[00:00:06] Nikhil Mohan is killing our channel and we need to do more. Typekit.

Speaker1: [00:00:13] We're also bringing in some money, people from big conservative companies. Only 24 live reads. I didn't agree to that. Only only 24 live reads.

Speaker2: [00:00:48] You all know me. You all know how I earn a living. I'll catch this broad for you. But it ain't going to be easy. It's a bad bitch. Not like going down to social media and chasing down Jack Dorsey or Zuckerberg's. A. You gotta swallow your channels. Whole restrictions, denominations. And down you go. Now we got to do it quick. Got to bring back all your rightful subscribers and convert them to mug clubbers on a paying basis. But isn't that going to be pleasant? I value my channel a whole lot more than 3000 bucks, Chief. I'll find her for three, but I'll bring my half-Asian lawyer and sue her for ten. Now you got to make up your minds. You want to keep your channels alive and ante up. You want to play it cheap? You'll be listening to nonstop live raids and rhino talking points the whole winter. I don't want no go-fund-me. I don't want no Patreon. There are too many damn whiny conservatives on this platform. $10,000 for me and my half-Asian lawyer, Bill Richmond, by ourselves. For that, you get the head snatchers, the whole damn thing.

Speaker1: [00:02:11] Thank you very much. Rumble. Quint. We will take it under advisement.

Speaker2: [00:02:20] Mr. Mayor, Chief. Ladies and Zs.

Steven: [00:03:20] Oh, that is very nice. It's very nice. It's not too hot. Not too hot, Which, Yes, I forgot. I scalded my mouth the first few days this week. Hey, today is a special. We haven't done one of these in a while. A special live Czech live fact, Czech Stream live fact. Hold on a second. It's live fact. Czech Stream. I got the red tide, so bear with me. We have the Tik tok man, also a cocomelon stand in Mr. Choo. What's his name? Choo choo. Choo choo. Don't say it like that. Bless. You know, I just. I said it quickly. Show choo talking before. Is it a House committee? Yes. House committee today about Tik Tok. And of course, you know, we've been banned from Tik Tok for a very long time. Proudly so. And we think that Tik Tok should be banned from the United States because it's spyware. The biggest offender of Tik Tok remaining, of course, is one Eric Swalwell. So we'll get to that. So we'll be doing that live. So please, do you know, tune in here. We're going to go to it as it continues right now it's taking place. But before that, we have some other stories to get to. It's going to be talking about Canada. They have a big tourism issue that's going on right now. And it's a, you know, a fascist hellhole. Hillary Clinton is teaching a new class at Columbia. Ah, yes. Which is always funny. And I don't think we're going to be talking about the Tik tok. Mainly. Tik Tok is the stream today. But you know him. You love him in chair two. And tomorrow, by the way, tomorrow is the first time where you get to watch a Friday show. Gerald Morgan Junior, how are you?

Gerald: [00:04:45] I am doing well, sir. How are you?

Steven: [00:04:46] I'm doing well. Explain to people where they can tune in tomorrow to watch the Friday show, which is we're going.

Gerald: [00:04:51] To do on Mug Club. Right. So we might have the first like 15 minutes available if you happen to be watching on some stupid platform called YouTube. But if you're also watching on Rumble, you can watch the first 15, but go over to mug club. This is going to be one of those first things. You have some behind the scenes footage that we shot. And then also Bryan Callen and I did our first episode of Gerald Apologizes Apologetics. Yes. And so that's going to be a lot of fun. And by the way, that's not what it means. No, it's not what it means. I don't know who came up with title.

Steven: [00:05:13] It's very. So you do need to apologize for your mere presence here in the studio. And it is still free. It's all free this month. This month with creator.com/mug club. You don't need to enter in your credit card info any of that. You just sign up, create an account, and then afterwards, if you want to stick around, you can stick around. So my question to you as we go into this live fact check. There you go. Got it. Nice. See, Red tide ain't got nothing on me.

Gerald: [00:05:33] Well, not yet.

Steven: [00:05:34] Stream. I remember what I was going to say now. A lot of credit.com/mug club we'll be getting into this and of course he is here in third chair. He's going to be in Portland at Helium Comedy Club April 20th through the 22nd, I believe. And a lot of you don't know a man who loves his country, kind of I don't want to say out of the closet, but kind of. Bryan Callen. How are you, sir?

Brian Callen: [00:05:57] I'm just a man. Just a man. Happy to be here.

Steven: [00:06:00] Well, yeah, we didn't assume otherwise.

Brian Callen: [00:06:03] And these. These cans bring out my nose or what, guys? Huh? Oh, jeez.

Steven: [00:06:07] Come on. You got a nice Roman nose.

Brian Callen: [00:06:09] It's called an aquiline nose. Is that what it's called? That's what it's called. I don't believe that's what it's called. Socratic blood. Yes, of course.

Steven: [00:06:14] Let's do like the Romans do and kidnap seven brides so they can't scream. And their parents can't save them over the winter, and we'll force them to marry us. Look, it is me too. Wasn't wrong about everything. I know he's a little bit smaller than Alex Jones. Do we need to bring his microphone closer to him at all? Or is it. Are we good there? Yakuza? I think he sounds fine. I'll keep it. Okay. Another announcement.

Brian Callen: [00:06:32] I apologize for being so shredded.

Steven: [00:06:33] Nick DiPaolo.

Brian Callen: [00:06:34] Hey, let's not speak ill of the non third chair here right now. It smells like chem trails here.

Speaker2: [00:06:39] You should have heard.

Steven: [00:06:40] Our conversation with Alex Jones off air. So much fun. I was like, oh, my gosh.

Brian Callen: [00:06:44] I just you know.

Speaker2: [00:06:44] Sometimes it's really hard for me to get these things done, you know? And I'm like, Oh, Lord, I got to get out of Austin. I, you know, I started smoking a little bit, but I don't really smoke now. I don't know, maybe I need to go to rehab just for smoking. I have no idea. But you know which county has a conservative judge?

Brian Callen: [00:06:57] I'm just like.

Steven: [00:06:57] Alex, go home. All right.

Brian Callen: [00:06:59] His theories are amazing. I did drink some water, though, some tap water, and I ended up having sex with a guy. Yeah.

Steven: [00:07:07] I got.

Brian Callen: [00:07:07] That frog. I found a frog in the water. So I think that's. That's an excuse. And it's only gay if you're smiling, Brian.

Gerald: [00:07:13] He doesn't have that as a theory. Yeah, it's just something you did.

Brian Callen: [00:07:17] It's a proven scientific fact. I'm just trying to tell you what Alex Jones said was okay. Yes, he was correct. You can have sex with a guy as long as you drink the right or the wrong water. Yeah, carbon filter. You can get that at Infowars. Infowars, shop.com. Sure. If you want to be as long as you put in some oil of oregano and colloidal silver. Okay, you will not become a demonic gay frog.

Steven: [00:07:36] All right. Nick DePaula, by the way, his show is coming to Mug Club, April 10th, 5 p.m. Look at Nick. Many of you were asking for the announcement. When? Like. So he's coming April 10th. You'll be getting that show four times a week. Yeah. And we'll be making the announcements regarding Mr. Gunzinger. Yep. The comedy specials that we have not only with Callan, not only with Brewer, but also other weekly and daily shows. Oh, by the way, if you're.

Gerald: [00:07:56] Somebody who is following Nick DePaula right now, if you're on his Patreon, make sure we're going to have a page for him so that you can sign up under his portal. We'll have that ready to go. We'll make sure that we get that out to you and Nick's team will get that.

Steven: [00:08:06] Out to you. This is eight minutes of announcements. Let's move on. All right. Sunday morning, before we get to everything else, there was a potential mass shooting. I don't know if you heard about this good guy with a gun. Quick fact. By the way, when people argue with you about how many if it saves one life. Okay. Fine. So you're talking about tens of thousands, always under 30,000 when you talk about homicides, Right. If you include suicides, gun deaths in this country on the high end, 40 something thousand on the low end, 30 something thousand. When you're talking about homicides, it's about 15,000 anywhere to 20 something thousand on a really, really busy year, over 2 million defensive uses of firearms every single year. It's done. If it saves one life. Okay, Well, we save, give or take 2 million. So this is another example of not exactly, but kind of it's more entertaining Sunday morning. A potential mass shooter would be mass shooter, I guess I should say, would be was stopped by a bouncer outside of the strip, a strip club in Tampa. Let's watch. So here we go. You can just play some music here. This is. Well, no, that's the. That's the first guy who goes in, I guess Vader, mankind, going in with a gun to a strip club. Now, look at this guy. Takes his gun. Wow. Stops him. Yep. Boom. Takes it out. Get the gun. Shoot. Vader doesn't know what to do. The guy still have the gun. He still has the gun. No, it's on the ground. Oh, he's right there. He. He doesn't have the gun. I mean to say he should have shoot. He should shoot him right now. I agree with you.

Brian Callen: [00:09:22] Right when the guy's pants are down, but he.

Steven: [00:09:25] Pistol whips him. Okay. Which is a pimp move. Yep. Wow. Oh. Yep.

Speaker6: [00:09:30] Pistol whip with your pants down. There it.

Brian Callen: [00:09:31] Is. This is what you get for dropping out of law school.

Steven: [00:09:34] Yep, Exactly. That man must really hate strippers. I'll tell you what. I had no idea that Mick Foley was that anti strip.

Gerald: [00:09:41] You see the guy in the gray sweater run out and he literally takes time to roll up his sleeves before jumping.

Steven: [00:09:47] It's a guy can have a gun. What are you doing? Hey, hey. That's the guy who understands being present. He's that. He's like, ha ha ha ha ha. He's like, Should I jump in action? No, wait. I'm going to look back on this moment.

Brian Callen: [00:09:59] Better than better than taking time to put gloves on. That would be, well, gangster. As long as you hold him still for a second. Gentlemen, I don't want to get any germs on my hands.

Steven: [00:10:06] Oh, I have to do the Timothy Olyphant hit man. Yeah.

Brian Callen: [00:10:09] I don't want to get crazy juice on my fingers.

Steven: [00:10:11] Here's the funny part. I shouldn't say funny part. Here's the even better part. The hero. There was actually also a 55 year old ex pro wrestler Manuel Manuel Manny Resto, who was once called the Puerto Rican Punisher. That's the guy That's the that's the guy who beat up. Yeah. And he thought watched the interview with this guy. Didn't need a mask. This man's a hero.

Speaker7: [00:10:31] Yeah, I was a professional wrestler, MMA guy. I know a lot of big guys. I've worked security for 30 years. I know a lot of bouncers. I thought it was one of my friends playing a trick on me. So I was like. So I was kind of smiling while it was approaching. He was approaching. He was he approached slow, measured steps and he didn't say a word. And I was waiting for the punch line.

Steven: [00:10:53] Well, you delivered it.

Speaker7: [00:10:54] Then all of a sudden he came right up to me and he was a very big man. Very big. I was like, okay. Then he walked beside me. I guess he thought I didn't work there or I wasn't a threat or whatever. So he was right beside me. I was to the left. He he was to the right. I saw him raise his hand and he had a gun.

Steven: [00:11:19] We don't so much care if he were to his left and right like we know our left and right. At this point. We just want to know that you put him in a shallow grave and, hey, good for you. That's right.

Gerald: [00:11:26] But yeah, absolutely. What kind of friends does this guy have, by the way? He's like, Yeah, I thought it was just one of my buddies.

Steven: [00:11:30] Yeah. Oh, yeah. The old. The old Bring a loaded firearm into a strip club trick.

Brian Callen: [00:11:34] Yeah. It took a long time to describe that. That's. That's slow processing. I thought He's got a gun, a flashlight. He's very big. Yes.

Steven: [00:11:41] Is this a mass shooting or is just this just the old bring a semi-automatic handgun? Right. He's got into the strip club bit.

Brian Callen: [00:11:48] He's got he's got darkness and and kill tattooed to his to his arms. Yeah, exactly. I don't want to look. Are those henna tattoos? If they're henna tattoos, it's safe.

Steven: [00:11:56] Yes. I thought it might be some kind of a fraternity hazing until I realized that he had soulless eyes. And that's when I decided I needed to do something. So I promptly beat the hell out of him.

Brian Callen: [00:12:06] It looks like brown warm cheese. Yes. I'm just saying, guys, not that fat shame. But seriously.

Steven: [00:12:12] And by the way, speaking of Brown and Puerto Rican, our agent, Gay William, is going to be on the show later today because he has thoughts on Puerto Ricans. Yeah. So and if you see this take place during the show, if you are watching on YouTube, head on over to Rumble because on YouTube, you may see and hear this at some point in the program. Yeah. There you go. All right, let's get the tricaster a little bit. There you go. That means that it's not available on YouTube. But if you go over to Rumble, you can see exactly what we're talking about at that moment in time, because we're not going to self-censor to say whatever you want. Brian, Don't worry about it. Thank you, buddy. So let's move on here before we get to the tick tock live stream and fact checking it, which is going to be I'm sure there's a lot to get into Canada, my home. It's a silly place. It's a stupid place. They're getting in hot water right now. And we'll then tell you why this matters to you, because I know you're thinking, does this matter? It's a slow news day. But stay with us. Regina Saskatchewan is facing criticism over a new tourism campaign. And did we got the new clip right? The extended clip. Yeah. So see if you can guess why.

[00:13:18] Nope. Dale. Dale.

Speaker6: [00:13:25] Oh, sorry. That was. That was wrong.

Gerald: [00:13:27] Okay, I was confused.

Steven: [00:13:28] Let's bring in the Regina, Saskatchewan tourism clip, see if you can guess why it's a problem. Terrible.

Speaker8: [00:13:34] That's what I think. Terrible publicity.

Speaker1: [00:13:37] That's not exactly.

Speaker9: [00:13:38] A ringing endorsement and not what you want to hear if you've just launched a new campaign to promote tourism in Regina. Last week, Tourism Regina rebranded itself as Experience Regina through a rendition of an old viral video, but its attempt at a new name was quickly forgotten when it launched. Using slogans like Show Us Your Regina and the city that rhymes with fun. See.

Steven: [00:14:09] This is why you don't trust experts, because that went through an entire panel. People sat down. They they brainstormed, they workshopped, and then someone said, How about show us your Regina? I'm good. Are we good? Yeah. Meeting adjourned. Yep. No one had the forethought to say. Wait.

Brian Callen: [00:14:27] Well, also, yeah. The fact that Regina is pussy in French. Yeah, right, right. So that's the other problem. They have a lot of different. I mean, I've been to that town. Have you? Yeah, it's. It's. It's a warm, tight knit community.

Steven: [00:14:44] Yeah, it is. It's a tight knit community.

Brian Callen: [00:14:45] It rains a lot. Yeah, but.

Steven: [00:14:47] I don't know why. It seems like they're always. I get the sense they're always like, cooking. Like steaming mussels.

Brian Callen: [00:14:52] That's. It certainly smells that way. Here's the thing. If you go an inch south on the map, there's the town of Anna's. Yes. Yes. As you know, Latin for, of course, butthole. Yeah.

Steven: [00:15:02] So Latin. Yes. Yeah. These are the these are the romance languages, which is obviously very fitting. And don't forget, of course, their sister city in Europe, Frenulum.

Brian Callen: [00:15:13] Dolores, this is this is not like you're being immature now that now you're.

Steven: [00:15:19] Come in. Regina, Just. Just say, like, Regina is a good city, You know what I mean? Like, hey, I like Regina. Well, it's almost like it's impossible to get around. Regina. I like Regina.

Gerald: [00:15:30] What happens here.

Steven: [00:15:31] Stays. I heart. Regina. Regina.

Speaker10: [00:15:34] Regina.

Gerald: [00:15:36] It's hard to miss.

Brian Callen: [00:15:37] Regina. Regina.

Steven: [00:15:38] I was in Regina, and all I got was this stupid clap. I don't know, like, there's no good. I guess it's really. It's the city's fault.

Brian Callen: [00:15:44] It was the antibiotics that don't work. Yes, exactly. And it was worth it.

Steven: [00:15:49] So here's the issue. It's silly. It should be fun. But Talitha McCloskey from the women's group raise her. And I know what you're thinking. Hey, I must hate that group, even though I don't know what it is. Correct. They were critical of the campaign and said the objectification of vaginas is not okay. Generally, I would agree with you, but in this case you need to leave. Right?

Brian Callen: [00:16:12] Because she doesn't know how to spell vagina. Right?

Steven: [00:16:14] Exactly. And she also doesn't this is a city, right? This is a city. It's the city of Regina. Regina. Yeah, it's the city of Regina.

Brian Callen: [00:16:21] Is neighbor close to plus.

Steven: [00:16:23] Yeah, well, you know what I also hate, though, too, is the city. The city keeps going through problems because it wasn't Regina. It was. It was a different city before. And they have to dilate it for two hours every day with a medical device.

Brian Callen: [00:16:34] I have to look that up. Fact check, please. Fact check. Fact check.

Steven: [00:16:37] Fact check. Just watch. I am Jazz. It'll be all you need to know. And this is the thing. If this is in related news, as someone else who you can't stand, stay with me for a second here. Gwyneth Paltrow. I know you threw up in your mouth a little bit. She just appeared in court this week in more proof that elitists don't believe the rules apply to them because she skied into somebody causing irreparable harm. Gwyneth Paltrow rushes into court wearing dark sunglasses and a long coat with security by her side.

Speaker11: [00:17:04] Are you comforting Gwyneth? Are you going to win this case?

Speaker7: [00:17:06] Moments later, the.

Steven: [00:17:07] Oscar winner turned wellness guru walked.

Speaker12: [00:17:09] Into the courtroom in a cream turtleneck, sweater and brown pants. Paltrow is facing Teri Sanderson, a 76 year old retired optometrist who claims she plowed into him on a ski slope, leaving him with four broken ribs and permanent brain damage. Well, this happens.

Steven: [00:17:24] In Regina, you plow. Oh, And in Paltrow's defense, her attorney said that actually the client, his client, Gwyneth Paltrow, is innocent. And it was actually Sanderson that crashed into her. And here's the thing. It may be true considering that there does seem to be motive. He he has a bill of receipt, or at least it was discovered that he received the wrong scented candle from Gwyneth Paltrow's candle company. And so he could be upset. Okay.

Brian Callen: [00:17:51] Wow. Was he wearing the candle?

Steven: [00:17:53] He wasn't wearing the candle, but it's like it's like smelling salts. I see. He was in the chalet. He smelled it. He was like, I.

Brian Callen: [00:17:59] Got to kill this bitch because she has you can wear a she has a jade egg, which apparently is good for your Yoni. She's she's got one. I'm just. It's good for Saskatchewan. No, but her Regina you can wear it in your Regina. Yes, exactly. I think.

Steven: [00:18:13] And you can light it on fire. You know what? That's what. What's the name of this group?

Brian Callen: [00:18:16] Doesn't carry smells. The group.

Steven: [00:18:18] Is. What is it? Raise her. That's what you should be upset about. Not. Hey, come to Regina or Regina's or fun or show us your Regina. You should be mad about it if you're saying objectifying women's nether regions, how about lighting it ablaze?

Brian Callen: [00:18:31] I'm with you. Wouldn't that. That's where I draw the line. Yeah. Lighting. Lighting your Regina ablaze. Yeah.

Steven: [00:18:36] That seems like it's sending the wrong message. I agree with you. With Gwyneth.

Brian Callen: [00:18:39] Paltrow. She's a very. She has 800 calories a day. Roughly. Apparently. Really? Very thin woman. It's like getting hit. By a wooden chair. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That can cause all kinds of problems. No bruising.

Steven: [00:18:51] I understand. It seems like she's starving her soul because she's all points.

