Tonight's topic is, has Trump's presidency been successful? [1:54] I'm going to start by introducing the affirmative speaker for that question. [1:59] He is known for his high energy and sharp debate style, which has gotten him invited to elite podcast platforms such as the Joe Rogan Experience and the PBD Podcast. [2:13] He is also the leader of the organization known as The Crucible. Please join me in welcoming Andrew Wilson. [2:20] With that, we will be introducing the negative position for tonight's debate. [2:55] He turned off the music, James. [2:56] He is best known as a bold and outspoken political commentator, recognized for his energetic presence and his coverage of current events across major platforms. [3:13] He has been a prominent voice with InfoWars and continues to engage millions through his independent content and reporting. [3:21] Please join me in welcoming Owen Schroyer. [3:47] For tonight's format, we will have five-minute openings followed by five-minute rebuttals, a crossfire section of 40 minutes followed by audience Q&A for 30 minutes, and then three-minute closings. [4:00] With that, I have the timer set for you. [4:02] The affirmative going first, Andrew, the floor is all yours. [4:06] First and foremost, thanks all of you for being here. [4:11] And before we do anything else, we got the legend Owen Schroyer. [4:14] Can we give him a good round of applause? [4:26] That said, you're still going to get stomped. [4:27] So, first and foremost, let me clear up any misrepresentation when it comes to my views. [4:35] I am anti-Zionist and anti-Christian Zionist especially. [4:38] I have done many debates on the topic, and I've won them all. [4:42] I'm also very anti-Islam and consider the ideology just as poisonous as the ideology of Zionism, especially Christian Zionism. [4:50] I am not a war supporter in Iran, and I never have been. [4:53] I say this at the beginning of the debate, so when bad faith trolls who are on foreign accounts try to influence American politics in the comments claiming that I'm in some way a Zionist, pro-Israel, pro-Islam shill, [5:05] you can shatter the lies by simply showing them the beginning of this debate, which they won't even watch. [5:10] And you and I can laugh at their stupidity together. [5:12] That said, I also don't believe Jews or Arabs are ontologically evil just because they are Jewish or Arabic. [5:19] I represent a worldview, and I believe there are stupid and evil ideologies in this world, and those are the things I debate against and resist on a political level. [5:29] Today, we debate if Trump has been successful as a president. [5:32] Usually, I would clear this up semantically and quickly with Owen, but we seem to have the same general notion about what success means and doesn't mean, [5:41] so we will just get right to the heart of the debate. [5:42] I'd like to begin by pointing out that Trump stopping two, count it, two different left-wing women from becoming president and being the first president, [5:52] who is a woman, should immediately default him to the position of a successful president. [5:57] As just that alone saved the nation from years of torment and suffering from the most insufferable vocal-fried women the world has ever seen. [6:06] That alone, I feel like, wins me the debate, but there's so much more. [6:09] Starting on the pro-Christian side, office of faith, though I don't like who's in it, I like there's an office for it. [6:17] Affirmed via executive order there are two genders and revoked the idea of gender being different from sex. [6:21] He signed an executive order stopping trans-surgical chemical alterations of children. [6:24] He made Christmas Eve and the day after Christmas federal holidays affirming Christian beliefs as the ones we celebrate. [6:30] He signed an executive order to eradicate anti-Christian bias in the government. [6:33] He expanded school choice via executive order so we could remove our children from a indoctrination center of atheists. [6:38] He signed an executive order expanding Christian participation in adoption. [6:41] He reinstated the Mexico City policy blocking U.S. tax dollars from promoting abortions in other nations. [6:47] He enforced the Hyde Amendment to stop federal funding of abortions. [6:51] He strengthened the conscientious protection for doctors and nurses who are against abortion. [6:56] He supported religious charter schools. [6:58] He directed the State Department to prioritize against Christian persecution abroad, just to name some of his policy directives. [7:04] And that's just the Christian side. [7:06] Domestically, his most major victory is something incredible. [7:09] Net migration negative. [7:10] More immigrants leaving than coming. [7:12] Both legal and illegal, which was his primary function in office from the standpoint of voters, [7:16] and this is one of the few Western nations where that is the case currently with limited exceptions. [7:21] The Cato Institute, very pro-immigration, had to admit themselves that Trump has limited legal immigration even more than illegal immigration, [7:29] negating the base fear from his own base that he would stop illegal immigration, ramp up legal immigration. [7:35] He hasn't. [7:36] Over $130,000 less per month, just on the legal side. [7:40] Real wage growth is up 1.3 percent under Trump. [7:43] It was negative under Biden. [7:45] The federal workforce down 10 percent, which is excellent. [7:49] Crime is down across the nation. [7:50] Even Owen agrees with that. [7:52] The Overton window has shifted right on most national conversations, including LGBTQ and transgender ideology. [7:58] This isn't even getting into the historic court cases like Roe v. Wade and Chevron, which undid huge injustices in the United States. [8:06] These are just some of Trump's accomplishments among many. [8:09] I just can't list them all due to time. [8:12] The idea of Owen Schroyer and many other anti-Trump right-wingers is accelerationism. [8:16] The glaring logical hole, of course, in that is all that happens is Democrats get power, make life worse for everybody, [8:23] and then they just run back to Republicans to fix everything the Democrats did, [8:28] and the entire time is spent by Republicans cleaning up the mess that Democrats and leftists left for us. [8:33] It doesn't work and can't work in a two-party system. [8:35] Ensuring Democrat control by announcing Trump and Republicans just assures a packed Supreme Court, outrageous censorship, mass migration, expansion of gay agenda, feminism, [8:45] and the movement of an anti-Christian and anti-Christ-driven world. [8:50] You guys seem to forget we had Biden. [8:53] It was awful. [8:53] And rather than continue his policies, people elected Trump en masse because life under Democrats is fucking awful. [8:59] Now, you aren't going to get everything you want out of any administration. [9:03] Trump is way too pro-feminist, pro-gay, and pro-Zionist for my personal liking, but we all knew that going in. [9:09] He was still vastly superior to the alternative to Democrats and their cohorts, especially Harris, who wanted to roll back tax breaks, [9:15] and tax as an offset instead of tariffs, which is Democrat policy as usual. [9:20] We knew Trump was pro-Israel. [9:22] He moved the embassy to Jerusalem and tore up the Iran deal the first time around. [9:25] We knew this was part of what we were getting when we elected him, including Owen Schroer, who, by the way, was put in solitary confinement by Democrats and held, in my opinion, as a political prisoner. [9:35] That's what's in store for us under Democrats. [9:38] I will cede no ground to Democrats under any circumstances as there's no alternative. [9:44] There's nothing. [9:45] You cannot give Democrats power, period. [9:48] And with that, I'll cede the rest of my time, but just note that progressive ideology is always waiting to strike, [9:56] and going against Trump is not going to help against that fight. [10:02] Thank you very much for that opening. [10:04] We'll kick it over to Owen for his opening as well. [10:12] Well, the premise of this debate is, has President Trump been successful or not? [10:18] The premise is not, are the Democrats a bad political party? [10:23] I think that we all agree with that. [10:24] So that is not the premise of the debate. [10:26] And I feel that the very fact that we are having this debate shows that there is at least room for consideration that the Trump administration has not been successful. [10:36] And while you do list off things that Trump has been successful on, and I will give credit to this administration on securing the border and lowering crime rates, [10:46] quickly on those issues, though, these are not things that we should have to beg for. [10:50] These are not things that we should have to consider a success. [10:53] These should be things that are considered a standard. [10:56] So really, that's more of a story of how corrupt our country has become, which gets to what this administration was supposed to be all about. [11:03] It was supposed to be addressing the corruption head-on in that collision and destroying it in the process. [11:11] And I think it's fair to say that, at least to this point, it's not happening. [11:14] But here's some of the other issues that I think are going to be more important when it comes to, is Trump going to be successful? [11:21] The economy. [11:22] The vast majority of Americans still believe the economy is heading in the wrong direction. [11:27] We have more Americans that are living paycheck to paycheck today than any other time in recent history. [11:33] And, as everybody is well aware, our national debt continues to go to record highs. [11:39] But it's not just the country that's in debt. [11:41] The average citizen is in debt. [11:43] It's so bad now that people are having to take out payment plans for pizza delivery. [11:49] Now, you might not want to blame all of that on President Trump, and perhaps that's fair. [11:52] But yet, this is the economy ongoing under President Trump. [11:57] And it doesn't help when any time there's another war on the other side of the planet, we have billions of dollars to spend on that, while the average American continues to struggle. [12:05] So, the economy, I don't think you can claim has been a success. [12:09] Tied into that is Doge. [12:11] The Doge cuts. [12:12] Elon Musk believed we could get $1 trillion in Doge cuts annually. [12:15] We got a couple $10 million, and they stopped that. [12:19] There's not going to be any Doge stimulus checks, whether you wanted that or not. [12:23] So, Doge getting cut out cold, I think, was a major failure. [12:27] Barack Obama has deported more Americans than Donald Trump. [12:30] Now, we might get into the details of that today. [12:32] I will spare those details for the opening. [12:35] I'm sure that this will come back up. [12:36] But yet, that fact remains. [12:38] What about the deep state? [12:39] President Trump himself has posted about treasonous politicians more times than we can count. [12:46] So, if there's politicians that are treasonous, and you are the president, then I have to ask, where are the arrests? [12:51] That's kind of the biggest crime you can commit in this country, and yet nobody has been arrested. [12:57] Don't even get me started on the Epstein clients, which are apparently a hoax one day, [13:02] and then the next day Melania Trump is addressing the nation on how the victims of the hoax need to speak to Congress. [13:09] So, I'm not sure where we want to go with that. [13:11] But either way, no deep state arrests. [13:13] Where are all the Epstein pedophile arrests? [13:14] We're not getting those. [13:15] These are things that people anticipated, and yet there's no success there either. [13:19] And by the way, as you mentioned Trump's victory over the liberal women, which I think we'll all agree was a major victory, [13:27] he was not the president when that happened. [13:29] He's never won an election as president. [13:30] Just thought I'd point that out. [13:31] As far as the Office of Faith is concerned, it seems to be going about the same way of the Board of Peace. [13:38] Nothing but vanity, no real results. [13:41] You talk about the anti-Christian bias that they're fighting, yet look at who Trump is working with now. [13:49] He's making sure that Karine Jean Bowler kicked off of the Religious Liberties Commission for her political takes, [13:57] yet Laura Loomer, who is a vehement anti-Muslim, anti-Catholic psychotic, somehow has the ear of President Trump. [14:06] So, I'm not sure if that's really working for the anti-Christian. [14:09] You know, wage growth, that's going to be an interesting one. [14:11] I'm sure we're going to get more into that. [14:13] But I think it goes back to the general economic picture that whether it's Trump or anybody else, [14:19] Americans are still struggling. [14:20] And I think if we be honest here, if we're going to be honest, a lot of this economy is actually Trump's fault. [14:26] And I know he likes to blame it on Biden. [14:28] But if you go back and look at it, it was the COVID economy that caused the permanent damage. [14:33] It was the COVID economy that resulted in 10% to 15% to 20% inflation. [14:37] Those are Trump's policies. [14:39] Now, Biden was obviously a disaster. [14:40] I'm not here to promote anything Biden did. [14:42] But that was the Trump economy. [14:44] The COVID economy is the Trump economy. [14:46] Now, as far as accelerationism is concerned, I don't believe I have ever publicly supported that. [14:52] I do understand the concept. [14:53] I understand why people like it. [14:55] I'm not here because I want Democrats to win. [14:57] And I think this is a very important statement for me to make because much like in your opening statement, [15:01] you wanted to clarify some things that people get wrong about you. [15:04] I want to clarify this. [15:06] I do not want Democrats to win. [15:08] As has already been documented in this debate, Democrats have put me in prison. [15:12] In fact, I was put in jail four times for supporting President Trump, including the last one when I was put in solitary confinement. [15:19] So, believe me, I know how dangerous the Democrats are. [15:22] The problem is, it's not up to me. [15:26] This is Trump. [15:27] If Trump cannot get the Republicans over the finish line in the midterms, that has nothing to do with podcasters. [15:34] It has nothing to do with accelerationists. [15:35] And it has everything to do with President Trump and the GOP. [15:38] And ultimately, that's going to be the major measuring stick as to whether or not he's successful. [15:51] Thank you very much for that five-minute opening as well. [15:54] We'll jump into the five-minute rebuttals. [15:57] The timer is set for you, Andrew. [15:59] Yeah, so this is just straight time, right? [16:03] You said straight time. [16:04] Yeah, so five minutes each? [16:06] Yep. [16:06] Okay, gotcha. [16:07] So let's go through a bunch of this stuff. [16:09] Let's start with the economy. [16:10] He seems to be pretty upset about the economy and says that it's all Trump's fault. [16:14] In some ways, he's correct. [16:16] And in many ways, he's not correct. [16:17] So progressives warned us of this, right? [16:19] Progressives said, if you cut all this immigration, GDP go down. [16:24] Why? [16:24] Because they have an influx of cheap labor, right? [16:27] You have cheap labor that comes in that artificially keeps the wages depressed for corporations. [16:32] They can then sell you things and goods for cheaper. [16:36] Pretty simple, right? [16:37] So what does Trump do? [16:38] Stops all this mass migration. [16:40] Prices go up. [16:42] I'm stunned. [16:42] And we were forewarned of this for years by the opposite side, by progressives. [16:49] And so what's hilarious about this is that, yeah, it is in fact going to be the case that [16:56] if American companies have to start paying fair wages to American citizens, prices are [17:01] going to go up. [17:02] But you can't have your cake and eat it too, Owen. [17:03] You can't say, I want there to be no mass migration to the United States at all, and I want all [17:09] my goods and services cheap. [17:11] It's not going to work that way. [17:12] How can it? [17:13] Can you explain to the audience what the Owen Schroer policy would be to offset that? [17:19] No, you can't. [17:20] Because you wouldn't have one. [17:21] You're going to have to eat shit on that. [17:23] One way or the other, you're going to have to. [17:25] The other problem is, he says, there's a war on the other side of the planet. [17:29] That's true. [17:29] There is. [17:30] It's been going on for about seven weeks. [17:32] That's about it. [17:34] Seven weeks. [17:35] That's our big, hang on, it's my rebuttal time. [17:38] I won't interrupt yours, I promise. [17:40] Seven weeks. [17:40] Not quite the forever war that we were promised from the other side. [17:45] And it seems to be ramping down. [17:47] Not only that, when it comes to that war, what we find is that most of the exports in [17:52] oil are going from China. [17:55] They're going to China. [17:56] How does it not behoove the United States strategically to do something about that? [18:01] Of course it does. [18:02] And we can dive into that, too, in the open back and forth. [18:04] Now, I'm not a big supporter of foreign wars, especially not in Iran. [18:07] I'm not making any excuses for it. [18:09] I'm just pointing out something which is obvious. [18:12] He also says Elon Musk did doge cuts. [18:15] Were