In the aftermath of the 2024 election, America is even more divided than before. Half the country fears the end of democracy, and the other half welcomes it. As America inches [music] toward the brink of authoritarian rule, now more than ever, we must force ourselves to have the necessary conversation. Welcome to the necessary conversation. I'm Chad Coulson. With me is my sister Haley Pop.
Thanks. And my mom Mary Lou Culture. My sister and I of course are horrible, dirty, lefty communists. And my mom is still MAGA for a short time only. Hello.
No, I'm MAGA. Okay. Well, you say I'm MAGA. I'm a strong Republican is what I am. You No, you've said you're MAGA. We there are many clips of that.
You are okay. Maybe after today's show you won't be. Do you have any diddies before we get into the big political topics of the week?
Um I just want to say thank you for all everybody responded in regards to Jules's death. And I got a lot of DMs, a lot of messages. Thank you. Thank you. People were asking for addresses to send stuff, but that's a no. I think this is it was so bizarre. On the day that she was buried, there was a man inside of our house that had to do some work for us on a window.
There was a picture of Jules up with Shiny riding shiny. He goes, "Oh, that's a cool horse. That's a cool picture." I said, "Thanks." I didn't say much. And then he goes, "Do you ride?" I said, "Yes." I said, "Do you?" He said, 'I started riding in Compton, California when I was a youth.
He said, "If, you know, if I wouldn't have started riding when my dad took me there, uh, I would have got in a lot of trouble, I probably would have been incarcerated and went to prison."
I said, "Wow." I said, "I have seen that on TV. It's a documentary. It's about um I don't I always want to say straight analog Compton." It's not that. It's um California and they have a youth writing program and then they have the adult cowboy program and if anybody wanted to do anything for Jules I mean it just hit me like oh my god I am going to donate in her name to that organization and you can just Google it.
It's compton equestrian.org. It's online and it helps children stay out of trouble. They also educate them. Um, and then this man told me when he was um later in his like mid- teens and stuff, they would just hop on horses bearback and they ride through Los Angeles. And he said you can see it today, too. There's also a second part of the organization called the Cowboys where they do compete. So, if anybody wants to do anything, that's where I'm going to put some of my money for Joels in a donation.
All right. Very nice. Yeah. I'm still incredibly sorry about that. Um it's it's just like so shocking and insane. Oh, it hasn't registered yet with me yet.
Yeah. Yeah. Well, um before we get into the show, I wanted to issue a kind of correction, reflection, I suppose, on last week's show. Last week we talked about the hearing with Anthony Fouchy and I mentioned that he pled the fifth over 140 times and you felt that that meant he was guilty in some way and you thought that this was a huge indicator of what a terrible person he was and that he was lying or covering something up. Right.
Right. How many times do you think Donald Trump pled the fifth in his fraud hearings in 2022 where he was found guilty of 41 felonies? I'm sure you're going to tell me 2,000 times.
400 times. Okay. So, if you think that Fouchy pleading the fifth in his hearing is evidence that he was doing something wrong and trying to cover it up, what do you think of Trump pleading the fifth 400 times in a trial that he was found guilty uh of multiple felonies?
I don't think anybody should do that unless I guess their attorney has told them to do that. You need to tell the truth,
right? But I'm saying that the problem you had with Fouchy, Trump did it way more and still was found guilty. I knew where you were going with that.
Okay. But what is your reaction to that information? Both of them should not have done that. Okay. So, another X. Oh, that's like a quarter of an X. [laughter]
Okay, I'll take an X. Uh before we get into our main topics, I do have a question today from a listener. If you'd like to send us in a question, all you have to do is record it in a one minute or shorter video format. Send it to the necessary conversation [email protected]. Here is our question from today.
Hi Colton family. My name is Kelly. I'm from New Hampshire and u my question is about how you all ended up reconnecting. I know you had a period of time where you weren't talking and I heard a little bit about why that occurred, but I was curious to know um what sparked you all to reconnect. Um if it was the podcast or if there was another story behind that. Um I also just want to tell you all how much I love you. Um Haley, I think you're hilarious when you chime in with like little um light-hearted jokes like Crunchup Supremist when your when
your dad was yelling that he was a white supremist. Um I just think it's like a really funny contrast and I enjoy those moments [clears throat] so much. Um, Chad, I think your weirdness is the coolest part about you and Mary Lou, I really love um, you know, how how kind-hearted you are and how much you love animals and I was really saddened and um, sorry to hear about your friend.
So, I hope you're finding comfort. Um, I know this is probably a tough time for you, but um, you're really loved and admired at least by me. So, appreciate you all. Thanks so much.
First of all, I am not weird at all. Oh, okay. Okay. The question was I I I thought that those little comments would be nice for each of you to hear some praise. Mom, you're getting some support. But the question was, how did we reconnect and start this podcast? If you want to hear the first episode, you can do that. It's audio. The first I don't know how many episodes, maybe like 90 or something are all audio only.
