Spring roll.

Speaker 1 If it were me, I say the cannoli.

Speaker 1 Isn't that about the same size? No.

Speaker 1 You don't even know what I'm talking about. I know what cannolis are.
What? Those are like the pastry, like the crispy pastry filled with like the white shit.

Speaker 1 Oh, damn.

Speaker 1 That's right.

Speaker 1 Walked right into that one. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yep. All right.
All right. DJ loves cannolis.

Speaker 1 No, I actually don't. I actually don't like them at all.
Actually.

Speaker 1 That's a fucking lie. No, it's real, bro.
I don't like the cannolis. They're not good.
I've never, and like, listen, for like, you know,

Speaker 1 I could tell from looking at you, bro. Bullshit.
No, cannot.

Speaker 1 This is a total lie. It's not.
Cannolis are above the line for you. They are not below the line.
Listen, full disclosure, I've tried one,

Speaker 1 but I don't think it was like an original, you know what I'm saying, like mama me

Speaker 1 cannoli. I think that might be the difference.
That sounds racist. What? That sounds racist.
Well, I mean, it's historically accurate.

Speaker 1 I'm good with like food and fucking, you know, culture shit, right? Does the man like cannolis? No, I agree.

Speaker 1 I'm not here to hear this line. How is that racist?

Speaker 1 Mama Mia.

Speaker 1 I love experiencing like other cultures' foods, man. Yeah, I made a steak last night.
I did like an Indian twist on it, though. What'd you do?

Speaker 1 So I took a shit, then wash my hands before I started cooking it.

Speaker 1 Dude, that's fucking wrong.

Speaker 1 Z Shine,

Speaker 1 You gonna let him disrespect your culture like that?

Speaker 3 He said that joke twice earlier already.

Speaker 3 The joke was kind of funny. I laughed at it when he said it.
It's funny. It's funny.
It's funny three times.

Speaker 1 This is one of the things he said before the show started. Just to test the temperature.
Got it.

Speaker 3 He said it's funny three times, so it was not funny.

Speaker 1 So is that what happens before I come in here? Yeah. So he tests all the jokes out.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 3 So then we filter out the worst ones. So he tries the best ones, which are still bad.

Speaker 1 Yeah. And then he does them like three or four times.

Speaker 1 yes because like when they don't laugh the first time that's the indication to tell it again because they must not have heard me yeah right right right got it that one was good though you liked that one yeah you laughed at that one that's good i was laughing at you

Speaker 1 no man we got we got a packed show today man we got a lot of stuff to talk about as as usual

Speaker 1 um

Speaker 1 but you know i wanted to do some some like you know going in the time machine with you for a minute and reminisce just a little bit before we get to our main headlines.

Speaker 1 Cause I saw this thing come, this headline I'm about to show you here. I saw this come out and I'm like, damn, man, like times have just changed.

Speaker 1 You know, this headline, and it's not, I mean, listen, I don't condone it at all. All right.
But Ohio teacher pleads guilty to sex with student. Right.

Speaker 1 And like, we've been seeing, like, this is a new thing, I guess.

Speaker 1 But I'm just trying to understand, like, bro, like, where was this, like, where was this energy when I was in school? You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1 Like, bro, like, these teachers and shit now, like, bro, all my teachers. I don't know.
What are we talking about? You know, it got into the headline here.

Speaker 1 Yeah, well, yeah, this, this Ohio teacher, she had, she was having sex with a student. Oh, it was a woman.
Yeah, it was a woman teacher, sex with a student

Speaker 1 in Ohio. Yeah.
And she claimed that her husband had neglected her, but she pled guilty on Monday to having sex with her student. Her husband neglected her, so she had sex with a fucking child.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 But I'm just like, I'm just curious, bro, because like none of my teachers look like that.

Speaker 1 My teachers all look like fucking this or Miss fucking Trump.

Speaker 1 Who's that lady? From Matilda? I don't know, Matilda, but that. You haven't seen Matilda?

Speaker 1 Okay, now hold on. Now, hold on.
That is a fucking classic movie. Have you seen it? I have seen it.
Okay.

Speaker 3 But that's not a movie you'll expect Andy to see at all.

Speaker 1 That's a classic movie.

Speaker 3 That's completely like miles away from your circle.

Speaker 1 What's it about?

Speaker 3 It's about a very very brilliant kid who's in a school and the principal is very strict about it and she's a brilliant, but it's like a kid movie.

Speaker 1 Okay. It's up there with Sam Lott and shit, bro.
All right. It ain't up there with Sand Lott, but that's fine.
No, I'm saying like that genre. Sam Lott.
You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1 Sand Lott and Matilda do not go in the same fucking sentence. Sure, they do.
No, they fucking know. Only by someone who's a moron.

Speaker 1 Let's ask the people.

Speaker 1 Now, Andy, they're saying that. Sand Lott and Matilda belong in the same category.
It's like the little rascals. It's all in the same fucking thing.

Speaker 1 Well, listen, I don't want to get fucked with by that lady. So I kind of get it.
My teachers look like that. Let's keep that.
That's what my teachers look like, bro. I agree.

Speaker 1 I think that's the problem. They need to bring back the masculine lesbian gym teachers, and they wouldn't have any of these problems.

Speaker 1 Look, dude,

Speaker 1 I'll be real with you. I see this happening more and more, too.
It's like recent, bro. It's not a different thing.
And like the women that are doing it are somewhat attractive. They are.
And they are.

Speaker 1 If that were a man doing that, it would be like, it just shows you the double standard in society. Yeah, bro.
Yep. Like, if that were a man doing that, they'd be throwing his ass in the wood chipper.

Speaker 1 Rightfully so, by the way.

Speaker 1 But there, you know, if women do it, half the people, three quarters of the dudes are like, fuck yeah. Right.

Speaker 1 So it's definitely one of those weird societal double standards. Yeah.
Dude, if this shit happened back like when I was in school, we like I would be pushing to charge the kid.

Speaker 1 You know what I'm saying? That's how bad the teachers looked. Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 1 I agree. Don't put the kid in jail, man.
It is weird, though. And like, just blame, oh, you know, I was neglected by my husband.
Like, come on, come on, lady. Come on, come on.
But, dude, it is weird.

Speaker 1 Like, what are you doing as a 30-something-year-old attractive? 42. She's 42.
There was another one that

Speaker 1 just got accused of that. Yeah.
Who was pretty attractive? Very young. Yeah.
And she fucking

Speaker 1 was also married.

Speaker 1 And the mom found the exchange in the kid's phone and then called the cops on her.

Speaker 1 Dude, one of those teachers got fucking pregnant by the student. Dude, I don't know.
It does seem like it's happening more and more. And it is weird.
Like,

Speaker 1 what's causing it?

Speaker 1 Why are women doing that? Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's sick. That was not something that women, the teachers, unless it happened back then and we just never heard of it.
Yeah, right.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 1 did you guys ever know of any teachers doing that? But again, I mean, like back then with our teachers, nobody's bragging about that shit. You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1 Yeah, but dude,

Speaker 1 you know, I don't know, man. It's, I mean, look,

Speaker 1 it's sick. She needs to go to jail.
It needs to woodchuck her for sure. I don't understand why people...
Like, I don't understand it. Yeah, no, I don't get it.

Speaker 1 Like, why the fuck are you an attractive? Like, go back to that lady.

Speaker 1 How old is she? 42. Okay.
She's. Emily Nutley.
She's not terrible looking.

Speaker 1 You know what I'm saying? Like, she's not like a hideous wench. Yeah, right like right you can't find a dude that's over 15 years old to fuck

Speaker 1 You know I'm saying like I find that hard to believe

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's difficult, you know, so like

Speaker 1 she's definitely into some weird shit and I think a lot of women get fucking get off the hook for being into that weird ass kid shit because they're women and

Speaker 1 you know and and like dude, it's you know, if you ask the kid,

Speaker 1 he's gonna be like, fuck, dude, I'm not mad at her, but like, right, bro.

Speaker 1 free mrs nutley yeah yeah it's just i don't know and then you look in the comments dude and everybody's like fuck yeah bro like

Speaker 1 i'd be all about that like that's sick that's sick that's that's equally you're excuse would you excuse that same behavior from a man absolutely not nobody would absolutely not absolutely not There's a lot of double standards in society between men and women, dude, that like are very unfair.

Speaker 1 Very, very, very unfair. And everybody knows them.
That's the part that's

Speaker 1 real. Act like it's not real.
Yeah, it's bullshit. You know, like, and dude, I don't, I'm not even advocating for fair.
That's everybody else. I'm fully aware that shit's not fair.

Speaker 1 But everybody else wants to talk about equality and fairness and all this shit. Well, you know, I mean,

Speaker 1 there's a lot of double standards to discuss. This is definitely like one where,

Speaker 1 like, if that were, if that were you, you, your life would be true. Yeah.
And I mean, their life is ruined. I mean, she's going to go to fucking jail.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, she's got to register as like a sex offender and all of that good stuff um

Speaker 1 yeah she's she's gonna be listed on the ohio sex offender registry as a tier three sex offender is she going to jail oh yeah facing up to 10 years

Speaker 1 not not enough not enough wood chipper sorry mrs nutley you know what dude i

Speaker 1 i agree yeah yeah it is what it is dude you got to hold people to the same fucking standards that's it just is what it is and

Speaker 1 while you know like I think it also, I think it's interesting how

Speaker 1 people will look at young men and say, oh, well, you know, they made the decision and they wanted that.

Speaker 1 Well, you don't think that 15 or 16-year-old girls are just as manipulative? You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1 Like, I would actually argue that it's probably easier to take care, take advantage of a 15-year-old boy than it is a 15-year-old girl.

Speaker 1 Because 15-year-old girls have already started to get male attention from all their peers. And,

Speaker 1 you know,

Speaker 1 they've started to navigate how to

Speaker 1 deal with that sexual attention from so they understand sexual discipline much earlier than men. Some men never figure it out because men are typically the people pursuing sex,

Speaker 1 not being pursued, yeah. Yeah, and then when the first woman that comes and shows them, you know, any affection or any sort of like sexual interest, they're gonna jump on it, dude.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, like,

Speaker 1 so it's uh that's crude, yeah, it's just look, man, we need to have fucking laws that

Speaker 1 people are held equally accountable to. And, you know, I personally, when I think,

Speaker 1 when I see this happen and I see women

Speaker 1 doing this to

Speaker 1 young men,

Speaker 1 and then I see the comments, to me,

Speaker 1 I think it's fucked up. Yeah, it is.
It is, guys, tell us what you think down in the comments. Let us know.
With that being said, man, let's get into our cruise.

