• 0:09
  Speaker 2: a fascist. A Yale free speech champion is falsely charged
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: with using a racial slur. Representative Sri Thanadar can't even

  Speaker 2: name Michigan cities and towns that he represents. Gavin Newsom

• 0:55
  Speaker 1: in the chat. Stay tuned.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: We're going to talk about your favorite subject today. All
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: this on Bungina Report, early edition.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: I'm a historian of totalitarianism.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: I look at fascist rhetoric.
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: I've been thinking about the sources of the worst kinds
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: of history for a quarter of a century.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: Experts say the constitutional crisis is here now.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: The Trump administration deporting hundreds of men without a trial.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: A massive purge at the FBI.
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: To make people afraid of speaking out against him.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: The video you just watched is a laughable New York
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Times article slash video feature titled We Study Fascism and
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: We're Leaving the U.S.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: It's these Yale professors.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Featured in this piece, Marcy Shore, Timothy Snyder, and Jason Stanley,
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: who warn that the Trump administration's supposed attack on civil
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: liberties is leading us down a fascist nightmare that they
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: have seen repeated throughout history. Apparently, we are in a
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: democratic emergency, according to these professors, and they claim that
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: because illegal MS-13 and trendy Aragua gang members are being
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: deported by the Trump admin, that we are now living
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: in a fascist nightmare. That's the argument being made right
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: now by these people.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Take a listen.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: What starts to matter is not what is concealed, but
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: what has been normalized.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: There's no limit to the depravity.
• 2:38
  Speaker 6: President Trump did not rule out the possibility of a
• 2:41
  Speaker 6: third term.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: And the sadism.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: The White House released this video titled ASMR Illegal Alien
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: Deportation Flight.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: And the cruelty. that we are watching now play out
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: in real time. This facility is one of the tools
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: in our toolkit that we will use. Oh, the cruelty.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: Okay, so if you're listening and you couldn't actually see
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: that video, you're seeing the El Salvador prison, you're seeing
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: Trump deporting actual gang members. There was the Trump admin
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: post joking about deportation ASMR when you saw them in chains,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: these illegal migrant gang members. And it's being presented by
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: the New York Times, these professors, as sort of a
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: horror movie. You have the scary music in the background,
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: these ominous sound bites and ominous B-roll footage. Honestly, I'm
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: kind of shocked still to this day that Democrats are
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: taking this stance. The notion that enforcing immigration laws and
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: deporting people who have committed heinous crimes is somehow fascist
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: and authoritarian is absurd. Protecting citizens is from dangerous criminals
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: is one of, in my opinion, one of the very
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: few legitimate powers of the government. Michael would agree with
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: that as a libertarian. He's somebody who's like, virtually everything
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: the government does, not justifiable in any way.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: He's like, they should not be doing that. Leave it
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: up to the people. I'm a little more right-wing.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: And I don't necessarily agree with him on all these libertarian,
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: almost anarchical points that he makes. But the point is,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: This is one issue where Michael and I are like, yeah,
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: this is the job of the government.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: You protect your people.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: From an invasion of illegal migrant gang members who have
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: set up a criminal network spanning across the entire continental US.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: I think it's their legitimate authority to get rid of them.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: So Democrat open border policies, by the way, this isn't
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: even mentioning for the last four years, have abandoned the
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: American people. We had drug traffickers, violent gang members flooding
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: into this country.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: And then living off the taxpayer's dime.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: And I haven't even mentioned the Blue City Soft on
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: crime policies. This is a party that has purposely turned
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: a blind eye to violence and chaos under the guise
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: of compassion.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: But it's not compassionate. It's not progressive.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: What this is is reckless and dangerous, and it's national suicide.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: It's a brazen violation of the social contract Honestly, this
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: whole thing goes to show really how stupid the intelligentsia
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: class is. These are the people in that video who
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: are educating America's young people. That's frankly the most terrifying
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: part of the whole feature because they are deeply, deeply stupid.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: They have no idea what's going on.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: What the role of the government is, frankly. Apparently this
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: is a due process problem. We're spiraling into fascism when
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: all that's happening is we're getting rid of illegals who
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: have committed heinous crimes in this country.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: I would like there to be mass deportations.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: Even more than the people who have committed heinous crimes
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: and who are part of a gang. I would like
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: everybody to be gone who's not here legally because you're
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: devaluing labor in this country.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: That's not what's happening. And they're still calling it fascism.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Here is Stanley, one of these professors, predictably arguing that
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: we need people like him and his corrupt friends to
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: save America. We need the media, we need academia, we
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: need the courts to save us because all three of
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: them represent, I don't know, the cornerstones of democracy.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Very predictable argument. Take a listen.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: The moral of Poland is that our democratic institutions, the media,
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: the university, and the courts... are essential. You know you're
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: living in a fascist society when you're constantly going over
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: in your head the reasons why you're safe. What we
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: want is a country where none of us have to
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: feel that way.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: It's incredible.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: It's incredible because media, academia, the courts, Some of the
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: three most corrupted and broken institutions in this country, poisonous,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: politically corrupted institutions, all three have abandoned the truth for
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: their activism.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: That's really the heart of the problem with all three
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: of these. There's no regard for truth, for honesty, for.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: Just being objective in general. It is all sacrificed at
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: the altar of left-wing political activism.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: And the fact that I'm saying this is why the
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: professors in the video are flipping out in the first place.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: Because they know that the jig is up. They know
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: that no one trusts them anymore.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Rightfully so. They don't deserve to be trusted.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: But they are lashing out because their gatekeeping powers are gone.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: They can't cope with the idea that regular people like
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: you and me would not look to them as the
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: arbiters of truth in society. They're saying, well, this is
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: clearly just fascism and we're going to pack up our
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: bags and go to Canada instead. By the way, let's
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: not get it twisted on Canada. This is a country
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: that will freeze your bank account for justifiable political speech.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: Trucker protesters had their whole lives destroyed by the Canadian government.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: That is fascism, but they're fleeing to Canada because the
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: government happens to align with them politically.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: So it's very dishonest. And they're proving their.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: Point that academia, that our institutions are broken by coming
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: out and attacking people who don't trust them. Of course
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: we don't trust you because you're attacking us. It's like
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: a cycle.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Do you see what I mean?
