Stu does America. We've

0:06

got a new merch item available for you.

0:08

It's our Joe Biden elderly man with a

0:10

poor memory line. Be sure to pick it

0:12

up at a t-shirt, a mug, whatever you

0:15

want to get. studoesmerch.com. The

0:17

promo code is Stu10. You'll save 10%. Don't

0:19

forget to follow us on YouTube as

0:22

well. youtube.com/StuDoesAmerica. Like the

0:24

channel, subscribe for notifications with the

0:26

little bell. We appreciate it when you do

0:28

that. And of course the podcast, wherever you

0:30

get your podcasts, Jason Buttrell is here to

0:33

tell us about the Blaze Media's new bombshell

0:35

filled border documentary. The left is doubling,

0:37

tripling, quadrupling down on

0:39

their love for abortion. Yay. It's

0:42

time to celebrate abortion. But we start

0:44

by doing the EV fizzle. Now

0:46

soon you will be at a

0:48

wedding of someone you don't like, some environmentalists,

0:51

and they'll be on the front of the

0:53

stage. You'll be like, hey guys, it's time

0:55

to do the EV fizzle. And

0:57

you'll want to kill yourself. And that will be

0:59

an appropriate response at that particular time. But

1:02

while that might sound fun at a wedding,

1:04

it's not fun for the companies that are

1:07

actually doing this. And it's really kind of

1:09

been an amazing turnaround. You remember electric vehicles

1:11

were the thing, the hottest thing you could

1:13

possibly have. Obviously Tesla leading the

1:15

way, but a lot of companies were investing

1:18

heavily in this. And we've seen it kind

1:20

of go in the tank quickly. Tesla

1:22

and EV stocks slide on startling news.

1:25

But Ford rallies. This is from

1:27

about a week ago. And we've

1:29

seen that fall continue to happen.

1:32

And not only have we seen it with more established companies

1:34

like Tesla and some of the other companies

1:36

that are announcing these big pullbacks on their

1:38

EV programs, we're also seeing

1:40

all the electric vehicle startups outside of

1:43

Tesla have massive problems. Batteries

1:46

drained, EV startups are struggling to maintain momentum. That's

1:48

a hell of a way of describing the four

1:50

charts you see on your screen right now. That

1:53

is not struggling to

1:56

maintain momentum. This is

1:58

cataclysmic. and wrong

2:00

like collapses in progress lucid

2:02

is down ninety five percent

2:05

rivian is down ninety four percent

2:08

nikola of course down ninety nine

2:10

percent poll star just absolutely trashing

2:12

its competitors only down ninety one

2:15

percent so that's good news

2:17

for them i'm i'm i'm sure now of

2:19

course you not only have that side of

2:21

it business part of this

2:23

not going well the market reacting negatively to

2:26

electric vehicles but you also have

2:29

you may be there are other

2:31

they're cracked up to be when

2:33

it comes to the environment electric

2:35

vehicles release more toxic emissions and

2:37

are worse for the environment than

2:39

gas-powered cars according to a new

2:41

study breaks and tires on the

2:43

visa release eighteen hundred fifty times

2:45

more particle pollution compared to modern

2:48

tailpipe which have efficient exhaust filters

2:50

bringing gas-powered vehicles emissions to new

2:52

lows and of course you

2:54

see all this happening the negative market

2:56

reaction the negative news on the environmental

2:58

impact and of course you know that

3:01

the biden administration is going to back

3:03

off of all their promises when it

3:05

comes to no

3:08

actually no janet yellen touts electric

3:10

vehicle boom and

3:13

automakers themselves tone down the height

3:15

yellen touted about in biden's ev

3:17

actions in kentucky at a new

3:20

forty nine million dollar ev battery

3:22

factory built by advanced and i

3:24

know products a battery supplier

3:26

that will receive tax credits of course

3:28

provided inflation reduction act for the new

3:30

clean energy facility for the boom of

3:33

the e v related investments in kentucky

3:35

yelling and yellen said the biden administration

3:37

policies and federal funds refueling private sector

3:39

investments will get into how these and

3:42

boom is occurring quote-unquote in just a

3:44

couple minutes but the momentum in

3:46

drop is real and i'd there is no

3:48

clear piece of evidence in the than in

3:50

today's new york times the kind of their

3:52

big story of the day is

3:54

about electric vehicles is called a new

3:57

surge in power use is threatening u.s.

3:59

climate goals And it goes deeper than

4:01

just electric vehicles, but it describes real

4:03

problems. You're going to be shocked to hear

4:05

this. Real problems with the pitch

4:08

that you've received over the past few

4:10

years about how wonderful all of this

4:12

green technology really is and what it

4:14

will do for our country and economy

4:16

and where we're going from here. Why?

4:19

Well, it's always unexpected,

4:21

right? Green technology, they

4:23

make these projections. They tell you how much better

4:26

everything is going to be. And then you

4:28

get punched in the face by reality. Reality

4:31

comes into play and reality says, oh, by

4:33

the way, all those ridiculous projections you made,

4:35

they're all nonsense. We're going a

4:38

totally different direction. We're going in a direction

4:40

of prosperity and new technology that

4:42

you didn't see coming. What a surprise.

4:44

They didn't see it coming. They never

4:46

see it coming. I constantly go back

4:48

to this one story from the year

4:51

1900, but it's a really, really

4:54

beneficial way to look at how difficult it

4:56

is to project what the next environmental catastrophe

4:59

is going to be in 1900. In

5:02

Manhattan, people were out of

5:04

their mind trying to figure out what you

5:06

would do with all the horse poop. We've

5:10

got this city is growing and

5:12

all the poop is all over the place because there's

5:14

more and more horses going around. It's pulling people around.