Speaker 1 Let's cruise the internet with all the plethora of headlines we have for you today. Yep.
Yep. Sponsored by First Form Screaming Freedom.
That's right. Yep.
I'm halfway through this cam.

Speaker 1 Zean thought something was wrong with me. No, there is.
He's like, he's like, are you on drugs today or something? I said, no, it's just the first form screaming.

Speaker 1 Well,

Speaker 1 thanks for the read.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah, I got you.
All right. That's what we got.

Speaker 1 Let's get into these headlines, guys. Remember, if you want to see any of these pictures, articles, links, videos, go to andyforsella.com.
You guys can find them all linked there.

Speaker 1 Check down in the link description below and check them out there as well. With that being said, let's get to our first set of headlines.
Let's cover some Doge updates. Doge.
Doge has some updates.

Speaker 1 This headline reads: Elon Musk's Doge discovers millions in taxpayer dollars wasted on unemployment claims for fake people.

Speaker 1 Shocking. I mean, we've seen it.
They were collecting social security checks and shit. Now, unemployment's apparently been compromised to no one's surprise.

Speaker 1 Elon Musk's Doge revealed in a bombshell finding that millions of dollars in unemployment claims have been going to quote-unquote fake people who haven't even been born yet.

Speaker 1 Some, not even in this century. Here's a tweet coming straight from Doge saying an initial survey of unemployment insurance claims since 2020 revealed the following.

Speaker 1 24,000 people over 115 years old claimed almost $60 million in benefits. 28,000 people between 1 and 5 years old claimed $254 million in benefits.

Speaker 1 And then 9.7,000 people with birth dates over 15 years in the future claimed. almost $70 million in benefits.
In one case, someone with a birthday in the year 2154

Speaker 1 claimed $41,000. Well, that must be Baron Trump.
That's who that is. Yeah, he came back from time.

Speaker 1 He's came back to the future, back to 1890, wrote a book, then was teleported to now, where he's about to conquer the world. Didn't want to take daddy's money.
Yeah, I mean, that's deployment.

Speaker 1 That's obviously Baron Trump. Makes sense to me.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 You know, that's the rest of them, you know, have no excuse.

Speaker 1 So we're talking $400 million

Speaker 1 in,

Speaker 1 you know, bullshit. Where'd the money go? Where'd it go? Where did it go? Where did it go? And you can't tell me that we can't track the money.

Speaker 1 Like, you guys can track every single dollar down to the fucking dime of an actual citizen, but with forensic audits, but you can't figure out where this goes. Oh, they know.
Let's see where it goes.

Speaker 1 They know where it goes. Yeah, why aren't we telling us? Where's the full disclosure we were promised?

Speaker 1 And by the way, if you didn't get the reference, the reference is: there's a lot of people that think Baron Trump's a time traveler and Donald Trump too.

Speaker 1 And they're here from the future to save the world.

Speaker 1 It's reasonable.

Speaker 1 It's kind of crazy. No,

Speaker 1 it's not crazy. It's

Speaker 1 true.

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 1 I think the

Speaker 1 extent that people try to go to just like

Speaker 1 tie dots together.

Speaker 1 You know what I figured out, dude?

Speaker 1 People want to think and talk and put things together, but they want to do nothing about the things that are obvious that need to be done. Crazy.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Elon Musk tweeted out saying your tax dollars were going to pay fraudulent unemployment claims for fake people born in the future.

Speaker 1 This is so crazy that I had to read it several times before it sank in.

Speaker 1 Now,

Speaker 1 Doge, they've obviously still been doing their thing.

Speaker 1 But that's not even what people are mad about.

Speaker 1 They're concerned about the economy, Andy. They're concerned about the stock market.

Speaker 1 And it's interesting because, you know,

Speaker 1 it's been a wild few days. And

Speaker 1 there's been some ups, been some downs. Stocks soar after strong demand and treasury action and tariff pause.
So this came out yesterday.

Speaker 1 Wall Street surged Wednesday after a blowout 10-year Treasury auction helped calm fears of a financial crisis, delivering a sharp rebuke to doomsayers who predicted foreign investors would flee American assets in protest of President Donald Trump's trade agenda.

Speaker 1 And President Trump announced a pause in tariff hikes on some countries.

Speaker 1 So, there's been some wins, right?

Speaker 1 A new bill just got passed in the House today.

Speaker 1 It was a House bill that voted for a measure advancing President Donald Trump's MAGA agenda, including tax cuts

Speaker 1 after fierce Republican infighting. So it passed again in the House 216 to 2414.

Speaker 1 I don't believe any Democrats voted for it or any communists voted for it. Shocking.

Speaker 1 But here's the thing. Again, like yesterday, things were great.
Everything was looking good. Art of the deal, Trump pauses tariffs on countries that didn't retaliate, causing U.S.
stocks to skyrocket.

Speaker 1 China is now at 125 i think they're actually up even uh just before the recording they're up to like a 140 or something like that um and so you got that going on trump put this tweet out or this truth out yesterday uh saying based on the lack of uh respect that china has shown to the world's markets i am hereby raising the tariff charge to china by the united states of america to 125 percent effective immediately At some point, hopefully in the near future, China will realize that the days of ripping off the USA and other countries is no longer sustainable or acceptable.

Speaker 1 And it's interesting because, you know, all the communists, all the left people on that side of the aisle, they get pissed off at all these tariffs and stuff going in, saying they're going to destroy it.

Speaker 1 And it's interesting because a clip has been circulating.

Speaker 1 And let's check this out.

Speaker 4 Yeah, please.

Speaker 2 Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, they've been talking about tariffs for decades.

Speaker 5 How far does China have to go?

Speaker 5 How much more repression?

Speaker 5 How big a trade deficit and loss of jobs for the American worker?

Speaker 1 It says to the Chinese

Speaker 1 that

Speaker 1 their unfair trade policies have got to end.

Speaker 1 It says to the Chinese, this is a shot across your bow, reform,

Speaker 1 because if you don't,

Speaker 1 there are going to be dramatic consequences.

Speaker 2 How come when these Democrat elites want tariffs, everything's hunky-dory, but when President Trump wants tariffs, all hell breaks loose. Do you see this double standard?

Speaker 6 I love this guy.

Speaker 4 Whoever the hell that is,

Speaker 6 that's really nice. I appreciate that question.
No, Chuck Schumer and Nancy Peloton, everybody knew you had to do it, but they never had the guts to do it. It does take guts.

Speaker 6 It even takes guts for our country to go through it. That's why I say be cool.
They were saying about, see, just be cool. It's going to work out.
It's going to work out. And it's working out.

Speaker 6 I can tell you, working out maybe faster than I thought. But I said,

Speaker 6 it's going to take a little conditioning. It's a transition to, it's really, I think it's a transition to greatness.

Speaker 4 It's going to be greatness. Our country is going to be, there'll be nothing like it.
And people investing in our country, they're going to do better than they've ever done before.

Speaker 1 What? No, I mean, so it is interesting. I mean, that was them back in 96.

Speaker 1 when the percentages and the amounts were way less than what they are now, but now they're acting like it's such a bad thing. Yeah.
Was that before they were bought, maybe?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 I mean, look, all we got to do is ask anybody who's against the restructuring of the international tariffs and trade agreements.

Speaker 1 All we have to do is look at their bank accounts. All we got to do is audit where they're getting their money because they're benefiting financially some way, shape, or form, period.

Speaker 1 And if you're not benefiting financially,

Speaker 1 then it would make sense that you would want the United States of America to be independent strategically from literally every angle and self-sufficient from every angle. Pharmaceuticals, fuel,

Speaker 1 GDP of all different products. And what we actually have here, manufacturing.
What we have here, though,

Speaker 1 is, and then, you know, people are like, well, if the manufacturing comes back, it's just going to be a bunch of fucking robots. Yeah, okay, maybe that's true.
However,

Speaker 1 the reality of it is, is that allows us to be strategically secure so that China can't say, hey, guess what? No more medicine. Hey, guess what? No more microchips.
Hey, guess what? This or that.

Speaker 1 And it removes us from being at the mercy of other countries that don't have our interest in mind. And that strategic advantage is a massive advantage.

Speaker 1 And what Trump's trying to do is get us back to that point where we are dependent on ourselves, on our own production capabilities, on our own people, on our own technology, so that China doesn't control it.

Speaker 1 And what's happened over the last 20 years is China has become the epicenter of manufacturing, and that's allowed them to control the other countries they deal with strategically at their whim.

Speaker 1 You know, oh, you know, we don't,

Speaker 1 they don't like something that somebody's doing. They can just make it very difficult for them to even get any kind of products.

Speaker 1 So,

Speaker 1 you know, it is what it is, man.

Speaker 1 You know, look, what he's doing is going to temporarily cause some issues. Nobody's denying that.
But just like taking your fat ass and getting it in fucking shape, guess what?

Speaker 1 You're going to have to be uncomfortable for a little bit before you're comfortable. That's the reality.

Speaker 1 And we have had leaders in place for a long time who have sold America out for their own personal gain and profit, for their families' gain and profit, to where it it doesn't serve the American people, which, by the way, is treasonous.

Speaker 1 And that's been going on for decades. And Trump is trying to fix it.
So of course there's going to be some lag time

Speaker 1 where we go from one way of doing things to another way of doing things. All right.

Speaker 1 When you switch jobs, when you go to the new job, you're not just automatically smooth. It's rough.
You got to learn.

Speaker 1 It's just the laws of nature. Changing things,

Speaker 1 you go through a phase of discomfort. And let's be fucking real.

Speaker 1 How many of these people are actually experiencing any discomfort? Okay.

Speaker 1 Most of them aren't. Most of them, the prices of things are going down

Speaker 1 or they're choosing things that have not gone up, which is exactly what we're supposed to be doing.

Speaker 1 When you see the price of something in the store go up three or four times and there's an alternative there that has made here or somewhere else one of these other countries that's not imposing any tariffs, which one are you going to buy?

Speaker 1 Okay, which takes the power away from China.

