before we get to a fascinating conversation with Savanna Hernandez
in which I've prepared her none for which is going
to be fun and interesting and I'm excited for you
to to see a different side of I think Turning

(01:59):
Points Tonight favorite guest before that I thought this was
really really interesting. CNN put out a big, long article
about a vacation destination that has been often neglected by
tourists but now has had a resurgence in tourism over
the last couple of years. I kid you not. CNN

(02:20):
wrote an article about why it is a good tourist
destination to go to Somalia. Now I know you're all
rushing to your computers, calling your travel agents. I got
to book a trip to Somalia, says no one, by
the way, But just to give you some context as
to what the libs are saying, CNN went on this

(02:42):
big whole thing about how Somalia is become a tourist destination.
They start with by saying ten thousand tourists visited Somalia
in twenty twenty four, a fifty percent increase from the
year prior, which, by the way, is not good numbers.
Like we're not It's not like we're talking like a
million people that go to like Hawaii, for example. The

(03:04):
number has doubled, it is increased by fifty percent. Congratulations,
it's still only ten thousand people. Why c and N
are you trying to push Somalia as a tourist destination
upon US. An adventure company called I'm not going to
name the adventure company ran a group of thirteen trips
to Mogadishu in twenty twenty four, compared to just two. Wow,

(03:24):
they're really stepping up their tourist game. Somalia also launched
a new eVisa system in twenty twenty five September twenty
twenty five to simplify jury in case you or your
family would like to take a trip to the third
world hellhole that is Somalia. Now this is all in
spite of the fact that the United States government has

(03:46):
classified Somalia as a Level four do not travel. The
United Kingdom also warns of high threats of kidnapping. L
Shabab middlitants have carried out deadly attacks and Mogadishu since
early two thousand and five, and visitors also must stay
in a secure green zone and travel with armed convoys.
But none of that should deter you from experiencing the

(04:09):
wonder and delight of the third world hell hole that
is Somalia. There's also a humanitarian crisis. Over five hundred
and fifty thousand people have been displaced in twenty twenty
four due to conflict, and CNN calls it climate disasters,
but just bad weather effectively. And by the way, that
actually does matter when you're in a third world hell

(04:30):
whole and the buildings are not to any sort of code. Yeah,
they may actually collapse in a storm. Nearly three million
people have already been internally displaced, and there's a bunch
of piracy concerns and threats to safety in the Gulf
of Aiden and the Indian Ocean. Against all odds, though,
CNN is saying tourism is arising despite a decade of

(04:53):
conflict and active government travel warnings now. They go on
to say why they think travel is re surging. They
think it's extreme travel vacation sinkers. Seekers want variety in
their countries that they've traveled to in pursuit of personal
personal ambitions to reach all nations. They also note that

(05:14):
it's a relative stability in the face of fierce fighting
over the course of the previous decade, Somalia's relatively stable now,
which makes it a fantastic tourist destination. They also mentioned
the political fragmentations mean that well, you actually these places
are very very safe to go to again in Somalia,

(05:35):
but just don't go to any of those other places
in the bad parts of the country. Interestingly enough, some
of the quotes are very funny. Still walking on the
beach felt safe. Okay, I'm not sure that's a good
bar or a standard to take two, but I guess
if that's the only thing that you can say, so

(05:56):
be it. Why am I talking about this? What is
actually going on? Why are there more people visiting Somalia
than ever before? Why has the tourism to Somalia increased
by fifty percent? And why is CNN trying to celebrate
this as if it is a good thing. What is
actually driving it? Because I don't buy the fact that normal,

(06:18):
everyday people are like, hey, honey, you know where I
think we should go on vacation Mogadishu. I think any
sane person who understands the volatility in areas like Somalia
would go. No, I'd rather not. Well, what is driving

(06:40):
the vacationing or tourism or let's just say, travel to Somalia. Well,
there's this video clip that actually might give some insight
into that a population that exists among us maybe the
key and only driver of people visiting some cut one.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
Aleco Salama, Alenco, Somalia, Somalia here in state.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
I always slay, I always slay early morning. Why November four?
I need your vote, I need you Oh oh. Maybe
that's what's driving visiting Somalia. Maybe maybe the fact that

(07:37):
we imported a bunch of Somalians specifically to the Minnesota
Minneapolis area. Maybe those people are just going back to
visit family or to visit the homeland that their allegiance
is actually pledged to. I don't know, CNN. Maybe people
aren't trying to vacation to Somalia. Maybe the fifty percent

(07:59):
increase in travel to Somalia is not avid travelers who
really want to set a personal ambition goal of reaching
all the countries. Maybe it's not people that want to
possibly feel safe walking on the beach. Maybe it's not
folks who are looking for an adventurous getaway. Maybe it's
a bunch of people that we imported into the country

(08:19):
for some reason who are simply returning home to the
country of their actual allegiance and coming back and forth
because we have no standards when it comes to our border.
I don't know why CNN decided to publish this it's
so easily ridiculous and easily mockable. Ten thousand tours is
not a big number, and the increase in fifty percent,
I can almost guarantee you is specifically due to the

