Starting point is 00:01:00 Donald Trump is working on a meeting with Vladimir Putin and Votemir Zelensky. Now, a lot of people say that that's, that was impossible, but I mean, if there's anyone that can do it, it's probably Trump. So we'll talk about that. MSNBC is changing their name. I don't think they're going to change their, their, their, their, their, their, their, platform at all, so I don't think that anyone is going to be, they're not going to get any kind new viewers or anything like that. So we'll discuss that a little bit. The Trump administration
Starting point is 00:01:38 is looking to end mail-in ballots. Now, this is something that I can definitely get behind personally. I would love to see same-day paper ballots. It's something that happens in a whole bunch of countries around the world, and it doesn't need to have, they don't need to have all these, this delay and stuff like that. Florida has, has their information about who, who won, usually a couple hours after polls closed and Florida is actually offered to help any other state get to a system like that if they want so we'll discuss that and Cali California is giving illegal alien CDL license and it is having terrible terrible repercussions so we'll talk about that but before we do how about if you guys head on over to castbrew.com and buy some coffee right it's good stuff um we've got Ian's Graphene Dream we've got Josie's 1776 signature blend.

Is this AI getting millions of dollars per month from Meal and for the baby? Oh, maybe, yeah. You know what I mean?

Starting point is 00:06:20 experience you give us a call and it's amazing awesome phil all right so from the post millennial breaking Trump working to set up a meeting between Putin Zelensky after a call with Russian president. So everyone knows that, or most people know, that Donald Trump and President Putin met in Alaska this past weekend. I think it was Friday, right? Friday or Saturday? Friday. So they met and things were fairly uneventful. There's a lot of people that are critical because Donald Trump didn't, you know, arm bar Putin and tell them get out of Ukraine, you meany or whatever. It was never actually an option.
Starting point is 00:06:53 you're not going to get a situation, you're not going to get a peace situation in Ukraine without involving the Ukrainian present. So this is actually a great development. So from the post-millennial, following an afternoon of meeting with Ukraine president, Vlomir Zelensky, and other European leaders, President Donald Trump announced that he has called Russian President Vladimir Putin to begin scheduling a meeting between Putin and Zelensky. This comes as Trump has been seeking a path to peace between the two nations. I had a very good meeting with distinguished guests, President Vladimir Zelensky says, of Ukraine, President Emmanuel Macron of France, President Alexander Stubb of Finland, Prime Minister Georgia Maloney of Italy, Prime Minister Kirstammer of the United Kingdom, Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany,
Starting point is 00:07:38 Friedrich Murs, President of the European Commission Ursula von Der Leiden, and Secretary General of NATO, Mark Rut, in the White House, which ended in a further meeting in the Oval Office, Trump wrote on Truth Social. During the meeting, we discussed security guarantees for Ukraine, which guarantees would be provided by the various European countries with a coordination with the United States of America. Everyone is very happy about the possibility of peace for Russia, Ukraine. At the conclusion of the meetings, I called President Putin and began the arrangements for a meeting at a location to be determined between the President Putin and President Zelinsky. After that meeting takes place, we'll have a trilat, which would be two presidents plus myself. Again, this is a very good early step for a war that has been going on for almost. four years, Vice President J.D. Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and special envoy,
Starting point is 00:08:24 Steve Whitkoff, are coordinating with Russia and Ukraine. Thank you for your attention to this matter. That's my favorite Trumpism of the second term. I don't think that he said, thank you for attention to this matter during the first Trump administration, and I think this is definitely an upgrade. But what do you guys think? Do you think that this is actually going to produce something, or do you think that Putin is just stringing them along? Because honestly, I don't see how Putin is in a position where he has to do anything, right? Like, he's, he's kind of holding all the cards, in my opinion. So what do you think, Zeeke? I think it's a great first step. But, I mean, Trump is at least doing something. You know, it's not like, it's not like, you know,
Starting point is 00:09:04 before Biden, you know, Biden just seemed confused the entire time. Biden just seemed like he just wanted the war to go on. He was going to throw more money at it and throw more money at Zelensky. And Zelensky was going to, you know, just be like, you know, hey, grandpa, can I have a dollars? so I can go down and get some ice cream and Biden's like, hey, go ahead, take, you know. Starts talking about like bears and his uncle being eaten by cannibals, you know. So at least Trump is out there actually trying to broker peace. And it's way more than we've gotten over the past four years.
Starting point is 00:09:33 And if Trump can actually make this happen, there's nothing the left can say about him anymore. You know, they can't say, you know, he came in there and he's this warmonger president and look at what he's doing. And they can't say anything about him anymore now because Trump took this awful mess that's been going on in Russia and Ukraine for the past four years and did something about it. So he's actually doing something whether it comes to fruition or not, whether it comes to peace or not. At least he got in there and gave it a try. And if it fails, at least he can't
Starting point is 00:10:04 say, well, I sat on my hands for the past four years and did nothing. You know it's serious when Zelensky put on a suit. Yeah. He looked kind of good too. He did. Like black chocolate. Yeah. He even got a joke in. And he made the journalist laugh. Oh, he did? Yeah, the journalist who criticized him for not wearing a suit last time said he looked good this time. And then Zelensky said, you were in the same suit. And I was like, oh, that's not bad. Not bad. I don't like Zelensky, but I was like, not bad. Got to laugh.
Starting point is 00:10:31 Putin does have all the cards. They have the strongest army over in that area. We don't want to get involved, and we're not going to try to get involved. So it's either they have all the cards. Like we were telling last time Trump told Zelensky, we have the cards, or he doesn't have the cards. which he doesn't have the cards and we don't even have the cards anymore as the United States of America
Starting point is 00:10:49 Putin and Russians have all the cards and he's willing to grind out 20,000 people a month, 20,000 deaths he's just willing to grind and put his people through the grinder to keep doing what it wants to do and it'll keep doing it
Starting point is 00:11:02 until they say to Putin or Zelensky says no I'm done, kill my people because he's going to run out of people sooner or later and if he doesn't run out of people I mean when he does run out of people the Europeans aren't going to go inside they're not going to help out
Starting point is 00:11:14 it's going to have to be America And we will not, I don't think we're going to let Chumpel do that. We'll put us boots on the ground. I don't see it happening. Chris, they were talking about the possibility of Article 5 like guarantees. Now, they're not going to have Ukraine join NATO. And I think that's a smart move. It can't happen.
Starting point is 00:11:35 That's good for the whole world. And, yeah, you're right. I don't think that the rules of NATO actually prevent it because there's an ongoing conflict.

Starting point is 00:12:38 Ontario. But if they can, if they, if the Europeans and the United States offer protections that are Article 5 like, which means if Putin makes any more advances into Ukraine, that would mobilize a lot of NATO countries, do you think that that is compelling enough to get Zelensky to try to convince the Ukrainians that they need to make, make concessions? Now, I know that Ukraine has a stipulation in their constitution that they won't give up any more territory. But I'm not sure how important that is or how real that is considering they gave up, they gave up Crimea. Now, I don't know when that stipulation was put into their constitution. I don't know if it was prior to the invasion of Crimea or not. But do you think that that's enough of a guarantee to get Zelensky to move?
Starting point is 00:13:29 It should be, but I'm not certain that it will be because, I mean, for years now, Zelensky's basically been having a hostage negotiation with reality. And I think that he's unhinged enough and demented enough to not understand that he has to take this deal, no matter what happens. Do you think he's just trying to save his own neck? Because there's a lot of people that think that if Putin does actually win that Zolensky's a dead man. Well, yeah, what are his own people going to do to him?
Starting point is 00:13:53 Like, he's looking at a really bad situation when this is over. When it's finally over, like, I don't know, he needs to get to an island somewhere. He'll come here. You think so? Yeah. He'll probably get, like, Bethesda. Yeah. Yeah, he'll be a politician here.
Starting point is 00:14:07 No, he'll get like a CAA deal like Biden did after office, you know. Florida? He'll be a comedian. He'll be our next Ben Stiller. Oh, God. He's going to be a lot of serious, though. I'm being kind of serious. Actually, I mean, yeah, I could see that happening, actually.
Starting point is 00:14:20 Yeah, I mean, to be, look, if it were a situation where the United States government has to pay for him or he gets a late night gig, give him late night gig, I don't have to turn it. Yeah, he could take over Colbert. Yeah, that would be great. So the post-millennial went on addressing reporters after Zelensky arrived at the White House on Monday afternoon. Trump said that he was going to have a phone call with Putin right after these meetings today. Trump met with Putin in Anchorage, Alaska on Friday, where Trump said the two leaders agreed on many things, but not on others. Now, there was some stuff that I saw on X that when this was going on, Putin was making another push. And there were some offensives going on in Ukraine at the very same time that these meetings were happening.
Starting point is 00:15:03 It's my sense that Putin doesn't actually want to play ball. And I don't know, I don't think that he has any reason to. Like, the Russians don't look at losses the way that Western countries do, right? Like, they take a lot of pride in how many people died fighting the Nazis. Like, they use that as a, as, you know, this is why Russia actually was the winners, because we died a lot. And I think that's kind of crazy personally. You're the winners when the other guys die a lot. lot, but they consistently say, well, look, you know, they, they, we were willing to, to put
Starting point is 00:15:39 our butts on the line and, and so many Russians died fighting the Nazis. Very nationalist. Pardon me? Very nationalist, which is, well, nationalists, but also, like, very, they don't, they don't value human life the way that we do in the West, right? Like, Americans, like, as much as we, you know, valorize people that are willing to lay down their lives for others and, and for the cause and stuff, we, we don't think. it's good when people die.
Starting point is 00:16:06 And it seems like Russia kind of does. So if that's, if that is the kind of the case in Russia, what's the motivation to not keep sending dudes into the meat grinder? Because they're going to have more people than the Ukrainians, you know? And they're an all-out military industrial right now. Like it's all war-centered. The whole economies... I don't think they've activated their entire military capability.
Starting point is 00:16:29 No, but what I'm hearing from a lot of reports from news folks is like they're doing a lot of making munitions. Okay. And they're like, it's war economy. Okay. So they're in it to win it. And they'll keep grinding out people and they're going to keep grinding out rockets.
Starting point is 00:16:43 To answer the question, in 2016 is when Crimea, or when Ukraine said they're going to stop giving their lands after they lost Crimea. Okay, so it is post-K Crimea. Yeah, two years after June 28, 1996. And they're like, okay, we lost Crimea, so we're going to try not to lose anything else. Little did they know, Biden took presidency and they're going to lose more. Yeah, I think. Yeah, I don't see, I don't see, I don't see.
Starting point is 00:17:02 I don't see them, you know, giving back any of the territory that they've taken. And I don't see any reason why they, I mean, not that I'm pro-Russia, but I don't see any reason why they should. There has to be some kind of, when you're dealing with, you know, international energy, which is what you've got with the way that most countries deal with each other, especially when it comes to a war. There's not a whole lot of reason. There's not a whole lot of reason for Russia to do it. I think they're both in a position where they don't want to be the one that blinks. like, you know, Ukraine has invested so much and they've gotten so much back in return
Starting point is 00:17:37 and Zelensky now is like this international figure so he can't back down because then it makes it look like, you know, he's punking out a little bit and of course Putin is like, you know, no, I'm not backing down for anything. We are Russia, I am Putin, and we are going to see this through to the end.
Starting point is 00:17:54 So I think for Trump in order to make any real headway with this, he's going to have to make both sides think they've worn somehow, which is, A horrible, impossible task almost. But he's going to have to do it or else it's going to turn into a huge mess and it's going to become an even bigger mess than it was before. How can you make a Ukraine feel like they won anything when they're going to probably end up losing their land?
Starting point is 00:18:19 Maybe because they might win because they stop killing everyone and they might have some men left alive to build up their country that they've already lost. I mean, I don't mean to be Debbie Downer, but like I think you agree that they're not going to get their, there's a really small chance to get their land back. They're definitely not getting it back. To that point, if the, if the Russians are allowed to stay in the areas that they've, they've occupied, they're going to build up. And even if they don't, yeah, yeah, Russia's going to, Russia's going to build up their forces. And I think that, you know, Russia does have the desire to take all of Ukraine. I don't think that they have the desire to go into Poland. I don't think
Starting point is 00:18:55 they're looking to take, take back, you know, Western or Eastern European countries. They might be looking to back some of their former Soviet satellite countries, some of the countries that used to be Soviet republics, but some of those countries have joined NATO, and I don't think that they're going to, they would actually move on those, on the NATO countries at least. But I do think they want to take back Ukraine. I think that it'll just end up being just a staging and it'll be, you know, they'll wait until there's another president that they think is easy, can be pushed, a push over the same way that either Obama or Biden was. And, and when they, feel like they have the ability.