Speaker 1 By all of these other countries saying, no, we are going to have fair trade with America and we're done taking advantage. And everybody's saying that.
because they have to. We have the leverage.

Speaker 1 We are the biggest consumers on the planet. They all have to work with us or they don't have an economy.
By the way, China's the same and Trump knows that. All right.

Speaker 1 So the reality of this situation that we're dealing with here

Speaker 1 is that

Speaker 1 if China does not come to the table and give us fair trade, then all the other countries are going to be working with us and not with them. That's reality.

Speaker 1 So what he's doing is he's using Xi Japing's own ego and bravado and need to be this, you know, like, you know, how he walks around like he's the boss of the fucking world against him.

Speaker 1 All right. So this is a very smart chess move.

Speaker 1 And since most people who are criticizing this have never had to negotiate a fucking deal ever on anything in their entire life, they don't understand it. Okay.

Speaker 1 These people are afraid to talk to people in fucking person. So I don't really care if they're fucking upset.
No.

Speaker 1 Here's another thing, too.

Speaker 1 Like, I've also thought about this and you mentioned it, like, you know, bringing manufacturing manufacturing production back here, and like, oh, you know, we're just going to replace those robots.

Speaker 1 Well, I mean, here's a brutally honest conversation, and I've taken a long time thinking about this, bro, but like, here's the reality, in my opinion.

Speaker 1 A lot of Americans are lazy. Yes.
A lot of Americans, like, and we are lazy and we are greedy at the same time. And those two things can't go together.

Speaker 1 No, it's, it's lazy and entitled at the same time. You know what I'm saying? Like, like, we're, so we want the best shit, but we don't want to actually do anything to get the best shit.

Speaker 1 So it's like, what the fuck do you think is going to happen? Well, that's that's where all this talk of oppression comes in.

Speaker 1 Well, I haven't been able to succeed because I'm this or I'm that or I'm this or I'm that. Bro, you didn't succeed because you don't fucking pay the price.
That's it. That's it.

Speaker 1 It's a and it's a truth that we're going to have to come to terms with. Okay.

Speaker 1 But that truth culturally has made America weak, which is why we talk about personal excellence being the ultimate rebellion because to switch the culture from an entitled, lazy,

Speaker 1 unwilling culture we have to switch the way that we behave and make it cool to be the opposite of those things and the way you make it cool to be the opposite of those things is by going out and building your life and your your community and your business uh with certain high standards and living those standards and then when people bitch at you about it you tell them to eat shit yep okay so

Speaker 1 It's very simple.

Speaker 1 The reality is, is Trump's removing the power from from China and recentering it in the United States. Most people can't understand that,

Speaker 1 but he's doing it, and it doesn't really matter what they fucking think. It just doesn't.
No, it doesn't. Now, you mentioned something else about the people, you know, pissed off at all of this.

Speaker 1 Like, one of the other things that came up is when Trump put out that truth saying, like, now is a great time to buy or whatever. Did you see that? Right.

Speaker 1 Well, that got a bunch of people's panties in a bunch. Let's check in with Adam Schiff real quick.
Let's check this clip out.

Speaker 1 How concerned concerned are you with this market fluctuation and are you concerned that there could be members of the White House that are benefiting from it? Absolutely.

Speaker 1 I'm writing to the White House to demand who knew in advance that the president was going to once again flip-flop on tariffs. And are people cashing in?

Speaker 1 There is just all too much opportunity. for people in the White House and the administration to be insider trading and you can't put it past them for a minute.

Speaker 1 So we're going to try to find out.

Speaker 2 There's a good chance they'll just ignore you though, right?

Speaker 1 Should there be some other independent investigation into this? Well, I think Congress should do an investigation into this, but we're going to demand answers from the administration.

Speaker 1 I think you're right, they're likely to stonewall, particularly if they've been engaged in corrupt insider trading. But they won't be able to hide it for good.

Speaker 1 I mean, we know who's in the administration, we can look at

Speaker 1 eventually what people are buying and selling. This will come out.

Speaker 1 But an administration that has their own meme coins and is already engaged in self-interested dealing when Elon is doging agencies that are doing oversight of his own businesses.

Speaker 1 In that kind of corrupt climate, you have to assume the worst. And we're going to try to find out.

Speaker 1 That's going to come back to Biden.

Speaker 1 Yeah, are you going to investigate it? All right.

Speaker 1 Okay. Yeah.
Yeah. Let's do it.
You know who else jumped in on this bandwagon too?

Speaker 1 AOC.

Speaker 1 AOC jumped on it.

Speaker 1 AOC for once says what everyone is thinking about Trump tariff madness. So she's put out this tweet

Speaker 1 yesterday saying, any member of Congress who purchased stocks in the last 48 hours should probably disclose that now. I've been hearing some interesting chatter on the floor.

Speaker 1 Disclosure deadline is May 15th. We're about to learn a few things.
It's time to ban insider trading in Congress. I think it's time to ban any trading in Congress.
Period.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Nancy Pelosi in 2021, trader of the year.

Speaker 1 She's the trader of the year and the trader of the year. Bro, she's at 700% retired right now.
Yeah,

Speaker 1 where is Schumer's portfolio? Where is Schiff's portfolio? Let's see it. Where are the, you know, let's see who's, let's do see the trend.
Let's see this. I agree with them.
Let's see.

Speaker 1 That's the first thing I fucking agree with them all. Yeah, let's see it.
Let's see all of it. Let's see it, man.

Speaker 1 I'm down with it. Yeah, and then when we find out who's been doing it, we get to reconfiscate and redistribute all the profits.
Just like you guys have also been saying. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Just redistribute the rest.

Speaker 1 I'm cool. Yep.
I'm cool with that. You know, but here's another thing I want to bring up on this.

Speaker 1 Is that a real cover?

Speaker 1 I was going to say, like. It should be.

Speaker 1 How do they make Nancy Pelosi not look like a zombie? Yeah. She actually, she's all right there.
I mean, she doesn't look like she's dead. Now she looks like a zombie.
Bro, she's bad right now. Yeah.

Speaker 1 She's pretty bad right now. Yeah.
Not bad enough. Not bad enough.

Speaker 1 But here's the the thing, Andy, on our last CTI we covered talking about China and you know, all of this situation, you mentioned something

Speaker 1 as like an alternative possibility, something that could happen, right? You mentioned about how China could just you know take all of our IPs and just go do the shit themselves.

Speaker 1 Here is a new article that just came out from New York Post.

Speaker 1 Headline reads, How China has amped up its factories and is threatening to crush United Industry, United States industry with a new tsunami of cheap products. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yesterday. I told you that.
I told you that's what they would do. Yeah.
That's their only strategic move. Yeah.
And they just invested about $2 trillion

Speaker 1 in their stuff within the last couple of years, which makes me wonder. Like, I think they knew this was coming.
Right. Like they knew that, you know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1 They like this was their fail-safe. Well, of course, they've been ripping everybody off for two decades.
They know eventually people are going to say enough and they want to be prepared for it.

Speaker 1 It's just wild, man. It's wild.

Speaker 1 And now everybody's talking about it. There is another thing they're doing, too.
They're starting to dump our fucking bonds. Have you been seeing that?

Speaker 1 So this is another response. I guess, you know, I didn't think about it, but, you know, China holds three quarters of a trillion dollars of U.S.
debt.

Speaker 1 They're the second largest foreign holder after Japan.

Speaker 1 And they've been selling off and cashing in on their bonds of debt that we have with them.

Speaker 1 And I mean, again, three quarters of a trillion dollars, it's a fucking lot. You know what I'm saying? To be pulling out real, you know, relatively quick.

Speaker 1 So, and I don't know the political tactics behind it, if it can be stopped or whatever the case it is, but it is something to definitely keep on

Speaker 1 the horizon. But as of today, the Chinese won

Speaker 1 falls to lowest levels since 2007 after Trump tariffs kicked in.

Speaker 1 How long are they going to ride that out? It's working. Yeah.
How long are they going to ride that out, bro? It's working.

Speaker 1 If Xi Xi Ping doesn't come around, there will be a revolution in China because of this.

Speaker 1 So it is what it is.

Speaker 1 Or there'll be an actual hot war between the United States and China. And it'll be a physical war.
Yeah, that's what I mean. Yeah, it'll be a fucking, not a cyber fucking, it'll be a real one.

Speaker 1 Like, it'll be a fucking legit.

Speaker 1 And it's scary to think about.

Speaker 1 It is scary to think about. At this point, I don't give a fuck.
Yeah. Fucking, let's do it.
Yeah. Let's fucking do it.
done.

Speaker 1 I mean,

Speaker 1 I'm tired of fucking talking about it. You know, these motherfuckers talk about this shit all the time.
Let's fucking go.

Speaker 1 That's how I feel about it. I mean, I like orange chicken.
Listen, I'm just like, I'm tired of people fucking with everything. Like, okay, then let's fucking do it.
Conquer it.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we would conquer it. That's my only, like, dude, if I was in, bro, like, that'd be my only rule.
Any war we get into, when we win, we're taking the fucking land.

Speaker 1 That's the way it's always been. That's how it's supposed to be.
Yeah, I don't.

Speaker 1 Listen, I don't really care anymore. I'm tired of these fucking elite fucks all playing with our lives and playing with our incomes and playing, you know, God to everybody else.
I don't fucking care.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Last little bit on this, man, is these fucking stock markets.
Something interesting I looked at.

Speaker 1 So the stock market is completely overinflated with fucking foreign cash. That's what people don't understand.

Speaker 1 When things got really bad, okay, the last,

Speaker 1 four years with Biden and people are paying $12 a dozen for eggs and all this fucking bullshit,

Speaker 1 the fucking stock market didn't go down. It went up.
Yeah. Tremendously.

Speaker 1 Why?

Speaker 1 Because it's propped up with foreign money, bro.

Speaker 1 It's over-inflated. Like the number that we have in the stock market is not reflective.
of an accurate American investment

Speaker 1 portfolio. For sure.

Speaker 1 And dude,

Speaker 1 China should be banned from buying property here. They should honestly be banned from investing in our stock market.

Speaker 1 We should just say, fuck you, and take the hit all at once and never fuck with them ever again because they will go back to being a third world little fucking shithole country like they like they have been for fucking thousands of fucking years until they started figuring out how to fucking steal all of our shit and everybody else's shit.

Speaker 1 So if it were me, I'd be doing the same thing Trump's doing.

