It's Friendly Friday w/ @RealSteveFriend | EP 240

Take a look behind the curtain with a real whistle blower on American Patriot prepared to embrace the uncomfortable truth because this program has no time for comforting lies. Here is civil liberties enthusiasts, Second Amendment defender and recovering FBI agent Kyle Seraphin. Well, hello my friends, and welcome to the Kyle Seraphin

show. We're going to give this just a second because it looks like it looks like we're having some streaming issues on Rumble and we had some issues with the Internet here at the house. So just give it a second. Go ahead. And we're going to wait for the live chat to catch up with us here on rumble.com/kyle Seraphin. Folks, if you are not joining us there, that is where the live chat lives.

Looks like we got you guys on board in the live chat down there. Again, if you want to join us, this is where you go. rumble.com/kyle Seraphin. Thanks so much for giving us a little bit of patience and we appreciate that today is February the 9th and it must be 830 and it must be some screwing, screwing around going

on outside. I got a no notice, just an outage, just a straight up Steve Friend disappeared outage, which only happens when I need to talk to yet another suspendable. That's how it works, guys. We get the suspendables together and things get screwy. We're going to be bringing on Steve Friend. We're going to talk a little bit about Putin and the interview that happened last night with Tucker Carlson. Yes, I watched the entire thing. Not everybody does it, but I did.

I'm not sure what I think, honestly. I actually don't know if I think that it was brilliant, but it was OK. And I think we learned a couple little interesting little nuances. They were probably like maybe 4 minutes of it that, you know, spread out through the two and two hours and change that were important. We had a special counsel report coming out. That's pretty damning to the Biden administration, specifically to Joe Biden, who's ancient and doesn't know what's going on.

A couple of little things in there and we're going to do a little walk down memory lane. We're going to be bringing on Steven one second. Let me say first thanks to a sponsor and then we'll get him on here. Let's start off with our friends at contingency Medical. Again, that's contingency medical.com.

Steve, can I hear you? Did you unmute? I did unmute, I'm professional. So professional, thanks for joining me today. What do you think about the little scurry that happens with our Internet whenever you and I get together?

It is very unique. It seems to just always occur right about when we're about 5 minutes out from going live. And I was excited because of this morning in Daytona, we had a Sonic boom happen because SpaceX dropped some of their equipment into the ocean. And for a minute there I thought like up Red Dawn is upon us, no friendly Friday. But it turns out the problem is on your end.

If there was, yeah, this is the first, by the way, because this is the world's most stable Internet connection that I've ever seen. It has had 0 problems, 0 issue, 0 outages without like major advance notice, and even that has been like 10-15 minutes at a time. We have Spectrum, which I've never been a big fan of them, but I'm kind of a fan today until just now. I've never seen them automatically just drop.

And by the way, I looked out the window, I don't see any unmarked Comcast vans that have nothing to do with it. We do have AT&T installing fiber in our neighborhood. Very weird. Look, I've got a a ton of clips. In fact, I had to add buttons. My board is full of clips. And this is a clip of I think, I think this is the clip of the Sera fans getting excited about a little friendly Friday action.

It's also conservatives getting excited about Tucker interviewing Vladimir Putin. Are you ready for this? Got like a little like live. View into the the waiting party for this. So here we go. I can you name the movie that that came from? No, I mean I have a pretty good library Rolodex of movie knowledge. I'm not sure on that one. It's Wesley Snipes and Blade. You remember Blade? We walked. No, I never saw Blade. I never did. It's the Bloodrave.

They walk in there and everyone's doing that thing and they're dancing, they're raving out and they're like, then they turn on the sprinklers and all the humans get coated in like blood that they got from a blood bank. It's a really dark movie, but pretty fun.

And then this is the FBI and the security division and even maybe all the political leftists that are out there worrying about both Tucker interviewing Putin, but also Kyle and Steve get together every Friday. This is what happens at about 8:28 central time. It's looks something like this. We can only handle so much of that. Did you guys see how many people they're so upset? All these lefties, they were all shrieking and breaking down.

They were falling apart. All right, You didn't watch the Tucker thing, correct? So we're going to share with you some. Questions. I watched about half of it. OK, that's a lot because it was it was a long interview. What do you make of let me get you started off? What do what do we make of the meltdown on the political left about him even going and having an interview with the world leader, which used to be sort of

like standard? I it's, it's always the same double standard that we see that it's just normal at this point. Like it's gravity. We just kind of have to accept it. I remember I was actually thinking back when I was in high school, so you probably were in college, remember when Dan Rather went over and interviewed Saddam Hussein and that was a significant moment where he was going there and, and people on the right were like, how dare you? How dare you?

So it's obviously flipped from one side to the other at this point, but certainly a very reasonable thing to do as a journalist. And he's very relevant. Tucker Carlson could bring a lot of eyeballs. So if Vladimir Putin is going to be put under the microscope, you you'd want to send one of your better ones over there. And I think Tucker Carlson is just as skilled as he's as anybody on the left could could offer. You speak about a lot of eyeballs.

His interview has been live for less than 24 hours. It went live sometime around 5:30, My time 525. It has over 107 million impressions, which makes it one of the most watched things on the Internet in that period of time. And it's not like a really sexy thing to watch. It's it's two men sitting at a table and a translator speaking. And by the way, did you know Tucker? Does he speak Russian? Like, how does he keep track of what's going on there?

Do. They, I don't know how that was working because yeah, the, the am I the only had the translator on and and Tucker was just kind of like going along. OK. And then do we think there's any possibility, is there any chance that Vladimir Putin doesn't speak fluent English? No, none whatsoever. I I think that he probably in his interactions with diplomats does bring a translator just to be sure that there's no mixed signals because you just have certain, certain sayings in, in

one language or another. You don't want to have mixed messages when you're dealing with international leaders. But at the same time, he's a pretty smart dude. I imagine that he is fluent in English, but doing the whole Sammy Sosa go to Congress, I'm going to pretend that I can't speak English because I want to be very specific with my words. I, I think it's 100% like one of these little power plays that he does, he makes people, it gives him extra time too, right?

Because there's a translation that comes at him and he's like and it and it all seems on the up and I know he knows exactly what's going on in that room. In the very early parts of the interview where Tucker was actually trying to get to why are you giving me this history lesson about the borders in the

1600s? And he kept, he kept being able to just talk over him and do that power play thing, that Ann Coulter debate move where they just keep talking and don't care what the question is. I'm going to talk about what I want to talk about. And that's just a politician thing at that point. It's a politician thing, but it's also, you know, he's he's kind of like the the most powerful guy in that part of the world. And he doesn't have to listen to anybody else.

And he can tell Tucker to go away. And he's in this huge room, which echoes also his his translator must have been dubbed afterwards. OK, so let me summarize the interview for those of you who did not sit down and put the two hours and 7 minutes or whatever it is. Essentially, as Steve just alluded to, it's 30 minutes or so, which Tucker says right up front of history lessons going back into the 8 hundreds and roughly the thousand year glorious existence of the state

of Ruse, the Russian state. And he makes some interesting claims about territorial boundaries, which go back to 1654. Big time power play, big time, long history, big time. You know what I took away from all that though? More than anything else I took. Away. I know what I did, but go ahead. I walked away thinking this man at least knows a bunch of stuff that he can speak fluently for 30 minutes about a topic.

And I don't, I don't have any way to Fact Check his history because I already don't have any interest. To be honest, I don't really want to go back and see like, oh, are all those dates correct? But he was specifically calling out things that he believes are part of his political heritage. And we don't have people that can do that in office, not in Congress, not in the Senate, not in the White House. We don't have it in our our press corps.

I don't think people in America that are out there telling us what's going on in this country have anywhere near the depth of appreciation, knowledge or historical context that Vladimir Putin showed. Being a guy who sits behind a microphone for your for your day job now, how much prep do you think you would have to do to do 30 minutes uninterrupted about the history of territorial disputes in Russia? Well, it just depends on if it's a topic I'm aware of, right.

