FEARS GROW Russia Will USE NUKES, NYT Warns WW3 May Be NOW w/ Mat Nuclear
122m 41s
The transcript centers on escalating geopolitical tensions, primarily focused on Russia-Ukraine. Bloomberg reporting suggests Russian officials believe Putin may resort to tactical nuclear weapons as peace talks stall, potentially explaining the CIA director's unusual Moscow visit—a move some view as a direct warning against nuclear escalation. Russia is preparing intensified missile attacks on Kyiv, risking accidental NATO strikes and broader conflict. Concurrently, the U.S. Selective Service System is preparing a draft simulation, with new automated registration linked to Real ID databases beginning December 2026, raising concerns amid a divided, diverse population where conscription may prove impractical. The panel debates whether World War III has already begun, citing multiple simultaneous conflicts and historical patterns of gradual escalation. Domestically, the State Department designated an Italian-based hacker collective as a terrorist organization; commentator Brian Krassenstein publicly solicited donations to it, leading to calls for his arrest to set a legal precedent. Separately, Texas Roadhouse faced fabricated viral claims of racist food tampering, which the company robustly denied, contrasting with Good Good brand's weak apology to cancel culture pressure. The discussion also touches on immigration as a national security issue, the growing influence of the Democratic Socialists of America within the Democratic Party, and the fragmented political landscape, with participants debating America's historical military restraint versus its frequent conflicts. Overall, the transcript reflects anxieties about nuclear war, domestic conscription, terrorism financing, and cultural battles.
speculation over why the CIA director met with the Russians in Moscow is still running rampant. And we have our official reporting that it was just to have a conversation, normal, you know, spy chief versus spy chief to discuss what's currently going on. And to give Russia a warning not to escalate things, we're all well and good, nothing to see here. However, Bloomberg is reporting that Russian officials fear that Putin is being backed into a corner and is considering using tactical nuclear weapons on the battlefield, in which case, the question I have over why the CIA director is going to be meeting with the Russians. I mean, if it's just to have a, hey, don't escalate things, that's a phone call or a press conference. Do you want to go on TV and say, if you escalate, we retaliate again, we see the kind of stuff all the time. What issue could be so grave that a US C-17 flies in the Moscow, the US requests a three-day ceasefire. So this meeting could happen. Well, there are other rumors that this was the US asking for Russia to assist in the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, which doesn't really make sense to me, but Moon knows. When I see this story from Bloomberg and they say that Russian officials fear Putin is preparing to use nukes, that makes a lot of sense. You would definitely set over a high ranking government official to go talk to a nation that was preparing to go nuclear. So we'll see. We don't know for sure. But one story that was overlooked one month ago is that the US is preparing to war game out a draft. Yeah, in December, the automatic draft system goes into effect. This means that anybody between the ages of 18 and 26 automatically in the draft system, which is probably why they wanted real ID. They want to federalize the driver's license system so that they can also have a federalized database of every able bodied male aged 18 to 26. Well now they've decided to implement the war game, a simulation of how the draft would actually go down. Maybe it's all just routine. Hey, look, you know, we have the system. Maybe we'll need it in the future. But all of these things happening around the same time, kind of freaky. So we'll talk about that. Plus, we do have a lot more news.

It's going on everybody. Who are you? What do you do? Yeah, I recently joined the Daily Wire. I'm a young 19 year old political commentator, and I've been doing debates for about a year and a half. Well, right on. Good to have you then. Yeah, fun. Speaking of the draft, I am 19, and I do have a real ID, so that could. You are in that machine, bro. I'm in that machine. They're going to edge of tomorrow you where they make you film it when you go on the battleground. Yeah. We got the boys hanging out. What's up, everybody? I'm Phil. What's going on? What's up, Phil? What's up? Chris. Chris here. I'm the resident anarchist here at Timkass. I'm looking forward to all of your hateful comments in the chat. Keep them coming. It's like a warm bath for me. And we got to get to the bottom of this anarcho Christianity thing. A warm bath. Yeah, thanks for coming. Well, actually, it's really great to launch off with Anarchy considering we're facing nuclear annihilation in World War. Here's the story from Bloomberg. It moves to escalate war in Ukraine as talks at dead end. Russia is preparing to escalate its attacks on Ukraine after concluding the negotiations for a peace deal have reached a dead end, according to three people close to the Kremlin. For now, Russia is weighing an inter. I'm sorry, intensification of powerful conventional ballistic missile attacks on Kiev, including the center of the capital and infrastructure targets in other Ukrainian cities, the people have said, asking not to be identified because the matter is sensitive. Now I will stress, perhaps this is the legitimate reason CIA Director Ratcliffe went to meet with the Russians because they're going to start bombing the capital. This may spark an incursion into NATO territory. We've already seen Russian missiles accidentally hit both. It could be very simple. He shows up and says, listen, if these missiles land in NATO territory, you're going to trigger Article 5 and it is full-scale war. But I got to be honest, I still think that's a phone call. I don't, unless there's a very serious threat of retaliation, like if the U.S. said, imagine if Ratcliffe with Putin said, if one missile lands anywhere near a NATO civilian, we will nuke you to Kingdom come. That's something that you don't want on the phone, perhaps. But Trump said it on the phone. Trump famously bragged on the phone how he told Putin and Xi Jinping that he said to Xi, if you invade Taiwan, I'll nuke Beijing and he said to Putin, if you invade Ukraine, I'll nuke Moscow. And he goes, man, maybe they don't believe me, but maybe 5%. So that still seems like phone call territory. This is where things start getting interesting when you jump down lower in the story. They say, the escalating spiral of strikes is leading a growing number of Russian officials to the conclusion that Putin could eventually opt to use tactical nuclear weapons as a last resort in Ukraine according to the people close to the Kremlin. The risk that Putin would break a global taboo on the war times of nuclear weapons. That has stood since the U.S. dropped two bombs on Japan, has long been a major concern of Western officials. The volume of chatter in Moscow from Hawks advocating such a step has increased recently. An extreme response is viewed as possible because the only outcome worse than continuing the war for Putin would be losing it. And what people need to understand right now is that Ukraine is using powerful drones, small but powerful to strike targets in Moscow. If you are Putin and you are not winning after all these years, and now Moscow is getting bombed and running chips are getting bombed, I think it is possible. We see the use of tactical nuclear weapons. Now, people need to understand about tactical nukes. We are not talking about intercontinental ballistic missiles or multiple independently targeted reentry vehicles. We are talking about artillery, with low blast yields still utilizing nuclear warheads. So they will be massive. Well, people need to understand about the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The weapons that we reportedly have had since the 80s are around 1000 times more powerful than the bombs we used in World War II. If we are to actually start launching ICBMs, it's hell on earth. But tactical nukes, not really, we have conventional bombs that are bigger than some of these tactical nukes. So we've got a few reports. I want to show you this one from the sun. Chilling signs, Putin is poised to fire nuke-powered flying Chernobyl super weapon as aircraft mass in Arctic just from today. When you search this on Google, you get a ton of sources. Many, we got a Turkish source. We've got many Ukrainian sources arguing that Putin is considering using nuclear weapons or that is a possibility. The foreign policy is arguing it is not correct. I throw this back to the story that we got over the past few days, the CIA director's secret visit to Moscow. Now, we don't know the exact reason. As I mentioned to their speculation, the US says to Russia, we need help opening the trade of Hormuz, I don't know that that makes sense. If it is true, if our CIA has information that Vladimir Putin is preparing to launch a nuke, let's say Putin actually armed some tactical nuclear weapons, and we knew. Ratcliffe flies in and says, we know you've armed these weapons and we're only going to tell you once, no. And then he dips out. I've heard rumors, I don't know how true this is, that Ratcliffe got to talk with Putin for 15 minutes and that was it and then he was out the door. We don't know for sure, but all of this is pretty dang nuts. Now, we'll jump to this next story in a bit, but the selective service system, now preparing to war game out a draft and the new draft system coming to place in December, well, need us to say a lot of people are pretty dang concerned and not surprised young people
do not like the war. I wonder, obviously, if there's any kind of attack on NATO, then you're going to see the U.S. is going to be obligated to get involved. But I do wonder how much the United States, what kind of response the United States would do if Putin were to use a tactical nuke in Ukraine, technically, you know, we don't have any obligation to defend Ukraine or to get involved in World War III because of Ukraine, particularly if it's going to be something where it's like, all right, well, you know, Russia attacks, so the United States has to attack Russia, or I like that, that's not, that's not, you know, the United States' obligation. So I do, it does make me wonder exactly how far the U.S. is willing to go if Russia does break that taboo, and I imagine that's probably what Putin's thinking to, you know, he knows, he knows better than I do, probably what the U.S. will and will not respond to, or is obligated to respond to. Yeah, I mean, it seems that Trump is currently very occupied with Iran and opening up the surfing lose. I also heard about a sort of nuke corridor that he's been trying to open to make it easier for Gulf states to export oil. So if there's any point in time in which Putin would have probably like, I don't know, the least, you know, pronounced response from Trump, it'd probably be now given the fact that he's occupied, but it depends, you know. Yeah. What do you think, Chris? Do you think that the U.S., do you think that the U.S. would actually respond or get involved in some kind of, some kind of kinetic conflict with Russia? Because I mean, if Russia were to use nuke, I mean, we kind of all see where the winds are blowing if that, if the U.S. actually responds, you know. Well, we live in a bloodthirsty war-hungry state that will take any opportunity that it can to maximize bloodshed for people that live here in abroad. Maximize? Oh, yeah. Yeah. That's what the state does. So it wouldn't surprise me. I mean, we're already at war with Iran. We're not supposed to be. We shouldn't be. So another opportunity for war war. If he's going to chomp on it, of course. The U.S. were actually looking to maximize bloodshed, wouldn't the U.S. then just say, well, we're going to escalate the bombing on Iran as opposed to trying to look for an off ramp. Well, no, because the state is crazy as it is. It's not stupid at the same time. So I'm just talking about the pure data of our history overseas and the way that we conducted ourselves in the 20th century and even beyond. So I'm just saying, I wouldn't be surprised if we jump at the opportunity for more escalation and more war. I think the phrase "maximize" is kind of what, what radical? Well, it's not that it's not that it's radical. I think that history proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that the United States does not look, does not intend to maximize, right? That's the statement you made, looks to maximize. If the United States were looking to cause as much bloodshed as it wanted, and I've said this before in the show, there has never been a military power in all of human history with as much capability as the United States. Right. And nobody has ever, and no military in history has been as reserved as the United States when it comes to having that much, that unbound, that disproportionate amount of power. I think a good example of that would be World War II, for example. Like right after World War II, we obviously spent a lot of time and effort in rebuilding Europe and restructuring Germany and restructuring even Germany to an extent. And when it came to the Korean War, right after the Korean War, for example, we helped establish them as a republic as a democracy that is more aligned with America. We went from having imperial Japan and vading basically almost every country in Southeast Asia, including China itself. And we made it into a democracy in which the Emperor basically became a sequest to the US government and Douglas MacArthur essentially restructured even their constitution to from being offensive to defensive. And that's at the point where no one really had nooks and the Soviets only really had one, I think maybe in the like 55, 1956 up into that point. So I don't buy the idea that America has been trying to like just maximize bloodshed. I think we've been very reserved like you said. Yeah, I mean, so like the US doesn't buck at getting involved in conflict. So I mean, that's definitely true, right? The US has been, you know, in some kind of military conflict, basically every year since the end of World War II definitely and probably for, you know, pot, maybe the argument could be made since the end of the Civil War II. But yeah, and so maybe it's just that I have a problem with the term maximize because look, I am a pro-America shale. Absolutely. I am fully pro-America. And I do, but I do think that it's that had had another country or had had another society had the same disproportionate military capability that the US has compared to the rest of the the world. I think that the the body count would be much harder to be significantly higher. You look at the like you give the Huns that kind of I mean, look at what the Huns did just with horses and bow and arrow. They had like, you know, they had that was a significant capability that most of the people that they conquered and and stuff didn't have and they conquered all of a or most of Asia and, you know, killed millions like Attila the Hun. Yeah, like 30% of the population of Earth now has is somehow descended from Attila