of the reasons he's successful is because he has a demonstrated record of success in business that people value and you're seeing that here so other businessmen may say there may be something here for me to pursue as well part of me is surprised that they haven't already come up with some kind of cryptocurrency to do that. They did. There was. There already was a DJT currency. Oh, no, no.
Starting point is 00:28:10 I'm talking. No, FJB. Oh, well, like a Donald Trump crypto. Well, not particularly a Donald Trump, because the concept he's talking about, you can purchase the cryptocurrency, which is funding the candidates. Candidacy is the thought process and then if if the candidate wins the you know in theory the cryptocurrency would become worth more people could you know i don't know that there would be what other function they would have but um what what you're talking about with the donald trump stuff is he was doing nfts and he was calling them trading
Starting point is 00:28:39 cards but they were but he was calling them trading cards so that way boomers would understand what they were because the boomer has no idea he's always been good at marketing exactly orange coin or maga coin whatever he makes yeah and because they were you know because they're nfts they're non-fungible so each one is individually different from the others because of the picture in it and blah blah blah but it was pretty smart marketing marketing imagine imagine this 2028 election every democrat republican candidate is the majority shareholder in a company that is about to be merged into a special purpose acquisition corporation and the platform they get from the national campaign cycle they tell their supporters we're really excited for the launch of our company. So, you know, take a look on your own as like,
Starting point is 00:29:27 let's say you were a mayor of a small town. You ain't going to sell any shares in your stupid little company. You're on a presidential election cycle in a primary or whatever. It's going to boost you substantially. And then you don't care if you win or lose. You are going to get access to a base that you would never have gotten before to buy shares in your company indirectly. You don't got to tell them directly to do it. And that cranks the price of your shares up. And then
Starting point is 00:29:48 you cash out once the campaign's over. Well, I guarantee you, if it's not already in the news stories tonight, the Biden administration, because I know they were sniffing around this whole deal, will launch an investigation into Trump world for being successful. Letitia James or people of her political, you know, her allies politically in state attorney general's offices will also launch investigations. So this is just going to be another magnet for the regime to focus on
Starting point is 00:30:19 in its effort to turn the country into a one party state. I think, I wonder if the strategy then for Trump would be to maximize these vectors, forcing the deep state and people of ill repute like Letitia James to continually go after Trump's businesses to the point where where it's absurd and absurdity, just literally whatever he does, they make some ridiculous claim about overload the system. Yeah, I was thinking earlier today, I was like, you know, if if they're the next if there's a new Democrat administration, whether it be this this next term or two terms from
Starting point is 00:30:52 now, I'm thinking Twitter's done. I'm thinking Musk is going to be thrown out of Twitter somehow by the government. And this kind of point and what happened up against Trump in New York, I think that's a sign, a frightening sign as to what will happen to anyone who crosses the regime. Yep. And they were willing to seize his company. They still could destroy his ability to run for office, all based on a fraud charge. Literally a charge that's based on a fraudulent interpretation or application that's only a state government too yeah and federal government and the feds have invested
Starting point is 00:31:29 i'm not blowing you know i'm not saying elon musk deserves the same sort of protection that or protection that no one else gets uh but what he's doing is so damaging to the left's narratives and their plans for our country. He's going to have to go from their perspective. And I think Twitter is going to end under the next Democrat administration. I think that you're right. I think that the effect of an Elon Musk tweet cannot be overstated i mean any tweet that he he tweets it's you know teens 20s 30 million people you know see everything that he does his reach is extremely yeah it is dramatic and he is brutally critical of the regime uh and the the criticism are almost always uh have significant substance it's not frivolous
Starting point is 00:32:29 it's not not just oh silly stuff um he's talking about the border which is probably the thing that people are most upset with the biden administration about yeah because and its impact on elections which is frightening to the left yes would be exposed exactly the the uh the way that he articulated the consequences of illegal immigration for the electoral college for the congress itself for the the um for the makeup of congress i don't know that the average person is is aware of it but it's certainly not at the top of their mind or the front of their mind but when they hear elon musk talk about it or elon musk tweeted about it they're like oh yeah that really does doesn't it that's how they figure out how congress gets apportioned by the the census and the census
Starting point is 00:33:14 doesn't ask if you're a citizen or not and the people that are you know that are that are doing donald trump wanted to put make that a question everyone was like that horrible racist wanting to know who's here legally as a citizen in the country. Yeah. And the thing is, the argument that you get, and I have said this previously here on IRL, but the argument you get is the people that are illegal don't want to talk to people in government. They don't want to tell the truth and stuff. But the people that are doing the census are absolutely motivated to make sure that the people there know that they're not going to come back with the cops. Because the people that are doing the census want to know how many people are there, the real number, because the more people, the more funding the city's going to get. Or whatever locale that they're that's doing the uh the actual census
Starting point is 00:34:05 so the idea that the incentives are not all lined up for the people to to tell them if they're you know the number of people especially without the the fact that they're not going to ask if they're citizens that's ridiculous to say the incentives aren't there let's jump to the story from nbc news we love nbc news new york appeals court reduces Trump's bond in his civil fraud case to one hundred and seventy five million dollars, a victory for the former president. They also gave him an additional 10 days to post the bond. I'm going to pause there to make sure we don't lose sight of what's happening. It is a small victory in this battle and it is a major loss. Trump should have to pay any bond. He should have to give any money. And what what the government here is pulling off is a big ask. They slam Trump with the most absurd amount of money in a fine in history. These bonds don't
Starting point is 00:34:52 exist. Then when everyone's shocked, they go, okay, okay, fine. How about 175 million? And now we're supposed to go, oh, okay, great. Yes, you get him. Trump's winning. No, it should be zero dollars. The charges are ridiculous. It was a summary judgment. The New York Times lied about this in their in their story about the the the bond. They wrote in a month long trial. The judge said this or that. No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:35:18 See, they're conflating. What was actually going on? The judge ruled summarily that Trump was right. And then verdict verdict first evidence never. Yep. And then they did a different hearing on whether they said that it was fraud. Trump did commit fraud. But did he alter documents?
Starting point is 00:35:36 Now we'll have a trial to make that determination and how much money he has to pay. So in that trial, by giving the summary judgment, Trump was not allowed to say he did not commit fraud and his his lenders were not allowed to say that Trump did not commit fraud. Yeah. And Gorin had, as you say, a summary decision. And this is an attempt by the political courts in New York. They are political. Most you're typically a judge there because you've been selected or elected as a Democrat for the most part. And this is an attempt to kind of pull back a little bit because of the public outrage. You're right. But it is a major slap at Angoran and Letitia James, who were willing to seize a man's private property based on this $454 billion, $440, whatever the number was, a half a billion dollars. And the court just said, in addition to that, you're not seizing anything. But Trump has, New York Times estimates estimates 350 million dollars cash on hand personally and then i think his presidential campaign is what between like like around 50 million or
Starting point is 00:36:50 something 40 something right to take 175 million dollars off the table i know right so so i don't want to fall into that trap where we're like yes no no no they they intentionally threw out a number they knew would get struck down and reduced to a massive number that would be deemed accessible. And what's the basis for this number? Exactly. What is it? Does it sound better than $464 million? Is that the legal standard?
Starting point is 00:37:16 They're making it up as they go along. They're trying to keep Trump off the ballot, out of the election. And this isn't even about clean elections. The left has now decided they don't want elections yep and when you try to jail your number one candidate or remove his name from the ballot that's something putin would recognize the uh the dictator in china would recognize and it's going on up in new york city now there's going to be the brag trial the the crazy trial over the stormy daniels stuff that's going to be in brag trial, the crazy trial over the Stormy Daniels stuff.
Starting point is 00:37:45 That's going to be in three weeks. God, that's actually going to. Well, Leticia James' office after this, you know, victory, so to speak, came out. Her office released a statement saying, well, you know, Trump is still being held accountable for their crimes. You know, she's not even that upset about it, which should tell you that this is really not a victory for Trump. And the process is a punishment too. Yeah, the only way this is a victory
Starting point is 00:38:11 is if there was some kind of slapdown of Letitia James so badly and possibly charges against her for fraudulently prosecuting. I think that's the only way where you could be like, that's a victory. Because if there isn't consequences for this kind of corruption,
Starting point is 00:38:36 then it's only saying, hey, the corruption is actually acceptable. The level of corruption, maybe we went a little bit overboard, but it's still fine that we have a summary judgment and we tried to take the property of of uh you know an american citizen who has clearly not been found guilty uh through any conventional means what's the likelihood that leticia james would ever say zero ethics inquiry zero why are why are no conservatives no republicans doing
Starting point is 00:39:05 anything comparable there should be well uh certainly uh the bidens could be subject to state criminal investigations under the new rules and uh what really frustrates me is the republican controlled house had a chance to give a haircut to people like leticia james or brag defund the smith investigation a target funding for Fulton County and say, if you're violating the civil rights of Donald Trump and other Americans for political purposes and for election interference, you're not going to do it with any federal money directly or indirectly, and we're going to curtail that. They didn't care. They just fully fund the corruption that's going on right now i'm tired of it i'm tired of it and
Starting point is 00:39:46 i you know i appreciate there are some good conservatives on the hill and and uh but i think they're often just oblivious to the damage this is doing to our republic yes we i i think we need state level republicans in uh governor's office ag AGs, attorneys general, or prosecutors to just go after Biden or any of these other individuals in a comparable way. I can only see the strategy here being, let them make Trump the victim. And the Republicans don't want to come off as like what the Democrats are and give a tit for tat. The next honest president should direct the justice department to criminally investigate this whole group of prosecutors for abusing their power to violate the civil rights and interfere with our elections under the color of law yes agreed that's
Starting point is 00:40:36 the only that is like i said that's the only way to get the message to other prosecutors that are politically motivated that this isn't going to be tolerated we have to have a government that doesn't tolerate that this kind of stuff now whether or not this is actually going to happen i i mean i i don't believe that it's going to happen but if we want to see a return to normalcy in the united states the way that you hear people talk about all the time well the very first thing is the justice system has to work properly that means when you commit a crime you get prosecuted if you've committed a violent crime they take you off the streets if you've committed no crime then you don't get prosecuted that's the normal that's what we should that is that is not too much to expect from a justice
Starting point is 00:41:25 department or from a from a justice system and if you don't get that from your justice justice system then you need to revamp it but all ours needs is to get the ideologues out of positions of authority take away their power to prosecute people for political reasons and take away their ability to create uh conditions in which they can fabricate uh charges to to to put people under you know it's it and until that happens we're not going to trust our justice system and a low trust society is a bad society yeah it's really bad i mean this is i think you're right the next honest president should act on the other hand in between then how much damage is done by people
Starting point is 00:42:06 not doing anything to sort of slow this process down? I think, I mean, Letitia James definitely is the lead on this, but there are a lot of AGs who are ideologically driven. She just happens to control sort of the most influential left-leaning state in this sense. Well, I think we've got a rising communist revolution going on in the United States. The Democrats were talking about communists, no, but they are certainly taking their approach
Starting point is 00:42:33 where the rule of law doesn't apply to my political opponents. We can casually try to jail them without consequence. They're communists. Well, the point being, if it walks like a duck. But that's the sort of thing we're facing, right?