Brian Callen: [00:18:54] She's all points. She's the worst human being alive.

Steven: [00:18:56] Don't. Don't worry.

Gerald: [00:18:57] The reporters are on it. They're describing her wardrobe as she walks in. That's like the most. She's got a cream sweater and a brown skirt.

Steven: [00:19:05] Gwyneth Paltrow wearing a cream sweater, brown skirt and having soulless, lifeless eyes like a doll's eyes showed up and claims she was the victim. This is the lady who, in fact, does sell candles scented like her Punanny. So you know what? Your guess is as good as ours. But we're going to phone in guilty. Right.

Brian Callen: [00:19:24] And she's covered in goop. Yes. Yes. It's Goop, the name of her company.

Steven: [00:19:28] Well, that's that's the name of the ski hill in Regina.

Brian Callen: [00:19:32] Oh, no. Speaking of antibiotics. Yes. Itches and burns. Yeah.

Steven: [00:19:37] It's just like those firefighters who drop the water on the forest burns. They just drop what, The clap?

Brian Callen: [00:19:42] Antibiotics. All you need is to eat a lot of garlic. Apparently.

Steven: [00:19:45] Yes.

Brian Callen: [00:19:45] And love. And read your Bible.

Steven: [00:19:47] All you need is love. So let's go to this. Speaking of love, because we need to fill up with love because now we're about to get to something that we hate. And I know it's wrong to hate. Mm. Let me know. Do you ever feel that in you like, hate when there are certain people who bring it out of me? Hillary Clinton is one of them. Yes. So and by the way, this is a live show Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m. Eastern. That's the well, actually Monday through Friday, now 10 a.m. Eastern. Just go to Loudmouth crowder.com/mug club. Don't do the social media passive scrolling like look tune in, watch, check the references we make available and then move on with your day, which we'll be talking about with Tick Tock. It's harming children's brains. There is an actual there's an entire organization. There's actually there are many different scientific groups now. There are meta analysis that have been conducted and social media particularly tick tock these devices and of course the platforms on these devices that encourage five second views, five second views and passive consumption of content not only harms your brain, this may be the first generation that has a lower IQ than the previous generation. So we'll get into that in a second and see what Mr. Chu says before the House committee. My guess is he lies. But speaking of educated guesses here, Hillary Clinton, she's now teaching a class at Columbia and they announced it with this. I'm trying to think of how to describe it. Have you ever, like, you ever had like palpable lack of self awareness? That's this video.

Speaker13: [00:21:03] Oh, my God. What is it? It's Hillary Clinton. She's running.

Steven: [00:21:07] What weight is she teaching at Columbia University or in Columbia? Running again. I know. I heard. That's so.

Speaker14: [00:21:12] Crazy. This is wild. She's running a Hallmark movie.

Speaker15: [00:21:18] Here I am. Sorry. You're running again.

Speaker16: [00:21:21] Well, I sure am. I just got here early for the new class we're teaching together on foreign policy decision making.

Speaker13: [00:21:28] Classes don't start until September. How to not have sex with Bill Clinton.

Speaker16: [00:21:31] Be prepared, Karen. You know, when it comes to crisis situations, you've always got to be prepared.

Speaker15: [00:21:36] Prepared? I think you're more prepared than anyone to teach this course. Now, what are we going to call it.

Speaker16: [00:21:43] Inside the Situation Room? You mean your barren womb?

Speaker15: [00:21:46] And I'll cover the theory of political decision making and strategy, and.

Speaker16: [00:21:50] I'll cover what it was actually like in the room during the bin Laden raid. The Iran sanctions. The Gaza cease fire. She wasn't there. Okay.

Speaker15: [00:21:58] But are you ready for whatever questions the students throw at you?

Speaker16: [00:22:02] Bring it on. Now, if you'll excuse me, Karen, I've got to run.

Steven: [00:22:06] Yeah. Run is a very generous term for Hillary Clinton. I got to run.

Speaker6: [00:22:10] I got the runs.

Steven: [00:22:13] It's a complete waddle. It's a side to side shift.

Brian Callen: [00:22:17] It's like she's on strings. Yes. Moving those. Those feet.

Speaker17: [00:22:21] I got these strings to hold.

Brian Callen: [00:22:22] All you have to do is. Apparently, she teaches you what it's like to be a. She wants to get more women in foreign policy. So you just have to get into Columbia and spend $400,000 on an education. And in four years, you can encourage and support the women of Afghanistan and Benghazi.

Steven: [00:22:39] Yes, exactly. And of course, not have sex with Bill Clinton. Be the only person in the sorority who doesn't have sex with him.

Brian Callen: [00:22:44] And in the White House. Yes.

Steven: [00:22:45] And in the White House, the entire West Wing, really? You could cover the entire state. And by the way, Columbia University, the president had this to say about Hillary, given her extraordinary talents and capacities, together with her singular life experiences. Hillary Clinton is unique and most importantly, exceptional in what she can bring to the university's missions of research and teaching. So, look, here's the real issue that bothers me here. We always talk about girls needing strong role models, and there are some very strong role models out there, by the way. But when you say Hillary Clinton is a good role model for young women, you're encouraging them to be vapid, gold digging whores. Yes.

Brian Callen: [00:23:24] But with a law degree? Yes. Can I just say that respectfully? Yes.

Steven: [00:23:27] Yes. What's a law degree? And, you know, by the way, Mug Club is free.com/mug club. Here are a few. Let me prove to you all month why Hillary Clinton. I know you're thinking that's conjecture. No, no, no. Hillary is completely unqualified for any of her jobs, ever. She was the architect, by the way, in case you don't know this, and removing Gadhafi from power. And here she is, by the way, celebrating. And just so you know, I get that a lot of people. Gadhafi bad guy, right? Yeah. Yeah. But she did throw the kind of like toss them amidst a civil war.

Gerald: [00:23:57] It didn't have a plan after. So just like get rid of that guy. But we don't know what the.

Steven: [00:24:00] Hell to do. And the why matters because the only reason she wanted to kill Gadhafi was because she thought it was a photo negative of Jeff Ross. Oh, well, that's so. Here she is celebrating his death in 2011.

Speaker18: [00:24:13] What was the land of unconfirmed?

Speaker16: [00:24:15] Yes. We came we saw he died.

Speaker18: [00:24:20] Did it have anything to do with your visit? I'm sure it did.

Steven: [00:24:24] Jesus. Yeah. It seems like you might want to be briefed on that.

Brian Callen: [00:24:27] I was gonna say. But then there were open air slave markets in Libya. I don't know if you guys know that. Oh, yeah, I just want to speak for the latter. With Crowder. No, we're anti slavery. Yes. Generally speaking, unless it's slavery, sexual and voluntary. Yeah, right, exactly. Everyone. Yeah.

Steven: [00:24:43] Slavery was.

Gerald: [00:24:43] Okay. No, it was not. Yeah.

Brian Callen: [00:24:46] No, no, no. I'm context matters.

Steven: [00:24:48] No, I mean, it's indentured servitude. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like in Dubai where, you know, all the wealthy go to play.

Gerald: [00:24:54] But don't worry. Nine years of civil war. It's okay. Yeah. No, just nine years.

Steven: [00:24:57] So when you're telling young women she's qualified to teach again, here's my here's a genuine question. Comment below. Let's say you are not a conservative. You are not. Okay, What are Hillary's greatest qualifications? What has she actually accomplished aside from not sleeping with Bill Clinton? And I mean that. What has she done where she has been? Because she's very successful when it comes to not banging Bill Clinton. She's tops no one's higher on the totem pole or not on the totem pole like Hillary Clinton. Outside of that, I am at a loss. I want you to tell me let me give you another reason. Again, I don't think young girls should be looking up to Hillary Clinton. Here's reason number two for Hillary Clinton would be Benghazi, obviously. Right? She obstructed an order from the commander in chief to lead the rescue mission. People are saying, oh, you're playing politics. You have the Sam Harris's of the world like you're just playing politics. In retrospect. No, no, no, no, no. Lives could have been saved. Just to be clear as to the severity of Benghazi. And she opted to not. So here's a direct quote from the Hill. The delay in launching a rescue mission was not due to the, quote, tyranny of time and distance. Rather, it was the total failure of secretary of state that was Hillary Clinton most of you probably didn't know to lead even after receiving the news. And of course, that resulted in the death. Yet Chris Stevens, you know, information officer Sean Smith special operators I was a. Glen. Glen Doherty And was it? Was it Tyrone Woods? Yeah. Yeah. I'm not good with names, but they're okay. Not to be glib. A lot of people died because of Hillary Clinton, and that's kind of a demerit when you're talking about being secretary of state.

Gerald: [00:26:26] That's right. Well, absolutely. One of the things, too, you know, remember, if you ever watched the movie 13 Hours, the guys at the end that show up and actually help people, they're not the people that we helped get free from Gadhafi. They were Gadhafi loyalists. Right. So the people that we helped were like, yeah, we got better things to do. It's a Friday night. We're partying. Then Gadhafi I never saw.

Steven: [00:26:42] The problem is I was trying to watch 13 hours and I accidentally rented 13 ghosts.

Speaker10: [00:26:46] Oh, that's.

Steven: [00:26:48] I don't recommend it. Yeah. No. And then I thought that I was watching Ghost from Mars or that film was. I never saw it. And then I realized I was watching 13 Ghosts. So of those three films, I had definitively the worst one. Yeah, but I had paid for it, right?

Brian Callen: [00:27:01] The sequel?

Speaker10: [00:27:02] Yeah.

Brian Callen: [00:27:03] 14 Ghosts.

Steven: [00:27:04] Yes, exactly. Which is one more. It's worse.

Brian Callen: [00:27:07] Yeah. This just in, though. Just like the sequel.

Steven: [00:27:09] To Event Horizon, I don't know if you ever saw Event Sunset. No, I.

Brian Callen: [00:27:12] Did not see Event Sunset, but I. But I lived it. Now listen this just in Hillary Clinton's class also offers sort of an offshoot where you learn how to delete emails.

Steven: [00:27:24] Yeah, she's good at that.

Gerald: [00:27:26] Bleaching servers.

Steven: [00:27:27] Yes, that's helpful. She is very good. And here's the thing, too, just so you know, there's a lot of conjecture, people saying, well, okay, she deleted emails and I get it. People play political football. Maybe there were classified emails there. Maybe it was a violation of, you know, national security intelligence. I just think she was trying to hide her lesbian emails with humor. She is a lesbian. That's 100% fact. Take it to the bank. And she hit the YouTube dump button because I just I had to get it out. And we'll get that on Rumble.

Gerald: [00:27:52] She loves Regina. Yeah. Let's just say she is a frequent visitor to Regina.

Steven: [00:27:57] She left her Regina in Regina.

Speaker19: [00:28:02] Usually it's your round muncher.

Steven: [00:28:07] That's right. This is your first time. Yakuza is the best with the sound board I've ever seen.

Brian Callen: [00:28:09] I was going to say, this is where I draw the line. Rug muncher. I'm so horny right now. Oh, stop it.

Steven: [00:28:14] The good thing about the YouTube dump button, you can say whatever you want. Okay, But free country.

Gerald: [00:28:18] I really hope it's big hit. Yeah.

Speaker6: [00:28:21] It's still on.

Speaker10: [00:28:22] It's still on. They're doing it. I'm just like. I'm still.

Steven: [00:28:26] Dumping. Here's something else again. Think about this. Raise her. Is that what it was? Raise her. Protect her? Is that what it was?

Speaker10: [00:28:32] Raise her. By the way, this is also a thing, too. Everything is sexist. Hell raiser. I know. You know now is a woman.

Steven: [00:28:38] It's like hell raiser is a demonic androgynous. The whole point is that it doesn't have they're like, you know what?

Speaker10: [00:28:44] We feel that women are.

Steven: [00:28:45] Underrepresented in.

Speaker10: [00:28:47] Torturous demonic.

Steven: [00:28:48] Soul things. So we need a woman hell raiser.

Gerald: [00:28:51] We can be demonic and bitchy, too.

Speaker10: [00:28:52] Yeah, exactly right. It changed from I have such sights to show you, too. What do you think of this? Right?

Steven: [00:28:58] What did you tell your friend?

Speaker10: [00:29:00] Because that's not what I heard. Look at her dress. Yeah, look at her dress. Is that what you want? Do you want me to be like that bitch? No answer. It's fine. I'm fine. Yes, it's fine. I'm fine. I need to meet her. I want to go to Regina. Yeah. Raise your. Your vagina. Yes. Regina. By the way, here's.

Steven: [00:29:22] The number one reason. While we're talking about the. It's the hypocrisy. And by the way, it's not that people are hypocrites. I've talked about this like when COVID happened and Nancy Pelosi went and she went to the particle vortex to get her hair blown out. It's not the hypocrisy. Everyone is a hypocrite. Every person in this room is a hypocrite. Certainly if you have a set of beliefs, if you're a Christian, I've talked about this, of course you are a hypocrite. That's not an argument. The issue is not the hypocrisy. It's that they don't believe it. You can believe something. For example, you can believe that drinking too much is bad and being alcoholic, you can believe genuinely that pornography is bad. And as a man still go, Oh, there's another naked lady and you're tempted by it. The issue is they don't believe in the idea of patriarchy and sexism and that women are oppressed, or the idea that asking questions or maybe perhaps being skeptical of the rape statistics that they try and give you are are they are a byproduct of a patriarchal society? They don't believe it because they don't apply it consistently. That's the problem. Don't say hypocrisy. Look at their actions and say, hold on a second. Do they believe it because they accuse the right of constantly being victim blamers Is.

Speaker10: [00:30:24] There any greater.

Steven: [00:30:25] Victim blamer throughout history than Hillary Clinton? She called Gennifer Flowers trailer trash. She of course, she was out there just tarring and feathering Monica Lewinsky, who, by the way, was in love with her husband, which makes one of them. The point is that was an abuse of authority. And people always say, oh.

Speaker10: [00:30:42] So he slept with a few.

Speaker12: [00:30:43] People. No, Bill Clinton didn't just sleep with Bill Clinton.

Steven: [00:30:45] Would he sexually?

Speaker10: [00:30:46] He tried. He had sex with women who weren't even willing. That's the issue.

Steven: [00:30:49] There. And she never once came out. She she just decided that, hey, he's my husband. We're going to stay together. No, no, it's not that he cheated on you once.

Speaker10: [00:30:55] I get that, it's that he's a rapist.

Steven: [00:30:58] You're a strong woman, and you stand by a rapist.

Speaker10: [00:31:02] Did you know that comment below?

Steven: [00:31:03] Did you know that Bill Clinton was a rapist?

Speaker10: [00:31:08] Yeah. He murdered a guy. Oh. I was going to try to do it.

Gerald: [00:31:14] But I'm glad he had that because that's better than me doing it. Yeah. Yeah.

Steven: [00:31:17] I don't know. No. We good? You have anything else to add there?

Brian Callen: [00:31:20] Okay. I think none of us were in the Situation Room.

Gerald: [00:31:23] I don't want to end up accidentally dying in a way that's physically impossible to die with cameras turning off. That should have been on. I just want to be careful. Yeah, is what I'm saying.

Steven: [00:31:31] And we'll. We'll check in with Finnegan later with the the CLG that's coming into the coming into the the shores.

Speaker10: [00:31:37] Oh yeah.

Steven: [00:31:38] So we'll check in with that later guys or you can just move that to later in the show about let Finnegan know that he's a sort of sitting there and I'll have to wait. All right, so let's talk about TikTok. Let's set this up for you. And then we're going to go live to the hearing that's taking place. So we'll probably head on over to C-SPAN after this. Yeah, there's a big fight taking place over TikTok in Washington where some people well, this brings us to I guess we have to trash TikTok. Oh.

Speaker10: [00:32:07] Oh. That's brilliant.

Steven: [00:32:11] I'm so grateful for Rumble.

Brian Callen: [00:32:13] I was going to say that. Oh, sounded a little bit racist. And that's fine. It it's the sound I make when I kick somebody. But still, no.

Steven: [00:32:19] He was saying so.

Brian Callen: [00:32:20] True. Okay. Bless you.

Speaker10: [00:32:24] Bless you.

Steven: [00:32:26] I would say it never gets.

Speaker10: [00:32:27] Old, but it does. So the Tik Tok CEO.

Steven: [00:32:31] Choo Choo is currently going to be testifying in front of a I think it's congressional committee. It's always hard to keep track. You're not going to have the big names today. So this is like, you know, this is like before the big boss. It's like in Bloodsport where it's not the guy who flexes his pecs, but it's the guy who kind of looks like Mick Foley testifying right now before Congress because lawmakers are calling to ban the app of Tik Tok. Now, before I get to the clips here, I want to set this up for you. This is going to be the first generation of people, very likely based on the science that we have, that is going to have a lower IQ than the previous generation. Now, let me explain to you why that likely is, and we'll give you the science and we make all references publicly available. Tik Tok is a big part of it. I don't think that people are necessarily dumber. I think it's that their working memory. Right, Your short term memory is not nearly as efficient as it used to be because you're constantly bombarded with content. It's passive consumption of content and we know what that does with the brain. We know how it rewires the brain. When you combine that with trans indoctrination and of course Chinese propaganda, you end up with an even greater problem than just your Aunt Tilly sending you a picture of a prairie dogs balls on Facebook, which, by the way, no one used to do physically. So I have I have my qualms with Facebook, But TikTok is worse.

Speaker10: [00:33:40] Grandma. Yes. Oh, my.

Steven: [00:33:43] Gosh. My my grandmother, you know, God bless her soul before she passed. But, you know, it was there was the silver lining is that she didn't go to her forwarding office. She had a forwarding office like this is where I go two hours a day to my forwarding office. She would forward.

Speaker10: [00:33:56] Emails. Oh, my.

Steven: [00:33:56] Gosh. I would get like 16 a day, which wouldn't be a problem because she'd be.

Speaker10: [00:33:59] Like, Why didn't you.

Steven: [00:34:00] Respond? I'm like, Because you sent it from your forwarding office. I don't have a forwarding office. I have a job. What is it with old.

Speaker10: [00:34:07] People and forwarding naked.

Gerald: [00:34:08] Grandma? No.

Steven: [00:34:10] So in the lead up to the hearing show, Chu released this video defending Tick Tock.

Speaker1: [00:34:17] Hi everyone. It's Chau here. I'm the CEO of TikTok. I'm here in Washington, DC today and I have some news and updates to share with everyone here today. I'm super excited to announce that more than 150 million Americans are on Tick tock. That's almost half of the US coming to tick tock to connect, to create, to share, to learn or just to have some fun. This includes 5 million businesses that use tick tock to reach the customers, and the majority of these are small and medium businesses. Some have started talking about banning TikTok. I think you mean.

Steven: [00:34:51] To say in China, small.

Speaker1: [00:34:52] Business owners, all 150 million of you. I'll be testifying before Congress later this week to share all that we're doing to protect Americans using the app and deliver on our mission to inspire creativity and to bring joy. And by the way, part.

Steven: [00:35:06] Of the reason we were late is he was late today because he was too busy taping another Cocomelon segment. So he was yeah, he had a lot going on.

Brian Callen: [00:35:12] I think that's unfair. And I find that video offensive because that's actually Gwyneth Paltrow with a China doll mask. Is it on And that's what yeah. And I have that on good authority but I do trust him.

Steven: [00:35:22] Yeah there's also the candle. It smells like sewer food.

Brian Callen: [00:35:25] But the egg doesn't pick up. No, the egg. Because it's made of jade. Yes, exactly. Once again, get your jade egg. And they moved.

Steven: [00:35:32] Their manufacturing to Regina.

