Why BlackRock Is Buying All the Houses | Jake Shields DSH #1185

Ever and it's being so heavily pushed the gay and trans things that a lot of people and people don't realize there's a lot more young girls are saying they're trans than boys.

So they're going through this uncomfortable period through you know, I don't know a boy I can't relate but I still went through the uncomfortable through puberty but I guess the girls really hit some hard when they you know start developing and stuff and that's when a lot of these girls are switching over they're having a hard time fitting in finding identity

All right guys, Jake Shields is back.

Man, a lot of drama lately.

Yeah, it's been a busy, exciting week.

All kinds of stuff going on.

Jeez, I know you.

Thank you, Big Tuesday.

Yeah.

And I want to start with the Bryce Mitchell stuff because you had all those guys on your show individually, right?

Yeah.

Well, Bryce and Rampage, they're both friends of mine.

And I'm also friends with Bear, the other co-host of Rampage.

So that was,

you know, I got to worry this progress.

I like all those guys a lot, but I saw that

some clips in the interview and I really didn't like it.

It sat really bad with me, you know.

So I first, I think I called up Bryce and I was like, man, that sucks when they talk to you.

Like, why?

And Bryce is a great guy.

Like, you know, though, they're great people.

they treated me with respect i'm like okay that's good you know yeah because bryce is a situation where whether you agree or don't agree with what he said he can't really defend himself right now so it's just not fair to sit there and like berate someone when they're already down but i have tremendous respect for rampage friend of mine had him on my show you know so i texted him i'm not going to share any private conversations but we had a little conversation i think publicly he said you know he doesn't really care what bryce says he had some press he was pressured by someone to treat him like that and bryce needs to understand you know who he might be working for later but rampage great dude.

And then Bear, also a guy I like, but I thought he did a terrible job handling it.

Bear actually called me after I talked to Rampage, kind of freaking out.

And I'm like, Bear, if you want my honest opinion, you look like an absolute fucking, you look terrible.

You look like so fake and authentic.

It's like you might not agree with what Bryce said, but in the scheme of things, you don't really care that much.

If you ran into him a bar, you want to treat him that way.

You'd still go talk to him in person.

So you should have either canceled.

or not braided him like that.

You know, I understand your perspective, you're coming from, you know, and he agreed you know like i said i don't think he's a bad guy so learning experience i goes what you should do is i would immediately you know delete the episode call and apologize to bryce and then apologize publicly yeah so we did delete the episode i'm not sure if he called bryce and i don't think there's no public apology but again you know i think A lot of people are just bashing that guy.

And people need to realize the world is complex.

I think he did a terrible job, but he's not a bad guy.

It's like a learning experience, you know, and he did realize he fucked up.

And same with Rampage.

Same with Bryce, all these guys.

People are giving him shit.

Like Rampage, you know, people need to make money.

They have kids to feed.

And people are calling Bryce a coward for not defending himself.

But it's like he has tremendous respect from Rampage, one of the guys he watches the kid.

So he's in a tricky situation.

You know, he has a new kid he has to feed.

So it's the whole episode was a complete shit show.

It was taken down.

But again, it's three people that weren't bad people.

Just sometimes things turn shitty.

Yeah.

Bryce took down his episode too, right?

That was his first episode that started all.

That was the first episode.

Imagine starting off the first episode of his podcast.

Oh my God, that is so funny.

Like,

you know,

no, and Bryce is just

a good, good dude.

And, like, you know, this whole Hitler thing, yeah, it sounds absurd, but people need to understand where that's coming from.

That's not coming out of nowhere.

You know, in the last 18 months, people have watched, you know, Gaza just be completely bombed, slaughtered.

They've seen Israelis celebrating, laughing at kids with arms blown off.

They do like boat tours that you can go and watch them get bombed at night.

Seriously, there's literally a boat.

You can look this up.

I don't know what you looked up at, but it's just a real thing where they have these boat tours.

Well, not now because it's ended where they'd go out at night and you could watch Gaza being bombed.

And they take their kids and stuff.

And they were charging people to do that.

Yeah, and they'd take their kids.

It was like a family outing and like drinking beers on the boat thing.

Like, yeah, crazy shit.

There was like, did you see like, they got caught, this is a separate subject, but they were.

The IDF was gang raping prisoners in the torture centers and they got caught.

Wow.

So they made some arrests just for a PR thing.

The people there rioted, got the gang rapists out of prison, you know, and then one of the guys went on TV and did like a tour talking about it.

Politicians were defending, raping people.

So they're doing the shit that we were told the Nazis did.

And then we see them lying, like 40 beheaded babies, mass rapes, all debunked, debunked.

So people see that.

And then, you know, Hitler was 80 years ago.