Democrats going to do doge cuts? [18:17] No. [18:17] Trump made that promise, and that's exactly what they tried to do. [18:20] He's been hamstrung at every level. [18:22] This guy has three times the amount of court cases against him as any other president does [18:28] in the last 50 years. [18:30] It's ridiculous. [18:31] Democrats hamstring him at every corner. [18:33] So as we go through this, let's talk about Epstein. [18:36] That's another big one. [18:39] With Epstein, you have to separate mythology, the actual mythology of Epstein from the facts [18:45] of Epstein. [18:46] To hear the other side tell it, there is a global, pedophilic, satanic organization which [18:51] runs the United States. [18:52] The evidence they have for that, fucking nothing. [18:55] They have nothing. [18:56] They have no evidence whatsoever. [18:58] Guarantee you he won't be able to provide us with any evidence for that. [19:01] Not a single shred. [19:02] Not only that, I'll tell you something really interesting. [19:04] I do know of a satanic type religion of pedophiles, and right this second, Trump's blowing them [19:12] up. [19:13] Right this second, as we speak, he blew up their leadership. [19:16] The Ayatollah Khomeini instituted the marriage, child marriage, as young as nine years old [19:23] inside of Iran. [19:25] And we're killing them, overwhelming. [19:28] You want to talk about pedophiles? [19:29] Let's talk about pedophiles. [19:31] Where are they at? [19:32] I can tell you who we're blowing up right now who are pedophiles. [19:35] That would be Trump blowing up pedophiles. [19:37] That's what he's doing currently. [19:39] So it's really funny to me, the Epstein people, hey, wait a second, we're totally anti-pedophile. [19:46] This is ridiculous. [19:47] There's pedophiles at the top levels. [19:48] They have no evidence for that, and yet if we just look not too far away, we see that [19:53] there's an entire nation of pedophiles. [19:56] Do you mind doing trade with them? [19:58] Right? [19:58] Owen Schroer recently said, I don't care, or he said in his debate with Shabbos, why is [20:05] it that Iran is not allowed to have a nuke, but Israel is? [20:09] What are you advocating for there, that a whole country full of pedophiles is allowed to [20:14] have a nuclear bomb? [20:15] Why should we allow that? [20:17] It's ridiculous. [20:17] Moving through some of these other problems, he says, the problem's Republicans, podcasting [20:21] means nothing. [20:23] When we're talking about Trump, especially in his second term, podcast meant everything. [20:27] In fact, Kamala Harris said it herself, Joe Rogan, and the fact that Trump went on Joe [20:32] Rogan really helped push him over the top. [20:35] Harris regretted the fact she didn't do the podcast syndicated radio shows. [20:41] He didn't do the podcast circuit. [20:42] She didn't do any of that. [20:43] She regretted it. [20:44] She said that she regretted it. [20:45] She even blamed Myron Gaines, a podcaster, for parts of her loss. [20:51] She blamed him, him and the evil manosphere, because they don't want women to be president, [20:57] like somebody else who's on stage right now. [20:59] So as we go through this, I'm kind of happy. [21:02] I'd like to get into the back and forth as quick as we can so that we can see if any of [21:06] these criticisms actually hold muster. [21:08] He says he's not addressing corruption. [21:11] Yeah, he's not addressing corruption head on. [21:14] It's like, wait a second. [21:16] What do you mean? [21:17] He's going after the SPLC right this second. [21:21] As we speak, super corrupt organization, which was working with the deep state, by the [21:26] way, just pointing that out. [21:27] With that, we'll kick it over to Owen for his five-minute rebuttal as well. [21:33] Or is all yours, Owen? [21:36] Well, as far as when this war started, obviously there's a lot of contention in the geopolitical [21:42] debate realm. [21:43] But at least for this administration, it started last June with Operation Midnight Hammer. [21:49] And since then, we haven't gotten a lick of honesty because we were supposed to have [21:54] annihilated or obliterated, was the official word from the president, their nuclear capabilities. [21:59] And then they came back a few months later and said Iran was weeks away, days away from [22:03] a nuke. [22:04] And so now we're over there again. [22:05] And I think to most people, they perceive this war, I think, accurately as just another [22:10] regime change war. [22:11] Now, you may not care for Iran's leadership. [22:14] You're not going to get any pushback from me on any of that. [22:17] And yet the facts remain. [22:18] This was a regime change war. [22:20] They lied to us about it from the very beginning. [22:22] There is a major contendency of Trump's voting base that voted for no new wars. [22:27] It was part of the campaign promise. [22:28] In fact, Trump himself, for decades, has been talking about how we've wasted blood and treasure [22:32] in the Middle East, wasted it, his own words. [22:35] He ran against Bush's wars in his first campaign in 2015 and 2016. [22:41] And he even said specifically, no more regime change wars. [22:46] So that's just a total reversal of policy on that. [22:49] And this has people wondering who's making these decisions. [22:52] I don't need to get into that now. [22:54] But we're not even getting consistency on the messaging in the last couple of weeks. [22:58] The strait is closed. [22:59] It's not closed. [23:00] We've won the war. [23:01] The war is not over. [23:02] We need to go in. [23:03] Nobody really knows. [23:04] And by the way, I think Trump does that strategically. [23:07] But nonetheless, the truth is that we don't get any honesty from this administration. [23:11] It just doesn't add up. [23:13] And as far as the strategy with China and Russia, I'd like to think that this is all [23:17] going to work out in our favor. [23:19] I'd like to think that that's the play that Trump is making. [23:21] However, it doesn't appear to be going in our favor. [23:24] I think that most of the world is looking at the foreign policy of this administration [23:28] and they're seeing it as very favorable to Israel, which is essentially a pariah of the [23:35] entire international community. [23:37] And so instead of perhaps these countries maybe driving away from Russia and China, I [23:41] think they're driving to China and Russia and away from the United States because of [23:47] Trump's aggression, again, in the Middle East, as the world views it, on behalf of Israel. [23:51] So as far as the Dems, you know, hamstringing Trump, I think that that happened a lot in [23:57] the first administration. [23:58] I'm not really seeing as much of it in this administration, but this gets back to the deep [24:04] state. [24:05] I thought we were talking about criminals. [24:06] I thought we were talking about the Obama administration committing treason. [24:10] We were talking about them illegally spying. [24:12] And yet now President Trump says, I'm okay to give up my liberties for safety. [24:16] I'm okay with them illegally spying on you. [24:18] That doesn't really sit well with me. [24:21] And I think the Dems are going to look at that very favorably when we get to the midterms. [24:26] Israel does have a nuke. [24:28] It is against the, it's a violation of the nuclear proliferation agreement. [24:33] They're not supposed to have one. [24:34] Everybody knows they have it. [24:35] In fact, technically they shouldn't even be our ally because they have a nuclear weapon, [24:38] but somehow they're above all of these rules. [24:41] Now, again, I'm not here to take any, take any ground in defense of Iran, but I will point [24:47] out the fact that Israel is famous for repatriating pedophiles. [24:52] That is a fact. [24:53] Everybody knows it. [24:54] American pedophiles, American pedophiles are able to flee to Israel and get safe harbor there. [25:02] We have many, many instances of this. [25:05] Now, the Epstein files, I don't know how deep we want to go into this. [25:07] This one is a little confusing to me. [25:11] You say, show me evidence that there is a pedophile ring. [25:15] Well, I would slap down on the table, not even 50% of the Epstein files. [25:19] We don't even know how many we've gotten, but it's, but it's 50% max. [25:24] There's not a single Iranian in the files, not a single one. [25:28] Now, there is a certain group of people that are in there, but we don't need to get into [25:31] that, but they all are rich and they're not in prison and that's where they should be. [25:37] So, I don't really want to have to think about Iran's cultural issues. [25:41] These are Americans and people that were using them for blackmail to get leverage over our country. [25:48] That's how most people perceive these Epstein files of which we don't even have the entire [25:53] files. [25:53] But in them, we see references, what appear to be killing people, taking women, young [26:00] women, babies as sex slaves. [26:03] Who knows what else is going on in these files? [26:05] There's very obvious code language. [26:06] I know this, if I was able to get one of my kids' cell phones and I'm reading through this [26:13] cell phone and they keep talking about pizza and grape soda and jerky, I'm going to pull [26:18] one of them aside and I'm going to say, hey, what are you talking about? [26:22] And if they say, oh, I'm just a pizza connoisseur, me and my friends just make beef jerky and eat [26:26] grape soda, I'm going to say, bullshit, tell me what the hell you're talking about. [26:30] If I see you saying, I'm going to get pot from my friend, I know you're not talking about [26:34] a potted plant. [26:34] I know you're talking about drugs. [26:37] So it's obvious the same thing is going on in these emails. [26:40] Where is the investigation? [26:41] If your kid brought that to you, you would not believe them for one second. [26:45] You'd say, this is clearly code language and I'm going to investigate what it is. [26:49] I think we should continue to investigate these Epstein files instead of continuing to cover [26:54] them up. [26:55] Because I do think there is a there there as most other Americans do. [26:58] And that's something that Trump campaigned on and many of his administration talked about [27:02] for years. [27:05] And with that, I'm going to jump into the crossfire. [27:11] This is 40 minutes. [27:12] So this is fully up to you guys. [27:15] If it gets too rocky, I'm going to jump in and put it into 90 second responses. [27:20] So the floor is yours, gentlemen, for open dialogue. [27:24] So I wanted to start, if we could, with Israeli repatriation of pedophiles. [27:29] So you and I both agree that this happens and it's abhorrent. [27:32] Do you know what the numbers are, roughly? [27:35] The last story I read was a CBS story, it was a couple dozen, I think. [27:39] I think the total that I could find, I was being as much, as charitable to your views [27:43] as I could, is about 200. [27:45] That's a lot. [27:46] It's a significant amount. [27:47] But it's nothing in comparison to the Catholic Church, nothing. [27:52] Which is somewhere around 100,000 children, perhaps, or more. [27:56] When we talk about this idea of pedophilia here in the United States, Owen, this is my [27:59] big issue with this, is that there's always a red herring, right? [28:04] The red herring is, well, Israel repatriates pedophiles. [28:06] It's like, yeah, that's true. [28:08] So does the United States in a way, though. [28:10] We have passport bros who go, they go to Malaysia, they have sex with underage kids, and then [28:14] they come back here. [28:16] It's the same exact principle applied. [28:18] The only difference is there's no official right of return. [28:21] There doesn't need to be. [28:22] They're already U.S. citizens. [28:24] But when we're talking about this, we know where the groups of pedophiles are. [28:27] We've known this for years. [28:28] The Catholic Church, for instance, again, part of one of the largest pedophilic scandals in [28:33] the world. [28:34] Which church do you belong to again? [28:35] Is it Catholic? [28:36] I have no qualms with what you're saying about the Catholic Church, whether I identify as [28:40] one or not. [28:41] So go ahead. [28:42] I will sit here all day as a confirmed Catholic and ridicule their pedophilia. [28:46] No problem. [28:47] Yeah, I'm just saying that when you use the red herring of the Israeli repatriation... [28:49] How is it a red herring if it's true? [28:51] Because, well, the red herring happens when you say... [28:54] Didn't you admit it's hundreds? [28:55] When you say, hey, wait a second... [28:57] Yeah, hundreds. [28:58] So it's a real thing. [28:59] So it's not a red herring. [29:00] I'm not... [29:01] No, the red herring portion of it is when you obfuscate away from the arguments on the [29:04] Epstein files as though there's a global cabal of pedophiles. [29:07] I point out in Iran, there's an open cabal of pedophiles. [29:10] You say, well, Israel harbors pedophiles too. [29:13] It's like, no, they don't have official policy for pedophilia, dude. [29:17] They don't. [29:18] They don't. [29:19] You're talking about people that have been actually charged with crimes of pedophilia [29:23] that Israel knowingly takes in. [29:25] So they are very well aware. [29:26] No, no, no. [29:27] That's not in every instance. [29:28] That's in some instances. [29:29] So they are very well aware. [29:30] Sometimes it's suspected. [29:31] One of the big key ones was an Australian case I'm sure you're familiar with. [29:35] That was one of the big key ones. [29:36] But it's not always the case that they're charged with anything. [29:39] Lots of them are just suspected of this. [29:40] The same way that the United States is suspected. [29:43] Hold on. [29:44] There was just an IDF security official, Aleksandrovich, who just got charged, caught in a bust, and he [29:49] fled over there. [29:50] He's gone. [29:51] Of course. [29:52] Give me a comparable story this year. [29:53] You can find the same thing. [29:55] Show me the Catholic Church. [29:56] Show me the Catholic Church finding a pedophile and saying, come to the Catholic Church. [29:59] They moved them to other churches. [30:01] What are you talking about? [30:02] So allow them to continue to offend hundreds of thousands of cases. [30:05] So show me. [30:06] Show me one name. [30:07] I'm supposed to remember every name of every bishop? [30:09] I just gave you one name in the last year. [30:11] Tom Aleksandrovich. [30:12] IDF security official. [30:13] Are you denying that the Catholic Church doesn't move around pedophiles? [30:15] No. [30:16] I just said they do. [30:17] I can talk about the Catholic Church all day long. [30:18] Then why are you arguing? [30:19] But we're talking about the Trump administration dealing with the Epstein files. [30:22] That's what we're talking about. [30:23] So as we're diving into the Epstein files, give me your biggest piece of proof that Donald [30:28] Trump in any way knew about any pedophilia. [30:30] And name actual names of people who you're willing to say are pedophiles in that administration. [30:36] Go ahead. [30:37] Okay. [30:38] I never made either one of those claims. [30:39] Exactly. [30:40] But I will respond to your question. [30:41] Howard Lutnick lied when he said he hadn't been to the island since he found out. [30:44] He got caught lying. [30:45] He took his family there. [30:46] This was after Epstein had already been a convicted pedophile. [30:50] Now if Donald Trump wants to claim he has plausible deniability as far as Epstein's activities [30:55] are concerned, I suppose that's fair enough. [30:56] Are you even claiming that guy's a pedophile? [30:58] Well, you know what? [31:00] If you want to talk about the things Trump has said about his daughter at Banca, we can [31:03] talk about Donald Trump. [31:04] Answer the question. [31:05] Hold on a second. [31:06] Are you going to call that guy a pedophile or no? [31:07] Have I called Trump a pedophile once? [31:09] This is why I'm getting clarification on this. [31:11] The answer is no. [31:12] The reason I'm getting clarification is because on the Epstein files, people refuse to separate [31:17] mythology from fact. [31:20] And there's a lot of mythology here. [31:22] And this mythology that you guys continuously talk about that Trump is in some way associated [31:27] with this global cabal of satanic pedophiles, but you never name names. [31:31] You never give evidence. [31:32] Your only evidence is they don't give us evidence. [31:34] Why would you trust the evidence that these people give you anyway? [31:36] Why would you even trust that anyway? [31:38] You don't trust them, the evidence that they've given you so far. [31:42] So why is it always the demand is like, I want endless evidence of a thing that I always make, [31:46] we always make claims about, but can never demonstrate. [31:48] Why? [31:49] So Trump is obviously maybe mentioned more than anyone else in the files. [31:54] If you want to claim that he has nothing to show illegal in the files, that's fine. [31:58] Howard Lutnick, however, lied when he said he hadn't been there. [32:01] He is still in the Trump administration. [32:04] He was just running point for their meeting at the Oval Office just last week. [32:09] And he's in the files taking his kids to Epstein Island. [32:11] So would you take your kids to Epstein Island? [32:13] Well, okay, so are you saying at the time, there was media scrutiny