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: And they really can't get past what is making people
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: not trust them because they spiral further and further into
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: the purity politics, into demonizing people who question them when
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: they lie to the public. This next clip is how
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: you know these people are left-wing activists and not truth seekers.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: Take a listen.
• 9:00
  Speaker 7: The golden age of America has only just begun.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: America has long had an exceptionalist narrative. Fascism can happen elsewhere,
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: but not here.
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: But talking about American exceptionalism is basically a way to
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: get people to fall into line. If you think that
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: there's this thing out there called America, and it's exceptional,
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: that means that you don't have to do anything. Whatever
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: is happening, it must be freedom. And so then what
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: your definition of freedom is just gets narrowed and narrowed
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: and narrowed and soon you're using the word freedom, but
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: what you're talking about is authoritarianism.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: I find it endlessly fascinating that these professors assume that
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: MAGA supporters or just regular Americans in general believe that
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: without question, America.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Is always right, always exceptional.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: Because either these professors are dumb or they're purposely pretending
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: to fundamentally misunderstand the entire movement. MAGA is actually the
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: opposite of blind American exceptionalism. MAGA represents radical self-reflection. It
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: is a populist movement of Americans who collectively said America
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: is no longer exceptional. We have corrupted universities and open
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: borders and neocon nation building that has only led to
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: chaos and destruction here and abroad. Fake news media limits
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: on speech, especially internet discourse. At its heart, really, MAGA
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: is a realization that we are not the same country
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: we used to be. It's millions of Americans waking up
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: and saying, we don't recognize our homeland anymore. MAGA literally
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: means make America great again, meaning we aren't great now
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: and we need to restore our pride, our honor, our
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: greatness to the point where we have full 180 rejected
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: fundamental Republican values, Republican leaders even. We went from a
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: party that nominated Mitt Romney to one that recognizes Mitt
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: Romney was no better than Barack Obama.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: The group that, ironically.
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: Cannot look introspectively happens to be the left and the
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: professors in that video. They have so much faith in
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: this broken system and in their own intelligence that they're
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: alienating their own base. which is looking around like us
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: and saying, we don't recognize America anymore. We don't recognize
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: this place anymore. Now, we come to different conclusions than
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: the political left and regular people on the political left.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: But what's obvious is that the American people know something
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: is off. Whether you're left-wing, right-wing, something's off in this country.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: And we are calling for reform and introspection.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: And what these people are saying, these professors in the video,
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: is that Having that introspection, recognizing that America is not
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: the exceptional self that it once was, that's somehow an
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: attack on democracy. When the media, CIA, and big tech
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: colluded to suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story, that actually
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: was an attack on democracy.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: That was an attack on our institutions. But those professors
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: won't say that. When elements... of the Biden admin.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Including the White House, directed the censorship of topics and
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: people on social media, that was an attack on democracy,
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: on fundamental constitutional rights. That was a fascist tactic waged
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: by the Biden admin, but those professors won't say that.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: They didn't mention it at all because their expertise only
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: goes so far as to identify historical fascism in modern
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: political candidates that they happen to dislike.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: Do you see why nobody trusts them anymore?
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: Do you see why they have no legitimate right to
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: be leading the intelligentsia of America? Why we should be
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: looking at them as the arbiters of truth when clearly
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: they're partisan hacks?
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: Clowns.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: They are clowns.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: And I'm glad that they are not teaching anymore because
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: American students deserve better.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: By the way, I have... Oh, I did. I saw
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: that yesterday. Who did that? Did you do that, Michael?
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: Guy did it? Oh, thanks, Guy.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: All right, let's talk about really an enraging story that
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: Molly Hemingway shared yesterday on X. I have to share
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: it with you guys because it is related to Yale,
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: of all places. Again, these professors are Yale professors who
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: are fleeing to Canada.