Then we started doing video, then we upgraded the video at a certain point. But you can go back and listen to all those. They're all still up. The first episode is just me and you, Mom, talking about your childhood, how you grew up, and and what your um kind of political leanings were throughout your life. But that is the episode that kind of kicked this off. And the idea, it really came when um we about two years out, I believe, from the 2024 election, right? We started this in 2022, I think, halfway through Biden's term.
Um, you know, I I just felt like we weren't talking. I knew you and dad were getting older. We all know what that means. Now we're experiencing a little bit of that with dad and all of his medical stuff. And I just didn't want to like go out like that with our family not talking to each other. And I had been doing a lot of podcasts at the time. I really like it as an art form.
And I had in my head a version of a podcast that I could do with you guys, with our family. And uh yeah, so we just did one and then we did two and then we did three and we just kept going. And that's really how it started.
Yes. And I got the call. I was standing in the kitchen from Chad. What do you And Chad, what do you think? You think we can do this? You think we can talk once a week on politics? I just go, well, if you give me topics ahead of time, yes, maybe. And in the back of my brain, I was thinking, yeah, I can do this for a couple weeks. Not a problem.
[laughter] I said, "Sure." I made a commitment. I can do it for a couple weeks, I think. Yeah, might be okay. Yeah, but it was not that lighthearted. Let's be honest. Like, there was animosity and there was like I remember several phone calls from me to you to break ice as like, hey, we can't not talk. I don't even know what's going on with you guys at this point. It was not like a light-hearted, let's see if we can podcast. Like,
well, in the beginning it was. It was like, sure, I'll give it a try. But then once we got into podcasting and it got heated,
there were days I was like ready to not come back. Okay. Well, I I remember the beginning of it quite differently. I think um I I distinctly remember reaching out to you because historically that's what I've had to do. if there's like a time where we're not talking or you're mad at us for some reason, like I have to break the [ __ ] ice. And that is what transpired.
And then Chad was like, "Oh, I got this podcast [ __ ] Should we do it?" It wasn't like a It was not like that. It was not like a sugarcoated let's do a podcast, guys.
Well, to me it was. It was like I'll give it a try and I'm loyal and once I committed then it and I committed it was a yes. Okay. Okay.
Well, I mean, look, everybody feel free to weigh in on this. Go listen to those episodes. See what you think. I mean, I don't I don't have like a 100% clear memory of of all of this. I do remember.
Yeah. I don't think the beginning of the podcasting was bad, but it started when we got heated. I mean, it was like I've told people, I felt like I ran a race or something. My heart would be beating when we get done. I'd have to go see Shiny. There were some things that we said to each other on there I didn't like and it was hard.
Yeah. But that's why I put the title on this thing the necessary conversation. It didn't say the easy conversation or the fun conversation.
It's that this conversation needs to happen. Not just in our family like in the whole [ __ ] country. There is a rift
in in the country. And I really saw that in our family that it was just like we were the microcosm for the same thing happening. whether it's somebody in your family or not or or just like the the notion that like anybody on the other side of the line does not even deserve to be acknowledged that is a problem. Um and I think it's like at the root kind of core of of the division in this country. So at any rate I hope that answered your question. Thank you so much for sending it in. And again if anybody else out there has a question
email a one minute or shorter video clip at the necessary conversation potgmail.com. Now we begin. Our first topic is Toddy Blanche. Early Saturday, the Senate confirmed Toddy Blanche by a 50-49 vote as the new permanent attorney general. Blanchie was, of course, Trump's personal criminal defense lawyer. So, the conflict of interest is obvious. Back in April, when Trump fired Pam Bondi as attorney general, he claimed that Toddy Blanche was only an interim replacement for the job. But this was uh one more lie from Trump.
There was some question as to whether he could get enough Republican votes to secure the confirmation, but the deciding vote came from Louisiana Republican Bill Cassidy after Totty Blanche was pushed I can't I can't keep saying it. It's like a tongue twister. After Toddy Blanche was pushed
to uh end the controversial 1.8 8 billion anti-weaponization fund in writing, but ending the fund is meaningless in the face of some larger actions Totty Blanche has already taken as attorney general, including withholding over three million document documents uh from release in the Epstein transparency act, seemingly purposeful doxing of Epste victims, including their names, addresses, and in some cases nude photos and negotiating the second half of the anti-weaponization fund policy that made Trump and his family immune from paying taxes or being audited. Mom, Trump told you that Toddy Blanchie was just an interim attorney general.
Do you feel like he lied to you? Okay. His name is not Toddy Blanchie for starters. Um, I do remember Is that how you say it? Blanchie.
No, Blanchie. I thought it was just Blanch. Blanch. It's Turd Blanch. It's Todd Blanch. Todd Blanch. Blanch Blanche. You guys are terrible. We're terrible. You c You and dad throughout this entire podcast have called every Democrat some kind of name. Horseface, Sleepy Joe, blah blah blah blah blah. Now I'm just mispronouncing a guy's name in a way that I find funny because it's gibberish.
On purpose. Ter blanche. Yeah, on purpose. That's right. That's how talking works. Did you did you hear the audio and see that he wants to um on a federal level ban abortion?