Gerald: [00:35:34] What do you want to do? You want to go to it? Let me go really quick.

Steven: [00:35:36] By the way, hit the like button. Comment on YouTube really quickly. Smash the rumble button, head on over to Rumble. We're going to have a lot that we are not going to be getting into on YouTube. And just to be clear before we move on here, this is a perfect example of and I want to go to what we have live. If we miss something, let us know. But. They expect the United States and by they I mean the rest of the world. And I was raised in Canada because this happens, right? They expect the United States to to to foot the bill for everybody else. Ukraine. Hey, how about you all step in NATO? How about your neighbors do it? How about, hey, Europe, how about you do it? And why do we need to spend 100 something billion dollars or commit 100 something billion dollars before people want to admonish me? I get we've committed, but we haven't spent all of it. Okay, Hold your comments. They want us to foot the bill there for the security of the world. And they want to blame the United States for standards that we apply, which they apply far more stringently themselves. To give you an example, tick is not it's not banned in the States yet. You know where it is banned.

Speaker10: [00:36:30] China, China.

Brian Callen: [00:36:32] China.

Speaker10: [00:36:32] China. I had no idea.

Steven: [00:36:34] It's not allowed in China for different reasons because all the trans, you know, infiltration that happens there where people want you to text them on TikTok, slide into their DMS so your parents don't know and they can encourage you to transition.

Speaker10: [00:36:44] They believe that'll poison the.

Steven: [00:36:45] Minds of the youth in China or as they call them, youth.

Speaker10: [00:36:50] So they don't allow it in China.

Steven: [00:36:52] But now they want to lobby the United States to allow it because they know the irreparable damage that it can do to young people. And by the way, yep, I am more of a libertarian, but one of the few legitimate roles of government, to be clear. And this is something that you can use when people say, Oh, so you're a conservative.

Speaker10: [00:37:05] What about.

Steven: [00:37:06] Roads? What about the military? The role of the government? Certainly the one legitimate role is to protect its citizens both from exterior and interior threats and I would say Chinese propaganda and some content that they won't even allow in their country because they've seen the studies. They know the irreparable damage. Yeah, I would say that that's a legitimate that falls under the legitimate purview of government to prevent and eliminate that threat.

Speaker10: [00:37:28] By eliminating I mean the app.

Steven: [00:37:30] Not shochu. So before we go here, we're going to go to it live. In fact, check it. Just so you know, to set this up. Chu also sent out an army of propaganda influencers. These are the medium sized business owners to which he was referring.

Speaker20: [00:37:45] I spend so many hours a day on TikTok. Yeah, it's part of my every day. It's now my full time career. It's what I do.

Speaker10: [00:37:52] Face is.

Speaker20: [00:37:53] Aggressively TikTok. I've been able to not only have opportunities from the platform itself, but I've been able to do bigger things like, you know, commercial roles, acting roles, going to mirrors because of TikTok and because of the fan base that I was able to grow.

Speaker10: [00:38:08] Can I take Diane Keaton's look.

Steven: [00:38:10] And make it fatter?

Speaker10: [00:38:10] Personal income has really come.

Speaker14: [00:38:12] Through brand deals, most of which happened on TikTok. So if it were to be banned, like, those brand deals would go away. And so it's 60% of my consulting business. And so I'd be left with like just a small margin of what I'm currently making. Who cares would not be sustainable for me and my brother. To really live off of.

Steven: [00:38:26] That is the backbone of American society. Clearly there. Right there. He runs a few bodegas.

Speaker6: [00:38:32] That zoomer hair.

Steven: [00:38:33] Hey, when people bitch about the American dream being out of reach, I was just thinking about this. We've talked about how actually and I get it that there's this crazy inflation right now. For the first time, the American dream might be out of reach for young people. Housing prices have gone up, but you can also move somewhere that's maybe not the city, maybe not the most hip area. But when people talk about the American dream going away, the American dream used to be work 9 to 5. Come home, white picket fence, right? You have a house, a car, a family, enough money to go on vacation. But let me ask you this. I am 35 years old. Okay. And I was thinking about this. When you think of the American dream back in the day, what people did, I don't know anyone my age or younger who works in a foundry. I'm not one. And I know we can talk about trades versus higher education and gender studies, but just do you know anyone under the age of 30 who works in a foundry?

Speaker10: [00:39:18] No. No, because you can still do it. You can be paid.

Steven: [00:39:22] Well, and then you can achieve the American dream. Anyone here know any good young welders? No, not manufacturers. That was the American dream. Just to make it clear, you want what they were able to experience. They were able to reap. But you want to not work with your hands. And by the way, it's not lost on me. I don't work with my hands. Yeah, I work with my brain ish. Well, look at.

Gerald: [00:39:40] The end of that video. The guy, I mean, just think about the argument that he's making. He's like, Oh, man, poor me. If you actually shut down tick tock, then my income goes away. And I'm like, So let me get this straight on the one Christmas miracle.

Speaker6: [00:39:51] That all you could.

Gerald: [00:39:51] Do kill two birds with one stone. That's fantastic. So on the one hand, I can. I can take your income away, which. Okay, that's fine. That's not a bad. That is a bad thing, right? You don't want to take somebody's income away. On the other hand, I can let the Chinese Communist Party spy on every American citizen in the United States and potentially harm all of us, including mostly the kids. I don't know which way to go.

Brian Callen: [00:40:11] Yeah, it's also a technology that targets the brain stem. Yeah, we know how that works. It's called persuasion technology. And that's sort of that as as advanced as it gets in that. And they're only getting better at hypnotizing the young people you're talking about.

Gerald: [00:40:29] We don't sit down. We don't have an attention span like. Right. The reason that some cultures are good at math is because they can sit and work on a problem without getting distracted, right? They'll just sit there and not give up on it. But when you have five second video, five second video, you're going to look at something and go to the next thing.

Speaker10: [00:40:42] Really quickly. I want to go to.

Brian Callen: [00:40:43] The 14 year old daughter who's on TikTok like this. And I when I ask her a question while she's on TikTok, it's as though I threw ice water on her back.

Steven: [00:40:52] Yeah, well, you should also stop doing that.

Brian Callen: [00:40:54] And that's part of your conditioning. But it's the only way I can get her attention. And then she just lifts a finger when I say hi. But she's still on her TikTok. Yeah, I.

Steven: [00:41:01] Know. It really is. Well, we'll get into some of the the neuroscience with that. And Kevin, you know, he's a PhD here and he'll let you know talking.

Speaker10: [00:41:08] About ice baths.

Steven: [00:41:10] We love you, Kevin. Kevin, He was also a marine. I don't know if you knew that square bear is a square bear. He's he's brilliant. But he really dove into the meta analysis with these. And yeah, it's very it is incredibly harmful. And one thing I will say before we go to the hearing that we're pretty proud of, this is pretty rare, by the way, and we thank you for tuning in on Rumble. We have a far greater viewership on this show than I have total social media reach, which is very rare. Usually you hope for a certain percentage of your social media, reach a good portion of you. You bookmark it right for 10 a.m. Eastern. And by the way, that really means ten, ten, ten, ten. But that's your fault because you guys start funneling in late. So we say 10 a.m. Eastern. But there are far more people who tune in like you used to with TV Guide. Watch the show for an hour and a half, two hours. If it's a live stream like today, a live fact check depending on the stream and you move on with your day and we make the references available for you. I know that my retention is not nearly as I can remember who I was with, what I was wearing when I saw these films when I was young. And I'd like to comment below if you've experienced this because I would pay $10, I'd go into a dark theater and in order to be polite, I wouldn't have my phone on.

Steven: [00:42:09] I'd be quiet and I would watch even if I didn't like the film. I'll have films now that I like and I go, Did I? And I'll watch it for 20 minutes ago. I already saw this because the second there's a boring lull, the second you feel like you're not being stimulated enough, you start scrolling through your phone. And so it's gotten to the point where I put my phone on the charger at the other end of the room. If I'm going to watch a documentary, if I'm going to watch a film, if I'm spending time with family because I noticed it affecting me. And we really do want you to look, everything old is new again. Tune in. You want to know what we think? Tune into the show. You want to have the context, Tune into the show. You want to be able to expand upon the information that we provide you while we make the references available and then move on with your day. That's why I'm not tweeting out or putting Instagram pictures of my my food or my latest deadlift PR because who gives a shit? We used to sit down and it was an experience and we would retain information. Today we're being bombarded with it and that's why you're seeing these incredibly damaging effects, almost similar to the effects of long term addiction or long term brain damage. Go back, Go.

Brian Callen: [00:43:10] Back to you. Deadlifting.

Steven: [00:43:11] Yeah, Well, you know, I don't.

Brian Callen: [00:43:13] Do you wear a lifting suit or no pants? Wait.

Speaker10: [00:43:16] There's a man.

Brian Callen: [00:43:17] That's working with your hands. There's a point that's working with your hands is what I'm trying to say. No, I know, I know. I would watch that. I could. I would scroll through that. But have you noticed that you were safe? Have you noticed that yourself?

Steven: [00:43:27] That you don't remember things now like you used to?

Brian Callen: [00:43:29] Yes, it does rewire your brain. Yeah. It's just because what happens is you'll you'll I'll be like, I'm just going to go to TikTok for a two seconds to make sure everything because there's a girl on a skateboard in a bikini. I want to make sure she's safe. Yeah. And then 40 minutes later, I'm Gwyneth Paltrow.

Steven: [00:43:47] Plows into her.

Brian Callen: [00:43:49] And that's exactly I don't.

Steven: [00:43:51] Know what I expected. This is always how it ends.

Brian Callen: [00:43:52] And she's wearing a China doll mask. That's what she calls the prestige.

Steven: [00:43:55] There it is.

Brian Callen: [00:43:58] It's a magic trick that yes.

Speaker10: [00:44:00] It's a magic trick for the.

Brian Callen: [00:44:01] People who didn't see the movie. All right. Yeah.

Speaker10: [00:44:03] Don't ask her how.

Steven: [00:44:03] She's pulling it.

Brian Callen: [00:44:04] So got bruises all over my body. Metaphorically.

Speaker10: [00:44:06] Keep going.

Steven: [00:44:07] Josh Hawley even talked about the app on Wednesday, saying that we learned this week that it actually looks like TikTok has infiltrated state government websites. They are very likely collecting your personal information. This is crazy. This has got to stop. And the way we stop it is by banning it. Let's go now live to Cocomelon. Stand in Mr. Chu speaking.

Speaker1: [00:44:23] Help them understand the data that we're collecting. A lot of it is speculation. You know, this is something they could do. They could do. But if you look at the subtext, this is something that so every company could do.

Speaker6: [00:44:32] I'm running out of time. Let me just say that if TikTok chose not to take the sensitive, this sensitive information that you don't need for a transaction and support our comprehensive privacy bill, that would be that would be very helpful. The other thing I wanted to ask so really, this is this is a yes or no that TikTok does TikTok share user information from companies, from parent companies, from affiliated or she had no idea what.

Gerald: [00:45:10] Tiktok was until you do your.

Speaker10: [00:45:12] Research, user.

Speaker6: [00:45:13] Information to someone wrote those notes overseas.

Speaker1: [00:45:19] In the past. Yes. For interoperability. Interoperability purposes. Now, after project taxes, all protected US data will be stored here with the access controlled by a special team of us.

Brian Callen: [00:45:31] Go back to the Labour camp after this. But just so.

Steven: [00:45:34] You know, he just said back then. Yes. Can someone lay live fact? Can you bring back when they lied and said that they weren't doing it back then? Because right now what he's telling you is back then. Yes. But now we will say no.

Brian Callen: [00:45:47] Is that a Spanish accent? I have no idea. It's hard to do.

Speaker10: [00:45:50] I'm not entirely.

Steven: [00:45:50] Sure what it is.

Brian Callen: [00:45:51] You got to take my dialect. Just.

Steven: [00:45:52] It comes from seething rage. So it's a little bit.

Speaker10: [00:45:54] Yeah. Yeah. Yes. No. No. Okay.

Brian Callen: [00:45:57] That's super.

Steven: [00:45:58] Stereotypical. Exactly.

Brian Callen: [00:46:00] That's what you see in a sushi restaurant. Not. Yeah, let's.

Steven: [00:46:02] Find that back. Because back then they were saying no. So why should we trust them Now, this is the issue. And you know why nothing happens. Because people like czajkowski. They don't.

Speaker10: [00:46:08] They don't care.

Steven: [00:46:09] Nothing happens with the section 230. They go, they go okay, what am I dealing with today.

Speaker10: [00:46:14] Probably the greatest threat to our national security and the greatest rival we have had since World War two. A communist shithole.

Steven: [00:46:23] That is.

Speaker10: [00:46:23] China and not the people of China. I'm talking about.

Steven: [00:46:25] The communist Chinese government because I actually have empathy for the Chinese.

Speaker10: [00:46:29] People and you can't be bothered to. It's like a run on sentence. I don't know if we can rewind that when she goes and oversees you, you, you, you are bad and you should feel bad. Yeah, absolutely. So we have a.

Steven: [00:46:43] Clip of the.

Gerald: [00:46:43] Ceo of TikTok actually testifying. I think it's either an opening statement or a response to another question that TikTok is not, in fact, stealing any of your information. Oh, really?

Brian Callen: [00:46:53] This is way back. This is.

Speaker1: [00:46:54] Evidence. It's not.

Steven: [00:46:55] This is today is today.

Speaker1: [00:46:56] I'm sorry, by the Chinese government. It's a private company. 60% of the company is owned by global institutional investors. 20% is owned by the founder and 20% owned by employees around the world. Bytedance has five board members. Three of them are American. I believe him. Now, TikTok itself is not available in mainland China, where headquartered in Los Angeles and in Singapore, and we have 7000 employees in the US today. Still, we have heard important concerns about the potential for unwanted foreign access to US data and potential manipulation by TikTok US ecosystem.

Speaker10: [00:47:34] I'm hearing the word echo right now.

Steven: [00:47:35] I don't know what happened. Is there something never been dismissed?

Speaker10: [00:47:37] Can we play again the first.

Steven: [00:47:38] Portion of that clip? Because I want this is one of those this is one of those situations where we're saying the exact same thing, only he doesn't realize it's horrifying. Play. The first portion of that clip about the ownership of TikTok.

Speaker1: [00:47:48] Is not owned or controlled by the Chinese government. It's a private company. 60% of the company is owned by global institutional investors. 20% is owned by the founder and 20% owned by employees around the world.

Steven: [00:48:02] He is saying. So think about what he's saying. You could picture that exact same phrase being spoken through words of terror from Alex Jones. He says 60% is owned by global institutional investors.

Speaker10: [00:48:16] Look, 60% of TikTok.

Speaker2: [00:48:18] Is owned by globalist institutional investors.

Speaker10: [00:48:22] This is terrifying. He's saying the exact same thing.

Steven: [00:48:25] Oh, no, that puts us at ease. Because you're saying, well, it's not the communist Chinese government. It's institutional globalist investors.

Brian Callen: [00:48:30] Now. Human.

Steven: [00:48:31] They are, by the way.

Speaker10: [00:48:32] Yeah. By the way.

Steven: [00:48:32] Have no vested interest in cheap labor. Slave labor.

Speaker10: [00:48:35] Continuing. No. Okay. Well, that makes sense that certainly global institutional investors would have.

Steven: [00:48:41] America's best interest at heart.

Brian Callen: [00:48:42] That screams child safety, doesn't it? Yes, exactly. Global institutional investors are watching out for your kids. That's what I look.

Steven: [00:48:47] For on the box. Global institutionally invested in up.

Brian Callen: [00:48:53] Our our children are safe.

Gerald: [00:48:55] Yes. So really quickly I think he's kind of splitting hairs here. But I want to make sure that I have this correctly. So this is a question for the guys out in the booth. He's talking about TikTok and saying, hey, we're not even headquartered there. We're in Singapore and we're by heavily Chinese population in Singapore, by the way. Right. And Los Angeles. And I think he's kind of splitting hairs because it's bytedance is the connection.

Steven: [00:49:13] Splitting arrow straight hairs.

Gerald: [00:49:15] So double check me guys and make sure it's bytedance headquartered there. Is that the connection that he's trying to kind of like? No, no, we're outside of China completely.

Steven: [00:49:21] Yeah. And let me know when we have the clip or we have the sorceror hoodie of him in the past denying that they were using Americans data because he's saying that now. And this is what always happens, right? No, no. Trust us now. Hey, did this happen with. Wait, hold on a second. The pandemic. Wait a second. Did this happen with mRNA vaccines?

Speaker10: [00:49:37] Be ready to hit the YouTube dump button.

Steven: [00:49:39] Myocarditis, bitches, which we now all know. And far more flu deaths for children than COVID combined. All of COVID combined. One year of the flu for children. Yep.

Speaker10: [00:49:49] I just had to get it off my chest because we couldn't say that on YouTube. But trust them because back then they said, No, no, no. We know we're following the science. This is always what happens during the time they say.

Steven: [00:49:57] No, they deny, deny, deny. Then afterwards they have an excuse and say, but you should trust us going forward. Why should I trust you? Oh, my God, what is that on CNN? Okay.

Gerald: [00:50:04] It was getting a little spicy there. You could tell. Maybe. Maybe. Go to it right now real quick. They are playing some of the videos. Whoa.

Brian Callen: [00:50:12] What is that?

Gerald: [00:50:13] She's this is this is on TikTok.

Brian Callen: [00:50:15] Oh, boy.

Steven: [00:50:16] By the way, that's not our glitch. I don't think. I think that's them. Yeah. Again.

Brian Callen: [00:50:23] It just looks like a pumping motion and stop it, I'm saying.

Speaker16: [00:50:27] So that video was posted 41 days ago.

Speaker17: [00:50:30] As you can see, it is captioned me as f at the House Energy and Commerce Committee on March 23rd of this year. This video was posted before this hearing was publicly noticed. I think that's a very interesting point to raise. But more concerning is the fact that it names this chairwoman by name. Your own community guidelines state.

Steven: [00:50:53] Keep in mind, these things are allowed on TikTok, where we've been banned and we get fact checked. And we are accused of encouraging violence by encouraging you to stand up peacefully against your government. Tiktok allows this. And I don't know. It's not because I have a vested interest. Let's keep watching.

Speaker17: [00:51:07] Extremist organizations, individuals or acts when there is a threat to public safety or an account is used to promote or glorify off platform violence, we ban the account. This video has been up for 41 days. It is a direct threat to the chairwoman of this committee, the people in this room, and yet it still remains on the platform. And you expect us to believe that you are capable of maintaining the data, security, privacy and security of 150 million Americans where you can't even protect the people in this room. This answers think that is a blatant display of how vulnerable people who use TikTok are. You couldn't take action 21 days when a clear threat, a very violent threat to the chairwoman of this committee and the members of this committee was posted on your platform.

Brian Callen: [00:51:55] Kat Cammack.

Speaker17: [00:51:57] You damn well know she doesn't.

Steven: [00:51:58] Have to look at her notes.

Speaker17: [00:51:59] Notice that the data and security of this committee or the 150 million users of your app because it is an extension of the CCP. And with that, I yield back. Amen.

Steven: [00:52:10] Kick his ass blonde snapper.

Speaker18: [00:52:13] No, we're going to move on.

Speaker10: [00:52:16] Gentle lady yields back.

Steven: [00:52:18] If I would like a moment to to lie.

Gerald: [00:52:22] I wish they would have let him kind of. Kind of hang himself just a little bit.

Speaker10: [00:52:24] Yeah, a little bit.