(08:41):
fact that a bunch of Somalia now lives here and
they pledge their allegiance to Somali, and they wave Somali
flags when trying to get elected to US public office
and still hold ties to their homeland, which I don't
necessarily think is the worst thing in the world. But
when you try to not assimilate to the culture of
the United States and instead bring the culture of a

(09:04):
third world hell hole here, I don't know why we're
supposed to pretend that that's a good thing. I don't
know if this is a spicy take or not, but
I think the article that I saw when it flashed
up on my CNA headline consider visiting Somalia it is
a great tourist destination was so ridiculous and absurd. I
don't know, we're just curious about it. I think you

(09:24):
would be curious about it too, And furthering the point,
mainstream media at CNN specifically is a laughing stock because
it deserves to be. We got a lot of great
stuff coming up here on Turning Point Tonight, gonna do
an extended talk with Savannah Hernandez show favorite Turning Point
Tonight favorite fan favorite. I would hope gonna ask her
some questions more broadly about what it is that she does,

(09:46):

time to welcome back a show favorite, a fan favorite,
sav Hernandez Savan Hernandez, Frontlines Reporter, Turning Point contributor. First
of all, thanks for getting the memo Glenn sends out.

(11:19):
Producer Glenn sends out a wardrobe suggestion every day, and
clearly we decided to match effectively for today.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
So we're rocking the Dwayne the Rock Johnson. You know
when he has this like Fanny pack. Yeah, that's the
look we went for today, So I hope everybody's enjoying it.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
Uncle the Rock as I call him, because we're sim
Owen and probably related somehow if you go back far enough,
sav so you don't know what we're talking about. Because
it's a Friday, I decided to have a little bit
of fun because well, I don't know, everybody likes sav
and wants to hear from her and wants to know
more about her. So I did this fun thing. I

(11:58):
went to grock elon Musk's X platforms AI and said,
what would be some good interview questions for Savannah Hernandez
and lo and behold it knew exactly who you were
and actually spit out some interesting questions that I actually
would like your take on. First of all, it started
with this bio. Savannah Hernandez often stylized as sav Or

(12:21):
Savannah with one N, is an independent journalist and political
commentator known for her fearless frontline reporting on protests, rallies,
and controversial events, often while lining with conservative perspectives and
emphasizing truth seeking. So, first of all, how do you
like that as an AI bio for you?

Speaker 2 (12:40):
Yeah, I was gonna say AI does a better job
of hyping me than I do. Be right back, I'm
gonna go update my entire bio and just ask AI
to hype me up here. I kind of hate how
good AI is in the modern day, but also thanks,
thanks Grok. I'll take it.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
What also, It continues and says her background, it's journalism
degree from New Mexico State University. Skeptical about that. Not
a big fan of New Mexico State specifically, but you know,
we'll let that slide. Experience with the outlets like info
Wars and appearances on Fox News and news Max, so
it knows the whole thing about you, which is either

(13:17):
very cool or very scary. So there's that this is
actually interesting. I am curious to know this too. I'm
gonna read verbatim from Grock here in asking Savannah some questions.
Frontline reporting also often includes unpredictable, dangerous and ethical type ropes.
Can you describe a time where you had to balance
your personal safety? And we've talked about this quite a

(13:40):
bit in the last couple of days and the want
and need to capture the full story.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
Okay, very professional question that I wasn't ready for thanks Grock,
But yeah, I mean I feel like that's every single
time I go outside at this point. And we've kind
of talked about that extensively, about how left wingers are
now looking at my press badge and viewing the name
Turning Point USA and coming after me for it, whereas

(14:09):
that was really never an issue for me before. I
feel like the left wing has gone crazy and absolutely insane,
as we have all seen. So I want to say, like,
every single time I go outside at this point, I
wear a press badge because obviously I want to show
people that I'm pressed right away, and then once people
are curious as to who I'm press for, they then

(14:29):
go a little bit insane. I think we saw this
best during the No Kings protest, which was the last
time I was in New York. This was a couple
of weeks back. You know, you had people come up
to me and tell me that I was a token
brown person and Charlie Kirk only hired me because of
my skin tone because he found out I worked for
Turning Point USA. So you know, it's always an interesting balance.
And I was actually talking to one of my friends

(14:50):
about this last night because I was like, look there
is a fun line between journalism and activism, and I
do very much like I still love the United States
of America. This is still my country, and I'm focused
on highlighting the issues that do impact me. So how
do I kind of differentiate the personal and then and
also the story. And I think the easiest way to
do that is by simply being there and neutrallly recording

(15:12):
what I'm seeing on the ground and letting people decide
for themselves, which is what I've always done. And then
when the crazies come up to me, I'm like, Okay,
this wasn't me. I was standing here doing nothing. This
is aud y'all. So that's the differentiation there.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
That's super interesting and good to know. I'm going to
characterize this question and not ask the professional state bis it.
But another question that's split up and I'm actually curious
about this, and I'm sure our audience is curious about this.
How do you decide where to go and what to cover?
Because there is a certain amount of you got to
be in the right place at the right time. You
somehow have a knack for consistently being in the right

(15:49):
place and the right in the right time. How do
you do that?