No, I didn't see that one. But yeah, leaked audio. Okay. Banning [ __ ] abortion. What happened to leaving it to the states? Turd Blanche.
Okay. I do remember when he first was instated or whatever it's called and Trump and I told you guys he'll just be there a short time till they find the real person.
Okay. So, yeah, that was a lie because I did believe that. I believed it. Of course, that's what he said. Okay. So, one more.
I hope I hope he will enforce the law correctly. Now, we know he has already files. We know he has withholding Epstein files. Go to [ __ ] directly to prison. Do not collect. Go to prison.
Turn to jail. What I'm trying to say is I know he has not done right with the Epstein files. I'm hoping going forward he will enforce the law correctly and not he's likeing lawyer.
He Yeah, he's his personal criminal defense attorney. Lawyer. I guess I still have faith that he might do the right thing. You don't.
What gives you that faith? What gives you that faith? Our United States government. What? Mom, what? Trump has taken his personal criminal defense attorney and put him at the top of the DOJ.
Right. Specifically so that he can hide his crimes, his involvement in the Epstein files. That's one of the biggest ones. But he has now got I'll I'll pronounce it like Haley is Turd Blanche. He has gotten Turd to make him immune from any kind of tax audit and his entire family also. So he doesn't have to pay any of these back taxes which he owes millions of dollars in. That's erased. He also is protecting him in the [ __ ] Epstein files by withholding half of all of those files.
And if what they released is not the bad part and Trump was already in them more than anybody else, what do you think's in that other half?
Right. I know. I I don't like that part at all. I know that he also like refused to meet with the Epstein survivors. You remember all that?
Yes. And he gave him like, you know, 15 20 minutes of like [ __ ] where he wasn't acknowledging them, looking at them. Like he's a piece of [ __ ] Like I said, I hope he does the right thing going forward. If not,
he's not doing the right thing now. Like, why do you think that is even possible? Like I said, I got hope. I got hope.
Why though? Yeah. What? Why? What is this great hope that failed government that our government can't be this bad? It is. It is. Look at the track record. Look at what this guy has already done. He tried to defend Trump in his criminal trials, right? So, he's already trying to get Trump off of crimes that he was found guilty for.
But he is no longer his attorney. Yes, he [ __ ] is. That's what you're not getting. Just because his title changed doesn't mean his loyalties did. He will do anything Trump says. And right now, Trump is saying, "Get rid of my tax audits and make it so I never have to pay taxes again. Every other American, pay taxes forever. If they get audited, [ __ ] them. Throw them in jail.
Not me. Not my family. Make that happen, Ty Blanchie." So he does all all of these all of the government officials are supposed to work for us. They're supposed to work for the people to adhere to the constitution and like all the laws that have governed us for years and years. All of the people that Donald Trump has lined up adhere to none of that. They just follow him blindly because they're all getting paid to do it.
And they're all now criminally implicated. when this regime changes, he's going to grant pardons to everybody obviously on his way out the door that will be like preemptive pardons like Joe Biden did for his kids and stuff.
So, they'll all be immune to some degree from all of this, I feel like. Um, and when that happens, will that change your mind at all when he grants full pardons to everybody in his cabinet for all criminal wrongdoing?
Yes, that would change my mind. Okay. That will happen 100%. Because they all have committed massive crimes and they're aware of that and they're covering it up. That's what Ty Blanch is doing.
Okay. And you don't think he's going to disagree with Trump on anything? [ __ ] no. Has he? So far? He's his lawyer.
I think he will. If it gets bad, I think if something gets bad, he will. No, cuz they're in too deep. They are all involved in a giant criminal conspiracy the likes of which this country has never seen at the top level of United States government. They all know that. So if they give an inch, if they have a change of heart, oh [ __ ] we're doing something bad. I should come clean. Too late, [ __ ] If you do that, you're going to jail for life. His only option now is to do whatever Trump says forever and hope that Trump will
give him that pardon when they all leave office. That's his only option. Well, look what happened with the um the pool and Janine um what's her last name? Trump and Janine got into it. A little spat there over the over the reflecting pool.
Right. But the reflecting pool The reflecting pool. Yes. But that is not the Epstein files. The reflecting pool is Trump is lying about how somebody took a box cutter to the bottom of the lining or whatever and he spent money. Whatever. That's just like lies and ineptitude. The Epstein Files is Trump is raping children.
Well, it's bigger. I know the Epstein files is huge compared to the reflecting pool, but what I'm saying is he disagreed with her and nothing's happened there.
Correct. But like I'm saying, that's not a criminal conspiracy. The Epstein files are. And Ty Blanche has hidden them. He has doxed the victims. He has committed crimes himself. He's doing it now as the head of the DOJ by not releasing those files. That is a law that Trump signed. All Epstein files must be released. I know
he's not doing it. He's committing crimes. Let's see going forward what's going to happen here. But like I said, I don't you're you're saying see going forward. It's happening now. You're seeing it happen. There is no future to be like, well, let's see what they're going to do. They're doing it now.
