This week, Dr. Phil gets a Junior Deputy ICE badge, MS-13 signs up for AP calc, the CIA gets it Black History Month pizza party canceled, and the Q Shaman announces plans for a Supermarket Sweep at the gun store. A real stupid era for America ramps up.Support the show

all right welcome back everybody happy skews day to you it is as you're watching this is january 28th 2025 we're recording this yesterday in the past monday january 27th at 2 30 p.m. on the left coast again it's important we tell you that because if crazy shit happens between now and then you'll know why we don't talk about it but thank you guys for still tuning in it is still skews i'm still trying that's still mark how you hanging in there mark one week in uh yeah uh yeah do you uh do you follow the uh stupid diplomatic row with columbia yesterday what i'm calling the cuban muscle crisis of moccolates yes a little i mean a little bit i know that if i saw like conflicting reports i saw some people saying

you know that like columbia bowed before the pressure and i saw another thing that Columbia is enforcing their own tariffs and we're firing back. And then this morning I got a very helpful email from the Epoch Times. I don't know how the hell I'm on their mailing list. But I got one and they definitively stated obviously that Trump had won and Columbia had kissed the ring and it was fine. It's not quite the, yeah. I figure it not, but I don't really know what the truth is.

So please enlighten me. Yeah, Fox News is going on their whole, this is the art of the deal. What a skillful negotiator stuff? and the White House press score is doing. The White House says that Columbia capitulated or whatever. Let's walk through the sequence of events here because I think it's more important how it looks to Latin America and the rest of the world because they don't have to pretend that the White House isn't a silly place.

So Trump was golfing and popped off a true social yesterday announcing 25% tariffs on Columbia where he spelled Columbia wrong. So then the government gets to work trying to figure out how to do whatever he just kind of told him to do through an unofficial order. And it's about repatriation flights. Yes. Colombia, like a ton of countries, have been routinely accepting repatriation flights from ice planes. And it's not like Joe Biden wasn't deporting people either.

There's nothing like what what Columbia's objection to was Trump administration started sending them on military flights in shackles. Okay. Like the points of attention from Colombia were twofold. Trump was deporting non-Columbian nationals to Colombia, just shipping random. the people to Colombia, and he was deporting Colombians in handcuffs via military planes. Brazil has been complaining about, you know, Brazilian nationals being shipped back there in shackles as well. And I don't understand the shackles.

Like, are they afraid of a con air type situation? What's Portuguese for Cyrus the virus, I guess, is what we need to figure out. Yeah. Well, you know, I feel like it's just like, I don't know, optics or whatever, or just general asshole or even a combination thereof. You know, it's how they, if it's in line with their general. philosophy about this whole thing that that is how they would treat those people. So it's not surprising. For the photo op or because Trump's been hanging out with Dana White too much

and he thinks all Brazilian is no jiu-jitsu. So tell me how politically stupid this is. Two of Columbia's big exports to the United States are coffee and I think we get 75% of our roses from Colombia. I mean, I don't see people buying roses in the near future two weeks from now or anything like that. So it should be fine. coffee so here's some stats each day U.S. citizens consume a total of 400 million cups of coffee. Individually an American

coffee drinker consumes about three cups of coffee per day, okay? Coffee is something of a medical necessity in this country because of how boring or fucking jobs are. Yes. So Trump was kind of trying to engineer a situation where a lady with a don't speak to me until I have my coffee mug does an office shooting.

I'm sure to be, Mark, I'm sure black rifle coffee is standing back and standing by. ready to shoulder the burden of this i'm sure they'll step it up and fill the void but yeah no i mean this is a good example like type of relatively seemingly minor thing that will probably have massive you know cultural fallout if it actually happens because yeah there's a whole uh there's been so many commercials and and ag campaigns and stuff built around the idea that people cannot function without first having their coffee in the morning you know i mean i can't but yeah yeah i mean

Me neither, but I'm just saying it's like, you know, but people are going to get pissed. People get pissed when they can't have their coffee. So you make it much harder to have coffee. I mean, you thought eggs was bad. Come after coffee, people are going to flip. Well, you say if it happens, as of it right now, it's not going to happen. It could change.

It could change when the wind blows, you know, when the wind shifts direction. That's how Trump goes. But, like, so I'll also talk about how stupid this is. If only there was another multi-billion-dollar business already established that revolved around smuggling Colombian contraband into the United States. I think we almost just got the cartels, another billion-dollar business avenue. Right.

So, key player here is President Columbia, Gustavo Petro, who's a former teen guerrilla fighter for a leftist group called M-19, who was imprisoned and tortured. And he ran for president on a platform of transitioning Colombia away from being a foreign exploited Petro state, so he already doesn't hit for American corporations. But he put up a statement, a real banger of a fuck you, basically a disc track, where he said, My favorite line of it was, I will not shake hands with white slavers. So, hell yeah. And if you wonder what the real resolution of this was, Trump did not get his way.

The government of Columbia has only agreed to accept Colombian citizens, and they will be flown back using the Colombian presidential airplane as Petro demanded. His one concession was if his plane is full, he will accept Colombian citizens on other flights. So Trump either mostly back down or got bored. All that happened is that undocumented Colombians get a more comfortable ride home. And Latin countries probably get more organized about sticking together and turning more to the EU and China economically diplomatically. So does that mean that any time we've got a plane load of Colombians we're wanting to deport, they're going to send their equivalent of Air Force One up here

to pick them up and then bring them back? Yep. Damn, I didn't realize. I didn't realize it was like that. Yeah. What's like to have a president who cares about their citizens, man? It must be dope. Yeah, it's weird.

It's very foreign. to me. Hard for me to even believe, but that's, but that's cool. Yeah, well, let's get into it. Producer Matt is with us back here doing this thing, making it all saying, baby.

Either way it works. As for this here show, we'll be talking about the first week of Trump's big second go-round and all the corruption therein. Shocking, I know, but it's been dumb and upsetting so far before we get to all those specifics. We begin, of course, with the Daily Dumbass. Matt, graphic, please.

