Take a look behind the curtain with a real whistle blower, an
American patriot prepared to embrace the uncomfortable truth
because this program has no time for comforting lies.
Here is civil liberties enthusiasts, Second Amendment
defender and recovering FBI agent Kyle Seraphin.
Well, hello my friends, welcome to the Kyle Seraphin show.
I'm even wearing a Kyle Seraphin Show teacher.
Today is Tuesday. It is August the 13th and we
will be rolling live on rumble.com/kyle Serif and the
chat is ready on the other places as well like YouTube and
Twitch. I don't know why we're on
Twitch, don't ask me, but we let it all flow into itself.
It'll flow into that little box right over there on the left
that you were seeing on the screen.
And of course, our live chat on Rumble is already bumping along.
Thanks for joining us, y'all. Kind of an exciting little
moment for us. We hit the subscriber mark over
on Locals and you can join us there at kyleseraphin.com if you
are so inclined. In the future, we're going to be
doing some stuff that'll be behind like the subscriber wall,
probably some suspendables, roundtables is what I've been
told. My wife is the one who told me.
So just so you guys are clear. But that's what we ought to do.
And so we're going to try to do some kind of call in type shows
and stuff. We can do some neat things on
that platform. It's Kyle seraphin.com, Kyle
seraphin.com, Kyle seraphin.com. Very easy for you guys to go
over there. If you want to sign up and join
us. We're going to have some fun
over there. I did.
For some reason I feel like live streaming to that app only when
I'm out and sweaty and borderline retarded and hypoxic.
So that's what we do. It's a neat little place.
It's a neat little way for us to share some information.
Yesterday's little reflection, which is available to anybody if
you guys want to go see it, was looking at those speed readers
that you see the infrared or the what do they call them?
They're like the police, how fast am I go and check your
speed things. They're a great place to hide A
surveillance tool that many people are not aware of.
And most local law enforcement, state law enforcement and
federal have access to these trailers that they can go set up
in a place they couldn't put up what we would call a static
physical eye, which is a person sitting there and watching.
And if they want to keep an eye on what's going on in places
where it wouldn't otherwise work, you can use those
trailers. Just little insights as you guys
are going around the world, sharing some of the situational
awareness that I've been able to pick up in the strange life that
I've lived. From a restaurant guy to
somebody who worked in finance in a movie studio, to a guy who
was enlisted in the military and an ambulance driver and then an
FBI agent, particularly one who did surveillance for a couple
years, dedicated. So if you guys want to get some
of that stuff, go over to kyleseraphin.com.
We're going to get into a great show today, I think, because
we've got a ton of topics. We're going to definitely kick
the hornet's nest with some of you.
And that's OK with me. That's what we're here to do.
I want to challenge your mind, and I also want to reinforce
that skepticism is the route that you must take as you
evaluate the news cycle. Before we get started, Catholic
Vote is our premium sponsor. They are the biggest single
sponsor of our show. We're really grateful for them.
I've got a great story coming out of the loop.
If you guys do not get the loop, then you're going to be missing
out on this stuff. Yes, we'll cover some of it, but
certainly not all of it. It's a dozen stories every
morning or so and it punches out really, really good content well
above its weight for what it is. catholicvote.org is the website.
Just go there and fill out your e-mail address.
Give me your zip code. And the reason they're doing
that is because they're doing targeted support for people like
President Trump trying to get people into office.
It is a voting based organization, but it is a faith,
family and freedom focused organization.
That's the things that they hone in on.
Those are the value sets that guide the votes that they're
trying to push. And whether you're Catholic,
Roman Catholic or not, it doesn't really matter.
One, the loop is very good. It doesn't matter if you are.
And two, the goals that they have are going to be aligned
with you. If you're a Christian or if
you're just a conservative and you're not religious, it doesn't
really make a difference, honestly.
You're not donating to like the Catholic Church per SE, if you
guys want to support them, but you certainly can do it at
catholicvote.org/give. All right, that's the
housekeeping out of the way. Should we get started?
Should we kick the nest straight up front?
My friend Steve Baker, investigative reporter,
investigatory journalist. I like investigatory because it
was in Zoolander and it made fun of the idea of that word.
Steve Baker has been hanging on what is going on in Butler, PA.
This is, I think he has some of the most sane takes.
I don't agree with everything that Steve Baker says.
This is the best thing about being a old school kind of
conservative person. I don't have to agree with
everything My friends think. We can disagree politely and we
do. I think he thinks there's a lot
more going on than there was and someone has to ask those
questions. When you evaluate the situation
in Butler, PA, this is where Donald Trump was shot at and
somebody was murdered and other people were seriously injured
because some kid got up on a roof, 20 year old kid, and took
potshots into a crowd. There's a few things that are
troubling to me about the way that everybody is approaching
this in the social media sphere. And I know that's not everybody,
but a lot of people keep saying things like it's an inside job.
It has to be, allow me to ask you the question.
And you should be asking the same.
Why? Why does it have to be an inside
job? Why does it have to have
involvement from the Secret Service?
Why does it have to have involvement from the FBI of all
people? So you have to sort things into
unlikely but but possible, plausible, but still fairly
unlikely, probable, and then most likely.
And when you get into the plausible and then probable and
the probable and the most likely, you should be giving it
degrees of weight and what it would take for you to step over
the line into that and say, yes, I think this is more likely than
not. Yes, I think this is most likely
because of what's going on at the moment.
I'm waiting for evidence, and we don't have enough evidence in
the public sphere. This is a massive problem with
the way that the FBI does business.
This is why I would have loved if the state police were to
handle this or do a concurrent investigation.
That's not going to be the case. We're not going to get our wish.
But what we're seeing on the screen right here is what
appears to be an undercover or a plainclothed officer of some
kind. It's hard to say what that badge
is. It could be the Secret Service
uniform Division. That's a real possibility as an
officer. They have two different badges
in the Secret Service. One of them is the Secret
Service agent badge, and they have a different badge all
together for officers, particularly in the uniform
division. Uniform Division does a lot of
the on the ground surveillance on the ground plainclothes work.
I've worked with them in Washington, DC.
They constantly have people walking around.
If you are generally in the vicinity of the White House, you
will run across people who are dressed in a certain way.
And I'm not going to give them away honestly, because of it is
actually a dead giveaway when you know some of the ways that
they dress and the things that they do.
This guy doesn't look necessarily like one thing or
another. He's wearing a darkish colored
Volcom T-shirts or like a surfer shirt.
It's a little bit inappropriate for a guy his age.
He's got to be at least my age based on the Gray beard.
And he's wearing, you know, cargo khaki pants.
Sorry, cargo khaki short. That's going to be important in
a second. So there's a man that's walking
around looking like this. And that's normal.
And it's something that I've said that you probably would see
if we got all the truth. There are almost always people
that are walking around in plain clothes in a crowd.
What they are looking for is ways to protect everybody's
First Amendment liberties, to be happy or sad or yell, but not
infringe on anyone's civil liberties by going out there and
committing a crime. So when I used to do this stuff
for the FBI, there's a, there, there's a, a thing called an
NSSE, which we've talked about on this program, the national
special security event. And so I was interacting with
Secret Service on a regular basis and we would deal with
uniform division, we would deal with agents and officers, which
are a pay grade difference and a responsibilities difference.
But essentially the same job meandering around partnered up
one FBI 1 Secret Service person looking for people that are,
let's say, dropping a backpack behind a, a tree.
Why is that a problem? Because somebody could leave
explosives. We don't want that.
We want the crowd to be able to do whatever the crowd is going
to do as long as they're not, you know, obstructing areas.
If they start moving into a zone where they're like, let's say,
interfering with traffic or interfering with the movement of
emergency vehicles, we can call that in, covertly texted in,
etcetera. And you would share that with
somebody who would send a uniformed response and we would
remain in plainclothes. What we saw on the screen right
there is this guy who has his badge out.
This is after the shooting took place and the one thing that I
told you, the cacophony of errors that compounded, which
yes, they do strain credulity right up to the point where
you've dealt with federal service.
And the more that it comes out, the fact that you, we are, we're
hearing that the Secret Service did not accept local radios.
So they didn't have direct comms with the other sniper teams and
the, the ground units that the guys that were up in the
sniper's nest that we're doing the sort of counter surveillance
or counter sniper mission up on those two roofs.
They didn't have the ability to interact directly, let's say
with this guy who was on the ground who's a spotter.
And that's what you do when you're on the counter
surveillance. I've arrested people in that
role. I've spotted people in that role
and called what we called I teams, investigative teams.
There is a, an entire apparatus that goes in that you can see
and then some that you can't see and then some that you could see
if you knew where to look, if you will.
