We have a jam-packed episode today. That's the worst thing you've ever said. Well, this is breaking news to me. I haven't I haven't heard anything about this. Quick story, quick story time. I had that freaking near fatal collapse. We didn't. Welcome to Zeducation University, the world's first tuition-free education program in podcast form. In today's episode, we'll be discussing Soldiers Insider Trading, the latest Trump assassination attempt, and much, much more. But first, we gotta start with our morning announcements. And today's a little different, folks. Today is an early out day. If you guys remember back in the day in your schools, we had you had testing, remember those days? Or it was like a spring break, whatever. We're doing a half day of school, so we don't have a couple classes, but we're still gonna learn a lot today. So get your notepads, get your pencils, start taking notes. It's a very, very important episode today. It's been what, two weeks?
SPEAKER_02It's been two weeks, yeah.
SPEAKER_06So I'll yeah, you were gone last week, and I'll let you explain what you were doing if you want to. Because there's a lot of cool stuff there. You can share whatever you want. Um, but first, before we do that, we have the podcasts available on all podcasting apps. So if you are watching on YouTube, head over there. If you're also watching on YouTube, head over to Zeducation University Clips, where we will upload clips of the show, and vice versa. If you're listening on your podcasting app, head over YouTube, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, all that stuff. Uh, leave a review too on the podcasting app. If you want to support us, probably one of the best ways to support is leaving a review and obviously subscribing to the channels. But, like I said, before we get into today's show, our announcements. Um, first off, I'm I have to wear the wild hat. You were asking. It's game six tonight, man. Game six, first time getting past the first round in 11 years, okay? Nice. This is my Breden Circus. If we win tonight, we're at home tonight. So we have if we lose tonight, it's probably over. But that's why and then the Timberwolves. Timberwolves are also in game six.
SPEAKER_04But Ant's injured, I believe.
SPEAKER_06Ant is injured, Devin Chenjo, De Vincenzo is injured, I think uh Nazarita's injured. The chances are very low that they win.
SPEAKER_03So that's what is there is there something I've I just saw something about, and I don't even know if I can say this because I'm a little confused what it is, but that uh you know that uh the PGA has that hat that says uh the slop. What is that? The goy slop? Have you seen that?
SPEAKER_06Uh well I know what you're talking about. I know that I didn't see that phrase, but I don't know. The PGA is wearing that? What are you talking about?
SPEAKER_03Well, they had that like the hat, the at the Masters. They had a they had a hat.
SPEAKER_06Oh no, I know you're talking that wasn't PGA sponsored.
SPEAKER_03Oh, I thought it was the Masters. I thought it was like Augusta or something was wearing like someone.
SPEAKER_06No, no, no, no. Someone I know exactly what you're talking about. It was a fan in the crowd. It had the master's font.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, no, no, no. That was that was just him personally wearing that hat.
SPEAKER_03But what does that exactly mean? Is that like where you're like in love? Because I I've been seeing people who are like, you know, I'm sick of guys loving other guys and wearing their t-shirts and you know, oh yeah, yeah, one man's wearing another man's name on the back, and then how dare he let his wife like wear, you know, some other man's before we say that, before I get into explaining what that means, yeah, I agree in that like dude, if you're a grown man, you probably shouldn't wear another man's name on your back.
SPEAKER_06It is a whole lot of it. It just it's kind of weird. And I feel like as we get older, it's like, eh, sports really don't matter. You know, it's like it's fun, it's a good hobby. I I love watching hockey still, but it really doesn't matter that much. Now, as far as that, I think they're making fun of the people that are really into it. The Bretton Circus, right? And the goy thing is like the in the Jewish world, it is a term for non-believer, but it also is like a slur. I think we've talked about that. Where like uh in the Epstein emails, for example, really, they talk about uh they use the word goy quite a bit for non-Jews, non-believers, and it's like a um like a slur almost. It can be used as a slur, but it's also, I believe it's an actual term too for just non non-Jewish, non-believer.
SPEAKER_03Okay, I've never even heard of it until just recently.
SPEAKER_06I've been seeing that half showing up and that's that's where it's like I you can't even log on to Twitter anymore without seeing that kind of stuff. So but that's what it is. Uh Dave, anything to elaborate on that in our morning announcements? No, we'll leave it there. All right. Um, but yes, no, I I do agree. There's that who is the comedian? Oh, it's uh Doug Stanhope has that joke. He's like, if you wear another man's name on your back, he has the right to you. Yeah, he has the right to you, yeah. Yeah, basically you're his, you know, a lot more vulgar, but yeah. Um, anyways, anyways. It's been two weeks. So where do you want to explain where you were this past week?
SPEAKER_03Yeah, I was shooting. Um I was shooting at a uh facility out in out in Idaho that is uh oh man, I don't even know how much I want to say about it, to be honest. So I do I do l uh extreme long range shooting uh and I train with uh some interesting characters. Uh we do uh I mean it's it's everybody from uh mostly it's it's mostly special force type of uh units, you know. Active duty active duty, yeah, yeah. All active duty, yep. Um, and then um uh the person that has a facility I'm I'm friends with, so I have a little bit of uh insight of getting there and uh and shooting. They have they have uh every once in a while you can get a chance to get in there for a civilian course because one of the units may have you know have to do unit stuff, you know, they have to do meal stuff where they actually get called out for whatever reason and they cancel last second and then a slot will open up where you can jump in there, jump into a class. So we go out there and we shoot uh we shoot precision uh at in uh Hells Canyon, which is crazy angles. Uh yeah, it looked pretty tips.
SPEAKER_05I saw your I saw the pictures you uploaded. It's like it looked pretty cool.
SPEAKER_03And with one of the best shooters in the world, Brian Morgan, uh he's uh one of the best trainers shooters in the world, and he's surrounded with uh amazing uh shooters also that work in the facility, uh uh current operators. Um, and that's where I'll leave it at. I mean, like I but like the the guys that change the history of the earth, yeah, yeah, you know, type of uh operators.
SPEAKER_06No, it sounds super badass. Uh and this is the second time you've been there? Second or third?
SPEAKER_03No, third. Third time. This is my third time that I've I've gone through the training.
SPEAKER_06Uh, do you have plans to go back out there?
SPEAKER_03Um uh at this point.
SPEAKER_06I want to go out there too, but yeah, of course.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, I would love for you to go out there. I I mean like there's a lot of great people out there. I mean, like, really, really, I mean, you because you're stuck out there and you bunk up, it's very military-like, you know, so you guys are everyone's bunking up. Uh, it's four to a room, but we're all basically in like a barnuminium, you know, so there's only four rooms. So there's only 16 people that are are running through it. But uh, yeah, I mean, like from guys that uh I I when I was just was out there, uh uh Delta Force uh group came through and I was still there and I was shacked up with those guys, you know, afterwards, and we were sitting there freaking listening to the stories and blah blah blah. Which yeah, but that was pretty freaking yeah, it was pretty gnarly, like some of the stuff that they do.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, we well, all those guys have insane amount of stories.
SPEAKER_03Oh, and then the history that we hear on the news compared to what they're telling us actually happened. They were first, they're like there, actually there. I can tell you, like, I I've met you know guys that have been to many that would that were at historical events. I I mean from from the uh some have been later to yeah, like I said, I don't want to go down too far down it, but and and they give their rendition of what the story was compared to the people that are out there yelling at the top of their lungs that are like yeah, the Elizabeth Warrens of the world. Yeah, and you know what? I see it's like I'm not gonna even say anything, but that's not how it went down.
SPEAKER_06Right. Well, and that's where uh because yeah, I told you I go down the rabbit hole all the time of all these former special ops guys on podcasts and stuff. I just I love that content, especially the guys on like the Sean Ryan show and whatever. Um, but they they say stuff like that quite often, right? And it's honestly it's unfortunate to have the the Congress that we do. Did you guys watch the the Ben Sass? He's a former senator, he's got cancer. Uh he was on 60 Minutes. No. So Ben Sass is a Republican senator from Nebraska. He was just diagnosed with a terminal um pancreatic cancer like last year. They gave him like six months to live, and now he's it's been past six months. But he did an interview and it was phenomenal. It was awesome to hear him talk. And but he was he was saying like Congress is it's become self-serving. It's become, you know, who is the loudest. It's not what they're not even talking about things that are important to Americans, like, hey, what are we gonna do about job loss to AI? I mean, that's a real thing. What are we gonna do about this alleged future that we're gonna live in with this mass abundance and you know, like that's gonna change life as we know it forever. And they're not talking about stuff like that. They're talking about nonsense. I mean, then like I always go back to Elizabeth Warren and um, you know, AOC. I mean, you got the the people on the right too, but it's it's unfortunate that they represent and speak for badasses that are out there doing their dirty work, you know.
SPEAKER_03What's crazy to me is that they have the ability to change again, they too have the ability and they do change the history of the earth, and they have the ability to change how we live, our quality of life, things that I mean, they could do a better job at everything from our food to the wars that we get into to every, you know, and everybody on this earth, but yet they self-serve. I mean, that's what it is. It's super weird. I mean, could you imagine Jesus coming down and being like, you know, Jesus is a great guy, Jesus is the best, you know, and just talking. He he served, he served, and that's how he became a great guy, right? Like, I mean, his through his service, he became and a sacrifice. Yeah, um, it wasn't through promotion, self-promotion.
SPEAKER_06It was yeah, making money on insider trades, right? Starting the latest war, and then spinning it to fit your narrative, right? And that's what we're talking about is is what's the real story. It's never what these snake politicians say, ever. Oh no. Um, no, yeah.
SPEAKER_03Speaking of, you see how the guy, uh, do you see what's his name? Um, got uh arrested for Benghazi. I can't think of his name right now. Um, but I see everybody's calling out now Hillary Clinton. No, no, no, no.
SPEAKER_06Oh, he got arrested for something. I don't even know if he got arrested for the state.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, there probably nothing will happen with that, I don't think. No, because he's kind of got it.
SPEAKER_06Should he's clearly inciting something.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, well, he's I mean on purpose. Absolutely, even if it's getting in people's heads, right? Right. Well, that's what it is.
SPEAKER_06You're planting a seed, and we'll get we're gonna get to that because I want to talk about the the Trump assassination attempt here. But um what else we got? Um you want to talk about the well, this weekend's a big deal. We don't have to talk about that, but um Yeah, we can talk about it.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, it's my dad's second funeral. Um Yeah, so my dad's had my dad uh passed away back in uh December, and we got another funeral, which which is a little bit to be completely honest with and everybody out there, like it's a little weird for me because we had a service already for him. It wasn't a it kind of was public, but it it wasn't like uh an official funeral. The weird thing is that I'm having a hard time with it, is that uh, you know, I already closed the book back in December on this. That's what I was gonna ask. It's like I gotta tear that band-aid back off kind of thing, and uh, you know, we're gonna have like a full fledged funeral, except we're not actually burying him. He'll stay with my mom until she passes and she wants him in the coffin. She doesn't want to get cremated. Okay. So she wants to put him together.
SPEAKER_06Well, that's that was my main question for you. It's like, what is what is that like as far as literally this is the second funeral?
SPEAKER_03There's gonna be like uh, you know, it's like a uh um uh a a series of three, you know, of movies, you know. So there'll be a third funeral basically for my dad when my mom passes, which I'm just like, what the heck is going on? Yeah, you know, it just I don't know, it's weird. It's weird, man. It's a weird deal. It's I don't know. I'm I've been a little crabby about it and you know, irritable. But um, you know, my dad was a great guy. I don't have really, I don't want to say I have a problem with having the funeral for the second time. It's just yeah, it's my selfishness, I guess.
SPEAKER_06No, the stories you've told about him are awesome.
SPEAKER_03Um yeah, he he was a great guy.
SPEAKER_06The uh well, there's probably one story that I'm thinking of that the guy that punched the lady on the bike. Get him!
SPEAKER_05Yeah, you don't have to tell the story about it. Have you ever heard that story, Dave? Yeah, I have. That's pretty good. Yeah.
SPEAKER_06Get him.
SPEAKER_03He did he did shoot a lady in the butt with a BB gun. That's probably like his like his like she was yelling at him, and he just was like he had it in his truck, and it's just like you know, she's like, I'll make shot! He just drove away. No one ever got in trouble for that. Oh, that's hilarious. Yeah, yeah, well, that was years ago.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, no, that's uh he's gone now, so there what was I gonna say to the uh um the other story? Oh, the other one that I love about that him is uh you're your own man.
SPEAKER_03Oh, yeah, that's absolutely how you joined the army. Yeah, that's exactly why I joined the army. Yeah, he said so. Um my sisters, my parents paid for their college, all my sisters. And you have three sisters, right? I have three sisters, yep. And when I turned 17 on my 17th birthday, like that night, it was like after the cake was cut and the presents, you know, were like done, blah, blah, blah, kind of thing. Uh, he sat me down and he's like, he's like, I just want you to know you're your own man. I was like, what do you mean? He's like, You got one year to get out of this house. You got one year before you gotta be out of the house. And I was like, What does that even mean? Like, I don't even get like, what are you telling me? He was like, on when you turn 18, you have to be out of this house. And I wasn't a bad kid at all. I was a good kid, kind of. But uh, but um, yeah, he said, I was like, Dad, but don't you aren't you gonna pay for like my college and that? Like, you paid for theirs. And he's like, Nope, you're your old man. He's like, I had to figure it out on my own. You need to figure it out on your own. So I went to I remember I went to Brown University. Uh, it's a like a like a little technical college in Minneapolis, it's not like the big Brown.
SPEAKER_05Yep.
