The JD Rucker Show - 1-17-2025

TikTok ban, Inauguration moving indoors, illegal aliens self-deporting, and more.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:34):
You're listening to the JD. Rutger Show. Let's begin. Hello,
my friends, Welcome to a live episode of The J. D.
Rutgers Show. You know, people sometimes ask me why I
don't do more live. I would love to do live.
I've grew up on live. Okay. I was doing live
back in what two thousand and eight, I think two

(00:57):
thousand and nine. That's when I started doing podcast, started
doing these shows and it was fun. I loved it.
I still love it, but things happen. I have this
is my primary career, but I also have other responsibilities
other companies that I'm involved with, mostly sponsors of the show.

(01:18):
So it is contributing to the show itself. But as
a result, it's sometimes challenging to be able to get
a solid hour two hours. I would do three or
four hours if I could. The distractions are numerous, and
as a result, I tend to pre record my show.
And there's other reasons too. My show does broadcast on

(01:40):
Frank Speech and on Dell TV on Rumble, and so
to be able to do that, I don't have a
producer over there. I self produce my show and I
send it over there, and it's fifty six minutes and
I have to get it. The timing's got to be perfect,
and I can't. I have to pre record, and that
bums me out because it means that I don't have

(02:02):
an opportunity to really address the audience, to talk in
real time chat or anything like that. But we're trying this.
This is a tempt number at fourteen. Over the last
several years, we're going to try to start doing an
evening show because that's when I'm still busy. Okay, don't
get me wrong. If you saw my setup here, all

(02:24):
the screens that I have and the things that I'm
monitoring while I'm also doing the show, you think that
I was like, like talented or something crazy, because you know,
we in the evening seven days a week, three hundred
and sixty five days a year, three sixty six on
a leap year. I run The Liberty Daily every night,
So starting at five pm Pacific, I'm running The Liberty

(02:46):
Daily up until the morning, and then on the weekends
like we're in now, I run it the entire time.
And that's challenging anybody who's familiar with The Liberty Daily.
It is it's real time news as it's coming in,
so for me to stop for an hour or two hours. However,
long to do a show can be very challenging, especially

(03:07):
when when there's news breaking. The good news is that
right now, you know, it's nine pm Eastern time, six
pm Pacific. The news, especially on a Friday, is going
to slow down a bit. But still, I've got my alerts,
I've got everything pinging at me. And that brings up
the other reason that I generally I haven't done live
shows in a while is because, for whatever reason, I

(03:31):
found the perfect setup with OBS. I'm able to produce
the show exactly the way that I want it. But
for whatever reason, notifications that come in through the desktop
will hit the audio on my show and I can't
I can't quiet it. And one of the one of
the desktop notifications that I get is through Telegram. Telegram

(03:56):
is what I used to Wait. We have all the
various people out there quote unquote spies and sources and
news alerters, whatever you want to call them, they're out there,
and they hit me on Telegram. That's how That's how
I get breaking news as it's happening. People alert me,
Hey this just popped up. Hey go check this out. Hey,

(04:16):
you know here's a big story. This is one of
the reasons that we're able to run the ship over
there so so leanly. I mean, for a site that
gets ten million visitors a month to be operated on
such a such a a shoe string budget, because the
revenues is still minimal even with that many paid views.
To be able to run it on a shoestring budget

(04:37):
requires me to have other people out there sending me
stories in real time, and we have to be able
to get them fast. I mean, as they're happening breaking news.
We want to be better than Drudge, better than all
the other the actual not the Dudge is a conservative aggregator,
but the actual conservative aggregators. We want to we want

(05:00):
to beat them. In generally speaking, we do. I mean,
I am very blessed with this little army of informant
sources whatever. They keep me up to date, and there's time.
There are times when we get a story up there
long before some of the other conservative news aggregators out there,
and that's that's our strength. Are superpowered. It helps us

(05:23):
quite a bit, but as a result makes it challenging
to do a full blown live show. So we are
going to try to start doing this every day, every night,
every evening, do this show, and I'm gonna see is
it possible to keep my You know, I'm looking at
my notifications over here. I've got my studio over here,

(05:44):
got the stories that we're going to be running. I've
got my timer, I've got my video. I'm watching live chat.
Can we do it? Can we do it? I think
we can. I think we can. I think with your help. No,
I'm just kidding. You don't have to do anything. You
just have to listen in comment and all that good stuff.
The other challenge that I have as far as doing

(06:04):
my shows is that I'm a drinker.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
Now.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
I don't drink alcohol. I drink beer or some drinks
probably once every two or three years. Not much of
a drinker. But I have to because when I talk,
I talk so rapidly. I just keep going blah blah blah,
barely breathe. I have to drink a lot, and so
otherwise I cough as I just did, so making sure

(06:29):
that I stay hydrated. That's hard on a live show
when you're going for four hours at a time. One
superpower I have I don't have to use the restroom
very often as long as I. I mean, I can
go an entire show, regardless of how long it is,
without having to leave this desk. All of this is

(06:52):
way more information than you guys wanted to hear. But
I'm stalling in a way. The other aspect of it
is that I like to dive straight into a show.
Challenges is that when you go live on Rumble, especially
since we're doing you know we're not, we don't haven't
been doing set times. When you go live on Rumble,
you kind of got to wait for the audience to
get there right sometimes. And the same thing with X.

(07:15):
We're broadcasting on X. We do have a YouTube channel.
I know, I know that there's what three or four
of you maybe that watch over there, but I have
to keep that up. People ask me, why do you
even bother with YouTube? They've banned you like three and
a half times. You can't say certain things on there.
The only reason we keep YouTube channel at all is

(07:35):
for the sake of search. People do need to hear
the stories that we publish, and it's not always just
the conservative or alternative media consumers. YouTube is the venue
through which I can alert people, like we had a
semi relatively important story pop up a week ago and
we were able to get it out through the normal channels,

(07:57):
but on the YouTube channel was actually able to to
go semi viral, at least from my tiny YouTube channel,
and it went semi viral because it was information that
other people aren't willing to talk about on YouTube. So
so yeah, so we keep it up there as well.
So anyway, let's with that said, let's get started. Let's

(08:18):
get this first.

Speaker 3 (08:19):
First.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
Let's start off with some good news. All right, this
is this to me, it really made my day when
I watched this.

Speaker 4 (08:26):
Trump has promised to carry out the largest deportation operation
in US history, and before those operations begin, some migrants
are already choosing to leave the country voluntarily. News Nations
hor Ventura joins US Live from San Antonio, Texas this
morning with more on this story, or Hey, how many
migrants are we actually seeing doing this leaving voluntarily.

Speaker 5 (08:50):
Right now?

Speaker 6 (08:50):
Markey, It's unclear, but we are starting to see a trend.
And this comes as cities across the US and Mexico
are now bracing for president and luxe deportation operation. But
it's hardline messaging on those deportation efforts have some migrants panicking,
and some even choosing now to self deport back to
the home countries. I spoke with immigration attorney Rolando Vascuz
who tells me that some of the immigrants that he
represents that entered under the Biden administration are now choosing

(09:13):
to return home fearing deportation under the incoming administration.

Speaker 7 (09:18):
Just as recent as yesterday, they notified me that they're
going to depart the country voluntarily and understanding that the
Trump administration is going to carry through on their promises.

Speaker 6 (09:32):
And it's not just Trump's deportation plans that influenced these decisions,
Vascae says, it's also that Mexico is now open to
accepting non Mexican deportees. Mexico's move would impact Cuban and
Venezuela migrants the most, since those countries typically do not
accept deportation flights from the US, but may from Mexico.

Speaker 7 (09:53):
This is causing for many migrants to leave on their own,
knowing that they're either going to be deported to their
home country or be deported to Mexican and they obvious
seed the overwhelming majority of them do not want to
be in Mexico, and.

Speaker 6 (10:08):
My sources in Mexico, tell me that it's likely that
cartails and Smithers will exploit, kidnap and extort those newly
deported migrants. As of right now, it's unclear if Mexico
has a plan to protect those deported migrants.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
Market.

Speaker 4 (10:21):
Yeah, borders about to change on Monday, at least, that's
what voters were promised. Jorhevn Tura, Thank you so much,
live from San Antonio this morning.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
Trump, He's coming, Tom Holman is coming. He's coming for them,
and they know it. They know that their time is
very limited, that the deportations are going to start. Tom
Holman has said he would start it on day one.
People have asked him, journalists, reporters have asked him, you
know what sort of budget are you looking at? And
he keeps replying with the right answers. He keeps saying,

(10:49):
you know what the what is the budget? What is
the price that you would pay to secure our nation's
borders to improve national security in general, considering my theory
that there is a lot of shenanigans happening regarding the
LA fires, regarding the drones, regarding all of these various

(11:10):
risks that were facing as a nation, Securing the borders
is top priority, but it goes beyond just preventing more
people from coming in. We've got to get rid of
the people that have already made it across, and thankfully
some of them are seeing them riding on the wall
and leaving now. I would argue that a lot of
those who are leaving are those that have the most
to lose. In other words, they are the people that
are probably more I don't know, criminals, more aligned with

(11:36):
possible terrorist ties. Before still currently technically for another day
or two, but before they were given free reign across
the nation. They were allowed to go do essentially whatever
they wanted to do under Alejandro Mayorcus, under Joe Biden,
under Joe Biden's handlers, the globalist leak cabal, all they

(12:00):
allowed all of this to happen. And now with a
new sheriff coming into town, a couple of them are
really a sheriff and his deputy, Sheriff Trump and deputy
Home and coming into town, they realize that they they
aren't going to be able to do what they were
doing before, what they've done for the last four years,
and as a result, they're making the tough decision you know,

(12:22):
they can either get to ported and a lot of
them will get to ported into Mexico and become victims
of the cartel. Some of them will cartels, some of
them will make it back home and then try to
figure it out from there. Others are saying, you know what,
there's nothing for us hearing, and I think a lot
of them are also thinking we were total it was
going to be great and it's just not. You know,

(12:42):
you see these people complaining at the quote unquote migrant
shelters talking about how they were thinking that things are
going to be different. The jobs are going to be
handed to them, some of them, but that the food
would be better, the accommodations would be better. They thought
that America being the land of opportunity and so super
rich and everybody's everybody's just watching Netflix all day, they

(13:03):
thought they were going to get that life. They were
promised that life, many of them were, And as a
result of not receiving that life, maybe they're happy to
go back to their homeland. At least then they will
have people around them who have family and support mechanisms
and they don't have to rely on American whatever you

(13:24):
want to call it. The strange system in America that
it says, hey, come on into our sanctuary city, but leave. Hey,
we got a spot for you know, we don't. I
don't look. I know that that these people, these illegal aliens,
they broke the laws. They broke the law by coming

(13:46):
over here. But I'm not completely unsympathetic to the ones
who came over here under false pretenses. You could say
they were stupid for thinking that they were going to
be getting so such great opportunities in the United States
of America. But maybe they were just trying to get
out of a bad situation. By no means. Am I saying, oh, well,

(14:06):
we shouldn't deport them because they were cond No deport them,
deport them all. I'm just saying that we can't. There
are certain people that we should villainize. Those are the criminals,
the terrorists, the people that are trying to cause harm,
the people that are causing harm, the gang members from Venezuela,
the rapists, the murderers, tens of thousands of them, perhaps
hundreds of thousands of them. And then of course there

(14:28):
are the they say three hundred thousand, I think it's
actually much higher than that. The number of children who
have been trafficked into the United States and then just
disappeared gone. Obviously most of them, many of not most,
are being used for child sexual activities. It's depraved. They
needed a flow, they, being the powers to be, needed

(14:51):
a new fresh flow of children for sacrifice, for their
for their false gods, their sexual escapades, whatever. So they
they say, hey, come on over, bring your kids.

Speaker 8 (15:05):
Ah.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
It's just disgusting, terrible, terrible stuff. Other big news from today,
we did have the Supreme Court, of course, declined to
stop the TikTok ban. It's supposed to go into effect
on Sunday, Joe Biden's last day, but he has declined
to enforce it, putting it squarely on President Trump's shoulders.
Now ninety nine times out of one hundred, and that's

(15:26):
not an exaggeration, literally ninety nine times out of one hundred,
when government starts to ban things, starts to impose their will,
It starts to avoid the free market, get involved in
any form of commerce, any preventing any company from being
able to do business the way that they want to
do business. I'm against it. This is the exception. This
is that one out of one hundred where I wholeheartedly

(15:48):
agree with banning TikTok. Let's get into it though. This
is a recap from Amy Howe over at Scotus Blog.
Supreme Court upholds TikTok ban. Supreme Court on Wednesday unanimously
upheld a federal law that will require TikTok to shut
down in the United States unless its Chinese parent companies
can sell the US sell off the US company by

(16:11):
January nineteenth. In an unsigned opinion, in other words, we
don't know who wrote it. The justices acknowledge that for
more than one hundred and seventy million Americans, the social
media giant offers a distinct and expansive outlet for expression,
means of engagement, and a source of community. Those are
the good parts. But the Court concluded that Congress has
determined that divestiture is necessary to address its well supported

(16:36):
national security concerns regarding TikTok's data collection practices and relationship
with foreign adversaries. And I was very concerned, I really was.
I was concerned going into this case thinking that because
if we were to go by the letter of the law,
there's a possibility that some of the justices would say
we're gonna decline we're gonna overturn this, We're gonna stop it,

(16:59):
because because it really is sort of an attack on
the First Amendment, I thought that they would possibly not
see the reality. This is not an attack on the
First Amendment. This is not government stifling the expression of
individuals or even a company. The reason being is because
what they're and Neil Gorsik was the only one who

(17:19):
actually sort of came out against this concept. He ended
up still signing with the other justices, but he thinks
that it is a sort of a First Amendment case,
but he still understood the threats there. I was scared
that more of them would and I'm very thankful that
they did not. This is not about the First Amendment.
This is not about about stifling innovation or preventing anybody

(17:42):
from being able to speak freely. They can still speak freely. Okay,
they still have venues, these TikTok influencers that are going
to lose money. And I feel bad for him, but
they're going to lose money, they're going to lose their livelihood.
They can and should go to wherever his finds anything
else Instagram, I don't care YouTube shorts. Find something different

(18:05):
because The risks associated with TikTok are real. This isn't
like some theoretical thing. This has been demonstrated. Data is
being collected and people are being manipulated. Now you can
argue that the manipulation aspect of it falls under the
category of free will. And if we're you know, if
they're going to manipulate China, if they're going to manipulate

(18:26):
people through TikTok, that's really on the people, right. The
problem is that they did it. They won. I mean
one hundred and seventy million people. We're talking about basically
an entire generation that has been dramatically influenced. Their lives
have been changed as a result of this app. So

(18:46):
combine that with the data collection, the severe data collection
that the Chinese Communist Party is engaged in with TikTok,
and it's a no brainer. This is where you know
a lot of people are coming out because President Trump
has said that he's going to try to figure out
a way to unban TikTok. If he wants to unbent

(19:08):
ban TikTok, then get Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos or
somebody else to buy it. That's it. Make sure that
the servers are here cleared of any back ends spywear,
prevent it from being used by the Chinese Communist Party
against us, because that's exactly what is happening today. They

(19:32):
use it for propaganda. They use it for to know
not just our whereabouts, but our likes, our dislikes. They're
able to glean more information than you could possibly than
you could possibly understand, more than I can understand. And
I've done quite a bit of research into this. TikTok
is dangerous, and President Trump's attempts to slow or stop
the banning, I disagree. Is it like, oh my gosh,

(19:57):
he's he unbanned TikTok and and now I'm not a
Trump's support or No, it's not all like that. I
mean he's still he's still my guy, right, I just
disagree on this particular issue. If he wants to go
about fixing it, then great, fix it. But the only
way to fix it is to have it sold in,
to decouple it from the Chinese Communist Party. No data

(20:20):
going to them, no manipulation, no propaganda. No, And we're not.
When I say propaganda propaganda, it's like, oh, you can't
have propaganda, No, you can it's legal. What's not legal
is that this is TikTok is one gigantic psyop that
is designed to for example, okay, one could make a
very distinct argument, and a very accurate argument that part

(20:43):
of the rise of such things as ozebic and other damaging,
damaging drugs, damaging practices, the rise of these things can
be attributed in many ways to TikTok and the influencers
that are either manipulated or paid or bribed or blackmail
or whatever into promoting anti American and very dangerous everything,

(21:08):
whether it's practices, products, it's just it's got to go.
So if if they want to sell, they've got a
couple of days left, I mean they got what a
day and a half, right, two days? If they want
to sell it, sell it, get your money, take take

(21:28):
your cash, and go away and then fix TikTok. Clear
it out. Change the algorithm to where it's it's not
just about destroying Americans. I mean the whole to keep
in mind, you know what is it. It's not fat positive,
that's what I body positive, Like, the entire body positive
movement can be attributed to TikTok okay, So they are

(21:49):
literally encouraging Americans, especially youthful Americans, to practice extremely unhealthy lifestyles.
And that's just a tip of the iceberg. I could
go into it all day. I'm not going to, though,
you hopefully get the idea. This again. Ninety nine times
out of one hundred, when government starts to meddle with
any company, any any freedom, any right, any free market component,

(22:13):
I am against it. I am wholeheartedly against it. I
don't want them banning things left and right, willy nilly,
I don't want them banning anything. Really. Okay, let the
people decide, Let the people make mistakes. But when it
comes to TikTok, too much of a risk, too many
dangers associated with that particular app Let's take a quick break.

