1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000 I've seen a lot of this actually online 2 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,240 with people going, I didn't ask for this. 3 00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:05,679 I voted for him, but I didn't vote 4 00:00:05,679 --> 00:00:08,480 for this. Big people too. Yeah. Big people. 5 00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:10,240 And and and once you get past the 6 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:11,839 you you actually did kind of vote for 7 00:00:11,839 --> 00:00:12,820 it, then it's 8 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:14,349 then it's well 9 00:00:14,894 --> 00:00:16,894 well, now what are you gonna do? Mhmm. 10 00:00:16,894 --> 00:00:18,335 Are you now you have a you have 11 00:00:18,335 --> 00:00:20,195 a decision to make. Are you gonna rationalize 12 00:00:20,254 --> 00:00:22,015 his behavior and say, well, you know, it 13 00:00:22,015 --> 00:00:23,855 would have been much worse if Kamala was 14 00:00:23,855 --> 00:00:25,295 there? Because you could do that. You could 15 00:00:25,295 --> 00:00:27,375 try that, and and you could probably convince 16 00:00:27,375 --> 00:00:29,295 yourself for a little while. Or you're gonna 17 00:00:29,295 --> 00:00:30,035 get honest. 18 00:00:50,265 --> 00:00:52,104 Welcome to another episode of What the Hell 19 00:00:52,104 --> 00:00:54,585 is Happening with my cohost or joining me 20 00:00:54,585 --> 00:00:56,505 monthly, however you look at it, Charlie Robinson. 21 00:00:56,505 --> 00:00:58,664 Here to discuss the madness of the news 22 00:00:58,664 --> 00:01:00,204 cycle and the, you know, partisan 23 00:01:00,659 --> 00:01:02,500 chaos that we're seeing every week every month, 24 00:01:02,500 --> 00:01:03,939 really, because seeing this we've been doing it 25 00:01:03,939 --> 00:01:04,840 pretty much monthly. 26 00:01:05,140 --> 00:01:07,140 It's just continually chaotic, and we like to 27 00:01:07,140 --> 00:01:08,659 continue to connect and go over some of 28 00:01:08,659 --> 00:01:10,340 these points and how it's developed, and it's 29 00:01:10,340 --> 00:01:12,819 always entertaining conversation. So, Charlie, welcome back. How 30 00:01:12,819 --> 00:01:13,719 are you, my friend? 31 00:01:14,685 --> 00:01:15,744 I'm I'm good. 32 00:01:16,045 --> 00:01:18,444 It's funny because when we make notes on 33 00:01:18,444 --> 00:01:20,525 what we're gonna talk about, it's it's written 34 00:01:20,525 --> 00:01:23,165 in proverbial pencil, you know, because it it's 35 00:01:23,165 --> 00:01:24,924 subject to change. There you don't know what's 36 00:01:24,924 --> 00:01:26,924 gonna happen in the next forty eight hours 37 00:01:26,924 --> 00:01:28,685 that's gonna throw a big monkey wrench and 38 00:01:28,685 --> 00:01:30,530 everything or be the next distraction 39 00:01:31,069 --> 00:01:33,710 to get you talking about something else instead 40 00:01:33,710 --> 00:01:36,210 of leering centers. Now you're talking about, 41 00:01:37,469 --> 00:01:38,930 Venezuela or you're 42 00:01:39,390 --> 00:01:41,010 maybe you're now you're back in 43 00:01:41,310 --> 00:01:43,710 Minnesota. Minnesota has been on the map quite 44 00:01:43,710 --> 00:01:44,290 a bit. 45 00:01:46,084 --> 00:01:46,905 Feels very 46 00:01:47,605 --> 00:01:49,525 what are the chances of that? Yeah. You 47 00:01:49,525 --> 00:01:51,204 know, it's it's funny you say that. Like, 48 00:01:51,204 --> 00:01:52,564 you know, because if you look at the 49 00:01:52,564 --> 00:01:53,224 at the story, 50 00:01:53,844 --> 00:01:55,924 it's I don't really even see a way 51 00:01:55,924 --> 00:01:57,605 that that would make sense that it you 52 00:01:57,605 --> 00:01:59,284 know, like, why that would even connect. But 53 00:01:59,284 --> 00:02:00,564 I made the same point last night. I 54 00:02:00,564 --> 00:02:02,390 said, isn't it strange that whenever there's a 55 00:02:02,390 --> 00:02:02,890 focal 56 00:02:03,349 --> 00:02:04,630 point, whatever it is, and Elon Musk is 57 00:02:04,709 --> 00:02:06,469 you know, they're they're all the usual suspects 58 00:02:06,469 --> 00:02:08,310 are screaming about the one thing. The next 59 00:02:08,310 --> 00:02:10,229 thing that happens, even if it's not connected 60 00:02:10,229 --> 00:02:11,750 to the story, is in the same location. 61 00:02:11,750 --> 00:02:13,509 Like, it's been it's happening over and over 62 00:02:13,509 --> 00:02:15,144 and over. Haiti and then Haiti and then 63 00:02:15,305 --> 00:02:16,745 you know, it's very weird to me. And 64 00:02:16,745 --> 00:02:18,185 so but my thought was how is it 65 00:02:18,344 --> 00:02:19,944 how would this even play into that? You 66 00:02:19,944 --> 00:02:21,625 know? Let's let's let's just start with that 67 00:02:21,625 --> 00:02:22,364 since the 68 00:02:23,224 --> 00:02:24,364 the the shooting itself 69 00:02:24,905 --> 00:02:27,144 is obviously an important story of US citizen, 70 00:02:27,144 --> 00:02:29,129 which is just batshit crazy. I mean, the 71 00:02:29,129 --> 00:02:30,409 way that people are regarding it, it's it's 72 00:02:30,409 --> 00:02:32,090 crazy. We can get into the the nuance 73 00:02:32,090 --> 00:02:33,930 of that. But the overlap you're may pointing 74 00:02:33,930 --> 00:02:35,650 is we have the Minnesota, you know, 75 00:02:36,169 --> 00:02:38,650 Somalia conversation. We have the more than that 76 00:02:38,650 --> 00:02:40,754 even. There's other political points from that and 77 00:02:40,754 --> 00:02:42,034 how it all just kinda seems to swell 78 00:02:42,034 --> 00:02:43,074 around that. Do you have a thought on 79 00:02:43,074 --> 00:02:45,074 what the importance of Minnesota may be or 80 00:02:45,074 --> 00:02:46,995 what the if there is a reason behind 81 00:02:46,995 --> 00:02:48,275 that bigger picture, what it may be? Do 82 00:02:48,275 --> 00:02:49,794 you have any thoughts? Well, it's a fully 83 00:02:49,794 --> 00:02:52,675 controlled city. I think that's pretty obvious that 84 00:02:52,675 --> 00:02:53,495 that that 85 00:02:53,949 --> 00:02:56,430 the mechanisms of government there are under the 86 00:02:56,430 --> 00:02:56,930 control, 87 00:02:57,629 --> 00:02:59,810 of an of something of supranational. 88 00:03:00,189 --> 00:03:02,349 It's something above it. Right? Something it it 89 00:03:02,349 --> 00:03:05,150 feels feels feels very comfortable to run their 90 00:03:05,150 --> 00:03:05,650 operations 91 00:03:05,949 --> 00:03:08,094 through that city. Like, that there's not going 92 00:03:08,094 --> 00:03:08,675 to be, 93 00:03:09,455 --> 00:03:11,235 a ton you know, that they'll have 94 00:03:12,495 --> 00:03:14,655 some form of control over the narrative. At 95 00:03:14,655 --> 00:03:16,175 least that's what they believe. It's been an 96 00:03:16,175 --> 00:03:18,014 interest it's interesting that it keeps coming back 97 00:03:18,014 --> 00:03:18,675 to this. 98 00:03:19,629 --> 00:03:20,830 Would you flush that part out there for 99 00:03:20,830 --> 00:03:21,870 me? What do you mean? Because I'm interested 100 00:03:21,870 --> 00:03:22,990 by that. Do you mean, like, some kind 101 00:03:22,990 --> 00:03:24,129 of a like a UN 102 00:03:24,509 --> 00:03:26,509 dynamic? Or when you say, you know, a 103 00:03:26,509 --> 00:03:28,430 multinational or term use, what do you mean 104 00:03:28,430 --> 00:03:30,990 by that? There's certain places that are just 105 00:03:30,990 --> 00:03:31,889 spook central. 106 00:03:32,254 --> 00:03:34,574 Okay. You know, just cities that are Sandy 107 00:03:34,574 --> 00:03:36,814 Hook as a prime example. There's just places 108 00:03:36,814 --> 00:03:38,655 where you go. There's just a lot of 109 00:03:38,655 --> 00:03:40,574 government. I mean, I get it outside of 110 00:03:40,574 --> 00:03:43,294 the Beltway in in in, you know, Virginia 111 00:03:43,294 --> 00:03:44,735 and places like that. That's where you would 112 00:03:44,735 --> 00:03:47,540 expect it. But there's certain there's other places. 113 00:03:47,540 --> 00:03:49,060 I was talking to someone about this, about 114 00:03:49,060 --> 00:03:49,960 a city in 115 00:03:50,580 --> 00:03:51,080 Europe. 116 00:03:51,460 --> 00:03:52,439 They're like, everybody 117 00:03:52,740 --> 00:03:53,240 that's 118 00:03:53,620 --> 00:03:55,879 in the city that lives there, it's like 119 00:03:56,099 --> 00:03:59,139 it's like off season for carnival workers. Right? 120 00:03:59,139 --> 00:04:01,175 But this is off season for people in 121 00:04:01,175 --> 00:04:01,675 intelligence. 122 00:04:02,055 --> 00:04:05,335 Interesting. The whole city. So I when I 123 00:04:05,335 --> 00:04:07,355 just keep seeing this over and over again, 124 00:04:07,814 --> 00:04:09,495 you know, what are we what are we 125 00:04:09,495 --> 00:04:12,074 good at? We're good at pattern recognition. Minneapolis 126 00:04:12,294 --> 00:04:14,155 keeps coming up an unusually 127 00:04:15,129 --> 00:04:17,470 an unusual amount for statistical 128 00:04:18,250 --> 00:04:20,569 probability of the city being the focal point 129 00:04:20,569 --> 00:04:23,129 of, you know, George Floyd and BLM and 130 00:04:23,129 --> 00:04:24,670 all of this and and, 131 00:04:25,209 --> 00:04:26,110 and the Somali 132 00:04:26,810 --> 00:04:29,050 pirate narrative that came out, which is interesting 133 00:04:29,050 --> 00:04:30,495 because this has been, you know, I was 134 00:04:30,495 --> 00:04:32,574 there fifteen years ago, and they had a 135 00:04:32,574 --> 00:04:35,795 huge Somali problem in Rochester, which isn't Minneapolis. 136 00:04:36,254 --> 00:04:37,855 And I remember saying to the person I 137 00:04:37,855 --> 00:04:38,435 was with, 138 00:04:38,895 --> 00:04:41,295 what is going on here? Is there some 139 00:04:41,295 --> 00:04:43,134 sort of, like, program or theme? It's like, 140 00:04:43,134 --> 00:04:44,735 yeah. There's just a lot of Samoels here. 141 00:04:44,735 --> 00:04:46,420 I was like, why? She's like, 142 00:04:46,879 --> 00:04:49,120 well, there's some sort of arrangement. I was 143 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,279 like, this is weird. Like, you know? But 144 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,279 but that that was fifteen years ago. Yeah. 145 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,199 So this isn't a new problem. I I 146 00:04:55,199 --> 00:04:56,740 I know that it feels new 147 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:58,754 because the media is talking about it, and 148 00:04:58,754 --> 00:05:00,235 they're like, oh, it's like they woke up 149 00:05:00,235 --> 00:05:01,855 one day, and it was like an infestation. 150 00:05:01,995 --> 00:05:03,514 No. This has been happening for a long 151 00:05:03,514 --> 00:05:05,435 time. I think you can even trace it 152 00:05:05,435 --> 00:05:07,535 back to, like, '90 post '93, 153 00:05:08,314 --> 00:05:10,654 some sort of arrangement with the small government, 154 00:05:10,954 --> 00:05:13,680 with Clinton, and something like that. So so, 155 00:05:13,759 --> 00:05:14,660 you know, there there's 156 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,360 it's not a new it's not a new, 157 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,479 development. If you live there, you knew about 158 00:05:20,479 --> 00:05:22,319 this for a long, long time. I think 159 00:05:22,319 --> 00:05:23,939 what is new is that the 160 00:05:24,319 --> 00:05:24,819 common 161 00:05:25,759 --> 00:05:28,855 news consumer out there is now talking about 162 00:05:28,855 --> 00:05:30,295 it in a way that they hadn't been. 163 00:05:30,295 --> 00:05:32,055 Of course, obviously, social media is having a 164 00:05:32,055 --> 00:05:34,475 lot of fun with it. And but but, 165 00:05:35,735 --> 00:05:37,574 but you you all you also kinda got 166 00:05:37,574 --> 00:05:39,194 the feeling while it was happening, 167 00:05:39,654 --> 00:05:40,715 there's a lot of 168 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,000 manufactured attention on it. Mhmm. Almost, you know, 169 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,400 when when everybody's talking about something, you have 170 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:48,680 to feel you almost have to take a 171 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:49,980 step back and go, okay. 172 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,360 Or is everybody talking about this because it's 173 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,115 a real important deal that we have to 174 00:05:54,115 --> 00:05:56,454 talk about right in this moment? Or 175 00:05:57,794 --> 00:05:59,714 are we all being told to to look 176 00:05:59,714 --> 00:06:01,714 here because there's something else going on? Is 177 00:06:01,714 --> 00:06:03,794 it a distraction? My mind ought to always 178 00:06:03,794 --> 00:06:05,634 goes to this as a Yeah. For something 179 00:06:05,634 --> 00:06:08,259 else. It's a distraction from something that's being 180 00:06:08,259 --> 00:06:10,340 discussed or voted on or being rammed through 181 00:06:10,340 --> 00:06:12,040 or happening in Israel or whatever. 182 00:06:12,420 --> 00:06:12,920 So 183 00:06:13,939 --> 00:06:16,199 Ball's a bit hesitant to take the cheese 184 00:06:16,580 --> 00:06:19,400 when I see it just sitting there. Mhmm. 185 00:06:19,460 --> 00:06:20,980 Feels a bit like a trap. And when 186 00:06:20,980 --> 00:06:21,460 everybody's 187 00:06:22,020 --> 00:06:23,625 in in and the hallmark, 188 00:06:24,564 --> 00:06:26,824 of of a good trap is that 189 00:06:27,925 --> 00:06:30,105 you're rightly annoyed you're rightly angry. 190 00:06:30,485 --> 00:06:33,444 Mhmm. And interested. Yeah. And interested. And yeah. 191 00:06:33,444 --> 00:06:35,225 And you see this and you go, woah. 192 00:06:35,470 --> 00:06:36,430 This is a problem 193 00:06:36,910 --> 00:06:38,829 Mhmm. That these people are facing, and this 194 00:06:38,829 --> 00:06:40,669 is a real problem. And then you go, 195 00:06:40,669 --> 00:06:43,470 woah. If if this is happening there, who 196 00:06:43,550 --> 00:06:45,389 who's to say it's not happening where I 197 00:06:45,389 --> 00:06:47,550 live or, you know, everywhere? Everywhere. It's not 198 00:06:47,550 --> 00:06:49,230 limited to the Somali community. It could be 199 00:06:49,230 --> 00:06:51,675 the, I don't know, Dominican Republic community in 200 00:06:51,675 --> 00:06:54,714 some obscure state somewhere. So it it opens 201 00:06:54,714 --> 00:06:56,555 this can of worms. You start thinking, well, 202 00:06:56,555 --> 00:06:58,634 if this is happening there, it could be 203 00:06:58,634 --> 00:07:02,014 happening everywhere. Mhmm. So I'm just I'm always 204 00:07:02,074 --> 00:07:02,735 a bit, 205 00:07:03,500 --> 00:07:05,660 you know, I'm always a bit cautious to 206 00:07:05,660 --> 00:07:07,520 to to to to go 207 00:07:08,460 --> 00:07:11,020 run sprinting into them, find out what's going 208 00:07:11,020 --> 00:07:13,020 on with the narrative because it always feels 209 00:07:13,020 --> 00:07:14,960 a bit fishy. But, man, for some reason, 210 00:07:15,340 --> 00:07:15,840 Minneapolis, 211 00:07:16,664 --> 00:07:18,985 Jacob Frey, that guy is he's involved in 212 00:07:18,985 --> 00:07:19,485 everything. 213 00:07:20,345 --> 00:07:22,425 I've seen that guy too much. I shouldn't 214 00:07:22,425 --> 00:07:24,904 know who the mayor of Minneapolis is. Yeah. 215 00:07:24,904 --> 00:07:28,104 Right. Exactly. Shouldn't Statistically, like you're saying, it's 216 00:07:28,104 --> 00:07:30,504 it's unnatural. Even, you know, that would it 217 00:07:30,504 --> 00:07:32,460 would be so much you know, things can 218 00:07:32,460 --> 00:07:34,139 happen. There can be odd series of events, 219 00:07:34,139 --> 00:07:36,300 but for that extended period of time, like, 220 00:07:36,300 --> 00:07:37,900 just as mathematically is a good point to 221 00:07:37,900 --> 00:07:39,580 say that seems unlikely that we would see 222 00:07:39,580 --> 00:07:41,259 this continually in the news. But you mean 223 00:07:41,339 --> 00:07:42,720 I don't have a scientific 224 00:07:43,020 --> 00:07:44,620 explanation for it. I can't say, well, it's 225 00:07:44,620 --> 00:07:46,139 because of this, this, and this. I'm just 226 00:07:46,139 --> 00:07:48,645 going I'm just saying it looks weird to 227 00:07:48,645 --> 00:07:50,725 me. Mhmm. And and it could happen anywhere, 228 00:07:50,725 --> 00:07:52,404 and and and and I'm hoping that it 229 00:07:52,404 --> 00:07:54,645 doesn't continue to happen anywhere, of course. But 230 00:07:54,645 --> 00:07:55,145 but, 231 00:07:55,764 --> 00:07:56,904 again, it's like 232 00:07:57,925 --> 00:07:59,685 it it feels like our did we spin 233 00:07:59,685 --> 00:08:01,310 the wheel, like, the the the the the 234 00:08:01,310 --> 00:08:02,689 Somali pirates from 235 00:08:03,310 --> 00:08:03,810 Minneapolis. 236 00:08:04,430 --> 00:08:06,350 Right. Okay? Like, it just feels like it's 237 00:08:06,350 --> 00:08:06,850 so 238 00:08:07,230 --> 00:08:09,949 haphazard and random and and unusual that we're 239 00:08:09,949 --> 00:08:11,550 that we're doing this. But then again, you 240 00:08:11,550 --> 00:08:12,050 know, 241 00:08:12,925 --> 00:08:14,685 every year, they sort of grab you with 242 00:08:14,685 --> 00:08:16,845 the media headlines. This time last year, what 243 00:08:16,845 --> 00:08:18,625 were we talking about? We're talking about 244 00:08:19,004 --> 00:08:21,004 a Tesla exploding right in front of the 245 00:08:21,004 --> 00:08:22,605 Trump Tower. Right? And the The race of 246 00:08:22,605 --> 00:08:25,085 warfare. The visual significance of that and the 247 00:08:25,085 --> 00:08:28,209 the the the army PSIOP division and talking 248 00:08:28,209 --> 00:08:29,810 about Ghost in the Machine and all that 249 00:08:29,810 --> 00:08:31,970 good stuff. So so here we are a 250 00:08:31,970 --> 00:08:33,409 year later. I mean, they told us they 251 00:08:33,409 --> 00:08:34,690 were gonna do it. They told us they 252 00:08:34,690 --> 00:08:36,129 were gonna run ops on us, and they 253 00:08:36,129 --> 00:08:37,909 have. And so the question is, 254 00:08:38,534 --> 00:08:40,154 how much of this is legitimate 255 00:08:40,695 --> 00:08:43,014 outrage? I mean, I'd be outraged if I 256 00:08:43,014 --> 00:08:45,174 believe that my community, the tax dollars are 257 00:08:45,174 --> 00:08:48,054 being squandered on nonsensical day care centers that 258 00:08:48,054 --> 00:08:49,595 don't exist from people who 259 00:08:50,054 --> 00:08:52,394 hate me or, you know, are actively 260 00:08:52,855 --> 00:08:55,070 trying to get rid of white people from 261 00:08:55,070 --> 00:08:56,590 your area. It's like, yeah, I'd be pretty 262 00:08:56,590 --> 00:08:58,429 mad about that. But then it's like, alright. 263 00:08:58,429 --> 00:09:00,050 Well, how much where does that 264 00:09:01,470 --> 00:09:01,970 normal, 265 00:09:02,830 --> 00:09:04,050 logical, reasonable 266 00:09:04,590 --> 00:09:05,649 level of outrage 267 00:09:06,110 --> 00:09:06,610 get 268 00:09:06,934 --> 00:09:09,495 then weaponized into something else. Like, we gotta 269 00:09:09,495 --> 00:09:11,414 round them all up. We gotta do we 270 00:09:11,414 --> 00:09:13,254 we gotta we gotta I don't care if 271 00:09:13,254 --> 00:09:15,894 it if we're gonna do digital IDs. Just 272 00:09:15,894 --> 00:09:18,134 solve this problem. Exactly. You know? And you 273 00:09:18,134 --> 00:09:20,799 can see yourself walking into it. About using 274 00:09:20,799 --> 00:09:23,039 an an actual problem. And then whether this 275 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,559 let let's talk about that story because there's 276 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,159 a lot of different overlapping points to that 277 00:09:26,159 --> 00:09:28,320 that whole thing. But even if the story 278 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,360 is 100% accurate, it can still be weaponized 279 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,079 to drive you into something like you just 280 00:09:32,079 --> 00:09:33,985 said, and that's often the case. But what's 281 00:09:33,985 --> 00:09:36,144 interesting about all this is, you know, first, 282 00:09:36,144 --> 00:09:37,745 just on that day care story itself and 283 00:09:37,745 --> 00:09:39,504 all the it's same with, like, the Venezuela 284 00:09:39,504 --> 00:09:41,285 point we can get into, the unparalleled 285 00:09:41,825 --> 00:09:43,904 amount of blatant propaganda. And I mean, like, 286 00:09:43,904 --> 00:09:45,600 false AI. You know, it's it's and it's 287 00:09:45,759 --> 00:09:47,360 never been more clear. It's being called out 288 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,199 by Twitter. You know? But so on the 289 00:09:49,199 --> 00:09:51,440 Somali thing, what's interesting to me is you 290 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:52,879 can go back and show and I agree 291 00:09:52,879 --> 00:09:54,079 with you. I mean, this is a this 292 00:09:54,079 --> 00:09:56,399 is a long term, obvious case of fraud 293 00:09:56,399 --> 00:09:57,459 and government manipulation. 