rand, mocking wounded Lord Bet for losing his eye fighting for our freedom.
Have you ever heard someone mention the Strysand effect and wondered what they were talking
about?
This phenomena is named after actress Barbara Strysand.
Sometimes when you try to cover something up, you end up bringing more attention to
it than if you had just let things be.
The Assemblyman will not denounce Hassan Piker, who said America deserved 9-11, dude.
The Assemblyman just said in his response, Hassan Piker says America deserved 9-11.
There you go! There you have it!
My friends, we have toppled a political dynasty!
Now to the Michigan Senate race, where El Sayed is campaigning in Michigan.
Appearing on stage at two Michigan campaign rallies.
He's co-actively campaigning alongside Piker.
The man who said Hezbollah's flag is his favorite, Hezbollah's goat.
Why would you align yourself for a raging anti-Semitism who has defended Hamas terrorists?
Calling them the lesser of two is Israel's compared to the government's evils.
The lesser of two, that's what I find a bridge too far.
When I went up to my good friend, Chad, and said,
hey, you walk me through some more controversial statements of Assan Piper,
Even chat GBT went out of its way to soften the edges of the song and give me context
Thanks, but no sex. Oh chat GBT the song piker is campaign poison placing yourself on the wrong side of a 90-10 issue
He's only gonna make you look bad. It's gonna be good for me
It's gonna be good for the candidates that I work with turns out it was true. I'll do al-sayed at
27%

You know, you know what it is folks hands suit alert

Some that triggers them to know
To no end. We're live. We're alive coming to you from stolen Tongva territory
Ladies and gentlemen, maybe not the greatest city on earth
But one of the greatest cities on earth Los Angeles, California. We're live. It is
is 63 degrees and mostly cloudy here in otherwise sunny Los Angeles, California, I'm wearing
a linen or not linen. Is it cotton? I don't know what this is, but this is like a, it's
like a summer jacket because it's official. Summer is here, right? It's official summer
is here. So we're swapping it out. We're switching it out. It's cotton. Is it linen? I don't know.
It's not seersucker. No
In any case folks, this is part of the bar cash rate tell you all about my personal news
But what's going on in the world of a son? I said I'm a piker. I'm over here looking like a I've got dang
Big city law. I'm wearing an outfit that says
Now excuse me if I do say so myself. I'm no big city lawyer
I
Say I'll say I'll say I only I only know one thing and one thing only my client is innocent
My client your honor is innocent
That's right
real fog horn leg horn hours
Okay
I do I do declare I
Do declare your honor?
But we're here, we're live, we're alive.
And yeah, there's going to be a big day.
There's a lot of news still as far as updates goes on the subpoena part.
The subpoena is your boy has yet to receive it.
So, you know, quick update on that front, get to receive a subpoena.
And also, of course, when I was gone, there was some tweaks that took place on the camera.
And of course, one of those tweaks is that it was adjusted not to my height.
So the top of my head sometimes is going to be off camera, and that's okay.
And we're going to fix that later.
Okay.
at least the lighting is back to what it used to be like, so that's good. But yeah, no interest in
talking about basketball. I think many of you know why. I didn't even watch it and I didn't even watch
to highlights. That's all I'm going to say. I don't like people who cheat. And I think
if you, in any way, shape or form defeat the San Antonio Spurs, you must be cheating.
They brought in their big guns, Tony Brothers. The script is in. SGA is a flopper. He's a
basketball terrorist it's fine you know it was already set they wanted it they
wanted to hit that they want to they want to the cool story they want like
oh game six will it go to game seven like it's like they don't want to just
like they don't want to play real basketball what happened to the game I
love what happened to the game I love
Okay, that's a good one.
The Oklahoma City Thunder.
Will what?
Craziest flop wasn't from SGA.
Okay, so you know they can just fall in the revs below the whistle.
That's crazy.
Find somebody that looks at the way the rest look at OKC Thunder.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
This is ruthless.
What happened to the game I love?
What happened to the game I love?
Good.
Yes.
Yes.
Money brothers, he wanted to visit, he wanted to most likely visit country, most likely
to visit.
He's Israel.
Okay.

And you know what his hidden talent is?
It's cooking.
Cooking what?
Cooking up a game.
Okay.
Cooking up the books.
That's what his hidden, that's what his hidden talent is, and it's not hidden at all.
It's actually pretty out in the open.
I'm not scared. I'm okay.
See you was in practice after
losing game four to the spurs.
You're good. Yeah, I'm good.
Okay. Okay. Well, I bought a
little supply swing just to

Yup, yup, yup.
Yup.

Yes, man!
Do we flop or do we hook?
Flop!
Don't dumbass out there!
Get back to that flop line!
Act like you're gonna suicide!
Next!
Yeah, go view flops.
This is how they train. It's real. This is the, that's a, I can't believe they actually,
they got insider access to the Oklahoma thunder training facility. That's crazy. I've never
seen an MVP get this much hate ever. What are you talking about? That's how it always
goes.
Um, anyway, they got the bill of check footage.
Yeah.
So folks, folks, this part of the broadcast where I tell you about my personal news, but honestly, shut ass loser style didn't really do much.
Um, um, didn't even take a bath last night and I've been doing bass to calm myself down, you know, but, uh, didn't even do that.
I didn't even do that last night
Just straight up
Went to bed woke up early. No, I showered I didn't take a bath I showered stinky. No, no
Basically
That's it. There's not really anything going on in my life. I I showered I went to bed
I woke up early. I had to, you know, get all my setup situated. No TSA story. I guess there's
one story and that was that they moved our gate. Literally as we were about to board,
which was crazy. I was like, that's, that's weird. That's never happened to me before.
So like the entire, the entire plane had to go from the gate to the new gate, which is
all on the other side of the airport. So we all moved to the new gate, right? But the
story doesn't end there. We all moved to the new gate, and then we start piling in. One
One of the, one of the, uh, girly pops at the front desk that was checking everybody
in was a fan.
She gave me a second slip, a second ticket.
I didn't even realize what was going on in the second ticket until I picked it up and
I looked at the back of it and she'd written a note.
She was like, oh, I'm a huge fan of all the stuff.
I was like, can I get a photo with you?
It's totally fine.
If you don't want to take a photo, I saw it too late while I was walking in.
But I told her, do you have your phone?
I hit her with the, if you have your phone,
while I'm checking in,
and there's like a huge line behind me.
Like, if you have your phone,
we could take a photo right now at the gate.
She's like, no, it's fine.
I'll come up to you when you're at your seat.
And I was like, sure.
I said, all right, let's do it.
You know how it is.
Okay.
Didn't want to hold up the line.
So,
we file in
And everyone's just waiting in line.
And it was strange.
It was strange.
Everyone was like, what the hell's going on?
Why are we still waiting?
Why are we not falling into the, like we're in that little thing.
We're in the gate.
We're in the bridge.
Turns out they hadn't catered yet.
So they took everybody out of the bridge and back outside.
And then there was another like 30 minutes that we waited. It was just a delay another delay
But yeah, I made it out alive slept like a baby on the plane so that was good
Don't know if anybody took creep shots of me while I was sleeping. Hopefully not
And
Yeah, I'm here. That's pretty much it had a couple big business deals, you know some some phone calls
press-related. Now you sent 400 tweets in 10 minutes like a damn loser. That's true. That's
true. I did do that. I was a whole ass loser. It's real. I'm a loser. It's real. Do you still fart
on planes? I do not. Not anymore. Fox News. Do not believe the lies that are coming from this
community. I do not do that. Bro, not even broke as Balkan countries do that. America is the fifth
world nation is true in any case we made it we're here and you know in relative
time I was a little delayed today when I began but that's all I got going on in
my life shut-ass loser's style we got some blast off memes will blast off right
now. Okay, playlist for later. Thank you to Macy's.
Fox News gonna hate your suit today. Yeah, I wore it for them, you know, I wore it for
For them, my biggest fans.
Okay.
Is this AI?
Oh, it is.
Shai proposes to Tony Brothers after Game 5 win.
That's so stupid.
I can't believe I said is this AI?
Anyway, back in LA folks, you already know, Kempax defeats Cornyn in Texas.
What does this mean for the future of MAGA?
What does this mean for the future of MAGA?
Iranian dealer, no deal, Delaney facility, New Jersey Delaney facility, ice protest,
Iced protest Epstein's fortnight fury epic fury day 89 Julie Gonzalez for Colorado Senate or for
Senate from Colorado. Later and get in now. Hasan Dividdome owner of the Hassanabi Dividdome.
Okay. Okay. All right, we're blasting out how many suits you have on so many, almost all of them are my dad's, which is great because he's here so much that he just leaves him behind and I just wear his shit.
This is his this is his jacket
Some of them don't fit it's weird cuz like some of his suits fit like this pretty tight
You know arms are relatively tight and some of them are too large
But almost all of them are his
Is this a goddamn a bunga stream now? Hell yeah, brother. Yeah, we're commemorating
We're honoring Barak
HOSAIN OBAMA.
That's right.
By wearing a got dang tan suit.
By wearing a gosh dang tan suit on this day.
RDC got an incredible schedule at OTC Thunder.
We just watched it.
You missed it.
We just watched it.
though. Twitter is just making shit up again. What is this?
Ashley St. Clair and a Sompiker reportedly had sex, followed dissident wire. I mean,
I think this is just a meme dude, I don't think this is like someone genuinely writing
this is like with the intent of misinforming people.
What the fuck is happening with this fucking camera dude, god damn it.
Fix yourself.
Fix your life camera.
But yeah, it's definitely just parody.
You see, no matter the oppo-platiners putting up numbers on Collins, yes, I do see that.
Anyway, what happened to the botting yesterday, I have no idea.
I have no idea what happened to the- dude, what the fuck is going on with this stupid
fucking camp dude?
What the fuck is going on?
Why is the autofocus so busted?
Oh my god, it's just like...
Hello?
Hello?
RRRRRR
Every game day there's another fucking thing going on.
So annoying.
Camera is focusing on the flag behind you, maybe move it?
Yeah, it's the Nix, maybe.
It could be better now, we'll see.
It's Bydom?
Yeah, that's why.
It's 8 Happy 8 by the way.
In any case, invest in an iron brother?
Dog, I'm literally, this is the type of suit that you wear for like one, you wear for like
three seconds and it instantly crumples.
Okay, I just sat down, this suit was fine, it was iron, it was just that, why am I having
this conversation?
Lynn is supposed to wrinkle, it's the look, yeah, it's linen.
It's just gonna wrinkle. There's nothing I can do about it.
Or what?
Dude, look at what autofocus is focusing on right now.
It's literally the fucking two heads behind me.
What the fuck is ha- bro, I'm gonna brick my shit.
I'm gonna fucking punch the goddamn camera.
Hopefully this will be better.
I don't understand how a camera can be so fucking stupid.
Anyway, alright, alright, alright, alright, let's continue.
It's fine, I think.
Is he okay?
Maybe we should let him play games today and give us a house.
How's that gonna be a break today?
Yeah.
Punching the camera is punching chat?
Yeah.
Alright, well.
fuck it I don't give a shit whatever it'll be fucking we'll do it live you
know fuck it we'll do it live it'll be off it'll be a little off the whole time
who cares your camera doesn't focus on shut-ass losers that's probably what it
is. You know what, you're right. In any case, yeah, PBS needs new doughnuts so I can get
new equipment. That's what it is. It's because you cover the face by moving around so it
fixates on the face. I know. All right. Um, make the f stop
higher. It'll give you more depth of field. Okay, we don't
need any. We don't need all this backseat producing right now.
But yeah, um, I think I slept a good deal, but perhaps not.
But, uh, we're here regardless and we got a lot going on and we're gonna get into it.
We're gonna get into all of it and more.
Somebody's cranky, yeah.
I just, I hate traveling and it's crazy because like, well one, I hate traveling but the thing
I hate more than traveling is when like my home stream setup that's supposed to be consistent
is bricked.
It's just like, it makes me unbelievably mad.
So that's what it is.
When I come back home and like,
normally I just keep everything intact.
And then it's just everything is bricked.
Like look, look at this, look at what's going on right now.
It's so fucking goddamn annoying.
It's the thing that I hate the most.
And it makes my autism go into overdrive.
makes my autism go fucking wild.
I hate these cameras so much.
I feel like, don't you sometimes feel
like the technology just hears you
and fucks with you on purpose?
I can't be alone in feeling this way, right?
Like the more I talk about how shitty this camera is,
the worse it gets.
The more I talk about how like this camera is fucking me,
The more the cameras like yeah, I am actually fuck you. I'm gonna be even more out of focus
I'm gonna be more out. It's like yeah your Wi-Fi. It does that shit too. I assume sometimes
When you're like, why is my Wi-Fi not working?
And your Wi-Fi hears you and decides to trip out even further
That's the that's the life that we live
It's gonna get worse with our AI overlords. I feel like our AI overlords are going to be fucking with us in the same exact way
I work in IT. I can confirm is true. Yeah
Anyone who works in IT knows what I'm talking about and obviously anyone who know it works in IT also knows
The best possible thing you can do
To fix anything is to turn it on and off
Unfortunately, I can't do that because I'm live and when I'm live broadcasting once I start I can't stop and
That's what it is. So kind of cooked. It's just gonna be this way
People haven't even been making a big deal out of it more people have been annoyed by my suit choice
My sartorial choices rather than the fact that the camera keeps going in and out of focus
But
Switch to phone, then back to camera. That's not how that goes. All right.
Outsource the problem that someone's smarter than you. No, this is the problem. I have done that. That's why. Okay. Sometimes stupid is better. Okay. Simple is better. Stupid is better.
Sometimes you do outsource the problem to someone smarter than you. And when, when you do that, they, they always tweak things because they always know better than you do.
Okay, they always are like no no no you don't understand. This is my life
This is what I've done my whole life. So I it's not March
Like this is this is obviously a much better way to do things like fuck manual focus. Let's do autofocus. Obviously, it'll work
Backpack stream for the fun of it. Maybe we can go on a walk with kaya. Okay
All right, we're done. We're done here. We're I'm starting to time people out making
Incredibly stupid suggestions. Okay. Yeah, let me fucking dox my life further after
Fox News already planted the paparazzi ass on my fucking house
Backseating is over
Trump is threatening to blow up Oman. Oh my god
Let's start there Trump is back
he's going crazy you know what hold on I'm gonna do a BRB screen real quick and
fix this fucking thing because if I don't I will fucking I will lose my goddamn
mind okay so BRB
you
you
you
you
Hopefully. Okay, we're back. We're back. Camera's supposed to be fixed. We'll see.
Oh, okay. Your sports coat looks very spiffy. I'm sure the grandma's watching you. We'll
think you're a very fine young man. Okay, we're back and we're good. We're freaking
good. Okay. My mom called me the R word. That's strange. You're told to be getting this mad.
Your heart can't take it. It's true. This is why New York is better. Yes, it's also true.
Fix your suit. Shut the fuck up. Suits fine. All right. Yeah, it's Obama tansu time. All right.
So where were we? Oh, that's right. We were talking about Donald Trump, the president of the United
States of America. Donald Trump is back. You know, the long three-day long weekend is over,
and Donald Trump is back and better than ever, he's got a lot on his mind. And I guess one of
the things that he has on his mind is specifically death and destruction. That's what is on his
on all the time and he's here to tell you all about it. Let's take a look.
Would you accept a short-term deal that allows Iran and Oman to control the strait and would
they have to open it immediately or would you be open to that happening over a period
of time?
This trade is going to be open to everybody. So international waters. Nobody's going to
control it. We're going to watch over it. We'll watch over it, but nobody's going to
control of this part of the negotiation that we have. They would like to control. Nobody's
going to control. It's international waters and Oman will behave just like everybody else.
They will have to blow them up. They understand that they'll be fine.
Do you accept an agreement with Iran that just costs them further time?
Incredible. Incredible. Fuck it. Fuck it. We ball. Okay. I love that. I love that Donald
Trump was like, you know what? Out of all of the countries in the region, in the golf
region, let's put the crosshairs on the one country that is known for being chillers that
is like actively trying to be, that's actively trying to be the Switzerland in the region.
You know, yeah, if all of, out of all the golf states, fuck it, we'll blow up Oman. I
don't even understand what this man is saying and doing anymore. And quite frankly, I don't
think he knows either. I don't know if this was like a instance where he was actually talking
about Iran and accidentally said Oman, or if he means like, you know, Oman presents a threat to
the deal because they're like too neutral on the Israel stuff. I don't know if that's the case or not.
But very cool stuff obviously this is why I said I won't believe the ceasefire is happening until
you know the ships are pulling out and the ink has dried on the paper and this is part of the
reason why I said that because I understand that there is no ceasefire if Israel doesn't want there
to be a ceasefire, right? And Israel certainly doesn't want a ceasefire. We've shown
Eitemar Bankivir talk about how this is a bad deal for us, so it won't happen. We've
talked about how Benjamin Netanyahu has been chirping at America, making this ceasefire
deal less likely to take place. So he's all over the place. He's all over the place with
his inconsistent deal making. And it's really interesting because he's the one who also
claims that Iran is in a state of panic, where the Iranian side, the Iranian negotiators
are at odds, the reformers are at odds with the IRGC hardliners. And that seems not to
be the case.
This is yet another instance, I think, of Trumpian projection, where the more chaos
exists on the Trump side on the deal, the more chaos exists between Trump and Benjamin
and Yahoo, the more he claims the Iranian negotiators are in a state of panic.
Once again, I always find myself asking the question that Bill Clinton also rhetorically
asked Benjamin Netanyahu, I believe, all the way back in the early 90s, who's the fucking
superpower here? Right? That's the question I have. Who is the superpower here? Is it
Israel or is it the United States of America? Now, of course, it's the answer is simple.
It is the United States of America. It's not Israel that is a superpower. However, America's
not acting like it.
So yeah, let's continue.
I would for some of it, you know, because it's a memorandum of understanding for speed.
And one of the things that will happen is the straight will open immediately.
Immediately.
But it's got to be perfect.
I didn't do this to get the crummy agreement.
The worst agreement ever signed was by Barack Hussein Obama.
What a horrible agreement that was.
is a setback for this country.
I can't help but notice that Trump loves doing this thing, where he brings up the actual
pivotal achievements of his prior of his predecessors that were unbelievably successful even on
their own and certainly infinitely more successful in comparison to what he's doing.
Because there's no way out of this bargaining process where Trump secures a better deal
than Barack Hussein Obama did, okay?
There isn't, because Iran has won things militarily.
At the time, America had maximum leverage when Barack Obama went to the table and secured
the JCPOA.
That time is long past.
Trump mentioned Oman because Bakrari announced that Iran and Oman are working on a framework
Oh, that's why. Okay. Yeah. So that's where we're at. I don't even understand why he makes a big deal out of, um,
like, I don't even understand why Donald Trump makes a big deal out of the toll thing because that's,
that's an inevitability.
Something fell behind me. I don't know what the fuck is going on, but it doesn't matter. Jesus Christ.
Ghosts. It's not ghosts. Okay.
Where was I? Oh yeah. The toll is in inevitability, which is precisely the reason why if I'm Trump,
I'm trying to deflect away from that. I'm trying to shift the attention away from the fact that there's a toll at all
at all as quickly as possible. I'm trying to move away from that and to hyper-focus on
the areas of concession that I could potentially extract out of the steel, the nuclear-grade
enriched uranium and shipping and handling that uranium and how wonderful that's going
to be.
Right? Seemdeck is now unbiable. Wait, why? We Europeans, being in a cooker with no AC
I'm cooking in a fucking heatwave in Europe chef
Steam Deck is now unbiable now. What why oh is it because of the?
Is it because of the straight of Hormuz is that where all those steam decks are coming from?
Yes, it's the thing dangling above the game cube. Yes, you you got it
So I
Think he perceives the tolls as a strategic failure optically because it shows in the situation of Hormuz is materially worse for everyone than pre-war
No, it doesn't have to be.
It's only materially worse because Trump is refusing to concede.
And the rest of the world knows that the only spoiler in this process, the rest of the world,
if left to their own devices, would absolutely commit to a framework where Iran, they pay
a toll to Iran. And Iran takes that as like reparations. And Iran takes it as like restitution
for all the assets that are frozen, right? Slowly but surely. And there's definitely a way to make
that work. I believe the Iranian government has said, oh, this is not a toll. It's for environmental
protection, right? If you want to like greenwash what this is, it's obviously a toll. But like,
like they're calling it an environmental protection fee, right?
So like, they obviously understand the domestic considerations here and they're trying to create
a framework that works for everybody, that looks good for everybody, except Donald Trump
either doesn't want to take the L on this or he's ready to commit to taking the L on
this, but Israel doesn't want Donald Trump to take any concessions whatsoever because
Israel wants the war to continue. That's it.
I'm not kidding when I say this. This sounds a little crazy and I know Iran probably would
never be on board with this, but just to explain to you what could work if they just offered
like, like a, like a 1% kickback to America, just to make America feel like, just to make
Trump feel like he has, he's gotten something out of this. I can see Donald Trump saying,
all right, we're down with this. This is a good deal. Like, Iraq could just be like, listen,
we collect a toll for environmental protection fee. We split it between Oman and Iran,
obviously, because this is Omani territorial waters and it's Iranian territorial waters.
And in exchange for that, as America being like the hegemon that is responsible for keeping all
matter of transit in the seas open, we will give you 1% of the toll. And you can put it in your
Liberty financial scheme or your cryptocurrency or whatever, just you could pocket it, right?
Like you can just take the bribe. Please, let the rest of the world go back to regular commerce.
And I think Trump would be like, all right, that's fine.
Sweeten the fucking deal, throw a goddamn Trump Tower in there, okay?
Trump Tower Tehran.
I swear to God, I swear to God, Donald Trump would be like, all right, let's do it.
Because I know that all of the foreign adversaries, the foreign adversaries that go into the deal-making
process with Donald Trump will float the idea of a Trump Tower.
Tower Havana in Cuba, Trump Tower Caracas, right? And Trump Tower Tehran. They all understand
how the mafia boss operates. They know it's quid pro quo. Everybody understands it. It's
unbelievably corrupt. And seemingly, seemingly, nobody cares, okay? No one cares. Like literally,
no one in America cares. None of the Trump supporters care, or they're at least like
completely oblivious to it. And honestly, Trump is definitely taking advantage of the
lack of legal protections or seemingly the lack of interest surrounding holding this
administration accountable. Now obviously, one of the reasons why it's virtually impossible
to hold this administration accountable is not because there's a tremendous power consolidation
uh... around the leadership in the maga movement the republican movement but
also because the democrats don't have any motion they don't control
congress
i would say that uh... one of the things that i have noticed that i find to be
particularly frustrating is that it almost feels like the media
is also on board with this
but there's very little i mean there's coverage on it right
obviously i'm not gonna say that there's no coverage on it there's certainly
coverage on the corruption stuff it's
huge
But never to the same degree of smoke that even took place in 2016, the first Trump administration.
The first Trump tenure, he would do stuff like this.
Never to this degree, okay?
Never to this degree.
I cannot explain to you how much he has leveled up his graft.
And understandably, a lot of people were like, this is an aberration.
This is ridiculous.
This is not how we operate.
You're supposed to create like shell corporations and work through subsidiaries if you want to
do corruption.
Look at the fucking Clinton Foundation.
What are you doing?
And this time around, Trump is just like, I'm corrupt.
I love doing corruption.
It's an order of magnitude similar to the coverage on you, Law.
Yeah.
Yeah, there's more coverage on a fucking Twitch streamer than there is on like Trump's
unbelievable corrupt machine that is this parasitic force sitting on top of this government
and just sucking up whatever kind of value they can potentially suck up, like a God
name Hoover vacuum, and just facilitating Trump's personal wealth.
It's something that I'm personally very familiar with in Turkey, okay?
one was scoping out the joint. Yeah. He was just, he was just casing. He was just looking
at the white house going, all right, we're going to put gold. We're going to put gold
from Home Depot everywhere, but he was also casing the joint. He was literally looking
around. He's like, I got a fence. I can, I can ship some of this stuff, but it is pretty
crazy. Now, yeah, new hat on display. By the way, Trump to 50 hats, make America great
again, uh, he, uh, he gifted everyone this morning that was at this conference, uh, a,
uh, 250th year anniversary hat and also a commemorative coin.
Isn't that wonderful?
God, this country is fucking country, man.
It is.
Yeah, it's, I mean, it's, it's incredibly gaudy.
You're right.
It is incredibly fucking gaudy.
And you need that hat to fly international. True. I do. I do need it. I need to have bad
automatic entry into the country. If they see me wearing that, they'll be like,
Oh, this guy's obviously a real fucking patriot. Wait a minute. It says here that you're a terrorist.
Well, you're probably the good kind of terrorist, huh? Yeah. Yeah. And not the, the, the previous
his Lib Tardid administration probably put you on the no fly list. Yeah.
Step right ahead, sir. You seem like you're a January six veteran.
Immediately joined the NC Woodcoff is working on that with Jared and some others, but would
like to have them join the Abraham Accords. It'll be historic if they do it. And we would,
I think they, I think they owe that to us to be honest. I think, cause that really would
be a tremendous sign. And I think those countries owe it to us.
We're definitely pushing it, Mr. President, I'm not sure we should make the deal if they
don't sign.
You want to know the deal?
If they don't sign to join the Abrahamic courts, I don't know that we, you know, we
have countries and they're already UAE, great countries, bold countries, and it's turned
out to be so good, so effective.
And so we're, buddy, UAE is our dog, okay, as a country.
No disrespect to people who are stuck living in the United Arab Emirates, but the leadership
is completely servile to American interests.
Not only are they completely servile, but they've literally bought in.
They bribed the Trump administration early on, which is ironically one of the things
that I was talking about when I said this is an unbelievably corrupt administration.
The United Arab Emirates, the Saudis as well, and even Qatar, which had not done so last
time, they all got together and pumped Trump coin and his own investment opportunities
fairly aggressively with the hopes that Trump would protect them.
Now, of course, Trump hasn't really protected them at all yet, but now that they have bribed
him so much, it's a sunk cost, right?
They're bought in, they can't really do anything else.
Yeah, Qatar gave a plane, but that's like nothing in comparison.
Qatar gave a plane, which once again is nothing in comparison to like the amount of investment
we're talking about, like direct investment we're talking about from the United Arab
Emirates.
you know, requesting strongly that they join. It'll be great. It'd be great for Saudi
Arabia. It'd be great for Qatar, Kuwait, the whole group.
So the Iran deal might be contingent on more countries joining.
I don't want to say that. I'm not going to give you, you know, and dumb fuck, maggot
supporters will still be like, well, Trump, excuse me, I'll have you know, Trump, my big
beautiful president, he doesn't take a salary. And it's like, yeah, dude, all right, so what?
Trump's net worth is nearly tripled in his second term reaching 6.5 billion.
It's incredible. And then look, look, look, cat turd, cry more. Buddy, your net worth
didn't triple. Trump's net worth tripled, okay? He's corrupt. He's doing corruption. You're
so fucking stupid. What is your buy-in? This doesn't make any sense. Why are you excited?
Why are you stoked for Trump tripling his net worth with unearned power that he has,
with the exploitation of his office, the presidency? I understand many Republicans
don't think, period. And some of them that do think, think that the establishment is corrupt
anyway, right? So fuck it, destroy it. Fine. But that destruction is supposed to, I don't know,
have some downstream consequences for you that are positive.
Donald Trump's corruption is only enriching himself. So why are you celebrating it? This
This doesn't make any sense. It's like, oh, my team is winning. It's like, little bro,
you're not a part of the team. Where is the buy-in? Where is the return on your investment?
None of this makes sense, but it's unfortunately a reality that we have to deal with because,
as I keep repeatedly mentioning, MAGA is a cult. It is a cult and not a particularly
intelligent cult, not a particularly sophisticated cult, just a cult nonetheless, but a very
stupid one. So, unfortunately, this is one of the problems with this design, where people
are so invested in Trump being as corrupt as possible that they humiliate themselves.
Okay.
Huh.
They just released a new New York Penn Station renders and it looks like they modified it
to appeal to him golden the interior and his name etched into the concrete.
Wait what?
Exclusive renderings of Penn Stations overhauled to show Trump's name with presidential seal.
Wait, what?
The winning plan to rebuild Penn Station features renderings of a new train hall with
American flights of the entrance, gold accented railings, and columns and escalators.
Okay, I don't mind this.
It's not as gaudy, but like the fact that it has Trump's name etched into it is disgusting.
Okay, the moment he's out, we gotta rip those apart.
You didn't know about this?
just take it out once he's out. Yeah, we got to rip those. We got to chip away at that.
Like, yeah, you know how, you know, and like the, the period of denazification, they took
out all of the, they etched out all of like the, the, you know, Nazi insignia that was
on the side of the buildings and shit. Like that's what we got to do. The everything that
is Trump related. Get Zoran on the phone right now. Okay. First of all, Zoran would probably
Zoran probably suggested it. Okay. He was like, Mr. President, if you, if you allow some federal
funding to come to New York so we can build some fucking housing, like you can name whatever you
want to name, you know, you're my goat. Yeah. Also speaking of Zoran, he's been making a lot of
interesting choices. Okay, before we get back to Trump, let's talk about Zoran, okay?
I'm sorry, this is the most insane thing I've ever seen, okay? Zoran is doing a aid Al-Adha
celebration.
I, I don't know what to say about this. This is in fucking sanity. Okay, he's full dripped
in gooner, gooner merch. Okay, he's fully dripped in gooner merch.
He's the mayor of New York. What the fuck kind of power do you think he has? Of course he can't do anything about that. Anyway, you wish you could pull that off? I don't know if I could ever pull that off. I don't even know if I want to pull that off.
I saw this as well, but this is AI I think, but it's still awesome. You wearing the wrong fit New York City mayor.
Arsenal Dish Dasha, you can get a LeBron Thobe, it's fucking awesome, up the Arsenal lads,
alright fucking dooners dial it back, it's not a Thobe, I don't know what it's called,
That's one of those things, but Masha Allah to AOC, by the way, LeBron Fez ordered for
you.
Join Zora and us and be an Arsenal fan.
That's hard.
I have to represent the real working class team.
appeal as a scouse a lot is that fucked up no that that's words the fuck is wrong
with her why she larping by wearing a headscarf what are you talking about
dude it's fucking she's being courteous like why are you so fucking triggered
Jesus Christ calm down be a Barca fan man you is worse
You have a fez lineup merch Matthew is a Liverpool fan bro, so you're in good company
Dude hey, oh, you can't do anything right okay
Everything she does is someone's got to get mad at anything and everything she does I swear to God
My man said, LARPing. I don't know if they go to the mosque at some point or I don't know. Maybe
it's because it's a prayer event. Normally you're supposed to cover your head when you're in a mosque.
But yeah, woke 1.0 cultural appropriation grievances is so back. No, that guy wasn't even doing a
cultural appropriation grievance. That guy was just like mad that she's wearing a headscarf.
Anyway, alright, let's get back to Trump.
Support journalism you trust.
Support the Parker broadcasting service.
Anyway, cabinet meeting in the White House continues.
very much to make a deal.
So far, they haven't gotten there.
We're not satisfied with it.
But we will be.
We will be either that or we'll have to just finish the job.
But the Navy is gone, as I've said a thousand times.
The Navy is gone.
The Air Force is gone.
Everything's gone.
And they're negotiating on fumes.
But we'll see what happens.
Maybe we have to go back and finish it.
Maybe we don't.
Right now, I mean, you can speak to Steve Whitcoff and Jared.
doing a good job. But right now I think it looks like they
want to just make a deal. They want to they have I don't think
they have a choice. They're just going back to the internet
because they're getting clobbered their economy is in
freefall. They have 250% inflation. The money has no
value. And their whole economic system is broken down. They
thought they're gonna outweigh me, you know, we'll outweigh
him. He's got the midterms. I don't care about the midterms.
look what happened last night. That was the prelude to the midterms. And people understand
that they know that very simple Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. I'm doing that for
the world. I'm not going to adjust for this. And we've had great support from other nations,
by the way. We don't need it at all. But we've had great support from other nations. The
problem is you always get the support when you don't need it. When you need it, you don't
get the support without.
Okay, but you don't need it. So who cares? Right? Because it kind of feels like you do
And it also kind of feels like you're not getting the support that you want
Maybe that you need I
Don't even care. I don't even want it. I hate the support. I've been telling people don't support me
I got this on my own. Have you seen how hard we've destroyed the Iranian Navy?
Do you see the New York Times breakdown of how
How hard and how often Trump is praised and flooded in these cabinet meetings.
Trump is the only person who can save America according to his cabinet.
I mean, yeah, this is just, I think we all know, did you see this poll about you?
Yes, I did.
I think we all know these people know how to manage Trump.
That's why they're in the position of power that they're in, right?
That's why they're occupying a space of influence in the administration because what is this?
You can get any stronger?
Okay, chili, chili, chili, chili.
Where is it?
Where's the fucking poll?
tweeted about it, but I guess not. I tweeted so much. Um, this is what the, uh, oh yeah,
dude, this is, I mean, this is perfect. Okay. I'm sorry. I'm not one for symbolism, but if
you don't see the symbolism here, I mean, it's, it's pretty blunt. It's hitting you right in the
fucking face. You got the UFC Superdome that they're building right in front of the front
lawn of the White House, okay? And then you got the ballroom that's also being built in the process
of being built. I mean, this is perfect. This is what America is. This is literally what America
is all about. What are we complaining about? What's the expectation? Did you expect something different?
Normally, I feel like leadership, normally I feel like leadership, they are supposed to
do stuff like this at a moment when they have at least like a little bit more excitement,
like in the early stages of like fascism, when there's a lot of victories that you can point
too, right? Like, oh, we have a command over the economy. And there's like a, like usually
there's a boost, right? There's like almost an immediate improvement in people's like economic
situations before everything falls apart. That's usually when you build the shit like this.
You don't build shit like this when everybody hates you. When everybody hates you and you
build shit like this, they hate you more. And the problem for Trump is he's leaned into more of his
fascistic tendencies in the second term, when he has far less motion and he blew it too.
Like he got in, he thought he had a mandate when he clearly did. And it was a marginal
victory over a historically unpopular candidacy with a bunch of chaotic things that unfolded
in real time. Super old president. Everyone's hiding how old he is somehow until it's seen
and broad daylight that it's impossible to hide. It's very frustrating for people.
Negative real wage growth experience for a year and a half. People are not going to forget
that. They're going to continue punishing that. And then you have your unpopular VP substitute,
the unpopular and very old president that is committed to continuing a genocide. Of course,
Donald Trump won under those conditions and barely, right? But he came in and he thought he had a
a fuck a mandate with this marginal victory that he got. He thought he had a goddamn mandate,
and they started operating like he had a mandate. And what did he do with that mandate mentality?
He blew it immediately. He was like, we're doing mass deportations and we're doing tariffs.
We are going to literally do the reverse to the economy that we said we were going to do.
We came in, we're going to fix the economy, and we're going to make things cheaper.
That was the major, you know, bargain. That was the major argument. And instantly,
instantly, we pulled the reversal, right? They came in, they hit austerity with Doge
with an incredibly unpopular figurehead, one of the most autistic people on the planet,
coming in and just saying like, uh, uh, I'm a rich guy who never really works. And all I do is tweet.
and I'm going to fire tens of thousands of federal workers as we dismantle the institutions piece by
piece, things that are supposed to work that are pertinent to everyday existence in the United States,
like mapping out weather patterns or making sure that the meat that you're purchasing at the store
is not poisonous. These are things that are supposed to work all the time invisibly in the
the background and you only recognize what these institutions do when they fall apart.
He did all of that and then tariffs, the liberation day, planes falling out of the sky, Omen
after Omen. And now at the, at the peak of his unpopularity, he's like, yeah, I'm going
to hollow out the goddamn, you know, side lawn of the White House to build my own personal
vanity project, then on top of that, I'm going to do, you know, I'm going to do the UFC Superdome.
Now, personally, I don't even care about the UFC Superdome. I don't even care about the ballroom
either who gives a shit. I just don't want him to have it because he really wants it. That's it.
And I don't think he deserves to have something that he likes because only if you're a good boy,
you get to have treats. Okay. You don't, you don't get to build treats for yourself when
when you're a petulet spoiled child. That's like breaking everything. Okay. That's my main
resentment towards the ballroom. I've never, I've never really given a shit necessarily.
I do think that Democrats should absolutely lean into the imagery here though. The idea
that like there's no money for healthcare, but only money for bombs, only money for Israel.
And also Trump's fucking personal vanity project, get out of here.
I hate to admit this, but Trump was right. I saw this.
He said that if I vote for Kamala Harris, gas prices, grocery prices,
and my utility bills will go through the roof.
I voted for Harris and my gas prices, my grocery prices,
and utility bills have gone through the roof. True. It did happen.
It's great.
That's, that's just American democracy. You know,
either side you vote on things that are not going to change.
Things are not going to change. Okay.
China turns sneaky eating in the, in class into a real competition.
Why are you sending me this shit?
Looking at things that are happening in China kind of give me the same exact
vibes of looking at things that are happening in New York city, where like
the rest of the world is falling apart, but they're doing all right in comparison.
You know what I mean?
Like everything in America sucks right now.
And then you look at, uh, New York and, and they're having so much fucking fun.
And you feel it when you're there too, when you're there, when you're in New York,
you're like, Oh God, damn it. This shit looks awesome. Why can't we have some of this?
Right. And the same, I get the same feeling when I look at China, China's like, Oh,
we're just having fun over here. Things are fantastic. Things are incredible here.
How, how are you guys doing? Oh, well, we have a ballroom, I think that's cool.