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: So a.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Yale free speech advocate is now, I guess, was accused
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: of a heinous racist act. And the whole thing turned
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: out to be completely fake. So And I can promise
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: you this next story, these authoritarian experts did not stand
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: up for this woman because, again, their outrage, their historical
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: understanding of fascism is very selective. For nearly a year,
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: a woman named Lauren Noble, a First Amendment advocate from
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: New Haven, Connecticut, has lived an absolute nightmare. She was
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: arrested last May after a parking attendant accused her of
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: using a racial slur, a claim entirely fabricated. So Lauren
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: faced disorderly conduct and three counts of breach of peace,
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: which can I just say, I don't believe in.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Using terrible racial slurs. I would never do it to.
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: Somebody else, but I don't think that it should be
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: a situation where you're charged with some sort of crime,
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: disorderly conduct, breach of peace.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's a little bit ridiculous.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: I thought we had the first amendment in this country
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: But she didn't actually say the word, and that's what
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: makes this story so outrageous. Despite her pleas for police
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: to review surveillance footage, the case proceeded, cost her tens
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: of thousands of dollars in legal fees, nearly a year
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: of stress, and in March, the case entirely crumbled because
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: the prosecutor dropped all charges citing insufficient evidence, inconsistencies, and
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: credibility issues. The footage, which had been available all along,
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: revealed no confrontation whatsoever, just her calmly parking and walking away.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: But despite this, local left-wing media eagerly ran with the story,
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: framing it as part of this broader narrative that the
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: right-wing is incredibly racist. Lauren is the founder of the
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: Buckley Institute at Yale, an organization championing intellectual diversity and.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Free speech at the school.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: So she very reasonably suspects that this was more about
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: silencing her ideas than seeking some kind of justice. By
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: the way, Lauren has not even received an apology from
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: her accuser, the police, or the media that spread the
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: allegations without even fact-checking. So what is this an example of?
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: An ideology that has infected the justice system and the
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: media apparatus. A left-wing, poisonous, cancerous ideology that is actually
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: subverting our system, subverting due process in this country and
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: the truth. But you won't hear that story mentioned by
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: the Yale professors, Marcy Shore, Timothy Snyder, and Jason Stanley.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: You'll only hear that.
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: Trump is a fascist for deporting, wife-beating, human trafficking, illegal
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: MS-13 gang members because that amounts to fascism.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: Really cool, guys. All It's not just the MS-13.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: Gang members that have got to go, that have got
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: to be kicked out of this country. It is everyone
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: who is freeloading off of America, off of the American people.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: And this is not just a U.S.
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: Problem.
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: This is happening across the West. This is a almost
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: global project. Mass immigration is being weaponized across all Western countries.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: I want you to take a listen to to GB
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: News interviewing a man attempting to immigrate to the UK.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: This truly is astounding. Take a listen.
• 17:11
  Speaker 8: Why should English people pay for you to have a house?
• 17:23
  Speaker 9: Maybe they give me a house. Give me anything I
• 17:27
  Speaker 9: can need. Give me.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: Just give it. Yeah. Why?
• 17:32
  Speaker 7: Why?
• 17:33
  Speaker 9: Because people in England is perfect.
• 17:37
  Speaker 8: Oh, so you think we're all rich people?
• 17:42
  Speaker 9: So we can give, okay.
• 17:43
  Speaker 8: Okay. Can I tell you something?
• 17:47
  Speaker 9: We are not all rich people.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Same goes for here in the United States.
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: The guy can barely speak English, but he knows how
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: to say, give me house, give me anything I need.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: And isn't this what's happening here in the United States
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: as well? There are a very large.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: Number of people who come here seeking free stuff, seeking
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: benefits from the American taxpayers.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: Most of whom, like the British, are not rich.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: We have American citizens on the streets begging, homeless veterans,
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: fentanyl addicts. But there's clothing, food, and shelter for illegals
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: in this country brought to you by the taxpayers.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: Again, this is a violation of the social contract.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, the more brazen one is to say, let's
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: just have a network of foreign illegal criminal gay members
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: operating across the entire continental US and then call it
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: fascism when Trump tries to do something about it. That's
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: a pretty big violation of the social contract, what Biden did,
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: just having this swarm of illegals invade our country.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: For four years, like millions of people.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: But it's also a violation of the contract to say,
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: I know. We're going to bring in illegal migrants into
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: this country. You're going to foot the bill for every
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: part of their lives. And also, American citizens, those guys
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: are on the streets. We're not going to do anything
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: about them. We have serious problems, most of them created
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: by the illegal immigration crisis, by our open border. We
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: have American citizens addicted to drugs, unable to contribute to society,
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: living a.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: Hellish existence, a hellish, hellish existence. There's really not much
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: for them.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: We're pouring millions of dollars into people who shouldn't even
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: be here. Meanwhile, American citizens are suffering because of the
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: destructive drugs. By the way, oftentimes manufactured in China, brought
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: over here. Really, it's a bioweapon. Into this country, nobody's
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: doing anything about it. Complete violation of the social contract.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: It also probably makes me a fascist to say this,
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: but Representative Sri Thanadar, the guy who was trying to
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: impeach President Trump, he should not be in Congress.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: This man was born in India. He cannot speak English properly.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: And he's representing American citizens trying to, I don't know,
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: be a leader in this country, tell us all what
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: to do. And it's very obvious that he is not
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: a native born American. Here he was just yesterday.