Speaker 1 Only I'd be more aggressive. I'd say, oh, yeah, by the way, now I'm taking all your fucking property here.
No more ownership of fucking anything by Chinese nationals in this country, period. You got

Speaker 1 citizenship in China.

Speaker 1 You have companies in China. You do business in China.
Fuck you.

Speaker 1 Make them feel it. It'd be over.
Make them feel it. It would be over.
They'd come crawling. with their hat in their hand saying, okay, we're not as tough as we said we were.
The rice hat. Yeah.

Speaker 1 That's right. I mean, that's that's what it is bro yeah i don't it is what it is they'll be back to eating fucking crickets and shit bro

Speaker 1 it's crazy i want to show you like to your point though right so i got some screenshots if you guys listen to audio have to come check this out on youtube but look dude china people think china's like kicking ass right now like i also think that they're good like bro people forget that's a communist country it's a communist country

Speaker 1 They had they have slavery over there going on today, right now. You know I'm saying they've genocided plenty of people over there like not like fucking 50 60 years ago.
Like, it's not only that.

Speaker 1 Their whole ideology is different than the United States. They actually do this part right.
Okay. They care about China.

Speaker 1 They care about China and they care about Chinese people, which is fucking how they should.

Speaker 1 Okay. We don't do that.
And that's our fault. That's not them.
That doesn't make them bad. Okay.
I'm going to call it as I see it.

Speaker 1 There's a lot of shit I don't like about them, but they do that right. And we don't do that right.

Speaker 1 And by the way, why don't we do that right?

Speaker 1 Oh, it's because they are allowed to invest in our shit over here, corrupt our politicians, corrupt our media, corrupt everything that's going on, drive these ridiculous fucking political culture

Speaker 1 destroying narratives into our schools, like the trans narrative about kids being able to choose their gender or, you know, pumping our kids full of bullshit.

Speaker 1 stuff while they teach their kids mathematics and combat. Okay.

Speaker 1 We're the idiots. All right.
And we have to fix it. Cause I'm going to tell you right now, they are willing to lie, cheat, and fucking steal to stay ahead of America.
And we don't do that.

Speaker 1 They don't do that. Americans don't say, hey, you know what? Like, this is the relationship.
Like,

Speaker 1 men will really understand this. Okay.

Speaker 1 Most men have a friend or two

Speaker 1 that

Speaker 1 they can call at three o'clock in the morning and say, Hey, I need you to fucking be here.

Speaker 1 And I don't need, I need you to not ask me any fucking questions about it, but we got to take care of something. I need you to be, they're going to be there.

Speaker 1 And then they're not going to say shit about it ever to fucking anybody. Okay.

Speaker 1 China does that as a country. Okay.
They say, hey, you're Chinese and you're part of China.

Speaker 1 We're going to take care of you. And we don't give a fuck what we got to do to do that.
That's not how they operate over here. Over here, we operate on idealism.

Speaker 1 We operate on the world is a nice place. The world is not a nice place.
Those people do not like us. They do not want us to do well.

Speaker 1 The only reason that we aren't speaking Chinese is because they would ruin their country trying to come at us. All right.
We have lost the understanding that

Speaker 1 as a culture, and for a lot of different reasons, that

Speaker 1 the real world is a very hard and cutthroat place.

Speaker 1 And our culture isn't built for that anymore. And theirs is.

Speaker 1 And so, you know, until the United States gets back to the understanding of we have to do what we have to do to take care of our country first,

Speaker 1 we're going to continue to suffer. No matter who likes it, no matter who eats it.
Like, bro,

Speaker 1 yeah. It's, we don't owe China fucking anything.
We don't owe any of these countries anything. We owe our own citizens and our own people the best possible country that we can offer them.

Speaker 1 And I believe that me, personally, that means zero dollars to fucking anybody. Now, trump doesn't share that same opinion because we are still sending money to other causes like israel

Speaker 1 but

Speaker 1 i i just think i i you know

Speaker 1 i think we need to be a lot more extreme with this the for sure i'm on the other side of where most people are

Speaker 1 most people are like oh my god look what he's doing

Speaker 1 and i'm like no he needs to do that like more. We need more of that.
Not 140. We need like fucking 410%.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 We need you to ruin everything they're doing unless they're willing to play completely fair, which appears to be what he's doing.

Speaker 1 You know, and that's going to cause, that's going to, you have to be willing as an American to eat a little bit of that. You have to be willing to say, hey, I'm going to fucking pursue this

Speaker 1 and see this through for the next fucking six months or whatever it takes so that my kids don't have to deal with this bullshit. Because guess what? Chinese people are doing that over in China.

Speaker 1 Bro, they're fucking, I mean, they're hunkering down as much as they can, but they're bought into it mainly because if they're not, they get killed. You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1 But like they're in on it. You know what I'm saying? No, bro.

Speaker 1 They've had, China's had so many generations now of this kind of government to where the people have grown up in it and they think it's the only way. They don't understand.

Speaker 1 You know, their culture is very disciplined and they're very fucking organized and they're very intelligent and they're very loyal. And which I can't blame them for.

Speaker 1 That's how you're supposed to do it. We just haven't been doing that because they've been subverting our entire

Speaker 1 education system, culture, news, media, politics to their advantage. And that's why things, and by the way, they're not the only country that's been doing that.
Israel's been doing that too. Okay.

Speaker 1 So we have to cut out those influences in our country

Speaker 1 at any means. And the Trump administration hasn't done that yet.

Speaker 1 And, like, dude, if you really want to get people behind you and you really want people to understand, then go all the way here and say, Hey, no more fucking money to any of these fucks until we're good.

Speaker 1 And then people are going to be like, Oh, all right,

Speaker 1 you know, but there's just all this, you know,

Speaker 1 this Israel shit's really losing a lot of a lot. Trump doesn't understand how much of the base he's losing over the every time he brings up the vaccines and the Israel shit.

Speaker 1 Yeah, just wanted to throw this in here real quick, finishing up. To your point, 2020 to 2024.
I mean, people smelled blood with all the bullshit we had going on, and they fucking went all in.

Speaker 1 I mean, this is SP.

Speaker 1 Again, you zoom in on fucking 2020 to 2024, you see the fucking boom, right? Same thing on the NASDAQ, same thing on the Dow, right? I mean, so,

Speaker 1 bro, yes, but

Speaker 1 You're not going to convince people, they're just going to have to wait and see.

Speaker 1 Yeah, because it's above most people's ability to strategically think to understand what the play is actually going on here. Like, what's going on? Like, they can't understand it.

Speaker 1 And then they have the media, who's partially funded by both Israel and fucking China in different ways

Speaker 1 saying completely different messages. My, my, my main thing here for everybody is just to see look at who's bitching about it

Speaker 1 okay these are the same people that told you covet was going to fucking kill you and you you're a bad person for you know breathing fucking air it's the same people who told you that if you didn't post a black square you were a fucking bigot it's the same people that you know if you didn't post the ukraine flag you were a traitor It's the same people that said, you know, Trump is a

Speaker 1 Russian agent. You know, it's the same, it's the same, it's the same, it's the same.
So why are you listening to those people at all? About this.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 1 They don't know what the fuck they're talking about. These people hear things and then repeat things.
That's all it is. They don't comprehend any of it.

Speaker 1 And good times make weak men. And that generation

Speaker 1 did what the fuck they did. And these hard times are going to make strong men.

Speaker 1 We're already seeing that with a lot of the young Gen Z men who are completely rejecting leftist ideology and political correctness and embracing truth and masculinity and being a strong, financially independent gentleman warrior of an American citizen.

Speaker 1 So

Speaker 1 they are in, listen, it's the cycle. It's an 80-year cycle.
There's a whole book about it called The Fourth Turning.

Speaker 1 There's another book about it called Hard Times Make Weak Men by Stefan and Ario. Like the

Speaker 1 those are the weak men.

Speaker 1 And I hate to say it, you know, but we have a generation that are they're pissed off that their investment account is now getting fucked for decisions that they did or didn't make that have made the country harder for everybody.

Speaker 1 And that's a reality. Okay, so I'm not trying to hear that shit.
That's real, man. Guys, jumping on this conversation, let us know what you guys think down in the comments.

Speaker 1 With that being said, let's go cruise some of these comments.

Speaker 1 You're still getting kind of lit up a little bit. For what?

Speaker 1 Well, let's see. LV Pierced says the amount of shit DJ got for Days of Thunder, and you're telling us Andy has never seen Lion King.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Because Lion King is for babies. No, Andy, no, it's not.
Lion King is for children. It's not, Andy.

Speaker 1 Is Lion King an animated film? Yeah. It's for children.
Well, I mean, so is Sausage Party.

Speaker 1 That's for children. children.
No, it's no fuck. It's not.

Speaker 1 Have you ever seen Sausage Party? I don't care. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I don't give a fuck. Is that maximum today? Got it.
Yeah. Yeah, so I don't care what the fuck you think about me not seeing Lion King.
All right. Yeah.
I'm just saying, getting some, some.

Speaker 1 Well, it is what it is. You should watch it.
You come back crying. Like, you'll be singing Circle of Life and shit.
Like, it'd be great. Be what? Singing Circle of Life.
What's that?

Speaker 1 The main theme song. It's the Circle of Life.

Speaker 1 Listen, I only watch movies where people die.

Speaker 1 People die in fun. No, animals die.
Animals die. Yeah, I'm talking about people.
Oh. Okay.
All right.

Speaker 1 Next one

Speaker 1 on that topic.

Speaker 1 Just a nobody. 74 says, B.S.
Andy doesn't have fun. I see, but you drive to work every day.
You have fun every day. That's a fact.

Speaker 1 That's a fact. You do have fun.

Speaker 1 That's a fact.

Speaker 1 I have alpha fun. You have an alpha fun.

Speaker 1 Alpha fun. All right.

Speaker 1 Last comment comes from at Mike Lowry, the Mike Lowry one.

Speaker 1 I don't even like driving nice cars, bro. I just do it because nobody else does it.

Speaker 1 You know what I'm saying? Because I'm alpha. Got it.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Got it.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 1 This last comment comes from at Mike Lowry, the Mike Lowry one.

Speaker 1 Fauci needs to predict a wood chipper in this future.

Speaker 1 Yeah, or we need to predict one in the future. I think it's visualize it.
Yeah, we need

Speaker 1 to manifest a wood chipper in the future. That's how that works.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 We can't wait for everybody to figure it out. We'll do that at the camp.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Guys, we're approaching.