5:16

This is going to keep growing. There's going to be

5:18

horses everywhere. There's going to be poop everywhere. How do

5:21

we get it off of this island? A

5:23

sensible question. It's in 1900. But

5:26

then the automobile came around and

5:29

got rid of that problem completely.

5:32

That stuff keeps happening. Sometimes

5:34

it's good news. I would argue it was good news with

5:37

the automobile, not only because you get

5:39

to where you want to go faster, but it smells a

5:41

lot better, at least compared to

5:43

most Ubers. Sometimes you get an

5:45

Uber. Actually, you'd probably rather have the horse poop. Most

5:48

of the time it smells better. Here's some of

5:50

the New York Times. These are all quotes. Over

5:53

the past year, electric utilities have nearly

5:55

doubled their forecast. In one year, they've

5:57

doubled their forecast of how much additional.

6:00

power they will need by 2028 as

6:02

they confront an unexpected explosion in

6:04

the number of data centers, an abrupt

6:07

resurgence in manufacturing driven by new federal

6:09

laws, and millions of electric vehicles

6:11

plugged in. Take those three for a

6:13

second. Take those three

6:16

examples. This is so fundamental to what we

6:18

talk about all the time. If you are

6:20

a conservative, if you are someone who cares,

6:22

if you're a libertarian, who cares about the

6:25

way markets actually work and are skeptical of

6:27

government action, this is such a great example.

6:30

And what are the three? Data

6:32

centers? Well, we have all

6:34

these new laws trying to incentivize computer

6:37

technology type stuff here in America.

6:40

The CHIPS Act is part of

6:42

that. The resurgence in manufacturing driven

6:44

by new federal laws, right? The

6:47

Inflation of Justice Adjustment Act trying to get

6:49

you to buy American all these things. Well,

6:51

all this manufacturing is now being propped up

6:53

by the government here in the United States,

6:56

even though it's far too expensive to actually

6:58

compete. So what happens? Well, you got a

7:00

lot of new demands on electricity there and

7:02

millions of electric vehicles. How many times have talked about this?

7:06

If you start, if you go from a

7:08

gas economy with your transportation to

7:10

an electric economy, some of that will be fun. Some of that will

7:12

be cool. The cars will go nice and fast. Some of them, some

7:14

of them will be great. But when

7:16

you're changing that demand on your grid, when

7:19

you don't have a grid that can actually

7:21

hold up to it, that's kind of a

7:23

problem. How many times have conservatives said this?

7:25

You're incentivizing action you're not prepared for. Well,

7:28

here we are. Now expectations are doubling.

7:30

Their projections were totally wrong. Remember, these

7:32

are the projections telling you we're going

7:34

to save all these emissions and save

7:36

the world. Well, they were all wrong

7:38

yet again. Here we are

7:41

in an ironic twist, says the New

7:43

York Times. The swelling appetite

7:45

for more electricity driven not only

7:48

by electric cars, but also by

7:50

battery and solar factories and other

7:52

aspects of the clean energy transition.

7:56

They could also just jeopardize the country's

7:58

plans to fight climate change. who

8:01

could have possibly seen this

8:03

coming except those with eyes.

8:08

And here we are once again

8:10

fighting these same battles that we were right

8:12

on all these years, and we're

8:14

in the same period. Now the New York

8:16

Times comes along. They're like, oh my God,

8:19

the Hunter Biden laptop is real. Well, thanks

8:21

for joining the party, New York Times. In

8:23

Georgia, where dozens of electric vehicle companies and

8:25

suppliers are setting up shop, the state's largest

8:27

utility now expects, ready

8:30

for this, 16

8:33

times as much growth

8:35

in electricity demand this decade as

8:37

it did two years ago.

8:42

Not 50 years ago, not 100 years ago, not

8:44

even 10 years ago. Two

8:47

years ago, they're like, oh, we need this

8:49

much. Oh, now we need 16 times as

8:51

much. Does that sound like the

8:53

type of people who should be advising you

8:55

on what vehicle you should

8:58

be buying or where the economy

9:00

should be going? Has anyone ever

9:02

heard of centrally planned economies losing?

9:04

It used to be American history.

9:08

We knew we won and we knew the Soviet

9:10

Union lost. Why? They were

9:12

centrally planning all the time. We weren't. We

9:14

won. Now we centrally plan and now we lose. That's

9:17

how this goes. Some utilities say

9:19

they need additional fossil fuel capacity because

9:21

cleaner alternatives like wind or solar aren't

9:23

growing fast enough and can be bogged

9:26

down by what? Delayed

9:28

permits and snarled supply

9:30

chains. Utilities

9:33

also note, and you'll be shocked to

9:35

hear this, that data centers and factories

9:38

need 24 hour a day power. Something

9:42

wind and solar can't

9:45

do alone. Really?

9:50

I for one am totally stunned by

9:52

this. You're telling me the sun just

9:55

isn't out 24 hours a day. The

9:58

wind isn't a reliable. 24

10:00

hour a day power source, that's

10:02

shocking to me. I've always noted

10:05

when I walk outside, the wind is the exact same

10:07

speed all the time and it's always light. No matter

10:09

when I walk out of my home, what world are

10:11

these guys living in? Every

10:14

person on earth knew this was coming

10:16

except the experts in the New York

10:18

Times and in our government. But

10:21

here we are to meet spiking

10:23

demand utilities in states like Georgia, North Carolina,

10:25

South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia are proposing to

10:27

build dozens of power plants over the next

10:29

15 years that would burn what? Oh,

10:33

reliable natural gas.

