Summary

Episode covers Trump's Strait of Hormuz blockade strategy against Iran, Eric Swalwell's suspended California gubernatorial campaign amid sexual assault allegations, Hungary's election replacing Viktor Orbán with Peter Mayer (who is actually more right-wing on immigration), and criticism of Pope Francis's political positions on immigration and climate policy.

Insights
  • Trump's Hormuz blockade targets Iranian ports specifically rather than closing the strait entirely, removing Iran's leverage point while allowing other nations' commerce to continue
  • Hungary's election result contradicts mainstream media narrative—the new PM is further right on immigration than Orbán, indicating sustained conservative momentum rather than liberal resurgence
  • Western institutions increasingly punish public figures for minor cultural missteps (Sabrina Carpenter yodeling incident), creating chilling effect on free expression and rewarding performative apologies
  • Pope Francis operates with inconsistent standards, taking strong political stances on immigration/climate while claiming neutrality, undermining Catholic institutional credibility with conservative voters
  • Swalwell's hypocrisy—championing 'believe all women' while denying allegations—exemplifies how progressive politicians abandon principles when personally accused
Trends

Can't say that, Joe. We're live. This is a live... Welcome to the lineup live on Rumble, where each show rolls in the next 8 a.m. Eastern to, I believe, 7 p.m. We have more announcements here coming soon. You don't need to change that dial if you had a dial. One of the last time at TV had a dial. I still don't know, and I can't be bothered to look it up. We have a few things to get into today. We have a good Trump, bad Trump. The straight-up hormones is being blockaded, as you have been told, starting, well, now, just a little while ago. But it's not exactly what you've been told. That's actually not so much bad Trump. It could go either way. The image of him as Jesus, we'd file that firmly under bad Trump. I get it. We'll talk about that. But I also have some issues with the Pope. No one comes out smelling like roses in this. Speaking of smelling like roses, Eric Swalwell, he's going after me on Twitter. I will tell you this. I always reserve judgment on personal issues because I know that hit pieces can take place and there's, you know, innocent until proven guilty. Seems like he probably did it. So we have a time to close for Eric Swalwell and then hungry the elections. This is a time to take stock of who you follow because you see people on the left saying this is a win for liberalism and democracy now that Orban is gone. You see people on the right saying this shows you where the winds are blowing. Do you know a whole lot about this man, Peter, who just replaced Victor Orban? Do you know that he's to the right of Victor Orban on immigration and on a lot of social issues? He definitely isn't center right. He's right. And then we'll go through the next top three political parties of Hungary. What you've been sold is not exactly what's going on here. And Sabrina Carpenter doesn't like Islamic yodeling. We'll talk about that more on with the show. Oh, I can't wait to get back in the saddle. Reapin' and pillaging. Oh, didn't you hear? We can't be rapin' no more. Hard, no. Sad to say it's true, our old Johnny Two Eyes got me toed. It's only pillaging for us now. Oh, what? That's gotta be hard. I'm not sure there's enough in this business for me now. Come on, you're a great pillager. I know, I know. Your plunderin' ain't bad neither. No, I know I'm an above average pillager. And at least a passable plunderer, but I mainly got into this for that rapin. Oh. That was the main selling point. The real closer for me. Hey, I've got an idea.

Haven't gotten a good one of those in a while. Stop passing notes in class. Sorry, Gerald. My bad. Hey, quick, I forgot to ask you the question. We know there have been some good ones and there have been some okay ones. What do you think, what would you categorize as the worst President Trump social media post? Like if you had to do like a top three or bottom three, not the highlights, the low lights. You let me know. Captain Morgan, see you. How are you? Fantastic. My vote is, great party last night, Jeffrey. Oh. Wait, was that an actual one? No. Oh, I had no idea. See, that's the problem. Yeah, that's the problem. You don't just say things that are factually inaccurate. He just thinks, Gerald just thinks that jokes are lies. It's a weird, actually very grass. He's just like, if I just lie and I'm just joking, it's like, no, but that does, there's nothing funny. That was just an outright lie. Yeah, that's horrible. That's just terrible. You smirked. Yeah, well, you know what, I'm not the, I'm not going to have to be the one. Because he thought it was real for a second. Yeah, because I didn't know. So when Gerald said I looked handsome today. That's just lies. Is that a joke? No, that's projection because he's a narcissist. Oh, okay. Yeah, he does an American psycho and he P points in the mirror and winks quite often. And Friday, Saturday, April 24th, 25th at Comedy Avenue in Lawton, Oklahoma, you can follow him on the X knot underscore Firestein. Mr. Josh Firestein. Yes, the toy chest of the West. Yes, I've heard that as well. Lawton, Oklahoma. Yeah, I'm good, man. It's the Duncan's toy chest of the West. Oh, that's mighty. So, uh. I'd like to build some momentum if you just can stop with the compulsive lying. You're doing great. I know I'm doing okay. Oh, no, that's not our primary concern. That was another one of his lies. He's trying to make a joke. I know. But I went with it just because I want to move on. Yeah. All right. Speaking of which, uh, we're going to get to the President Trump social media post. Uh, I'm going to get to the president. I'm going to get to the president. Uh, we're going to get to the president Trump social media post, uh, that he put up with him as Jesus, uh, ill advised, I will say. But before that, let's look at another portrayal of, of, of our Lord and savior, uh, Jesus Christ from South Korea and they go all out. They really do. All the stops here is how they decided to appropriately represent Jesus, Korean Jesus. I'm sure you've seen something like this at your church. That's cool. Cool. All right. Oh, it's taking up a little bit beyond the roof. Huh. Okay. I need you to come back down in a second. Surely. It still keeps going. How's he being lit? That's a champ. Yeah. No kidding. I'm sort of thinking it's the real Jesus. You saw that from like five miles away. Like, what? Please tell me he does the Luigi starts running. Look at that. Now he's just above a city skate. Metal Korean Jesus. You think this is how the real, the real resurrection went? Could people in the church even see that? Is this just to mess with the townspeak? That's what he's saying. Somebody mile away thought it was a UFO. No, they're just going to lower them onto a random building. Nope. Nope. They're moving around. Okay, God, put me down. Joke's over. We drop you in North Korea. They need Jesus. You said 40 feet. It's more than 40 feet. Mita. I do appreciate his commitment, though. He's staying in character. That man is terrified for his life, but he's like, okay, put me down. Nobody's still just kind of, you know, keeping the nobility going. They should have taken the light off of them, though. He's distracting from the rest of the show. Yeah. Well, these poor Korean ladies are on stage singing whatever they're singing. Who is that for? It would be like if there was a church in the upper east or upper west side and you were just walking in Times Square for tours taking pictures. You're like, why are Jesus in the sky? There's 20 more minutes of singing. There's 20 more minutes of singing. Without Jesus anywhere near the church. 