Speaker 1 I can't wait for the part where we cry together. Yeah.

Speaker 1 That's what I want. I want to, you know, in the hot tub.

Speaker 1 Naked.

Speaker 1 Guys, we appreciate you. Yeah.
For being real-ass naked fans. Yeah.
Yeah, man. All right, well, let's keep the cruise cruising.

Speaker 1 Headline number two. This is an interesting one.
China, for some reason, has been on the topic.

Speaker 1 And so, you know, there's a lot of interesting stuff happening.

Speaker 1 But let's go check over on Ukraine because there's been an interesting update over there.

Speaker 1 Beijing is allowing Putin to its recruit Chinese fighters to join its war in Ukraine. And 155 have already signed up.
So apparently, these are new reports coming out from Ukraine

Speaker 1 that Beijing is allowing Putin to recruit Chinese soldiers to fight against Ukraine. Vladimir Zelensky has claimed.

Speaker 1 Ukrainian president says that 155 have already signed to battle in Moscow's forces after revealing that his country's forces have captured two Chinese men fighting for the invading power.

Speaker 1 He told reporters in Kiev,

Speaker 1 Kiev,

Speaker 1 that Russia was recruiting Chinese citizens via social media and that the country's officials were aware of that. So there was this video that got released and started circulating around.

Speaker 1 Let's check it out.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so apparently six of uh they've encountered six Chinese soldiers two have been captured that video was allegedly one of the ones that uh

Speaker 1 was captured not sure what the fuck he was saying

Speaker 1 you know that'd be scary

Speaker 1 getting captured by people that don't speak your language and then trying to communicate with them yeah

Speaker 1 yeah that'd be i mean and he looked pretty fucking terrified i'm not gonna lie um but yeah the the war leader added that Ukraine was trying to assess whether the recruits were receiving instructions from Beijing.

Speaker 1 The Chinese issue is serious. There were 155 people with names and passport details who are fighting against Ukrainians on the territory of Ukraine, Zelensky told generalists during a brief

Speaker 1 in Kiev. So

Speaker 1 he's also saying

Speaker 1 that Ukraine had information that there were significantly more Chinese citizens still among the Russian ranks, adding, we are currently clarifying all the facts. So

Speaker 1 it's interesting because, again, like, you know, China, they're not new to this, right? Like, they involve themselves in everything without directly saying they're involved in everything. Yeah.

Speaker 1 They got hands in all the buckets, right? You mentioned a couple in the last couple of slides about, you know, the

Speaker 1 education, the media.

Speaker 1 And, you know, the craziest thing to me is, like, I feel like a lot of people all go, oh, China's our biggest threat. China's our biggest threat.
But it's like, it's so, it's interesting because,

Speaker 1 you know, every single day, more and more stuff is coming out. This new headline, this, the story is starting to get some, get a lot of attention.

Speaker 1 This headline reads, why farmer Green Beret congressman wants to ban GNC protein powder and vitamins from U.S. military bases.
Have you seen this? Yeah. So this is interesting.

Speaker 1 Let's dive into this a little bit.

Speaker 1 A popular American wellness store could be the next target of Congress as companies with links to Beijing face the wrath of the Republican-controlled U.S. government.

Speaker 1 General Nutrition Centers, better known as GNC, is a manufacturer and retailer that sells health, nutrition, and fitness-related ingestible products like powders, vitamins, supplements, herbs, minerals, and energy products.

Speaker 1 Headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,

Speaker 1 it was initially an American company, but since 2020, it has been a wholly owned subsidiary of Harbin Pharmaceutical Group, which is a pharmaceutical manufacturer owned by the Chinese Communist Party.

Speaker 1 With this revelation, a North Carolina congressman and former Green Beret told DailyMail.com he is now making it his mission to get all the GNCs removed from military installations.

Speaker 1 Let's check this clip out.

Speaker 8 I'm here at Fort Bragg, the center of the universe for our special operations forces.

Speaker 8 And earlier this week, I introduced the Military Installation Retail Security Act because we found out that GNC is wholly owned by the Chinese Communist Party and is operating over 80 facilities across our military bases in the United States.

Speaker 8 That's got to stop. But here on Fort Bragg, there's not just one,

Speaker 8 not two, not three,

Speaker 8 but four locations right here on Fort Bragg alone. Maybe that's so the Chinese Communist Party can better serve our most elite special operators.

Speaker 8 If I have anything to say about this, this, and I do, they're not going to be here for long.

Speaker 1 Now, the implications of, you know,

Speaker 1 well, guys, I mean,

Speaker 1 I happen to know a guy

Speaker 1 who happens to own

Speaker 1 one of the largest independent American-owned sports supplement retailers.

Speaker 1 I know a guy.

Speaker 1 The guy's name is me.

Speaker 1 So why don't you guys give me a call and work some shit out?

Speaker 1 Good old supplement superstores on every military base. Sounds good.
And I promise you, I will serve the military.

Speaker 1 We won't do whatever they're doing that you don't like, which I'm not even sure about what it is yet.

Speaker 1 The point of the matter is, is why the fuck are you guys working with China instead of working with American companies like us? Should have been that way. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Now, I mean, what they're concerned about is

Speaker 1 the collection of data whenever a veteran or member of the military purchases something from a GNC on the base. Again, these are Fort Bragg.
Again, that's like the fucking hub of special operations.

Speaker 1 These guys are all using protein. They're all taking supplements and stuff like that.
Like they go to those retail locations. Where does that information go? You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1 It clearly goes to China. You know what I'm saying? It's like, I mean, like, I can understand the concern behind that.
Like, that would be a major concern.

Speaker 1 Oh, it's an easy solution. Get them out.
Kick Kick GNC off and call up this YouTuber podcaster, dude. That's it.
You know, and

Speaker 1 we'll handle this business. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I mean, yeah. I mean, it seems like a very easy,

Speaker 1 easy, easy fix.

Speaker 1 It sure does. And by the way, we'll do a far better job because we are far better.

Speaker 1 And I'll fucking right it, walk right into GNC's headquarters and tell them that to their fucking face. So

Speaker 1 it is what it is. It is what it is.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Now, officials with the Department of Health and Human Services and the FBI tell Daily Mail they are cracking down on any company that has links to the CCP and supplies Americans with food, pharmaceuticals, vitamins, cosmetics, and other things that go into our bodies.

Speaker 1 That would make sense. It would be very easy for them to, I don't know,

Speaker 1 do stuff.

Speaker 1 You know, I will say this, and I think this is not a, for those of you that don't understand the supplement industry

Speaker 1 i don't think there's any reason to panic or anything most of those products that they sell in there outside of their own label which i'm not sure about are just you know they're they're smaller supplement companies um that just sell their products through gnc so it doesn't mean that those companies are bad or compromised right yeah most of those products are made you know under certain regulations uh here in the united states and that's what they're selling so like i you know as much as i'd like to say ah don't don't go in there,

Speaker 1 it's not the truth. Now, like I said, for me, I don't see that being the issue or the threat.
What I see being the issue is just, again, what information are they able to collect?

Speaker 1 Yeah, you know what I'm saying? To me, that's what poses a threat. Yeah, well, I mean, Pat Harrigan, call me, bro.
We'll fix it. I'll work with you hand in hand.

Speaker 1 I'll show you exactly what we can do to fix it. That'd be sick.
We'll get it fixed in fucking six months. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Why does Linsky look like he's grabbing some boobs? Because I don't know.

Speaker 1 It's just interesting, man. Bro, go back to Z.
Go back to Z? Yeah.

Speaker 1 Like,

Speaker 1 does his face make you angry when you look at him?

Speaker 1 He just looks like a real-life South Park character.

Speaker 1 You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1 Hmm.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Who do you like better, Putin or Z?

Speaker 1 Oh, come on, bro. You know, I'm a Russian asset, bro.
Yeah, me too. I like Putin better.

Speaker 1 Just because Putin seems to just be cooler, bro. Like, this dude goes fucking like fishing with his shirt off and shit.
You know what I'm saying? Like,

Speaker 1 catches fish barehanded. That's alpha male shit.

Speaker 1 Z ain't catching fish. You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1 He's catching

Speaker 1 barbecuing cats. That's what I was going to say.

Speaker 1 And fucking quack whacks. I'm not a fan, bro.

Speaker 1 I'm not a fan. I'm not a fan.
They eat ducks. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
I like ducks. Can't trust nobody that eats ducks.
Yeah, they eat cats, too,

Speaker 1 teeth. You don't like that, do you? Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 So we can't

Speaker 1 get down with that. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Look, dude, you know,

Speaker 1 if Z rides it too long, bro, it's going to turn into a bad situation for Chinese people, and there will be. consequences.
Yeah, it just seems to be like a lot of scrutiny.

Speaker 1 They don't have the leverage in this deal. And they have enough leverage to cause a little pain, but they don't have enough leverage to win this.
And

Speaker 1 it is what it is.

Speaker 1 It's going to embarrass him, which, dude, here's what we're dealing with.

Speaker 1 We're dealing with two guys who have massive egos, who the worst thing in the world to them is to not be embarrassed, which means one of them is going to ride it all the way down to the bottom.

Speaker 1 And the one with the leverage is going to win, and the Americans have the leverage. And that's what it is.
100%, man.

Speaker 1 Guys, jumping on this conversation let us know down in the comments what you guys think with that being said let's get to our final set of headlines let's do some trolling troll troll man the communists got lit up the who the communists these crazy leftists dude these last couple of days they've been getting lit up really yeah man it's been it's been about time been pretty bad uh by who by by regular americans man good let's check it out uh the first one uh shut your mouth tim walls heckled and booed by military veterans in minnesota over his stolen valor you see these videos going around nope yep so tampon Tim shut your fucking weird looking mouth shut your sperm carpet yeah that's what I call it your sperm receptacle

Speaker 1 that was a good one that's good yeah I thought of that all on my own

Speaker 1 yeah right now that's good

Speaker 1 Yeah, you got heckled, man, because he's been lying, bro. It's coming out.
So Walls never deployed. He abandoned his battalion after they were deployed to Iraq so he could run for Congress.

Speaker 1 Tim Walls introduced himself at a 2006 veterans event as a retired Command Sergeant Major, which is a lie. Here's a clip.

