Take a look behind the curtain with a real whistleblower in
American Patriot. Prepare to embrace the
uncomfortable truth, because this programme has no time for
comforting lies. Here is civil liberties
enthusiast, Second Amendment defender, and recovering FBI
agent Kyle Serif. Well, hello my friends, and
welcome to the Kyle Serafin Show.
Today is Tuesday, it is January the 9th and we are rolling live
on rumble.com/kyle Sarafin. That's where you can find the
live show. That's where you can find the
live chat. I've already seen you guys going
nuts as we got started. We're going to bring it today.
We're going to bring it with some Ronald Reagan wisdom.
And the wisdom is, it's not that liberals don't know anything,
it's what they know is not so. So that should be worth
listening to because that was a long time ago and it's still the
case and we've got plenty of evidence of that even today.
I used to always wonder why in the world it was that
conservative talk show type people, that newscasters, that
the talking faces and heads and stuff like that were always
saying the same thing forever and ever and ever.
It's because nobody is either listening or the other side just
keeps doing the same. I guess if you're commenting on
the same thing over and over again, it might start sounding
pretty similar. So that's one of the things
we're talking about. We're going to be talking about
guns, which is my favourite. We're going to be talking about
radio personalities, which is interesting.
We're going to be talking about a little, a little piece that
got done because in the meta universe that I live in, which
is that I can watch myself living through the news.
I actually was covered in a news story, which is kind of fun.
We're going to talk about the definition of what a straw man
is and why we keep hearing it. I looked at the the Google
trends just for for for giggles and the Google trends for the
word straw man really kicked up in the 1950s.
And then it slowly kind of been like amping its way up into our
our time frame now where it is just regularly talked about.
But then we got a lot of stuff to cover down on.
We're going to have a good time with it and we're also going to
start off with quick thank you. Over to my friends at Catholic
Vote who underwrite this programme.

Let's get into it, shall we? Let's get Rowdy.
SO #1, the Biden administration is living in sort of this
fantasy world where they are constantly echoed the same
things that they want to hear. And why is that?
I've said it multiple times that when you take people who are
dependent on the federal government, my experience in
government was even though it was a theoretically a law
enforcement agency, which we've sort of debunked, but even if it
was a law enforcement agency, the majority of those employees
are non law enforcement personnel and that means that
they vote this way. Coming directly from Daily
Caller today, federal employees political donations largely went
to Biden and other Democrats in 2023.
This is almost always the case folks.
This is almost always the way that it works.
Go ahead and quote the the article here.
Over 60% of political donations to prominent political
committees made by employees of the federal governments. 15
cabinet level departments flowed to President Biden.
Other Democrats in 2023, they philtre.
The results shows that the individuals listed their
employer as one of 15 cabinet level agencies and they also
donated to the Biden campaign, the Biden Victory fund.
Some people gave to the Trump campaign, some people gave to
the State of America PAC, etcetera, etcetera.
They kind of filtered it out. We're talking about essentially
almost $200,000 in campaign financing done by federal
employees sent to the Democratic Congressional Committee campaign
and Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee between
January and November of last year.
There was a little bit less than half of that went over to Donald
Trump and the Republicans and the Republican National
Committee and so on, 116,000. So they didn't philtre for
everything. They didn't philtre for all of
the possibilities. But it shows overwhelmingly that
there's a pretty much an aggressive a 60% margin in
favour of Democrats in federal employment, and that's not
surprising. And a lot of the jobs numbers
that we're seeing, the creation of jobs that happen in this
economy, we heard about what what Janet Yellen telling us the
other day, like oh, people are out there starting businesses.
It's the people that got kicked out of federal service.
But a lot of the job creations are fake and they are in fact
federal jobs, which means that the the burden of federal
employees is being spread across less and less backs in the
private sector. In my time, this is one of the
things that I had a conversation with the guys at Reuters and and
in in my lifetime. I was born in 1981.
What we realised was the population of this this country
has doubled and there's a couple of things that have not doubled.
We haven't doubled the number of cops in the country, so that's
interesting. In fact, when I was a kid, what
we used to see was that cops used to be doubled up.
You guys remember that if you watch back, if you go back even
to the 90s and watch any movies, watch any television, what
you'll see is pretty stunning compared to what you'd expect
today. You'll see doubled up police
officers who arrive on a call, one person watching, one person
talking. It's pretty standard.
It was always the way it was when I was a kid.
If somebody came and brought home your kid who was in
trouble, which they used to actually do, and maybe they
would just leave it up to the parents thinking there might be
discipline instead of parents waiting for the state to be the
the disciplinarian because they were bad parents.
We're going to cover a little bit of that later on too.
But when when when we talked about that, it was like, yeah,
of course there was doubled up. That's what the second seat is
for. One person's riding shotgun.
You would never do that. They don't have time to do that
anymore. And that's part of the reason
why some of the issues that we have is because we haven't had
cops training in the same way. It's an interesting conversation
with someone who's probably on the political left.
I didn't ask him, but his questions indicated that.
And so we sat down for like 90 minutes the other day, me and
this guy from Reuters, and we're talking about it.
And I'm like, even in your lifetime, you've watched the
population of the United States. He was older than me, doubled
and we have more and more people in federal jobs.
I guess we have more people working in private industry too.
But the percentage is still going dramatically towards more
and more federal employees and they lean aggressively towards
the political left. Why?
Because they are dependent on the federal jobs programme,
which is the federal government, to pay their salaries.
So of course, they think the federal government is the reason
and is and is the right way to spend our money.
It's also very inefficient. The other thing that we've seen
a lot of this is that there's an incredible explosion of
administrative jobs in an otherwise like sort of agencies
and and industries where you don't need a lot of
administration. Historically, you had very few
people that were in the administration of of education.
Why? Because education was a product.
The product was teachers would deliver education.
So we've actually grown the amount of spending that we have
per student, but we've lessened or kept pretty constant the
amount of money that we pay for teacher, and that's not very
good. This actually ends up being the
exact opposite of what the political left hopes it would
be. It's a foolish way to think
about things, but they basically are looking at the most 1st
order consequences, which is that people have jobs, people
need jobs. Now they're getting paid, but
what they don't look about is where that money comes from and
what it does to the rest of the economy.
And so with single and 1st order thinking like this, that's what
we end up with. We end up with really, really
bad spirals that get worse and worse outcomes.
And the people who think that they are making the right
decisions are in fact voting against their own interests,
which is kind of funny. My wife used to tell me this
because she she had a pretty liberal bend growing up and came
out of New York, Brooklyn and whatnot and grew up in an
academic environment where she was on the political left, came
through, you know, a very sort of sensitive and and feelings
and compassion based industry. She's a mental health
counsellor. So there's a lot of that.
And they all think that people who are on the political right
are voting against their own interests because they're not
voting for more subsidies, they're not voting for more
government assistance. They're not voting for more
government monies to come their way.
That's just not the way that people who are conservative,
lower case C, are thinking about the world.
And interestingly enough, that's actually the most hopeful way to
be, because if you're voting for lower taxes on the rich, I'm
going to put the rich in scare quotes here.
If you're voting for lower taxes on the rich, what you're voting
for is that you think that one day you will also have more
money than you do right now. That's an American position.
It's very helpful. If you're voting for, you know,
less government subsidies. It means that you think you're
gonna be able to do things on your own and that you don't want
to be carrying other people's burdens because you have sort of
a sense of autonomy, a sense of agency.
That means you're going to be pushing forward on your own.
Why wouldn't you? It's kind of interesting.
There's another story that popped up.
I had somebody hit it up to me on on Twitter and I wanted to
share it with you as well. It's a story about illegal
aliens and what's fun for me because we're going to actually
talk about Gen Z ers and the complaints that they have about
their economy. And you know, like I said, I
think they vote the wrong way because I don't think they
understand the 1st and 2nd order and 3rd order consequences of
said decisions. But most interestingly to me,
this country is in fact a country of immigrants.