294 00:09:58,014 --> 00:09:59,615 And frankly, I think it's quite obvious that 295 00:09:59,615 --> 00:10:01,294 it's not unique to just this one location 296 00:10:01,294 --> 00:10:03,214 or Democrats. That's always important to point out. 297 00:10:03,214 --> 00:10:05,214 But in this case, what's interesting is in 298 00:10:05,214 --> 00:10:07,774 Biden's administration, there was, what, like, 75 people 299 00:10:07,774 --> 00:10:08,274 indicted? 300 00:10:08,654 --> 00:10:10,574 And yet in Trump's administration, I haven't seen 301 00:10:10,574 --> 00:10:11,990 any. And And so what's fascinating to me 302 00:10:11,990 --> 00:10:13,350 is and that's not to say one's good 303 00:10:13,350 --> 00:10:14,870 or one bad or you know my opinion. 304 00:10:14,870 --> 00:10:15,990 I think it's the government, and I think 305 00:10:15,990 --> 00:10:18,009 it's all it's a whole of government problem, 306 00:10:18,070 --> 00:10:19,830 but it's fascinating the way it's being discussed. 307 00:10:19,830 --> 00:10:21,269 And then you got this Nick Shirley part 308 00:10:21,269 --> 00:10:22,790 of it. Of course, he's in this little 309 00:10:22,790 --> 00:10:25,429 weird Israel circle of funding dynamic, and and 310 00:10:25,429 --> 00:10:27,105 he's, I mean, just bad at what he 311 00:10:27,105 --> 00:10:28,305 does, if you got my honest opinion. His 312 00:10:28,305 --> 00:10:30,144 gray sweet sweatshirt asking track it was it 313 00:10:30,144 --> 00:10:31,665 just it seems like they're picking people like 314 00:10:31,665 --> 00:10:33,425 that for a reason, but he comes up 315 00:10:33,425 --> 00:10:34,705 to the story and does these kind of 316 00:10:34,705 --> 00:10:36,785 gotcha moment things. And I'm not even sure 317 00:10:36,785 --> 00:10:38,384 whether what he was highlighting. And let me 318 00:10:38,384 --> 00:10:39,345 know what you know if there's more in 319 00:10:39,345 --> 00:10:40,945 this part of it around the daycares he 320 00:10:40,945 --> 00:10:43,250 was highlighting, whether that was even a legitimate 321 00:10:43,250 --> 00:10:45,329 additional part of the story. My my point 322 00:10:45,329 --> 00:10:47,169 was there's fraud, and you can prove that. 323 00:10:47,169 --> 00:10:48,769 There's been people put in jail for it, 324 00:10:48,769 --> 00:10:49,970 and it's gone all the way to this 325 00:10:49,970 --> 00:10:51,490 point. And I think it's been continued allowed 326 00:10:51,490 --> 00:10:53,409 for a lot of reasons. But what's interesting 327 00:10:53,409 --> 00:10:54,850 is do you think that they're like, the 328 00:10:54,850 --> 00:10:56,929 Nick Shirley dynamic of what he was highlighting 329 00:10:56,929 --> 00:10:58,665 of these daycares? Do you feel like that 330 00:10:58,665 --> 00:11:00,504 was an actual extension of this? Or then, 331 00:11:00,504 --> 00:11:01,485 like you were saying, 332 00:11:01,865 --> 00:11:03,865 using a real story and then turning it 333 00:11:03,865 --> 00:11:06,264 into a cartoonish version of it right now 334 00:11:06,264 --> 00:11:07,785 in the way he was highlighting it for 335 00:11:07,785 --> 00:11:10,024 the purposes of, I don't know, Somaliland conversation 336 00:11:10,024 --> 00:11:11,960 or any number of overlaps that come from 337 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:13,639 our country, immigration. You know? So what do 338 00:11:13,639 --> 00:11:15,259 you think about that little part of it? 339 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:16,779 Soon as I saw the PR, 340 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,100 campaign he was doing for Israel's, 341 00:11:19,639 --> 00:11:23,000 travel industry, I went, woah. Okay. Hang on 342 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,460 a second. That's not coincidental. 343 00:11:25,225 --> 00:11:26,985 You know? That that that feels like an 344 00:11:26,985 --> 00:11:27,884 op. Now 345 00:11:28,424 --> 00:11:30,424 now like a limited hangout, like, maybe get 346 00:11:30,424 --> 00:11:30,924 you 347 00:11:31,705 --> 00:11:34,184 focusing on the Somali fraud because it's easy 348 00:11:34,184 --> 00:11:35,544 and you can throw a bunch of people 349 00:11:35,544 --> 00:11:37,625 under the bus. Yeah. Yeah. But that gets 350 00:11:37,784 --> 00:11:39,465 and that gets the ball wrong. And by 351 00:11:39,465 --> 00:11:42,110 the way, fraud, this is not new. Mhmm. 352 00:11:42,110 --> 00:11:43,629 They had discovered this. This had been brought 353 00:11:43,629 --> 00:11:45,549 up in 2018. This is something they talked 354 00:11:45,549 --> 00:11:48,289 about. They've done nothing about. Before that. Yeah. 355 00:11:48,429 --> 00:11:50,429 And before that. Yeah. And and why don't 356 00:11:50,429 --> 00:11:52,514 we bring it up? We can we can 357 00:11:52,514 --> 00:11:54,034 dress it up like it's brand new. It's 358 00:11:54,034 --> 00:11:55,634 new fraud all over again. We know nothing's 359 00:11:55,634 --> 00:11:56,674 gonna be done about it. And if it 360 00:11:56,674 --> 00:11:58,274 does, who do we don't care. You know, 361 00:11:58,274 --> 00:12:00,454 it it'll tie up the gum up the 362 00:12:00,475 --> 00:12:02,834 the the media wheels. We'll get you get 363 00:12:02,834 --> 00:12:03,735 you worried about 364 00:12:04,115 --> 00:12:05,095 daycares and 365 00:12:05,450 --> 00:12:07,769 Somali daycares in Minneapolis, and you're not worried 366 00:12:07,769 --> 00:12:10,009 about what's going on in Palm Beach. You 367 00:12:10,009 --> 00:12:11,769 know, you're not you're not worried about, 368 00:12:12,649 --> 00:12:14,110 the other things that are happening 369 00:12:14,570 --> 00:12:16,570 that that are not on the news cycle 370 00:12:16,570 --> 00:12:18,169 because of this or not on the social 371 00:12:18,169 --> 00:12:20,304 media cycle. And and it's red meat, of 372 00:12:20,304 --> 00:12:21,585 course, you know, because you see it and 373 00:12:21,585 --> 00:12:23,605 you're rightly upset about it. It doesn't matter. 374 00:12:23,825 --> 00:12:25,345 And and and you wanna fix it, and 375 00:12:25,345 --> 00:12:26,785 you know it's fixable, and you know that 376 00:12:26,785 --> 00:12:27,985 there's a lot of people that need to 377 00:12:27,985 --> 00:12:29,985 be led away in handcuffs for a variety 378 00:12:29,985 --> 00:12:31,845 of things and that, you know, 379 00:12:33,990 --> 00:12:36,389 but I also then immediately kinda go to, 380 00:12:36,389 --> 00:12:37,529 alright. So 381 00:12:38,709 --> 00:12:40,649 if they if this is out there 382 00:12:40,950 --> 00:12:42,709 and it's and it's really it's the genie's 383 00:12:42,709 --> 00:12:43,830 out of the bottle. You see it. You 384 00:12:43,830 --> 00:12:46,070 can't unsee it. You know that there's rampant 385 00:12:46,070 --> 00:12:47,209 fraud going on. 386 00:12:47,794 --> 00:12:49,235 I suppose I don't know if this was 387 00:12:49,235 --> 00:12:50,454 their ultimate goal, 388 00:12:51,154 --> 00:12:52,934 but maybe the pivot is, 389 00:12:54,115 --> 00:12:54,615 fine. 390 00:12:55,794 --> 00:12:58,034 Let the people see the fraud. That's part 391 00:12:58,034 --> 00:12:58,774 of the demoralization 392 00:12:59,235 --> 00:13:01,074 campaign. You know, you're never gonna get it 393 00:13:01,074 --> 00:13:03,129 fixed. We're never gonna arrest those people. They're 394 00:13:03,129 --> 00:13:04,810 never gonna be mass arrest. We're never gonna 395 00:13:04,810 --> 00:13:06,970 leave these people out in handcuffs. So you 396 00:13:06,970 --> 00:13:08,810 talk about this all you want. All it's 397 00:13:08,810 --> 00:13:10,810 gonna do is make you realize when you're 398 00:13:10,810 --> 00:13:12,830 done, nothing's gonna happen. 399 00:13:13,450 --> 00:13:14,509 They'll still be 400 00:13:14,865 --> 00:13:17,184 running frauds on you. You'll still be mad 401 00:13:17,184 --> 00:13:19,745 about it, and nothing will be nobody will 402 00:13:19,745 --> 00:13:21,825 ever go to jail except maybe you for 403 00:13:21,825 --> 00:13:23,504 pointing it out or talking about it on 404 00:13:23,504 --> 00:13:24,485 social media 405 00:13:25,264 --> 00:13:27,105 or asking for an early life check on 406 00:13:27,105 --> 00:13:29,080 somebody who wrote an article about it. You 407 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,759 might get people knocking at your door to 408 00:13:30,759 --> 00:13:32,600 take you away, but none of the actual 409 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,080 perpetrators will go to prison. And that that 410 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:36,940 actually works just as well, 411 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:38,919 you know, is if they say, god, what 412 00:13:38,919 --> 00:13:40,519 what happens if they if the general public 413 00:13:40,519 --> 00:13:41,799 finds out that none of these people will 414 00:13:41,799 --> 00:13:43,799 ever go to prison? Then what will we 415 00:13:43,799 --> 00:13:44,299 do? 416 00:13:44,834 --> 00:13:46,995 We'll demoralize them. That's what we'll do. Right. 417 00:13:46,995 --> 00:13:48,514 I mean, that's such an important point in 418 00:13:48,514 --> 00:13:50,514 all this. And, you know, and we often 419 00:13:50,514 --> 00:13:52,355 touch on this, the, you know, the reality 420 00:13:52,355 --> 00:13:54,355 of people the awareness of what's happening right 421 00:13:54,355 --> 00:13:55,954 now. I tend to think it's clearly the 422 00:13:55,954 --> 00:13:58,139 majority of pretty much everybody, But what's it's 423 00:13:58,299 --> 00:14:00,299 what does that an honest person has to 424 00:14:00,299 --> 00:14:01,740 be able to see that. And it's like 425 00:14:01,819 --> 00:14:03,500 let's just say they're still waiting and biding 426 00:14:03,500 --> 00:14:05,100 their time here. You've got a I mean, 427 00:14:05,100 --> 00:14:07,500 that meme is going around. Epstein, January 6, 428 00:14:07,500 --> 00:14:09,659 Social Security, just 0000. 429 00:14:09,659 --> 00:14:12,379 Right? There's nobody nobody of substance is being 430 00:14:12,379 --> 00:14:14,625 arrested Of all the people they've been screaming 431 00:14:14,625 --> 00:14:16,024 about, of all the Joneses out there telling 432 00:14:16,024 --> 00:14:17,424 you, if we can just keep Trump alive, 433 00:14:17,424 --> 00:14:19,424 they're all going down. You know, the Comey 434 00:14:19,424 --> 00:14:21,504 thing, the Letitia James thing, even Bolton, I'm 435 00:14:21,504 --> 00:14:23,345 convinced those are all designed to fail. Two 436 00:14:23,345 --> 00:14:24,705 of them already have. You know? And then 437 00:14:24,705 --> 00:14:26,544 Trump blames Bondi for not doing something about 438 00:14:26,544 --> 00:14:28,144 it. Like, this still is very cultivated. You 439 00:14:28,144 --> 00:14:28,529 know? 440 00:14:29,009 --> 00:14:29,509 So 441 00:14:31,090 --> 00:14:33,330 Walls, Ilhan Omar, okay. I I I think 442 00:14:33,330 --> 00:14:35,170 they're all criminals, but whether there's the the 443 00:14:35,250 --> 00:14:37,009 what they're pointing to here is in fact 444 00:14:37,009 --> 00:14:39,570 showing they're criminals, I haven't seen provable evidence, 445 00:14:39,570 --> 00:14:41,649 but it wouldn't surprise me. But if they're 446 00:14:41,649 --> 00:14:43,815 not arrested because that's what they're pointing to, 447 00:14:43,894 --> 00:14:45,495 that needs to show everybody something, and I 448 00:14:45,495 --> 00:14:47,414 think it does. Average, honest people are gonna 449 00:14:47,414 --> 00:14:49,254 go, okay. How many times in a row 450 00:14:49,254 --> 00:14:51,975 can we see narrative, narrative bluster, screaming, it's 451 00:14:51,975 --> 00:14:53,815 the biggest story in the world, and nobody 452 00:14:53,815 --> 00:14:55,735 gets held accountable, you know, from the people 453 00:14:55,735 --> 00:14:57,639 you're supporting? You know? It is, I think, 454 00:14:57,639 --> 00:14:59,639 one of the most important points is who 455 00:14:59,639 --> 00:15:01,799 who does and doesn't get arrested. You know? 456 00:15:01,799 --> 00:15:03,159 And then and then I think there are 457 00:15:03,159 --> 00:15:04,839 other reports of this that are super interesting. 458 00:15:04,839 --> 00:15:05,580 That first, 459 00:15:05,959 --> 00:15:07,799 on top of that, the Somalian part of 460 00:15:07,799 --> 00:15:09,580 it, I find it so frustrating that 461 00:15:10,274 --> 00:15:12,134 it's like the immigration part in general. 462 00:15:12,514 --> 00:15:14,534 It's crazy to me that you can 463 00:15:14,914 --> 00:15:17,475 point out this story, which implicitly I could 464 00:15:17,634 --> 00:15:19,394 in within the story itself, the way it's 465 00:15:19,394 --> 00:15:21,075 being told is these Somali people are being 466 00:15:21,075 --> 00:15:23,019 taken advantage of. Right? Or or you could 467 00:15:23,019 --> 00:15:25,259 argue that individual people are then gaining from 468 00:15:25,259 --> 00:15:27,580 the criminal activity of the government. But what 469 00:15:27,660 --> 00:15:30,059 the argument I it's it seems unfounded to 470 00:15:30,059 --> 00:15:32,000 say that the Somalian people are 471 00:15:32,379 --> 00:15:34,860 willfully defrauding the the government as opposed to 472 00:15:34,860 --> 00:15:37,705 a government entity, Maul's Ilhan Omar creating a 473 00:15:37,705 --> 00:15:40,285 system which they profit from using this system. 474 00:15:40,345 --> 00:15:41,544 Both of those things don't seem to make 475 00:15:41,544 --> 00:15:43,384 sense because one person's exploiting the other. Right? 476 00:15:43,384 --> 00:15:44,345 And so at the end of the day, 477 00:15:44,345 --> 00:15:46,345 it becomes the Somali people. You get Jack 478 00:15:46,345 --> 00:15:48,184 Posobiec out there going, well, we imported Somali 479 00:15:48,184 --> 00:15:50,250 pirates. It's just it's just on its face 480 00:15:50,250 --> 00:15:52,250 kind of embarrassing, the broad brush kind of 481 00:15:52,250 --> 00:15:54,409 conversation. And so that constantly be is a 482 00:15:54,409 --> 00:15:56,009 is a factor. And I think that's about 483 00:15:56,009 --> 00:15:58,169 creating hatred toward the people who are clearly 484 00:15:58,169 --> 00:15:59,850 not you know, as always, it's the government. 485 00:15:59,850 --> 00:16:02,009 It's the people playing us against ourselves, making 486 00:16:02,009 --> 00:16:03,725 us focus on each other. And that's a 487 00:16:03,725 --> 00:16:05,004 core point for what we're dealing with in 488 00:16:05,004 --> 00:16:08,144 this country as well. A mutually parasitic relationship 489 00:16:08,524 --> 00:16:10,685 created by a group, the government, who has 490 00:16:10,685 --> 00:16:12,445 a long track record of doing things like 491 00:16:12,445 --> 00:16:14,205 this, and they have the expertise and know 492 00:16:14,205 --> 00:16:16,865 how to to to manipulate a group 493 00:16:17,279 --> 00:16:19,519 into a situation like this. Hey. Come to 494 00:16:19,519 --> 00:16:20,100 The States. 495 00:16:21,039 --> 00:16:22,879 We'll take care of you. We'll hook you 496 00:16:22,879 --> 00:16:24,159 up. We'll give you you know, I don't 497 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,240 we don't know what promises were made. We're 498 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:27,839 gonna get whatever it is is better than 499 00:16:27,839 --> 00:16:30,240 your current situation living in Mogadishu in a 500 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,315 war torn you know, with warlords and, of 501 00:16:32,315 --> 00:16:33,995 course, The US is in there stirring up 502 00:16:33,995 --> 00:16:36,075 problems. And when you saw Blackhawk down those 503 00:16:36,075 --> 00:16:37,514 with that there that 504 00:16:38,075 --> 00:16:39,675 I mean, don't use that as a history 505 00:16:39,675 --> 00:16:40,715 lesson, but, you know, if you saw the 506 00:16:40,715 --> 00:16:42,075 movie, you know that there was an issue 507 00:16:42,075 --> 00:16:43,535 in '93 in Somalia. 508 00:16:44,075 --> 00:16:44,575 But, 509 00:16:45,035 --> 00:16:45,615 you know, 510 00:16:46,110 --> 00:16:47,089 they came to 511 00:16:47,389 --> 00:16:49,950 Minnesota in general, Minneapolis in particular, but it 512 00:16:49,950 --> 00:16:51,169 wasn't limited to that 513 00:16:51,870 --> 00:16:54,029 with some sort of pipeline, with some sort 514 00:16:54,029 --> 00:16:54,690 of reasoning. 515 00:16:55,070 --> 00:16:57,230 Mhmm. And the government you you have to 516 00:16:57,230 --> 00:16:57,970 ask, like, 517 00:16:58,725 --> 00:17:02,084 okay. What's in it for us, the people? 518 00:17:02,084 --> 00:17:04,804 Well, the answer is not a ton, but 519 00:17:04,804 --> 00:17:06,345 in for the government itself, 520 00:17:06,644 --> 00:17:08,724 it becomes very I mean, very you are 521 00:17:08,724 --> 00:17:09,224 importing 522 00:17:09,765 --> 00:17:11,220 a voting block that is 523 00:17:11,700 --> 00:17:14,099 will be generationally loyal to you. I don't 524 00:17:14,099 --> 00:17:16,019 know. I agree with that point. That always 525 00:17:16,019 --> 00:17:17,299 comes up. And I and I I thought 526 00:17:17,299 --> 00:17:19,059 it's a valid point to be made about, 527 00:17:19,059 --> 00:17:21,140 like, a loyalty to feeling like you, you 528 00:17:21,140 --> 00:17:22,980 know like, again, let's realize, I think most 529 00:17:22,980 --> 00:17:24,419 people in the world are very aware of 530 00:17:24,419 --> 00:17:26,440 the problems in their countries are largely responsible 531 00:17:26,579 --> 00:17:28,154 because of Western foreign policy, so I don't 532 00:17:28,154 --> 00:17:29,914 think they see the government in a good 533 00:17:29,914 --> 00:17:31,835 light. But, nonetheless, they might be like, okay. 534 00:17:31,835 --> 00:17:33,514 You know, you saved me from even something 535 00:17:33,514 --> 00:17:35,355 you created. I still feel loyal. But is 536 00:17:35,355 --> 00:17:37,434 that to one party? Because I we can 537 00:17:37,434 --> 00:17:39,194 go back through multiple administrations and show that 538 00:17:39,194 --> 00:17:40,799 this was still continuing. You know? So it 539 00:17:40,799 --> 00:17:42,319 it tends to be used as an argument 540 00:17:42,319 --> 00:17:44,240 that sort of they're importing votes, and I 541 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:45,519 think you can prove that's not the way 542 00:17:45,519 --> 00:17:46,799 it's been for a long time if ever. 543 00:17:46,799 --> 00:17:47,919 You know, that it's more of a fixed 544 00:17:47,919 --> 00:17:49,539 bag. In the black community 545 00:17:49,919 --> 00:17:51,679 in like, I could speak where I was 546 00:17:51,679 --> 00:17:53,700 in LA, living in in in California 547 00:17:54,319 --> 00:17:56,234 for thirty years, in LA for twenty years. 548 00:17:56,634 --> 00:17:57,454 In LA, 549 00:17:58,154 --> 00:18:00,315 they bought the Democrats bought the black vote. 550 00:18:00,315 --> 00:18:02,714 There was no I know that happens. That's 551 00:18:02,714 --> 00:18:03,914 not what I was saying. Bought with welfare 552 00:18:03,914 --> 00:18:05,674 and and the LA County has the highest 553 00:18:05,674 --> 00:18:07,275 percentage of welfare. I mean, it's just straight 554 00:18:07,275 --> 00:18:09,434 up bought. So in in a sense that 555 00:18:09,515 --> 00:18:11,480 I I don't when I say when I 556 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,160 say loyalty, I mean, you 557 00:18:13,799 --> 00:18:15,559 you're you're loyal as long as you're being 558 00:18:15,559 --> 00:18:17,480 taken care of. You're being taken care of 559 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,380 because you provide something to the Democratic Party. 560 00:18:20,519 --> 00:18:22,359 You provide a block. You you you're a 561 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,440 chunk that nope that the other team can't 562 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,195 get to. At least that's when they may 563 00:18:26,195 --> 00:18:27,634 see it as the as the government. They 564 00:18:27,634 --> 00:18:28,875 may feel like they're doing that. I just 565 00:18:28,994 --> 00:18:30,115 my point is that I just don't think 566 00:18:30,115 --> 00:18:31,555 it translates the way that we tend to 567 00:18:31,555 --> 00:18:33,474 feel like it does, especially just the broad 568 00:18:33,474 --> 00:18:35,715 immigration point, which tends to be just bringing 569 00:18:35,715 --> 00:18:37,555 in immigrants because they're gonna vote Democrat. I 570 00:18:37,555 --> 00:18:39,394 don't think that's even provable anymore. Like, I 571 00:18:39,394 --> 00:18:40,799 think it's different. But you make a valid 572 00:18:40,799 --> 00:18:43,119 point. They don't need them anymore. They don't 573 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:44,960 even need actual people. You know my opinion. 