10:35

In Kansas, one utility has postponed the retirement

10:38

of a coal plant

10:40

to help power a giant electric

10:42

car battery factory, which I freaking

10:45

love that little anecdote. This

10:47

is happening of course all throughout the green economy.

10:50

Some utilities say they'll need additional

10:52

fossil fuel capacity because cleaner alternatives

10:54

like winter solar aren't growing fast

10:56

enough and can

10:59

be bogged down by delayed permits

11:01

and snarled supply chains while

11:03

a data center can be built in just one year.

11:06

Think about this. It can

11:08

be five years or longer to connect

11:10

renewable energy projects to the grid and

11:13

a decade to build some of the long distance

11:15

power lines they require. Utilities also

11:17

note that data centers and factories need that power 24 hours a

11:19

day as I mentioned. You

11:22

have a one year window

11:24

to launch a giant data center, which

11:27

of course money is being dumped into that, but

11:29

it takes five years to get the clean energy ready

11:32

to provide the power for

11:35

that data center and 10 years to get

11:37

the lines built to go to the actual

11:39

data center. Does this make sense to anyone

11:41

else? So

11:44

far one state, the one state that seems

11:46

to be able to do this kind of

11:48

well and keep pace

11:50

with the explosive demand is where Texas,

11:52

where electricity has risen by 29% over

11:54

the past decade

11:57

driven by things like Bitcoin mining, the thing

11:59

that Elizabeth Warren tells is going to be

12:01

the problem, in fact has been the solution

12:03

largely in these cases, liquefied natural gas terminals

12:05

and the electrification of oil fields. Texas'

12:07

streamlined permitting process allows wind, solar and

12:10

battery projects to get built and connected

12:12

faster than almost anywhere else. So everywhere

12:15

else is like, oh, we'll build the green stuff and we'll

12:17

bog it down with bureaucracy. At least Texas is

12:19

saying, look, you want to build the green stuff fine, but

12:23

as I hit the bidenomics strikes back mug,

12:25

which is quite a statement at this particular

12:27

moment, but Texas is actually doing something about

12:29

it. They're the ones building the capacity and

12:31

of course they're also the one that gets

12:33

blamed by everybody. Wasn't

12:36

there a time before you make this transition

12:38

to electric everything that you think about? I

12:41

don't know. The freaking power grid

12:44

and how it can be, it doesn't have

12:46

the capacity to produce that much power. Can

12:48

you get the power to the places you need it to be? Of

12:51

course, it doesn't seem like anyone thought about it

12:53

because they were all ignoring you when you said

12:55

it over and over again. They didn't

12:57

want to hear it from you. You're just

12:59

some guy. You're just some lady. You're just

13:01

talking out your ass. You don't know what

13:03

you're talking about. They're experts. Well, guess what?

13:05

You were right and they were wrong. And

13:09

for some reason, even though every person on

13:11

earth knew this was coming, they're not prepared

13:13

for it. Nobody apparently except

13:15

for Texas actually accounted for the increase

13:18

in power surge. And look, Texas isn't

13:20

like perfect here. We had a massive

13:22

problem a couple of years ago, but

13:25

at the very least they've increased capacity

13:27

enough to deal with the large surge

13:29

in general baseline power. That's at least

13:32

part of the battle. There's all

13:34

this new demand for power, but it's impossible

13:36

to build that infrastructure almost everywhere in the

13:38

country. That's a problem. Now, of course, no

13:40

one would even be using any of this technology

13:43

because no one wants it. Geez,

13:45

I didn't ... I'm going to bring this article into

13:47

you a little bit later, but there's a whole story

13:50

about how these cars are being

13:52

produced. They're going to these lots and they're

13:54

staying on the lots for two

13:57

and three times as long as the gas-powered cars.

14:00

don't want them. They also don't want solar

14:02

panels. They also don't want any of that

14:04

crap. The only reason any of it sells

14:06

at all is all the government giveaways, the

14:08

subsidies that go to people who buy them.

14:10

Well, yeah, you might consider a Tesla if

14:12

they're going to pay you $7500 to buy

14:14

one. Well, okay, maybe that makes sense then.

14:16

Same thing with solar panels. You're getting tons

14:18

and tons of cash to put this on

14:20

the board. I will tell you, I

14:24

was looking at an investment

14:26

I was considering recently and they were

14:28

talking about something with residential real estate.

14:31

They were talking about how eventually this

14:34

real estate package may be purchased by a larger big

14:36

guy that comes in and swoops in and buys it

14:39

up. They said, well, we're buying

14:41

these houses largely to make sure we are ready

14:43

in case someone who's bigger wants to come in

14:45

and buy them up and we have all these

14:47

different restrictions and they need to have this many

14:50

bedrooms and have all these different things. One of

14:52

the things that were a requirement, a requirement, no

14:55

solar panels, none. Why?

14:58

Well, you got the maintenance first of all, but

15:00

secondly, you have all these crazy contracts with people

15:02

who are selling solar panels and so these companies

15:04

don't even want to be bogged down in it.

15:06

It's a total mess. How

15:09

does this happen? How do we get forward

15:11

from here? People don't even want these things.

15:13

Now look, if you have solar panels already

15:15

on the house, you'd think, okay, this is

15:17

a wonderful positive. No, it's not even a

15:19

positive then. Even if you're not paying for

15:21

it directly, people still don't want this stuff.

