We 16 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 2: don't We don't know the ideological leanings of this person. 17 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 2: We don't know, if you know, they could be politically 18 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 2: all over the blue. 19 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:42,840 Speaker 4: We don't know. But let me ask you guys this question. 20 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 2: Do you think I'm right that even if it is 21 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 2: like a clear cutcase of like some white nationalist or 22 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,879 Speaker 2: groper type or whatever that this guy turns out to be, 23 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 2: that Trump will just pretend that it's otherwise or use 24 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 2: this anyway to his ends. 25 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 5: I'm curious about him saying yesterday he had some sense 26 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:07,759 Speaker 5: of the motive before this. That tells me that maybe 27 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 5: they think or they thought they had reason to believe 28 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 5: that there's some I don't know, like what is going on? 29 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 2: Were they going off the supposed trends in super bullets. 30 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: I mean, we didn't spend enough time on that because 31 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 2: it was so it's so disgusting to me that the 32 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 2: Wall Street Journal ran with that, And apparently it turned 33 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,759 Speaker 2: out there were like some arrows like potentially already printed 34 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 2: on the bullets, because there are little like markings on 35 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 2: there that they were like these arrows, I think that 36 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 2: must mean he's pro trans which was completely invented, and 37 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 2: you know, all kinds of lay people. When this news 38 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,759 Speaker 2: came out of like markings on the bullets indicating transgender ideology, 39 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 2: people were like, what would that even be? But apparently 40 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 2: no one at the Wall Street Journal that reprinted this 41 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 2: thought for two seconds to ask that question. 42 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 5: Or they reported, well, here's also what's interesting is that 43 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 5: they reported so Steven Krab got it first, and the 44 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 5: journal was probably rushing because of Stephen Crowder, which is 45 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 5: already just like what the hell? But they reported that 46 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 5: ATF was taking these markings seriously, and the journal probably 47 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:20,799 Speaker 5: failed to contextualize how thin the like evidence was that 48 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,919 Speaker 5: that was, you know, something to take seriously. But what 49 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 5: it says to me is that somebody at ATF was 50 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,119 Speaker 5: taking it. 51 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 6: Very, very seriously. And so because of that. Okay, here, 52 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 6: so we've got a press conference coming. 53 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 7: In no way, I mean, real quick to Chris. But 54 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 7: like Trump said, he I don't care. Trump is telling 55 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 7: Trump Trump already answered your questions. Yeah, that's probably so, 56 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 7: I don't care who did this. 57 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, the problem is, yeah, sure we got radicals on 58 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 2: the right, but they're doing it for the right reasons. 59 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:58,959 Speaker 2: I mean, that's what you know, that's the whole justification 60 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 2: for January six.

Like clearly this person 249 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 2: was very online, Like we can say that, yeah for sure, 250 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 2: with the language. 251 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 4: You know, the use of memes. 252 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 6: You know, it looks like a gaming keyboard in the picture, the. 253 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:49,319 Speaker 4: Board in the picture. 254 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean just and also just that's the life 255 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 2: of a twenty two year old man oftentimes in uh 256 00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 2: in this day and age. 257 00:13:58,840 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 4: Not to sound like. 258 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 6: But it's true. 259 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:07,559 Speaker 2: Really, so person was clearly very online, and there's certainly enough, 260 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 2: you know, like just the fact that there's any anti 261 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 2: anti fascist stuff in there is going to be enough 262 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 2: for Trump and co. To say to say this is 263 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,679 Speaker 2: that's a good point on the left, you know, it's 264 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 2: radical Marxist blah blah blah. 265 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 4: So that's certainly what they'll be going with. 266 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 14: You know. 267 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 2: Whether that is fully the case or not, I think 268 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 2: it still remains to be seen because the indications are 269 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 2: kind of all over the place, like the if you're 270 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 2: reading this, you're gay, lmao. I don't know, don't know, guys. 271 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's unclear, uh right now which direction this is 272 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 5: going in. Because to me, when I look back on 273 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 5: the Minneapolis shooter, I don't think it's it's unfair for 274 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 5: the right to say that whatever was going on ideologically 275 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 5: on sex and gender clearly played into that. But also 276 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 5: it was troll language, and when in that case the 277 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 5: shooter died, so it's almost impossible to decipher the troll 278 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 5: language from a mentally ill person and no restruction or 279 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 5: the other that it. 280 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 6: Was going in. This person is alive. This person is alive. 