that this was a pedophilic [32:19] island? [32:20] Yes. [32:21] 100%. [32:22] Epstein had already been charged. [32:23] He'd already been to jail. [32:24] Are you saying this guy took his kids to the island to get him raped? [32:25] I don't know what he took his kids to the island for. [32:27] He denied it. [32:28] By the way, again, by the way, this again is absence of evidence means that that's evidence. [32:35] That's not evidence. [32:36] No, no, no. [32:37] You guys never will actually name. [32:38] Hold on. [32:39] Did Howard Lutnick go to the island? [32:40] I'm not sure. [32:41] He's in the files. [32:42] He took his kids. [32:43] I'm not sure on that particular. [32:44] But it's irrelevant, the particular, because even if I grant the particular, you won't [32:48] actually call the guy a pedo because you don't have evidence. [32:52] You never have evidence. [32:53] Just claims. [32:54] Claim, claim, claim, claim, claim. [32:56] No evidence for it. [32:57] Now, I'm willing to cede a bunch of points to you. [33:00] If you can show me some evidence of it, happy to do it. [33:02] So, wait a minute, hold on. [33:03] I'm almost done. [33:04] Are you contending? [33:05] Trump was actually right. [33:06] He claimed that the Democrats were going to use the talking point that, you know, Trump's [33:11] a pedophile. [33:12] Trump's covering for pedophiles, the whole nine yards. [33:15] He says, yeah, that's a hoax. [33:17] Whole thing's a damn hoax. [33:19] And it is. [33:20] The whole damn thing is a hoax. [33:21] They've been calling this guy a pedophile. [33:23] You just said he's named in the, how many times is he named in the Epstein files? [33:27] That's a Democrat talking point, but what's he named in the Epstein files for actually [33:32] doing? [33:33] What? [33:34] Well, there are FBI investigations that have some pretty serious claims. [33:38] They never- [33:39] Not credible. [33:40] They literally say not credible. [33:41] That's fine. [33:42] So, we're not here to have a debate over the Epstein files, but I do- [33:44] You brought it up as a reason he's a failure. [33:45] But I do find it odd. [33:46] No, you are the one that brought it up, but I do find it odd that you're going to pretend [33:51] like Howard Lutnick didn't lie about going to the island after Epstein was convicted [33:55] and took his kids. [33:56] I'll even see the point. [33:57] Are you going to tell me- [33:58] Hold on a second. [33:59] It doesn't help your point. [34:00] Are you going to tell me that Donald Trump was not friends with Jeffrey Epstein? [34:06] He was initially friends with Jeffrey Epstein, but he also banned him from his properties. [34:10] That's fine. [34:11] And he might have helped bring him in, too. [34:12] He banned him from his properties, and he was also front and center at pointing out [34:16] to people that Epstein was a creep. [34:19] That's one. [34:20] And two, everything that's mentioned in the files, Michael Tracy has done great work on [34:23] this. [34:24] He's gone through them ad nauseam. [34:25] So have I. [34:26] The claims which are put in there about Trump are ridiculous on their face. [34:30] Hold on a second. [34:31] Hold on a second. [34:32] The claims that people about Trump are noted inside of these files most of the time as [34:36] being not credible at all. [34:37] Here's what's credible. [34:39] Alex Acosta is the one that cut Jeffrey Epstein his sweetheart deal. [34:42] It was so bad of a deal that they had to re-examine it and re-arrest Jeffrey Epstein and put him [34:48] back in jail in New York City. [34:49] Which administration did that happen under? [34:50] Where he was ultimately killed. [34:51] Yeah. [34:52] Which administration did that happen under? [34:53] The Trump administration. [34:54] That's right. [34:55] He got re-arrested under the Trump administration. [34:56] Which is actually starting to look a little more suspicious. [34:57] It's actually starting to look a little more suspicious now. [34:59] What? [35:00] Yeah. [35:01] How is that more suspicious? [35:02] He died in jail. [35:03] What administration? [35:04] How did he die in jail? [35:05] What administration did Acosta? [35:06] Trump's. [35:07] Was he in when he cut the deal? [35:09] He wasn't in office. [35:10] Trump wasn't in office. [35:11] Yeah. [35:12] Acosta was an attorney. [35:13] Whose administration was that under? [35:16] Obama's. [35:17] Obama. [35:18] So, Obama, we have Acosta, goes ahead and gives him the sweetheart deal, right? [35:23] Under Obama. [35:24] Under the Trump administration, they re-arrest Jeffrey Epstein. [35:27] Isn't that amazing? [35:28] The guy protecting the pedophiles. [35:30] So, the person that Trump brought into his administration is the one that cut Jeffrey Epstein [35:36] a sweetheart deal that no pedophile child sex trafficker has ever seen before in their life. [35:41] Such a sweetheart deal they had to re-arrest him again. [35:43] Yeah. [35:44] They have seen it before in their life. [35:45] First of all. [35:46] Whether Trump. [35:47] Hold on. [35:48] He wasn't even accused of pedophilia. [35:49] What he was accused of was localized trafficking in Florida. [35:52] And yes, people have been cut sweetheart deals for that. [35:55] You're full of it. [35:56] Okay. [35:57] So, your stance is. [35:58] What are you talking about? [35:59] So, your stance is Epstein was not a pedophile and there's nothing in the Epstein files. [36:02] Because I don't want to debate this the whole time. [36:03] I didn't say that. [36:04] My stance is that there's bold claims which are made and I can see you running from it. [36:09] I don't blame you for running from the claim. [36:10] This isn't the debate. [36:11] You don't have evidence. [36:12] I can. [36:13] Is it a failure of Trump's or not? [36:14] This is worse. [36:15] Absolutely. [36:16] Absolutely. [36:17] There should be dozens of Epstein arrests. [36:19] It's part of the debate. [36:20] They are literally covering it up. [36:21] Tell me who. [36:22] Exactly. [36:23] They've redacted the names. [36:24] They've redacted the names. [36:25] Who should we be arresting? [36:26] Exactly. [36:27] What does that mean? [36:28] I'd love to know. [36:29] Why are all the names redacted from the files? [36:30] Why haven't they given us all the files? [36:31] I'll tell you. [36:32] I'll actually tell you. [36:33] And if you had done your due diligence, you would know this. [36:34] Oh, because they're victims. [36:35] Advocacy groups and lawyers have tied this thing up like nobody's business. [36:40] And again, Michael Tracy's done the research on this. [36:42] And no pedophiles go to jail. [36:43] Which pedophiles should go to jail? [36:45] The ones that they've redacted. [36:46] What are their names? [36:47] So Epstein trafficked kids to no one. [36:49] No, Epstein was getting kids. [36:52] So Epstein. [36:53] He was trafficking kids to him. [36:55] Okay. [36:56] So Epstein raped all the kids. [36:57] No one else did. [36:58] Name a single person he trafficked to get to. [36:59] They're all redacted from the files. [37:01] What are you talking about? [37:02] The files don't even indicate that. [37:03] You can see in the emails, he says, I have girls. [37:06] How old do you want them? [37:07] I have girls. [37:08] I don't like yellow. [37:09] I want Russian. [37:10] It's all right there. [37:11] That's not him. [37:12] There's nothing to do with pedophilia. [37:14] As far as you know, show me some evidence. [37:16] So as far as you know, it does. [37:17] Wait a second. [37:18] Absence of evidence is not evidence. [37:20] Do you agree with that? [37:21] No. [37:22] I'm using your logic against you. [37:23] If you're saying it doesn't prove anything. [37:24] My logic works for me and not for you. [37:25] Okay. [37:26] So I'll accept this because I don't want to debate. [37:28] So Epstein was not a pedophile. [37:29] He was not trafficking children to anybody. [37:31] He was not friends with Trump. [37:32] I'm willing to see that Trump. [37:33] They're not covering up the files. [37:35] I'm willing to see the distinction between the mythology [37:37] of Epstein trafficking children to all of these various pedophiles [37:41] is a mythology. [37:42] I'm also willing to see that Epstein himself may very well have been a pedophile, [37:46] but it seemed like the trafficking was going to him. [37:48] And you have no proof to the alternative of that. [37:51] And even when you point at Acosta, this happens under Obama. [37:54] Rearrested under Trump. [37:56] Trump's the only one who released any Epstein files at all. [37:59] Signed in the Epstein Transparency Act. [38:01] Congress also pushed forward. [38:02] After they redacted them for weeks, they still haven't released everything. [38:05] Because of victims. [38:06] They still haven't released everything, by the way. [38:08] How would Trump unredact them? [38:09] Can you explain that to me? [38:10] Well, they shouldn't be redacted at all. [38:11] Yeah, but how would Trump unredact them? [38:13] Well, it's actually pretty easy. [38:15] I think he calls them and says, hey, unredact these things. [38:18] No, no, no. [38:19] That's the judicial branch. [38:20] That's a different branch of government. [38:21] And he can call them and tell them to do that. [38:22] Trump's allowed to do that with classified documents. [38:24] Not allowed to do that with redactions. [38:26] Those redactions are going through the judiciary. [38:28] So what should Trump do here? [38:30] He can easily de-class, he can easily release everything. [38:32] They're not classified. [38:33] They're redacted. [38:34] Then why aren't they released? [38:35] He did release them. [38:36] Not all of them. [38:37] He released millions of documents. [38:38] Not all of them. [38:39] And not only that, again, how would he get them unredacted? [38:41] Tell me. [38:42] Not even all of them. [38:43] They're not even all released. [38:44] Tell me how he would get them unredacted. [38:45] How? [38:46] It's very simple. [38:47] You bring out the investigators and you simply read the names that are redacted. [38:50] That's all you got to do. [38:51] You mean like they did in front of a press club and those poor guys who weren't actually [38:54] pedophiles got calls and threats and everything else? [38:56] That happened to one guy. [38:57] Yeah. [38:58] That happened to one guy. [38:59] That's reading the names of people who aren't even related to it. [39:02] This is the problem, man. [39:03] This is good. [39:04] So you're satisfied with the Epstein files? [39:05] I didn't say satisfied, but I'm pointing out that I'm not willing to make claims that [39:10] Donald Trump's a bad guy based on redactions that he's not responsible for. [39:15] You can't tell me how he should unredact them. [39:17] You can't tell me who the victims are. [39:18] It's very simple. [39:19] I want all the files. [39:20] Show me all the files. [39:21] What do you mean the victims go in front of Congress every freaking day? [39:23] I only want to jump in just because given that we have only 40 minutes for the open dialogue, [39:28] though this is, it's been epic so far. [39:31] I just want to be sure if there are other topics you want to cover. [39:33] We have 28 minutes left. [39:35] Yeah, yeah. [39:36] But can we move on to the economy? [39:37] I would say the Epstein files is a debacle and a disaster for President Trump. [39:41] The releasing of the Epstein files was a debacle. [39:44] I agree with that. [39:46] The problem is, is that what I'll never accept is lack of evidence being evidence of a thing. [39:52] And while you pretend that there's a global pedophilic ring that you have no evidence of controlling the United States, [39:58] I can show you a global pedophilic ring which exists right out in the open that Trump's blowing up right now. [40:02] So Epstein didn't put a bunch of security cameras in all of his places. [40:06] That didn't happen. [40:07] He wasn't working with Maxwell, the daughter of the top. [40:11] Yes, he worked with Lane Maxwell. [40:13] Yes, there were security cameras in his various places. [40:16] All of that is correct. [40:17] That's, again, you're asking questions. [40:19] That's called evidence. [40:20] Not providing evidence. [40:21] So why does he do that for? [40:22] Wait, there's cameras here. [40:24] What's that evidence of? [40:25] This is an event. [40:26] This is a televised event. [40:27] Yeah, but what's that evidence of? [40:28] Who is Epstein televising what's going on in his room? [40:30] He wasn't televising anybody. [40:31] Got any proof? [40:32] So why are there cameras installed? [40:34] Because the same reason. [40:35] Rich people have cameras all over their houses? [40:37] So he has them in all of his bedroom secret cameras? [40:39] What secret cameras? [40:40] Can you show them? [40:41] Yeah, they're in the emails. [40:42] He literally hired IDF security people to put secret cameras in all of his rooms. [40:45] No, no, no. [40:46] He had a damn security room with monitors in his mansions. [40:50] You're talking about one specific instance in one specific room, by the way. [40:54] Not on all of his properties and not in the Florida properties. [40:57] And those are the ones where he got convicted of all these things. [40:59] So what are you talking about? [41:01] You're talking about a completely unrelated thing to what I'm asking you. [41:05] Do you have evidence that Trump was part of a global pedophilic ring or that anybody was? [41:11] Yes. [41:12] Absolutely. [41:13] Give me your best piece. [41:14] The Epstein files. [41:15] Best piece in the Epstein files. [41:17] The whole freaking thing. [41:18] What are you talking about? [41:19] Nothing. [41:20] Nothing. [41:21] Okay, so hold on. [41:22] So was Epstein convicted? [41:23] Not of pedophilia. [41:24] Yes, he was. [41:25] Okay, who? [41:26] Was Maxwell convicted? [41:27] I'm sorry. [41:28] I'm sorry. [41:29] When was Jeffrey Epstein convicted of pedophilia? [41:31] Epstein. [41:32] Jail. [41:33] Maxwell. [41:34] Jail. [41:35] Two of them committed suicide in jail. [41:36] When was Epstein convicted of pedophilia? [41:38] I think whatever the first charge was, was it 2007 in Florida? [41:42] He wasn't convicted for pedophilia. [41:44] That wasn't pedophilia. [41:46] Traffic in children isn't pedophilia? [41:47] First of all. [41:48] So now you're saying Epstein wasn't a pedophile? [41:49] He was doing underage. [41:50] There was one or two of the underage prostitutes that came from the school. [41:54] That's true. [41:55] So that's underage? [41:56] I think they were 16, 17. [41:58] Not prepubescent children. [41:59] It's a whole different ballgame. [42:00] He wasn't convicted of pedophilia. [42:02] Okay, so Epstein wasn't a pedophile. [42:04] Glad we got there. [42:05] I didn't say Epstein wasn't a pedophile. [42:06] I said you haven't given us any proof he is. [42:08] You got some? [42:09] Yeah, there's no proof Epstein wasn't a pedophile. [42:11] Oh, I'm going to use an argument from incredulity. [42:13] He killed himself in jail. [42:14] Nothing to see here. [42:15] And we should probably pardon Maxwell, too, at this rate. [42:17] I'm totally incredulous, but I have no evidence of my claims. [42:20] Just because the economy is another topic we might want to cover still while we have time. [42:24] We do still have about 25 minutes. [42:27] Anyway, so I try to operate off a facts basis. [42:31] What happened, I'll just sum this up real quick, and then I'll give you the last word on it, to be fair. [42:35] I'll just summarize it very quickly on Epstein. [42:38] Epstein very well could have been a pedophile, and likely was himself a pedophile. [42:43] But when you make these claims about demonic global pedophile rings which control the United States, yeah, I want some fucking evidence. [42:49] I do. [42:50] And I'm not willing to throw the President of the United States that I voted for under the bus without any evidence. [42:55] I'm not. [42:56] So, you know, if you want to tie it off, you can. [42:58] Well, I'll just say we also saw in the Democrat emails spirit cookings and children in the hot tub for entertainment. [43:05] Oh, my God. [43:06] But there's no evidence of pedophile rings or anything bad. [43:07] I'm sure none of it happens. [43:08] You're talking about Podesta spirit cooking? [43:09] I'm sure none of it happens. [43:10] The big art project spirit cooking? [43:11] That's right. [43:12] That's right. [43:13] That's right. [43:14] Yes. [43:15] The massive art project for spirit cooking along with how about we talk about rocket pizza? [43:20] Did they have babies underneath there, Owen? [43:22] Did they have children in the basement, Owen? [43:24] This is a good opportunity to go into the economy. [43:27] Yeah. [43:28] All right. [43:29] So moving into this, I just got a single question for you. [43:33] Owen, how would eliminating mass migration into a net negative not cause economic downturn or higher prices? [43:41] How is that even possible? [43:42] Well, it's actually there's a simpler fix to that. [43:45] And that is you have to cut taxes. [43:47] You have to cut them significantly. [43:48] You have to cut them immediately. [43:50] Americans are paying roughly 30% of the money that they make plus the property that they own. [43:56] That number needs to be single digits tops. [43:59] And a lot of Americans will have a little more money to take care of their bills and take care of their family. [44:04] But we're not really having that happen. [44:07] Now, I feel like this whole argument is assuming that Americans don't want these jobs. [44:12] I