Starting point is 00:19:34 I think that they'll just move on the rest or another part of Ukraine or the rest of Ukraine, however you want to call it. Well, remember, China's also watching this as well seeing what they're going to do about Hong Kong. You know, they're kind of playing red light green light right now, like trying to see like how the United States and the rest of the world is going to react to, you know,
Starting point is 00:19:51 what's, what, I'm sorry? Taiwan. Excuse me, Taiwan. I'm not my fault. They're looking at this and they're trying to figure out what they're going to do now. So, you know, the response from the rest of the the world and the reaction from the rest of the world is going to really determine what China does
Starting point is 00:20:07 with Taiwan. It seems like we're anticipating that to happen because Trump announced a thing with Intel, right? Did you see that story the other day? No. They might nationalize Intel to make chips here. Oh, Intel the company, yes. Intel the company. Sorry. Because of, you know, we get so many chips from Taiwan. And if they are invaded, then there goes so many of our chips. So it seems like we're, our administration is expecting that. Well, it's the worst kept secret. You know, China is looking at Taiwan and salivating, and they're already picking their spots. You know, oh, we're going to occupy over there. We're going to do this.
Starting point is 00:20:38 So, I mean, it's the world's worst kept secret. So you've got to plan for it. I mean, I've already built islands so they can stage up on the islands. Exactly. It's my sense that there's a different, you know, it's a different situation with China and Taiwan because the U.S. has a vested interest in Taiwan. The U.S. doesn't actually have an interest in Ukraine, right? like Hunter Biden did well I mean but and there were some bio labs but but that's not something even if they're even if even if the the biolabs were like real and and something that
Starting point is 00:21:14 the US was was using it wasn't obvious and it wasn't a big deal it's something they chips are a big part of the economy because yeah without the chips that Taiwan produces the military doesn't have the ability to function I I don't know exactly what the what the amount was, but I heard a general talking about the number of magnets, rare earth magnets that are in an F-35. It's like a boatload of, like a lot of magnets. And those they get from, I don't know if they get them from China or not. But the point I'm making is there's a lot of, a lot of reason for the U.S. to actually try to defend Taiwan. Whereas, you know, honestly, what we're doing in Ukraine is just because the world kind of expects us to because we're the- It's charity with our tax
Starting point is 00:22:01 dollars yeah i think it's more you had the biden's who were heavily invested in ukraine big time so they were more looking out for their own interests and then sort of gaslighted the rest of the united states and so oh no don't we have to protect them because look at russia you know russia are evil but um yeah i agree what you're saying phil you know Taiwan is more of a is of an interest of all americans that we can't get involved in and say hey listen yeah no you can't you can't invade them that directly affects us rather than Ukraine, which was like, you know, Biden went, oh, hell, no, we got to, we got to protect them, you know. And to your point, Shane, like, I don't think that it's a good idea to nationalize a company.
Starting point is 00:22:41 Same. But I do think that if the United States wants to say we're going to, you know, start a company or start a national, put a national effort, something like the Manhattan Project to re-industrialize at least the chips that we need for, you know, for, for, for, for, for, for, for national defense. I think that's a good idea. I'm opposed to nationalizing companies for sure.
Starting point is 00:23:04 And Intel is an inferior chip maker, but they like it because they make them here, you know? Well, I mean, so would you be against the government, you know, working on a project that was similar to the Manhattan Project in order
Starting point is 00:23:17 to produce chips and stuff here? Because, I mean, that's jobs. I don't trust them to do anything properly, so I trust them to do nothing. Wait, so are you for that? Would you be for that? Against them nationalizing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:29 company. But would you be okay with the government working with existing companies to do something like the Manhattan Project in order to be? No, because I'm against it now, because that's what Stargate is, too, with AI. You know, it's all those companies putting in a lot of money, AI and Oracle, to do something alongside the government. And I don't trust that as well as I think that's ushering in a dystopia. Real quick, I mean, your rare earth magnets, China produces 90% of the world supply. So China has, how many, how many pounds of Earth of magnets? are in an F-35. Let me check that out, but probably a lot. A boat load. Oh, there's truckload. But also, if Ukraine became Russia tomorrow, we wouldn't, we wouldn't infect us at all. But if Taiwan lost to China, it would affect us a lot.
Starting point is 00:24:14 Yeah. So we've got this breaking information here, breaking news. There is a coal freighter that just exploded in Baltimore Harbor from the post-millennial. Flames were seen erupting from a ship in Baltimore Harbor on Monday evening per WM, M-A-R-2, the Baltimore County Fire Department confirmed an explosion occurred on a coal tanker near the site of the Francis Scott Keybridge, which still has not been rebuilt and that was collapsed in 2024. The Coast Guard is reported to the en route to inspect the scene.
Starting point is 00:24:44 Yeah, so we got the video. I haven't watched yet, but I assume it will be, I guess it's graphic warning if you want to want to say so. Probably, I mean, it's graphic because it's explosion. I don't know if anyone died or anything, so. Grab a coffee and discover Vegas-level excitement with BEDMGM Casino.

Starting point is 00:26:01 Sheesh. Wait, are they going underneath the bridge? Are they, like, they're going to run into it? No, they're going by it. Okay. Yeah, it looks like right between it at the same time. The bridge still isn't fixed, by the way. job, Baltimore. You guys...
Starting point is 00:26:28 North Carolina, I'll forget about them. It's a shame. It's a shame. Yeah. I feel like in the United States right now, I'll check engine lights on. Oh. You've got to, like, it's been going for a while. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:39 Our check engine light is on, and it's a woman that's actually in the driver's seat. More. Come on, ladies, you know, it's true. And she's a Asian lady if we're going to go crazy. They're trying to parallel park. She's hitting the curb every time. My wife is going to be so pissed at that. All right, so we're going to jump to the next door here.
Starting point is 00:27:04 MSNBC from the New York Times, goodbye MSNBC, hello MS now. The cable news network is changing its name this year because a corporate spinoff is separating MSNBC from its cousin NBC news. For three decades, news and progressive opinion on the cable dial has been defined by five capital letters, MSNBC. By the end of this year, a couple of those letters are changing. That's not actually true because right after not. I watched MSNBC all the time, and Joe Scarborough was still a conservative. He was still a Republican. He had a nighttime show.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Dan Abrams had a nighttime show. They had a fairly, they had some variety in their opinions. And then when morning Joe started, when they first got on air, for the first probably five years, Joe was still a conservative. This is probably before he started banging Mika, to be honest with you. His handler. Yeah, that's what happened. See how I? She started saying, no, no, you can't have these opinions.
Starting point is 00:27:58 Johnians, Jeff, if you want to actually... Was that good? Well, I mean... Her father was Bigginzinski, you know, the guy that was from the Council on Foreign Relations. One did it help fund Pol Pot? Oh, did he? Through Carter. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:28:11 Garbage. Garbage people. But yeah, so anyways, as part of a corporate spinoff from Comcast, MSNBC is changing its name to its name to My Source News Opinion World, or MS Now, for short. The name is meant to reflect the channel's mission to provide breaking news and best-in-class opinion journalism. Rebecca Cutler said MSNBC president said in a memo to employees on Monday. I want to
Starting point is 00:28:34 acknowledge that for many years you who have spent years or decades here, it's hard to imagine the network by any other name. Ms. Cutler said, this was not a decision that was made quickly or without significant debate. Most of the cable channels that were part of Comcast NBC Universal TV
Starting point is 00:28:50 Empire are being spun out this year into a new company called Veracant. The spinoff will require the new company to stop using the NBC brand and its signature peacock, which are both staying with Comcast, said Mark Lazaroth, chief executive of Veracen. This gives us the opportunity to chart our own path forward, create distinct brand identities, and establish an independent news organization following the spin, Mr. Lazarus said in the memo to employees. CNBC will retain its initials, which stand for consumer news and business
Starting point is 00:29:19 channel, but will be accompanied by a new logo without the peacock when the separation is complete, which is expected by the end of the year. Adam Miller, the chief operating officer at NBC Universal, said in a memo to employees on Monday that the change would help avoid confusion between viewers of NBC News and MSNBC as the two channels cover the same news events. Since the split was announced a few months ago, MSNBC has gone on a hiring spree, adding at least three dozen journalists as the organization prepares to separate itself from the sizable news-gathering prowess of NBC News, its longtime corporate cousin. this is not going to substantially change what MSN what you know what is it MS now is right this is going to be the same progressive drivel it's going to be the same you know same same same same company that's been getting terrible ratings for the past five years at least I mean the Democrat Party is in has been in free fall forever when it comes to you know the brand or the
Starting point is 00:30:20 brand or whatever so I don't don't see how this is anything more than what they have to do because of the spinoff. This is not going to help their ratings or anything. I mean, what's your sense, Chris? Oh, absolutely not. No, I mean, I feel like I'm listening to, like, a news release from 20 years ago. Like, this is like a kind of a rare insight into the perverted mind of corporate culture. It's all about mergers and divergers and branding. Oh, the branding, the branding. It's really pathetic and it's not going to impact their ratings at all, especially not positively, I don't think. And NBC has slowly, but surely, we've all noticed, I'm sure, turned into even worse than MSNBC with their lives and their whole progressive format.
Starting point is 00:31:00 So, like they said, MSNBC and NBC are basically the same news station. Sure. So they're going to get rid of one and keep the one that has more of a longevity name. You know, NBC's been around forever compared to MSNBC. Do you think at one point they had MSNWO? And someone was like, we can't do the mask off. Not yet. But at least that makes a little bit of sense.
Starting point is 00:31:22 Like, it's a cool name. What does this one stand for? News, opinion. And world? Yeah, news opinion. It doesn't sound good. NWO sounds better, but they couldn't. MS now.
Starting point is 00:31:32 Yeah, it sounds like democracy now, which is another. Which would be perfect. That's in line with the brand. Yeah, that's what they're trying to do. Exactly. Dude, and they're getting rid of the golf channel in E and oxygen and USA Network. Not E. Remember USA Network?
Starting point is 00:31:44 Do you just have decent shows back in the... Huh? Once upon a time. Used to. Used to. Used to. A few words used to. I mean, all they really do when they're slapping a fresh-coated paint on the same title project, you know, it's like, you know, this is still the channel of people like Joy Reid, you know, this is still, they mean, they fired her, but her imprint's still there.
Starting point is 00:32:03 No, this is still the channel where, you know, it's basically just turned into a propaganda wing of the Democrat Party. People are not going to turn in and watch it now when it's just, you know, Trump is bad 24 hours a day. This is why, like, I don't know anyone who watches the view. you know, when you turn into just Trump is bad, Trump is bad, but the majority of the country voted for him and more people are leaning towards the right now
Starting point is 00:32:28 because the left has gone so crazy it's the same thing and if you're all you're doing when you rebrand it is now just saying, okay we're going to make it look a little different but it's going to be the same thing and they might get a slight bump like the first day or two or maybe the first
Starting point is 00:32:44 week but it's not going to last past that. Aren't they very racist too? Like MSNBC is, they're more less progressive, they're more racist progressive. They're steeped in critical race theory and critical race theory makes people racist, yeah. I mean, when you
Starting point is 00:33:00 if your focus is race, if that's the first aspect that you see when you see another person is it's just well their race so I make all these assumptions that go along with it, that's, I mean, that's boilerplate racism and yes, they're full of incredibly racist people if that, you know, unless
Starting point is 00:33:16 you ascribe to their definition of racism, which is just the definition that makes it okay for them to be racist is essentially. Listen, I get called a racist almost every day against black people, which I'm like, listen, like, please, no one tell my family, they're gonna be pissed, you know?
Starting point is 00:33:34 But, I mean, don't they still have Al Sharpton who does commentary? Yep, is he still there? If I understand correctly. So, I mean, you know, he's about down to about 115 pounds now and about 50 pounds that is in his head because that weighs not a little bit here. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:48 But, I mean, like I said, all they're doing is slap in fresh curry paint. It's not going to do anything for them. And they're going to keep continuing to spiral down until they actually change their content and actually do something different. Do you think that the progressives in the U.S., and when I say the progressives, I mean, people that share their opinions, do you think that they would move on their opinions? Because I really do think the actual thought leaders in the, on the left, right?
