Take a look behind the curtain with a real whistle blower, an American patriot. Prepare to embrace the uncomfortable truth because this program has no time for comforting lies. Here is civil liberties enthusiast, Second Amendment defender, and recovering FBI agent Kyle Seraphin. Well hello my friends, welcome to the Kyle Seraphin show. Today is Thursday, it is October the 16th, and I don't know if we can top yesterday's show. I went back and watched the beginning of it just to see.
Did I announce that I was going to change the title of the episode after we ran it? And I did. And then we did change it, and I got to do an entire episode yesterday touching back at the base of the funniest headline that I've done at least this year. It's 2025. This is the most amusing headline. I just left it. I just left it there. Not their first gay rodeo. 50
years of queer cow folks. There's almost nothing more funny to me than being able to do an entire show about government that touches back on that. And then after we did the show, the director of the FBI and Todd Blanch and attorney general all got together in the White House and they said, Seraphin, that was a pretty funny show. But. Hold our beer.
We're going to do 1 better. We're going to do a real life episode of Parks and Recreation from the White House with Cash Patel as Tom Haverford, who was played by Aziz Ansari. And so I can't get out of my head now. I've wanted to look at this guy like a villain because he keeps saying crazy, stupid stuff and nonsensical. What I realize is that he is simply he's a cartoon that has already been played by another Indian actor, it turns out.
And we are going to have some serious fun because there are two people in our federal government right now that are almost direct cutouts from the TV show Parks and Recreation, which by the way, is one of my favorites. I've, I've never really been able to put my finger on why I like it. It's got kind of a ditzy blonde girl, right? The the lady Leslie, she plays
the, the idealistic person. We've all probably worked with that Lady and it's fun because she's so she's so interested and believes so purely that whenever she's let down, it's kind of funny. Then you've got people who got their own agenda and then you got the Ron Swanson character. And although it is not 100% one to one, because I don't think Donald Trump thinks government needs to be shut down the way
that Ron Swanson does. And I've never heard him talk about bacon in the way that Ron Swanson does. Nick Offerman's character of Ron Swanson is one of the great amusements for me where a leftist group of people wrote ATV show that lampooned conservatives and libertarians and what they ended up doing was accidentally realizing that the most popular character that they had was the person that they thought was going to be sort of like the villain.
Kind of the off color character that old stodgy doesn't like government racist type guy. That's what they ended up making the most lovable character. Parks and Recreation I think as much as anything else is a funny little turn on its head because they didn't realize what was so popular even though they knew it was funny. They just didn't realize that taking that character itself, that was the win. They were dunking on conservatives.
They were dunking on libertarians, but they were really dunking on themselves by not realizing how funny that stuff was. So we're going to go there. We've got stories about the shutdown. Yes, it continues. What else do I got on here? Supreme Court. You can't be racist if you're a black woman, but you are potentially Patanjali. Katanjali. There's a possibility that if you are a Katanji Jackson Browne, you believe that black equals disabled. We just said that I said that
she said that yesterday. She said that she said that black people are disabled because they're black. I'll let you guys hear you make your own decision up. It's one of the worst. It's we have the dumbest Supreme Court right now. So today's episode is entitled Idiocracy. And there's also an opportunity in an Idiocracy to play stupid games, win stupid prizes. We're going to wrap up with that. What's going on in Chicago? What's going on in Maine?
And then lastly, I think we're going to try to touch on something from The Blaze, which my buddy Steve Baker has been saying. I finally am able to talk about it, folks. I told you we weren't going to let the Chinese server farms go. Those those SIM farms, they're not going to go. So before we get into that, let's go ahead and talk about one of our sponsors. I just wanted to show you for those of you that are listening on Spotify, go ahead and go visual right now.
If you're watching on YouTube or if you're watching on, if you're watching on Rumble, check this out. This is the backpack rig I'm going to take to the No Kings Rally.

And what we're going to do right now is jump into today's program. And just for the sake of nostalgia, I think yesterday may have been one of the most polished attempts to continue to touch base. So there it is again.
Not their first gay roadie. If you didn't listen to yesterday's program, will you please go back and listen to that one? I'm actually very proud of it. I don't rarely, I rarely say like this is one that we really got to. It's really one for the fun. That one was really one for the fun books, and it was well stitched on accident because it all came together in the beginning with this really weird story that NBC decided to run.
All right, we're not going to be talking about that today nearly as much. I probably will not touch the base of the the fuchsia genie that exists in our government, but we will talk about this goofy meeting, this weird expose. I don't even know what they were trying to accomplish. Everything about this reminded me of Tom Haverford doing a business pitch to anybody.
If you are not familiar with the show Parks and Recreation, if you've never seen it, there's this Indian character played by Aziz Ansari. He's super enthusiastic. He has really, really bad ideas. He's desperate for attention and for love and for someone to appreciate his brilliance, which is not that brilliant. And he's constantly doing sort of goofy things like pitching ideas to folks who are not having it. And nobody wants a piece of it.
And in fact, before we go into the actual version of that, let's see if I can just play. I think I can just play this right here. I've got a little taste of Tom Haverford from Parks and Recreation. Gentlemen. Swan song, how you living? Yes. Why aren't you and the snake juice? I'm more of a whiskey man. Ron, Ron, come here. Come here for a bit.
You're good right there. Listen, you got to jump on the Tommy Town Express. This guy has some of the best investment ideas I've ever heard in my life. Make a baby tuxedo clothing line a department store with the guest list, white fur earmuffs for men, contact lenses that display text messages. Invent a phone that smells good. Own a nightclub called Eclipse that's only open for one hour. 2 * a year cover charge $5000 I can keep going. Could keep going. Oh my God.
Did you put glitter in the laundry detergent? Oh yeah, I'm experimenting with some new entrepreneurial ideas. That one's called Sparkle Suds Dressed loud. Will you stop putting? Glitter in everything. This morning you put glitter in the butter. Disco Dairy. No, that's not a good idea. That's terrible. Well, the target demographic is
an angry middle-aged nurses. Miss Wicks, if you've read our proposal, you'll see that an alliance between Rent a Swag and Sweetums could be mutually beneficial. Well, I must say it's a much better idea than the last one. You had that gourmet French food thing. Oh my escargot delivery service Snail Mill. So you want to partner up and make history? If you let Newport have the vans that just sit there in a lot.
If you let us have the vans and they drive around town all day, free publicity, everyone will see your logo, which is you all pressed up on some chick with huge cans. Yeah. It's a hell of a. Day people need to know about it. And I don't need free publicity, I can just pay for it with my $10,000. Look, I ain't going to try to play a player. You're trying to get Buku Buck just like the rest of us. So how about this? I have a business idea for a gourmet alcoholic yogurt.
I call it Yogurt Platinum. We'll let you in on the ground floor and let me tell you, it's going to be worth way more than 10 grand. Thank you. Mr. President, what I'd like to do is just highlight some of the outstanding work that the men and women of the FBI have been doing. And thanks to your brave leadership and the mandate you were given by the American people, not only defend the homeland, but crush violent
crime. You tasked us with our great partners at the Department of Justice and the Attorney General and the Deputy Attorney General to start making arrests and bring prosecutions and safeguard our cities. And you said it. This is just the beginning, in just seven months. I hope the media takes a look at every one of these charts because these are the best numbers for fighting crime in U.S. history.
And it's only seven months in. And to do that, our vehicle to do it of choice was Operation Summer Heat, which the FBI architected to go after violent criminals. And in just a three month span, you had 8700 arrests of violent criminals. You had 2200 firearms seized off the streets permanently to safeguard our communities. You had 421kg of fentanyl seized. Just to put that in perspective. That's enough to kill 55,000,000
Americans alone. You had 45,000 kilograms of cocaine seized and thanks to our Department of Justice partners who had 2100 indictments in three months from June to September alone. Mr. President, that in and of itself would be historic for a four year presidency. You did that in seven months because you let good cops be cops. And you partnered us with the right people, the Department of Justice, to put the handcuffs on and bring them to court and put them in prison and.
Disco dairy, spread the party. You let good cops be cops. He's even got his own cheesy tag lines. It's so gross. It's how bored does Trump look? Trump's like, can someone get me like a Diet Pepsi or whatever it is that he drinks Diet Coke? He's just looking around. He's like his hands are just slack at his side.
I think Donald Trump appreciates his butt getting kissed as much as anybody does, as long as it's not so overt that they actually have their mouth open and it gets slobbery and he has to change his pants at the end of it. That's in the chatter call and all the same stuff I saw too. He said architected. I don't even know what that means. I don't know what architected is. Apparently there was a plan and was architected by the FBI and Donald Trump did all this stuff.
No one really knows what's going on with the like the story so awkward. Let me read ABC, which tried to take a solid take on it. They said President Donald Trump, speaking at the White House alongside FBI Director Kash Patel and his administration, are going into other cities to combat time. Trump said We're going to have a strong surge of good people, patriots. They're going to go in and they're going to straighten it all out again. I'm not crazy about federal
solutions. This again, Why are they not solving it on their own? They all have their own police forces. They clearly want to have the things they have. But I get it, I get it, get it because sometimes you need a tourniquet. There are some places that actually do want to turn around and they've had years and years of bad policy. So a federal leg up isn't the worst thing in the world turning the National Guard loose on there.
But to act like the FBI had to something to do with all of this information is really silly. If you guys don't know, what the FBI basically did is they simply took all of the arrests that they have been present at. They do it in all their press releases so you guys can read right through the code. I'm not making this stuff up when I when I look at it, I just know that they are, they say arrest the FBI participated in.