don't know. [44:13] It's assuming they do. [44:14] In fact, my argument to you is just I'll simply state it. [44:17] If it's the case that we bring in, I don't know, 100,000 immigrants tomorrow to California, let's say. [44:22] And they're willing to take $10 an hour less than the Americans who are there. [44:28] Would you agree with me that that'll probably save you prices and goods and services from whatever that corporation is or company? [44:35] Probably, yeah. [44:37] Probably. [44:38] So like if you took McDonald's and you paid them $25 an hour, your cheeseburger is going to get more expensive. [44:43] Do you agree with that? [44:44] So you can offset that with immigrant labor. [44:46] Do you agree that that's likely true? [44:48] Yes, but I don't believe that's the solution. [44:50] I agree with you. [44:51] But if it is, in fact, the case that Trump is doing his job, which it seems like he is since we have negative net migration, [44:58] why wouldn't it be the case that if we're deporting all of these illegals and they're self-deporting at an overwhelming rate, [45:04] of course your localized food prices are going to go up because most of these jobs are now going to Americans. [45:09] In fact, this is exactly what Cato is saying. [45:12] They're saying we're getting hurt mostly in the economy because Trump is not even letting legal immigrants come in. [45:18] I thought that was what we wanted, man. [45:20] We want to stop that legal and illegal immigration. [45:23] But it's like not if your fried chicken is going to go up 30 cents. [45:27] What are you talking about? [45:28] We want that, right? [45:29] Well, the deportation numbers are not where they need to be. [45:33] I don't know how much that falls into the economic realm of things. [45:37] Obama deported more people than Trump. [45:39] There was a lot more people to deport. [45:40] But I think that there's other reasons for that. [45:43] I think that this gets into the, let's say, failures at the Department of Justice, [45:47] which maybe they're just starting to get into with the SPLC. [45:50] But I don't know. [45:51] We'll see about that if we come back to that. [45:54] We're being told as Americans, hey, buck up and pay more for gas. [45:58] It's this war in Iran. [46:00] You've got to buck up. [46:01] It's your patriotic duty to pay more for gas. [46:03] That is a war that's being fought in the foreign and special interests. [46:06] Do you think Americans might be willing, instead of paying another extra dollar per gallon of gasoline, [46:12] maybe an extra 10 cents for a cheeseburger if they know that that means Americans are taking the job? [46:17] I mean, that's essentially what we're being asked. [46:18] But most Americans don't know that because even people on my side are running around saying, [46:22] Trump's not deporting enough people, even though we have a net negative in migration right now. [46:26] Well, we do have a closed border. [46:27] Those jobs, yes, a closed border and net negative migration, legal and illegal. [46:32] More people are leaving than coming. [46:34] That's for the first time. [46:35] We finally got that. [46:36] It's like, yeah, prices are going to go up from that. [46:38] You know this. [46:39] Why not be honest with people? [46:40] Well, prices went up from- [46:41] If that's the case- [46:42] And then we're talking about gas. [46:43] Hang on, I'm almost done. [46:44] Prices went up from tariffs. [46:45] Prices went up from energy. [46:46] You want to get into tariffs? [46:47] We can do that in a second. [46:48] But let's start with the gas prices. [46:49] All you're doing is pitting Trump against Trump. [46:52] On the Biden level, at his top, do you know what the gas prices were? [46:56] About right where they're at now? [46:57] Nope. [46:58] Way more. [46:59] They were over $5.50. [47:00] Yeah, they're a dollar cheaper right now at the peak of Trump than they were at the peak of Biden. [47:04] So you're only comparing Trump's gas prices to Trump's gas prices. [47:09] Because if you compare them to the Democrat, they were still way higher. [47:12] I mean, way higher. [47:13] But when did the price go up? [47:15] Speculation, mostly. [47:17] No. [47:18] Oh, I thought you said why did the price go up? [47:20] No, when did the price go up? [47:21] Well, the price has been going up steadily and decreasing steadily. [47:24] Since we attacked Iran. [47:25] Yes, correct. [47:26] Due to what? [47:27] Market speculation. [47:28] And you can't control speculators and neither can Trump. [47:30] It's not because we have some shortage of oil. [47:33] Where's our shortage? [47:34] Nowhere. [47:35] We're not getting oil from Iran. [47:36] We don't even have the processors for their oil. [47:39] That goes to China. [47:40] So we have no shortage, but our oil prices go up. [47:43] Why? [47:44] Because of speculation. [47:45] And you just completely omit that. [47:46] Not only do you omit that, but you omit this other part, which is you still haven't explained how it is that we're going to have net negative migration and prices aren't going to go up. [47:55] They are. [47:56] Hold on a second. [47:57] Trump is the one that claimed that he could get gas prices down. [47:59] He did. [48:00] He's the one that made that claim. [48:01] And he did. [48:02] They're lower than Biden's peak by a dollar. [48:03] No. [48:05] No. [48:06] Yes. [48:07] Okay. [48:08] But we don't even know if we've seen Trump's peak. [48:09] If this war in Iran doesn't end. [48:10] Well, you can't just say, well, I'm incredulous. [48:13] They may go up more. [48:14] They're actually going down. [48:15] They've been going down steadily. [48:16] Gas prices are going down? [48:17] Yes. [48:18] They're going to be going down. [48:19] Yes. [48:20] And speculators, by the way, are speculating that, which is why they're going to be going down. [48:24] Interestingly enough, we're talking about oil prices, though, and gas prices. [48:27] At Biden's peak, they were a dollar more than they are the national average right this second, [48:30] as we're talking. [48:31] I even made sure this morning before we came in, just to be sure. [48:35] And yes, that is, in fact, the case. [48:37] So it's like you're only comparing Trump to Trump. [48:40] And even with him blowing the shit out of pedophiles in Iran, like the Ayatollah Khomeini, [48:44] he still managed to give you a dollar cheaper gas than Joe Biden did. [48:47] But you just said it wasn't Trump. [48:52] You just said it was the speculators. [48:54] Now you're giving credit to Trump. [48:55] So I don't know what, you know, I'd like a little consistency. [48:57] Okay. [48:58] So wait a second. [48:59] So you're going to blame it on Trump instead of the speculators. [49:02] But when I say even under those circumstances, it's a dollar cheaper, that can't be because of Trump. [49:07] Let's be clear. [49:08] No, no, no. [49:09] Here's my metric. [49:10] I want the consistency. [49:11] Here's my metric. [49:12] Trump said on his campaign he would get gas prices down. [49:14] He did. [49:15] He hasn't done it. [49:16] Yes, he has. [49:17] He's even admitted that we had to take a detour off of America First to do this war. [49:21] He said it's over. [49:22] It's not a war. [49:23] He has gotten the gas prices down. [49:25] What are you talking about? [49:26] Gas prices have gone up since we started the war. [49:27] Yes, gas prices went up when we started the war due to market speculation. [49:30] So Trump started a war and now gas prices are higher. [49:33] That's the fact. [49:34] Yeah, but you're only comparing Trump to Trump. [49:35] And if you're going to compare him to Biden, gas is still cheaper than the Democrats. [49:38] I'm comparing this administration to this administration. [49:40] Exactly. [49:41] Gas prices have gone up since he started this war. [49:43] Yes, and if you follow Trump's plan, gas prices are likely going to bottom out. [49:47] Because he has control over oil there. [49:49] That's a nice hope. [49:50] Control over oil in Venezuela. [49:51] That's a nice hope. [49:52] He has control over all of it. [49:53] The Venezuela oil won't be ready for probably months. [49:56] But we still have control of it. [49:57] What did I say? [49:58] The future will go down. [49:59] Why? [50:00] I hope that's the case. [50:01] I hope that's the case. [50:02] But that's not the case right now. [50:03] And Americans are struggling financially. [50:04] And now here we are in another war in the Middle East and we're sick of it. [50:06] Are you going to blame market speculators? [50:08] I'm going to blame Trump for getting us into another war on Israel's behalf. [50:12] Yes, I am going to blame Trump for that. [50:13] He did that. [50:14] So help me out here. [50:15] Can you tell me all of the downsides of Donald Trump killing pedophiles in the Middle East? [50:22] First of all, do you know every single person? [50:25] Were those schoolgirls pedophiles? [50:27] It's institutionalized in the Iranian constitution. [50:30] No, no. [50:31] Were the 200 schoolgirls pedophiles? [50:32] Want to make sure that they're alive so they didn't get raped? [50:35] But that aside, no, of course not. [50:37] But there's going to be deaths inside of a war. [50:40] Okay, so it is a war. [50:41] Yeah, I didn't say it wasn't a war. [50:42] Does he need congressional approval? [50:43] I'm not going to quibble over the word, even though there's no ground invasion, [50:46] there's no boots on the ground, there's none of that. [50:48] I just want to know, how is the global interest served? [50:50] You're so concerned about pedophiles. [50:51] He killed one of the most major ones who's ever existed since the late 1970s. [50:56] Well, he was friends with S.D. [50:58] He put it inside of the Constitution of Iran that you can marry nine-year-old girls, dude. [51:03] And by the way, Khomeini was married to a 15-year-old. [51:08] Perhaps by the lunar cycle could have been 14. [51:10] His son was married to a 14 or 15-year-old. [51:12] A lot of his high command were married to children as well. [51:15] Trump killed all of them. [51:16] All of them without a single boot on the ground. [51:18] Great. [51:19] And I'm sure after we've killed thousands of Iranians, including young schoolgirls and the entire family, [51:28] I'm sure that the Iranians are going to be less radicalized because of that. [51:31] So I'm not mad. [51:32] Radicalized? [51:33] What do you mean? [51:34] How do you get more radicalized than marrying children, dude? [51:36] What do you think they're going to stop? [51:37] What are you talking about? [51:38] You think they're going to stop? [51:39] No. [51:40] Well, I'm just saying, how do you get more radical? [51:42] You're like, oh, the Iranians are going to get more radicalized than marrying kids. [51:45] Like, oh, the United States blowing up the pedophiles is going to really make them mad. [51:48] Hold on. [51:49] Hold on. [51:50] How many countries has Iran been bombing this year? [51:53] Well, Iran is a state sponsor of terrorism. [51:55] You agree with that. [51:56] And is Israel a state sponsor of terrorism? [51:57] I think that Israel has done many terrorist actions. [51:59] Is America a state sponsor of terrorism? [52:00] I don't think that America generally is a state sponsor of terrorism. [52:03] Okay. [52:04] Well, in the Obama administration, it's very well known we were arming moderate rebels [52:08] that turned into ISIS and turned into ISIL. [52:10] In American interests, yes. [52:11] That's correct. [52:12] So America backs these proxy groups. [52:13] The CIA backs these proxy groups all over the planet. [52:14] But that was due to Bush doctrine. [52:15] Most of that was due to- [52:16] And now Trump is Bush. [52:17] Trump has- [52:18] When? [52:19] Where's the forever war? [52:20] We're in the Middle East. [52:21] Not a single boot on the ground. [52:22] We've been in the Middle East, the majority of Trump's administration. [52:24] Is there a single boot on the ground in Iran? [52:25] We have been at a war in Iran since- [52:26] Answer the question, bro. [52:27] Is there a single boot on- [52:29] Yes. [52:30] Okay, where? [52:31] Where? [52:32] We have boots on the ground all over. [52:33] No, in Iran. [52:34] We've got boots on the ground all over. [52:35] No, in Iran. [52:36] We've got boots on the ground all over. [52:37] Where's our invasionary force? [52:38] In the strait. [52:39] We've got people in the strait. [52:40] We're talking about going to Card Island. [52:41] Oh, we had 7,000 people there and now there's 10,000 people there. [52:43] Where's the big invasionary force to take over Iran? [52:46] So, okay, fine. [52:47] I'll tell you what. [52:48] Where's that? [52:49] If they do go into Iran, what will you say then? [52:51] Yeah. [52:52] Well, at that point, I'm done. [52:53] Okay. [52:54] Fair enough. [52:55] Fair enough. [52:56] It is the case, I've drawn the line for myself, that if there's a ground invasion in [52:58] Iran, that would be a continuation- [53:02] What about casualties? [53:03] Hang on, let me finish the point and I'll get to casualties too. [53:06] If it's the case that there's a mass ground invasion of Iran, then yeah, I would have to [53:12] pull support then because that would be a continuation of Bush forever war doctrine. [53:16] However, limited strikes like what we saw in Venezuela or six to eight weeks, which is [53:20] what we're seeing right now, that's not enough to pull my support from this president, [53:24] especially with all of his success in domestic policy. [53:26] Even if I grant you, and I'm not a fan of the war, I'm not an advocate of it. [53:29] But even if I grant it that it's the worst thing he could have possibly done, it's not [53:33] going to change the fact he's been a successful president. [53:36] His domestic policies alone in eliminating crime and mass migration and being a net negative, [53:41] that's what people wanted more than anything. [53:43] It wasn't just the forever wars. [53:44] It was the mass migration. [53:46] That's what Trump always harped on. [53:48] And he's been after it and after it and after it. [53:50] And he did deploy the National Guard to protect these various centers in these cities. [53:55] While ICE was removing these people from the nation, Democrats did everything that they could do to stop him, [54:00] including court cases, terrorism against them and everything else in between. [54:04] So it's like all of those show me that the guy is very successful, even if I grant it to you how bad Iran is. [54:09] Well, I think that they made a major blunder on the deportations because now they're basically stopping them. [54:16] They should have gone after the Democrats first. Quite frankly, they should have been arresting Democrats for treason. [54:20] Alejandro Mayorkas should have been the first arrest. [54:23] He should have been called in front of Congress. [54:25] And you're a little too late going after the SPLC, in my opinion, which is now being, funny enough, [54:33] it's actually being directed at the right. [54:34] They're now using this SPLC thing to claim that anybody that's a dissident on the right is paid for by leftists [54:40] and needs to be censored. [54:41] That seems to be the theme with that. [54:43] But they should have gone after all of these groups right out of the gate, Andrew. [54:46] They should have gone after all the Catholic charity groups, all the Jewish charity groups, all these groups, [54:50] all these groups all along the Rio Grande, all of these groups on the southern border, [54:53] all the Democrats that brought them in, all the Biden administration that brought them in. [54:57] All of them should have been hauled to jail. [54:59] Yeah. And they weren't. [55:00] Except they have due process, Owen. [55:02] And what process have they started? [55:03] They haven't even started the process. [55:04] So how do you know the SPLC? [55:06] Because there's no results. [55:07] Tell me, how long were you aware of the SPLC investigation? [55:10] What are the charges? [55:11] They're all financial crimes. [55:12] Hang on. Hang on. Let's walk through this. [55:13] When were you aware of the SPLC investigation? [55:15] When they released it, right? [55:16] Yes. [55:17] Yeah. So when they released it, you're not aware of what the Trump Justice Department is investigating or not investigating. [55:22] Show me the evidence. [55:23] You're the one who wants to talk about it. [55:24] There's no evidence of your claim. [55:25] Hang on. Hang on. [55:26] Lack of evidence, lack of claim. [55:27] Hang on. Hang on. [55:28] He said multiple times that he wants to bring James Comey up on charges, right? [55:31] He said multiple times that he wants to go after these people. [55:33] Those charges got dropped. [55:34] Instructing his Justice Department to investigate these things, we're finally starting to see the fruit. [55:39] My evidence is we're finally seeing the fruit. [55:41] With the SPLC, I'm guaranteeing you that there's going to be other organizations which are indicted for various things like this. [55:47] This is exactly what it is that you said that you wanted. [55:49] It's at least a step in the right direction. [55:51] No. Hold on a second. [55:52] They've only been charged for financial crimes. [55:53] They need to be charged for treason. [55:54] So was Al Capone. [55:55] They need to be charged for treason. [55:56] Yeah. [55:57] Al Capone, Al Capone was not charged for his mob hits or for bootleading. [56:00] Wait, stop it. [56:01] You're not comparing Al Capone to 15 million invasion of this