Starting point is 00:34:18 So the people that aren't just, you know, regurgitating what they've heard in school or regurgitating what they've heard on the news. The people that are actually, you know, thinking about these ideas and trying to come up with where, you know, what actually does progressive mean and stuff. Do you think that those people are going to change in response to the, the solid rejection that the countries kind of, you know, decided to give them? Or do you think that they're going to just try and repackage? I think they're going to dig their heels in
Starting point is 00:34:48 and say, no, you're all wrong. I'm right. Because that's what's happening in all these liberal capitals. You look at what's happening in California. Look at what's happening in New York City. Look at what's happening. Like, you know, Jasmine Crockett, of all people.
Starting point is 00:35:01 You know, how many times can you be told you're wrong or proven wrong or even your own party rejects you? And you're still like, but I'm right. But I'm going to keep doing this. But I'm right. I'm right. So I think they're just going to dig their heels in, say I'm right, I'm correct
Starting point is 00:35:16 and watch everything crumble around them and then try to figure out why it's gotten this bad. I mean, I spoke to someone the other day and I showed him the graph that Elon Musk put up one time where he said I'm right here and it used
Starting point is 00:35:33 to be this is where like the middle was and then the middle kept going further and further and further to the right and the left kept going further and further out and more extreme and he said well no you have to change yourself now to be more towards the middle. And I said, you know, well, why do you have to change what you believe in in
Starting point is 00:35:50 in order to appease the middle? You know, if you, if you are who you are and your beliefs have never changed and now you're seen as a right-wing extremist because you have beliefs that 20 years ago were considered more towards the middle, why should you change? And he's like, no, but you have to change. You have to. So this is where these people are. It's a warped way of thinking.
Starting point is 00:36:11 It doesn't make sense to anyone who just thinks logically. But this is what the left has become. Sounds like you have to appease the group. If you don't appease the group, then you're bad, then your right wing. If you don't follow them down their trail of lemmings off the cliff, then you're definitely going to be, you know, consider right wing. You have to continue to appease the group. So if someone comes to you and says, well, my pronouns are they, them.
Starting point is 00:36:35 Now you have to, you can't just say, oh, I was talking to him earlier. You have to say, oh, I was talking to them earlier. And normal rational people are going, okay, them who? I only see one person. Oh, no, he's non-binary. But this is what you have to be. Or if you're a furry and you believe that you truly believe in your heart, oh, I'm a cat. You know, you have, okay, well, I'll put the litter box out for you.
Starting point is 00:37:01 No one look, as he's pooping in the litter box as we're all trying to eat, you know, it turns into one of those things. And that's why we call them a cult, right, brother? Yeah, they are a cult. Corporate won't allow them to change their minds, even if they probably feel differently inside. Because you see like independent leftists, someone like an Anacasparian, has been able to say things against the monolith that gets her in trouble with her base. But she feels comfortable doing that because she believes that in her heart, she's seen in L.A. the crime and how it's changed, you know, and how things like defund the police was a bad decision. But I don't think they can go out and say we've changed our minds on a corporate platform like this. If they do, that would be shocking.
Starting point is 00:37:38 So it's your sense that when you say corporate, do you mean that the major direction of the left is from corporations? A lot of it, yeah. I mean like corporate outlets, like an NBC, like a Microsoft, like those places that are funded with have the big farm. Grab a coffee and discover Vegas-level excitement with BEDMGM Casino.

So you don't think that, because it's my sense that most of the direction of the left is really close. coming from people like, or it comes from basically academia, right? So people like bell hooks, people like, I'm not sure who's actually active nowadays, but it was like your postmodernists, your leftists, your Foucault's, your, you know, and those kind of thinkers. So is it your sense that they don't shape the opinions of the left?
Starting point is 00:39:30 Or is it your opinion that people in corporate America hear that and they say this is what we should do because that's what they believe or do you think that it's this is what we should do because this is what we think people will purchase it's the latter corporate america bends the knee to fear like they're they're they are dictated by what the people that what they think the people will riot over but i think the left is fractured so it's hard to say one group is inspiring the left over another just like the right is fractured you see maga types and you see uh lindsay graham types you know it's hard to see, you know, who exactly, there's not one thing influencing them all. But the left is more of a monolith. I do believe that. But, you know, watching people like only young Turks have
Starting point is 00:40:16 conversations with people on the right, you don't, I don't think you'll see that, at least in a long format context out of an MS now or, you know, especially on the view where it's all just soundbites and they want to attack you. Whereas more independent-minded people who might still have, who definitely still hold leftist beliefs, they're willing. to talk it out. Well, Casparian in particular, like, and I think she's hilarious, but her in particular, like, she literally, like, had an interaction with reality. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Her ideology bumped into reality, and she was forced to change what she thought because she started saying, wait a minute, this, this isn't, it's not true. I mean, there's a clip that's pretty famous of her talking about some murders that were happening on Long Island she was when she heard the story she's like this is this can't be true and then she goes it's true guys it was real it's real you know and she's like i was gonna i was just going to blow it off but then because the left really can't be trusted and so people that have trusted the left for a long time and written house is another perfect example there are tons of people on the left that would swear up and down that written house was there to kill
Starting point is 00:41:32 black people, and he did kill black people. It's like, bro, he killed two white guys that attacked him, and they would swear up and down that, no, that's not what happened. Even to the point where if you show them evidence, they kind of still don't believe it. I think that Chank is actually
Starting point is 00:41:50 one of those guys. He saw it, and he's still like, well, he was still, he was wrong for going there, etc., etc. They're allergic to it. I do also want to say that someone like Anna is rare on the left. Like, I think a lot of them will sacrifice themselves, into danger, you know, if it conflicts with their worldview. Like during the George Floyd riots, like I was living right near Newburgh in New York, and there were people who were having their windows smashed, you know, it was crazy rioting. And the next day they put up boards on their
Starting point is 00:42:19 storefront window saying, we forgive you. You know, like they don't care about their own personal safety, you know, at least not outwardly. You know, so they are willing to sacrifice themselves for their ideology. And that seems to be more prevalent. than someone like Anna Kasparian who's willing to confront reality and publicly say, I've changed my mind. Wasn't there a study done once where they said that for you to give up your belief, like, it's actually like painful, it's physically painful to yourself, like for you to admit that, you know, you're wrong. So for someone that thinks that Kyle Rittenhouse, I'm sorry?
Starting point is 00:42:55 No, no, so for someone like Kyle Rittenhouse where they were like, you know, oh, this is white supremacy, I think my wife's cousin put up like a post on Facebook, you know, after the whole thing happened when he was not guilty. And she goes, this is white supremacy at play right here. And it was like, okay, this is a white guy who shot three other white people. Right. And self-defense. And how is this?
Starting point is 00:43:15 And in the grandest definition of self-defense there could be. Right. Please explain to me how this is white supremacy. And she was like, well, it just is. You got me. Okay. You could show some of these people the footage and they'd still walk away with that belief that they initially held.
Starting point is 00:43:32 You know, like, you could show them the very fine people on both sides, full context, you show them written house, all these different things, and they still have a hard time change. We had someone on the show this year. We were talking about, I forget what it was. It was a very fine people, and she couldn't even still wrap her head around it. And Snopes had already, Snopes of all places said it was fake. One of my friends, a good buddy of mine that I've been friends with for years and years,
Starting point is 00:43:52 he's pretty left. And when it comes to the Donald Trump, very fine people thing, I'm like, look, man, you know, look look and he's like well he was still there there were Nazis there so I'm like bro he specifically said no and like when when it came to like that whole thing like the the Nazis were not openly Nazis before like before the actual like thing like they were like kind of keeping it on the down low um but yeah just just was just like look man he was there and Nazis were there so it doesn't matter the problem is is that these people, they need to have genuine character.
Starting point is 00:44:33 And in order to have genuine character, you have to admit that you were lied to, that you believe the lie without thinking about it critically, and you promulgated it. And most people don't have the character to actually fess up to that kind of thing. It doesn't matter if you prove it to them or not. You know, they're just not going to go for it.
Starting point is 00:44:46 Yeah. And look at the whole party switch argument from the left. Mm-hmm. Like, I keep asking, do you really believe that Republicans got together with Democrats and just kind of went, okay, like, we're going to reverse this, right? Okay, cool. You know, somebody just threw out the Uno Reverse card and said, okay, from now on, this is how we're going to do this.
Starting point is 00:45:05 It's been disproven over and over again, but they still hold on to that. Like, I get in arguments almost every other day with someone. It was like, well, the party switched. You know, even though the KKK was started out as the enforcement wing of the Democrat Party, the party switched. When? And who switched? Yep. And then they're like, well, you know, just Google it.
Starting point is 00:45:26 No, no, you Google's not going to give you the answer anyway. you know yeah but they can these days you can go up and get any online and get anything to confirm your bias you know so we know we know is to be true we believe in objective truth i think most of us in this room but they think they believe in an objective truth and they go to something like google and they can just find whatever website they can find to confirm that bias and then that's the gospel to them and that's it and there's uh no such thing as a nazi in today's world like that's blatantly false there might be neo nazis but like germany from 1930s and 40s is done it's It sounds like Raymond's not listening to Inverter World Live.
Starting point is 00:46:02 We have the Fourth Reich on Mars right now and below Antarctica. That was a wild episode. And Hitler's alive. And Hitler's alive. I am shocked that he did not have a heart attack on the show. Sweating. Bro, you know he was blind. I had this dude calling who says he's from the Fourth Reich.
Starting point is 00:46:19 And the Fourth Reich is cool with Jews now. And they have a base beneath Antarctica. I don't want to get this show out of control. But they are alive. I'll get you there. I'll get you there. I'll get you there. I'll get you there.
Starting point is 00:46:28 I've got if there's ever a reason now to visit Antarctica I got to see this You gotta get special permission from Trump first Can't go there Well you gotta go in the winter here Because it's summertime down there Aren't there dark side of the moon Nazi bases still Like old ones
Starting point is 00:46:45 Do you really want to go down there? No no I know I know I think they're below the moon But the Chinese are on the dark side of the moon When you get done call I'll call in show I'll hook you up I'll call in on our after show here
Starting point is 00:46:57 Awesome There you go. All right. So we're going to jump to this story. From U.S. news, Trump vows to end use of mail-in ballots ahead of 2026 midterm election. From Reuters. U.S. President Donald Trump pledged on Monday to issue an executive order to end the use of mail-in ballots and voting machines ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, a move likely to disproportionately favor his Republican Party. Federal elections are administered at the state level, however, and it is unclear if the president has a constitutional power to enact the measure.
Starting point is 00:47:28 Legal changes by some states are likely. I'm sorry, legal challenges by some states are likely. With Democrat voters traditionally more likely to use mail-in ballots than Republicans, Trump's pledge is his last effort to reshape the midterm election battlefield to his party's advantage. He has also urged Republicans in states, including Texas and Indiana, to redraw congressional districts to increase the likelihood of a Republican candidate being elected. Yes. The November 23rd, I'm sorry, November 3rd, 2020.
Starting point is 00:47:58 elections will be the first nationwide referendums on Trump's domestic and foreign policy since he returned to power in January. Democrats will be seeking to break Republicans' grip on both the House of Representatives and the Senate to block Trump's domestic agenda. I mean, they say to block Trump's domestic agenda, but really it's to try to impeach Trump. Like, they want to get the House so that way they can just have, you know, two years of attempts at impeaching him. And the way that this, you know, this piece is written is clearly to be critical of Republicans. Republicans. Look, it's likely that if the, actually, I have a very firm take on this. If the, if the economy is not good next year at this time, it doesn't matter what policies the Republicans have or I've talked about the Republicans will lose the house. If the economy is good, then the Republicans can keep the house. That's not a guarantee. That's just saying that if they have the right people and they do the right things, if they're running the right candidates, they're doing the right things, the people that are running. for re-election are actually doing the things they need to do to make sure that they win.