(22:37):
When we get back, we'll be talking about talking about
the inauguration. The inauguration got moved crazy stuff. Last year,
my long term storage food company, Prepper Farms, was partnered
with and actually owned by another corporation. I know that
nobody knew this. Very few people were even aware that

(22:59):
this was the case. Because our production, our systems, everything
was in place and working just as it should be.
People would go they would put in promo code JDR
at prepperfarms dot Com, they would receive the maximum possible
discount as always, and then they would get their long
term storage beef things. What you didn't know and what

(23:19):
we can now explain now is that this year, in
twenty twenty five, we have gone back to the original
ownership structure. And I'm very excited about that because that
puts me finally back more in charge. And I am
super excited about that concept. Not because I crave power
by any means, but because I feel that as an
America first veteran owned company, that we need to focus

(23:42):
on helping Americans to prepare for whatever is to come,
whether it's natural disasters or emergencies, or dedollarization, food crises,
bird flu, whatever it is, we do expect something to happen,
which is why we built prepperfarms dot Com in the
first place. The idea here is to get high quality,
all American, all Texas beef, thet the good stuff, Rabbi

(24:05):
New York strip tenderloin, all of that good stuff and
freeze dry it naturally to give it a at twenty
five year shelf life. We don't add any preservative. There's
only one one ingredient. And that's beef last twenty five
years in the in the bag, and that's that's awesome.
So support this show, support me, support yourself and your family.

(24:27):
Protect yourself for the future by stocking up on long
term storage, high quality beef. Go to prepperfarms dot com.
That's prepperfarms dot com. Use promo code at JDR, and
you will receive the maximum possible discount.

Speaker 9 (24:50):
You know.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
Before we get into Sorry, I just get a kick out.
I have to remember to put in my swoosh. The
swoosh is the is the That's where I can isolate
it and then I know when segments begin an end, right,
I keep forgetting to swosh my way between different segments
so that I can PARTI it out more easily later on. Sorry,

(25:13):
before we get into the inauguration, I want to reiterate
play a short video. You reiterate the notion that this
whole oh, you know, banning this and banning that is
good generally speaking, as I said, it's not. I'm not
a fan of bands, especially as it pertains to the
free market and one item that or one I guess

(25:35):
industry really that we're probably going to see a whole
lot of bands as the Big Food, Big Egg, and
possibly even Big Pharma. We'll see. But the Make America
Healthy Again movement, the Robert F. Kennedy Junior RFK Junior
movement through the Department of Health and Human Services, assuming
that he gets confirmed, Lord willing, he will, He's going

(25:57):
to start going after a lot of a lot of people.
He's gonna start going after hopefully a lot of products.
And I say hopefully because there are certain things that
are that are legitimately dangerous and that should have been
pulled off the market long ago. Now this for those
who aren't familiar with Gubba Homestead, I'm not sure I
forgot her her actual name full name, uh. But for

(26:21):
those who aren't familiar, she is. She is a young homesteader, obviously,
and she is engaged in, you know, trying to live
a more natural life. But she's obviously she's she's putting
out videos on TikTok funny enough, but also on YouTube
x places like that. She's she's also a conspiracy theorist,

(26:45):
and she highlights the recent band on die red dye
number number three, right, red dye number three, that that
is hypocritical because it's something that should have been done
a long time ago. They've known about the dangers for
quite a while. So when she, and she's a little
bit cynical about us, said we shouldn't be cheering this,

(27:06):
I'm gonna cheer it because again, knowing that we know
what they knew and when they knew it, and knowing
that then there's a lot of things that we can cheer.
I'm not going to sit here and say, well, it
should have been banned long ago, so therefore I'm not
going to be happy about it getting banned now. I'm
going to disagree with her there, but her point is
definitely well taken. Watch so we are being.

Speaker 5 (27:27):
Told that red three being banned in our food is
a huge win. But let me tell you why this
really is not a win. Let's look at this article
from nineteen ninety, So thirty five years ago, FEA banned
some uses of red number three additive. So this is
a quote from doctor Lewis Sullivan, who was the Secretary

(27:49):
of Health at the time. There have been laboratory studies
which showed that very high doses of red number three
administered directly in the diet caused cancer in rats. So
they knew red number three and mister directing diet caused
cancer and rats, and they still left it in your
food for thirty five years. This is why when you

(28:12):
outsource your thinking, your well being, your health to these places,
you're just going to end up like the rats in
the experiment. So Red three being removed from our food
now is really not the win you think it is.
Here is how you actually win. You stop buying the
ultra process junk food that has those cancer causing ingredients

(28:32):
in it. You start sourcing local. You take control of
your diet and stop relying on politicians and places that
don't care about you. Remember, they knew what it did
and they still left it in your food.

Speaker 1 (28:47):
Point made. Point made. And look, while on one hand,
I wholeheartedly agree with her, and I think that we
need to take responsibility for our own food consumption, the ingredients.
We need to be able to source everything. My wife
and I we have a well it's odd, it's funny,
but we get great joy out of our early Thursday

(29:10):
morning deliveries. That's when we get our food from the
local farmers market. We go online. They've got a nice
little website. We're able to pick out what food we need.

Speaker 8 (29:19):
We need.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
And it's a co op of local farmers, almost all
either organic, regenerative both, and they deliver this food and
it's always comes to like one am on Thursday morning,
which is great, and we're always up and so it's
sort of like check, go see, let's see if we

(29:40):
got their food. And it's like, oh my gosh, look
it's about joy, you know, or whatever. It's fun. I mean,
we get a kick out of it. We start making
our meal plan for the week. We know what kind
of food goes into our body, we know what kind
of food goes into our children's bodies, and that's super
important and I recommend that for everybody. But here's the thing.

(30:01):
Let's face it, vast majority of Americans, even though it
is rising, by the way, the whole idea of avoiding
ultra processed foods and getting into more whole foods, not
the not the grocery chain, but not anything wrong with that,
but getting into more real, legitimate, actual natural foods and
replacing our diets, fixing our diets. I should say that's

(30:25):
that is growing, but still the vast majority of Americans
are just gonna go to the grocery store and go
to Kroger's, go to Albertson's whatever and grab the Dorito's,
grab this, grab that. So to some extent, I am
very happy that's something. There's no there's no caveat there.
I am very pleased that hopefully Lord Willing RFK Junior

(30:46):
and his team will be able to to determine. Hey, look,
this study shows that this stuff is bad for us.
They've known about it. This company here, company A, and
B and X have all known about it for a
long time. They know that it's is and they know
that it causes cancer. That causes this causes that scientific
studies demonstrated. So let's get rid of it. They do

(31:08):
that in Europe, they do that in other other places.
Why are we the outlier? Look, I don't mind America
being the outlier, or even America being the thought leader
in most things. In this case, we're not. We are
We're the backwards ones. We're the ones that are like, hey, yeah,
let's poison our own people more so than they end

(31:32):
up poisoning themselves. So yeah, so I'm looking I'm excited.
I'm looking forward to it. But this next story, this
next story is one that initially my alarm bells went off. Okay,
I'll admit it. When I first heard that the inauguration
was being moved indoors, first thing I thought was, Uh, oh,
they know something that they're not telling us. They they

(31:54):
have intelligence that says there's going to be a massive
terrorist attack that's been planned on the capital, that they're
going to go after Trump, and so they're moving indoors
for safety precautions, and they're just using the weather as
an excuse. But I did look into it, and I
came to the conclusion that it probably really is the weather.

(32:16):
I even went back. I started looking at historical January twentieth,
twenty seventeen, January twentieth, twenty twenty one, twenty seventeen, twenty thirteen,
started looking back, what is the weather in DC?

Speaker 6 (32:27):
You know?

Speaker 1 (32:27):
Is this odd? And I realized, at least going back
twenty years, it's not. I mean, it's the weather's was
in the forties for every inauguration that I went back. Now,
my wife is going to take it back even further,
but you could say within the last twenty years, that's
when I guess more precautions are being taken when it
comes to weather, right, and it is the forecast shows

(32:48):
that it's going to be some Some are saying it
could be as low as the teens. But at the
highest it could be is in the twenties. And that's cold.
That is cold. So so yeah to the news. To
the point of the news. CBS News is reporting that
Trump inauguration ceremony moving inside the capital due to freezing

(33:10):
temperatures Monday's inauguration. We see get rid of that. Monday's
inauguration ceremony for President Trump and VP Advance will take
place inside the Capitol due to dangerously low temperatures. Trump
announced on social media on Friday, there is an arctic
blast sweeping the country. Trump wrote on truth social I
don't want to see people hurt or injured in any way. Therefore,

(33:31):
I've ordered the inauguration address, in addition to prayers and
other speeches, to be delivered in the United States Capital Rotunda,
as was used by Ronald Reagan in nineteen eighty five,
also because of very cold weather. So apparently there is
some historical precedents to this. Temperatures are expected to be
in the teens and low twenties on Monday, with heavy winds.
Whether forecasters are also predicting snow the day before, all right,

(33:55):
So after doing a little bit of research on this,
I came to the conclusion that, you know what, no
conspiracy here, the FBI, Secret Service, everybody's been talking about
the potential for violence, for even terrorist attacks on inauguration Day.
So I'm seeing this as a positive. Now, it sucks

(34:18):
because you're talking what like one hundred thousand people traveling
to DC. They were like seventy percent full in their
bookings at hotels, and they're going to give them a
couple of I think one stadium where they can go
to and watch watch the proceedings on the screen live.
But that only fits like twenty thousand people, So there's
gonna be a whole bunch of people there with nothing
to watch. That sucks. Okay, that does suck, But I'm

(34:44):
happy by it, I admitted I was. I've been saying.
I said in yesterday's show or maybe even this morning show,
we need to pray for President Trump, pray for protection.
And I would argue it's a possibility. You know, I
don't know, I don't know what God's think thinking or
how he acts. I just go with it, right, but
I think it's definitely possible. Maybe there was a massive

(35:08):
terrorist attack that was planned for inauguration day, and just maybe,
just maybe this is the hand of God protecting our nation,
protecting the president, the vice president, the people there, and saying,
you know what, let's let's make a little bit cold

(35:28):
and let's kind of put it on Trump's heart to
move it, move it indoors that let's ruin the plans
of the terrorists or whoever it was that was planning
to attack. We'll never know, of course. I mean if like,
you can't disprove anything that I just said, and nor
could I prove anything that I said, I'm just saying
in my heart, I think that's at least a possibility

(35:49):
that this is a this unfortunate change of plans is
actually possibly a blessing in disguise. Speaking of blessings in disguise,
I want to highlight this guy. This videos was sent
to me, and the funny part is it was sent

(36:10):
to me as HM, is this somebody that we need
to watch for? Okay, they were saying, you know this,
this guy seems to be a rising star. His name
is Jason Paul and he is h He's out of Massachusetts.
He came from Connecticut, moved out to Massachusetts. He's running
for the DNC chair. He wants to leave the Democrat

(36:32):
Party and all that good stuff, as so does do
a lot of people. Maryon Williamson is in there. She
actually makes a brief appearance in this video. But they
were asking, you know, what is the problem, what happened?
Why did the Democrats lose so badly? Right? And Mary
Williamson starts to explain how it was because there was

(36:54):
no open primary, and you know, we were kind of
stuck with Joe Biden for a while, and then by
the time they got rid of Joe's too late. And
that's why, you know, if we had had an open
primary from the beginning, then then all these things would
be different. We wouldn't have had Joe in there for
very long. As far as the candidate, Kamala probably would
not have won the nomination if if she had to

(37:14):
go up against other Democrats. And therefore that's why we
lost to Donald Trump. That's what she was saying. And
this Jason Paulk had disagreed. And again I'm highlighting this
because somebody sent this to me. As you know, this
is this the next the next, big, big Democrat to
watch and I don't think so. But you watch and

(37:37):
try not to laugh Trump.

Speaker 10 (37:39):
The Democratic Party by suppressing that primary.

Speaker 6 (37:41):
Open the door onttle time.

Speaker 9 (37:43):
But let me ask those on the stage here, show
up hands, show up hands. Does anyone disagree with miss
Williamson on her point about the process. Does anyone on
the stage disagree with miss Williamson about the process.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
Mister Paul, our problem is we trusted you all.

Speaker 11 (38:05):
Your job was to inform the American people about what
was going on in this country. But instead of informing
the American people what was going on in this country,
you asked the same kind of gotcha questions that I
am so sick and tired of hearing from journalists in
this country. Joe Biden today, good job as president, he
got good things done, and none of you ever said

(38:27):
it because you wanted to ask what's wrong with Joe
Biden today?

Speaker 1 (38:30):
What's wrong with Joe Biden today?

Speaker 11 (38:31):
What's wrong with Joe Biden today?

Speaker 12 (38:33):
And I am done? And because the media didn't inform
the American people about what was going on, it became
impossible for us to get any message out. And because
we couldn't get any message out, nobody knew what we did,
and that's why we lost the damn election, and it's
your people's fault and I'm sick of it.

Speaker 1 (38:50):
I'm sorry. Well, he's definitely passionate and he's definitely wrong. No,
it wasn't. It wasn't that Joe Biden was great and
that the media should have been been highlighting how great

(39:11):
he was. This guy's an idiot, okay, And if this
is it, I hope he wins. Okay. I hope that
he takes his delusional ideas and leads the DNC to
further failure in twenty twenty six and twenty twenty eight
and beyond, because this guy's an idiot. So the last
time that I saw, and there was a time, I

(39:32):
don't know, this is the last time. This was the
most striking time to me when I actually saw a
quote unquote rising star in the Democrat Party. This is
back in two thousand and fourth during the Democrat National Convention,
and they brought out this guy that was being I
remember very vividly, considering that I only watched it once
for it to be still stuck in my memory. So
so well, twenty years later is telling. They brought out

(39:53):
this guy young senator been in the center for like
two years, and you know, they introduced him as a
rising star and the Democrat Party, and I was watching him.
Within like fifteen or twenty seconds, I'm like, holy crap,
this guy's good. Oh goodness. And of course I'm sure
you know that was Barack Obama. That was the last
time when a quote unquote Democrat rising star truly scared me.

(40:14):
I take that back, okay, And I'm about to lose
a whole bunch of credibility when I say this, But
there was one other time when a quote unquote rising
star in the Democrat Party impressed me and actually made
me a little bit worried about his ability to rise

(40:35):
in power. And I'm ashamed to admit, but you know what,
when we make I got Barack Obama right obviously, but
the guy, the follow up guy, the next Barack Obama
in my mind at the time. We have to learn
from our mistakes. And when I first saw this guy speak,

(40:57):
I thought, Okay, that's not quite Obama, but he's he
seems extremely intelligent. I started looking into him, his his
history and in military intelligence, his history in all these
various like his his pedigree, Rhodes Scholar. It's like, oh
my gosh, this guy's This guy seems like he could
be a major risk. He could pose a challenge for

(41:21):
the Republicans to be able to defeat this guy. And
I started looking into him and I thought, I'm just
gonna go out and say it. I thought Pete Boodh
Judge was a rising star. I really did. I thought, Wow,
this guy and now a few things that I didn't
know about him when I had made that determination. I

(41:44):
didn't realize how small he was. I mean, the guy's
guy's pretty tiny, right, and that's hard. Look, I don't care.
You can say all you want about size and this
it makes a difference. It makes a difference, It really
actually does. I mean, it will be hard for any
guy under we'll say five foot ten, maybe even five nine.

(42:05):
It would be hard for any guy under five nine
to win the presidency. It would be hard for any
any woman under five six or five seven, maybe we'll
say five to six. It will be hard for any
woman under five to six to win the presidency. There
is this notion, you know that that size matters, and
if you look at past presidents, that's that's kind of

(42:28):
kind of spot On. You know, this is why I
hate to say it, but Rhonda Santis, he might have
he might have been onto something with his his lift boots.
Because you you can't be a short dude and win
the Biggest Officer. I'm not saying you can't, It's just
it is a roadblock. And Pee Boota Judge is not
a not a big man. How tall is Pete Boota Judge.