15:23

And what happened? I asked you this, I

15:25

showed you those charts, these down 90% these

15:27

companies, all these companies having

15:29

these struggles and this is with a

15:32

very friendly administration who wants to do

15:34

nothing more than give away trillions of

15:37

your tax dollars to these companies to

15:39

do these things. What

15:42

happens if Biden loses? What

15:45

happens if Biden loses? What happens

15:47

to these companies if Donald Trump is in

15:49

charge and is no longer interested in giving

15:52

away trillions of dollars to these companies? What

15:54

happens then? These

15:56

companies are going to die. And

15:58

what happens to your green future? then.

16:02

Much smarter, of course, is to just

16:04

build an economy based on a market

16:06

where people buy the things they want,

16:08

not manipulating the market, to tell them

16:10

what they need. If you

16:12

did it that way, you'd notice that a lot

16:14

of times the market would play out. I mean,

16:16

I think people would still buy Teslas, frankly, even

16:18

without the government giveaways, many of which have expired

16:20

over the years, for Tesla in particular, but are

16:23

still available for other companies. You know, I think

16:25

people would still buy Teslas because they like those

16:27

cars. I think people, for

16:29

example, would continue to use LED lighting

16:31

because they notice it's better. That's

16:34

how these things work and stick. The government can

16:36

come in and spend a bunch of money and

16:38

sure hire some people and brag about their job

16:40

gains and they can brag about the growth of

16:43

the industry. Of course they can do that. It's

16:45

easy. When you're giving away money

16:47

that isn't yours, all of this is easy, but

16:49

that money dries up eventually and when it

16:52

dries up, you've got nothing because people don't

16:54

actually want these products. They don't

16:56

want them. They want things that actually

16:59

work and until you can come up with

17:01

a product that can compete in an equal,

17:04

on an equal playing field with gas

17:06

powered products and fossil fuel backed

17:09

products, you're going to wind up

17:12

17:16

to run an economy and of

17:18

course the people who are running

17:21

our economy these days have absolutely

17:23

no idea that's true. When

17:35

you're going through your grocery store aisle and you're

17:38

looking to maybe pick up some meat for the

17:40

kids, you're going to cook at home. What do

17:42

you do? Where is that meat

17:44

coming from? Do you know? Well most of

17:46

it's imported from God knows where. A

17:48

lot of times it will say products of

17:51

the USA. Well what does that mean? It

17:53

means it was packaged here but it doesn't

17:55

mean it was raised here. There is a

19:51

your Blaze TV subscription. That's how you can

19:53

watch the doc. And Jason,

19:56

thanks for coming on the program. I know this was... I mean

19:59

it is the biggest... issue for voters right like

20:01

to take apart the actual issue which is

20:03

always been a big issue conservatives have been

20:05

talking about the border forever but have not

20:07

always had agreement when it

20:10

comes to the left on these issues increasingly

20:13

though we're seeing some actual cross a

20:15

partisan sort of stuff here

20:17

going on because the situation so bad yeah

20:20

i don't it's it's funny

20:22

you always was not funny it's it's the

20:24

fact that that you always see the border

20:26

come up in election year or in the

20:28

few months leading up to an election year

20:30

all the time now i don't think donald

20:32

trumpet elected president twenty sixteen if not for

20:34

the border and and i think he he

20:37

was a master and making people really care

20:39

about it uh... it didn't start

20:41

becoming an issue that it always been an issue

20:43

but he was very good at showing the people

20:45

you know you know uh... exactly i

20:47

guess how to be angry at this and why this is

20:49

a change i

20:51

do give the trump administration credit for a lot of

20:53

the changes um... because uh... joe

20:55

biden i think intentionally broke the

20:58

border by getting rid of all the things

21:00

that donald trump did i you know remain

21:02

in mexico uh... ending catch

21:04

and release uh... scaling back

21:06

parole all these different things joe

21:08

biden did on one day

21:10

in february just boom just completely destroyed

21:12

the border uh... i

21:15

don't think that any side and that's a

21:17

kind of one of the realizations i had

21:20

towards the end of filming this i

21:22

don't think any side has any real

21:24

intention seriously fixing

21:26

it i don't think they do and then what's

21:28

crazy is and this is what really black filled

21:31

me on it is i thought that at least

21:33

texas would be you

21:35

know different we have republicans uh...

21:37

just like you know like we haven't here like we

21:39

have in washington d.c. that you know clearly see a

21:41

crisis that they want to take advantage of and

21:44

more politically beneficial for them just uh... you know

21:46

talk about it and get people angry about it

21:48

but come on we are this is an issue

21:51

that we have to deal with every single day

21:53

we are right on the border only affect that

21:55

all the communities along the southern border they affect

21:57

the state i after

22:00

filming this i

22:03

had the realization that you know i

22:05

wish that our leaders here

22:07

in texas were more sincere i wish that

22:10

they would do more and

22:12

that is not what i found at

22:14

all doing this that's terrifying and again

22:17

you can watch the documentary

22:19

as part of the blaze tv

22:21

subscription uh... make sure to sign up uh...