SPEAKER_03And uh I was gonna be a uh graphics designer back then. This is like kind of before computers. No, it was. I mean, it was you didn't use computers for that. You had to like draw shit with your hand. And yeah, yeah, you know, like at the grocery store you'd paint like the the letters on when there's a discount, and you know, everything was on paper. But uh yeah, it was like I can remember it was like two or three thousand dollars for the year, and I was like, where the hell am I gonna get three thousand dollars at? I work at Target at that time, you know. I there's no way that was gonna happen. So I had no idea. And and of course, you know, my my my uh counselors, they would they were trash. I was an inner city Minneapolis kid. They were trash, they didn't tell me about student loans. I didn't even know that was a thing, right? And I was like, Well, I guess I'm joining the army. That was like the only thing every all my buddies were joining the army, you know, and then I there was like I I I did my score, and it was like I get an extra fifty thousand dollars, you know, beyond the the sixteen thousand dollars of the GI Bill. Yep, because I scored high enough. So I was like, Yep, see ya.
SPEAKER_06Nice.
SPEAKER_03So I did.
SPEAKER_06Honestly, I feel like that's a good uh a good thing to have for a son, a good mentality to to push on him. I I think like you gotta look this is you gotta make your own way, man.
SPEAKER_03You do. I will not pay for my kids' college, either of them. I mean, I'm I'm I'm riding against the grain, especially like you know, when we get to like like our like our demographic, anyways, as far as like people are like, You why would you not pay for your kids? I don't want to see what I remember in college, because I did go to college on the military money, which I earned. I remember kids that were in college buying stupid shit, going on trips. I mean, like one kid had like a brand new Silverado, like he was using his dad's money. He was going on trips to Mexico, he was doing all this stuff, so he was using his dad's money and taking out student loans. Double dipping and double dipping. Yep, he was double dipping it, and then he came out in debt already, you know, living this crazy lifestyle that off of his parents' hardships.
SPEAKER_04So when you go and work, you're making 25 max an hour, can't afford that lifestyle anymore.
SPEAKER_06No, I so I had a friend, uh he kind of similar, but he was going to school for medicine or something, and um he uh he went out for like lobster dinner or something. Like, dude, what the hell are you doing? Lobster dinner, like you're in college. This is debt, man. What's what what's another you know, hundred bucks in debt? Just throw it on the mountain of debt. I'm not getting out of it anyways. Oh my gosh. It's like, dude. No, I would agree with you in that. Like, why would you and I say this all the time, and people get really upset because I think that we're in this divide now where a lot of younger people are seeing that college is essentially worthless, depending on what you get, and everyone freaks out. We've had this conversation many times. But um it is worthless, and it's it's an indoctrination at the most basic level, really, is all it is.
SPEAKER_03I would say at least 50% is worthless. Yeah, no, for sure, for sure. So why waste your kids' time?
SPEAKER_06Why institutionalize them in this college and give them this false perception of the world? Give them bad ideas that are going to shape their ideology going forward, likely hurt their mental health. And you know, I look at a lot of young women that like put careers first, and then they this is like a super viral thing online now. It's like they're in their mid to late 30s, don't have a relationship, don't have children, and now they're like, oh my gosh, what did I do? Now I'm almost past my window, like ah, they I was lied to. You know, I've seen video after video after video of that. Um and yeah, it's like it's they learn that in college. They did what they're supposed to do, right? They went to college, they they that's what everyone told them to do. They got a career, you know, make some money first. What? No, dude.
SPEAKER_04Uh what do you what are you laughing at over there, boy? I laugh because you're gonna love this because it's an office reference. Jan was in the same situation, so she went to a fertile clinic. Oh, yeah, I love that scene. And uh Kevin's like, is that the one over behind the story? Well, I might be the father.
SPEAKER_06And if you know the office, Kevin is just like uh because he donated to the brand, he donated I've seen that card so many times. That's a great clip, yeah. But, anyways, paying for your kids in college, I yeah, I don't think it's a uh a smart thing at all.
SPEAKER_03If they want to go and sure, so I mean for yourself. My kids don't watch this, but what my my plan is I mean, I just want to make sure that I'm prepared for their wedding, that I can be there to help pay for that, which I don't really want to, but because I that's another scam. And uh that one day, the one day that's you know, I mean, people you hear people paying like $50,000 to $80,000 for one day. You're like, what is going on? Like, what fantasy land are you living in? Right? I mean, imagine in 10 years from now, that number doubles, and then another 10 years, that number doubles. Yeah, right. Seven even it's like seven years, I think. The if you invest it, but um but I want to uh be able to I want to make sure that I'm there for that and also for a down payment on the house. That is a good idea.
SPEAKER_06That makes way more sense than paying for a kid's college, I think.
SPEAKER_03Right.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, if you can give your kid uh enough for that that 20% down to not do the PMI. Right, you know, I mean, because that cuts out two, three hundred bucks a month. A lot.
SPEAKER_03Right, right. Yeah, so that's that's where I'm at with that. I'm just I am saving for them, but I'm not telling them that. I don't want them to know that. Right, yeah, right. I don't want them to know that at all.
SPEAKER_06Um, I don't even know where there's our morning announcements. We're gonna Bam. Bam, yeah, there we go. We're already tangent and hard, but whatever. Uh let's get into our first period. We're only gonna have uh four four periods today. Let's see, actually three more. Three more periods today, folks. We'll go about an hour, hour and a half. Had to drop in and say hey this week. And um, yeah, we won't have our our our documentary review, but we will get to that next week, hopefully. If you guys are around. I don't know. We don't say anything about that yet. Oh boy. Okay.
SPEAKER_02Okay.
SPEAKER_06Do we want to go down that rabbit hole? Yeah, why not?
SPEAKER_03I mean, whatever.
SPEAKER_06Okay, so what are you guys possibly doing next week?
SPEAKER_03So we are possibly going down to a couple places, down to Florida and down to uh Tennessee to uh my wife's uh job, she's doing some interviews, in-person interviews. She's already done phone interviews, but we're looking to get the hell out of Minnesota. We're trying to get out of the state. We are trying our hardest to get out of the state. And I'll be honest with you, you know, Tyler got me uh on the on the ramp to move out of here, and I'm gonna be the first person, like out of here.
SPEAKER_06When did I do that?
SPEAKER_03You're like, you're like, I'm out of here, dude. That's it. Well, I've been here.
SPEAKER_06I've been I've been on that that for like about a year now. Uh that's it. Just with with everything happening in the state politically, and it's like it's gone. It's the the culture is gone, the the politics are gone. I wish we could save it, but it's it and then I've had this conversation about 10 different times now. Where do you want to raise your kids? Is this the culture? The stuff in the the public school curriculum is insane. Crazy. You know, like so. Is this where we want to raise them? Do we want to raise them around crazy people and make them be crazy people in the future?
SPEAKER_03Like, well, it's not just that. It's and then it's your kids' kids, it's your grandchildren, they're your great grandchildren. Like, that's gonna change everything. You're gonna deflect everything that happens for your the generations that come after you, right? You are literally deflecting everything from being up in here in this in this culture. And I don't want to say this culture is horrible because it's not. Northern Minnesota is not a bad place, right? Like this is a pretty good place, but the problem is is that that center island, uh the center of evil in Minneapolis, it leaks up in here, and it's leaking up here very quickly. Big time, very quickly, and it's it's happening so fast that it's making me nervous. I don't know how to combat that. Like some people are like, well, run for office, run, do this and that. It's beyond that it's beyond that. It's to that's to the right at this point right now, that's too difficult. The the right thing to do, and I don't want to say that I'm running, but I'm positioning myself in a in a more fortified position at this point right now, which I think is people that think like I do. Yes, right.
SPEAKER_04And that's well, you gotta be able to uh there's a time and a place like. Like you're, I wouldn't even say running because as a business, if your business is failing, you got to be able to have the understanding that this is failing and you got to be able to pull the plug before it affects, like you said, your family. All of a sudden, now your business is completely in the red. You haven't been in the black in a while. Well, how long are you gonna go before it completely dismantles you and you're you're left with nothing?
SPEAKER_03It's crazy the amount of money too that we were talking about that like off uh camera. Uh, the amount of money that we save. My wife does the anesthesia, or she's anesthetist, and she does uh anesthesia, and it's it it it the amount of money that just hurt because she's W2, so she doesn't have write-offs like a typical business would or somebody that's you know uh so it it's the amount of money just from getting rid of a that state income tax, b property tax now in Florida, right? Um, then there's other incentives too.
SPEAKER_06I don't want to go down that whole list, but and the other part too, the like for example, this is a let's just a tiny example as far as the money thing goes. There's that um Minnesota paid leave thing, right? The amount of people signing up for that and getting benefits far exceeded, far exceeded what they they projected. So they're going to have to raise taxes again. And and it's going to get worse. More businesses are going to leave because of that. They're already leaving. And so then they're gonna have to tax a bigger group of people for that. It's just gonna, it's a a snowball that is unstoppable at this point.
SPEAKER_04Did you see the numbers when uh the ice protests, the amount of people that signed up for that 12-week leave as soon as the ice protest started? It was crazy. It was a lot crazy.
SPEAKER_03It was like it wasn't like I thought of and I'm complete this just take it for what it's worth, but I feel like I heard someone say it was like 12% of the workforce or something crazy like that.
SPEAKER_06I don't think it's that high.
SPEAKER_03I don't know if it was that high. It was really high. It was really high.
SPEAKER_06Like overnight. It's in the tens of thousands of people. I know that. Yeah, I think it's not, I don't think it's not like because there's five million people.
SPEAKER_03But how many people work in Minnesota?
SPEAKER_06Well, that's that's the next question.
SPEAKER_01That's the next question.
SPEAKER_06I'm gonna say between 1.5 and 2 million.
SPEAKER_03You know, I wonder if it wasn't 12,000 people that signed up for it. Maybe that's what it was. That sounds more accurate. I'm not throwing accurate information out right now. But it's that sounds accurate.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, it um, but yeah, no, it's just stuff like that, that just adding up and add another one. Uh new car tabs, getting car tabs. Like, people are paying, I I've seen people talk about my my registration was a thousand dollars this year, and it used to be like 300 bucks. I mean, it's it's insane. The number of things that are completely off the rails in this state.
SPEAKER_03Did you see that? Like, did you see that uh that piece where they were arguing and the the guy the the one Democrat said, yeah, in Minnesota, we're just about the same price as our neighbors over you know around us. And then the guy comes up and he's like, Well, for a 20 for a 2019 suburban in North Dakota, it's like $35. And over here, it's like this. In Minnesota, it's like $800 and some dollars. It's like that's not the same thing.
SPEAKER_06There's another thing that uh, and we'll get in today's show here soon, folks. Um the other thing about that is that's what happens in the media in Minnesota. The Minnesota media is and it's seeping into the sports media in Minnesota to the level of delusion and and corruption in our own local media, is they'll say everything's perfect, Minnesota's the greatest place in the world to live. And they literally regurgitate what Tim Wall says. It's like, what are you guys talking about? Like, I'm looking at the registration bill right here, it says $1,000. You're you are literally lying bold-facedly, and you're just going with it. Either you're stupid or you are insanely evil. And I think I think it's mostly evil people that are just they're trying to use Minnesota as this uh this hub, this example for the rest of the left wing in the country. Like, hey, we can uh we can force this down people's throats if we just are ruthless enough. And that's that's what they're doing here in Minnesota. It's and that's why I feel like it's gone. It's it's it's not saveable at this point.
SPEAKER_04Uh so the GM, we got a new GM at uh the Costco in Brainerd. And the first thing he said when he came in after he reviewed the employees, looked around the store, is the very first thing he said was, it's too white. Ah You're kidding me. Nope.
SPEAKER_06In a in a in a in a county, in a county that is literally what, 95% white?
SPEAKER_04I know it's like, dude, you're demographic, man.
SPEAKER_06Like, what are you gonna bust people up here? I had a friend that worked for Target down in uh so this was like the George Floyd days. They so I think Minnesota's demographic is like 91% white. You get in the Minneapolis area, it's like uh we'll say 85%, 82%. I mean, it's it's overwhelmingly white, right? I mean, we live in Minnesota, settled by Scandinavia. Uh I mean, this is what it is. Like, and to say that's a bad thing is insane. Um, but they do. So he worked for Target though, and they had these quotas. They they had a diversity hiring quota. They wanted to hire like 25 or 30 percent of the workforce as as uh black individuals. It's like hold on a second, that doesn't even match the hennepin county demographics, and you're in like then you go into the greater state of Minnesota. That doesn't even make sense.
SPEAKER_04Dude, how that's that's what they're doing. It's like how about the state of Minnesota scandal that came out uh probably two months ago? So if you applied for the state of Minnesota as a white person and they hired you, the HR department had a form of a reasoning for hire over somebody else. So if they hired what somebody over a minority, they had a special they had to explain why they're doing that, and that was brought out, and there was uh, I believe the DOJ put a some type of lawsuit or something against Minnesota for that.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, there was a lawsuit. No, that's yeah, they were doing that. Um dude, this is mind-boggling. This is the state we live in, dude. It's uh and I um while we're on Minnesota, Minnesota fatigue, let's add to it. Um, did you see that the they did something about the learing centers? They actually are are investigating.
SPEAKER_03Oh, there's slow motion raid? Yeah, yeah, slow motion, they're like but they're doing something. Yeah, they're doing something.
SPEAKER_06Like, why is it so late? No, I I agree. I agree. But the funny part about this was when they were when uh Nick Shirley went viral for that, exposing all this stuff. Uh Tim Wals came out and said, uh, he's just targeting immigrant communities. This is just uh full of hate. Now they're doing something about it. There's indictments. I think there's like 23 federal uh raids on these daycares, I don't know, which are overwhelmingly, I think they're all owned, Somali, Somali owned and run. Now Tim Walsh is taking credit for it. He came out, he tweeted about it and said, We with our help, we are helping fight back against fraud. It's like, dude, hold on a second. You are just against this, you jackass. Yeah, but those memories are quick. It's controlling the narrative. It's it's that's the dirty politics 101, and that's we're at the heart of it. Yeah, absolutely. So have you guys paid attention to the gerrymandering stuff? Yeah. Have you? No. I've been gone, I've been off the grid. I'm like, are we are we looking at redistricting Minnesota? I think there's a uh they can't because Republicans hold power in the Congress. Okay. So they hold it's it's a like even split, so Republicans can block it. Okay. They don't they can't do it here. And even if they did, they'd only gain like one seat. Yeah, I was gonna say, but but okay, so yeah, you were gone during that. All right, so this is our uh this is we'll get into this is first period, folks. First period politics, Minnesota politics, uh a country divided. That's the yeah. So in Virginia.
