Left vs Right: Devin Douglass on Re-Humanizing Politics

WEBVTT

1
00:00:08.723 --> 00:00:08.983
Devin,

2
00:00:09.023 --> 00:00:10.204
welcome back to Fargo Talk.

3
00:00:10.244 --> 00:00:10.904
Thanks for having me.

4
00:00:10.905 --> 00:00:11.364
My friend.

5
00:00:11.664 --> 00:00:12.205
Good to see you.

6
00:00:12.345 --> 00:00:13.005
Good to see you.

7
00:00:13.006 --> 00:00:13.625
Yes,

8
00:00:13.645 --> 00:00:14.285
very good.

9
00:00:14.286 --> 00:00:15.186
It's something that

10
00:00:15.666 --> 00:00:21.129
I wanted you back on with all the stuff going on now in our country.

11
00:00:21.809 --> 00:00:24.910
And we're becoming so divided with things.

12
00:00:25.410 --> 00:00:25.631
And

13
00:00:26.531 --> 00:00:27.331
I love your brain.

14
00:00:27.772 --> 00:00:28.172
Thanks.

15
00:00:28.292 --> 00:00:28.732
You're welcome.

16
00:00:28.892 --> 00:00:30.693
I just think you're a really good guy.

17
00:00:30.974 --> 00:00:37.218
And so I wanted to just have you come in and just let's just talk about what's going on.

18
00:00:37.238 --> 00:00:37.939
We need to talk.

19
00:00:37.999 --> 00:00:39.160
The world needs to talk.

20
00:00:39.380 --> 00:00:40.380
America needs to talk.

21
00:00:40.841 --> 00:00:41.701
I think you're right.

22
00:00:41.721 --> 00:00:48.166
That's what we talked about before we went live is that we need to do more things that unite us than divide us.

23
00:00:48.226 --> 00:00:48.526
Yes.

24
00:00:48.807 --> 00:00:55.692
And go back for a second and tell me about the conversation you had with your husband and also.

25
00:00:56.276 --> 00:00:57.617
His political affiliation,

26
00:00:57.817 --> 00:00:59.119
and if you're okay with saying it,

27
00:00:59.679 --> 00:01:02.541
his religious affiliation is wonderful.

28
00:01:02.542 --> 00:01:02.682
Yeah,

29
00:01:03.322 --> 00:01:06.705
to make myself even more of a unicorn that I am,

30
00:01:06.825 --> 00:01:08.066
my husband is a

31
00:01:08.647 --> 00:01:13.191
Democrat. So we definitely have polar opposite political beliefs,

32
00:01:13.271 --> 00:01:14.552
and he's also LDS.

33
00:01:14.632 --> 00:01:18.035
So with the past events of this horrible,

34
00:01:18.095 --> 00:01:18.575
horrific,

35
00:01:18.655 --> 00:01:19.796
terrible shooting,

36
00:01:20.797 --> 00:01:23.319
that kind of sparked all those conversations back up.

37
00:01:24.244 --> 00:01:28.588
And one thing he said to me that really kind of affected me when he was walking out the door this morning,

38
00:01:28.628 --> 00:01:29.128
he just said,

39
00:01:29.148 --> 00:01:29.368
you know,

40
00:01:29.448 --> 00:01:31.250
today be a uniter,

41
00:01:31.490 --> 00:01:32.370
not a divider.

42
00:01:33.351 --> 00:01:35.373
And that stuck with me because I think a lot of us,

43
00:01:35.413 --> 00:01:40.117
it's super easy to fall into that very divisive rhetoric.

44
00:01:41.338 --> 00:01:43.940
There's obviously so much that makes us different,

45
00:01:43.941 --> 00:01:46.602
but there's so much that makes us alike and the same.

46
00:01:47.222 --> 00:01:49.464
And I think that's part of the issue right now is that.

47
00:01:49.664 --> 00:01:51.405
people aren't having conversations.

48
00:01:51.445 --> 00:01:51.926
It's like,

49
00:01:52.106 --> 00:01:53.987
as soon as a shooting happens lately,

50
00:01:54.067 --> 00:01:54.508
it's like,

51
00:01:54.988 --> 00:01:55.969
everyone's quick to like,

52
00:01:56.229 --> 00:01:56.629
figure out,

53
00:01:56.729 --> 00:01:57.590
are they a Democrat?

54
00:01:57.670 --> 00:01:58.611
Are they a Republican?

55
00:01:58.671 --> 00:01:59.371
Are they MAGA?

56
00:01:59.471 --> 00:02:00.272
Are they liberal?

57
00:02:00.412 --> 00:02:01.013
And it's like,

58
00:02:01.633 --> 00:02:03.094
that's really strange to me,

59
00:02:03.134 --> 00:02:10.340
because that shouldn't be the first thing that we think of when we when we see a news article or something pop up on our phone,

60
00:02:10.700 --> 00:02:11.000
you know,

61
00:02:11.180 --> 00:02:13.122
20 people killed active shooter,

62
00:02:13.202 --> 00:02:13.742
and we think,

63
00:02:14.022 --> 00:02:14.143
Oh,

64
00:02:14.144 --> 00:02:15.844
is it a Democrat or a Republican?

65
00:02:16.845 --> 00:02:20.468
Or were they trans or were they gay or were they black or were they white?

66
00:02:20.469 --> 00:02:21.228
They did with a furry.

67
00:02:21.669 --> 00:02:22.890
I don't care who they were.

68
00:02:23.430 --> 00:02:23.690
I mean,

69
00:02:23.910 --> 00:02:25.772
they killed a bunch of innocent people.

70
00:02:25.852 --> 00:02:27.693
And that is all that matters.

71
00:02:27.753 --> 00:02:31.937
It shouldn't the headlines shouldn't have anything to do with that person's race,

72
00:02:31.977 --> 00:02:32.818
their sexuality,

73
00:02:32.878 --> 00:02:34.299
their political affiliations,

74
00:02:34.359 --> 00:02:35.059
their religion.

75
00:02:35.620 --> 00:02:36.461
At the end of the day,

76
00:02:37.021 --> 00:02:40.204
innocent people were practicing their faith,

77
00:02:40.284 --> 00:02:42.185
which is what this country was founded on.

78
00:02:42.786 --> 00:02:45.007
And they should have the right to do that without fear of,

79
00:02:45.168 --> 00:02:45.488
you know.

80
00:02:45.772 --> 00:02:47.232
being targeted just for that.

81
00:02:48.133 --> 00:02:48.393
It's,

82
00:02:50.073 --> 00:02:53.094
it's so easy to become emotional.

83
00:02:53.454 --> 00:02:53.974
Yeah.

84
00:02:53.975 --> 00:02:54.254
Right.

85
00:02:54.574 --> 00:02:54.794
And

86
00:02:55.395 --> 00:02:56.155
I've always learned,

87
00:02:56.235 --> 00:03:01.216
and I was always taught the first person in a negotiation or in a conversation,

88
00:03:01.516 --> 00:03:06.598
the first person that gets overtly emotional in a negative way,

89
00:03:06.778 --> 00:03:07.658
like you get upset,

90
00:03:07.738 --> 00:03:08.518
you get angry,

91
00:03:08.538 --> 00:03:09.618
you become accusatory,

92
00:03:09.678 --> 00:03:12.699
you're going to lose the argument and you're going to lose your audience as well.

93
00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:13.319
Yeah.

94
00:03:13.320 --> 00:03:13.500
Right?

95
00:03:13.920 --> 00:03:15.280
The only people I think you're going to...

96
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:24.588
kind of stir up are the lowest people that don't want to do the research and don't want to watch an entire video and they just judge from a 30 second clip.

97
00:03:24.628 --> 00:03:28.671
And I think that's part of the issue right now is the people on the fringe,

98
00:03:28.672 --> 00:03:29.812
because let's be honest,

99
00:03:29.872 --> 00:03:31.313
there's fringe people on the right,

100
00:03:31.333 --> 00:03:33.155
there's fringe on the left in between,

101
00:03:33.535 --> 00:03:35.076
and they typically get,

102
00:03:35.917 --> 00:03:37.078
they suck the air out of the room.

103
00:03:37.098 --> 00:03:38.779
They get the most airtime,

104
00:03:39.019 --> 00:03:39.300
you know,

105
00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:40.641
they're the loudest voices.

106
00:03:41.081 --> 00:03:44.444
And then they become the representation of the entire

107
00:03:44.804 --> 00:03:47.346
right or the entire left or the entire middle.

108
00:03:48.007 --> 00:03:53.612
And the reality of it is the most of the country does fall in the middle.

109
00:03:54.452 --> 00:03:58.856
But those are the people that kind of suck all the air out of the room and then everybody just falls under,

110
00:03:59.697 --> 00:03:59.917
okay,

111
00:03:59.957 --> 00:04:00.858
you're left or right.

112
00:04:00.878 --> 00:04:04.200
So you must think that way or you must think the other way.

113
00:04:04.581 --> 00:04:07.383
And it's all about identity at that point.

114
00:04:07.903 --> 00:04:09.084
It's even coming from,

115
00:04:09.385 --> 00:04:13.148
I watched Charlie Kirk's funeral service in Phoenix and

116
00:04:14.236 --> 00:04:15.117
What Erica Kirk,

117
00:04:15.737 --> 00:04:16.938
I don't know what she's made of.

118
00:04:17.238 --> 00:04:17.859
It's not human.

119
00:04:17.860 --> 00:04:17.979
Yeah,

120
00:04:17.999 --> 00:04:18.840
it's insane.

121
00:04:18.900 --> 00:04:19.140
Right?

122
00:04:19.380 --> 00:04:25.645
Like to go through and process the shock and horror of what happened in such a violent way.

123
00:04:25.705 --> 00:04:26.665
He was assassinated.

124
00:04:26.866 --> 00:04:30.048
And for her to get up and forgive that young man.

125
00:04:31.732 --> 00:04:32.533
And so quickly,

126
00:04:33.013 --> 00:04:33.213
too.

127
00:04:33.513 --> 00:04:33.854
I mean,

128
00:04:34.514 --> 00:04:35.976
as a person of faith myself,

129
00:04:36.016 --> 00:04:36.236
I mean,

130
00:04:36.276 --> 00:04:41.561
that's something I believe you can't do without some sort of religious faith based,

131
00:04:41.601 --> 00:04:41.901
you know,

132
00:04:42.182 --> 00:04:43.483
true belief in your heart.

133
00:04:43.803 --> 00:04:43.983
Because,

134
00:04:43.984 --> 00:04:44.104
yeah,

135
00:04:44.144 --> 00:04:44.864
that was incredible,

136
00:04:45.004 --> 00:04:49.148
incredible to watch and also incredible just to see the reactions to it.

137
00:04:49.869 --> 00:04:50.890
So much good,

138
00:04:51.010 --> 00:04:53.673
but also a lot of visceral reaction.

139
00:04:53.733 --> 00:04:53.853
And,

140
00:04:53.893 --> 00:04:54.033
oh,

141
00:04:54.073 --> 00:04:55.334
it was a Trump rally.

142
00:04:56.211 --> 00:04:56.491
You know,

143
00:04:56.571 --> 00:04:57.591
a lot of just ignorance,

144
00:04:57.592 --> 00:04:57.771
you know,

145
00:04:57.772 --> 00:04:58.892
people that don't understand.

146
00:04:58.932 --> 00:04:59.192
I mean,

147
00:04:59.212 --> 00:05:01.833
if you watch any Turning Point event,

148
00:05:01.973 --> 00:05:03.573
it's kind of those are their staples,

149
00:05:03.574 --> 00:05:04.493
the fireworks,

150
00:05:04.494 --> 00:05:04.973
the things.

151
00:05:05.033 --> 00:05:08.414
And they were trying to pay tribute to how he would have wanted it,

152
00:05:08.415 --> 00:05:08.734
you know.

153
00:05:09.175 --> 00:05:09.395
I mean,

154
00:05:09.435 --> 00:05:10.815
I want fireworks at my funeral.

155
00:05:11.435 --> 00:05:13.036
I want fireworks celebrations.

156
00:05:13.037 --> 00:05:18.297
I think anybody would wish to have their funeral in a giant stadium with 100,000 people.

157
00:05:18.457 --> 00:05:18.597
And,

158
00:05:19.177 --> 00:05:19.477
you know,

159
00:05:19.998 --> 00:05:20.938
and look what it caused,

160
00:05:20.939 --> 00:05:21.978
a huge revival.

161
00:05:22.098 --> 00:05:24.779
And I think a lot of important discussions.

162
00:05:25.311 --> 00:05:28.012
are being had in between all the nastiness,

163
00:05:28.572 --> 00:05:34.714
which is good that people are starting to talk more about those things and about uniting and what brings us together.

164
00:05:35.954 --> 00:05:39.815
It's just a shame that the divisiveness gets more of the airtime,

165
00:05:39.835 --> 00:05:40.295
if you will.

166
00:05:41.936 --> 00:05:42.376
What sucked,

167
00:05:42.796 --> 00:05:51.038
the part that got me that I didn't like about that day was she gets up and does her thing and is literally baring her soul.

168
00:05:51.098 --> 00:05:53.039
Like she's praying beforehand for strength.

169
00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:53.299
And like,

170
00:05:53.300 --> 00:05:54.499
you could tell she's talking to Charlie.

171
00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:54.759
Oh,

172
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:55.019
yeah.

173
00:05:55.020 --> 00:05:55.279
It was.

174
00:05:55.380 --> 00:05:58.842
And it was totally one of the most powerful speaking,

175
00:05:59.002 --> 00:06:01.724
speaking engagements I've ever seen in my entire life.

176
00:06:01.944 --> 00:06:02.505
Yeah.

177
00:06:02.506 --> 00:06:03.485
And Trump gets up and says,

178
00:06:03.545 --> 00:06:04.386
I hate my enemies.

179
00:06:04.466 --> 00:06:05.387
I can't forgive.

180
00:06:05.767 --> 00:06:06.067
I'm like,

181
00:06:06.187 --> 00:06:06.307
no,

182
00:06:07.128 --> 00:06:07.448
I know.

183
00:06:08.189 --> 00:06:13.272
And as somebody who has supported Trump and that was a moment where I was like,

184
00:06:13.392 --> 00:06:14.093
oh,

185
00:06:14.113 --> 00:06:14.253
yeah,

186
00:06:14.553 --> 00:06:16.975
that was not I was not a Trump guy.

187
00:06:17.275 --> 00:06:17.435
Yeah.

188
00:06:17.495 --> 00:06:18.656
At that at that moment,

189
00:06:18.896 --> 00:06:19.737
I didn't like it either.

190
00:06:19.757 --> 00:06:22.579
And I will fully admit that I just thought it was.

191
00:06:23.411 --> 00:06:27.513
And I get because when she was touching on like the biblical aspect of,

192
00:06:27.553 --> 00:06:27.873
you know,

193
00:06:28.353 --> 00:06:29.354
we are the shield,

194
00:06:29.394 --> 00:06:30.975
the government's the sword.

195
00:06:31.015 --> 00:06:31.315
You know,

196
00:06:31.475 --> 00:06:35.236
I thought it was beautiful when she talked about not wanting his blood on his ledger.

197
00:06:35.317 --> 00:06:36.797
Like that's the government's job.

198
00:06:37.217 --> 00:06:37.878
But it was like,

199
00:06:37.938 --> 00:06:38.138
yeah,

200
00:06:38.498 --> 00:06:39.638
we could have saved that for.

201
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:41.659
I get what he was getting at.

202
00:06:41.699 --> 00:06:42.920
And that's very Trump.

203
00:06:43.000 --> 00:06:43.620
But it's like,

204
00:06:44.040 --> 00:06:45.741
do that at a press conference.

205
00:06:45.861 --> 00:06:49.023
Not on stage.

206
00:06:49.887 --> 00:06:51.048
I guess that's Trump for you.

207
00:06:51.049 --> 00:06:52.929
You never know what he's going to say.

208
00:06:52.930 --> 00:06:53.769
He goes off script,

209
00:06:54.069 --> 00:06:55.570
and I'm sure that was not,

210
00:06:56.231 --> 00:06:56.511
you know,

211
00:06:56.671 --> 00:06:57.391
on the prompter,

212
00:06:57.471 --> 00:06:58.892
on the teleprompter for him to read.

213
00:06:58.912 --> 00:06:59.032
Oh,

214
00:06:59.052 --> 00:06:59.433
I'm sure.

215
00:06:59.793 --> 00:07:01.073
And again,

216
00:07:01.534 --> 00:07:02.274
for the most part,

217
00:07:02.334 --> 00:07:03.315
I think he's doing well.

218
00:07:03.375 --> 00:07:04.175
But when he did that,

219
00:07:04.235 --> 00:07:04.515
I'm like,

220
00:07:04.676 --> 00:07:04.816
no,

221
00:07:05.016 --> 00:07:05.256
dude,

222
00:07:05.656 --> 00:07:07.357
we need to be brought together right now.

223
00:07:07.557 --> 00:07:07.697
Yeah,

224
00:07:07.817 --> 00:07:09.318
and in those times,

225
00:07:09.319 --> 00:07:10.539
you have to be very,

226
00:07:10.699 --> 00:07:14.161
very aware of those words because you're right.

227
00:07:14.901 --> 00:07:15.802
You are the president.

228
00:07:16.002 --> 00:07:17.343
We need to be brought together.

229
00:07:18.003 --> 00:07:19.644
So when in one turn everyone's saying,

230
00:07:19.684 --> 00:07:19.804
oh,

231
00:07:19.805 --> 00:07:20.845
we need to be united.

232
00:07:20.905 --> 00:07:21.826
Let's come together.

233
00:07:22.006 --> 00:07:22.967
And then you get up and say,

234
00:07:23.027 --> 00:07:24.267
I hate my enemies.

235
00:07:24.308 --> 00:07:25.208
Let's go after them.

236
00:07:25.749 --> 00:07:25.909
Yeah,

237
00:07:26.309 --> 00:07:28.530
it's a twisted message and it's not a good look.

238
00:07:30.052 --> 00:07:33.454
What's that send to the fringe left and the fringe right?

239
00:07:33.874 --> 00:07:34.375
Exactly.

240
00:07:35.055 --> 00:07:37.517
When Trump gets up after Erica Kirk says,

241
00:07:37.617 --> 00:07:41.780
I forgive the young man that assassinated my husband.

242
00:07:41.960 --> 00:07:42.120
Yeah.

243
00:07:42.460 --> 00:07:44.602
And then the leader of the free world gets up and goes,

244
00:07:44.962 --> 00:07:45.622
I can't do that.

245
00:07:45.662 --> 00:07:46.323
I hate my enemy.

246
00:07:46.643 --> 00:07:46.783
Well,

247
00:07:47.143 --> 00:07:47.823
and if anything,

248
00:07:47.824 --> 00:07:49.304
it made me frustrated because I'm like,

249
00:07:49.305 --> 00:07:51.124
you just gave them a perfect soundbite,

250
00:07:51.164 --> 00:07:52.045
a perfect clip.

251
00:07:52.245 --> 00:07:54.085
They're going to roll that over and over again.

252
00:07:54.105 --> 00:07:55.746
They're going to roll that in the midterms.

253
00:07:56.226 --> 00:07:57.606
And you have to think about those things,

254
00:07:57.666 --> 00:07:57.806
too,

255
00:07:57.846 --> 00:07:58.926
which I think at this point,

256
00:07:59.127 --> 00:07:59.367
you know,

257
00:07:59.407 --> 00:08:01.587
he's in his last couple of years.

258
00:08:01.627 --> 00:08:03.388
He's just hands off,

259
00:08:03.448 --> 00:08:03.728
you know,

260
00:08:04.588 --> 00:08:05.588
balls to the walls.

261
00:08:06.189 --> 00:08:07.049
Doesn't really care.

262
00:08:07.169 --> 00:08:07.329
But,

263
00:08:07.389 --> 00:08:07.549
yeah,

264
00:08:07.729 --> 00:08:10.890
you have to pay attention to those moments when millions of people,

265
00:08:11.030 --> 00:08:11.950
especially young people,

266
00:08:11.951 --> 00:08:14.571
because that was Turning Point's whole and Charlie's whole.