What do we have to look forward to in American democracy?
Nothing.
Operation Epicure are words are ensuring that the world's number one state sponsor of terror
never obtains a nuclear weapon and they won't.
Not a damn thing we got.
Not a damn thing.
Nothing is positive.
No positive trajectory for American empire.
How much economic pressure do you feel to get the straight-up hormones open?
Well, after the United States has so much oil that we are an exportable.
So we have plenty of oil.
We're very lucky.
We're blessed with the greatest piece of land in the world from that same point.
And we have-
Dog, when you're the president of America, you're the leader of the free world, okay?
Now, obviously, I don't believe that messaging at all, but there are responsibilities that
come along with being the president of the United States of America sitting on that throne,
Okay. Your responsibility isn't just to the American people who are also suffering an unprecedented crisis right now, because obviously, regardless of America's exporting capabilities of oil and gas, oil is a commodity that is necessary for survival.
There's inelastic demand and it's traded, they trade it globally, right?
So, it's still going to increase prices here in the United States of America, unless we
just decide to not sell to the rest of the world, which is not going to happen for two
reasons.
One, the oil and gas industry are going to tell you to fuck off, right?
Because this is beneficial for them, and they care about profit more than anything else.
And two, even if they were to stop selling oil to the rest of the world and only sold
to the United States of America, that would be an unbelievable catastrophe for the rest
of the world that also is now relying on American oil and gas anyway.
So that would cause complete economic collapse elsewhere.
So you can't even do that regardless.
So yeah.
It's a damned if you do damned if you don't style situation.
Look at Patagonia getting sued by Patagonia.
Look at her instant.
What is that?
What I don't even know what this is.
What is happening here?
Why are you sending this to me ghost princess?
Do you think this is an important piece of news that we need to cover right now?
What are you talking about?
More than anybody else.
And now when you advantage well to it, we have I think 64% of the world's oil.
And we're getting along very well with the drag queen, by the way, it's run really beautifully.
big companies are moving in. It's going to be amazing because it's also, like us, they're
very blessed in that sense. But we have natural energy that no other country has. We have
more than anybody else. So it's really a world problem because most people are saying that
the ballroom is not about building a ballroom. From what I understand, it's apparently to
skirt presidential bookkeeping and surveillance regulation by building a data center under
Have you heard anything about that? Yes, I have. I don't know the the veracity of such claims. I feel like it's just speculative
Doesn't have that and we're making it available during the closing
I don't know if you've seen some of the satellite pictures boats hundreds of boats lined up
It looks like he's incredibly basic partner with Patagonia, but they're being super evil. Okay guys. We'll look at that later
Okay, please what the fuck man, please lock in
Please, I beg you, can we lock in?
Can we lock in right now?
We're talking about the most important issue of all time, okay?
The president's ballroom.
And also on top of that, Trump's claims about how he fucking ceasefire is imminent when it's
not.
I used to say the long I will look, I will look at Patagonia's situation later, please.
They lined up and they're coming to Texas, Louisiana, they're coming to Alastair to show up, they vote, they have big votes, some of them are really big, you know, two billion gallons, even bigger than that now they make them, they make them up to four, Chris, I hear, now they make them up to four, the four are now the big ones, used to be the ones, now it's four million barrels of, think of that, four million barrels of oil and what about, but they lined up and they're
barrels. Right now I think it's access and they've already filled up and they've
gone back. In addition to that you have a lot of boats, about 14-1500 boats in the
strait wanting to get out and at the right time we'll release them. But the
American people are seeing higher gas prices. That's come down a little bit but
still four dollars and 45 cents. It'll come down a lot. It'll come down to
where it was before. We had it when I was in Iowa we had driving by and we saw
gas stations, $1.90 a gallon, $1.85, $1.87 with a three that we saw. We had it down
in some places. Are you going to cover the bricks and minifigs controversy too? Charlie
just released two videos in a single day about apparently a chain store stole $200,000 in
Legos from a dying man. Below, now we can't help but California where they judge so much
tax that you know you lower it in the charge tax they've got a straight in the
act out in California but we had all we had a gasoline down to a very low number
I think we'll be hitting that number shortly after that whole excursion ends
I'm not covering anything that you guys want me to cover in the chat stop
asking me to cover stuff I'm gonna fucking lose my mind oh my god I haven't
actually been able to do like straight-up normal news coverage in commentary for
like the past couple of days, I've been away from home, please, please, you need to stop
with this. Please, I beg you.
If anything, regardless of anything, as Marco said, better than anybody can say, you can't
let them have a nuclear weapon. They would use it instantly. They wouldn't think about
it. They would use it instantly. I've gotten to know them. They would use it instantly.
Does that give you more urgency, Mr. President? You've said that you're a no-grouch to make
a deal, but with gas prices that are still high across the country, people are paying
more for travel. Does that give you more urgency to make a deal? Why definitely?
Well I'll tell you the primary urgency and I said this it wasn't covered properly
but the primary urgency is that we can't let Iran have a nuclear weapon but at
the same time we have a tremendous amount of oil, gas, coal, we have tremendous
amounts of energy. We're blessed with something very special. Those prices are
going to come down, they're going to come down fast. I think I think that you'll see
actually Todd I think you're going to see a lot of prices that we had even
before we did this. Now, I knew there'd be an increase. I said, we have a choice. We
don't have to do anything. Yeah, you knew there'd be an increase. You knew there would
be an increase. And yet, you still did it. And not only that, but also everybody hates
it. And they're increasingly hating it more and more every day that goes on, every day
where they have to pay more for gas, and it doesn't seem like you're stopping.
What will it take? Like, I knew that American foreign policy is never responsive to the
democratic needs of the majority, right? I've talked about this quite a bit, but this is shocking.
Like, this is, because like, I know Americans don't care about death and destruction
elsewhere or the instability they cause elsewhere. Because like right now, one of the major things
that we're doing is we're fucking up the rest of the world. There's an energy crisis elsewhere.
We're only seeing like a minor impact. Everyone is tapping into their strategic reserves right now.
There's diminished economic output in general, and it's ongoing. And there's a more restrained
version of
Productivity in the rest of the world and and its impacts are going to obviously be felt by America as well
but to a much more limited degree
And
Donald Trump is seemingly
Not very interested in that at all which is fine, but
But Americans, Americans are feeling the pain a little bit.
And I genuinely did assume, I genuinely did think that this very clearly like Israel-backed
war that Trump engaged in that caused so much instability and created this gas-priced chaos
on u.s. soil would at least cost some people to think twice about
leaning into the magikult and i guess what i was i was a little wrong on that
front
okay
they're still
seemingly on board with everything that he's doing is a motherfucking cult
and two years or one year or two months to get a p iran would have had a
if we didn't get that would be two bombers
iran would have had a nuclear weapon within two weeks from that date because
they were ready to go
and they had a new weapon a nuclear weapon it would have been used already
It also would have been used had I not terminated the Obama deal, the Iran nuclear deal, as we call it.
That was in my first term. Had I not terminated that they would have had a nuclear weapon a long time ago,
I would say it was a guarantee that it would have been used.
And it would have blown up Israel, it would have blown up the entire Middle East, and that's never going to happen.
Iran released new footage overnight of what it claims are its air defenses firing at American
drones and a fighter jet in an incident that nearly broke the fragile ceasefire with Washington.
It is impossible to independently verify what this state media footage shows or when it
was from.
Iran's president described it as a military victory for Iran, while the U.S. said it responded
with strikes.
The escalation coming as delicate negotiations on the war are ongoing.
Trump administration officials say a framework deal could be reached, perhaps this week.
A U.S. official tells NBC News the framework would see the ceasefire extended for 60 days,
open the Strait of Hormuz, and initiate talks on Iran's nuclear program.
But nothing seems set in stone, Vice President J. D. Vance telling NBC News in a new interview
that he is, quote, extremely hopeful that a deal would include Iran's agreement not
to develop a nuclear weapon but says a more difficult question is having the confidence
that Iran won't violate the deal in the future. The deal is also facing last-minute resistance
from members of the Israeli government who worry it won't limit Iran's missile program
or its support for militias in the Middle East. Yeah, I mean,
the missile program is already out of the question and everybody knows that it's already
out of the question. But I will say this, was really funny about the media being like, well,
there's a real cause for concern here that this won't actually diminish Iran's support for the
militias in the region. Yeah, it's one of the conditions. One of the conditions, the top condition,
as a matter of fact, is to get America to restrain Israel against Lebanon and against Hezbollah.
So, yeah, no shit, it's not gonna cause Iran to restrain its support for Hezbollah or anything like that, it's a part of the fuckin' deal.
Iranian official this morning said the agreement would also stop the war in Lebanon. Prime
Minister Netanyahu says he plans to intensify Israel's military campaign against Hezbollah
in Lebanon, where a U.S.-backed ceasefire is not being respected by either side.
And fighting in Lebanon is already intensifying with the Lebanese Ministry of Health just
today saying that at least 31 people have been killed by recent Israeli strikes.
Correct?
Our chief foreign correspondent Richard Engelforst there in Jerusalem.
Richard, thank you.
Hey, thanks for watching.
And don't forget you can catch the Today Show every morning on NBC or take Today when
you're on the go.

It has never resembled a ceasefire, but day by day that term losing ever more meaning.
The city of Tyre in southern Lebanon this evening coming under intense attack, part of an expanded
Israeli offensive. Israel said it was striking Hezbollah command centers.
In its biggest forced evacuation warning of the ceasefire, the Israeli military saying
people living in the southern port of Tyre should leave, along with anyone living in
11 refugee camps nearby. Anyone south of the Zahrani River told they were now in an active
combat zone. The army's Arabic spokesman advising all residents of the south ahead north, mirroring
orders made at the height of the war in March. Israel's Prime Minister under pressure at home
to demonstrate he has an answer to this, has bollards increasing use of unjamable fiber-optic
drones. This one striking an iron dome interceptor launcher. For all the tropes of propaganda,
a truth here that Israel is seeking a new form of defense against a new threat.
The expanded attacks in Lebanon could also-
The FPV copies are out of control. I will say it.
They're completely out of control. I mean, they are,
are doing things that I did not think that they were capable of doing.
And I don't understand how after so many years of Russia invading Ukraine that none of these
other countries actually learned any of the techniques of like trying to engage in defensive
measures against drone warfare.
It just, FPV drones for Hezbollah, I speculate, came out of nowhere.
I mean, they, Hezbollah has always been very good at utilizing ATGMs, right?
That was their whole thing.
They were very good at, they were very good at, at ambush missions against Mercavas,
okay?
But they never actually deployed FPV drones until recently.
And I speculate that one of the reasons why the FPV drones started getting mass adoption
within the Hezbollah attack and defense structure is because Israel did the same thing that
America did to Iran, they basically killed every single older person that didn't understand
how any of this stuff worked.
Okay.
And now all of the younger commanders and all the younger militia members were like,
no, we should be using this shit.
This is crazy.
And it has been a wild journey watching them get better every single day.
Like the first FPV drone footage that came out, the first FPV drone compilation footage
came out like the guys were not very good.
FPV means first person view, by the way.
They were not very good.
It was shaky.
They were not very confident.
And then a couple of weeks into it, a couple of weeks into it, they just started doing
trick shots out of nowhere.
And I think mass adoption happened only because they just ended up killing all the older
people that were more restrained about using this new technology that they were not confident
in.
And no matter not the similar to what America did alongside Israel to the IRGC, they took
out the leadership of the Islamic Republic and the leadership structure within the IRGC
and the younger candidates that took their place were hardliners in IRGC and were way
less invested in negotiating with America or Israel for understandable reasons.
And I think the similar thing happened with Hezbollah as well.
Hezbollah's surprise success with FPV drones will reshape the war in Lebanon, but the question
everyone is wondering is how. To combat this drone threat, Smotrich, Israel's far-right
minister, proposed destroying 10 buildings in Beirut for every drone had the law launches
in Netanyahu promised to use overwhelming force. A super quick primer on FPV drones.
They are connected to its pilot by fiber optic cables. No technology exists now, let the
jammer detect them and these FPV drones are tiny so tiny in fact Israel's iron dome can't
detect or shoot them down. That's crazy look at this bro. Either and very significantly
Hezbollah is making these drones themselves in Lebanon making cutting off their foreign
armed supply way less of a blow and the result is this Hezbollah's FPV drones are destroying entire
It's really so easy to manufacture drones because all the electronics and parts required are really
cheap. You also do not need the previous technical knowledge and engineering skills that was required
to make missiles, etc. Yeah. Dude, that's why I said like, if you recall, remember when Canary
Mission was trying to get me a band because they were claiming that I was fucking, you know,
basically training people to do terrorism or whatever. When I said something, you know,
that everybody fucking understands, which is that like warfare, asymmetric warfare has changed
dramatically. It's rendered suicide bombing campaigns completely a relic of the past.
There's no reason to do anything like that when you can just like learn how to fucking build
drones and deploy drones. And it's clear that like, you know, that's what's going on. I'm,
I'm shocked that Hezbollah had not done this already yet. They rendered suicide bombings obsolete.
drone warfare is the the great equalizer in many respects for not only smaller countries not only
middle powers like Iran regional powers like Iran to be able to successfully combat superpowers like
the United States of America as we've seen with the success of the Shahad drones in the operation
Epstein Fury, but it's also very successful for even paramilitary groups going up against
a nuclear armed ethno-state like Israel.
It is incredibly precise, it's incredibly easy to make, and it's fairly easy to train
on as well.
For the first time, Hezbollah publishes footage of an FPV utilizing a thermal camera observant
strike occupation army.
Oh my God, they got thermal imagery.
It's crazy.
Now they're doing nighttime strikes.
I mean, this is, first of all, this is a tremendous opportunity for Ukraine.
Okay.
I know Zelensky has basically been begging everyone to pay attention to him and everyone's
like dude fuck off but like this is literally his bread and butter you know
this is straight up his fucking bread and butter this is what Ukraine did this
is how Ukraine was able to keep a defensive posture in spite of overwhelming
overwhelming military forces like just a meat grinder that's constantly pushing
into deeper and deeper into Ukrainian territory and the only way that they were
able to stop this was because of their their drone production but of course
Israel's gonna do Israel shit and their response as always is oh for every
FPV drone that you deploy on our batteries on our iron dome you know
defense systems we will blow up five buildings in Beirut we're just gonna
kill children Israel has only one speed which is murdering children okay
They are destroying really hard to replace equipment like D-9 bulldozers, Merkava tanks,
Iron Dome batteries, and the cameras strapped to these drones get his belong, propaganda
with images of soldiers' last moments, attacks where they surely incur lifelong injuries.
They are circulating in Israel and Israel's military sensors can't really stop it.
And this will make the war harder to sell in Israel if this goes on.
So how is Israel's military reacting to all of this?
Well, the military has already brought in over 20 football fields of netting to try and
ensnare these drones, but even this really low-tech solution is not much of a solution
at all.
We have two drone operators, one hits a netting and the other one goes through the hole.
Billions and billions of dollars have been spent by Russia, by Europe, by America, and
their top military bankers and their planners, you know, to try to stop these APD drones
and fundamentally, they have achieved nothing.
As an electrical engineer, I think they will soon find ways to deal with drone swarms to the AI and computer vision technology
Should make it easy to deal with swarm attacks as a mess though
I feel like that can open up new cyber security risks with automating the defenses. Yeah
But reddit came out with like a anti-drone system the Vietnamese military came out with an anti-drone system that is uh,
You know very old school though. I saw that the six AK-47s planted
that
Used to be a joke
That literally was like a thing that the, I think, Russian military or the Ukrainian
military had actually done, and I thought that was a meme at first.
Nope, turns out that's genuinely what they're trying to do.
Yeah, they just fucking put, they just tape a bunch of AKs and they use it as like anti-air
defense systems.
World War One technology pretty much.
Ukraine also has some fairly genius defensive systems as well with like their own they have
anti drone drones as well.
Like there's a drone with like a spoon on it that just flies up to Russian drones and
just smacks them.
I've seen shit like that.
just a lot of crazy things happening. And, and it's very funny that like America is oblivious
to all of it and, and has not caught up at all. This is something that they talked about.
This is something that like American defense manufacturers have talked about as well. Palmer
Lucky famously, uh, has, has, uh, talked extensively about American procurement being, uh, far behind
the rest of the world. And how this was going to be a problem, except the real problem is
Palmer Lucky's drone program was unbelievably costly and also very bad.
They got literally kicked out of Ukraine.
They tried to build drone systems in Ukraine and Ukraine was like, dude, this is expensive
and you suck.
So I don't know where we go from here.
But drone warfare has definitely leveled the playing field.
We have seen from the Russia-Ukraine war where FPV drones were first used on the battlefield.
Yeah, here's the Vietnamese anti-drone mount.
If you want to see it.
If you think I was joking, I'm not.
It's literally 6 AKs with a binocular.
And it's strapped onto a mount and it just opens fire.
bro reloading that bitch is going to be so annoying yeah
It looks like cutting-edge technology.
They also unveiled a lightning-fast drone boat armed with RPGs, zip-sum maneuvers like
a beast on water.
Yeah.
This is what people are up to, man.
But it is a real weakness for more powerful countries who have relied on costly procurement,
who obviously are much slower to improve their offensive capabilities, their defensive capabilities.
the stuff many of the defensive capabilities required, require fluidity, and they don't
have the combat experience that creates opportunity, or not even opportunity, but like makes it
necessary for you to manufacture some kind of defensive posture in real time.
And that's where we're at.
What a game changer they continue to do.
You see this all the time in Ukraine now, where an entire structure of highway has just nets all over.
So finally, what impact will this have on the war in Lebanon?
We may see Israel scale back its goals in Lebanon, achieve them at a much slower pace.
They may just increase their attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure in South Lebanon.
But what these...
I mean, that's precisely what they're going to do, by the way.
I mean, that's... they're already... they're already saying that they're going to do that.
like oh you you're gonna drone strike us well guess what we're gonna kill more
civilians oh every time you drone strike one of our military installations
that's illegally occupying your soil that's killing your civilians what we're
gonna do in exchange for that what we're gonna do in exchange for that is murder
more children great PV drones will surely do is make as you'll pay a steeper
cost in pursuing a buffer zone in Lebanon if you want to hear more about what's
happening in Lebanon check out my full intro yeah so this is the this shows
this is eight days ago almost three million views a show I've watched this
video it's pretty crazy it shows what the Ukrainians are doing yes dude they're
calling me piker Hasan on Fox News I know I know we'll get to it okay it
doesn't fucking matter it's just who cares she's insane she's an insane person
I know.
To be read as a signal, that Israel believes a U.S.-Iran agreement is imminent, a last
push before any possible constraints imposed by the White House.
As for that agreement, Iranian state media today reporting on what they called an unofficial
draft.
Iran would restore shipping through the Strait of Homoes within a month, but also manage it.
the u.s. would end its blockade and withdraw forces
almost immediately the white house calling that complete fabrication
the president insisting on his own terms
they want very much to make a deal so far they haven't gotten there that we're not satisfied with it but
that we will be
we will be either that or we'll have to just finish the job
they thought they were going to outweigh me you know we'll outweigh him he's got the midterms i don't care about the midterms
very simple
Yeah, people love hearing that.
People love hearing from their president.
People love when their president says, I don't care about democracy.
What are you fucking stupid?
Are you dumb?
Why would I ever care about the negative consequences that my war mongering is going to have?
It's awesome.
we're in cannot have to make it like i'm literally a jebstein a jebstein
jeffrey eppstein affiliate why do you think
why do you think i would care i don't even care about
might my fans getting mad at me for being a jeffrey eppstein affiliate you
think this matters at all it doesn't happen after the world of the one that
just
trump assured the world last June that he'd obliterated iranian nuclear sites
but 440 kilograms of highly enriched uranium remain.
It's also, again, it's also funny
because like the rest of the world's like begging him
to not do this.
The rest of the world's like, please, please stop.
We desperately need you to stop doing this.
This is really fucking bad for us, please.
Nope, I'm gonna do more of it and I'm doing it for you.
You don't know any better.
I'm doing it for you.
This week he downgraded his demand for its removal
to what he called its destruction, the kind of detail that was being negotiated before
the war.
On one hand, the President is eager to cut his losses and walk away from a conflict that
has, as noted, provided very little strategic success.
But on the other hand, there is a political reality there that prices are high, they're
going to continue to be for some time ahead.
And the President has to be able to demonstrate that something has been achieved.
So this is a case, I think, of throwing things against the wall and seeing if they stick.
Iranians have been reclimatizing to a functional internet a day after the cyber shutdown was
at last ended.
Business eased.
Overseas family links restored.
Some modernly welcoming Mossad and CIA spies back to the chat.
Others speculating the end of restrictions means an agreement is all but made.
Those for whom these talks will matter most at least now have the chance to watch them
unfold online.
When we begin with the voting in Texas last night, they could have a big impact on the
balance of power in the Senate.
With a huge boost from President Trump, the state's controversial Attorney General Ken
Paxton defeated incumbent Senator John Cornyn when they could boost Democrats come November.
J. O'Brien starts us off.
Good morning, Jay.
George, good morning to you.
This is a major Texas-sized win for President Trump, giving a last-minute endorsement to
Texas's embattled Attorney General Ken Paxton, but allowing him to wallet the state's longtime
Republican Senator John Cornyn beating him by around 30 points in that runoff last night,
a dramatic turn of events from the primary that you had in March.
Yeah.
I'll do all sides messaging has been on point this past week as well.
Problem is Trump's dumb and illegal war with Iran and congratulations on a $4 gas by any
normal person could tell you that that's still too damn high.
Tech Cruz just filled my tank in Texas.
This is 399 a gallon. Hey Gavin, problem is a Chevron is California's stupid energy policies.
Ted says, what was prior, what was Paxton pulling up prior to the endorsement? I'm
not sure, but it was, I mean, it was going to be a close one regardless, but Donald Trump's
endorsement obviously solidified it. It was, it was over after that point. There was no,
There's no coming back from that.
He also did a ad, a Slutty Twitter ad.
This is him being Slutty.
The cost of the pump, five bucks a gallon, didn't just happen.
This is a function of a set of policy choices we keep making in this society.
fight wars we have no business fighting and the cost well you pay it at the pump
and you pay it in taxes. We're wasting our taxpayer dollars to fight wars we
don't need to fight will help people drown in billions of dollars in medical
debt. Michiganders of all stripes are peddling harder and harder and harder
trying to chase the American dream but it just gets further and further away.
It's like, sometimes it even feels like you're pedaling backwards.
Nope!
He's so corny.
Sometimes he's kinda...
Y'all, it just shouldn't be this hard.
Shouldn't be this hard.
He's so jacked though.
I mean, it's great.
It's hard to afford your gas, shouldn't be this hard to pay a rent, shouldn't be this
hard to see a doctor in the richest, most powerful country in the world.
Just three months ago, gas was not this expensive.
We've wasted 50 billion dollars fighting a war nobody asked for, an illegal, unethical
war.
Forged our tax dollars to raise our gas prices, and I want you to pay attention to this one.
609 for diesel.
Now you may not fill up diesel at the gas pump, but you know who does? Trucks, the same.
You literally rip off from Green's Polanski's ad. I mean, that's in dog. That's in the UK
is different. You know what I'm saying? It doesn't count. There's a whole different world
big dog. Why are you bringing shit up like that? Chill.
trucks that are trucking your food to the grocery store, but then
our ad, comrade, chill
translates into higher prices on the grocery shelves.
And yet meantime, the corporations, the billionaires, and their bought off
politicians keep telling you that the best single thing we can do with our
tax dollars is go drop bombs over there instead of invest here, which is why
we need a movie that is finally willing to stand up for them, reject
for the money, get money out of politics, put money in your pocket, and pass them out of
care for them.
Alright, too far, too far, too far Jeff!
Slow!
Chatter doesn't know that the USA's whole shit is doing Uroch ship a better, agreed.
Agreed, dude.
As your only midwester watcher, corny as cocaine to us, I've heard that, I've heard
Other people say that.
I find it odd, but if that's what works, it works, you know?
The Financial Times checked on the board of peace account.
I know, I was going to get to that as well.
Another moment of tremendous graft, Donald Trump just straight up stole billions of dollars
from every other country who just wanted to, I guess, have a seat at the table next to
Donald Trump and when favor curry favor with Donald Trump. It's pretty funny. Pretty great.
Classic. Your cornier than Abdul. I mean sometimes. I don't even know if they mind.
Yeah, Trump's board of peace official fund receives zero dollars despite billions pledged.
I don't know if they mind necessarily corporation can vote in Delaware.
We're not a real country.
I mean, whatever cut out the middleman, you know, branding Paxton who tried to help
him overturn the results of the 20, but yeah, getting back to Ken Paxton, okay, getting
back to Ken Paxton. The Republicans are not doing great, okay? The Republican Party's
not doing great. I mean, obviously, obviously we've talked about this before. This is a
classic Trump initiative. He comes in like a wrecking ball. He does a bunch of fuck shit.
Everybody hates it. Everyone starts speculating that like, oh, people are finally going to
leave the Trump camp. People are finally gonna leave the Trump cult, they never do.
Okay? Ken Paxton is another great example of this.
John Cornyn has been a lifelong Republican, but around short W. Bush, 20 years in service,
well respected career politician for the Republican Party. And now he got ousted by a psychopath.
I gave you the rundown on Ken Paxton's background and all of the things that he has done in Texas
that has actually drawn ire, not only from the Democrats in the state, but certainly
even from the Republicans in the state. Ken Paxton had numerous issues, numerous investigations,
basically like a cockroach. He just keeps somehow surviving all of these different scandals.
He's an immensely corrupt person, so perfect for the Trump administration.
And it's very funny that he is, technically, from the perspective of the Talerico heads,
the best guy to defeat.
Much easier to defeat than even Cornyn is, right?
So a lot of people are excited.
A lot of people are excited. And right off the rip, there's a new poll that came out,
Texas poll that we're going to be taking a look at. This is from a pro-Talarico group.
James, Talarico at 45% Ken Paxton at 38%. And that favorabilities for Talarico is a plus
six, and for Paxson, it's minus 16. Now, does that even matter? Does that even matter? I don't know.
I don't know. I'm not going to sit here and tell you, Blegs, this is going to happen.
And the reason for why I won't tell you that is for two reasons, okay? There's two reasons. One,
Talarico has a lot of like majority Democrats style centrist think tanks in his corner.
And those guys know exactly how to
To to seize defeat from the jaws of victory. Okay
They are the best at that. So he already has some of the worst consultants backing his candidacy
So that's most likely going to be a problem for him anyway
Okay, so that's number one number two
I will never discount how insane republicans are
Okay, what normal people look at in horror, or what normal people can see as a cause of
celebration with this horribly bad, horribly unpopular candidate that the Republicans
excitedly voted for, Ken Paxton.
What normal people might consider to be a mentally ill move to make by the voters in
Texas voters might think is great, actually. Okay. Texas voters look at that and go, no,
that's my guy. I want someone with a shit ton of scandals. Why is everyone suddenly
freaking out over Pax and calling Talerigo gay when there's no evidence so far that
it's worked? No evidence that it will work. And it hasn't led a poll in five months. Voters
have been saying over and over again that they are tired of cultural or bullshit politics
and overwhelmingly prioritize cost of living issues. How is this supposed to be some sort
slam dunk strategy at all. There's also crazy revisionist history about war and alcohol.
They couldn't go two seconds without calling him a radical liberal. Yeah.
Now, of course, centrist Democrats are, are not even satisfied with Talerico, who I think is two
centrist for my taste. Um, some of them have also been critical to Talerico being like, or
Republicans have been critical of Talerico saying like, oh dude, it's, it's in the wrap. He's a vegan.
He's a homosexual vegan who loves transgenders. Okay?
You guys already know what my assessment of the situation is
When they try to hit you with that, you know gay shit, all you have to do is
We're not having a conversation about this
We're having a conversation about the unprecedented cost of living crisis that we're going through
Worsened by the Trump administration. I'm here to fix that. I'm here to make things cheaper
You can chirp about like transgenders all day every day. I'm here to chirp about you know, making groceries cheap
cheaper, making your gas cheaper. Okay. More money in your pocket. It's the method that
Abdul also deployed perfectly in the Fox news conversation. It's undefeated. And now you
don't even need to say it's untested. Right. It was the Zoran method and it worked, but
people will say, Oh, that was just New York, New York is walking day anyway. But to a certain
degree it's worked with Graham Platner in Maine and it worked with Chris Rab as well. Again,
blue district regardless. But I do think it will work in Texas for Tallerico as well. Although
I will say Texas is the one area where I don't know if it will work that well, okay? I think
you have better shot at winning with a kitchen table issue focused candidacy that just straight
up tells you what the policies are and how a politician will improve your lives. How a candidate
will improve your lives in place like Montana, even in Nebraska.
I think you'll have an easier shot in places like that as opposed to Texas and
Florida. Maybe I'm crazy,
but I'm crazy enough to recognize how crazy the Republicans are and how the,
how crazy the independence are in these places. But we'll see.
I think this would be a good testing ground for Talarico.
If he doesn't fuck this up, which he still can. Remember,
First factor always is, first factor always is,
centrist Democrats love losing.
They love taking an easy victory and flipping it around
and turning it into a defeat.
That's number one.
Number two, Republicans are fucking bat shit crazy.
And the more crazy their candidates are,
the more invested they might be.
So just remember that. These are, these are unpredictable races for that reason. Okay.
Sorry to the Texans in the chat. Y'all are out of fucking control. Okay. You live with
them so you know better than I do. They are insane. They're nutty. They're totally nutty.
However, I do think the antidote to that nuttiness is left populism.
Okay?
Yeah.
Stephen Miller, the Democrats made history in Texas by nominating their first transgender
Senate candidate.
Great.
Yeah.
Shut up, you ugly fuck.
Okay, Democrats, you win this round.
If you keep this energy, if you keep this energy in the midterms, if the national party
presents itself like this, great. Okay, this requires a little bit of backbone though.
You also need actual policies, like you need a decipherable, discernible policy platform
that is almost exclusively communicating how you are going to materially improve the working
classes lives, okay? So that's important. Do not scroll down, okay.
So that's important to remember here, Chatters. You need, you know, you need something tangible,
some meat that people can latch on to. Medicare for all is a great example of this,
which Talarygo's not on board with, unfortunately. Did I miss something? I thought Talarygo was
progressive where he was, he always is centrist. He's been wishy-washy and that's part of the
reason why I was like a little hot and cold on him. I did prefer him over Jasmine Crockett,
but at the end of the day, I mean, and I certainly prefer him over Ken Paxson or John Cornyn, but
as a, as a, you know, candidate overall, I think he's not there. He, he plays the middle of the
the road quite frequently. If you remember, his like opening salvo was about, you know,
it's not left. It's not right. It's up versus down, you know, all that stuff is good. All
that stuff is great. Problem is you have to have policies associated with that movement,
right? You can't just like fucking vaguely gesture to how you're going to improve people's
lives because I think that gives you more credibility, right? Another area of credibility
is obviously Israel's a big litmus test for a lot of people. And a problem with James
Calarico on the Israel front is he's not an anti Zionist. He's not an anti Zionist at all.
He has even had a, his, his platform on Israel was almost identical to Jasmine Crockett's,
although Jasmine Crockett was far worse than he was on communicating on this issue.
And, and Jasmine Crockett has done stuff since then that obviously solidified that she is
super pro Israel anyway. But even when Jasmine Crockett and Talariko were running up against
one another in that matchup, Talariko basically barely, barely looked better on the issue of
Israel because he was capable of communicating with empathy. Whereas Jasmine Crockett's statements
on Israel were unbelievably unem, it was just devoid, utterly devoid of empathy, right?
So that was, that was another thing that was at least somewhat frustrating for me.
But yeah, Talarico is somewhat of an unknown for me.
But it did work.
Yeah.
44% of Talarico voters said his criticism of Israel was important to them and swayed
their vote for him.
Over one in five voters, 22% said reducing support for Israel was the top three factor
in their vote, while just 2% said same for increasing or maintaining support for Israel.
Reducing support for Israel will also be a factor in the November general election.
of Democratic primary voters say they would not vote in November if the Democratic nominee
shares an identical platform of unconditional support for Israel as the Republican candidate.
Like obviously there's a lot of other factors at play here, but Israel is singularly important
for a lot of people. But beyond that, it's a very good litmus test for, for, for measuring whether
a candidate is going to be responsive to the needs of the population, the needs of the Democratic
base or the needs of corporations and foreign lobbies, right? I think that's how a lot of people view it.
I see ourselves once again, having to deal with the same exact fucking issue.
I mean, he's not already against Israel if he changed seems just lip service to win this election
No, no, he is he is against Israel. He's critical of Israel, but never but not to the degree that I
think is is good enough. I don't think he's like I don't think he's as sincere as he could be
And I don't think I'm being extra, I don't think I'm being like extra critical of Talarico
in an unnecessary way.
I think this is, this is a real weakness in his messaging and in his campaign.
I've always said that our southern border should be like our front porch.
There should be a welcome mat and a lock on the door, meaning we can, but he's very good
at this stuff.
good way to communicate on this issue in Texas, right? Like he's not saying, you know, oh,
we want our open porous borders or anything like that. I think it was, this is a very
good way to talk about, you know, immigration in the country, right?
It's good. It's appealing to liberals. It's appealing to independence. Again, it's a,
He has a very empathetic, uh, communication strategy on this stuff with welcome immigrants
who want to come here and like which message is more appealing, right?
You always got to look at this, like match this up with like what can packs and says
what can packs is like, oh, we got to shoot it.
We got to shoot anyone that looks Mexican with a shotgun in the face, which message
is more appealing to the, to the Texas voters.
And honestly, I don't know the answer.
Okay.
I don't fucking know the answer to that question. And I'm going to be honest with you. I don't
want to know the answer to that question. Okay. Because that's, that's scary. It's scary
to, to think about what people perceive as, as good messaging in the state of Texas.
Live the American dream who want to contribute to our comp.
Half the people that are championing that, you know, shoot every Mexican with a shotgun
message are Mexican themselves. This is Texas. Welcome to the state of Texas. Okay.
who want to contribute to our communities, make us richer and stronger as
immigrants have always done throughout American history, and we can keep out
people who mean to do us harm. We can know who's trying to come into our
country. We can have an orderly sane immigration system that keeps us all
safe, that promotes public safety. Just like you do at your at your own home,
many people, especially in Texas, were hospitable. We're the friendly state in
in Texas. Are you a neighbor of, you know, the shirt off? Is that, is that the, okay?
I didn't know. I, I was thinking differently about it. Maybe I'm just a, a, a fucking at-a-touch
elite, bike-hostal elite, libtard, but, because I'll tell you this much, okay? Texas has some
wonderful people as does every state. Okay. But Texas also has some dog shit ass dudes
in it. Okay. Some really fucking horrible monsters. Now that's the same in every state,
but I usually measure a state by my own personal, my own personal experience in it. Okay. And
Sometimes the dog should ask people kind of are a little bit too overwhelming, okay?
Yeah, you look at the per capita and I don't know who wins that bad or back, but we also
have a right to know who's coming into our home.
a note, we have a right to know why they're there and what their intentions are. We can be both
hospitable and keep everybody safe at the same time. Our opponents don't want people to know
that you can do both because they rely on using this issue of immigration to grandstand to say that
you know it's a choice between public safety and welcoming immigrants and the truth is that has
has always been a false choice throughout American history.
And we need leaders who are gonna do both,
secure the border and create a pathway to citizenship
for the folks who have been here for a long time
and who have been contributing to this country.
Stay away, it's seriously dangerous legally and physically.
This is where this fasc wave was born prediction.
It will shut up by votes if they have to
and they have the resources to do so.
Yeah, I don't have a lot of confidence in any Republican leaving the cult in any way,
shape, or form, I'll be honest with you. And I think part of that is because I've seen
what the midterms look like for the Republican party. Maybe the general is gonna be different.
And obviously this is a fluid situation regardless because every damn day, Israel's approval
ratings are going down. And because Trump has seemingly put us in this double suicide
packed with Israel, Trump's approval ratings go down as well. Now, we're in the last, we're in the
vanguard, right? Any dip in Trump's approval rating from this point on is actually eating away at
his base. It is most loyal fans, okay? Directly into the cult. So if we go from like, like going from
40% to 30% is nowhere near as significant of a dip as it is to go from 30% to
29%, 30% to 28%. At that point, we're in Oh Boy territory, because that means that even
the cultists are just like, I'm done. I can't deal with this anymore. Fuck this guy.
That's when we arrive at new grounds, a turning point where the number of people that are
getting bored and trying to shoot the president increase alarmingly because it's all former
fans of his and they all have the guns and they all have the intensity, right?
I'm not saying this is a good thing. I'm not saying that at all. Okay. I'm just observing reality,
looking at the numbers, looking at the amount of former Trump fans that have tried to kill him
unsuccessfully and assuming that once that cult starts tipping, once there's people
that start leaving the cult going from 30% to 28% that 2% is going to be extra wild.
Ammonumbers guy. Okay, I'm Ammonachadjibiti at Ammonagrocket.
Same question. What conditions if any should be placed on US military aid to Israel?
This was his final answer on conditioning aid and restricting weapons transfers to Israel.
Let's take a look at what he had to say here.
60 seconds.
As an educator who has fought for children, seeing what's happening in Gaza makes me sick to my stomach.
I quoted a theologian the other day who said,
I screamed at God for the starving children until I realized the starving children was God screaming at me.
God is screaming at all of us in Gaza as we speak. Like, do you see what I'm saying? He's very good.