We don't know what's true, what's not true, but it's making people question it.

And these guys are doing what they said they do.

So it's not coming out of a vacuum.

You know, the truth is awesome, complicated.

So it's,

there's a reason why things are changing.

And I'm not sitting there saying Hitler's a good guy at all.

I'm just saying people need to understand where this shit's coming from.

It's not coming out of thin air.

And then a few days after Bryce's incident, Kanye just popped off about it.

I mean, that was so nuts.

That was,

Kanye is an artist, people need to realize, you know, and I think this was a well-calculated, thought-out, like performance art.

I don't think this was him going insane.

This is,

you know, exactly what he's doing.

He came out of nowhere right before the Super Bowl, just tweet after tweet after tweet after tweet, puts a commercial on the Super Bowl, I think what, what, $5 million on an iPhone, terrible commercial, easy.com, strips the sword down and puts swastika shirts.

Absolutely insane, you know?

But this is, you know, not random.

This is thought out, planned, calculated.

He knows how to just take the tension, suck it up all for himself.

And he also, most importantly, knows when to walk away.

Because if he stayed here, people would get sick of him.

Look two years ago when he popped out, went on his thing.

It was the same thing.

This, this, this.

Pushing, you know, maybe a little too extreme, but he's pushing some real issues.

And he's coming from an emotional standpoint.

He doesn't know all the points, but he feels he's an artist.

So he's been screwed over by multiple, you know, Jewish people in the record industry.

And he doesn't say he hates all Jewish people.

He's just pointing out who did it.

And, you know, of course, I'm not going to say the swastika things I agree with, but it's pushing the Overton window.

It's pushing what the boundaries of acceptable are.

It's making these, it's making people open up and have these conversations of maybe the...

Maybe the story of World War II is not exactly how we told it was.

That doesn't mean guys are good.

Maybe it's a little more of a, from a young age, it was taught black, this is the most evil person ever.

This is, you know, this was good versus evil.

And the truth of the matter is maybe a little more gray area mixed in there.

Well, overall, philosophy-wise, I don't believe in good and evil.

I don't believe it's just good and evil.

I think everyone has both.

Yeah, no, it's true.

Some people definitely lean a lot more towards the evil and towards the better.

So I'm not going to say all people are equal with their good and evil, but I think even evil people can do great things.

You know,

whether Hitler was or wasn't evil, one thing about him, he was a huge animal lover.

He was a vegetarian.

He was the first person, first country of the world to push massive animal rights things.

So he's obviously have some good aspects about him.

So even most bad people can have good aspects.

I didn't know he was a vegetarian.

Yeah, huge animal rights advocate and everything.

He was trying to push vegetarianism.

So it starts, people get blurred with what's true versus what's lies and propaganda.

There's the famous saying, winners write history.

And he was written to be the most evil person that ever lived.

And people are just starting to question Like we have like Mao and Stalin, both communists, you know, allegedly Mao killed 50 million, Stalin 20 million.

It's it's people can like praise these people and not get ostracized from society.

But if you say anything about Hitler, you're ostracized.

So like people start to be like, well, why can I praise this guy, but not that guy?

And I don't think anyone should praise Mao or Stalin, but I'm not going to like sit there and lecture someone who does.

You know, I had a guy on my show, a communist, who was like pro-Stalin.

I disagreed with him, think he's probably wrong.

But in his mind, he doesn't believe Stalin did those atrocities.

So I'm not going to sit there and berate him, call him a bad person for what he believes.

And we should be able to have these conversations.

People should be able to challenge and be like, maybe Stalin, maybe some of it was exaggerated.

Maybe some of Mao's was exaggerated.

Now, I'm not making the argument it was, but we don't really know the truth about history.

And

you can debate every other genocide except one.

And that's just what people I think are getting fed up with.

I could see that.

Did you see Shopify took down Kanye's store yesterday?

Yeah, disappointing, you know, because it's like free speech.

You know, I know that's the extreme end, but we people still decide what shirts they wear, including like you got to let go of the past at some point, you know, that that swaska sign originally was like, I think a Navajo sign.

It's still used, I think, a Buddhist sign as well.

Like if you go in Asia, you'll see it all over the place.

So you have to let go.

And also like the whole lifting your arm a certain way means you're Nazi.

It's like, come on.

They did that with Elon.

Yeah, it's like you got to realize, you know, this 80 years ago is you can't say you can't lift your arm a certain way.

You can't have this sign.

It's just time to like let go of the past.

People don't hold, there's no other dictators that they hold their signs forever.

And it just shows you the same people run Hollywood, the media, they came in with this barrage and just pushed this.

It's the one thing you can't question.

And I think it's that people are just fed up.

And I think it's the boomers versus the zoomers.

