the show
09:40
this show is not like other shows well
09:42
actually it increasingly is
09:44
um in that uh we actually have a special
09:46
guest
09:48
we do have a special guest uh straight
09:50
from
09:51
chattanooga tennessee which is a
09:54
wonderful uh city with a wonderful
09:57
aquarium
09:58
ladies and gentlemen rachel torrance
10:02
hey guys hey rachel thanks so much for
10:06
coming on
10:07
you are glad you’re here we now you are
10:10
running
10:10
for uh the correct me if we’re wrong
10:14
the district 3 city council race in
10:17
chattanooga tennessee is that that’s
10:18
correct right
10:20
that’s correct well before we get to
10:22
that let’s start with whenever we have a
10:24
libertarian on the show for the first
10:25
time we always ask this
10:27
what is it that got you into
10:28
libertarianism in the libertarian party
10:31
was it
10:31
like an aha moment or was there a
10:34
gradual evolution over time what what
10:36
we all every libertarian has their
10:38
genesis story
10:40
tell us the the rachel torrance story
10:44
so interestingly enough i actually voted
10:47
for gary johnson in 2016
10:50
and didn’t know anything about
10:51
libertarianism at that point
10:53
um the same thing happened in 2020 and i
10:57
was like who am i going to vote for
11:00
i actually decided at one point i was
11:02
going to write in dolly parton because i
11:04
was just
11:05
so over the options that we had
11:08
someone introduced me to joe jorgensen
11:10
and i started listening to
11:13
what she had to say and what spike had
11:15
to say spike is actually
11:17
my ron paul um so i started listening
11:21
to um whenever you started talking about
11:23
things about
11:25
going into colleges and knocking on
11:27
doors that really just
11:29
opened up my eyes and started
11:31
volunteering in june
11:32
and i’m a baby libertarian so here i am
11:37
so you’re going from baby welcome to
11:39
automatically
11:40
running for city council i love it yeah
11:44
i respect that so much i love
11:47
this i’m a libertarian now i’m taking
11:49
over this city
11:50
and i’m starting with district three of
11:52
chattanooga let’s go
11:54
now rachel this speaks to my power
11:58
that you that not only did i excite you
12:00
about libertarianism but you went
12:02
straight from
12:04
i’m not sure what i think to i want to
12:06
run for office as a libertarian now i
12:07
don’t want to take
12:08
a hundred percent of the credit because
12:10
i presume that you’ve done some leg work
12:12
in running for office but is it fair to
12:14
say i could take
12:16
at least 15 of the credit
12:21
you are the power
12:25
i love it at least 15 of the credits
12:28
at least 15 like a minimum i’m not
12:29
saying it’s like 40.
12:31
i’m saying at least 15 maybe even like
12:34
20 to 25
12:35
the numbers don’t matter
12:37
[Music]
12:38
[Laughter]
12:39
so okay talk to us about so you live in
12:42
chattanooga
12:43
and what is it that you saw
12:49
about asking a question at the same time
12:52
i was just saying chattanooga great town
12:54
i used to live in uh
12:55
nashville and we would do weekends in
12:57
chattanooga great town a lot of fun
13:00
so you uh you’re running for this office
13:03
what was it that you saw that me besides
13:06
me
13:07
after seeing me and being so inspired to
13:10
now live your life
13:11
in its purpose which i have given you
13:14
after that
13:15
what what was it that drove you to say
13:18
that drove you to say
13:20
i’m sorry what is it that drove you to
13:22
say uh
13:23
that you know well i should be running
13:25
for this off
13:26
what is it that you saw in chattanooga
13:28
that said that made you say you know i
13:29
want to vote to be the change in
13:31
chattanooga
13:32
i want to run for office to make that
13:34
change we um
13:35
there was our our incumbent
13:38
was running uncontested and so my party
13:42
my local party just was like hey why
13:44
don’t you jump in
13:46
and i just kind of looked at them and
13:48
laughed like
13:49
no no no not that not this shy girl this
13:52
shy girl is not going to run for office
13:54
no way no uh
13:56
and so i really just started to think
13:57
about it a little bit deeper and i said
14:00
you know there’s not
14:01
i mean it’s it’s a risk i can take but
14:04
it’s not really going to
14:06
hurt me if i actually try um
14:09
so yeah risk-taking i saw that
14:14
what i had to lose was to be
14:17
to lose so um i was like okay
14:20
there’s only one person our district is
14:23
about 18 000 people
14:25
that are registered to vote and only
14:28
about 2 000 of those actually
14:30
vote in these in these local elections
14:32
so that’s one thing
14:35
and it’s it was really
14:39
stepping out of my comfort zone and i
14:41
was okay with that
14:42
well that’s awesome that’s awesome no
14:44
that’s
14:46
that’s that’s abs go ahead
14:49
that yeah i was gonna say that that’s
14:50
that’s absolutely amazing now
14:52
um it’s been a while since i’ve lived in
14:55
tennessee and
14:56
obviously never like i’ve never lived in
14:58
chattanooga
14:59
but what what are you aiming to achieve
15:01
in chatham
15:02
what are what are some of the issues
15:03
going on in chattanooga right now that
15:04
you are looking to
15:06
turn around so the biggest thing i want
15:09
to do is to roll back some of those
15:11
restrictions that we’ve put on
15:12
businesses
15:13
and let them actually thrive i mean we
15:15
had
15:16
walmart and lowe’s all the big the big
15:19
box stores were thriving while our mom
15:21
and pop stores were
15:22
kind of on edge so rolling back some of
15:26
those restrictions and going after some
15:28
of the harmful
15:30
the harmful um regulations that we have
15:34
on our people so it’s really our people
15:38
is
15:38
the biggest focus for me right now and
15:41
we
15:42
we have an awesome city and it just
15:43
needs to be it just needs to be
15:46
shown liberty that’s awesome
15:49
that’s awesome now i saw on your website
15:51
uh earlier today
15:53
that one of the things that you are
15:55
actually working on is getting rid of
15:56
the mask mandate
15:58
yeah um and i be i am all for getting
16:02
rid of mask mandates
16:04
um 100 not a fan of them if you want to
16:06
wear masks do it if not
16:08
um how big of a hurdle do you think
16:10
that’s going to be
16:11
to do like how how entrenched is it in
16:14
chattanooga right now
16:16
well right now we have our mask mandate
16:18
that was extended through
16:19
march 31st um the biggest thing is that
16:23
we have people that feel like if you
16:26
don’t wear a mask that you don’t care
16:27
about people
16:28
and there are people that are you have
16:31
to wear a mask um
16:32
so those are it’s it’s really getting
16:34
rid of that binary
16:36
i don’t care about people because i
16:38
choose to
16:39
allow someone not to wear a mask i mean
16:42
it’s
16:43
that’s that’s not the case at all it’s
16:45
the virus is very real and we have to
16:47
focus on
16:49
the virus instead of oh that person’s
16:52
wearing a mask and that person’s not
16:53
they don’t care about you
16:55
right right right right let be let
16:57
people be free to make their own
16:59
their own choices and and all of that so
17:02
you’ve
17:02
you have an incredible team around you
17:05
some of my favorite people in texas
17:07
who like you i’ll be seeing uh this
17:09
weekend uh in
17:10
at the libertarian party convention uh
17:12
libertarian party of tennessee
17:14
convention in uh in lebanon
17:16
uh on saturday and this coming saturday
17:18
and sunday what is
17:19
you know tell us about some of the
17:21
people on your team and uh and how
17:23
they’ve been helpful in this because
17:24
one thing i’ve learned in doing my show
17:26
culture winning and talking to
17:27
libertarians who have won
17:29
similar races across the country is that
17:32
they are only as strong as the team and
17:34
the people that are behind them tell us
17:35
a little bit about your team
17:37
so i’ve got some awesome people on my
17:40
team um
17:41
i’ve got ryan jenkins um
17:44
he is actually 13 and does his
17:48
own podcast um he knows more about
17:51
politics than anybody that i know
17:53
um i also have angela pence who
17:57
has been who has phenomenal
18:01
um planning strategies and
18:04
i think even even through some of your
18:07
events spike

she was there for at least three of them
18:10
and
18:12
i mean i’ve got i i’ve got the whole
18:15
hamilton county libertarian party
18:17
standing behind me
18:18
uh david tyler is awesome with some of
18:21
the
18:22
um the financials uh we’ve got an
18:25
excellent team here in tennessee
18:27
and even across tennessee i’ve got i’ve
18:30
got dave jones who has been
18:31
awesome promoting me um his
18:35
we’ve got keith mcqueary who’s let me
18:37
use his studio
18:39
this team is just awesome and it really
18:41
is about the people
18:43
this group of people has been
18:45
surrounding me
18:46
so much in the past year and growing me
18:50
so i really appreciate them yeah no
18:53
they’re they’re really really cool
18:54
people
18:55
and uh you you have like i said
18:58
your team can can a team can take you a
19:01
lot further
19:02
than any individual candidate themselves
19:03
can go it’s it’s you as the candidate
19:05
that does the inspiration of
19:06
and it speaks to you as a candidate for
19:08
that many people to be coming on
19:10
and being a solid part of your team but
19:11
it is that team that will propel you to
19:14
to to greatness so that’s that’s really
19:15
awesome
19:20
yeah um you know i’ve
19:23
you know grown like not growing up
19:25
living in tennessee for a good portion
19:26
of my adult life
19:28
um i am i
19:32
i am a huge fan of all things tennessee
19:35

26:49
shipping matt
26:50
thankfully well
26:54
it’s not really thankfully speaking of
26:56
free shipping
26:57
donald trump got a free shipping
27:01
to being able to run again
27:07
yes he did uh he survived his second
27:09
impeachment conviction
27:11
hearing uh with a vote of 57 to 43 to
27:15
convict which means that seven
27:17
republicans voted to convict and that
27:18
included richard richard burr of north
27:21
carolina bill cassidy of louisiana susan
27:23
collins of maine
27:24
lisa murkowski of alaska mitt romney of
27:27
utah ben sasse of nebraska and pat
27:29
toomey of pennsylvania two of those
27:33
surprised
27:34
yeah surprised me yeah
27:37
i was surprised by burr yeah
27:40
and cass well no actually well no i i
27:43
would say toomey but toomey’s actually
27:45
been pretty
27:46
anti-trump since the election so i i
27:48
think
27:49
burr and cassidy somewhat surprised
27:52
those were the two that kind of
27:54
yeah the the rest of them and maybe to
27:57
me even i i was
27:59
i fully expected now again as i noted on
28:02
kennedy
28:02
not name dropping or anything i go on
28:04
kennedy sometimes
28:07
as i mentioned there uh if the democrats
28:09
actually pick that up for you hang on
28:11
here yeah on kennedy
28:16
i uh i as i noted uh on kennedy
28:20
um the if the democrats in congress
28:22
really wanted to get rid of donald trump
28:24
they would uh pass the censure measure
28:26
that is in
28:27
uh invoking uh section three
28:31
of the 14th amendment uh which says that
28:34
anyone who
28:35
uh gave comfort to the enemy and that is
28:38
decided by congress just like the
28:40
impeachment
28:41
uh with high crimes and misdemeanors
28:42
they can decide what is giving comfort
28:44
to the enemy
28:45
makes them ineligible to run and the
28:47
only way that that can be overturned
28:49
is with a two-thirds vote that could be
28:51
passed
28:52
with a simple majority but it can only
28:54
be overturned with the two-thirds vote
28:56
and uh that would have rendered uh trump
28:59
uh
28:59
ineligible to run the fact that they
29:01
didn’t do that and that instead they
29:03
went through with this
29:04
knowing full well in fact that was a
29:06
high 57 was
29:07
much more than i honestly expected i
29:09
thought it would be 54 or 55.
