Take a look behind the curtain with a real whistleblower, 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 Serif. Well, hello my friends. Welcome to the Kyle Serif and Show. Today is Tuesday. It is April the 30th.
We are ending the month, and we're going to do so talking about the American Dream, what it is, what it isn't, what it meant, what it might not be, which is a little bit of nostalgia. And so I'm gonna open with a little bit of nostalgia, something from my high school years, kind of the formation of the way that I saw it growing into adulthood and the way the American Dream kind of touched me, or the way that my generation saw it as we came of age. This is pre 911.
We're going to say thanks to our sponsors before we do that, and I will touch on the failed raid that happened in Charlotte. I want to talk about law enforcement. I think there is a element of that as well. I don't know if it's nostalgia or laziness or the incompatibility with modern thinking. There are better ways to do a lot of things and unfortunately several men lost their lives because we're not doing it
better in this country. There are things that we should be updating, so we'll talk about all that. Look forward to getting into it quite soon. Before we do, let's say a thanks to our friends over at Catholic Vote. If you guys are not following what's going on with Catholic Vote, you are missing out on some very good information. You can go to catholicvote.org if you want to get the loop. That's how you get the e-mail. There's an an excellent little piece on homeschooling today.
You're going to have to Scroll down towards the bottom of it, but I I encourage you to check that out. And you can also follow Catholic Vote now on Rumble and on YouTube if it wherever you guys are watching videos, they have their own channel and we're doing a small kind of short segment. It's like a 10 minute concentrated, a little bit more produced, definitely not live. That's called between the lines and I recommend you guys check
that out. You can follow them on social media at Catholic Vote, always all the places at Catholic Vote or Catholic voterumble.com/catholic Vote etcetera. Check them out. They do keep the lights on here in the Seraphin household. We're grateful for their support regardless of what's going on because it's about values and it's about virtue.
It's about doing the right thing, which is what we are called to do. I think as Christians in the world and they've been able to do that with us, we're really appreciative. If you guys are not watching us on rumble, there is a link in the show description, especially if you're on YouTube. Check us out over at rumble.com/kyle Serif. And that's where you can hit our like button over there. That's where you can subscribe to the channel should you, Joe choose.
They call it subscribing if you want to be a financial contributor. It's a lot like locals. It's 5 bucks a month and it cost you. I'm sorry, they don't take any cut of it, which is unusual. Most of the video platforms will take a little cut. Rumble does not for our subscribership. So that's the best way to support us. It's like 22 cents, $0.23 a show depending on the month. rumble.com/kyle Serafin for the live shows. And we do start at 0930 Eastern Time, as many of you in the chat
are quite aware. Let's get going right now. I I appreciate all you guys join. I want to start off with a video clip. I don't do this very often. Let's get demonetized on YouTube right away. We're taking a few seconds from something that I think was formative for a lot of men in my age bracket. I'm 42 years old. I graduated high school in the year 2000. It was supposed to be a big deal. I remember my wife and I had the same experience when we were
kids. They talked about the smoke free class of 2000. She was like a smoker at a really young age. So that's kind of funny. But everybody talked about doing that. And yeah, we had this look on life that was not very positive. And then I think it actually got worse, although we got more pro America, the American dream, the support for America was reinvigorated by what happened on 9/11. An external foe almost always brings you closer in your house.
Think about any kind of fight you've ever had with a sibling, and then somebody tries to fight with your sibling and you're like, no, no, no, that's my little brother. I can beat up my little brother, but you can't beat up my little brother. I'm coming for you. I think that's the attitude This was, This was the mindset. This, this movie was released in 1999.
The book was before that. And I think it was formative for a lot of men who are in their late 30s and early 40s and maybe even a little bit older who saw it. They had this exact same sentiment that we are being sold a bill of goods by this country and it's now coming back home to roost with the generation that are our children. And we're seeing them acting out all across the country. All right, no more prep. Check out this little movie clip. See if you agree.
Man, I've seen Fight Club, the strongest and smartest man who've ever lived. I see all this potential and I see a squander, God damn it, An entire generation. Pumping gas, waiting tables, slaves with white collars. Advertising has it's chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose, no place. We have no Great War, no Great Depression. Our Great War is a spiritual war. Our Great Depression is our
lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires and movie gods and rock stars. But we won't. We're slowly learning that fact. We're very, very pissed off. A bunch of men standing in a basement pissed off at the world, taking out their frustrations through physical aggression, throwing punches at each other.
It's a pretty masculine way to solve problems, but it also kind of indicates that frustration with the white collar office work that go to your job working jobs we don't we don't want right? Or that we don't like trying to buy shit that we don't need. The whole point of it was it was anti commercialism. It was the the sort of anti American dream a a reversal back to minimalism. What are the essential requirements?
They're talking about credit. Talking about how banks are essentially making life unlivable for the modern man. And and all of that against the backdrop of probably some of the most technologically advanced time, the the most capable that human species had ever been, with all of the freedoms right? We didn't quite have the Internet bothering us, but we did have some connectivity. So it wasn't in our face. But we had cell phones. We had the ability to move
around and communicate. And So what should have been the freest time, people were feeling the most beat down. I think this this is a resurgence of that in 2024. Many people are feeling that same thing. This is an article out of the Wall Street Journal that really stuck with me, says stay put or pay up. Home buyers are losing hope for lower rates. Now that's a very boring sounding article, isn't it?
But the key is, is is the loss of hope, which was something that people felt in the late 90s. I always refer back to this book called Term Limits, which was written by Vince Flynn. It's Pulp Fiction. It's a, you know, a bunch of special operator guys go and start killing off politicians because the politicians have betrayed their American oaths. How many people would cheer on the folks that were going after our politicians with physical
violence? At this point of any side, that is a great barometer for how bad our country is in a cultural sense, and we had that going on in the late 90s. People were fed up. They were sick of it. They were looking at costs going up. They were looking at standard of living, kind of plateauing. And what they were really looking for was purpose. They were looking at a lack of focus and purpose and a reason to be in the world. And I think a lot of that came
down to a failure of values. There's a failure to assign meaning to the suffering. That's why Jordan Peterson has been so influential in people's thoughts. He goes out there and says exactly what is true to people. Men's job is to pick up the heaviest burden possible. That job you don't like, not to buy the stuff you don't need, but to support a family. That's what all those men were lacking, by the way. They were all wage slaves.