the Hun. Just to speak back on the story, I mean, like I think there must be a precedent set here either by NATO and the European Union and the European conglomerate or America, but like someone has to step up. I think Europe has to step up more than America because they're actually there. They're more in danger. They're closer. And like as much as we can talk about Russia and Ukraine, like Russia would never actually nuke America out of the wind. Russia could never invade America. So they're not really a threat to us. They're more of a threat to Europe and obviously Ukraine. And so Europe would certainly need to set a precedent because if Putin can use tactical nuclear weapons on Ukraine and no one really does anything apart from, hey, we're going to send you more weapons. Hey, we're going to send you more money. Hey, we're going to give you more humanitarian aid or monetary aid. That's like, well, then Putin can go further and further and he can start gaining his own sort of momentum under that, you know. Yeah. And it's worth mentioning that there have been incursions into they Russia says that they're accidental, but there were incursions into Poland, I guess, a missile landed somewhere in Poland. Thank when the one was hurt, but a Russian missile hit the ground there. So, you know, there, whether or not that was an accident is, you know, debatable, but let's let's pull it up to the New York Times. Has World War three already started? In fact, the New York Times isn't the only major publication to have written this. They don't give you wrong. There's a bunch of European outlets that have been saying this for months now, potentially years, but we've got expressed we've got the New York Times, as well as many smaller publications now joining in asking the question, are we in World War three? And the argument made by Brett Stevens is that World War two was not simply Germany's invasion of Poland kicking it off. There had been an accumulation of regional wars and crises beginning with Japan's invasion of Manchuria in 1931. And for that matter, as I was explaining my earlier morning segment, World War one did not begin simply because Archduke Franz Ferdinand was shot. They were already these tensions, the industrialization of weapons, everything was being geared up towards war, and they were just waiting for the straw on the camel's back. So, of course, we'll look back historically and say this was that key moment. However, we don't know if it may have already happened, or it'll be in the future. For instance, the American War for Independence, the shot heard around the world. We had already been in a conflict fighting with the regulars for some time. Yeah. This is when it kicked off when they tried to seize weapons, because you had, you know, obviously the Boston massacre, the, uh, wasn't the intolerable acts. And then you had, uh, of course, with the Civil War, the Battle of Fort Sumter where we say the war began, but the American people at that time did not think the Civil War was actually going on. Right. That's why they went to a picnic at Bull Run and Manassas. So the question now is we've got war with Russia and Ukraine, the US funding the Ukrainians, you've got war with Iran, Iran's sending weapons to Russia, Ukraine now striking Iranian vessels and Iranian proxies also sort of being activated. Absolutely bombing cargo ships and civilians in the area. The US surrounding Cuba, taking at the leader of Venezuela, we are, we are lining all of these pieces up. And the question is, with all of these wars happening now around the world and escalating, is it world war three? Yeah. I like the way that you sort of phrase that. Um, there's no actual like threshold, like how many countries need to be fighting, uh, how hostile does the world stage have to be in order for it to actually be classified as world war three. And so what happens is historians look at history, look at sort of like turmoil and what is actually happening on the global stage and they decide, hey, this is where, when we think the Revolutionary War started, this is when we think world war three started. But there's always tension, like you mentioned, Tim, before that, you know, there's always sort of that tension before. So it's, it's very possible that we are in the beginning stages of world war three. And by the way, it's like,
I know when I envision World War III, I think when a lot of people envision World War III, we think of like, "Okay, nukes are going off everywhere and everything is crazy." It doesn't always have to be like that. During World War II and World War I, for example, the majority of sub-Saharan Africa and a decent part of Asia was like, "Okay, you know what I mean? "It doesn't have to be like, okay, "it's utter insanity in order for it to actually be classified as that." So in whatever World War III does look like, it's gonna look very different from the previous World Wars. It's just, I'm trying to formulate what a flashpoint would be that's so enormous that would actually kind of signal to everyone including all these states that are already in conflict. This is official, okay, we're actually there. - Well, I mean, there's what Latvia, Lithuania, and one other country, that in Slovenia, that used to be Soviet states, right? They were part of the Soviet Union, I think. I mean, if Putin decided, and they're currently NATO member nations now, if Putin decides that he's like, well, you know, the US is busy and Europe is weak because they don't have the militaries that they used to have and maybe now's the time to do it. I mean, if you're Putin making the calculation that we should bring back the Soviet Union, I mean, like Tim said earlier, you know, this might be the time that he says, okay, look, the US is preoccupied. They've spent a lot of effort and military weaponry to fight our hand or whatever. And so, and look, I don't think that the US is as the US military stockpile is as depleted as the news reports, but I don't know what Putin knows either. So, yeah, I mean, I doubt that Putin would ever like invade Estonia or Latvia anytime soon. I'm more any NATO ally. I do think that Putin wants to restore a part of the, like, the USSR, like, for example, Belarus under Lukashenko, Lukashenko, yeah. Yeah, yeah. It like, they are basically Russian puppet state. Like, when the war started, the most recent war with Ukraine, starting February 24th of 2022, he used Belarus to invade from the North and the Battle of Kiev sort of started there and commenced there. So, I don't, I think that he wants puppet states and states are gonna be more, you know, subservient to the US, not to the US, but to Russia's government. But I'm not, I'm not, I don't buy the idea that he wants to invade Poland and then he wants to invade Latvia or something. I don't really buy that idea. It could be the case. I just don't, I just don't think that he's dumb enough to think he would win that war, 'cause he just wouldn't win. I tend to agree, particularly because I mean, look, if he had the military might that it was required to take multiple countries and take on NATO, then he probably wouldn't have such a problem in Ukraine. Like, with big Russia can't beat little Russia, so how are you gonna take on NATO, you know? - And when the war started, I thought like, I mean, first, I mean, I'm 19 currently, but when the war started, I thought like, okay, like, this is crazy, Russia's gonna like, swallow them up in like 12 days and I never experienced anything like that. I've always heard about wars in the Middle East happening from very far away and you know, era people like any bomb and stuff, I've always heard about that and I've heard about World War II and World War One. But I never saw anything like, okay, Russia is invading Ukraine and you see all of these modern videos and modern warfare happening. But to be fair, Russia has underperformed and that's to say the least. And like, again, Russia getting hit with a bunch of drones from Ukraine, the fact that their refinery sites have been getting damaged. The fact that we see all of these videos in Russia where people are waiting in these super long lines to get gas, it's like, people internally feel alienated and I'm sure they don't feel great about the current conditions and that is going to weigh on Putin. Doesn't matter how much of an autocratic, you know, fascist he is or I don't think he's a fascist, but you know, like, dictator or whatever, you know, so. - Who'd have thought that we'd see a war that had, you know, trench warfare, all world war one and drones flying around with bombs and robot, you know, literally robot, robotic machine guns. There were, I think that the Ukrainians used the first ever fully robotic assault because they had like motorized machine guns and stuff recently. So yeah, it is crazy to think that, you know, you've got a stalemate that is trench warfare where neither side can really move forward and take any significant amount of territory and at the same time, you've got, you know, drones and robots fighting on the front. - Drone warfare has been just insane. It's been so many years. - Too the spider webs? Yeah, because they control them via fiber optic cables. So the forest are just littered with these wires. It's crazy and the drone warfare, like I've seen so much, like just so much, so many crazy videos online of like these drone dropped grenades exploding and like the drones chasing soldiers and the trench warfare that you see, it's like, it's so surreal because we're typically used to seeing that sort of stuff in black and white. But now we have access to so much surveillance and so much reconnaissance and just videos that we're just able to see how it's really like. And it's just, - You always watch one the other day where this guy got chased around as food truck or something like that. - Yeah. - Yeah, throw him up. - It's wild. - And it's like, yeah, he survived them. - Yeah. - Insane. - Yeah, it's, it's, it's certainly gives people that like to talk about conflict here in the US, so I'm gonna get my gun going to woods and you know. It does really make you rethink what that actually entails. You see all the, I mean, you go to the internet and there's a lot of very gory videos that you can, I mean, you can just see them on X, never mind going to specific telegram channels that are, you know, uncentred or whatever. And it is just horrible. It doesn't look like any fun at all, you know, dude, it's just living. - It just reminds everyone of how mortal they are. - Yeah, it's all, you're just living in mud. I guarantee that even today there are dudes in Ukraine right now with trench foot. And if they're not right now, there will be in December because they're, you know, those trenches are gonna fill up with water and it's gonna be freezing and it's gonna suck. I mean, yeah, I have no desire in opposition. - Yeah, I have no desire to see any kind of, you know, conflict here in the U.S. that no matter how. - There were examples, anything like that. And the reason why we will probably never see anything like that coming from another country, like domestically something could arise, you know, of course. But I think that's the only thing that could internally cripple America. It's not, it's, I don't think that any foreign powers ever going to be able to defeat America domestically by invading against, first, how would you get here? How would you get here? You know, we have the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean. We have Canada that isn't gonna do anything and we have Mexico. You know, like Canada and Mexico are big trading partners, we're never gonna do anything to us. So the only way something could domestically arise here is, I mean, or any, like the only way we could have military issues here in America would be something happens internally or a civil worker. - Well, I mean, there's an internal conflict in which China then allies with Western states and then, that's how they're able to-- - Like that could pop off, right, exactly. - And it is feasible that there's been enough military age men that have come in from China or would have you during Biden's administration. I've heard, you know, numbers, look, there was like, over the course of Biden's administration, people estimate something like 20 million people came in illegally, and even if that's an overestimation, it's not crazy to think that 20 or 30,000 military age men from China made it, you know. If you've got millions, people have a hard time, like, and I'm not saying that-- - Sleeper cells as well. - I'm not saying that I don't have a hard time conceiving of these numbers, but like, look, 30, 40,000 people when you're dealing with 10, 15 million, that's a very, very small amount of 10 to 15 million people that came in, it's completely within the realm of possibility to say, oh, look, you know, they got a couple of regays worth of people put into the US, and they could call it wreak havoc, you know. A couple of competent cyber attacks and activate some sleeper cells, and just everything goes to hell in the US. - Which is one of the issues, I think, I mean, we're gonna get into this also soon. It's one of the issues with illegal immigration, and just immigration as a whole, when you look at it, is you have to have a good vetting system, so that you avoid things like that. And a lot of people are talking about how like Trump, you know, banned immigration basically from Iran, and it's like actively at where with Iran? Allowing people from Iran to come here now would be like the worst possible thing we could do right now when it comes to that, you know. So you have to be wary of it, and you need to know who's coming in, who's coming out, and whether or not you're having sleeper cells come in to infiltrate, so. - I've got personally a very hard line on immigration, and what should be done about the people that are here illegally and stuff. Like, there is no gray area for me. If you're here illegally, you gotta go, the administration, I mean, they're doing more than basically any administration in my lifetime. I would like to see them doing more, because it's just, it's literally a matter of national security. There's plenty of reasons, economic reasons. You know, they, I've heard estimates of housing costs are up 20 to 30% because of illegal immigrants. There's plenty of jobs that the American people would do, [BLANK_AUDIO]