I have seen arrests that the FBI participated in where FBI agents were sitting behind glass watching on a closed circuit camera while somebody else put handcuffs on someone. And that was referred to as an FBI arrest that they participated in. And they claimed it as a statistical accomplishment. So all these numbers are fudged. They're all fluffed up to be able to look like they're really
a big deal. And this idea, summer heat going into cities and trying to do a push against violent crime, literally happens every single year. They just have different name for different field offices. The only thing they did specific, as far as I can tell with Patel and Bongino, is that they named it something nationwide and then everybody did it. I've been part of those at least three times when I worked for
the Washington Field office. It was a great way to not have to do counterintelligence, which is incredibly boring. We'd go on a door knocking campaign. We'd get a bunch of local criminal charges, unsolved murders, you know, significant bodily damage done in some area, and you go knock on all the doors and you go talk to people. And sometimes it would result in a push upward.
They're also putting people in the street, which is not what FBI agents do. They don't do like knocking talks on transactional violent crime. That's not real. That's not what the FB is job is. You can actually read it in their their name. Federal Bureau of Investigations investigations are not hanging around doing patrol. So they've basically taken a bunch of law enforcement officers, put them into a into a patrol type role.
So they can take basically patrol type statistics, but they're not doing complex fraud and white collar crime. They're not doing. I mean, look at this, people were excited yesterday that that there's a possibility that John Bolton will be indicted and arrested. I've seen the list of the so-called deep state gangsters and I've seen who the bad actors are supposed to be. And they include people like comedy and Brennan and Obama and the Biden family and a bunch of others, Fauci, you name it,
right? Did anyone really, really care that someone who used to be part of the Trump administration, Mike, I mean, is that the best they're going to do? They're not doing the complex long term investigation that the FBI is actually capable of. And they've gotten rid of people who could. Our first producer, Phil Kennedy, he had almost 15 years with the Bureau. He has a master's degree, He is ACPA. He did complex white collar fraud.
That's the thing that only the FBI can do in the way that the FBI can do it. But instead of doing the stuff that the that the agency is actually designed to do, getting out of politics and going and doing really the long term high intensity investigations that nobody has the attention span to hold onto that only the federal government really has sort of the budgeting and the capabilities of having them, you know, take the time and patience to work.
They're not doing that. They're doing the alternative. They're going for low hanging fruit. They're going for the easiest possibilities. They're going for whatever they can to be able to pump up the numbers in the highest way possible so they can show progress without actually having progress. I almost forgot this one. It took you, Sir, two weeks to get the Abbey Gate bomber. Just hold on for this one second. Just consider this.
The hell is about to claim that Donald Trump and he basically says that Donald Trump personally is responsible for an investigation getting a guy out of Pakistan. If you get somebody out of Pakistan, if you, if you are able to extradite someone from a foreign nation, that almost always takes between 18 and 24 months. We've talked about it with with Bill Taylor previously.
When you do what's called a paw, provisional arrest warrant PAW, that's just the name for it. I don't know why it takes that long. It was really frustrating to me when I went to go get one and found out that we had a guy down in Mexico just South of the border who was involved in a unlawful flight to involve to avoid prosecution. He was accused of raping girls in his neighborhood.
He was like almost 80 years old and it wasn't even clear that he was going to survive long enough for us to be able to to arrest him and have him see American justice. And it still was going to take approximately 2 years to get him extradited over to us. There's just this really complex process that goes between State Department and DOJ and FBI and all the interested parties and so on and they just take
forever. So to negotiate out that this, this bomber who I've been told may or may not actually be the right person. I, there's some, there's some question about whether or not that guy is the quote UN quote mastermind. But Patel is basically hanging it on Donald Trump like a metal and saying, Sir, you are so amazing. You did this thing. Donald Trump is like, I don't even, I don't even remember what you're talking about because I didn't actually do that thing.
And I don't think this praise really falls on ears that hear it. I don't think it makes any sense and it doesn't seem like it's effective. It it just seems really thirsty and desperate, which is stuff that I've said about Patel before. One more time with that little Abby Gate claim. Here we go. I almost forgot this one. It took you, Sir, two weeks to get the Abby Gate bomber. Joe Biden had four years to look for him.
You got him in two weeks thanks to the interagency effort by the FBI and the CIA went to Pakistan. And now 13 brave warriors who were sentencing murder because the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal. They have justice. Their families have a Peace of Mind. And we're going to continue to find the elders. Mr. President, on behalf of the FBI, Sir, I just want to thank you. Thank. You very much.
Why are we thanking him? Have you ever seen an FBI director get out and do a presentation like this, which seems like an attempt to hold on to your job? You ever seen anyone do this? I've never seen another FBI director stand in the Oval Office and do a press conference briefing. Something that would basically be a one sheets like Sir, operation done. Here's the information that we have. This is the successes. You know, this is what we're looking for. This is why we're asking for the
budget. We are boom, the end. It's one sheet. It's briefed by anyone. It could be briefed in a quiet meeting. So this is all theater is my point. And that's why the parts and rec thing, it makes me laugh in such a way because it's so desperate. It's so, it's so trying to be something. It's a trying too hard. When I had folks inside the Hoover building tell me right off the bat that Cash Patel is the Make a Wish director. He's getting all of his, you know, his little boxes checked.
Even the ABC News story says in a rare event, Patel joined Trump to give a presentation on what they called Operation Summer Heat. He talked at length about the thousands of arrests he said the administration made over the past few months. You'll notice it doesn't say convictions. You'll notice it doesn't say that. They have been able to compare it one to one to previous administrations. No, they're just doing accountability. They're doing an accounting game with you.
And if you guys are listening to these statistics, what is the old Mark Twain thing? There's lies, there's damn lies, and there's statistics. This is exactly it. I hope you'll look at the graphs though, people. I hope the media will take a look at the graphs. This is how serious people talk, right? I hope the media takes a look at every one of these charts because these are the best numbers for fighting crime in U.S. history. And it's only seven months in.
And to do that, our vehicle to do it of choice was Operation Summer Heat, which the FBI architected to go after violent criminals. And in just a three month span, you had 8700 arrests of violent criminals. You had 2200 firearms seized off the streets permanently to safeguard our communities. You had 421kg of fentanyl seized. Just to put that in perspective, that's enough to kill 55,000,000 Americans alone. You had 45,000 kilograms of cocaine seized.
And thanks to our Department of Justice partners, who had 2100 indictments in three months from June to September alone. Can anyone explain to me how they had over 8000 arrests, but they only had 2100 indictments? How did that work out? Seriously, how did, how does that work out? When you arrest somebody, you've taken them into custody on probable cause that they've committed a crime, then you have to charge them, right? You guys know that.
So the charge involves either a an information or an indictment. Those are basically the two ways that you bring forward charges. How do you only have 2100 indictments? What do they, what do they do with the other ones? They charge them by information. That's not how the DOJ generally does business. So I'm just asking questions. The crazy thing is, is I know for a fact that of those 8000 arrests, a bunch of them are just iced arrests.
They've taken the FBI and they've taken them from this capability of, you know, what did he, what did he promise? We're going to go in and do something that nobody's done before. We're going to depoliticize an organization. We're going to get rid of the deep state and government gangsters. That was the claim. That was the pitch, That was the
cash only. And what they did instead was let's see if we can pump up our garbage stats by simply having them run around and do ICE arrests, which don't even result in an indictment. They result in maybe a deportation proceeding. So the person never actually stands trial for any of the charges that they are facing. Ain't that something? It really is something to me. I can't get away with it. I can't stop seeing this stuff. So maybe we'll just play a little more Tom Haverford.
Is that agreeable to everybody? Gentlemen. Swan song. Or the club Marine I. Don't know why it does. That sort of a submarine theme club or Tom's Bistro? The word Bistro is classier. Tom and we are looking for a few top quality guys like yourself to become part owners, guy like you with your political connections, I think you'd make a great asset. I agree, that's why I got into public service to help me. All right, $10,000 to share. I'll give you money by Friday.
$10,000 it's a chump change. I will see you Friday with $10,000. My partner. No one else brought me any good business ideas, so I decided to take care of it myself. Talking tissue. Anytime you pull one out you get a little message to hype you up. Blow that nose player. This stinks. I got to go back to my same job that I've had forever. Was this, was this the alternative to him getting named
FBI director? Was that he was going to have to do talking tissues and do fashion consulting for a for a Chinese brand that he totally doesn't own still, even though it's held by a Cayman Islands company and all the other kind of weird stuff. It's so silly. In any case, I saw all this stuff and I just couldn't. I couldn't Unsee it once I saw it and I now neither you, can you? They did get Todd Blanche up there to talk about it. I saw folks in the chat asking.
I know that Alex Jones has been out there making a comment about Todd Blanche being the problem. I've heard other people say it as well. I don't know for a fact what goes on in DOJ nearly as much as what I hear in the FBI. In fact, FBI agents are rarely going to understand the workings at DOJ. We never really did. You'd know what was going on in your local office. You might know some of the politics of it.
But Todd Blanche gave his little take on it, and his also seems fake to me. Here's why Todd Blanch, he ignores all those things. So right, you there's a couple ways you can tell a story. You can tell the story from the 3000 or from the 30,000 foot view where you look down you go. This is the broad overarching plan. So Cash kind of did that. He's like 8000 arrests, 2100 indictments. We got all those pounds of fentanyl, we got all these guns, OK.