A lot of these people, they haven't caught up realizing we're not living in the same world.

A lot's changed in 18 months.

You know, Israel has really shocked the world with their brutality.

And a lot of young people are seeing it on Twitter, Instagram,

TikTok, these things.

So they're seeing that these necessarily aren't the good guys.

But it's tricky because you don't want to lump into Jews are the bad guys either because it's a whole group.

So these are like hard, tricky, complex, you know, topics and discussions to have, but they need to be had.

Absolutely.

You confident in Trump that'll put an end to that war?

No.

Really?

Not really.

I think he's...

He took $100 million from Miriam Alverson, which is, she was an ex-IDF soldier, you know, Israeli citizen, gave him $100 million.

I don't know how this is legal, but plus tons of money from APAC.

I think he's definitely,

you know, Netanyahu seems to have a lot of power over him.

So he came to the White House.

Trump went and pulled out Netanyahu's chair for him, gave him the key to the White House.

Netanyahu gave him a pager in return, which to me kind of seemed like a sign of, we'll kill you if you get out of line.

Damn.

That's how I would take him.

You know, an Israeli person handed me a pager.

What?

After the attacks they did.

And so, you know, Trump was literally pulling his chair out.

Like, I don't know.

I don't pull out chairs for other men unless it's like a grandpa or some other person I have a ton of respect for.

And I think the fact that he was pulling ass chair, pushing it in for him, shows, I don't know what's going on with that, which is unfortunate because I like Trump, you know.

I wonder if he does that with other presidents and other leaders.

Good question.

I don't think he does, but that's actually a great question.

Someone should go back and yeah, we'd have to find out because maybe it's just like a polite thing to do.

He has because I think people would have came up with a video showing it because he got mocked heavily on Twitter for it.

But I can't say with absolute 100% certainty that he never has.

Did you see Aiden Ross ask Vivek about APOC when Vivek came on his stream?

I did.

I can't remember exactly what he said.

I saw the clip real quick.

He gave a political answer, you know.

Yeah, no, APAC's a huge problem.

It's not just APAC, but Israel is the only foreign lobby that doesn't have to register a foreign lobby, which is weird because it's literally a law about it.

You know, JFK was actually trying to change this right when he got shot.

The head of the IDF happened to be in Dallas right then, you know.

So that, you know, APAC is a huge problem.

Foreign countries manipulating our democracy and they donate to both sides, the Democrats and the Republicans.

It was like, whoever, it doesn't really matter who wins, we're giving billions of dollars to Israel every year and they give us nothing in return, not a single thing.

They're our top spy threat.

They've attacked our ships and killed our military.

They've,

you know, they've staged false flag operations, the Levant Fair people look up.

It's like, they don't offer anything in return.

It's like an all one-way relationship.

Do you think that will change?

Because Elon announced recently he's going to start investigating politicians that have deep pockets.

Did you see that?

Yeah, I don't think it's going to change under trump and elon really yeah because elon initially he said some negative a few negative israeli things about them slaughtering kids and then something happened where he kind of went out he apologized he flew to israel got walked around and berated by uh benjamin netyahu then he flew to oshowitz got a walking tour really with um ben shapiro wow so i don't think he believes it but something happened to make him uh suck up to these people some probably some big government contract you know that's crazy that's weird though because someone like that you think can't be bought off because he's got so much money yeah it could be that i mean it could be blackmail too israel runs massive blackmail operations jerry epstein was an israeli blackmail that was tied back to israel yeah every aspect of that ties directly back to israel holy crap i didn't know that

i knew because the media doesn't cover it wow yeah so they'll say oh it was a it was a blackmail operation but they never say for who you ever every step of it leads do you think diddy had a potential tie there too i think

what sounds crazy most likely you look at his um producer i think was it I'm to make sure I'm not mixed, I think Clive Davis is his because they're all the producers of the hip-hop are all big Jewish moguls.

And this way it gets tricky.

It's not all Jewish people.

It's a very small group of like the elites that are manipulating things.

Yeah.

It becomes tricky conversations.

So it's like, okay, but all the, all the record, all the hip-hop industry is pretty much all Jews running it.

They're the ones that push the gangster hip-hop, NWA, bringing the N-word back to popular,

pushing black people to kill each other, making it cool.

Yeah.

I just saw you talk about this.

You had the black nationalist on your show.

He was extremely interesting.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You two got along, though.

Yeah, you know, like he always respects me.

I don't care if he likes white people.

You know, he doesn't have to like white people if he treats me with respect.

That's the thing.

You don't, I don't have to agree with people on things.

If he treats me with respect, you know, like I don't care if he dislikes white people, he treated me good and he had lots of

interesting, I'm open-minded to listen.

So like I'm hearing sides of the black side of things and black history and he had so many, so many great insights.