country. [56:06] It's the case that you go to jail for 15 years. [56:08] Al Capone is more of an American than Mayorkas. [56:10] If you go to jail for 15 years for the crime of murder or to jail for 15 years for the crime of financial, for some type of financial fraud, you can prove the one but not the other. [56:21] Which one would you go after? [56:22] I would go for it all. [56:24] That's what the feds do. [56:25] That's what they did to me. [56:26] No, you wouldn't. [56:27] If you could prove one but not the other, you would go after the one you could prove. [56:29] No, no, no, no. [56:30] They always overcharge so they can get you a plea and get their incarceration rate and get their conviction rate. [56:34] I would know. [56:35] I've been through it before. [56:36] Sure. [56:37] Regardless, we're talking about almost two years into this administration and no deep state arrests. [56:42] None. [56:43] Who do you want to see arrested? [56:44] I just told you Mayorkas. [56:45] There's one. [56:46] How about the Obama administration? [56:47] How about John Brennan? [56:48] How about James Clapper? [56:49] How about James Comey? [56:50] Tell me what your process would be to arrest them. [56:52] Okay. [56:53] First of all, Dan Bongino, who was the deputy director at the FBI, spent eight years, eight [56:59] years writing books and doing a podcast. [57:02] He did. [57:03] All about arresting these people. [57:04] He gets in there and does none of it. [57:06] Yeah. [57:07] The same Dan Bongino who talked about what was going on in the Epstein files ad nauseum, [57:10] how none of it made sense. [57:11] And then changed his mind. [57:12] Because he went in and saw it. [57:13] Here's what's funny. [57:14] Why would anybody ever want to go work for the Trump administration from the private sector, [57:17] especially somebody like Dan Bongino. [57:19] If it's the case that he goes in, looks at the evidence, reviews it and says, actually, [57:22] I got this wrong. [57:23] And you guys fucking crucify him for it. [57:25] You crucify him for saying, look, I got this wrong. [57:29] And it's like, why would anybody ever want to go work for the Trump administration if [57:32] that's going to be the case, Owen? [57:33] Imagine that. [57:34] You give us a little peek into what's going on in the Epstein files and it makes people [57:39] even more aware and more suspicious. [57:41] And then you say there's no there there. [57:43] Anything. [57:44] Our peek at the Epstein files showed us that there is something serious there. [57:49] Very serious. [57:50] Look, not only have you never provided any evidence for that, but your other problem is [57:54] you didn't actually answer my question. [57:56] What incentivization would like, let's say Trump drafted you to go to his administration [58:01] to investigate these things and you went in good faith and you did. [58:04] And you came back and you were like, look, I took a look at all this evidence and I was [58:08] wrong about this. [58:09] And then all of your friends and cohorts and everybody else who was cheering you on fucking [58:13] crucified you for it. [58:14] You know what, Andrew? [58:15] It's funny that you say that because that's literally happening to me right now. [58:18] From who? [58:19] That's literally happening to me from this new MAGA right cult. [58:22] Who? [58:23] I already did this. [58:24] I already put my time in. [58:25] I was arrested. [58:26] Who's crucifying you for it? [58:27] Hold on a second. [58:28] Hold on a second. [58:29] For four different times I was arrested for supporting Trump. [58:32] Okay. [58:33] All incorrect by the way. [58:34] Now, you like Trump. [58:35] I don't like Trump. [58:36] Now, beyond the point, I already went through that crucible. [58:39] I already put my face, my name, my neck out there. [58:42] And it's not even that I necessarily did it for Trump. [58:43] I did it for the truth because I believe Trump was innocent and I wanted to support him. [58:47] But how are you being crucified? [58:49] I have MAGA people putting me on lists. [58:51] What lists? [58:52] I have MAGA people doxing me. [58:53] I have MAGA people sending people to my house. [58:55] I have Laura Loomer in my box all day telling me she's telling Trump to compete and post negatively about me. [59:00] That was typified. [59:01] Trump posted something about me. [59:03] He told me to shut the fuck up. [59:04] So I got arrested four times for this guy, spent months in prison for this guy, did everything for this guy. [59:10] Censored, lawsuit, everything. [59:12] Lost all my social media, kept supporting him. [59:14] And then what is the one recognition I get from him? [59:16] Fuck you, shut up. [59:17] I don't even care. [59:18] I did it because it's the truth. [59:19] And now the truth is this administration has turned against us. [59:22] MAGA has now been weaponized against us. [59:25] And Trump is now the very globalist that we were supposed to get out of the White House. [59:29] This is ironically hilarious. [59:31] So the first thing that you claim, you say, hey, look, I was crucified for my support of Donald Trump by Democrats. [59:38] Do you agree it was by Democrats? [59:40] Well, actually, first it was by Republicans because we were going up against... [59:44] Never Trumpers. [59:45] Yeah. [59:46] Like you are right now. [59:47] Never Trumpers. [59:48] I voted for him three times. [59:49] Anyway, what happened is... [59:50] Well, now you're like, ah, he's the worst thing ever. [59:52] No, I'm saying he's failed. [59:53] This administration has failed. [59:54] He hasn't failed. [59:55] And when you're talking about this, Democrats were the ones who persecuted you. [59:57] Democrats were the ones who threw you in jail. [59:59] They were the ones who didn't want to give you a fair trial. [1:00:02] Me and my wife, we advocated for the release of J6ers everywhere that we possibly could, yourself included. [1:00:06] And I will give Trump that. [1:00:07] Okay? [1:00:08] That is the biggest victory. [1:00:09] Yeah, huge victory. [1:00:10] I would never regret voting for Trump because he did that. [1:00:11] Yeah, huge victory. [1:00:12] Okay? [1:00:13] But not only that, let's dive into this a little bit deeper. [1:00:15] When you're talking about your supposed crucifixion now by the right, Trump hasn't shut down your channels. [1:00:22] He hasn't done any of that. [1:00:24] Under Biden, that was a sure thing to have happened. [1:00:26] Well, let's not be so sure that's not going to happen soon. [1:00:28] You say gonna. [1:00:29] Hasn't, though. [1:00:30] Okay? [1:00:31] Under Biden, it was a sure thing. [1:00:32] Isn't that the whole point? [1:00:33] Is none of this stuff has happened under Trump and you're saying, oh, but it could. [1:00:35] It's like, that's the point. [1:00:36] Under Biden, no, it's not. [1:00:37] Under Biden, it would have for sure. [1:00:39] He was working with Facebook and these other groups in order to shut down people who had podcasts. [1:00:43] You have a voice right now. [1:00:44] That's true. [1:00:45] The President of the United States might have told you to shut the fuck up, but he still gave you a platform. [1:00:49] Tell him to shut his fucking mouth. [1:00:50] That's the distinction. [1:00:51] No, Trump did not. [1:00:52] That's the First Amendment. [1:00:53] That is the First Amendment. [1:00:54] It was given to us by the founding fathers. [1:00:56] Well, Biden didn't give a fuck about the First Amendment. [1:00:58] And neither does Trump. [1:00:59] Because he was working with the tech companies to shut you down. [1:01:00] And neither does Trump. [1:01:01] Trump doesn't care either. [1:01:02] They'll censor us under Trump. [1:01:03] They already did. [1:01:04] He did nothing. [1:01:05] Where? [1:01:06] Where? [1:01:07] When did I get censored? [1:01:08] What year? [1:01:09] I was censored under Trump one. [1:01:10] I was censored from 2018 to 2022. [1:01:12] Show me what policy of Trump's administration censored you. [1:01:15] What? [1:01:16] What did he do for it? [1:01:17] What did he do to end the censor? [1:01:18] That's different. [1:01:19] You've got to make a distinction. [1:01:20] No, no, no. [1:01:21] You're the one making claims that Trump did something for me. [1:01:23] Yes, he did. [1:01:24] I'm not asking Trump to do anything for me. [1:01:25] He did. [1:01:26] I'm saying that he had censorship under Trump. [1:01:27] We instructed his Department of Justice to stop putting pressure on Facebook and these [1:01:32] other groups for censorship. [1:01:33] He promised he would do that. [1:01:34] But that is happening. [1:01:35] He did do it. [1:01:36] That's why he just brokered the deal to give the Ellisons everything so that they can censor [1:01:39] the internet in favor of this war and foreign policy that's unpopular. [1:01:42] Where is that happening? [1:01:43] Right now. [1:01:44] Where? [1:01:45] It just happened with TikTok. [1:01:46] It just happened with Paramount. [1:01:47] No. [1:01:48] TikTok, they talk about the war constantly. [1:01:49] I know. [1:01:50] I'm on TikTok arguing with them constantly. [1:01:51] Ellison and Oracle are about to have all these databases. [1:01:53] They're going to sell all of private information. [1:01:54] In the future soon. [1:01:55] But you've been wrong about futures before. [1:01:57] And by the way. [1:01:58] Oh, wait a second. [1:01:59] Right now. [1:02:00] Okay. [1:02:01] Hold on a second. [1:02:02] I'm talking about right now. [1:02:04] Hold on a second. [1:02:05] When Doge ended and then Musk called the Epstein files a hoax and then struck Iran, I was called [1:02:11] a panicking. [1:02:12] I was called a panicking because I knew it meant we were getting into a war with Iran and [1:02:15] a regime change war with Iran. [1:02:16] I was called a panicking. [1:02:17] I was called a panicking because if he did this, the MAGA coalition would be destroyed. [1:02:21] And I was called a panicking because I said, if he does this, we're going to lose the midterms. [1:02:23] And now all three things of those have happened. [1:02:26] Except every single one. [1:02:27] You were also wrong about Venezuela. [1:02:28] What was I wrong about Venezuela? [1:02:30] In Venezuela, you said that there's a good chance there that we're going to be bogged down [1:02:33] on a war. [1:02:34] Never said that. [1:02:35] You did too. [1:02:36] No, I did not. [1:02:37] You said it on your show. [1:02:38] Yes, you did. [1:02:39] No, I did not. [1:02:40] You said there was a good shot there. [1:02:41] You were in the debate when you said it, in fact, with a collar. [1:02:42] Good shot there would be bogged down as well. [1:02:43] What are you talking about? [1:02:44] That's what's funny to me. [1:02:45] It's like every time I dive in to your view, it's always, well, down the road, he's going to [1:02:51] do these bad things. [1:02:52] Down the road, he's going to do this. [1:02:53] Trump's administration hasn't censored you. [1:02:55] Trump's administration didn't jail you. [1:02:57] Trump's administration didn't do any of that. [1:02:58] You just gave him credit for getting you released. [1:03:00] And not only that, again, we're talking about the economics of this thing. [1:03:04] We diverted into this, which is fine. [1:03:06] I think that speech is something that we need to debate about. [1:03:08] But when we're talking about the economics, you still haven't actually told us how it [1:03:12] is that you, Owen Schroer, are going to make an offset for net negative migration [1:03:17] without prices going up. [1:03:18] There's going to be- [1:03:19] Cut taxes. [1:03:20] That's an adjustment period. [1:03:21] You can cut taxes in a year. [1:03:23] Do you think that prices are going to immediately decrease because you cut taxes? [1:03:27] Prices don't have to decrease. [1:03:28] You have more money in your wallet. [1:03:29] You have more money in your bank account. [1:03:31] You're not paying it to the government. [1:03:32] Again, those are adjustment periods that are incremental. [1:03:35] So if you cut taxes immediately- [1:03:36] Takes one year. [1:03:37] Takes one year. [1:03:38] And by the way, Trump doesn't unilaterally have the power to do that. [1:03:41] He doesn't unilaterally have the power to just cut taxes. [1:03:43] That has to go through Congress. [1:03:45] And so this idea that you have, one thing he did do and he did do well unilaterally with [1:03:50] his executive orders was with migration. [1:03:52] And he did get us to the point where we're at a net negative. [1:03:55] A net negative of migration. [1:03:57] Who would ever have given us that? [1:04:00] Who? [1:04:01] Who out of anybody in the field would ever have given us net negative migration? [1:04:05] If Trump has a positive, it's definitely on the migration issue. [1:04:07] But it's not perfect. [1:04:08] He's still giving Chinese students- [1:04:10] He's still letting Chinese students into these universities to save their ass. [1:04:14] He's still letting the H-1B- [1:04:15] And a 50% decrease of the H-1Bs. [1:04:17] The Cato Institute recently said, in fact, cut down 136,000. [1:04:21] 50% of the H-1Bs eliminated under Trump's policy. [1:04:26] So yeah, it's true. [1:04:27] Chinese immigrants can still come in and study under H-1B visas. [1:04:30] 50% less of them. [1:04:32] That's correct. [1:04:34] So don't you think that there should be an adjustment period, just like you said with taxes? [1:04:38] Shouldn't there be an adjustment period for hiring Americans? [1:04:40] Because what happened was the farmers, agriculture, all these big businesses said, [1:04:44] Trump, we have to have this cheap migrant labor. [1:04:47] That's correct, yes. [1:04:48] And so he caved and he let the donors get what they want. [1:04:51] That's what Trump does. [1:04:52] This is a donor class administration. [1:04:54] In this case, not only did he not cave, but the opposite happened. [1:04:57] What are you talking about? [1:04:58] He's doing mass deportation still? [1:05:00] No, no, no. [1:05:01] He gave subsidies. [1:05:02] And yes, not only has there been big time deportations, but it's border crossings. [1:05:07] It's just new ones even coming in versus self-deporting is an amazing feature at a net negative. [1:05:13] Same with immigration internationally, which means legal immigration. [1:05:18] So, yeah, he did deal with them with subsidies that was designed to keep the prices down. [1:05:22] But again, if we follow your policy, which would be mine, you want them all out, right? [1:05:27] I want all the Mexicans who are working illegally out of here. [1:05:30] I would say you can't, you know, there's too many, but I would say you have to do at least the 15 that came in under Biden. [1:05:35] Well, you want to get rid of, I want them all gone. [1:05:37] I want all the illegal immigrants gone. [1:05:39] Don't you? [1:05:40] Yeah, I would say so. [1:05:41] So if we get all the illegal immigrants out of California. [1:05:43] But Trump's not doing that. [1:05:44] Hang on. [1:05:45] If we get all the illegal immigrants out of California tomorrow, right? [1:05:48] What happens to the price of produce? [1:05:49] Does it go up or down? [1:05:50] Well, we need an adjustment time, Andrew. [1:05:51] That's my whole point. [1:05:52] We would need an adjustment time. [1:05:54] So we both agree that mass deportations is a failure of the administration. [1:05:57] What you're dealing with right now is an adjustment time due to the... [1:06:00] How is net negative migration a failure? [1:06:02] We're not getting mass deportations. [1:06:04] That's what we're talking about. [1:06:05] You don't have to massively deport. [1:06:06] People aren't coming in, dude. [1:06:07] You don't have to. [1:06:08] They're already here. [1:06:09] Yes. [1:06:10] And by the way, he's going after the criminal elements of those people first, which he's [1:06:13] been doing. [1:06:14] There's a net negative of them crossing into the border. [1:06:16] If you had said day one, day one with any Republican administration, we'd have only a [1:06:21] thousand border crossings a day versus 46,000 border crossings a day. [1:06:24] You'd say it's the biggest fucking success anybody had ever seen. [1:06:27] How about this? [1:06:28] Somehow with Trump, though, Trump gets exactly that done. [1:06:30] Day one. [1:06:31] And Owen goes, well, what have you done for me lately? [1:06:33] What is the number? [1:06:34] What is the number that you would be happy with of deportations for Trump's four years? [1:06:39] Overall number? [1:06:41] Yeah. [1:06:42] Probably, I would want to see, like, happy with, you said, versus what would be optimal [1:06:47] that I'd want to see. [1:06:48] Let's put a reasonable but good expectation number. [1:06:52] I mean, I would be happy if it was the case that we had no new immigrants coming in. [1:06:58] I think that's a massive success. [1:06:59] Well, we agree that Trump is that a success. [1:07:00] Okay, let me answer my own question, then you can respond. [1:07:03] I think if Trump doesn't deport at least 15 million people, which seems like an impossibility, [1:07:08] but they came here, we can get them out, there's strategies to do it. [1:07:11] I think 15 million, if it's less than that, I think we got a problem. [1:07:14] Well, the entirety of the basis for the 15 million number, you would agree with me, it is way more [1:07:19] than 15 million illegal immigrants. [1:07:20] Probably like 40, maybe. [1:07:21] Or 50. [1:07:22] Yeah. [1:07:23] It's very high. [1:07:24] Yeah. [1:07:25] So if it is the case that it's very high that we have this amount of illegals that