Streaming EARLY so I have MORE TIME to be at PRIDE

Dude, I'm so [ __ ] mad. It's Pride and I can't figure out how to wear a bandana. The bandanas that they are using in these videos are not like mine. They've been broken in a bunch. Hello, Reuben. They've been broken in a bunch. What is this I'm seeing in YouTube chat? Pride and Palestine aren't the same thing. I care because he praises himself as a supporter of a religion that doesn't like pride.

You guys ever not believe in democracy? You know how you guys believe in democracy, but sometimes you think, "Man, it's crazy that guy gets a vote, too." Does that ever like really shake you and you ever think like, "No, wait, hold on. That's actually a really good point. They shouldn't get a vote all the time." Okay, I think I might be further along than than some of you guys. Um, I gave up on the bandana. I'll try it again before I go to Pride. I got the the necklace for now.

We've got our uh DRRL denim western shirt, which just barely fits me, which is crazy cuz larges from DRRL usually fit me with some room to spare. But like look, look at this. And I don't I don't have big arms, you know? But like I if I if I work out even like a little bit, I'm going to be busting through this, you know? But I had like a a bandana, but man, it is it is difficult. It is difficult to tie the goddamn bandana, man. It is not easy because the bandana is too stiff. Look at this. Okay, I have to mute it. I have to mute it cuz of woke.

Like, yeah, you fold the bandana. That's easy. Okay. And I know all of these male fashion influencers, when I see them uh rock a bandana, you know what I notice? I notice how [ __ ] short they are. I see how much space that regular ass bandana has around your neck. Okay, you do not have a 16-inch neck or 17-inch neck or whatever. Stop. you need is a bandana and a ring. If you have a new bandana, throw it in the wash a little bit, get it wet, get it broken in. This one I got at a little boutique so it's nice and thin. And for the ring I'm using is this turquoise ring from Clocks and Colors. Say hello to my little friend.

First, lay your bandana down on a flat surface and fold it in half by bringing one corner to another. Then you have an XL bandana. Yes, I get large bandanas. Going to fold it in half again. Then you're going to roll it up and then twist each end in opposite directions to tighten up that roll even more and bring it around. It's all wrinkly lull. A bandana should be uh it should be cuz it needs to be like super super broken in. You're supposed to like toss in with a wash your neck. With both ends at the same length, you're going to slip both ends through the ring and slide the ring up. Then take one end and bring it up around the back and push it down through the ring. Same motion as when you're tying a tie. Then take the other end and do the same thing. Bring it up around the back and then pull it down through the ring. Then grab both ends and pull them to slide the ring up a bit. Now this last step is going to help secure the ring in place. You're going to take both ends. Josh, do you do pelon anymore? Will you be doing pel or will you be doing VG chatting after I ban your ass for asking that same [ __ ] what what is it with you people? Don't you know how rude it is to ask if people are keeping an exercise routine? You you know the answer is no. If I was keeping up an exercise routine, you would be hearing about it every morning. I'd be like I sure I'm better than you guys, but I'm not. Why? Cuz I'm no liar.

Okay. Well, I'm avoidant, that's for sure. Why do you Yeah. Okay. Okay. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Yeah. Okay. And tie a single knot. Pull tight. Then just slide the knot into the ring so it's hidden. Look at how [ __ ] good that looks. But the the the the bandana has to be so goddamn cooperative. That's beetles in the background. Be careful. Really? Honestly, shaming people into hitting the gym is the best way to get them there. Nah, no, no, no. The best way is to um to encourage shaming doesn't work that good. If shaming worked, none of you fat [ __ ] would be um over like waist 32 because all the bullying you endured in high school would have like um kicked into uh into gear a lifelong habit. I'm underweight. [ __ ] you. Eat a hamburger, skinny. You know, there's nothing there's only one thing more pathetic than an overweight person. It's an underweight person. At least losing weight is hard. Eat a [ __ ] hamburger. I don't get it. If I was If I was too skinny, I could fix that [ __ ] in like 48 hours. Like that. Oh [ __ ] I have I have extra room. I have extra room down here that I can fill up. Holy [ __ ] I'm going to give myself a heart attack. Aderal makes that part hard. Skill issue. The only part of me that's hard is the part that Addol doesn't affect. Okay. The rest of it soft like jelly. Why? Because I love eating. Good segue. That was good. That was good. Still got it. Is this ableless to those with appetite struggles? Yeah, that's true. [ __ ] This [ __ ] actually is pretty warm. I'm 6'3. [ __ ] You mean 32 inch waist? Okay. Well, I'm 6'2. That's what I mean. 32 inch waist. 6 foot 3. Nordic ass [ __ ] talking to me. Go play some basketball. I guess it's easier to be fat in America.

Guy who is underweight because he lives in Paris and his neighborhood is so walkable that he can't eat faster than he burns calories. He's like running from cafe to cafe. He's like uh uh give me uh uh uh I want a cappuccino but uh with extra cream. And then he sits down and has it. And then he walks over to the nearest the the next cafe. Um, and even though it's really close, it's still like enough of a walkable neighborhood that he's able to burn the calories in the interim. 0 out of 10 French accent. Have you been to Paris? Nobody there speaks French anymore. France has fallen. Nobody's even wearing French braids. It's all like Muslims or whatever. I was about to spring into a really bad boride impression. I don't know what the [ __ ] the point of that what what would have been. Um uh do they still wear parades? Only Curtis Sua, I'm afraid.

Is this the thing I'm looking for? Yeah, here it is. You guys see this? This one's pretty funny. We're finally starting to get some right-wing capitulation over to Zaran Mdani. Unfortunately, it's because the two people doing the capitulating are massive anti-semmites. So, you know, you have to you have to you have to take the good with the bad. You have to take the bad with the good. Okay. No, I I saw a clip of this and they're being uh rather consiliatory. Just uh Well, maybe not consiliatory. they're being a little they don't like Apac a second ago that um when people are really frustrated when they're the system they live under fails them they listen to voices that they shouldn't listen to or wouldn't listen to under any other circumstance like how did Al Sharp didn't get to be the leader of black America whatever I mean it's like just it's a thing desperate people tend to go to crappy leaders I think and I just can't get over what happened in our biggest city this week, the very same week that everybody in DC is focused thousands of miles away on the greatest threat we face, Iran's nuclear program. I want Iran to have the bomb. I'm not pro Iran, obviously. We're not pro Iran. Yeah. Like, why do we have to say it? It's done. At the same time that everybody was looking to Iran, our largest city had a Democratic primary, effectively the mayor's race, and like 32-year-old socialist who wants governmentr run grocery stores gets gets elected. He's going to likely run our biggest city. Yeah. In the in the country, right, New York. And it's like, why?

Oh, Tucker Carlson's training as a Fox News host probably comes in handy here because I feel like otherwise the contempt that he has for talking to somebody this much less intelligent than him has to seep through, right? Like Tucker Carlson is not stupid. He's just an evil evil liar. Um Marjorie Taylor Green, she's one of the only Republican reps who's taken no Apac money. You know that she actually is anti-Semitic. Like I I know the Jewish Space Lasers thing is is is like a meme, but like if you're a Republican congresswoman and you haven't taken money from Apac, that is probably because you're anti-Semitic. Um yeah, it's there's no like that's free [ __ ] money otherwise. It's crazy. Why did that happen? Is it because people are so like desperate for government run grocery stores or love socialism or love like foreignb born midwits running their cities? Probably not. Mm-m. That guy was the only person in the New York City mayor's debate to say he wanted to focus on New York City. They were all the candidates were asked, "If you could visit a foreign country, what would it be?" And they of course all had an answer. I think most said Israel. Great. And he said, "I wouldn't go anywhere. I'd stay in New York." And like if I want to meet Jewish constituents, I go to their synagogues, their homes or whatever. But I'd be here in New York because that's what I'm doing. I'm running New York. That's my job. I would stay in New York City. My plans are to address New Yorkers across the five burrows and focus on that. Mr. Mdani, can I just jump in? Would you visit Israel as mayor? I' I've said uh in a YouTube that was so [ __ ] funny, dude. When he answered the question directly and the the interviewer, obviously the point of this question was to get every candidate to say Israel except for Amdani, so he could then be questioned on that. But like he just like the the the the artifice or the lack of artifice, I guess, of just going like, "Well, okay, what about Israel? Huh? You going to visit Israel? Huh?" JA questionnaire that I believe that you need not travel to Israel to stand up for Jewish New Yorkers. And that is what I will be doing as the mayor. I'll be standing up for Jewish New Yorkers and I'll be meeting them wherever they are across the five burrows, whether that's in their synagogues and temples or at their homes or at the subway platform. Well, he gave the right answer. He gave the right answer. He gave the right answer at least. And he's talking I totally oppose his program just absolutely. I don't think it works, but um he's talking about economics. Yep. and everyone else is talking about foreign policy.

Remember how I said Charlie Kirk must be frustrated that he's a Nazi but he has to do like Nazism for Israel. Um I wonder if like like that this is part of that schism, you know? It's like as Israel becomes more and more of an optical black hole for every American, right? Cuz it's not just Democrats who've been polarized against Israel. Trump himself has, you know, um the Republicans have as well to an extent, to a lesser extent, but they'll follow along. If Trump ever said, "We're done with Israel," the support for it would plummet by 50 points within the Republicans. They are in a cult after all. Um, and uh uh uh as as time goes on, like that's going to give people kind of like moral permission on the right to, you know, break with the Nazism for Israel bit and just do like regular old Nazism, which is what Tucker Carlson's been pushing in the direction of for for some time. Um, Marjorie Taylor Green, too, who I also consider to be one of those people who's too stupid to lie. Like, I do think that Marjorie Taylor Green kind of always thinks that she's Did you see her banging the gavl? Did you see her banging the gavvel at that uh at the here? Hold on. I have to She's so funny, dude. I yield back. The gentleman yields, "No one loves veterans more than President Trump." And he's made that apparent. That's why he's working for peace. Madam Chair, right now, you're a time it I'm the chair of this committee. That's not how procedure works. You're not recognized, Miss Stanberry. You're not recognized either. You can't just speak anytime you want. I'm the chair of this committee. That's not how it works. You're not recognized. Chairwoman, that is not how parts, you're not recognized all day, but that's not how you're not recognized. We're going to get you a Roberts, you're not you're not recognized. Point of order. Understand parliamentary procedure. Point of order. Point of order. All right, Madam Chair, calm down. Let's move on. Miss Sansbury, you're not recognized. She's so [ __ ] funny, dude. Look, dog. Look at my [ __ ] Imperial Corps. Look at my Look at my uh uh uh [ __ ] den of capital. Look at my dragon's horde. You know what's going on in the in the in the capital. Point of order. Madam Chair, I've got a Oh, I'm sorry. You had a point of order. So, Madam Chair, can can we decide who's going to speak first and we go? Absolutely. I'm the chair of this committee and Mr. Gil, Mr. Gil from Texas is recognized. Just Why is it hard to talk about economics? Domestic economics. I don't know. Apparently, they don't know how to fix it.

