Take a look behind the curtain with the 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 Saraf. Hello my friends.
Welcome to the Kyle Serafin Show.
Today is Tuesday. It's November the 28th.
We are coming to the end of this month and moving into the
Christmas season. It's about to be Advent.
This this weekend is going to be the first Sunday of Advent.
For those of you who are about to start opening your calendars
up and feeding your kids chocolate once a day.
Do you guys do that too with the Advent calendar?
Big fan. You guys are all talking about
it being cold in the chat. Except the people who live in
Florida who said that it's about 60° in Florida.
You got to love it though. Central Florida winters are
brutal and require you to get a suspendable hoodie, most likely.
Folks, we've got an interesting show for you today.
We're going to do a recap at the end of the show today of
yesterday's show. Lest you didn't take away that
90 minutes, we're going to condense it into a few minutes.
But what? I want to talk about a little
bit of censorship and I want to talk about the government.
It's there to help you, isn't it?
Isn't it kind of funny how leftists don't actually
understand and they have no sense of irony?
About the things they might say, and they don't apologise for it
after the fact either. They just say I'm going to say
ridiculous words that come out of my mouth.
Many of you guys have seen the thumbnail.
Throw the thumbnail up there real quick ride.
It's pretty good. Mostly because this education
secretary, a guy named Miguel Cardona, look at that fat face.
That guy is well fed. Would be the nice way of saying
it. He got out and said something
kind of ridiculous. But I think it actually tells us
a lot more about what this administration thinks.
They have no problem with Co opting truth into their lies and
they have no problem with being absolutely ridiculous and they
have no shame. So we're going to do some of
that fun stuff. Before we do it, let's start off
with a shameless plug for our friends at Catholic Vote.
I'm just throwing a fast one at you right here.
Catholic Vote and our friends at catholicvote.org.
You can go to their website, which is in fact
catholicvote.org. You can sign up for The Loop,
which is an email service that we get every single day here.
They are America's top advocacy group for faith, family and
freedom. They are leading this fight.
And what are they doing? They're suing the FBI.
They are giving you information. They are informing you, which is
the part one. They are arming you with
information, including today's. And they are also.
Doing law fair in the reverse. They are working against the
federal government, trying to expose some things, make things
transparent. Today's loop is a little heavy
on Catholic News, I found and some really strange stuff out of
Wisconsin where our friend Garrett Boyle lives.
They have something about a satanic Christmas tree.
Is that even a thing? Some of the news that you
probably won't see anywhere else.
That's pretty outrageous stuff. A lot going on in the world,
whether it be in the sphere of religion or culture and so on.
But look at that. There's some of their original
reporting over there talking about a satanic Christmas tree
with a coiled snake. At the base.
I guess they don't really understand that what what
Christmas is about. If you guys want to vote, donate
and you want to support, today is what they call Giving
Tuesday. You guys can support Catholic
vote by going to the give button on the top right hand side of
their web page, making a one time or a monthly donation if
you like. We do appreciate it.
Like I said, they keep the lights on here at the Serafin
household. They are our single biggest
sponsor and they are outstanding people as well.
Good people with a good sense of humour.
You can't cancel them because they are not cancellable, they
don't care and they have some really based based ideas about
the world. They sort of believe, you know
things like men or women. Men are men and women.
Women and kids should be left alone.
We're going to talk about that at the end of the show today,
too. Let's start right off with a
clip from what led off today's title of the episode.
I just think it's fun. We're going to play a game
that's called Who Wore It Better?
But it's going to be a quote. So we're not going to do
dresses. It's not going to be on the the
red carpet. This is Who Wore It Better.
Let's play video clip #1. The education Secretary, Miguel
Cardona, from the Biden administration.
You know, we're going to set up follow up calls with every
governor we met with to make sure we're available, as I think
it was, President Reagan said. We're from the government.
We're here to help. There's.
There are resources there, There's technical assistance
there, and there's a playbook that could support the work
you're doing. Count on us as a partner in
this. Our students are waiting.
Thank you. First of all, he doesn't have
any students. He's part of the education
department from the federal government.
So they don't have any students. They don't run schools.
They give money to schools, and they influence policy in ways
that shouldn't even exist. It is an agency that is looking
for a mission and doesn't need to be there.
We could do without. It turns out the federal
government doesn't really run schools.
State governments sort of do, but local governments really do.
So why are we going to the federal government the furthest
away and having this clown look at his face when he says this
quote, which he he destroys. We're going to play the real one
in a second. The Who wore a better part.
But look at his face. He actually is looking for like
applause. Or laugh.
He's got a smile like I just nailed it.
Watch him say this one more time.
We're gonna play that clip #1 again if you would, Ryan.
Keep your eye on his facial expression if you didn't see it
for previously. You know, we're going to set up
follow up calls with every governor we met with to make
sure we're available as I think it was, President Reagan said.
We're from the government. We're here to help.
There there's. There are resources there,
There's technical assistance there, and there's a playbook
that could support the work you're doing.
Count on us as a partner in this.
Our students are waiting. Thank you.
Yeah, Michelle, 68 Delta just said it.
Clap, please. Was exactly what he had.
That was his face. Is anyone going to clap?
I just said it. I said the line.
Are you guys into it? You're not into it.
Why? Because Reagan said it better.
Here's video #2. Give it a shot.
Let's see what he said. I think you all know that I've
always felt the nine most terrifying words in the English
language are I'm from the government and I'm here to help.
I'm from the government and I'm here to help, are the 9 most
terrifying words. They are not advice for
government bureaucrats to go out there and advertise their
capabilities, Ultra MTA said. That is our cross eyed bear.
Yep, that is the cross-eyed Bear right there, my friends.
Miguel Cardona, Poor guy. You want to pull up the article?
Fox News did a little piece on it.
We'll talk about it. What was going on?
Like, why was he giving this to this statement?
Why was he even involved in it? And it's pretty straightforward.
He was at the Western Governors Association winter meeting,
which was held in the very fancy Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
So here he is on the West. Side of the country in the Rocky
Mountains, and he's in Jackson Hole, which is a home for
millionaires now. They turned it into this
absolutely lush paradise. But generally speaking, Wyoming
is kind. Of.
Old school America. It's a lot like Montana.
It's cold. There are people who deal with
real things like cattle and agriculture, and here he is
saying that he believed that Ronald Reagan's stance was the
government was here to help. I don't know.
Like that guy's. Older than me.
So he should have no excuse for thinking that Ronald Reagan
somehow thought government was the solution.
I don't know where you would come up with that.
I don't know where you would you would look at the entire history
of Ronald Reagan and decide that the government was any solution.
He basically argued the opposite of it.
And some of you may have even seen there's a T-shirt that is
made with that phrase. It's got a guy wearing like.
Sort of a balaclava. He's wearing like a ski mask,
and he's standing up on top of a rooftop pointing a rifle down at
you, doing like this Overwatch position.
And it says, you know, I'm from the government, I'm here to.
Help. The idea is that the government
is the worst solution to all problems, except when it's the
only solution to the problem. And there are times when we
can't have. Someone else do it.
But we don't do it with any love or joy.
In fact, if you go back to the founding of this country with
the federalist and the anti federalist debate, the anti
Federalists were arguing for a weak federal government weaker
than it is. The Federalists were arguing for
one that was strong enough to be able to exist and not fall apart
on its own weakness, but was not strong enough to invade and
destroy your civil liberties. And the Bill of Rights that we
got was in fact, sort of the compromise between those who
wanted a strong enough federal government that could actually
continue to stand on its own merits.
Remember that just came out of a failed Articles of Confederacy,
which was essentially they were unable to sustain anything.
They had no real authorities. It was a government that was in
name only. There's that great pin by the
patch. I almost bought that for a hat a
long time ago. But I feel like people wouldn't
get it if you're running by them on a trail.