(42:50):
That's a good question. Let's see. I know that he
comes across as small, that's for sure. He definitely comes
across is not a tall guy. He is five foot eight.
There we go, five foot eight. So yeah, it would
be tough, tough for him to win. I'm just saying.
I'm not saying it's impossible, but he's And then the

(43:15):
obviously there's a lot of a lot of other things
that I didn't see early on that that would prevent
him from being an actual risk to the Republican Party
in any form or fashion. Yeah, let's get let's take
another short break. Let's go with this one another short break,

(43:36):
and when we get back, we'll talk about Willow. Yeah,
let's talk about Willow. No, not the not the movie,
not definitely not the sequel or the failed television show
Let's talk about Willow from Google Dangerous, Dangerous Stuff.

Speaker 1 (45:26):
Rumblegold dot com good place to check out. I changed
my mind. We're gonna save Willow for after I do
the replay, not later on the show, because I want
to be able to focus a good amount of time
on it. Artificial intelligence, quantum computing and the combination thereof

(45:46):
as is going to be a massive threat. It already is,
really but it's going to be an existential threat to
the human race, at the very least of Western society,
but probably to the human race as a whole. And
I need more people to be aware and to be
prepared because it is it is getting to that point

(46:08):
to where we have to start really thinking about how
are we going to protect ourselves. We got good times coming, folks.
I don't want to be dooming gloom. President Trump. I
think he is going to go in there and he's
going to fix a whole lot of things. He's going
to make America much better. And it's not just him.
He's got a good cabinet for the first time. Okay.

(46:29):
You know, we went through four years of just a
horrible candidate, our cabinet, cabinet, okay, and then we followed
up with that horrible cabinet with the entire horrible regime
under Biden. Now we've got President Trump, rejuvenated, smarter, okay,
lessons learned from the last last go round, and with

(46:50):
a far much, much much better cabinet behind him. So
I do believe that he is going to be able
to accomplish a whole lot. But just because he can
do a bunch doesn't mean that the threats go away.
The dollarization is still a threat. AI is a huge threat,

(47:10):
And even though we are going to be able to
make a lot of headway with deportations, national security is
still being threatened. We still have a countless I don't
know if it's tens of thousands. It could be, and
I don't want to scare you, but it could be
literally hundreds of thousands of potential terrorists here in the

(47:31):
United States right now, and not just from like one
country or one group or It's not just all al
Qaeda or ISIS or whoever we've got China. We have
other people in Terrorism is not just a matter of
flying flying planes into buildings. It could be, for example,
starting fires when the conditions are ripe. It could be

(47:52):
blowing up lithium lithium battery plants, blowing up electric substations
just before winter storms. Things can start getting crazy. And
it's funny because I say terrorist, but what I'm really
referring to is gorilla warfare. This isn't necessarily about just
domestic terrorist attacks. This is about gorilla warfare being waged

(48:15):
in the United States of America today. And the difference there.
I mean with terrorism, the idea is, you want to
get as many casualties as possible. You want to be
you want everybody to know that it was an attack.
You want everybody to know that you did it and
that you're going to do it again. That's what terrorism
is about. It's about driving terror, driving fear. Gorilla warfare

(48:37):
is completely different. With gorilla warfare, you don't want anybody
to know that you did it. You don't want anybody
to know that it was even an attack. In an
ideal guerrilla warfare campaign. You're able to take out aspects
of infrastructure, aspects of military and even civilian readiness. You
want to be able to take those things out without

(48:59):
anybody being suspicious that it was an attack. You want
them to think, oh, wow, that's crazy. You know, all
these strange things happening that are destroying our economy, destroying
our food supply, destroying our infrastructure. You want them to
think that nothing is coordinated, that nothing is aligned with

(49:22):
anything else that's happening. That is guerrilla warfare, and that's
how you weaken a nation, and you want it to
be secret because you want to be able to do
it again. Okay, you don't want to blow up a
substation and say yeah, hey, we blew up the substation
to try to do harm to the infrastructure in Texas.
You would say, oh, I got oh it's just a

(49:43):
bad accident, because you want to be able to you
being if you were engaged in guerrilla warfare in the
United States of America, you'd want to be able to
do it again and again and again until somebody starts
getting suspicious and saying, hmm, I wonder, look what happened
to the food processing plants? You remember that twenty twenty one,
twenty twenty two, twenty twenty three, even when all of

(50:04):
a sudden, strangely, all these food processing plants started started
catching fire, having explosions, having industrial accidents as they were
calling them. Now, I got fact checked on this. I
was in Snopes or one of those places. They were like,
They're like, the claim that that these these food production
facilities are being sabotaged is categorically false. There's all you know,

(50:28):
It's always been happening for I checked. I fact checked
the fact checker. Okay, I went through. I used the Enemy,
I used Google News, but I went through. I went
back over fifteen years to see, you know, I'm looking
for for particular keywords of food processing plants, industrial accidents,
stuff like that, and I found that between twenty twenty

(50:51):
one in the middle of twenty twenty two, there were
more food production plant industrial accidents in that period than
in the previous fifteen years combined. So yeah, yes, I
do believe that those were part of a gorilla warfare
attack on our food supply to raise inflation, to cause

(51:14):
perhaps other countries, to allow for other countries to be
able to swoop in and buy certain things such as farmlands,
such as food production facilities. That's how gorilla warfare works,
and it's different from terrorism. So when I say that
we have threats here in the United States, Tom Holman

(51:35):
can go after a whole bunch of them. But even
with the vast powers and the vast resources that he'll
have available, it's not like he's facing tens of thousands
or hundreds of thousands. He's facing twenty or thirty million,
and they're still It's funny because there's still they being
corporate media. They're still trying to go latch onto the
old numbers. And Marco Rubio, who look not I like

(52:00):
Trump's cabinet. Marco Rubio is not my favorite pick, but
he is head and shoulders above Rex Tillerson, who was
the first Secretary of State. But here's Marco Rubio talking
about the deportations that are coming with left wing legacy
media shill Kristen Welker.

Speaker 14 (52:21):
Donald Trump has said he's willing to build migrant detention
camps and deploy the US military to deport the more
than eleven million undocumented immigrants in this country. It would
be the largest deportation operation in American history. Do you
support that plan.

Speaker 15 (52:37):
Eleven million, that's an outdate. That was the number ten
years ago. We're talking upwards a twenty twenty five maybe
thirty million. There's been almost ten million people in America's
country in the law for in the last three good question,
would you say the number varies big time? I mean
it's another nine to ten million people just in the
last three years. The answer to your question is, yes,
we cannot absorb twenty five thirty million people who entered

(52:58):
this country illegally. They're here illegal.

Speaker 1 (53:00):
What country on earth would tolerate that.

Speaker 15 (53:01):
We don't even know who some of these most of
these people are. They talk about vetting, vetting them with
what they're coming from, nations that don't even have document systems.
In many cases, Yes, we're gonna have to do something. Unfortunately,
we're gonna have to do something dramatic to remove people
from this country that are here illegally, especially people we.

Speaker 1 (53:17):
Know nothing about.

Speaker 15 (53:18):
But ten million, eleven million, that was the number fifteen
years ago. Today it's upwards of probably twenty five to
thirty million, maybe more.

Speaker 14 (53:25):
Center here's what you said about Donald Trump's mass deportations
proposals in twenty sixteen.

Speaker 15 (53:30):
Take a look, I don't think it's reasonable to say
you're going to round up into poured to eleven million people.

Speaker 1 (53:34):
I don't think it's a.

Speaker 5 (53:35):
Plan that works.

Speaker 1 (53:36):
I don't think that's a realistic policy.

Speaker 14 (53:40):
So why have you changed your mind now?

Speaker 15 (53:42):
Because the issue has completely changed. When I said that,
and back in twenty thirteen, when I was involved in
immigration reform, we had eleven twelve million people that.

Speaker 1 (53:50):
Have been here for longer than a decade.

Speaker 15 (53:52):
Now we've had almost that number in the last three
years alone from all over the world, including believe people
that I believe are terrorists, people I believe are going
to conduct terrorist attacks in this country have given the opportunity,
certainly people that were criminals in their home country. This
is a completely difference. This is not immigration you asked
me about immigration. This is mass migration. Mass migration. This

(54:12):
is an invasion of the country and it needs to
be dealt with dramatically. And by the way, I don't
my big poll follower, but polls show most Americans agree
with us on this, and of.

Speaker 14 (54:21):
Course that was an issue under former President Trump as well.
There was just a bipartisan proposal that was put on
the table that would put more funding into border enforcement
as well as limiting asylum. Republicans walked away from that.
But let me move on to my next question.

Speaker 15 (54:37):
No, no, no, we can't move on because that's not
what that bill did. That bill also created asylum officers
who ride on the border will be able to give
people asylum. And you give someone asylum right on the
border without any appeal, don't judge nothing, just an asylum officer.
They are on a path to citizen.

Speaker 1 (54:51):
O your feut. I oppose that bill.

Speaker 14 (54:53):
Your fellow Republicans said it was the best deal that
they had seen in a long long time. But cenator
which fellow Republican Center Lindsay Destiny.

Speaker 1 (55:02):
I disagree with. But I'm not in favor of asylum
officer that I would say. My least favorite, My two
least favorite legacy media shills are Joy Beharr No, she's
no sorry, Joy Reid. I got my joys confused, Joy

(55:24):
Reid and uh Jack Jake Tapper. The reason being is
that both come across as or try to come across
as you know, intellectuals, and neither of them are. Kristen
Welker is quickly becoming she She's she could by this
time next year, she could be the legacy media left
wing shill that I despise the most. She really is,

(55:47):
She's making a good run run at it. So, as
I noted if you weren't listening in the beginning of
the show, I noted that one of the reasons that
I don't do very many live shows like this or
haven't done. I will be doing the hopefully every day.
But the reason that I haven't done as many live
shows in the past is because I have other responsibilities

(56:07):
that make it difficult to do an hour, two hours,
three hours shows and I have to here in a
minute soon I have to go and do some updates
for The Liberty Daily. But I have a solution, and
I want your feedback on this. Please reach out to me.
You can reach out to me directly JD Rutger dot com,

(56:28):
slash talk, or you can hit me up on X
I have opendms X dot com, slash JD Rutger. Let
me know what you think of this this format. So
the idea is I will do my live show for
about an hour or so, and then I will replay

(56:49):
the morning show, the show that I do for Frank Speech.
I'll do a review so I do my morning show
and you can catch that one. That one gets broadcast
on my Rumble channel and everywhere else at nine am Pacific.
I'm gonna take that show and I'm going to use
that as the second hour of this show. And then

(57:16):
after that is done, and that'll give me an hour. Basically,
we're fifty six minutes where I can go and I
can work at the Liberty Daily do my thing, and
then after that the replay of that of the morning Show.
After that second hour of this live show is done,
then I come back and do another hour so that

(57:37):
we can have the full blown, full blown show that
I've been craving, dying for for a long time. Hopefully
that's a good format. You tell me, reach out to
me Jdrucker dot com slash talk or x dot com
slash jd Rucker, let me know if you think it's
a good idea, and without further ado, let's go go

(58:00):
ahead and do just that. Let's let's dive in to
the Morning Show and I will see you all again
live after well in fifty six fifty eight minutes fifty
eight minutes from now, so so stay tuned. I'll be back.

(58:48):
You're listening to the jd Rucker Show. Let's begin. Today
is the last Friday that Joe Biden will be the
person in the Oval Office part time because I know
most of the time he's actually either in a separate,
fake Oval office or he's in Delaware on the beach

(59:08):
or something. But yeah, it's his last Friday as the
potus and it's time for us to rejoice, maybe have
a good, positive, prayerful weekend. Pray for President Trump. We've
still got three days to go, folks. I know inauguration
days Monday. I just want to make sure that it
goes as smoothly as possible, So keep him in your prayers.

(59:31):
We've got an exciting show today to what are we
talking about? We had a California fire chief who had
to put out fires and save homes with milk and beer. Yes,
that actually happens. For whatever reason, over half of Californians
still think that Karen Bass and Gavin Newsom are innocent.
They're innocent. I tell you, it's not their fires, it's
climate changers or something else. We had a man who

(59:55):
is representing Health and Human Services during the operational warp
speed died suddenly. It's kind of weird Pulitzer Prize winning
cartoonist who lambasted people US conservatives for going after groomers
and hating on child pornographer as well. He turns out
allegedly he was arrested. Well, he was definitely arrested, but

(01:00:17):
he's arrested for allegedly possessing child porn. Go figure Trump,
Trump and crypto man. What a combination that's going to be.
I'm I'm next to Maha and hopefully destroying the deep state.
I would say that the crypto play is has me
most excited because it really had Kamala Harris one. I

(01:00:40):
think that bitcoin would would be dead, seriously, within within
three years. I know that it's decentralized and that can't
technically die, but I'm sure that Kamala would have tried
to figure out some way to make it die. We
got a couple of stories actually about no, we got
three three stories, three stories about the including one it's

(01:01:02):
sort of a I would say, a bombshell in a way,
and President Trump is getting involved in that one. The
other two or less bombshells. More more analysis, but good analysis,
my analysis, and as we know, my analysis is the
the best analysis. Thank you all for watching the JD
Rutgers Show. It is going to be a good one,

(01:01:23):
and we're preparing for the weekend, so which I don't
have much weekend. I send the team from The Liberty
Daily home for the weekend every weekend, and I end
up running it solo and only taking naps. So there's that.
Not complaining. I love it. I'm blessed. I love it. Okay.
I have more fun on weekends being super jam packed
and busy because they get to do with my family anyway.

(01:01:46):
So there's that. All right, Let's clear our minds, clear
our hearts, maybe say a little prayer, and let's have
a very good episode of the JD Record Show. Stay tuned.
California has finished. Less than half of the population believes

(01:02:09):
that Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass are to blame for
the disasters in LA. The fires that have destroyed so
many buildings, so many homes, taken so many lives, fires
that could have and should have been prevented if there
was any level of competence in leadership in LA and
the state of California. Unfortunately, as a member of California,

(01:02:32):
I can vouch for the notion that most Californians just
don't buy it. They're not I don't know if they
just if they're delusional. I don't know if they're sticking
their head in the sand. I don't know if they're
just partisan hacks. They say, Oh, there's a D next
to Karen Bass's name, and there's a D next to
Gavin Newsom's name, Therefore they couldn't have done anything wrong.

(01:02:53):
Or maybe they're just buying into the propaganda that this
is all about high winds and dry conditions and that
it's not about empty reservoirs or water being horribly, horribly
managed at a time when it was most needed. An
article over at the Gateway Pundit highlights this, says the

(01:03:16):
Los Angeles area fires have charred the popularity of California
Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, while
showing a deep division in who responds blamed for the fires.
Both of them are stone cold in Coompton. According to
President Trump, and there was a nice video that I'm
not going to play a little bit of language in it,

(01:03:36):
so we're gonna skip that one. But it was it
was good. It basically highlighted the fact that California is beautiful,
has great land, great everything, but the leadership has just
decid decimated the state over the last last couple of
decades to the point that it is no longer really livable.
Twenty eight percent believe that Gavin Newsom is a great

(01:03:57):
deal responsible, and about twenty percent say that he's somewhat responsible.
That's forty eight percent. Now that means that fifty two
percent I either don't know who to blame, or they
blame they barely blame Newsome and or Bass, or they
don't blame them at all. In other words, they feel
that there is no leadership gap. That the fire just happened.

(01:04:19):
The reservoirs couldn't have been refilled, the fire trucks couldn't
have been been repaired in time. The budgets had to
be cut because you know, you had to make room
for for dumb stuff. As a matter of fact, let's
go ahead and play that video. I've got a video
forgot the girl's name? I think it's on here. Video

(01:04:41):
detailing some of the things that were added to the
budget under Karen Bass that the press should not have been.

Speaker 3 (01:04:51):
Karen Mass used fire department money to fund a queer
occult interest in ebony theater and a trans cafe. So,
but she had tried to slash and was forty nine
million dollars from the Los Angeles Fire Department budget one
day before the Palisades Fire started. This came after more
than seventeen million dollars in cuts the previous year. Okay,

(01:05:12):
she didn't want to waste money because we're in a
state that's under a constant threat of disaster.

Speaker 5 (01:05:18):
So what did we fund instead?

Speaker 3 (01:05:19):
What did we use that money for instead? Well, the
budget resolution for twenty twenty four to twenty twenty five
fiscal year shows some foolish spending. So there was a
midnight stroll transgender cafe, which Carabas suggested a one hundred
thousand dollars slash fund, and that amount was fully approved

(01:05:40):
by city council. I saw a video today of just
like one hundred fire trucks sitting there that needed to
prepare we could use, Thank God for this cafe.