Tonight's D.D., this guy with a bag on his head while losing his grandfather's life savings for somehow being the regretful MAGA voter with the most dignity. Here's this. Ugh. $200,000. Gone. And then. So, yeah. this was a dude who posted on Reddit about having bought. This is not the meme coin, right? This is the stock is what he bought, I think. Yeah, Donald J.

the Donald Trump stock. Yeah, I guess he inherited $1.2 million from his papal and put it all in this. Weirdly, that did not work out. And he documented the whole life-ruining process. You were talking to me. He just said, my wife is going to leave me. You got it mad. right so yeah he also said because people are people some people in the comments were like

because i you know i'd be on reddit so i saw all this unfold and then and one of the subredits in the wall street subreddit they at 95% of comments were just finding creative ways to call him the r word so you know that was fun but in some of the other subredditers reposted it people tried to like wait so you know people were like well if you've got that much money to even put into this you're going to be fine right i mean hell even even at the end of this you still got half a million left and he responded to that and was like

actually a lot of this is debt and his debt back so I'm almost definitely going to lose my house and my wife is going to leave me and my family's going to fall apart and all this shit and people are like

Jesus Christ bro like yeah the uh the leopards ate my face subred it if the servers are smoking

like monster truck tires right now absolutely I did my other Patreon video I did this morning for everybody was about that about leopards ate my face and how they first

and go to the moon. They're just, they're going to be eating good over there. Dude, I don't like taking pleasure in other people's, like, misfortune, but I'll enjoy a little shade and fraud for anybody

stupid enough for $1.2 million and one stock based upon debt. But, like, the people I'm seeing, like, I just, I don't understand what people, like I saw, like somebody being like my mom,

who's a Trump voter, she's crying because Trump signing it is like an order taken away, Biden's Medicaid, prescription drug pricing limits. Um, you sent us that video of that lady who, uh, says she's a Mexican heritage crying because she didn't realize she voted for deportations. Um, uh, yeah, but in a ton of those people, uh, you know, tweeting at Ted Cruz or at Donald Trump being like, we're, we've been supporters our whole lives. We're, you know, we're maga to the core, but, you know, we're going to lose our jobs over this, but because they're like government employees or they just took a job with the government and now it's been taken away and they already sold their house and we're going to move and now they're just screwed and please help us, but it's like, you know, the guy, the guy you're talking about is that my posted like a threat on X Sam.

My wife is in tears. We spent thousands to move for a VA job, and now the offer is gone. Please, Mr. President, fix this mistake. It's like he campaigned on federal hiring freezes. What do you think those was? All of that stuff. He's only really doing things he said he was going to. That's what's weird about it to me is that he's like actually following through on some shit, you know,

and it's hurting people. But, I mean, you shouldn't be surprised because he's just, especially, because I said, you know, when I sent you the Latina crying about all this and now she, how disappointed she was. I was like, for my perspective, it seemed like that was easily top three, perhaps top one, either that or trans people or eggs, you know, things that he campaigned on was deporting these people. And I just don't know what you expect. And you were like, well, to be fair, you know, they thought he just meant like criminals, violent criminals who come up. They don't, nobody, none of these people ever think that it means them. That's the whole point of the subreddit for leopards ate my face.

I didn't know leopard's going to eat my face. I just thought they were going to eat the right faces. and this is what happens every time, but it's weird to me because it's like, I just don't know how you could have not understood if you're paying any attention to what the man said or has said for all these years, you know. It's like, it's an American brain, America brain thing where like, it's part of American exceptionalism to me. It would be, it would be evil and mean and bad to do that.

We're inherently a good country. God's, you know, chosen country, so therefore that wouldn't happen, even though, even if you kind of says it. Plus, I mean, to be fair to her, like we talked about this, but like the he does connect immigration to crime it's not it wouldn't be completely stupid to think he just meant the criminals because he but what that lady doesn't realize is he thinks being Mexican is criminal right right so um another one here uh another mager voter uh Donald Trump please help the federal hiring freeze is causing my boyfriend to no longer have a job we're

about to be homeless with a four month old little girl we need your help I don't want her to be homeless with a four month little girl that's why I didn't want fucking that's why to vote it for the other candidate but anyway the first guy attacking Ted Cruz and it's so funny because he you know famously cares for others. It's not just... Or just anything at all in the world. Yeah. Yeah.

His main hobby is just making Texas sports teams lose by being a huge fucking jinx. So, uh, yeah. I don't know, man. It's a, I hope there's an opportunity here. If someone wants to make an affirmative case for these voters, this is Donald Trump's fault. You can figure out a way to grab the microphone. And we'd be talking about opposition party stuff later if we get to it. But like, yeah.

I want to make some of those like, leadership. Like, I understand that he just got in office and egg prices. it's not anything that he's like doing or not doing yet but like I still I don't care I want to play by their rules I want to make some of those little stickers you know those I did that stickers of Trump and just put it got all these grocery stores I mean I'm not going to because it would be doing a thing and also in California it's like preaching to the choir probably where I'm at but like anybody watching Alabama or Tennessee you guys should do that'd be funny I think but people need to fucking go after him for all this stuff the way

that they always did like what the fuck eggs are this expensive oh you know what's pretty much all the Democrats are talking about is egg prices and they do actually talk about stuff. I mean, like, that's not totally true. They would, you talk about the Democrats as a party is very weird right now because none of them are on the same page. But, um, Chuck Schumer's all over the egg prices, you know, so there we go. Well, that's something. Okay, we got an honorable mention for you, climate scientists who didn't think of this brilliant idea, wet desert. This is Trump after touring the Palisades fire.

And they want to do that every once in a while and you just think it's ridiculous when you have, you have like just about as much water as anybody in the country and we shouldn't be in a position where you have tumbleweed that's dry as a bone that even tumbleweed can be nice and green and rich and load it up with water and it's not going to burn you don't even have to remove it it's not going to burn how would a wet weed tumble it wouldn't blow on the fucking weird no it's in the name okay man i'm not going to survive this next four years or something i don't know what wet weed would do ploppy weed just clopped yeah all right but what is he proposed and like just water the desert like he sprinklers in the desert just california has a secret water supply they're turning off or not using

no one can figure out what the fuck is talking about like it's like it's like one thing california politicians are deeply concerned with it's real estate prices they would not turn off the water spicket we don't have to it doesn't it's it's not dive into it is it stupid fair enough

Well, what are we going to dive into, Mark? Oh, exactly one week of being ruled by late stage Hapsburg is apparently what we're doing. The real story of this first week is like just straightforward corruption. Bionaire seated on the inaugural stage, getting better seat than Congress people, a crypto-pump and up scheme, the illegal firing of inspectors generals, pretty much all 17 of the 18 in the federal government. I saw the inspectors general thing. You know, I saw people making an uproar because they're like,

this is illegal. There's like a law says you can't do that. Like he's broken the law. Why is it? No one's going to do anything about this? It's like, well, no. Like, of course they're not. Like, that's what, that's what he does, you know? Inspector's General, like, their jobs to investigate the agencies

they work for for fraud and abuse and corruption, right? And you're supposed to the law. They're because of Nixon, right? Like, because of the Nixon administration in response to that was the position of Inspector General. It's like a check on executive power, I think. Yeah. Yeah. It's like, It's like a, like a, you know, the rat squad for the Department of Agriculture.