267
00:08:15.083 --> 00:08:15.543
Thing was,

268
00:08:15.603 --> 00:08:15.864
you know,

269
00:08:16.364 --> 00:08:20.327
the young people and influencing them because they are so easily influenced.

270
00:08:20.808 --> 00:08:20.988
J.D.

271
00:08:21.088 --> 00:08:22.149
Vance wouldn't have said that.

272
00:08:22.529 --> 00:08:22.669
Yeah.

273
00:08:22.889 --> 00:08:23.029
J.D.

274
00:08:23.110 --> 00:08:23.970
Vance didn't say that.

275
00:08:23.971 --> 00:08:24.090
No,

276
00:08:24.091 --> 00:08:24.531
he didn't.

277
00:08:24.991 --> 00:08:25.271
You know.

278
00:08:25.632 --> 00:08:27.153
Marco Rubio didn't say that.

279
00:08:27.753 --> 00:08:27.873
Yeah.

280
00:08:27.973 --> 00:08:29.535
Can we talk for a second about Marco Rubio?

281
00:08:29.555 --> 00:08:29.735
Yeah,

282
00:08:29.875 --> 00:08:30.315
he's great.

283
00:08:30.596 --> 00:08:30.916
I mean,

284
00:08:31.256 --> 00:08:31.376
oh,

285
00:08:31.496 --> 00:08:32.257
my God.

286
00:08:32.357 --> 00:08:33.818
My family is originally from Florida.

287
00:08:33.838 --> 00:08:33.958
So,

288
00:08:34.058 --> 00:08:34.299
you know,

289
00:08:34.339 --> 00:08:35.219
big Florida people.

290
00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:36.260
I'm a Florida guy.

291
00:08:36.420 --> 00:08:40.884
I just remember him in the debates getting crushed by Trump.

292
00:08:41.144 --> 00:08:41.685
Little Marco.

293
00:08:41.885 --> 00:08:42.045
Yeah.

294
00:08:42.085 --> 00:08:42.565
And it was like,

295
00:08:42.605 --> 00:08:43.406
just come on,

296
00:08:43.486 --> 00:08:43.686
Trump.

297
00:08:44.107 --> 00:08:44.447
And then

298
00:08:44.927 --> 00:08:45.507
He gives them,

299
00:08:45.527 --> 00:08:46.928
now he's got more jobs than a Jamaican.

300
00:08:46.929 --> 00:08:46.988
Oh,

301
00:08:46.989 --> 00:08:47.168
yeah.

302
00:08:47.228 --> 00:08:48.329
He's got 15 different jobs.

303
00:08:48.330 --> 00:08:49.009
He's a good guy.

304
00:08:49.010 --> 00:08:50.450
I love all the memes that are always,

305
00:08:50.650 --> 00:08:50.770
oh,

306
00:08:50.870 --> 00:08:50.990
no,

307
00:08:51.130 --> 00:08:51.991
I'm going to.

308
00:08:51.992 --> 00:08:52.931
I'm now going to be this.

309
00:08:52.991 --> 00:08:53.912
I'm now going to be this,

310
00:08:53.992 --> 00:08:55.353
which is hilarious.

311
00:08:55.613 --> 00:08:56.153
It was like,

312
00:08:56.193 --> 00:08:56.333
oh,

313
00:08:56.373 --> 00:08:58.274
he's now going to host Jimmy Kimmel Live.

314
00:08:58.835 --> 00:08:59.215
Yes.

315
00:08:59.655 --> 00:08:59.975
Yes.

316
00:09:00.075 --> 00:09:00.435
Which I,

317
00:09:00.836 --> 00:09:02.216
and that's all.

318
00:09:02.496 --> 00:09:03.857
And I want to talk about Kimmel with you.

319
00:09:04.778 --> 00:09:05.238
I just,

320
00:09:05.758 --> 00:09:07.979
Rubio is someone that has come.

321
00:09:07.999 --> 00:09:08.180
I mean,

322
00:09:08.540 --> 00:09:09.540
everyone loves him in Florida.

323
00:09:09.860 --> 00:09:09.981
Yeah.

324
00:09:10.221 --> 00:09:10.441
Right.

325
00:09:10.821 --> 00:09:11.221
Solid.

326
00:09:12.102 --> 00:09:14.603
But now he's on a global stage and kicking it.

327
00:09:14.743 --> 00:09:15.164
But yeah,

328
00:09:15.204 --> 00:09:17.547
I think that's probably one of the,

329
00:09:17.988 --> 00:09:19.850
if not the best appointments that were made.

330
00:09:19.851 --> 00:09:20.111
Agreed.

331
00:09:20.714 --> 00:09:21.174
And I mean,

332
00:09:21.175 --> 00:09:22.515
100 percent of the Senate.

333
00:09:22.535 --> 00:09:22.755
I mean,

334
00:09:22.756 --> 00:09:23.576
that never happens.

335
00:09:23.596 --> 00:09:24.637
They all voted for him.

336
00:09:24.957 --> 00:09:26.398
So that that shows you something.

337
00:09:26.399 --> 00:09:29.960
They clearly like him and he clearly is able to reach across the aisles.

338
00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:33.703
I just he is the biggest win in the Trump cabinet,

339
00:09:33.903 --> 00:09:34.243
I think.

340
00:09:34.263 --> 00:09:37.325
And I I'm I'm a I'm a fan of Pete Hegseth.

341
00:09:37.326 --> 00:09:38.486
I'm a fan of Colton Gabbard.

342
00:09:39.086 --> 00:09:39.767
I'm a fan of J.D.

343
00:09:39.867 --> 00:09:40.187
Vance.

344
00:09:40.188 --> 00:09:40.768
Me too.

345
00:09:40.769 --> 00:09:42.008
I'm a fan of RFK Jr.

346
00:09:42.009 --> 00:09:42.148
Yeah.

347
00:09:43.069 --> 00:09:43.289
You know,

348
00:09:43.290 --> 00:09:45.291
they just talked today and they had Pfizer.

349
00:09:45.391 --> 00:09:45.711
Come on.

350
00:09:45.751 --> 00:09:46.271
You see that?

351
00:09:46.471 --> 00:09:46.591
Yeah,

352
00:09:47.212 --> 00:09:50.374
and I think the part of all that too that always gets missed is like,

353
00:09:50.414 --> 00:09:54.357
Like these aren't conservative right wing Republicans.

354
00:09:54.457 --> 00:09:55.378
These are all people,

355
00:09:55.398 --> 00:09:56.339
a literal Kennedy.

356
00:09:56.479 --> 00:09:59.261
You have Tulsi from Hawaii,

357
00:09:59.441 --> 00:10:00.202
the most blue,

358
00:10:00.282 --> 00:10:00.482
blue,

359
00:10:00.542 --> 00:10:01.923
blue area you could get.

360
00:10:02.063 --> 00:10:02.264
And

361
00:10:02.964 --> 00:10:04.906
I feel like that always gets lost in the sauce,

362
00:10:04.966 --> 00:10:05.106
too,

363
00:10:05.146 --> 00:10:05.566
these days.

364
00:10:05.606 --> 00:10:08.429
It's like we talk about unity and I'm like,

365
00:10:08.449 --> 00:10:09.990
this is the most diverse,

366
00:10:10.250 --> 00:10:10.951
unified,

367
00:10:11.471 --> 00:10:12.972
mixed administration.

368
00:10:13.092 --> 00:10:15.834
You have people of all different ethnicities,

369
00:10:15.894 --> 00:10:17.236
people who were Democrats,

370
00:10:17.237 --> 00:10:18.336
who were independents.

371
00:10:18.356 --> 00:10:19.918
You have lots of gay people.

372
00:10:20.238 --> 00:10:20.478
You know,

373
00:10:20.958 --> 00:10:24.019
and that never gets pointed or talked about because,

374
00:10:24.099 --> 00:10:24.379
you know,

375
00:10:24.459 --> 00:10:26.200
they are next to their names now.

376
00:10:26.280 --> 00:10:26.440
Yeah.

377
00:10:26.880 --> 00:10:27.560
Scott Bethan.

378
00:10:27.700 --> 00:10:28.700
Love him.

379
00:10:28.701 --> 00:10:29.661
He's wonderful.

380
00:10:29.761 --> 00:10:30.641
And he's probably,

381
00:10:30.681 --> 00:10:30.821
yeah,

382
00:10:31.001 --> 00:10:32.281
probably the best we've ever had.

383
00:10:32.841 --> 00:10:37.143
A guy so smart and so articulate and just lays it down.

384
00:10:37.183 --> 00:10:37.803
He's amazing.

385
00:10:38.183 --> 00:10:38.583
It is.

386
00:10:40.143 --> 00:10:45.685
If you look at an anti-DEI cabinet of people that have been appointed by merit.

387
00:10:45.885 --> 00:10:46.125
Right.

388
00:10:46.845 --> 00:10:48.206
That's what Trump's cabinet is.

389
00:10:48.207 --> 00:10:49.886
And it's still diverse.

390
00:10:50.698 --> 00:10:51.498
It's still diverse.

391
00:10:51.499 --> 00:10:51.979
What a shock.

392
00:10:52.219 --> 00:10:55.440
Without having to say those things ahead of time.

393
00:10:55.580 --> 00:10:57.701
I am going to appoint a gay person.

394
00:10:57.901 --> 00:10:59.902
Like saying those ahead of time,

395
00:10:59.922 --> 00:11:00.542
you're just saying,

396
00:11:01.023 --> 00:11:05.044
you're basically saying you're doing it because it's a DEI pick and you want to be,

397
00:11:05.785 --> 00:11:06.525
make a statement.

398
00:11:06.565 --> 00:11:08.086
It's lip service to the constituency.

399
00:11:08.886 --> 00:11:09.867
I think that's all it is.

400
00:11:10.147 --> 00:11:10.607
You know what?

401
00:11:10.647 --> 00:11:11.947
That's not how you get the best.

402
00:11:12.028 --> 00:11:13.408
Look at the last administration.

403
00:11:14.168 --> 00:11:17.430
It was all DEI hires and we got stuck with a lot of.

404
00:11:18.318 --> 00:11:33.965
hot mess chaos awful i mean i i was i was and i get caught up rogan has a thing he's talked about where over 50 of the comments you see online are bots yeah and it's china it's north korea it's russia trying

405
00:11:33.966 --> 00:11:45.950
to incite divisiveness yeah with us to get us all fired up yeah and it works it works totally works i mean i i now have stepped back from commenting i used to comment on everything yeah

406
00:11:46.250 --> 00:11:51.031
And now I've really stepped back from that because I'm looking and here's an egg for a profile photo.

407
00:11:51.211 --> 00:11:51.451
Right.

408
00:11:51.631 --> 00:11:52.772
Or some like pixelated photo.

409
00:11:52.773 --> 00:11:54.372
That has one post.

410
00:11:54.612 --> 00:11:55.272
They have one post.

411
00:11:55.273 --> 00:11:56.033
No engagement.

412
00:11:56.153 --> 00:11:56.753
No followers.

413
00:11:56.754 --> 00:11:57.533
They're following nobody.

414
00:11:58.073 --> 00:11:58.513
And they're like,

415
00:11:58.593 --> 00:11:59.494
blah,

416
00:11:59.754 --> 00:12:00.454
And I used to like,

417
00:12:00.674 --> 00:12:00.794
blah,

418
00:12:00.814 --> 00:12:00.934
blah,

419
00:12:00.935 --> 00:12:01.114
blah,

420
00:12:01.115 --> 00:12:01.514
right back.

421
00:12:01.515 --> 00:12:02.114
But now I'm just like,

422
00:12:02.115 --> 00:12:02.474
you know what?

423
00:12:02.614 --> 00:12:04.255
That's an LLM.

424
00:12:05.855 --> 00:12:06.435
That's AI.

425
00:12:06.856 --> 00:12:08.196
Or there's even just people,

426
00:12:08.496 --> 00:12:10.717
or I guess if you can even call them influencers,

427
00:12:10.797 --> 00:12:15.238
that's all they do is like that rage engagement to like shit post.

428
00:12:15.318 --> 00:12:15.458
in.

429
00:12:15.838 --> 00:12:18.040
gets you to start those long arguments.

430
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:18.480
Meanwhile,

431
00:12:18.500 --> 00:12:19.200
they're watching their,

432
00:12:19.621 --> 00:12:19.881
you know,

433
00:12:19.921 --> 00:12:20.701
they're making that money,

434
00:12:20.782 --> 00:12:23.123
and the dollars are coming in because you're just fighting with them.

435
00:12:23.343 --> 00:12:24.044
They're making the killing.

436
00:12:24.184 --> 00:12:24.304
And

437
00:12:26.105 --> 00:12:27.086
I watched today

438
00:12:27.606 --> 00:12:28.327
Pete Hegseth,

439
00:12:29.047 --> 00:12:29.688
Secretary of

440
00:12:30.048 --> 00:12:31.709
War, gets up and says,

441
00:12:32.089 --> 00:12:35.452
there's now going to be fitness testing for everybody.

442
00:12:35.672 --> 00:12:35.792
Yeah.

443
00:12:35.932 --> 00:12:36.953
Even the fat general.

444
00:12:37.233 --> 00:12:37.673
And they said,

445
00:12:37.713 --> 00:12:39.695
why are you calling all these generals from all over the place?

446
00:12:39.935 --> 00:12:40.095
Well,

447
00:12:40.115 --> 00:12:40.956
he fat shamed them.

448
00:12:41.036 --> 00:12:41.156
Yeah,

449
00:12:41.176 --> 00:12:41.516
he did.

450
00:12:41.796 --> 00:12:42.096
He did.

451
00:12:42.156 --> 00:12:42.637
And you know what?

452
00:12:42.717 --> 00:12:42.877
Good.

453
00:12:43.077 --> 00:12:43.437
He should.

454
00:12:44.078 --> 00:12:44.318
And

455
00:12:44.614 --> 00:12:45.875
But you go into the comments.

456
00:12:45.876 --> 00:12:45.995
Now,

457
00:12:45.996 --> 00:12:46.455
of course,

458
00:12:46.855 --> 00:12:48.876
if it's NBC's TikTok,

459
00:12:48.996 --> 00:12:52.958
you know what you're going to get in the comments ahead of time compared to Fox or whoever else.

460
00:12:53.018 --> 00:12:55.619
And most of the number one thing was,

461
00:12:55.839 --> 00:12:55.959
well,

462
00:12:55.960 --> 00:12:56.739
what about this guy?

463
00:12:56.799 --> 00:13:00.181
Picture of Trump playing golf with a muffin top and everything else,

464
00:13:00.182 --> 00:13:01.081
which to me,

465
00:13:01.441 --> 00:13:02.281
he's commander in chief.

466
00:13:03.202 --> 00:13:03.622
You know what?

467
00:13:03.682 --> 00:13:04.782
He's 79 years old.

468
00:13:05.063 --> 00:13:05.263
Well,

469
00:13:05.363 --> 00:13:05.643
right.

470
00:13:06.103 --> 00:13:10.245
The commander in chief position is a title given to the because you're the president.

471
00:13:10.246 --> 00:13:11.205
You oversee that.

472
00:13:11.365 --> 00:13:12.966
You are a member.

473
00:13:13.494 --> 00:13:14.434
of the military.

474
00:13:14.714 --> 00:13:16.035
You're not an active duty.

475
00:13:16.615 --> 00:13:20.576
And if you're the leadership of our soldiers that are supposed to go to war,

476
00:13:20.956 --> 00:13:22.197
you should be the example,

477
00:13:22.317 --> 00:13:24.358
which means you should be in tip-top shape.

478
00:13:25.118 --> 00:13:26.278
Pete Hegseth is now saying,

479
00:13:26.698 --> 00:13:27.279
everybody,

480
00:13:27.499 --> 00:13:28.199
everybody,

481
00:13:28.539 --> 00:13:29.139
twice a year,

482
00:13:29.959 --> 00:13:33.200
you're going to go through a physical fitness test and you don't height and weight.

483
00:13:33.941 --> 00:13:34.421
Excellent.

484
00:13:34.901 --> 00:13:35.281
Yes.

485
00:13:35.461 --> 00:13:36.201
Better them than me.

486
00:13:37.982 --> 00:13:38.663
Better them than me.

487
00:13:38.823 --> 00:13:40.204
But that's what you would expect.

488
00:13:40.644 --> 00:13:42.926
I wouldn't go into a field like a military,

489
00:13:43.026 --> 00:13:43.607
police,

490
00:13:43.927 --> 00:13:46.349
firefighter and not expect that.

491
00:13:47.430 --> 00:13:48.031
You go in.

492
00:13:49.071 --> 00:13:51.213
You got to be able to carry my ass out of a building,

493
00:13:51.273 --> 00:13:51.534
okay?

494
00:13:52.214 --> 00:13:53.155
On 6th Avenue,

495
00:13:53.156 --> 00:13:53.695
220.

496
00:13:54.016 --> 00:13:54.976
It's bananas.

497
00:13:56.858 --> 00:13:58.039
But I'm looking in the comments,

498
00:13:58.379 --> 00:13:58.579
right?

499
00:13:59.060 --> 00:14:03.784
And most of them are talking about Pete Hegseth is an alcoholic.

500
00:14:04.164 --> 00:14:04.605
And he's a drug addict.

501
00:14:04.606 --> 00:14:06.126
Or they always want his tattoos.

502
00:14:06.550 --> 00:14:11.306
Or he's a white supremacist because he has we the people tattooed on him.

503
00:14:12.149 --> 00:14:12.450
Okay.

504
00:14:12.691 --> 00:14:13.032
I'm like,

505
00:14:13.212 --> 00:14:13.493
that's.

506
00:14:14.580 --> 00:14:16.741
the document of our country,

507
00:14:17.041 --> 00:14:17.321
you know,

508
00:14:17.481 --> 00:14:17.661
like,

509
00:14:17.662 --> 00:14:19.101
I can't or yeah,

510
00:14:19.261 --> 00:14:21.302
something which that's a whole nother topic.

511
00:14:21.342 --> 00:14:24.003
It's like anything patriotic is now like racist.

512
00:14:24.083 --> 00:14:24.323
And,

513
00:14:24.483 --> 00:14:24.803
you know,

514
00:14:25.363 --> 00:14:25.483
well,

515
00:14:25.484 --> 00:14:26.343
the American flag.

516
00:14:26.683 --> 00:14:26.803
Yeah,

517
00:14:27.103 --> 00:14:28.704
because it's now they say it's MAGA.

518
00:14:28.864 --> 00:14:28.984
Yeah.

519
00:14:29.244 --> 00:14:31.665
Which is what make America great again.

520
00:14:31.725 --> 00:14:36.846
I literally have been working at an apartment complex and a resident complained to the manager.

521
00:14:36.866 --> 00:14:43.328
I have a white vinyl American flag sticker on my car and they complained and said it was racist.

522
00:14:43.796 --> 00:14:44.777
Because it was all white.

523
00:14:45.217 --> 00:14:45.777
And I was like,

524
00:14:45.817 --> 00:14:46.858
I don't know if that's a thing.

525
00:14:47.098 --> 00:14:48.119
I don't think it's a thing.

526
00:14:48.159 --> 00:14:48.980
I've never heard of it.

527
00:14:48.981 --> 00:14:50.341
It's just American flag.

528
00:14:51.501 --> 00:14:52.742
But even something like that,

529
00:14:52.802 --> 00:14:58.866
like a sticker on a car triggered somebody to go talk to my manager and say they have a racist,

530
00:14:58.967 --> 00:14:59.227
you know,

531
00:14:59.387 --> 00:14:59.647
sticker.

532
00:14:59.667 --> 00:14:59.987
I'm like,

533
00:15:00.307 --> 00:15:00.828
it's I'm like,

534
00:15:00.829 --> 00:15:00.948
oh,

535
00:15:00.949 --> 00:15:02.429
that's on my American flag.

536
00:15:02.849 --> 00:15:04.851
I do have a sticker that says socialism sucks,

537
00:15:04.852 --> 00:15:06.151
but they didn't point out that one.

538
00:15:06.171 --> 00:15:07.652
But it was the American flag.