Speaker 1 (01:05:51):
It's Emily Saves America. By the way, is the name
of the person. And did she say queer occult interests?
I think that's what it's said, and that's weird. I
don't even know what that is, but apparently California is
spending money on it. At Los Angeles specifically, is spending
money on it and not nearly enough on their firefighters.

(01:06:13):
Look if less than half of Californians believe that neither
Karen Bass nor Gavin Newsom are to blame at all
for this disaster, that they don't have any responsibility or
maybe very very very little responsibility for what's happened, then
it's no wonder Democrats continue to win elections in this state.

(01:06:34):
It's no wonder that the state continues to suffer, and
yet the people just throw their hands up and say,
we don't know. It's it's those darned Santa Anna wins
that are causing all the problems. The man who represented
the Department of Health and Human Services during Operation Warp
Speed has died suddenly at the age of sixty five.

(01:06:56):
The cause of death has not been revealed. According to
a news dot Com, Paul Mango, Warp Speed leader and
Trump advisor, dies at sixty five. He was an integral
part of the Trump administration's drive to invent coronavirus vaccines
and treatments. He joined the Trump's Health and Human Services
Department in twenty nineteen. As Deputy chief of Staff. During

(01:07:18):
the pandemic, he became the agency's chief liaison to Operation
Warp Speed. He published a memoir about those months called
Warp Speed, Inside the Operation that Beat COVID, the critics,
and the odds. He wrote that in twenty twenty two
and highlighted how Maderna's cooperation with the government in developing
clinical trials and delivering millions of doses should be lauded. Again.

(01:07:43):
Dead at sixty five. No cause of death has been revealed,
and take away from that what you will. A Politzer
Prize winning cartoonist whose work has appeared in Washington Post
and other left wing media outlets has been arrested in Sacramento. Now,

(01:08:03):
the irony in this story runs very, very thick, and
it's actually very very sad as well. Gentlemen's name is
Darren Bell. He was arrested in Sacramento. His claim to
fame was, you know he again he won the Pulitzer
Prize back in twenty nineteen. He goes after conservatives hard.
He's a political cartoonist. He goes after conservatives and one

(01:08:25):
of the topics that he liked to go after when
it came to going after conservatives, was our perspectives on groomers,
on child sex, trafficking, on child pornography. Well, of course,
as one might expect, he was arrested for child pornography.
But it's actually worse than just straight up normal child porn,
which is already disgusting enough. He was actually involved in

(01:08:49):
AI generated child porn. And he was the first person
ever arrested in this particular task force, or by this
particular task force, for utilizing AI generation material and incorporating
it into existing child porn. This is something that is
I mean, the sickness, the depravity, the ills of these people,

(01:09:13):
mental illness. Some would say, I would call it demons.
According to the Sacramento b Darren Bell, a prominent Sacramento
based comic strip creator, cartoonist, and author, has been arrested
on suspicion of possessing child pornography. Darren Lawrence Bell, forty nine,
who won the twenty nineteen Politzer Prize for Editorial cartooning,

(01:09:35):
was arrested Wednesday morning at his South Sacramento home by
Sacramento County Sheriff's Office investigators. Deputies served a search warrant
Wednesday morning, against Bell following an investigation by the Sacramento
Valley Internet Crimes against Children Detective Task Force, and again
as of this month, this is the first time where
they have actually changed the rules within the task Force

(01:09:55):
to start investigating AI generated material, something they had not
done before. He was booked into the Sacramento County marin
a main jail and remains held on one million dollar bail.
He is expected to be arraigned today and in Sacramento
Superior Court. This just goes to show you, and we've

(01:10:15):
said this many times, those who who fight us, whether
they're leftists, globalists, rhinos, uniparties, swampsters, neo cons whatever, generally speaking,
when they complained about something that doesn't make sense, okay,
that is indicative of their own sins, their own evils

(01:10:41):
coming out and prompting them to defend their evils. Case
you know, case in point, here's a man who railed
against conservatives for going after groomers and child pornography, and
he himself was apparently allegedly a groomer and a child pornographer.

Speaker 1 (01:13:04):
Trump plans crypto revival with new SEC leadership. And this
is a good thing, a very good thing potentially. You know,
I am one of those who I've been somewhat skeptical
of cryptocurrencies. I'm also one that believes that if and
when the quantum AI revolution does come to pass, that

(01:13:26):
it's going to make dramatic changes to the entire cryptocurrency industry.
And we can call it an industry now, it's not
just a hobby or anything like that. A passing fat
cryptocurrency is here to stay. The only thing that could
possibly change that is if there are massive shenanigans from
either governments who want to control it, or central banks

(01:13:48):
or the globals to leak a ball which encompasses both.
Between those, there are risks, but there's risks to just
about everything. So don't say, oh, I don't trust crypto.
I trust FIAT currencies because because they're safe. I will
be one of those who will live and die by
crypto at some point in the near future. I'm still

(01:14:11):
waiting for a few things to happen, but I do believe.
I'm a believer in it, so we'll just say that.
According to this article over at the National Pulse, the
US Securities and Exchange Commission will implement sweeping changes to
its regulatory approach regarding cryptocurrency after Donald Trump is inaugurated
on Monday. It is believed the Republicans on the Commission
will swiftly move to lay the groundwork for regulatory changes

(01:14:34):
ahead of the confirmation of Paul Atkins, Trump's nominees serve
as chairman of the SEC. Atkins is slated to replace
the current SEC chairman and cryptocurrency opponent Gary Gensler, who
announced his intention to step down once Trump is sworn in. Additionally,
Commissioners Hester Pierce and Mark Yuda, known for their pro

(01:14:54):
cryptocurrency stance, are anticipated to play key roles in reshaping
SEC policies. Both have a history of working with Atkins
at the SEC in the early two thousands and are
expected to hold a majority among the political appointees commissioners.
Bottom line is, from at least a political perspective, we
know the technology is there, okay, we know that cryptocurrency

(01:15:17):
has proven to be very resilient. There are still chances
for hackers and for but generally speaking, anything that's digital
is going to have a risk of hackers because people
still give input. And when you have humans giving input,
bad passwords, sending the wrong information via insecure emails or
anything like that, you are going to run risk risks

(01:15:40):
of disaster, at least on a personal basis. But for
at least the next four years, we can expect the
US government and these Securities and Exchange Commission to operate
favorably within the cryptosphere. And that might be enough. That
might be enough, because the only thing when I say

(01:16:01):
that I'm waiting for something, I'm waiting for the indication
that crypto has a rock solid foundation. Right now, it's
greatest strength, which is decentralization, is also potentially its greatest weakness.
If crypto is able to become as secure as possible
ahead of the rise of the aforementioned quantum AI beast

(01:16:24):
that I believe is coming, and that seems to me
the most likely scenario. To be clear, I'm just calling
me hesitant, but I'm hesitant by matter of it could
be weeks before I dive full full in on into cryptocurrencies.
I know most people who are aware of basically who

(01:16:47):
have educated themselves about cryptocurrencies. Most of them, if they
have any amount of capital at all, they're putting at
least a portion of it into cryptocurrency. And I don't
blame them one bit. You know, my paranoia, if you will,
is it's not a skepticism. It really is a paranoia,

(01:17:07):
and I acknowledge that. But I'll get over it. People
are already getting over it ahead of me. So yeah,
I would say that this new development, with President Trump
behind the wheel steering the ship, cryptocurrency has a very
bright future. What is the FBI covering up by closing

(01:17:32):
their DEI office just days before the Trump inauguration? When
the news broke on Thursday, that they were shutting it down.
I thought to myself, I mean instantaneously, alarm bell started
going off. What are they trying to hide? Why would
they do it now? You know, you think they would
either do it, have done it long ago, Okay, decemberish,
we'll say, or they would have not closed it down

(01:17:55):
and forced Cash Patel and Donald Trump to do the
closing for them. You would think that if they were
truly committed to their mission of diversity, equity and inclusion,
that they would they would stay open as long as
they possibly could to spread the fairness or whatever they
think they're trying to spread. But no, they closed it

(01:18:15):
down or they're planning on closing it down basically a
day before Trump is in office and lord willing only
days or just a couple of weeks before Cash Btel
is confirmed and is in charge of the FBI. They
are hiding something. And I started looking. As soon as
the story broke, I started looking at the various conservative outlets,

(01:18:37):
alternative news outlets that were covering this. Nobody was catching on.
Everybody was like, oh, look, Trump's winning, Cash Betel's winning.
They're running scared, they're closing office early. He doesn't even
have to be in power for them to be reacting,
and I'm like, my gosh, guys, are you serious? This
makes no sense, This makes absolutely no sense. And it
wasn't until I did see somebody finally hop in and say,

(01:19:00):
you know, hey, my alarm bells are ringing too, and
it happened to be President Trump himself, he posts on
true Social We demand that the FBI preserve and retain
all records, documents, and information on the now closing DEI office.
Never should have been open, and if it was, should
have closed long ago. I agree on both counts. Why
is it that they're closing one day before the inauguration

(01:19:20):
of a new administration? The reason is corruption, and a corruption,
of course, is in all caps, as President Trump is
wont to do so. You know, you might be thinking yourself, well,
what could they It's just a DEI office. What could
they possibly be hiding? Is there anything criminal involved? I
think that there is. I think that what it will

(01:19:41):
show if they're able to preserve the documents, if they're
able to preserve the hiring and promotional practices, they will
be able to show that the FBI and possibly other
agencies have been involved in putting in the wrong people
based strictly on their whatever. Okay, they were basically doing
what DEI requires them to do. Take somebody who may

(01:20:04):
be less qualified than somebody else, but because they have
they check off more intersectionality boxes that that person is
going to get hired or promoted ahead of somebody who
is more qualified for the job. And if they were
to be able to show this and demonstrate it, that

(01:20:25):
could open them up the people involved, that could open
them up to lawsuits. That's what I think they're trying
to cover up. And hopefully Lord Willing President Trump and
his team and his attorneys and everybody else is going
in there and making sure that why they can't go
in there yet, but they're doing whatever is necessary from
a legal perspective to make sure that documents are preserved

(01:20:48):
and that hopefully cash MATEL can then go in and
or even the Inspector General can go in and investigate
and determine. Holy cow, these guys broke the law. These
guys discriminated against better candidates based strictly on wokeness. California

(01:21:13):
fire chief uses milk and beer to save two homes
in last ditch effort after finding no water in the
hose and there there you go, folks. That is the
theme for California in the early days of twenty five.
No water in the hose, No water in the hose.
This article comes to us from Richard Palina over at

(01:21:34):
the New York Post. A resourceful California fire chief used
milk and a couple of beers to save two homes,
including his brothers, as his childhood neighborhood turned into a
total nightmare during the deadly wildfires. Orange County Fire Authority
Chief Brian Phantasy told his brother and friends in Altadena,
a town he grew up in located fourteen miles from
downtown LA, that they'd be fine when the Eaton fire

(01:21:56):
broke out on Tuesday. However, the inferno hit the neighborhood
hours later, and Fantasy feared the worst when his brother's
phone stopped working when he tried to call him. So
he did what heroes do. He went up there to
his old stomping ground, to the place where his family was,
and as an experienced, experienced firefighter, he wanted to offer help.

(01:22:16):
Knowing that that there's desperate, desperate need for help in
Los Angeles right now. He learned his brother and his
family were already evacuated, but with his fifty years of
fire experience, he was horrified to find that his old
stomping grounds had turned into a total nightmare. Flames had

(01:22:37):
engulfed multiple homes in the neighborhood, but they hadn't reached
his brother's home nor the neighbor's home quite yet. He
realized that he had no water to battle the fire
when he went to cool off the neighbor's melting gas meter.
So what did he do? He went inside. He forced
his way into the house, open the refrigerator, found milk

(01:22:58):
and a couple of beers back and he poured those
those liquids, those cold liquids on the meter, and then
he pulled the meter back a bit. It wasn't completely out,
and he wasn't sure if it was going to rekindle,
but it was all he could do at the moment
to save the home. However, his efforts were enough, and
the two homes were the only ones left standing on
the block. According to two news reports, Fantasy said that

(01:23:21):
if he didn't act and try to save the homes,
it was unlikely any firefighters would arrive in time to
prevent them from burning down. With the rest of the neighborhood.
And this is a very important quote from him. It's
absolutely true, and it's terrifying if you live out here
in California. He said, we tell everybody called nine one one,
and we'll be there. This was a situation where you

(01:23:43):
call nine one one, it's unlikely we're going to be there.
And he's concerned that this is the new reality, this
is the new normal that because of just awful management,
awful leadership, awful policies in California for decades, that this
isn't the last massive destructive fire that we'll see out here,

(01:24:07):
and it might not even be the worst what we
experience as bad as things where we keep talking about,
especially the left keeps talking about, oh, it's climate change,
but but more importantly, in reality, it's heavy winds, very
dry conditions, and then combined with the poor management and arsonists, apparently,

(01:24:27):
well you're you're gonna have bad fires. But again, I
don't think this is the last one unless things drastically change.
Unless I mean, I'm not just saying Okay, well we're
gonna go ahead and fill the water reserves back up.
We're gonna get get water in the in the right
places so that we can fight fires next time. It's

(01:24:48):
not enough. They need more people, they need their equipment fixed.
Apparently there's like seventy five fire trucks just sitting there waiting.
They they're not allowed between between lack of budget to
get them fixed and too much red tape that because
you know that there's not like these seventy five trucks
are just all stalled, completely broken down, unable to move.

(01:25:12):
You know, they probably some of them, I'm sure just
need an oil change or something like that. But because
of red tape, because of California, because of progressive policies,
they're not allowed to participate in the fight. Not that
they would probably have enough people to help fight the
fires when you're faced with the lunacy and possibly the

(01:25:33):
direct guerrilla warfare attacks that are taking place as people
light more fires every single day. More arsonists are discovered
every single day, and they're ranging from some illegal aliens,
some homeless people, and some people that are like hmm,
I wonder what that person is doing and why they
are participating because they don't seem seem to be homeless,

(01:25:53):
they don't appear to be illegal aliens, and yet they're
out there lighting fires too. What is motivating them? We
don't know. It's become just an absolute debacle. And I
will tell you that. Ask somebody. I have family that
lives in Los Angeles. Praise God, they haven't been directly
affected just yet. But I mean we're literally we're keeping
the the refrigerator stocked and the spare bedroom is ready

(01:26:18):
to go just in case, because you never know. You
just never know. And I wish you could know. I mean,
I wish we could have a realistic expectation that in California,
if you call the fire department, if you call the police,
if you call emergency medical teams, if you call nine
to one one, that you're going to get a response

(01:26:39):
in a relatively timely manner. I mean, again, we're talking
about a state that, if it were a country, it'll
be the fifth biggest economy in the world. So how
can can these resource, these tremendous resources, so many people,
so much money flowing through How can how can we

(01:27:00):
be so ill prepared for pretty much everything? You know,
riots happened, you know, these could these flash what is it,
I don't even know what they're called. Where the kids
get together, like fifty of them or one hundred of
them going to like a seven eleven and mass Robin
and bolt. We've seen examples where it's like it's not

(01:27:21):
like they're running in and running out, you know, in
ninety four seconds. There was one pretty recently, it was
just a month or two ago, where this convenience store
was hit and I mean they were showing in the
surveillance video that they had called you know, the authorities
were alerted and I one was called and there were

(01:27:41):
kids still in there, stealing stuff, breaking stuff, vandalizing, trying
to get into the safe, all this stuff for like
thirty minutes. It's like, really, what was that in the
boonies or something. No, it was in the middle of
some some regular, normal city in California. But we don't
have the resources. We embrace crime. We don't do the

(01:28:08):
right things with the mentally ill. Many of them are
are homeless. We don't do anything to fix that. We
throw money at it, but that money goes to cronies
of whoever's funding the money. I mean, we're funding the money,
but whoever's dishing out the money, the politicians, the bureaucrats. Oh,
I'm getting so sick, so sick of being out here,

(01:28:33):
and again I have to be very thankful for the
blessings because where I live, we haven't been affected by
the fires. Where my daughter lives, she hasn't been affected
by the fires either, even though that she is much closer.
So you know, I shouldn't complain, but I will, because

(01:28:56):
it is really bad out here, to the point that
you have fire use in other counties having to put
out fires with milk and beer. Last year, my long
term storage food company, Prepper Farms, was partnered with and
actually owned by another corporation. I know that nobody knew this.