They're white collar guys. Not a single person there has children in the Movie Fight Club. They're standing around and they're waiting tables and they're pumping gas and they're working in advertising firms. But none of them had a family to go home and assign meaning to the suffering of modern life. This Wall Street Journal article is interesting because right now we're dealing with the single worst time in at least a decade, but probably in a lot longer
than that. I've seen a couple different graphs showing it looks like there may have been a bad time, like in the in the early 2000s, but home ownership is getting further and further away. And we've always associated the American Dream and home ownership as one in the same. The white picket fence, the place that you could call your own, that the man's castle was his own Kingdom. You come home to your place and that is your place of of
solitude. It's the place where nobody could infringe on your liberties. And we're seeing that both inflation the the high rates of mortgages are tax burden including property taxes which continue to basically threaten the existence of your own home, that you don't own your home, the government you're paying forever rent on your own property.
And then the last is, is sort of the the concern of a no knock warrant of government forces coming through at either the state, the local or the federal level and invading the sanctity of that home. Isn't that worrisome? This story is written by Rachel Wolf. It's about two weeks old. At this point, prospective home buyers are giving up hope. Again, this word hope is really important, 'cause that's a lot of what America was based on, that interest rates will come down soon.
It's not about interest rates, it's about what those would mean. They are changing their life plans accordingly. This is talking about an engaged couple. They sold stocks. They had a down payment ready. They expected to rent now for another five years because it doesn't look like it's feasible.
They're just getting ready to start their lives as a married couple, another family looking to trade up, getting a bigger room or a bigger home with an extra room so they don't have to have kids, sharing that's not in there. And the persistent hope of lower rates and therefore lower monthly mortgage payments, which means you can afford more house
or better house or better area. It's not helped out because government reporting showed stubbornly high inflation, dashing hopes that the rates were about to trend lower. And many prospective buyers, already facing high housing costs and home shortages are now planning just sit it out. They're giving up. They're walking away from the so-called American Dream. It covers a couple of different families that are in that world talking about their personal
experiences. We're going to talk a little bit about them. Many people have seen the way these graphs look. The graph essentially just looks like it's just climbing and climbing and climbing with almost no end insight. We've seen mortgages go from the the low twos. I think that's where we were at in 2021. That stuck around. That was the tail end of sort of like watching Trump's policies kind of drop down a little bit. Is he responsible for all of it? No. The president doesn't handle the
entirety of the economy. But there's a there's a sense of hope when you have someone that makes better choices financially, and then you've got what Biden's been doing. What's interesting is, is the Biden administration is not willing to take credit for the way people feel about it. They want to try to redefine your sensation of your own feeling, which is that things are more expensive.
All the prices. Go back and look at what you were paying for your groceries three years ago, gas three years ago. These are very memorable because you've seen those price tags written on shelves in in black and white. You've probably seen them on a marquee as you drove in. And you know, you know what it
used to cost to do things. Many of you are probably in the same vehicles, so you knew what a tank of gas cost you to fill up, let's say your truck or your minivan in 2020, in 2021, and then you've seen it change dramatically up and down. It doesn't stay stagnant, but it's not better.
People are not better off. And then you've got this, this Sideshow Bob, this Korean Korean Jean Pierre out there saying it's really just it's your fault because you're believing what your experience is when you should be believing what the official messaging is. Government propaganda at work is. They're attempting to try to dissuade you from your own beliefs. This is actually neat because yesterday we talked about
illusory truth, right? That repeated lie that becomes true to you, interestingly enough, I think, is the government is actually competing with your own experience. They're competing with the experience of you seeing things over and over and over again. So you now have that sort of propaganda effect, except it's just the reality of your own
situation. And then you've got ladies like this out there trying to convince you otherwise, and they think if they can repeat it enough, they're going to change your mind about your own experiences. Don't believe your lying eyes. That's sort of the the, the take away from this. Let's get a little taste of it and then we'll see who these utterly unserious people are that are trying to convince us. The.
President are frustrated that despite the fact that he continues to say you know what he has done that some Americans are not feeling the impact. So look, we have seen some consumer confidence go up over the past couple of months and I think that's important to note. And so that is out there. That data is out there. Look, this is a, we're talking about a president who understands what it feels like to sit around your kitchen table and have to make difficult decision. We get that.
He gets that. This is why he's trying to build an economy from the bottom up, middle out. He's been very, very clear about this is a sympathetic president, so he gets it. So it's he's not going to be frustrated by that. What he's going to do is continue to do the additional work to lower cost and do everything that we can there and to go out there, to go out there and speak directly to the American people. I think that's the most effective way to do that.
Why does he feel the way that you do? The guy got into political office at 29 years old. What? What sort of experiences does he have in common with you? Annie, Is that possible? She used the word sympathy. That was actually the correct word, by the way. Sympathy and empathy are two words that we often sort of conflate in our society, but they're not the same thing. Sympathy means I feel as you do, which is to say that I can step into your shoes.
I have had the experience and therefore I can have the same exact feeling that you are feeling. Sympathy is the opposite. It means that I see you and I feel bad that you're feeling bad. My wife is very empathetic. Many women are empathetic. They can actually feel the hurt and the pain that you feel. Many men are sympathetic. Sympathetic just means that I see that you were in pain and I am sorry that you were in pain. But what does Biden know about making these difficult
decisions? How's he going to go out there and and build the economy? He can't build anything. He's never built anything. He's an old man. He's never built a business. They have a Biden family business that sells apparently influence. It doesn't seem to have any other products out there that what are they advising on? It's built up, you know, a a center as a vice president, I guess there's that. But I'm sure some other, some other people actually did the
physical work. It's very weird to see this lady talking about it and she has this very kind of condescending take on it. You want to know another reason that you know that people are not hopeful in this country. They're not hopeful that things are getting better birth rates. We showed it yesterday. The dinks, the dual income, no kids. That is the opposite of hope. Now they're kind of detestable because they're kind of smug looking, you know, childish. They're infantilized adults.
They're adults being treated like children, treating themselves like children. It's what happens when you give kids an allowance. They buy unserious things. They do unserious things with it. They live in, you know, nice. They spend their money on luxury items, but not on necessities. And I'm no expert on finance, but one thing that I was able to do that many people are not is take a one year hiatus from my job.
Not because I chose to, not because I planned to, but because someone asked me to do something that I wasn't going to participate in specifically. And it was really simple. By the way, folks, it's really dumb and simple. I wouldn't put a swab up my nose to indicate that I was a pro-life Christian to all those people around me because it wasn't their damn business. Not because I have a problem saying it. Because I said it to my boss and
I said it to the management. I said it to the assistant Director of Human resources at the FBI. My problem is, is that we don't draw lines about what religions are good and what religions are bad in this country, and that's part of the oath that I swore. So I found that to be morally offensive. And because of that, specifically because I wouldn't take a nasal swab every 72 hours, I lost a paycheck for for a year. That doesn't make me an expert. But my kids never went hungry
and they didn't know. We sold our house. We did all the horrible things in there. Luckily, my parents were stuck sticking around. We were able to go move into some of their extra bedrooms. But you know, we recovered from it in a way that many people would not. That could be financially
devastating. And if you look at what happens to some of the people that have stepped, stepped up against the FBI, and I'm in contact with folks that have been doing it for, you know, well over a decade, these folks have been destroyed, Their lives are uprooted and they never return. So what are we? What are we looking at here? Like, who are these people that are telling us how things are? They're smug. They're arrogant.