29:12
so the fact that even that they still
29:14
didn’t come i mean they were
29:15
seven uh no ten
29:18
nine senators away from being able to
29:21
ten senators away from oh yeah 67.
29:24
that they were 10 senators away from
29:27
from being able to
29:28
convict trump and and and make him
29:31
ineligible again
29:32
they knew it wasn’t going to happen they
29:34
wanted to continue to create this divide
29:36
they wanted to make sure that he can run
29:38
again because they need him
29:40
as their boogie man for their endless
29:41
good caught bad cop routine
29:43
just like the republicans needed barack
29:45
obama and hillary clinton
29:47
and they’ll need joe biden for this next
29:49
one or kamala harris if joe biden
29:52
isn’t president anymore uh this you know
29:55
this is a you know this they need each
29:59
other because why the hell else would
30:00
you vote republican or democrat if it
30:02
wasn’t for
30:03
fear of the democrat or the republican
30:05
so um
30:06
it’s the theater we expected do you
30:08
think trump runs again
30:10
yes yeah you do yeah he he’s doing all
30:13
this stuff
30:14
it’s now if he doesn’t i’m not going to
30:16
be shocked
30:17
because he is an old he is he is an old
30:19
man and he may
30:21
find an heir apparent either an actual
30:23
heir or
30:24
you know just someone who’s gonna take
30:26
the trump america first
30:28
uh uh uh um mantle and run with it
30:32
uh but i i honestly see um
30:35
i honestly see i honestly
30:39
i honestly see trump uh what running
30:42
again he’s doing all the stuff you would
30:43
do if you were
30:44
going to run again almost we we uh
30:47
so i i do oh no not quite but we we
30:51
uh anyone listening to this is going to
30:52
be nine yeah anybody who’s listening on
30:54
anchor is going to be like what
30:56
what is what in the hell is going on
30:58
right now but no i i i do think
31:00
i do i think it’s like 65
31:03
that he runs again um yeah which is what
31:06
the democrats want
31:07
they are intentionally whipping him up
31:09
uh to run again
31:11
and uh and and run another biden
31:14
v trump race which democrats think that
31:17
the win
31:17
and republicans think will keep their
31:20
splintering base
31:21
in line to vote for him just to stop
31:23
biden and to and to you know vote for
31:26
her for
31:26
maggie nation or whatever so i i you
31:29
know i i think it’s going exactly how we
31:31
expected and speaking of going exactly
31:34
how we expected
31:36
andrew cuomo is basically murdering
31:38
people and
31:40
covering it up matt yeah uh
31:45
since march andrew cuomo has killed more
31:46
new yorkers than bin laden
31:48
um
31:55
in a s in a moment of tone deafness
32:00
tone deafness tone deafeness deftedness
32:04
tone definiteness i made that joke um
32:07
also
32:10
andrew cuomo’s secretary
32:13
melissa de rosa uh
32:17
i mean technically it’s not a joke
32:19
that’s why i wouldn’t i mean
32:20
it’s factual i mean it is an actual
32:23
thing he has
32:24
murdered more people more new yorkers
32:28
than bin laden did um
32:33
but uh she apologized to democratic
32:35
lawmakers for withholding the state’s
32:37
nursing home death toll from coven 19
32:39
because they feared that the real
32:40
numbers would be used against
32:42
them by federal prosecutors
32:46
which would have probably been true had
32:48
trump won
32:50
yeah well he so here’s the thing
32:53
she didn’t withhold it from us to public
32:56
which would be bad enough
32:57
she withheld it from they withheld it
32:59
from the federal government
33:02
they committed fraud
33:06
against the federal government you know
33:08
that thing where like if you
33:10
like write something wrong on your tax
33:12
statement or
33:13
you know on on your application for a
33:15
license
33:16
the stuff that they say can happen to
33:18
you imagine if one of the questions is
33:20
how many people died at your house
33:26
and you didn’t answer that one right if
33:28
you say 13
33:29
000 you’re going to prison forever
33:34
yeah especially if it turns out it’s way
33:36
more than that
33:38
so this came as a revelation
33:42
uh to some after uh cuomo’s mandate
33:45
early in the pandemic
33:46
uh that ill-equipped nursing homes had
33:48
to accept recovering covet patients
33:50
that were being discharged from
33:52
hospitals even though the elderly are
33:53
among
33:54
the most vulnerable exponentially more
33:56
vulnerable to the deadly disease you
33:58
know we talk about the fact that for
33:59
you know the overall public the fatality
34:02
rate is somewhere around one percent
34:04
it’s as high as maybe two percent it’s
34:06
as low as maybe point three or point six
34:08
percent
34:08
it’s kind of all over the place there
34:10
but it’s around one percent
34:12
when it’s nursing home residents you’re
34:14
in the double digits
34:15
it’s now like one out of every seven or
34:17
eight people who get it
34:19
are going to die because they are very
34:20
old and they have multiple comorbidities
34:23
including things like existing lung
34:25
problems and copd and
34:27
heart problems and you know recovering
34:30
from cancer
34:31
some of them are in essentially hospice
34:33
palliative care
34:34
like that this is they’re going to die
34:36
from it like the odds of them surviving
34:37
it are exponentially
34:39
worse than literally everyone else so
34:42
that’s where the government sent the
34:43
covet patients
34:46
yep and uh genius
34:49
when derosa was asked uh about why they
34:52
withheld it
34:53
she said uh they directed the department
34:55
of because
34:56
when they
35:00
hang on i stumbled all over that
35:03
sentence
35:04
uh when she asked why they did it she
35:07
said
35:07
trump directed the department of justice
35:09
to do an investigation on us
35:11
uh so they decided to cover up the more
35:13
than 13 000
35:14
13 thousand seniors who died from kovid
35:17
and why did they lie
35:20
because we weren’t sure if what we were
35:22
going to give to the department of
35:24
justice
35:25
or what we give to you guys and what we
35:27
start saying was going to be used
35:29
against us
35:30
and we weren’t sure if there was going
35:32
to be an investigation
35:36
she told the people who would do that
35:40
so you know how we talk about if you get
35:42
pulled over by the police
35:44
but okay so she she did not tell the
35:46
people that would do that
35:48
she told lawmakers this was these were
35:51
democratic lawmakers in the state of new
35:53
york
35:56
these were like these were federal
36:01
these were city council members and
36:02
state house and state senate state house
36:04
oh i don’t know what new york is
36:05
but the the state law the state
36:08
legislature
36:09
in but the democratic party
36:12
because later she
36:15
decided get ready to do the night later
36:18
she did it she
36:19
wanted to apologize for you know lying
36:21
but instead of
36:23
apologizing to you know the families
36:26
of the 13 000 this is what she said
36:28
instead
36:32
so we do apologize i do understand the
36:34
position that you were put in
36:36
i know that it is not fair it was not
36:38
our intention to put you in that
36:39
political position with the republicans
36:42
this was her apology we’re sorry that
36:45
this might have hurt you electorally
36:47
against the republican party
36:49
not we’re sorry that we
36:52
just broke federal law and
36:56
defrauded everyone involved
36:59
by hiding the fact that our
37:03
administration’s policies were directly
37:05
responsible for the deaths of
37:08
13 000 people
37:11
because let’s let’s talk let’s dive into
37:14
this briefly
37:14
do you remember when we were first told
37:16
for the longest time uh there’s a few
37:18
people here with covet but it’s really
37:20
not that bad here
37:21
do you remember that period like this
37:22
was in basically this time last year
37:24
so it was like from late january a year
37:27
ago
37:28
pretty much through february we were
37:30
told yeah there’s there’s one student in
37:32
boston
37:33
and there’s two people in california and
37:35
one person
37:36
in illinois it turned out it was
37:38
spreading wildly and there was no way to
37:40
track it
37:41
because the cdc and the fda weren’t
37:44
allowing
37:44
covid testing and so those few cases
37:47
that we knew about
37:48
were people that had either been
37:49
screened coming in uh or were tested
37:52
illegally and
37:53
the results were released to the public
37:55
um
37:56
as it was spreading out of control state
37:59
governments were taking
38:00
suspected covid patients that were
38:03
recovering
38:04
and shoving them in nursing homes the
38:07
nursing homes were saying
38:09
hey we don’t have the facilities in
38:12
place
38:12
the the protocols in place to protect
38:16
the most vulnerable people in this
38:18
country
38:19
from covid leave them
38:22
in in ers and emergency rooms where they
38:25
do have those kinds of protocols in
38:27
place where they actually can protect
38:28
the rest of the public because that’s
38:30
what they deal with constantly hospitals
38:32
that deal with things like sars and
38:33
things like that and
38:34
and and know how to have the the
38:36
toughest you know biohazard restrictions
38:38
in place to make sure that the virus
38:40
doesn’t
38:40
spread to everyone else and the states
38:42
washington and new york the chief among
38:44
them
38:45
said nah we’re putting them in there so
38:47
then in
38:48
about a roughly two week period of time
38:50
we went from yeah well there’s not
38:52
really a lot of people that have it here
38:53
i think we’re okay
38:54
to oh no a bunch of people have it and
38:57
the fatality rate is like
38:59
six percent the reason the fatality rate
39:02
was so high
39:03
was because they were only reporting the
39:05
cases in the nursing homes
39:07
and the deaths were high as a result of
39:09
that
39:10
that’s what led to all the panic that
39:12
were still suffering from
39:14
now that created these lockdowns that
39:16
created
39:17
all of this this counter-intuitive
39:18
garbage that has done
39:20
nothing to effectively slow the spread
39:22
of the virus long-term
39:23
all of that happened because of that
39:25
weird panic period
39:27
in in the beginning of march first two
39:28
or three weeks of march where we went
39:30
very quickly from
39:31
uh there’s really a few people that have
39:33
it here but we’d have to stay vigilant
39:35
too
39:35
it’s everywhere and people are dying and
39:38
the fatality rate is as high as it is in
39:40
any
39:40
in any uh in any developed country
39:44
absent all of that bad government policy
39:46
at the federal and state level we
39:48
wouldn’t have had that panic
39:51
it’s almost like they did it for that
39:52
reason or they’re just idiots
39:55
but they also covered it up which tends
39:57
to lend itself towards them meaning this
40:03
or being idiots yeah no it could be the
40:05
unknown yeah i was gonna say
40:07
like in all honesty that’s a coin flip
40:10
i’m not sure which one it is
40:12
it could definitely be either one of
40:13
those two things
40:15
it’s cer it’s certainly not stopping i
40:17
mean they just could be
40:19
they could just be purely idiotic and
40:21
evil together
40:24
like a weird like a special combination
40:26
of of of stupid and evil
40:28
and and the thing is right they are even
40:31
if it’s because of stupidity and