I think we can actually say that almost everybody, whenever I
find somebody that was like, I can trace my family lineage back
to 16 generations and they got here before Smith Rock, it's
like, OK, cool. I can't.
And nor can many of the other people that I know that are
really good Americans. Most of the people that I met in
the military couldn't experience that.
They came here, they believed in America and they served America.
So that's not a bad thing. But the reason why it used to
work, the reason why we have pictures of like, Ellis Island,
the reason why we have these sort of iconic ideas is that
there didn't used to be a social safety net to the point where if
you showed up, you got stuff. And I know this is a drum that
Ben Shapiro has beaten over and over again.
I used to listen to him say that.
And it's like he was 100% correct when he used to say that
you're not guaranteed success, you're just guaranteed to shot
at the journey. Most people who came to America
got crushed by the opportunity, by what they attempted to do.
And the goal was, is that as you got crushed, that you were able
to slowly lift up the next generation so that they were one
or two more steps on the ladder when they got going.
And then they got crushed. Everybody got crushed.
There was only a small number of people that are going to have
the kind of elite money that's OK.
The idea in America is that we didn't have fixed political
classes and that you could travel between those classes.
Families were always rising and falling in the tide of America.
But that only exists if we're not all also caring everybody
else's crap. If we're not caring, like if
you're carrying your own rock and you want to go fast and get
ahead, then you do so. But if you're carrying your
rock, and then if you start getting faster, they give you
another rock. This is something that used to
happen when I was in the military, like if you were a
stud, you usually had to pay for it and good on them because
that's what we want in a group of people that actually has to
operate as a unit, as a team, a small unit that makes sense even
in a community that makes sense, but it doesn't make sense on a
nationwide basis. The wider you spread it out, the
less we're able to articulate who in fact we are helping.
And then we're helping everybody.
We're helping nobody, and it seems pretty true.
Like I said, we're going to talk about Genz.
I've got a young lady who's going to yell at you for a
little bit, which is actually very amusing for me.
So I hope you'll you'll bear with me and you'll you'll
tolerate said things. Let's talk about this little
interesting piece here. I talked about immigrants on
purpose. Here's a little interesting
story and this comes from a US CBP report.
OK. It says according to the FBI,
this is according to federal background cheques.
So it's actually probably the most useful and functional part
of the FBI when we think about it.
The sort of folks that are in West Virginia that are doing
analytical counting and telling us, you know, what's happening
with the the number of crimes and and they're they're
transmitting Interstate warrants and all kinds of other things.
We don't have a real problem with the FBI doing.
They're not running down after fake domestic terrorists.
So that's pretty good. Illegal aliens tried nearly
48,000 times to purchase firearms in the past 25 years.
Now now let's first consider this, because the this story is
actually much more shocking when you get deeper into it.
But on its face, in 25 years, approximately like 2000 attempts
per year, that's actually pretty small.
That means that when people come here, they sort of realise that
they don't have an opportunity to buy firearms.
And in theory, if we were actually truly a conservative
nation that didn't that wanted to apply like the constitutional
benefits to everybody who gets on the soil, then we would be
like, yeah, they could, of course they can buy guns.
Why would they not be able to if they have money?
The problem is, is that one, they're illegally because we
have a system that looks like that.
And then #2, which means they're criminals, right?
Like they're already criminals, they've already broken a law.
So yes, of course they can't do it.
But the second thing is, is that we've also sort of set up this
this idea that they're going to get all this public assistance,
that they're going to be sort of given fake legal status, and
then they're confused when they don't actually have full legal
status. I think there's actually a fun,
there's a fun argument to be made here against the sort of
liberal left and the and the leftist left, if you will, the
progressive left. And it's gonna relate to what
Ronald Reagan says, which is of course the name of today's show.
I think that there is a worthy just pointing out the hypocrisy
of it, that if you think someone should be able to come here
illegally and you think that that person should be able to
come here illegally and possibly even vote since they're quote
unquote paying taxes. I hear this argument made fairly
frequently. They're paying taxes in this
country. So why would they not have a say
in how the tax dollars in the country that they're illegally
in get spent? That's interesting.
Why would they not have firearms rights?
I mean, if they have money and they have people that are trying
to mess with them, isn't that what our country is about?
Aren't we? Are we sort of about that people
should be able to defend themselves as conservatives?
I mean, it's just so it's so funny that if you go look, I
don't think people should break the law.
I don't. People should come into our
country after they've broken the law and they shouldn't have any
access to any of the things that go on in our country once that
happens, OK, fine. Like that's pretty consistent.
That is logically consistent. I can follow where you are
going, but what I can't figure out is how we are dealing with
this goofy leftist brain that says everybody should be able to
come in. There should be no laws, the
border is basically nonsensical and everybody here is looking
for asylum. But those people who are seeking
asylum, that are scared for their very lives, from their
government or from transnational organised crime or whatever,
they should be entitled to come to this country.
And when they do so, the only thing that we don't want them to
have, they can get drivers licences and they can get jobs
and they can go and maybe vote. All these things are all sort of
political causes. Nobody is illegal unless they
want to buy again. Then they got a problem.
Let me read you where I think is actually the most sort of
shocking part, which you're seeing up here on the screen as
well. If you've been reading along,
I'll skip right to it. But again, 47,000 plus attempts
by illegal aliens to purchase firearms at gun shops
specifically in 25 years according to this border group
that's monitoring it. That's not most shocking to me.
What is is it says, according to Customs and Border Protection,
CBP, this is the people that actually do the searches.
If you've ever come in from an international flight or if you
ever come in through a land border, these are the people in
the blue uniforms that are going to ask you if you have anything
to declare and look at your paperwork and give you the stamp
and all that. They said there were 574,000
seizures. There's a little bit more than
that of illegal weapons, including ammunitions, gun
parts, scopes, silencers, body armour in 2023 and the and the
the 2022 number UM was equally equally sort of offensive in
2020 rather in the year before. Sorry, 20/21 was 5952023, was
547 and then in 2022 according to them was 1.15 million.
I don't know why there's such a double discrepancy in 2022.
We must have had a pretty big walk in.
Maybe they were checking less people like that's a pretty big
data anomaly if you look at it. But that's a huge number.
And so let's talk about this Ammunition, OK.
They can't bring an ammunition. Weapons.
They're not allowed to possess a weapon when they come into this
country. Seems reasonable.
Gun parts, depending on the parts.
Yeah, of course, scopes and I've never cared about a scope.
Silencers is interesting, which we normally call suppressors,
but they're called silencers. In the legal ease, we can talk
about silencers or suppressors as being sort of
interchangeable. The idea that you have some sort
of suppression device, which are felonies.
And theoretically, if you come in and you commit a felony that
any one of you or me might commit and we would find
ourselves behind bars for 10 years, how in the hell are they
coming into this country? Are those people all turned
away? It'd be interesting to learn
that the back story on this, this is a single data point, but
it doesn't tell us everything. And what I wish it said is what
happened to these folks once they got here.
Did they get to continue on their merry way?
Or were they turned back and said, hey, we let people come
into this country illegally, but what we don't do is let you come
in here with a silencer or a scope or a body armour or
whatever it is that they're talking about.
It's very interesting. Like I said, the Liberal left,
they are nothing if not inconsistent and that's pretty
fun. It's pretty weird.
And Speaking of inconsistencies, when we do a quick sponsor read
and then what we'll do is we're going to talk about one of my
favourite people who's been inconsistent over the last
couple of years who has really lost his ever loving mind.
Howard Stern, kind of a fun story broke about him and we'll
talk a little bit about that. Let's do a quick thanks over to
my buddies over at patriotcoolerspatriotcoolers.com.
