Can you imagine a political landscape where the Democratic National Committee hinders opponents like Robert Kennedy Jr.? It's happening and not enough people are aware. 

Should the United States continue sending aid to Ukraine? Lee Carl doesn't think so. 

The final segment of this episode takes a sober turn as we address the uncomfortable topic of sexual abuse allegations, increasingly used as character assassination tools. Using the cases of Russell Brand and Mel Tucker, we discuss possible motivations behind such claims. 

Ending on a musical note, we take a trip down memory lane with Cal Smith's 'Country Bumpkin,' and send our love to the County Line Congregation. Remember, we're here to provide the best, so don't forget to subscribe, rate, review, and share this episode.

Speaker 2:

I make time for a bad bitch at his southbound getting a groove on playing another fast song. Lord, she knows I love it when she sings along and I know she'll save that break down till she gets here. I got Kobe on ice and I swear. Nothing waiting on you, but good love. Out here in my hemisphere Sun stays near, so gravitate and let your wife break, then we'll permeate. Don't hesitate. We can generate electricity, we can levitate. Now what you think, ridin' from the 601 with love, no shagging the sun, still a country dog, and I hope these bars find you just ridin', you rockin' that. Look, your ass is still tight and if you ever fuckin' with a 601, girl, get with me and we'll have some fun.

Speaker 2:

Sun set, everybody got their own gun Bowlin' by the river watchin' cane poles feelin' beer cans up with 22 hoes Just makin' contact locatin' me. I wanna see you when you come back to something waitin' here just for you. Fuck with me. Fuck with me now. Fuck with me, fuck with me now.

Speaker 1:

Ridin' from the 601 with love, thinkin' my mama and whoever up above, reppin' every day where it is. I'm from Speakin' to the 601 with love, windows down and the radio up, grateful every day for where it is I'm from. It's where I learned to fight. It's where I learned the truth. You put me through some shit. Still, I owe it all to you. I had a couple of us. Yeah, I had a few. Let's put it all behind us. Can't compare to you. Talk me about life, the struggle, the strife, how to do it wrong, turn around and make it right. You led me through the darkness. Now I'm shining bright. So turn this shit up on a Saturday night. Fuck with me now. Fuck with me now. Fuck with me. Fuck with me, fuck with me now.

Speaker 3:

Fuck with me now. Fuck with me now. Fuck with me now. Welcome back to another edition of the totally unhinged Lee Carl's solo episodes at the County Line. County Line congregation. Welcome back to your favorite place. You know the drill grab your pew of choice and prepare to have the gospel laid on you this fine day, wherever you are, wherever you may be listening, we are so happy to have you here with us at the County Line Today. I'm feeling quite frisky, and so the genesis of this friskingness can be attributed to the hard part that my wild ass hair decided to bless me with on this fine day.

Speaker 3:

It is a Saturday morning as I'm recording this, getting ready for a full slate of college football with the potential to be very, very, very entertaining. By the time you hear this, the developments of this Saturday's college football slate will have been unfolded, and we will know how everything turned out For the here and now. I'm looking forward to, obviously, dion. He's at the top of everybody's list when it comes to who they're paying attention to in college football. Can't say enough about Dion. They'll be going up against the organ ducks out in Eugene at Altson Stadium. I saw where Dion and his staff had speakers on wheels this week in Boulder, colorado, at their practices, flanking the quarterback on either side to emulate as best as possible the environment. That will definitely be raucous, to say the lease in Eugene, oregon, for Dion. They play at 230, along with Alabama, ole Miss in the 230 window, florida State and Clemson. Florida States number four in the country. Clemson, I believe, is unranked at this point, but still no small task to go into Death Valley for Florida State and try to come out of there with the wind, and if they do that I may be closer to being a full believer of what Norveils got going down there in Tallahassee. I really like what I've seen so far from Florida State.