281 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 5: And actually, as we pulled out of the presser, I 282 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 5: just saw this update from the New York Times authorities 283 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 5: in this news conference have described extensive evidence that they 284 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 5: say ties the suspect and custody the shooting of Charlie Kirk, 285 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 5: including statements to relatives suggesting that he committed the crime, 286 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 5: social media messages, and physical evidence. So I would say, 287 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 5: at least in this case, the odds of us getting 288 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 5: a much more complete picture of where this person was 289 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 5: coming from. And this is a good thing, by the way, 290 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 5: just exploded, because otherwise you get into ink blot test 291 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 5: territory where you can kind of laughch on to one 292 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 5: part of the picture or another part of the picture, 293 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 5: and it's more easily used as a football. So if 294 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 5: you can get more clarity in this case, I think 295 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 5: that is like a huge blessing. 296 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 6: But we'll see. 297 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 2: Well, the other thing is just you know, even if 298 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 2: let's say that he had been killed or killed himself, 299 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 2: or you know, the cops ha killed him or he'd 300 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 2: killed himself or whatever, then the conspiracies would also run wild, 301 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 2: right like the fact that he they have him, that 302 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 2: he's alive, that he can speak for himself. Not that 303 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 2: it's going to put all conspiracy theories to bed, but 304 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 2: it will put you know, it will make it more 305 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 2: difficult for those to gain I think widespread public acceptance 306 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 2: and traction. And I think I think it matters a 307 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 2: lot that they have this guy. You know, listen, and 308 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 2: I've already talked about how I think Trump is like 309 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 2: the worst person possible to be our president at a 310 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 2: moment such as this. Part of why I obviously posed 311 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 2: him into the election, part of why I was very 312 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 2: deeply concerned about what a second Trump administration would mean 313 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 2: and would do for this country and for the world 314 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 2: at large. But you know, I think like just the 315 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 2: fact of having a suspect who at this point at 316 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 2: least very much looks like this is the guy at least, 317 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 2: then you know that it helps relieve some of the 318 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,719 Speaker 2: like the mystique and some of the theories, and potentially 319 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 2: some of the like you know, follow on inspiration, because 320 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 2: you know you're gonna see him not go out in 321 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 2: a blaze of glory, but you know, be humiliated in 322 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 2: a prison jumpsuit and you know, brought pretty low. So 323 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 2: I hear you get like, I think those things matter. 324 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 6: I think that's I hope that's true. I think that's 325 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 6: likely true. 326 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 5: On the other hand, it does bother me or It 327 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 5: does worry me that you get into and it's too 328 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,159 Speaker 5: early even to be speculating too much, but you end 329 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 5: up with like Charles Manson, cult around someone. I don't 330 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 5: mean like a literal cult, but like a cult following 331 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 5: where people are obsessed and get fixated on someone in 332 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 5: prison for you know, just cause, or like even Mangioni, 333 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 5: you see some of this after he said he was innocent, 334 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 5: which means you could like really be mister directing people 335 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 5: in different ways. Hopefully that doesn't happen here, but says 336 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 5: like I had nothing to do with this. I'm just 337 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 5: to quote Lee Harvey Oswald, I'm just a patsy. So 338 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 5: I guess there's still always potential that things could go 339 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 5: in a bad direction. But yeah, I agree Chris, I 340 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 5: think this is likely a very good sign. 341 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 6: Yeah. 342 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 2: Well, and he's not as good looking as Mangioni, so 343 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 2: will be less inspirational for people. 344 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 4: Tell me, I'm. 345 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: Hawaiian. 346 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,120 Speaker 7: I don't seen any Hawaiian gear yet, otherwise I think 347 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 7: you'd see a lot of people calling him a boogoloo dude. 348 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 6: Well, that was a thing. 349 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 5: I mean that movement basically collapsed too. Yeah, that was 350 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 5: that was around that was like a Proud Boy adjacent 351 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 5: if I'm remember incorrectly. 352 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 7: Yeah, but yeah, but kind of wacky and cultish and 353 00:18:54,880 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 7: yeah and extremely online like trolley, very trolly.