So if we wanted to go and discuss like a territorial conflicts that the United States has been involved in or that U.S. military conflicts, I could do that probably closed off the top of my head if we were just discussing it the way that he did. But it's only because I care about that. I also don't know very many people that are less than five years younger than me and below that that do that whenever I talk about it. So here's a here's a great example.

My youngest sister has a master's degree and she I think she's going to work on a PhD and she's sharp. You're like all the Seraphins are sharp. Lest anybody think otherwise. All the Seraphins are pretty sharp. She's a lefty though, so she doesn't make any sense. And she lives in New York City. And unfortunately for her, we had a sit down little chat where I asked the simple question, Could you tell me what decade

the Vietnam War happened in? Now you get 2 shots at that right in the last 100 years because there's actually 2 decades if you want to. If you 1960s, I'll give it to you. 1970s, I'll give it to you. She couldn't name it. I said what about what about the Korean War? No idea. What about World War 2? You get 2 on that one because we'll give you even the non American involvement on that. 30s and 40s. No, nothing, no, no. What about World War One?

I mean, Spanish American War, nothing, Spanish Inquisition, like, what are we doing? Like we don't. She has no context. And so she has no concept or context. And then you've got the guy who's the leader of Russia out there basically going back 1000 years into history and talking about the founding of the nation that he believes and all the sort of iterations. Now, did he fluff a bunch of this stuff?

Yeah, for sure. Like he obviously massaged history in favor and it is very Russian centric. But let's add this little piece together. Mike Waller said it the other day. He's not a fascist and he's not a communist. He's a nationalist. He's a checkist is what he called it. And I think we'll have Mike Waller to come on after that interview because that's kind of an interesting little eyeball. But, and I know you've talked to Mike Waller as well. That seems perfectly reasonable.

I listen to him. He's a man who loves that country, even if he doesn't love all the people in it. And he seems like he's doing OK. Why? Why would he negotiate with the with the US? I'm going to drop a couple bombs on you from the videos. But if you say say a couple little things out there and then we'll, we'll start with the video clips of which I have a

bunch. I I was struck by his cognitive abilities, his just ability compared to our octogenarians who run this country that I was also, it struck me how he was essentially making a very left wing argument for this is stolen land that we always hear from the Native Americans who are flipping the bird in South Dakota saying this is stolen land F America. And I'm just like, you just picked an arbitrary date back hundreds of years ago and you're like, Yep, this is our borders end.

So it should be now. I mean, that's that's consistent with what Jensaki would argue was in America. So Jensaki's not giving up her. She's not going to give up her brownstone or her apartment and give it over to anybody. That was like from the whatever Manhattan tribes. No, no, we call her Ginger Gurbles.

I I call her Peppermint Patty. I know, but I like Ginger Gurbles. She's she's a firmly, firmly planted that Ukrainian flag emoji all over her social media presence and she's never going to reconsider that. That's true. Let's do clips. Let's start with this and then we're also going to cover a little bit of special counsel, which I took a bunch of snaps. I didn't actually read the entire special counsel because I

had no time to do that today. But what I did do is grab stuff in the executive summary, which basically is the the, the findings. And then of course they have details after that. All right, clip #1 coming at you looking for library action. As a human being, so many people look up to you, they rely on you. No one can imagine how hard that is. Do you do do anything for your to yourself?

Are you ever able to take a minute to to read or to listen to music or something to sort of give yourself that a moment? I have such moments, important to be in silence, to be alone and early, early in the morning when there are no sounds and sounds, no people. No, not nobody. I mean the people, people, our staff. I mean no, nobody is is in my cabinet. Nobody. I can just read, think, think. And the music house? Really. What? Music do you like?

Oh I like ACDCACDCI don't understand all the words because of. My music, yeah. I like energy. Maybe it's it's too old the music for. I understand. I love it. No, no, it's it's important to have some, some sometimes at 6-7 in the morning, some some trainings, yes, work out what to do something with the with, with music or such music which gives you energy for all the day. You can only watch that for so long.

OK, The question has been asked online and by the way, that's Max Evans on Twitter. So if you guys are not following him and you want to see some of this comedy, pretty good. The question is, is it easy or is it even possible to do a real interview if you are busy fellating the subject? Can you actually ask any questions?

No, it's mutually exclusive. You either have to be a hard line journalist doing the Mike Wallace thing that he was renowned for doing, or you're there just doing propaganda, which is what she was doing. She's asking what sort of music he listens to when he works out. I thought he was under threat of assassination and the nation is on the verge. This guy's got time for cardio in the morning that he can jam out to Hwy. for hell. Like that's ridiculous, but he's

over there. I. Don't understand it in. Persons. I don't know all the words, but I like the energy. The energy I've been making me feel strong and I make and then I go and avoid. Assassination squad from Russia. Aren't they telling him at this point that he's stealing too much money that we're sending over there?

He needs to stop. Somebody believe that, that the DoD has said that or so many of the Pentagon was like, hey, we know that this is a leaky bucket that we're sending over there, but it's too leaky at this point. There's absolutely nothing getting to the front line. That's why hundreds of thousands of your own young men have been just sent to their deaths. You, you saw Tucker Carlson say it in the, the lead up to it. It's something we played

yesterday. He basically said the reason that we're doing this interview with Putin is because one, nobody else is doing it and it's their jobs. And #2 all of the coverage of Zelinsky has been and I'm wearing the Z Special today, by the way, I'm wearing the Z special shirt. Oh. Cycles In Sync, brother. Oh, we are lined. Up and that's weird that's super weird I just.

Put this on laundry cycles. Yeah, laundry cycles are are are synced up. It's quite it's quite funny because this is not journalism, as he said, this is propaganda and it kills and it's a lot of money and we're spending it in a big way, running that running that insane debt clock up against Americans, which of course is quite interesting because even even Vladimir Putin brought that up. All right, so let's let's keep focusing.

I, I, I didn't mean to tease you with that ridiculous puff piece, but just watching her facial expressions and she's so excited to be there. It makes you want to gag. Obviously the, the chat was was agreeing they were disgusted and they were making some now noises that are synonymous with some of the other things I just mentioned a second ago.

But let's let's, let's get into the actual interview that went on with apparently the 1st man in the world, which the political laughs lost their mind about in your peppermint panty. And my ginger gobbles was essentially berating Tucker Carlson even for having the audacity to speak to him, which, you know, that's kind of what you're supposed to do. You're supposed to talk to bad people. I'd talk to him in a heartbeat. I would love it. I would find that very interesting.

He probably would. I think he's he's a scary dude, but he's an interesting dude. All right, here we go. Oh, he's a straight sociopath. There's no question about that. But like I said, the last time we talked, he just wouldn't turn around when he was putting on the raincoat, you know? But you'd still be able to, yeah. Yeah, you never want to put your exactly. You don't want to put your back on him when he goes Christian

Bale on you. But still, like you could talk to him about about Phil Collins in studio. All right, here we go. Who blew up Nordstrom? You for sure. I was busy that day. Nate, do you have? Do you have? I did not blow up North Stream. Thank you though. Who? Was it? Who was Leichner much? But it was Leichner. You personally may have an alibi, but the CIA has no such alibi. Did you have evidence that NATO

or the CIA did it? You know, I won't get into details, but people always say in such cases, look for someone who is interested. But in this case, we should not only look for someone who is interested, but also for someone who has capabilities. Because there may be many people interested, but not all of them are capable of sinking to the bottom of the Baltic Sea and carrying out this explosion.