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: Said, nobody has said to me, Mr.
• 20:23
  Speaker 9: Tanithar, the seven articles of impeachment that you presented to
• 20:28
  Speaker 9: the U.S. Congress, they're not good.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: You missed the point. They're not legally right. He didn't
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: do that. No one says that.
• 20:41
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: You guys know, maybe you know, I don't know if
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: I've mentioned this before, but my grandmother was born in Spain.
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: My grandfather is of Mexican descent. He was born in Arizona.
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: but he is of Mexican descent. And he actually met
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: my grandmother on a deployment in Spain. My grandfather was
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: the first of his family. He was one of 15
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: to graduate from high school, first child to graduate high school.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: And he joined the military right after high school, goes
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: on a deployment, gets stationed in Spain where he meets
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: my grandmother, who obviously Spanish citizen born there. And they married,
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: they had four children. My mother, of course, one of them.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: And my grandmother eventually, of course, became a US citizen.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: She taught herself English by reading newspapers and studying magazines.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: And she did it all as an adult, which if
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: you don't think about learning languages, it's really hard to
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: learn a new language as an adult. My grandmother, Spanish,
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: she's got an accent. She is now an American citizen,
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: but became one much later in life.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: She is such a patriot. She loves America. so flippin' much.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: If you try to say, oh, you're Spanish, she'll be like, no,
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: I'm American. And she'll say it with her accent. And
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: as a little girl in Spain, my grandmother was just
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: infatuated with.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: American culture, American fashion, movies, optimism.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: She just loved everything about America. More than probably a
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: lot of Americans appreciate this country. Certainly more than those
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: Yale professors that we covered earlier in the show. And
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: so I thought it would be interesting to ask my
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: grandmother her thoughts on foreign-born individuals representing this country.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: So I asked her last week, I said.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: What do you think about foreign-born citizens holding public office,
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: becoming members of Congress or federal judges?
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: You know what she said to me? She said they shouldn't.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: And I said, well, yeah, yeah, that means that somebody
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: like you could never hold office. Does that make you
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: feel inferior, like a second-class citizen? And she said, it
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: is necessary to to protect this country from being run
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: by people who are not steeped in American culture.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: That's what she said.
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: It makes sure that the people who are leading this
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: country have a deep sense of loyalty to the United
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: States of America, people whose values and identity were formed
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: by America and nowhere else. Now, would my yaya, Maria
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: del Pilar Campos, make an amazing member of Congress and
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: vote really spectacularly?
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she would.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: But for every Maria del Pilar Campos, there is a
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: Sri Thanedar and an Ilhan Omar. Here is Sri unable
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: to even name Michigan cities and towns that he represents.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Take a listen.
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 23:33
  Speaker 7: What are the five gross points cities?
• 23:37
  Speaker 9: Well, look, I'm not here to answer a quiz. I'm
• 23:42
  Speaker 9: here to say that I'm going to fight for the
• 23:44
  Speaker 9: people of Detroit. I'm going to fight for my constituents
• 23:49
  Speaker 9: and all of the growth points and all of Taylor
• 23:51
  Speaker 9: and every course, every part of the 13th district.
• 23:56
  Speaker 6: Let me just do this real quick.
• 23:57
  Speaker 7: Gross point, gross point park, gross point woods, gross point
• 24:01
  Speaker 7: farms and gross point choice.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: At this point, I just say case closed. Like get
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: rid of this man. Every single foreign born individual who
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: was attempting to run this country. And by the way,
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: let me just mention that my dad was, he was
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: born and raised in the seventh congressional district of Wisconsin
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: and Many of you probably know he served in Congress
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: for many years from 2010.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: For another decade or so.
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: And my dad represented the 7th Congressional District in Wisconsin,
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: the district that he was born and raised in. And
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: he knew every single city, town, and unincorporated municipality in
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: that district. And by the way, the 7th District is
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: the largest in the state. It covers a third of
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: Wisconsin because it's all rural. He knew every single inch
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: of it.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: Because you know what? He was raised there. He was
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: born there. He lived there his entire life. And that's
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: how it should be.
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: Americans should be represented by people who were born and
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: raised in the congressional district that they're representing. But at
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: the very least, if they're not going to be born
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: in that congressional district, if they're not going to be
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: raised there and living there for a long time, at
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: the very least, they should be born in the United
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: States of America.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: This is not that hard.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: If we have this role for the president, Natural-born citizens
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: are only allowed to serve as President of the United States.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: We should expand that out to Congress, to the courts.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: You guys know that. I covered it.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: A third of the judges in D.C., the federal judges,
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: are not natural-born citizens. And many of the non-natural-born citizens,
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: these foreign-born individuals who are federal judges, are the ones
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: causing so many problems for President Trump as he's trying
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: to deport illegals who are terrorizing American citizens.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: So it's a huge problem. We need to be represented and.
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: Served by people who actually are steeped in American culture,
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: are from here.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Who get it. By the way, Mr.