Speaker 1 I'm Tim Walls, and I'm running for Congress in Minnesota's first congressional district. I'm a retired Command Sergeant Major.
I spent 24 years in the Army National Guard.

Speaker 1 I spent the better part of two decades as a public school teacher. I'm a small business owner.
I'm a father, and I'm a husband. I intend to come here to Washington to provide authentic leadership.

Speaker 1 I mean, he looked actually, I think he looks more

Speaker 1 Homo sapien there than

Speaker 1 he does now.

Speaker 1 You know, I don't know. I can't comment on that.
You can. Okay, well, he always has looked the same to me.

Speaker 1 Same level of Homo sapien. Yeah.
Bro, look. If I saw that dude, what is that, 2006? That was 2006, yeah.
Yeah. I mean.
When they still had dicks. Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1 I was like, Wait till I get in office,

Speaker 1 just wait. All you kids, you still have dongs.
I'm gonna cut them off. Yeah, not for long.
Yeah, you got dongs, not for long. Yeah,

Speaker 1 Tim Walls.

Speaker 1 No more dick cheese. Anyway, they got in Minnesota.
I don't know. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah. No, that's Wisconsin.
Oh, okay. Yeah.
Same thing. No.

Speaker 1 Wisconsin is way better. Is it? Yeah.
Than Minnesota? Oh.

Speaker 1 Well, yeah, so he lied about. They're the only people that drink more than people in St.
Louis. In Wisconsin, they drink a lot more.
Oh, fuck, yeah. Really? They like to drink.

Speaker 1 They like to drink. They like to ride snowmobiles.
Eat cheese. I guess.
They like Packers football.

Speaker 1 You know, they got a lot of lakes. You know, Minnesota's got a lot of lakes.

Speaker 1 It's nice up there, man. Is it? Yeah.
I don't think I've ever been. Yeah.
It's nice. I want to go to the Harley spot, the Harley headquarters up there.
That's in Milwaukee, though.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's so nice that people don't don't pay attention to the politics, apparently.

Speaker 1 They're out there busy shredding the

Speaker 1 shredding the gnar. Shredding the gnar.
That's what they're doing up there. Yep.
Shredding the gnar.

Speaker 1 Gnarly shreds.

Speaker 1 And they let fucking Homo sapiens in.

Speaker 1 That's where it all went south, bro. I'm convinced.
But

Speaker 1 nevertheless,

Speaker 1 you know, he lied about his rank in 2009 in a farewell message to soldiers actually deploying to Iraq, he claimed that he was again a retired Command Sergeant Major as he sends a farewell message to soldiers deploying.

Speaker 1 But nevertheless, he decided to do this little event

Speaker 1 and a lot of veterans showed up. And here's the exchange.

Speaker 1 Welcome, welcome to the Capitol. It's a great venture.

Speaker 1 Sir,

Speaker 1 you're welcome to come. Let me finish.

Speaker 1 Cowper, Let me finish.

Speaker 1 He doesn't have fucking motherfucker. Shut your fucking mouth.

Speaker 1 Hey, there's some passion in the middle.

Speaker 1 Hey, oh, there's some passion in here. That's what I like to see.
Shut your fucking mouth.

Speaker 1 I mean, look, man, you know,

Speaker 1 those people have every right to be upset. You know, you lied about your fucking service.
A lot of these guys lost their buddies, lost their friends, their family.

Speaker 1 And quite honestly, a lot of them are realizing that what they lost them for wasn't actually what they were told they were losing them for.

Speaker 1 So not only was the mission that they went for not the exact mission they were told they were going on, which has caused them to all feel a certain way.

Speaker 1 They're proud of what they did, but they're not proud of who they did or why they did it for. I mean, there's a lot of things that go into these people's mind.
And then you have this fucking guy,

Speaker 1 you know, pretending he's one of them. Yeah, right.
You know, even though he fucking abandoned them before the deployment and then goes votes for them for them to be deployed. It's crazy shit.

Speaker 1 It's crazy shit. But he wasn't the only one.
Let's go to CNN. Check in with CNN.
They had a hot little exchange as well.

Speaker 1 CNN Scott Jennings takes personal shot at ex-MSNBC host Tiffany Cross and he did on air debate. How relevant are you?

Speaker 1 This was good.

Speaker 1 Scott Jennings, he's like their, you know, Republican dissident, basically. They bring him in.
He's very smart, very educated, very intellectual,

Speaker 1 very witty as well.

Speaker 1 But he got into a heated back and forth exchange with Tiffany Cross on a panel discussion Wednesday night during which the pro-Trump commentator reminded the former MSNBC host that she was let go from her gig at Comcast on Cable Network.

Speaker 1 Check it out. Man, you cannot just go and say, I like it.
It's mine now. It doesn't work that way.
Well, that is what they're trying to do.

Speaker 1 And in this new world order yeah absolutely when they're looking at greenland and say i like it i want to take it for mine that is a very colonized art of you are you

Speaker 1 have never ever said we're going to go to greenland and quote colonize it or something about you you're not a member of government so you're irrelevant at that point i'm talking about the president of the united states doing you got fired from your job you were

Speaker 1 mine

Speaker 1 if you want to engage in personal insults

Speaker 1 what you lack in the legitimate point you make up for in personal impulse

Speaker 1 impersonal insults. The point I am making is in this new world order, we are looking at countries, whether or not they're an adversary or ally, it is being determined on what kind of deal we can get.

Speaker 1 And we cannot govern. We cannot legislate that way.
We are increasingly isolated on the world stage.

Speaker 1 So, if you want to engage in personal insults, if I were you, I would reserve that for your party who are increasingly isolated. This will

Speaker 1 be outside of the United States.

Speaker 1 Yes, let's reserve the personal insults for one party or the other. Like, get the the fuck out of here.
That's all they got. Well, you started it.
Yeah, and not only that,

Speaker 1 why the fuck are you arguing against the strategic dominance of the United States when you're a fucking American? What are you fucking stupid? Makes no sense. Yeah.
Makes no sense.

Speaker 1 Let's let Russia come take fucking Greenland or China come take Greenland instead. Let's let them do that.
That'd be fine. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I'm sure the people of Greenland would appreciate it. If anybody's going to colonize it, why not be us? You know what I'm saying? That's my position.
It's a strategic geographical play.

Speaker 1 Okay. It's about, she's right.

Speaker 1 She says, oh, the new world order, this, that. Yeah, you're right about that.
That's why it's more important to fucking make sure that people can't come here and do things to you and your family.

Speaker 1 Like, why would you argue against that? Because you're stupid. Real talk.
Like, you're so caught up in your political correct resistance to, quote unquote, the bad guy that you can't even realize.

Speaker 1 a strategic move that's going to benefit you and your family. Okay.

Speaker 1 You can't argue with that. No.
No.

Speaker 1 I mean, it was kind of a low blow what he said, you know, but it was funny. She said it first.
Well,

Speaker 1 you're not even in the office no more. He's like, well, I mean, you got fired from the job.
How relevant are you? Yeah. I mean, fuck.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Notice how she puts her hands right up in his face, too. Yeah, like, dude, like, bro.
Listen, lady, you got. You got got it.
It is what it is.

Speaker 1 Imagine someone putting their hands in your fucking face like that.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I know.

Speaker 1 I know. It's bullshit.
But you know who else is learning that lesson? Anderson Cooper and good old burn dog, Bernie Sanders. Were they getting into it? No, not them.

Speaker 1 They just got fact-checked by one of their own. Yeah, Anderson Cooper gets brutal, work, woke, fact-checked live on air while introducing civil rights attorney.

Speaker 1 Anderson Cooper suffered an embarrassing moment as he hosted a town hall event for Bernie Sanders, where he misgendered a civil rights attorney.

Speaker 1 Let's check this clip out. Paul, we're back with Senator Bernie Sanders.
I want to introduce Grace Thomas. She's a local civil rights attorney.
She's a Democrat, Grace.

Speaker 1 They say them pronouns, actually. Thank you.
Oh.

Speaker 1 Good evening, Senator Sanders.

Speaker 1 Polling and turnout data indicate that men of all racial demographics are turning away from the Democratic Party.

Speaker 1 But of course. Wait, did you see Bernie's face?

Speaker 1 They created that.

Speaker 1 Look at his face.

Speaker 1 What the fuck is even? Bro, even Bernie doesn't

Speaker 1 fucking like, dude, he even knows his bullshit. Dude, that's funny.
Well, I'll tell you what, dude, there's times where I like Bernie Sanders. Same.

Speaker 1 Yeah, there's like these times where I'm like, bro, Bernie's pretty funny. He's got some good shit to say.
And then there's times where I'm like, this guy is smoking fucking crap, bro.

Speaker 1 That's so funny.

Speaker 1 First of all, like, and the way she said it was like, you should know. Yeah, right.

Speaker 1 You should know. They them.
Actually.

Speaker 1 They them energy they you gotta listen lady if you want to get they them you got to cut all your hair off diet blue yeah and then you'll get yourself a couple face piercings you couldn't tell get yourself some unemployable tattoos on your fucking forehead and you know and then and then the the stereotypical glasses you know the rachel maddow glasses and you wear all that together and everybody will get your pronouns right yeah wouldn't wouldn't wouldn't be misgendered for sure

Speaker 1 fucking they them

Speaker 1 they them look at his face

Speaker 1 what the fuck is they them about you? There's one of you. There's just one.
Okay. Now, you can argue.

Speaker 1 Yeah, there's, I mean, you're pretty big. You know, there might be a one and a half.

Speaker 1 But, like, bro, they, that, like, who really thought this up?

Speaker 1 Like, they, them.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Like, I can understand that. They all are retarded.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 God, dude.

Speaker 1 Like, I can understand the, you know, a man wanting to be called a woman and a woman wanting to be called a man.

Speaker 1 It It doesn't make you a man or a woman, but if you want to play dress up and pretend, that's cool. Nobody else has to pretend with you.

Speaker 1 It's mental illness. You're not fooling me.
It's attention, too. I don't think you're fooling yourself.
You know, what is they them? You're fooling Bernie.

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 1 It's they, them, actually. She's got to be like the meme of fucking

Speaker 1 April. Like, this has to be the meme of April.
Well,

Speaker 1 yeah, it's a good one.

Speaker 1 They, them, actually.

Speaker 1 Yeah, man, but that's not even the lot.