Starting point is 00:42:49 And so they try to threaten Supreme Court justices. They're destroying our sovereignty through the border invasion. Antifa's violence, their riots and stuff, that is unquestionably a left-leaning militia that is out to terrorize the population they're planning to overturn the election if trump wins not because there's fraud not because there was a problem in the way the administration uh the elections were administered but because they don't think trump should be president so they want to overturn the election they're planning that and under the doj new rules that's a conspiracy to commit a crime and engage in sedition. What else do we need to say that we've got a political movement in this country that opposes
Starting point is 00:43:32 America? It's not unconstitutional. It's this anti-constitutional approach. It's very dangerous. And I tell you, Republicans in the House who kind of took, you know, basically ignored and have been AWOL on these issues. The base is very upset with them. And I don't know what's going to happen in November. It wouldn't surprise me if they lost completely, even if Trump won. I want to give a shout out to Netflix. Jack Posobiec brought this up last week. Three body problem.
Starting point is 00:43:59 Have you seen any of that? Especially the first. It's worth watching just for the first scene to see what we're dealing with. I'll tell you this. I give the show a C plus. C plus. I've watched every episode. Very slow.
Starting point is 00:44:13 Too much interpersonal drama. Opening scene. Too much dialogue. Well, there's not enough story. I know, I'm just joking. Like, you know, I don't want to spoil any of the show, but I'll give you a general example
Starting point is 00:44:23 when it's like there's a secret agent and he's been captured by the villain. And you're like, oh man, what's going to happen next? And then it cuts to a guy and a woman being like, how was your day? I don't know. I stubbed my toe. And I'm like, ugh. Nax, nax, nax. But the opening scene.
Starting point is 00:44:39 Well, you're not spoiling it. Talk about what the scene is. Yeah, the opening scene is the Chinese culture revolution where they've got a physics professor in a dunce cap and they're beating him, telling him to reject science as they all scream and wave the red books. And he's got to see it. He's got to see it. The wife comes out and she's like, thank you.
Starting point is 00:44:59 Thank you, youth. Through the revolution, I've realized that science is all wrong. And they're cheering for her. Wow. youth through the revolution i've realized that science is all wrong and they're cheering for wow for context for people that haven't seen it they are literally questioning him for teaching einstein's theory of relativity and i've said this before on on the podcast and this drives at home the communists have a total different understanding and worldview And this isn't just like the way they look at things that you're used to seeing every day. It is a basic fundamental difference.
Starting point is 00:45:32 They don't believe that you can be in contact with reality the same way that we can. They believe that if you speak certain words, it's like they believe magic. They believe that words have power to the point where they can speak things into existence, which is represented by the demand that you call a trans woman a woman. Because to them, the words have power. They don't believe in overarching narratives because they want to be able to select a narrative that gives them a position of power in whatever context it is.
Starting point is 00:46:10 So science and things that are fundamental and unchanging, things like the speed of light and the relativity, like the ideas and relativity and stuff, those kind of things are rejected by… A Western construct, right? Yeah, exactly. They're Western constructs. That's why like synchoism was a thing. And we mock it, right? relativity and stuff those kind of things are rejected by a western construct yeah exactly they're western contrast that's why like syncoism was and we mock it right too often we mock it they don't see it as funny no it's perfectly consistent within their worldview and that's why they're immune to our mocking and criticism largely i'm not to say we don't mock it and criticize it but uh they they're not they're not trivialized by it at all i want to give a minor spoiler alert warning in the next 30 seconds there will be a minor spoiler
Starting point is 00:46:52 for the show three body problem because i need to i want to make a point about the writing which is really really good so i'm gonna say more time uh there's a viral clip going around it's all over x because i mean this is netflix Netflix. Right. That's showing. It's like their hot new show. Right when you log into Netflix, there's this big banner. It's like three body problem, which is a reference to like three gravitational bodies and being able to not be able to track them. It's a math problem, I guess. So right when you start the show, I'm like getting ready for bed last week after Jack Pacific mentioned it.
Starting point is 00:47:23 And he mentioned that they depicted the culture revolution. He was, they actually did it, which is crazy for a company to do. And so I'm getting ready for bed. And normally it's like, you know, turn the light off,
Starting point is 00:47:32 turn the TV on, watch for like half an hour or whatever, go to the bathroom. I just stood there right in the middle of my room, staring at the TV. And my girlfriend's like, what are you doing? And I was like,
Starting point is 00:47:41 watch. Holy. It was a, it was like instantly i was like wow it's terrifying now i'll give you a quick spoiler for those that don't want to hear it it's not a spoiler of the whole show general premise point because if you read a synopsis of the show this is probably spoiled for you already anyway so it's a a woman who watches the very opening scene. They kill her father for being a physicist. They beat him to death because he refuses to accept the revolution.
Starting point is 00:48:11 Right. She becomes a political dissident. And then the story, okay, this is like, they tell you this right away, but it is a spoiler. They're working on communicating with extraterrestrials. And she makes contact and and wants to be conquered so the general premise of the show is brilliant a woman who was a victim of the culture revolution and these communist revolutionaries who believe we're going to destroy the old world and kill everybody because we're morally right she immediately adopts the exact same
Starting point is 00:48:46 ideology that's the premise it's it's it's well and and it shows you it's still next next Netflix film in the end because they're sympathetic to that approach oh she saw all these terrible things that are going on in the world in China she reads rachel carson's uh silent spring which was some left-wing polemic that said all of uh the environment was going to collapse within three years and it was like written in 1968 so obviously that wasn't true and so she uses that as an excuse to push for the extermination of humanity so yeah i don't want to i don't want to get too much too much into the spoilers though well yeah well you know it's after two episodes you know what's going to happen right right we're not
Starting point is 00:49:30 we're describing basically the first episode they lay it all out for you but uh i think i think first two episodes it there's a lot of plot yeah i haven't watched the past a lot of a lot of plot holes but the the political writing i do like, but a lot of plot holes. Let's jump to this next story. Daily Mail reports Governor Ron DeSantis signs bill banning children under the age of 14 from using social media. It would require 14 and 15 year olds to obtain parental consent to have accounts. I agree. What say you, panel?
Starting point is 00:50:01 They're 14 years old. Their parents make the decisions. I'm not like, I think it's fine. I think it's weird that the internet became this place where because they decided 12 was the age you could make your own profile, therefore parents shouldn't be involved when kids made a profile at 12. That seems bizarre to me. I don't know where the age came from. Except for maybe I do.
Starting point is 00:50:20 Right. Except for maybe I do. Except for maybe we all know what's going on here. We had Goatsy. We had Lemon Party. We had Meat Spin. And anybody who's been on the internet for a long time knows exactly what those horrible things are. And even knowing those things.
Starting point is 00:50:41 I think that passed all of us. Oh, yeah. Knowing these things, these people who made these companies were like, we think 13 is a good age for the internet. Oh, yeah. Knowing these things, these people who made these companies were like, we think 13 is a good age for the internet. Yeah, okay. We've talked about it amongst ourselves
Starting point is 00:50:51 and based on our judgment, we think that we should have 13-year-olds online. I think that like the, I think parents should be empowered to be involved in their children's lives and I think the internet
Starting point is 00:51:02 is no different, right? In some ways, I think the internet got marketed to so many people it's just this this place where there's information and silly videos and that's obviously not true so they shouldn't have accounts on it seems to me on x they should not have accounts on facebook i don't think there's any way a minor can interact in a way that can be policed even with parental permission uh so i you know i just don't see how that would work you need a dot evu email to make a facebook way back in the day because it was like specifically i could be wrong on this maybe maybe you're right
Starting point is 00:51:36 like when it first started because it was about networking among college students at least then you're over 18 can we address the fact that Twitter's minimum age is 13 and they allow porn? Yep. Yep. But why is it still like this? I thought Elon Musk took over. There should not be. So the fact that the state of Florida has passed legislation for Florida,
Starting point is 00:52:01 that's going to be probably minimally effective at doing anything. It really comes down to the parents, honestly. These kind of things. This is like, you know, what time should your kids go to bed questions. This is making sure that your kids are taking care of their own hygiene kind of things. Or you're teaching them how to take care of their own hygiene kind of things. This is basic parent stuff and if you're not like doing this then you're dropping the ball as a parent i'm sorry if it upsets you but that's the truth there
Starting point is 00:52:35 are certain things that you are responsible for by being a parent and being a parent means you're responsible for your kid and that means what your kid's doing and just because your kid can have a conversation with you doesn't mean your kid is an adult and you don't want to be your kid's friend you want to be your kid's a parent so grow up millennials you guys are awful so i'm wondering how easy it would be for a child to bypass these requirements in order to get an account and i think that's one of the challenges of course different states have proposed different ways around this like some of them you needed express written content from the parents everybody knows that like the the people in in uh the people that have kids that are that are working at these social media companies they have flip phones they all have flip phones their kids aren't allowed on these platforms and kids would find their dad's
Starting point is 00:53:25 magazines but you don't open the door for them there's like a certain age where maybe you talk to your kids you don't leave them in the kids room here you go kid I'll get you a new one every month no no no they go into the 7-11 and I don't know if they still do this
Starting point is 00:53:41 I don't think 7-11 has the magazine rack anymore do they I don't think it has but they used to have it's like they'd have the dirty magazines in the rack I don't know if they still do this. I don't think 7-Eleven has the magazine rack anymore, do they? I don't think it has. They don't. No, I don't. But they used to have, they used to have like, and it's like they'd have the dirty magazines in the rack, but they'd be in black plastic. So you couldn't see them. You just see like the top or whatever. Yet we don't let kids go in and just buy these things.