are here, [1:07:29] that's going to take a long time. [1:07:30] And Trump has been, hang on, Trump has been hampered. [1:07:33] He was moving towards this. [1:07:35] He's been hampered in the courts, again, three times the amount of injunctions to any other [1:07:39] president when it comes to illegal immigration. [1:07:41] And he's trying to unilaterally do this because Congress isn't working with him. [1:07:44] He's hamstrung at every level. [1:07:46] He's using executive orders to push that through. [1:07:48] And it's been wildly successful. [1:07:50] Wildly successful with the tools that he has. [1:07:53] You have to say that that's successful. [1:07:55] A net negative migration. [1:07:57] I've said that that's the one success, but I just don't think. [1:07:59] That's the big success. [1:08:00] I just don't think that it's going to be where it needs to be. [1:08:03] I think that he's caved on the mass deportations. [1:08:06] And at the end of the day, as much as both of us would like to see every single illegal immigrant deported, [1:08:13] I think that the bigger issue. [1:08:14] But if they are, the prices are going to go up, right? [1:08:17] I think that you can negate that by not getting them into another war in the Middle East. [1:08:20] Through an adjustment. [1:08:21] The war in the Middle East, are you kidding me? [1:08:23] You think that that's the budget buster in comparison? [1:08:25] Absolutely. [1:08:26] He's asking for $1.5 trillion in the next defense budget. [1:08:29] Nothing. [1:08:30] We pay a trillion dollars in interest on our debt. [1:08:32] Do you know what our entitlements are in comparison to military spending? [1:08:35] Cut them all! [1:08:36] That's my whole point. [1:08:37] When we're talking about entitlements, the number one spending, not military. [1:08:40] That's one. [1:08:41] I think interest is about to take entitlements. [1:08:43] Well, maybe. [1:08:44] Maybe. [1:08:45] But the number one spending right now is entitlements is three times higher than military spending. [1:08:49] Three times higher. [1:08:50] Most of those entitlements are coming in because of illegal immigration and mass migration. [1:08:55] I don't know this. [1:08:56] I've heard you say it yourself. [1:08:57] I have a zero tolerance for any welfare. [1:08:59] Yeah. [1:09:00] I've heard you say it yourself. [1:09:01] So if that's the case, you're not going to be able to do this without a transitory period [1:09:06] where prices go up. [1:09:07] It's been a year. [1:09:08] When you see all of these jobs. [1:09:09] It's been over a year. [1:09:10] First of all, real wage growths have gone up 1.3% because the jobs are finally going [1:09:14] to Americans. [1:09:15] The economy is bad. [1:09:16] You can throw numbers every day. [1:09:17] The economy is bad. [1:09:18] More Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. [1:09:20] Are real wages up or down? [1:09:21] More Americans are in debt. [1:09:22] Down. [1:09:23] Okay. [1:09:24] So how far down are they? [1:09:25] They're as down as they've ever been. [1:09:27] They're as down as they've ever been, ladies and gentlemen. [1:09:29] Anybody can cook these numbers. [1:09:30] We just saw the Biden administration. [1:09:31] These wages are as down as they've ever been. [1:09:33] No, the wages are up 1.3% real wages. [1:09:35] Are you going to tell Americans that they're doing good financially today? [1:09:38] I didn't say there's not room for improvement. [1:09:40] We're talking about whether or not Trump is successful. [1:09:43] I think that Americans would be doing worse if real wages were at a net negative like they [1:09:46] were under Biden. [1:09:47] Yes. [1:09:48] And that real wages have gone up 1.3%. [1:09:50] It's a major thing. [1:09:51] And cost of living has gone up 2.3%. [1:09:53] And guess what? [1:09:54] That'll go down when you get rid of mass migration and immigrants. [1:09:58] We're at the conclusion of the open dialogue. [1:10:00] Gentlemen, thank you very much. [1:10:01] That was a riveting open discussion. [1:10:03] I think we take questions. [1:10:06] Yeah, I know. [1:10:07] Take this question. [1:10:10] By the way, that's how a gentleman debate. [1:10:12] Are you looking for something truly worth your time this summer?

[1:11:14] Where are the borders of this place? [1:11:16] For the Q&A, it's absolutely essential. [1:11:19] We want to press you to get to your question as fast as possible. [1:11:23] As fast as possible. [1:11:25] And no double questions. [1:11:26] No, I've got to. [1:11:28] With that, I'm also even going to hold the microphone just to be sure. [1:11:31] With that, thank you very much, Rachel. [1:11:33] Okay, so since this is going to be disingenuously framed as Andrew loves Epstein now, [1:11:39] I just want to say, many of you were very happy about a lot of Owen's points on Epstein. [1:11:44] And I am too. [1:11:45] And Andrew did make clear, we don't think he's good. [1:11:48] We don't think pedophilia is good. [1:11:50] Given that, since there are 30,000 to 40,000 girls, 15 and under, each year getting married in Iran. [1:11:58] And there are 2.3 million girls and women living in Iran right now who were married before they turned 15. [1:12:06] And this was not the case before this regime took over. [1:12:09] There were 18 and up marriage laws prior to 1979. [1:12:13] If we can get rid of this regime and the regime change eliminates this child marriage in the millions, would that be worth it to you? [1:12:22] All of you who are upset about the Epstein files, would that be something that you would support? [1:12:28] Well, I'd have to know what the worth it and payoff is. [1:12:33] I'm inclined to say no, too. [1:12:35] I'm inclined to say no, too, because Iran is not my country. [1:12:38] We've been in the Middle East for decades, for my entire life. [1:12:41] So we only care about pedophilia when it's here. [1:12:44] We don't care about 2.3 million children being married off to old men in Iran. [1:12:50] I care about fixing my country first, and I feel that our presence in the Middle East has not resulted in anything positive. [1:12:56] So then at least be honest that it's not about pedophilia. [1:12:59] It's not. [1:13:00] You do not care about pedophilia whatsoever. [1:13:02] You're just ass mad. [1:13:03] Well, if you want to change Iran, I'm sure that they'll take you over there. [1:13:08] You can go over there and fight the regime change war of the administration if you care so much about it. [1:13:12] No, the point is consistency. [1:13:17] If the entirety of the consistency is if Trump isn't actively going after pedophiles, he's supporting pedophiles. [1:13:26] Hang on, hang on. [1:13:27] Hang on. [1:13:28] Hang on. [1:13:29] Hang on. [1:13:30] Hang on. [1:13:31] If that is the case. [1:13:32] Well, why does he need to mention a thing that's known? [1:13:34] But anyway, if it is the case that it's not consistent? [1:13:37] Hey, man, if Trump isn't actively going after what I think is a U.S. pedophile ring that I can't even prove exists, then he's supporting pedophiles. [1:13:48] But over in Iran, where you literally see him blowing them up, where's the consistency there, man? [1:13:52] He blew up 200 school children. [1:13:54] Nobody has mentioned fighting pedophilia as part of this war. [1:13:57] war it's a regime change war for Israel to get control of the Middle East that's [1:14:02] what this is all about and so no I don't support that are the Iranians are is it [1:14:07] I rain is bad Iranians bad is it institutional to the it is it [1:14:12] institutional is it institutional to want to the Iranians under Sharia law [1:14:17] that they're allowed to marry kids or not when every American has a I'll tell [1:14:21] you what answer the question barbecue pit and a pool then we can go back in the [1:14:25] world can you answer the question is it the case that institutionally Sharia [1:14:28] allows you to marry children or not I'm not I'm not I'm not interested in Sharia [1:14:32] I don't want it in my answer my question answer the question Owen yes Sharia is [1:14:38] yes I don't like sure yes okay so so then the idea that she has is is in fact the [1:14:43] case but she's talking about consistency if Trump is covering for pedophiles by [1:14:48] not arresting who you think are pedophiles with no evidence then you're [1:14:51] supporting pedophiles by not letting him kill them in Iran it's different it's [1:14:55] my country versus Iran okay I live in America I want to fix America if you [1:14:59] want to fix Iran go to the Middle East it's not about fixing Iran it's about [1:15:03] the consistency of your logical position which is not so it's not about fixing [1:15:07] Iran but that's the entire basis of your not a logical position to say oh I'll [1:15:11] oppose it in this one hand and if Trump doesn't do that he's supporting it but on [1:15:15] the other hand if I take us away from killing them in Iran that's not him [1:15:19] supporting pedophilia it's bizarre so when being successful on at least your [1:15:28] primary promise of a thing be considered success no no if I if I hit one home run [1:15:36] in a ten inning game and we lose that's not a success so is it yeah is is it the [1:15:45] case though that Trump has been hugely successful when it comes to mass [1:15:51] migration he has been successful in that arena and that was one of his number one [1:15:55] promises yeah I said I said yes that's been a success that's one of like if [1:16:00] there are ten issues but but that's all negated by a seven week war it's a [1:16:05] separate issue and he's failed all right first Andrew Wilson I first learned [1:16:11] about the Orthodox Church from you and my family and I were just baptized into the [1:16:15] churches past Christmas Christ is risen second Owen you've made a lot of [1:16:22] comments about prosecutions and reducing taxes all while neglecting the fact that [1:16:27] these require two other branches of government working with Trump the [1:16:32] judiciary branch has consistently blocked him and almost every single move he's [1:16:36] made and it's had to go to the Supreme Court I don't know how many times [1:16:39] meanwhile Congress no thanks to Republicans in Congress by the way have [1:16:44] dragged their feet on almost every single issue so why are you putting all the [1:16:47] responsibility on Trump when we've got two other branches of government well [1:16:51] Trump appointed the Attorney General and she failed him so he he did that he [1:16:55] appointed that so I'm not the judiciary dude so I don't know what I don't know [1:17:00] about the judiciary of radical judges which have blocked Trump every chance they [1:17:04] get it was so bad in fact that the Supreme Court finally had to step in and say [1:17:08] look sorry California you can't set immigration policy for the rest of the [1:17:11] country do you believe these judges are corrupt many of them yes so then why [1:17:15] don't we do something about because because in this case corruption is a [1:17:19] matter of spectrum between political ideology Democrats believe that they're [1:17:23] doing something which is well within the purview of federal judges to do and it [1:17:27] was within their purview to do until that was recently constitutionally lifted by [1:17:31] the Supreme Court who said federal judges in California can't anymore say hey Texas [1:17:36] this is going to be the new standard for immigration law they were blocking Texas [1:17:40] immigration law in in radical courts in California dude he's been hamstrung at [1:17:45] every level by the judiciary hundred percent that's true the Supreme Court [1:17:49] which he appointed he's had massive victories there well not according to him [1:17:53] recently but I would just I just find it amazing that the Biden administration [1:17:57] can make thousands of prosecutions and arrest within months but this [1:18:01] administration can't do anything about Epstein clients or about the deep [1:18:05] state thousands of arrests of who myself in January 6th yeah so they were able to [1:18:10] utilize the power of the media to paint all of you guys as being violent extremist [1:18:16] insurrectionists in order to get the public on their side in this particular case not [1:18:21] only Democrats but but on your side people have weaponized the media instead to [1:18:26] paint Trump out as though he's part of some pedophilic satanic elite thus [1:18:31] getting the one thing he always had in his teeth was the media and you guys have done [1:18:36] everything you can to take that away through this obfuscation of Epstein in the Epstein files [1:18:42] when we have way bigger fish to fry in domestic policy for sure and you don't you still don't even [1:18:46] have any evidence of any of those claims which is wild this is for Owen so if Trump [1:18:54] could only do one thing that would make you change your mind would it would you rather him [1:18:59] act more on the e-files or where we're currently at with Iran which one is a [1:19:03] bigger issue for you I would say probably get bring the troops home generally speaking bring [1:19:10] them all home and I think you win the midterms if you do that I think you save face with everything [1:19:14] if you come out tomorrow and you say we're done in the Middle East and we're bringing all of our [1:19:18] troops home I think you sweep the midterms this is mainly for both of y'all I just want to ask how [1:19:25] can we get our economy to rebound after the negative effects of the tariffs especially on American [1:19:30] manufacturing workers I myself actually work at a industrial plant that produces grinding wheels for [1:19:36] breaks and our business we had to increase prices a lot because rock costs are all materials went [1:19:42] up a lot because it was harder to import them because all the chromium and manganese comes from [1:19:46] China sure so morning like what is y'all stance on how we could get the economy back and get the prices [1:19:52] back down well I was a big fan and still am of tariffs but what the tariffs were used for people get [1:19:58] it wrong all the time they think that it was just willy-nilly it wasn't what happens is if you [1:20:02] have the North American free trade agreement NAFTA so this means that you know this these are tax-free [1:20:08] imports and exports so if Canada imports a bunch of stuff from China who we have a 25 percent tariff [1:20:13] on and then just labels it Canada don't they avoid any of our tariffs the Chinese yes so what that is [1:20:20] is it's closing back doors by putting tariffs on westernized nations and there's no possible way by the [1:20:26] the way for you to raise revenue in the United States you only have two ways to do it taxes or [1:20:31] tariffs so Harris's idea was that she was going to get rid of the corporate tax breaks and that was [1:20:37] going to drastically increase prices because it has to Trump's idea was that he was going to fight a [1:20:42] tariff war with potential future enemies and people who are adversaries with us on the global stage now [1:20:47] would you pick your poison which one would you want to see yeah I'm a little I'm a little concerned I [1:20:53] think Andrew and I would probably agree with most these issues I'm a little concerned about that [1:20:58] we that you talk about your company specifically is so reliant on China you know this is something [1:21:03] whether it's Trump or the next president or Biden all of our presidents have been put into a deep ditch [1:21:08] because our Congress has sold us out to mostly West Asia China that's why everything is made over [1:21:14] there so now we're basically reliant these minerals you're talking about rare earth minerals were [1:21:19] basically reliant pharmaceuticals we're extremely reliant and that's because Congress for [1:21:23] the last 20 30 years has completely sold us out through bribes and kickbacks by the way and so [1:21:27] we're screwed on that deal I would say I I support tariffs too I would agree with Andrew that I [1:21:33] support tariffs the problem that president had that the president has and he did get screwed I think by [1:21:38] the Supreme Court on this deal he did but the problem that you have is we have so many corporate [1:21:44] taxes we have so many regulations it's like you're already so deep in the hole you talk about your [1:21:50] company what I'd like for president Trump to do since you know the tariffs look like they're not [1:21:55] going to work now I'd like them I'd like to see him get corporate tax rates as low as possible I'd [1:22:00] like to see him remember when he came in the first administration he did that big display and he cut [1:22:04] the red tape and it was getting rid of all this regulation I think that that's the best plan right [1:22:09] now I think we just have to get rid of as much regulation as possible get rid of the corporate tax [1:22:15] rates as much as possible and you know that that is one that you can mostly blame on the Democrats [1:22:19] but the Republicans went along for the well Trump extended hang on Trump extended his tax cuts and [1:22:24] is going to continue to the extension of tax cuts not only that he does want to get them lower when [1:22:29] he's talking about regulation especially as we dive into this you have to remember a couple things the [1:22:34] first thing is is that he did get screwed on the tariffs okay the best thing on planet earth would [1:22:41] would have been for him to continue to raise revenue through tariffs that way you can lower taxes but [1:22:45] how you gonna raise revenue man how you