Like, people aren't going to look over like, oh, that guy
thinks the government's good or that guy dislikes the
government. He's got the suppressor on the
rifle. The whole thing is great.
There's another one with the guy who I think he's holding like.
He's holding a an M16 with like a 203 grenade launcher on the
bottom of the two also looks very threatening, but the long
and short of it is. You're not supposed to have a
federal government that's strong enough to come in and give you
certain things, like the Education Department, which
gives all these funds. Those funds come from the
states, They come from you, the people, which is the reason why
our label taxation is theft. I want you to meditate on this
for a second. If you were to go up to your
neighbour and at gunpoint, tell them to give you whatever money
they have or a percentage of their money, give me 32% of your
money. Give me 24% of your money.
Give me 10,000 and $26, but also 24% of the money that you have.
That's over that and that's what our tax structures look like.
That would be. That would be felony theft,
right? That would be grand larceny
anywhere you go. If the government does it, then
it's called taxation. You can't tell me that there's
not a Direct Line between what that is, taxation and theft.
And many of us think that way. And here's the other thing, It's
not like we're getting a great deal.
Somebody just said there was a great meme I saw the other day
that showed a guy stroking out a check for the for the IRS and he
was like, well, I just paid my taxes.
So I expect those roads to be done by the end of the week.
You know, the government gets money every single year.
They get every single month from you in many places.
They're going to pay it out. It comes out of each one of your
your paychecks for those of you who are W2 employees.
And as you stroke out that check, which is the government
getting a piece of your income, it's not like we're seeing a
regular progress. Now, do we have better roads
than maybe some places do? Sure.
But is it the attention? No, because we're paying for fat
guys like that to eat all their fill and fly around and give
meetings where they don't understand American history.
And talking to Western governors, I mean, if you figure
who the governors are in the West, what a weird mishmash of
people, you'd have a Gavin Newsom, you'd have the governor
of Oregon and Washington. Then you'd have Idaho and
Montana and Wyoming and Utah. Colorado, What a strange group
of people to put together. I don't know what they have
anything in common other than that they are geographically in
the same area and all the people that live in the rural areas and
all of those states don't like any of those people that are in
that room. That's probably the only thing
they have in common. Quite strange.
It comes down to the fact that if the government is going to be
the organisation that wants to tell you what's good, which is
what the the leftist, the Democrats believe, what this
Biden administration believes, then they're also going to kind
of control you in many ways. We've seen the censorship being
slowly peeled back. There was a veil over it.
We didn't know what was happening.
We had a sense of it. But there's something different.
That's why yesterday's show was, I think, very important.
When you have a sense that something is happening, it's one
thing when you actually have the black and white policies, the
words of those people coming down on top of you, then it's a
very different animal. And so I want to bring up this
this topic that came, this is right out of CNN's platform
today. And you know, CNN, they're no
friend of what we're talking about.
But CNN is very concerned with the fact that Twitter still
exists and it exists in a pretty strong way.
The article here, this is by Oliver Darcy, who is a big
favourite of mine. He wrote this on Monday.
It says major brands. They're not only pausing ads on
Elon Musk's ex, that's Twitter. They're stepping away from the
platform altogether. Now, he's not saying this like
as a cautionary thing, like don't cancel people for speech.
This is celebratory. This is absolutely a celebratory
statement. And even the picture of Elon
Musk there wearing a suit, they're they're trying to not
make him look great. They're saying that the exodus
from X is bleeding beyond major advertisers.
It's not just that the people have stopped advertising and
they have, they had an entire concerted effort that was done
by Media Matters and the Anti Defamation League, which is this
like left wing, formerly pro Jewish, but no longer.
Now it's just a left wing activist group that is going out
trying to bleed Twitter dry. Why?
Because where the conversation is is where they want to
control, and they can't control. Elon Musk in a meaningful way
says here quote in recent days a number of prominent media brands
have not only paused their paid marketing campaigns on the
embattled Elon Musk owned social media platform, even the way
they phrased it, the embattled social media platform.
Do any of you use Twitter in the chat?
Let me know you guys use Twitter.
I I use it all the time. I don't know that it's
embattled. Every time I use it works fine.
So does that make it embattled? It's a battleground for sure.
The crazies are on there, but I don't know that it's an
embattled social media platform And they say, but some of these
these major media brands. Have ceased posting on their
altogether, they've gone silent and the once essential site
thought to be the world's digital town square, the
flagship accounts belonging to Disney, Paramount, Lionsgate,
Sony Pictures, Universal and Warner Brothers.
Have not posted on the platform in roughly 10 days.
So we're not getting the tweets from Disney, Paramount,
Lionsgate, Sony, Universal and Warner Brothers.
What does that tell us? That tells us that we're not
catching whatever propaganda these media companies are
pushing out. And we don't have as much
things, as many things rather to make fun of, because almost
everything that Disney has put out, everything that Paramount
puts out, Universal, Warner Brothers, and so on, these are
leftist woke morons that have no touch with what's going on,
let's say, with the people in Wyoming.
They don't know. They're not connected to these
human beings. So we're not getting their
content on Twitter. I don't go to Twitter to ever
follow what companies have to say unless I'm going to roast
them. And I imagine many of you are
the same way. Who do you want to hear from?
People that know things, people that say things that are dumb,
that are on the other side, that are important for us to know
that they're going on. You need to be aware of what the
enemy's position are. I use the enemy in air quotes
lest anyone thinks we're trying to incite violence here.
But not only are we trying to figure out what we think and and
hash out those talking points, those arguments, those those
ways of thinking that are that are shared, but we also want to
find out what the other side. Things because they're going to
be shaping their policies and their policies are censorship
and shutdown. And their claim is, is that Elon
Musk is endorsing anti Semitic conspiracy theories because he's
and he's not apologising for it. God forbid he's not apologising
for it because one, he didn't say them and two, they're
they're all in on. They're confused these media
organisations because many of them are run by Jewish people.
They're owned by Jewish people. Hollywood was set up by Jews
back when it was. That's not a conspiracy.
That's just the nature of the people that are there.
That has nothing to do with whether they're religiously
Jewish. Many of them are not, but they
are ethnically Jewish and they have that heritage.
So you have this weird moment right now where the Palestine,
you know, Gaza, Hamas situation versus Israel and you know, sort
of it's the Jewish state, they're they're sort of in
conflict and so nobody knows where and of course they have
problems. Here's the thing that I found
most interesting about this, because Elon Musk has more money
than any person has ever had. As far as we can tell, he's damn
near it. And one of the things that he
said was that he is willing to exercise power.
I had a tweet about this, but first we're gonna do a quick
video on it. Ryan, the video is #3.
Let's run video #3. I think this is the way that he
is treating this. And I don't think Elon Musk is
even a little bit worried about these sort of things.
Because for him, as he said earlier on, owning Twitter
wasn't about the money. They're going to make it
profitable, but it wasn't about the money.
Let's roll video clip #3. What?
You guys get a little taste of what he says here.
This is an older. Interview I don't want it at all
but I'm what I'm trying even came up though in the annual
meeting. I mean, you know, do your tweets
hurt the company? Are there Tesla owners just say
I don't agree with his political position because and I know it
because he shares so much of it or their advertisers on Twitter
that Linda Yaccarino. Come and say you gotta stop,
man, Or you know, I can't get these ads because of some of the
things you tweet. Like the pause.
You know, I'm reminded of. But the scene in The Princess
Bride? Great movie.
Great. Where he confronts the person
who killed his father. It says.
Ioffer me money. Offer me power.
I don't care. So you just don't care.
You want to share what you have to say.
I'll say what I want to say and if, if, if, if the consequence
of that is losing money, so be it.
OK. I don't know why I love that,
but the energy that is in that room is so tense.
There is a there's a very, very hard line between what Elon Musk
is doing. And what everybody else that's
in the media that has this frenzy, I want you to consider
this. And we may even play this quote
twice. And I want you to look at
something. I always play them first.