574 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:45,839 I don't think they need any of it, 575 00:18:45,839 --> 00:18:46,740 but they They 576 00:18:48,559 --> 00:18:49,779 they to keep the theater 577 00:18:50,319 --> 00:18:52,000 alive, you know, to keep that going and 578 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:53,704 to keep and to keep, 579 00:18:54,085 --> 00:18:55,924 you know, what would like, Carlin would say, 580 00:18:55,924 --> 00:18:57,684 like, keep the pressure on the middle class. 581 00:18:57,684 --> 00:18:58,744 Right? Keep keep 582 00:18:59,125 --> 00:19:00,744 keep keep the keep the, you know, import 583 00:19:01,044 --> 00:19:03,044 a a a new generation. You've got to, 584 00:19:03,044 --> 00:19:04,325 you know, you've got it. You might you 585 00:19:04,325 --> 00:19:06,724 may have a demographic situation with baby boomers 586 00:19:06,724 --> 00:19:07,410 aging out. 587 00:19:07,970 --> 00:19:09,269 You bring in a 588 00:19:09,890 --> 00:19:10,710 a a lower class 589 00:19:11,170 --> 00:19:11,670 that's 590 00:19:12,609 --> 00:19:13,830 that's dependent on welfare 591 00:19:14,529 --> 00:19:15,029 and 592 00:19:15,410 --> 00:19:17,650 will be easily manipulated by the state, 593 00:19:18,049 --> 00:19:19,570 into a variety of things. I mean, we're 594 00:19:19,570 --> 00:19:20,869 not we haven't gotten into 595 00:19:22,194 --> 00:19:23,554 UBI at this point, but this is a 596 00:19:23,875 --> 00:19:25,634 it's a soft form of it, I suppose, 597 00:19:25,634 --> 00:19:28,355 in in in any sort of, government handout 598 00:19:28,355 --> 00:19:31,234 program. It's it's it's a feeder mechanism into 599 00:19:31,234 --> 00:19:33,575 full blown UBI It's dependent. At some point. 600 00:19:33,789 --> 00:19:35,390 Yeah. Any in any way they can get 601 00:19:35,390 --> 00:19:37,710 you dependent on them being there, whatever that 602 00:19:37,710 --> 00:19:39,549 means, you know, then it becomes a coercive 603 00:19:39,549 --> 00:19:41,150 measure. Like, then that can be used against 604 00:19:41,150 --> 00:19:42,349 you. You can say, can we hold this 605 00:19:42,349 --> 00:19:43,630 if you don't comply with the shot or 606 00:19:43,630 --> 00:19:45,710 whatever it becomes. You know, that that's very 607 00:19:45,710 --> 00:19:47,869 important. So you're right. Those are valid points 608 00:19:47,869 --> 00:19:50,304 at any level because any kind of overlap 609 00:19:50,304 --> 00:19:52,304 like that can be used, driven, or even 610 00:19:52,304 --> 00:19:54,224 just in hopes that they feel you're the 611 00:19:54,224 --> 00:19:55,904 one helping them. But I just I think 612 00:19:55,904 --> 00:19:57,424 the larger point is that that's not as 613 00:19:57,424 --> 00:19:58,625 clear as it used to be, if it 614 00:19:58,625 --> 00:20:00,464 ever was. And people like, I mean, Trump 615 00:20:00,464 --> 00:20:02,609 in his last administration and now. Right? And, 616 00:20:02,609 --> 00:20:04,089 of course, this could be him just blustering 617 00:20:04,089 --> 00:20:06,170 for campaign stuff, but always talks about the 618 00:20:06,170 --> 00:20:07,930 black vote, the Mexican vote, and acting like 619 00:20:07,970 --> 00:20:09,529 you know, saying that they're mostly on his 620 00:20:09,529 --> 00:20:11,049 side. Well, that's the my point is if 621 00:20:11,049 --> 00:20:12,569 that's the case, then that doesn't seem to 622 00:20:12,569 --> 00:20:14,009 represent what they claim it does. But I 623 00:20:14,009 --> 00:20:15,529 think you made the biggest point there that 624 00:20:15,529 --> 00:20:17,095 at the end of the day, if you 625 00:20:17,335 --> 00:20:19,014 if you know, I believe that this has 626 00:20:19,014 --> 00:20:20,534 been stolen from us a long time ago, 627 00:20:20,534 --> 00:20:21,914 so it's really about presenting 628 00:20:22,214 --> 00:20:24,774 the, like, you know, the illusion, but also 629 00:20:24,774 --> 00:20:26,774 a secondary thought of just creating the fodder 630 00:20:26,774 --> 00:20:27,974 for us to be yelling at while they're 631 00:20:27,974 --> 00:20:29,569 back here controlling our lives because because that's 632 00:20:29,569 --> 00:20:31,490 what it kinda feels like. Well, there's also 633 00:20:31,490 --> 00:20:34,690 the the another component to this, which which 634 00:20:34,690 --> 00:20:37,029 really kinda happened under the the Biden administration 635 00:20:37,089 --> 00:20:38,930 when you were seeing a a mass influx 636 00:20:38,930 --> 00:20:41,009 of people from the Southern border into places 637 00:20:41,009 --> 00:20:43,045 like Chicago. And then you were having the 638 00:20:43,045 --> 00:20:46,265 existing community in Chicago who had been receiving 639 00:20:46,325 --> 00:20:47,225 well handouts, 640 00:20:47,924 --> 00:20:48,904 welfare for 641 00:20:50,005 --> 00:20:50,664 for generations. 642 00:20:51,365 --> 00:20:53,765 They were up in arms because their cheese 643 00:20:53,765 --> 00:20:55,990 was being taken by the new group of 644 00:20:55,990 --> 00:20:57,990 people, and they were pitting this group against 645 00:20:57,990 --> 00:20:59,349 one another. And you could see that and 646 00:20:59,349 --> 00:21:01,910 you go, oh, I've seen this movie before. 647 00:21:01,910 --> 00:21:03,509 I know. I know what's going on here. 648 00:21:03,509 --> 00:21:05,509 Say, that guy is trying to take your 649 00:21:05,509 --> 00:21:06,009 stuff. 650 00:21:07,269 --> 00:21:09,589 And then and just get them fighting against 651 00:21:09,589 --> 00:21:11,414 one another, and you can see how that 652 00:21:11,414 --> 00:21:13,015 could be used as a, you know, like, 653 00:21:13,015 --> 00:21:14,694 what is the purpose of importing all these 654 00:21:14,694 --> 00:21:16,714 people in? Oh, one 655 00:21:17,255 --> 00:21:19,654 might not be the only purpose, but one 656 00:21:19,654 --> 00:21:23,034 definite reason is to make everybody else 657 00:21:23,859 --> 00:21:26,039 who went through the normal legal 658 00:21:26,500 --> 00:21:30,339 traditional immigration process, make them resent you. Yeah. 659 00:21:30,339 --> 00:21:33,139 That's one that's one nice side effect. You're 660 00:21:33,139 --> 00:21:34,740 gonna have a segment of the of the 661 00:21:34,740 --> 00:21:37,784 population that's gonna always resent these other I 662 00:21:37,784 --> 00:21:39,144 did it the right way. It took me 663 00:21:39,144 --> 00:21:40,505 five years. I had to go through all 664 00:21:40,505 --> 00:21:42,904 these interviews with these stupid people and take 665 00:21:42,904 --> 00:21:44,345 all these tests and those, and I did 666 00:21:44,345 --> 00:21:45,865 the whole thing and paid the money, and 667 00:21:45,865 --> 00:21:47,704 I got the right way. And these assholes 668 00:21:47,704 --> 00:21:50,009 just walked across the border. How dare they? 669 00:21:50,009 --> 00:21:51,769 And, oh, well, you're all we're all immigrants. 670 00:21:51,769 --> 00:21:53,450 No. Wait a second. I'm different than them. 671 00:21:53,450 --> 00:21:54,570 I did it the right way. They're not 672 00:21:54,650 --> 00:21:56,809 and so there's a different tier system there. 673 00:21:56,809 --> 00:21:58,570 You know? So It is high. Yep. And 674 00:21:58,570 --> 00:22:01,769 it's just chaos and and frustration, and you 675 00:22:01,769 --> 00:22:03,744 you know, those people got that stuff, and 676 00:22:03,744 --> 00:22:05,345 I should have gotten that, and I I 677 00:22:05,345 --> 00:22:06,944 did it the right way, and where's my 678 00:22:06,944 --> 00:22:08,625 stuff? And then you go, well, why should 679 00:22:08,625 --> 00:22:10,325 I even be paying taxes at all? 680 00:22:11,345 --> 00:22:13,345 Yeah. Right? And you get to people to 681 00:22:13,345 --> 00:22:14,704 the point where they throw their hands up 682 00:22:14,704 --> 00:22:15,365 and go, 683 00:22:15,744 --> 00:22:16,884 it's so crazy. 684 00:22:17,630 --> 00:22:19,950 I feel like I'm the sucker for playing 685 00:22:19,950 --> 00:22:20,769 by the rules. 686 00:22:21,070 --> 00:22:23,070 Yeah. Maybe I should stop playing by the 687 00:22:23,070 --> 00:22:25,630 rules because, apparently, the rules only apply to 688 00:22:25,630 --> 00:22:26,130 me. 689 00:22:26,670 --> 00:22:28,110 That's a very good point in a larger 690 00:22:28,110 --> 00:22:29,150 sense as well. I think it's what a 691 00:22:29,150 --> 00:22:30,590 lot of Americans are going through, but it 692 00:22:30,590 --> 00:22:32,323 might very well be weaponized to drive us 693 00:22:32,323 --> 00:22:32,924 into accepting what they present to us 694 00:22:33,884 --> 00:22:36,205 next. Right? We're always talking about that. But 695 00:22:36,205 --> 00:22:38,625 what's what's interesting though is the core point 696 00:22:38,684 --> 00:22:41,085 before that secondary discussion, what does it what 697 00:22:41,085 --> 00:22:42,365 does it do? Well, it makes you fight 698 00:22:42,365 --> 00:22:43,884 your neighbor. It makes you ignore the fact 699 00:22:43,884 --> 00:22:45,404 that the problems you're dealing with have nothing 700 00:22:45,404 --> 00:22:46,924 to do with the group they also brought 701 00:22:46,924 --> 00:22:48,660 in but the people doing the string pulling. 702 00:22:48,660 --> 00:22:50,900 You know? And it's so easy to see. 703 00:22:50,900 --> 00:22:52,420 Now that's not to say that there's I 704 00:22:52,420 --> 00:22:54,180 mean, it's always a mixed bag. Even in 705 00:22:54,180 --> 00:22:55,859 the Somali conversation, what I said was not 706 00:22:55,859 --> 00:22:57,380 meant to imply that there's not people who 707 00:22:57,380 --> 00:23:00,420 are choosing to deliberately defraud the government. That 708 00:23:00,420 --> 00:23:03,059 happens here, there, black, white, Jewish, Christian, it 709 00:23:03,059 --> 00:23:04,434 happens all over the place. You know? And 710 00:23:04,434 --> 00:23:05,875 so it's important to see that at the 711 00:23:05,875 --> 00:23:07,315 end of the day, these are just average 712 00:23:07,315 --> 00:23:09,315 people trying to get by. And, really, what's 713 00:23:09,315 --> 00:23:10,835 funny is from a core like, even from 714 00:23:10,835 --> 00:23:12,835 a Republican standpoint, are you really gonna begrudge 715 00:23:12,835 --> 00:23:14,434 somebody for screwing over a government that we 716 00:23:14,434 --> 00:23:16,115 all criticize that's robbing us every day and 717 00:23:16,115 --> 00:23:18,069 killing people around the world? It's interesting the 718 00:23:18,069 --> 00:23:19,349 lines we draw for how we think we're 719 00:23:19,349 --> 00:23:21,349 defending our own team when it's really just 720 00:23:21,349 --> 00:23:23,349 you defending the power. The rebels right at 721 00:23:23,349 --> 00:23:25,269 the deep state are out there circling around 722 00:23:25,269 --> 00:23:27,190 the government going, you're you know, it's like 723 00:23:27,190 --> 00:23:28,409 acting like the defenders. 724 00:23:28,859 --> 00:23:29,690 It's a great 725 00:23:30,144 --> 00:23:32,545 it's a it's a great opportunity for people 726 00:23:32,545 --> 00:23:34,164 to really workshop their ideas 727 00:23:34,545 --> 00:23:36,785 and think about this because you're you're just 728 00:23:36,785 --> 00:23:38,464 tempted to wanna come out and say something. 729 00:23:38,464 --> 00:23:40,305 You go, wait a second. Yeah. I shouldn't 730 00:23:40,545 --> 00:23:42,565 yeah. You you wanna go, well well, 731 00:23:43,470 --> 00:23:45,069 maybe I should just defraud the government, get 732 00:23:45,069 --> 00:23:47,069 on on on welfare too. If all these 733 00:23:47,069 --> 00:23:48,269 people, they made it look so easy. I 734 00:23:48,269 --> 00:23:49,390 mean, I feel like a sucker. And you 735 00:23:49,390 --> 00:23:51,170 go, no. No. No. No. No. No. I'm 736 00:23:51,309 --> 00:23:52,369 that I'm being 737 00:23:52,990 --> 00:23:55,069 I'm I'm walking myself into a trap here. 738 00:23:55,069 --> 00:23:56,429 Hang on a second. I feel you know? 739 00:23:56,429 --> 00:23:59,605 So to to be aware of the manipulation 740 00:23:59,904 --> 00:24:01,984 is to be to an extent a little 741 00:24:01,984 --> 00:24:04,304 bit more immune to from it. Yeah. Right. 742 00:24:04,304 --> 00:24:05,924 But but for most people, 743 00:24:06,384 --> 00:24:08,224 they just know they're angry. They don't even 744 00:24:08,224 --> 00:24:10,190 know why they're angry. Some cases, they don't 745 00:24:10,190 --> 00:24:12,910 even know who they're actually angry at, just 746 00:24:12,910 --> 00:24:15,710 who they're told. Those people took your stuff. 747 00:24:15,710 --> 00:24:17,890 Those people want you to have less, 748 00:24:18,509 --> 00:24:20,509 and and they're here. And then you go, 749 00:24:20,509 --> 00:24:21,009 well, 750 00:24:22,715 --> 00:24:24,715 that's crazy. That shouldn't be happening. And then 751 00:24:24,715 --> 00:24:25,615 you observe 752 00:24:26,075 --> 00:24:27,055 your own government 753 00:24:27,434 --> 00:24:29,455 actually doing that, bending over backwards, 754 00:24:29,994 --> 00:24:32,875 giving them hotel rooms and and debit cards 755 00:24:32,875 --> 00:24:34,255 and cell phones and 756 00:24:34,710 --> 00:24:36,630 moving them around the country wherever they wanna 757 00:24:36,630 --> 00:24:37,909 go and setting them up, and you go, 758 00:24:37,909 --> 00:24:39,269 well, hang on a second. I didn't know 759 00:24:39,269 --> 00:24:41,029 this was an option. You know? And and 760 00:24:41,029 --> 00:24:42,470 and I'm down on my luck, and I've 761 00:24:42,470 --> 00:24:44,789 been paying taxes, and I need unemployment. You're 762 00:24:44,789 --> 00:24:47,474 denying me unemployment because I make too much 763 00:24:47,714 --> 00:24:50,375 from some of you know? But and therefore 764 00:24:50,674 --> 00:24:52,835 but this whole family can get you know? 765 00:24:52,835 --> 00:24:53,815 You see that 766 00:24:54,515 --> 00:24:55,494 the unfairness 767 00:24:56,275 --> 00:24:57,414 Mhmm. Gets gets 768 00:24:57,794 --> 00:24:58,294 internalized 769 00:24:58,674 --> 00:24:59,414 in people. 770 00:24:59,950 --> 00:25:01,789 And, you know, if you're looking for I 771 00:25:01,789 --> 00:25:03,230 don't wanna go Tim Pool here. If you're 772 00:25:03,309 --> 00:25:05,070 but if you're looking for a civil war 773 00:25:05,070 --> 00:25:07,630 and you're looking for that, you gotta wind 774 00:25:07,630 --> 00:25:09,390 people up for a while, and you gotta 775 00:25:09,390 --> 00:25:11,565 get them to just watch this and watch 776 00:25:11,804 --> 00:25:14,125 how unfair things have been and how crazy 777 00:25:14,125 --> 00:25:15,804 it's been and up is down and men 778 00:25:15,804 --> 00:25:17,184 can get pregnant and all this. 779 00:25:17,484 --> 00:25:18,924 And and some of it is, like, you 780 00:25:18,924 --> 00:25:21,024 know, frustrating, but kind of annoying 781 00:25:21,565 --> 00:25:23,644 and laughable. And some of it really starts 782 00:25:23,644 --> 00:25:26,309 to impact you. And so and financially and 783 00:25:26,309 --> 00:25:28,549 and you start to extrapolate out, well, based 784 00:25:28,549 --> 00:25:30,789 on the rate of how bad things are 785 00:25:30,789 --> 00:25:32,710 going right now, we don't have much time 786 00:25:32,710 --> 00:25:35,269 left and Yes. Everybody seems to be focusing 787 00:25:35,269 --> 00:25:37,670 on the minutia at the expense of all 788 00:25:37,670 --> 00:25:39,210 the important issues and, 789 00:25:39,994 --> 00:25:41,755 you know, and what what does that do? 790 00:25:41,755 --> 00:25:43,055 What does that well, I'll tell 791 00:25:43,835 --> 00:25:45,674 you what it does for one segment of 792 00:25:45,674 --> 00:25:48,255 society. It keeps the government extremely relevant. 793 00:25:48,634 --> 00:25:50,634 Mhmm. Where they need them. They need the 794 00:25:50,634 --> 00:25:53,055 government. They need the the handouts. They need 795 00:25:53,195 --> 00:25:55,049 to be told where to go and what 796 00:25:55,049 --> 00:25:56,490 to do and what they can get. They 797 00:25:56,490 --> 00:25:58,730 need the they need that. And as long 798 00:25:58,730 --> 00:26:00,490 as those people are there needing the government, 799 00:26:00,490 --> 00:26:01,950 the government can stay relevant 800 00:26:02,329 --> 00:26:04,589 and bleed the rest of us, 801 00:26:05,929 --> 00:26:08,970 into supporting this, this insanity. And and heaven 802 00:26:08,970 --> 00:26:10,964 forbid that you see it and talk about 803 00:26:11,184 --> 00:26:13,024 it. Yeah. They wanna fit you for a 804 00:26:13,024 --> 00:26:14,944 a a straight jacket and a tinfoil hat. 805 00:26:14,944 --> 00:26:16,784 Yeah. Well, and and the other part too 806 00:26:16,784 --> 00:26:18,464 is that at a large scale, it seems 807 00:26:18,464 --> 00:26:19,984 to me, at least, across the board, we're 808 00:26:19,984 --> 00:26:22,559 seeing this justification. You know, might makes right. 809 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,720 Excuse me. Peace through strength. The same same 810 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,640 stupid conversation. At the end of the day, 811 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,039 it's about creating the idea that, well, you 812 00:26:29,039 --> 00:26:30,960 know, like, let's make it simple. That somebody 813 00:26:31,039 --> 00:26:32,559 they could look at they just did this 814 00:26:32,559 --> 00:26:34,320 wrong thing that we cry out and say 815 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:36,160 that's a crime, it's a war crime, and 816 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:37,519 now we're gonna do it back to them 817 00:26:37,519 --> 00:26:39,795 because they started it, which is what I 818 00:26:39,795 --> 00:26:42,355 mean, it's happening everywhere. You know? And and 819 00:26:42,355 --> 00:26:44,275 the argument that, you know like, whatever it 820 00:26:44,275 --> 00:26:46,035 is, violating the constitution so we have to 821 00:26:46,035 --> 00:26:47,394 do that to save it. You know? It's 822 00:26:47,394 --> 00:26:49,714 it's the it's creating the mindset that we 823 00:26:49,714 --> 00:26:51,154 need to do the wrong thing to fight 824 00:26:51,154 --> 00:26:52,940 against the wrong thing, And it's exactly what 825 00:26:52,940 --> 00:26:54,619 was highlighted there. You know? The idea, well, 826 00:26:54,619 --> 00:26:55,980 they're why why would I have to do 827 00:26:55,980 --> 00:26:57,180 this because they didn't get to do it? 828 00:26:57,180 --> 00:26:59,259 Well, because you have morals and integrity and 829 00:26:59,259 --> 00:27:00,859 principles. Like, the idea that you would go, 830 00:27:00,859 --> 00:27:03,099 they're terrible, so I'm gonna do it. Well, 831 00:27:03,099 --> 00:27:04,700 then you're terrible. Like, you've just made the 832 00:27:04,700 --> 00:27:06,194 point. Like, it's but it's it it it 833 00:27:06,194 --> 00:27:08,674 becomes logical. It feels that way when it's 834 00:27:08,674 --> 00:27:10,914 being presented as if you're being stolen from 835 00:27:10,914 --> 00:27:13,075 or you're being manipulated, and so you almost 836 00:27:13,075 --> 00:27:14,994 wanna stop that or get that. We all 837 00:27:14,994 --> 00:27:16,275 have that kind of inclination to be like, 838 00:27:16,275 --> 00:27:17,714 well, I wanna shove it in their face 839 00:27:17,714 --> 00:27:18,914 and tell them that they're wrong. You know? 840 00:27:18,914 --> 00:27:20,570 It's like, but sometimes that's not the right 841 00:27:20,570 --> 00:27:21,850 thing to do. And on top of that, 842 00:27:21,850 --> 00:27:23,450 the government is waiting in the wings going 843 00:27:23,450 --> 00:27:24,970 like, just go after them. Go and attack 844 00:27:24,970 --> 00:27:26,330 them. You know? And and it's being used. 845 00:27:26,330 --> 00:27:27,690 But I I just think that's important. You 846 00:27:27,690 --> 00:27:29,130 made a good point there about how the 847 00:27:29,130 --> 00:27:30,910 the psychology of it is creating 848 00:27:31,570 --> 00:27:33,369 they as always, they want us to call 849 00:27:33,369 --> 00:27:35,585 for our own subjugation. Right? And that's happening 850 00:27:35,585 --> 00:27:38,545 constantly today. And our reality is being curated 851 00:27:38,545 --> 00:27:40,465 too. Each each one of us has has 852 00:27:40,465 --> 00:27:42,545 sort of an it's like, what reality is 853 00:27:42,545 --> 00:27:44,005 that guy living in? Well, 854 00:27:44,785 --> 00:27:47,684 actually, the answer is a totally different reality 855 00:27:47,904 --> 00:27:49,744 based on what he's being served up by 856 00:27:49,744 --> 00:27:51,799 his algorithms and things like that. And, you 857 00:27:51,799 --> 00:27:53,240 know, it used to kind of be a 858 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,059 throwaway line that someone's in a different universe. 859 00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,519 But but depending on their information diet, they've 860 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,839 they really may very well be if you've 861 00:28:02,839 --> 00:28:04,605 if you've ever had that, you know, as 862 00:28:04,605 --> 00:28:06,605 we've wrapped up the holidays here, you've you've 863 00:28:06,605 --> 00:28:08,684 probably had these forced interactions with members of 864 00:28:08,684 --> 00:28:11,005 your extended family where you start to ask 865 00:28:11,005 --> 00:28:13,244 questions or have conversations. You maybe get a 866 00:28:13,244 --> 00:28:15,805 little gauge, their level of understanding of certain 867 00:28:15,805 --> 00:28:18,589 things. And if you you come away from 868 00:28:18,589 --> 00:28:20,269 that in the aftermath, you go, boy, you 869 00:28:20,269 --> 00:28:20,769 know, 870 00:28:22,109 --> 00:28:24,669 propaganda works. Mhmm. It's I see it with 871 00:28:24,669 --> 00:28:26,529 my own eyes. It's quite something. 