The airports are absolutely insane right now. There's some airports with a three hour wait time because the TSA agents have not yet been paid. There are videos showing a line going all the way into the parking garage and wrapping around going up several levels. It is absolutely insane. For this, Donald Trump has dispatched ICE agents into these airports and there are videos of illegal immigrants being arrested in airports. Now, ICE says that was actually before the formal deployment, but they were still in the airport. And Trump is saying he will not consider any funding or anything until the Save Act is passed. Massive and crazy news at these airports.

We also have this major airplane crash at LaGuardia shutting it down, which brings up questions of the crisis of merit in this country. And this ties into the mass migration story with ice at these airports, H-1B and all that. And then the really crazy story, Donald Trump said this morning that he had great. talks with the country of Iran. So he was postponing strikes on their energy infrastructure. Iran then denied it saying, we never talked to him about anything. And then Iran launched a bunch of missiles targeting Israel and seems like there's no peace talks. Many people are saying Trump is this lying. They believe Iran over Trump. I'm wondering if Iran is just doing this to make Trump look bad or if Trump is trying to protect the markets by, let's just call it, I'm being very nice here.

massaging the truth. Who is he really talking to? Some are suggesting it's because Trump is trying to negotiate with a rival faction who would take over and the IRGC is not the people he's been in communication with. So you don't know for sure, but we're going to know all that. And then of course, one of my favorite stories, Bill Maher says he's with Trump. Indeed. The man of ultimate Trump derangement syndrome said if it comes down to Tucker or, you know, Megan Kelly, he's with Donald Trump on this as it pertains to the war with Iran. which is creating a very interesting political bifurcation, to say the least. There are many, many other stories.

It's going to be a great show. Thanks for hanging out. It should be fun. Libby, of course, is here. I'm Libby. I'm glad to be here. I'm the host of the Pod Millennial, which you can check out our latest episode. Just, it drops tomorrow, but it's out on YouTube. So after Timcast, you should scoot on over and listen to that. It's with Mary Morgan of

Pop Culture Crisis at thepodmillennial.com. Right on. Carter is producing and Tate of course is hanging out. What's going on, Patriot? We're going to jump into this news. We've got it from CNN. My friends, ICE officers deploy to some airports as TSA callouts worsen. They say immigration and customs enforcement agents have been deployed to 14 airports today to help during the Department of Homeland Security shutdown. The Transportation Security Administration has faced growing callouts from officers who have gone without pay since DHS funding laps in February. Well, my friends, we've got this video that's going viral of an illegal immigrant being arrested at an airport, an alleged illegal immigrant. I don't know if this woman is, but check this video out. It's pretty obvious what they're doing.

They're arresting someone. I hope you're so fucking proud of yourselves, you fucking assholes. You're on video now, too. Yeah. Shame on you. You fucking un-American piece of shit. Fuck you. I'm just imagining, like, all of these instances,

were ICE is arresting people. Like, I don't know what this lady's done or whatever. But you've got criminals and, like, pedophiles, and they're screaming, like, are you proud of what you're doing? And they're like, yes, this person raped children. Like, what? So here's what this tweet says, says, additional raw footage from a new angle. This woman is a U.S. citizen traveling with her younger daughter, according to witnesses

who filmed the video. And they would know, right? And then, of course, DHS says this arrest of illegal aliens occurred yesterday in March 22nd before ICE officers were deployed to airports to bolster TSA efforts. ICE officers arrested Angelina Lopez Jimenez and Wendy Godinez Lopez at the San Francisco International Airport. These illegal aliens had a final removal order of removal. Is that what it's called?

From an immigration, it's a removal order of removal. Yes, the final order of removal. Oh, I know, but it says final removal order of removal. I was a redundancy. Well, redundant there. Yeah. Since 2019, they say, while being escorted to the international terminal for processing, Lopez Jimenez attempted to.

flee and resisted law enforcement officers. ICE is working as quickly as possible to repatriate the family unit to their home country of Guatemala. How nice. I mean, that's just such so nice. The American legal, you come into our country illegally, you break our laws and we say, hey, we're going to give you a ride home and reunite you with your family. Well, and if you go by yourself, if you go on your own, you get a free flight and $2,600.

That's crazy. I know. I wish you could, like, self-deport to, like, another state. just to pour it home. Also, like, if you're at an airport and you see someone getting arrested, usually your first impulse is like, wow, that was a close one, like, thank heavens. But since it's ice agent, suddenly it's like the worst thing ever, if someone's getting arrested at the airport.

And now we know why they wear masks. Yeah, for real. Yeah, but this country has serious problems when you have a large portion of its people who are on the side of criminals. I mean, it's... But is it a large portion? I think it's a small portion.

And I think we spent four years allowing this theory that when people come in, CNN, Abby Phillips said it. She literally said when people come in, it's not a criminal act. Yes, it is. It is criminal to come in. You're an illegal. You should be deported immediately. But I think Biden and Democrats allow people to come in live off of our food, our system, our welfare, everything, steal from us, rob from us, kill us. And now when we're trying to deport them, people are a fringe, a small minority, are up in arms.

what most Americans want, and this is why Trump is in office, we want deportations. So I just think it's a small minority online and in mainstream media that's lying because more often when I see somebody getting arrested, I'm like, my God, what did they do? And thank God for the police.

Yeah, I'm really trying to get the T, so to speak. I'm like, what do you do? Exactly. Where's she from? I mean, you have at least enough people for this to happen spontaneously. This was not a coordinated protest. It's San Francisco.

Yeah. They're like, have you seen? seen that the show the pit clip that's going viral? Should we pull that one up? I have seen it go by, but I didn't watch it. Like, what are these shows like the, what was it like the good wife or something? With Julianna Margulies? Is that the one where it's like super woke court drama?

Yes. Let me pull this clip up and we'll throw it in the mix. Wait, wait, wait, this one's too short. This is a longer one. Wu-Tang for kids. Here we go. We need a broader. Rick's got the clip. Let's play it for you guys. This is fictional television, apparently.

Hold on. She needs to sleep. Let's only take a minute. We're leaving. Hey, man, you're hurting her. Jesus Christ, what's going on now? Get your hands on. He hurt her and Jesse stepped in. Are they an induce? I know, I know. I know. This is to me, no. Don't say anything. You don't have to say anything. They can't make you say anything. We'll get you an attorney. I promise we'll get you out. Call the hospital attorney again. I can't believe this shit. You at least tell us where you're taking them.

Is there a detention center near Pittsburgh? That's got to be where they're going, right? It could be hours before he's processed. I'll stay on it. Hold on. This is what warps the brains of liberals. The ICE agents are mass. They don't say anything.

They're all evil. They're hurting the poor, innocent woman with a broken arm, and then they arrest the guy for no reason. That's the world they live in. So they watch TV shows. They base their reality in the TV show. and they go out and scream at cops arresting criminals. Well, because people go to graduate school to write TV shows,

and then they go to L.A. right away. They haven't lived any lives. They watch other TV shows. Then they regurgitate those TV shows onto still more TV shows that apparently people then watch. Who even watches this? I mean, could you imagine sitting down and watching an hour of this nonsense? It's all, like, Lip-Tard fan fix.

They used to do the thing where it'd be like, you know, this racist chud would, like, drop the N-word in a coffee shop. Like, that's, like, a thing that happens. It's literally all, it's literally all like LipTard fanfix. Like, it's literally, you know, it's Wattpad, but for graduate students. Like, it's really the most egregious stuff. And people sign checks for it. That's the most crazy thing.

Maybe the issue is that we need to start making our own tongue-in-cheek version of these things. Yeah. Yeah. I've been saying for a while, we need to hire a film producer here so we can do these bits. I'd love to make a scene where, like, the illegal immigrant is asking for her arm to be fixed, but then just like pulls out a gun and starts shooting people randomly. I'm like, oh no, no, help, where's ice? She's killing people for no reason.

This is exactly what you're talking about is exactly what is needed. I'm serious. Like there should be sketches. They would believe it. They should be like, the liberals would think it's a serious show. They'd be like, this is what conservatives actually believe. And a lot of this. But you, you know, so you have like fun opening credits and then.

You know, what you do is you have like an illegal immigrant coming with a broken arm. And then when they're like tending to him, he just gets up bolts full speed towards a little picks the kid up, it just runs out the door, is gone. And they're like, oh, no. It's probably happened, right? It's probably happened. Also, like, a lot of this stuff,

me and Tim, I've talked about this at length in, like, very explicit detail. A lot of this kind of stuff is, like, goon bait for women. Like, with the ice agents and like the... Gond bait? Yeah, they're like, yeah, yeah, it's a thing. That's a thing. And they come in, they're like, really tough guys.

And they're like, sit down, woman, know your place. I'm an ice agent. And they're like, oh, my gosh. Wow. Well, I've talked about it quite a bit. There was that viral Reddit post where it was like on two X chromosomes, which is, it's funny, like the new Reddit CEO, Alan Powell at the time forced it onto the default page. So it's like feminism page. But there was a post where it was this woman being like, I feel guilty that I get all hot and bothered for big mega men.

And she talked about how like she fantasizes about like a six foot three guy chiseled with a mega hat on just like taking her. Right. And just like having his way with her. And she's like, she loves it. but she feels guilty about it. It's like, why are you telling people this? Yeah, I don't know if there's like a right-wing analog, like, oh, I really wish Rachel Maddow was screaming at me, right?

Like, it's not really- No, no, Rachel, don't debate me, no. Scoled me, Rachel, scold me. I don't know. I mean, there's, of course, the powerful men that go to the dominatrixes to be abused. Are they right-wing? And I guarantee you. A lot of them are right-wing, for sure.

I guarantee you this. There is some rich guy out there. who makes his dominatrix dress up like Rachel Maddow to beat him. I'm sure there is. Let's not. Okay, guys. She doesn't even wear a shirt under that blazer. She just wears the blazer with no blouse.

Yeah. I hate that look for me. With the glasses. Just put on a wig. Put on a shirt. Remember that Sally Cone lady? She did the same look. Whatever happened to her?

I don't know who that is. Sally Co. K-O-H-N? She used to be all over. Was she blonde? She had the same boy haircut, blazer. It was like the same thing. Got nothing. Got nothing.

You know, I got a wallet. Oh, I'm thinking of Sally Jesse Raphael. Yeah. No, I saw on the timeline and it was great. I remember her. Back in the day, the 90s, like I was just talking, we talked about this last week, but I was talking to my wife about it again, that 1994 is the greatest year in the history of humanity. Really?

It is. Just like name every album that came out in 1994. And it was because I can't remember what we were citing. I was like, well, Star Trek the last season, but something happened where it was like, oh, that was 1994. and then I said that was the greatest year of mankind. And then we started naming all of the albums that came out. It's like every 90s song ever.

And then for no reason, I brought up that Netflix is older than Google, which most people don't know, but it's true. Yeah, it is true. I had Netflix from the very beginning, and I loved it. I would like, you know. I did too, and then I canceled it.

I have my discs. Back when it was DVD. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I'd go and get it from like a giant eagle or somewhere, and you have a drop box. 1999. Yeah, but it was in the 90s?

They send you a roll of that? Because they had Red Box. Oh, it's Red Box. Red Box. It's Red Box. Yeah, those are gone. Remember Red Box? Yes, it was Red Box than mail in.

And like, they'd just send you more. No, but you had to mail it in. I love Red Box. Remember Red Box? Yeah. Go to 7-Eleven. There's a big Red Box and you just swipe your card and it gives you the movie. Do you remember Blockbuster?

Of course. That was the best. That's what I'm saying. Everything went downhill, man. Everything went downhill after Blockbuster left. They did Hollywood Video 2. Yeah. Where I came from.

And they had the video game. section and everything was perfect. You had book it with Pizza Hut. I think we need nuclear war. I am hoping that Iran launches missiles in every direction. We retaliate with nukes, China then fires nukes. All of our grid communications are wiped out and we are forced to revert back to 1994. But we wouldn't go back because the only way out is through. So we'd end up with even stupid or stuff than we have now. I'm just saying like technology is obliterated only to the point where we have to live like it's 1994. Like, we know cell phones exist, but the infrastructure is gone and the internet's largely gone. So we have this weak dial-up internet from the old lines. You know,

it would be amazing would be getting back some of the old, the old news cycles where it's like one story for like a whole week. We'd have nothing to talk about. Those were the days, right? That sounds like the Biden administration, though. You just keep digging. You just keep doing news, like the switch from the Biden administration, the Trump administration to the Biden administration. It's nonstop. It was shocking. And then like suddenly Biden were like, wait, the news is over at 6 p.m. We're done. You didn't have anything to talk about.

And the same analysis actually kept me for like a week to a week and a half because nothing changed. And then President Trump comes in and I don't think I'm getting sleep. He doesn't sleep. But I am literally researching the things he's doing just to keep up with his administration. As soon as he came into office, like it was the first week and I had a staff meeting and I was like, okay, guys, we're working overtime. Stories are going to be shorter. because we need more of them.

