Episode Transcript

SPEAKER_13 (00:46):
Welcome to the Daryl McLean show.
I'm your host, Darrell McLean,independent media.
When reinforced tribalism, wehave one planet.
Nobody is leaving.
So let us reason together.
We're going to get right intoit, and I'm going to do
something a bit differentbecause I'm always appreciative
when uh people who support theshow ask for something and ask

(01:09):
me a question.
So first things first, we'regoing to get to the questions of
the people who have been quietlymaking this thing happen.
So the question goes.
Today, the Senate passed a billto rescind tariffs on Brazilian
imports.
Five Republicans joined themajority to vote yes.

(01:33):
The bill probably won't make itthrough House, and if it did,
the president would veto it.
If that happens, what message isour lawmakers sending to the
administration?
So uh there we have it.
And because it's a loyal uhperson who actually has been

(01:53):
supporting the show financiallyfor five years, uh they they get
first dips.
So here's my answer.
When um let me put it this wayfirst things first.
This wasn't a vote, it was morelike a message.
When when five Republicans breakranks in 2025, that's not

(02:18):
subtle, that's not accidental.
That's not, oh, we missed readthe room.
No, that's a political flareshot in the sky saying, we're
tired of carrying the weight ofyour tariff experiment.
The administration lovestariffs, like some broke people

(02:39):
we know love broke down cars.
Loud, messy, expensive, alwaysin the shop, but they swear it
just has to be a classic.
Meanwhile, the rest of Americais looking at the bill.
These senators stepped out andsaid, This isn't classic.

(03:00):
It's just costing us money.
They are saying the quiet thingout loud, tariffs hurt
Americans.
Let's stop pretending Brazil issuffering here.
Brazil is fine, Brazil isgrowing, Brazil is exporting
like it's nothing else.
The people hurting are Americanbuyers, American farmers,

(03:25):
American manufacturers, Americanfamilies already stretched thin.
Tariffs don't punish thecountry, tariffs punish the
people.
And the lawmakers, Republicansincluded, are basically telling
the administration stop callingthese tariffs patriotic when

(03:49):
they're just taxes with a bettername.
I like to basically say they'rejust taxes with the uh public
relations uh representativespinning a narrative.
The d they the the theseRepublicans have actually done
what people have been hopingthat would happen, and they're

(04:11):
drawing a line between realconservatism and performative
populism, which if you get intoideology, they are two different
things.
Old school conservatives, theones who s uh you know actually
study, actually have anideology, actually uh read
books, actually think thatconservatism is a principle that

(04:34):
is unchanging, those people willstill quote Milton Freeman's
from memory.
And they're looking at tariffslike, when did we become the
party of government interferencein the market?
This is supposed to be the partyof Ronald Reagan.
We d we are doing exactly whatRonald Reagan said.

(04:56):
This is supposed to be the partyof William F.
Buckley, this is supposed to bethe party of Billy Goldwater,
this is supposed to be the partyof Georgia Will.
This is supposed to be the partyof Charles Cartheimer.
And these people wereintelligent, they wrote books

(05:16):
about what conservatives is,everybody accepted it.
You can go look and see whatconservatism was then and see
what it is now, and you come toyour own conclusion.
They are drawing the line in thesand now.
Then that's the facil the thethe uh philosophical fight

(05:39):
hiding under this wholemovement.
The five Republicans didn'tcross the Owl because they love
Brazil.
They crossed the Owl becausethey still love conservative,
actual, classical economics.
They still believe inconservative economics, they
still believe in the markets,they still love not strangling

(06:02):
businesses with unpredictabletrade costs.
So their vote said we haven'tactually forgotten who we used
to be.
So they're also saying your vetothreats do not scare us anymore.
No, this one is the spicy part.

(06:23):
Everybody knows the bill won'tpass the Senate.
Or the everybody knows thepresident will veto it.
But they voted anyway, onpurpose, because sometimes the
message is more important thanthe math.
They're sending a littlepostcard to 1600 Pennsylvania
Avenue saying, we're not afraidof your politically, and we are

(06:48):
not afraid of you, your yourpopularity, we are not covering
you anymore economically.
You are getting to lose yourpower because you are a
approaching lame duck status.
And internationally, woo, thatwas a uh foreign policy side

(07:12):
eye.
And uh that it wasn't just aboutuh steel or beef or supply
chains, it was about posture, itwas about the positions, it was
about the perspective.
By voting to roll all thosetears back, lawmakers are
saying, we do not cosign on yourtrade war, and we do we will not

(07:33):
co-sign on your worldview.
They're signaling loudly, nowthat your coalition is basically
dying, we want stability, youwant partnerships, we want
predictability, we want allies,not enemies, and we're tired of
making US policy and moose bangbecause the global economy

(07:54):
doesn't respond to swagger, itresponds to structure.
This was about farmers.
Many American farmers have beentaking uh tremendous pain.
They've been having hits likethey they were having to to
fight Mike Tyson, retaliatorytariffs, crop surpluses with no

(08:20):
buyers, fore markets moving on,equipment more expensive than a
small house.
Lawmakers from rural states,red, blue, are watching family
farmers suffocate quietly,respectively, and painfully.
The vote today was a part of aconcession.

(08:40):
We can't go home and look ourfarmers in the eye if we keep
backing harmful tariffs.
But the biggest message is thiswe're not carrying your
political baggage anymore.
And that is the heart of it.
Lawmakers are telling theadministration, we will not be

(09:01):
the shield for your economicdecisions, especially the ones
that make nice campaign slogans,but bad real-world outcomes.
There was a rebellion wrapped inSenate procedure, a protest
disguised as a vote, and it's awarning dressed up like
bipartisanship.
Nobody expects the bill to makeit to the president's desk and

(09:26):
be signed.
But that's the whole point.
It doesn't have to pass to makea point, it just has to exist.
If I had to put it uh in a cleanway, uh sharp sentences the kind
for um, I guess TikTok orsomething, i i i uh I would have
to pull the closer here.
Your terror strategy is hurtingAmericans, isolating allies, and

(09:47):
breaking the economy.
We are no longer willing topretend otherwise.
Period.
That's it.
That's the message.
And the fact it came from bothsides of the aisle, that means
it tells you exactly where thewind is blowing.
The Republican Party is goingback to being the party of Mitt
Romney.
The Republican Party is goingback to being the party of John

(12:03):
McCain.
The Republican Party is goingback to being the party of Newt
Gingrich because that willactually survive.
They have realized, and I thinkthis is very important, that
just like the Obama coalitiondid not transfer to the

(12:23):
Democratic Party when Obamaleft, the Trump coalition will
not transfer to the RepublicanParty when Donald Trump leaves.
They are telling you it's over.
Thank you for the question.
And thank you for your fiveyears of support to the Darrell

(12:44):
McLean show.
Right back with more.

SPEAKER_12 (12:50):
But there's a reason.
There's a reason.
There's a reason for this,there's a reason education
stucks, it's the same reasonthat it will never, ever, ever
be fixed.
It's never going to get anybetter.
Don't look for it.
Be happy with what you got.
Because the owners of thiscountry don't want that.

(13:21):
You don't you have no choice.
You have the only thing, you'renot in point, benefit.

(15:14):
Nobody nobody's like, don't givea fuck about it.

(15:43):
Nobody seems to nobody seemsnobody seems to care.
That's what the owners count on.
The fact that Americans willnormally remain willfully
ignorant of the big red, white,and blue dip that's being jammed
up their assholes every day.
Because the owners in thiscountry know the truth.
It's called the American dream,because you have to be asleep to
believe it.

SPEAKER_13 (16:04):
I actually love it when my regulars send me
questions because they give mecontent to discuss because I
would like to produce morecontent, and I'm trying to
formulate ideas, and when theyactually give me their idea,

(16:24):
they help me put out morecontent.
So thank you.
I encourage people to keep doingit.
And you know, and this is why.

(16:59):
And I think they proved himright again in broad daylight.

SPEAKER_14 (17:06):
The Senate pulled and I'm gonna tell you why I say
that.

SPEAKER_13 (17:11):
The Senate popped out this little thing about
repealing imports.
Five Republicans jump over thefence joining Democrats, and
they want you and me to believethat that is what actually
happened.
And they just suddenly found aconscience joining Democrats uh

(17:37):
about an issue so they can provetheir bipartisanship.
And I want you to think about itlike this.
Bless their hearts.
Oh, start cheering.
Oh, look at that bipartisanship.
No way.
Five Republicans broke ranks.
No, no, no.

(17:58):
Let me help you out.
It was not bipartisanship.
That was class solidarity, butit was not the class that you
think.
Those senators did not have amoral awakening.
Nobody got visited by the ghostsof the Economic Policy

(18:18):
Institute.
This isn't a fiction, this isn'tuh Mr.
Scrooge.
What happened was simple.
The donor class gotuncomfortable and Washington
adjusts really fast when peopleare holding the checkbook and
they start clearing theirthroat.

(18:39):
Let's break this down slow, likeI am counseling America in a
folding chair.
What just happened in theprevious election that I spoke
about?

SPEAKER_14 (18:55):
You can go back.

SPEAKER_13 (18:57):
The mecha center, the mecha center of American
capitalism elected a socialistby a landslide.

SPEAKER_14 (19:11):
That is what it's about.

SPEAKER_13 (19:15):
They're trying to respond and say, we have gone so
far into this Trumpism that thethe way the Oberton window
swings, because we let Trump doeverything and we didn't hold
him accountable, the Obertonwindow has now become that

(19:37):
extreme.
On the other end, Trump and hispopulism has made us accept
socialism because populism is agateway to socialism.
And everybody who actuallystudies these systems know full

(20:00):
well that these are cousins.
What is not what is populism?
But a form of direct democracy.
What was supposed to be thefoundational principles of
conservatism, representativegovernment.

(20:22):
Because they allow Trump todefine conservatism as if it was
the same thing as populism, theysnuck socialism in the
Republican Party.
And people started to listen towhat Donald Trump said and he
was saying it as a Republican,and they said, Oh, it actually

(20:46):
sounds like I like some of thatsocialism.
Why?
Because he did not call itsocialism, he called it
populism.
Go look up how similar they are,because it's all about what?
Mob rule.

(21:07):
Populism does not mean anything.
This is why it's easy.
Populism is literally whateverthe populace wants.
What is socialism?
The greater good for everybody.

(21:29):
Sacrifice for the greater goodof the most of the people.
Now, let's break this down insomething that I have been
saying for years.
If it is true that sixty percentof uh plus of Americans live

(21:53):
paycheck to paycheck, that's thenumber.
Sixty percent of Americans livepaycheck to paycheck.
If it is true that a largepercent of Americans, somewhere
close to that, maybe even more,do not have one thousand dollars

(22:16):
for an emergency.
Over half of Americans.
If it's true that even half ofAmerica does not have five
hundred dollars, you can call itwhatever you will, it is the gap

(22:42):
is growing so fast, and peoplebecause they let Donald Trump
hijack the Republican Party,Donald Trump was able to say
something that Bernie Sanderswas not able to say, and I don't
understand why they didn'tunderstand why they were setting

(23:07):
themselves up.
Did you not pay attention to allthe studies, m all the polls
that showed people voted forDonald Trump and who was their
next choice?
Bernie Sanders.

(23:29):
Go look at the exit polls, golook at all those stuff and say
when Bernie Sanders did not getthe Democratic nomination,
people picked Trump.
Why?
They were similar.
They're gonna give me what Iwant.
Me, me, me, my stuff.

(23:51):
Different names, same underlyingprinciple.
Now that is that.
So the whole tariff fiasco justshows what is true.
Because when you look at thenumbers, and AOC proved it,

(24:14):
there are people who picked thatthey would vote for Donald Trump
or Alexandrio, Ocasio, Cortez.
Why?
They want to give people whatthey want under a different
name.
So the whole tariff thing isfake.

(24:36):
It's a show, it's a gimmick,it's nothing more than
professional wrestling.
So it's not honest.
It's a game.
Tariffs on Brazil.
Oh, we're protecting America.
No, no, no.
They're not protecting America.
They're not losing any sleep.

(24:57):
Brazil is not losing customers.
You're not watching the price ofbeef or steel or soybeans break
their budget.
You know who's suffering?
American consumers.
American farmers, Americanmanufacturers, American families
who already feel like thegrocery store is a spiritual

(25:19):
trial.
Tariffs are taxes.
Plain and simple.
Taxes don't come with benefits,just headaches.
And now we're at the point whereeven Republican senators who
spent years pretending tariffsfor holy scripture are quietly
backing out of the room like,oh, we uh we have now found out

(25:43):
that this is working.
Folks back home are angry, anddonors are angry.
And the Senate is not sending amessage to the president,
they're sending a message totheir owners.
Alright, Trump is about to be alame duck next year.
We can now get serious again, wecan now quit playing games.

(26:07):
The votes are not about you, thevoter.
The votes are about the peoplewho funded re-election campaigns
and its own supply chains.
It's the same old Carlin truth.
There is a club.
More than likely, you are not init.