Speaker 1 Dude, his fucking face is pretty funny. But that's not good.
That is a good face, dude. Dude, that's great.

Speaker 1 But it doesn't just stop there. If you had to caption his face, what would it be? What the hell is even that?

Speaker 1 I don't know what he's thinking, bro, but whatever it is, I bet if he said it, it'd be funny as fuck. Dude, that's like, I mean, because here's it.
Bernie's at the old man age. I don't give a fuck.

Speaker 1 You can say you can do zero consequences, right?

Speaker 1 He just had a slip up there, man.

Speaker 1 I just never understood the they them thing, bro.

Speaker 1 Like, like, it doesn't make sense.

Speaker 1 They them.

Speaker 1 Like, what, how, what, what level of mental illness do you have to have to decide that you are multiple people?

Speaker 1 Like, isn't that a, isn't that schizophrenia? Yeah. Like, you ain't seen the movie Split? No, that's a good movie.
It's a great movie. Now, we we can agree on that.
It's a great movie.

Speaker 1 That's a good movie. Yeah, you know, but I mean, that's what you're doing.
Yeah. And he belonged in the mental institution.
Bro, what's worse is like the Xerzes and shit.

Speaker 1 Like, to me, that's a whole nother dimension. You know what I'm saying? Like, what does that mean?

Speaker 1 Bro,

Speaker 1 there used to be mental asylums that were filled with people like this. Getting the bottom.
The world was better. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's like completely like inverse, you know what I'm saying? The amount of hospitals compared to the amount of people that need them.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's fucked up. It's they them, actually.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 1 that's not all that's fucking getting in the ringer right now. All right, because I'm sure Bernie's going to get some claps off of this.
But

Speaker 1 got to go to Mark Zuckerberg. He's in the fire.
Oh, he's getting it now, too. He's getting it too.
Mark Zuckerberg faces potential breakup of his meta empire, an FTC antitrust trial.

Speaker 1 This is a big one. It's a big one.
It's big.

Speaker 1 It's big. Well, I mean, look, bro, they have a monopoly.
I'm not trying to be an asshole towards fucking any of these guys.

Speaker 1 But look, bro, you know, they're,

Speaker 1 this happened in the 80s with telecommunications, okay? And they deregulated it and split it up. There's too much power.
When you have technology conglomerates like Google, Meta,

Speaker 1 you know,

Speaker 1 fucking the new ones, the fucking,

Speaker 1 what's the AI company? Snap Talks and the fucking TikTok. What's the AI company? NVIDIA.

Speaker 1 The fucking you, these people control

Speaker 1 they control the public square. Right.
Okay.

Speaker 1 We couldn't have anticipated 30 years ago that

Speaker 1 every communication and every

Speaker 1 you know, form of community would be controlled by so few people. Okay.

Speaker 1 and these people have become incredibly rich to where some of these companies are worth in the trillions of dollars all right that's never happened before in history and

Speaker 1 that power structure is very dangerous as we saw during covet

Speaker 1 where they all coordinated they all linked up they propagated wrong information that cost people their lives

Speaker 1 They've interfered with elections.

Speaker 1 And unfortunately, you know, the reality is, is that

Speaker 1 at the upper ends of capitalism, it becomes unethical. And that's the truth.

Speaker 1 And you can be a capitalist and understand that there is ethical capitalism and unethical capitalism. And when we cross the line, when the power

Speaker 1 starts to become so great that really, you know,

Speaker 1 everybody's at the mercy of these people to enforce our quote-unquote rights. um

Speaker 1 you know across these platforms and well that's why it's like that they allow them to get that. Oh, it's been done intentionally.
100%. Like, that's why they're that big.

Speaker 1 Is so they could fucking, instead of having to worry about reaching out to 20 social media companies, they just got to reach out to fucking three people. Yeah.
And it's done. No, it's intentional.

Speaker 1 Yeah. It's fucked up.
But I mean, they're facing, they're at risk of losing a lot.

Speaker 1 Because right now, Meta is worth about $1.3 trillion.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 they're estimating their ad just on ad revenue alone in 2025, they're estimating to be about $32 billion just in ad revenue. You know what I'm saying? So, I mean, like, they're definitely.

Speaker 1 Not only that, like, they control markets by what they allow to be advertised. Exactly.
Exactly. They don't just control speech, they control commerce too.

Speaker 1 And when you throw Amazon in there, Amazon has completely decimated the mom and pop small businesses.

Speaker 1 So, you know, and people say, oh, well, you know, that's free enterprise. You know, it is, but it's not when they're not paying their portion of the taxes or they're controlling too much power

Speaker 1 to where they can literally regulate what's bought and sold, what is said or not said, observe these people in real time and abuse their technology, which we've been shown that they do over and over again through the usage of fake bots, you know, what Snowden talks about, you know, the tracking, the using.

Speaker 1 The Patriot Act to spy on its own citizens through their device cameras. Like, bro, it's out of control.
It is.

Speaker 1 It is. And the interesting thing is, like, this antitrust case is going through.
They're in the trial.

Speaker 1 And at the same time,

Speaker 1 a big what-whoop come out.

Speaker 1 And it has to do with China again. Like I said, I don't know if I mean, that wasn't my plan to have China be the theme of the show today, but they are.

Speaker 1 Whistleblowers tell Senate committee that Meta undermined U.S. national security to cozy up to China.
So this just came out.

Speaker 1 A whistleblower on Wednesday told congressional lawmakers that Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and other executives lied to Congress as Meta actively tried to help China develop artificial intelligence in an effort to win favor with Beijing.

Speaker 1 Sarah Wynne Williams, who detailed her experience at Meta in the scathing memoir Careless People, testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Crime and Counterterrorism that she witnessed Zuckerberg and other executives repeatedly undermine U.S.

Speaker 1 national security and betray American values.

Speaker 1 Let's watch the introduction. I got the clip, a couple clips here.
This is Senator Josh Hawley

Speaker 1 basically introducing her. Check this out.
And this is a hearing that Facebook has tried desperately to prevent. Facebook is one of the most powerful companies in the world.

Speaker 1 It is one of the most powerful companies in the history of the world, and they have stopped at absolutely nothing to prevent today's testimony. They've absolutely gone to war to try to prevent it.

Speaker 1 Our witness today is a whistleblower and not just a whistleblower, but a longtime executive at Facebook. She worked directly with Mark Zuckerberg and Cheryl

Speaker 1 Sanders and

Speaker 1 the Facebook brass. She was a part of the Facebook brass and they have gone scorched earth to prevent her from telling what she knows.
They've sued her. They have sought a gag order against her.

Speaker 1 They have begged courts to take her book off of the shelves. They tried to get it stopped from being printed in the first place.
They have threatened her, get this, with $50,000

Speaker 1 in punitive damages every time she mentions Facebook in public.

Speaker 1 $50,000

Speaker 1 every time she mentions Facebook in public, even if the statements that she is making are true. And even as we sit here today, Facebook is attempting her total and complete financial ruin.

Speaker 1 They are attempting to destroy her personally. They are attempting to destroy her reputation.

Speaker 1 And I think the question is, why?

Speaker 1 Why is it that Facebook is so desperate to prevent this witness from telling what she knows? Well, let's dive into it. This is our opening statement.

Speaker 9 During my time at Meta, company executives lied about what they were doing with the Chinese Communist Party to employees, shareholders, Congress, and the American public.

Speaker 9 I sit before this committee today to set the record straight about these illegal and dangerous activities.

Speaker 9 Meta's dishonesty started with the betrayal of core American values. Mark Zuckerberg pledged himself a free speech champion.

Speaker 9 Yet I witnessed Meta work hand in glove with the Chinese Communist Party to construct and test custom-built censorship tools that silenced and censored their critics.

Speaker 9 When Beijing demanded that Facebook delete the account of a prominent Chinese dissident living on American soil, they did it.

Speaker 9 And then lied to Congress when asked about about the incident in a Senate hearing.

Speaker 9 The willingness to censor was not the only troubling thing I witnessed.

Speaker 9 I watched as executives decided to provide the Chinese Communist Party with access to Meta user data, including that of Americans.

Speaker 9 Meta does not dispute these facts. They can't.
I have the documents.

Speaker 9 As recently as this Monday, they claimed that they do not operate their services in China. Another lie.

Speaker 9 In fact, they began offering products and services in China as early as 2014.

Speaker 1 That hasn't stopped.

Speaker 9 Their own SEC filings from last year show that China is now Meta's second biggest market.

Speaker 1 So she's blowing the whistle, man.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's interesting that a citizen,

Speaker 1 a woman who's from New Zealand, has more courage than any Americans that happen to work in that office and protecting American values and interests more than anybody that works in that office.

Speaker 1 That's that's interesting. You know, we haven't seen American whistleblowers from the CIA or the FBI or,

Speaker 1 you know, any of these other big companies come out. We've seen a couple, but not many.
Not enough. But then, but then, and these people are supposed to have taken an oath to

Speaker 1 this country, right? And here we have a woman who is from a different country who is doing the duty of American citizens to look out for American interests. That's interesting to me.

Speaker 1 For sure, dude. I mean, it's going to be interesting to see what accidentally happens to her.

Speaker 1 You know what I'm saying? Well, she's got to be careful, bro. Yeah.
She's got to be, and not because I think Meta is going to do anything.

Speaker 1 China is going to do anything. Listen, it disrupts power structure for them to deregulate these tech companies.
Right. All right.
It crumbles. Yes.

Speaker 1 They do not have the government has figured out how to weaponize social media and the internet against us. Not just our government, all governments.
And

Speaker 1 these social media companies have to work with all these different countries to be allowed to operate. And what did they say that China was what? Their second biggest or their biggest? Second biggest.

Speaker 1 Second biggest user base. All right.

Speaker 1 So

Speaker 1 these guys you know when when a little favor here and there comes through you know and you know they do it

Speaker 1 and they shouldn't be and so um i don't know you know i i think we all know what needs to happen to all of these these big anybody who's been alive who's who's older than 40 understands that these monopolies and power structures have to be deregulated and split up.

Speaker 1 And until they are, we won't even even have a thriving economy the way that we've always had it. Our economy depends on what Mark Zuckerberg decides.