They don't. They don't have any sense of like Americans. Actually, their reality on the ground. You think Joe Biden's ever had to worry about $100,000 a year income? His son spent more than that on on taking money out to pay hookers for a year. He spends more money than most people make in a year on hookers and drugs and other financial transactions with women. Whatever the heck that was.
If you remember looking at his his dream sheets there this is a little story that popped up. I typed in American Dream. I got like 50 crazy responses right up front. This one Why $100,000 income no longer buys the American Dream in most places. I remember sitting in a course right after I got out of the military and I was too old to go sitting to college. But I'm sitting around a bunch of 19 and 20 year old kids in a genetics class, and genetics is
all about probabilities. It's all about math. It's all about what will happen, what the outcomes are likely to be, and you can pretty much determine them on a large enough population based on what those what those probabilities are. And the professor asked all these kids how many of you think that you're going to make $50,000 a year coming out of college and 85% of the hands in the room went up. This is maybe 200 plus kids in a lecture hall, right, 1920 years
old. All of them are pre Med, pre dentistry, stuff like that. It's just genetics. So it's a real, you know, it's a specific type of of course and the types of people that are in it, we're expecting to go get jobs in biological fields, usually healthcare 85% believe that they're going to make more than $50,000 a year coming out.
This is going back to 2012. And then he says what about 75,000 And you got over 50% of the kids thought they were going to make that right out of the bat, you know, right off the jump. And then comes the next one, How many of you expect to make over $100,000 a year as an entry level brand new college grad? And I would estimate in the 30% range, probably almost one in three kids thought that this is going back 1412 years now. So this is not recent
information. And he said the reality of it is, is that the median income is very close to the average income and at that point in time it was in the mid 30s, it was 30, four, $36,000 a year was what you could expect to earn coming out with a college degree and no previous professional experience. And that blew the mind of these kids. And everybody looked around and thought, well, that's for everybody else, that's not me. And that's a fundamental inability to process
information. It's an illusory truth issue, right? Because they've been pounded in, They're going to be rock stars and movie gods like you just heard Brad Pitt talk about. But moreover, they had it in their mind that they were the exception to the rule. And the problem is is almost always, no matter how exceptional you are, you're almost always the rule and not the exception. And this is showing this little article here, which is tragic by the way.
It's a tragic statement. It's coming from CNBC. It says that $100,000 which used to be the benchmark, they said the gold standard of a solid and and you know upper middle class income. It is no longer the case. They defined the American dream right up front, which for many people they say involves some combination of owning a home, getting married, having kids and making sure that after expenses you have enough to save for retirement and spend a little
bit on leisure. That's the American dream. I think they've they've nailed it down home, marriage, children, leisure expenses and provide for your own retirement, a full self-sufficiency. That is the American dream.
That's what the white picket fence that we heard about in the 50s represented, that you get to have your Kingdom, you get to have your own little castle, no matter how small, even on the little postage stamp sized yard that you're going to go out and mow every Saturday. But it's not real anymore because that that dollar amount won't do it, not at 7% interest rates, not when your your, your median housing prices is closing
in on $400,000 a year. It's kind of wild that we've been able to get there so quickly. There's a couple of the things on this that actually that that are I think, devastating, and they are. They speak to our national security as well. This is something coming right out of this article here. This is again coming from CNBC. Economists have suggested that debt growth has become a substitution for income growth. Student loan debt. Oh, here it is 'cause we're
going to get to campus protests. Student loan debt reached an all time high of $1.77 trillion in the first quarter of 2023 and Americans collectively a $1.13 trillion on their credit cards as of the fourth quarter of 2023. This debt can have a ripple effect especially when entire generations are starting their adulthoods with 10s of thousands of dollars in debt from student loans. And so the statement here now people making well over six figures are still living paycheck to paycheck.
So what used to be a symbol, a symbol of financial freedom is now keeping people stressed out about making ends meet. I'm going to talk about the national security implications of this because they are significant and they have a lot to do with what I just talked about, my personal situation. First, let's just talk about preparing for uncertainty.
If you do have disposable income and you are in a position to be able to keep yourself going, you may want to use it to hedge against the uncertainties when it comes to food instability and also logistical nightmares that are going on right now for Patriots. The number four patriots.com/kyle again for patriots.com slash. Kyle is our emergency prep food company that we're working with. You guys can see they sell gadgets, they sell gizmos. That's not the thing you need right up front.
What you need are food, water. You might need some electrical devices to be able to power your com so you can can't stay in touch with your neighbors and your family members and whoever is in your bug out in emergency survival plan for Patriots. Again, the number 4 PATRIO ts.com for patriots.com/kyle. We'll get you started over there and you guys can peruse. How much do you need to go and prepare for 72 hours?
That's a really good one for a car bug out bag if you're trying to get something that's light and easy. They're all freeze dried meals. They last for up to 25 years packed in this country. So you guys have that option to get yourself ahead of the curve and not be stuck in that repair situation where everything is way worse off. Let's talk about that. That situation with $100,000 is not going to get you out of the paycheck to paycheck lifestyle.
If you are paycheck to paycheck, that means that you're dependent on doing whatever it is that your job asks you to. No knock warrant. You're going to say yes. Spy on Americans using FISA. That's your job description. You better get to it. You don't have any say. You'll lose your home. You'll lose your ability to provide food for your children, which is your requirement.
You'll lose all the creature comforts if you can't say go for a few paychecks and have enough wiggle room they used to always talk about. I read, I read like guys like Robert Kiyosaki when I was a kid. Some of you guys have read the Rich Dad, Poor Dad series. You don't have to make a ton of money to be able to pay yourself first to be able to think about putting money away first.
I used to take my my what the first time I realized that the money was really important and it was going to make a big difference in whether I lived or died in the world. You go with $0.00 or negative money in your bank account when you're in your mid to late 20s. That's a that's an eye opening experience to not be able to buy food. Then you start realizing financial responsibilities up front. So what do you do? You put money away first. I used to divide my paycheck in
half at 26 years old. I used to do that. 26 years old, no kids, nothing else. I put 50% of my paycheck away immediately. And then I decided what I could afford. Rent, and I lived based on that. I used to be able to live for my entire month on one week's pay. That used to be my goal when I was single. And that's actually not that hard to do because your requirements are are almost none. 50% in savings, 25% to
cover my entire month's cost. 25% was either for leisure or for additional savings, vehicle maintenance. I I, I drove a $200 motorcycle around and I walked and used the bus. Is it fun to ride the bus when you have a college degree and you think you're something? Nope, it's not. But that's what you do if you're going to be responsible. That's how you get yourself out of being a debt slave. And then one of the things I bought when I was in the in the military was an Airstream.