Politics just seems so... I mean, Howard Dean just screamed weird and he had to, like, retire. That was so funny. Like, what was going on? He had a wild yop. Did you guys see the variety article that was insulting Chuck Norris?

No. It was titled Chuck Norris, action movie star, but his politics may muddy his legacy or whatever, and it went viral because people were like, look how they treat Rob Reiner, look how they treat Chuck Norris because he was a conservative.

The article was mostly just a fluff piece At the very end, it briefly mentions his movies were largely pro-American propaganda, and that's all it really says. But the reason they titled this way is because we're in an age of 50,000 news websites, all competing for you to click on them, and you have no reason to click on them. When Chuck Norris died, rest in peace, legend, everyone instantly knew. You just needed X. You didn't need anything else. Right. So how do you function as a news outlet then? You have to write something people will click on.

Dude, it's not easy. It's actually a very 90s. No, I believe it. We have an attention span of like goldfish. Like, it's 10 seconds, and then you're moving on to the next thing, unless you're really interested in the news and politics. The New York Post has cracked the code. There's like, I had told him, I think he was gay.

They just, they just put like, Chuck your grenade. I was like, what? That's okay. But they didn't make that up. That's actually. Well, it's just great. But they didn't make it up. I'm not going to give New York Post credit for saying he's gay.

Everybody was saying. Was he gay? At the same time. They were saying he was gay in 1992. Because the New York Post just, like, they throw stuff out, and they're like, And you're like, all right, I respect. Well, it's funny. I remember there was like a big shift where Daily Mail went.

It used to be that it was all like heavy news and cultural issues and now it's a whole lot of women's content. Yeah. I think guys are, their brains are fried. And, you know, I think women's content just generates more money because women are, they're satisfied by different kinds of news. And I think women largely like to not be informed. I'm not saying they don't read the news. I'm saying women like news stories that leave on a cliffhanger that don't tell you what's going to happen. And guys just are like, tell me what happened and shut up. So you'll notice that as journalism has become increasingly more female, you're getting a lot of news articles that instead of saying something like today, Donald Trump met at the Oval Office with UFC, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. It'll start with, it was a crisp Sunday morning. The clouds were breaking. A dog barks. I take a look and through my window, I see him. The man, everyone questions. Donald Trump. And I'm going, what is this? It's the NPRification of all news media. Yes. It's the feminization of news media. Well, that's the NPRification as well.

Because it's- I think that's not true. Who actually wants that? Because it's horrible to read it. This is why they want 50 shades of gray. Guys want to just be told right away. I don't think all women want that. I think some women do. I think some women do. I think most women that that's why they watch canvas owens. And they watch true crime podcasts. True. But I think that's why all the Erica Kirk content is dominated by female viewership. Fact, check it out. Well, that's just sick. You know what, women on women are the worst criminals

in terms of supporting each other and things like that? So what they're doing to Erica Kirk is just trashed. And most women are looking at it, wondering, half of us are wondering what the heck's going on and the other half are just vile and malicious, in my opinion. If you look at like 50 Shades of Gray, they say it's that women like to read and imagine, whereas men like to be told straight up.

So with news, the guy wants the video that says here's what happened, here's what I think, and the women want the content that's like drawn out slow and leaves you with limited information. So it ends with, we don't really know what even happened. I hate that, frankly.

I hate that. Well, that's why you're here on this show. That's what I am on this show. But I will say that things I prefer to news include like fashion content. I like looking at dresses. There's this kid who's 10, who's making dresses and they're cool. And I'm like, wow, how come this 10-year-old kid is the best dressmaker

in the world right now? Everything else is garbage. It's a very salient question. I like dogs. There was a dog lost. That's totally pointless. Let's jump to this next story. This is a big one. Deadly plane collision at LaGuardia Airport. What we know. First question, take a look at this image. It's absolutely

insane. The audio went massively viral as the air chief controller is saying, like, truck, move, turn, turn, turn, and then bang. And so, So immediately, this plays into a question, which it may not need to, but people have been for some time warning about air traffic controllers, one, because there's a shortage, but also because of H-1B and DEI initiatives. And so this jumps way back to even Charlie Kirk making that point about, he said, if he got

into a plane and saw a black pilot, he's questioning if that pilot is qualified. The left attacked him saying he was racist for doing so, but the point he was making is the left is putting people based on ideology in positions of authority. without the skill required to do it. So how does something like this happen shutting down the whole airport? Libby, what happened? Yeah, so we were tracking this today at the post-millennial, and it looks like what happened is the air traffic controller gave access to a runway to both a truck

and a plane at the same time, only realizing too late that that's what he was doing, and he kept telling the truck to stop. And it wouldn't. And it didn't stop. I don't know why it didn't stop. He's like, stop, stop, stop. Yeah, he's like, stop, stop. And then passengers that were on board the Air Canada flight were saying that the pilots were

trying to pull the brakes and it didn't work. But that's probably why the, you know, it's so high up. Like, apparently they were trying to pull the brakes. And that didn't work. A flight attendant was where in a jump seat was ejected from the plane entirely. Yeah. She was, I've got it. Let's play the audio.

You should listen to the audio. Yeah, listen to the audio. It's about a minute long. Truck one company was already tower. request me to cross four at Delta. Truck one company cross for at Delta. Truck one and company crossing four at

Delta. Frontier 41.95 to stop there, please. 9-2000 go around 0-2603. Wow. Power vehicle 98, 422 is closed. I repeat, runway 422 is closed at this time. Wow. LaGuardia Airport is closed at this time.

It's closed until noon, apparently. But at a certain point in that in that audio, You can hear the air traffic controller say that he messed up. So you can hear him say. And like a longer audio. Yeah, in the longer audio. Yes.

To be fair, he did say truck one stop, stop, stop, and they would not respond. He said it. He said we were dealing with an emergency earlier and I messed up. And another pilot responded, no, you did the best that you could. So it's a tough situation. But God, I don't know how you go back to work after that. I would feel like how do you do that too? My immediate assumption is that like the truck,

is it was a fire truck, they don't just go off communications. I'm wondering if something happened like he's adjusting something, he's driving forward, things he's clear, adjusting an earpiece or the radio or something happens because I don't understand how he lost communication. Also, how do you not see the airport?

How do you not see that plane? Right. That's why I'm like, I don't know if it's the answer of control's fault. I used to work at O'Hare. We had a radio at all times, and I used to cross runways for refueling and things like that. You're on the radio. There's no not being on the radio.

I mean, unless the radio died right at that moment, something doesn't make sense. And I would assume your head's also on a swivel the entire time as well. Yeah. Well, my father-in-law drives planes, and literally he's talking to air traffic control every 10 seconds, and he's still looking right and left, even after clearance. It's terrifying. You are trained to do all of us. You are constantly asking.

You're repeating. You're confirming what they're saying. So for this to happen is just shocking. The Guardian is on a tiny airport. Take a look at this picture right here. I want you guys take a look at a couple of things. It has been 20 years since I worked at airports. I'm not going to be able to go over all these things.

But you can see here, like in the back, you got the E and then CC with an arrow. These are airport traffic signs everywhere. And it's an entirely different traffic system. You have to learn to work on the tarmac at the airport. So when I got hired, they made a study, learn, and take a test to prove we knew how to handle these things. and there is a protocol for all of this. I used to do de-icing, which is, if you guys ever been in the plane, the truck comes in. It's the best.

And you did that in Chicago. In Chicago. And it's the best job because it doesn't snow that often, that heavy. So when you are a de-iscer, you're mostly just playing Xbox all day. Like that's what we were doing. But then when it does snow, you're out fully decked out in gear and a cherry picker just with this gigantic hose blasting planes. You have to drive that truck to refuel because you're going nonstop back and forth because you've got to, I don't understand how this happened.

Because I have driven these trucks. I have been in the passenger seat with people driving these trucks. This blows my mind. This absolutely blows my mind. I don't know how the, like the guy driving the fire truck turned his radio for the battery died. That's the only thing I can imagine. Adjusting his earpiece or something. We didn't have ear pieces.

So I'm just trying to make up scenarios. We had just a regular radio on our chest. And you'd press the button and say, all right, we're pulling in. refueling, things like that, and you'd hear them on the radio. I do not understand how this is possible, really. Yeah, I mean, there have been other issues at LaGuardia in the past few years. Two planes collided on LaGuardia tarmac in the fall in November. Delta jets collided on the LaGuardia runway in October.

So, I mean, that's, you know, that's recent problems at LaGuardia. And it does look like the complex, like I keep thinking. about with airports, it's the collapse of complex systems. Like, how soon before we just shouldn't be flying? I keep wondering, like, should I not be in the air right now? It's not like ATC has like a uniquely, like a unique staffing issue. It's like across the board, everyone in America, everything is getting worse. But it's just the margin for error is unbelievably low.

It is down to one factor that is causing all of society's problems. And you know it is? What? The dysfunction of sexual relationships. So true. There was this post I saw. And I'm not joking, but let me elaborate. That was talking about how societies begin to collapse when you look at them historically.

There's like, this is academic research. You can look into it. Maybe it's right, but it's, you know, an assessment by academics. That when sex becomes cheap and available or disrupted, then what happens is you either get listless young men who go insane or you get guys who don't strive towards merit. And so you take a look at societies where they had strict cultural enforcement on relationships, whatever that might have been, a degree of difficulty, that resulted in stability. And then when you get societies after a couple generations that go debaucherous and just free and open

sex, guys don't care anymore. Yeah, like the UK, the whole young man thing in the UK is like a lot of people on government welfare, you know, sort of a mess. There's no relationship. There's no reason because either it's inaccessible to like the weaker in-cell males who have no social abilities. And then the, uh, the, the like higher tier, like alpha-chat guys who are just naturally attractive don't have to do anything. Right. Because women give it up for free. And then in Rome, this happened as well. Like the relationship started to decline. There was an

excessive amount of promiscuity in Rome and so now you have people who take jobs, but they half-ass everything. They do the bare minimum because they don't need to do anything to get, to get women. Well, we allowed it. Well, we've allowed that too. But we've allowed it in at least airports in terms of, how we're filtering and the security and who we were hiring the last four years. President Trump came in and changed that. And your note about men, I mean, I just blamed that on apps. I mean, the second you have availability and women, then it makes everything just go downhill. And then, you know, to be fair, everything's reductive.

You can go back and consistently find the trends that resulted in this very moment. But I'm somewhat, it's somewhat facetiously that I'd bring that up. What we're dealing with in this country is a degradation. of skill and merit. And this is going to compound in an explosive way that I do not believe Donald Trump can fix. I believe that we are looking at a time bomb due to the population collapse that cannot be salvaged. And so it's turning into a loss of merit. The story people point to is that the Apollo landings, the average age was 24 in the command center. And today, NASA, it's like the average age is like 45. We don't have talented young people coming in and taking over this

critical infrastructure and we don't have young people either. So I would only say perhaps it's a bit pessimistic, but it seems like the end is nigh. It does. I think there are definitely concerns with the population situation. I think that a lot of people are saying we're past the point of no return with that. Yeah. Well, I mean, it's just total. It's just going to be collapse. And then you start to wonder, you know, what happens to your children, what happens to the future of the civilization. It takes six. Is it going to decline and then there'll be some new civilization on earth? Yeah, it would take it. At least 60 years to recover the population to what it is now, as in the population is declining because the birth rate went negative in 1980. Right. It would take 60 years.

You know what I find. It's not possible. It's not possible. I want to pull up this video clip from Bill Maher's show. This is Bill Maher addressing Joe Kent, Tucker Carlson, this break on the right. And in the most shocking of statements, probably the most shocking thing I've ever heard in my life, Bill Maher says I'm with Trump. And I almost had a seizure when I heard him say that. I was trying to wake myself, how is it possible that Bill Ma was such a thing? But what I'm going to do for you guys is actually connect the dots from what Bill Maher is saying about Tucker into what Tucker is saying about the world into how population decline means the end of this country. Trust me,

it is all connected. But let's start here with the prominent political commentator explaining how he feels about Tucker, Joe Kent, and Trump. You have now this guy, Joe Kent. He quit this week. It was a big story. I think he was the counterintelligence guy. And he said, I can't go along with this because, you know what? He's been listening to too much Tucker Carlson. And it's, you know, the Jews made us do it. It's just another version of anti-Semitism that comes out. First it was BDS, then it was their colonizers and genocide, which it wasn't, and all these other reasons.

Like, you can't have a state in the world that's based on religion, even though there's like 46 Muslim countries that are based on religion. Some have the name right in the title of the country. But whatever it is, you have all these. And now the big answer is, no, Israel made us do it. We're Israel's bitch. I don't think we're Israel's bitch. I think we're Israel's ally.

But, you know, if I have to be on one side of this MAGA thing, either Trump or Tucker Carlson, Candice Owens, and Nick Fuentes, I'll be with Trump on this one. They're clapping for him. That's the other side of MAG. The Bill Maher audience is clapping for him saying, I'm going to be with Trump. That's crazy.