They 369 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 2: delayed that press conference yesterday, was supposed to be in 370 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 2: the afternoon and reportedly, you know, it ended up not 371 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:02,159 Speaker 2: happening till like nine o'clock n at night, reportedly because 372 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 2: they were waiting for Cash and maybe Bongino as well 373 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 2: to get into town and then they just you know, 374 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 2: stood there like idiots during the press like they hadn't 375 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 2: they didn't actually speak or participate at all. So you 376 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 2: delayed this press conference. They claimed it because it was 377 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 2: because of rapid developments, which made everybody think, oh, they 378 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 2: must be on the trail. That was not the case 379 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 2: at that point, just so that he could be there 380 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 2: for the photo ops. So clearly he was trying to 381 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 2: project a lot of authority here in this particular press 382 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 2: conference and a lot of command and using a lot 383 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 2: of very Trumpian language about how historic the man hunt 384 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 2: was and that's what happens when you let good cops 385 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 2: be cops, was one of the things that he said 386 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 2: to try to cover the fact that he did not 387 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 2: come across as a strong leader here. And there was 388 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 2: also a reporting about, listen, we know that a bunch 389 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 2: of FBI agents have been pulled off at their jobs 390 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 2: to assist ice. We know some of them have been 391 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 2: like roaming the streets in DC. We know that the 392 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 2: head of the Salt Lake City FBI office was fired 393 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 2: we're not really sure why in recent weeks as well. 394 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 2: So a lot of cya in this press conference from 395 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 2: Cash Betel as well. 396 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 5: Well, that's I mean, again, what we're learning just minute 397 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 5: by minute here is the suspect. I find this very disturbing, 398 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 5: and I think it should continue to disturb people, whether 399 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 5: or not we can, you know, rightfully celebrate that the 400 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 5: pictures were put out there and enough that someone came forward. 401 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,679 Speaker 5: That's all good, and I hope justice has served. This 402 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 5: is a stone cold assassin who was able to escape 403 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 5: a densely a densely packed event on a college campus 404 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 5: and stay at large for over twenty four hours, so 405 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 5: god knows what could have happened in that time period. Thankfully, 406 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 5: you know, it doesn't look like anyone else was hurt. 407 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 5: It doesn't look like that was the case. It doesn't 408 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 5: look like more damage was done the twenty four hours. 409 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:04,360 Speaker 5: But if you have, again, a stone cold assassin who 410 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 5: murders a political speaker in broad daylight in a densely 411 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:12,119 Speaker 5: packed area, I have no stomach to celebrate their father 412 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,120 Speaker 5: walking them into or their father turning them in more 413 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 5: than twenty four hours after that happened. I don't think that, 414 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 5: at least as of right now, reflects good police work 415 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 5: at all. I actually think that picture of him from 416 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 5: surveillance cameras. 417 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 6: Probably could have been released. 418 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 5: I don't want money Morning cornerback to me, quarterback it, 419 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:32,479 Speaker 5: but it does seem to me that could have been 420 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 5: released within three hours of. 421 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 6: The event happening rather than twenty four. 422 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 5: So you have this mass panic, you have misinformation being 423 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 5: leaked to the press in the twenty four hours because 424 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,959 Speaker 5: there was a killer on the loops, presumably in Utah. 425 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 5: So I just I think, you know, it's too early 426 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 5: to say any of that definitively because we don't know 427 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 5: what was happening behind the scenes, but I think it's 428 00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 5: a very high possibility that this was actually a not great, 429 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 5: a less than adequate investigation and law enforcement response. 