40 feet. Done. You can't be that high on a crane without a helmet. No, I don't. That's violent. That's a blow shot. Yeah, whatever they have. You could have dropped Jesus. Not to be outdone, of course. Kim Jong-un attempted the same dramatic exit after his recent Easter speech. Oh, fuck. It's less holy. It's also more believable than it is. If you were to show me just both videos of no context, I'd be like, well, that one, that's the real one. Obviously, the real one is where Kim Jong-un strains the torquing ability of a crane. We don't have any more to offer you on that, just so you know. We really enjoyed it. There's always this. There you go. Dude, Korea and Jesus, it might be the best Jesus. No offense, guys. Pretty awesome. Korea and Jesus is also Mr. Olympia. Create the world. All right, let's go on to Eric's well-well. Look, I never take any joy when someone just screws up in their personal life because the primary news cycle regarding their life, but SWALWELL is a really special piece of crap. So he just had to suspend his campaign for governor, California, for those of you who've been following, after many, many, many, many sexual assault allegations and sexual impropriety allegations arose. Four women, some former staffers, are accusing SWALWELL of sexual assault and inappropriate conduct, according to the San Francisco Chronicle and CNN. These allegations of sexual assault are flat, false. They're absolutely false. They did not happen. They have never happened. And I will fight them with everything that I have. That's a far cry from believe all survivors. Which, ooh. Yeah, we will include. As he says that from the hotel cuck chair. Yeah, exactly. You just see the silhouette of a lady on the curtain. You're like, God, no. This is actually right now as we're talking about this live on CNN. Let's bring it up really quickly. To meet me for a drink. And I did this because I was so far removed from what had happened in 2019. I felt safe because I was established. I had a partner. I felt more secure that I could have a strictly professional relationship with this person. After that bar closed, we went to another. I went to the bathroom and I don't remember anything after that. You don't remember anything? I remember the next day. I can see flashes of that evening of him on top of me, me pushing him off, him grabbing me. It was a lot more aggressive. It was aggressive. I don't know. I don't know about this. Skepticism about all this stuff is the same as it is for every single person who makes his claim. If you can't prove it, it doesn't need to be out in the media. If there's not a police report or something that you can go and get, I'm just, I'm tired of this kind of stuff now. Eric Swallow is a piece of crap. But yeah, I'm amazed that he is running for anything and saying that he was banging a Chinese spot. Right, exactly. Like that's, he should be in charge of nothing. Now, there also has been the implication, I believe from 12 Wells Camp that this may be a hit job from the Democrat Party because Democrats were afraid that they might lose the governorship to a Republican. For those of you who don't know, California, the top two vote-getters on a primary day, they run for governor regardless of party. Right now that's two Republicans. Right now that's two Republicans. So by removing Swallow, Democrats were expecting to absorb his support and maybe rise to like one of those slots, number two. Regardless, obviously more remains to be determined here. Swallow has had a long and storied history of being a piece of crap. And of course, believe all survivors. He is one who has jumped on the bandwagon where everyone is guilty until proven innocent. And so, as much as he may be a worthy adversary, Mr. Swallow, it's time to close. Congressman Eric Swallow is suspending his campaign for California governor amid allegations of sexual assault and misconduct. Swallow denies the allegations. Time to close. Endings and beginnings are ending and beginning now. A lot has been said about me today through anonymous allegations. These allegations of sexual assault are flat false. And I will fight them with everything that I have. It's not about red team versus blue team. This is about sexual assault victims deserve justice, do the right thing. Time to close. Endings and beginnings are ending and beginning now. You go back to the beginning of the month. Look at this. It's about three and five. He was the clear favorite at this point to be the next California governor. But by Friday, his chances were already audio. Samikos could buy basically. He was down to two percent. He saw the writing on the wall. And then of course now we're at a zero percent chance as he is suspended this campaign. But Eric Swallow dropped out of this race because simply put, there was no path forward for him to be the next California governor. Time to close. Endings and beginnings are ending and beginning now. We are aware of the member of this committee having an alleged affair with a Chinese spy. I refer to as Yam Yam. Allege the fair's relationship with Yam Yam. You don't get to say that shit. That's not true. We had alleged relationship with Yam Yam. I'm going to borrow your terminology and call bullshit on your entire career in Congress. Swallow appoints his international experience while in Congress as ways to bolster the state's revenue. The president used taxpayer dollars to ask the Ukrainians to help him cheat in election. My proposal would be to do what Australia did, which would be to have a buyback period. I should be working right now. Instead, I'm pumping iron. I know that it's time for things to close. I know that it's time for things to close. If nothing else, he was on a bed groping and only fan slash stripper porn star, whatever it is with a bunch of other guys while married. No. None of it looks good. It doesn't mean rape. It doesn't mean sexual assault, but this is a guy out there who always tried to act as though he was the moral arbiter. Right. Believe all women. Believe all women. Believe all survivors. Except my accusers. Don't believe them. Don't believe any of them. It's a tale as old as time. By the way, we also have, according to Kalshee, the chances to be the next California governor for the Democrat candidates. There's Tom Steyer at 56 percent, Katie Porter at 17 percent. I'm not even super familiar with Matt Mon at 14 percent. Exactly. One that was going crazy on our staff. She seems like the most unlike. I would actually love for her to be the Democratic candidate. Is that the big old fat lady? Yes. Big old friend. I mean that big old friend. So unlikable. Yeah, according to that, that jungle primary, she, she theoretically would be the Democratic candidate if their plan, quote unquote, work. Yeah. Well, plan. I have no idea. If Gavin Newsom is running for president, his wife is going to torpedo that. I don't know if you're watching the more and more clips that just keep coming. She just hates men. She just flat out hates men. I put dresses on my sons. We'll use her. What was the recent one she said? Men. There was like some play on words. The name of her documentary, it sounds like masculinity. I can't remember what it was called. Mask that you wear in something. I don't know. It was some Mad Gabb's thing. She's an idiot and she hates men. All right. Mad Gabb's. President Trump. And I know it's, I know right now the cool kids all say, okay, he sucks. It's over. The Republican Party is done. We should vote for somebody else. We didn't get what we voted for. I've