Okay, well well welcome to the show today we are Wrapping up the first 100 days of the Trump administration so We have to grade him on a we have to give him a grade here a plus f-minus A plus with the gold star. Yeah, but before I do that They plus with the gold star yeah, but before I do that

Tom and I had a discussion last night, and I need to get this off my chest Dude, I'm becoming ancient alien-pilled I Walked away from that conversation a little worried about you, but the more I thought about it. I was like listen. That's as That's as rational as any other explanation yeah all right so so so you got to break it down because you could you could well kind of wander into uncomfortable territory where people will say like well I don't believe that these ancient peoples you know indigenous peoples could have built could have built these things but what's your angle then where Where are you coming from at?

Well. Because you might be right, brother. My, okay, first of all, my angle is, as I explained it last night, first of all, where would the concept of a god even come from? Let's say it is all made up. How would somebody even make up that concept anyways?

I mean, is it like we look at our lordship over animals in nature and think like oh There was someone higher over us or where their actual literal beings Who did come down? Okay, so let's set that aside for a second though Did you know that um In the story of about Jason and the Argonauts There you ever heard of the Talos? No, what's that? The Talos or the Talos was this large automaton that was built by the Greek god Hephaestus

and it would stalk around the island of Crete three times a day. And the Jason and the Argonauts with Medea managed to trick it and like take it down. And they like looked into it. And there's like a description in the Argonautica about the inside of this thing, that it has wires and stuff. And like, it's like, it's like it's running on electricity running on electricity pretty much I mean and that's just I mean it's a machine it's an actual machine I guess I guess the I guess what I'm saying is the concept of automatons and perhaps even artificial intelligence was at least oh it was known to the ancient Greeks so all right, right?

Isn't isn't there is isn't there some aren't there instances I think there's some ancient computer that they found and like it has like I don't know or Artifacts that have gears and oh, it's like in and are manufactured in a way that how would they have known how to build this stuff? Back then, you know, it's the antikythera device Yeah, I think that's what it is. Yeah, no one knows what it does or what it did it probably It was probably like a really sophisticated way to stroke your shit. You put your shit in there Top shit that dude at Mount Vesuvius had at his disposal They were like they were, way ahead of the time when it came to the Fleshlight Brother.

Totally. They were looking into the far, far future of how man would be able to pleasure himself. Man, people been thinking about innovative ways to stroke their ship for time immemorial. Probably the first thing we learned to do, you know? As a species we came out the primordial illusion stroking our shit the shooter as soon as

we sprouted some shit to stroke we were on it you know I was watching this uh this documentary from the 2000s called walking with a caveman yeah which is part of the walking with Dinosaurs series. And they go through the early hominids, up until modern homo sapiens, like a couple of 10,000 years ago. And you realize how much we used to fuck back then. And there was no shame about it.

And I think it partially had to do with the way that the women's bodies evolved, so that I think their reproductive organs were shifted to the front, you know? So for the first time, people could- Well, I'll say, I'll say, I'll say, I'll say, that shit used to be like a Porsche. The engine in the back, trunk in the front.

It was a hatchback, I guess. Or, I'll say, that's confusing. I mean, that's why animals- The Volkswagen. That's why most animals would- It's like a Volkswagen Beetle. Yeah, engines like 2000 Man We've been fucking since time of warrior brother

I think they didn't have shame until Christianity came along right like that was when they first That's when they first started cooking with shame around Sex around sex, I think. That was the first time somebody was like, man, I should really reconsider the stroke and my shit stuff. Yeah, that was literally it. It was like... And in fairness, I am doing it a lot.

So maybe... Maybe they're onto something here. But see, you know what, Terrence? I want to go back to the ancient aliens thing, because to introduce the idea of not only a god but that actually stroking your shit is bad you know like yeah sure you know came from people who wanted social control but like also feel like that idea is so anathema to being a human being you know it almost does seem alien. Shit what having shame around it?

Yeah no just having shame about beating your meat you know. There's this. Well there's here's good What I think I think what it started from is you got to understand Whatever the concept of owning ism was frowned upon they were trying to rebuild the tribe post Babylonian exile So of course stroking your shit onto the ground would have been Like you got every drop needs to be pointed toward rebuilding the tribe this is a question you know how like teenage boys use like socks were they using like papyrus or something like what were they respected yeah what

were they they didn't have Kleenex what was the tube sock of its day yeah like okay if I'm going over my boy's house in the third century BC, how am I going to masturbate in his bed? When everybody goes to sleep, you know what I mean? It's a stone bed. Which brings us to one of Sexton's maxims. Never wear athletic socks Unless you're doing actual athletics, you plan on jacking off in somebody else's bed. I have a question for you This is a this is a question I I know the boys from throwing fits also don't fuck with athletic socks but this is gonna sound really really dumb but what's the alternative? No socks? I'm not wearing no socks. Dress socks? There's a whole world of socks you don't even know about I'll open up. I'm gonna open up your eyes like what what's the

alternative Well, there's wool socks there's rag socks, okay Socks can't do it all right look can't do any of those It's wool I'm not wearing a wool sock in July not wearing a dress sock with shorts, but we Give me something correct. No you could wear no shows. I need something practical with it depends It depends on your choice of footwear and I need your entire fit. I need something practical with shorts. Okay? I thought I tried note. Have you I thought an athletic sock was the no-shows No, no, I think of athletic socks is like kind of like tube socks, you know I don't want I'll tell you something on the no-shows? Nah, nah, I think of athletic socks as like, kinda like tube socks, you know?

I'll tell you something on the no-shows, okay? If you're gonna wear no-shows, you better damn well make sure they're no-shows. Because if you wear a no-show that peeks out, that's the worst looking history. Or if you wear one, if you wear one where that rubber grip in the back that locks into your heel keeps sliding down

That shit is annoying as fuck you know okay, then you got bunched up sock in your sneakers Can't wear tube socks can't wear no shows what the fuck am I supposed to wear with a sneak? Let's say I'm just wearing some a6 Some sneakers the fuck kind of socks do I wear I think you're okay to wear athletic socks with athletic shoes. Right, right, right. Okay. I think that, I mean, that's what they make fun of. Presumably you're gonna be walking around in those shoes, you're performing some athletic thing.

Okay. That's fine, that has a purpose. What I'm saying is you don't want to be wearing some slick bottoms with some Nike dry fits, you know what I mean? Okay, well I don't wear Nike Draft Fits anyways. You don't want to wear your Ralph Lauren. Whatever, whatever your choice of sock is. No, I agree with Tom, the socks should match the footwear. You don't want to wear a pair of silk dress socks

with a pair of basketball shoes or something. Right, you're not wearing Marcolioni fucking silk boys with some Jordan 1 ones, you know No with some slides. No, that's there the 11th and you got tuxedo on with it I have like three boys the bed yet. I have red wing leather boots hiking boots and yes your requisite sneaker You're a very utilitarian man. Yo And I very utilitarian man yo I appreciate that. I mean I try not to get too out of it. Every shoe you own has a purpose though. Alright so like what's... Exactly all of those purpose. Okay so it's okay to wear an athletic sock then with the sneaker and shorts. With an athletic shoe yeah. With an athletic shoe alright so I'm good. I mean it a

dress sock with a dress shoe. I Mean Terrence if you want it if you want to like you know not have the socks like be so high I have to Roll them you could get like ankle socks. You know okay? Some ankle athletic socks. I mean how is Tom said there's a whole there's a whole world of socks brother Okay, well then back to the third century BC Okay, well then back to the third century BC. Okay, alright, so there we go, we figured that out. The question... That's for the socks they were wearing back then. The question remains, how do you jerk off in your friend's stone flint-stone bed without getting caught?