I wanted to make sure that I had a little mobile house so that no matter what, nobody could kick me out and take the roof from over my head. That was the first step into it. Obviously, the next thing is, is getting married and having somebody else that you're tied to. And as a man, it's it's picking up responsibility for somebody else. It's like from here on out, I'm not just responsible for Kyle and his stupid decisions.
I'm also responsible for my wife, Emily, and I got to I got to look out for what she's about. Then you add kids to the mix and the stakes get higher, so your fail rate becomes even more more critical. So that means you start building up more and more around you, that safety zone. A lot of people are not doing that right now. They're living well beyond their means. I used to see so many people driving fancy new cars, making terrible debt decisions.
And we'd look at them and they'd go on vacations and you'd think, are they just up to their eyeballs and debt. And the answer, as you just saw, is that $100,000 won't serve. Like we survived on half of that and thrived and bought a home. If $100,000 is not getting you there, that means that your life is too expensive. You got to figure out where to cut it. And sometimes it means moving
into a cheaper place. Americans are not making those hard decisions and maybe it's because we keep electing idiots like this. One of the things that we talked about with Kamala Harris, now she know she's going to be the the VP candidate on the Democratic side and so they got to puff her up. Trump hasn't picked out whoever he's going to use. This lady is one of the dumbest politicians I've ever seen. She's bizarre and the possibility exists that she's always drunk in public.
I can't confirm it, but I'm going to show you two different clips. One, it does seem like she's drunk, she's having a good time. She's the only one you've ever been to that that thing where somebody drinks too much and they're the only one who drank too much and they're a liability to everybody else that feels like Kamala most of the time. And then you can see when she's not drunk enough to handle this stuff, this is actually directly something shared my wife's
commentary on this. So you guys are getting a little taste of what we talked about. But she looked at the second video I'm going to play you and she was like, yeah, she's not drunk enough for this kind of conversation. And you guys know exactly what I'm talking about. That girl at the party that just can't keep it together for some reason. This is This all makes sense to me that we have unserious people running it. If this is who we're putting in office, how do we expect to have
serious outcomes? Everything is in context. My mother used to. She would give us a hard time sometimes and she would say to us, I don't know what's wrong with you young people. You think you just fell out of a coconut tree. You exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you. Everything is. I don't know. I don't know. Did you just fall out of the coconut tree? Her joke is terrible. But we do exist in context, do we not?
The context is, is everything is more expensive, so you have to adjust accordingly. You can't make the economy fit what you want. So therefore you have to make choices based on the economy. And if that choice is is that you're going to keep living the way you are, complain about it, and then try to vote for a guy that's going to forgive your student debt because you took on voluntarily. A bunch of you know, liabilities financially for something that
doesn't spend any money. It means that you need boundaries and consequences. Finances used to be the consequences and the boundaries because that. I ran up hard against that at 2526 years old and realized exactly what it meant to have and to not have any money in my
back pocket. I talked to cops who used to make very little money and they said that their Sergeant would always tell them the minute you can, you take $100 bill and you stuff it in the back of your badge that way you've always got that with you wherever you're at and if you get stuck, you got 100 bucks. Now, 40 years ago that that might have been decent money that probably could get you a room and and feed you for the night.
Today it's not even going to get you like a Best Western, but the idea of pushing money into a safe place, right? It's important. It's important because it allows you to make the other difficult decisions that are not out there. Like I said, this lady at this is when I know she's not drunk enough. We need less of this. We need less of the feminine, the empathy. We need less of the mommy's
going to help you. And we need more of hard consequences in reality, which wake people up to assign suffering and meaning and to try to figure out that it's not going to help us to have a bunch of coddled adults. And that's where we are seeing massive protests on college campuses. They have fundamentally lost the boundaries, the guardrails that keep them from acting like fools. And it's maybe because people like this are some of the examples out there.
Like I said, I don't think she was drunk enough for this conversation with Drew Barrymore, but here it is. I've been thinking that we really all need a tremendous hug in the world right now, but in our country, we need you to be mamala of the country. No, we don't need you to be mamala of the country. What we need are boundaries and guardrails. We need people to start experiencing the consequences for their stupid actions, and that includes government and that includes individuals.
That goes all the way across the entire spectrum. Some of us are starting to see them, are we not? This is what this looks like again. Hope. Faith. Interesting. Those words are always used. If your hope and your faith are in finances and in government and the way that the Fed is going to change the interest rates, you have your hope and your faith in the wrong thing. Buyers are losing faith in the American dream. That's the Redfin CEO talking about it. He's obviously a real estate guy.
He's looking at it. It's a proxy. The government's got a heavy hand in what goes on in the housing market, and it shouldn't. And when it does, it leaves us in a terrible situation. Horrible. But using words like hope and faith, it's an indicator people are still looking for that thing. I'm going to tell you more how this connects in just one second. Let's talk about this little story that I found. I I just went looking for stories on American Dream.
Just those words this morning. This is one that's coming from a a website calledpublicsource.org in the community storytelling section. It's a first person essay by someone called JD Harlock and it was published 3 days ago. Four days ago, my American Dream ended on a deflated air mattress in a rundown Squirrel Hill apartment.
Last year I fled my turbulent homeland in Lebanon to join my sister in Pittsburgh. I expected prosperity and opportunity, but instead found potholes, poverty and racism. You think bringing people to this country that we can't afford to support is kind? Is that is that an empathetic way to to operate, to open up your doors and let everyone raid and pillage your cabinets and take all your things? There's nothing responsible about not defending your own
boundaries and borders. We are a country right now that has lost a physical border down on the southern border, but we've also lost the spiritual and the emotional borders, which is to say boundaries, things that you may not do. And that's how you have people overrunning college campuses.
That's why you have people that are taking out debt and not being responsible for it. And that's why we have people coming into this country looking for the thing that was always advertised and it failing on them. That's how you get a guy coming from Lebanon thinking that they're going to go to the American dream and suddenly end up in the American nightmare, living in a crappy apartment with an air mattress that doesn't even stay inflated, this
guy says. Ever since I came of age, I was preparing to leave the turmoil of Lebanon for the promises of the American dream. I was before I was born in the United States in 1996 as a young guy, only to be whisked back to Lebanon, Lebanon in my infancy. Numerous relatives from both sides of my extended family had made a home for themselves across generations. I was certain one day I would fall in their footsteps and find similar success. Lebanon had a long civil war from 1975 to 1990.
Many people left and went places, particularly in the West. This guy says that he gave a a shot in Qatar graduate occasion took the priority of the next few years until I'd lost my life savings in the liquidity crisis of 1919 in his home country of Lebanon and skirting by on a mix of cash freelance work. It's manageable until the local establishments only began accepting dollars. American dollars, leaving me unable to cover my bills.