539
00:15:07.833 --> 00:15:08.433
Did you take it down?

540
00:15:08.933 --> 00:15:09.053
No,

541
00:15:09.234 --> 00:15:09.854
I would never.

542
00:15:10.234 --> 00:15:11.495
I love my American flag.

543
00:15:12.116 --> 00:15:12.656
I'm proud of.

544
00:15:12.876 --> 00:15:13.416
this country,

545
00:15:13.897 --> 00:15:14.177
you know,

546
00:15:14.477 --> 00:15:18.619
and I don't think it should ever be seen as a hate symbol or anything negative.

547
00:15:19.300 --> 00:15:21.161
Look what's going on in the UK right now.

548
00:15:21.361 --> 00:15:21.881
Yeah.

549
00:15:22.281 --> 00:15:22.742
It's illegal.

550
00:15:23.182 --> 00:15:23.322
Yeah.

551
00:15:23.782 --> 00:15:25.863
It's illegal to buy the flag,

552
00:15:25.963 --> 00:15:26.924
to fly the Union Jack.

553
00:15:27.164 --> 00:15:28.725
To have pride where you're from.

554
00:15:29.185 --> 00:15:30.866
With Scottish flag or the Irish flag.

555
00:15:31.126 --> 00:15:35.089
That is because it is inflammatory to the

556
00:15:35.869 --> 00:15:39.191
Muslims and the Indians and everyone else that and how they have moved in.

557
00:15:39.731 --> 00:15:41.172
They're so worried about...

558
00:15:41.332 --> 00:15:41.592
you know,

559
00:15:41.652 --> 00:15:43.493
protecting everyone else's culture.

560
00:15:43.813 --> 00:15:46.374
But what about the culture of these people,

561
00:15:46.434 --> 00:15:48.855
which I guess doesn't matter just because their skin is lighter.

562
00:15:48.955 --> 00:15:49.476
But you know,

563
00:15:49.536 --> 00:15:50.036
those people,

564
00:15:50.096 --> 00:15:51.156
we all have culture,

565
00:15:51.176 --> 00:15:52.177
we all have tradition,

566
00:15:52.217 --> 00:15:53.697
we all have things that are important.

567
00:15:54.258 --> 00:15:58.660
And I think that's part of that whole issue is a lot of these immigrants that are coming in,

568
00:15:58.680 --> 00:16:00.080
they don't want to assimilate,

569
00:16:00.100 --> 00:16:02.561
they don't want to respect our culture.

570
00:16:02.601 --> 00:16:08.884
But these weak minded liberal leaders are bending over backwards to respect theirs while sacrificing.

571
00:16:09.084 --> 00:16:10.465
the culture of their own people.

572
00:16:10.545 --> 00:16:12.085
And it's kind of crazy to watch.

573
00:16:12.566 --> 00:16:15.027
And I honestly think if Trump hadn't have won,

574
00:16:15.447 --> 00:16:16.247
love him or hate him,

575
00:16:17.128 --> 00:16:18.808
that's what would be happening right now.

576
00:16:18.828 --> 00:16:24.031
And that's what was happening under Biden with millions and millions of people undocumented,

577
00:16:24.071 --> 00:16:26.532
just flooding into our country.

578
00:16:27.212 --> 00:16:28.373
I think that's his biggest win.

579
00:16:28.613 --> 00:16:29.113
I mean,

580
00:16:29.114 --> 00:16:30.434
that's his biggest win is the,

581
00:16:30.634 --> 00:16:31.494
is the war on,

582
00:16:32.114 --> 00:16:32.234
on,

583
00:16:32.514 --> 00:16:32.635
on,

584
00:16:32.755 --> 00:16:33.575
on immigration,

585
00:16:34.195 --> 00:16:34.375
um,

586
00:16:34.615 --> 00:16:34.796
has,

587
00:16:35.076 --> 00:16:35.716
has been won.

588
00:16:36.136 --> 00:16:37.657
There's nobody coming to the southern border.

589
00:16:37.737 --> 00:16:40.738
And it just goes to show that something could have been done and it wasn't done.

590
00:16:40.878 --> 00:16:42.499
Because if you look at the numbers now,

591
00:16:42.739 --> 00:16:49.022
these people that were these reporters and that sat on the border for years and watched it.

592
00:16:49.042 --> 00:16:49.782
And now they're like,

593
00:16:50.002 --> 00:16:50.122
yeah,

594
00:16:50.182 --> 00:16:51.843
now we go down and no one's there.

595
00:16:52.103 --> 00:16:54.684
Or we see one or two people that get stopped immediately.

596
00:16:55.365 --> 00:16:55.905
So it's like,

597
00:16:55.965 --> 00:16:56.085
OK,

598
00:16:56.345 --> 00:16:59.307
so the whole time when you were telling us the borders closed,

599
00:16:59.767 --> 00:17:00.087
you know,

600
00:17:00.367 --> 00:17:02.248
something could have been done and you weren't doing it.

601
00:17:02.868 --> 00:17:04.909
And now we see that it is.

602
00:17:05.409 --> 00:17:05.930
I think that,

603
00:17:05.990 --> 00:17:06.350
yeah,

604
00:17:06.430 --> 00:17:07.311
for Trump right now,

605
00:17:07.611 --> 00:17:10.052
his biggest win is is the borders.

606
00:17:10.412 --> 00:17:12.193
The tariff thing has yet to play out.

607
00:17:12.714 --> 00:17:12.934
I mean,

608
00:17:13.054 --> 00:17:13.394
that one,

609
00:17:13.734 --> 00:17:14.815
you got to give that one time.

610
00:17:14.935 --> 00:17:15.135
Yeah,

611
00:17:15.675 --> 00:17:16.736
I think I'm all for it.

612
00:17:17.136 --> 00:17:17.336
But

613
00:17:17.796 --> 00:17:18.057
I mean,

614
00:17:18.317 --> 00:17:19.357
we've taken a hit here.

615
00:17:19.818 --> 00:17:19.958
Yeah.

616
00:17:20.098 --> 00:17:20.358
You know,

617
00:17:20.398 --> 00:17:22.039
Canadians hate us in Las Vegas.

618
00:17:22.059 --> 00:17:22.239
Right.

619
00:17:22.919 --> 00:17:23.179
You know,

620
00:17:23.180 --> 00:17:24.160
and we're so we're down.

621
00:17:24.161 --> 00:17:28.322
I think now it's like eight percent year over year with people coming in.

622
00:17:28.382 --> 00:17:29.023
It's slowing down.

623
00:17:29.063 --> 00:17:30.484
And it's so things are slowing down.

624
00:17:30.724 --> 00:17:31.024
and

625
00:17:31.636 --> 00:17:34.957
So we have to wait and see what happens with the tariffs.

626
00:17:35.678 --> 00:17:38.779
But back to the immigration thing,

627
00:17:38.859 --> 00:17:40.640
and it came out this week.

628
00:17:41.060 --> 00:17:47.042
There's somewhere in Michigan where the police chief is Muslim and the mayor is Muslim.

629
00:17:47.043 --> 00:17:48.403
I think it's like Dearborn or somewhere.

630
00:17:48.404 --> 00:17:48.523
Oh,

631
00:17:48.524 --> 00:17:48.683
yeah.

632
00:17:48.803 --> 00:17:49.943
Dearborn is a huge.

633
00:17:49.983 --> 00:17:50.224
That's

634
00:17:50.964 --> 00:17:51.764
Rashida Tlaib,

635
00:17:51.864 --> 00:17:52.504
congresswoman.

636
00:17:52.605 --> 00:17:52.865
Okay.

637
00:17:52.985 --> 00:17:53.645
Her district,

638
00:17:53.765 --> 00:17:54.005
right,

639
00:17:54.105 --> 00:17:55.866
which is heavily,

640
00:17:56.606 --> 00:18:00.308
I think it's something over 60%

641
00:18:00.568 --> 00:18:01.088
immigrant.

642
00:18:01.308 --> 00:18:01.929
Muslims,

643
00:18:02.009 --> 00:18:03.030
Palestinians.

644
00:18:03.330 --> 00:18:04.010
The same thing with

645
00:18:04.911 --> 00:18:06.873
Ilhan Omar's district in Minnesota.

646
00:18:07.013 --> 00:18:07.413
Yeah,

647
00:18:07.414 --> 00:18:07.533
yeah.

648
00:18:07.653 --> 00:18:07.974
I mean,

649
00:18:08.134 --> 00:18:08.955
at their rallies,

650
00:18:08.975 --> 00:18:10.516
they don't even speak English.

651
00:18:10.576 --> 00:18:12.498
They have Somalian flags.

652
00:18:12.538 --> 00:18:12.978
It's like,

653
00:18:13.518 --> 00:18:16.101
you wouldn't even think you were in America.

654
00:18:16.261 --> 00:18:16.821
Which to me,

655
00:18:17.342 --> 00:18:17.602
again,

656
00:18:18.543 --> 00:18:18.823
go ahead.

657
00:18:18.943 --> 00:18:19.063
Oh,

658
00:18:19.064 --> 00:18:21.145
I was just going to say even Governor Tim Walz,

659
00:18:21.185 --> 00:18:22.906
which thank God he's not our vice president.

660
00:18:22.907 --> 00:18:23.026
Oh,

661
00:18:23.086 --> 00:18:23.267
dear God.

662
00:18:23.268 --> 00:18:24.087
They changed the

663
00:18:24.588 --> 00:18:28.851
Minnesota state flag and it looks almost identical to the Somalian flag.

664
00:18:29.652 --> 00:18:30.172
So it's like,

665
00:18:30.192 --> 00:18:31.233
what are we doing here?

666
00:18:34.153 --> 00:18:46.517
I saw a clip of a woman come in and address either a city council or some government body and talk about how there are loudspeakers with call to prayer going off at five in the morning.

667
00:18:46.777 --> 00:18:46.917
Yeah.

668
00:18:47.618 --> 00:18:51.619
And they're all everyone on the city council are all Muslim.

669
00:18:51.719 --> 00:18:52.099
They're all like,

670
00:18:52.299 --> 00:18:52.459
yeah,

671
00:18:52.799 --> 00:18:53.499
what about it?

672
00:18:53.959 --> 00:18:54.980
But could you imagine if...

673
00:18:55.920 --> 00:19:01.166
if it was a Christian call to prayer or a Jewish call to prayer or something else being,

674
00:19:01.726 --> 00:19:01.966
you know,

675
00:19:02.047 --> 00:19:03.828
put on a loud speaker for the whole,

676
00:19:04.309 --> 00:19:04.429
no,

677
00:19:04.549 --> 00:19:04.930
it wouldn't,

678
00:19:04.970 --> 00:19:05.730
it wouldn't fly.

679
00:19:05.991 --> 00:19:06.511
We know it wouldn't.

680
00:19:06.512 --> 00:19:07.452
People lose their minds.

681
00:19:07.532 --> 00:19:07.712
Yeah.

682
00:19:07.973 --> 00:19:08.794
People lose their minds.

683
00:19:09.074 --> 00:19:10.796
And so I,

684
00:19:10.916 --> 00:19:13.378
I just think that it is,

685
00:19:13.639 --> 00:19:14.680
we have reached.

686
00:19:15.695 --> 00:19:24.438
There's just weak people in positions of strength that's happening now in pockets of the United States or all of California.

687
00:19:25.018 --> 00:19:25.638
Gavin Newsom,

688
00:19:26.118 --> 00:19:26.518
who is,

689
00:19:26.998 --> 00:19:27.298
to me,

690
00:19:28.479 --> 00:19:29.619
he's just not a good person.

691
00:19:30.859 --> 00:19:34.360
He's been auditioning for president for eight years.

692
00:19:34.440 --> 00:19:35.761
And has been trying forever.

693
00:19:36.521 --> 00:19:37.841
I hope he doesn't get in.

694
00:19:38.541 --> 00:19:39.822
But my God,

695
00:19:39.862 --> 00:19:40.182
Devin.

696
00:19:40.402 --> 00:19:41.002
I hope too,

697
00:19:41.082 --> 00:19:41.222
but

698
00:19:42.302 --> 00:19:43.783
I don't put anything past.

699
00:19:44.023 --> 00:19:44.143
No.

700
00:19:44.423 --> 00:19:45.584
Democrats at this point.

701
00:19:46.184 --> 00:19:50.948
I'm even worried about his whole congressional map that's supposed to be voted on November.

702
00:19:51.749 --> 00:19:56.193
It looks like it's going to pass like all of the polls say people are supporting it,

703
00:19:57.293 --> 00:20:01.697
which is wild because they're totally just scrambling up their state.

704
00:20:01.777 --> 00:20:02.057
Sorry.

705
00:20:02.918 --> 00:20:07.902
And they're not going to get a voice when before it was like an independent group that drew those lines.

706
00:20:07.903 --> 00:20:10.544
And now it's just a very Democrat ran state.

707
00:20:10.864 --> 00:20:13.647
So I don't blame the Republican states for doing the same thing.

708
00:20:14.815 --> 00:20:15.736
redrawing lines,

709
00:20:15.776 --> 00:20:17.777
which I think all in general is messy,

710
00:20:17.917 --> 00:20:19.177
but it's like,

711
00:20:19.297 --> 00:20:20.758
is that what we're going to do from now on?

712
00:20:20.778 --> 00:20:22.619
Just go back and forth in every state.

713
00:20:23.039 --> 00:20:23.279
I mean,

714
00:20:23.299 --> 00:20:30.102
we already have a census coming up in 2030 where everything's going to be redrawn and that's only in five years.

715
00:20:31.482 --> 00:20:31.942
It is.

716
00:20:32.122 --> 00:20:35.504
And we talk about the rhetoric and people have to dial down the rhetoric.

717
00:20:35.524 --> 00:20:35.644
No,

718
00:20:35.684 --> 00:20:35.964
they do.

719
00:20:36.284 --> 00:20:38.285
Yet he tweets this past week,

720
00:20:38.385 --> 00:20:38.725
Stephen,

721
00:20:38.885 --> 00:20:39.666
is it Stephen Miller?

722
00:20:39.766 --> 00:20:42.147
Stephen Miller is a fascist in all caps.

723
00:20:42.247 --> 00:20:42.447
Yeah.

724
00:20:42.627 --> 00:20:43.127
And it's like.

725
00:20:43.347 --> 00:20:46.789
It's just and it's not even two weeks after

726
00:20:47.590 --> 00:20:49.271
Charlie Kirk was assassinated.

727
00:20:49.711 --> 00:20:50.892
And what was on the bullet?

728
00:20:51.373 --> 00:20:52.573
The word fascist.

729
00:20:52.894 --> 00:20:55.896
It's like we got to step away from that and get those.

730
00:20:55.996 --> 00:20:58.137
But clearly that's not sticking to them.

731
00:20:58.257 --> 00:21:00.619
It's the same words over and over again.

732
00:21:01.379 --> 00:21:05.842
Every member of Congress on the far left is getting up and saying those same things.

733
00:21:05.902 --> 00:21:08.344
And I do wish that there was more people,

734
00:21:08.824 --> 00:21:11.086
those kind of middle of the road Democrats,

735
00:21:11.106 --> 00:21:12.247
because I know they exist.

736
00:21:12.527 --> 00:21:20.332
But I just think they're afraid to speak out against any of that to disrupt the far left and maybe lose donors or things.

737
00:21:21.173 --> 00:21:22.254
It's crazy though,

738
00:21:22.334 --> 00:21:22.654
Devin.

739
00:21:24.115 --> 00:21:24.936
I said this before.

740
00:21:24.956 --> 00:21:26.477
I have another podcast I do and

741
00:21:26.837 --> 00:21:27.437
I said it there.

742
00:21:27.457 --> 00:21:30.580
I'll say it again that everybody used to be labeled a narcissist.

743
00:21:31.100 --> 00:21:32.281
Everybody was a narcissist.

744
00:21:32.561 --> 00:21:32.701
Well,

745
00:21:32.741 --> 00:21:34.402
now everyone now is a fascist.

746
00:21:35.083 --> 00:21:37.785
And if you really are a student of history,

747
00:21:37.945 --> 00:21:38.785
if you look at

748
00:21:39.246 --> 00:21:40.967
Hitler, at Mussolini.

749
00:21:41.847 --> 00:21:42.967
Those were fascists.

750
00:21:43.067 --> 00:21:43.227
Yeah.

751
00:21:43.688 --> 00:21:43.828
And

752
00:21:44.668 --> 00:21:46.068
Trump, he's just not,

753
00:21:46.088 --> 00:21:48.629
he doesn't fit the definition of fascist.

754
00:21:48.630 --> 00:21:48.809
Well,

755
00:21:48.829 --> 00:21:49.589
it was like one of the,

756
00:21:50.270 --> 00:21:53.030
what did he say when they were doing the whole no kings thing?

757
00:21:53.370 --> 00:21:54.431
And he jokingly said,

758
00:21:54.471 --> 00:21:54.811
which was,

759
00:21:55.311 --> 00:21:56.151
he made a good point.

760
00:21:56.152 --> 00:21:56.391
He's like,

761
00:21:56.411 --> 00:21:57.212
if I was a king,

762
00:21:57.692 --> 00:22:03.293
I wouldn't be dealing with all these lawsuits and all this headache and things tied up within Congress.

763
00:22:04.294 --> 00:22:04.934
If I was king,

764
00:22:04.974 --> 00:22:07.695
I could just snap my fingers and what I say would go.

765
00:22:07.935 --> 00:22:08.555
So if it.

766
00:22:09.071 --> 00:22:11.493
The whole king and fascist and Nazi.

767
00:22:12.133 --> 00:22:13.174
And what's horrible,

768
00:22:13.214 --> 00:22:13.354
too,

769
00:22:13.355 --> 00:22:15.035
is those words don't have meaning anymore.

770
00:22:15.296 --> 00:22:16.196
The word racist,

771
00:22:16.197 --> 00:22:17.697
the word homophobic,

772
00:22:17.737 --> 00:22:18.958
the word fascist,

773
00:22:19.058 --> 00:22:19.418
Nazi.

774
00:22:19.539 --> 00:22:20.920
It's just they throw it around.

775
00:22:21.420 --> 00:22:23.862
And those are words that are heavy and have a lot of weight.

776
00:22:23.982 --> 00:22:25.703
And they carry a lot with them.

777
00:22:26.243 --> 00:22:30.647
But now they've been used so much to call everybody you disagree with.

778
00:22:31.107 --> 00:22:32.328
And now they don't have meaning.

779
00:22:33.609 --> 00:22:36.691
I put up a I was really pissed off.

780
00:22:37.011 --> 00:22:39.673
when I was sad and pissed off when Charlie Kirk was assassinated.

781
00:22:39.733 --> 00:22:40.054
And I,

782
00:22:41.335 --> 00:22:41.455
I,

783
00:22:42.015 --> 00:22:45.218
I took something from what Glenn Beck had posted.

784
00:22:45.258 --> 00:22:49.242
And he said that we all need to remember that Charlie Kirk was a civil rights leader.

785
00:22:49.262 --> 00:22:50.323
He wasn't a politician.

786
00:22:51.304 --> 00:22:51.584
You know,

787
00:22:51.644 --> 00:22:53.205
he wasn't a religious leader.

788
00:22:53.506 --> 00:22:54.847
He was a civil rights leader.

789
00:22:55.067 --> 00:22:55.267
Right.

790
00:22:55.427 --> 00:22:56.288
I posted that.

791
00:22:56.828 --> 00:22:59.371
And on threads of visceral.

792
00:22:59.931 --> 00:23:00.391
hatred.

793
00:23:01.092 --> 00:23:02.453
I was called a pedophile.

794
00:23:03.273 --> 00:23:04.594
I was called a fascist.

795
00:23:04.614 --> 00:23:05.754
I was called a racist.

796
00:23:05.774 --> 00:23:06.715
I was called a Nazi.

797
00:23:06.775 --> 00:23:07.756
And I took it down.

798
00:23:07.856 --> 00:23:07.976
Oh,

799
00:23:07.977 --> 00:23:09.036
they just went through the list.

800
00:23:09.457 --> 00:23:15.680
That's what their whole checklist of what to call someone that is someone on the right leaning or that likes Charlie Kirk.