Well, look who he was running against. He's looking I mean, the failed mayor, Andrew Cuomo. Look at him. He's governor. Yeah. Governor or governor. Yeah. Um honest mistake could happen to anyone. um discussing sexual uh all types of accusations. Yeah. Um so he was he was seen as the dirty establishment Democrat, right? Machine politician, right? Right. That really never solved anyone's problems. They already had him and they still have the same problems. They're still poor. They can't afford life. They can't afford to move up in the world. And so they looked at Andrew Cuomo and was like, "Why am I going to vote for him? He's not going to make my life better." No, it's And so they look at this this man who's been in our country for what? Six years? Yeah, six years. So he's foreign born. He's a So no, he wouldn't be a citizen if he was only in the country for 6 years. It's been um He's 33. Yeah. And he moved here when he was seven, so 26. Yeah. Socialist. And he's promising to empty the prisons and do all kinds of crazy things. No, no, I don't think he said that. And he's talking but he's talking to them on their level and talking about talking about the problems they are facing, relating to them with the problems they're facing. So these young people have no choice but to turn to this. I I agree. And it's it's it is a failure. It is literally a failure of of the Republican party. I think the Republican party has completely failed and it makes me so angry, Tucker. And I can't, you know, I'm I'm not supposed to speak out, right? I'm not supposed to have my own opinion. I'm supposed to just have blind allegiance to my party and I'm supposed to cheerlead. But that's not why you which you do. You're like the most cheerleader for Trump. There there's no doubt though that a ton of people have had background conversations with MTG where they're like, "Shut the [ __ ] up. Please shut the [ __ ] up." Like I know everyone every Republican on Cap Hill is a like wealthy VC pedophile or whatever. Um but it's got to be grading to be a 65-year-old stately pedophile and then you have to share a seat next to this woman. You know what I mean? like your partic your personal style of making the country worse is is gental and educated and then you've got this thing like it's got to piss them off a little bit, right? Oh, wait. She might not even be a pedophile. Like she might not fit in with the Washington crowd at all. Why I ran That's not why I ran for Congress in the first place. I literally ran because I was mad at Republicans. Yeah. Well, I'm still mad at Republicans because it is affecting our children's lives and future. And it's it's our job to hold our elected leaders accountable. It's my job to hold my colleagues accountable. And if we don't fix these problems to the point where young people are turning to crazy socialists, it it's going to get worse. It's literally going to get worse. And our it it'll be gone. I I don't think we could ever get it back. Well, it's just kind Where was this before? Well, so this is an unsolvable problem, right? Cuz Marjgerie Taylor Green is a right-wing populist, or in other words, not a populist at all, but this is the closest they can get. Same as people like Tucker. You can talk all you want about wanting to like discuss domestic economics and improve the lives of everyday people, but that's not how you do your thing. You do your thing by being extremely racist. Like, that's not like it's it's tuck across. If you if there was a market for appealing to right-wingers by talking about economics and improving people's lives with domestic policy, you would have already filled it. There isn't a market for that. You win over that community by being very racist and by being hateful and conspiratorial. You know that, which is why you both do that. Like you c you can't do what Mamani does. It's the same reason neoliberals can't capture Mamani's energy without his policies. You can't have the energy of a bombastic, upbeat, enthusiastic, anti-establishment campaign that's going to really dig down and fix the issues when your actual policies are like respectively um inane neoliberal wonkery or um white ethnostates. It doesn't work. You you kind of need that. No, no one else can really steal that sauce. kind of weird because Fox News tells us that the real threats are abroad or there Iranian sleeper cells in the United States. It seems to me the real threat to the United States is the collapse of its cities of its population centers where the most people live. I don't live in a city. Don't want to live in a city because they suck. Yeah. Defining feature of uh conservative men is that they're gigantic [ __ ] Also such a lar dude. Tucker Carlson is literally a dainty air boy. Like he's he's literally like a father, father, could I join you at the country club today type kid who sat in the lap of power of billionaires for decades and only recently started laring as like a rural woodworker, you know? Um like he is the mo along with Jesse Waters, he is the most fake masculine person on the right by far. No one else even comes close. But in a normal country, I would live in a city and so would you. Sure. Of course. So, I don't understand how if we spent the last 25 years fighting all these wars, obsessively focused on our enemies abroad, jihadis or or whatever. They're telling us the threat is white supremacists under Biden. And the country has not gotten better. No. It's like maintaining the empire has destroyed the republic. It does feel that way. America has thousands of colleges and universities and a lot the [ __ ] twangy acoustic guitar in the background again. This [ __ ] heir to the Swanson fortune. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Get your get the put the ad read in the bag. Economic idea in the world. You're afraid to preach this country better. Oh my god. By raising well educated students. Republicans refuse to talk about economics, like actual economics, not [ __ ] economics, GDP and tax cuts, but actually like it's too expensive for my kids to buy a house. What are you doing about that? Right? And the answer is absolutely nothing other than yelling you're a socialist. I'm not insecure about being a socialist. I don't really care what people call me. But that is a much bigger problem than anything Iran is cooking up in its centrifuges as far as I'm concerned. Certainly a bigger problem for everyone I know. My kids can't buy a house. Therefore, they can't get married and have kids, right? I I think your kids can probably afford a house. I'm just gonna guess you're pretty wealthy. Um, did he say he was a socialist? Now, guys, don't fall for this [ __ ] Okay. Nick Fuentes said that his favorite authoritarian leader was Joseph Stalin. Um, the Nazis themselves cosplayed as socialists before they took power. Every fascist has this moment where they're like, "Holy [ __ ] we actually we're not going to get enough support from people unless we pretend we're socialist because it turn like we actually have no interest in fixing people's problems." You know, the red brown like fake syncric alliance like that's it's that that goes

Back, that that's an old that's as old as time. Okay, that's an old one.

So, think about this. Last week, our kids were just thinking about, "I can't afford to buy a house. Where am I going to get a good job? All my friends can't find a good job." A lot of young women that are conservative are like, "Where am I going to find a good man?" A lot of conservative young men are like, "Where can I find a decent young woman to marry because many of them are insane, have turned left or so far left."

Yeah. So, last week, 37 sexual partners. Um, which—Sorry, people just aren't into it. You know who's into that? It's not I. You're both like 60. Do you have—have you ever even opened a dating app? The [ __ ] are you talking about? So there's all the—But but think about it. Last week they were thinking about all their other problems that they already have, but they weren't thinking about, "Do I have to worry about a terrorist attack happening here in the United States?"

Fast forward to this week. You might notice that they're talking a lot about how the GOP doesn't talk about real people's problems. And at no point during this are they going to talk about how to fix real people's problems, cuz they're interested in the accolades of being the the, you know, the daredevils who will criticize the GOP for being part of the political machine, but they also don't [ __ ] care. So, they're not going to talk about it like for real now. It's like, "Oh my gosh, not only is life unaffordable and all these unknowns and all these problems I have and my credit card debt is and my credit cards are maxed out and I can't go on vacation and I want to go with my friends and I want to go to this concert, but I can't afford it. But now they have to think about, 'Oh, if I do go to that concert, there could be a terrorist attack because we bombed Iran.'" It's like a whole another whole another set of problems.

Yeah. And so, of course, when this guy that's running for mayor of New York City, iconic New York City, is talking to New Yorkers and he says on the debate stage when he's asked, "What foreign country do you want to go visit?" And the rest of them are saying, "Israel," and he says, "I don't want to go. I just want to stay here in New York," of course, they're going to listen to him. Uh, that's not somebody—something I expected them to explicitly say. Please don't fall for it. Marjorie Taylor Green defended Trump's strikes in Iran. Marjorie Taylor Green voted for the big beautiful bill that's going to massively increase income inequality and [ __ ] over like 99% of Americans. Like they don't care. They just like the little accolades and podcast attention they get from pretending they do. It's it's not like it's just another aesthetic flourish, but fundamentally the ideology is still they want to rape kids and impoverish people. It's not—it's—it's not novel.

Yeah. I listen to him and I—I don't want him to be mayor of New York at all. I—I think it's so important that someone responsible and reasonable and American runs New York. But um, I guess in general I just resent—I resent importing foreign conflicts into our country. Ancient race hatreds, religious, ethnic, even—even when it's us bombing other countries, we're importing hatreds. What—what does that have to do with us? And I feel like we've definitely wholesale imported that. I get texts all the time from, you know, some people I like but you know, Pakistani, Indian, Bangladeshi telling me about some fight in US or Canada between different uh, Muslim or Hindu groups. And I'm not against any of them. I like them all. I'm not sure. But what does that have to do with North America? Nothing. So why did we—Well, they're in North America because—because Canada's in North America, so yeah, other countries don't put up with that. You try that in the UAE. Yeah. You're some—This happened. You're some Pakistani worker building office buildings in the Gulf and you like—the—the—the irony of people of European descent saying we don't want to import foreign conflicts. I just Googled Tucker Carlson ethnicity. English, Scottish, Irish, German, Italian, Swiss. So, with the exception then of the Swiss, I suppose. Um, yeah. None of—none of those groups came into America bringing any [ __ ] animosity against one another. Irish, English, Scottish, Jesus Christ. I'm—Sandwich. March through downtown Abu Dhabi saying I'm, you know, I'm mad at India. They're like, "You're out on the first flight, right? Back to L'ore." Burning their flag. Yeah. Nothing personal. Yeah. If they're out, if you're out there burning their Indian flag, I'd love to see what happens to you. Yeah. Well, they—I mean, the attitude of the Amirati government is that has nothing to do. Don't bring that [ __ ] here. Right. Even if we're on your side. I mean, you know what I mean, right?

Yes. 100. It's such a weird irony of in the same breath saying, "We're America. We don't want to deal with your foreign conflicts," but then also like drooling over the authoritarianism and lack of freedom of speech protections of a [ __ ] hole pro-state, you know, percent.

Yeah. But okay, so in Congress, we have—I think it's 32 members of Congress are foreign-born, not born in the United States.

Really? 32?

I serve with them. 32.

Well, I was surprised to learn that Ted Cruz is not American.

You seriously? You didn't—you didn't find this out during the 2016 primary?

Well, he is American, but you didn't find out all that during the 2016 Republican primary. All the business, military base, Canada. Okay. He's like a secret Canadian. He's from Canada, not Texas.

Yeah. So, Canada, does he border Texas? I—I don't think so. Not on the map I saw.

Okay. Fascinating stuff. Deport Ted Cruz.