872 00:28:26,829 --> 00:28:27,329 And 873 00:28:27,630 --> 00:28:30,194 in fact, that that that old adage of, 874 00:28:30,194 --> 00:28:32,035 you know, you just you think you're you're 875 00:28:32,035 --> 00:28:33,494 living in a different universe, 876 00:28:33,795 --> 00:28:34,535 you know, 877 00:28:34,994 --> 00:28:36,434 it might have been a it might have 878 00:28:36,434 --> 00:28:39,255 been just a kind of a a laughable 879 00:28:39,315 --> 00:28:41,974 statement in the past, but but they've never 880 00:28:42,849 --> 00:28:44,929 had the technology to do it like they 881 00:28:44,929 --> 00:28:46,389 like they can right now 882 00:28:47,009 --> 00:28:48,869 to really make everybody's 883 00:28:49,649 --> 00:28:51,669 version of what they see in the news, 884 00:28:52,129 --> 00:28:54,929 the the opinions that they get, of a 885 00:28:54,929 --> 00:28:55,429 certain, 886 00:28:56,049 --> 00:28:56,710 you know, 887 00:28:57,494 --> 00:29:00,075 ICE shooting in Minneapolis as a prime example. 888 00:29:00,375 --> 00:29:02,615 Depending on who you are and what your 889 00:29:02,615 --> 00:29:03,275 sort of 890 00:29:03,974 --> 00:29:05,035 leanings are, 891 00:29:05,575 --> 00:29:07,994 your version of that events are are, 892 00:29:08,295 --> 00:29:11,029 you know, completely different from somebody else's. So 893 00:29:11,029 --> 00:29:13,130 it's it's an interesting time to be, 894 00:29:13,830 --> 00:29:15,670 paying attention. You really have to make sure 895 00:29:15,670 --> 00:29:17,430 that when you're talking to people in your 896 00:29:17,430 --> 00:29:20,090 in your orbit, you that they are operating 897 00:29:20,150 --> 00:29:21,990 off of the same source material that you 898 00:29:21,990 --> 00:29:23,684 are or at least as close to it. 899 00:29:24,164 --> 00:29:24,825 Is possible. 900 00:29:25,205 --> 00:29:27,225 I just don't know that that's possible these 901 00:29:27,605 --> 00:29:29,365 days. Well, because because to your very point, 902 00:29:29,365 --> 00:29:31,785 though, it's gone so far beyond just, like, 903 00:29:32,164 --> 00:29:34,085 I'm getting a different source or what I'm 904 00:29:34,085 --> 00:29:36,005 being shown looks different to the point to 905 00:29:36,005 --> 00:29:37,144 where because of psychological 906 00:29:37,445 --> 00:29:38,990 or just social engineering, 907 00:29:40,250 --> 00:29:41,769 cult mentality. I don't know. But to the 908 00:29:41,769 --> 00:29:43,049 point to where you can look at it 909 00:29:43,049 --> 00:29:44,029 at the same video 910 00:29:44,410 --> 00:29:46,250 and walk away, feel you know, like, it's 911 00:29:46,329 --> 00:29:48,009 I think, honestly, I think part of it 912 00:29:48,009 --> 00:29:50,554 drives from wanting to support your side and 913 00:29:50,554 --> 00:29:52,554 going, well, I'm gonna rationalize why even though 914 00:29:52,554 --> 00:29:53,835 it's not what I thought it was, it's 915 00:29:53,835 --> 00:29:55,595 still he still probably was fearing for his 916 00:29:55,595 --> 00:29:57,755 life or whatever the mindset is. And yet, 917 00:29:57,755 --> 00:29:58,795 you know but at the end of the 918 00:29:58,795 --> 00:30:00,795 day, you're watching something that I think is 919 00:30:00,795 --> 00:30:02,474 pretty self evident, and then you get this 920 00:30:02,474 --> 00:30:04,859 weird discussion around it. And, you know, people 921 00:30:04,859 --> 00:30:06,619 will always argue, you know I mean, look, 922 00:30:06,619 --> 00:30:08,619 I'll say it's possible. Maybe I'm taken aside 923 00:30:08,619 --> 00:30:10,059 and don't realize it. Maybe I'm blinded by, 924 00:30:10,059 --> 00:30:11,500 you know, one thing or the other. But 925 00:30:11,500 --> 00:30:12,779 you know both of us. We try to 926 00:30:12,779 --> 00:30:15,019 operate from a nonpartisan objective perspective. And when 927 00:30:15,019 --> 00:30:16,619 you look at information, it's not about what 928 00:30:16,619 --> 00:30:18,380 side I'm on or whether I just support 929 00:30:18,380 --> 00:30:19,660 one group or the other or, you know, 930 00:30:19,660 --> 00:30:21,765 whatever. It's about what does this actually look 931 00:30:21,765 --> 00:30:23,044 like and what is the reality of the 932 00:30:23,044 --> 00:30:25,125 facts. And so let's talk about that because 933 00:30:25,125 --> 00:30:26,345 I think it's confounding 934 00:30:26,644 --> 00:30:27,544 that we're watching 935 00:30:28,164 --> 00:30:30,244 a video that and and we'll go over 936 00:30:30,244 --> 00:30:31,365 it if you want to, and I did 937 00:30:31,365 --> 00:30:33,044 many, many times already. Four that I can 938 00:30:33,044 --> 00:30:34,024 prove bombastically 939 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,120 where ISIS claimed they ran were ran over 940 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:38,880 and they lied about it, and two of 941 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,039 those cases shot people in the context of 942 00:30:41,039 --> 00:30:42,660 it. Car full of family, 943 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:44,320 a woman that they claimed had a gun 944 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,240 that they didn't, and and they, like, rammed 945 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:47,785 her or got out and shot her, And 946 00:30:47,785 --> 00:30:49,224 they glided and said she rammed you know? 947 00:30:49,224 --> 00:30:50,825 And these are provable events. They came out 948 00:30:50,825 --> 00:30:52,265 in court. You know? And so you watch 949 00:30:52,265 --> 00:30:55,384 this video where the conversation about her being 950 00:30:55,384 --> 00:30:57,224 an observer, which is clear, she's not breaking 951 00:30:57,224 --> 00:30:58,984 the law, and ICE is constantly being shown 952 00:30:58,984 --> 00:31:00,095 to break the law. So I think there's 953 00:31:00,095 --> 00:31:01,980 a purpose of cop watching, which used to 954 00:31:01,980 --> 00:31:03,580 be more her right wing thing. That's funny. 955 00:31:03,580 --> 00:31:05,420 Right? But, overall, you know, that you can 956 00:31:05,420 --> 00:31:07,500 see this event play down or play out, 957 00:31:07,500 --> 00:31:09,980 and that she tries to drive, and the 958 00:31:09,980 --> 00:31:12,619 guy is close, and ultimately opens fire in 959 00:31:12,619 --> 00:31:14,059 her car as well as after she drives 960 00:31:14,059 --> 00:31:15,500 away. Now, I don't think he was in 961 00:31:15,500 --> 00:31:17,355 any danger. I think it was obvious that 962 00:31:17,355 --> 00:31:18,715 she was driving away from them, and I 963 00:31:18,715 --> 00:31:20,154 think that the way that they I mean, 964 00:31:20,154 --> 00:31:21,835 I think it's quite obvious that they instigated 965 00:31:21,835 --> 00:31:23,674 this event because they continually are shown to 966 00:31:23,674 --> 00:31:25,434 be frustrated with people who are doing what 967 00:31:25,434 --> 00:31:27,595 they're doing, and that's self evident other examples. 968 00:31:27,595 --> 00:31:29,595 They continue to harass people that are simply 969 00:31:29,595 --> 00:31:31,515 just there. So I want your thoughts on, 970 00:31:31,515 --> 00:31:32,095 you know, 971 00:31:33,059 --> 00:31:34,660 the validity of that, you know, what we 972 00:31:34,660 --> 00:31:36,419 saw, you know, and and and whether I 973 00:31:36,419 --> 00:31:37,700 mean, maybe you disagree with me. Do you 974 00:31:37,700 --> 00:31:39,380 think that this person was justified in killing 975 00:31:39,380 --> 00:31:40,819 that US citizen? I just think this is 976 00:31:40,819 --> 00:31:41,480 a crazy, 977 00:31:41,859 --> 00:31:43,700 crazy leap. And I'm even seeing people like 978 00:31:43,700 --> 00:31:45,460 judge Napolitano and plenty of others who are 979 00:31:45,460 --> 00:31:47,285 just like, ice murder. You know, like, way 980 00:31:47,285 --> 00:31:48,805 on the side people are calling democrat. You 981 00:31:48,805 --> 00:31:50,484 know? So it's an interesting series of events 982 00:31:50,484 --> 00:31:52,505 and important for where this goes. 983 00:31:52,805 --> 00:31:54,585 After watching the Daniel Shaver 984 00:31:54,964 --> 00:31:57,045 murder, you know, I I just I I 985 00:31:57,045 --> 00:31:58,664 know that the Vegas. Right? 986 00:31:59,099 --> 00:32:00,539 Yeah. Yeah. That was I think it was 987 00:32:00,539 --> 00:32:01,039 Colorado. 988 00:32:01,980 --> 00:32:03,259 I'm now I'm thinking of the Vegas one. 989 00:32:03,259 --> 00:32:04,220 Sorry. Go ahead. I was thinking of the 990 00:32:04,220 --> 00:32:05,279 one the guy in the hallway 991 00:32:05,660 --> 00:32:07,980 who there was telling giving orders to to 992 00:32:07,980 --> 00:32:09,500 to get on his knees and laid it. 993 00:32:09,500 --> 00:32:10,940 And they just want Las Vegas. Am I 994 00:32:10,940 --> 00:32:12,539 misremembering that? Anyway, please go ahead. Sorry. I 995 00:32:12,539 --> 00:32:14,355 I think I'm in one. Well, I the 996 00:32:14,355 --> 00:32:16,115 only reason I thought it was in Colorado 997 00:32:16,115 --> 00:32:17,315 is because a bunch of the people in 998 00:32:17,315 --> 00:32:17,815 Denver, 999 00:32:19,315 --> 00:32:21,474 I could be wrong. The the, group I 1000 00:32:21,474 --> 00:32:23,335 go to, they all knew him. 1001 00:32:23,714 --> 00:32:25,154 Okay. Yeah. No. I could definitely be wrong. 1002 00:32:25,154 --> 00:32:26,194 That's just what I was remembering. But but 1003 00:32:26,194 --> 00:32:28,319 but That's an important event. It it made 1004 00:32:28,319 --> 00:32:30,400 me you know, like, you can watch a 1005 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:31,779 video of a man 1006 00:32:32,319 --> 00:32:35,440 doing everything he's told to do, fully complying 1007 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:37,759 with the with the police and winding up 1008 00:32:37,759 --> 00:32:38,980 getting murder 1009 00:32:39,359 --> 00:32:41,095 on video. And then, of course, in the 1010 00:32:41,095 --> 00:32:43,434 aftermath of what happened with the cop getting 1011 00:32:43,734 --> 00:32:44,554 having nothing 1012 00:32:44,934 --> 00:32:46,774 done to him and getting collecting a pension 1013 00:32:46,774 --> 00:32:47,674 and all this 1014 00:32:47,974 --> 00:32:49,434 gross and disgusting. So 1015 00:32:49,734 --> 00:32:52,794 my default mechanism whenever I see cop interactions 1016 00:32:53,095 --> 00:32:54,954 is that I'm always going to be, 1017 00:32:55,815 --> 00:32:56,315 very, 1018 00:32:57,470 --> 00:33:00,269 very skeptical of of the police. I don't, 1019 00:33:00,590 --> 00:33:02,590 I'm not I understand that they have been 1020 00:33:02,590 --> 00:33:04,670 trained. In some some cases, the the police 1021 00:33:04,670 --> 00:33:06,269 forces, depending on where you are, have been 1022 00:33:06,269 --> 00:33:08,369 trained by Yep. Israeli 1023 00:33:08,670 --> 00:33:09,170 forces 1024 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,355 in in in Israeli teams that that that 1025 00:33:12,434 --> 00:33:13,095 you know, 1026 00:33:15,075 --> 00:33:16,835 you you know, it used to be Andy 1027 00:33:16,835 --> 00:33:19,394 Griffith, the the policeman with the blue hat, 1028 00:33:19,394 --> 00:33:21,575 and he'd how you doing? Oh, you have 1029 00:33:21,634 --> 00:33:23,315 a tire flat tire? Let me help you 1030 00:33:23,315 --> 00:33:24,835 with the tire. You know? Have a good 1031 00:33:24,835 --> 00:33:26,250 day, ma'am. And now it's 1032 00:33:26,890 --> 00:33:28,430 police with black hoods 1033 00:33:28,890 --> 00:33:30,190 on and black 1034 00:33:30,490 --> 00:33:33,130 uniforms, and they're dressed like they're in the 1035 00:33:33,130 --> 00:33:35,309 military through the from the 1036 00:33:37,130 --> 00:33:39,315 the October program that recycled all this 1037 00:33:40,355 --> 00:33:42,434 military gear into the police force. So it's 1038 00:33:42,434 --> 00:33:45,394 like you've you're trained by the military, the 1039 00:33:45,394 --> 00:33:48,694 Israeli military. You're armed by the US military. 1040 00:33:49,075 --> 00:33:51,654 You're sent out onto the streets of America 1041 00:33:52,115 --> 00:33:55,049 like you're in a war. My question is, 1042 00:33:55,130 --> 00:33:56,029 who's the enemy? 1043 00:33:56,490 --> 00:33:56,990 Exactly. 1044 00:33:57,289 --> 00:33:59,289 It's very true. And and when you when 1045 00:33:59,289 --> 00:34:01,369 you have that mentality now in a and 1046 00:34:01,369 --> 00:34:03,049 and so but I also have to say 1047 00:34:03,049 --> 00:34:04,830 this as well on the other side, 1048 00:34:07,049 --> 00:34:09,150 and and I'm not in any way justifying 1049 00:34:09,855 --> 00:34:11,855 what police do or ICE do, you know, 1050 00:34:11,855 --> 00:34:13,554 did or or anything like that. 1051 00:34:14,255 --> 00:34:14,755 However, 1052 00:34:15,375 --> 00:34:17,614 there is something to be said for not 1053 00:34:17,614 --> 00:34:20,114 putting yourself in really bad situations 1054 00:34:20,414 --> 00:34:21,074 as well. 1055 00:34:21,454 --> 00:34:23,809 People need to take responsibility for their own 1056 00:34:23,809 --> 00:34:25,489 actions on this stuff. Do I well, first 1057 00:34:25,489 --> 00:34:27,010 of all, I would just advise people, don't 1058 00:34:27,010 --> 00:34:28,929 go to these things. Don't go to these 1059 00:34:28,929 --> 00:34:31,590 events. Don't go to these marches. They're honeypotch. 1060 00:34:31,730 --> 00:34:34,210 I mean, you're getting your surveillance. Your phones 1061 00:34:34,210 --> 00:34:37,055 are being tagged. Everything about it, it's bad. 1062 00:34:37,055 --> 00:34:38,095 Let me give you a minute really quickly, 1063 00:34:38,095 --> 00:34:39,375 Charlie. I get where you're coming from. And 1064 00:34:39,375 --> 00:34:41,215 I do I agree with the sentiment because, 1065 00:34:41,215 --> 00:34:43,474 you know, just from a self preservation perspective, 1066 00:34:43,535 --> 00:34:45,454 like, consider it's like we say with the 1067 00:34:45,535 --> 00:34:47,055 with anything we deal with the police or 1068 00:34:47,055 --> 00:34:49,295 taxes, like, well, you could argue you're correct 1069 00:34:49,295 --> 00:34:50,815 in a moral stance, but they still may 1070 00:34:50,815 --> 00:34:52,349 come and shoot you. Right? So consider that 1071 00:34:52,349 --> 00:34:53,630 that is how that may come out. But 1072 00:34:53,630 --> 00:34:54,909 the I don't think the argument, at least 1073 00:34:54,909 --> 00:34:56,989 from my perspective, would be because they may 1074 00:34:56,989 --> 00:34:59,889 break the like, may violently, you know, illegitimately 1075 00:35:00,909 --> 00:35:02,029 I don't even I don't wanna say hold 1076 00:35:02,029 --> 00:35:04,210 you accountable, but react to what you're doing, 1077 00:35:04,325 --> 00:35:05,684 would the answer be to not do the 1078 00:35:05,684 --> 00:35:07,525 right thing? You know? Because, like, in my 1079 00:35:07,525 --> 00:35:08,025 perspective, 1080 00:35:08,565 --> 00:35:10,644 standing and watching and trying to hold accountable 1081 00:35:10,644 --> 00:35:12,885 people who are verifiably breaking the law with 1082 00:35:12,885 --> 00:35:15,125 the most basic of senses, not identifying themselves, 1083 00:35:15,125 --> 00:35:17,845 not presenting warrants, those are straight up major 1084 00:35:17,845 --> 00:35:20,369 crimes, constitutionally and otherwise. And how that's being 1085 00:35:20,369 --> 00:35:22,210 disregarded blows my mind. And so I'm not 1086 00:35:22,210 --> 00:35:23,730 gonna say there aren't observers out there who 1087 00:35:23,730 --> 00:35:25,409 are crossing the line, who are being, you 1088 00:35:25,409 --> 00:35:27,170 know, violent in some cases. So you can 1089 00:35:27,170 --> 00:35:29,329 find that in every circumstance. But people doing 1090 00:35:29,329 --> 00:35:31,409 that, I think, is important personally. So I 1091 00:35:31,409 --> 00:35:32,855 would argue that the right thing needs to 1092 00:35:32,855 --> 00:35:34,574 be done whether or not they're out there 1093 00:35:34,574 --> 00:35:36,815 reacting in a negative violent way. But I 1094 00:35:36,815 --> 00:35:38,494 agree with you that keep in mind that 1095 00:35:38,494 --> 00:35:39,934 that may actually be the outcome, and that's 1096 00:35:40,094 --> 00:35:41,295 I think that's the whole point of what 1097 00:35:41,295 --> 00:35:43,054 they just did, quite frankly. And you can 1098 00:35:43,054 --> 00:35:46,195 be there as an observer, as as as 1099 00:35:47,059 --> 00:35:49,780 calm, rational, and then not interfering as you 1100 00:35:49,780 --> 00:35:50,280 want. 1101 00:35:50,659 --> 00:35:51,559 And the situation 1102 00:35:52,420 --> 00:35:52,920 escalates 1103 00:35:54,019 --> 00:35:55,480 simply because you have 1104 00:35:56,420 --> 00:35:57,400 hopped up police, 1105 00:35:57,860 --> 00:35:59,239 and you've got very angry 1106 00:36:01,364 --> 00:36:02,885 people that have been whipped up into a 1107 00:36:02,885 --> 00:36:04,724 frenzy for some reason. And when you put 1108 00:36:04,724 --> 00:36:07,385 them together, bad things happen. And in fact, 1109 00:36:07,525 --> 00:36:09,925 in some cases, bad things happen by design 1110 00:36:09,925 --> 00:36:12,500 that they want this. They would So I'm 1111 00:36:12,579 --> 00:36:14,980 I just would tell people, like, just if 1112 00:36:14,980 --> 00:36:16,679 you're in a situation like this, 1113 00:36:17,059 --> 00:36:19,859 just be careful because Yeah. They the it's 1114 00:36:19,859 --> 00:36:20,359 not 1115 00:36:20,819 --> 00:36:22,679 that the police are there to 1116 00:36:24,675 --> 00:36:27,315 talk some sense into these people and diffuse 1117 00:36:27,315 --> 00:36:29,555 the situation. They're going to escalate it. And 1118 00:36:29,555 --> 00:36:31,494 if they escalate it and you're near it, 1119 00:36:31,954 --> 00:36:33,715 bad things can happen. And and I don't 1120 00:36:33,715 --> 00:36:35,474 want people of course, obviously, I mean, I 1121 00:36:35,474 --> 00:36:37,494 want people to to to hold 1122 00:36:37,795 --> 00:36:39,255 these lunatics accountable 1123 00:36:39,555 --> 00:36:41,710 Right. For for being out there. 1124 00:36:42,809 --> 00:36:45,690 But understand that they're lunatics, and they they 1125 00:36:45,690 --> 00:36:48,170 they won't they won't be held accountable for 1126 00:36:48,170 --> 00:36:49,789 for turning a gun on you. 1127 00:36:50,569 --> 00:36:53,130 Right. Right. We've we've we've witnessed this over 1128 00:36:53,130 --> 00:36:54,589 and over again. So it's like, 1129 00:36:55,364 --> 00:36:57,445 be frustrated, but be strategic as well. And 1130 00:36:57,445 --> 00:36:59,204 don't put yourself and don't don't become a 1131 00:36:59,204 --> 00:37:01,844 pawn of some op Yeah. That they're running 1132 00:37:01,844 --> 00:37:04,644 to to where they wanna get everybody that's 1133 00:37:04,644 --> 00:37:06,405 in there and paint you all with the 1134 00:37:06,405 --> 00:37:07,844 same brush. Like, you may be there. Just 1135 00:37:07,844 --> 00:37:09,284 say, hey. Listen. I wanna see what's going 1136 00:37:09,284 --> 00:37:10,565 on and make sure nobody I know gets 1137 00:37:10,565 --> 00:37:12,569 hurt. And next thing they know, they've pinged 1138 00:37:12,569 --> 00:37:14,489 all everybody's cell phone there, and they said 1139 00:37:14,489 --> 00:37:16,510 you're all you're all part of Antifa. 1140 00:37:17,130 --> 00:37:18,889 And I'm like, I'm part of Antifa. I 1141 00:37:18,889 --> 00:37:20,409 just I live down the street, and they're 1142 00:37:20,409 --> 00:37:22,329 like, you don't care. With that. I agree. 