801
00:23:15.681 --> 00:23:15.900
And I,

802
00:23:16.100 --> 00:23:18.942
I took it down for a few reasons,

803
00:23:19.482 --> 00:23:20.303
but I was like,

804
00:23:20.623 --> 00:23:21.063
what?

805
00:23:21.363 --> 00:23:21.624
Like,

806
00:23:22.244 --> 00:23:23.625
have you looked at any of my,

807
00:23:24.045 --> 00:23:25.025
Go online,

808
00:23:25.466 --> 00:23:26.907
look at any of my content.

809
00:23:27.047 --> 00:23:27.207
Yeah.

810
00:23:27.827 --> 00:23:32.449
I don't say anything that is fascist or racist or pedophile-like.

811
00:23:32.829 --> 00:23:41.113
And that was part of the whole issue was they're piecing and clipping all the clips of Charlie and they would only take a sentence out of it but not show you the whole interaction,

812
00:23:41.473 --> 00:23:41.833
you know.

813
00:23:42.773 --> 00:23:51.177
And that's part of the issue too is that we're taking clips and pieces and sound bites to fit the narrative they want instead of showing the whole truth.

814
00:23:51.497 --> 00:23:51.997
It is.

815
00:23:52.917 --> 00:23:54.238
We live in wild times,

816
00:23:54.418 --> 00:23:54.958
my friend.

817
00:23:55.198 --> 00:23:56.679
And it now takes

818
00:23:57.279 --> 00:24:00.442
more effort than ever to not get mad.

819
00:24:00.843 --> 00:24:01.023
Yeah.

820
00:24:01.263 --> 00:24:03.005
And to not have your blood boil.

821
00:24:03.045 --> 00:24:04.627
You really have to think,

822
00:24:04.667 --> 00:24:05.788
because I tell you,

823
00:24:05.789 --> 00:24:07.029
the amount of times I type stuff,

824
00:24:07.030 --> 00:24:07.269
I'm like,

825
00:24:07.270 --> 00:24:07.690
comments,

826
00:24:08.010 --> 00:24:08.851
and then I'm like,

827
00:24:08.951 --> 00:24:09.852
delete.

828
00:24:10.092 --> 00:24:10.873
But you always have to.

829
00:24:10.973 --> 00:24:11.133
Like,

830
00:24:11.153 --> 00:24:13.155
write it out first and then delete it.

831
00:24:13.315 --> 00:24:13.835
And you know what?

832
00:24:13.936 --> 00:24:15.077
What great advice is,

833
00:24:15.177 --> 00:24:16.138
go ahead and write it out.

834
00:24:16.358 --> 00:24:16.498
Yeah.

835
00:24:16.578 --> 00:24:17.279
Don't send it.

836
00:24:17.942 --> 00:24:20.324
Because sometimes it's cathartic just to keep it out.

837
00:24:20.325 --> 00:24:21.605
That's a good practice that people do,

838
00:24:21.885 --> 00:24:25.147
even keeping a journal or something and just writing those things down.

839
00:24:25.448 --> 00:24:25.628
Now,

840
00:24:25.948 --> 00:24:28.150
hopefully they're sane and normal.

841
00:24:28.190 --> 00:24:29.591
If you're thinking anything violent,

842
00:24:29.611 --> 00:24:30.211
go get help.

843
00:24:31.512 --> 00:24:34.194
But it does help to kind of get those things out or have someone,

844
00:24:34.595 --> 00:24:35.155
a sane,

845
00:24:35.736 --> 00:24:38.297
a good friend or someone that you can openly talk to,

846
00:24:38.558 --> 00:24:40.239
like having these conversations,

847
00:24:40.279 --> 00:24:41.140
which is important.

848
00:24:41.820 --> 00:24:44.102
And that's part of the problem because even I've lost a lot of...

849
00:24:44.490 --> 00:24:44.670
really,

850
00:24:44.750 --> 00:24:45.491
really good friends,

851
00:24:45.531 --> 00:24:46.972
people that were in my wedding,

852
00:24:47.152 --> 00:24:47.452
you know,

853
00:24:47.532 --> 00:24:54.156
that I just don't talk to me anymore because I became extreme or I became radicalized.

854
00:24:54.396 --> 00:24:54.957
And I'm like,

855
00:24:55.177 --> 00:24:55.977
I'm the same person.

856
00:24:56.077 --> 00:24:57.518
I've had these beliefs since

857
00:24:58.099 --> 00:24:58.799
I was,

858
00:24:59.299 --> 00:24:59.559
you know,

859
00:24:59.920 --> 00:25:00.780
before I could walk,

860
00:25:00.820 --> 00:25:02.942
before my mom started teaching me things.

861
00:25:02.982 --> 00:25:04.462
I pre-registered at 17.

862
00:25:04.523 --> 00:25:06.184
You've known me my whole life.

863
00:25:06.404 --> 00:25:08.545
And now all of a sudden I'm radical.

864
00:25:09.306 --> 00:25:09.606
I'm like,

865
00:25:09.826 --> 00:25:10.066
Be good.

866
00:25:10.182 --> 00:25:11.342
Because I voted for Trump.

867
00:25:11.382 --> 00:25:11.502
Well,

868
00:25:11.503 --> 00:25:13.763
I voted for him the last two times also.

869
00:25:14.483 --> 00:25:17.084
We talked during the 2016 administration.

870
00:25:17.464 --> 00:25:19.445
We talked when he lost in 2020,

871
00:25:19.865 --> 00:25:21.305
but now it's different somehow.

872
00:25:22.645 --> 00:25:24.546
I've preached to my daughter's 16.

873
00:25:24.986 --> 00:25:26.606
I have a stepdaughter who's almost 17.

874
00:25:26.646 --> 00:25:28.747
My daughter's 16 and my son is nine.

875
00:25:28.867 --> 00:25:35.989
And my daughter goes to a performing arts high school here in town that is performing arts.

876
00:25:36.109 --> 00:25:36.269
Yeah.

877
00:25:36.349 --> 00:25:37.729
A lot of people there that are gay.

878
00:25:38.270 --> 00:25:38.630
Awesome.

879
00:25:38.890 --> 00:25:39.010
Yeah.

880
00:25:39.150 --> 00:25:39.770
I don't care.

881
00:25:40.010 --> 00:25:40.430
Right.

882
00:25:40.450 --> 00:25:40.850
I don't,

883
00:25:40.910 --> 00:25:41.271
I don't,

884
00:25:41.272 --> 00:25:42.231
as long as you're a good person,

885
00:25:42.951 --> 00:25:43.191
you know,

886
00:25:43.192 --> 00:25:43.852
you can date a goat.

887
00:25:44.032 --> 00:25:44.512
I don't care.

888
00:25:44.513 --> 00:25:45.553
As long as the goat's good to you,

889
00:25:45.633 --> 00:25:46.273
I don't care.

890
00:25:46.633 --> 00:25:46.873
Right.

891
00:25:47.053 --> 00:25:47.193
And,

892
00:25:47.834 --> 00:25:51.215
and so her and I have talked and she said,

893
00:25:51.235 --> 00:25:51.395
well,

894
00:25:51.495 --> 00:25:53.636
you support Charlie Kirk and he wasn't a good person.

895
00:25:53.637 --> 00:25:53.936
And I said,

896
00:25:53.956 --> 00:25:54.116
honey,

897
00:25:54.997 --> 00:25:55.357
first of all,

898
00:25:55.358 --> 00:25:56.037
I want to tell you something.

899
00:25:56.578 --> 00:25:57.158
I'm Gen X.

900
00:25:58.058 --> 00:25:59.119
And when I was brought up,

901
00:25:59.599 --> 00:26:02.880
it's okay to have a difference of opinion and still be friends with somebody.

902
00:26:03.381 --> 00:26:05.361
So we're going to start this conversation off with,

903
00:26:05.562 --> 00:26:06.242
I love you.

904
00:26:07.038 --> 00:26:07.639
eternally.

905
00:26:08.219 --> 00:26:12.084
I will never love anything more on this planet than you as my child.

906
00:26:12.584 --> 00:26:14.326
Like there's my wife and then there's you and your,

907
00:26:14.427 --> 00:26:15.067
and your brother.

908
00:26:15.167 --> 00:26:15.428
Right.

909
00:26:15.788 --> 00:26:17.410
And so it's,

910
00:26:18.011 --> 00:26:20.573
we can have these talks and you need to go,

911
00:26:20.574 --> 00:26:22.776
we need to go into this before you even start down this,

912
00:26:22.816 --> 00:26:25.839
because she was kind of probing me because she's smarter than me.

913
00:26:26.861 --> 00:26:27.281
Oh yeah.

914
00:26:27.282 --> 00:26:27.862
I'm fucked.

915
00:26:28.482 --> 00:26:30.103
They have so much access to everything now,

916
00:26:30.164 --> 00:26:30.284
too.

917
00:26:30.285 --> 00:26:31.344
That's the thing.

918
00:26:31.805 --> 00:26:33.106
They can check you in real time.

919
00:26:33.146 --> 00:26:33.746
Hold on.

920
00:26:33.986 --> 00:26:36.228
And I asked her if she saw the assassination video,

921
00:26:36.248 --> 00:26:37.149
and she said no.

922
00:26:37.189 --> 00:26:37.449
I said,

923
00:26:37.489 --> 00:26:38.309
please don't watch it.

924
00:26:38.710 --> 00:26:39.670
You don't want to watch it.

925
00:26:39.891 --> 00:26:41.272
I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

926
00:26:41.932 --> 00:26:42.633
But I said to her,

927
00:26:42.733 --> 00:26:42.953
honey,

928
00:26:43.653 --> 00:26:45.495
before we even start this conversation,

929
00:26:46.495 --> 00:26:47.196
I love you.

930
00:26:47.576 --> 00:26:48.177
You love me.

931
00:26:48.337 --> 00:26:48.657
She said,

932
00:26:48.697 --> 00:26:48.957
yes.

933
00:26:49.037 --> 00:26:49.357
I said,

934
00:26:50.058 --> 00:26:51.219
never forget that.

935
00:26:52.400 --> 00:26:53.360
Never forget that.

936
00:26:53.520 --> 00:26:55.322
And so that's an.

937
00:26:56.066 --> 00:26:57.027
it's a tough example,

938
00:26:57.028 --> 00:26:58.728
but it's an easy one because that's my child.

939
00:26:59.128 --> 00:26:59.248
Yeah.

940
00:26:59.449 --> 00:27:00.409
And I'm knock on wood.

941
00:27:00.449 --> 00:27:01.790
We have a good relationship.

942
00:27:02.731 --> 00:27:03.111
We have our,

943
00:27:03.151 --> 00:27:03.972
we have our hiccups,

944
00:27:04.092 --> 00:27:07.894
but she's a great kid and I love her and she's brilliant.

945
00:27:08.355 --> 00:27:10.396
But with people that you don't know,

946
00:27:10.516 --> 00:27:11.597
or you thought you knew,

947
00:27:12.418 --> 00:27:13.698
I have people sliding into my,

948
00:27:13.919 --> 00:27:14.039
my,

949
00:27:14.259 --> 00:27:18.142
my Facebook messages and DMS that I'm friends with from years ago saying,

950
00:27:18.462 --> 00:27:19.202
how could you,

951
00:27:19.783 --> 00:27:19.943
but,

952
00:27:20.003 --> 00:27:20.123
but,

953
00:27:20.143 --> 00:27:20.323
but,

954
00:27:20.343 --> 00:27:20.463
but,

955
00:27:20.523 --> 00:27:21.384
but I,

956
00:27:21.464 --> 00:27:21.744
I just,

957
00:27:21.764 --> 00:27:22.404
I had a friend them.

958
00:27:22.885 --> 00:27:23.025
Yeah.

959
00:27:23.165 --> 00:27:23.645
I'm done.

960
00:27:23.925 --> 00:27:24.586
I don't.

961
00:27:25.698 --> 00:27:28.920
I'm not going to justify where I'm coming from,

962
00:27:29.480 --> 00:27:31.801
nor am I going to ask you where you justify your coming from.

963
00:27:31.861 --> 00:27:37.263
I'm going to ask you to quantify your position just to have a spirited debate because we were founded on debate.

964
00:27:37.463 --> 00:27:37.743
Right.

965
00:27:38.103 --> 00:27:39.304
By a bunch of guys.

966
00:27:39.584 --> 00:27:40.624
Most of them were drunks.

967
00:27:41.144 --> 00:27:42.185
You know,

968
00:27:42.345 --> 00:27:44.046
go see Hamilton for Christ's sake.

969
00:27:44.626 --> 00:27:44.906
You know,

970
00:27:45.246 --> 00:27:49.948
most of them were a bunch of cavorting with concubines and had,

971
00:27:50.008 --> 00:27:50.248
you know,

972
00:27:50.348 --> 00:27:51.309
banging slaves.

973
00:27:51.369 --> 00:27:51.929
Jefferson.

974
00:27:51.930 --> 00:27:53.790
We went to war against each other.

975
00:27:53.870 --> 00:27:54.050
Yeah.

976
00:27:54.450 --> 00:27:54.630
Yeah.

977
00:27:55.194 --> 00:27:55.714
Yes.

978
00:27:55.734 --> 00:27:58.335
But probably because they stopped having conversations.

979
00:27:58.455 --> 00:27:59.795
Because they stopped talking.

980
00:27:59.855 --> 00:28:00.956
And once you stop talking,

981
00:28:00.996 --> 00:28:04.477
then you start creating stuff in your brain and it becomes toxic.

982
00:28:04.897 --> 00:28:05.297
And then.

983
00:28:05.797 --> 00:28:07.338
And anyone who says those things,

984
00:28:07.358 --> 00:28:10.359
they just they clearly have never followed Charlie,

985
00:28:10.439 --> 00:28:12.759
watched any of his full videos,

986
00:28:12.819 --> 00:28:14.120
those full conversations,

987
00:28:14.121 --> 00:28:15.640
because you would see that's just not the truth.

988
00:28:15.900 --> 00:28:18.261
And every conversation he always started with,

989
00:28:18.281 --> 00:28:18.581
you know,

990
00:28:19.041 --> 00:28:19.721
I love you.

991
00:28:20.322 --> 00:28:21.302
I respect you.

992
00:28:21.762 --> 00:28:23.083
And even when people come up,

993
00:28:23.443 --> 00:28:25.085
one of my favorite clips is someone says,

994
00:28:25.125 --> 00:28:25.245
oh,

995
00:28:25.285 --> 00:28:26.386
I'm a gay conservative.

996
00:28:26.387 --> 00:28:26.686
And he goes,

997
00:28:26.687 --> 00:28:26.806
well,

998
00:28:26.826 --> 00:28:27.227
first of all,

999
00:28:28.307 --> 00:28:30.449
don't announce yourself with your sexuality.

1000
00:28:30.569 --> 00:28:31.530
You're more than that.

1001
00:28:32.030 --> 00:28:32.671
And I agree.

1002
00:28:33.111 --> 00:28:34.553
You don't go up to people and say,

1003
00:28:34.613 --> 00:28:34.793
hi,

1004
00:28:35.173 --> 00:28:35.633
I'm Jeff.

1005
00:28:35.733 --> 00:28:36.634
I'm straight.

1006
00:28:36.995 --> 00:28:38.195
I don't introduce myself.

1007
00:28:38.256 --> 00:28:38.416
Hi,

1008
00:28:38.456 --> 00:28:38.876
I'm Devin.

1009
00:28:38.956 --> 00:28:39.396
I'm gay.

1010
00:28:39.677 --> 00:28:39.837
Right.

1011
00:28:41.478 --> 00:28:41.899
Everybody,

1012
00:28:42.079 --> 00:28:43.760
every human being is more than,

1013
00:28:44.020 --> 00:28:45.061
you're more than your gender.

1014
00:28:45.141 --> 00:28:47.023
You're more than your sexual identity.

1015
00:28:47.663 --> 00:28:47.943
You know,

1016
00:28:48.544 --> 00:28:49.144
you're human.

1017
00:28:49.545 --> 00:28:50.926
And we're more than that.

1018
00:28:51.394 --> 00:28:54.536
And that was his whole message is let's have those conversations.

1019
00:28:54.617 --> 00:28:56.878
Even if we leave and we still don't agree,

1020
00:28:57.118 --> 00:28:58.600
we still have that conversation.

1021
00:28:58.720 --> 00:29:03.663
And his whole his whole platform was when those when we stopped talking is when the violence happens.

1022
00:29:05.265 --> 00:29:08.787
The thing I said to my daughter was she was asking me,

1023
00:29:08.887 --> 00:29:09.027
well,

1024
00:29:09.087 --> 00:29:11.649
what about he was against trans people?

1025
00:29:11.669 --> 00:29:11.870
I said,

1026
00:29:11.871 --> 00:29:11.910
no,

1027
00:29:11.911 --> 00:29:12.270
he wasn't.

1028
00:29:12.834 --> 00:29:12.914
No,

1029
00:29:12.915 --> 00:29:13.454
he was not.

1030
00:29:13.975 --> 00:29:14.795
He respected them,

1031
00:29:14.895 --> 00:29:15.956
but he said that you need to,

1032
00:29:16.056 --> 00:29:19.658
before you start going through all the surgery and things that are going to chemically change your body,

1033
00:29:19.678 --> 00:29:23.220
you really need to think about it and pray about it.

1034
00:29:23.440 --> 00:29:23.721
Yes.

1035
00:29:23.981 --> 00:29:25.482
And which I'm all for that.

1036
00:29:25.722 --> 00:29:25.842
Yeah.

1037
00:29:26.903 --> 00:29:27.843
And I said to her,

1038
00:29:27.923 --> 00:29:28.183
I said,

1039
00:29:28.223 --> 00:29:28.383
honey,

1040
00:29:28.744 --> 00:29:31.445
if you were to introduce me to a friend of yours that's trans,

1041
00:29:31.565 --> 00:29:34.307
I wouldn't treat them any differently than I would treat somebody that was,

1042
00:29:35.027 --> 00:29:35.268
you know,

1043
00:29:35.648 --> 00:29:37.129
like you or me or whatever,

1044
00:29:37.149 --> 00:29:38.289
a furry or whatever they are.

1045
00:29:38.290 --> 00:29:39.090
I don't care.

1046
00:29:39.746 --> 00:29:40.466
I don't care.

1047
00:29:40.526 --> 00:29:40.646
Yeah,

1048
00:29:40.707 --> 00:29:46.249
I look at it the same thing if I met somebody who is going and getting plastic surgery or things for weight loss.

1049
00:29:46.289 --> 00:29:50.372
It's they're doing something to make themselves feel better,

1050
00:29:50.532 --> 00:29:54.073
to love themselves more and to live a better life.

1051
00:29:54.113 --> 00:29:56.235
And if that's what they need to do that,

1052
00:29:56.715 --> 00:29:57.155
then yes.

1053
00:29:57.235 --> 00:29:57.915
But you're right.

1054
00:29:58.496 --> 00:29:59.776
It is a very serious.

1055
00:30:00.752 --> 00:30:16.363
thing and a commitment so you have to be pretty sure that that's the choice you better know is now look at we have this whole trend of people detransitioning and the one thing they all have in common is they all started at a very young age they're not like the caitlin jenner's or people that did

1056
00:30:16.423 --> 00:30:18.404
that in their adult life they were all

1057
00:30:18.904 --> 00:30:24.508
11 12 you know starting very young they're not fully developed your brain's not developed

1058
00:30:24.988 --> 00:30:25.869
My brain's not even doing it.

1059
00:30:26.049 --> 00:30:26.309
Well,

1060
00:30:26.489 --> 00:30:27.170
it's please,

1061
00:30:27.171 --> 00:30:27.650
I'm 55.

1062
00:30:27.970 --> 00:30:28.851
It's not.

1063
00:30:29.091 --> 00:30:29.331
Right.

1064
00:30:29.592 --> 00:30:31.813
You're always developing.

1065
00:30:31.814 --> 00:30:33.254
You're always trying to evolve,

1066
00:30:33.294 --> 00:30:34.155
become a better person.

1067
00:30:34.895 --> 00:30:37.377
I know I'm going to fail miserably today at things,

1068
00:30:37.677 --> 00:30:38.838
but I'll try it better tomorrow.