Well, I'm not saying it would be a bad idea. Lash tensions between ethnic groups is pure American culture. Yeah. Haven't you seen Westside Story? 30 years ago the rhetoric was, "In foreign land [ __ ] is bad. You better be grateful you live in the US." Now it's, "In foreign land [ __ ] is bad." Isn't that awesome?

Yeah. It's—well uh, again there's no actual like vision for the future, right? If you talk to a person like Mandani, you have everything. You have a solid ideology. You have—you have an ideological founding that's rooted in like historical uh, analysis but contemporarily relevant or contemporarily uh—uh contemporary in its—in its relevance, right? Um, you have uh, a desire to make the place better, right? You have plans to make the place better. You have like everything you need. But then when you look at stuff like this, what you're really getting is people who are feeding their audiences uh, breadcrumbs like—like in a fishbowl, you know? They're getting little parcels, little snippets. Uh, "What if in this episode we acknowledge that the GOP isn't sincere when they say they want to improve the lives of Americans?" Oh, that's genius. Okay, let's do that. Do you want to like talk about stuff that would improve the lives of Americans? No. Best we can do is glaze an Emirati slave state for deporting people for exercising their First Amendment rights or what would be First Amendment rights over here in the States.

Okay. Yeah. Sorry. Sorry, Tucker Carlson audience. You don't actually get a better world. You just get to like feel more smug than the GOP for not having a vision of the better world.

You know, in a lot of ways, actually, there's a—there's a big similarity between people like Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes and the extreme Twitter lefties in that there's a cynicism there, I think, um, that they are disinterested in—in meaningfully changing the world, but they are very interested in looking like and getting, you know, the accolades of someone who could change the world if only they were in the seat of power, but they're not. So, they're just going to sit, you know, they're just going to sit in the sidelines and bicker and throw popcorn. It is very performative.

Yeah. Again, Marjorie Taylor Green praised Trump's bombing of Iran. Marjorie Taylor Green voted for the big beautiful bill. Marjorie Taylor Green has not been an impediment to any of the legislation that's gone through the GOP that has made the country more unequal, more unaffordable. She has never once, not once, uh, meaningfully resisted it. Sometimes she'll kick up a fuss on Twitter, but she always falls in line every single time. Same with Tucker Carlson. It's very convenient for Tucker Carlson to pretend that he's had this like paradigm shift since leaving Fox News, but he spent literal decades in the heart of the machine doing and saying whatever he's told to by Murdoch. Um, like with no limitations, no principles, no consideration whatsoever. And uh, now he gets to pretend that he's this like, "Well, having seen how it works from the inside, I—I have to say I'm—I'm sick and tired of it." They don't actually care about people at all.

Still kind of funny though that Mandani's energy and charisma is such that people like this kind of have to try to borrow his credibility. You know what I mean?

Yeah. That has the most views of any of the recent videos it seems. There we go. The uh, Iran bombing six days ago. That's how far back you have to go. This one's only 18 hours old. I think it means something better than uh, "Disturbing details emerge about creepy Tim Walls's connection to China." Hold on a second. I thought Tucker Carlson was opposed to constant fear-mongering over foreign countries. The connection that Tim Walls had with China was like he briefly had a Chinese girlfriend or something while working overseas there. Are we—are we gonna—So in this one we're like, "Well, we're sick and tired of—of—of fear-mongering over foreign countries rather than fixing local issues." And then in this one, it's, "He should be investigated."

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Hey, out of curiosity, um, how far back do you think you would have to go to find a single video here that is talking about, uh, local economics and how the like common man is getting screwed over by um, the GOP or even just like the government in general. Let's—let's try to—let's—let's try to see. Okay. So, Tucker Carlson seems very concerned um, by the fact that the GOP is obsessed with fear-mongering over foreign countries, but won't talk local economics. He's fear-mongering over foreign countries plenty in these videos. So, [ __ ] we might be here for a bit, huh? Anything at all? Oh, "You're being lied to about the one big beautiful bill and the numbers prove it." Is that it? Did we find one? Ah, this—this—this might be one uh—a critique of the one big beautiful bill. Did you bring that up with Marjorie Taylor Green out of curiosity?

Yeah. I've made my point. I'm the only authentic uh, YouTuber. Give me money. That's my point. Give me money. I want money.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Can we please watch the new Dem podcast? You mean the one that's not even breaking a thousand views in every episode? The one that—um, hold on. The one that, and I'm saying this respectfully, looks like it's being hosted by somebody with cancer. Uh, not that having cancer makes you a bad person. Uh, however, where's the—where's that [ __ ] video? Oh, here we go. "Mr. President, we call [ __ ]"—This is—This is—This is actually like incredible decor. This is everything wrong with the DNC's attempt to market itself in—in new media. Look at this. I vote for Democrats. You see what I mean by the cancer thing, right? I'm just saying. You—you—you—you get me? Um, okay. I—this might be like racist or homophobic of me, maybe both. But I feel like this phenotype of individual is over-represented in young people working for—I feel like if I—if I walked around West Hollywood and I found a white 20-something Zionist homosexual who was very annoying to the waiters and waitresses who served him, that guy would have—like—that's the guy that I'm thinking of. That's the guy that like the DNC is paying $300,000 a year to do a shitty podcast. Do you understand what I'm talking? Like I—there's a very specific kind of like safe progressive that we're willing to tap. I don't know. I'm—I'm very familiar with this kind of guy. I grew up right next to West Hollywood. Um, he looks weirdly square.

Well, he's cut. Yeah. I mean, I don't—I don't know about down there, but I mean, like, body fat-wise. Low-key looks like Vosch with no hair. Lol.

All right. Monkey with a keyboard. That one. That one's—That one's getting the—That one's getting the monkey with a keyboard mute. You [ __ ] kidding me? I do appreciate the implication, however, that underneath the beard I am 10% body fat. That is very kind of you. Why does the host look like one of the guys in the new Mad Max? Um, can somebody find me this podcast? What's it called? It is really funny that in an era where people demand authenticity more and more from their new media, the Democrats would go with the most like transparently inauthentic representation of their party possible. Uh, sterile millennial background, no personality whatsoever, the only decor being the safest possible pro-Democrat. Like Tucker Carlson's background doesn't look like this. No Republican's background looks like this. The Republicans' backgrounds when they do their podcasts and shows are usually like a cultivation of their specific interests and flavor and aesthetic, you know, like it's meant to be personalized to them because it speaks to that feeling of authenticity. Uh, not this though. I sent this to you. That's great. 933 views streamed one day ago. What in the holy slop is this? Any mention of Mamani. Mamdani is the future, brother.

You sure? That the Planned Parenthood organization cannot sue South Carolina over its decision to pull Medicaid funding because the group provides abortions. This is why—this is why I've said, by the way, like the Democrats are so vulnerable to getting their ass rocked by progressive uh, upstarts within their party because the Democrats are literally like not capable of doing media outreach. They have no idea how to do it. They're—they're completely incompetent. They have no clue how to do it. Um, it's really—really—really—really funny. Yesterday's Supreme Court decision has devastating repercussions for women's access to—Okay, so mild criticism. Why are you doing that with your head? I feel I'm bullying a lobby right now because like this podcast has no views. Like who is this person? No information on the person. No—no personability at all. DNC lab creature. Yeah. To reproductive care. While opening the door to attacks on health care covered under Medicaid at the Supreme Court and in the halls of Congress, Medicaid is under attack, jeopardizing the health care of millions of Americans. And Donald Trump and Republicans couldn't care less. I'm Curtis Bradley Brown, your host for today. Curtis Bradley Brown. Th—this podcast is why the Kamala Harris presidential campaign is still in debt. By the way, this is how they spent $2 billion in four months. Okay. Found uh, found his Instagram. He's gay. Not surprising, but that's the only thing I can find from the Instagram. Not really much in the way of uh—uh political—political stuff here, right? Even though it's Curtis_DC, on LinkedIn, I can't use LinkedIn because I don't have a LinkedIn. Why would I have a LinkedIn? I'm a YouTuber. In 2022, "The hardest goodbye to the one and only Curtis Bradley Brown. One of my closest friends here in the Mov is moving on to Washington DC for production work. Super proud of you, my guy. The won't be the same without you, KBB. Catch him one last time." Okay. And Zach Miles is the morning producer on NBC 10 Boston. Okay. So, he worked for local news and he got tapped in by the national Democrats uh, to go work in DC and now they've put him here presumably because they didn't know what else to do with him. Man, no hate to this guy by the way. I genuinely don't know a [ __ ] thing about this guy. And he's definitely not writing his own scripts, but like man, why can't Democrats be normal? Like genu—Why can't you just like find people with an authentic voice and some unique charisma and then give them a platform? Don't call it the Democrats. Do Republicans broadcast their propaganda from a YouTube channel called The Republicans? Why would you like—Why would they do that? Those people can't be easily controlled. I—I think it is a—a testament to how weak Democrats are that they are so terrified of autonomy from the people who are spreading their message. Republicans will work with anyone and everyone. Republicans jumped on top of Kanye when he was Hitler posting. Okay? Like they litery—They constant drama, but they'll do it. They'll—they'll fight and they'll scrap for every bit of legitimacy. The Democrats will not work with you unless you are the most safe, sanitized. You have to be like a Harry is Sisson. Is that who I'm thinking of? You have to be like that kind of guy. You have to crush mad [ __ ] is what I'm saying because that's apparently what Sisson's doing. I heard people got mad at him for that. Like this is how you have to post. "America failed women tonight. Trump's second term." This crap. "Trump just attacked CNN journalist Abby Phillip calling her third rate." Oh yeah. Uh-huh. "President Biden just visited the Minnesota capital to pay his respects to Melissa and Mark Hortman. If anyone knows about loss, it's Biden. What an amazing gesture from an amazing man." Just totally like unhinged, unrelatable. Like it gets—it's—it's—it's like it's designed to never win a single vote. It can only ever appeal to people who are already just completely brainwashed Democrat voters like—like no independent thinking, you know. Oh, then retweeting the Joe Biden one. Gavin Newsome. Gavin Newsome. Wear the shirt. You need psychiatric help. Unsurprisingly, uh, no mention of Mandani from Harry Cissan because he's like a paid stooge of the Democratic party. Or is there? No, I don't think there is. Okay. He's calling people racist for saying that New York City has—Oh, wait. Maybe I'm wrong. "It's clear the Democrats are done with boring establishment candidates. The traditional way of campaigning in Democratic primaries is a relic of the past. Candidates who recognize that Nadap will win." Okay. Okay. Okay. I acknowledge fault. Uh, very minimal in my opinion, especially because he didn't actually say Zaran Mandani. Uh, but you know, less of the night. Please Democrats embrace social media and new media clearly works. Yeah, but Harry, you're the opposite of what won Mamani the victory. Like you are the sterile corporate machine Democrats sanitized for public consumption, you know, style that he avoided. Sorry. I—I guess this is just like a—a broader inquiry into Democrat safe media. You know what I mean? I looked at that Curtis guy from the podcast. He's the director of all the DNC's multimedia strategies. What? This guy has a management role? There's no way. What's his—What's his name again? Mandani Curtis Bradley Brown. Do you—do you have any—It's easier. It's easy to Google people with [ __ ] prominent middle name. Do you have—what source do you have that this guy runs? The Democrat social media LinkedIn. I can't look at LinkedIn. LinkedIn apparently. Okay. So, it says it there. Okay.