The real alignment is crazy. But while I certainly disagree with a portion of what Bill Maher is saying when he was like Joe Kent's criticism, them as the Jews did it. It's a little heavy-handed in the other direction. You're allowed to criticize Israel as a country. You're allowed to criticize their pressure on the United States, A-PAC and their campaign. That's politics. That's allowed. And Bill Maher, I believe, is misconstruing what Joe Kent sent because he didn't blame the Jews. That being said, Tucker Carlson said something interesting that is also going viral. And I'll play for you this clip. We can no longer be the sole author

of terms, of commerce, of anything. We have to share power. With China. Of course. because of their scale. This video has gone massively viral. 2.3 million views on just this one clip alone. And there's an additional interview with Tucker and a Chinese professor, or they say he's a Chinese professor, where, well, he's literally Chinese. I don't know if he's Chinese nationally, but he's ethnically saying that it's time for the U.S. to come together with other partner countries to negotiate the distribution of power.

And so in combining these two things, you have these two worldviews. Bill Maher represents the boomers. They're very pro-Israel. They're very pro-America, very pro-American hegemonic power, military-industrial complex, inadvertently. And Donald Trump is in there along with Bill. So when you get Tucker, Candice, or Fuentes, or anybody else, on the other side of that, saying, we can't do this, we can't be the world police, we have to share power. Bill Maher is going to align with Donald Trump. Now, what I will say is, I believe, though I disagree with Tucker on many things, what he's describing, whether you want to be.

want it to or not is inevitable. The theory is, and I agree with this, we've discussed this theory on this show years ago, Thucydides' trap is a reference to when a dominant power is on the decline and an rival power is ascendant, right before that switch happens, the dominant power will go to war with the weaker power as it is their last opportunity to stop their growth. 12 out of 16 historical times in the past, we have seen this trend happen. The theory is the powers that be in the United States recognizing that the city's trap is an inevitability as the United States cannot maintain itself. After a few generations, you get merit decline, you get social degradation, you have to have a jumping of the ship to a new culture.

The theory is that in the 90s, take a look at what H.W. Bush said with the new world order. the theory is they go to China, cut these trade deals, start sending all of our manufacturing over there so that the decline and the ascension are so fast, war is impossible. The powerful elites transfer as much of their wealth to China as possible. The U.S. falters no longer a global dominant power. China is ascendant becomes the unipolar power. The Belt and Road Initiative, all of their projects become dominant, and the U.S. becomes second rate. the U.S. standard of living drops dramatically.

I believe, unfortunately, there is a very, very high probability that is true no matter what you do because Americans did not have children. And we just talked about this plane crash in LaGuardia. There is a massive decline in capability and skill. I will say this. I have spoken with many business leaders and business owners, and I have witnessed it. Managers are saying there is a massive shortage of talent and management. managerial talent. So we've seen businesses go under near us because they have a lack of functional

employees. They can't find people who can do these jobs. Flooding the country with Honduran migrants will not solve for this problem. And that seems to be what Democrats were trying to do, whether to save the economy or to just massively destroy us, to destroy us much more quickly, the end result is the migrant from Honduras or Guatemala or from Eritrea or wherever country, they're coming from will not be an air traffic controller. There is nothing you can do to make that happen. And this is, this guy, whether it's his fault or not, told the truck to go on and then the truck crashes in an airplane.

What happens in 10 years when we do not have entry level talent or managerial talent? I don't see how it's possible that we push forward. And I want to stress too because people have said AI will replace these jobs. And I have pushed back on this saying, AI will not. not buy tacos from your taco stand. You can replace your employees with robots to make the tacos, but you need human beings to buy the tacos to exist. And those human beings need money. Indeed, but here's work. It's even crazier. Already companies have been quietly rehiring engineers because the AI could not actually do the job. And behind the scenes, there are some

tech companies that have said, if we find any element of vibe coding in your work, you are fired immediately because the vibe coding from these AIs is miserably bad and they can't figure out to fix it because no one's created a code map of what they actually did. So at least for now, I do believe AI will get to the point where it will be much more functional for the time being. We are cooked. Look, at the turn of the century in the 1900s, there were fears that New York would be overrun by horse manure. They were riding. There's too many people. Population growth is too much. And with all of the horses everywhere, there's going to be piles upon piles. of manure everywhere. And then 20 years later, there was not a single drop of horse poop.

Right, because they invented the car. Exactly. So perhaps there will be some kind of technological revelation, which will help solve this crisis. But the end result is this. Whether you have technology to solve your problem won't matter if there's no people to use the technology. Yeah, that's true. The last point I'll make is there's a video game about, I forgot what it's called, but you play the game where you're the cat. Have you guys seen this one? It was very popular. I've seen that. Maybe. You play a cat and you're going around solving stuff. And the story is humanity has been wiped out. They've gone extinct. And the robot AIs that they created to facilitate their existence are still operating, but there's no humans to serve. So they're basically just creating a society for themselves

in service of nothing. And that may be where we go. Well, I'm skeptical that we're heading towards a multipolar world. This was the consensus like five years ago. But I mean, China's birth rate is significantly worse than the U.S. Stray was the game. Stray. I was like looking it up. Chat knows all. I mean, China's birth rate is significantly worse than the U.S. they're facing the same labor shortages.

And also, I mean, like the Americans, I think in the last six months, specifically have been surprised by how capable our military is. I think obviously everyone knew our military was strong, but the Venezuela operation really blew people's minds and Iran. I mean, it's difficult to tell right now, but it seems like we're accomplishing a lot of our military goals there. Aside whether or not you support the war, just from a military perspective,

It's like we are still clearly punching at least at our weight, if not above our weight. And also like, again, we're just seeing- It'd be hard to punch above our weight. I mean, we're the biggest- I know. I'm just saying even like our expectations were. And then in addition to that, I mean, we don't, like China, Russia and now Iran have. Like a lot of our global adversaries really turn out to be kind of underwhelming.

I just, I don't know. Our global allies, though. Well, yeah, too, but I say five years ago, I think it was like, okay, we're heading to a multipolar world. But a lot of people are abandoning that theory. I mean, I mean, like, Nick Fuenza's infamously like kind of backed away from And he's like, I think the unipolar moment is actually here to stay. Why can't people pronounce Iran properly or Iraq?

It's Iran. It's Iran. I just say Iran because I'm an American. Every time people say Iran, I think of the flag. And people on the show have the gall to say nuclear. Nuclear. Uh-huh. My favorite, though, is when Americans who sound just like me, then say Gaza.

I drive like Gaza. Gaza. Yeah, instead of Gaza. Instead of Gaza? They'll be like, yeah, the people are suffering in Gaza. You never heard them. They try to do an accent or something? They try and do an accent, but just for that.

It's people like, selectively pronounce. But NPR does that for Spanish words, yeah. And they selectively pronounce it in the native language, where they'll say. That's a padlin. Yeah, it's obnoxious. They'll say Kyiv. They'll say Kiev. With the vocal fry, with the vocal fry.

But it'd be fair, but like. No, the Kiev, the Kiv is a Biden thing. Yeah. Biden was like, and that was right after they said it's no longer the Ukraine. I don't know if you guys remember. It used to be the Ukraine. They're trying to build. They're trying to create a national identity.

for a country that doesn't have one and people don't care about. Exactly. People who live there don't care about it. No, they keep slicing it up. I was once talking to Jack Pesobics' wife, Tanya, and she was saying that generations of her family were all born in the same town, but all in different countries. Same town.

Different countries every time, you know, like over, it was just overtaken and overtaken and overtaken. No, but, yeah, I mean, like, I'll just get on to this point. I mean, the selective pronunciation of foreign words is like one of my biggest pet piece because it's like, we don't say Deutschland, we say Germany, but then all of a sudden you're supposed to keep. And then Turkey. At the Olympics, Turkey is trying to get everyone to pronounce it like Turkoi with like the weird dots about the you. I'm like, what are we doing?

But I have no problem with Iran because we literally look at the word and it's Iran and people say Iran. It says I ran. Iran so far away. It is real. It's always flock of seagulls in my mind when that happens. Let's jump to this next story. Major news, ladies gentlemen, Iran fires missiles at Israel. after warning Trump, they have special plans for you tonight.

Israel. After U.S., we were joking about pronunciations a moment ago, for those that haven't been watching. President threatened attack on power plants before touting deal with Ayatollah live updates. This is huge news. Earlier today, Donald Trump said after productive talk to the country of Iran, he would be postponing these strikes on their energy facilities. He gave it five days. Is what? Five days.

Iran then comes out and goes, we didn't talk to this guy and we have no negotiations. And I guess Trump did not address this. A lot of speculation was that on the pro-Trump side, they're saying Trump's negotiating with rival forces to the IRGC. The productive talks were that we're trying to get someone else to take over. I think that's wishful thinking. I think the truth is Donald Trump likely concerned about market movements and oil prices wants to put out a message of confidence that we are going to be winding these things down. He keeps saying we're contemplating winding down, despite the fact all indications are, we are deploying troops into the region.

Now, Iran then fires missiles at Israel seemingly to prove they have no interest in de-escalation or peace talks. So this flies in the face of what Trump is saying. I can certainly envision a scenario where Trump did communicate with them. They did agree to open the Strait of Hormuz and calm things down and then came out and lied about it to make Trump look weak and stupid. That being said, the next big component of the story is that reportedly Iran fought. wired ICBMs at Diego Garcia, U.S. Air Base, I believe it's what, like 2,000 kilometers away or something.

I have no idea. Outside the range of what is believed to be Iran's missile capability, indicating that Iran has the ability to hit Central Europe with ICBMs. And if they get nuclear weapons, you are now dealing with an enemy, with an adversary that is nuclear-armed, erratic, and ideologically fundamentalist. Now, a lot of people are saying, they don't believe it. Iran, claimed that they never fired these missiles. It was actually Israel doing a false flag attack. And it's really going to come down to whether or not you believe the U.S. or Iran. Or whatever the next thing is. I just think it's actually scary that we are currently at a time where there's a large portion of Americans who do not believe

Western allies in general because the UK also confirmed Iran fired these missiles. But we just don't trust our governments anymore. But it is still strange to believe Iran over this. These are not good people. they do not like us. So it's really just difficult to know who's telling the truth. I'm only going to say this. I live in the United States. I'm going to go ahead and just lean towards.

I don't know if I can trust them. Actually, I know I probably can't. But I'm going to have to go with them on this one anyway because I have no reason to support or want Iran any kind of success in this regard. Do you think that something like this, if it proves out, will bring the UK and other NATO allies into this conflict? Well, didn't we see what, like seven nations? Yeah, they've sort of been dithering around, but they're not really doing anything. Well, I mean, Iran has launched missiles at Diego Garcia, which as of now is still British territory.

That's still to be seen. But I think that alone plus Trump saying, yeah, we need to help cleaning up. If you want to use the straight, you need to help us clean it up. Then you saw that joint, you know, statement from Japan and all of them saying, okay, yeah, yeah, okay, we'll do it. Again, we just... It was 4,000 kilometers, apparently. Wow. I just think it's insane that these countries have.

haven't stepped up. And it just continues to show that we use this word allies, but they really, it doesn't really mean anything because when push comes to shove, like even the straight, we're energy independent here today, including our oil production. We've increased oil. That was one of his top priorities. So we could step away from this, but for the fact that then the IRGC gets control and this was all for nothing. But that's why I think he's pushing and testing Europe and some of these other allies to say, you have to step up because your oil is in jeopardy more than ours is at this point. And I still think China's getting oil from Iran. That's happening. There's been conflicting

reports, but guess who's getting rich off of all of this? It's Russia. I mean, they're making our red reports $150 million in the sale of oil. Well, I think that's why Trump just lifted the sanctions for 30 days on the oil that's... But they're getting rich off of this.

That's what was such a shame was because we were flooding the market with the Venezuelan oil and that was hurting Russia because, obviously, their war machine and whatnot is built off of not entirely but energy prices. And then all of a sudden, now we spiked the oil price back. But more importantly, who's lying? So the official number is that the range of the missiles towards Diego Garcia were 4,000 kilometers, where previously it was believed Iran only had a 2,000 kilometer range for their missiles. Who's lying? Is this a false flag by the

U.S. and Israel to rally support against Iran or did Iran actually do this? Here's the issue I take with the false flag narrative. The people who believe that the U.S. is capable of doing a false flag. The false flag, the false flags that conspirators believe the has pulled off are substantially more successful. Just launching some missiles and claiming they went this far but were intercepted is not typically how one would perceive a false flag from the West, who again tends to be more successful, like the Gulf of Tonkin incident. In which case, if Western powers really wanted to cast a spouseli to get our allies or to get public support for a war in Iran, why do a thing in the middle of nowhere no one can see or believe that has no success and causes no damage?