So, like, the law says you're supposed to give Congress 30 days notice before firing Inspector General. That law was written by Lindsey Graham, I think, and he was on, he's like, well, they're on TV being like, that's fine. Like, corruption is like a straightforward issue. The congressional Democrats could make a big deal about if the entirety of the New York and New Jersey delegations weren't explicitly in it to do insider training, but whatever. there's still incompetence fuck they apparently use chad gbt to write a bunch of executive orders so they're not going to hold up in court because they don't make any sort of internal sense like even even conservative lawyers have a pride and they're professional pride they can't like rubber stamp a chat gbt

president right uh so but since since there's a lot of executive orders they're like more limited than they seem at first because it's just the nature of what they even are or can do like I don't know how true or accurate this is. I saw people claiming to be lawyers on the internet saying that, like the one that he wrote that he put out that rescinded the one of the Civil Rights Act or something like that. But it was, or the Equal Opportunity Act, right? The Equal Opportunity Act. But it was like really that rescinded an executive order in relation to the act. Like you can't just take an executive order and rescind an congressional act like that.

Like Congress would have to undo that through a whole process. But you just read it, and it sounds like, you know, that that's what he did. Right. You can't, like, but what he can do is, like, there's, like, federal hiring standards that, like, require, like, cert, like, like, diversity or whatever. He got, he tried to, he basically tried to get rid of those. Like, like, all the anti-trans ones, the material impact I've seen so far that the State Department isn't going to recognize passports that have not, like, non-binary genders on it. So, like, if you, if you go, if a trans person goes on vacation to Portugal, they might have trouble getting back into the country at customs, right? So, like, it's like, the president's not a king as much as he wants to pretend he is.

So, like, it's not that this stuff is great. It's that it's that the president swoop into office, especially Republicans, because it's easier for them to do stuff they want to do the executive order because it's easier to end stuff than it is to build stuff. Right. So like, so like they always come in. There's like this flurry of executive action. Joe Biden did his version of it too. And so the first week seemed like a drastic change than, you know, the ship of states, a fucking aircraft carrier doesn't turn on a dime. So I want to talk about immigration first because that's, you know, Trump's main thing that he's a big hero on.

So let's look at this video of Tom Homan on one of the Sunday shows. To avoid arrest. What criminals are hiding in schools? Middle schools. Elementary schools. You going to go into those? How many MS-13 members are at age 14-17? Many of them.

All right. So, look, this is the national security of that. We found the one crime MS-13 will not commit to a rate. And it's truancy. They are going to school. I mean, I saw, right before we started, real, I don't know, an hour or so ago, I saw another post on Reddit out of Texas where a teacher in Texas, like, called ICE or whatever, and asked him to raid the school that he works at.

Because it's a quote from him, I got a lot of students that don't even speak English. So, you know, like, it's definitely, schools are on the table for sure. And he's like, if I remember, that guy was a substitute and he immediately got fired. So there you go. Well, yeah, even if you wasn't a substitute, you should be fun. I mean, that's super fucked up.

You can't have a teacher doing that shit. Nope. The school didn't hire you to snitch on fucking English and these things with second language kids. So anyway, if you want to know how good they aren't self-generating bullshit issues, I haven't thought about MS-13 since like 2019. Right.

They have not been in the news at all. Now they're just pretending there's some big threat. So Dr. Phil has been doing a rattleongs, videotap rottalongs of ice raids in Chicago. there he is he's like their actual news media isn't being informed

about this stuff but Dr. Phil is he doing his episode is immigration like immigration version of cops so this immigrant this guy who got arrested had no idea

his immigration status I just said immigrant but I don't know that he got he got arrested and Dr. Phil was interviewing him on this little web show or whatever

he said Dr. Phil says you've never been deported before and the guy said you're Dr. Phil, you look like Dr. Phil. He said, yeah, how do you know me? And he goes, I've seen you on Dr. Phil. I suppose that does make sense.

You can't get any more America than recognizing a dipshit influencer from his daytime talk show. So I don't know how I did the details this guy's case or whatever. But so Dr. Phil tried to get the man to talk to him. He said, I'm not going to stand here. I want to talk to my lawyer. So I'm not sure what you say to Dr. Phil. will be held against you in a core of law. We're kind of through the looking glass here.

But, like, yeah, do not, do not talk to Dr. Phil, ask for a lawyer. Okay. So talking about the one, the shackles on airplanes for, for the photo ops, there's been a bunch of high profile rate. Like, they, the ice rated, like, went to a church in Atlanta to pick up a guy who was wearing a tracking bracelet, so they could have just got him anywhere. And he didn't put it in his word resistance. The ice agents did not go into the church, so good for them.

They wait if they got to come out and they, you know, do whatever they're going to do. they've been raised at schools and hospitals in Chicago. There's like viral TikToks of people hiding under the floor during workplace raids of construction sites. I suppose the U.S. citizen and veteran in New Jersey, I guess because he had brown skin or something. Yeah. Right. Do you think, I've seen people propose before, and I think we talked about it briefly before he, like, actually took office again. But, like, you know, he just got in.

Like, I saw people say beforehand, it's like, look, what he might do is a big, opening, you know, spree like this, deportation spree. It's very high profile and very, you know, kind of over the top with the shackles and all this shit. And it's like really strong man stuff where it's like, look, we're doing it. See, we told you and we're fucking doing it. And then gradually it just kind of, you know, fades or sort of goes away because they, you know,

I saw where a farmer said earlier, some farmer interviewed said, if they actually deport them all, then we'll run out of food in two days. And they want to have people at their construction sites and all this stuff. And that comes up all the time. I'm like, they know that. It'll cost them money. So they won't really do this. They won't go all the way, right?