Sometimes I have thoughts that I want to kind of share often.
Consider this. Everybody talks about the pause.
Now Elon does this all the time. If you ask him a question, he
doesn't respond the way that I often do, which is like this.
I'm trying to fill that space because my mind is already gone
there. But he's much more deliberate
than that. He also probably has some sort
of, you know, some sort of social condition, whether he's
on the Asperger spectrum or whether he's autistic of some
kind. He's highly functional.
He's trained himself to overcome a lot of these things.
But he takes that pause. And that's on live TV.
That's on a live broadcast. And he feels no.
He feels no requirement to fill that space.
But the other guy, the anchor, the interviewer, the, you know,
fake journalist that's sitting there, absolutely feels a
powerful. A powerful draw to fill it up,
and I'm gonna tell you how you know.
Because when he sits there and he waits and he goes.
And he's looking around. And he's thinking.
And then he says I'm reminded of a quote from The Princess Bride.
Another long pause. It's a great movie and the guy
jumps in because he's just aching to get some more audio
across that empty airwave, he says.
Yeah, it's great movie. He's quick to agree with him.
Because he knows that he's just said something stupid, and Elon
Musk is about to just, you know, excoriate him with it.
And he says, you can't make me do anything.
Now let's consider the power of what goes on there.
The man is wearing a suit. The interviewer, Elon Musk, is
in a T shirt. That's power.
He showed up. To a national interview on live
television, wearing AT shirt and jeans.
That's what he wants. And you can't make him wear
something else. He leaves open air that people
pay thousands of dollars per second to get access to.
And he can do it because it's his.
Because he doesn't. Care, because that's power.
He says that he's not going to be concerned about what people
who buy Teslas think about his politics.
Because he has power. Because you can buy the car or
not. You know who has that power?
Apple has that power over me. I despise a lot of the things
that Apple does, but they make the best product for what I do.
I have an Apple laptop. I'm not real thrilled about it,
but I have really no choice. They make this mouse, which has
dramatically changed our show. Just ask right?
This is the best mouse for what I do.
It's a great. Piece of technology.
Who does this on Amazon? You know, Nike tried to pull
their products off Amazon in 2020 or 2019, and then obviously
Under Armour, Lululemon, all their competition is selling on
Amazon. Amazon makes it so much more
profitable for your competition that if you're not selling on
their platform, your business is going to fail.
It's your problems on this. That's exactly right.
And when we're talking about power like that?
And I'm reminded, I sat in a I sat in a all hands on deck
meeting. If you guys follow my Twitter,
you already read this, but I'll give you kind of the fleshed out
version. I sat in an all deck, all hands
on deck meeting for the small business sales people.
For Dell computers. Dell is a national brand,
obviously, and Michael Dell at the time was one of the biggest
names in computers. This is going back 2005,
probably 2005, maybe 2006. And we get called into this huge
conference room. He comes in there and they give
you an opportunity to ask some questions.
I asked him kind of a tough question.
He shrugged it off, much to his chagrin.
I think I asked him what, what Apple's job was.
Sorry, what? What Dell's job was as a major
purveyor of the PC platform in defending the PC.
This was right during the time. If you guys want to get your
heads squared away for the time frame, this is when they were
running those things with the kid from dodgeball saying, you
know, I'm a Mac. And then they had kind of the
fat looking guy who who looked kind of like a fat Bill Gates.
And he said I'm a PC. And they would go back and forth
about what the value of the products.
Were. And so I said, You know what?
What is Dell's job in defending the PC platform in in light of
these Apple, you know, advertisements that are kind of
directly attacking this platform?
And he basically said they got that kind of effeminate kid from
dodgeball. So I don't really Care now from
that time. At that time, PC's held 95% of
the computer market for consumers and for most
businesses as well. And at this point I think it's
closer to like a third that Apple has been able to get.
So they they grab 25% market share from those from that
initial sort of jump off point part of it because have a great
product. But Michael Dell has kind of
dismissed that that's neither here nor there.
He dismissed whether or not that was going to be relevant.
So that was not powerful. I think that was actually.
Foolish, but what did happen was someone said, How come you never
wear a tie? And if you've ever seen Michael
Dell, a billionaire, he goes out and talks.
Still, he's not around all the time.
And he always wears like a polo shirt he doesn't wear.
If he even if he wears a Sport coat, he doesn't wear a tie.
And someone said, how come? How come he never wear a tie
like you're the CEO, you're the founder of this big company or
with all this money, why don't you wear a tie?
It's the same reason that Elon Musk doesn't, by the way.
And he said, I've never understood the purpose of a tie.
I don't know what it's for. I don't like ties.
I don't want to use it as a napkin to like, you know, block
my face when I'm eating. I don't know why I would hang a
piece of cloth around my neck. What does that signify other
than I'm dressing up and I'm putting on this useless thing?
It's an ornament and I don't want it.
I'm paraphrasing some of the things he said.
Essentially, that was his point and he.
Said I don't have to wear a tie. I used to have to wear a tie to
get deals and things like that, and now I don't.
Because he has power, he said. People wear ties to come see me.
And that's a power. And so there's something about
money, but it's also about not caring.
When you realise that you have a certain amount of power that you
don't have to cave to anybody else, then that's a power.
And many of you are realising that.
You're realising that whether or not you're censored is not going
to change your life. Whether or not you lose a social
media account, it's not going to change your life.
It might take some of your your resources away.
It might be like Ryan Ryan lost a big social media account on on
YouTube and it took away a significant amount of money, but
it didn't end his life. It's just you either say what
you believe is true and you own it and you move forward with it
or. You accept that they have power
over you, and that's the real scary thing, is that they are
trying to do that. That's what CNN is talking
about. That's what they're upset about.
That's what this whole article was, is they are trying to
extend power over Elon Musk. Because Elon Musk is sort of
saying I have the power to do whatever I want, I'm going to do
whatever I want. And by the way, you can pretty
much do anything you want there too.
Is there some censorship on Twitter?
Maybe? Are there some algorithms that
still need to be sorted out? I'm sure there are.
And some of us figure that out. But what I also find is that
sometimes certain things get more traction simply because
they're better. They're better connecting to the
people that you're sending it to.
So sometimes we'd like to blame an algorithm, and we'd like to
blame what's going on behind the scenes, like we're getting
cheated out of some sort of visibility or whatever else for
our message. But how often times is it that,
how often is it that it's just on us, that it's in the
marketplace of ideas? And given a free marketplace of
ideas, some things are going to rise to the top and some will
not. There's a reason why Tucker
Carlson is the best and why nobody cares what Oliver Darcy
thinks, just statistically. They're they're scared.
They're weak. They don't have power.
And the more power, seeing how Fox News cancelled people like
Tucker and my buddy Dan Bongino pulled them off, What did it do?
It gave Dan one of the biggest live streams in the world
everyday. And it gave him probably more
financial independence. And it probably gave him the
ability to say anything he wants.
He has some unfiltered shows that are really unfiltered now.
Now he's taking away the Fox part of it.
And I told him at the time, I don't know if you guys, I don't
know if I ever said this to anybody, but I sent him a
message when he got removed from Fox.
And I said, this is going to end up being the best thing for you.
You didn't know it, but they were holding you back.
I said something to that effect to him.
And I know that probably didn't feel very good at the moment,
but a couple days later, he was vindicated.
Because God, oftentimes in this moment right now, we're seeing
things even in a speed of like social media and the media
platform, it's happening so fast, people are actually
getting validated and vindicated in real time.
And Dan was this. And and and so is Tucker.
So much there. So much about it is about this
power. Speaking about power, you might
run out of power. You may not have electrical
power in the near future. If the grid goes down, if these
idiots that are running our country decide to crash it,
there's some things you may want to do.
You may want to check out four patriots.com/kyle.
Get yourself prepped. What kind of preparation should
you do? Food, electrical, water.