40:33
and ineptitude they certainly haven’t uh
40:36
had any problems seizing on the panic
40:38
they’ve created to
40:40
you know to justify even more control
40:42
which they clearly used so amazingly
40:44
with the control that they already had
40:46
um so yeah but this is an absolute
40:51
there’s no apology for the 13 000 dead
40:53
because of their decisions
40:55
there’s a an apology to democrat
40:57
lawmakers
40:59
because it might hurt them in elections
41:02
who here you know you can put in the
41:04
comments folks
41:05
how uh you know what what are the odds
41:08
uh
41:08
that this is gonna lead to you know a
41:11
massive investigation
41:13
and uh and an arrest who who here wants
41:15
to you know
41:17
make put put it this way if if uh if you
41:20
uh think i i heard i heard
41:24
i so i don’t know how true this is
41:26
because this was second hand but i heard
41:29
that the department of justice was
41:31
looking into it but then they dropped it
41:33
shortly after this
41:35
you weren’t supposed to say that yet if
41:38
you think don’t listen to matt
41:40
you might
41:44
this might happen and if you think it
41:46
would happen
41:48
then we’ve got a great deal for you and
41:51
i don’t know if this is legal
41:52
but do it anyway well you could uh
41:55
if you think that andrew cuomo is going
41:59
to be criminally prosecuted
42:01
for this obvious crime of fraud and
42:05
kind of murder sort of uh then go mass
42:08
murder
42:09
uh then donate uh money you can bet
42:13
money
42:13
on by sending it to money waters media
42:17
gmail.com and if
42:20
andrew cuomo and you can just say this
42:23
is a bet
42:25
for that andrew cuomo will be indicted
42:27
we are not taking bets for him not being
42:30
indicted only for being indicted
42:33
and if he is indicted
42:36
and prosecuted we will give you double
42:40
your money back
42:42
that’s right so just
42:46
i know i know there’s some people
42:48
feeling optimistic
42:52
but i don’t even remember what the last
42:54
bet
42:55
was didn’t happen
42:58
it was equally not going to happen what
43:02
but we have oh if you just want to
43:03
donate so sean sean uh
43:05
uh write your ass what if they just want
43:07
to donate uh then you can donate to
43:09
money waters media gmail.com on paypal
43:13
or on anchor you can go on anchor or you
43:16
can go on float and give us some of that
43:17
crypto you’ve been hotlin
43:23
so speaking of making a donation
43:27
to oh gosh
43:31
speaking of a worthy
43:36
speaking of a worthy cause that
43:38
apparently isn’t it that isn’t going to
43:40
happen
43:43
a couple of weeks ago when joe soloski
43:45
was on our show
43:47
we we praised collectively the way that
43:50
uh south dakota governor christie noem
43:53
handled
43:54
covet 19 in her state did a fantastic
43:56
job credit where it’s due
43:59
in that same vein
44:02
we have to take our shots at somebody
44:04
when they deserve it
44:06
so after
44:09
turning to the course to stop voters
44:11
from legalizing recreational marijuana
44:13
in south dakota
44:15
governor christie gnome says she will
44:17
also veto
44:18
any attempt by lawmakers to give voters
44:22
what they’ve demanded
44:23
in both a uh constitutional vote in
44:27
their state
44:28
as well as what they’ve told all of the
44:30
people
44:31
in their capital that they want so
44:35
basically what happened was there was a
44:36
ballot initiative uh
44:38
for 2020 that was approved by 54 percent
44:40
of voters
44:42
to legalize marijuana
44:46
a she her administration
44:50
sued said that it was unconstitutional
44:53
she got a judge uh to uh to rule it out
44:57
to rule it unconstitutional
44:58
and throw it out now she’s saying if
45:00
lawmakers
45:01
uh try to do a similar thing that she’ll
45:04
veto it
45:04
which means they’ll have to have v veto
45:06
proof uh
45:08
legislate they’ll have to have a veto
45:09
proof uh uh margin to be able to
45:11
overturn her veto which is probably not
45:13
gonna happen
45:14
um she also in addition to that
45:18
she uh she uh also is is pushing to try
45:21
to indefinitely delay
45:23
their medical marijuana program that’s
45:26
already been approved
45:27
she’s she’s a drug warrior she’s bought
45:29
into the hype
45:30
about you know oh weeds the devil’s
45:32
lettuce and it’s gonna kill you
45:35
and uh and it’s you know it’s gonna yeah
45:37
you know you’re gonna
45:38
get on worse drugs by starting with weed
45:40
or whatever and
45:42
um you know
45:46
this the woman who we have been praising
45:48
for saying that she
45:49
trusts the voters of her state the
45:51
people of her state
45:53
uh to make uh smart decisions for
45:55
themselves
45:56
when it comes to their health is now
45:59
saying no not so much
46:00
not she trusts them when it comes to a
46:02
pandemic but not whether or not they’re
46:04
allowed to put
46:05
a plant in to consume a plant smoke it
46:08
or eat it or
46:09
or consume it in some other way
46:12
that’s right now a couple of uh
46:15
a couple of stats from uh south dakota
46:18
um from 2009 to 2018
46:22
31 883 people were arrested for
46:25
marijuana in south dakota 95
46:28
of them for possession offenses uh in
46:31
2018
46:32
roughly one out of every 10 arrests in
46:34
south dakota was for marijuana
46:37
um from 2007 to 2000. wait one out of
46:40
every 10 arrests
46:41
of wait one out of every 10 arrests for
46:44
anything
46:45
in south dakota
46:51
sorry go ahead i mean jeez go ahead
46:57
uh marijuana arrest in south dakota
46:59
increased by 166 percent from
47:02
150 600 in 2007 to 4218
47:08
in 2018. gosh
47:12
now we all know the reason why that
47:14
happens
47:16
and it’s uh called fundraising
47:20
on average the arrest rates for native
47:22
americans and black south dakotans has
47:24
been over five times higher than for
47:26
whites for the 10-year period from 2007
47:28
to 2018
47:30
2007 to 2018 yep and even though we know
47:33
like
47:34
i don’t know specifically for south
47:35
dakota but nationwide we know that
47:38
uh the uh we know that usage
47:41
rates of of marijuana are roughly equal
47:44
between different races there are some
47:46
slight uh uh
47:47
increases and decreases from from racial
47:50
demographic to racial demographic but a
47:52
lot of those are actually more tied to
47:54
uh rural versus suburban versus urban
47:57
living
47:58
uh and also poverty levels uh south
48:00
dakota is almost entirely
48:02
rural uh meaning that they’re probably
48:04
very similar there would be no reason
48:06
other than
48:08
the reasons for all of the different
48:09
race uh racial discrepancies and arrest
48:12
rates uh that it would be
48:13
500 percent higher
48:18
um 98 percent of marijuana violations in
48:22
south dakota from 2007 to 2016 were
48:25
standalone offenses meaning the
48:27
individual was not charged with any
48:28
other crime
48:30
in addition 99.1 percent of marijuana
48:33
arrests
48:36
ended with no weapons being seized by
48:39
the police
48:42
and based on the percentage of arrests
48:45
made for marijuana compared to the
48:46
overall law enforcement costs for south
48:48
dakota
48:48
the report estimates that each marijuana
48:51
arrest cost the state approximately
48:53
four thousand dollars
48:57
so this cost eight million dollars
49:02
roughly eight million dollars per year
49:04
or going up to eight million dollars per
49:06
year
49:07
to put people not to mention the
49:08
opportunity cost of losing people that
49:11
otherwise could be
49:12
earning an income and and you know
49:14
generating uh you know money for the
49:16
economy and
49:17
paying tax revenues and all that stuff
49:19
just the cost of of of putting them in
49:21
jail and and prosecuting them and
49:23
everything else
49:24
four thousand dollars per you’re
49:26
spending eight million dollars a year in
49:27
a very small state
49:29
to stop people from competing for big
49:32
pharma for things like pain management
49:35
and uh and even just recreational use uh
49:38
it’s
49:38
absurd um this is exactly
49:41
you know when people talk about oh well
49:44
you know the republicans are
49:45
closer to libertarian on some issues
49:48
yeah
49:48
sure on taxes sort of maybe
49:51
on spending not anymore
49:55
yeah i was going to say on taxes it
49:57
depends because when it comes to
49:58
spending republicans
49:59
they will quickly jump out in support of
50:02
law enforcement military we need to make
50:06
sure
50:06
that they are the first to go with the
50:08
rhodes argument
50:11
you drive on the roads you need the
50:13
roads how else are you gonna who’s gonna
50:14
build the roads as though
50:15
you know there weren’t roads before the
50:17
income tax um
50:20
but republicans are quick to go
50:24
there so as as times per
50:27
like since i’ve become a libertarian
50:29
republicans are less and less
50:31
like libertarians
50:35
yeah yeah and it’s and it’s it’s it’s
50:37
the case with democrats as well you know
50:39
we get people saying well the democrats
50:40
agree with you on the war on drugs
50:42
and immigration and the wars and like
50:44
not always and
50:45
then there’s all that other stuff that
50:47
they disagree with us on you know the
50:48
reality is
50:49
broken clocks are right as often as
50:52
twice a day well
50:53
it should be at least twice a day um
50:55
that’s really what we have with
50:57
republicans democrats they are broken
50:58
clocks that are occasionally right
51:00
but most the vast majority of the time
51:02
they are absolutely wrong
51:04
and uh and this is another example of it
51:06
i mean she literally said
51:07
the reason why we’re not going to
51:08
implement these lockdowns and mass
51:10
mandates and everything else
51:12
is because i can trust the people of my
51:14
state but not
51:15
with a plan so now thankfully
51:18
but not with we but here’s
51:22
we you know you want to talk about trust
51:25
we
51:25
trust you so much that we have a segment
51:29

album so you have spike cohen’s mixtape
57:27
next to the wu-tang album so it was
57:30
actually
57:31
seized by the feds um
57:34
right so the government so it’s really
57:36
their fault
57:38
the federal government will probably
57:40
never release it because
57:42
uh they don’t want to deal with the fire
57:46
that they’ll spread because it’s fire
57:49
no uh what’s a clue about my mixtape
57:59
it’s called spike cohen mixtape
58:03
like there have been all these deep
58:05
dives that people have been doing
58:06
about like maybe it’s after
58:09
jeremy cohen or maybe it’s
58:13
uh what were some of the other ones
58:15
maybe it was his porn name which i never
58:17
did porn but
58:19
if i had did a poor name it wouldn’t be
58:20
under my porn name i i
58:22
it’s just it’s called spike cohen
58:24
mixtape you’re not going to find
58:26
i will eventually have to release it
58:29
because i still have a copy of it i
58:31
still have like the files and everything
58:33
but you’re not it’s not
58:39
they’re not going to find i mean good
58:40
luck it’s i guess it’s not impossible
58:42
that you find it but it’s
58:45
you’re not going to find it um but so
58:47
yeah no so
58:48
in looking to help narrow it down
58:51
it’s just called spike mixtape so
58:54
hopefully that helps
58:55
um here is the next question from
58:58
adam hey matt and guy alright
59:02
this is adam from missouri calling in on
59:04
the chris reynolds personal injury