Starting point is 00:53:57 How have we opened the door on social media for all this stuff? Again, I think it's because when the internet came out, people just did not understand what was being opened up. And it seemed like it was a necessity before people really understood the implications of having access to, you know, everything the internet has, both good and evil, and also allowing the internet into your home, which is like inviting strangers into your home. Well, you know, it's Satan. That's why we have it on the internet. You know, and I don't use this term lightly. These are demonic forces trying to destroy our children, and let's be blunt about it.
Starting point is 00:54:33 There's nothing intellectual about it. It is a dark, evil movement within our country trying to target sexual activity at our kids, trying to justify adult interaction with children of a sexual nature. Absolutely demonic. It's all justifiable in queer theory. This is a topic that keeps coming up because everything horrible is essentially in queer theory. The theory goes that the idea of childhood innocence or the idea of innocence at all must be thrown out false construct because it's a it's a construct there is no innocence and you can see it when you read queer theory papers by there's one by uh little miss hot mess she says that even that's her name i didn't make it up i'm not lying here um she says that kids are kinky or or you know
Starting point is 00:55:27 they say that kids are kinky um gail i think it's gail rubin is wrote thinking sex and that is full of absolute disgusting things she talks about intergenerational uh intergenerational relationships um foucault who's a marxist post-modernist marxist uh he was working to get the french government to roll back the age of consent and at the time it was 15 so this yeah it's disgusting and it goes back to all he was like not enough yeah and even herbert marcus who i've talked about a bunch of times he's a disgusting leftist slimeball that was basically writing papers justifying anything the left wants to do he wrote this book called eros and civilization which is full of just just deviance and it's something that the left does because the left wants to break down rules about purity because it doesn't believe in the rules that anyone makes.
Starting point is 00:56:29 Well, I wonder if the if the I'm pretty sure under an actual communist regime, you deviate, you degenerate, they gulag you and beat you to death. The issue is breaking the family destroys the working order, which allows them to take over. Yes. So they want no them to take over. Yes. So they want no competitor to their cadres. Yes. The theory. The family, education, religion. So the stuff that you guys are talking about, that is the method of allowing the communists to take power.
Starting point is 00:57:02 That's how they break down the family. They break down the structures that are basically the pillars of your society they break those down and that allows them access to power and then they'll go ahead and and start trying to literally tear your society apart because they don't want to specifically the queer theorists because they don't believe in rules they literally just say we don't any rules are are are to be cast off and as as some kind of oppression yeah so they say that uh the law puts the onus on social media companies to enforce the ban and failure to do so could result in damages of anywhere between ten thousand and fifty thousand dollars i say good i think civil is so do parents have a right to sue
Starting point is 00:57:43 if there's a uh they don't fail or who, who enforces it? Is it civilly enforced by parents? I don't know. Seems like enforced by the state. Yeah. A fine for per infraction. And I hope Twitter is Twitter. So I should say X is the first to say, yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:58:01 We shouldn't have that 15 year olds. 14. I don't even know-year-olds, 14. I don't even know if I agree with the 14 to 15-year-olds, to be honest. Unless Elon Musk, it's really, really simple. Any adult content posted on the site should be auto-blurred unless you're logged in and confirmed to be the right age. And I mean, send in your ID for verification. What good comes from having anyone under the age of 18 on these sites?
Starting point is 00:58:24 Nothing. Nothing. And the funny joke is, on the age of 18 on these sites? Nothing. And the funny joke is, on the internet, no one knows you're 14. Now, the original joke is like, no one knows you're a golden retriever or something like this. But how many people are right now, 40-year-old men, 50-year-old men, 35-year-old men and women, and they're arguing with a 13-year-old. And they're posting something like, like the progressive tax system is an oppressive machine and we should switch to a flat tax and they get a response you're an idiot you have no idea what you're talking about they start debating and it's some 12 year old being like yeah it happens all the time being trolled yep for you
Starting point is 00:58:58 has no idea so there's a there's a funny smart enough to troll you though yeah there's a funny meme and it was someone saying, oh, my politics? It's the opposite of forever I'm trolling right now. Welcome to the internet. There's something that I just, there was a point that I wanted to make that I just lost right off, as soon as I was about to talk, so sorry.
Starting point is 00:59:19 It's all the rules being torn away from you. You can't make your point. No, I mean, I think the weirdest thing about social media has always been that it it desires access to your children it desires access to minors and it's like inviting a stranger in your home i mean think of snapchat snapchat is incredibly popular among teenagers what is snapchat it's a messaging app where you talk to someone and it disappears like i'm sorry that's crazy can you imagine if you were like talking to a 45 year old guy and they were like, Phil, can I just on my own privately send disappearing messages to your, I don't know, 12 year old
Starting point is 00:59:51 nephew? You'd be like, get out of here. You creep. So the point that I wanted to make is like me and Tom remember when like when the internet was first, you know, became a thing that you could actually get at access to at your home. Everyone knew you didn't give any information out to anyone on the internet. You didn't talk. You're like, everything was secret.
Starting point is 01:00:11 And you don't let anyone find out where you live. And you're not nowadays, like kids can't keep their butthole off the internet. Sure. But again, I think of all of like influencer culture, which relies on people oversharing for attention and engagement in the pseudo relationship they have with people. I mean, this was the number one choice of career among Gen Z, right?
Starting point is 01:00:32 They all want to be influencers because they think they'll be great. And, you know, live your dreams, I guess. But also, this is maybe not something you should start doing until you're 18. Let's talk about moral degeneracy. We have this story from the Daily Mail. Drea de Mateo blasts conservative commentator Tim Pool after he
Starting point is 01:00:50 called the Soprano star a hooker for joining OnlyFans. Stop taking shots at struggling single moms. I object to this. I'm not a conservative. You should sue them for defamation. That's an insult to conservatives. But they do say Tim Pool is one of the biggest conservative influencers in the u.s okay well i i okay it's
Starting point is 01:01:10 like do i get mad about i'm not a conservative influencer is a weird word it is right so let me tell you guys a story if he's i did a segment on it earlier but uh actually i'll just show you the tweet because they have it here um i tweeted all right all right there's a barstool sports story drea de mateo made more in one month on only fans than on the sopranos i responded women deciding to be hookers instead of having jobs is an arc i didn't expect feminism to take now to be completely honest i thought that was actually kind of a benign tweet i did not actually think i was tweeting anything largely inflammatory, though it did end up getting 4.5 million views. I guess I don't know the weight of my own tweet sometimes. My point was not to insult Drea in any way. I don't care what she does.
Starting point is 01:01:55 And I didn't realize hooker was an insult. It's quite literally what they're doing on OnlyFans. I'm like, you are taking requests from men to post sexually suggestive content in exchange for money. I'm like, just because we've changed the medium by which women can sell sex from the brothel to now over the phone doesn't mean you're not a sex worker. And this is the funny thing. Everyone agrees they're sex workers. And I'm like, so they're hookers. I'm from Chicago.
Starting point is 01:02:20 We just said hooker. You have a very inclusive view of the word hooker. I just thought it was a general term for a woman who engaged in sexual activity for money. But yo, they got real mad. They got real mad. And so now you've got like, there's this woman with like a million followers on Instagram. And she's attacking me. And Drea made this like big long-winded post.
Starting point is 01:02:44 I wonder if it's uh if it's it's like we could we watched it before the show here we go look at this and we just all we could was laugh at the length of the post it's like she says that don't even read it she says i'm fake news i'm holier than thou i'm talking about not things that don't matter to this country uh i'm a shill you know and i and she's like i hope you never end up in a place like me you know where you have no choice but to become a hooker or whatever she no choice no choices and i'm just like wait i was homeless recognizing she's a hooker she didn't say hooker i'm saying oh she said end up a place like me where you choose to do this okay i'm just
Starting point is 01:03:21 like she says tim fool not only did i not know the great tim pool was an expert on feminism and hookers uh yes i didn't realize like i'm gonna go back to what i said because i think this is an extremely important point i don't believe i believe if you go back to the 70s uh late 60s and tell all these women the end goal of women in the workplace will be to get them to all quit and all become sex workers. They'd be like, what? No, they're just disgusting. But there's story after story of I was a nurse, but I make more money doing OnlyFans. I was a star on The Sopranos. I make more money doing OnlyFans. And I'm like, I didn't expect feminism to switch to just sell your bodies online to men for money.
Starting point is 01:04:02 And we've talked about it. this is the end of women in the workplace for a few years until men start using ai to make fake women and do it better than women which is already happening so that's where we're at now and uh i don't know i think look they wanted the right to work and this is what they did with it it's awful i hate it it is straight up like this is 100 percent women doing what women want. And then. I don't want to do. I'm not saying you.
Starting point is 01:04:30 I'm not saying you. Individuals doing what individual women doing what individual women want. And then they don't like the way that someone else characterizes it or sees it or works with it. Well, and she's acting like this is her only option. I know. That's what bothers me. She's like, I have no choices. No choices.