Day, Friday, June 27th, and this is the Daily Blueprint. [Music] Yesterday, we went over how Democrats are fighting back against the ugliest parts of Trump's big, beautiful reconciliation bill. And if you need a refresher, reconciliation is a specific legislative tool that focuses on the budget. Most importantly, reconciliation bills only need 50 votes in the Senate to pass instead of the usual 60, making it a sneaky way for Trump and MAGA Republicans to push through their dangerous agenda. The Senate's on track. You—You think reconciliation bills are like a sneaky tactic? It's the only way anything gets through [ __ ] Congress. Um, you think they could have cleaned the audio up for the—s noises a little bit. Begin voting on the legislation this weekend with House passage potentially as early as next week. Democrats are fighting to stop Trump's big ugly bill. With Democrats leading the charge, the Senate parliamentarian, it does look like laws for Steven Universe. The bill—or not, struck down a number of Republicans' attacks on Medicaid, including a backdoor plan they had for an abortion ban. So, this is huge. It could save millions of Americans from losing access to healthcare. Here's the top Democrat. I feel like just as a um, a matter of principle, if you're trying to expand the Democratic influence through new media, praising a Chuck Schumer through a Chuck Schumer tweet is like—and putting it on screen, no less, is like just a non-starter. You know, why is this so fast-paced? Because there is no personality. It's a script that was written to deliver specific information that was given down from on high to this guy. And it—there is no room for natural delivery because it's all deeply—deeply unnatural to healthcare. Here's the top Democrat on the Senate Finance Committee, Ron Widen, explaining what some of this means. Overnight, my staff—

On the finance committee got several of the horrible provisions. That's great. This is also very charismatic. Thank you.

Removed from the bill. The first is a special Medicaid tax. Stripping it keeps the Republicans from cutting billions in Medicaid. Okay, you screenshotted the LinkedIn. Thank you. Curtis Bradley Brown is a strategic leader and hands-on manager with production experience, spanning entertainment, news, and politics. He began his career as a one-man band reporter at the NBC affiliate in Parksburg, West Virginia, and has gone on to produce television at the network level. But I thought the guy who said goodbye to him worked in Boston. Maybe he moved after saying goodbye. After running the multimedia studio at Biden Harris and Harris Walls HQ in 2024. Oh my god. He now serves as studio director for the DNC. Oh my god. He oversees all production activities within the DNC's in-house multimedia studios used daily by members of Congress as well as party leadership surrogates and spokespeople. Oh [ __ ] Only dude.

The Listen, if you ever get a job within the National Democrats, you are set for life. It does not matter how badly you [ __ ] up; you are going to you are set for life. This Yeah, now we can hate this guy now that we know he's not an intern and he had he's not only not only is he powerful, he's actually responsible for Trump winning in all likelihood. He regularly advises the war room team made up of the communications, research, and mobilization departments as well as external partners through every phase of the content creation process and was instrumental in launching the daily blueprint. The Democrats daily oh my god he's the one who pitched the [ __ ] daily blueprint that went on for like two weeks. The Democrats daily morning update. Well-versed in politics, production, and working with principles, Curtis translates high-level strategy into actionable production plans, leads teams with creative and technical expertise. Sorry. Leads teams with productive technical expertise. Get it? Cuz it's like the audio isn't hasn't been properly. You get it? Draws on his years of onstage and on-camera experience to ensure that principles from elected officials celebrated are fully prepared to feel confident before stepping in front of a camera. Background in theater, Broadway productions. He and his husband live in the Logan Circle neighborhood of Washington, DC. That's great. Good for them. Uh, can you stop like giving our country to Republicans, please? Can you like be slightly more competent at your job? Why is it that the gropers running the Twitter accounts of the average Republican staffer or sorry, the average Republican congressman, why are they so much better at messaging than you? Like, this is your job.

Here's what we need to do, guys. Okay, we need to um institute a new rule. If you have ever seen Hamilton, you can't work in media for the DNC. I feel like that would actually in one fell swoop get rid of every problem element. I'm not even saying Hamilton's bad. I'm just saying like that would do it, you know?

And to no one's surprise, Republicans are sore losers. They're pissed off. They won't stop fighting over provisions they want stuffed into the bill. They're even calling on the Senate parliamentarian to be fired. What I'm about to say, I do not say lightly. I don't like having to say it, but it needs Whoa, that's interesting. So, take a look. So, really quickly, let's do a bit of contrast like me media analysis stuff. Okay. I want you to tell me what you feel the difference is between this and the previous um little video cut-in we got from a um a member of Congress. to be said. The Senate parliamentarian Elizabeth Mcdana needs to be fired. She needs to be fired by our Senate Majority Leader, Senator Thoon. The Senate. So, Crenshaw looks annoyed. He's holding the camera himself, or at least he appears to be. Um, his emotions seem authentic. I doubt they are, but they seem authentic. Um, he's looking down into the camera. It looks intimate. It looks personal. and he does have an eye patch. Let's go back a little bit. Removed from the bill. The first is a special Medicaid tax. Stripping it keeps the Republicans from cutting billions in Medicaid. You understand? This looks stilted, inauthentic. It looks like a script is being read from him. It doesn't seem like it's expression of any actual like authentic emotion. Um, he's holding a little microphone. He's just awkwardly standing. It's obviously not him filming himself, so it looks staged. How are they this bad at their jobs? That's what I want to know because this is this is the thing that makes me like kind of conspiratorial. Okay, you have to be bad at your job to do this. Like if you are running media for the Democrats and you are so bad at coordinating and messaging that you in your own video are juxtaposing this effective bit of messaging with the previous ineffective bit of messaging and you're repping the ineffective one. Like what are you doing? Because it's just a job to them. It's it's it's criminal incompetence. needs to be fired by our uh I agree. Uh Curtis, whatever the [ __ ] needs to be fired, Senate Majority Leader, Senator Thoon, the Senate parliamentarians just doing her job. It's it's a nonpartisan position and Republicans want her fired just cuz she didn't do what they wanted her to do. But Democrats aren't falling for these Oh man, imagine that, dude. Imagine Can you imagine that? Can you imagine a person being frustrated that a uh weird, boring, uninteresting, banal bureaucratic process is getting in the way of you doing something you want to do? Look at the audacity of Cshaw, man. Oh, how, dude? She's just doing your job. Like, do these people talk to ordinary people? You need to move out of DC, okay? You need to go live in New York or something and come commute to DC whenever you're I don't know, you work two days a week probably. Uh, you need to like interact with regular people for a bit because the the the Democrats are so inhuman, man. They're so [ __ ] inhuman. They're such aliens. They're such lizard people. The Republicans Marjorie Taylor Green is a human. I mean, she looks like a Titan from Attack on Titan, but like she's a [ __ ] fiery [ __ ] She's not inauthentic, you know?

DC is fine. I love DC. It's just who he hangs with. Yeah, but he needs to be away from the problem elements. Okay. The Dems seemingly have no idea how culture emerges despite having the two most important cultural powerhouses in the country on their side, gay people and black people. It's [ __ ] bizarre. Like, that sounds like a [ __ ] post, but it's not. It is genuinely insane. How How the [ __ ] do you come across this stilted when 98% of black women vote for you? Like you're lit like black women are literally the [ __ ] cauldron from which like all modern language is brewed and you're like how how are you not effortlessly styling on your opposition every time? It's insane.