1069
00:30:38.858 --> 00:30:39.358
Yeah.

1070
00:30:39.359 --> 00:30:41.780
And I'm trying to be better today than I was yesterday.

1071
00:30:42.140 --> 00:30:42.861
That's all we can do,

1072
00:30:42.881 --> 00:30:43.001
Devin.

1073
00:30:43.002 --> 00:30:43.701
That's all we can do.

1074
00:30:43.762 --> 00:30:44.722
As human beings.

1075
00:30:45.203 --> 00:30:45.443
And

1076
00:30:46.063 --> 00:30:51.347
I just think that we really need to start being more patient with others.

1077
00:30:51.607 --> 00:30:51.887
Yes.

1078
00:30:51.927 --> 00:30:52.768
That's a good word.

1079
00:30:53.092 --> 00:30:53.913
Patience.

1080
00:30:53.993 --> 00:30:56.194
We need to be more empathetic with where they're coming from.

1081
00:30:56.434 --> 00:30:56.574
Yeah.

1082
00:30:56.934 --> 00:31:03.938
And we need to start reaching out to people with friendship and be patient with them as they're...

1083
00:31:05.539 --> 00:31:10.242
And not just immediately labeling somebody just because they have a different opinion.

1084
00:31:10.322 --> 00:31:13.664
Try to see why do they have that different opinion.

1085
00:31:13.924 --> 00:31:21.288
Find what that fire is inside of them that makes them feel so passionate about whatever issue it is that you have a disagreement on.

1086
00:31:22.064 --> 00:31:23.865
I've invited people that are

1087
00:31:24.505 --> 00:31:26.086
Democrat or on the left.

1088
00:31:26.306 --> 00:31:27.027
Aside from Attar,

1089
00:31:27.107 --> 00:31:27.587
who's come on.

1090
00:31:27.667 --> 00:31:28.588
He was awesome.

1091
00:31:28.708 --> 00:31:29.848
And I'm trying to get him back on.

1092
00:31:30.809 --> 00:31:31.949
But other people,

1093
00:31:32.070 --> 00:31:37.192
like I've seen people like micro influencers on TikTok that are throwing hatred around.

1094
00:31:37.212 --> 00:31:38.293
And they're based in Vegas.

1095
00:31:38.773 --> 00:31:39.534
I reached out to them.

1096
00:31:39.654 --> 00:31:39.834
Say,

1097
00:31:39.835 --> 00:31:39.994
hey,

1098
00:31:39.995 --> 00:31:40.974
I've got a little podcast.

1099
00:31:41.034 --> 00:31:41.375
Come on.

1100
00:31:42.175 --> 00:31:42.535
Nothing.

1101
00:31:43.116 --> 00:31:45.097
And Bill Maher says it great on his show.

1102
00:31:45.557 --> 00:31:46.778
The Republicans show up.

1103
00:31:47.418 --> 00:31:47.538
Yeah.

1104
00:31:47.698 --> 00:31:48.458
They always,

1105
00:31:48.699 --> 00:31:49.919
like Nancy Mace was just on.

1106
00:31:49.979 --> 00:31:50.239
He said,

1107
00:31:50.240 --> 00:31:50.419
he goes,

1108
00:31:50.700 --> 00:31:51.220
you show up.

1109
00:31:51.436 --> 00:31:52.157
I asked you to come on.

1110
00:31:52.197 --> 00:31:52.317
Yeah.

1111
00:31:52.557 --> 00:31:53.157
You come on.

1112
00:31:53.338 --> 00:31:55.559
And that's what really helped them in 2024.

1113
00:31:56.320 --> 00:31:58.402
They went into those uncomfortable spaces.

1114
00:31:58.462 --> 00:31:58.782
I mean,

1115
00:31:59.142 --> 00:32:00.624
even if you turn on Fox News,

1116
00:32:01.144 --> 00:32:01.444
most

1117
00:32:02.185 --> 00:32:08.230
Democrat congressional members won't even go on because they only will go into safe spaces like MSNBC,

1118
00:32:08.550 --> 00:32:11.353
CNN or other liberal podcasts or platforms.

1119
00:32:12.013 --> 00:32:13.494
And we should be going everywhere.

1120
00:32:13.554 --> 00:32:13.815
You know,

1121
00:32:13.855 --> 00:32:15.276
when you are an elected.

1122
00:32:15.536 --> 00:32:17.277
member of Congress or the Senate,

1123
00:32:17.337 --> 00:32:18.017
your president,

1124
00:32:18.077 --> 00:32:19.658
whatever you're trying to run for,

1125
00:32:19.738 --> 00:32:20.938
you're representing everybody.

1126
00:32:21.018 --> 00:32:25.300
You're not just representing the Democrats or the Republicans in your district.

1127
00:32:25.340 --> 00:32:26.781
You're representing everybody,

1128
00:32:26.841 --> 00:32:27.941
even the people that didn't vote.

1129
00:32:28.161 --> 00:32:28.341
Right.

1130
00:32:28.781 --> 00:32:29.882
Even the ones that don't vote,

1131
00:32:29.883 --> 00:32:30.542
they're not engaged,

1132
00:32:30.543 --> 00:32:31.643
but they complain online.

1133
00:32:31.663 --> 00:32:33.103
You're still representing them.

1134
00:32:33.523 --> 00:32:39.766
It's just it's so easy to fall into the two camps.

1135
00:32:40.046 --> 00:32:40.206
Yeah.

1136
00:32:40.406 --> 00:32:40.606
Right.

1137
00:32:41.347 --> 00:32:42.227
And like you said,

1138
00:32:42.247 --> 00:32:44.008
that there are some moderate Democrats.

1139
00:32:44.328 --> 00:32:44.448
Yeah.

1140
00:32:44.764 --> 00:33:10.408
that are that are this from moderate republicans and it's you know what we all need to start and it's the i think that it's the moderate republicans moderate democrats need to start like going off for drinks quietly so nobody knows and just talk and go okay what what do we agree on right what are some things that we find common ground what common ground can we reach to kind of like the one person that surprised me was uh senator fetterman like

1141
00:33:10.868 --> 00:33:12.929
I will admit when he first got elected,

1142
00:33:12.930 --> 00:33:13.269
I was like,

1143
00:33:13.329 --> 00:33:14.769
who is this crazy?

1144
00:33:14.969 --> 00:33:15.149
Like,

1145
00:33:15.189 --> 00:33:17.370
looks like he lives in his mom's basement.

1146
00:33:17.910 --> 00:33:19.590
Liberal like pothead.

1147
00:33:19.670 --> 00:33:21.611
I don't even I had all these thoughts.

1148
00:33:21.831 --> 00:33:24.692
And I admit I made snap judgments and things.

1149
00:33:25.012 --> 00:33:25.292
And now,

1150
00:33:25.332 --> 00:33:25.492
look,

1151
00:33:25.832 --> 00:33:31.254
he turns out to be the most level headed middle of the road reach across the aisle.

1152
00:33:31.634 --> 00:33:31.954
You know,

1153
00:33:32.374 --> 00:33:33.874
he was the only senator.

1154
00:33:33.914 --> 00:33:39.676
I think that they just were voting on one of the continuing resolutions to try to keep the government open.

1155
00:33:40.016 --> 00:33:42.417
And he's the only Democrat that voted to keep it open.

1156
00:33:42.437 --> 00:33:44.897
And he sounds so sane all of the time.

1157
00:33:45.238 --> 00:33:45.538
It's like,

1158
00:33:45.578 --> 00:33:46.698
what happened to that?

1159
00:33:47.238 --> 00:33:50.939
John Fetterman is the only voice of reason in the Democratic Party today.

1160
00:33:51.039 --> 00:33:51.199
Yeah,

1161
00:33:51.359 --> 00:33:55.941
which is crazy because it's like the seven-foot guy in a hoodie and cargo shorts.

1162
00:33:55.942 --> 00:33:56.381
And you're like,

1163
00:33:56.382 --> 00:33:57.421
who is this clown?

1164
00:33:57.422 --> 00:33:59.922
I think cargo shorts.

1165
00:34:00.382 --> 00:34:02.923
Fetterman wore cargo shorts to Trump's inauguration.

1166
00:34:02.983 --> 00:34:03.123
Yeah.

1167
00:34:03.303 --> 00:34:03.423
Like,

1168
00:34:03.424 --> 00:34:04.223
it was hilarious.

1169
00:34:04.463 --> 00:34:05.583
He's true to who he is.

1170
00:34:06.184 --> 00:34:06.944
That's his thing.

1171
00:34:07.164 --> 00:34:07.484
And it's...

1172
00:34:08.761 --> 00:34:10.022
I praise him for that.

1173
00:34:10.162 --> 00:34:10.322
Yeah.

1174
00:34:10.662 --> 00:34:10.803
And

1175
00:34:11.403 --> 00:34:12.704
I respect him for that.

1176
00:34:13.505 --> 00:34:15.667
He's a guy you could agree to disagree with.

1177
00:34:16.107 --> 00:34:16.748
And it's okay.

1178
00:34:16.749 --> 00:34:17.549
You don't wish him.

1179
00:34:17.849 --> 00:34:18.349
You're not yelling,

1180
00:34:18.369 --> 00:34:18.890
slurring,

1181
00:34:19.430 --> 00:34:20.551
throwing slurs at him.

1182
00:34:21.012 --> 00:34:22.113
It's his own voice.

1183
00:34:22.114 --> 00:34:23.394
He doesn't fall in line.

1184
00:34:23.395 --> 00:34:24.615
And that's one thing I'll say,

1185
00:34:24.775 --> 00:34:24.975
though.

1186
00:34:25.095 --> 00:34:25.216
Oh,

1187
00:34:25.296 --> 00:34:27.598
Republicans have power and everywhere,

1188
00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:29.139
but they can't get anything done.

1189
00:34:29.800 --> 00:34:34.544
A lot of that is because there's a lot of butting heads inside because it's a divide.

1190
00:34:34.704 --> 00:34:35.985
diversity of thought now.

1191
00:34:36.105 --> 00:34:37.365
It is a big tent party.

1192
00:34:37.445 --> 00:34:39.747
There are a lot of different opinions.

1193
00:34:39.767 --> 00:34:41.728
They're all not just MAGA.

1194
00:34:41.868 --> 00:34:46.210
There's people that represent different thoughts.

1195
00:34:47.070 --> 00:34:48.251
I feel on the left,

1196
00:34:48.351 --> 00:34:51.672
it's usually even if they have a different opinion or a different thought,

1197
00:34:51.692 --> 00:34:53.013
they won't publicly say that.

1198
00:34:53.213 --> 00:34:53.854
At the end of the day,

1199
00:34:53.894 --> 00:34:55.975
they'll fall in line and verify everyone else,

1200
00:34:56.335 --> 00:34:58.616
except for the people like a John Fetterman who will say.

1201
00:34:59.406 --> 00:34:59.606
you know,

1202
00:34:59.726 --> 00:35:02.068
what they truly feel in their conscious.

1203
00:35:02.108 --> 00:35:02.968
They are terrified.

1204
00:35:03.429 --> 00:35:04.169
I don't know why.

1205
00:35:04.289 --> 00:35:04.470
Well,

1206
00:35:05.550 --> 00:35:05.810
okay.

1207
00:35:06.151 --> 00:35:08.152
Let's look at Kimmel with what happened.

1208
00:35:08.833 --> 00:35:08.953
He,

1209
00:35:09.573 --> 00:35:09.853
you know,

1210
00:35:10.013 --> 00:35:10.614
Bob Iger,

1211
00:35:10.734 --> 00:35:12.175
the CEO of Disney says,

1212
00:35:12.655 --> 00:35:13.576
what you said was wrong.

1213
00:35:14.156 --> 00:35:16.398
You need to apologize.

1214
00:35:16.878 --> 00:35:17.659
And he basically says,

1215
00:35:17.779 --> 00:35:17.899
no,

1216
00:35:18.519 --> 00:35:19.360
I'm doubling down.

1217
00:35:19.860 --> 00:35:20.200
Fine.

1218
00:35:20.821 --> 00:35:21.161
You're out.

1219
00:35:21.501 --> 00:35:21.681
Right.

1220
00:35:21.721 --> 00:35:23.303
Or at least a leave of absence for a while.

1221
00:35:23.323 --> 00:35:23.743
We're going to,

1222
00:35:23.843 --> 00:35:24.764
we're taking your show off.

1223
00:35:25.224 --> 00:35:26.465
And all the affiliates say,

1224
00:35:27.085 --> 00:35:27.986
we're not going to Sinclair.

1225
00:35:28.286 --> 00:35:29.127
All the big ones said,

1226
00:35:29.547 --> 00:35:29.667
no,

1227
00:35:29.747 --> 00:35:31.268
we're not going to carry the show.

1228
00:35:32.409 --> 00:35:32.609
What

1229
00:35:33.630 --> 00:35:36.852
I was told and what I've seen is

1230
00:35:37.673 --> 00:35:40.294
Hollywood came back to

1231
00:35:40.935 --> 00:35:42.596
Iger and said,

1232
00:35:42.976 --> 00:35:44.838
if you don't let Kimmel back on,

1233
00:35:45.938 --> 00:35:51.582
we are going to basically ruin the Disney brand and ABC and you won't get actors.

1234
00:35:51.583 --> 00:35:52.583
Not much left to ruin.

1235
00:35:53.444 --> 00:35:53.584
Well,

1236
00:35:53.585 --> 00:35:54.344
it's also true.

1237
00:35:54.604 --> 00:35:56.726
But you won't have actors for.

1238
00:35:57.146 --> 00:36:00.087
your movies or your TV shows or anything.

1239
00:36:00.147 --> 00:36:02.969
And he immediately told the line and brought Kimmel back in,

1240
00:36:03.209 --> 00:36:03.589
which is,

1241
00:36:03.989 --> 00:36:04.209
well,

1242
00:36:04.609 --> 00:36:05.730
I have a few thoughts on that.

1243
00:36:05.790 --> 00:36:07.171
Cause if you ask any,

1244
00:36:07.971 --> 00:36:09.092
most people on the left,

1245
00:36:09.112 --> 00:36:11.533
they'll tell you it was Donald Trump and the government that,

1246
00:36:11.733 --> 00:36:11.973
you know,

1247
00:36:12.073 --> 00:36:13.013
got him off the air,

1248
00:36:13.173 --> 00:36:13.814
which it wasn't.

1249
00:36:15.174 --> 00:36:15.454
But yeah,

1250
00:36:15.494 --> 00:36:15.715
I mean,

1251
00:36:15.755 --> 00:36:18.896
I feel like you have a right to say certain things,

1252
00:36:18.956 --> 00:36:22.738
but when you're in a contracted position and you represent a company,

1253
00:36:23.742 --> 00:36:30.746
You do have they do have that right to take you off if they feel like it's not going to benefit them or make them money because those guys get paid a lot.

1254
00:36:31.446 --> 00:36:32.647
They get paid a lot of money.

1255
00:36:32.727 --> 00:36:33.427
They're making what,

1256
00:36:33.588 --> 00:36:37.029
40 million a year when their show is bringing in maybe

1257
00:36:37.610 --> 00:36:38.330
10 million.

1258
00:36:38.690 --> 00:36:38.810
So,

1259
00:36:38.870 --> 00:36:38.990
yeah,

1260
00:36:39.090 --> 00:36:41.052
it's a business decision at the end of the day.

1261
00:36:42.112 --> 00:36:42.432
And look,

1262
00:36:42.472 --> 00:36:44.794
he he got he was off for like a week.

1263
00:36:45.974 --> 00:36:47.535
And I think he'd be I think he was fine.

1264
00:36:47.575 --> 00:36:47.815
You know,

1265
00:36:47.816 --> 00:36:49.056
I think he'll be OK.

1266
00:36:49.116 --> 00:36:50.477
And he's a Vegas guy,

1267
00:36:51.077 --> 00:36:51.357
you know,

1268
00:36:51.437 --> 00:36:52.598
and he's been very good to Vegas.

1269
00:36:53.078 --> 00:36:56.000
Like when anyone I know that's ever met him says he's wonderful.

1270
00:36:56.300 --> 00:36:57.401
Yeah.

1271
00:36:57.402 --> 00:36:57.421
I,

1272
00:36:57.422 --> 00:36:57.821
and again,

1273
00:36:58.082 --> 00:36:58.202
I'm,

1274
00:36:58.782 --> 00:36:58.902
I,

1275
00:36:59.022 --> 00:37:02.064
I just changed my political affiliation to Republican after what happened with Charlie Kirk.

1276
00:37:02.084 --> 00:37:02.805
I was independent.

1277
00:37:03.225 --> 00:37:03.365
Yeah.

1278
00:37:04.586 --> 00:37:04.846
I was,

1279
00:37:05.087 --> 00:37:06.307
I was Republican forever.

1280
00:37:06.468 --> 00:37:07.568
Like generation.

1281
00:37:08.069 --> 00:37:08.189
I,

1282
00:37:08.509 --> 00:37:09.250
I changed to,

1283
00:37:09.650 --> 00:37:09.850
um,

1284
00:37:10.010 --> 00:37:11.451
independent when we moved here from St.

1285
00:37:11.471 --> 00:37:11.791
George,

1286
00:37:11.792 --> 00:37:15.854
Utah in 2012 because I knew we were a battleground state.

1287
00:37:16.054 --> 00:37:17.115
I didn't want all the fucking mail.

1288
00:37:17.555 --> 00:37:17.856
Yeah.

1289
00:37:17.876 --> 00:37:19.597
I didn't want all the mail in my mailbox.

1290
00:37:19.598 --> 00:37:20.017
It's so much.

1291
00:37:20.018 --> 00:37:21.038
I'm already getting texts.

1292
00:37:21.258 --> 00:37:21.378
you.

1293
00:37:21.758 --> 00:37:23.119
I just I couldn't stand it.

1294
00:37:23.480 --> 00:37:25.001
And so I but now I'm like,

1295
00:37:25.041 --> 00:37:25.161
no,

1296
00:37:25.561 --> 00:37:28.983
I'm going back to my roots to be a member of the Republican Party.

1297
00:37:29.063 --> 00:37:31.225
But I'm a moderate Republican.

1298
00:37:31.226 --> 00:37:31.565
Yeah,

1299
00:37:31.645 --> 00:37:31.925
I will.

1300
00:37:32.065 --> 00:37:38.810
I will listen to the other side as long as you're not hurling pedophile insults or Nazi fascist insults at me.

1301
00:37:39.451 --> 00:37:40.411
We can talk.

1302
00:37:40.691 --> 00:37:40.952
Yeah.

1303
00:37:41.032 --> 00:37:47.136
And I'm more than happy to give whoever if you are a moderate or hard left and you want a seat on Fargo Talks,

1304
00:37:47.296 --> 00:37:48.176
it's here for you.

1305
00:37:48.877 --> 00:37:49.417
If you're in,

1306
00:37:49.858 --> 00:37:50.138
you know.

1307
00:37:50.498 --> 00:37:51.959
I would love to have some time like you,

1308
00:37:52.419 --> 00:37:53.139
Danielle,

1309
00:37:53.460 --> 00:37:57.382
and like a tar and we just sit and just and let's just talk.

1310
00:37:57.502 --> 00:37:58.602
Have those conversations.

1311
00:37:58.603 --> 00:38:01.044
And let's have some sincere conversations.

1312
00:38:01.364 --> 00:38:05.366
Another thing with the whole Kimmel Disney thing that blew my mind was like,

1313
00:38:05.406 --> 00:38:11.369
where where was all this energy with people like Gina Carano who got fired from The Mandalorian?

1314
00:38:11.749 --> 00:38:12.050
You know,

1315
00:38:12.490 --> 00:38:13.370
that was for a tweet.

1316
00:38:13.730 --> 00:38:14.911
She tweeted an opinion.

1317
00:38:15.151 --> 00:38:15.932
She got canned.

1318
00:38:16.032 --> 00:38:17.312
Nobody had a problem with that.

1319
00:38:17.653 --> 00:38:20.094
Nobody had a problem when they were.