59:07
attorney chris reynolds attorney at law
59:08
anchor colin moment
59:10
and my question for you is a bit of a
59:13
complex one
59:14
one of the biggest issues i’ve noticed
59:18
with the with libertarians in general is
59:21
um being able to converse about
59:23
controversial topics
59:25
i’ve noticed they tend to devolve into
59:27
very unproductive arguments where
59:29
everyone leaves angry
59:32
my question is what would you recommend
59:35
people do
59:35
to help improve themselves
59:39
on this issue and how would you
59:42
recommend
59:43
people try to help others
59:46
improve on this issue thank you and have
59:49
a
59:50
great day that’s a really good question
59:53
do you have any thoughts on this i i
59:54
obviously have some thoughts on this but
59:56
what
59:58
right um then
60:01
for anybody who uh knows me
60:04
knows that i’m really not the right
60:06
person to answer this question
60:08
um but
60:14
uh honestly how people can
60:17
when people are debating especially when
60:19
they’re debating other libertarians
60:21
um we’ve talked about this a couple of
60:23
times on the show and a lot of it comes
60:25
down to
60:26
uh definitions and communication um yeah
60:29
so what you have to understand i mean
60:33
there are certain things i don’t
60:35
definitions it doesn’t really matter
60:37
what your definitions are aoc is a liar
60:39
um but no matter
60:44
but no but like no matter what when
60:46
you’re coming down to certain
60:47
definitions like capitalism is a big one
60:50
capitalism is a big one between the
60:52
right libertarians and left libertarians
60:54
um you have to come
60:57
from a point of sa being able to say
61:00
what if i’m wrong
61:02
what if the way that i have been
61:04
defining this word
61:06
is wrong
61:09
instead of going in uh bombastically
61:13
full full-fledged thinking i am right
61:15
about every single thing here
61:17
you have to be able to take a step back
61:20
and say
61:20
what if i’m wrong about one thing here
61:23
because that will open it up where you
61:25
are able to
61:26
learn and where you are going to be able
61:28
to be a better listener
61:30
in those situations yeah what if i’m
61:33
wrong or even what if i’m right
61:35
and we’re just using two different sets
61:38
of definite that’s a big one in the
61:40
libertarian world
61:41
like uh right but that’s why i said
61:44
what if i’m wrong about this definition
61:46
oh oh about the definition yeah
61:48
what if i’m wrong about my my actual
61:50
beliefs i might actually
61:52
learn something in this conversation and
61:54
also what if i’m
61:55
wrong in what what i’m applying i rarely
61:58
say the word capitalism anymore and
61:59
here’s why
62:00
capitalism is a term that was coined by
62:02
marxist to describe the system that we
62:04
have right now
62:05
libertarian capitalists and and
62:07
laissez-faire you know people
62:09
decided to rebrand the term as what we
62:12
described which is a free market system
62:14
that doesn’t exist
62:16
so if it was defined by marxists
62:20
the thing we describe it as doesn’t
62:21
exist but what does exist
62:23
is the thing that was defined by
62:25
marxists which they call capitalism and
62:28
which is generally understood by most
62:30
people to be
62:30
capitalism i’m not saying you can’t say
62:32
you support free market capitalism i
62:34
still consider myself an
62:35
interco-capitalist
62:37
it just means that for most people
62:38
that’s not what it means to them so if
62:40
someone comes to you and says
62:41
capitalism’s the problem
62:42
i guarantee you that they’re not saying
62:45
that what you want to have
62:47
is the problem so if you’re already
62:48
going to start arguing with them by
62:50
going
62:50
we don’t have capitalism you’re not a
62:52
lot different than the people who say
62:54
that wasn’t real communism no it wasn’t
62:57
real
62:57
communism because real communism is a
63:00
pipe dream
63:01
real communism is the idea that after
63:03
the implementation of a state of the
63:05
proletariat that it will eventually
63:06
devolve
63:07
into it will eventually or evolve and
63:10
and and and break down
63:11
into a stateless society with no
63:14
hierarchies
63:15
anarchy that’s what they call real
63:17
communism but they often
63:19
get stuck with having to defend actual
63:21
communism that actually happened
63:23
and they go out with some real communism
63:25
and we go it wasn’t real communism huh
63:27
and then someone says yeah this
63:28
capitalism sucks we well that’s
63:29
not real capitalism we’re doing the same
63:31
thing like we don’t have to be married
63:33
to our definitions
63:34
and and you know so that’s that’s a big
63:36
part of it and then i guess one final
63:38
thing
63:38
is just we so
63:42
no go ahead i was gonna say so what
63:45
what a lot of people on the right or
63:48
sorry would a lot of people on the left
63:49
consider capitalism
63:52
a lot of people who consider themselves
63:53
capitalists we call it you know crony
63:55
corporatism or corporatism or
63:58
crony capitalism cronyism like we we
64:00
throw in the crony on top of it
64:03
to be like no that’s different that’s
64:04
not that’s not what we’re about that
64:06
that’s cronyism that’s crony capitalism
64:08
that’s you know
64:09
whatever um and by throwing on that
64:13
extra we think that we’re
64:14
differentiating where the people
64:15
on the opposite side especially the left
64:18
libertarians they don’t see that they’re
64:19
like capitalism as capitalism
64:21
because that’s what’s going to happen
64:24
yeah
64:24
and that’s that’s exactly it and and you
64:26
know we
64:28
we would do well to speak to people
64:31
about definitions
64:32
to find out that we often agree in
64:35
principle on the terms now
64:36
uh justice mitchell uh in the comments
64:38
says anarchy is a means to an end for
64:40
marxist not the end
64:41
actually no for for straight up not
64:43
marxist leninists or stalinists or
64:45
maoists or
64:46
dengues or anything like that but for
64:48
straight up like you know old school
64:50
marxists
64:51
no the end to them is what they call
64:53
anarchy
64:54
which is not just the elimination of
64:55
unnatural hierarchies like
64:57
uh like the government and things like
64:59
that the state but also the elimination
65:01
of what they think to be
65:02
all on all hierarchies being unnatural
65:05
um
65:05
now we as right-leaning anarchists would
65:08
say no there are some hierarchies
65:10
that are natural uh if i
65:13
hire you to do something and i say i’m
65:16
paying you
65:16
but i need you to do this one thing for
65:18
me to whatever extent you’re doing
65:21
something for me in exchange for
65:22
compensation there’s a level of
65:23
hierarchy
65:24
there’s a hierarchy that comes from you
65:26
know trusting people
65:27
to be experts on something and and
65:29
deferring to them on on things but
65:31
choosing to defer to them so what’s
65:33
important to us isn’t removing all
65:35
hierarchy
65:36
it’s removing the coercion and allowing
65:38
hierarchy to naturally rise
65:40
and naturally be created in a much more
65:42
decentralized way and based on actual
65:44
merit and value rather than
65:46
you know i i’m gonna point a gun at you
65:48
and force you into my hierarchy or use
65:51
the state
65:51
or use some kind of coercive mechanisms
65:53
to force you into it
65:55
but no they they want what they call
65:56
anarchy as well um which is another
65:58
perfect example of definitions
66:00
we can often talk to each other and even
66:01
if we don’t walk away agreeing 100
66:03
percent
66:04
uh we can walk away realizing wow i
66:07
agree with this person a lot more than i
66:08
did before
66:09
the other and part of that what what
66:11
leans into that is
66:13
talk to the other person as though you
66:15
actually want to hear what they have to
66:17
say
66:18
instead of have a debate and an argument
66:20
with them
66:22
even if they’re trying to still have
66:24
that argument with you you don’t have to
66:26
match their energy you can say to them
66:28
hey what do you think about this
66:29
okay that’s interesting what do you
66:31
think about that two things happen
66:32
number one
66:33
you’re finding out what they actually
66:35
think and number two
66:36
they in the back of their head are
66:37
realizing wow this person actually wants
66:40
to have a conversation with me they’re
66:41
not you know i can put i can put my
66:43
dukes down and we can actually have a
66:45
talk and a a
66:46
a good faith flowing of ideas between
66:48
each other
66:49
that will go so much further not just in
66:51
the libertarian world but but
66:52
in everything that we do approaching
66:55
people as people who have who have at
66:56
least a
66:57
valid uh potential valid points to make
67:00
and that you might be missing out by
67:02
fighting them instead of listening to
67:03
them
67:04
and and hopefully they can get their
67:06
dukes down
67:07
so that now they’re not missing out on
67:09
what you can you can share with them so
67:10
that that’s the answer to that
67:12
um uh let’s see here someone asked
67:15
how is mixtape pronounced i can’t find
67:17
it anymore
67:18
it’s just mixtape m-i-x-t-a-p
67:21
it’s just mixtape um yeah kill him with
67:24
kindness elizabeth
67:29
yeah he was oh i guess nobody’s saying
67:31
how is it spelled
67:32
it’s just mix tape oh
67:35
yeah not pronounced how is it spelled
67:37
m-i-x-t-a-p it’s just mixtape
67:39
um so here’s the next one from
67:43
uh adam next question from adam
67:49
hey spiking guy on left this is adam
67:51
from missouri calling in on the
67:53
chris reynolds personal injury attorney
67:54
chris reynolds attorney at law anchor
67:56
colin moment and what i’ve got for you
68:00
this time is something i’ve noticed
68:04
is people on both left and the right are
68:07
pushing to bring in more freedom-minded
68:10
and younger people into their respective
68:13
parties
68:14
in an attempt to reform them from the
68:16
inside
68:18
now i can see how this could potentially
68:22
work
68:23
however i’m going to keep my personal
68:26
opinions out of this one
68:29
what i want to know is what’s your
68:30
guys’s opinions on this
68:32
and how do you believe the libertarians
68:35
should respond um shalom shalom
68:39
have a blessed day my friends shalom
68:43
so so i
68:46
am for a very brief stint
68:50
in time uh worked for the republican
68:52
liberty caucus which was
68:54
a caucus for the republicans that was
68:55
attempting to bring liberty-minded
68:57
people
68:58
into the libertarian party um
69:02
this is what i’ve learned from them and
69:06
i feel as though it isn’t much different
69:09
on the democrats
69:10
if at all people will run as liberty
69:14
candidates
69:16
a good example of this would be
69:20
oh god the woman from your state
69:24
she was a big nikki haley she’s against
69:26
him nikki haley
69:28
oh yeah nikki josh that’s so long ago
69:31
yeah she ran as like a libertarian
69:33
minded yeah i forgot all about that yeah
69:36
yeah yeah she ran as like a ron paul
69:38
light
69:39
yeah um but they run as these
69:42
liberty-minded candidates
69:44
and then they get in and once they’re
69:47
inside
69:48
either the top brass in the parties
69:51
are like hey you have to vote with us
69:53
whenever you whenever
69:55
we vote and you end up just becoming one