He's very good. But then he'll follow it up with, like, you know, wishy-washy middle of the road
policy. This is why I said he absolutely had a messaging advantage over Jasmine Crockett.
He had a messaging advantage over Jasmine Crockett, but on the policy front,
But their policies were too close for comfort.
Yes, Israel has a right to defend its people, certainly after October 7th, the deadliest
day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust.
But Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu does not have the right to wage war against civilians.
He does not have the right to restrict aid.
He does not have the right to use famine or collective punishment as tactics in that
effort.
So I have said that if I'm in the United States Senate, I will use every bit of this country's
financial and diplomatic leverage to end the death and destruction in Gaza, which means
banning offensive weapons to the Netanyahu government and ensuring that we have candidates.
Yeah, he's not, he's doing, it's a, it's a bait and switch.
He's not doing the defensive weapons.
He's not doing defensive weapons, right?
But this was earlier too, now there's a new litmus test, so who knows?
Isn't that the same as the Bernie posture?
To a certain degree, yes, but I think, I don't know if they've asked Bernie Sanders recently,
but I suspect that he's also probably been forced to, been forced to just like push
for defensive weapons transfers to be shut off as well.
the new, the new Prague statement on, on Israel is, oh, we have to cut off money.
We have to stop giving them money so they can purchase our weapons. If they want to purchase
it on their own, they can purchase it on their own. Our position on the anti-Zionist side has
always been, obviously, and this is, you know, there's, there's levels to it, but the most permissible
thing that we demand is an embargo, right? To shut off all weapons transfers, no
defensive, no offensive weapons, and to obviously then punish Israel,
hold Israel accountable for war crimes, for genocide, and to restrain Israel,
right? BDS is also the other floor here on the popular front on what people
can do on their own, outside of what politicians are pushing for.
So it's definitely beyond what AOC has set as the new floor, which is to stop giving
financial aid to Israel so they can easily purchase American weapons, because right now
that's what we're doing. We're giving Israel, with the Obama Memorandum of Understanding,
$3.8 billion a year in just straight-up cash, so they can come back and purchase our weapons
that we're designing for Israel. The Tamir interceptors that are a part of the Iron Dome
defense systems, the missiles that they use, is a collaborative development project between
the American state and the Israeli state and we give Israel $3.8 billion a year for a decade
with Obama's memorandum of understanding right now so they can use that money to purchase
defensive weapons as they claim it.
Now of course there's no moral or really military distinction between defensive and offensive
weapons because these funds are fungible. $3.8 billion that you receive in financial
aid to purchase American defensive weapons is $3.8 billion additional that you have
to spend on offensive weapons. The fact that we are also funding Israel's defense allows
Israel to be more belligerent. That's precisely the reason why no one ever makes an argument
to give defensive weapons or any aid to Russia, or to Iran, or to any other country, really.
Right?
Because that would be silly.
It's the equivalent of demanding that, you know, Nazi Germany receive anti-aircraft
battery systems while we're doing the bombing of Dresden.
Right?
Because there's civilians there.
There's civilians living in Nazi Germany as well.
No one would make that argument.
That would be a fucking stupid ass argument to make.
So here he is the racist wait come on don't pay on that guy I want to know or that lady
You're a fucking Bellen cocksucker
We got a Brit. Am I racist towards the British is that what you're saying?
Clip from new interview with talerico on CBS take a look at ZBS
full of highlights of things you've said in the past. And I wanted to give you an opportunity.
Oh, this is him. You probably get a back away from woke 1.0 statements that he's made. Every,
every woke politician has to get their lashings, you know, when they were, when they were doing
woke conda posting, right? 2020 peak woke. Any, any politician to the left of like Nancy Pelosi
has- I mean Nancy Pelosi's even done that with the Kente cloth kneeling, you know?
Uh, every- every politician has to receive their lashings for their woke crimes.
Fuck you! What you fucking mean, lad? What's your problem, then?
Fucking hell! You're a fucking bellen, cocksucker!
New packs and attack ad?
This is Texas. This is not there wait. What is this new ad James tower goes a threat to everything we hold dear this Texas
We will fight to protect this is Texas. This is not there are many more than two
Biological sexes in fact there are six this is Texas. This is not the American flag wait
This is Texas. What does this mean?
It's just a woman
been wearing a cowboy hat in front of a flag that is hanging off of a tree branch? What?
What is, I'm more confused. What is Texas? This ad raises a lot of questions about what
Texas is that it seeks to answer. Okay. Yeah, this is Texas. You fucking idiot. God damn
libtard you woke homosexual yeah the first thing the first thing that they said this is Texas a fat
guy in a hard hat that was awesome this is Texas fat guy in a hard hat a woman wearing a bandana
around her neck in a cowboy hat this is not the american flag it's such a complicated symbol for
for most of us. This is Texas. This is not. They're gonna call me a radical leftist. This
is Texas. This is not something that you love. It's not family or friends. Um, I love,
I'm just saying this because it's on my mind. The trans children. This that line is so crazy.
by the way, I'm sorry. What the fuck were people on? That's not reason, right? That's
like woke one point. No, I have to be honest. Like that's, that's such a strange thing to
come out of your mouth. Like I get it. I get what he's trying to do there, but like that's
a wild way to pander. Okay. You are the woker and here's the problem with this stuff. Okay.
He's obviously going to get fucking inundated with all of this stuff. Cause he has a lot
of moments like that. Yeah. He's going to get hit with the fucking clip. Okay. We're
talking, we're talking belt fed M 60. He's like, cause he's doing like, he's going crazy
mode in like the, the 2020s peak woke. He's just like, like when someone asked me a question
like that, you guys know it's a, I'm uncompromising and defending trans people. But if someone
asked me that question, I'd be like burgers. I'm not even pandering. I'm just thinking
about burgers. You know, what the fuck do you mean? How would that be a top of mind?
Like I know there's a war. Mr. Assam, what does the world hate you? I wouldn't say the
world hates me. I would say that, unfortunately, we live in a very reactionary country and
therefore there are a lot of people who are reactionary and are going to hate what I,
what I talk about without trying to understand it. Anyway, but that's not what we're talking
Okay, it's okay. Look, it's the thought that counts. No, I know
But here's the thing here's the thing here's the thing something that you
That's crazy answer regardless because like that's like what what do you mean like that's always gonna be
That's always gonna be read weirdly even woke 1.0 that would have been read weirdly
Okay
But I will say, right now, yeah, this is, this is Talarico, woke one was crazy, a cis
white man should not be the next speaker of the council.
Stop sending this to me, white people should not be allowed to sit on stoops in bedstie.
America deserve 9-11 will always be read weirdly, you want to take it back now?
I mean, I have literally apologized for that a day after, so it doesn't really matter.
You know what I mean?
And which is, it doesn't really matter, which is precisely the reason why you have to, um,
which is the reason why you have to just like focus on the shit that does matter.
Okay.
The shit that actually matters is what you're fighting for.
Okay.
And what you're fighting for should be Medicare for all, free college, federal jobs guarantee,
stopping the bombs, okay? Stopping endless militarism, senseless destruction all around the world,
focusing on ourselves, America furs, you know? Shit like that. So it doesn't even matter if people
are saying this kind of thing, right? All you gotta do is turn around and get back to
the meat and potatoes. Make them look silly. You understand? Make them look silly. Make
their focus be this stuff. Who cares? Don't compromise on these issues either. You don't
have to give people something to vote for love. That's not family or friends. I love and just say
this because it's on my mind. The trans children who showed up yesterday at the state Capitol to
advocate for their humanity. They shouldn't have to, but it was an inspiration to watch.
Damn, they clipped him to pretty hard.
This makes it a little bit more understandable.
It's still pandering.
It's still woke one, but that damn, they clipped the fuck out of our boy.
Holy shit.
Okay.
It does sound way different in context.
It's still panda for the record.
Come on.
It's, it's, you know, it's panda.
It's panda Pope over here.
It's Pandercity.
Still very different than I love trans children and clip.
And you blame people for doing the same thing to you.
Well, here's the thing.
My opinion on this has changed.
Most people eat the clip chimp and then they never seek further.
So if people were doing this, what we just did right now, right, charitability and being
invested in the truth and wanting to understand further what the context is and not just eating
the fucking bait, okay, then yeah, we would have way less problems in general.
People never do that with someone like myself.
a matter of fact, when they see the context, they double down.
I'm saying as someone who is supportive of Talarico, he should not compromise on, you
know, defending trans adults, defending trans children, defending transgender people in general.
And the best defense is a great offense, and the best offense is a comprehensive, multifaceted
approach to all of the economic issues that Texans are facing, solutions to the economic
problems that Texans are facing, okay?
You come out with a barrage of good policies that you are going to fight for when you are
elected to the Senate and people will look silly if they hyper focus on what you said
about like transgender children or, you know, whatever the fucking clipped copy barrage
looks like.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
Tallarico needs to go to 2021. Hassan every pronto. Yes. I mean, he also needs to grow a beard for sure. I've already said this. Um,
he just looks
Too nerdy. I said this already. He looks way too nerdy. He leads. He needs to look less nerdy
He looks kind of ridiculous
Um, yeah, I know uh, they're tying him to al-qaeda. It's disgusting. We'll talk about that in a second
Ted Cruz stayed neutral in texas and a runoff
But he was a vital early supporter of kempax and for ag back them when he was more country called republicans back then
branch 2014 and cruiser the freshman senator the ads are still on youtube not
that it matters this is before we knew what a fucking demonic entity Ken
Paxton was he can't grow a beard it's his religion wait what
actually are you guys fucking with me I'll believe anything you tell me about
Tellerico because he's like a he's literally like a like a blank sheet of white paper for
me.
I just, you know, I'm light bounces off of him, both literally and figuratively.
Um, so yeah, Texas, this is not our southern border should be like our front porch.
There should be a giant welcome mat out front.
This is Oh my God, they clipped him on that too.
But a lock on the door.
Oh my god, Ken. Oh my god, Kenny Powers. Holy shit. This is, oh my god, dude. It is kind
of funny watching the same techniques that have been deployed against me for my entire
political commentary career, uh, play a formative role in American politics. This is the fucking
forefront everyone is everyone is rat fucking everyone's invested in hatchet
jobs and rat fucking nowadays it's not just like Roger Stone that used to do
stuff like this and he was seen as like an outsider for that reason everyone
does it now
it is not it is now existential that we try to reduce our meat consumption i am
proud to say that our campaign has officially become a non-meat campaign
This is texas this is not
Radical tower we got two loads here for texas. Oh
Yeah, this this dude needs to spend a week with me. I need to I need to whip him up get him into shape, okay
Get a couple get a couple videos of us pumping iron eating big steaks
you know
Eating some barbecue wasn't here on the stream. No, he's not we he was supposed to be in the in the primaries
Yeah, send him two three years the Duggeston, okay
Don't take my vegan king first of all, he's not vegan. He's been there are so many
Photos of him wearing the fucking Texas shirt that I own as well while eating fucking massive slabs of meat and
And the campaign is not even remotely slick
Campaigns not even slick about it, too. They're just pumping that shit everywhere
Right
But yeah, if if they're
If their argument against talerico is that he's woken gay. He's a woke gay libtard. He's not for texas and talerico's argument is
Hey, uh, not only am I fucking texas to the bone, but I also want every Texan to have health care
there, which argument's gonna win out? Your policy-pushing strats seem sound work with
mom Donnie, but don't you think? But you don't think the ops would just do the same thing
they're doing to you, run the fake rap sheet and clips to the ground, they're switching
up to mash the meta? No, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter that they're fucking running
into the ground because elections are about what politicians can do for you. Elections
in America, unfortunately, are about who politicians are and how they represent themselves because
everyone is given up on the idea that a policy is supposed to fight for your fucking values
or fight for, uh, the, the betterment of your material conditions. So we got to get back
to that is my argument. We got to get back to the basics. Clips only matter if you're
just a fucking, your campaign is just hot air clips only matter if you are not defined
by things you want to be defined by. Or rather, if the things you want to be defined by are
are, you know, vague generalized statements about how woke you're going to be, or the
only policy that you want to put on the forefront of your economic agenda, like Kamala did,
was $50,000 in tax credits for, for HPU graduates that work in fucking underserved neighborhoods
right after graduation.
If that's your fucking policy agenda, then yeah, no one is going to, no one, no one is
going to vibe with that.
Okay, you should not be afraid.
I don't know why there are still people who are clearly afraid of pushing the boundaries.
Palerico every now and then comes out with statements like that that make me appreciate
him ironically enough.
But he is a part of the same group that McMarrow is a part of, majority Democrats.
He's still a part of the same group that is looking to elect centrist candidates.
So that scares me.
That's my point.
I'm being very fair about James Tallorigo.
I think if James Tallorigo wants to fucking win, he has to come out with a bold, comprehensive
vision for a change.
He should be unafraid to shit on the Democrats, for example, which he has at times and a lot
people were yelling at him. A lot of people were yelling at him in the primary for his criticisms
of Joe Biden, for his criticisms of the Democratic Party. This is when he's supposed to criticize
the Democratic Party. This is when he's supposed to fucking push the boundaries,
now in the Texas General, okay? There is a real opportunity here. There is a real opportunity
for Talley to win. Talley Hive gonna come after you now? No, no, they're not. Talley Hive is like
half of my half of you guys are fucking talarico supporters in Texas. What do you mean?
My principal told me that I was going to get this kid named Justin who had gotten kicked out of his
elementary school the year before because he had brought a knife to school and threatened to stab
his fifth grade teacher. So I was again first year teacher kind of freaked out right. The kid shows
up one he's not a monster he's an 11 year old boy right like this high I took
him aside introduced myself told most happy he was in class told him I wanted
to get to know him he gradually started to raise his hand a little bit more in
class he was super smart super just quick he also like a great smile he's very
popular with the with the girls in the class a lot of personality and I started
invite him to our little lunch group because I had kids who came and ate in my classroom
during lunch. And we started to kind of build a rapport. He didn't have a lot of male teachers,
so I think that was helpful to see a guy as a teacher and be able to build a relationship with
him. Anyway, right before winter break that year, he, it was the last day of school, he brought me
this wrapped gift. It was the wrapping was all jankety, but I opened it up and it was
this little cup with a snowflake on it that he had bought at the Dollar Tree for his teacher.
Again, this is a kid who was going to stab his fifth grade teacher. A few months later,
he's bringing a snowflake cup to his sixth grade teacher. And I was feeling like I was on top of
the world as a teacher. I was like, who's going to make the movie? Right? Like, here I am, right?
I was in my third period class and I heard this commotion out in the hallway, so I immediately
stepped out of the room to see what was going on.
And there were two of our coaches and they were both restraining Justin.
Either side of him, they were carrying him out of the school.
He was screaming.
His feet didn't touch the ground like he literally was just carried out of the school.
I found out that he had started a fight in his third grade class, and that was his last
strike.
And it was honest, it was the last time I ever saw Justin.
I did some digging to figure out what had happened.
Turns out in the previous semester, Justin had been seeing a therapist that was provided
by the school district, and it was this lady that he really was hitting it off with and
getting along with.
And they were going through all his issues because Justin had been abandoned by his
mother at a very early age, which that'll screw anybody up.
Right. Justin had, had experienced violence, had experienced all this trauma.
And so the first time there was a professional who was helping him work his
way through it, and there was a teacher who liked him and he believed in him.
And that was all it took for Justin to see all these improvements.
And I found out that after winter break, that because of budget cuts from the
legislature, the district had eliminated the therapist.
So this lifeline suddenly went away for Justin.
So literally everybody had abandoned Justin including his own mother and now
The adults that he was trying to trust again were abandoning him
And so that was the kind of radicalizing experience for me
Because these people at the state capital had cut five billion dollars from our schools
Who knows why who knows what the justifications were but I saw firsthand how that screwed up a kid's life
I saw the damage that did to real flesh and blood human beings and
And so I've promised myself right then that if I ever got a little bit of power or a little bit of influence
That I would do everything I could with every fiber of my being to stop that from happening again
So literally Justin and my students are the ones I think about when I'm at the Capitol
They are the criteria that I used to evaluate public policy
Not if it's a Democratic bill or Republican bill not if it's gonna get me, you know ex lobbyist support
It is will this help my students or will it hurt my students period?
And it makes things a lot easier.
I have a picture of one of my class periods on my desk at the capital.
So that is what got me into this whole mess.
I miss being a teacher because I miss having that immediate impact.
All the impact I make now, if I make any impact at all, feels very diffuse and far away because
there's always layers.
But I like to think that some of the bills I'm passing are at least helping teachers
like me and students like mine.
Josh Horses, I don't have any themes about James Tallarico,
but it's interesting to see him telling a story,
which one, by far, the most effective way for politicians to communicate,
and two, something most Democrats refuse to do on principle.
I mean, dude, that's four minutes and 28 seconds of James Tallarico talking to Joe Rogan,
and Joe Rogan never actually fucking interrupts the conversation to be like,
but what about the kitty litter that your children were shitting on?
You know, that's the whole point, right? So, here's the thing. I wish I fully believed him,
but he doesn't support Medicare for also the story piss me off. I know. That's what,
uh, that, that's the issue with Tala Rico or also known as Tala Frico. All right.
Tala Frico has really positive qualities. People complain about planning becoming
Federmann, but isn't James more likely? Yes, um, Calarico has some interesting qualities.
I, I don't like how, how he goes 80% of the way, but then like the last 20%
is just like cookie cutter, straight up establishment liberal bullshit. Like he
is almost like a better Pete Buttigieg in some ways because he has the background and he also
has like moved in a certain way in the state legislature as well. So he has that background
and he has that experience of being somewhat of a progressive fighter, but he does do this
thing that Pete Buttigieg does as well, which is to say the right words or to communicate
effectively, but never say anything really at all. That's all that different from the
the rest of the Democratic Party. And I don't like that at all. He's more palatable because
there is a level of sincerity backing his statements, especially with his experience
as well. But I am very untrustworthy. I am not very trusting of candidates like that.
I've been burned many, many times over. Okay.
If you were to give me the James Toleroy campaign, the things I would do are as follows.
Number one, and this is order of priority.
Before we even put the fucking policies in the bag, before we even fix the policies,
get minoxidil and put it all over your face so you can grow a thicker beard.
Okay?
That's number one.
Straight up, you have to stop looking like Alfred E. Newman, which is what Donald Trump
is calling him like low key.
He kind of does look like that.
He has too much of like Mormon face somehow, I don't know how else to describe it.
He looks like moral oral, right?
You got to look like a chud and think like a woke.
We've already established that.
So that's number one.
Number two, which ironically enough, Pete Buttigieg has taken my advice on this.
He is doing this, but that's besides the point.
So that's, that's number one. That's the first thing, first order of priority. Number two,
go back to the fucking policy agenda and immediately put forward a comprehensive, bold, radical
vision for change. Don't shy away from criticizing the Democratic Party. Show the rest of Texas
that you're a different kind of Democrat, not the type of Democrat that they're used
to.
This will also draw a lot of enmity from the institutional Democrats and the party itself.
really good for you. You're in Texas. The more Chuck Schumer complains about you saying
shit about Israel, the better it is for you in Texas. And before people say, oh my god,
it's Texas, people love Israel in Texas. Wrong. Okay. Wrong. You're wrong about that. It's
not true. There is no place in the United States of America where the overwhelming majority
are pro-Israel, not amongst the independents, no way Jose. You understand? None exist. Nope,
It doesn't matter. Evangelicals as well. It doesn't matter.
The people that like Israel are already voting for the Republicans.
The only group, the only group in this country that loves Israel unconditionally and wants
to vote for Israel or pro-Israel candidates in this country are already lifelong Republican
party voters. They're already voting for the Republicans.
You're not, you're not winning those guys over. They're fucking insane.
They're a part of the MAGA cult, they're fucking insane, they've never voted for a Democrat
and they will never vote for a Democrat.
Drop that shit, okay?
You are conceding to no one.
You will not get a single fucking voter in the state of goddamn Texas for having a middle
of the road approach to Israel, okay?
Not a single fucking voter.
You will not earn a single voter.
I must repeat this.
However, you will draw a lot of ire from the likes of Chuck Schumer
From all of the bicoastal elite smug Israel first Democrats
And you know what those are some of the least popular Democrats all around the country and especially in the state of Texas
so getting people
To yell at you from the rest of the Democratic Party is a good thing here
Because these are the Democrats that Texans fucking hate.
You get to show that you are sometimes unafraid to fight back against your own party in a
good way.
Democrats show this in the worst ways possible.
Democrats think if you're in a fucking red state and you want to show that you're pragmatic
or you're a heterodox type of Democrat in a red state that you're invested in tax credits
or deregulation, the deregulatory agenda.
That's fucking stupid.
There is already a 90-10 issue in the base.
There's already an issue in Israel that you can actually draw a lot more support from
independence on, and you'll piss off the worst fucking Democrats out there.
It's a fantastic opportunity.
Seize on it.
Okay?
Same with Medicare for All.
It's not just Israel, but it's a lot of this stuff, like Medicare for All is, is a bold,
populist, left flank attack that will again, draw a lot of ire and a lot of enmity from
some of the least popular groups.
The problem with Tallarico is, the problem with James Tallarico unfortunately is that
he's backed by those groups, right?
Those groups are backing him.
Let's be real.
The majority Dems are, uh, the, the same groups that are, uh, pushing for Mallory McMarrow
are also pushing for James Tallarico. And that's a problem. He's got a list myth in
the corner. I don't think he's going to change some of that strategy, but that's definitely
what I would do because remember the best defense is a perfect offense. And the more
you go on the offense, and I don't mean like attack Ken Paxton, you should definitely do
that, but that's not what I'm talking about. The best defense is a aggressive offense.
And the most aggressive posture, offensively, that you can engage in in politics is having
a clear cut, is having a clear cut policy-backed agenda that people can attach themselves to.
can identify with people want, okay? That's it.
What caused Kamala Harris to lose was that she did not have a comprehensive vision for
change at a time when people were looking for change in this country. And they proved
that they were looking for change by voting for Donald Trump, okay? He was the change
candidate somehow. It's ridiculous, but it's true. Kamala Harris did not have a
clear-cut agenda that she was defined by, so her opposition defined her for her.
That's the reason why they were able to define her as like, oh, Kamala Harris is for they,
them, not you, right?
Anti-war, fix the potholes, fix the ISPs, Medicare for all, free college for all.
These are things that we can do, but for far too long, we focused all of our efforts on
waging unnecessary wars.
You say that a lot of Texans are going to fucking believe in you.
You say that a lot of Texans are going to agree with you.
Just say that, please.
Please.
It's okay to ruffle some god damn feathers, all right?
To respond or clarify.
Here, let's look at the barrage.
They're emptying out the motherfucking clip on him.
In 2021, in a speech during debate over transgender issues,
you said, God is non-binary.
What did you mean by that?
Well, you know, I think I was being intentionally provocative
with that statement.
But what it means is that God can't be defined by human categories.
The Apostle Paul in his letter to the Galatians says that in Christ there is neither male
nor female.
I'm always going to stand up for Texans who are being picked on by the most powerful,
most corrupt politicians in the country.
And I'm going to continue doing that in this race and hopefully in the U.S. Senate.
You call it intentionally provocative.
You regret describing it that way or talking about God that way?
No.
Say no some statements that I've made that up say no
Double down double down KFC double down be like no man. I'm a fucking pastor
What you don't like it? I'm a goddamn pastor
I'm a fucking priest. I'm an educator
Why are we having a theological discourse right now with people who are the least godly motherfuckers
I've ever seen in my entire life you think Ken Paxton is close to God. I'm a fucking pastor
It's in the Bible or a minister whatever it doesn't matter whatever some fucking religious
thing isn't he something he's something right he's like a he's a priest is that the right
term I don't fucking know this Christian stuff okay yeah
a Presbyterian? Okay, whatever, whatever. There is no reason for you to apologize for
things that you have done that are not wrong, things that you believe, okay? Because guess
what? We say a million different things every single day. And if you believe this, then
you shouldn't apologize for saying it because there's going to be other instances where
They'll hit you on that. And then you look wishy-washy and hypocritical and silly and stupid.
I that I certainly regret there are statements that I've made where I've missed the mark.
I'll be the first to admit that.
But Ken Paxton is intentionally clipping my cringy comments to distract from his career of corruption.
Okay, that's not bad. Good, good, good. All right, good. He flipped it back. All right.
Ken Paxton has a criminal record. I have a legislative record.
I've served for four terms in the Texas house.
That's also a good line.
Damn.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Swagger Rico.
I've got a legislative record.
He's got a criminal record.
Hell.
Okay.
I like it.
Okay.
Can you fix them?
He needs to fucking grow a beard.
This is not working.
I've said this before.
Look,
look,
You know how black people don't fuck with people who just no matter what, and it's not even because he was like a fucking small town mayor where, you know, the police chief did some fucked up shit.
Like there's something untrustworthy, I think, that I have seen in a similar vein with the way that James Tallorico operates that make black people go, I don't know about this guy.
Okay.
And I trust that instinct.
I trust that instinct.
There's something about it.
And even if I didn't trust that instinct you still have to lean into that you still have to lean into that
Skepticism that exists out there and you have to fix it
Okay
Pull up the picture of him with the edited hair I already did and I show it wasn't it here somewhere no
I guess we we needed it. Maybe not a full beer, but stubble has to be prominent for sure
He's too white, okay
He, he too white and I'm a black person who likes white guys.
That's what I mean.
He is, he's like, yeah, this is, like this helps a little bit, I think.
I think like, this is not like all the way there, but it definitely helps.
You know how I've always said, Pete Buttigieg, Mitt Romney and JD Vance have the vibes of
a guy that the middle of the country knows very well.
When those guys come into town, your coal mines shutting down.
When those guys come into your town, they're eliminating redundancies, consultant guys,
right?
James Tallarico has a little bit of that, even though he's not bad at all, right?
You all want him to be Cuban? I just want him to not be so, so pasty. No disrespect.
help Ezra climb a bit too. Oh for sure. Do the Hassanabi look scruff on the sides, mustache
grow out the mustache, scruffy beard, five o'clock shadow with the mustache, even better
than this. He's got to change the hair too honestly. I don't know about the low taper
fade or whatever, but like new attack ad by Tallariga.
remind us all what is attorney general paxton accused of doing the list is really long bribery
dereliction of duty obstruction of justice and conspiracy a majority of texas house republicans
voted to impeach one of their own 60 republicans voting in favor allegations he abused his office
to benefit himself and a major donor who allegedly paid for his home renovations and even helped him
cover up an affair. They claim the AG. You want him to look like Paul Wall? Buddy Paul Wall is one
of the most beloved white guys of all time in the black community. What are you talking about?
Yeah. Okay. Yeah. The answer is yes. His secret email accounts, burner phones, and a Facebook
account to see his mistress. Passion is a repugnant character. He's always been on the edge of sort
of criminal activities. Three felony fraud charges which have lingered for nine long years. In between
at all the state's top attorney had a mug shot.
There are polls for Ken Paxson to step down.
Ken Paxson is an extremely flawed candidate and I sense the worst has yet to come about
his background.
Yeah, you can do a power hour on Republicans in the state that have shitted on him.
Okay, shitted and farted on him.
Ken Paxson is so unbelievably weak, bro.
He better than Paul Dano and there will be, yeah, that's what I'm saying.
that's what that's what I'm talking about you got to not look like this you got to move away from
looking like that. Do a stream with Talerico shopping for girls from Johnny Dang.
He needs to campaign with and speak of Representative Haynes Church Haynes who
is replaced uh Crockett in the house yeah this is my goat. Frederick Haynes is probably one of the
the kids I'm the most excited about Justice Democrat as well uh he is incredible this
Speak this look at the date October 8th, 2023. I've shown this before the night that
the night that Jasmine Crockett lost
I was like, wow, you know, it's like it's like God
God came in and intervened in this election. Okay
This is the unbelievable upgrade that we're getting in Texas in to replace Jasmine Crockett
with this gem. Jasmine Crockett was at this sermon by the way.
If she was not listening to anything, my man was saying, okay?
Jimmy Carter, Jimmy Carter says that Israel is engaging in apartheid with Palestinians.
I love that he's apartheid.
The Palestinians who don't have the weaponry of Israel, the Palestinians don't have the
financial backing from the United States that Israel has.
So they throw their rocks and shoot their arrows and the Israel is able to bomb them and kill them watch in the news a
disparity between Palestinians being killed and Israelis being killed it is totally unfair
But these countries go stand on the side of apartheid because that's its track record
It's stood by apartheid in South Africa because it created apartheid in this country
right dude come on come on dude god he's so fucking dope oh my god he's so
fucking sick he is oh he's so dope he's like the opposite of the the young guy
who just unseated Al Green he had a really good one on on Charlie Kirk to
this man is a weapon okay I need you to understand this man if things went right
He would be president one day
He should be president one day. No, it's not Jeremiah, right? This is what he said after Charlie Kirk political violence
I'm not gonna get into it again. We've already run the clip copy before on this broadcast. Okay, I
Love him and also from what I understand
Yes, he is a righteous weapon a
Weapon to wield by the righteous
but
He is incredible. I hope he doesn't get hit with the with the radical liberal Raphael Warnock ray. I
Do worry about that a little bit
That was worse than black scent it's not black scent. It's just southern preacher sent I
Can't do a black preacher voice
I'm too woke for that. You can't catch me.
All right, we're not going to watch the Charlie Kirk one anyway.
Who knows? Who knows what he, how he will carry himself.
And, you know, what kind of campaigning he'll do, but if he keeps that energy, oh my lord, dude.
Apparently he's a legend in his community as well.
representatives where I brought Democrats and independents together to
actually make progress for people. I've brought Republican legislators and
Democratic legislators together to cut property taxes, to raise teacher pay, to
lower the cost of housing and childcare and prescription drugs. I've passed more
than 60 bipartisan bills as a legislator. I've also called out the
extremes in both parties. On the left and the right I have called out Ken
Paxton for his blatant corruption. But I also called out President Biden for failing to secure
our southern border. So I want to get to the border in a second. Let me let me run one more
by you because again, the president, other Republicans are sure to get it up again in
2021. Yeah, he's got this is the type of stuff that I just don't like. Like he's this is
this is a person that is speaking to what he thinks is the right audience. And whenever
And whenever I start hearing that like focus-tested messaging, I check out because it seems insincere.
I don't know if like the average voter actually hears that and also thinks it's insincere,
but I wish that, like, you know what's better than this? Having conviction.
When I start hearing DNC consultants speak, immediately I'm like worried. I'm very, very,
very worried, right? What is this saying, Tyler Rigo's not supported by black people
because it doesn't appeal to black swagger and black instinct? No, I just, there is a,
there is a skepticism with the likes of Pete Buttigieg and stuff, no matter how hard they
try, where black people don't fuck with Pete Buttigieg, okay? It's like, I don't know why
Why you got all weird and Orientalist with it?
You have to remember that Toledo had to navigate the Republican majority in Texas Legislature
to get anything done.
He's currently coded that way.
They've been crashing out in chat for like 10 minutes.
Oh, they have been.
I haven't noticed what Afex Twizy is saying.
I'm saying, you're saying Tyler Rigo's
failing with black voters because he doesn't put on an act.
You are saying he needs to.
No, I think he needs to have more swipe for sure.
I mean, it's campaign.
Yeah, optics do matter.
The right kind of optics matter though.
I'm giving you an example of the wrong kind of optics,
the wrong kind of performance,
which is being wishy-washy middle of the road
certain issues and and not doing the right kind of optics which is to change your look a little bit
okay and it's not just black people necessarily i'm just saying that like um i'm using
people to judge as a as a launching pad to say like why certain people look at like you deadass
said chains and grills bro okay just stop dude that's a that's what is known as a
fucking joke I don't think he has to wear fucking chains and grills dumbass
that part is a joke I thought you could discern between what's fucking a joke
and what's not Jesus Christ
yeah he needs to put on a duerag dude
Why do I fucking need haters when I got long term community members who are like, wow,
I can't believe you want them to do blackface.
Like, yeah, that's what I genuinely, sincerely am advocating for.
This is Woke 1 Remnants coming back into the chat.
Hassan, I have government overreach. I hope they stop messing with you. Best of luck.
Love from a lurker. Thank you, chatter.
While debating.
You hate government overreach, right?
Bill that restrictive transgender student athletes, you said modern science acknowledges six biological variations based on chromosomes to argue that sex is a nuanced spectrum, not a strict binary.
Do you still believe there are six biological sexes?
I know there are two sexes men and women. I also know there's a very small percentage of people who have these
chromosomal
abnormalities and I believe they deserve to be treated with dignity and respect
Good answer. Good answer. Good answer. Not bad
Not bad. This is a tricky subject even if you're not fucking running for office
That's why the Biden answer was the funniest and perhaps the best where he's like at least three
You've never once guessed correctly about the joke discernment is autism 1.0 and there are no upcoming updates in the firmware
I'm afraid we're running this patch for the foreseeable future. Yeah, it's fine
At least three there's no good answers to this question
Okay, the the best possible answer is dude. Just let people live. Okay, that's like I know some people get mad
people who are up to date with like the latest trans technology for example
they'll be like what are you talking about like we've poured through the data
here's the here's the right answer and then like a couple months later there's
a new version of it is updated patch notes and it's like just just if you're
running for office like the best possible answer to give to that question is
look I just want people to live free okay I want people to live their best
lives. That's it. I don't want to intervene in their affairs. I feel like that's un-American,
and I feel like that's not the Texas method either. I care about what's inside, okay?
I care about protecting my neighbors and what's inside, all right?
I'm not going to spend any time trying to tell people what they can and can't do.
That's goddamn leptard communism, brother. Okay. What is this a communist country? I didn't think so
I thought this was Texas. We're talking about yee yee
You know
The other one they keep harping on, and it's perhaps the most curious of all, they say
you're a vegan.
I'm not a vegan, I'm an eighth generation Texan, I've been eating barbeque since before
Kim Paxton's first indictment.
That's even better, I think.
Even better with a mullet, oh my god, like a little bit of a mullet, damn.
And this campaign basically runs on, on Texas barbecue.
Uh, if all they have is lying about me being a vegan, I feel pretty good about our chances
this November.
Ken Paxton is taking to calling you Tala Frico.
That's awesome.
Tala Frico.
Ken Paxton, your opponent has taken to calling you Tala Frico.
Well, I think if Ken Paxton is worried about freaks, he should stop giving Epstein style
how sweetheart deals to pedophiles.
Oh, true, true.
It's like, dude, dude, that's an attack add in of itself to be like, are you safe?
Do you feel safer in the state of Texas with Ken Paxson as your attorney general?
Here are the pedophiles that he has released back into the fucking wild, okay?
That's another great one.
he has gems. Okay. Gem alert. He has moments. He has moments where I'm like, that's great.
Yeah. The Texas Senate rate basically hinges on how much people know about this case by the
time they vote. Yeah. Straight up, straight up. And this is the guy who just released Adam Hoffman
from jail and admitted child rapist after one of Ken Paxton's wealthy lawyer friends got involved
in the case.
Kemp-Axton even kept him off the sex offender registry.
Adam Hoffman was supposed to serve 25 years to life, but instead he served less than a
month.
As of this week, he's now back on our streets because of Kemp-Axton's corruption.
Kemp-Axton is the most corrupt politician in America, and it is costing Texans.
It's endangering our children, and it must end.
I think the Epstein class has no place in Texas and this November, we're going to come
together to defeat Ken Paxton and take back our state for the people.
Ken Paxton.
Great take.
No notes.
Absolutely fucking goaded.
That's what I'm talking about.
Yeah.
Pack, Ken Paxson loves pedophiles. What the fuck is up with that? That's it. Just run
that. Run that into the goddamn ground. Run that until everyone only associates the name
Ken Paxson with early release for pedophiles. That's it. Oh yeah, speaking of good damn
rhetoric on trans kids is Tom Steyer. Billionaire speaks fluent woke, shocks the world, okay?
Tom Steyer Trans people. I'm Tom Steyer, trans athletes in high school. I think when you understand
the vulnerability, the stress, the danger of being a trans kid and you understand that almost half
of them try to commit suicide. Yeah. And then you think we're going to punish those kids,
we're going to cut them off from team sports. We're going to cut them off from participating
in the community. We're going to cut them off from fun. It's like, no, we're not. No, we're not.
And you know, as someone who played sports my whole life and love sports and love playing sports,
they're more important things than whether you start on your high school basketball team.
And that is standing up for people who are under threat of death. You talk about trends.
dude come on come on fluent woke dude you know I'm talking about that's that
that's that swagged out white boy good it shows courage it shows conviction okay
this is important this is what matters it doesn't matter if you don't fucking
agree with it okay
Bank like a chud, think like a woke, talk like a woke.
Appreciating answers that aren't focused tested, Jesus fucking Christ is refreshing, yeah.
Norway joins France's nuclear deterrence club, nice, okay.
So yeah, let's get back to this fucking psychopath.
I mean, I already, he has a laundry list of crimes, by the way, just straight up crimes.
Not even just a, not on some exaggerating shit, just an actual criminal who is the attorney
general of the state of Texas.
2020 election, a quote, true MAGA warrior and calling Cornyn now disloyal.
It's now the fourth time in less than a month that the president has put his thumb on the
the scale in a primary to oust a Republican,
Cornyn, though, was not disloyal to President Trump
in the Senate and was largely supportive.
Paxton, for his part, has had a series of scandals
that he has survived, including a push
from his own Texas Republicans to impeach him
over accusations of infidelity and corruption.