And then you can tell the story by telling it in minutiae, right? You can get hyper focused in on a tiny little example. So Todd Blanch does the example version of it and it's kind of weird too. He's talking about something in Alaska and A and a little hotel that was involved in moving drugs. Apparently this is the from from big to small kind of thing. This is a a hyper example of what they did. I guess I didn't hear a lot from Pam Bondi, but maybe she spoke
as well. Anyway, here's here's Todd Blanch who may or may not be the problem. In the logjam people claim that it is. Again, I don't have that information. So if you want to hear it from people on Tucker, if you want to hear it from an Alex Jones, by all means take it for wherever that's worth. Their sources are different than mine. Thank you Mr. President. So this is a great day and I think there's stats that the director talked about which are important, but I want to give 2
examples of what summer heat. Has done that. That actually will apply hopefully to everybody in this room. The 1st is for over 4 years. During the last administration there was a hotel in a town, the middle of the town in Alaska that was being run as a drug den. There were over 1000 calls to 911 over 4/4 and 1/2 year period. There were multiple violent crimes, drug dealers, overdoses and murders at this one hotel, ruining a community.
Summer heat went in there. It's not only arrested all the participants that were controlling the hotel, but seize the hotel. And so that's that's one example of what summer heat means to everyday Americans that just want to live in peace. The second example. Is is a large narcotics trafficking group that was selling fentanyl in the state of Washington. They were shipping fentanyl and using commercial aircraft.
Putting fentanyl pills and powder onto in suitcases, flying them from the southwest border, mostly Arizona, all the way to Washington. It had been going on for an extremely long time and the entire organization was arrested. And I say those two examples because. Because why? Because they're 2 examples of what local local should be doing. He just said that there was 1009 one. One calls in a period of 4 1/2 years. I used to live across the
street. I used to live down in Austin, TX. I lived at the crossroads of Cesar Chavez and Komal St. If you know Austin then you might actually know that place. And on the the northwest corner of that intersection was a place that was called R&D's Doghouse and they changed the name to something else dog related.
I can't remember what it was. It was always dumb and it was a Tango Blast Syndicate gang hangout, like it was their clubhouse and they were open at all hours of the night when they were not allowed to be. They weren't zoned to be open and R&D's doghouse got probably 1000 phone calls to either 311 or 911 by me in a period of 3 1/2 years. I called them almost every single night because I wanted to make sure that it was a nuisance that was well reported.
Do you know that that was not an FBI case, even though we're talking about a prison gang that is actually fairly, fairly prominent in Texas. R and DS Doghouse getting 1009 one one calls is a common thing across this country. There are all kinds of nuisance organizations, whether they be a hotel, whether they be a bar, whether they be some sort of a a clubhouse for an outlaw motorcycle gang that are regularly the subject of phone calls.
To have the deputy attorney general come out and highlight this like this was some sort of big FBI win it. It should be embarrassing for a serious organization. Serious people should be embarrassed. What I did notice conspicuously absent, you had the FBI director, but no deputy, even though they're both big names. You had the attorney general and you had her deputy, right? So you had the number one and two at DOJ, but you only had the
number one over at FBI. And they didn't mention him, although all they did say architected. Apparently Cash got the talking point afterwards that he was supposed to credit Dan Bongino with this. So he went on with John Solomon, who designed this ridiculous set. I don't know if this was at the White House, if this is in a like one of their press rooms or something, but this is one of the worst visual sets that
you'll ever see. And John Solomon, who already is a soft seed for Cash Patel, the two of them were buddies. They were the two that were named for access to the National Archives by Donald Trump in 2022 on the same sort of
authorization letter. So these guys, this is this is like having your own PR propaganda mouthpiece step out there to do it. And you'll know that John Solomon already knows what they're going to say, that they've already scripted this out because he'll be like he says, like all these like real sympathetic little noises.
Like you listen to that. For me, it's nauseating because Don Solomon has lied to my face about several things that were really impactful for me personally and didn't matter to him at all. He just cares about getting his story and making sure he's out there. I very much personally dislike John Solomon, so that is a personal bias that I hold. But I also watch this.
He's not a talented broadcaster. He has a bad delivery, He's got a lisp, he's weird looking, you know, and all those things are strange for television. And if you're really, really competent and you really, really sell it, well, there are people who are half his age and have a third of his experience that are outstanding at doing broadcast, even if I don't like their message. Like Nick Fuentes is 1000 times more engaging than John Solomon, and yet randomly he's on
television. And it's because he simps up to this access pool and he's able to get people like the current FBI director to sit down with him and then to basically suck up again and say how great Dan Bongino is, who wasn't there, who apparently was the person who architected this brilliant thing that the FBI does every single year. I'm covering it almost a lot because I had multiple journalist reach out to me and say, you got to watch this press conference. It's really bad.
There's going to be unlimited fodder for your shows. So that's kind of funny when people from from the mainstream are out there watching this. And you know, I got it from a couple of different outlets. They just went like, looking forward to seeing this. It is gross. Here's the follow up to that. Sort of, I don't know, I called it professional knob slobbery, which I probably shouldn't say, but I do think that's what it is. And I think that's a fairly well that's that's as bad as a gay
rodeo, I guess. Here's Patel pumping up Dan Bongino, who I expect probably leaves. I guess the money is going to be on. Does he leave before Thanksgiving or at Thanksgiving because of a family thing, or does he leave at Christmas when it's quiet? One way or another, I still think Dan Bongino is out of there. And by the way, we haven't heard a single peep out of Andrew Bailey, which is good because maybe he's actually doing the job. I don't even know if Dan Bongino
shows up to work anymore. Well, I'd love to be able to take credit for it, but I may have had one of the ideas. But there's two groups. There's one man who is responsible for Operation Summer Heat, and the architect is Deputy Director Dan Bongino. He drew it up, he put out the mechanics, he went to the field, and he went 100% for these last seven months. And the men and women of the FBI executed Deputy Director Bongino's summer heat operation.
And summer heat, that's just a three month snapshot, by the way, that was only three months from June to September. So the numbers you just announced, we just released the numbers for the last eight straight months of the FBI and the number that people should take away more than anything as a result of this, because summer heat was our juggernaut that we used to kinetically operate in Memphis, in Chicago, in every major city, literally in America. We have over 28,000 arrests year to date.
This year alone of violent offenders, 28,000. That's amazing. Put it. But just for people who don't know, to put that in perspective, last year, year to date, the Biden administration had 14,000. Wow, we're double. Double. Yeah, we're double. Wow. Double right. Oh, yeah. That's how could you hear him in the background? Maybe it's just me and I'm I'm open to it to being just me listening to John Solomon and back there just Oh yeah. Oh, man, that's so good.
It's such a great thing. It's just it's it's not good broadcasting. For starters, it shows that you're a partisan hack and you're out there pushing this. He asked one question, which was clearly a setup and it and even as a setup question, it got really, really bad and ugly. By the way, I'm not going to just punch it. This. I've got some other funny stuff too. We have Bernie Sanders and AOC
for our balancing act. We're going to play some of their town hall, which is truly nauseating as well. Getting owned by a young man when you've been in politics for 1000 years like Bernie Sanders has is pretty bad. But all of this stuff was the setup to is anything going to happen? Because I've read the comments that people posted online as well in the various different social media platforms. And it's like, what about the Epstein files? You can't do enough to run away
from that. And they've never addressed it head on and done the thing they should have done. Never. They've never once come out and just said we blew it. We lied, we made things up, we oversold a position that we could not justify. We claim that there was all this stuff happening and when we got behind the curtain, that wasn't it.
They should have done that. They should have owned up to the fact that they were full of crap for years, doing podcast hits and news media and writing articles and being guest commentators and putting out books, that they were full of it. And I put both of them on there. I found this this morning. This made me smile in such a funny way. This guy is the deputy director. He's the code deputy director of the FBI. Do you remember him? Many of you first heard about me
because of this guy. How do you do podcasts like this and then end up in the place where they're at right now, where nobody's been arrested that they're talking about? Has it? Have we ever once heard of the people inside the Secret Service that were compromised, that we're doing the evil things that Dan Bongino told us about? Didn't he say that they were going to go after and get the pipe bomb? Like none of their promises have come true? Listen to this. Tell me if you remember this guy.
Listen to me. Trump is being hunted by professionals who know exactly what they're doing. And because I hate teases, is the Secret Service compromised? Now? I know you say, well, then you brought that up last week. Is there a mole, whether intentional or unintentional, in the Secret Service? I'll talk about that. But some someone, let's just say who can be trusted? I spoke to last.
Week at the end of the week. Has informed me that their communication system for the Secret Service may be almost entirely compromised. In other words, people trying to hunt and kill Donald Trump may know more about what Donald Trump is doing than Donald Trump is doing. That sounds really dramatic. I bet you better TuneIn next week to find out more. How many months are we away from that? That's like a year old. Listen to this crazy inside information I have now.
I'm on the inside. I don't know anything. He might as well be doing the Batman voice. I just find it embarrassing. It's not quite as embarrassing as this setup and failure. Remember, all of these guys went in with the idea that they were going to clean out the rot. They were going to find the quote UN quote, Deep State actors. I actually thought that a guy who used to be a Secret Service agent and who worked at the ground level, who was like AGS 13 and a 14 would actually know
what that looked like. You could ask any person who's got more than a couple years of experience in federal law enforcement, hey, what's that? What does the deep state operation look like? What would that look like? Who are the people that are the entrenched bureaucrats? And they would go, oh, it's middle management. I had this conversation. I was on a run and borderline hypoxic talking to Steve Baker the other day. I'm like, this is not a top down or a bottom up organization.