Yeah.

willing to talk to people with different opinions as long as they're polite and willing to have like a real conversation not like a slimy like weasly like destiny that's just gonna

it's not sharing their real opinions yeah destiny's been going through some stuff man he's some bad stuff he's accused of all like wiretapping his place jeez like with girls who you have him like wiretapped and filming their conversations what i think sharing naked pictures of girls that he'd had like sending to other people and like yeah he has some serious allegations damn that's not not good.

He always gets canceled and bounces back.

He's one of those guys you can't really cancel.

Yeah, but he's, I could just feel the energy.

The dude was a slime ball just being around him.

I was going to go on his show, and I'm glad I decided not to.

I'm like, you know what?

This guy is giving me creepy energy.

I'm going to fuck with him.

Then I, I sent him to the Hodge twins, and I feel bad about that.

And they got good numbers, but like, yeah, that was our worst.

I mean, you can't deny that.

He gets numbers.

Yeah, but they're like, it was a terrible interview.

He was really so slimy, not being honest.

Damn.

I just like having honest conversations.

I should probably start debating more and stuff, but it's like, you're not being real.

You're trying to like win a conversation.

You're trying to win an argument at all means.

You're not trying to find the truth.

I like talking to people, trying to find the truth.

Like talking to, like I said, I'll talk to a communist, you know, I disagree with it.

I'll talk to a Nazi, you know, I disagree with it.

Yeah.

I just think I've had like a white nationalist on and people start yelling Nazi.

I just had a black nationalist on.

It's literally the exact opposite.

Clearly, I'm not a black nationalist.

I just kind of enjoy.

talking to extreme personalities, trying to understand them, hear their perspectives.

There's ways to debate intellectually.

I think on Pierce Morgan, it's just for show yeah there's not really much productivity on that yeah because you're not like actually trying to understand each other no you're trying to go at each other yeah you're just trying to win by all means and you only have like 20 seconds to talk yeah that's really tough because there's like five people on it yeah at least if i'm gonna do a debate or at least need like an hour so you can try to like really understand each other yeah um does the new executive order trump signed around anti-semitism scare you at all It's really concerning, yeah, because like we have a free speech to criticize everyone equally.

And then anti-Semitism, it has no clear definition.

It's just, it's not hating Jews.

That's not the definition of anti-Semitism.

The definition is being critical of Israel.

It's talking about Jewish control, like me pointing out that all the record labels are mostly, you know, Jewish, the Hollywood, the media companies, pointing this out is considered anti-Semitic, even though it's true.

Yeah.

You know, saying Israel controls America, you know, like saying bad things about Israel is considered anti-Semitic.

So when they can pass an executive order saying you can't criticize a certain group or country, that's insane.

Yeah.

I think you should be able to speak facts.

You know what I mean?

If you're giving data and numbers.

no exactly but then it could even include that i think you should even be able to say hateful things that's the first amendment like i don't have to you know people don't have to like white people someone should be able to say i don't like white people white people are white they do say this all the time white supremacy white cause causes this and they should be able to even i don't agree with it you know people are racist against black people which i don't agree with but they it's in our constitution yeah they're taking this one group and saying you can't criticize this group and it goes beyond that because there's no it's not even saying you can't dislike this group saying you're their whole country we're talking about their control and that kind of proves the point of they have separate rules.

They have like,

I don't know the exact number, I think about 30 states.

You can't boy, if you're working in government, you're not legally allowed to boycott Israel or Israeli goods.

Whoa.

There's no other country that has this.

You can boycott America, other states, but you have to sign this petition and work for the government that you can't boycott Israel.

Why?

Like, how is this?

beneficial to America.

That's interesting.

Yeah.

We give them all these weapons.

Trump's talking about ethnically cleansing Palestine to give to

Israel.

That's insane.

Like imagine if Trump was talking about ethnically cleansing Mexico.

Like everyone be like what the fuck you're talking about.

It's just nuts because Kanye went hard and that was after the order was signed.

So I wonder if he's going to be the first one they go after.

It's going to be very tricky to uphold because the First Amendment, that's what's great about America.

The Supreme Court has to go along with it.

And I'd be shocked if they do because it's very clear we have the right to criticize even hateful speech.

But criticizing Israel isn't hateful.

I think it's hateful than bombing children.

That's a good point.

You still got to get through a lot of hurdles, right?

Yeah, I mean, things are complicated in America.

Good and a bad thing.

There's the huge, you know, the checks and balances, the Congress, the president, Supreme Court.

So you can't, president can't come in and just totally change things.

Yeah.

I think it might have passed Congress, though, which is kind of.

Oh, it did?

Wow.

Who would be really fast?

They moved fast for Israel.