He's denied any wrongdoing he was later acquitted
in the state Senate, but there were some Republicans
who were angry with this choice by Trump concerned
that it could put this critical Senate seat in play and give an opening to the Democratic
challenger here, James, Talarico, who this morning is already courting, courting voters
and trying to flip that Senate seat blue for the first time in more than three decades.
And Jay, the Democrats got another boost yesterday in the redistricting battles. A significant
win in a setback for President Trump. And he's also unbelievably busted. He is so fucking
chopped. Ken Paxson is so chopped, dude. I think that that's gotta, that's gotta play
for something, right? That's gotta mean something in the race. Come on now. He's, he's both busted
inside and outside. No redeemable qualities to redraw congressional districts to benefit
Republicans in Alabama, a federal court blocking that state from instituting new congressional
maps that would eliminate one of two majority black congressional districts in that state.
The state has vowed to appeal and in South Carolina, Republicans defying that push of
Trump's to redistrict and eliminate the state's only majority black congressional district,
which has long been represented by Democratic Congressman Jim Clyberlant, George.
Joe, Brian, thanks.
This is the first time you've joined us where you know who you'll be running against in November.
Is this the campaign you wanted, Telerico versus Paxton?
Is this the opponent you wanted out of this Republican primary?
This is an attractive policy.
It embodies the broken political system that we're running against.
He is the most corrupt politician in America.
Three years ago, tomorrow, he was impeached by his own party for using his public office,
his position of public trust to enrich himself and his donors at our expense.
And that is exactly the problem in our politics.
It's puppet politicians who serve themselves and their billionaire mega donors instead
of serving us.
It's why we can't afford anything.
It's why we can't get ahead no matter how hard we work.
The system is rigged by corrupt politicians like Ken Paxton.
And so it's going to be all of us.
It's going to be Democrats, independents, and Republicans.
It's going to be urban Texans, rural Texans, suburban Texans.
It's going to be all of us coming together, the people versus Ken Paxton.
Let's listen to what Ken Paxton had to say about you tonight, and I have to tell you,
I don't know if you've heard this already, but he spent a good deal of his victory speech
tonight talking just about you.
Here's what he had to say about you.
Yeah, that also isn't a bad thing.
That means that he's worried, right?
My opponent is the most extreme radical the Democrats have ever nominated.
He's even running a vegan campaign, whatever that is.
He goes by a few names that you may all have heard of.
Some people know him as Tofu Talerico.
Some people call him Six Gender Jimmy.
Damn, she nutted, bro.
Look at her face.
Can he say that is he allowed to say that?
Look, look, look at her face gender Jimmy.
They love the barbers and the Debra's and the Jedidiah's fucking went crazy for that.
Like, damn.
Absolute singer.
Six genders.
That's too many genders
I've even heard some people call him James, Tala Frico
Oh, wow, we heard it you can hear her go. Oh wow
Bruh, I am working surrounded by women like this. Oh my god, some of the most vicious
Tallorigo is 37 and not married. He says he has a girlfriend. He called her his best friend.
He's not revealing her identity because he wants to protect her privacy. Why haven't we ever seen
her before? Yeah, I think, I think it's understandable. But of course, Jesse Waters is like,
let me see your girlfriend. Let me see your girlfriend right now. What kind of car does she
drive? What's the tire pressure looking like? I don't think you're right about the facial hair.
simply as low T tellerica low T low T tellerico brother i'm gonna be honest i guess this is
an advantage for tellerico as well that like ken paxton also sounds unbelievably low T
so it's kind of funny that he's like you know he is actually low T tellerico i'm being dangerous
It's fucking
It's so stupid the woman who made that face is my cousin says the orb lady. Oh my god
I'm sorry to hear that
You call and let me tell you this James teller it goes a threat to everything we hold dear in this state and in this country
He's a threat to our security and our safety
He wants open borders and even said a welcome mat should be at our southern
border. He's a threat to our children. He wants boys and girls sports. Gender
mutilation surgery performed on kids and when asked what he loved outside of his
family and friends you heard what Brandon Gill said his first answer was
trans kids. That's weird and that's a radical guy. He's a threat to our
prosperity and Texas economy. He said you can't be a Christian if you support the
oil and gas industries. He wants to raise your taxes and he won't do a
single thing to lower costs for you and your family. And finally, he's a threat
to our very way of life and our values. I mean he's a vegan who thinks God is
non-binary and that there's actually six biological sexes. It's hard to imagine
is someone more radical than that. No matter what he says or how much he raises, the reality
is that James Tallarico is going to be nothing more than a Texas space puppet for Chuck Schumer
and the national Democrats. See, this is why I said if James Tallarico came out and was like,
yo, these real sucks. And then boom, Chuck Schumer was like, why are you saying that? All of a sudden,
Like, these are unbelievably unpopular people, especially in Texas, but all around the country.
Use that to your advantage.
Draw some enmity from the rest of the party.
Show that you're a heterodox kind of Democrat.
You're not a normal kind of Democrat, right, right?
Those people yelling at you, those people in Washington, D.C., yelling at you or not
showing you support is not a bad thing. It's a good thing. Yeah, by the way, it is very
funny that James, uh, that, that Ken Pax is like, Oh, James Talrigu is a threat to our
children. Brother, you, you just, every other week, you're releasing another pedophile.
Like what are you talking about? There hasn't been a pedophile that you were like, we should
to keep this one behind bars yet. And you're out here being like, that's, that's not a
threat. That's not a threat to your children. The pedophiles that I have released into the
public, into the wild without even having them get on the sex offender registry. That's
not a threat to your kids. James Tallarigo is okay, buddy. Sure.
That is it. That is as of tonight, the Paxton campaign against you. What is your equal time
response to that.
Charles Rapherson, the attorney general in the case of the Republican.
Ken Paxton is morally unfit for office.
He'll lie to you with a straight face.
He's failed the character test.
He's the most corrupt attorney general of our lifetime, and he puts the interests of
himself over the laws of Texas.
Those aren't my words.
Those are the words of Ken Paxton's fellow Republicans.
True.
This is true.
God, Ken Paxton is, oh my God.
Dude, Ken Paxson has a laundry list of crimes and an even longer list of Republicans that
despise him in the fucking state.
Working Texans, Democrats, independents and Republicans alike are going to come together
to defeat the most corrupt politician in America and the broken political system that he represents.
So he's going after you in very personal terms.
He's calling you, he's got names for you that we just heard.
I don't want to repeat some of those, but obviously he's going to spend a great deal
of his time talking about you and transgender issues and children.
What do you want Texas voters to understand about that?
Well, this is how puppet politicians like Ken Paxton stay empowered.
know, he's spent his entire career selling us out for his donors. And that I think is
going to be apparent to Texans over the course of this race. And so the only way he's going
to hold on to power is through distraction and division. This is the oldest strategy
in the world, divide and conquer. They divide us by party, by race, by gender, by religion,
by all this culture war stuff. So we don't notice that they're picking our pockets,
that they are closing our public schools all over Texas.
They are gutting our healthcare, raising our premiums
for Texans all over the state.
And they are raising taxes on all of us
while they cut taxes for themselves.
And so I think Texans see through this game,
they realize that we're being pitted against each other
with these old, tired, culture war fights
so that corrupt politicians like Ken Paxton
can hold onto power and continue to enrich themselves
and their billionaire mega donors.
what about texas voters who will want to know from you on this particular issue
uh...
what is can pack why is he doing a bomb impression i don't know that's what
every fucking politician does
stand telling the truth about you
uh... in relation to these issues especially involving
uh... what he was just talking about their trans just gender issues involving
children
No, Ken Paxton is clipping comments,
taking them out of context to try to paint a picture,
trying to paint me as someone I'm not.
You know, Ken Paxton has a criminal record.
I have a legislative record over four terms
in the Texas House of Representatives,
where I've brought Democrats and Republicans together
to pass more than 60 bipartisan bills,
to cut property taxes, to raise teacher pay,
to lower the cost of housing, prescription drugs,
and childcare across Texas.
And I'm going to put that record up against
Ken Paxton's criminal record any day of the week,
twice on Sunday.
I've called out the extremes in both parties
on the right and the left.
You know, I've called out Ken Paxton
for his blatant illegal corruption,
but I also called out President Biden
when he failed to secure our Southern border.
So I'm not interested in going to Washington, D.C.
to serve one political party.
I'm going to Washington, D.C. to serve the people of Texas.
That's the exact opposite of what Kim Paxson does.
He serves himself and his billionaire mega donors at the expense.
He's just the Andy Boucher carbon copy. I don't think so.
Was Biden actually all that bad on the border? No, but it doesn't matter.
You can't even say that everyone will yell at you.
He was bad on the border, but not for the reasons that you think he was. Okay.
The reason why he was bad on the border is because he didn't actually create a
fucking expedited process, allow for amnesty to take place for existing migrants on us
soil and, and fund the court system that would allow people to come in and, and seek asylum
and be able to work on us soil without any other, without any other infractions, uh,
because the, the current way that the immigration structure exists was burdensome and is still
burdensome, where immigrants come in, they're not allowed to fucking work. They have to
rely on tax dollars to go and like stay at hotels or whatever. They were also shipped
to other parts of the country in an effort to make the system brick. And it did. It successfully
broke the existing immigration processing system anyway. And Biden didn't do anything
about it. He should have prosecuted the governor of Texas and the governor of Florida, Ron
DeSantis and Abbott, but he should have literally prosecuted them for human trafficking, right?
He didn't do that shit either. And he ate the consequences.
of the people of this state.
You just heard Ken Paxton say that you are for open borders.
What's your response to that?
I just told you that they were clipping things that I've said.
See, I'm telling you, they're making fun of his looks.
I mean, this is a losing argument regardless,
but it is one area, I guess, that they foresee
as an area of weakness.
So take it away.
Correction, it's Talafrico.
OK.
And they nominated someone more effeminate than Beto.
and I can't wait for this race to get underway.
Did you know that he looks prepubescent?
These are the notes you took.
Did you know that he looks like the guy
that leaves an apple on the teacher's desk?
That's this guy.
Now, the major factor in this race, Greg,
is whether Tala Frico is vegan.
So take it away.
Tala Frico is a cool name.
I don't think that's a bad name,
But yeah, here is Jesse Waters being a whole ass freak again, talking about how he doesn't
tell Rigo doesn't have a girlfriend.
He's also 37 and not married.
Okay.
He's like, oh, I don't believe you have a girlfriend.
Thank you, dude.
What's your next, Democratic Senator from the state of Texas?
This is what I was saying.
Look like a woke, or look like a chud, think like a woke.
Look like a chud, act like a woke.
Look like a chud, act like a chud, talk like a woke.
like a woke. I'm telling you, he looks like a cop. Who cares? The fuck? What are you talking
about? He looks like a cop. That's great. That's great. The more cop like he looks,
the better. What are you doing? It's not even just for Texas, for anywhere. That juxtaposition
is why your boy is as successful as he is.
Look at me, look at the way I carry myself,
and look at the way I look,
and then look at the way I think,
and look at the way I talk.
I am the fucking prototype.
The reason why so many people on the feet
hypervoke left despise me from the start
is because I sound like a bro,
and I look like a bro, okay?
And they can't get over that, but that's actually good, okay?
That's a good thing.
The more not palpable I am to the hyper woke crowd
because I'm too manly or whatever the fuck,
or too bro-y, right?
Too much like a frat bro,
the better it is for the average person.
It's not like I'm saying compromise on your values,
I never have, and I never will.
Unk, I'm incapable of growing a beard,
I'm never gonna be a chud.
No, there's ways that you can do it.
You got too much of a chip on your shoulder,
we all know if you were in the same spot,
they'd be bringing up your super woke photos
with your fedora, it don't matter.
Who gives a fuck?
Look at how I look now, people are voting right now.
Who gives a shit?
Let's get into this.
He says just recently that he has a girlfriend and they've been together for four years and
he called her his best friend and she was his rock and he's not revealing her identity
because he wants to respect her privacy and keep her safe during the campaign.
Does she live in Canada?
Now, if the campaign has only been going on for less than a year and they've been dating
for four years, why haven't we ever seen this woman before?
Yeah, Jesse Wise, like, I need to see, I need to see your girlfriend.
Show me your girlfriend.
It's not weird.
I just need to see it.
Come on.
Show me your girlfriend, please.
I would like to see how sick she is.
Basically, what I'm saying is that she exists.
We're going to find out because if he wins, are they going to have a coming out party
or is she still going to stay the secret girlfriend?
And is this totally not fake girlfriend also a vegan?
This race, this is a great race to cover.
So Harold, I'm willing to bet...
you.
Uh,
in the beginning,
it's fine.
Get this dude off my screen. Shut up.
I'm working on something right now. Okay, I got
trying to center this thing. Okay, that's good, I think. Okay. Do you think Talorigo
has a chance? Yes. Asana, I missed your thoughts on Talorigo. How can I rewind? Oh, easy.
answer of my life. Who's the mystery guest? There's no mystery guest. It's in the fucking
chat. It's literally in the, the, the title. Okay. None of you guys actually ever look
at the title, but is, is Julian Zollis running for Senate in the state of Colorado. Okay.
Here, let's watch your ad first.
At the state capitol, I brought in half a billion dollars for affordable housing.
How toxic polluters to account.
We codified abortion protections into state law.
But what are we getting out of Washington?
John Hickenlooper has been in office for over 20 years.
I know we're not fooled by his so-called common sense approach, because there is no sense
in voting for Donald Trump's nominees or parading across the country to tell us we don't want
universal health care, when millions of families are struggling to make ends meet every month.
This go-along-to-get-along politics is robbing us blind, while billionaires and the politicians
they control better sit pretty with the status quo. You want to buy a house? Good luck. You want
to start a family? How much money you got in your bank account? That's how the establishment has rigged
our economy. Colorado, we can have nice things. We just need a some other who will fight for us.
Our campaign is built to take on the machine and win. We start right here, right now,
building a movement that is ready to rip the reins away from the billionaires and put them back
into the hands of the people. I'm Julie Gonzalez, and it's time to take back control for Colorado.
Banger. All right, Julian's always in the building, ladies and gentlemen. Right as we start, we have a thing where we bring in some gifts. Thank you.
Some of your favorite things apparently.
Oh, Raleigh, thank you so much. Oh, this is so kind. Thank you.
What are what explain to the chat with the what your requests well not your request, but
What we found in your deep with our deep insight deep research. Well, I will say I love me some tea
I'm always a fan of a good chai. I love some mangoes
And then but the thing I will say is that when folks ask me what is my favorite snack? I will say cheese may
Good gossip. I'm here for it. That is the thing that brings me great joy
And so I'm glad to be able to visit with you and talk about this moment.
All right.
Julie Gonzalez, the candidate for a US Senate in Colorado, current state
Senator in Colorado, SD 34, Jefferson Park, Highland, Sunnyvale,
Sun Valley, Globeville, and the like.
Uh, I'm not going to get into all of it.
It's too many, it's too many places that you're, you're, uh, covering.
Uh, the primary date is on June 30th, 2026.
and your opponent is John Hickenlooper.
Thank you so much for coming on, I'm going to get right into it.
You were born on the San Carlos Apache Reservation in Arizona, you were raised in South Texas,
you're the sixth of seven kids, your mom was a rodeo queen who became a teacher, your
Your dad was a cattle rancher who was now a medical cannabis grower in northern New
Mexico.
Why do you call yourself a senadora and how does growing up along the militarized southern
border shape how you talk about immigration today?
Absolutely.
Well, I'll just say that my family, we're the kind of old school Chicanos where we
didn't cross the border, the border crossed us.
And you know, growing up in, for my mom, growing up in the valley in Southern Colorado, she
got married, had two kids, and then was widowed, and no one was swooping in to save her.
And so she was widowed for nine years before she met my dad.
And then my dad, when my mom was pregnant with me, got a job managing five different
ranches on the St. Carlos Apache Reservation in St. Carlos, Arizona.
And that's why the family joke is like we were, I was made in Colorado but born in Arizona
and lived there on the res until I was 10 years old.
And I have to be very honest for me as a Chicana being on the reservation where it was so clearly
divided between Apache, indigenous people, and white folks, I was neither and so I remember
having a lot of questions around identity and what have you, but like five-year-old Julie
didn't have an answer for like how race works or how power works or anything like that. When I was
10, my dad got a job managing a different ranch this time on the border of South Texas
and we moved there in the summer of 1993.
And so the history nerds in the chat will know that
in the summer of, sorry, in January of 94,
that's when NAFTA was enacted.
And so I, as a middle schooler,
watched the militarization of the border play out.
All of a sudden, border patrol agents had keys
to all of the fences and all the gates.
All of a sudden, you could hear back in those days
the immigration enforcement officers.
Back then they were INS, right?
Not ICE.
They'd talk about, oh look,
we see some electronic monitoring equipment
showing some activity and my dad would get on a CB radio
and say, we just moved cattle into that pasture.
It demonstrated to me that we allowed policies
that allowed the free movement of goods and services
across borders, but not people,
did not give human beings that same dignity.
And then when I came up in the immigrant rights movement,
people would say, well, if you don't like it here,
go back to where you came from,
as if, what, you're gonna deport me back to the res
in Arizona, you're gonna deport me back
where my people are from, from Southern Colorado?
Like, no, I critique this country
because we have been here since before it was this country.
And we demand better.
So right now, seeing how ICE is terrorizing our communities,
seeing how even American citizens are being
murdered in broad daylight is a demonstration
of the impunity with which ICE is acting in this moment
and why I believe it needs to be abolished.
Okay, hell yeah.
Before you ran for anything,
you spent 12 years as a community organizer
at Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition.
Badrezy, you need those, am I saying that right?
Hoveness, hoveness.
Hoveness, you need those.
Reform Immigration for America and the Meyer Law Office.
You've said the day Denver passed
the Public Safety Enforcement Priorities Act in 2017
was the day you decided to file for office.
Tell us about the act and why do you believe
this is the right time to enter federal politics.
Well, when Donald Trump came down that golden escalator, right, back in 2015, by that point,
we had seen both Democrats and Republicans be completely willing to chuck immigrants under
the bus in order to score cheap political points. Yeah. Right, like, back in those days,
Barack Obama, as great a president as he was, also deported a record number of
immigrants, right? And I came up in the time when, you know, saying I'm undocumented was
an act of courage, right? Because the Obama administration was actively deporting Dreamers,
and was a founder of the National Network United We Dream, right?
Like, we had started to organize local politics, state politics, federal politics,
and honestly, like, at that time, I'd talked to local elected officials.
I'd talked to state elected officials who would tell me,
I'd love to help you, but I just don't have any immigrants in my district.
And it's like, you're about to find out that that is not,
in fact the case and look we had to when he came down that golden escalator that was the first
time I ever thought I am sick and tired of trying to explain the reality of folks in my community
and folks in those elected officials communities and so I stepped up into electoral politics for
the first time. Yeah. Was working to get Bernie Sanders elected was working to after he ended
his campaign work to get Hillary Clinton elected. And then we passed the Denver Sanctuary Policy
in 2017. And that to me was the first indication post the first Trump election that, you know what,
even though he had won, it didn't mean that organizing stopped. It didn't mean that we couldn't
still fight to achieve concrete and lasting policy change to improve people's lives.
And then two years later, I ran in that first blue wave in 2018 into the state Senate.
And I'll be really honest, they ran in a five-way race. A lot of people were like,
there's no way an organizer can win. And we crushed it. And over the past eight years,
I've been really proud of what we've been able to accomplish.
So there is a little bit on your background that I'm actually very interested in finding out about.
about, you brought up Bernie Sanders and you were initially, a few months ago, you told
the local news that you got elected the state senate thanks to the support from the democratic
socialists of America, but your DSA membership has lapsed as far as I understand. And when
they asked you, if you're philosophically a democratic socialist, you replied that you're
a democrat. Why did you leave the democratic socialists of America and do you identify
as a socialist?
Yeah, no, thank you for asking that question because when I first ran in 2018,
DSA was newly organized and I thought that they were doing an incredible job of organizing young people and inviting them to participate in politics in a very, very different kind of way.
And we crushed it thanks to that support.
I also believe as an organizer that it really matters to show up to sign on as a member,
but then not show up to meetings,
not participate in the actual work of the organization,
does a disservice to the organization.
I was a member for a year,
but I'll also say I was completely overwhelmed as a state legislator who only at the time got one legislative aid.
And the amount of work that we were navigating was overwhelming.
And so my membership lapsed.
I still believe I'm philosophically aligned as a leftist, as a progressive.
I carry a lot of the Democratic-socialist values, and I think that we share that same
level of analysis in terms of who are the folks who are rigging our economy and who
are pitting people against one another, and how do we then go and do the work to advance
the change that we all know that we need?
Okay.
Your opponent, John Hickenlober, was recently fined just $200 for delaying the disclosure
of stock trading that netted him hundreds of thousands of dollars on a broadband company
and thousands on Palantir stock.
He sits on the Commerce Committee.
He oversees broadband and telecom.
Obviously, there's speculation that he's trading on non-publicly available information.
Do you support banning congressional stock trading?
If so, is it simply because you didn't buy the dip, even though John did?
Or is it because you paper-handed and you sold too early and you weren't diamond-handing?
I wish I had it to where I could like have enough money to go and do that.
No, this is you're saying you're broke.
I am broke.
I know what it I know what it is to like live paycheck to paycheck.
In the state Senate, I earn like forty three thousand dollars a year.
That's a good times.
Yeah. Yeah.
And so look, John Hickenlooper came into the U.S.
Senate with an estimated net worth of, I think, around $16 million and now as he is running
for reelection and I'm primarying him, he is sitting at around $31 million.
Damn.
He doubled up.
It's been quite beneficial.
Must be nice.
Must be nice.
He's just a really good stock trader.
Which is why I support not only ban on insider trading, requiring those like stronger, more
ethics and transparency reforms. But then also it's why I believe that there should not be a
revolving door to shift from being a legislator to a lobbyist. It's why I believe that we should
actually institute term limits. I need to show something to you that you may or may not be
familiar with. This is one of my favorite gold clips. So, John Hickenlooper is a man
with conviction. Okay, he's a man with conviction. Now, hear me out. He was so invested in the
notion that fracking fluid was not destroying the natural water supply, that he actually
went and straight up drank fracking fluid to prove that point.
Well, yeah, that's the speculation.
So check, can you guys find the clip of this for the record?
I need to look at it again because I like, are you willing to go to the distance?
Will you drink fracking liquid?
I'm sorry, it was a race if that's a requirement in order to serve in the US Senate from Colorado
Sorry, y'all. There's a hard line, right?
But what's fascinating is that not only did John Hickenlooper write about this in his help. There you go
Not only has he talked about drinking fracking fluid
So too has Chris Wright the energy secretary who hit voted to to confirm
Do you think there is a it's like a Illuminati ritual where like if you if you're a real one you have to do this
like if you're gonna be in the pocket of big oil and gas and
And be invested in destroying the the ecosystem
Then you have to literally drink it just a little bit of poison
Here let's watch this real quick before you answer
They have a change your answer if you watch him drink it food that is made out of food additives. You can drink it
We did drink it around the tables, almost ritual-like in a funny way, but it demonstrated that this
was like a pact.
Not like a pact.
It was a demonstration.
The demonstration we had, environmental.
Oh.
We had representatives.
We had industry representatives.
Everybody around the table.
It's not on the call.
Yeah.
Wait.
That's not the video.
This is the video.
To your health.
Oh, this is Chris Wright.
lives and healthier lives of billions of people around the world from oil and gas.
This is the freakiest thing. How does that make you feel?
It is so cringe. It is so ugly to see people making light of a process that first and foremost
is destroying our planet. I've also talked to the survivors of homes that have exploded
due to being so close to where fracking is taking place in Colorado. I've spoken to those family
members and survivors and so to see them making light of a process that is destroying people
and our planet in order to jack up their own personal profits is gross. And if that is what
it takes in order to be inducted into the establishment, hard pass.
Okay. Hickey and Looper has also spent his entire political career to the right of single
payer. As governor, he helped tank Colorado's Universal Healthcare Amendment in 2016. He then
He then ran for president in 2019, declaring Democrats are not socialists and argued Medicare
for All should not be a litmus test.
He ran for Senate in 2020 on a public option that he openly framed as a substitute for
Medicare for All, telling debate audiences a single pair was an evolution, not a revolution
that could take 15 years.
As Senator, he's never cosponsored Bernie's Medicare for All.
How do you envision implementing a system different from that of your opponent?
First and foremost, I show up and listen to people who oftentimes have either felt taken
for granted by the party or not taken into account by the party at all.
And when, as Hickenlooper has always been an executive, he was a business lead, he was
and an oil and gas executive, then a business leader,
then mayor, then governor, then ran for president,
and when that didn't work out,
because he was out there telling people
across the country that Americans did not want Medicare
for All, Chuck Schumer then volunteered him
to run for the US Senate.
There are clips of him from that first campaign saying,
I'm not cut out to be in the Senate,
but then he changed his tune and then ran.
Look, at the end of the day, I think that no one is coming to save us, but us.
And so it requires a different approach to our politics.
It requires showing up, listening to people, reminding them that we can't have nice things
if we're willing to stand up and fight for them.
Yeah.
There's obviously a lot of differences between you and Hick and Looper in terms of your attitude
towards ICE as well.
You already said that you want to abolish ICE, Hickenlooper's call for the overhaul
of ICE, which I think is the wishy-washy focus group tested messaging that centrist
Democrats, corporate Democrats oftentimes deploy.
But what do you think is the difference between your stances and do you believe that I should
be prosecuted, not just abolished and prosecuted for their crimes?
So let me take a step back and just share that the year that I graduated from high school
The year that I graduated from high school in 2001 is when the DREAM Act was first introduced.
The DREAM Act is now old enough to get a beer, and it is older than ICE. And, you know, so many
of these establishment politicians love to just talk about like, oh no, but ICE is an important
part of our federal government? No, it isn't. It is an, it is a system, it is an agency
and department that has existed for less time than the solutions that we have known that
we have needed for decades. The cruelty has always been the point when it comes to immigration
and Customs Enforcement.
And I have seen firsthand doing immigrant rights
organizing for like 20 years,
both out in community and now at the Capitol
and in the state Senate,
seeing how ICE lies to local law enforcement,
to local elected officials, to state elected officials,
they're lying to the American people.
And then Hick's response is,
well, let's just have them put on body cameras.
And that will be the reforms that we need.
Let's have them take off their masks.
They wanna film the process to cut video footage anyway.
As a matter of fact,
the guy in the one of the iceges that shot
one of the civilians in Minneapolis,
like, yeah, I mean, he had his phone out,
the one who shot Renee Goodie,
he had his phone in one hand,
he was like filming the footage.
So it's clearly not a solution whatsoever.
There needs to be accountability.
Absolutely.
And when you're talking about abolishing ICE,
replacing it with a system that works,
breaking up the Department of Homeland Security,
because there is a whole history around how DHS and ICE
specifically came to be.
And that goes back to the fear mongering that
took place in the aftermath of 9-11,
where all of a sudden you saw immigration
and criminality being conflated
and every immigrant was a potential terrorist.
Every immigrant was a potential criminal
that needed to get weeded out.
And ICE has been the police force
to try to inflict as much harm as possible.
And quite frankly, I've seen what happens
to good people when they get swooped up
and caught up in ICE's drag net policies.
I've seen inside of the detention center.
I worked as a paralegal at an immigration
and criminal defense firm for years
where we would witness the extent
to which ICE would lie with impunity
and then have to back off only after they got caught.
I've been inside those detention centers.
I've seen it firsthand.
So speaking of the detention centers,
the ICE Center Center run by GEO group in Aurora
holds over 1500 inmates.
And what some reports describe as horrific conditions,
there's moldy food, people earn a dollar per day
in this voluntary labor program.
Do you view this labor program as a continuation
of the carceral system that grew out of
runaway slave catching?
And do you believe private prisons should be abolished?
Let me tell you that story because I was a paralegal
working alongside several of those immigrant-detained
clients who ended up being the lead plaintiffs
in that litigation.
And my homie, David Seligman, from Towards Justice,
who's now running for Attorney General,
and my bestie, Hans Meyer, who was the immigration attorney
the immigration attorney who I worked alongside were the legal minds who understood that sometimes
you need to file the litigation in order to create the political space to then force change.
I'm so proud of the way that those detained clients said, I have nothing to lose.
Let me go and try to advance this class action suit.
a decade on, and that case is finally coming up for its day in court, and I couldn't be
prouder.
But what is also clear is that your connection to the runaway slave patrols and the attempts
by ICE to force detained people to conduct labor that they should be paid for a thriving
wage, a minimum wage at least, not a dollar a day at risk of being thrown into solitary
confinement if they refused, right? That is so closely related to the history of slavery
in this country, the history of forced labor in this country, and it is why engaging in
this work on many different fronts, whether it's organizing, whether it's legal, whether
it's policy change, whether it's protest, all of those tools and tactics are needed
in order to force that change to happen.
Geo-group wants to build a second detention center now
and at the old Hudson Correctional Facility
on the Eastern Plains, when you're a U.S. Senator,
how will you work to stop these new ICE detention facilities
from springing up in your backyard?
Yeah, I'll say that Aurora, Colorado, was the innovator.
Back in 1987, actually, the Geo-group
in the Aurora Detention Center was where
for-profit immigration detention got its start and so I feel like we have a responsibility in
Colorado to get, we have a responsibility to end all of that private immigration detention
because what is clear is that at every single step of the immigration deportation machine,
There's a profit motive that exists, whether it's surveillance with corporations like Flock and Palantir, right, who are monetizing surveillance of all of us, whether it's the detention corporations that are profiting like geo group in Aurora, CoreCivic, whether it's, you know, key lime air and the air companies and the bus companies who are profiting off a removal.
When you actually strip out that profit motive,
I was talking to my friend,
Chris Newman from Andalund,
the National Day Laborers Organizing Network.
He was like, look,
given this latest congressional spending,
budget approval, ICE now has more money funded to it per year than the IDF.
It's like, when you look at that level of resource that is being directed
to inflict cruelty and pain so that corporations can profit.
Makes me ask the question, isn't there a better way?
Couldn't we do things differently?
Strip out that profit motive,
ensure that people are treated with dignity and respect,
ensure that there's enough immigration judges so that people don't have to wait,
I don't know, decades for their case to come up in court.
We know what the solutions are, man.
We just need to go and do the work and have leaders willing to stand up to ICE, say, how no abolish it,
we prosecute, break up DHS and then do the work to build a system that works for us all.
Yeah, so you have a very interesting background and a personal experience with criminal justice system as well.
In 2019, you stood on the Colorado Senate floor and you told your colleagues,
Your own father-in-law had been murdered and his killer was never prosecuted and said even if they had caught him
That you would not you couldn't support executing him
He came back the next year with a Republican co-sponsor and abolished Colorado's death penalty
Meanwhile, Trump's day one executive order or team 164
Directs attorney generals to seek the death penalty for every capital crime committed by an undocumented immigrant
will you co-sponsor Bernie and Ayanna Presley's federal death penalty prohibition act and
And what does federal abolition look like under a Trump Department of Justice that's specifically racializing who gets executed?
Oh my gosh, I
I will
Can I give you some? Yeah, some uh, I
Don't know what it is, but with your I'm seeing a lot of chatters first of all that don't know your background
Sure that don't know the the amount of time and effort that you've put in to all of these things that we're talking about and
You can start off by saying yes
With the rest of the because I know where you're coming from but they don't and they're being dickheads right now
And I'm I'm trying to you know get them to chill the fuck out as well
But just you can you can start off with a yes, and then yeah, and then explain it
I feel like would be a little bit, maybe would cause dummies in my community to be more understanding of where you're coming from.
I appreciate, I appreciate that. I appreciate the notes. And also, I'm a person who likes to provide context because I think that so much of this work requires nuance. And so thank you. I'll say that, you know, when
I came into the legislature and I thought it was just immoral that the state could say
that killing someone is wrong and so we're going to punish you by killing you.
I just thought that that was hypocritical and immoral.
And so, but also I served alongside in the state senate and in the state house two people
who had been directly impacted losing their sons to murder.
And just having to sit with that,
it taught me that sometimes there are issues
that are very partisan,
are very Democratic or Republican.
And then there were also other policies
that there wasn't a red-blue split, right?
Like I worked alongside a Republican
who grew up in the South
and read Brian Stevenson's Just Mercy
and then was like, his mind was changed
and said, this is wrong.
And we were able to advance that policy
to abolish the death penalty in Colorado
with bipartisan support.
It demonstrates that sometimes,
when you actually do the work to listen to people,
even I don't care who you voted for in the last election
or how much money you got in your bank account,
or whatever, if you're willing to stand up
and do the right thing that matters.
And so, yeah, no, thank you for asking about that
because it was the first time that I,
it was the first big policy fight that I engaged in
where you had to like really stop and listen.
And especially so with people who had been impacted directly,
you know, having their loved ones be murdered and then have to grapple with
what does that look like to actually seek justice? So you'll use the experience
that you have to try to advance the Bernie and Anna Presley federal death
penalty prohibition act then? 100% yeah absolutely. And the last part of your
question was about like what does it look like to work within the Trump DOG
DOJ, from your experience of, you know, crafting bipartisan legislature?
Well, sir, have you yet received your administrative subpoena?
I have not.
I mean, that to me is, I don't mean to make light of it, right?
But like, also, it's absurd, right?
Like this DOJ is going and threatening
people who it deems as targets,
as it deems as threats with the full weight and
force of the federal government to come and try and target people, right?
And what it perceives as a threat, because the reason why,
what they're trying to criminalize is obviously political dissent.
Absolutely.
What they're trying to abolish is the First Amendment.
This is a very devastating precedent that they've set out to change.
But the the actions that they're trying to target in this circumstance is the delivery of humanitarian aid. Yeah, I went to Cuba with it, not only a journalism visa, but also on a humanitarian aid mission.
And and because the administration is considered that
The administration considers Cuba to be a state-sponsored terror ridiculous
designation that I think is morally repugnant and our actions are even worse and then just that designation alone against the Cuban population
But but they they don't want they want there to be illegal somehow. Yeah, and it's ridiculous
no other country has this kind of
rule or restriction against what people can and can't do in Cuba. Like if you're
from a Canadian citizen, I'm a Turkish citizen, I'm a dual citizen. So if I went to Cuba as a
Turkish citizen, I could do whatever I want. I could stay at whichever hotel I want, do whatever I
want in Cuba. As an American citizen, I have these ridiculous restrictions and it goes unnoticed.
And I hope that people will see this as a moment and really reconsider their lack of interest in
what we've done to these other countries, including Cuba?
You know, part of what I wanted to, I wanted to take sort of two points of what you said,
one around, you know, how to advance abolition or criminal justice reform policies in the
context of the Trump administration, when the Trump administration is acting with impunity
and threatening to go after its perceived threats, right?
I will just say that, I mean, there's only one person who's a 34-time convicted felon,
right?
And he's the president of the United States.
We'll stop.
So, he should know the importance, he should know, understand and recognize the importance
of criminal justice reform, clemency, right?
the rule of law. I'm going to set that aside for a second though and talk about Cuba and how
this all fits in to this politics that has resulted in endless wars, right? Because I do think that
actually the two things are connected. And we saw, right, that Secretary of State, Marco Rubio,
video, another person that Hickenlooper voted to confirm, played this game of regime change
first in Venezuela. Instead of declaring an act of war and starting there, they used some
sort of trumped up drug charges and engaged in that with the quickness. I think they thought
that they were going to play the same playbook in Iran. And it's clear that that has not
There was no plan to get in, get out. There was no justification to begin this war in the first place.
And there's clearly, when we're spending a billion dollars a day, no plan to get us out.
But then you see that they are now setting up what is going to be the thing after
we end the war in Iran, because that's not going well. And it looks like it's going to be Cuba.
a quick secure victory in Cuba in the same way that they perceive what they did in Venezuela
to be a victory as well. Yeah, it's horrifying. And how little we care about other human beings
is shocking to me, even though I know the depravity of the American state at times,
especially as it pertains to foreign policy. But we were talking about clemency and criminal
Justice Reform. Well, your state of Colorado has a governor and a former r slash neoliberalism
moderator, Jared Polis. He granted clemency to Tina Peters, a former county clerk who
was serving prison sentence after being convicted of allowing unauthorized access to voting
machines in the aftermath of the 2020 election. The Colorado Dems censured him. He came back
today, I think with a tape over his mouth in one of the Zoom sessions that they were
doing. What's your personal take on the situation as someone who is investing in criminal justice
reform? Do you believe Tina Peters was simply a patriot trying to unrig the 2020 election?
No. Dude, okay. Jared Polis is a multi-millionaire who thinks that he is always the smartest person
in the room. Look, when he first ran, I was so excited about his candidacy and campaign
because he was talking about being a champion on immigrant rights, he was talking about
being a champion on cannabis legislation, and I was like really excited about that,
right? Someone who couldn't be bought by the corporate lobby, right? And now, eight years
on, a new governor can't come quick enough. And what has been incredibly frustrating,
right? Tina Peters was a Republican cleric and recorder who got sucked into the Trump big lie
and she committed multiple felonies and misdemeanors and was prosecuted in one of the most Republican
counties in the state of Colorado and convicted by a jury of her peers.
for Jared Polis to then go and say, and for months, hold on anybody being able to access
clemency or pardons in order to wait until two days after our legislative session concluded
to then drop this. I think that he called Lauren Boeber before he called Democrats,
great to let them know by partisanship. God. And now that I was one of the 700 Democrats
who said hell no, he needs to be held to account and recommended his censure. And he's a political
prisoner now because of you. Don't threaten him with a good time. But genuinely, it is when
men who have incredible amounts of personal wealth finally find out the consequences of
their actions and then they act as if they are being targeted and persecuted. Come on.