These two components should be connected who is interested and who is capable of doing it. But I'm confused, I mean, that's the biggest act of industrial terrorism ever and it's the largest emission of CO2 in in history. OK, so if you had evidence and presumably given your security services, rental services, you would that NATO, the US, CIA, the West did this, Why wouldn't you present it and win a

propaganda victory? In the war of propaganda, it is very difficult to defeat the United States, because the United States controls all the world's media and many European media. The ultimate beneficiary of the biggest European media are American financial institutions. Don't you know that? So it is possible to get involved in this work? But it is cost prohibitive, so to speak. We can simply shine the spotlight on our sources of information and we will not

achieve results. It is clear to the whole world what happened and even American analysts talk about it directly. So when we start looking at this, his, his statements, first of all, he doesn't sound like he has the proof. Or if he does, he's certainly not willing to come forward with it, which means maybe sources and methods or maybe doesn't have it at all. Fine, I'm still trying to get over the fact that we're still wearing the same shirt and it's

like throwing me off. But his, his analysis is spot on. It's the way that we look for sources. It's like, do you have access? Do you have motivation, right, access and placement. We're looking for the same thing. Who has the willingness and the ability to do this thing? Ability is a big, it's a big bar. And then who stands to gain from it and what does it show? So he's asking the questions that make the most sense. That's more sense than I've heard Joe Biden make in the last

three years on anything. Well, Joe Biden was the one who let the cat out of the bag on the fact that the United States most likely were the perpetrators of blowing up the pipeline. He said, well, we'll, we'll, we'll handle that. We'll, we'll, that'll be handled. It'll be no no longer existing before his aides could come in and usher away the media. And I believe that there were naval assets in the area right around the time, US naval assets in the area that that when the

explosion happened. So there's some circumstantial evidence that's in the public sphere. I do think that Putin was 100% correct when he said I can't win a propaganda war. He doesn't need to win a propaganda war in his own country. I think he's probably got pretty much universal support already. What's going to uptick it by a point, You know one. But internationally, he's basically has no access to the media. Tucker Carlson is now 2 years

plus into this. Yeah, it's just about two years since the war started, the first time he's had access to American media. So what's who's he going to scream this to and, and advertise it to? He's completely blacked out. He's essentially been shadow banned. The yeah, the access to the media is weird and the idea that he's not going to take on the United States and its own game in propaganda. I think you're right. Like 1, you don't have to

convince the Russian people. They they're already on board with at least what he's saying. They aren't. They're on board with that guy. And then, or at least the ones that are going to speak out publicly are. And then the second piece of it is, is that, yeah, what are you, what are you going to win? Like what? What does he stand to game? His entire interview basically painted this long history of. I think it's worth looking at it from the other side, the deception that goes on.

He mentioned that he talked to Bill Clinton and then we have no way to verify this, but it actually sounds fairly plausible. It's the same kind of thing that we heard from Mike Waller that Russia wanted to join the

community of nations. They kind of when he was there, he said he was there when they were shutting down the Soviet Union and, and transitioning into the, you know, the fragmented states that they were looking to say like, OK, now they're going to accept us like we were the enemy, but we renounce that. We've kind of basically surrendered and said we fail. We're ready to become the part of the community of nations. They expected to be part of what

the West does. And the West never left the Cold War because there's an awful lot of money in it, I think. That's it. I was actually just thinking about, Do you remember it was when Barack Obama was running for re election in 2012 and they made a big deal about his call to send in the Seals to kill Osama bin Laden. And they're like, it was the gutsiest decision ever been made. And everybody on the right was like rolling their eyes. Are you kidding me?

Like it took you a month to decide whether or not you're going to go kill the worst terrorist in the world. That's ridiculous. But it actually was because he knew there was a lot of money going into that war. And if you took out the reason that we were involved in that war, that we were told why are we going to still be in Afghanistan? All those military contracts that there's a question about why we're having them.

And I think that Putin talking about dealing with Bill Clinton and saying, hey, I want to come into the community of nations here and this Cold War can be over and we can be friends now while there's a lot of money at stake to keeping this perception of an enemy. And Russia could still be the bad guy. So I think when you examine it from his side of things, he's probably right.

And then he also mentioned he did the same thing with Bush and and had similar sort of RIP offs that essentially he gone forward. And the story with Clinton was is that he went to Clinton. Clinton's like, oh, are you interested in NATO? Because he he talked about could we join NATO? And the statement was is like, yeah, that sounds pretty reasonable.

Are you interested? And it's like, yeah, I was interested in so much as that would represent a real feeling of of of connection between two nations if you start a treaty alliance. Here's the other thing. The fact that NATO even still exists when it existed specifically to combat an organization that no longer exists to me, it's a lot like what I heard from from Waller

talking about. And a lot of this is going to be Mike Waller memories for me. But he mentioned that the Franklin School or the Frankfurt School rather sort of continues on its mission, even though the mission that it was serving is no longer around and it's now launched on its own. It's like, it's like the the Captain America movies.

What are they called? The The Avenger series where they're dealing with what is it, Red Hat, Red Skull, and he's and it's the what is the name of the organization there? I can't. Remember, it's a hydra. It's a hydra. And Hydra basically grows out of the Nazis. The Nazis no longer exist. But then Hydra is like got a life of his own. And this program is kind of have a life of his own. NATO is like that, but for money, because there's a ton of money involved in it. There's a ton of military

compact. And then like, who are they, who they defend against Russia? Like anybody that's worked the Russian threat. And I used to work on the floor where that happened. And I talked to those folks, all the people that describe to me Russia doesn't mean that they're not a significant capable enemy if if they choose to be an enemy. But they said every single thing they do is basically punching way above their weight. They're a country of 150 million people.

They have an. Incredible territory, massive rural spaces, tons of natural resources. But like, their industry is not nearly as developed as it could be for what it is. And they punch above their weight in cyber and in weapons and all the other kind of things, mostly because they look at the United States as an existential threat. And that goes back 100 years. And so that didn't transition 30 years ago the way we were told. We still think the Russians are the enemies.

We still have a pop culture notion that I kind of have a unique perspective on because my wife is from Ukraine, so she speaks Russian. And anytime we're watching some sort of action movie, she just rolls her eyes. She's like, why is the bad guy always Russian? Why, why? And because that accent just sounds so nefarious. And it just, it pulls on our heartstrings that we all still deep down believe that like Ivan Drago and Rocky Balboa was the end of the Cold War.

Like the reason that the United States won was because he knocked him out in the 12th round. And the man who does all the workouts in the in like sort of like the old barn, the takedown tobacco barn, is the is the guy. And apparently nobody told Rocky he could go do that in Tahoe. He had to go to Russia. You. Have to go to Russia. Yeah, if you want to lift, lift piles of rocks, you got to go to Russia. Everybody knows that. That's standard stuff, buddy.

All right, so that was 1 little piece. We got a couple other little little snippets from this Let's see here video #5 let's kind of just keep rolling through. Like I said, a couple little interesting tastes of this interview. It's probably worth a watch if you're on a really long drive. But here, here's some snippets for you guys to get more of a taste of it. Do the United States need this? What for thousands of miles away from your national territory, don't you have anything better

to do? You have issues on the border, issues with migration, issues with the national debt, more than $33 trillion. We have nothing better to do, so you should fight in Ukraine. Wouldn't it be better to negotiate with Russia, make an agreement already understanding the situation that is developing today? That's an interesting point. It's a shrewd, shrewd politician. He knows that he can appeal to significant portions of the American population by making

that message. I mean that guy sounds like he's 2 seconds away from putting a Make America Great Again hat on, doesn't he? Yeah, he might be. He's like, why don't you just be America first and get out of my business? I don't disagree with a lot of the points he's made, essentially walking up to that. He's like, you guys are spending a ton of money on this war. It's a proxy war, you know, And then the question, and Tucker, to his credit, asked some very specific questions.

Are you interested in invading Poland? He was like, absolutely not. Like, why would I want to do that? Like he laid out his sort of historical perspective. Whether we believe him or not is another animal, by the way. But he laid out this historical perspective, basically saying that like, no, the Poles have been separated us from like 1000 years and they're not the tribe of Russians, but the Ukrainians are.