always maintained that there's quite a bit of good and there is some bad. I would say the same thing this week. It's complicated, which brings us to good Trump, bad Trump. Good Trump. That's a really bad Trump. So first up, I'd foul this mostly under good Trump. Good Trump. Enforcing a red line. People saying the blockade on the straight of hormones. It's not really a blockade. I don't, you guys let me know. What's your understanding of this as far as how the media and everyone else has covered it? This is what he posted on truth after, you know, the negotiations broke down with Iran. He said, so, so there you have it. The meeting went well. Most points were agreed to, but the only point that really mattered, nuclear was not effective immediately. The United States Navy, the finest in the world will begin the process of blockading big blockade. Any and all ships trying to enter or leave the straight of hormones. That's not exactly the case. We will also begin destroying the mines. The Iranian laid in the streets. Any Iranian who fires at us or at peaceful vessels will be blown to hell. Whoa. All caps. He then explained his unprecedented mind sweeping, mind sweeping operation in the situation room. And that does, hey, that's been a while. I'm going to do it. It's good at that game. Four, I thought it was a two. I miss it. Somebody watching is too young for that. Yeah, that's all we had. We had that in Bolo. Comment below if you remember Bolo used to play on the land network when you were in the student computer lab. You expect more of this weekdays, 11 a.m. on the stream every day. So here's the reason why, and I'll tell you what the blockade actually is. I mean, the oil revenue for Iran has been up quite a bit since the beginning of the war. It's not their peak revenue ever. Don't believe the memes out there, but they're earning about $139 million a day in revenue. That's up from about 115 million prewar. How this blockade is actually going to be implemented. It's not really a, when you think blockade, you think that means no one goes through the straight. No, what it really means is the ports, the Iranian ports. This blockade is no ships leave or enter the ports in Iran. That's really what it is. The United States is going to stop any ship from entering or exiting Iranian ports. And they also said that they're going to stop any ships that have paid a toll to Iran. I will say that seems like it might be pretty difficult to enforce. But going in or out of the Iranian ports, that basically means, here's what happened. They sat down for negotiations. Iran's been threatening this. And by the way, they've been threatening this before the war. You guys need to understand the Strait of Hormuz. This has always been a point of contention. It's been discussed in the international stage. They sat down. They said, you know what? We're going to, and they put all their cards on the table. They said, we're going to shut down the Strait. How about that? And the Trump administration said, actually, we're just going to shut down you and the Strait. How about that? That's effectively what is happening. Yeah. And this could actually take the one point of leverage they have away, which is actually fantastic. Right. How they're going to enforce it, how they're going to implement it. I don't know. But other ships should be free to go through, for example, talking about Saudi Arabia. Hey, if you China, you want to get some, you want to get some oil, you want to go deal with Saudi Arabia, you want to go deal with the other country. Fine. You just can't enter in or out. You can't enter into the ports in Iran. We're not going to let any ships leave that. So it takes away, like you said, their biggest leverage point. So what has been the response? Well, Kirstarmer of the UK, of course, said that they would not help. Oh, no. We're not supporting the blockade. It is, in my view, vital that we get the Strait open and fully open. And that's where we've put all of our efforts in the last few weeks and will continue to do so. No mention of ever assisting their allies. No. And what is he going to, is like a strongly worded letter or something to get the Strait open? Is that right? Kirstarmer's approach. Also, if this is what we're doing, what do you mean? You mean you really, really, really, really want to buy more oil from Iran? How about you go to anyone else? Why is it so important that you get it from there? Yeah. In fact, most of Iran's oil is the tastiest oil there was. So you're not even really getting Iranian oil most of the time anyway. That brings us to the next key player, China. They are having a freakout. This is from their foreign ministry. They wrote, Does trade of Hormuz is an important international trade route for goods and energy and maintaining its security, stability, unimpeded flow is in the common interest of the international community. Read that as China's interest. China's international interest. Exactly. Because you already see some Chinese companies cancelling some orders because of the rising energy prices. Now, keep in mind, like Gerald said, they buy about 80% of Iran's shipped oil. 80%. So this remains to be seen what's going to be going on. Instability obviously is going to cause oil prices to rise. But I don't think it's a bad play to simply say, All right, you know what, we're not going to completely shut down the Strait. We're going to get rid of the mines. And Iran, you don't get to play here anymore. Yeah, 100%. I think this is, he could have just been like, All right, we're going to start bombing again. I don't think that's the best strategy right now. He did threaten that that was still on the table. But he said, You know what, we're just going to take this out. Yeah, I haven't done that yet. So let's do it. Fine. You guys want to screw around? You don't have a straight at all anymore. Right. Good luck. And what do you guys will take your chance later? Of course, on my club, Rumble Premium, you let me know what you think. It needs to play out. In principle, it's a smart move. Yeah, in principle, it makes sense. It's probably one of the best levers he has to pull. This brings us to bad Trump. That's a really bad. There's no good way to get into this. Just bad Trump is this thing. That is not great. Not who is he resurrecting America? I think America, I'm sure it's symbolic use you stooge. Okay. F 22 is in the background. That's awesome. Other kind of birds and morphing in F 22s. And it looks like a cherubim over him. I will grant you that looks bad on a surface, you know, but a White House insider leaked the first draft that didn't make the cut and it is notably worse. Yeah, I will say. And he said it to us, eat of the Big Mac for it is my body. And it's tasty. Stop the quarreling. You can leave if you want to quarrel. Oh my gosh. Okay, by the way, Judas is a fag. He's gonna try and betray me with a kiss. What gross. What a McFlurry. You could just point. What are you some kind of fruit by? It's never good to compare yourself to Jesus. He didn't make it, right? So somebody else posted this back in February, but there's a pattern that this person has followed where it does make it look like Trump is Jesus and people are like, well, that's not Trump being Jesus. I'm like, all right, why the robe? He wears a suit and tie, guys. Come on. Don't be dumb about this. Just say, hey, that's not good. Don't do it, especially on Orthodox Easter yesterday. Who are you trying to piss off here? And I've said this, I've maintained it. Look, I don't know that Donald Trump is a practicing Christian at all. I know that before he ran for president, he obviously wasn't. He wasn't super familiar with the Bible, with the scripture. That's