Those are your big things. Electrical is more about
comfort, but sometimes it could be a survival situation.
Your food is going to be something you're going to need
within a couple of days. You can go a couple days without
it. But I'll tell you what, you're
not going to be cool to be around.
You're going to be like Steve Friend on day three with only
two almonds. Kind of a grump.
You're gonna wanna make sure you get yourself some food stashed
away, right? Knows what I'm talking about.
Get yourself some, get yourself something prepped in case
something bad happens, in case we run out of power in this
country, in case the morons that are trying to crash our car end
up doingsoso4patriots.com/kyle. That'll get you the deals that
we have set up here with four patriots as a company.
And then if you want to check into some of their other things,
they've got all kinds of nifty gadgets and tools.
Look, a lot of these things are going to be comfort and they are
going to be creature comfort type orientations.
They are not going to be truly survival oriented.
You need calories. You need.
Warmth. You can get the you can actually
be cold and still eat, and you'll actually survive through
most things. And you need water, so they've
got water purification as well. Check in all those things.
We just bought a water purifier sitting on my counter right now.
Being able to cook your food is great, but you can eat them
cold. Calories can come in.
Even those bars will get you going for days.
So make a make a plan. Don't plan to fail.
You know, get yourself prepared for whatever may come your way,
which could be anything. It turns out we're in a pretty
wild time. Things are volatile and they are
versatile, and they are happening very quickly.
It's fourpatriots.com/kylecheck those folks out.
Let's let's talk about the censorship even a little further
because our government, which is Steve taking your money, what
are they paying for with that money?
Let's bring up this article. This goes back to March and this
is going to be a topic #3. This is a news article.
Now this was written by a woman named Margot Cleveland who has a
personal relationship with Steve.
Friend was one of his instructors in in school and
it's an interesting piece because this came right on the
heels. Of Schellenberg.
Shellenberger rather and and Matt Taibbi testifying in front
of Congress about censorship and one of the items or one of the
one of the institutions that they were dealing with was this
group called news Guard. And if you've never heard of
News Guard I'm going to give you kind of a primer on it.
It's it's essentially A supposedly nonprofit group.
It's supposedly apolitical that's trying to do something.
It's obviously left wing and it's government funded.
And how do we know that? Because of some of the work that
Margot Cleveland has been sort of keeping under wraps.
I'm gonna read directly from the article here.
It says the media rantings ratings giant news guard denied
that it was, quote unquote, government funded after being
called out as part of the vast. Censorship complex during
Congressional hearings last week.
Again, Taibi and Shellenberger. But government records and the
company's own public announcement celebrating a
nearly $750,000 federal grant suggests otherwise.
Hmm. It's almost like they're lying
to you, it says, quote. On Thursday, independent
journalists Matt Taibbi, Michael Shellenberger appeared in front
of the House Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal
Government to testify that they had discovered, during a review
of internal Twitter communications, they were
talking about the so-called Twitter files.
And halfway through this thread in the censorship industrial
complex, which I would call the Information Industrial complex,
I think it's bigger than censorship because they actually
want to control information. Not just censor some, they
actually want to feed you others, right?
That's all part of it. It says this is Taibi talking
here, he said. Some NGOs like the GSEC funded
Global Disinformation Index or the DoD funded news Guard not
only see content moderation, but apply subjective risk or
reliability scores to these media outlets, which can result
in a reduction in revenue. So they're costing people money
by trying to pick winners and losers in this information game.
Now of course News Guard pushed back and said no, they're not
government funded, They tried to go, you know, try and shut this
thing down. Matt Gates great follow up
question, who is News Guard And he's asking, trying to trying to
figure out what this group is that's being referenced because
most Americans don't know. And Shellenberger said both the
the Global Disinformation Index and News Guard are U.S.
government funded entities who are working to drive advertising
revenue away from disfavored publications and towards the
ones they favour. It's totally inappropriate.
The government is explicitly forbidden from being involved in
First. Amendment protected activities.
I'm going to pull up the 1st Amendment right now.
I'm thinking about it as we speak, and I'm going to read to
you the actual words again. We always should just go right
to the text. Why would we not?
We should talk about what the word say and when.
It says that Congress shall make no law respecting an
establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise
thereof, abridging the freedom of speech or of the press, of
the right of the people to peacefully assemble.
So there should be nothing that abridges free speech if the
government is actually paying for news guard.
When the government is paying for news guard to censor people,
I would argue to you that that is a violation of abridging the
freedom of speech. It makes perfect sense if a
private company wants to do it, if Elon Musk wants to do it on
his platform, we sort of as as members of a conservative and
libertarian leaning sort of faction, people who want to see
the constitution carried out, we would say, OK, fair play, he
bought it, he can do what he wants with it, he can charge you
8 bucks if you want validation and so on and so forth.
But can the government really weigh in on it?
And the answer is of course they did.
And they didn't contest the $750,000 award, which is a lot
of money in this it probably pays a number of people
salaries. Now there's a second article
followed up that just came out this week.
Because this is where it gets really spicy for me.
What's really strange to me is. News Guard is selling this
government funded censorship tool to private companies.
What in the actual hell does that mean?
Again, Margot Cleveland reporting on this.
It says the money that they got from the defence department
helped test technologies. And then it seems like they're
turning around and trying to sell this to other entities.
So the for profit censorship giant, I guess I was thinking
that they were nonprofit, that that was my original belief.
That's why they getting government grants.
But they're not. They're actually a for profit
enterprise. They're selling what they call
misinformation, fingerprints technology to private companies
in order to silence American speech.
Once again, this is government theft in taxation, going
directly into a private entity that makes money out of it and
choosing winners and losers in the free speech arena in
violation of the 1st Amendment. That's what this should look
like. The government should, should
have no say in it. They're supposed to remain
agnostic. I think I actually heard Tucker
Carlson say that when he interviewed me about the radical
traditionalist Catholic documents.
The government has to remain agnostic about things like
religion, about things like which political.
Ideas are best. The government has to stay out
of it as an entity, and yet they're weighing in on it in
this case. So News Guard is making
headlines for trying to take down Elon Musk X, as we just
mentioned. The bigger story is that the
federal government is actually funding this censorship
industrial complex, the information industrial complex,
and they launched a Thanksgiving Day or Thanksgiving week attack
on the social media company formerly known as Twitter.
I don't know how else to call it like X is just such a weird
thing to call it claiming that there were 200 ads from
prominent advertisers that appeared on fees spreading lies
about the Israel Hamas war. Once again, that was covered
down. So not only are we hearing about
it from CNN, but this news guard is the one that's actually
pushing it. And then CNN picks up the call.
Elon Musk return fire, calling them a propaganda shop, Which
they are. And saying that, it quote uses
reports to pressure companies to buy their fact checking services
and that's what it's always about.
But when the federal government. And the federal government is
involved in funding the tools. Through DoD grants.
That seems like a real problem now. the US government has
always been involved in propaganda work.
Honestly, if you think about this, it goes back as far as we
can imagine in in modern war there is a concept called 5th
Generation Warfare 5 GW. And when you have that, it means
that you are trying to sway people's ideas and you do throw.
So by moving local media and you know there was a whole thing
called Voice of America that some of you may know it's full
of spies and weirdos and I actually investigated people at
Voice of America in Washington DC But there's there's a
propaganda arm as long as it's facing outside of the United
States. We don't actually guarantee
those people the American protections of the Constitution.
We don't. We don't guarantee the world's
constitutional protections. But you are supposed to see it
for Americans. You're not supposed to have
Americans getting their own tax dollars turned against them to
censor their own opinions. And that should be a real
problem for many of us. I don't know if we can just stop
paying taxes for awhile. I haven't paid taxes this year
yet. I don't have to pay them at the
end of the year. It'll be kind of fun for me to
see how that works out. I'm sure I'm going to cut a
really ugly check that's going to make me very uncomfortable.