At Patriot Coolers on social media, you guys can find their
products. You can find their website at
patriotcoolers.com. You can use the promo code Kyle,

You can see right there this is a company that loves America
that actually puts the word Patriot right on the website and
right on their products and all their stuff is pretty patriotic
looking just like this one right here.
You can actually see it if you if you look very closely, the
ghost letters that say patriot right here on the handle of my
19 oz Tumblr, this is the good one.
This one will actually fit in the cup holder of your truck or
your minivan. It will not fall out.
It's written. There's the name right there,
Patriot and they have 13 bars on the cup.
And then if you're so inclined, you could also deck it out with
some suspendable icons. I know GOP is in the chat and
you guys can find those. We'll talk about the Dash

patriotcoolers.com and check out either.
They're hard coolers, their soft coolers, their backpacks.
They've got hats and gear and stuff like that as well.
But the the cups, these things are as good as anybody else.
They are much better looking in some ways than the than the Yeti

know if you're going to do what I do.
I hate paying money for shipping so I would rather spend the
money on a product. I'd rather buy more things and
get the free shipping. That's probably why people do
this stuff. In any case, let's talk about
Howard Stern. So here's something kind of
interesting about Howard Stern. Everybody refers to him as a
shock jock. Have you guys, have you guys
heard that term? Howard Stern, shock jock.
Like is he? Is he really shocking?
Is there anything that Howard Stern does right now that is
shocking or has done shocking in a very, very long time?
I don't think so. I think he's he's like kind of a
disgusting, kind of detestable human being about the stuff he
says. But theoretically, he does it
for, you know what used to be for the?
You know, for the listens, For the ratings.
Now it's for the clicks. And interestingly enough, this
story is coming straight out of the.
The outkick. Pretty funny.
Howard Stern in 2024. We are now approximately 4 years
away from the first outbreaks of COVID in this country has
finally gotten COVID and he has retreated back to his basement
where he's basically been for the last four years.
He came out like a Groundhog. He checked out all of the he
checked out all the surrounding areas.
He inhaled once, got COVID and now he's scared again and he's
running back. So he's a self described
terrified of COVID individual. He's one of these people, a
germaphobe who just didn't get it.
He's one of those guys that bought the hype.
And there's a couple of things that broke these minds, right?
The things that broke the Howard Stern's minds types, what do
they do? They had a break with Donald
Trump being elected because God forbid I thought he might have
been one of those guys that was going to move across the country
or move across the country lines rather and go live in Canada.
But he didn't, and he's also terrified of COVID.
He bought the hype, and that's always interesting to me when
someone basically tells me that they can't look at data in real
time and make a good decision about whether or not it's legit
or not. Imagine having all the money
that Howard Stern does and then basically just hiding.
Here's the other really funny thing about the Howard Stern
situation, which I just I can't get away from.
If you're Howard Stern and you are theoretically a, he says I'm
I'm a woke MF is one of the quotes about him.
He's on team woke 100%. The thing that is so strange
about Howard Stern is the only way he can live in his little
basement bunker with all the money that he has.
And I believe he lives in New York.
The only way that he can do that is by stepping on the backs and
taking advantage of the poor people who have to deliver his
food, who have to go out into the world and, you know, grow
the food and harvest the food and put the food on a truck and
drive the truck across the country and bring it to some
store. And have some other delivery guy
come and pick it up from the store and come into his house
and knock on the door and leave it into the special little
compartment that he has that has a airlock or whatever other
crazy crap he has. Every single thing that allows
Howard Stern to exist is because other people are willing to be
in danger of the thing that he is deathly afraid of.
And he can't look at the obvious logic that look, well, like
everybody else is running around in the world.
And they're able to facilitate my stupid lifestyle.
They're able to make sure that I'm alive, and I can't see that.
That means that I probably will be OK too.
He can't actually look at the overwhelming logic, which is
that he's still alive because other people in the world are
still alive. The world is OK.
It continued to go on, and so now he's going to basically hide
back in his basement. There's something really pretty,
pretty amazing about that. He's got COVID, despite having
all the shots, I'm sure. Right.
That was one of the things he said.
And so now he's going to have to sit there in his basement bunker
living like a Leech on the other people.
That's exactly correct. Bill T in the chat just said
he's a Leech, and that is a great way of saying it.
He is leeching off the others, but he's got the money he's
paying him. It's a fair, you know,
commercial transaction. If you want to be a weird
recluse and live in your house, so be it.
But he's able to do that simply because of, like I said, people
who are willing to face down the dangers.
And then he's going to have to deal with.
The problem with is that he's still got COVID despite the
shots like everybody else. And he didn't die like everybody
else who did or did not get the shots.
Tack penis throwing a quick little rumble rant in here.
Coward Sterns make it trend. That's very good.
That's good stuff. Sometimes you guys just have it.
That's it. Coward Stearns.
I very much like that. If you want to put that
somewhere on social media, I will 100% boost your signal
there. I just love it, he said.
I want to announce something. Here's Howard Stern's
announcement. I just want to announce
something. COVID is really bad.
You do not want COVID OF. Yeah.
Nobody is sympathetic for this guy because he's an A hole.
If you're an A hole, people laugh at you when things happen
to you that are bad. It's not a good way to be.
It's not a Christian way to be. We should probably pity him.
It's the right answer because imagine being so scared.
I I can't even fathom it. I cannot fathom being so scared
that I stayed in my house like there was a zombie apocalypse
outside and then watched everybody else live life around
me and think this is fine, I'll just wait them out.
When you're however old Howard Stern is, he looks at like 1000.
He looks like basically a walking skeleton.
People say all kinds of nasty stuff.
This this outkick article is actually really funny.
So if you guys want to go and have a little bit of palate
cleansing, if you want to have just kind of a moment where you
can kind of laugh about it, this guy calls him a simp and he said
it's time to go back in the lock down.
This is how it ends. He said, this is, this is a
great pretty, pretty good comparison.
Today's Howard Stern is what happens when years of fear and
indignation take over and already neurotic figure he's
Stephen King with the microphone.
He's Keith Oberman with the wife and slightly less care case of
psychosis and now he's headed back to the basement.
It's time to go back to the lockdown, Howard Stern said.
Coward, Stern said. I'm just merging.
And now I'm going into lockdown again.
What a sad, what a sad life if they all did this.
By the way, that's but what Biden did in 2020 when he was
running against Trump. They all did this.
They saw something. They panicked.
They tried to move forward, this narrative, and a bunch of us
didn't buy it. A bunch of us couldn't buy it.
So it is what it is. It's a it's a it's a sad moment.
Let's kind of take a little breath and and let's see what we
think about this little scenario.
Let's let's Here's some, Here's some reflections from our former
president, and I think it is always true.
It's true, just like this, like it was the day, he said.
It But seriously, what are we doing to those we seek to help?
Not too long ago, a judge called me here in Los Angeles.
He told me that the young woman who'd come before him for a
divorce, she had six children, was pregnant with her seven.
Under his questioning, she revealed her husband was a
labourer earning $250 a month. She wanted the divorce to get an
$80.00 raise. She's eligible for $330 a month
in the Aid to Dependent Children programme.
She got the idea from two women in her neighbourhood who had
already done that very thing. Yet any time you and I
questioned the schemes of the DO, gooders were denounced as
being against their humanitarian goals.
They say we're always against things, we're never for
anything. Well, the trouble with our
liberal friends is not that they're ignorant.
It's just that they know so much that isn't so now.
They just know so much that isn't so.
The things that they are convinced of, the things that
they know to be true, are obviously not true, and their
life is evidence of it. What a terrible thing.
You heard the story and and whether that's an apocryphal
story or or a real story is irrelevant.
It's a man making $250 a month, which apparently used to be
enough money to live on, or at least come close.