1320
00:38:20.394 --> 00:38:23.857
literally taking a president of the United States off of Twitter,

1321
00:38:24.257 --> 00:38:27.239
off deplatforming him on every form.

1322
00:38:27.599 --> 00:38:28.400
They didn't care.

1323
00:38:29.080 --> 00:38:29.420
So it's,

1324
00:38:29.621 --> 00:38:33.663
you can't do the whole one side thing and get mad and say,

1325
00:38:33.743 --> 00:38:33.884
Oh,

1326
00:38:34.064 --> 00:38:35.064
we got to bring him back.

1327
00:38:35.124 --> 00:38:40.808
You're censoring when you celebrated other people being censored because they just had different opinions than you.

1328
00:38:41.329 --> 00:38:41.969
I'm,

1329
00:38:42.049 --> 00:38:45.972
I'm torn with the whole Kimmel thing because

1330
00:38:46.793 --> 00:38:47.933
I agree with you a hundred percent.

1331
00:38:48.414 --> 00:38:48.534
It's,

1332
00:38:48.774 --> 00:38:49.695
monitored by the FCC.

1333
00:38:49.895 --> 00:38:51.015
It's public airwaves.

1334
00:38:51.296 --> 00:38:52.136
You can't do that.

1335
00:38:52.476 --> 00:38:53.817
You can do that on HBO,

1336
00:38:54.357 --> 00:38:55.058
on Netflix,

1337
00:38:55.238 --> 00:38:56.158
on Paramount Plus,

1338
00:38:56.699 --> 00:38:57.599
streaming services,

1339
00:38:57.959 --> 00:38:58.460
go ham,

1340
00:38:58.700 --> 00:38:59.400
go crazy.

1341
00:38:59.900 --> 00:39:00.501
That's fine.

1342
00:39:00.781 --> 00:39:01.962
But on public airwaves,

1343
00:39:02.182 --> 00:39:03.142
you really can't do that.

1344
00:39:04.243 --> 00:39:05.184
The problem is,

1345
00:39:06.544 --> 00:39:10.226
and Rogan had a good point about this because Kimmel to his core used to be,

1346
00:39:10.267 --> 00:39:11.967
was a standup comic before he started.

1347
00:39:12.028 --> 00:39:16.070
And if you start coming after standup comics for jokes,

1348
00:39:16.614 --> 00:39:16.794
Like,

1349
00:39:16.914 --> 00:39:17.054
what,

1350
00:39:17.235 --> 00:39:17.375
what,

1351
00:39:17.515 --> 00:39:18.275
where does that end?

1352
00:39:18.376 --> 00:39:18.516
Like,

1353
00:39:18.536 --> 00:39:18.736
that's,

1354
00:39:18.956 --> 00:39:21.138
it's a slippery slope you're going down.

1355
00:39:21.298 --> 00:39:23.560
And it always kills me how quick they are to defend him.

1356
00:39:23.580 --> 00:39:24.080
And I'm like,

1357
00:39:24.381 --> 00:39:27.963
just go look at all of his past work where he would do blackface,

1358
00:39:28.104 --> 00:39:33.048
where he was the whole man show with women in bikinis jumping on trampolines,

1359
00:39:33.228 --> 00:39:33.468
you know,

1360
00:39:33.548 --> 00:39:33.948
before.

1361
00:39:34.389 --> 00:39:34.749
It's like,

1362
00:39:34.869 --> 00:39:35.770
oh my gosh.

1363
00:39:35.790 --> 00:39:37.551
And now all of a sudden you're this like,

1364
00:39:38.532 --> 00:39:38.832
you know.

1365
00:39:38.913 --> 00:39:39.213
But now

1366
00:39:40.414 --> 00:39:41.695
I'm the poster boy of,

1367
00:39:41.935 --> 00:39:42.175
you know.

1368
00:39:42.176 --> 00:39:43.837
Political correctness.

1369
00:39:43.838 --> 00:39:44.697
Of PC talk.

1370
00:39:44.998 --> 00:39:45.118
So

1371
00:39:46.142 --> 00:39:47.963
But I had a problem with,

1372
00:39:48.243 --> 00:39:48.623
again,

1373
00:39:48.803 --> 00:39:49.984
it's Trump goes off script,

1374
00:39:50.404 --> 00:39:53.505
but him just like with the tweets at Jimmy Kimmel,

1375
00:39:53.506 --> 00:39:53.746
I'm like,

1376
00:39:53.826 --> 00:39:53.986
no,

1377
00:39:54.786 --> 00:39:54.906
no,

1378
00:39:55.566 --> 00:39:56.847
that does not help.

1379
00:39:57.647 --> 00:39:59.448
All that does is stir up your base.

1380
00:39:59.508 --> 00:39:59.628
Oh,

1381
00:39:59.629 --> 00:39:59.768
yeah.

1382
00:39:59.788 --> 00:40:01.129
It doesn't bring anybody back.

1383
00:40:01.209 --> 00:40:02.249
There's times I'm like,

1384
00:40:02.290 --> 00:40:03.210
I wish somebody would.

1385
00:40:03.706 --> 00:40:20.433
take i i don't know if he's tweet i do but i think trump does tweet himself when he's like post those i do think it's him typing those out so at that point i guess he just can't be stopped but i'm sure someone says something they have to well they showed a video of him i know that he

1386
00:40:20.513 --> 00:40:32.038
has somebody that is like with him because when they're on when they were campaigning they're gonna sweep somewhere it's a very attractive woman and he's telling her what to say and she was giving him feedback and he was listening to and saying okay fine let's do that

1387
00:40:32.402 --> 00:40:33.562
And then out would go the tweet.

1388
00:40:34.323 --> 00:40:39.004
I don't think he had that type of governor on him previously.

1389
00:40:39.184 --> 00:40:39.444
Right.

1390
00:40:39.904 --> 00:40:42.125
Because previously it would be like 3 in the morning.

1391
00:40:42.625 --> 00:40:44.065
And he's just firing shit out,

1392
00:40:44.125 --> 00:40:44.385
man.

1393
00:40:44.806 --> 00:40:46.026
I do hear that he doesn't sleep.

1394
00:40:46.066 --> 00:40:47.206
He stays up late.

1395
00:40:47.746 --> 00:40:49.307
You drink 17 Diet Cokes a day,

1396
00:40:49.367 --> 00:40:49.767
Devin.

1397
00:40:50.227 --> 00:40:51.047
And what happens?

1398
00:40:51.427 --> 00:40:51.888
Jesus.

1399
00:40:52.328 --> 00:40:54.208
It's like Tony Montana in Scarface.

1400
00:40:54.228 --> 00:40:54.808
He's just like.

1401
00:40:55.228 --> 00:40:57.889
But what about the whole like Gavin Newsom now?

1402
00:40:57.949 --> 00:41:00.470
And he's like literally trying to tweet.

1403
00:41:00.750 --> 00:41:01.951
exactly like Trump.

1404
00:41:01.991 --> 00:41:03.151
I think that whole thing is weird.

1405
00:41:03.291 --> 00:41:05.092
He seems to think it's a great strategy.

1406
00:41:05.132 --> 00:41:06.532
The whole Newsom thing,

1407
00:41:06.673 --> 00:41:07.653
Newsom scares me.

1408
00:41:08.253 --> 00:41:09.053
I'm going to be honest.

1409
00:41:09.134 --> 00:41:11.194
Gavin Newsom really scares me.

1410
00:41:11.294 --> 00:41:14.756
I think it scares a lot of people in Vegas because if you've been here long enough,

1411
00:41:14.816 --> 00:41:16.557
you know all the residual effects.

1412
00:41:16.637 --> 00:41:16.897
I mean,

1413
00:41:17.337 --> 00:41:22.479
that's why our gas doesn't go down like everywhere else because we get our gas from California and all of the,

1414
00:41:22.899 --> 00:41:23.179
you know,

1415
00:41:23.600 --> 00:41:25.340
things that we're punished for,

1416
00:41:25.380 --> 00:41:26.901
for being so close to that state.

1417
00:41:26.902 --> 00:41:29.042
He is a very handsome.

1418
00:41:29.342 --> 00:41:29.482
Yeah.

1419
00:41:29.822 --> 00:41:55.042
slick well-spoken man who's passionate he's smart and but he is fucking darth vader man he is the lord of the sith yeah and he scares me yeah but he has that obama early clinton charisma track like you're right you're exactly right and people fall for that people fall it all comes down to the

1420
00:41:55.143 --> 00:41:57.484
base is usually for either side.

1421
00:41:57.645 --> 00:41:57.925
Sorry,

1422
00:41:57.965 --> 00:41:58.445
it's true.

1423
00:41:58.805 --> 00:41:59.246
The most

1424
00:41:59.686 --> 00:42:07.151
uneducated uh cerebrally lazy people they won't take the extra effort to watch a

1425
00:42:07.612 --> 00:42:11.655
45 minute video right of someone speaking but they'll take an overly edited

1426
00:42:12.035 --> 00:42:27.406
14 second clip devon and go god damn it what's he saying and also the fact that that all he's ever done if you just look at his life it's clear that he just has he wants to be president he was mayor of san francisco moved his way to governor he's just slowly you

1427
00:42:27.526 --> 00:42:49.664
creeping up that political ladder and all of the places left behind are in destruction that he used to govern off san francisco the entire state of california i mean why do we want that for the rest of our well that's and that's why i i do think that he's not going to get in to the white house i think that just he's that's how he has burned his

1428
00:42:49.744 --> 00:42:56.670
state to the ground literally yeah look at but look at the pacific palisades is still just like awful terrible

1429
00:42:56.890 --> 00:42:57.230
Awful.

1430
00:42:57.490 --> 00:42:57.851
And so,

1431
00:42:58.631 --> 00:43:02.313
but he scares me because people are listening to him.

1432
00:43:02.493 --> 00:43:02.653
Yeah.

1433
00:43:03.013 --> 00:43:04.053
They listen to him.

1434
00:43:04.194 --> 00:43:05.454
Well,

1435
00:43:05.494 --> 00:43:10.977
that's what I was kind of touching on with his whole redistricting thing is people are supporting it.

1436
00:43:11.157 --> 00:43:11.397
And

1437
00:43:12.157 --> 00:43:13.298
I don't trust every poll,

1438
00:43:13.358 --> 00:43:16.900
but every poll I keep seeing is they're liking how he's tweeting.

1439
00:43:16.940 --> 00:43:18.620
They're liking the things he's saying.

1440
00:43:18.821 --> 00:43:21.002
They approve of these new congressional maps.

1441
00:43:21.022 --> 00:43:21.522
So I'm like.

1442
00:43:22.570 --> 00:43:24.912
Sometimes I feel like it's California is just a lost cause.

1443
00:43:24.952 --> 00:43:26.533
Like they deserve what's coming to them.

1444
00:43:26.653 --> 00:43:29.115
But the reality is that's coming to all of us,

1445
00:43:29.295 --> 00:43:29.555
you know?

1446
00:43:29.675 --> 00:43:29.795
Well,

1447
00:43:29.796 --> 00:43:30.656
that's the thing is I,

1448
00:43:31.096 --> 00:43:31.997
I love California.

1449
00:43:32.077 --> 00:43:32.937
I love visiting there.

1450
00:43:32.997 --> 00:43:33.898
I have good friends there.

1451
00:43:33.938 --> 00:43:34.879
I have clients there.

1452
00:43:34.880 --> 00:43:35.759
Yeah.

1453
00:43:35.779 --> 00:43:35.880
I,

1454
00:43:35.881 --> 00:43:36.440
I love to go,

1455
00:43:37.020 --> 00:43:38.481
but what I love to do is,

1456
00:43:38.501 --> 00:43:39.442
and this is the move.

1457
00:43:40.203 --> 00:43:41.163
I go Southwest.

1458
00:43:41.183 --> 00:43:45.186
I'll take one of the first flights out in the morning and I go into John Wayne.

1459
00:43:45.526 --> 00:43:45.647
Oh,

1460
00:43:45.667 --> 00:43:46.227
I love that.

1461
00:43:46.527 --> 00:43:46.887
LAX,

1462
00:43:47.388 --> 00:43:49.309
but either Burbank or John Wayne,

1463
00:43:49.310 --> 00:43:50.270
depending on what I'm going to see.

1464
00:43:50.802 --> 00:43:52.003
I'm there all day long,

1465
00:43:52.004 --> 00:43:53.183
and I take the last flight out,

1466
00:43:53.184 --> 00:43:53.664
and I'm back.

1467
00:43:54.184 --> 00:43:54.304
Yeah,

1468
00:43:54.305 --> 00:43:56.325
and it probably cost you less than $100.

1469
00:43:56.326 --> 00:43:57.046
It's not bad.

1470
00:43:57.306 --> 00:43:57.466
Yeah,

1471
00:43:57.566 --> 00:43:58.326
it's not bad.

1472
00:43:58.706 --> 00:43:59.047
And so

1473
00:43:59.867 --> 00:44:00.607
I'm good with that.

1474
00:44:00.968 --> 00:44:01.508
But to go,

1475
00:44:01.848 --> 00:44:02.028
like,

1476
00:44:02.448 --> 00:44:03.489
I could not live there.

1477
00:44:03.929 --> 00:44:04.049
No.

1478
00:44:04.249 --> 00:44:04.850
I could not.

1479
00:44:05.810 --> 00:44:06.431
For all the money,

1480
00:44:06.511 --> 00:44:07.311
I would not do it.

1481
00:44:07.551 --> 00:44:08.912
And I love Vegas,

1482
00:44:08.972 --> 00:44:09.412
but I just,

1483
00:44:09.632 --> 00:44:10.473
I couldn't do that.

1484
00:44:11.033 --> 00:44:11.233
But

1485
00:44:12.274 --> 00:44:12.634
I just,

1486
00:44:12.734 --> 00:44:12.914
it's,

1487
00:44:13.335 --> 00:44:14.595
Gavin Newsom scares me.

1488
00:44:14.915 --> 00:44:15.556
Yeah,

1489
00:44:15.616 --> 00:44:16.216
it is scary.

1490
00:44:16.276 --> 00:44:17.577
Gavin Newsom scares me.

1491
00:44:17.837 --> 00:44:19.238
Zohan Mandami.

1492
00:44:19.858 --> 00:44:23.221
who looks like he's going to be the next mayor of New York scares me.

1493
00:44:24.521 --> 00:44:25.082
The guy in

1494
00:44:25.502 --> 00:44:27.123
Minneapolis, he scares me.

1495
00:44:27.303 --> 00:44:27.604
I mean,

1496
00:44:27.864 --> 00:44:28.644
there's a lot of scary.

1497
00:44:28.965 --> 00:44:31.306
And we have to pay attention because that's how it starts.

1498
00:44:31.326 --> 00:44:33.688
They're going to seek those lower offices,

1499
00:44:33.788 --> 00:44:34.148
mayor,

1500
00:44:34.248 --> 00:44:35.049
city council,

1501
00:44:35.129 --> 00:44:36.070
and slowly,

1502
00:44:36.350 --> 00:44:36.630
you know,

1503
00:44:37.070 --> 00:44:37.511
work up.

1504
00:44:37.571 --> 00:44:41.453
And if that happens in our top major cities,

1505
00:44:42.014 --> 00:44:46.317
that's why people are paying attention so much to New York because it's New York City.

1506
00:44:47.017 --> 00:44:47.618
It's huge.

1507
00:44:47.738 --> 00:44:47.918
It's...

1508
00:44:48.518 --> 00:44:49.919
one of the beacons of America.

1509
00:44:50.039 --> 00:44:52.640
And so if it takes place and gets legs there,

1510
00:44:52.920 --> 00:44:54.121
it'll quickly spread.

1511
00:44:54.821 --> 00:44:59.503
Charlie Kirk said it takes hundreds of years to build up a country and one generation to take it down.

1512
00:44:59.543 --> 00:45:03.125
And we're seeing it now in the UK,

1513
00:45:04.526 --> 00:45:05.186
in France.

1514
00:45:05.746 --> 00:45:10.309
With just open borders and people coming in and taking over,

1515
00:45:11.050 --> 00:45:11.350
you know,

1516
00:45:12.371 --> 00:45:12.791
government,

1517
00:45:13.812 --> 00:45:14.052
you know,

1518
00:45:14.112 --> 00:45:20.396
elected positions where the fabric of the country is now being torn apart.

1519
00:45:20.696 --> 00:45:20.916
Right.

1520
00:45:21.157 --> 00:45:23.298
And with Mondani going in,

1521
00:45:23.618 --> 00:45:24.379
he's going to be mayor.

1522
00:45:24.559 --> 00:45:25.099
He's going to be mayor.

1523
00:45:25.800 --> 00:45:26.060
And,

1524
00:45:26.300 --> 00:45:26.520
you know,

1525
00:45:26.521 --> 00:45:27.381
Trump is already saying,

1526
00:45:27.881 --> 00:45:28.101
well,

1527
00:45:28.141 --> 00:45:28.602
we're going to not,

1528
00:45:28.822 --> 00:45:30.163
we're going to seize all funding.

1529
00:45:30.723 --> 00:45:31.063
Stop.

1530
00:45:31.184 --> 00:45:31.604
Just stop.

1531
00:45:31.924 --> 00:45:32.304
Stop,

1532
00:45:32.364 --> 00:45:32.645
Trump,

1533
00:45:32.705 --> 00:45:33.245
with that shit.

1534
00:45:33.285 --> 00:45:33.805
Just stop it.

1535
00:45:34.266 --> 00:45:34.566
But it's.

1536
00:45:35.230 --> 00:45:35.390
Like,

1537
00:45:36.450 --> 00:45:38.071
Maldonado was saying something about,

1538
00:45:38.311 --> 00:45:39.991
I want to say it's public transportation.

1539
00:45:40.351 --> 00:45:41.752
It came out recently that he said,

1540
00:45:42.192 --> 00:45:42.372
well,

1541
00:45:43.272 --> 00:45:43.953
it's going to be free.

1542
00:45:44.173 --> 00:45:44.333
Well,

1543
00:45:44.473 --> 00:45:44.813
wait a minute.

1544
00:45:44.814 --> 00:45:44.933
No,

1545
00:45:45.073 --> 00:45:47.654
it's going to cost $400 million-ish.

1546
00:45:48.194 --> 00:45:49.934
And we're just going to tax the rich.

1547
00:45:50.894 --> 00:45:54.896
Please tell me what rich person is going to stay in,

1548
00:45:55.376 --> 00:45:55.516
like,

1549
00:45:55.517 --> 00:45:56.376
they're all going to move to Florida.

1550
00:45:57.656 --> 00:45:58.797
I was born in New York City.

1551
00:45:59.237 --> 00:46:00.777
My family is from upstate New York.

1552
00:46:01.077 --> 00:46:02.818
I go back often to see them.

1553
00:46:03.218 --> 00:46:05.299
I took my daughter for when she was 13.

1554
00:46:05.559 --> 00:46:07.480
We went to Manhattan for eight days,

1555
00:46:07.540 --> 00:46:08.541
had a great time.

1556
00:46:08.821 --> 00:46:10.342
I wouldn't bring my kids back there now.

1557
00:46:10.962 --> 00:46:11.363
There's just no,

1558
00:46:11.364 --> 00:46:11.803
I wouldn't,

1559
00:46:11.923 --> 00:46:12.663
I wouldn't do it.

1560
00:46:12.923 --> 00:46:14.184
And I love New York City.

1561
00:46:14.464 --> 00:46:14.744
Like I said,

1562
00:46:14.745 --> 00:46:15.285
I have dear,

1563
00:46:15.385 --> 00:46:16.205
dear friends there.

1564
00:46:16.206 --> 00:46:16.485
Yeah,

1565
00:46:16.486 --> 00:46:16.866
it's great.

1566
00:46:17.026 --> 00:46:17.866
But they're all,

1567
00:46:18.066 --> 00:46:18.487
anybody,

1568
00:46:18.587 --> 00:46:20.248
as soon as he gets in as mayor,

1569
00:46:20.588 --> 00:46:21.428
I guarantee you,

1570
00:46:21.888 --> 00:46:23.349
you're going to see a mass,

1571
00:46:23.429 --> 00:46:23.749
just like,

1572
00:46:23.789 --> 00:46:24.630
just like California.