that Americans could get, if it wasn't for illegals here, you know, there's a lot of businesses that are taking advantage of people that are here illegally. Never mind the H1BV, so I think it's a totally different story, but like just the illegals, like they should be, the government should be doing everything within its power to get them out of the United States. And like I said, it's a national security issue as well as the economic issues. So anything they can do to make the United States safer, and I believe that getting rid of people, that are getting people that are illegal to leave makes the United States safer. Anything they can do is a good idea, particularly considering, you know, how volatile the world has become in the past, particularly five years or so. Yeah. Chris, what's your take on this? I mean, the thing is, if I had confidence that our government was not, you know, incompetent than I would trust them to actually take action. Like the best example of the government that we have in the world right now is Bukele. Like this is a guy that has, he imposes a very singular and righteous will on his people. And he has effective measures, he gets stuff done, and the results speak for themselves. We don't have that. And I don't think that we're going to have a leader like that because of our democratic system, unfortunately. Yeah, it's a good point. I just want to touch on that for a second. Like the, a lot of people talk about how, well, you know, Trump has been doing better, obviously, than Biden was doing when it came to immigration, US illegal immigration has been lowest. It's been in 55 years. I, uh, arrest, I believe in July was like 55,000 if I'm not mistaken. Um, you know, and we're going to get more into that. But no matter what Trump does in his administration, the reason why he's able to do so much with immigration is because it's under the executive branch. But if someone can come in in four years because people are maybe dissatisfied with inflation or whatever, and they can revoke and undo all of that essentially. That causes a sort of problem where yeah, you're voting, but how, how long are these policies that you're voting for really going to stay in effect? Yeah. Before like an AOC or like a, like a DSA candidate comes in and like messes it completely up. So your point of the democratic system having issues, I agree. Because if, if we did live in an American under Bukhale, um, we would have uniformity of culture, uniformity of ideas. And we wouldn't have to deal with some lunatic coming in in four years and just undoing every policy. Well, he faces that same problem too. I mean, he can't stand power forever. And he said that he doesn't intend to, right? Um, and the other problem, of course, is one of scale. You know, I mean, it's one thing to rule over how many people are in El Salvador, seven, eight million, something like that. Maybe 11. I don't know. But yeah, I mean, when you scale it up to the amount of people that we have, including all of these undocumented, undocumented illegal aliens, that's, that's a more significant problem than one man can probably contend with. So yeah, I mean, I would like to see, I'm personally not, uh, I don't know, I'm not a fan of the idea of a, you know, someone with that much power, but at the same time, um, I have been, you know, I've been on record saying we need another link and to deal with the communists in the United States. So, you know, maybe, uh, maybe some kind of short term thing, uh, it might be, you know, like a Cincinnati or whatever, you know, uh, to rectify the problems that we have right now as, as much. And I, you know, I'm, I'm a guy that thinks that, you know, Donald Trump is the most viable political vehicle, uh, Donald Trump and the, and the Republicans, most the Republicans now, uh, are the most viable political vehicle to, to achieve the results that I'm looking for. Um, I'm under no illusions that, you know, like you said, as someone else can come in and undo the vast majority of it. Um, and particularly considering, you know, the situation, the mess that we're in now, it's not, you can't blame just Joe Biden or blame just, you know, Barack Obama or just George Bush or, or what have you and be like, well, everything would be better if it wasn't. I mean, you can go all the way back to Reagan and say, well, you know, if the amnesty hadn't happened, we might have a different, different opinion about it and stuff. So it's, it's a rat's nest that's been, been, been created over decades and multiple administrations. So people that look at Donald Trump and they're like, oh, he's not getting it done. It's like, well, you, you think that one guy is going to get it done. One, and one president under our, under the system that we have now, you think one guy's going to get orders and the lawsuits and this, like, I mean, to be fair, the Supreme Court has been good on a lot of stuff. Great. Yeah. And things as well. I'm glad that they revoked the protection status that the Haitians had because they've been here for over like, I don't know, 10 years and the hurricane's been, I don't know, going on for so long. But yeah, you're right. You have so many hurdles and you have judges imposing all sorts of different, you know, restrictions on stuff. And so like, it's not, it's, again, he's not a dictator. Although leftists like to make him out to be this fat, fascistic dictator with total power, he just doesn't have total power. That's just the reality of it. So let's jump to this next story guys from the military times. Selective service system wants to war game the draft. The readiness simulation project comes to the US government is about to change its draft registration system. Since the 40s, men within 18 to 26 would have to sign up with the new rule. Starting December 19th, 2026, the selective service system will work off data contained in other federal databases, notably real ID. Or at least that's presumption. That's why they want to federalize the, that's, you know, all your IDs, whenever you register, now the government's got it. Questions remain about how prepare the selective service system is to handle the change. It currently relies on manual analysis, legacy modeling approaches, outdated assumptions and historical data sets that do not fully reflect modern demographics. I believe they are running the simulation because there's a very real possibility of a draft. And I think the issue is, you are not going to be able to, could you imagine the US government trying to draft grippers over what's going on around right now? Yeah. The ideological split in this country, the various factions. It's not the same as it used to be. Right. You go back, you go back to World War one to whatever you had a unified, you had a monoculture. Right. Yeah. So when they said we're going to draft everybody kind of new why. But now you've got so many different political factions in this country. A diversity are strength, right? A draft is never going to work. So they're going to try and figure it out. But I do believe this is them saying, oh, hey guys, things are getting out of hand. Maybe we should check to see if the draft would, it's still operational. If it's possible. I mean, there wouldn't be updating the rules and running simulations on it unless they thought they needed it. Right. I think it's pretty clear that, you know, it would be, you know, most of the vast majority would be, you know, Hispanics and white guys and a handful of black guys that are, you know, like American Americans, right? Right. The Marine Corps has basically been Hispanics and whites for the past 50 years, you know, I mean Hispanics. I mean, the groipers would fit right into that. Yeah, exactly. They would be fit. They would be doing, they would all be, they would all have like EFS and stuff like Pove Torrel Syndrome. And they'd be like, no, my knees hurt. I can't. My knees hurt. Yeah. But I still think generally it's, it's, it's probably unlikely. But if it does happen, I mean, if I get drafted, it's like, let's do it. Whatever, you know, it is what it is. For any conflict or your, your own, your own board for any conflict, man, I mean, I mean, it's not like I would have a choice because it'd be like a draft, but like, you could be a conscientious objector. Possibly, possibly, but I mean, I think I would, I think I'd probably like, if I was drafted, I'd just go, you know, I'm not going to fight over. I know Mohammed Ali sort of did his little scandal with it. But no, if you're, it's not a bad idea if they're instituting a draft, it's not actually a bad idea to join and select what you want to do. If you're not the kind of person that's like, all right, I want to be in the inventory, you know, join what that's not how it works. I know too many veterans that suffer from PTSD and dealt with unspeakable horrors in Afghanistan, Iraq. They did sign up for very specific duty and they said, actually, no, you're going to do this. Wow. Yeah. And that's just how it works. When you, when you submit yourself to, you know, a bloodthirsty institution, they're going to do with you what they want. Well, I mean, the ASVAB too. Like, it also depends on where, like, where your intelligence is and what, like, role would actually be fit your intelligence, right? So if you get like a very low score, I mean, the army is probably all you have for it. You're going to go into the, yeah, you have to have it, you have to have a decent ASVAB to get into the Marine Corps at all. So, yeah, you go in the army and maybe you'd be a, maybe you'd be, you know, an 11 Bravo, which isn't a rifleman and be like, all right, here you go. This is the point. The end, or, you know, but don't put this in. It's like that. It's like what Tim showed us earlier. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. It's very apt. That clip from some of them is great. But I mean, I was playing the Operation Himaland Shield from South Park earlier. Yeah. Look, the bright side is Medevacs are very, have come, you know, a long ways since the Vietnam War. You know, there's a reason why the death toll in Iraq for the United States was, you know, a few thousand, I think of something like 3500 or something like that overall. Yeah. It wasn't considering how many people were there and stuff like that. But yeah, look, I mean, I don't think that there's, I don't think that, that this, I think this particular, you know, war game of draft of the draft is going to produce pretty poor results. I think there's a lot of people in the United States that can be like, hell. Even Poon hasn't gone into a full on draft yet. You know what I mean? Like, he's been basically inside from what I know so far. Maybe I can get corrected. But from what I've seen so far, like one, they're paying the soldiers exceptionally well for Russia really terms of the Rupees. Like they're paying them exceptionally well. Although a lot of them are like Ann and father, they are like human me basically just being sent there to me, Crinder. And, you know, they get some sort of like, you know, federal and local
benefits from the government, but they do get paid a considerable amount for, you know, Russian standards to do it. So they haven't really gone into a full-on draft yet from what I've seen. I know Ukraine has. Yeah, I was going to say. Yeah. Yeah. That's certainly has. I mean, we see the video of like men literally getting like dragged into vans and stuff. But it's always, if even Putin isn't willing to do it, we shouldn't either. And I at least want people to be motivated and be for the wars that they fight. I think that's a good thing as well because I want people to be able to know like, okay, this is the U.S. foreign policy, this is the countries that we're going after. And you can either decide to enlist knowing what's been going on on the geopolitical stage or not enlist. And that's like a choice that you can make. And I think that we're probably going to continue having that choice and that's going to only be fairly good. It sounds like you're essentially pro-war. That's not me being pro. I don't, I don't really. I don't, I don't, I mean, I'm giving you an anarchist of anti-war, so, you know, well, I mean, I think that the, what does that mean? Anti-war. Yeah, I think that no participation in war was so ever. I'll go to jail before I go and fight. But I mean, like, what if someone comes here? Yeah. Oh, I don't fight. I turned the other cheek. We already went over this. I want to bang the same drum over and over. But, you know, just to clarify, I mean, you're taking it to an absolutist extreme position. Yeah. Oh, yeah. You do otherwise. You're not being allowed. China storms the beaches of California, aided by communists, insurgent forces. Let's just say that with 30% of the Democratic Party being DSA, you get a series of government officials that not on their own could they cause a coup, but they start effectively pulling the linchpin from the system because they have enough control. This allows China to come in. The remaining Democrats fall in line with the DSA like, oh, this is what we all want. China then starts sweeping across the West Coast, taking over our cities. Your attitude is. Yes. All right. It's the old Woody Allen joke in the event of war. In the event of war, I'm a hostage. Mm. Yeah. Why? Because I would rather do anything but participate in the cycle of violence. It has to stop with somebody. It has to stop somewhere. It's gone too far. So would you prefer like China takes over the whole world and there's no more war because everyone's just a communist like nobody. There's not going to be a lot of people that have my specific perspective. OK. I'm saying, like, if you're saying you want to end the cycle of violence, my question is, let's say China sweeps through the country. They win the entire planet is under the CCP. All countries, all nations, and there's no more war. Well, I mean, you've talked about the human propensity toward war is undeniable. There is always going to be war. Even if China takes over, there's still going to be like a warring faction within the communist party of the China that's allegedly taken over the world. So there is no stopping the cycle of violence just, but it takes part of one person. One person can play their role in choosing to opt out of participating in the endless cycle of violence. And if one person does that, then I really believe that it could ripple out and impact people in a very meaningful way. I, perhaps I just think that there is no circumstance in which an ideology of peace reaches every single possible human. OK. So war indeed. Indeed more. All right. Great. I mean, I feel like that's particularly a childish way to explain. If you have a bunch of people who are docile and say we all believe in peace, it takes only one sociopath to be like these suckers are going to do what I tell them because they won't fight back. Exactly. And then your king is a sociopath who rapes and murders. Right. All right. So I guess I have no choice but to participate in violence. And when it comes to the thing. I believe that it's correct because you can also argue that you live out in the woods by yourself and you grew a watermelon for your friend and then a cougar shows up and mulls you to death because the cycle of violence exists outside of humanity as well. Well, I'm confining what I'm discussing to the human propensity toward violence and how humans can actually choose to opt out of that if they want to. But do you think sociopaths exist? Of course they do. They're not going to stop. Oh, I mean, who knows? Well, I believe that every person, that's why we have prison, I mean, criminals away. So they don't like. I mean, true. I also think like we can just look at the entirety of human history. I mean, what do you, what do you almost say? I mean, at least, I mean, you can go through every human species. If you believe in evolution or just like, again, talk about the homo sapiens here for a second, we have never had a time period in which one person was able to get even the majority or half or even a third of the world to just chill out on war, which is, it's just not a thing. It's, yeah, it's, it's war is bad and we don't want it and there's soft power manipulations that we can do. Right. But again, to the ultimate point is, uh, evil exists. Right. It's not going to, it's not going to evaporate, it just won't. And so, uh, if everybody refused to fight, that just means