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom, Governor Gavin Newsom, who we all know is
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: trying to run for president, is now attempting to roll
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: back benefits for illegal migrants because his state is literally
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: going bankrupt.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: California is facing a staggering.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: $ 12 billion budget deficit. And California, they have this state-funded
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: health care program for illegals that now exceeds its budget.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: Not even just like, it doesn't just cost this much.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: It exceeds its budget by $ 2. 7 billion, with over 1.6
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: million people enrolled. So Gavin Newsom's got this problem, and
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: he's now frozen new applications for low-income illegal adults starting
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: in 2026. though current enrollees and children will remain unaffected.
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: Newsom also announced that starting in 2027, illegal adults on
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: Medi-Cal will be required to pay a $ 100 monthly premium,
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: which is a big deal because, again, this was supposed
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: to be a no-cost coverage situation, kind of like a
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: universal health care California situation. Now, Newsom, I can't even
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: believe I'm telling you guys this, but Newsom is actually
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: blaming President Trump for his state going bankrupt. And the
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: argument here is that the economy is allegedly really bad
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: thanks to President Trump, and so therefore it's Trump's fault
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: that California is so financially mismanaged. Kind of unreal this
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: is even being said, but that is what Gavin Newsom
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: is arguing right now. And this just goes to underline
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: the broken social contract, the failure to really take care
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: of the people that you're allegedly representing. There are hardworking,
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: struggling Californians. It's an expensive state. It's a very expensive state.
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: And these are people who pay taxes, who follow the law,
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: who contribute to their communities. And they have been forced
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: to foot the bill for state-funded health care for people
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: living in this country illegally.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: Can you guys even imagine that? I mean, it's just absurd.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: And again, this was the policy that is now spiraling
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: the state into financial ruin. And people who were struggling
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: to afford their own medical bills, insurance premiums, billions of
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: dollars are instead fuddled into covering health care costs for
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: people who have not contributed to the system in the
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: same way.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: It is a deep, deep injustice.
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: And again, the only reason that Gavin Newsom is changing
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: his tune right now, the same reason that Keir Starmer
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: is changing his tune in the UK, is for political clout.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom wants to run for president. He doesn't care
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: about Californians and native-born Americans. He never has.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: That's never been the priority. This is a warped ideology
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: where the argument is that the marginalized in society always
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: need to be protected.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: They're protected classes.
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: And oftentimes, what's defined as a marginalized person in society
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: are actually the criminals.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: Because there's always an excuse for bad behavior. You're here illegally.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: You robbed a bodega. You are stealing a vehicle. I mean,
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: this is a huge problem in Chicago. And the argument is, well,
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: they've had a rough life. They're doing that for a reason.
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: And so we need to be compassionate. And the people
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: that end up being hurt the most by these soft-on-crime policies,
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: by social programs for illegal migrants, are the people who
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: are doing things right, the people who are paying taxes
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: and working and contributing to their communities and being normal,
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: law-abiding citizens.
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: Those people get hurt.
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: And the marginalized, who always have an excuse for their
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: bad behavior, they actually are rewarded for doing terrible things
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: in society. That is the Gavin Newsom way, and he's
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: now trying to rebrand. but I don't think we should
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: let him. We know what he stands for. I want
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: to turn to President Trump and tariffs now, because yesterday,
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: Kraft Heinz announced that they are investing $ 3 billion in
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: American manufacturing amid President Trump's tariffs. This is reportedly their
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: largest investment in America in at least a decade. This is,
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: of course, a huge deal and one of many companies
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: investing in the United States in the midst of Trump's
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: fair trade policies. And this was the plan for President
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: Trump all along, right, is to bring back jobs and
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: industry to this country.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: And with the Uniparty.
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: For years now, for decades, really, the free trade dogma
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: has gutted the American middle class. Because it turns out
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: that it's kind of difficult to compete with slave labor.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: It's kind of hard to compete with the Chinese Uighur
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: slave labor camps here in America, where we actually pay
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: people fair wages. And it's so weird how the left
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: cares about protecting the marginalized in society, marginalized Muslims specifically, right?
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: Muslims are being, of course, discriminated against all across the West,
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: is the argument being made. Unless, of course, they're Muslims
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: in Chinese slave labor camps. And then it's like, OK, no, actually,
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: Trump's a bad guy here.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: He's a fascist.
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: Trump is actively fighting the slave labor economy in China.
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: And the left's mad. The left's blackpilling.
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: It's so funny to see where they decide to care
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: about Muslims and marginalized people. And then suddenly it's, oh, well,
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: it'd be much more politically expedient for us to attack Trump.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: So we're just going to pretend like the Uyghurs in
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: the slave labor Chinese camp is not even happening. I
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: think we got to reassess good guys and bad guys
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: in society. What does China represent in the world? Who
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: is President Trump?