OK, so layers upon layers. And all of them failed.
Obviously in PA, the biggest single story is never.
It's never, at least right now, going to be some kind of
conspiratorial movement where a bunch of people got together and
decided to try to kill Donald Trump.
Do you know why I know that's true?
Because they didn't kill Donald Trump.
You don't need to have a Patsy and all the other nonsense when
the mission was unsuccessful. And this is the problem that I
have with people that have gone into this space that are just
like yelling about, Oh my God, there was multiple shooters.
Every single person that has claimed that there were doesn't
have any evidence. In fact, all the video says
there was somebody on a on a watchtower and there was
somebody up on the water tower that got away with the zip line.
It's like that's all BS. I know it's BS because videos
have shown that that wasn't the case.
Then there's other people claiming there was a guy that
was in the lower level and they were showing videos that we've
shown on this this program and there was a there was a flash in
the window from a first story window.
You think they were able to get up and over a crowd and hit
Donald Trump from a downward angle upward.
All these things are debunked in real time simply by the fact
that that the proximity. But everybody is so excited
about trying to get to the to the first.
Nobody cares about being right and then includes a lot of
different names on the political right and also some like real
dumb people that are in the conspiracy place.
They didn't succeed in the attempt.
So I don't need to explain one shooter missing with two
shooters missing. That seems more illogical,
doesn't it? If you actually had like a
ringer, that's the claim that somebody was a ringer.
The real shooter was actually hidden.
And then the the the kid Thomas Crooks was the Patsy.
The Patsy for what? The failed attempt, what it
looks like to me looking at it, having made a lot of 130 a
hundred and 5200 yard rifle shots with an AR, including with
iron sights, including with just red dot sights and not just
magnified optics. When you've done that a lot, it
looks like he had a bad zero. He probably didn't know how to
do what he was doing, or he jerked it to the left and missed
Trump because he was aiming probably at a small enough
target that it wasn't effective. What we saw the other day was
the records released by Grassley that showed how many times he'd
been to the range. But that doesn't say anything
about the the level of training, proficiency or capabilities that
he had. How many people have you met
that said, I've been shooting for years and you go out and
shoot with them and they're terrible.
It's a lot. There's a reason why I'm able to
hit targets with a pistol at 200 yards.
And I have friends that have been shooting for longer than me
and have been carrying pistols for way longer than me that
can't make that same shot at 50 or 80 yards.
It's because their fundamentals are bad.
And so if this kid didn't have that skill set, what I saw was
he almost hit him once. But basically his general
practice in the seven or eight shots, whether you think it was
five or seven or eight, the FBI said eight pieces of brass.
They all missed the the assumed target of Donald Trump.
OK, missed one of them narrowly hit him, nicked him in the ear.
But that looks like an accident if it's one out of eight, which
tells me that his either his zero was bad or his fundamentals
were terrible or he wasn't aiming at all, which is possible
because you heard the first three shots were measured.
After that, it got rapid and fast.
The fact of the matter is, is why he wasn't shot right away
when he was crawling up. The rifle is the thing that is
most interesting to me. And it's interesting because one
of the things that I postulated right up front was that nobody
wants to get involved in the blue.
On blue you shot a cop. In the head scenario, you shot a
cop and put him down hard and look at what this man is
wearing. He's wearing the same exact
color shorts, khaki shorts, and there's almost always a
deconfliction moving. Whether that happened or not, I
can't say, but there's a decent chance that they knew that they
were friendlies in the crowd and that some of those friendlies
were dressed in plain clothes and looked like this guy.
There's another picture of them. These are all what they would
call like undercover or low visibility law enforcement.
They're wearing darkest blue shirts that may have been a
uniform that they came up with and khaki pants.
The kid was wearing a Gray. Looking at a scope from 440
yards away, 450 yards away. It would be very easy to have a
pause and say, Oh my God, am I about to shoot one of our guys?
I don't know why he's on that roof and I don't know why he has
a rifle, but I'm not ready to take that first shot right up
until he engages and then they go in and what we saw was the
closest sniper team didn't engaged, seemed to flinch, pull
off the glass. And the team that was furthest
away with the one that ended up making the kill shot from
everything we can hear at 448 yards.
Donald Trump mentioned that last night.
I actually corrected somebody on the right who I like a lot.
It was like, Oh my God, is he just making stuff up that the
sniper shot from three times further than the actual shooter
did? No, he didn't make it up.
From everything we can tell that's what happened.
But these pictures show three different plain clothes.
They're calling them undercover, but let's tell them what they
are. Low visibility people that were
in a law enforcement role that were wearing khaki shorts and a
dark T-shirt. And when you see that, you go,
Oh my God, the shooters that were up there in the counter
snipe position may have had pause simply because these guys
were out there in the in the crowd.
And I see you in the chat saying it doesn't explain leaving Trump
on the stage. No, it doesn't.
Except that you saw who was the one that we're doing the body
work. You had three of the people in
close proximity to Donald Trump were females that panicked and
asked, what are we doing? What are we doing?
Remember the original videos?
A lot of these people did not ever get there.
And here's a real scary question for you, because I think this is
actually worth spending another moment or two on.
How many interrupted attempts, not investigative attempts where
like the FBI comes out and sit and shoots a guy in Utah and
says, oh, he was making threats against the president, so we
went out there and execute a search warrant and interrupted
his plot. Those are not real to me.
I'm talking about how many people woke up one morning,
grabbed a weapon system or an explosive system and went to an
event where a Secret Service protectee is.
And I don't care who that person was, if it was a foreign
dignitary, the president of the United States, somebody running
for president, the vice president, take your pick.
In the last 40 years since Reagan, how many people have
been nabbed trying something on the day of?
How effective is the security apparatus when they are in the
field at a place like Butler, PA, at A, at a, a big park or a
County Fair? We don't really know.
That's where I would like to see the beginning of the security
audit. How many times have you
interdicted somebody that was trying to pull off what Thomas
Crooks did? Or have you been relying on the
reputation of your agency that says we are the most elite and
badass capable force and nobody will ever take one of our
protectees and you just assume that nobody's ever going to try
you. Do any of these people have real
world experience interdicting somebody in real time?
My guess is it's very, very few. And then the last thing that you
have to understand, and I had this little back and forth on
Twitter yesterday with somebody, but I want you guys to
understand it is very rare for federal agents to be authorized
to do something proactively sue Espante without having like a
call and someone saying, OK, yes, you are authorized to go
and do this. The, the one time that I've
arrested somebody without having an arrest warrant, what we would
call like an in the field, you know, probable cause based
arrest. I, I did it after my Secret
Service counterpart called into Secret Service and said, Hey, do
you want to send someone or do you want us to do this?
The reason is because we were in a low visibility role.
We were wearing plain clothes. I was wearing like a Carhartt
hoodie. So we had to pop the vest out
and, you know, pop out the badge and then go and bring the guy
into custody. But we got permission to do that
because the, you don't want to go and arrest somebody and then
find out they're going to drop the charges afterwards.
There's some real liability. There's a lot of failure to have
these reps in federal law enforcement.
It's a massive problem because people think that that federal
agents are like cops and they're not.
I'm telling you, I was not a cop.
I didn't get to behave like a cop.
I didn't have the ability to pull somebody over, just start
asking questions. Our ability to do investigative
detentions are very low, and the department's really dissuade you
from doing that. The agencies do.
That's certainly the case in the places where I worked FBI.
That's definitely ADOJ wide thing.
And I have to imagine it also extends into Secret Service who
primarily is doing protection. They're not doing investigative
work on the ground. So it is important for us to
realize that these are not like a one to one like they're just
like a cop who will come up and start asking you questions,
especially when you're in plainclothes.
So all that stuff is worth knowing.
Like I said, that may kick the hornet's Nets and upset you, but
I want you to think before you make decisions about what
happened because you don't have the the material.
I know that I don't. I know that I don't have the
ability to see what happened because I don't have access to
hundreds of witness statements. I don't have access to walking
the sites. And the people that have been
walking the sites, most of them are not trained law enforcement.
And the ones that are, they're politicians.
So we are, I kind of discount them too.
OK, When you look at the scene, start from the position of
skepticism. And if you want to believe
something, your move should be to try to disprove it, not go
out there and attack people who are who are.
It's like, tell me more the answer when somebody says
something that you don't agree with, particularly in this sort
of conspiratorial nature. And again, you don't need a
conspiracy to fail at shooting a man.
You don't need anything. You just need one person out
there who's a bonehead and who got away through a lot of
federal incompetence. Incompetence is the default
position for government until proven otherwise.
That's where I would like recommend you go.