the barbarian is king. Right. It has to be confronted. Well, or I should say, Satan will be king. Satan will lord over this world when Christians say we don't want to fight it all. The any attempt to wipe out Christianity for 2000 years has failed. Christianity is stronger than ever, arguably. So I mean, like you, you were talking about, I'm talking about, I mean, whether someone believes something and lives in hiding with their belief, right? You know, well, no, you know, I'm hiding with your belief, I mean, that's, that goes against scripture. You're supposed to. But would you disagree if, if, if people stop fighting Satan wins? Well, I mean, you're, you're, okay, so you're talking about people that basically adhere to this deranged idea of peace, this radical peace that I'm talking about. What animates that peace? If it's not animated by the spirit of Christ, then it's, you're, you are just basically sacrificing yourself for nothing. But it's my belief that, uh, true belief in Christ, and it adherents to his teachings, and actually change hearts and minds in a more radical way than war can. Would, uh, so, so let's say, again, I mean, everybody agrees with you and they all say, oh, okay, wow, this is, this is the way to do it. Let's stop fighting. Will there be at least one individual who doesn't agree or who is possessed or who is demonically inspired or obsessed or possessed or would Satan himself just be like, they won't fight anymore. I've won. And he comes and takes over. Well, and all likely to, it's not just going to be one. It's going to be the majority. I mean, the Christians are going to be outnumbered, ultimately, but just because Jesus was outnumbered and his apostles were outnumbered, it didn't mean that they weren't able to transform the world. But that's not what I asked. Okay. So I asked him again, I must have understood. Right, right. So my question is, so, sociopathy exists. We can also refer to more faith-based ideas like obsession and possession that exists. Sure. I certainly think so. So even if the good people believe a demon can possess a person to do evil, if people are unwilling to fight back, it takes but a single individual who is obsessed, obsessed or possessed, to then wage violence against those who will not defend themselves and Satan wins. But that's happened historically, century after century, and Christians have not gone anywhere. They've just grown a number. So when you're talking about population expansion, though, well, not population expansion so much as an expansion of belief. I would argue that Christian, certainly right now, there's more Christians than Muslims, Muslims are rapidly expanding. Yeah, they are. And I think they're, are they growing faster than Christianity? Yeah, they are because of birth rate, not conversion. Well, I mean, Christian growth was birth rate. Right. Although there was a lot of like spreading that obviously happened and it sort of permeated throughout, but I mean, a good example, I think the sort of amplifies your point, is the fact that Saudi Arabia was once mostly Christian. Wow. Egypt was once mostly Christian. Libya was once mostly Christian, Morocco was once mostly Christian. Syria and Lebanon and even modern day Israel was once mostly Christian. What happened was there was the Muslim conquest of the 7th century and the Muslims were able to, and, you know, you can even enter the Crusades for this. They were able to essentially defeat the Christians and now they have dominion over the Christians. And now we have a bunch of Islamic terrorist organizations that are killing Christians in Nigeria about like 50,000 over the last like decade. And we have the subjugation and discrimination against Christians in Egypt, the Coptic Christians. And so. I mean, our, our, our most prosperous, largest city is now being led by a foreign born Muslim man. Right. That, that says, that nation founded, a land conquered, a nation founded by Christians now has a growing leadership and not just in New York, actually, I love it, but you can look at Dearborn Michigan of Islam coming in. And they're extremist and, and they hate America, they hate the West, they hate Christianity. They think all of that is oppressive. And, and, and then the argument that like, well, it's not happened before. So let's just let it happen now. I think the reason it hasn't happened, hasn't happened before is because you had a crusade. And the crusades weren't even particularly effective. You want to be honest, the G-hats put a span over a thousand years, made its way across the Middle East and North Africa into Spain. And the crusade was what, like, a few immigrants from, like, over like 700 years and not to mention, there was almost an incursion really into more of Western Europe entering France until I believe all Gafiki, he was defeated by Charles Martel, who was a French politician and military officer, who really stopped the, the sort of Islamic invasion into Spain. And that's why the Muslims didn't go further. So I think Christians and anyone who does not want to be Islamified definitely need to fight. And I think this is why America is the home of the brave, is that Americans are willing to fight for their freedom. Americans have been willing to fight for their freedom ever since Thomas Paine told them that we have to fight against a British monarchy and we have to obtain freedom and liberty. Give me freedom or give me death. I rather, you know, be dead than live under a communist Mamdani hellhole, you know, that's me personally. But I rather go out fighting than be subservient to those belief systems. Well, I mean, those belief systems have such a massive death toll. If you don't fight, you'll end up dead anyways. Or it's a good chance of it. Or it's a good chance you win. I mean, we live in the 21st century and there are a lot fewer communists or especially orthodox communist states than there used to be, only because people figured out this ideology sucks. Yeah. I mean, it does lose and lose and lose and it's been shown.
to be so unsuccessful and so unproductive that it's had to, you know, basically morph into something different. It used to be the vulgar Marxism where it was the proletariat versus the bourgeoisie and now it's changed into a lot of race-based stuff because of people like her, Mark Hughes, or Dorneau. Yep, Frank Rich. Yeah, Frank Rich. Cool. Cool, cool, guys. I want to jump to this story from the Postman Lineal. This is a very, very serious story, my friends. The State Department has designated, what's this, Autistici, Autistici, Inventati as a specially designated global terrorist. Today the Department of State and Partnership, the Department of Treasury is announcing the designation of AI as a specially designated global terrorist. It's an Italy-based extremist group that builds and operates the digital infrastructure for violent, anti-facells, and other far-left militants across the world. AI's cadre of radical hackers and tech developers provide a full spectrum of services, including encrypted chats and emails, web hosting, secure video conferencing, and streaming, and anonymity shields in a suite of other technological tools to Marxist anarchists and other left-wing extremist groups in the United States. This is crazy. They cannot designate individual in the United States as domestic terrorists, not a thing. But foreign terrorists, yes, and if they have now designated this organization in Italy as a foreign terrorist, and this organization is working with U.S. activists, those activists are now directly aiding and abetting terrorists, and this is a very strange thing to say, but I believe that Brian Crasnstein needs to be criminally charged immediately. I am not suggesting he's spent 50 years in prison, but the United States government needs to send a message if you advocate the funding of foreign terror groups. There is a penalty following the announcement from Secretary Marco Rubio 10 hours ago about this group. Brian Crasnstein wrote, "Please donate to the Austatichi," as I say, "autistichi in ventati, independent volunteer-run internet service collective." They stand for anti-racism, anti-fascism, anti-sexism, anti-militarism, and opposition to authoritarianism and hierarchies. This is a foreign organization that is leveling attacks against the United States, whether or not they were designated terrorists. He has posted their donation link with a note, beneath it, that they are a specially designated global terrorist by the U.S. State Department, as of the day he posted this, he posted this at 11 a.m. on August 26th, and I don't know if we have the date. Let me try to find the time when they officially announced this. Now I do want to stress four hours, so he posted, let me get the time on this. He deleted it. Did he delete it? I think he may have deleted it. He posted this at 11 a.m. at 5 p.m. at 4.48, he says, "Update, please hold off on the donations as the authoritarian regime will use it to have you arrested. Hold your money until the designation is officially removed, which it most certainly will be and then donate double." He is still advocating that you donate to a terrorist organization. The problem we have in this country is that people like Brian Crasnstein don't follow the law and our government doesn't uphold it. I had this conversation, guys, I'm going to bring it up again, I debated Nick Freedis on this one, love the guys, he's fantastic. What I argued law does not exist and obviously we have a law book, obviously we say laws get enforced. Obviously people arrest other people. The point I am making is that anti-fuckin engage in terroristic activities. Brian Crasnstein can outright say, donate, wait, hold off, donate after this. We win the ability to remove the designation. He is still advocating for material support. We don't do anything about it. The DOJ is not doing anything about it. You've got all of these people making posts on TikTok and Instagram saying, do it and everyone knows what do it means and they don't do anything. If there is no confidence that the government will do anything, then people will do whatever they want to put it simply. We know about blue laws, we know there are laws in the books and basically every jurisdiction that no one would dare uphold. The example I like to give in West Virginia is that cohabitation out of marriage is a crime in West Virginia and no cop would ever try to enforce it. So everyone does it. Why? Socially acceptable. If they do not charge Crasnstein, they are telling everyone we find it socially acceptable to fund terrorist organizations. I mean, look, he specifically put that up in response to the Secretary of State declaring that this particular group was being considered a terrorist organization. And then he replied, I just want to clarify, the designation was published 10 hours ago. Yeah. Because he posted this after the designation was already made. Ignorance of the law is no excuse for breaking it, especially when it's this severe. I mean, he thought that he was going to dunk on Marco Rubio and oh, look at blah, blah, blah. Well, you know, I mean, you specifically replied to Marco Rubio announcing the designation and said, oh, you people should go and donate. And then he himself posted that he donated. Well, to your point earlier about it, like how Marxist thought transforms and appears under a different cloak, you know, anti-racism, anti-fascism, anti-sexism, anti-mouse up. I mean, like he totally is captivated by that ideology in its shape. I mean, I'm not so sure that he himself believes, or he himself considers himself a Marxist. He probably is more like, you know, the lib, you know, the shit lib kind of dude who's just like, you know, yeah, he's like, well, you know, all these things are bad and Trump is bad. So we should do whatever we can to push back against Trump. And it's like, really should you, should you support organizations that, you know, shoot at ICE agents, you know, when they, when they have a, you know, because Antifa were, were a bunch like nine antifa members were just found guilty of basically assaulting an ICE facility and shooting at police officers or, you know, law enforcement, Texas was in Texas. So it does that is, is that something you support, Brian, because you're donating two groups that help organize that kind of activity. And the post that he deleted was where he said donated thanks. Yeah. That's the one that's gone. But I mean, look, he thinks he thinks that he's just doing something to, you know, I, I dunked on Trump, you know, on X, look at me, look how cool I am. Well, sometimes when you F O, sometimes you F A, you know, or F A, you F O, like I'm dunk on, uh, drummed by saying, like donate to ISIS or something is kind of the same thing. Yeah. I mean, well, I mean, it's same classification. And so yes, I, I am completely in agreement that he should be arrested or he should be investigated, then arrested, then he'll get a trial. And the evidence seems to point to he actually will he did. So if he did, look, even his post after the fact, he's saying just wait until we get this removed, then donate that's double, he's going down, but okay. He's still telling people to support them. Yeah. He's advocating people support a terrorist organization. He's saying that we are going to win politically, grant them the legal right to operate again, and then support them more. He is arguing for the political normalization of this terror group. Yeah. I mean, it doesn't really get much, I mean, it can get obviously worse than this, but I think that, um, what doesn't get much more clear than that. Right. Right. I think what Tim said makes a little sense. You have to set a precedent for stuff like this. Like when, when people are able to go on acts as social media platform and post a donation link for a specially designated terrorist organization, that is when the DOJ needs to step up. I mean, Trump is in power now. He has basically control over the DOJ. He appoints the attorney general, and they need to take action on this. And we should also probably get a list of names of people that have donated to this. Yes. Absolutely. And look into them and look into who these people are and who they may be affiliated with because these are real important things. You can't let this thing, these things skip by. I think a lot of people sort of forget sometimes that America is a real country, and we need to treat America like it's a real functioning country with a government because when people like in no other country, do you hear of something like this, right, where people are, uh, you know, insulting the secretary of state and saying, yeah, I'm going to post this link to a specially designated terrorist organization that you just designated a terrorist organization. And, you know, not on a boo, boo. This is what we do. Like this is a serious country. Let's start acting like it's a serious country. Absolutely. If he does, if there are repercussions for this, it does deter people in the future from doing this type of stuff. Look, you can have whatever opinion you want legally. But if you're going to aid in a bad terrorist organization, if you're going to donate money to them, you are committing a criminal act and the government federal crime as well. Yeah, exactly. The federal government is a prosecutor. Yeah. It's a federal criminal act. And especially, particularly because he's doing it in response.