SPEAKER_03Can I stop you right there? And why and if you're listening right now and you're like, what the hell do I care about Minnesota? It starts somewhere. And it and it's just like you get a little bit of cancer right here on your hand, like skin cancer. Before you know it, it spreads everywhere. No, right? You need to be aware and listen to what's happening in Minnesota, what's happening in Oregon, what's happening in California before it gets to your state.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, no, I I agree. I agree. So back to the gerrymandering thing. This is not new to politics, it's been a thing for a very long time. And I think the greatest example they have is of Illinois. Can you pull up the current districting of Illinois? Can you pull that up and see or see if you can find it? It's laughable. Um, but I oh and even the Northeast, I think uh you take the New England states and you pull that up after when you get a chance to. The the New England states have it's like 45% Trump voters, 55% Kamala, right? So it's there's a difference, but the entire congressional map in the Northeast is blue. There's not a single Republican representative in New Hampshire, in Vermont, in uh, you know, Massachusetts, Connecticut. It's all blue. So these 45% of Trump voters, they're not represented. So again, my point is gerrymandering has been a thing forever in politics. Virginia, they wanted to redistrict their map, and they had one of the most even maps. Do you got that up, Dave?
SPEAKER_04Does this look like the right one Illinois?
SPEAKER_06I think so. Well, uh maybe can you pull up Republican or red versus blue and just so you can better show that off how they how they vote? I mean, you can even see that one that's red there on the middle bottom. Yeah, look at that. Look how insane that is. I mean, they're clearly trying to get voters um anyways.
SPEAKER_03You know what you can explain what's gerrymandering.
SPEAKER_06Where you you take a district that is, let's say um like Virginia, this is the greatest example. Virginia, when you get into Washington, D.C. area, the northeast part of Virginia, it's the bluest part of the country. Washington, D.C., I mean, you're the Republicans in Washington, D.C. are Democrats. I mean, let's be honest. Like it's uh it's insane. Um so what they'll do, and this is how they they they tried to do it, you got it? Uh yeah, they take the metro area and split the metro. They'll take, let's say, for Minnesota, what they would do is they'll take part of Hennepin County, super blue, and they'll add it to the entire northwest part of Minnesota, that's which is very red, but there's just enough people in Hennepin County that will cancel all of them out and they'll be blue. And then they'll take the metro areas of all these other places and then they'll they'll draw, they'll go up like 169. We'll say they'll go all the way up 169 to International Falls, just a little sliver of that district, and then they'll they'll widen it out, and then they'll they'll cancel out all those people. That's how they do it. Yeah, so admin. So this is uh no, this is not it. That's not it. Well, it's Illinois. That's counties, those are counties. No, no, no.
SPEAKER_04Uh well, just red and blue voters as far as uh because when we see a district map, it'll show all how they take this a Chicago area and like that little sliver.
SPEAKER_06They divide it up so and the the counter-argument, the the level liberal argument would be like do you these idiots think that land votes, these idiots think land votes. It's like dude, you're you're totally missing the mark on this. But they'll take these population centers in in Virginia. They had a, I think it was six to seven red, uh blue versus red, which is pretty close to accurate as far as the total population, as you know, slightly more voted for Kamala Harris. Six six representatives in Congress for the Republicans, seven for Democrats. They redistricted, they made all these crazy lines. Can you pull that up? Find the find the the proposed Virginia districting, find that. So now instead of a 50-50 state at the popular vote for the presidential, they would have made it 12 Democratic districts to one Republican district. So that's what they're trying to do. And and a judge shot that down. So we'll see if it stands or not. But so that's what they're doing. And this is where I'm like, and I think I might have said this on the last podcast, or maybe I said it last stream on education.
SPEAKER_04Um dude, I don't know what you're looking at. Uh propose Virginia redistricting map. I know I don't know why it's not pulling up like a um I'll try and find it. That was it, that was it. Down right there.
SPEAKER_06This one? Nope. That one? Left. Second from the left. Nope. Down. Yep.
SPEAKER_04Oh yeah, there it is. Yeah.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, so that's uh that's what they would change it to. So there'd be one Republican 12 Democrats. Uh get it out of it. Um now, Ron DeSantis in Florida, he's proposing one that would make it like I don't know how many there are, let's just say 31. It'd be like, it's there'd only be like two or three Democrats. And I'm like, you know what? That's that's what you have to do. I'm all for it. Screw these people. Republicans need to start actually being ruthless just like the Democrats are. And like another one, they're not passing the SAVE Act because Republicans in the Senate don't want to pass it. Pass it. Get rid of the the filibuster 60 votes and pass it. If you actually give a shit, pass it. But they're the Republicans are they're spineless. That's and they need to be gerrymandering every single state that they can. Another example of spinelessness, Indiana voted to gerrymander, so it would be like, I think they have eight or nine. It would be eight Republicans to zero. They said, oh, it would be unfair. It would be unfair to Gary, Indiana, and Indianapolis. So we're gonna let the Democrats have two districts. So they could have had all Republicans, but they said, no, we're gonna, we're gonna be fair. And then you have Democrats just sliding in. I think California's redistricting.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, California for sure is.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, I think there's gonna be one Republican in California now out of uh what is it, 55 seats?
SPEAKER_03Let's just take this down to a local level, okay, for a second. Let's just bring this back because this is so big that I think the average person is like, holy shit, well, what do I do about it? I want to say that when I was so I was doing renovation of this city, I was uh on this little team to renovate the city. When I first came here, this town was red, it's blue now. Yeah, oh and it is and what one of the things that happened, I remember sitting in these meetings and they would say, Hey, the state of Minnesota is gonna give us three million dollars if we allow some low-income housing to come in here, you know, developments. We've done that. We allowed a lot of low-income developments to come in here, which has tilted us, right? So if you see that coming in your neighborhood, that low-income developments, that's they're bringing votes. So if you're if you're kind of purple-ish, more on the red side, you bring in that low-income housing, guess what happens? You tilt, you tilt over to that blue. And that's they do that shit on purpose. Oh, yeah, that's true. That's not a that's not a that's a strategy.
SPEAKER_06Of course they do, yeah. That's just like immigration, the unchecked immigration. That's they know that it will flood and and give them more votes. Uh, so back on the gerrymandering thing before we move on, the Supreme Court just ruled, I don't know what they called it, but um in the southern states like Louisiana, Mississippi, they made, I don't know if it was a law or whatever, but they they essentially said, like, oh, if you have, let's say uh 80% of your district was white, you'd have to have a black district. You had to have a black district in those states. You had to. So it was literally racially changing these um votes, right? Changing these representatives. The Supreme Court ruled against that, six to three. So they can't do that anymore. So that's gonna give Republicans 12 more seats. So um yeah. And as much as people are uh upset with Trump, dude, it doesn't matter. This is the you have to do it. You have to otherwise it's it's over, dude.
SPEAKER_04It's been over. Well, I mean, I I I there I don't know I hate I hate saying the black pill part, but I really do think since you look all throughout time, since roughly JFK was shot. I mean, we have had so many times that the self-serving interest of the politicians keep has kept growing throughout this time. Where you look at the last 20 years, it's 30 years since the 90s, that's all it really has ever been. And uh there's no way to change that because nobody is gonna go take office. Because to take office and get the R or the D next to your name, you have to prove that you're gonna follow the rules, do as you said, for the special interest groups, for the lobbyists, for all these people.
SPEAKER_06It's not or they release the dirt on you, yeah.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, and it you can't be an independent because you get no money. Then you get both parties attacking you, because they'd rather have a D or an R than an independent. I think it's just the black pill in me, the greatest bread and circus right now is politics.
SPEAKER_06I do agree with you on that. I've always thought that too, but yeah, I don't know what the answer is.
SPEAKER_03I really don't it's crazy when you think back to the Revolutionary War time frame where people were losing all of their wealth, their freedoms, everything to make this country work.
SPEAKER_04Over three percent T tax for crying out loud.
SPEAKER_03I know it's to make this country work. I mean, like very rich people lost everything. Like their everything, their land, their people, their their employees, their businesses, their their their tr you know, their wealth. They gave up everything, they sacrificed their lives, everything to to make the us free. And we sit here and we just frickin' fiddle eff it away.
SPEAKER_06You know, just you know what the crazy part is, is uh well that's the the crazy part is a lot of those guys were like 18 to 20 years old. The found the founders of the country. They're aliens as far as you got 18 and 20 year olds that are afraid to go pump their own gas because of anxiety. I'm dead serious, bro.
SPEAKER_03I'm dead serious. It actually starts to piss me off when I start thinking about like what we've done. I mean, like we've been handed this amazing freaking like sacrifice that people before us made. We've been handed it, now it's up to us to take care of it, and we are effing it up.
SPEAKER_06And that's where I'm like, that's where I always think like how on an individual level, because we talk about all the the bread and circus at the national level, because I think it is mostly entertainment. I do. I actually don't think we have as much power as we think we do, unfortunately, at the national level for sure. Um, but how as an on an individual level, how do we how do we act right and and make sure our kids are raised correctly to not feel this this uh insanity, this this sadly the fall of America.
SPEAKER_03I hate to say that, but we have to stop. It's not that we don't pay taxes, we have to stop, we have to slow down the federal tax piece. This the federal tax piece of it, there's no we can't go, I can't go talk to the president. No, I mean shit, good luck. 90% of Americans can't ever talk to the president. 99.99, yeah. It's it's like it's that's damn near impossible, right? So all those people sitting upside there in in uh Washington, DC, if you ever go there, you you look at you can't even get like within like a hundred yards of that place.
SPEAKER_06You know, I mean you can't you can look behind a like Well this the guy that tried to kill Trump did, you know we'll get to that in a second.
SPEAKER_03But you can't, you know, it's it's just it's they're unreachable. And these are the people that are representing us. The people that are representing us are unreachable. It needs to come backwards, it needs to come back into the not just the state, but the local level, right? Like that's that's where I want to pay my taxes. I want to pay my taxes to the people here in this city. I want I don't I want the majority to go to the city. Do I want some money to go federally like for defense? Yeah, sure. Like I want our borders secure, but I mean, how much more do we need uh from federally?
SPEAKER_06I don't know, dude. I think we need to have $40,000 per student in the inner cities. I really do. You know, I want my yeah. That's why we do totalitarianism. Okay, but on that, um, I can't remember where I saw this. It was on like Tim Poole or something. Someone, uh a guest, or so when George Washington, one of his things back in the day was we should no representative in Congress should represent more than I think like 25,000 people, and right now Congress rep one congressperson represents about 700,000 people. That's a problem.
SPEAKER_03That is a problem.
SPEAKER_06So you should have access to your Congress person. Right. Whoever is representing you, you should be able to send them an email and and say, hey, we don't like this. You know, I talked with my community, we all agree that we don't want this. You know, represent us, be our voice, because that's what you're supposed to do. But 700,000 people, there's not a chance you can do that for 700,000 people. Right. Now 25,000 people, yeah, that's more doable. Definitely more doable. Well, this so there should be his point was there should be well over a thousand people in Congress right now. Keep the hundreds, maybe it was maybe it was uh Ben Sass, actually. Maybe there, I think it was Ben Sass in the 60 minutes interview I was talking about. There should be the 100 senators, keep that, but there should be well over a hundred or well over a thousand Congress people at this point.
SPEAKER_04Well, and I think the wild part is is for our kids, this is the really scary part, is as you start seeing these deals play out with like Palantir, for instance, I mean, the whole social state of the big brother watching you, like they've been doing that for years, but now that all of our information is gonna be stored in these databases and we are gonna be judged on who we are, what we look at, how we scroll, uh, track our phone on location, where we go all the time, and then it's going to be able to project if we're gonna commit a crime, how we're going to commit it, where dude, it and we are there. We are very much there.
SPEAKER_06You literally just described that Alex Jones clip that we played. Now they're gonna be able to add stimuli beforehand because they're be able to predict the future.
SPEAKER_04Dude, he said this like 10 years ago. But dude, the Palantir thing is wild because people don't believe that, oh, we'll never get a social credit score. But when it happens and you start not being able to even cross state lines, then you're gonna go, wow. But 80% of us that fall within the line of like, dude, we don't do anything wrong. It doesn't affect me, therefore, why should I care?
SPEAKER_06That's what people I just said this last week or last time we had a show. I said that with uh the wealth tax in Minnesota. There's add another thing to the mountain of madness in this state. So it's only it's only $10 million. It doesn't include me. So why should I care? Yeah, oh yeah, yeah. Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? That but that's the mentality people have.
SPEAKER_03So I was just this weekend, I was with the guy that created the language for AI that can read human language, right? And he this guy's a multi-billionaire. And he told me that they're right now, like right on the cuff of launching, not even a that doesn't exist, but launching predictive, uh, predictive AI, like where it's it basically tells you like it knows, so you'll have an assistant, and your assistant will know what you're probably gonna do, and it will recommend you not to do that or to do another thing. See right, and it will give you all the data why you should and shouldn't do what you were uh it you think it thinks you're about to do.
SPEAKER_06Well, that's that's been a thing. So it's watching your phone. On some level, that's been a thing. Have you ever had a uh uh notification from Google pop up like uh it says uh I remember this happened like six years ago and I went golfing with my buddy. It was like uh should I uh type in the address of your home on Google Maps, right? Because it's like, oh, it's 6 p.m. You're about to go home. Right.
SPEAKER_03Let me help you with that. Right.