Political games. Here's Congressman Robert Garcia talking about what's at stake. I think the Senate's finding out. We in then the House Democrats already know this is a horrific bill. Much of it unconstitutional. A lot of it will not pass with a parliamentarian. And the Senate now is struggling with this idea that what this actual bill is trying to do is to rip away health care for 16 million Americans. It's trying to take away food assistance for low-income families across the country. And the parliamentarian is right to strip out these provisions. And we're going to see what the Senate is going to try to do. But at the end of the day, every American should know that this bill is all about taking away health care and then giving away a huge wealth transfer to the richest people in this country. And while Republicans continue to push Trump's attacks on Medicaid through Congress, White House press secretary Caroline Levitt confirmed what Americans have known all along. Donald Trump couldn't care less about if you have healthcare or not. Let's take a listen. If the final bill that the president's been talking about comes to him and it has Medicaid cuts in it, will he sign it or would he rather just Congress do away with those with those cuts? I think our friends in both the Senate and the House know exactly where the president stands on Medicaid. He wants to get rid of the waste, fraud, and abuse. Uh and they are working to do that in the Senate right now. See, she that's such a weak clip to use to support this argument. It's not horrible content, but it's not good either. No, no, it's actually horrible. It's actually maybe the worst content there is. I would actually put this worse than like the Tucker Carlson show. It fails in every level. So, informationally, this provides almost nothing. This podcast will never ever ever criticize the Democrats in any way, shape, or form. It'll actually glaze them for everything they do, no matter how ineffectual or embarrassing. Um, so likeformationally, you might as well be watching Fox News. Genuinely, there's no difference. Um, you're getting no information here. like the Democrats, if this podcast was around for, I don't know, 2028, okay, and and uh President Nuome institutes the we're putting all homeless people in gas chambers bill, okay, this podcast would praise it. There's no actual ideological grounding here. It's just partisanship. So, Fox News, but it's less entertaining than Fox News. It's also much worse produced than Fox News, like by a huge degree. Um, it's uh it's it's monstrous. I mean, I I don't think it's an overstatement to say this is why we lost the election, right? Like I think that and I, by the way, I don't think that's like a fringe lefty opinion. I think if you show the average Democrat voter this, they would go, "What the [ __ ] is this?" And I think if you show the average Republican voter this, they would go, "Yeah, that's why I voted for Trump." Like this weird, inhuman, stilted, fake, rehearsed, uh, like totally disconnected, not even trying to pretend to be a a person [ __ ] Yeah, that's why I voted for Trump. Couldn't even say whether or not Trump would veto Medicaid cuts. Despite the facts, we know Trump is lying through his teeth about his plans to gut Medicaid. And we're going to also cut costs. We're cutting one point for multiple hours. Exploded. A brave whistleblower just estimated that Trump's changes and Elon Musk's cuts have doubled. sums up the current chaos best. When Elon Musk and Donald Trump come in Jesus Christ, look at this. Senator Elizabeth Warren sums up the current chaos best. When Elon Musk and Donald Trump come in with a chainsaw and they're firing people and creating chaos, two things, dead air in the room, you hear white noise in the background. Uh you can't hear her voice properly. She doesn't seem to be miked, I guess. Uh sitting in a what? In a in a in a bedroom. It's not like filmed personally. What's the point of a podcast format if every time you're going to have a cutaway to a politician, they're clearly getting like the sit down where they read a script. What's the point of that? Like the whole point of a podcast format for an institution like the DNC is that it has this like sense of authenticity. Why would you cut that with this? It makes no sense. happen, the number of mistakes goes up and the people there to help you get them fixed goes down. And that's and her audio also has these weird like like these these cutting s's. Do they just not know how to mix the audio properly? Bad for everyone who counts on social security. See, here's the bottom line. The Trump administration is severely disrupting the Social Security Administration, putting benefits for 73 million working families at risk while giving tax handouts to the ultra wealthy. Can this even be called a podcast? Not really. No. And trust me, people like this would never ever allow for an unscripted interview cuz that could go badly. They wouldn't want that. They would never ever ever allow that. Um it's there are two fundamental issues. Okay. For one, if you are a young Republican staffer, you're jumping on board to be evil. You're jumping on board because you're a Nazi or because you hate blacks or Muslims or Jews or whatever. You're you're jumping on board because you love evil. And because you love evil, you have a pretty like wide range of tolerance and permission. Uh you have a wide range of what you'll allow. Okay? You're okay with people's Medicaid getting taken away because, you know, black people's Medicaid is also getting taken away. You're okay with um you know, women dying of miscarriages in states that have banned abortion because you're fine with women dying. You don't have a problem. So, as a consequence of their sort of moral um ambivalence, uh you don't have to worry about controlling their behavior too much. Just tell them, "Rep us, make us look good, you're fine." That's why the White House Twitter account looks like that, you know? Um but with the Democrats, you have to run this like weird there's this like really weird inconsistency. How do you get young people who are excited about the Democrats, hard enough as it is, okay? And they need to be progressive, but not too progressive. Okay? Like, they need to be in favor of gay marriage, but we can't mention trans people anymore because that was a no-go for Kamla and Biden. And uh uh uh uh they can't you can't be like queer. You can't be weird about it. Okay. For for two, you can be non-white. uh you're allowed to be non-white, but only if you're white or black. You can't be Asian or Hispanic because Democrats only think white and black people exist as evidenced by their marketing appeals to, you know, um during the president's uh by the presidential race. Um and also like you have to be at least nominally economically progressive, but you have to be okay with the slaughter of Palestinians. Like you have to look in the eyes of Chuck Schumer, a guy who would uh personally butcher uh an infinite number of Arabs if he could, and you have to be fine. You have to be totally fine with him. But then you have to go out and argue for things like justice and equality. You can't really find people who are like this. It's not real. You can't find people that are like this. They don't really exist. There are lots and lots of evil 21-year-old tech-savvy Nazis who will join up to the GOP. There are not a lot of the people that I just described to the Democrats. That demographic doesn't exist. There are a lot of zombie libs, not the right kind, and there aren't as many as there used to be. Also, you can't have a zombie lib because you have to be politically conscious enough to do actual messaging. You're not just a consumer of Democrat media at that point. You're a producer. So you have to be you can't just not think about Israel. You have to get an order like, "Yeah, you're not allowed to criticize Israel." And go, "Yes, sir. Okay, sir. No, I won't, sir." You have to be ostensibly in favor of things like economic justice and like young people mobilizing for a better future. But then when the orders come down, you may not talk about Mamani. You have to go, "Yes, sir. Okay, sir. No, I won't sir." Like again, these people don't exist.

But don't these people believe in nothing? Well, the Republicans also believe in nothing. They're just better at marketing it. Uh, nothing on Mamani. Yeah, what a surprise. Let's Let's take a look at the other one. Hold on. This is the other host, I guess, of the uh Democrats podcast, NATO chief, who is is your friend. Um, he called you daddy earlier. Um, do you regard your NATO allies as kind of children? No, he likes me. I think he likes me. If he doesn't, I'll let you know. I'll come back and I'll hit him hard. Okay. He did. He did it very affection. Daddy, you're my daddy. While we leave Trump to focus on his daddy issues, we're here to tell you everything that you should be talking about today. Look, that that says it all right there. Huh? Here's a clip of Trump being genuinely funny. Okay, now that we're done with that, here's all the talking points that you should have from the Democrats today. Wow, that's incred I I genuinely I couldn't I I I appreciate the offramp just like that. Yeah, that was shockingly transparent. Uh, okay. Yeah, I don't really have anything more to say than that to be honest with you. They need to hire Mandani's media guy. What? So they can have a falling out over [ __ ] Israel or something. No, [ __ ] that. The the the the Democrats, the Democratic establishment at the the national level, um they are evil and inhuman in a way that I don't think the Republicans match. I think that the there's there's something there's like an extra moral sacrifice you have to make because the Republicans are evil and they know it and they act like it. So, for the Democrats to be evil, but then like deliberately incompetent and like they claim to want good things, but they aren't willing to do what would be necessary to support those good things, there's like a level of added inauthenticity. I never feel like I'm being lied to as much as when I look at Chuck Schumer. Do you all agree with that? Is there a single Republican politician you can think of that when they talk you feel the same level of like greasy, disgusting, deliberate, unconvincing, contemptuous dishonesty as somebody like Chuck Schumer? Cuz I can't I I can't I don't know Mike Johnson. I'll argue with you on this. Absolutely not. Mike Johnson is literally laughing uh when he uh when he he talks to the press. Like when he does something evil and dishonest, he's like giggling at how fun it is to get to lie to the press with no consequences. Trump Trump doesn't lie. Trump only tells the truth. Steven Miller. Um I feel like no. Steven Miller is pretty authentic about being evil. You guys are just listing evil people. Like you're you're not understanding the point here. Okay. You need to watch more Chuck Schumer. You need to get more Schumer built. You're just listing people who are evil. Okay? If you want the bio on that blonde lady from that episode, she's just as much of a failure as the guy. [ __ ] me, man. Hannah Mulivven is a Democratic Party staffer and liberal activist, senior communications adviser to the Congressional Integrity Project, which targets Republican Party members of Congress, their associates, and their family members to expose allegedly compromising information about them. [Music] Six committee I don't know. This seems like a weird cut together. I'd be more interested in seeing your LinkedIn. Why are we excluding evil people from this competition? We're not. The question was, does anyone give you that feeling of greasy, insincere, deliberate inauthenticity the same way that Schumer does? Not who's the most evil. If it was who's the most evil, it would probably be Miller. You have to listen. You have to listen before you type. That's not the competition. What has Schumer done to earn your hire? I'm actually just going to ban you for that. What the [ __ ] Go catch up on five years of streams. What? Come on. Is it Is that meant to be bait? That's like That's just an exhausting message to you can't What has Andrew Tate said that's so sexist? [ __ ] you. What the [ __ ] I'm not going to sit here all day. I I started early so I could go to Pride later. Okay. I'm not I'm not giving you an incomplete answer. I'm giving you no answer. All right. All right. What are these clips? Show me the clips. To be fair, there are new people in your streams now. Actual libs that don't know why. Yeah, maybe. Hold on. I'll check the logs. Well, I appreciate you giving me an opportunity to um to take a look. Do you ever get tired of being wrong? Weren't you pitching World War there not 2 minutes ago? Lol W, you got it all wrong. When you lose a war, peace is forced upon you. You think the Iranian regime will survive this? The Ayatollah wants to stop and survive. Why not just say we don't know the level of damage? Vos, did you not call it all war? L W lay off the Dems. They are just old. What has Schumer done that is even remotely comparable? Lay off Pelosi and Kamla. They are political gods. I I I don't think this person is being very sincere. Uh, however, I think I think it's extremely important that we get a hard focus on on solving our problems and that's what people really want. And um, you know, that guy that that won the Democrat I guess that was the Democrat primary in the mayor's race. Yeah. Um, I I've watched quite a few of his videos and he did something pretty unique and very smart. Even though I don't agree with anything he says, he really he really ran a campaign where he talked directly to the people. He was focused on their issues, focused on their problems, and talk. It's Marjorie Taylor Green making sense. I'm going to [ __ ] throttle you. You can't keep doing this every time the red tints red brown. You

can't keep [ __ ] doing this. Okay? We literally just did the Tucker Carlson episode. You can't keep [ __ ] doing this to me. Okay? Talking to the people about his solutions even though his solutions are insane. Rhetorical question. I hate rhetorical questions and they're they're socialist, probably communist, but that's he was talking directly to the people, um, when when we are not talking to the people and not working on the people's problems, we lose the people, and the people will turn elsewhere.

Uh, however, I think I think but if she runs this little media tour, I mean, go for it, you know, [ __ ] good for her. Only benefits Manni really.

Tonight, reverberating this week after 33-year-old Democratic socialist Zoran Mani pulled off a major upset, defeating former Governor Andrew Cuomo in the Democratic primary for New York City mayor. Mani's supporters say he represents just what the party needs. But some members of the Democratic establishment are reportedly melting down over his victory. And Republicans are wasting no time attacking the man who could be New York City's first Muslim mayor. One Republican congressman going so far as to say Zoron, quote, "Little Muhammad Mamdani should be deported," and urging the attorney general to launch denaturalization proceedings against him. His justification, that was a long pause there. Like he couldn't believe, like was that the first time he was reading it too, and he was like, oh damn, we really we really came back like quickly to the insane, I mean, probably worse than post-9/11 anti-semitism, with Mumani specifically a rap lyric. I can't believe I just had just read that specifically. Mumani once performed a song including the line, "free the holy holy land five my guys," referring to men convicted in 2008 of providing material support to Hamas.

And joining us now, Basilmeichel, Democratic strategist and former executive director of the New York State Democratic Party, and Amanda Lipman, co-founder and president of Run for Something. Thank you both very much for being here. Uh, I'm still a little I can't believe the Republican attacks.

Yeah, that that's the word I was going to use. Shook by by uh to be fair, like calling Mamani little Muhammad is one thing, but like there are tons of Democrats who are also calling him an anti-semite and basically a Muslim. If you are a Democrat and you're saying Jews feel concerned for their safety because of Mamani's win, you're being Islamophobic, obviously. What the [ __ ] else are you referring to? Like like yeah, you're you're doing the same thing. Republican response to mom Donnie. But Amanda, we begin the questioning um with you. I just wonder it's one thing to run in a Democratic primary for mayor and to win on ideas of free buses and and other progressive or even dem socialist ideas that Manny ran on and won on, but will they work in come the general general election uh in New York City.