430 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 2: Not to mention the lack of prevention, when we know 431 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 2: that this guy had been spotted on the roof multiple 432 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 2: times prior to Charlie Kirk's arrival, and this tip was 433 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 2: apparently you know, provided and nothing done. You know, the 434 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 2: law enforcementisode, Charlie had his own security detail, and then 435 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:30,199 Speaker 2: there were apparently only six police officers there to secure 436 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 2: the event, which you know, I know, like certainly the 437 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 2: landscape for people doing public events of this sort going 438 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 2: forward is going to be a very you know, very 439 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 2: very different. I saw Ben Shapiro is apparently going to 440 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,479 Speaker 2: pick up the rust of this tour. This was supposed 441 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 2: to be the first stop, first step, first stop on 442 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 2: this new Charlie Kirk College tour. 443 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 4: So he's going to pick that up. 444 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 2: But you know, also we have to look at like, 445 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 2: were there things that were missed leading up to the 446 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 2: day that could have prevented did this horrific series of events? 447 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 2: You know, for them, this horrific murder to start with. 448 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, And I mean, obviously I have a lot of 449 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 5: thoughts on that because part of like, I'm on the 450 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,199 Speaker 5: board of a group that does lectures for students and 451 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 5: student chapters and all of that and have done it myself. 452 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 5: And I checked in with some of my friends in 453 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 5: that space and they made an interesting point, which is 454 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 5: that our discourse has gotten so poisoned that it's now 455 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 5: actually also difficult to do indoor events because when you 456 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 5: do an indoor event, trolls will. 457 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,160 Speaker 6: Like buy up all of the tickets. 458 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 5: And so it's actually why you've seen a lot of 459 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 5: conservative speakers start doing outdoor events because it kind of 460 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 5: makes it easier to be in front of the public 461 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 5: and when you're doing campus stuff.

There's 527 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 5: potential law enforcement going into Memphis. It's not as though 528 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 5: this is a slow August news cycle as it was, 529 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 5: you know, maybe a couple of weeks ago. This is 530 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 5: a packed news cycle, and it just seems so hard 531 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 5: to focus on anything else. 532 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 2: Emily, how do you think that the that this murder 533 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 2: will change like influencer culture and public events and how 534 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 2: people think about their you know, their what they're doing 535 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 2: and how much they're available, how what their security situation 536 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 2: looks like? Like what are you hearing from people on 537 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 2: the conservative side on that. 538 00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 5: I mean, I'm scheduled to be on Megan Kelly's tour 539 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 5: this fall, actually on a stop in San Antonio with Glenn, 540 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 5: and you can imagine Glenn. I can't imagine the security 541 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 5: that Glenn has to worry about constantly. 542 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 6: So, I mean, I haven't heard anything in that space. 543 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 6: I don't know what's up. 544 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 5: I assume everything is going as planned, but I also 545 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 5: just am so I don't know about you guys, Like 546 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 5: I'm so blackpilled that a lot of what you know, 547 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 5: elite influencer prominent, high profile influencer culture says it just 548 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 5: seems like there's such a dark subculture of irony posting 549 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 5: and all of that that I'm I'm. 550 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 6: Glad I liked how Dean Withers reacted. 551 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 5: I thought that was extremely classy, and I thought his 552 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 5: raw emotion was really powerful. And I think, you know, 553 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 5: probably eighty percent of gen Z watches Dean Withers, whether 554 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 5: than the left of the right, and says that was 555 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 5: a really that was the appropriate reaction. 556 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 6: That's what this country should be about. 557 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 5: Or Jank like that was that's exactly what this country 558 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 5: should be about, but doesn't to some extent. This is 559 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 5: the problem is with the other twenty percent or ten 560 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 5: percent or whoever it is, who are not at all. 561 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 5: I mean, they feel like they have no control or 562 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 5: agency and they don't give a fuck what you know, 563 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 5: how Dean Withers. 564 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 6: Or Jank reacts or how anyone else reacts. 