Because I don't think that I've gotten a whole lot of the
federal government and I worked. For the federal government, I
know for a fact that if you shut down almost all of it, none of
us would experience anything different.
I'm totally happy to pay my state taxes, it turns out.
For now. For now, we'll work that one
down too. But the federal government is
obviously bloated. And where does so much of this
money go? It goes to the federal
government inefficiently, into some bureaucratic process.
Then it gets put back into the state governments to be used by
another inefficient bureaucracy, which hands down to our local
governments, which is where it should be in the first place, in
that something we find the least efficient way to do it.
That is why Ronald Reagan said those nine most terrifying words
is that I'm from the government and we're here to help.
It's not someone who's gonna help you.
They're here to help themselves to your money.
That's what it turns out to be. Let's do something.
Talk about someone who's looking to help us.
If you guys got one of these Patriot cooler deals, the
discount the 20% off during Cyber Monday, give me a thumbs
up in the chat. I'd like to see if anybody went
and took advantage of that 20% off.
Let's say thanks to our friends Patriot coolers.com.
Patriot Coolers with an S on theend.com.
There they are. There are OG sponsor and they
are a company that I've been using since 2017 when I was
working on surveillance, when I was just a government employee
taking your tax dollars and turning it into eyeballs on bad
guys. And I was using a number of
other things, but most specifically I carried a tumbler
around to like 20 different states as I was running around
on duty. As a federal agent, check out
their their hard sided stuff. These are my favourite.
I've got one of these sitting in my minivan at all times.
I have the 50 quart rotomolded in tan because they didn't have
grey. It's actually a pretty pretty
close fit. If you look at the difference
between the colours it's not very high.
It actually fits very nicely in the back of my grey interior
minivan. Nobody can see it.
Could you use it to lock up a small rifle?
You could. Is it lockable?
It is, yeah. You could tether that thing back
down, tie it to a hard point. Or you could be one of these
people that wants to have a aquamarine, a Tiffany, blue
Robins egg, whatever you want to call that.
Fantastic products, Fantastic people.
Says Patriot. Right on the front of them.
We've got one sitting on the desk right now working through
the 16 ounce of coffee round #2. I'm trying to keep it under
control here and do less, less coffee.
I don't know why people Babs in the chat just said she.
She laughs that I have a minivan.
I used to have a minivan. I asked for a minivan when I
worked for the government. I actually said, what is a
vehicle that nobody will fight me for?
Give me a Dodge Caravan with 100,000 miles on it.
And so I got one. That's what I got.
And I called it the the Minivan of Justice.
The V OJ, The van of Justice. It's fantastic.
It is the most low visibility vehicle you've ever seen.
And if you ever want to hear a story from a cop, if we could
ever find this guy, he was a Virginia State trooper.
He got behind me as I was driving into the 2020 riots that
were going on in the middle of the summer of 2020.
We were going in in front of the White House, I think it was in
June and I'm driving like 85 miles an hour on I-95 heading
northbound on I-395 or whatever it was called, going into the
District, going to work with no plates on my minivan.
I had no idea that I pulled the the plates off already.
I'd forgotten. I did it the night before and I
get the state trooper behind me and he lights me up with his,
with his cherries and berries, whatever.
He's trying to pull me over and I just refused to pull over.
I just wasn't gonna pull over because I was busy.
And I'm wearing like tactical armour and stuff like that.
So I keep driving. This guy gets up in front of me,
and then he gets behind me and he's like got his lights and I'm
not pulling over. And he looks over at me and I
look over at him. I give him like, whatever, bro,
I'm still driving here. And it probably confused him to
no end because I turned on my lights in my minivan too.
And that is the weirdest thing. If you've ever been pulled over
by a minivan, it was probably a federal surveillance team like
my guys and I used to run. Very very strange.
For people to see that someone just said a a caravan went to 85
miles an hour, whatever 007 you are incorrect.
The Dodge Caravan can run 85 miles an hour no problem, and it
goes zero to 60 in an impressive rate when you have it set up to
be able to catch. Up with bad guys I used to do
all the time, I would do wild things in many bands that would
blow your mind because nobody knows they're coming.
The minivan. It's the ultimate stealth
vehicle. Just saying, folks, if you're
just watching this right now, make sure you hit the like
button on Rumble. If you're watching us somewhere
else, you should come join us on Rumble because we've already
stopped streaming to YouTube because they suck.
We hate YouTube. We're not doing it anymore.
I don't want anything. I don't want anything to do with
YouTube. I don't like the fact that they
demonetize every single video. By the way, when we showed that
alligator getting bit the other day, folks, we had that video of
the alligator. It was Steve Friend was trying
to talk to the alligator while he was on a jog, but he was
hypoxic. And then the alligator bit him.
And there was that song that I told you.
I really. Liked he was like.
Then whatever that was got us demonetized on YouTube.
They said you can't monetize the video because you have a nine
second clip of some song that no ones ever heard of that we were
promoting and said was great. That's why I don't like YouTube.
That's why we're not gonna be doing anymore.
So that's why we're off the YouTube.
I'm sorry that that is the case, but it is not happening again.
We're not going to do that. You got How did that song go
again? Yeah, I don't know the words.
Yeah, I just know that. I just know the bass drop there.
I was like. I think it was called I'd rather
be with you. I got an email about it from
YouTube saying what it was and they were like, hey, you don't
have any money because we paid $0.09.
We don't get paid by YouTube anyway.
We weren't getting any YouTube money.
Unlike Ryan situation, we we realised it in advance.
It was a blessing in disguise I think.
Wouldn't you say, Ryan? Agree with my friend.
Agreed. Yeah, no investment in that
platform that doesn't love us. We don't want it.
Sorry, had to do. It.
I love it though. I.
Rather be with you. I want, I want that song.
I want if somebody knows, yeah, I'll have to look it up because
I know it's in my YouTube email. If I can figure out, yeah, I
know we could Shazam it, but what I want to do is I want they
actually told us what the name was because they they
demonetized us in favour of them.
I want that. I want that artist to do our
theme song because it's so it's so chill.
It reminds me of like a Snoop Dogg kind of vibe, like driving
through Los Angeles, Southern California kind of a thing.
It's so good. Anyway, what the heck are we
talking about? We're talking about the federal
government getting involved in your business.
Now how about propaganda that is favourable?
To the Biden administration cause that's the other piece
they want to push out there. They actually want to push their
message. They want to censor the messages
they don't like. They don't like Elon Musk having
power over over them and the ability to share things and
giving power to you to be able to share what you want.
Right. They want to push a false
message. That's absurd.
And so we found this on the the home page today.
This was actually updated at 6:30 this morning.
It's an article from CNN. It says a viral $16.00
McDonald's meal won't go away, and that's a problem for
Democrats. Well first of all.
That's an Advocacy possession. This is quote unquote analysis
by Alison Morrow. So it's an analysis piece.
This is not. This is not her giving her
opinion, even though her opinion is deep into it.
It's really fun to we started reading this.
I started laughing as I was sharing with Ryan.
So sticker shock. It's old as commerce itself.
It no longer is just irksome unexpectedly high bills.
In the era of social media. Over paying for dinner is an
invitation for anyone and everyone to publicly shake their
fists over the health of the global.
Economy Take the $16.00 McDonald's meal that has struck
a nerve on TikTok late last year.
You could tell how analytical this piece is, how journalistic
it is. It's like an emotional appeal
from a from a millennial TikTok chick.
She could have just been saying this on TikTok the way I just.
Did. If you missed it, here's the
gist. There's a guy in Idaho paid
$16.10 for a burger, a large fries and a drink.
Quote I get that there's a labour shortage.
I get there's wage increases and a number.
Of other things he says in the video.
But $16.00? This is just crazy.
First of all, you're eating at McDonald's, bro.
That's the crazy part. You're eating at McDonald's.