not lost on me. It's his second favorite book. Yeah, I still. Laminated. Do you remember that? Yeah, I'd still vote for him. Yeah, I'd still vote for him over over a couple hours because these people actively try to destroy everything that Christians value, everything that this country stands for. But you should probably have some wiser counsel. And that does give ammo to people now. I've seen some people now trying to say he's the Antichrist. And of course he's not because the Antichrist will be a universally beloved figure. Yes, that does not seem to describe Donald Trump. They don't know the qualification. They do not. Yeah, that image does not belong on the president's social media page. It belongs on a commemorative plate collection. Yes. Next year, Dale Earnhardt collection. Yes. And it's compounded by the fact that he posted this is after his rant against the Pope. Now I'm going to give you some quotes from the Pope and explain why I'm not the biggest fan of this Pope. I have less problem with this. Yeah, this is why it pisses people off. And I'm like, it's just these things happening in tandem will will piss off a lot of Catholics who look and I don't I don't say this to them. Catholics are very fickle voting base. You have a lot of Catholics who have voted Democrat, a lot of Catholics who have abandoned principles in the past. I mean, sure, they make up a huge portion of the pro-life movement in the United States. But to act as though the Catholic voting base has been reliably right leaning conservative pro-american or even socially very traditional. It's just not the case. Nancy Pelosi is a Catholic. Yeah. So but the voting base is pretty it can it can be relatively fickle. And so this and they really got a thing when you go after the Pope, even even Catholics who don't like the Pope don't like other people go after the Pope. Yeah. So this is what he posted on truth. He wrote Pope Leo, Pope Leo, that's a weak name for a Pope. Pope Leo, hello, Pope Leo is weak, weak on crime and terrible for foreign policy. He talks about fear of the Trump administration, but doesn't mention the fear that the Catholic Church and all other Christian organizations had during COVID when they were arresting priests, ministers and everybody else for holding church services, even when going outside and being 10 and even 20 feet apart. Leo should get his act together as Pope. Use common sense. Stop catering to the radical left and focus on being a great Pope, not a politician. It's hurting him very badly. And more importantly, it's hurting the Catholic Church. President Donald J. Trump. Now, I mean, that's kind of he's not wrong. I just think that this probably isn't the best time to because a big the contingency of people who are saying I voted for Donald Trump and he's a betrayer and we need to oust him in 25th. A lot of them are Catholic and a lot of Catholic people are listening to the Candace Owens and you know, and people like Tucker Carlson who've had a lot of Catholics on their show. Here's the truth about the Pope. Check the references. We provide them every show 11 a.m. Eastern. This Pope has made it has made a point to speak out against anything that you as a conservative, a right-leaning, a MAGA American would stand for. So we do need to apply this standard equally. For example, the Pope specifically addressed a border policy at one point he said, where the world sees threats. She, the church, sees children where walls are built. She builds bridges. So just build a bridge that goes over the Vatican walls. Yeah, they're really big. Yeah, you guys, you know, just build one that goes like over the moats and goes in there. Well, I could just go across that they wanted. Yeah, you would think that the Pope wouldn't be this tone deaf. And I don't understand why the Pope thinks it's his role to speak on immigration policy. No, I have no idea why. He said that deporting illegal immigrants was not, and this sounds like a leftist talking point, it's not pro-life. You know how the left, they'll, if ever they try and say they're a Christian or they try and invoke the Constitution or they say that they're pro-life, they're about to lie to you. Yeah. So they'll often use this talking point. They'll say, well, you're pro-life until it leaves the womb and then they're on their own for healthcare, for school, for daycare because they equate pro-life with pro-free stuff. Forever. We're just talking about not killing someone. Giving them a chance. Yeah. So the Pope wrote this. He wrote, if someone says I'm against abortion, but I'm in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don't know if that's pro-life. Well, Pope, I do. I guess you're not, I guess you're not speaking ex-cathedra on that because that is incorrect. I'd like the Pope to know. Yeah. I don't know if that's pro-life. I would prefer if you knew. I would prefer if you knew. Yeah. That would be good for the rest of all of us. That would be fantastic. But also who would, we scroll back up to the quote, he says he's treating immigrants in the United States inhumanely. Yeah. Inhuman. Inhumane. I'm sorry. Inhuman treatment of immigrants. Who's, which immigrants that come to this country are being treated inhumanely? Well, what about this? Which illegal immigrants that are given plane tickets and money to go back home to self-deport to come back in that are being caught and nicely escorted to a car if they don't resist arrest, run, shoot at cops, try to beat them up? Like, what do you say? That's exactly what I would expect out of a politician's mouth. Well, this is not the Pope. My big problem with the Pope is that he's completely insulated from not only any criticism, but answering questions. I'd ask the Pope. I'd go, okay, so right now, if someone is here illegally, if they self-deport, they can do it on an app, they get their flights paid for $2,600. I believe is what the number is now. That's the last number, yeah. $2,600 each. And then they can come back the legal way. All good. Is that, is that inhumane? No. Okay. Now, what if they don't and they stay here? Is it inhumane for us to then deport the person? Right. How many chances is enough? Is the Pope's view that you simply can't enforce laws? Is the Pope's view a globalist view that there should be no such thing as borders? Well, that would be an untenable situation. That would be an untenable view because of the Vatican, because of the fact that they do have security, because of the fact that they do have walls. I have no problem with the fact that they do. I have a problem with the fact that this Pope, who never has to answer for any of the BS that he spouts, doesn't have any kind of an answer. He said, I don't know. Well, that didn't stop him from expressing an opinion. I tell you what, he does have very strong opinions. Climate change. That's the realm of the Pope. That's good. He wrote, everyone in society through non-governmental organizations and advocacy groups must put pressure on governments to develop and implement more rigorous regulations, procedures and controls. The funny thing about that is when you talk about being pro-life, do you realize how many people are killed from green regulations and environmental policy? Have you run the numbers? If they could, a protocol now, it's the Paris Climate Agreement. How many people in third world countries would die just because of the costs of energy and the costs of food, of farming, of agriculture? I mean, these numbers have been run. We've shown them quite a few times. They keep going up, by the way. In the first world, gas prices go up. It's annoying. It's inconvenient. You may have to reschedule a vacation. You may have to make some cutbacks. For a rural