Blanch, how many times do you have let's see what happens. I think I've heard that at least 173 times on this show. So like how many times do you just like let's see what happens and then you see what happens. So like now what? Now what? Like he didn't end the war in in Iran. Um they did not release the Epstein files. Uh Pete Hespath is still still has his position. Like all these things you're like we'll just see. You have already seen. So like now what? So now what?
Bondie lose. That has nothing to do with this because she wouldn't do what he wanted. She had a bad uh Senate hearing where she was like, "Fuck you. I'm not saying anything." And he was like, "I can't have this. I need somebody who can cover this [ __ ] up slickly and not drawing attention. That's why he fired her." All right. Well, let's move on to something that has happened.
Okay. Yes. So, this is not a wait and see what happens. This has happened this week. A new court filing revealed that Trump has given about $100 billion dollar in tariff refunds to giant corporations. Apple is getting 2.2 billion, Ford 1.3 billion, Amazon 600 million. Other large recipients include Walmart, GM, and UPS. The tariffs, however, did not hurt these businesses at all because their increased costs were passed on to shoppers through higher prices. You with us, Mom?
I'm looking at a note. Go ahead. I hear you. Okay. Um, businesses, not shoppers, are getting this money and most companies are not lowering prices now that they're getting money back. Bunch of these CEOs of these companies, all of whom have bonuses based on the financial performance of their companies, were major Trump supporters and campaign contributors. Mom, back in 2025, Trump promised that every US citizen was going to get a $2,000 check paid for by his tariffs. Have you gotten your $2,000 check yet?
You know what? I have not, but I keep getting text messages about it. Yeah, those are lies. I know those are lies. I I get text messages about it.
So, why do you think it's okay that these billionaires and giant corporations are getting huge payouts before you see that $2,000 check he promised you?
This is what I was looking at my notes. Trump didn't decide this. the Supreme Court did because they ruled that those tariffs were unlawful, which we know that
and who had to be paid. They had to give the money back. They had to give the money back to the importers that paid the customs and that's what they're doing.
So, we as consumers got screwed over. You are right. We all we got we got screwed. It's not just that we got screwed over. It's that this is the plan. The plan is to take as much tax money from the general American public as they can and give it to the richest people in the world. There I just watched a thing this morning about um the current economy is what they call K-shaped, meaning the the lines in our economy, one is going up, one is going down. Rich people are getting richer, poor people are getting poorer. How does that happen? Through taxes. Whatever form that may take. If
it's a like straight actual tax on your paycheck or if it's through tariffs, that means the rich people are taking money from the poor people. That is Trump's entire methodology. And it is working. We're seeing it in real time. Nobody's getting that $2,000 check. And even if we do get the $2,000 check, it's meaningless in the scope of how much money he is giving to all of these [ __ ] billionaire CEOs who were sitting there on his inauguration, who are all [ __ ] up his ass, sucking his dick every day. Oh my god. Okay. But like I said prior, um the Supreme Court
ruled this way. So that's why that had installed three people on that Supreme Court. They're part of this. I don't [screaming] LIKE I just like you. You surely see this. You surely understand what's going on, right?
You surely can't make an Supreme Court. He put them there. He's stacked the [ __ ] Supreme Court in his favor. And do you surely see in New York the billionaires now that own big um big houses and big things are having to pay an ungodly tax?
You mean a tax that they should be paying? Yes, that is okay. Tax them all. Tax the [ __ ] out of every [ __ ] billionaire. Yes.
That's why they're leaving New York. In mom, they're not leaving. And mom Donn is creating Disneyland. He's going to like put 30% more trees in New York City. He's already cleaning up the trash. free healthcare. I want to [ __ ] live in Mom Donny's Disneyland.
Go. Not me. Right. Because low crime rates is bad, right? Their crime rate is down by like 70%. Like New York City is getting cleaned the [ __ ] up. Is that why I see all the videos of all the Islamic people in the street saying f you f you to the USA and kill Americans and
no the reason you see those videos mom is because you watch Newsmax and you have an algorithm that promotes those ideas to you because it knows you like them. It confirms your fears about Islamic people are taking over our country and I'm and Right. So that's wrong. And so far, the one Islamic guy who's in office, Zoran Mum Donnie, doing a pretty good [ __ ] job.
Mhm. Yeah. I don't see it like that. I don't mind the takeover. Seems pretty good. [laughter] Where where's my mini mom Donnie? Huh? I want my mini mom Donnie.
But like you're you're also deflecting all of these things like, well, what about in New York and the billionaires? You're like the main issue is this. Donald Trump is using the United States government to steal money from the average citizen and give it to himself and his other billionaire friends. You can see that happening, right?
Hello. No, you don't see that. He just told you. What? How much did they give Amazon? Like $600 million. Apple got 2.2 billion. Ford gets 1.3 billion. Amazon gets 600 million. Supreme Court explained that they rolled all of those costs onto consumers. So we [ __ ]
the Supreme Court did that. But Trump created that Supreme Court. That same Supreme Court also said a president can't be tried for crimes, can't be found guilty of crimes because he put three people on that Supreme Court that are his loyalists.