(01:29:19):
Very few people were even aware that this was the case.
Because our production, our systems, everything was in place and
working just as it should be. People would go, they
would put in promo code JDR at prepperfarms dot com.
They would receive the maximum possible discount as always, and
then they would get their long term storage beef things.

(01:29:40):
What you didn't know and what we can now explain
now is that this year, in twenty twenty five, we
have gone back to the original ownership structure. And I'm
very excited about that because that puts me finally back
more in charge, and I am super excited about that concept,
not because I crave power by any means, but because
I feel that, as a and America first veteran owned company,

(01:30:02):
that we need to focus on helping Americans to prepare
for whatever is to come. Whether it's natural disasters or emergencies,
or dedollarization, food crises, bird flu, whatever it is, we
do expect something to happen, which is why we built
prepperfarms dot Com in the first place. The idea here
is to get high quality, all American, all Texas beef,

(01:30:26):
the good stuff Ribbui, New York strip, tenderloin, all of
that good stuff in freeze, dry it naturally to give
it a at twenty five year shelf life. We don't
add any preservative. There's only one one ingredient and that's
beef last twenty five years in the bag, and that's awesome.
So support this show, support me, support yourself and your family,

(01:30:49):
protect yourself for the future by stocking up on long
term storage, high quality beef. Go to prepperfarms dot com.
That's prepperfarms dot Com. Use promo code a DR and
you will receive the maximum possible discount which companies are

(01:31:11):
rolling back DEI in which companies are stupid. Okay, so
that's not the actual headline from the article that I'm
going to be sharing from Axios, but it is Axios,
and to be fair, they tend to be very much
left leaning. They're also though, very well funded, and they
do very good research and unfortunately searching for a list
of companies that are abandoning DEI versus those who have

(01:31:34):
who have announced that they are committing or many times
doubling down on their commitment to DEI diversity, equity and inclusion,
or as some people like to say, it stands for
didn't earn it, whatever, however you feel. The point is
that we're gonna use Axios. We're gonna try to avoid

(01:31:54):
their politics. This particular article comes from Eleanor Hawkins over there,
and so, well, here's the thing. Before I get into
the list, just a quick note, people, I think most
everybody who's talking about this, they're saying, oh, you know,
Trump won, and therefore these companies are concerned. They're scared.
They don't want Trump coming after them, they don't want
to you know, Trump's supporters abandoning them. They saw what

(01:32:18):
happened to a bud light. YadA, YadA, YadA. I disagree.
I would say that in many, if not most, of
these cases of companies abandoning DEI, they're just using the
Trump victory as an excuse to do what they've wanted
to do for a long time, because companies that embrace DEI,
generally speaking, they're not seeing good results, not from the

(01:32:39):
DEI hires, not from the DEI policies, not from DEI consumers.
I guess I think they were hoping that by virtue
signaling they'd be able to get on the good side
of the Woll consumers, which I guess it's not working
out as well as they thought. And they definitely thought
they were going to get on the good side of

(01:33:00):
of globalist organizations, globalist companies, including for example, Black Rock,
that hasn't seemed to be as beneficial to them either,
which is why ESG is also on the chopping block,
and a lot of these companies. All right, let's get
to this list of companies that are backing down from

(01:33:20):
their DEI O. This actually, this is an interesting stat
Mentions of DEI and diversity, equity and Inclusion in earnings
calls have dropped roughly eighty two percent since Q two
of twenty twenty one that I think, perhaps more than
anything else, tells us that this isn't just about oh
my gosh, Trump's gonna take us out if we don't

(01:33:41):
abandon DEI. No, it's like, oh wow, okay, Trump won. Publicly,
I'm gonna say oh boo hoo, But privately I'm going
to wipe my brow and let's let's hope that the
economy gets better and business gets better and I don't
have to bow to the woke DEI officer that the
knocks on my door every day. I'm pretending like I'm

(01:34:03):
a CEO anyway, So let's get in Who who abandoned DEI?
It's a longer article than I thought Amazon and a
Decemblar memo to employees. Amazon said it was winding down
outdated programs and materials related to its efforts around DEI
Boeing praise God for that one. I guess, just too

(01:34:24):
many incidences, too many DEI hires, too many challenges with
everything from building the planes, to keeping the planes in
the air, to landing the planes. Just a debacle of
a company. Brown foreman, the Jack Daniels maker, sent an
internal note announcing an end to several diversity, equity and

(01:34:44):
inclusion programs in response to a shifting legal and external landscape.
I would argue that the external landscape aspect of it
really does come down to somebody coming in there and saying, okay,
Trump one, why in the world is a company like
Jack Daniels embracing DEI have you ever, I'm not gonna

(01:35:05):
make a joke. Caterpillar again falls into the category of
really they really seriously. Now, to be clear, a lot
of this we can actually point to a gentleman by
the name of Robbie Starbuck. If you're not familiar with him,
he's very big on acts. If you're not familiar with him,
get familiar. Robbie Starbuck is a superstar. He's one of

(01:35:27):
those true grassroots fighters that's really making an impact and
forcing companies to rethink their whole wokeness thing. Ford We've
heard about that, Harley Davidson. That's another one that just
blew me away. And I'm pretty sure that Robbie Starbuck
was involved in that one. I know he was involved
in John Deere who pulled back in response to feedback

(01:35:48):
feedback coming from Robbie Starbuck. Deer said it will no
longer participate in or support external social or cultural awareness parades, festivals,
or events, and would not would not include socially motivated
messages in training materials, and will ensure it's not using
diversity quotas in hiring and they should be illegal, to

(01:36:09):
be clear, let's just put that out there. Lows Low's
told employees it would revise its resource groups, stop participating
in human rights campaign surveys, and stop sponsoring or participating
in festivals and parades. If there's one bad thing about
all this, A lot of these companies they're not quite reversing.

(01:36:30):
They're just pulling back their their involvement. In other words,
it's not like, okay, well, you know we we sponsored
sponsored what is that cross Stresser Story Hour? I forget
what is it? Trans story? I don't what is it
called Drag Queen Drag Queen Story Hour. We we funded

(01:36:51):
Drag Queen Story Hour last year. This year we're gonna
we're gonna go fund a pro life March for Life. No,
they're not, they're not completely reverse. They're just pulling back
on their wokeness. Mulsen Core's another odd one. McDonald's, that's
one surprised me. You know, you always think McDonald's, Oh,
they're so big, there's there's they're so nasty and the

(01:37:11):
food is nasty. I don't know about the people. The
people will probably find, but the food's just gross. But
that's another another issue, and that has nothing to do
with DEI. They were gross before they were woke anyway.
Uh yeah, McDonald's. That's good. Good there. Meta that was
another shocker. But you know, it is a shocker unless
you had taken to consideration that Mark Zuckerberg is the

(01:37:32):
is the most weaslely snakesh guy. I mean, he's he
can act if you can somehow merge a weasel and
a snake, and that's Mark Zuckerberg. So yeah, so that
that shouldn't really be surprising at all. Nissan, Stanley, Black
and Decker odd one tractors supply very out and that's

(01:37:52):
the one, if I recall, that's the one that actually
started the whole Robbie Starbuck quest. I think he noticed
that this company, which you know, they're so obviously farmers
people that generally speaking aren't really into the drag queens story.
Hours well, they were embracing all this wokeness and now
they're not Toyota, Walmart pulled back. That's good. Now, who

(01:38:16):
didn't pull back? American Airlines, Southwest Airlines, and United Airlines
fly the diverse skies. If you dare Apple, I mean,
you know, I know, probably vast majority of you have
some sort of Apple devices. I don't, so I don't care.

(01:38:39):
I don't get into Apple really at all. I like
Apple podcasts though, So there you go. Costco, that's no
one that odd when they doubled down. According to this,
Costco also maintains its commitment and their shareholders to reject
National Center for Public Policy researches anti DEI proposals. The

(01:39:00):
wholesaler also pushed back on some of the conservative group's claims,
calling them misleading at best. Whatever Delta another another weird one,
why wow whatever, whatever, whatever fun stuff. So now you know,
we got a short list of boycott and conversely, it's

(01:39:20):
not just about boycotting. It's also about rewarding those who
are coming around doing Okay, look, we started posting on Facebook.
I know, it's crazy, crazy. I mean, there was a
time when we were posting on Facebook every day and
then it just got sick of the sick of the warning,
sick of the bands, the thirty Day bands, whatever, and

(01:39:41):
so we just stopped. And when I say we am
talking about everybody that I was involved with. Yeah, the
Liberty Dailies has a very strong it's called POLITI stick,
very strong facebook page that I think we didn't post
them there for like fourteen months or something like that.
We're back, though, baby, we are back posting those mad
memes uh n oq report facebook page. I started sort

(01:40:05):
of posting. Their point is is that, hey, you know,
if these companies are gonna come to their senses, then
let's let's reward them. Now. I'm not I'm not gonna
drink bud Light and I don't drink beer. I don't
drink anything really other than coffee. I do drink coffee
all the time. But but yeah, I wouldn't go run

(01:40:27):
out and get bud Light. But you know what's conspicuously
missing here? Target? What's happening with Target? That would be
a good question anyway. DEI is on the ropes, but
it's not dead yet, contrary to what a lot of
people are saying, for it to officially die and be
gone and not just be relabeled or switched to something else.

(01:40:49):
Oh I heard a word today.

Speaker 6 (01:40:50):
What was it?

Speaker 1 (01:40:53):
Oh, goodness, I'll have to remember it's it's basically a
word that's sort of replacing DEI, replacing even diver the
equity and inclusion. I think it started with the beak,
because I remember thinking, well, could you call it deeb?
You call it debbie, just rearranged it a little bit,
I bed maybe you know, maybe maybe apple. Apple's probably

(01:41:15):
already got an ibed coming. So who knows, I forgot
what not brotherhood, that'd be definitely unwoke, really brotherhood anyway. Yeah,
the only way that DEI ESG and all the wokenesses
is really truly going to be eliminated is if well,
it'll probably take an act of God. Five reasons why

(01:41:41):
Corporate America is abandoning DEI Now, I will admit. When
I was doing my show notes this morning, I was
thinking to myself, okay, ah, here's two perfect stories. Well
do this one will be like a shot chaser. Here's
the here's the shot. I'll show you what's happening. All
these companies are leaving, leaving the the whole DEI realm,
kicking it out, getting rid of their their their DEI

(01:42:02):
managers or whatever, and then we'll follow it up with
why it's happening. And then I blew it. I totally
forgot about this next story. I didn't look ahead. Apologies.
I need to give me a give me a new producer.
So this story comes to us from the Federalist dot Com.
Five reasons why Corporate America is abandoning DEI by Casey

(01:42:24):
Chalk will skip through the minutia and get straight to
the list. Number one. DEI doesn't diminish tensions between groups.
It intensifies them. Uh you know, I'm sure there are
some out there. Maybe I don't know. Could be twenty percent,
could be thirty percent, could be fifty percent. I don't know,
but there's probably some out there, Uh, CEOs and presidents

(01:42:48):
and whatever people that are leading these companies who thought, hmm,
this is actually a good idea. We just make our
company more inclusive and that will make everybody happier. It'll
it'll diminish tensions between the gros. It'll be like, hey,
you know, we're gonna we're gonna give you a DEI training.
You know, all the white people go to this DEI training,

(01:43:08):
all the black people go to this rally, all the
Hispanic people go here, and if you're Asian, you know,
you can kind of pick and choose which one you
want to go to. Anyway, somebody thought that was a
good idea, but I would say most people, most people
who have the intelligence level to make it to the

(01:43:30):
position of CEO or president or vice president or whatever,
they realize that, huh, this kind of sounds like it's
going to drive more tension, but it'll be forced tension.
In other words, like the tension's going to come from
one side, but we will force that side to not
express their tension. We'll make it not only will we

(01:43:51):
tell them that we're going to discriminate against them, we'll
make it to where if they complain about us discriminating
against them, we'll call them bigots. And that's sort of
what happened in a lot of companies, and it was
it did drive more division, it intensified the tensions between
the groups. Number two, it's a long article. Number two.

(01:44:12):
DEI is a costly self looking ice cream cone. I'm
gonna have to read a little bit further on that
because my commentary on that statement probably isn't what you
want to hear. Another DEI lecture for my work openly
admits that effectively implementing DEI will be costly. Companies and
organizations must create and maintain their own DEI budgets with

(01:44:34):
separate DEI staff to create DEI programs, run seminars, host
guest lectures, advise leadership, and monitor progress and the implementation
of DEI initiatives. These technocrafts will council management on adding
DEI to professional promotion criteria to ensure everyone's cooperation. Now,

(01:44:55):
on a quick side note, hopefully that made sense the
whole self looking ice cream cone. On a quick side note,
I've heard, and you know, I've never never my companies
have never had a DEI manager or program or anything.
So I don't have this from firsthand experience, but I

(01:45:15):
have heard from people who say that DEI managers and
anybody who's trained and gotten their degree in diversity or
whatever it is, that these are the most insufferable human
beings alive. That's I mean, it seems to be a
relatively universal perspective that CEOs and presidents and vice presidents

(01:45:40):
when they see the look at their calendar and they
see they've got a meeting with the DEI manager, they
find a reason to have somebody else take the meeting,
or maybe they get sick, or they pull a fire alarm,
you know, if they're if they're former Congressman Bowman, something

(01:46:02):
like that. Yeah, they weren't. They're not the happiest of
people to be around. Number three, DEI fosters its own
culture antithetical to American culture. Self explanatory, but it is
thought provoking. I want you to think about that. DEI
fosters its own culture, antithetical to American culture. We are

(01:46:23):
supposed to be a melting pot. The United States of
America is supposed to be diverse, naturally diverse, diversified because
so many people around the world wanted to come in
and participate in the American experiment. They wanted to get
their piece of the American dream. They wanted to advance

(01:46:46):
American exceptionalism, they wanted to be Americans and to do
this over time, it took a long time. Okay, I
would say we sort of reached peak harmony, if you will, shortly,
you know, right around the end of the Cold War,
all the way up until around the time when Barack
Obama was elected president. Between those times, okay, late eighties,

(01:47:11):
maybe early nineties all the way through until Barack Obama
came in and ruined it all. I would say that racism, sexism,
that they were on a sharp declines, gay bashing or
any like. We were just becoming a more tolerant nation,
and it was it was a natural process. I would

(01:47:33):
say that gen X was basically organically tolerant over time.
You know, not everybody, Obviously. I'm not suggesting by any
means that if you lived in nineteen ninety nine and
you didn't know what racism was, I'm saying that it
was diminished. And it wasn't until cultural Marxism sprouted from

(01:47:54):
Barack Obama and his regime, laying the groundwork, planting the seeds,
so to speak, for what we've seen under Joe Biden
and his puppet masters. Before that, we were on the
right track, and Barack Obama pushed us in the opposite direction.
And then wokeness started taking over, and then Trump arrangement

(01:48:15):
syndrome added to that, and then the left started going
too far and too far, and too far and even further,
and then, yeah, it really has I wouldn't say destroyed
American culture, but it's definitely hampered quite a bit and
we need to rebuild that asa P Number four. DEI
is demonstrably illogical and incoherent. If I have to explain

(01:48:39):
that one to you, then you just don't get it
and you should just go go ask your DEI manager,
unless you are a DEI manager, in which case try
to set an appointment with your CEO. Number five. DEI
doesn't champion people. It infantilizes them. Infantilizes them. It's a
weird word. I'll have to look it up. Whatever I mean, well,

(01:49:00):
let's figure out what it means. Finally, far and I'm kidding,
by the way, finally far from celebrating and empowered. You know,
I do get this thing. I get the occasional email
correspondence from people when I make these jokes, these self
deprecating jokes. People will be like, hey, you know, uh uh,

(01:49:22):
maybe maybe you should you should focus on your own
education or get a job there, because you're kind of dumb,
who knows maybe the right, maybe the right. They're not Finally,
far from celebrating and empowering people. DEI actually engenders narcissism

(01:49:44):
and delays their moral development. This is obvious and the
way it encourages people to be victims who should condescendingly
lecture the unenlightened about their own faults and inadequacies. For example,
my employer's DEI training consistently declared that everyone needed to
patiently listen to young people entering the workforce, show them

(01:50:04):
a special deference because of their creativity, and provide lots
of positive reinforcement because young people have difficulty receiving criticism.
DEI foster's a society that coddles younger generations, and I
would argue that DEI embraces weakness. It says that it's
very nineteen eighty fourish. The weaker you are, the stronger

(01:50:27):
you are, and if you're too strong, you're actually weak.
It never made any sense, but anyway, let's yeah, you
get the IDEA. Good good list there, good stuff. Hopefully,
like I said in the last segment, hopefully this is it.
Hopefully DEI is on its way out. Wokeness is on

(01:50:50):
its way out. Both of them are being transformed. To
be clear, they're being rebranded, relabeled as IS esg AS
is pretty much all these woke causes, woke ideologies, I
should say, woke philosophies. They're being rebranded, but they are
on the ropes, and so it is time for us
to to continue to fight. And we fight by educating,

(01:51:13):
We fight by not being hateful. If we can just demonstrate,
just say hey, you know, without the you know. I
don't know if you noticed it, Bob, but ever since
the company kicked DEI out out of it, there's been
a lot, a lot more calmness, a lot fewer people
yelling at each other. We're able to retain employees for longer.