There's only one answer you get silkworms to really quickly Make you a sock while you're jerking off. You're like get to work boys to weave your Kleenex Lambskin condoms against all odds are still on the market. That's true. There's lambskin condoms It would be probably jerking off in the sheep guts sheep bladder, you know It would be tight if you could have them start weaving the silk tube when you start shrugging your shit and right as you finish is when they finish and And you just put your head out you don't even look

They just drop the silk cleat into your palm. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yo, that's some real Flintstone shit, man. Woop! Just falls right on your shit, right as you get on your bus. That's what I'm saying, ancient alien shit. How did we know to not just jerk off onto the ground like a bunch of savages? How did we know to? Bzzz. You know what I think about?

How did we know? I mean, I think about this fairly often. Like, obviously people had to be test subjects for different poisonous fruits and berries, you know? That would kill them. So imagine how long it took generations, you know what I mean? To like realize like, okay? Don't eat that shit mm-hmm If you're that guy, what do you go home tell your wife every day?

You come on. I don't know if I'm gonna be here tomorrow much less Your ears, I'm the berry taster for the king Every day you come home with hives swollen lips swollen tongue diarrhea diarrhea Everyday you come home with hives, swollen lips, swollen tongue. Diarrhea. Diarrhea. Yeah. Think your job's bad. Yeah, you gotta be a faithful ass wife, man. That's true, nah, I think somehow you're gonna make it out of this.

Okay. He eats every day. No. And a lot of people don't like it. Mm-hmm. I just think the, um... Okay, so like the ancient alien theory proposed... Wait, have you finished Battlestar Galactica? Did I just spoil it for you?

Nah, I definitely finished it, yeah. Alright, like the ancient alien theory proposed in Battlestar Galactica seems to me kind of... It's not outside the realm of possibility, is what I'm saying. That another species evolved exactly like us? Yeah, like they didn't come here to teach us anything, really. They came here fleeing some other shit, and maybe they had sex with the Earthlings. So you're a step away from thinking Nephilim are the real deal. I kinda am, yeah. For sure, dude.

How do some motherfuckers get to be 7'8"? You know what I mean? I'm just, yeah, exactly like, what's the Nephilim? Where does that come from? I'm just open-minded these days. I'm trying to I'm trying to create a syncretic religion of my own I'm trying to make my own religion so What what elements would you take from let's start with the three Abrahamic faiths? Okay? Pick something you'd take from each of those all right Christianity I take rosary beads yeah

and you have to wear the wall at the same time too uh-huh yeah and a kaffir and a burka and and yamaka and Rosary beads wait wait how far does this lead it to like appropriation cultural appropriation? Technically you can join all the Abrahamic fights, so it's really not appropriate. That's true We're in the new era Aaron you can appropriate all you want now Appropriation that's true. We're in the new era Aaron you can appropriate all you want now the early humans were appropriating alien culture when they

Decided to jerk off into lambskin condoms So they were like fuck the spaceship could jerk off in a lambskin condom yeah But like we were just talking about this last night like no one gets abducted anymore. You don't hear about that anymore. This is true. This is true. Is all the piss gone there? And I asked Terrence this last night, if we just heard everything now and nothing like surprises us anymore?

This is bad for us because imagination is kind of what man thrives on, you know what I mean? Yeah. And it seems like we're hitting a wall with Google with personality. Like that's where the end, that's where the farthest we can go. I think too, man, I think that the internet

and the fact that you're standing at the vantage point from which you could view all of like cultural history, you know, whether you go to YouTube or Wikipedia or something. I feel like that kind of knowledge, like that vast knowledge or that library has kind of taken the whimsy, you know, and the mystery and the unexplainable, you know,

because you can either debunk it or, you know. You're right, or just lean into it. Yeah, or lean into it. Yeah, exactly. I think I would take I was selling Tom last night we need to bring back son worship. I think like that was the truth like that was a Common thread for Millennia son worship. We don't do that I would also In the middle there's this new book just came out Called lower than the angels a history of sex and Christianity

by diarmid McCulloch, I hope I didn't Butcher his name, but in that book he talks about how Priests in the Middle Ages used to castrate themselves because they wanted to be more like the angels who they saw were sexless. And that's what I would bring into my new religion. But we would be sex positive. We would be no shame around sex, but you would also castrate yourself. Within reason. Within reason.

Within reason. Within reason. Yeah. We would do that. Also too, I think nobody worships animals anymore, you know. Oh, sacrifice. I think we need to do that. We don't do sacrifices anymore. Sacrifice?

We don't do sacrifices anymore. Nah, it's true. Yeah, we definitely don't do sacrifices. That's true. The lambs have all unionized against us, you know what I mean? So listen, we're not going to be sacrificial anymore anymore in nature Augury is something that we don't do like we need to I need to spill the entrails of a lamb and then like look at its intestines and Determine the future and divide the future is gonna rain next week

Well in fairness tea leaves necessitate that was the vegan alternative Tea leaves necessitate, that was the vegan alternative. Reading the tea leaves. That's true. We had to get away from that. They fought long and hard for that right brother. Yeah we chose a plant based sorcery. Could you imagine, could you picture me in a yarmulke and in a hijab. I can, I can. in a yarmulke and a job you know yarmulke and a hijab and rosary beads and

Some kind of crazy devilish horns and maybe like spiral around my eyes and holding a long crooked knife And I slut slit open at Ram's head And I look at its brains and I look up at the horizon and my eyes look fucking insane and I'm like wars coming Why so you're talking about becoming an oracle? Yeah You're describing a scene on Atlanta in London a street at night basically See exactly that guy you're talking about everybody meet my friend Pascal s wager and just

He said after he said out to create his own synthetic or syncretic religion What he did in the end was just hedged all his bets And scare a lot of people and scared by and scared all the holes in the process. I don't know. I think that it's time for a new Syncretic I mean you could just make anything up, man. I mean, like, the sell of early Christianity was like... Look, we just need one God, you know? Like, it's like... And that must have gone crazy at the time.

But people probably liked the simplicity. They were like, well, I guess I am tired of... I'm tired of Zeus Entering my home at night fucking my wife taking one of my children. You know what I mean like you It's like I'm tired of making all these sacrifices. I have no more money and no more food. I'm tired of hoping that has no chill Yeah, what's that? I said the Pantheon has no chill I said the Pantheon has no chill. Well, you know how like everything today is like they try to like sell you on like tiny homes or like trailer living or anything like that.