Starting point is 00:49:03 Then again, they can win. But it's all going to come down to the economy. And, you know, the last bit of economic information that I saw was inflation kind of ticked up in the past month. This will not be good for Republicans if inflation is still running kind of hot next year at this time. Because inflation, like, prices aren't going to come down. inflation that happens like it doesn't it's not like you the inflation happens and then prices go up and then they come down again like that inflation is sticky as hell so this is is i think this is a good idea i think the republicans should do these kind of things because i think
Starting point is 00:49:41 that any time the republicans can legally do uh can you know take any kind of political measures to give themselves an advantage i think they should democrats will given the chance um you know newsom is talking about oh well you know if they redistrict in texas then we're going to redistrict in California, that doesn't matter because if it turns into a redistricting fight, the Republicans have all the cards. There will be a handful of new seats that Democrats could win, but even still, it's not a guarantee, but there's a handful of seats that Democrats could win,
Starting point is 00:50:15 and then Republicans, I think, would have something like 10. There was a tweet that I saw that I'll actually bring up in a second. But back to mail-in ballots, I mean, this is the smart play, right? the way to make sure that there aren't people doing funky things after the polls have closed or things are actually counted properly? I mean, what did it your sense? I mean, I remember being a kid and elections were figured out on the night of election night. When did we get away from that? Why is it now that, you know, okay, election day was Tuesday. We're not going to know who actually won until two weeks from today. Like, when did this start happening? I thought
Starting point is 00:50:56 technology made things better and streamlined things to make things better. The first time that I noticed it was, I think, 2020, right? Or was it? Because in 2016, we knew that Trump won, you know, by midnight or something like that. You could have the hanging chads. The hanging chads, but the hanging chads are different than waiting to count, right? The hanging chads were like, that was honestly, that was Democrats saying, well, these are these, these aren't, we're not sure who they were voting for because there's a hanging chad,
Starting point is 00:51:26 etc um but i thought that they they were the and it was democrats trying to do recounts i was i was under the impression or i the way that i remember it it was all about democrats saying wait wait it's close so let's recount them yeah and generally every time they do a recount the the side that's trying to do the recount and wants to get more votes miraculously they find more votes yeah the hang chad's supposed to notice that you're supposed to seriously though they want you to deny it like i think of the hanging chads in terms of uh the carry lake uh trial show had for her ballots because it was sort of similar in terms of what was an invalid ballot and they had no chain of custody for entire pallets of these ballots and and they actually printed out
Starting point is 00:52:07 the wrong size ballot you know and they couldn't feed it into the machine properly it was totally bogus and the court was totally stacked against her and there were people that were caught lying on the stand didn't matter it was insane you know so I think this is great I think I remember mailing ballots only being I mean I'm sure this isn't the case but as a kid I remember them being mostly for soldiers who are overseas or something, you know, which seems I'm okay with that. But now it's the thing to do and also dead people. And I like to stop that.
Starting point is 00:52:38 I wonder if it's because folks are getting just a random thought that folks are getting old, like their base.

For Democrats, they're getting really old to get the boomers. You know, they can't get into their cars, they can't drive. So they, and that's why they harvest as well. Go around from place to place in the cities.
Starting point is 00:53:51 I'm like, yo, old person here, go ahead and vote for Democrats, so we can get more people on it and where maybe younger folks might not be vote. voting as much. But also, end of day, if we can use the power to keep America strong and safe and secure, freaking use it, Trump. Let's go. I mean, remember when Democrats are saying things like, you know, our democracy, they don't actually mean democracy. Because if they did, they wouldn't be looking to expand the court, or I'm sorry, expand the court and pack, you pack the court. And then they want to add states so that way they have the likelihood of more senators. Lower the voting age and get rid of the electorate college. All of these things
Starting point is 00:54:28 are because they don't like the actual way that things go. Um, if, hey, search, can you bring that to some people can see? This is, uh, from Chris Eliza, who is no, no Republican, uh, or friend of conservatives. The states that were draw their maps, you get some in Oregon, California, Illinois, and Maryland, but look at this. This is a massive amount of, of possibility for, for the Republicans. So if this does turn into a fight between, you know, Democrats and Republicans redistricting, I mean, the Republicans have a lot more, a lot more possible votes to get or seats to get as opposed to Democrats. So even though, you know, Gavin Newsom's news or whatever, his social media team is out there, you know, doing the best they can in the past couple
Starting point is 00:55:16 of days. And actually, in my opinion, they've got a couple funny tweets. But that's, that's all they are is just funny tweets they're they're out there you know doing the best they can the reality reality of the situation is they're in a bad position to even try to talk about this argument right if this is there if they actually do want to get into a redistricting fight republicans seem like they're they're again holding all the cards have you ever actually looked at illinois's uh map as far as a representative it's crazy it looks like like a kid drew what they could on the map and you've got like it's a mess. So if they actually
Starting point is 00:55:54 redistrict their map in Illinois, it's going to turn into Democrats fighting Democrats. Same thing with California. It's going to turn into Democrats fighting Democrats over their seats. So the Red States definitely have more to gain from any kind of redistrict kind of fight that they're going to go for. But But as far as what Gavin Newsom is trying to do in retaliation to what Texas is doing, he's going to lose 10 times out of 10. So if he wants to pick that fight and he wants to pick that battling, he wants to bring Illinois with him, he wants to bring Pritzker with him, you know, he wants to, they're going to lose.
Starting point is 00:56:33 And I think ultimately the Democrat Party is looking at them like, don't, don't, don't do this. You're going to, we're going to lose this fight. Don't do this, please, don't. So the past couple days, it's kind of seemed like Gavin. Newsom has moved, and granted, we're a long way away from any election, right? And it's clear that Gavin Newsom wants to be the president. But in the past couple days, it's really looked like he's kind of taken initiative and put himself in a position to be considered the face of the Democrat Party and really out there working it hard. Do you guys have the sense that
Starting point is 00:57:06 he could possibly be the nominee? And how does someone like Gavin Newsom take on someone like aOC if she decides that she wants to run because both of them have you know significant political chops and aOC is very savvy how to who wins the the um the the primary for the democrats if it's if it's aOC versus gavin newsom versus pritzker versus i don't know who else i don't i don't think aOC's got a shot i don't think a o's got a shot anyone with with common sense two work and brain cells looks at AOC and is like, no, I don't think she's, she, I think she'll appeal to the younger crowd, but I mean, listen, if they put her in a debate with a possible J.D. Vance, with a possible Marco Rubio, she will get destroyed. She'll get destroyed worse than Kamala Harris did.
Starting point is 00:58:03 But this is, this is primaries that we're talking about. So maybe if she does go, I think you're right about it. So let's say, let's, let's, let's pretend. Let's pretend. she beats Gavin Newsom, which I don't think it's going to happen, but she'll get destroyed. I think the Democrat Party knows that. I think Gavin Newsom is their best shot, and I think he knows he's their best shot. So that's why he's been going on the podcast. That's why he's been trying to put his name more out there. Have you seen the picture going around on X of Gavin Newsom and his family?
Starting point is 00:58:32 Oh, absolutely. They are just as white, blonde, blue eye. How does that family win the Democrat nomination? because you know people that are looking to win are going to use the fact that he's a white guy and it's a white family and because if that was a Republican to be like they're Nazis clearly look it they're blonde they're blue-eyed look they're of course they're Nazis
Starting point is 00:58:55 that was the same that was the same argument that the people were making about the Sydney Sweeney so how does he beat that see if I'm Jasmine Crockett this is this is my time to shine she's his VP yeah I'd be calling Gavin like hey listen Gavin you're going to You're going to need a sister girl out there. You need a Kamala. Yeah, you need a Kamala.
Starting point is 00:59:16 You need a sister girl. So listen, I'm your, I'm your best shot. Who else does, do the Democrats have? I mean. Not Ilhan. Not Ilhan. I don't think she can't be VP. Yeah, hopefully, no, she can't.
Starting point is 00:59:27 She can't. Born in America. You can't marry your brother and be VP. But, I mean, listen, if I'm, if I'm Jasmine Crow. Or, you know what? Maybe this is where AOC comes in. Yeah. She's, she's, she could see that.
Starting point is 00:59:39 I could see that. I could see that. I think Gavin Newsome and his presidency, his run for presidency when he announced his podcast. Like it was a slow rebranding into him being this national figure. I mean, I was at the primary debate at the Reagan library for the Republicans. Trump wasn't there. There's all these, you know, Vivek, I forget, Nikki Haley, all those people. And Newsom showed up at the, at the library. And he took over. his presence dominated for all the fox news guys Sean Hannity that's all they wanted to talk to
Starting point is 01:00:12 and he's charming like a devil you know he's super charming but he dominated the other guys they didn't even do many interviews some of them just walked away afterwards the Republicans but he took over the whole thing and to see him work like that it's insane it's infuriating because he tricks people I even see like a lot of Republicans there who were fawning over him because they think he's this handsome guy he looks like American psycho to me yes and I don't there's no amount of rebranding he can do that will ever make me forget what he did during COVID. And the same goes for any of these leftists. I mean, to be fair, I do think that you're fairly anomalous, though. Yeah. Like, I don't think that, I think that the average kind of person that would meet Gavin Newsom isn't going to be as
Starting point is 01:00:51 critical as you would be. Like, I mean, I've been, I don't know. Most people who fled California. Well, that's not, that's in the grand scheme of things. That's not a lot of people. And to be honest with you, like, I spent all weekend putting pictures of the sand-filled skate parks underneath everything that Gavin Newsom was doing. I'm just like, all right. If it just came across, I'm like, I'll grab the picture, just post it.
Starting point is 01:01:13 That's it. Because he's trying to use the freedom and the free California was one of the things they were talking about. Come to the free state of California, which is absolutely ridiculous. Like the idea that California is one of the freest states is just absurd.
Starting point is 01:01:29 But I think that the media team that he's got is really, really savvy. I think they're smart and I think that the things that they're doing will convince people and it definitely will fire Democrats up.
Starting point is 01:01:43 I know that the chat's going to hate the fact anytime you say anything like this that's like any kind of analysis where it's like, look, these are good ideas and they're going to work. They're just like, oh, you're a shill, you're a moron. But that it's true, right?
Starting point is 01:01:55 Like the same thing with like AOC, like AOC as much as, you know, you can hate her and I hate her policy, I would never vote for her, but you can't deny when she gets on Instagram and she's cooking and she's talking to people. Young people are just like, that's my girl. I love her. You know, tons of them. And to discard, you know, just blow that aside or to not pay attention to how dangerous that is to Republicans and to the country because I think their policies would would be terrible for the country.
Starting point is 01:02:29 if you disregard how dangerous that is that's the same thing that people did about Donald Trump they ignored all the people that were saying I like Donald Trump I mean Hillary Clinton had a 95 or 98% chance on election night and it was clear to a handful of people Donald Trump's going to win and they laughed
Starting point is 01:02:50 they laughed at him so the idea that we can just ignore these people and just say oh they're stupid oh they're stupid because we disagree with them that is an error It's an error that will cost the American people significantly. Despite Newsom being charming, I think it's inauthentic. And Trump, I think, is better at being authentic, despite him making people really uncomfortable sometimes on the left off course. But I don't think Newsom has been able to carry that inauthenticity on a national platform.
Starting point is 01:03:19 And I just disagree. I think a lot of people aren't going to forget how bad he governed California, not just during COVID, but afterwards. I mean, it was super dystopian. A lot of people did leave. He also has a long track record in California between being mayor, these controversies, and all the stuff. I don't know if people are going to forget that so easily. So one of the things that we're...
Starting point is 01:03:41 Go ahead, please. No, I'll just, I'll say this. I hate to disagree with you. Yeah. But American voters have a very, very short memories. Yeah. You know, like, I listened to Gavin Newsome on a podcast.
Starting point is 01:03:55 and if I didn't know any better, he comes across as a normal, level-headed kind of guy. You don't think about how he shut down California. You don't think about how he told everybody in California to lock down, but then he was caught at the French laundry. You know, you don't think about all the policies he did, how he kicked all the homeless people out of California or out of L.A. real quick,
Starting point is 01:04:17 so that a chairman Mao could come and hang out and drive through the streets and make it look like, you know, California's just a pristine place. you you and then on the podcast he's like yeah you know that was i just i own up to it and it was wrong of me to do so and you know so he comes across as like a level-headed kind of guy and the american voter has a very short memory i mean thankfully they didn't fall into it with hillary clinton Hillary clinton is like you know the devil spawn herself but for gavin newsome and especially like you said if the economy doesn't shape back up if if if trump doesn't deliver on a lot of stuff he was doing, if J.D. Vance takes a tumble somewhere, we might be looking at it.