So I had to leave Beirut again. This time Pittsburgh would be my destination. Any of you spent any time in Pittsburgh? I don't know if any of you are in Pittsburgh. I I did some surveillance work in Pittsburgh for a for a jihadi type subject. Another one of these kind of set up jobs. When you see it, once you get in there, you're like they're just trying to get this guy a gun. Young kid pissed off 20s.
The standard, you know finds a life a lot like this guy probably did and instead decides to fall in with some idiots at A at a radical mosque. And so he's decided that jihad is the answer for what he's going to do. That's how he's going to explain that he's pissed off in the world. It's a lot like the Fight Club kids by the way. The guys in Fight Club are pissed off at the world. They're just American. So they're not going to go and do jihad on America.
They're going to punch each other in the face and be miserable and not be able to figure out how to make their life better. And they plan to go and blow up all the banks, 'cause that's obviously the source of their problems, not their lack of meaning and not their lack of faith. But this kid, same story. It it's one of the most pothole ridden places.
The poverty that I saw in Pittsburgh is shocking and it's one of the Great American cities That shouldn't be terrible, but it is. It's a crisis of faith. It's a crisis of meaning. And maybe it's because people on our political left continue to say that instead of real faith and real hope in real things, things that are outside of the human experience, that don't rise and fall like interest
rates. Maybe the is true is that these people have taken the American Dream and they've decided that they're over it, they're above it. They've already accomplished what they needed to. So they're going to go out there and water down and dilute and crap on something that these people don't have. I want to talk about this article. This is actually one of the most fundamentally telling articles
that I found in quite a while. It was published yesterday in the Alabama Political Reporter by a guy named Bill Britt. Bill Britt says opinion, a threat to the American dream. I want you guys to hold on to this. The push towards a religious monoculture threatens our liberal democracy, endangering freedoms and undermining equality through restrictive, punitive legislation. This might as well be the Biden administration platform. This is exactly in a very cerebral, Ivy League sounding
thought leader type. We're too smart for religion. We have moved on from the need for God. This is what it's saying right there. The push towards a religious monoculture threatens our liberal democracy, and it endangers freedoms and undermines equality. Wow. This guy goes on and talks about that. The specter of turning America into a religious monoculture looms large, posing a severe threat to the very essence of our nation's liberal democracy. You keep hearing that word.
When we hear the word democracy, we know they mean the tyranny of the majority. We don't have a democracy. We have a democratically elected Republic, but it's a representative Republic. It is necessarily removed from the whims of the people. We're not supposed to have mob rule here. We're actually supposed to have almost nothing get done. It's supposed to be nearly impossible for Congress to do anything except to agree on the basics, And anything that has an ideological fight should be
basically thrown out. It's not supposed to move with the whims of the people which change like this idiot. This guy's out there talking about Alabama having anti choice legislation. You know what that is? That's the pro-life stuff America. The argument that Ben Shapiro has is that it has two fundamental and founding sins at the at the rebirth. The first one was slavery, where we didn't acknowledge the
personhood of black people. And the 2nd is abortion, where we don't acknowledge the personhood of babies that are not born to call it anti choice legislation because the choice is is whether or not you're going to tolerate inconvenient people. It's fundamentally UN American, is it not? There's nothing democratic about that. Does the baby get a vote? No. But he calls them misogynistic laws that scream a disturbing message to women and young sorry
to women and young girls. To conservatives, their primary worth is nothing more than incubator incubators and broodmares. Yeah right. That's what we value with women. We just think that they're supposed to be breeders, right? That's what people on the conservative right think. This is my problem with what has been going on, the the lack of values on the political right. If you argue from a place of no value, then you argue from
nothing at all. You have your firm feet in the sand and it slips and it falls underneath you. You can't hold footing because you're not on firm ground if you want to get on Terra Firma. This country was founded on Christian values. They are Western values. They came out of Greece and they came out of Rome, but they are tinged with something that didn't exist then, and that's Christianity. That means that there's a
fundamental worth in all people. And if we don't hold that to be true, then we don't even have the opening of the preamble. Men can't be created equal if we don't actually think that people are of value. That idea that men are created equal, that actually comes from Christianity. It's not. It's not a like a like a obscure argument. There's no society that has ever made the argument that human beings matter intrinsically. People always looked at their circumstances.
Do they have money? Do they have power? Do they have wealth? Or they're favored by the gods. God loves them. Doesn't matter whether you're a polytheist or a monotheist, and if not, the gods must hate them. The gods frown upon them, right? That's the way this looks. This guy doesn't even understand the basics of what he's arguing in behalf of. He's saying that this is somehow the the founders vision, that the nation was built on universal equality and natural rights.
That's right, Natural rights. And then he makes a pro abortion argument in the same sentence. How nuts are we right now? How far away from understanding what the basics are?
This article's worth a read. It's worth a read because what it tells you exactly what the what the intellectual under undercurrent is of the political left, what they're selling, and then why it leads teenagers to think that they need to go out there and take over college campuses and they're empowered to fix the problems of the world that are all the way across the globe. They're going to go solve the problems in Gaza, which they probably can't find on a map, as
we've said before. But they can't even figure out how to handle their own freaking finances. And they're signing up for hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of student loan debt that they never will be able to repay. And they think that you should repay it because they need to be educated. But they're not being educated. They're being indoctrinated. They didn't come there with any ideas. They're empty vessels being filled with stupid choices, and
they continue to act that way. It's amazing to me that we are living at a time seeing this, but we are seeing what happens when you don't parent. They are looking for the government to be the parent. We're looking for law enforcement to be the parent over and over again. It continues to be the case, all right. And that's how you end up with cops being killed because bad idea theater continues to exist all the way down to the lowest
level in the dregs of society. The people that will always be on the fringe in the outskirts of listening to our social contract and and and violating it just changes the terms of it because we've actually lowered the common denominator in this country. I'm gonna get into that in just a second here and why I think it all matters. I got some clips coming from the college campuses. Like I said, this is a this is a problem of values in this country. That's why this crisis exists.

Patriot coolers.com again. Patriot coolers.com promo code. Kyle. Kyle. As usual. Guys, let's let's just kind of keep pressing on this is how foolish the people are that are
living under these delusions. These are young women who have been filled with bad ideas, sitting on college campuses telling us that they don't even know why they're there, but they have these feelings, these instincts, and they're going to be there. This is Taylor Hanson from Tenant News or Tenant Media, who does a a great job right now and he acts. He's very neutral in his questions, which is what we want to see.
Listen to what this woman says about why she's sitting on a college campus right now and what her protest is in, in order what she's going to accomplish with her protest. So what brings you out to the University of Utah campus today, kind of, you know, with this encampment situation going on?