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, all of these.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: People and figures we have been lied to about. And
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: I think we need some more scrutiny of men in history,
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: of men in media, of men just in the current
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: political climate. But not every bad guy is actually a
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: good guy and vice versa. And unfortunately, Scott Jennings yesterday
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: decided to reinterpret Emperor Palpatine on CNN as some kind
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: of pro-law and order, pro-fair trade savior. So for non-Star
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: Wars fans, Emperor Palpatine is like the main antagonist. He's
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: a Sith Lord who orchestrates the fall of the Galactic
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: Republic and the rise of the Galactic Empire is thanks
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: to him.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: Scott Jennings, CNN, take a listen.
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: I think it's time that we took a different look
• 32:24
  Speaker 5: and a new look at the reign of Emperor Palpatine.
• 32:27
  Speaker 5: I just, I think maybe, I mean, you did.
• 32:30
  Speaker 7: A podcast on this.
• 32:31
  Speaker 5: I think he's getting a bad rap, and look what
• 32:33
  Speaker 5: he did. He took on an entrenched deep state at
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: the Jedi Council. He tried to bring order. To the,
• 32:39
  Speaker 5: you know, he wanted free and fair and reciprocal trade
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: around the galaxy. Protected law and order. Well, I think
• 32:45
  Speaker 5: some could argue that it was warranted given their rebellious activities.
• 32:48
  Speaker 5: I mean, he defended the empire against unelected hippies and
• 32:51
  Speaker 5: violent protesters. I'm just saying, it's been a while. We
• 32:57
  Speaker 5: may need to take a look at this again and say,
• 32:59
  Speaker 5: was he right? and maybe it's time to take a
• 33:03
  Speaker 5: different look at his leader.
• 33:03
  Speaker 7: Was Palpatine right about everything?
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: Okay, so pretty funny reinterpretation of Star Wars. Obviously, it's
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: a joke. Emperor Palpatine was evil.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: I'm going to play for you guys an Alex Jones
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: clip where he explains why Emperor Palpatine was not acting
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: like some sort of right-wing Trump figure, but actually used
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: deep state-style covert operations and subversion to take control of
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: the empire.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Take a listen.
• 33:28
  Speaker 7: Emperor Palpatine was a little-known senator from Naboo, small planet.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: I just love this video.
• 33:34
  Speaker 7: He finances terrorists to attack the planet. And then he
• 33:40
  Speaker 7: plays victim and says that the pacifist republic isn't doing
• 33:44
  Speaker 7: enough to help him with the terrorist invasion, the Trade
• 33:48
  Speaker 7: Federation invasion. who even speak in Chinese accents. It's all geopolitical.
• 33:55
  Speaker 7: And so, yeah, little aliens with Chinese accents. He then
• 33:59
  Speaker 7: goes and complains and catapults himself in the crisis into
• 34:04
  Speaker 7: the role of chancellor. Because he was the victim, but
• 34:08
  Speaker 7: now he demanded something be done. He'd been a pacifist previously.
• 34:12
  Speaker 7: Now he's chancellor. Episode two launches terror attacks all over
• 34:18
  Speaker 7: the galaxy with groups he's secretly financing through his backers
• 34:22
  Speaker 7: in the Trade Federation. He turns around and double-crosses in
• 34:24
  Speaker 7: the end. Lord Vader, kill Viceroy Gunray and everyone else
• 34:29
  Speaker 7: in the– And in the end, he then sets up,
• 34:32
  Speaker 7: after he has the police state in place, he sets
• 34:34
  Speaker 7: up the Jedi and says they're terrorists and has the
• 34:37
  Speaker 7: anti-terror forces going and wipe them out. And then he
• 34:40
  Speaker 7: says he's launching a global intergalactic war to bring peace. Now,
• 34:46
  Speaker 7: the media could not understand. Wait, and they actually wrote articles.
• 34:51
  Speaker 7: Emperor Palpatine's attacking himself? It makes no sense. Adults cannot
• 34:56
  Speaker 7: understand children-level ideas, okay? Child-level ideas. Child-level. How can you
• 35:04
  Speaker 7: not understand it?
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: I think it's willful ignorance.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: I do.
• 35:08
  Speaker 7: Very simple.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: Okay, so Emperor Palpatine's rise to power in Star Wars
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: is actually a perfect illustration of the problem-reaction-solution strategy used
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: in covert government tactics. By secretly orchestrating the Clone Wars,
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: controlling both the Galactic Republic and the Separatist Alliance, Palpatine
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: manufactures a galactic crisis that spreads fear and desperation. This
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: engineered chaos prompts the public and the Senate to call
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: for stronger security measures and expanded executive powers, which Palpatine
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: conveniently provides, consolidating his own control. The climax of this
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: manipulation is his declaration of the galactic empire justified as
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: a necessary step to restore peace and order. We see
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: this in society all the time. He is not President Trump.
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: He is not the populist new right movement. This is
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: a deep state tactic. The first example that comes to
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: mind for me would be COVID. Palpatine is basically Anthony Fauci.
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: Fauci's NIH funneled taxpayer funds for research into the Wuhan
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: Institute of Virology that sparks the global pandemic And then
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: Fauci and the rest of the federal government, they swoop
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: in and they say, everyone's going to wear a mask.