1143 00:37:22,329 --> 00:37:24,010 That's an excellent point. But is that them 1144 00:37:24,010 --> 00:37:25,049 being part of an op, or is that 1145 00:37:25,049 --> 00:37:27,535 them being is that the government op pretending 1146 00:37:27,535 --> 00:37:28,894 you're part of something? Now I wanna be 1147 00:37:28,894 --> 00:37:30,815 clear because I in case there's somebody new, 1148 00:37:30,815 --> 00:37:32,175 you and I both agree I mean, look, 1149 00:37:32,175 --> 00:37:32,675 Antifa, 1150 00:37:33,454 --> 00:37:35,295 Patriot Front, I mean, like, it is all 1151 00:37:35,295 --> 00:37:37,454 over the place, and they're very much being 1152 00:37:37,454 --> 00:37:39,375 manipulated. And there's a very clear example we 1153 00:37:39,375 --> 00:37:41,135 made about extremism that exist in all of 1154 00:37:41,135 --> 00:37:43,030 this. It's not like there's not some actual 1155 00:37:43,030 --> 00:37:44,630 issue with Antifa, but the way that they're 1156 00:37:44,630 --> 00:37:47,190 using it, as we've discussed, is it's not 1157 00:37:47,190 --> 00:37:48,949 about Antifa at all, quite frankly. You know? 1158 00:37:48,949 --> 00:37:51,589 And so what we're seeing is using this. 1159 00:37:51,589 --> 00:37:53,030 Like, so I would argue I agree with 1160 00:37:53,030 --> 00:37:54,805 your point. Don't allow yourself to be caught 1161 00:37:54,805 --> 00:37:56,965 up in some kind of entity that's out 1162 00:37:56,965 --> 00:37:59,045 there trying to use your genuine intention to 1163 00:37:59,045 --> 00:38:01,204 hold people accountable because that very much exists 1164 00:38:01,204 --> 00:38:03,765 on the left. That is transparently clear. But 1165 00:38:03,765 --> 00:38:05,605 at the same time, I argue if you're 1166 00:38:05,605 --> 00:38:06,965 willing to put yourself at risk, that is 1167 00:38:06,965 --> 00:38:08,480 an important way to frame that. That I 1168 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,559 do think it's it's the right thing to 1169 00:38:10,559 --> 00:38:12,239 do, to stand up and stand and to 1170 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,400 stand correctly. And I would even say there's 1171 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:15,920 a point you made about interference, but let's 1172 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,659 just say legally speaking, stand without doing that 1173 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:20,894 and hold them accountable. But Derek in the 1174 00:38:20,894 --> 00:38:22,255 past has made a good point. And I 1175 00:38:22,255 --> 00:38:23,295 don't know. I mean, they don't even have 1176 00:38:23,295 --> 00:38:24,894 the same opinion today, you know, because we've 1177 00:38:24,894 --> 00:38:26,414 all evolved in a lot of ways. But 1178 00:38:26,414 --> 00:38:28,574 that there is an importance to confronting something 1179 00:38:28,574 --> 00:38:30,494 like that, especially if we're in a position 1180 00:38:30,494 --> 00:38:32,275 where what they're doing is illegal. 1181 00:38:32,679 --> 00:38:35,179 Right? So this is no longer some upstanding 1182 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,800 member of the government authority of, you know, 1183 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,199 up indoor enforcing the law. They're out there 1184 00:38:40,199 --> 00:38:42,280 break breaking the law. They're the ones committing 1185 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,199 terrorism. And, I mean, not everybody, and it's 1186 00:38:44,199 --> 00:38:45,800 never a broad brush point. It's about the 1187 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:47,577 people that are doing that. And so I'm 1188 00:38:47,577 --> 00:38:49,353 not saying you should go out there and 1189 00:38:49,353 --> 00:38:51,130 engage with them because I think that's the 1190 00:38:51,130 --> 00:38:52,906 last thing we should be doing because they 1191 00:38:52,906 --> 00:38:54,682 use that to, you know, do whatever they 1192 00:38:54,682 --> 00:38:56,681 wanna do. But I'm just I don't wanna 1193 00:38:56,681 --> 00:38:58,457 dissuade people out there. I don't wanna create 1194 00:38:58,457 --> 00:39:00,670 the sentiment that people should be cowing to 1195 00:39:00,670 --> 00:39:02,910 what they're doing because of their responses. And 1196 00:39:02,910 --> 00:39:04,269 I I'm sure you probably agree with that. 1197 00:39:04,269 --> 00:39:05,630 Right? I mean, I'm Yeah. In what we 1198 00:39:05,630 --> 00:39:07,949 believe in. Yeah. I I want people to 1199 00:39:07,949 --> 00:39:10,929 also understand that these people are diabolical, 1200 00:39:11,309 --> 00:39:13,309 and they'll they'll they'll fight you any way 1201 00:39:13,309 --> 00:39:14,945 they can fight you. And one way that 1202 00:39:14,945 --> 00:39:17,045 they'll do that is legally through, 1203 00:39:18,224 --> 00:39:21,045 terms and designations. So as as an example, 1204 00:39:21,664 --> 00:39:22,164 you 1205 00:39:22,545 --> 00:39:23,765 may think that 1206 00:39:24,144 --> 00:39:26,704 somebody calls you a domestic terrorist. That's just 1207 00:39:26,704 --> 00:39:29,069 a a slanderous insult that somebody, you know, 1208 00:39:29,069 --> 00:39:30,449 online calls you that. 1209 00:39:30,750 --> 00:39:32,929 But if the if if law enforcement 1210 00:39:34,109 --> 00:39:35,170 decides to to 1211 00:39:36,109 --> 00:39:38,210 describe you as a domestic terrorist 1212 00:39:39,085 --> 00:39:41,005 In the aftermath of the Patriot Act, we're 1213 00:39:41,005 --> 00:39:42,925 now it's not just, it's not just some 1214 00:39:42,925 --> 00:39:45,485 term. It's not some throwaway line. It is 1215 00:39:45,485 --> 00:39:47,265 a legal definition. You are 1216 00:39:47,885 --> 00:39:50,364 a you are operating in the homeland, which 1217 00:39:50,364 --> 00:39:51,265 is a battlefield, 1218 00:39:51,599 --> 00:39:53,680 and you have now been designated by law 1219 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:55,380 enforcement as a domestic terrorist. 1220 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,160 So under the Patriot Act, you find yourself 1221 00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,640 without any rights and that that you you 1222 00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:01,539 all of a sudden 1223 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,019 are are in the same category 1224 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:05,300 as, 1225 00:40:06,144 --> 00:40:08,625 you know, you're you're as somebody who's planting 1226 00:40:08,625 --> 00:40:10,805 truck bombs, you know. And and so 1227 00:40:11,345 --> 00:40:13,285 we're now in a world where 1228 00:40:13,664 --> 00:40:15,925 you all you also have to be careful 1229 00:40:16,065 --> 00:40:17,605 that they don't try to 1230 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,599 legally designate you as something that you are 1231 00:40:21,599 --> 00:40:22,000 not, 1232 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:24,639 because if they do that, then it's not 1233 00:40:24,639 --> 00:40:26,900 just, it's not just, you know, 1234 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,460 an insult. It's it's a a designation 1235 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:30,739 that may have 1236 00:40:31,224 --> 00:40:33,144 may impact your freedom. You know, I agree 1237 00:40:33,144 --> 00:40:35,545 a 100. But, again, the point is don't 1238 00:40:35,545 --> 00:40:37,545 do something because they may be dishonest. Well, 1239 00:40:37,545 --> 00:40:39,385 they're gonna be dishonest regardless. But but trust 1240 00:40:39,385 --> 00:40:40,585 me, I agree with what you're saying. Like, 1241 00:40:40,585 --> 00:40:42,425 I get the sentiment's important. But I just 1242 00:40:42,505 --> 00:40:43,704 you know, it's clear that they're going to 1243 00:40:43,704 --> 00:40:45,929 be dishonest and misrepresent regardless. They call us 1244 00:40:45,929 --> 00:40:47,690 terrorists, Charlie, so it's pretty clear that that's, 1245 00:40:47,690 --> 00:40:48,969 you know, you could be out there just 1246 00:40:48,969 --> 00:40:50,409 standing on the sidewalk like you're saying and 1247 00:40:50,409 --> 00:40:51,929 get caught up in it because they decide 1248 00:40:51,929 --> 00:40:53,690 to do so. You know? So it becomes 1249 00:40:53,690 --> 00:40:55,369 very clear that it needs to be personal 1250 00:40:55,369 --> 00:40:57,369 decisions for what you believe is right. And 1251 00:40:57,369 --> 00:40:59,449 understand that there are gonna be consequences for 1252 00:40:59,449 --> 00:41:00,844 things you do that are wrong, and there 1253 00:41:00,844 --> 00:41:02,444 may be consequences for things that you don't 1254 00:41:02,444 --> 00:41:04,444 do that aren't wrong. You know? So factor 1255 00:41:04,444 --> 00:41:06,284 that in and and act accordingly. And don't 1256 00:41:06,284 --> 00:41:08,684 get baited into violence. Don't get don't get 1257 00:41:08,684 --> 00:41:10,525 sucked into that stuff because there are agent 1258 00:41:10,525 --> 00:41:12,364 provocateurs out there that will say, you know, 1259 00:41:12,364 --> 00:41:14,045 this way to the capital and whatnot. And 1260 00:41:14,045 --> 00:41:16,019 and sort of get you and take that 1261 00:41:16,099 --> 00:41:18,599 that maybe maybe authentic frustration 1262 00:41:19,140 --> 00:41:21,219 and channel that into some destructive ways. You 1263 00:41:21,219 --> 00:41:21,699 know, everyone 1264 00:41:22,179 --> 00:41:23,480 I'm I'll be, 1265 00:41:24,260 --> 00:41:26,280 a month from now, I'll be emceeing Anarkapulco, 1266 00:41:26,900 --> 00:41:28,199 the largest anarchist 1267 00:41:28,514 --> 00:41:31,315 conference in the world. And everyone says, oh, 1268 00:41:31,315 --> 00:41:33,875 you anarchists. You're just you're what you guys 1269 00:41:33,875 --> 00:41:37,255 do workshops on building and throwing Molotov cocktails 1270 00:41:37,554 --> 00:41:39,554 and tire burnings and things like that. It's 1271 00:41:39,554 --> 00:41:41,154 like, no. We're not doing any of that 1272 00:41:41,154 --> 00:41:42,534 stuff. They don't understand anything. 1273 00:41:42,890 --> 00:41:45,210 They don't understand what it means, but there's 1274 00:41:45,210 --> 00:41:46,250 this there's this, 1275 00:41:47,130 --> 00:41:47,869 there's this 1276 00:41:48,410 --> 00:41:50,570 vision in a lot of people's minds that 1277 00:41:50,570 --> 00:41:52,730 that you're that the only way to get 1278 00:41:52,730 --> 00:41:54,829 some real change is to get out there 1279 00:41:54,890 --> 00:41:56,430 in the streets with your hood 1280 00:41:57,434 --> 00:41:58,255 on and, 1281 00:41:59,195 --> 00:42:00,875 and fight with the police. And I'm telling 1282 00:42:00,875 --> 00:42:03,035 you, that's a trap. Absolutely. That's that's a 1283 00:42:03,035 --> 00:42:04,795 good way to get caught up in something 1284 00:42:04,795 --> 00:42:06,494 that's much bigger than you understand. 1285 00:42:06,875 --> 00:42:08,474 And what do you know? The leaders who 1286 00:42:08,474 --> 00:42:10,235 are leading you into battle are whisked away 1287 00:42:10,235 --> 00:42:11,880 out the back door, and they never see 1288 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:13,639 any any jail time, but you're sitting in 1289 00:42:13,639 --> 00:42:15,179 a cell somewhere. So don't 1290 00:42:15,639 --> 00:42:17,639 Sorry. Go ahead. Yeah. Just don't fall into 1291 00:42:17,639 --> 00:42:19,159 that. That's all I'm saying. Alright. I'm sorry. 1292 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,179 Strictly, Jason, careful. I mean, join the conversation. 1293 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:24,119 So the the Patriot front and Antifa as 1294 00:42:24,119 --> 00:42:25,835 we just discussed. Right? Look at what they're 1295 00:42:25,835 --> 00:42:27,514 being look at what they're like, we know 1296 00:42:27,514 --> 00:42:29,355 we we can prove an overlap. We keep 1297 00:42:29,355 --> 00:42:31,275 finding repeatedly that there's, like, an FBI agent 1298 00:42:31,275 --> 00:42:32,875 or somebody in the cover. Like, it continues 1299 00:42:32,875 --> 00:42:34,494 to happen. Right? And so at this point, 1300 00:42:34,554 --> 00:42:36,554 when you're talking about masked entities, like, why 1301 00:42:36,554 --> 00:42:39,059 would we as individuals fall into doing what 1302 00:42:39,059 --> 00:42:41,299 they're, like, literally dangling in front of you? 1303 00:42:41,299 --> 00:42:42,579 Go out there and be violent with masks, 1304 00:42:42,579 --> 00:42:44,420 and, you know, like, join these groups. It's 1305 00:42:44,420 --> 00:42:46,659 so, I think, very obviously meant to drive 1306 00:42:46,659 --> 00:42:48,579 as to exactly what you just described. We 1307 00:42:48,579 --> 00:42:50,655 are being played against ourselves, you know, and 1308 00:42:50,655 --> 00:42:52,675 that's just so important across this conversation. 1309 00:42:52,974 --> 00:42:54,195 And and the psychological 1310 00:42:54,655 --> 00:42:57,614 component of diffuse responsibility as well. Somebody who 1311 00:42:57,614 --> 00:42:59,695 really wants to burn down a building, but 1312 00:42:59,695 --> 00:43:01,409 probably doesn't have the guts to do it. 1313 00:43:01,489 --> 00:43:02,849 But if there's a 100 of you doing 1314 00:43:02,849 --> 00:43:04,449 it, I only did one one hundredth of 1315 00:43:04,449 --> 00:43:06,289 the actual damage, and it was really all 1316 00:43:06,289 --> 00:43:07,650 the other guys. And the way you can 1317 00:43:07,650 --> 00:43:10,530 rationalize that, normalize that sort of violence is 1318 00:43:10,530 --> 00:43:12,869 not something that the average person really comprehends. 1319 00:43:13,089 --> 00:43:14,690 But I I assure you that the people 1320 00:43:14,690 --> 00:43:17,030 in charge do. They know how you'll behave 1321 00:43:17,445 --> 00:43:19,125 if they if they add a couple different 1322 00:43:19,125 --> 00:43:21,925 variables in there. So so being careful to 1323 00:43:21,925 --> 00:43:23,684 not find yourself and I tell you this, 1324 00:43:23,684 --> 00:43:25,525 as somebody I lived through the LA riots, 1325 00:43:25,525 --> 00:43:27,364 the ninety two riots. I was in South 1326 00:43:27,364 --> 00:43:29,605 Central when it's like, one day, everything's fine, 1327 00:43:29,605 --> 00:43:32,460 the next day, everything's crazy. And it was 1328 00:43:32,460 --> 00:43:35,420 because you you got the point about halfway 1329 00:43:35,420 --> 00:43:37,099 through the first day of the LA riots 1330 00:43:37,099 --> 00:43:37,599 that 1331 00:43:38,380 --> 00:43:40,460 no cops can actually do anything to us 1332 00:43:40,460 --> 00:43:42,300 for anything that we do, so we can 1333 00:43:42,300 --> 00:43:44,139 do whatever we want, and then it just 1334 00:43:44,139 --> 00:43:46,219 kinda kicked off. So Yeah. So you have 1335 00:43:46,219 --> 00:43:47,199 to sort of also 1336 00:43:49,335 --> 00:43:51,434 make allowances for the psychology 1337 00:43:51,735 --> 00:43:55,035 of of crowds and how people get manipulated 1338 00:43:55,094 --> 00:43:56,775 and weaponized into things. And you need to 1339 00:43:56,775 --> 00:43:58,295 make sure that, you know, there's nothing more 1340 00:43:58,295 --> 00:44:01,175 dangerous than, stupid people in large groups. Right? 1341 00:44:01,175 --> 00:44:03,239 You need to get yourself out of situations 1342 00:44:03,380 --> 00:44:05,480 like that and understand what's happening, 1343 00:44:06,099 --> 00:44:07,380 so that you're not the last guy to 1344 00:44:07,380 --> 00:44:09,619 figure it out. Yeah. Exactly. And and I 1345 00:44:09,619 --> 00:44:10,980 would argue that the people that go in 1346 00:44:10,980 --> 00:44:12,260 and do that, like, the guy just goes, 1347 00:44:12,260 --> 00:44:13,340 like, shoot, I'm gonna go grab a TV, 1348 00:44:13,340 --> 00:44:14,739 you know, whatever. I'm gonna take advantage or 1349 00:44:14,739 --> 00:44:16,099 I'm gonna go bust a window because I 1350 00:44:16,099 --> 00:44:17,220 feel like it because I don't even care 1351 00:44:17,220 --> 00:44:18,514 what this whole thing is about. They're not 1352 00:44:18,514 --> 00:44:19,994 the ones that get held accountable. They're not 1353 00:44:19,994 --> 00:44:21,594 the ones that have failed. They go from 1354 00:44:21,594 --> 00:44:23,355 political leaders or the the person standing there 1355 00:44:23,355 --> 00:44:24,554 going, I want you to be accountable. And 1356 00:44:24,554 --> 00:44:26,074 it's like, you're a terrorist. You know? It's 1357 00:44:26,234 --> 00:44:26,894 it is 1358 00:44:27,195 --> 00:44:29,355 obscene how this continues to happen. Right? But 1359 00:44:29,355 --> 00:44:30,795 back to that point though about the clip, 1360 00:44:30,795 --> 00:44:32,474 you know, about the about the incident. You 1361 00:44:32,474 --> 00:44:34,340 know? Kristi Noem came out and called that 1362 00:44:34,340 --> 00:44:35,559 person a domestic terrorist 1363 00:44:35,860 --> 00:44:37,140 to make your point. You know? And it's 1364 00:44:37,140 --> 00:44:38,280 like, okay. 1365 00:44:38,820 --> 00:44:41,140 You could make an like, the only argument 1366 00:44:41,140 --> 00:44:42,780 in that like, let's just take this actual 1367 00:44:42,980 --> 00:44:44,019 the point in front of us. You've got 1368 00:44:44,019 --> 00:44:45,704 a woman in a car who's observing them. 1369 00:44:45,864 --> 00:44:47,945 Where's the argument for terrorism? Even if you 1370 00:44:47,945 --> 00:44:49,945 argue she directly went and just rammed the 1371 00:44:49,945 --> 00:44:51,085 guy, which didn't happen, 1372 00:44:51,385 --> 00:44:52,825 how would that be terrorism? That would be 1373 00:44:52,825 --> 00:44:55,065 a crime, certainly. But with the the the 1374 00:44:55,065 --> 00:44:57,325 fact that she rushes to call it terrorism 1375 00:44:57,545 --> 00:44:59,610 is the entire agenda. Right? This is about 1376 00:44:59,769 --> 00:45:02,170 framing anything against the government or any crime 1377 00:45:02,170 --> 00:45:03,849 of any kind or whatever they want, wherever 1378 00:45:03,849 --> 00:45:05,530 they want is terrorism because that opens the 1379 00:45:05,530 --> 00:45:08,010 door to, you know, nothing matters, national security, 1380 00:45:08,010 --> 00:45:09,530 whatever they wanna do. You know? And so 1381 00:45:09,530 --> 00:45:11,369 I found it really interesting, but I argue 1382 00:45:11,369 --> 00:45:13,155 it's because they're just trying to make a, 1383 00:45:13,315 --> 00:45:14,614 you know, flimsy connection 1384 00:45:14,914 --> 00:45:16,914 to, I guess, what? She's an observer. Therefore, 1385 00:45:16,914 --> 00:45:18,434 she must be lefty even though I know 1386 00:45:18,434 --> 00:45:19,795 people who are not left who are doing 1387 00:45:19,795 --> 00:45:21,954 that. It's the same thing as always. But 1388 00:45:21,954 --> 00:45:23,635 then you have examples saying that that means 1389 00:45:23,635 --> 00:45:25,795 lefty, that means Antifa, therefore, terrorism. And it's 1390 00:45:25,795 --> 00:45:27,539 like, that none of these things are gonna 1391 00:45:27,539 --> 00:45:28,579 hold up in court, but that's not what 1392 00:45:28,579 --> 00:45:30,260 it's really about. You know? So I on 1393 00:45:30,260 --> 00:45:31,820 your that point, I think, is important. But 1394 00:45:31,820 --> 00:45:33,219 I what what are your thoughts on that? 1395 00:45:33,219 --> 00:45:34,420 Unless we don't you don't wanna get into 1396 00:45:34,420 --> 00:45:36,019 it, but what do you think about the 1397 00:45:36,019 --> 00:45:37,219 way that went down? Do you feel that 1398 00:45:37,219 --> 00:45:38,739 they were justified in killing that woman? You 1399 00:45:38,739 --> 00:45:39,780 know? I'd say I think it's a a 1400 00:45:39,780 --> 00:45:41,619 really important pivotal moment for this country right 1401 00:45:41,619 --> 00:45:43,675 now. I have problems when the 1402 00:45:44,295 --> 00:45:46,934 Department of Homeland Security chief is calling people 1403 00:45:46,934 --> 00:45:49,015 domestic terrorists, knowing that that means that you 1404 00:45:49,015 --> 00:45:50,855 can wind up in Guantanamo Bay in five 1405 00:45:50,855 --> 00:45:52,775 hours Yeah. You know, with a bag over 1406 00:45:52,775 --> 00:45:53,434 your head. 1407 00:45:53,894 --> 00:45:56,054 And so I I don't like any of 1408 00:45:56,054 --> 00:45:58,380 this. It's all gross and disgusting. 1409 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:00,780 I don't know. See, the but 1410 00:46:01,159 --> 00:46:02,519 but if you think about also if you 1411 00:46:02,519 --> 00:46:04,280 kinda just take a a step back on 1412 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:05,340 the sort of the psychology 1413 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:06,380 of this, 1414 00:46:07,559 --> 00:46:08,860 think about the optics. 1415 00:46:09,444 --> 00:46:11,944 That you if you're gonna do something diabolical, 1416 00:46:12,085 --> 00:46:14,264 like have a Department of Homeland Security, 1417 00:46:14,964 --> 00:46:16,964 why not have Barbie run it? You know, 1418 00:46:16,964 --> 00:46:19,284 with the hair extensions and the makeup and 1419 00:46:19,284 --> 00:46:21,464 and and all of this, you know, because 1420 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:23,200 who are you really selling it to? You're 1421 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:24,800 selling it to Trump's base. Right? So she's 1422 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:26,400 gotta look like she's straight out of Fox 1423 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:27,860 News. Right. You know? 1424 00:46:28,720 --> 00:46:30,320 And and and and so there's a little 1425 00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,019 I think there's a little bit more 1426 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,280 thought that goes into this from in terms 1427 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:36,660 of who the 1428 00:46:37,085 --> 00:46:39,424 who the target demographic is for this information. 