69:57
of them
69:58
or they primary you and you get kicked
70:00
out
70:02
obvious a few examples a few few
70:05
exceptions being like justin amash who
70:07
he ended up leaving and he ended up
70:09
leaving yeah
70:12
right and thomas massey yeah but if you
70:15
take a look at say
70:17
if you take a look and say oh somebody
70:19
from kentucky maybe
70:20
rand uh he started out
70:24
as you know ron paul he was the second
70:26
coming you know he was gonna be ron paul
70:29
in the senate yeah yep
70:32
and after four years of trump
70:37
he’s better than most senators
70:41
but not by much not by much and honestly
70:45
i think it’s offset by the fact that
70:46
he’s putting the libertarian brand
70:49
on that stuff he does so the libertarian
70:53
brand sir so many times when i’ll say
70:54
libertarian
70:55
there are times that people will say or
70:57
i’ll say i’m a libertarian and people go
70:58
oh like rand paul and i’m like nope
71:02
like a libertarian here’s what
71:03
libertarians think
71:05
and they’ll say oh but rand paul i’m
71:06
like i’m not rand paul rand paul is a
71:09
republican
71:10
he describes himself as a
71:11
constitutionalist conservative
71:14
he is not a libertarian and he has taken
71:17
that
71:17
mantle of libertarianism and used it to
71:20
describe
71:21
trumpism with a little liberty flair at
71:23
the end but the liberty flares just
71:25
mostly rhetoric right like he introduces
71:28
the brianna taylor act
71:29
which is a great justice for brianna
71:31
taylor act it’s a great thing
71:33
it ends no knock raids it had zero
71:36
percent chance of passing it
71:37
did not pass it never will pass uh or at
71:39
least under republicans and democrats it
71:41
won’t pass
71:42
but then what he does is he’ll turn
71:43
around and vote for these
71:45
absurd budgets that you know give you
71:47
know trillions of dollars in additional
71:49
deficit spending which he said he
71:51
wouldn’t do
71:52
then he will vote for uh you know
71:54
terrible appointees
71:55
to the uh you know to uh uh intelligence
71:59
uh
71:59
director of intelligence to state
72:01
department to defense department
72:03
as long as it’s a republican doing it
72:05
then he will meet with donald trump
72:07
again i just talked to donald trump and
72:08
he thought he’s gonna end the worst yay
72:10
liberty
72:11
and then trump doesn’t do anything but
72:13
then trump gets to turn around and say
72:15
yeah i’m somewhat libertarian rand paul
72:18
likes me
72:19
so yeah i’d say his his slightly better
72:21
voting record
72:23
um is offset by the fact that he is
72:26
assigning he’s the most prominent person
72:29
in politics
72:30
who calls himself a libertarian and
72:34
he’s also the literal heir of ron paul
72:37
and it’s just very disappointing
72:41
it is extremely disappointing so you can
72:42
either go that way
72:44
or an equivalent in in the uh in the
72:47
in on the democratic side is aoc aoc
72:50
talks a great game about a lot of stuff
72:52
even a liberty minded game on certain
72:54
things uh especially when it comes to
72:56
wars and and decriminalization and
72:58
and you know that the war on war on uh
73:01
uh there were on
73:02
people that were on drugs and all this
73:04
stuff then she votes for it
73:07
she was one of the most outspoken about
73:10
this stimulus bill
73:12
then she voted for it so
73:15
there’s one of two things that you can
73:16
do is you can
73:18
go with the program or you can get
73:19
kicked out go ahead
73:22
uh she she and trump were on two
73:24
opposite sides both of them
73:26
were saying both of them were saying oh
73:29
we shouldn’t pass this bill
73:30
because of reasons and
73:35
same reasons for both i think they
73:37
didn’t have time to read it it’s a
73:38
terrible bill we don’t know what’s in it
73:40
you know all that yeah
73:41
both she and trump well she voted for it
73:44
trump signed it
73:45
trump signed it and then and then pulled
73:47
this thing of saying oh well i’m gonna
73:50
i’m going to send back my
73:51
recommendations for changes
73:53
which do nothing because if they decide
73:56
not to
73:56
it goes as is and the worst i can do is
73:59
embar is
74:00
keep it from being implemented for 30
74:01
days and i’m not even going to be
74:02
president for that long right
74:05
and people he pocket veto no he didn’t
74:07
there is no such thing as a pocket veto
74:09
or a line of veto he didn’t do it well
74:11
actually there is a pocket veto that’s
74:12
refusing to sign it he didn’t do that he
74:14
signed it
74:15
he literally signed it she literally
74:16
voted for it you’re never going to be
74:18
able to change the republican or
74:19
democrat parties from the inside because
74:21
they are one party
74:22
they are the republicrap machine that
74:24
has been built for the benefit of a
74:26
small handful of incredibly powerful
74:28
crony corporates corporations and
74:30
multi-billionaires
74:31
who use these two parties and the good
74:34
cop bad cop routine that they’ve created
74:37
to rob americans of having a viable
74:39
option
74:40
away from the the theft that they’re
74:42
being imposed that’s being imposed upon
74:44
them
74:44
by those powerful people and the clowns
74:46
they put in office there is no changing
74:48
that system
74:49
you have to replace them with people who
74:51
aren’t going to do that and who want to
74:52
not only just replace them in office but
74:54
actually dismantle that entire
74:56
system so um here is the next
75:01
question from will
75:05
[Music]
75:06
will mcelveen here on the chris reynolds
75:09
personal
75:10
personal injury attorney attorney at law
75:13
anchor call-in moment as laser legend
75:16
would say
75:17
tm got a question for you all on speed
75:21
limits
75:22
is it just me or is speed or speed
75:24
limits just arbitrary
75:26
like i should be able to go as fast as i
75:28
want as long as i’m not endangering
75:29
people i mean come on now
75:31
it’s just [ __ ] second question
75:34
spike i’m more than willing to come to
75:37
your house
75:38
and rifle through your cd collection so
75:41
i can find this mixtape
75:43
i feel like we need to have this mixtape
75:47
anyway you know how i feel about y’all
75:51
i love you and hashtag guy all fun
75:57
there is
76:00
yeah oh i love will um so everyone
76:04
this is there was
76:07
a both a cd and cassette of the mixtape
76:11
there were actually multiple
76:13
cds and cassettes because all the tracks
76:14
couldn’t fit on just one
76:17
those are all gone those were all of
76:21
not sure why all of my cars get totaled
76:23
eventually either by me or someone else
76:25
it’s just what happens and uh i
76:29
i keep my cars until they get totaled
76:31
and then i get a new one
76:32
usually often by someone else but uh
76:36
the uh i had a a uh cd
76:39
and i had a cassette because the cd
76:42
changer in my
76:44
was it the market or the town car one of
76:46
my cars stopped working so i also so i
76:48
actually
76:49
made i actually recorded a cassette from
76:51
recorded cassettes from the cds
76:54
so because the cd changer stopped
76:55
working so
76:57
that existed it does there is no
77:00
none of those exist anymore they don’t
77:03
i have that i have the actual files
77:07
on both my phone and my computer so it’s
77:10
not there’s nothing to rifle through
77:12
it’s not lost and it is somewhere online
77:19
so if this cd is so fire is there a
77:22
chance that this cd
77:25
totaled your car
77:31
there is a not zero percent chance that
77:34
that’s
77:37
that list that it was so good that
77:39
listening to it i got distracted from
77:42
driving
77:45
there may have been other things that
77:46
also corrected
77:49
jessica mitchell said spike what’s your
77:51
social i need to find your mixtape
77:55
do you need my credit card number two
77:57
that’ll probably help um
77:58
right yeah no it’s uh it’s it’s uh
78:02
yeah it’s really it’s it’s a guy i just
78:05
want to say i
78:06
said from the beginning i’m like you’re
78:07
not gonna find my mixtape i was like
78:08
we’re gonna find it
78:09
it’s it’s not like
78:14
it’s not cryptic if you can find it it’s
78:16
going to be very easy
78:18
like it says mixtape here i’ll show you
78:21
here
78:23
it’s called spike cohen mixtape here’s
78:25
here so here’s a little
78:26
now as far as speed limits go
78:30
oh yeah let’s go well i i agree with you
78:34
i don’t think that uh speed limits are
78:36
necessary or
78:37
should be a thing um to which often
78:39
times people will say
78:41
what about in the school zones or
78:42
residential areas where kids are and i’m
78:45
my answer is the same no they shouldn’t
78:47
exist
78:48
uh you speeding isn’t breaking any real
78:50
law it’s just a law that they’ve
78:52
created for revenue uh but if you
78:56
hit somebody while doing 65 in a school
78:58
zone then
78:59
yeah you should probably be punished for
79:01
uh manslaughter or murder
79:03
uh that’s just my personal thought on it
79:07
um it’s just revenue
79:10
it’s just it’s it’s like a point of like
79:12
when they were talking about making the
79:14
dui limit
79:15
0.05 nationwide that that’s just revenue
79:18
building
79:19
at that point that’s like that’s like
79:20
you had a drink earlier on in the day or
79:23
the fall
79:24
or or or like you had a drink late at
79:25
night and woke up the next morning to go
79:27
to work and there’s still a tradition
79:29
trace amount it’s revenue it’s just for
79:31
revenue you’re not impaired in any real
79:33
way
79:34
and uh when it comes to these speed
79:36
limits
79:37
you’re going 52 in a in a 45
79:43
and
79:46
and then especially like on these
79:47
highways where you’ll be coming off a
79:49
highway where the speed limit 65 or 70
79:51
and then right as you’re getting on it’s
79:54
now
79:54
immediately 40 or 45 and there are a
79:57
bunch of cops there that’s not about
79:58
safety because now they got
79:59
everyone’s slamming on their brakes
80:01
that’s not safe like that
80:02
it’s not about safety it’s about it’s
80:04
about revenue collection
80:06
so a little like they’re for the people
80:09
that want to pretend that this mixtape
80:10
is not real
80:12
i don’t know why i’m fueling this fire i
80:14
feel like i should be saying oh no
80:15
you’re right it’s not real
80:17
and then everyone had stopped talking
80:18
about it but but i feel challenged
80:20
because it is
80:21
real um here here’s a here’s a
80:24
this is from a second please
80:28
why is that not focusing
80:31
well that’s because the light’s shining
80:33
right on it
80:35
it’s your it’s your face light is
80:37
shining on it
80:38
so you can’t see it
80:41
well that’s not helping oh also
80:47
no that didn’t seem to make a change
80:50
here we go anyway this is
80:51
like there’s an actual spike cohen mixed
80:54
tape
80:55
look this is real this is an actual
80:58
there isn’t like it’s real
80:59
this i i listened to this on a regular i
81:01

81:07

81:10

81:17
the bitcoins oh
81:18

84:09
newfound attention i am receiving from

84:11
and gentlemen alike is probably more
84:14
closely related to spike’s face covering
84:17
my face
84:18

84:21
of us getting a drunk matt hicks is my
84:23
spirit animal t-shirt on the website

84:57
i have no problem with using the
84:58
graphics guy to put that together

85:13
convince your wife when she sees the
85:15
gator

85:17
be like oh i get it i get why
85:20