565 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 5: It just doesn't matter to them because it's all cringe 566 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 5: and everything is ironic and there's a nihilism to it 567 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 5: that I mean. I think influencers are probably going to 568 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,959 Speaker 5: do some really great stuff over the next year and 569 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 5: be great about civic debate and push each other in 570 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 5: public and you know, try to have like really hard conversations. 571 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 5: I think that's great. Do maybe more of what we 572 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 5: do which is left on right as as often as possible. 573 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 6: I think that's all great. 574 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 5: But to me, I don't know that that makes any 575 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 5: difference whatsoever with the five percent of just utterly nihilistic 576 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 5: people who were disillusioned with the political system. 577 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, unfortunately, I'm less hopeful that that even will be thencome. 578 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 2: I mean, I guess for some influencers, but most of 579 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 2: what I saw was, you know, I mean, frankly, most 580 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 2: of what I saw often the right, from Trump on down, 581 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 2: was like, this is war. We want vengeance, Let's crack 582 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 2: down on free speech, Let's destroy them. You know, they 583 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 2: want to kill us, this is this is war, et cetera. 584 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 2: And so I didn't really see many people out there 585 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 2: using it as a moment to say, hey, let's come 586 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 2: together and you know, let's turn down the temperature and 587 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 2: resolve our differences. So and you know, again, you've got 588 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 2: an arsonist in the in the White House. I just 589 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 2: you know, Ryan, I know you were one of the 590 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 2: reasons we really wanted to have you on yesterday, and 591 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 2: you were traveling so here and able to but we 592 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 2: were trying to think of historic parallels to this moment, 593 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 2: because you knows, as awful as it is for someone 594 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 2: to take a shot of the president. 595 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 4: That's part of American history. There's always going to be people. 596 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 2: Who want to kill president, even you know, even the legislators, 597 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 2: the Minnesota legislators, that legislator who was killed in the 598 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 2: legislators that were targeted. It's like, okay, well these are 599 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 2: still political officials. Like very unsettling. But part of what 600 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 2: made this so shocking and really sort of solidified for 601 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 2: me that we're living through this very different era, like 602 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 2: it's not new, we're living through it is the fact 603 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 2: that he is this. You know, he's an influencer, he's 604 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 2: an activist. Obviously, it hits really close to home. But 605 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 2: you know, what do you see in terms of historic parallels? 606 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 2: Are there other periods of American life that we can 607 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 2: look to as being even somewhat analogous here? 608 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 7: Yeah, And I watched you guys talk about it yesterday 609 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 7: and Soccer's right, So yeah, I said, you know, I 610 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 7: couldn't think of anything other than the pre Civil War period, 611 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 7: which is very ominous because you know, that's a dark 612 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 7: like fifteen years heading into what then becomes the Civil War. 613 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 7: And he he flagged them famous example yesterday which was 614 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 7: a which is this guy Elijah Lovejoy who was I 615 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 7: believe in Ohio, either Kentucky or Ohio newspaper editor who 616 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 7: was a hardcore abolitionist and murdered by you know, bro, 617 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 7: you know, pro slavery forces. His cousin. I'm not his cousin. 618 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 7: I think it was his brother. Oh what people can 619 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 7: wikipedie all this. But his brother was Owen Lovejoy, who 620 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 7: was a congressman who was anti slavery congressman who was 621 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 7: also turns out a a an ally of then wig 622 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 7: politician Abraham Lincoln. And when when Lincoln was running for president, 623 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 7: it was it was really there was there was a 624 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 7: lot of skepticism about him from the anti slavery side. 625 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 7: It was Lincoln really with us or not? And it 626 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 7: was Owen Lovejoy who basically was Lincoln's kind of validator 627 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 7: to the left saying no like and and you know, no, no, 628 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 7: he's one of us. He just can't really say it 629 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 7: because he's trying to win a national election. And Ohen 630 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 7: Lovejoy got so much of his own credibility, not just 631 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 7: from his own politics, but from the fact that he 632 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:11,280 Speaker 7: was the brother of this martyred anti slavery editor Elijah 633 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 7: Lovejoy and martyrs play a radicalizing role in in all movements. 