months to the federal government, designating them a terrorist organization. Look, if you donated yesterday, and they had not been designated, then okay, you got your slip one by the goalie, right? And the government shouldn't do anything. Every single person that saw that tweet and was like, oh, look at, I'm an antifa too. I'm gonna give those guys some money. Every single donation the government should look at. And by the way, I'm sure there are people that are probably still donating as we speak. Because some people really just don't care. Some people are just that radical and just so against line order that they don't care. They don't care what the federal government has to say, and they don't think anything will ever happen. Because things do happen, but people get used to nothing ever really happening, or at least accountability never really being enforced. And so. - To be honest with you, we're talking about that attack in Texas. I think that the Trump administration, actually, I don't know that they're gonna wrap up Brian, but I do think that the Trump administration is gonna go after people that donate. Because look, they didn't designate my terrorist organization for nothing, right? - And this is a group specifically doing hacker-based stuff, emails, communications, which means they're trying. This is, in the United States, it's a very, very common activist thing. It's not providing these services is rudimentary. It's free speech. A foreign organization doing it for political extremists in this country is now a terrorist organization. My point ultimately is these are not guys who are throwing bombs. This is critical infrastructure for anti-American extremists in the United States for terrorists. I think this shows they're absolutely going nuclear. - Yeah, and more power to them. - Yeah, it's something that, you know, like for a long time, I introduced myself on this show when we were doing intros. I introduced myself as an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary. Anything we can do to throw sand in the gears of the left and their attempts to literally destroy the governing structure of the United States because they've clearly said they want to get rid of the Constitution. When you hear them say that I want to get rid of the Senate, you have to get rid of the Constitution. - It's serious, but not only take them serious, but you have to get rid of the Constitution into how we do that. - But we don't need to put the Senate because they literally said they want to get rid of the Constitution itself. - Yes, the guy on TV said we want to eliminate the Constitution and the US government for a parliamentary system. - Right, that is, I mean, that should be considered itself a threat. Now, to be fair, he hasn't threatened the overthrowing of the US federal government yet, which would actually make it a crime. That is insane. And by the way, this is sort of the issue. I think that the right has been getting gaslighted by the left. When we hear all of these claims about the US government being fascist, fascist, white supremacists, and stuff like that, the far right, like, let's say, for example, the Grapers, they don't have any institutional power. They don't have any lobbyists. They don't have any corporate power behind them. They don't have any leaders. James Fishback just got crushed by Byron Donalds in Florida. Casey Push ran against Vivek Ramaswami for the Republican primary, for example, in Ohio. He got absolutely crushed in a single district. There has been no far right, Tucker endorsed or Nick Flint has endorsed candidate that has won any election in this country and that has become a member of the Republican Party. But the DSA are winning. And they boast about winning. You have Mamdani, for example, who, again, Ugandan, born, Muslim, with Indian ancestry, who is against America, who, by the way, speaking of supporting foreign terrorist organizations, there was five pounds in the American men in 2007, they were convicted of aiding Hamas, materially speaking. And they spent like $12 million doing so. I believe they were called the Holy Land 5 and they set up like a fake chair organization stuff like that. Mamdani said he's supported the Holy Land 5. Like he's openly has said this before. Yeah, he took a picture with a guy named Wahaj, I believe. I forget his exact name, but there was a, he's a Muslim imam in New York City who wasn't unindicted, not indicted, an unindicted co-conspirator of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. And what makes it even more insane is the fact that that same guy that Mamdani took a picture with, and by the way, he never retracted any of this, was the same guy who stood as a defense witness to the guy who was actually convicted for masterminding, for being the mastermind behind the attack. And so the DSA is, although people say, well, they're not as powerful as people are claiming they are. Well, they're winning some elections. They have some power. Mamdani is the mayor of New York City, and he is the mayor of the largest city in the country, and the most, one of the most important, if not the most important city in the country, is a product of the DSA. It's not like you're dealing with groypers who just, I don't know, are overweight, they're living their mom's basement, and they're just like posting memes on X. No, these people are building institutions. The Council of American Islamic Relations was the largest institutional funder for Mamdani's mayoral race in this campaign. So they're actually doing things. So that's who we need to worry about, the far left, because they do things. They act, they're actors. The narrative has been that we have to worry about the far right, and the Republicans are actually fascists and what have you. Whereas in reality, the Republicans have been kicking Nick Fuentes out of basically every single function that they had for the better part of a decade. Anytime the Republicans have kicked out Congress people that have said things that were a little bit beyond the pale or that would lead someone to think maybe they might be a racist. The Republicans' police, their ranks, very, very well. And they have done it for a long time. Democrats have had no such ability to police their ranks. And maybe it's because the arguments that communists make sound nice. Give everybody this. Give everybody this. Free this. Free that. Free that. Free that. Free food. They don't sound exclusionary. The way that the far right sounds exclusionary. Like it. Right. Which includes everybody. It's for everybody. Yeah. So because of that, they have basically cover to infiltrate, but it doesn't change the fact that at the end of the day, they're revolutionaries and they're not looking, they're not the fabians. Well, while they would take that course if they could, if they can, they're, they're plenty of people that once they get enough political power, they'd be like, all right, we don't have to worry about about whether or not we get the votes anymore because we got some guns, right? Like they, they are revolutionary. And the Democrats have decided to allow them a place, a seat at the table. Now, there have been a lot of people that have been speaking out specifically about Hassan Piker because of his rhetoric and, you know, good for them. But that doesn't change the fact that they're still supporting Saeed in Michigan. It doesn't change the fact that they're still like, oh, mom, Donnie's great. It doesn't change the fact that they're like, well, you know, we should, we're a big tent party. So we should allow the DSA. If you're allowing the DSA in to your to caucus with you, you are allowing communists in to caucus. Yes, you. But this is the point. Squishy Democrats are letting it all happen because they're like, look, whatever wins. So now, what was it? AOC just reupped to DSA. This is big news. She's been a member of the DSA for a long time. She just reupped. She is national recognition. DSA can it no longer local chapter stuff. This is, this is for the DSA has taken over me. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's a, it's a serious issue that needs to obviously be dealt with. And you, you talked about the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party is very fragmented. You know, we've always heard about the fact that, well, mag is a cult. We've always heard, we've heard this promulgated and, you know, just reported constantly. That's not obviously true. But the fact that Trump has like very strong endorsement power and the fact that the Republican Party sort of unifies around him is a very good thing because it's not like the Democratic Party where like Gavin Newsom is like pulling it like 20% or something. We don't know who may even, who would be the nominee in 2028. We don't have any of this information because again, it's so decentralized. The DSA, like they're scared to call out Hassan Piker. They have to like, you know, have these secret meetings and do whatever to try to see if they want to call them out because they have people like Bernie Sanders, Ivan Omar's or Mamdani, Rashida Taleeb, ALC. They have so many of these different people and they have actually some power. There's no uniformity, there's no authority when it comes to the Democratic Party. And having a party like that is a lot worse than people saying, well, mag is a cult because people actually have a leader that they can follow and rally upon. Although there may be dissidents in the Republican Party, we've seen them, Thomas Massey Fortuna was a great example of that. But dissidents get thrown out. People that want to be on the more radical end of the Republican Party, they get thrown out if they show that this is who they are. With the Democratic Party, it's decentralized and you can be a Marxist, you can be a Communist, you can be a Socialist or a Democratic Socialist. It's like, you know, it's like basically poop, but with like sprinkles on top of it. You know, it's Democratic Socialism. And that's totally fine, that's acceptable. There's no, like Gavin Newsom can't come out and do an interview and or anything and say, hey, this is unacceptable. This is not our party because the party belongs to nobody. It's free for all when it comes to the Democrats. Yeah, I do think that there will be a coalescing the future of the Democrat Party and it's going to be a,
a far more left leaning party than it has been historically, just because that's the way the winds are blowing. You know, people that want to remain in power, like they're gonna say okay. So I guess we're the pro-Palestinian movement party, we're the anti-Israel party, we're the anti-business party, and they're gonna lose a lot of funding because for, I mean, you've already seen a lot of people like Bill Acman used to give a bunch of money to Democrats. He gave a ton of money to Barack Obama, but because he's Jewish and he's also in the tech industry and in the tech world, like they're just like up, you're a billionaire, you're a bad guy, you gave money to Israel up, you're a bad guy, they're going to end up alienating a lot of their funding. - And the Democrats have been struggling with money already, but I also find it hypocritical how Mom Donnie sort of ran on, I mean, he didn't necessarily run on this as a policy because he's a mayor, he can't do anything about billionaires necessarily, but he was asked, he was like, yeah, I don't think billionaires should exist. Yet his number one single contributor, individual contributor to his campaign, was Elizabeth Simons, who is a multi-billionaire, contradiction there, but, you know. - Well, I mean, they will talk to talk. I mean, I don't know what would actually, you know, when the rubber meets the road, I don't know what they would actually do, whether they would be like, all right, we got to go ahead and expropriate our billionaires as well. But the idea that, oh, you know, we can't allow people to become billionaires and we need to take their property until they're not a billionaire anymore. I mean, I don't know how you do that and still expect to have a functioning society. Because, look, how dare you be successful and wealthy and disproportionately contribute to American society? - I mean, yes, I completely agree, like you should be able to make as much money as you want, that one as much property as you can get your hands on. But these are the people that are motivated to do that, the people that are skilled enough to do that. Like, they're the people that employ everybody. We're not everybody, but they employ a vast amount of people, right? Like, you wanna go ahead and say, well, Jeff Bezos, you can't own Amazon anymore because it's too big and too successful and then you're gonna fire all the people that work there. I mean, Mom Donnie himself has a policy. I think he's suing Amazon because Amazon sub-contracts for delivers in New York City. So, you're telling me that he has to hire these people directly, they're not contractors, they're gonna be employees of Amazon, but you don't want him to be a billionaire. Like, you can't have, you can't have it both ways, you can't have big companies that are-- - I always wonder, like, why, why cap it at a billionaire? And by the way, this is always like a trick question for like people to say that, well, billionaires shouldn't exist. Ask them, why should people that have $10 million exist? Because I get like having a million. - Yeah, yeah, having a million dollars, maybe because, maybe you have a property or two, and your property and your assets, for example, appreciate over time. And you can become a millionaire that way. It doesn't mean you have a million dollars in a bank. But why should someone be able to have $10 million? Like, 'cause the response to someone saying, well, billionaires probably should exist is that, well, what does someone need a billion dollars for? And, I mean, typically they actually think that billionaires are like Scrooge McDock, they have like a bunch of money hidden somewhere and they can just float in their money. That's not how it works. It's obviously in stocks and assets. But I find it, they always struggle explaining why someone needs, 'cause they always say, no one needs a billion dollars, right? Why does someone need $10 million? Or $5 million? No one needs that amount of money either, right? - Indeed. - And one point I like to bring up because I think more people should know it is, do you know what the average salary of a millionaire is? The United States? - What is it? Do you have a guess? - The average salary of a millionaire in the United States. - 200K? - Close. - 160, 180. - Okay. - It's pretty wild to think because the GDP of the United States is like 95, 95K. This means that if you're at 95K and you're single, which is GDP, you know what I mean? You could save up and be a millionaire within 10 years. - Yeah. - So what does it really mean to be a millionaire? We're getting to the point where being a millionaire is gonna just mean middle class. - Right. - And it's kind of freaky to think because, you know, if you, I remember watching it like signfelder or whatever, I think it was signfelder where there's like an episode where like a line's dating somebody. It's like he makes six figures. But six figures back then would be like making 250 to 300K per year now, which is a lot more. So it was like, wow. So being a, making six figures back then, being a millionaire meant a lot more. Now we're looking at houses bungalows that cost half a million dollars. So people get into that level of asset control. What, what is happening is with hyperinflation and we see this with these socialist policies, they're gonna say who needs to be a billionaire? Sure, in 100 years, when a billion dollars a year is the average salary, no one will be allowed to be a billionaire. - Right. - Or when the average salary is 700,000 and then middle class people have a billion in assets 'cause it's just inflation. Although who knows at that point? - Yeah. - Yeah, I mean, well, the left is going to have a reckoning and I don't know exactly, and I feel like I'm fairly confident that the far left is gonna win. I don't know what happens to the, you know, the centrist Democrat. There will be some. I mean, Federman's not gonna stay a Democrat for long. He's gonna leave the party. I'm fairly confident of that. But I don't know what happens to, you know, the other people that are like, man, I live in a purple district and, you know, I can't really say you gotta get really, you know, we're gonna eat the rich and blah, blah, blah. I don't see, I don't see a future for them in the Democrat party and I don't know if the, if they're right leaning enough to become Republicans. But at the same time, I say that. But I mean, remember Donald Trump, Tulsi Gabbard, RFK, there are so many people that used to be Democrats that have come to the, you know, whatever the, what is considered today to be the right, even though they're not particularly far right, they're classified as far right by the left. But that's only because of the left's perspective. Um, you know, maybe there are going to be a lot more people that are gonna be like, well, I guess if I want to be a centrist, I have to be a Republican or at least not a Democrat. Yeah. Let's jump to the story from the international business times. Completely unfounded. Texas Roadhouse responds to viral allegations over racist Facebook group and food tampering story. So here's the story. Somebody posted a screenshot of a woman saying that 400,000 white people are spitting on your food. If you're black, Texas Roadhouse and Logan, Logan's Roadhouse completely fake. No evidence. Of course, it's just ludicrous. And now you've got liberal activists. No joke with millions of followers posting. They have to apologize for this. They did nothing. They are attempting to exercise communist force. Again, we lived through this already. The good, good commercial, a bad commercial dude just issued a, a cancel culture pathetic loser apology. Talk about spineless losers. The problem we had with woke was these pathetic losers, like the guy from Goodgood apologizing despite doing nothing wrong. So if, so good on Texas Roadhouse saying, screw off. It's a hoax. No good on good, good. Because this dude put on an eight minute video being like, yeah, we're sorry. They made a commercial that was meant to be like obsession. That was it. People got mad because he pushed a woman in it. Pro obsession did a lot worse to a woman. That movie is the biggest movie ever. This dude should have come out and he should have called out all the companies that were coming after him and said, you are pathetic. This was nowhere near as it reaches the movie itself. I will not take this instead. May a culpa. Yeah. Cancel culture is back with a vengeance. They just dropped two nuclear bombs on the culture. And I don't think that the right is unified enough at this point to stop it. With the likes of Tucker and Candice and everybody else, the right is fragmented. The left is taking advantage and they are absolutely going to cancel its back. I think it's, well, I'll just start with using my black privilege to sort of comment on this issue. I remember just scrolling through TikToks. I do that. I'm pretty young and a lot of us young people are on TikTok at least to just scroll and see different things. And I kept seeing people talking about Texas Roadhouse and how like if you're a black person, don't eat at Texas Roadhouse and I was confused because I was like, well, I was just like in a Texas Roadhouse not too long ago. A few times with my producer, I think once with my producer, we had a different spot before and with my friends and family. Like I've been to Texas Roadhouse. It's always been a great experience. I love the food and I never experienced any like weird racism there. But the fact that people are willing to believe a random screenshot without any evidentiary substantiation for the claim is ridiculous. And it just speaks to how people consume information or just confer like consume the news. Like people actually view TikTok videos that make like claims, like any evidence as evidence itself and as valid or having credibility like we need to have more discernment. We need to be able to like look at screenshots, look at people saying things and say, okay, what's your evidence for this claim? Because if you have an egregious claim that can smear a smear company or smear a restaurant business that can defame, that can lose the money and revenue and profit, they can really attack them and hurt them at the very least have evidence.