And what they're really saying to you is that you deserve less. Yeah. Like we kind of like just run with it and be like, no, I streamlined my life. That's kind of probably what the prevailing thought was in the Hellenic schools. They were probably like, look, when this stuff started first kicking up dust and then really gestated in the Middle East, they were probably like, look, it's three and one.

So we appeal to the polytheists, so we don't completely run them off. So you still got three but it's in the form of one and then everybody's like well yeah that makes all the sense in the world right right nobody can get mad you know and say that my God is greater than yours well no go ahead no no no you go ahead as you can say the Catholics though they like basically preserve the polytheism It's weird how over time there's been a trend towards trying to simplify religion like make it more and more

Sort of like streamlined and simple that has occurred at the same time. We've tried to like complicate Metaphysics and our understanding of the universe. It's like We just we just have to have some sort of like intricate complex system one way the other like why not just combine the two I wonder what the relationship is to labor though You know like in the time of the Greek pantheon you probably had a lot of time to worship many gods You know what I mean? Yeah, you probably you know Epicurious epicurious lived at this time. You know that lazy ass You know true like you probably had all the time in the world and then it's like the Industrial Revolution happens And we're all like you know

Getting away from just like maybe some light gardening That's true possibly some slavery if you were on the business end of that they also had though that like they also had like the Ellyocenean mysteries and like the Dionysian cults and stuff where they would spend like two weeks just stroking their shit Get high various natural substance. Yeah vapors and stuff like sulfuric vapors and stuff like so yeah There wasn't like this need to like make profits, right? It's like you're right the labor that goes into it was not as and then as they needed more time

From us in the factories in the fields they probably said we're probably gonna behoove us to just have one God they can pray to like when they wake up morning when they go to bed. That's true, man day God and night God and And that God has to be moral Because that's the funny thing that is to me the funniest aspect of the Greek system and like a lot of polytheistic systems And why I do kind of wonder if it was based in some sort of ancient alien like Interaction because it's like all those gods were like assholes like they would they would you know um Like you know what I mean? Like there was gods that would make your life hell.

But then there were the good ones. Yeah, they were ventral and I guess they also thought of humanity as sort of the way, you know, like we're ants, you know, we're powerless. Yeah, worms. Yeah, we're worms, we're bugs, you know. Yeah, the best of them were trickster gods. You know, you can't trust these motherfuckers as far as you can throw them. And even the noble ones were all the time trying to let you learn your own lessons.

No, I need a god that's just going to facilitate my upward mobility. True. And then... But see, when you got a god though like Prometheus, you know, all he tried to do was give fire to the people, and look what they did to his ass. They got his liver. Get his guts picked out by vultures. You know for a while brother in fairness That's what it gets for trusting mankind You still gotta be a god

Long day the trickster the trickster gods were the best because they would like play a flute and they run off with your children I guess I'm saying they were Yeah, the trickster guys were the early Turn your wife to like a toad Yeah, you'd just be walking through the woods and come up on motherfucker with a goat bottom half playing a liar And then he'd ask you to answer a riddles three, you know, yeah, that's when you know, you've You got to abort this encounter. Mm-hmm All right. Yeah, I think we should bring back worship of the tricks of God worshiping the Sun. I think is pretty low

It's like pretty low maintenance preach simple like Sun rises every day it sets every day like I Don't know. It's like that's pretty So it's a very useful God that provides a function my religion is you have to stare at it every day You have to stare at just about to say you don't just don't stare you castrate your eyes out Look you castrate yourself you stare at the Sun every day You get a bad sunburn you have to be out in it all the time, especially the white people. White people have to be out in it at all times.

They're gonna have to invent, like Johnson & Johnson's gonna have to invent some new super powerful sunscreen, you know, with the advent of worshiping the sun. Yeah. Uh-huh. I mean, if you, you know what would fuck it up though, Terrence, is that I think that, like, yeah,

you would have companies capitalizing on it Right we need Ray Bans meeting to make stronger Oakley's we need to make stronger better sunglasses Yeah, I'm thinking more like this is probably for a post capitalist world. We're thinking more like a post apocalyptic world like this this is a religion that could Make sense in the world where like you've got the warring raven kingdom and the turtle kingdom and the elephant kingdom. The cetacean kingdom. The cetacean kingdom.

Oh, okay. I get what you're going for. In a world where we're more atomized and we're like basically a large assemblage of prison gangs based on species, this is where the utility of your new religion is gonna come in right because the Ravens will have made that Evolutionary leap to being able to talk to each other and maybe make crude implements and tools Naked I'll be right there along with them. I'm feeding them berries daily just to establish a rapport

Yeah, you know where to find me I'm just thinking something like like that like it's we have to live in harmony with them so we want to get on their bad side like I'm not trying to get on the bad side of the echidna kingdom what's what are a kid a kidness kid a kidness is that like a it's in an animal right and a kidna isn't it like a a spiny anteater yeah it's like one of those like yeah it's one of those like porcupine looking things do there are way too many animals man not way too many but way too many learn about in such a short amount of time yeah why so a kid knows a porcupine there's in the

Porcupine family. It's in the porcupine family. Yeah, they have remained unchanged since prehistoric times finding ways to survive While other species became extinct. This is what I'm saying like they'll Outlast us and they'll make that evolutionary leap eventually through their thinking in complex abstract thought you know Are there other species that are playing chess not checkers like that and have remained largely unchanged from time immemorial? That's the third time I've said that this episode crocodiles Crogs okay, I like that shit where they bite you probably I like when crocodiles bite you and then they flip over to make you flip over It's classic they do a roll. They do a roll

You know and you know that shit hurts so bad Especially the knowledge that you're not coming out of this like two legs you survive at all Yeah, dude, that's gotta be so annoying when they bite you and flip roll over and make you real Like if one bites me I'm like bro. You better not hit that turn on my ass. It's bad enough You've already got me here And then he just gets a shitty grin on his face and hits me with the turn Like you bastard You said you wouldn't do it

And just the Crocs bro Bastard you said you wouldn't do it Just the Crocs bro Not as far as you throw Speaking of the Sun did y'all know that that like major out power outage in Spain in Portugal was because Unfortunately it was because of solar power. It was like they had too much Solar like they had too much solar power on the grid at one time. It basically shorted the system. They had too much sun. They had too much sun.

They had too much. So are people running with this as a reason not that we can't trust solar as a reliable? It's probably the worst thing to have happen in an era where we're just gonna drill baby drill. Yeah. Are there people like too much of a good thing as you know yeah, they're saying it's because they didn't have any alternative fuel sources on hand like coal or natural gas that can be like burned really quickly and

So yeah It's just we just we can't have Anything nice really that's the thing that's why the Ravens will win Oh, yeah. It's just, we just, we can't have anything nice, really. That's the thing. That's why the Ravens will win. It would be fun if there were like Spanish coal miners that are like hillbillies, you know, that they only call up ever so often when something like this happens.