Steven: [00:52:25] This is the one problem, too, with politicians. They're more interested in grandstanding than actually sort of getting to the bottom of it because and this is also the problem with these not always necessarily being the exact same threat. I don't know with this committee if it's considered perjury. I believe it is. But it's happened in the past. Like Fauci, you know, like I think it was about 117 times and they get away with it anyway. No one ever actually gets charged. Right. And no one ever actually has to deal with consequences. But Hootie, they brought it in because just now we had that clip. Keep in mind, he said we used to, but we won't going forward with our new I think he said Texas project, something like that.

Speaker10: [00:52:59] I can't. So we're still waiting on the clip, but.

Speaker9: [00:53:00] We do have an.

Speaker10: [00:53:01] Update from.

Gerald: [00:53:02] Ginger snap that.

Speaker9: [00:53:04] Beijing takes stake Board seat in Bytedance's key China entity. That's what it is. Okay. So essentially, yes, it is. Bytedance is the parent company.

Gerald: [00:53:12] Okay. So they're trying they're basically trying to say, oh, no, TikTok. It's a subsidiary of Bytedance. Bytedance is the parent company. That's where the game is played. Don't let them tell you, Los Angeles and Singapore and China has nothing to do with it because it's like, okay, like we're wholly owned by a caliphate, right? It's like, yeah, we have no ties to it. They just own us.

Steven: [00:53:29] A caliphate that's run by thousands of tiny fists of fury. That's true. Dishonest. But guys, bring us that source. It shouldn't be very hard to find, of course, that they lied in the past. They have constantly been saying that. No, no, it's not spyware. No, no, We don't share your information. Now, he just admitted. Well, we did, but we won't. Moving forward, when are there consequences for the fact that you were.

Speaker10: [00:53:49] Doing it then.

Steven: [00:53:50] And you were lying? This is why Americans don't. Why don't you trust your institutions? Well, take a guess.

Speaker10: [00:53:56] What are they doing? It should be.

Steven: [00:53:58] Oh, so back then you lied. Back then your company lied. Great. We're going to slap you with a fine and someone's going to be making a perp walk. Instead, it's.

Speaker10: [00:54:05] Are you rapscallion? Okay, We're going to keep an eye on you. Did they get back to us?

Speaker9: [00:54:10] So what we have here is leaked audio from 80 internal TikTok meetings shows at us user data has been repeatedly accessed from China. Wow. This is from a external auditor who stated, I feel like these tools with these tools are some backdoor access user data in almost all of them.

Gerald: [00:54:26] Yeah. From June of.

Speaker10: [00:54:28] 20. Well, we knew.

Steven: [00:54:29] That, but I want them denying it. They issued a statement denying that they were for a long time denying that they were spying on Americans. That's the issue is the constant lying. And let's listen to him more right now. Mr. Shochu is speaking. Let us know what the hashtag is right now as this goes on the TikTok hashtag, because we'll be live fact checking it. Okay.

Speaker6: [00:54:44] Alarming information brought to light by whistleblowers have shown that social media companies are intimately aware of the effects of their products on young women political extremism. I'm trying to listen more. Despite this, they withheld those studies or declined to investigate further back to the case. It shows a pattern.

Speaker10: [00:55:04] Notice that Democrats have the notes.

Steven: [00:55:06] And the Republicans are pissed. Not saying Republicans are the solution to your problems, but Democrats sure are the cause of a lot of them. And I think Dan Bongino reiterates that pretty damn well who's also on rumble fusion.

Speaker6: [00:55:16] Models on mental health or safety? And if so, how and when are those findings made public? And if not, do you believe they are necessary?

Speaker1: [00:55:27] Congresswoman, We rely on external third parties and fund their research to help us understand some of these issues. For example, we worked with the Digital Wellness Lab at the Boston Children's Hospital to understand the 60 minute time limit that we put for all our under 18 users. And we are supportive of legislation that provides more funding for research like, for example, for the NIH.

Speaker10: [00:55:48] Yeah, because I know that funding.

Steven: [00:55:49] Yeah. And I know that after, you know, 60 Minutes is about my limit of watching Buffalo Bill.

Gerald: [00:55:56] Hey, I think more research needed. We do have that clip hoodie. Do we have that clip? We got the clip. Okay. Perfect. Which clip of him lying back issuing a statement of what I'm saying?

Speaker9: [00:56:04] Yeah, The clip is actually the chief operating officer lying. And. Yeah.

Speaker10: [00:56:09] Okay, let's.

Gerald: [00:56:10] Let's dig into a few things, if we could, specifically about Tiktok's links to the Chinese Communist Party. In response to back then, my colleagues, TikTok claimed earlier this year that the company has never shared data, never with the Chinese government. Is that correct?

Speaker18: [00:56:24] That is correct, yes.

Gerald: [00:56:25] And has never shared data with the Chinese Communist Party. Is that correct?

Speaker18: [00:56:29] We will never share data, period.

Gerald: [00:56:32] My question was, in the past tense, has TikTok ever shared data with the Chinese Communist?

Speaker18: [00:56:37] We have never shared data with the Chinese government, correct?

Gerald: [00:56:40] With the Chinese Communist Party?

Speaker18: [00:56:42] Yes. Correct.

Speaker10: [00:56:44] Do you have a look at the arrogance?

Steven: [00:56:45] Yes, correct. And you just heard him right now. Chou, we used.

Speaker10: [00:56:49] To you just heard.

Steven: [00:56:50] Him right now say we did, but we're not going to now.

Speaker10: [00:56:53] Why is she not in cuffs? Yeah, well, the only.

Steven: [00:56:56] Victims are your.

Speaker10: [00:56:57] Children.

Steven: [00:56:57] Hope you enjoy your sons and.

Speaker10: [00:57:02] Your daughters.

Steven: [00:57:03] Because it's only 60 minutes. Cock less.

Brian Callen: [00:57:05] Be at least say penis.

Steven: [00:57:07] Yes, Penis. Penis less.

Speaker10: [00:57:09] It's science. It's too.

Steven: [00:57:10] Many. What did you want to see again there, Brian?

Speaker10: [00:57:11] Because we're doing this.

Brian Callen: [00:57:12] I just wanted to see that. Is that what he actually said? We used to in the past? Was he referring to the fact that they used to give that data to the. He said they used to.

Steven: [00:57:21] No, He said they used to use personal data. They used to mine personal data. Amazing. And you can guess what they were doing with that data considering that of course they are.

Brian Callen: [00:57:29] Is it possible that the woman. I don't see color but she didn't look like she was Chinese, right. Was keep in mind.

Steven: [00:57:37] Your monitor is that photo negative? It's in dark mode. So you're seeing a photo? Negative. Thank God she's actually Ugandan. But go on. I.

Brian Callen: [00:57:42] I was going to say, I hope the same goes for me. I want people to judge me on the content of my words and character, not my not my face, which looks pretty good in this light. Well, compared to Alex Jones, I don't want to make this about myself because this is about Gwyneth Paltrow's. I mean about TikTok.

Steven: [00:58:02] Isn't that terrifying? There is never any accountability. It's amazing. It really is.

Gerald: [00:58:06] This this is the same kind of thing they've done here, right? So the CEO and the CEO can get up and say TikTok has never shared data, but, you know, Bytedance maybe. Right. But not us.

Brian Callen: [00:58:15] Right. And next, you're going to tell me that, you know, Corona came from a lab, right? Obviously, if you can eat an undercooked bat somewhere in China, then you deserve what you get is what I'm trying to say.

Steven: [00:58:28] No, Whenever I go to five bats, I get my medium Well, for that very reason. I always got to be careful.

Brian Callen: [00:58:32] Medium well is good.

Steven: [00:58:34] I make sure medium well all the way.

Brian Callen: [00:58:35] That's right. And make sure you know what cave It's coming from. If the bat smells cave, you know you got a problem. Yeah, exactly. We call them cave apples in China. It's the.

Steven: [00:58:43] It's basically synonymous with gamey people. Like bat smells gamey. You just say cave, cave. It's better descriptor. But by the way, let's contrast this.

Speaker10: [00:58:49] And this is why we're so excited about Rumble.

Steven: [00:58:52] While we're talking about what's happening and them sharing information. Right. Chinese spyware effectively Rumble told the government of France to go screw themselves. Right. They disabled access in France because the French government demanded that rumble remove content from what they claimed were Russian news sources. And Rumble responded by saying Rumble is growing so rapidly because we trust adults to make decisions for themselves about what ideas they can express. So Rumble said to an entire government, and I know what you're thinking Is.

Speaker10: [00:59:20] France really.

Steven: [00:59:21] Considered a government that matters anymore?

Speaker10: [00:59:22] No, but the principle remains.

Steven: [00:59:24] They said, All right, you want us to wait? Hold on a second. You want us to ban Russian information?

Speaker10: [00:59:30] Because keep in mind, in YouTube land, it's you're not even.

Steven: [00:59:33] Allowed to have non pro Ukraine not anti Ukraine non pro Ukraine content. Yeah that's part of their guidelines non pro Ukraine content they're France didn't say get rid of just Russian propaganda they said get rid of Russian.

Speaker10: [00:59:45] News.

Steven: [00:59:46] Sources and rumble said well then I guess you're just going to have to disable the entire website. And that's why we have an entire month free of mug club. A lot of discredit, dot com slash mug.

Speaker10: [00:59:54] Club, right?

Steven: [00:59:55] We've partnered up with Rumble. We could not be happier.

Speaker10: [00:59:57] Yeah I tell you this and they have never.

Steven: [01:00:00] Once not.

Speaker10: [01:00:01] Once.

Steven: [01:00:02] Tried to censor what I say or ask me to change what I say, how I say it. They've never once had any input as to who is in this show. Every time we go to them and say, Look, we might do this, this might be a risk, they say, Well, that's fine. Look, it's your it's your channel, your show. You do whatever you want to do. Yeah. God, how American.

Speaker10: [01:00:17] Yeah, but here's the thing. And they're Canadian. I know. Are they Canadian?

Gerald: [01:00:20] They get it better than we do. But Brian, I want to go back to something you said at the end of that quote, We trust adults to make decisions for themselves about ideas they can express. And you said bravo. Yes.

Brian Callen: [01:00:30] Sorry, guys. Let's speak French. Think about.

Gerald: [01:00:32] That. Yeah. That is such a basic like the sky is blue and I breathe oxygen statement and we're like, oh, thank God. I know. Our reaction now to something so basic and fundamental is at least somebody standing up.

Brian Callen: [01:00:45] That's. That's what I worry about. That's what I mean. So you can get very used to insanity and you can get and these kinds of things. It's like the frog in water. When you raise the temperature slowly, we have to be careful that the water isn't boiling. You know, by the way, this.

Steven: [01:01:02] Wasn't Illuminati just so people don't. I was saying, put it that was Gwyneth Paltrow saying put it in the vagina in the little quadrant down there so people know that we're livestreaming. I want you to continue your point. Sorry, but you but I did this and everyone's going to think that I'm sleeping with Rihanna.

Speaker10: [01:01:16] Oh.

Brian Callen: [01:01:16] God. She's she's got. Yeah, that's a yeah.

Steven: [01:01:20] She also has a horrible she has a horrible stutter, though, so she's an inspiration. She really. Ella, Ella, Ella.

Speaker10: [01:01:26] Hey, hey, hey.

Steven: [01:01:27] I thought my radio was broken. Oh, I'm a child, Brian. No, your point was correct, though we do get used.

Brian Callen: [01:01:34] To overcoming obstacles like stutters. Yes. What?

Steven: [01:01:36] Yeah, well, like Joe Biden, all of a sudden he developed a stutter when he was running for president. I heard he's got it at.

Brian Callen: [01:01:40] The age of 70. But by the way, he might just be a what's the word, animatronic puppet. And he's glitching. Yes. Because he I think he died in 2017. Yeah, that's the rumor. I don't want to spread. No, you.

Steven: [01:01:51] Know what I mean? Yeah. They changed the tint on the Tupac hologram and just put on a little hairpiece. That's exactly right.

Speaker10: [01:01:56] That's exactly right.

Steven: [01:01:57] So let's go back to what they're saying here. Now, here's okay, let's see. Republican in Florida. I'm willing to bet he's not using notes as much.

Speaker1: [01:02:02] We we do take these issues very seriously.

Speaker10: [01:02:05] Yes or no?

Speaker1: [01:02:06] And we do provide resources for anyone who types in anything that. Sir, yes or no?

Speaker10: [01:02:12] I see you're not willing to answer the question. Or take any responsibility. I think this was regarding.

Steven: [01:02:19] Content and suicide.

Speaker10: [01:02:21] The technology and the harms it.

Speaker7: [01:02:23] Creates.

Speaker11: [01:02:24] It's just very, very sad, very sad. It's very sad. This is why Congress needs to enact a comprehensive privacy and data security law to give Americans more control over their information and to protect our children. We must save our children from big tech companies like yours who continue to abuse and manipulate them for your own gain.

Gerald: [01:02:50] Doing good. I just have a hard time taking this guy seriously.

Steven: [01:02:52] Yeah, because he looks like he looks like Mr. Peabody. Yeah, a little bit.

Brian Callen: [01:02:57] It sounds a little drunk. He looks like.

Steven: [01:02:59] Melting Bob bar like. I expect Snowshoe to be like, Hey, I don't know the answer, but, like.

Speaker10: [01:03:06] It's a simple yes or no.

Gerald: [01:03:08] It's like I don't know how to take.

Speaker10: [01:03:11] I'll take that as a maybe.

Gerald: [01:03:14] I said, No.

Speaker10: [01:03:16] I don't hear good. Did he say no? I know I'm sounding more like Louie Anderson. Yeah. Oh, my dad used to bang me on the bar at the buffet, and this is why I'm damaged.

Steven: [01:03:31] Oh, let's go to Miss Pearl Necklace.

Speaker18: [01:03:33] Operations that serve up harmful content and has a corrosive effect on our kids mental and physical well-being. For many years, I've sounded the alarm in this committee of how big tech platforms like TikTok and Facebook and Instagram, Facebook.

Speaker10: [01:03:50] She got that in there.

Speaker18: [01:03:52] Surveil track, gather personal private information and use it along with data brokers to target and influence our behavior. This is a much broader issue than TikTok in China. There are other malign actors across the world. She's going to go to.

Speaker10: [01:04:09] Russia and election, isn't she?

Speaker18: [01:04:11] Use it as an element of social control and influence peddling And worse, let's see. And as I detailed in this committee last year when we passed the our online privacy law, the harms to children are very serious and demand swift action. Big tech platforms profit immensely from keeping children addicted. They do not care about the privacy, safety and health of our kids. Correct. They are the modern day tobacco and cigarette companies that for so long resisted and misled Congress. And it took.

Steven: [01:04:52] So this is the problem here. This is more grandstanding where she wants to. It's the opposite of comedy. So I've told you about this when I was on Fox News for four and a half years, they would get mad at me because coming from a comedy background, you know, brevity is the soul of wit. And so I'd sit there and be like an Alan Colmes type. And by the way, he was a nice guy. He was a I like him, but they would bring me on with leftist and they would say, well, I don't know where Stephen got is a college degree. But, you know, I studied political science and I would answer it. Never graduated grade school. What's your point?

Speaker10: [01:05:16] And I got called into the second floor.

Steven: [01:05:18] They said, you're not taking enough time. The goal on television is to, like take one point and drag it out for as much time as you can. That's how you beat the other person. I'm like, I would rather make a point effectively instead of Philip. The next point, right? The problem is right. Okay. How does it harm children? Now, here's what's really important here. When you're hearing Democrats and Republicans question, there are two different views for the future, the Internet. Okay. They're saying children are unsafe. So are you talking about targeting children? Right. And promoting hormone replacement therapy? Are you talking about sex changes with children? No, no, you can't do that because the assistant health secretary.

Speaker10: [01:05:47] Rachel Levine.

Steven: [01:05:47] Said that that's going to be normal in the United States. The wheels will move on this. So let's look at this. When we're talking about protecting children, both sides are right. Both sides are talking about protecting a free Internet. I think there's a problem with spying on Americans, right? I think that's a problem. But Americans should be able to choose what they watch. One World, the world that Rumble sees. The world that we see, The world that conservatives see. Okay. Let me start with the left world. So I'm going to so my left, your right. I guess this is just so just assume this is left. You're watching the screen. It's a flip, right? You understand how this works. So the left sees a world when they say safe, what they mean is, okay, we kind of agree that they shouldn't be spying on you, but this show is not available. People talking about election integrity is not available. People talking about mRNA mRNA vaccines having harmful effects on children, specifically children, specifically young men, myocarditis side effects.

Speaker10: [01:06:36] Specifically. You can hit the YouTube.

Steven: [01:06:37] Button dump button if you need.

Speaker10: [01:06:38] To, but.

Steven: [01:06:39] Specifically, that would be harmful to young men, right? What we're talking about our youth, where their world. None of these things get communicated. Pro-second Amendment. That's why we have Mr. Guns and Gear that.

Speaker10: [01:06:48] Can't be communicated. Gun safety videos can't be communicated. The sitting Republican of the United States, Donald Trump, is removed.

Steven: [01:06:53] From those platforms and everything is still determined.

Speaker10: [01:06:56] Algorithmically.

Steven: [01:06:57] They like that because the algorithm is dictated by who?

Speaker10: [01:06:59] Well, the White House right now, on the other side, we say we.

Steven: [01:07:02] Protect our children by ensuring, by the way that things are age appropriate, by assuring that there is no spying and by by ensuring that people can watch what they.

Speaker10: [01:07:11] Choose to.

Steven: [01:07:11] Watch. In other words, in our world, you subscribe to someone, you hit the notification. Which you can do on Rumble. It doesn't work on YouTube anymore. Guess what? You now get the content that you asked.

Speaker10: [01:07:22] For, like a cable plan.

Steven: [01:07:23] Or a television when you used to.

Speaker10: [01:07:24] Choose to tune.

Steven: [01:07:25] In. The left wants it to be thrust in front of you so that they can still control what you see.

Speaker10: [01:07:31] So we both agree.

Steven: [01:07:31] On privacy issues, but we don't agree on allowing children to only select age appropriate content, but furthermore, more importantly, adults to be able.

Speaker10: [01:07:40] To make their own decisions.

Steven: [01:07:42] Regarding content. So when people say the far.

Speaker10: [01:07:45] Left and the far right, man, we really only.

Steven: [01:07:47] Agree on one thing and that's why they're grandstanding and not getting down to brass tacks.

Speaker10: [01:07:51] Because there is a.

Steven: [01:07:52] Chasm between us. I want to be.

Speaker10: [01:07:54] Crystal clear while we're talking.

Steven: [01:07:55] Not just about tick tock. The vision is.

Speaker10: [01:07:57] You get to.

Steven: [01:07:58] Choose what it is that you watch and that is what you see. That is not what is happening on Facebook, on YouTube. I don't know if you know this. I can't find anything I search for on YouTube anymore.

Speaker10: [01:08:08] It's not possible. That's how YouTube started.

Steven: [01:08:11] There is no YouTube anymore. That's why we're starting this exodus.

Speaker10: [01:08:13] To rumble and hopefully there will be other alternatives as well.

Steven: [01:08:15] Rumble would like to see.

Speaker10: [01:08:16] Alternatives and competitors. They're a media platform. They're not a social media platform.

Steven: [01:08:20] Now, let me kind of get down to then you guys can let me know what's happening live because this is important to provide this context here. Okay. There is destruction of the.

Speaker10: [01:08:27] Brain.

Steven: [01:08:27] Happening with passive consumption of content, and that's not hyperbole. You can check the references. We'll make them all publicly available. But I'll give you a snapshot here. So things like YouTube shorts, Facebook shorts, Instagram reels, right. And Tick Tock, of course, was sort of the catalyst for all of this. Now, think of this for a second. These are the most powerful companies in the world. They all have access to the data and the science and they know, oh, hold on a second. Five second views are not good. We shouldn't be encouraging people to do that. But you have tick tock. Then Instagram follows, then Facebook follows and YouTube follows. Not one.