Speaker 3:

Keon Coleman is a beast I believe they have I forget the name of the other receiver that they have. Kind of reminds me of Mike Evans, not kind of. He does. Especially he wears the long sleeve shirts, loose white shirts, like Mike Evans. I'm not sure if he still does, but I know he did when he was at A&M. Just reminds me of Mike Evans.

Speaker 3:

So also to go along with this friskiness that I got going this morning thanks to my hard part down the middle in my hair, which I gave zero effort in trying to attain today. It's just how the cookie is crumbled for me so far. I decided to put on my hippie shirt that I wore to Halloween last year because I have a very I have a shortage of clothes. Some of you may know this about me If you've listened for some time. I do not have a lot of clothes. I recycle the same shirts and pants throughout the week Many, many times and it's just. It's not from a lack of funding. I would say it's due to laziness, laziness and getting clothes just not being my priority. So all over the place for the first three minutes and 41 seconds of this podcast. But if you come here frequently, that's one of the many attributes that I'm sure you appreciate about the county line is that we do keep it very informal. In most cases I will say we got a lot of good shit coming up as far as guests go and you know we always start out a little rocky on these solo episodes but we have to tend to our housekeeping. We have to tend to our housekeeping, otherwise our house will get out of order, and if our house gets out of order we can't talk shit about other people's houses. So let's do some housekeeping here at the county line to keep everybody informed of what's going on.

Speaker 3:

Youtube YouTube channel is up and rolling. It's a work in progress, just like our lives are, but it is there and I think we have three episodes up as we stand here right now. I think we've got Topher, we've got Douglas Carswell and we have Emmy Perkins, all three of which are very entertaining. And this is my first stab at YouTube, so I've never uploaded anything to YouTube. I've had the account for about probably two years, maybe even longer than that. That's neither here nor there. I have uploaded three episodes and these are big files.

Speaker 3:

So anybody that's familiar with downloading and uploading files, particularly video files and audio files, they know that this can sometimes take a while if your internet is subpar, which mine is, unfortunately. However, I do have the fastest that AT&T offers. So I've looked into getting a better internet, upgraded internet with more strength and bandwidth and all that shit, and I've got the max package that AT&T offers. So nonetheless, the download or the upload times to YouTube are taking longer than I would like. So Tofer's episode for those of you that have listened is three hours long. That took a while to upload to YouTube and then, when it got uploaded to YouTube, I saw that only about half of the video is actually posted on the YouTube channel. So I'm not sure why that is. I have my suspicions. But before I excuse me, but before I accuse YouTube of censoring us, I'm gonna do some further digging to make sure I haven't fucked up on my end and not done something right, cause that's very possible. I would say that's more likely at this point in the game than YouTube censoring me. So there's that.

Speaker 3:

Go to YouTube, check us out. Go to Patreon. Go to Patreon. If you're not familiar with Patreon.

And now to conclude our housekeeping.

Speaker 3:

Speaker 3:

Taste it on that tropical punch in your ear, the Prime Hydration Drink. Jake, paul, I'm going to tell you what. To have no more sugar in that drink than it does. That, motherfucker, is good. I have not had a flavor of the Prime Hydration Drink that I have not thoroughly enjoyed. It wets the whistle quite nicely, particularly if you are dehydrated following a night or couple of nights of alcohol abuse. I've used alcohol. Two nights ago on accident yeah, that's what they all say. I drank nothing but straight whiskey.

Speaker 3:

I started out with three doubles on the rocks at a bar in downtown or bar slash restaurant in downtown Philadelphia that goes by the name of the Porter House. Shout out to the Porter House. Porter and Sarah and all the team do a wonderful job at the Porter House. If you're from Philadelphia, you're likely aware. If you're not, I encourage you to come to Philadelphia and when you do, first of all visit the county line. Second of all, go see the good people at the Porter House. You will not be disappointed.