Why are you doing that? What are you, Donald Trump?
You're going to go and go to McDonald's and pay $16.00?
So he did. So they go through and they talk
about, oh, but but of course, fast fight fast food prices are
not nearly as problematic as they say.
Fast food prices have gone up along with everything else in
the past two years. They have to say it.
They can't get away from it. Of course everything got more
expensive, but not by as much as the TikTok video suggests.
A burger in the video. Isn't a standard McDonald's menu
item. You see.
It's not a regular McDonald's menu item.
This we're going to get to that in one second.
Here it was a one off Smokey Double Quarter Pounder with
bacon and cheese, a kind of limited offering that fast food
restaurants roll out in order to gin up sales in a business that
runs on rather razor thin margins.
Because the average Big Mac price in America is actually 558
this summer according to The Economist.
And that's up $0.75. That's only 13% since January of
2020. You guys feel like we're only up
13%? Because I don't.
I've seen what our grocery bills look like.
I know what I get out of a out of a cart at Costco and it sure
as hell not the same. I've watched my bacon price
doubled under Ogden. That's pretty fun.
And I like bacon. I mean, there's no human limit
to how much bacon we can consume.
Because the vast majority of McDonald's restaurants are
independently owned. The prices can vary from region
to region. Here's my favourite part.
For example, in the wealthy town of Darien, Connecticut, a Big
Mac combo menu meal can set you back about $18.00.
So listen, it wasn't like a normal thing that it would cost
you $16.00 for this one off Smokey bacon thing.
But depending on where you are, it might be $18.00.
If you live in a ritzy area, There's actually a video clip
about this. What about the video?
Could you tell me something about Don't they do this in
Europe too, Ryan? Isn't there something about
Europe? European burgers?
Can you play that? For me, I feel like there's a.
I think we've funny, funny response about.
Abortion it. That's not it.
Abortion is not doing. It, is not it.
Play me, my man. They're having a conversation in
the car. They're discussing the
hamburgers. I know you can do this.
We've got some hamburger discussion.
Where is it? I must not have got that one.
Ohe Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I got it.
Killing me slow on the take today.
It's Tuesday. Here you go.
Send it. Hold on, give me one second.
I gotta figure out where we put that video at.
It wasn't in my lineup. It wasn't in my lineup, man.
I didn't just send it cause I thought it was funny.
I mean, I did send it cause I thought it was funny.
That's why we sent it over there.
All right. There's a name, there's a name
for this sort of thing. It's been discussed for a long
time. For those of you who are fans of
movies, going back into my, let's say, adolescence, I think
this is an adolescent mobile. This wasn't childhood. 2 famous
actors having a very important discussion about how things are
not always the same. Depending on where you are,
sometimes you could be in Europe and things might be just a.
Little bit different. They might have a, just a
slightly different. But it's the same thing.
They don't talk about pricing, but I think you guys get the
gist of it. We got this video for us.
Yeah, coming up right now, Mr Serafin, coming 3 right now, 2.
1. Just send it just there.
It's a little. Different example.
Alright, well you can walk into a movie theatre in Amsterdam and
buy a beer. And I don't mean just like a
little paper cup. I'm talking about a glass of
beer. And in Paris you can buy beer in
McDonald's. And you know what they call 1/4
pounder with cheese? And Parrot, they don't call it
1/4 pounder with cheese. It was not the fucking quarter.
They call it Royale with. Cheese Royale with cheese.
Big Mac. Big Mac, Big Mac, But they call
it love Big Mac. Big Mac.
I don't know. I didn't go into Burger King.
The man's got standards. He didn't go into Burger King,
man. He just went to McDonald's.
All I'm saying is, is that like Big Mac Combo could set you back
$18.00 in Connecticut right now. Fast food not that important.
Who just said that in the cause it was it was a that was a an
accurate statement. PED Weirdo $18.00 + 4 milkshakes
is $100 for a family of four to go have a a a combo meal $100.
But here's the thing. They have to push their
narrative right there have to push that.
That's what the power is about. Can they say the thing that they
want and make you believe it. And if you're on the political
left and you like to get spoon fed garbage and you don't think
critically, I don't like the term do your own research.
I just want you to do your own thinking.
Did the thing that they said make sense?
Was it possible that the counter on CNN or Fox or MSNBC or CBS
that showed the number of people that had died from COVID in real
time, was that even possibly real?
Or was that just a number that just went like the national debt
clock? There's just no way that it was
real. I don't want you to do research
on it. I just want you to think, is
there a way that they could have gotten that information when we
don't even know the number of deaths from last year?
We don't. We don't have that data.
It's not available to us. And they were somehow showing it
in accurate real time, allegedly on these fake news programmes.
So that's the real thing. So in the meantime, that's why
you get guys like Joe Biden, a perennial liar who doesn't say
things that are true, doing video #5.
Throw video #5 up there for me if you would, because this is
the claim that he made. If you guys missed this, this is
pretty amazing. It's an amazing statement that
he is going to try to. Sell on you.
Everything is cheaper. It's just your imagination.
Don't do any thinking. Please.
Well, this past week, as America's gathered around their
own kitchen tables for Thanksgiving dinner, that was
our goal, to give them a little more breathing room.
And together we made progress. You know from Turkey to air
travel to tank of gas costs went down.
They went down. What?
Then? Then you had the Republican.
I actually have to pull up their Twitter account because they
actually had a response for their for their actual numbers
on here. The The statement is, is
essentially that airfare has gone up by 21% since Biden took
office, Thanksgiving dinner has gone up by roughly 25%, and gas
prices are $0.86 a gallon higher than the day that he took
office. So there you go.
That's false. It's objectively false.
The things he said are not true, but he doesn't want you to
think. And they want to be able to
hammer that home and they want to be able to censor.
They want to be able to take away that power of you to say
things that are true. Just be like no bro, that's
that's that's inaccurate. What you said is not true.
They don't want that. That's what censorship is about.
It's about stopping certain information from getting from
you and keeping you from putting out a conflicting message to the
the. Dirty narrative that an 18
dollar Big Mac combo meal and anywhere in this country makes
any bit of sense. I don't remember what the prices
when I was a kid, but I remember for like under $5 you get every
value meal for the whole thing. That was the drink and the fries
and it was probably like 4 or 350.
I feel like they were they were those and now you're just like
scraping to get it. Not that you should be going out
there and eating fast food on a regular basis.
There's way better ways to feed yourself.
But my wife and I constantly laugh when we drive through a
drive through with our kids and there's you know in and out
which I think is like actually premium quality food.
I'm going to, I'm going to make that argument.
I'll die on that hill. Fast food is real food if you go
to in and out or if you go to some of the local joints that we
have here there's a place called Torchy's Tacos which is
outstanding. And Garrett Boyle has like a he
has like a long term logging for from Wisconsin cause they don't
have good tacos up in Wisconsin. Apparently.
But when you go there and you go and take your kids to fast food,
and I've got little kids and they eat little kids meals and
you're spending 40-50 bucks. I mean, that used to be a nice
meal for two grown adults. That was a nice meal when I was
a kid. The prices have obviously gone
up with inflation over a long period of time, whether it be
under George Bush or under Clinton or whether under Obama
and so on. I'm just saying though, there's
been a pretty dramatic increase in the last couple years and to
try to ignore that would only happen if you try to own the
mechanisms of government or use government to sway people's
opinion, which is truly bizarre. Speaking of costs going up and
going down and trying to save you deals, I'm wearing A1 off
shirt that Garrett sent me and we've got a promo code on his
website which will pull up here. The Dash suspendable.com.
You guys can check. I don't know if you can get
this. If you guys want the night OPS
stuff that I keep wearing, it's black on black.
It's actually my new favourite. It shows up kind of cool on
camera. It's kind of like low
visibility, but that's kind of my jam.
I don't really wear logo T-shirts.