Starting point is 01:04:47 I couldn't, you know, have gotten my real estate license, taking a job. I couldn't have, you know, worked a medium tier job, whatever. Like I couldn't have worked in fast food. This was the only thing available to me. That's just a lie. Like that's not true. The whole point is, is breaking,
Starting point is 01:05:02 is just breaking through like the facade that is held up, though. This is the Lizzo's Beautiful, you remind me of Lizzo, and someone gets upset about that meme. That's exactly what's going on here. It's sex work is real work, and this person's a sex worker, and then you call them the wrong name. How dare you call me what i'm doing and then you're using the wrong so then it's just about the fact that it is a term that is looked at as a derogatory term imagine imagine if the homeland security agency investigated only fans the way they do p diddy oh right because there was one woman on only fans who the day she turned 18 at midnight had a whole bunch of posts appear and everyone went.
Starting point is 01:05:46 That means those posts were made when she was not 18. And that was the point. So I'll read some of this. She says, here's another mean spirited judgment holier than thou mouthpiece who didn't even bother to research his subject before firing off his dis disdain. He sounds exactly like the full blown lefties. He lambasts. Okay. Here's what i think i i i polled twitter uh i said do you think it's fair to call women who sell sexually suggestive photos on only fans hookers 84.3 percent said yes with 34 865 votes i also asked
Starting point is 01:06:21 a few other questions uh so apparently when Drea announced her OnlyFans, she did it with a nude photo. According to numerous news reports, she posts nude photos, and typically, I guess, it's like sexually suggestive but fully clothed. And that's why I'm like, I, I, I, look, you're just, all we're arguing now
Starting point is 01:06:40 is degrees of being a hooker, okay? You're, you're, you're a hooker, and everyone's arguing yeah yeah but if you only are selling the like if men are requesting photos and you send them to him you're not engaging in the physical activity so you you are hooking but is it enough to call okay now we're just arguing degrees what's the what's the point of this i think the outrage here among so many of these women shows similar to what phil's saying it's the hypocrisy it's where they say things like dylan mulvaney is beautiful and you go you're so beautiful you
Starting point is 01:07:10 look just like dylan mulvaney and then they cry and and we've seen a bunch of posts where like a guy was like i made my aunt cry because she's like this liberal and i said she looks like a trans when she got really upset by it like they claim to be like they're beautiful but if you call them that they get angry they claim to be like i had beautiful. But if you call them that, they get angry. They claim to be like, I had to do this because, you know, and I'll go on podcasts and I'll tell everyone I'm doing it. And then I say something semi-tepid like I didn't realize feminism was going to result in women choosing to be hookers. And she loses her mind because they deep down hate what they do. They regret doing it. They're ashamed of it.
Starting point is 01:07:43 Now, many of them are victims of abuse uh it's just terrible and and the only fans and people saying so and so has an only fan account the media just describes it as like a normal thing to do which is another sign of the decline of our civilization like we should treat only fans like it's weird can i read what was one thing real quick so this other woman i guess not a real housewife says tim tim pool can f all the way off for calling my girl drea my queen drea a hooker not that there's anything wrong with being a hooker but that's not what she is and how dare you call some her something in a defamatory way for having an only fans account you dickless mother effer i'm just here being like, I never once had a mean thing about her.
Starting point is 01:08:26 Well, I was talking about this before the show started, this clip between Norm MacDonald talking to Jerry Seinfeld, talking about Kojak, and MacDonald's imitating Kojak, saying the daughter who was killed was a prostitute. And the mother said, well, she was a good girl. And he imitates Kojak. killed was a prostitute and the mother said well you know she was a good girl and he imitates coach he was a she was a hooker yeah she was a hooker but with a heart of gold you know you know i just like this whole argument is so strange to me
Starting point is 01:08:59 personally because like maybe you should just be like yeah tim i'm a hooker and i'm proud of it like why can't you just embrace what you're doing if it's fine? But obviously you don't think it is. And also maybe it's not okay because this is a terrible way to treat yourself and to treat the women around you. It's digital sex trafficking. It's digital sex trafficking and you are going on OnlyFans and making a profile. This is weird. I don't like it.
Starting point is 01:09:24 And again, what bothers me the most is she acted like she had no other options. I want to push back on the digital sex trafficking because this is not the same thing as sex trafficking. Because that's a crime. Like, sex trafficking is a crime that people should go to jail for. What she's doing is not a crime.
Starting point is 01:09:43 People can condemn it. You can dislike it. You can dislike it. You can condemn it. That's fine. You don't have to like it, but it's not a crime. Well, read the federal obscenity statutes. You might think otherwise. All right, no, no.
Starting point is 01:09:56 Okay, listen. First of all, I hate the government, so screw that goddamn obscenity thing, okay? And second of all, like, sincerely, it's like, I'm not, like like i'm the kind of libertarian guy i think it's it's okay if people want to go ahead and do this kind of stuff but society should not lie to itself about what it does and does not approve of and the reaction that people are giving is why is because society is lying to itself if you actually are okay with sex workers, which personally I am,
Starting point is 01:10:26 like I don't have a problem with it, but if you are okay with it, then it's okay. But if you aren't okay with it, it's okay to say, no, I don't think this is okay. But the fact that people are lying about it is why there's this cognitive dissonance
Starting point is 01:10:43 and the reaction that people are having. So if I tweeted, women quitting their jobs to begin sex work is an arc i didn't expect feminism to take you think they would not have gotten mad i do think that there would i think there would have been less of a reaction i do i do think some people would have been upset but i do honestly think that if had you used the term sex worker i think that there would have been less reaction because it wouldn't be nonsense it is i is. I'm not debating that at all. I'm just saying that the way that you articulate stuff does matter, and they're getting upset because they're perceiving it as an attack
Starting point is 01:11:15 because the term hooker has, for as long as we have, at least as long as I've been alive, been associated with a negative connotation. Well, I guess my pushback, Tim, is that you shouldn't be surprised that the feminists or at least the radical extremist leftists who call themselves feminists uh because they've been embracing this concept of sex work for years we're not allowed to use the word prostitute look i have sex work in with the biden administration and human trafficking they don't talk about prostitution anymore. They talk about it in a neutral term, in a neutral way that suggests that in some circumstances
Starting point is 01:11:52 they endorse the abuse of every human being involved in that process, prostitution. So I think I figured it out. Phil, what if I said that she was the director of sexual gratification relief at her independent company? Do you think she would be upset if I said that? No. Maybe I should give her a title. Slide a boss bitch in there and you'd get a pat on the back.
Starting point is 01:12:21 Let's do what George Carlin described when he was, I don't know if you've ever seen that bit about political correctness, where he says, we used to call it shell shock. Now we call it post-traumatic stress disorder. We have to make it longer and more verbose. And I think, I don't know if he mentions invalid and retard.
Starting point is 01:12:39 The things that people used to say that were considered normal descriptive terms became offensive for no reason. That's where we are now. Well, I am not letting this, like, leftist sex positive, you know, movement take the word hooker from me. When I was a kid, we said hooker. Delete it back. It wasn't an insult.
Starting point is 01:12:57 It was just a thing. And it was like there were hookers there. And like there was a noun to describe a person. You can't get mad at a word because it describes you that's it sorry have a nice day well and i think you have to accept that being on only fans is the equivalent to sex work we should stop pretending it's like i'm a fun influencer i just happen to be behind a paywall like no most people are engaged in sex work just accept it and if you're engaged in sex work probably a hooker and we're laughing about her response she's obviously a woman in crisis we should be
Starting point is 01:13:25 praying for her for sure that she's in this situation and feels the need to respond not necessarily you but to respond to whatever crisis she's in by by uh abusing herself through uh this sex trafficking film that's a very dignified and compassionate response. But I will say- You're judicial watch, Tom. You're killing me. It does bother me that she is saying that this is like her only option.
Starting point is 01:13:52 I mean, same thing with the girls who are like, I make more money on OnlyFans than being a nurse. But you're not, you don't have to make more money on OnlyFans. You could be a nurse. You could choose to just be a nurse. You could do something else. You're saying that this is the work i want
Starting point is 01:14:05 to do because i find it either gratifying or easy or it pays big bucks and that's what i want to do but she makes this point where she's saying like i hope you never end up like i am and i was like i was homeless several times not once did i resort to being a a male escort yeah i also hope you never get an only fan the big deal to me I'm going to drive you even further crazy, it's like this normalization of vice. So we've got OnlyFans, and we spent decades trying to keep gambling out of sports. Now gambling has taken over sports in a way that is just extraordinary to me, that I just can't believe, given where we used to be in terms of keeping the Pete Rose scandal and everything, now gambling has a seat at the table in every major sports league in the country.
Starting point is 01:14:52 This player out in Los Angeles has gotten caught up in it. It's this normalization of vice. No good can come from it. And the fact that there's widespread OnlyFans activity online, widespread gambling online, is a sign of dysfunction both legally and morally. Not even online. We've talked about this quite a bit. Where we are right now in the tri-state, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia,
Starting point is 01:15:18 let's quick, okay, Maryland's got, near the East Coast, you've got Horseshoe Baltimore Cas coast you've got horseshoe baltimore casino you've got maryland live casino you've got mgm casino you've got hollywood paraville casino you've got uh rocky gap and so i think that's five casinos in the state of maryland now let's talk about the surrounding areas which are still uh within within two or so hours driving from where we are. You've got those five. Then you've got the Delaware racetrack, which is only like half an hour outside of Baltimore. Then you've got Harrisburg, Hollywood, York, Hollywood. That's eight.
Starting point is 01:15:56 Then you've got Hollywood Charlestown. There are nine physical casinos within a couple hours. Then we can add, if you want to go to Pittsburgh, which is two and a half to three hours. Now you've got Pittsburgh live and you've got, I believe you've got, I think you've got a Hollywood. I could be wrong, but let's just say 10. 10 casinos. Then on your way heading up north towards Pittsburgh, about two hours from here, you also have Lady Luck. There are 11 or 12 casinos within two or so hours of driving from where we are right now.