for what would yield such an attack. You know, have evidence for this. So, and I have to give, you know, a praise to all of the black people that started going to Texas Roadhouse and filming themselves just having a great time. - Oh, are they? - Yeah, they're a bunch of, I kept seeing videos of black men and women going to Texas Roadhouse and just eating normally. And the comment sections would be filled with a bunch of people just so mad. They'd be like, you're a coon, you're a coon, you know? How dare you go there and eat there when they don't want us there and stuff like that? And it's like, come on. You know, I'm actually going to go to Texas Roadhouse as soon as possible, maybe on Friday or something, just because this whole scandal is going on now. It's ridiculous. Like, have like a random Facebook screenshot really got a bunch of people going on Texas Roadhouse? What, is it because it's Texas or something? Like, I don't, like, no, it's fake. It's because the socialists are like, we are going to burn anyone who opposes us to the ground. Clearly it's fake and guys, it's obviously that they are trying as hard as they can with the good, good stuff too. Like the fact that the costume, good, good and Roadhouse all have at the exact same time. Activists were like, we're going to nuke their culture. And I actually, I want to say this right now, no one should buy anything or nobody should support good, good, good deserves to be completely blown off the cultural map. Gone, cowards are not welcome. Texas Roadhouse, I'm going to go spend double and I'm going to tip $1,000. They should show whoever this person is that has defamed them. You can't, it's not like you can't. You can't. For damages? What damages? All the people that made videos for them. Notify it. I mean, I'd have to go through it. It's impossible. Yeah. This is why there's no defamation loss. It's ever in American culture. The way our laws work, you have to prove tangible individual, quantifiable damages. Wow. Texas Roadhouse can say, because someone posted this, everyone else posted, it's going to say who is the first person posted. Then they're going to say, I free speech. I saw a post. I posted it. We don't want to do about it. They're going to say where the post comes from. I don't know. Prove it. Good luck. Do you remember that time that someone said they found a finger in like a Wendy's chili bowl or something like that? Yeah. Yeah. I think they ended up suing that person and winning. Yeah. That's, that's, that's defamation per se. Okay. You, you, you, you could argue that whoever posted the screenshot is responsible. Congratulations. You're going to, you're going to try and squeeze blood from a turn up. Yeah. Yeah. Texas Roadhouse can sue the guy who has no money or, or, or, or, or for all we know, lives in, in Russia or around. Yeah. The guy probably has no money. That's one, right? So even if you do sue him, one, you're not going to really make any money from it. And two, the damage has already sort of been done. Yeah. This disinformation has permeated and has disseminated all across social media. And you obviously have the white saviors coming out and, and you know, they're going to make their videos. They're going to be, you know, they're going to be a soy boy about it. They're going to say, oh, my God, I can't believe Texas Roadhouse has been used as a weapon of white supremacy or whatever buzzword they're going to come up with. Now, it's, it's a very unfortunate thing to see because the truth is is that not going to say the average person, a lot of people, I don't know how to quantify this, but a lot of people are really just not that smart. I mean, I, I could never, ever just hear a random rumor that was posted, posted by a random Facebook account with a screenshot that someone starts like just permeating online and just use that as my basis to judge a restaurant, especially when there's no evidence. I can't talk to anybody. I can't see what else they have to say. I can't see where this first game from. I can't see what the evidence, like 400,000 white people spitting on black people. Like how, where do you, like, how do you even come up with that stuff? That's the thing that got me like that. And I've been thinking about it ever since we started talking about 400,000 people. Does, does Texas Roadhouse actually have 400,000 white people that's not what the post said. The post said we're at restaurants all the, all across the country, especially Texas Roadhouse. Okay, right. Okay. So, and because we're at, so we're in multiple restaurants and particularly at tech, well, the people that are the people that are doing the spitting fairly. But yeah, like it's, it's just, we were talking before the show a little bit and really what happens on social media, like people obviously don't check. And again, I'm guilty of this. There's been times where I had to take stuff down off that I post or whatever on X and it's really just about people that hear a story that presents the narrative that they already believe. Right. And they're like, that's got to be true. That hit me right in the, in the, in the dopamine center and I believe it. And all the things, this, this, you know, backs up what I already think. And so I'm just going to go ahead and, and push this. And then on top of it, the whole cancel culture stuff like that, that is another, you know, another self-satisfying thing, another dopamine hit. Look at what I did. They were racist. They were doing racist thing. They were racist there. And we got them in trouble. We hopefully I'll get, we can get some of those people, or get some of those businesses shut down. We can get those people fired. We can, we can harm people for the harm that they've caused. We're self-righteous. We're the good guys. So it's just, but, but, but again, I, I, I, I don't think when you look at a coordinated campaign that happens like this, they posted a fake screenshot. It's not about being the good guys. It's someone sitting there saying, who can we target? Let's target a seemingly innocuous business. It's a large. They'll defend themselves in the public sphere. They're not, they're not a national icon like McDonald's, Texas Road House. It seems like a, a trial balloon for communists to being like, can we bring this control back? Can we beat the ever-living F out of the American people once again and look at good, good. Yeah. They took the commercial they made, snipped out the first 15 seconds. So it's just him knocking them into the ground. And then there's, there's video, there's photos, and I think they're fake of dick sporting goods taking their products down. They showed the funny part. You saw what? They showed the funny part, the funny part of the commercial, right? So when I see an image and it, and I tweeted this and it says this is insane because they're like dick sporting goods is now taking down good, good merchandise. For all I know, some random person walked in, took those hats off, took a picture, said it's happening. It went viral. But dropped to his knees like a pansy little piece of crap and said, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry everybody. So this is the world you get when you are in a world of cowards, right? So Texas Roadhouse gets my money and good, good gets my disdain. And just to add to your point, I, listen, when you're neutral towards somebody, like even if you don't really know anybody and someone makes a crazy claim about them, you typically ask, like, okay, what's your evidence, like, what's, like, what's, what's the proof that this person did this thing or whatever? If you know somebody and you're connected to them and you're a friend of them, then typically what you, what you get is like you're, you trust them more, you're typically on their side more and you really have to see the evidence before you go on with it. The fact that so many people before seeing any credible evidence or really looking any sources or anything have already taken to defame, to attack, to smear, to boycott Texas Roadhouse, that tells you that it is what you say, it is confirmation biased and they, they have just been waiting, have this moment. This is what they want. It's not about the fact that this is real for them, they want, they want information like this or disinformation like this to be out there just so they can have that opportunity to smear and attack white people and Texas Roadhouse and just to, just to be a victim because there's like, in leftist politics, there's always this sort of, this sort of affinity, this sort of strive towards victim mentality, I am a perpetual victim, it's the billionaires, it's the white people and even to an extent, it's the Jews, there's someone responsible for my failures, for my, for me being inadequate, insufficient, whatever it may be, people always want to cry and complain when it comes to people of color that are leftist, well, typically blame white people for all of their problems, it's the white system, it's the white business, it's capitalism, it's, you know, it's every, it's colonialism, it's the slavery that happened 200 something years ago, this is why I make the amount of money that I make today. So this is typical leftist politics, just I'm a victim and information, disinformation spread, I'm going to use disinformation to spread my victim mentality and it's, it's so pathetic, by the way, can I just say that it's like, it's so pathetic, like the reason why I am not on the left and the reason why I'm a conservative above everything else, above being a Republican or above, you know, Trump, above everything is because I want to be principled and disciplined and I also want to have sovereignty and autonomy, I don't want leftist telling me I can't get an ID because I'm black, I don't want leftist telling me that cops are out to get me, I don't want to live in a perpetual victimhood mentality where it seems like white people are always oppressing me, you know, I don't want to live in that, that, that, that type of, I don't want to have that mindset, you know, so, yeah, I mean, again, this is something that we talk about a lot on the show, the, the, like, to your point, the victim mentality, like that's something that has actually been, has been taught in schools now. There's this guy named Paulo Freirey that wrote a book called the pedagogy of the oppressed and I think he wrote it in the 70s and it made it into the hands of one particular educator in the early 80s and it spread like wildfire and you teach, basically, it got to the schools of education, so the schools that teach teachers in the early 90s or the late 90s, late 80s, early 90s and then it started to become, you know, the standard way of looking at the world for basically all the teachers, most teachers in America, you teach kids.