Or, I mean, will they? Well, ICE isn't staffed up for it. Also, like, if you're an ice, like, ice warrant isn't the same as, like, a cop warrant. They can't, like, the, you, so it depends on whether or not they're willing to risk jail to break the law in the Constitution, right? Which is, well, if you're front-line ICE agent trying to get to your pension, I don't know if you want to, even if you really, even if you're really enthusiastic about your job. So that's part of it. So unless they can change the law and increase the size of ice by what, what, what, by spending a ton of money.

I don't know if we're going to be able to do it. I'm sure they're going to try, but then we've got to see what Congressional Republicans do because, again, they have business interests in their districts that rely on labor. So we're going to see. They need their slaves. The congressional Republicans,

aren't they at a little retreat right now trying to figure out exactly what the fuck they're going to do, read Trump and his agenda, whatever? I think they're in Florida for like a three-day thing aimed at, like, you know, coming together on how to address Trump's agenda or whatever, because obviously a lot of them don't really get along. with each other.

So we're talking about whether or not it's just spectacle or whether it's like, you know, I don't know they'd rather treat. You're more formed than me about that. But like, so here's some numbers for you. These are from the Trump administration. I would think they'd lie in their other directions, so I've no reason to disbelieve them. And so far, the White House said immigration agents, these numbers as a couple days ago, I think,

immigration agents have arrested to 538 undocumented immigrants and deported hundreds more. So less than 1,000 people, I think. So compare the 538 to it's lower the number of arrests at the same point in time in 2017 when it was 675 that was when he had threatened to deport millions

never got around to it. But they openly announced before they took office that one of their main weapons here is going to be fear to get people to self-deport or stop coming. So the fear appears to be real. Like you talked about,

like we talked about earlier, the leopards-eating face lady who was crying, one thing she was crying about is her coworkers and stock coming to work. because they're afraid of workplace rates, right? So the food industry in California, let me quote here, fears of increased ice raids have already negatively affected the nation's agriculture sector, causing alarm that food prices could skyrocket in the near future.

About 75% of immigrant farm workers did not show up for work one day last week in Bakersfield after border patrol agents in unmarked Chevy Suburans rounded up and detained immigrants in the area. And the end result was acres of unpicked oranges roasting in the California sun at the height of the season. I just don't understand what these, like, zealous people, either with the Border Patrol or ICE or just all the people that support them. It's like, in a scenario like that one in particular, like, what, how, how do they think is, you know, going to happen? How's it going to work out? It's like, we'll just get all these criminals out of here and then get some good, hardworking Americans to pick these oranges, and then that'll be fine. Like, we'll just hire Americans.

That's how we'll fix this. Like, they genuinely believe that's how it's going to work. Yeah, hire Americans for three. dog an hour will sleep in tents. Yeah. So I don't like I don't know what this step two of their plan. This is what this is just the danger of operating of unreality. It's why I like to talk about the moral panics and the, the, the, the, the, uh, conspiracy theories and shit, because like people just let go of reality, including

large parts of our government. And for context here, Bakersfields and California's central valley, which produces approximately a quarter of America's food. Yeah. A lot of people I think maybe don't realize how important agriculturally California is. Like, you know, because You think of the Century, you know, the Great Plains and all that. It's like the breadbasket of America. But California is way, way up there in terms of agricultural production. If you ever drive through California in the middle part of it or whatever, I mean, it's like nothing but farmland for miles and miles as far as you can see.

And what people think of is like the American farmland, they're largely making corn for corn syrup and ethanol and soybeans to be exported to China. Yes. So talking about egg prices, it's not about science. for a second because one of the big things they've done is like strip away all America's forward progress in health sciences, okay? Like National Institutes of Health is a $48 billion

federal agency and they just hit them with a wide range of restrictions including the abrupt cancellation of meetings such as grant review panels. The order of communications pause, a freeze on hiring, and an indefinite ban on travel. So we're basically even short delays in this stuff. We'll put America way behind other countries in

scientific research. So basically what we're heading towards is like Chinese people live to be 140 while we die of ricketts okay i mean why is this literally just like punitive because of co vouchy and covid and all that's like they're just they're just like it's just vengeance just fuck you n i h because of the covid thing like what i i i don't i i can't think of any sort of like other than just the government sucks and science is woke you know i don't like you could like you could like frame it as like a revenge on the american people for not electing him in 2020, but like, I don't know, but I guess like, but a bunch of scientists who otherwise

dedicated to life to stuff like curing cancer are now unemployed, I guess, instead they can pivot to being part of the problem and try to invent new kinds of pesticides. But because the price of eggs was a big thing or like the egg prices are still spiking, mostly because of H5N1 bird flu and solving that problem, according to from scientists, requires urgent, important communications from the CDC and FDA and rapid development of research by the national. National Institutes of Health. The first part is currently paused by executive order, and now all the grant reviews for new research are canceled.

So if we're trying to actively cause a bird flu pandemic and make sure real eggs are more expensive than Faberjah eggs, these are exactly the policy steps you would take. Yeah, I personally like eggs, but I didn't want to overthrow the government fort and also don't want to die a bird flu for eggs. So this is a real... There again, is it just like, are there, you know, contracts? like big, either big pharma or big tech health or something, you know what I mean,

big corporations that could get contracts to do these things or something and therefore enriching, you know, people that are big campaign don't. I'm just trying to think like, I mean, you know. It doesn't, there's not even a conspiracy theory that makes this make sense because the private corporations end up profit in off these treatments that are invented by the NH to a large degree and without expect, like the whole reason the government funds this research is because it's not considered profitable for private industry to do it. Right.

And the return of investment here is. through the roof. Like it's basically, if the U.S. government spent all of its money on this stuff, we'd all be better off. So it doesn't make any sort of sense to me. And also to the talk about the politics part of it. Trump, like a bunch of people are going to die of cancer. Like, let me, so the National Cancer Institute, which is under the National Institute of Health, has around 3,500 employees and the largest cancer research funding body in the world. It supports dozens of NCI designated cancer centers around the country and helps coordinate clinical trials across more than 3,000 sites.