Starting point is 01:16:25 12. And you're not even counting Atlantic City. Oh, Atlantic City, I think is three and a half hours or four hours driving. So it's a bit out there, but that's a day trip. You leave Saturday morning, you spend the night, you leave Sunday night, you're back home. An Atlantic City. Now, I can tolerate Atlantic City in terms of the argument of vice. We have Vegasgas we have
Starting point is 01:16:45 atlantic city now you kept them local they were vacation spots you went to for your vacation to engage in in your vices you drink you party you gamble but then you go back and say okay we're going to get back to being productive now it's just everywhere that's right and it's all taught and interestingly it's all targeted at young men both vices we're talking about the whole uh you know the gambling online operations it's all the marketing seems to me directed at young men and only fans like you know my guess is a broad marketing campaign someone super chatted that i should tweet the sex work version well i tweeted i quoted the exact same story and i, women deciding to engage in sexual activity for strangers is an arc I didn't expect feminism to lead to. I hope that clears things up.
Starting point is 01:17:32 Although I do believe they'll still get very, very angry that I referred to them as engaging in sexual activity for strangers, which is a fact. Everyone can cry some more and then we'll all move on with our lives. Where are these people's fathers? I'm sorry. This is ridiculous. God help America. How did we get to this point where we have become just vice? Like, all of these casinos popping up really is shocking.
Starting point is 01:17:57 I think it's because we're a society that lacks community and lacks religion. Right? Like, there is no expectation that you would live to a high standard in fact we're told always live and let live it's fine don't be judgmental everything's okay there's no uh collective morals that say hey there are things we're against and we don't like them and we don't want to encourage them i like liberty i think you should be able to do things that you want to do on the other hand i think that we as a society would say like hey if you're on only fans we're going to judge you for it we think other hand, I think that we as a society would say like, hey, if you're on OnlyFans,
Starting point is 01:18:25 we're going to judge you for it. We think that's not a good move. Didn't the owner try to like shut down porn on OnlyFans? They started getting scared at how much porn was popping up and they tried to shut it down, but then the investors revolted.
Starting point is 01:18:36 They were like, we're rich. I know they've tried to. Burn the world to the ground. Moral degeneracy makes us money. Yeah. Yeah, I think moral moral identity does profit and that's ultimately won out i mean that's one of the reasons i think we're sort of this this identityless culture which is that the dollar reigns everything and saying like hey like again
Starting point is 01:18:55 i go back to this example of the nurses that are like i make more money on only fans like yes but you pay with your dignity homie like is this the price that you are willing to say it's it's better to make more money i'd rather be rich than to be able to look at myself in the eye look if i tweeted this and they responded with yeah that's kind of crazy right well that'd be the end of it and it's a failure of christian leadership in america i mean because america it used to be that the christian moral view in these topics meant that laws reflected that. Christianity doesn't have the balls to defend itself. And Christians in this country have been attacked and belittled by the culture, made fun of for even thinking about these issues in terms of morality, and they don't even engage anymore.
Starting point is 01:19:37 And I'm in the movement. I know a lot of Christian evangelicals. They've been always very concerned about the gambling, but the money just overwhelmed and overwashed them. And too many Christians are embarrassed to say, this is wrong, should be illegal for all sorts of reasons, including moral reasons. And that is a valid basis for law. The left can do all sorts of laws based on their morality. Conservatives aren't allowed to. The idea that society must celebrate things like sex work or like vice, right? So celebrating drinking, celebrating doing drugs, celebrating gambling, celebrating all that kind of stuff is a terrible terrible idea there is nothing wrong with having a society that says or it should be desirable to have a society that says
Starting point is 01:20:34 families are good right families with a mother and a father and kids that's good because that's the foundation of a society so the resources should be poured into making those things more attractive right that's what that's what if there's if the government is going to have if the government is going to cheerlead for anyone if the government's going to cheerlead for anyone it should not be cheerleading for the lgbt group uh lgbt lobby just because that group of people are not making more people right they're not making more of the society so if the government's going to have an opinion it should be the the traditional family opinion right it shouldn't be the fringe edge of society we need
Starting point is 01:21:19 to center and make the the thing that to all my libertarian friends i'm sorry the government can't be neutral in areas of morality i that's what i'm saying i'm saying this i'm saying i'm i'm i'm in agreement with you i don't think that we should be tossing people in jail for using drugs and ruining lives because it tends to ruin lives way more than it does to debate is about the sanction and what but i think we should have a strong enough social fabric that says like there are things we don't accept. Like the idea that like, a man would abandon his family, right? Yes. Like, I think that would be bad.
Starting point is 01:21:48 I agree, but it shouldn't. Just so long as it doesn't turn into throwing people in jail because that only adds more problems. You add police. Maybe it means throwing people in jail. But if you don't want a government solution. Sex traffickers.
Starting point is 01:22:00 Again, you're talking about an existing crime, Tom. Gamblers. I'm not saying that we should not not enforce existing laws and none of what i'm talking about is sex trafficking stop it like i said your judicial watch come on but i think the thing is if you have a government if you don't want a government punishment if you don't want it to be like if you are if you abandon your family you could go to jail or whatever which there were laws in states like that right yes if you don't
Starting point is 01:22:28 want that then you have to have some kind of reinforcement somewhere and it has to be social which right now to have a strong cultural idea of what we think is acceptable culture yes and above law and politics 100 always and always 100 and that's why the problem that we're the problems that we're seeing are because of— They absolutely do. It's all they do. The reason why Christians have lost so much ground is because they gave culture to the left. The left then made it uncool and unacceptable to be Christian.
Starting point is 01:22:56 I guess my point is, for the left, politics rules everything. Yes. Power politics rules everything. And they put politics into the cultural spaces to change what was allowed because they know that you can pass a law saying you can't eat cheeseburgers on Sunday and then they make a bunch of movies of people eating cheeseburgers
Starting point is 01:23:14 on Sunday and then everyone's like I eat cheeseburgers on Sunday and then all of a sudden the moral values of whatever it may be don't matter because no cop is willing to enforce the law anymore. We have tons of laws in the books today that are unenforceable. Like the famous blue laws, the joke one we like to reference is women can't go skydiving on Sunday in Florida,
Starting point is 01:23:32 which I think is not a real law or whatever. It's a joke, but I think it might have been a real law at some point. What cop is going to stand near the landing point for skydivers, wait for the woman to land, and they go, ma'am, you're under arrest. It's never going to happen. Why landing point for us for skydivers wait for the woman to land and go ma'am you're under arrest it's never going to happen why it's culturally unacceptable the judge would say you're insane there are there are still areas of chicago that are under prohibition and people don't even know this because everybody drinks and nothing is happening because no cop is going to walk into a bar and be like prohibition yes, this neighborhood is under, they just don't even, that doesn't even happen.
Starting point is 01:24:06 Yeah, and although we should also recognize, to Phil's point, the widespread availability of alcohol, it destroys parts of our society. And, you know, we just willingly accept it as if there's nothing we can do about it. It's just like the rain. And that's not, it's never the case. It should never be the case i think this trope of uh like the stodgy dad who doesn't want to dance and the kids who want to go dance is how you you it's it's part of this leftist indoctrination i mean there has to be a kevin bacon footloose well the left says everything the movie the movie makes the parents have to be bad for saying no dancing right but the moral of the story is rigid social order bad go have fun and do whatever you want but that's just
Starting point is 01:24:52 one degree it results in uh we have a great super chat where someone said you know you're an idiocracy when you drive down a highway and half the billboards are weed gambling and lawyers well you know i've been one thing i've noted on the Metro in D.C., and I do take public transportation, certainly recently, is the amount of pot in the air.
Starting point is 01:25:11 Everyone's smoking pot on the trains. And it occurred to me that if they were smoking cigarettes, we'd probably have federal troops on the train. But you light up fire
Starting point is 01:25:21 on a train for pot, we're afraid to enforce the law. Well, you only damage your lawn by smoking cigarettes. Oh, I've seen a guy get thrown to the ground for eating a hot dog on a bus. And the people started getting mad. How dare you? But when it comes to weed,
Starting point is 01:25:36 everyone's attitude is, weed's not so bad. We shouldn't put people in jail for it. No, no, no, smoking, smoking, dude. I don't care what you're doing. Don't smoke or eat on the train or the bus. Those are the rules. In D h street which was the the dc government spent billions of dollars tens of millions of dollars trying to rehabilitate since it was burned down
Starting point is 01:25:54 during the riots um you know after martin roose the king and such uh now is is destitute and it's famous for having I think about 20 or so marijuana dispensaries on the strip. And they wonder why it's attracted the wrong crowd. See, that's the challenge with marijuana legalization because I don't believe it should be illegal but decriminalization leads to
Starting point is 01:26:20 a massive industry of people engaging in bad behavior. I kind of run hot and cold on it. I just don't see how legalizing it works. It just can't work. And it will never work. What do you mean by working?
Starting point is 01:26:35 In the sense of not producing societal effects that require its prohibition. Yeah. That ultimately require its prohibition. Yeah. That ultimately require its prohibition. I mean, A, the health effects of marijuana are much more significant than have previously been acknowledged. The type of marijuana now widely available is still much more powerful.
Starting point is 01:26:57 And plus, the black market has actually benefited from the legalization of marijuana because other drugs that aren't legalized have increased in value. Yep. And they're still involved in the marijuana market anyway. Every day another grain of sand is added to the heap of moral degeneracy in this country. And all the libertarians are saying things like, why shouldn't we be allowed to gamble? Why shouldn't we be allowed to smoke pot?