So that's kind of incredible. And then the woman wants to make
80 bucks more a month. 20 bucks more a week by divorcing him.
That's the way they decided to move up.
They were incentivized by the federal government to destroy,
you know, a union that they probably swore in front of.
God and man, that's really hard to hear.
It's hard to think about it. And it's hard to imagine that we
all subsidise that sort of idea. Because wouldn't it have been
better for her to pick up a small part time job?
Would it have been better for him to find additional work to,
to develop a skill set, to know that things take time?
That's sort of the American value.
We're going to talk about how many people died trying to
achieve the American Dream as we end this thing.
And I think it's also relevant to note that people came here
knowing they may not be successful.
I, for some reason, I was thinking about the the story of
Rocky today and why it's like the quintessential American
story. He's a bum, right?
He's he's just this guy, he's like at a meat packing plant and
he's got like, who is he? He's just this dude that wants
to be a boxer and he thinks he's got some skill and he's not the
best, but he has the biggest heart.
That's kind of the story of America.
That's why Americans really love the story of Rocky.
It's it's plucky, it's against the odds.
And it is. And it's where you just decide
I'm I'm going to be successful or I'm gonna die trying.
And Rocky basically puts it all on the line every single time to
do that. That's that's kind of why.
That's kind of why he's the great kind of American icon and
even the the franchise that followed on, even though they
did the reboot, same ideas, honestly.
Urban kid in a in the thing about Adonis Creed and whatever
else the the the the movies 1-2 and three are actually really
good. They're pretty moving and I
think they're good stories because they're based on the
same premise which is that one America is a country of dreams
and that people who are willing to work their fingers to the
bone and try the hardest and have a skill set will be
successful and some people won't.
Not everybody wins in Rocky, you know, he loses his trainer.
People die of heart attacks. Bad things happen left and
right. Some people succeed, some people
don't. We focus on the ones that
succeed, but a lot of people have to fail too, and that's not
wrong. That's just the world.
It's a fallen world. That's what it means to be in a
fallen world. Very interesting to me.
A couple of other things have been kind of going on here that
are continuing to be the the story I told you the narrative
is going to be pushing. We talked about narrative
yesterday. Today we're going to be talking
about the straw man. These words have meanings and
they are used appropriately. They are being used more and
more. Straw man stuff is going to be
basically fighting against fake enemies, which is now what the
members of the media are doing on behalf of the Democrat Party.
It's pretty obvious to me that that is the case.
And here we go. Let's talk about this.
And election deniers, We're gonna hear about it again.
These are people who literally will not deny the elections.
As long as they're the ones that lost, they are going to go after
and make it like like you're crazy.
So this is an opinion piece from MSNBC.
We got a couple little MSNBC. I got a clip from yesterday
which I meant to give you guys and I've got it for today.
It's it's so good. It has to be played.
This one says with so many election deniers in Congress,
who needs a mob. The argument is, is that forget,
look at this, they jumped in a day from January 6th, did they
not? They literally jumped from all
the Americans that would have voted for Trump are dangerous
and bad and and and we shouldn't have them like they're the
threat to democracy. This democracy thing which is
also coming up later. They're the threats to
democracy. But forget them.
Let's just go to the people they actually elected in a democratic
way. Let's talk about Congress like
those people are also problematic.
It's it's borderline incredible. It's a pretty great picture of
Trump, too. By the way, is it not like
sometimes you just like. I found this fun little shot and
it was. In their article, it says
roughly 1/3 of the current House and Senate 171 members in total
are election deniers, according to new research from states.
United States United is an organisation run by Joanna
Lidgate and she is a Co writer of this particular op Ed.
And it is also Co written by Norman ISON who was the
impeachment counsel to the House Judiciary Committee going after
Donald Trump. So obviously they're not willing
to slant themselves in any way, shape or form.
And the most amusing thing is, is they're pushing this, this US
versus itself, the Civil War narrative.
You're hearing Civil War stuff cop pop up a lot and I was
trying to figure out why Democrats would want to be able
to make that one of the topics that trends and my guess is
because they're going to have to run on race relations again,
this failed idea that white supremacy is so prevalent.
We're going to cover that in a minute And and so maybe that's
what's going on here. They want to bring back the idea
that some people, some people are still white supremacist in
this country. And that's why you must vote
Democrat. That's why you must vote for
quote, unquote democracy. And in doing so they basically
say, but also we have all these people who are democratic
elected and that's bad democracy.
Democracy is only when you vote for us.
So this is the actual piece that says when we talk about threats
to democracy this election year, There it is again.
Former President Trump gets the most attention, for good reason.
He's declared himself above the law.
They have a hyperlink to that which is nonsense and promises
to abuse power if he wins the second term, of course taking
him out of context. So why not?
The most misunderstood threat actually comes from Congress.
You remember the People's House that Nancy Pelosi declared the
group that are actually representing the probably the
smallest number of people in federal government.
When you think about your elected representatives, we
elect a president, right? We elect a senator or two, but
one at a time, and we elect our Congress person.
Our Congress person of all those people, has the smallest
district, which is your district, which are the people
that live around you. Those are the people that are
actually the threat to democracy because they are inside the very
building where democracy came under attack three years ago,
scores of election deniers still holding power, which is what
they would like to do. That's why there is an
overwhelming attempt to remove these people from the ballot.
That's what we talked about the other day.
They they're literally trying to get these people off because
they're scared of the idea of of democracy, despite the fact that
they preach democracy. And that's fairly stunning.
They're taking aim, at at least Stefanik, who's from New York,
because she did a an interview with Meet the Press, which is a
terrible, terrible show. She said she has concerns about
the J6 hostages, which is about damn time.
It'd be about damn time that somebody says now we can still
have a nuanced take on what happened on January 6th and we
should. Some people belong in gaol
because they were jerks. As long as the people who were
jerks in 2020 got the same treatment, as long as they were
equally investigated, then I think we can get behind it.
I think we would actually have no problems.
And in fact, if these people were investigated the way that
they should be, if they were investigated in and then charged
in Superior Court and faced with like, hey, you broke a window
with the capital. By the way, this guy like raped
two people last night and broke into her apartment and stabbed
some toddler, we'd be like, no, don't really have time for the
the election. Just play out.
Please, please play out $2000. Fix the damn window.
Don't do it again for 2020 days and you're good to go.
But instead we have this really, really fun.
I think I have a poll here that will show you what was going on
with this. Here it is.
This is actually in the piece. There is a live poll.
There's now almost 10,000 votes and the votes are pretty
amusing. This is a live poll from MSNBC.
They are asking their readership, which is basically
me and that a bunch of leftists, and here it is.
Look at this. How fragile do you think US
democracy is right now? I don't want to blow your minds,
but I said not fragile at all because I don't think we have US
democracy. I'm in the extreme minority and
I have a strong view apparently. That's very funny.
But if you look, you just basically like you move the
needle and you see where you're at and the results are on the
bottom right hand side of the screen right now 82% of people
that were polled that read MSNBC think that our democracy is very
fragile. I just want that to sit for a
second. 8382% of people, 11% of people have a moderate view that
it's like neither fragile nor not fragile.
And only 7% of people are on the right hand side.
That just is like, yeah, it's not fragile because we don't
have a democracy, we don't have that, We have a representative
Republic. And apparently that democracy
that they're so scared of is something that they have to
fight by non democratically removing people from the ballot.
It makes my head hurt. I mean it it actually, it
actually blows my mind. They don't know what the words
mean. They don't understand that even
with their tyranny of the majority ideas, the idea that we
would have a straight democracy where we would be 50% + 1, those
don't even workout for their end goals.
They can't. How would they and and they can
never articulate why that would be.