And that one and two and one in three people have family relations and business connections and huge amounts of trade goes back and forth. And his essential argument throughout this entire interview was that all this problem, all the problems that he sees, 1A fundamental distrust of the West because of the way that they were treated on his end.

Probably no disagreements there. And the second thing is, is that there was a coup d'etat that goes all the way back to the end of Bush, beginning of Obama. And it continued on at the major push happened in 2014, which we're aware of. The CIA has been basically pulling the strings over in Ukraine, which is kind of a right wing talking point at this point. You're like I said, you're correct in in your interesting little assessment just because of your household connection. What?

What are the conversations you and your wife are having about this? You know, when it first broke off, I think she was genuine, genuinely concerned about the humanitarian cost. She still had family there and friends, but I remember having conversations with her where I was definitely in line of we need to be non interventionist. It doesn't help our kids if we get involved in this war.

I think she's sort of come around to understanding my line of thinking because her familial connections have sort of gotten out of dodge the disruptions of their lives. Just they're not at risk anymore. But I remember her telling me like, yeah, it's it's kind of a, you know, crap whole country. And Russia is like the skinny kid at fat camp as far as like, it's also kind of a crappy country, but the benefits are better.

So people are kind of OK with Russia coming in And the people that stayed around were OK with it and the people who weren't kind of left. And you feel bad for the humanitarian cause where you just your whole life you had to uproot and move to a different country. But it's just the nature of, of the world, right? Like it's just one people conquering another people. These borders are, we can't go back to 1634 and say like, those are the borders that we always have to stick with.

That's just not how things go. I tend to agree with that. However, if things do go sideways, we are going to do a quick ad rate here. Steve friend, and I'm going to say thanks to my friends overhead for Patriots. And if you are in a world where things get sideways, you're going to make sure you have calories, you make sure you have comms. These are the things you can do at the number 4 patriots.com/kyle for patriots.com/kyle. I've got my last one sitting

here. This is the creamy rice and vegetable dinner. You guys easy to use, simple, packed for up to 25 years. You guys can just get calories. You can get your continuity comms, whether it be a power device, whether it be a solar generator. You can go to the number 44 patriots.com with the promo code Kyle. We keep saying it, prepare or

repair. I bet you there's some people who didn't see that coming that are living either in Eastern Europe or maybe in some of these other little areas that have gotten crappy. And you wonder like, hey, what if I had like a year's worth of food stashed away from my family? Would it, would it make my ability to make decisions a little bit more sane and a little bit more protected? The obvious answer, go ahead and get yourself prepared. The repair part is way more

expensive. You will trade a lot more dollars for the things you need in a time of crisis. Again, for patriots.com/kyle, go ahead and figure out what your preparations look like. Assess your risk because it's 72 two hours. Is it a month? Is it 3 months? Is it a year? You guys can get all those things over there and use our promo code Kyle at checkout. And let's do a little bit more with Steve. Steve, I got some more clips

here. So this may be one of the last ones coming up. And then we've got a, we've got a whole bunch to cover down on this special counsel, which I've given you a bunch of reading material in your in your inbox. Let's let's take a look at this one real quick too. So you can pick and choose. What it came down to for me is this. I see homeless folks in the streets of New York all the time that are American citizens. I damn sure see them in California.

We've got poor, impoverished, starving people who were born and raised in this nation. How in the hell do we come up with a 5253 million dollar pilot pro program for illegals, but folks who are here legally are born here. We don't have enough of them. Just like we could come up with billions for Ukraine but somehow, some way we can't fix the homeland problem. I'm down for helping Israel. I'm down for helping address the situations with the Israeli

Palestinian conflict. OK, I'm down for helping the Ukrainians and fighting off Russia. What about poor and desolate citizens here? How the hell do you print money for foreign countries, but you don't print that money to help eradicate folks that are starving right here in the streets of America who were born

and raised here? Wait a minute, that's not Vladimir Putin. That's Stephen A Smith who's getting red pilled live and he's saying the exact same things with the exception about the funding Ukraine piece. He's like, don't we have some problems here in this country? We got Mayor Adams like handing out the gift cards for 1000 bucks a month and what are we doing?

We got dudes crapping on the street corner, which that's also, I don't know if you saw that yesterday, but we got dudes that are crapping in in trash cans in New York City. We can't even take care of that problem. Is that interesting when a Stephen A Smith is saying the same thing that Vladimir Putin is like, why don't you figure out your own problems? It is, and he's doing the he's got the Tulsi Gabbard red Pilling thing going on.

Where pseudo. Red Pill. Hard part of the way there like there's a comma where there should be a period. That's what I always say about Tulsi Gabbard. Like she's like you know, why are we involved overseas and those foreign engagements and everybody on the right goes yeah, I'm like comma and spend that money on abortions here in the United States. Like we don't think about that second part that that she brings up and that Stephen A wants to print money to feed the

homeless. But I think it's a valid concern if you're it's a sunk cost analysis like if you're going to do it and I don't. So you can pick and chew. I don't. Know why you have to? It should at least go towards your people, which is the the America first lefty you know. So I guess like Keynesian argument. Keynesian argument? What's the Keynesian argument, Steve? Like the, not everybody wants to just print. A whole bunch of money and drop it out of the helicopter.

The quantitative easing where you just like just sprinkle it across the country. I mean, look, if we give everybody $1,000,000, we'll all be millionaires like that. That's, that's what we do. I mean, it's basically what the actually the CARES Act, right? Speaking, Speaking of, they actually did that in Russia where everybody had what, millions and millions of rupals and they used to take them down in the bread lines. And we see pictures of people

with wheelbarrows full of cash. Every time that your, your currency gets hyperinflated and worth nothing, then you can all be millionaires. You can't buy anything with the millions, but you can be a millionaire. This, this is good decorating. You should get it like one of those Zimbabwe zillion dollar bills, whatever they were for your background there. I think that would be an excellent addition to the Fox molder. Just put that up on the wall somewhere. Sure. I don't.

I don't hate that. I don't hate that at all. That's not a terrible plan. All right, so I got I just loaded clips up and some of them are in the mixed bag. I don't actually know what it was only because we got derailed by the by the Internet issue today where I normally would have had my little notes. So my notes are are imperfect. I've actually got this one. I I know what this is. This is going to be a little clip that I think you're going

to find quite interesting. It's subtitles only so the the audience will hear the Russian. We won't. But this is a Sputnik, which is Russian propaganda, walking around asking people in Russia about what they think about Tucker Carlson coming to the United States. And I found that to be quite interesting.

And what I also found is that it seems like they're pretty articulate, like maybe they just had to pick and choose and find some intelligent Russians. But you could find you'd have a hard time finding more of that on American streets these days. When you ask questions, you get a lot more dumb answers, which Mark not improved yesterday in front of the Supreme Court in Washington, DC, literally just asking people questions.

We got all kinds of dumb responses, including the fact that apparently the the president, the former president Donald Trump, has already been convicted of insurrection in a civil court. It's not a criminal matter, but he's already been convicted. But we don't care about the presumption of innocence. We care about democracy. But we want to remove this guy from the ballot, lest anybody vote for him because that's democracy.

And Donald Trump being removed from the ballot is the same as not being able to elect a 32 year old because that's what's in the Constitution. You know, pick and choose your facts live in this sort of like echo chamber. Anyway, these people are kind of interesting. I think these Russians, they have some interesting takes, including that Tucker might not be welcome home. I don't think that's true, by the way, but it's what they were saying in the media, which that means they're.

Consuming our stuff. All right, let's see what they have. I. And like I said, the audience could hear the Russian speaking. In the background, we couldn't just cuz I didn't want to turn it on for us, I'd have to turn on and off our soundboard. That being said, pretty profound statements. I think those resonate with a lot of people, the Tucker Carlson types that are looking at and going like, yeah, he's got a lot to say, but why would it be such a scary thing?