The first thing when the Johnson was put in charge was the House, the first thing he did was go and pass money to give money to Israel.

Wow.

Mike Johnson?

Yeah.

Damn, that guy gets a ton of hate.

I can't believe he's still around.

He deserves the hate.

Yeah, he's terrible.

He was getting hate when we were at Amfest.

I think he signed something.

I forget what happened, but he didn't even show face at that event.

Yeah, he's clearly just like a weasel, you know?

Yeah.

It makes you wonder how many of these guys are paid off in Congress.

A lot.

You think it's a lot?

A lot.

And a lot by Israel, but there's other factors too.

There's pharmaceutical companies.

Yeah.

Bernie Sanders.

Yep.

Yeah, that's crazy.

Pharmaceutical.

That's wild that he's like one of the biggest.

Yeah, super ironic.

He does this and they give him like, I think it was the highest.

Him and Elizabeth Warren, I think were the two highest paid people.

So hypocritical.

And they were calling out RFK for trying to like make everyone healthy.

No, and RFK is great for America.

Again, I don't like his stance in Israel, but he's great for the medicine.

And again, I'm not anti-pharmaceuticals, but we way over-prescribe them.

And lots of times they can be damaging.

It's all about making money.

But the healthcare system should be about finding the root of the cause.

Instead, they just want to give you pharmaceuticals and keep you a customer for life because you make way more money.

Exactly.

I'm sure you got offered painkillers when you were fighting.

Oh, yeah, painkillers, doctor surgeries.

I've had zero surgeries, but every time I go to doctor, they try to give me a surgery.

That's rare for a fighter not to have any, right?

Because they don't listen.

Yeah, it is.

Cause they don't listen to the doctors, you know.

Jeez.

You probably have your nasty injuries, I'd imagine.

Yeah, it completely torn my ACL, which you're not supposed to be able to recover without a surgery, and I'm fine.

Damn.

So three doctors told me no way you could recover.

It was a bad injury.

It took me like six months of rehabbing it, but the rehab from the surgery was a nine-month recovery.

So it's like.

So it's actually more, it takes longer to recover if you get the surgery, basically?

Yeah, and it's tricky because I'm not going to say all surgeries are bad, but I think, you know, probably 70, 80% 80%

do more harm.

When they cut, open you up and cut inside of you, you're fucking yourself up a lot of times.

Yeah.

Damages, yeah.

Well, look at people that have like knee surgeries.

They often get them again.

It's rare that someone has one surgery.

Same with back.

You know, like all these surgeries, yeah, back, shoulder, people get three and four surgeries.

So clearly the surgery is not fixing the problem.

Most cases, there's exceptions.

Yeah, you've always been pretty holistic.

I know you're vegetarian, right?

Yeah.

Vegetarian, yeah.

Been a lifelong vegetarian, you know, for multiple reasons.

Feel healthy this way, but also like animals a lot.

I think

factory farming is like disgusting.

Disgusting.

I'm not a fan of slaughterhouses.

Most slaughterhouses.

People turned a blind eye to it because they don't want to see what's going on.

It's like, I don't prefer hunting, but that's so much more humane and stuff.

They need to pass some laws where they can have the cows a little more free range.

They're just like stuffed in together.

The pigs are stuffed in where they can't move.

They take them at birth.

The slaughter methods, it needs some improvement, but it's an uncomfortable conversation.

Most people agree that it's, you know, unless you have no empathy towards animals, your degree is disgusting, but they just don't want to talk about it.

Because they're not exposed to it, I think.

And if you try to like expose it on media, they'll censor it.

Yeah, I think it's actually a felony if you work those places and you film inside the

yeah, I had a guest do that and she's on angle monitor everything.

Wow.

I was able to talk to that person afterwards.

I'll get the information.

Yeah.

I think she might even be in jail now, honestly.

Wow.

She went to Purdue, I believe, the chicken one.

Yeah, I don't know anything about that story, but you're not.

I know it's super illegal if you work these places to film what they're doing to the animals.

She didn't even work there.

She was trespassing, but she got some videos and yeah yeah construed they don't want people to see what's going on there that just shows you it's not uh you know if you're if you do it the problem is it's more expensive to buy the um buy the hill way more it's like triple the price but yeah anyone that has money you know should definitely do that at least bring more humane uh stuff into your bodies and your kids and but it's tough with the economy right now i understand people are struggling like like i'm doing well and i'll look at the prices sometimes grocery store and i'm like what the hell crazy right i gotta think do i want to buy this so what if pay people you know if you have three poor kids to feed, it's tough.

I'm dropping hundreds every time I go to the groceries now.

That's insane.

And I don't have kids yet.

No, like I said, we're like, we're uncomfortable.

We look at it and go, what the fuck?