He is suffering the consequences of his own actions. And here we are, right?
Do you feel like he's faced tremendous adversity as a redditor, though, as a person who was
a moderator of the r slash neoliberalism subreddit?
That man has never had a boss in his entire life.
I feel zero empathy for him and his millions and millions of dollars.
He can wipe away his tears with that money and be held to account for his consequence.
I worry though is that he is trying to set himself up for some sort of political on-court
after serving as our governor.
And all I can tell you, man, is that not only on this issue, he has vetoed already once
and is threatening to veto it second time the Worker Protection Act, which would make
it easier in Colorado for workers to unionize. He is, you know, super, like, so oppressed.
So oppressed.
Dram queen.
Dram queen.
Ugh. Like, miss me with that. Sorry. And look, not only, not only on this, around Clemency
Fratina Peters, threatening to veto the Worker Protection Act, which is the main priority
of labor unions in the state of Colorado.
He also rolled out the welcome carpet
for Palantir to come to Colorado.
And look, I worked on a bill to require
that ICE goes and gets a warrant
before they can access Colorado's
personal identifying information.
Six weeks after he signed that bill into law,
he then tried to direct his own agencies
in the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment
to comply with the ICE administrative subpoena.
And a whistleblower took him to court.
I had to testify in that case to tell the judge
about the intent of our law and why it was clear
that Jared Polis, our dear governor,
was trying to subvert the intent
and the plain text of the statute that we wrote.
Yeah, he's terrible, but I think like Jared Polis
And Hickenlooper are of the same cut from the same cloth, very wealthy dudes, very out
of touch.
And on top of that, like they might have some redeemable qualities every now and then in
office like, but, but ultimately their output broadly is not ever going to center the working
class in Colorado.
And one of the examples that I would like to use now is Hickenlooper has taken over
$270,000 from APAC aligned owners since his bid to become senator in his 2020
campaign. You've called APAC support for Hickenlooper repulsive and immoral.
You've said you take zero corporate PAC dollars,
zero dollars from APAC in particular. Um,
why do you hate APAC so much?
Do you not want, uh,
my favorite emotional support apartheid states voice to be heard and represented
adequately in American Congress?
Look, there is so much money infecting our politics right now.
I think that we ought to, I think that the Democratic Party needs to stop being the like
Diet Coke version of being bought and sold to dark money.
We'll stop.
And I also think that the way that APAC is going about its donations to support candidates
is repulsive.
I take zero APAC dollars and I think that instead we should all work together to ensure
the safety, security, and self-determination of all people who are living in Gaza right
now.
Like that to me is the path forward.
But what is clear is that instead APAC pushes a politics that makes it easier for politicians
to just shut up and say nothing, then to speak out when there are war crimes playing out
on our phones that we can all witness. When there is a genocide that is taking place,
and if you don't believe me, look at where Amnesty International, look at where the international
consortium of genocide is going.
No, no, no, no, I can't hear you actually. Again, you're bringing up these things, but
this is hurting my feelings.
I'm sorry.
feelings are much more important than the safety and security of millions of Palestinians.
What do you have to say to that?
This isn't about your feelings. Sorry. Let us actually ground ourselves in the lived
experiences and the harm that Palestinians and also, I will also say that there are
plenty of Israelis who are also as viciously critical of the Netanyahu government's actions.
Look, it's not about Israel's small nation. Israel's small nation, size of New Jersey.
And I rest my case. Feelings about the dark money that is impacting our politics
politics cannot carry over the day. We're in a real inflection point right now, I think,
as a Democratic Party, as to who we are going to be and who we are going to fight for. And
I am trying to do the work to return Colorado and the American politics to being by, for,
and of working people.
Will you sign on to Block the Bombs Act?
Yes.
Do you support defensive aid to Israel like the Iron Dome?
Look, on this, I do support the safety and the security and the self-determination of
all people.
But I also think that in this moment, when Israel has broken and demonstrated its inability
to actually protect human rights and is committing genocide, then they no longer should receive
any aid from the US government. Full stop. And they have also said that it's time.
The Netanyahu administration has said it's time for them.
I don't really care about their perspective on this, because I will say, much like with ICE,
I am personally not only in favor of of ending aid but also an arms embargo in general
true and also to
To to hold Israel accountable not only to restrain Israel, but to hold Israel accountable in the court of international law
And I feel like that's that's a conversation that that gets lost in this
In this circumstance like the fact that Benjamin and yahoo is in favor of also ending aid
I mean, he's been saying this since 1994, I believe, so it's irrelevant.
It's immaterial to the conversation.
But also, APAC and the politicians that they buy then go and say, well, even though for
damn near 20 years or just over 20 years, the Israeli government has said, we no longer
need that support.
and that support, they are still going and providing millions of dollars of aid.
Then we wonder why we can't have nice things. We ought to instead invest those dollars here at home, right?
To advance Medicare for All, to advance affordable housing, to do that work.
Will you advocate for a single democratic state with equal rights for all?
Look, I feel like I need to allow for those conversations to happen in a way where Palestinians
and Israelis and everybody who's living in Gaza, I think that they need to figure out what that
self-determination looks like for them. If that means that Palestinians decide that they want
support from the U.S. government to rebuild? That is, that's something that we should absolutely,
as the United States government, help to fund because we were complicit in that destruction,
right? What I believe, as a Chicana, as someone who has witnessed borders crossing over and turning
my ancestors into U.S. citizens overnight, right, after the consequence of a war, I know
what that feels like and I feel like for myself I should not be saying here's what I am going
to inflict upon people in a land that I've never lived in, but I want to ensure that
they can make those decisions for themselves rooted in their own justice and humanity.
Okay. In April, 2026, at about four months into you participating in this race, Hickenlooper
came out and had a change of heart. For the first time, he finally voted yes on Bernie's
resolutions to block the bulldozer 1,000 pound bomb sales, the same kinds of resolutions
that he had voted against in 2024. And again, last summer, do you believe that John Hickenlooper
has finally had a change of heart, or do you feel like your primary challenge actually
forced him to re-evaluate his voting record on this?
I think this is an incredible demonstration of why primaries matter, because I think had
I not been in this primary race, he would have never had to even think about it, never
had to consider it, and so absolutely, I don't think that this was somehow some sort of moral
shift on his part.
I think it was pure politics in order to try to take that issue off the table.
Here's an issue you can't take off the table. In October, 2025, Hickenlooper voted to give
the Department of War $925 billion, which was $32 billion more than they even requested.
Let's get on them to offer a little tip on the top. That's Pete Hegzet's Department of
War. And the months that followed, the U.S. bombed Venezuela, kidnapped its leader, and
is now wasting around $1 billion per day by conservative estimates dropping
Kamahawk missiles on children's schools in Iran.
If you're elected as senator,
how would you spend $1 billion per day to improve the lives of folks here in the
United States of America? Um, even if it's the least patriotic thing,
you could possibly do.
I mean, budgets are moral documents.
And when we are measuring the health and well-being of our economy by what the
by what the oligarchs and what the Nasdaq stock market is telling us as opposed to judging
the well-being of our society by how we take care of our babies and our elders.
I would invest a billion dollars a day instead of bombing other people's babies and elders.
I'd put that money here, invest that in universal child and elder care.
In a ballroom?
Only in a ballroom.
Clearly.
ballrooms. Can we do three? Okay, good. We're on the same page. You heard that, right? Donald
Trump, stop trying to prosecute me. We are in favor of multiple ballrooms. Have a ballroom for
your other ballroom. Each direction. We can have one in the north, south, east, and west.
Yeah. Yeah. Put a ballroom everywhere. Oh my God. That's what I say. Oh my God.
Potentially, millions of your constituents work jobs that are susceptible to being replaced by AI.
What's your vision to protect families in Colorado and roll around the United States from losing
their careers to some chatpots that make Silicon Valley tech bros even richer and even more annoying?
Would you support an AI data center moratorium? Yes, and Colorado was one of the first states
in the country to take up AI regulation because Congress couldn't get its shit together. They were
were doing the absolute least.
So Colorado stepped up and put forward regulations to say, look, there are protections in place
if you are discriminated against, if you're discriminated by a human being.
But there were no protections in place if you had been discriminated against by an AI
chatbot, right?
So like we put those protections in place.
And I have to be really honest.
The AI lobby lost their ever-loving minds about it and worked and then, actually, Elon Musk
earlier this year sued Colorado based on that law from two years ago.
And it forced us to shift a lot of the regulations that we had put forward.
At the end of the day, I do believe that AI needs to be regulated at the federal level.
is the path forward as opposed to creating a patchwork of different regulations across the country.
But on top of that, you also have this proliferation of data centers across the state of Colorado.
There's one in my Senate district, Corsite, has come up and is being built literally across the
street from a senior living facility their diesel backup generators are across the street and like
you cannot get closer to them from the front entrance to this senior living facility and it's
like well they don't have much time anyway Jesus Jesus man that's dark but that was probably what
they were thinking when they put it there it's and it's just like it's ugly to see how these
how far these corporations are willing to go in order to try to just extract profit.
I don't know if you know this, but Colorado is in a super devastating drought right now,
and the amount of water that these data centers would utilize really threatens already the
real precarious balance of the Colorado River.
And who's going to pay for the electricity upgrades?
It's going to be all of the taxpayers, all the right peers, right?
And so, there were...
But don't you think it's good if people pay more for their electricity just so we can
have the ugliest art anyone's ever seen?
Support level artists, support level music.
You now feel like that's an adequate trade-off.
I...
Sorry, that's not a thing.
I'm working on a project where I'm recreating the car cinematic universe.
So...
I...
I need AI for that for you. Can I just say I also personally love being watched. I'm into voyeurism
so it's all also very cool that there's constant surveillance taking place
and and that's something I personally enjoy and I think every other people should get used to it.
Well, maybe you too along with the executives at Palantir would find a welcome Matt out to donate
to John Hickenlooper's campaign because I'll tell you, he was being supported by those surveillance
companies, by those AI companies, and until the folks at Purge Palantir called him out,
then he was like, oh, my bad. I actually still don't know if he's actually
returned those contributions or given them to an immigrant rights organization or what have you,
but he is exceptionally good at doing the absolute least until he's called out for it,
and then being like, oh, I'm sorry.
So anyway, I would just say that these data centers are brutal.
They are devastating people and our planet,
and that neighborhood that they have chosen to build that data center in,
community, that neighborhood, Glowville, Illyria, Swansia, shout out to the north side.
They have, they're already one of the most polluted zip codes in the entire country.
They are just downwind of Suncore, which is an oil manufacturing and oil refinery that
provides a lot of the jet fuel for Denver International Airport, right?
And so to see the way that poor communities, communities of color continue to get impacted
by the old energy, the energy of the old, like in terms of oil and gas refineries, and
then also these data centers is just exhausting.
And it got so bad that there was a community meeting that Corsite, this data center corporation,
realized that community was going to show up to, and so they dropped out the morning
of the meeting.
And there were hundreds of people demanding answers about what this data center was going
to do, who was going to pay for it, and what their plans in terms of electricity and water
and all these things were going to be.
And Corsair's answer was, ugh, never mind.
And so just actually last week, Denver City Council advanced a one-year moratorium on
data centers, which I'm shout out to Sunrise, shout out to GES Coalition, shout out to
all the local organizers who made that moratorium happen.
And also one year is not enough, right?
And we've seen these corporations pit local communities against local communities.
That's why I support Bernie Sanders' moratorium on data centers altogether, so we can actually
understand what is going to be the environmental implication and how do we regulate the AI
that is producing the slot that is just pickling our brains.
Okay.
Speaking of pickled brains, you've been critical of Chuck Schumer's leadership in the Senate.
Do you think it's finally time for him to run for president or is he not old enough just yet?
I think he's got to wait another couple of terms actually, but I think that that's a good goal just like you know keeps at it
No, man. Honestly. He is like
Chuck Schumer is a huge part of why Americans can't have nice things he has
effectively managed our descent into fascism instead of
of doing the work to listen to the rage of the base
and actually build an opposition party
to this mag extremism.
He's instead just engaged in the politics
of go along to get along, poll tested politics
that results in nothing happening.
And the billionaires and the corporations
that they control sitting,
breaking in the corporate profits while they still can.
I wouldn't support Chuck Schumer to continue on
as the Democratic leader.
And I think that also with Amy Klobuchar
and Dick Durbin stepping aside,
that there's a real opportunity for an entire new generation
of Senate Democratic leadership
that can actually divest us from our addiction
to corporate PAC money and actually return us
to being a party where there were working people.
All right, I got two last questions for you.
And I have a question for you as well.
All right, perfect.
Well, me first.
Okay.
This is the Zoram method.
He was able to define his own campaign
by five easy to identify policies.
I think that's a very successful way to go about it.
What are your top five priorities for Colorado? And how would you go about implementing them?
Hey, Medicare for all, universal child and elder care, abolish ice, get dark money and corporate pack money out of our politics and housing first.
Okay, that was great. Um, all right. Now your question before we get into the rapid fire round. Okay. Here's my question. Are you a do you say number?
I'm not.
Hey, how do you identify?
I, well, there's a couple of different reasons why I'm, I say I'm organization agnostic.
I work with DSA the most out of any organization, but I'm not a, I'm not a paying member of
the Democratic Socialists of America.
And the reason why I do that is because I don't want, you know, I say a lot of stuff
and sometimes it's, it can potentially impact the way an organization is seen by outsiders
Like even with the, even with the subpoena Fox news reported me as a,
as a DSA member and as a headlining member of the DSA.
So I, I try to avoid things like that. Um, that's part of the reason. I mean,
I, I love the democratic socialist of America. Me too. Me too. And they're,
they're amazing. I mean, I literally,
I have their, the custom made Denver DSA hat that I got.
Melot shout out. Yeah. That I wear everywhere. Um,
And that's the only reason, but I work closely with the DSA, probably the most, but I'm
organistic like PSL, DSA doesn't matter.
Yeah.
So, I just want to step back from that because it was one of the earlier questions that you'd
ask me is like, oh, you know, why be, are you a member and why did you let your membership
last?
Like, I'll just be really honest.
Like I did a lot of organizing work for years and like being a member of an organization
is something that I take really seriously and like I don't want to be a member in name
only and then not show up and then participate, right?
Like I align, I am values aligned.
I also was a founding member of working families party, you know, but like now as an elected
official, like I've stepped back from that.
But now I'm endorsed by Working Families Party, like I'm endorsed by Sunrise, I'm endorsed
by the AFL-CIO and Rocky Mountain Equality Action Fund and like a whole constellation,
right, of progressive and leftist local and state elected officials, right?
Like, I really appreciate that.
Like, you being willing to like understand how your positionality within a broader movement
it matters, right? And like, we have to treat that with the nuance that it requires and deserves.
I do identify as a socialist, though. That's, I mean, I'm very open about that.
Yeah. Yeah. I don't even mind being called a communist, even though, you know, I don't know if I would be
considered a communist, regardless. So that's like, my, my, my reasoning for DSA is not like
ideological. I love the democratic socials. They're great.
Yeah. And I do too. Like they're, I think, doing beautiful, powerful work of reminding folks who
have been left out of the party. I'll say like as a Latina, as a Chicana, right? Like for a long
time, the Democratic Party treated folks in my community like just base voters that we just
just had to be reminded to go and get out the vote.
When like actually the Republican party
and especially MAGA extremists have been going
and targeting and actually trying to persuade
Latino men especially, right?
To go and leave the Democratic Party
and adopt that MAGA extremist vibe.
And I think that DSA, Working Families Party,
those organizations are doing beautiful work to remind folks,
we don't have to settle for crumbs,
we can't actually live our values
and we can actually have nice things
if we're willing to stand up and fight for them.
And so I take that perspective as an organizer
and as a member of a broader movement, right?
Really seriously and think of it, it matters.
And so, I don't know,
Really appreciate you being willing to chat about that with me. Yeah, all right rapid fire questions before I let you go
And thank you so much. Absolutely. I'm out. Absolutely. Um, are you in favor of Medicare for all? Yes
Universal childcare. Yes abolishing and prosecuting ice. Yes abolishing private prisons. Yes raising tax on billionaires. Hell. Yes
Raising the minimum wage. Absolutely
Implementing wage. Implementing wage. Implementing the Green New Deal. Yes. Ending Citizens United. Yes.
Banning Congressional Stock Trading. Yes. He can loopers not gonna like that.
Ending America's embargo on Cuba. Yes. Ending America's war on Iran. Yes. Ending aid to Israel. Yes.
A free Palestine. Absolutely. All right. Well, thank you so much. Julie Gonzalez, everybody,
for people that are hearing you for the first time today. What do you want them to understand
about your convictions and how can people contribute to your campaign both inside of Colorado and outside?
Absolutely. Look, whether it's been in people's living rooms, as they're like taking the first
steps towards getting involved, getting organized for the first time, whether that has been in
the halls of power, it's real clear, dude, nobody's coming to save us but us. And so, the work that
that we all are collectively doing to remind people
that we can't have nice things
if we're willing to stand up and fight for them.
That's the work, that's the work of this campaign.
We've gone around and I'll just be really honest.
I first started thinking about challenging John Hickenlooper
immediately in the aftermath of the passage of HR1 last summer
when we got dragged back into a special session
where we had to cut a billion dollars from our state budget.
And I'll say 2 thirds of our schools in our school districts in Colorado are already on four day school weeks. We don't have enough money to keep the lights on five days.
Or classrooms and I thought, like, oh, but it won't be possible. It won't be possible. The establishment is going to be too big.
And then 2 things happened. 1, Zoran 1 in New York and 2,
the MAGA extremists in the Aurora City Council got kicked to the curb.
Even though those MAGA extremists were funded here and the community-centered
progressive candidates were funded here,
they out-organized and out-worked and they swept those elections.
Same thing was true in city council races and school board races across Colorado,
where you had like moms for liberty school board candidates trying to run to ban books,
instead of, you know, making sure that kids had the education and support to be able to read them,
you know? And that's what kids need more, less books. There you go. Problem solved, right? Like,
oh, we don't want to actually fund our schools. Let's just have fewer resources. I feel like the
next thing is going to be illiterate at this point. It's brutal. And so after that victory
took place, that's when I was like, you know what, not only like, should I not be afraid
by the fact that Hick and Looper has tons of money in the bank and is also personally
incredibly wealthy. I shouldn't allow that thing to scare us because
if we don't do it, who will? Right? And so before I let you go, I also have a couple of things that
I want to share with you. All right, let's go. I love gifts. Okay.
Okay, you just pull it open, yeah, there you go.
Okay, I got some, they got some gifts coming in.
Ask about the nails, okay, yeah,
you gotta also show chat your nails
because they wanna see them before you go.
Absolutely. Okay. I come bearing gifts and I'm so grateful for the gifts that you shared.
Let me explain. This is the Julie Gonzalez for U.S. Senate and Abolish Ice. Now, I want
to explain first the hummingbird, part of our logo. In Mexica culture, Witi Lopochli
is the god of war and warriors are reincarnated as hummingbirds. A. B. hummingbirds also migrate
vast distances and they take different routes when they're traveling north and then when they're
traveling south. And so I wanted to remind folks that migration is natural. And so that's why we
we do the hummingbird. Um, this is, we made a, um, out of our,
whatever our campaign t-shirts, we made a, um,
bandana for your, for your dog.
But I think her she might be a little too big.
Yes. I have shits.
So, um, I apologize.
Probably not.
My size.
So I was, yeah, no, it's all good.
This is one of the other amazing, incredible organizations,
organizing young people, New Era Colorado Action Fund,
tax the rich, fucker.
And I like to make billionaires cry.
So with love from the crew at New Era.
By telling them heartfelt stories.
There you go.
Okay.
Whoa.
Democracy needs immigrants.
I got trained up to understand how to run for office or how to be a political worker through
New American Leaders Action Fund.
There are two buttons, one from my campaign and the other, always trust black women.
Nobody is free until everybody is free, Fannie Lou Hamer.
And then, because there is so much toxicity and vitriol and pain in this world, I bring
you some sage because may it be cleansing for you, may it always be a reminder of the
good work that we all are trying to do even in the midst of great challenge and crisis.
And so, thank you for that.
This is, have you burned sage before?
My mom does, yeah.
Okay, so as a Chicana,
like maybe use lots of sage in my life.
Jesse Broom is an incredible artist in Colorado.
Not only did she design our campaign logo,
she also designed these beautiful stickers.
You know, Blue Surfer at the airport, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
The freakish horse, the scary horse.
So the story of Blucifer, who P.S. is patron saint of Denver and the International Airport,
he, Blucifer killed his artist.
That's what I've heard.
Yeah.
He's got bad vibes.
So you gotta, you gotta ask for Blucifer's blessings whenever you travel or smooth travels
at DIA.
Last two things.
husband Ben shout out them he organizes La Raza Park Day which used to be called it's a park in
the north side um that used to be called Columbus Park if you can believe it even though that
neighborhood which had been Italian had been Chicano for a long long long time everybody called it
La Raza Park we actually fought to rename the park as La Raza Park and then my husband organized
recognizes the rest of the day.
And so on the front, you can see.
And on the back.
Solidarity, you love to see it.
So my husband has a Cadillac.
You can see it in the launch video.
It's the green Cadillac Kalei.
And so he's like big.
We met like he was I was doing political organizing.
He was doing and you saw the catalog. You were like, I'm I was like, absolutely, absolutely.
And he was doing political.
I was doing political organizing.
He was organizing like art shows, hip hop shows, organizing like culture.
And dude, as much as political organizing is complicated,
organizing artists, whole other world.
Shout out, babe. I love you.
And then this is from Chris Newman over at Andalon.
And they're doing the National Day Labor's organizing work.
National Day Labor's organizing network is doing all of the ice out of L.A. organizing.
And, you know, he wanted to make sure that you had that to keep us all safe.
Ice, you should put ice, DOJ, all of that.
I don't know if they'll listen to that.
But we'll see.
Constitution protects us all.
Ask.
Know you're right.
If you've done a Know Your Ice training real quick, you know, hey.
Hey, am I free to leave or am I being detained?
If you're free to leave, bounce.
I haven't been detained by customs and border patrol before.
Then you already know, man.
You don't say anything other than your full name
and your date of birth, that is it.
Yeah, I need that.
I need to get Fox News off my property.
Shoot, there you go.
Yeah.
Do you want to see these nails?
Yes, please show them.
All right.
I'll just show them here.
We'll do a closer camera.
And I'll say, shout out to like on Instagram,
Nayeli's pretty set.
She hooked it up.
She is a Chicana nail artist in the Denver area
and she is just brilliant.
So she put my campaign logo.
She also put the mountains on my campaign logo
is actually the mountains in Southern Colorado
where my family's from, where we go back generations.
They wanted you to get closer.
You gotta get close to it.
Alright, alright.
Just get right up in there.
It'll, it'll, oh.
Maybe, maybe.
There you go.
Okay, so.
This is, uh, different from the mountains.
Um, the, the, my family goes back generations down under the East of mountains in Gardner,
Colorado.
That's where my people are.
Um, let's see.
I had a Loteria card here.
Sorry, I snagged it on something, so don't look at that one.
We've got a rose.
We've got some pinstriping, lowrider pinstriping here.
We've got the Corazon Sagrado here, and then we've got a cactus, and then the Hummingbird
here, and then we've got some Taladeras inspired from here.
And then local Denver artist, Rob Yancey,
built me this beautiful piece.
So you know, I'm ready for a fight.
Oh yeah.
All right, Lugansales, thank you so much for coming on.
I appreciate you.
It was wonderful.
This is beautiful.
Thank you.
Thanks everybody in the chat for also doing y'all's thing.
It's beautiful to see.
It's kind of overwhelming to see
if I'm gonna be really honest.
Yeah, all right.
You're great.
Okay, thank you. All right chat. I'm going to get back to the video that we're watching. I'm going to take a photo with them and then I'll be back in a second. Okay.
All right.
And I got to use the restroom.
This is a perfect example because I said our southern border should be like our front porch.
There should be a welcome mat and a lock on the door, meaning we can welcome immigrants who want to live the American dream,
who want to make us richer and stronger in the process and secure the border and keep out people
who mean to do us harm. We can do both of those things at the same time. It's public politicians
like Ken Paxton who want to grandstand on this issue of immigration, who want to make people
afraid. That's why he's cutting my comments in half because he wants to paint a picture.
He wants to hold on to power despite his career of corruption. So we're going to keep telling the
truth over the course of this campaign. And I think Texans will know who's actually fighting
for them, who's fighting to lower their costs, who's fighting corruption, and it's not Tim Paxson.
It's very clear that he's going to follow the Donald Trump model in so many ways,
including, by the way, his own ethical behavior according to the public record.
But you're going to be subjected to a number of nasty names. And we just heard a couple of them
there, he tried out tonight. He'll be trying out more of those. And I'm sure people out
there around the country are wondering, how are you going to counter that? How are you
going to fight back against that? Because they've seen Donald Trump use that kind of
technique successfully, especially in states with a lot of Republican voters. And as we
We know Texas is one of those states
with a lot of Republican voters
who apparently respond to that kind of name calling and insult.
Well, you know, I've gone to every corner of Texas
already over the course of this campaign,
from Beaumont to El Paso, from Amarillo to Brownsville
and everywhere in between.
And I can't tell you the number of people
who come up to me at the end of these events
and whisper, I'm not a Democrat.
like they're in the witness protection program,
including a lot of people who voted for President Trump
in 2024.
They voted for him because they thought
he was gonna lower costs.
They thought he was gonna drain the swamp.
They thought he was gonna end the forever wars.
They thought he was gonna release the Epstein files,
but just one year into this administration,
they've seen him do the exact opposite.
They've seen him raise prices through his crazy tariffs.
They've seen him grow the swamp
with unprecedented corruption.
They've seen him start new forever wars,
including the latest war in Iran,
and they saw him do everything
to prevent the release of the Epstein files.
And so a lot of the president's supporters in Texas
are feeling disillusioned.
They're feeling disillusioned with this extremism
and this corruption that is embodied
by politicians like Ken Paxton.
And so we have a real opportunity to build
a big coalition of Democrats, independence,
and republicans who are fed up with apparently while we were having that conversation.
Why does he look like a young Kirk? Okay, guys, chill. But apparently while we were having a
conversation, America bombed Iran again. It seems. Yeah. Which is, uh, you know,
Cool, I guess. What is this? This, I think that was your best interview yet on your end. You helped a candidate was clearly intimidated on stage. First quarterly available to fire up and show the crowd that she's the principal fighter without coddling her. You created an environment for the candidate either to be their best or sink into deep end. That sounds like a chat GPT written script right there.
right there. Storytelling is one of the oldest and most effective forms of communication
and direct and snappy responses. We are used to form our politicians rooted in white supremacy,
patriarchy and colonialism. Yes, but we're, you know, I just, I like that she told her
stories. The thing is, most politicians, most people, most candidates don't have hands-on
experience with literally 99% of the issues that they speak on. Okay, so they can spend
a good deal of time creating platitudes. Here's the thing. Every single question I asked,
she had a direct, like she had direct experience with. So that's why I was getting frustrated
with the chat. I mean, but to be fair, you know, it is good to have a little bit more
or brevity in situations like this.
You should, what is this?
It's over for the Knicks now.
I think Jeffery Sullivan said Knicks
in a new Instagram post.
New York is different when the Knicks are crushing it.
Hashtag Knicks Nation.
What is this?
Katie Miller, Paulina Mungabot is who runs the Democrats' Couchies 30 on Mary with No Kids.
Put a name, put your name on it next time, this is a sad, unhappy, female liver looks
like.
Why are they doxing the person who seems dope?
Okay, I like the person who runs the fucking account more now, now that I know who's running
the account.
Also, what do you mean, like, sad unhappy female liberal looks like is why Pew reports
50% of them diagnosed with a mental condition?
I think the real mental condition is marrying Stephen Miller.
Yeah, I did it. I should have done that, but I did it anyway. I think the real mental
condition is marrying ugly as Steven Miller.
Sorry.
Oh, this was fire, by the way. And to be fair, this is actually
Alex Boris, who came up with this first, and now other places are also taking note of this.
Breaking California will impose a 100% tax on payments distributed by Trump's January 6th
flush fund. It was shout out to, to fucking Alex Boris who came up with this policy first,
which is brilliant. And, uh, and, and yeah, that's, uh, instantly subpoenaed again.
Yeah, it was it was Boris that that came up with it. It's actually very smart
And now California's doing it too
Calls grow for home office to block US anti-drone streamers I'm playing from entering the UK
I'm because visitors among the speakers in an event called how the American left learn to speak
The internet and London South by Southwest in early june a labor MP is called a labor MP
It's called for a prominent u.s. Livestream going to be bar from entering the uk urging the home office of revokas
We's ahead of a scheduled appearance at london festival
David taylor
The mp for hemel hemsh dead state that parkers has son pikers presence would not
would be not conducive to the public good. Mr. Pike are a significant online personality
with over 3 million followers on Twitch and more than 1.5 million on X is listed as a
speaker at London South by Southwest in early June. He said to participate in an event titled
How the American Left Learned to Speak the Internet. I'm also going to the Oxford Union
but I'm in the UK and I have another thing with Jonas Verifakis as well. The Festival
of self-champions and is redefining what political commentary looks like in the digital age highlighting
that his live stream reaches more than 30,000 people daily.
London might ban you, it's sad.
However, the live streamers face considerable backlash over several controversial statements.
In 2019 he reportedly claimed on live stream that America deserved 9-11, a statement he
subsequently admitted was inappropriate.
month, Mr. Piker stood publicly by remarks he made as on an episode on Pod Save America,
when he asserted that Hamas was a thousand times better than Israel and that he would
vote for Hamas over Israel every single time.
He said he's not anti-Semitic but anti-Israel in an interview with Variety last year.
Labor MP Mr. Taylor said his shockiness south by south-west would invite someone who has
openly supported a prescribed terrorist organization and spouted these kinds of vile anti-Semitic
France to speak at their festival. With the unacceptable rise in anti-Semitism on our
streets leaving British Jews in a constant state of anxiety. The Sont Piker is clearly
not conducive to the public good. It's ironic because I am also amongst the many things
I'm doing in London. I'm meeting with a Jewish Brit, Zak Polanski. But of course, he's not
a type of British Jew that you want to hear from.
The Home Office must revoke his visa immediately.
The Jewish Community Group CST urged organisers to act responsibly and not allow the UK to
be a platform from the Sampika.
The Sampika is a record of promoting rhetoric that includes anti-Semitic themes, denial
of well-documented atrocities and apparent support for extremist groups.
Is it entirely unacceptable, particularly given as a large online following at a time
of record levels of anti-Semitism in the UK, it is vital that all institutions, including
event organisers act responsibly and consider the potential impact of this kind of rhetoric.
The UK should not be platformed for individuals who spread hatred or legitimise extremism.
The speakers due at South by South West London include relationship therapist Esther Perrell,
Chelsea Clinton, and Ant and Deck.
I don't know what that is.
The festival did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the Press Association,
but said in a statement to The Times that the event brings together a wide range of
speakers with different associations, affiliations, and perspectives, and that inclusion in the
program does not imply endorsement of all organizations with whom the speaker may be
directly or indirectly affiliated.
It added, South by Southwest London is built as a platform for open exchange across culture,
business, creativity, technology, guided by our ethical framework and code of conduct.
The call to block Mr. Piker's visa comes after Kanye West, who is used Nazi imagery
and faced accusations of anti-Semitism was bought from traveling to the UK to headline
wireless festival.
The government also blocked 11 foreign nationals described by Sir Kirstammer as far-right agitators
From entering the UK, I have a Tommy Robinson led rally in central London earlier this month.
Those claiming to have been bought include Polish politician Dominic Tauzynski, Belgian politician Philip de Winter,
anti-Islam commentator Valentina Gomez and Dutch activist Eva Wladinger-Beruch.
What is this? MP David Taylor is back by labor together and got a 10k donation from them
last time. Of course, the people have destroyed the party after you. Yeah. Is he a labor friend
of Israel too?
Yeah GP News London festival invite speaker who said he would vote for a mass over Israel
and US deserve 9-11.
It's London might ban you, it's sad you might need to fly to England, what, what does that
even mean.
Do you think it's legitimate criticism to say or continue participation on the site
formerly known as Twitter's driving eyeballs consumers and money to Elon Musk? Like right
now you're platforming Twitter, driving traffic and boosting the ad revenue of Twitter. Yes,
I'm doing it on purpose though, because I love Elon Musk. Elon Musk and I have a secret
arrangement where I'm trying to drive as much traffic to the platform that is one of the
main vehicles for discourse, regardless of how fucking stupid and how Nazi riddled it is.
Because, unfortunately, in this day and age, the commons are almost entirely
in the hands of billionaires and are utilized like the town square is no longer the real town
square. It's unfortunately in the hands of singular billionaires who utilize the town square to turn
into a neo-nazi shithole, and I personally believe someone has to fight that good fight.
You might not be that person, I'm that person, I'm willing to fucking take that battle on every
single time. You could push people to blue scar elsewhere, maybe not change the world, but make
it better? Yeah, no. I go where the discourse is. Okay. And Twitter is where a lot of discourse
originates from to this day, okay? Is that simple? My job. Also, I don't know if you
know this, but you're on an Amazon-owned platform and it's not like Jeff Bezos is great either.
gotta work within the confines of the system, you know?
What is this? She responded. Now seems like a good time to share that I'm getting married.
We just put down the paws on the venue and brought my dress law. I didn't end up
picking this one but I thought it looked nice.
Congratulations to her.
It's crazy that to fucking put a random Democratic Party staffer on blast like this
But that is the world we live in
Did Jeff or Elon shock their dogs, I mean
I mean, they're billionaires, I don't know if they've shocked their dogs, I feel like
they've probably done way worse things than what you suspect I've done, if that's your
accusation.
You know, you're defending billionaires, buddy.
Like, do you know how many fucking Amazon employees have died on the job?
I know you're trying to yeah, that is when they're not pissing in fucking bottles
What is this blue sky release the weirdest social media site ever created it's like the most toxic liberals built themselves a prison and then locked themselves
Open it and now have ten rides a day. Why would you do that?
that?
Labour UK Reddit defending you? Labour Reddit, Jewish groups call on UK to bar dangerous Sampai
government anti-Semitic attacks? Are they the same groups that welcome reformed to the
anti-Semitism rally? Yes, and they've welcomed in far pun intended more dodgy characters
than just reform and forage.
Labor Friends of Israel run the party, they fund Kier and all the cabinet, they could
get your visa yoinked.
I mean, if they do that, they do that.
What are you gonna do, man?
We just gotta fucking take it one day at a time, you know?
It sucks.
But this is my life now, unfortunately.
And in Deck are like a big fucking deal on British telephonomies.
If they say they'll drum out cause you're going, which they might if media and parliament
talk about it enough, the event will 100% cancel your appearance for them.
It's also worth mentioning that a majority of the front bench in Cabinet are members
a Labour Friends of Israel. Yeah, it's not like I get paid to do this stuff, you know.
I'm doing this for my UK audience, right? I'm going out there to see people at Oxford Union
and I'm going out there specifically for my UK audience. It sucks for them.
Like if I'm not allowed entry into the country, it's not going to, you know, destroy my life
in any way.
It sucks, you know.
If they cancel, they cancel, South by Southwest always loses.
No, no, no.
I'm saying South by Southwest cancelling doesn't even mean anything.
There's a bunch of other stuff that I'm doing there as well.
But what I meant was, what I'm worried about is not South Africa cancelling, what I'm
worried about is the UK not allowing me entry into the country.
And yeah, I already have a visa.
There's also another event that I'm doing with Janus Verifakis.
There's also on top of that another, I'm doing Oxford Union, Janus Verifakis.
I'm going to meet it was at Kulanski as well.
Wouldn't you know beforehand if you get banned?
Yeah, I think they would probably establish the ban beforehand.
I feel like it'd be crazy if they just like fucking deported me after,
you know, I, I get to the UK.
That'd be really fucked up.
If they deport you, you can't come back for like 10 years, what are you going to do?
Our admin would do that less likely in the UK.
Yeah, like the UK is interesting because on the one hand, they have like ridiculous speech restrictions, especially on what you can and can't say around the issue of Israel, right?
But then also at the same time, they're not as like, I guess they're not as egregious.
Can't Big Mum Donnie give you asylum? Dude, I'm gonna fucking lose my mind. What the fuck is...
What is Zora Mum Donnie able to do in the United Kingdom? Like, what do you think Zora Mum Donnie can do about the UK? Actually...
This is the funniest... It's becoming a meme at this point in this community. Anytime something happens, they're like, well, what about Zora Mum Donnie?
Like motherfuckers act like he's the mayor of America and the rest of the world
Starmer isn't gonna do anything right now and he's as he's a lame duck with Burnham about to come in you'll be fine king
Yeah, they're speaking about the subpoena, but it's equally stupid like he's a king.
Yeah.
Yeah, Zora Mamdani's gonna fucking combat the treasury in the Department of Justice.
Chatty, do you think a hardline communist like Kier Stahlin is gonna listen to a live
like Mamdani?
Thank you.
That's what I was saying.
I have it on good authority that Keir Stalin has called Zoran Mumdani a social fascist who has betrayed the revolutionary cause and that he is disgusted with the way that Zoran Mumdani has advanced the period of destalinization.
He feels like Stalin's contributions to Marxist theory, his contributions to
revolutionary praxis should have been taken note of and should have remained
in the books and that destalinization has created an environment of
counter-revolutionary activity and behavior that will inevitably lead to
the fall of the USSR. That's what Kier Stahlin said about Zoramum Dhani.