Absolutely. Because he's advocating for the things that really affect people's quality of life. You know, cost of housing, cost of childcare, how you get around the city, how you move, the case that he has made. Yes, the specific policy positions are what are exciting and interesting, but beyond that, it's what the the ideology that's going to drive his mayorality mayorship. Um, he is such a compelling communicator, and the things he's communicating reach a part of the city that haven't really been talked to or about before, at least in a very long time. Um, I am, you know, as a New York City voter, I'm very excited to see the kind of energy he's going to bring to the general and then hopefully to see a kind of mayor lead that that is driven at every part of the bureaucracy by reducing the cost of living.

Basel, one of the things that's so interesting to me about this is kind of the lessons and we all have been talking about Sorry, one second. The BBC tried to block kneecap from saying free Palestine on TV and have instead gotten Bob Villain saying death to the IDF instead. Free free. All right, but have you heard this one though? Death. Death to the IDF. Death to the IDF. We don't endorse this. I live in America where you can be shot for watching a YouTube video where somebody says that. Yeah, that was Mom Donnie performing in um in London. That's not true since it happened for Democrats and that they should take from it. And I feel like it's not that complicated. I like something that y'all do, y'all Democrats do. Y'all make stuff real complicated sometimes. One, if you're going to not want a Democratic socialist to be the nominee for any, you know, whether it's a m municipal race or the presidency, then run a candidate who can beat them, right? Maybe don't run someone like Andrew Cuomo. You know, a lot of his critics turned his endorsers, 40% of his top endorsements by elected officials came from people who publicly condemned him just four years ago. So, there's that. Maybe run a candidate who will actually get out there and campaign. Mom Donnie was everywhere all the time. And it's not just because I'm a, you know, social media kid, you know, like he was everywhere all the time. New Yorkers that I talked to said they were able to touch his hand and say hello and yell at him and disagree with him to his face. Um, and he was exciting. It doesn't mean, and you tell me if I'm wrong, I don't think it means that Democrats need to always run somewhere on the left and side of everybody, right? And Amanda, you and I and I have been talking about this for years, but Basil, what are your lessons? What are your takeaways from this most importantly for like a national audience? Are we thinking too much about this?

No, I look I think everything you said is correct. U more I think the big takeaway is if you're going to run a campaign, create a movement around your candidacy, right? That's really important, right? The fall with Cuomo is just that he was lazy on his politics. Yeah. They're they're 100% going to try to spin Mandani's win. Is that that's that I said they were doing this when they call uh when they say stuff like candidate quality matters, and what they mean there is like oh, the reason Cuomo lost is because he was like uh you know, sex pest uh loser who ran a bad campaign, which is like no, actually the Democrats have no problem at all voting for sex pest losers who run bad campaigns as long as they have good name recognition, which Cuomo did. Uh, Mandani would have easily beaten the rest of the field, and he did beat the rest of the field. He also beat Cuomo. I talk about big ideas. Don't just talk about the same things over and over again. Appeal to uh you know, voters that may not have been touched before. And there have been some recent reports that he has I think Gotham did this report that he actually did well in areas that Trump did well, you know, uh in New York City, right? Uh, because he talked about these issues of as said, he talked about affordability. He talked about um things that can happen and the ways in which they're possible. Now, there going to be folks who are going to say these ideas are ridiculous. There are going to be establishment Democrats, older Democrats, because there was a bit of a generational divide who are going to still want the city to track more to the center. But we have to understand that pock in pockets uh more and more pockets across the country, there is a need for disruptive politics. There's a need for a generational change in that politics. And I'll just say very quickly when I got into this business in the early 90s, uh my mentor used to say every movement becomes an institution. And the reality is that the Democratic Party for so many voters has become an institution that they can't trust. So this institution was in need of a movement. And I think in many ways that's what you saw in New York City.

Basel, I'm going to stick with you here because one of the most interesting things to come out of this election was um um the black vote. Um I'm going to read this headline to you. Mom Donnie triumphed without a majority of black voters. Where does that leave them? Are massive cities going to become city-states? They already seem to be. I as I grow more and more hateful towards um rural people. I I do wonder about this sometimes like the fact that those um slack-jawed ingrates get to benefit from the infrastructure that's funded by cities and all they do is throw like chicken [ __ ] at you know city cars as they drive by. Um like they they existed they made sense back when half the population you needed like strong-backed half-witted farmers or or or you know construction workers or something. But nowadays, uh, they're just a drain, you know? I mean, it's I I think that like, uh, like some of them still might farm, I imagine. But I I I don't really know how many of them. Not enough, surely. Maybe if they were busy with farming, they wouldn't have as much time to be Republicans. Okay. Um, the more of them should be farming, basically. Imagine if they were left to fend for themselves. Yeah. Without cities, they would all die, and without them we would die of starvation. Uh, ex Well, I guess we could just buy food from other countries cuz we produce the wealth. Um, but you know, it's it's it's a symbiotic relationship. I'm just saying that symbiotic doesn't necessarily mean that one side isn't better than the other side. My thumb is hovering over that email sent button. I swear to God. No. Gowski. I just think that for in order for rural people to get the money that they enjoy, the subsidized cash they get from the economic productivity of the cities they orbit around, they should have to drive down to the city and beg for it. Like they should there should be like a panhandle line. You know what I mean? It kind of like when peasants would line up before the king and ask for favors, the mayor should should choose like a few lucky ruroids to receive their subsidies that day, and the rest of them have to go home hungry. Presumably, this would fix something cultural or political in this country. I'm not sure what, but I feel like it would. Here's one piece. A New York Times analysis of the of the results shows that Mr. Cuomo dominated in precincts where at least 70% of residents are black, more than doubling Mr. Mani's support, 59% to 26%. And then here's a very interesting second piece of this quote, the the tough part that we're wrestling with, Reverend Rashad Moore added, is Zoron won with support of liberal liberal progressive white folk. Are these the same progressive white folk that are pricing us out and we can't live in the community? That's the tension. Can I say something very classist and very racist? Um, if you voted for Cuomo, you deserve to get priced out of your community. Sorry. Oh, your families lived there for 112. I don't care. Um, you voted for Cuomo. Get out. Goodbye. Goodbye. On ironic anti-white racism. Yeah, we have to have a broader conversation. I feel like I say this every stream now, but like the old black community in the Democrats really is like the weakest link when it comes to progressive advocacy on average because like it's it's like [ __ ] every one of them, man. Like every black guy 55 or older is like Biden. Yep. Mhm. Harris, yep. Mhm. Cuomo. Yep. Mhm. Like just [ __ ] No. Also, this is racist. Are these the white people pricing us out? We can't live in our community. White people aren't responsible for pricing out New York City. It's New York City. It's a super [ __ ] diverse immigrant, multi-racial, multiethnic, multilingual hotbed. You can't blame white people for pricing you out. Also, if you're so concerned with being priced out, maybe you should vote for the guy who's going to institute rent control. You stupid [ __ ] Jesus Christ.

And clear literally Basil that is the tension. I would love your your thoughts and reflections on on this as someone who used to you be in the leadership of the state Democratic party.

Yeah. And you know what? I'm also a voter that got active when Jesse Jackson ran in 88, right? Because I saw somebody that looked like me on TV saying then that the Democrats were not being responsive enough to people that look like him, which meant look like me. And you know, for 30 plus years, you've had a lot of African-American voters who, you know, were supportive of David Dinkens when he became mayor and so many other candidates in New York and across the country who saw the Democratic Party as a path to political and economic empowerment. And when you have a when you have a candidate and a lot of voters that don't view the party, also another huge ding for um identity politics as being the real enemy of the left. Uh, people saying, "Yeah, I'm tired of um I'm tired of black people getting priced out by white people. White people need to check their housing privilege and their gentrifying privilege." Anyway, that's why I'm going to vote for Andrew Cuomo over a Democratic socialist. Democratic socialist will freeze the rent. No, because I hate white people. I think I'm actually going to vote for the rapist Italian who will [ __ ] make my rent go up 10%. I'm very smart. as being that impactful in different parts of their lives, you're gonna that older voter, that African-American voter is going to say, "Well, I may not trust that candidate because he wants to blow up something that I've come to rely on in many ways and that are uh that also are are there's is the party of people that I care about and trust in you talk about, you know, being seen. That intimacy is important." So they'll see their leaders at these Democratic clubs and, you know, in the subway stations or holding town halls, but there's a whole group, a whole population of voters in New York City that don't have those connections, don't have those ties, don't have that history and those relationships and also see the party as not being responsive to them. So that disconnect, I do think, is both generational and it's also racial. Um, but I but I do think that's the work that he has ahead of him, right? To be able to convince voters, particularly African-American voters, that he's he his policies are inclusive of them and that there's also that path to political economic power. I don't know how much they can be convinced, unfortunately. Like the problem is you're dealing with an an overlap between two things. A lot of these older black people that are voting conservatively are poor, and poor people are stupid. Um, and also they're old, and old people are stupid and stubborn. So, you have like multiple compounding fact. When was the last time you changed the mind of a poor old person on anything? Yeah, that's what I thought. Um, they're simple folk, you know. It's like uh like a like a sort of peasant brain attitude, you know. Or people bring it into the cities from the rural communities. I'll have, you know, it's like a disease. I got one to switch from crack to heroin. Is that good? I feel like that's probably bad. That feels like a downgrade. Yeah, turnout is the only thing that matters. You just you you basically just have to make this block of voters irrelevant. You have to make old black people irrelevant. Which I know some people get catchy when I say this, but like literally nobody would have an issue if I said we need to make like old white voters irrelevant. Oh yeah, you're not going to convince those people. You just need to bring new voters out. Like no one no one would get upset about that at all. Um, but holy [ __ ] man. Old black people went for Quombo. Oh my god. Which we also need to do. I if if a white person is voting Democrat, they're likely to be voting for the more progressive candidate. Um, at least relatively likely. Uh, so it's it's it's difficult. Like I said, white people have an offramp. Old black voters are great in the primary or sorry, horrible in the primary but great in the general. That's true if they vote blue no matter who. But Bernie didn't win. What would have happened, do you think, if a bunch of black voters had chosen Trump over Bernie? By a bunch, by the way, I mean like if it was 8020 or something, you know, we we need to we need to test. Well, I guess we're going to with Mdani, right? We need to test the vote blue no matter who conviction.

Vos, I'm surprised you would go to Pride. You come off as someone who's queer but thinks other queers are annoying. I do. I do find them annoying, but I'm also annoying. So, I'm self-aware enough to understand that like I'm part of that ecosystem. You know what I mean? Like in a fish tank, I'm like the starfish stuck on the on the glass or like the fat one that lays down and you don't realize it's there until it starts moving. You know, like I I'm I'm just part of the terrarium.