And if it is their goal that the people should just vote for who
they want and whoever is the the closest to win, why are they so
scared that maybe half this country plus one actually likes
Donald Trump more? Is that not the funniest part of
it all? Is that not the most ridiculous
part? Honestly, as you sit there and
listen, you just go, OK, yeah, got it.
Democracy. OK, sure.
And very, very bad. But what if everybody in the
area wants that? How are you going to put a
philtre on democracy? Are you against democracy, my
Lib leftist friends? Here it is.
You ready? It's one more time.
But seriously, what are we doing to those we seek to help?
Not too long ago, a judge called me here in Los Angeles.
He told me that the young woman who'd come before him for a
divorce, she had six children, was pregnant with her seven.
Under his questioning, she revealed her husband was a
labourer earning $250 a month. She wanted the divorce to get an
$80.00 raise. She's eligible for $330 a month
in the Aid to Dependent Children programme.
She got the idea from two women in her neighbourhood who had
already done that very thing. Yet any time you and I
questioned the schemes of the DO, gooders were denounced as
being against their humanitarian goals.
They say we're always against things, we're never for
anything. Well, the trouble with our
liberal friends is not that they're ignorant.
It's just that they know so much that isn't so.
They just know so much that isn't so.
And what they know is, is that we cannot allow democracy to be
democracy and allow the possibility that people
democratically would like Donald Trump more.
It hurts. It hurts my brain.
Thinking about it not nearly as
much as this next clip. I have another clip here which
will be kind of fun. But like I said, the if it
wasn't for double standards, they say that, you know, that
people on the political left wouldn't have standards at all.
It's just that they. I don't, I don't think they even
know what it is. They are saying the things that
they know are not true. We don't have a democracy.
And if we did, they don't like democracy.
So even if you were to accept their premise, it no longer
makes any sense to them. And that's kind of fun.
There's another story, which I think I have up here, which will
play a clip from just a second. But this is, this is coming from
Stephen Coulton. Stephen Collinson is the best.
He's over at CNN. If you guys don't read Stephen
Collinson, you're missing out on, you know, basically wanting
to vomit every morning. This is pretty funny.
Trump's immunity appeal sends a stark message about his plans
for a possible second term. OK, remember, this is the party
of democracy talking here, right?
Like, these people love democracy, don't they?
So what is going on here? They are concerned that Donald
Trump will again try to stretch the powers of the presidency,
which is something that leftists do every single time they do.
They rule by the pen and the phone, right?
They want to do by executive order.
They want to go around Congress if Congress won't act.
And now they're worried that Donald Trump is involved in a
high stakes court gambit that if successful, would place him and
anyone elected to president above the law.
They're sort of fine with you being above the law if you're
president. Obama could be above the law,
and that would be great. They would love it.
Biden's a little bit more troubling because he doesn't
know where he is, but if he did know where he was, it would be
great. They'd be fine with it.
But Donald Trump is a major problem given that the 45th
president's off stated beliefs that he had near omnipotent
powers when he was in office. I never once heard him say that,
by the way, and that he might be still entitled to them.
That's also pretty an incredible claim.
No fact cheques on this, by the way.
No hyperlinks. The history making spectacle
about to unfold is not that surprising.
The forerunner for the GOP's nomination said he will be in
the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia and he's
going to, his argues are going to argue that he had absolute
immunity from prosecution for his federal election
interference case 2020. Now, what they are actually
arguing is that when you're a federal employee and you're
working in the scope of your job, this is standard qualified
immunity stuff. If you are working within the
scope of your job, then you are covered under the scope of your
job and you cannot be prosecuted.
That seems like almost common sense.
The idea that they want to change that is specifically
because they are dealing with Donald Trump and they are
terrified that a Donald Trump will be democratically elected
again, maybe again, again, right?
On Monday he made similar claims of immunity in Georgia while
he's trying to dismiss state level criminal charges against
him, which stems from his efforts to subvert the election
in a swing state. Here's the real problem.
If if we believe that the federal government is the most
powerful, which leftists love, they absolutely love it.
By the way, the picture they show of him is him and Nixon,
which is quite funny. They, if they believe that the
federal government is the ultimate authority, that it does
have the Supremacy Clause, which rules out that anything you do
as a member of the federal government that is scoped under
your job is absolutely not prosecutable underneath state
law. That's the way that it works.
Let me just tell you about how qualified immunity was briefed
to us when we were federal agents, because theoretically
you could run afoul of all kinds of state laws as an FBI agent,
as a Secret Service agent, as a US Marshall.
DEA, ATF, you name it, You work for DOJ.
You're a federal agent. You don't go get a permit in any
state that you're assigned. You don't do it.
You don't have to. You can.
I guess, but I don't know anybody that did add.
On top of that, you also are not required to obey state laws when
it comes to things that are part of your duties and your jobs.
You're not a state peace officer, and yet you can take
people's freedom. How do you do that?
Because the Supremacy clause that the federal law, the law of
the land that is above the state laws in this case, that's the
way that it's read. You're able to do whatever you
need to do, carry a gun, lock somebody up even though you're
not a police officer, even though you don't have peace
officer status in that state. Many people do not, and my
buddies who are in the chat can attest to it.
That theoretically can go wrong. In fact, there was actually a
video trending yesterday, which is an old video of an FBI agent
who was investigating a guy in Florida for public corruption.
He looked like a doofus because he was old and he was doing
weird things. But he goes out there, he gets
arrested by the local police officers.
Those local police officers were probably involved in the
corruption. That's probably not good for
them. And that guy was vindicated,
even though he was an FBI agent. And you don't have to like FBI
agents in general. He was doing what I used to do.
He just did it in a weird way and didn't know how to
articulate himself. He was acting strange and so the
local police officer took him into custody.
But that's not something that we have to worry about.
That guy will be vindicated whatever, whatever charges he
faced locally will be kicked away.
What happens is is DOJ comes in, adopts those charges as federal
charges, and then dismisses them under qualified immunity.
That's what should happen normally in a constitutional
Republic where we actually believe that the principles of
this country stand. But they don't want to do that.
They want to pick and choose the way that it gets implemented,
and that's very problematic. They also want to pick and
choose the facts. The facts cannot be consistent
or regular. They cannot maintain the the
standard. They have to have this
narrative. I got to play this.
I was going to play this yesterday.
This is one of the funniest clips that I've seen.
I want you to watch the face of Michael Pinone.
I want you to watch his face and you tell me if he's trying to
either not vomit or not start laughing.
Here we go. This is what we missed out on
yesterday. Is Michael Pennone, former DC
Metropolitan Police officer, Courage for America, council
member and author of Hold the Line, the Insurrection, and One
Cops, Battle for America's Soul Officer for None.
I'm going to try to get through this.
Thank you for what you did three years ago today.
Please tell me your thoughts on this third anniversary.
I'm We are still in the midst of the the same fight that began on
January 6th, 2021, and we have a lot of at stake in this country
and I think that it deserves every American's attention.
It deserves every American's attention, this fight for the
soul of this nation. Now that that's actually a
couple years ago, talking points, if you don't recall,
that was actually what Joe Biden was into.
Pretty weird. But I was really curious.
I couldn't help it. I wanted to know, who is this
guy, this Jonathan Capehart? So I did.
You're welcome. Here he is.
He's on. He's a writer for.
He's an editor over at Washington Post.
This is like a double whammy. So you work for MSNBC and you
have this show there. And then also you write for Wapo
or your associate editor there. And then I was like, this guy is
crying about something that is not emotional.
Is he just, is he effeminate? Is he gay?
Like, what's his deal? And of course he's married to a
man. And then I found something very
interesting. His, his so called marriage was
performed by former United States Attorney Eric Holder.
So totally, totally like a good source of information.
This is not a partisan guy that is not politically connected.
Can you imagine getting the former attorney general to come
in and do your civil union or whatever the heck it is?
Just knowing that you can now go out there and watch that clip
with a little bit more information?