family in Mexico or in Honduras, it's fatal. They die. They can't cook. They can't sanitize drinking water. They can't eat. They can't get anywhere if they're lucky enough to even have a gas-using vehicle. They don't have electric cars. This is the problem with the Pope, is the virtue signaling. He has very strong opinions on issues that completely fall outside of the realm of Popehood, Popedom, whatever you want to say. Populcy. But he doesn't have super strong, if I don't have the answer, it's always, well, I don't know. The Lord works in mysterious ways. Oh, climate change? No, we need to sign the Paris Agreement. Yeah, yeah. No, we need to get to net zero. Very, very specific on social and political issues, very vague on issues that should really be in his wheelhouse. So I think the criticism is warranted from President Trump. It's just this is not going to play well. Yeah, no. And if the Pope wants to speak on policy, he should do it broadly. Right. Like, we're going to be there to help people. If climate change really does displace people and really does cause famine and really does cause hardship on people, the church will be there as the church has always been throughout history to help people through charity. And we will do that. Will you support our mission in doing that? That's the kind of thing he can say and get people behind. Right. But to go out and say, you need to put pressure on your governments for this. It's like, well, what about the pressure of, I don't know, areas that could never grow food before, now that we've had a tiny bit of warming over the last, I don't know, 100 years, they can. And more people can survive because of it. I think the litmus test for American Catholics who are more right-leaning, who are conservative, who are MAGA, who are America first. Let's say the Pope was president. Or let's say the Pope had a political majority, the Pope party. Take away the Republican party, the Democratic party. But assume that everyone in the Pope party followed Lockstreet. I'd love to go to a Pope party. No, you wouldn't. What kind of government do you think you'd have? You'd have a leftist government. They probably wouldn't trans kids. And it would probably be pro-life. Outside of that, it would be left on every other issue. You'd have open borders. You'd have environmental regulations. Social welfare. Yeah, everywhere. Social welfare everywhere. You'd still have soda. You still would. You wouldn't have doze. You'd have soda on snap. You'd have EBT. You would have no voter ID. This person should be discounted as it relates to political issues. But it's where he loves to sound off the most and tell you what is hurting Americans and what is hurting Christians. I will tell you this. The other thing that is hurting Americans and not only Catholics, very important is high mortgage rates. Oh, hey Tim. Oh, hey Josh. Okay, see you later. Where are you going with the toilet paper? Nowhere. Just taking it to my car to test it. You're testing toilet paper in your car? Yep. You're taking it home, aren't you? Taking it home. Yeah, I'm taking a toilet paper home. You know, if you're having troubles at home, financial issues, you should look enough to be financing your home with American financing. There's no upfront cost, no hidden fees, and you'll save a lot of money. Yeah, but I'm just taking them to my car to test them. Oh, I'm sorry. Can we ditch the WWW? We don't need that. I probably not. I don't need it. I like the WWW. I get that you do, but it adds time. It makes it sound more legit. It's like Americanfinancing.net slash credit. That's a lot faster. Way better than WWW. Yeah, but where is that? Is that on the World Wide Web or is that like? It's the one with email. Is it collateral? Yeah. They're like one of those things where you just pull a little ticket off of it. By the way, we're not, a lot of people have saved a lot of money. That's why they continue to do the, I am amazed that they allow us to continue doing the sponsorship. That one is the least. They've asked for more and they get really rough. I love how casually I'm in the background and I literally go and I'm like, Josh is falling in the hallway with a bunch of toilet paper. Anyway, the TPS report. This is so crazy. The other thing about the Pope, he was just on CNN while that was playing. By the way, thank you for the raid. Dan, everyone, welcome. After this, you're going to go on to Haley Carone, if you're not a Rumble Premium member. They had his quote where he said he vowed to continue speaking out against Donald Trump, regardless of threats or criticism. Let me ask you though too, why is it the Pope always seems really emboldened to speak out against Republicans or conservatives? I don't remember any of the posts being this aggressive with Barack Obama with Biden. It seems like they're really comfortable jumping in on the doggie pile where they know they'll have a sympathetic media. That's another thing that bothers me. Is it living Europe? Yeah. Well, he also said, I'm going to continue to speak out, you know, the gospel and I'm like, that I'm in support of. That's fine. But I didn't hear that. I didn't hear that. What I heard, you know, and he's like, it was not meant to be an attack on any one person. He said it right before them. I was like, really? By the way, the criticisms of the Pope, I mean, just look at some of the past Popes. And you tell me Catholics, if we're being too harsh, I'm says not an attack on Catholicism. This is an attack on what a man says. And I'm not saying that he's not what you say he is. I'm just saying in this instance, he wasn't speaking ex-cathedra. He was saying something just as a man. So fine. That is reasonable. He's not only fallible on political issues. He is politically uneducated. He's politically illiterate. Isolated politically. Very much. In any ways. Yeah. I'd give his, I'd give his opinion on this. That's the same credence I would give Nancy Pelosi. Yeah, nothing. Now, speaking of international news, let's go. Hungary is obviously everywhere in the news today. The noted ally of President Trump, Viktor Orban, out. Peter Mayar is in. Is it Mayar? I was also want to make sure it's Peter, not Piotor, because sometimes in the Eastern block. Piotor. He won. Okay. Here's the thing. A lot of those people on the left right now, they're trying to say, this shows you because Viktor Orban was viewed as a very, was viewed as a far right nationalist. Right. Wasn't exactly if you look at his relationships with China, if you look at his stance on the United States in a multitude of ways. This guy who won Peter right here, he's actually to the right. Did you guys know this? He's actually to the right of Orban. Slide to the right. Yeah. On quite a few issues. And so anyone saying this signals that this whole sort of nationalist, that this Christian conservative, this culturally Christian movement is dying. This signals the exact opposite of that. If you look at the top parties that won in Hungary, you had the Tisa, which is Peter Mayar. Okay. And you have the Fidesz, that's Viktor Orban was number two. So that's one and two. And three was the Our Homeland Party, which is actual far right. Because the name Nazi was already taken. Right. And for people to be, I think they just want to say, hey, President Trump, Vance, they seem to be cozy with Orban. So if this guy lost, we want to tell you that it's basically a liberal who was elected. That couldn't be further from the truth. That is how they are framing it. This is a huge win for democracy and liberalism. Please take stock of who you follow and who is delivering this kind of message right now, because they're flat out wrong. I still believe in Western