Why do we have the cry bully situation that we talked about yesterday? Why are they cry bullying to keep him from going out there and just chatting with a guy like nobody's any worse off because he went and talked to Putin. Nobody, literally nobody in this country. How about just a simple acknowledgement of the man on the street? Interview with regular Russian citizens and they know who Tucker Carlson is. Who's an American? Media person, it says a lot about that.

That propaganda war that he was talking about doesn't. It it sure does. And they or the, the, the feedback they're getting to these questions. It's not like the man of the street interviews here where we ask people like very simple civics questions and they can't name anything, but they know all the Kardashian sisters. And those might be cherry pick to a certain extent, but there's such a volume of those that I think that it's a it's a trend.

Like I said, my my sister doesn't know what what decades major American involved conflicts happened. I imagine that she can label anybody who votes for lower tax as a Nazi. Yeah, that's what Nazis do, right? Actually, that was another really interesting piece from this and it was later on. One of the interesting pieces from this this Carl, this Tucker Carlson piece is that he's he's talking about and, and and Putin brings up de nazification of Ukraine.

I didn't buy his argument in any way, shape or form, but it was an interesting talking point that he continues to to push out. Apparently, de nazification means that you have to stop the national heroes who were aligned with the Nazis that took place, you know, like in Ukraine. And that's weird. I don't, we keep hearing about Nazis in Ukraine. I'm curious if your wife has any sort of reflection on that that you guys talked about. Because I don't know what to make of it.

I'm, I'm no Ukrainian expert and I don't want to be. I don't want to be because I don't care because I actually

care about America first. But he keep he brought it up and it was like a significant portion of what he was getting into with Tucker. There's a historical basis for the Ukrainians being involved with the with the Nazis when it came to World War 2. And even my conversation with my wife, she's reflected back to me that there's a quite a bit of anti-Semitism that is very prevalent within at least her sphere. When she lived in Ukraine and she lived there for the 1st 14 years of her life.

And then she went back and she's gone back for extensive periods of time as a little bit older. But she was clear to me, like it was almost like when we went shopping for. For jewelry for her, it was like, yeah, when we were in Ukraine, like you, you can't deal with with jewelry because that's the Jews. I mean, like it was that that obvious and prevalent to her. And I think that that's that's a cultural thing too. Interesting. Strange also for a guy like Zelinsky who were wearing his

shirt, but is he not Jewish? And that was something was also brought up. He's like, what the hell is this guy doing? It doesn't make any sense. Yeah, I mean, he's like the George Soros Jewish guy, right? Like his, he's like the plate. He's right. Yeah. He plays the. Piano. He's his penis. So doing Shabbos. That's right. OK, we're reaching into the grab bag here. I'm fairly confident that this is our last little clip from the

interview. I'm pretty sure that's what I've got right here, so let's grab a little taste of this. What about Taylor Swift? She sucks. Who do you think will win the 2024 election in the United States? Everyone knows President Donald Trump will be the next president of the United States, and as soon as he takes back the White House, he's probably going to whoop some ass. What do you think about Bud Light? Gay piss. Gay piss. Who killed Jeffrey Epstein? That's easy. Hillary did it.

We don't call her Hillary Clinton for no reason. What do you think about all that? That was a pretty hard hitting piece at the end. And why does he think Bud Light is gay piss? Well, I mean, aren't we supposed to be back to liking Bud Light now? According to to Dear Leader, right? That's, that's what's come to trans. I don't, I don't take any boot

off the throat there. Yeah, it'll take marching orders from anybody, even our our chat was like, Kyle, you need to educate yourself about the Azov Battalion. And so I was like, no, I don't, I don't care. It's not like we we've got so many problems with this in our own house. And and I had the CIA, that was I. Think I share it with you.

There was the, a small exchange that I had online with the person and he was like, Steve, you know, I'm a, I'm a national security expert and we have to support Ukraine and we have to support Israel. And I just said like, no, he's like, well, we have to project strength. And I was like 30-4 trillion debt, dude, that's not strong

and it doesn't feed my kids. Listen, when when Vladimir Putin is making the right arguments, not that that Ukraine is right or wrong or that what he did is right or wrong, but it's like, hey, man, your house is so shaky. You've got dudes crapping in the hold on. I got this guy. Hold on, let's do this. I'm pretty sure this look at this piece of shit. This is on 5th Ave. and 43rd St. bro, he just climbed up on that fucking on the on the garbage can. Pull his pants out. He's taking a shit.

There's a dude in our, our, our shining city, the like the the most American example of our city, right? New York City New Yorkers will tell you they can't stop telling you it's the most important place in the world to them at least. And at least it does represent America in a big way. We got dudes who are homeless that are getting crapping in a can that is meant for like your

Starbucks cup. And then you have people that are not from America, that snuck into our country, that got transported up there, that are getting $1000 a month from the mayor, who's a smart manager. I'm sorry. I buy the argument that Vladimir Putin put out there. Not that I think he's a good guy, which I don't. Not that I think that what he said was all the truth, because I don't. And not that I think that the Ukraine is or isn't a great place to spend money, just not

right now. I think Stephen A Smith has got it. It's like, what the hell are we doing? We've lost our shit. This is a little bit off the board here, but I think I can connect it back. Do you remember when there was a big blow up because they they killed that lion, Cecil the lion? Cecil the Lion. Yeah, it was. A yes, Cecil the lion and side note, I I wanted a swat patch that had Harambe riding Cecil the lion on wings. It was like take take a shot for Harambe because he took two for you.

So when there was all the blow up about Cecil the lion being killed, I just remember looking up like US aid and how many kids are dying in sub-Saharan Africa and then how many people were being killed in lion attacks. And people just summon this outrage over something. And it's so small. And, and all I'm thinking about is like all you're concerned about the humanitarian crises around the world. Like why can't you summon it for for sub-Saharan Africa?

Is it because they don't look like you? Are you a racist? No. I mean, it's just you're kind of picking and choosing what you want to care about. And I think you have some misplaced priorities. I care about my wife and my kids, and I'm not going to apologize for that. And if that means that I don't have to have the bandwidth for what's going on in some territorial conflict in in Eastern Europe and between the most corrupt country.

That's a laundering operation for United States politicians and a country of 150 million people that just because there are movies that they're bad. The bad guys that I'm supposed to think of, they're the big baddie and the threat to everything when China could just call all of our debt tomorrow and you and I would have problems getting water. I, I or they can shut down our. Infrastructure since they've been looking into it for as long as they have.

I just found some there it is. There's always some of my wife's hair. She's doing that post post pregnancy thing. There's always some of my wife's hair hanging on me. That is something that all men can relate to when you just go in through your laundry and since we share laundry equipment, you're always like, really? But when it's in my hair, it's my favorite. OK, here, here is my my thought and I'm going to actually turn this into a read for my sponsor

real quick. And then I'm going to tell you a connection. You're going to be not surprised that I can make this loop in. So first of all, folks, if you're not following our friends over at Catholic Vote, you can follow them online at Catholic Vote at Catholic Vote on both true social and they are on Twitter and they are or X and then they're also on Instagram. But you guys can go to

catholicvote.org. You can get set up for the loop, which is an outstanding e-mail, which I read this morning and cover some of this stuff and we'll cover more of it next time. You guys can always support the catholicvote.org with a giving option up on the top right hand side, which you see on the screen.

They have endorsed Donald Trump. They love America, they're in the fight for faith, family and freedom, and they are a political advocacy group That is not that you don't have to be Catholic to agree with what they do. They you probably already agree with almost everything they're

about. OK, let me let me tell you that the connection here, the national chaplain for Catholic vote is a guy named Father de Selis and Father de Selis actually with no connection to me whatsoever, even though I'm affiliated now with a Catholic vote. Folks, he was chosen in their national survey of priests to be their chaplain when they reviewed all the people and what

he was about. Now, he is also the priest that was at the St. Raymond of Panafort Church in Springfield, VA, where my wife and I attended Mass. You want to talk about a strange small little circle in the world? And he gave one of the most intelligent and articulate arguments for what you just said right there. He said as Christians and as Catholic specifically, you have to be able to look and have compassion for the people in the world.