When we talk about the FBI, when we talk about DOJ line prosecutors and so on, that's not what's causing the problems for America. It is a middle out issue. It is middle management who has been selected because they're the people who put their hand up and said I would like to be a manager. I've got three years of experience, right? I left the Bureau at six years. I've got three years of experience. I think I can tell other people what to do.
I'm shitty at doing my job. I'm not particularly capable or intelligent, but I do like having power and I'd love to be able to be paid at AGS 14. I'd love to get a decade worth of promotions in one fell swoop, and now that I'm there, I'm willing to do anything. You ask. You want to go after J Sixers? We should do it. You want to go after Jim Comedy? I'm your guy. You want to go after ice people and have a bunch of like fake arrest stats? Whatever you say, boss.
Do you know who these people are? They're not based on principle. They're not based on ideology. They're based on what's in it for me. They call it the Witham. That's there's actually a government acronym for it, Witham. What's in it for me, Witham, is what manages government. It's not that complicated. So are we going to see any deep state arrests? We're going to see all those bad guys that we've talked about that we've been hearing about
for years. You know, the real bad guys, not the not the the little Inn in Alaska that could that got 1009 one one calls on it in four years. Not that I mean like the real baddies that have been really out there going after us and committing the treason and the seditious conspiracies and the conspiracies against rights and screwing up this country that we that we heard that these guys knew how to handle it. Were we going to get them?
You tell me if you're confident after listening to this answer. Beyond those who are already charged, do you think you've seen other crimes that might eventually get referred to justice? Yes, we are looking at so many different leads on criminal activity by those who are in positions of power, and we're not going to stop until every single one of those is fully exposed.
The documents are provided either to Congress or the courts of law and make every referral we can under the Department of Justice. These indictments that you've seen and the ones that you're going to see coming up here in this near future are just the beginning. But I have to remind the audience, one thing, everybody's like, it's seven months. What have you guys been doing? Well, they spent 20 years building this disease, temple of corruption. It takes a little bit of time to
to defeat it and beat it down. I'm not asking you to trust me. I'm asking you to look at the work the men and women of the FBI have done so far in these 7-8 months and just imagine what we're going to do come the year end. OK, So what we need to do is do make believe and and pretend time. Is that what you guys got from it? Because that's what I took. Imagine what we're going to do. Doesn't mean we're going to do it. I imagined you were going to
give us Epstein files. I imagined you were at least going to come clean and say, hey, we don't have anything. And here's why. They spent 20 years building a corrupted, diseased temple. Cool. That sounds like you should start 20 years ago. And anybody that entered management 20 years ago should be eliminated from the role of manager in the entire FBI. In the meantime, that's not what they're doing. They're just promoting the people that were already there.
Do you know who selected those people? Chris Ray for seven years. Jim Comedy for the years before that. Some of them were selected under Mueller. Yeah. That's who's out there. The people that are at the 20 year mark, 22 years in the Bureau. Got it. You want to know the funniest thing that came out of yesterday's meeting? And I'll just I'll just end my my coverage of it with this cash Patel announced Maybe the funniest thing that he doesn't
even know is funny. I imagine he doesn't actually know this is funny. This came out on X. FBI special agents will keep getting paid because we prioritize the people who protect this country. President Trump has made sure our men and women in law enforcement and the military will not miss a paycheck during the shutdown. America's security doesn't stop, and neither do we. That's his claim.
Do you guys realize that the FBI agents make up about 13,513 thousand 800 of the 38,000 employees at FBI? You're just going to pay the FBI special agents? Are you kidding me? Please do this. This is the funniest thing that you could do. There is already a deep and inherent resentment between the so-called professional support staff or the unsupport staff is what I would call them. The women in the nail room, right, That I've told you about before.
The people that work there that are in the analytical end of thing that don't do law enforcement. I had a, a a an an analyst one time. I said, Hey, can you help me with this thing? And they said, oh, I don't, I don't work cases. I don't work cases in the same attitude that a national security agent once told me. I have a real job. I work national security. She said that to a couple of cops who had real jobs fighting actual crimes.
OK, that level of like smarminess, that sort of instinct of one job is better than the other. There is one job that is the top job at the FBI. It's special agent. But to pay the best paid people in the Bureau and not pay the others and still have them go to work will be the funniest thing that you could do to RIP the culture of that agency apart. And if you're doing that in other agencies as well, that is freaking hilarious. It would get you right back to the to the message that we don't
need non essentials. I do think that would be useful. I would love to see it. We might as well cover the story right now. The Senate failed to advance the GOP funding bill for the ninth time in a row. The government shutdown has entered Day 16 and nobody cares. And if you only pay some people and those people are the best paid people in your agency because FBI agents are by far the best paid for their amount of time and tenure, that's freaking hysterical and I think they should do that.
I think you should keep paying them. I'm not sure how they get around that. CBS reported this story here letting you know the GOP bill to fund the House has failed for the ninth time. Or fund the the government rather. They ended the 15th day of the shutdown. We're now in the 16th. The vote attracted no additional support from Democrats who are basically stalwart on what
they're doing. Members in the military were set to be paid on Wednesday despite the shutdown after the Trump administration tapped unused research and development funds to cover their checks. The House Speaker, Mike Johnson, warned that it was a temporary fix. I don't know what funds they're going to tap when it comes to paying FBI Special Agent 18 elevens, but let him do it and
it doesn't matter. FBI agents will be paid during the shutdown, said Cash Patel. Again, no details on how that is. I know for a fact that my friends only got paid for one of the weeks, not the other week when they got their paycheck last Friday. So I guess they're going to have a big true up thing. They're going to screw up everybody's tax structure. This is fun, This is dumb. Never, never stop these people when they're doing silliness and they are doing silliness right
now. So I'm just going to call it what it is before we get deeper than than we were, let's just talk about my buddies over at Patriot Cooler, folks who are not silly people who make a good product and you guys can voluntarily choose to associate with them the way that we have since what, February of 2023? This is the Patriot Cooler on the desk today. This is the 19 oz coffee mug with a handle. It's fantastic. It has ghost lettering here that says Patriot, which I very much
like. It keeps my coffee nice and hot. I actually went through some boiling water in there from our Cove pier just before the show went live. Patriot coolers.com is the website Patriot Coolers with an S on theend.com promo code Kyle saves you 10%. They've got great, well thought out stuff. It's as good as any of the competition. Other people, they just put out a newsletter.
Other people have been raising their prices because of the the tariffs and the inbound increase in product costs on their end when they ship things in. A lot of these things have to be made in China because they're not legally allowed to be made in the United States due to our silly EPA. Maybe Trump will get on that, but these guys have not upped
their prices. They understand that times are tough for a lot of people, so they're keeping them consistent and they're eating some of that margin. They're a good company with good people and they also support veterans. If you guys want to check them out, it's Patriot coolers.com promo code Kyle link in the show description. If you are just listening, that is the sound of my finger pointing down to where the show description is. You could Scroll down and see it
right there. We're going to cover a couple other fun stories. How about fun takeaways from Bernie Sanders and AOCI? Don't have an AOC voice, folks. I do not have 1A. Bernie Sanders just sounds like that in my name whenever. Like in my mind whenever I hear the name of. Bernie Sanders. It sounds like Bernie Sanders is saying it. So there we go. Let's read a bit about the
takeaways from the CNN. They did a town hall as Alexandria Ocasio Cortez accused Republicans of refusing to work to end the government shutdown and referred to House Speaker Mike Johnson as inane and silly. Those are what he was focusing on. The White House's rapid response account called her and her fellow progressive Bernie Sanders not serious people. This is why we have room to get stuff done and we're not doing it. Why are we not getting things done when we have silly people
that are on the other side? This would be a great opportunity to just own it. Imagine if Mike Johnson came out, if Johnson came on, just said, listen, this is our shutdown. The government is trash. We don't like it. There's nothing good. It's a great, it's a great waste of money. And there are some things that we unfortunately have to do with
government. So we will do them, but we're not thrilled about it. They can't do that because that would actually involve explaining that their system of power is garbage, kind of like an oligarchy. This is Bernie Sanders getting owned by what looks like a young college age male with a thick Indian accent. See, we're not mean to all Indian people, just people who, you know, want to make talking tissues and lie about crime stats. This guy just took Bernie to the woodshed. Listen to this.
How do you think this shutdown reflects on Chuck Schumer's leadership? Well, I think it reflects more on Mike Johnson's leadership and President Trump's leadership. This is a leadership which said it's OK to give a well, how do you feel? You tell me. I think it's a good idea to give a trillion dollars in tax breaks to the richest people in the country and then make massive cuts to health care for working class people.
I think Chuck Schumer has voted for continuing resolutions 13 times in the last four years, and he has the opportunity to vote for one again, but he's refusing to come to the. Table I think look. Well, I think that you probably help me on that one because I don't actually that's a lot of times that they have done this. We don't believe in doing things consistently. We are just not very good at this anymore. It seems like you bring receipts, and I do not like those.
What I do like is a good sombrero. If you're listening right now, you should check us out on Spotify so that you can visually see what I'm about to play for you. It goes along with the music. You'll have an indication. Republicans have been appealing to audiences, especially young people like myself, online using social media. Why does Republican messaging on social media seem so much more effective than Democratic messaging? And what can we do about it?