1429 00:46:40,125 --> 00:46:42,284 This is this is his base. Right? So 1430 00:46:42,284 --> 00:46:44,464 you have Kristi Noem deliver it. Right? Because 1431 00:46:45,085 --> 00:46:47,404 you already kinda like her. Right? If you're 1432 00:46:47,404 --> 00:46:50,125 MAGA guys, she's kinda hot and she's yeah. 1433 00:46:50,125 --> 00:46:52,309 I mean, yeah. She's talking about the most 1434 00:46:52,930 --> 00:46:54,769 authoritarian, awful stuff ever, but, hey. Look at 1435 00:46:54,769 --> 00:46:56,050 her. You know what I mean? And I 1436 00:46:56,050 --> 00:46:57,670 see that, and I go, that's not accidental. 1437 00:46:57,730 --> 00:46:59,510 The Trump comes out of television. 1438 00:46:59,809 --> 00:47:01,890 He knows what he's doing. Yeah. You know? 1439 00:47:01,890 --> 00:47:03,329 And I think, god, what a gross 1440 00:47:05,114 --> 00:47:07,234 how gross is that that you you you 1441 00:47:07,234 --> 00:47:08,974 you bring in a Barbie 1442 00:47:09,434 --> 00:47:11,215 doll to sell the authoritarian 1443 00:47:11,675 --> 00:47:12,175 overreach? 1444 00:47:12,474 --> 00:47:14,635 But It's it's very do it. I guess 1445 00:47:14,635 --> 00:47:16,394 maybe more brave new world. But, yeah, it 1446 00:47:16,394 --> 00:47:16,894 definitely 1447 00:47:17,195 --> 00:47:19,530 is manipulative for sure. But, yeah, it's you 1448 00:47:19,530 --> 00:47:20,809 know, what's what's crazy to me and let 1449 00:47:20,809 --> 00:47:22,090 let me ask you this since I seem 1450 00:47:22,090 --> 00:47:23,610 to I mean, I think this is still 1451 00:47:23,610 --> 00:47:25,849 wildly relevant every single day that it continues 1452 00:47:25,849 --> 00:47:27,449 to grow. My point was I seem to 1453 00:47:27,449 --> 00:47:29,050 ask this constantly when we're on the show 1454 00:47:29,050 --> 00:47:30,329 or every time, I mean, when we do 1455 00:47:30,329 --> 00:47:32,204 the interviews. But it seems to be evolving. 1456 00:47:32,204 --> 00:47:33,565 Right? So do you think or where do 1457 00:47:33,565 --> 00:47:35,505 you think the let's just say the Republican 1458 00:47:35,724 --> 00:47:37,484 or let's just say the conservative as a 1459 00:47:37,484 --> 00:47:39,964 whole conservative side. Where do you think they're 1460 00:47:39,964 --> 00:47:41,644 at right now with with support of the 1461 00:47:41,644 --> 00:47:43,324 Trump side, with the team, with the two 1462 00:47:43,324 --> 00:47:45,159 party illusion? I think it's I mean, we 1463 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:46,599 because we keep talking about this. Right? And 1464 00:47:46,599 --> 00:47:48,440 and, originally, it was sort of like, well, 1465 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:49,800 I feel like they're not happy. But it's 1466 00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:51,000 hard to tell. Right? Or even the two 1467 00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:53,079 party illusion. I think it's never been more 1468 00:47:53,079 --> 00:47:55,079 clear. I think it's so shockingly obvious that 1469 00:47:55,079 --> 00:47:57,644 conservatives right now are, I'm not saying fleeing 1470 00:47:57,704 --> 00:47:59,464 from the team or the party, but, like, 1471 00:47:59,464 --> 00:48:01,065 we're being screwed over by Trump. Or this 1472 00:48:01,065 --> 00:48:02,264 team's not you know? What do you think 1473 00:48:02,264 --> 00:48:03,464 about that? Where where do you think that 1474 00:48:03,464 --> 00:48:04,684 percentage is right now? 1475 00:48:05,704 --> 00:48:07,784 Well, I I don't know how you can 1476 00:48:07,784 --> 00:48:10,319 watch what Trump has been doing for the 1477 00:48:10,319 --> 00:48:12,420 last year and not feel betrayed 1478 00:48:13,279 --> 00:48:14,759 for if you were a Republican. I think 1479 00:48:14,759 --> 00:48:16,819 it depending on what your level of expectations 1480 00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:18,639 were. Right? I I have my level of 1481 00:48:18,639 --> 00:48:21,059 expectations very low, so I'm not disappointed. 1482 00:48:21,359 --> 00:48:22,719 He he I knew he was going to 1483 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,764 be a a a tool of the Zionist, 1484 00:48:26,304 --> 00:48:28,224 faction and and big tech, and, of course, 1485 00:48:28,224 --> 00:48:29,904 he has been. And and that's just a 1486 00:48:29,904 --> 00:48:31,664 matter of degree as to how that has 1487 00:48:31,664 --> 00:48:32,885 all played out. But 1488 00:48:33,424 --> 00:48:35,025 I expected that, and that's what I got. 1489 00:48:35,025 --> 00:48:37,284 But I think for those people who really 1490 00:48:37,505 --> 00:48:38,005 honestly 1491 00:48:38,304 --> 00:48:38,804 thought 1492 00:48:39,380 --> 00:48:42,180 that Bongino was gonna get in there and 1493 00:48:42,180 --> 00:48:42,680 that 1494 00:48:43,140 --> 00:48:44,980 the arrests were gonna be and they were 1495 00:48:44,980 --> 00:48:47,300 just gonna be lining up buses and it 1496 00:48:47,300 --> 00:48:48,980 was gonna be purp box and all that, 1497 00:48:48,980 --> 00:48:50,599 and they really bought it. 1498 00:48:51,619 --> 00:48:54,119 I think for those people, they're deeply disappointed. 1499 00:48:55,065 --> 00:48:57,164 I think it's cool. I I could have 1500 00:48:57,224 --> 00:48:59,144 I could have saved them. Well, I probably 1501 00:48:59,144 --> 00:49:00,664 couldn't have. They wouldn't have they wouldn't have 1502 00:49:00,664 --> 00:49:02,184 listened. But I'm sure they heard us. They 1503 00:49:02,184 --> 00:49:04,025 didn't wanna Theoretically, you could have saved them 1504 00:49:04,025 --> 00:49:05,545 by telling them this is gonna happen. But, 1505 00:49:05,545 --> 00:49:07,464 I mean, you you maybe you just you 1506 00:49:07,464 --> 00:49:07,964 know, 1507 00:49:08,599 --> 00:49:10,119 we all go through that. You know, we 1508 00:49:10,119 --> 00:49:12,119 all kinda say, oh, this time will be 1509 00:49:12,119 --> 00:49:13,880 different. You know, it happens. And then after 1510 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,119 it's some people they they figured out pretty 1511 00:49:16,119 --> 00:49:18,360 early on. They go, I'm not participating in 1512 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:19,880 this. I'm never gonna get my hopes up 1513 00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:22,039 or pin my dreams on some politician to 1514 00:49:22,039 --> 00:49:23,655 come in here and wave a magic wand 1515 00:49:23,655 --> 00:49:25,175 and fix it all. It's just not gonna 1516 00:49:25,175 --> 00:49:25,675 happen. 1517 00:49:26,055 --> 00:49:28,535 But, you know, everybody learns at their own 1518 00:49:28,535 --> 00:49:30,875 pace. So I'm assuming that there's a segment 1519 00:49:30,934 --> 00:49:32,074 right now that's going 1520 00:49:33,015 --> 00:49:33,675 I mean, 1521 00:49:33,974 --> 00:49:35,909 I didn't sign up for any of this. 1522 00:49:35,989 --> 00:49:37,750 Right. The the irony is that, in fact, 1523 00:49:37,750 --> 00:49:39,510 they did. They just didn't realize that they 1524 00:49:39,510 --> 00:49:40,329 did. But 1525 00:49:41,030 --> 00:49:43,429 but their their and I've seen a lot 1526 00:49:43,429 --> 00:49:45,989 of this actually online with people going, I 1527 00:49:45,989 --> 00:49:47,750 didn't ask for this. I voted for him, 1528 00:49:47,750 --> 00:49:49,349 but I didn't vote for this. Big people 1529 00:49:49,349 --> 00:49:52,125 too. Yeah. Big people. And and and once 1530 00:49:52,125 --> 00:49:53,885 you get past the you you actually did 1531 00:49:53,885 --> 00:49:56,045 kind of vote for it, then it's then 1532 00:49:56,045 --> 00:49:56,864 it's well 1533 00:49:57,405 --> 00:49:59,644 well, now what are you gonna do? Mhmm. 1534 00:49:59,644 --> 00:50:01,005 Are you now you have a you have 1535 00:50:01,005 --> 00:50:02,864 a decision to make. Are you gonna rationalize 1536 00:50:03,005 --> 00:50:04,760 his behavior and say, well, you know, it 1537 00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:06,519 would have been much worse if Kamala was 1538 00:50:06,519 --> 00:50:08,039 there because you could do that. You could 1539 00:50:08,039 --> 00:50:10,119 try that, and and you could probably convince 1540 00:50:10,119 --> 00:50:12,039 yourself for a little while. Or you're gonna 1541 00:50:12,039 --> 00:50:12,699 get honest 1542 00:50:13,079 --> 00:50:14,619 and say that this guy is 1543 00:50:15,079 --> 00:50:16,219 this guy is a 1544 00:50:16,994 --> 00:50:19,554 tool of Israel. It is quite obvious all 1545 00:50:19,554 --> 00:50:20,994 the things he said that he was gonna 1546 00:50:20,994 --> 00:50:23,335 do, the no wars and no foreign entanglements 1547 00:50:23,474 --> 00:50:25,954 and make America great. He's Lower cost. Not 1548 00:50:25,954 --> 00:50:27,474 only has he not done it, not only 1549 00:50:27,474 --> 00:50:28,914 has he not gotten around to it, he's 1550 00:50:28,914 --> 00:50:31,329 done the exact opposite of it. It's not 1551 00:50:31,489 --> 00:50:32,849 it it'd be one thing if it was 1552 00:50:32,849 --> 00:50:34,609 just like, oh, he got caught up in 1553 00:50:34,609 --> 00:50:36,369 the muck and and and he can't get 1554 00:50:36,369 --> 00:50:38,210 any traction to get anything done. No. No. 1555 00:50:38,210 --> 00:50:39,750 No. He's getting plenty done. 1556 00:50:40,050 --> 00:50:41,969 It's the exact opposite stuff that you ever 1557 00:50:41,969 --> 00:50:44,630 wanted. And everything that is not a priority 1558 00:50:44,769 --> 00:50:45,349 to us 1559 00:50:45,945 --> 00:50:46,684 is magically 1560 00:50:47,465 --> 00:50:49,704 a huge priority to him. So it's on 1561 00:50:49,704 --> 00:50:51,465 top of that, it's very frustrating. You just 1562 00:50:51,465 --> 00:50:53,465 go, you could wave your magic wand and 1563 00:50:53,465 --> 00:50:54,985 take care of all this stuff that the 1564 00:50:54,985 --> 00:50:57,385 president actually can do, and yet you're not 1565 00:50:57,385 --> 00:50:59,769 doing it. And here you are focusing on 1566 00:50:59,769 --> 00:51:02,349 building a new ballroom or or or strengthening 1567 00:51:02,650 --> 00:51:04,730 our ties or bringing in people that can 1568 00:51:04,730 --> 00:51:06,730 get to the bottom of the antisemitism on 1569 00:51:06,730 --> 00:51:09,289 college campuses. It's like, it's like we're just 1570 00:51:09,289 --> 00:51:11,690 focusing on all of the nonsense at the 1571 00:51:11,690 --> 00:51:13,994 expense of some really important things. And so 1572 00:51:14,075 --> 00:51:15,914 if it's your first rodeo, if it's your 1573 00:51:15,914 --> 00:51:17,835 first time you really kinda bought into it 1574 00:51:18,155 --> 00:51:20,474 Mhmm. It's gotta be horrifying to watch this 1575 00:51:20,474 --> 00:51:22,235 play out. And I but I'm kinda glad 1576 00:51:22,235 --> 00:51:23,595 about that. That's kinda the idea of this 1577 00:51:23,595 --> 00:51:25,835 whole dying, whatever, empire system. You know, it's 1578 00:51:25,835 --> 00:51:29,619 like that's it's continually more clumsy. Their actions 1579 00:51:29,619 --> 00:51:31,699 continue to fall apart sooner. You know? And, 1580 00:51:31,699 --> 00:51:33,539 I mean, every time like, even just with 1581 00:51:33,539 --> 00:51:34,780 this with the way that I mean, any 1582 00:51:34,900 --> 00:51:36,500 you pick the narrative on the table right 1583 00:51:36,500 --> 00:51:38,340 now. It's wild how they'll come out with 1584 00:51:38,340 --> 00:51:40,180 something, Venezuela, we can get into in the 1585 00:51:40,180 --> 00:51:42,964 last ten minutes here, about it's just wholesale 1586 00:51:43,105 --> 00:51:45,664 deception and lies about everything going on. And 1587 00:51:45,664 --> 00:51:47,664 I would argue that you could lie better 1588 00:51:47,664 --> 00:51:49,585 than that. Like, you could you could even 1589 00:51:49,585 --> 00:51:51,904 manufacture, but yet they I mean, I tend 1590 00:51:51,904 --> 00:51:53,764 to think it's largely just incompetence 1591 00:51:54,065 --> 00:51:56,304 or something else driving the bus. You know? 1592 00:51:56,304 --> 00:51:58,440 But I just the I I think what 1593 00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:00,300 you just described is obvious, 1594 00:52:00,599 --> 00:52:02,440 and I think that is self evident to 1595 00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:04,039 pretty much anyone that looks. And so you 1596 00:52:04,039 --> 00:52:05,420 end up in a position where 1597 00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:08,039 you have to ask yourself, do we feel 1598 00:52:08,039 --> 00:52:10,440 there's more honest people in the conversation versus 1599 00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:11,414 people that just 1600 00:52:11,735 --> 00:52:13,735 lie or or ignore for their own interest? 1601 00:52:13,735 --> 00:52:15,094 And I'd like to believe that there's more 1602 00:52:15,094 --> 00:52:17,175 honest people, and I think that's proven by 1603 00:52:17,175 --> 00:52:19,574 the fact that they always project what they 1604 00:52:19,574 --> 00:52:22,554 want that they honesty, you know, liberty, democracy. 1605 00:52:22,695 --> 00:52:24,135 Why would they keep doing that if most 1606 00:52:24,135 --> 00:52:25,494 of us didn't want that? You know? So 1607 00:52:25,494 --> 00:52:27,130 I think it's clear that it's so my 1608 00:52:27,130 --> 00:52:28,489 point saying that is that if that's the 1609 00:52:28,489 --> 00:52:30,170 case, and I think that is, that means 1610 00:52:30,170 --> 00:52:32,010 people are going like you're saying. Because they 1611 00:52:32,010 --> 00:52:33,369 are honest, and they wanted this to be 1612 00:52:33,369 --> 00:52:34,969 the case. But now they're going, holy crap. 1613 00:52:34,969 --> 00:52:36,409 This is crazy. Like, this is not what 1614 00:52:36,409 --> 00:52:38,570 I thought. What an important moment for this 1615 00:52:38,570 --> 00:52:40,454 country. You know? People tend to think this 1616 00:52:40,454 --> 00:52:41,974 is sort of, you know, maybe on the 1617 00:52:41,974 --> 00:52:43,255 one side or the other, that it's a 1618 00:52:43,255 --> 00:52:44,775 bad thing or that it's just you know? 1619 00:52:44,775 --> 00:52:46,214 I think this is the sign of actual 1620 00:52:46,214 --> 00:52:48,375 change happening, and I think that's why we're 1621 00:52:48,375 --> 00:52:51,174 watching this chaotic thing happen because power structures 1622 00:52:51,174 --> 00:52:52,775 are clearly not happy with the way it 1623 00:52:52,775 --> 00:52:54,710 were. We're like, I don't believe you anymore. 1624 00:52:55,170 --> 00:52:56,449 That's that's scary for them. You know, eat 1625 00:52:56,449 --> 00:52:57,730 the rich and all the stuff they've talked 1626 00:52:57,730 --> 00:52:59,409 about. They think about these things. They think 1627 00:52:59,409 --> 00:53:01,730 about the, you know, growing concern that we 1628 00:53:01,730 --> 00:53:03,409 may just decide to not listen to them 1629 00:53:03,409 --> 00:53:05,489 anymore and what that means to their security. 1630 00:53:05,489 --> 00:53:06,769 You know? And I'm not in any way 1631 00:53:06,769 --> 00:53:08,769 suggesting violence or threatening anything. It's more just 1632 00:53:08,769 --> 00:53:11,255 about their concern for what happens when things 1633 00:53:11,255 --> 00:53:13,014 change dramatically like that and what they've been 1634 00:53:13,014 --> 00:53:14,534 doing our entire lives. But I just think 1635 00:53:14,534 --> 00:53:16,295 that's really important to think about. And I'm 1636 00:53:16,295 --> 00:53:17,494 sure we'll bring it up next time. And, 1637 00:53:17,494 --> 00:53:18,934 you know, it's where where do you think 1638 00:53:18,934 --> 00:53:20,614 that look. Let's finish with Venezuela and where 1639 00:53:20,614 --> 00:53:21,894 that goes because I think that's an important 1640 00:53:21,894 --> 00:53:23,414 topic. But just on that last segment there, 1641 00:53:23,414 --> 00:53:25,319 you know, where do you think this logically 1642 00:53:25,319 --> 00:53:27,480 goes? If this continues to go the way 1643 00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:29,079 that we think that it is and people 1644 00:53:29,079 --> 00:53:30,920 continue to go, you know, I guess, save 1645 00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:32,440 from them just, like, releasing all the Epstein 1646 00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:34,199 files and doing suddenly everything they promised, which 1647 00:53:34,199 --> 00:53:35,799 I highly doubt, where do you think this 1648 00:53:35,799 --> 00:53:37,724 goes with people continuing to call it out, 1649 00:53:37,724 --> 00:53:39,405 you know, with the next election? You know, 1650 00:53:39,405 --> 00:53:40,525 just where do you think where do you 1651 00:53:40,525 --> 00:53:42,845 think it goes? Well, it it kinda the 1652 00:53:42,845 --> 00:53:43,825 government narratives 1653 00:53:44,204 --> 00:53:45,345 remind me of these 1654 00:53:45,724 --> 00:53:48,704 of a well done Pixar movie. There's two 1655 00:53:48,845 --> 00:53:50,925 story lines going. There's one for the parents, 1656 00:53:50,925 --> 00:53:52,765 and there's one for the kids. There's jokes 1657 00:53:52,765 --> 00:53:54,480 that the parents get the punch lines and 1658 00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:55,840 the kids are laughing too, but it's for 1659 00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:59,199 something different. And for the vast majority of 1660 00:53:59,199 --> 00:54:01,539 people, the kids, the people who are uninitiated 1661 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:03,920 don't understand how to listen to or watch 1662 00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:06,179 the media and get what's really going on, 1663 00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:08,559 they're being served one version of reality that 1664 00:54:08,559 --> 00:54:11,335 is very entertaining and it's different. For the 1665 00:54:11,335 --> 00:54:12,875 adults, they're who are watching 1666 00:54:13,335 --> 00:54:15,094 it, they're kind of snickering at something else. 1667 00:54:15,094 --> 00:54:18,214 They're they're they're understanding that that there's there's 1668 00:54:18,214 --> 00:54:20,474 more going on. The Venezuela thing is 1669 00:54:20,934 --> 00:54:22,614 probably no different. You know, they'll they'll be 1670 00:54:22,614 --> 00:54:25,000 an established narrative that will be sold to 1671 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:26,299 the people. Venezuela 1672 00:54:26,679 --> 00:54:27,659 was running drugs. 1673 00:54:28,119 --> 00:54:30,280 They're an evil Imadero is an evil, 1674 00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,719 socialist dictator who destroyed his people. You know? 1675 00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:34,859 And you can find 1676 00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:35,980 examples 1677 00:54:36,914 --> 00:54:38,755 that back all that stuff. You know, they'll 1678 00:54:38,755 --> 00:54:40,515 they'll give you a bunch of reasons and 1679 00:54:40,515 --> 00:54:41,974 and, of course, you can find 1680 00:54:42,355 --> 00:54:43,954 examples of them doing this. Does it mean 1681 00:54:43,954 --> 00:54:46,295 that they're Yeah. The biggest drug, 1682 00:54:46,835 --> 00:54:48,835 transporting hub in the world? No. Does it 1683 00:54:48,835 --> 00:54:50,755 mean that Maduro is the worst dictator in 1684 00:54:50,755 --> 00:54:52,380 the history? No. I mean, but you can 1685 00:54:52,380 --> 00:54:55,260 find examples to say, sue, we're we're above 1686 00:54:55,260 --> 00:54:57,039 reproach and this guy's gotta go. 1687 00:54:57,579 --> 00:54:59,659 And so that will be sold to the 1688 00:54:59,659 --> 00:55:01,739 general public for, you know, for the obvious 1689 00:55:01,739 --> 00:55:03,679 reasons. He he was bad to his people. 1690 00:55:03,844 --> 00:55:05,764 And then and then maybe some people will 1691 00:55:05,764 --> 00:55:06,964 break out of that a little bit and 1692 00:55:06,964 --> 00:55:08,644 say, but, you know, he also has oil, 1693 00:55:08,644 --> 00:55:10,085 and we can steal the oil, and we 1694 00:55:10,085 --> 00:55:11,444 get the oil. And then Trump comes out 1695 00:55:11,444 --> 00:55:13,045 and says, we've taken the oil, we're taking 1696 00:55:13,045 --> 00:55:15,444 these cargo ships, and you go, good lord. 1697 00:55:15,444 --> 00:55:17,045 We're, like, turned into pirates here, and there's 1698 00:55:17,045 --> 00:55:18,699 that whole narrative going on. And you go, 1699 00:55:18,699 --> 00:55:20,380 well, that must be what it's about. Must 1700 00:55:20,380 --> 00:55:21,920 be about oil. Right? And so 1701 00:55:22,380 --> 00:55:25,119 they'll allow you to, I suppose, the the 1702 00:55:25,420 --> 00:55:26,000 the average 1703 00:55:26,619 --> 00:55:28,719 news viewer, they'll allow you to, 1704 00:55:29,420 --> 00:55:30,000 you know, 1705 00:55:30,824 --> 00:55:31,945 hear that it's about, 1706 00:55:33,144 --> 00:55:34,204 stopping socialism, 1707 00:55:34,585 --> 00:55:37,545 but, also allow you to probably assume that 1708 00:55:37,545 --> 00:55:39,324 it's also about oil. Mhmm. 1709 00:55:39,864 --> 00:55:41,304 But Like you said earlier, kind of setting 1710 00:55:41,304 --> 00:55:42,984 that, like, allowance or, like, without knowing it, 1711 00:55:42,984 --> 00:55:45,140 sort of normalizing that illegal activity. You're gonna 1712 00:55:45,300 --> 00:55:46,900 yeah. It's about oil. But, you know, hey. 1713 00:55:46,900 --> 00:55:49,300 Listen. We steal oil from now. It's Trump, 1714 00:55:49,300 --> 00:55:50,900 and, you know, it's it's we're not we're 1715 00:55:50,900 --> 00:55:53,140 not doing anything bad. It's just oil. Right? 