Also, he implemented all these [ __ ] [ __ ] tariffs for what? to get our money. This whole thing was designed to do that. And he told you these tariffs are going to make things cheaper for you. It's going to give you money. That's a lie. Clearly,
tariffs have always worked. Other presidents have used them in the past, too. Okay, let's move on. This is insane. Um, what? Oh, we're at 26 minutes already. Let's go to this one. Now, you don't do you think that Trump is uh performing financial fraud at all? No.
Yes. So, he was found he was found he was found guilty of 41 cases of it. First of all, so let's go three or four weeks ago. You said so.
On fraud. What are we talking about? I just wanted to set the table for our next topic, which is Capital One. This week, court filings revealed that Capital One closed hundreds of Trump affiliated bank accounts in 2021 for suspicion of money laundering. The bank's filing said, quote, "The closures were the result of months of analysis and careful review by Capital 1's anti-moneylaundering team in accordance with bank policies and regulatory guidance. They closed roughly 385 accounts tied to the Trump Organization, Eric Trump, and a collection of affiliated businesses." Mom, why do you think Capital One shut down 385 Trump bank accounts?
That happened back in 2021, right? Yes. It said there was risk. It also says that he was he did not okay. Capital One did not accuse Trump actually of committing money laundering. The bank said the accounts were closed because of the high risk and the view that they saw.
Yeah. This does not establish that he was money laundering. Right. That has that's a criminal charge that would not come from a bank.
Right. That would have to come in this case from Ty Blanchie. Oh gosh. Which is never going to happen obviously. But you're you're misunderstanding the volume of this.
They didn't see like one or two of his accounts had like some weird activity. So we're going to close him down. 385 bank accounts,
right? But he's not accused. Not it. I just read it. He's not accused of money laundering. Great. So then why did they shut those bank accounts down? because they were at risk. Those accounts were at risk, it said.
Have you ever had a bank account shut for being at risk of moneyaundering? Not money laundering, but someone tried to take money out of an account before and they shut it down,
right? They were protecting you from somebody doing fraud on your account. Yes. So in this case, Capital One, a giant [ __ ] banking corporation,
looked at 385 bank accounts that Donald Trump is associated with and said, "These are all looking real bad. We got to shut them down because we don't want federal criminal charges to be levied against our bank. That's why they do this." When when you're talking about risk, the risk isn't like to Trump. The risk is to the bank. It's the bank saying, "We don't want the liability of potentially being involved in a giant criminal conspiracy of moneyaundering." Trump has been alleged and and all around the world of moneyaundering for a long time because of his Russian ties, getting all these loans from Deutschbank and doing these
crazy big real estate deals where he's selling [ __ ] for way more money than it's worth to Russians. He's I mean, in my opinion, he's clearly money laundering.
I'm sorry. 385 bank accounts. Yes. Um, just the scope of the [ __ ] number involved is kind of like red flag. But his accounts weren't the only other ones. There were other ones closed down, too. So, you're acting like
people who are laundering money. They acted like zeroing in on him only. There were other accounts it said that they had closed, too.
But, Mom, yes, they closed those accounts also because they were laundering money. He's a crook. He's always been a crook. He's always been a [ __ ] vile piece of [ __ ] from day one. That's why we were all just shocked when he was voted in president the first time around. Like, you can't be [ __ ] kidding me. He's a crook.
Mom, how are you defending the closure of these bank accounts? I don't get this because I read it and it said that his accounts were not the only ones closed.
That means there are other criminals. It said Capital One itself was fined 390 million by Finn CEN in January 2021 for serious anti-money laundering compliance failures including other accounts checking accounts businesses from 2008 to 2014 that case.
Do you know what that means? I don't think you understand what that means. Tell me. It means there were it wasn't just Trump that other people were also doing things that involve moneyaundering which is a crime,
right? So yes, there were other accounts. You're correct. Those people are also criminals. A criminal conspiracy means multiple criminals are conspiring together for one common goal.
The way I read it, it was those accounts were at risk also. Correct. Yet, right? There have been no criminal charges filed. There has been no criminal investigation. There now cannot be in the case of Trump because of what his Supreme Court has ruled.
Oh boy. [laughter] All right, let's simmer down. I want to revisit a piece of lore from our family history. Hear it potentially from three different perspectives. That piece of lords, of course, the can of corn. Do you remember this day?
Whoa. Yes. You got some [ __ ] wolves in the background there, I don't know. Somebody probably just delivered [ __ ] to the door. I vaguely remember this. How old was I? Five.
Kindergarten, first grade. I have a a vague recollection of this. I'll I'll begin because I was the one most involved. Um [laughter] when I was roughly 9 or 10, my job
was No, cuz I want to hear your perspectives as well. My job at that age was uh trash delivery, trash refuse. Trash man.