Speaker 3:

So I started out with three doubles of whiskey on the rocks, woodford Reserve, two glasses of Woodford Reserve and one glass of Makers Mark Typically have bullet or Buffalo Trace, but neither of those choices were available at that time and then took a couple of shots for someone's birthday. That also happened to be whiskey, I'm not sure which flavor it was, but I've used alcohol and I felt it yesterday. I felt it when I woke up and, you know, had to do a little hydrating. So I got me a prime energy drink, I mean a prime hydration drink, along with about a half gallon of water and did what I had to do to get back in the game, you know.

Speaker 3:

And now this morning, a little over 20, well, yeah a little over 24 hours since being hung over, I'm feeling a little bit better. Feeling a little bit better. Not gonna lie to you All. Right, enough of the bullshit, so let's talk about RFK Jr and let's talk about how the Democratic Party is fucking him over like they've done to Bernie Sanders once before.

Speaker 3:

Okay, so RFK Jr, if you're not familiar, is the son of Robert F Kennedy, the nephew of John F Kennedy, and he's running for president on the Democratic ticket. So, to paint the landscape of the political field and the 2024 presidential election, that election, the general election Democrats versus Republicans theoretically will take place next November, a little over a year from now, 2024. Well, if you're somewhat familiar with politics and how election cycles work, because we have this retarded two-party system, we have a primary election in which candidates from their own respective parties compete against one another okay and they have an election or a series of election elections plural. For example, iowa and New Hampshire are typically one of the first two states, two of the first states to hold primary elections, that is, democrats versus Democrats, republicans versus Republicans and those primary elections are ultimately utilized in determining who will ultimately be the candidate who represents a particular party in the general election. So that's where we stand. We are at the beginning of the primary cycle for the 2024 presidential election.

Speaker 3:

Rfk Jr is on the campaign trail. Msnbc nor CNN will have RFK Jr on their networks. However, he is getting very, very good and widespread exposure through the underground networks of the media and the internet, if you will. He has been on Joe Rogan, he has been on Tim Dillon two famous comedians who have podcasts, and RFK has been on a multitude of other media shows and productions and podcasts. What have you? He's doing a very good job of selecting certain shows to be on to get his message out and introduce himself to people. Shit. All right, maybe I can talk now. So the Democratic Party and the words of RFK Jr are rigging the primary election against him.

Speaker 3:

Many of you listening to this may not be in tune with politics or, more specifically, the goings on of the Democratic Party. Now, a question I have been asking myself and other people recently is how will the Democrats handle the primary process? I even went so far on the most recent episode with Alan Aldridge of Porch Talk and posing this question, and many people who call themselves conservatives are not alarmed or even aware of what's going on with the Democratic Party and how they're trying to hamstring RFK Jr in his quest for the office of the president of the United States. If you are a person who considers them either out of tune with politics or only in tune with Republican politics, I encourage you to go research what's going on in the Democratic Party. So, as it stands right now, the Democrats Really the people who are controlling the government, who happen to be Democrats are persecuting Trump and trying to prevent him, through the legal system and the justice system Department of Justice they are trying to prevent him from being able to successfully run a presidential campaign and ultimately run against whoever the Democratic challenger may be. They are trying to, as they have done since 2016,. They are trying to make his life hell, which I'm sure they are succeeding, but that's one example of them trying to fend off a political opponent with questionable means. Another example is with RFK Jr. They are trying to prevent him from even having his message heard. His message is resonating and I encourage you to go listen to him and again I'm speaking to conservatives and or Republicans specifically Don't just turn your ears off when you hear Democrat or you see Democrat beside RFK Jr's name. Please go listen to him talk and at least give him 10 minutes of your time to make his case. Don't just tune him out because he says he's a Democrat and he's on the Democratic ticket. Go listen to him. Even more importantly, pay attention to how the Democratic National Committee is trying to put obstacles up in the way of RFK Jr even running and having a legitimate shot at Joe Biden. Joe Biden will never debate RFK Jr. Joe Biden will never debate anybody.