SPEAKER_06So it's already at some level has been in effect.
SPEAKER_03But it's way beyond that. And I'm not going to talk about it right now on camera. Like because I I'll ask if I can, you know, but um because I would love to talk about it right this second. But it's super scary. I mean like it's it manages your whole life. Yeah. Everything.
SPEAKER_04And so dude, the idea that we are free and that we will our our freedom is absolutely it sounds terrible but we our freedom is absolutely at a point of we're probably not free because we're willing to trade it off for the amenities that we have and the the ease of life. Yeah and trading privacy for security so here's where it goes.
SPEAKER_03So I I'll I'll I'll I'll just uh divulge a little more is where it goes is it starts looking at your health records too right it's monitoring like what you're getting from your doctor's offices and it's telling you hey you're supposed to be taking this that if you're not correcting that then your insurance it bids insurances for you and then your pricing moves on your insurance your car pricing moves it's constantly you know it's analyzing like what are you paying for insurance where's better premiums at or where's the better options there are at or where your investing is at like it's doing like a full everything that you're doing moving in life and saying where you're heading with your and dude major switching gears but you guys have heard of the P52s and P47s?
SPEAKER_05The what?
SPEAKER_04Like airplanes oh my goodness dude where have you guys been I didn't know they're the aliens okay they're the time traveling aliens that are in time right now that are trying to because the P47s want I just threw a cam of bounce and hit you hit my eyeball I cannot believe you guys haven't heard about this this is why all the the scientists are dying.
SPEAKER_03Dude I just said we were we're getting rid of books.
SPEAKER_06Remember the time travelers I'm telling you so so okay hold on I will say okay so I will say on that there's a couple of examples that of these people that have gone missing right yeah where you look at some of the things there's that one lady that went viral she was schizophrenic dude like I think she had a severe mental health problem but do and that's not even that's like looking at the videos myself I mean it's like dude you I don't know if that was an actual scientist this sounds like a crazy person that was just filming herself in front of camera the the in front of the camera yeah and people are just running with it now they're they're using it to solidify the other examples and I'm not saying the other example the other examples are pretty crazy pretty shocking yeah but yeah I don't know I I this is where we haven't heard about it dude I can't handle being online man it's not fun being online anymore it's it's like it's constant constant conspiracy constant Jew stuff constant boom and bloom constant this constant that's like oh you know what hey kids want to go outside should we go to church today? Like that's that's actually enjoyable. That's I so I'm gonna I'm gonna do that instead. I can't I'm settled I'm so sick of being online dude I'm so sick of it the only like what the stuff we're talking about is important but at the same time it's not more important than you know other things family faith right so that's where it's like what can we do on an individual level maybe the answer is to just completely unplug.
SPEAKER_03I'm just gonna say this Brett had this is inside Brett had it right all along what Brett had it right all along you know he's disconnect Brett Brett like yeah he had it like he he had it he had it right all along who's Brett you always say his name wrong yeah whatever but he had it right all along I don't know what you're talking about.
SPEAKER_04Well okay we'll talk about later I don't want to say his name because yeah yeah um but no we're at it we're at a tipping point in humanity as a whole where we're literally dude we're we're at the a crossing point where in dude 10-15 years why would the oligarchs and the tech people want us plebs around when we they don't need us why would they want some guy hanging out doing a podcast another guy hanging out fixing cars when guess what they don't really need us we're we're we're getting to that point in 10 years when robots start walking around we look like iRobot it's gonna be a different story and then people are gonna go wow dude it's wild that's why we gotta be Amish it's an option but or without we gotta be Amish without actually being Amish.
SPEAKER_06We just gotta come that's what I mean I think I think the answer is just to completely unplug dude I really do. Yeah I think the answer is to unplug and not feed into the I mean what else can you do?
SPEAKER_03I I was just telling Idaho like around a bunch of Mormons and I was like you guys are doing it right I was they were like prepping and they have like all their like I love the Mormons man I'm telling you I love the Mormons yeah they had their own water supplies generators running like off grid generators that were running off of uh hydrogenerators I'm like what is going on here this is the way to do it you know do it yeah they're like we don't we don't we we're not calling on the government being here anyway well you know what let's uh let's actually get into something here we'll get into we we'll get into some more but I've got a bunch of stories uh that we got to go over here because D what you got to leave at uh two well a little before two okay that's what I thought okay so we got a we got about a half hour um so let's do some fun facts here period number two grab your pens and pencils folks here we go fun fact number one new study reveals drugs like Ozempic are responsible for over 8500 fewer fewer annual truckloads of food and beverage deliveries in the US that's amazing isn't that crazy well dude alcohol alone is on a huge huge decline yeah we've talked about that's and that's good I think um so you keep going no I was gonna say have you seen a lot of these celebrities though that are on Oz Epic yes dude I just saw one the other day the face yeah I was like oh my gosh that's that's tragic doesn't American trag no she looks sick yeah and she wasn't even fat that was the other thing it's like what were you thinking? Why dude what not I just had an in-law that died and and like the uh and some people in the family are saying it was from the Olympic for real well I mean you know there's no spoofy out at this point but yeah that's I know I'm just thinking sitting here as you're talking about that I'm like holy moly really do I know another person?
SPEAKER_04Mm-hmm I do oh no no no you don't know no no well a quick fix dude is never the fix I don't know how we haven't learned that throughout history color deficit damn it that's it it's it's basic answer you ever try and just duct tape something you're gonna have to fix it later yep duct tape your mouth later all right here we go more uh over half the planet's internet traffic is now made up of AI bots per Lumen technologies I see that yep and that's I was I question that on on um on X all the time I see some of these accounts where I'm like you gotta I even I go into a like rumble yeah rumble the the video platform it doesn't seem like there's a hundred thousand people watching how come there's only five comments that doesn't make sense hey but you see it on X you see it on almost every platform now and what so this is the other part with uh on that what's gonna happen is all the the moderators the work the people that are because you've guys ever seen the uh there was a little video a little like 30 minute documentary about the Facebook admins that review flag content oh yeah very dark I think vice did a thing on that yeah I think it was yeah and so what's gonna happen here is just through AI and the the deep seek ability for them to be able to process all the information inside there those got jobs will be gone dude these giant tech companies these social medias will be literally ran by a board of people and all these AI agents monitoring it.
SPEAKER_03Can you think of think about this as a as a country like the warfare that we're in with these bots right so if somebody for example we have Joe Biden and does nothing to all these countries countries are running around doing all kinds of shit we're giving up power we're giving up you know all kinds of crap to these countries then we get a guy like Donald Trump comes in and he's like no I'm not dealing with this shit. No you're this is how it's gonna be well then they can turn on their bots and say go online go on Facebook go on freaking Instagram blah blah blah and say Donald Trump's uh you know a racist Donald Trump's this Donald Trump's that we could be fighting against all these bots they could be influencing a lot of these young kids' minds that are on these social media platforms and then they're like you know what you're right Donald Trump is a bad person everybody else agrees everyone they want to get in line with everyone else right they're like well everyone else thinks that why shouldn't I? You know the majority can't be wrong.
SPEAKER_06Well what if the majority is countries like Iran or countries like Egypt or countries like that don't have China that don't have our interests they have their interest and they want to get rid of Donald Trump out of office and they want to put in whoever the other guy is that Democrat that uh the Jamal Khashoggi documentary kind of revealed how uh oh yeah where they're spreading information yeah yeah that was pretty wild yeah just to try and control that narrative yeah about on everything it's happening yeah well that's why honestly uh uh Elon buying Twitter was one of probably saved us sincerely probably saved speech and I because as soon as he did that then Facebook followed suit Facebook lenient went a little bit more lenient um YouTube even uh yeah so him buying Twitter was historic honestly I think and people overlook that quite a bit um but let's uh so on internet traffic fun fact number three church now has two times the global search interest on Google versus OF and you can't say that on YouTube so OF use your imagination uh so zero idea what you're talking about girls women naked women okay okay okay uh so just last year they were tied so and I think that's where we've talked about it on here where young people are going to church and faith more than ever. Nice because I think that people are realizing well like look we have all this abundance we talked about before the show our lives whether you know the blue haired crazy people think so or not even their lives everyone's lives in America is a amazing if you live in America in 2026 your life is amazing compared to 99.9999% of human history it's amazing like your life is so easy you can order groceries and get it delivered to your door without leaving your couch like that's crazy it's insane how easy life is without the food getting hot or not hot or your cold food warming up or like you get it just it's wild.
SPEAKER_04You have an abundance of entertainment you have an abundance of information you could do learn anything you want you could start any business you want it's incredible but we have never been more unhappy the the country has never been more divided things have never been people have never been on more antidepressants so clearly uh things don't do it for people uh abundance doesn't doesn't make you happy and I think the younger generation is seeing that and be like huh maybe there really is maybe there really is something to this this faith thing maybe I should look that up maybe that's where purpose lies maybe maybe true purpose is in is in God maybe that's what it is and I think that's where that's good right that hopefully that's our only hope in my opinion is is uh a mass awakening to to faith if I'm 18 right now if I'm 16 17 18 now all the way up to like 25 maybe even 30 you don't have a house yet dude what there you have not a lot of hope going into the future if you are born after about 2000 I would say because you're going to school you're getting these degrees even some degrees that are uh a lot of tech degrees now are essentially becoming less and less relevant with the evolution of AI so there goes your four five six years of college learning about how to code all this other stuff and then okay well shoot there goes a hundred grand 150 grand down the toilet for something that used to be really good. Yeah now how about a house dude you're you ain't buying no house man I'm sorry but the idea of owning a home is every single year is getting more and more out of touch with reality.
SPEAKER_06I would agree so and I think you could buy a hundred thousand dollar house in many of the towns around here yes you just you're not gonna buy a a hundred thousand dollar house in downtown Minneapolis I'm sorry you're just you're not gonna be able to live in the suburbs you're not gonna be able to do that you're not gonna be able to live across the street from a target you're gonna have to move for that so if you want to own a house you absolutely can that's so the and I see the the arguments like it's $400,000 for a median home. Yeah well you're looking at the suburbs all right so yeah you're gonna have to sacrifice a little bit if you want to be a homeowner. Owning a home though at this point for anyone is probably not a good idea. It costs more to own a home than it does to rent a home yeah in the long run. At the current rates and the current prices.
SPEAKER_04So and then okay a vehicle I mean dude trying to find a used vehicle these days you cannot find a vehicle under a thousand bucks that's gonna run next couple years.
SPEAKER_06That's true yeah so you're in I bought probably several vehicles under a thousand bucks and they each lasted over a year. Yep. But yeah that doesn't exist anymore.
SPEAKER_04You just keep going down the list though dude the the hope for if I know if I was younger dude it is a very the perfect line is going to going to church finding faith because it's it's the end of the day it's the only thing that matters in my opinion.
SPEAKER_06It really is. Yep. And it's good to see that younger people are realizing that because yeah I mean it took me a long time to realize that you see Theo Vaughn like kind of had a moment on talking about God. Yeah he I mean he has several times but recently that one went pretty viral yeah which I think is great and I think hopefully he keeps pushing that message. I think about that all the time like am I doing good with our you know platforms like should I be pushing this more?
SPEAKER_02Right.
SPEAKER_06Um but yeah of course um number four here it takes about 50 glasses of water to grow the oranges to make one glass of orange juice the more you know wait wait what yeah isn't that crazy it takes what it takes about 50 glasses of water to grow the oranges to make one glass of orange juice jeez that's crazy stat there but yeah um and then number five mosquitoes have killed more humans than all the wars in history that's amazing it's about to be wood takes dude I know I know we've been super paranoid at our house we found one in our our youngest girl uh she had one in her hair no was it walking or stuck I think it was walking still have to ask my wife she found it but we were outside and our neighbor was like there's one in her hair luckily she has like super white hair so you can just easily see it when was this last week no I know not all ticks have it but you still gotta be careful like I know a lot of people have had you had Lyme's disease yeah I've had bullseye get the hell away from me I've had bullseyes but I've taken antibiotics like I've never oh dude I remember that what was that like five years ago?
SPEAKER_03Yeah yeah that messed you up didn't it I guess I don't know I'm just messed up in general I'm just messed up in the case that hasn't gone away but I got hit with a bottle cap one time lost my vision for life but if they say if you even eat enough carrots it'll come back. Yeah but these wood ticks you see in that they can't you can't even like people are getting like uh allergies that they can't eat meat have you seen that? That's wild well that's why have you seen that conspiracy that it's uh bioengineered oh for sure like uh Janelle my wife she's been like nonstop like there's there's farmers are finding boxes full of ticks and they're there you know she's I need to find a so I've seen that and I'm not saying that's not true.
SPEAKER_06What but and I keep see I see people say it online but I've never actually seen a picture or a video of someone saying dude look at this box of ticks it's just random people saying it that this is happening but there's no evidence of it.
SPEAKER_03So I'm not saying it's not true but I'm just saying like there's got to be some more back in this I I'm not saying I will say this I gotta say this is bioengineered I'm 51 at 51 years old when I was a kid there was not nearly this many ticks it's crazy how many ticks there are I mean you could be all stomping in the woods all day long and it would be kind of a rarity to get a tick on you. Yeah you know I mean now you go out in the woods you get hammered.
SPEAKER_06Yeah it's really bad ticks I know our dog brings them inside too so we have like this little glove that my wife bought that you can wipe them. Oh my gosh when we first used it it was like there's like five ticks on them.