Starting point is 01:27:25 There is no happy medium. There is no point of total freedom. There is no, we found the balancing point between freedom, security, and morality. It doesn't exist. Would you want to live on the strip in Las Vegas? Have you ever been on the strip in Las Vegas? It is one of the grossest displays of human behavior and vice you'll ever see i don't i don't know if i agree with that like what what are you what are you referring to uh the pushing
Starting point is 01:27:52 drugs uh that's true sex work the monty the uh it's gross it's gross yeah fair point no one no one wants to live in the middle of las vegas they may want to work around las vegas who wants to live in the middle of Las Vegas. I was thinking more so it's around Las Vegas. But who wants to live in a gambling house? The thing that kind of surprises me or that I can't wrap my head around Vegas is the fact that they try to make it more of a family experience while still having – I mean, it's not as seedy as it was in the 70s, sure, or early 80s. But still, the attraction to Las Vegas is gambling, partying, drinking, and I suppose shows. But really, you shouldn't be bringing your kids to Las Vegas. I mean, you want to bring your kids to Disney. That's one thing. I i'm not maybe not now i think it's just that las vegas doesn't want to miss out on like you know the families well it's corporations it's big it's big corporations are still potential
Starting point is 01:28:55 customers and clients so we have to have some place for them in every city even if the city is generally marketing all of its entertainments towards you know adults over 21 let's say yeah i mean the the attraction in vegas is still largely for adults it's not like there's children things that are designed specifically for children but they do try to make the you make it at least family enough so that way parents that are questionable parents will bring their kids to vegas while they party i guess well there's there's there's uh the pool area and there's areas for kids atlantic city actually turned someone turned one of the casinos into an arcade so now the family can bring the kids to atlantic city and which i still think is probably
Starting point is 01:29:36 not good like the you shouldn't be bringing your kids to vegas bring your kids somewhere else like and and there's again i'm not i'm i'm i have no problem with people that go to vegas and party like i'm you know i'm i'm not necessarily opposed to adult gambling i'm not i'm not saying that but it's you're not expanding it so that it becomes like something you we have 12 casinos to choose from if we leave saturday in the morning we're like oh look at one of the 12 casinos that's bad yeah especially for impoverished areas it is something no no mgm national harbor the highest grossing casino outside of vegas uh beating even atlantic city is insane it's 900 million dollars just south of dc for that one but you are also talking about maryland live dc other areas that
Starting point is 01:30:20 i would just say like it is not great for impoverished areas to have casinos, right? But the only impoverished area is probably Charlestown. Churches can still run. Where there is a casino. And that's the one out of 12. So you could argue Baltimore, I guess. That's a downtown. Well, I know there's a ton in Wheeling.
Starting point is 01:30:37 Wheeling's impoverished in West Virginia. I mean, it's not. Well, West Virginia is impoverished. Yeah. And West Virginia has five casinos. Virginia and some parts of Ohio. No, they may have four now. I'm just saying, like, it's...
Starting point is 01:30:47 Well, the government's involved in gambling operations. I'll tell you about West Virginia. The problem with West Virginia is the hot spots. Hot spots, I don't know if everyone's... What do you mean by that? So it's a common thing in West Virginia. They are basically mini casinos. You'll go to a building that's maybe like 400 square feet.
Starting point is 01:31:07 Typically, you'll find a woman behind the counter selling beer. And it's just like a refrigerator with a stack of Coronas. And then there's 10 slot machines. And people go in there and they dump their paychecks and leave. Not a good thing for the state. I suppose the state of West Virginia is happy because it generates tax revenue for them. But having hot spots all over the state, it is not a good thing. What do you do?
Starting point is 01:31:28 Do you say you're not a lot? Look, morally, I think you can do whatever you want with your money. It's your money. If I want to make a wager with Phil about, you know, a coin flip, that's our money to choose how we spend it and what we spend it on. It's insane to me that the government would be like, no, you allowed to spend your money on i agree churches should still be able to run bingos but then you end up with in in any given area there's like within i mean we talk about casinos you go to west virginia and there's going to be like 12 hot spots they call them just surrounding you in every possible direction
Starting point is 01:32:01 yeah and these are miniature casinos. You go in. Some of them are nice. I got to be honest. There's one we went to. It was really, really nice. They had like a really nice logo. And it was like an Ace of Spades.
Starting point is 01:32:12 It was called like Ace of Kates or something like that. And you go in. It's a cafe. And then there's a row, a nice carpeted area with a row of slot machines. And I'm like, my cafe part's nice. You know where they get away with this stuff is because they say what's the difference between an instant scratcher and a pull on a slot machine nothing so how can you ban one not the other the issue is the speed at which you can crank a slot machine by slamming
Starting point is 01:32:35 the button over and over again and people will just burn through money like crazy i'm not saying people shouldn't be allowed to do it i'm just saying our society is in moral decay because people want to do it recognize the addictive nature and dangerous nature of it and it's got to be controlled we talk about regulated and um get the government out of it we'll have less of it that's for sure i mean the thing well that i agree about that but the the situation really is we need society to stop you know glamorizing things that are vices and we need society to start valorizing what you would consider wholesome behavior valorize people that that start families you want to uplift you know people that have three four kids and and that should be something that the government if it's going again
Starting point is 01:33:25 if it's going to have a position it should be a pro-life position it should not be a pro uh pro unique family or or you know individualist perspective it should be something that is pro-family and pro-community and and if you do that, then you'll go a long way in cutting off the incentives for things like OnlyFans and the things like gambling and other vices. You need shame. You do. You do. But shame is not the government. So if it's –
Starting point is 01:34:01 That's social. Yeah, that's social. We need society that says these things are good, these things are bad. Which is exactly what I'm talking about. You know, in reference to the OnlyFans things, a lot of people are responding, saying shame the women on OnlyFans. And I'm like, I did not even do that. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:34:14 Like I didn't even have that line. I'm just pointing it out. But I do think a society needs to have a healthy amount of shame to, to shame people who do things that are bad, but they should be allowed to do if they really want to. There should just be a record, like recognizing you are doing something that we disagree, like we think is bad.
Starting point is 01:34:33 You can do it though. For them too. I mean, you're not, I don't believe, you know, shame versus not telling this actress what she's doing is not a good thing. That has to be something we have to be downright. I didn be something we there's anything wrong with it well yeah but i was doing it well you suggested strongly by
Starting point is 01:34:51 using a negative word i didn't think hooker was negative so even even if that's what it kind of is though but if you would recognize hooker is a kind of a word that i don't i i if i called someone a hooker- But sex workers are in the same category, and they claim they like it. So I'm just like, I don't know, what's the difference? Women refer to each other as, I'm going to curse on you, but women refer to each other as bitches all the time in a friendly way. Why don't they just start calling each other hookies in a friendly way?
Starting point is 01:35:17 But it's not that. What's the difference between sex worker and hooker? Yo, listen, when it comes to about- One has a moral negativity around has a moral uh negativity around it no no no there's not that's not because if you listen let's go listen to sexy red's newest single absolutely right because all all she does they all they do is talk about being like they're literally talking about selling their bodies they're they're sex workers and sexy red is a is a hot new rapper. So the idea
Starting point is 01:35:46 that this woman... I have to look her up. I'm sorry. Well, I mean... I don't think she's awesome and hilarious. We're going to go to Super Chats.

We do everything manually because we're not a super big company. The reason we do this
Starting point is 01:36:30 is to kind of screen because there are a bunch of weirdos and haters who try to come in and try and waste our time. But we're going to read Super Chats now. We got Clint Torres says, Howdy, people. Mitchell Black says, Howdy, Clint. And Waffle says, Howdy, Clint and Mitchell. I strongly encourage everyone to
Starting point is 01:36:45 send two dollars every time you'd like to say howdy to each other all right shane wilder says tim i want to commend you on your eloquently worded discourse this morning on x about digital prostitutes i've been saying this for a while i agree and i did i did a long segment on it talking about how like is prostitutes negative or positive what word is that is that prostitutes neutral depends on who says it so so the issue is historically morally being a prostitute being a hooker is frowned upon so the reason why someone would say the words have a negative connotation is because the act itself is viewed negatively they say sex worker because they're trying to isolate what they're doing which is prostitution and hooking from the historical
Starting point is 01:37:30 words which people associate in a bad way it is post-modernist word definition garbage trying to shift someone's perspective based on changing the words but it describes the exact same thing you aren't only fans to raise sex worker. Sex workers are hookers. That's just what they are. The worker part actually is a connotation to the proletariat. So like they're members. It's common. You can just tell.
Starting point is 01:37:54 That's right. Worker. Jose Alfredo Diaz says, Christ is king. Practice espanol. Tim Cristo es rey. Is that how you say it? That one, I've passed over that whole Christ is king thing. Christ is S. Ray. Is that how you say it? Tybo says... That one, I've passed
Starting point is 01:38:06 over that whole Christ is King thing. Christ is King. Jesus' second coming is going to be a real bloodbath if you are not saved. I believe that's literally in the Bible, though, isn't it? Jason Dixon says, Tim, Diddy was caught being gay and doing crimes. That's right. Here we go.
Starting point is 01:38:22 Knee says, Christ is King. Look up Moloch ritual, July 1933. Interesting. All right, all right. What are we looking at? Daniel Domesec says, hey, Tim, if you search Stargate Atlantis first strike nuke, it's a great clip to show the Merv. Oh, cool. Stargate Atlantis.
Starting point is 01:38:38 I didn't watch Atlantis. I watched SG-1. That was an awesome show. You guys ever watch SG-1? No. I've seen it. It's on this it's on cable we can.
Starting point is 01:38:47 Yeah, yeah. They have it on Comet. Jason Dixon says, over here waiting for Tim to defend Diddy with all the police corruption and horrible abuse of power. I know my rights. This Friday we're having a couple cops on. Cool. And we're going to talk with active duty police officers. So that'll be fun. And these were guys, I guess, they
Starting point is 01:39:03 literally showed up to one of our staffers house like, Tim, you should talk to us. And we were like, he should, you're, you're correct. Come on the show. Ask him about Ashley Babbitt shooting. Yeah. I mean, there's, there's a lot of, there's a lot of issues with the, uh, there's, there's a lot of issues that I think aren't necessarily about the police. When we talk about police, it's about human nature and what humans do when confronted with these circumstances. And historically, what we see is no matter who you are, there is a tendency, not every human does this, but when it comes to authoritarianism, the people in military law enforcement say, I will, I will march in lockstep with the machine committing the atrocities because I don't want to be on the other side of that stick.