Speaker 3:

But it's alarming what these people are doing to try to fend off political opponents. As opposed to just campaigning in a traditional sense, letting the message be heard, allowing the electorate to become familiar with who the candidate is, having debates. As opposed to doing those things, the people in control of our government and Joe Biden are actively seeking to prevent people from running against him. This should be a bigger deal than it is. People should be more alarmed by what's going on with our government and how the people who are cultural Marxists are trying their damnedest to prevent other people, through legitimate means, from opposing Joe Biden and, more broadly, this ideology who finds themselves in power of the country right now. It is very scary. It is very alarming. They will. They, being the people in control are going after Trump because of January 6th and saying that Trump was trying to delegitimize a legitimate election in the election results. The ironic part is they are delegitimizing, all the while, the Democratic primary by preventing RFK Jr from being able to fairly challenge Joe Biden and allow the Democratic process to play out. They are accusing, they are doing what they have accused Trump of doing very blatantly.

Speaker 3:

He is a member of the House of Representatives from Mississippi, he is a congressman and his district is Jackson and surrounding areas, parts of the Mississippi Delta. For whatever reason, the Democrats decided to put Benny Thompson, who is an example of term limits should be in place. Benny Thompson headed the January 6th investigative committee, supposedly looking into all that went on behind the January 6th, and they had this elaborate, dramatic roll out of their findings and it was really theatrical. More than anything, my point in bringing up Benny Thompson is that he led the efforts in investigating and persecuting Trump for January 6th and doing his damnedest to paint Trump in a particular light, along with some of his other cronies in the Democratic party. Yet he probably supports how the Democratic party is treating RFK Jr currently, and that's horseshit. That's 100% horseshit. That is evidence of, yes, the deep state that I think Benny Thompson is more than likely a part of. He is an example, as a tenured congressman, of why we need term limits. Benny Thompson has not done a whole lot to write home about for his district. I mean, go to his district, go to the city of Jackson and look for yourself. Yet he's been in there for my entire lifetime 30 years, that's a long ass time. It's hypocritical, it's a double standard what the Democrats are doing, and I think more people should be alarmed at the treatment of RFK Jr.

Speaker 3:

I would vote for RFK Jr. I think if we had Trump versus RFK Jr, then you could really have substantive debate. The mud slinging, of course, would continue as far as Trump goes. Trump's not going to shut the fuck up. He's just not. That's just not in his DNA. That's not how he operates.

Speaker 3:

Rfk Jr I believe if he could make it to the general election could make it very, very interesting. I think he's a legitimate candidate, whereas Joe Biden is obviously not. Joe Biden hadn't been a viable candidate since before 2020. The debate he had with Trump, or the couple of debates what a hire me there were that was the tail end of any semblance of competency for Joe Biden. Biden is a puppet. Our country knows it, the people of America know it. He is indicative of the corruption and backsliding that our country has been suffocated by for years.

Speaker 3:

Like I said, regardless of party affiliation and who you align with politically, I encourage you, as an American, to pay attention to what's going on with RFK Jr. First and foremost, I encourage you to go listen to him, read up on him, do your own research, because the legacy media outlets, or better known as the propaganda arm of the Democratic Party, cnn and MSNBC, are not giving him any airtime because they suck Biden's dick and they do everything that could benefit President Joe Biden and the Marxist ideology in which Biden is the figurehead for. Go research RFK Jr. He's a much more competent way more competent way, I mean everything. He is a better candidate for president than Joe Biden times a million. The fact that he's not getting a legitimate shot and serious consideration by the powers that be in the Democratic Party and Biden is is emblematic of a huge issue with our country.