And that's not covering for any agencies.
I'm more than happy to see them all kicked to the curb.
I'd shut them all down, but you have to be like discerning in
your thought process, and a lot of people are not.
And I don't want the story to go away, by the way.
I don't want the story of Secret Service failure and the FBI
investigating it to go away. It would be a major misstep for
the Trump campaign to let that fall.
So it's probably a good thing. He talked about it with Elon
Musk last night. We'll talk about that in just a
minute. Let's do another win for the
people because we did one the other day.
The ATF, yet another kind of black eye.
Again, this is a story talking this coming from Zero Hedge.
So I'm going to get into it in in real form here.
We'll just say a federal appeals court, it was in North Dakota
this time found that the rule, again, these are rules that were
issued under the Administrative Procedures Act.
This is why the Chevron difference is so important and
why it got turned over and why that's important.
The appeals court in North Dakota found that the rule
issued by BATF, which is the Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms,
the convenience store that equals government law
enforcement agency, even though it's supposed to only collect
taxes, that restricts the ownership of pistol attachments
known as stabilizing braces. Braces is both arbitrary and
capricious, which is a good reason for them to knock it
down. Ordering a lower court to
reconsider a motion that would block the enforcement of a ban
on the braces. It was a 2 to one decision.
So this was what they call a panel, but not an end bank
decision. This was an appeal from the
original level. So that's good.
This means that it's moving up to the courts and we might even
see something higher. This was done through the 8th
Circuit, the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals, and the majority
found that the coalition of 25 Republican attorneys general are
likely to succeed in their legal challenge against the ATF, which
is dealing with pistol braces and calling them these pistols,
short bail rifles. Now, of course, you guys know
I'm a gun guy and I'm going to help you out if you're not
watching right now, about 22 minutes in, if you want to come
see the difference. If you're not familiar, you can
always Google it. But you could also come and look
at me. So what I have right here is one
of the most popular stabilizing braces that you will find.
OK, This is a stabilizing brace made by SB Tactical.
It is one of the biggest names in the space.
And this is the SBA 4, if memory serves.
I think I know it's the four, but I don't know if it's SBA or
if it's SBSBA 4 is what I believe it's called.
This is an adjustable length pistol brace, OK?
And it is characterized by having this hole in the back
where you theoretically can put your arm in, although you don't
have to because people shoulder these all the time, but that's
what it's for. It is designed and that's the
keyword to allow you to stabilize it with A1 handed shot
from an AR pistol, which of course is sort of.
Silly, the ATF has made the argument that if you shoot
something with one hand, it's a handgun. 2 hands, it's a rifle.
If it was designed to be shot with two hands, then it's a
rifle. And but the problem with that
is, at least for me, is that I guarantee the ATF trains all of
their agents to shoot 2 handed when they use a handgun.
Just like I was trained at the FBI.
Just like every law enforcement officer was trained all the way
back to the goofy teacup method where you were shooting a
revolver with one hand underneath it and the other
hand, you know, one for stabilization, one for grip.
It's always two handed with a handgun.
Shooting one handed goes back to like the 60s and it's dumb.
So here it is one more time. This is stabilizing brace, and
this is a damn near identical. OK, this is a stock brace.
Stock. The stock is basically narrower.
It actually gives you less purchase on your shoulder, but
it's solid. Then you can't put your wrist in
there. In theory, if this had some sort
of a Velcro strap so you could use it to stabilize on the
inside of your forearm, This also could be a brace.
I don't know. It seems absolutely stupid and
that's why it's considered to be arbitrary and capricious.
You can see that from these things.
Look here they are from the back, here they are from the
sides. They have the same profile.
They look very, very similar. They have the same amount of
plastic. There's the same amount of
technology. They have similar costs.
You guys are hearing the plastic?
There it is. ASMR types.
Listen, these things are almost identical in function and use,
and all you need to do is have a a band of some kind to wrap
around your forearm to make a stock be a brace.
As far as I'm concerned, there's a reason why these courts are
having a problem with it. And what should happen is we'd
like to see this go all the way up again.
Second Amendment absolutist here.
That's why I'm OK with illegal immigrants being able to buy
guns. I don't really care.
I've got more than them and I've got more money than them.
I will buy better guns than them every time.
What I want to see is this. This move up to the point where
the short barreled rifle restrictions in the National
Firearms Act of 1934 is ruled unconstitutional as well.
It's an entire category of weapons and having a barrel
length is irrelevant to anything.
Congress should really repeal it.
Stupid. And if they want to charge a tax
on us buying firearms, so be it. And then we can go after that.
If you guys don't know, in 1934, the, the Attorney General
Bonaparte, who by the way is the named, it's the name of the
auditorium that is inside FB is headquarters, the Hoover
building. That attorney general pushed
forward legislation and got a suite of legislation to
criminalize even though it should have never been able to
do it. The possession of silencers or
suppressors, they're called both.
The the patent for the original design is actually called a
silencer. So if you guys are trying to
straighten people out and correct them, don't be wrong.
They wanted to straighten out whether or not people could have
short barreled shotguns and short barreled rifles and then
machine guns, which is very specifically defined not based
on the rate of fire, but based on the way the trigger works.
And then of course the the issue with suppressors, all these
things were not banned, categorically could not be
banned. So they had to put it, put a
taxed animal on it. And the tax stamp was prohibited
for the average person in 1930, four $200.00 with thousands of
dollars in today's money. So it was a lot of money and
that was what they tried to do. They basically made it available
to the rich. You guys want to know, Gun
control is always racist and it's always classist and it's
always been that way. Every single instance of this
stuff has been put out that way. So it's very interesting to me
to see that our courts, even in the Eighth Circuit, which is
not, you know, the one you hear about all the time, the 5th
Circuit does really good rulings.
But even in this North Dakota court and in this this panel
decision, the majority has ruled that this arbitrary and
capricious rule is stuck. Now the one person who dissented
was sort of a Lib judge and his statement was that this was moot
simply because there was already a preliminary injunction and it
was already stopped. So they can't enforce this and
they basically abandoned this rule because the ATF can't make
it happen. The real issue here from for the
capricious nature of it is these were all submitted to the F to
the ATF technology division years ago, like a decade and a
half ago. And they were ruled to be not a
stock and therefore could be used as a pistol brace for what
they were designed to do. And then they changed their mind
after Trump under under Biden. And this has been this fight
back and forth of the ATF trying to creep in and shut down and
criminalize more otherwise law abiding gun owners who found an
engineering solution to a problem, which is how do we get
a shorter barrel on a rifle? They're still not concealable
people. I will pull something here at
some point. I have a A7 inch barrel on an
AR. It's a 5567 inch.
It's like an interior gun. It is not concealable unless
you're enormous. So it's very frustrating to see
the ATF working against the interests of the citizens,
working against our freedom. It's nice to see the courts
working in our favor and we are seeing that.
So that's kind of helpful. I'm going to do a quick read for
my buddies over at Mad Hat Jerky.
I think this is going to pop up there.
It is Mad Hat Jerky if you guys want to support the program.
I'm just about to order another round.
Mad Hat jerky.com/kyle Kyle at the end of that.
Matt with two T's hat with one TS jerky.
It is the steak in a bag best tasting snack that we use in the
Seraphin house. It's the only protein sometimes
that my son will eat because he's three and he's weird and he
does weird stuff like that. He's weird JD Vance style. 20%

That will let you set up if you want to do a subscription.
Once you figure out what you like, you can use it again
there. You can only use the the the
promo code there one time. If you wait like a couple of
weeks, they'll come back to you and offer you another promo code
and you can save money on that. Or if you subscribe, you'll get
20% off right off the bat. I always recommend like the two
ounce bags. Once you figure out what you
like, get yourself either A6 or 12 ounce and get a real big bag
of this stuff because you'll go through it and it lasts for a
couple of months. It's a good snack you can keep
on your desk. So you just don't end up hangry
and yelling at your wife for something that you did yourself.
You know, like some kind of thing like you misplaced your
phone or your wallet and you're trying to blame somebody else.
Don't do that. Don't get hangry.
Not your spouse. All right, let's talk about JD
Vance because this is kind of fun.
So I found this this morning. I was very interested in the
story, mostly because I've been waiting for some really good hit
pieces. JD Vance is weird is not a very
good hit piece. It turns out it's not very
interesting and it's not very strong.
So this new line of attack is funny to me.
Workers allege a nightmare condition at Kentucky startup
that JD Vance helped fund. Multiple reporters working on
this for CNN. And they must have put some real
money into this because apparently they went out and
interviewed people in Kentucky. And I got to imagine people who
work for CNN do not want to go and hang out with people in
Kentucky, but they did, allegedly.