And they even talk like that, you know? Yeah, they're like come on. How you say cucumber? Hilarious hilarious Baldwin is the Spanish coal miner Yeah, yeah, yeah, they just had the union. They just all sound like Brad Pitt and then glorious bastards when we speak in Italian. Yeah Got too much else soul How do you say black lung disease? Shit Okay, well, but also though the animals are also like, Tom, you pointed out the,

like, how, okay, so FDA is cutting food inspections under RFK, that's pretty tight. Not a good development. They're bringing dysentery back and other illnesses. Yeah, I think that it's, it makes sense in a world where you've got healthcare industry, right? Yeah, I think that it's illnesses. It makes sense in a world where You've got healthcare industry right and it's a notoriously inflationary industry and At the same time it's kind of it's a service industry okay, so it's hard to

Sell futures on healthcare. It's hard to invest in it in the same way that you would like manufacturing. But it makes sense if you're trying to juice those healthcare profits, if you want to make us all sick as fuck. Just give us all salmonella. Yeah, have everyone get salmonella. Rotovirus, I don't know what that is.

Is that like a rat transmitted virus? I don't know what that is. Is that like a rat transmitted virus? Roto virus. I think in that like a Stomach bug or is that norovirus? Or is that or yeah hantavirus is the rat transmitted? The rat one? Yeah, that's where you got to worry about your neck of the woods Don't be going to eat dusty old cabins and Terrence's neck of the woods and flipping any sheets up You'll bring in some rat feces and dive hantavirus. Yeah, they happen to Gene Hackman, huh? Oh Yeah, that is right. Oh shit. Yeah, dude, dude Yeah, I mean it makes sense right just make everybody sick as fuck

Because like the the thing undergirding the healthcare especially if you're gonna cut Medicaid, right? If you're gonna cut like federal sources of revenue to the healthcare industry just make everyone sick as fuck. I mean it actually does it does like fit in perfectly with the purpose of the healthcare industry because it's not really to heal people no all right so why don't you just like cut regulations? You're right food industry. It'll be like mollix vertical integration You're right vertically integrate the mollic economy and that way like just make ever instead of like well We're not gonna reform this motherfucker. We're not gonna actually try to make people healthy or anything We'll just make people sick as fuck

So it makes them further indebted through their health insurance plans Basically, we're gonna make a big human killing machine Where you feed people into whatever they come out of the conveyor belt like bloody guts and bone and shit Rocco's modern life shit a human feeding machine For profit as soon as they said in April 2020 We have to get our human capital stock back to work and as soon as they realized all the contradictions of that they were like I've got it. We're not gonna give them free health care of course not they're fucking worms. They don't they don't deserve that They're never gonna get that I've got it

We'll feed them into a machine And we can make money from that And then we can sell their remains to their family Nice box That is yeah, I watched that Go ahead Tom No, I said y'all ever watch that? Go ahead, Tom. No, I was like, y'all ever watch that movie, Repo, the genetic opera?

No, what's that? It's kinda like a repo man, what's that? Yeah, it's just like, it's kind of a B side to, I forget what movie it was, maybe it was like, I can't remember, whatever, but it's like, basically people get these organ transplants and they can't like pay the payments on it or whatever so they come and Repossess the transplanted organs or whatever like these like stormtrooper got licking guys, too

That's the type shit. We're gonna be on in the not-too-distant future. Yeah, you know I know you got a couple years of them kidneys, but Fairness pay up it does make sense that that is the entire Trump agenda it's just like it's kind of neoliberalism come full circle where you like the underlying philosophical implications and premises of neoliberalism are that yeah, there's no society therefore there's no individual there's no humanity and so therefore that means like once you've You know rung it all dry of surplus and there's nothing there's no more frontiers left. There's no more surplus to be realized

It's like I've got it. Let's just start exterminating everybody like we can make money from that Beautiful perfect that is there is an old saying in the south from the router to the tooter it means you use the whole pig That's kind of the approach They're taken with us like and we should have known what was up when they said the words like you just said human capital stock they view us as cattle They view us as cattle. It's gonna be like that Don Draper meme, you know, where he's like presenting an idea and the board's gonna be behind him, Omnicide.

Kill everyone and everything. Kill everyone and everything. Listen, the way I see it is this. Look, there's millions of us, there's like nine of them. Now granted they're armed to the hilt and they've got all the advantage and they have all the gold, but we still have the numbers. I mean they're gonna kill us all anyways. These people need to be shot down like dogs in the street. They're gonna kill us all anyway.

Yeah, they're going like, listen, seriously, they are. I mean, I think what we could look forward to is that it seems when they start to get a little too confident, you know, that they begin to lose their grip, you know, and slip up. Well, like, No, go ahead. Go, Terrence, go ahead. Well, like, uh, Oh, go ahead. Yo, Terrence, go ahead.

No, no, no, I was just gonna say like that. No, no, you go ahead. I was just gonna say, these motherfuckers might start walking around with no security, like that, that, that healthcare CEO, Brian Topsy, you know. Mm-hmm. I don't know why people- Maybe you could catch a lick.

Why do people hate that so much? Why do people hate it when we say, no go ahead? I thought I think it's Sweden and You know, that's polite. What's polite. What's wrong with that? People are like nice boys Shit, I fucking hate everything They'd understand is there's a little thing called lag and sometimes you just talk over your own not meaning to but like that's the thing That happens. It's yeah Or do you want to hear the three of us talk over your own not meaning to but like that's the thing that happens Yeah, or do you want to hear the three of us talk over each other? Look I'm here's what I'm saying. I'm not saying that to even form like, you know

Death squads and go out and sass named all the billionaires I'm just saying if you got a chance to bump Mark Andreessen from a top of a Ferris wheel Maybe do it Dude, you know he's just sitting on a wall. He's a Humpty Dumpty ass. Just like I got a Yeah, that's gotta use your pick. You just gotta use your pick you just top him over It's funny how much does he does have a Humpty Dumpty head dog Dude for knowledge you for white people if he started when you know how funny that would look if he started wearing a wig It would look really funny if you started wearing a wig like it would look crazy because it would be It was like fall down because his head's pointy. It would like fall down the sides

It would look like it would look like it would look like a hill or something like that Just a little bit of grass and vegetation Like foliage like right at the peak It would fall evenly down his face Is he even actually bald is that him dabbing on us is he like is he like Mark Pope is he stealing bald valor? Is there a hinge or something that you could open up? Dude it's like it's like I feel like you know if you were to look at his skeleton and look at his skull shape You wouldn't think that it was human or you would think it was some early hominid, you know? Ancient alien, dog. Like some distant ancestor.

Cammative man, yeah. When I played tennis, I used to play this guy named Barrett, and I'll never forget it. Barrett was a great tennis player. He may have been the strangest looking individual I've ever seen in my life. He looked like the missing link. He looked like an animal. I'm talking like, and I'm not, I don't mean like that in a Like I'm being bagging on his looks. It just he had a very distinct look you think he was Nethel him He kicked my ass left and right he was operating on different. Look it like for an arm. That's when the end of the hybrid maybe Impossible not gonna rule it out Maybe blank out his last name when I say that. Nice guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not even hit him, so I'm just strange. Did you guys see the, okay, so like it's 100 days, Trump's first 100 days are up

and like he did that interview with ABC. Did you guys see that, that him? Yeah. No, I just, I think the clip that everybody saw where, you know, he was like, well, this is what you voted for. Which, which, which, I mean, like, I mean, I got a hand into him, man. Like, I guess that's, I mean, I don't got a hand in to a man like I guess that's

I mean I don't think people voted to be immiserated but um I don't know white Trump said this is what people voted for yeah he said that's what they voted for yeah okay so he does plan to serve three more terms then not elected yeah the interview is with Terry Moran and it was very interesting like there was at one point where Terry Moran was trying to press Trump on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's tattoos. He was like, these have obviously been photoshopped. This is not, you know what I'm saying? Not even photoshopped.