(26:28):
You're not even parked in thesame zip code.
The tariff reversal vote, thatwas a board of directors tugging
on the political leash, like,hey, Trump is almost out of
here.
Cut this out.
We are losing money.
And suddenly the Senate moves.
Now when farmers were bleeding,when consumers were hurting,

(26:52):
when small businesses werescreaming, no, nobody listens.
Only when the donors grewrestless.
That's when it became important.
And the the the fight started tohappen.
They protected each other.
You see it hundreds of times onTV, throwing fireballs, talking

(27:15):
about the radical left,far-right extremists, the
border, the economy, socialism,fascism, blah blah blah.
All that is nothing more thanpolitical world wrestling
entertainment.
But behind closed doors, wheninvestors classes say, hey, cut
out the theoretics, we got moneyon the line, now the billionaire

(27:40):
class is told them what to do.
And that's who own this place.
So they lock arms like a choirmembers when when they're trying
to be like the temptations andand harmonize.
All of a sudden, they they careabout the people.
They do.
They're people.
Because the truth, the truththat Washington wants to hide is

(28:03):
Republicans and Democrats bothprotect capital before they
protect people.
They always have.
Carlin saw it years ago.
I was in high school lookinglistening at that.
I have uh yeah, yeah, it's beenit's been some years, and it

(28:23):
still rings true.
The only people who don't see itare the ones who still believe
campaign slogans actually meananything.
And you can't allow yourself tobe fooled.
The veto threats don't changeanything because they knew the
bill was not going to pass.

(28:45):
So now we know that thepresident would veto it.
Now that we know that it's nevergoing to get anywhere, that we
can do a safe vote.
And that's the point.
Because the point was never topass it.
The point was to signal todonors, we tried, we hear you,
we're on your side.

(29:06):
They want to attempt on therecord not to uh be uh partisan.
They wanted to act like therewas some type of political
incense, some smoke withoutfire, a jester, not a
revolution.
The president gets to play toughguy, the Senate gets to play

(29:29):
reasonable, and the donorsalways get to keep their supply
chain comfortable.
That is the triangle.
You always have to look at that.
That's the ecosystem.
And you and me, the ordinaryAmerican, you are the background
character holding the boom bike.

(29:50):
People have to understand this.
The tariffs fights is nothappening in heaven.
They're happening in yourgrocery bills, in your paycheck,
in your rent, and your truckpayments, and your medical
costs.
Every time a politician startstalking about being tough on
trade, what they're reallysaying is I'm about to test how

(30:10):
much economic suffering peopleare willing to tolerate.
Tariffs don't hurt the elites,tariffs don't hurt politicians,
tariffs don't hurt billionaires,tariffs don't hurt hobby uh the
the lobbyists, tariffs hurt theguy running a small metal shop,
the woman driving her kids homewith groceries, the farmer

(30:33):
watching a former competitortake his stuff to the market,
the the uh manufacturer whosecost just went up, the the uh
family whose budget is tighterthan a size of a small shirt on
a heavyweight lifter.
And the Senate knows this.

(30:56):
And the president knows this,and the donors know this, which
is why when the donors said fixit, the Senate said, Yes, sir.
Farmers are still victims.
Again, let me sit with you inthis moment.
No group in the country getsplayed harder or more

(31:17):
consistently than Americanfarmers, the most patriotic
people in the nation, thehardest working, the most
self-sufficient, the leastdramatic, and they make the they
make this whole thing work.
And they take a beating everysingle time politicians want to
flex for an election year.
The tariffs hit soybean farmers,they hit cattle ranchers, they

(31:41):
hit peanut growers, they hitcorn exports, and you know what?
Farmers rarely ever can pray.
They just pray, they plantharvest, and they hold on.
But Washington knows that.
And Washington noticed somethingthis time.
Farmers weren't mad, they wereexhausted, and that exhaustion

(32:06):
is dangerous for incumbents.
So the Senate acted, not out ofcompassion, not because they
learned anything, they acted outof political expediency, they
acted out of fear.
The real message is we're notcarrying your political baggage
anymore.
That is the heart of it all.
Now, the whole point of this isis the tariff strategy is

(32:29):
unpopular, unworkable,unsustainable.
We're done pretending to believein it.
The Senate wasn't challengingthe president, they were Showing
to the donors, it is now timefor them to start distancing
themselves from him andprotecting themselves from the
fallout.
Because when the tariffscollapse and they will,

(32:52):
everybody wants plausibledeniability.
Carlin was right.
It's a big game.
And not only are we not in it,we're not even playing.
Carlin said it's a big club.
And this club is not even a clubanymore.
It's a whole economic ecosystemengineered to keep you dependent

(33:17):
while convincing you you arebeing protected.
Wake up, people.
You are not being protected.
You are being managed.
You are being marketed to.

(33:49):
They're the fuel.
They're the sacrifice.
They're the background labor ofa political economy that only
pays attention to you when thepolls drop low enough to trigger
panic.
But there's power in seeing thegame clearly.

(34:09):
You don't mistake this fordespair.
Clarity is power.
Truth is liberation.
Carlin gave the anger.
I try to give you uh counsel oranalysis and historical context.

(34:31):
So you can see that it's uh a abig historical system.
Once you understand how the macthe mechanics of the machine
work, you can stop blamingyourself on the outcomes and you
can start uh you could you canuh somewhat start feeling like
you're supposed to feel.
Like uh not like you're failingwhen the system is broken.

(34:56):
You could stop participating inthe political theater that was
never written with you in mindto be anything more than the
cogs in the machine that makesthis thing work.

SPEAKER_10 (35:12):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_13 (35:15):
So uh I I'm actually gonna I want to do a whole show
about this.
Uh personally, but I but I hadto talk about uh something else
put out uh that broke.
And I'm gonna I'm gonna get intoit.
And uh I'll just say this.

(35:36):
The Senate didn't vote to saveAmerican everyday people today.
They voted to save the Americansystem.
And that system, just like uhGeorge Carlin said, it's a big
game being played, and we're notinvolved.
We're not involved.
I I I challenge people to dosomething radical.

(36:00):
I want you to go with some ofyour friends and have a game
night.
And I want you to play the gameMonopoly and see how hard it is
in a game to to to pick yourselfup by your bootstraps when
somebody monopolizes the entiresystem.

(36:24):
I want you to do that and thentry to apply that to real life,
and then I think you will startto see how difficult it is,
because it's a game.
But it's a game based on reallife.

(36:46):
I'll be right back with more uhon the show.
I have to get some order, causethis next topic, it deserves all
my full attention, and um we wegotta we gotta talk about it.

SPEAKER_19 (37:00):
Quote, release the Epstein files.
No, it's not just HouseDemocrats saying that.
Now it's apparently DonaldTrump, too.
In a stunning reversal,President Trump is telling
Republicans to vote to releasethe files.
Why?
Well, because quote, we havenothing to hide, he says.
He still calls it a Democratichoax and says that the oversight
committee can have whatever theyare legally entitled to because
he doesn't care.
He just wants to focus on theeconomy.

SPEAKER_04 (37:22):
So take it together.
Let's let it look at it, letanybody look at it.
But don't talk about it too muchbecause honestly, I don't want
to take it away from us.
It's really a Democrat problem.
The Democrats were Epstein'sfriends, all of them.
And it's a hoax, the whole thingis a hoax.

(37:43):
And I don't want to take it awayfrom really the greatness of
what the Republican Party hasaccomplished over the last
period of time.

SPEAKER_13 (37:50):
So let me go ahead and say why that's belonging.
This is why.
If the Republican Party knew theentire time that there was a
group of pedophiles and theystrategically only happened to

(38:10):
be people from the oppositionparty, it would have been
released a long time ago.
Do you re they it would haveleaked?
Do you really think looking atpolitics and all the leaks and
everything, they would have gavea good gosh darn about any of
those damn victims?
No.
Why not?

(38:31):
Because they don't give a damn.
They don't give a if they don'tgive a damn about you and and
and you not having any money,and they don't give a damn about
those girls.
Why?
Because the elite wanted them,and the elite get what they
want.

SPEAKER_19 (38:48):
So maybe the change of tune is because Trump saw the
writing on the wall on this.
Republican Thomas Massey hasbeen leading the charge for this
vote.
Now you tell CNN that support isgrowing and that he is skeptical
about Trump's about face there.

SPEAKER_07 (39:01):
Well, he got tired of us winning, and he decided to
join us.
Um look, they could have donethis four months ago, and
instead they fombus every bit ofthe way.
But we're, you know, a littlebit suspicious of this sudden
turn of events, so we'll keep aneye on things.
We're worried that maybe they'lltry to muck it up in the Senate.
I think it's going to be a verybig vote.
I think we'll get at least aveto-proof majority.

SPEAKER_19 (39:35):
Thomas Trump didn't want to be able to see how much
release.
Then he's sort of probablysaying, well, just release the
model, also saying, Well, onlyinvestigate the Democrats in the
conversation being aboutRepublicans and Democrats
because to me it's just so muchabout my and the ways that we as
a country, as a society, andinstitutions have failed these

(39:57):
victims.

SPEAKER_20 (39:57):
I think it's going to be very helpful for those
victims to be the president ofthe United States refer to the
money as a hoax.
I urge people watching to go andlook for this PSA and some of
those victims when I have aweek.

SPEAKER_19 (40:10):
Let me just play a little bit.

SPEAKER_09 (40:14):
I'm 14 years old.
I'm 16 years old.
16.
17, 14 years old.
This is me.
This is me.
This is me when I met JeffreyUpstead.
This is me when I meant JeffreyUpstein.
It's time to bring the secretsout of the shadows.
It's time to shine a light tothe darkness.

SPEAKER_20 (40:30):
So that's very much Manahoa.
It's it's very real.
It has ruined the lives andscolm those women for the rest
of their lives.
You know, I think collectivelywe've got to stop fighting about
this being Democrat orRepublican.
This was a bunch of rich men whofelt entitled to do whatever the
hell they wanted and publiclyget away with it.
And then almost did.

(40:50):
But before the Meet Too movementin 2017, and before the Miami
Hills say that July came, thetruth is shamefully.
The truthfully was one of hisway to being accepted and being
in respectable society.
So these women deservetransparency, they deserve
closure.
I do think tomorrow's vote'sgoing to be huge.

(41:11):
I have called upon and textedsome Republicans that I know
asking them to vote yes, andthey have all told me these
among people who usually votewith Trump 100%, they've all
told me they were voting yes, soI do think it's going to send a
very strong message.
Anna makes a really importantpoint.

SPEAKER_13 (41:23):
You know, why is it that I I I agree with that 100%.
And what makes this extremely uhimportant is Anna Navarro uh was
somebody who was a Republicanlonger than Donald Trump was,
but her entire life as aRepublican.

(41:44):
Donald Trump has been a Democratlonger than he was a Republican.
She left the Republican Partybecause of Donald Trump and says
she's still a type ofRepublican, but she is a never

(42:04):
Trump Republican.
So she basically codes as anindependent which the party is
going to move back to her.
So the the the code is out nowthat people like Adna, now we're
going to be listening to peoplelike Anna Navarro, who is going
to be saying the same thing thatyou could go look at the view

(42:27):
because she was saying it foryears.

SPEAKER_19 (42:31):
That Trump, if he says whatever, I mean, does he
have something to hide?
I don't know.
No one knows.
But putting that all aside, whycan't he see this for what it
is, which is a very real thing,not a hoax, with real victims
and with a lot of peoplepotentially involved in
something, and none of whom havebeen held accountable.

SPEAKER_08 (42:44):
Well, the hoax is Democrats and others who have
gone on television and eitherimplied or worse that he had
something to do with it.
There's not a tremendousevidence that he had anything to
do with it, but that's what theywant people to believe.
That's the narrative that theywere trying to get up against
the hoax.
He's never said that whathappened to them as a hoax in
fact.
There seems to be sometremendous evidence in here that
Trump may have been one of thepeople that joined him.
Umsting, which is oneinteresting according to some of

(43:05):
the documents, apparently hatedthe Trump.
The hopes is not independent.
The hoax is what people aretrying to implement according to
the documents.

SPEAKER_19 (43:12):
The truth is some kind of independent on them.
I mean I don't know that we knowanything about Trump's
environment.
But I do know that he is namedin these documents.
I do know that he is named in away that is that raises
questions.
Um that that is something thatis real.
Doesn't mean that he actuallydid something wrong with that we
don't know.
But if Trump has nothing tohide, and he's totally entitled
to say that, to believe that, heshould be clamoring for these

(43:35):
documents for the full contextto be released, but he's not
doing that.

SPEAKER_13 (43:37):
So you And I want people to think about this.
So first off, um I don'twhatever that last guy is,
you're gonna see in this clipthat it does not matter.
Everything he says is gonna beonly a tax on people who are not
in his party.
He's a part of the problem.
He does not want to solve theproblem unless the problem only

(44:02):
indicts people on the otherside.
That is nothing more than puretribalism.
I won't and and that's the partof the problem.
People pretend like they havemorals and values, pretend like
they care about, I don't know,trans rights or some some other

(44:22):
such nonsense.
They pretend like they careabout uh uh gays, they pretend
like they care about and andthey they have the moral high
ground, and they always don'tget taken seriously by people
like me because they miss thelow-hanging fruit of pedophilia.

(44:44):
You were accusing for years thepeople who uh who were gonna had
these predilections, they weregonna be gay.
That's that was the big thingwhen I was growing up.
Only gay people, you can't letgay people do this because
they're gonna molest children.

(45:04):
And meanwhile, it turns out thatthe massive pedophile sex ring
was the elites.
The elites for years.
Mumbling silence.
You can't get them to say amumbling word about the morality

(45:28):
of the people on their side.
That these people were so bravewhen it wasn't anybody on their
team.
Go back and listen to what theywere saying in the 90s and
listen to what they're sayingnow and see that they're not
serious.
When I was growing up, RickSantorum was the Republican

(45:49):
Party.
I don't know who these peopleare.
When I was growing up, uh um iit it was it was the Republican
Party was identified in such away, uh Rush Limbaugh, Bill
O'Reilly, who I like to say hewas an independent, uh Neil

(46:09):
Bortz, Michael Savage, and uhwho else was it?
Michael Savage, Herman Cain, andum that that was basically who I
grew up listening to.
My brain itself was soright-wing coded because I was a

(46:30):
um firm listener of AM radio.
I grew up not knowing what I waslistening to, so my brain
programmed itself to be moreconservative.
I know what conservatism is.
It was my foundational rootsfrom the moment I got a radio
all the way through middleschool, all the way through high

(46:50):
school.
Right wing, right wing, rightwing, hard right wing,
neoconservative.
I used to listen I used tobelieve Bill Crystal was right.
That was my conservatism, DavidBrooks, uh uh that you know,
etc.
etc.
I was to the right of uh Attilathe Hun.