SPEAKER_03Oh my gosh I know I know and we're not even we're in a I would say rural spot but it's like I mean it's in a neighborhood right it's not like a super low trafficked area right I mean gotta get you gotta get uh chicken you gotta get chickens gotta get chickens um I'm actually not against that at all um but anyways let's uh let's move on to our third period class we got two more classes here uh like five more headlines so we got social studies period here before we get an early release today folks early out day today enjoy the enjoy the break I don't even know why we're having it early out but we're having it early out um all right so on Legos I said I had a story this is crazy so this guy 28 year old California man allegedly bought expensive Lego sets kept the pieces and returned the boxes filled with dry pasta a scheme they say had he repeated around 70 times nationwide that's amazing before being caught what a bastard it reminds me of those days uh not saying we did this what when people not say we did this when people would return the 1999 Madden game in the 2000 Madden rental oh dude yes yeah yeah I'm again so I I do think we rented a game a couple times where the bad the old version was in there people would do that all the time um so the target that the George Floyd target that burned down yeah during the riots I worked there okay and uh on Lake Street and it's the ghetto there right oh yeah it's the ghetto and I worked the return desk we would get like people would like feel I'm and I swear to god people would feel rocks they would buy a TV they would bring it in the shit would be excuse my language they would they it would be taped with like the box the scotch box yeah the TV box would be with scotch tape and you'd be like you know and you're like I gotta open this you know and you open it up and be like it'd be it'd literally be like rocks or or things inside the TV box you know they're like I never even opened it I don't know how this happened like I don't know how this happened you know what happened yeah they're like you know but it it it did happen I mean like it it happened all the time VCRs back in the days oh my gosh the stuff people would swap out was crazy the other big problem too we would have is people would like what they would do is they would this is way that they would steal back in the days they would stuff like uh say like a blender or something like that a box full of CDs right in the store and then they would leave they would just leave up and leave and then they would come back later on and buy that box right so that they didn't get caught like yeah oh my gosh dude actually on that when I worked at Fleet Farm in town um I don't even know a buddy came through my line was like dude I'm gonna take a couple of these hooks and I was like all right whatever dude I'm like just don't even tell me about it.
SPEAKER_04Well anyway we all got brought into the office and a couple of the buddies what they would do is they would take the bow cases the plastic ones and they would fill it dude with thousands and thousands of dollars with tackle and stuff with tackle hunting gear wow and they couldn't really pinpoint how much money was in there so they technically only got a small charge but dude there should have been criminal charges like uh did you get in trouble dude I had to go to a class yeah for and I'm like dude 99 cents I'm like I didn't for for the hooks that they took yeah I was like I get it but listen I wasn't a saint I'll tell you right now like if like my friend came through my line and they had like 10 things I'll tell you right now at least three of them were getting thrown past the end of the bag.
SPEAKER_03You know they weren't getting beeped.
SPEAKER_06I'm just being honest like I wouldn't do that today but like when I was you know when I was 16 years old I was just like you know I'm I mean we were just trying to figure it out we were a little bit of but dude stuffing something full like dude why so one of the new trends that I have seen several times now pop up on my feed is uh people will it's like a how what can I get away with thing on on Instagram reels. So they will take like a a washer or a dryer a thousand dollar piece of equipment right and they will they will slap a uh a banana tag on it the banana price tag oh yes and then they will go and scan it at the self-checkout yeah the person will come you know type in the little code then he'll there the one guy was at Walmart he handed the receipt to the lady she swiped it with her highlighter and was like have a nice day didn't even look at the receipt so he's like auditing them right but he got away with it he got away with a giant uh washing machine or whatever the hell he bought it was like a $700 thing that he charged 99 cents bananas for right I'm on that too I love when they take like a display piece and they're like you'll be like dude I'm gonna try and buy this shelf off the freaking uh the you know the actual shelf of in Walmart by pasting the banana peel on there and yeah sometimes I'll be like yeah oh my god what if you went into Costco and you bought like three like like a banana and some fruit and something like that and then you just threw it in the freaking trash and then you walk back in there and you grabbed like three expensive items and walked out you know they're like one two three you know they count the items it's crazy dude one of the big things that at Target right now that I was talking to and you probably already heard me say this before but palming palm is a big thing.
SPEAKER_03So what they'll do is they'll take like they'll put a a UPC code the barcode in their in their hand like this and say they're buying an expensive item. Oh yeah and as as they as they go across they're like beep you know they'll they'll wipe their hand across At the same time, same concept then.
SPEAKER_06The different barcode with a lower price thing.
SPEAKER_03Right, right.
SPEAKER_06That's yeah, that's what they get though. And I'm not saying they should people shouldn't steal, of course, but that's what these companies get for doing self-checkouts. Like, what do you expect to happen? You're you are enabling thieves. Right. Get rid of the self-checkouts, hire more people.
SPEAKER_04That's the answer. The old meme. Oh, it's $99 here going to self-checkout. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03You know, you think I mean again, we're probably getting to the point too where AI is probably just looking at the dang box and saying, hey, look at we know how much this is. We don't have to look at the UPC. Yeah. Oh, dude, they did they did make that.
SPEAKER_04I'll try and pull it up. They have this uh new self checkout that they are testing out that you could take your cart through like a metal detector type thing, and it would just boom, and then you're paying right through your phone. Um so you would, dude, seamlessly.
SPEAKER_03That in New York.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, you just walk out, you don't even have to dude take the 10 minutes to check out.
SPEAKER_03They have that at airports now. Yeah, you can go into airports and like you you just take whatever you want and it charges your phone. That's wild.
SPEAKER_06That is wild. Um, okay. Next story here. We got let's see, one, two, three. All right. This is a crazy one on uh minority report and all these this tech advancement. This was a huge story this week. Every new car in the US will be required by law to have tech that puts constant surveillance on the driver by 2027. AI in your car will determine if you're sober and fit to drive, automatically turning off the vehicle if it determines you're a danger on the road. Welcome, Palantir. Thank you. Welcome, welcome, welcome. That and it the crazy part about this is I was thinking the other day, I I always see the memes and I'm all I'm turning in that old bastard, like, we're getting off track in this country. But uh the the appliances, everything has a chip in it. Our freaking dishwasher, it's a really nice dishwasher. We paid a lot of money for it. I always get this stupid error message on it because of the chips. Ah, you know, I'm like, it's a stupid piece of junk. So I was thinking, I'm like, why don't we just start a company that makes the most basic thing possible? No, the the whole shtick is no computer chips. There's no smart technology, it's just gonna work for you. We're gonna make it to last as long as possible. If it doesn't, you get your money back. It's not gonna track you, it's not gonna sell your data, it's just a piece of equipment that works for you. So I was thinking, uh, because uh Toyota has the helix that is not legal in the States. Yeah. I was like, what if we just Oh, I think they they can sell them now. Uh I thought I saw someone say that because this is where this is how I went down this rabbit hole. They're like, uh Toyota is gonna the the conspi don't get me down. The conspiracy theorists, so you know, these people that have huge voices that just say nonsense are like Toyota's coming out with a truck next year that only costs ten thousand dollars and it's gonna completely disrupt the market. And it's got you know hundreds of thousands. I'm like, holy they're finally selling the helix. It's not the helix, and it doesn't cost ten thousand dollars.
SPEAKER_03Um here's the here's the problem with it. The EPA one, two is the uh safety uh standards. Like, so we can't that's the main reason we can't get it. They don't have dual airbags inside there. You know, you gotta have ABS, you gotta have dual airbags, and these trucks are simple trucks. I mean, they're tractors, right? They're amazing trucks, best truck built in the world is uh Alex. It is, it's the best most airbags truck in the world, right? Let's add airbags. The fuel efficiency is through the roof. It's a it's a a twin turbo diesel engine, just a little baby engine, but it's through the roof. The the the gas mileage is nuts on these things, they don't break down because they have to build a truck for these people that are living way off grid. Yeah, you know, way off grid, out in the desert, out in the freaking like deep in the mountains of Asia or and Al Qaeda. Yep, and and Al Qaeda, yeah. I mean, there's terrorist groups that need a truck.
SPEAKER_06They're always they're always driving the helix, always like the the the Yeah, yeah. The Mad Max scene, all the terrorists over there, they're driving toilet helixes, and they're just plowing through the desert. Dude, it's an amazing truck.
SPEAKER_03This is my dream truck, you know.
SPEAKER_06I want one too really bad. I want one really bad. Um, but my point is why don't we make one? Why like let's let's develop one?
SPEAKER_03We'll probably get you know because we're in America for one, you know, and like the insurances and all the freaking like it's just uh financially it's impossible.
SPEAKER_06Okay, well, here's another conspiracy, Dave. On these scientists that go missing, that's the conspiracy is that they they have tapped into the the free energy.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, I've seen that too, but I think really I I do believe this part of not even really a conspiracy is we are at a very big pinnacle point of good versus evil.
SPEAKER_06Oh, this is a question, no question.
SPEAKER_04I mean, AJ did talk about it, but you can feel it in the air, and I feel like that's part of the political it's and not even political, but everything this day and age is you're one or you're not. You can't really take the middle road. And it's I believe my personal is that everything is designed by divide and conquer. You split the population in half, you force us never to agree on anything, you force us to pick a side without being in the middle, and therefore you've divided the whole country on almost anything, dude.
SPEAKER_03I don't even like the statement good versus evil. I feel like that dilutes it. It's God versus Satan. Yeah, like I feel like that's gotta be said because good versus evil could be like, you know, I feel good. Oh, we just want to be good to people, you know. It's like, no, man, like it's good to get down to this. It's like God versus Satan. Yeah, you know, like there's a different battle going on here. Like, let's just get down to the nitty-gritty instead of watering it down.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, no, I button.
SPEAKER_03The message gets watered down too much, though, right? Oh, yeah. I think you're spot on. Yeah, but I think I think there's gonna be an awakening. I think this next generation is there's gonna be an awakening.
SPEAKER_06I think it's happening. I really do. I we talked about people going to church more. We talked about people just unplugging. It's happening, it's just is it happening fast enough?
SPEAKER_02Right.
SPEAKER_06So so we can stop this. Yeah. Um, let's uh well, more uh let's go to the next story here. Um, that's coming. Your your your vehicle's gonna be tracked. So if you want an older vehicle, you get an old land cruiser that has none of that crap in there. I love this conversation.
SPEAKER_03I could talk, I could talk about this for like three hours right now. I don't know. I could sit here and just talk about what to buy. I'm actually looking for this, it is not me either, but I've done a ton of research. Like ton of research on you know the truck to buy that's in the US that is not like any of us typically to to buy is the 2011 G-Wagon. It was the end, it was the it was the end of the naturally aspirated G-Wagon. Okay. Uh, it's like the electronics on it are perfect, the four-wheel drive is perfect on it. Like everything about it's perfect. It's a 300,000 mile truck. It's like as far as mechanically wise, it's the it's the Toyota of offerings that we have here. Is it diesel? It is not diesel, it's gasoline. It's it's comparable to like they they say it's comparable to an LS, you know, like dependability, but um, I don't know. I mean, as far as like something that you want that's all wheel or you know, four-wheel drive, end of the world kind of prepper thing.
SPEAKER_06But well, I thought you want a diesel for end of the world.
SPEAKER_03So you're gonna really bring me down the hole on that. Like I it's so I do have the end of the world stuff. Like, but you gotta start getting like you're we're now we're starting to talk like tractor cars. Like the problem with like the end of the end of the world stuff, those vehicles move so slow. Like I can't get on, I can't pull onto the highway. Yeah, you know, like they're so slow.
SPEAKER_06Is it a land cruiser diesel?
SPEAKER_03Yeah, yeah, I got I gotta diesel. Yeah, so you get a land cruiser. But you get on that, you try to swing out on the highway out there, you're like people are like freaking giving you the finger. They're like with a land cruiser? I've gotten someone found me on Facebook and was like, you mother effort, like you get, you know, and I'm serious, yeah, dude. I'm like, because there's a corner, like I'm out, I come out. So I come out of a highway or out of my house, and there's a corner, and I can't see you around the corner, right? Yeah, so when I see nothing there, I'm like, go! And I'm just roaming through the gears, you know, pedal to the metal type of situation. My trucks like is literally like a John Deere tractor going down the road. And sometimes and people are driving, you know, it's what 60, I think, is a speaker. 65, I think. Dude, people are driving it's 7580 all day long on that highway, you know, so they come flying up on me, and I'm like, damn cityots on the weekends going home.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, damn city. 6'12ers, idiots. Keep your ass down there.
SPEAKER_03But uh, yeah, they're too slow. So you kind of have to, you know, you have to kind of start looking, and you're like, okay, well, where's that generation where I can get onto the dang highway?
SPEAKER_04Dude, the non-electronics are huge, huge for the thing.
SPEAKER_06The funny part, the non-electronics like carbureted engine that you could push down a hill and diesel, you said diesel before because that's what the military will use. So there's always gonna well, if it unless things get really always gonna be diesel available.
SPEAKER_03There's and there's always some sort you can even run other other types of fuels in diesel in emergencies.
SPEAKER_06Okay. So see, I'm laughing because I've heard this conversation a thousand times. Dude, this guy on cars is out of control. It's out of control. It's like, yeah.
SPEAKER_03It is.
SPEAKER_06You look at my garage like and then I'm like, oh dude, I've heard you talk about this too many times. I'm just gonna check out. I'm leaving. I'm leaving, dude. We see here we go. Our buddy Troy, him and Troy got on cars one time. I'm like, see you guys. I thought we were gonna sit and talk about music, but here we're gonna talk about cars. Have you seen the one I got in my garage right now? Uh I don't think so.
SPEAKER_03It's the FJ43.
SPEAKER_06Uh it's a no-is that the medical one? Like it's got the the Nope, that one's gone now. Oh, it is, okay.
SPEAKER_03I I go through a lot of cars. Like I go through a lot, I buy, I like hunting down rare cars. Like rare, sorry, let me rare four-wheel drive vehicles. Let's move on.