But you don't have an unlimited amount of compassion, and you're not asked to have that. That's not a Christian position that you must give everything until you have nothing and because you can't actually affect anything. And and it goes back to that old thing they talk about in therapy. It's like, well, if you want to help somebody else, if you haven't helped yourself first, how are you even going to be able to do that?

If you can't feed yourself, you're just going to die giving it to someone and you no longer are beneficial. You. You actually. Have to put the mask on on the airplane to yourself before you help your kid next. Correct. And it looks like a circle of bull's eyes was his argument. And he said essentially, like inside of your your bullseye, the inner bullseye is you and your family and you can take care of them. And then it expands out to who your neighbors and who is your neighbor.

It's the people that you interact with every day that you have the ability to actually make a direct impact on. And then it goes out into your broader community. And those may be not exactly your direct neighbors, but they're people that you have a, an influence through the next bullseye. And it goes on and on.

And at some point you're going to run out of resources and it's probably going to happen far before you get to sub-Saharan Africa. It doesn't mean that some people aren't called to go and help people in Africa. Maybe that's where they're, that's where they go and find their neighbor. But it doesn't mean that you and I worrying about our families and our block and our street and our community and our little towns are not totally in the

right in doing this. And, and this is the argument I make against the leftist compassionate. They're so willing to give everybody something like you talk about like spreading the money train, that Keynesian economics, that they're willing to basically bankrupt all of us and make 0 impact. If you spread it so thin and then you give it across everybody that everybody got a little bit of nothing, which is the worst possibility I think. As opposed to let's focus our efforts.

Even Stephen A Smith knows this. We probably don't agree on very many things, but we know we shouldn't have dudes in New York shitting on trash cans and we shouldn't have veterans that are homeless on the streets in New York when we are importing new charity cases and we can't even afford the ones that we already had. Pretty simple. Yes, I mean, all you wind up doing when you spread everything out is making everybody equal, equally poor.

That's the nature of what socialism and Marxism and Keynesian economics essentially winds up with everyone. What did What did communists use to light their house before the candle? What? What did? Yeah. What did the Communists use to light their houses before candles? Electricity. That's your dad joke of the day right there, folks. Nailed it right there. All right, let's get rowdy. Let's get into the the next little round here. Let's talk Joe Biden and the special counsel report.

I've got him in kind of a particular order this I pulled almost all these little snapshots from the executive summary and little bit from CNN. So the thing you're seeing up in the top, it says we have considered this is the top top line, what they call the bottom line up front. We have considered that at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury as he did during our interview of him as a sympathetic, well meaning elderly man with a poor memory.

I want you to just consider and reflect, Steve Friend, on any time that you've had prosecution decisions based on that. It said there that their investigation of evidence against Biden that he willfully retained and disclosed, not just retained but disclosed classified materials after his vice presidency when he was a private citizen. And they include materials that were marked classified documents in military and foreign policy about Afghanistan, which was

ongoing at that time. Notebooks containing his handwritten entries on national security and foreign policy implicated sensitive sources and methods. And FBI agents recovered these materials from his garages, his offices and his basement den in Wilmington, DE. You know, but he's an old man. Are you good with that? Is that does that work for you? Well, this is back to what I said about Tucker Carlson. We have to just accept it's gravity, the double standard. It just is.

So how are we going to address that? But I think it's kind of laughable how you say that he's OK to run the free world, to have the most powerful and important position in the entire Earth, but he can't, he's not competent to stand trial, even though we know what he did knowingly violated the law. I think we have a constitutional crisis, at least a criminal justice crisis, if if that's allowed to continue. Here's another one. It's possible that Mister Biden encountered classified

documents. This one is is a is a good one, classified Afghan documents at his Virginia home in February of 2017. And then he told his his ghostwriter, this guy who's Swanser, and then said and soon after forgot about them and didn't willfully retain them. While such a swift and permanent bout of forgiveness may seem implausible, several pieces of evidence provide support for that. And it looks something like this. There they are.

They found documents from the fall of 2009, classification markings up to top secret and sensitive compartmented information. They're found in a box in the Delaware garage along with other materials of great personal significance that he appeared to have used and access frequently. Which means you probably would have to say that he knew that they were there since he quote UN quote, used and accessed them

frequently. They marked classified documents along with handwritten drafts in a memo from 2009 Thanksgiving that he had sent to Barack Obama trying to persuade him. There's a there's this strong push. Rather, there's a strong push in these this finding that he was old, he doesn't know any better. He was so familiar with classified documents that it was just normal for him not to recognize that they were not supposed to be there.

But he also, they also make the counter argument that he needed to retain them because he was really worried how history would view his his take on Afghanistan and that he was never in favor of going into Afghanistan or maintaining that that ongoing peace that, you know, that Barack Obama was able to escalate it. So he thought he really needed to keep these documents in order to protect his legacy because he thought he was super important. That's literally described in

there. I'm paraphrasing. Well, they're all these guys are super worried about what their legacy is, which is just hubris. But I think that we're we're seeing at the real politique of what's going on here. I think that they came to to Joe Biden and said, hey, we're we want you to step aside and make for, I don't know, Pete Buttigieg to run for president. And if you're not willing to do that, then we'll ratchet it up a little bit and we'll charge Hunter. And he said no, no one.

Of course, Steve just went yellow on that, so we'll bring him on 2 seconds here. Here's another little piece of it. Exactly what I'm telling you. Some evidence suggests that Mister Biden knew he could not keep classified handwritten documents in his office.

Mr. Biden, who had decades of experience with classified information, was deeply familiar with the procedures taken to safeguard these classified piece of information, and he needed those measures to prevent harm from national security. Asked about reports that former President Trump also kept classified documents in his home, he said how could anyone be so irresponsible? Voiced concerns, what data was in there that might compromise sources and methods.

And then as the vice president, he kept notebooks in his house at the White House safe. I'm sorry. He kept him in the White House safe in contrast to his decision after leaving office where he kept them in unlocked drawers. So literally a guy who's complaining about whether or not this was a, a safe situation, talking about Donald Trump saying, oh, God, could we even, could we even allow it? And then sure enough, what does he do?

He does exactly the same thing. We got a couple more of these things while Steve jumps back on the line. Several defenses. This is they're they're actually troubleshooting this. This reminds me of James Comedy's any given, you know, no reasonable prosecutor speech, but here it is. Several defenses are likely to create doubt for such charges. They're actually creating the defenses so they can make sure that Joe Biden doesn't have to pay for this in in criminal proceedings.

He could have he could have found the classified documents at his home in 2017 and then forgotten them soon after. This would convince reasonable jurors that he didn't willfully retain them. He told his ghost rider that he had found all kinds of stuff that was classified downstairs.

His tone was matter of fact. For a person that viewed classified documents nearly every day for eight years as vice president, including regularly in his home, finding classified documents at home less than a month after leaving office could have been unremarkable and an unforgettable or a a forgettable event. Rather, I assume that's what Donald Trump should be claiming. They, they basically laid out what they believe is an appropriate way to to describe this stuff.

They said, look, he saw it every day and so why wouldn't he see it? Isn't that troubling? It makes it makes no sense whatsoever that you would continue to have this argument being made, but they made it multiple times and then here's a little bit more of it. They said, nevertheless, we believe that the evidence is

sufficient. We don't believe there's sufficient evidence that a jury would find a reasonable beyond a reasonable doubt for some of the reasons that we just said both when he served as vice president or when the Afghan documents were found in his possession in 20/22, he had their possession in his Delaware home. It wasn't the basis for prosecution because he had the authority to keep classified

documents at his home. And then afterwards he was a private citizen and he told the Ghost Rider, They just stumble all over themselves making excuses for Joe Biden, which is actually pretty incredible. This the the idea that they're just going to in real time over and over again say it. And then they have to make the argument that he's also still mentally competent to be able to maintain his office as president. We got Steve back.