Speaker10: [01:08:56] Of them said, Wait a second, we know this is.

Steven: [01:08:59] Bad. Maybe we should stop.

Speaker10: [01:09:01] But take.

Steven: [01:09:02] Our word for it Now. When we tell you that we are telling the truth, here's what's happening and here's I believe this is a doctor, this next clip or a neuroscientist, some kind of an expert, because I never graduated grade school talking about what happens to your brain with.

Speaker10: [01:09:14] These five.

Steven: [01:09:15] Second dopamine releases. Non stop.

Speaker17: [01:09:18] Dr. Ziegler, let's break it down. What is tick tock brain?

Speaker10: [01:09:23] So tick tock brain is something that we know.

Speaker1: [01:09:26] Has been going on.

Speaker10: [01:09:27] For years. But finally, we have the research to support it.

Speaker16: [01:09:30] And what that means is that the brains, particularly the developing brain of young children and teens, is starting to get quite used to these short form videos to the point where what the actual brain science behind it is, is that we see dopamine, which is your feel good hormone. It is what is involved in addiction. It's what's involved in the reward circuitry of your brain. We see that it gets spiked up. So when they're looking through and they're scrolling through these real quick videos, that's what's happening. They're getting these dopamine hits that feel good just the way it does when people sometimes use drugs or they use alcohol or they become addicted to other things. And so that's now kind of the frightening data to support what we've wondered all along, which is, yes, in fact, there is an actual neurological reason why by looking at those kinds of videos is just so addicting.

Steven: [01:10:19] Yeah, it's also. Gross But let me give you a few quick points here that I think you need to know. We talked about this a long time ago with pornography. I think it was Gary Wilson. There's your brain on porn. If you go to mug club, you'll be able to find it. By the way, it helped a lot of men break their pornography addiction. And by the way, that is a thing. I'm not just talking about the Sears catalog. I'm not talking about nudie magazines, but a tab and a tab and a tab and a tab and a tab and a tab of porn is incredibly addictive, arguably more addictive than many drugs. But here's the research on this mobile phone addiction, short term memory function. This is you can go find this on ResearchGate or our website. They were found to significantly and negatively correlate with each other. Pediatrician John Hutton, and he's a director at the Cincinnati Children's Hospital, said It's like an infinite candy store. Tick tock in particular is a dopamine machine. If you want kids to pay attention, they need to practice paying attention. Here's one more clip from a psychologist.

Brian Callen: [01:11:07] Jonathan Hite.

Steven: [01:11:08] Jonathan Hite talking about it. And then I'll give you a startling statistic regarding IQ.

Gerald: [01:11:13] When human beings are raised.

Speaker16: [01:11:15] Without much independence. But yes, with a phone and they spend their.

Gerald: [01:11:18] Childhood just.

Speaker16: [01:11:19] Interacting with the screen and especially social media, I believe it messes up cortical development. The girls in particular, the rates of anxiety and depression are more much more than 100% since 2010. The rate of self harm, hospitalizations for self harm is nearly tripled for pre teen girls. So Gen Z is in big, big trouble. They're hurting, they're fragile. They're not doing well in the workplace. Managers are finding them very hard to work with. So we have a generation that's running off the rails.

Steven: [01:11:51] Well, women being hard to work with. That's not necessarily new. I know what you're saying, but he's talking about it in a different facet. Here's the thing. Iq is down for the first time in 100 years. That's crazy. This comes from daily milk. I think the biggest decrease was in people aged 18 to 22 and those less well educated. And here's the thing. The left says, Well, hold on a second. Shout your period, shout your gender, Right? The world needs to see this because we need to stop.

Speaker10: [01:12:16] What you're doing isn't working.

Steven: [01:12:18] Depression is up. Suicide is up. Mental illness is up. People with feelings of hopelessness are up. They view their potential prospects more negatively than the generation before them. So this idea.

Speaker10: [01:12:27] That everything needs.

Steven: [01:12:28] To be shared at all times, it's not helping. No, it's not working. It is having deleterious effects.

Gerald: [01:12:36] It's also worse because that study was conducted and finished prior to the pandemic, just before the pandemic. So imagine things were terrible. It was a dumpster fire to begin with. And then the pandemic comes in and you have teachers protesting. Right.

Brian Callen: [01:12:49] And kids are and kids are isolated in their rooms. It's worse for their own safety. And having to wear masks for two years like my kids were in California. This is almost like.

Gerald: [01:12:59] The lost generation, essentially, for the United States because of policies that we've allowed to happen, because of things that we've had happen with COVID and the scare tactics of the left and the media and doctors saying you can't go and be around anybody. It's affected our kids in a way that we will not fully understand for years to come, which is.

Brian Callen: [01:13:15] Why I'm a conservative. And out of the closet, ladies and gentlemen. You think I'm kidding? That's exactly what it's done. The gender insanity. And watching my daughter sit there in a mask and be separated from her friends that long, I was like, oh, I forgot. I'm a conservative.

Steven: [01:13:28] But here's the beauty of it. So here's one thing they're not complaining about, right? As a matter of fact, they we have to have the YouTube dump button because our rebuttal to the kind of content you're about to see is what they have a problem with. So in the left's utopia and by the way, they had it for a year or two, your child is at home with a mask, scroll, scroll, scroll, scroll, scroll. And now they sort of feign outrage at privacy saying, oh, we need to protect privacy. But they wanted your children. They instigated, they instituted, they mandated through policy. Your children are home in a mask, isolated from their friends, isolated from other family members, from small groups, from church activities, or going to.

Speaker10: [01:14:02] Buy some petunia seeds, whatever the hell it was in.

Steven: [01:14:04] Michigan. So they're isolated. But the good news is they could all stay at home and scroll through the kind of content that the left demands.

Speaker10: [01:14:11] Be.

Steven: [01:14:12] Left on the platform.

Speaker1: [01:14:13] And I want to talk to the kids.

Brian Callen: [01:14:16] Hey, kids.

Speaker9: [01:14:17] Oh, hi, kids.

Speaker1: [01:14:19] Hey, kids.

Brian Callen: [01:14:20] Your parents screwed up.

Speaker16: [01:14:25] It's okay to say so. Yours.

Speaker1: [01:14:27] That's why I made a Patreon so that we could talk about it.

Brian Callen: [01:14:32] So that we could connect in a way that has more privacy.

Steven: [01:14:37] So think about this for a second. Your kids.

Speaker10: [01:14:40] Are isolated.

Steven: [01:14:41] From everyone who could have a positive influence. Typically speaking, if someone like that wanted to reach your children privately, they'd at.

Speaker10: [01:14:46] Least have.

Steven: [01:14:47] To spring for a van.

Brian Callen: [01:14:49] I was going to say, and I'm going to say this, that that worries me, that guy. Because when I watch him or her, I'm sorry. I think it's a her. I just I end up and I'm an adult. I want to cut my huge dick off. Yeah, I know, right? So can you imagine what it's like for a kid, you know, and that that guy is downright hypnotic. At least wear sunglasses.

Steven: [01:15:11] Well, he ends every video, too, by saying everything floats down here, which is really weird to me.

Speaker10: [01:15:16] Floats, by the way. There's no goop. No.

Steven: [01:15:19] Hit the rumble button, smash it. And if you're watching on YouTube, please head over to Rumble. It's today. It's going to be free, right? All of mug club is free. And we'll be able to get into more than we can right here because YouTube, while they want to act as though they're protecting your privacy, they want to act as though they want you to have a safe Internet. Guess what? They ban what we say and they still keep the shorts up there and they still thrust the gender bending carnival top into your timeline. Regardless, don't be fooled by charlatans and act like we can find common ground. There's no common ground with these people. I have a.

Brian Callen: [01:15:46] Question. Yeah? Has anybody asked Mr. Chu? Am I pronouncing it properly? Thank you. Yes, very nice. If why it was banned in China. Why? Why is TikTok this platform you are advocating for? Because it's it's fun, it's good for business and all that other stuff. Why is it that it was banned in your country, sir? Has anybody asked him that direct question?

Steven: [01:16:11] I'd like to know what else, though, too. It's not just banned in the country of China, but it is banned in a lot of countries on government devices. Yeah.

Speaker10: [01:16:19] So not your device.

Steven: [01:16:20] But government devices, which would suggest what, Maybe some national security issue, you know, where government devices.

Speaker10: [01:16:25] Correct. Even the United States.

Steven: [01:16:27] Government devices can have TikTok.

Speaker10: [01:16:29] Even in the European.

Steven: [01:16:30] Union, even in Canada. And that's a really messed up place. India, Taiwan. Well, Taiwan is an obvious one. Or as China says, I.

Speaker10: [01:16:37] Don't know why I never hear Taiwan, Pakistan, even Afghanistan.

Gerald: [01:16:42] They got one thing right. Yeah.

Speaker10: [01:16:44] The people who are forcefully.

Steven: [01:16:45] Circumcising women.

Speaker10: [01:16:47] Say Tik Tok. That's a bridge too far. That's.

Brian Callen: [01:16:50] That's a no. Was that an Afghani accent?

Speaker10: [01:16:51] No, that's no, I guess it's a little more Russian because it's sort of.

Brian Callen: [01:16:54] Eastern circumcised women in Somalia. Get it straight. That's true.

Speaker10: [01:16:57] Well, Brian, do they do it in Afghanistan, too? Do they?

Steven: [01:16:59] Oh, yeah. There's a it's a different thing. It's more of a ritual.

Brian Callen: [01:17:02] I've not heard that before.

Gerald: [01:17:03] I think I have an answer for you, though. At least a scenario. Right. I talked to you about TikTok and Bytedance. I think they actually have a version of TikTok that is available in China, except it has like educational. It's educational actually trains their kids to do things, but. I think it's also that degree of separation. Right. So we actually have a clip real quick if you want to play it right now. The CEO, I kind of I guess, won't really answer and see if he was or say if he was prepped by Bytedance for his this today. This is today from just a little bit earlier, I believe. So we can bring that up and play it if you want. Yeah.

Steven: [01:17:32] Let's bring that up and play it and then let's continue to live fact check this. But here's the thing. The main takeaway here today is, yeah, they screwed up in the past. And when they were asked about it before, they lied about it and they said that they weren't spying on you and they said that your information was secure. But today they really mean it, though. Really mean it. Yeah. That's what you're that's what you should leave this with. Or China is the enemy of a free people. The communist government of China. That shouldn't be controversial to say the communist Chinese government is the enemy of a free people and anything that comes.

Speaker10: [01:18:02] From there, certainly media wise.

Steven: [01:18:03] Needs to be questioned, needs to be seen through an incredibly critical lens. That's what I would say the takeaway is. But let's watch this video here from earlier today with Mr. Chu.

Speaker1: [01:18:11] The device. But I prepared for this hearing my team here in DC.

Speaker7: [01:18:15] Can you guarantee that no one.

Speaker10: [01:18:16] At Bytedance Swalwell's.

Speaker7: [01:18:18] Basement had a role in preparing you for today's hearing?

Speaker1: [01:18:21] Like I said, Congressman, this is a high profile hearing. A lot of people around the world are sending me wishes and unsolicited advice, but I prepared for this hearing with my team here in DC.

Gerald: [01:18:31] Are you wouldn't it should be interesting. No. Yeah, they didn't. Yeah.

Brian Callen: [01:18:35] I have a question. Were there any Uighurs on that team?

Steven: [01:18:38] My get rid of them. If I had an eight I would say all signs point to no.

Brian Callen: [01:18:42] Okay. Because I like diversity.

Steven: [01:18:44] But here's something that people also need to understand though. Yeah. And of course, Uyghurs shouldn't be put, you know, in a in a prison. Uygur shouldn't be arrested. But here's the thing that China does understand, and you need to understand the motive there, which Americans are blind to. They are saying, hold on a second. Islam is not just a religion, it's a political prescription. And it is not compatible with a horrible political prescription. Right. The communist Chinese government, when Ben Carson said, hold on, I would say that the Koran and Sharia law is not compatible with the Constitution and American law, people said, how dare you say that that's racist. They understand that in order to preserve a culture wrongfully, by the way, because it's a communist culture, it's a terrible culture, but they understand that a religion that comes in and tells people how to subvert culture through a system of laws is a threat. Now, they're awful about it, these violations of human rights.

Speaker10: [01:19:32] That's why you have.

Steven: [01:19:32] People in the NBA who turn a blind eye to it. It's this it's this web of lies that they cannot possibly untangle because they say Islam is a Islam is just a religion like any other. No, it's not. Christianity is not a political system.

Speaker10: [01:19:44] And then they say in the Chinese government is great because they sell our jerseys will haunt us. And they're.

Steven: [01:19:48] Also now oppressing Muslims who you said we're.

Speaker10: [01:19:50] Not a problem. And you also attacked Ben Carson and conservatives for.

Steven: [01:19:53] Saying that Sharia law is not compatible with the Constitution. So which is it? I don't know. More money, please.

Speaker10: [01:19:57] More money, please. Money.

Gerald: [01:19:58] Yeah. Yeah. And you would allow people at a game in the United States of America to hold up a sign that says, I love LeBron, but you wouldn't allow them to hold up a sign that says Free the Uighurs or China's bad or anything like that. You actually removed their ability for free speech there in the United States.

Speaker10: [01:20:12] Hey, how popular is the NBA on TikTok? I bet you they have a.

Steven: [01:20:14] Profile, right? Can someone bring that up for us, the players and the the organization? That'd be interesting. Let's go back to Chu.

Speaker1: [01:20:20] Speaking does not allow illegal drugs on our platform.

Speaker10: [01:20:24] Just do in it. Do it in China.

Speaker1: [01:20:27] I believe they don't allow this, but I would need to check. I don't run that business. I can tell you TikTok does not allow this because.

Speaker10: [01:20:33] What we're concerned about and my guess and it would would do in allow for 41 days a threat against a member of the.

Gerald: [01:20:41] Chinese do. And that's the app in China that is like TikTok that is being used there. So he's asking them about it.

Speaker1: [01:20:46] I speak for Douyin and I'm sorry I didn't hear the second part of what you said.

Speaker10: [01:20:50] Well, we had a threat against the chairman of our committee that was on your side for 41 days. My guess is that would not be allowed in China.

Speaker1: [01:20:56] That content is is violative. I would look into the specifics about Winnie the Pooh. If it violates our guidelines, it'll be taken down on TikTok. Yeah, surely.

Speaker10: [01:21:04] Appears that it does. But the problem is that what I'm trying to get at is you seem to be able to prevent this content in China, but you so not even taking it down just to prevent it from being posted. And yet it's all it's on your website. So I have a couple of questions about you said earlier as soon as you find this is the first effective line of questioning I've seen. I know, right. So how quickly does your algorithm detect keywords or content that involve illicit drug trafficking before these posts are self-reported or used by others?

Speaker1: [01:21:31] We have about 40,000 people working on this now, together with the machines that we train. I don't think any company in our industry can be perfect at this. This is a real big challenge for our industry, but our goal is to get this any violative content, including illegal drugs, down to a very, very small number.

Speaker10: [01:21:48] This is the problem when we have these hearings. A pinch of cocaine. Yeah. Of your your colleagues and competitors. And we always hear apologies and we always hear we want to do better at this, but it just doesn't seem to keep improving. And we are hearing stories of our of our children. And obviously, there's been talked about he has a dog.

Steven: [01:22:05] In his fight, by the way, because Whoville has been ravaged by fentanyl.

Speaker10: [01:22:11] Related to illicit drugs or other controlled substances.

Speaker1: [01:22:14] Congressman. We do. Publish that in a transparency report. I can get my team to get the information to yours. Thank you.

Speaker10: [01:22:20] I appreciate that.

Steven: [01:22:21] Also, any follow ups, So I'll get it to you.

Brian Callen: [01:22:23] Here's the problem with all this. I think Americans have to take responsibility for a technology that has already been adapted, as you were talking about, by Facebook and all these American companies. Right. So the cat's out of the bag, genie's out of the bottle. So I do think that laying this all at China's doorstep, I know it's spyware, but I think we as Americans and parents have to take responsibility. No, you're right. It's like, hey, man, it's it's damaging technology. Yes, it's distracting. It's bad for you in every way. Maybe as bad as any drug you can think of. Yeah. You know, so so if we are creating a generation of addicts whose IQ for the first time in 100 years is. I call that DEFCON five, man. No. Which means, you know, and if you can lay and if these experts like Jonathan Haidt and this other woman are laying it at the at the TikTok, et cetera. Alter Then this is a national security threat. Yes.

Steven: [01:23:17] And here's the thing is, yes, you're right. American companies need to be held accountable. Should have taken a shirt off of that. But they're also following the leader. Right? China's leading the dance. Tiktok was the first one to do shorter and shorter and shorter. And so when a that's a problem. When you have the communist Chinese government and a company. Right. That has a vested interest and of course, forwarding the ideas, the I guess I should say the worldview of China sorry, what I meant to say is.

Speaker10: [01:23:39] Globalist.

Steven: [01:23:40] Institutional investor. Yeah, because that's not that's not a problem at all. When Americans say, let's follow your lead. American companies, right? We used to spearhead, we used to innovate. And instead they're saying, well, wait a second, China is a huge market, so we need to make sure that we're doing what it is that TikTok is doing. Yes, parents need to be responsible.

Brian Callen: [01:23:56] The genius of China. Yeah, they make you dependent. That's exactly what they're doing in Africa. That's what they're doing all over the world. They come in and go, We'll build your roads, man. We'll build your entire infrastructure. We are your friend, right? And then you become you become reliant on that. And that's exactly what's happened with the American economy. And if you're if you're John Cena, I'm telling you right now, the reason he had to apologize in Chinese was because they came to him and said, hey, dude, talk to Richard Gere. If you have any questions about where your career is about to go. Right. He he made one speech at the Oscars about Tibet and he never worked in a big film again. Yeah, that's exactly what happened to John Cena. They go, We can't make money, bro, unless you can sell this stuff to China. You're out of a job. Yeah, especially when it.

Gerald: [01:24:39] Sucks as bad as you know, the Fast and the Furious series.

Steven: [01:24:43] John Cena is not furious.

Brian Callen: [01:24:44] That's where I draw. That's the Rock. Yeah. No, no, no.

Gerald: [01:24:46] I know, but I thought John Cena was in that.

Speaker10: [01:24:48] John Cena is in it.

Speaker9: [01:24:49] Is he? Is he Dom's brother?

Steven: [01:24:51] Oh, really? Yeah. You know what?

Speaker10: [01:24:52] No, no, no, you're right. You're right. Hold on. We're both right.

Steven: [01:24:55] I couldn't see him. Oh, I see that.

Brian Callen: [01:24:57] I see that. For me. I'm sorry. I didn't see the movies. I read the books. I know. Good. Good books, too. I know. Yeah. Yeah. A lot to the imagination. Sorry, guys. I'm literary. You want me on the show? Dude, I get it. I get it. I bring an intellect. You are.

Steven: [01:25:13] A well-read.

Brian Callen: [01:25:14] Man. Different level of intellect to this show.

Steven: [01:25:16] Yeah, it is. Especially. It's always awful to read the descriptors of Ronda Rousey's stand in work.

Speaker10: [01:25:21] She can't imagine a book like.

Steven: [01:25:23] And then she said.

Speaker10: [01:25:24] You.

Steven: [01:25:25] Want some of this? And she smelled really bad. But you know what?

Gerald: [01:25:27] Just go watch the movie. She tried an arm bar and it didn't work.