Currently, there were 67,100 studies registered at Clinical Trials.gov that until this week, we're actively recruiting participants and 21,000 studies that were active but not recruiting right now. So basically hundreds of thousands of people are fighting for their lives. We're going to have a last-ed shot

at unproven therapies, and the government just took it away at the behest of Donald Trump. Because in the real world, the government does good and important shit a lot of times. Right, well, see, that's part of what I was trying to get at was like, what is the conservative argument for this? Because it's always, you know, fuck the government, you know, small government, overreach can have it. We don't need regulations.

We don't need the government doing all this shit. And I always thought that their proposed solution to that was because, again, that can be all be handled by private industry. Like, you know, corporations, companies can take care of that. You don't need the government to do it. But in situations like this where, like you just said, it doesn't make sense. it's not profitable for private industry to do these types of things so they don't like then what then we just let cancer you know kill people and continue to not be solved and all that like just for to what end just because like you said government bad and science is woke i mean i guess

yeah i guess i guess i guess yes is the answer to that question but that's uh it's wild yeah um yeah I mean, I don't know how the answer to this stuff because, like, there's no, there's no, there's so much stuff that, like, like, a lot of the ways in which society, society's broken, like, everything revolving around, if it's not profitable, it doesn't make sense. You can see, like, well, the post office to run, like, a business. No, it shouldn't. Right. The Constitution promises that people can get mail. Like, it's like, so, like, it's good to be able to keep people to get mail. It's also good for American commerce, people to be able to, I know mail bills out and checks.

It's nice to get birthday money for your grandma. not everything has to be for money. And the road that goes by my mom's house would not be profitable for a private corporation wouldn't build it. They wouldn't make enough tolls for it to exist. Right. People pay taxes and live in a country where they should be able to go visit their family. It's like I can't really, I don't, yeah. I don't know, man.

It's a, right. And like, how does a fire department make any money? They charge you to put out fires, which means poor people's houses will burn down. And, you know, and that they're just. fires that, that's okay. And fires at poor people's houses spread to rich people's houses. Right. Diseases spread.

Right. Like, a poor person catching the bird flu is going to go, going to give it to their wife who's a rich person's made. You know what I'm saying? It's like, it's like, so everything about this. I mean, the idea that everything is so completely short-sighted. What was it? Permanent presentisms, what we talked about after the election, yeah, the new word I learned.

So some of the wokeness aspects of it, because this is pretty fucking fine. um they put one of the executive orders uh create a new definition for biological sex like we talked about the passports and stuff earlier but across the federal government but it was it was that the the biological sex you were at conception which made all of us female yeah we're all girls now so that's fine right i feel sassy now but uh yeah so now according to nancy mace we can all go in the women's room i guess um because yeah because it's every at conception every uh zygote or whatever is a female and then later the Y chromosome is what

turns it into a male fetus or whatnot but at conception we're all we're all ladies so that's how they defined it so I'm going to go sign up to do some college women swimming now don't worry I'll be really bad at it but apparently that's what the panic was about

probably the funniest part of this was like Trump made the CIA cancel their black history month first of all the CIA having black history month is fucking hilarious to me they got rid of like affinity groups. I guess they would have like whatever their identity was. They have in the like the lander they used to get in the building.

Which to say, trying to be woke is just funny to me. But like. Yeah. I'm not sure what it should be. No, they meant black ops history month. That's what it's what it's supposed to be. So,

uh, I don't know what they think to say actually does, but like it's nice to have people who understand other cultures, reading intelligence briefings from the countries that their ancestors were from in their language, you know, I think it would probably be pretty helpful to, like, the CIA and the State Department and the different intelligence agencies staffed up with, like, Arabic and Farsi speakers after 9-11 for fairly obvious reasons. Right.

So I guess their plan right now is to have like a white Methodist from Connecticut try to infiltrate Boko Haram or something. Uh-huh. I'm not sure what the fucking plan is. Yeah. He also put out an order to declassify the JFK files, which I think was part of his handshake deal with RFK Jr. endorsement, but it, so Trump's operating in a world

where he seems to believe the CIA killed JFK, kills American presidents, but also he's going to intensely fuck with them. Right. I don't have to square those two thoughts at the same time. Yeah. Well, you know, he's like, yeah, but I'm a badass American president. I can't be killed, yeah. I'm going to fuck with me.

Obviously, can't nobody fuck with me. But yeah, I mean, I'm sure all the conspiracy, you know, people who love this motherfucker anyway, are fired up about that, about these, you know, ancient declassified files. But the DEI stuff in the government, because I know you're about to sit there also, because I saw, like, people were talking about, you know, NASA cracks down on DEI. And then people are like, no, this is just, this came from OPM. This came from the top of, like, the Trump administration that got disseminated to every agency, this, like, their memo or whatever you want to call it, about DEI and how it included. it like you know if you see something say something like report the i stuff and all this

and it's like what literally what does that mean is it just like if you just got like you know a co-worker who's a black woman who's like a manager or something and so you just report her for being like well that's clearly DEI because you know there's no way she could have been qualified like what i mean i don't i think the main thing i try to hold it put pronouns your bio or try to hold any sort of seminar or carry an anti-racism book or like it's basically this is a society who had revolt against HR meaning boring HR meetings so they can't do the HR meetings anymore which who like I remember being in one at a job I had and it was like these things are just these things are just ass coverings for the company yes

always 100% I don't know how they they misunderstand this is corporate brainwashing when it's just so if somebody touches an intern's ass we can say well we told them not to touch buts we said right it's always funny because i did i used to work for the federal government we had to do a ton of those it was always funny to me thinking it's like the idea that there's some some like you know older middle-aged white guys sitting there watching this training whatever and being like oh damn that's that's not cool to grab to grab their asses like this whole time i thought it was totally fine i guess i better stop doing that now you know like did you see that story I think it was in Forbes or Financial Times with the interview, like, the people on Wall Street who are like, like, I'm quoting here.

So, like, it's like, they're excited because they think the Trump's president again, they get to say a pussy and retard at work. Yeah, they said they've been liberated is the word they use. We feel liberated. Yeah, me and Drew talked about that on Well, right? After you send it to us to us. I don't know how to tell you that you still can't say that at work. Right. Like, the president's not subject to HR laws.

Your company is. I don't know what to tell you. Right. But it's like, so whatever, man. I'm not sure, but people are insanely stupid about this stuff. But, yeah, so you're talking about the DIA snitch email account? So people are sending it, Scientology emails, porn, and the script of the B movie. You know, small victories.