That's why he's crying, I guess. I don't know.
Like I when I grew up, even some of the gay guys would like, be
guys. This guy is the opposite of
that. So it's really sad and really
weird, but it tells us what's going on.
It explains to us a little bit about how this country works and
man, ain't that something. Let's talk about how bad this
can go. So we should, we should probably
do a little quick. Thank you to my buddies over at
4 Patriots. You never know how sad ways this
thing could get. It could get real, real weird.
Check out four patriots.com. The number four
patriots.com/kyle. That's the promo code, Kyle.
It'll save you a couple bucks on these different packages.
I threw some cool graphics up there.
They've got all kinds of neat products and so I just wanted to
show you a couple of them that are out.
They've got a Liberty radio, which is a hand wine crank
radio. When I was a kid, that was
always the thing that you always wanted to make sure you had
that. Sort of like you can wind it up
and it'll actually hold charge and then you can listen to the
AM formats. In fact, every single disaster
movie I've ever seen, they always had one of these things.
Kind of neat. You could throw batteries in.
That's cool. Different types of batteries
gives you different because you know, you can scavenge these
ones, have carabiners on them, you can throw on a backpack or
whatever, but you can also like wind them up and like hear the
world coming to an end, which is kind of what people would do
with these emergency radios. You just get like, whatever that
AM band is saying that the zombies are inbound.
This is how you do it. You guys go to 4 Patriots, the
number four patriots.com/kyle or four patriots.com.
You can click through any one of their links, use promo code Kyle
to let them know that we sent you, and then they've got a
little power supply. Look, coms are a really big deal
in any emergency. Anybody knows it if you don't
know what's going on around you. In fact, we had some pretty wild
wind storms here in Texas yesterday and it was getting
kind of funky. And it's like, hey man, we
better turn on either the radio. We don't do TV here, flip on the
Internet, or check out our phones.
And if you don't have power for those, things are going to be in
bad shape. So check out some of the options
they have for continuity of power, for continuity of coms in
God knows what is coming in the next, let's call it 18 months,
because I think in January about a year from now, we should have
a pretty good idea how spicy things could get.
Check out four patriots.com/kyle.
All right, So what a weird, what a weird thing.
So we know that democracy is fragile.
We know that Trump could be president for life.
So that's really scary. And what are the real things
that are happening in the world? Like I said, they're finding out
that that hundreds of thousands of people are trying to smuggle
guns and body armour and stuff into this country.
How about some other stuff that's going on?
And this one kind of bothers me. I don't know why this is not
being covered in a much bigger way.
It does seem like it's something that we are not going to forget
here on the political right. How about Anthony Fauci?
This is coming from just the news.
John Solomon's outfit written by Madeline Hubbard.
And it says Falchi is likely to be asked these 10 questions
during a two day conscripted interview that's happened this
week. They're transcribing the
interview with Fauci, who was the top Dr at the National
Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
We kind of forget what it was. He retired in 2022 and these are
some of the questions that they wanted.
I put up #4 because I think it's really relevant, but let me hit
a couple of them. Gain of function research.
Were you aware of it? Did you push the theory that
COVID origin happened in nature and not from a lab leak?
These are all really important questions because they go to the
government lying to us and we should be actually pushing for
that information. When did you first find out that
members of the intelligence community, including the FBI and
Energy, thought COVID was likely originating in China and also
that it had a lab leak? Here's the number one that I
threw up there because I know this whistleblower.
Could you elaborate more on whistleblower allegations that
you visited the CIA headquarters and potentially influence the
agencies COVID Origins investigation?
That should be really problematic.
And and I haven't heard enough about this guy, this
whistleblower that came forward and shared that there was
basically an incentivization programme for analysts to to say
things that they knew or believed to be false.
Then they wanna know something. Apparently there's a backside
which I did not know this this is worth knowing that there's
the Bears that many of us have heard of the Bears thing.
In fact we probably never heard of it if you weren't kind of
like on the vaccine train and paying attention to the RFK
junior types. But there's a vaccine website
that's called Bears. It's Vaccine Adverse Events
Reporting System and veers is basically self reported and
medical professionals go in and do some stuff like that.
Apparently there's this quote unquote secret back end to it
that only the regulators of that report can access.
I did not know that and this was actually news to me and I want
to know how big it is. And so that's one of the
questions that Madeline Hubbard is asking here.
I think that's very important. How big is it and what does the
government know? And what are they not sharing
about the the negative events that are happening with the
COVID vaccine shots. Big deal.
How much did you weigh in on Operation War speed That's kind
of like a did you know that the COVID task force, You know, how
did you happen to be someone who who went between Trump's
administration and the Biden administration.
How did he get on Trumps? I guess he probably conned his
way on there because been there long enough.
And of course, Biden found out that he was on team whatever
that is, team lockdown and tyranny anyway.
How much do they weigh in on school closures lockdown similar
things. What was your advice
specifically they want to kind of peg him down on potential
lies potential perjury because he says certain things that
probably are not true. Definitely was covering himself,
it looked like. And then why do you support
vaccine candidates for employment education?
This is a question that we cannot let go.
We can't let it go, we cannot let go.
That they destroyed many of you out there who listened to this
programme. Many of you had your lives
absolutely turned upside down by stupid junk non science about
masks, about shots that were never likely to work, that were
being demanded of you in an illegal way, especially if you
were in the military. Those were unlawful orders,
especially if you were in law. If you were in a in a civil
service job, you know how I know that the federal government knew
it was crap when they did it? Because they withdrew their
lawsuits, they didn't get Supreme Court decisions and the
Supreme Court, like a bunch of chumps decided that they were
going to basically allow the government to escape 3 on this
and say they didn't have any more standing because the point
is moot. Like the government withdrew its
mandates despite the fact that it destroyed lives.
Thousands and thousands of employees just in my own agency
from the FBI got destroyed. They were outed as so-called
conservatives, people who wouldn't get with the programme.
That is unacceptable. We cannot live in a world where
that's the case. But if we do, what we're going
to see, I think what we're going to see is what's going on in
places like Canada, where they just run over roughshod the rule
of law. I saw this video I wanted to
share with you. It's not strictly speaking,
related to what we're dealing with in our country, but I think
that Canada oftentimes is the harbinger of what the political
left would like to bring us. Check this one out.
Where this cop, I mean, shame on him.
If you think cops are going to line up with you, I'd like to
think they would too. There's a reason why we believe
in the last line, but those people have to believe in
themselves too. The last line, whether it be
blue, red or green, those are our our military or law
enforcement, our first responders.
A lot of them are not going to line up there do with this guy
did check this video out. Freeland How from the IRDC is
not a terrorist group. Why is your government
supporting Islamo Nazi? Excuse me.
What are you doing? Sorry, What are you pushing me?
You're under arrest for assault. You're under arrest for assault
police. You're under arrest.
You pushed into you. But I was just scrubbing with
you. I thought my credentials here
and you just bumped into me. So please, you're under register
name and your bag. What is your name in your bag?
Why am I under arrest? He brought my way what I would
just swimming. Christia Freeland.
I'm a police officer. You're under arrest.
What is your name and your badge number?
Assaulting a police officer. How is that possible?
Because you assaulted me three years ago.
When? Black face you being always
asking questions aggressively. No, no.
And we're almost pushing everybody.
Alright, here goes. Lincoln, you thought this on
video, right? He's saying I'm pushing people
over. Yeah, that's an absolute
falsehood. There were there were feet were
shuffling. So now it appeared that way.
That's what you're saying. Officer appeared was pushing
people. I wasn't.
I didn't touch a single. Person that was a little bit
aggressive for what was happening.
Get that you got it Got You're under arrest.
Please take a microphone out of. My face, Well, I'd like.
So, you know, they don't have the courage of their convictions
because they're still talking to this guy, they're trying to
deescalate or whatever the hell it is they're doing right there.