Yeah, I was a trash [laughter] man. I was the culture family trash man. So, I had taken some trash and in order to place the trash in the dumpster on this house that we lived in, you had to walk out the front door, go all the way around the side of the house into the alley and walk down a couple of houses in the alley to where one of the dumpsters were, toss it in, and then walk all the way back. So, I was in the middle of doing that, wearing shorts. It was a hot summer day, I remember, and flip-flops. And I was just kind of
swinging the trash bag back and forth. And at one point I feel like a it bumps against my knee and I feel a slight scratch on my knee and I think nothing of it and I just keep walking and doing my thing. By the time I get to the dumpster I'm like my leg is really warm. I know it's hot out but it also feels wet. What's going on? And I look down.
Something in the bag which I believe was an open like can lid of a can of corn had [ __ ] sliced my knee to the bone like a scalpel. And I was just pouring [ __ ] waterfalls of blood. The flip-flop is full of blood. Just blood everywhere. Now, uh my first inclination when this happens is to minimize the possible um damage. So, I go back inside and I just get a wash rag, put water in it, and just pack it on there and I go and I sit on the couch and start watching TV. That's how I'm going to handle this. [laughter]
And then from my memory, mom, you find the blood trail, like footprints that I've left through the [ __ ] house, and you're like, "What [laughter] the hell's going on?" [gasps] And immediately we have to go to the emergency room where I get stitches. Um, what is your experience of this mom?
You were trying to hide it from me. You went in a couple rooms hiding it from me as I found the trail of blood. and I came to you and looked at it and was, "Holy crap." Uh, picked up the phone, got your dad home. Um, it was a can of corn that was o like the can on the lid on the can was not all the way taken off. So, that's my fault and that's what sliced you. And so, your dad comes home and I said, "Let's go." So, we went to a little clinic and the man said, "Hop up on the table." And he goes, "Oh, have
you ever experienced stitches?" And you said, "No, sir." And he said, "You will experience stitches today." Yeah. He I don't know what kind of accent it was, but it wasn't like what we speak. [laughter] So,
well, he clearly spoke English. He just had an accent. Yeah. He said, "You will experience stitches today." And then uh he started numbing you up with shots and we had to make you look away or you would pass out. I think how many stitches you get? Like six, seven?
I don't know. I don't remember. It was bad. Haley, you were a young child. Um you have no memory of this. I have what mom has told me which was that um correct me if I'm wrong but you told me I was like super intrigued by this. So like during the phase of stitches at like the ER I got my nose so close to the
That is correct the betadine that it was on my face. Yes, she did. She did. She got so close washing it that stuff got on her face. I don't know if it's blood or the bedadine. Yes.
Yes. And I still have a scar on my knee to this day. Let's move on to our next topic. Operation Southern Spear. This week, new information came out about who Trump has killed in service of Operation Southern Spear. Starting back in September and targeting what Trump called narot terrorists. Trump has killed approximately 2 220 people across more than 60 strikes on vessels suspected of drug trafficking in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific. The very first strike on September 2nd, 2025 killed 11 people aboard, an anomaly that raised suspicions since one government source asked why would 11 people be on a drug boat. And a top Pentagon official
later admitted that the strike may have killed human trafficking victims in Venezuelan coastal villages. Relatives of those killed in these strikes said the dead were mostly laborers, a fisherman, a motorcycle taxi driver, men crewing boats for the first or second time for about $500 a trip. The administration has not released public evidence justifying the strikes and CBP data shows little effect on drug flows. Trump has said, quote, "Drugs entering our country by sea are down 97%."
But this is another lie. Experts have found that the price for cocaine has actually dropped slightly since the beginning of the operation, indicating that the supply has actually increased. Uh in South Florida, DEA agents were reportedly seeing quote the lowest drug prices in over a decade for a kilo of cocaine and fentanyl, the drug Trump is trying to combat, enters mostly by land to the United States. So these strikes have no effect on that supply at all. So far, the operation has cost American taxpayers $4.7 billion and produced no meaningful results.
Mom, do you think all of the 220 people Trump killed in Operation Southern Spear were drug dealers? I have no idea. Um, I haven't heard anything more about this till you just brought it up today on the podcast. I know there were strikes early on and I did see some of that video and all of that that was on TV and different stations, but I've heard nothing more about it till you brought it up right now.
Okay. Now, you've heard this what I've said to you. What do you think about it? I was going to say I don't know what to comment because I haven't really seen much more about it. You're saying you have no reaction to the information I just gave you that multiple of these people had nothing to do with drugs and that the attacks that they're doing on these people, these murders don't affect the drugs coming into the United States at all.
Yeah. They should be grabbing the people that do affect us and that do bring the drugs into the United States. Right. And they're not. They have wasted uh $4.7 billion dollars killing 220 people and it's had no effect on drugs at all.
Yeah. Not good. So that's an X. X. You'd say that would be an X. How many more X's we need? That was my first X for today. And
how many till we tic-tac-toe? How many till we say no more Trump? I don't know yet. Okay. Well, I guess we ain't getting much more out of that. Um, well, let me ask you this. Why do you think we have more drugs in the country now than when Trump started doing this?