Just what's happening in Gaza, obviously, they I I saw a poll recently that described how like 70 to 80% of Palestinians believe that they will be victorious in the end of this struggle and that they're counting on people here to support them in that, Do you know what I mean? And so I'm here to support them. What do you think the end goal is, you know, for this encampment and the other encampments that we've seen, you know, popping up across colleges
in America? Honestly, it's just here to ultimately bring awareness to the situation and to help contribute to a free Palestine and to help contribute to, sorry, my mind's drawing a blink, just an end to the apartheid and stuff like that. And then? Final thing for you, I see you're painting, you know a rip Aaron Bushnell. You know mural for him. He was the one that self inhalated was about a month and a half ago. The Air Force veteran What kind
of drives you to paint out here? I mean the same thing that drove people in the West Bank, I think, to name a street after him. Do you know what I mean? Just to honor his memory, a lot of people have come to regard him as among the martyrs in Palestine. As a formerly religious person. I've come to regard him as something of a St. Do you know what I mean? I think his death was very sacred and holy, and I I want to
honor that. His death was very sacred and holy, and she wants to honor that because he was a martyr. He was a mentally confused person looking for a cause and he lit himself on fire. But isn't it interesting? She hones right in on it as a formerly religious person. How old is this girl? Is she maybe 2122 years old, tops? She's sitting on a college campus, as many of you pointed out. She's wearing a tank top, and she's got cleavage showing.
I'm sure that would go over really well, really well over in Gaza, in any of the Arab nations. How is she going to make an impact? By drawing a picture of a guy who lit himself on fire, foolishly accomplishing almost nothing. Most of us don't think about him until we brought it up today.
Meanwhile, the Arab States and many billionaires, including the founders of Hamas, the people that actually run the political movement that keeps the the the Palestinian Authority working, right, Those people, they're billionaires. They're living in Qatar, They're hanging out in luxury apartments, driving, driving Italian sports cars. We've played that, that video before, utter foolishness, children without focus, without values, without an
understanding. And meanwhile, you're getting the same exact takes out of members of Congress. They know what they're doing. This woman knows what she's doing. She's setting up what we would call the the false dichotomy or a false binary. She's saying you're either pro Gaza or you're pro genocide. That's the two choices. And she wants to defend all people no matter how they feel. But she does want to frame you as the bad guy right away. This is Ilhan Omar walking on a
college campus. I think she's actually doing this up in Columbia. It wasn't real clear where she's walking, but her message is the same. Take a listen to this woman. How do you think this will translate to the Jewish students who are facing anti-Semitism
here on campus? So I actually met a lot of Jewish students that are in the encampments and I think it is really unfortunate that people don't care about the the fact that all Jewish kids should be kept safe and that we should not have to tolerate anti-Semitism or bigotry for all Jewish students, whether they are pro genocide or anti genocide.
How do you think this will? I just want to disavow all anti-Semitism, Even if you're pro genocide and you know, because if you believe in Israel then then you're pro genocide. That's the framing that she just did. Isn't that fun? Isn't that interesting? And that leads to people who have simple ideas. They have nothing outside of themselves to fill themselves, their empty vessels. And so they fill themselves with this sort of stuff where they gets increasingly stupider and
stupider. This is a UCLA student on the University of California, Los Angeles attempting to go to class. He's wearing a Star of David on his neck, and he's just illustrating what happens when you take vessels that have no thoughts of their own and you give them crappy ideas because they have nothing to assign themselves to outside of their own bad ideas. And whatever sort of Marxist garbage is being poured into their heads. Why are we sending our kids to
college? My wife and I saw this stuff and we're like, no, we we already knew that we weren't saving money for college. It's a bad idea. This should reaffirm if you got your kids in colleges and you're not paying attention to what they're being indoctrinated with, this is how you get this kind of behavior. If they don't have faith in something, it will be filled. That void will be filled. It'll be filled with this garbage. You guys have closed the entrance. We are UCLA students.
I have my ID right here. I mean, blocked off, not by the security guard, but by you two. You 30. Look, they're making their burger while I'm going this way. This is what they do. Everybody look at this. Look at this. I'm a UCLA student. I deserve to go here. We pay tuition. This is our school, and they're not letting me walk in. My class is over there. I want to use that entrance. Why can't they go? Will you let me go in? This could be over in a second. Just let me and my friends go in
to class. We're not engaging. Then you can move well, you moved we're. Not engaged in. That OK, we're going, We're going. I'm going in. I don't. I have my hands up. I'm not hurting them. And you'll notice that it's women that are up there, the most impressionable, the ones who are most susceptible to societal pressures. None of them have the confidence of showing their face, 'cause they know that they're going to have their their faces on
camera. And then you see sort of like these weak beta men standing behind them stepping in continues to go on. I I like what this guy's proving by doing it. Here's another little taste of that. This I believe, actually happened in Columbia. So you went from Los Angeles. Now we got New York and this one is a building that was taken over. They're they're requiring you to have a wristband to get into a university and property that they do not own that they have no right to talk about the
American dream. How about just squatters rights going on right now? That's something that we see, this value that keeps getting pushed out there. And this is a little taste. This is what is this a nightclub? You need a, you need a wristband. It's. Time to go. What? You don't have any wristband? What do I need? A wristband? It's time to go. I can stand here if I want. I'm not moving, OK? They're now coordinating me. I'm not moving.
Say whatever. It's so awkward to watch these people because you know that they don't have any convictions. They they have this feeling that they're supposed to be there, but it's not backstopped by anything. There's no real conviction underneath it. So they're they're standing in the way because their friends are standing in the way. They don't want to be the first person to crack that sort of human instinct. But none of this stuff, this tribal stupidity has any real
firm footing. It's not like they can have, you know, an actual debate about this and stand on the merits because there is no merit to blocking the right of way of another person. There's nothing American about it. And so they've been filled in with non American values because the American dream is is not there, their hopes not there, their faiths, it's in something that is wishy washy. They don't stand for anything. So they were able to fall for this, this, this myth and it's
sad. I want to pivot in one second. We're going to talk about the law enforcement shooting that happened in in Charlotte and I'll give you kind of a take on that. And then we're going to pivot lastly to talk about The Who and acknowledging something that we've always known because we've seen all these protesters. What are they all wearing? They're all wearing masks because that's sort of the new, the new little show. It shows a lack of faith in their convictions and what
they're standing for. But it also shows sort of like that groupthink mentality that was pushed out. And we started seeing a lot of that in in 2020. And so it's continuing onward. All right.