Starting point is 01:05:00 How do you feel in terms of that in New York with Cuomo running for mayor? Because that's all, I left New York because of Cuomo, you know, for a lot of reasons. But Cuomo being one of the main reasons, because he governed a lot like Newsom, I'd say maybe worse in many ways. Do you think the people in New York have that short-term memory when it comes to Cuomo, are they just going to Momdani? I think if you look at New York, it's just that Mom Dani came out of nowhere. and he was he was this guy he got a lot of younger people behind him he said all the right things i'm going to give you free this and free that and free this and for a lot of these kids coming out of college it's like hey that that's wonderful i'm going to i'm not going to have to pay for
Starting point is 01:05:39 anything you know uh with quomo i think it was more he he dropped the ball as far as he expected to just get the vote he expected his name recognition entitled yeah he was he felt he was entitled to it. I think he felt he didn't have to work. I think Hillary actually fell into the same trap as well. Hillary just kind of figured, listen, you're going to vote for me because of who my husband is and Barack already gave me the blessing for it. It's my turn. It's my turn, you know, and I'm a woman, so you're going to vote for me. And then Trump came out of nowhere. I think Cuomo fell into that same trap. I don't think Newsom's going to fall into that trap. Like, he's already going on the podcast. He's already putting himself out there. He's already
Starting point is 01:06:20 got his own podcast. He's already going out there. and smiling and shaking hands and talking about other states other than California so he's not falling into that trap like I'm very very pro 2A like I'm as I'm about as as like I'm repeal the Hughes Amendment 2A pro 2A right like machine
Starting point is 01:06:37 guns should be sold in vending machines so when I saw Gavin Newsome go on the Sean Ryan show I was like this guy is going to be dangerous because that was very smart obviously the people that watch Sean Ryan all the time the people
Starting point is 01:06:53 that actually are really pro 2A. They know that Sean gave him a handgun. He's not going to, he ain't going to carry that. It's not like he's going to be down at the range, appendix carry, clearing his shirt, you know, that's not happening. But the fact that he went there and he was talking to him, he had a bunch of people that were conservative.
Starting point is 01:07:11 He had Charlie Kirk on his podcast. I'm talking about Gavin Newsom. I'm had Charlie Kirk on his podcast. These kind of things are going to be able to sway the people that are just a little moderate and one of the things that we said a lot before the 2000 or before the last election was there are very few moderates or there are very few undecided right like so the democrats are going to vote for whoever the nominee is so if it's if it's newsome there you go they're going to vote for newsome that's that's baked in and there's a small portion of people that you can sway
Starting point is 01:07:45 and again i'm i firmly believe that the economy is the actually the actually the actual most important topic all the time, every election. And if the economy is not doing well in come 2028, you know, the Republicans, whoever the Republican candidate is, is going to have a hard time. Because how do you distance yourself, if it is J.D. Vance, how do you distance yourself from Donald Trump? You know, because Donald Trump will not let you.
Starting point is 01:08:15 If you say, well, you know, that was Trump, Donald Trump will get on true social and just shit all over you. You know, I can imagine it. so you're not going to be able to distance yourself from Trump and if you're going up against someone like Gavin Newsom who is a chameleon or a lizard um which chameleons are lizard right yeah i think so um but yeah like you go up against that guy who can walk into a place with with moderates and they'll be like look man i can get behind this guy see he doesn't hate guns look didn't
Starting point is 01:08:46 just see him on Sean Ryan they don't have any idea what california's gun laws are like or they would say well you know they're not his fault they would he was only the governor for a couple years and those california gun laws have been like that there's a bunch of excuses that people can come up with so the idea that this guy is is someone that you can you know just just blow off i mean the thing to remember about at gavin newsome having lived in california is that he is a conniving psychopath and i think he's actually a brilliant psychopath that's part of the problem he's a brilliant but here's the thing he's a brilliant politician not in terms of policy or in terms of governing. In terms of the
Starting point is 01:09:23 rot and filth that makes politics what it is, he loves that stuff. And he knows that he loves that, like, he loves that he loves to be in that swamp and in the muck and he's really good at it. So perfect for the White House. Yeah, in many ways he is, and I'm not joking about that, yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:39 Because he knows how to be that politician. He wants to be at the very top. And to your guys' points about the short term memory, J.D. Vance was a never Trump or not that long ago. And the right forgave him. I just have a really hard time I hold a grudge against politicians. I can't imagine ever forgiving any of these people left or right for what they did during COVID.
Starting point is 01:09:58 And we're still feeling the ramifications for that. Yeah, I do. Yeah, I probably won't again, though. Probably done after the last time. I'll tell you this, though. Trump showed that the election comes down to the swing states. You're not going to go after the red states who are going to vote for the Republican. You're not going to go after the blue states that are just, you know, you might as well just call those states before anything comes in, right?
Starting point is 01:10:20 you're going to have to go for the swing states and the more Gavin Newsome which is what he's doing now looks like he's in the middle like you talk about the Sean Ryan show first thing he said was oh man yeah this is great this is great listen I'm not anti-gun I just want common sense stuff
Starting point is 01:10:37 and Sean Ryan didn't push back against him I saw so he was able to filibuster and he was able to talk and he was able to boost himself up as much as he could and the more he talked which is scary the more he came across as right in the middle. He didn't come across as an extreme to either side.
Starting point is 01:10:54 Hey, listen, I'm just a common sense guy. And this is who my mom was. And this is, you know, I didn't really know my father growing up. So now he's appealing to the guys who, you know, maybe came from broken homes. Didn't have a lot. Listen, this guy was a rich kid growing up. But the way he describes it, he was struggling. You know, he, I had a business, I had to hire my mom.
Starting point is 01:11:14 And we all sat down. So he comes across as very down home. very very middle of the road my story's just like yours and he comes across as very likable joe biden listen yeah joe biden every time he turned around every time he turned around yeah no i was i was catholic by raised i was grew up with a bunch of muslims and with raising the black church yeah yeah and pentecostals were right across the street we used to i need chinese food all the time he every time he turned around he came from someplace yeah and gavin usim is doing the same thing but better that's what makes him scary yeah he's
Starting point is 01:11:49 He won't get as much of the progressives and the radicals want someone, you know, the family, the photo of him and his family, they're Nazis, they're never going to get that. Like, there are going to be more moderates, and they don't, at the end of the day, they don't care what the color is. As long as that person is going to feed their policies and ideology into the government. I disagree. I do think, well, I think part of the reason why they had to go with Kamala was because she was a black woman. And they had like four days. That's when the tide started to turn on this whole, like, white, black thing in terms of like. how that picture would look
Starting point is 01:12:21 or be manipulated by other people. Also, remember, too, Biden was being painted as a racist. Yes. So he had to go out. Oh, that's, yeah, yeah, yeah. He had to go out and get himself a... For sure.
Starting point is 01:12:30 The closest thing to assist a girl he could get out. To make up for his... He was friends with busing. He was buzzing. She says she's black. You know, she's kind of tan. You know what? Let's go for it.
Starting point is 01:12:38 Let's go for it. Newsom doesn't have that hanging over his head. No. And that's why I go with Rokana, too. Also, I say Rokana might have a chance because he's more moderate and he has... He's very moderate, but he's not like super far left.
Starting point is 01:12:50 Whereas Gavin is super far left and crazy. Go ahead. Do you think that's... Well, no, I'm just wondering, do you guys think that, because what he said, do you think that that Newsom is actually super far left, or do you think that he's just a political animal that had been doing the things
Starting point is 01:13:10 that were necessary to win in California? Because it's my sense that I don't know what he truly believes. I don't know what he truly believes. I don't know what he. his actual politics are, I think that he's just extremely politically savvy and he's done the things necessary to win in the places that he's been running, which is why he's making a move to the center because he doesn't really believe. I don't know, I mean, I don't know what he believes, but he doesn't
Starting point is 01:13:36 really believe. He touched the sacred cow and said, oh, well, you know, it's a bad idea to have trans kids, trans women, you know, men competing against women. Like that is verboten in the Democrat part, in the progressive wing of the Democrat Party. But he's moved away from those kind of things because he knows they're unpopular. So is it, you know, and I'd like to hear from everybody. Like a chameleon. Well, yeah. He changes his colors.
Starting point is 01:14:02 Right? He's straight up. He is inauthentic, but he's charming at doing it. So he will be whatever, he's a vessel for whatever policy he thinks will get him the most political capital. Which is why he's dangerous. It's kind of an old school, bygone era way to play politics, which is that, which brings up the Joe Biden comparison.
Starting point is 01:14:17 but he knows how to like kind of retrofit that old school style to 2025, but it's still the same thing. It's Hillary with the hot sauce, but like a little more charm. Yeah, more believable in charm. Yeah, yeah. It's not as in your face with Hillary playing dominoes up in Spanish Harlem. She's so crazy. She got a hot sauce in her purse and I don't think anybody believe that one. No one believed that. But he is the type like, but that's why I think he's going on these podcasts the way he did. He actually looked at how Kamala Harris avoided all the podcasts and said, you know what?
Starting point is 01:14:53 That's going to be the first thing I do. So when he's on the podcast, he's not going on Joe Rogan, because Joe Rogan will eat him alive. You think so? Oh, absolutely. He left California. I love to see that. That'd be, yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:05 If you want to be president, he needs to go on. If he goes on Joe Rogan, I'll give him his props. He will. I bet you he will. He's such a narcissist. And he'll be so smooth and, like, raties. He doesn't care about pushback. He'll do it, and he'll wait until the
Starting point is 01:15:17 summer before the election he won't do it early he's not he's not going to he's going to do it people like he'll do it like july june or july he's he's thinking he says joe rogan has already come out and said i don't like him so he's not going to be able to do what he did on sean ryan like like if you notice when he went on shan ryan joe rogan actually texted shan i saw that yeah a question yeah and he did everything but answer the question that joe rogan posed to him on Sean Ryan's show. He talked in circles all the way around that question and then came out on the other side.
Starting point is 01:15:56 No, it's brilliant what he does. Do you guys see his interview with Steve Bannon? No. It was great. So he did that for an hour. And at the end of the populace, he's like, see, we're both just populists here. We're just populist talking.
Starting point is 01:16:05 See, he's a genius. He's a genius for that kind of reptile figure. I'm not going to take away from him. He is a brilliant politician. Just an evil politician. Like what you guys said, he's a lizard. a chameleon, he's super dangerous. Therefore, he's dangerous. Yes. Yes. That's my, honestly, my point for kind of directing the conversation this way is I
Starting point is 01:16:25 think that there are too many people that don't, that are on the right, that think that, you know, we've come into a, you know, a golden age and Trump and then, of course, it's going to be Vance and the Democrats, because they're, they're polling so low, they're never going to win. And that is a recipe for disaster. Because, and I've asked, you know, who do you guys, think are talented on the on the democrat side and there are a lot of people like nobody they're all dumb blah blah because they're all talking with their opinion about what they say or how they feel about those people and they're not taking a realistic political view on these people and they're not thinking about how dangerous is this person how how capable is this person to come
Starting point is 01:17:11 across to the again the very small amount of people that can actually be swayed you You know, I mean, it's maybe there are 10 million people in America that actually could be swayed, you know, throughout the whole country. Otherwise, everyone's kind of locked into their, their teams. And I think it's really important for conservatives and people on the right to address that and look at that as what it is, which is very dangerous. Because if someone like Gavin Newsom gets in, the Democrats take, you know, take control of the House and Senate and they get the presidency. you know that they will be arresting conservatives. They will do all of the stuff that Joe Biden was doing. They will put all of their bureaucrat friends back into positions of authority.
Starting point is 01:17:58 They will be going after conservatives. They did it in, they've been doing it since 2012 with the IRS stuff that Lois Lerner was doing it. They didn't stop. They continued and it will only get worse. So it's, in my opinion, it's a very, it's very important for people on the right to understand. that they will be coming after you. They will be coming after you. If you don't abide by their rules,
Starting point is 01:18:24 if you don't want your kid to go to a school that is teaching LGBT stuff, they will come to your house, they will take your kid from you, and they will treat you like you're a criminal because they'll say you're hateful. There will be hate speech laws. It will be an absolute nightmare.
Starting point is 01:18:40 All the things you see in the UK that will come here. And if you look at what's going on in the UK, it is an effing nightmare. We're like you, they arrest like 3,000 people a year for Facebook posts. They arrest more people in the UK for Facebook posts than there have been people in Russia arrested for speaking out against Putin. And Russia is a, you know, pure dictatorship.
Starting point is 01:19:04 And if you think that that can't happen here, just look at COVID. That did happen here. And it will only be worse. So it's vitally important for people to not think that Republicans are a shoe in. It's vitally important for people. people to understand that should someone like AOC or should someone like Gavin Newsom win, that all that stuff is back on the table. And they will, it's, it's just like when Biden was president, but it'll be way worse. This whole Newsom talk might have just real quick,
Starting point is 01:19:31 change my mind because Roecona, he's moderate and he's authentic. I feel like he believes what he, I feel like he believes what he believes. And that's not going to get him elected. Whereas Newsom is a slimy rat lizard and he'll do whatever he says to get himself. But even if it's Roecona, he'll still appoint the same bureaucrats. And so, like, to me, it's, as much as the, like, Newsom is scary because he could get elected and that's the thing that's bad. Yeah. It doesn't matter which one of them gets elected. They're still going to appoint the same bureaucrats with the same opinions and they're still going to do the same stuff.