(47:14):
And so then you I think I say itbefore, I voted for George Bush
when everybody uh was voting forJohn Kerry.
It's the first time I ever gotto vote.
Right?
I lived to regret that votebecause I put my feet where my

(47:34):
vote was and I joined the UnitedStates military.
And when I went to the MiddleEast, I said what everybody
says, what the fuck are we doinghere?
And that's when my mind changed.
And here was the problem.
At that point in time, I justsomewhat had an associate's

(47:56):
degree.
If I figured out they had noproblem being there and I wasn't
even finished with school, thenI know for a fact these highly
educated people from Yale andHarvard have to know.
I know it.
They wanted to be stupid.
They get paid to be stupid.

(48:17):
The truth of the matter is theyknow the the the whole game is
they're trying not to give thegame away that the rubes by the
time they figure it out,everybody's gonna have their
money.
Shouldn't the formulation forconservatism by its very nature

(48:41):
be if something doesn't work youdon't do it?
Shouldn't the formulation forconservatism be well that's kind
of their business.
We take care of our own stuff,you know, yada yada yada.
Conservatism, I watched it as iti it it um it changed every

(49:05):
election.
George Bush is not John McCain.
Uh John McCain is as differentthan than George Bush.
And you can go back, you know,he's he's gone now.
You can go back and look at thedebates.

(49:26):
Different, different people.
The second somebody won, what itmeant to be a conservative
changed.
Right?
He lost.
He lost, and then what happens?
Mitt Romney gets a chance.
Mitt Romney is different thanGeorge Bush, different ideology,

(49:47):
different than uh different thanthe uh previous one, uh the late
John McCain.
He's now the definer ofconservatism.
Completely different ideology.
They wrote books when they ran.
You can go read it.
It's old now.
We should be past it.
Do the research.
It's w it's rec it's it's i it'srecent history.

(50:10):
Go do it.
It's easy.
Go get it.
You don't want to read it?
Go buy it on Audible.
Listen to it at blah blah blahblah speed.
Make it be done to it in a fewhours.
You tell me that's the sameparty.
That doesn't work, he loses.
The standard bearer becomes who?

(50:32):
Donald Trump.
Donald Trump is as differentfrom he's not George Bush,
different ideology.
He's not John McCain, differentideology.
He is not Mitt Romney, differentideology.
He has democratic ideologybecause he was a Democrat when
all those people wereRepublicans and they were

(50:52):
losing.
So the person that had to teachthe Republicans to win spent his
life as a lifelong Democrat.
And Republicans did not stick toprinciples.
They did what they always do.
Democrats fall in love.

(51:13):
Republicans fall in line.
And if you don't believe me andyou doubt what I'm saying, go
look at the ideology of thestandard bearers.
See how they changed, and seehow the one standard bearer now,
Donald Trump, dumps on theprevious standard bearers, and

(51:35):
the Republican Party did notdefend them.
The same people that they wantedto be their standard bearers,
they let get thrown under thebus.
John McCain's a war hero.
Love the troops yadada yada.
And right until a troop, uh oneof the most decorated, is

(51:57):
running against Trump.
Now all of a sudden he he candenigrate him.
So I'm sorry.
Donald Trump will leave and Iwill believe in forgiveness.
I I will believe in redemption,but your credibility will take a

(52:18):
long time for me to take youseriously again.
I I I will say, you know what?
I'm gonna still listen to whatthis person says only because I
know that they have a greatcapacity to not be consistent,
to be wrong, but I'm gonnalisten to see if they actually
stick to fundamental principlesor if they put their finger in

(52:41):
the air and go along with thewind and then call themselves
that conservatives.
You're not conserving anythingif it changes every time you
have a standard bearer.
Yeah, conserving anything.
You have always been, alwaysbeen populist.

(53:01):
You just called it conservatism.
I hope I hope we're starting toget that here.

SPEAKER_08 (53:07):
So you believe after 10 years of this, of him being
on the public stage, that ifthere was something to know, we
wouldn't know it.
But I now look, the issue is.

SPEAKER_19 (53:14):
I mean, you can make that argument about every single
person who's implicated in thesedocuments.
Okay, that is not a legitimateargument.
You just read the key.
Every single person may or maynot be implicated.
The argument is if there wassomething to know, we would have
known it.
If there was something to know,yeah.
I mean, it's in the documents.
And people know what it's theissue.

SPEAKER_08 (53:31):
You use the word implicated.
If someone's name appears inthese documents, it doesn't
necessarily mean they didn'tmean wrong, but I'm sure that
it's going to lead people tosay, oh, they've been
implicated.
And so we'll we'll see whatcomes in the way to be able to
do.

SPEAKER_20 (53:43):
Something criminal.
Just the fact that um havingemail exchanges um does not mean
that they've been somethingcriminal.
I do think it is wrong.
The reason I think it's wrong isbecause by the time that we the
emails that we were seeing inthe scroll that was released um
from um 2019 and 2018 and 2016,13 months of us from the hundred

(54:07):
early for one, after they havesome of the one of the house of
months, after they had one justto have a sex of London.
And so these people, but not bythe very same argument.

SPEAKER_19 (54:52):
You're you're basically saying if you're named
in these documents, I guessyou're saying that they should
make a number.

SPEAKER_03 (55:24):
So easily gets you raised and eliminated because
integrity and honesty pushedaside.
And what is wrong?
So easily gets you raised andeliminated because integrity and
honesty and decency gets pushedaside and become just a partisan
matter of Democrats versusRepublicans.

(55:45):
We know that gangsterism ispromiscuous.
It will lie with Democrats,Republicans, independent,
leftist center, right ChristianJews, Catholics, Muslims, it's a
human thing.
And we have so many layers ofcorruption now, so many levels
of outright lives that theissues of what is right and what
is wrong has no footing at all.

SPEAKER_11 (56:08):
And the church said, Amen.

SPEAKER_03 (56:10):
You know what?
I know it.
Look at your talk common sense.
That's Thomas Paine, brother.
You invoke Thomas Paine.
He's a foe of tyrants, a foe ofautocrats, and a foe of.

SPEAKER_13 (56:22):
And I and I like uh what Cornell West says because
we have the same type of uhideological approach.
You don't have to believe what Isaid.
He just told you to go back andread what Thomas Paine said.
Now, just for the record, youknow, uh who Thomas Paine is,
Thomas Paine was one of thepeople who was practically the

(56:46):
silent founder of America, oneof the silent founding fathers.
You should go look that up.
Thomas Paine wrote books thatthe founders ended up using
themselves to to make this thingwork.

(57:07):
And so, because sometimes whenwe understand things, we have to
get further away from them inorder for them to make sense.
I'm going to uh do this for you,okay?
I d I know I I'm I know I I havea I have a philosophy that says

(57:29):
it is not my job to do work forpeople.
And then I realized, you knowwhat?
Damn it.
I talk uh for for uh for aliving.
I'm gonna amend myself and I'mgonna start to make it my job so

(57:49):
that you can always I'm gonnadie one day, alright?
That's why I make all this stufffree.
That's why I already have set upto when I do die, the the
program moves to archives.
And the archives will be thereforever so that one day somebody
will stumble upon it.
Because uh and then uh you'llknow where where do I start?

(58:14):
Where do I start?
Uh uh uh w what would uh whatwhat should I do?
And so uh um when I when I uhI'm gonna have to do the work
for you by letting you lettingme describe books to you uh uh

(58:37):
so I can give you my analysis onit.
You know, and in the hopes thatone day you'll stumble upon it.
Because uh that you you talkabout the foundation of the
country, but you don't know themoral underpinnings of the
country, that's a you thing.

(58:58):
I w that's 100% what I believe.
But if I know that you don'tknow, and I'm the sort of
educator, and I'm refusing togive you the knowledge, that
becomes a me thing.
And so I I uh I literally havegotten so frustrated because I'm

(59:20):
trying to pull people all thetime from the abyss.
I'm trying to pull people fromtheir partisan hackery, and I'm
trying to tell people you knowwhat you believe.
Are you so confident in yourbeliefs that you are willing to
have your opinions challenged?
And if you are not so confidentin your belief that you are not

(59:43):
willing to have your opinionschallenged, you do not have a
belief that is worth thethought.
You have an ideology that youhave decided you need to be so
rigid that you cannot allowother information to get in
unless they change your mind.

(01:00:04):
You are displaying nothing morethan a moral and intellectual
cowardice, and you arebarricading yourself by the uh
herd of independent minds.
That's that's the irony of itall.
It's the irony of it all.

(01:00:24):
Okay?
Do you think you know something,you think you know what you
know, you think your positionsare true?
Listen to other people tell youwhat they believe in a long
form.
And shut up.
Then you'll see if yourpositions are actually true.
So let me amend myself for youguys.

(01:00:47):
You've changed my mind because Icare.
And I care so much about thiscountry that I'm gonna do what I
don't want to do and do the damnwork for you.
Thomas Paine the most importantbooks that I think we should
read was one was called CommonSense.

(01:01:07):
That was written in 1776.
That is the pamphlet that helpedspark the American Revolution, a
bold blueprint written fromordinary people.
He basically told the coloniesto stop being scared and to
break up for Britain.
Then he wrote a book called TheAmerican Crisis.

(01:01:28):
Now that was in 1776 through1783, a series of essays written
during the Revolutionary War.
This is where you get the famousline These are the times that tr
that uh try men's souls.
Washington held these readalouds to the troops to keep
morale alive.
Then he wrote Rights of a Man.

(01:01:51):
That was from 1791 to 1792, andthat was a defense of the French
Revolution and a smackdown tomonarchy and inherited power.
The book made him a hero to thereformers and the enemy of the
British elite.
Then he wrote a book that madehim son of grata, and that was

(01:02:12):
called The Age of Reason.
And that was in 1975 uh 1794 touh 1795, his most controversial
work.
Why?
Because it was a critique oforganized religion, it was
arguing for reason for deism andmorality without church

(01:02:35):
authority.
So guess what?
They loved him and all thoseother things.
And then Christians hated it.
Diaz loved it, and it prettymuch killed his public
reputation.
They tried to write Thomas Paineout of history, and if you have
never heard of him, theysucceeded.

(01:02:55):
Then he wrote a book calledAgree Injustice, and that was in
1797.
It was way ahead of his time.
Paine argued for a taxinglandowners to fund payments for
the poor and the elderly, anearly vision of Social Security.
Then he wrote a book called TheRights of a Man.

(01:03:16):
Again.
And this was uh called this issometimes called the Private
Letters to George Washington.
This was a his angry personalcritique of Washington for
abandoning him during therevolution.
Now, I have just done the workfor you.

(01:03:36):
No analysis really, so you canjust go back in time one day.
If you you say you want to youlove America, you say you're
patriotic, you you care aboutthe foundation of the country,
go read one of the damn foundersthat was written out of the
country.
Because the bottom line is this.
If you are scared of that,common sense, if you are uh

(01:04:00):
tired of the American crisis, ifyou are angry at injustice, you
should probably go back to thefoundation and read Rights the
Man.
If you are questioning the ageof reason, if you're thinking
about the poor, Argaryinjustice, if you are learning
the cause of truth, read theletters.
Thomas Paine isn't a historian,project.

(01:04:23):
He was a spiritual workout forthe modern mind.
And that's why you do it.
Got it?
Got it.
Now we know.
Don't d you you want to see whatthe founding fathers thought?
Go read where they got theiractual ideas from.
Now that I did your homework foryou, it is up to you to do the

(01:04:49):
work.

SPEAKER_19 (01:04:50):
Bluming on this, on whether or not he would support
the vote and the release of thedocuments.

SPEAKER_21 (01:04:54):
So, first of all, I think some documents that named
him that came out last weekactually he came off looking
pretty good.
Like he didn't like how JeffreyEpstein was behaving and he cut
off ties with him.
I'm sure that's a good thing.

SPEAKER_19 (01:05:05):
That's what the documents said.
The documents said that JeffreyEpstein didn't like Trump, which
we know, but they also had afalling out much earlier over
essentially real estate inFlorida.

SPEAKER_21 (01:05:15):
It's unclear what it was exactly over, but he did
learn that Jeffrey Epsteinreally didn't like him, and
that's what sort of the trendwas in this document.

SPEAKER_13 (01:05:21):
That is a crock of BS.
You can go look it up yourself.
The fallout about the realestate deal was not about
anything that Trump always says.
It's already out.
It was because Jeffrey Epsteinaccused Trump of money
laundering.
And because Jeffrey Epsteinwanted that place, Donald Trump

(01:05:45):
wanted it, Jeffrey Epstein wasmore than likely, remember, more
than likely, a part of anintelligence agency.
More than likely, JeffreyEpstein was an asset of Mossad.
Massad is the Israeliintelligence agency.
So Jeffrey Epstein would haveknown things before Trump knew

(01:06:08):
them because Trump had was not,as far as we know, a part of an
intelligence agency.
So Jeffrey Epstein accusedPresident Trump of money
laundering and and saying thathe was only trying to get that
house because he was going togive it to a billionaire.

(01:06:30):
Everything I say here, I say itbecause you can go look it up.
It's already proven.
And guess what?
Jeffrey Epstein was right.
Because Donald Trump got thehouse from under Jeffrey Epstein
and sold the house to guesswhat?
A Russian billionaire.