That's all we got. Malicious compliance. There you go, yes. I don't know, like, if somebody wears a cafe at a work or what about a Yamika? And I'm like, I don't know what they think, what they think is snitching on people where D.E.I. is. So these agencies trying to comply with this stuff They're not actually woke

Is they causing some pretty hilarious results So like like the Air Force got to don't be woke orders And they're like Well, we're not woke We have to do something So The clues they came to was to cancel Like they took the lessons

About the Tuskegee Airmen Out of their curriculum for them They put it back in after a public outroar But like They're like they're looking around Like what can we do It's like well We want to keep the stealth powers painted black

So like what can we we do. And all we got is Tuskegee Airmen. Right. You know, so like what it's like these, they're trying to look busy and it's resulting on some extremely stupid shit, man. And like, I need, I need people to notice. It's not just Trump worried about coffee prices in Colombia, like the Air Force responded to political pressure because Trump didn't actually mean for them to take the Tuskegee

airmen out. Maybe somebody did, but nobody cares. Like, like political pressures, there's still, there is still politics in this country, okay? Like, the idea that, like, American democracy did not fully end on November 5th or whatever, and people need to, like, get organized and pay attention. Because I gather that, I know people have tuned out for a little while, and I get it, but, like, it feels like the Democratic Party is also clocked out a little bit, and I don't think that's really a great idea right now. Yeah, I mean, anybody that's still listening to us right now, I guess, is not clocked out, or at least they're still with us in particular, which I do appreciate. but I've been kind of a little bit surprised by the number of people that I've met at my shows and meet and greets and stuff who are like, you know, like they're still there at the show and they're like me and everything, but who are talking about how they're, you know, they've just had to check out for a while. Like they just ain't been watching another queue up.

And I get a lot of messages and comments. I say I'm surprised. I totally get that impulse. What I mean is like I thought that, but my fan specifically, I thought would be some of the people who. would be unable to do that, even if they felt like they would feel compelled to keep up with it all. But I've gotten a lot of, you know, like I said, messages or people saying otherwise. And I mean, you know, I hear you. Right. So, so talking about, like, a lot of this stuff is extreme, besides being bad government, like governmentally stupid and societally stupid, a lot of

it's also extremely politically stupid. For example, the January 6th pardons are insane politically, And that's why, like, even a bunch of congressional Republicans are worried about it because it's a really bad idea. Every one of the, half of these guys profile his family, potential family annihilators, right? And he let them back on the street and pardon means they can get guns now. Okay. So, like, some of their families already have restraining orders. They're going to commit crimes. In fact, they already have.

January 6th are from Houston. He's already wanted for online solicitation of a minor, okay? Like, as a person who cares about criminal justice stuff, I hate it when, like, Like, somebody gets, like, bail without putting up a ton of cash for, like, a minor offense, and then goes out and commits another crime. Be like, oh, they should have kept them in jail for jaywalking because he's, because he's robbed somebody at my point. Like, well, you didn't know he was going to rob somebody at my point. And cash bail is unfair. It's unfair, probably unconstitutional, okay?

So I hate that politics in this country works this way, but he did free a bunch of people who were convicted of violent crimes. They're going to do other violent crimes. And, like, they need to get used to, like, I saw a friend of the show. Eric Swalwell being, like, John, talking about this stuff says, uh, Donald Trump does not back the blue. He backs the coup. And I'm like, I know that rhymes, but like, no, we had a big vote about whether or not the coup mattered and it didn't. But people don't want these people free to be out there soliciting their children online for sex. For sure. It also, you know, kind of sends the message that, you know, if you go to bat or war for him or whatever, you know, violently,

you'll be okay, you know, as long as he's in charge. Like, if he's there, it's like, Yeah, if you do my dirty work and whatnot, I'll take care of you. It kind of sends that message, too. So it's fucked up in a lot of ways. But it's, you know, again, not surprising. Those are. But he can't protect them from everything. For example, a January 6th or in Indiana got shot and killed by a cop on Sunday during a traffic stop.

So, like, these stories are out there. And if Democrats want to hold a big press conference, they can't complain about immigration really, unfortunately, because a bunch of them, I told you, I think it ended up being 12. senators. I'm not sure how many people in the House voted for the Lake and Raleigh Act. Like, I was like, like, Raphael Warnock voted for it. And like, I was thinking about that when ICE busted that guy out of church on Sunday. I'm like, like, like, it's his state, Atlanta. ICE is going to churches. And he can't, Raphael Warnock can't even complain about it because he voted for a bill to make situations like that more common and worse. So, like, I, just like political malpractice among, like, not really, not really being a good idea. So they, they, they, they, The QAnon Shaman tweeted X, whatever you want to call it, after he got pardoned. He's already been free, I think, because he ran for Congress in Arizona.

But he was like, after he got pardoned, he was like, I'm going to buy so many fucking guns. So when he does whatever he does is going to do, it'd be nice to have to already make noise about the dangers of this ahead of time. So you can make some political hay out of it when it happens because it's already happening and no one's talking about it. Well, within, like, whatever he ends up doing, maybe he'll just, like, Barney Fives himself. Plaxico Burris is himself. You know what I mean? Oh, yeah. It's all this guns just accidentally incapacitates himself while fucking around with it.

That would be. Plachico Burris, if you're not a football fan, was a receiver for the New York Giants who was carrying a loaded gun in his sweatpants at a strip club, and it went off and shot him in the leg. A great American hero. So this stuff being political malpractice is why even Republicans like Lindsey Graham are going on TV and say, saying it's a bad idea to pardon all the January 6 people. So that's the thing that definitely happened. Other political malpractice, now, if I was an aspiring authoritarian, I, for one, would the rank and follow military to be deeply committed to me?