to see the world from an oppressor and oppressed-- - Narrative. - Narrative, everywhere, body. - Everywhere. Whether it be racially, or whether it be economically, or, you know, what have you, there's always some way that you can characterize a dynamic as there is someone that has more power and someone that has less power. - Ailed it, and that's how left to see it. Like the far left, this is why the horseshoe theory works so well. The far right and the far left sort of believe in the same thing in that sense, where, in which the far left view everything from the oppressor sort of standpoint, in which, you know, Palestine over Israel, because Palestine is brown, and they're supposedly the indigenous people. - Israel is all of it. Don't forget how they say it. Israel is a white settler colonial state. And the reason why America's illegitimate is because America is a white Anglo-Saxon settler colonial manifest destiny state. And the way the far right sees everything, they also see themselves as victims. Well, the Jews, the Jews, the Jews. You know, world's jury, Jews are responsible for all of our problems. And this is why Nick Flandt has talks about how he's oppressed, how, you know, they're oppressed by the Jews. And the Jews are the reason for all of the issues, you know? So the left sees it as white supremacy and just white people. And the far right sees it as like, well, just the Jews. They're the reasons for all the problems in the world. And they agree-- - Oh, the left now, too, so. - The left now, too. - Yeah, yeah, well, the left is basically on the same world with the Jews now. It's like, well, it's the Jews and the whites. And to be fair, they don't make a distinction between the Jews and the whites. So it's, they're on the same sort of point there, which is why when Lindsey Graham died, and I know people may not, may have disagreeing opinions on Lindsey Graham. But, again, you had Shankweeger, Anaqasparian, Nick Flandtess, all tweet basically, Hannah, so it's all tweet basically the same thing, you know? It's not even just about, hey, you don't have to issue, you know, you don't have to tell everyone that you're mourning him or that you're upset that he died. But it's the fact that, you know, you're going around saying good riddance. Anaqasparian posted the day that he died. And Nick Flandtess also posted the day that he died. They both said good riddance, like they're both happy that a Republican died. And so it's because they're so close to each other. They're certainly closer to each other than I am to a regular liberal. You know, a regular, actual, classical liberal. Yeah. And to be honest with you, the policies that they endorse, like, they're very similar. They about the only difference between like the groipers and the far left is like, the groipers are like, well, it's just for white people or just for Americans that are from America. Whereas the left is like, no, we can let everybody in and give them all the same stuff, right? And actually, we need to actually defeat whiteness, like whiteness is something that needs to be battled. Yes. Yeah. And it is nice to see, you know, people pushing back against that. I mean, it's been pushed back. People on the right have, again, like I said earlier, the people on the right have been very, very diligent about saying these, these ideas are not allowed in the big tent, right? So the mega, you know, mega people are generally pretty big tent, right? You know, they were, they were making reaching out to a lot of different people with different political perspectives and stuff. But the far right, they've been like, no, we don't accept this kind of, you know, race based, you know, political identity, politics stuff. We're not about that. And the left, they just haven't, they don't have that in them. And I think it's because the left is, has been, so inundated with the, with that oppressor versus oppressed, looking at white people as the oppressor. The parent oppressors, by the way, it's like they, they don't think black people can be racist. They don't have the ability to be racist. And the white people inherently because they're white, they're oppressive and they're racist and they're colonized. It's such a pathetic, demonic weight of you life. It's just, I don't, I honestly don't understand how leftists like live with themselves in that sort of, if they actually genuinely believe, I don't know how they live with them. I don't know how any of them do. C's don't believe anything and the people who are running the show, no, they're manipulating the NPCs. Right. For that, you know, I, I read this Christian thing that said that there's this group that believes there's only, well, actually, no, it's might be, it might be somewhat related to, I forgot the name of the group, but, but they think there's only 750,000 insolved people in the whole world. And maybe true. I mean, give, I mean, I'm just saying, like, give in what we've been seeing. That may be true, okay? Because maybe it's a little low. That would explain me, you know, seeing all of this, like, low like you slop, you know, people that, you know, see one screenshot and believe it and run off. Yeah, I was like, one screenshot, let's boycott this company, racist, no evidence. I mean, I mean, the, come on, I mean, it's not insult. Yeah. I never thought about that. I mean, even, like, even if you were to give the, the, you know, give the devil is to do like Jordan Peterson likes to say and, and take the, the arguments that the left makes at face value, like they break down so quickly, right? Like the idea that, you know, they're only one group of people can be racist, only white people. It's, it's just a slight of hand, they change the meaning of the word or they use a different definition. And then throughout a conversation, they'll slide the other one in and, you know, it, it's like the, like the, you know, where's the, the red ball underneath the cups. It's like, which one, which racist are you using? Are you talking about power and privilege, or are you talking about bigotry or whatever? And, and that kind of, you know, has, has had for a long time kept people that were arguing against them, kept them on the back foot because they, they didn't understand the slight of hand or weren't prepared for the slight of hand. Because people that have a, a, and when I say this, I mean, like, liberal in the classical liberal sense, if you're, if you're not, you know, terribly effective, because liberal doesn't really mean anything anymore. Because like, a lot of people that are like really communist, identify as liberal, a lot of leftist, like liberal progressives is now a thing else. Yeah. I, I call them, you know, either shit lives or progressives, you know, and, and whereas I don't consider, you know, I don't consider conservatives to be actually liberals, this in, in the, you know, the, the American sense, the idea of like, hey, we can actually agree on terminology and have a discussion. That's something that you're only going to get in the center and to the right nowadays. You're not going to get that from the left. You're going to get, again, slight of hand, the, the kind of, you know, dancing around meanings and changing meanings, so that way they can essentially, you know, basically just to win the argument and, and the right is caught on to that, you know, people in the center, they, they, most people that would engage in political conversations nowadays are aware that the terms, the meaning of the terms change, depending on what is functional for that particular interaction. We share a dictionary, we share, we have the same lexicon, but we don't have the same dictionary, you know, we'll use the same words, but the meanings aren't the same from, from the left, particularly the far left and the center and right nowadays. Sure. I mean, they, they love mischaracterizing people. Like, I've been called a fascist before. So it's like, and what they don't realize because the left is not really made up of intelligent people, like their, their composition is not made up of the brightest, because they always seem to like have a five year old understanding of everything. It's like billionaires shouldn't exist. It's like, or like Medicare for all billionaires shouldn't exist. Everyone should have a home. It's like, that's the answer that you get from a five year old when you ask them what they would do when they would be, if they were present. They don't. Should everyone get ice cream? They don't understand the logistics. They don't understand how they can't, they can't, I, yeah, a feature, but I don't, I don't want to interrupt. Yeah, no, for sure. And so that's what you, you sort of get from their ideology and I was trying to get something else when it comes to, to just left us in general and they're sort of, um, thinking. They have a childish way of viewing basically everything, people, people, people need to understand something. Do you guys know what tetra chromancy is? Tetra chromacy? That's where you only see certain colors, right? No, that's when you can see more colors. And only what we do. Yeah, yeah. Hmm. So here's what happens. Uh, there's a mutation on the X chromosome that, uh, moves one of the rods over. Or I'm over simplifying it. If you are a dude, you have one X chromosome. That means your eyes are going to have cones moved over what that, what does that mean? Your color blend, the, uh, the cones for, uh, I think red and green begin to overlap. So in your eye, those colors basically are molded together. There are these glasses you can buy. They're really cool. And they cut out a piece of the spectrum. So it, instead of overlapping now, it splits out the middle and it actually creates a distinction of color, but you can see for women, they have two X chromosomes. If they have a mutation on only one of those chromosomes, they have a fourth rod and cone, or it's, it might need to be a cone, I'm not sure, which allows them to see hundreds of times more colors than anyone else doesn't sign. They could not tell you the color they are seeing. It's impossible. Wow. It's impossible. Do imagine a color you've never seen before, you know, can you define red? Only with things that are not colors. Yeah. No, I think of, uh, the movie mask where the, the guy that had the, this figured face took a girl into the room and he, he put a rock in her hand that were a boiling potato, it put a potato out of the boiling water and put it in her hand and he's like, that's red and then, and when it cools down, it's pink. And that was the best description you could get.
come up with to give up to tell a blind person. - Oh, I said the mask. I was going like, I have no idea what to do. - Oh, mask, mask, mask, mask, mask, mask. - Yes, now I know. Like when you said, when you said mask, I for some reason just thought, "Jim, the mask." - Yeah, Jim Carrey. - I didn't want to go on with the ugly guy in the blind chick. - No, different. - So you can't define red. When you look up the definition, it's like the color of an apple, you know? - Yeah, it's color of blood. - 'Cause I was gonna respond with red, but that would be circular reasoning. - So here's the issue. This is why people don't know the color of blood, 'cause when they're, so a buddy of mine walked a one day when we were teenagers, he walks downstairs and he's wearing pink sweatpants. And everyone started giggling. And they were like, "Oh, what are you doing?" And he was like, "What?" And they were like, "Why are you wearing pink sweatpants?" He's like, "What do you mean, they're white?" And they were like, "No, bro, you're wearing, you're wearing, you know, or I don't know color," he said, but he was like, "What?" And they're like, "Bro, you colorblind." He's like, "I don't know!" And he was colorblind. So, people who can't understand economics, their brain does not have the capability to perceive these colors you can perceive. - Right, maybe it's an issue with cognitive limitation also. - But since we know this is true, there's also synesthesia, are you familiar with this? - I've heard of it. - This is where you can hear colors. - Really? - Yep. - And there are a lot of famous musicians who can hear colors. And so they say, when they hear, they can, like with the sound, they can know what color is, their brain, they can almost, they can see it. How do we know that's true? We did two tests. First, we played a sound and asked random people to describe the color of the sound. Then we asked the people with synesthesia to do it. Then, several months later, the same people were brought back in. They played the same sound and said, "Tell me what color it is." People without synesthesia gave random answers. People with it correctly identified every sound as the color. So they said, "This might be real." Let's do the same thing during an MRI scan and found the visual cortex was lighting up when they heard noise. And they said, "They're brains are actually trans." Now, how can someone who can perceive something you can't explain to you something you cannot perceive? So now understand all of these really dumb people out there. When you go and say, "Do you understand scarcity?" You might as well be saying, "There is a color. It is global globe. You can't see it." And they're like, "I don't know what you're talking about." Like, you're a fascist. Their brains literally cannot process it. And this is what a lot of people don't understand. They project their intelligence. I had a friend recently, I was talking to my friend like, "We could go." And he was like, "He's not a political guy." And he's like, "Why are they like what did you do to piss these people off?" And I was like, "Oh, nothing. I voted for Trump, I guess." No, that's not what I mean. I mean, like you pissed them off somehow, right? And I was like, "No, I voted for Trump or something." And they're like, "Dude, I understand, but I'm saying like you said or did something." And I was like, "Bro, stop projecting your intelligence on people who don't have it." You think in your mind because I only get reasonably upset with people, they must be reasonably upset. But they do not have the cognitive function to understand why they're mad. - Right. - People need to understand this. - And I was real quick. I believe the same is true for God. 'Cause I've asked myself this, I had group Catholic, had a couple of years where I was like, the TV told me, you know, be atheist. And I said, "Oh, that makes sense." I was watching Bill Maher and stuff. And then I was around 18 or 19. I had some good conversations with my Catholic school's miserable, my priest didn't teach me anything. And then I actually had some people explain some things to me. Then I read some books. And then I was like, I actually feel the presence of God, like it is apparent to me. Plain as I see this guy blue, God exists. How could there be people who don't understand it? So I had a conversation with a guy, I love this story. And I've told him a million times, but it's worth repeating, I'm sure everyone will appreciate it. He was a drug addict, punk rock a guy, who was living a life of debauchery. And he said, one day he was in the woods, like a forest preserve in their partying, and they're like, just sleeping outside. And he walks away from the group to take a leak. And while he's pissing in the woods, a powerful voice booms from within him saying, "Why are you doing this?" And he had an anxiety panic attack. And he said, and he started freaking out. The voice said again, "Why are you doing this to yourself?" And he said, "I don't know." He then sought answers. He asked people, what was this? What was his experience? And he found the Christian church. And they explained to him, you are, it's a legitimate question. You're someone who's trying to help you. Someone loves you. He turned his life around, became a Christian, opened a small business, got off drugs. And he was like, he said to me, "I know you'll probably not believe me, but trust me, it happened." I was like, I believe you. I was like, I don't think a drug addict partier turns his life 180 degrees in a few months unless something truly profound happened. And I'm thinking about that experience and I've heard that experience from so different people. And then I meet atheists and they're like, there's no God. You don't know that. And I'm like, no, I do. 