22:24

let me go back to how this all came together

22:26

because this was at the period where it's not not

22:28

that long ago few weeks ago or a couple months

22:30

ago where they're having this big border caravan this is

22:32

the biggest story in the country for a week everyone's

22:34

talking about this it was we were told we were

22:37

going to have these extremists going down to the border

22:39

they're going to do all these crazy things we're gonna

22:41

have another january six all these

22:43

things were going on around in the media and

22:45

you were just decided hey why

22:47

don't we just go with these guys and see what's going

22:49

on yeah i mean because i mean i actually do the

22:52

job the media should be doing right like if you're going

22:54

to call somebody a christian nationalist and dangerous

22:56

maybe you should ask that person before you call them that

22:59

yes i that's it i thought that

23:01

was journalism no maybe just don't love

23:03

labels and names that people without actually

23:05

investigating and now the more

23:07

terrifying thing that was a crazy time you

23:09

think about it december january and february were

23:12

watershed moment for for immigration in the border

23:15

december you know we had three

23:17

hundred thousand counters you know on on the border

23:19

and a lot of that was you know coming

23:21

through equal pass right there texas

23:25

sees the border uh... are that will part shut

23:27

shell we park there in equal pass first

23:30

couple weeks in january something like that and

23:32

then that of course kicked off a lot i was

23:35

crazy proud to be a texan at that point not

23:37

like this is awesome yeah and a lot of people

23:39

were for having that same you know feeling

23:42

and that group that started the tech

23:44

take our border back convoy like what's

23:46

you know it's let's go

23:48

in solidarity let's you know support them in they

23:51

uh... announced that they were going

23:53

to start in virginia beach virginia and drive all the

23:55

way across in a big what was kind of branded

23:57

as a trucker convoy you know kinda like

23:59

in can Canada and Europe all the

24:02

way down to Eagle Pass. That

24:04

was the first, if you think

24:06

that we're manipulated by the government, when it comes

24:09

to the border of immigration, we're also manipulated by

24:11

the media. The

24:13

media, instantly, just like you said,

24:16

Christian nationalists, dangerous, January 6th,

24:20

another one, those were the top

24:22

headlines. You

24:24

showed up with them in Baton Rouge,

24:26

Louisiana, so I guess kind of halfway through their trip.

24:30

You show up and the morning of, which

24:32

we have on the dock tonight, they're going

24:34

through a morning prayer. I'm

24:36

like, I'm not getting

24:38

those dangerous vibes. I'm

24:40

getting Christian vibes. I'm getting Christian vibes,

24:43

but very different there. Then

24:46

I go up to talk, so let's take that. I'm getting Christian

24:48

vibes, am I getting the nationalist vibes? Talk to

24:50

some of the same people. They didn't even

24:52

know what the heck Christian nationalists was. When

24:55

I told them that, yeah, this is part of the, that you

24:57

would think that you're against the constitution. You don't believe in the

24:59

constitution of the United States, you know, and you want the theocracy.

25:02

Then they're like, we're literally handing out

25:04

pocket constitution. All of

25:06

our vehicles have been wrapped with a

25:08

big ass constitution on the side of

25:11

it. They're clearly

25:13

not against the US constitution. Then

25:15

I'm like, well, where does this label come

25:17

from? I think that a

25:20

lot of them would just own it. They're like, okay, fine. I don't

25:22

know what a Christian national says, but I am a Christian and I

25:24

do love this country. So fine, call me

25:26

a Christian national. I think we as Christians

25:28

that have strong political beliefs need to be

25:30

very, very careful of that because you're kind

25:33

of walking right into those

25:35

labels that were being thrown around at that time.

25:37

And those labels do have meaning. I mean, you

25:39

know, because you're right. Like what they're trying to

25:41

do now is are you patriotic and are you

25:43

Christian? Therefore you're a Christian nationalist. And like it,

25:46

it's like almost like just like fine, call me whatever

25:48

you want. I understand that instinct, but like Christian

25:51

nationalism has a real history. It's not a positive

25:53

one. They do. There are a lot

25:55

of people who talk about this. You know,

25:57

a lot. There are some people who talk

25:59

about. This idea of a theocracy. And there

26:01

are some people who seem to think that's

26:03

a good idea. I am not one of

26:05

them. I don't think that's what the country

26:07

was founded on. There are a minority the

26:09

a really small. I looked at it as

26:11

gonna start looking into all the people that

26:13

were involved in this. Anna none

26:15

of their views were Christian nationals views.

26:17

I did run across some legitimate Christian

26:20

nationalist, but I guarantee you probably ninety

26:22

nine percent of the country has never

26:24

heard of any these names, right? They're

26:26

not prominent and necessity. or yes, it's

26:28

It's a small fraction of society that

26:30

for some reason, the government and the

26:32

media is trying to make it seem

26:35

like they're a large majority. In

26:37

society and that's where you need to

26:39

start being very very careful with what

26:41

you can adjust for claimants you will

26:43

find of call me that because in

26:45

history the government has always used be

26:47

use of labels. Like. Communist at

26:49

just As marketing I say I see

26:52

this some in a similar way and

26:54

when we run this theory buy you

26:56

a similar way of how the left

26:58

in the media use racist and in

27:00

the left in the media used bursar

27:02

right there are racists there are birth

27:04

or is there are christian nationalist they're

27:06

very small percentage and instead of just

27:09

taking taking that view on and say

27:11

look as we did like look we

27:13

done with. Racism We obviously wrong.

27:15

We're not white nationalist. We think that's terrible. Nina,

27:17

the birth or thing. I never believed in that

27:19

some people did, but I never did and called

27:21

the things out here. This is why we don't

27:23

believe in them and try to disprove that. for

27:25

the small sector people who do believe it, is

27:27

it a doing that. The it's

27:30

much more beneficial for them to keep

27:32

it alive right? Like Barack Obama wanted

27:34

the birth or thing to exist because

27:36

it was an easy way to paint

27:38

all of his opponents as sort of

27:40

looney tunes right? Like it was an

27:42

easy thing for him to do See

27:44

Love does that story every as into

27:46

the way. And I think right now

27:48

the same thing with person nationalism, they

27:50

don't want Christian nationalism to go away.