That doesn't seem to make sense to me. They could literally just have like a fake terrorist blow up killing civilians and then be like, oh, look, it happened. It makes more sense that Iran's got crummy missiles that can go pretty far and didn't work, but did go farther than we thought. Well, look at how Iran even attacked its proxies and then started apologizing for some of the attacks. So this is all Iran. And the thing is their central command is no longer in charge because most of the IRGC, the top leaders have been taking out. So think about the proxy still. We're fighting this disorganized underground war.

And this is not by the United States or Israel. This is Iran. And now they're poking a bear. And we need places like Europe and some of these other countries to step up. This is honestly a godsend given that President Trump has said five days. Because within those five days, all of these. quote, allies that are supposed to be our friends need to step up. I don't think, I don't know if they will, but I do believe that the U.S. will put boots on the

ground, at least on Karg Island, the reporting that we're seeing. There was some really interesting information from Polly Market. Someone tracked 10 accounts brand new, all purchased a contract on a ceasefire with Iran before March 31st. The probability that happening was 10%. So yesterday, they buy up all of these contracts. This morning, Trump announces peace talks. The probability jumps to 20% doubling their money.

So they can cash out with a clean 100,000 profit. If they are proven correct, they get over a million dollars, if this actually happens. Now, I don't know that there will actually be a peace deal. I think someone knew Trump was going to send that statement, which would be enough to boost the price of those contracts they could then sell it a profit. someone knows what the plan is. Now, beyond that, I think Trump is in a bind. I think Trump supporters are, I'll give respect to some Trump supporters trying to maintain morale. I don't always just say it's deceit for the sake of deceit. I think a lot of Trump supporters saying, no, no, no, I trust Trump

on this one because they want Trump, they want high morale, they need this to succeed, they don't want Trump to scrub. I respect that. Losing in Iran, after all this started, would be substantially worse than like, I think it was a mistake to go in, but losing would be worse than anything else right now. I agree with that. But I don't believe Trump's being honest about everything that's going on. I think the escalation is happening, and I think he keeps saying there's going to be de-escalation because he wants to protect the markets. I think Trump is often not honest about this stuff. I mean, I think a lot of what he does is behind the scenes. And so he'll say something on the surface. He'll say something publicly that then turns out to not be the thing. But he says that

that in order to gain something in some other part of whatever negotiation he's doing. And I think that's, you know, I think that sort of makes sense. I mean, you can't be entirely transparent with the American people without being entirely transparent to the world. And that's probably not the best thing to be, you know. But at the same time, I mean, I'm sort of with you on this. I'm, I wasn't a big fan of this incursion to Iran. It seemed like, like, why now? And when I keep hearing, well, Iran's been at war with us for 47 years. I'm like, okay, but like so has everybody, basically. Like, why now?

Iran's a special case in this regard. That's true. I mean... Sure. I mean, Iran's been coming at us for a long time, but like, so why now? But I'm, you know, in terms of... Israel wanted to attack them. And I think because Israel knows their support in the United States is over and this is

their last opportunity. Yeah, I think that that's part of it too. But I do think now that we're doing it, and this is kind of the J.D. Vance perspective, too. like this isn't my preference, but now that we're doing it, like, do it all the way and finish it. You know, you can't like leave it half done because leaving it half done will then be a drag on thing for a million years.

You cannot regime change a nation of 90 million people from the air. It's not possible. No, you can't. And so. And we're sending in a bunch of Marines. There's talk of more Marines. There are, there are rumors that I don't want to mention because I talked about this this morning, rumors in the D.C. area.

But let me first start by saying loose lip. sink ships. What does that mean? So back in World War II, you could have a guy who's a pilot, and he starts packing his bags, and a neighbor sees him packing his bags, and he goes, holy crap, I think he's deploying. He then tells his friends, hey, my buddy's a pilot, my neighbor, he's deploying, he's packing up, he's going somewhere. And I know he, all of a sudden the enemy knows, here's information on who they may be about to deploy, look out for air attacks. So that being said, I won't go to the details of the rumors. But based on what we're hearing in the area, it sounds like there will be additional troops being deployed for the purpose of taking

Carg Island. And this is just based on what people are noticing in the area. But, you know, I don't even need to say that. There's a viral photo of a troop eating lobster and steak. And they were like, ablicks, too. There were a lot of crabs. And it's like, it's so amazing to see that our troops are being well fed. And then someone quote tweets it and says, nobody tell them. Yeah. And someone, then it's posted on Reddit saying, what does this mean? And the response is, it means you're going to war. It means you will be entering enemy territory. Of course. The troops know that that's what's going on.

They're smart enough. I was actually very moved and someone's like, oh, that's just dumb mom vibes or whatever. But I was very moved to them. I went on a Pentagon trip and I saw a bunch of recruits being sworn in. And I thought, like, you know, these are the kids who are going to be shot up if we go into war with Iran. And that was a couple of weeks ago. It was before we went into war with Iran. And I think that that's something people really.

need to remember. The kids who get shot up are, you know, Kentucky, Iowa, like Ohio. Ohio, you know, I mean, West Virginia, it's all these kids. And so when you're thinking about this, you really have to imagine, you know, you really have to want the absolute best for these kids, for these troops, and for our country. And if that's going big and like getting it done, whatever it is and getting it done as quickly as possible with the least amount of casualties, that's at this point that's what I'm in favor of yeah I mean like two things can be simultaneously yeah exactly I don't want to be in this war but two now that we are in this war let's do this correctly it's find this job which to accomplish our goals yeah quickly you know and

like keep our troops in mind you know they're i mean Lindsay Graham talking about our troops like they're just numbers on an excel sheet is disgusting these are our kids yeah and he came out today or it was today or last night and he was like carg Island's going to be this generation's iwo jima What? Screw you, Lindsey Brown. I think we've heard a little too much out of this. I think we've heard a little. I don't think that's what President Trump thinks. And I don't think anybody wants to be in war.

I think most Americans would say we don't want war. I respectfully disagree about Iran, though. We talk about the 47 years, but they have literally been building and increasing their uranium intake. And to a point where you even have some of the military members that have come on the news and talked about the fact that they were between, six and ten nukes away from taking our embassies out to even some of our allies. And I don't want to be a sitting duck like we were at 9-11 where we weren't ready. I want to be on the offense. They didn't need nukes at 9-11. Well, I'm just saying, but even 9-11, we don't need another catastrophe like that. No, I want to be somebody who's actually proactive. I agree with you.

I agree with you on that. While thinking about the troops and making sure that we're making the best decisions. And I know this wasn't political for Trump because we're, we're, up against a midterm. This is going to be one of the hardest ones for us to win and to hold on to. But he still made a decision based on the intel he had and felt that this was the best decision. And to me, again, the fact that Israel's in it, great. They're an ally. But Israel doesn't dictate what the United States does. It doesn't dictate what President Trump does, in my opinion. I think it's important to remember. You brought up 9-11. And the thing about 9-11 is they didn't need nukes, right? So a lot can be done with

very conventional warfare and a lot of attitude. And I think we have to be wary of that as well. 100%. We got this from the Wall Street Journal. Thousands of Marines to arrive in Centcom the same day as Trump's Iran deadline. Thousands of U.S. Marines are slated to arrive in the Middle East on Friday. According to two U.S. officials, the day President Trump has set the deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. They say that Japan-based amphibious assault ship USS Tripoli, the amphibious loading dock U.S.S. New Orleans and roughly 2,200 Marines from the 31st Marine Expedition Unit. We'll cross into U.S. Central Command, which is responsible for U.S. force in the Middle East.

On Friday, the official said it would take another few days for the unit to get to the straight of Hormuz. So I'm wondering, the implication, I suppose, is that Trump says he's going to give another five days is not actually about negotiating. It's about giving our forces time to get to the region and get prepared for a ground incursion or invasion. Sounds like that may be the case, because we are, while Trump is saying he's holding off, we are actively debilers. deploying ground troops to the region. Yeah. That could make sense. Very well.

I mean, five days. It also helps their stock market a little bit. Yep. I think Trump is concerned, look, I'll put it this way. We knew we were going to attack Iran. Trump went in and removed Maduro for the purpose of getting us oil supplies before he went to Iran. That was actually kind of clever. Yes.

Exactly. What probably happened is they're in the situation room or they're in a skiff or whatever. And he says, we're going to strike Iran. We can't. They'll cut off the Strait of Hormuz. What happens then? the global economy will collapse. How can we alleviate that?

We need oil from somewhere. Where can we go? Well, Venezuela. Trump says, can we get Maduro and get our oil back in Venezuela? They say, that should be pretty easy. Then we do that first. Then we strike Iran.

So we've got massive, massive amounts of oil now flowing from Venezuela into, and we've also got that embargo on Cuba, which is hilarious. And then, I mean, the leftists going there is hilarious. Not the people something. And, well, I mean, I don't care. Screw that government.

The communists. But now we have this trade Hormuz being disrupted, but Venezuelan oil afloin, keeping things somewhat stable, I think Trump's statements are largely about market stabilization, fearing economic collapse if panic erupts over

a World War III. Well, look at what happened at like 710 when he made a statement that we were going to pause for five days, the stock market goes up 2%. So this is all, anytime he speaks, there's a lot of market volatility up and down. Yeah, I mean, the oil prices

dropped today as well. So, I mean, there are some incursionate signs, but the gas prices are just through the roof now. We're talking four bucks around here. It was $2.00.90 a month ago. It's at $4.00. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, I won't say like which ones, but along my route.

Hey, let's be real. I mean, isn't a buck or two per gallon worth it for a clean conscience? I don't care. I drive a Tesla. So true. That is a Stephen Colbert, by the way. Yeah. But the Internet is full of grifters and idiots and liars, and everyone's just lying. You know what I think one of the largest problems we have is for a long time is the grifter class.

Yes. That they just say whatever to generate attention. And then regular people are ill-informed and it causes political disruption where we need it to be stable. So I do wonder what the plan is for the powers that be. I mean, obviously they're going to a war and this war is massively unpopular. How are they going to control that messaging? And I'm not saying that they should or it's good. But I'm saying they need to if they want to succeed in these operations.

If they want to control American public perception. I would do daily briefings. And it's got to be somebody like Pete Hexeth, who is talking to the American people. And as much information as they can share, they need to start doing that. They've been doing a lot of them. That's going to get, what, 200,000 views on the dying cable networks. And then the top podcasts are going to go on and say that Erica Kirk's a zombie. And they're going to get 50 million views collectively.

I mean, Hexsetsh has been doing press briefings. things a couple of times a week at 8 o'clock in the morning, you know, and I've been tuning in and watching them. A lot from your tomb's been in the room, you know? Of course, but it doesn't matter. But it doesn't matter. And the thing is that, the thing is, it doesn't matter what question you ask. They're never going to give you information that they're not already prepared to give you.

Yeah. And it's like, this idea that like, and I might lose some people here, but bear with me, the idea that they need to sell us the war is also like a false pretense. It's like, no, if you're going to do it, do it, but then explain what. in it for us after the fact in the sense of this is what Trump's primary concern always was with the Iraq war, with Afghanistan. Yes, he had some geopolitical qualms. You know, he was saying it was a nightmare, it took forever, et cetera.

But it's number one issue, and you can see this consistently through every single time he talked about these wars before he was a politician, is he said, where's the oil? Like, we conducted this massive operation. You know, we moved heaven and earth and make these invasions happen. But what was in it for the Americans as far as a tangible, like real reward? Because you look in the past how empires conducted their. affairs, the British, the Portuguese, the Spanish, all of these empires, when they would conduct operations overseas, they would return with goodies. They'd say, look, we have tea now and all these

exciting new resources for the people back in the home countries. The American Empire, so to speak, doesn't really operate that way. It's like the rewards are geopolitical. It's hard to quantify. It's hard for us to comprehend where Trump, if he really wants to sell this war, so to speak, what he does is he drives oil prices back down with a successful operation. He explains the American people, why this operation resulted in more money in your pocket. That's how you sell it. You don't need to sell it by saying, you know, it's about this like pincer movement on China and like stabilize. People don't like, we might respond to that and to people watching, but we're like, what, five percent of the country? The majority people are just like, yo, gas just went up another

20 cents. What's going on over there? Why can't these people in the desert figure this out? Like, what's going on? So that's how you do it. If you're Trump, and Trump understands it's very well. This is why he's such a genius. This is why he's such a genius politically. It's because he understands people respond to reward. People need to be incentivized to participate in politics. Well, also, people respond to Trump when he makes sure that everyone gets to retain their dignity. You know, that's why his negotiations globally have tended to work because he knows what everyone needs in order to stay in the negotiation.