You know Microsoft Paint. You know what I'm saying? Not even Photoshop, yo, Microsoft Paint, you know what I'm saying? Yes. Nah, yeah, that's dabbing on us. It's not even a convincing Photoshop. They straight up just Microsoft painted that shit on his knuckles. And he kept pressing Trump on it, and Trump was getting pissed. And he was like, you can't do that. You can't do that.

He's obviously in a gang. He's in a gang. I mean it's just it was an interest. It was a weird and bizarre interview because then there was also the point that you all mentioned a second ago where the interviewer Terry Moran was like yeah what do you say to people who are worried about like inflation and like prices going up from tariffs and all this economic volatility. And yeah, he was like, well, this is what you voted for. This is what you voted for.

Wait, is this the interview where he said maybe that the little girls will have $2 instead of $30? That was a different, I think, he did say that this week though as well, because there's all this economic uncertainty about Christmas, because now is the time of year when everybody puts in their Christmas orders for like toys and shit. And so much of our Christmas toys come from China.

And these hundred forty five percent tariffs have made these, like I read an article in the New York Times where they interviewed this one woman who Ordered like thirty thousand dollars worth of toys from China to resale here in America and had to pay $40,000 in tariff on Honey, sorry we can't we can't afford the Barbie this year daddy needs a new car instead Just in the tariffs Yeah, dude one so um But then I mean I I'm sure I saw this

this week, Adidas announced they're gonna be raising their prices. Everybody is passing the tariff raises onto the consumer. Nike, Nike and Jordan Brand? Oh man, yo, you fuck with me, man. The exact thing that they said wouldn't happen is happening. It's wild to watch them do degrowth. Like them talking about like, oh, instead of $30,

they're gonna have two dolls. And it's like, yeah, I mean, I guess less consumerism is good and like degrowth. Like these are things that I do agree with, but like their way of doing it is so not rational. Like this other, another person they interviewed in the New York Times about these tariffs was like you could have Done this over the course of 24 months like said like you look you have two years to relocate your manufacturing back to America

Right, but like instead they just dropped it like immediately. It's just like they there's it's proving that there's a right way to do It's just like they there's it's proving that there's a right way to do Quote unquote degrowth or reshoring or whatever any wrong way to do it and when you're motivated purely by racism Obviously, you're just going to go straight for like the racist grievance triggering option What's the point of a trade war? Okay, let's just let's just zoom out for a second and assume that we're just isolationist in America first and blah blah blah blah We hate everybody. That's not whatever we're xenophobes whatever What the fuck is the point of a trade war if it's not going to yield any dividends for your population? Is it just a pissing contest you want to be in with China because you're bored?

Like seriously, you know like if if if everybody's just gonna be pissed at you and the price of everything is gonna go up Like what is the fucking point of it? Anyway? Yeah, I think it's animated definitely by like his own Obviously personal rate like xenophobia and xenophobia, but I think it's like him just kind of waving around his dick You know, yeah, I'm a tussle with G You know what I mean? Because like he's he again is the guy who supposedly, is proficient in the art of the deal. And I guess sometimes he just gotta hit shit

with a hammer, you know what I mean? And impoverish everybody and make Barbie doll $600 or some shit. For a man known for deals, he's sure not great at that. I read this article in Financial Times about like the G20 conference that they held just last week And it was really funny like the amount of world leaders they interviewed Who were like I just got out of a meeting with Scott Besson

And he said the exact opposite of what Peter Navarro was saying and Peter Navarro was saying the exact opposite of what like Howard Letnick was saying and like all of these people you can Tell they're just like I mean it's it's like suddenly game of telephone Yeah, right. It's like they're united in nothing else, but their hatred of the left and of liberalism and of Non white people and all this right? And so when that's the case, you really will start to delude yourself like Hitler did. When you're operating on some master race mentality, you really will start to delude yourself like,

oh, I can invade the Soviet Union. Oh, we will win. We are the master race, obviously. Of course, we have to. We're the master race. It's just like, it's never worked out that not that these people were logical in the first place But it's like logic has been completely replaced by like just this like like this rabid Racist madness, you know that just consumes their brain so that any decision that they make would obviously have to work out in their favor

Because we're America. We're the master race. Exactly, we're the best. Exactly. We're the best. It's like we can't possibly, God will possibly not allow us to lose. They really haven't really been paying attention lately, have they? Great job, Kelly. Thank you very much. Elon, I love the double hat button.

It's the only one that can do that. Well, Mr. President, they say I wear the double hat button. Is he all I want to do that? I want to get away with it. Well, Mr. President, now they say I wear a lot of hats. That's true. Even my hat has a hat. I mean, maybe that's a good way to talk about the first hundred days.

I wrote down a short list before we started recording, just of all the things I could think of that they did in the first hundred days So they Like obviously there's doge right department of governmental efficiency and Elon There was a clip going around this week of Elon in some meeting wearing a dumb fucking hat being like well my hat has a hat

Like did you see that clip of him. Oh Everybody hate There's nobody that likes him A lot of his sicker fans. I think you're turning on it There's like the doge thing which they've obviously like you know Cut made massive cuts to the government To Social Security they're talking about it for Medicaid and Medicare. They've cut USAID right like they

made X Twitter the only place where you can now get updates on what's happening to your Social Security Did you say this story floating around that one of the Doge kids going around like to places and firing people was actually leveraged in all these companies that like actually stand to benefit from the cuts he was actually directly over? Amazing. I did not see that, no. Yeah, it's like a ProPublica piece.

Maybe we can look at it, but, uh, sometime. But yeah, I was like, Jesus Christ. Is this all this is this all this all the shit is just window dressing just for classic fucking grift I Think it's like it's a it depends on who you're talking about and who you're asking, but I think it's both Tom It's like I just genuinely think that in Trump's mind He is a world historic figure who's like making his legacy by, in his mind, I'm not saying that he actually cares about

working people or the common man. I just think that in his mind, he is going to single-handedly undo the post-war economic system and remake the social fabric of America and In his mind like a great king Not only enriches himself but like Enriches the common man in the process like that's I think that that's the kind of mentality

He's operating on and it is a kind of like it's inflected with that master race shit We've talked it is kind of like a crusade, you know Yeah, this is crusade to fortify the country against the left the the communists, you know I hundred against the Marxists against the godless, you know 100% Yeah, no, I mean there's doge like there's HUD. There's them taking apart HUD and USAID and There was his executive orders about cutting off Funding for states that provided health care to trans people There was dismantling the Department of Education the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve remember

that one there was them getting rid of DEI Gulf of America the law executive order that they're oh god no I was gonna add executive order executive order that there are only two genders executive order that there's only two genders Yeah, please feel free to throw in anything that I've missed in all this because like I said I just started jotting this town for recorded There was a thing where they like got the law firms to do like billion dollars Pro bono for like combating anti-semitism Going after Columbia's funding I are Harvard's IRS status Actually disappearing people actually disappearing people like yes immigration like I posted this story