Well, that's a great question. I think the Republicans are affected. They have learned a lot about social media. And by the way, it doesn't hurt that they're friends on all of the major social media platforms, you know? Did he just say that? Did he say something about how Republicans have friends at all the major social media platforms? Is that the world we're living in right now where you were going to straight lie to our faces even though we already
know? Didn't they give millions if not billions of dollars in support to Democrat candidates over the last couple years to try to push this thing along? That music is really catchy though, isn't it? I I think that I I stopped drinking a couple years ago because it just never added anything to my life. But in my life I have been hungover, and many of you have too. If you want to know what I my secret belief is about what hell might look like.
It's a really aggressive hangover and a mariachi ban. And I've seen somebody who's been in that hell. I had some friends actually, right when I met my wife, we had a a friend that overdid it on either the night I met her or maybe the night after something like that, like right around
then. And we went out to breakfast right across the street in that crappy little neighborhood where I made 1000 calls to 911 and 311, and somebody turned on a mariachi jukebox while our friend Jeff was sitting there with a splitting headache and a miserable look on his face. And I realized that that's what hell look like. It is real. It has to be real because you can. You can absolutely see that that person was in hell at that time. Bernie Sanders in his own little
version of hell. I think this is a Democrat. Hell, I think that these people are in this moment where they have no idea how to even defend their silliness. And so the cartoon sombrero on the top of a Bernie Sanders head is amazing. It's perfect. It says exactly how serious we take you. They take themselves that seriously too. For the first time, their stupidity doesn't actually land with the audience that they're actually trying to touch.
You'll notice that this is ACNN Town Hall called Shut Down America. Like it even matters. And Americans overwhelmingly are like, why do we even fund you idiots? You can't even agree on simple things. You can't even answer simple questions. Here's AOC asking if she's going to primary challenge Chuck Schumer and she has to turn it over to the, you know, the oligarchy guy. And he's going to go on this like unhinged old man rant. And it just doesn't. It's like you didn't answer the
question. We heard you. You didn't answer it. But are you saying that Senator Schumer should not be worried about a primary challenge from you? Let me jump in on this one. Let me. This is See, that's exactly what we're talking. Have a country that is falling apart. We had a house housing crisis, a healthcare crisis, an education crisis, massive income and wealth inequality, a corrupt campaign finance system, and the media says, oh, you're going to run.
What are you going to run for? Nobody cares. So one more talk. Nobody. Cares here it's the House Speaker and President Trump and the vice president saying it. Pardon. Of course, they're saying it to deflect the tension away from the. But there's all these problems. They've got the problems. Have you not heard the problems
in this country? We got the crisis on the hedge of houses and we got the crisis and the education, and the oligarchy has taken all the money and the wealth and the quality is going on. It's hard to actually do that voice for very long. You got to respect the guy. He's in his 80s. He does a good job saying silly things. All of that tells me one really simple thing, and I'm going to turn to another older voice, this one that is one that I respect a little more.
This is Victor Davis Hanson, and he makes the argument that Donald Trump personally broke these people. I don't think he's wrong. I've seen it in my life and you have too. How many of us have seen that our neighbors and our family members and friends that used to make sense and didn't lose their ever loving minds about things that didn't, you know, that weren't crazy.
They just cannot have a non emotional reaction to something so simple as like, hey, are you, are you going to primary challenge somebody in your house in in your own camp? Are you going to go after somebody in your party? That can happen and they're like, they just lose it. DDH my buddy thinks that he's one of the great ones. I think he's his voice of sanity is there. He's kind of a little bit more Trumper, pro Trumpy than I'm comfortable with sometimes. But I don't think that he's
wrong. And he talks about why people looked at it and went, look, look, what did you just hear? You heard an Indian young man own Bernie Sanders badly. And then you heard probably the scariest version, a young white girl who by all accounts would probably fall into, she's at ACNN Town hall, for God's sake, would fall into the the power range of people that will look over and go, Donald Trump is an evil, bad orange man. And whatever he says is, is wrong. DDH is, I think he's correct.
I think that some of these people's brains have broken. And the younger generation is like, yo, you're not cool, you're not fun, you're not hip, you're not with it. You don't even make sense. Look, we're going to vote some other way. That's why we have room to not suck and not have some of the goofiness that goes on in some of these government departments. Donald Trump's greatest legacy. He broke the Democratic Party and he turned it.
He exposed it for what it was. It was a bicoastal elite party with a bunch of billionaires who spend lavishly and a bunch of subsidized poor and a professional class that feels frustrated. They make 200 and $300,000 a year, but they live in these blue cities that are very expensive and they can't buy their beautiful home. That's what the Mondami constituency is, frustrated young white professionals. And then you they've lost the working class. They've lost.
It's not just the they have lost the muscular classes, Hispanic muscular classes, black males, white. As I said before, if you look at 2016, 20 and 24, Donald Trump's white vote, it's pretty constant. And he did not win the popular vote in 2016 or 2020 and his voting. And yet he did win the popular vote and the Electoral College in 2024 with the same percentage and actual numbers of white voters. So what happened? He picked up some women.
He picked up some young people, and he got 55% of Hispanic males, and he got about 25% of black males. And he? And the people of Chicago are walking around with MAGA hats. You have women, beautiful black women walking around with MAGA hats. Please let the president in. And we don't care how he does it. They're not interested in National Guard or. Army, Navy, bring them in.
Marines bring in the Marines. They just want the crime to stop and more so because of the success that we had in DCI.
Think if we didn't have that success, nobody would even believe it. Only Donald Trump could do Donald Trump. Every time that one of the cabinet members does a knock off version of Donald Trump or a sub cabinet member who's an appointee does a like a knock off version of Donald Trump, it falls flat because only Donald Trump can say ridiculous things like he just said right there. And it comes off as being sort of charming and not offensive.
What Trump is is represented in the same way that Ron Swanson represented on Parks and Recreation is that people are dissatisfied and they don't think the system is good and they don't like the way that it goes. And they're like, hey, we've been voting this way. We don't like how you're doing this. You've asked us to believe a bunch of nonsensical things that are completely illogical. You can't answer simple questions. You've tried to pit US against
each other. We want to sometimes have an off color joke. You think that construction workers don't say racist or sexist or homophobic or bigoted things that would offend some sun, you know, some little snowflake on the left. And in the meantime, like, you're going to go ahead and convince them that they have to have this moral air of superiority. Cops, firefighters, paramedics, ER nurses.
ER nurses are some of the nastiest people that have ever walked the earth when it comes to way their mouths run the things that they say out loud and laugh at. Why? Because people die in their hands every day. Same thing with cops. Same thing with people in the military who are enlisted. There's a huge chunk of people who work in like pretty aggressive trades where life can be a little bit dark. And so they have to have a little bit of fun with it.
I just sent a message to one of my buddies. I've got a retired ATF agent and a current FBI agent and a couple others, like sitting in this little group chat. And I said, whenever they leak this group chat, man, they're going to be so upset about how many truthful, sort of racisty memes there are. And they're all edgy because the stuff that we've spent our life doing is edgy. It's edgy to have people die in your freaking hands.
It's edgy to go walk outside and have to save somebody, save a A1 year old baby because some asshole boyfriend is beating the crap out of mom and throws the baby down the stairs. And you're now dealing with an infant who's probably going to be infirm for the rest of their life. And you got to walk home with that, shake it off, and then go have dinner with your kids. Do you get it?
JD Vance makes a point about this, this scandal, this quote, UN quote scandal from a, from a text message thread that was leaked by a bunch of young Republicans. If nobody's ever seen what young boys talk about, and if you've never been a young boy or if you're going to act like you didn't act like that when you were younger, if you didn't say silly things. My buddy and I used to do a routine where we would, we would talk about the problem of
subdues. We would have this little voice and we would do it. It was a funny little joke. And our friend was Jewish and he was with us and he didn't care. It's just like, who could do a good accent? Who could do a good Hitler accent because it was funny, not because everybody was endorsing Hitler is because the sense of humor wasn't completely lost, but the inability to process humor on the left and accept that context matters.
They're the ones that are always out there with the fact checks. Oh, requires context when we say it? No, it always requires context. Human beings can say things that are wildly inappropriate that are truly funny in a moment. And our comedians used to do that and we used to do it with our friends. And so you'd have people that would have a joke about, you know, there was a, a, a video of Bernie Sanders walking with Mandami in New York and AOC.
And it was like a Jewish socialist, a Muslim socialist and a Latina socialist all walk into a bar. Who's paying for it? And the joke would be, I don't know, probably the taxpayers, right? Ha ha, ha, ha, ha, socialist, don't pay for things. It's not off color. That's lighthearted stuff. That's that's that's open fair, but you'd find the left would scream about it and act like they have the ability to unilaterally declare what is it is and is not in bounds.
That was the joy of Ron Swanson. He said things that were like marginally offensive about government or about people who acted inappropriately. He said things about stereotypes. The reason the stereotypes exist is because there is a nice enough people, there's enough evidence in the collective human understanding that like some of the stuff is true for some of those people. Whatever that stereotype is, it doesn't even matter who I'm talking about. You don't know what I'm talking
about. I don't even but fill in the blank stereotype applies to enough people that people have an experience with and they go, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I've experienced that. It's not every Jewish person, black person, Muslim person, someone from India, That's not all of them. Obviously. That's, that's, that's foolishness. But to act like the stereotype came out of nowhere because of bigotry, that's not where it came from. It came from people's experiences.