why the ladies and gentlemen are coming
85:23
to our yard for your milkshake
85:25
um you know i recommend it i don’t think
85:29
i don’t think there’s gonna have to be a
85:30
lot of
85:31
explanation
85:34
when you’re wearing the gator what i
85:35
recommend is um
85:37
tucking the head in but trying to make
85:40
it where the body
85:41
is all showing so it just looks like you
85:44
have this really large head
85:46
on this body doing the
85:49
shirt open thing um
85:53
that’ll get even more attention that
85:55
would be that would get all the
85:57
attention
85:58
that would i mean that’s how i would
85:59
wear it
86:01
and again you’re not gonna have to
86:02
explain this to your wife it’s gonna be
86:04
intuitive she’s gonna be like oh okay i
86:05
get it
86:06
uh but thank you for calling i think
86:07

86:34
questions from matt
86:35
laser legend hicks himself
86:38
hey guys this is matt hicks calling in
86:42
on the
86:42
personal injury attorney chris reynolds
86:44
attorney at law anchor call and moment
86:46
tm it’s time for my serious
86:50
question so uh i i heard an interview
86:53
that lindsey graham did on um i think
86:56
fox news because that’s where he lives
86:58
basically
87:00
yeah lindsey graham and he’s wait a
87:02
second
87:06
i feel personally attacked
87:11
because i’m on fox news every week now
87:15
i’m sure you didn’t mean it that way has
87:18
uh
87:19
you’re a vibrant future republican party
87:22
what was that you’re on kennedy that’s
87:26
different that’s not like
87:28
you’re not on tucker that’s fair
87:32
no you’re right you’re right i’m not on
87:33
like the five
87:35
or whatever okay that’s fair right
87:37
vibrant future in the republican party
87:44
um i’d like to get your guy’s opinion on
87:48
on how you think
87:48
that shit’s going to play out hashtag
87:52
laser legend
87:53
i didn’t i saw i need to play this part
87:54
again because i know he said he said
87:57
no it’s vibrating
88:00
saying that lindsey graham has a vibrant
88:02
future in the republican party
88:05
lindsey graham said that trump has a
88:06
vibrant future
88:08
in the republican party and we kind of
88:11
touched on this earlier
88:12
and yes
88:16
trump does have a vibrant future in the
88:17
republican party
88:19
will it be donald trump or will it be
88:22
one of the trumps
88:25
that’s also possible yeah
88:28
trump’s legacy is going to be living on
88:30
in the republican party
88:32
and the trumpites the mega the mega
88:34
people
88:35
they’re going to be lining up to vote
88:37
for you know whether it’s don jr or eric
88:40
or ivanka or baron
88:43
or even the other one whose name i don’t
88:45
know
88:46
um they’ll continue to do they
88:49
oh yeah
88:54
um um
88:57
but they will absolutely line up to do
88:59
this
89:00
and it will it will become
89:03
part of the republican dna
89:06
essentially i think um so lindsey graham
89:09
lindsey graham is right yes there is a
89:11
vibrant future for trump and the
89:13
libertarian
89:14
nope in the republican party um
89:18
there is a vibrant future for trump in
89:20
the republican party
89:21
but um it’s whether or not
89:26
the people he has uh
89:29
the people he had the people
89:33
whether it’s him or another trump yeah
89:36
yeah i i honestly think donald trump
89:38
himself
89:39
if he stays in the party will continue
89:41
to be the dominant person in the party
89:43
he will probably destroy the party in
89:45
the process
89:46
ensuring that he stays dominant because
89:48
everyone else is going to leave and jump
89:49
ship
89:50
uh to either the democrats or form their
89:52
own party
89:53
or join the libertarians or some other
89:55
third party or just
89:57
not vote anymore because they’ve become
89:58
totally black-pilled
90:00
um you know so but can he continue to
90:03
stay dominant very
90:04
possibly that’s very possible um yeah
90:07
dominant in american politics he’ll
90:09
dominate the conversation but i don’t
90:11
he’s never going to get elected again
90:13
he if he ran again he’s going to lose by
90:15
an even wider margin
90:17
um it’s just it’s people are showering
90:20
on him
90:20
and it and it’s him you know in this
90:23
last election
90:24
republicans did well they held way more
90:28
seats than they were expected to hold in
90:29
the senate because they were they were
90:30
defending the 2014
90:32
landslide they had in the senate uh
90:35
uh because it was six years later um
90:37
they gained 12 seats in the house they
90:39
gained a ton of seats at the state and
90:40
local level
90:41
this was a we don’t want donald trump
90:44
any more
90:45
decision so you know and he could
90:48
succeed in destroying the republican
90:49
party in the process
90:50
or making the republican party just very
90:52
very small
90:53
and and and because the republicrat
90:55
system relies on the on the the lesser
90:57
evils thing
90:57
it they’ll have to create something else
90:59
to replace it or take it over and
91:02
and keep it as a lesser evil party but i
91:04
i really don’t know what to tell you
91:06
um so here’s our final one from uh matt
91:09

think it was today it’s today or
93:26
yesterday all charges against her were
93:27
dropped
93:28
um and the reason that they were dropped
93:32
according to according to new york uh
93:36
the reason that
93:37
even the dog hates her um the reason
93:40
that they were dropped
93:41
uh according to new york is that uh as
93:45
part of a plea deal she went through
93:47
uh like anger management classes and
93:50
sensitivity courses and
93:51
something um and she and her
93:55
therapist counselor said that she
93:57
learned a lot and that she
93:59
the counselor doesn’t believe that she
94:01
is a threat or
94:02
that she has any um
94:06
chance of repeating i guess um now
94:13
i don’t think that it would have been
94:15
the same outcome
94:19
had roles been reversed of course
94:23
yeah so here’s this is a perfect example
94:25
of like when we talk about
94:27
the disproportionate sentencing and harm
94:31
and arrests that are happening for
94:32
people of color
94:33
and gender and sexual minorities and
94:35
other marginalized people compared to
94:37
the average situation that happens with
94:39
white people again
94:40
every individual situation is different
94:42
but generally speaking
94:43
there’s a a easily trackable
94:46
and and and measurable uh worsening of
94:49
of
94:50
outcomes relative to whether you’re a
94:52
person of color or not
94:53
whether you’re poor or not whether
94:55
you’re uh you know uh
94:56
gay or trans or or or or pan gender or
95:00
not
95:00
um we’re not saying that we want
95:05
white people to suffer as much as people
95:08
of color are
95:08
we’re saying the opposite we want when
95:11
something happens with
95:13
someone who isn’t a white woman who
95:16
apologizes afterwards
95:17
and says oh so sorry that they also
95:21
get the you know don’t get the the book
95:23
thrown at them
95:26
yes i made it can you say sorry sorry i
95:29
mean
95:29
canadian story
95:32
i’m feeling the canadian vibe with that
95:34
um
95:35
we you know we want we’re d we want
95:38
where
95:39
where the the courts go oh well did you
95:41
learn your lesson did the counselor
95:42
you know talk you through this and you
95:43
learn you’re like okay great then
95:45
whatever because let’s be clear
95:46
we’re talking about a woman when you say
95:49
i’m going to call the police
95:50
and say that an african-american
95:53
gentleman
95:54
is threatening my life you are saying
95:56
i’m going to bring the police here
95:59
to physically harm you
96:02
possibly even kill you like that’s a
96:06
threat of
96:07
violence to add a little cherry to the
96:10
top of that mess
96:11
she’s choking her dog like that dog
96:14
couldn’t breathe a few of those times
96:16
and she’s like basically abusing the dog
96:18
again on the scale of things the whole
96:21
threatening to have a man murdered
96:23
or or or greatly beaten and put in a
96:25
cage
96:26
certainly outweighs the choking the dog
96:28
but she was also choking a dog
96:30
so it’s like she’s being about as much
96:33
of a menace to everyone
96:34
and everything around her as she could
96:35
be in that
96:37
for anybody who doesn’t know how this
96:39
entire situation got started
96:41
um gentlemen i don’t i don’t know his
96:44
name anymore yeah i don’t remember him
96:47
he was uh he was in the park uh with a
96:50
pair of binoculars bird watching
96:53
and she was letting her dog run around
96:57
uh off the leash and i think it was
96:59
barking at him and he said hey can you
97:01
get your dog and then you kind of see
97:05
everything that happens after that
97:08
um she
97:11
took off she took offense to it and then
97:13
uh he
97:14
started recording her she didn’t like it
97:16
and she said that uh
97:18
she called the police and said an
97:19
african-american man is threatening me
97:21
and my dog
97:23
an african-american man is threatening
97:24
me and my she said it like four times
97:26
she said it like three or four times i’m
97:28
being threatened by an african-american
97:30
man
97:31
now thankfully when the police showed up
97:34
jesse gifford has a
97:35
point though birds aren’t real so what
97:38
was he really doing
97:39
um
97:43
research amy cooper truth
97:48
no listen uh
97:52
i you know thankfully when the police
97:53
showed up they saw this for what it was
97:56
uh he was not charged with anything and
98:00
uh and and you know and and and she was
98:03
actually charged
98:04
with you know filing a fall you know
98:06
threat threat uh filing a false police
98:08
report and and i think animal cruelty
98:10
i’m not i’m honestly not sure all of the
98:12
charges she had but
98:13
i mean we we saw the stuff she could
98:15
have been charged with i’m
98:18
happy that
98:22
it sounds like hopefully i hope it’s
98:24
true that
98:26
she’s learned her lesson and will never
98:28
do something like this again i hope
98:29
that’s true
98:30
and i’m glad that her life has not
98:32
potentially you know
98:33
been ruined as a result uh uh uh
98:37
you know uh as a result of it we want
98:40
that to happen more
98:41
for everyone that’s that’s what we say
98:43
when this is happening uh uh someone in
98:45
the car
98:46
jared said you know when people say well
98:48
yeah white people get shot by the police
98:49
too like that’s a good thing
98:50
people shouldn’t have to worry about
98:52
being shot by the police no matter what
98:53
color you are exactly
98:54
when we’re talking about this stuff and
98:56
people go well you know white people
98:58
get hurt by the police too yeah
99:01
not not usual not proportionately the
99:03
same unless they’re poor and then it’s
99:04
actually pretty close
99:06
but yeah which is another reason to
99:09
reform the police and hold them
99:11
accountable and and have restorative
99:13
justice instead of punitive justice yes
99:15
it will help everyone
99:16
it will even help comfortable suburban
99:19
upper middle white women upper middle
99:22
income white women it’ll help everyone
99:23
it’ll help it’ll be good for everyone
99:25
it’ll be especially good for those who
99:27
are
99:27
the most likely to be harmed by the
99:29
current system but it you know
99:31
everyone will be will be helped by it so
99:33
that’s what we think about it
99:34
uh now thankfully because now what we do
99:37
with this show
99:38