So I'm going to start this article off.
I'm going to tell you a little bit what I think about it
because I read the whole thing and it hits kind of flat.
To be fair, it's not a very good hit piece as far as they go
because very little of it has anything to do with JD Vance.
That's the real thing. Can you tie malfeasance or some
sort of improper action to the individual?
No, the way that they're tying it is that his money was
involved in the fund that created an app and A and a
company that he didn't run. He was like, I don't even know
if he was on the board. From what I can tell, it looks
like he was just an investor. All right, Venture capitalist JD
Vance, he's repeatedly touted that his guiding principles for
investing in a company is that a business should not only turn a
profit, but it should help American communities.
This is a great aspiration. Most businesses do not turn a
profit ever. Most businesses go out of
business. So once you know that, it
changes the way that you look at these things.
And the whole point of being an Angel investor or coming in as a
venture capitalist is that there is a venture, there is a risk
you are going to try to go after something and create something
out of nothing that wasn't previously there.
And it may or may not be successful.
And if it's not successful, that's normal, right?
That's why it's out venture. The people who have better track
records, you know, have more credibility in this space.
So he invested in a group that was called App Harvest.
APP Harvest. It was a startup that promised a
high tech future for farming and for workers in Eastern Kentucky.
Now, because this is CNN, they went after and talked about how
brilliant it was. I'm sorry that that that was so
terrible and what happened. But if they had done it,
basically, let's say that Doug Emhoff had been an investor in
this, they would have been like a brilliant, but, you know,
failed project. And they would have been glowing
about how they tried so hard, but they didn't get there.
It's really interesting to see this kind of stuff.
It's not just a good investment opportunity.
It's a great business to make a difference in the world.
That's what JD Vance said on Fox Business the day that the
company went public. That's what you do when you were
going behind a project. He became kind of like a de
facto spokesperson in some ways. That's CN NS claim.
I don't see that listed by him. So there you go.
Once again, we'll just take it for whatever it's worth.
They they went hundreds of millions of dollars in debt and
eventually declared bankruptcy. They tried really hard and we're
not successful. This is common in American
businesses. CNN reviewed the public
documents, interviewed dozens of former workers there and showed
that it not only failed as a business after pursuing rapid
growth. This is a common misstep.
People overstep and they don't, you know, scale properly.
But they also provided a grim job experience for the working
class Kentuckians that Vance vowed to help.
Well, did he vow to help them? He put in a bunch of money.
Wasn't even that much money at the end of the day.
It was $150,000. That's not that big of an
investment. Got them basically from going
underwater to sustaining the company.
And then these people got to work there for like 2 years or
something. They were there it looks like
almost three years, 2020. They went public in 2122 and
then by 23 it looks like they were having a problem.
And so this is the issue. There were complaints fired with
the filed rather with the US Department of Labor and Kentucky
regulators who went in and they were claiming there were not
sufficient water breaks, that there wasn't adequate safety
gear and so on, and that the workers suffered heat exhaustion
or injuries. The state inspectors came in and
didn't find any violations. So how funny the people on the
political left who love the government to come into the
business, the business of the government didn't come in.
You know why? Because government is mediocre.
Maybe they're actually were real problems there.
It sounds like the temperatures inside the greenhouse as they
were running reached up to 128°, which is super hot.
That's really uncomfortable. But out of curiosity, when you
sign up to work in a job as a greenhouse worker, what kind of
temperatures do you expect? What sort of humidity do you
expect? I just don't know.
Like I would never sign up for that.
I've I've heat stroked out. My body temp has been over 106
and I don't handle heat as well. It's the reason why I go run in
the heat 1520 minutes and 100°. It sucks especially at high
exertion. These people are crying that
they didn't get water. Like, I wear a water pack
everywhere I go, and I definitely would be wearing a
water pack if I was going into 128° heat on a regular basis.
It just doesn't really make a lot of sense to me that they're
crying about this sort of thing. But they found a bunch of people
who are disgruntled. And by a bunch, I mean a few
dozen in a country of 350 million.
They found some people who didn't say nice things about it.
Eastern Kentucky is well known for people coming and going or
they're going to do the carpetbagger thing and start up
companies and then they disappear.
They don't care about us. Yeah, they they care about the
company trying to be successful. And the company wasn't
successful. So then what do you want them to
do, pay you for nothing? It's it's very weird.
And I would feel this way if you were trying to make this attack
on anybody. I tried to look at it from the
other side, like, can I get mad about this?
It's hard for me to because I generally side with people, do
work, be responsible, Stop crying.
He was an investor, but he stepped down from the board in
2021. So all the complaints they have
basically come after that fact. And essentially the the beef
that they have it is that they spent money on getting migrant
workers. So they were bringing in either
illegal or legal, but you know, non American citizens, that's a
thing. Those people are willing to work
for less. This is the real problem with
having all these people come in. There are some jobs that
Americans don't want. Turns out 128° greenhouse jobs
are not that interesting to people who live in Kentucky.
But maybe if you grew up in El Salvador in the jungles and it's
really hot all the time and that's like your jam, maybe
you're OK with it. In any case, this this company
came in and turned around some some 60 acre mega greenhouse and
they, they had people quitting jobs from auto parts plants and
from liquor stores. And they came in to go work for
this new startup, which was a high tech thing.
And it was going to offer some opportunities.
And apparently it didn't deliver on being in business forever.
And that's the big take. And they claimed it was a
nightmare. He said the hottest I ever
experienced was 128° a couple days on a week.
You'd have an ambulance show up and you see people leaving on
gurneys to go to the hospital. Well, people do stuff like that
all the time in jobs, too. Anybody who's been in the
military has seen people drop. It happens.
Look, farm work is demanding work.
And if you took a bunch of people who had like, college
degrees in ecology and they wanted to go out there and do
sustainable tomato farming, which is what one of these
ladies talks about, she was very upset about it.
She had to bring her own N95 respirator.
So you're telling me you wore a mask and then it was a, a
million degrees inside? I don't know.
Maybe there was a better way. Maybe they should have
ventilation. Maybe it wasn't done right.
Certainly possible. They don't really document that.
They just had this kind of like grievance session of people that
are disappointed with the way that it turned out.
And they said that we were trained for one thing, but we
didn't get like on the day training.
I don't know. And the contract laborers came
in. I do think this is a little bit
interesting because this is actually kind of a not a great
point for them. They said that the workforce was
mostly made-up of workers from Mexico and Guatemala.
And whatever they brought in, like priority, you know, people
like Mitch McConnell, or they brought in people who are
investors or bigwigs from the company, they would send all the
Mexicans and all of the Guatemalans home so that people
couldn't see them. OK, Yeah, that's not a great
look. That's true.
It's also not documented by someone other than a
disappointed husband of the worker who was disgruntled.
So for whatever it's worth, it's definitely possible.
I could see a company doing that.
It's not a great luck. Doesn't mean it doesn't mean
that it was a bad company or that somehow this was like the
worst thing that ever happened. They even had Martha Stewart on
the board. I don't see them attacking
Martha Stewart, but she was on the board after JD Vance.
They had some people in there. It made some sense.
That's why it had a bunch of money behind it.
Any of you have ever had a tough job?
Like, I've dugout all the dirt, I've taken the dirt that
somebody used to to dig a pool and I put it in in the back of a
wheelbarrow by hand, like hand loaded by shovels and dumped it
all out in a tiny little like T100 pickup truck.
It's like 13 loads to a dump to go drop off dirt.
Sometimes you do hard jobs. That's what being young is
about, I think. Take it for whatever it's worth.
Anyway, that's the attack. How about the really fun
attacks? And these ones are way more
interesting. How about this one on Tim Waltz?
Apparently he misspoke about discussing using his weapons in
war because this is the whole thing.
This is a really anti gun attempt to get into the office.
Like this is more anti gun than Joe Biden.
He's always been kind of anti gun.
Waltz and Kamala Harris are worse.
And so they're push about getting an assault weapons ban
and trying to get somebody who has a military background to
push this forward has been their kind of stock and trade, their
credibility move. The problem is the guy who's
doing it doesn't have that credibility.
He was like an indoor dog. He was a domestic, you know,
domestic National Guardsman. He did have 24 years of service.
We can't take anything away from that.
But the real problem that veterans have is when you lie.
I've had people introduce me on podcasts.
I've had people come forward and say things and you're like, hey,
dude, what's this all about? Like, why?
Why would you introduce me inaccurately?
I've had people say that I was a pair of rescuemen.
That's not accurate. I went through a lot of the
training. I went through 85% of the
training, but I didn't get to put the hat on.