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: You're all going to take an experimental vaccine. You're going
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: to be fired if you don't take it. Oh, and
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: then we're going to shut down this country. Unless, of course,
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: you're a major corporation. Then you can operate your Amazon,
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: your Walmart, you're totally fine. But if you're a mom
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: and pop business, if you're a gym, if you're a restaurant,
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: you're shut down. You saw the massive transfer of wealth
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: in this country, the curtailment, this is the key point,
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: the curtailment of basic civil liberties, all to confront the
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: a so-called crisis that our government created in the first place.
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: And I'm not even saying that the government intended for
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: the global pandemic, although there's an argument to me that
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: they did, but when it started, they saw this as
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: an opportunity and they ran with it. Consider also 9-11.
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: And we don't have the 9-11 files yet, which we
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: should get 9-11 files. Like we have been calling for
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: Epstein files, JFK, RFK, MLK. But we do know that
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: had our intelligence agencies shared information with one another before 9-11,
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: it probably was avoidable. And thank goodness they didn't avoid
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: it for their own sake, because what the government got
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: out of it was too good to be true. They
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: obliterated the Constitution, justified the surveillance state and endless wars
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: in the Middle East in response to 9-11. So Emperor Palpatine, really,
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: he's the embodiment of the deep state, not President Trump.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: I hope you all enjoyed that little interpretation.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: Drop a comment. Star Wars fan, 1977, I need to
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: hear what you think about this. All right. Oh, Guy's
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: a big Star Wars fan. He agrees. Good. I have
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: the approval of a Star Wars expert here.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: All right, I want to turn to a really dramatic
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: moment during RFK Jr.
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: 's congressional hearing yesterday.
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: Far left-wing activists illegally disrupted the proceedings, and among them
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: was actually Ben and Jerry's co-founder, Ben Cohen.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: Take a look at this.
• 38:08
  Speaker 8: I'm armed with less.
• 38:11
  Speaker 7: The budget I'm presenting today supports these goals and reflects them.
• 38:16
  Speaker 8: The witness will suspend. The committee will come to order.
• 38:28
  Speaker 8: Capitol Police are asked to remove the individuals from the
• 38:31
  Speaker 8: hearing room. Members of the audience are reminded disruptions will
• 38:37
  Speaker 8: not be tolerated.
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: Okay, so Ben Combs, he's just yelling. He's pointing his finger.
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: RFK Jr.
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: Jumps.
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: He thinks he's about to die right now. It was
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: actually kind of sad to look at.
• 38:48
  Speaker 8: RFK Jr.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: Is terrified.
• 38:49
  Speaker 8: Disruptions will not be permitted while the committee conducts its business.
• 38:53
  Speaker 6: Capitol Police are asked to remove the individuals from the hearing.
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: Throw them out of the building.
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: The first thing I thought when I saw that video
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: was like, isn't he a little old to be doing
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: this kind of thing?
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: When you see these people, these left-wing activists, they go in,
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: they disrupt an event, they start yelling. Usually they're in
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: the 18 to 26.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: 27 range. I don't know.
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: When you have white hair and you're balding, it feels
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: like you're just a little too old for this.
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: You should be, I don't know, you're a rich man.
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: You're Ben and Jerry's co-founder. Enjoy all the money you've made.
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Live a normal life. But he's deciding
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: to disrupt an RFK Jr.
• 39:33
  Speaker 9: Hearing.
• 39:33
  Speaker 7: Okay, fine.
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: What's interesting about Ben Cohen is actually he recently was
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: on the Tucker Carlson. Before I just say that, he
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: was protesting, I guess, in support of Gaza and like
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: the plight of Palestinians. But the protesters in that room
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: were protesting for a whole swath of things. They were
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: mad about the no due process for the illegals and
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: the Trump admin being fascist. They were protesting a lot
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: of stuff. But he was specifically talking about Gaza. Now,
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: what I was saying is, interestingly, Ben Cohen was recently
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: on the Tucker Carlson podcast. And I don't agree with
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: a lot of the crap Ben Cohen says. The vast
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: majority of it, I think, is just kind of lunatic.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: especially on social issues. But this was a really interesting
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: conversation when they discussed war. I want to play for
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: you this clip. Generally, you guys, we see somebody like
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: Ben Cohen, we think, lunatic.
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: Whatever he's doing, it's usually crazy.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: But then you see something like this that you actually
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: agree with, and it makes you stop and maybe do
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: some self-reflecting.
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: So take a listen.
• 40:37
  Speaker 6: I wrote it down because I thought you might be asking.
• 40:42
  Speaker 6: There was recently... a fighter jet that fell off an
• 40:49
  Speaker 6: aircraft carrier. So it was a $ 70 million fighter jet. So,
• 41:01
  Speaker 6: you know, that sounds kind of dramatic that, you know,
• 41:04
  Speaker 6: a $ 70 million fighter jet fell off an aircraft carrier.