Speaker 2 (15:54):
Honestly, I just feel like God has guided me to
this profession and so he helps me a lot with that.
But also it's a combination between just I feel like
what you know, someone say luck or blessings. The other
thing would be just me following the news cycle and
basically going the opposite direction of the entire media. So
for example, and I would have loved to have been

(16:15):
on the ground for it this week, and I just wasn't.
But Dearborn, Michigan, there was a protest going on there.
I kind of highlighted that to our team. We did
have somebody on the ground for that. The coverage was great,
or the North Carolina ice rates that are currently happening
right now. I want to say that Fox News was
really the only on the ground, big platform that I
saw that's been on the ground and location there. You know,

(16:38):
I have my own mission that I'm on for Frontlines
this week, so I couldn't be at either of those locations,
but typically that's where I would be just the opposite
of where the media is and what the media is
focused in on. Never let them know your next move,
my friends. All Right, that's the mantra, that's the vibe.

Speaker 1 (16:54):
Well, because it I mean, again, peek behind the curtain here,
there's like a process where you got to like be
able to convey hey, I think this is happening here,
and there has to be a lot of trust on
your hunches and your gut effectively, because that's what people are,
That's what the approval process kind of necessitates.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
Right, Yeah, definitely, And you know, turning point has been
great because they have given me a lot of trust.
And also I always say this that my platform belongs
to the American people, and they are oftentimes giving me
a lot of leads and a lot of kind of
tips on what they want to see covered. And whatever
I cover that the American people are interested in usually

(17:35):
goes very viral because again, the American people are interested
in it as opposed to me or you know, like
the mainstream media tries to do force feeding people a
narrative that they're not really interested in.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
So on that line again, another Grock question that I
thought was was pretty interesting basically, and I'm characterizing it here,
is asking how you find the balance between your personal
feelings towards somebody in power and what the story is
and asking them about that question. We've had conversations. I'll
let you tell us about it, because we've had conversations

(18:09):
about Savannah's relationship with actual people who have actual power
and or lack thereof. But you want to elaborate on that,
because I think I think that's interesting.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
Absolutely, and I mean, I think that is again one
of the balancing acts of journalism. One of my main
rules is like, don't be friends with politicians. And I
feel like, you know, it's hard to be though, especially
if you're in DC, like Anna Paulina Luna. I love
Anna Paulina Luna, and I think that when I do
really like somebody, I try to be very honest about
that because unlike the media, and this is why people

(18:41):
hate the media, because they try to pretend like, oh,
we're unbiased. But also, Donald Trump is a Nazi, and
you know, factually everybody hates him. I don't hate him.
Factually the entire nation does though, and maybe you should too,
like that's the entire media and that's why people hate them.
And so I just try to be really honest. I
try to not be friends and buddy buddy with people
that are in politics, and I try to be really neutral,

(19:02):
like even with people who I do like like, sometimes
I feel like I criticize the Trump administration, for example,
more because I like them and because I want them
to do better and be the best. So it's like, Okay,
what do we need to focus on criticizing? Right, because
if something is going well, like absolutely, we're going to
talk about it, We're going to celebrate it. But also

(19:22):
it's like, I'm not here to be a hype man.
I'm here to you know, really highlight and focus in
on what the American people are focused in on. So
oftentimes it's like, Okay, let's take a peek at what
needs needs to be critiqued, what needs to be done better,
and what the American people, again are focused in on well.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
And that was one of the first things. I'm glad
you said it because I was like, I don't know
if this is like a public thing that she talks about,
but one of the first things you told me is like,
I'm not friends with politicians, and I feel like that
is super admirable. I also have felt that sort of
sensibility kind of creep into how I I don't want
to give too many specifics on this detail, but there
was a person that I knew pretty well, that was

(20:01):
with a person that is actually in an elected position,
and for some reason, I don't know if it was
like the the sav mode kicked in, but I said
hi to the person I knew, and like, I don't
think I was rude, but I didn't say hi to
the person I got to go. I gotta go, had
and and and I do I feel like that sense
of responsibility. And I also I wouldn't even call myself

(20:23):
a journalist really, I kind of just am a commentator
on social and cultural and political things. And so I
don't I'm not even getting like the hard scoop on anything,
but I don't know, I like feel that, and I
think that's a that's super important, especially in the day
and age of like genuineness and being able to trust
people with their opinion. So I very much respect that

(20:45):
in all that you do, anything that anything that you
think would be fun for the audience to know about
your line of work that we haven't already touched on.
If not, that's totally fine. I'm just curious. Broadly speaking,
you're like, by the way, O, wait, this is how
this works and nobody knows that's how it works. Again,
if you don't have that writing prepared. I know I'm

(21:05):
throwing this on you feel free, feel like we can
move on to the video section, But I don't know,
you just open floor. Sure.