I heard him say it. Yeah. Yeah, I was there.
Scoop, US military carries out new strikes in Iran this time against the military side
to pose a threat to US force and commercial trafficking the share of hormones the US official
tells Reuters.
US military has also intercepted drones being watched from Iran today.
Story coming.
Yeah, this is such a funny way to go about it where America is just like, I'm not hitting
you.
I'm not hitting you, you know?
But then is hitting Iran and it's funny because it's like, is the war back on?
Is it not?
It's interesting because like they've realized, America's realized that if they do these kind
of like limited strikes on Iranian soil, then Iran just won't like reinstigate or reestablish
the war.
They won't go like, oh, the war's back on.
They're literally forcing Iran to play the role of stability stabilizer in this initiative.
And if they don't re-establish deterrence, if they do not re-establish deterrence militarily,
America's only going to keep doing this over and over again.
Take fucking potshots.
Israel's going to keep blowing up tire and all these other places.
earlier today, issued an evacuation order. You'll never guess who made an
appearance yet. Cheese girl did I know. I did see this. The girl who is addicted to
cheese. Wait, is that her?
Is she still addicted to cheese? I don't know.
Arab Gulf states want the war over, Safir Alif said. They do not want resumption. They will not give basing and overflight access.
Rights to US to resume strikes.
They have no say in this.
in this. That's what I think. Critical support. U.S. Justice Department launches criminal investigation
into Trump accuser, E.G. and Carol. Oh my God. Oh my fucking God, dude. Jesus Christ.
What are we doing, brother? What are we doing, brother? It is completely out of control.
this administration is doing. Please, someone needs to fucking restrain this goddamn criminal
administration.
If America became a dictatorship, it would probably be because of people like Assam Piker.
I'm originally from Venezuela. I say that if people like Assam Piker, like Zahram Amdani
or Ihan Omar had been born in Caracas instead, it would be part of the Maduro regime.
What? I don't care about the fucking Manhattan Institute dickhead from Venezuela coming into
GBN.
After Tyler struggled by victims and finally an hour TV documented this week, Selma, South
of Jerusalem admit their leaders have long created child pornography by filming.
They gang rape kids in the community no longer in denial.
Gush Etzion admits to ritual abuse.
What the fuck?
What the fuck?
What?
Bro, what goes on in Israel, man?
What goes on?
I mean, I guess it's not that different from like other religious,
fundamentalist enclaves when you really think about it, because like,
this is the type of shit that's happening behind closed doors
in like, fundy areas in America too. It's just the problem is Israel being a, a, a,
being an ethno state that is, is basically turning slowly but surely into a theocratic
ethno state. It's just happening more and more. It's becoming more and more common place,
I guess. Yeah, I mean, that's America's future too, for the record. And some might even say
it's America's current. Um, but, um, no, I, I'm not trying to know us pedophilia, man.
What the fuck are you talking about? It's a I'm saying that it's unfortunately more commonplace than you would think
You understand
Israel is a fucking ethno-state and
It's unlimited appetite for death and destruction of the Palestinians has created this environment where more and more radical elements more and more
fundamentalist elements have actually
Taken a stronger foothold in Israeli society in Israeli politics in the Knesset in the governing coalition that Benjamin Netanyahu created in design
This is how the far right seizes more power and more control and
With that there are cultural changes that take place
heinous crimes
heinous instances of violence become more commonplace.
This is how a society turns into a Nazi society.
Israel is already there.
America is also kind of there in, I mean, you know, it's region-specific to a certain degree,
but that's what we're bouldering towards, okay?
That is what we're bouldering towards.
That is what America would look like as well.
It was a fucking Christian nationalist state in the way that many of these fucking dipshit
fascists in America want to design American society.
In some ways, obviously, Western fascism taught Israel everything it knows, but now Israel
has accelerated beyond the version of Western fascism that exists in America, and America
is basically following closely behind Israel.
That is where we're at.
Friends of the show, Uniting.
It's an itch somewhere in the back of your brain
that something wasn't right
and you just caved to the worst impulses.
Yeah, there were moments where I was pushing back on it,
especially in private,
because I worked a lot with high-erasure clips at TikTok
and I was like, you know, you can't.
That's her deal.
She's, you know, she's just stupid.
Like she's genuinely like a cerebral speed bump.
There's just not a whole lot going on up there.
And so I give her a little bit of grace
because she's just so dumb.
I have more ire for the elected members.
Yeah, yeah.
Who push her content.
But they're always an itch somewhere.
Yeah, I like the cerebral speed bump is a banger, is a bar.
I've been hearing her deploy that a lot.
New Darly's a justice Dems ad just dropped. Oh, yeah
After recruiting Darly's a for Darly's for New York to challenge Adriana Espaya and New York 13
Justice Dems put 250 K behind this ad bringing their total spent close to 400 K reposting because I forgot to include the video last
No, it's I had says he's for our community, but check the fine
Espaya said he trust Donald Trump to follow the law trust Trump
Espaya backs Trump's agenda and gets big money from Trump donors, ice contractors, APAC, and developers.
We can't afford Espaya. We need Darialisa Avila Chevalier.
Darie is one of us, reuniting families, fight to abolish ice standard to bad landlords, and make life more affordable again.
Darialisa, for future, we can afford.
Yeah, but I don't understand this need you get to immediately point out that also the religious and ethnic groups do this too by the way
Not only Israelis do not think it desingularizes and dilutes the focus
Do you think that I as an American citizen?
Feel like it's more productive to also use the warning sign of a fucking fundamentalist right-wing fascist society
Taking root here in my own fucking backyard as well
Especially considering that I spent a good deal of time talking about Israel in particular
directionally and directly interfering and subverting American democracy, it's
good to foment as much contempt as possible for them, I feel like, I don't
know, buddy, I'm about to be fucking banned from entering the United Kingdom
for doing the maximum amount of contempt towards Israeli society, Israel in
general, the Israeli government, Israeli culture, Zionism as the underpinning
ideology that has developed the nation-state of Israel that is an apartheid state that's doing
fucking genocide. I do a sufficient amount of fomenting, okay? Shut the fuck up. I know what
you're trying to get out of this conversation, okay? It's the most annoying tendency that I hear
from people who I don't know what they're doing. Like, he's not cliff farming. No, that is a real
ass fucking third worldist, like, who genuinely is like, no, every time you talk about Israel,
You have to say Jews, okay. There is a real new school of thought that just straight up goes.
You have to be like at least somewhat anti-Semitic in the way that you conduct this analysis.
Otherwise, you're not a fucking real one. I'm sick and tired of it, dude. Shut the fuck up.
And if you don't do that, you're a Jewish exceptionalist. If you don't do that,
you're a Jewish supremacist. Shut the fuck up, okay?
It's unbelievably fucking frustrating. I have to deal with this shit. Jesus Christ. Yeah, Maureen Galindo thought
Some of your brains are fucking broken, buddy. Okay, have moral conviction
Have your fucking opinions and stand by those principles. That's what I do. Okay
In my worldview, I have never in a million years doesn't matter if it's Jews Muslims Christians doesn't fucking matter at all
I've never fucking a cave to this notion that there is a a
Monolithic understanding of an entire people. Okay
Fuck
It's so fucking annoying because it's the other side of the same coin that Jonathan Greenblatt operates on
Nick Flentes and Jonathan Greenblatt both believe the exact same things you understand that right?
But the exact same things, they both say Israel's the Jewish state and all Jews care about is Israel.
And if you shit on Israel, you're anti-Semitic. If you criticize Israel, you're anti-Semitic.
The only key difference is Jonathan Grimblatt thinks that's a bad thing. Nick Flentes thinks that's a good thing.
Okay, being anti-Semitic, that is.
I don't operate with this fucking standard
I'm I'm literally the the last Japanese fascist soldier of fighting
Long after World War two has ended on the issue of like
Standing so Jews can't be bad people. Did I fucking say that? What are you stupid?
What the fuck what is happening bro every time every day
A big chunk of the day, the moment that I start responding to some fucking dumb fuck chatter,
there is like 11 other chatters that are like, well, you didn't say this thing,
but I'm gonna actually try to slam this fucking idiotic take in your mouth.
The fuck do you mean? So juice can't be bad, people? Is that what I said?
That, did that come out of my fucking mouth?
Anyway.
Do you think the average person will go along with this continue to go on is real call itself a Jewish state?
Yes, but it doesn't matter when have I actually taken a fucking position just because it's popular or conceded on something just because it's fucking popular.
I don't do that my starting position as an anti-zionist was the unbelievably unpopular position a fucking decade ago
Okay, but that didn't stop me from advancing
That thought over and over again and defending it over and over again in spite of the fucking barrage of
smears that you would receive
Do you understand
Same with, look, I'm a fucking, I'm an American anti-imperialist. Okay? I'm an anti-imperialist.
I'm a socialist. These concepts, when I first started my media career, were not exactly as popular
as they are now. And one can even go so far as to say, even now they're not, you know, peak popularity.
But I do it anyway. Why? Because I believe in it.
You can say many things about me, but I'm very hard-headed, very stubborn, and I will
always tell you how I feel, always tell you what I think.
I'm transparent to a motherfucking fault. So no.
This is one of the conversations I want to have with Norm Finkelstein too, because he's
like getting belasted by people, a dude who's like sacrifices his whole fucking life, to
be one of the most consequential chroniclers of the plight of the Palestinians.
And now people are mad at him because he was questioning whether or not Tucker Carlson
and Candace Owens are sincere in their anti-Zionist advocacy.
were going so far as to even say things like, oh, um, it's crazy cause Norm Finkelstein doesn't
defend Hamas.
The fuck are you talking about literally during October 7 while it was happening?
Norm Finkelstein wrote an article famously comparing what was taking shape in Gaza and
in Israel in the Gaza envelope to the Nat Turner rebellion, refusing to condemn it.
You're insane.
You're literally insane.
Tucker Carlson slut shamed a candy.
I don't take his advocacy as genuine.
That's very funny.
I've had my differences in opinion with Norm Finkelstein in the past.
Like for example, I've always been an advocate for BDS.
He at a certain point in time was actually an opponent of BDS.
Okay.
He had his own reasons.
I disagree with it, but it didn't matter.
I'd never, I never, uh, uh, took that comradely disagreement to imply that he is
somehow insincere in his work or insincere in his advocacy.
Okay, because there's a lot of trust that was established there. You understand?
There is no such established trust with the likes of Tucker Carlson. So if you were to present
two people in front of me and to say who would you trust more on this issue?
Norm Finkelstein or Tucker Carlson or Glendis Owens. I feel like, did you fucking insane? Get the fuck out of here.
It's so strange, man.
What is this waving the white flag exposing the grift the bird man with another asmengold
video oh my god this guy's bangers after bangers dude where'd this guy come from I love this
guy man holy shit Jewish exceptionalism is a real thing
Western media in my opinion, but they want you to be performatively anti-Semitic or something,
Lamount, it's crazy, like lying about every single Jewish person being pro-Israelism practices,
you're just deluding yourself, yeah. Yeah, and that's the irony, I do talk about Jewish exceptionalism.
First of all, many of these motherfuckers who chirp are white Christians in the United States of
America, okay? Many of the motherfuckers who chirp about this shit aren't even fucking Muslim, so
they don't even have that additional cross, there's the additional scrutiny that fucking American
Muslims have to withstand with regular frequency in order to get a goddamn word and edgewise.
So you don't even know that. I'm not even doing some standpoint epistemology here. I'm just telling
you like that sometimes tactics and methods might be a little bit different depending on how the
crowd is receiving you. Okay. Jesus Christ. In any case, I also do talk about Jewish exceptionalism
or I talk about the impact that Jewish organizations have, like I talk about the responsibility and
the blame that Jewish organizations have for literally constantly talking about how this is
unbelievably importantly. Israel is the most important thing for them and what they're teaching,
what they're teaching the rest of American society. But there's a difference between
what, what these institutions with these organizations are doing and like what the truth is, okay?
People are malleable.
People can change their fucking minds.
My expectation is always that no matter how fucking brain broken someone is, I have the
capacity or they have the capacity personally to go on their own fucking ideological journey
and change their perspective on issues that they hold near and dear to themselves.
I mean, you need a, no, um, fork, just a fork.
You
Thank you
I don't know. I just find it real fucking annoying
Have you ever considered eating popcorn on stream, I don't even know what that means
Yeah, and it's funny because the very same people that fucking will turn around and talk about how Tucker Carlson is awesome or whatever
Or is like the best champion
Um, but then like, we'll question Norm Finkelstein's, uh, uh, authority on this issue, uh, are,
they never apply the same standard to the likes of Norm Finkelstein.
The ones that they apply to me, or not Norm Finkelstein, sorry, they never apply the same
standard as the Tucker Carlson.
The expectation is never from Tucker Carlson to like defend the Palestinian resistance,
refusing to condemn Hamas or anything like that.
It's always just like whatever he gives you, you take and you go, oh my God, it's so good.
God. Thank God. Tucker Carlson is our most important fucking ally. It's so strange.
At least I'm more consistent with my application here.
Yeah, some of you motherfuckers do actually fall for a white guy saying, you
know, half the shit that others are saying.
Or not even that, but it's also because Norm is Jewish, he's white, you know?
So Norm saying that is supposed to be the most consequential thing, right?
However, Norm has been saying it, so you're bored of it.
Tucker is new.
So it's more based.
More valuable.
Stop shaking the Gerga. I will never stop.
Tucker's more entertaining.
Okay, go watch his ass then, bro.
Before you know it, you'll be fucking talking about the great replacement.
And how Jews have opened up unlimited migration into the fucking from the third world into the first world and ruining American civilization.
You know?
Is there a reason why Norm is against BDS?
I don't even think he's against BDS any longer.
He used to be.
opinions change.
I think his take was literally like, the goals BDS are unrealistic, like the complete
abolition of the apartheid is unrealistic or something. I forget what it was, but he had like a
norm is the ultimate minor disagreements are, you know, minor disagreements are existential crises
guy, okay? He puts his mind out, he sets his mind to something and he's unbelievably stubborn,
Even though he is open sometimes, to receiving new information, he'll hold on to that perspective
for a very long time.
Now, of course, that's what made him such an important figure in Prophecy and Advocacy
in the West.
He's transphobic piece of shit. I don't even think he's any he's transphobic any longer.
I think he apologized for it.
I predicted Zach was too cowardly to respond to the video where he got thoroughly debunked
again. He once again pulls the excuse that the video is too long, while no life streaming
for what amounts to a full work day at a normal job. It's like, what the fuck are you even
reacting to on stream if not a person bitch slapping you for the length of the first Shrek
film? You have nothing else to do. You do nothing else but talk about people on stream.
Your excuses may work on those that follow you, but for everyone else, it's looking like
you're afraid of acknowledging criticism. You claim to farm people for content, but
apparently you're too scared to build the barn. I guess you're afraid of people that
will actually farm you back. Anyway, he basically skims through the video, which is definitely
how you respond to someone criticizing you. Very honest. Not scared of what's being said
at all. But even him skimming through the video has produced hilarious results and that's
That's what we're going to take a look at in today's episode of The Infinite Regress.
Take it away, Mr. Hoyt.
Birdman posted this?
No.
Birdman posted again?
Destroying Asmongold for 1.5 hours.
Well, he took my advice.
I'm not gonna sit around and react to a fucking video.
It's an hour and a half long.
I'm sorry.
What?
Your thoughts and opinions have precisely zero effect on my video making process.
You can respond, or you can hide, cope, and send your audience at me.
None of that will affect me or how I decide to respond.
As you can see, I am still here, standing on all ten toes, ready to bitch slap you again.
I said in that video that I am aware that you're too chicken shit to actually respond
to the whole thing, which is why it doesn't feature the start and stop buttons, not that
you would abide by them anyway. But that doesn't mean everyone else is afraid to watch the
video, Zack. It's called exposing the grift, after all. And as such, everyone else saw
me beat you into submission, and everyone else will use my arguments against your lies
and bad talking points when you predictably keep making them. And everyone else will
recognize that you can't handle being dunked on point by point and have to rely on others
to do your dirty work because you're too stupid and or cowardly to do it yourself.
Hoho, I can put you in a blinder or a short video or a long one.
It makes no difference to me.
But at Warcraft Raiden still had a tangible hairline.
I have videos-
Just crazy pole, huh?
Just randomly click the point of video.
So as I said, he's just skimming through the video, which makes very little sense.
My assumption is that since his audience have been melting down over the video, and yes,
they have, he had no choice but to address it, and this is his roundabout way of doing
that.
A white flag, in other words.
Do you notice how these numbers don't add up to 100?
Right, because this is acceptance rate within a subgroup, not the um...
You can't read the graph.
They add up.
Oh my god.
I think Zach believes his theatrics are fooling people, which is cute, but remember he's
skimming through my video, a video where I thoroughly explain that graph, provide the
source for that graph, and even show the students actual school choices from 2014, a time period
that graph covers.
No, it's Zach that can't read that graph, as he will demonstrate for us in a few seconds.
school acceptance rates in the United States from 2013 to 2016. If you had a score of a,
I guess, 24 to 26, if you were Asian, you had a 6% chance to get accepted. If you were black,
you had a 56% chance to get accepted. I want you guys to see this because this is how unbalanced
and how unfair it is. So this is a part of his original stream on Twitch that was not
included in the edited video that I responded to on YouTube and that's fortunate for him because
it would have been further evidence that he is really, really fucking stupid. As I explained in
my video, this grat- Okay. One of the things that you have to understand is that white supremacy is
cope. That's it. It's a way for people that are in the in-group that feel a sense of inferiority
to others to cope with this mythological reality that they construct where they actually have
genetic inferior, like they actually have genetic superiority over others that they've
determined are genetically inferior. That's what white supremacy is. No fucking confident
white guy is running around being like, you know what? I think entire races are actually
worse than mine. No, they have their own accomplishments and their own sense of self to exist in the
world without being unbelievably insecure. People who have tremendous crippling insecurities
are the ones that are often sucked away with this kind of rhetoric.
showing the acceptance rate within a subgroup. 6 plus 8 plus 31 plus 56 adds up to 101. Not
100. So clearly these groups are not competing with each other. It gets worse the higher
the MCAT scores go. 21 plus 29 plus 60 plus 81 is 191. And 58 plus 63 plus 83 plus 94
is 298. If these were the acceptance rates of these groups versus each other, the percentages
would add up to 100. They don't because these are acceptance rates within a subgroup, not
the chance you had to be accepted, as this moron said.
As I said in the other video, the acceptance rate for black students is higher because
Because there are less black students that apply.
There are more white and Asian applicants than black applicants.
All of a sudden this idiot doesn't understand per capita.
If a pool has 100,000 people and 10% are accepted, that's 10,000 people.
If pool B has 5,000 people and 20% are accepted, that's 1,000 people.
If pool C has 100 people and 100% are accepted, well that's 100 people.
Percentages tell you next to nothing.
matters are the actual numbers.
Zach is looking at the percentages and not the actual number of applicants accepted.
In 2014, there were 89 black applicants at Howard University, the medical school that
had the most black applicants.
That same year, UCLA had over 400 Asian applicants, and UCLA was the school with the most Asian
applicants.
Since we know the percentage of those accepted, all you have to do is plug in the numbers,
and for the sake of clarity, we'll use the numbers for the most qualified students, aka
those with MCAT scores of at least 30 as per the graph.
This means in 2014, UCLA accepted roughly 250 Asian students,
and Howard accepted 84 Black students.
Now, these numbers are not going to be exact for two reasons.
The first is that the graph Zack is using
is for a range of four years.
The numbers will fluctuate year to year,
and these percentages may be higher or lower each year.
These are averages.
The second reason is that the graph represents
all medical schools.
So Howard could have only accepted 50 black students that year.
And this is really basic shit, I know, but you have to remember we're in a real crisis
of stupidity, especially championed by and shepherded by conservatives.
So you have to do stuff like this.
I mean, look at 90% of the commentary around like this subpoena that I supposedly was.
receiving from the government and like an investigation, like it's all people who
are too dumb to recognize that I'm not like leaking new information or
anything like that, but they think it's new information. So they think that there
is like an alternative story. They're literally following an
alternative universe story and conservatives do this all the time. I
I don't think Asmongold looked at these numbers and genuinely thought, oh, this is actually
false, or this is actually lying with numbers.
He's just too stupid.
He's just too stupid to cover him what he's looking at, but he doesn't realize that given
that there are far less applicants in that pool, there's a higher percentage of black
applicants that actually get in this school. He's just looking at it and thinking across
the board without analyzing the information. He's thinking like, oh, no, it's just because
black people get a leg up. That's affirmative action.
Other schools made up the difference to give us the average we see on Zach's graph. Again,
you're talking about averages over a four-year span, so the numbers I've given you may be
slightly higher or lower depending on these factors. If I were to show black applicants
for the four years of Zach's graph at Howard University specifically, it would be 93 students
in 2013, 89 students in 2014, 101 students in 2015, and 111 students in 2016, for a total
of 394 black applicants in the time span of Zach's graph. This is literally less than
the number of Asian applicants UCLA had in a single year. But, if we are assuming that
all of these cohorts were the most qualified, we have an estimated 370 black students accepted
by Howard University over four years. Just for the sake of being thorough, in 2013 UCLA
had 405 Asian applicants, in 2014 there were 430, in 2015 there were 475, and in 2016 there
were 557 for a total of 1867 Asian applicants. If we assume they were the most qualified,
this equates to an estimated 1,083 Asian applicants that were accepted to UCLA over four years.
Lower percentage, significantly higher number of students. This is all on top of the fact
that Asian and Black medical students are applying to completely different schools.
So the fact that Howard accepted 94% of black applicants has no effect on Asian students
because Asian medical students don't apply to Howard University.
After covering his son for four hours straight today, Asmigold accused his son of staying
in his dark room all day and spreading hateful rhetoric, just incredible projection.
So you like full-time call Zach Stubin now and finally you see this, he's not some smart
guy pretending to be dumb.
never was. Wait, what? No, I've been saying he's fucking stupid for a long ass time, what?
He's definitely smarter than he lets on. He definitely dumps himself down, but he's not
exactly an intelligent guy by any means. At most, he's smart enough to farm people
even dumber than himself, right?
I don't think that they even believe this violence or this level of like aggression is like actually a good thing. I think they just sit in their dark room by themselves or they sit in their room by themselves. And they just sit in their dark room by themselves or they just sit in their dark room by themselves.
a room by themselves and they just get gassed up by their chat and they just get more and
more emotionally elevated and then they just say crazy stuff.
I want capital punishment to be on the menu and if that's the case, I want public executions,
I want to have people get rounded up, I want to have these ICE protesters who are standing
in front of these cars from the federal agents, I want to see them run over, I want to see
the entire thing and then as soon as they get run over, I want to see them handcuffed
to their fucking hospital bed because after that they're being sent to a work camp. That's
what I want to see happen. Dude. Oh, is it because the Gropers are coming
after me? They did the clip copy again. Every couple of months they put a clip copy out there
of like, Hassan is actually a deeply violent guy. You should actually ban him off of every
platform possible. That's been making the rounds. It's the, it's the, um, let the, let
the streets flow red with capitalist blood. Clip copy. Was that what he, is that what
he was watching? Do you think he's so stupid that he forgets that he's watched that a million
times over? Or do you think he has to fake making it seem like he's watching it for the
the first time every single time you watch
is the same clip compilation.
It's like, yeah, yeah, not base.
I
He went after Stavi to
Huh, I hate these fucking people they're parasites these people are not your allies
They are not the same as us. They come from an inferior culture like I don't even think they believe half this shit
I
Think they just crash out because they're there you know, they're getting gassed up though
I gotta keep going I keep going I keep going Jews are running society women need to shut the fuck up
Blacks need to be imprisoned for the most part
Mm-hmm, and we would live in paradise. It's that's man
Right, I'm just saying like that's what I think it's happening
I mean, he's definitely gotten more and more unhinged in his rhetoric or Hassan needs to go to jail. This was Nick last month.
As we go left at Nick when saying his son probably should be put in a prison camp. Why is he, why is it that he's the only person who's saying this finally?
Yeah, I mean, it's nothing, it's nothing, he's an insecure little boy.
He recognizes that his entire like newfound fame is associated with Donald Trump.
So the more Donald Trump's popularity goes away, the less popular he will become.
And eventually he'll either have to pull out of this grift entirely and go back to talking
about titties in video games. Or he'll just keep chirping to a smaller and smaller audience.
But I think right now he's flailing a little bit. He's like, he sees a lot of attention
my way. And he wants to use that to farm as much outrage as possible. And he's getting
more aggressive in his commentary. He's losing viewers lower some months. Yeah. Yeah, he's
desperately upping the ante, which is ironic because that's like kind of what he's blaming,
kind of saying what I'm doing here, which is not the case at all. If anything, I moderate
more as time goes on. But.
Didn't he secriticize. Israel's influence on America.
And now he's defending Israel. Yes, he doesn't have any fucking real world view. Like look, I hate Nick Fuentes. I think he is a cancerous force on American politics and just international politics in general. He doesn't have that kind of motion, but like that ideology is, is disgusting.
Alright, he's a neo-nazi
But at least he has an ideology as we go doesn't as we'll just like goes along with whatever the most like reactionary person in his immediate
vicinity is saying in a way
That's not dissimilar to Joe Rogan, right? He's like very agreeable, but he's only agreeable to the far right
And I know because I'm one of that as Miguel explains that he sees himself as a mainstream ally directing his audience to people like Nick
went as yeah i mean it's really funny that like this guy is literally working
with the ideal to try to get me bad
and the ideal is never even fucking
uh... the ideal is never even turn around like this guy's fucking it's
medic
well do you not get the platform through all this
i simply uh... i
i am a very
uh... pragmatic person
i have no problems not saying things or not doing something if i feel like it
won't be advantageous for me
So I just simply don't say things that I think will get me in trouble.
This is also part of the reason why I said, like, eventually this
drift is going to, uh, this group is going to die out.
Right.
It has a longer lifeline than other griffs though, because like I said,
he is farming the dumbest people.
Like genuinely the dumbest people in not just American society, but
just like around the world.
Right wingers
Sorry to say this, but they're fucking stupid. Okay, it doesn't mean that like leftist can't be stupid
I call myself stupid as well, but by and large
In order to be reactionary you have to be kind of dumb
right
like if you can
Establish a worldview where you think like entire races or entire ethnicities are actually inferior to you like this is a very
stupid thing to think
and
Stupid people are easy to sell to
They don't question
uh, your hypocrisy they don't question whether or not you have any convictions
And therefore what asman gold turns around
And on one day says like, uh, you know, oh, I don't know if we should like stop giving money to israel
and then the next day is like
championing nicolas fuentes and and talking about how bastia is for like denying the holocaust or whatever
People in his audience don't turn around and go wait a minute what the fuck like so what you're a pro israelis
Nick Fuentes supporter, like what's going on? What do you mean?
So yeah, as long as grift is when you don't believe it, no, that's why I'm saying it is a
grift. There are certain fundamentals he does believe, right? He is reactionary for sure,
but a lot of the stuff he says he doesn't give a shit about at all. Are you kidding me?
That's precisely the reason why back in the day when he was much more charitable to me,
me, which was surprising. For the longest time, Asmongole was very charitable to me.
And as a charitable commentator, he would constantly defend certain things. He'd be
like, yeah, you guys are actually being ridiculous about the American Deserter 9-11 thing. Like,
90% of his commentary now about all the old shit that I've said, he has defended in the
past. Okay? But now he knows that the audience is constantly demanding more like, focus on
Contents he doesn't give a shit. He's just like, yeah, fuck him. He's a terrorist. He's bad
That's all this is
These are his kind of family use us on against example who he's more like trying to come across like the Pope
everyone should listen to me
whereas
Asma gold is the wacky homeless guy on the side of the road, you know holding the mic holding the Bible and
and just screaming his interpretation of the Bible.
Sendane said his great, great, great grandmother
was a school teacher in Mexico, and she came here properly.
So she's a good immigrant.
But all these bad immigrants, they're the problem.
They're the ones causing our world to get worse.
There's a reason why the brain image
of new political perspective pipeline
is exclusively in one direction,
not a lot of strokes transforming races
in the universal rights loving leftist.
That's true.
Yeah.
When you
when you actually have like like an episode or
Go through like some kind of severe bout of mental illness or something like that
This is Steven Azark I interviewed as my goals biggest fans. Oh, I kind of want to watch this now
Steven is a reporter
But anyway, as I was saying
There's a reason why like no one goes through like a mental health episode like Kanye West did and then becomes like a fucking
Marxist-Leninist on the other side of it, right?
The content at Seven Likes, what are we doing? 4.7k likes? Yeah, I know Steven. Steven is a fucking reporter.
He's actually, he's actually an intelligent person covering something that he knows very well.
Um, oh my god.
I'm going to stab myself
in a video game with a fucking fork and a knife in the eye socket and plug my eye hole out in
In that video game that I'm playing in a scary horrible video game a horrifying horror game
Shatters
When I entertain
Certain types of content that have less views. There is perhaps a reason for it, right?
Perhaps you don't have to backseat produce my stream
Perhaps sometimes it's better for you to shut the fuck up and
watch
This is one of those moments and until it's okay to say them
That's literally it. You're a good boy. Yeah, I like Nick doesn't do that Nick says exactly what he thinks and it's respectable
It is I don't have any any negative about it
But to me I view my role as being a more mainstream
mean, ally towards this stuff. Okay. There's something very funny about
Asmongold thinking that he's in any way, shape or form mainstream. Like that's, that's,
that's pretty funny. I, okay, respect. You got me on this one. Yeah. Famously mainstream
Asmongold without necessarily spearheading any sort of like real controversial change
because I can't really do that. It would compromise my position. That's the reason I'm a funnel.
Yeah, I kind of do that's so funny. He's like, look, guys, I'm a neo nazi to like, trust me.
Uh, yeah, I'm a base neo nazi to yeah, but like, I'm just a funnel, right? I'm just like funneling
people to Nick Fuentes. Only streamed as well, folks should be concerned with as a shower.
or mainstream in Europe, Lamau, I don't even think he's fucking mainstream in Europe either.
Like are there people out there who are really invested in this kind of toxic politics? Absolutely,
there are. I just don't think he's genuinely like a mainstream figure in any way, shape,
or form. And not because like he's being bodied or anything like that. I'm not even saying
that. I'm just saying that like, first of all, if he was truly a mainstream figure,
probably would have a lot more attention on things that he's doing, right? And I would
go so far as say this about Nick Fuentes. I think Nick Fuentes is a more mainstream figure
than Asman Gold is, right? So that's, that's my first point. The second point is, when
you look at Nick Fuentes and his interceptions or his interventions in American politics,
and then you compare them to my interventions in American politics, you very quickly realize
that regardless of Nick Fuentes's, you know, ecosystem of content, like, or mass appeal,
I guess, on the internet, at least, analytics, analytics wise, like, I think Asimov Gold obviously
clears Nick Fuentes and certainly myself as well. But in the real world, as far as like,
we're talking about real world impact, it's not even close. I think that's part of the
reason why he's so fucking sad all the time and so angry all the time and and cries about
me all the time on a show. And one of the things that they have started chirping about
when there's in the Gropor army is this false notion that they think that there's like 28
million Gropors and the guy saw that on Twitter because you know Twitter serves me all this
Nazi shit. And it's just incredible cope, right? It is unbelievable cope. Like these
guys genuinely think there are like hidden neo-Nazi groipers everywhere, right? And there
are some. And certainly some of them have actually reached positions of power. We know
that the issue for Nick Fuentes and the like is that when they do reach a position of power,
very quickly disavow everything that they did in the past. Whereas, when we run candidates,
they're openly socialist. Right? Like, who is Nick Fuentes' candidates? James Fishback?
That's your guy, that's the guy that's doing a lot of impact.
Because the reality of the matter is, Nick Fuentes running around and trying to take
ownership over like Trump, Trumpism, or fucking Ken Paxton, for example, would be the equivalent
of me being like, yeah, you know who my guy is, Michael Bennett.
Yeah, it's awesome.
Like the difference ideologically between me and Michael Bennett is the same distance
between Nick Fuentes and like any number of different Republican candidates that he says
he's on board with, whereas the distance ideologically between me and Zoram Mammadani is nothing,
right?
I mean, it's not nothing, but it's almost nothing, right?
There are a lot more people with my politics out there organizing, with our politics out
they're organizing and and winning races, then there are with Nick Fuentes' politics
running around trying to organize or even winning races. I know this will probably
get clipped and we'll get posted on a show and I'll fucking cry about this and be like,
oh dude, I'm doing warfare against you. Yeah, when he's done, when he's done crying
about Sneeko, maybe he'll engage in warfare against me as well. But the reality of the
matter is, regardless of how hard you bought on rumble, regardless of how much you have
like clip farmers that are constantly posting your clips and shit like that, there is a
limitation to your ideology. Most people find Nazi politics to be repulsive, even if the
the Republican Party does actually channel some of the white supremacist aspects,
white supremacist qualities.
But at the end of the day, I don't think you're gonna be able to put out
strong grouper candidates and have them actually achieve any sort of electoral
success.
Yeah, but if he just calls himself a base civic fascist, he can claim blue dog dams,
I guess.
Yeah.
There's also the other element here.
And this probably hurts to acknowledge for someone whose primary focus is to be as edgy as possible,
so edgy that he'll try to sell like Jeffrey Epstein hoodies and things like that.
But he's not seen as like a serious threat. I know Nick Quintess will turn around and say,
I got debanked. I did January 6, all this stuff. But yeah, again, you latched on to a mainstream
movement for a slave to Israel, Donald Trump, who certainly was still enslaved to Zionism
in his first term.
And you, like the silly little boy you are, went out to do an insurrection, tried to
do an insurrection.
It was one of the stupidest events in American history, okay?
You tried to tag on.
You got punished for it.
But at the end of the day, the reason why these institutions don't treat you as a serious
threat is because you aren't one.
It's not because you have many allies inside in the way that you present it as, because
you're just not a significant threat to the established hierarchy.
There are more intelligent and more competent versions of you that are not stupid enough
to say some of the things that you're saying, Tucker Carlson being one of them, right? That's it.
And as far as Asim and Gold goes, I mean, he's nothing. He's utterly irrelevant.
But yeah, I firmly believe that I think white supremacist ideals, maybe this is my least
woke quality to say, but white supremacist ideals are only palatable to broader sub-sex
of American society, as long as they're not like overt and out there, as long as they
are within the permission structure, the permissible bigotry. And Asmongold and Nikfantas
go far beyond that all the time. Wrong. Asmongold is turning Eastern European and reform Brits
in the MAGA? Yeah, I mean, it doesn't, yeah.
More and more Americans are genuinely organizing
in the political realm as self-identifying socialists,
but they're not necessarily doing so as self-identifying fascists.
You will say that's because, you know, there's
too many structural hurdles or limitations or whatever against fascist organizing in this country.
But I think deep down inside, you know the reality.
It would be like if I coped and said, well, Barack Obama's in favor of the Affordable Care Act,
and therefore, he's a socialist, actually, he's a socialist president.
You know, if anti-Semitism is your highest priority, right, exposing the international
jury is your highest priority, then attaching yourself to hitching your wagon to Donald Trump
is a very funny way to express that political ideology.
And even when we think about the theory of fascism, fascism works hand-in-hand with neoliberalism.
Some of the most successful implementations of neoliberalism by forces have been conducted
by fascists like Pinochet, right?
So that's it.
Yeah, like a funnel in a way. So that's the reason why I and I do most things that I do are like there's reasoning behind them
When needs to come of this is a son piker needs to go to jail
We don't need a White House ballroom. Fuck your ballroom. We need a son piker in jail. This is why we need a son piker in jail
And we need to run that up the flagpole. I want Stephen Miller to go to cash Patel and say put Hassan piker in jail blame it on
I like that as my goal is openly admitting that twitch like one of the largest twitch streamers on this platform is
openly openly saying that he's a funnel for nicolas fuentes an avowed white nationalist
neo nazi
That's very cool
Twitch good job twitch of course none of these fucking dumbass institutions that are supposed to be combating extremism
give a single shred of a solitary fuck about any of that, because they don't give a fuck
about neo-nazis. They give a fuck about anti-Zionists. They care about people turning on Israel.
And many of these guys don't give a shit. They constantly talk about how, oh, we'd be
fine with Israel if you just let us deport every brown person, please, like as though
they have any say in the matter, you know?
That's the difference.
That's it.
Uh-oh.
This was last month.
Uh-oh.
Uh-oh.
What?
It's people like him that are at fault.
It's people like him.
It's people like him, one of the number one live streamers in the country that's saying,
uh, here's how to build a bomb.
Yeah, this is also incredibly stupid like more this is dumber than expected for Nick Flentes to do this
This is the canary mission clip that he's like leaning into
He knows better. I
Guess he learned that lesson from Candace Owens his popularity and decided to dumb down his fucking
You know
understanding of certain things I
Never taught my audience how to build a bomb you fucking idiot. I would actually be in prison if I did that
Yeah, you might have missed that stream
This centrism fan account, I'll get this freak out of our country.
Oh, I'm talking about Mohamed Khalil, Dengel, Ms. Firmongering.
This is about a single door grocery store in Brooklyn, incredible.
Yeah, that's why Nick Fuentes finds himself in collaboration with the likes of Laura Loomer, Randy Fine, the ADL.
He's ultimately he is a reactionary through and through here's how to build a bomb and if you killed Rick Scott everyone would have free health care
That guy needs to go to jail like he needs to be
Denaturalized he needs to be sent out of the country fuck this guy
Like that's that is that is something you can serve up to us and then maybe these people will think twice
You take his citizenship this anti-American piece of shit
Take his citizenship, send him back to his beloved third world.