(01:51:34):
People are excited to come to work. And that is
and it's not just oh, it's oh, because the white
people are going to be happier. No, it's not the case.
Even I would argue that the vast majority, not vast majority,
a majority of I guess persons of color, a majority

(01:51:55):
of them would actually just like things to be equal
from an opportunity perspectively, true equality, not equity equality, just
like you know what, I'm vying for a promotion, Bob
is vying for a promotion. May the best man or
woman win.

Speaker 8 (01:52:14):
That's it.

Speaker 1 (01:52:14):
That's what we would want. This whole idea that you're
going to because it hurts both sides when you start
to embrace this concept of giving more benefits to those
who marginalize those who have different intersectional boxes checked off.
When you say this person gets preferential treatment, and if

(01:52:36):
this straight white male is more qualified, they're gonna have
to be a lot more qualified to get a job,
and even then they're probably not because we're gonna push
them down. That that makes the quote unquote privileged class
very much upset, but it also throws doubt into the

(01:52:58):
underprivileged classes. And it's not even classes that the labeled,
the people that are labeled as Oh, sure, you're a black, gay,
trans woman, therefore you know you're president of this company.
If it were me, and maybe I'm different, but if

(01:53:18):
it were me, I'd be like, I don't want a
promotion based upon the color of my skin. I don't
want a promotion based upon my sexual orientation. I want
a promotion because I'm better than Bob. And then if
they look at me and say, hey, the problem is
you're not better than Bob. He's more qualified, he's smarter,
he's better looking, he's everything better than you. But he's

(01:53:42):
also a white, straight male. So we're making Bob. You know,
he's going to be the assistant manager and you're going
to be the vice president. It's like, I wouldn't want
that if I were whatever. But again, maybe I'm just different.
It does need to die, and as I said last time,

(01:54:02):
I'll probably take an act of God. But that doesn't
mean that we shouldn't stop or we should stop trying
to bring about its death ourselves. Here's a true story.
I was testing out some coffee. This has been almost
a year ago, testing out some coffee for a potential sponsor.

(01:54:23):
And I had made the coffee and I went about
my morning routine, did my work, doing my thing, and
then I took my first sip of coffee and it
struck me. I'm like, holy crap. I had forgotten that
I had was testing out this new coffee. I just
took the first sip and I was like, Wow, this
is really good. And then I remembered, oh my gosh,
this is Promised Grounds. This is the stuff that they

(01:54:44):
sent me. So I started drinking some more of it,
and I have become a lifetime customer of Promise Grounds.
They are a Christian Christian coffee company, which I know
you don't see a whole lot of them. They give
back to the community. They're Texas, all American all texts
and just like a lot of the stuff that we do.
Check them out. Go to jdrucker dot com slash coffee

(01:55:05):
jdrucker dot com slash coffee and check out promise grounds.
It's great.

Speaker 2 (01:55:12):
A large retail store just canceled a huge order, leaving
us with a ton of extra Mind pillows. But you
know what, that's their loss. I'm gonna make it your gain.
For the first time ever, you get standard classic Mind
pillows per wholesale prices only fourteen eighty eight. I can't
believe I'm even saying that, only fourteen eighty eight. But
it gets even better. For a limited time, I'm gonna

(01:55:34):
offer my entire classic collection at wholesale prices. Upgrade to
a Queen sizempillow for just eighteen eighty eight King size
only a dollar more, Get my body pills for twenty
nine eighty eight, and multi use my pillows for only
nine eighty eight.

Speaker 1 (01:55:50):
So go to MyPillow dot com.

Speaker 2 (01:55:52):
Or call the number on the screen use your promo
code to take advantage of wholesale pricing for the first
time ever on TV, including my standard size my pillow
only fourteen eighty eight. They've never been offered this low before.
We have limited quantities at this price, so limit's gonna
be ten. And once they're gone, they're gone.

Speaker 6 (01:56:14):
Yeah, because it comes from China, and you cannot have
Jijinping spying on us like a dog.

Speaker 1 (01:56:21):
We're gonna look into it China.

Speaker 2 (01:56:23):
On the subject of TikTok, my wife is actually Chinese.

Speaker 1 (01:56:28):
Show.

Speaker 2 (01:56:28):
Out of all the minorities, Asians are my favorite goby duel.
If in fact, TikTok does get banned, we still have
to unit as red states, blue states.

Speaker 1 (01:56:40):
These are the United States.

Speaker 13 (01:56:43):
Instead of arguing over TikTok, maybe we should be arguing
over banning the wealthy elites who are destroying this country.

Speaker 2 (01:56:52):
TikTok's a dangerous place.

Speaker 1 (01:56:54):
I mean, look what's happening in La with these fires.

Speaker 5 (01:56:56):
They're widespread misinformation campaign.

Speaker 16 (01:57:00):
Elon Musk talking with my hands TikTok.

Speaker 2 (01:57:02):
You gotta just love TikTok. But I love tatas even more.

Speaker 5 (01:57:10):
TikTok is a dangerous tool weaponized by communists China to
destroy American news.

Speaker 12 (01:57:17):
I'm going to Kanku just.

Speaker 6 (01:57:18):
Like great senators Prison and Trump and I are committed
to understanding what TikTok really does my Mi ma, my pepa,
and my wee wall agree.

Speaker 9 (01:57:26):
I'm less concerned with TikTok, and I'm more concerned with
the ramp in pornography, infiltrating our schools.

Speaker 6 (01:57:32):
These leftist ideologies gotta be banned. If you do make
a TikTok, wear a miss scatter or la he watch
a TikTok, shattera.

Speaker 2 (01:57:41):
Orl a.

Speaker 1 (01:57:45):
Funny stuff. That Ted Cruz pardon me, that Ted Cruise
impersonation was actually pretty pretty spot on good funny stuff.
So let's talk about not funny stuff. Let's talk about Willow.
Google's Willow, their their latest verse version of quantum computing,
was able to do some pretty amazing things last month.

(01:58:07):
And when I say pretty amazing, it should be pretty terrifying.
I'm going to get into it, but I want to
just preface this by saying, there is going to be
an allure to these things, whether it's artificial intelligence, quantum computing,
AI agents replacing apps, They're going to convince many of us,

(01:58:28):
many of you, to be honest, they're going to convince
many many people. The vast majority of people are going
to see AI, see quantum computing, see the possibilities, see
the applications. I mean, it's not just the possibilities. They're
going to get to see it as it's happening live,
and they're going to think to themselves, this is good.

(01:58:52):
The problem is, and the reason that they'll feel this
way is because in reality, many of the things that
will happen will be good. I mean, seriously, there's going
to be some amazing things that happened as a result
of quantum computing being applied in the real world. The
ability to solve extremely complex equations, equations that we can't

(01:59:14):
solve today. The ability to decipher and to speculate. Okay,
the ability to speculate is something that even your best
supercomputers today cannot do. Quantum computing will be able to do.
And when I say speculate, what I'm referring to is,
for example, starting to to discover and answer questions that

(01:59:37):
they don't know exists. The questions themselves. We don't know
they exist yet, and they're going to not only find
these questions, but find the answers. Now, how this will
apply in the real world will be in many ways
very very enticing. For example, they'll be able to to
discover new ways to do drugs that blow Big Farma

(01:59:59):
out of the water. Okay. In other words, they'll be
able to and just this is a very loose example,
but stay with me on this. They'll be able to
examine and notice, for example, that we'll say a particular
type of cancer. Okay, they'll look at this particular type
of cancer, and you know, we're trying to find ways
to treat the symptoms. We're trying to find ways to
kill the cancer cells. With quantum computing, it will be

(02:00:22):
able to not only and tied into artificial intelligence, they
will be able to look at cancer, explore the vast
amounts of data that we couldn't possibly imagine being able
to see and understand as a whole as humans. Quantum
computing will be able to see it as a whole,

(02:00:42):
and we'll be able to discover things that we didn't know.
I mean, they'll be able to say, hey, you know,
according based upon our the analysis, the quantum analysis of
this particular type of cancer, we have determined that the
actual root cause is this which nobody's looking at this thing,
whatever this thing is, and the solution, the way to

(02:01:04):
stop it has nothing to do with this treatment or
that treatment or that treatment as a matter of fact,
no radiation, no nothing. If you do and again i'm whatever,
you know, if you take the seed of this and
the milk of a muskrat, I don't know. I'm just
you get the idea. I mean, it'll come up with

(02:01:25):
things that in a trillion years, with the best scientists
in the world, we could never have even contemplated. It
will solve problems that we cannot possibly solve. And then
once you start getting into artificial intelligence and more specifically
artificial general intelligence and the eventuality of AGI driven by

(02:01:50):
quantum computers, now you're getting into I mean, this is
when I say godlike I'm not saying that with a
big G. I'm not talking about God Almighty. I'm saying
as in like Demigod, angelic, whatever you want to call it, demonic,
this is probably the better way to put it. And
it will be able to do things that will blow

(02:02:10):
everybody's mind. And for the most part, people will see
this as a huge positive until the negatives start creeping in.
And I've always said that the biggest negative, the one
that's going to get us, isn't necessarily going to be
a Skynet variation of the future where there's you know,
war guns, robots, terminators, anything like that. Nor will it

(02:02:32):
just be the economic hit that many people will take
the financial hit of losing their jobs, because AI is
going to replace the vast majority of jobs. Given enough time,
they're going to be able to demonstrate that artificial intelligence,
especially once you start getting into more agile robotics, will
be able to accomplish and do any job that we
can do better than we can do it. Period. I

(02:02:55):
already am. I'm dabbling myself into certain AIS. I participated
in a in a program of study. Whatever I was,
I took pretty much all the writing that I've ever
done ever, plugged it into an artificial intelligence. An AI
is really a chatbot, but it's more. It was more
than that, and turned it on and had it analyze

(02:03:16):
and basically to see if it could write like me.
And the results weren't very great. They were good, they
weren't great like it. It's still it missed a lot
of nuance. It went you'll find this crazy. It went
a little bit too conspiratorial for me. But still, but
it was good and they were close. They're they're getting
there given enough time and the feedback that I've given

(02:03:40):
another writers have given. It is definitely possible that even
creative elements will be able to be replaced. And it's
not a question of if, it is a question of when. So,
assuming that an AI robotic doctor or surgeon of the
future will be better than a human doctor surgeon in
the future, assuming that currently it can be, the argument

(02:04:05):
can be made that they are on the verge of
basically having AI attorneys that are superior because they have
the instantaneous access to the wealth of knowledge that no,
I mean, even an attorney with photographic memory wouldn't be
able to do like the kid that plays in that
one show suits. Okay, beyond that, beyond that, they'll be

(02:04:27):
able to do a lot of things. And that's that
leads us to what the real threat of all this is,
and that is complacency. That is not complacency really, it's
it's more giving up, you know, establishing that in our
own lives and our lives as human beings, we can
live better. What they'll position is better. Hey, you don't

(02:04:50):
have to do any of this stuff anymore. As a
matter of fact, you know, you can do pretty much
whatever you want. Will give you a universal based sk
income because anything that you could possibly do AI and
robotics and quantum computing and all that stuff can do better.
So you're human, you get to be elevated. Okay, you're
now a king. Basically, you can do nothing and we'll

(02:05:10):
take care of all of your needs. You will own nothing,
and you will be happy. Yes, I do picture artificial
intelligence and UBI and modern monetary theory if we're really
getting into those being the pathway through which the quote

(02:05:31):
unquote Fourth Industrial Revolution, the Great Reset whatever they're calling
I think they're giving it a new name. Now all
these things will be able to be realized as a
result of the rise of AGI and quantum computing driving it.
And that does concern me greatly for obvious reasons. But
that also tells me that we are that we are

(02:05:54):
very close to if we're not in the middle of
the biblical and times. So there's that. But let's get
into Willow Willow for those who don't know, that's Google's
state of the art quantum chip. To put in perspective,
their previous quantum chip had like fifty one cubits, which
is tremendous. This one has like one hundred and four
I believe, but it's not double the speed. Every additional cubit,

(02:06:19):
Every single additional cubit doubles the speed of the previous
So if you have fifty fifty one, when you get
to fifty two, the chip with fifty two cubits is
twice as fast as the chip with fifty one. So
now we're on to one hundred and whatever. Let's get
into this. This is from and I hate pulling from
the source in this particular case because the source happens

(02:06:41):
to be Google, and you think they're biased when they're
not talking about themselves. They're definitely biased here. But this
is important. I want you all to understand this as
much as possible, and again we're pulling from their biased perspective.
Meet Willow, our state of the art quantum chip. Today,
I'm delighted to announced Willow or and this was from
a December December ninth of last year. Today, I'm delighted

(02:07:05):
to announce Willow, our latest quantum chip. Willow has state
of the art performance across a number of metrics, enabling
two major achievements. The first is that Willow can reduce
error exponentially as we scale up using more cubits This
cracks a key challenge in quantum error correction that the
field has pursued for almost thirty years. And I'll explain
that here in a second second. The Willow Performance Willow

(02:07:28):
Performance performed a standard benchmark computation SBC in under five minutes. Now,
this standard benchmark computation would have taken one of today's
fastest supercomputers ten septillion years. And if you're not familiar
with Septilian, that's a ten followed by twenty five zeros

(02:07:53):
ten septillion years for the fastest supercomputer in the world
to do what Willow was able to accomplish in five minutes.
Glenn Beck had covered this and he tried, He tried
his best. Yeah, I love Glenn Beck, Okay, but sometimes
this stuff is a little over his head. Okay when

(02:08:14):
it comes to politics, when it comes to culture, when
it comes to his understanding of the conspiratorial nature of
those around us, he's top notch. When it comes to
ten septillion years, he kept saying, I want to know
what the question was? Is adorable? Love Glenn Beck. The

(02:08:34):
Willow chip is a major step on a journey that
began ten years ago. When I don't care, let's get
to the important part. So they said there was two
important things that happened. The error correction component. That is
a big one. Okay, we would already have quantum computers
today if it wasn't for three things. Number One, you
need they require vast amounts of power to properly operate,

(02:09:00):
as does a g I. To be clear, that's why
you see all these these tech companies now talking on, hey,
maybe we can build a nuclear reactor. Why do you
need that? Oh, trust me, we do. Number Two, you
need the cooling ability. You need to be able to
keep this down. This being the these uh, these chips

(02:09:20):
and these computers down at temperatures that are unfathomable to most.
We're talking about nearly absolute zero zero or right at
absolute zero, colder than space basically, and that is that
is a challenge. And the reason for those two things
is because of the third aspect of it, which is
the error component. With a cubit you have, you're dealing

(02:09:43):
with two very hard to comprehend aspects of quantum physics.
Number One, you deal with superposition, and I think the
the everybody's familiar with with Schrodinger's cat that is the
that is the the I guess the layman's layman's version
of understanding superposition. Then there's quantum entanglement. And the easiest

(02:10:07):
way to understand that is that you have basically two
two elements, two two components, could be two atoms, to electrons, whatever,
to people, and regardless of distance, one affects what happens
to one affects the other instantaneously, doesn't matter. It could
be it could be one thousand light years away. With

(02:10:29):
quantum entanglement, the responses are instant because they are entangled quantumly.
In other words, there is no no like direct physical
connection between them that would require you know, space and
time in order for a response to to be realized,
in order for it to travel, there is no travel time,

(02:10:49):
there is no traveling period. It is a quantum entanglement,
and we don't understand it now. I have theories, and
I don't think we're gonna get to those today, because
that's I don't want to bore you to death yet.
We'll bore you later. But here's the thing is that
those that aspect of it makes it to where when

(02:11:12):
you have a cubit, which your standard standard bits right
in computing you've got ones or zero's. With a cubit,
a cubit can be one or zero, or one and
a zero or neither one or a zero all at
the same time. And that's the part where the easiest
way to put is when you with a bit, you
flip a coin and lands on heads or tails. With

(02:11:33):
a cubit, you flip a coin and it lands and
it starts spinning and at any moment could be heads
or tails or neither or both. Makes sense. Bottom line
is is that this does enable computations to happen exponentially
faster than with your standard computers, even a supercomputer. That's
why it's able to do so much. But the challenge

(02:11:55):
with error correction. Errors occur with in quantum computers based
upon the craziest things. Okay, one degree temperature variation could
cause massive errors, sounds, lights, vibrations. There's a rumor, I
don't know if this is true, but there's a rumor

(02:12:16):
that they had a cataclysmic error, cascading errors in a
quantum computer because of a truck hitting a pothole outside
that was enough to disrupt a quantum chip to the
point of basically full, full blown nothing but errors. Okay,

(02:12:39):
well they're working on they've established a way they believe
to start reducing the errors, and they're doing this by
adding more cubits. Okay, anyway, so let me make this
bigger so you can see what what I'm reading. Errors
are one of the greatest challenges in quantum computing, since cubits,
the unit of computation in quantum computers, have a tendency
to rapidly change information with their environment, making it difficult

(02:13:02):
to protect the information needed to complete a computation. Typically,
the more cubits you use, the more errors will cause.
The system becomes classical. But today in Nature we published
results showing that the more cubits we use in Willow,
the more we reduce the errors. And it sound sounds counterintuitive,
but basically it's kind of like taking a sand castle

(02:13:24):
and the more sands you add to it, the bigger
you make the sand castle, the more stable that the
sand castle is. It doesn't quite compute in our brains,
but they're saying that it worked, and the more quantum
the system becomes. We tested ever larger arrays of physical cubits,
scaling up from the grid of three by three in
code of cubits to a grid of five by five

(02:13:46):
to a grid of seven x seven in each time.
Using our latest advances in quantum error correction, we were
able to cut the air rate in half. In other words,
we achieved an exponential reduction in the air rate. This
historic accomplishment is known as in the field as below threshold.
Being able to drive errors down while scaling up the
number of cubits. You must demonstrate below being below threshold

(02:14:10):
to show real progress on error correction, and this has
been an outstanding challenge since quantum error correction was introduced
by Peter Shore in nineteen ninety five. There are other
scientific firsts involved in this results. YadA, YadA, YadA, get
to the So now let's get into computations, and this
is where we get into the more the scarier part.
Tense up twenty years on one of today's fastest supercomputers.