I don't really wear logo to anything.
So the idea that it be black on black and it's kind of like you
can only see it if you know who I am.
You only you only know to look for it.
If you know to look for it. I'm kind of OK with that.
If you guys are into this shirt, you want to wear a shirt like
this, you have to tell Garrett, throw it in the chat up here.
We'll get a bunch of put like a #1 if you want it, #2 if you
don't care. That is his his last line.
Sub Stack shirt, thedashexpendables.com and then
just use my promo code. That will legitimately save you
10%. That's an actual #10%.
We're not making that number up. It's across the board.
And this is the Oboyle family sweatshops deal if you guys want
to get into the pins, by the way.
They're still there. You can still add 3 for 30 and.
Check it out. I got a pin sitting here so you
can see me in the corner of the screen.
Here I'm holding one of these, the suspendable spins.
This is the size of the lapel pin.
It's actually pretty good size like the size of a maybe a
little bit of than 1/4. And these are the new patches
that he just threw up there some you guys want this.
If you guys have a plate carrier and you want to put a
sustentables on there. If you're like my buddy George
Hill who sent me a message yesterday saying that he was out
marching around wearing his plate carrier and pro tip is
never wear a plate carrier if you're not carrying a weapon
system as well because someone might try to steal your plate
carrier. It's a good way to get a weird
look from the cops. Scroll down one more if you
would. We go back one.
Ryan, you Scroll down one or you can see the patches.
Throw those up on there. I got a couple of my mind.
This is this is a good looking set of patches folks.
And the neat thing on these two, for me it's the, it's the
details. If you get close enough here,
can we get them to the point where you can see them?
Sort of the detail. Throw me back.
There you go. You can see how zoomed in even
the feathers are all carved out. Really nice stuff.

Hey, what's that all about? You can tell about the Serpent
show, which you can give us a like right now if you're
watching on rumble. We should do that.
We doing for likes today, Ryan. We doing OK, Doing really good,
man. We just made it to #15 on the
live stream leaderboard and we're like #8 on podcast, so a
few more likes will be at #1. Alright folks, keep keep
punching it out there and if you guys will share these episodes,
we appreciate. I'm gonna do a recap right now.
We had a really important show yesterday.
I think the things that we were showing, like I said, it's one
thing to believe it, it's another thing to see it with
your own eyes. What I want to do is, if you'll
bring up the article that I wrote, which was a topic number
six on there, that's the uncovered DC.
Folks, go go check out Uncovered DC and the article we wrote
entitled about Quiet Skies on Tracy Bean's website.
She's a friend of ours. She does the Dark Light podcast.
She's a good person. She's been good to me.
She's been very she's been very favourable as as far as
receiving things. I sent her this the night before
last and she got it out yesterday morning.
If that tells you fast turn around time, you know I don't.
Work for her. I just sent her a piece and said
would you publish this? There's no money involved.
I just want the stories out and being having having this sort of
an outlet to go do it. We're going to go on a couple of
radio programmes and talk about it.
I'll be doing it in DC today on Vince Colonises radio show.
If you happen to be in the DC area turn on Vincent show.
But here it is. Newly discovered letter by
representative Thompson. Potential cause of the TSA
placing innocent? Americans on a terror watch
list. That's what Quiet Skies is.
So we're talking about. The the big story here, I'm
gonna break break it out to it. And you'll have to read the
article because it's full of hyperlinks.
I spent a lot of time on this documenting the facts are I
wrote it like I was writing evidence for you.
OK, so if you want this. Story It's different than many
things you'll read that are just like kind of hit pieces and it's
just covering the headline. What I want to do is analysis
number one, I believe that Benny Thompson in a in a very veiled
way told the TSA administrator the top person over at TSA to do
one thing. And that thing was to stop the
free movement of American citizens in violation of the 1st
Amendment. That's my contention.
Benny Thompson violates the 5th Amendment and their due process
by going and telling an administrator, David Petoski.
Stop allowing these people to travel freely.
And he goes on to include that he believes that they are white
supremacists and domestic terrorists, even though many of
these people were unconvicted and a lot of them were
uncharged. That's what the Quad S the the
Quiet Skies programme is. It is a it is a a burden on your
ability to freely travel, which has been established under
multiple Constitutional Court cases and and Supreme Court law.
But the most relevant one I found was one that was called
Ward versus Maryland goes back to 1870.
This is not a new concept. The federal government cannot
get involved in this, the stopping of free movement
between the states. That's what it says, OK?
And Benny Thompson, who ended up being the guy who was given the
the chairmanship of that unselect committee on January
6th, this very partisan investigation, which was
nominally A bipartisan, but it was only in bipartisan in name
only. They had people like Liz Cheney
on there, right? And Adam Kinzinger, what they
did was they did a big cover up. So he started off with a belief
that on January 11th when he wrote this letter that they were
white supremacists, they were domestic terrorists and they
needed to be stopped. Even though it wasn't.
There was no judicial process in place.
They used an administrative agency, the TSA, to stop this,
using the authorities that they abused under the Fifth
Amendment, I believe. And then they move forward.
And the result was Benny Thompson was then put in charge
of the investigation to J6, which came up with a predictable
predetermined outcome. And the end result was something
we talked about with Sonia. And if you'll move on to the
next one. This is a topic 7.
Ryan. The TSA officers actually got a
raise. And this is the really telling
point for me in this I'm just drawing the dots for you.
You guys connected? If they make sense to you.
TSA officers celebrate the first paycheck with a 31% raise, the
largest in the TSA's history. Since the creation of the TSA's
two decades ago, officers have been the lowest paid federal
employees in the nation. Not anymore.
First of all, they're the lowest paid in the nation because
they're the least qualified of anything you don't even like.
You need like a high school diploma to do this.
It's an hourly job with no particular skill set and the
reason why? They're the worst and they are
the most incapable. Because we know that they have a
95% failure rate of doing the flipping job that they're paid
to do, which we're gonna cover in just one second.
But this particular article says on July 27th the AFGE that is
the that is the workers. Group.
That's that advocates on their behalf.
Representative Bennie Thompson, who we just mentioned and the
Department of Homeland Security held a joint press conference at
let's tie it all together. Ronald Reagan International
Airport. See how this all goes together.
This is God working with a little plan.
Before we even knew it, they held a joint press conference.
To say that today is a turning point for the TSA, for the
workers, for the administration, for America.
Today's paycheck is more than a monetary incentive.
It's a symbol of respect. It's a symbol of dignity as they
take away respect and dignity from those unconvicted, January
6th accuses. That's made up the quiet skies.
And the other thing that we know, which is the wildest part,
is I talked to a guy named Brandon Straka.
Many of you guys know him. He founded the Walk Away
movement, which is taking people away from the Democrat Party.
The wildest thing is this. He experienced the Quad S sort
of pat downs and enhanced security.
And all those screenings, he experienced them until he pled
guilty and he served his sentence and he got out.
So why in the world would it be that people that have actually
pled guilty and are quote unquote guilty, that have been
quote unquote convicted or they've actually faced the
justice, are now no longer held accountable under this system?
They're the ones that are let free because the punishment is
part of the process. The process is the punishment.
That's what that process is. If they can't get it in the
courts, they're going to get it administratively.
And that is what tyranny looks like.
It's arbitrary and capricious abuse of power, whether they're
censoring speech or whether they're going and keeping you
from going on a plane and making you buy a new ticket or miss
your son's graduation or whatever it is in the world that
you are trying to fly to do a business meeting, a job
interview, see your family member before they die.
All these things are being taken away and they're being done
without due process. That was the point and the and
the obvious point is. There's no reason for you to
give these people a raise when they suck at what they do.
Ryan, will you bring up that last article from ABC?
This is not even news. This goes back to 2015.
This is pre Trump. This is Obama era.
And this is when they stopped putting these things out there.
Mock explosives, Weapons are smuggled through checkpoints.