To my Twitter yesterday that I saw in the New York Times about They there's this man and his wife they deported the man to El Salvador, they've deported the wife to Venezuela, and their two-year-old daughter is just gone. Like no one knows what happened to her, she just got disappeared into the foster care system. I guess like the Office of Refugee Resettlement had her for a while, but like the quote from Kristi Noem in that article was just disgusting man Like as people were pointing out on Twitter like it's just human trafficking. This is just child

They're doing human trafficking Which is basically You remember when like Ron DeSantis flew a bunch of immigrants from Florida to like Martha's Vineyard like they do I feel like they do human trafficking all the time. It's like political stunts and stuff once again after the accusation is a confession, and it's just like They are like they do more human trafficking than like your your Epstein Network on an average Wednesday When you don't see when you don't see these people, including their children, as people, right? It makes it a lot easier to completely ignore their bodily autonomy or their wishes and

just fucking separate families and kidnap children. Yeah. It's fucking disgusting. It's weird. Like the Obama or the Biden administration deported way more people than the Trump has at this point in the administration, but they also had way more people than the Trump has at this point in the administration But they also had way more people trying to get into the country I

Don't know if that's an economic thing I don't know if it's like people see a democratic president and they want to come to America and then they get Deported, you know, it's strange. I don't really know the inner inner workings of any of that stuff It's strange. I don't really know the inner inner workings of any of that stuff But yeah, there's the immigration stuff Mahmoud Khalil disappearing people for free speech There was a Columbia student who Was released yesterday. Yeah. Yeah my dad Mosin Madhavi. Yeah. Yes. That's the one Mosin, yeah, and

So there's that. And we can file that under immigration. But then there's the tariffs, which we've been talking about. The RFK, Make America Healthy Again, which we've established. By killing America. Yeah, which we've established in the classic every accusation is a confession thing. It's like They're just trying to vertically integrate the Malik machine Go go I got a question so ever like, you know, but the groipers and everybody are like really into this idea of a 70 million

Population America. It's like one of their memes they share around. They share like AI generated images from the mid century of people like carrying surfboards and everybody, like housewives and beads and polka dot dresses like cooking dinner for their husbands and all this stuff. And then it'll just pan to like a 70 million America. We know how tied in JD Vance is to all that. I mean, it's not outside the realm of possibility that So wait especially you think if they want to do

Sorry, just so I can Get this straight The the premise is they want to deport 280 million people They want to get America's population to 70 million. Wait, wait, wait. Because apparently, they want higher birth rates, but they want only 70 million people in America. Correct. So do they think that these 280 million people

are illegal immigrants? And like, you know what I mean, undesirables? They think that America was best at 70 million which I don't like they saw these images from mid-century I think I would surmise that in the 50s we had far more than 70 million people in the United States you know I mean dude that's fucking crazy you're right and JD Vance is like in these group chats with these fucking assholes

So that's one of their rallying cries, and they're like pushing for that. I was thinking about this. I said y'all think it's okay a central tenet of The biblical end times and I hate to tie everything back to this because I know everybody thinks that this is just I'm a one-trick pony And you know you're not Not not correct. But the whole thing is like in the twinkling of an eye millions will be taken away and whatever you know in the rapture. You know like you know like definitely we find it strange we just don't talk about the just millions of people that disappeared during kovat and by disappeared

I mean fucking died. Yeah Like if we even reckoned with that that like a huge chunk of the world's population just died gone over six million people Yeah, and just you know, that's not insignificant, you know And you have to you have to think too that it has to have like leave some I mean it has left some deep scarring effects, you know on the way that people are looked at I think Part of what we're talking about is just like just kill them all, you know, yeah, you know and we can profit off of it. Yeah Yeah, it's just crazy to think about that like That's the type of shit has happened and we just have just like kind of soldiered on through it like we all have a big adjustment

disorder and like we just won't acknowledge it because we got to keep the engines running but like this is a bad deal we're in really bad deal I don't know you just walk around man you just see people defeated and then the people that aren't defeated you wonder like how the hell are you not defeated? Yeah Yeah, that is extremely disturbing I'd never actually heard that before I'm kind of speedy with 70 million I Want an America was 70 million population is their goal and it's like and it's like I just 70 million population is their goal and it's like and it's like I just

How can you look at like what other fucking justification could you have for scaling back on like just simple fucking? food safety shit Yeah, do you know what I'm saying? It's it's it's a kind of like It's a short term Because like something that like I think everybody's been scratching their head over is, why would the United States do a self-inflicted wound like this? It's so obviously not in its interests. And I think that if you look at it more from the perspective of, how much surplus can can it ring out

in a short amount of time? If you're looking at it more sort of from like, from an in-game perspective, then it would make sense that they would want to start deporting and exterminating that many people. Especially if, as we've pointed out, I think that the political spectrum across the board has a massive crisis of legitimation, and like they don't know really what to do.

Like they don't really have a future for themselves. Did you guys see that thing where Greg Abbott had threatened to basically like defund the city of San Marcos for trying to? Stop their money going to Israel Yeah, I did see that actually Yeah, he said something like he did that big press for is like Israel's interests or Texas's interests Yeah, I think it's like we've pointed this out many times, but like the American political. I mean just to put it blatantly There's been a lot of question over like does Israel run America like are they calling the shots or does America run Israel? And it's like

It's the wrong way to ask the question the the the correct way to look at it is that the American political establishment looks at Israel and they're like, oh we want some of that, like let's copy and paste that here. And so and that allows you to do all kinds of things like separate kids from their families, deport them. Use weird race science. Kill who you want with, yeah. Yeah, use weird race science to like make people far more unhealthy, but if it serves like short-term profit interests,

then that's fine. You know what I'm saying? It's like use the tech industry to, go ahead. You know what it always is, man? It's always gonna be true that like, at least as we've been seeing, and probably for the foreseeable future, that our admiration and support for Israel trumps any American civil liberties or rights, you know? Yeah.

Like when it's a question of like supporting Israel, right, and wanting to be Israel, your supposed American rights are just completely completely nullified, right? Yeah I saw this, like Sam Cedar went on the Ethan Klein show. That guy is so fucking dumb. And he made a good point, I mean I've heard people say this before, but it's true, there are more non-Jewish Zionists in the world than there are Jewish Zionists. So it's just like a, it's just a very convenient thing that you have so many Christian Zionists in America and suddenly the political avenues open up for them to realize what they want, right? It's like, oh, we want an apartheid-like

system like they have there. At a certain point when the worst people you know gravitate towards something that should tell you all you need to know about Okay, it might the grapple Zionism has nothing that is not the fact that we even have to defend it is as not being anti-semitic is fucking telling but The grab has nothing to do with Judy isn't nothing to do with the legacy of Holocaust survivors none of that stuff It has the fact to do with like actual demons are really into it. It's a political movement as you pointed out Tom it's not a religious movement it's a political movement. Yeah. Speaking of which did you guys see that um that an anti-Semitism Act bill I

think that was um is going to be voted on that the evangelicals wanted in like some sort of clause that for under religious under the guise of religious freedom that That Christians should basically still have the right to use the anti-semitic canard that the Jews killed Jesus which is like which is like just crazy to me because it's like, so like who did not see this coming? The people that think that the state of Israel, its existence will facilitate biblical scripture.