Starting point is 01:39:45 All right. King Apollyon says DJT to the moon tomorrow. That's right. There's going to be a stock called DJT. That is absurd. You just couldn't write the 2024 election. You know what I mean? You just couldn't. Ian
Starting point is 01:40:01 Morrison says, Tim, Drea de Mateo was blacklisted for refusing the vax she's pretty anti-woke and went to only fans just to interact with fans i don't believe she does anything explicit and nudity she'd be a good guest well my friend she probably would be a good guest but you're incorrect uh according to her friend on instagram she launched it with a nude photo on instagram and according to uh even the story we were reading i can't show the photos they posted they are not that uh one of the articles has explicit has outright nudity but she's like got her legs crossed and she's covering herself and it says it's on our only fan so i don't whatever
Starting point is 01:40:35 she's like tim didn't do his research i looked all this stuff up i just didn't know if it was fair to say like some people might not refer to that as hooking or whatever and uh some of the photos are just straight up pictures of her boobs in a bikini and i'm like you're just posting like some people might not refer to that as hooking or whatever and uh some of the photos are just straight up pictures of her boobs in a bikini and i'm like you're just posting sexually suggestive content for money like that's literally what you're doing you announce it with a nude and one of the photos is her and another woman with their hands against the wall pushing their butts out in their underwear and i'm like okay, come on. All we're doing is arguing the degrees at which you are engaged in sexual activity for money. So I am sorry, Ian.
Starting point is 01:41:09 No, she does have those photos. I can't show those photos on YouTube. If we were to actually show those and be like, here's what she's doing, we would get deranked and demonetized for adult content. And possibly the show could be age restricted to 18 plus. That's what might happen. And so call everyone well we didn't show that we didn't show the photos do you want to restrict it to 18 plus given our prior conversation talking about i don't think there's any issue with talking about the news
Starting point is 01:41:37 just ask it i mean when i was a kid i'd turn on fox news they talk about rapists and murderers and blood splattered all over the street so the news is the news showing untoward you know degenerate behaviors and stuff i think should be adult only but i don't think probably an r-rated discussion sometimes don't you think i think when it comes to an issue of like we are discussing the news then we do have people email saying please don't swear sometimes my kids are around but that's for a parent to decide if they want their kids to hear about news and politics we're like you know talking about what they're what they're engaging with a new show there should be no age restriction i understand but parental parents should be uh watching over it my issue with twitter is not that we should the only reason i agree with this and assigning this bill
Starting point is 01:42:21 is because the companies aren't doing anything to enforce the law the way they legally are required to do already so twitter x should any adult content anyone who posted any adult content it should be blurred out you can't see it the only way to see it is if you're verified that's the that's the content that section 230 specifically authorized is the removal of yep yep yeah uh it is tough with the news though because there is a fine line between where parents will decide and whether or not someone's posting or or doing untoward things but i think the news is is the hard limit and news organizations typically had the discretion of like there's certain things we won't say or won't show for the sake of you know public decency right let's go let's grab another super chat william kelly says diddle you this deal you that who's afraid of the
Starting point is 01:43:13 diddler's bat that's the set that comes to mind hearing the diddler well okay jacob polly says did p did he do it phil it depends on what the national definition of did is anyway phil for president of congress or phil for president or congress please phil you can just yell scream at them during every bill or meeting and vote no in everything please no that means yes he wants he wants to be in congress you can see in his eyes but he's being humble what district would you run what? I would actively railroad my campaign. There's no way I would ever, ever,
Starting point is 01:43:50 ever. Elect Bill. I would never serve in Congress. G says, bro, Tulsi is going to be VP. She basically confirmed it last Friday. Well, I know that she's on the short list apparently, right? For Trump's VP pick. I think that would be great. I don't know that she is the right choice. I don't know. Everyone's like, who should he pick? I'm like, right? For Trump's VP pick. I think that would be great.
Starting point is 01:44:05 I don't know that she is the right choice. I don't know. Everyone's like, who should he pick? I'm like, man, I really don't know. But if he did pick Tulsi, I'd be very happy. I think she's a good choice. What do you think, Tom? I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:44:14 I don't think she's pro-life. She's not. So I think it would be a bad choice. But the point is to get voters that Trump can't already reach. So if we're talking about a post-liberal, the Democrats have gone too far candidate who is appealing to the likes of Elon Musk and, you know, people who are not necessarily fully informed, I think Tulsi Gabbard does cast a wide net on that regard. I think Republicans tend to lose elections, I'm putting on my political analyst hat, because they don't get enough Republicans out voting.
Starting point is 01:44:41 I agree. And conservatives voting voting so he needs to ensure that everyone who's a part of the coalition has a reason to come and vote for him and not want to suppress that coalition in any way and i think having a pro-abortion candidate on his ticket would suppress the pro-life vote in a close election i don't think it would i i think it's possible you're right i'm not i'm just saying i think biden is so who knows right but but i i think it's possible you're right i'm not i'm just saying i think biden is politics so who knows right but but i i i would be cautious about uh and that's the trick for for trump is how how is it he kind of talks about abortion in a way uh that makes uh the full coalition comfortable i do think it's uh frustrating for me how many republicans Republicans refuse to articulate their moral positions out of fear that people don't agree with them.
Starting point is 01:45:28 And I'm just kind of like, if you think people don't agree with you, then stop trying to win power, I guess. Like, the argument should be, I am right, and if only they heard the correct argument, they would agree with me. But if you genuinely think you could not present your idea to someone and they would agree with you, then you just know you're wrong. The issue of abortion, particularly too many Republicans, keep trying to dance this moderate ground instead of just coming out right, being like bad at all across the country, bad at all. And then arguing why they think it should be permanently banned in all circumstances. Seamus Coughlin has no problem saying that he says, here's what I believe. Here's why I believe it. It should be banned completely in all circumstances. Seamus Coughlin has no problem saying that. He says, here's what I believe. Here's why I believe it. It should be banned completely in this country. You know, you raise an interesting point. They might want to think about saying, I believe life begins at
Starting point is 01:46:14 conception and we should think of ways to protect that life. And we're going to disagree, but we all agree that there's a life at issue here. And I think that's where most people are. And they'll debate whether to have it at six weeks, four weeks or ban it entirely. But most Americans want restrictions on abortion. If they can get that. I'm not trying to argue abortion right now. My point is. But politically, I think you're right about being forthright on your views because people
Starting point is 01:46:37 don't like people who aren't forthright in their views. And when they don't present my position is abortion X, then regular people never hear the argument. How could someone actually agree with your argument if you don't give it to them? Well, there is the fact that the people on the left and people that are pro-choice have spent decades, multiple decades, lying about what their position is. They sold it as safe, legal, and rare, and it was never going to be birth control. It was only for emergencies and et cetera, et cetera. That was what essentially the conservatives or the moderates had agreed to, I guess. Not regular conservatives.
Starting point is 01:47:15 That's what the moderates had agreed to in the 90s. It was safe, legal, and rare, and that's what essentially convinced enough people to say, well, okay, maybe. And then after that, it was all downhill it was just oh shout your abortion let's have a party i'm gonna i'm gonna have i'm gonna literally celebrate my fifth abortion you get people behaving like that and then you know you're now it's a death cult i mean vice president harris first vice president first president or vice president to go and visit an abortion clinic and the clinic she uh went and visited kills unborn babies up until nearly the sixth month of pregnancy and helps women kill them
Starting point is 01:47:52 afterwards somewhere else this is where the left democrat party is abortion on demand through the entire nine months of pregnancy paid for with your tax dollars there's got to be restrictions we'll grab some more stanford says it's pronounced antigua there you go not antigua it's antigua grandstanding and hot dogging says i was double charged by your website for several months i emailed the customer service team about it they refunded me within a day or two great service i'm so happy with their work that i want to give the money back buy them lunch on me please will do in fact uh we do that frequently last week we did lunch like four days out of the week basically um when if my girlfriend is not around i'm either dipping bacon into cheese sauce or ordering food we all know when allison's gone because tim will be like what do you get okay food's coming today it's great yeah
Starting point is 01:48:41 i was like i i ordered like this massive box of chinese food and so everyone's like ah allison must not be here because allison cooks real good food today we had uh i had ground turkey with cheese and onions cajun spice and white rice like very healthy tracking my macros but if she's not here it's like it's like taco bell's here guys see you allison well there was because there was a good pizza there was the one day where i was like what did you have for dinner I was dipping bacon in cheese sauce and it's like
Starting point is 01:49:07 oh geez it's like yeah it's like girl dinner but it's Tim dinner you got your protein you got your dairy yeah but so we do buy lunch
Starting point is 01:49:16 and so especially every Friday every Friday we do sushi for everybody here at the Cast Castle and we are a couple weeks away from the new studio.
Starting point is 01:49:27 Really excited. But I have news. We are postponing the April 6th event. It is not open to the public. It is our official launch party skate jam contest. If you're a skateboarder and you have the skills to pay the bills or you know someone who does and they would like their share of thirty five thousand dollars the email is contest at boonies hq.com we're going to be inviting a small group of people who send us their skateboard demos and show that they have the
Starting point is 01:49:57 certain skills for the contest it is ten thousand dollars first prize for the the vert wall uh drop in 11 feet of vert to a five foot transition if you know that if you know what that means $10,000 first prize for the vert wall drop-in. 11 feet of vert to a five-foot transition, if you know what that means. But maybe many of you know people who are good at skateboarding who might consider the challenge. It's on our Instagram, at boonieshq. We're moving it to April 20th because we have, there's a couple things we have to do. We have to, I don't want to say too much for security reasons but the first the most important thing is we're morons and we didn't realize there's a big event called tampa pro on the same day so a bunch of our pro skater friends were like that's impossible you'll never get anyone
Starting point is 01:50:34 to come out like i was like oh dude i can't believe we did that but uh we're all we also want to take the opportunity to set up some more stuff and uh get some like emergency backups stuff installed and stuff so i don't want to say too much, so I'm saying stuff a lot. But yeah, contest at Boonies HQ if you have the skills to pay the bills on a skateboard. And we're not... We just don't want a bunch of pros coming. We want everybody to get a chance.