SPEAKER_06Let's let's move on. Let's move on. Because yeah, we we are coming up here on uh we got a little bit of time left. Uh I wanted to talk about this. A couple more stories here. The DOJ, this is a week and a half ago, I think, they had or they have arrested a special forces soldier who made $400,000 betting on the removal of Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro, according to ABC. A man. Federal investigators say the soldier bet more than $33,000 just hours before Trump announced Maduro's capture. The special forces soldier was reportedly directly involved with the capture. The largest position, a $32,000 five, $32,537 bet that Maduro would be out of office by January 31st, resulted in a $1,242% profit of $404,000. Um let's see, the f the following his successful trading relating to Maduro in Venezuela related uh blah, blah, blah. He allegedly sent most of his proceeds to a foreign cryptocurrency vault before depositing them into a newly created online brokerage account the same day of the operation. Van Dyke is his name, withdrew the majority of his allegedly unlawful proceeds from his polymarket account. Um, and they are, he's not even getting charged with like insider trading. He's getting charged with three counts of violating the Commodity Exchange Act, each of which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison. That's BS. One count of wire fraud, with which carries a sentence of 20 years max, and one count of unlawful monetary transaction, which carries a maximum of 10 years. Let him go. Yep. Let him go, dude. Let him go. Absolutely let him go. You have people insider trading in Washington, D.C. All day. Tens of millions of dollars every single day.
SPEAKER_04Dude, well, what about right now, just with uh simply Trump going on 10 minutes before all of a sudden a $400 million plus position that opens up? Right.
SPEAKER_06So that I mean you have right before he announced it's always on oil, too. Always on oil. So someone close to Trump is getting insider information and doing and trading it. And it happens every time. Nobody cares. Nobody cares. So this guy, nobody should care about this guy either. If we're not gonna care about that, he should be off too. And it's not just Trump, it's it's the entirety of Congress. Nancy Pelosi was questioned about his her insider trading. Like there was a clip from like 2008 with 60 minutes when they were actually doing their job. Questioned her at one of the press conferences. Have you seen that clip? It's hilarious. She's like, I are you insinuating that we're doing something wrong here? Doing something unfair? Well, yeah, of course we are.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, like you clearly asked her question. Yeah, you're not. What's the penalty? What's the penalty? It's like it's something stupid.
SPEAKER_06Like that's the Stock Act. That was this was before the Stock Act, which Tim Wals, noble Tim Walsh, helped pass. Uh, it's like a $350 fine. If you get if you get caught or you fail to report your trades in Congress, you get a $350 fine.
SPEAKER_03And it's only been implemented once.
SPEAKER_06Yep. It's a joke. Dude, that's why it's a joke. So this guy, if he goes to prison, that's a that is a great injustice. Talk about freedom right there.
SPEAKER_03You know what though? Yeah, and this guy too, like like look look at this guy. If you make if you're gonna go out there and offer stupid bets like that, anyways, if you're gonna be Vegas or whoever the hell's offering stupid bets like that, guess what? There's gonna be consequences.
SPEAKER_06Yep, okay. That's a stupid shit to bet on.
SPEAKER_03Like you shouldn't be, you shouldn't, yeah, you shouldn't have you shouldn't be offering those kind of bets.
SPEAKER_06Yeah. Well, they get a lot of hate for that. And this this right here, this will be used to ban Calci and Polymarket. I will mark my words. This Calci, these predictive marketplaces that are obviously wagering markets, it's not a pro it's hilarious how they skirt the the laws. And we talked about how much money it siphons from Vegas. Oh, a lot, a lot. And Vegas has a huge interest in getting these things too. But yeah, um, these will be banned within, I'm gonna say two years. I'm gonna say two years, both of these the predictive markets will be banned.
SPEAKER_03Maybe, maybe. But this is this is where the politicians always come in. They're like, hey, listen, we're gonna ban this, and then all of a sudden, guess what starts happening? That money from like that polymarket, and that they're gonna start pushing to these people's campaigns. And then they're gonna be like, oh, maybe we just forget about that.
SPEAKER_06Of course, you know, but then you got the put you got the Vegas money on the opposite side, right? Lobbying. Um, but this it'll it'll be passed some way stupid, like uh online poker was banned. Yeah, I always love that example. It was like 2007 or 2008. It was on a like a safe harbor act. It was an add-on. It was an add-on to a bill that had nothing, it had to do with like national security. Is someone some stupid representative was like, let's hold on. We've got a vested interest to cancel this, to ban this. Let's just add it on here. Nobody reads this shit, anyways. Let's let's let's let's ban online poker. You know, nobody will say anything. And it happened. So that's how it's gonna get banned for sure. It's gonna be added onto some spending bill, and no one's gonna blink an eye. Because some other headline, some other big headline, like, oh, they want to defund veterans. We got to pass the bill. Otherwise, you're an idiot, you're a bad person. You know, that's what that's how they're gonna pass it. That's how they do it every time.
SPEAKER_03The problem they have, though, right now, is that it's gotten so wild online with influencers and uh and like you know, you think of bars and all that everywhere. Like, if they do ban that, everyone's gonna lose their damn minds online.
SPEAKER_04Well, no, it'll it'll move to something else. You can't technically ban Polymarket because with a VPN, that's how it all started. Is I mean, it's a crypto base. Now they put it into an app so you can use real money. Not saying crypto isn't, but you can you had to VPN go into your wallet and actually do it. So you were a completely anonymous user at that point, but that is how Polymark Calci might die. Polymarket will never die because it is simply it's on the blockchain, dude. It's forever.
SPEAKER_06Oh, dude. Uh, let's let's move on. But, anyways, yeah, so set this guy free, dude. And I will say Trump's response I thought was kind of funny when he was like, Yeah, it's kind of like Pete Rose betting on his own team. So because that's what he said. He's like, wait, did he bet on us getting rid of Maduro? Oh, okay, that's good, let him go. Basically, did he say that? Did you say the verbatim? Not verbatim, but yeah. I think I'm pretty sure he used the the analogy of that's kind of like Pete Rose betting on his team to win.
SPEAKER_04Didn't he say the the world is a casino?
SPEAKER_06He did say that, and I was like, he's not wrong, but at the same time, I like let's maybe do something about it. Like pardon him. No, he should pardon him. He absolutely, and I hope he will. I I think he will. Um all right, uh, let's go. We got two more here. The SPLC, the Southern Poverty Law Center. Did you guys see this story?
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_06Did you see the story? I don't know what you did. This probably happened like right when you were in the mountains. Okay. Um you know the Southern Poverty Law Center. Yeah. So it's um it's an anti-hate group, which hilariously is also kind of a hate group. Um so they it was announced that there was an indictment against the Southern Poverty Law Center, and the indictment alleges that the SPLC secretly funneled more than three million dollars in funds to members of white supremacist and extremist groups. Yes. So they were fucking they were funding these these extremists kind of like a uh like an informant. Yeah, like uh, like a government entity would do. Like, hey, get in, we want you to get in there, we want you to be undercover and get us information. But they were funding this almost like, hey, well, let's hope it happens. Let's because you get in there, you know, here's some money, get in there and and feel the Charlottesville stuff. Let's, you know, maybe someone will die, and then we can we can use it to blanket all these people, call them Nazis, call them white supremacists, and cancel them, get them. And that's what they did. Oh my god, that's what they did. So hopefully this uh this place ceases to exist because it's uh I mean, for example, they have uh Matt Walsh from Dailyware, who I really I've talked about him a lot. I really like that guy, but they have him on they have him on their website as some like anti-gay hate speech guy trying to smear him and cancel him on their website. It's like, dude, that guy's he's a Catholic. What are you talking about? Like, yeah, follow the Bible, the Bible, man and woman. That's that's what you know how come you don't have the Muslims on your website? Because like that, that you want to talk about crazier stuff. Like they they literally kill people for that. Yeah, Christians aren't killing anyone for the way that they sleep with people. That's not doesn't happen in Christianity, but you don't have anything about the Muslims on there, so anyways, it's it is a hate group themselves, but that was a huge story, so you love to see them. Hopefully, this uh develops and hopefully they cease to exist because it's uh it's one of those left-wing funded things. And I said this before, one of the good things I feel like right now is that uh even with the SPLC smearing people online, calling everyone Nazis and blah blah blah, it seems to have completely lost its effect. Dude, it like nobody cares anymore. It's like you know, you know what? Call me whatever you want. I'm gonna tell the truth. You're not telling the truth. The truth is X, the truth is this. I'm gonna say it, even if it hurts your feelings, all right? Like, this is what the numbers say, this is scientific data. If you want to call that hateful and try to cancel me, go right ahead. And most people, I feel like, have that mindset. So this is they've completely lost their power already, I feel like, which is a good thing.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, kind of like uh, did you see like it just came out yesterday? Uh Fuentes. Oh, the uh that was awesome, dude. Dude, that's the one person that could do something like that, and it's like you've already canceled him through and through. Right. His popularity just went a couple clicks up, yeah.
SPEAKER_06Like, and I know a lot of people have their gripes with him, but yeah, no, that was I thought that was fantastic.
SPEAKER_03Weirdly, I saw a lot of people that didn't like him that were rooting for him on like in the comments when I was looking last night. I was watching, you know, I saw that. On Instagram, yeah, where he pushed that lady down. Yeah, so then they were like the people were like, I don't like him, but that lady went way too far.
SPEAKER_06Oh, yeah, yeah. Well, dude, not long after that, someone came to his house and tried to kill him. Yeah, they came with uh like a crossbow or something. It was really weird. They're not crossbow. I think he was wearing a uh like a snowmobile helmet, came and knocked on his door, and then the cops showed up and he like ran and the cops I think killed him. Uh I'm pretty sure they killed him. Yeah, they could be wrong, but the guy he came with the sole intent to kill Nick Fuentes. So if I'm him and someone shows up my door and is whatever that lady was doing, yeah, absolutely he maced her. She can like, oh boo-hoo. Like, if if it were my house, I probably would have I probably would have used a gun, honestly, to defend my home and my family.
SPEAKER_04Like, especially with what he has been through. I mean, you know, like you're throwing everything in what is is been through. Like, people dox him all the time online. Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER_03I mean, yeah, it's crazy, but uh yeah, she's looking to get popped in the face. I'm sure she's got pushed down, but I mean pushed down, yeah. Yeah, uh push it up.
SPEAKER_04Claim she broke six ribs. Yeah, as she gets up, she gets up like, hey, did anybody see that? But by the way, I broke six ribs.
SPEAKER_06Oh, speaking of this, okay, so we I remember who I was talking about this with, and maybe I saw this. I I think um Crowder was saying this, but he's totally right. Um, on this, and then we're gonna move to the Trump assassin. Um, so another headline going onto this and and transitioning into the last segment of the show. Um, there was so Savannah Hernandez, she's like a right-wing pundit, she's a um commentator, right? I think she used to work for us InfoWars. Yeah. Um, she was in Minneapolis, I think it was last week, and there was a a very, very disturbing video where a dad, uh the Star Tribune wrote an article talking about this everyday soccer dad, who literally I swear to God, that's all and this is what I was talking about earlier with Minnesota and how they're like the the media has lost its mind. The video shows this this 50-year-old man, out of shape, 50-year-old guy, pushing Savannah Hernandez, who's what, like five feet tall, right? Yeah, 100 pounds, pushing her from behind her head jerks back. Like she's lucky she didn't get severely hurt, right? Um, because she he disagreed with what she was doing. She was like the only one there documenting the they were at like an ice facility protesting. And um I think two people or three people, the the the daughter, the dad, and the mom, I believe, are now all getting charged, which is amazing. That's what should happen, right? In a just world. Um now moving on to the net the last segment, there was a guy that just tried to tried to kill Trump. Another guy tried to kill Trump, and we'll get to the details of that here in a second. But um the one thing that is scary about all this, we just talked about the SPLC and how they are they seem to have lost their power. Most people don't care what you like you're gonna call me a Nazi, you're gonna call me a racist. That isn't true. Call me whatever you want, it's not gonna, it's not gonna phase me. I'm still gonna keep speaking out. Whereas, you know, 10 years ago that would have been like, oh, I might lose my job, oh, I might, you know, people wouldn't have spoken out as Much as they are now. The scary part about this is these people on the left, these extremists, they're seeing that fail, that tactic fail, the cancellation tactic fail. And now they're becoming violent. They're becoming more extreme. And on to the scary part is they this is the part they truly believe that they are doing the right thing. They truly believe that the orange man is Hitler. They truly believe that all of us, because we voted for him, are bad, that we're also Nazis, that we're all and and in their eyes, getting rid of that evil is a good thing, and they have to do that because that's what that would be the noble thing to do. That's what these people, the world, the the idea that they live in, they live in this delusion. So my the the point is the scary part is is I don't think political violence is over by any means. I think these crazy people, specifically on the left, are gonna keep doing this stuff.
SPEAKER_04And you know what the biggest well uh just on the inside part of that, what I think the biggest shame is, is the government feels this by we saw and the perfect example is the the governor of Michigan. The CIA spent all of this money, all of this time, 11 of the 12 people were part of the CIA to coerce one person.
SPEAKER_05Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_04So and it is proven that CIA does sit in these group chats. Well, I don't know if that was that's not that wasn't CIA, that was FBI. Okay, well, either way, government three agency. And they do sit in these groups online and they feel these type of situations. This isn't, and that is like should infuriate, doesn't matter left, right, like it should piss everyone off that your tax dollars go to that to people for the political violence to be fueled through the that that's where our money's going is because they do sit in uh 4chan, they sit in these telegram groups, all these other groups, and it's proven how much they have influence. We usually don't know until it's all said and done. But I almost guarantee you can track back this guy. It's kind of weird that all sudden what pushed him over the edge, you know?
SPEAKER_03Yeah, yeah. What did push him over the edge? That's just it. It's a weird I mean this guy was a school teacher.
SPEAKER_04Caltech. Went to Caltech.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, but he was a school teacher, had like teacher of the month award here just recently. Weird. I mean, it was a weird situation. These are the these are the kids teaching, these are the people teaching our kids too, by the way.