Speaker 3:

Thank you, I would be happy if we had. I would. I would have if we had Trump come out of the Republican party, which I think he should, because we need somebody with some nuts. We need an alpha, which I think RFK junior and Trump are. We need a dog in that bitch, we need a leader. If we could get a matchup of those two, I hope we'll have been restored to a certain extent in regards to the election process and the democratic process actually playing out as it should in America, because if RFK junior doesn't get or even he should get the nomination, but if he doesn't even get a legitimate shot, something is obviously out of whack, which it obviously is in our country.

Speaker 3:

It's apparent, but we have to. We have to recognize that. We have to be alarmed, we have to pay more attention to what the hell's going on. Have to. So the government shutdown, hold, hold situation is going on.

Speaker 3:

So if you're not familiar with what's going on in politics right now, the the house of representatives is responsible for coming up with a bill to fund the government by September 30th Today, september 23rd, so they have a week. The issue, the crux of the issue and why they can't get a bill passed to fund the government, comes from a small number of Republicans voting with Democrats against the house Republicans to not fund the government based on what's in the bill. So these Democrats are saying support your fellow Republicans so we can move the process along and get it to a vote. So the Democrats are painting this narrative as if it's a Republican civil war, which, to a certain extent, I guess you could argue that it is, but these five or six Republican Congress members are not electing to vote for this bill that would fund the government due to things that they shouldn't they believe should not be in the bill, such as support for Ukraine, continued support for Ukraine. My question is why is it only five people who are raising this issue? Why aren't more Congress members advocating for the elimination of continued funding for Ukraine? Like, fuck Ukraine, fuck them. We got shit that needs to be done here Again.

Speaker 3:

All that's going on with Hunter Biden and Joe Biden and their connections with Ukraine, and yet we continue to send them billions of billions of dollars to continue a war that they can't win, while we have people here in Philadelphia, mississippi, who are eating out of trash cans for real. Now, it's not a lot of people here, thankfully, but in some of your larger cities it is an epidemic. There are parts of this country, the Mississippi Delta, for example, the black belt in Alabama, jackson, mississippi, who have not, who could have, you know, $20 million, much less, 20 million would be great. I cannot wrap my head around sending money to Ukraine to fight a proxy war with Russia, to prop up the military industrial complex and the defense lobbyists in Washington. Why do we allow this to happen? Because we, the people, allow it to happen, because we continue electing people who allow it to happen.

Speaker 3:

Why aren't our Mississippi congressmen voting against this bill? Now, full disclosure. My dumb ass has not gone through and read this bill. I've only read articles that have tried to outline where the riff in the Republican Party is and why. Marjorie Taylor Green I love that woman. I think she stands for what she believes in. She's not going to let them push her around. She said, fuck it, I'm not voting for it. Matt Gates from Florida he said fuck it, I'm not voting for it, and I'm with them. I'm with them. I don't see why there aren't more people saying, hey, look, we're not going to vote for this. If you're going to continue to send money taxpayer money, american taxpayer money to Ukraine, like, if you're going to continue to spend that kind of money, spend it on us. So the spending issue is where a lot of Republicans, a lot of Republicans want to see reduced spending across all 12 appropriation bills and I mean I agree, I don't think we can continue to spend money.

Speaker 3:

I'm mostly fiscally conservative and socially liberal in a traditional sense. Like I would vote for RFK Jr If that gives you any idea, if you go listen to him, if you get, if that gives you any idea of the quote unquote liberal ideology that I hold. I have I hold a lot of conservative ideology, a conservative tenants, and a lot of Democratic tenants within my personal political ideology. But I would consider, I would seriously consider Trump or RFK Jr Because I think they are the two most viable leaders of the pool of candidates that are out there. I don't care what party they're associated with. I try to separate that part and like I like Trump when he said the other day somebody you know they were just railing home the point that you're conservative, conservative, conservative. But he's like, yeah, I mean I'm a Republican and I have a lot of conservative beliefs but at the same time I have a lot of common sense. Like there are a lot of things that are just common sense and people won't entertain those ideas if they, even though they are common sense, those common sense ideas may be associated with being a Republican or Democrat.