gonna raise revenue without tax increases or tariffs you can't [1:22:51] do it can I make a suggestion actually what I'd like to see is I'd like a policy that if you're [1:22:58] gonna come here and work whatever money you're gonna send overseas we're gonna tax that at at least 50 [1:23:03] yeah remittances honestly I'd tax it at 80 but remittances will do hardly anything that's the problem but [1:23:08] you know what it might not it might not change much financially Andrew but people will stop doing it [1:23:13] they'll either stop coming here or they're or they're gonna stop sending the money home because [1:23:17] we're just gonna keep it people would still work in the United States illegal immigrants would still [1:23:21] come in here even if you had a 10 tax on remittances because it's still way more money than they're [1:23:25] going to be then I'd go 80 yeah you're never going to get 80 through and that's not the thing Trump can [1:23:30] unilaterally do again you'd have to have both houses in this case at least Congress would have to act [1:23:36] on that so I love the idea we used to have we had Congress for a minute we had Congress for a minute [1:23:41] now but could you say that just the money being made due to the large amounts of goods we have [1:23:47] to import from China could that also boost it because China I mean they are far too big of an [1:23:53] industrial power for us to just cut off I mean they produce half the world's steel they have four [1:23:57] times our population and their industrial industry has been expanding rapidly for that's what the [1:24:02] was for yeah I dare for was designed to weaken the the Chinese economy as much as possible and [1:24:09] Democrats and some of the never Trumpers and some of the Republicans who don't like Trump really went [1:24:16] after him for tariffs because they said made the same argument well good prices are going to increase [1:24:20] yes of course they are but what's the alternative if you have Kamala Harris comes in and she takes out [1:24:25] the corporate tax right the corporate tax decrease your prices of your goods still increase except now [1:24:31] you're not weakening your global adversary so it's like which poison you want to pick I I would say [1:24:36] too if there's one thing if you're gonna if you're gonna look an American in the eye and say hey we have [1:24:41] a transitory period you know they say this thing short-term pain for long-term game that's probably the [1:24:48] only one where I would look them straight in the eye and say I'm square with you if you need to do [1:24:52] these tariffs to try to rebalance the global market and that hurts us for maybe a year and we can start [1:24:57] producing steel we can start bringing some manufacturing back bringing Mainstream back Main [1:25:02] Street back that would be something that I would say okay Americans would believe in that cause but [1:25:07] the whole thing's been turned over by the Supreme Court now so hey guys thank you for introducing me [1:25:15] into work orthodoxy you're welcome bring out the holy water come on a question for both of y'all you know [1:25:24] in I've noticed seeing a lot with foreign policy especially in the last 50 years you know I see [1:25:31] myself asking this question what kind of America do we want to be do we want to stay to our imperialistic [1:25:36] roots which is based from like the Spanish American war you know our acquiring of Philippines Guam [1:25:44] Grenada do we still want to be that imperialistic power in the world which I'm totally down for I don't [1:25:51] consider it an imperial power but a hegemonic power and I think that that's the proper context [1:25:57] Americans are not imperialist and never have been we don't we don't have an empire a traditional empire [1:26:02] like what you'd see with the British Empire things like this we're a hegemon and the United States will [1:26:07] brook nobody messing with their hegemon status and when you guys think about it I know how that sounds [1:26:13] you go we just I don't care for a hegemon yes you do oh yeah you do you care a great deal if you're a [1:26:19] hegemon you just don't know that you care a great deal if you're a hegemon but let me just ask it to [1:26:24] you this way if it was the case that you could pick between two lives the one life is there's a guy [1:26:29] who lives up on a hill who has everything and can kick the holy shit out of you and you could be that [1:26:34] guy or the guy he kicks the shit out of which way you roll man tell me you want to be the guy on the [1:26:39] hill so I agree directionally but I feel like Americans are the ones getting their ass kicked right now you [1:26:46] know that that's the problem I feel like Americans what by who by our own government oh well that okay [1:26:52] hang on hang on yes inside of a hegemonic do you want to just speed up the Q&A just slightly yeah very [1:26:58] quickly I'll just say I agree with that yes of course especially from Democrats and progressives [1:27:03] they beat the beat the holy shit out of the private sector in the worst way possible I guess what I'm [1:27:08] saying is directionally to answer your question when you're talking about empire we're a hegemon not an [1:27:13] empire thank you very much hey firstly I thank you Andrew thank you Owen my question is around [1:27:23] immigration and in the in the demographic ship so my question is with the US turning into a country [1:27:29] with a non-white majority the concern is that the significant demographic ship will change the [1:27:34] country fundamentally and America will cease to be America and this is echoed on echoed in the in the [1:27:40] dissident right-wing spheres and I want to quote Ben Shapiro here he said in 2016 if I'm not incorrect he [1:27:49] said I don't give a damn about the so-called Browning of America color doesn't matter ideology does and this [1:27:56] has caused a massive infighting in the right wing and my question is do you associate with the mainstream [1:28:01] conservative view that Ben Shapiro and MAGA spouts or the more dissident and alt-right well I don't [1:28:08] think MAGA spouts that I think Ben Shapiro does but I don't think MAGA in general spouts that so I [1:28:13] would answer it this way let's just agree with Ben Shapiro for the sake of argument here that yes under [1:28:20] cultural nationalism we'd want people who have the similar values to the United States those do just so [1:28:25] happen to be most of the white nations I'm just pointing that out that if you wanted to import people who had [1:28:30] the most amount of your values that does seem to be from the nations which are mostly white so I [1:28:36] would even grant Shapiro's argument because I mean how would that actually how would that actually hurt [1:28:42] the MAGA base to grant the argument I don't think I don't think we are taking Ben Shapiro statements at [1:28:47] face value at this with this quote here I think he means something a little bit different than we're [1:28:52] perceiving but nonetheless let me give you an example of something I experienced that might put this kind [1:28:58] of end of a picture for you when I was charged by the federal government and I was going through [1:29:03] the process of defense I dealt with a Chinese prosecutor I dealt with I think it was from [1:29:11] Azerbaijan I forget which country a country in the Middle East who was a magistrate judge and then [1:29:16] there was another another prosecutor I forget where it was the point is three foreigners that were now [1:29:23] American were involved in my case I had a free speech case they even cite my speech as the reason [1:29:28] for putting me in jail now I don't know if it's the perfect example but I look at that and I say [1:29:32] here's three people who weren't born in the country who don't have that ingrained love of free speech it's [1:29:38] not in their heart it's not in their soul it's something they might have been taught it's something [1:29:42] they might have learned as like a textbook concept but they don't understand the soul of it they don't [1:29:47] understand the spirit of it and so that's where I think it starts to come into play there's there's an [1:29:52] American spirit there's an American soul you have to you have to have it you can learn it through a [1:29:57] textbook but when you come from a foreign country that doesn't you know live and die by these ideas [1:30:02] and practices it's a little bit different when the rubber meets the road so I do think it matters it [1:30:07] might not matter what your skin color is but it matters that if you come from a country that doesn't [1:30:12] value free speech you really can't even comprehend what that means to America I don't think you can let's [1:30:18] just say for the sake of argument very quickly that it did that that everybody in the United [1:30:22] States said you know what we just don't want mass migration from only brown countries let's just say [1:30:27] that they did so fucking what we have the control to do that if we want to do that nobody bitches if [1:30:34] Japan does that nobody cares they don't give a shit not a bit so the thing is is that if it's the [1:30:39] case that you really want a democracy you really want a republic you really want the will of the [1:30:43] people will mass migration all Western nations is resisted by all people in Western nations isn't [1:30:49] that amazing they all hate it every one of them in the UK they mass vote against it they hate it in [1:30:54] Australia they hate it in Western Europe they loathe it in Eastern Europe it's unpopular everywhere [1:31:00] it's tried it's possible ready for you so this Congress so far has only passed 83 bills which is on [1:31:10] track at this point to be the lowest of the modern history so I want this from both of you which is [1:31:16] what is your opinion on the the current Republican Party which Trump heads and how they've misspent [1:31:21] their trifecta in government and what it means for the political future of the party yeah so I would [1:31:26] agree with Owen so here's maybe an olive branch Republicans aren't doing a great job and it would [1:31:32] be nice to see many of them in Republican primaries get primaried out by better candidates I would agree [1:31:37] with that a hundred percent I just think that you're gonna need Trump's support to do that a hundred [1:31:42] percent you're gonna need his support to do it so so I I do think that ultimately we've missed the [1:31:48] forest through the trees and what happens is we go wait a second if we just accelerate and we wait [1:31:53] until things get really bad then somehow base candidates are gonna come out of the woodwork and [1:31:57] there's gonna be new messiahs that's not what happens what happens is you live in four years of [1:32:01] six years of misery and then you rush to the other party to offset the damage done and all you do the [1:32:07] entire time the your party comes in is undo everything the other one did I'll be quick [1:32:14] yeah speaking of Trump endorsements I wish he wouldn't endorse people like Lindsey Graham right [1:32:19] here in South Carolina and you know I I've been I've been given the thought process behind it I don't [1:32:28] like it I think Mark Lynch would be a much better senator and Trump used to campaign against Lindsey [1:32:35] Graham but I will say this in response to the to the Congress issue with Republicans I don't think [1:32:41] this I don't think this GOP I don't think this Republican Party actually likes Trump I think they're [1:32:45] faking it I think they're pretending it right now of course and I think when the time comes they will [1:32:50] all turn on Trump and I'm afraid it's going to be after the midterms when the Democrats move to [1:32:54] impeach if they do I think a lot of Republicans are going to turn on Trump in that case and we'll see what the [1:32:59] Republican Party was saying but if we assure by a continuously attacking Trump that Demo especially [1:33:06] by labeling him as a pedophilic protector which by the way he was almost assassinated for the other [1:33:10] night right you read the manifesto he was almost assassinated because they were like wow you're [1:33:14] protecting pedophiles you assure Democrats coming in which will hamstring Trump and they will impeach him [1:33:19] I hundred percent guarantee you that if Democrats get in office they will impeach Donald Trump and [1:33:24] accelerationists on the right want that but for why why what's the point that's not going to do any [1:33:29] good it's not like Democrats are going to come in and be like we're not Zionist no more yeah right [1:33:33] they'll just make everything worse policy did that not podcasters I just had a quick question about [1:33:47] your both of you your opinion on Donald Trump hand appointing Ronald Lauder son-in-law Kevin worse to [1:33:53] the National Treasury earlier this year who if you know anything about the Epstein files he was a second [1:33:58] biggest donor besides Les Wesner to Jeffrey Epstein it's just the facts whether Trump was involved in [1:34:06] anything illegal or not I'm not convinced that he has been but it's just a fact Trump was in the Epstein [1:34:10] circles he was he hung around with all these people I don't think you can deny that the next question [1:34:17] hello you two first of all thank you guys so much for being here um I'm I have a question for both of [1:34:23] you I'm a little concerned about this sort of division sort of on the right so Owen could you provide me your [1:34:29] strongest point of praise for Trump and Andrew your strongest point of criticism please yeah I'll [1:34:33] make it quick again I will never regret voting for Trump because he freed a lot of my friends that [1:34:39] would have spent much of the rest of their lives in in a federal prison so for that I will never [1:34:43] regret voting for Trump whether or not I think it's propaganda driven he has restored a certain [1:34:49] level of patriotism I think to this country that is always good whether or not it comes from a base of [1:34:55] truth or not he is constantly trying to induce patriotism so I think that that's good he's [1:34:59] obviously secured the border on these three things I would say that Trump has done a great job yeah [1:35:06] Trump's done a great job um so to answer your question directly he's way too pro-woman that's [1:35:13] true I I will say the I call it I call it the bimbofication of the administration it's it's really it's look it's [1:35:23] really bad bomb Bondi is a bimbo 100% the faith his office of faith lunatic that he has in there [1:35:31] she's a problem right the fact the fact that they bend over backwards for the females in the [1:35:37] administration this was supposed to be positive at least say they're good looking or something [1:35:40] well no no I'm supposed to take you have to jump forward oh you were taking I'm taking the worst [1:35:44] what's the worst thing I've done is his pro-woman is the worst thing he's done on my opinion just to [1:35:48] get in as many questions as we can with the remainder of time that we have why are the women [1:35:53] clapping for that good God nobody hates women like I have to I have to restrict you guys to just one [1:35:59] response to each question just to get as many questions in as we're running a little behind [1:36:02] Owen Andrew said in his opening statement that one of the strengths of Trump was moving the Overton [1:36:08] window just had a conversation about Republicans secretly hating Trump I think I've seen you long [1:36:13] enough big fan you have a problem with the uniparty and the way things have been for years and [1:36:17] years and years in this country given the fact that it would be impossible to even consider [1:36:21] a fraction in that uniparty before Trump wouldn't you say that that alone is a success of Trump that [1:36:27] we have a better chance he's making small incremental gains now but we have a better chance of actually [1:36:32] having someone that someone like me and you would say is much better in the future because of Trump [1:36:36] and wouldn't that be enough for you to consider him a success yes but I think the issue I think I [1:36:44] think the issue that we're going to face is we're two election cycles away from that coming to fruition [1:36:49] and whatever damage is going to be done in the next four years I don't know I don't know how bad it's [1:36:54] going to get but I think that I think that we're starting to see that process yes well it's it's funny [1:36:59] to me though it again every time we go down these roads it seems like Owen is more on the Trump has been [1:37:05] more successful than not his big two things seem to be hinge on I knew that they would the Epstein files and [1:37:12] what's going on in Iran but anytime we get into domestic policy and what's going on here he [1:37:17] seems to have a much more favorable opinion so I get a closing statement right well I'm just I'm [1:37:23] just I'm just answering to the question right so making sure so yeah so I mean overall he he seems [1:37:29] like he's far more pro-Trump than not pro-Trump as far as the successes in my opinion thank you I [1:37:33] appreciate that maybe the maybe the right you're going to get off my ass now this one thank you both for [1:37:38] the exciting debate Andrew do you believe that Trump could do a policy or an action that would be [1:37:46] so bad that it would overcome all of his net successes and if so how would it not be him portraying [1:37:53] himself as