So imagine people barely getting a guy, a couple kids, if you have like one income.

It's like, so I do understand why people get frustrated out there.

Yeah.

I mean, that was a big selling point with the past election.

Yeah, that was in the gas.

That was the biggest one for Trump.

And it's like, I do think he's better for inflation, but I don't think he's as good as people think.

I think he also printed and overspent a lot just like

Biden.

And overspending is the biggest problem of inflation because it causes that to print more money yeah people don't understand it's like uh it's not just the taxes it's when it's when they print more money more money in circulation that directly causes inflation 100 everyone acts all dumb like oh we don't know why things are inflated it's like we know exactly why it's because we're printing more money yeah they slowed it down though right it's slowed down right now thank god man because i saw some crazy thing where like a million dollars a hundred years ago is worth like 40k

no i think yeah i think like 100 years ago i think it's even more i think like 20 000 would be worth more than a million today or like yeah it's crazy something stupid yeah since like the Federal Reserve was, since the Federal Reserve was created in 1913, that's when they started billing to inflate money.

Yeah, I think it was somewhere around like $20,000 would be worth a million equivalent.

It basically showed me like saving money is stupid.

Yeah, 90% of the money.

Yeah, you have to invest.

So if you're money sitting in cash, you're like losing money.

It's like the worst investment just to hold cash.

Yeah, and it sucks.

Sometimes you don't know anything about investment.

You don't know.

Like when I first started making money as a fighter, I didn't know to do my money.

So I was just sitting there losing.

You know, a lot of people don't think they know.

They don't know what to buy so it's it's complicated yeah did you figure out a good system for investing though yeah i do now you know i put it different places like i you know i don't give people investing advice like i buy individual stocks but you got derek moneyberg in your corner right yeah he actually helps me out quite a bit i do some stuff my own but yeah derek moneyberg helps me who is jewish guys by the way no that's

jews like i work with derek moneyberg like he's like one of my really good friends you know we worked together for years we're super close and people are like you hate jews i'm like well look how like loyal like this guy has been to me and i'm to him so that's why i got to be very clear it's tricky well and and the jews are good with money money.

Yeah.

No, but the investing is hard.

People who don't know, if you're buying stocks, that's why I tell them just like you can buy the S P 500 and it'll just kind of follow the trend of that.

It's probably better than picking individual stocks unless you know what you're doing.

Yeah.

I mean, yeah, I personally love working with Jewish people in business.

Yeah, I know it's they know business well, they know money well, like they're solid, you know.

Like I say it joking, but also, you know, kind of true.

Like, oh, yeah, I have Jewish friends, my accountant, my attorneys.

No, Jewish and Asian people are great at like money, saving money, making money.

Yeah, I know Asians are great at saving, making money too.

That's true.

I think Indian Americans, on average, are the wealthiest in America.

People don't like this because it kind of spins the white supremacy narrative on the head of like white, you know, what they're, it's not being pushed anymore, but a few years ago, it was being pushed so heavily.

White people, bad.

That's why they kind of hated Asians because Asians and Indians are outperforming white people.

Even like people from like Kenya and

these countries that are black that come in, they out-earn white Americans.

So it kind of spins the whole

racism as the cause of people making less.

And obviously, again, like anything, it's complex because these people have came from a table from a tougher position, but it's currently it's not the racism that's holding them back.

So maybe it comes from a long history of racism, but it's not the current issue.

Yeah.

Did you deal with a lot of racism growing up?

No, I grew up in an area that was mostly white, Native American, a little Mexican.

So there was no

real racist issues.

And I think the time was a little less racist when I was growing up too, because there was a few black kids at my school.

They were treated totally

normal.

There was a funny situation I I was thinking of back when BLM was hitting, you know, everyone was going crazy.

One of the black guys I saw post on Facebook, he's something like, I never felt racism at the school.

I was always treated as one of the guys.

And all the white girls were on there trying to tell him, like, you were racist.

They just, you know, and it's like, dude, he's literally telling you he was treated like one of the guys.

He never felt like he was treated differently.

And it's like,

of course, it's not to say racism didn't exist.

Of course, it does.

But as a whole, it didn't seem like in my time period and growing up, it's probably one of the least racist time periods ever.

Everyone was getting along great.

They'd make jokes and stuff sometimes, but then it got re-pushed with BLM and all that to kind of re-synchronize.

Yeah.

Yeah, back then you could say the R word, you could say like, you know, gay.

Yeah, but people would be like, well, that's the thing, too.

Yeah, like the funny thing is, like, you know, for F calling people a fake, I don't think I have to blink that.

But like, we'd call each other that, but there was a guy that we knew was gay at school and no one would call him that.

Like, we didn't like pick on him because we knew he was actually gay.