democracy. And I believe yesterday was a great day for Western democracy. It was a very bad day for people who over the past decade have done their best to try to destroy Western democracy, to destroy liberal democracy, liberal, a traditionally small government term, even though a lot of really stupid people don't understand that because they don't read history. They, I guess they just scroll in crayon books. Or maybe they're watching you. Yeah, no kidding. So some other positive reactions from the left. You had Barack Obama, the worst president in my lifetime wrote. Now, the victory of the opposition in Hungary yesterday, like the Polish election in 23, is a victory for democracy, not just in Europe, but around the world. Alex Soros wrote, the people of Hungary have taken back their country, a resounding rejection of entrenched corruption and foreign interference. What? Ursula von der Leyen wrote, Hungary has chosen Europe. Europe has always chosen Hungary. A country reclaims its European path. The union grows stronger. You had Hillary Clinton, Newsom, Starmor, Macron, Carney, a bunch of people. You can go check out the references praising this. And then you have some people on the right buying into that narrative, for example, and he's often writing a lot of issues. I have, like Michael Knowles wrote, dreadful news for Hungary and the West. Tommy Robinson, who's been a friend on the show quite a few times, wrote, Hungary has fallen. It'll be riddled like London, Paris, Berlin. The death of Europe spreads. Here's the thing. I get it. It's easy to go, Orban, right wing, conservative. He lost. That means that this is a swinging of the pendulum. You guys, when they say that this will now be worse than London, Peter Meyer is actually further to the right of Orban on immigration. He's to the right. To the right now. Yeah. Of Viktor Orban. He actually flat out, yes, he did say we want to become, we want to open up talks more we want to open up talks more so with the EU, the relationship, but he did that while flat out rejecting the immigration pact of the EU. He wrote, we will preserve peace and remain a safe country free of immigrants. He didn't say illegal. Yeah. He also, by the way, on policy, he vowed to completely undo Orban's, you know, he was importing foreign guest work. Again, this is a reason he was elected. The reason this guy was elected and Orban was, I think, prime minute. He was was at 15, 16 years. Then he shot himself in the foot because he was incredibly corrupt. So this guy who was in that same party said, hey, we're going to deal with the corruption. And by the way, part of that corruption is not being consistent on immigration. So this is what he actually said regarding the guest worker program. He said, guest workers have been brought in amassed to drive down wages, inflate real estate prices and cause social problems. He's going to put an end to that. Yeah. Doesn't sound like liberalism to me. On China, he promised to, quote, stop prioritizing investment from Asia. Hungary was, by the way, the top European destination for Chinese investment. Orban even allowed Chinese police officers to patrol streets in Hungary. Doesn't make any sense. Yeah. So Orban was certainly seen to the right of most people in Europe. And people could say that he was more of an isolationist. And you could say this new guy wants to open up a relationship with the EU. But the relationship is different because once upon a time with the EU, you had to take it wholesale. Now it's kind of a la carte where you go, you know what? Fine. We can work with you guys if there's some kind of economic benefit, but we're not going to actually acquiesce to your immigration policy. And you know what? We're not going to be, we're not going to be okay with China. He even went so far as using, by the way, Victor Orban allowed police officers to patrol Hungarian streets. He even allowed Chinese firefighters. Didn't work out so well. Oh, come on, come on. Oh, I'm all right. Yeah, it's just, it's a paper tiger. Other things with this new guy, which could be great for the United States. He wants to, when he talks about NATO, he wants to increase defense spending to meet the NATO demands. Now, like I've said, you can be pro-NATO because you want to be a freeloader. But to say, you know what? We actually do want to strengthen our position with NATO. And we want to set an example because everyone needs to meet their contractual amount. That is different. That's not the same as a globalist. That's someone who's acting in the benefit or in the best interest of their own country. By the way, they were, Orban, just while we talk about him being right-wing, Hungary was one of the only NATO countries to lower defense spending to be clear. Orban actively worked against President Trump by financing Russia with massive, massive energy purchases. Which he called out the rest of Europe for. Right. Yeah. Right. So it's the same thing. It's the same thing. This guy is more tough on immigration. To be clear, he's going to undo some of Orban's lenient immigration policies. He's arguably to the right of Orban on pro-traditional family values, deeply Christian. And if you look at this election, this shows you that Hungary is flat out a socially Christian conservative nation. Of course, they all want free healthcare because that's just how the area of the world. So people telling you that this is some kind of a liberal globalist coming in, either it's wishful thinking or they just want to put another loss on the scoreboard for the Trump administration. Yeah. It doesn't make any sense. I know that Vance was over there campaigning for him and said some stuff about him possibly winning or that he knew he was going to win. So that doesn't look good. So they're like, oh, okay, now we can just keep tying these guys together and see your team lost. It's like, well, actually the idea is still won. Yeah. You're fine. I mean, he's pro-EU, which is a problem. I will tell you that gives me pause. The way he approaches it seems reasonable. He's pro-wealth tax. I'm not a big fan of that. He's pro-union. He kind of leans into some of the women's issues. But it's not like the Democrat Party. This is just one of those situations where people want to simplify this in a way that is inaccurate. Yeah. It's really easy to go, Victor Orban, friend of Trump, conservative, right-leaning. He lost. Therefore, the rest of the world is turning away from Trumpism, populism. No, that's not the case. This shows us that Hungary, and this is actually really important, because what you typically see in Europe or some of these, you know, with Europe, formerly Eastern Bloc nations, they go from far right to socialist and back because they never get it right. They had Orban for a long time, who was significantly further to the right than most people in that region. Then they had an election where that guy was corrupt. They saw it, and they voted another conservative person. They voted another right-wing person. And the second party, second place, was another right-wing party. Yeah. Third place was an even further right-wing party. There is no left party in Hungary that has any kind of a viable path. Right. That, if anything, is good news. It shows you that it can be solidified and countries can reverse course and then stay that course. Yeah, exactly. Wouldn't it be great if either one Democrat or Republican that came in, it would have conservative principles? If the bedrock of that, that would be fantastic. That's what they're dealing with over there, and it's fine to work with the EU a little where you can because you just give them the finger where you don't want to, which they've already done. It would be like in