So I don't claim the title. I didn't deploy, so I don't ever
say that I did. If you didn't do something in
the military and you claim you did, you are the turd.
If somebody misrepresents it, the first thing you do is
correct them. And I've done this.
I've done it. It's really uncomfortable, by
the way, to go on someone's program.
They give you this really nice intro and they drop in some
false information that you know you have to correct.
Why? Because you know, you owe it to
the people that you serve with that did more than you or did
something that you didn't do that somebody accidentally
claimed, even if you didn't say it, you straighten it out.
And I've done it. So I've got a little video of
that going on. This is a nod and lie scenario.
There's a lot of this stuff. OK.
And then we're going to kind of finish up here with a bunch of
media censorship, which is also interesting.
This sort of this this Internet push to shut down conversations.
It it it's showing how scared they are because they just have
such a weak candidate in front. Here's Walls nodding and lying
on network television. Congressman Tim Waltz, also a
member of the Armed Services Committee and Veterans Affairs,
Democrat of Minnesota, highest ranking enlisted soldier ever to
serve in Congress, enlisted in the Army National Guard at 17
and retired 24 years later as command Sergeant major and
served with his battalion and operating Enduring Freedom in
Afghanistan. And I read that because I want
to preface our discussion with your military careers because
you two are trying to stop President Obama from drawing
down, OK. She read that because she wanted
to give him the credibility. But he nodded along about how he
had served in Afghanistan. And we know that's not true.
He also apparently didn't know whether Bagram was in Iraq or
Afghanistan and released a statement when he was a
congressman indicating kind of kind of alluding that he was a
service member and that he was at Bagram Air Force Base in
Iraq, which is going to prickle some of you guys exactly the way
that it's supposed to. The guy's just making stuff up.
He's been trading on a military career in a way that's not fair.
And then that highest ranking bit, the highest ranking
enlisted soldier, so he served in a, in an acting role, which
is what we would call that in the federal service.
But I know there's another name for it in the Army and I just, I
didn't serve in the Army. There is a name when you fill a
billet, but you don't actually hold that rank.
At least you didn't get to hold on to the rank, and he didn't
get to hold on to the rank of command Sergeant major.
He didn't retire with the rank of command Sergeant major, which
is a really big deal. And he put it on his challenge
coin for the House of Representatives First District.
He would hand these things out to people.
And there is Brie Dial who does some work for Daily Wire and is
a correspondent overseas. And she's also a veteran honing
in on misprinting, quote UN quote, miss speaking and all
this other nonsense about the rank of command Sergeant major.
He even puts it in his bio on Twitter that you have it,
command Sergeant major. Look, if you retire as a master
Sergeant, there is no slouch in that.
That's not a slouch move. And nobody would take that away
if you said I did the work and I'm proud of my service.
And I was never called upon to go somewhere.
In my case, I was never called to go overseas even though I
tried. I really did.
That was all I wanted to do. Sometimes that's not the way it
works out. So be it.
Especially in one enlistment in 24 years.
That makes you a piece of garbage.
You're claiming things that are not true.
Now everyone keeps using the word stolen valor.
There is a legal definition of that because there is a statute
that you can define. It's usually claiming awards
that you did not earn or wearing them and presenting yourself as
that. But this is certainly false
information and what we know in a biblical sense and what we
know as people who look out into the world.
When you find people that will lie to you over small things,
they will lie to you over big things.
It's one of my funniest gripes, but I saw it right away when I
worked for the FBI. They lie about their birthday,
people, men. Imagine going on a date with a
woman and she lies about her age.
It's like, why? Why would you lie about
something that is so, one, easily provable and you're
obviously going to flip up at some point?
And two, what are you? What are you benefiting from
that lie? Like it doesn't change the way
you look. It doesn't change the way that
you act. It doesn't change the
experiences that you've had is if you're being honest.
So your age is sort of irrelevant.
Once once you especially once you've agreed to go on a date
with somebody. Like the whole point is that you
present yourself, here's what I am.
And he's trying to go on a date with America.
Tim Waltz is trying to go on the date with America to be our vice
president. That's what he's trying to do.
Call it what you want. And he's leading off with lies.
For me, that's a no go. It's real easy.
My wife is one of the most. She's a terrible liar.
She's one of the most honest people I know.
It's great. We should all aspire to do that.
Tim Walz has a real hard time with it.
He's a teacher, sure. A football coach, sure.
Command Sergeant major. It should say master Sergeant
retired. And we would all go, yeah,
absolutely. Again, here's those challenge
coins. These are one of them in the
wild and one of them from a different picture here.
It's not debatable what it shows.
Those stripes are very definitive.
Anybody who's seen 3 chevrons on the top, three stripes on the
three rockers on the bottom, that's an E9.
And you're making a claim and you're making a claim by putting
it. You've minted your miss your,
your, your false statement. That's your trouble people.
All right. And that's part of why I don't
believe a lot of this stuff about fundraising I want to talk
about in one second here. But let's first.
Let's first go over and talk about my buddy, my Michael
Andella, My Pillow. I don't know if we're buddies.
Are we buddies? I read his stuff today.
I looked into it for you all. It's mypillow.com/kyle.
If you guys want to go to the website where they're offering
the deal right now is $25.00. That seems to be the number you
can save up to 50% off even more using promo code Kyle on a whole
bunch of stuff. They've got a $25 dish towel
thing. They got a $25 My Pillow.
They've got the My Pillow two point O doing a buy one get one.
They've got employee pricing for 20 bucks on the regular My
Pillow with the Giza covering, I don't remember.
I think the Giza is like the soft stuff that's probably not
my jam. They've also got slippers like
the slide on shoes and the they have them for anywhere from 9:50
to $25. For some reason the number $25
pops up a bunch of times because when a sports program and you
guys are looking at shopping there anyway, use our promo code
instead of anyone else's and we appreciate it.
And again, it's mypillow.com/kyle.
Let's do let's do this fundraising.
That's the thing. We're hearing this astroturf
garbage. I talked to you about the polls.
I don't believe the polls for Kamala Harris.
She didn't get the bump that you would expect.
She's not like destroying Donald Trump.
She's just like marginally in in league.
She's gone from like a losing position with Biden to being in
like a 5050. And I think it's I think it's
Astroturf. I think it's saccharine.
It's fake sweet. It's not real.
And the minute that you have the real thing, people are going to
get away from it. Kamala Harris apparently raised
$310 million in July. Campaign shake up, energizes
donors. People are given money.
Are they though? Because we're hearing about
fraud. This was in August 2nd.
This is like the black ladies for Harrahs and the white ladies
for Harrahs and the white dudes for Harrahs and all those other
gross stuff. This story to me is very
illuminating and I wanted to cover down on this because this
is a small paper, the Tennessee Star.
These are the people we we covered.
Why they pop up in my feed, no idea, but they do good work, it
looks like. And they're actually got that.
This is Peter Ambroska. Ambroska doing the reporting as
of yesterday talking about how they have identified 7 people in
Tennessee, which is not a high population state comparatively
that have reported donating more than 1000 times.
I'm going to say it again, there are seven people in that state
who have Democrat who have donated to Act Blue, which is
the Democrat major fundraising platform more than 1000 times.
Margaret Mayer. This is one that they went.
So what you do is you find out a data set.
I did this as well at the FBI. So you'd find a data set of
suspicious activities. Then you hone in on one of them
and you find out the specifics and then you can go back and
look at the other ones. But you look to say, is this
even probable? Is it possible that someone
donated 1000 times to Act Blue? She's a 68 year old woman who
lists her employment as not employed.
She filed, they had to file these documents with the FEC.
That's the Federal Election Commission and the Democrat
nonprofit says that she's given almost $33,000 as an unemployed
woman through a total of 4200 individual donations over a
period of 20 months. You want to know what fraud
looks like? It looks like this.
I will be very comfortable saying it's highly probable that
this is fraudulent. Again, when you have these
number of facts coming at you, you have to believe it.
The majority of the transactions donating are between 2:00 and
5:00 dollars. I remember this movie, it was
called Office Space. Do you remember They were going
to steal the fractional things that normally get rounded off at
the end of the decimal point. They they missed it and so they
ended up like grabbing like a couple of $1,000,000 in a short
period of time. Then they had to figure out how
to give it back because it was a scam because they were multiple
transactions happening every single day, stealing like tiny
little pieces of a penny. Oops.
Majority of the transactions are between 2:00 and 5:00 dollars.
Some of them are for specific groups.
Sorry. Democratic senatorial campaigns
to stop trunk super PAC, retired Americans pack, the National
Democratic Training Committee, blah blah blah blah blah that
happened. They don't know if it's with her
knowledge they're trying to reach her, but she doesn't have
a phone that's connected. Probably because she doesn't
have any money you might eat. I'd be interested to see.