1716 00:55:53,140 --> 00:55:55,079 But but what they won't tell you 1717 00:55:55,460 --> 00:55:57,539 is that, you know, the the follow-up story 1718 00:55:57,539 --> 00:55:59,320 to the oil component is that 1719 00:56:00,065 --> 00:56:01,905 they're now not gonna be selling oil to 1720 00:56:01,905 --> 00:56:04,545 China Mhmm. And they will be selling oil 1721 00:56:04,545 --> 00:56:05,125 to Israel. 1722 00:56:05,744 --> 00:56:08,144 But we won't get into that level of 1723 00:56:08,144 --> 00:56:10,724 detail. Right? It'll just kinda stop at, like, 1724 00:56:11,425 --> 00:56:14,005 we're we're going to maybe go install 1725 00:56:14,545 --> 00:56:15,285 Paul Singer's 1726 00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:17,639 Sitgo is come back. I mean, maybe maybe 1727 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:20,460 we're we're maybe gonna, you know, allow our 1728 00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:23,179 Standard Oil interest to 1729 00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:26,199 take over Venezuelan oil and and run that. 1730 00:56:26,199 --> 00:56:28,039 I'll tell you where my mind actually goes 1731 00:56:28,039 --> 00:56:29,019 with all of this. 1732 00:56:29,324 --> 00:56:32,545 That is that is probably more alarming than 1733 00:56:32,844 --> 00:56:34,125 than any of it. And I do think 1734 00:56:34,125 --> 00:56:34,784 it's about 1735 00:56:35,164 --> 00:56:37,085 on some not not the entire story, but 1736 00:56:37,085 --> 00:56:39,664 on some level, sure, oil. Yeah. Oh, definitely. 1737 00:56:39,724 --> 00:56:40,864 I think it's about 1738 00:56:41,324 --> 00:56:42,224 shoring up 1739 00:56:42,570 --> 00:56:44,590 supply chains in anticipation 1740 00:56:45,849 --> 00:56:48,329 of something bigger. Yeah. Because if I were 1741 00:56:48,329 --> 00:56:48,829 to 1742 00:56:49,610 --> 00:56:52,090 if I were to be somebody planning, let's 1743 00:56:52,090 --> 00:56:53,390 say, World War three 1744 00:56:53,690 --> 00:56:55,769 and let's say in The Middle East, focal 1745 00:56:55,769 --> 00:56:57,210 point in The Middle East, but maybe not 1746 00:56:57,210 --> 00:56:59,364 limited to there, And I was America, 1747 00:57:00,464 --> 00:57:02,545 who is an who's a net energy exporter 1748 00:57:02,545 --> 00:57:03,905 to begin with, and I we could we 1749 00:57:03,905 --> 00:57:04,724 could be energy 1750 00:57:05,105 --> 00:57:05,605 independent, 1751 00:57:06,065 --> 00:57:07,905 but we choose not to be. Right. But 1752 00:57:07,905 --> 00:57:09,585 if I was America, I would say I 1753 00:57:09,585 --> 00:57:12,804 would wanna have a couple different options for 1754 00:57:13,344 --> 00:57:13,844 oil 1755 00:57:14,300 --> 00:57:17,039 that that weren't dependent on Suez Canal, 1756 00:57:18,059 --> 00:57:19,199 Strait Of Hormuz 1757 00:57:19,820 --> 00:57:22,219 or going around, you know, the the bottom 1758 00:57:22,219 --> 00:57:24,559 of Africa. And that would be Nigeria, 1759 00:57:25,019 --> 00:57:27,485 which is just a straight shot across 1760 00:57:27,785 --> 00:57:29,485 The Atlantic into Houston, 1761 00:57:29,785 --> 00:57:32,025 and Venezuela, which is just a straight shot 1762 00:57:32,025 --> 00:57:34,664 north into Houston as well. And if I 1763 00:57:34,664 --> 00:57:36,744 had control of both of those, then I 1764 00:57:36,744 --> 00:57:39,465 would feel pretty good about not needing Middle 1765 00:57:39,465 --> 00:57:41,644 East oil for a decade or so. 1766 00:57:42,010 --> 00:57:43,450 And I'm I'm not saying that this is 1767 00:57:43,450 --> 00:57:45,550 happening. I'm just trying to think, like, strategically 1768 00:57:45,690 --> 00:57:47,369 or maybe a little bit outside of the 1769 00:57:47,369 --> 00:57:49,930 box. Like, what could this actually mean? It 1770 00:57:49,930 --> 00:57:52,489 could mean it could be something as as 1771 00:57:52,489 --> 00:57:55,369 as sort of strategic as just getting these 1772 00:57:55,369 --> 00:57:56,269 supply chains 1773 00:57:57,144 --> 00:57:59,385 hammered out. Obviously, you get China thrown out 1774 00:57:59,385 --> 00:58:00,045 and you 1775 00:58:00,425 --> 00:58:03,224 normalize relations with Israel. That's what his masters 1776 00:58:03,224 --> 00:58:05,244 want. But what does America want? Well, America 1777 00:58:05,305 --> 00:58:08,265 could could shore up these supply lines at 1778 00:58:08,265 --> 00:58:09,644 least in terms of oil. 1779 00:58:11,329 --> 00:58:13,030 Still be a massive catastrophe 1780 00:58:14,210 --> 00:58:15,429 based on the supply 1781 00:58:15,730 --> 00:58:17,570 chain needs that we have in China. I'm 1782 00:58:17,570 --> 00:58:19,090 not trying to say that this solves any 1783 00:58:19,090 --> 00:58:21,329 of all of America's problems, but I'm trying 1784 00:58:21,329 --> 00:58:23,170 to think, like, how they would look at 1785 00:58:23,170 --> 00:58:24,550 this and and why 1786 00:58:24,929 --> 00:58:25,670 why now 1787 00:58:26,424 --> 00:58:28,744 why now and not, you know, five years 1788 00:58:28,744 --> 00:58:30,984 ago with Venezuela? Why now? What is it 1789 00:58:30,984 --> 00:58:33,224 going on that that is is requiring this? 1790 00:58:33,224 --> 00:58:34,824 And so when I think about it, I 1791 00:58:34,824 --> 00:58:36,844 I my mind goes to 1792 00:58:37,784 --> 00:58:39,804 to something having to do with a future 1793 00:58:39,864 --> 00:58:41,840 event that would 1794 00:58:42,220 --> 00:58:42,720 make 1795 00:58:43,099 --> 00:58:45,500 it more difficult for them to get the 1796 00:58:45,500 --> 00:58:47,579 oil that they need in a timely manner. 1797 00:58:47,579 --> 00:58:49,900 Yeah. Well, those are very valid points. All 1798 00:58:49,900 --> 00:58:51,579 of that's exactly, you know, whether it's, you 1799 00:58:51,579 --> 00:58:53,660 know, including other actions they've taken with Yemen 1800 00:58:53,660 --> 00:58:55,275 and the Bab El Mandeb Strait or, 1801 00:58:55,737 --> 00:58:57,817 Oman or or Somalia. You know, it's these 1802 00:58:57,817 --> 00:58:59,666 are all exactly that conversation. It's all different 1803 00:58:59,666 --> 00:59:01,747 parts of the same at least at least 1804 00:59:01,747 --> 00:59:03,596 one part of those agendas were about that, 1805 00:59:03,596 --> 00:59:05,445 and I think that's very clear. But what's 1806 00:59:05,445 --> 00:59:07,295 interesting is with Israel involved in all of 1807 00:59:07,295 --> 00:59:09,099 this, you know, it's I mean, there there's 1808 00:59:09,099 --> 00:59:10,639 very clear overlaps to 1809 00:59:11,019 --> 00:59:13,440 the larger agenda in regard to Venezuela 1810 00:59:13,739 --> 00:59:15,140 and these different you know, you you painted 1811 00:59:15,140 --> 00:59:16,880 a good picture there for the desire 1812 00:59:17,500 --> 00:59:19,900 to prepare for what they've always been planning. 1813 00:59:19,900 --> 00:59:21,039 Right? And you can see 1814 00:59:21,405 --> 00:59:23,324 going back Biden, Obama. You know, they've been 1815 00:59:23,324 --> 00:59:24,545 trying to overthrow Venezuela 1816 00:59:24,844 --> 00:59:26,925 and have at least briefly succeeded with Chavez 1817 00:59:26,925 --> 00:59:28,605 once, but the people protested enough where they 1818 00:59:28,605 --> 00:59:29,965 had to bring him back. Most people don't 1819 00:59:29,965 --> 00:59:31,744 even know that, but that's very well documented. 1820 00:59:31,804 --> 00:59:33,724 They've been trying to regime change it for, 1821 00:59:33,724 --> 00:59:34,224 possibly, 1822 00:59:34,605 --> 00:59:36,445 that very reason left and right for a 1823 00:59:36,445 --> 00:59:38,339 very long time. I think the difference is 1824 00:59:38,339 --> 00:59:39,799 that at this point in time, 1825 00:59:40,179 --> 00:59:42,179 whether it's just Israel's interest or whatever else, 1826 00:59:42,179 --> 00:59:44,420 Trump is more amenable to the influence of 1827 00:59:44,420 --> 00:59:46,500 people around him and decided to make this 1828 00:59:46,500 --> 00:59:49,155 belligerent action with Maduro. Right? Because, you mean, 1829 00:59:49,315 --> 00:59:50,835 mean, it could have attempted another regime change. 1830 00:59:50,835 --> 00:59:52,355 They did his last administration. He was very 1831 00:59:52,355 --> 00:59:54,034 embarrassed by that. The military screwed him over. 1832 00:59:54,034 --> 00:59:55,795 Remember that? They pretended they were gonna regime, 1833 00:59:55,795 --> 00:59:57,074 and they they stood up and stood with 1834 00:59:57,074 --> 00:59:58,434 Maduro, and they said you know, they tricked 1835 00:59:58,434 --> 01:00:00,195 him, basically. And that was very embarrassing for 1836 01:00:00,195 --> 01:00:02,195 him. That's arguably why he doesn't work with 1837 01:00:02,195 --> 01:00:04,500 Machado because that's her kind of support base, 1838 01:00:04,579 --> 01:00:06,019 and he feels, like, screwed over by that 1839 01:00:06,019 --> 01:00:07,860 or, like, the double it's very weird the 1840 01:00:07,860 --> 01:00:10,340 way he reacts kind of emotionally. But I 1841 01:00:10,340 --> 01:00:12,099 think it's right now because it's obvious that 1842 01:00:12,099 --> 01:00:14,019 this has always been the agenda for the 1843 01:00:14,099 --> 01:00:15,539 one of the reasons you're making right there, 1844 01:00:15,539 --> 01:00:17,344 and and that now it's just I think 1845 01:00:17,344 --> 01:00:18,625 he's just willing to do it or maybe 1846 01:00:18,625 --> 01:00:20,304 not even in control. But to your point 1847 01:00:20,464 --> 01:00:22,304 Maybe. I think Robert just wrote a recent 1848 01:00:22,304 --> 01:00:24,304 article about this. It's important to think about 1849 01:00:24,304 --> 01:00:25,904 just the first, just the seizing of the 1850 01:00:25,904 --> 01:00:28,704 actual oil, not the industry, which will continue 1851 01:00:28,704 --> 01:00:30,910 to profit them, but the oil itself. He 1852 01:00:30,910 --> 01:00:32,510 makes an excellent argument that I didn't think 1853 01:00:32,510 --> 01:00:34,590 about. Like so we talked about the the 1854 01:00:34,590 --> 01:00:36,110 the supply chain, the flow of oil, and 1855 01:00:36,110 --> 01:00:38,429 others, and that the need to take these 1856 01:00:38,429 --> 01:00:39,650 locations will help 1857 01:00:40,670 --> 01:00:42,664 con if Iran were to shut down the 1858 01:00:42,664 --> 01:00:44,184 Strait Of Hormuz, which is what they threaten, 1859 01:00:44,184 --> 01:00:45,625 that they would be able to circumvent that, 1860 01:00:45,625 --> 01:00:47,065 and that would allow them to continue their 1861 01:00:47,065 --> 01:00:48,505 wars. But he makes a point that if 1862 01:00:48,505 --> 01:00:49,784 they were to seize this oil, which they're 1863 01:00:49,784 --> 01:00:52,264 already doing, that could potentially get them through 1864 01:00:52,264 --> 01:00:54,105 without even needing more flow of oil. And 1865 01:00:54,105 --> 01:00:55,704 that's just an interesting thought, you know, that 1866 01:00:55,704 --> 01:00:57,690 they're, like you said, trying to create the 1867 01:00:57,690 --> 01:01:01,050 circumstances to justify or rather support their next 1868 01:01:01,050 --> 01:01:02,969 action, which I think is clear. I mean, 1869 01:01:02,969 --> 01:01:04,010 I don't even we do we need to 1870 01:01:04,010 --> 01:01:05,769 debate that they wanna go after Iran? Aren't 1871 01:01:05,769 --> 01:01:07,929 they screaming that every thirty seconds? So, clearly, 1872 01:01:07,929 --> 01:01:09,289 this is what that goes to. You know? 1873 01:01:09,289 --> 01:01:11,234 See, I think you're absolutely right. Yeah. And 1874 01:01:11,234 --> 01:01:13,315 and if you and and if Iran is 1875 01:01:13,315 --> 01:01:15,315 the crown jewel and the final target, and 1876 01:01:15,315 --> 01:01:17,554 and they've been pretty clear about that, you 1877 01:01:17,554 --> 01:01:19,234 you just work backwards. How would you do 1878 01:01:19,234 --> 01:01:20,755 it? You would isolate it from any of 1879 01:01:20,755 --> 01:01:22,434 its allies and things like that. So so 1880 01:01:22,434 --> 01:01:23,414 it is a strategic, 1881 01:01:24,275 --> 01:01:25,014 it's rational. 1882 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:27,320 It's crazy, of course. But but but for 1883 01:01:27,320 --> 01:01:28,920 the way they see it, it's rational to 1884 01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:30,760 work your way through that and to to, 1885 01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:33,260 you know, isolate Venezuela, get it to flip, 1886 01:01:33,719 --> 01:01:35,980 and then you could see I mean, 1887 01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:38,380 obviously, you'll see pressure put on. 1888 01:01:38,925 --> 01:01:40,765 It's been put on Russia. There's always so 1889 01:01:40,765 --> 01:01:42,525 much pressure you can put on China when 1890 01:01:42,525 --> 01:01:44,525 they they hold so much of our debt, 1891 01:01:44,525 --> 01:01:47,425 and they manufacture so much of our pharmaceuticals, 1892 01:01:47,805 --> 01:01:49,724 and that we need them so much. So, 1893 01:01:49,724 --> 01:01:50,285 you know, you 1894 01:01:51,010 --> 01:01:53,650 you're gonna have those two guys there backing 1895 01:01:53,650 --> 01:01:54,630 Venezuela or, 1896 01:01:54,930 --> 01:01:55,829 backing Iran. 1897 01:01:56,289 --> 01:01:58,210 But anybody else who shows any sort of 1898 01:01:58,210 --> 01:02:00,050 loyalty, like, you will be picked apart. You 1899 01:02:00,050 --> 01:02:02,050 know, that this is, of course, the reason 1900 01:02:02,050 --> 01:02:03,590 why I think when you look at Somalia, 1901 01:02:03,970 --> 01:02:06,704 it's getting sliced into Somaliland, and that's, of 1902 01:02:06,704 --> 01:02:07,445 course, geographically 1903 01:02:07,744 --> 01:02:08,885 right across from, 1904 01:02:09,585 --> 01:02:11,585 from Yemen. It'd be a good place if 1905 01:02:11,585 --> 01:02:13,184 you were Israel and you wanted to keep 1906 01:02:13,184 --> 01:02:14,885 an eye on somebody that might be, 1907 01:02:15,585 --> 01:02:17,265 coming after you in the future. Yeah. That'd 1908 01:02:17,265 --> 01:02:19,025 be a logical place. So you can see 1909 01:02:19,025 --> 01:02:21,025 kind of how things are playing out. It'll 1910 01:02:21,025 --> 01:02:21,525 all 1911 01:02:22,230 --> 01:02:24,550 make perfect sense in the aftermath. Right? Once 1912 01:02:24,550 --> 01:02:26,630 World War three kicks off and it and 1913 01:02:26,630 --> 01:02:27,190 it and it 1914 01:02:28,309 --> 01:02:29,829 and and the fake history books are written, 1915 01:02:29,829 --> 01:02:30,730 it'll all 1916 01:02:31,190 --> 01:02:33,190 line up and you'll see where it's but 1917 01:02:33,190 --> 01:02:34,250 trying to to 1918 01:02:35,375 --> 01:02:37,214 catch it in the middle and extrapolate out 1919 01:02:37,214 --> 01:02:38,894 where it's going is, of course, a little 1920 01:02:38,894 --> 01:02:40,355 bit more challenging. But 1921 01:02:40,655 --> 01:02:42,335 but you can you can see the moves 1922 01:02:42,335 --> 01:02:43,934 being made and and and you and of 1923 01:02:43,934 --> 01:02:45,714 course, it's also 1924 01:02:46,014 --> 01:02:48,974 extremely important to understand that these people have 1925 01:02:48,974 --> 01:02:50,809 a mindset of wanting 1926 01:02:51,349 --> 01:02:52,329 war. But 1927 01:02:52,630 --> 01:02:53,449 what we 1928 01:02:53,750 --> 01:02:56,070 where we come at this is how what 1929 01:02:56,070 --> 01:02:57,829 are our options for preventing war? How do 1930 01:02:57,829 --> 01:02:59,430 we make sure that this war doesn't kick 1931 01:02:59,430 --> 01:03:01,590 off here here? And and and their their 1932 01:03:01,590 --> 01:03:02,730 mindset is 1933 01:03:03,590 --> 01:03:05,130 is is how do, you know, 1934 01:03:05,465 --> 01:03:07,545 how do we initiate crisis, how do we 1935 01:03:07,545 --> 01:03:10,025 start crisis initiation with Iran. Right? With with 1936 01:03:10,025 --> 01:03:12,605 the Pelham blossoms of the world talking about 1937 01:03:12,824 --> 01:03:15,144 Iranian submarines going down and sometimes they don't 1938 01:03:15,144 --> 01:03:16,905 come back up. Right? So so our mind 1939 01:03:16,985 --> 01:03:19,010 we have to remember that be we have 1940 01:03:19,010 --> 01:03:21,429 to be careful not to export our 1941 01:03:22,210 --> 01:03:26,210 sensible, reasonable, rational mindset onto them and think, 1942 01:03:26,210 --> 01:03:26,949 oh, well, 1943 01:03:27,250 --> 01:03:29,010 we're all looking for solutions to not have 1944 01:03:29,010 --> 01:03:30,710 World War three. Unfortunately, 1945 01:03:31,089 --> 01:03:34,094 some people are seeing that quite differently. Yeah. 1946 01:03:34,335 --> 01:03:36,894 And to your point about the more challenging, 1947 01:03:36,894 --> 01:03:38,175 you know, I agree with you. Like, in 1948 01:03:38,175 --> 01:03:40,094 a general sense, we should always consider that, 1949 01:03:40,094 --> 01:03:42,094 you know, we don't hindsight's twenty twenty. Right? 1950 01:03:42,094 --> 01:03:43,534 We don't always see every part of it, 1951 01:03:43,534 --> 01:03:45,375 and, usually, we don't. And there's plenty of 1952 01:03:45,375 --> 01:03:47,474 times when these things are much more difficult, 1953 01:03:47,534 --> 01:03:48,195 more nuanced. 1954 01:03:48,650 --> 01:03:50,170 But I'm of the mind today, and it's 1955 01:03:50,170 --> 01:03:51,449 just I mean, you could look at both 1956 01:03:51,449 --> 01:03:53,230 of our track records. Look at the information 1957 01:03:53,289 --> 01:03:55,449 we've been covering and how how far ahead 1958 01:03:55,449 --> 01:03:57,610 in general and, again, not because we're some 1959 01:03:57,610 --> 01:03:59,050 super sleuth. I mean, I do think we're 1960 01:03:59,050 --> 01:04:00,090 good at what we do, but it was 1961 01:04:00,170 --> 01:04:02,655 it's more so because it's just obvious today. 1962 01:04:02,735 --> 01:04:04,255 Like, I think that's important to note that 1963 01:04:04,255 --> 01:04:05,855 some of these things are just it is 1964 01:04:05,855 --> 01:04:07,135 easy to see. And I think what we're 1965 01:04:07,135 --> 01:04:09,934 highlighting right now is borderline not even debatable. 1966 01:04:09,934 --> 01:04:11,695 I think it's quite obvious this is part 1967 01:04:11,695 --> 01:04:13,135 of the agenda and that they will be 1968 01:04:13,135 --> 01:04:14,815 going after Ron if that's something they can 1969 01:04:14,815 --> 01:04:17,200 accomplish because they're they're telling us that. You 1970 01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:19,519 know? So it's this interesting time where maybe 1971 01:04:19,519 --> 01:04:21,440 by design, maybe because they're incompetent, maybe because 1972 01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:23,360 they're not in control, that ultimately these things 1973 01:04:23,360 --> 01:04:25,440 are pretty wildly obvious. But you get these 1974 01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:28,640 big, like, bombastic million follower TeamSport politics players 1975 01:04:28,640 --> 01:04:30,515 out there that are, know, historically have been 1976 01:04:30,515 --> 01:04:31,954 calling out all of these things, but now 1977 01:04:31,954 --> 01:04:33,715 it's finally happening. And they're like, you know, 1978 01:04:33,715 --> 01:04:35,474 look over there. Like, not really getting into 1979 01:04:35,474 --> 01:04:37,175 it. And so I think it's it's 1980 01:04:37,474 --> 01:04:38,994 I mean, you take your check your pick 1981 01:04:38,994 --> 01:04:39,655 out there. 1982 01:04:39,954 --> 01:04:41,954 It's happening and it's obvious why is up 1983 01:04:41,954 --> 01:04:43,690 for debate. But I think it's worth noting 1984 01:04:43,690 --> 01:04:45,369 that it is kind of that obvious in 1985 01:04:45,369 --> 01:04:46,430 some of these agendas. 