Investigation revealed they failed 67 of the 70 Red Team
tests that were going on with TSA.
Those numbers have not gotten any better.
That's why they don't publish them anymore.
An undercover agent was at stop for setting off alarm with a
magnetometer, but the TSA screeners failed to detect a
fake explosive device which was taped on his back during a
follow up pat down. That means a red team was able
to get a bomb taped to a guy's spine through.
That's incredible stuff. That's why they don't deserve
it. And yet they did the bidding of
their political master, Benny Thompson.
And that's the argument, That's the belief that we have, that
they went on and did this Quad as programme.
That should be a truly, truly upsetting thing to you, because
the Rays came from not performance, but simply for the
quid pro quo of punishing J Sixers for the awful thing of
exercising their First Amendment beliefs, most of whom were not
violent offenders. People like Brandon Straka just
said things. You're allowed to do that in
this country, it turns out, or at least you used to be.
That's where it's at, folks. That's where we're at for the
day. I don't think we missed
anything. Leave it on kind of a light
note. We had this video.
The Ryan sort of tease it out there.
There's this ongoing sort of viral video.
This guy got in trouble. Allegedly there's a bunch of
these like no humour leftists that want to censor people
speech and their thoughts and their comedy.
So here's his fun argument and I'm going to set it up before
you go into it. The argument is this, if you're
going to abort black babies, who are overwhelmingly the victims
of abortion and I said if the word victim intentionally,
they're the victims of abortion in this country.
If you're going to just kill them, wouldn't it be better to
let them be born and sell them to people And that's this guy
making a comedic argument. It's it's the the the argument
style is called like. Reaction to absurdity.
So he's he's reducing this to an absurd proposition that we
should just sell the black babies that you were otherwise
going to kill. By the way, Planned Parenthood
sells their body parts anyway, but wouldn't it be better if
they're born, sold into slavery? This is the kind of the argument
he's making in a tongue in cheek way, a silly way to show how
absurd it is that being enslaved is actually better than being
murdered before you're born. That's his comment, and he got a
lot of heat for this. But let him make his own
argument. Set it out here.
This guy is not arguing that he's trying to sell people into
slavery. He's showing you how ridiculous
the idea is defending the death of babies.
Go ahead and run that last video clip, which should be video #4.
Funny, funny response about abortion.
When people are like, I'm like, yeah, I'm against abortion.
And they're like, well, I mean, So what are all these black
women supposed to do with their babies and just be like?
I'd buy them. You know, like.
I'll put him to work. Is it better to kill them to let
than let me buy them? Right.
And that's a really funny debate when people just spiral oht
slavery so bad it's so bad we gotta kill them all.
Why is it if like a black woman's gonna have an abortion,
why not just let me buy it? Right.
Free labour for life. Yeah, we call it a rapper's
dozen. Because I'd I'd really like to
see the argument that killing someone is more moral than just
buying them. OK, there it is.
OK, the guy's name is Owen Benjamin.
If you go to his Twitter profile, which is where this
video is going viral all over, he puts this stuff out.
His literally his literal, his literal self description is that
he is a comedian slash farmer and that's it.
And he has a silly video called Noble Savage Up as his pin
tweet. He's a comedian.
He was a stand up. That's what he did.
He did comedy. So to take somebody like that on
face value, it just shows once again that they are not genuine
in their attacks. They're not genuine in the way
that they look at these things and they're obviously not trying
to actually decide whether or not it's a good idea to have
abortion. They're going to just like
scream racism and claw their faces and sit to the sky and do
like that those people did at the Trump inauguration where
they just shriek and and and whale the the grinding of teeth
and the gnashing. That's what's going on here.
But end of the day, the guy's a comedian.
That's what he does. Like I said, if you want to
check him out, it's at Owen Benjamin.
WOW. The end and then the common
spelling of Benjamin and he claims that he's from Bear Teria
wherever the he's just he's like his whole thing is full of it's
full of satire and goofiness. That is not a a real
prescription that he's making. He's simply pointing out the
absurdity of killing off a bunch of children like that's better.
He also said that Patrick Henry, famous for saying give me
liberty or give me death, would have absolutely rather rather be
sold as a slave than be killed, that he was lying to you.
And I think that's a funny position to take as well.
Most people will do almost anything.
Think about what happened in the tyranny to avoid losing their
own life and even losing their own comfort.
Just just take a deep breath and think about how many people that
will really put their life on the line.
Some of you know some of them. Some of you have met some of
them. Some of you have friends who did
put their lives on the line and no longer are with us because of
it. They are.
They are a very few at very scant few and that's why we
reward it with metals and statements of valour and heroism
things like that. So it's worth noting, continue
to mock these people. They're fools.
They don't have strong positions and they don't want to hear
anybody arguing against them with an obviously silly thing.
You can see the the videos from this guy's stand up.
It's literally on. I'm, I'm.
Just seeing out of the corner of my eye.
It's literally the first thing on his Twitter feed.
He's a comedian. Let's take it easy there.
Alright folks, that's it for our show today.
We want to thank all of you for joining us.
We want to thank you for giving us that Like Button and moving

all here and showing up. Every day we see Eric Jason with
a smash. The like do not comply.
I agree with that. God wins.
Ryan Mattis starts with Choo Choo.
Ryan, you can't be throwing money at me if I'm throwing
money at you. This makes no sense.
Chad. Jody 10 bucks saying what Eric
Jason said. Lemon Zinger Another $2.00 on
the Choo Choo and Flo grown girl, Our Florida girl says
happy giving Tuesday Everyone should get a level today.
I wish it could be matched. Not many organisations deserve
as much based on what they do as Kyle and company do.
We really appreciate that. Thanks so much for your for your
your tip on there and then LW or LKW Cross said Mines called a
rumble rant. Yes it is.
It is a rumble rant. We know they're not super chats,
they're rumble rants and I thank you for all of us.
We had a new subscriber looks like who jumped on the the the
list today was that. Babs Babs.

give you a thing. I think it's like 5 bucks a
month. It supports us.
It just goes into a little Kitty that, you know, supports the
channel. We appreciate that.
And then I, Steve Reed with the last Rumble rant saying, when
are we going to hold these politicians creating crimes
against us accountable, man, God, I hope it's soon.
You know, I really do. There's another one.
OK, what else we got? We're just skated through here,
FBI Panty raid said. Read Kyle's article on Uncovered
DC. It's amazing.
I appreciate that. FBI Panty Raid.
I'm. I'm glad that you're safe, my
friend. We also found out that his wife
didn't know we were going to cover the story of his truck.
So we're glad that he's OK. We're glad that all of you are
with us. We look forward to seeing you
again tomorrow. I think we've got a guest
tomorrow, so stand by for that. We'll be talking about more
relevant issues, more problems with our federal government.
We have to be armed. If you want to go into battle
against these people, you have to know what it is if you want
to start making arguments against them.
And one of the things that my wife reminded me of the other
day is that more voices is better, Period.
We're always about. Quality over quantity.
But when it comes to just giving voices out there in the world,
we need to have more voices saying the things that are
saying it proudly and boldly and exercising that power like Elon
Musk does. Power is not like wealth that
you can squander it. It's actually more like a
muscle, and you use it if you don't flex it.
We need to flex some of this power.
Do the right things by doing the right things and saying the
right things over and over again.
So are we there? Are we on the podcast?

Episodes 176 and 170 sevens were you best and so sincere.
You were you, and it sure worked.
I've listened to every show and I've really enjoyed the last
two. 176 was tragically interesting and effective, but
177 was so funny with your phraseology.
I loved a pack show. Debon Gino success has been
because of his sincerity, his analysis, and his topic choices.
You've got your own version, but the combo is magical.
Good work. I love you have a high bar for
friends and that you are the antithesis of a sycophant Laura
Collins. Laura, what a lovely thing to
say that. Really thoughtful thing.