is when we talk about the worst things
99:40
we just keep saying thankfully
99:42
to make it sound better thankfully we
99:44
have a really good topic to talk about
99:46
which is brought to you by our new
99:48
sponsor the gravy king
99:53
so joe biden uh is
99:56
um thankfully uh
100:00
doing what we talked about 30 what 26
100:04
episodes ago
100:07
yeah so 26 episodes ago
100:11
yeah 20 20 back on episode 156
100:15
so like six months ago yeah like six
100:17
months ago
100:18
uh we had uh we talked about joe biden’s
100:21
plan for guns
100:22
and it was spoiler alert you want to
100:24
watch that episode
100:25
after this one go find that but uh
100:30
spoiler alert for anybody for good
100:32
mother’s group
100:33
um anybody that’s part of the uh muddied
100:36
waters group on facebook i said if you
100:38
want to bone up for tomorrow’s episode
100:40
listen to this episode um
100:44
because we’re pretty much gonna see if
100:45
you did so
100:47
right because we’re gonna say pretty yes
100:50
i pretty much just took this
100:51
and moved them so thank you thank you
100:54
for
100:55
the boning that you did up
100:59
thank you for boning up so as we uh all
101:03
probably know
101:04
over the weekend uh it was the third
101:06
anniversary of the parkland shooting
101:08
here
101:08
in sunny florida um
101:11
and joe biden announced that because of
101:14
that
101:14
he wanted to
101:18
enact gun control laws to make sure that
101:20
nothing like that
101:21
ever happened again
101:25
um which you know
101:28
a great way to make sure something never
101:30
happens again is to create conditions
101:32
that
101:32
ensure that it happens more often the
101:35
reason that
101:36
this shooting happened in parkland was
101:39
because the murderer the shooter
101:43
that went there knew that he was going
101:45
to a no gun zones you will notice that
101:47
there aren’t a lot of
101:48
there aren’t any mass shootings at gun
101:51
shows
101:51
or pro second amendment events or
101:54
black panther rallies or anywhere that
101:58
has lots of people with guns
102:00
gun shows uh shooting competitions
102:04
um police departments there’s really
102:07
nowhere where there’s a lot of people
102:08
walking around with guns
102:10
do you ever hear or see mass shootings
102:12
because mass shooters
102:14
don’t want to get shot back right away
102:16
at least they want to kill a bunch of
102:17
other people first so they go to these
102:19
fish in a barrel zones
102:21
where they can pick people off uh
102:23
casually and that’s what happened here
102:25
and then the reason it went on as long
102:27
as it did was because there was a school
102:28
resource officer there
102:30
uh but he didn’t really feel much
102:31
compulsion to jump into the fire he
102:33
waited until the the shooting was over
102:35
and he waited for backup to come
102:36
so people died because they weren’t able
102:38
to defend themselves and the guy who did
102:40
have the gun
102:41
stayed away from the gunfire because he
102:42
wanted to live turns out
102:44
um and so what these policies do is
102:47
we’re going to dive into the specifics
102:48
but
102:49
all of these policies make it so that
102:50
millions more americans are put in a
102:52
situation where they are now
102:53
at the mercy of the shooter because
102:55
they’re unable to defend themselves by
102:57
having their own weapon
102:58
they’re at the mercy of the shooter and
103:00
of hoping that the police someone else a
103:02
stranger with a gun
103:03
will show up and decide to risk their
103:05
life uh to save them
103:06
in time for it to actually be effective
103:09
so
103:10
let’s basically joe joe biden said let’s
103:12
honor the parkland
103:13
that those who died in parkland by
103:15
making more parklands happen in the
103:17
future
103:19
right and he really needs to get that uh
103:21
through in the next two years before
103:24
there’s a relatively decent chance that
103:25
republicans take back one of the
103:27
chambers and then the gun control
103:29
becomes very watered down
103:31
um it’s still gonna be there
103:35
it’s still gonna be there it’s just
103:36
gonna be watered down yeah
103:38
right um
103:41
now what he said in his statement
103:45
was that he wanted to focus on three
103:47
things
103:48
requiring background checks on all gun
103:50
sales banning assault weapons and
103:53
high-capacity magazines
103:55
eliminating immunity for gun
103:57
manufacturers who knowingly put weapons
103:59
of war on our streets
104:02
which is come on man come on man
104:06
weapons of war you know a medium game
104:09
hunting rifle a weapon of war
104:12
what weapons of war on our streets we
104:15
america is
104:19
something um he would also forget what
104:22
he was saying
104:25
yeah i know um that’s why i like just
104:27
making up the stuff that he says because
104:29
i don’t even have to really think about
104:30
it it just
104:31
i can trail off um exactly now if you
104:34
compare it to what he said during the
104:36
campaign
104:36
he had eight headline policies most of
104:38
which had sub-policies
104:40
uh that they wanted to include the list
104:42
of legislations are
104:44
adequately fund the background check
104:45
system
104:47
incentivize state extreme risk or red
104:50
flag laws
104:50
red flag yeah
104:54
create an effective program to ensure
104:56
individuals who become prohibited from
104:58
possessing firearms relinquish their
105:00
weapons give
105:02
states incentives to set up gun
105:04
licensing programs
105:06
close other loopholes in the federal
105:07
background check system including
105:09
boyfriend loophole
105:11
the hate crime loophole charleston
105:12
loophole fugitive from justice loophole
105:15
and get weapons of war off our streets
105:17
and ending online sales of guns and ammo
105:20
now everything that he put in his
105:23
abhorrent gun policy
105:27
during the uh election season can be
105:30
categorized
105:31
into three parts it can be categorized
105:35
into requiring background checks
105:38
on all gun sales banning assault weapons
105:40
in high-capacity magazines
105:42
and eliminating immunity for gun
105:44
manufacturers who knowingly put weapons
105:46
of war on our streets
105:49
everything that he says that he wants to
105:51
do
105:53
fits into those three categories yep
105:59
before somebody is like well
106:01
incentivizing state extra
106:03
risk red flag laws all right yeah but
106:06
that
106:06
he’s just going to give funding to
106:08
states in order to do it that’s not
106:10
really
106:11
that’s not really a gun control law
106:12
that’s just him
106:14
saying we’re going to give you money if
106:15
you do this
106:21
go no go ahead same was saying giving
106:25
giving states incentives to set up gun
106:27
licensing programs
106:28
he’s going to be doing this through
106:29
funding he’s going to be giving states
106:31
money to do this
106:33
now and before anybody out there says
106:35
well that won’t work
106:36
remember it was because of ronald reagan
106:39
in the 80s
106:40
giving states money for their highways
106:43
that the drinking age became 21 and up
106:46
across the nation yep yep
106:49
when you tie funding to specific
106:51
policies
106:52
they almost certainly happen because now
106:56
the state legislatures and the governor
106:58
get together and go
106:59
we don’t have to like this policy it’s
107:01
how we get the money
107:02
the money’s tied to it so we just have
107:04
to do it um
107:06
so you know it that works as well as
107:08
anything else
107:09
red flag laws are possibly
107:13
one of the worst things in here because
107:16
let’s be clear this is not just a
107:18
violation of your right to keep and bear
107:20
arms to violation of your right to
107:22
a search and seizure without a warrant
107:25
it
107:25
is a a violation of your right to due
107:28
process
107:29
it allows for any person to anonymously
107:32
say that you are a threat and have a
107:34
weapon and the police will show up and
107:36
take anything you have
107:37
usually first thing in the morning this
107:40
is
107:41
it’s it is the it’s it’s you know it’s
107:44
the
107:44
they’re coming to take our guns it’s
107:46
that it’s they’re coming to take our
107:47
guns
107:48
even if they’re legal even if you’ve
107:50
done everything legal to own them
107:52
because someone anonymously said
107:53
something about you it’s the worst it’s
107:55
the apps it’s a swat law
107:57
it’s it’s a it’s a great way to have
107:58
someone killed if you want to kill
108:00
someone
108:01
is to call the police and say that
108:02
they’re a risk and that they have guns
108:03
that please help please help
108:08
dunk duncan limp
108:11
duncan lump duncan limp yeah he had
108:14
somebody call a red flag on him and he
108:16
was shot in his sleep
108:18
yep he was shot in his sleep um and they
108:20
were arguably
108:24
arguably the one i think is the worst is
108:26
uh the eliminating immunity for gun
108:28
manufacturers
108:29
who knowingly put weapons of war on the
108:31
streets
108:32
because that will lead to
108:37
ford being sued for duis that’ll lead to
108:43
major companies being sued for user
108:46
issues so here’s
108:50
you know libertarians we we recognize
108:53
that people should not be
108:55
protected immunized against being able
108:58
to be sued
108:59
but the way these are worded is what’s
109:01
scary it’s not just saying
109:03
if a gun manufacturer for example if a
109:05
gun manufacturer
109:07
makes something incorrectly so they make
109:10
the safety wrong and they knowingly make
109:12
it wrong
109:12
and they still put it out okay so
109:14
they’ve done something uh uh
109:16
either neglectful or malicious that
109:18
results in harm someone gets shot
109:20
because their safety doesn’t work
109:21
and it was because of an error something
109:23
that they either
109:24
neglected to fix or knew was a problem
109:27
and refused to fix
109:28
it then they should be sued but you’re
109:30
suing them for the fact that someone
109:32
used a product that they made legally
109:36
and like matt said that opens the
109:38
floodgates
109:39
for suing stores for selling you
109:43
alcohol and then you go and and
109:46
you know drunk drive that that that
109:49
opens the gates for all sorts of things
109:50
where you were essentially
109:52
eliminating the concept of putting the
109:54
culpability on the person who actually
109:56
made the bad choice
109:57
as opposed to some also putting
110:00
culpability
110:00
because now the culpability won’t be
110:02
based on who’s responsible it’ll be
110:04
based on who has the most money
110:06
and that’s a terrible terrible way to
110:08
weaponize politics
110:10
against you know certain industries you
110:12
don’t like you can just shut them down
110:13
with lawsuits
110:14
it’s a it’s a terrible terrible terrible
110:16
precedent um
110:18
this so one of the things is is he wants
110:21
to reduce
110:21
high-capacity magazines the parkland
110:25
shooter
110:26
used 10-round magazines he didn’t use
110:29
high-capacity magazines
110:31
or actually they’re called normal combat
110:33
20 rounds and 30 rounds are normal
110:35
capacity
110:36
uh he he did not use the what would be
110:38
considered high capacity he used low
110:40
capacity magazines
110:41
and was effectively able to murder 17
110:44