1573
00:46:25.170 --> 00:46:26.651
You're going to see a mass migration,

1574
00:46:26.931 --> 00:46:28.872
most of them to Florida and some to Texas.

1575
00:46:29.092 --> 00:46:29.293
Yeah.

1576
00:46:29.294 --> 00:46:30.093
Is what's going to happen.

1577
00:46:30.473 --> 00:46:30.773
Yeah.

1578
00:46:30.774 --> 00:46:31.134
Full stop.

1579
00:46:31.194 --> 00:46:31.634
And...

1580
00:46:32.142 --> 00:46:32.803
The crazy thing,

1581
00:46:32.863 --> 00:46:33.003
too,

1582
00:46:33.023 --> 00:46:33.864
when you really look at,

1583
00:46:33.984 --> 00:46:36.767
I was kind of looking at the demographics of the primary,

1584
00:46:37.147 --> 00:46:37.267
and,

1585
00:46:37.268 --> 00:46:37.407
like,

1586
00:46:37.428 --> 00:46:39.630
the people that supported him were,

1587
00:46:39.750 --> 00:46:39.970
like,

1588
00:46:40.010 --> 00:46:41.652
the wealthy white people.

1589
00:46:42.132 --> 00:46:42.332
Like,

1590
00:46:42.873 --> 00:46:43.534
Black people,

1591
00:46:43.574 --> 00:46:44.435
Hispanic people,

1592
00:46:44.675 --> 00:46:44.855
like,

1593
00:46:44.915 --> 00:46:46.677
overwhelmingly were supporting Cuomo.

1594
00:46:47.317 --> 00:46:47.618
And it's,

1595
00:46:47.619 --> 00:46:47.778
like,

1596
00:46:47.798 --> 00:46:49.560
these people that support Mondami.

1597
00:46:49.600 --> 00:46:49.940
I'm like,

1598
00:46:50.501 --> 00:46:51.081
he lives in,

1599
00:46:51.101 --> 00:46:51.261
like,

1600
00:46:51.262 --> 00:46:51.622
a four...

1601
00:46:52.006 --> 00:46:55.489
$0.5 million penthouse apartment on the Upper East Side.

1602
00:46:55.750 --> 00:46:58.072
His family has a compound in Uganda,

1603
00:46:58.272 --> 00:47:00.775
like a million dollar gated compound.

1604
00:47:00.815 --> 00:47:04.158
His mom is some super liberal socialist filmmaker.

1605
00:47:04.298 --> 00:47:05.880
Like he's an elitist.

1606
00:47:06.200 --> 00:47:09.523
He is everything he's claiming to fight against.

1607
00:47:09.884 --> 00:47:10.344
And I,

1608
00:47:10.524 --> 00:47:10.745
you know,

1609
00:47:11.085 --> 00:47:15.489
I understand when you're in a hard place because communism on paper sounds great.

1610
00:47:15.650 --> 00:47:15.890
Great.

1611
00:47:16.298 --> 00:47:44.414
socially all that it sounds lovely but we know it never works like that it never happens and everyone regrets it and like you said it's very easy to vote into socialism communism that kind of government but it's very hard to get out of it because also one of the first things they do is they take away all your weapons and guns so you can't fight against them in new york city is new york city has always been tough and a lot of people don't know this but i mean i used to have my ccw in New York State.

1612
00:47:44.982 --> 00:47:48.104
Just because you have a New York state is not good for New York City.

1613
00:47:48.745 --> 00:47:52.867
New York City issues their own permits to concealed carry.

1614
00:47:53.528 --> 00:47:54.769
And they've always been that way.

1615
00:47:55.189 --> 00:47:56.950
As long as I've been around,

1616
00:47:56.970 --> 00:47:57.711
that's all I've known.

1617
00:47:58.271 --> 00:48:00.032
But now it's just like California.

1618
00:48:00.933 --> 00:48:03.695
Literally impossible to get a firearm.

1619
00:48:04.235 --> 00:48:04.355
Or,

1620
00:48:04.375 --> 00:48:05.096
I mean,

1621
00:48:05.516 --> 00:48:05.716
like,

1622
00:48:06.237 --> 00:48:06.917
my dad,

1623
00:48:07.858 --> 00:48:10.199
he cannot get high-capacity magazines.

1624
00:48:10.379 --> 00:48:11.580
I was talking to him yesterday.

1625
00:48:11.861 --> 00:48:14.002
He's 83.

1626
00:48:14.142 --> 00:48:14.683
He's awesome.

1627
00:48:14.803 --> 00:48:15.503
He's awesome.

1628
00:48:15.984 --> 00:48:16.244
And

1629
00:48:16.744 --> 00:48:17.745
I just bought a new Glock.

1630
00:48:17.785 --> 00:48:18.586
And we're talking about it.

1631
00:48:18.587 --> 00:48:18.806
He goes,

1632
00:48:19.086 --> 00:48:20.067
you know what mags you get?

1633
00:48:20.387 --> 00:48:21.769
He said they come with like 12 rounds.

1634
00:48:21.770 --> 00:48:21.909
I go,

1635
00:48:21.949 --> 00:48:22.069
no,

1636
00:48:22.249 --> 00:48:22.529
dad.

1637
00:48:22.890 --> 00:48:24.791
I got three 17s double stack.

1638
00:48:24.811 --> 00:48:25.111
He's like,

1639
00:48:25.212 --> 00:48:25.432
what?

1640
00:48:25.472 --> 00:48:25.692
I go,

1641
00:48:25.792 --> 00:48:27.353
welcome to the free state of Nevada.

1642
00:48:28.314 --> 00:48:28.574
You know,

1643
00:48:29.155 --> 00:48:31.517
I sent him an email this morning saying,

1644
00:48:31.697 --> 00:48:33.579
emails you get in the free state of Nevada,

1645
00:48:33.739 --> 00:48:34.700
the silencer shop.

1646
00:48:34.740 --> 00:48:38.022
Because I'm looking at getting a suppressor for my AR and for my Glock.

1647
00:48:38.062 --> 00:48:39.684
And you can't get that in New York.

1648
00:48:39.844 --> 00:48:40.044
Right.

1649
00:48:40.344 --> 00:48:40.465
Oh,

1650
00:48:40.466 --> 00:48:40.985
my God.

1651
00:48:41.926 --> 00:48:42.166
You know.

1652
00:48:42.546 --> 00:48:58.417
something to silence the weapon criminals okay only criminals can get those so i i just i think that new york city is going to become in a bad way a you know a litmus test for this whole go

1653
00:48:58.558 --> 00:49:10.406
to the stupidest people you can find yeah and tell them it's almost like you go on chat gpt and you say give me people that are left-leaning and what are their biggest pain points

1654
00:49:12.106 --> 00:49:12.687
housing,

1655
00:49:12.688 --> 00:49:14.028
shelter,

1656
00:49:14.308 --> 00:49:14.728
shelter,

1657
00:49:15.049 --> 00:49:15.409
food,

1658
00:49:15.469 --> 00:49:16.390
transportation,

1659
00:49:17.250 --> 00:49:17.871
education.

1660
00:49:18.591 --> 00:49:18.891
Okay.

1661
00:49:19.172 --> 00:49:20.032
We're going to make it all free.

1662
00:49:20.993 --> 00:49:21.753
That's what I'm going to run on.

1663
00:49:21.814 --> 00:49:21.934
Yeah.

1664
00:49:22.294 --> 00:49:23.074
That's what he's doing.

1665
00:49:23.195 --> 00:49:23.455
Free.

1666
00:49:23.795 --> 00:49:23.995
Free.

1667
00:49:24.095 --> 00:49:25.316
And please correct me if I'm wrong,

1668
00:49:25.696 --> 00:49:28.638
but that's what basically saying you're not going to pay for any of this.

1669
00:49:28.699 --> 00:49:34.723
We're going to tax the billionaires and the multimillionaires that are not paying taxes at all right now,

1670
00:49:34.724 --> 00:49:35.864
which they are paying tax by the way,

1671
00:49:35.884 --> 00:49:36.344
but okay,

1672
00:49:36.404 --> 00:49:36.684
fine.

1673
00:49:37.445 --> 00:49:37.565
And,

1674
00:49:37.685 --> 00:49:38.686
and he also never really.

1675
00:49:39.082 --> 00:50:00.892
deliberately lays out the plan of like what exactly you're gonna do like earlier i saw he wants to put uh 800 million dollars or something like that into um stopping crime he wants to defund the police but then put all this money into crime prevention when i'm like well well what like what where is that money going then if it's not going to hiring more police what

1676
00:50:00.912 --> 00:50:05.794
are you doing to stop crime sending in count these counselors or something which is

1677
00:50:06.094 --> 00:50:09.761
a horrible idea because you're sending people into dangerous situations that aren't

1678
00:50:10.324 --> 00:50:25.637
law enforcement are and they're not armed it's sounds like a terrible it's it's crazy let's talk about with arm stuff with what's your feeling on trump sending in armed forces to cities what do you think you

1679
00:50:25.638 --> 00:50:33.784
know i i get torn on it um because i think obviously crime is a huge issue right now and and most of these cities

1680
00:50:34.460 --> 00:50:36.901
And there's people that are asking for the help,

1681
00:50:37.021 --> 00:50:37.401
obviously,

1682
00:50:37.461 --> 00:50:39.962
those more Republican governors and mayors.

1683
00:50:40.002 --> 00:50:40.262
And then,

1684
00:50:40.302 --> 00:50:40.722
of course,

1685
00:50:40.782 --> 00:50:41.282
on the left,

1686
00:50:41.322 --> 00:50:46.964
I think a lot of time they just want to stick their head under the sand and act like there's not a problem when there is.

1687
00:50:47.644 --> 00:50:48.084
Because there's,

1688
00:50:48.204 --> 00:50:48.424
I mean,

1689
00:50:48.464 --> 00:50:52.205
Kathy Hochul had the National Guard come in on the subway for four days.

1690
00:50:52.585 --> 00:50:55.646
I didn't see much outrage on the left against that.

1691
00:50:56.146 --> 00:50:58.187
So it's kind of give and take.

1692
00:50:58.207 --> 00:50:58.427
Like,

1693
00:50:58.627 --> 00:50:58.847
yes,

1694
00:50:58.867 --> 00:51:02.288
if there's issues with public transportation and people aren't able to...

1695
00:51:02.788 --> 00:51:12.151
freely walk around their neighborhoods or open a business and safely operate that business without fear of your windows being broken every day and all of your goods being stolen.

1696
00:51:12.991 --> 00:51:15.451
It's like I really do see both sides to it.

1697
00:51:15.712 --> 00:51:21.833
I don't like the militarization of sending like an army into a city just to kind of take over.

1698
00:51:23.474 --> 00:51:23.774
But yeah,

1699
00:51:23.814 --> 00:51:24.074
I mean,

1700
00:51:24.114 --> 00:51:30.356
if these governors and the mayors are just completely refusing to work with anyone to fix those problems,

1701
00:51:30.716 --> 00:51:31.176
what do you do?

1702
00:51:31.676 --> 00:51:31.936
you know

1703
00:51:32.496 --> 00:51:33.757
I think the optics are terrible.

1704
00:51:33.857 --> 00:51:33.977
Oh,

1705
00:51:33.978 --> 00:51:34.197
yeah,

1706
00:51:34.557 --> 00:51:34.897
totally.

1707
00:51:35.057 --> 00:51:35.978
Optics are horrible.

1708
00:51:36.598 --> 00:51:38.900
But if you look at the crime rate in Washington,

1709
00:51:38.901 --> 00:51:39.120
D.C.

1710
00:51:39.300 --> 00:51:40.080
over the past month,

1711
00:51:40.781 --> 00:51:41.101
it's gone.

1712
00:51:43.002 --> 00:51:43.182
Right.

1713
00:51:43.822 --> 00:51:48.645
Are they in Memphis now or either going to go to Memphis or they're in Memphis?

1714
00:51:49.085 --> 00:51:49.205
Yeah,

1715
00:51:49.246 --> 00:51:50.006
I think they're going.

1716
00:51:50.046 --> 00:51:50.366
But see,

1717
00:51:50.406 --> 00:51:51.107
that was again,

1718
00:51:51.127 --> 00:51:56.189
you have like a governor who is cooperating and people.

1719
00:51:56.550 --> 00:51:56.730
Yeah.

1720
00:51:56.930 --> 00:51:57.490
Come on in.

1721
00:51:57.550 --> 00:51:58.651
We need we need help.

1722
00:51:58.911 --> 00:51:59.371
Yeah.

1723
00:51:59.551 --> 00:51:59.831
Meanwhile,

1724
00:51:59.872 --> 00:52:00.372
Chicago.

1725
00:52:01.328 --> 00:52:22.794
complete shit show the mayor is unbelievably just so obtuse to what's going on like people people his own like other black people are showing up to meetings screaming at him yeah the chicago red or whatever that uh coalition is that's trying to fight and that's what i was kind of pointing at is they

1726
00:52:22.874 --> 00:52:29.416
won't even admit that there's the problem you know the governor um was there tina I forget her last name of Oregon.

1727
00:52:30.112 --> 00:52:31.553
She films these little videos,

1728
00:52:31.713 --> 00:52:33.835
like same with the governor of Illinois.

1729
00:52:33.975 --> 00:52:34.095
Oh,

1730
00:52:34.135 --> 00:52:34.956
we're out here.

1731
00:52:35.376 --> 00:52:36.037
It's safe.

1732
00:52:36.137 --> 00:52:36.957
Nothing to see here.

1733
00:52:36.958 --> 00:52:36.997
Oh,

1734
00:52:36.998 --> 00:52:38.518
you're there at like 5 a.m.

1735
00:52:38.558 --> 00:52:41.521
at like the one little safest area of downtown Portland.

1736
00:52:41.901 --> 00:52:46.824
And it's like there are millions of videos that exist of downtown Portland.

1737
00:52:47.065 --> 00:52:51.388
And even the people that live there who are very far left liberals who are saying,

1738
00:52:51.468 --> 00:52:52.188
we need help.

1739
00:52:52.228 --> 00:52:53.569
We can't walk out in the morning.

1740
00:52:53.570 --> 00:52:54.030
We can't.

1741
00:52:54.390 --> 00:52:54.630
You know,

1742
00:52:54.650 --> 00:52:56.852
there's homeless people and drugs and needles.

1743
00:52:56.932 --> 00:52:57.052
and

1744
00:52:57.372 --> 00:53:04.137
and noise all throughout the night in those little whatever the autonomous zone is where they've taken over.

1745
00:53:04.958 --> 00:53:09.001
And when you get on TV and you just deny that anything's going on,

1746
00:53:09.341 --> 00:53:10.101
and you're telling us,

1747
00:53:10.362 --> 00:53:10.482
oh,

1748
00:53:10.522 --> 00:53:13.084
there's not a problem when the internet exists,

1749
00:53:13.085 --> 00:53:17.907
and places like X and Facebook and Instagram where we're all watching it in real time,

1750
00:53:18.688 --> 00:53:20.689
which is both a good and bad thing,

1751
00:53:20.729 --> 00:53:21.030
I guess,

1752
00:53:21.110 --> 00:53:21.850
with social media,

1753
00:53:21.890 --> 00:53:24.172
but we get to see the real thing.

1754
00:53:24.412 --> 00:53:26.434
and you get on there as the leader and tell us,

1755
00:53:26.474 --> 00:53:26.594
oh,

1756
00:53:26.614 --> 00:53:27.395
there's no problem.

1757
00:53:27.435 --> 00:53:27.875
It's great.

1758
00:53:27.975 --> 00:53:29.356
Here I am having breakfast.

1759
00:53:29.677 --> 00:53:37.043
You have to admit that there's a problem when all of the rest of the world sees it and the people that live in your state or your city see it and they're begging for help.

1760
00:53:37.363 --> 00:53:37.724
Well said.

1761
00:53:38.004 --> 00:53:38.124
Yeah.

1762
00:53:40.306 --> 00:53:43.008
So then I get where the federal government would want to come in.

1763
00:53:44.850 --> 00:53:46.451
It's more like we talked about in the beginning.

1764
00:53:46.511 --> 00:53:47.292
It's more of this,

1765
00:53:47.672 --> 00:53:51.976
I'm here and you're here and there's no way we're ever going to come together.

1766
00:53:52.196 --> 00:53:52.576
on this.

1767
00:53:52.716 --> 00:53:59.038
I'd rather let my city burn than let National Guard troops come in to help with crime.

1768
00:53:59.598 --> 00:54:00.558
And how sad is that?

1769
00:54:00.578 --> 00:54:06.580
Because you can't just throw money at everything because that's typically the answer on the left is more money,

1770
00:54:06.700 --> 00:54:07.200
more this,

1771
00:54:07.260 --> 00:54:08.021
let's fund this.

1772
00:54:08.341 --> 00:54:11.421
But all that money just gets wrapped up in some random NGOs.

1773
00:54:11.422 --> 00:54:12.942
You have no idea where it's going.

1774
00:54:12.943 --> 00:54:14.842
You have no idea what it's being used for.

1775
00:54:15.063 --> 00:54:16.203
It's dark money.

1776
00:54:16.303 --> 00:54:20.244
It's being bundled somewhere on the dark web and you have no idea you

1777
00:54:20.572 --> 00:54:22.113
Where it's going or what it's helping.

1778
00:54:22.273 --> 00:54:23.634
Money doesn't fix everything.

1779
00:54:23.954 --> 00:54:24.394
It doesn't.

1780
00:54:24.794 --> 00:54:26.215
And it's just.

1781
00:54:26.355 --> 00:54:26.696
More money,

1782
00:54:26.736 --> 00:54:27.356
more problems.

1783
00:54:27.396 --> 00:54:27.596
Hello.

1784
00:54:28.076 --> 00:54:29.277
We need to start talking.

1785
00:54:29.417 --> 00:54:31.238
We need to start talking.

1786
00:54:31.239 --> 00:54:31.718
Yeah.

1787
00:54:31.758 --> 00:54:32.199
And.

1788
00:54:32.719 --> 00:54:34.840
I think it'd be great if the governor of Oregon said,

1789
00:54:35.320 --> 00:54:36.441
I want to go out to D.C.

1790
00:54:36.641 --> 00:54:38.442
and sit down and talk to Trump.

1791
00:54:38.822 --> 00:54:39.863
Let's have a meeting.

1792
00:54:40.203 --> 00:54:44.085
Let's see what we can agree on to fix these obvious issues.

1793
00:54:45.046 --> 00:54:46.146
She would never do that.

1794
00:54:46.467 --> 00:54:47.067
She would not.

1795
00:54:47.467 --> 00:54:48.748
If you look at her and you.

1796
00:54:49.068 --> 00:54:50.869
You see what she said throughout the years.

1797
00:54:51.389 --> 00:54:52.129
Those governors,

1798
00:54:52.970 --> 00:54:54.170
they don't want a solution.

1799
00:54:54.770 --> 00:54:56.131
They just want to be the opposition.

1800
00:54:56.211 --> 00:54:57.331
They just want to push back.

1801
00:54:57.931 --> 00:54:59.752
Their policy is F Trump.

1802
00:55:01.193 --> 00:55:01.533
That's it.

1803
00:55:01.553 --> 00:55:01.853
That's it.

1804
00:55:01.933 --> 00:55:03.294
If I was a governor of Oregon,

1805
00:55:03.714 --> 00:55:05.114
I would reach out to the mayor of D.C.

1806
00:55:05.334 --> 00:55:06.955
who's a Democrat and say,

1807
00:55:07.055 --> 00:55:07.255
hey,

1808
00:55:07.475 --> 00:55:08.115
I'm going to come in.

1809
00:55:08.556 --> 00:55:09.556
Can you give me a little tour?

1810
00:55:10.185 --> 00:55:26.572
what's going on off the record no social media no press no nothing and then let's grab a drink that night and tell me about really is this working he hates trump she's been a opposition to trump from day one but now she's on the record as saying this

1811
00:55:26.612 --> 00:55:39.357
has been working he came in things are better you know my city is operating better because of the help from the federal government it is like i said it's wild times man

1812
00:55:39.717 --> 00:55:41.378
The last thing I wanted to talk about with you,

1813
00:55:41.598 --> 00:55:42.699
and it's something that was

1814
00:55:43.459 --> 00:55:44.600
Rogan talked about it.