Speaker 2 (21:14):
I think that a lot of people probably think I
put a lot of prep work into my videos, and
for a lot of them, I do. For you know,
some of the reports, I do like to be really
well researched, so I do put a lot of time
and effort onto that. Like oftentimes when I am reporting,
everything that I'm talking about is off the top of
my head, the statistics, the effects, the timeline regarding like
the immigration crisis in New York for example. Other times

(21:37):
I really do just stumble upon a story, and that
has been some of the biggest stories that I've covered.
For example, when I caught Jackson Hewitt offering fourteen thousand
dollars tax refunds to illegal immigrants in New York, I
just happen to be in the right place at the
right time, and I was outside of Roosevelt Hotel, which
was one of the largest migrant hotels in New York
City at the time, and I was kind of just

(21:57):
walking around observing, using my unication skills to go and
talk to people and see what was going on on
the scene. I'm just a curious person, Joebob, and I
think that's how I found some of my best stories.
They weren't planned. It was simply me being out on
the streets of America and going and seeing what average
Americans are living through. And I think that's why a
lot of my stories resonate with people, because it truly
is what the average New Yorker, the average you know, Angelino,

(22:22):
the average Texan is living through every single day, and
it kind of goes unnoticed by them, right because it's normalized.
I have a lot of friends who live in New
York and I will Actually, this might have even been you,
Joe Bob. I was in California and I was filming
this crazy guy screaming on the street. I don't know
if it was your one of my other friends in California.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
It was screaming on the street. If that's what you're
asking me, I wasn't.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
I can confirm that it was not that time, not
that time, but no, it was just kind of like
I never would have thought to film that because I
live in California and I see this so often. I
see crackheads screaming at little kids so often that it's
normal to me and I would never think to film it,
but you are, and then it goes super viral. So
I think, as well, it's just like, you know, a

(23:06):
new set of eyes, and this is like San Francisco,
for example. The reason why my footage went so viral
with that is because I was like, I'm sorry, is
it not weird to anybody else that people are out
here with needles hanging out of their arms as children
walk past it? Is it normal for you guys to
feel like you were streets or a haunted house and
every single street is scarier than the next as you're
walking down Like is that? Am I crazy? Or is

(23:27):
that just normal for you guys? And so I think
that's what it is. It's like having a fresh pair
of eyes. And yeah, like that's some behind the scenes
that a lot of people might not know.

Speaker 1 (23:36):
Is Yeah, that's super interesting because yeah, I think I
think in certain very deep blue enclaves, a lot of
that stuff, unfortunately, is normalized and people forget, oh, hey,
this is crazy. The fact that we see people shooting
up on the on public transportation is freaking crazy. And
I like that a fresh perspective on ice last thing,

(23:57):
And I'm just curious about your your thoughts on this
kind of culturally and directionally. You've obviously had huge stories
that are very very important and impactful. Also, if I'm
remembering correctly, I think one of the biggest most viral
clips that you have on Instagram is street interviews asking
is it gay to drape date a transwoman? And does

(24:22):
that as a person who wants to see change in
the right direction, does it worry you at all that
sometimes those types of clips, even though they're important and interesting,
get a sometimes bigger viewed viewership than like the super
important hard facts reporting that you do on the streets.
Is that concerning? How do you feel about that?

Speaker 2 (24:44):
I love it. I love that that blows up the
way that it does, and let me explain why it
goes to show that culturally. And keep in mind too
that I put this video out during a time in
which we were told that transgenderism was all the rage
that it really is, you know, and trans women or
you know, men pretending to be women love to say

(25:04):
this all the time during debates. They're like, I'm dating
the exact same men that you are, Sweetie, pointing to
like some beautiful women and the woman's like, uh, okay,
if you say so, guy, And so it was just,
you know, I put this clip out and it went
viral during a time in which the trans nonsense was
being pushed on everybody, and so I actually appreciated that

(25:25):
that is one of my most viral clips, not only
because it's hilarious and I do enjoy, you know, dabbling
in the culture sometimes, but because it showed that the
average man is like, this is crazy. Let's stop pretending
that female penises exist. If you are a man pretending
to be a woman, you're not a woman, Like, you're
just gay. And if you like that, then you're day
and congratulations, that's your sexuality. But let's stop pretending that

(25:49):
you're straight. And it was just men specifically, just being
so truthful and honest and blunt about it, and the
American people loved it. And again it just like cuts
directly through this fake nonsense narrative that we're constantly being fed.
And so I kind of do love when that type
of cultural, more funny video does break through.