Steven: [01:25:30] Is there anything else that they are bringing us in that we've missed or otherwise we can watch a little more? Or should we go to Rumble? I guess I didn't realize how long we've been doing.

Gerald: [01:25:35] Let's Go to Rumble. We've done So, guys.

Steven: [01:25:38] We are going to continue streaming this right now. Mug Club is free all month on Rumble and Fact check this live. We are also going to have there's no way we could do this on YouTube. Never. Our agent, Gay William, who is Cuban, he is gay. He is to the right of Attila the Hun. And don't get him started on Puerto Ricans, which means that we will. And Bryan Callen has been here. Bryan Callen. I guess you're not on the road this week, but it's Portland.

Brian Callen: [01:25:59] Portland, April, April 20th, 2122. Okay. And Gubbs Joak house, by the way, that'll be, I think, sometime at the end of April. By the way, don't.

Steven: [01:26:09] Plug that because I don't like the name. I don't like the Magpies joke house. It's right on there. Right on par with Regina, Saskatchewan. It's a little depressing. Hit the like button, Smash the Rumble button and if you are not already subscribed, you don't need to pay anything. Tomorrow. We are doing a show Friday where we will all be here 10 a.m. Eastern. But you got to go to lighthouse.com/mug club right now.

Speaker10: [01:26:26] Head on over to Rumble Gay. William can't do it here.

Gerald: [01:26:45] All right. We'll get William in here in just a second. But we're going to talk a little bit more about this. But Brian, you brought up a good point. Like you mentioned something about the generation and I talked about it a little bit as well. The the problem that we're going to have is we need an educated workforce. That's right. We need a very well educated workforce. That's one of the things that is very helpful as a country to be able to lead in technology and other industries in the future. And right now, what we have is a workforce that there are some questions about the high school kids, right? There are some very, very serious questions right now. That we know, we see test scores. We see problems already developing because of COVID, because of some of this short attention span stuff that we've been talking about. But we've got the rest of the kids that are in the school system right now. We have no idea how bad this could get for ten, 15, 20 years when these people are going into the workforce, when they're supposed to be the people that kind of take up the mantle and provide the labor, the ideas, the technologies that are going to sustain the economy in the future of this country, That's what's at stake. And I don't think a lot of people understand that. And that's why China's what's the way they're doing it.

Brian Callen: [01:27:46] What's at stake is not making good workers. What's at stake is creating incentive for innovative minds, letting people realize that there is there your potential is what matters and your potential and your risk and your energy and ingenuity will be rewarded. Right. And you have to create an incentive structure. And when you have an entire generation of boys, for example, that feel like they are the problem or that they are, they have benefited from the oppressive patriarchy, it kills your spirit before you get out of the gates. And it's also ready for this guy's a lie. And the problem with studying things like gender and stuff, there's nothing wrong with critical race theory. You know, everybody should have a right to be in college to study whatever it is they want. If you want to come out and not have a job, that's your that's fine. You know, that's how critical race theory.

Gerald: [01:28:44] All you want. You can still be an ass in this country.

Brian Callen: [01:28:47] That's right. Study gender studies and then you'll be you'll be I'll be like, I'll get can I get some whole milk with that double espresso? Only if you show.

Gerald: [01:28:56] Us your vagina.

Brian Callen: [01:28:56] That's it. That's it. Your front hall. Be honest. Be respectful. Gerald. Seriously. That's where I draw the line.

Gerald: [01:29:02] I apologize. I'm better than that. All right.

Brian Callen: [01:29:03] Any hole will do. Say, either say, say, say front hole or honeypot. Those are the two things that I think I refuse. All right.

Speaker10: [01:29:11] Fine. Come on. Come on.

Brian Callen: [01:29:12] Are you a conservative? No.

Gerald: [01:29:14] But you know what?

Brian Callen: [01:29:15] The problem is? That you've got to teach. See, we lose the idea of coming into contact with objective reality. Life is a kick in the nuts, and you're going to come into contact with objective reality or in the front hole. Thank you for being inclusive. And that's that's the kind of attitude I'm looking for out of you, young man. I appreciate it. Yeah. So anyway, back to Young, back to Regina, which is a great town.

Gerald: [01:29:38] No, but look, you brought up a really good point. I'm. I'm an entrepreneur. I'm trying. I said we need the entrepreneurial spirit. You said if white guys right now, specifically men, but specifically white male children right now are told to sit down and shut up, you're racist. You're wrong. Well, you.

Brian Callen: [01:29:52] Occupy an oppressive box, right? Exactly. The culture. To be an.

Gerald: [01:29:55] Entrepreneur, you have to have kind of a thought on something that's different. You have to go against the advice of a lot of other people, especially sometimes people that are in positions of authority and power and are supposed to be the experts. That is.

Brian Callen: [01:30:08] The strength of.

Gerald: [01:30:08] This country, myself. And if you kill that, you're killing the entrepreneurial spirit of the country.

Brian Callen: [01:30:14] That's right. And you've got to and here's the other secret that was also.

Steven: [01:30:17] Hillary Clinton's nickname in college was oppressive box.

Gerald: [01:30:19] Oh, I thought you meant box.

Speaker10: [01:30:22] I thought you meant you remember it.

Steven: [01:30:23] You just said it. But yeah. No.

Gerald: [01:30:25] No, no. I thought it was kill that. I thought that was her nickname.

Brian Callen: [01:30:28] Yes. All right. That's great.

Steven: [01:30:29] Well, with her oppressive box. Right.

Gerald: [01:30:31] Oh, wow. Wow.

Brian Callen: [01:30:32] I call it. I call it the spiky cage. Yes. Yeah.

Steven: [01:30:35] Or where dreams go to die.

Brian Callen: [01:30:36] Where dreams go to die.

Speaker10: [01:30:38] Or you.

Brian Callen: [01:30:39] Just missed a.

Steven: [01:30:40] Gem where dreams and soldiers go to die. Right. As Hillary Clinton's oppressive box. What? What?

Gerald: [01:30:45] Jen, hit it one more time.

Brian Callen: [01:30:47] I can't find my piece.

Speaker10: [01:30:49] What a hole. Oh, good for you.

Steven: [01:30:53] Hey, guys, This is.

Brian Callen: [01:30:55] What are we, 12?

Steven: [01:30:56] Yes. In spirit. Yeah, well, it's too much Tik tok. And plus I got the red tide. It's not.

Brian Callen: [01:31:01] Amazing. Look how shiny my skin is. I should sell product, I'm saying. Or mug club.

Speaker10: [01:31:06] Where I thought.

Steven: [01:31:07] That you did a.

Brian Callen: [01:31:07] Product I serum by Brian Cowan.

Speaker10: [01:31:09] Do you sell high serum?

Steven: [01:31:10] I got some. Let me guess. It's just retinol and cetaphil.

Speaker10: [01:31:14] Yeah.

Steven: [01:31:15] Slap your name on it. All right. You guys want. Do we want to. Oh, they have some stern key facts right now on on NBA. Actually, I guess we're just sent in. Oh, yeah, that's right. Regarding the NBA and TikTok, because they don't. Oh, damn it.

Speaker10: [01:31:26] I just.

Steven: [01:31:27] I just put on hand sanitizer and it.

Speaker10: [01:31:28] Didn't dry.

Steven: [01:31:29] And I scratched my nose and it stings because this is where all the mucous membranes are near there. So it's a sensitive skin. It's your t zone.

Brian Callen: [01:31:35] Is that your T zone? There's some fentanyl in there. It'll make your eyes look sleepy. So that's. That's bedroom eyes.

Steven: [01:31:40] Yeah. Well, as long as long as when I die, it'll take him four hours to wipe the smile from my face.

Brian Callen: [01:31:46] Especially because I'll be busy with my hands. My hands. Because I know, guys. I'm just saying I work with my hands. Hands, hands. He works with his hands.

Steven: [01:31:54] Yeah, well, we have went to trade school. Yeah.

Speaker9: [01:31:56] The NBA has 19 million followers on TikTok.

Speaker10: [01:32:00] Oh, it's pronounced Marion.

Gerald: [01:32:02] Marion American.

Speaker9: [01:32:04] 19, a marion. Marion. And then the Chinese lane centers in. The Chinese foreign minister addressed NBA fans on Chinese New Year.

Gerald: [01:32:15] Oh, really?

Speaker10: [01:32:16] Good for him.

Steven: [01:32:17] Do we have a clip?

Speaker10: [01:32:17] Oh, yeah. Today.

Speaker13: [01:32:19] I'm glad to join you again in celebrating the Chinese New Year. I wish the Chinese and American people a prosperous new Year of the rabbit.

[01:32:29] And a bright future. Good luck to everyone and.

Brian Callen: [01:32:34] Enjoy the game. He looks natural.

Speaker10: [01:32:36] Yeah, it's a talking wooden board. I mean.

Steven: [01:32:40] Thank God Joe Louis kills rabbits. Yeah.

Speaker10: [01:32:44] I'm sorry. It's so.

Steven: [01:32:45] Silly. I'm so people. Look, I can say this on Rumble, the Eastern religion, the mysticism is as silly as the martial arts. The kung fu, and the most.

Brian Callen: [01:32:54] Pronounced kung fu is pronounced gongfu.

Steven: [01:32:56] That's right. That's right. Because they want to mix. They always want a reason to correct Americans. They respect.

Brian Callen: [01:33:01] We correct.

Speaker10: [01:33:02] We correct. We correct your speaking because our country is a shithole. So we have to take a small win. Where can get where can get gong for gong for no work, no work, no work. Get ass kick horribly. But gong Fu you say gung fu. So this is.

Steven: [01:33:16] It doesn't work their entire culture people say, oh, I'm really into Eastern religions. Okay. What does that mean? Do you mean the Eastern religions that have led to successful societies like Take your pick China. You can even take your pick As far as Japan, when you talk about people who are who are there are good people, but they're they're godless or they're lost. You look at the suicide rate that is through the roof. And by the way, you see that transitioning happening, that transition happening here in the United States as we lose our way. This idea, the reason that a lot of people in the states like to say, actually, I'm into tantric yoga, which is basically a sex trick that doesn't work. I know. Believe me, I tried. And don't bother looking anyway.

Brian Callen: [01:33:50] Because you didn't mix karate in. I didn't mix karate. You have to always miss karate. Yeah, Karate gets me super horny, so I always do some katas. And then from there you go into tantra, right?

Steven: [01:34:01] But it also gets you domestic abuse charges. So you got to be careful. That is the biggest problem. It's a double edged sword, just like my registered weapons.

Speaker10: [01:34:08] Good job.

Brian Callen: [01:34:09] Good chops, bro.

Steven: [01:34:10] A good chops. I know. God, that would.

Brian Callen: [01:34:11] Hurt my yoke, right? Yeah.

Steven: [01:34:13] And so this is, you.

Speaker10: [01:34:14] Know, this is the idea.

Steven: [01:34:15] It's this culture where they can defeat 19 people with one hand tied behind their back and crawl up trees. Crouching Tiger. But, you know, turn signals, evade them. But here's the thing that also happens.

Speaker10: [01:34:26] You know, that guy had a driver.

Steven: [01:34:28] Otherwise there would be 19 people who were mowed down Pennsylvania Avenue this morning. I don't know. But it's it's it's all about the show. This is what it is. It's all about the show. It's about the spectacle. It's about the look, how moral look how successful our society is. It really is the term paper tiger really should apply almost exclusively to them. It's a broken society. It's not something to mimic in any way. And by the way, I'm not saying that Chinese people are bad. They have been led. They have been led through a system of corrupt government. And yes, in ism, when people say, I just take every idea on an individual basis, man, guess what? That's dumb. You want to take every single issue and you want to evaluate it on an individual basis, but you need to have a lens through which you see it. And if you don't have any kind of a lens, guess what? Communism isn't an overarching theme that you need to be concerned with is I look at the individual issue, man, and that's I have people who claim to be free speech advocates, but they support Bernie Sanders, who.

Speaker10: [01:35:23] Honeymooned in the USSR.

Gerald: [01:35:26] Not in a good time.

Steven: [01:35:28] You do need to have a worldview and China's worldview. Their vision for the world is bad. It's evil and it's evil to subjugate their people.

Speaker10: [01:35:37] And we certainly shouldn't.

Steven: [01:35:38] Be following them off the cliff like the very tiny lemmings that they are.

Brian Callen: [01:35:42] But I think that's I think you're making a really good point. And to draw a distinction, China and those societies always put the state and and the body of people as a whole over the individual, of course. And this country was founded on the idea that the individual is protected from the majority.

Steven: [01:36:02] But even more important than the individual, the family, that's something people don't understand.

Brian Callen: [01:36:06] That's 100% true.

Steven: [01:36:07] It was. This is why when people talk about marriage laws and I understand I don't want the church in the in the the government sorry, in the church running business. But before you had national governance, state governance, municipal governance, and before you even had self-governance, you had the nuclear family. That was the form of governance. And that is why there has been a systematic attack and eroding of the family, just like you talked about right now. Hey, where are the parents? Where are the dads? I see girls walking around in shorts that you would that would be considered revealing on a beach. Right. And I see 14 year old girls and I see a dad walking with girls will be girls because he's on TikTok. I'm going. Hold on a second, man. That's your daughter. That's your daughter. It's your job. And China also understands that. And so that's why they allow the kind of content like you see on there with that weird tranny clown. And I mean that that weird genderqueer clown saying, I set up a Patreon so you can talk with me privately. Your parents don't know. I know. And then and then the government wants the public schools to be able to take them into a counseling office and say, Hey, hey, hey, Do you have a problem at home? Are your parents abusive? Are they.

Speaker10: [01:37:07] Saying are they.

Steven: [01:37:08] Are your parents abusive? Do they tell you that your cock and balls make you a boy? Because we can call Child Protective Services. The cock and balls don't make you a boy. We have puberty blockers. We can fix that. We can?

Brian Callen: [01:37:16] Because that's because you're talking about category. The the Maoist erased the idea of category. Right? It's why if you said they were all wearing the same uniform and boys and girls had the same haircut because categories were that's how you create classes. That's how you create that binary idea. Right? Oh, you're always going to favor a male or a female yin or yang or whatever it might be. So keeping categories. And so now what you get and that's what's so insidious is you go, I'm a woman, so watch this. I'm a woman. Ask me how because I feel like a woman. So now a woman or a man is a feeling, which then means I can if I feel like going into a woman's locker room and I have a beard and a cock. Sorry, penis. Sorry, Gerald. Come on, man. That's a good.

Steven: [01:38:02] Point. It's all about you feel.

Brian Callen: [01:38:04] I feel Now, now, now. If I. If I feel like a pervert. But a straight guy and I go in there, I'm going to get arrested. But if I feel like a woman. So now it just becomes about the words. Yeah. And so there's no way logically to follow this. No, there's no way to undergird a society like that.

Steven: [01:38:21] Especially if you ban the kind of commentary that might be, I guess, sort of counteracting that from parents that. Hold on a second. And by the way, if that's all it is. Reason, logic. Yes. Yeah. And boy, Shania Twain was ahead of her time.

Gerald: [01:38:35] Well, one thing I want to make a point. Don't look at this hearing and see Democrats and just look at what you said. Even though that's 100% true, these guys don't really make a point. Their anger and frustration is that somebody's got the power before them. This is not they want to get the power out of Big tech's hands. They want more. I remember when Facebook had hearings and we were like, oh, finally they're holding hearings and the Democrats were leading. And it was, we want more censorship. We want more disinformation and misinformation taken off without discussing who's defining it. Democrats want to control big tech. They want to control you through big tech. Republicans want big tech to just let you do what rumble does, Speak freely as long as you're not breaking the law, period. Done. Yep.

Steven: [01:39:19] And then we'll we'll go to chat Thursday. But I also want to see in the chat you guys want us to keep doing. It's going to be repetitive. Or do you want gay William to come in but oh gay. William Yeah, I think people want to have gay, gay. William He's got his Gucci bag. That's a good point that you make. Look, this is going to be something and just go with me here for a second. This is going to seem self-aggrandizing, and the only reason I get my name is on the sign, right? So sometimes it is relevant because it is relevant in the media landscape and we experience some things that I experience personally. So they had new media summits. Remember, they had these where they said, we're bringing out the most influential, you know, conservatives and we're going to hear their grievances. Okay, I was never invited. Now I know what you're saying. You're saying hold on a second. That's a little bit you're thinking, okay, so let's say there are other people within striking distance. Sure. I understand Ben Shapiro being there or someone from. I get that. I understand Glenn Beck being there. Okay. And many of you will say, well, you know, a lot of the credit has not made the same kind of impact as you can. Let's argue that. Okay. But let's go down the list. Do you think it might be more relevant to have the largest conservative program show that exists over diamond and or silk? You go down the list, you keep going down the list and you have people who maybe had 60,000 followers who maybe could put together 100,000 views on a show.

Steven: [01:40:34] And they had summit after summit after summit. Susan Wojcicki had a meeting with the big conservative influencers and companies, and our invite consistently got lost in the mail again. You can start with the top, but you go down the list and I don't say this I don't want to insult anybody because I'm not saying these people aren't worthy. I'm not saying their content isn't worthy, but I'm talking about the impact and the size. What they do is in the dark and in the shadows. Is Demonetized and Shadow banned what we do and create new policies? And then it's this political it's this kabuki theater of, look, we have whoever it is, we have a Tucker Carlson here, we have Tomi Lahren, we have diamond and silk. We have this guy from Twitter. We've never been there ever. We've never been invited. And I'd like to have a seat at that table and have some input. I don't know. I don't want to say that, you know, they're ducking me, champ. That's not what you would think it might be. Hey, more than Rick Wilson.

Speaker10: [01:41:27] It's like.

Steven: [01:41:27] Bill Maher. Bill Maher.

Brian Callen: [01:41:28] I actually think I really believe that. I think that humor and satire and somebody as quick as you are is rather intimidating because they don't speak that language. And the problem is when you have somebody who's funny, it takes all the light away because human beings like to laugh. You mark your life that way. How many times have you laughed in your life and you get a guy like that who's been doing this for as long as you have since 2006? That's a little that's a little scary. They never.

Steven: [01:42:00] Do it. They never do it. And then when we talk with senators and congressmen and we sign NDAs behind the scenes and provide them with evidence of YouTube, clearly being a publisher, not a platform, they go, Oh my God, is this real? We say, Yeah, it's real. Yeah. You believe your lying eyes believe what you're reading. They go, Oh, then there's a hearing and they grandstand and they look at their notes and nothing gets done. A good example of this. Look, you've heard me say this for a very long time. Nick DiPaolo. Okay. Nick DiPaolo I think for me, he's my favorite stand comedian, my favorite comedy album of all time is Another Senseless Killing. Okay, He's about as rough as you get. You won't find a single comedian who says that Nick DiPaolo is a hacker, that he's not among the best. He's awesome. He's unbelievable. One of the best. And he's he's always been this guy. This is why we were so excited about bringing him underneath the umbrella, because he's always been this guy. And we'll show you some old clips of him on Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn, the balls that this guy had and his career suffered as a result of it. By the way, Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher before he has his show right now. And again, never appeared on that show. Bill Maher has asked me to do his podcast many times, where the viewership is anywhere from 30,000 to 3 million depending on the guest, never on the show. I went through the booking screener on the show and then they said, No, it's not going to work.