They said over 589 days since January 1st of 2023 there were
individual 4200 individual donations averaging 7.1
donations per day. This is what a Patsy would look
like. This is how you seed money into
a campaign in a fake way. And this is a real problem.
The total amounts were $32,979, which was an average of $56 in
donations per day, meaning 7.1 transactions of roughly about $8
on an average transaction. These donors have been referred
to as ghost donors, I think accurately.
So this is a really wild story. This should be national news.
OK, so when you look at it $33,000, I looked to get that
$310 million, you're talking about roughly 9000 donors giving
in the 30,000, the $30,000 mark 9000 across this entire country.
You need 9000 victims of fraud whose identity you can steal.
And here's the thing, we always thought that the idea of you
taking somebody's identity, they would basically turn around and
use it for profit. Who knew that you could use it
to money launder to a political campaign?
And this seems like what's going on right here.
I'm saying seems like because we've seen one little example in
one state with like seven or eight people, but that's a ton
of money if they're doing $30,000 at a time.
This was referred to as smurfing.
As you guys pointed out in the chat.
Yes, that's the small donations that are going to be out there
and creating this crowd swell and it looks like real
donations. I don't think it's a real thing
and I don't think the excitement about Kamala Harris is real,
which is why you got to go to censorship.
There's no other way around it. You must censor if that's the
alternative. Are you ready?
There was a conversation last night that was between Elon Musk
and Donald Trump and a complete disclosure to you.
I didn't listen to it. I'm seriously not interested.
I know roughly what Elon Musk thinks about a lot of things.
I definitely know what Donald Trump says about things.
I don't need to listen to the two of them.
I made a joke to one of my friends that if they took that
recording, they could play it at Sears School to try to break
people's will because it doesn't sound interesting to me at all.
But the people who love Donald Trump thought it was brilliant,
thought it was amazing, the best thing ever.
The people that hate Donald Trump thought it was the worst.
I think it was neutral. I just doesn't move the needle
for me at all. And also the space kept like
glitching because they're trying to overcome what's called a DDSA
denial of service attack DDoS rather.
So people were trying to get in, and then it sounds like there
was a hack attempt to try to stop it.
The media melted down about this.
Obviously, that's the title of what this this episode was
about. So let's play This is before it
happened. This is an Axios media
correspondent giving you her expert opinion on how bad it's
going to be. And then I'm going to get to the
really scary stuff, which looks a lot more like what Britain
does, which looks a lot more like what fascism looks like.
Out of this conversation that we're going to see tonight on
Twitter. Well, for one, I think it's
going to be a very light hearted conversation because Elon Musk
has come out and endorsed Donald Trump.
I expect this to be like a bromance type of an interview
where they're supporting each other.
I think that Elon Musk will let Donald Trump speak all the
falsehoods and misinformation that he wants.
I mean, he's not a journalist. It's not his job necessarily.
Does he want to be fact checking all of the information?
So I think it's just a platform for Donald Trump to come out and
say whatever he wants. But the thing you remember,
Kessie, is like the interview audience here is what Donald
Trump needs. You see JD Vance going on Face
the Nation, right? Sunday shows traditional media
because he needs to get his name out there.
Donald Trump's going the opposite route, right?
He's talking to streamers and podcasters.
He's going on X. He wants to rally up that sort
of fringe online base. That's what Donald Trump is
doing here tonight. Well, he's meanwhile threatening
to sue establishment media like the New York Times, etcetera.
Sarah Fisher for us this morning.
Sarah, thank you. I appreciate.
It he's threatened to sue you guys because you're awful.
You're atrocious liars and you're fascists and you want to
like clamp down on things that you have no right to clamp down
on and you think you should be the police.
Did you notice how she said that?
He's not like a journalist so he doesn't know how to get to the
truth. The, the amount of distrust in
the audience that exists in the mainstream media is so appalling
to me. So congratulations to all of
you, the fringe people here who watch a podcast, who come here
to get information and come to get an opinion that you may or
may not agree with. I know many of you disagree with
many of the things I say and I appreciate that you're here.
It should expand your mind. I read the stuff that you say.
Sometimes it changes mind, sometimes it doesn't.
Your comments mixed bag. That's how it's supposed to be.
We're supposed to try to negotiate and figure out how
close can we approximate the truth and you don't do it by
censoring people and telling them they can't talk.
Donald Trump and Musk talk about the assassination temp and
deportations during a glitchy chat.
That couldn't help it, could they?
A glitchy chat on X. It was a little bit glitchy from
what I heard. People were posting lots of
pictures of it. I did see that part.
This is the AP reporting on it. So about as straight as they can
get. If I had not turned my head, I
wouldn't be talking to you right now as much as I like you, Says
Donald Trump to Elon Musk. Musk is a former Trump critic,
says the Republicans nominee's toughness and demonstrated by
his reaction to the shooting was critical for national security.
Listen, Elon Musk speaks from a different position than any of
us. He's facing down nation States
and lawsuits by like a really powerful and dangerous people.
And he himself is a powerful and dangerous person.
So there you go. Two people with tremendous power
and the one thing that I did notice, and I do agree with
this, is that you couldn't do this with Kamala Harris.
You couldn't do this with Joe Biden.
None of those people could sit and have a multi hour
conversation and and not come off as a complete bumbling
idiot. Now, that doesn't mean that
Trump didn't have some mistakes in there because it sounds like
he did. But I don't believe this person
because they're from USA TODAY and I think they're a bunch of
liars. Trump rambled and slurred his
way through an Elon Musk interview.
It was an unmitigated disaster. Was it?
Did it change anybody's mind? Probably not.
You guys said it was for the independence in the chat.
I don't know if it was for the independence, but I don't know a
lot of independence that are sitting there and going like,
well, Elon Musk says he likes him.
Maybe there are some. Same way that Joe Rogan might
move the needle for some people. The fact the matter is the more
that Donald Trump can expose what a fraud and there is
massive fraud. You need facts and the Tennessee
Star did a really good job with a start there.
Let's talk about real frauds and the fake supporters.
And that's that's the AI crowds and all this other stuff.
There is zero policy being discussed by Kamala Harris and
Tim Walt other than they want to take your guns away and they
want to have abortions. Let them run on.
We want to abort babies and take away your guns and disarm you
and give the government more power.
Def that people like let them run on their bad record and
their stupidity. That's where we should be.
And you know they're scared because this beta who's sitting
in the White House briefing, ask Cream Jean Pierre, how can you
guys censor this? Do you realize how how insane it
is to normalize this thought? The press in theory was the
group that was supposed to hold the powerful to account.
Democracy dies in darkness. What kind of BS is this?
Dude, listen to this from the from the White House press
briefing the other day. Elon Musk is slated to interview
Donald Trump tomorrow. Tonight on, I don't know if the
president's going to do it. Feel free to say if he is or
not, But I, I think that misinformation on Twitter is not
just a campaign issue. It's a, you know, it's a America
issue. What role does the White House
or the president have in sort of stopping that or stopping the
spread of that or sort of inter intervening in that?
Some of that was about campaign misinformation, but you know,
it's a wider thing, right? Yeah, no.
And you've heard us talk about this many times from here about
the responsibilities that social media platforms have when it
comes to misinformation, disinformation.
Don't have anything to read out from here about specific ways
that we're working on it, but we believe that that they have the
responsibility. These are private companies.
So we're also mindful of that too.
But look, it is, I think it, it is incredibly important to to
call that out as you are you're doing.
I just don't have any specifics on on what we have been doing
internally as as it relates to the interviews, not something
that I'm tracking and I'm sure the President's not.
Yeah, we're tracking it. We're tracking it.
We've got the FBI right on it. We're going to make sure that we
don't have a regular election. We're really concerned about
misinformation, the idea that people would have unapproved
thoughts. We're literally in the era of
thought crime right now. And I'm not saying that in a
hyperbolic way. I'm saying that we have federal
government agencies that have said that they are going to
police your thoughts, like SISA, which by the way, Donald Trump
signed into law, he let them start the Cybersecurity
Infrastructure Security Administration.
What the hell? They want to police cognitive
infrastructure. They want to go out there and
use the FBI's authority not to go after people that are
violating and defrauding people of their votes.
No, they want to stop people that are threatening poll
workers and election workers, which is a problem, I guess, if
it's a problem, but I don't know that it is.
I don't know any of you that are doing that.
It's a problem. When the White House says that
we're worried about missing diss and Mal information, we're going
to go after you for it. We're going to try to figure out
how to do it. And reporters, these absolute
freaking pansies are out there saying, we're going to try to
get you to answer a question like, how are you going to stop
Donald Trump from talking to Elon Musk?