SPEAKER_06Teaching your kids. This is the part though that's this these ideas that were feeding him are mainstream. The idea is that we are all evil people, all of us are evil, and we need to get be gotten rid of. And the part that's scary about that is this is this is mainstream. You got the Jimmy Kimmels of the world on late night TV talking like this. You have politicians. Uh another great example, you have like uh Bill Burr, former comedian, who goes on and and uh makes jokes about uh that the Luigi guy that shot the the United Health CEO. Yeah, they're they're like celebrating this Luigi guy as this hero that got rid of the big bad insurance company guy. I mean, that that's where we are in in the culture of our our world, the mainstream culture, those are the messages being pushed. So this guy is probably sitting there every day of his life getting fed this nonsense. And in his eyes, in his brain, the righteous, heroic, and just thing to do would be to act. Because if he just sat on his ass and let it happen, he would be the evil one. So I honestly, in some weird way, I don't I don't fully blame him. And I kind of empathize with him because he's completely brainwashed. But the point to kill somebody, no, I agree. But I mean like that's how freaking wild. If you saw someone, if you saw someone or thought you heard someone running over across the street, they had a it was a house full of kids, then they were mutilating these kids. Yeah, everyone knew about it. There, there's pictures of it, there's emails of it confirming it. You're just gonna let that person do bad things to kids. Yeah, some person are just gonna sit here. Someone's gonna take a standard. Or are you gonna sit here in your house and and just be a loser lazy piece of crap? If you really believe that, if you really believe that there's kids over there, you're gonna do something because you're not a terrible person, right? And that's what that's what these people are doing. They they are so radicalized that they are now acting on on these ideas that have been you know, brainwashed them.
SPEAKER_03Here's the weird spin on it is that now I'm seeing like on uh a lot of the left are saying, well, this was actually an inside job, like it was Trump, like had spun this to happen.
SPEAKER_06And well, they say that about the the Pennsylvania shooting too.
SPEAKER_04There's anomalies.
SPEAKER_03I uh the Pennsylvania shooting, like if that was the inside shooting. I so I shoot, I shoot. I'm I'm a I'm a I'm a fair shooter, okay? Like I shoot a lot. For that guy to shoot a freaking gas rifle that far and just say, hey, I'm gonna nick the guy in the air. Now, this would be the this would be my this would be my only on that conspiracy on that, if Trump was involved on that, right? If he pulled a Hulk Hogan, you know what Hulk Hogan used to do? Slit the ear. Yeah, he had he had razor blade in his and under his fingernail. Yep. If if Trump slit his ear and went down, if he took two plunks into the crowd, right? Just two random shots, like near him, but knew he was gonna miss him, and then Trump went down and hit his ear and came up. Okay, maybe, you know, maybe, but just there's a lot of weird stuff.
SPEAKER_06Obviously, the the part where his his entire this is where, okay, here we go. I don't I don't think that happened. I think that happened either.
SPEAKER_03I don't think that happened either.
SPEAKER_06That's what a lot of people online say, though. Right. Here's what I think is why, okay, so why is this kid's his and I want to get to the conspiracy around this new guy, right? I'll get to that in a second. But so why was we virtually know we know virtually nothing about that kid that shot Trump, right? Everything the Butler one? Yes, yeah. Pretty much everything in his house was wiped, his online presence was wiped. Yeah. Maybe, maybe, just like you said earlier, maybe there were some federal agents inside the group chats. Maybe they were talking. Maybe it wasn't their intents to feel this, but maybe that it looked like that. Maybe if all that information came out, it would make the government look very bad. Not necessarily. Not that they had like a step-by-step plan to do this to Trump, but that they were radicalizing him and pushing him to do that. Yep, like they've done before. Like they've done before many times. Yep. Um, so that's what I think the basic, you know, why don't we know more about him? That explains most of it, I think. But everyone has okay, so let's get to the conspiracy about this new guy. And there are dude, something happens, something happens, the conspiracy start flowing like and it's impossible to keep up with them. Um, and I I'm not gonna say like a lot of this uh isn't incredibly eye-opening, but it doesn't necessarily like what is it what does it mean exactly? Was it planned? And this one's wild, dude. It's like we're talking time traveler stuff, right?
SPEAKER_03So it is weird, like I okay.
SPEAKER_06So this one here, and then we're gonna get going here. But um this guy said, Okay, I'm not even gonna say this guy's hand.
SPEAKER_03I'm laughing because you because you're like, and this is it, this is it.
SPEAKER_06Okay, so this guy's name is Henry Cole, right? The guy uh or uh Cole Allen, sorry. He shot the uh he shot at President Trump. And then I want to get over the details of what happened to because I feel like it's kind of a Wait, this Cole and guy, he's the teacher? He's the one that went and shot. And if you guys haven't seen the video yet, he like I don't know what his exact plan was, but it he tried to like sprint through security to get through. And I don't know if it was he was trying to do it as fast as he could, but um, we'll get to more details in a second. But, anyways, this is insane, this guy says. There would be Trump assassin last night named Cole Allen, worked at NASA in 2014. So he and here's his he has his um what he worked at NASA, he uh summer undergraduate research fellowship students, June 14th to August 14th. So he was there for three months. Three months. So when he was probably right out of high school or his his freshman year of college, because I think he was 31 or he is 31, he's still alive. Um, he worked for NASA for three months. NASA. In 2014, NASA released a paper authored by Henry Martinez, a guy named Henry Martinez. In 2023, an account named Henry Martinez on Twitter posted a tweet which just said Cole Allen. Only tweet on the account. Yes. He has one tweet and it says Cole Allen. You are watching a scripted movie, says this guy. All of that's very weird. It's very weird. And it's valid. You can find all of it. It's all this, all this is confirmed. This is not like this is not like uh AI generated stuff. There is a Twitter account called Henry Martinez that tweeted out Cole Allen, and then it goes even further. People take the the numbers in the handle of Henry Martinez and say, look, it's these numbers mean this. They did the numerology thing. Um that's highly coincidental. I don't know. They predicted the future, and if so, they predicted a guy that failed in assassination attempt, or did someone else come back in time and prevent the assassination attempt?
SPEAKER_03I don't know. No, it could be like a but but it okay. So, how about all these weird videos? Like, or how about him eating the carpet? Or have you seen it? Eating the carpet? Yeah, like Trump had posted him a video of him like when he was down, he's like that.
SPEAKER_06I know he posts a lot of some stuff on there.
SPEAKER_03But how about the other stuff? Like, I've seen some other videos, and they may be fake. I don't even know. I can't tell. Here we are, right? But but I've seen like videos of him like holding a pizza box, and then the pizza box disappears like mid-run, you know, when he's running through security. Did you guys see that video? No, no.
SPEAKER_06I've seen I've seen too many AI generated videos where it's not here's the details that I do know. So we've seen the video. Trump posted the real video of the guy, super grainy footage of him running through, right? Yeah, I've seen the picture of him on the ground. Um, what I have seen, there's a lot of uh speculation, and CBS News I saw this morning allegedly debunked this, but um, he ran through, six shots were fired, only one shot by him. He had a shotgun with buckshot, and in his in his manifesto, he said he was gonna use buckshot because it would be less lethal, it couldn't go through walls because he was allegedly worried about uh collateral damage. He didn't want to hurt anyone that's innocent, right? Okay. So he was buckshot, and buckshot is like uh like a it's he so in his manifesto, I want to use buckshot and not a slug. Um, so buckshot is correct me if I'm wrong, like eight little shrapnels.
SPEAKER_02Depends, yeah. It's it's pretty lethal.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, it's not like bird shot where it's a hundred BBs, but it's uh it's um it'll still kill someone, right? So there were six shots fired when he finally got down. He didn't get shot. The shooter, the assassin, the would-be assassin, did not get shot, but a secret service agent got shot in the in the chest or whatever, and he had his bulletproof vest on and he was fine. I think he kept working. Trump even said that. He's like, Yeah, one of the greatest, he got he got shot. I talked to him, he's fine. So the speculation is that the Secret Service agent actually got shot by another Secret Service agent. And they're they're saying the official narrative is that that did not happen because um you know it would make them look kind of bad, right? Right. Um But if that Secret Service agent got shot with a buckshot at a close range, that might do some damage. Do some damage to and it might be more than just one shot because it's it's multiple pieces spreading out, right? Correct me if I'm wrong, right?
SPEAKER_03So yeah, anyways, um I'm I'm stuck on the terminator thought. Like the the terminate, like I just keep thinking about like, dude, both of these guys, this guy gets wiped out in Pennsylvania, like he's just like completely like off, like gone. Like, you know how the Terminator I had like kept sending robots to kill whatever John Connor, yeah. They kept sending robots to kill him. Like, are these guys time travelers too? Robots like that are something just seems really bizarre, man. Like it seems like not even normal. Like, this is not normal at all.
SPEAKER_06This is really it's a lot of weird, a lot of weird stuff is going on. Absolutely. I I'm not saying that's but I always I I I'm so there's too much conspiracy. Everything that happens has a conspiracy. Yeah, literally everything that happens, dude. Trump wakes up and takes a piss and there's a conspiracy. Like it's it's insane. Uh it's insane. So it's like Well, Trump doesn't piss, so well, there you go. There you go. Just like Kim Jong-un. He doesn't poop. He doesn't poop, yeah. Everyone knows that he hasn't pooped for 20 years. Yeah. So my point is is like, what is the truth? I generally in my head now at this point, it's like the simplest externation explanation is probably the truth. The government was behind it. That's the simplest explanation.
SPEAKER_03Why not? Uh why not? I mean, there's there's listen, in the United States, there's the United States, right? To the rest of the world. Inside the United States, there's a Democrat Republican. Inside there, there's but then we have also agencies. Why can't an agency have you know be split in half? You know, or or have secret freaking agencies in agencies.
SPEAKER_04Think of uh what I think of is everything that evolves through the agencies, how they keep we don't really hear about it for 25, 30, 40 years. MK Ultra did not die. That just evolved throughout time. Where now, dude, there's MK Ultra is something we won't hear about for 30, 40 years. And when we hear about what it was today, it's gonna be like, holy crap, dude, that is what they were doing to manipulate people into doing this kind of thing. And we see it come out every now and then, but not to the Ted Kaczynski type situation. But dude, MK Ultra is alive, it is well, and it is flourishing in situations like this.
SPEAKER_06Here's where my skepticism always comes back in. You guys have worked for the government at a city level, at a state level, federal level. Has has any experience you've ever experienced with federal, even as a civilian, working with them, paying taxes, has anything ever been efficient? Has anything ever worked properly? Has anything ever been good with the federal government in your experience in the military? Has anything ever been efficient? Has there been secrets that have been kept? Dude, yes, as far as like nefarious, like I'm gonna manipulate you and and alter the course of history. You gotta have really high security clearance for that kind of stuff. My point is, my point is all this stuff, there is no government efficiency. There's no it doesn't exist, it's never existed, it's never existed. And and and to think that all these people are holding this nefarious information back, there's no whistleblowers. Like that there's none.
SPEAKER_03If I was gonna build it, so if I was gonna build something like that, I I guess I would say, okay, you got a small crew, right? You got a small crew of bad people, and I'm talking about small crew of bad people that are very small, that are that are bad people that are uh that are gonna be the the people that are actually the we'll say the coaches of a team, right? And uh I'll use that as an example. Then you start going out into the into the group, out into the masses, and you start interviewing people. And they do like it's we'll just use the FBI for an example. They go out there, these people these dudes get, I mean, they go through crazy psych tests. They gotta go through a lot of tests. There's no saying that they can't pick bad people out of there. The psych test doesn't necessarily mean that they're picking good people. No, they could be saying, hey, oh they're picking sociopaths. Here's the guy that we need for this. Here's the guy we need for this.
SPEAKER_06They say this, like especially for CIA. They're not looking for the best and brightest, they're looking for people who have certain traits that have that psychopathic trait that can do things without feeling guilt or you know.
SPEAKER_03So so when when that person, that particular person shows up and I see it, and the marker goes off. I'm like, oh, hey, we need this guy in this department, or hey, we need that guy in that department. No, this is just say the three of us in this room that we have a certain agenda that we're supposed to be working on, right? You can literally pull and throw switches, like say, in for example, in the military, say you want to commit a crime. Um, I'm just gonna use like a generic analogy. You want to commit a crime, steal a car. You can say, Hey, um Tyler, there's there's a car down there. I need you to, your mission is to go break the window, right? Hey, your mission, uh, we have a car sitting there on the other, someone broke the window and stole the key. We need you to go down there in the hot wire and start it. We have a person that's gonna come grab the car, right? Then they come so then they go to the next guy and they say, Hey, we need you to uh go to this running car and grab it and and bring it to this location. Well, now the car just got stolen from three different people that didn't realize they just did a crime and didn't know each other because they didn't know each other. Compartmentalized, that's right. Yeah, and they didn't know each other. So it's and that's a just an analogy of genericness.
SPEAKER_06No, that's a great example of compartmental compartmentalizing the the full story from your employees and protecting the truth from getting out, the full truth.
SPEAKER_01Right.
SPEAKER_06Here's my question though. How did they convince this super Lib Tard teacher from California to go and do what he did?
SPEAKER_04Just like you said, exactly like you just said, is that you have 10 people in a 20-person group that are a three-letter agency sitting there saying, Luigi, all these people are heroes because they tried to do the right thing and they did do the right thing by doing this. And look at how he is remembered, look at that how the public perception of this person is. So then you are sitting there, uh, because you said it too, like with all the bots and the Democrats. Well, if you're on the outside and you're not part of the group, then you don't feel a part of something. So by overwhelmingly putting the the population in one direction in this little group, whatever it was, this person's hopping on board.
SPEAKER_03Right. And and and just like you said earlier, you got the you got the FBI sitting in these chat groups, they see someone that's radical, all they have to do is show up and like maybe you know inject a little money and and and push them right over the edge.
SPEAKER_04Yes, you know, use the psychology and say, okay, and then on your to say your point, how the CIA looks for certain characteristics. Jeffrey Dahmer, dude, didn't go down to the bar and talk about how he just ate and killed someone. Ted Gacy didn't do the same thing. You get that trait, they're gonna do crazy things and they don't care who knows about it. So you get enough of those people in there, you don't need a whistleblower.