Steven: [01:43:08] But here's something else. Bill Maher had a show on ABC called Politically Incorrect, and he used to have this right. He used to have this. It wasn't really a panel. It was like four seats, I think. And he would always have a comedian there, at least one, if not two. And then he would have some political strategists and he would have writers Politically Incorrect. So the ideal guest for this program would be a comedian who says things that would be politically incorrect. I'm 99% sure Nick DiPaolo was never on that show. Patrice O'Neal was never on that show. Joe Rogan was on once and they never had him back. So you do have to ask if you are hosting a show Politically Incorrect and you're a comedian, the host, why aren't you having the best political comedians and certainly the most politically incorrect? You do have to look at it. I'm not saying when people say controlled opposition, that's often they mean some kind of crazy grand conspiracy where there are these people being propped up who are fake conservative. That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is that you have people on the left who select their opponents for the theater of the fight, and they always keep people who are dangerous away from them. And those people get harmed in the shadows. And that's what we're so excited about with Mug Club. You look at Jim Brewer, you're not going to find a single person in comedy who's going to say that Jim Brewer is a hack.

Steven: [01:44:18] Everyone knows he's one of the best storytellers of the best, the best ever. And he talks about vaccines. Boom. He gets banned, he gets throttled, and no one really hears about, hey, he's not necessarily going to be on Bill Maher's show. I don't know if he is. I don't know if he has been. But these are the guys who you should be having on. No, no. Instead, we'll have another pundit. Instead, we'll have someone who claims to be a comedian who's really a panelist at Fox News. This happens all the time. So look for the people whose words, whose inspiration, who's whose actions get silenced that you're never told about because they don't have the backing of some giant network, because they don't have the because they haven't been chosen or coronated to be the ambassador again. Kevin McCarthy. Paul Ryan If we go political, Mitt Romney, Lindsey Graham, Mitch McConnell, these people represent you. And do you feel represented on shows like whether it's Bill Maher, whether it's Colbert or even at these hearings, why aren't they bringing out the people who you choose to follow and you choose to watch? They want to tell you who it is you can follow and you can watch. And that brings us to someone who actually we follow and we've been talking about this for a long time. I just hope he is exactly how he is off air because. Oh, he has to. Oh, my word. This is our agent. He. He is Cuban, he is Latino, he is gay. And he is.

Speaker10: [01:45:31] He would make.

Steven: [01:45:32] Genghis Khan sing. Oh, this man's a little extreme. It's time to talk with gay William Gay.

Speaker10: [01:45:41] If you want your identity.

Steven: [01:45:42] Hidden, Gable.

Speaker10: [01:45:43] Put the bag on before you're on air. Hold on. Don't show the. No, no, I'm not taking. All right. There you go.

Steven: [01:45:48] Okay. All right. There we go. We can see I don't have the mic.

Gerald: [01:45:50] Oh, are you good? They got you.

Speaker10: [01:45:51] We got.

Brian Callen: [01:45:53] That bag. Really? Brings out your.

Steven: [01:45:54] Mouth. Yeah, because Gay William was like, I don't want people to know who I am, so.

Brian Callen: [01:45:58] Right. So he's going. He's going to. He's going to wear a portable glory hole.

Speaker10: [01:46:01] Yes, exactly. It's one it's just a few dollars.

Steven: [01:46:05] Shy in the budget of the Little Rascals trench coat.

Brian Callen: [01:46:08] We're already objectifying the man. And he's Cuban.

Steven: [01:46:12] Gay. William. How are you, sir?

Speaker10: [01:46:13] I'm good, thank you. How are you? I'm good. Don't be so formal. Just be. Be, be. Be yourself. You said.

Steven: [01:46:18] Earlier, you said you're going to bring me in when you're showing that crazy tranny TikTok.

Speaker10: [01:46:21] Thing. My mouth is wet right here. For some reason. I can.

Brian Callen: [01:46:24] I can I can help you with that.

Speaker10: [01:46:26] Okay. Thank you, Gerald.

Steven: [01:46:27] So, William, tell people about your background a little bit.

Speaker10: [01:46:30] Well, I'm gay. Oh, wow. That's the one thing that we knew even through the bag last night. I felt like a woman.

Brian Callen: [01:46:38] Just kidding. His mouth is not. His mouth is still wet. Gerald, give me that. That. That mouth cloth.

Speaker10: [01:46:45] Yes, it is. It is the portable glory hole. You said. It's a little bit. It's a little bit.

Steven: [01:46:50] It's been starched.

Speaker10: [01:46:50] So I'm from Cuba. Born in Cuba? Yeah. We came to the United.

Speaker7: [01:46:55] States.

Speaker10: [01:46:56] When I was three months old. Yeah. And I hate all liberals. Okay. Cuba. Cuba.

Brian Callen: [01:47:01] There you go. Being born in Cuba will kick the communists right out of you. Yeah.

Speaker10: [01:47:04] Yeah, definitely. That was enough. Well, let's. Because you were getting.

Steven: [01:47:08] Fired up earlier. Let's. If we can bring that clip again of that that trans tiktoker. Yeah. To get William's opinions on this. Let's see here Gay William I think we have this clip which hopefully you can still see. Let's roll it.

Speaker10: [01:47:19] I want to.

Speaker1: [01:47:20] Talk to the kids. Hey, kids.

Speaker9: [01:47:23] Hi, kids. Hey, kids.

Speaker10: [01:47:24] I hate it so much.

Speaker16: [01:47:26] It's screwed up.

Speaker10: [01:47:29] Okay. Liza minnelli.

Speaker1: [01:47:31] So that's why I made a Patreon so that we could talk about. Oh, God. So we could connect.

Brian Callen: [01:47:38] In a way. I don't know why people hate gays. This is. I can't. I have to go back to the People's Republic of Los Angeles. Guys, I cannot be part of this. They're going to turn me back at the airport.

Steven: [01:47:49] You know exactly what's coming down the pike. So I'm just going to listen.

Speaker10: [01:47:52] Gay William, what is it that bothers you so much about the trans thing? Because you're a gay man. Yeah, because I like men. Jeez, Harriet, how does a trans thing affect you? Oh.

Speaker6: [01:48:05] Well, let's see.

Speaker10: [01:48:08] Uh, they're the biggest idiot. Well, hold on a second. Let me tell you everything you need to know about trans people. Just watch. Silence of the Lamb. That'll tell you everything you need to know. I don't necessarily know.

Steven: [01:48:18] That that's, you know, like a documentary, right?

Speaker10: [01:48:21] I think it is. Are you suggesting that there's a higher.

Steven: [01:48:23] Degree of mental illness in the.

Speaker10: [01:48:25] Lgbtq? Oh, I don't know. Can we put her. Can we put that back on TV and see what. And see and judge for yourself? I mean, no, there's nothing wrong with that. That's perfectly normal. Well, you.

Speaker12: [01:48:36] Also you talked.

Speaker10: [01:48:37] About this like.

Steven: [01:48:37] You've been you've been gay. You knew it probably your whole life because, you know, you probably tuned in and you were a bigger fan of like, the captain on Gilligan's Island.

Speaker10: [01:48:45] And you talked about.

Steven: [01:48:47] How you never intended it to be something like it wasn't a lifestyle that was being marketed towards children, which is a big shift now with the trans thing.

Speaker10: [01:48:54] No one told me to be gay. No one sat there. And is that what the question is? No one asked me. No one was trying to teach me how to be gay or to.

Speaker6: [01:49:02] Love.

Speaker10: [01:49:03] Men. I found that out on my own very, very early on. Yeah. And and not that anybody discriminated against me because I've never. I'm 56 years old, never been discriminated against as a gay man ever. That hard to believe. No one. The only time.

Speaker6: [01:49:17] I feel discriminated now.

Speaker10: [01:49:18] Is I was literally walking down the street from my house. I lived in a gay neighborhood, shocking and shocking twice. This happened last year. A guy was driving down by himself in the car and yelled, Faggot. I was like, I agree, but what do you mean you agree? Because you're just because stuff is being shoved down people's throats so much. It's like, who.

Gerald: [01:49:42] Gives a No pun intended. Yeah.

Brian Callen: [01:49:44] Guys. Gerald, please. God, you're right. Man is talking.

Speaker10: [01:49:47] Who cares that your that you want to dress as a woman. Keep it to yourself. Who cares? Go out and do whatever you want. Don't shove it down our kids throats. Don't teach it in school. Don't make it seem like I have to love who you are. Who gives a shit? No. No one cares about me as an individual. Everybody leaves me alone. I leave people alone. Don't shove all this stuff down our.

Steven: [01:50:10] Yeah, down our throats. Well, I know, I know you're trying to avoid all the puns because it's always a layup, but everyone here cares about you as an individual, William. Everyone here loves.

Speaker10: [01:50:16] You, Homo. I've never felt. I've never not felt loved by anybody in this room or in general. Right.

Brian Callen: [01:50:24] Wait till the cameras go dead. Yeah.

Speaker10: [01:50:28] Gerald, Keep your.

Steven: [01:50:29] Keep your towel, keep your quit you. But what do you. What do you think? Because you've talked with me about this, too. Like it also, by the way. So you're attracted to men?

Speaker10: [01:50:36] Very much so.

Steven: [01:50:38] And you'll get this on your apps now, which used to be, you know, places for gay adult men. So like a dating app with gay men now might not be what it used to be.

Speaker10: [01:50:46] Yeah. No, anybody can go to Grindr and just look. Yeah. 90% of it is trannies. Yeah. So. And that doesn't do it for you. Oh, gross. Um, let's just put it this way. I go on Grindr because I'm looking for men. Yeah. Not for. Not for tits, fake tits and men with nail polish and long nails. Yeah. And heels. Is that a turnoff? Heels and nail polish. I can look at my mom for that.

Brian Callen: [01:51:17] Although if you are in jail.

Speaker10: [01:51:19] Yeah, Yeah, exactly. For me, I haven't been to jail yet, but is that what happened? Well.

Brian Callen: [01:51:24] I want my. I want my cellmate in hot if he's in high heels and had nails and lipstick. In fact, I prefer that if Steven.

Speaker10: [01:51:30] Brian a half heels in my car if you want if you're interested. Yeah. Well that's by the way, take that bag off.

Steven: [01:51:36] They're attached to a body so it's not just healed in the car.

Brian Callen: [01:51:40] No. Keep the bag on, but make sure you shave that face. Yes. I can't stand whiskers.

Steven: [01:51:44] But here's the thing. You also so not just the trans state, but you've been conservative pretty much your whole life, Right? It wasn't like that was a transition since birth. Okay. And what is it that makes you more conservative.

Speaker10: [01:51:53] Since birth now?

Steven: [01:51:55] Well, because people would say you're gay, you're Latino. Obviously, demographically, you shouldn't be conservative.

Speaker10: [01:51:59] Because I'm smart. I have a brain. Okay. But what is it about.

Steven: [01:52:03] The left that aggravates you so much?

Speaker10: [01:52:05] Turn on the TV. Just one.

Brian Callen: [01:52:09] One word, one phrase answers.

Speaker10: [01:52:11] They're disgusting.

Steven: [01:52:12] And what about the what about the trans thing is that aggravates you so much when you're when you're looking at this on TikTok?

Speaker10: [01:52:17] Because, again, why why is this all being shoved down people's throats? I mean, it's this is so disgusting. Who cares? Just leave us. It's like I almost feel like I'm being attacked by trainees and like all these people all the all day long because they want us to accept who they are. It's not like no one doesn't accept you. It's just leave us alone. Yeah, well, but here's the thing.

Steven: [01:52:39] But it also did sort of. Right stem from it was the gay community did the drag show first You've always drag drag queen shows.

Speaker10: [01:52:45] I've been a drag queen a couple of times. Okay. But explain to me how that was different from today, because it was funny. Okay? It wasn't serious. It was ha ha ha. Look, silly. She's he's wearing makeup now. It's like every day getting on, putting on makeup and heels and stockings and. I mean, what the was a joke.

Gerald: [01:53:05] Were there any kids at your shows?

Steven: [01:53:06] Were the kids at drag shows?

Speaker10: [01:53:07] Oh, gross. Exactly right. See, does anybody does anybody know it's called the bar. It's 21 and over.

Brian Callen: [01:53:13] Yeah, but does anybody get a sense? So if you're gay, most of the science suggests that you're born gay and you're gay and you always felt that way and you got you became attracted to men. My thing with the trans movement is I don't quite buy it. I think it's vanishingly rare for people to have gender dysphoria. Yes. And that's a real thing. And but and if you're an adult and you want me to call you something, I will. I'm not going to I'm not going to be cruel to you or anything like that. But I don't quite buy it. I don't buy the movement. I don't buy that there are that many people who are trans. I certainly don't buy the fact that there are these children that know what their gender is. They might be feminine when they're young and then they become gay men. Yeah, but I think it's it's.

Steven: [01:53:53] Well, let me ask you, when you were young, because now they're talking about this, that a huge percentage of people who may just be gay are being convinced they were trans. Do you think when you were young that maybe would have been a risk if you were young today that someone would have tried to say, oh, actually you're trans because you're pretty feminine?

Speaker10: [01:54:07] No, I don't think I don't. Back then it wasn't it wasn't a thing. It wasn't. I mean, you still I mean, even as a kid living in New York, you saw a lot of Puerto Ricans that dressed like women. Okay. Why Puerto.

Steven: [01:54:16] Ricans? What? Why? Why Puerto Ricans?

Speaker10: [01:54:20] I don't know. They feel they're so ugly. They feel the need to put a lot of makeup on. This is. Oh, I'm just kidding. Well, but hold on a second. You do have a you don't like Puerto Ricans very much. Is that a Cuban thing? Well, I was raised in New York in the 70 seconds, so they were hated by everybody in the 70 seconds in New York.

Brian Callen: [01:54:36] Can I get a bag for my face, please?

Steven: [01:54:38] Why were they hated by why were Puerto Ricans hated by everybody in the 70.

Speaker10: [01:54:41] Seconds in New York? They were a thorn, everybody's side. How? Because they were violent or the gangs. They were the ones you had to be scared of. And I'm not kidding. This was, as a kid in the 70 seconds in New York, it was all about it was all about Puerto Ricans and and and how scary it was to go out on the streets. There were gangs. I mean, it was just a it was a really bad situation.

Brian Callen: [01:54:59] Let's take a moment for a second for a public service announcement. What happened was a lot of Puerto Ricans came over and all the manufacturing jobs, jobs left Manhattan and went south so people had no jobs. Keep going.

Steven: [01:55:09] Yes, keep. But so you were a falsely identified as a Puerto Rican when you were young, when you were a Cuban American?

Speaker10: [01:55:13] No. Well, the public school system, they're so smart. So when I was in New York, my last name being Latin, I was a Puerto Rican. And then I moved to Los Angeles in elementary school and having a Latin last name. Yeah, the teachers thought I was Mexican. Oh, really? I neither look like a Puerto Rican because I'm good looking. Nor do I look like a mexican because I'm not dark.

Steven: [01:55:38] Okay, wait. You just suggested that Puerto Ricans are not good looking.

Speaker10: [01:55:43] There's two Jennifer Lopez and Ricky Martin. The I think that's not something we can verify.

Steven: [01:55:49] I think there are more good looking Puerto Ricans and to the same person. Yeah, well, it is. Yeah. There are more good looking Puerto Ricans than to. So what would you by the way, let me ask you this, gay William, who is who would be your candidate here for election in 2024? Who do you like now?

Speaker10: [01:56:03] Without a doubt. Trump.

Steven: [01:56:05] You still so even more because I know you spent time in Florida, but you still would rather have Trump than DeSantis.

Speaker10: [01:56:10] Oh, hell yeah. Was that anti Trump Four more years just to clean everything up?

Steven: [01:56:14] Okay. And what would you like to see cleaned up the most?

Speaker10: [01:56:18] Let's get rid of the tranny. Okay. All right. All right. Okay. This has been gay, William. Everybody, this has been.

Brian Callen: [01:56:22] Racist in a paper bag. Gay.

Speaker10: [01:56:24] William Let's stinger him out. This is going to. Yeah. Well, thank you for getting the camera.

Steven: [01:56:33] Otherwise, people would have seen him. Yeah.

Brian Callen: [01:56:35] That's the end of the show, guys.

Steven: [01:56:36] And by the way, that's permanent.

Speaker10: [01:56:38] That's gay, William. What? We didn't see him. No, we didn't see him.

Steven: [01:56:42] That's gay. That's subdued. Gay. William. You know that.

Speaker10: [01:56:44] Brian Yeah, I think listen.

Steven: [01:56:47] Because people.

Brian Callen: [01:56:48] Plausible deniability. I don't know anything. So TikTok is.

Speaker10: [01:56:52] Yeah, that's. Come on when I look.

Brian Callen: [01:56:54] For you have some.

Steven: [01:56:55] Balls when I do standup I'll have I have about 15 minutes just on he talks and I go, okay, right. All porygons are ugly. And I go up and people go, People go, You know, that's just using. Just doing a gay voice doesn't give you cover to say horrendous things. I'm like, Believe me, I'm softening it. Yes.

Brian Callen: [01:57:10] You are definitely softening. Softening it.

Steven: [01:57:12] I've never met anyone as harsh and.

Gerald: [01:57:14] Also not true. Using a gay voice gives you tons of cover to say.

Speaker10: [01:57:18] It absolutely does.

Steven: [01:57:19] Oh, not anymore. But he just. Yeah. Gay. William, I've never met anyone as Bill, and he can kind of get away with it. But he can't get away with that. No, he doesn't have enough of a No one has a pass for that. That's true. Yeah. All right. Yeah.

Speaker10: [01:57:30] Well, Brian, you saw the.

Steven: [01:57:32] You saw the ride. You bought a ticket. Anyway, it's time to go to you for chat Thursday. Chat? That's okay. You don't have to. You have to go to the bathroom. No, no, no. Chat Thursday. I'll kind of clear the palate. And again, this is all free. Clear the palate.

Gerald: [01:57:48] It's all something.

Steven: [01:57:49] Passive. It's all free this month if you are watching on Rumble. But tomorrow you have to go to credit.com/mug club because the way it works, there's communities and that's the only way they do this sort of paywall content. You're not going to have to pay, but we're not streaming on this channel because we'll explain kind of the vision where everyone's going to have their channel. This channel on Rumble is just for this show.

Gerald: [01:58:07] If you haven't signed up for an account there, like by clicking ladder clatter, dot com slash mug club going there and signing up, then you won't be able to access it. You can do it for free right now. Go do it. Yeah, watch it.

Steven: [01:58:17] And by the way, just so you know, you know gay William, he is my agent. He gets a commission, obviously, as I make a living like he has. All kidding aside, that guy has stepped out on a limb. That's why he doesn't want his face to be revealed, because he still has clients in the entertainment industry who are not conservative. But he is ecstatic about the fact that he can actually be working with people who he thinks are making an impact. Sometimes he gets he gets so he gets so emotional. He's like, Steven, Yeah.

Speaker10: [01:58:41] You are saving the country. I just and.

Steven: [01:58:43] I'm not just I'm like.

Speaker10: [01:58:44] William, I'm not saving the country. Yes, you are. I know. Yes, you are. Brian helps, but he's not there yet.

Brian Callen: [01:58:50] But the only thing is he does. He does smell a little bit like a burning cross. Anybody got that? No. There is.

Speaker10: [01:58:55] A sulfur.

Steven: [01:58:56] Is there a sulfur? That's just because he always has Paltrow candles in his pocket. Okay.

Brian Callen: [01:59:00] I thought that might have been Alex Jones chem trails.

Steven: [01:59:02] But no, no, no. It's. Oh, oppressive box.

Brian Callen: [01:59:04] Is that better than spiky? Spiky cage? Yes, exactly. Which is the new scent coming out of Hillary Clinton's.

Steven: [01:59:11] Yeah. And co-promotion with Balenciaga.

Speaker10: [01:59:15] All right, let's grab some let's grab some chats.