And they went like, now I'm going to unilaterally broaden this thing up and hopefully they don't actually treat everyone that way. But it doesn't mean it's not funny sometimes. JD Vance is talking about the group chat. That seems like a really reasonable take, the group chat. Don't let somebody's group chat leak from a private text message exchange define the rest of their career. That's absurd. We wouldn't do that. That's never been a possibility
in previous existence. I feel bad for young kids today who think that the Internet is real, who think their life is over because of something like this one of these silly scandals. And Vance is right. He's like, we need to be careful of our children. This is the reason why you'll never see my kids on camera, folks. You won't. Not until they're old enough to make their mind up. And by that time, I hope I'm not doing this because my kids are not old enough to make good decisions online.
They don't have phones. My 8 year old's not going to get a phone for a long time that when she does it's going to be restricted to minimal use. I'd like to get her a landline she can talk to her friends where I can pick up the phone and say hey get off the phone the way that my parents might have done. It's sad we're living in a different reality. Anyway. JD Van says young Republicans accused of racism shouldn't have their lives ruined. That's the story.
But the real story is is why would you assume that it's racism when it's comedy? And some of the stuff is so out of context. It's clearly a joke. Here he is addressing this on. I think this is on the Charlie Kirk show. By focusing on what kids are saying in a group chat. Grow up. I'm sorry focus on the real issues. Don't focus what on what kids say in Group chats. But there's another angle to this that I I just have to be honest about I'm like an old guy at this one.
I'm 41 years old. I have 3 kids, you know, we, we, I, I grew up in a different world, right? We're not most of what I, the stupid things that I did when I was a teenager and a young adult, they're, they're not on the Internet. Like I'm going to tell my kids, especially my boys, don't put things on the Internet. Like be careful with what you post. If you put something in a group chat, assume that some scumbag is going to leak it in an effort to try to cause you harm or
cause your family harm. But the reality is that kids do stupid things, especially young boys. They tell edgy, offensive jokes like that's what kids do. And I really don't want us to grow up in a country where a kid telling a stupid joke, telling a very offensive stupid joke is caused to ruin their lives. And at some point we're all all going to have to say enough of this BS. We're not going to allow the worst moment and a 21 year olds group chat to ruin a kid's life for the rest of time.
We're already there, folks. I know we're there because that's how Donald Trump won the second time around. That's what VDH was saying about breaking this. Nobody wants this crap anymore. I'm going to do a, a plug right here for our folks. Our, our, our show on Spotify. It's Kyle seraphinshow.com. You guys may hear a Spotify ad that plays right now. If you're listening to the audio platforms. You can also find us over on
locals at kyleseraphin.com. We do a call in show on Thursdays where you guys can give your, your opinion. If you want to call up and do a racist joke, I won't be upset. I'll put quote UN quote racist joke. I don't care. Check us out. You'll be able to see the show tonight on on YouTube. You'll find us on rumble on on X, but if you want to call in, you got to be a subscriber on one of those platforms or you got to be a paid follower on one of the one of the the channel
member groups. So feel free to do that. Shameless plugs. I'm going to tell you something that is some of the dumb things that young men do and I'm just going to do a very specific example when I was probably, I don't know, somewhere between 14 and probably 16. OK, 16 or 17, I think my brothers came up with this brilliant idea and it was called catting. They did this thing called catting. I'm going to give some of your teenagers ideas they didn't even
know about. And it is objectively stupid as a grown up, really, really dumb and dangerous. But it was really funny to us. Catting was when you trace the outline of a silhouette of a cat on a piece of cardboard and then you spray painted or you markered the, the cat outline that you cut out with a razor blade or scissors, all black.
OK. And then you took that black cat silhouette with a tail and everything and you super glued 2 Dimes for eyes right in the middle, really shiny reflective Dimes. And then we would take it, or they would take it and they would set it out in the street and they'd put a stick to prop it up. Just a little little stick set up right in the middle of the street in a place where they could go run and hide behind
bushes. They'd get up on a hill and be able to watch down from 2030 feet away and a car would come running along and the headlights would hit the Dimes. They would reflect back at the driver who had to make a split second decision. And they would either smoke the cat or they would pound on their brakes and go skidding to a stop and go look for the cat they just killed, which wasn't real, which was now laying flat because it was made of
cardboard. And it is truly, truly funny when a guy on his cell phone in his BMW in 1997 is driving with his open top convertible and he's talking on the phone. And he was like, anyway, And then I told bride and shit, I just hit a cat. You know, like, that's funny to a 16 year old, to a 15 year old, to a 13 year old. It's stupid and dangerous because that guy could have, you know, driven off the road or wrecked his car or done some
real damage. Is that the kind of thing that we're going to look at and be like, you make terrible decisions for the rest of your life because you're a teenage idiot? And this is the same story of this group chat. And here's how I know it's over because those people used to scold us. They scolded us and said we can tell you that you're dumb, but
you can't say it back. This is from Piers Morgan, who I'm not a big fan of, and a woman claiming the claim of the Democrat Party. I think this is actually a mainline claim that if you are in a protected category, then you are above reproach. And that is a truly wild take. Now you can respond. Women cannot be racist to white women. Are you kidding me? Sorry, that makes no sense. Sorry, Black women cannot be racist to white women. Do you not understand that?
Oh, yes, they can. You don't have the intellectual. Oh, yes, they can to understand that. Oh, yes, they can. And you've been racist to me. That's very much. You've been racist to me, a white man, by saying I'm a race baiter. Yeah. How am I racist to you? I'm black. I can't be racist. You've called me a race baiter with no evidence to me. When have I been a race baiter? You could be racist to me. When have I been a race baiter? Powerhouse? Tell me when I've been a race baiter.
You can't be razors to me. I'm a powerhouse. Ma'am, Ma'am, ma'am. I don't know who's been telling these women that they were untouchable or that they couldn't do anything wrong. But someone has been telling them that. And maybe that person is the kind of people that educated Kitanji Jackson Brown. I don't know. I hear that stuff and it tells me we're done with whatever nonsense that is. People are over it. They think it's silliness. They have highlighted themselves as being ridiculous.
Here's a story that comes from ABC News. The Supreme Court appears ready to limit key parts of the Voting Right Act. This is the thing they were crying about the day before. The arguments happened yesterday. I've only got 1 clip of it. I actually don't understand exactly how it all got argued.
It sounds like it went very favorably for Louisiana, which was basically arguing that they want to kind of gut the Voting Rights Act. I think there was a time and a place when maybe it was necessary, but we have passed that. And if we're being truly honest, the Voting Rights Act and a lot of the civil rights legislation that went on in the 60s were probably unconstitutional to
begin with. There's been strong arguments made by people like Ben Shapiro, who for better, for worse, you know, you don't have to like him today, but the guy made some very, very articulate and intelligent takes and he's had them for a very long time. One of which, which I very much ingested and I've come to believe is that we've basically had two competing comp constitutions in this country.
One of them was the constitution that was at the country's founding and set out to create the more perfect union. And the other was the civil rights movements sort of suite of of laws that were passed and they are they are not in concert with the original constitution and they do not fit well. The Supreme Court appears ready to limit these things.
The Supreme Court on Wednesday appeared ready to limit how a key part of the Voting Rights Act long aimed at protecting equal opportunity for racial minority voters as applied to the drawing of state election maps. During oral arguments in a complicated case challenging the drawing of a second majority black district in Louisiana, the court's conservative majority suggested that race may have improperly predominated as a factor in its creation.
At the same time, it wasn't clear whether the majority of the court was prepared to issue a more sweeping ruling that any use of race as a factor in redistricting is unconstitutional. I think on its face, it is unconstitutional to do that sort of thing.
Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which we talked about yesterday, has been a guardrail against states, quote UN quote, packing black voters into districts and cracking communities of color into other districts with the aim of diluting their electoral influence. I actually don't like the way that we do voting maps. I think they should be done on a county wide basis. Like whatever's in the county should be what's in the county.
And that means that some rural areas are going to get lumped in with urban areas, but the urban areas, generally speaking, should represent themselves. If you live in a close, like a demographic consistent area, so be it. Then you get a representative and you could be 50% of the population of the state, but it doesn't mean that you should have 50% of the representation from that state because each area is supposed to have its own representation.
If you just happen to live really close to your neighbor, that's your problem. That's not my problem. It has nothing to do with me. That would be the way that I would take it. Here is maybe the worst take by any Supreme Court Justice. As a general rule, this woman can be counted on to have them. This is Katanji Jackson Browne or Katanji Brown Jackson, depending on what day it is and depending on how we're covering her.
She did an oral argument. My favorite thing about this woman, I guess, is that she continues to act like she's actually arguing the case. So she argues her version of the case nothing better than being a impartial arbiter, not trying to understand what the argument being made is, but making your own argument, which is what these people do. This is what the problem is with activist judges. It's even worse when they're dim bulbs like this lady.
She actually calls black people disabled because of their skin color. That's a real hot take in 2025. I don't think it goes over well. I guess I'm thinking of it of the fact that remedial action absent discriminatory intent is really not a new idea in the civil rights laws. And, and my kind of paradigmatic example of this is something
like the ADA. Congress passed the Americans with Disabilities Act against the backdrop of a world that was generally not accessible to people with disabilities. And so it was discriminatory in effect, because these folks were not able to access these buildings. And it didn't matter whether the person who built the building or the person who owned the building intended for them to be exclusionary. It that that's irrelevant.