You know what I mean? That's the only reason why they give a shit about Israel, right? That is a strange one, because I've never, like I've always heard people say like the Jews killed Jesus or whatever I've never like really engaged with that I just was like well the Romans at the people there at the time like wanted him crucified

I've never made that a broader indictment of that. I don't know where that really comes from This is a I mean I suspect I know actually where it comes from but yeah middle-aged Yeah, it comes from like the Middle Ages and like Martin Luther was a big fan of that Like Martin Luther was a huge anti-semite Just tell by looking at his big ass This is a good example though and how like all right-wing politics are inherently anti-solidaristic like they are On a long enough time like you're seeing this with the Canadian elections It's like the Canadian the right in Canada can't run on like

You know Trump is great now because Trump isolated Canada so that makes that the nationalism question complicated there like all nationalists politics on a global scale are on a long enough timeline anti solidaristic because they basically In you know Obligate all the nationalisms to eventually go to war with each other and so I guess it's it's like left-wing Internationalism is the only option if you're trying to save you know build an equitable and like sustainable society that's not going to blow its brains out they're all going to end up just eating each other

exactly they have to like literally the logic for a time they can appear to be united and as like a you know one front but I it also, you can just tell that like the historical phases come full circle, that like, if America is trying to copy Israel, Israel is nothing but basically just a copy of early America, you know what I mean? It's kind of like these concentric circles where it's just like, it makes sense now

that we're in our own end game, the final chapter. It's like, oh, we're just trying to speed run our early, our childhood in a way that like a dying ailing man on his deathbed It's like you know his childhood flashes Like that's it's like we were bored we were bored in violence and you know and hate you know we have to go out that way Exactly dude, I wanted to read so I don't know anything before like Anything to say about the Trump administration's a hundred days like I mean I basically I also left out Zelensky Putin Ukraine Gaza Israel like we've covered all that like there is one thing

I thought was interesting you know he came in under the guise of like cutting government waste and in his first hundred days They've spent over 220 billion, which is more than the government spent last year I mean, so he's not even saving any Yeah, they're not yeah That's I saw that like on his fourth day in the White House Like the stock market was doing really well, and he was like this is Trump's Wall Street Trump's stock market is back And then two days ago. They were like this is when the Wall Street the stock market was doing terrible They were like this is Biden's stock market

Apparently they wiped out more value in the stock market in the first 100 days than any president since I think like Gerald Ford or something It's a thousand one dude I listen I don't ask for much from our billionaire class You know and I don't expect much from them obviously But could y'all just do this one solid problem is where you put us in just mark this motherfucker Seriously or like him we don't like him Yeah, I saw like Ray Dalio had like a long post on Twitter a few days ago I was just like trying to be sober and rational about like the coming cataclysm It's like watching the billionaires themselves try to like make sense of it and like try to keep calm is very fascinating

It's like you guys you don't understand like the road You took led you to this like everything you signed on for it for the last 40 or 50 years like you got everything you wanted It's like it's like Trump saying you voted for this, well, this is what you bought essentially. I guess that's, yeah, you're right. This is what your influence has gotten you. That's the only silver lining here. Is like, we don't get to be buried into the sarcophagus,

the tomb with them, they will be buried in the tomb with us. It's like, oh, you're gonna go out, you're gonna walk into the light with the hoy-poi Doesn't that make you squirm a little bit doesn't that mean it sucks for you, huh? Like you're gonna have to walk into the light with like regular assholes like us Oh wait, okay, so like I this is it I'm not gonna spend too much time talking about this But I read the sleepiest article I've ever read in my life today in the New York Times

This is called The fight against Trump isn't a movement, but it's gaining momentum despite lacking a unified message or strategy, Democrats, universities, law firms, and other institutions are starting to push back harder against the administration. After the first hundred days. Did like, I can't wait. This is serious. Okay.

I like, did you see your, somebody asked Chuck Schumer what he was doing to fight Trump and he says, we're doing a lot. Actually actually we just sent him a very nasty letter just the other day Like it is beyond paired yeah a Very tersely worded letter just the other day Even his curse words Okay, just over a hundred days into his second term seeds of dissent to mr. Trump's agenda governing style and expansion of executive power have grown in fits and starts the opposition is sturdier than it once appeared though

demonstrations have a your and the fact that you are the dog the symbolism of Demonstration The symbolism of the Democratic Party being big embodied in the donkey, I don't know if it's very fitting that Demonstrations have increased in size and frequency town halls have become unruly pushing many Republican lawmakers to avoid facing voters altogether. A national movement has not yet flowered. The opposition lacks a leader, a central message, or shared goals beyond a rejection of Mr. Trump. Even as some Democrats become more aggressive, their deeply unpopular party is struggling to articulate

a unified line of attack, or much of a strategy strategy at all apart from hoping the president's approval ratings Hope things work out in my favor, but I'm not shit about it Still many of mr. Trump's opponents worry that what is happening is not nearly enough to stop what they fear is to slide toward authoritarianism. Um... Uh, let's see. Combat... Now we go to combat in the courts. Mr. Trump is still barreling ahead. He has reshaped foreign and domestic policy,

threatened open defiance of the courts, ripped apart to federal government, and retaliated against perceived enemies. White House aides dismiss the opposition against him is coming from Democrats and superficial paid detractors. They are losing everywhere and they will never match the organic enthusiasm behind his movement, said a White House spokeswoman, Anna Kelly. Well, Democrats really argue with that.

You know, yeah, I mean, she's the worst. The law. I love it's like a race to the bottom, man. You know I love it's like a race to the bottom man. It's like Trump's approval rating is now like 35% or something like that and The Chuck Schumer strategy really is literally like let's just wait until the approval ratings like 20% And I guess we'll do I mean I mean, I think when your approval rate is lower than people being polled about whether or not they would eat crushed glass. I think at that point,

I think if crushed glass is eating you guys, like it's beating you out, I think like you should probably reconsider your priorities and maybe walk into the sea, all of you. It's just this like paralysis that everyone feels that both parties are extremely unpopular. Everybody hates what's going on. Everybody hates the tariffs.

Granted, I think there could be a world in which you introduce tariffs and you do try to do reshoring and you do try to do these things and you do it rationally and humanely and patiently and try to explain to the American, make a pitch. But like, no one likes anything that's going on. The vast majority of Americans don't like this. The vast majority of Americans don't like Israel. They don't like either parties. It's like, oh, nothing on the table they like.

But no one can do anything. We're completely paralyzed. They don't like people, Americans don't like uncertainty and they don't like war. No. Like those two things, and he's in violation of those two things right now. Exactly. Yeah, you're right.