Steven: [01:59:17] And Bryan Callen, of course, is going to be in Portland April 20th. That's my dad's.

Brian Callen: [01:59:21] Right. And we're not mentioning Maggie's joke house, which will be at the end of April. Bryan callen.com Just go to just anyway, Bryan.

Steven: [01:59:28] Callen.com, by the way, one of the best in the biz. If you go see Bryan live, he's I mean, he's been doing this forever. He's hysterical. Okay, let's grab some chat.

Speaker9: [01:59:35] All right. First chat from CR DeLay. How do we bring up this up to the family members that allow their children to spend all their time on TikTok? How do we point out to them that it's as dangerous and has already started to affect the child?

Gerald: [01:59:47] Gerald Really easy. Just show them some of the content available on TikTok for their child to see and be like, Are you sure that this is okay? Yeah. How about this? How about this? How about this?

Steven: [01:59:55] And that's the failure of the church we were talking about yesterday because they go, well, I can't show it. I can't show them.

Speaker10: [02:00:00] This show because you.

Steven: [02:00:01] Guys said cock have you context over content. And by the way, are you showing your congregation conservative leaders. Right. And Christian leaders, are you showing right now at this hearing? Right now, they should be showing the Buffalo Bill dancing in the mirror type videos They should be showing going. Is this a is this age appropriate? Because the left.

Speaker10: [02:00:18] They go, oh, it's age.

Steven: [02:00:19] Appropriate. There were no one in there were no one in panties at this drag show. And then you see on social media that kids are stuffing dollar bills in their crotchless panties, which is basically fruit roll up. It's a stupid I don't know why people buy it. It's a gimmick. Just go buy some fruit, roll up and just get yourself a pair of scissors. But here's what they need to do is the right can't combat the lie without showing the truth. That's what you need to do. Show it.

Speaker10: [02:00:39] That's why we show it.

Steven: [02:00:40] And that's why we say this is not a show for children, because we show you so that you can deal with it with your children, but you've got to show it.

Brian Callen: [02:00:47] There's also it's a really important to realize the difference between when you deal with the left, they only have really and this is from Jonathan Hite, who you had. Yeah, there is a moral palette. And what he does a very good job of looking at how liberals look at what actually matters and what you should worry about. And it's about being fair and it's about does it cause harm and is it fair? And that's it. There isn't talk about what sanctuary, sanctity, what is sacred, right? There's no respect. The idea of authority is really synonymous with power. And by the way, the left.

Steven: [02:01:22] Even honest, they change words because to them, cutting off your penis and creating a fake vagina that has to be dilated with a medical device for two hours a day for the next year, six months, whatever it is of your life. And also irreversible puberty blockers is not harmful. What's harmful to them? That's right. Is gay, William.

Brian Callen: [02:01:39] That's right. What's harmful to them? Well. Well, what's harmful is not that kind of surgery, but rather words. Yes, exactly. Words. Which is.

Steven: [02:01:49] Which means words of disagreement. Like, for example, you're saying if an adult says, hey, I want to be I want you to call me Cyndi Lauper, and we say, okay, fine, we'll call you whatever you want. Here's the thing. I also think that cruelty should not be synonymous with providing the actual help that people need. In other words, if someone is an alcoholic and says, actually, I'm just someone, I just I just need another drink. Right. You saying, actually, you don't. You don't. I love you, but you don't. You're an alcoholic. That's going to be painful. At first, I don't believe I don't believe that that should be synonymous with cruelty. And I think a lot of these people, they can say whatever they want, but we also need to be able to say and certainly Johns Hopkins and certainly other members of the medical community, by the way, when they try and say trust the experts, well, they ignore all the other experts need to be able to say, hey, I love you, but you know what? You're not a woman. You're not a woman. And let me explain to you why you're not a woman, what you would have to go through to try and live your life as a woman is irreversibly damaging. Not to mention you still wouldn't be biologically.

Steven: [02:02:41] Be a woman and it wouldn't be authentic. These would be non-functioning parts. So because I love you, I want to suggest to you that maybe there should be some counseling. Maybe you might want to explore some other options first. Christ is the perfect example there. Sometimes you'll get people who say, Hey, Jesus hung out with the sinners. And I do love that he you know, the sinners include prostitutes and tax collectors. They're on the same playing field. But here's what he did. He said, Hey, yeah, I love you, but go forward and sin no more. They weren't still sinning when they were hanging around with Christ. He didn't hate them. He loved them. But he pointed out the sin. And I'm not saying just sin, but pointing out something that certainly can be damaging does not mean that you hate somebody. If you're a parent and you tell your child, No, no, no, no, no, Hang on a second. You can't play with that. Why? Well, because it's laden with Chinese lead and that'll kill you. It doesn't mean that you hate your child. It means that you love them even if you're taking something away that would cause them or would create this false feeling of temporary pleasure.

Brian Callen: [02:03:32] That's because you're not born perfect. You're not. We are flawed from the start, and we're flawed to the end. Exactly. So. And life is constant work and getting better and failing and getting better. But the idea that you just as your essence and your feelings are sacred and you're perfect the way you are is a lie. It's a terrible way to you know why?

Gerald: [02:03:52] You know why they have that lie, Brian It's because it takes work, like to look at yourself and say that I'm not perfect and I've got flaws. You have to work on those things. It's so much easier to say that body, even though medically it's not healthy, is healthy. Right attitude. That habit that whatever it may be is just who you are because then I don't have to work on it and then I can just kind of do my thing. And that's how.

Brian Callen: [02:04:16] You ground your political, moral, spiritual philosophy by coming into contact with people that change your mind. Exactly. And this stems from Change Your mind means you have to know you're wrong and somebody mounts a better argument and you go, Wow, I'm living in a house of cards. I got to change these things.

Steven: [02:04:30] Yeah, No. And by the way, what you just said. Yeah. That's why the root cause of all of this is feminism. Because the idea that you're perfect the way you are, I mean, you have songs about it. You have shows that particularly was started, by the way, young men were never told they were perfect. Just, you know, that's a very new idea with feminism to try and say, No, no, everything that men say about you is wrong, because some men were they were wrong when they say, Oh, all women are X and there were sexism and there was misogyny and there was chauvinism, but they counteracted it with your perfect just the way you are. You're perfect. No, you're not perfect. Men have never been told that we're perfect. Women have been told that they are perfect since birth. Why? Because you're not allowed to say anything otherwise? Because we're part of an inherently patriarchal system. A patriarchal system? Yeah, I was going to say. Yeah. Intrinsically paternalistic, which is what Matthew Matthew Matt Damon said one time. But that is it does come from this idea of, Oh, hold on a second. You want to be you want to go to to work and have a robot suck milk from your tits while someone else, you know, ignores your kids. Great. You're perfect. Oh, wait a second. You want to marry a rich man.

Speaker12: [02:05:28] And even if he doesn't do anything wrong.

Steven: [02:05:30] Leave him and take half for the rest of your life and make. Okay, guess.

Speaker10: [02:05:33] What? You're perfect.

Steven: [02:05:34] Hey, you want to do none of those things and get a degree in gender studies and be a non-contributing zero. You're perfect the way you are. Whereas with young men, dads would say, What the hell is wrong with you? It starts with telling people that they are inherently good and perfect. You get people to believe that then anything they want must also be perfect too. Let's grab another chat.

Speaker9: [02:05:51] All right. Mike T57 asks, Is gay William a threat to Gerald's status of the gay guy on the show?

Gerald: [02:05:57] I am not gay.

Speaker10: [02:05:59] Yeah, I mean, he's 100%.

Steven: [02:06:02] I thought Yakuza was going to hit the soundboard there, too.

Gerald: [02:06:04] No, no, no, no.

Steven: [02:06:05] It's fine.

Brian Callen: [02:06:06] Gerald. You never had any. You never. You and your buddies wrestling around in college when you were playing football and somebody take flights out of the Speedo and.

Steven: [02:06:14] Yeah, I don't know any hole will do. I don't know.

Brian Callen: [02:06:16] Why I'm asking questions. I can't ask questions.

Gerald: [02:06:18] How does your penis fall out of your Speedo?

Speaker10: [02:06:21] Why are you wearing a.

Steven: [02:06:21] Speedo playing.

Brian Callen: [02:06:22] Football if you're wrestling hard enough.

Gerald: [02:06:24] Playing football?

Brian Callen: [02:06:25] No, but it's a warm up, isn't it? I don't know how you guys do it. I don't. I don't play.

Gerald: [02:06:29] Football. Warm up to playing football.

Speaker10: [02:06:31] Yeah, No, I'm more of a he's more of a you're more of.

Steven: [02:06:33] A Turkish oil.

Brian Callen: [02:06:33] Wrestling. Is that what I am?

Steven: [02:06:35] Turkish oil wrestling. That's an actual sport.

Brian Callen: [02:06:37] God, I'm so horny and.

Steven: [02:06:38] Turkish oil wrestling. Like, Yeah, there are no gays in Turkey. Have you watched us oil wrestle? Yeah.

Speaker10: [02:06:44] Fine. That's it. All right.

Gerald: [02:06:46] Yeah. Whatever you say.

Brian Callen: [02:06:47] I have to control you by gripping your duodenum.

Speaker10: [02:06:49] Yes, exactly.

Steven: [02:06:51] And we will. The world Championships are at our sister city, Frenulum next week. Let's grab some more chat.

Speaker9: [02:06:58] Sorry, Robin, who asks? Stephen has nicknames for the crew. But does the crew have a nickname for Stephen?

Speaker10: [02:07:05] Oh, I'm not pushing that button.

Brian Callen: [02:07:07] Scissor Master Athletic Santa Claus.

Steven: [02:07:11] I think I do often come in and do this. Oh, there it is. There it is. But it's never this.

Brian Callen: [02:07:17] Oh, God, Pylon.

Steven: [02:07:18] It's never this. It's always this. Because I will poison their souls. Hope they're like, Oh, it's a thumbs down again.

Speaker10: [02:07:24] I don't know. You do too.

Gerald: [02:07:25] Many characters for us to really have a nickname. That's right. You know what I mean? Like, you're.

Brian Callen: [02:07:28] The composite.

Steven: [02:07:29] Man, my friend. I'm sure they have a nickname when I'm not around.

Gerald: [02:07:31] That's not true. Well, no, Daddy.

Brian Callen: [02:07:34] It could be. Who said.

Steven: [02:07:34] That? That's not really a nickname when I'm not around. I mean, that's one is facing away from me. Let's grab another.

Brian Callen: [02:07:39] Pick a spot on the wall and go to your.

Speaker10: [02:07:41] It's a padded.

Steven: [02:07:42] Headboard. I take precautions.

Brian Callen: [02:07:44] Next chapter. I'm still making love. Keep going.

Speaker9: [02:07:46] Next chapter from Daria family. Stephen, what do you think of Tim Pool's definition of woke zombieism and how do you define woke of woke as Zombieism?

Steven: [02:07:54] I'm not entirely familiar with his definition, no, but I try and avoid sometimes using like you notice in the show, I don't really use the term woke a whole lot. I don't really use I'll refer to cancel culture because I know it's a vernacular. Maybe you guys understand, but it's something that I struggled with before. Cancel Culture existed. You know, we talked about this before. Change my mind. Yeah. Before the term woke before the term social justice warrior existed, I pitched a book that was basically changed my mind and these terms didn't exist. So it was called American Idiots. And this was because Green Day was really big and it was sort of a play on, you know, they had like the bleeding, the bleeding heart, but it was a brain that hand, you know, from the logo. But it was all about how to engage with people. And I said, You need to identify the difference between I referred to them. This is in 2010, maybe as modern leftists versus, you know, liberals by default. And what I was saying is a lot of people, if you're going to assume the cultural position that you get from everything you watch, everything you read, everything you hear on the radio, right, the entertainment industrial complex, you'll be a liberal by default because you're told to be a liberal, right? Unless you are actively seeking out information. The default position, if you're raised in this country, public school, go to college. Right? Go to work in. And if you consume media, you will be a liberal. It takes a proactive approach to become a conservative. So I said a lot of those people, their minds can be changed.

Steven: [02:09:13] But then there are people who are the modern leftists. This is the term that I used because back then the term woke social justice warrior didn't exist. And I would say people like the James Cameron's people, like the Sean Penn's people, like the Reiner's people, like the I think I even mentioned the Soros people, like the Anderson Cooper's people who are so bought in that they are the ones deliberately trying to influence the sort of liberals by default and manifest their leftist utopia. Those people's minds can't be changed. And so you need to make an example of them. So the term woke, I would say, gets a sort of interchangeable with what I've always referred to as a modern leftist, and that's someone who is bought in regardless of the truth. Anyway, that's not the same thing as a lot of people who check that Democrat box when they vote. A lot of those people are not aware of any of the things that we are discussing. And guess what? It is incumbent upon you to change their mind. Don't absolve yourself of it. There are some people, the modern leftists, the woke, if that's what he refers to as the zombies, I'm sure make an example of them. That's why we lampoon them. That's why we make fun of it. Because guess what? Ridicule is a very valuable tool. But there are a lot of people who will listen to what it is you have to say, especially if you already make them laugh by, you know, making fun of the Buffalo Bill TikTok star.

Brian Callen: [02:10:22] But I think the woke are the new Puritans. There is a religious element to it, a zealous. And they're they pray to of course they don't believe usually in God because that's totally out of style. But they do they do pray to the great God of of equality and equality at all or equity, equity, equity, equity. So enforce equality. Right. You it's possible to socially engineer equality, meaning if you judge anybody for, you know, something that is a trait they can't control, then shame on you. Not a bad thing. Not that different from something called Christianity. Yeah, it's just perverted. That's right. What God means for man made sort of idea for evil. Yes. And that's also really take out fixed truths.

Steven: [02:11:07] And that's also really important, too, is, you know, you can't fill a vacuum with another vacuum. So in in the absence of some kind of moral backbone and the absence of what created this country. Yes. Judeo-christian principles, where the founding fathers were very clear that this idea of the individual individualistically based society, I guess, does not work without a moral society. Once you get rid of morals and once you get rid of the even theological, certainly religious or faith based Judeo-Christian backbone, you replace it with something. And that's why it's a religion. It's dogmatic. The wokeism it will not change even in the face of science, which they just admitted. Higher depression, higher suicide. Hey, by the way, we have this is a perfect example. What is science? We'll say trust the science. Okay. Science is you have a hypothesis, right? You test it, then your your conclusion is drawn upon. How how this test, how this experiment went. Right. With an experiment, you have some kind of a control group, something that creates some kind of stability, something that creates a constant result. And then you compare it against something else. That's why we use placebos with drugs. We know what effect it should kind of be in. Compare it against a new drug.

Steven: [02:12:10] You have a perfect scientific experiment here, only it's been in the population at large with the transgender experiment. Okay. Hypothesis is these people are depressed and they're committing suicide in record numbers because they actually are born with the wrong brain. And there's no study that actually confirms that, by the way. But they say so we believe if we transition people this goes back to the John Money study. Both kids kill themselves. By the way, twins raised one as a girl. They say what we're going to do now is actually provide support and sex change operations and hormone replacement therapy because we have an epidemic of suicide. There's your hypothesis. You now have the experiment. The control is the group of people who weren't given mind altering hormone therapy or sex changes. And guess what? The suicide rate doesn't get any better. It may get worse. Correct conclusion. You're wrong. That would be science. You have the perfect experiment. But in the face of science, because it's a religion, it's dogmatic. Instead, they say, let's ignore what we now know to be true. Because wokeism, to use your term, is a religion. Let's grab one final chat and end it on this note. Let's make it count.

Speaker9: [02:13:11] Do it. All right. From Jacob Kahn's question for Gerald, I am really looking forward to your theology show. How do you identify theologically and if there is time, what about the rest of the crew?

Gerald: [02:13:23] I bristle at the how do you identify the theologically? I'm like, Yeah, so I'm looking trans Methodist. It's trans. You can't do that. No, I'm nondenominational. I'm a Bible believing Christian. I think that a lot of times what we do with maybe good intentions is both in Catholicism originally and in Protestant movement after that was try to put some structure around something so that people can access it a little bit more easily and have some kind of feel for it. Like as human beings, we desire structure. But what we did is we started to realize that that structure was getting away from us and we had to go back to something that was a little more decentralized. The structure should really be the Bible in Christ as the head of our church, right? Not necessarily some kind of a group or organization. Not that all of them are bad, but you can see some of the excesses in some of the Protestant churches that are now preaching, you know, prosperity gospels or not touching any issue at all that has any kind of consequence or going after, you know, these charismatic movements for, you know, healing for the sake of healing or speaking in tongues for no reason in church and not going by what the Bible says. So I try to stay away from all of that and just say, what does Scripture say? What is Christ trying to communicate to the body of believers and follow that? And if people are preaching that, I don't really care what denomination they are, I'm not going to follow necessarily. If you're Baptist and they say, don't drink because I'm like, Jesus, he made wine. And his disciples, it was.

Speaker10: [02:14:45] Grape juice, you son of a bitch.

Gerald: [02:14:47] It was not based on the time of year that the wedding was and based on when the harvest is. It could not possibly have still been great. Well, also the fact that natural fermentation.

Steven: [02:14:54] God and Jesus said, don't be prone to drunkenness, which I don't think happens with Welch's. It's exactly right.

Gerald: [02:14:58] So anyway, that's my brand of theology. And it's kind of colored by a lot of different people that, you know, use for commentary, background. But I just don't like these denominational boxes that people get put into and that if you're in one and it's fantastic and it's working for you, that's that's great. But are they putting more on you or are they yoking you with more than Christ yoked you with because you didn't yoke you with, don't wear, you know, you have to wear dresses to church or that you can't play this music or that. You can't say these things. So don't, don't let that happen.

Steven: [02:15:24] But I like a good maxi dress.

Brian Callen: [02:15:26] All of us are trying to get closer to the truth. And no matter who you are and I think a good question to ask an atheist, I always ask them, Who do you think got it more right? Who was closer to the truer way to live, therefore closer to something called the truth, at least in terms of this universe and what works in this universe, Julius Caesar or Jesus Christ that just ask them that question and then ask them why. And if they say Steven Crowder, that's the right answer. It is. That's the right answer. Ladies gurus.

Steven: [02:15:54] This is incorrect, but I appreciate I don't I don't even pay these guys. But all the plugs I'm getting from Alex Jones and Brian and all I'm saying, Brian Cowan And by the way, that will be tomorrow. We will be live with some of your chats and behind the scenes footage from all of the work that took place while we were on break, using that term loosely as well as Is it I'm sorry, with Gerald.

Gerald: [02:16:11] No, it's it's Gerald apologizes apologetics.

Steven: [02:16:14] Okay. So that will be tomorrow and it's only available on live earth credit.com/muckle so it is still free but you won't be watching it here on Rumble as we make this transition and we'll have more announcements regarding other shows. So I think you guys got it clear here, Gerald what we're talking about his theology. He doesn't and I know some people say that's a cop out non-denominational, but it is biblically based. And I think what's also important to note is there are state borders versus national borders. Mark Driscoll talks about this. For example, if you if you're like a pre-tribulation, right, you believe as a Christian before the rapture, sometimes you believe that some people will still be here. Well, that's a state border. It doesn't mean that you're not as long as you accept, you know, Christ as the person that he said he was. If you get to the point where you're like, oh, hell, doesn't exist. Okay, well, now we're beyond a national border or there are all paths lead to heaven. Now we're a national border. So I think what he's saying is Methodist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, look, a lot of them get things right. And these are minor differences that where we actually don't need to quibble. So he doesn't identify as any of them, but don't call him Episcopalian. Those guys are.

Speaker10: [02:17:10] Fags. Let's see you tomorrow.