Speaker 1 (26:08):
Good. No, that's I'm super appreciative of that perspective that
sometimes it concerns me a little bit of like, hey,
are we really paying attention to the right things. But
that's a that's that is a great perspective to have
on stuff that does go viral. Uh, sav Thanks, I
appreciate getting to getting in your head a little bit,
even though producer Glenn is off in the side pulling

(26:28):
his hair out, thinking, God, I gotta chop that last
part off because it's gonna get banned on YouTube. But
it's okay. The Internet will still see all of this footage.
It's some in some way, shape or form. Saville actually
be back in a couple segments to uh watch some
It's Friday. We're gonna have some fun. We're gonna unseen videos.
The the segment that we do where Glenn pulls videos
from the Internet unseen by us. Sav's gonna join us

(26:50):
to comment on that. TBT ATBSA dot com is the
email address. We will be right back after the break.
Don't go away, Welcome back to turning Point tonight. We're together.
We were charting the course of America's cultural comeback. TBT
ATPSA dot com is the email if you'd like to

(27:10):

ethical standpoint. I have strong feelings and I'm curious to
see what yours are as well. You can also go
subscribe to our YouTube channel where you can leave comments,

Turning Point Tonight YouTube channel on Facebook page, Instagram page,

the social media clips go. In case you miss a
segment of this show, you can find them all there.
I thought this was a really interesting peek into the
culture of how things are done, and I'll say right

(27:53):
off the bat, I wholeheartedly agree with this decision that
has caused some division, especially on the Internet, but again
I repeat myself, the Internet is just constant division all
the time. It came when Natalie Dawson, a thirty two
year old co founder and president of cardone Ventures, fired
two employees immediately after discovering something in their personal life.

(28:18):
What she've discovered is that two of her employees were
having an affair while both were in relationships to other people.
I already said this, I'm not going to bury the
lead here. I wholeheartedly agree with that. There are people
online though, that are not taking the same tone, the
same approach that I have. They've been saying, well, people

(28:38):
have personal lives outside of work, and they should be
able to do whatever it is they want, and what
does that have an effect on their actual work and
what they're doing in the office place. To me, I
say a lot. It tells you a lot about a person,
and you don't want to have a person who has
a chaotic personal life working in the business that you

(28:58):
were working in, because obviously will affect their productivity. Now
I can understand the point of like, well, this is
their personal life, and yeah, that's fine. Their personal life
can be like I like pizza instead of Hamburgers. I
drive a yellow car, which is absurd and somewhat sociopathic
in my mind, but that that's fine, that's acceptable. If
you're going to cheat on your significant other, that actually

(29:22):
will one impact the work that you're doing at the
place that you work and two. Well, it gives you
inside of what kind of person you are the rationale
behind it, she said, if they're going to cheat on
the person they're supposed to spend the rest of their
life with, do you think they're cheating at work? The
answer is yes, even though the podcast hosts decided to

(29:43):
snipe back of this is personal life. Nope, doesn't matter,
don't care, don't buy it. It's bad fire those people.
I'm interested in your thoughts TBTTPOSA dot com. Obviously I
have strong opinions on this, but that's I don't know,
because I think the horror fundamental values that people have
in their personal lives transcend into their work life. And

(30:04):
if that's the type of value and ethic that you
have in your own personal life, what is that going
to say about your work product? Probably not good things.
Another thing that I have strong opinions on, and this
is strictly from a personal basis. So again, I'm very
curious about you and your thoughts TBT at TPUSA dot com.
Whether you agree with this or you're wrong, it doesn't matter.
There's some new THHC laws that are getting run up

(30:27):
the flagpole in the United States legislation. The Trump administration
is talking about this without getting into the specifics of
the laws. There's going to be some rollback in THHC
percentage content percentage in marijuana products. We're talking about weed here.
That's in case you're not familiar with what THHC means.
I assume that you are, but that's what we're talking about.

(30:50):
There has been a lot of statistics being thrown around
of what will happen if this bill gets enacted into
law President Trump signs into law. ABC put out a
bunch statistics. Two point eight billion dollars in the hemp
industry will be threatened for elimination, three hundred thousand American
jobs at risk. Ninety five percent of the market will
be wiped out. One billion one and a half billion

(31:11):
in state revenue taxes will be lost if this passes.
If we roll back our acceptance of marijuana, weed, THHC,
all of those things to which I say, don't care.
I think people abusing and I recognize that's a term
that people think, Oh, you can't use that with weed.
I think you can. I think there are very clear

(31:32):
effects that has on people's lives. I think the downfall
of culture, not predominantly, but in some respects due to
the prevalence of mind altering substances, not only weed but
just really anything at all. Is not worth the advantage

(31:52):
financially speaking that you get from it. You know, it's
not going to decap the economy. Yeah, it's gonna be
tough for people to find different jobs in different fields,
but it is worth it to maintain or at least
try to maintain a culture of people who aren't to
use the phrase mint mom, to use pot it up

(32:12):
out of their mind. I recognize that's a I don't know,
pretty straight edge type term and probably opinion, but that's
just what I think. Let me know what you think.
TPT ATPUSA dot com. Is the rollback of THHC something
that's going to benefit society at the cost of some
of the financial and economic factors, and is it worth
a TBT ATPUSA dot com would love to hear your

(32:33):
thoughts on both of those. We got to take a
quick break because we're trying to get an extended another
segment with Savanna Hernandez. We will be right back after
the break. Don't go away, Welcome back to Turning Point tonight.