Would you, Trey? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So part of their potential budget cuts, they're passed around a document around the DOD that, among other things, would get rid of a lot, like, cut hiring of new troops, recruiting of new troops. They also, like, it canceled.

the commissary, which troops basically get a grocery store on base where they can, it's my understanding, as they can buy their subsidized grocery stores, so they can buy food at cost, veterans and troops, and their families. So, one of the ways

we get away with paying troops so little is stuff like giving them food, their family's food stamps, and also giving them the commissary. Yeah. So I don't think it's a good idea to take this stuff away. I don't, this, I saw this just earlier today, too, and I was

kind of genuinely surprised by that. I mean, he has proven time and time again over the years he has nothing but utter contempt for the American military and yet, you know, support the troops, people continue to jerk him off and everything. But I didn't think he would do this, like, kind of

actively go after, uh, you know, the troops in this way. Like, fuck them over, make their lives more difficult. Um, I mean, he truly is just like emboldened to do literally whatever he wants. But this is a great example of the type of thing. It's like, I cannot imagine the outcry over this if a Democrat ever proposed it, right, from people. Like, it'd be nonstop

headline news on the right. They'd be losing their minds. And, you know, what are they going to say now that Trump is actually doing it? Probably not much, I would imagine. It's fucking wild. Maybe the, maybe the, you know, if we get another bonus army, like a bunch of troops go and occupied DC, like 50,000 troops did in 1932. Um, also like, Forget the campaigning of lower grocery type prices. It's a bad idea for, they want to take away cheap groceries from struggling veterans, your own guns.

It seems like a bad idea. Let's talk about the Democrats for a few minutes on here. Let me quote here from a piece about, like, how their ticket around ideas to figure out how to be an opposition party in this era, which is like Trump won with a bare plurality. And they're acting like, he won with the FDR level mandate. And I don't really understand.

But he's like, we're obviously in a bit of disarray, a Democratic senator told Semaphore. I don't think people are really completely sure about what lesson is to be learned in this election. Give us a little time, Sinai Minority Whip Dick Durbin said. This is brand new, this is brand new, he said. The rest of us have been aware this is in 1980s. They were running a five-decade assault in the courts, local government school boards, and they would land them exactly where they are now. This is part of the plan going back at least 50 years.

I mean, shit, the business plot was over 80 fucking years ago. They tried to have their FDR. And like, why are you not prepared for this? Like, I think it's a matter of too many people in the Democratic Party also, you know, getting fat over that time and, you know, too much money being made and all that stuff. So they can't be, you know, they got to also be down with capitalism while still being like, well, we're for the people too. And then also that whole thing that they've had going for a long time where it's like,

well, you know, they're not, they won't do that. I think it's not going to get that bad, or we can still work with these people reasonably and all that, that type of myth that should have been disabused a long time ago at this point, but they still can't get over. What the American people crave is performative bipartisanship trade. That's what they want. When people are starving and, like, in times of stress and war and famine, what they want to see is handshakes across the aisle. They do seem to realize, like it's not that, like I said earlier, talking about the Democrats as a party is always kind of a mistake. mistake because it's like you're talking about a big tent of a thousand different belief systems they're basically just unified and one belief that religious conservatism is often bad that's basically the over the overarching thing everything else is up for grabs where they can be cosmopolitan liberal but pro business or hardcore smash the fascist right defund the police right so uh so so it's not that none of there were protesting trump's actions like when i when i when i like arrested that veteran American citizen in New Jersey, his local congressman went to

bathroom like trying to hold ICE accountable. People are doing stuff. People are saying stuff. AOC's making a bunch of noise about the rising town of fascism, all this shit. So like this isn't like about them as a group, but about the leadership of the Democratic Party who is old and has that America brain thing that we talked about earlier where they think, well, bad stuff can't happen in America because America, right? So, but they do understand that to the degree they have a message, they can't really get it out. So they're trying to learn the internet, okay? It seems like a good time to do that, 2025 after a crushing defeat.

Maybe we should figure out this whole the internet thing to kids are doing. Who is this for Chan? Yeah. So last week, Senate Democrats, I'm going to quote here from CNN, Senate Democrats had a lunch and discuss how to go viral. And quote, one of the bright spots Democrats highlighted was a viral video from the pandemic of Mark Warner making a tuna milk. in his kitchen.

Right. So what's the takeaway from that? More sandwich making videos. Got to do crossover content with food, food, internet's a big space. I'm attempting that myself right now, so I understand where it's coming from. But maybe like,

like, O.C makes cooking videos or she talks what she cooks. Like, I don't know. Maybe it'll work. I don't know. But that's not the reason things go viral. It's not like, it's not super complicated why things go viral.

claptery roast jokes go viral okay emotional appeals especially to anger go viral viral so what I'm saying is the key to going viral is to be funny and to give a shit or pretend to give a shit neither of those things or it's things Chuck Schumer is good at right okay it's not a matter of like being clever about it it's about posting a lot of shit and see what sticks see what see what see what because you can't control what goes viral or plan to go viral unless you're going to do a CIA influence op right so like, but what Chuck Schumer is doing, here's a post he made this week. So the White House was like, President Trump orders historic transparency, JFK, RFK, and MLK files to be declassified.

Chuck, quote, tweeted with, now do UFOs. All right. What do you, so I saw somebody who's adjacent to Democrat consultant class in D.C. explaining what's happening when you see stuff like this, because Amy Klobuchar was doing something, like, when you see them, like, make noise of being open to talking to RFK about the dangers of vaccines or whatever. what happened is they've got some poll in this show is they got their shit wrecked with low information voters low trust voters right so they're doing this because they think they're trying to do poll tested psychotic shit right do you understand us do you think marjor taylor green is poll testing her shit right no yeah you can't coach that dude she just she just got it like that in terms of being a lunatic yeah you can't it's like

yeah trying to pander to lunatics while but in a way that's still kind of and socially acceptable by non-Lunitics or whatever. You've got to find a way to corner this lunatic vote. It's not going to vote. It's not going to work. It's not going to work. It's never going to work. I'm thinking about all this.

And I came across, I remember this this week. There's a document that SAI produced in 1944. It's called the CA's Simple Sabotage Fuel Manual. A timeless guy to subverting any organization with, quote, purposeful stupidity. Okay, let me read through here the keys of sabotaging an organization. I want you to see if any of this sounds familiar

to American politics, okay? Insist on doing everything through channels. An aspect of that is never permit shortcuts to be taken in order to expedite decisions. Make speeches. Talk as frequently as possible in a great length,

illustrate your points by long anecdotes and accounts of personal pre-experiences. Also, when possible, referral all matters to committees for further study and consideration. Yeah. Let's table that for now. Yeah, what you always want to do is make the committee as large as possible, according to the CA,

never less than five. Haggle over the precise wording of communications, minutes, and solutions. Refer back to matters decided upon at the last meeting and attempt to reopen the question of the advisability of that decision. Yeah. One of the last steps is to advocate caution and to quote, be reasonable and urge your fellow conferees to be reasonable and avoid haste, which might result in embarrassments or difficulties later on. I'm having, like, Vietnam flashbacks right now to my job, but also really to Hollywood, too.