But they they are claiming anytime you see a cop basically
fall back on police, you're under arrest.
Look, you either say it or you don't say it.
Either put somebody in cuffs or you don't.
But they do, is they they drag him away.
And then later on if you watch this video, you guys can go to
Rebel News and check it out yourself.
They they they grab him and they twist his arms.
This guy's not like he's just standing there trying to figure
what the hell is going on. Holding on to his microphone,
you know, should if he's under arrest and if it's legitimate,
then you probably are resisting. But at the same time like, shame
on these guys. Like there's ten of them.
There's ten of them to stop one reporter asking a question that
was a little bit uncomfortable. And for me, that's what tyranny
is going to look like. That's what they want.
They want to be able to shut down speech that doesn't play
fair with them. They'll do it through
censorship. They'll do it through police
means if they can get it. And like I said, that's why
Fauci can't be left off, left off the hook.
We cannot let the guy off the hook because he was one of the
people that basically empowered and enabled a bunch of Teddy
Petty tyrants like that. Kind of a teddy bear too but
petty tyrants who who just were looking to flex those
authorities. You gave me some authorities
that I didn't previously had game on.
They're going to go after it. Really gross stuff and and all
of that sort of leads to why I I guess because you can't run on
record. You have to run on some fantasy
world. So here we go.
This is Joe Biden's thing. He just was in the the church
where where what was that guy's name on Dylan?
Dylan Roof shot the church members, and he's he's courting
critical black voters in South Carolina while decreeing
decrying white supremacy. There's a couple of really weird
pictures of him. He looks confused as usual,
maybe coked up or whatever it is.
Whatever the the cocktail is, he looks, it's the rage cocktail
and not the loving cocktail. He's courting black voters that
he needs to win for reelection. Biden says that he denounces the
poison of white supremacy in America at the site of the
deadliest Oasis church shooting in South Carolina, saying that
the ideology has no place in America, not today, not tomorrow
or ever does anyone. Is anyone arguing in favour of
white supremacy? Like is that a position that
they think they can. This is called the straw man,
folks. This is what it looks like.
It's like, right, You know, he said white supremacy is a poison
that is too long haunted this nation.
This is there's no place in America.
And you're going OK, dude, Yeah, we know because we lived through
the 80s and the. 90s in the early days on.
Nobody's out there arguing, friends.
Use Twitter true, social and. But nobody else.
Kyle. Nobody is saying this.
I love it when he says so. Let me be clear, cause that's
always like the thing I despise the most.
Here's here's something coming in that nobody's going to debate
him on. So let me be clear.
For those who don't seem to know slavery was the cause of the
Civil War. There's no negotiation about
that. That's the straw man set up.
By who? Oh, Nikki Haley ain't.
That's something we talked about, how Nikki Haley is kind
of the Trojan horse to sneak some of these ideas.
And isn't that interesting that she's the one right there?
I don't know, man. It's bizarre.
It's bizarre to listen to it. It's so strange to think that
they would be making that argument and somehow they think
that is compelling. But Joe Biden doesn't.
You know, if he's not fighting straw man, what does he
fighting? Probably nothing.
You can't do it. So let me let me pull up a straw
man. Here it is.
This is what the straw man looks like, folks, right?
Intentionally misrepresenting the position that is set up
because it's easier to defeat than the opponent's real
position. That's what's going on here.
It's a fake, soft, nonsensical, cartoony type argument against
something that's not real. Nobody's actually making the
argument that white supremacy is the way to go.
And so if you're gonna beat up the straw man, you might as well
have a straw man do it right? Joe Biden seems pretty strong.
I mean his he's one of those. If he only had a brain types, I
think that would have fallen into the rotting bag of oatmeal
thing that Dan Bongino always says.
So straw man fighting straw man seems like a fair fight.
It's just also pretty sad to watch, and it's sad that that's
where our country is. And what it leads to is a lot of
frustration and fury because he's getting people whipped up
and angry about things that are not real and that's sad.
It's not cool to watch for me, and it leads to poor women like
this. Yeah, this this gal looks.
I mean, I'm. I actually feel for this girl
because her life sounds like it's rough.
But also, I almost guarantee you that she bets for open borders.
Or she votes for him and she votes for more and more stupid
government assistance, which just drives her further down.
We'll talk about the the sort of the 2nd order consequences.
Here's this, Gen Z or yelling at you, I boot.
I assume Grown-ups because you have it too easy.
You had it too easy 20 years ago.
Things were way easier, obviously.
I guess she doesn't know that 911 happened then and things are
pretty bizarre. So here we go.
Let's Jen Z yelling at everybody.
I cannot stand how the news has been dogging Gen Z and calling
them lazy for not wanting to work 9:00 to 5:00 for the rest
of their lives. Let me put it in perspective for
everybody who's a little confused here.
OK? I work 5 days out of the week,
40 hours a week. OK, I do not make enough to live
on my own. I would not make enough to pay
rent, water, electric and eat all by myself.
I would not be capable of doing that. 20 years ago when you were
getting started, you could live on your own. 20 years ago when
you first started, you were able to do everything that I'm now
struggling to do. We had another perspective here.
You've been working for 20 years.
You have 20 years of working experience behind your belt.
You have 20 years of experience in a career that has allowed you
to gain raises to get more money to profit you in an economy that
you created. You could sit here and you can
call Jen Z lazy all you want, but I've been working my tail
end off just to barely make it. And perspectively, I don't wanna
do that for the rest of my life. I don't wanna work my tail end
off wasting all of my life working just to barely be able
to pay my bills. And that is what you created,
not Jenz. We're just here getting started.
You've been doing it for the last 20 years.
You tell me how it got ruined. We could sit here and we can
call Jen Z lazy all you want, but you let the economy turn
into what it did. You let it all run to hell and
now it's Gen Z's fault because we don't want to work to fix
your mistakes. It's your fault, guys.
I just threw up a little bit of America for you to take a look
at. Maybe you guys know about this
kind of stuff. These are people living in
tenement houses. These are people laying the
railroads. These are people working in the
streets in Utah on frontier towns.
These are the people that built this country.
You think that they would love to just not have to bust their
asses as they died swinging a hammer in the middle of nowhere
and then we're buried in the ditch as they rolled over in
progress, kept going. Is that possible?
I'm just saying I think a lot of people would love not to work 40
hours a week. None of these people were
working 40 hours a week. For what it's worth, they were
probably working 80 hours a week and a lot of them died a lot
younger. Some of them died at her age.
They died at her age because there was no other opportunity.
They were building the opportunity and now she's crying
while she's sitting in a car that I assume that she's making
payments on, which is probably outside of her pay range.
She should be on the bus if she wanted to.
I used to ride a bus sometimes. I rode a motorcycle that cost me
$400 and I made six figures because I had no money.
I was making six figures as like a 25 year old kid being a moron.
But I had. I was in debt and I didn't have
anything and so I was like the cheapest thing that I could do
to get me to work. Sometimes it was the bus,
sometimes I walked, sometimes I took that crappy old motorcycle
when it ran, and that's what I did.
And So what? Yeah, 40 hours a week.
I was working 60 or 80 at that time because I got paid
overtime, #1 and #2 because that's what you do when you're
young. But that's what we've kind of
we've we've failed a generation. I don't have any kids in that
age bracket, but if they think that they should be able to just
be handed it and 40 hours a week is too much for them to do it.
The goal is to work 80 or 100 when you're younger, and then
maybe you'll get to do 40 hours a week when you're older.
I work more than 40 right now and I work for me.
It's just me. Half the stuff I do is for free
because I love this country and I don't want it to fail.
So. Anyway, it's interesting that
these people are out there. But what's also interesting is
she's probably voting. Let me just put it.
This way. I'm sorry I got that off guard.