Amanda, one of the things that we often see when someone wins a primary is that the leadership of the party and then eventually the rank and file get behind them and say like we're this is who the voters chose in our party. Let's get going no matter who that person is. Um, but dim leadership has been falling short of endorsing him. Schuman Jeff congratulated him um on his upset. You have a lot of leaders who um have issues with things that he has said which they can call him and I'm sure he'd be happy to talk with them about um Bernie Sanders. But they're not they're not upset with the things that that Mandani said because they're curious about what Mani meant. They're upset about the things Mandani said because they're dogs of Israel. Like the like Schumer is not going to go, "Oh, you just meant you're just referring to like the different interpretations of Antifa and like the wide range of interpretations and how it's been used by liberatory movements. I was misunderstood." Anyway, now you have my endorsement. That's not going to happen. You know, like that's not that's not how this plays. Senator um urging Democratic unity behind Mandani said, "Democratic party leaders, you have talked for six months about the need to create political excitement to get working-class and young people involved in the political process. That's exactly what Zoron did. Get behind him." There's also every time that the, you know, moderate wins, they like to tell all blue no matter who. And that doesn't seem to be the case. He will. It's interesting. What does that say about like where the party is and more importantly how they're grappling with what their identity is? And one more thing that it keeps popping into my head is sometimes it feels like the the centrists of the party and sometimes the leadership operate by fear a little bit.

Oh yeah. Right. And what you're seeing is that Mandani does not do that. Donald Trump does not operate and campaign in fear. I think there's a couple things to take away from this moment. One, the Democratic establishment not that powerful. We just saw them lose. They are maybe well they're very powerful at crushing internal dissent. Um, they're clearly very bad at winning elections. Uh, but they're very powerful at crushing internal descent. They're not unbeaten. They're only unchallenged. Two, I think that Democratic leaders who don't get behind Zan in this moment forcefully and do whatever he and his team want, especially the ones who represent New York City, so looking at you, Schumer, Jeff, Senator Gillibrand, who really gone off the rails on this, um, you will be why people don't trust the Democratic party because if someone can win the primary with such a forceful show of presence against the odds and then the party leadership doesn't rally behind the nominee, what are we doing here? Who is this party really for? The third thing I the the oligarchs in Israel. See, that's the issue. Like we know there are many Democrats who would rather lose than capitulate on any of these issues. Like that's that's the problem, right? Like you the the the argument they're making is like, well, what are you going to do? Just lose? Yes, they will just lose. Like Schumer would rather kill all of you than give up on his ties to Israel. Biden, too. You know, like they would Yes, they will just lose. Will not act in the best interest of their party because they don't have the best interest of their party at heart and they don't like you and they don't care about you. So that's the problem that you can't expect their better nature to to overtake and they're like, "Oh, now I realize that the only way forward is through this. They won't take that way forward." I would say is that while leadership may be losing their minds, young people across the country have seen Zorons win and are stepping up to run for office. This has been the through PB biggest driver of candidate recruitment that run for something has seen since inauguration. We've had nearly 4,000 people raise their hands just since Tuesday.

night to say since Tuesday. 4,000 since Tuesday. It's bigger even than the Doge firings or the Schumer shutdown. Which is—is there anything left to the black liberation movement from the 70s? No. Um, the crack epidemic pretty much destroyed it. You had like proud, vibrant, politically um conscious black communities that were annihilated by decades of overpolicing and like every other kid either [ __ ] got arrested or became a crack addict.

Has been our biggest moments yet and it is only growing. It's hundreds more every time I check the dashboard every hour or two. It is thousands of young people who are looking at what mom Donnie did here in New York and saying, you know what, maybe I don't agree with him on every policy, but I too can fight for my community. I can fight to see the issues I care about represented on the ballot, and I'm not going to let anyone tell me to wait my turn.

Yeah. Looks like establishment folks are going to have to get it together. 4,000. Vote blue no matter who. We'll see how it goes. Vote blue no matter who.

Yeah, I saw this the statement from Daniel Goldman uh where he said, you know, essentially, well, I don't like Bumani cuz he's a Jew hater and a Muslim. I know, um, Zephan, you keep posting about it. I saw I saw it the first time and I have the link ready to go. Don't worry, I do read chat. Sorry, I got excited. I know. Can somebody tell me where this is from? Ken just posted this one. Is this from something that hasn't aired on their YouTube channel yet? Is it on CNN's website?

Do you think Democrats over 80 in Congress should retire? Okay, follow-up question. Is this woman 12? Is this girl 12? Does she just look like that? She's a reporter. I feel like I recognize her. Um, she just looks like that. Okay. I've got a little bit of a baby face thing going on myself. I'm not really in a position to judge. It's no hate. Just I think it's time for a new generation of leaders. Did she also just wake up? Whoa. No hate. I think her hair is beautiful. That is—That is very long, very blonde hair. I bet it takes a lot of work to cultivate. Okay. Or not cultivate. I guess cultivate would be growing it—to care for. I don't know. When I had long hair, I didn't really do anything with it. Maintain. Yeah, maintains the good. Isn't she the one that did the MIGTOW thing? I think you're right. I think you're right. Oh, was this one from two days ago? I didn't see this one. Oh, I'll see it. It's only six minutes. So, so just a quick little—We are going to send Andrew Cuomo back to the suburbs.

Zoran Mani built a following with viral videos pitching himself as an unapologetic progressive in his campaign to be the next Democratic mayor of New York City. He says his campaign was—this before or after he won the um the Democratic primary—dropped 30,000 volunteers and knocked on a million doors. But will that translate into votes? Let's win this thing. Tuesday's primary is a test of the Democratic Party's direction following President Donald Trump's victory last November. The party is divided between the older centrist establishment like former governor—leadership within our own party that helped give rise to—to Donald Trump and the affordability crisis. And ultimately, New York City is under attack from both of those things. Thank you so much. If elected mom Donnie would be the city's first—Okay. If it's before the primary, I'm less interested in it then because uh it's—it doesn't force CNN to sort of reconcile with his overwhelming mandate in the same—in the same way. What's on the clips list? Oh yeah. What the [ __ ] is this? This is what you supported. You said you wanted Trump.