Starting point is 01:20:00 So whether it be Rokana or whether it be AOC or whether it be Newsom or whether it be Jasmine Crockett or whoever, right? It doesn't matter because it'll be the, it'll be the bureaucrats underneath them. Yeah. It'll be that will be using the DOJ to go after conservatives. It'll be the bureaucrats underneath them that will be saying, oh, we need to bolster the Department of Education because of all the stuff that Trump did. And they're going to, it'll be a nightmare. So what no one's talking about, though, which scares me, which keeps me up at night.
Starting point is 01:20:33 No one's talking about the Supreme Court. Yeah. Because we're talking about, okay, you know, we got three and a half years of Trump left, right? And then we've got, potentially, if Gavin Newsom gets into office, another eight years of him. And how many Supreme Court appointments is he going to have? That's going to wildly swing our Constitution back the other way. Because if you have the Supreme Court, you control the Supreme Court, you can override the Bill of Rights. So, Second Amendment is going to be severely restricted federally.
Starting point is 01:21:06 Free speech, the First Amendment, is going to be severely affected. federally. We're talking about everything that's going on with the illegals right now in the border. Eight years of being able to go after the 14th Amendment is going to be wild. So, I mean, that's what we're looking at right now with a potential Gavin Newsom presidency. Look how bad the four years of Biden was with the border in particular, in what you're saying, I totally agree. People should not be underestimated in the left. I think to Trump winning the second term, remobilized, re-energized the left, and they're turning into a beast. A big bigger beast, you know, that you can't underestimate.
Starting point is 01:21:43 Like, we were like, let's go, let's go America, let's go vote for the Republicans. Let's vote for Trump. And now that one, we're like, hey, you know, we're not as energized as we would, should be, as we should be. We should definitely not take our foot off the pedal and keep that is going. All gas, no brakes. We're going to jump to this story here from the New York Post. Michigan City Councilman caught on camera stuffing an election drop box with absentee ballots days before primary. A Michigan City Council member was caught on camera stuffing.
Starting point is 01:22:10 stuffing an election drop box with apparent absentee ballots just days before he won his re-election bid in a local primary. Hamtrak city council member Abu Musa was seen in the passenger seat of a car on August 1st handing stacks of paper to the car's driver who then dumped them into a nearby ballot box. footage obtained by Local 4 appears to show. Musa held onto his re-election spot in the primary four days later on August 5th beating out 11 other candidates with 1,129 votes. But only 286 of those votes were cast on Election Day with 843 being cast by absentee ballot, the Daily Mail reported. Musa would have placed fifth without the absentee ballots, according to the mail. Footage of the ballot box dump emerged earlier in August just a day after two hamotrack.
Starting point is 01:22:58 Council members were arraigned on election fraud charges over a 2023 investigation. That investigation was sparked after a city clerk noted absentee ballots were being dropped off in large bundles and filled out. with suspiciously similar handwriting. And while Musa was named in the investigation, he was not charged. But along with another member of the city council, he is at the center of an investigation into whether he's actually a resident of Hamatrack, something required to hold his city council position. He has denied these allegations local four reported. So, I mean, this is not important on a national level, specifically, but it speaks to the type of
Starting point is 01:23:40 thing that you have to worry about when it comes to absentee ballots and the type of thing you have to worry about when it comes to multiple days of voting. And that's one of the reasons why I think it's great that Donald Trump is making the executive order that he is. Now, again, like we were saying earlier, or the piece said earlier, the states do decide how they do their elections, right? That's constitutional. But that doesn't mean that the federal government can't say you can do your elections however you want, but they have to be done on this day. And you're You can't do absentee ballots. You can't do early voting.
Starting point is 01:24:13 You can't do late voting, et cetera, et cetera. The federal government can make some rules. And I do think that things like when the voting is allowed to start, when the voting is allowed to, you know, must end by. I think those are something that the federal government can rule on. What do you guys think? I like eight to eight on voting day, eight to eight. You know, sedimented day.
Starting point is 01:24:37 Absity ballots, if you're in the military, that's fine. fair yeah um maybe if you're a mobile and you're in medicaid you know if you're older folk maybe there's exceptions for certain rules if you can't get in there but otherwise just eight to eight i'm okay with paper balance as well we don't need anything crazy we can do electronics i mean i'm just saying one day one day get it done in and out i'm okay with no electronics sure just get rid of them i mean that used to be a bipartisan issue i remember elizabeth warren complaining about the machines 10 or 15 years ago you know and then when trump does it it's a bad thing but she had the same issues with the machines that I don't think can be trusted.
Starting point is 01:25:13 I think it's very telling that the fact that the Democrats really don't care about securing our elections. Yeah, it's weird. They're just like, hey, listen, free-for-all, hey, you know what? You want to put your mom's name on there and your grandmother and your mom and my mom and everybody else on it. Go right ahead and you. How long you've been in the country? Oh, you're not supposed to be in your country. Go ahead, vote, you know? We don't need your IDs? Yeah, we don't need your ID. I just show up, you know? So, I mean, The fact that they have no concern about securing the cornerstone of our Republic, of our Democratic Republic, is extremely telling. And it lets me know what their agenda is.
Starting point is 01:25:51 I mean, when you look at just everything with the illegals that's going on right now, and if the numbers came out there, if we were to get rid of every illegal in this country, the Democrats would lose something like 26 seats or something like a crazy number. they have they know it gives them an advantage yes they know that the weaker the election laws are the stronger they are and it's not about them it's not about countries it's not about securing the countries for them it's not about the best possible candidate forward to them it's about staying in power so we need to be doing everything we can to fight against that amen yeah i mean look the the democrats have been making you know save our democracy their their battle cry for ages now and all the while they've been doing everything they can to shore up their power and none of it has been democratic um i mean whether it be the throwing your your the leading
Starting point is 01:26:49 candidate of your opposition in jail or arresting him and trying to throw him in jail which it's still possible i mean there's there's a the suspended whatever the case would that suspended like trump could get done with his he brought back a library book late to the library back in 1974 You know, they're doing everything you can to basically fabricate, you know, charges against them. They've thrown all of his lawyers in jail, or they charge them, just for being his lawyer. Like, they're like, oh, well, you're part of a conspiracy. It's like, they're his lawyers. This is something that's guaranteed by the Constitution.
Starting point is 01:27:22 They're not interested in any way in democracy or due process or legitimate act, legitimately acquiring power. They're just looking to throw their opponents. in jail. I mean, yeah, commies. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, my opinion is that we live in a crypto-communist government. Yep. You know, and I mean, it's, it's there, but it's hidden. That's why we were able to have Biden as president for, you know, four years, and he's got mashed potatoes for brains, and still things do escalate and get worse. It's because of the unelected, you know, 30-year bureaucrats that have basically put themselves in charge of our freedoms. And they're not saving, like you said earlier, and just as just clicked them head, you know,
Starting point is 01:28:01 save our democracy. Why don't they say save, I mean, I know why they don't say, I mean, I know why they don't say save the democracy. The United Save the, you know what I mean? I don't want to get into it, but just has clicked like those. But we're going to get into it. You know what I mean? It's like save the democracy. If they really care about saving anything, they should say the, the foundation. I know we're not democracy, but instead of saying ours,
Starting point is 01:28:22 they'd be like save the, save the country, not save our country. It was the same thing in communist China, right? So Mao decided that there were, you had either a red personality or you had a black personality. If you were a property owner, if you were some kind of capitalist something, they said that you had a black personality and they said that if you were actually a member of the Communist Party, you had a red personality. And you could do things to go from a black personality to a red personality. But they would say things like they, as in the people with the black personality, are after our democracy. Because according to communists, they would
Starting point is 01:28:56 swear up and down that they're a true democracy. Only the communists are the true democracy. They do it all the time. And that was one of the things that Mao said, they didn't shine all the time. They were like, they're after our democracy, our democracy. But it's not theirs, right? Those people aren't included in our democracy. So when the Democrats are saying, our democracy, they're not including conservatives. They're not including people on the right. They're not including Trump voters. They're not part of our democracy. They are excluded from our democracy. And you can see it in the way that they behave. people that are are conservatives or right wing or trump voters or whatever they don't get the
Starting point is 01:29:37 same protections that people in their democracy do they are to be excluded and it's it's a it's something that is again typical of just like chris said it's typical of communist countries there was one other point that i'll come back to that i wanted to once you said um that there we live in a crypt basically a crypto communist country right now um but i it i'd slip my mind so um instead of dwelling on that. I'll just say this one last thing. Remember, like, growing up, we used to read about, like, Latin American countries, you know, like, you know, Noriega where it was like, you know, he threw his, he threw his opposition
Starting point is 01:30:15 in jail. Oh, he did this. He did that, you know, he's being a dictator. How dare he goes. And then it's like, okay, but you just finished doing the exact same thing. And they're like, oh, no, but that's different. You know, that doesn't count, you know. It's okay.
Starting point is 01:30:27 He actually did something bad. Yeah. He actually did something wrong. All right, we're going to jump to this story here. A semi-truck driver arrested after making an illegal U-turn on Florida highway killing three people. Harjinder Singh, who authorities say had entered the U.S. illegally, has been charged with three counts of vehicular homicide. A man has been arrested in Florida after making an illegal U-turn on a highway that resulted in a deadly crash that killed three people. Harjinder Singh, who authorities say has entered the U.S. illegally, has been charged with three counts of vehicular homicide.
Starting point is 01:31:00 According to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, state troopers responded to a crash on Florida's turnpike in St. Lucie County on August 12th. The collision involved a minivan and a commercial semi-truck and trailer. Based on initial investigations, the incident occurred after the driver of the commercial semi-truck recklessly and without regard for safety of others attempted to execute a U-turn in an unauthorized location. The driver of the semi was later identified as Singh who crossed the Mexican border illegally in 2018 and later obtained a commercial driver's license in California. As a result of his actions, the three occupants of the minivan are now deceased.
Starting point is 01:31:37 State troopers obtained a criminal arrest warrant for the driver. Hardier Singh for three counts of vehicular homicide, a press release stated. The actions taken by the defendant while operating a commercial tractor trailer are both shocking and criminal, or said executive directive David Kern. Three people lost their lives as a result of this recklessness, and countless friends and family members will experience the pain of their loss forever. Look, this is emblematic of why conservatives and people on the right are so against not just having illegal immigrants, not just having the national language be English, but also making sure that people that are here legally can't get any kind of ID. The state of California did this.
Starting point is 01:32:20 They gave this guy a CDL, which not only did they give him a license, which would be bad enough, but it's a commercial driver's license. It blows my mind that this guy who's here illegally was able to do this. And I mean, I've gone over my personal opinions of how we should deal with the illegal aliens in the country multiple times. But clearly, this is not acceptable. These three people are dead and they don't, you know, there's no restart. You know, that's it. Because this guy not only was empowered by the state of California, but also because he's a moron. you can't drive.
Starting point is 01:32:58 Yo, CDLs are big deal. Like, you just can't get one. They're, if you go to school, like, I, like, I tried for it when I was younger. You have to go to school, you got to get valid driver's size, clean record, medical, pass a thing, you know, go to, um, air brakes, you know, you got to learn a lot of stuff. And this is, I don't know, I may go off a tangent here, but this is why I hate Newsome. This is why I hate these people like Democrats and land these illegals. And three innocent American civilians, citizens have died because they let this illegal alien
Starting point is 01:33:26 come in and get a CDL and there's driving the road and he just killed people and they do it they do it a lot they do more than they want to talk about I couldn't find stats about how many um illegals um CDL drivers have killed people in general but we had a couple years ago where the one guy go down the one hill and he couldn't he didn't hit his brakes there's there's lots of stories of folks driving CDLs and just in rape and murder and just illegal and go off on a tangent and it's just disgusting and we need to stop this I just can't over how unbothered he was. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:33:58 Over, running over three people. It's like he's playing Grand Theft Auto, and he's just, you know, oh, well, and let me just keep going. He was just completely unbothered. And if this is the type of person who is coming into the country and that California is giving CELs to, God knows who else is out there driving around, who isn't supposed to be here in their first place, but it's transporting cargo. Like, you know, this guy, like, he didn't even look.
Starting point is 01:34:28 And then the guy in the passenger seat was just like, oh, well, like, he's got his foot up. You know, he's on TikTok right now. Yeah, he's this guy. He's doom scrolling on Instagram right now. So, you know, it just shows how dangerous the, a porous open southern border can be to the rest of the country in ways we haven't even thought of. Will this be used against Newsom when he's running officially? I don't think so. They'll try to, but nobody will care.