634 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 7: You know, Chris Edges mentioned this yesterday on Twitter that 635 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:28,400 Speaker 7: when when when movements, When when somebody has martyred in 636 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 7: a movement like Charlie Kirk. 637 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:30,359 Speaker 8: Just was. 638 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 7: It, it sanctifies violence, no matter what that particular person 639 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 7: felt about violence. In Kirk's case, he was, you know, 640 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 7: strongly for discourse. You can hate what he said, but 641 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 7: he was about persuasion and argumentation. You can you can 642 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 7: hate that he was for argumentation on behalf of something 643 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 7: that you think is terrible, but he was not advocating 644 00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:00,840 Speaker 7: for for violence. But what happens with his martyrdom is 645 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 7: that now people in the movement who call for discussion 646 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,799 Speaker 7: and debate will say, no, you know, Charlie Kirk tried that, 647 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,719 Speaker 7: or you know, Elijah Lovejoy tried that, and look what 648 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 7: happened to him. He was killed by our evil enemies. 649 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 7: And the only thing we can do is war like that. 650 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 7: That's the only option that's that's left to us. And 651 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:29,240 Speaker 7: if you don't do that, you are betraying the legacy 652 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 7: of our marker. And and it's very hard internally in 653 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 7: those factional arguments to argue against that, even if you 654 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 7: can point to and this states, you know, not that 655 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 7: Charlie Kirk is MLK, but like MLKA was very you know, 656 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 7: all about nonviolence. But what a lot of people said 657 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 7: afterwards is we'll look what it got him. You know, 658 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 7: it got him killed. The only path forward is to 659 00:35:56,719 --> 00:36:00,760 Speaker 7: fight for him, and to fight violently for him. 660 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 5: Well yeah, because it's I forget who said this, but 661 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 5: it it's it shows someone who's like trying to have 662 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 5: a back and forth and trying to say, like, let's 663 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 5: let's debate. Let's uh, you know, debate really rowdily if 664 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 5: that's an adverb, but let's let's do it. 665 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 6: And that effort was ended with a bullet. 666 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:31,280 Speaker 1: So what messages that say, don't do that anymore? 667 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 6: Like it's not your gen z. 668 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,720 Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk has been an ever present fixture of your 669 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 5: social media diet for five to ten years, and that 670 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:42,880 Speaker 5: doesn't matter whether you're political or not. This kid was 671 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 5: on south Park. This guy was on South Park because 672 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,279 Speaker 5: he was well known enough to be parodied on. 673 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:50,319 Speaker 6: A pop culture platform like that. 674 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 5: And you have for years been scrolling through this guy 675 00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 5: yelling at the libs, debating on college campuses all of 676 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:03,319 Speaker 5: that on a podcast, and suddenly the video that you 677 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:07,319 Speaker 5: scroll past is him engaged in that very say, same 678 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 5: act and ending literally in a geyser of blood. The 679 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 5: point that some people will take from that is, you know, 680 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 5: dialogue doesn't work. It doesn't work because you can end 681 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 5: it with a bullet and that's a horrifying there's a 682 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 5: horrifying takeaway that people might walk away with. 683 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 1: Yeah. 684 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 2: Chris Hedges wrote a piece Brian, I don't know if 685 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 2: you read it that talked some about, you know, the 686 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 2: role of the martyr, and I thought made some very 687 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 2: salient points about the way that a martyr can be 688 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 2: used in a movement to further radicalize. And this isn't speculative, 689 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 2: Like you can go and look on the timeline at 690 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 2: the number of people who were saying that's it, gloves 691 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 2: are off. 692 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:52,359 Speaker 4: Now we're waging war. 693 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 2: They want to kill us, and then President of the 694 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 2: United States, as we played earlier, saying you know, well, 695 00:37:58,160 --> 00:37:59,439 Speaker 2: you know, it would be nice if we could solve 696 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 2: it at the ballot, but that's not really possible because 697 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 2: it's we don't even have a ballot box. 698 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:05,720 Speaker 4: It's so rigged, et cetera, et cetera. 699 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 2: So you know, that's what's like when you add those 700 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 2: the sense of political existential stakes, which in some ways, 701 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 2: you know, I mean the states of politics are high. Right, 702 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:22,800 Speaker 2: there's I don't want to sugarcoat it, like there is 703 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 2: a reality that the political stakes are high in fact, 704 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 2: and then you add to it this tinder box of 705 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:35,759 Speaker 2: gun culture, untreated mental illness, mass inequality, increasing the economics 706 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 2: that we have been covering the economic numbers this week, 707 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 2: but they're not looking great. Things continue to trend to 708 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:45,960 Speaker 2: higher inflation, higher inflation, higher unemployment, more jobless claims, et cetera. 709 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 2: And you know, and then you have these other existential 710 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 2: fears over AI, over climate crisis, over you know, migration 711 00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:01,160 Speaker 2: for some see that as an existential, you know, existential 712 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 2: type fear. And you're looking at you're looking at a 713 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 2: powder keg. That's that's the sense. And you know, Ryan, 714 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 2: do you think that the so I don't. I don't 715 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,640 Speaker 2: particularly enjoy the pre Civil war comparison. That one is 716 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 2: really scary. I don't love the seventies comparison either, but 717 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:22,600 Speaker 2: I guess it's somewhat less scary. Like do you think 718 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 2: do you see parallels with that time period as well. 719 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 7: The yes, and probably more so with than than with 720 00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:32,880 Speaker 7: pre Civil War, because, as you pointed out on the 721 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 7: show yesterday, the slaver class and also the anti slavery 722 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 7: folks properly understood the fight over slavery as as existential 723 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 7: and fundamental to the soul of the country. What is 724 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 7: what is that today? 725 00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:54,600 Speaker 1: Like that? 726 00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 7: Does that doesn't exist? Like that the two parties agree on, 727 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 7: like most things, Ran, I. 728 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,360 Speaker 5: Don't know if you've you've ever read the biography of 729 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,279 Speaker 5: Barry Goldwater that Lee Edwards wrote. 730 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:10,240 Speaker 6: It's a he was a historian. 731 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:11,839 Speaker 5: He was actually at the Heritage Foundation for a really 732 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:13,880 Speaker 5: long time, but he was Goldwater's comms director. 733 00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:17,200 Speaker 6: He was at the March on Washington. He was involved 734 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 6: in a lot of the. 735 00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:22,360 Speaker 5: Like conservative political activism in the rise of the Reagan Revolution. 736 00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 5: And my friend Chris Bedford and I talked to him 737 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 5: in June of twenty twenty as DC was like in 738 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 5: a state of rolling crisis and asked him how it 739 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 5: compared to nineteen sixty eight. And I've taken a lot 740 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,719 Speaker 5: of heat for reposting this just in the last like 741 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 5: I don't know, forty eight hours whatever it is now, 742 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 5: But he said, he told us when we asked how 743 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 5: it compared to nineteen sixty eight, I was kind of 744 00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:48,719 Speaker 5: like saying, like pushing him. I thought to say, like, no, 745 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 5: it's not as bad, don't be hysterical whatever. And he said, 746 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,719 Speaker 5: now it's worse than nineteen sixty eight because some of 747 00:40:54,760 --> 00:41:00,120 Speaker 5: those like institutional points of consensus have frayed, and that 748 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 5: is a very very different time to and that is 749 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 5: like so that you do the Civil War parallels feel 750 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 5: more accurate in a point like that. 751 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:15,480 Speaker 2: So, guys, I want to sorry. People are sharing a 752 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:17,359 Speaker 2: clip and now let me see if I can play 753 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 2: it of the governor talking about how family members believe 754 00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:27,000 Speaker 2: that Robinson had become more political in recent years. So 755 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 2: let me go ahead and see if I can share 756 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:31,719 Speaker 2: this clip and we can react to it. 757 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:36,400 Speaker 14: On the other side, investigators interviewed a family member Robinson, 758 00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 14: who stated that Robinson had become more political in recent years. 759 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:44,280 Speaker 14: The family member referenced a recent incident in which Robinson 760 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:47,719 Speaker 14: came to dinner prior to September tenth, and in the 761 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:52,400 Speaker 14: conversation with another family member, Robinson mentioned Charlie Kirk was 762 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 14: coming to UVU. They talked about why they didn't like 763 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 14: him and the viewpoints that he had. The family member 764 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 14: also stated Kirk was full of hate and spreading hate. 765 00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:06,719 Speaker 14: The family member also confirmed Robinson had a gray Dodge Challenger. 766 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:12,600 Speaker 14: Investigators identified an individual as the roommate of Robinson. Investigators 767 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 14: interviewed that roommate, who stated that his roommate, referring to Robinson, 768 00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 14: made a joke on discord. Investigators asked if he would 769 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,239 Speaker 14: show them the messages on discord. He opened it and 770 00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:27,239 Speaker 14: showed several messages to investigators and allowed investigators to take 771 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 14: photos of the screen as each message was shown by 772 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:35,760 Speaker 14: Robinson's roommate. These photos consisted of various messages, including content 773 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:39,640 Speaker 14: of messages between the phone contact named Tyler with an 774 00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 14: emoji icon and Robinson's roommate's device. 775 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:48,399 Speaker 2: So the commentary there again as that spoke to a 776 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:57,720 Speaker 2: relative who had been with Tyler just recently. Tyler mentioned 777 00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:00,799 Speaker 2: Charlie's coming into down, talked about why he hated them 778 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,520 Speaker 2: him and said he was full of hate. I can 779 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:06,440 Speaker 2: tell you the what a lot of people on the 780 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:10,160 Speaker 2: right are saying online is they're tying it into Oh, 781 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:15,000 Speaker 2: he went to college and became radicalized, so you know, 782 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 2: and radicalized against the right and you know, became this 783 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:25,439 Speaker 2: like murderous antifa guy, and so you can already see 784 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:29,480 Speaker 2: you know, the obviously this administration already has been very 785 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 2: aggressive against universities. The right has been very this has 786 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 2: been part of a political ideological project anyway, So I 787 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:40,239 Speaker 2: fully suspect that piece will be used further to go 788 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:41,279 Speaker 2: after and. 789 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 7: You know, maybe this is maybe this is me just 790 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 7: reaching for what I want to be true. But uh, 791 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 7: if filled with hate recently becoming filled with hate, would 792 00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:59,279 Speaker 7: they would they be using that in the context of 793 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:03,720 Speaker 7: becoming anti fascist. 794 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 1: I couldn't tell that, yeah, filled with hate. 795 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 2: I couldn't tell if he was saying that he was 796 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:14,960 Speaker 2: filled with hate Tyler, or whether he was saying Charlie 797 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:16,760 Speaker 2: Kirk was filled with hate and that's why he didn't 798 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 2: like him. 799 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 6: Right. 800 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 2: It was a little bit unclear in what the governor 801 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 2: was saying there, but people are taking you are saying 802 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:25,800 Speaker 2: it to mean that Tyler was saying Kirk was filled 803 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:26,160 Speaker 2: with hate. 804 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:28,880 Speaker 7: Does he say did he say anything?

Obviously, 1160 01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:02,080 Speaker 5: JD was very close friends with with Charlie. Charlie helped 1161 01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:05,120 Speaker 5: get JD onto the ticket by lobbying behind the scenes 1162 01:05:05,160 --> 01:05:09,520 Speaker 5: with what Don Junior uh And so this is something 1163 01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:13,160 Speaker 5: that this administration, I mean again at the White House yesterday, 1164 01:05:13,280 --> 01:05:18,280 Speaker 5: those young Trump staffers, that the level of doom that 1165 01:05:18,480 --> 01:05:20,640 Speaker 5: was ever present hanging in the air the entire day 1166 01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:24,360 Speaker 5: and shock it just you know, it's it's one way 1167 01:05:25,240 --> 01:05:27,000 Speaker 5: I think, you know, we're talking now about how people 1168 01:05:27,040 --> 01:05:31,240 Speaker 5: in the public are experiencing this, and that's right, because 1169 01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:34,760 Speaker 5: it's crazy. But just also think about how closely this 1170 01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:38,640 Speaker 5: is touching the way that we talked about this earlier, 1171 01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:43,920 Speaker 5: the reactions from this administration.