Steve. They basically did the any reasonable prosecutor speech that Jim Comedy did. They said, look, here's all the crimes. Here's the fact that we know that he did them and we're going to add this willful piece to it, whether or not, but it's pretty obvious it was willful because he said it was. They explained why and then they go. But also he's old. He's a nice old guy.

He's old. And then we'll send them out there for a press conference past his bedtime, unprepared and unscripted, just to make our point that he's it's, it's time. It's time, Joe, that you give up the, the ring of power here. And I was, I was thinking and you played, I think earlier this week, a clip from from Biden and how his decline has even happened within the last couple of years. And you do the same thing with your kids that I do with mine.

And I was thinking about my older kid now who's in, he's nine years old, but when he was like 3, he's very talkative and he's very excited to. And I used to say nobody can cram a 30 second story into 5 minutes like my 3 year old. And but his cue, my daughter's by the way, and, and while they're talking, they're very excited and his cue always to keep the conversation going was and guess what, and guess what, and guess what? And then I would have fun.

I would say, guess what, back to him and he would just what? Yeah, you're, but you derail him. Joe Joe Biden does that while he talks. He, he keeps saying, guess what? Guess what? And I'm like, well, he's, he's about the three-year old that that I raised. And that's that's where he's at right now. Checks which? Is. But you know, to his credit, when Peter Doocy asked him a question, hey, you know, is how bad is your memory? You know, should you?

That was funny. So he asked him a question and Joe Biden just goes bad enough that I that I called on you again, which is objectively clever and funny. And he's sly and it's, it's genuine and he's a jerk. I mean, I don't feel you normally feel bad for people when they're in this mental decline. And he's clearly in the throes of senility of now, all right, like Alzheimer's or something at this point. But he's been a jerk for like 50 years, his entire life in

public. I don't feel bad for him at all. And I'm, I'm actually taking quite a bit of pleasure in him because his legacy means so much to him that this is going to be the end of his legacy. I think that that's quite fitting. It suits him. I agree with you. Let's see a couple more. I grabbed a couple more of these little clips and some of these

should no longer have. I've actually, like I said, I'm a little bit disappointed because I didn't have all the prep time that I normally have since we had our Internet outage folks. For like 20 minutes I was scrambling trying to figure out if we were even going to have a show. So let's see what this one is. I know these all made sense when I put them together, so give me one second. What? About Taylor Swift. Oh, what about Taylor Swift? We already played her, all right.

What about this? One So twice you've described US presidents making decisions and then being undercut by their agency heads. So it sounds like you're describing a system that's not run by the people who are elected in your telling. That's right. That's right. Yeah. So I put that in there specifically, and I'm remembering why we put this in there. He described several of these undercuttings. We're also seeing these undercuttings happen with our

special counsel. It's like, shouldn't our special counsel just do the job? Do we think that Joe Biden is actually out there running this operation by himself and he's trying to get it done? I think you're right. I think people came and approached him and gave a like at least an opportunity to get his kid out of this.

But moreover, Vladimir Putin is literally talking about the operations of the so-called deep state, the administrative state that exists and spans multiple presidents and has its own agendas. And they are not what the people who elect people in this country are expecting to happen. That that that's why it doesn't matter. It's a lot of this, a lot of the stuff is going on whether or not we agree to it or not because it's not our choice.

And it's terrifying to think that the guy who basically spent most of his life working against this country is able to see that, and probably has probably more information about it since they've compromised things too. Well, it it's a lot like the Martin Niemoller poem, but you can evolve it and say like, first they came for the Soviets and then they came for the Russians and, and now they're just coming for the American

citizens. They're using the same mechanisms that have just turned them inwards. They're doing the intelligence collection and the actual criminal prosecution of people who are just, they're perceived enemies of the administrative state. It's all gross and sad. I've got a an ad read that's going to throw us back. It's our OG sponsor. I want to say thanks to our friends over at Patriot Cooler. Let me do that real quick, folks.

And they have been with us literally since we started kicking off in February. I've got a little thing that's going to be fun for Steve to see. We actually have a one of our first Friendly Fridays going all the way back then. And even then we had Patriot Coolers as a sponsor. And I'm going to throw this up on the screen for you all. This is Kyle and Steve Searsa, February of last, you hear? What do you think, Steve? You look ghostly. You got some better lighting.

We got this one which was just a little bit later. I'm just showing you guys a little progression of the Friendly Friday as it's going on. And here's the last one here. Kaboom. This was just after you were testifying in front of friends in Congress who have done absolutely Jack and what is what is Dan say Jack left town. That's that's where we started. Here's where we are today. We're living the dream.

At least there's that. And thanks to our sponsors who who have been able to kind of make this continue onward. We kind of come a long ways in the last year, my friend. We've upgraded, man. We've we definitely upgraded. And I know I've become a little bit snobby and because I'll now go on programs and I'm like, Hey, my, my visuals look better than yours and you're hosting the show.

How dare you? But that's been solely because you have penetrated my, my, my thinking on that because I used to just think like, well, I can talk through it. Doesn't matter how it looks. No, it makes a difference. People take you seriously when the camera is clear. I'm a little bit sad because I lost my ability to do the thumbs up bubble, but I think that the the actual camera does does

justice. I don't want the thumbs up, but by the way, you still can use it if you want to know it's still out there. And let's see, I got one last little clip here and I think this one is coming from MSNBC, if my memory is going to serve me correct. We're we're literally just like reaching into the bag and see what comes out with it, what's holding. On to my favorite. But I did edit something together about what the priorities look like on the

political left. And like I said, it's it's so interesting to hear. It's so interesting to hear a foreign president kind of line up on it. And that's kind of in the theme that I keep. I keep pushing back what? How hard is it to just be America first, not the capital, a capital F like just care about your country first, be an actual nationalist.

And why is that a bad word? I think this if this is the right clip, which we'll find out in about one second here, that we'll actually get a pretty good taste of why, as you know. Initially, the president of Mexico, Sisi, did not want to open up. That was Joe Biden, that wasn't the clip I was looking for. And I think the Joe Biden clip was silent. So many of you guys didn't even hear it anyway. Worst case scenario is Joe Biden talking about something that was outside of his mental grasp.

The exact opposite of Putin, who's able to name world leaders and times and things like that. And go back to the the early 8 hundreds and Joe Biden can't tell you who the president of Egypt is. He thinks it's the president of Mexico. It's just like classic Joe Biden blunder that's going on at this point. I think we've run out the clock on these, on this poor old man who is now not going to be prosecuted.

And luckily, or an unluckily, what we found out is that they've given Republicans just like an unlimited amount of ammunition that he can't even be prosecuted because he's too old and feeble and dumb. You know what, you do reflect back on your America First sentiment here. I am unable to summon the umbrage and the outrage.

And I think that a lot of the Con Inc media is going to be talking about this today and into the weekend about the double standard because look, I accept the gravity theory that this is just is what it is. That's the way the battlefield conditions are. It's never going to happen. It was never going to happen the same as Alejandro Mayorkas was never going to be impeached. I just accepted it.

And there's a lot of really important things that these people theoretically are supposed to be handling the, the, the national security factor, the fact we have this open and porous border, the debt and everything across the board. I know that it's really important. But my entire perspective, I think this is worth sharing was changed last week. And I went to a candidate forum for my county Board of Commissioners, The chairman that it's a primary right now going on.