Dude, his his fake excitement is so cringe.
It's actually unbelievable.
I think his audience deserves that.
If they find this content to be palatable.
They are some of the most low IQ parasites I have ever fucking encountered.
Well, I don't really usually encounter them in the wild because they don't go outside, but I
Think his excitement is genuine. I don't think it is. I think he's faking it. He's like
Send him back to Cuba send him to Venezuela send him packing he loves Cuba so much send him why won't he say China?
There give him what he wants wish granted and then maybe these other champagne socialists will be a little more careful
When they try to again, I'm a class traitor
You, you're Mexican and a neo-nazi at the same time.
You don't live in that same universe.
Your grand design for society does not have a place for you.
Okay.
Both gay and Mexican and a neo-nazi.
You know, one of these things doesn't work with the other two.
You ran into one of them at Edinburgh, didn't you?
Oh yeah, there was that one guy with the fucking mask on
Yeah, remember that was huge. He was fucking shaking too
Why does Lily Eagle keep hating on you you both went to Cubans she's doing the weird pay me. I am more extreme
I don't know what that is. I don't know what you're talking about, but I sure they're more extreme than me
you know
Radicalize the next generation to kill. I'm not I'm not extreme old politicians
But that is what you need to do
But nobody cares
It's crazy this is the exact shit that I I'm
Ex exactly exact yep, there you go. Yep
Hate to tell you that dude brilliant commentary man. That's fucking awesome
This guy's got some deep insight dude
Sometimes I want to just like write down as a transcript what he has said and he literally has said nothing so far
It's just yeah, yeah based. Yeah
Awesome, nobody cares all that much about any of it. I know Trump doesn't care Vance doesn't care. That's right
Yeah, Trump and Vince don't care about
Prosecuting a fucking Twitch streamer
Yeah, even they are not that fucking online it seems. Well, until now.
Even Miller doesn't care. Lids of TikTok is a woman. She...
I mean, need I say more?
She's an idiot. She's a woman. You think she's sitting there thinking about politics?
She's thinking about how she looks when she pretends to think about politics.
She's caught up and I'm like a political influencer.
Oh my god.
These people don't, they don't care.
They don't care.
They're not thinking about it.
They're not thinking about these things.
And they're not even writing their own stuff.
This is why I'm going to ballroom, ballroom, ballroom.
Unless the ballroom is a concentration.
Man.
Man.
Unless the ballroom is a prison camp, we don't need a fucking ballroom.
We need a prison camp.
We need a reeducation ballroom or reeducation room unless the ballroom is super massive
so we can support thousands and thousands of ideological prisoners that we could send.
This is weakness.
You only talk like this when you recognize your weakness.
You can't make anything happen.
So you just sit there on your stream and you demand that more powerful institutions do
you're bidding for you. That's all this is. And the same goes for Asman Gold, right? That's
why he's increased the intensity in his commentary to be like, yeah, we should put their heads
on spikes, dude. It's like, it's just fucking cope. It's just pure fantasy cope. At the end
of the day, this fucking administration doesn't give a shit about you either. Okay. Doesn't
give a shit about your fans. Doesn't give a shit about anyone but themselves. And it's
It's not like the Democrats are all that different either, I mean, at least they have, at least
they do the niceties, at least they have the decency not to piss directly on your face
and then demand that you thank them for making it rain, right?
They go and they piss in the corner and then they blame it on someone else.
But this administration doesn't even hide that they are unbelievably corrupt.
That's why it's so funny where he's like, yeah, you can build a ballroom as long as
you make it into a concentration camp for my ideological enemies on the internet.
It's like, this is, this is a childlike way of viewing the world.
Okay.
You're a child.
You still have like this, this mental stuntedness.
Yeah.
all my enemies that were mean to me, feel pain, please.
Like, you don't, you don't get to fucking dictate what Trump does.
Trump doesn't give a shit about you.
What are you, Benjamin?
And now, no, you're not.
The increasing popularity, the sort of rhetoric to terrify everyone.
Yeah.
I mean, Elon Musk, Elon Musk is a powerful person.
So the fact that Asimov Gold does actually have Elon Musk's approval, well, that's,
a little bit damaging I'll be honest. Fox News tomorrow, Hasanabi mistakes right-wing
hero Nick Fuentes as a child and can't stop watching him.
Is it Stephen Miller just like that? No. No, Stephen Miller was fucking shitting on Thomas
Massey the other day. He's not the base Groyper hero that these dipshits have designed to
be either. None of these guys are. It is also very funny that this guy and his audience
are trying to present me as a fucking radical, a dangerous, radical terrorist. Yeah, go talk
to the average American about what my final worldview is, what that final product looks
like. You know, you say, Hey, communism, right? Communism, he's a communist and scary. You're
like don't you feel like it would be better if we just lived in a classless,
moneyless, stateless, borderless society?
I think most people would be like, you know, that sounds a little scary,
but if we could actually arrive at that conclusion, that wouldn't be that bad,
right? Probably better than the situation that we're in currently, you know,
a poor, a post scarcity utopia that we exist in,
or we can just collaborate with one another and expand on our unlimited
potential.
Nick Fuentes' final solution is purging the American state boundaries of those he has
declared lesser than black people, brown people, women are relegated to servile status like
brood mayors only there to breed. I don't think that's a really good future and I don't think that
But any of the people that you would directly ask if they considered it to be positive would
agree with you.
They'd probably fucking look at you like you're a crazy person.
I mean, Nick Fuentes himself doesn't have a future in that future that he's designing.
In there by bus.
Oh man.
Then, you know, we don't need that actually.
We need more detention centers.
a detention center. Yeah, but is it that he's the only person that's saying this? Nobody
else is saying this. This is satire right now. This I mean finally. And there's more
prisons. We're gonna need a place where we can put the and I'm kind of joking here.
I'm kind of joking a little bit print that.
Yeah.
You have to print that or it's liable.
I said I was joking.
It's a joke, guys.
You have to print that.
I'm kidding.
That was a joke.
Obviously.
He would never do that.
And you have to print that or else it's liable.
Obviously I'm joking when I say that.
And you have to say that I said that
because I'm joking.
However, however.
But.
what i'm the spirit of what i'm saying is true
which is that
this is a real crisis whatever you want to say there is a real crisis of
left-wing violence
I
Yep base
It's time for the jubb you were right about a group or making a new compilation of you by the way that an AF post reposted that video
Because that's where this cycle is coming from. Yeah, I'm always right about that shit
That's why I fucking stay. That's why I stay tapped in
And people saying you and him are the same yes, there is a crisis of stupidity in this country unfortunately and
It is non ideologically crosses ideological boundaries
Okay? A lot of people think, oh, the crisis of stupidity is just the right. No, the right
is very stupid. This is true. But there are plenty of fucking liberals who are stupid
as well. There are plenty of people who adorn the mask of being apolitical, who are just
like, oh, I'm above it all. I'm in the center. I think both sides are dumb. Oh, politics
is dumb, I don't care about politics. Well, politics cares about you. Or rather, politics
doesn't care about you. You know? Politics will crush you. And if you don't actually
fucking educate yourself and organize against it, you'll never know what is doing the crushing.
If you don't educate yourself appropriately, you'll think those who are crushing you, the
the force that are crushing you are the transgenders and the wokes or if you go all the way down
the right wing rabbit hole you think it's the Jews.
Nick Fuentes explains why he hates you.
Shep.
Debanking.
Hate speech legislation.
Weaponization of the DOJ.
You think going after Hassan Piker sets the precedent?
Yeah, I know.
He's gonna say this has been the precedent.
experience this his whole life and blah blah blah blah blah all this shit.
This is the precedent.
This has been the precedent.
By the way, this has been the precedent for decades.
And who set the precedent?
Because I seem to recall that it is and always has been the far left that has been advocating
for far-right anti-Semites, critics of Israel, fascists, nat-
It's interesting because I've been a critic of Israel for this entire time frame as well.
And until recently, I didn't actually receive this level of scrutiny because by and large,
I think they were actually actively targeting anti-Semitism. Now, we can talk about whether
whether or not that was appropriate, okay?
The end of the day, your worldview is not only repugnant,
not only toxic, but it is objectively violent
because again, my design in society
is not one where people have to die
or people have to be forcibly removed
from wherever they've lived their whole lives.
Yours is, yours requires that.
Yours doesn't exist without that.
that is the goal that you're moving towards.
And in some respects, the administration is already
leaning into that sort of stuff regardless.
Not because of you necessarily,
but because as economic conditions worsen,
it's much easier to just like fucking deport
a couple hundred thousand brown people
to offer red meat to dumb fucks like you and many others.
Now, obviously you're in a different predicament.
You're in a different situation
because you make money off of this,
off of your dumb ass fucking fans.
But those dumb ass fucking fans of yours, they're not better off when a hundred thousand Mexicans are deported.
As a matter of fact, they might even be worse off.
They just use the reactionary, they fan the reactionary flames
to distract the average working-class individual.
That's it.
Socialists to be debanked, censored, jailed, the rest of it.
Look at the experience of me and this show.
Think about Hassan Piker for a moment.
He is on Twitch right now.
Twitch is owned by Amazon.
He's on Twitter with a verified account.
He's on Instagram with a verified account.
He is on TikTok.
He is on YouTube.
He is on Spotify.
He is on all these services.
He has made millions of dollars over the years.
I feel like a certain point, his audience has to understand that this is, you know, just pure jealousy, right?
I feel like he is, he's, he's masquerading this as though he is presenting this as anything but envy, but it feels like it's just envy.
And I guess that's another similarity
that he shares with Epstein.
That's it.
Is any doing that you make money to Socialist Gotcha?
No, he gets into that kind of stuff, too.
He will use that as a easy remark to get the base excited.
He might even be smart enough to understand that it's not inconsistent.
Like I've said, I think I hate to even entertain this, but Nick Fuentes, unlike many of his
counterparts, has actually read books, at least a couple books.
And he does have an ideological worldview.
He has a goal that he's working towards.
Many of the other guys on the right, they don't do that.
They can't communicate.
They're not charismatic.
They're not funny.
And they're certainly not well read.
Okay.
So he's smarter than the commentary that he engages in sometimes when he says
shit like this.
I mean, he's like, oh, you're a socialist, but you're wealthy.
He's being honest when he says I'm an America hater, and I'm a subversive that needs to
be taken care of, that needs to be like cordoned off of society, thrown in jail.
Those are the things he does actually believe.
He has never, as far as I know, up until this point been subpoenaed.
Yeah.
His worldview, his point is your worldview is violent.
So why is he banned, but not you?
accept that he's delusional and you're not a Nazi exactly. But that was precisely what
I was talking about as well. That's my point. My point is, there's a reason why, regardless
of the Cold War, you can run around and say, I'm a socialist, but in the aftermath of World
War II, you can't say you're a Nazi. And the difference, of course, if you ask Nick, is
because international Jewry has rendered Nazism to be the ultimate thing that you can't actually
openly advocate for. That's what he will say. He'll point to the Holocaust studies as a department.
He'll talk about genocide scholarship and how much of an emphasis that has on the Holocaust.
He'll talk about how Jews are infiltrating Western society and that's how they made Nazism to be
this is ultimate dangerous fucking ideology. But the reality is, it is actually a fucking
unbelievably violent ideology. There is a difference between a alternative economic
organization of society like socialism is, and what socialism represents, to straight
up fascism. That's it. One is a fucking death cult.
He's never lost access to a big tech platform or a big tech service like PayPal or Stripe
or Uber, never lost access to the social platforms like YouTube or Instagram or Facebook.
In the meantime, literally everybody on the right has had all of that happen to them.
And I know because I'm one of them.
When right wing people went to Charlottesville and said, Jews will not replace us.
And there was a variety of people in attendance.
were immigration restrictionists? Yeah, I think part of the difference also is that
I follow the terms of service, whereas you don't. And when I actually do get in a heated
moment or whatever, I get banned. And oftentimes it's actually people like Nick Fuentes and
their fan base that try to spam reports to get me banned. And sometimes they actually
do reach a level of success with that. But ultimately, that's the reason, like there
are genuinely stupid rules that the ADL has deployed on Twitch. Okay, like not being able
to say Zionist and then insert any like animal name or whatever, you can say Nazi pigs.
Okay, you can say Islamist pigs, you can say fascist pigs, Republican pigs, Democrat pigs,
but you can't say Zionist, bleep. ADL made it so that it's no longer allowed to sell the
platform. They designed it just for me, and I did get banned for it, except your fan base
actually celebrated that ban. Genuinely, can people, like, find this to be reformed? No,
I don't think so because he makes money off of being edgy. He makes money off of being a neo-nazi
very difficult for someone to to
Stop what they're doing if this is how they make their
livelihood
Next, China rationalizes envy with ideologies that was baseless pressure the current journalism
society that either elevated speech to acceptable or to demote your message and speech to be
unacceptable like his.
Real, if I can't get away with what I want, neither can you type shit, it's pathetic.
Yeah, I mean, but that is literally the driving motivator behind Destiny's six year
long conquest against me as well. That is genuinely what this is. These guys will fuck
up spectacularly, all on their own. And instead of actually addressing why they fucked up
and learning from that, like learning a lesson from that fuck up, they very quickly turned
around and say, well, this guy does it too. That's where this butt Hassan shit comes from.
Destiny will have a fucking court case around revenge porn that he's disseminated, right?
To a minor, it turns out.
And what did his audience do?
They immediately hyper-fixated on anything that they could grab onto to claim, I was
doing something similar.
They couldn't really find one, so they invented it.
What did they say?
Oh, well, here's this, you know, Vogue article or Variety article or whatever, where Cassano
receives unsolicited nudes in front of a journalist.
Okay?
Don't you think that's the same as distributing revenge porn?
No, it's not.
Obviously it's not.
What the fuck are you talking about?
The problem for them is that most adults
can make that distinction.
Most adults can understand the difference
between those two things.
Yeah, even the fucking brothel thing,
for years and years, Destiny knowingly
has talked about how I went to a brothel, right?
something that I've talked about personally, like it went viral, people were really mad,
I was talking about sex work in general and how I have no issues with it, whatever.
And for years and years, Destiny knew knowingly, he knew that the brothel that I went to in 2010,
that is still around by the way, still in operations called Artemis in Berlin,
it got rated in 2016. And the prosecutors claimed it was rated for sex trafficking
um, and also for tax evasion turns out that wasn't the case at all turns out neither of those two things were happening at the brothel as a matter of fact and
uh, it, it the brothel actually sued this, uh, the state, the police force and the city and won the brothel won a defamation case.
Okay? That's that he knows all of that and yet he still consistently lies about this.
Why does he do that? Because he was in trouble for being a fucking sex pest over and over again.
He constantly gets into trouble because he has no self-control whatsoever.
He's an unbelievably narcissistic person and the only defense mechanism he has is to project
Because he's worried that if his audience hold him to account, then he's not going to be able to defend himself.
So he dangles the red meat. He goes, well, what about Hassan?
Turns out, his motherfucker literally did go to a illegal brothel where women were sex trafficked.
You ever paid for a prostitute before in a legal state?
I don't know if it's legal. I actually did one time very recently here because I was curious.
and one of those massage places or whatever.
And I was like, I'm curious what this is like, fuck it.
It was just like a sad hand job or?
Yes, for like, and I like tipped really well too,
because I was like, oh, you know,
I got a lot of money, these girls certainly don't make much.
Maybe it'll be, it was horrible.
Was it from like an older woman there?
She was probably like in her 30s or 40s.
You could have picked a better place, I guess.
Maybe, I mean, I'm not,
it's, I don't want to spend a lot of time doing it
because I'm not going to get caught
like doing anything illegal.
I just wanted to experience it one time.
Like the scenario is actually kind of sad to me.
like, I don't know, I have to pull out my phone and use Google Translate so that this
woman understands what I'm saying.
It feels like she's some fucking sex slave trafficked in, and it's like, this is kind
of awkward, and I don't feel good about this, and maybe you'll be really good at least giving
a hand to others, like, nope, man.
Where was she from?
What nationality was she?
I'm Chinese.
Oh.
But, yeah.
Interesting.
So, like, you know, it's always projection.
It's always fucking projection.
So, what do you do?
I guess you just keep going.
But that's what's going on here as well.
A similar vendetta is taking shape here as well, where it's like, why haven't you been
banned?
I have for years from all of these platforms. Why have you not been? Why didn't you have to suck destiny's dick like I did?
Say this is Nick Fuentes
to
To reach back out and to regain a platform
and
National socialists
There were neo Confederates and white identitarians. There were paleo cons
There were people that were there because they were concerned about the Robert E. Lee monument
you know what happened to those people those people were doxxed they were
harassed at their homes their families were harassed dog you did a fucking neo
nazi rally in Charlottesville of course people are gonna fucking hate that like
you're just at a certain point at a certain point you have to fucking come
to terms with the reality that yeah people don't fuck with Nazis and that
That same kind of enmity doesn't exist towards socialists.
And it's not because, it's not because like there hasn't been a lot of government intervention
in the direction of, of disrupting socialist organizing.
There has been, I would go so far as say, far more consequential disruptions in social,
social, uh, socialist organizing than fascist organizing in this country.
Okay.
times, and maybe even to this day, there are instances where fascist groups were deployed
deliberately by design, by the state, where the state turned a blind eye to fascist organizing.
Look at the Klan, right? Maybe it's too vulgar for you, that form of fascist organizing,
but I guess it's more American and more real and perhaps even more successful than what you're trying
to do.
They lost their homes. They lost their jobs. They lost their Twitter accounts. They lost
their bank accounts. They were charged five years later under the Biden administration
under the Ku Klux Klan statute in Virginia. The groups that organized it were sued by
the far left SPLC. So let me ask you this, when all those far right people that went to that rally,
when the government was being weaponized against them, when the big tech billionaires were cracking
down on them, when the far left activist organizations with 700 million dollars in offshore bank accounts
in the
Southern Poverty Law Center. Yeah, the most powerful institution in American society.
Anyway
You see a clear example of turning a blind eye to KKK's supremacist activity to punish
the left?
Yeah.
Time stamp of Norm speaking on the far right.
What is this sinister plot behind the far right shift on Israel?
Norm pickles the interview.
I'm trying to I'm trying to link up with the boy.
I'm trying to link up with Norm as well.
I really want to get him on the broadcast.
I said I would go to him if necessary.
Oh yeah, what's happened?
The SPLC is an indicator of how friendly to fashion the countries become.
They were a respected, normal legal aid organization.
And now they're the way they're attacked.
I know.
I know.
I mean, look, we are, we make no mistake.
Even if it's not Nick Flentes' version of fascism, right? We are experiencing a version
of fascism right now in America, right? We're not wrapping up. No, I got the, I want to
watch this Asmongole fan thing that Steven A. Sark did where he interviewed like Asmongole's
fans to develop a better understanding of what their appeal is, like where it's coming
from. Even NPR had a piece kind of attacking them. Yeah, I think fascism is developing
America. It's just not the anti-Semitic fascism that Nick Flentes wants. That's why I'm laughing.
It's not his version, right? It's a, I would even go so far as say like a Judeo-Christian
supremacist version of fascism. It's America and Israel working side by side. Now this doesn't
mean that like all American Christians and all American Jews are involved in this. That's not
not what I'm saying at all. But it's not the anti-Semitic version of fascism that you're
used to. When you think of fascism, you think of the neo-Nazi version or the Nazi version,
which is where Jews are the primary vector of ire and one of the main targets. It's not
like that.
What is the undisputed Roach King of Twitch?
If I had my way, I would disenfranchise 85% of the population instantly.
You cannot trust people that can't come to the conclusion that there are two genders.
At the end of the day, they want to come off on the side of illiterate, un-American,
immigrant Somalians rather than actual Americans.
Every day, tens of thousands of people watch and play video games, doom scroll on X, and
talk about politics.
I don't need to understand whatever article you want me to read.
All I need to understand is human psychology and incentives.
For the average person that doesn't know much about live streaming or World of Warcraft,
they know who Asmogold is because of clips like those.
I don't think that I do have a lack of empathy.
It's just that my, like I have a moral compass.
It just doesn't point north.
I've been a digital culture reporter for the past decade
studying every facet of Twitch, YouTube,
and influencer culture.
And I've watched Asmogold go from a fairly small
World of Warcraft guide creator
into the largest political creator on a lot of platforms.
If I had my way, I would disenfranchise 85%
of the population instantly.
I would take away their right to vote.
And I wanted to know why.
When I watch Asmogold, I just get uncomfortable.
Think about how close Kamala Harris came
to winning the presidency,
and then tell me that democracy is a good idea.
Things he says are so explicit and over the top
that they really don't make sense to me.
Is homophobia real, actually?
It's not, it's not real.
Always freak out, always melt down, always overreact,
act and never leave your opponent any breathing room ever.
So I spent the past six months investigating
Asmogold, figuring out why people like him.
So I went directly to his viewers,
a lot of whom I spoke to on X.
Stephen literally, he is a reporter.
He's a real reporter.
He does culture and tech reporting for Rolling Stone
and whatnot.
So that's the reason why I was going to watch it.
You don't even agree to discord calls with me.
What I learned is that the average Asmogold viewer
a complex individual who doesn't understand why the world is the way it is, but blames
DEI and women for the problems that they experience. They are full of distrust and hate, but I
think there's still hope here, because even in Asma Gold's like-
He should have just ended it there. The average Asma Gold doesn't understand what is going on.
It's true.
Like, disgusting diatribe. There are some pieces that I agree with.
Five or ten million dollars should be the amount of money that you should be looking at people that have more than that and being like
Why aren't you paying more and why aren't you giving out more of your money? So thanks for coming and welcome to my channel
This is Steven A. Sarge talks
It's a good take
I'm glad that Steven put that in there because that is a part of the complexity argument because he does actually have
populist sentiment on both sides at times, but for every like good take that he has like that,
right? That's very appealing to everyone, you know, that has mass appeal. I would say 80% of
his commentary revolves around the other dumb shit and hatred. And also, it ultimately doesn't
make any sense because he still eats Elon Musk's penis all the time, like literally,
I mean, now stop. He's eating Elon Musk's deformed penis with regular frequency.
What is this? Ostonox smears? Well, I missed it.
Ostonox and I have made this for you regarding the smears. Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Whenever you have somebody, I saw his tweet, 4,000 followers, journalists crashing out
because Asmongole fans don't want to talk.
What's this?
Let me only pull it up.
About a month or so back, I asked any Asmongole fans to meet me in the real world.
What?
What?
They have like a perception of him.
Like he's like some sheltered hermit, like Jedi wizard that knows everything in the world.
Despite him not actually interacting with it.
I genuinely believe there are people here for his gaming takes and I'm so worried that
you're getting radicalized by Twitch's most powerful.
It's the Roosevelt quote the reactionary is always willing to take a progressive attitude on any issue that is dead the moment
There's a chance it'll pass. He'll flip beautiful
And these research streamer let's go ahead and research
Let's look this person up and see what they've said about me
Yeah, it would be poor research because he's not doing any research at all
He's literally just picking up a video on watching it
So there's not even a single actual criticism that this person has for me when I hear
There has been gold saying, you know, provocative intense things like, I don't know, certain
groups of people need to be put in immense institution or, um, if he doesn't express
that much empathy for, uh, people dying, you know, things like that, uh, I'm not listening
because I necessarily share that exact belief system, uh, as he does.
I don't have to go for trust as I, and I don't write hit pieces.
I try to write my stories from a place of understanding.
understanding is basically saying that I'm an edgward and I don't know what I'm talking
about. Okay, okay, but that's true. So he did do his research. You're just mad.
That's literally just true. This is not even an ideological disagreement that I have. And
I think he's being fairly favorable here in this, in this video as well, where he says
that you're a complex individual, but you have openly admitted this. You literally say you don't
do research, you don't have to do research, you don't have to read. All you need is game theory
or a deep understanding of how human beings operate by self-interest. Sure, yeah, obviously
nobody's going to engage with that. Definitely. So who is Zach Hoyt known as Asmogold? Born in
in Austin, Texas in 1990.
Asma Golds grew up in relative poverty
with two parents who really struggled to get by.
Things could have been worse for me,
but yeah, we were very poor.
Like she made under poverty like every year basically.
I grew up in a house where my mom never really had a job
and we grew up in poverty.
And my dad helped me out a bit
and he made sure that the lights stayed on,
but that was about it.
He was obsessed with video games from a young age.
In a rare interview from 2016,
He tells a story of how he was running around with his friends, pretending to be Halo Spartans,
and that's where the name came from and it just stuck.
Asma Gold never really wanted to do anything in life.
He never really had any aspirations for anything grander than what he had.
He just...
I think the biggest indictment here is that he looks positively British.
In more ways than one.
He's literally just British, maybe that's why the fucking reform UK lads like this guy,
they see a proper lad.
A fucking Angloid.
Down at a fucking teeth.
You're definitely banned from the UK now.
Rhymes' existence is just something that he did in order to get by.
Video games were his main focus, and he wanted to do anything so that he didn't have to
get a real job. That was one of the reasons why I didn't have a job as I didn't want one.
Like all I really wanted to do was click government welfare and jerk off and play video games.
And as a dork slash nerd slash gamer myself, it's something I entirely understand. I got started
in journalism writing guides for League of Legends because I didn't want to have to actually work.
So I entirely relate to Asmogold on that point. Asmogold had a few jobs. He worked for the IRS
in a few other smaller places.
But his real love was World Warcraft.
It was a game that he dedicated his whole life to.
He became one of the best warriors in the entire game
and decided it would be a good idea to post YouTube guides
on how to be the best warrior and stuff like that.
His channel.
Yeah, he did.
He worked for the IRS.
Yes, it's true.
He gained some success, but not too much.
He was still very niche for a while.
I was making while YouTube videos
and then they said you should stream
and then I started streaming.
That's exactly it.
It worked really well. It did. I mean, my stream popped off immediately.
Like I immediately started doing well.
And so like I was like totally locked in on this. That's all I would do.
But after enough time on YouTube,
he was able to make enough to survive.
Is that the reason why I dropped out is that I was making $1,500 a month.
And I, I was like, okay, well, I can make a living on $1,500 a month.
Why would I need more than $1,500 a month?
It wasn't until 2019.
a world of care to explain this on. Oh yeah. I saw this very fitting for the guy who helped
Trump win in 2024 to have a 2020 MAGA hat. Leftist are just MAGA. And then this guy responded.
Not many people caught this at the time, but here's a song showing his true colors secretly
signaling that he's a MAGA supporter. And then this guy goes, I know you're trying to trivialize
the situation, but to anyone outside of Hassan's base, this joke doesn't land when he did, when
he didn't, everything in his power to help MAGA win. And then he responded with, you're
Absolutely right. I've also noticed that a lot of people who actually watch this coverage of the election have no idea
How much he was helping Trump
It almost felt like he wasn't helping Trump at all it almost felt like he was criticizing Trump
But I'm gonna take your word for it sire rottweiler
No, this person is obviously fucking with him dude, what do you mean? He's literally saying
Yeah, he was so good at hiding that he was helping Trump that no one got it.
Warcraft Classic came out, which took the game back to its roots of just endless grinding
where you don't need to accomplish anything in your life, you just need to play World of Warcraft
all day. That Asmogold really soared in viewership. He became the main World of Warcraft streamer,
and his audience bloomed in popularity. You have a vermin problem? Hi.
A lot of people found him during this time, including Alan Hulkswood,
a 43-year-old Australian who loved World of Warcraft.
I don't necessarily watch all these videos.
I kind of dip in and out.
Look, I think in a lot of the...
I probably didn't watch him for the first few years.
It's probably only really after he became big.
Alan, we spoke for about 40 minutes
and seemed like a very lonely man.
He has people he knows from work,
but all of his friends are people he knows online.
I have very small friend group of true friends.
Friends that I've been with for 20 plus years.
But that is essentially the only friends I really have.
Alan says he lives like Asmogold.
He's a fairly gross individual.
I think, you know, he made jokes at the time
about having a dead rat that would smell
when the sun came up, so he knew it was time to wake up.
The thing is, I used to use a dead rat
as an alarm clock, actually, for my stream.
Because basically what happened was,
Whenever the sun would come up, it would start cooking the corpse of the rat, and he had bits of blood smeared on his wall from his poor hygiene, and his room was relatively disgusting.
I'm gonna be completely honest with you. I essentially live the same way.
God, this is...
Okay, this is a little bit like confirmation bias for me, but I mean, this is literally what I have suspected all along, which is that,
As I remember, I had this conversation with Felix when we were talking about the evolution of
reactionary thought and the evolution of reactionary content. At some point it went from
like contentious politics, Ben Shapiro doing debates, intellectualism to aspirational politics with
with the likes of Andrew Tate, which was no longer about trying to engage in any sort
of pseudo-intellectual representation of your ideas.
And the final evolution is representational politics.
A lot of people like Asmongold, regardless of the fact that Asmongold is a multi-millionaire,
numerous business owner, he owns multiple businesses and makes tens of millions of
dollars a year, right? For, for a lot of people, they looked Asmongold as a hero
because they're like, oh my God, he made it while also being a, a, a schlub, like
also being kind of disgusting. Like he lives like a depressed, agoraphobic and a
A lot of people in his fan base are depressive orophobics who look to Asmongold as like this
beacon, this hero, this representation.
I can see what?
Five cans, empty cans right now.
Two coffee bottles that close on the floor, you know, lots and lots of them.
I'm a messy person, so I don't see, I don't judge him for his hygiene.
I don't take pride living in garbage or not.
It's simply something that I don't care about.
lives in squalor and hates immigration,
which he says doesn't make him a bad person.
It's because he's Australian.
What's that place with the kangaroos?
They, that they, they couldn't get rid of them.
What was, what's it called?
Arizona, not Arizona.
It's something like that.
Australia.
Things like the Great Replacement Theory slash
replacing the population.
Obviously it appeals a little bit more to me
because I believe it is a possibility for us, unfortunately.
But he's also pro-fascism.
I think once again, as you said, the pro-fascism,
but once again, in Australia, in certain regards,
I still believe 100% we need fascism.
Now, how did we arrive at this worldview
from being an Asmongold watcher.
That's crazy.
Bogan, Bogan, fucking Bogan, bro.
Fucking Bogan, bro.
And Asmongold was just there for him.
He watched him multiple hours a day while he was working.
Asmongold was just part of his life.
I am very different to a lot of normal people.
His political takes, in a sense,
I probably agreed with, say, 90% of them.
In a sense, he became a news source.
In a world where streamers were standing
in fancy houses and being superstars,
there was Asmogold sitting in his filth,
talking about how he just wants to play
World of Warcraft all day and hang out.
The money and the fame never got to him.
He's still the same disgust in Gremlin
that he was when he was still making
just a few guides for a few thousand dollars.
See, but he doesn't have to wear the,
I'm holier than they are Vinnie because it's aesthetics see I clocked this
Remember I told you his fan base
Associates his nastiness with relatability and also decency like their their brains are so fucking
Rewired and and so busted in many respects
that they think people fall for this grift and call him an everyday man. Yeah,
be as mingle, eat beef jerky for two square meals, eat fast food for dinner,
top it off with ice cream, fall asleep in a chair, watching anime. That's why he's
popular. He's the modern every man. Yeah, they associate his horrifying hygiene
habits with authenticity. When in fact, maybe it is authentically himself, maybe
he's just a nasty little pervert, right? Whatever. Okay? Who knows? They each
their own. But he is unbelievably out of touch. And if you see yourself in this authentically
degenerate person, then you probably are unbelievably out of touch as well. This is
the problem. But they think, oh, he's just like me, he lives just like me, he doesn't
care to generate more value. He's not greedy, you know? He's a regular guy, he's just like
me. It's like, bitch, you're not a regular guy. How do you not understand this? You're
You're not a regular guy.
If you live like Asmogol, you're not regular, okay?
You're irregular.
It's not a normal way to live.
You need to snap out of it.
This is, depending on the level of depression and anxiety, you're probably experiencing
on a daily basis.
You might need medical intervention, you know what I mean?
It's not normal.
But on the internet, it is because who spends the most amount of time on the internet?
Who is more likely to create an account that says, Christian father, husband and shit poster
in that order, DACA, DACA, like a white nationalist anime account, right?
A guy who's like Asmongold, an irregular person because regular people are not doing this
shit.
And that's precisely the reason why the internet is inundated with irregular folks.
And what is irregular in the real world becomes very regular on the internet.
And that actually has a damaging cycle that it creates as well, where, because everyone
is increasingly more online, this might actually end up reproducing more people like this and
maybe at a certain point turn this irregularity into irregularity. Does that make sense?
So obviously, he lives in squalor, doesn't turn around today, you know, I'm better than you.
But after his 2019 explosion, Asmongold started to diversify into different spaces.
He co-founded OTK with a few of his friends and mythic talent, a talent agency.
He started...
Wait, um, that sort of executive dysfunction is not the sort of thing you snap out of.
If we had universal services, we would have had help, we would have had help and been
totally different person.
No, I know.
But I'm saying that these guys don't even see anything at odds with that.
They think this is a healthy and normal way to live.
And as many gold does have the fucking capacity, you're talking about a guy who makes like
$10 million a year again owns five fucking businesses.
Like, he's not like his fan base.
His fan base might not recognize that there's an issue there.
Okay.
As we go, it has all of the capacity to fix everything.
He just chooses not to.
The podcast and really started to expand outside of just his niche and really exploded in 2022.
I lived like that for five years, undiagnosed and untreated neurodivergence and task paralysis.
It was years of you saying exercising could build my confidence back up.
That's right.
That's why I try to, to, you know, be a better example for the people that are fucking watching.
He literally does say he's better than you.
If you're brown, also, as man did have state help.
He was on snap.
He's just insane.
He's received state help and talked about how his family needed to survive.
Yeah, I know.
And now he just, you know, makes money, tens of millions of dollars every
year, denying it to others.
During the Amber Heard trial, when all of these commentary streamers were
reacting every single day to what was going on with Amber Heard, because they
desperately needed content and they didn't want to have to think for themselves.
Here we go.
Let's do it.
Oh my God.
I caught the most trays out of this, even though I had the most balance
where I was just like, I don't like either party involved here and everybody fucking still yells at me when
Virtually every content creator and the entire internet was primarily on Johnny Depp side and
Once again, the one motherfucker that was like, I don't like either of these people
I think they're both weird every fucking person was like you're the reason and they will now they'll latch onto it and they'll yell at me
even further
It's crazy
See, people still do it, nah, you were wrong in that one, sorry.
Okay, Amber Heard is the victim here, yes, Johnny Depp is bad, I don't even like Johnny
Depp, I hate Johnny Depp, I don't care, I have no dog in this fight.
This is just, this is bad, man.
Lots of different content creators, including people who had never covered anything remotely
like this before, all started covering this at the same time.
It was so funny because I also covered it the least out of everyone.
I would do wall-to-wall coverage every single day,
and I didn't, because there was real news going on.
From the position of that narrative
and getting millions of views from it.
This is not your home in Vader.
Zendain found Asmogold through these amber herd clips.
I wasn't even watching the trial.
I thought the whole concept was stupid.
Myself, when I'd heard it, it was, you know,
people were watching it, but I just happened to click on it.
I think it was because of
something just kind of ca
know, it was good click b
know, his reactions were
Johnny Depp the way they
was funny. Zendane said h
grandmother was a school
came here properly. So sh
but all these bad immigr
They're the ones causing
She didn't come here jobl
to live here illegally.
There is no illegal immigration in my family.
And this might even be controversial to say,
but any disparity we're gonna feel throughout life,
that it's gonna come more so from our own people
than from someone outside of our culture.
So, but essentially, if we define what happens
when we say that was racist, right?
Someone says a bad slur, someone beats you up,
or to someone prevents you from advancing in life at a job.
Like any of those things you're going to experience,
we're going to, as Hispanics,
we're going to most likely experience those more
from other Hispanics than from someone who's black or white.
He described Asmongold as a street creature.
You know, I'm going to use Sasanagi as an example.
He's more like trying to come across like the Pope.
Everyone should listen to me.
Whereas Asmongold is the wacky homeless guy
on the side of the road, you know,
holding the Bible and just screaming his interpretation of the Bible.
I think if I like this guy going, yeah, you know, you know who I like, even in his worldview,
I know he's trying to use that as a negative. Like he's saying, I'm the negative force here.
But yeah, I think the Pope would be more knowledgeable on Catholicism than the random fucking street
preacher who's by your own words in your own estimation the crazy one but that's
that's wildly he just dropped that as like Hasan is annoying because he is the
pope in this equation a position of authority he has and I hate that shit I
choose voluntarily to listen to the guy who is not knowledgeable and genuinely
fucking insane
He said, between the pope and the hobo, I'm getting my Christianity from the hobo.
Look, maybe I'm weird, and I recognize that.
But I believe that we have a finite amount of time on God's green earth, okay?
So, if I'm putting information into my brain, there are moments where I'm looking for entertainment,
certainly.
Right?
I watch anime, I watch movies, I listen to comedy podcasts every now and then.
But if I'm listening to something to develop a better understanding of it, I'm definitely
not going to a guy that I'm going to self-describe as a crazy person, okay?
I don't see any utility in that at all.
I don't have time to just sit there and listen to what fucking Asmongold has to say because
I know he doesn't know anything.
And I genuinely can't comprehend why people do that.
Like I'll watch value attainment, right?