27:52

it's to a valuable a foil. No

27:54

oh no I I absolutely agree. And

27:56

I'm that's another reason why we are

27:58

to be careful. With. what we

28:00

are labeling ourselves as. I

28:03

was really curious when I first heard that we were

28:06

gonna go do this, because

28:08

this was one of the first big events,

28:10

I guess, from

28:13

the right, post-January 6th. And

28:16

the reason being for that is everyone's scared

28:18

of death on the right to actually go

28:21

out and get caught up in another January

28:23

6th-like scandal. You have agitators

28:25

that are, whether they're from

28:27

within the government, FBI, whatever, just

28:30

trying to catch people involved in something, or

28:33

escalate them into doing

28:35

something, or outside agitators, like actual bad

28:37

people that would kinda get

28:39

mixed up in it. People were just scared to

28:42

let their voices be heard. These people were not

28:44

when I talked to them. They did not care,

28:46

and in fact, many of them were

28:49

telling me that they hoped that this would draw

28:51

people out, not for violence, but just to let

28:53

their voices be heard. They were hoping

28:55

that would be kinda like the

28:58

torch-bearing moment where people would finally

29:00

come out and say, okay, we're not scared. We're

29:03

not gonna be intimidated by either the

29:05

government or really bad actors. We're going to go

29:07

out there and say, yes, we want a strong

29:09

border. We do believe in law and order. I

29:12

don't wanna give this moment away in the documentary because

29:15

it's really fascinating, but

29:17

there's a moment in the documentary where

29:20

you're on the border, and you're

29:22

trying to access a certain point on

29:24

the border. I

29:27

think, first of all, it's very funny,

29:29

but second of all, it highlights

29:32

how difficult this is in some ways. Like

29:36

locking up the border could be done,

29:39

but the restrictions that we

29:41

have, whether sometimes it's environmental, sometimes it's

29:43

legal, sometimes it's private property, all these

29:45

things, and it's almost always

29:48

connected to the central government. With

29:50

all these issues and these borders

29:52

and these border, these obstacles in

29:55

your way, it's almost impossible

29:57

to cover the border at times, and it makes

29:59

it... that obvious that you they're

30:02

not doing enough to actually stop this problem

30:04

i i i don't know if i'm i

30:07

don't want to my head too much as to what it is but like

30:09

you do you do you get it like it's almost like it makes it

30:12

you shine a light on the border in a way that i don't

30:14

think it's been before yet will the

30:16

entire border

30:18

and as far security on the border it

30:21

even the ap you know that the idea of building

30:23

a wall pretty

30:25

much all just bull crap uh...

30:28

i think i will walk and help in some cases

30:30

uh... but a lot of people

30:32

don't know that ultimate solution it's

30:34

part of the solution with part of the solution

30:36

but a lot of people also don't realize that

30:38

if you don't fix silo

30:40

works the wall doesn't matter

30:42

because the actual border is not the wall

30:45

uh... that nothing will show in the

30:47

documentary is there's uh... huge wall down

30:49

there by eagle path but

30:52

it's probably what like maybe the

30:55

lesson half a mile away from the actual border so

30:58

the border is the middle of the real grand so

31:01

anybody wants to come across a border claim asylum

31:03

the moment they pass the midpoint of the of

31:05

the river right business along before you get to

31:07

the wall you're still looking at another ten to

31:09

fifteen minute walk to the wall while so long

31:11

before you get to the wall all you have

31:13

to do is go asylum and

31:16

if the laws are are soft

31:19

if they're just have this like catch and release

31:21

program a parole all these things that are incentivizing

31:23

them to come over the damage are done they're

31:25

already here they're going to be gone within the

31:27

matter of hours when they disappear into united states

31:32

you gotta wonder why did the texas government i'll

31:34

get as close as i think i can why

31:36

did the uh... the texas government such

31:40

a high-profile location like shelby park

31:42

right in the middle of the

31:44

whole time why did

31:46

they do that why do are

31:49

there did they continue for weeks afterwards

31:51

uh... all these red state governors go

31:53

down making a big show of support

31:55

standing right there in the middle of

31:58

shelby park with governor abbott including celebrities

32:00

like Elon Musk. They

32:03

wanted cameras down there. They wanted

32:05

this to get pushed out to

32:07

as many places as possible. The

32:11

way they were showing this, I'm trying to do this without

32:14

getting in trouble, the way they were showing

32:16

this, it made it look like the Texas

32:18

National Guard had completely locked this down. It

32:21

was Texas versus the feds. What

32:23

I found, that's kind of

32:26

a lie. I'll put it like that. But

32:28

we did do some interesting things to circumvent

32:31

some of that security. Legally, it

32:33

was all legal. Sure, sure, of

32:35

course it was. Last

32:38

thing before you leave, you're

32:40

the only other person I know who's into

32:42

this Jake Paul, Mike Tyson fight. If

32:45

you don't know, Mike Tyson, of course, former champion,

32:47

Jake Paul influencer who boxes sometimes, I guess, is

32:49

how you describe him. Maybe actor, I don't know

32:51

what he is. But somehow

32:54

they're going to be fighting. He's 26 years

32:56

old, Mike Tyson's 57.

32:59

What I find fascinating about this is I've talked to a few

33:01

different people about this.

33:04

Some people are like, oh, Jake Paul is going to

33:06

get killed. It's going against Mike Tyson, a champion.

33:09

Other people are like, wait, Mike Tyson's 57. He's going

33:11

to get killed by the 26-year-old who's in really good

33:14

shape. How do you see this fight?