How freaking dare you, people? The idea that these people are
somehow like a priesthood, that that that administers the truth
to the unwashed masses. Leftism is a religion.
That guy's an acolyte. This is where it ends up,
people. We, I alluded to this earlier on
yesterday's show. This is something happened over
the weekend. If you have not heard this, this
is the chief of the Metropolitan Police Department threatening
foreigners. Let me just say very clearly to
the any, if we ever have anybody in Britain who listens to this,
feel free to tag me on anything or DM me with it.
If there's something offensive that you need to have posted in
Britain that actually says something true, I'm more than
happy to be a malinformation distributor in Britain.
And I'll tag EU KS government on it.
And if somebody from EU KS government shows up with like
I'm going to show you in a moment at my home, we're going
to need some friends with a backhoe because I'm not, I'm not
interested. And here's the real thing.
That's, that's, that's probably at stake.
The people in the political left love this shit.
They love it. They absolutely adore the
censorship of our enemies. And so I would also agree with
the, the sort of general online consensus that the Harris Walsh
administration would be 100% OK with using the FBI to enforce
foreign things. There are mechanisms for us to
extradite for foreign committed crimes.
And Britain is definitely an ally.
That's on that's on the table today.
I think that kicks me into a high gear.
I think British people or you showing up with a with a warrant
because of a British infraction. I'm willing to go to war over
that for sure. Definitely.
And I'll say that is none. That's not a threat of violence.
That is a promise that I will stand ground on this.
I probably have more guns than the entire Met Police
Department. Anyway, here's this chief
telling people he's going to come after you for your post.
The long arm of the law, the long arm of the effeminate and
limp wristed law in Britain, which is ignoring something
else. I'll show you in a second.
We will throw the false force of the law at people.
And whether you're in this country committing crimes on the
streets or committing crimes from further afield online, we
will come after you talk. To me about that because we have
seen some high profile figures whipping up the hatred.
You talked about it in there with the officers.
In fact, about this being added to by online commentary.
I mean, I'm even thinking of the likes of Elon Musk getting
involved. What are you considering when it
comes to dealing with people who are whipping up this kind of
behaviour from behind a keyboard?
Maybe in a different country. Being a keyboard warrior does
not make you safe from the law. You can be guilty of offences of
of incitement, of stirring up racial hatred.
There are numerous terrorist offences regarding the sort of
publishing of material. All of those offences are in
play if people are provoking hatred and violence on the
streets and we will come after those individuals just as we
will physically confront on the streets the thugs and the OPS
who are taking who are causing the problems for communities.
Met Chief keyboard warriors are not safe from the law.
Allow me to to make this offer like most of you that are in the
the live chat that I'm seeing right now.
If he wants to see someone transition, since they seem to
love that a lot too, they're all in on the agendas and that guy
was awfully effeminate looking. If they want to see someone
transition, I will transition from keyboard warrior to warrior
IRL in real life. Like bring that shit on dude.
Wow it's so incredible to see it.
Here's an example. They're not.
They're not kidding about this, by the way, the thought crime is
real in the UK. This is a woman that we've
talked about before. I can't remember her name, but
I'm going to play her, her little clip here.
It's two minutes as longer than I normally would play and I know
we're about to hit the one hour mark, but listen to me.
This thing is insane. Allow me to set it up for those
who are listening only. There is a police officer, also
a feminine looking. He's standing there with a sort
of like weak facial hair. He has a clipboard and a high
visibility vest and all of the body Cam and apparatus.
He doesn't appear to be armed because they don't arm most of
their their police and he's interviewing a woman in a trap
gotcha questionnaire style way in order to get her in order to
cite her or arrest her for silently praying outside of an
abortion clinic. That's the crime.
She's already been acquitted of this twice.
She's been arrested, hauled in front of a court and acquitted 2
times which she will reckon she will also tell the police
officer and they still are not done with this.
We're we're building up to a pretty good, maybe therapeutic
and cathartic palate cleanse for you guys.
But let me just play this because it is really, this is
where we're heading in this country as well.
And we're already seeing it because they've gone after
people for singing and doing hymns.
That's why my association with Catholic vote will be
unfaltering. Enjoy this or not are.
You protesting? No.
Are you here to pray for the lives of unborn children?
As I've mentioned to one of your colleagues before, I think
that's a little bit of a leading question.
No, I'm not actually today. Can your actions be carried out
elsewhere? I'm, I'm not doing any actions.
I'm I'm just simply thinking silently in my head, OK.
And why have you chosen this location for Sam?
This is an abortion centre. I'm praying for those who've
been hurt by abortion so. When I said before, are you here
to pray for the life of. Yes, I said no.
I'm praying for those who've been hurt by abortion.
Hurt. By abortion.
Yes, that's right. Are you aware there's a Public
Space Protection Order in pace here?
Yes. I don't know if you know, but I
have actually been arrested twice.
I've gone to court and been acquitted for allegedly my
silent prayers. I've actually received an e-mail
from the police telling me I'm allowed to be in this area.
I don't know if you're familiar with that situation at all.
So yes, that's right. That's why I was arrested
previously. So yes, I'm very much aware
there's a PSPO in place. OK.
And are you aware that you're breaching the public order
protection order in? Place.
I'm not breaching it, no. Will you move from here to
outside of the exclusion zone? I don't see any reason why I
would need to do that for the reasons I've just explained to
you, OK? So if not, why are you not
willing to move outside of exclusion zone?
Because of what I've just said, because I don't think I need to
move outside the exclusion zone. I've been to court over this,
OK? OK, So what we're going to do,
we're going to issue ethics penalty notice now.
So what am I being issued a fixed penalty notice for?
Because I believe, I'm not going to believe that you're here to
protest. I've just told you I'm not
protesting. I'm simply silently praying.
He tried to jam her up over and over again.
And he can't do it because, Juan, he's not that bright.
But the real key is that he's a good German.
He's going to get to the result that he wants, which is I'm
going to issue a citation and or you're going to be arrested,
depending on how you answer these questions.
And he, he doesn't seem to have his heart in it, does he?
And he's doing it anyway. This is the danger.
This is the danger in this country right now.
It continues to be the biggest danger.
Good people who do nothing. As I stated in the first
interview that I did, now public with James O'Keefe in May of
2022, I don't have a problem with people who think they're
doing the right thing, that are believers in the 'cause I will
disagree with them, but I appreciate that they are doing
the thing that they hold true. What I have a problem is with
what I assume that guy is. And I'm going to speculate a
bit. I have a problem with people who
are going along because of their paycheck, because of their
pension, because they are interested in doing the thing
that keeps them comfortable and not what is right.
Despite an oath and a requirement, a responsibility to
the public. When you forsake your duty to do
the right thing because it's convenient for you, you're
worse. You're worse than the people who
point you like a gun. You are the weapon and you have
a choice. And you've surrendered your
agency to evil. So screw you, seriously.
Let's talk about actual evil as we kind of wrap up here.
Here's a little bit of actual evil.
Remember Fauci? Remember that guy?
Apparently he's still out there. Apparently he's still alive.
The CDC recommends that you get more vaccines, by the way, for
the cold and flu season coming up.
My mom's in the chat right now, and I think she has a light case
of the COVID as well. Listen, apparently if you want
to be in compliance, you should be getting as many as 9 total
boosters. It's interesting to hear Fauci
say that. That is not the case for Doctor
Anthony Fauci, the purveyor of the shots.
But he still gets infected. He's been infected with COVID
more than me, as far as I can tell.
So someone tell me the benefit. I guarantee you I run into more
people. I've been to weirder stuff.
Maybe because it's all made-up? I got infected about two weeks
ago. It was my third infection and I
have been vaccinated and boosted a total of 6 times.
I got infected about two weeks ago.
It was my third infection and I have been vaccinated and boosted
a total of 6 times. How am I not dead yet?
I have none of those shots and it didn't protect me even a
little bit. Oh, and I've been infected less
times. I don't know, maybe because it
has nothing to do with that. Should we still be wearing
masks? Fauci says yes.
Let's make sure you guys are wearing your masks out there.
This could be a real interesting line of campaigning.
Unfortunately, Donald Trump has hitched himself to the Operation
War speed. He should have turned on that
probably a year and a half ago or two years ago.
That would have been smart, especially when those mandates
came out. Meanwhile, we're saddled with
this sort of guy who straddles both of the political camps, at
least when it comes to the record, and it's not good.
No, I yeah, The message is that if you are in a risk category,
that you have got to take this seriously.