(32:55):
We're together, we're charting the course of America's cultural comeback,
generally through the mockery of terrible lib ideas. T atbusa
dot com is the email address if you'd like to
send along your thoughts things. We should be looking at things,
so we should take a harder look at If you
have any criticisms of the show, is okay to be
wrong at TBT atbusa dot com. Also go subscribe to
our YouTube channel, which is growing by leaps and bounds.
You don't want to be the last person that's not

(33:15):
on our YouTube channel. We also do an extra segment
of the show each and every day except for Fridays,
that only airs on our online platform, So go check
us out on YouTube, Rumble, Facebook, Instagram. Just type in
Jobob you'll be able to find all of us everything
that we're doing on social media accounts. By that, there's
not a lot of Joe Bobs out there, so you
should be able to find that fairly easily. I wanted

(33:36):
to briefly talk about this. We'll keep it short and
concise because I want to get Savan Hernandez back on
here to react to some videos that we've never seen
and could possibly get us fired. We don't know, but
this new SNAP benefits program after the government shut down,
there have been some new ways of doing SNAP EBT

(33:57):
welfare effectively for the people that are on that system.
And I think some of the arguments being made should
be known and should be put into proper context. If
you go to one of your lib media outlets, I
believe this is ABC where we're getting this information from,
they will say, how bad and terrible this is. One
point one million people will lose SNAP benefits between twenty

(34:19):
twenty five and twenty thirty four. Okay, hold on ten
years a million people, there's three hundred third. That doesn't
seem like a whole lot. But okay, if you're using
raw numbers, millions scare people. Sometimes it says this eight
hundred thousand able bodied adults will lose benefits. Those are
people under the age of sixty four without dependence, which, okay,

(34:41):
sounds doesn't sound super compelling. It talks about fifty three
percent of eligible adults could exit SNAP within eighteen months
due to work requirements. Okay, you're not making a very
compelling case here as to why this is a bad thing.
So what are the changes that are coming that the
lib media is so disastrously scared about well. Work requirements

(35:03):
age raised from fifty four to sixty four. Oh okay,
so well, that sounds fairly reasonable. If you're under the
age of sixty four, which sixty five is the general
retirement age, and you are able bodied without dependence, you
have to work or at least be trying to find
a job. That seems fairly reasonable. Dependence age threshold could

(35:24):
change from eighteen to fourteen years old. Okay, I guess
that's a little bit of a change. But at the
same time, if you have a fourteen year old, you
can work. If you're an able bodied adult, you can work.
Unless your child has some sort of severe disability, you
can work. That seems fairly reasonable. And also eighteen seems
like a pretty high number that probably shouldn't have been

(35:46):
there in the first place. Exemptions are removed because you
get exempt if you are part of this class homeless individuals,
young adults who've aged out of foster care, and veterans. Now,
the only thing I will accept quibbling with is veterans.
I want to do best by our veterans. I want
to do right by the people that serve this country.
So I can understand a little bit of an argument there,

(36:07):
but overall, all of these things seem thoroughly reasonable. The
case that is being made is look at how many
people will lose their benefits, and the question that actually
needs to be asked is should they have been getting
them in the first place, because for some reason, nobody
ever asks that question. Oh my gosh, this able bodied, single,

(36:29):
twenty seven year old man is gonna lose his food stamps.
Good Oh why did he have food stamps to begin with?
He's twenty seven. He's an agile I would kill to
be a twenty seven year old. I know I'm only
thirty four years old, but my knees are feeling it.
I wish I was twenty seven. And because of that,
twenty seven year old who are able to bodied, people

(36:49):
able to work should have a work requirement at the
very minimum, I think get kicked off altogether. But that's
just me. We're gonna take a break, so we got
some extended time with Hernandez with some videos never before seen.
We'll send you off onto the weekend on a high note.
We will be right back after the break. TPTATPUSA dot
com is the email address don't go well and be
right back. Welcome back to Turning Point Tonight. We're together.

your thoughts, comments, concerns, criticisms, even something that we should
be talking about. I know it's a Friday, so we're
having some fun. We're going to continue to have some

you to go subscribe to our YouTube channel, the Turning
Point Tonight YouTube channel, Rumble channel, all of these social

(37:42):
media platforms is where you're gonna find exclusive content. Not today,
but most days Monday through Thursday. We do an extra
segment of this show that we just can't squeeze in
to the time that we have together because it's so
finite and so fleeting. We have to put it on
the internet because that's the only place that it could live.
So you don't want to miss out. Go subscribe to
the Turning Point Tonight YouTube channel, fit book page, Instagram chain,
all of the things. Just type in j ob o

(38:03):
B you'll be able to find it very very easy.
Sav Hernandez, Turning Point contributor and Frontlines reporter rejoins us
for a segment that we've tried a couple different times.
This is producer Glenn. Now. The risk that we're taking
here is that I have not seen any of these clips.
You have not seen any of these clips. The risk
is that we could get fired because we don't know
what's going on in the sick, twisted mind of producer Glenn.