Like I woke up today, Pete Hexetz was saying like, we're definitely gonna be hitting Iran soon. It's just like, well, I mean, that's not gonna go well, but you know. We have an actual drunk calling the shots at the Pentagon, boys. This is like the drunk dude sitting on his porch with a shotgun in his lap, you know? Like just daring for anybody to fuck with, you know what I mean? So he could pull one off and

forgot he even did it, you know what I mean? So he could pull one off and forgot he even did it, you know what I mean? So bad. Anna Kelly, White House spokeswoman. President Trump is quickly delivering on his campaign promises with over 140 executive orders to date. Those orders are being met with a historic flood of lawsuits, more than 350 in all.

As of this week, at least 123 court rulings have paused some of the administration's moves You're seeing the courts really hold as a front line in the rule of law said sky Perry man the chief executive of democracy Ford Judges get kidnapped Until then they're doing a great job. That was one thing we didn't talk about. There was a judge in Minnesota that got arrested and there was a judge in New Mexico that got arrested.

The one in New Mexico was really wild. First of all, him and his wife were both arrested by ICE. First of all, I don't know how his wife would be included in this They were they said that these this judge and his wife were harboring Venezuelan MS 13 members on their property because they let them live in a house on their property But like I live in the basement of some shit like that. Oh Well, and why would why why would ice have jurisdiction to or arrest a judge?

Because I guess the judge is interfering with their duties But then that should horrify you that was you know what I mean that same agency can arrest you know I mean that was the the charge itself wasn't the one the one that they lobbied at the But the one that they'd lobbed at the Minnesota judge was that she was barring Arrested because she made the Defendant go out a side door of a court or something and ice like shit its pants and was like how fucking dare you The one in New Mexico though the charge was that he had just harbored criminals Criminal immigrants and there was no evidence that they were literal

gang members at all. They were just guys he let live on his property. I don't know, man. Anyways, very concerning. Beyond the courts, Mr. Trump's opponents have limited options. Republicans control Congress and have abandoned their role as a check on Mr. Trump. Democrats have full power over just 15 states versus 23 for Republicans. Unlike Mr. Trump's first term, he is now using his official powers to reach deep into American life and culture, targeting universities, law firms, nonprofits, and broadcast networks.

But sectors that fear being targeted have begun pursuing a more collective approach Nonprofit groups and charitable foundations have formed organizations. Oh my god, dude organizations to share the best practices for legal defense more than 500 400 higher education leaders have signed a letter condemning political interference in universities Like it's like you hear about all these different groups and you're like, okay, what are they gonna do? Okay, they're forming organizations Is it to resist in what way they sign organizations It's I don't have to go on you get the gist, but this is like it's just like

There's nothing here. You know it's just like Well, they're losing with valor you can say they're losing with valor You can say they're losing with Valor I'm not trying to like shit on anybody on their preferred method of resisting the creeping Fash, but this is not gonna cut it forming an organization and signing some letters. I mean They're kidnapping motherfuckers off the street, bro. Yeah I've got listen. I've got a clipboard and a petition and they'd sign for that. Okay, I Yeah, it's just like I said, it's just this kind of like widespread

Paralysis that is just kind of lending itself to a very surreal especially now when we know that Like I read interviews with like the port authority in LA and Seattle and like they're expecting their ports to be empty in 30 days like dude we are about to get hit by like probably like who knows what the fucking supermarket shelves are gonna look like we know for a fact that the goods and commodities and shit that we love so much aren't gonna be there in thirties. It's like a very surreal thing. It's like it's like rationing. I don't know man. It's like it is a very like late Soviets. You know what they're gonna say? You know what they're gonna say bro? It's like anytime you day, you know, it's empty shelves or any problem that

They you know, it's empty shelves or any problem that caps capitalism right has created They always like compared to like, you know socialism, you know So because of Trump's tariffs when the shelves are empty that's gonna be like this is what we get for socialism They're gonna blame China, you know, yeah China doing this to us, you know, yeah I would try to do this to us or her close ally of many years. I just don't think that it's gonna like Work though. I don't know. I mean I could be wrong maybe I'm really underestimating America's capacity for racism. Trust me I'm very well aware of America's capacity for racism. I just don't know like numerically if the numbers are there. Like we're recording this on May Day man like There are more workers There are more poor people there are more like people being pushed out of

any kind of equitable social contract whether economic political or otherwise I Mean they talk about 70 million America. That's a pretty small amount that means there's 280 other million Americans We can round these motherfuckers up. I mean I'm just saying like just numerically is what I'm saying It'd be like it'd be like a hundred men versus you know one uh one emaciated class of people you know Yeah, it's it's yeah, it's a hundred men versus a grill Yeah Yeah, it's it's yeah, it's a hundred men versus a grill Yes I'm just saying like the numbers Wait way to make it look like way to really spell out how small your movement is

70 million Americans, and we know it's not like that's just the people that voted for Trump like 70 million I would I would be willing to bet at least 20 or 30 million of those voters are now just like fuck I should have done that that was stupid. Yeah, I was dumb I'm just like that he went to the UFC fights. So let's just say this let's just say like who who is their die-hard Cadre of the Trump movement probably like 10 million 20 million Does that sound accurate? 15 million maybe? 15, 10, anywhere between 10 and 20.

That sounds kind of like accurate. Like that's a lot of people, but it's a drop in the bucket. Like compared to, I'm just saying. And then so, without getting too explicit here, I just want you to keep in mind like the numbers that we have and I know that that's a very fractious we full filled with all kinds of different contradictions and whatever but Then I want you to just realize that forming organizations and starting

Signing letters just won't get the job done, so Keep all that in mind I mean I also just Think I think when they're just you know abducting people you know I mean and tearing apart families and um You know this is this seems to just be like him Just going for broke You know as compared to maybe the first round and not to say that not to say that it wasn't Hectic his first and his first term, but it just seems now that that's part of the point the chaos

You know and that is just rashing it up. So I mean, yeah, man Well, while other people decide to form their organizations their little book clubs, you know I've long advocated for a sort of vandalism-based every man gorilla-ism. Okay. Okay. Did you guys see that, I don't know if y'all saw it,

but I think Will Menagerie posted it. It's this new trend, like, what is it? Like viral thing where kids are running. The Kool-Aid Man Challenge. The Kool-Aid Man Challenge, which I like, uh, what is it? Like viral thing where kids are running through fences. The Kool-Aid Man Challenge. The Kool-Aid Man Challenge. Which I have to say, I just hope they say, Oh yeah, when they run through fences. Wait, what are they doing now?

They're running through fences. Like wooden fences? Yeah. Like the Kool-Aid Man? At full speed, brother. Yeah, dude. This is gonna be our generation's lead paint, you know Kids gonna get CTE from fucking tick-tock challenges

Yeah, that's true see a lot of dislocated shoulders of the future Do they do they say oh yeah when they break through I was hilarious if they do I hope so I hope they leave I hope they leave the outline it'd been the deal But if it was the outline of their body going through the fence instead of knocking down the whole fence. I mean, dude, that's only in the cartoons where that happens. We used to just do like, um, ring and run. Or like, flaming bag of shit on a porch. Yeah, for real. Yeah, we would do that shit too.