Starting point is 01:34:52 I don't think it's going to stick. If this happened in the summer before he got 11th, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Or before the, before the vote, yeah. But I think this is probably, I mean, someone might try. If he does, you know, I imagine some, you know, political strategist or whatever would dig it up. But I don't know that it'll have traction. Yeah, this will be like a thousand years ago by the time they get there.
Starting point is 01:35:12 I don't know why I couldn't find stats on how many illegal CDL drivers have killed people. They said there's 1,500 people have died in the last year, but they don't, they don't, nothing about what their status is. yeah look i mean personally i think that the again the more we can do to make make it hard for illegals to stay here the better this company that that actually employed him yes they need to lose their they need to lose their business whoever owns the business that harsh needs to yeah oh yeah 100% killed three people no i understand i'm just i'm just they shouldn't they should not have employed him california shouldn't have given him a license right but these people that employed him the company whoever runs the company should go to jail too because he made that he is responsible for this he hired an illegal put him in you know try him and put him in jail I don't know what I don't know what the accessory to murder maybe yeah you know I'm not sure sure what the charge should be but he should lose his business he like this should be this this company should be used as an example like put the owner in jail take away all of his property auction it off and make sure that every
Starting point is 01:36:23 Everybody in the country knows that the reason he's in jail as an accessory to murder is because he hired an illegal, right? Put the, obviously the driver should go to jail for the rest of his life, right? I don't care. People are like, oh, you know, shipping back. No, put him in jail. I'll get him in Alcatraz. Yeah, put him in, no, I mean, that's only for shipping people out. Put him in the real Alcatraz.
Starting point is 01:36:43 Yeah. And put him in a real federal prison, right? Not some kind of white collar thing in a real federal prison for the rest of his life. and they should use these people and this company as an example. You shouldn't be allowed, it shouldn't be okay to hire people that are illegal. And one of the things that I agree with Democrats about, and they probably don't actually mean this, but they always say, well, you know, you should go after the companies that hire them.
Starting point is 01:37:10 Yeah, you should. 100%. Absolutely. And you should make it really brutal if they get caught hiring illegals. Because the point of that and the point of that is to make sure that they don't hire illegals to make it too risky to make it not worth hiring illegals so that way illegals can't find jobs and so that way illegals leave the country of their own volition so you don't have to have ice going door to door rounding people up the more difficult it is for illegals to live in the united
Starting point is 01:37:39 states the harder it is for them to find a place to live you should take the property if people are renting to them take their property i love it see it you're renting to illegals you know they're illegals, we're taking your house. You're taking your building because you rent the two illegals. You do that kind of stuff and you'll see illegals leaving in droves because I can't find a place to live. I can't get a job
Starting point is 01:38:01 because no one will hire me because they're terrified. The government will take my ass. Let them know they're not wanted here. Yeah. Unless you come in the freaking right way. Point is to make it too difficult for them to live here so that way ice doesn't have to go and round people up. You don't
Starting point is 01:38:17 have to see dudes and masks and with body armor grabbing people and throwing them on the ground so Karen doesn't get her hair all in a tiff right so that way you just make it too difficult so these people are like man it ain't worth it i can't find a job nobody'll hire me you know you got to go to the u.s legally if you're going to get a job you got to get a green card you got to come in legally make it absolutely brutal if people hire them make it absolutely brutal if people rent to them and this is the this is this is as as it is, this is the perfect opportunity to make an
Starting point is 01:38:53 example of people. This guy goes to jail for the rest of his life. The owner of the company goes to jail for a long time, has an accessory to murder. Take his company. Take the whole thing. Auction it off. There are a bunch of companies that will buy his trucks. Are you trying to be Secretary Nome's assistant? I would never
Starting point is 01:39:09 work for the government. Okay. Just on it out there. I will say the N-word on Maine before I work for the government. I lied. It wasn't 1,500. It was It was 5,900 about death for a big truck. So in a year. I agree with everything you said.
Starting point is 01:39:25 It was the 22's last stats. So it's a lot. It's a lot. I agree with everything you said. However, California will fight tooth and nail to make sure that this guy's on his own. They will leave him out there in the cold. But they will fight tooth and nail to make sure that their illegals are protected and loved and taken care of because that's their lifeblood. so and counted in the census and counted in the census and everything else do you think that it's possible
Starting point is 01:39:56 that there could be federal charges because i understand i agree totally california there's a lot of states that'd be like we're sanctuary cities sanctuary cities and you know this better than most people sanctuary city just means that the local law enforcement doesn't help the feds so do you think that there's any kind of federal there's any kind of possibility for the feds to pass a law that says you that federally you go to federal prison if you if well because actually i should be able to do that right like they're if they hire illegals that could be a federal offense so i mean and because again i like i said i totally agree with you about the states but if you have the feds do the actual prosecution right they get arrested by
Starting point is 01:40:34 federal agents the fbi picks them up and then they get arrested then they get prosecuted federally by the doj you can kind of circumvent the the states right i think you run into a uh a fourth amendment problem there just because only only like like said bro i agree with you 100. No, I'm, I'm, I think you run into a problem. Yeah. Because now you're, your, how do you, how do you determine who's hiring illegals and who isn't? Besides hanging out outside of a Home Depot and, and jumping out of the ice truck and then you see them all scattered.
Starting point is 01:41:06 But if you go into a private business and you say, hey, do you have any illegals working here? Do they have to hire you? I mean, do they have to answer you? I don't know. So I think you run into a potential problem. there. Like with me, I'm a constitutionalist, so I'm kind of just like, okay, like, as much as I want to do something, I don't want to set a bad precedent. But, I mean, I just, I think that California will do everything they can to protect their illegals, because that's their lifeblood. Illinois will do everything they can to protect their illegals. That's it. New York will do everything, well, at least under Kathy Hochel, hopefully, you know, something. But at least under Kathy Hochel, they'll do everything they'll do everything they can to protect, protect their illegals because that's their lifeblood. So they'll leave this guy out in the cold. They will turn into the biggest constitutionalist you've ever met in your life
Starting point is 01:42:00 if you go after their illegals. I think that, I think you're probably right. But I think that it would be worth trying and bringing to the Supreme Court to find out, you know, because maybe, maybe you do run into some kind of problem, a constitutional issue. But if they can, if the Fed, heads, if the DOJ were to decide, well, we're going to push this issue and see if we can get the SCOTUS on our side and get the SCOTUS to rule, that could be a way to do it. But I think your point is well taken, though. I think if ICE wants to start doing investigations, like if the FBI wants to do an undercover op into which businesses are hiring illegals, which FBI, hey, listen, if you need someone who's got
Starting point is 01:42:44 undercover sort of experience, I can help you out. Cash Patel. Because listen, Cash Patel, because listen, some of your agents really need help. I'm just letting you know. Give me a call. But if they want to start doing undercover operations or just looking at which businesses might potentially be hiring illegals and do an operation that way, so that they can have, they can go in there and do it legally and say,
Starting point is 01:43:08 hey, listen, we've caught 20 illegals in your business. So now we're going to open an investigation into seeing what, your hiring practices or that I'm all for, but to just hang out outside of a business and just sort of pat down everybody who comes in, you're going to run into a problem. Fair enough. I think your idea sounds great. The Fourth Amendment says private businesses do not have absolute protection. Public-facing businesses, like a storefront or whatnot, they have very little protection, but when they have private business records, they have more of protection than just a storefront, like accounting records in the office.
Starting point is 01:43:41 Okay. So it's all like case-by-case apparently. It's, they're just, treated, uh, the courts treat business premises differently depending on the type of business and what is being searched. And I'm trying to look for people, but I didn't find any people illegal. Listen, I would, I would love to like, as you said, have illegals be scared to do anything in this country because they're like, listen, I'm illegal. I don't know what, I would love that. Listen, you come back, you do it the right way. We'll open the door for you. But while you hear illegally, listen, you should be afraid to walk down the street. And I'm all for that. But I think you run into a problem. You're probably right. I had to,
Starting point is 01:44:14 and thought about that. You're probably right. But, you know, I think the big reason why I want to see this kind of stuff happen is because then you don't have all the protests against, you know, you don't have officers having to put hands on people, having to fight with people, having to deal with protesters. They'll just leave of their own volition. You don't have Karen out there screaming and hollering and getting in, you know, ICE agents face. It's safer. And all of the dangerous things that come with interactions with crazy people in the public and police officers or in law. enforcement right because i mean you know better than anybody else when you have to actually deal with people things can go bad and and people get crazy you know like yes especially i feel like especially
Starting point is 01:44:54 women because they're like they're like oh i can just push this guy around because you know he won't do anything because i'm a woman and it's like well so anyways um i think now we are going to go to super chats right yeah we're going to go to super chats so smash the like button share the show with all of your friends tell everyone that you love timcast dot com or that you'd love Timcast, IRL. Go on over to Timcast.com, become a member and join our Discord, and then head on over to rumble.com and become a member
Starting point is 01:45:22 so you can join the after show and call in from the Discord. Maybe you'll meet a girl in Discord, and then you can make a family and have some babies and stuff. But right now, we're going to do some super chats. It's a big selling point. That was a leap right there. I think it's happened. We had multiple people in the Discord get married,
Starting point is 01:45:38 like three or four couples got married. Really? Yeah. And it is a regular occurrence where when people are having a baby, they will super chat and let us know that they just had a baby or they're about to have a baby their wife's in labor in labor so we're very pro baby around
Starting point is 01:45:51 oh yeah like every day usually someone's like yo we're about to have a baby right now it's pretty awesome pro family pro baby all that good stuff so Shane H Wilder says prayers for Tim's recovery I'm glad he's taking the time because I know how it is the power through when you shouldn't it sucks
Starting point is 01:46:07 when you lose your voice especially when it's how you make a living it does my buddy my friend it is awful we were do we did a tour back in like 2008 we were doing a tour and my voice went out on me it was a great tour we were out within flames and we did two weeks of the tour and we had like another four left or something like that i went to the doctor and the doctor's like yo you need to go home and you need you can't talk for the next six weeks because they're like if your if your vocal cords don't look different when you come back when you go see another doctor you're gonna have to get have a biopsy and make sure
Starting point is 01:46:38 you don't have throat cancer so it is did you have a fill in or did you something have to fill in No, man, I had to go home. You filled in for a big band once. I filled in for Kill Switch Engage. I filled in for a five-finger death punch. Right, right. That's open for Metallica. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:46:50 It was... Great pictures. At the same place that Taylor's... At the same arena that Taylor Swift played at, like, a week later. And the Metallica show had more people. How would not talk about James Comey loving Taylor Swift today? Look, man, James Comey is terrible, but, you know, everybody has one or two redeeming qualities. Wait, no, false.
Starting point is 01:47:08 Likeing Taylor Swiss is a redeeming quality. Oh, he likes Taylor Swift. Oh, that's right. Phil's a 50. Can you tell? Look at them. Look at Phil. Look at Phil.
Starting point is 01:47:13 I just got a death stare. Holy moly. I like Taylor's. My door's a swiftly. And every now I find myself humming something. I'm like, no, stop. Those earworms, man, they get you. No, stop.
Starting point is 01:47:27 All right. Ngetty says, Phil, you are incorrect that Russia wants to take all of Ukraine. They would need a minimum of five million troops in country. There's zero chance they can do that. He said it like when he did the Tucker Carlson interview. Like maybe he didn't specifically say it, but he was talking about how Ukraine is actually where Russia comes from, the Kiev and Rousse and all. He went to that big whole history thing. It may not be realistic, but I do think that it's highly likely that Vladimir Putin would like to if he could.
Starting point is 01:47:59 So you can say that, you know, you can say what you want, but I think that Putin has made it pretty clear that he wants to. I mean, they drove a convoy. Like when he first invaded, he drove a convoy to Kiev because they were trying to grab. take Kiev and didn't work out so well. So maybe they can't, right? Maybe they couldn't do it. But to say that he doesn't want to, I think that's wrong. So I'm going to head out.
Starting point is 01:48:24 Oh, yes. Off to my show. See you guys later. That was a really fun show. I was seeing all you guys. We'll be live on YouTube and Rumble at 10 o'clock. I'm going to run there right now. Be out of breath when we start.
Starting point is 01:48:35 But we'll take phone calls till midnight. It's going to be a fun one and talk about pregnant robots in China and hear from you guys. So see you all next. time. Later. That's good, man. Have a great show. I'll get home and it'll already be on the TV.
Starting point is 01:48:47 All right. Cool. All right. Mac 12 says they are just trying to get away from the MSDNC moniker. I don't agree, man. I feel like they're actually... They're failures. Yeah, but I mean, look, they kind of laid out why they had to make the change in it, you know?