1986 01:04:46,809 --> 01:04:48,329 Our work is evidence of that. You know? 1987 01:04:48,329 --> 01:04:50,410 It's it's interesting. But I I wanna do, 1988 01:04:50,890 --> 01:04:52,329 one last point on this while I just 1989 01:04:52,329 --> 01:04:53,690 kinda wrap up is, you know, the the 1990 01:04:53,690 --> 01:04:55,930 Venezuela thing is is interesting beyond what we 1991 01:04:55,930 --> 01:04:57,369 talked about as well because there's so many 1992 01:04:57,369 --> 01:04:58,944 other moving parts to it. Like, we we 1993 01:04:58,944 --> 01:05:00,545 didn't we can talk about rare earth minerals, 1994 01:05:00,545 --> 01:05:02,944 lithium. We'll coup whoever we want. And Elon 1995 01:05:02,944 --> 01:05:04,784 said about Bolivia. Right? The these are real 1996 01:05:04,784 --> 01:05:06,385 discussions that very much have a play a 1997 01:05:06,385 --> 01:05:08,385 factor, and it's weird to me how little 1998 01:05:08,385 --> 01:05:11,025 conversation the lithium gets. It's unrealized. It's it's, 1999 01:05:11,025 --> 01:05:11,684 I think, 2000 01:05:11,989 --> 01:05:13,429 know, they have it's not real but it's 2001 01:05:13,429 --> 01:05:14,630 been shown to be one of the largest 2002 01:05:14,630 --> 01:05:16,389 reserves, and that doesn't get talked about. And 2003 01:05:16,389 --> 01:05:18,469 that's huge for AI and for everything or 2004 01:05:18,469 --> 01:05:20,230 the gold, for example, or plenty of other 2005 01:05:20,230 --> 01:05:21,989 things. But one thing we don't talk, like, 2006 01:05:21,989 --> 01:05:24,150 talk we didn't get into, like, Delsey Rodriguez 2007 01:05:24,150 --> 01:05:26,485 and the interesting overlap there and whether she's 2008 01:05:26,485 --> 01:05:28,005 playing him or whether she's made a deal 2009 01:05:28,005 --> 01:05:29,284 and, you know, where it's all going because 2010 01:05:29,284 --> 01:05:30,965 I don't know. We'd be it'd be guessing 2011 01:05:30,965 --> 01:05:32,324 at this point, but it's interesting to see 2012 01:05:32,324 --> 01:05:34,485 how it's played out. But one argument about 2013 01:05:34,485 --> 01:05:36,405 immigration. Right? So if this had gone the 2014 01:05:36,405 --> 01:05:37,844 way it usually goes and they just came 2015 01:05:37,844 --> 01:05:39,765 in and just, you know, broke things and 2016 01:05:39,765 --> 01:05:40,425 went crazy, 2017 01:05:40,860 --> 01:05:43,099 there would be a massive influx of immigration 2018 01:05:43,099 --> 01:05:44,780 in The United States, which happens every time. 2019 01:05:44,780 --> 01:05:46,619 The sanctions caused that and still do. So 2020 01:05:46,619 --> 01:05:48,619 it's interesting that usually they wanna create that, 2021 01:05:48,619 --> 01:05:49,980 but at this point, it seems they're trying 2022 01:05:49,980 --> 01:05:51,500 to keep it a little bit more stable. 2023 01:05:51,500 --> 01:05:53,019 But I think it's largely because of the 2024 01:05:53,019 --> 01:05:55,175 interest of the oil and more maintaining the 2025 01:05:55,175 --> 01:05:56,934 industry. But what the point is to make 2026 01:05:56,934 --> 01:05:58,375 that you're willing to now work with the 2027 01:05:58,375 --> 01:06:00,135 very people you just told us were monsters 2028 01:06:00,135 --> 01:06:01,894 and terrorists because, well, we need to profit 2029 01:06:01,894 --> 01:06:03,735 from the industry. It just they don't have 2030 01:06:03,815 --> 01:06:05,335 nothing is sacred to these people, and it's 2031 01:06:05,335 --> 01:06:07,349 as it's clear by everything they do. You 2032 01:06:07,349 --> 01:06:09,269 know? They continue to show you this or 2033 01:06:09,269 --> 01:06:10,949 claiming he's part of the what was it? 2034 01:06:10,949 --> 01:06:13,109 The, Cartel del Soles or whatever the group 2035 01:06:13,109 --> 01:06:14,789 was. Oh, sorry. That doesn't even exist, and 2036 01:06:14,789 --> 01:06:16,409 we made it up, but let's move forward. 2037 01:06:16,549 --> 01:06:17,909 You know? It's like Exactly. That's what we're 2038 01:06:17,909 --> 01:06:19,574 talking about. It's obvious, guys. It's obvious. 2039 01:06:20,214 --> 01:06:22,454 There's a Henry Kissinger quote where he's talking 2040 01:06:22,454 --> 01:06:24,054 about the Khmer Rouge behind their back. He's 2041 01:06:24,054 --> 01:06:25,655 like, yeah. They're murderous thugs. Don't tell them 2042 01:06:25,655 --> 01:06:26,775 I said that. We will work with them, 2043 01:06:26,775 --> 01:06:27,894 but don't tell them I said that part. 2044 01:06:27,894 --> 01:06:28,934 Right. I really 2045 01:06:29,655 --> 01:06:30,855 You know, back back when they didn't know 2046 01:06:30,934 --> 01:06:32,454 what's funny is how many things you can 2047 01:06:32,454 --> 01:06:34,420 see when, you know, at different time. There 2048 01:06:34,420 --> 01:06:36,179 wasn't really the it wasn't Internet or, you 2049 01:06:36,179 --> 01:06:38,099 know, ways to, like, rapidly to see these 2050 01:06:38,099 --> 01:06:39,699 things. But you look back and these people, 2051 01:06:39,699 --> 01:06:41,460 you know, they they will wax intellectual about 2052 01:06:41,460 --> 01:06:43,059 why sanctions are used to hurt people. You 2053 01:06:43,059 --> 01:06:44,579 know? It's like Yeah. It's all there if 2054 01:06:44,579 --> 01:06:45,940 you wanna look. You know? It's just crazy. 2055 01:06:45,940 --> 01:06:48,005 But Well, I think good 2056 01:06:48,304 --> 01:06:50,545 good news for the general public is is 2057 01:06:50,545 --> 01:06:51,364 starting to 2058 01:06:51,664 --> 01:06:52,804 have this epiphany 2059 01:06:53,184 --> 01:06:55,204 that sometimes the American empire 2060 01:06:55,505 --> 01:06:57,844 is you know, we talk about Somali pirates. 2061 01:06:58,719 --> 01:07:00,640 I mean, the American Empire is the biggest 2062 01:07:00,640 --> 01:07:02,960 pirate around. Exactly. And sometimes we will literally 2063 01:07:02,960 --> 01:07:04,960 do pirate things like take their take your 2064 01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:08,320 ships, take your oil, and and, you know, 2065 01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:09,699 you have that that 2066 01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:12,480 Hans Gruber moment. It's like, wait. This is 2067 01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:12,980 about 2068 01:07:13,674 --> 01:07:14,255 a theft? 2069 01:07:14,954 --> 01:07:17,514 And it's like, yeah. And, you know, and 2070 01:07:17,514 --> 01:07:19,914 since we're thinking of moving into kidnapping, you 2071 01:07:19,914 --> 01:07:21,694 should show a little bit more respect, 2072 01:07:22,234 --> 01:07:23,514 you know. And this is this is how 2073 01:07:23,514 --> 01:07:25,275 the American empire you you go, wait a 2074 01:07:25,275 --> 01:07:27,069 second. I thought we were about spreading freedom 2075 01:07:27,069 --> 01:07:29,389 freedom and democracy. We're emptying out the bank 2076 01:07:29,389 --> 01:07:32,109 vault? It's like, it's always been about emptying 2077 01:07:32,109 --> 01:07:34,429 out the bank vault, dummy. Mhmm. You know? 2078 01:07:34,429 --> 01:07:37,089 Right. It's always been about taking the resources 2079 01:07:37,150 --> 01:07:39,174 of this country. I mean, the book that 2080 01:07:39,174 --> 01:07:41,094 woke me up to this, Confessions of an 2081 01:07:41,094 --> 01:07:43,335 Economic Hit Me by John Perkins, laid that 2082 01:07:43,335 --> 01:07:45,014 out in a way that I just I 2083 01:07:45,014 --> 01:07:45,994 couldn't comprehend 2084 01:07:46,534 --> 01:07:48,694 until he laid it out in a in 2085 01:07:48,694 --> 01:07:49,974 a in a manner. It's like, you think 2086 01:07:49,974 --> 01:07:51,755 that your local bank 2087 01:07:52,160 --> 01:07:54,880 loans money into existence and gets you into 2088 01:07:54,880 --> 01:07:57,280 something a debt, and then you fall behind. 2089 01:07:57,280 --> 01:07:59,360 It takes back tangible assets like your house 2090 01:07:59,360 --> 01:08:01,200 if you fall behind in the payments. Well, 2091 01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:03,119 just think about that in terms of loaning 2092 01:08:03,119 --> 01:08:04,820 money to a country like Venezuela 2093 01:08:05,355 --> 01:08:07,034 to by the IMF and the World Bank 2094 01:08:07,034 --> 01:08:08,815 and getting them to sign on to 2095 01:08:09,114 --> 01:08:10,574 hydroelectric power plant 2096 01:08:11,114 --> 01:08:11,614 construction 2097 01:08:11,914 --> 01:08:12,815 projects and, 2098 01:08:13,755 --> 01:08:16,414 you know, and falling behind in the payments 2099 01:08:16,715 --> 01:08:19,914 to these international banking loan sharks. And so 2100 01:08:19,914 --> 01:08:22,320 I think that for for for people that, 2101 01:08:22,320 --> 01:08:22,899 you know, 2102 01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:25,300 are interested in Venezuela, like, 2103 01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:28,560 I I assure you the bankers were flying 2104 01:08:28,560 --> 01:08:31,039 in first. Before the missiles came, the bankers 2105 01:08:31,039 --> 01:08:31,780 were there. 2106 01:08:32,399 --> 01:08:34,871 They were having conversations and they sorting things 2107 01:08:34,871 --> 01:08:38,214 out because the governments come and go. But 2108 01:08:38,214 --> 01:08:41,557 those resources that are in the ground, those 2109 01:08:41,557 --> 01:08:44,900 will be controlled by the banks. Yep. And 2110 01:08:44,900 --> 01:08:48,243 they're in there working that out right now, 2111 01:08:48,243 --> 01:08:49,079 I I 2112 01:08:49,560 --> 01:08:52,280 suspect. Well, he admitted, I think, clumsily as 2113 01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:53,560 usual that he spoke to the to the 2114 01:08:53,560 --> 01:08:55,560 oil companies before he told congress, and now 2115 01:08:55,560 --> 01:08:56,680 they try to sort of wrap that up 2116 01:08:56,680 --> 01:08:58,039 behind the scenes and say, well, no. I 2117 01:08:58,039 --> 01:09:00,280 kind of mentioned it, but they they very 2118 01:09:00,280 --> 01:09:01,800 clearly it's obvious when you look at the 2119 01:09:01,800 --> 01:09:03,375 way it played out. You know? So this 2120 01:09:03,375 --> 01:09:04,975 happens, as you point out, every single time. 2121 01:09:04,975 --> 01:09:07,375 You know? And what I expect, if this 2122 01:09:07,454 --> 01:09:09,135 I'm still on the fence about what Delsey 2123 01:09:09,135 --> 01:09:10,435 Rodriguez is. 2124 01:09:10,814 --> 01:09:12,414 I think we're gonna see it, but I 2125 01:09:12,414 --> 01:09:15,135 I saw more today talking about her softening 2126 01:09:15,135 --> 01:09:16,574 to their interest and maybe meeting with the 2127 01:09:16,574 --> 01:09:18,210 US government. You know? It's like it that 2128 01:09:18,210 --> 01:09:19,729 even still could be just her trying to 2129 01:09:19,729 --> 01:09:21,569 not be overthrown, you know, because they're they're 2130 01:09:21,569 --> 01:09:23,010 still standing up there going, if you don't 2131 01:09:23,010 --> 01:09:24,369 do what we want, we're gonna come back 2132 01:09:24,369 --> 01:09:25,770 and bomb this and take you. It's like 2133 01:09:25,970 --> 01:09:27,750 but democracy. You know, it's just embarrassing. 2134 01:09:28,210 --> 01:09:30,529 But where this ultimately goes, you know, what 2135 01:09:30,529 --> 01:09:32,369 she does next, whether she's I what I 2136 01:09:32,369 --> 01:09:34,744 expect is either that she'll stay underground, and 2137 01:09:34,744 --> 01:09:36,265 then they'll do more, which will continue to 2138 01:09:36,265 --> 01:09:38,505 show you what they're really about, or she'll 2139 01:09:38,505 --> 01:09:40,505 sell out. And, you know, whether that means 2140 01:09:40,505 --> 01:09:41,945 what we just discussed, but on top of 2141 01:09:41,945 --> 01:09:44,505 that, I expect Israeli bases to be built. 2142 01:09:44,505 --> 01:09:45,945 I expect US bases to be built. I 2143 01:09:45,945 --> 01:09:47,564 expect you know, which we've seen in Somaliland 2144 01:09:47,625 --> 01:09:49,210 and every other place, and it will happen 2145 01:09:49,210 --> 01:09:49,710 instantaneously. 2146 01:09:50,170 --> 01:09:51,729 Or we'll go, oh, guess what? Israel built 2147 01:09:51,729 --> 01:09:52,969 a base two years ago. You didn't know 2148 01:09:52,969 --> 01:09:54,569 about it. Oh, okay. So now it's been 2149 01:09:54,569 --> 01:09:56,329 something you know? That's where this tends to 2150 01:09:56,329 --> 01:09:57,449 go. So I think we need to, you 2151 01:09:57,449 --> 01:09:58,829 know, watch this carefully, 2152 01:09:59,130 --> 01:10:01,210 but just as we keep discussing this entire 2153 01:10:01,210 --> 01:10:03,289 show, we look at the surface. You can 2154 01:10:03,289 --> 01:10:05,545 see these things not because of anything other 2155 01:10:05,545 --> 01:10:08,425 than they're obvious. Right? That's not democracy. I 2156 01:10:08,425 --> 01:10:10,125 I made fun of Rick Scott, for example, 2157 01:10:10,265 --> 01:10:11,864 where he's like, if democracy is coming back 2158 01:10:11,864 --> 01:10:13,465 to the area and we're like, he that's 2159 01:10:13,465 --> 01:10:14,585 when he said, if you don't do this, 2160 01:10:14,585 --> 01:10:15,625 we're gonna come in and take you out 2161 01:10:15,625 --> 01:10:16,905 of the way. Delsey, you better do what 2162 01:10:16,905 --> 01:10:18,359 The US wants, or we're gonna come in. 2163 01:10:18,439 --> 01:10:20,199 Because, clearly, that's democracy. Right? I mean, I 2164 01:10:20,199 --> 01:10:22,439 don't even know if they recognize that they 2165 01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:24,840 I I the self awareness may be lacking, 2166 01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:26,520 or maybe they just, like you said, just 2167 01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:28,520 wanna normalize the criminal activity and call it 2168 01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:30,760 democracy. But we're in a bad we're the 2169 01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:32,425 government's in a bad way right now. And 2170 01:10:32,425 --> 01:10:33,864 it's like, we can capitalize on this as 2171 01:10:33,864 --> 01:10:35,465 American people, and I think we should. You 2172 01:10:35,465 --> 01:10:38,265 know? So always appreciate your talking your conversation, 2173 01:10:38,265 --> 01:10:40,664 brother. Enjoy it. Well, I I appreciate you 2174 01:10:40,664 --> 01:10:42,505 having me on. I know that the next 2175 01:10:42,505 --> 01:10:43,564 time we do this, 2176 01:10:44,199 --> 01:10:46,280 be like spinning the wheel of, 2177 01:10:46,760 --> 01:10:49,319 of chaos and and whatever Yep. Whatever it's 2178 01:10:49,319 --> 01:10:51,180 landing on. There'll be some new 2179 01:10:51,800 --> 01:10:54,520 distraction that will feel extremely important in the 2180 01:10:54,520 --> 01:10:57,000 moment, and and maybe will be, but but, 2181 01:10:57,239 --> 01:10:59,020 it'll fade away. And and we'll 2182 01:10:59,324 --> 01:11:01,344 they'll get us round wound up and 2183 01:11:02,045 --> 01:11:02,944 pissed off again. 2184 01:11:03,324 --> 01:11:05,744 Okay. Well, quick quick prediction for fun. 2185 01:11:06,204 --> 01:11:07,024 Next month, 2186 01:11:07,324 --> 01:11:09,324 what do you think not not like let's 2187 01:11:09,324 --> 01:11:11,164 let's try think of something you think might 2188 01:11:11,164 --> 01:11:13,130 happen that no one's talking about. That might 2189 01:11:13,130 --> 01:11:14,170 be hard, actually. I'm trying to think of 2190 01:11:14,170 --> 01:11:14,670 something. 2191 01:11:14,970 --> 01:11:17,770 Well well yeah. Because it's because it's recently 2192 01:11:17,770 --> 01:11:19,369 started happening, but I just I just put 2193 01:11:19,369 --> 01:11:21,449 out an episode of macroaggressions called the Trump 2194 01:11:21,449 --> 01:11:24,109 doctrine. And and I was talking about Greenland. 2195 01:11:24,250 --> 01:11:26,010 I was thinking this isn't some I mean, 2196 01:11:26,010 --> 01:11:27,935 it it seemed like kind of like funny 2197 01:11:27,935 --> 01:11:29,215 when he started talking about it in the 2198 01:11:29,215 --> 01:11:30,675 2024. 2199 01:11:30,734 --> 01:11:32,675 And then but when you read about 2200 01:11:33,375 --> 01:11:34,194 about the 2201 01:11:34,494 --> 01:11:36,975 the Technocracy and the Technates and and and 2202 01:11:36,975 --> 01:11:39,715 these other groups, what you find is that 2203 01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:42,239 there's a little bit more to what he's 2204 01:11:42,239 --> 01:11:44,159 talking about. It's almost like he got briefed 2205 01:11:44,159 --> 01:11:46,000 on a meeting, kinda got half of half 2206 01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:47,760 of a briefing on on a meeting and 2207 01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:50,000 started talking about Grain on people. What? What 2208 01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:52,479 does this mean? There's more there. There's something 2209 01:11:52,479 --> 01:11:53,920 there. So I I would 2210 01:11:54,465 --> 01:11:56,625 but I but, again, it doesn't really fit 2211 01:11:56,625 --> 01:11:58,625 your criteria because people are now starting to 2212 01:11:58,625 --> 01:11:59,824 talk about that. But I think in a 2213 01:11:59,824 --> 01:12:01,744 in a month from now, it's not gonna 2214 01:12:01,744 --> 01:12:03,664 be like, hey. This green one thing is 2215 01:12:03,664 --> 01:12:05,185 is kind of a crazy idea. It's gonna 2216 01:12:05,185 --> 01:12:06,625 be, do we take them next week or 2217 01:12:06,625 --> 01:12:07,364 next month? 2218 01:12:07,729 --> 01:12:09,729 Yeah. And so I I would add the 2219 01:12:09,810 --> 01:12:11,489 I this is kind of the same point 2220 01:12:11,489 --> 01:12:12,930 as I just saw a notification, so it's 2221 01:12:12,930 --> 01:12:14,710 not exactly the same point, but Mexico. 2222 01:12:15,250 --> 01:12:16,689 Literally just saw I mean, I I I 2223 01:12:16,689 --> 01:12:18,449 was the same mind. Like, Robert's article said 2224 01:12:18,449 --> 01:12:20,130 the same thing. There we've seen the threats, 2225 01:12:20,130 --> 01:12:22,449 Cuba, Mexico, which is just crazy that it's 2226 01:12:22,449 --> 01:12:24,125 even being done. But 2227 01:12:24,505 --> 01:12:26,425 I saw something today about more motion than 2228 01:12:26,425 --> 01:12:27,864 that. Now Trump's saying we may have to 2229 01:12:27,864 --> 01:12:29,564 bomb in Mexico to go after the cartels. 2230 01:12:29,784 --> 01:12:31,385 Like, so it's the same kind of general 2231 01:12:31,385 --> 01:12:33,864 narrative about the cartels in in Venezuela. And 2232 01:12:33,864 --> 01:12:35,545 so that's I I think that the your 2233 01:12:35,704 --> 01:12:37,064 what you just said is what was on 2234 01:12:37,064 --> 01:12:39,229 my mind, the tech Nate. The idea of 2235 01:12:39,229 --> 01:12:41,949 this entire North American union, Greenland, Mexico, and 2236 01:12:41,949 --> 01:12:42,770 it's almost 2237 01:12:43,070 --> 01:12:45,010 conspicuous. Like, you know, the it's 2238 01:12:45,630 --> 01:12:46,989 we've been calling this out, and then it 2239 01:12:46,989 --> 01:12:48,510 gets kinda falling into the background, but then 2240 01:12:48,510 --> 01:12:50,030 it just comes right back up. You know, 2241 01:12:50,030 --> 01:12:51,869 I I pointed to Peter Thiel, making it 2242 01:12:51,869 --> 01:12:53,475 clear he wanted, I think, for Praxia. He 2243 01:12:53,475 --> 01:12:55,154 wanted to build in Greenland. Now I don't 2244 01:12:55,154 --> 01:12:57,314 think that's the primary driving force. Certainly could 2245 01:12:57,314 --> 01:12:59,314 be. There's other interest there. There's I forget 2246 01:12:59,314 --> 01:13:01,395 his name. One of these Trump related billionaires 2247 01:13:01,395 --> 01:13:03,154 is already buying up Greenland business. Like, it 2248 01:13:03,314 --> 01:13:05,074 it's clear that they see the writing on 2249 01:13:05,074 --> 01:13:06,514 the wall. You know? So I I agree. 2250 01:13:06,514 --> 01:13:07,954 I think that's gonna be the next big 2251 01:13:07,954 --> 01:13:09,750 sort of drive there. But, I mean, there's 2252 01:13:09,750 --> 01:13:11,829 plenty of things, you know, that like, the 2253 01:13:11,829 --> 01:13:13,270 point where I was kind of jokingly making 2254 01:13:13,270 --> 01:13:15,510 is that by next month, it probably we're 2255 01:13:15,510 --> 01:13:17,510 gonna be in another planet. Yeah. Like, something 2256 01:13:17,510 --> 01:13:20,149 completely different. But, ultimately, I think these things 2257 01:13:20,149 --> 01:13:21,984 will continue, and glad to keep calling them 2258 01:13:21,984 --> 01:13:23,505 out. Make sure you check out Charlie's work. 2259 01:13:23,505 --> 01:13:24,864 Anything you wanna leave us with on the 2260 01:13:24,864 --> 01:13:26,324 the way out? Any upcoming things? 2261 01:13:26,864 --> 01:13:28,784 Well, now well, now I'm like, I'll be 2262 01:13:28,784 --> 01:13:31,284 reporting to you from Mexico maybe next month. 2263 01:13:31,345 --> 01:13:32,885 Yeah. I'll be there for an Acapulco. 2264 01:13:33,185 --> 01:13:35,100 So maybe hold off on all the all 2265 01:13:35,100 --> 01:13:36,239 the drone assassinations 2266 01:13:36,539 --> 01:13:40,159 until well, actually, forever, please. Yeah. Yeah. 2267 01:13:40,939 --> 01:13:43,840 Especially so no. Anarkapulco, I'll be there from, 2268 01:13:44,060 --> 01:13:47,179 February 15 through the twentieth as the, as 2269 01:13:47,179 --> 01:13:50,079 the emcee for the five days herding anarchist 2270 01:13:50,139 --> 01:13:51,954 cats. Be a lot of fun, but it's 2271 01:13:51,954 --> 01:13:54,194 a it's a it's an interesting batch of 2272 01:13:54,194 --> 01:13:56,435 people. Good group. So for those interested in 2273 01:13:56,435 --> 01:13:57,734 arcapulco.com. 2274 01:13:57,875 --> 01:13:59,635 Awesome. Well, thanks, brother.