• 41:10
  Speaker 6: But if you think about the Pentagon budget as a
• 41:14
  Speaker 6: box of Cheerios, that $ 70 billion would be one tenth
• 41:23
  Speaker 6: of one Cheerio, which is enough money if you take
• 41:29
  Speaker 6: it out of the Pentagon to build two new hospitals
• 41:33
  Speaker 6: in West Virginia. So what's crumbs to the Pentagon can
• 41:43
  Speaker 6: really provide some real stuff that we need here in
• 41:47
  Speaker 6: the U.S.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: OK, so what he's saying is that the war machine
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: robs Americans. It'll kill them, too. But for all of Americans,
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: it really robs us. And this is objectively true.
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: The United States military budget is approximately three times larger
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: than China's, the country with the second largest military budget.
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: It's been nonstop war for the last 80 years with
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: no end in sight. And it's completely unnecessary. And the
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: reason I wanted to play those two clips is because, well,
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: Ben Cohen seems crazy. And on a lot of issues,
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: he actually is crazy. And I disagree with him on
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: most things. We do agree that the war machine needs
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: to be reeled in.
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: And we can't go on like this.
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: We end the war in Afghanistan. And then immediately, we
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: involve ourselves in Ukraine. And that's not a coincidence. We
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: essentially spent the same amount of money in Afghanistan as
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: we're now spending with Ukraine. What I'm saying is the
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: point I'm trying to make is the new right, like
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: I said at the start of the show, is willing
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: to self-analyze, to think differently outside of traditional party politics.
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: And that means that we can sometimes find unlikely allies
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: on issues that we didn't expect. So even somebody who's crazy,
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: who's screaming in an RFK Jr., a hearing and who
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: has radical ideas about transgenderism, we can say, okay, we
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: actually do agree on the military industrial complex and we
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: can actually have a conversation about that and maybe find
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: an unlikely alliance here. And there's going to be opportunities
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: to do that with very different people who we disagree
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: with on a lot of different issues.
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: This is actually what Trump has done in his admin.
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: A lot of these guys who are part of the admin,
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm thinking about Tulsi Gabbard and RFK Jr.
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: Specifically, former Democrats. Maybe they still identify really as Democrats. Actually,
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: they probably don't anymore.
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: But the point is not traditional candidates that a Republican
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: president would pick for his cabinet. And he did because
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: he's thinking outside the box. He's thinking what actually aligns
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: with the populist new right, not just who's got an
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: R by their name.
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: And we have to be doing that too.
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: We have to be looking for unlikely allies wherever we
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: can if we want to actually see real change in
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: this country. All right, I want to get to a
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: maja win, speaking of RFK Jr., and a major shift
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: toward cleaner ingredients. In-N-Out announced yesterday that it will be
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: removing artificial food dyes from its menu items, aligning with
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: the Department of Health and Human Services initiative under RFK Jr.
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: to phase out synthetic dyes by the end of 2026.
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: And the change is, will affect strawberry shakes, their signature
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: pink lemonade, and the chain's ketchup, which will transition from
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: high-fructose corn syrup to real sugar. And in a statement
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: responding to the news, In-N-Out emphasized its commitment to providing
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: our customers with the highest quality ingredients. And although high-fructose
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: corn syrup has not been officially banned, Kennedy stated his
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: goal is to wean America off the additive, which is
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: objectively a good thing. The move from In-N-Out also comes
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: on the heels of Steak and Shake's decision to cook
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: its fries exclusively in 100% beef tallow, coining the term
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: RFK'd to represent its commitment to cleaner ingredients.
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: I am obsessed with In-N-Out.
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: Anytime we go to California or Texas or somewhere where
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: I can have In-N-Out, I'm a happy camper. So I'm
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: very happy to hear this news. Michael's is overrated. And
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: what's funny about this is Michael is a Steak and
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: Shake fan. I don't think Steak and Shake is that good.
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: I'm not that interested in it.
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: But both of our favorite chains are now trying to
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: join the Maha movement, which I'm very happy about. Wouldn't
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: it be so great if fast food in America, you
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: could just consume it and it wasn't just straight up poison?
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: Like it wasn't going to give you cancer so you
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: die at 45. That would be really nice. That would
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: be really, really nice. And unfortunately for most fast food places,
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: It's not just that it might be a little bit unhealthy,
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: but they don't use any kind of whole foods.
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: Everything is processed.
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: Everything has these dyes and these preservatives and these chemicals
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: that are destroying our bodies, that are killing.
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: People, literally.
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: So it would be wonderful if we could have a
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: real Maha movement where fast food chains actually stopped pumping
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: poison into the American people. It's not just a health crisis.
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: It's a national security crisis. We need to have people
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: who are strong and thriving if we're going to have
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: a strong and thriving country.
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: And again, like I said, unlikely alliance. Who would have
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: thought RFK Jr.
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: the son of a major Democrat political leader who has
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: spent his entire life being a Democrat, who ran for
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: president as a Democrat, is joining this admin and is
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: fighting for the health and flourishing of the American people
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: under a Republican administration. And it's only possible because President
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: Trump is willing to think outside the box and say,
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: you know what? I'm willing to have alliances and relationships
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: with people who don't necessarily fit that Republican box because
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: President Trump doesn't.
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: Fit in it himself. We got to be willing to
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: do that ourselves.
• 47:01
  Speaker 7: All right.
• 47:01