Speaker 3:

And here's the thing, as far as voting to not fund a bill and ultimately shut the government down. For us to change, for our country to improve, we are going to have to go through some tough shit, and obviously, if the federal government's not funded, then there will be a lot of services that are provided by the federal government that won't operate, and so those voids will have to be filled. But like the federal government sucks anyway at everything they do, the only thing that the thing that the federal government as a body does best and better than any other entity is spend fucking money. Spending money. They're so good at spending money. They are not efficient, they are not competent. If you ever been to the IRS building and Hattiesburg or Jackson, or if you're in another state wherever, go go there and see up close and personal how dysfunctional the fucking government is.

Speaker 3:

Our public schools another prime example I saw where the vet Ramos, when he said it I saw him say this first and then Trump said it too said that he's going to dismantle. Both said that they're going to dismantle the Department of Education and send all education back to the States. That's music to my ears. Music to my ears that makes all the sense in the world, because educational environments cannot be one size fits all. Those models cannot be one size fits all because the dynamics are so different depending upon which region of the country you're in. The children in Mississippi need a different, they're going to need a slightly different education than the children in Eugene, oregon, or Syracuse, new York Children. Spanish is going to be. Spanish is important across the country now, but it's going to be more pertinent in relative to one's education in Texas, near the border, where, for obvious reasons than in Murfreesboro, tennessee, for example.

Speaker 3:

But we're gonna have, I mean, more politicians need to take these hard stances and, like the media paints these, these figures Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene it's like these crazy conspiracy theorists, people that are unhinged and they represent people in the KKK that are in their district and vote for them and put them in the office. But that's not the reality of the situation. These people are just conservative. Marjorie Taylor Greene's not a fucking racist, but that's the answer for everything on the lift. They have to associate an identity with everything and they have to vouch. They have to separate and delineate people based on identity and it divides more than it unites, because we're focused on the differences of one another as opposed to where the more prominent qualities that we have that that unite us Like.

Speaker 3:

I don't believe the America that I have in my mind. America sending money to Ukraine is not emblematic of the America I have in my mind. The America I have in my mind is like Deion Sanders you are good, you will rise to the top. If you are good, if there is a market for your talents, for your services, for your product, you will succeed in America Period. But our leaders peddling their influence for dollars to foreign nations is not America In my mind. I know that's the reality of the situation and it's unfortunate, but that's not what our country should be known for. The ideas and the values of what this country stands for should not be associated with such behavior. And the fact that our people are not more alarmed. First of all, the fact that our people are not more aware is disturbing, and the ones that are aware that they're not more alarmed is also concerning.

Speaker 3:

So let's move on to Mail Tucker. If you're not familiar with who Mail Tucker is, mail Tucker is a recently fired college football coach who held a record contract at Michigan State University and he had like a hundred million dollar ten-year contract or some shit and has recently come under fire for having for exhibiting sexual misconduct behavior and has been was first suspended without pay, now has been fired with calls Excuse me, the hydration drain got me burping. So Mail Tucker, I think, was given this contract like two or three years ago after a successful season after Mark D'Antonio concluded his illustrious Michigan State University Spartan football coaching career, and so Mail Tucker has been accused of masturbating on the phone with a woman. This is not just any woman, this woman her name escapes me but she is a rape survivor and now basically advocates for the awareness and help for rape surviving victims, and she had a deal with Michigan State in some capacity to provide services for them, whether it be speaking engagements, what have you. And apparently Mail had struck up a relationship with this lady and they talked frequently. According to him, she has accused Mail Tucker of making unwanted sexual comments and masturbating on the phone with her, absent of her consent. However, mail made a good point she never hung up the phone, and I'm laying this out because I believe that there are many cases in our society in which men are accused of sexual assault or sexual harassment, because that's the one of the most embarrassing and capable of blacklisting you.