(38:24):
I have no idea what he's about to show us.
So h we will all collectively watch these videos together
and then I'd love to get your thoughts and reactions
and weigh in on the severity of the cultural impact
of said videos. Again chosen by producer Glenn. By the way,
if you hate emails TBT atpus dot com, just headline it. Uh.

(38:45):
Producer Glenn is either great or terrible. Whatever. First one up,
let's let's just fire away. You start taking care of
a star's I'm marking what is mind frequented areas share?

Speaker 3 (39:02):
This share was promised to my family thirty years ago.

Speaker 4 (39:07):
This is ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (39:09):
Jerry manered the TV just a neflace icon. That's my
girlfriend's account. I saw the log you don't need to
do that food before don't well, don't look at it?
Are you kidding me? What is that? That's that's that's
where I said in here, Hey, Chris is marking his

(39:30):
territory in the apartment.

Speaker 3 (39:31):
That's so weird.

Speaker 1 (39:33):
What the hell is that district?

Speaker 2 (39:39):
Welcome to the absolute state of modern day politics. I
feel like if we wanted to explain what Jerry Manderin was,
that video is actually very educational.

Speaker 1 (39:48):
But but seriously, I hate the fact that one that
was funny, That was genuinely funny, genuinely entertaining some risky moments,
but we'll let it slide. But also, how was that
different than what what's going on currently? Like, can you
come up with any reasons how that's different than what's
going on in Illinois, in California, some detractors will say,

(40:09):
in Texas, but who knows if that's actually going to
stand up constitutionally. How is that actually different?

Speaker 2 (40:15):
No, I mean that's actually how they do it. A
guy just actually puts a blindfold on and they just
like grabs some they like kind of like go like
this on a paper with a blindfold and then that's
how they figure out the districts. That's how they do it,
so you know.

Speaker 1 (40:29):
So here's here's the problem with that theory is that
actually might be more fair than some of the deep
blue states, especially in Chicago, where you've got like this
tiny little thing and then it balloons up over here
when there's a bunch of rural, probably conservative areas, and
then it go tiny thing to get a bunch of
the big metro major metropolitan areas. That's a honest to god,

(40:52):
somebody with a talisman blindfolded probably would actually be more
fair in representing conservative voices, especially in blue state. Any
of the thoughts on that continue.

Speaker 2 (41:02):
On next video p line hit us with it.

Speaker 4 (41:05):
Let's go every fifteen seconds a home is broken into.
That's why you need United Nations Home Security. United Nations
Home Security protects your home exactly how the United Nations
has protected countries since nineteen forty five. Dispatching to your

(41:26):
house a team of highly trained, unarmed observers. Their job
is to watch the burglar and take notes. His every
move is seen and carefully documented. Then our one hundred
and ninety two member United Nations Home Security Council debates
until everyone can agree on an appropriate response such as

(41:47):
economic incentives and if that doesn't work, economic sanctions, and
if that also doesn't work, strongly worded condemnations, and if
nothing else works, we will be full to invite the
burglar to join the United Nations Home Security Council. United
Nations Home Security. There's nothing we wouldn't do for you,

(42:10):
but little we can.

Speaker 1 (42:12):
This is one of those that is funny and also
terrifying because people actually think the United Nations does a thing.
I so, sev I have a bunch of friends in
a lot of different areas of work, and I remember
years ago I was scrolling through Instagram stories and a
friend of mine had posted a picture of the UN
building in New York and said, like, when your job

(42:34):
actually matters. I was like, no, it does it. It's
the UN. What the heck does the UN do?

Speaker 2 (42:41):
Yeah, Joe Bob. Honestly, as I was watching this, my
first initial thought was like, oh, so, the way that
they're actually going to solve this home burglary is by
unlocking the door and then funding more burglars to go
into the house and take more resources from the homeowner.
So actually they were quite great gracious to the UN

(43:01):
in this video to be honest with you, because you know,
the UN is so sinister and did help fund the
mass migration of people into the US.

Speaker 1 (43:09):
So I'm gonna say it's a very charitable take on
the UN. Yeah, all they do is observe and not
actually just make things worse. I think President Trump has
threatened a number of times to just pull out of
the UN, and I can't, like help but agree with
that one hundred percent because also too, what I feel
like the UN does is like it pretends that all
of the countries in the world are they're all the

(43:31):
same and they have equal say, you know, Zimbabwe is
just as important as the United States of America, and
I just I don't know, I can't handle it. And
I feel like the American people gotta like wake up
and go like, why are we funding everything that goes
on in the udy we do?

Speaker 2 (43:49):
I feel like modern day society is like high school,
like everything can kind of be deduced back to and
compared to high school, where you have all of these
groups and clubs that don't actually do anything and have
no real merit in society. And also how is the
majority of anything running in society? Because everyone's actually kind
of an idiot behind the scenes and has no idea
what they're doing. Welcome to the modern day. It's actually baffling.