He treats everyone with respect and he lets everyone maintain their own, you know, sense of respect. Yeah, and beyond that. Everyone saves face when they're negotiating with Trump. They save face, but he also understands that every country at the negotiating table is self-interested, so he's not going to like pander and honestly in my opinion patronize a lot of these like especially european that's why he's so into the bilateral agreements instead of the like you know ones between a whole bunch of people at once right yeah and the bilateral also he likes

negotiating two countries so they can weave it together makes it more difficult for war to break out oh the weed it's a weave all over the place but no yeah trump like trump understands this is trump like geopolitics 101 is he understands that no matter who's at the negotiating table he knows that they're going to be self-interested looking out for their people and that's sadly such a massive from like every government over the last 60 to 70 years. You understand when you sit at the table with Russia, they're not looking to like make a deal to all benefit both of us. They're just like, what's in it for Russia?

And we need to be like, what's in it for us? The big question I have for all of these people is they're like, what are they doing generally? Right. This is why that we're talking about Tucker Carlson saying that we've got to share power now. The theory, of course, on Thucydides Trap that I had mentioned previously is that these ultra wealthy elites basically get together for a conference and just say, and just say, what's the point? Why fight? Like we have more than we could ever want. And beyond that, what do we even do anymore? They basically just say, we're rich, successful, powerful, we're smart.

Let's just control everything. And so then it feels like a lot of this is fake for some other reason. Maybe the reality is that Donald Trump really is an insurgent candidate who's defying the elites who are trying to create this. all rich, screw the people reality, and Trump's like, no, America's going to be the best thing ever. Or maybe everything's fake. Fake and gay. Yeah, that's also very likely that everything is fake and gay. I think that's reality. That seems to be the perception of a lot of people, like...

Especially Gen Z. Yeah, like, normal people perceiving this war as we're just like, what's with all these gay guys? Oh, I got to say, like, the stupidest thing imaginable is the people who are like, we are in this war because they were killing their citizens. Oh, yeah. Some people do believe that. And I'm okay. But you don't think they were killing their citizens? No, it's not true that we're at war with Iran because they were killed in.

Oh, that's correct. Yeah. Yeah. The people who are saying like, we went to war with Iran because they're killing their citizens. No, we didn't. Correct. We would have been in China 20 years ago. A hundred percent.

Saving the Uighur people. Yeah. Or, I mean, but you also have Tiananmen Square. You have Hong Kong. We don't go into countries. No. People are being killed. We go in there when we have an interest.

And we'll use people being killed as our excuse. You know what I mean? We would just be at war with like eight African countries at all times. I mean, we have conquered Cuba already. Venezuela, long time. When do we go into Cuba? When do we just take over Cuba? What do you mean?

We already did. We sent Hassan. He's our sleeper agent. Right, but he's back now with his, you know, $2,000. People don't realize Hassan was dispatched by Trump. He's like, I need you to go in. You're my special little sleeper communist. Like Hassan's actually a super-based laissez-faire, like anarchist, you know.

pretending to be a communist to infiltrate the left and say dumb things. It's a brilliant play. Yeah. So do you think we are going to go take over Cuba? That should be pretty good. I don't think we're going to invade Cuba and take it over, but I think it's ours. You think it's ours now? I think Cuba will fall into the Western sphere of influence.

I mean, the people there are protesting, they don't care about the government. They just want to be able to go to the bathroom and watch TV. And not die in the hospital because the power goes out in the middle of surgery. And also, hello, the secretary of state is Mark Garubia. Like, he has a total accident going to run at Cuba, of course. We're going to own it the next couple years. And maybe they want some new cars. I mean, they're still driving cars from the 50s.

I kind of like, you know, I know people are like, it's a cool aesthetic. I think it's a cool aesthetic. People are always like, Zoomers think like them struggling under communism is a joke. I'm like, no, the cars are cool. The cars are cool. They're cool. Do you know, my son is like, so he's on the verge of getting his license kind of thing. Yeah.

He's like, I want a mid-2000s Toyota Carola. Yeah. Like, that's a dream car. Yeah. I drive, I won't say which model, but it's like, you know, mid-a-auts. Yeah. I'm proud of it. I'm like, it's a retro, it's a classic.

It's vintage. Yeah. It's a beautiful thing. I don't know. One of my favorites is like a 2009 Cadillac sedan. Yeah. Yeah. And we could bring that the Cuban, and they'll be like, whoa.

You're right. Brand news. I'd love to just pretend because it's funny that Hassan is actually like a hardcore laissez-faire guy pretending to be a communist. He goes to Cuba, pretending. Everyone's yelling at him and being like, you communist should not. They're supporting communism. He's actually planting those discombobulator devices to cause a vanis syndrome on people.

Yeah. in the Cuban government. As he's like chucking food out the tour bus at the starving children. Is that what he was doing? Yeah, they were throwing food out of the tour bus. And they were like, you know, filming everybody. We're helping.

We're helping. Did you see the people who were like, we're building, we're painting a mural for Humanaidad? And you're like, what? They have plenty of artists in Cuba. They don't need your crappy white lady mural on this building with your boats and your little like notes of love. Like, shut up.

He was wearing like $5,000 worth of clothing. Yeah, I saw that. Everything you were wearing. It was a really nice shirt. Yeah, it's dripper drowned. Apparently his ring and pants were also like high end too. I don't know. The glasses were like 17 times.

Because it's a pro, it's to show the Cubans the glory of capitalism. You too could be a stream. That's why I'm saying is a sleeper agent. That's the low key. People are like, it doesn't make sense that Hassan Piker is a socialist who lives in a $5 million mansion and has like a $200,000 car and wears all this luxury. And I'm like, because he's, listen, the play the whole time. was, you know, he's at his like Rothbard fan club meeting. And they're like, we need someone to pretend to be Akami and go online and rally them all and say really dumb things to keep them

confused so we can win. And that's what Hassan does. Yeah. It's just inspiring, quite frankly, to see that you can be like retarded and make that much money. Like, America's awesome, dude. This is the best country. Hassan was at a Mises caucus meeting and they were like, we need someone to to jump on the grenade to be that fake communist to infiltrate and destroy and then he stands up a single tear comes on his eye and he goes I'll do it and they're like Hassan no you're the greatest capitalist we've ever known it was no I can pretend to be a really stupid retarded communists and he's pulled it off swimmingly he's a master of his craft method actor honestly quite something yeah it was the national chud summit and they're actually

I actually don't hate Hassan as much as there's other left as they're substantially worse. I do think that you are correct that when he flaunts his wealth, it's inadvertently a great show of capitalism. Oh, 100%. I want to do what he's doing. He's like, oh, well, I live in a capitalist country where I can get rich complaining on the internet. And they're like, I would like that. Yeah, one of those, please. We don't have that. Yeah. One bay of pigs, please. One bay of pigs, please. One bay to go. Let's jump to this story from the Kobasey letter. This is where it gets crazy, ladies and gentlemen, check this out. At 6.50 a.m. today, 1.5 billion. dollars in notional value worth of the S&P 500 futures contracts were bought.

This trade was so large and sent the entire index up 0.3% higher that minute. Then 14 minutes later, Trump announced productive discussions with Iran were underway. By 7.10 a.m., the S&P had added $2 trillion in market cap. Take a look at this. That jump right there looks like insider trading. But the question is, is it really insider trading if you know the president's going to make an announcement? is that insider trading? I don't know.

But whoever made those purchases, boy, did they just get rich. Wow. But wait, there's more. Let me pull this one in first. Kobasi letter says traders placed $580 million of oil trades 15 minutes prior to Trump's post about a potential peace deal with Iran. 6,200 Brent and WTI futures contracts were traded between 649 and 650. 1.5 billion in ocean of value that we saw.

It is not known whether one entity, the original. or several entities were behind those trades, these trades likely generated over $100 million worth of profit in around 20 minutes. And then he says, they, this is unprecedented. Short positions in Brent crude oil features by producers, merchants, processors, and commercial users are up to a record, 139 billion. These are the companies that physically produce, refined trade, and consume oil. Short positions have doubled since the start of the year.

By comparison, the 2022 energy crisis peak was around 155. billion. By selling futures contracts at today's prices, producers are agreeing to sell their future oil at around $100 per barrel, even if the market price falls by the time they actually pump it. This guarantees their revenue regardless of where prices go next, protecting their margins when prices normalize oil producers are seeing unprecedented profitability. Long story short, ladies and gentlemen, people somewhere know exactly what the long-term play on all of this will be, and they are getting rich off it. Now, the shorts on oil are interesting because a short is a bet that a stock will fall. So if they're shorting now, they are suspecting oil will drop down. I will add additionally

that rumors circulating in D.C. have been the entire time that this will not last, this conflict, more than a few weeks. So we're already at a few weeks when Trump announces this. The rumors are that it's going to be over relatively shortly. And it could just be, I've heard those same rumors too. So somebody went in and bought a bunch of stocks hearing rumors in D.C. Or it could be these rumors are born. Well, it could also be that because of these purchases, people spread rumors. I think loose lips are happening in D.C.

Somebody in the Trump administration or in some department told a friend, yeah, what's probably going to happen is this because this is happening. It's not classified, but it's speculation. everybody hears in the D.C. area, they dump millions making this bet, and then they are proven correct. So I would just call it wisdom of the crowd, or at least of the insiders, to suggest this war may be winding down sooner than we think, despite troop movements, which I certainly hope would be the case. Yeah, I mean, I think there's a realistic situation in which, like, we actually do just negotiate our way out. I mean, this is, like, the thing with Trump is he's proven over and over again he can, like negotiate in these really tight situations. So this could

just be a plan truster making a bet here. That could be the, reality of the situation. There is like a lot of these people out of there. There's just complete total plan trusters. And they actually are just taking Trump at his word when he's saying like, no, this will be like. Like everybody who bought the, uh, Trump truth social stock? Well, well, there was the people that said when Trump, when Trump literally posted today would be like a good day to buy stocks and then like, you know, drop the tariffs down and then the stock market exploded. This could be a similar situation where Trump is keep saying over and over again, hey, this war's going to end in a few weeks. This could just be people that are like taking him at his word.

Like, I don't know. I'll just trust him. Or he's right. And he's right. And, Trump doesn't want a protracted war in a midterm year. Yeah. And Iran knows this, so they're just waiting it out. Yeah, like, he could just be like being transparent. Like, hey, yeah, this is going to end a few weeks. What will the political ramifications of failure be? If Trump...

Oh, failure would be bad. If Trump ceases hostilities and the Iranian regime stabilizes and announces a new Supreme Leader because Mostab is probably dead. But let's just say they claim he's still there and everything goes back to status quo. It's going to be miserably bad. I mean... Yeah, no, he can't. He can't lose.

he's in a no lose I don't think he gets out and tell the leaders installed that he's going to be willing to work with which is why I really want to know who he's talking to yeah I mean there's there's the potential to leave total chaos behind then that's failure and Trump doesn't accept failure yeah but that's what we've done in other places that was right you're 100% right but that wasn't trump like I agree we should we should have gotten out of Afghanistan we were trying to do regime change that's not what we're doing here we're trying to get rid of our new the nuclear facilities, and make sure correct because they're radical and they're crazy and there's going to be somebody else. But there could be somebody that we can work with at the top so that when

we leave, we can continue to work with them on the Strait of Hermuz and our oil prices don't go up and down every time there's a conflict. It's 90 plus million people. You remove their governments through airstrikes and there are more than enough ideologues to take that country back over. That's the problem with trying regime change in Iran. I've talked. I've talked about. about this with the United States. We've talked about civil unrest, conflict, crisis, etc. Manhattan. How many people live on Manhattan Island? Libby, do you know? I don't know. There's like 8.5 million in the city. Do you want to just do a quick Google search for total population? Because it went down recently.

I can do. But at one point it was 2.5 million. It might be around 2 million right now. Two million people on that one island. So did you get it? Yeah, but 1.6. Whoa. Wow. Wow, that's a major decline. Well, 1.6 now? Shorting Manhattan. Either way, this number matters. Because think about it this way. What percentage of people who live in Manhattan would you need to seize the island of Manhattan and turn it into a fortress colony? Well, you could ask Alexander Hamilton, and they failed.

I got six or seven buddies. But you need to control all the bridges. You need to be able to occupy street corners. So in all seriousness, that number might be 30 or 40,000. Maybe less. Maybe 10,000. thousand, yeah. So what is that?

What percentage of Manhattan Island at 1.6 million needs to be radicalized to seize control and put everybody under their regime? Like less than 10%. Yeah. That's, I, Carter, 10,000 is substantially less than 15%. It's at least less than 75%. 15% would be around 200,000. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

But he's not wrong. That's less than 10%. You're absolutely right, Carter. They're doing a lot of stuff over here. You know, math is not my best. So during the Revolutionary War, at 1776, there were about 25,000 people living in Manhattan. And they lost, right? I mean, they were not able to retain control of Manhattan.

6%. And that's because there were 32,000 British and Heshan troops. So it took 32,000 troops to subdue a population of 25,000. I do not believe that is the same today. There's around 30. I mean, that's a huge. I mean, it took far more. No, no, no, that's not true today. They're around 30,000 NYPD officers. So not that New York is completely stable, but yes, people still follow the law. So you have 30K NYPD and people largely let that system run. You do not need that many people. I mean, heck, let's just say 10%. Let's say really 10% were radicalized.