I watch bad shit, but oftentimes I watch it to derive some satisfaction out of it just
to like make fun of it or to make content for you guys to consume or to sometimes directly
uh...
tackle the ideas that they're representing to develop a deeper understanding of what the oppositional figures are saying and thinking
there's a there's a utility for it right
but in my own spare time i'm never gonna focus it around and listen to like as many gold because i know he doesn't know what the fuck
he's talking about so i cannot comprehend
why other people do this than why the fuck you watching a video about him right now let me out this bozo
see this is what i mean this is the mindset of the average as man go fan
i just described why i'm watching
oppositional figures
but in the process of me describing to you why i would be watching a video like
this one which is not as many gold mind you i'm watching a fucking actual tech
reporter
who's a fairly smart guy
do a deep dive and analysis into why as we go fandom is uh... is is
invested in as many gold
you're so fucking stupid that you can't comprehend that
even if i was just straight up watching as we go video i would have
You, I just explained to you why I would be doing that in this very moment.
Okay.
As chatter about his dad, I have a theory this chatter can handle my swag.
You're underestimating how stupid the average person is.
I know.
After Amber Hurge, Asma Gold sort of felt invulnerable, like he could say anything and get away with it, because his community absolutely loved it.
If you look at during this time, he starts working with Clippers to grow into a massive phenomena.
Every single one of his YouTube videos were pulling in millions of views, so his streams were getting tense.
Hassan met with his son, met with Jodi Evans, wife of Neville Rossingham, a finance, a financiist,
a financiist of CCP related agencies, disgusting.
He's lying Lamar.
Iran still reports some stuff, but limits inspections and gate keeps access.
So the International Atomic Energy Agency doesn't fully know what's going on.
They have literally 24 seven camera access or had.
What's this R word why would China sacrifice is biggest market US and Europe for an unwanted
war?
They're focused on internal development.
That's why they're extracting minerals all over the world.
Wait, is he, I can't tell.
He hates China, but he's at least somewhat knowledgeable about China, but he says words
like finances.
The finances by Francis Ford Coppola.
clav update. He's de-transitioning. Yeah, I saw YouTuber clavicular has gone four weeks
to that testosterone trying to recover his fertility and people can't believe how different
he already looks. He's de-transitioning. The world's first male to male de-transitioner.
I've told you this is this is MTM trends, like for sure.
I think he got mugged too hard he got mugged so hard he was just like fuck it I'm out I'm done
what's the purpose dude the judge the judge mugged him so hard in the courtroom it made him
reconsider everything he's like fuck this what's the goddamn point dude I've been fucking putting
that hammer to my face nonstop and then I walk up to a courtroom and some fucking random sexy
judge destroys me yeah it was fatally mugged he sentenced the beta dumb the judge hit the
fucking gavel said, you got four years of being beta, bitch.
inferior culture that is horrible. It kills people for their identity and it is directly
antithetical to everything that your value stands for and it is an inferior culture
in all ways. From there he did apologize somewhat saying. I said something about it that was
disgusting. I think that I've been slowly devolving into the most mean spirit. I like that he
He had like a second and a half of introspection and then quintrupled the down in ways that
one could have previously never foreseen.
Like he literally had one week of being like, yeah, I think this politics stuff is just
making me really like a bad person.
And then he was like, actually, I really enjoy the amount of love and admiration I receive
from people who live in identical conditions to me all around the world, so I'm going to keep doing that.
I don't really even know what the word is for it, just like the most mean-spirited, rude,
like nasty, like just callous, psychopathic version of myself. I think that I've been devolving into
Since then, Asmogold has basically proven that he's learned nothing.
He is just saying whatever the hell he wants.
Asmogold's cut ties with OTK and Mythic, though he did clean his room.
And clean out the entire thing. Clean out everything. Clean out all the desks.
I even got the vacuum cleaner.
But around this time is when I really started to have a fascination into Asmogold.
I kept seeing all of those clips, all of those horrifying things he said.
Say it the way I think it is. That's it. I say it the way it is.
Anybody thinks I'm racist, I have their fucking mind.
So if they think that, they're crazy. Fuck them.
Who cares?
What you're saying is very true.
People are gonna take this out of context,
turn it into something to name.
Good, I'll look forward to it.
It's a new YouTube video for me tomorrow.
His lines on what is fair and what isn't are really confusing.
Weirdly enough, he does believe that a universal basic income is a good thing,
and that you should help the poor.
I think it's okay if they want to buy cookies with food stamps,
because in my opinion...
It's just cookies man. Let a person have a little bit of dignity.
He doesn't like immigrants, he doesn't like people, he doesn't care for anyone that is
outside of his own bubble.
The West has a huge problem that we have an infection and we refuse to admit that there's
a problem. There is clearly a problem, there is clearly an affliction and there is also
clearly a solution. But they don't want to talk about that because it might make them
feel bad. That has to stop.
When you're watching somewhat eight hours a day,
that sort of diatribe really infects who you are as a person.
So I decided I needed to figure out who watches Asmogle.
So in December of 2025, I put out a tweet
saying, if you live in New York City,
I would love to talk to you.
And I got hundreds of responses,
all of which said, absolutely not.
Some of them said I was trying to make a trap,
that I was going to record them,
even though I said it was gonna be an off-the-record talk.
I just wanted to figure out who they were,
And they all hated the idea so much.
I also got a lot of valuable answers.
People seem to love Asmogold
because they love to spend time with someone who is genuine.
The fact that he is someone real,
that he is someone you can hang out with,
that he doesn't seem like he's faking it.
And I don't necessarily believe that's a-
Look, he's the standard character of a gamer,
not some LA yacht streamer.
Whenever he starts talking politics though, I tune it out.
I'm not in your city obviously I tell you why people might feel that way whether they
I agree or not. He doesn't show you how he feels. He's blunt and totally honest.
I'll be honest myself. I hate a lot of what he says,
but he still managed to get me to watch regardless.
I don't think Asimov gold has.
I'm willing to bet every single person that wrote this under that comment has
deep tremendous disdain for me for a lot of these guys.
Like their understanding of politics ends and begins with content creators on the
With content creators on the internet. There is no worldview beyond it. There is no politics beyond it. It's just
It's just like I hate Hassan. I love asming old. I love asming old. I hate Hassan that type of shit
Anyone's best interest at heart other than himself he just like us buddy
My community fucking despises what I cover as my goal for more than three and a half minutes
This is the first time I've watched a long extensive Asmongold video.
This community doesn't give a fuck about Asmongold.
Are you insane?
At most, at most, sometimes when he says some fucking heinous shit, we cover it.
But more often than not, throughout the entire day, we're just talking about the news.
Like, I just interviewed a candidate running for Senate for an hour and a half.
What are you talking about?
And when you say us, I suspect you're not even a fan.
You're just in here larping as a fan.
Like us first comment.
I understand the space that I occupy. Okay. I understand what my, I have a very clear
cut purpose, a very clear cut goal, an agenda. Okay. I have a worldview. I'm not shy about
explaining what my worldview is. And I bake it into all the news coverage that I do throughout
the day. I see my role, my job, my responsibility as someone who is going to navigate the world.
World of news every single day, or whoever wants to come in here and learn what the fuck's going on.
Okay?
That's it.
That's my job.
There are, of course, instances where I'll dive into silly shit, meme around, make jokes, maybe even play a video game every now and then, every eight months or so.
But through thick and thin, through the highs and the lows, whether people are watching
or whether people are not paying attention, I'm always in here covering the day's news
every single day, right?
That's what I'm doing.
Wants to be able to like live how he wants to live.
The money he makes means nothing to him.
I got a 10.99 and it was like millions of dollars.
I don't even know where I came from.
You probably have 68 million dollars left after taxes.
More than that probably.
A lot more than that.
Really?
He doesn't want to grow off of it.
He just wants to like exist and again, not have to work.
And the people who watch him, I think feel similarly.
They just want to be able to watch and not think and just hang out.
So about a month after I do that tweet, I put on another tweet,
which is basically my thoughts on Asmogold.
I will, I will let Asmogle read my tweet. So I don't have to about a month or so back.
I asked any Asmogle fans to meet me in the real world. What? What? Well,
but none of them took me up on the offer. Instead, I got hundreds of replies and messages saying
that I didn't understand them, how I should just watch the streams and not the clips. So I did,
I did, and I learned that Zach doesn't care. He'll put out a video that he doesn't understand the
full context of and rants about it with extreme right wing bias. It's vitriol for six hours straight.
A hand-picked selection of clips designed to invoke anger without critical thinking.
I genuinely believe there are people here for his gaming takes and I'm so worried that
they're getting radicalized by Twitch's most powerful and least researched streamer.
He read it on stream and it was quite pissed.
This guy is like he's randomly trying to meet me in real life.
Yeah, obviously random people don't want to meet some dumb ass in real life.
Let's see what this guy is saying about me.
And then his fans came after me hard.
They were ready to call me all sort of names.
But out of that tweet,
I managed to get a conversations going
with a few actual Asmogold fans.
People who agreed that,
hey, maybe it's a good time
to kind of leave the echo chamber.
Because Asmogold believes
that you should stay within the echo chamber.
So the problem that I have is that
whenever I wanna interact with somebody,
or somebody wants to interact with me,
usually that's like a non-starter
because I don't wanna talk to anybody.
What's a good time for you?
Never, never, that's the answer, never.
Whenever Destiny or Hasan wants to debate him these days,
he turns it down because the idea of having your views
questioned is completely unacceptable to ask.
Oh yeah.
I have no obligation to do any.
And it's really funny,
because like Destiny fans will say this about me as well.
And it's like, no,
I just don't want to fuck them be around Destiny.
I talk to people that I disagree all the time.
I do debates in public, I go outside.
I do debates that I set up ahead of time with people like Sean Hannity, and then they fucking escape me
You know I'm setting one up with Van Jones. I just don't want to fucking be anywhere near that weirdo, but I'll debate anybody else pretty much
He's saying and there are some people he doesn't want to debate anybody he doesn't want anyone to question him at all
all.
People that think that, well, Charlie Kirk does me too, so does Sean Hannity, he's fucked
up.
Because I disagree with you so much.
You have some kind of like obligation to 1v1 me or something.
I do think if you do political commentary, you, I think there should be, this would be
one of the laws I would enforce, you should have an obligation to have some kind of confrontational
discourse.
It can't just be that everybody can go run up into their own corners and construct their
own realities.
That's just crazy to me.
like it's acceptable?
Yeah.
No.
He wants to exist in this world
and he wants to be that sort of guy
that doesn't have his stuff question.
He wants to exist in the filth.
Throughout all these conversations and all these tweets,
what I learned is that the Averic Asmogold fan
just wants to live in their own echo chamber.
They just want to relate to a guy
who they feel is like them.
I don't wanna make fun of these people,
but the first openly said how much he loves fascism.
The second one was a fourth-generation Mexican immigrant who believes that immigration is a bad thing.
And the third may be a whole powerpoint about Hassan's armpits.
Who am I? None of your business.
Black drew it. He reached out to me with extreme animosity and really was like,
I'm gonna own this guy. He gave me a list of five rules.
Oh my god, brother. What? This is...
I told you, I told you. It's like...
There are entire circles on the internet where they just sit around and have
psychosexual pathological obsessions
with what they perceive I'm doing on a daily basis.
It is such a strange way to fucking live.
These are the great names you click.
By the way, no, I know.
Asma said he's the only one being fair to you about the subpoena thing.
Wait, what?
He literally was giddy at the prospect of me going to fucking prison forever.
He's like, finally someone's demanding it, what the fuck is he talking about?
Before we even spoke, including I could not ask his name or any personal information,
which is pretty hard for an interview, because that's kind of the whole point.
But once we got talking, it got even stranger.
Every girl isn't a right-winger. He's been as far as I've watched going back all the way to the docks of days
He's always been left-wing. Um, if you want, I'm just going to just send a quick photo to you
So you can just look a look here. Oh my god another European
Wait, what the fuck
bro you're just mentally ill you're like a mentally ill uroid chud you need to stop bro
you have socialized medicine okay I can hear it in your fucking accent go to the hospital check
into the hospital big dog. What the fuck are you doing? You're not even taking advantage of it.
Again, if you want to argue on whether or not Asman Gold is left wing, just argue on the policies that he advances that he advocates for. Why do you have to compare him to me?
like this is this is betraying the entire project like you basically give the
game away your entire understanding of the world revolves around fucking
twitch streamers man fuck
you're obsessed me are you talking to the guy who made a fucking unprompted
PowerPoint when a journals was trying to identify like what people like about
Asmongold and he immediately started talking about why Asmongold is leftist. Look, here's the
leftist that he is exactly like. Uh-oh, Scatter.
That created an entire PowerPoint where he showed why Hassan is worse than Asmongold.
Because Hassan had a horse growing up and Asmongold was the goaded Chad who lived in
Squalor. These were benefits to him. Black Druid giggled when I used the term POC.
I forget that there are like POCs in media.
Sorry, can you say that again?
There are POCs in media?
POCs?
I put it over your head.
It's a person of color.
I'm not sure if you know, but I'm a brown myself.
So I'm not really sure what you're expecting,
but I'll lift Booberman.
And believes that DEI is what is killing video games
and went on a long rant about hiding
for the fact that if they were to appeal to like this woke ideology they also
lose a lot of money like you can look at the video game for example Dragon Age I
would actually assume that a lot of men have felt attacked by journalists that
though we will basically their whole space of the gaming sphere because they've
catered its an acutor to the woke crowd there was lost billions we can just talk
about Conkford if that is true.
He thinks he's cooking.
He thinks he's literally cooking right now, he's like, well, let me tell you, the DEI
has destroyed the video gaming.
Listen, I'm a browneuroid.
I bet you are confused that a brown man could be a racist.
Ha ha ha well be confused no longer ha ha that's right
Oh, that's all right a checkmate a little bit hard as I bet you're scared
I said such an edgy voice edgy word a little bit hard
example as well. Assassin's Creed Shadows, right? It's an ideology that I believe of
which like let's just take it out, right? Let's take out all the politics, okay? Let's just
say that it was an ideology that loses money. Is that a first assessment that we can both agree on?
No. I'm not getting into any of that sort of stuff in this video. There are plenty of other
YouTube videos on the internet that are gonna do that for me. So I'm just gonna kind of explain,
you know, what these people are kind of thinking. Sorry, I'm feeling a little bit under the weather.
Turns out going outside was a terrible idea. I've also let the place get a little messy,
but I thought that was kind of appropriate for what we're talking about today.
This video has pushed me to my absolute limit. My YouTube recommended feed has been absolutely
destroyed. It is just full of Asmogold videos now. And now I see his hair and teeth whenever
I close my eyes or go to sleep. DEI and Woke just fill my every moment. But it hasn't all
been bad. There have been a few bright spots in this production. Alan recently beat cancer
and said that his opinions on Asmogold have shifted mainly because of Asman's takes on
the Iran War.
So when you first talked to me and talking about as an I'm not a hundred percent sure where that was in general because that was a couple months ago, but with this latest Iran stuff, he is just following the narrative, which is America good and we're the best type thing.
Remember, Alan literally said he's a fascist.
So there's a high likelihood that he no longer fucks with Asmongold as much because he just only watches Nick Fuentes.
Yes, Alan the Australian. I don't think he salvaged himself. Maybe he has we'll hear
what he has to say, or he could have just moved on to someone who is at least a little
bit more knowledgeable about what's going on, although they are still a fucking fascist.
Right. Almost jail time, buddy. Yeah, bro, even whether I go to jail or not, you're still
a fucking loser okay but the reality is that you have to also look at why are
people oppressed and in some cases there's a good reason why they're
oppressed and you should probably oppress them even more they deserve it
and I think that Iran's a good example same with criminals stuff like that
shoplifters I feel it's more about keeping the audience that he wants and I
think that the moment that American bombs start dropping the moment that
American soldiers get involved. Now it's no longer the Iranian revolution, it's the regime
change that was basically, dude, he was so, that's the other thing that also annoys me.
Like, I understand why a lot of people were very mad at me and they never let it go when
I was wrong about fucking Russia will never invade Ukraine, even though my analysis, I
still stand by it was sound and I was literally, you know, getting my notes from Ukrainian
resource on the ground, who also didn't think that it was, uh, it was, uh, you know, convincing
enough that it was something that Vladimir Putin is crazy enough to fucking commit to.
I was wrong. Okay. I apologize. We moved on, but these guys are so consistently wrong
all the fucking time. And yet no one actually goes, dude, what the fuck? You are, you are
genuinely leading me astray. They're perfectly happy being wrong. Okay. They're perfectly
happy living in the wrong universe. And whenever the truth contradicts what they assume is
happening or what they assume is going to happen, they don't just go, where am I getting
this bad information from? They just move along. I don't know how you can live like
that. I don't know how you can actually consistently feed yourself bad information, right? It doesn't
make any fucking sense remember the amazing Amazon take amazing asthma take
that people would get bored with this is real stuff yeah he was wrong on that
too or even like sex pestany Epstein is a big like wrong bet kind of guy too he
just was consistently wrong on the Israel issue and he's just never let it go
he just constantly he's found himself deeper and deeper in a hole on this
Israel stuff and on numerous other occasions as well like you know Joe
Biden shouldn't drop out or you know Kamala Harris is gonna win and we can
actually cast aside this lefty nonsense and like we should actually purge the
left from the party from the ranks of the fucking party all this stuff like
and and there are there is a legion of like cult followers basically that are
just they'd live in this super that live in this environment where they're just
wrong all the fucking time and they're unbelievably loud while they're wrong
all the time. I don't understand it. I don't get it.
If I was going to a single resource for all of my information, yeah, Mum Donnie won't win all this shit, but
if I was going to a single resource for all my information and that single resource was consistently wrong in
their analysis, in their prediction, all this shit, I would probably, yeah, I mean, there's another great example,
another one of his fucking orbiters.
Kamala aggressively courting modders to the red-organist speech at the ellipse.
You absolutely love to see it. I feel extremely confident that the strategy will ultimately prove itself to be a right move.
Come election day, we'll miss you. Margins of Indies and ours. Victory needs to come first, and this current elector is definitely not asking for a Bernie Sanders approach to government.
Do what needs to be done in order to win. We have zero options without victory.
Is the reason you're actually live after five because you're trying to farm PBS those for
the petto I'm gonna bring the hammer down you got to start saving for legal fees. Yeah,
no, I'm just, I'm just back home.
I think there's a difference in like David Pakman's audience, for example. David Pakman's audience is like more adult and actually going to David Pakman to get information.
So David Pakman lost a lot of subscribers in the aftermath of the election because people were like angry at him. They felt like he had actually led them astray, right?
Because David Pacman, regardless of our ideological differences, regardless of our, you know, world views,
has an audience that is there to like learn about the world, has an audience that isn't there just to like fucking lean into internet drama or
or whatever kind of fucking idiotic thing that
Asmongold or Destiny covers in general.
That's the case. And that's why I think his adult audience was like, this fucking sucks.
Catter's usual goes down when we talk about him, he doesn't care Lamont, what?
Silitated by America.
Zendane said he's actually super excited for this video to come out, and Black Druid doesn't
seem to hate me as much.
He's sent me very long rants, including a few heart emojis, but I think the thing that's
made me most optimistic working on this project was meeting Charles A. Hurley, a 23-year-old
who first started watching Asma Gold when he was 16 or 17.
Amidst the flames, only we shall remain.
When I got into Wild Classic,
I also got into his content a lot more
where he starts to grow on me,
where he had like this resonance of like really,
really debility.
His cousin had introduced him to Asma Gold
because they were both playing World of Warcraft Classic
and he got really into Asma.
became really excited and energized by Aspen's content.
He started becoming a bit of a comfort for me back then.
I used to like watch a lot of his VODs for hours on end,
like usually on like other when I'm playing other games,
I always have them on the background.
Just feels like you're kind of like committed
into like something bigger with him.
He became watching and obsessing,
wanting to know what made Aspen Gold so good
at the games he played.
I used his mannerisms to like bleed into like my own personal life.
The idea of like becoming something more like the idea that was implanted into my head.
Well just becoming like as I thought before like someone like him like well regarded or
well like spoken just like well accomplished or like have like dreams of becoming the next
Asmongold.
Oh god, that was, that's so fucking cringe of me to think about that, but...
He started to copy his mannerisms because he thought it would make him a better player
in the video game that he really loved, Star Wars the Old Republic.
He started to take the game as seriously as Asmogold was.
But he was also copying Asmogold's mannerisms out of game.
He was saying whatever he wanted, he was becoming more aggressive, and he was really pushing
himself to his limits.
dedicating himself to the craft of playing video games. He also became really obsessed with anti-woke.
Oh, Star Wars, not nice of the old Republic.
It's such a simple concept, like, oh, you used to believe that, oh, well, we just want better games,
instead of woke-ism stuff. And then you have, like, pretty much all these contents. And back then,
And it was really, it really worked back then.
It just like, you can just click immediately
since you're like pretty much so attached to that person,
you don't even want to go.
But throughout all of this,
he felt that watching Asmogold was making him a worse person.
Yeah, I got some like exceptional lives,
but I got into like exceptional lows.
It started to influence his non-gamer life,
pushing away his friends and family.
Pretty much ruined relationships
or even close ones, like family, friends,
or pretty much even like relationships with partners.
But it was hard to quit Asmogold
because Asman was good at wow,
so he should be good at life.
At least that was Charlie's logic at the time.
It's, I wish I could say complicated,
but it was just out of like pure ignorance
and just kind of like the unwillingness
to just kind of change
because you kind of invest in a person for so long,
you want to believe that this is all part of the movement.
And you just like, and since you have such like a good opinion
about him in your head, like pretty much all that goodwill
from like all those other days, like back then
where he used to have been a prominent wild player,
you would pretty much carry over that goodwill
to like any sense of variety he does.
But in 2023, Charlie's opinion on Asman
really starts to change,
specifically because of anti-woke content.
He realized that it was just kind of the same thing over and over and over.
These posts and videos were making less and less sense.
So 2023 was like the point I stopped watching in hardcore.
It got boring.
It got repetitive.
As McGull's endless attacks on DEI, woke, and political low hanging fruit just stopped being interesting.
The thing about anti-wokism is that it's the perfect propaganda tool.
Because fear mongering is, it's like the ultimate tool when it comes to like...
At least he has like tremendous self-awareness.
Easily converting your thing to like, hey, like you used to be a wild player,
but now you're like a full-time political content creator.
It's just honestly frustrating to me how I was just like led on for years,
and it just amounted to like absolutely nothing.
I just couldn't do it anymore.
These days, he sort of stopped watching Asmogold as much.
Charley still sees Asmogold because on Twitter, he's unavoidable.
But now, he sees a sadness in his former idol.
He moved away from his most lovable hobby, which was World of Warcraft,
but now he's just pretty much miserable with Twitter now.
Though Charley has stopped watching Asmogold,
he's found it difficult to get rid of all of his mannerisms entirely.
Asmogold was a major figure to Charley,
someone he's still struggling to move past.
He's still been kind of my disease.
All that rined mentality as of recently
became deeply diminished.
It begins to like pry open your like mental state.
There's just like nowhere to go
except the hole you kind of dug for yourself.
I get the Asmongold appeals
like watching something a little bit upsetting
like a blackhead popping video.
I guess, I don't understand it.
I have nothing in my life that I can compare this to.
Maybe I have the weird kind of autism where I'm literally obsessed with maximizing. I'm obsessed
with min-maxing. Okay, I'll use a gaming term for all you gamers in the chat. Okay, where everything
I do is trying to min-max. I'm trying to brain-max.
Races Coco Melon. This is true. I am, you know, when I'm, when I'm offline, I'm trying
to friend Max or I'm trying to brain Max trying to learn. There's a lot of information
out there. There's so much that I don't know. So I'm trying to fucking fill my brain with
as much information as possible.
So I can be a more competent commentator.
I'm working out body-maxing, right?
And it's strange to me that with the limited amount of time
that people have in their lives,
they choose to spend it watching Asmongold.
I don't know.
When it comes to Charley, he makes me feel hopeful about the future of
of Astmical Viewers. Because when we kind of look at what these people are going
through, a lot of that. I see this guy feeling like his
tumor is leading him on. It's like how you lead us on pretending you're going to
game. I literally do not even lie to you anymore. I don't even dignify you with a
lie. I tell you openly that it's not happening. So at this point you're just
on maximum copium for thinking that it's happening.
Again, I feel kind of hopeless, but Charlie was able to pull himself out of the sadness.
He was able to see through the veneer.
He used it as his massive fucking specialty gimmick, where it's like, oh well, I may be
a degenerate, but at least I'm an honest degenerate, and that's all that matters.
I could say the most like rancid, disgusting thing on the internet, but hey, like, I'm being honest guys, like, and that's just the most dangerous tool when it comes to like a, a, a cold figure.
The problem with anti-woke content is it's very addictive. It's a new enemy each day. It's finding something that you personally despise to attack. And, you know, if you can't see through that veneer, if you can't see through the bullshit, then you're just going to keep going into it more and more.
more. And even though I'm feeling a bit under the weather, I still think it's important for us to see the sun one last time.
Everything sucks these days. Our politics is just feeding us mindless nonsense.
Everybody hates. The world is getting so goddamn expensive, and it just seems like everything is going down.
And Asmogold is kind of like the prophet of all that. He is the crazy screaming street preacher,
who is like, the world's ending and everything is going to go bad. And you're like,
Yes, Asmogold, you're preaching to me.
I understand it. Asmogold offers them a space online
around other like-minded individuals who care about the same things they care about,
like video games, and why video games suck these days.
This is my outlook on it. There's like, if you have something in a game,
like you need to make sure that that is like good immediately.
Like the whole idea that like players, like you're not going to have somebody
that wants to spend more than like 10 minutes to have fun.
It's a sort of community that they don't have in the real world.
It's a space where they can feel more free and more fresh.
And I feel Asmogold is preying on that.
These people are lonely and have nowhere else to turn to.
And Asmogold is offering them a space where they can feel what they want to feel,
that they can say whatever bad words that the communities around them deem inappropriate.
They want to feel like they're part of everything.
I've taken over your disgusting mannerisms now.
I'm six foot four muscled up and enraged maga and amesapina from the government.
I apologize.
I mean people do actually, you know, I try to present myself as a
Decent role model that's part of the reason why I think whenever I go out to protest this hella people at those protests
We're like, bro. I'm here because you know, you got me out here
That's it. And that I think is infinitely more productive than
sitting at home all day fucking rotting and
And complaining about titties in video games or black people in video games
Or how the government should purge all of the non-white people from US soil and poor people deserve less because of their moral failings or whatever
People don't have conversations as much anymore. No because they don't want to and nobody thinks about anything
saying that. That's the reason why you think you do what you don't.
That you go to people, go to convenience over and over and over again,
instead of doing the more difficult thing and having real interactions with
people.
As the gold isn't turning these people anti-social, they already are,
but he's giving them an outlet,
a place where they can feel like they don't need to grow.
They don't need to change. They don't need to live outside their echo chamber.
They can just continue being who they are.
And that's where the problem lies.
He did an hour video yesterday of one of these woke games. It was called Reloaded. I watched the video
It definitely just came across as low quality content. Listen guys, it's a hard game
There's a lot of a lot of graphics going on here
I've definitely have noticed I saw it on his content and that's whether it was the way he was acting where he's just playing it up
I think because of
of the way he was playing it up.
It felt like the mask had dropped
and that was his reality.
And I'm like, oh, fuck, maybe.
See, one day people will also look back
at his like fake laughter and go gross.
Cause he can't play games yet.
He's really bad at gaming and he gets really mad,
which is I guess the closest,
the most similar I feel to him.
He's an idiot.
Asma Gold doesn't want you to improve.
He doesn't want you to become less lonely
and become a better person.
Because if you do, you might stop watching him.
I don't really think he thinks about this stuff.
I think he knows at his heart of hearts
that if these people start to get better
and don't think that all of these like immigrants, women,
DEI or the enemy, then they might try to leave.
They might see Asimogold as the enemy.
I just, it's crack, bro.
It's copium.
That's what it is.
Everything sucks in your life.
You're at your lowest point in your fucking life, and you look at a guy who, you know,
visually looks like he's always at the lowest point in his life, and he tells you that the
reason why you're at the lowest point in your life is not because of fucking capitalism,
not because of the way the system is designed, not because of your starting point, your fucking
shitty spawn point or whatever, and it actually has everything to do with the fact that there
are brown people out there, scary brown people, that there are trans people out there, and
that's what society cares about.
They don't care about you, a white man who has been fucked over, over and over again,
a white man who never achieved what you were destined to achieve, what you were told you
were supposed to achieve in a society that's supposed to be designed around your domination,
and it hits like fucking crack.
Yeah, and women, of course, women, oh, yuck, women, the biggest enemy of all, you know?
You're being replaced, the elites in society don't care about you, which they don't, there's
truth to that, and they're trying to replace you with a third world migrants, and women
Don't want to fuck you and it's because of feminism because they think they're better than you because they want to fuck
Someone hotter than you right?
It's not crack it is heroin exactly and it fucking dulls your senses and you sit there and you wallow in your filth without fucking ever
Assuming that you have the capacity or the power to self-improve
huh
And and that hope every day that hope of of a better future is robbed from you
Okay, and you wallow in yourself pity and
You follow this deep dark space where the only thing that gives you hope in your life not hope
But like the only thing that gives you joy in your life is reveling in the pain of others
Okay, that's what it is
That's how this works
Everything sucks for me and it sucks for me because of systematic factors, but not the correct systematic factors
systematic factors, such as, you know, brown people that were importing into society, right?
And women that don't want to fuck me because of feminism.
And all that do-marism, you just find yourself in this deeper and deeper pit of despair and
the only satisfaction you can ever derive, the only satisfaction you can ever derive
that deep pit of despair is to basically get together with a bunch of other people who also
are just as sad as you and cyber-stalk enemies. The sense of community that you arrive at in places
like Asmongold's community, in places like Sexpestini's community, are entirely designed around
enemies, okay? And they're not usually even ideological enemies, sometimes ideological enemies,
But oftentimes, it's a figurehead that is a stand-in for the ideological enemy.
It can be a Twitch streamer that your favorite content creator has deep envy and resentment for.
Attack him. You're attacking him to do politics. And I see this.
I see this all the time with, again, Epstein's fan base, right?
They're not normal. They spend every single waking moment like spamming clips to be like,
Let's go. There's actually a little bit of motion around like, you know, Assad is in trouble
Federal government's coming after him. Let's go. Let's fucking slam as many clips as possible on the timeline
Let's let's take a little bit. Let's chip away at his, uh, you know, high horse fuck this guy, right? You didn't do anything
You didn't do anything. You didn't accomplish anything your life didn't get better
You just felt a sense of satisfaction because you're trying to drag others down to where you're at and it's not gonna even fucking work
work. With Asmengold, it's also me, but also beyond me, it's random video game journalists,
right? Random transgender content creators on the internet, there's tremendous satisfaction
from kicking them down, kicking them down a peg while they're already on the ground.
Yeah, a reminder that no matter how bad things get for you, it's always going to be worse
for that person in that immediate moment when you're cyber-stalking them, when you're
A-logging them, when you're actually trying to ruin their fucking lives.
And that's it.
You're talking about this?
You're talking about it like this is exactly the sort of thing they derive satisfaction
from?
It is.
You talking about it like this is the, no, no, no, no.
I don't think my recognition of why they tap the glass and how deeply unhealthy it is is
actually going to offer them satisfaction.
Maybe, right?
Maybe.
I'm sure some of them get excited.
They're like, oh, he's talking about me.
Oh, I've got to him, right?
But what they don't understand is I am trying to fucking lend them a helping hand.
Like I legitimately want them to do better. I want these people to do better. I want everyone to do better
Okay
So when I talk about this stuff, it's not to like disparage these people and be like oh fuck you
You know each shouldn't die. It's the genuinely be like I hope you can snap out of it
I hope this is a moment where you think you're tapping the glass, but the glass is tapping back at you and
You get scared
And then hopefully, you look at the reflection and you see what you've become and you make
the necessary changes in your life to get better.
Like, as in one of the biggest tuition versus communities, wireless fuck, we'll just say
it's about a trans woman with 10 concurrent viewers and nobody cares.
I don't see these people as people in comparison to a dog.
Remember when this was against the GOS?
Yeah.
Best of you staying so strong as people are demons. Well, I mean
Guys like look someone compiled
Tweets from this random trans Twitter user
Okay, just so they can get together as a community and fucking rip into them, right?
Fucking lay into this person right make their day fucking awful and then they take it the next level
They go to the account and they're in the fucking replies and they're like fuck you you're fucking trans
You're gonna kill yourself blah blah blah blah blah all this shit like when you're doing that
Right when you're fucking doing that you're not in a healthy mindset man
You're literally one step removed from unironically engaging in suicide by cop or a school shooting
The only thing holding you back in that situation from committing a heinous act of violence is basically the fact that you're too afraid to go outside and encounter another human being, thankfully.
It's crazy.
A lot of these shadows aren't fully rooted in this hopelessness and they just think they found community. They can easily be pulled out by showing them there's another way.
another way. Yeah, I think so. I mean, there's definitely a lot of people. There's definitely
a lot of people in even this community that probably found themselves in their lowest
point in their lives at a certain point, maybe a couple of years ago, maybe as recently as
last year, right? And they were engaging in this kind of behavior, but something shifted.
Maybe they heard Asmongold explain a concept that they were more knowledgeable of. And
that caused them to snap out of it right because that happens a lot
I love you, I'm talking to the people I love, I'm talking to you.
I'm a little better at your life, son.
I'm not a fan of anyone.
Like, why would I, like, for example, like if a dog is barking at me, I don't ask myself
and think, oh my God, I'm so sad this dog was mean.
I don't even think about it, it's an animal to me.
I don't, I don't even, like, I, I, might sound bad, I don't even see these people as people.
I don't.
I don't treat them like people, I don't see them as people.
All I do is I just see what they say and I respond to it.
What do you help me pull me out of one of my lowest points of my life a few years back?
I mean I try, I try to do that.
That's the goal, you know?
Hey, he's talking about me.
I used to watch Asmongole.
My sister told me to start watching you.
Asmongole started talking about women all weird and I was like, this guy, you are so
much better and actually makes sense.
I learned so much this government that was non-binary,
pansexual, thank you, I've become a better person
and thank you, sis.
Hell yeah, chatter.
I feel like nowadays, nobody wants to critically think
about anything.
Nobody wants to have their own opinion about anything.
Like, I've noticed this a lot.
Because in the real world, that's what people would tell them
if they had community.
A lot of these men are isolated.
They lack a support system that sort of keeps them
from going down the dark rabbit holes.
I think after COVID, a lot of people became even more
isolated and unaware of what was going to happen to them.
And they went down deep, dark rabbit holes, blaming all of these other issues for their
problems rather than what was actually causing them, which was their isolation, loneliness,
and lack of human communication.
We as people need other people in order to feel whole.
Human society was born out of a need to congregate.
And when that community is taken away and completely disregarded, we sort of lose our
sense of identity.
We lose who we are.
And when someone offers that sort of sense of community, it becomes even more important.
Influencers give online individuals a community.
And Asmogold is offering them a different sort of community, one that isn't more politically
correct.
Remember a time when you could be on Xbox and say a whole bunch of slurs, Asmogold
offers you that space.
And there's a discord where you can hang out and talk your shit.
The discord is basically a shit pose.
It doesn't really have like anything to do with the general like Asmogold stuff.
It's just like a little hangout place.
You can be exactly who you want to be, even if that person is, you know, kind of gross.
You don't need to improve. You don't need to get better.
You don't need to be a happier person, because you can be an Asmogold viewer.
You can be part of the club.
And now for something that I hope doesn't make too many Asmogold viewers uncomfortable,
and I'm gonna go touch some grass.
I don't think anyone has ever done a fucking like psycho analysis on as many old fans in
general I so which creators fans should I look into next like I feel like if he did something
like this in my community I suspect that the outcome will be very different and I know that
because journalists have profiled my fans.
He seemed visibly annoyed with this video
and you watching it, who?
So what's interesting about this is
journalists have reached out to my fans like NPR
and other numerous outlets have reached out
to my fans at times when they're doing a profile on me.
And they've had them featured in the reporting
in the reporting and it's a very different vibe. What do I hear all the time? When I
go outside, when I go to protests, when I go to, you know, when I go canvas or do
campaign events and things like that, people come up to me and they say, man,
you changed my life. I wouldn't be out here doing activism if it wasn't for you.
I wouldn't be doorknock if it wasn't for you. I wouldn't be at this protest if it
wasn't for you, things of that nature. And that's exactly the change that I want to
see in the world. That's exactly what I want my output to look like. I don't want to lead
you down a pit of despair to be sad, lonely, and angry all the fucking time. I want you
to be angry at the right things and use that anger and resentment for designing a more
productive future for yourself and others, right? That's why I always urge you to touch
Urge you to be normal, urge you to go out and fucking organize in your communities, organize labor unions in your workplace,
join the DSA,
go out and doorknock for candidates, right, foam bank.
That's it. I want you to be the best possible version of yourselves,
whereas I feel like a lot of people are trafficking in despair, they're merchants of despair, and a lot of content creators,
on the internet especially, they feed into this sadness and loneliness and they know,
maybe that's just who they are, maybe that's what they're most comfortable being, right?
But it works for them.
It works that their output is constant negativity.
And I know that they say that about me as well, but it's projection.
Okay?
And on that note ladies and gentlemen, I will bid you adieu and I will go hang out with friends and family
But I'll be back tomorrow
Okay, I love you all I love this community. I'm very proud of you
We do great work no matter what the fucking haters say
Anyway, and that's the first day back home, baby. That's why I did eight hours, you know LA. I'm revitalized