Like, the show business industry itself is also very, a whole lot of this applies there, too. It's like most of my adult life has been spent dealing with this exact bullshit. It's also like a step-by-step guide to making Democratic Congress. Right. And Joe Biden's last administration. Okay. They're so dysfunctional.

They have arrived. I'm giving them credit here and say it's accidental. They're accidentally a CIA sabotage for their own party. Oh, my God, bro. That does check out. Where do you stand in like? Because I saw people, you're saying, opposition politics or whatever.

I was looking at the politics subreddit earlier, and it was like there was a few different articles written about things. like, you know, Adam Schiff blast Trump after, you know, whatever else. Democrats slam Trump administration over egg prices, whatever, and there were people in the comments being like, oh, did they slam them? Oh, I bet they're shaking now. What's next? The fucking strongly worded letter or whatever, which is exactly what they did.

And it's like just, and I get the impulse there, but it's also like, I mean, what are they supposed to do right now in the position that they're in? Like, actually, what do they, in the fucking? very underpowered position they're in because of the way this country voted and the way it's gerrymandered and stuff but what do they do other than just

you know bitching and slamming people you know like okay so that's good inside baseball about like how you construct your like structure TV shows like John Oliver and a show

I work for a patriot act or whatever but what you need are characters and villains all right you don't you're not just doing a fact based like essay you need you need people to make fun of or to hold up as bad guys to move story along. Who are the Democrats' main villains right now?

The Republicans, like, held impeachment hearings for Alexander Mayorkas, Joe Biden. They got George Soros. They got Anthony Fowice. They're talking about arresting Anthony Fauci and reinstating Mark Millie to, like, court marshal him for treason, all this stuff. They have a, they have a rogues gallery of villains. Who are the congressional Democrats villains? Because Elon Musk is a fucking layup of an evil psychopath. Yeah.

Who they could paint as the George Soros of the right very more fairly and easily. And. Right. Do you know what I see what I'm saying? I do. But I mean, I get to me, Elon is, Elon and Trump are the probably two main villains right now on the left. But I mean, you mean from the actual Congress though, like Democrats in Congress. And so like open investigations into them and shit like have the type of the equivalent of what they used to do for Hunter Biden and that type of thing.

but for some of these got, like for Elon. I have a unified press conference where you stand together with, or do what we do on the show and have a video clips of show. This is what this fucking Dickhead Elon did this week to make your life worse. Here's what he's up to. They're trying to crash the economy and make crypto more valuable. Elon's in the pocket of the Chinese Communist Party because he wants to sell Tesla's over there while they're stealing our IP and our technology.

Like, it's like half this stuff is like, it's not unfair to me. It's a little bit of fearmongery. I probably not go that far about the debate about, I wouldn't say Chinese Communist Party, for example. I would talk about, like, like, trying to, like, tank the U.S. economy so its Chinese investments are more powerful. But, like, but, like, they, but instead, they're talking about how, like, why, I agree with the mission of Doge, and we've got to learn to work with Elon. We've got to work with the Trump administration. It's like, no.

It's not like, that's not going to work, bro. It's not going to work. But they don't want to paint bad guys because they don't want to act like you have to choose between supporting either Elon or his employees. You don't think like you're choosing between those two things. You act like a rising tide can float all boats, and that's not the politics of 2025. It's just not. You've got to have an enemy, and they don't want to have enemies. They don't want to fight.

It's like they act like fighting people that is below their, beneath their social station, because they all had to debate club together at Harvard. Right. It's just not how things work anymore. And like, I don't, like, I'm waiting, like, a few of them seem to see it. AOC definitely sees it. Bernie definitely sees it. But like, Chuck Schumer does not.

Chuck Schumer is like, how does this affect egg prices? Who's the villain of egg prices? You've got to point to an evil person who's doing bad shit. Unless you're going to blame Elon for engineering the bird flu in a lab, you don't have a villain here. Yeah. Well, that would be fine. Yeah, I mean, I think that, you know, the villain should be Trump, you know, like he's the president and he controls egg prices. They trap it.

Like, it's not enough. Like, it's like, it's like they, it's, it's, it's, it's like, you've got to paint more than one. You've got to have a cabal. Create a cabal guys. They're a real-life cabal. We're fucking over American workers and tanking the American economy on purpose to get wages down.

Yeah, that's a good point. They're always talking about on their side. It's like there's this secret shadowy cabal that's aimed at, you know, undermining, you know, real Americans that they're evil doings and all this shit. And it's like that actually is true and does exist. It's just that, you know,

it's the people that you worship, like Elon and his other, you know, his billionaire buddies, they're the ones actually doing that. So one quick question. because it's finalized now. Save it for the very end. So if people don't care, it's fine.

Mark, what do you think is going to happen in the Super Bowl? The set up has been, or the matchup has been set, I should say. Kansas City Chiefs, who else? Chiefs win after three ridiculous calls and a doint-in field goal at last second. I agree completely. Couldn't have said it better myself. Yeah. Help me say, Juan Bonkley, you're my only hope.

I know you're a Cowboys fan, so it's fucked the Eagles. And I don't, the Eagles don't hit for me, and I wouldn't want them to win either, but I just can't with the Chiefs. But they're going to, though. I'm 100% convinced that they are going to win. So we'll see how that plays out. But also, again, like I said, thanks for watching. I've been getting pretty good reports from people, I think, on this new version of the show.

It's going the way we hoped it would, i.e., on your end, the end user experience, seems to not be affected too awful much by us pre-recording it the way we are. So thank you all for putting up with us, and we appreciate that. and also again go to traycrouter.com like I said come and see me I'm putting a new hour together and it's uh I think it's going pretty good it's been been hitting lately for people so I think you'll enjoy it and if you're worried about being overloaded on politics at my shows it's not like that I mean I do a little bit but I do a whole lot more of just uh funny stuff that if I hit for you it'll hit for you but without making you want to kill yourself because of the state of the country we live in