people in a gun-free zone do you know
110:46
why he was effectively able to murder 17
110:48
people in a gun-free zone
110:50
because it was a gun-free zone
110:53
now we’re not saying everyone at the
110:55
school needs to be armed
110:56
we’re saying that people should be able
110:58
to have the ability to defend themselves
111:01
if they see
111:01
fit another proposal that isn’t
111:03
explicitly mentioned in this
111:05
but it is mentioned in sheila jackson
111:07
lee’s hb 127
111:09
is the so-called mental health dis uh
111:11
well they call it uh protecting against
111:13
people with mental health but it’s
111:15
actually discriminating against people
111:16
that have
111:17
ptsd uh people that have are the victims
111:20
of
111:21
survivors of abuse and rape that are
111:23
dealing with trauma as a result of that
111:25
people that have anxiety and depression
111:26
it also says people with a
111:28
brain disease i have multiple sclerosis
111:31
they might mean me they might mean me as
111:35
well
111:35
so they’re discriminating against people
111:37
and as a result of that discrimination
111:39
people will say well i don’t want to
111:41
lose my ability to own a firearm and
111:43
protect myself
111:44
so i’m just not going to seek treatment
111:46
i can take care of it myself
111:47
so now someone who has a mental health
111:50
problem
111:51
that if left untreated could get bad and
111:54
they’re not getting treatment
111:55
and they still have the gun this is
111:57
geniu this is genius level big brain
111:59
stuff from gun grabbers
112:02
yeah uh steven merritt in the comments
112:05
said can i sue the government for making
112:06
me pay to drive my own property if i get
112:08
in an
112:09
accident no you can’t because of
112:11
something called
112:13
sovereign immunity now that’s an
112:15
immunity i have no problem getting
112:16
let’s talk about getting rid of immunity
112:18
let’s get rid of qualified immunity
112:20
for uh police officers and other agents
112:23
of the state
112:24
let’s get rid of absolute immunity for
112:26
judges
112:27
and prosecutors and politicians and
112:29
let’s get rid of sovereign immunity
112:31
for the governments uh let’s let’s make
112:33
it so they can get sued like we can too
112:36
see how that works
112:42
yeah this what binding is proposing here
112:45
is
112:46
absolutely terrible uh hey what what is
112:48
it it’s uh hb1127
112:52
yes so that that’s that’s the and i
112:55
forget who it’s named after it was named
112:57
after someone who was
112:58
killed um and it’s the sheila jackson
113:00
lee’s bill
113:01
and to be clear its odds of passing are
113:04
are almost
113:04
nil but this is this is the extreme
113:08
thing
113:08
so they introduce something that sounds
113:10
so extreme that anything else sounds
113:12
moderate and reasonable by comparison so
113:14
it’s about shifting the overton window
113:16
towards
113:16
extreme control where you got to get you
113:18
know insurance to even be able to have a
113:20
weapon
113:20
and if you have one single round of
113:22
ammunition you can go to jail for
113:24
decades you know that that’s it’s you
113:27
you create that outrage with this thing
113:29
and then
113:29
and then biden’s proposal looks you know
113:31
moderate and common sense in in
113:33
comparison
113:35
so you had the sheila jackson lee bill
113:37
that came out and everybody was
113:38
terrified by it they were like oh my god
113:40
they’re trying to take our guns we’re
113:41
gonna have to pay
113:42
for uh a license on every gun that we’ve
113:45
owned
113:45
ever in our lifetimes and if we don’t
113:48
we’re gonna have to pay x amount per
113:49
year
113:50
and blah blah blah and now biden comes
113:53
out with
113:53
oh this is all we want to do or these
113:55
three things you know we just want to
113:56
uh require background checks on all gun
113:58
sales banning assault weapons and high
114:00
capacity magazines and eliminating
114:02
immunity for gun manufacturers who
114:03
knowingly put weapons of war on our
114:04
streets
114:06
now
114:08
there was something that wasn’t in
114:09
sheila jackson’s build that’s in this
114:11
one
114:16
he wants to be able to sue gun
114:17
manufacturers she didn’t put that in
114:18
there
114:21
and those lawsuits had that not been in
114:24
there
114:25
yeah the nra would have supported this
114:28
as long as they said they wouldn’t pass
114:30
the other one
114:32
which is what democrats want you’ll
114:34
notice the way that they’re running this
114:36
is we’re gonna fight the nra the nra is
114:38
one of their bad cop good cop bad cop
114:40
routine people too
114:41
the nra every single gun law on the
114:43
federal level that exists right now
114:45
every single gun restriction
114:47
was either written by the nra
114:51
including the worst one of them all the
114:52
nfa the original major
114:54
federal uh firearms the national
114:57
firearms act
114:58
was literally written by the nra don’t
115:00
forget that
115:02
you can thank the nra for the fact that
115:03
you can’t legally own a machine gun
115:06
uh so that they did that or they have
115:09
supported or been neutral to it so there
115:12
isn’t a single
115:13
existing currently existing gun control
115:17
law or or executive order
115:20
currently on the books that is not at
115:22
least
115:23
supported by the nra joe biden
115:26
introduces this
115:27
in order to be able to play the whole
115:30
good cop bad
115:31
cop routine like matt said if he left
115:33
that part out
115:35
the nra would have said well you know
115:38
we’re we’re good with background checks
115:39
we want to make sure that
115:40
criminals don’t have weapons we’re fine
115:43
with
115:44
the second amendment as long as you go
115:45
through the legal process now of course
115:47
the legal process is
115:49
the right of the people shall not be
115:50
infringed it doesn’t say
115:52
the people who went through the legal
115:53
process it didn’t even say the citizens
115:55
it said the people anyone under the
115:58
presumed jurisdiction of the u.s federal
116:00
government
116:00
should not have their right to be be
116:02
infringed by
116:04
anyone not just the federal government
116:08
shall not be infringed by anyone
116:13
that is the what the legal process is
116:15
supposed to be but no the nra would have
116:17
absolutely supported it
116:18
that was added in order to create this
116:20
this false sense of uh
116:22
this false sense of of of of uh
116:25
opposition
116:27
which for anybody who is isn’t following
116:29
us on instagram or twitter
116:32
or facebook um facebook
116:35
fact checked the second amendment
116:38
the second amendment yeah the second
116:41
amendment today
116:42
and said that it was uh false
116:46
yeah there was there was a paper thing
116:50
there was a there was a page from the
116:51
constitution center that just has the
116:54
second amendment
116:55
and it says this has been fact checked
116:56
as false
116:58
the actual literal text of the second
117:00
amendment
117:11
i don’t even know where to go with that
117:13
and
117:14
right like and their reasoning behind
117:16
like if you looked at the fact check
117:17
on why they rated it false one of them
117:20
was joe biden won the election
117:23
nowhere in there did we say that he
117:25
didn’t
117:27
um another one was george washington
117:29
never said this which that’s true
117:31
george washington never said that
117:36
we didn’t say he did
117:39
but george washington never said it so
117:41
that part’s you know
117:42
i rate that partly false
117:47
but one of them was just literally the
117:49
writing of the of the second amendment
117:51
there were like two different ones
117:53
and one had the text of george
117:54
washington that quote that is not from
117:56
george washington but the other one
117:58
was just the second amendment it was
118:01
just
118:02
like that’s that should have been fact
118:04
checked as
118:05
very true because that’s just that’s it
118:07
right there it’s all
118:08
that’s what it says whether you like it
118:10
or not that’s what the bill says that’s
118:12
what the
118:12
what the what the amendment says um now
118:14
thankfully
118:15
uh there’s a good chance that this will
118:17
be negotiated down
118:18
uh joe biden will remove they’ll remove
118:22
the the uh uh the the part about uh
118:26
and by the way when he’s saying ending
118:28
immunity for lawsuits
118:29
uh that also means from the federal
118:32
government so that’s lawsuits meaning
118:33
weaponized civil
118:35
asset forfeiture the using the civil
118:37
process to
118:38
to you know to to further damage
118:40
businesses
118:41
because the civil process uh the the
118:44
uh bar for the civil process is much
118:47
higher much
118:48
lower than the criminal process so it’s
118:50
just a way of weaponizing the state even
118:51
further against
118:52
specifically against gun manufacturers
118:54
uh so that’ll get dropped and then the
118:56
nra will probably say
118:58
yeah okay or they’ll just stop talking
119:02
about it they’ll start talking about how
119:03
the radical left and the antifa are
119:05
attacking our brave
119:06
police officers and then they’ll ignore
119:08
you know the actual
119:10
threat to our freedom
119:14
right
119:17
thankful so everybody go visit gun
119:18
owners of america thankfully yes
119:20
everybody go visit gun owners of america
119:23
and if you’re an nra member uh switch to
119:26
the goa because they are actually
119:29
fighting for your rights
119:31
as opposed to negotiating them away
119:34
yeah nra is negotiating rights away
119:40
why is everybody spelling your
119:44
everybody spelling mixtape is mixtape
119:47
did you misspell it somewhere at some
119:49
point
119:52
if i did i’m just finding out now
119:55
okay maybe people don’t know how to
119:57
spell mixtape
119:59
yeah it’s mixed tape say it got a e
120:03
it’s got a e but uh unless i may have
120:07
spelled it
120:08
smelled it wrong but so we ended on a
120:10
high note eminem is on it
120:12
eminem is on it so that next tape does
120:15
eminem is
120:16
yeah eminem is is frequently is is uh
120:19
is highly featured in it uh so we ended
120:22
on a high note joe biden’s coming to
120:23
take your guns
120:24
um and uh so that’s good
120:28
thankfully um downer episode might as
120:30
well
120:31
it was a downer well we had rachel we
120:32
started on a high with rachel
120:34
and then we did and then we just just
120:38
then cuomo murdered people and lied
120:40
about it and it just won
120:46
it just went downhill uh so
120:50
folks the good news is
120:57
oh the good news is that tomorrow
121:02
wednesday uh uh wednesday gosh wednesday
121:06
the 17th gosh we’re already
121:08
almost one six of the way through this
121:10
year
121:12
and that that’s some good news huh um
121:15
tomorrow i have uh on my fellow
121:18
americans on my show
121:20
i have travis wentworth who is a cyber
121:23
security and cryptocurrency expert
121:26
and so we’re going to be diving into uh
121:28
security issues related to
121:29
cryptocurrency
121:30
some of the limitations on crypto and uh
121:33
and the innovations that are going to
121:35
be able to fix those issues and how you
121:37
know crypto and the blockchain will
121:39
eventually be
121:40
the way that we do everything um so
121:42
that’s gonna be a really cool episode