Come in different ways, I guess. Okay. Maybe they were here all along. I don't know. All right. Good talking to you. Let's move on to our next topic. Abdul Elsed. This week, Abdul Elsed won his primary, securing the Democratic nomination for US Senate in Michigan. Say is a progressive public health advocate and epidemiologist and former Detroit Wayne County health official who previously lost the 2018 governor's primary to Gretchen Whitmer. He'll now face Republican Mike Rogers, a former congressman who ran unopposed in November. He narrowly beat Rep. Haley Stevens, the establishmentbacked centrist, by roughly one point after uh counting ran through the night. It was
described as the most expensive Senate primary in American history with El Say overcoming a nearly $65 million onslaught of outside money. A large share came from pro-Israel groups and says win represents an enormous blow to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, Apac, uh, which backed his opponent with more than $30 million. Els is a progressive in the Bernie Sanders mold. He stated his priorities are to get money out of politics, put money into your pocket, and pass Medicare for all. He also campaigns on clean air and water and affordable housing, framing himself against Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and other billionaire fiends. And perhaps the biggest part of his platform
is guaranteed health care for everyone. Mom, you want universal healthcare? So does he. Do you support Abdul Elsed? No, because I don't believe everything that he is saying.
Oh, okay. Okay. Um, but Donald Trump has lied to you and you've admitted it and you're like, "Nope, still my president." But this guy,
he is I just don't What could it be? What could I don't believe the thing he is saying things he's saying. He's He is a progressive Democrat. He's way left. Mhm.
Uh socialistic. He's social. Yeah. He might even be communist. I don't know. But I like healthc care for everyone. I do like that.
Uhhuh. But I don't there's no way in heck that he's going to be uh the Republican, that Mike Rogers guy. There's no way. So y'all don't get too excited.
Uh you're wrong. Okay, we'll see. Yeah, there's going to be a huge there's going to be a huge shift. I think you're going to see if we get free and fair elections.
Yeah. Okay. That that was going to be my next question. But before we get to that, I just want to settle on this for a second. Mom, you're saying you don't believe anything he says. Why?
I just I don't know. He just popped out of nowhere and he's promising a lot of things that Well, he didn't pop out of nowhere. He's he's been running and and doing things in politics for a minute.
Okay. But you're you don't believe him when he says, "I want to give healthcare to everybody." But you believe Trump when he says, "I'm going to give everybody $2,000 off tariffs." And even now that that hasn't happened, you still kind of don't care about that.
Why don't you like mom dummy? I think he's kind of just like this guy. There's preaching. They're preaching and they're saying things just so people say, "Oh, okay." And then we're never gonna see any of it anyway.
Okay. Well, Mom Donnie is following through. So, he's doing it. He's doing everything that he said he was going to do. We've seen the free grocery stores. Have we seen that? I don't think we have.
He's setting up neighborhood grocery stores, but yes, they're implementing free child care to be ready in what, three years, four years? I'm sorry. Do we need to get into all the promises that Donald Trump has made that have fallen through? Where's your $2,500?
I'm sorry. Why aren't we out of Iran? How about Mexico paying for the wall? Remember that one? Yes. Trump has followed through on nothing.
Nothing except the secret promises. No one has no one's coming across that border anymore. That's not true. He certainly has reduced the amount of people, but it's not completely secure.
The things that he has really uh made good on are ending abortion, getting more money for his billionaire friends. You with us, Mom?
Yeah, I'm right here looking at you, Chad. [laughter] You know they're bulldozing um Big Ben National Park right now in Texas. Did you know they're bulldozing certain areas of that national park right [ __ ] now to build part of this [ __ ] wall? And there's videos of animals just like scurrying. They're literally [ __ ] killing wildlife left and right.
I haven't seen that. Destroying national parks. The border remains more secure than any point in our history. Are you reading this on White House official? Daily apprehensions are down 94%. From the previous administration that let millions flow in and over.
Okay. You you keep going back to that. That's the one good thing he's done. Everything else terrible. You admit that. And yet somehow just the closure of the border is like enough for you to still support.
Do you believe in a total abortion ban? Do you believe in that? I I don't believe in abortions unless it's to save the life of the baby or the mother.
So, do you believe in a total abortion? To be saving the life of the baby. I don't think any abortion does that. Well, if it saves the life of the mom or the child,
an abortion's never going to save the life of the child. I understand what you're saying. When I you really don't believe in a woman's right to choose. Like in your first trimester, you're accidentally pregnant. You know, you can't take care of a [ __ ] baby. You literally have a problem with a woman getting an abortion.
Yes. Because the baby could be given up for adoption like your father was and live a life and someone else can raise the baby that the woman that was pregnant with did not want.
Right. But the repercussions of all of those in killing a baby that has been in a in the woman and is fertilized at any time
at any time. So literally conception unless to save the life of the mom. Okay. That baby can be birthed and given to someone else. So you don't So you don't believe in
to the Catholic social services the way your father was. If if you believe that and then we all pay for your mother's mother was pregnant, you would not be here.