33:16

I think it's going to do it. I'm totally

33:19

into it. I do not like Jake Paul. I

33:21

hate the fighters he chooses. I

33:23

think he chooses fights that he knows he can probably

33:25

win. There was one that was a question and he

33:27

lost that fight. But there

33:29

also been questions whether these are even real.

33:31

It's a media circus. I think fighting Mike

33:33

Tyson's also a media circus. But

33:39

he is not your normal 57-year-old. He

33:41

posted a video yesterday. He looks like

33:43

a monster. An

33:45

absolute monster. I don't care. To this

33:47

day, I'm not going one-on-one with Michael

33:49

Jordan. He's going to destroy me. He's

33:51

got a huge pot belly and he's

33:53

how old? He's probably like 50. I'm

33:56

not playing him one-on-one. He destroyed me. do

34:00

not fight this man yeah if this is a

34:02

real if they've been put the boxing is not

34:04

a setup i think it's not

34:06

in the first rap really i'll make a prediction

34:08

anything tightens going to be a one who wins

34:10

harbucks what i don't know i don't have a

34:12

hard enough that about that and

34:15

i i i i think the thing thing i think

34:17

i'm not at the part time that you did you

34:19

call fifty seems to be to win in a way

34:21

to be actually good as it's just a scam i

34:23

have no idea how much boxer much and i don't

34:25

know much about people but i think

34:27

it's what he thinks you know you think would

34:29

be able to be competitive with a thirty seven-year-old but

34:31

i think i think it's prime was scary type

34:33

of the end of his actual boxing career though

34:35

was not scary no needy add on

34:37

another twenty years fifteen twenty years that

34:40

like i mean it could be i

34:42

don't know he he was getting tattoos on his

34:44

face and buying people's ears off and he was

34:46

still pretty scary right i'll remind you good boxing

34:49

maybe not yet scary exactly i will remind you

34:51

of course we're talking about a convicted rapist that

34:53

suddenly has made it back into our society and

34:55

no one seems to notice anymore totally different story

Great news. Karma Harris is breaking

36:05

barriers yet again. This time she's

36:07

going to visit an abortion clinic.

36:09

Yes, the first for president or

36:11

vice President Lee said they've told

36:13

us the but I'd be I'd

36:15

dump me Academy never made it

36:17

to abortion clinic. I don't believe

36:19

every second, but at least that

36:21

as president it's official event, they've

36:23

never been there. Karma is the

36:25

first one to go to an

36:27

abortion. Played mrs such a fancy

36:29

if they of course obviously this

36:32

is their entire strategy. Make this about

36:34

some me know mythical issue that supposedly

36:36

is for women's rights when in and

36:38

of course half of the deaths that

36:40

occurred because of the procedure are eventually

36:42

going to be women. But the totally

36:44

different thing but like I thought back

36:46

of his like what what an awful

36:49

thing to do. An awful

36:51

thing to do. I mean of the

36:53

people marks poor Rudy Giuliani first to

36:55

hit it out there and they heat

36:57

and front of Four Seasons Total Landscaping

36:59

with hair dye coming down the side

37:02

of his face. was that more embarrassing?

37:04

Than. Presenting yourself as a hero. To.

37:07

What's going on inside The abortion clinic?

37:09

Now. I am the lights as you have like

37:12

a people we during a press conference at a

37:14

school the be there talking to the kids as

37:16

they write on their desks and of little a

37:18

factory and will be there with a hard hat

37:20

on and of the oh look at look at

37:22

this guy putting together these cars and blah blah

37:24

you ever wonder he I don't think that to

37:26

see ah they are going to see com ela

37:28

in standing there as the abortion goes on inside

37:30

the room deal. As

37:32

it is, so why not? Why

37:35

wouldn't Why wouldn't she do that? Is

37:37

it because she's horrified by the actual process

37:39

going on inside and doesn't want anyone to

37:41

know about it? Doesn't want anyone to think

37:43

about it. For any sects. I will say

37:45

I I may be jumping the gun here.

37:47

It's very possible she is doing the press

37:49

conference with the abortion going on right behind

37:51

her so I shouldn't put a pastor. We

37:53

will. We will see on that. and

37:56

we also have olivia rodrigo and her

37:58

cancer she's heading up morning after

38:00

pills in missouri a state where abortions are

38:02

illegal now i don't know for the morning

38:05

after pill is illegal in missouri uh...