(01:06:52):
So when people used to yellabout Trump and Russia, Russia,
Russia, Russia, Russia, itwasn't all smoke and mirrors,
but because people are partisanhacks, they didn't want to look
at the facts.
You want to go look at thefacts, then you'll see why Trump
and Jeffrey Epstein really splitup.
But Trump does not want that tobe out because Trump wants to

(01:07:14):
pretend like, oh, it's because Ithought he was a creep.
No, it's because Donald Trumpwas in debt so much to the
United States of America.
The only banks that would giveDonald Trump money were Russian
banks.
Now we've had it been released.

(01:07:35):
We all seen it.
Year after year after year,Donald Trump was losing money in
America.
And because of the United Statestax system, he lost so much
money that American taxpayerskept funding him while he was
getting money from the Russiangovernment.

(01:07:58):
See what I'm saying?
You get what I'm saying?
This is why I'm doing this onetopic shell here.
Because guess what?
Donald Trump was the model.
He failed his way to success,not because of anything he did,
because of governmentinstitutions propping him up.
So it is what Martin Luther Kingsaid.

(01:08:19):
It is socialism for the poor.
And I'm doing this right out ofmy head.
Martin Luther King said it issocialism for the rich.
And pick yourself up by yourbootstraps for the poor.
If you want to read what MarthaKing thought about this, put it

(01:08:41):
next to Thomas Paine, and seewho was actually more in line
with them with uh with uh theAmerican values, then I'm gonna
do this for you.
Because these books are cheapnow because these people have
been long dead.
You go and get Martha King'sbook called Where Do We Go From
Here?
Chaos Our Community, that'sMartha King's book on economics.

(01:09:05):
Put that next to the FoundingFathers book about economics and
see who was more aligned withwhat the American Foundation was
actually about.
That's the challenge.
Read Thomas Paine's economicbook and then pick up Martha
King's book after.
And think about what you knowtoday of what Americans want and

(01:09:29):
see who was more aligned.
That's the challenge.
You you you believe in your yourideas are correct?
Do the work.
Let's get back to the this thinghere, whatever this this is.

SPEAKER_21 (01:09:43):
I think also, you know, Trump is very good at
reading his base.
And I have to say, I thinkthere's a real divide here
between the voter base and thenthe online content creator of
the creators of the right.
Those people are obsessed withJeffrey Epstein.
And a lot of Republicanlawmakers are very much
enthralled to this onlineenergy.
But the actual voting base, Ithink they really don't care
about that.

(01:10:03):
They care about immigration andthey care about affordability.
And I think Trump felt that thisis now gonna waste a whole week
talking about this thing thatis, you're right.
It's important to talk about it.
Justice for the victim, ofcourse, is extremely important.
But a lot of people get caughtup in that dragment.
Alan Dershowitz is a perfectexample.
He's a person who was named byone of the victims, and she had
to recant, but he never got hisreputation back.
And so I think the question isto make the Jeffrey.

SPEAKER_13 (01:10:27):
Ugh, yuck.
And this is why that's a crockof shit.
Because i if you go look at howDonald Trump won the election,
it was all about trans, trans,trans, trans, trans, trans,
trans.
Now go look at how many peopleare in America.
I'm gonna I you know what?

(01:10:48):
The hell with it.
I'll I'll do it for you.
The the amount of people who aretrans in the United States of
America is less than two percentof the population.
Less.
But guess what?
They c it Donald Trump made themajority of Americans get so uh

(01:11:12):
focused on less than two percentof the population that he won.
So no, no, no, no, no, no.
That dog won't hunt.
Period.
You ran on something that was sosmall because you knew that

(01:11:32):
American people would would uhtake it.
They'd sniff that oh, they justwanted to be a part of that.
You ran on uh trans people incollege sports.
Now go look it up for yourself.
Go look it up for yourself.
Uh uh over five uh about fivehundred thousand or so athletes

(01:11:54):
inside of curr the uh NCAA.
The number of trans athletesless than twenty.
An entire election mood ontwenty people.
Don't tell me that the old D isjust reading the base.

(01:12:14):
Nope.
Nope, he's manipulating thebase.
So if you don't believe me, golook at the numbers yourself.
But I'm gonna do something foryou.
I'm gonna do the whole work foryou.
Because my next thing I'm gonnaput is I'm gonna do an entire
show about that issue.

(01:12:35):
And then challenge me on it.
Go look it up for yourself andsee if my analysis holds up and
stop being rude by rubes.
You you believe it?
Challenge yourself to unbelieveit by seeing the numbers.
You got manipulated.

(01:12:56):
It's over.
He won.
You can tell the truth now.
You got manipulated.
Come back, come back.
I I I want you to be in truthland.
It is not my desire that anybodyperish.
You have to come to the light.
But in order to come to thelight, you have to repent.

(01:13:16):
Repent.
And let's get back on the rightroad.
You can't just keep doublingdown.
All you're doing is lying.
While you're calling yourself aChristian, you're doing the
you're breaking the the one ofthe easy ones to remember.
Thou shalt not lie.
Period.
You got more loyalty to God?

(01:13:38):
You got more loyal to tr loyaltyto Trump.
Because the evidentiary recordthat you have provided me over
this long period of time is youhave more loyalty to power.
And now that's on you.
My the standard that you claimto have, that you claimed that
was unchanging, on the Bible,yum, yum.

(01:14:00):
And I sit back and I watch, hadyou change it.
Year after year after year afteryear after year after year after
year, when it's only politicallyexpedient.
I don't take you seriously.
I take you seriously as a human.
Take your ideas, I don't takeyour ideas seriously.
I listen to them to see ifyou're trying to get someplace

(01:14:22):
to seriousness and welcome you.
But you gotta grow up.
It's grown-up time.

SPEAKER_20 (01:14:29):
There's three Republican women, uh, Nancy
Mays, Lauren Bober, MarjorieTaylor Green.
I'm not a fan of any of them.
However, those women I think arenot looking at this through a
political prism.
I think they're looking at thisas women.
Because we all know that beforeme too, um, a lot of people
thought it was okay to sexuallyharass women and to sexually
abuse women.

(01:14:49):
Particularly if you were richand empowered and entitled in
this country and get away withit.
It's not just Jeffrey Epstein.
A bunch of Jeffrey Epstein's andrich men, that's what he was
coming to.
Another person that I gave a manaccommodated to.

SPEAKER_19 (01:15:58):
And he's reminding them who's boss.

SPEAKER_05 (01:16:01):
Mega was my idea.
Mega was nobody else's idea.
I know what Mega wants betterthan anybody else.

SPEAKER_19 (01:16:05):
And Mega wants to see a company drive one person
not traveling that line is TimCruz who has gone on and public.
With some of them coming forwardto defend Carlton under free
speech rounds, and othersaccusing him of elevating a

(01:16:27):
corner of the money.

SPEAKER_05 (01:16:31):
We mentioned great interviews with Dr.
Crumbs.
But if you want to demonstratethem, let them, you know, people
have to decide.
Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_19 (01:16:46):
People have to nominate.
Thank you, Mr.
President.
Now, there's growing speculationthat Ted Cruz is actually taking
up a number one for president.
He threw some cold one on thespeculation today, but many of
you cruise to have with Carlsonand the job vice president.
J.D.
has a closing Carlson's.
And someone who's seen as thefront runner of the Republican
ticket in 2028.
And someone as as you have spenttime with Trump and about his

(01:17:09):
politics, he is not going to bethe person to lead the future of
the Republican Party in 2028.
And this extension debate ishappening right now, and there
are also these cracks showing upabout what actually do macro
people believe.
Are they pro-H1Bs against it?
Are they um for quote-unquotefree speech and what Trump is
doing?
Where does Trump come from?

SPEAKER_08 (01:17:27):
Well, there's a lot of uh issues you raised uh in
this segment here.
I did see the president uhcondemning actually when we
discussed the Marjorie TaylorGreene uh issue a little bit.
You know, what happened with heris very simple.
She was wanting to run state onein Georgia.
He privately and discreetly senther a copy of a hole that he had
seen, and she was waving on it,was not gonna work out.
And ever since that moment, hedid her a favor potentially by
saving her from a humiliation.
But ever since that moment,she's opposed him on bombing the

(01:17:48):
movie rebels, on bombing around,she's opposed him on
importation, she's gone on youknow TV shows and attacked him,
and so because he sort ofbetrayed her in her mind on that
political moment, I mean he didher a favor, she's become an
opponent on this other stuff.

SPEAKER_19 (01:18:03):
Because that's the reason that he's really bombing,
you know, only other rippleagainst her.
Only other issues, though.

SPEAKER_08 (01:18:07):
Um, I some of his comments about one day is I
mean, I think she does it wasmaybe he's wanting people to see
how crazy and mindful of thisis.
This is the most provisionablepro-Jewish administration we've
ever had.
We cannot argue with otherwomen's.
The president members who arethis Israel, and the president
has supported Israel, and thepresident has um supportive of
Jewish Americans and Jewishpeople.

(01:18:28):
He cannot argue with otherwomen.
So I think this is one of thenoble batteries.
Um, but he obviously isn't thedinner.
He's not a woman, but he didn'tknow the game, and he's not a
woman.
This this is the most problemsreal Jewish people.

SPEAKER_19 (01:18:47):
He's never done anything to support his real
support of Jewish people andMessers' administration.
I don't think uh just to beclear, Nick French's problem is
not just that he's anti-Israel,he's also um mild bigot as well,
and I think as well, and I thinkthat is also problematic.
It's not just about that oneissue.

SPEAKER_03 (01:19:01):
Well, first, Mr.
Scott, pro-Israel and pro-Jewishare not the same things.

SPEAKER_13 (01:19:05):
Would you uh thank God that they have a diverse
panel?
I actually like this showbecause Rabbi Phillips lets
different people go back andforth.
So I'm hoping that people willstart to somewhat uh break their
their their their their bubble.
Because let me tell you whatit's about.

(01:19:28):
It's the same thing.
It's the money, it's the money.
It's always the money.
It doesn't matter if you'reRussian and you want influence,
you want influence.
How do you get influence?
Money.
Oh, interesting.
That's it.
What do you what do you what doyou think?
Because because Israel is acountry, they don't pay people,
they're the only country on theplanet that doesn't pay out

(01:19:50):
politicians?
The the it's anti-Semitism thingis bullshit.
It's a smokescreen.
It's a way they can stop youfrom criticizing them by saying,
Oh, if you say that Jewishpeople uh uh get give have give
people money to do what theysay, it's anti-Semitic.
Oh.
Or did I say that exact samething about every other person

(01:20:14):
because I have a systemiccritique of the system and I see
the monopolization, and themonopolization is showing
everybody else how to do it, andso if Russia's doing it and it's
working, what makes you thinkIsrael's not gonna do it and it
works?
This is not as difficult aspeople want to make it.

(01:20:36):
You under have to understandwhen you're being lied to.
You know how you understand?
You actually think thatcountries that that uh China,
that Russia see what the USUnited States is doing, and they
just say, Oh well, you know,we're gonna do it ethically.

(01:20:58):
No.
This is a fight over who's gonnabe the dominant superpower,
because if you are a student ofhistory, you know all empires
eventually collapse.
Eventually collapse.
France Massive Empire, MassiveEmpire.

(01:21:18):
Read your history.
Collapsed Britain, MassiveEmpire, Massive Empire, thirteen
colonies, yada yada, colonizeeverything.
Well, go go do good go good lookat the history.
And of course, I like I've saidbefore, I'm gonna do the work
for you and do it, but I'mtelling you, challenge me on it.
Collapsed, owned us, India, etc.

(01:21:43):
etc.
etc.
All the the the the real co uhsettler colonial societies
collapsed.
Go go if if that's too close foryou, too close to home, go back.
Rome, Empire, collapsed.
You know why Rome lasted solong?

(01:22:04):
If you want to study history,because Rome kept evolving.
There was a period of theemperors, the Caesars, there was
a period where it was run by theSenate, there was a period where
it was run by the warriors.
That's why Rome lasted so long.
Because they evolved and a lotand and any time that you were

(01:22:31):
conquered by a Roman, youimmediately got the full rights
of everybody else in Rome.
So that way they could haveloyalty.
Did you know that?
Don't believe me.
Go look it up.

(01:22:51):
Anyway, uh, let's get throughthis.

SPEAKER_08 (01:22:55):
Jewish administration we've ever had.
Period.
You cannot argue it otherwise.
The president knows who our allyis, it's Israel, and the
president has supported Israel,and the president has uh been
supportive of Jewish Americansand Jewish people around the
world.
He cannot argue otherwise.

SPEAKER_03 (01:23:09):
Um just priestly voices.
So the school of Israeligovernment and it's not just
about one issue.
Well, of course, Brother Scott,pro-Israel and pro-Jewish are
not the same thing.
There's a whole host of Jewishbrothers and sisters who come
out of a rich prophetic Judaictradition that's critical of
Israeli government and criticalof Israeli policy.
So don't fuse all of thosetogether that Israel speaks from
homologists.

(01:23:29):
That's just not true.
Do you agree with that?
That's fine.

SPEAKER_13 (01:23:48):
Guess it partisan head.

SPEAKER_19 (01:23:56):
And maybe it is true that Trump is in tune with the
real voices, but but it seemslike the future of who's gonna
lead the Republican Party is inpart being sorted out by some of
these so-called online voices.

SPEAKER_21 (01:24:07):
To my view, and I have not seen any counter-event
incidents, that the less onlinecampaign always wins.
And what we're seeing right nowis a big medium turf war for
conservative viewers.
And a lot of this has to do withCharlie Kirk's assassination
because what he was doing, weall we realized now, he was able
to both talk to politicians andto donors and to the online

(01:24:29):
comment section, if you will,and to the online influencers
and hold all of them together ina coalition.
Now there is a turf war.
And the problem is that a lot ofthat turf is not American, it's
not Republicans, it's notconservatives, and it's not
voters.
What is that?
It's I mean, the whole world hasaccess to the internet.

SPEAKER_19 (01:24:46):
So who do you think it has the best non-online, you
know, feel for the party?
Well, I will talk to you.

SPEAKER_13 (01:24:51):
Anyway, so that's about the first thing she said
that I agree with.
This is people who areintelligent knowing that the
Trump coalition will not bethere after he leaves, and they
are already jocing for who isgoing to run the party.
Because when Trump leaves, itthere's going to be this

(01:25:13):
wonderful thing we we we uh weuh people in the military call a
power vacuum.
When the United States packed upand left Afghanistan, everybody
said, All right, they saidthey're leaving.
That means we get to be incharge now.
So the other person said, likehell you will.

(01:25:38):
If it's true over there, it'strue over here.
It doesn't have to be thiscomplicated.
What is most personal is oftenmost universal.
Let's get back to the show, Iwrite.
Ugh.

SPEAKER_21 (01:25:54):
Oh, you there are very few Republican politicians
who I have seen who have notcome out against Nick Fuentis.
Now, the ones who haven't arenotable, right?
Like JD Vance, like Katie Vance.
Which brings me back to howonline are you, right?
Do you feel that you can upsetthe groups, or are you gonna say
this is not what it means to bea conservative?

SPEAKER_20 (01:26:27):
To be the successor, you're gonna be going to be the
successor.
Obviously, the ambition is notgone.
I think I think this weekend wasum we saw the consequences of
the elections two weeks ago.
Republicans in some.

(01:26:48):
And I think it's why so manyRepublicans were willing to whip
him on this interesting thing.
I think it's one way thisweekend, he went back on some of
the times, particularly on food,because he's hearing the message
on people affording thecountries.
I think it's one way thisweekend, he's also made a having
a hard time following him onVenezuela, and whether he's
going to bump them or negotiatewith them.

(01:27:10):
I think you know, I can't figureit out.
So I I think he is coming toterms with the fact that it's
the beginning of lame duckseason, and there's all of these
youngins already angling to seewho's going whose turn is going
to be next.
And uh, you know, you know, TedCruz has left Cancun and Puerto
Vallarta long enough to puthimself in the mix.

SPEAKER_13 (01:27:28):
There I say and I and and when I when I say that
I'm gonna try to do the work foryou, Trump and all these people
keep saying, Oh, you know, theprices are going down.
I went to the store, DeroleMcLean.
I have an app call, fetch.
I get points when I take apicture of my receipt.
I'm gonna show you the apicture.

(01:27:51):
I'm gonna put it on socialmedia, I'm gonna figure out how
to put it with this episode.
I'll maybe I'll just post it andlook for it.
And I'm gonna and I won't tellyou what the price are.
You're gonna get to see withyour own eyes the number of
items that I got from Food Lionand what I paid.

(01:28:11):
And then you can decide foryourself if the prices are going
down.
You can decide for yourselfinflation, right?
But I'm doing the work for you,and a picture is worth a
thousand words.

SPEAKER_19 (01:28:32):
Say this is the beginning of the run for 2028?
I don't know.
Next for us, a new city on theedge tonight, as ice agents
swarm, Charlotte, NorthCarolina.
We're seeing small businessesclosing after school programs
cancel, one raid happening asworkers decorate a Christmas
tree.
But how many taken into custodyare actually criminals?
We'll tell you when we comeback.

SPEAKER_13 (01:28:49):
Okay, so before I I let them um get back to it to
this thing, uh I I just have tosay this uh about the Marjorie
Taylor Green thing.
And and I want to do it likethis.
Honestly.
We have to talk about the factthat Trump and Marjorie Taylor

(01:29:15):
Green's fallout is because it isa political divorce.
It tells you more about themarriage than the breakup.
This isn't just about two peoplewho don't all of a sudden get
along.
That's not what's happeninghere.
This is the unraveling of theentire political ecosystem that

(01:29:36):
it was built on nothing morethan vibes and adrenaline and
not facts.
It was built on adrenaline, itwas built on grievance, it was
built on the illusion ofloyalty.
And now here's the truth thatnobody wants to say out loud.

(01:29:57):
Marjorie Taylor Greene didn'tchange.
Trump did.
So she is the same firebreathing, a titching chasing,
conspiracy theorying, shootingfrom the hip politician she was
when she first was embraced byDonald Trump.
She didn't suddenly become moreextreme.

(01:30:18):
She just stopped being useful.
She's the female of DonaldTrump.
Period.
She's Trump's entire politicalthe entire political body.
She she she her her entirepolitical life runs on a very

(01:30:40):
simple rule.
People are either assets ortheir exits.
And guess what?
She's not like that.
That's that's a Trump thing.
Trump believes that people areeither access or their exits.
There is no in-between with him.
There is no middle ground withDonald Trump.
There is no no.

(01:31:00):
We've been through this so much.
Then you should see the model.
Don't look at the historicalanalysis.
Look at all the people he brokeup with.
Look at all the people who wereloyal to him that that uh get
fired.
Loyalty does not mean anythingto him as long as you You don't

(01:31:27):
have the freedom of speech forDonald Trump.
I'll put it that way.
He's like most people in thecountry.
They just want to have theirears tickled.
And that's fine, because that'show I know we're in the last
days, because I read this littlebook called the Bible, it says,
on in the end, times people willbe have their ears tickled

(01:31:50):
versus listening to soundteaching.
I knew what's gonna happen.
I'm a Calvinist.
I'd already read about it.
Period.
I knew.
Who is complicit?
The seminaries complicit.
Now they're trying to hide thehand.
Can talk about everybody else,not anybody on their side.

(01:32:14):
Easy.
They're supposed to be the moralauthority.
Not moral authority, partisanacts.
Period.
Anyway, so the truth is it'sjust this.
And and and that's just that.
That uh because Trump doesn'thave a middle ground and he's
leaving, and he's not on theballot, and they know he can

(01:32:36):
never be on the ballot again,that that they can't Attached
themselves to him, and you couldsee it that there is no no with
Trump.
We've been through too much.
We must well you know, weshouldn't part ways.
Trump treats politics just likereal estate.
If a building stops producingvalue, he sells it, he

(01:33:00):
demolishes it, and he ghosts it.
And Marjorie Taylor Green, blessher heart on this one, actually
believed she was different.
Marjorie Taylor Baleen thoughtshe was an inner circle person.
She thought she wasindispensable.
She thought she was ridingshotgun on the MAGA Express and

(01:33:20):
she'd never have to buy anotherpolitical ticket again.
But here is the lesson.
If you ride with Trump longenough, you'll eventually find
out the car only has one damnseat.
When he was out of power, shewas golden.
A loud megaphone, a shockthrower, a walking outrage

(01:33:45):
factory who kept the movementhot and angry.
But once Trump seized poweragain, she was becoming a
distraction, dragging the brand,stepping into fights that didn't
help him, not American, notRepublican, not the movement.
She turned on him an ally aliability because you have to

(01:34:08):
know something.
I'll tell you, I'll let you inon a secret about political
movements built on personalityinstead of principle, instead of
ideology.
When the emperor feels like he'sthreatened, the status starts to

(01:34:30):
get thrown off the balcony.
Trump wants control andperpetuity.
Marjorie Taylor Green wantsattention and perpetuity.
Those two things cannot coexistforever.
Eventually, one has to dominatethe other.

(01:34:50):
And Trump does not like to shareoxygen, let alone power.
Got it?
And Marjorie Taylor Green, shemade one mistake.
One mistake.
Every overcompetent psychicmakes it it all the time.

(01:35:10):
In the third act of a badsuperhero movie, she thought she
was the co-star.
She thought she was thefranchise.
She forgot she was the cast forthe chaos, not the star.
So now we got this politicalbreakup being played out on

(01:35:31):
national TV.
Two people who who sang duets,now throwing verses at each
other like a a hip-hop rapbattle that nobody asked for.
And the Republican Party,they're sitting back in the back
of the church like quiet littlecousins, quiet little church
mouses at a messy familyfuneral, whispering, oh Lord

(01:35:55):
Jesus, what now?
What should we do now?
Whose side should we take?
Because the moment that themovement of Margaret Taylor
Greene represents, that's whatthat that would have to be the
future.
Because Marjorie Taylor Greenerepresents the fire.
She represents rage.

(01:36:15):
She represents conspiracy.
She represents spectacle.
And the and if you give it toher, the movement is still
there.
It's still loud.
It didn't disappear just becauseTrump stops running the show and
because Trump stops returningher phone calls.
And Trump is smart enough toknow that.
But what this fallout reveals,what it exposes with clarity of

(01:36:38):
an X-ray, is that the MegaCoalition was never a coalition
at all.
It was a gravitational feel.
Everything orbited around oneperson, and it was Trump.
Everything served Trump.
Everything exited at thepleasure of Trump.
And Green is finally the smartone because she doesn't have

(01:37:00):
party lines.
She has actual ideology.
And so she can still do what shealways did and actually say the
truth because you thought shewas a conspiracy theory, so she
had more freedom.
And the second you think you'rethe star in a conspiracy theory,
oh, eventually it's gonna comefor you.
So the second you think you'rein the star in your own right,

(01:37:23):
the sun reminds you, sorry, I amthe one who controls the light.
So this fallout is not personal,it's structural, it's
inevitable.
This is what happens when twopeople who survive on spectacle
finally realize that they havestarted to compete for the same
spotlight.
Trump wants supremacy.

(01:37:44):
Marjorie Taylor Greene wants revyou know to be to keep being
relevant.
She wants to be a part of thatpower vacuum.
And there isn't the only oneroom for one narcissist in chief
at a time.
So here's the actual headline toeverything that you're gonna
hear.
Remember this.

(01:38:05):
Marjorie Taylor Green thoughtshe was Trump's heir.
It turns out she was justTrump's hobby.
And when Trump got bored, shegot burned.
Point.
And yes, I'm I'm on fire today.

(01:38:26):
I was on vacation in theBahamas.
Uh I had a lot of things, a lotof thoughts going on, and so
we're coming back in on fire.

SPEAKER_19 (01:38:36):
Erupting on the streets of Charlotte, North
Carolina tonight, the latesttarget of President Trump's
immigration crackdown.
But the man says he's a UScitizen with real ID.
The officers eventually did lethim go, and this new video shows

(01:38:58):
Ice approaching two landscapersprepared to put Christmas lights
on a tree.
Agents left after the homeownerconfronted them.
Agent says that it arrested 140people in the corporation, and
the residents are trying tounderstand why.

SPEAKER_00 (01:39:27):
And then these committed races, people are in
these people that are notchanging criminal changing
breakers like me.

SPEAKER_19 (01:39:42):
Forty four of those 130 were um criminals, according
to DHS.
That's 30%.
So the past would only not.
I'm pretty curious how this isgonna play in a place like
Charlotte.

SPEAKER_03 (01:39:58):
And the same that terrorizing and precious thing
now.
This is this is something whenthey have a massive, massive
indictment on the nature.
On moral ground, on religiousground, on a spiritual ground.

(01:40:19):
And do we do this simply givento just politics in the trunk in
a minimal way?
It means we more focus on theinnocent ones who are being
violated.

SPEAKER_19 (01:40:28):
This is um great moving though.
He is talking today theirstrategy going after uh
immigrants.
And um, as you can see in someof these videos, I mean, they're
in places where there are peopleof Hispanic descent, and whether
or not they actually are illegalimmigrants or not, they're
they're being picked up.
But here's my according toBobino.

SPEAKER_06 (01:40:45):
What we're finding is um agreements looking to go
into people's homes, or in thoseChristmas money, like we see in
this video here.
How do you know who these peopleare?
Do they have a criminal recordmaybe in their home country?
Who are these people?
Too many times we're findingthat some very, very
disreputable individuals areseeking work in people's homes,
in their partners, in othermoney.

(01:41:07):
We don't want those people inthis money.

SPEAKER_19 (01:41:15):
I don't understand how you can justify just
randomly sweeping people up andthen saying, well, maybe we
might find one person who has anillegal record and then we're
gonna paint them all at the samebrush.

SPEAKER_21 (01:41:23):
When Donald Trump was campaigning, he said, when
we get elected, we're going toconduct the largest deportation
uh um campaign in Americanhistory.
Trevor Burrus, Jr.

SPEAKER_13 (01:41:33):
Yes, he did.
And he he that's true.
He did.
It wasn't a shocker.

unknown (01:41:38):
Trevor Burrus, Jr.

SPEAKER_21 (01:41:39):
He did not say the worst of the worst.
And the truth is I'll be he saidevery illegal immigrant in
America is either working, inwhich case they are driving down
the wages in an industry becauseAmerican members can pay them
less, or they are living off thegovernment, in which case
American taxpayers are payingfor them to live here illegally.
Both of those are unacceptable,which is why in every single
call that's come out in the lastyear, a majority of Americans

(01:42:02):
support not deporting the worstof the worst, but deporting
every single illegal migrant,including American school from a
few weeks ago, which found 51%of the government.

SPEAKER_19 (01:42:13):
You're making it sound like it is a huge
majority.
51% of this bigger majority ofpeople, which we do want to come
to target the worst of the worstpeople, like legal simple
samples of them, big also beingpicked up.

(01:42:45):
He was a window, which is realID.
Which is the real IDs.
Documentation, real IDs.

(01:43:09):
Just look at the real ID anddetermine whether it belongs to
him as opposed to shattering hiswindow and arresting him.
It's a simple question.

SPEAKER_08 (01:43:20):
What would happen to me?

SPEAKER_19 (01:43:20):
Yeah, but but maybe she gave him my windows.
What would happen to me?
I think that we also just needto acknowledge that there are uh
different versions.

SPEAKER_11 (01:43:29):
Follow the laws of the land.
Interesting, interesting,interesting.

SPEAKER_13 (01:43:33):
Hmm.
I'm I wonder how many people gotpardoned in the Trump
administration and in the Bidenadministration who did not
follow the laws of the land.
Huh.
They didn't follow the laws ofthe land, and uh they were what

(01:43:57):
happened to them?
Oh they were found guilty by ajury of their peers and then
they had the right amount ofmoney and they got pardoned.
Oh, don't worry.
Don't worry.
I plan to do it for you, and I'mgonna do a one-person show about

(01:44:18):
the law of the land crap and howit is fake.
It's fake.
It's fake.
The the rule of thumb is thisthe laws are for the poor.
The laws are for the people whodon't have enough money to get
out of things.

(01:44:40):
And there's a different systemfor people who have things.
You don't believe me?
It's well past this.
I want you to go look at thedocumentary 13.
Challenge you to go look at thedocumentary 13.
It has both conservatives andDemocrats in the documentary,

(01:45:01):
including the former RepublicanSpeaker of the House, Newt
Gingrich, who helped write thelegislation on some of this
stuff and says it was wrong.
He now sees that it was wrongbecause it criminalized these
people this way and these peoplethis way when they were using

(01:45:25):
fundamentally the same thing,but because this thing rich
people did and this thing poorpeople did.
Mmm so don't take my word forit.
Take the person who wrote thelegislation who's still alive.
He has his own podcast.
His name is Newt Gingrich, he'sa conservative, former

(01:45:47):
conservative speaker of theHouse, Newt Gingrich, bombastic
just like Trump.
Except because he is no longerin power now, he's free to say
whatever.
So we just have to take him athis word that he didn't know if
he was right or not.
Now what what can I do?

(01:46:08):
I can't read the person's heart.
All I can say is that he sayshimself the legislation that he
helped draft and push throughbecause he was a very skillful
and intelligent politician, hesaid he was wrong.
Alright.
There we go.
Hmm.

(01:46:29):
Now, the fact that he was wrong,did people did those people get
out of jail?
No.
They obeyed the laws of theland.
And the law of the land, the forthe person that re wrote the law
says, I was wrong.

(01:46:51):
How many people, how many ofthose people got pardoned?

SPEAKER_10 (01:46:54):
Hmm.

SPEAKER_13 (01:46:54):
Why don't you go and uh look that up?
That'll be fun.

SPEAKER_19 (01:47:02):
But secondly, if you were stopped and a and a and a
cop stopped you and was like,are you a US citizen?
And you showed them the ID thatyou had on you, which is your
you real idea, your driver'slicense.
And if we roll down my window,then we're gonna arrest you and
we're gonna figure it out later.

SPEAKER_08 (01:47:16):
What would you say?
If I fail to roll down mywindow, if I didn't listen to
the instructions of lawenforcement, I'd have whatever
was coming at me because it'sstupid.
Just say yes, I'll roll it downmy window.
Let me show you my ID.
Failure to follow simpleinstructions gets people in
trouble all the time.
By the way, human traffickingproblem, major massive problem.

SPEAKER_19 (01:47:32):
Human water number people.

SPEAKER_20 (01:48:02):
He takes a woman with a TPS.
Because he didn't want with thekingdom of communities and
places like Pennsylvania andplaces like Monsona.
He has lost so much of that one.

(01:48:25):
Why?
Because the people are lookingat these stories and they
realize that this is racialprofiling.
You realize that if you looklike me, I'm asking my body,
maybe one of the free farm,maybe one of the standing from a
home people, standing on thewrong place, the team on the
free.
People who supported the pump,who supported him, whose family
members, mental dumb, tiny, someof the Cubans are being sick.

(01:48:49):
People who supported the companywanted him to get rid of the
gang members, and instead he'sgetting rid of people who are
decent, hardworking folks, someof them who weren't even under
some legal status or temporaryprotection.
And it's having a politicalcoming up next.

SPEAKER_19 (01:49:03):
A federal judge is blasting the DOJ's handling of
its case against James Comey.
It'll be enough, though, to havethat case blown out altogether.
Special guests is going to joinus at the table.
That's next.

SPEAKER_13 (01:49:11):
All right, let's get right back at this.
So look, so both people get it.
I'm trying to do the work foryou, but not the I don't want
you to be a partisan hack here.
So let's get to some facts.
Okay?
Okay, can we can we do that now?

(01:49:32):
Alright.
So here we go.
This is the truth.
We have to talk about it thisway.
What's going on in Charlotte isnot going on because it's some
little local story.

(01:49:55):
Something heavy is moving, andif you were paying attention,
you can feel the ground shiftingunder your feet.
Charlotte, Queen City, woke upthis week, under the boots of
federal power.
Ice and Border Patrol rolled inlike they were invading

(01:50:16):
Fallujah, not walking throughneighborhoods where toddlers
play, where uh Hispanics whoeversit on the porch, where uh
people are just try to get towork without fear.
They came in masked, armored,unannounced, and suddenly the

(01:50:42):
city wasn't a city.
It became like a warning label.
And let me tell you something.
Everybody knows I used to do lawenforcement.
Guess who I did it for?
The federal government.
Guess what I never did?
Wore a mask.
Even when I was doing somethinghard, even if I was doing

(01:51:03):
something on camera, even ifsomebody pulled out their phone
and started recording me.
I would they would why?
Because everything I was doingwas legal and I did not care if
I was being recorded, becauseyou recording me is actually
providing eviden evidentiaryevidence for me.

(01:51:24):
You I know because I did it.
It is constitutional to guesswhat film police officers.
You don't want to believe me?
Go back and listen tolibertarian who congresses with
Republicans, Judge Napolitano,and see what he says about it.

(01:51:51):
Very conservative.
And it's gonna be cool becausewhen he said it, it predated
Donald Trump.
It happened long before DonaldTrump was even a whisper.
So go listen to what he saidthen and listen to what he says
now.
Partisan hackery.
Anyway, operations like uhCharlotte's Web, uh or whatever

(01:52:15):
the whatever they're they'recalling it.
But the web isn't about catchingcriminals, it's about catching
everyone in the net of fear.
Within 48 hours, they'rearrested.
Exactly.
130 people.
Yes, some were criminal records.
Yes, a couple of gang members.
I'm not minimizing that.

(01:52:37):
Real threats and evil responses,but let's be grown-ups for about
two seconds.
When you when you have a targetoperation and it shuts down the
entire immigrant businessquarters, empty school districts
of uh 30,000 kids, and haslawful residents hiding in their

(01:52:58):
homes, that is not targeted.
That is terror with paperwork.
And we all know that the wildestpart is this Charlotte's mayor,
Charlotte's city council, theschool's official, nobody knew
it was coming.
No coordination, no heads up, nobriefing, just federal agents

(01:53:18):
showing up like a storm nobodypredicted, except the folks in
Washington who designed theweather.
Now listen, law enforcement hasits place.
I only spent the majority of mylife doing it so much that I'm
about to turn 40.

(01:53:39):
Now from the age of twenty yearsold, I'm gonna tell you
something here.
From the age of 20 years old allthe way until I turned 36, I did
the same job, just in differentcapacities.

(01:54:00):
I went from the Department ofthe Navy law enforcement.
Not gonna get into what I did.
I went from the Department ofNavy law enforcement.
I was a master at arms.
Then I went into the departmentof homeland security.

(01:54:25):
Guess what I did?
Law enforcement.
Then I worked for FederalProtective Services.
Guess what I did?
Law enforcement.
Then I went as a privatecontractor.
Guess who I was working for onthose contracts?
Well, I made a lot of money.
Federal government.
Now, so I know.

(01:54:47):
I know law enforcement has itsplace.
I did it for all of my lifeuntil 36 years old, where I
decided I have now I canbreathe, I can relax, because I
did all the work for the federalgovernment.

(01:55:07):
I'm not telling you this as somelymptard who doesn't think that
we need police.
We need good ones.
And you know what good ones do?
They obey the law even when it'sdifficult.
If you believe you should obeythe laws, obey the la the people

(01:55:28):
who are in charge of enforcingthe law should start by the
example.
They should obey the law.
They should identify who theyare.
They should you you arepreaching to the world to
respect your authority.

(01:55:52):
Lead by example.
When it's hard, lead by example.
Guess what we used to do?
Guess what we used to do?
I'm gonna I'm gonna I I'll tellyou this one thing.
So in uh in Guatanamo Bay, it isactually it is actually
regularly known that if you goto Gitmo, what is going to

(01:56:16):
happen is the people will waitfor you to get to work.
They will sit there, they'llpass a pot around, and they'll
all poop in it.
That's what they do.
And they wait, hold on, sorry,and and they uh they they sorry

(01:56:36):
about that, and they and theywait for you to come to work and
they th throw poop on youruniform that you spent all hours
ironing to make sure you looksquare away.
The second you walk over thereand you they'll say you'll say,
Come out of the cell, Ahmed,nada boomba, and they throw poop

(01:57:02):
on you.
And guess what we were trainedto do while somebody has thrown
several things of human feces onus that don't respond.
And guess what we did?
A lot of the times, the goodpeople, we did not respond.

(01:57:25):
We walked off.
We went and got the shots tomake sure everything was okay,
right?
We we we uh we we we preparedfor that by having different
uniforms.
You had to work within the law.

(01:57:47):
You wanna know what uh somepeople how we figure that out?
How how we work within the lawto uh get our little revenge?
We didn't clean our uniforms.
Ah, why?
Because guess what's gonnahappen later on that day?

(01:58:09):
With little Mr.
the poopies in the cell.
It's chow time and they're gonnawanna eat.
And now you're gonna serve themtheir food with all their little
poop on it.
That's how you work within thelaw to get revenge.
You don't retaliate, you takeit, you know the law, you know

(01:58:33):
you're not supposed to beat themup.
Why?
Why?
Why can't we why can't I beat upsomebody who threw poop on me?
When when I mean, shouldn't I beable to No, why why would I beat
them up?
They are locked in a cell.
Secured.
The action that they wereactually going to to to do it's

(01:58:57):
done.
It's done.
Guess what?
I'm in no danger.
They're all still behind thecell.
All of them are still behind thecell.
They are all all of them.
They are all still they they Iwas only going through because
let's say they were about to gettheir milk.

(01:59:21):
Milk time, they're about to geta piece of cornbread, something
like that.
So now it's my turn.
Oh, you got me right when I wasbringing out the first tray, and
you guys are willing to laughabout it, because uh why not
supposed to do this and youyou're used to fasting for forty
days because you know theMuslims, that's who they were,

(01:59:43):
they fast.
So not eating is good easy foryou.
Right.
But this was this is what I'mgonna do.
If you're smart, hint, hint.
I don't respond because I'm notin any threat.
They don't got another poopbucket waiting for me, and if
they did, guess what?

(02:00:04):
You don't change clothes Youwalk off like you're gonna
change clothes, you get yourcomposure, and then you serve
them their meals and the poopthat they just threw on you.
And now, hmm, who won?
I everything I did was in thebounds of the law.
But I did it legally.

(02:00:26):
I got my revenge.
They got they got what they weregonna do to me.
I was in a danger.
So I did not respond.
They and uh I I'll say uh somepeople uh didn't respond.
Yeah.
Because I'm a thinker uh becausesome people think.

(02:00:47):
Uh so the the thinkers they uhsay, yeah, this is how this is
gonna work.
I'm gonna stay in this, and I'mnot even gonna go shower.
I'm gonna keep serving themeals.
And you you wanna fast.

(02:01:08):
Oh, I'm gonna make sure that youwanna fast.
Because you did this to me, andI still gonna serve you your
food because that's in the law.
Have fun with your food.
That's how you do it.
That's how you do it.
You can't do that if you don'tknow the damn law.

(02:01:31):
Now that's a practical personalexample that I normally never
talk about.
I actually find it fairly cornywhen people talk about their
military service.
I believe in freedom of speech,so I don't do it.
It's just not my thing, it's notmy thing.
Why?
Because I don't want people toto to use my military service

(02:01:55):
and think that that means that Iam making arguments from
authority.
Nope.
That and and so I don't evenbring it up.
I it's very rare.
But you pe uh people are soimpressed with arguments from
authority, I am literally gonnachange my position.

(02:02:15):
Um there's a there's aconservative um guy, uh his name
escapes me.
He he sits down and debates oncollege campuses, uh Crowder,
Louder Crowder, and his hisshirt just says, Change my mind,
change my mind, change my mind.
Well, Louder Crowder has uh he'sgot an effect on me now.

(02:02:39):
I'm gonna be doing what I'mdoing right now often because
I'm daring I I'm I'm begging youguys to change my mind.
I'm gonna have conspiracytheorists on the show,
allegedly, and let them talk inlong form.
Why?
That's how you that's what youdo.

(02:03:00):
We're gonna say what we believe,we're gonna say what we
disagree, yada yada yada.
I'm gonna let you hear 'em.
And that way, you have an everdish rate record of what they
believed, whether they're right,where they're wrong.
Gotta do it.
I have to do it.
I have to let I have to do it.
Why?
I can't just say let I can't Ican't just let intelligent
people that I agree with on theshow, because I have to show you

(02:03:22):
guys how to do it.
Because you just won't.
I don't understand it.
It drives me crazy.
Why must you die?
Why won't you live?
So, I don't know.
I mean, I do know.
But but you know, I don't know.

(02:03:42):
Wink wink.
But so now I'm going to do whatI did want to do, and I'm going
to back up some days.
And you're gonna get freecounseling.
You're gonna get freepsychology.
You're gonna get freephilosophy.

(02:04:05):
For the greater good.
Anyway.

SPEAKER_14 (02:04:11):
So I said all that to say this.
Law enforcement has its place.

SPEAKER_13 (02:04:25):
Order matters.
Nations need borders.
All that is true.
But let me tell you what else isalso true.
When the government operates insecrecy in the shadows, it stops
protecting people and it startscontrolling them.

(02:04:48):
And that's what Charlotte feltlike this week.
A community suddenly afraid togo to work, parents afraid to
send their kids to school,citizens not immigrants,
citizens recording BorderPatrol, smar uh uh smashing car
windows because they didn't likethe tone of a driver who asked,

(02:05:11):
Why are you stopping me?
That isn't good policing.
It's just bad policing.
It's bad policing.
That is signaling somethingelse.
It's signaling to an immigrantcommunity, don't get too

(02:05:32):
comfortable here.
You you you be why?
Why because your very presenceis conditional.
We don't need your cooperation,we don't need your permission,
your zip code is no longer ashield, and the fallout is this
you can smell the fear like rainon a pavement.

(02:05:53):
Business is close, churchesturned into sanctuaries again.
Guess what?
We're back in 2017 vibes.
Kids stay at home.
I thought you guys didn't likeuh shutting down schools, etc
etc.
Workers disappear from job sitesand the people cheering all the
raids?
Oh, that's very easy for you.

(02:06:14):
Lockdowns for thee, but not forme.
But anyway, they don't live inthe neighborhood that's being
raided, so it's easy.
Now let me say the part thatmakes people feel uncomfortable.
It isn't about safety.
This wasn't about criminals,it's not about protecting the

(02:06:34):
homeland.
This was about optics.
This was about flexing.
This is about political theaterdressed up as federal authority.
And if you can't see it, it'sbecause you don't want to see
it.
The administration has beentrying to prove it can be tough

(02:06:58):
on immigration, and nothing saystough like sending armored
agents into a city far, far froma border and terrorizing whole
communities and then calling itnecessary operations.
You know what Charlotte proved?

(02:07:18):
It proves George Carlin wasright.
There's a big game happening andyou ain't playing.
And Charlotte this week the gamewas fear.
Fear is policy, fear ismessaging, fear is governing
philosophy.
Let me close with this.
Charlotte is not a border city.

(02:07:39):
Charlotte is America.
Diverse, complicated, growing,hopeful, flawed, but trying.
And when American becomes aplace where people are afraid to
walk outside because their skin,their accent, their name,
suddenly that makes themsuspect.
We've left the path of democracyand wanted to something darker.

(02:08:03):
The question isn't why isn't ICEdoing anything?
The question is what kind ofcountry are we becoming?
What where is this normal?
And if you're not asking that,you already have become too damn
comfortable.
And I want you guys tounderstand this.
Once you give the governmentpower as somebody who worked for

(02:08:27):
the government, we never give itback.
The Patriot Act that you justheard her yammering about, I'm
sorry, uh the the whateverstupid ID crap that she was just
telling about that I refused toget as somebody who worked for
the government?
Do you know when that law wentinto effect after 9-11?

(02:08:52):
When we were supposed to when wewere scared.
And we made brass decisionsbecause we were scared.
And and we and b and and and andthat was in a bill doing the
work for you here.
That's why you're getting a longshow here.
That was in a bill called thePatriot Act.

(02:09:13):
A bill that now, in theory, thethis version of Republicans
believe in.
But when I was growing up, whenI was growing up, and Darrell
McClain was listening to RushLimbaugh, and Rush Limbaugh was
telling me who was supposed tobe a conservative.

(02:09:33):
When Darrell McClain grew up,and Darrell McLean was listening
to Neil Borts, and Neil Borteswas telling me who was supposed
to be a libertarian, and DarrellMcClain was listening to Bill
O'Reilly.
And Bill O'Reilly was awink-winking I'm actually not a
Republican, I'm an independent,but obviously I've always voted

(02:09:54):
for Republicans.
And, you know, we I kind of knewwhat was going on.
Yeah, I'm actually anindependent.
Yeah, independent is always gotit.
And uh it's a two-party system.
You can you can claim you're nota something, but if you don't do
what I if you don't do what Istruggled to do for years, and

(02:10:19):
actually abstained from voting,ask my friend Josh Scott about
it.
Tell him if I'm lying.
He changed my mind.
He has a podcast.
His podcast is calledOveropinionated with Josh Scott.
I'm gonna have him on so you cansee that I do the radical thing

(02:10:40):
of changing my mind.
When I wrote my book, Faith inthe Ballot, and tried to stop
some of the partisan bickering.
Do you know what the originalintent of that book was?
The book I was actually writingwas why Christians shouldn't

(02:11:01):
vote.
When I originally startedwriting the book, I believed you
should abstain from voting.
That Christians shouldn't beinvolved, that it divides the
body of Christ.
We already have enoughdivisions.
There's four thousand, likeforty-five thousand versions of

(02:11:24):
Protestant Christianity.
If you include uh Catholicdenominations, that's even that
adds more, right?
We already have enoughdivisions.
For unity's sake, I wanted us tostop voting, stop being involved
in the politics.
Right?

(02:11:44):
I I I've I had started to writethe book and list the historical
examples.
History, who didn't vote, howhow and then they wanted to be
yada yada yada, set apart.
I looked up the Quakers, Ilooked up the this, I looked up
that, and when I was doing theresearch for my book, guess what
happened?
I changed my mind, and I changedit to we should vote, we should

(02:12:11):
talk, and then after it's over,we should come back and still be
brothers and sisters in Christwho have vigorous disagreements.
That's it.
How many people you think aregonna read that book?
Don't know, it's irrelevant.
I put it out so when I'm dead,it's there.
Alright.
It's very cheap.

(02:12:32):
I made it very cheap on purpose.
I I have it in paperback.
So if you like paperback, youcan do that.
I have it in audio form, so ifyou want audio form, you can do
that.
I have it in hard copy, so ifyou want it in hard copy, you
can do that.
I purposely made it succinct andshort.

(02:12:55):
So it takes exactly when you putit on audio, you can do the
learn the history in two hours.
How many times have you heard meon this show promote my own
book?
I don't.
There you go.
I already did the work.
Read it.
So to get back to the topichere.

(02:13:19):
Here are some relevant numbers.
And I want us to understandthis.
We have to compare immigrationenforcement outcomes under
Barack Obama, now that he'sgone, he's been gone for a while

(02:13:40):
now, to the Trumpadministration.
Now, remember this.
Remember the theme that I'vebeen talking about here.
Conservatives hated BarackHussein Obama.
But under Barack Hussein Obama,the secret Muslim yada yada

(02:14:00):
yada, wink wink, all that stuff,under Obama, over his eight
years in office, the immigrationand customs enforcement agency
logged over three point onemillion deportations.
Check me.
Check the facts.
In the fiscal year of 2012, theObama administration recorded

(02:14:24):
more than 407,000 removals inthat one year alone.
Under the first Trumpadministration, ICE did fewer
removals in total than underObama.
For example, congressional dataindicates that the Trump
administration had not yetmatched the roughly 40,000 AI

(02:14:50):
removals seen during Obama'speak.
More recently, under Trump'ssecond term from 2025 onward,
ICE removal surged again.
The data shows over 270,000removals in a 12-month period.
So here's a summary based on thepublic data that I have

(02:15:13):
available.
The Obama administrationachieved higher total removers
over his full term and thehigher annual peak than the
first Trump term.
The Trump administrationenforcement numbers increased
again later in his second term,but it did not in many cases

(02:15:34):
because the cases exceeded thehighest removal levels of the
Obama era.
So, that's the facts.
I don't know.
I'm not some partisan idiot, soI don't I had I'm not gonna be a
stain for Obama, and I'm notgonna be a stain for Trump.
Whatever.
It's not it's not my it's not mything.
I I I have to I have to somesomewhat do this different here

(02:15:59):
because I'm trying to save mycountry.

SPEAKER_15 (02:16:14):
Drivers with long hair and short commutes choose
remix.
Drivers with short hair and longcommutes choose reinix.
Drivers with pets on board,babies on board, and bored
babies on board choose reinix.
Basically, drivers who love aclear view of the road all
choose reinex wipers.
The number one wiper blades inAmerica.

SPEAKER_09 (02:16:29):
Every leap in American history.
Every leap in American history.

SPEAKER_13 (02:17:23):
Uh, just so I had to promote the uh my own stuff
here.
I've already done the work onthis before this person said it.
This is why I have a Substackthat I started five months ago.
So if you don't want to listento me yabba yabbada yabba in
long form, you can read it andyou can paste, copy and paste

(02:17:44):
it, and you can hit hint, youcan check the facts.
And I'm gonna tell you, I'veliterally done the work for you
because I my shows, every lastshow that I produce, comes with
transcripts.
You don't even have to read it.
You can sit down uh and copy andpaste it, put it in your AI

(02:18:06):
model and ask, is this true?
Boom, mind blown.
Anyway, I wrote an article aboutit, it's on Substack.
See if I was right, see if I waswrong.
There.
See how easy that is?

SPEAKER_19 (02:18:21):
Now, just two weeks ago, the same judge accused
Halligan of taking anindict-first and investigate
second approach.
The judge is giving thegovernment until Wednesday to
object to his order, givingComey's lawyers access to jury
records.
Um and another judge has nowstated that while he hears the
the parts of the case.
But Stacey, um, what do you makeof, first of all, how do you

(02:18:42):
even get to this point?
When the judge is looking atwhat you presented to a grand
jury, and it's basically askingthe question do you even
understand how any of this issupposed to work?

SPEAKER_02 (02:18:50):
So grand jury minutes don't even come out to
anybody before a trial starts.
So this early in theproceedings, there were so many
errors in there by LindsayHalligan to the grand jury in
that room.
This could easily be dismissedjust on having a tainted grand
jury indictment.
He said things to those jurors,and this was released by this
military judge who reviewed thegrand jury minutes and is

(02:19:10):
alerting the defense and wantsto release to the defense these
minutes in the challenge ofthese charges.
He said crazy things like JamesCollins of the grand jury, and
he can explain away morequestions when jury when he gets
to talk about he can talk abouthis innocence.

(02:19:33):
Present evidence to the grandjury.
There was no judge in them,there's no defense attorneys in
them.
You have a solemn secret job topresent evidence in the proper
way.
She also made another comment tothe grand jury, which blew my
mind, which was what we'representing to you now is only
the beginning.
There's gonna be more evidenceat trial.
This isn't just a rookiemistake, this is a
constitutional mistake.

(02:19:53):
The grand jury can only considerwhat they're given in that room.

SPEAKER_20 (02:19:56):
It's only only these people and also present some
evidence from previousinvestigations that are not
allowed in that.
I mean, it could be a FourthAmendment violence.

SPEAKER_13 (02:20:03):
So, yeah, I'm just gonna say this.
I guess I'm using an argumentfrom authority, or I'd like to
say maybe because that's whatyou guys like, or arguments from
experience is what I like.
This is what happens when youdon't put the best people in
charge, you put the people youlike in charge.

(02:20:25):
Cronyism does not actually meancompetence.
I thought conservatives believethat if you pick yourself up by
your bootst whatever the theywhat they say, pick yourself up
by your bootstraps, right?
Then everybody has the sameopportunities the best person

(02:20:50):
went out.
Trump is showing us every daythat that's what they say, but
that's not what actually theydo.
Why do I know that that's notwhat they actually do?
Because the people that havebeen saying it to the poor have
no capacity in them to say it totheir own president.

(02:21:11):
Why?
You apply, you obey the rulesthat we have yelled about for
years.
But when Trump is proving thatit's a bunch of crap, mmm well
no, no, no.
He's with us.
He's sending these cases tofederal court without

(02:21:32):
understanding that the federaljudiciary is not made up of all
Republicans.
It's made up of a diverse body.
So and they have lifetimeappointments, which means what?
They're gonna do what they wannado because they're gonna be

(02:21:55):
there longer than Trump.
And and Democrats have to besmart enough, I suppose, I don't
want to give them t advice.
Well, and that's that's just dowhat you don't want to do, our
is don't respond.
Don't hyperventilate.
Plot, plan, strategize,organize, shut up.

(02:22:21):
You know, if you you you youthat's not your you you have
people they're the ones that geton TV, and they are the ones you
pit.
You, your great talker.
You are the only one that talks.
Period.
Everybody else, this persontalks.
We're gonna let them s go behindclosed doors, wink wink, and

(02:22:43):
teach people how to talk likethat.
Oh, it's almost like practicemakes perfect mind blowing.
Anyway, and then when the Trumpadministration leaves, guess
what?
Trump has shown you the model,and the Supreme Court has what?

(02:23:06):
Has justified the model.
So you do the exact same thingDonald Trump did to put
everything you want back intoplace.
Why?
Because what's good for thegoose is good for the gander.
There, I hope.

SPEAKER_20 (02:23:53):
Um who has no experience prosecuting?

SPEAKER_02 (02:23:58):
And you know what's so funny?
Lindsay Halligan to me looksjust like Hope Hicks, his former
aide from the Trumpadministration with the big
flowing long hair and the samekind of makeup and the same
look.
She looks like one of theapprentice girls.
It's it's she's neverprosecuted.

SPEAKER_19 (02:24:11):
No, makes them a bad lawyer in case.

SPEAKER_13 (02:24:14):
No, you idiot.
It means that he picks peoplebased off their looks.
Because people have figured out,you know, I mean, based on the
evidence, because Trump has beenpresident before, and then there
was a break, and then he becamepresident again.
If you are and humans are theselittle things, if you believe in
evolutionary biology, humans arepattern-seeking animals.