Congress said the facilities have to be made equally open to people with disabilities if readily possible. I guess I don't understand why that's not what's happening here. The idea in Section 2 is that we are responding to current day manifestations of past and present decisions that disadvantage minorities and make it so that they don't have equal access to the voting system, right. They're they're disabled. In fact, we use the word disable in Milligan.
We say that's a way in which you see that these processes are not equally open. The time for that person is over. She scraped in as the last person into the Idiocracy. She's the last appointment that's going to make it in that way. I hope she is not a bright lady. And everything about that is weird and gross and the alternative and the answer and the broken brain sounds like this. And the people of Chicago are walking around with MAGA hats.
You have women, beautiful black women who who's walking around with the MAGA hats on and the people of Chicago are walking around with MAGA hats. You have women, beautiful black women walking around with MAGA hats. Please let the president in. And we don't care how he does it. Beautiful black women, like, who talks like that? It's so funny. It's so goofy that this is the person that broke their brains.
It really is. And, and you'll notice he doesn't claim that these beautiful black women are somehow disabled either because they're black. What a gross, weird, hot take. I didn't take it out of context. I just gave you about like 2 minutes of what she was talking about. So all that's really strange and weird. That doesn't mean everything the Trump administration does is great. It doesn't even mean like a lot of what they do is great. There's some really dumb bad takes.
This is something I'm not going to touch on too much, but there's a brewing story about how the United States is ready to support Argentina in the middle of a government shutdown. We're talking about sending 40 billion. There's been numbers like 20 billion floated around to Argentina. How is that America? First, The funny thing is, is that Trump branding is far more offensive to these people than Trump in reality.
Because if you recall, these people absolutely love giving money to people that are not America. They love sending money to not Americans and using your tax dollars without something you would have explicitly said you wanted to do and sending it out to anyone for gender theory queer studies out in, you know, Nairobi. What on earth are we talking about here? I'll put this over in the on the at calserafin.com if you guys want to be able to read the link here.
But the Treasury Secretary said we're talking about putting another $20 billion in private sector loans to Argentina, effectively doubling the value of AUS rescue plan. We're going to bail out their farmers. It's a private sector solution to Argentina's coming debt payments. But by private sector, what he means is the US public sector is going to fund it. Why? Why are we doing this?
the US government would arrange funding commitments from banks and sovereign wealth funds that cover 2nd $20 billion tranche to this company to this country. Rather, the comment is most likely designed to allay growing fears that US taxpayers will supply the funds. At the end of the day, if the federal government is getting involved and trying to arrange these deals, that actually is what fascism is about. By the way, folks, you guys get it.
The true definition of fascism is when the government comes in, puts pressure in on private, private businesses and has them do their will even though they're not an owner. It gives argument to these idiots that are out there making the crazy arguments and there's plenty of them making these arguments. This is a little video. This is going to come up again. I told you guys that was my No Kings rig, which I've got set up over here. This is the I'll reach off camera.
This is the silent backpack that we're going to be taking with us. I'm going to be taking with me. I might be bringing another person undisclosed who's going to keep an eye on my back. We're going to go out and do this stuff because these people are out there losing their minds about it and they have a right to protest. They just don't have a right to violent protest.
Here's the crazy thing. The same nonsensical position that we've heard about talking to journalists and we're going to get the truth and we're going to go out there and look for the money and Soros and this and all the nonsense you've heard from Patel and the others when it comes to going after Antifa. This is another reason why nothing's happening. This has already been done. We did this in 2020. We did it for a whole year. I saw this exact scene play out in Portland. I could drive.
I could drive Donald Trump and take his detail to the corner where I saw deliveries exactly like this video. This is from Nick Shirley. This is Antifa protesters, rioters being given supplies. FBI surveillance agents not only saw the delivery of supplies, but we track the people who took the supplies to where they went and then saw them distributed to people. And then those supplies ended up in the midst of a rally that turned into a riot. That's what Rico looks like, folks.
That's organized crime. The argument has already been made. It's already been proven. There are plenty of testimonial documents that are already in the files of FBI Portland. That's why I don't think these people are serious about this, unfortunately. I want them to be. I want you to see this video. I've seen this with my own eyes. This is a real thing. You have all this stuff that's getting dropped off right here.
You have all the inflatables as well that the people have been protesting in. A little strange. They have a U-Haul shipment full of all the stuff that's apparently have been taken away. So stuff's been coming in. There's still protesters out right now. It's like 4:00 PM right now, I believe. And the protesters are starting to show up here to the ICE facility in Portland. So you got people that are
protesting ICE. There's people that are all bent out of shape about it. These are the same people that were bent out of shape about George Floyd. They were the same people that were doing the Summer of Love and the BLM nonsense, which was also based on a lie. And again, what it comes down to is the brand of Donald Trump.
He's offensive to them to the point where their brains broke and they don't actually look at the actions of Donald Trump, which is not inherently that bad and actually doesn't really bother normal people. So you've got this unhinged group of people that have been completely cracked. That's why you end up at the town hall with Bernie Sanders and AOC doing what she just did. That's how you end up with Chris Murphy making a video like this, which I'll play in a second,
talking about no kings. That's how we got Joe Walsh supposedly like a Tea Party guy cracked and become an anti Trump person. Now if he was like Trump is not conservative enough and he's not doing concert, No, that's not the way he went. He went to the lefty weirdo thing. We're going to defend these idiots. We're doing dangerous stuff. They are doing dangerous stuff. They've been doing it for years. They just look for an excuse and they and then they launch it.
Here's Chris Murphy making the plea that Americans back the No Kings rally. I mean, I'm going to go out there. I think you guys should go out there too. Go walk around and just see what's going on. In some areas you'll find it's 100% organic and there are people that are just bought into the propaganda. They're the same type that show up on Piers Morgan and say black women cannot be racist. They're going to be those same people or the white women that
enable that sort of nonsense. And then there's going to be the people that are agitators that are really getting after it. And then there's going to be dummies like this story here that we have on the screen, which I'll read real quickly. There was a an interaction between a teenager in Massachusetts detained by ICE. The funniest thing about the
story, he's a teen boy. He was arrested for allegedly threatening another middle schooler taken into custody by ICE, who was taken in initially by police, who had a credible trip tip that a juvenile boy made a violent threat against another boy within our public school system. The mayor said that the boy was arrested and after an investigation, the officers found that they had a six to seven inch double sided knife on him at school.
Apparently no guns were found, so just knives which totally kill people just as much. The boy was taken to police custody. Then he was sent procedurally through fingerprints over to ICE to determine if he was an illegal entry and then ICE came and detained the boy.
We can read between the lines of what it says, but the mayor and the people that are the advocates for this kid would not comment on his immigration status, what grade he was in or what his name was, because obviously that would destroy their whole narrative. The second story is something that came out of Chicago in the last couple days about a 15 year old, which you're seeing on the screen right now, who was
arrested. Oh, no, he was 15 and he was arrested by ICE, Border Patrol agents, Homeland Security, federal agents and was detained. And they go, well, it's wrong. They threw him to the ground. He's a little a hole who was throwing eggs and he was throwing rocks at Bortac. You're lucky to be alive. I'll just be honest with you. Those guys are studs. Those guys are killers.
Their capability is very high. If you're dumb enough to throw eggs and rocks at federal agents in full tactical gear who are tacked up with multiple weapon systems on their body and you think you're going to get away with it, it's going to be fine. You're a dummy, and guess what, teenagers? It shouldn't ruin your life. It shouldn't be the end of you, but you probably should learn some consequences earlier than later, because you can't do that when you're 18.
You can't do it when you're 20. You can go to jail for a long time, especially if you didn't need damage, or you can be killed on the street because you've reached the threshold for deadly force, which is what you're doing when you start throwing rocks. I made that decision when I went into the riots in DC and in Portland.
I wasn't going to take a brick to the head and hope that I walked away conscious so that I didn't have to worry about whether or not I was going to make it home to my kids. If you throw bricks or rocks at people's heads, you are making a dumb decision. The consequences could be fatal. Don't do it. You need better parenting.
Apparently the federal court issued a rule strictly prohibiting federal officers from using tear gas or other riot patrol on protesters, journalists or onlookers except in equivalent circumstances to where the officer would be authorized to use deadly force. They've actually now said that less than lethal force is the same as deadly force. Guess what? They these people don't know the difference. A rock it. It's crowd control. It's also a deadly force
scenario. It's pretty actually easy to articulate deadly force. That's one of the things that I learned in the Federal Law Enforcement Academy. The broad circumstances under which you can actually justify it if you are so inclined, is very broad. So good, they've now limited these people and you're going to have it like a really significant danger put on the public because you're not going to be able to use less lethal
earlier. And they're only going to be able to use it when it's already escalated to the point where they can use lethal. So they could tear gas him or they could shoot him in the chest. And that's what these kids are going to end up fighting out. And a lot of these people have never been living in a in a world where there are any consequences. This is a parenting problem. So that stupid soft hearted everybody is a good person at heart.
It's just a bad system. And these mean federal, federal immigration authorities, it's not going to fly when they have to shoot the first person. And again, we talked about it yesterday. But that whole idea of the Podesta plan where somebody steps over the line, steps into a deadly force scenario and someone has to shoot, then you're going to get some pretty aggressive reactions, I suspect. And these guys are talking it up. All the people on the left that are talking it up and acting
like tyranny is coming at you. OK. You're going to take responsibility. Your heated rhetoric has resulted in political assassinations, attempted assassinations. It's going to involve a bunch of people at a rally that get hyped up. And when people get together in a rally and get hyped up, they are much more susceptible to being agitated as a crowd. Look at January 6. We know that that was not exactly the way that those people behaved the rest of their lives.