There were three guys there, the current chairman, who's a, who's a friend of mine, my mayor for my town that I live in is running and then there's a private businessman who's also running. Three guys and I sat there for an hour as they answered questions and they were talking about things like the fact that there's water toxicity issues in my county. It's a county of 600,000 people. And I just thought, what's more important than that?

Like I, I mean, we can worry about the debt and we can worry about immigration issues. And I know they're sexy. We have the Super Bowl coming up Sunday. That's the Super Bowl, right? Like we need to be worried about two a day stuff like very basic things like there is nothing more important than my ability to give my kids a glass of pure water. And I need to engage on this. And I have just checked out of the federal side of of the

politics. I am solely focusing on the local and it's like the bullseye that you were talking about. The local is the most important and that that example right there I don't think paints a clear picture. It's kind of why I don't really care what's happening in Ukraine. And I kind of like I have, I have an awareness, obviously I've been paying attention enough to see that people show videos of what's going on with, you know, Nazis and all this other kind of stuff.

But I don't know if they're true or not because I'm not there and I'm not going to be there and I don't trust the sources. This is what we do. This is how I operate. I'm very skeptical. If someone's trying to feed me one line, I don't believe that. And you try to feed me another line. I don't believe that.

If you try to force feed me something that I'm getting a snipshot and I'm looking through like a straw at it and I can't see the broader context and I have no way to confirm what you're saying, then I'm just going to ignore you. And it's the same thing about the border. It's like we're getting little snippets. Are we down at the border? No. Am I closer than you? Yes. I know what's going on in Texas to a certain point. I've got friends in McAllen, I've got friends in Eagle Pass.

I've got friends in these areas. I've got friends who are Border Patrol that were up in Las Cruces. I used to have a pretty good visibility to it because I was 40 miles away from the physical border. So I knew what was happening and who was coming across and my friends were working those, those cases.

But like you say, the minute you get further away from that, if you live in, I don't know, Oklahoma City or Chicago or New York or Michigan or, you know, Oregon, your visibility to what's going on is basically limited to whoever's going to send or correspond spawn it down to that space. And then it's going to be whatever short 2 minute or three minute Fox News it that they want to curate.

One of the things we did yesterday, which I think if you go back and watch, you don't have to watch all the folks, but if you go watch the coverage that that Mark Notton and I did outside the Supreme Court, we're going to do this more and more. We didn't just show the press conference happening where 5 secretaries of state came in and spoke on behalf of Donald Trump in the Colorado lawsuit. That's in the Supreme Court.

And we didn't just cover down on what the the defense or the plaintiffs who are bringing the case against Donald Trump said, who are obviously liars. Like you could just tell like they were saying things that were dishonest. The woman, by the way, Steve, you can appreciate this talk about people who don't know anything. She's a woman with Gray hair. So I don't know how old she was, but she was over 50. She was probably over 60.

She's a former Republican, according to her, that voted, you know, that voted to and was suing to get Donald Trump taken off the ballot because that was part of her job as a Republican. Believe whatever you want in in Colorado. And she said, you know, we've had a problem with people who are insurrectionists since the, you know, the late 1860s when the American Civil War happened in the late 1860s.

Now apparently 1861 to 1865. Maybe she never read the book across 5 April's. But I'll never forget that it started like April 12th of 60 of of 61 and went to 65 someday in April. There are 5 April's involved. And it was in the early 60s by my estimation, early to mid. I don't know how she came up with that being old.

But like, these are the people that are out there arguing in front of the Supreme Court. She doesn't know when the Civil War was the United States. She's off by half a decade, which is better than many. It's still pretty atrocious. They don't know anything, you know, and they're just pushing us. I think Joe Biden is the only one that could actually say he had first hand experience what was going on in 1860s. Nice reference though. Across 5 April's. I remember reading that that was

that was a good book. I actually know that I read it twice because I was like almost done with it and I got sick and I had these feverish dreams and the for some reason the book got into my dreams and I didn't know what I'd actually read and what I actually dreamed. So I had to go back to the beginning and reread it. And then you realize that's where the red Fern grows. So on top of all of those things, you know, we what we did is we showed the press

conference that was happening. It was a stand up press conference, but we also showed the media circus, the EU shaped media circus, this horseshoe in front of all these clowns. And there's five people talking. There's 50 people in the media. There are 18 people protesting. There are 100 people that are videotaping it. And and so that's, that's what we want to try to do for folks with this, this Mark Naughton

kind of piece that we have. And if you're following Mark Naughton, you can do it on Twitter and you can do it on on True social. Now it's at Mark Naughty 9, and he's going to be doing some stuff with us. We're going to show you the media coverage, which is why I don't trust 2 minutes in Ukraine or 50 seconds down at the border at even people that I tend to like. And they seem to be doing things that are pretty genuine. I just don't have any way to confirm it, and neither do you.

The view that not in game of the media that he was able to, the actual physical perspective, I think was so illuminating because we're looking through like a Capri Sun straw normally that those media people give and he just gave the actual physical visibility of what they're doing. Yeah, they're standing on boxes to be pretend to be taller, to get better shots and angles. And it's all about some of those people were after we left because everything was over.

They were still set up. And Mark and I were talking on the phone when he went to go get something like a sandwich. And I go, hey, man, like what's going on? Still he goes, oh, the media is still set up there. He went and got a sandwich. He was there for like an hour and he got out and we were talked Afterwards. We're doing a debrief. And as he walks by, he goes, they're still set up. He goes, what are these poor

bastards doing? And I said, they're standing there so that in three hours when the Evening News comes on, they can have a dark Supreme Court behind them and they can go, Bob, we're standing here at the Supreme Court where earlier today this thing happened. And we've been standing here for six hours maintaining our spot and keeping the shot ready so that we can do a 2 minute bullshit hit in front of it and tell you that we're at the Supreme Court.

Because that gives us the only credibility we have that we're physically at the building because the things we say are lies. And that's what they do. That's the slant, that's the game. And as long as you can see that, I mean, I'm, I'm pretty excited about the long form version of Tucker's interview. I would love to see an uncut version of it because I want to know how the translation thing happened. How did Tucker know what was going on? That's the stuff that I look at. Who's slanting.

Even though I think Tucker probably told us what was true and probably gave us a real good translation, I don't even know if the translation of what Putin said was correct probably was. No, there's enough. People put my wife on that. Maybe, maybe she could actually diagnose that because she I always put her on that with all the movies and stuff. I'm like, hey, are they good? She's like, no, they're, they're just reading it and they have an American accent.

Right. My wife does this, by the way, with she does that with Italian. So anyway, all right, we're going to wrap this up. Tell folks what you got going on. You've got something new. If you want to announce it now or next week, that's fine with me too. Whatever you're into. And then we're going to send people off into their weekend. Well, join us tomorrow, Saturday, American Radicals

podcast. Garrett and I are going to be talking about, well, it's Super Bowl weekend, so we're going to be talking about the the actual Redskins logo that was lost and then this, this story, the history that are actually behind that, which I think will be a productive conversation. And we announced yesterday we're starting the book study. He and I agreed Animal Farm is going to be the first read.

We're going back to basics, doing the again, back of the Super Bowl. Vince Lombardi, this is a football. That's what he said on day one. So we're going to talk about that. And the book study starts next Saturday. And we encourage everybody to join the American Radicals Podcast, rumble.com/M RAD Pod Noontime Eastern every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. So rumble.com/M AM rad RAD pod POD and you can also find that same handle on truth and Twitter. T friend, you're my buddy.

Thanks for joining me. Hope you guys have a good weekend on a move right into a five star review. Here we go folks. The show's for you. We love that you guys are watching it. And somebody finally did a review on the Jumanji episode, which by the way, was one of my proudest little line UPS connecting 90s culture to what's happening today makes me so proud, so safe. Again, a review saying courage to play the game to the end. Five stars, brilliant Jumanji analogy. Thank you so much.

I'm just telling you like that. That warms my heart. Always enjoy your creative view. It takes a great deal of research. Interesting.