If you're looking for a product that's going to be able to serve you, let's talk about law enforcement shootings. I think it all actually wraps up in here. It's coming from a fundamental crisis in this country, a lack of values and a lack of tactics being adapted. Instead of us getting better,
we're getting stupider. We're using dumb old tactics that have been around since, let's say, I don't know, at least the 80s, this sort of no knock warrant thing. This is Terry C Hughes Junior. You're seeing the rap sheet up there. A 39 year old African American male, black male who was shot and killed in Charlotte got the article right up here. US Marshall, that's a deputy.
Marshall and three other law enforcement officers were killed serving a warrant in Charlotte. Standoff lasted for hours for the police were actually able to clear the scene. And so some of you guys have actually seen that this happened. This was part of a Marshall's task force, what they call a fugitive task force. The FBI often times will oversee these kind of things.
When I was working in the Washington field office, we had one agent, we had a handful of deputy marshals, and then they would work with local police officers all over the place in order to go after what they would call the fugitives. The fugitives are people who are fleeing justice. There's a federal charge there that allows any flight from justice to be prosecuted. On the federal level, it's EU FAP, or the unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.
In this case, eight law enforcement officials were shot, including two corrections officers who were killed. A police officer from Charlotte critically wounded and then later died. Three other Charlotte police officers were also shot. This is an absolutely devastating day for law enforcement and it's also very predictable. It's shocking. It doesn't happen far more frequently.
I my heart goes out to these officers who thought they were doing the right thing and went out there and continued to do the job. Anyone who dies in the line of duty, they have my, you know, my sympathy and they have their families have my sympathy because I don't think any of these men sought out there to do something that was foolish. But this is a predictably dumb thing.
And it's the saddest. The Marshall's task force, they basically went after this dude because he was a formerly convicted felon, which we'll show you on the screen. Here, let me just pop it on the screen. So this is the the rap sheet you saw initially. There was a a breaking and entering charge in 2009.
These are additional charges. These are all either misdemeanors or they are showing felony felony possession, which is a a federal crime, both usually a state crime as well, but also those are all felonies going back to 2012. So he was known to possess firearms and in this case we've got them out there trying to remove firearms and so they went out there and executed what they do, a knock down of the door, whether it was a no knock warrant or a knock warrant is
actually sort of irrelevant. When you do it that early in the morning, most people are not paying attention. Imagine if you're laying in bed and an hour that you're normally in bed doesn't have to be 6:00 AM but that's generally when the federal, federal agents will come knocking. They will bang on the door, usually 3 knocks Bang Bang, bang. You know search warrant, arrest warrant, open the door, arrest warrant, open the door, they'll
wait. What is considered to be, quote UN quote a reasonable amount of time that's supposed to be in your mind, the amount of time that somebody from the back of the house can get to the front of the house. And generally speaking these types of teams are going to then hit the door with a ram and they're going to go in and they're going to process in in a in a stack the way that you would do a military takedown of the house. They have slightly different taxes because they can wait
longer outside. They don't have to rush in, like from an alley where they're taking fire. They're going from a safe area to an unsafe area. They go into an uncleared house and they are then engaging people in their native environment where they either have weapons stashed or a plan, or they are completely unaware and decide to defend themselves because they don't know who's coming in the door. Because not everybody understands what the Hell's coming in.
The problem with this stupid tactic, and it is a stupid tactic, is it inevitably is either going to put the subject in danger or the law enforcement officers in danger and most likely both. We made arguments about why this was so stupid over and over again on my surveillance team, the easiest thing in the world is what we used to do is called TSI. I've seen it executed on guys. We watched our SWOT team go and grab three Ms. 13 subjects in a day and that was considered a big deal.
The Washington field office had I think like 50 plus members on their SWOT team. They're all part time SWOT operator guys. My surveillance team had eight, and we took as many subjects in the same day. We took down three just as easily. And what we did was we followed them. We tracked them. We grabbed one guy coming out of a 711. Very easy to do. You walk in, the guy goes and gets coffee. You block in the car, you come in at a safe angle, You have another person sitting by the door.
When he walks out, all he has to do is just let him know. Hey, quietly. Listen, you're under arrest. I know you have coffee in your hands. We're going to put those on the hood of the car. Keep your hands where we can see them at all times. Nothing bad will happen to you. The vehicle can't leave. You put them in cuffs. You can search them. Everybody in the scene is safer. You do it in public. You can do it while they're pumping gas. You can do it while they're working on their construction
site, which we've done as well. We arrested a guy who was in the middle of trying to frame doors and he had a freaking door in his hand. You walk up and you're like, go ahead and drop the door right in front of you. Keep those hands right where they are. We're going to come in and put you in cuffs. 0 incidents it took four guys, 4 dudes walking into a school.
By the way. It was it was a school that wasn't in session, but there was a school bus there and we rolled in. They were in the middle of doing construction and we arrested the guy on the job site, MS13. The guy who was a sexual batterer and had threatened women with their lives and probably hadn't been involved in some of the the nasty, physical violence, machetes and so on. Really easy. You just catch them unawares and it's safer for them. It's safer for the cops, it's
safer for the for the subjects. It's safer for the public to engage people in places where they are not trying to defend their home. Or you can have a government that wants to let you know that you're not safe in your own home. You don't talk about destruction of the American dream. That's what that does. It lets you know that there's no place that we can't reach out and grab you for a weapons charge. The guy wasn't like a danger to the public right then.
Wait till he goes to work. Wait till he comes out and gets his mail. There's a million things you can do if you're patient, and our law enforcement is paid to be patient, not to go and kick down doors like they do overseas. It's not how we fund our law enforcement in this country. But we are seeing more and more of that. A lot of it comes from the bad ideas that came right after that
Fight Club movie. Because the next thing that happened that I remember in my, like, meaningful experience was that our country fundamentally changed on 9/11. And we have a warlike mentality, but we can't have a war on crime if we're going to have the same RO ES because we have a Constitution. Unless you don't know what that means. And it feels like more and more, we don't know what that means. A lot of people are always scared that we're going to have The Who come in and take over
our nation. Some of the dumbest things have come from this group of people, doctors who probably mean well but are not American. They don't get to make American policy. So this is a little interesting story that I saw coming out today. This is from NBC News. It's a reprint from a woman named Amy Maxman, who apparently writes for KFF Health News. I'm going to tell you how reputable that is. What you're seeing on the screen is The Who overturned dogma on
how airborne diseases spread. Will the CDC act on it? So this is an advocacy piece they're hoping that the CDC takes on WHO policy, says a new report comes out. As the CDC is updating its guidelines and its guidance for infection control, the committee advising the agency seems poised to brush aside the latest science. What does the latest science say? It says the same thing that all of us knew while COVID was going around in 2020 and that all of us have known for a very long
time. Essentially, they're saying that it's decades old ideas, that you're going to only be able to communicate respiratory illnesses through droplets, which means that they're going to be sneezed. Someone has to sneeze directly into your mouth, your nose, your eyes, like one of the mucosal membranes, or they have to sneeze into their hands and then transmit it over to you, and then you transmit it into those mouth, nose or eyes. Not that you're going to breathe it in.