Speaker 1 Like, he decides what ads run, what ads don't run, what companies get to run ads, right? How is that? I thought we had free enterprise here. I thought we had free market.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 It's a private. Well, you're arguing against it because he has, yeah, we don't allow monopolies.
Right. You know what I'm saying? Like, is it okay that

Speaker 1 Amazon is a multi-you know, trillion-dollar brand in terms of worth?

Speaker 1 What's Amazon worth?

Speaker 1 They're probably close to a trillion dollars. Okay.

Speaker 1 No,

Speaker 1 $1.2 trillion. Okay, so

Speaker 1 $1.1?

Speaker 3 $9.2 trillion. Almost $2 trillion.

Speaker 1 Okay, so almost $2 trillion. All right.

Speaker 1 Do you think that it's okay that Amazon controls that much of the market?

Speaker 1 Do you think it's okay that every small business that used to operate independently now has to run through Amazon to even get any traction? And then Amazon's allowed to decide where that

Speaker 1 product ranks on its page or if they make a competitive product at a cheaper price to take away from that per like,

Speaker 1 how is that? Which they do. They do that all the time.

Speaker 1 So

Speaker 1 how

Speaker 1 is that what this country was intended to be? It's not. And nobody ever came in

Speaker 1 and really thought this through before they just ran with it. Or they thought it through and they did it on purpose.
And that's, you know, it could be one. I think it is.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 I mean, it appears to be. You know, when you look back

Speaker 1 on the

Speaker 1 Operation Lifelog and then look at the date that that ended, the CIA Operation Lifelog, and then look at the date that Facebook was founded.

Speaker 1 Just look at that. Yeah.

Speaker 1 You know, so what are we, what are we doing here, man? You know, of course these companies need to be broken up. It's good for the economy.
These dudes are still going to be rich as fuck.

Speaker 1 They want to hang on so they continue to have the God power that they've had.

Speaker 1 When in reality, bro, it's not going to make one fucking difference to any of these guys, to Zuckerberg or Bezos or fucking Elon or fucking any of them to have their businesses broken up into different aspects so that we can have a competitive marketplace.

Speaker 1 No, they've made it all already. Yeah.
I mean, yeah, dude. Like, it's power.
It's not money anymore. Yeah, right.

Speaker 1 You know, and that's where we get into, you know, these powerful people doing fucked up shit because they're bored and they can, you know, and

Speaker 1 I don't know, dude. Yeah, that's wild, man.
That's wild. Guys, jump in.

Speaker 1 I mean, bro, conservatives and people who are outside of the realm of public opinion are still dealing with massive censorship issues. Fuck, yeah.
Everything. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I don't know, dude. It's still going.

Speaker 1 Well, she's doing the right right thing. For sure.
And it's just, you know, it's frustrating that somebody from another country is doing it and not our own citizens. Yeah.
It's real, man.

Speaker 1 Guys, jump in on this conversation. Let us know down in the comments what you guys think, man.
With that being said, let's get to our final segment of the show, as always.

Speaker 1 We have thumbs up or dumb as fuck. This is where we bring in a

Speaker 1 topic. And it gets one of those two options.

Speaker 1 All right. You're going to like this one.
Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Our thumbs up or dumb as fuck headline reads: Barbie announces the creation of LeBron James's own

Speaker 1 Kim Basseter doll.

Speaker 1 I don't get it.

Speaker 1 So, what is it? All right, let's dive into it. In all likelihood, LeBron James will not be holding the Larry O'Brien trophy at the end of this year.

Speaker 1 However, if it's any consolation, he can comfort himself by holding the Kim Basseter Barbie doll created in his likeness.

Speaker 1 Barbie has announced the creation of a new doll in the likeness of NBA star LeBron James, the first of Mattel's new Kim Bastard doll series. So,

Speaker 1 Mattel, yeah, Mattel owns Barbie, the toy company. Who owns Mattel?

Speaker 1 Let's keep going. Yeah,

Speaker 1 here's the clip. Let's check it out.
This is LeBron getting and receiving his doll for the first time. Check it out.

Speaker 1 Oh, he's dope.

Speaker 1 Oh, that's so cool.

Speaker 1 This is so dang old cool.

Speaker 9 See what's promised me?

Speaker 1 It's in the baggie.

Speaker 1 Oh, my goodness.

Speaker 1 Just a kid from African got his beat headphones.

Speaker 1 Now we official. Yeah, hold on, let me fix this.

Speaker 1 Fix this bag.

Speaker 1 Headphones can stay right there.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Now we ready. I mean, he might need to do a little lifting legs, look a little skinny.
A little frailly, little fella.

Speaker 1 Nah, that's dope.

Speaker 1 I mean, at least they made him have a little sauce. You know what I'm saying? He has a little sauce.
I mean, LeBron does have some swag. He does.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 You know, he's eased up. He's eased up a little bit on his shit, too.
Just a little bit. You know, I don't see him reading the first page of any books lately.
You know?

Speaker 1 You know what's funny?

Speaker 1 I don't see him wearing the glasses and being like a the mr activist that he was in the past yeah the intellect activist maybe he's coming back around maybe i mean he has a merch on though so i mean yeah well dude you know there's a lot of dudes doing that yeah you know it's i i don't get it you know what's funny when he was when the doll was spending on that little fucking thing you know what it reminded me of some of those fucking funerals we've talked about with where they stand up

Speaker 1 that's the kind of funeral i want man is that what you want yeah i want i want you guys to stand me up and play some cool music, dress me up cool, stick my hand out. I can shake everybody's hand.

Speaker 1 You can make a little recording that says, hey, nice to meet you. Thanks for coming.

Speaker 1 Enjoy the show. You're right, right.
Don't be a hoe.

Speaker 1 Hey, man. It does look, I mean, look, it's pretty cool.
Look,

Speaker 1 it's a good action figure. That's cool.
So,

Speaker 1 Everett the Salesman, the doll also features gear from several of James's sponsors, such as Nike Dunk High Retro Shoes and Beats headphones. Yeah, I see those beats.

Speaker 1 So the doll is going to be available in person or online April 14th. They're retailing for $75.

Speaker 1 Dang. $75.
Now, I looked up some research here, the average Barbie doll, because I buy them for fucking Ryan, about 20 bucks. So, I mean, that's a decent little markup.
All right, that's cool.

Speaker 1 Nice little collection. What's your favorite Barbie?

Speaker 1 I know you fucking play.

Speaker 1 Andy, don't go there. Come on, dude.
There's nothing wrong with playing Barbies with your daughters. I don't do that.
That's a lie. I do tea time.
I'll do tea time.

Speaker 1 You do tea time, but you won't do Barbie? Yeah, I've been doing fucking Barbies. I'll do tea time, though.
That's because you get to eat something,

Speaker 1 isn't it? You get that little biscuits and shit. That's right.

Speaker 1 But it has a cool little case, you know. You don't fucking play.
You don't play Barbies, Ryan. No.

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 1 You make her play by herself. She plays with Addison.
Addison's not old enough to understand what she is. Oh, you'd be surprised.
Really? You'd be surprised. Yeah.
But,

Speaker 1 but yeah, I thought that was cool, man. It has a nice little case.
There was an update on the story, though. Yeah, all right, so you know, they got the LeBron doll out, right?

Speaker 1 And apparently, uh, you can now buy them in a set. He'll come with his white Barbie doll, uh, and they're gonna have a mixed little baby.
That's not, that's not, you're making this.

Speaker 1 But then he leaves, he leaves the mom, she becomes a single mother and has to go to Gort and get child support payments from LeBron doll.

Speaker 1 Where did you get all these pictures, bro?

Speaker 1 He lied to me.

Speaker 1 Oh, fuck, dude.

Speaker 1 He told me he was going to take care of me.

Speaker 1 Oh, man.

Speaker 1 That ain't my baby.

Speaker 1 You pull the string on the back. That's what he's saying.

Speaker 1 Oh, shit, man. Oh, bro, that's some funny shit.

Speaker 1 Hey, you know what, though? By all accounts, LeBron's a pretty good dude.

Speaker 1 Family guy. Listen, I don't like his politics.
I think he inserts himself and says some dumb shit. Yeah, he does.

Speaker 1 And I do think he, you know,

Speaker 1 when LeBron's being cool, he's cool. He's still cool.
He ain't no MJ, though.

Speaker 1 You young bucks that think that's a conversation, you're wrong.

Speaker 1 I don't care what stats say what.

Speaker 1 It's a different level. Yeah, he ain't MJ.

Speaker 1 See, we're going to start some comment wars right now. Yeah, they're going to get pissed.
Yeah, well, it's fucking people get mad about it, but it's true. It is true, it is true, dude.

Speaker 1 LeBron would say that

Speaker 1 LeBron would say that. I think he sniffed some paint because I think he's like,

Speaker 1 Well, he thinks he's got a little

Speaker 1 ego, you know. I'm saying, like, you know, high off on his own supply.
Does he? I think so. I think so.
I don't know if anybody's ever like those pants he's got on there.

Speaker 1 Those that's a fucking good look. I got a suit like that.
Barbie did too. Barbie liked him.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Oh, bro.

Speaker 1 That's some funny shit.

Speaker 1 Oh, man. There's something wrong with you, man.
Hey, man. LeBron's going to come kick your ass.

Speaker 1 You know, motherfuckers like 6'8, 30 bills.

Speaker 1 He's a big dude. Don't be worried about me.
Go worry about that little baby, baby. Baby mom.

Speaker 1 Dude. Out there.
Oh, man.

Speaker 1 But guys, Andy, that's all I got, man. Yeah.
I mean, what are we saying here? Thumbs up? Yeah, thumbs up. I think the doll was cool.
You know,

Speaker 1 a little much on the markup. You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1 But yeah, I mean, good for you.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Good for you.
I wonder if the doll is going to flop like he does.

Speaker 1 Oh,

Speaker 1 man. We got to see the sales.
We got to see the post-sales. We'll keep you guys up, man.

Speaker 1 Bro, there's something fucking wrong with you.

Speaker 1 All right. Yeah, but thumbs up.
It's cool. It's cool, man.
Yeah. All right.
Well, that's all I got, dude. All right.
That's all I got to you.

Speaker 1 Don't be a hoe. Share the show.
Yeah. Remember sleeping on the floor.
Now my druid box froze. Fuck up bowl.
Fuck up stove. Counted millions in the cold.
Bad bitch. Booted swole.
Got her own bank rope.

Speaker 1 Can't fold. That's a no.
Headshot. Case close.