Listen, bro. The reason I wanted Trump was because I wanted to make more money. All right. That's why I'm—I'm going to say it. At least I'm honest. I don't give a [ __ ]—At least I'm not sitting here lying. I don't give a [ __ ] who's the president. I want to make more money. I'm a greedy [ __ ]—Okay, at least I'm saying it. I've been saying it from day one. Now tell me why I ordered an $8,000 exhaust and then a week after I order it, I get a call. You got to pay a 57% tariff on it. What? I got—I got to pay an extra over $3,000 when I already paid $8,000 on a [ __ ] tariff. I don't even know what a [ __ ] tariff is. This is what you supported. You said you wanted Trump. When I—when this is what I imagine the entire live streaming landscape is like outside of myself, Hassan and Northern Lion and Joseph Anderson. Um, those are the only streamers that I've watched. I—I think it's all—otherwise it's all this and maybe like VTubers. Dead fish IQ. Yeah, but he looks like five. So, like, who knows? Holy [ __ ] the essay post. Hey, the—why are—Hey, quick question. Why are the stop killing games people so annoying? Like why is it—why can't you just say like this is a thing you should support European? Oh, cuz like unironically every time I see get advocated for, well, you got to grab attention. Yeah, but like by being annoying. Do you mean the stop killing games people? I mean people talking about it. I don't know what the UNF America tour is. You got the right place though. Uh, it's—well known we have a high degree of control over Destiny's community over here. God damn, man. Budapest pride. Baby, give me—give me a man after midnight. Good choice, dude. They're blasting that [ __ ]—Gay people love ABBA. A lot of gay people in Balkan countries. Yeah, I know. I've seen a Balkan person before. They banned pride in Budapest. They banned this pride. Um, apparently there were like a Nazi march was supposed to go on during this time. Uh, but I—I don't see no Nazis. It looks like the homos turned up. Hello, Capella. They have face scanning equipment all along the route of the post that people were warned not to go. People suspect there would be arrests after. Okay. Hungary is not Balkan. Uh, listen, the Balkans stretch from the shores of Normandy all the way to the northernmost islands of Japan. All right? Don't—don't try to get out of it. Anyway, like pretty big crowd, huh? Really makes you uh reflect than how [ __ ] like America is. Like America has way—the [ __ ] more gay people both like in total and per capita than Hungary. And yet for some reason this probably has way more energy there. There's nothing quite like resistance to bring people together. um, they did it in spite of pride being banned in sort of the—the—the threat of arrests. You know, they have a common enemy. It's because of comfort. It's because of comfort. Because even in America today, like in the state America's in today, people are quietly desperate and—and—and—and comfortable in spite. Like they're just, you know, trying to keep in their little rut, keep in their little groove, you know. Um, meanwhile, in Hungary, like the economy's [ __ ] falling apart. It's like the poorest country in the Balkans now, right? I'm telling you, Vosch, people will choose comfort over happiness. No, I'm telling you in the EU. In the EU. Okay, here's the Nazi counterprotest. Okay. [Music] I had a trans umbrella. It—it is a little hardening because—Orban's Hungary has been the model from the GOP on how to take over this country and Orban has failed pretty miserably. Like Orban is super unpopular. He can't meaningfully control the popular. People don't respect him there. Uh, I don't know. He's going to get voted out next election according to polls. Yeah, but will he be replaced with somebody who's meaningfully better or somebody who's like superficially better? Nice event, not threatening enough. Quit laring. You're in a live streamer's chat on the 28th of June. Okay. God damn, man. Quite a success. Definitely aided by the walkability of Budapest. I would love to march down an area that looked like this. I didn't even know there's that many gays in Hungary. Well, they're not all gay here, right? Like a lot of these people are allies, but in a—in a good society, you know, pride should be everyone turning out. Unfortunately, like in my experience, most Pride events in the West just turn into like annoying gay block parties and people have little like booths they sell [ __ ] at. I don't know. I feel like—doesn't get treated much like a protest. Corpo Pride events. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They've got like Lockheed and Boeing and [ __ ]—There were gays from all over Europe. Solidarity. There are Dutch politicians there too. Probably betting correctly that uh—uh—OB—Orban won't have the balls to arrest like foreigners and politicians. Do you like ABBA? Everybody likes ABBA. I like this one the most knowing that they're not walking towards some like big gray parking lot but rather a big beautiful forest. You're still being annoying. Quesus, why is the dancing queen only 17? Is my eternal question. Isn't—Isn't the dancing queen 17 because it's prom? Isn't—I—I—I haven't listened to ABBA since like high school, but wasn't—Isn't it prom? Wouldn't—Wouldn't you be 17 at prom or 18? One or the other? I mean, 17 rhymes with queen and eight—Well, I guess 18 also does. I don't know what the [ __ ] I'm saying. Sorry, I've been watching too much uh Alan Dersowitz lately. Okay, la—last thing I'm showing before I go cuz I got to go. I have to go to Pride. Um, you seen the uh, have you seen the uh—that Alan Dersitz post? Hello, I am a lawyer from Israel and this is my legal opinion. That—that [ __ ] friend of uh, Andrew Cuomo, lawyer of Jeffrey Epstein. Must that be the last thing we see? It's so [ __ ] funny. It's so funny that this like—because the implication, okay, there are two explanations for this. Alan Dersowitz is an old somehow respected, very wealthy, very well-connected lawyer. Okay, he defended Jeffrey Epstein, uh OJ Simpson, you know, um and he has no values, no morals whatsoever. Okay. So, either he is being paid to occasionally argue about age of consent laws. Like that's just a bot opinion to him the same as everything else or it's—he's in it for the love of the game. The age of consent has become incredibly political. About 20 years ago, I wrote an article in the Los Angeles Times in which I said the age of consent for sex is way too high. It's 18 in many states. It was 18 in California. It's 18. I do. Do—Do you think that he waited for Cuomo to lose the primary before posting this? Like Cuomo was like, "Hold off on firing that one, buddy." 18 in Florida. The average age where sex is commenced in California and in Florida is 15. So what the law was doing was making millions of people, literally millions of people criminals every—Maybe his YouTube editor was like, "Oops, forgot the post." Yeah, maybe. I don't have a point or like a segment here. It's just really [ __ ] funny. Wait, that's not how it works. Um, it—it kind of does. Yeah. There—like the—the—the problem with the—the problem with the AOC laws in America is that they should just be raised to 18 state—like not have it be state dependent. Like it seems really weird to have them vary state-to-state—state. That seems pretty dumb. Um, and then just have like a small Romeo and Juliet range and you're fine. Alan Dersuitz straight up opens with these law—these numbers are way too high. So, it's not—I don't—I don't think he's approaching this from the perspective of like, well, there's some legal confounding taking place here. I think he's approaching it from the perspective of like Jeffrey Epstein's lawyer, Romeo and Juliet range. The idea being that like if you have a 17-year-old couple, one of whom is a day older than the other, and then one day passes and the guy is 18 and the girl's 17, that them [ __ ] isn't like statutory rape, cuz that's obviously insane. Um, Romeo and Juliet laws being like, if—if they're close enough in age, it's fine. Which obviously makes sense. That's just intuitively sensible. Meanwhile in the UK. Yeah, we saw this. Yeah, my girlfriend was 18 when I was 17. Your girlfriend's a sick [ __ ]—Free. [Applause] Free. All right. But have you heard this one though? Death. Death to the IDF. Death. Death to the IDF. Death. Death to the IDF. Death to the IDF. Death. Death to the IDF. DeF. It's crazy how like in spite of the statements from their government leaders, the average European citizen is much more anti-Israel than the average American citizen. And the anti—the average American citizen has gotten to be quite anti-Israel. You know, like support for Israel in countries like Spain, France, Italy, not that high. Not that high cuz we get Israeli tourists. Yeah, that [ __ ] sucks. Because all—is—as is well known all Israelis are originally from Brooklyn. So they don't—to—they don't like vacation in the United States. They came from here. Um, they go over to like Madrid or Barcelona or Paris or whatever. Well, either way, Renie Woo, thank you for the tier one sub. Uh, nice $600 from a chaser. Uh, uh, uh, I hope you enjoy the outfits you get from it. And Jazz Dog, thank you for the 2067. Really appreciate that. I, uh, I'm—I'm happy that I finally cleared out my emails. Thank you. Yeah, I saw Skynet. What about $600 from a chaser? Well, presumably the person who donated was a trans woman and uh—and received $600 from a chaser who uh thought she was hot. Uh, and then five of those dollars made their way to me. It's called uh economics. Okay. It's called the velocity of money. Read a book. Is he already reading donos? I have to go to Pride. I have to spend at least half an hour figuring out how to wear a [ __ ] bandana. You can—It's—It's like it's this and then it's—and it's this. That's this. And you tie the—How the [ __ ] do you tie the—or tighten the—Wasn't that a tie knot? Yeah, it's called a neck tie. That looks okay. Yeah. So, tighten it like a tie. Doesn't work that way. No full Windsor. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They tighten the knob pulling the strands that don't move. Nicola, I—I swear to God, you know, I'm right here. The bandanas around my neck. Okay. You pull this one, it just comes undone. You pull this one. It tightens like this. But I don't mean tightening it like bringing it closer to my neck. I mean tightening it like bringing this knot down in size. This knot right here. This—this thing. It's a very particular kind of—Are you going to cuff? Lol. Cuff what? [ __ ] you, Heather. Thanks the five bucks. Try to get it damp and maybe twist it a little bit and stretch to loosen the fibers. Uh, not a terrible idea. Red Baron, thank you for the 5bs. Do you find it's exhausting to listen to these far right-wingers? If I did your job, I'm sure I'd fall into a deep depression. I guess the chat helps. No, I—I—I find it pretty tedious pretty often. Yeah. Um, you know, that's why we're not exactly doing like Ben Shapiro video reviews anymore. Eventually, like it does get pretty tedious, but it's not so much because they're evil or because they lie or anything. It's that like my job is to say innovative interesting things in response. And uh—it's just difficult to do that when they say the same [ __ ] every time, you know? Spencer Howard, thank you for the two—Australian Vector, thank you for the 129 Swedish Cronar. Very kind of you. Treat yourself at Pride. Oh, I always do. Don't worry. Don't you worry. Thank you, George Lucas. Thank you for the 10 bucks. Loved your movies. They're so bad at this. Lauo, have fun at Pride. Thank you, George Lucas. I always knew you were an ally. And Gabbor Benedict, thank you for the 4,490 Hungarian for fortunas, Franks, fish currency—forint. Thank you. Orban wanted to ban pride, but he achieved the opposite. It was the biggest pride parade in Hungarian and maybe European history. People went and protested with them. You look really hot today, by the way. I—I—cementing your legitimacy. The legitimacy of your place at pride, huh? Okay. I see. I see. I see. I see. Pretty phenomenal. Really though. You should be proud. Don't get arrested. Casual sheep gardener, thank you for the five bucks. Heather, thank you for the 20 bucks. I just went out for work in Seattle just as you started streaming LOL. Now I'm heading out of Seattle. So, happy Pride. Hope you enjoy. Missed you again. H. It's okay. Don't worry. Um, you wouldn't have caught me anyway. I—I—I put on a series of elaborate disguises when I go out to Pride. No one will recognize me. Thank you. I really appreciate it. What's with the widow's peak? It's the same as it's been for 31 years. Is it doing something different? Hold on. This is basically like having a mirror. Always looked weird to me. I guess you need to get out more. Aren't widows peaks like pretty common? You don't want it to be too tight. H. It's—It's—It's cute. It's cute. But uh—let me see if I can—This brown one. Matches the shorts. Well, I'm not wearing the shorts out. Okay. H—see I feel like it's too short. Feel like the bright—Is it normal to tie bandanas as neck ties? You [ __ ] are not American. First one was better. Okay. Okay. You said it was too short. Yeah, it's just like it's a—it's a pretty big bandana, you know. It needs to be stretched out more. It just needs to be, you know, I'll throw it in the wash a few hundred more times. This one's indigo diet from Japan. Go for a nice like tonal—nice tonal uh bandana will also be short. Yeah, I've got a thick neck. Just need to balance it out better. This one looks good. Yeah, this one's from wife. It's real nice. Look how thin it is. Well, I guess I can't really show that well. Can you see me through it a little bit? Yeah, you can. If not, you need your eyes checked. Okay, let me do a better job folding this one. You got to fold the bandana properly. Otherwise, what are you even doing? Give it a nice flattening like a—like a dick. Use your dick flattening, sir. It's a—What's a—What's a good length? I don't really have the lengths memorized. That feels about right. I don't think that looks too bad. I like the dots. Me too. Nomatic quills the tier one sub. As a black person, I'm glad you're talking about how conservative black people can be. Literally, nobody talks about how bad it is outside the black circles. It's insane. Yeah. I—I unironically think that it's a little bit racist of white people to like be involved in politics generally, but then they put their hands up and they're like, "Well, that's a black issue." When it's like, "No, it's actually an American issue cuz it's like we're talking about political demographics here. It matters to all of us. You're just being a pussy." Like, I don't know. I feel like it kind of others black people a little bit to go like oh well you can talk about you know white people's demographic because—okay it's one thing to talk about issues that are a matter of racial sensitivity right so for example black crime rates black IQ rates you know whatever the [ __ ] okay these are difficult subjects usually because you need to take like 30 seconds to explain the context of whatever outof context statistic people are throwing around you know but I still understand people being touchy about them. You know, if I was a black guy, I probably wouldn't want to like hear white people running up and down screaming their opinions on the subject. You know, uh unless they were great opinions like what I have. Uh however, black—older black people vote for the more conservative Democratic primary candidate is not a sensitive black issue. It's not something people are racist against black people over at all. That's not—No one attacks black people over that. It's not—it's not a delicate issue. It's just a demographic political thing. It's—It's not weaponized by white people to justify the mistreatment of black people, but it should. No. Beaverhole 69, thank you for the 20 bucks. I really appreciate that. Thank you all uh—uh—for helping me get dressed. It's—It's—I—I think it's cute. I just—It's—Sometimes my neck is so goddamn big, you know? My neck is so dang big. I heard that buried alive. What was that undershirt you're wearing? It's from left field NYC. Saikun, thank you for the tier three sub. Really appreciate that. About to go celebrate pride myself in NYC ever since I run when the vibes have been immaculate. Here's to—Here's to hope. I wish I was there, man. I wish I was there. I wish

Oh, and that's Shelley Marano. Thank you for the incredibly kind $20. I really appreciate that. Thank you, little butterfly. I love butterflies. Much better than regular flies. Just add the butter. Fly with the butter. We had that for ages. Duck and creepers. Mods. I mean, mods and butterflies are like the same thing. Moths are just thick butterflies. Thick nighttime butterflies.

Dude, this shirt is cut so [ __ ] slim. Look at how goddamn usually doubleRL larges are a clean like roomy fit here. You're not supposed to wear this for shorts, but I'm going to do this just to see how it tucks in. Yeah, I think that works. Are you going in those shorts? You should do the white ones. No, I'm going in pants with boots like a cowboy. with the fur. All right, I'm heading out. I don't know if I'm going to be available to stream tomorrow, by the way, because I'm going on a hike tomorrow morning with my beautiful partner.