And so people need to understand we use these words not to like actually make fun of gay people and retard.

We're not actually making fun of people with Down syndrome.

It's like the way people talk.

People get too sensitive with it.

And I'm not saying I can't understand a little bit.

Like if you had a retarded kid, you've a Downstream kid, you'd probably not like hearing that word, but it's not how people mean to use the word.

Yeah.

I see on social media, people are like, they're basically saying like,

you know how they say there's more gay people now, basically?

They're saying that they're more open to admitting it these days.

Do you agree with that?

It's a little bit of it, but I think it's actually.

I think it's heavily pushed on the kids.

I think they're, because, you know, my daughter went to Marin high school, one of the most liberal high schools ever, and it's being so heavily pushed, the gay and trans things that a lot of people and people don't realize there's a lot more young girls are saying they're trans than boys.

So they're going through this uncomfortable period through you know, I don't know a boy can't relate but I still went through the uncomfortable through puberty But I guess girls really hit some hard when they you know start developing and stuff and that's when a lot of these girls are switching over start having a hard time fitting in finding identity

So with all the inflation going on are you investing in anything right now?

Oh, yeah, you have to be investing otherwise your money is losing worth and it'll be worth nothing since you know since uh

last hundred years uh dollar has lost 98 of its value but you got to be careful with investing I don't like to give people investing advice you know I work with like Derek Moneyberg which you know a Jew

Jews but he's he's helped me quite a bit with investing and stuff and it's um

for people who don't know though I don't like to give advice I'll just say if you're going to buy stocks just buy the S P 500 because typically it goes up so it's better than buying individual stocks unless you really know what you're doing a lot of financial advisors they're trying to buy what's trendy when something's trendy you probably already missed the wave you know you got to get stuff early so to buying individual stocks is uh really tricky sometimes buying stuff that's out of um that's not popular too is what you want to do but you have to make sure you're really doing the research you know that's why i'm lucky to have a guy that i can discuss this with so you better really be paying attention and it's also psychology is sometimes in investing too it's like following what not necessarily if the company is good it's what you think's right tesla is a good example you know i was buying tesla when all my friends were shorting it because they were looking at the financials saying it didn't make sense but i was thinking okay it's a good product elon musk i was thinking it was going to keep going up and you know my friends were shorting it and they all lost a ton of money.

I made money on it.

Psychology of it, you have to factor in.

So yeah, investing is tricky.

And then you add in companies like BlackRock.

They're buying up the number one, them and Vanguard.

They're the top buyers of almost every stock.

So they could completely crash the market if they want.

They're also the top buyer of

top buyer of Bitcoin now, I believe.

And even scarier that no one's hardly talking about, they should be a big, big deal is they're buying up houses like crazy now.

They're driving up real estate markets.

That's part of the reason why the real estate markets are spiking.

And then they're renting them.

The more houses that they buy, the more they'll drive the market up and the more they could raise rent.

It'll be, you know, they have that quote, you'll own nothing and be happy.

That's what they actually want.

I think they need to pass laws banning that.

You know, the fact that you can, these giant corporations can buy up all their homes and then the family can't afford a home.

It's ridiculous.

So you think companies like BlackRock and Vanguard should be banned from buying houses?

I know that's controversial, but absolutely.

You know, you can't let these, they're buying thousands of homes at a time and they can come in and bid over the asking price and drive out families that are trying to buy a home.

Families out there struggling, saving up, trying to get money for down payment.

They can just come in and offer 20% over.

It doesn't matter to them.

Yeah.

They're looking at the long game.

So they can come in and just swoop up thousands of houses and artificially drive the market up.

Yeah.

And also psychologically, I used to rent a lot.

There's a lot of fear when you're renting because you're like, oh, I might get kicked out.

They might get a new owner or a new occupant.

So it's not a good way to really live in my opinion.

Yeah, I know it depends.

Especially, well, if we have, once you have a family, you know, single, you know, moving around and stuff wasn't really a big deal, hopping around, so it wasn't a big deal.

But yeah, when you have a family and stuff, it's stressful.

It's super stressful, man.

People need to look, though, before buying real estate to really look at the other side of it.

It's just like a lot of upkeep.

There's extra costs.

You still have to pay.

You don't really own the home.

You have to pay property taxes.

To me, property taxes is the biggest scam ever.

I bought this home and they're saying I still have to pay on it.

I had a friend's mom who actually, I think it was in like New York or something where they drove the taxes up in her property.

She had to sell her home because she couldn't afford to pay the taxes.

That's just wrong.

And that tax is supposed to be used in the city, right?

Yeah, I don't know.

But who knows?

I believe so.

There needs to be a better way to track how they're spending that.

Yeah, I don't think if you own a home, you should have to pay.

That's my opinion.