the God man Jesus Christ thereby incurring the wrath of God on our nation oh I see so the meme the [1:38:00] the uh the meme so I think that Trump's actually memed worse stuff than that honestly um but sure I'm [1:38:07] willing to grant that was bad okay yeah he should he shouldn't have memed out um you know himself as [1:38:14] Jesus Christ healing the soldier 100% agree I'm definitely not giving Democrats control of the nation [1:38:20] over it it's not no way not in a million years so even if Trump blasphemed let's just say he's a [1:38:27] blasphemer all of the Democrats are blasphemers they're all anti-christian they're all lunatics [1:38:32] and most of them are atheists so it's like okay a little bit of blasphemy versus that I'll take a [1:38:38] little bit of blasphemy maybe you don't like it right but I I'm assured what'll happen to Christians [1:38:45] if Democrats get back into power I'm assured that was a doctor okay I thought I was a doctor [1:38:52] you know too on the doctor thing he did say that with a smirk he was he was like shit posting to [1:38:59] the media when he said it just saying we'll go to the next one okay I wasn't gonna ask a question [1:39:03] until the very end Owen said that there's a mega cult now that Trump is ahead of um and I guess the [1:39:09] question is the biggest split uh now would be headed by Tucker Carlson having like nicotine driven demon [1:39:17] visions and Candace Owen talking about like Bridget macron's phallus and uh like committing calumny [1:39:24] against a widow and Erica Kirk I guess and like the guy you just interviewed Dan Bilzerian talking about [1:39:30] whatever the hell he's talking about between playing poker and fucking tons of women whatever [1:39:34] so I guess the question is to both of you I guess which side is better Trump and his people who are [1:39:41] actually you know effectuating change you know in our favor or you know the people talking about [1:39:47] Bridget macron's dick and all that I mean that's kind of a bit of a straw man so I don't really [1:39:53] know what that has to do with this debate I don't see Candace Owens in South Carolina you know uh [1:39:58] campaigning for Mark Lynch or even debating her views she well at least Owen debates his views I did [1:40:04] campaign for Mark Lynch I was here no no but I'm saying like most of the people within the you know [1:40:10] true mega as you would see it they're mostly online outside of you and a couple others they're mostly [1:40:15] online just complaining no I mean I'm not sure what exactly you're asking um unfortunately let [1:40:23] me let me just let me answer it like this unfortunately good people in politics are very rare I feel like [1:40:31] that doesn't answer the question at all there are no good sides so how about that there are no good [1:40:35] sides there are no directly obviously uh Trump and the people who are affecting change in the positive [1:40:42] light towards which Owen just admitted sets the stage for us to have better candidates in the future [1:40:47] due to these current policies and direction that we're going obviously that's superior to talking [1:40:52] about Bridget macron's penis we'll go to the next this is actually our last question that might get erect [1:40:58] before we win another election well thank you to both gentlemen by the way my question is exclusively to [1:41:04] Owen so you mentioned about the problem of rising prices in America and you propose a solution which [1:41:10] is cutting more taxes for the average American so they have more money to spend but from my point [1:41:15] of view right I believe that this will be counterproductive because like when you cut taxes it actually [1:41:20] stimulates the demand and when you stimulate the demand it actually makes the inflation worse so I'm [1:41:26] just wondering what your opinion on this because I just do not believe that you know from my [1:41:31] understanding of economics just cutting taxes to solve a an issue of rising prices and inflation is not the [1:41:36] way to approach it so what do you think of it well I would disagree with the premise I think that [1:41:42] Americans having more money in their pocket and their bank account would be good for them economically [1:41:46] and the other side of that coin let's say let's say that the conclusion you've reached is accurate the [1:41:53] other side of that coin is that Americans just stay in perpetual debt the country stays in perpetual debt [1:41:57] and Americans can never own anything which is the current rate that we're at and I don't think that's [1:42:02] good I'd like to see Americans be able to own something lower prices or it should in theory lower [1:42:06] prices to the consumer do you agree with that okay so if that's the case people already are going to [1:42:11] have more money to spend without inflating the money supply right yeah okay there we go we'll jump [1:42:18] to the next one and we're going to move into a rapid fire if you guys are able to answer in as pithy [1:42:23] a way as possible we'll go to the next question I'm relatively pro tariff it seems y'all two are also [1:42:29] but I don't see how you square the tariffs at the same time while Howard Lutnick and his sons are [1:42:36] raking in millions hundreds of millions of dollars through Cantor Fitzgerald while at the same time [1:42:41] Howard Lutnick is advocating for Trump to increase tariffs not buying out here buying out tariff [1:42:49] rebates via companies while the American people are paying for those rebates on both ends yeah I [1:42:54] see I see what you're saying you're saying there's a private company which is taking advantage of the [1:42:58] tariff situation well Howard Lutnick's son okay yeah I'd have to look into the specifics and details [1:43:03] of that speak competently on it with that particular case Cantor Fitzgerald and I think I think Lutnick is [1:43:10] just a problem you know I don't know if we'll ever get to the bottom of those answers but I think that [1:43:15] you have to look at it now and wonder if that wasn't a Lutnick policy that ultimately he cashed in on [1:43:19] I think that's a fair question [1:43:21] copy base [1:43:22] do a really quick one [1:43:23] hey first day he took his kids to school come on [1:43:26] Andrew you spoke about the he was talking about exporting Israeli pedophiles back and saying that was an [1:43:36] opposite obfuscation okay so we don't want to talk about Israeli pedophiles but what's one thing we [1:43:43] can't talk about did we talk about it but well I actually gave it more accurate numbers which more [1:43:48] important how many he said it's going right to your point about accurate numbers the Israelis have killed [1:43:54] roughly 70,000 women and children which is an official policy of their Palestinian ethnic cleansing which is [1:44:04] something Trump has enabled and supported would you say would is like that a success of Trump like [1:44:12] is Trump so we don't care about killing their pedophiles but we care about but if they but if [1:44:17] they died it's to our benefit that's not America first I'm confused I want to make sure I got this [1:44:23] right so if Trump is affecting killing a pedophilic elite in Iran that is bad because has nothing to do [1:44:30] with American interest and you don't care about foreign countries right but if it's the case that [1:44:35] Trump in some way enables them to kill their enemies right that's not America first and that's [1:44:41] bad you got to make up your mind here the killing of innocent people I'm talking about by the Israeli [1:44:49] government okay yeah it's not America so who cares right it kind of is America because they take [1:44:55] hundreds of billions of dollars from us yes and they use our military I mean we subsidize Israel is [1:45:00] is anyone else sick of subsidizing a foreign country I mean good guys ever hang on hang on [1:45:05] we subsidize every hang on we subsidize every foreign country I agree stop it all that's that's [1:45:12] one not only that not only that here's what's funny it's like I don't want to subsidize Israel [1:45:17] I don't give a shit about Israel okay I don't care but I also don't give a shit if they're engaged [1:45:23] in perpetual conflict with Arabs I don't fucking care I agree pull our money out of that I don't want [1:45:28] anything to do with it that has nothing to do with whether or not Trump has been a success as [1:45:33] a president even if I count that against him even if I count that against Trump he would still have [1:45:40] been a more successful president still all right hey so we've heard from Andrew tonight a lot about [1:45:47] how the Democrats have hamstrung Trump Trump can't unilaterally unilaterally do X Y and Z so why is it [1:45:54] that when it comes to declaring a war not a war he can do so unilaterally without approval from [1:45:59] Congress yeah because he's the commander-in-chief of the general hang on no no it doesn't mean that [1:46:05] you need to read the Constitution let's go to the Constitution to the hang on to keep loudly declare [1:46:10] war do you want me to answer or not first of all first of all if you know you if you know if you [1:46:18] know US history then you would know how many times we've been embroiled in conflict abroad by the [1:46:24] president United States including hang on including by Thomas Jefferson why'd you leave is that is it just [1:46:32] like a mic drop and then I'm gonna go like they tell me I started a war of course I started a war [1:46:38] but I'm gonna say it's not a war because I don't want to get impeached it's very simple okay it's [1:46:42] very simple yeah the commander-in-chief it's over I won five times by the way and I'm the president of [1:46:48] peace the commander-in-chief does have broad power when it comes to unilaterally utilizing the military [1:46:52] Congress has control of the purse they have control of the funding and of the purse right now the [1:46:58] military's funded Trump can do basically whatever the hell he wants with them unless there's an act [1:47:03] of Congress where is that at we have to jump into the closings so favor didn't it yeah yeah you'll [1:47:10] we'll go right into these closings with three-minute time sections we're gonna start with the Andrew of [1:47:17] course and then we'll follow up with Owen Andrew the floor is all yours for your three-minute closing [1:47:21] yeah so a whole bunch of things to cover as we're going over the span of this debate I know that we got [1:47:26] caught on the Epstein stuff but the reason that that was important to get caught on is because [1:47:30] it's the hammer and bludgeon that the left wing has been using to defame Trump now ever since the [1:47:35] debacle of the Epstein file release which was a debacle 100% I'm not going to even bother trying [1:47:42] to defend it it was a debacle the way that that was released now that aside labeling this guy a [1:47:49] pedophile and that's what they label him and labeling him as a protector of pedophiles all that that's [1:47:56] done is destroy him in the public psyche and when you see the alt-right maybe not all writers I'm [1:48:02] I'm generalizing here a little bit when you see right-wingers who also try to bludgeon him with [1:48:05] the same thing they're doing the Democrats work for them Democrats never gave a shit about the Epstein [1:48:10] files nothing was ever released under any Democrat president in fact the sweetheart deals to Costa as [1:48:16] we pointed out was done under Obama they've never cared about it they use it as a bludgeon a [1:48:22] bludgeon against the guy and Republicans go right along with it basically they're using that as a [1:48:28] position to try to sweep the midterms and that's exactly what's probably going to happen and you're [1:48:33] going to be really mad when they do because you're going to remember what it was like living under [1:48:38] Democrats it sucks now that's why that was so important and I asked Owen about evidences and of [1:48:45] course didn't fucking have any the evidence is always we don't they didn't give us enough evidence [1:48:50] okay but what about the fact that what we do have what about the redactions Andrew what about [1:48:55] that okay that was all done mostly by attorneys Trump can't do much about that right every time [1:49:01] you get into the specifics of these things and these details for these people it's no different [1:49:05] than when I'm on tick-tock arguing with them they never have anything of substance to say on the topic [1:49:10] only insinuations this is what must be happening this and that but they're defaming the president [1:49:16] the United States with this they're bludgeoning him with it which gives the Democrats an upper hand [1:49:20] that's why that was important coming into this when we're talking about the success of Donald Trump [1:49:24] they'd say that that's hamstringing some of that success when it came to the domestic policies Owen [1:49:29] basically rolled over I mean he agrees with me on the net zero migration he agreed on Trump pardoning him [1:49:36] and all of his friends he agreed with tariffs he agrees with all of these various things the only two points [1:49:42] he seems to have that he really tries to hammer Trump on is just the idea of this conflict in Iran [1:49:49] which is only going on for seven weeks I'm not going to move against Trump without serious boots on the ground [1:49:55] if he's doing limited airstrikes in this war to give ground to Democrats that's insane no way I'm not doing it [1:50:02] the other problem is is that I think I demonstrated all of these successes Owen did not do a great job of [1:50:08] demonstrating Trump's failures he in fact agreed with me more than he didn't on most of the things [1:50:14] that I consider to be successful now if we go back just a couple of years if I said that we would get [1:50:20] to a point we have net negative migration more people leaving than coming in you guys would be [1:50:25] jumping for joy never thought possible and yet here we are that's not good enough what's Trump done [1:50:32] for me lately the timer is set for you as well Owen three minutes the floor is yours my last comment as [1:50:46] far as the debate here is concerned the ultimate measuring stick for Trump's success is going to be [1:50:53] the midterms which you've sacrificed that you are expecting that Republicans are going to lose Trump is [1:51:00] going to be on the campaign trail and Republicans are going to still lose the midterms and if you want [1:51:05] to say oh well this is the media this is the Epstein stuff Trump has been against the media through two [1:51:10] election cycles and one well three he's won three election cycles with the media attacking him so [1:51:15] I don't really think that's legitimate but I want to step back I want to step back from the actual [1:51:19] contents of the debate and I want to make a general statement about why I don't view Trump's [1:51:25] administration as a success and that might be because my expectations were too lofty but this is [1:51:30] the reality of the situation as I see it and I think as a lot of Americans see it the debate up here [1:51:36] was politics as usual it seems like a lot of the stuff happening in DC Democrats Republicans it's [1:51:42] all just politics as usual I supported Donald Trump and voted for Donald Trump three times because I'm [1:51:48] sick of the politics as usual I'm looking for somebody to go in there and have massive reform [1:51:54] turn tables over shrink the government in ways that we never thought possible make a I mean we all think [1:52:00] Trump says treason how many times has Trump said treason nobody's been tried for treason nobody's been [1:52:04] arrested for treason so I elected a reform agent I elected a change agent I elected somebody to get [1:52:11] in there and not do politics as usual but actually ram heads with the globalists ram heads with the [1:52:16] establishment and completely remake this country to closer to what it was founded upon closer to the [1:52:22] constitutional ideals closer to self-government closer to being independent shrinking the government [1:52:28] bringing everything internally instead of sending out aid all over the country that's what I wanted [1:52:33] lofty goals high expectations may be but I think the understanding from the American people and why [1:52:39] we supported Trump I don't know how much longer I don't know how many opportunities we're gonna get [1:52:43] to save this country politically politically I don't know how many other opportunities we're gonna [1:52:47] get to save this country and I feel like if we can't do it with Trump and Bongino and Patel if we can't do it [1:52:54] with this team that's a blow that's a blow I don't know where we go from here the Democrats get back in [1:53:00] it's gonna be worse than ever but that's what I elected from Trump I elected a change agent I wanted [1:53:05] somebody to get in there and do massive reform massive shrinking of government beyond just doge [1:53:10] arresting deep state criminals and we're just simply not getting it and it doesn't look like [1:53:15] it's going that way either and I'm just concerned I don't know how many more election cycles our country [1:53:19] can take before it becomes impossible to save this country politically thank you very much gentlemen [1:53:29] please join me in giving one final applause to our speakers what a fantastic debate great job we'll [1:53:41] have one more announcement we'll have one more announcement from Sean