Sometimes the group mentality does something. Here's Chris Murphy. He's urging people to go and protest. So the Big No Kings protest is coming up on Saturday. This is a really important day. It's a day for this country to stand up and say that we've had enough with the destruction of democracy, the building of Trump's censorship state, the evisceration of our healthcare. But it's pretty incredible how Republicans are showing their true colors. They're showing us how much they
hate democracy. They're showing us how much they hate free speech. The rhetoric has ramped up from Republican leaders in the last few days. These aren't sort of fringe actors in the conservative movement. These are the leaders of the House Republican Conference calling the protesters that are going to show up on Saturday terrorists saying that no kings is a hate rally. What Republicans are basically telling you is that they hate free speech.
They hate free speech when it isn't conservative speech, when it isn't pro Trump speech. If you offer any criticism of this government then you hate America. That's ridiculous, UN American and unpatriotic. The fact is, our country was founded on the idea that everyone has a right, a God-given right, a constitutionally protected right, to speak up and protest your government, especially when you think they have become
lawless and corrupt. And so the idea that the people who are showing up to protest Trump are terrorists trying to get you to stay home, they're trying to get you to believe that simply by peacefully protesting your government, you're inciting violence that. Yeah, some of them are going to be inciting violence, folks. That's just a fact. And I've been in these things and they change real quickly. And it doesn't take very many of them. And some of them are actually funded.
There's no question in my mind because they have trucks that show up and there's a funding behind it. That's the faith the case. Make sure you're subscribed over to YouTube. Make sure you're subscribed to Rumble if you're watching on those things make you guys give us a like if you would. I will thank you right now in advance. If you're listening on the audio platforms, you may hear another Spotify ad right there.
We've gone a little bit long, so let's go ahead and do that right there as well and follow us at kyleseraphinshow.com or on locals Kyle seraphin.com. If you guys want to be able to be part of our call in show, I'm going to do our last story of the day and then I'm going to give you something fun.
It's a palate cleanse. I told you we wouldn't let this story go. There's been more and more nefarious information because again, the the information that came out from the Secret Service early on about the Chinese SIM farms and these 100,000 SIM farms on five different locations outside of AUS city. There was never it was always a bigger problem than what was being alleged. Chinese SIM farms are radicalizing Americans and
destabilizing a society. So says intelligence experts who spoke to the Blaze. This is a story that is really worth your read over at Blaze Media. Type in AA slash news, you'll get to it. It's Steve Baker and Johanneman's piece was released yesterday afternoon that the sub headline here is There's a chat bot that can pretend to be 27 different personalities and it's
designed to groom you. Swarms of sophisticated chat bots enabled by China are embedded in platforms like Reddit and Discord. If only I can remember what was the name of the platform that the alleged shooter of Charlie Kirk was on? Oh, it's called Discord. That's right. Got it. These bots are designed to radicalize America's use, foment political division and encourage violence, according to
intelligence experts. The ability to create millions, I'll say that again, millions of online personas which can invade chat groups and social media sites in order in essence to destabilize American Society is one of the most sinister uses of these Chinese built SIM cards like the one that was shut down in New York City in September, The Blaze News has learned. Our population is literally being divided and radicalized to
destroy our own nation. They're using SIM networks to initiate social media accounts by the millions. The person that you are arguing with is likely not even a real person. I continue to find that out. I do not feel upset about it. There's less of it on Twitter than on other places, but Facebook is invaded. Many of these places are completely compromised by Chinese color revolution type actors that are not even human beings. Social media accounts by the
millions. Because they have the ability to do multi factor authentication. They can literally create millions of digital personas that seem real. The American government has been clueless thus far. That's what the FBI should be doing. Not 8000 bullshit arrests for ICE and 2000 indictments for violent crime in cities that don't actually need that. They already have the ability to do it.
They've chosen not to. The FB is unique capability is long term complex criminal investigations, including against things like nation state actors. But we're not using our tools for nation state probability and and for for nation state protection. We're doing the lowest hanging, stupid fruit. The biggest issue is that the political class of America and the United States government officials are completely clueless to this a threat, said said their source.
Our population is literally being divided and radicalized to destroy a nation, and this is provable, but I don't think it would require so much more investigation to be able to show people even on our side, how bad it is they don't want to do the work. The process starts manually in China and has a deep reach into American Society. They've got thousands of people in China that set these things
up manually. And then they use really sophisticated AI, like a ChatGPT type thing to spread certain themes and certain messages, all designed to divide the country and create division. And it radicalizes people when you find out that the youth in America are being radicalized not by other people, but by Chinese SIM farm bots. And they are acting as though they are real.
And they are goading them into real actions because they think it's a hot Asian girl or a, you know, it's a attractive young man who's also going to be at the protest. I'll see you there. I'll be in black. This started with a swatting incident at a Secret Service official's residence. But it is clearly a much bigger and more scary program. And we are seeing the results of
it on the street. And I expect that I'll probably see the results of it on the streets of Austin on this Saturday. We're not going to be done with the story. We'll cover more of it now that the story has been released. I'll probably have to have Steve Baker and Johanneman come back. Maybe we'll do A tag team with those guys to be able to break down how scary this stuff is. This is really bad. And again, it's unique to people who do not have a real understanding of real life.
Like many of you. If you've never been catting, if you've never done something stupid, if you never pick up the phone and called a real grocery store, talk to a real person and ask for a Sir Walter Riley in a can and all the other dumb things. Is your refrigerator running and right? My dad used to talk about you've
got pickled pigs feet. If you haven't done these things in real life and know that there are real human beings on the other end out there and you're used to just interacting online and social media and your thumbs are doing the talking most of the time you're probably not talking to real people out there. And a lot of the young people are in in serious danger of being Co opted into this nonsense. The danger is they don't have enough real world experience to know that that's not what real
people are. And the craziest part is, is that young people start acting like the digital life that they experience is real life. Which is probably why you end up as a 15 year old throwing rocks and eggs at an ICE agent or at a freaking Border Patrol guy who's carrying an AR15 and is trained to be able to take out real threats. I think that's how that stupidity happens. I don't want it for this country and I definitely don't want it for any of you. So anyway, be aware.
Protect your children, protect your grandbabies. Know that this story, go read the story. It'll be over on kyleseraphin.com. It'll be in the comments on YouTube and it'll be on the comments over on Rumble. Read the story for yourself and get yourself squared away with understanding that when you tell your kids, you tell your, your, your friends and you tell your your compatriots that these online personas are oftentimes
not real. There's a lot of documentation that they are not, and they're actually much more nefarious than than just trying to get your credit card number or much more nefarious than they're just trying to waste your time with engagement on the platform. Some of them are actually going out there to try to help divide this country, which is why if you get offline, you'll immediately feel better about
everything. I promise you that I can't do it because what I do right now on this podcast, but I'm encouraging all of you. Take a couple hours a day, disconnect from this nonsense. It turns out the world is actually pretty good out there and locally, it will stay good. And how do we know the federal government shutdown and it's still OK? That's where we're at. That's the show for today. I hope you guys appreciate it. Enjoy it. I hope you had some fun with me.
We're going to play a fun clip here. I say fun because it's Ron Swanson, my favorite character in a comedy talking about government. We're going to end the show with that. Make sure you like this video before you disappear. Here's some Ron Swanson time. Am I interrupting something important? Impossible. I work for the government. Chuck E Cheese could run the parks. I think that all government is a
waste of taxpayer money. It's never too early to learn that the government is a greedy piglet that suckles on a taxpayer's teat until they have sore, chapped nipples. OK. Guys, we are going to be sightseeing today. Andy and Ben are going to go to their meeting and then we're going to go back to the hotel for. Lunch. And I. Will spend the day getting to know London's history. History began on July 4th, 1776. Everything before that was a mistake.
With current and projected deficits, we need to cut expenditures by 32%. Let's make it an even 40. Oh, that's not necessary. Slash it. Slash it. I am an official member of a task force dedicated to slashing the city budget. Just saying that gave me a semi right off the bat. We sell City Hall. Let somebody turn it into a large gas station or ATJ Maxx. Ron that is a very creative idea. But we don't want to sell any of our major assets because we don't want to lose out on any
future revenue streams. I hear that. Don't worry, I have tons more ideas. OK. So sorry, new ringtone don't cut anything without me. Ron Swanson, it is my pleasure to inform you that you are a finalist for the job of Assistant City Manager. Chris, I feel I should remind you that I do not believe that the position or the entire
government should exist. That said, you'd be a fool not to pick me. I'll probably post this over on our page too, because that was a lot like my quiet monologue in my head when I worked for the government. I always told people after the first couple days, I'd be more than happy to be the guy, the last guy out the door and padlock the door shut because I just didn't see why we did it in the first place. That's it for today. I hope you guys had a good time. Maybe you learn something.
Maybe you have a little bit more concern about online, maybe have a little bit more of a laugh. And just remember, this is not these people's first gay rodeo. As we touch back, if you didn't watch that show yesterday, do it for me. I'd appreciate it. All right, God bless all of you. Thanks for being here. Look forward to seeing you again
tomorrow. We're not going to have a friendly Friday because apparently FBI agents are getting paid, which means C friend is back on the payroll, even if he's doing the American radicals right now over on Rumble. I'll send you there if you're watching. God bless. See you soon. Thanks for listening to the Kyle Seraphin show, streamed live weekdays on rumble.com/kyle Seraphin.