Starting point is 01:49:08 Because they're failures. It's like I said, slap. the fresh-coded paint. Yeah. The shed's still crumbling down, but it's got a fresh-coated paint on it. It looks pretty, but the inside's rotted. Philip Halm says,
Starting point is 01:49:21 Hey, Phil, I just wanted to give you a shout-out to you and Tim because y'all finally got off my lazy butt and started my first company at 24. Nice. Up and Beyond Toys. Just wanted to say thank you for motivating me to get after it. Congratulations. If you are a member of the Discord or if you're watching right now,
Starting point is 01:49:40 go check out Up and Beyond Toys. assuming you could probably just Google them Up and Beyond Toys. But yeah, go ahead and support these fine young men that are starting businesses and grabbing a hold of their destiny. Just real quick on the Up and Beyond Toys thing, anime is big nowadays. It's huge.
Starting point is 01:50:02 I guess apparently I've seen a news article that one in three people, youngans watch anime. And they pirate a lot of the anime. They will pirate it, but then they'll buy product. of the anime. And that's why anime makes their money. So up and beyond toys, throwing it out there, you know,
Starting point is 01:50:18 maybe make some up and beyond anime toys, you know, hot little chicks with, you know, wifus. I was getting ready to say, talk about families and making babies, you know, go to a couple of these anime conventions. Oh, yeah? They make families at the anime.
Starting point is 01:50:33 They make families, all right. Even if it's just for a night, you make families. All right. Even if it's for AI. Jacob Hawley says, breaking Texas Dems have returned to the Texas House after being forced by party leadership.
Starting point is 01:50:46 They won't flee anymore and will vote on the next house map. They lost. How feckless, sad. Grow a spine, Dems. Come on. What a win for the GOP though. I mean, I like the fact that they're going to have to vote on it. I mean, I would like to see Texas redistrict and I would
Starting point is 01:51:05 like to see more Republicans in Congress. Dennis, remember that last Thursday, they already passed it. Last Thursday, I thought, test the redistricting even though they didn't come in I thought that was the whole we had a whole conversation they they voted on it they lost and the Democrat
Starting point is 01:51:21 the Texas Democrats all got up and left like in protest and I think now it moves to the Texas Senate or something like that now it moves up another step now but basically they won yeah I'm not sure the the detail but yeah look man I want to see
Starting point is 01:51:37 redistricting I want to see the Republicans do as much as they can to shut out Democrats as possible. If it's if it's questionably legal, I'm fine with it. Take the power and run with it, right? Yeah, I mean, look, when the Republican, or when the Democrats are in power,
Starting point is 01:51:53 they will abuse the law. So if you ain't cheating, you ain't trying. So my dad taught me. And the best news is Jasmine Boquisha Crockett might lose her seat. Right, yes. All the redistricting, so. She'll probably move to California.
Starting point is 01:52:07 Well, what was her middle name again? Boquisha. That's my nickname for her. Shout out to everybody who follows me on next. Okay. Jasmine Boe Queesha. Fitz. Hal Galey says no need to concede territory.
Starting point is 01:52:21 Putin didn't invade to own land. He invaded to gain the access owning it gives. DMZ it. Russia leaves. UA allows are you unfettered access through those regions to Crimea? Well, I mean, excuse me, maybe. But I still think that, you know, I think that Putin actually wants to take
Starting point is 01:52:41 Ukraine the history is very deep there between Ukraine and Russia and I think that Putin looks at Ukraine
Starting point is 01:52:49 as part of Russia even though they have different languages I still think Putin's like eh you're part of Russia so we're just
Starting point is 01:52:55 going to take it back well if Keith was the capital forever like I would imagine I'd want it back too if I was him the Kiev and Rus
Starting point is 01:53:04 I guess is where Russia came from so I don't know I'm not extremely informed on Russian-Ukrainian history, but I did watch the interview with Putin and Tucker did, yeah, so. Because he went deep, hardcore then.
Starting point is 01:53:19 Yeah, and he really wanted the opportunity to explain to an American audience. And how they're, uh, Tucker, the traitor. I'm just kidding, but you know what I mean? Yeah, like the point of him doing that, like going into that history is because he wanted the American, you know, or English-speaking audience to under. stand whether or not you believe believe what he says you know like whatever like when it comes to his motivations i mean look he's going to lie he's you know he's a kgb guy and you know nation states lie president's lie probably what probably masad as well i don't think that is i'm just
Starting point is 01:53:57 you know isn't everybody massad i mean you know that's what i'm hearing online i don't know but yeah mcbeefrod said day one listener and i haven't missed one yet oh awesome nice i love the show Recently, y'all started putting the clips in the full podcast playlist on YouTube. This is extremely annoying. Why the change? I have no idea. I don't either. What do you say?
Starting point is 01:54:21 The full podcast? He said that you've been started putting the clips in the full podcast playlist on YouTube. So the clips are going in. He's got to go to the lives then, bro. No, no, some of the playlist. I don't know why that is. But, yo, Kellen. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:54:36 Help them out. But you have my deepest apologies. Yeah. I'm sorry that it's annoying. I'll talk to a blue sweater. Oh, God. He doesn't do that either. Let's see.
Starting point is 01:54:48 Well, I don't want to say that. Button says, Newsom is further left than you think and politically savvy. He runs as center every single time, then implements insane policy, works for moderates and progressives based on Messenger. I mean, look, he's done that. that, but he's also in California, or he's been, you know, he's been in California, how he would govern on a national level? I don't know, because like I said, I don't think that he's particularly ideological. I mean, listen, all I need to hear is that Nancy Pelosi's his, his auntie or something like that. Is she? I think so. Really? His auntie, his, oh, yeah, somebody, she's
Starting point is 01:55:33 raised him somehow. Through marriage, his answer to marriage. Yeah. So, I mean, listen, to me, it's more Pelosi crime family stuff. You know, Gavin Newsom, his politics are going to be whatever it needs to be at the current moment. You know, you're a Second Amendment guy. Yeah, you know what? I love the Second Amendment. I want to protect it. I just want to do common sense
Starting point is 01:55:53 things to make sure people protect. And by the end of the conversation, you're like, he's not so bad. So he's going to do whatever it takes to win. Yeah. And then the policy has turned your AR-15s in. Yeah. Let's see. Let's see. Kai says Trump may get this challenge on the courts and force mail-in votes to be voided. Mail-in votes were only legally allowed via courts and governor-executive order.
Starting point is 01:56:22 Mail-in votes are different from absentee. Look, man, I love the, I love that. Yeah. You know, go ahead. No, I was going to say that makes a lot of sense. Mail-in compared to absentee where it's like the military and or folks of Medicare is a way different story. Absentee compared to mail-in style. So, yeah, that's a great super chat.
Starting point is 01:56:39 Makes sense. Yeah, I agree. Let's see. Thanks, Phil. Yeah, he said, only the, Kai said, went on to say, only the legislature at the state level can change how they vote. So, it's true. Janet West says Trump tightened the economic screws on Russia, the European Tariff Agreement and the India Tariff Negotiation, both main buyers of Russian oil. Yeah, I mean, the most.
Starting point is 01:57:09 more pressure the Trump administration puts on Putin the better for the possibility of a peace deal in Ukraine but I don't know that enough can be done to actually make Russia stop their aggressive
Starting point is 01:57:25 posture. The first sanctions didn't do crap. They didn't do anything. The sections made no difference. They're fine. Russia's thriving. They're cool. So didn't make a difference. Big Walt says, the Timcast tradition, sending my first super chat from the hospital recovery room with my first
Starting point is 01:57:44 son. Congratulations. That's what we like to hear. Around here, we are a very pro-family. Now, make more. More babies.

Starting point is 01:59:23 Or wolf and sheep's clothing I think he's Yeah he's kind of authentic I've watched him on more than I watch a bunch of Tim A bunch of other podcasts He feels like he's who he is Though he's not
Starting point is 01:59:34 Probably more left as people Like Newsome Yeah Lorenzo Greasy Bottom says Phil is paid by the Jews Tim is not Jewish Tim is not Jewish I get a little bit of money from Oh wait a minute
Starting point is 01:59:50 Oh you are I got one of my tenants at my place in New Hampshire is Jewish So technically I am paid by the Jews Yeah I am paid by The truth comes out ladies The other remains business manager is Jews But he doesn't technically pay me
Starting point is 02:00:04 I pay him It's just one Jew so it's not One Jew yeah A family of Jews, maybe? A family of Jews is your... Well, I mean, yeah, his dad's Jewish, too. And his dad was the actual guy that we started with 20-some years ago. Oh, wow.

Starting point is 02:00:35 Bryant law says, hey, Phil, we should also punish trucking companies who are corrupt and push illegals through violating the FMCSA federal standards laws already on the books charge the DMV for fraud as well i mean look man dm v is a good call i mean like i said like all the things all the things to make it hard for them to stay i'm i'm down with so i don't even know what you're talking about but if it'll make it harder for them down with it you know it is only reason I want it done the right way is because the left would love to show that picture. You know, they already
Starting point is 02:01:12 did it with, you know, kids crying and, oh, you look at Trump, a separate family. I don't want them to have that picture of now ICE agents standing outside of businesses leading people out. And they're like, look at that. They went into that business and went through everyone. And so I just, I wouldn't have done the right way. And then if it's done the right
Starting point is 02:01:27 way, it's more permanent. 100%. 100%. And I feel like we all want that because we don't want them to use that against you know, us. All right Trucker 2019 says Phil I'm a truck driver Commercial driving is federal
Starting point is 02:01:42 Not state level That Indian who caused the accident Is facing federal charges Not state level good I'm happy to hear that And I want the owner of the trucking company To face accessory to murder charges Or you know whatever
Starting point is 02:01:55 I don't know what And Bondi are you listening to IRL right now You should be Put them in jail Take away his company take all his trucks and sell his trucks to his competitors he's going to get I like it yeah I like that's got to be brutal
Starting point is 02:02:11 brutal there is no reason for it competitors yeah they're probably hiring illegals too yeah let's read this one here oh let's see Jonathan Foreman says I work as a diesel tech for trucks and trailers I bet the company was out of somewhere near Chicago those companies hire Eastern Europeans and Indians all the time huh
Starting point is 02:02:30 well round them up ship them out beat it take their property take their business get out of here so it's like
Starting point is 02:02:40 AI trucks are going to be a thing now because they're going to do for all the illegals yeah I mean I said something about that when I saw this I was like I can't wait
Starting point is 02:02:48 till you know AI trucks are driving and this kind of stuff doesn't happen or happens less because look I know that people are there are people that are critical
Starting point is 02:02:57 of AI and critical of self-driving trucks and there are people that got so mad at me They're like, some dude was like, oh, I can't wait till AI takes over making ATR's music, blah, blah, blah, it's like, bro. What do you think happened to my industry when streaming came out 15 effing years ago? As soon as, like, you could get the Winamp player and people could pirate music.
Starting point is 02:03:21 What's a line wire came out and shit? 25 years ago. So don't come at me like, oh, it's, don't take my business. Screw you. That shit happened to me fucking 25 years ago. But I do feel what that gentleman was saying because, you know, Chuck Travers are, you know, the backbone of the economy if they're legal.
Starting point is 02:03:40 It won't be for long. Damn it. Sorry, guys. A lot of lizards are going to be out there protesting. You're going to get killing our business. Right. All right. Venus Palace 7th is big difference between California and L.A.
Starting point is 02:03:55 You're able to say NYC and not New York, but you all forgot that California is a big state with more conservatives than any other state. Don't lump us in with L.A. I feel you and you have my apologies. You know, look, part of the reason why people kind of assume that it's all Democrats in California is because of the fact that they've had a Democrat government, you know, their House and Senate or whatever their state versions of that are.
Starting point is 02:04:22 And they've had Democrats in office forever. And they always vote for Democrats and the national elections and all of those things are probably. why people make those assumptions so but you do have my apologies i'm i'm aware that there are a lot of republicans out there that hate the fact that they're lumped in listen i get it as a new yorker i i completely understand and i live in a very red county in a very red town so i get it however it's still your state so you got to eat it yeah i hear when they talk about new york and they're like oh you need to cut off new york from the rest of the country it doesn't listen I get it, but you got to eat it.
Starting point is 02:05:05 Yep, yeah. Last one, Igbail says, don't forget that Newsom is Pelosi's nephew. That is who he learned everything from. Look, Pelosi's an extremely talented political animal as well. She wouldn't have stayed in office for as long as she did, and she wouldn't have, she was the speaker. Like, she is extremely talented.
Starting point is 02:05:24 So if she was teaching him, he learned from one of the best.