Starting point is 01:50:55 But we can only invite like five people, so... It is what it is. Let's grab some more Super Jets. Piers Lort Phillips says DJT is good, but I would have gone with TDS to further rub the loonies noses in it. I think it's a really good idea, but I think the reason they're going with DJT is because they want non supporters to actually buy it.
Starting point is 01:51:16 Think about this. Who will donate to Donald Trump? A supporter, a strong supporter. Even people who want to vote for him don't donate. What if there's regular people who want to get rich quick? They might end up buying several thousand dollars worth of DJT stock, which will pump up the value because they think they're going to make money on it. Trump doesn't need their support. He needs their greed. Bushido says, Tim, I'm a former law enforcement officer.
Starting point is 01:51:40 LEO aren't going to make a ruling on scene based on either party statements. Landlords need a writ of restitution from court. You realize, good sir, that what you're saying is if someone breaks into my house in the middle of the night with the intent of killing me, they need only put down the open, calmly wait for the police to arrive and then say, I live here. And the cops are going to go, oh, I guess we can't remove the burglar. Burglar lives here. He said so. That's what's happening with squatters
Starting point is 01:52:05 do you think we'll see a big push to change squatter laws in this country because i do feel like florida's doing it right florida is and i feel like that could be a lead for other countries but it's a story i see in the news a lot more frequently but i don't feel like i see the same legislative action well certainly not in the progressive controlled jurisdictions uh you know rent control they're gonna it would be the end of rent control once they got rid of squatters yep i mean what is rent control other than legalized squatting yeah that's crazy i knew somebody who lived in santa monica and their rent was like 500 bucks for this like two bedroom because they they like had it was just i forgot how they do it but they transfer the lease over somehow some woman had it since or they never say who
Starting point is 01:52:53 actually left and always just keep paying the same rent i don't know how it works in california but someone was like i think it was like a woman who lived there for 30 years and so she would rent out one of the rooms and it was a couple hundred bucks and the whole place only 500 same thing in new york yeah that's crazy and then what do you do who wants to own that building we were looking at She would rent out one of the rooms and it was a couple hundred bucks and the whole place only $500. Same thing in New York. Yeah. That's crazy. And then what do you do? Who wants to own that building?
Starting point is 01:53:14 We were looking at buying a building in Charlestown and then the person who owned, like, we were like, okay, we want to buy this. We're going to open a business here. And then the owner was like, we've given a three year lease to the tenant upstairs. And I said, see you later. Have a nice day. I'm not buying your building. Like that's, that's, you don't want to be a landlord. Oh, I don't want to be a landlord, but I have no problem.
Starting point is 01:53:27 If it was like, we're going to get like, we'll, we'll talk with the guy who lives here and ask him how long he needs, but we're buying the building. I need to leave. Yeah. Yeah. Like a year or something. Like finish out your lease kind of thing. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:53:37 And like, and I was like, and we'll help them move. And like, we don't want to throw someone out if they've been here for a while, but they're like, they're getting a three year lease. I'm like, I'm not buying your building. I'm like, I can't invest in this and build a business in it with some stranger living there for three years yeah that's like we can't do it and that's fine i'm like if that's your terms like by all means your building you do whatever you want with it i got no beef but i'm sure they would have heard to sell it maybe they sold it
Starting point is 01:53:57 whatever venus sophia says i bought 10 shares of d whack in the first hour and day of trading looking forward to the merger. Planned on holding onto my shares for a very long time. I mean, these DJT shares are basically the Trump trading cards everybody wants. You know what I mean? It's like your share of Donald Trump himself. That's all Truth Social is. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:54:19 It's like, why be honest? Well, that's Trump. If you want to follow Trump, that's the platform. What do we got? Rita Ho says, my great granddad owned land and was beaten to death by Red Guards in China. My granddad escaped, but he lost everyone. The book author is a supporter of the Communist Party and Uyghur genocide. He still lives in China.
Starting point is 01:54:40 I believe the book, Three Body Problem, doesn't even mention the Cultural Revolution. I looked up the book. I could be wrong. And I think in the book Problem doesn't even mention the Cultural Revolution. I looked up the book. I could be wrong. And I think in the book, they don't mention the Cultural Revolution. It takes place in like 1979 or something where they discover aliens or something like that. The Netflix show decides to put it 10 years before and then have it be the merciless communist murders that took place yeah i'm trying to think where as as like the chinese communist uh you know struggle sessions cultural revolution uh it was uh the last emperor had the the uh if you remember that they had the emperor go through yeah uh in a sympathetic way of course to the
Starting point is 01:55:19 communists they forced the emperor to come to terms with his pro-japanese activities what have we here the dude abides says tim is a fellow illinoisian the word is justified hookers be tripping yeah i don't know it was like hooker meant hooking i don't know those are the words you know it is funny that there's still regional terms we mostly mostly sound the same, like dialects are disappearing. But there are still words like bubbler, curb, gym shoes. We say gym shoes in Chicago. I guess that's not a thing in a lot of places. They say sneakers or something like that.
Starting point is 01:55:55 Gym shoes. We said sneakers in New England growing up, or at least I did. I don't know what that was called. You know what a bubbler is? It's like a water fountain, but I said water fountain in New England. I don't know about you.
Starting point is 01:56:03 Yeah, water fountain. It's a fountain. Yeah. You have that, you call them bubblers? No, they're fountains in New England. I don't know about you. Yeah, water fountain. It's a fountain. Yeah. You have that? You call them bubblers? No, there are fountains in New England. Bubblers is Midwest, I think. No, bubblers is like Cape Cod or something. Oh, is it?
Starting point is 01:56:12 I didn't know that. Yeah, let's double check. Bubbler. I don't really recall. I called it a fountain when I was growing up. Pretty sure. Let's see. A bubbler is a drinking fountain in
Starting point is 01:56:25 which the water is forced in a stream from a small vertical nozzle really what is bubbler slang i heard it was uh boston providence area that's what it says there you go i knew some people from cape cod and they said bubbler and uh then there is pop you guys say pop? Pop is like Ohio, definitely. Midwest. New England was soda. Yeah, soda is New England, but then I think the South, maybe it's Texas. There are certain regions where everything is a Coke. Yeah, South Carolina, everything's a Coke.
Starting point is 01:56:54 That was when I was growing up. My mom's from South Carolina, and when we'd go down there for the summer or to visit family and stuff, everything was a Coke. You would get an orange Coke. You would get a Sprite Coke. What kind of Coke do you want? It was a coke you would get an orange coke yeah you get a sprite coke yeah you can get it yeah like what kind of coke do you want yeah it was a cherry coke which
Starting point is 01:57:10 is a thing but you could get an orange coke and you'd come back with like a fanta that happened to me when i was uh i went to la for a skateboarding trip and it was me and this other dude from chicago and these two guys from i think uh somewhere south i don't know where and so the one guy walks into the there's like a team manager and he's like he's like hey can i get a coke and he's like i don't got any coke and he's like oh yeah you do and he's like i don't got any coke dude and then i walked in and i was like yo can i get a pop and he's like what are you guys talking about and then uh i was like i'm i i understand we say pop we say so i was like a soda and he's like you want a soda yeah you can
Starting point is 01:57:44 have whatever soda you want. And then the other guy was like, yeah, that's what I was asking. And he's like, you called it a Coke. And he's like, oh, we call it all Coke. And I was like, wow, this is trippy. Bring people from different parts of the country together and they can't speak English anymore. That's a good, it should be. Go regionalism.
Starting point is 01:57:59 I think that's good for culture. I think it's great. Legama says, Tim, please double down and call her a whore like you are from new jersey whore no i always like danny devito whore h-o-o-r a whore i i was not trying to insult her i think you're insulting feminism not her i did i wasn't insulting anybody i was just like and you know someone said sex positive feminism tim you didn't realize i'm like no no i'm saying like i didn't expect that like growing up as a kid when they talked about women having the right to work and all that stuff that the end result is going to be when i was an
Starting point is 01:58:33 adult they were going to be begging to be to be hookers like they desperately you made the you made the point perfectly and clear they're like i make more money doing only fans than i did as a nurse and it's like yes but you could just be a nurse you don't need to make that money they're like i make more money doing only fans than i did as a nurse and it's like yes but you could just be a nurse you don't need to make that money they're choosing to be prostitutes how much more if it was like oh i make like 50 grand more it's like you really need that 50 grand well like apparently some of these stories are like they go from making three like four or five thousand a month to you know like 20 000 a month and i believe them like i'm sure there's a lot of money in it it's just a question of like is that worth the the cons here like your dignity could you look your your you know children in the eye when you get older like there is a cost that you are you are paying it just may not be financial as much more social
Starting point is 01:59:19 i think a lot of women don't realize the uh stigma that comes along with it. You hear a lot of women that are getting to the point where they don't want to do adult entertainment anymore, and they have a hard time finding anyone that wants to be a fan, a family with them, or whatever. What about that politician in Virginia? Didn't she win? I am looking at this right now, and I can't find any confirmation. Really? What is that?
Starting point is 01:59:44 There was someone on on staff sent me saying that uh p diddy has been arrested the diddler has been caught it's on twitter yeah i don't see any confirmation i'm not seeing any confirmation the people magazine is reporting that he was maybe possibly but not confirmed on this plane but there is an old article from the new york times i think from like 2001 of him getting arrested in Miami. And I think that might be confusing. OK. Yeah. Rumor circulating that Diddy was arrested, but don't know that's true.