38:07

probably assume not made but i don't think any because

38:09

she's famous they may not have shuttered out even if

38:11

she was doing that we've come a

38:14

long way with the pop celebrities right like

38:16

remember like the jonas brothers were handing out

38:19

like promise rings i'd never

38:21

do justin beaver is actually a virgin and

38:23

that would be a big topic for a

38:25

while now it's like a we're

38:28

just going to be dead dot as much sex

38:30

as you want to support the kid in the

38:32

in the lobby i mean i i think i

38:34

guess that's what we're doing now so congratulations to

38:36

the left they've really done a great job bringing

38:38

the culture of life to

38:40

our country what a wonderful thing you're

38:42

standing for here if

38:45

it wasn't for you we have so

38:47

many babies that would be alive and

38:49

what a terrible world that would be

38:51

so congratulations to olivia rodrigo and comela

38:54

harris about

39:05

six uh... months ago i came into the

39:08

radio show and glenn's raving about this

39:10

movie he saw and you know i'd died

39:12

like i've never seen him talk about

39:14

a movie before and think it's not even

39:16

the final cut yet it's incredible you have

39:18

to see it well that movie has

39:20

finally arrived in theaters now called cabrini audience

39:23

and critics agree cabrini is a must-see

39:25

ninety eight percent audience score ninety one percent

39:27

great critic score on rotten tomatoes it's

39:30

based on the true story of a woman's

39:32

fight for the equality health and happiness of

39:34

immigrant orphans i don't know how you're gonna bill

39:36

if i uh... kabreen i think

39:38

they're not going to probably try some point i

39:40

don't even know but it's not it's not about

39:42

left and right here this is a bit of

39:45

a great story a great movie from allahandra montavere

39:47

day uh... this is of course an award-winning director

39:49

of the sound of freedom this comes a powerful

39:51

epic of francesca cabrini an italian immigrant who arrived

39:53

in new york city in eighteen eighty nine and

39:56

uh... is created by defeat crime

39:58

in impoverished children which So a

40:00

little bit too much like New York in

40:02

2024 as well, but that's a totally

40:04

different story. Cabrini sets off on a

40:07

daring mission to convince the hostile mayor

40:09

to secure housing and health care for

40:11

society's most vulnerable. Broken English, poor health,

40:13

lots of hurdles. Cabrini uses her entrepreneurial

40:15

mind to build an empire of hope

40:17

unlike anything we've ever seen before. Left

40:20

and right agree. Cabrini is a film

40:23

all Americans can celebrate and love. It's

40:25

a New York story, but more importantly,

40:27

it's an American story. It's in theaters

40:29

now. Just purchase your tickets in advance

40:31

online. Go to angel.com slash Stu,

40:34

angel.com/Stu. The movie is Cabrini.

40:36

You can see it in

40:38

theaters everywhere. It's angel.com/Stu. I

40:42

don't want to spend your money most of the

40:44

time. I mean, if you give it to me,

40:46

I will happily spend it, but I'm talking more

40:48

about government money. I don't want the government to

40:50

do like 90% of the stuff that they do.

40:52

Okay. That's what I want as a society, but

40:54

there is one thing I want the government probably

40:56

to be involved in, which is really

40:59

cool, super duper weapons. They're awesome.

41:01

And also we need them for our

41:04

defense. I think spending sometimes irrationally

41:06

on weapons and future weapon design is

41:08

something the government should be, if

41:10

we're going to do anything, they should do that. Well, now

41:13

we have something, this is from the British government,

41:15

embarrassingly, but the British

41:17

government is beating us on this, but

41:20

air defense for $13 a shot, how

41:22

lasers could revolutionize the

41:24

way militaries counter enemy

41:27

missiles and drones and lasers. I'm

41:31

really interested and excited about this.

41:33

I mean, if you watch the, I can't remember which documentary

41:35

it was, it was one where the, was

41:37

it White House Down? One of those, one of

41:40

those. And although the swarm of drones come down

41:42

and you look at that and you're like, how

41:45

could we defeat that? It's so cheap.

41:47

We're seeing it with the Houthis now,

41:49

where it's really difficult to do. And we're

41:51

shooting down $2,000 drones with $500,000 missiles. And even that's

41:57

really hard to do, but we're able to pretty much

41:59

do it. $13 a shot

42:01

if this is reality this is going to be an incredible thing

42:03

and we should be developing stuff like this all the time Also

42:06

one more quick thing Bernie Sanders has

42:08

unveiled unveiled a 32-hour workweek bill This

42:11

would basically mean instead of getting overtime at 40 hours you get it

42:13

at 32 you get 1.5 times Hours

42:17

for anything longer than eight hours

42:19

and yes a typical You

42:22

know Bernie Sanders Union type

42:24

thing where they want to make everybody everything's

42:26

free someone I who is it Stephanie slate

42:28

I think pointed this out, you know

42:30

progressive economics means wanting to only have $10

42:33

a day healthcare only cost the parents $10

42:36

But then you also have to pay $20 an hour to

42:38

all the employees who live there. How does that work? No

42:41

one knows and this Bernie Sanders thing is nonsense. Of

42:43

course, it shouldn't pass. I will say The

42:45

32-hour workweek or something like it is coming.

42:48

This is not this is not this is happening. It's

42:50

going to happen Because

42:52

of market forces the

42:54

AI stuff with how it's taking jobs I think

42:56

the way this likely looks is not necessarily all

42:59

the jobs go away But that the jobs wind

43:01

up being far fewer hours than they were it's

43:03

gonna start going down towards 32 We

43:06

saw this pitch for $15 minimum wage Everybody laughed

43:08

at it including me when it started and then

43:10

here we are It seems like basically everyone's doing

43:12

that now the 32-hour workweek is gonna come We

43:15

better get used to it better figure out what we're doing with

43:17

our lives because the world is changing quickly

43:26

Okay, so here's what happened I gotta get through these quickly

43:28

because they're amazing and then I have a question for you

43:31

at the end well The

43:35

rats are all high so that The

43:40

New Orleans Police Department had a bunch of rats

43:42

and they went into the evidence room and they

43:45

ate all the drugs so the rats are high

43:47

I give you a second story a chemical

43:50

cat at large In

43:53

a Japanese city officials warn chemical cat

43:55

fell into a bat of chemicals now

43:57

is covered in toxic chemicals My

44:00

question for you is, who wins in

44:02

a fight? Is it

44:04

the chemical cat or the fleet

44:06

of drug-infested rats? Now of course if they

44:08

were cocaine rats, I would pick the rats.

44:11

However, they've been eating the marijuana.

44:14

So they're stone rats. They might be very

44:16

hungry, but I think defeatable because they're going

44:18

to be just far too dais

44:21

and confused.