SPEAKER_06So I guess what so what was the ultimate goal of of Cole Allen and to have devised probably the most retarded assassination plan in the history of assassination plans? It's retarded, but like so what is what was the goal? That's my question. Like maybe that if they're gonna if they're gonna force this guy to do something, wouldn't they want him to be successful in it?
SPEAKER_04But maybe that's the thing, is uh their only goal was to push him over the edge. That was the only goal of it, whether he killed Trump or not. And so these government employees, what is their goal from pushing people over the edge? Chaos? See if they can, yeah. Because all we see with more chaos throughout time is more government power comes out of chaos.
SPEAKER_06And who is directing these CIA agents? I'm just telling you, dude, like I just don't believe that I think that exists. There's no question about that. Yeah, but I'm just telling you, like, not everything has a string attached to everything. Possibly divide.
SPEAKER_03Divide would be a good good reason. Like we divide the people, like it's like you mother effers, you just try to kill the president that we did. We do that on our own. No, we do do it on our own, but it could like start keep fueling it back up, you know, keeping the that's not even needed, dude. Oh, it's a good thing.
SPEAKER_06Look at the Republican Party and like Erica Kirk, for example. Dude, the right has I in my experience, I've never seen the right more fractured. And it it starts with uh the Erica Kirk is one thing, you got the Jews, right? It's like, dude, there are um there's 20 different factions of conservatives right now. It's a complete disarray. And that was all done by a couple of people.
SPEAKER_03I I just want to make a point, or I just want to make a statement. I'm playing devil's advocate right now. I don't necessarily believe that's happening. I'm just saying I'm playing out, you know, I'm just playing out thoughts. Like it's like how it could happen or how that's fine. You know what I mean? That's how my brain thinks.
SPEAKER_06I just want people to know that so that they're like, oh my god, Daniel thinks, you know, my point is, dude, my I guess this is just me reiterating this, what I've said a thousand times, is every bad thing that happens turns into an elaborate conspiracy where people think there's, you know, I'm not saying all of this, not all some things probably do. Um there's no question about that. I mean, but not every single thing that happens, not every news story that comes out has a puppeteer behind it. It's not it, it's not that way.
SPEAKER_03The bad thing though, the the the thing that you have going against that statement is that like if you get my wife in here, she can like give me a checklist of things. I understand.
SPEAKER_06And I can go through that checklist, and I have done that with her, and I can debunk almost all of it. Really? All the time. I and that's why she doesn't send me stuff anymore. Get her on here. That's why she doesn't send me stuff anymore. Because I'm like, uh, well, come on, like let's let's use some common sense here. Like, you know, that what is this painting here? That did you guys see the painting?
SPEAKER_02There's this painting that if you the overlay the Trump like fight fights, so yeah, I was like, I didn't that's super viral.
SPEAKER_06People think it's real. It's like, hold on, dude. I'm looking at this. You look at the top right where the stripes are, you're like literally inserting red stripes. It's a this is you can believe anything, you could turn this picture into anything you want, but people think that that's a real thing, evidence of time travel. The painting is called time machine. It's like, dude, I can't. It's crazy that someone did that. I can't even do it anymore.
SPEAKER_03It's crazy someone did that, like overlay that on some random ass painting.
SPEAKER_06That's like you want to talk about someone doing that on purpose. I could see that on purpose. Absolutely. No, I mean, well, here's the thing, though. The reason why there's Donald Trump like fight, fight, fight.
SPEAKER_04See, he's holding the down there.
SPEAKER_06I go, dude, oh my gosh, dude, you were in on it.
SPEAKER_03I knew it the whole time. The conspiracy just got bigger. Oh my gosh, dude. I can't believe this. Oh, you can't see it.
SPEAKER_04Well, I can't believe this, dude. Can't move the camera.
SPEAKER_06Oh my gosh, the signs are everywhere, dude. I should have said there's a sign over there, a sign there. The signs are all around us, dude. I'm a schizophrenic nut job. That's what the internet is. It's a schizophrenic, insane zoo of people. And if you go down it too far, you you think everything is a conspiracy, and it's not. It just isn't.
SPEAKER_04No, it isn't. But all's my thing, my saying is is the government does more terrible things than they have done good. And for that reason, there's the pain of Donald Trump throwing his hand up in the air. And for that reason, I will never defend the government in saying that they're innocent in something like this.
SPEAKER_06I agree. I agree with you a thousand percent. I hate the government. I With the full word of hate. There's no efficient government. They steal our taxes. They waste our money. They feel nonsense. And they put money into things like this and they've proven that they have. Not saying it is, but I over time they have proven that this is in the MK Ultra doc. I'm just telling you, every time a frickin' an ant sneezes or takes a piss is not a elaborate government conspiracy. And I agree with you. And it has ruined the internet. It has ruined the internet. You can't go on here without seeing something insane.
SPEAKER_03No, I'm thinking I'm going to go to my home page right now, but is that not part of the plan? Like throwing all this, but this part of this mistrust and like not knowing what's what information. Yeah, I mean, that's part of the confusion of the smokescreen.
SPEAKER_04And I'm not saying that what do we got?
SPEAKER_06What do we got today?
SPEAKER_04It is, I'm not saying that it is officially a conspiracy, but I'm just saying throughout history, you can more times than not the government proves to deceive us in the moment.
SPEAKER_06I'm not denying that, dude. I'm not denying that. I'm just saying people waste their times on this stuff. Oh, yeah. Like, yeah, it's and it's and it has seeped into the real world. That's my point. Yeah. Like we know people that are obsessed with this stuff. And it's it's like, yeah, waste of time. What a waste of time.
SPEAKER_04No, I agree with you everywhere. I'm just saying, like, dude, it's it might be real. Like, it might be.
SPEAKER_03Here's the problem, Alex Jones. That guy's right a lot. He's a lot of stuff that he said that like back in the days, if you just take your step back a little bit, you're like, this dude's clearly a freaking net job, right? And now you fast forward it, you're like, oh my god, that was actually a thing.
SPEAKER_06But I do see there's a lot that he's got wrong too, but yeah, the 9-11 stuff and the the prediction of AI, yes, he's spot on with a lot of it. But I do agree with what you're saying because and this is he's also he's also anti what I'm saying too. Yeah, he's it's the same thing. It's like he's like, dude, you guys are being crazy. Right because now when everything's a conspiracy, you devalue real stories.
SPEAKER_03Yes, yes, yeah.
SPEAKER_06So and that's that's yeah, no, it's that's the beauty of it.
SPEAKER_04I think we gotta let the information, we gotta let more information come out before we do everything, but we never get told this whole story. But and that's some of the problem why these conspiracies do arise, is because like the is it the Butler, Pennsylvania court case? Is it completely sealed to the public? I don't think we even get to hear see any of the evidence that has been brought forth, which then fuels the conspiracies even more.
SPEAKER_06No, no, I agree, I agree, but he wasn't a time traveler. Oh no, absolutely not. That's what I'm talking about, dude. It's like the the simple explanation is probably there's a lot of information about that kid that leads back to his association with federal agents. There's it just like freaking uh what the GFK shooter. Like, I mean, there's a lot there, same thing.
SPEAKER_03Do you know why I said it's the beauty of it that they devalue the truth? Because then they can get away with shit and we just and we just kind of who's they I don't know, it could be anybody, it could be anything in the news, you know. I mean, it could be the truth, but it's easy to like the three letters. Let's just say, yeah, let's just say Epstein Island. Like, is it true or is it a complete lie, right? Like, I mean, we get to the point where we're just like, is this true? Is this a conspiracy? What's the truth? What what is the truth here? I I don't even know. I don't know what the truth is.
SPEAKER_04And with AI too, that's a tough thing. It's so easy to populate a fake image that looks right and every day it gets better and better. Today is the worst day AI will ever be.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Tomorrow, I it's tomorrow we gotta write.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I got you. I follow.
SPEAKER_06No, I agree. That's but my point is I feel like people should walk away from this nonsense. Yeah. And do be as informative as possible, obviously. But instead of sitting and going down the rabbit hole and thinking that, you know, uh, you know, the the walls have eyes and are are like manipulating you into going to shoot someone. Um go to church. That's it. That's literally the the only answer. That's there you go. That's that's it, man. Unplug and go to church. That's that is the answer. Yeah, that's it. And I want people to walk away from this this nonsense because, dude, online it's it's insane. It's a it's a loony bin. Well, dude, it is. And it is, I'll say it's more insane on the left from the the things that I've seen than on the right, but the right is pretty crazy too, dude. It's like it's out of control. The stuff I see is is I can't even go online hardly anymore.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, no, I agree with you there. And like you said, when it seeps into real life, people that we know where it is like, dude, we're here to golf.
SPEAKER_06You can't even you can't even talk to them anymore.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, we're here to golf, man. Like that's just golf. Like, no.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, no, that's all I got, dude.
SPEAKER_04Now I'm pissed. Let's go. I know, dude. Not pissed. Um, I have a very dis uh honest taste in my mouth of the government.
SPEAKER_06And dude, we're on the same page.
SPEAKER_02Uh we'll never trust them. We are all on the same page.
SPEAKER_06We're on the same page, but I just don't think Baron Trump's a time traveler. I just don't know. Baron Trump? Well, I don't think you've laugh at that. That's a conspiracy. Is it dude? There's a crazy coincidence, but take 10 minutes and go down it. Take go down the rabbit hole and enjoy. If you're gonna go for entertainment, enjoy. But if you're gonna believe it, sorry, man.
SPEAKER_03That's why I mean you you see me lately. I I try to stay away from it all. I'm gonna go. I think it's great. I think it's great. I can't uh I just can't do this. Like, I gotta concentrate on my family, I gotta try and concentrate on my relationship with God, and I gotta concentrate with the community. Like, that's kind of where I'm, you know, in my mind, I'm like, I gotta be here. Yeah, I gotta be here what I can control. Because there's so it's so out of control. It's so out of control. It's like trying to say, you know what, I'm gonna I'm gonna try to control the weather, which maybe they do.
SPEAKER_06But anyways, cloud sitting, dude. Uh but so okay, back to what we were saying earlier. What I was gonna say. Um what we were saying about people being the most unhappy in history, having access to the most things, the most abundance, the most information, and people being the most depressed of all time. The meme keeps going around. I keep seeing it, but maybe the Amish are onto something. Maybe the Amish focusing on things that matter, maybe that's the key to happiness. Maybe it isn't sitting doom scrolling on TikTok and you know, listening about the latest conspiracy theory from Stu Peters and Dude, I'd be happy as heck waking up. Jamar Hamlin, dude! Jamar Hamlin actually died. Didn't you guys know that? Dude, that was a conspiracy.
SPEAKER_04Waking up though, I was right, and not having to pay taxes would make my day every single day. So for that, I'd become Amish.
SPEAKER_06Yeah, there you go. All right, let's uh let's end the show. Do you guys got any parting words? And then uh we'll probably well, we might be back next week, or maybe not. We'll see. Depending on what you guys are doing next week.
SPEAKER_03I don't see why not. At some point we can record, it doesn't always have to be this day. I'm just saying, yeah. Like, I don't know about you guys. Obviously, for me, it doesn't have to be this day. But yeah, um, parting words, I don't know. I mean, just you know, for me personally, parting words, like, wish me luck. Wish me luck. Like, there's a lot of changes. Pray for me. Yeah, sincerely, pray for yeah, I'm dead, and I'm dead serious. Like, pray for me and my family right now. I'd appreciate any kind of prayers out there for and and for all of us, like as a group of guys here that we're you know, truly we're I want us to all communicate the right thing out there. We like to sit here and have fun and and you know, and and and talk about some fun things, and but we don't want to also create this uh chaotic uh message out there.
SPEAKER_06No, and that's what I hope that we are somewhat voice a reason and talk about this stuff with a more level head than than most commentators. I I know my goal certainly is not to clickbait and get rage bait clicks, like and I think that's what the Zeducation audience is, though. It's a bunch of like-minded people that aren't crazy, that aren't insane, you know, and uh I mean a lot of people that have come in that were are gone now because they don't like to hear what we have to say, but yeah, no, I hope that we're a voice of reason in in the in the chaos. So yeah, no, I would agree. Yeah, Dave, you got any part of words?
SPEAKER_04Uh dude, summer's here, time to touch grass. This is actually a really nice time of the year because being able to go out, dude, cut the grass. Like we went on two walks last week, you know, and I don't really get out in the winter time. I mean, so like I didn't mind, dude. Like, there's weeks that I might not leave the house. So there, like, there's months where I've only left two times. We gotta get you down south.
SPEAKER_03We gotta get you down south. Uh my part of words for you then is watch the ticks. Watch the ticks. Oh, dude. Dude, this old bastard.
SPEAKER_06He's like this old man living in a freaking 33-year-old body. I just barely got outside because it hurt my choice. So it's very nice to be on today.
SPEAKER_03The best part is he's like he's actually a very athletic guy. He's you're a very athletic guy. Hilariously. Like you have like natural talent. Hilariously, dude.
SPEAKER_04Like he was, he is. Yeah. I just hate winter. Like, literally, I I I mean, I'd rather pay taxes than live in the winter. I mean, that is that's saying something, dude. Like, dude, winter, I cannot do it. It was weird, though, because we grew up playing Hong Kong. Would you rather trust the official government narrative or live in winter? That's real tough, dude. That's really tough. It depends on. It depends on where the live out of the winter. I mean, going down to like Panama and I get to leave the government, then sure.
SPEAKER_03Oh, you're trying to hack the system now. Yeah, there's a loophole there.
SPEAKER_06All right, all right. Well, we'll be back, folks. Pray for us. That's all we got. Have a great week, folks. That's it for today's show. I'm Tyler Zed, and this is Education University.