(02:14:30):
As a measure of Willi's performance, we used random circuit
sampling benchmark, pioneered by our team and now widely used
as a standard in the field. URCS is the classical
hardest benchmark that can be done on a quantum computer today.
You can think of this as an entry point for
quantum computing. It checks whether a quantum computer is doing
something that couldn't be done on a classical computer. Any

(02:14:52):
team building a quantum computer would check first if it
can be classical computers on rcs, otherwise there's a strong
reason for skeptists that it can tackle more complex quantum tasks.
We're consistently used. We've consistently used this benchmark to assess
progress from one generation of chip to the next. We
reported Sycamore results in October twenty nineteen and again recently

(02:15:15):
in October twenty twenty four. Willow, which is the successor
Willi's performance on this benchmark is astonishing. It performed a
computation in an under five minutes that would have taken
that will take one of today's fastest supercomputers ten septillion years.
This mind boggling number exceeds time known time scales in
physics and vastly exceeds the age of the universe. It

(02:15:36):
lends credence to the notion that quantum computation occurs in
many parallel universes, in line with the ideas that we
live in a multiverse, a prediction first made by David Deutsch.
These latest I was gonna keep going in glaze over
that just for fun. But let's talk about that real quick,
and I'm going to actually take the screen down for

(02:15:57):
this their contention. And there's a rising number of quantum
physicists as well as quantum computer scientists who are starting
to believe that the reason that quantum computers that cubits
are able to do calculations so quickly is because they're
tapping into the multiverse. In other words, they're saying this

(02:16:19):
cubit exists in the multiverse, which is they say, is
infinite or nearly infinite. So as a result, you're able
to get computational power from multiple universes. That is their contention. Now,
the other prevailing theory, the theory that preceded this one,
that's that others are still latching onto and still holding

(02:16:39):
true to, is that it's not a multiverse, but there
is a parallel universe. Now, this aligns with a theory
that I've been working.

Speaker 5 (02:16:46):
On with some.

Speaker 1 (02:16:48):
People, and that theory is that the reason that cubits
are so powerful is because they do sort of work
in a parallel universe. It's not really a parallel universe,
though it is a separate dimension and I would argue
that the separate dimension would be across the veil. If
you were to read through Ezekield, look at Ezekiel's visions,

(02:17:08):
if you were to start to understand and tie in
what they're learning in quantum physics with what we already
know from the Bible, you'll see that there are parallels.
But it's not a parallel universe. It's not a multiverse.
That would be a lateral move. We're talking about a
vertical move to a higher dimension, in other words, with
a cubit. You know, in just as on Earth, so

(02:17:32):
too in Heaven. I just butchered the verse. But you
know you know what I'm talking about if you've read
your Bible. These cubits, these quantum computers are tapping into
the you can call it the heavenly variation. Some would
say it was more along the lines of the demonic variation,
the breach, the reaching across the veil into the supernatural.

(02:17:57):
That is to me far more plausible reason or explanation
about the insane computational powers of cubits, of quantum computers.
To put in perspective, think of it like this. You know,
when you're looking at trying to understand how these computers work.

(02:18:20):
You've got, you know, let's say, for example, a password okay,
and you can try to use what's called a brute
force attack to try it to solve the figure out
what the password is. You just keep try this password, nope,
this password, nope, this password nope. Do that over and
over again. And the supercomputers can do that over time.
They say, oh, you know, depending on the difficulty level

(02:18:42):
of the password, it could take this long. It could
take this long, it could take this long because they're
doing it one at a time with a quantum computer.
The idea there, and this is why they keep going
into this whole multiverse theory, and this is why I
keep going into the whole higher dimensional theory, is that
instead of try fail, try fail, try fail, a quantum

(02:19:03):
computer would address the password problem by just trying all
possible passwords at once. Makes sense, sort of. It doesn't
work in our linear world, but in the quantum world
it makes perfect sense. And now we get into the
real problem, the real risk. And this is what I'm

(02:19:25):
going to be talking about a lot more, hopefully over
the weekend but more likely next week, is where you
know you call it, call it zero hour. You've got
organizations such as the NSA for example, such as DARPA.
You have groups and organizations not just in the United

(02:19:47):
States but elsewhere who are under the assumption, and rightly so,
that quantum computers will be able to destroy all encryption.
There will be nocryption. And we're not just talking about
current encryption. We're talking about encryption ever. In other words,
take it, you know. Then this is where the calculations

(02:20:08):
here come into play. Right now, the way that we
do encryption, it would take, you know, a supercomputer a
very long time to break the encryption. A quantum computer
can break the encryption instantaneously, almost we'll say, in a
matter of depending upon the degree of difficulty of the encryption,

(02:20:29):
probably a matter of seconds possibly, and the best encryption
out there it might take it minutes. But it can
crack anything, It can gain control of anything, and whoever
controls the quantum computer that is attempting to do this
well essentially control everything digital in the world. You might say, well,

(02:20:51):
that doesn't make any sense. Why would they continue to
do it?

Speaker 4 (02:20:54):
Well?

Speaker 1 (02:20:54):
Number one, the answer to that question is that we
as humans, we will continue to do something because we can.
It's not a question of doesn't make sense and it's dangerous.
It's a question of, hey, let's just do it because
we can look what they're doing, insern hey we might
well we're doing might blow up the world, but we
got to see if we can do it anyway, so
just keep going. Same thing with quantum computers, well, a

(02:21:18):
much higher, much higher likelihood of destruction. The early estimates
had put me. When I say earlier, I'm talking about
just a few years ago. Those estimates had put put
us at basically sometime between twenty thirty and twenty forty
as being when you know we would reach that day zero,

(02:21:41):
we'll call it, reach that point to where somebody nefarious
has control of quantum computing, to the point that they
are able to to break any encryption and start to
break any encryption, they destroy the monetary system, crash crash planes,
take down hospitals, anything, I mean, just to anything that

(02:22:02):
is digital they would have access to, and they would
be able to tod with the click of a button,
make big, make small, make gone. They would again be
able to do pretty much anything. And that's that is
a concern. They were initially saying twenty thirty to twenty forty.
Now they're thinking that it's going to happen before, sometimes

(02:22:22):
before twenty thirty. The NSA is trying to prepare for that,
but they don't have enough time. They aren't going to
be able to encrypt everything that they need encrypted. Announce
the question of what can they encrypt enough well enough
to prevent a quantum computer from being able to break
into it, and unfortunately, the best solution that they have

(02:22:47):
wait for it. The best solution that they have is
to develop their own quantum computer that can then control
the encryption. Might not sound logical to let a quantum
computer be used to defend against quantum computing, but then again,

(02:23:07):
there may not be another option. The other option, I
guess you could say, would be the go analog. The
other option would be to air gap the world, make
it to where all this connection that we've been working
so hard to accomplish over the last last two and
a half decades that is culminated now and like Starlink
and stuff like that, well we got to cut all

(02:23:29):
that off because anything that's connected to the Internet is
now vulnerable to quantum computing. I know this is all
sorts of If you haven't been paying attention to any
of this stuff, and I don't blame you. If you haven't,
then this all might sound like, Wow, this is crazy,
except it's happening. It's happening right now. I mean, they

(02:23:49):
are working towards they being Everybody who's in the know
is working to either try to figure out how to
build quantum computers or what to do after they're live.
And the question isn't at this point whether or not

(02:24:10):
we can you know, they're not trying. The NSA is
not sitting there trying to figure out how do we
stop quantum computers from being able to do what they're
going to be able to do at this point, they're
at there saying how do we survive once quantum computers
start doing what they're able to do? Now again, once
you tie this into artificial intelligence, particularly artificial general intelligence,

(02:24:36):
which Sam Altman over at open AI declares that this
is the year we're here. It's twenty twenty five. They
will have working AGI at open AI. That's who they
built chat GBT. They believe that they know what is
going to take and they're going to be able to
achieve it. They've been able to get a pretty huge

(02:25:00):
chunk of funding behind them, and I don't see any
reason they have no reason to lie about it. Yeah,
people like Elon Musk pushing in the same basic direction.
Rock is not just when we look at what is X?
Why did he buy X? Was it so that he
could win the election? I think that's part of it.
Is it so that he could could control the narrative,

(02:25:21):
expose the bad guys, bring down legacy media? Yes, yes, yes,
and yes. But at the end of the day, he
really only had two primary like the overarching goals which
we have, he's barely discussed. Number one is to advance
artificial intelligence in a way that is not only controllable
but adoptable. In other words, have AI. He feels that

(02:25:41):
AGI is going to happen soon as well, and he
wants to be the person who controls it. Maybe for
good reason. Maybe he's like, hey, I got to defend
the world against the bad guys that are going to
use AI. Not going to go into motives, I'm just
saying that that is one of the goals. Utizing rock
for adoption, utilizing into to collect By the way, you know,
why why would he put grock out there for users

(02:26:04):
to use? Because it does take a tremendous amount of energy.
It takes a it's a a a net loser, you know,
financially speaking, but in the long run, it's a net
winner because he's able to when every time we use Rock,
Grock gets better, Grock gets stronger, Grock gets smarter, and
he gets closer to being able to have enough data

(02:26:27):
to help him to create a GI. Okay, so that's
number one. Number two is, of course, his vision of X.
I'm not talking about X the social platform. I'm talking
X as in this thing that he has in his
head where X would be basically the AI agent for
that rules them all. Okay, one you don't need. There's
gonna be hundreds of thousands, millions, tens of millions of

(02:26:49):
AI agents that will basically be replacing apps on our
smartphones here in the very near future. He thinks, why
not replace all of those with one? Just one. All
you need is X. And again, not the social platform, X,
the AI, the AGI agent that he you know, plans
to bring about. Again, he's barely talked about this stuff,

(02:27:09):
but the vision is clear, that the direction is is
crystal clear. If you're paying attention again, if you're paying attention,
and the reason that I've been talking about this so
much and will continue to talk about it so much,
is because unfortunately, in conservative and alternative media, very few
people are paying any attention. I get it. We're so folks.
Oh yay, Trump's gonna deport everybody. Awesome. You know, we're
so focused on Oh my gosh, China's bad. Democrats are bad.

(02:27:31):
Uniparty swamp is bad. We get so tied into the
day to day you know, Oh you know what is?
What did Christy know Him say in her confirmation hearing?
I get it. I'm intered in that stuff too. I
want to talk. I've got a video from her confirmation
hearing ready to go, but I'm not going to bring
it up yet until probably the next segment, because this

(02:27:53):
is a topic that everybody has to understand, even if
only to realize that we our path forward to in
this is not to try to stop any of it.
Our path forward is to get ourselves and our families
and our communities as prepared as possible. This is why

(02:28:16):
it's not just about stop eating ultra processed foods. It's
about being able to produce your own food. It's about
working with people working within your community. I'm a big
fan of making sure that you know, just in case
things do go south at some point in the future,
that you have enough connections, enough of a network around you,
physically around you, you'll be able to feed your family,

(02:28:38):
get your medications, get whatever you need. And you know,
I mean, in my ideal vision of how we make
it through this, I picture like a Galt's gulch everywhere,
little mini Galt's gulches everywhere. But not just for the
intellectually superior, as they as an Atlas Shrugged. I'm talking
about for just communities, just everybody. Hey, we got we

(02:29:00):
got our little ecosystem here. We can interact with the
rest of the world, the rest of America, you know.
But if it ever comes a time when we can't
interact with the rest of America, the rest of the world,
if the infrastructure goes down and things go south, then
we have our own self contained area, realm, whatever. And
that could be just your home or your homestead or whatever,

(02:29:22):
or it could be a community or whatever. But we
have these little I call them freedom zones, the best
way to put it, these places that we'll be able
to not become beholden to the powers that be if
and when things start really going south. Now, I know
this is all crazy talk. I know that there's a

(02:29:45):
good chance that many, if not most, of you have
already tuned me out. But I'm not gonna stop talking
about it. I'll stop talking about it tonight. We'll move
on to normy issues here in a second. But I'm
not going to stop talking about on the show in general,
because there's a lot talk about, there's a lot to
prepare for, there's lots to do, and unfortunately, the vast

(02:30:08):
majority of my peers in conservative or alternative media aren't
paying enough attention. Let's take a short break. When we
get back, we'll talk about We'll talk about some politics.
Let's talk about Christy.

Speaker 16 (02:30:22):
Know.

Speaker 1 (02:30:22):
That'll be fun and easy. Christy know him. Here's a
true story. I was testing out some coffee. This has
been almost a year ago, testing out some coffee for
a potential sponsor. And I had made the coffee and
I went about my morning routine, did my work, doing
my thing, and then I took my first sip of coffee,

(02:30:45):
and it struck me. I'm like, holy crap. I had
forgotten that I had was testing out this new coffee.
I just took the first sip and I was like, Wow,
this is really good. And then I remembered, oh my gosh,
this is Promised Grounds. This is the stuff that they
sent me. So I started drinking some more of it,
and I have been come a life, lifetime customer of
Promise Grounds. They are a Christian Christian coffee company, which

(02:31:08):
I know you don't see a whole lot of them.
They give back to the community. They're Texas, all American,
all Texan, just like a lot of the stuff that
we do. Check them out. Go to J. D Rutger
dot com slash coffee jd Rucker dot com slash Coffee
and check out Promise Grounds there. It's great. I will

(02:31:29):
admit I am not I have not been the biggest
fan of Christian Home. I actually scratched my head. That
was one of my most one of the most confused
I'd been by any of President Trump's cabinet picks when
he picked her to run Department of Homeland Security. But
after watching some of the the uh her confirmation hearing,

(02:31:49):
I realized, I guess I can sort of understand where
he's coming from and where she does fit in, and
I think she'll do fine. It really does come down
to not just not just qualifications, but also ideology, and
I think that she might, at least in this case
as it pertains to keeping keeping the nation safe, which
is what the Department of Homeland Security is supposed to do.
Not let's forget about the last four years. This Department

(02:32:12):
of Homeland Security that's coming in starting Monday, this one
is supposed to keep the American people safe from harm
foreign end domestic. So can she do it? I think so.
I think that her head is at least in the
right place.