the United States if an election, someone won who was a Tea Party candidate, and then next was the Republican candidate, place number two, and the third was a Libertarian candidate. That would be the closest example that I could give you. So less liberal than conservatives are pending them out to be, and certainly much more right-leaning than liberals want. And at the same time, it's important to note that Orban was not this pro-America force that people thought he was, and he definitely wasn't the dictator that the left made him out to be because he conceded power. People said he was a fascist. I don't know, if you know this fascist, don't just leave office. Yeah, they don't do it with, I think, 30-something percent of the vote counted. He's like, yeah, we lost. Everybody knew. I'm going to go to bed tonight. Yeah, I'm going to call it an early night. So mama saying it's a big win for democracy that a dictator just decided to not be it anymore. Maybe he never was. What? Who, by the way, was elected with overwhelming popularity in the past. There's a reason he was in power for a long time. Democracy was not in threat. No, never was. They just followed through with their process and they worked out for Peter. It's exactly right. So you'll start to see this develop a little bit more, but Orban was definitely a strong ally of Israel and helped block EU sanctions. So now that that is removed a little bit, I would imagine that some of those far-right people that we've talked about in the past would probably come out and be like, hey, this is actually a good thing. Yeah. And pro-Israel people would probably come out and be like, I can't believe that Orban's out. Like just some of the undertones here, like it's not just about, is it somebody who's far right or is it somebody who's got a preserved democracy? Right. They are. They are a Christian nation. There's other things at play. The thing is people in Poland and people in Hungary at large, they don't even have a chip in their brain for what you know as wokeism. Right. They're so beyond that they're not going to be fooled by it, which brings us to Sabrina Carpenter. So, you've heard me tell you that appeasing crocodiles is futile. Now, to be clear, I'm going to show you a clip from the Coachella performance where people are outraged because someone yodeled. And by yodeled, I mean, I guess it's some kind of traditional Islamic whale. I don't care. I don't like it. Now, if I were to watch this, and you were to watch this in any other context, you go, okay, sure, whatever. Unfortunately, there's outrage from the left and then capitulation from Sabrina Carpenter, where she apologized. None of that is warranted. This is the problem with the western world right now. We make things that shouldn't be things out of things that are non-things. Here is the clip of Sabrina Carpenter at Coachella and the Islamic whale that clearly sounds like a yodel. I think I heard someone yodel. It's a turkey. Is that what you're doing? I don't like it. It's my culture. It's your culture? Is yodeling? That's it. You wouldn't think that would spark some kind of outrage, but of course it did. To the point where she apologized. She should not have, but she's a leftist. And so she has to play by those rules. And by the way, they'll find another reason to destroy her. To be fair, there is some background here. Her disdain for yodeling can be traced back to her gambling days. If someone plays Plinko, she pisses her pants and forgets where she is for a few minutes. And she should have seen this coming. Should have known it would be a pro yodel crowd, especially after seeing her opener. See, this is just bad management. It's true. You know, you set her up to fail. That's not a good opener for Supreme. No, not at that set. You have to change the set. Well, it turns out that it wasn't just as simple as yodeling and her saying, shut up, I'm trying to do my act, which is a totally reasonable request. Turns out the fan was yelling some Arab cheer called the Zgruda. And I had to spend a while looking into it and I'm upset that I did. Here's what it actually is. This sound is called Zgruda in Arabic in English all elation. It's performed by women across the Mena region. But there are many variations of this across the globe. It's a long, high pitch sound representing trills of joy. Usually when someone's executed. Which is a sound made by women. Hey, that was outcast. Someone went celebrating a festive occasion, usually at weddings. Now you know what to do at your next celebration. Not that. Yeah, I'm not going to do that at my wedding. If at my wedding someone was like, I do. To be at least six guns. Yeah, absolutely. Train on them rightfully so. So of course there were some fans got upset and melted down. Like, why don't you just go, hey, look, she's shut up. She's doing her act. The person goes, this is my culture. Who cares? Your culture is totally. Who cares? Your culture should be shutting the hell up. Yeah, and watching a performance because everyone else has paid for a ticket. But we see the outrage not pop base on Xrota. Sabrina is saying that she doesn't like a cultural Arabic cheer. This is so insensitive and Islamophobic. I am very disappointed in her. By the way, using that term Islamophobic, if I was surrounded by a bunch of people who are clearly Islamic, doing that cheer, I'm not going to lie. I would be phobic. A little bit. Yeah, also you're allowed to just not like some things. You don't have to like everything just because you're famous. You have to like everything. Right. It's really annoying. It sucks. It's the worst. Like I like Polish people. I don't love pierogies. That's okay. That's a weird. That's a weird thing, but. It doesn't mean that you're lesser than. I just, I, you know, it's fine. Steven doesn't play in Pittsburgh. It's okay. I don't. I don't hate them. I won't go out of my way for them. Is that fine? Maybe it's a side. Maybe a little bit. Why are they all smelling their finger, by the way? Why they did it? That's another cultural thing. So there are a bunch of fans who are upset and outraged and you think she just like, Hey, you know what? Go screw yourself. But of course you can't do that. Of course she had to back down. Right. And like I've told you, appeasing crocodile's feudal, I guarantee you at some point a year from now, two years from now, we'll be running another story on Sabrina Carpenter where the left wasn't appeased enough and they're upset about something else. She wrote, My apologies. I didn't see this person with my eyes. How else would you see them? And couldn't hear clearly. My reaction was pure confusion, sarcasm and not ill intended, could have handled it better. Now I know what a Zoruda is. I welcome all cheers and yodels from here on out. Still not a yodel. She's still called it a yodel. I'd like that. If that's like her own little dig, she's like, I'll put the statement up, but I'm putting this in it. And to show that she's really sorry, she even released a new song with her newly hired culturally sensitive backup singers. So she's, I prefer the older one. Yeah, me too. She says you welcome any cheers at her show now. Yeah, right. About, Hey, nice day. Yeah, exactly right. That's my culture. Yeah, not cat. That's my culture. I'm a pervert lady. How about Maga? What if someone yells Maga? What if someone yells, Hey America, here. She was right from the start. This is the issue. She was, she was right. You should shut up. She's playing a show. People aren't there to hear you. My culture, no one cares. That's the, that's the self absorption that everyone has these days. They use the term narcissists. It's over. You said, don't mean this in a clinical way, but