(02:24:39):
And guess what?
It is in your very nature,because you're trying to
survive, to recognize patternsand then emulate them.
So even though I am frustratedthat you all are a bunch of
pathetic hypocrites, I forgiveyou because even if I believed

(02:25:00):
in the Bible, the Bible says youare totally depraved above all
things, no man can understandit.
It says it about your heart.
And most of you, out of the verynature of the type of people
that you are, you listen to yourheart.
And I know your decisions,because you listen to your

(02:25:23):
heart, is gonna be deceitfullywicked above all things.
No man can understand it.
And guess where I got that from?
The Old Testament.
Because I am one of thoseniggers who read books.
There you go.
There's a free nugget.
So if you even if I wasreligious, religion says, You

(02:25:49):
have I've been stained by thefall of Eve.
So we call that in old theismthe doctrine of total depravity.
And you can check me on this.
When America was first founded,check me, fact check me.
Most of Americans believed thatGod was in control of

(02:26:11):
everything.
They were Calvinist.
And over time, as Americastarted to believe in liberty
and freedom, etc.
etc.
etc., they became moreArminians.

(02:26:32):
It was not a theologicalawakening that made people
become Arminians.
It was a people flocking toAmerica, and as a way to not
murder each other, they had tochange their theology because so
many different people werecoming here, and they came here

(02:26:56):
for what?
History, history, history.
They came here for religiousfreedom.

unknown (02:27:02):
Oh wow.

SPEAKER_13 (02:27:04):
And because they came here for religious freedom,
and they came, get this, inmass, mass, they left each other
alone.
And because they left each otheralone and stopped trying to kill
each other, America boomed.
So if you want to go back to thefoundation of how we actually

(02:27:24):
make this country work, howabout you go back to the damn
foundation of how we made thiscountry work and agree to
disagree?
And la wow.
I did it for you.
Now, verify it by looking andsee what I said.

(02:27:47):
I'll give you a good start here.
Go look up Calvinism, how whenit started, how they came to
America, how it became popular.
Go look up Wesleyanism, what itmeans, how it came to America,
what was the foundation, go lookup Arminianism on your own.

(02:28:09):
How it came to America.
Go look up dispensationalism.
When it started, when it becamepopular, how it came to America.
I can keep going, but I'm not,because like I told you earlier,
which you don't know is thereare 45,000 different versions of
Protestant Christianity.

(02:28:30):
Which means what?
When somebody says I'm aChristian, they don't know
that's not telling anybodyanything.
Alright, back to this again.

SPEAKER_08 (02:28:42):
I don't understand why that's relevant.
Comment.
It's relevant.

SPEAKER_13 (02:28:46):
Oh, yeah, I forgot about that.
Because I don't know.
Go look at the Secretary ofDefense.
I mean, you know, he's not anugly man.
He p he makes the part.
Donald Trump, at least in thefirst term, and but I don't know
what he's doing in the secondterm.

(02:29:07):
I don't try to get close to itbecause everybody else is so
close to it.
I try to have a clear mind.
But if you go look at the firstterm, it was very clear that
Donald Trump constantly waswatching the news.
How?
Because of the tweets.
He was tweeting in real timewhile Josh Scorbor, while Joe

(02:29:27):
Scarborough was sayingsomething.
He was when Mika was sayingsomething.
Don't believe me.
That was it's we should be farremoved from the first
administration that I could sayit in confidence.
Go look it up.
Go look it up how they knewTrump wasn't sleeping.
Because he obsessively watchesthe news for the positive and

(02:29:51):
the negative.
That's how Trump is very awareof what people are saying about
him because he obsessivelywatches the news.
Trump is like me.
What?
Did did Durell say Donald Trumpis like him?
Yes.
Yes.
Trump has what we in thebusiness call political brain

(02:30:12):
rot.
We are obsessed with politics,so it's what I watch mostly all
the time for fun.
I don't watch sports.
I I don't any sports.
I just never had an interest ina sport I wasn't doing or I
didn't know anybody in.
My sports is these crazy peopleon TV.
Oh, when I go to the gym andwork out, guess what's in my

(02:30:35):
earpiece?
Podcast.
At a 1.75 speed, so I can getmore of them out.

SPEAKER_10 (02:30:45):
Huh.

SPEAKER_13 (02:30:47):
And because I force myself to do this thing that I
hope you guys would do.
Listen to people I don't agreewith.
I'm not telling you to doanything I don't do.
I'm telling you how I do it.

SPEAKER_02 (02:31:00):
Because it's kind of funny that he puts in a
prosecutor who has neverprosecuted a case in a day in
her life.
So yes, I'm alluding to her low.
So what you were saying aboutwhat went on in the room.

SPEAKER_08 (02:31:09):
It's a judge's.
I guess that's I mean, he'ssupposed to be a judge, but he's
acting like a defense attorneyfor coming here.
What if Halligan says what youjust said, didn't he?

SPEAKER_11 (02:31:16):
When I was in the military, the the term was
that's not a judge, that's anactivist judge.
Hmm.
Oh, interesting.
Interesting, interesting,interesting.

SPEAKER_13 (02:31:27):
She is the activist judge is activist judge bad a
few years ago.
Activist judge good now.
Great.

SPEAKER_08 (02:31:35):
She's making statements, but she has a
different point of view.

SPEAKER_02 (02:31:38):
My statement, Scott, there are the statements of the
magistrate.
The magistrate said this is whathe read is alerting the defense
and the prosecution that thisproblem is and that the defense
is a remedy because the problemin this department could be so
high because of what went onthere.

SPEAKER_03 (02:32:33):
The whole infrastructure of the Republic
is collapsing in real time.
And it's an issue in public.
The quality of one's character,character's destiny.
Heraclitus and Emerson are rightabout that.
And all the talk, all thedistractions don't take us to
the fundamental issues, whichare the fact that civic virtue
is being lost, high qualitypublic life is being lost, lies

(02:32:54):
are replacing even efforts totell the truth.
None of us have a monopoly ontruth, but at least we can
aspire to it.

SPEAKER_20 (02:32:58):
Cornell, I'm not sure James Comey thinks this is
a distraction.
Well, it's not a chance.

SPEAKER_13 (02:33:15):
He didn't say that uh oh, we needed to ignore James
Comey.
He said we need to make theconversation larger.
She jumps right back to whereshe's comfortable, proving the
point.
Sometimes you shouldn't justrespond for the sake of a
response.
You should listen and reflect.

(02:33:37):
Think about it before youbecause before you you uh say
anything.
I want you to listen to this onething that we used to say in the
South.
I'd rather be thought of as afool than to open my mouth and
remove all doubt.
Remember that.
You want me to say it again?
I'd rather be thought of as afool than to open my mouth and

(02:33:57):
remove all doubt.
Alright?
Life lesson.

SPEAKER_19 (02:34:03):
I'm not discounting anything that you're talking
about.
It doesn't add all the time.
It doesn't add a famous homie.
It doesn't add to James Homie.
There are also a bunch of otherpeople.

SPEAKER_13 (02:34:12):
And then she agrees.
We have to learn how to walk andshow gum at the same time.
Interesting.
So if he says we have to do allthese things, and you're hi- and
then you're hyper focused on onething, you agreed with him at
the end.
You said we have to learn how towalk and shoot gum at the same
time, which means what?

(02:34:33):
We have to do multiple things.
So what so what did you disagreefor?
You just agreed.
You you just wanted to reply forthe sake of a reply.
I caught you.
Shut up sometimes.

SPEAKER_19 (02:34:51):
And the Post has an interesting story about one of
those individuals in Miami whois pursuing these broad
investigations into Trumpofficials.
And his appointment, um, he hassome some issues in his resume
in terms in terms of not alsonot being potentially qualified
for that job, but hisappointment is causing real
attorneys who've been there fora long time to flee.
And he's there for the solepurpose of prosecuting people on
Trump's enemies list.

SPEAKER_21 (02:35:12):
I have to say, every time they name somebody who's,
you know, been indicted or beingprosecuted, I think to myself,
oh wow, that sounds likerevenge.
And then I see what they'rebeing accused of, and I'm like,
that sounds really bad,actually.
And I kind of changed my mindabout it.
Although I have to say I'm withDr.
West on this.
I feel like for most Americans,this is just so not top of mind.
People are living paycheck topaycheck.
They are really struggling withhow they're gonna make NT and

(02:35:33):
pay their rent.

SPEAKER_13 (02:35:34):
I agree with her at the end, but the voice she said
at the beginning was stupid.
Why?
When somebody is accused ofsomething, I have not changed my
mind.
Why?
I'm waiting for the evidence tobe presented.
Alright, so that these are thepeople that people listen to.

(02:35:55):
This is who gets on CNN.
Stupid people.

SPEAKER_19 (02:35:59):
I'm with you, Dr.
Watt.
It's that's really it's not, andI think you're right.
It is uh it's not top of linefor most regular people, but it
is top of mind for the presidentof the United States.
AC Schneider, thank you verymuch for being here.
Next, the guest is gonna thepanel is gonna give us their
nightcaps.
The legal phrases edition, we'lltell you all about it next.

SPEAKER_22 (02:36:16):

SPEAKER_11 (02:36:44):
So here's the thing, guys.

SPEAKER_13 (02:36:46):
Um one of one of my long-term, uh, long um one of my
long um one of my longest uhpatrons.
Actually, to be 100% um clearabout this.
This person was my first patronand has been giving me every

(02:37:07):
single month faithfully.
And I'm gonna say they're who itis, they can have their anime.
But from the very beginning whenI started this show, they've
been giving me$100 a month.
So the person who has beengiving me$100 a month um, which

(02:37:29):
I you know uh I out of respectfor them because I have a
Patreon and I don't need peopleasking them for money.
I'm gonna say.
Right?
Gotta protect them.
Told me that uh they were havingsome problems with uh the speed

(02:37:50):
of the show.
And I actually asked otherpeople, uh I took it seriously,
and that they did not see thatthere was a problem with the
speed, that they thought it wasfive.
I asked, um, to be honest, Iasked about five people.

(02:38:11):
But what I decided to do eventhough the other people
disagreed with uh the personthat has given a lot of money,
they we all, the people whodisagreed, said that our ears
had been fine-tuned because welistened to our podcast 1.75.

(02:38:36):
So what you are hearing now isbecause this person has been
with me since the beginning.
I have slowed the podcast downon purpose using AI.
Because everybody else alreadylistens to it fast and they know
how to do it.
So uh this part is somewhatcrap.

(02:39:01):
You you can cut it off now.
Uh, but because they're they'relight, uh, I put it in there.
Because I don't want to hear it.
This part I'm gonna speed up.
Thank you for tuning in.
And see you on the next episode.

SPEAKER_19 (02:39:19):
Add enough of your kids saying six seven enough to
make the phrase illegal?
Yes.
Yes.

SPEAKER_22 (02:39:24):
And favorite scents from the world's number one
antiperspirant brand.

SPEAKER_19 (02:39:29):
We are back.
Have you had enough of your kidssaying six seven enough to make
the phrase illegal?
Yes.
And they passed an admission ofmaking six seven illegal in
order to quote keep parentssafe.
What phrase a word would youmake illegal to tell you about
this?

SPEAKER_21 (02:39:43):
I am so sick of the word weaponized.
You cannot weaponize a word orthought.
Literally, the entire purpose ofthe United States of America is
that words cannot becomeweapons.
You choose words.
We find it out.
That's the whole point of freespeech.
I'm so sick of this word.

SPEAKER_20 (02:39:54):
Can't make people agreed.
Um I don't like all of theseabbreviations that kids put in
text, but I constantly findmyself having to look up what
the hell are trying to say.
I mean it just makes sense.
T M.
Okay.

SPEAKER_08 (02:40:32):
Seven, the sigma, the what?
I'm just telling you.
I'm so sick of being answered ifI would like the editive
customer service kiosk.
What does human being standingthere?
These little machines are askingus to tip things all the time
that we previously didn't haveto tip in our culture.
I'm happy to tip a waiter sortof rush.

(02:40:52):
I don't need it.
Where does the tip go?

SPEAKER_19 (02:40:53):
If I'm tipping a machine, then a person standing
there who gets the tip?
What what computer programmingjust to have a wage that adds
the tip on it?
I just want that as some peoplehave suggested.
Who gives the wages?
No customer service wages.
I mean, yeah, you're right.

SPEAKER_13 (02:41:02):
Like, you know, you can air slightly check out of
the kiosk and they're like, Icouldn't I couldn't help myself.
I I I couldn't help myself.
I disagree with everything thathe said in that only because
people don't people don'tfreaking tip the person.
I I have gone out drinking atsomebody who regularly has a

(02:41:28):
great time, and I've had aconversation with them, so I'm
not gonna mention them by name.
The person the bartender isattentive, does everything
right, makes sure they get allattention.
These then this person is about300 pounds and they can really
put them back.
They'll have hundreds of dollarsworth of drinks.

(02:41:52):
They Because the bar is sorelaxed, the people even allow
them to go out to their car andwhich they do, and they can have
other drinks.
And then they'll come right inat their the bartender attended
to them, and there's only one ofthem.
Well, guess what that persondoes after having a great night?

(02:42:16):
All ways writes zero dollars.
So that was stupid.
It doesn't matter if it's amachine, it's a machine because
you didn't tip the damn workers,period.
The rich and the rest of us.
A poverty manifesto.
It's a big club, and you ain'tin it.

This week on the assignment with me on Cornish.
It's common to hear people,especially women, talking about
having imposter syndrome.
But I did not expect to hearthat from a woman who was once a
head of state.