She she probably votes for a Joe Biden type right.
Open borders who drive down the way, the wages who are going to
put more pressure on living costs including when the federal
government gets involved in it. Ooh, that's complicated.
We're talking about second and third order effects.
Now the things that she think are good, like everybody is a
person and nobody is illegal, suddenly is going to result in
now my housing costs more than I can afford and the criminals are
going to be doing certain things.
That is means that when I make a phone call I'm not going to get
the police to help me out. In the meantime she's crying
about wearing a Walmart vest. Maybe get some skill sets,
honey. Or more importantly maybe we go
back to the way things used to be, which is that you find
somebody and the two of you actually reduce the number of
people in the workforce. This is what my wife and I
actually did. So I'm not preaching to a choir.
It doesn't exist. I know what this looks like.
My wife has a masters degree and a professional field that cost
us A5 figure amount of money. We paid for it.
That's fine. She doesn't work in that field
anymore. She handles our children, which
is the most important thing she could be doing.
She's home schooling. She's at her wits end at All in
all days. Like many of you who are
mothers, you know exactly what I'm talking about.
You work your asses off and the paycheck is not monetary.
But guess what? She's also not taking another
job out there, which means that whatever it is that she's doing
has driven incrementally up the wages because the demand is
higher. Now there's more demand because
one less person is out of that workforce.
That's how it used to be. In fact, Elizabeth Warren, fake
Pocahontas type, actually used to know that and in the early
2000s wrote a book called The Two Income Track.
I highly recommend that you guys go and grab the two income trap
and at least read the back of it.
Go read the synopsis of you don't need to read all of her
case studies on it. What you need to know is that
Elizabeth Warren used to know that women in the workplace
earning a primary wage. So basically taking one job for
one man who was running one family and putting a woman in,
and then the two of them basically combined their incomes
as double primaries gives you two points of fail.
That's like the V 22 Osprey of the of the job world.
Remember the Osprey? It has like the two rotors and
they scare the crap out of everybody and special operations
because it's got two points of fail.
If one of them fails, the thing dies.
It used to be that if you have one helicopter, one engine, you
maintain the engine. If it doesn't fail, then you're
good. Then you put two in.
One of those things could fail and then you're dead.
At least the way I understand it, and especially in the hover
mode, it just flips. Killed a bunch of marines that
way. Same idea when we have two
people in the household who are 100% dependent on each other to
to meet 50% or 40 and 60 or whatever that that that payoff
is When you take those two people in and they both are
contributing, they drive down the cost of labour, they drive
up the cost of housing. Elizabeth Warren knew all this
stuff. It's literally in her book.
It's totally worth your time. Of all things.
It's not great to go read Elizabeth Warren, but it's
interesting to know that she's lost her damn mind in the last
20 years and she used to actually understand what was
going on. Somebody said that I've done
everything. Yeah, my buddies always called
me Wolverine because they think I've lived a bunch of lives.
I think I've owned like 8 or 10 motorcycles.
I actually was one of the few FBI agents.
This is just a funny aside for you.
I was one of the few FBI agents who was officially assigned a
motorcycle as one of my official vehicles for work, and it was a
CBR1000 and I also had a Hayabusa at one point.
And then we also had a some kind of Kawasaki 1400.
Yeah, I've had motorcycles. I love motorcycles.
I also don't have one right now because I got little kids.
And that's just what you do. Sometimes you got to change.
Sometimes when you're young, you need to work your ass off.
And then when you're older, maybe you can change things
differently. Go to the library if you want to
go check out the two Income trap.
Totally worth your time. The upside?
I wasn't going to leave you guys without a palate cleanser.
So I do have you covered here, that woman who was very upset,
who's wearing the Walmart vest and that kind of thing.
It's not, it's not all for lost, OK?
She was mad at you. She yelled at you.
But the good news is that her dad took her under her wing, Her
dad is in transportation and is giving her a shot at a different
career. So we've got a little bit of
footage of that, and that actually is a little bit
heartwarming. So here we go.
This is what it looks like. Get off the way.
Get out the way. Get out the way.
Why are you looking at this cruise ship?
Sorry. For those of you who are
watching or listening on our audio channel, I will cut out a
big chunk of that. So.
But what you missed was this boat captain just decided to
snug up against the dock. Somebody tell me this.
I'm not. I'm not a mariner.
I don't have a captain's licence.
And what I'm really curious is, is when you run your 200 million
tonne cruise ship or whatever the hell that thing was into
somebody's little houseboat like that, where's the customary
place to leave the note letting them know what you've done?
I don't think there's a windshield necessarily.
So do you hand it to like the guy with the ropes?
Do you just kind of like spray painted on the side of the
whole? What is the what is the the what
is the right sort of method of notifying somebody that you just
ran your enormous cruise ship into somebody smaller boat and
crushed it? Anyway, what you missed was very
good time watching. I have no idea what the story
was behind that, other than it's just insane to watch a huge boat
just hitting a pier and people running around like videoing it
and a guy falls in the water at some point.
Super scary, super fun to watch. Just just a little bit of a
palate cleanser. Some weird things are happening
in this world and there a lot bigger deal than with some poor
girl working 40 hours a week. God forbid we're all going to
make it. We will.
It'll keep going on. Let me throw this up here.
The merch store. Speaking of keeping it going,
let's keep the the suspendable sweatshop burning.
Let's keep the oil in the lanterns and the children
scrubbing it along. Let's do Yeah.
So it is the dash. Just bendables.com.
It's the dash suspendable with an S on the end of it.com.
You guys can check out any of the number of things you can get
some Ranger panties. The ones I like actually have
the badge on it. I think Garrett changed up.
He made one with black. It's it's black shorts with a
black badge. I'm a big fan of that one, but
you can check out the patches. You can check out the lapel
pins. I will tell you this, if you
wear one of those lapel pins, #1 the eagle is down.
You wear it. It should look upside down to
people who don't know what's going on.
It's an agency in distress. It's it's symbolising what's
going on in law enforcement right now.
But more importantly, if you wear one of those things, people
will ask you about it. Everywhere you go.
I constantly have people eyeballing it.
And then I was like, hey, you want to give me one of those
pins? No.
I want you to go buy one from my friend Garrett.
You can go buy three of them for 30 bucks.
It's a great deal. He'll shipping to you.
I think the shipping is free. And you can use promo code Kyle,
Kyle. That'll save you 10%.
Go to thedashexpendables.com and check that out.
And then lastly, let's do our five star review, which we
cannot do without. Here's a good one.
It says Captain Crusher from December 20th.
Captain Crusher is a good name with a K, says the show 5 stars.
Thought I'd send you another five star review because well, I
can so there. And a :).
Yeah, you know what folks? If you've written as a five star
review before and you want to write another one, it doesn't
matter if you just loved an episode or you're just feeling
froggy. Send US1.
Make it funny if you can. I have to read them out loud.
I don't have to, but I choose to.
So send me a good five star review if you're watching us on.
If you're listening to us on Apple to do the same thing on
Spotify, iHeartRadio, you tell me wherever you're at.
And you can also leave comments in all of our videos.
I read a bunch of them. Don't read all of them, but I
try to get through most of them. That's part of what my day
involves and I appreciate them. Some of them are totally wacky.
So you guys have some real wild ideas and some of you are very
funny and some of you are just plain angry.
And I get it. We're all angry at this point in
time. Let's try to go out there and
understand that Gen Z is having a real tough time.
Maybe we need to quietly educate them and help them out.
Let's TikTok more pushing carts back in.
I'm sick of trying to run over your carts, Genz girl.
Anyway, folks, we will see you again tomorrow for the Kyle
Serafin Show at 0930. Make sure you give us a like on
this video as you leave and we will see you again tomorrow.
God bless you. See you.
Soon. Thanks for listening to the Kyle