that is narcissism where you are there. There's someone on stage. People have paid $100 for tickets to watch that person. You make some random guttural sound and they go, it's my culture. I don't care. I don't care, but she can't do that because she's cultivated this leftist audience where victimhood is their currency and they're going to eat her alive. And I say that by the way, I'm not just saying it because I'm not a fan of her, though I'm not. Let's just take her very clear hatred of men, for example. Misundry, this is her. Wait, what? Sorry. Why are you being weird right now? We'll always remember you though. He was a nice one too. A voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice voice So let's call men stupid again. F*** it. And you know, this feels really good and it makes me want to like dance around the room with my friends. That last one's just culturally accurate. That happens. Yeah. Yeah, they don't know how to drive well. Yeah. But do you think that if that was reverse, if that would be okay? If it was a couple dudes in a van and some lady walking across the street. I'm just going to say, just say how women are stupid. I'll tell you right a hit. Oh, yeah. Just say that women are stupid. And what if John Mayer said that? I mean, I know this is a, it's a take as old as time. People say, well, what if the shoe was on the other foot? We were just watching the Caller Daddy podcast. Yeah. And remember that host saying, you know, like for the guy, it was with Nikki Glaser going, you know, like for the guy, like I just make him go down on me for like 20 minutes. Imagine if a guy just said that. Well, it was worse. It was worse. Hold on. I mean, they frame it right. It's if you don't want sex toys in the bedroom, you'll have to go down on me for 20 minutes. Yeah. That's worse. Unless you just do 20 minutes of this. Yeah. Just imagine if a guy were to go, you know, if she just, if she wants me to make it, she wants me to make it enjoyable for her, then, you know, I make her go down on me for 20 minutes. The guy would be rightfully seen as a piece of crap. And I will say this. The way that women talk about men in a hateful way, and Sabrina Carpenter is one of the, you know, a notable offender, I just don't see for men, if men are critical of women, if men say women are bad at X and men are good at Y, right? They'll say that's the mannest fear and it's this anti-woman take. I will say watching and I've spent some time now, I hate to say consuming female-centric content like the Caller Daddy podcast. They are all just awful. And by awful, I mean, I have never once in my life, you guys can comment below because there will be women reading these comments. I have never once known somebody, a man, to denigrate, insult and talk about how his life partner, wife or long-term girlfriend is awful in bed and share that with everyone else in detail. These women do it all the time. The way they refer to 50% of the population, it shows a deeply rooted hatred. And it also shows something that is completely incompatible with men in the 21st century. This is not going to be fixed. It's not going to be fixed until women start policing their own. Just say guys are stupid. You wonder why guys are saying I'm not signing up for marriage at this point? Nobody stopped her when she was saying, I did it when I was 10. I just said guys are stupid because, okay, so you've hated guys since you were 10. And by the way, the song where you're saying you can't find the right men, no, they're out there. They just are not interested in you. She was a Disney star, so there might be some good reason to hate them. No, understandable. Fine. Maybe there's some trauma there. But listen, the guy's the really good guys. I'm not talking about a guy that looks maxing or something and wants to be with a famous person. I'm talking like really good guys. They don't want that. That's not the problem. The problem is that they're not there. They just don't want you. You're the problem. Well, and women don't want. What she's saying when she's saying a man who's jacked and kind. She doesn't just mean muscles. She doesn't just mean biceps. She means a man who is masculine, who can provide and protect, but is also really nice. The truth is, a man who's going to be most capable at that is not going to be the easiest to get along with. A man who has the grit, the stick-to-itiveness to whether it's build a muscular frame, become incredibly accomplished in any type of sporting endeavor or business, that's a guy who needs to be driven, who needs to live life aggressively, who needs to take risks, and he's not a guy who's going to have a whole lot of tolerance for your emotional bullshit. He's not. He's not going to have time for it. So what they really mean is, I want all the things that are convenient at different moments in time. Men have changed what they expect from men and what they want in men drastically, and it depends on the decade. What men want from women is the same thing that they've wanted since we were cavemen. It really hasn't changed, and that's why if we're going to fix this situation, it can't be incumbent upon men who have entirely reasonable expectations, boundaries, wants. They've been remarkably consistent, and they're more accurate at assessing it. I've always said the dating issue, the dating pool, if you want to know how to fix it, just look at those two charts. They had women rate men on a scale from one to ten. They had men rate women. Women rating men was a reverse hockey stick craft, meaning 80% of men were below average. Men rating women was a perfect bell curve. They were like, yeah, she's cute, she's average. I want jacked, and I want ripped, and I want big, and I want strong, and I want disciplined, and I want driven, but I also want him to drop all that and make time for me whenever I deem it convenient. Yeah, you're not going to find a guy who's strong, and protective, and takes the lead, and also just does anything you tell him to all the time. Right. You can hit you on the pillow or whatever. Yeah. It doesn't mean he has to be a dick. No. That's what we're saying. No. But he's not going to be nice, and the fact is there are plenty of nice guys around you. Plenty of those guys. Go to any factory nearby. Go to any office space. You will find plenty of those guys. That's not what she wants. No. She wants a 10. She wants to do whatever it is that she says. And this is the root prop. If you want to know the problem with the Western world what's facing the United States, Marxism and its offshoot feminism. That is what has permeated our institutions. That is the reason for LGBTQ AIP. It's a reason for abortion up until an on-demand period. It's a reason for the, it's the reason for a giant welfare state. It's the reason for open borders. It's all based on this false notion of compassion, and you see it play out. For a lady, rightfully, who is the performer saying, I, I, I, guys, can you just not yodel in the middle of my act? Has to back down and say, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. Please everybody interrupt the performance for everyone else by continuing to do your Islamic screech. It's like the Muslim yee-haw. Pretty much. Except. We're like a Middle Eastern grito. Far more terroristy. Yeah. I don't want to hear it. Now that I know that it's not yodeling, that it's Islamic, I like it less. Yee-haw would sound good on a terrorist though. Yeah, it would sound fine. Yeah, come up with a suicide vest. Yee-haw, mother. I would be like, oh, is this, oh, it's a joke terrorist. And then I'd be dead. Yeah, yeah, you wouldn't be dead. By the way, we are going to continue. I forgot to tell you, I went a little bit late.