(44:09):
The older you get and the more people you work with,
and the more organizations like the UN that you look into,
it's like, how is the world running? Like how are
things even operating right now? What's going on?

Speaker 1 (44:21):
I have no idea how anything he's ever done ever
at any point. I at the risk of going on too,
but I think this is actually interesting for the viewers.
So sav and I went to Davos for the World
Economic Forum. I was there to cover journalistically. Sav was
there speaking on a panel because she loves the World
Economic Forum, just kidding. She was doing the hard day
to Gearvis. I don't know if you remember this, but

(44:42):
the whole knock on the World Economic Forum and all
of the people that go to Davos is they say
all of these things that are just so astronomically stupid.
That's it's difficult to like even put it into perspective.
But when we were on the streets again, I don't
know if you remember this or can it can comment
on this. A bunch of the people that we talked
to were there working with you know, the big power

(45:04):
players and talking to them. They themselves were like, I
don't really buy into any of this. I'm just this
is a job. I'm here for a job. And it
seemed like the only people that actually bought into it
were like the hundred people that were inside the you know,
the different forums, and everyone else is just like, yeah,
this is we agree with you. This is crazy and stupid.
Do you remember that? Was that your takeaway?

Speaker 2 (45:27):
Yeah? I feel like at a oh, I mean honestly,
I feel like everyone is aware that the World Economic
Forum is more about how we can make more money
for corporations, how they can survey us even better, and
how we can have less rights, And you know, the
average person sees that and they're kind of like, yeah,
we're just going to pretend that we're here to do
a service for society, but we all know it's really

(45:48):
going on here, the power grab.

Speaker 1 (45:51):
Yeah. Yeah, I'm glad to have not had to go
back because it was called up there.

Speaker 2 (45:58):
I mean, you know, all of their efforts, it's about
climate change, but you work harder. Can you just spray
more nanoparticles into the sky? Bill gates Because it's freezing
in Switzerland.

Speaker 1 (46:08):
There was an interview that I think you did where
some guy was like, look, yeah, global warming is a thing.
Look at there's no snow on the ground. I think
you panned the camera. We should have fomped down that clip.
Pan the cameras, like the whole place is covered in snow.
Like the hell are you talking about? Dude? Oh yeah,
I think we got to time for one more. Let's uh,
let's rock and roll with this unseen clip chosen by

(46:29):
producer Glenn in case there needs to be aspersions cast somewhere.

Speaker 4 (46:45):
So con so.

Speaker 3 (47:10):
Kyle, no, no, then no, stop it?

Speaker 1 (47:38):
Okay, And with that we've all witnessed the last time
producer Glenn will ever be tasked with picking videos, uh
not the.

Speaker 2 (47:44):
Cat videos to close out a Friday.

Speaker 1 (47:46):
Yeah you know, hey, it's Friday. We're going out into
the weekend. And at the risk of being a person
that digs too much into things, how emblematic is our
Housecats with liberals are sometimes nice to have around. Good
coffee is good. I like art. At the same time,
when something is perfectly situated, sometimes the only thing cats

(48:08):
do is just ruin it, And so that kind of
feels like how libs treat the United States of America. Hey,
this nice serene piece of glass is sitting on this table.
It'd be as shame as someone chucked it onto the floor.
I'm gonna get some hate email in the cat TPTTPUSA
dot com if you're a cat lover and would like
to hate me. I am a cat lover as well.

(48:29):
Do you have any thoughts here? You also want to
dig in too much politically to a ridiculous cat video compilation.

Speaker 2 (48:35):
You know what, sometimes the world needs a good cat video.
And if anything, these made me realize I don't ever
want a cat. I was actually considering it. I was
considering it, and then I'm watching this and I'm like,
that is so chaotic, And if I want to deal
with that type of behavior, I can just go to
my regular liberal protest and watch them throw pants in
the street. So, you know, guess, like you said, very

(48:57):
similar vibe going on there. You know, you could just
be standing next to a liberal and they might just
swipe at you and freak out for no reason and
just start having like a like a spaz attack, and
you're like, what's going on? They're like human cats? Oh
my gosh.

Speaker 1 (49:13):
Yeah, I appreciate that insight, and I also agree so
wown't didn't think we'd end the end of the week
on fun cat videos. But Sabernandez, thanks so much for
sticking around. Have a great weekend, Stay warm, stay safe
wherever you're gonna go in the country next Really appreciate
you taking the time.

Speaker 2 (49:31):
Thanks Jo Bob. Always a pleasure being on Turnpoint Tonight.

Speaker 1 (49:35):
Thank you. That's gonna do it for us here at
Turning Point Tonight. Send you off into the weekend on
hilarious cat videos. We will see you next week, same time,
same place on Monday TBT Atbasa dot com. If you'd
like to send hate email, address it to Savrnandez. We'll
send it on over to her as well. Also go
suscribe to our YouTube channel. We'll see you next week.
God bless America.