Whereas the new guidance is essentially says, yeah, of course you can breathe it in because the air will essentially have not droplets per SE, but actual live virus floating around in it because viruses can be spread in an aerosol. That's it. The thing that we've all known forever, anybody who knows that anybody who's ever been served in the military and gone through a biological, chemical, nuclear training, what they call Sea Bernie. You get jocked up all the way from head to toe.
You cover yourself from the top of your hair all the way down to your toes and boots and then all those areas that might have a little leak, they get duct taped up and sealed. There's not supposed to be any air coming in. Think about what you've ever seen, if you've seen the movie Outbreak, which was a thing that Dustin Hoffman did when I was a
kid, right. They put on these hapers, these self-contained breathing suits, and if you get a cut in them, you're panicked because the possibility of getting something in, they're supposed to positively push air out. Like you're the Michelin Man, so you don't have air come in because the air could have the virus. That's the whole point. We've all known this forever. Like, as far as I've been alive, I knew that. That's how viruses moved around, why they have this going on.
And then in the meantime, they're doing this advocacy work. And the funniest thing for me is, is that they have this. They They cite KFF Health News, which I wanted to go and look at. This is a woman named Jane Spencer who is writing for them, and also the Guardian. 12 months of trauma. More than 3600 healthcare workers died in Covid's first year. I immediately discount this garbage because I just look at all I need to do is see are you working from an ideological perspective.
Here's what they said. They were talking about a a program that the Guardian launched to be able to track COVID deaths. This is going back to 2021, the project which tracked who died and why. Oh really they did they determine how, how they died and why? Show the inner workings and failings of the US health system.
One key finding 2/3 of the deceased healthcare workers from whom the project has identified as people of color, shows that there is deep iniquities tied to race, ethnicity and economic status in America's health care workforce. Lower paid workers who handle patients every single day, including nurses, support staff and nursing home employees, were far more likely to die in the pandemic than physicians were.
Well, probably that's a lot to do with exposure and the number of physicians that are out there, which is smaller. And more importantly, and probably most importantly, there's not a ton of fat doctors. There may be some, but I I rarely, and I don't think I know any emergency room physicians that were massively overweight. I saw a ton of nurses and technicians that are massively overweight and who died during that pandemic, right? Who's sick people and fat people and unhealthy people.
This is all bad, but just be aware that the masking guidelines are going to come back out there at some point in time. We should be waiting on it in 2024. They mentioned this in the piece from from NBC News that they're talking about. We need to have more high quality masks. We need more N90 fives. And what do you see those idiots wearing on the protest front? They're already ahead of the curve. They're just reaffirming what's
already out there. Instead of having real faith in real things, they're going to put their faith in like garbage masks that are not designed to stop viruses and they're not going to keep you safe, but they will make you feel good and make you feel like you're on the right team. You can identify your team colors by whether or not you're wearing that stuff. Worth knowing. All right, that's what we got for today.
The, the palate cleanser, I guess I have, which is a little bit interesting and kind of funny. Well, let me first start with this. This is why I think it's so dangerous, because they're actually getting children involved. They're trying to indoctrinate kids. If you remember, they were making kids mask as young as two years old on planes. They're doing the same thing with this protest garbage. You get kids involved.
This is over at Virginia Tech. So another school that has been taken over, look at this little kid leading a chant. Like seriously, you're going to listen to this little kid. He's telling adults how to operate and they're following suit and then they're acting. You know who else uses human Shields that are children? Just saying consider who, Consider the tactics and see where they come from. It's for people that don't actually have any value in human
innocence and children. Leaving When Palestine is under attack, what do we do When Palestine is under attack, what do we do? When Yana is under attack, what do we do? All right, so there you go. That's a little kid. That kid is being probably abused, I would say, and looks like, I don't know, five to seven years old, something like that. My kids age. My oldest. What the hell is he talking about? He has no idea. There is an answer to all this.
The anecdote, it turns out, is the oldest thing in the world. It's take your kids to church and discipline them when needing. I've had multiple people come up and say my my kids are not the best behaved children in the world. Like any other children, they have their moments, but we keep going out to restaurants and having folks come up to talk to us about it. I had a a couple that were sitting at a restaurant. We went out to lunch and we sat them down was an outdoor patio.
It's a bar in in our little town and but they serve, you know, lunch, food and it was decent. So we sit the little kids down there. I've got my infant in my my arms in my wife's arms. We've got a three-year old, we've got a 5 year old and a six year old. They're all small and they're all sitting there.
And after this couple next to us finished, they walked up and they said, you know, when we first saw you came up, we cringed and we thought, oh God, a family full of children is going to sit next to us. It's going to ruin our lunch. But you have the best behaved children. And I remember my parents hearing the same exact things when I was a kid. And it was always a source of pride for them. It was always kind of a source of embarrassment for me because I thought, like, don't all kids
behave like this? Had the same happened to me yesterday at Costco, taking my kids out. And I've got three of them. My wife had the infant sleeping in the car. So I've got a three-year old sitting in the cart. I've got my 5 year old and my 6 year old holding on on either side of it, woman comes up, she says your children are so well behaved. And I always say the same thing because I think it's funny, but it's also true. I said, yeah, regular beatings
is the answer. And she said, oh, I don't believe that. Well, beatings can come in a lot of forms. And I say beatings because it's much more emotional for folks. The fact the matter is, is discipline is what it comes down to that they know that there is a hard boundary they cannot cross. Mom and dad both have them and if you walk across them you will find out what that is. A lot of adults are finding out.
We call it the FAFO principles right F around and find out that's because they didn't get it when they were kids. They didn't figure out where that hard line is. Here's somebody finding out that hard line. Unfortunately, we're going to have to treat a lot of this generation who are in their late teens and early 20s and maybe even older like toddlers. This is one man doing the work that his parents should have been that this kids parents
should have been doing. And it's always been the same. These are old principles. Anyway, watch this. This will make you guys laugh. You're hurting me. You're hurting me. Help. Help. Help. Help. Absolutely hilarious. That is a teenager with long hair who is in handcuffs. He falls to the ground and screams you're hurting me.
And a state trooper picks him up bodily between the legs and under the neck, scoops him up like a turd and just walks off with him because that's how sometimes you got to do it. That guy probably hurt his back because that's not a great way to lift anybody. But you know what? It also showed we're going to the car. And when I went through the law enforcement academies, they said you do, You ask, then you tell and then you make.
I guarantee you that guy had already asked and told him so he moved on to make and that's the way it has to be. Sometimes you have to actually butt up against the consequences to figure out how it all works. All right, folks, that's it for us today.