Speaker 3:

Actions Like very. If you're called sexually harassing, legitimately sexually harassing someone or sexually assaulting someone, you should be punished with the full force of the law Period. However, these allegations and these accusations can be used, and are used with nefarious intent, because they're so difficult to for people to give men the benefit of the doubt when these allegations and these accusations surface. Another example of this is Russell Brand. Four women have come out and accused him of sexually assaulting and or sexually harassing them. Now, if you're not familiar with who Russell Brand is, you've been under a rock, but he is a media personality who has been in. He's had an acting career. He's from Britain originally and has become wildly successful and popular doing his own media thing political opinions, pop, cultural opinions. He has his own show. You can find it on YouTube and all these other places. He has been deemed as a, as an extremist, as a conservative person, and he has come out and denied these allegations. Surprise, surprise. Now I don't know if male Tucker or Russell Brand are guilty or not.

Speaker 3:

My point in bringing these cases up is that these allegations, these types of allegations and accusations have become trendy when trying to smear someone. It's happened with most male conservative political figures. The left has even brought about such allegations and accusations against their own when they try to rid themselves of association with a particular person Most of the time obviously most of the time these figures are males it has become one of the more popular tactics to again smear, ridicule and embarrass a person. Now Mel Tucker, probably with all the facts being out right now. This is my interpretation of what went down with Mel Tucker. It sounds like he and Homegirl have been communicating with one another and probably had a consensual sexual relationship. Because she didn't want her name to be public. She didn't want her name to be out in the public. Associated with these allegations, somebody leaked her name and she since has come out and said I didn't want this to become public, I don't want people to know that I was the accuser. Well, that's fishy right there, because she is a rape survivor and a rape surviving advocate. It seems to me like she would want to publicize because it doesn't sound like she was physically assaulted. It sounds like they were having phone sex and state has recognized that they don't want Mel Tucker as their football coach because they don't think he's sending that program in the right direction. So they're going to use this as an opportunity, in tandem with this lady, to fire him for calls which would then allow them to forego paying him $80 million. So they got 80 million 80 million reasons to smear Mel Tucker. Not to mention they have a long history of allowing sexual abuse, real sexual abuse, to occur within their institution. And if you're not familiar with that, I encourage you to go look up Larry Nassar and the situation surrounding that.

Speaker 3:

At Michigan State, social brand, I think, is under attack by the legacy media, who views him to be competition, serious competition, and a threat to the narrative that they are trying to push. They tried to do the same thing with Joe Rogan, with COVID and a multitude of other media personalities, and these people aren't always conservative or extremist, as the left would have you think in their articles Like look, I'm not brainwashed and I'm not a conspiracy theorist. I have read their articles about these different topics and I read these buzzwords and these narratives that they come up with and it's never ending and it's just perpetual. And so what I'm saying, these things. If one of these people were to listen to this podcast episode, they would deem me as a dangerous conservative extremist who's a white supremacist and probably is in the KKK. But that's not who I am. And if you listen to me and you know who I am, you probably, whether you like me or not, would deem me to be fair, if nothing else. Now, am I very opinionated? Yes, absolutely. But I'm not a dangerous conservative extremist and nor do I think is Russell Brand or Tim Dillon or Tucker Carlson. I don't think they're dangerous, I don't think they're extremist. I think they're giving us their worldview and it just does not align with the narrative that the left and the Marxists are pushing. They are trying to control the narrative in this day and age of rapidly evolving technology and the goalposts are always moving.

Speaker 3:

But these sexual abuse allegations, like? I don't want to dismiss them, nor am I dismissing them. As I've said, if somebody is guilty of that, they should be punished, and they should be punished and have consequences, whether it be in the workplace or what have you. But they don't even know if this shit's true about Russell Brand and YouTube has demonetized his account. What happened to innocent until proven guilty and I'll leave it there, okay.

Speaker 3:
