Hey, everyone. Welcome back to Underreported Stories, where I cover the news that CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News failed to report on or don't report on enough. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. It's Tuesday, so you're already into your week, but I got back from a long weekend. This weekend, I went to a friend's wedding in Cabo. It was stunning. I'm so perfectly tan. Just kidding.
I'm kind of that, like, light crisp tan where you know it's gonna wear off by the end of the week, but you feel and look good for, like, a day or two. That's where I'm at. Anyway, beautiful wedding down in Cabo. I had kind of an epiphany about weddings when I was down there this weekend because this wedding was the perfect essence of my friend. Okay? Like, if you could encapsulate this couple into one day, it would have been this wedding day.
And I think that's what I've been getting wrong about wedding culture or talking about wedding culture. It's not big versus small, good versus bad. It is weddings that capture the essence of the couple versus these generic boring weddings that are over the top for the sake of being over the top to showcase that you have money or something like that. The this wedding was so perfectly done. Like, they're really wild, fun party people, and every step of their wedding exemplified that.
And so that's what I loved. I'm so sick of going to weddings where it's just like copy and paste, copy and paste. We're doing it to do it. Like, do it because you wanna do it or because you wanna do you know what I mean? You know what I mean? Anyway, that was just kind of a thought off the top of my head. Anyway, not to be so annoying about this, but I'm probably gonna be saying this a lot. It's my last week in the studio.
So we can get emo about it or not because what's to come is honestly so much better. But in the next, what, like, two weeks, basically, from February 7 till February 16, if I am around slightly less, obviously, the podcast will still be around. But if maybe we're missing a video that usually would be there on a Monday or a Wednesday. It's just because I'm in the process of moving to the suburbs.
We are doing, like, one of those long ass moves where, like, you move one weekend, and you move some stuff throughout the week, and then the movers come the next. It's just like, but we're starting to move off by doing the studio. So I'm gonna be moving my second bedroom slash studio to our new place this weekend. So come Tuesday next week, which is February 11, this show is going to look the exact like, it's going to be the exact same. We're not gonna change the format.
We're not changing anything. But the look of this studio, the branding, the intro, the logos, all of that stuff is going to look so different and so good. We've been working on this for probably a month now, and I've gotta be, just being real with you. I'm one of those people that's, like, I'm good at keeping your actual secrets, but when it comes to a project or something, I'm one of those people that, like, wants to show people every little step of it.
I'm like, look at what this is and look at that. That's just how I am. So I'm just ecstatic to show you and share with you what we've been working on. So Tuesday is that day. Anyway, let's get into our big news of the day. We actually have big news that kinda came on right before I started reporting this, that at least 20,000 federal workers have accepted Trump's government buyout offers. This is according to Axios.
I just see the headline and, like, a little bit of information, and I wanna make sure I give you guys the most up to date accurate information on this. So I'm not going to report this out quite yet, but I'm hoping to put out some sort of reel or YouTube short in the next twenty four hours with all the information we have thus far. So keep your eyes peeled on that.
But stories we do have that we can talk about and that are very good are the tariff story as well as Trump's continued deportations efforts. And I wanna talk about those two off the bat. Let's start off with the tariffs. More specifically, I wanna talk about the Canadian tariff war. If you could even call it a war. I don't think you can call this a war. It's not a war. It was literally over in the blink of an eye. It went so quickly. But in case you guys didn't know this, I'm Canadian.
Like, kind of. I'm was born in Canada, but I came here when I was four and a half or five. So I've only ever known being American, really. And this month, February, I'm celebrating ten years of citizenship. And I'm so excited about that. Like, I have lived here my whole life. I'm so happy to be a citizen. I love it. I have no allegiance to Canadian brethren.
But I just feel like I can give you a foray into the mindset of Canadians that other creators and journalists simply can't because this is my life and my family and everything. So in case you missed it, Trump threatened and then paused his planned 25% tariffs on Canadian imports for thirty days after the human tampon equivalent of, yeah, Justin Trudeau. He announced new border security measures, and after that, the tariffs were dropped.
Now, in full transparency, I'm not entirely sure why border security measures were, like, the biggest deal on our northern border relative to our southern border. And I think what kind of miffed me about the strategy was why the same level of tariffs were levied against both countries, both Canada and Mexico, for what I would say is not controversial, a disproportionate problem that comes from the South. Right?
Mexico has a way bigger problem with their border than we do with our border in Canada. So the idea that the same tariffs were levied against both countries, I found that to be odd. But at the same time, what I've learned in the last eight plus years of covering Donald Trump is I don't question the madness of the man anymore. Okay? Because clearly, it worked. But Canada, including, I might add, the really based politicians in Canada.
They announced retaliatory tariffs on The US almost immediately. There was one instance, I believe it was British Columbia, saying that they wouldn't import alcohol specifically from red states, which was clearly a target on Tennessee and Kentucky. What? Okay. Interesting target. But beyond just, like, the political tariffs of this, there were the cultural sentiments.
There was a lot of backlash being reported in mostly mainstream outlets about the way the Canadian people were reacting to the American people. And one of the instances was this Canadian Reddit thread that I'm gonna pull up here. And what was odd odd, I guess, about it, was how viral it went. It reads, dear Americans, you will never be forgiven. And then the post proceeds to call us all a bunch of imperialists in hopes that we collapse as a nation.
But I think posts like this, they're being amplified because the corporate media that this is what they want us to believe. They want us to believe that Donald Trump's ego is so big. He couldn't follow through on the tariffs that he placed on Canada because the oh so nice Canadians didn't like him. Oh, they they booed the American flag at a Toronto Raptors game, and and that changed Trump's mind. Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? Now, as a Canadian, I guess I'm gonna call it former.
Because technically, I'm a dual citizen, but I lost my Canadian passport when I was perhaps a little too intoxicated in college. So I don't even know if I would consider myself Canadian anymore by even the legal means. But anyway, my parents grew up very Canadian, so I have a lot of foray into this. They grew up their whole lives there. Okay? They moved here to California and then to Illinois and then just kind of lived all over.
They moved here when they were in their early thirties with us, And I can confidently say Canadians have hated Americans well before the tariff threats. Like, this is not a new sentiment in the slightest. And I think that's the media wants us to think like, oh my gosh, the Canadian people revolted and that's what drew Trump to the negotiating table. No. Like, no. My dad has openly told me about how difficult it was for him to move to America because he really didn't like America.
They have kind of like and this isn't a slight tone. It's just like they kinda have this big brother syndrome with America where they kind of view themselves as like, why are we constantly number two? These people are so bombastic and rude and brash and they're just a very meek and mild, like, group of people, generally speaking. You know, I wouldn't consider myself in that category either, and I'm Canadian ancestry as well. Right?
So that is kind of, like, always been a culture in Canada, and this idea that the tariffs created a whole new anti American sentiment is just stupid. You're either not paying attention or you're not paying attention. Like, there's no in between. So I no. I don't think that Trump backed down on the tariffs because the Canadians booed our flag. Okay?
He backed off because the tariffs are a bargaining tactic used to threaten our allies into building up necessary infrastructure, so we, as Americans, don't have to pay for it. And if you don't realize the genius in this, this isn't for you. Okay? Turn your show off now. This is not for you. Anyway, another big story we've been following is the immigration and deportation efforts by the Trump administration.
And over the weekend, the weirdest underreported story snuck by from Phil Murphy, the governor of New Jersey. He said in this weird ass interview that there's an illegal immigrant who is living in his garage. And then he taunted the feds and said, you you can't get her. Like, they're the feds. They can definitely get her.
But what I found so odd about this whole situation, like, okay, proclaiming that you have an illegal immigrant in your house when I'm going to assume he obviously doesn't have like, this is all political show and theater. But honestly, if you're interested in protecting this person from deportations, which he shouldn't, but in his case, if he was actually interested in his version of virtue, Why would he outer location?
Because after this weird interview, to which a Murphy aide, by the way, has since said that the governor is being misinterpreted. I don't know how he could be misinterpreted. I I listened to it. Like, he clearly was saying that there was an illegal immigrant living in his house. But Tom Homan, our border czar, is now investigating governor Phil Murphy and threatening legal action against him for harboring an illegal immigrant. I'm like, guys, this is what we need.
We need more action against these crazy things. And this is not at all, let's be clear. This is not at all about Phil Murphy being a righteous person. This is being used by him to score political points with the far left bays, who they have the tendency to compare the hiding of illegal immigrants and, like, harboring of illegal immigrants to the hiding of Jews and not to Germany. That's they love to do this shit.
So this is just him trying to score political part points, not be a good or virtuous person. But I didn't have even bringing this up even if it was totally a lie, which it obviously was. Anyway, let's get into our underreported stories today. I want to talk about the disbanding of USAID. I got that request a lot from you guys on Instagram to talk about that.
I also wanna talk about Donald Trump's executive order to stop the medical transitioning of children and a state that is refusing to comply with this. Plus, the airport authority we Excuse me. The airport authority workers charged with leaking videos of the tragic DC plane crash. Sorry. Words. They have been arrested. And we have got to get to all those stories and more. So without further ado, these are the 500 reported stories that you need to know.
Today's show is brought to you by Based, my merch line, and we've just unveiled our winter line with a new beanie, a hoodie, a shirt, and a tote bag. I'm an independent creator, and one of the best ways, if not the best way, to support this show is by purchasing my merch line that represents your views. Instead of just asking you guys for donations to fund my independent journalism, my business partner and I created a line of merch called Based Apparel.

And when you get your apparel, please be sure to tag me on Instagram so I can repost it.
There's been a lot of conversation about the disintegration of the US Department of International Development or USAID. So Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency or DOGE. So two acronyms you need to know, USAID and Doge. Okay? Doge is pushing the Trump administration right now to dissolve USAID, which the agency on its face doesn't seem like it's an inherently evil thing. Right?
It's the agency that's responsible for giving our development assistance out to countries and people in need, specifically in Africa. And I I actually will say credit where credit is due. USAID has done a wonderful job at branding itself as a kind of, like, Doctors Without Borders charity mission. Like, we're helping the most needy people in the world.
But it's actually one of the largest official aid agencies in the world, and it's so big that we're finally finding out what the USAID is spending money on after a DOGE analysis. So I've currently already reported that we've spent $15,000,000 on funding contraception and birth control to the Taliban, fifty million dollars, to Gaza and Jordan for gynecological care, similar birth control efforts, but there are some more. And by the way, I've seen in the comment a lot.
I've been reporting on this $15,000,000 to the Taliban, fifty million to Gaza and Jordan. They are two separate stories. I keep getting a lot of comments. I thought it was 50. I thought it was 50. Well, they're two separate. It's 65,000,000 in total, but two separate just to clarify. But these are some other programs that we're funding right now. No matter where you fall on the political spectrum, I think this is objectively insane spending.
We are spending $1,000,000 to make disabled Tajikistanis climate leaders. We're spending a million dollars for foreign DEI programs, including indigenous language technology in Guatemala. We spent nearly a hundred thousand dollars to a Palestinian activist group whose leaders hailed the well, one of the basically, the Palestinian Liberation Front, whatever they call themselves.
We basically spent a hundred thousand dollars on terrorism, and then we spent a million to a Hamas linked charity, 1,500,000.0 to empower female climate activists in Northern Kenya, 15 Million for contraceptives and condoms in the Taliban controlled Afghanistan. Yeah. The list goes on and on, but those are some major ones that really showcase how absolutely insane the spending has gotten over at USAID.
Now Democrats are big mad about this because they believe that Elon Musk's efforts to minimize USAID's spending is somehow thwarting Congress's power of the purse. Now I understand the argument. I'm quite sympathetic to the idea that once Congress passes a law, it is, you know, we're supposed to enact that law whether we like it or not. But I think people on the Internet are getting smart about this.
Like, Americans are getting smart about this, and they think that this is all a money laundering scheme. And so when we're talking about congressional spending, it's like, do we have to enact the laws of truly money laundering to other countries? I I I think the the money is also designated to USAID. USAID doesn't have to spend it on Taliban contraceptives. Right? Now USAID and its original mission, I don't really have too much of a problem with.
But what it's done is it's it's slowly evolved into America becoming the sugar daddies of the world. That's how that's the best way I can describe it. Right? And what anti Trump people miss when they're attacking him for going after democracy, going after funding that's been approved by congress, blah blah blah, They are missing that getting rid of some of this aid, which is, again, I'm not saying we should get rid of that money. We should use that $50,000,000 to help Oakland or something.
Like, I let's help Americans with that money. But what these anti Trump people miss is, like, he is forcing other countries to bolster their own spending because we're taking it away from them. They're forced to bolster their own security because they should be doing that on their own. We shouldn't have to subsidize this.
Just because England or, like, a European Union com country or I mean, this isn't common in Africa, but these countries that have, like, big social welfare systems, like, we're not subsidizing your national security so you can have these programs. We need to be spending our money on our people, not spending it on your military necessities because your dumbasses don't know how to spend money properly. Like, that's not the job of Americans.
I think people are waking up to that, but here's where the underreported aspect of this story comes in. So not only is the USAID a seemingly corrupt agency as they've clearly spelled out, but it turns out that 97% of the workforce is a bunch of Looney Tunes libs. Okay? 97% of political contributions from USAID, employees, not the actual organization, the employees, went to Democrats in the twenty twenty four election cycle.
So in the election cycle, USAID staff made a total of $406,000 in political contributions. More than half of that money went to Kamala Harris, and 97% of that spending went to Democrats in general. Only $999, not even a thousand. 9 hundred and 90 9 dollars was spent on President Donald Trump and Republicans. Okay? This anti Trump attitude has then been exemplified by staff to people in power, like Elon Musk, like secretary of state Marco Rubio, like I mentioned.
They're in the process of auditing the spending of the agency, and members employees of the agency are reportedly refusing to answer basic questions like, what is this program from? Who gets this money? Very simple questions that someone that works at this agency should have no problem answering. Now, either way, it's either the employees don't know the answers to these questions, which is concerning, or they don't wanna be compliant, which is also concerning. So very interesting.
Now I don't know if I I don't think the USAID or I'm not entirely set on whether the USAID deserves a total abolition. I believe that about the Department of Education. Peace. See you. That's fine. Now USAIDAs see some merit in it, but it it does deserve, whether it's abolished or not, it deserves an insane downsizing and more rigorous standards being implemented across the board of how we're giving that aid. Right? It's sometimes necessary, most of the time not.
And so I'd like to see a massive crackdown if we are not going to get an abolition. Anyway, let's move on to our next story. Donald Trump. This is not underreported at all. You have heard this, I would hope by now, that he signed an executive order last week protecting children from irreversible gender procedures, and hospitals have already started canceling appointments or, in some cases, getting rid of their gender programs and gender centers for children altogether.
In New York, NYU, Lagoon Health has canceled appointments for children, including two 12 year olds who are slated to start puberty blockers, again, medication that can have irreversible impacts on a child's development. In Colorado, a spokesperson for Denver Health told NBC that had stopped performing these surgeries on children and young people 19.
In Virginia, both VCU Health and the Children's Hospital of Richmond confirmed to NBC that they've halted their medication and surgeries on children and people 19. UVA Health in Charlottesville has suspended all so called, gender affirming care while it reviews its guidelines. But I wanna take note of NYU Langone Health because there is one state that is threatening hospitals who do comply with the federal government, which is kind of ass backwards.
But New York attorney general Leticia James, this is the same woman who vowed to prosecute Donald Trump for charges she was gonna find out of nowhere. Anyway, she is telling hospitals and including NYU Langone Health to continue these gender procedures for minors despite this executive order. She said in a letter to New York health care facilities across the state, regardless of the ability of federal funding because again, this isn't an outlying of these surgeries or, any care.
It's the outlying of or the availability of the federal funding. So hospitals that engage in these will not get federal funding. Period. End of sentence.
So the letter reads, regardless of the availability of federal funding, we write to further remind you of your obligations to comply with New York state law, including those that prohibit discrimination against individuals based on their membership in a protected class, such as sex, gender identity, expression, sexual orientation, race, creed, color, you know the whole thing. Right?
Electing to refuse services to a class of individuals based on their protected status, such as withholding the ability of services from trans individuals based on their gender identity or their diagnosis of gender dysphoria, while offering such services to cisgender individuals discrimination under New York law. Now, here's where I'm I'm just totally open to hearing more about this from a doctor.
There's no care that's provided to cisgender people that wouldn't be allowed or provided to any other person based on any of those orientations. Right? It's simply that you're not going to get care, quote, unquote, care that is elective. Right? No one is allowed to get this care anymore, really. It's not like cisgender people are getting this or I don't wanna say something that's gonna trigger the YouTube algorithm. So I'm saying it, but I'm rolling my eyes. Right?
Other people are now going to have the same access to health care that we all have. Like, nothing changes about health care. The argument you have to get really deluded into the argument of it to understand that these people genuinely believe that if we don't shoot minors up with gender affirming hormones, that these kids are gonna have a problem. Now studies don't really show that.
They show that the mental health of children stays about the same, if not declines, when they get on these medications. So they don't actually have data or studies to back that up. The only studies they have are studies done by the pharmaceutical industry, paid for by the pharmaceutical industry, and propped up by the pharmaceutical industry. So not real rigorous studies by any stretch of the means. So I'm very interested to see how a judge is going to look at that.
And a judge will look at this, by the way. Today, families and doctors have announced lawsuits against the executive order. It's been put together, this lawsuit, by a bunch of LGBT organizations like PFLAG, the ACLU, as well as one mother and the face of this lawsuit. She's kind of or sorry. She is the face of this lawsuit already. Her name is Kristen Chapman. And her story is that she moved her kid from Tennessee.
You know, Tennessee very famously outlawed these gender transition surgeries and whatnot. She moved her kid from Tennessee to Virginia to get this alleged treatment. And the day that the executive order went into place, the hospital said it would have performed the care. And it was like the day after the executive order went in, the kid was going to get this alleged quote care.
So to be clear, technically, I like I said, hospitals can still perform these surgeries and distribute p puberty blockers. It's not illegal. These hospitals are just not getting the funding. So what we need to see here is whether a judge issues a temporary pause on the executive orders, which again, would just continue money flowing to these hospitals. It doesn't really change anything while this goes to the court. Now this court or this lawsuit is filed in Baltimore.
So this is completely my judgment call here. My biases, I'm gonna assume that the judge is gonna side with the ACLU and that this executive order is gonna be put on pause until this lawsuit goes through. But, again, it's very unclear what grounds they're suing on. Are they suing on the grounds of they don't have like, transgender minors don't have access to regular health care? Because they do. And they don't really have much data on their side to prove that this is necessary health care.
So I'm interested to see how it plays out in the court. I'll keep you updated on it like I always do. Anyway, let's get on to our next story, which is that two employees at DCA, which is the DC airport, were arrested for allegedly leaking a video of American Eagle flight five three four two colliding with the US Army Blackhawk. This, obviously, very sadly, resulted in the loss huge loss of life. 67 people killed in the incident and two individuals. Oh, sorry. My camera went out for a second.
That was really weird. Sorry. I was saying, there are two individuals that were charged here. Mohammed Lamine Embenguay, I think. 21 years old, young black man. And Jonathan Savoy, who is a 45 year old man, they are facing charges of computer trespassing and making unauthorized copies of the plane crash recording and then leaking that footage to CNN. Now, part of me agrees with these arrests because it's like, I get it.
We have systems in place to ensure that the footage is safe and secure, and you don't want employees leaking footage without authorization. I get it. I get it. I'm a rule follower. But at the same time, if this footage wasn't released when it was, the information overload and conspiracy theories, like, not fun conspiracy, genuine conspiracy theories that would have come from this would have been too insane to tamper down.
This video getting leaked gave us a clear picture of what happened from the get go, and we could deduce what had happened or at least get a semblance of what had happened within an hour or two of that plane crash, it it's the Internet and news working the way we would ideally want it to. Now, obviously, there's still investigation, still lots of lingering question about what's going on. I'll be honest.
When I first saw this news, first of all, I, like, was freaking out because I had to get on an American Airlines flight the next morning, but this is not about me. This is sorry. It's just true. That was my first thought. Freaking out. I don't wanna get on a plane tomorrow. Next, when I first saw it, I just, like, kind of assumed it was a Republican senator that was on board because we had these huge controversial hearings.
We had Tulsi Gabbard hearing, RFK hearings, which are literally razor thin. Successful so far, kinda, but razor thin right now. And so it was like, oh, well, I mean, like, on a subcommittee of, you know, I believe it's 25 people, if one Republican's out, these nominees are done for. So I was like, okay. Well, who's on the plane? That was the first thing I wanted to know. Also, no, side don't. I just watched that new Jason Bateman movie.
It's called Carry On. It's like they're try I could see what they were doing. They were trying to do, like, a die hard kinda Christmas movie thing. But, basically, it's about a Russian hit group trying to take out a US Representative. So very top of mind for me. But anyway, that's where I am on this story. I understand the arrest, but I'm really thankful for the footage. I know that doesn't fit into, like, a neat little box ideologically, But I guess that's the whole point of the show. Right?

It's all good stuff. You like this show? You'll love the newsletter. Anyway, let's get to our next story. Whoo. This one feels good. The infamous grifter, Ibram X. Kendi, is getting kinda canceled. So in 2020, Boston University announced a Center for Anti Racist Research that was founded by a man named Ibram X. Kendi. He became this very controversial figure. He calls literally everything racist without even being able to define racism or debate people about his ideas.
He refuses to debate anybody, kind of pathetic. But Boston University announced it's shutting down this Grift Center. Kennedy Center basically had this five year contract with Boston University, and it expires on June thirtieth of twenty twenty five. And that's kinda like the end of that. This didn't come out of nowhere, though. Obviously, I think it's very obvious. We're seeing a big cultural shift away from this kind of insanity.
But, also, the center was a money pit, and they got nothing out of it. The whole thing was marred by allegations of financial corruption. Back in '23, the $50,000,000 endowment for the center had essentially dried up, and then the center had to cut a third of its workforce. So just nutty stuff happening around, and there's really not much to show for it. Kendi, Ibram Kendi, he's now headed over to Howard University, which is an HBCU in DC, where I'm just gonna assume he's gonna grift more.
Gonna siphon off more money and do literally nothing to benefit the students, to benefit the university, to benefit research, to benefit this country at all. I don't know why anybody would hire him, unless, no. I don't I'm I can't think of a reason. I'm not gonna be nice here. I have no idea why the hell anybody would hire this guy after he just blew $50,000,000 and got nothing from it. He's clearly exposed himself as a grifter.
But seeing the university shut this down gives me hope that universities are waking up to griffs in 2020. But my problem is, like, great. Five years after the fact, you shut this down too little too late. I hope we learn from our mistakes, but I don't think we're going to. I wish people would get more vigilant about jumping on emotion driven trends like BLM and stuff like that. But we're like, these institutions are not like that.
They are so reactive instead of driven by morals and goals and missions. It's laughable. It really makes you put you puts into perspective this idea. You know, you show up to orientation when you go to college and they have, like, little mission driven statements and stuff like that. You don't stick to your mission, dumbass. The second that BLM comes running around, all of a sudden, every university is like, I'll give you $50,000,000. I'll give you $50,000,000. Such weenies.
Truly weenie behavior, but maybe, maybe, just maybe, some universities learned a lesson from this grift. I'm doubtful though. Anyway, let's get to our fifth and final story. Now this story has an article attached to it linked below from The Daily Caller. It is a really intricate story. And like I said, linked below, I really think you should read it if you're interested, if this piques your interest at all.
But I'm gonna give you a broad overview just for the sake of details, keeping your interest and whatnot. Okay? So China, being China, is attempting to control the American justice system with nonprofits operating in the country that are directly linked to the CCP. So the CCP has nonprofits. These nonprofits register themselves in America, and then they act like nonprofits, except they don't.
Okay. So this story is taking place in four places, California, DC, and Suburban DC, so like Maryland, Virginia as well, Hawaii, and New York. Primarily, this is where this is all happening. So these nonprofits operate in these areas. And what they do is they share information about what's happening on US soil with Chinese law enforcement. What the hell?
So the Chinese government claims it has these nonprofits in this law enforcement on the ground in America to handle very mundane things like, okay, Chinese person's driver's license is about to expire. It needs to be renewed. That's what we're here for or international divorce courts or something like that. Very unclear why this can't all just be done by the embassy and we need like these little mini law enforcement agencies to do that.
But what they are actually doing according to this months long report from the Daily Caller is they're creating a mini legal system that's spying on and could potentially punish Chinese nationals who come to America and disagree with anything the Chinese government says. So any dissidents who come here for a better life, legally, of course, are kept under the watchful eye of the CCP, and we're just kind of letting it happen.
Now, why thought process is, okay, we all everybody has an issue, or not everybody, but a lot of people have an issue with TikTok putting out propaganda on the app to people. But we're, like, somehow just rolling our eyes and shrugging our shoulders about the fact that there's a full blown fucking CCP law enforcement operation happening here in America.
We're literally letting China run their own system of policing and law enforcement here in America, and they're doing it under the guise of nonprofits. No. No. Go spend your effort and time and energy shutting that shit down. Okay? We're not subsidizing the Chinese government's repressive dictatorship here in America. Okay? Stop worrying about TikTok. Stop start worrying about real shit. Cheese.
Now the other thing that came to my mind when I saw this was, like, whether we're talking about the border or these Chinese literally insane law enforcement operations uncovered or disguised as nonprofits is that our government in Doge really needs to take a look at these nonprofits and ensure that nonprofits are in fact operating as nonprofits.
You wouldn't believe how many of these nonprofits are working down at the border and profiting off of the human trafficking happening at our southern border. Now caveat, this can so easily be politicized. We saw that in the Obama era where the IRS was targeting nonprofits that are specifically Christian and conservative. I am not calling for that. I'm not calling for that of liberal groups at all.
I am calling for a standard that all nonprofits should meet and all nonprofits should be held to regardless of their political opinions and sways and whatnot. I just feel like it's the bare minimum. Right? Anyway, before we wrap up today's show, I actually have an update for you guys from a story about last week. So last week when I had Bradley on the show, which was Thursday's episode, we were chatting about a party I was at in DC for inauguration weekend that was featured in New York Magazine.
And the article basically whitewashed the party, making it appear as though the only people attended were or attending the party were, like, mean white people, when in fact, that was not the truth. The party was very racially diverse and really showcased Trump's new coalition of people from different racial and ethnic backgrounds, but corporate media obviously tried to lie through omission. So update on that.
My friend, CJ Pearson, who through the party, has obtained legal counsel and plans to sue the New York Magazine for painting all of us as racists, which is chef's kiss. Beautiful. Okay? I love this because, to me, this is just yet another indication that we as conservatives are not taking it laying down anymore. The media can't just paint us as racist through omission.
Like, this is on purpose done to make young impressionable people think poorly of us, and even details omitted or details not added by omission or whatever the standard is, that has gotta go away. Like, we just gotta start telling the truth about things and hold media to that standard. So I'm very excited about this. I will keep you guys updated.
I've asked CJ to come on the show, so hopefully, he can come on and explain more in a little bit of time once we understand the full scope of the lawsuit or, like, the legal filings against New York Magazine. Anyway, that's all I've got for you guys today. If you are a real one and you made it to the end of today's show, will you drop the hospital emoji so I know that you're part of the community? I will see you back here on Thursday for our final episode here in this studio.