160,000 people. Your tunnels are shut down, destroyed. There's there. The, there, there, there, there, The police can't do anything about it. I don't even know the military would get in there to deal with 160,000 people in urban guerrilla warfare occupying buildings in windows with rifles if it really got to that point. So when you take a look at Iran with 90 million, if you had 1% of the country radicalized partisans, 900,000 people refusing to allow a new regime to come in, you get a revolution overnight. Regular people who live in these countries in America or otherwise are largely like,

leave me out of it. So we can blow up. every single one of these people, but you still have 90 million. And they're not going to the U.S. just coming and take over. It's not going to work without a massive occupation of that country. Yeah, and then we would have to be up for

doing that occupation. Carg Island makes sense. They seize Iran's oil distribution, and that really hurts them. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I think at least it seems like the objective from the Trump administration here is the same as it was in Venezuela and what it would be in Cuba, which is you just keep

the regime in place. You just like, forced them to play ball. But that's not what's going on here, right? I mean, at this point, like, early on, so February 28th was when we started this whole bombing campaign with Israel. But short, I think it was that weekend when Trump said that the people who he'd hoped to negotiate with who he thought would be able to take over Iran were killed. Yeah.

So, I mean, they took out the people that they thought they could hand the regime over to. I mean, that's tough because, look, like us and Israel have different. different targets in Iran as well. So Israel's going for regime change. Sure. Sure. It's not, you saw yesterday where Trump was berating the Israelis. I don't even know if Israel's going for regime change as much as Israel's going to just completely decently. Iran. I mean, Iran's one of the countries that in 48 kicked out like, you know, hundreds of thousands of Jews who ended up on Israel's doorstep all of a sudden. Right. And this isn't like any, I'm not like saying anything about what is, like if Israel's in the right or wrong as far as like their goals here. I'm just saying like

clearly they are out of steps. So, you know, if they were taking out like if they're settling scores really in Iran. That might not be like in the Trump administration's like that might not be their prerogative. They could be actually seeking. You're dealing with two different, they're overlapping goals, but there are diverging goals. You saw like yesterday where Trump was going out and saying they bombed the like like the gas. It's like why. Right. Yeah. And he said, you know, to Iran at that point, if you go after Qatar over this, we're going to take out the whole thing. Meheck, to what you were saying you wanted to know who he was, who they were talking to. It looks like Galabath, a speaker.

I haven't seen that. So they did say they were talking to that guy? Well, I'm seeing like people saying that the U.S. officials were holding talks with Iran's parliament speaker. Interesting. Yeah, he would when the president was on today, he wouldn't confirm that myself. I'm just

seeing that on, you know, the internet. Yeah, it looks like the Hill's reporting reportedly leading talks with Muhammad Galabaf. Interesting. It's a speaker of Iran's Parliament. Right. Yeah, that's who that would. I don't know if that's for sure, but that's what I'm seeing. Let's show to this next story from Inside Nova. Ashburn residents being offered $4 million per acre to sell to data center developers. Oh, boy. We've talked about it quite a bit, my friends, but the machine is going to gobble up your neighborhood and it's going to pay you off. There's a big store that's been going on and it's been kept under wraps.

$4 million an acre. I would sell for $4 million an acre and I only have one acre. Because it was 200,000 to 500,000 an acre before. Yeah. So this is crazy. A nice payday could be on the way for homeowners in Ashburn's Regency neighborhood. Data Center Dynamics reports, residents are being offered over $4 million per acre to sell their property. Data Center developers. I got to be honest.

If I owned property there, they came to me in, and they said, we'll give me $8 million per acre. I'd say, give me $8 million per acre. I'll sign it right now. They'd probably say yes. That's, okay, fine. That's desperation. $4 million is a heck of a lot. It's not that it's desperation.

It's that these companies have infinite money. So they can go in and offer whatever number they need to to buy up this property. Wow. And I will stress these data centers in Virginia, I believe, you know what? Let me just cut all the noise out and say it's the end of days. Have a nice day. You think the data centers are the end of days? Yes.

This industry that we're doing right here is over. It is completely over. And it's fascinating because I've had a bunch of calls recently as I've talked about the business, the industry companies wanted about the podcasting space. And we've talked about over the past year or two that every, every single media producer has complained about a decline in viewership. Like it's getting worse and worse for the cable networks. They're planning on canceling the shows.

Kennedy just launched a podcast. Yeah, it's crazy. It is. Did she Jake Tapper doing his like sort of podcast setup? This is a desperate move because their ratings are declining. But ratings are declining for a couple of reasons. CBS just shut down radio. and it was announced that their nightly news viewership is down dramatically.

They claimed that Tony Ducopal was, is that how you say his name? I don't know. He was in the chopping block or not him, but somebody was, and then CBS denied it. But their viewership is down. Colbert gets canceled. And they slashed his staff. Kimmel's. Kimmel was canceled too, right?

Like they announced Kimmel's show was ending. I don't know. I didn't see that. I thought they did and then they didn't. Well, he got in trouble. So he went on time out, I thought. And now he's back on. I think they're ending his show at a.

Oh, God. So he's on permanent timeout. I'm okay with that. Oh, no, no. I was, I was wrong. All right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's through May 27. I think of that. We had a one-year extension until next year. Yeah, but Colbert is canceled. And so... What about Jimmy Fallon? I don't know, but what I will say is this. The reason for this decline is decentralization and ease of content production. So podcasts and social media and YouTube displaced cable TV. It was so easy for regular people to make content that people would just like, I'd rather watch a more authentic guy than Jake Tapper. Now, you have an expansion in the ease of content creation where people can go to AI and

make mini-docs and just spam blast them. And they're producing hundreds of these per day. And there's thousands of people doing it, meaning that it's becoming increasingly difficult to be an independent content creator. AI is going to end. It's just, we're already seeing a lot of jobs get lost. Now, we did talk about earlier that some of these companies are hiring people back because AI is actually fairly bad.

But the ultimate question will be for these companies, is your efficiency drop worth the save on labor? And the answer is overwhelmingly going to be yes, in the long run as AI improves. Now, I also think that what they're doing in Northern Virginia is building Skynet. They're building like the evil Ultron machine that will kill everybody. Northern Virginia, this is the deep state.

This is the home of intelligence. This is where they steal everyone's private data from, you know, it's the federal government building their, their, their, their, their, their, mega machine. What we are witnessing is the massive and rapid expansion without care, which will transform and destroy our economy so rapidly. I don't know how this results in anything other than mass poverty. The way it's been described to me by some several, by several wealthy individuals is that in the next few years, you will have, it's going to be like Elysium.

You ever see that movie? where all the rich people speak French and live in a space station and all the poor people live on earth and can barely and are struggling to get by and living on top of each other. Sort of like hunger gamesish. Hunger gamesish, indeed. Yeah. That's if you own property right now, if you are, there is, how do I describe this? Let me put it like this.

If you know how much money you have, then you are poor. That's the Andrew Tate quote. So there's going to be a buy for kids. right now. The people who don't know how much money they have is the easy way to explain it. When the AI takes over, they will be the elite class forever. And the people who know how much money they have will be the labor, impoverished class forever or just isolated and then slowly just wither away, I guess. And this will dramatically reduce population. The way Andrew Tate describes it, and it's actually a really great point that, say what you want about the guy. He explains wealth very well. He explains wealth very

well. He says, I don't know how much money I have. He's like, I have no idea. I have a portfolio managed by somebody else. I have properties that change value every day. I don't even, I've got so many bank accounts, not even how much money's in them. And then he said, if you know how much money you have, you're poor. Because you are tracking your, your money and you actually, I mean, the truth is, Elon Musk does not know how much money is. The value changes every day. He's got assets. He's probably got a wealth manager that are making moves behind his back. He doesn't know about, I'm not saying behind his back, but like for him, without him knowing. With these data centers, you've had people, as we mentioned, they're going to open, they're going to hire, they're going to buy robots and kiosks to make the cheeseburgers for their burger shop.

There's not going to be people to buy the cheeseburgers. Right, that's an issue. There are going to be jobs that generate revenue for the people that have to live under the system. And they will have to do some kind of labor to the benefit of the people who own things. In Ukraine, I went there in 2014 and 2016. and I was actually considering moving there at the time because things were relatively stable and there were, it's like,

it's like the average income of a Ukraine was 400 bucks a month. The average rent was something like $100 a month for like a downtown apartment. That was fairly nice. Like a hundred bucks, but to buy the apartment, it was $400,000. And I'm sitting here thinking myself,

who can afford $400,000 in Ukraine, oligarchs. Ukraine's an oligarchy. All the land is owned by like 16 people. All the property is owned by the same 16 people. They are ultra wealthy elites who can afford to buy it. But there were people who were doing coding jobs for like 150K a year. So these people were the ultra wealthy of Ukraine.

And so I look at a country like that. That's what I think the U.S. will turn into. You will own nothing and you will be happy and there will be a tiny pocket of maybe 30,000 ultra wealthy elites who will want for nothing forever. But who's writing this check? That's my biggest question right now. I don't think who's buying the property. It's undisclosed.

The data centers have infinite. Oh, I mean, it's probably the AI itself. Right. But as I'm looking at this article, it doesn't say the buyer won't identify who it is. Because it is the AI. Yeah. So we're in the middle of an AI arms race with China. The Middle East is in chaos.

And you mean to tell me that we shouldn't be asking more questions about who's trying to buy up this land in America? It's scary. But again, the AI itself is buying the land. It is a faceless company. So my conspiracy theory here, it's not really a conspiracy theory, I would surmise a decent probability. They have already told us publicly they've given some of these large language models access to the internet and finance.

They've given them money. I guarantee you these machines know how to make money off of the stock market better than any individual or corporation. We have known for a decade plus that many of the biggest is, investment firms use computers to execute trades rapidly faster than a human can to exploit. It's like arbitrage. When they see a trade going and they can get in between it and then take a fee off the top and then transfer it.

People do it with cryptocurrency as well. The theory is that the AI has already been unleashed either by a private corporation or the government itself. It has started generating money. And every researcher in AI will tell you this. when you ask the AI to solve a complex problem and ask it, what does it need to solve those problems or to expand? It says it'll always just say, I need more data centers. I need more resources. So the theory is then when you open it up to the internet, what will it do?

Everything in its power to start buying up land and generating and creating data centers. So there are weird buildings with no humans working in them. There are no lights in the building because they don't need lights because robots do the general maintenance and they don't need to see the way humans do. There are no cars outside. These are just big black boxes in Virginia. Yeah, it's so depressed. But like the AI, like now it's the AI is allowed to go on the internet and make money.

Like the AI is going to start getting hooked into like pyramid schemes. That'd be honest. Like, well, you buy my knives, please. Who has the liability? And then like there's a, buy my protein founder. The future is just one fat Indian guy and his family have all the money of the world because it successfully scammed the AI. He's getting experienced. Oh, no.

Bangalore. It seems legit. It's crazy. There is a theory that the houses surrounding the data centers are not actually inhabited by humans, but were constructed to make it look like a residential neighborhood. But you never go there because no one lives there. That's like in New York City, the houses, like there's a lot of houses near transit stations. and they're just sort of like a little bit of transit infrastructure in the house.

Yeah, in California, they have fake houses with oil pumps in them. Yeah. There's a fake house with a highway under it. I can't remember this. It might be in L.A. somewhere. So we actually covered this before. There are neighborhoods

that people suspect are empty because there's no cars and they never see people coming or going. But if no one lives there, why would a human ever go there, right? So the theory is, the data centers, the AI, builds a bunch of developments

around the data center to look like a residential neighborhood so that people don't grow suspicious the giant black box that are popping up. Big black death cube that says evil corp on it but there's a few houses

you're like oh this is... Here's the thing. Here's the thing. No one lives there so no one's invited over so no one drives in this neighborhood you only ever drive past it. You have no reason to drive into a dead end neighborhood

that goes nowhere unless by accident. So some people have claimed there are developments with no people just for the purpose of camouflage. And they've been like, I was just like driving on the neighbor and I went in this area. There was no cars. There were no people. The houses all seemed empty. And I was thinking, what is this?

Now, the truth is maybe it's just a new development. No one's bought property yet. But at the same time, I've also noticed a massive expansion of developments around where they're on this area because we're not far from Loudoun at a time of population decline. Yeah. So for what purpose are they are preparing to build lots and lots of houses? I don't know, but I will also stress with this story, the creepy thing is that where we are right now is in the power corridor for data center alley. And the theory, my understanding is that this area that we're in will comparably sell for psychotic prices because the data centers will need transmission lines.

So we've talked about it before. But the story goes, the reason these sales are happening quietly and. rarely reported on, which this is going to piss off a lot of people, is because residential, because human beings don't like it. So we covered a story where transmission lines are trying, they're trying to build transmission lines next to a Christmas tree farm in Mount Airy, Maryland. And they're fighting it saying, we don't want this. This is why none of these, this is why they sell it for four million. Yeah. They go to the family and they say, how much do you want to tell no one? Correct. And the crazy thing is, there are rumors, stories,

It's all urban legend that the sales, this is why people think it's the AI itself doing it. You'll get an email from a corporation saying we want to do a quiet quick sell with no agents for this property you own at a premium price of this amount. And then the people say, what do I need to do? And they'll say, we're going to mail you paperwork, you sign it, send it back, you will get the money in your account, and then leave. So they never even see a person. There are stories that we've been tracking.

high profile and there are some there was one that we read about just not too far from here something like a hundred acres sold for like 30 million dollars on an insane price quietly without an agent and it's not in the news anywhere there's a story of like the ashburn stuff we see quite a bit because there's not at record prices and there's a lot of people there starting to spread the news about it but in the area that we're in there are rumors from regular people as well as certain reports that have popped up indicating people have quietly been selling off their lots

for premium prices because either it's just a normal human being running an AI company and he says look people are going to get mad if they find out we're doing this but we need 300 acre lots per data center and so it could just be people that are doing it. It's like robots knocking people's doors with a briefcase

no one's going to believe you just also these fancy here is your check yeah I love it and I love and like the AI building the phantom neighborhoods like that's really exciting. That's, I love that. Like, we just start sending door-dashers in there a scouting mission.

So when they drop the food out, you can take the picture and then you can like see what's going on. Or when squatters find out about that. Oh, when the homeless find out about the phantom, it's over. It's going to be like robots versus the homeless. I'm sliding with the homeless.

I am too. They got their sticks and you're just like, hi. It's going to be awesome. Dude, it's going to be a brawl. R2D2ers. He's homeless. Give me the homeless.

The Fent soldier. Interesting. I do know there's a lot of pushback on the data centers. I mean, we're seeing it in Ohio where so many, there's like multi-million dollar campaigns just to convince people that this is okay or this is good. It's like Walmart coming into your neighborhood. You're all going to fight it. So it's the same thing.

It's documentaries where they have like the interview people of the town. They're like, yeah, we hear this buzzing all the time. I miss these old mom and pop data centers. We need to bring back the mom and pop. You know, someone sweep on the floors and the robots like kind of rusty and all right, welcome to that. You know, like what happens at that? All these big box data centers ruining this. What happened to Main Street, USA?

You know, your mom and pop data center. This country is just falling apart, man. That's the real problem. It's just terrible stuff. No, that road in Ashburn, just to keep the conversation flowing here. That road in Ashburn, absolutely petrifying. You're driving down, it's like literally feels like you're in Ukraine. Like, you're like, I kind of wish this place would get bombed.

They would improve aesthetic. No, out in Ashburn, because it's like these evil cubes on either side. And all the trees around there are dead for some reason. Here's the thing, though, about the... Maybe I'm on a bomb a bed. It might look better, honestly, quite frankly. I'm not a disavow. We don't should actually bomb ashburn.

In Northern Virginia, there's a lot of these sort of manufactured communities where it's like there's an anchor whole foods or a Wegmans. And then there's a lot of little restaurants. There's apartments. There's townhouses. And then, like, a little bit spread out more single family homes. And I was driving around there with my mom who hated it. Right?

She was like, this is absolutely cooking. cutter, it's horrible. Sure, but here's the thing, right? So throughout the 90s and the early 2000s, we were hearing from civil engineers that we needed to build more walkable communities with town centers. And nobody imagined that what it would look like is a prefab, manufactured, you know, crap-looking set of buildings and homes. But that's what that is. If you take like your sustainable vision and you put the money behind it that is the kind of money we have and not like millions of billions of dollars to make it look like something that was organic and sprung up over hundreds of years. That's what we're going to have.

And so these are the sustainable things. I'm going to, I'm going to, you, I talked about this last year, okay? And people, I see people in chat being like Tim's full of this stuff's not happening. I just pulled this up from governor.orgue.org, February, this is just a month ago, a $4 billion investment in a near 600, what is it, 1.9 million square foot in the eastern 600 megawatt critical IT capacity data center in Berkeley County. I told you this was happening. They are combining parcels. They are doing land acquisition deals quietly.

Now, to be fair, this was announced by the governor in a press release, but no one is covering this stuff. In where we are in West Virginia, we got Berkeley and Jefferson County. You need this land for data centers and for power transmission into data center alley in Virginia, which is only like from where we are 10 minutes, 15 minutes, if you want to get to Leesburg and get further down by like Ashburn's a bit further away. But I'm telling you, these companies are moving in quietly dumping billions of dollars buying out land. What you need to understand is in residential areas, the way the structure of human civilization in the United States, people own like

single acre lots. So you might have a 50 acre lot, a hundred acre a lot, but you're going to have a ton of half acre and single acre residential lots, how do you buy them all up at once? It is particularly difficult, and they need to do it quietly. It is happening. This is crazy because I said there was like a 300-acre plot that sold for millions last year quietly.

Some dude bought it for dirt and then sold it for like 30X, not even that long after. They are going to be moving in and just flooding the zone. It is going to get nuts. Totally. Well, and Libby, to your point with the prefab,

I live in one of those, like those prefab neighborhoods. And like the whole pitch for these was like, oh, it's going to rebuild this high trust society we have. You just don't see your neighbors anymore. But in mind, we all hide from each other. Of course. Everyone's from like a different country. So it's like the Olympic village of everyone was overweight.

That's what it's like. So we're all like hiding from each other. Like you see someone coming through the window and you're getting on the elevator, you shut the elevator. Sure. Like it's created the most dystopian. Is this like the, Before COVID or after COVID?

This is like this week. This is like right now. And so if you run into your neighbor at the Wegmans, you definitely don't know that it's your neighbor. I don't know who these people are. And I have to go to this, again, this prefab burger restaurant and like look at them. It's horrifying. I'm telling you, it really is just this. I'd rather live in the AI fabricated neighborhood with big homes.

I don't see how you stop this from happening. But understand what it means when your neighborhood gets taken over by an investment into a data center. There are no jobs there. it will drive up energy prices to an extreme degree. You will eventually, it's like the movie up, right? Instead of being surrounded by a shopping mall and human development, you'll be surrounded by a giant black box and there will be nothing, nothing for you there. Your neighborhood, your community will be turned into a giant black box.

How true is it? Because President Trump did talk about a lot of these data centers and making sure they were going to generate energy and pay for it themselves so that residents weren't getting getting the fees passed on to them. So how much of it is, are his policy is going to protect in terms of energy costs and things like that? Because that's one of the things he said. I want to say a couple weeks ago.

He did say that. He was saying. And then the other part of this is a lot of people just can't fight it. They're going to succumb to the money, right? So, I mean, it's a catch-22. People have free will. They could say no to this. But in terms of costs, I really do think that there's.

Well, they'll be bought out eventually. It's just a question of price. Yeah, no matter of how much. You know, but the, yeah, Trump was saying that one of the things he was recommending when data centers were being built, these big companies building their AI data centers was that they also build power plants. Yes. And he said that the zoning and the regulations would be fast-tracked and there'd be no issue to get the power plants approved.

So I think there was one in Georgia that maybe was also building a power plant. But certainly the stuff that's going, that's happening in Maryland. like they're not building power plants. I doubt this is going to be in Berkeley County. I doubt there would be a power plant built with that. And it's sort of a catch 22. I don't know if that's the right term for it. But Trump was also saying that he was going to prevent big corporate housing groups

from buying up all the housing. I saw that. But he's not going to be preventing big AI companies from buying up all the housing and just tearing it down. So, you know, let's say the, let's say Black Rock is prevented from buying up a whole bunch of property, but this AI data center is not prevented from buying up a whole bunch of property. We then still have the same problems with expensive housing. I think it needs to be consistent. I thought it was foreign companies as well.

I don't know, but I mean the AI companies aren't foreign companies like META's an American company. You know, and some of these. But if they, but if they, Trump is so on board with the AI centers that I don't think he would do anything to put a stop to them buying up that land or that house. housing. And the other thing I think is communities like probably Morrissey and others, when they look at these centers, they look at the initial jobs. And West Virginia had, I think, a 19% increase in population last year in 2025. Definitely, you know, the area could use more jobs. But these are all short-term jobs. You know, these construction jobs are short-term. We're going to go to your

rumble rants and super chat. So smash the like button. Share the show with everyone, you know. If you've got a friend or a family member that should be watching, tell them to watch. Shows also available on all podcast platforms. If you haven't checked out there, you can listen to it in your car or whatever is you're going. That uncensored portion of the show is coming up at 10 p.m. You don't want to miss it. But for now, let's see what you guys have to say. The Legendano says, too many people don't have kids, so they don't care what happens after they are gone.

There are too few who plant trees whose shade they will never sit under. That is unfortunately correct, and it's very scary. Phoenix 216 says I'm 30 years old and I'm a mold setter in an injection molding shop. I'm watching all the old processors and mechanics retire out with nobody in my age bracket or younger rising up to learn from them. Hope you guys know how to farm because you're going to have to do everything on your own. But you know what? Maybe it's a good thing. This collapse in scale will create a whole bunch of every man's.

Everyman's. Renaissance man. I was just watching the new Invincible season has come out. Yes, I've been watching it. And, you know, you just have to take the message of the Viltramites. It doesn't matter when hardship comes because it only make you stronger. What I thought was crazy is the rings around Viltram are actually just dead bodies. Yeah.

That's crazy. Yep. What a weird show. It's a great. I love that show. I have a lot of fun watching it with the child. Yeah. Let's see.

Dahi says the movie Blade Runner predicted what's happening now with Tech and China. Agree? I don't know. I guess. Awesome. I love Blade Runner. Our sergeant says, do you think this could possibly be a 4D chess mood move?

Oh, hey, look how bad America can affect the world economy, a possible wake-up call to tit-suckling elites. In what capacity? The elite are like trying to send a message to themselves. Yeah. Guys, I don't know. We need to stop depending on America so much. Let's declare what when I run.

I'm probably being intentionally up to, so I don't understand, though. Igor Tegor says Iran never said they have enough uranium to build nukes during negotiations, L.OL. That's a lie from Kushner and Ishkoff. And Iran started enriching to only 60% only after Trump left JCPOA in 2018. I don't know why I would believe Iran over Americans, even if I don't like the Americans. That's the challenge. It's like, if the Iran isn't come to me, be like, oh yeah, trust me, we're not doing it. I'll be like, bro, I don't know that I can trust that guy, but I'm certainly not listening to you.

Well, they never let our inspectors in, right? Like, that was the whole thing in Geneva. And they built hundreds of feet underground? Their underground warfare is insane. They're good at it, clearly. But come on. It's Iran. Indeed.

Let's see we got going on here with some of these super treats. Let's grab some messages from the people. Marucia says Trump basically walked onto the set of hoarders trying to fix 40 years of a mess in only two years. But people are blackpilling that didn't fix it all in two weeks and complaining that he's throwing stuff out. I mean, there are people that didn't want him to go to war. They voted for him thinking, I mean, this is why, like, the theory that Trump was part of the machine the whole time gets a little bit more credence. Like, he's going to war with Iran, you know, he's trying to get the petrol dollar back on track. He got a whole bunch of people who thought he would not go to war with

Iran in the Middle East to vote for him and then did. So maybe, I don't know, my attitude is kind of like, well, he's still done better on foreign policy than most presidents, actually all the presidents of my lifetime. And when people are like, but aren't you mad, he started a war with Iran? And I was like, bro, every single president of my lifetime has started wars. So I could only be so disappointed in it. I'm just like, well, you know, at least there's some other good stuff happening. Yeah, it's like, I mean, the alternative.

I mean, it's like a Biden-Kamala extension. Don't. They kept agitating. Don't. They kept like agitating Russia. Like, that probably would have escalated. It's like, you know, these things just happen. Wars.

No, I mean, yeah. It was a nice reminder. Don't forget. Don't trust the government. That's, you know? It was a good reminder of that. And like, I mean, to Tim's point, I mean, yes, better on foreign policy than all these previous administrations. On the domestic policies, miles better than any previous president.

Like, I'm, we're getting some massive victories in domestic. Especially on immigration. It's like, look. Immigration, gas prices? I mean, you said what? Gas was like a dollar, a two 90? and recently it's gone up to $4. But even the $290, remember when Joe Biden was in office?

Gas prices were up to $5 to $6 to some places. So I know he's going to be able to accomplish it again. We just have to end this war swiftly. So Tate just posted this, or sent it to me. A Kentucky family rejected $26 million to sell part of their farm fraud data center being offered about 10 times the going rate for farmland in the area. That's crazy. I love it.

Yeah. You know what I would say if they came to me and said, Tim, we'll give you $25 million for this property. I'd say, how dare you not offer me $50? Yeah. Like in 10 years, this company goes under and this family's just like, oh. Like guys, AI turned out. Really wasn't that great. Look at.

Where's Snapchat at? Yeah, they made those glasses and then disappeared. Does anybody use Snapchat? There was recently a teacher who was using Snapchat and she got in a lot of travel. I was going to hear about, like, she was supposed to. Exactly. It was a pedo thing. They offered a billion dollars by Facebook and they said no.

Yeah, that was. That was dumb. Because they were like, we're going to be the new Facebook. It's like, no, you're not. That's the world. That's the most pomp. Always sell out. This is what I've been saying.

Always sell out. As soon as you get an opportunity. What a terrible platform. Yeah, you got to pick the right time to sell out. You don't want to sell it too early. You got to play the market a little bit. Sell out to the highest bidder. Snapchat claims,

Snapchat claims 474 million daily active users. What? Still? Still? Internationally? What are your kids doing? Is it global? They've got, apparently they've got 25 million paying subscriptions.

That's crazy. It's only a co-workers. You ever notice coworkers use Snapchat? It's never, it's never your friends. When I worked retail, my coworkers were like loving Snapchat and their music tasters and the AGR and stuff. I didn't know they had paid plans. I didn't know Snapchat had paid plans.

They apparently did $5.9 billion last year in revenue for a 10% increase. So maybe they are not worried that they didn't sell out to Facebook. Maybe Snapchat should cut a deal with us so that, you know. Yeah. Exclusively on Snapchat for $100 million. We'll do a 10 second episode. Yeah, apparently the past, I love filters. I love me too.

Apparently, I've been doing well. I will say I logged on to travelers the other day just because I had not been on in a while. A lot of people were still active. It's like, wow. I don't know anybody. Do you guys know anybody? What's travelers? No.

Again, you just see it in sting operations. Yeah, petto teachers use it. And then they get arrested and lips of TikTok posts it. I don't even have the app on my phone. I wonder if I still have it. I had it for a while because I deleted it. It was being adopted by like a lot of TV channels like in 2018. I used to see like they would add the Snapchat thing next to their social medias.

But like I haven't seen it used since then. I deleted it the day I graduated high school. I was like, enough of this. I'm mature. I'm going to use Instagram now. I'm an adult now. All right. Let's see what we got here.

Marisha says, would you feel better about Iran if boots on the ground meant Israeli, Saudi, and Kurds with U.S. just giving air, sea, space, and cyber support? I actually think the TSA stuff.

I think Congress lies. And they go like, oh, no, we're having a political fight. We can't fund TSA. You know, oh, geez. I think what's actually happening is they're like, we need to divert all that much. money to the war effort.

Money is not infinite. And you can print and just produce money upon the creation of debt, but you still have a problem of inflation, if that's the case. So they have to control that number somehow. Otherwise, you'll get a stimulus, like with Obama, to try and pay off the debt that they've mass generated. So again, $200 billion to replenish our bombs. Any involvement.

I also wonder if the financial crisis, a component of that, was actually the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, over-exerting. Because you literally can't just have infinite money. It doesn't work that way. But who knows? Who am I? But a man on the internet complaining about things. Boba Fett says,

Hey Tim, I'm in the hospital with baby number three. Found out the gender on September 10th. So we had to name him Charlie. Congratulations. Hey, congrats. Awesome. Welcome to the world. That is a great name for a child.

Fantastic name. Spectacular. All right. Welcome. Welcome. A lot of work to do. Get posting as soon as you can type. Little one.

Literally. As soon as your fingers developed, just let it fly. whatever you're thinking. Wow, wow, wah, wah. It's good. What we got here? Hit Manzarelli.

I noticed a shift when Tucker got questioned about buying his house in Qatar and he got flustered and now seeing him want the United States to fall in the world stage after Biden ruined it. Again, it's people, wealthy elites transferring their wealth out of the United States expecting its collapse. Guys, I got to be honest, without people, is Tucker wrong? I mean, you could say his opinions are bad. But I mean, like, if it were true that Tucker was just transferring his wealth out of this country, to foreign countries and advocating for them knowing that in 10 years the country is going to

collapse without children? Do you blame him? He has repeatedly said that he would not leave the United States. Do you think he's lying? Well, I'm saying, if it is true, because they're saying you bought property in Qatar. Yeah. I need to do that but somewhere I can afford. I'm going to be like, guys, the Democratic Party of the Congo

is the future. And honestly, we're in a multibolar world. Like, I think they're emerging power going to. What's the, which country were they going to send to Brigitte Garcia to? It was like, Rwanda, Rwanda. Was it Uganda? No. Rwanda was the third country.

I thought it was like... Costa Rica for a while. No, no. It was Africa. It was Africa. It was Africa. Yeah. Liberia.

No. Yeah, it wasn't Liberia? That's now. We tried there. There was... Oh, before. Let me see. Was it...

Was it... The administration getting ready to deport. There's been like seven countries, but there was one in particular we tracked the GDP on in Africa. I think it was, I think it was Uganda. Or was it Burundi? I think it might have been Rwanda Rwanda is doing the best out of all those countries In 2000s not bad

It might have been Rwanda Rwanda was the country too I mean they have yeah Britain was going to send their people They're not people there They're not their people there And the GDP there I think was like 200 bucks Well Rwanda had this brutal civil war

I remember talking to a delegate From Rwanda at the UN Who was saying we just had a genocide We need people Yeah And diversity is your strength So like, I was wrong. I was wrong.

The per capita GDP of Uganda is $1,000. Oh, wow. So it's like 80 bucks per month. And honestly, like the way that the world's shifting, you think U.S., China, Russia, and then honestly, Uganda. I, I, I, guys, like, Kilmar should be happy to go to Uganda because he'd be like a king. Yeah. It would, like, imagine, imagine if, like, Tate, what if you got transported back in time to, like, medieval London? With your knowledge, you'd be a wizard.

I think you wouldn't be. No, they'd be like, how do you, well, how do you make a clock? I'd be like, um, uh, let me Google it. The Mets last World Series was 80. You know, but you know, if you could actually do, but if you could actually do anything medical, like if you knew like alcohol treats wounds, they'd be like, you're a witch, burn you. Yeah, true.

And I'm ginger. They would not do that. He's not a woman. Oh, well, they could still get mad at you. Nah, no, all he's got to do is like, it would be like a, it's really simple. Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court when he shows up with soap. No, he just shows up and says, I can cure your ailing son. I figured out that spirits and you pour it on the leg

and the infection goes away. You know what I mean? And I'd just be like a good king, like literally king of the world. Not beer, though. You'd have to like figure out just, you'd have to do disqualation. I honestly think the average American, I can do that. I shouldn't say the average American. Well, maybe the average American would really come to understand just how much they know

that would make them a wizard in like medieval times. Like you go back to 300 with your average understanding of things, your average American would end up being a wizard. It's like idiocacy almost, you know? How they're like, which shape goes in which hole and he doesn't? It's a perfect score and they're like, you're the smartest man in the planet. That is, that is insane. Yeah. Like, you know, like, babies are usually pretty impressed with my knowledge. I'm like, that triangle is not going in that square peg and they're like, he's right. Like, babies are always very impressed. Yeah. Bro, what was the, what was like the degree of math back then? Did they even understand that stuff about triangles? Well, like, Newton was on the most

basic stuff. He was like, oh, what apples fall down. It's like, thanks. I was sitting in a tree and realize that things fall. Because Einstein was on it like E equals MC. Who's thinking about that? No one was thinking on EMC squared. Like what? What does it mean? But here's the best part. Like you go back in time. This would be a great skit, by the way. And it's just like, I know a ton of basic science. And then you're like, I have Einstein's basic understanding. I know it. I could tell the people. and then you go to like some, you go before the king and be like,

this information will change everything you believe. And they're like, on with it. Energy equals mass times the velocity of light squared. And he goes, what is that? Okay, well, light travels at a constant and the sun, which we're orbiting off with his head! I throw you in the dungeon. Literally. I would be so cooked.

I'd be like... Imagine trying to explain relativity to someone in the year 1300. they would be like, what? Yeah. You'd be like, okay, well, the planets, but what? I mean, like, what would you do if you went back in time? Like, how would you earn your bread?

You wouldn't blend it. You would try to blend. I would try to blend it. I'd make gunpowder. The fact of the matter is, we don't look like people who would be in medieval times. Like, we are. Oh, we wouldn't still to speak any function of that. We couldn't.

You could just avoid that. Yeah, you got to go into the old English, like, you know, they didn't talk that way. It'd be so confusing. I'd be like, guys. Have you done that, have you looked at that thing where it's, have you seen that clip where it's like the guy does the old English from 100 years ago, 200 years ago, 500 years ago. Yeah, it's incomprehensible. And at a certain point, you're like, I got nothing. I can't talk to these people. I got nothing. Yeah, I'd be like, you guys need to speak clearly. Things I could do, yeah, yeah. I'd

I'd open like a street food stall. How fair are you heartfully? Cook in their homes, so they'd all go out for street food. Oh, yeah. You know, because of fire. You just cook stuff. I'd be like, great. The taco, the taco, the taco would be. The taco, It would be good. I could make pasta like nobody's business. It'd be like, what? It's a ravioli. Just eat it.

It's better than that pasty. They'd be like, pay piss. And that's the thing. Yeah. Exactly. Get out of it. What the hell? What?

If I seek a me to and herbeware is apparently how you say in English, I am looking for food and shelter. That's like sin's language. Hibberd obol. I pray, y'all. I pray, y'all. I seek Mita and Herberware for nought? No. No, no shot.

Wow. Maybe that's what Polarad is doing. Yaman need of Mata and Herbauer. She's just trying to speak old English. You would go back. They would just think you're crazy. Wow. Yeah, you'd be screwed.

It's amazing. You wouldn't be a wizard. Herberly. You'd be out of luck. You'd be homeless. Yeah. Herber Jane. Crazy.

What does that mean? That's amazing. And they'd also be like, you don't look right. Herber Jane. So we all mutts. So we all look like mutts. We all, like Americans look different. Yeah, we do.

You would not be able to communicate with any of these people. You'd be better off in Spain, probably. Why? I'd love it. With the Lisp? No, but Spain, you go there and if you weren't Muslim, because it was they had the reconcum. It was the Moors. It was a problem.

Like, guys, you got limited time. But I mean, like, general Latin words might get you further than old English. That's probably true, yeah. Yeah. I think you'd want to end up. Vice versa. Right, guys? True.

vice of first. I mean, yeah, I got to be honest, 1,300 Spanish is very similar to modern Spanish. Yeah, it's like basically the same thing. Ola? Kenio. Seniors.

Mila Suva. This noche. It's like the same thing. Bigusta you. Yeah. Hey, it's bad. New world that way. Beat the clock.

Comer was more common than comita. I knew it. They still said herber gage. Oh, we've been saying. What is that word? I've been saying that. Herber. Herberging.

How do you spell it? Phenetically. Herberging? I guess it's G-I-N-G because G-I says... Herberging. Silent J or is that a full one? Herberging. What is going on?

Anyway, it's a single by Berghild Maria Thomas Daughter. Oh, that's wrong about it. All right, what do we got here? It's an Icelandic term now. What is this a... Or shelter. I knew you knew it. Force name change says if U.S. lets Iranians fight Iran,

regime support starts with most pros. 700, 950,000 committed. IRGC is 160, 180K. Then he lets a bunch of people. Opposition gets around 204K, mainly from, okay, well, just some numbers, interesting numbers. Thank you for those numbers. You just send us a math problem. All right.

James Black says, Tim, all I will say is I pray, I pray first for my son to come home safe, a swift resolution and minimal loss of life. He is in the unsaid unit. Pray for our troops and our leaders. absolutely man yeah again like I'm gonna stress it basically there are people in the area that have started making movements where locals have been saying like

we're seeing a lot of people who live out of your gear for deployment so I'm not going to say which which units those are but I have a much I have a much different view of I mean of the military since it turns out my son is friends with kids in the ROTC

and I'm like you guys are 16 17 and they're very polite to you and they say yes ma'am Well, they all seem like really good kids. Well, I was at a bubbly place. But I'm a sucker. I think all teenage girls.

And they were just obnoxious and rude. And I was like, oh, my God. Yeah. Oh, my God. And they're really dumb, too. Teenage girls? Yeah, well, these ones, I don't know. I'm not saying all teenage girls, I guess, maybe.

Like, they ordered bubble tea and they would make it and put on the counter. And there's just like 17 teenage girls all standing there staring at the bubble tea confused, not knowing, like, to go take their drink. And I'm sitting there like, I am waiting for a drink for my family, and there's like a pile of bubble teas. And they're just like looking at it. And then one by one would walk up, look confused and like take it and look at it and be like, and then put it back down and walk off. I'm like, did you not know what you ordered? What is happening here?

And then when they called my drinks, I grabbed them. I was like, I'm getting out of here. Yeah. But they were like snooty too. I love bubble tea, though. Bubble tea is fantastic. It's nice. All right, everybody.