'Cause I've sensed this thing. I don't know what it was. I read about it. And then one day I was like, wow. I can almost see something in my mind when I learn and I understand this. And it's like, no, you're wrong. And I told, I was talking to Brian Shapiro. And I said, Brian, just because you can't see something doesn't mean it, it's not real. And just because you can't comprehend it doesn't mean it's not real either. Because like, there's a lot of things that cats can't comprehend and dogs can't comprehend and any sort of like mammal, anything to the fall under like the mammalian species or anything that would even be like a reptile. They can't comprehend certain things. You can't teach them algebra. You can't teach them even maybe addition to an extent. You can't teach them how computers work or how to read and write. These are just things that they can't cognitively comprehend. And so God very well could be one of those things in which I think so. Yeah, God could be one of those things in which like you can know that it exists. You can know a degree of it. But we're also cognitively limited. Like we are not like, you know, I obviously believe in evolution. I believe that there has been a progression of intelligence when it comes to human species and we've accomplished more. But we are, I think biologically limited to how smart we're capable. We're not omni benevolent. We don't have all the knowledge. We're not the most intelligent thing that could possibly probably exist. And so we're also limited in comprehension. But the point that I was going to make was that we left this love mischaracterizing things and they don't understand how it actually harms them. Like if you call everyone a fascist, if Matt nuclear is a fascist and Trump is a fascist and Tim Pools a fascist and can't it's like everyone's a fascist, well then that term loses that sort of scary meaning which is what you're using it for. They use fascists not because they understand it but because of the scary or, you know, the scary fear-mongering connotation associated with it. Same thing with genocide. - Just my final point on perception. I think there are religious folk who can sense the presence of God and you just have this feeling, you know. It's just like in my mind, I can almost see something. And then I think there are people who can't but are faithful and they just trust and they read and they learn and they say there must be. And then there are atheists who don't have attachment to the knowledge that humanity has passed down for thousands of years. And so they just say, "If I can't see it, you can't either." And that's what I was saying to Brian. I was like, if you're color blind you can't see colors known, could describe it to you. And if you know that there are people who can't perceive reality the same way you can, you have to recognize some people probably can perceive God and you can't. And you need to recognize them. As a color blind man says, "I know red exists because everybody seems to be able to identify the picture that is red all at the same time." So imagine this, there are three paintings on a wall and you are color blind. And there's 37 people all around you. And a man then says, "Please point to the red painting and you look up and you see three bluish yellow paintings and you go, they're all the same. There's no red." And then everyone in the room all collectively points at the red one. Our art should say at the exact same one. And you're going around and you're going, you're pulling a fast one on me. You all agreed beforehand to point to the one on the left because they're all the same color. No one actually knows what red is. You're, how do all of these people know something that you don't? Perhaps you can't perceive it. And so I think we recognize that about many of these atheists. And I'm not trying to disrespect atheists. I'm just saying, I must see something you don't. And you must be convinced I'm not able to see what I actually see. Well, I can tell you this, I see it. Clear as the sky is blue. There is a God that just. And that's when we go to these liberals and you can't explain economics and you can't explain anything about Trump, it gets so rudimentary that you could say something like Trump's not a fascist, but they don't know what the word means. And they don't care. That's another part of it is they're not capable. They don't care. They're not capable and that's not their goal because their goal is to use the term that everyone knows to have a negative or a fear-mongering connotation to it or something that's associated with it in order to defame and smear and attack people. And it's actually not really been going too well for them because now that everyone is a fascist,
That the term has lost its scary meaning. Yep, you know if there's this like very scary term that no one wants to use because It's really insulting towards a person it really defames their character really tax reputation and It gets used occasionally and very selectively then everyone is like whoa you call that person a fascist or whatever word I could make up But but if you take that word and everyone has it well, then that word has lost its value It's the same way that everyone wants what they can't get and if everyone has like I don't know like let's say an iPhone 35 comes out. Okay, if everyone has an iPhone 35 Well, then you're not the cool kid for having it. That's not a special thing anymore So given the fact that they've called everyone essentially a fascist now even liberals they've called fascists well then It doesn't have that scary meaning. It just means bad guy. Yep. Just means we're gonna go to you all rumble rants and super chats So smash the like button and share the show the uncensored portion of the show is of course coming up at 10 o'clock You don't want to miss it our Tim Caz discord members get to call in and talk to us and our guest General T 45k says if Russia were to launch a single nuke America should I would use that event as our excuse to finally do what needs to be done I'm Russia That needs to be done Everyone else John water says Jesus fastened a whip to use against money changes in his temple He didn't buy one. He didn't trade for one. He made one for violence Well, I mean he didn't the scripture doesn't specify that he whipped everybody up impersonal But I will point out making one of those things does not it doesn't come easy He had a long steady sustained amount of anger that it's staining over hours to in order to make that and bust up the house of God Force the aim chain says damages I was going to spend a million dollars with good good for a merge giveaway But after this we are not with that tactic qualify as damages Only if you actually were in the process of having a conversation so you can't just make up something if like Tim Caz for instance Actually had emails where we were like let's do a deal. We're talking a million bucks here and then once this happened I said listen I don't know what it is. You're involved in but we don't want to be involved in this so we're pulling out I'm sorry the deals know good then they have damages, but good luck getting blood from a turnip All right Was to say Thames, I mean this in the with the utmost respect nuclear Matt reminds me of Larry elder Absolutely fantastic discussions wishing you a continued bright future. Wow. Thank you. I appreciate it. That is a massive compliment my elders fantastic Mitch do says and let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one Yep, I've heard that it's a fulfillment of prophecy. It's an Isaiah same old man says send Krasnstein to Guantanamo Bay for the rest of his life Yes, we do want to be sentenced to prison for 50 years. I don't I want him to get a ticket I want them to say we're issuing a a misdemeanor fine and six six months of court supervision Courts of provision just means that after six months they just it's dropped off your record like it didn't happen They just need to say we will enforce against this and then the next time someone does it they say okay now You're being elevated to probation and they do it again. Now it's jail The point is we just need to say we are going to do it I got to be honest if they came to his house and arrested him or reigned him and then he had a court date a month later And they said you got to pay 250 bucks and you're gonna get six months of supervision if you don't commit any crimes for six months It'll drop off your record a lot of it would stop. Yeah, just dead and it's right people would be like whoa because nobody wants to go to court No, but the dude literally committed a crime so Indeed Well, let's see what's cooking with some more superchance Tricky Higgie says Augustus Dorico Rainmaker just experimented on Alaskan citizens and sprayed the clouds to make it rain Everyone is furious that a company can do that without Without any government control. We are not a science experiment. Did he really we had him on the show. I don't know Yeah, I remember his green room episode Was it what oh, yeah, look at this a long time ago. Oh, wow Using drones Uh-oh, that's not good. I wrote You know what guys? I want to say something. I want to talk about AI and uncensored portions. I had an epiphany. I'm pro AI I'm pro if you want to know what that means Whether or not I'm serious you got to go to The uncensored portion of the show, but we'll grab some more of your posts here Raymond G Stanley, Jr. Tim reading a Christian thing is a level up What was that a reference to? I'm not sure. Yeah, I'm not really sure either I'm not sure I'll be talking about Raven You mentioned something about a Christian thing and referring to how only 750,000 oh, yes Yes, yes, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, there's some I don't know what it was. It was an article I saw I read too much every day and this is not one that I stopped to actually go through but I saw a paragraph and it was like It said Christian group believes there's only 750,000 and sold people and then I I was like, oh, that's interesting and you know Do you know many famous people there are in the world? How many there's about 500,000? Between 300 500,000 There's about 300 to 500,000 people that Wikipedia deems notable enough to have an entry as to who they are and what they do Yeah Maybe those were people it's all Yeah Maybe that'll upset people John light. This is Americans wouldn't care about World War three prove me wrong Well, if World War three started I wouldn't be surprised if the West Coast states a Trump did this and then you get DSA at a third of the Democratic Party Guys, I think people didn't understand what it means that the DSA is 30% right this is where you have a room and On the left side of the room is a small group is a hundred legislators in let's just say let's just hypothetical number in Oregon State assembly comes 30 of the people on the left side of the room were all DSA Then you've got people on the right side of the room who are moderate to conservative and very few conservative Then in the middle you have squishy liberals. They all start fighting Trump started this war. It's World War three where our lives are in danger the left side of the room says We have to break away and we have to break away now tell the world we do not support this war We will not be involved in it the people on the right they're few and far between they say that's ridiculous the people in the middle say well We don't we don't we don't we don't know well guess what? The people in the middle abstain the 30% of the right votes the 12% I'm sorry It's the 30% of the left vote and the 12% of the right vote the left wins and then the left starts putting the right and the people in the middle into Guillotine's chopping their heads off and then eventually the DSA will start chopping their own heads off. That's literally the French Revolution There was not that many far-left wackos But you know and I'll say this too. It's of all things in the United States The there's a letter written it might have been Adam's I'm not sure said 30% wants revolution 30% does not and 30% does not care But that's not correct The the actual estimates are unknown But it's believed that around 40% wanted independence about 20 some odd percent Uh, I believe I believe actually I could be wrong. No, I think it was I think I'm getting wrong I think it was 40% that didn't 30 some odd percent that did and then 20 some odd percent that were loyal The middle of the road people were just like leave us alone The revolutionary people won the argument and thus the the the elections And there were even loyalists who argued the Continental Congress had no authority to declare independence for everyone else But they did because they were the active political branch And then when they won it was the best thing ever and boy were they right Sometimes it's the right sometimes wrong. The point is a small faction is all that is required for a revolution So now that you've got 30% If this war kicks off and they do a draft I would not be surprised to see the West Coast states secede and it's at least a minority Like revolutions are not done by even 5% or 3% of the population and on top of that you can look at the Bolsheviks for it You know, I mean the DSA and it's always done by the intellectuals that that sort of a gear on all that like the slave class that Ends up doing their evolutions sort of for them and the DSA is what 85% white and they are college educated basically white people That's that's who runs the DSA college educated white people that are quite young I believe like two thirds of them hold like a bachelor's or over or something like that. So it's like Those are the type of people That would do a revolution if anybody so indeed Non-sequitors has bring on Colonel Doug McGregor and have this discussion. He is nearby That'd be great And in Chavez has currently sitting at Texas Roadhouse and enjoying a stake We'll tune into the show when I get home. Let's go You know be funny if like the whole thing was actually Texas Roadhouse did it right Be like they falsely accused us and then I'm like hey we should go support Texas Roadhouse and they're like it's working He goes to Texas Roadhouse periodically and it's honestly one of my favorite spots They got big delicious potatoes their steaks are pretty dang good I'm gonna be honest. I'm not gonna play stupid games. Texas Roadhouse is not the best steak I've ever had But it's on my top 10 give it like a six Because I've been to some good steak houses But I know this if I want a ribeye and I just want good quality for a good price We we go to I'm not sponsored by them. It's just they got veteran parking. They've always been very nice to us They treat us well We like going there. I like the potato skins with the cheese on top you walk and you pick your steak You walk in and they have a fridge and like which steak would you like and I'm like I want the fattiest ribeye and they're like done And you get that steak. So when I see them lying about an American business to bring their won't cancel culture garbage back at business me off Yeah, I grew up going to Texas Roadhouse. It's great. It's great dates there Yeah, when they still had
- But peanuts, great place. - They still have peanuts? - Well, you could still throw 'em on the floor and stuff. - Oh yeah, that was-- - Now they give you a bucket. - Yeah. - The good old days. - It's a great place to take the kids too. It's temporary time for Texas Roadhouse. - So, you know, screw these people, geez. All right, my friends, we're gonna go to the uncensored portion of the show, and I had a vision. Well, I had a conversation actually with an AI researcher, which was freaky. You may have seen it. - I was watching it. - But I've been thinking a lot about it, and I really do think everyone needs to watch it. We're gonna, let me say this. Check out the Tim Pool show, the interview that we did, if anyone builds it, we all die. And I have a lot to talk about in this regard as to what I think is going to happen. It was like almost, it's about a two-hour conversation where we talk about the potentials of AI, and this guy's a very much an expert, and he breaks down what they're doing, and I've had a vision. We'll talk about that. Rumble.com/TimCastIRL, follow me on X and Instagram at TimCast. Matt, do you want to shout anything out? - Yeah, so I'm with the daily wire, obviously. And my show is The Nuclear Reaction/Matt Nuclear over on YouTube. Matt nuclear on X, Matt nuclear on TikTok, Matt nuclear on Instagram, even Boomer Facebook. But yeah, we recently opened a new YouTube channel, The Nuclear Reaction over on YouTube. - Oh, I am Phil The Remains on Twix. You can check out my Patreon. That's patreon.com/PhilTheRomains.

Bloomberg reporting suggests Russian officials believe Putin may resort to tactical nuclear weapons as peace talks stall, potentially explaining the CIA director's unusual Moscow visit—a move some view as a direct warning against nuclear escalation. Russia is preparing intensified missile attacks on Kyiv, risking accidental NATO strikes and broader conflict.
S. Selective Service System is preparing a draft simulation, with new automated registration linked to Real ID databases beginning December 2026, raising concerns amid a divided, diverse population where conscription may prove impractical. The panel debates whether World War III has already begun, citing multiple simultaneous conflicts and historical patterns of gradual escalation.
Domestically, the State Department designated an Italian-based hacker collective as a terrorist organization; commentator Brian Krassenstein publicly solicited donations to it, leading to calls for his arrest to set a legal precedent. Separately, Texas Roadhouse faced fabricated viral claims of racist food tampering, which the company robustly denied, contrasting with Good Good brand's weak apology to cancel culture pressure. The discussion also touches on immigration as a national security issue, the growing influence of the Democratic Socialists of America within the Democratic Party, and the fragmented political landscape, with participants debating America's historical military restraint versus its frequent conflicts.
Overall, the transcript reflects anxieties about nuclear war, domestic conscription, terrorism financing, and cultural battles.