Yeah.

But people don't realize, too, though, when you buy a home, typically you get a 30-year mortgage.

That means if you can't make the payment, the bank takes it back.

So I am pro-real estate, but I think people need to look at the...

the cons too instead of just buy, buy, buy.

Sometimes they can bite you in the ass.

And, you know, I have a couple of rental properties.

It's a headache.

You know, I had to get a company to manage it.

Like trying to manage homes, people calling, like a clogged toilet or something.

It's people don't think about all these factors.

Yeah, it's a lot of work.

So, the first time you came on the show, you called out Ben Shapiro.

Since then, Brett Cooper has left his company and now getting more views than him.

Have you seen that?

That's awesome.

I keep hearing the name Brett Cooper.

I honestly don't know who she is.

Oh, really?

I didn't know she's getting more reviews than Ben Shapiro.

That's awesome.

Well, Candace is getting more views than him, too.

Candace is crushing it.

They fired her.

And I think she's, someone said she has like more subscribers than the entire Daily Wire.

And she's just, she's bigger than the whole Daily Wire now.

It's like, that shows you too, though, the one thing you can't criticize was israel you can criticize america on the daily wire but as soon as you criticize israel fired right i'm not sure the brett cooper i don't know who she is what she says and why she was let go but it seems a little suspicious as well yeah it's gonna be interesting to see if they change the way they operate it's i don't it's gonna be hard i think they're kind of formed to support israel i think that's their whole purpose the daily wire i think they're a dying breed because things are changing and changing fast as you can see the daily wire is not that popular anymore yeah i had a description the second they fired candace i uh canceled it really so you used to be a subscriber to them i didn't really watch it i just didn't can cancel it because i wanted to i think i signed up when they hired uh gina carano who is a friend of mine actress um when you know they hired her when she got fired for i feel she got fired even oh for a pronoun joke

you know back when they were trying to push that whole thankfully that died out though yeah trauma and then they're pushing yeah but that was like a thing for a while like in hollywood you're supposed to say you know him him he or she her it's like i can look and see you're a dude i don't i don't need your pronouns that's just so stupid yeah i liked the concept of daily Wire, just education, you know, especially with the children.

They were showing children good programming.

Yeah, that's why I subscribed.

And even though I never ended up really watching it, I'm like, I never canceled my

membership.

Cause I'm like, you know what?

I want to support this

organization.

And I saw that and I'm like, oh, I don't want any part of this organization.

Do you think that was from the start of their inception, or do you think later on they just got so big, they started getting crazy money offers?

I think it was from the start.

Really?

A lot of these organizations are planned from the beginning, you know?

Wow.

A lot of them are planned in Israel, especially the conservative media.

If you look at them, it's all like Breitbart, perfect example.

They were founded in Israel with Netanyahu, Breitbart, and who else is that?

I think Vin Shapiro, that's where he came from.

So these organizations, a lot of times, are planned from Israel, pushed in, funded.

Well, our tax dollars go to Israel.

Then they fund these new organizations where you can't be critical of Israel.

And then we funnel more money to Israel.

So it's kind of like it's a scheme of we're giving them money to promote their country.

Then we keep giving them more money.

Dude, it's pretty nuts because knowing what I know now about funding, like if I had millions of dollars, I would know how to go so viral.

Like with these clippers, like you could pay these kids to just make clips of you all day and just blow up.

Right.

No, that's the crazy part.

You realize things are changing really fast.

Like, you know, having a podcast, so you have to realize it's like not a lot of people are watching the long form content now.

I personally very rarely do every now and again.

So that's what I realized started a podcast.

I'm like, oh, shit, you got to get like clips and this.

And there's different social media.

So it's this, like anything, you have to.

pay attention and follow the industry.

Absolutely.

Same thing with fighting.

You know, I fought for 20 years professionally.

I had to follow trends, see the new things, see what people are doing.

So now I'm, you know, started a podcast knowing nothing.

You realize, oh, you're not just sitting there for two hours a week conversation.

There's so much more work to it.

Yeah, if you don't have clips these days, you're not going to make it as a podcast.

No, I mean, there could be some exceptions.

The guy, well, the guys have already made it, like Joe Rogan.

Yeah.

Even him, he's posting clips.

Yeah, no, yeah, yeah.

It's true.

It's true.

And you definitely couldn't come out new without doing that.

Yeah, not at all.

Well, dude, where could people find your podcast?

Rumble, YouTube, Spotify, Apple, a few other places.

It's Fightback Podcast, Jake Shields.

You know, Jake Shields, AJ J on Twitter, Jake Shields on Instagram.

Fight Back Podcast is the new store I just launched with merch, all kinds of, you know, cool fight t-shirts, critical t-shirts, stuff like that.