1815
00:55:44.601 --> 00:55:45.720
He had Andrew Santino on.

1816
00:55:46.141 --> 00:55:47.221
It was a stand-up comic.

1817
00:55:47.261 --> 00:55:48.182
It was hilarious.

1818
00:55:48.782 --> 00:55:54.786
And this is right when it was probably last week is when the episode drops.

1819
00:55:55.306 --> 00:55:55.446
And

1820
00:55:55.826 --> 00:55:57.727
Rogan is a gun,

1821
00:55:58.468 --> 00:55:59.088
weapons,

1822
00:55:59.388 --> 00:56:01.349
archery like he's a hunter.

1823
00:56:01.489 --> 00:56:02.770
He is an outdoorsman.

1824
00:56:03.150 --> 00:56:04.251
He knows weapons.

1825
00:56:04.851 --> 00:56:07.873
And he was baffled that...

1826
00:56:08.201 --> 00:56:12.203
The kid that assassinated Kirk has his grandfather's Mauser.

1827
00:56:13.284 --> 00:56:13.464
Now,

1828
00:56:14.665 --> 00:56:16.826
he's saying at 200 yards,

1829
00:56:16.926 --> 00:56:17.946
if you're well-trained,

1830
00:56:18.046 --> 00:56:19.407
almost anybody can make that shot.

1831
00:56:19.727 --> 00:56:19.948
Right.

1832
00:56:20.148 --> 00:56:20.468
Anybody.

1833
00:56:21.689 --> 00:56:22.449
But also,

1834
00:56:23.449 --> 00:56:24.690
why was there no security?

1835
00:56:25.230 --> 00:56:27.011
Why was no security on the rooftops?

1836
00:56:28.092 --> 00:56:30.133
Why were there no drones that were up?

1837
00:56:30.393 --> 00:56:35.496
Kirk is a nationally recognized polarizing figure.

1838
00:56:35.896 --> 00:56:36.096
Right.

1839
00:56:36.277 --> 00:56:36.937
Love him or hate him.

1840
00:56:37.137 --> 00:56:38.058
He's polarizing.

1841
00:56:38.798 --> 00:56:39.078
Why?

1842
00:56:39.498 --> 00:56:40.719
And that's on UVU.

1843
00:56:41.540 --> 00:56:43.981
Why was the campus was in charge of security?

1844
00:56:44.341 --> 00:56:45.142
There was none of that.

1845
00:56:45.962 --> 00:56:46.742
Supposedly,

1846
00:56:47.203 --> 00:56:48.864
with his grandfather's gun,

1847
00:56:49.744 --> 00:56:49.884
which,

1848
00:56:49.904 --> 00:56:50.144
again,

1849
00:56:50.665 --> 00:56:53.426
if you keep it well lubricated and oiled and all that,

1850
00:56:53.427 --> 00:56:54.527
you can get guns 100 years old.

1851
00:56:54.528 --> 00:56:55.427
It's still going to shoot true.

1852
00:56:55.487 --> 00:56:55.907
You're fine.

1853
00:56:56.008 --> 00:56:56.208
Right.

1854
00:56:57.248 --> 00:56:59.249
He has a neck shot at 200 yards.

1855
00:56:59.429 --> 00:56:59.710
Okay.

1856
00:57:00.330 --> 00:57:00.870
Good shot,

1857
00:57:00.930 --> 00:57:02.231
but very makeable shot.

1858
00:57:03.252 --> 00:57:05.513
He then disassembles the gun.

1859
00:57:06.457 --> 00:57:06.937
Somehow,

1860
00:57:07.277 --> 00:57:11.398
which there's no way it would fit in the backpack that he had.

1861
00:57:11.738 --> 00:57:12.699
There's just no way.

1862
00:57:14.039 --> 00:57:15.099
Jumps off the roof,

1863
00:57:15.660 --> 00:57:17.080
assembles it again,

1864
00:57:17.500 --> 00:57:19.261
and puts it in the woods.

1865
00:57:20.681 --> 00:57:20.841
And

1866
00:57:21.521 --> 00:57:22.501
Rogan had,

1867
00:57:22.942 --> 00:57:23.942
he showed a video,

1868
00:57:24.122 --> 00:57:24.862
and we'll find it,

1869
00:57:24.882 --> 00:57:26.322
we'll drop it in this clip of,

1870
00:57:26.683 --> 00:57:28.303
there's a guy that,

1871
00:57:28.863 --> 00:57:29.843
and they played the video,

1872
00:57:29.983 --> 00:57:30.704
it's a Mauser,

1873
00:57:30.924 --> 00:57:32.084
is the gun that the kid used.

1874
00:57:32.644 --> 00:57:34.945
And this guy breaks down a Mauser in real time.

1875
00:57:35.225 --> 00:57:35.425
Right.

1876
00:57:35.545 --> 00:57:37.045
It's literally impossible.

1877
00:57:37.046 --> 00:57:38.146
And the guy had a good point.

1878
00:57:38.147 --> 00:57:38.506
He said,

1879
00:57:39.826 --> 00:57:43.347
this kid did this while all of the adrenaline,

1880
00:57:44.107 --> 00:57:45.008
you just killed somebody.

1881
00:57:45.688 --> 00:57:47.208
The adrenaline rush from that.

1882
00:57:47.288 --> 00:57:48.108
You're shaking.

1883
00:57:48.109 --> 00:57:48.228
Oh,

1884
00:57:48.508 --> 00:57:48.649
yeah.

1885
00:57:48.729 --> 00:57:49.849
You can't think straight,

1886
00:57:50.149 --> 00:57:54.310
but you can take down a Mouser in like minutes.

1887
00:57:54.410 --> 00:57:55.070
Yeah.

1888
00:57:55.110 --> 00:57:56.631
It was crazy.

1889
00:57:57.231 --> 00:57:57.831
And they're saying,

1890
00:57:57.832 --> 00:57:58.211
and so

1891
00:57:58.691 --> 00:57:59.671
Rogan came out and said it.

1892
00:57:59.912 --> 00:58:00.392
It's just,

1893
00:58:00.452 --> 00:58:03.292
I find it hard to believe that he's the only person involved.

1894
00:58:03.673 --> 00:58:05.033
Yeah.

1895
00:58:05.609 --> 00:58:07.230
There's other cameras that were there,

1896
00:58:07.510 --> 00:58:12.474
and people on Kirk's team very smartly took the memory chips,

1897
00:58:12.714 --> 00:58:15.836
the cards out of the digital cameras and gave them to the FBI.

1898
00:58:16.316 --> 00:58:16.436
Yeah.

1899
00:58:16.736 --> 00:58:17.477
So now we sit and wait.

1900
00:58:17.478 --> 00:58:17.597
Right.

1901
00:58:17.997 --> 00:58:21.540
But from what I saw,

1902
00:58:22.120 --> 00:58:23.661
there's more than one person involved.

1903
00:58:24.001 --> 00:58:24.121
Yeah,

1904
00:58:24.261 --> 00:58:30.165
and I think a lot of this goes back to just overall our lack of trust,

1905
00:58:30.205 --> 00:58:31.026
I guess I would say,

1906
00:58:31.146 --> 00:58:31.966
in the government.

1907
00:58:32.267 --> 00:58:34.648
is just every time something happens now.

1908
00:58:35.460 --> 00:58:40.404
We question everything because we've been lied to so much throughout the years,

1909
00:58:41.165 --> 00:58:48.551
especially the last four years from everything with COVID to even going back to being repeatedly told the borders closed,

1910
00:58:49.632 --> 00:58:50.652
this city's safe,

1911
00:58:51.033 --> 00:58:52.214
this isn't a problem,

1912
00:58:52.554 --> 00:58:54.055
but we see it with our eyes.

1913
00:58:54.275 --> 00:58:54.395
So,

1914
00:58:54.716 --> 00:58:54.976
yes,

1915
00:58:55.336 --> 00:58:57.198
everybody saw something in real time.

1916
00:58:57.238 --> 00:58:58.098
You watched a video,

1917
00:58:58.599 --> 00:59:02.802
you're going to second guess everything that's coming out of their mouths.

1918
00:59:02.803 --> 00:59:03.283
In files.

1919
00:59:03.523 --> 00:59:03.863
Still.

1920
00:59:04.003 --> 00:59:04.264
Yeah.

1921
00:59:04.404 --> 00:59:04.624
That.

1922
00:59:05.404 --> 00:59:05.804
Still waiting.

1923
00:59:05.805 --> 00:59:06.945
That's a whole nother episode.

1924
00:59:06.946 --> 00:59:07.565
You know,

1925
00:59:07.566 --> 00:59:08.425
it really is.

1926
00:59:08.665 --> 00:59:09.785
But Ghislaine Maxwell,

1927
00:59:10.106 --> 00:59:13.106
she's now in a lesser security prison.

1928
00:59:13.587 --> 00:59:14.007
And

1929
00:59:14.487 --> 00:59:16.127
OK, but what?

1930
00:59:16.307 --> 00:59:16.568
Like,

1931
00:59:17.008 --> 00:59:17.988
there's more to that.

1932
00:59:18.048 --> 00:59:18.848
There's got to be more to that.

1933
00:59:18.849 --> 00:59:19.749
And that's what's happened.

1934
00:59:20.289 --> 00:59:24.330
The more we lean into begging for more and more transparency,

1935
00:59:24.530 --> 00:59:30.412
which I do think the Trump administration has been a good job of being transparent to a point.

1936
00:59:30.732 --> 00:59:31.412
But for years,

1937
00:59:31.452 --> 00:59:33.213
we're all just so conditioned to being lied to.

1938
00:59:33.293 --> 00:59:34.634
So every time we see something,

1939
00:59:34.954 --> 00:59:38.576
and I hate it because I hate that it all turns into everything is a conspiracy theory.

1940
00:59:38.936 --> 00:59:42.598
And then you're second guessing everything and all the AI and all the deep fakes.

1941
00:59:42.599 --> 00:59:43.058
And you're like,

1942
00:59:43.678 --> 00:59:44.358
what is the truth?

1943
00:59:44.538 --> 00:59:45.679
And the next thing you know,

1944
00:59:46.079 --> 00:59:47.760
you're second guessing what you believe.

1945
00:59:48.220 --> 00:59:49.761
And I think a lot of that,

1946
00:59:49.781 --> 00:59:50.021
again,

1947
00:59:50.101 --> 00:59:56.284
all falls back to our federal government and not being transparent and lying to the people and not giving us.

1948
00:59:57.416 --> 00:59:58.557
Or giving us false hope,

1949
00:59:58.617 --> 00:59:59.298
like telling us,

1950
00:59:59.418 --> 00:59:59.538
oh,

1951
00:59:59.558 --> 01:00:01.599
these files are these with Epstein.

1952
01:00:01.639 --> 01:00:02.780
It's all going to be released.

1953
01:00:02.800 --> 01:00:05.921
And then when that announcement gets made,

1954
01:00:05.941 --> 01:00:07.162
it's a big nothing burger.

1955
01:00:07.282 --> 01:00:07.742
Nothing.

1956
01:00:07.882 --> 01:00:10.984
Or it's 25 pages that are all blacked out and redacted.

1957
01:00:11.605 --> 01:00:11.725
So

1958
01:00:12.345 --> 01:00:15.647
I don't know what the truth is when it comes to those things.

1959
01:00:16.227 --> 01:00:17.068
It's crazy.

1960
01:00:18.088 --> 01:00:18.449
You're right.

1961
01:00:18.450 --> 01:00:19.069
You had a great point,

1962
01:00:19.449 --> 01:00:19.689
Devin.

1963
01:00:19.690 --> 01:00:23.352
It's where we now second guess everything.

1964
01:00:23.512 --> 01:00:23.832
And so.

1965
01:00:24.784 --> 01:00:25.725
Like the kid's there.

1966
01:00:25.825 --> 01:00:27.025
He assassinates Kirk.

1967
01:00:27.326 --> 01:00:27.966
But does he?

1968
01:00:28.666 --> 01:00:30.948
And the old man who's there.

1969
01:00:31.268 --> 01:00:31.508
Right.

1970
01:00:31.848 --> 01:00:32.969
That was apprehended first.

1971
01:00:32.970 --> 01:00:33.789
That was apprehended.

1972
01:00:34.170 --> 01:00:36.291
Saying that he was possibly a diversionary tactic.

1973
01:00:36.851 --> 01:00:37.672
He was in on it.

1974
01:00:38.252 --> 01:00:39.293
And you're like.

1975
01:00:40.533 --> 01:00:47.737
And it's like you hate to think those things about any horrific situation when somebody is assassinated in cold blood like that.

1976
01:00:48.378 --> 01:00:52.080
But you do have to question things and you because they lie.

1977
01:00:52.220 --> 01:00:53.261
They lie to us all the time.

1978
01:00:53.681 --> 01:00:56.924
And the first time I can remember being lied to,

1979
01:00:57.024 --> 01:00:57.825
and this was only a few years ago,

1980
01:00:57.845 --> 01:00:58.486
I learned about it,

1981
01:00:58.646 --> 01:01:00.207
was with JFK assassination.

1982
01:01:00.387 --> 01:01:00.527
Yeah.

1983
01:01:00.828 --> 01:01:01.749
Because that happened.

1984
01:01:01.750 --> 01:01:02.469
Have you ever gone to Dallas,

1985
01:01:02.470 --> 01:01:03.150
to Daly Plaza?

1986
01:01:03.630 --> 01:01:04.731
I haven't been where it happened.

1987
01:01:04.771 --> 01:01:05.852
I was there about two years ago.

1988
01:01:05.952 --> 01:01:07.374
I was there for a real estate thing.

1989
01:01:07.814 --> 01:01:08.074
And

1990
01:01:08.495 --> 01:01:08.755
I'm like,

1991
01:01:08.775 --> 01:01:09.295
I'm in Dallas.

1992
01:01:09.296 --> 01:01:09.656
I'm going to go.

1993
01:01:09.657 --> 01:01:10.116
I walked over.

1994
01:01:10.117 --> 01:01:10.617
It's small.

1995
01:01:10.697 --> 01:01:11.778
It's really small.

1996
01:01:11.818 --> 01:01:12.198
I was like,

1997
01:01:12.298 --> 01:01:12.418
oh,

1998
01:01:12.458 --> 01:01:13.019
my God.

1999
01:01:13.479 --> 01:01:13.679
Like,

2000
01:01:13.699 --> 01:01:15.181
the fact that they have,

2001
01:01:15.281 --> 01:01:16.462
it was in a convertible,

2002
01:01:16.862 --> 01:01:18.023
open-air car.

2003
01:01:18.024 --> 01:01:18.724
Yeah.

2004
01:01:19.552 --> 01:01:27.074
Lee Harvey Oswald shot from the book depository is like they have an X where where he got where JFK got hit.

2005
01:01:27.575 --> 01:01:29.935
And then you're up like I was right up in and watch.

2006
01:01:29.995 --> 01:01:30.456
Look down.

2007
01:01:30.996 --> 01:01:31.536
Easy shot.

2008
01:01:31.596 --> 01:01:31.796
Yeah.

2009
01:01:32.096 --> 01:01:33.076
Easy shot to make.

2010
01:01:33.536 --> 01:01:35.937
But now like stuff has come out to say,

2011
01:01:35.977 --> 01:01:36.097
well,

2012
01:01:36.098 --> 01:01:37.678
the CIA was the one that did it because,

2013
01:01:37.958 --> 01:01:38.198
you know,

2014
01:01:38.199 --> 01:01:40.179
Jack Ruby kills Lee Harvey Oswald.

2015
01:01:40.359 --> 01:01:41.219
And it's a cover up.

2016
01:01:41.319 --> 01:01:41.979
And what the shit.

2017
01:01:42.139 --> 01:01:42.799
And oh,

2018
01:01:42.800 --> 01:01:43.280
my God.

2019
01:01:43.760 --> 01:01:43.880
Oh,

2020
01:01:43.920 --> 01:01:44.500
my God.

2021
01:01:44.996 --> 01:01:45.356
And now,

2022
01:01:45.677 --> 01:01:45.877
yeah,

2023
01:01:45.897 --> 01:01:48.959
now we're just in this era of like question everything.

2024
01:01:49.159 --> 01:01:50.039
Everything.

2025
01:01:50.300 --> 01:01:51.120
And on top of it,

2026
01:01:51.520 --> 01:01:53.902
nefarious countries that want to see us divided.

2027
01:01:54.002 --> 01:01:54.182
Yeah.

2028
01:01:54.442 --> 01:01:55.763
Putting in with bot farms,

2029
01:01:56.364 --> 01:01:57.224
adding to that,

2030
01:01:57.925 --> 01:02:00.666
amplifying all of that with just shitty,

2031
01:02:01.067 --> 01:02:01.447
mean,

2032
01:02:01.887 --> 01:02:05.169
divisive content in comments.

2033
01:02:05.170 --> 01:02:06.951
Because everyone now reads the comments.

2034
01:02:07.091 --> 01:02:08.011
It's not about the posting.

2035
01:02:08.051 --> 01:02:08.972
It's about the comments.

2036
01:02:09.584 --> 01:02:10.344
You're reading that.

2037
01:02:10.464 --> 01:02:12.305
Even when you reposted our last video,

2038
01:02:12.485 --> 01:02:13.785
I started getting the notification.

2039
01:02:13.786 --> 01:02:14.125
I was like,

2040
01:02:14.126 --> 01:02:14.165
oh,

2041
01:02:14.166 --> 01:02:15.226
do I want to click?

2042
01:02:15.766 --> 01:02:17.066
Going back to the comments.

2043
01:02:17.546 --> 01:02:18.026
But luckily,

2044
01:02:18.147 --> 01:02:19.607
shout out to my friends and family.

2045
01:02:19.787 --> 01:02:22.648
There was a lot of good feedback that was posted.

2046
01:02:22.649 --> 01:02:22.768
Well,

2047
01:02:23.848 --> 01:02:24.868
and thank you for coming in.

2048
01:02:25.068 --> 01:02:25.189
Yeah.

2049
01:02:25.409 --> 01:02:25.949
I love you.

2050
01:02:26.089 --> 01:02:26.949
I love your brain.

2051
01:02:27.409 --> 01:02:27.689
You know,

2052
01:02:27.789 --> 01:02:30.090
I just think that you're one of the good ones.

2053
01:02:30.390 --> 01:02:30.950
Yeah.

2054
01:02:30.951 --> 01:02:32.311
And I think what you do is super,

2055
01:02:32.331 --> 01:02:33.931
because you really are reasonable.

2056
01:02:34.211 --> 01:02:35.431
You have common sense.

2057
01:02:35.591 --> 01:02:37.212
You're middle of the road.

2058
01:02:37.784 --> 01:02:39.405
I'm sure we would disagree on a lot,

2059
01:02:39.445 --> 01:02:41.386
but I'm sure we would agree on a lot.

2060
01:02:41.966 --> 01:02:46.468
And it's important now more than ever to sit down and have conversations.

2061
01:02:46.789 --> 01:02:47.589
We're all human.

2062
01:02:47.949 --> 01:02:48.509
At the end of the day,

2063
01:02:48.529 --> 01:02:50.030
we mostly want the same things.

2064
01:02:50.050 --> 01:02:50.871
We want to be happy.

2065
01:02:51.071 --> 01:02:52.171
We want to be comfortable.

2066
01:02:53.212 --> 01:02:55.593
We want to just live our lives and,

2067
01:02:55.873 --> 01:02:56.153
you know,

2068
01:02:56.994 --> 01:02:57.514
and be happy.

2069
01:02:57.515 --> 01:02:58.314
That's it.

2070
01:02:58.695 --> 01:02:59.375
It's that easy.

2071
01:02:59.475 --> 01:02:59.775
Thank you,

2072
01:02:59.776 --> 01:03:00.075
my friend.

2073
01:03:00.115 --> 01:03:00.435
Thank you.

2074
01:03:00.736 --> 01:03:01.396
Thanks for having me.