Speaker 10 (02:32:31):
My goal and my mission is to build trust. We
will undertake a large job and a large duty that
we have to fulfill that the American people expect us
to do by securing our border, to make sure that
our nation is a nation with borders or we're no
nation at all, and that we are making sure that
those criminal actors that are perpetuating violence in our communities

(02:32:53):
and in our cities and towns and states are removed
from this country. That there's consequences for breaking the law
in our country. Again, there has to be consequences, because
when Americans break the law, there's consequences. And why would
we ever allow someone to come in from another country
and not allow them and not have consequences or allow
them to continue to go forward and to commit rape

(02:33:16):
and murders and other break other laws that endanger our society.
So we've had over thirteen thousand murderers that are loose
in this country that have come over that border. We've
had almost sixteen thousand rapists and sexual assault perpetuators that
are loose in this country. Right now, four hundred and
twenty five thousand plus people have criminal convictions that are

(02:33:39):
here illegally in this country that our current administration is
doing nothing to round them up and get them out
of our country. We will be doing that immediately, and
that will be the priority. And that is one of
the reasons that today the American people have lost their trust.
President Trump will build it back and know that their
federal government is accountable to them and is working to
put America first again.

Speaker 1 (02:34:01):
Good talk, good talk, But it's all of this so far.
I am more confident that she'll be able to do
the job. I hope that she does. I hope that
she can. I hope that she is not only good
at talking about this stuff, but that she can actually
get it done, and if she can, then I mean, unfortunately,
the bar has been set so low. I mean, she
could do nothing and it would be better than what

(02:34:23):
has been done so far. I mean, my gosh, it's
been bad. But hey, you know, this is what we're
dealing with, so we will deal with it as best
we can. I'm hopeful that she will be able to
accomplish those things. The one thing that I am so

(02:34:43):
very happy with jd Vance. I don't know if you
guys remember, but I believe I'm almost certain that early
on in the campaign that Christine Know Him was the
VP pick, was President Trump's first choice. This is before
the whole shooting of the dog incident in her book
that that pretty much took her out a consideration. For

(02:35:05):
the reason that I think this is because, if you recall,
pardon me, she held a rally in her state that
President Trump attended, and this was a rally to where
she officially comes out and endorses him. Right. Well, the
the uh big sign, huge sign in the background it

(02:35:27):
said Trump know Him twenty twenty four. Now there's she
wasn't running in twenty twenty four, So what was that
all about? I think they were they were it was
a test balloon. You know, see what people were thinking,
you know, kind of hint out there, hey, thinking about
making Christy know him the VP choice, what do y'all think?
And of course I jumped out there and said, no,

(02:35:49):
don't do it, thankfully. Uh. And then she put out
her book and talked about shooting dogs and then that
was over for her. But but uh, but yeah, hopefully
she'll be fine at the Department of Homeland Security. We
did have some good news some more good news. On Friday,

(02:36:11):
CNN lost their lawsuit. They are going to pay an
undisclosed amount of money. We know they'll pay at least
five million dollars, but as far as the punitive damages,
we don't know because they did a plea bargain. Some
were talking at one point about, hey, it should be
about one hundred and fifty million dollars to the former

(02:36:33):
for the Navy veteran Zachary Young, who is who went
into Afghanistan tried got people out, and then CNN went
after him for it because he charged money for it.
Because you know, they expect everybody to just do everything,
risk their lives right for free, because they're stupid. Story
over Gateway pun and jury find CNN committed defamation against

(02:36:55):
Navy Vet Zachary Young. Cnno's young five million dollars in
emotional and financial damages plus whatever he gets or whatever
he was able to negotiate or as attorneys were able
to negotiate for a punitive damages juriors. Jurors began deliberating
after closing arguments were made on Thursday in a defamation
lawsuit against CNN. The deliberation continued into Friday after the

(02:37:17):
jury remained undecided late Thursday evening. Now they find seeing
unliable for defaming US Navy veteran who helped Afghanistan help
with the Afghanistan evacuation the d they owe four million
for financial damages and a million dollars in emotional damages,
and they went after him hard. Okay, I don't know

(02:37:37):
if you guys were watching, but you had everybody, including
Jake Tapper out there, you know, basically saying, this guy's
scamming Afghan the Afghan people, charging them, you know, a
lot of money, money that most of them can't get
a hold of. And he was He replied with, hey,
look a lot of these people are getting sponsors. They're

(02:37:58):
getting sponsored you know, it's not like it's free to
risk our lives to get these people out of Afghanistan
just because Joe Biden botched the withdrawal. It's not cheap,
it's not risk free. Yes, we need to get paid
for it. That's what he did. That was his job,
and CNN did not like that one bit. They went
after him with everything they had. They defamed him, and

(02:38:20):
the jury found that as a result that they were
they owe him money. Maybe you'vet Zachary Young sued CNN
for defamation over a twenty twenty one report on his
work helping Afghans during Biden's botch withdrawal. The lawsuit against
CNN stem from their coverage of Biden's botched Afghanistan withdraw
which the court previously determined showcased actual malice, express malice,

(02:38:43):
and a level of conduct outrageous enough for plaintive Zachary
Young to seek damages. Young, who was offering to transport
Afghans out of the country to flee the Taliban in
twenty twenty one, was accused by Tapper and CNN correspondent
Alex Mark Hart of running a black market scheme and
exploiting desperate Afghans for personal gain while disregarding the dangers

(02:39:07):
and circumstances surrounding the evacuation efforts. Tapper even maliciously and
sarcastically highlighted Young's use of the word unfortunately in a
message to the network about the extremely limited availability of
evacuations and high demand, as if to imply that Young
was benefiting from the situation. Young argued that the network
intentionally painted him in a bad light and harmed his

(02:39:28):
security consulting company. The court wrote in its previous ruling
that youngered CNN messages and emails that showed internal concern
about the completeness and veracity of the reporting. The story
is a mess incomplete, not fleshed out for digital. The
stories eighty percent emotional, twenty percent obscured fact and full
of holes like Swiss Chief. This is internal CNN texts.

(02:39:51):
Young also profited a message exchange he had with Marquartte
just hours before publication, where he advised there were factual
inaccuracies in the report CNN published anyway. The judge is
also a reported acknowledgement. Reportedly acknowledged that, according to internal communications,
the news crews had little regard for Young, and disparaged
him with profane language in private discussions. They did not

(02:40:14):
like him one bit. They went after him hard. They
went after him hard on air, on their website, and
it was all unfounded. Everything they were saying. They were
saying he was running a black market scheme for personal
personal benefit. He was helping to evacuate desperate Afghan people
who were stuck in the clutches of the Taliban as

(02:40:35):
a result of Joe Biden's botched botch withdrawal. They were
trying to change the subject on behalf of Joe Biden.
They didn't really care about about about young. They cared about,
Oh my gosh, we gotta Joe Biden's looking bad. We
got to defend him. He's our he's the big guy.

(02:40:56):
So let's let's change the subject. Let's get everybody going
after this avy vet risking his life to save people.
That's that's who we need to villainize. CNN. You know,
they they lost the narrative long ago, They lost their
audience long ago. Now it seems as if they're losing

(02:41:19):
losing their sanity. But they're not the only ones. As
in legacy media. You got CBS is an article from
twitchy zero credibility. CBS asks why wildfire conspiracy theories are
going viral, and x users answer them. You know, I'm
one of the ones that puts out these these conspiracy
theories about the LA fires. I do think that, you know,

(02:41:42):
there's there's actually multiple theories out there, and I find
all of them possibly plausible. I say possibly possibly plausible
because I don't have quite enough information to be able
to make a determination as to what this is all about.
I just know it's something. It's definitely not nothing. Let's
just put it that way. There definitely is something to it.

(02:42:02):
I don't know if it's if it's gorilla warfare against
the United States, possible. I've heard rumors that it's just
a bunch of crazy homeless people and the illegal aliens
and just regular citizens who are mischievous or demonic or
whatever deciding hey, there's fires, let's make more fires part

(02:42:22):
of some perverse Los Angeles human nature. I don't know
that's a possibility. I would say that's a pretty plausible one.
Then there are the theories that, hey, you know what,
they needed to get rid of some of the evidence
because they knew that Trump was coming in and they
knew that Cash Betel was coming in. They're gonna see
the Diddy tapes and they're gonna be like, oh my gosh,

(02:42:43):
we gotta go raid this guy. Well, let's just get
rid of this guy's house, this guy, that guy and
that girl and whoever, let's get rid of the evidence
of child sex trafficking in the Pacific Palisades. That theory,
to be clear, is, uh, it's possible. I'm not ready
to buy into it just yet. Maybe if if we

(02:43:07):
see maybe when now now, if and when cash Hotel
gets confirmed, and if he if and when Cash Hotel
starts releasing some names of those people that were involved
in the in the infamous Diddy tapes. People that that
are that are being uh being whatever blackmailed currently uh
pressured and bullied into backing Kamala Harris, and now maybe

(02:43:28):
some of them are trying to leave the country. I
don't know. But yeah, if if we start seeing that
some of the homes in the Pacific Palisades match up
with some of the names on the list, then I'll
be more more likely to embrace that. But let's get
to this article from Amy Curtis over at Twitchy. Imagine
if we lived in a country where media presented facts

(02:43:50):
and truth regardless of which party, political party, or cause
uh such actions hard or benefited. It would be a
refreshing change of pace. Undoubtedly, they there would be there
would still be conspiracy theories and theorists, and sometimes they'd
be right. I'm always right. But these days, today's conspiracy
theories are tomorrow's reality. And it's because media are no

(02:44:12):
longer objective reporters of reality but propagandas for the laft.
So it's hilarious when CBS News acts surprised that conspiracy
theories are going viral again, and they asked the question,
while fire.

Speaker 8 (02:44:24):
Conspiracy theories are going viral again, why why would Why
wouldn't they just trust the narrative that we're saying out there.
We're saying it's climate change. We're saying that that you
know that there was co two that lit fires.

Speaker 1 (02:44:42):
In their article, they write, while investigators work to find
out what caused multiple wildfires in the Los Angeles area,
some conspiracies about the fire's origins have spread on social
media platforms. Posts about baseless theories ranging from celebrity involvement
to secret government weapons, have racked up the millions of views.
I forgot that part the you know, space lasers directed

(02:45:04):
interview weapons. Yep, that's possible. If you look at that
that blue Volkswagen van that didn't get a scratch on it,
despite the entire area around it getting burnt down. I'm
not saying. I'm just just saying, despite in fact checking efforts,

(02:45:27):
researchers say, conspiracies of this kind regularly emerge after wildfires.
I think, and there is a quote from Abby Richards,
a misinformation researcher, which makes her an idiot. I think
that the more emotionally overwhelming it is, the more likely
we are to see high volumes of conspiracy theories to
cope and made people feel like they have control. So

(02:45:49):
let's just stop right there before you go any further. No,
Abby Richards, it has nothing to do with our desire
to cope. If we were coping and we would say,
you know what, this is just probably down power lines,
probably just fireworks. There's nothing here, you know, Santa Ana
winds are blown out one hundred miles per hour, the

(02:46:10):
air and the land and everything was so super dry.
This is probably just you know, natural causes that would
be coping. What we're doing here looking for reasons. Why
fires keep popping up, reasons why arsonists keep getting arrested,
is because we're wondering what the real story is, and

(02:46:33):
we can't rely on on legacy media to give us
the real story because all you're going to do is
lie and tell us that we're coping. They just don't
get it. They don't understand. It's like, we don't understand.
We told you guys that the vaccines were one hundred
percent effective and safe. I don't understand why you guys
didn't don't believe us. We told you guys that hundred

(02:46:55):
Biden's laptop was rushing disinformation. Why don't you listen? Why
didn't Why don't you believe us? We we've acknowledged that
we were wrong about that. Why aren't you coming back
and just getting all of your information from us? We're
the arbiters of truth. Abby Richards is the name of

(02:47:17):
this misinformation researcher and absolute moron. I mean that's like,
we hear some disinformation stuff, a lot of misinformation stuff,
but this this Abby Richard, she's just I mean legitimately
like unintelligent, like like straight up full blown stupid, like
like somebody needs to get her helmet if she thinks

(02:47:38):
that that we're just just trying to cope instead of yeah,
listening to legacy media tell us that it's it's the
co two. That's sort of the fires. Back to the article,
no one trusts fact checkers because they just paired the
Democrat party line and that's it. Exactly what did Molly
Hemingway say? She said, probably because all you do with

(02:48:00):
your immense power is spread Democrat propaganda and lies, leaving
people without enough credible news resources in the corporate media space.
Makes sense, makes sense. Let's see what did rock Prints
eight one to eight say. The latest leftist media ployee
seems to be branding any and all criticism as misinformation

(02:48:22):
while promoting irrational fears of climate change. The good news
is that the twenty twenty four election proved most people
stopped listening, and I would argue that we aren't done
there yet. We need to get more and more people.
I try to tell people to stop listening to any
of it, including Fox News. I know Fox News is
better than CNN or whoever, but not by much. You

(02:48:42):
really should be listening to to conservative and alternative media.
You need to look at the people who are out there.
I mean, watch Jill Rogan. Okay, listen to Tucker Carlson,
Alex Jones, j d Rucker, listen to us. Because I
might be wrong sometimes, but I'm I'm not going to
be wrong because I'm trying to point you in the

(02:49:02):
wrong direction. I'm not going to be wrong because I'm
trying to highlight a a you know, a partisan talking point.
I mean, just earlier today, if you guys weren't watching
the show, you know what, an hour and a half ago,
I was talking about how I completely disagree with President
Trump if he really is going to try to to
save TikTok, I disagree. Unless he's able to save TikTok

(02:49:25):
by getting them to sell their the American wing of
their company to somebody in America and to take all
the servers out of China and to take all of
the algorithms away from China, and to get rid of
all the back end tools they've got in there. Unless
he's willing to do that, that I disagree with with
trying to stop the ban on TikTok. I'm not going

(02:49:48):
to play a partisan game on this one. I'm just
gonna tell you how I feel I feel that TikTok
is bad. It needs to be banned. And I don't
care if Donald Trump or JD. Vance or Elon Musk
or anybody else says that it shouldn't be banned. Sorry,
they've learned nothing from the twenty twenty four election either.

(02:50:11):
Tony Kennett says, you're bad at this, this is why,
and they have a list of Should we go through
the list? No, no, no, we'll it's a long show already,
it's a long list. You get the idea.

Speaker 2 (02:50:28):
What a world?

Speaker 1 (02:50:29):
What a world? We as a nation, we are starting
to come around to understanding that lacy media is bad,
that independent media truthful, independent media, not all of it.
And I want to say, oh, if it's independent media,
it's good. It's not the case. I know a lot

(02:50:50):
of people in conservative and alternative media, independent media so
to speak, that are part of the problem. They're pushing
lies just as much as CBS or HE and are
the New York Times. So not all independent media is
created equal. But I would encourage you, I would beg you.
Dare I say to latch onto the people, the personalities,

(02:51:13):
the shows, the outlets, that we'll focus on the truth
no matter what that truth says, even if it goes
against your favorite politician, or your favorite sports team, or
your favorite talking head. You know, I like Tucker Carlson
a lot. When he's wrong, he's wrong, and I'll say it.
Same thing with Alex Jones, same thing with any of
these people. I fully wholeheartedly support Donald Trump, but when

(02:51:36):
he's wrong, I'll say he's wrong. And I fully oppose
Joe Biden, but when he's right, I will say he's right.
Problem is that he's never been right about anything ever
in his life, so I've never had to go down
that road. Not yet. There's still time. Maybe maybe he'll
do something right sometime in his life, and if he does,

(02:51:57):
I'll be there to say, Joe Biden did that right.
This is what we need. We need people to address
everybody else in a way that is direct, that is honest,
and that is factual. And if we don't know the answer,
then we need to find the answer. That's my pitch.

(02:52:19):
By the way, if you couldn't tell for listening to
and watching The jd Rucker Show more often, we're putting
a lot of effort into expanding the show. Were going
to be doing two shows a day We're going to
try to do it five or six, seven days a week.
You know, we really are, because that's that's how much
information is out there that needs to be disseminated to

(02:52:42):
the masses. I'm going to go and do my show
that I put out on Frank Speech by the way,
I'm going to be doing that show at nine am
Pacific at least Monday through Friday. And that show will
be exactly fifty six minutes long or fifty eight minutes long,
I think, and that show will will be pre recorded.

(02:53:03):
And then I'm going to try to do this live show,
this live version of my show, every day at least
five days a week, but preferably seven at six pm Pacific.
Put it on Rumble, put it on Ax, put it
on bit shoot, get her YouTube, even put it on
various places til they kick me off for the fourth time.

(02:53:23):
Put it on the various places where where people can
get the news, because we need truth. That's the only thing.
Truth and of course God Almighty are the only things
that can get us through the times ahead. Is Donald
Trump going to do a great job? I fully expect
him to. Can he do it all alone? Not at all?

(02:53:45):
He needs help. He needs your help. We all need
each other's help. That's why we'll be doing the show.
Lord Willing, I'll be back tomorrow with another episode. But
in the meantime, y'all stay strong, stay safe, and God
bless y