You don't have to, you know, immobilize what you do and just
cut yourself off from society. But regardless of what the
current recommendations are, when you're in a crowded, closed
space and you're an 85 year old person with chronic lung disease
or a 55 year old person who's morbidly obese with diabetes and
hypertension, then you should be wearing a mask.
When you're in closed indoor spaces, Certainly when you get
out on an airplane, you should do that.
And you should be careful to avoid crowded places where you
don't know the status of other people.
Just. Drop a Frocha Gini.
Did they really put that on there?
Oh, I put that on there. That's my bad.
Listen, trust in doctors and hospitals plunging during COVID,
but it's been dropping for decades.
Why? Because these people lie to you.
Basically whatever Anthony Fauci says, I don't believe I'm not
going to be part of it. The Froci Gina is Fauci Froci
Gina? Yeah, none of it.
You're full of it, dude. I'm not going to wear a mask on
an airplane. I see the people that do that,
and they're they're retarded. You can see them make better
choices with your health if you're fat and unhealthy, like,
that's the problem. Yeah, fix that, Work on it.
It's going to take a while. So be it.
This, this absolutely absurd position that these people have
staked out. It basically cannot be
forgotten. And the other thing that I
realized too, because I remember my wife and I were talking about
going somewhere. Where was it?
We were going to go to some restaurant.
And I don't remember what it was, but we ended up, oh, I know
it was a Ruby Tuesday. I don't know why that was a,
that was a thing. We were somewhere and that was
the, that was the option. We could feed our kids at a Ruby
Tuesday. And I remembered when I went to
Albuquerque in 2021, I got lambasted because I wouldn't put
on a mask. And I just basically like stared
them down as I took my 2 year old and my 3 year old daughter
like operating as a Geo bachelor with two children and a dog in
the car 'cause we had to, had to pull into a hotel for the night.
And I went and I fed my kids at this place and they were like,
give me a hassle about wearing a mask or not.
And it's like, I'm not going to do it.
I'm going to walk to the damn table and you can serve me or
not. If you want my money, great.
If you don't like get the F out of here, I'm not going to put a
mask on my face to walk 34 feet. And then I remember we drove 45
minutes to a Thai place that was in the middle of the desert in
the middle of nowhere near Las Cruces specifically because what
we wanted to do was patronize that like that, that little
company so that it stayed in business.
And when we got there, it was a nine foot walk.
I could have spit and hit the table and they were like, if you
walk there, we're going to call the police.
And I had two little kids with me and my wife was in the car
with 1/3 and was heading in to go sit down.
We couldn't like I could have jumped and and landed on the
damn table and they freaked out about it.
And the waitress, of course, wearing a mask.
Of course, everybody in the restaurant is not wearing a mask
because they're flipping eating. These idiots were making policy.
You cannot comply with any of this stuff ever, not anymore.
Or you're going to end up like that British cop doing something
that you will one day hopefully regret with everything that you
have. Do not.
There's a reason why the trust in this stuff has fallen.
Catholic Vote is a good article on it.
You guys can check it out. They're talking about a study
that's been published in Gemma and the fact that the COVID-19
basically just accelerated a a decline in trust.
It's gone from 71% basically people trusting in hospitals in
April of 2020 to 40% of people. It's the reason why me and my
wife ended up having a baby at our house with no doctor.
I don't trust them. They've lost their credibility.
Fauci has none either. Yeah, be ungovernable is exactly
right. Our chats got it correct.
You're hitting it. Let me show you something about
being ungovernable. This is going to be our palate
cleanser for the day. Before we do that, let me just
say if you guys want to get a cool shirt looking like this
one, which is a great looking shirt by the way, made by my
friend Garretta Boyle, you can do so by going to our merch
store. It's the dash suspendables.com.
Use a promo code if you want to save a couple bucks 10% off by
using the name Kyle. It's the same one we use every
bear, the Dash suspendables.com. That's the promo code for a
really cool looking TKSSS, the Kyle Seraphin Show shirt.
Yep, they're they're really good looking shirts.
The the back of it kind of reminds me of like either the
godfather or Top Gun as far as the lettering goes.
You guys can find them online. Check them out.
It's a good looking shirt. I wear it places.
Nobody gives me a weird look. Sometimes they give me a look
like, are you the Kyle Seraphin? And that's actually never
happened. So don't worry about that.
It won't happen to you. Check out the merch store.
OK, so let's do let's do man, this is so, so off putting.
Look at this clown, this clown show person.
Why is it up here twice One second, let me get rid of this
extra little thing covering me. I don't need things covering me.
Theory Breton. Breton is in Brussels and looks
kind of like a sort of effeminate.
I've used that word a couple times, but this is like a female
pretending to be a grown up Harry Potter senior citizen.
Harry Potter. I I think that's a man from what
I was able to tell, married to a woman and says with great
audiences comes greater responsibility.
The Digital Safety Act, DSA, there is a risk of amplification
of potentially harmful content in the online space in
connection with major events with major audiences around the
world. And I send this letter to Elon
Musk. Let me read to you some of this
letter and then I'm going to show you what Elon Musk shared
as a highly amusing to me response.
It was a meme coming from Tropic Thunder, which is one of Tom
Cruise's best performances. I'm writing to you in the
context of recent events in the UK and relation to the planned
broadcast of the Platform X of a live conversation between U.S.
presidential president candidate and yourself, which will be
accessible to EU users in the EU in the European Union.
I understand you're doing a stress test for the platform in
this context, I'm compelled to remind you these people of the
due diligence obligations set out in the Digital Services Act
as outlined in my previous letter.
Good send letters you feckless mm hmm.
The individual entity ultimately controlling the platform has
over 300 million users worldwide.
One of a third of which are located in the EU.
It's been designated a very large online platform by our
legal and you have an obligation to ensure compliance with EU
laws and in particular the DSA in the EU.
And this means that ensuring on one hand, freedom of speech.
Here's the real card. But effectively protected and
all proportioned and effective mitigation measures are put in
place regarding the application of harmful content in connection
with relevant events, including live streaming, which if
unaddressed, may risk the high profile of X and generate
detrimental effects on the civic discourse and public security.
Do you remember when Donald Trump existing was a threat
again? It's ongoing.
So I will be bringing you the palate cleanser today.
Elon Musk tweeted out a meme from this scene, which is his
definitely not his response, but I guess it is our response.
Let me, yeah, let me say that that's that's what's coming up
and you want to hear that because it will be therapeutic
for you. Allow me to throw up a 5 star
review and we will do this as we sort of round out today's show
with that. Are you prepared?
Boom, here we go. This is coming from Atwater
2727. Definitely five stars.
I love Kyle's brutally honest take.
It's actually brutal honest take.
I should say that correctly on all topics.
It's got to be my favorite part of the show.
I love that he tells us what we need to hear, not what we want
to hear. And that makes first super easy
to give him five stars. A shame I can only that I can't
give six. Kyle helps me understand what
can be unburdened but what has been.
All right, here's what can be. You can say this to world
leaders that are Komisars and members of the Commission in the
European Commission. This is Elon Musk, definitely
not Elon Musk's response. This is my response, I suppose.
Check yourself if you're at work, turn the volume down.
Put in your ear pods. Don't let this get you fired.
It is very therapeutic, though. Kill him.
This is last Ghostman. Who is this?
This is flaming flock on. OK, flaming dragon fuck face
first. Take a big step back and
literally fuck your own face. Now, I don't know what kind of
and Pacific bullshit power play you're trying to pull here, but
Asia Jack is my territory. So whatever you're thinking, you
better think again. Otherwise I'm going to have to
head down there and I will rain down on a godly fucking
firestorm upon you. You're going to have to call the
fucking United Nations and get a fucking binding resolution to
keep me from fucking destroying you.
I am talking scorched earth, motherfucker.
I will massacre you. I will fuck you up.
Did you ever find out who that was?
He's got to find out who that was.
So here's the deal. You go into thought police and
you start kowtowing to enemies of your nation, then you're
going to end up in a situation like this.
There was a 34 year old woman and an 11 year old girl stabbed
in Leicester Square in London. There's the cops, they're
standing around, they've taped off the area.
They're busy going after abortion protesters who are
silently praying in their head. And instead of going after the
people that are actually causing real problems.
God forbid that Elon Musk and Donald Trump talking caused some
sort of an issue where one of those people gets inflamed and
decides they have no other choice but to stab a girl and
her mom or another, you know, grown lady in a in a busy area.
You can tell that that is a seriously regular place to be.
That is a place of commerce. I've been there.
Unacceptable. That's where the West is headed.
If we keep this crap up in the meantime, I like the attitude of
telling people to go F themselves.