Yeah. So So then, okay, couple of things. So one, you don't believe in a total abortion ban. And two, you're basically saying you believe in some kind of socialist program for uh orphaned children,
for funding all of these children that aren't wanted. I believe who's going to pay for that? I believe every child should live. So where does that
pay for that? Got to find money somewhere, right? But Trump has taken money away from those programs. Yeah. I don't know. Also, bodily autonomy is like quite important. Would you like somebody telling you what to do with your body in any capacity?
Would you like that? Would you like someone determining your future with I I believe in life. I don't believe in abortions. I don't believe that an abortion should be allowed for birth control, which some people do do that. You were
your father's mother was 14. Why are you yelling at me? Did not raise because you're trying to get me to go the other way and I'm not. There's no way a 14-year-old child can have a baby and raise a baby.
A child should not be forced to have a child. You're right. And that's why we have abortion. They can have the baby but then give it up for it to be raised for someone who maybe cannot have a child.
So you've gone through labor and delivery twice. You know what that includes? You think a 14-year-old should have to go through that? You think a 14-year-old should have to go through labor and delivery to deliver a [ __ ] baby that they will never see, never take care of, and be put up for adoption.
Who is that? You could just have a [ __ ] abortion and none of that happens. I don't believe in abortions, Haley. I'm sorry. I just don't.
Children should not have children. That's cruel. Mom, let me um ask you a question based on your kind of religious ideology. You are Catholic, Christian. Yes.
Yes. Why do you think God would have given us the power of abortion if we're not to use it? I believe in God.
Right. So, why do we have that? I believe God believes in life too. Then why would God make an abortion? Why would he invent that and give us that tool?
I do not have the answer to that, Chad. All the bad things you always say, why would God let you do that? Why does God do that?
Right? I'm just saying for people who believe in a a kind of Christian God which is um omnipotent, all powerful, etc., etc., knows everything, creates everything, never makes a mistake. It's all part of God's plan. Why would abortion be part of God's plan if we are not to use it?
I do not have the answer to that. Why did God take my jewels from me? I don't have the answer to that. Yeah,
there are a lot of things that you don't have the answer to that God does. All right. Well, for me, it's because God's not real.
Well, I believe in God. All right. Um, let's move on. I have a few more topics here that are kind of quick rapid fire. Uh, this one is jobs vaporized. This week, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported a loss of 23,000 jobs in July 2026. A sharp contrast to the 83,000 new jobs that were projected by Trump's economists. It was the worst single month of job loss since July 2020, four months after the pandemic lockdown began. Mom, do you think Trump is making the economy better?
Um jobs always go up and down. No, our economy our economy is not good. We all know this right now. Kids are coming out of college and not finding opportunities like left and right.
But jobs always do go up and down regard you know with wars with change of seasons with whatever they always go up and down with unemployment. I mean employment during seasonal jobs stuff like that. So uh but right now the economy sucks. We all know,
right? Jobs go up and down. That's not what we were promised by Trump, right? Trump said, "I'm going to come in winning, winning, winning. My tariffs are going to make everybody rich." And now people can't get [ __ ] jobs. Worst jobs report since July 2020.
I know. And the war when the pandemic wrecked the whole world. Like, that made sense. Everybody's locked down. What? The war is not helping things either. We know this.
Agreed. Let's let's go to that topic. Uh this week, where is it? This week, yesterday actually, the secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council published a list of demands that Trump must meet in order to open the Straight of Hormuz, which has been closed since February, causing catastrophic increases in the price of oil and gasoline worldwide, and a lot of other things. The list of demands are end the war permanently, full stop to war and aggression against Iran and its allies in Lebanon, Palestine, Yemen, and Iraq, lift the US naval blockade of Iran, withdraw US military forces, naval and air forces from around Iran. Lift all
sanctions on Iran, release frozen Iranian assets, and pay compensation and war reparations for damages caused by this war. Trump and Marco Rubio are very unlikely to meet these demands as it would be a clear sign they have lost the war. Do you think Trump should agree to these demands to get the street of Hormuz open again? Mom,
I want the war over. We know that's not going to happen. The war is going to continue. What they're proposing here, this list of demands includes that ending the war. One of the the first demands on this is end the war permanently.
They're saying end this war and we will open the straight of Hormuz. pay us reparations for the damage you've done. Lift the sanctions on our assets and we're good to go.
We know that's not going to happen. Right. So, the war will continue. Yes. And it's the decision of Trump to do that. Yeah. It's going to continue.
Correct. But you keep saying we need to end this war. This is one of your big issues. Trump's not ending it. All of those things to do. That's crazy. Crazy town.
Why is that crazy? Why is it crazy? Reparations. Come on. He invaded for no reason. For no [ __ ] reason. Maybe if um Obama wouldn't have given him the what, two billion way back when, maybe we wouldn't be in this predicament.
What? [laughter] That was the craziest deflection to Obama I've ever heard on this show. And that's saying something. Obama has nothing to do. Look, you're talking about like how crazy it is for reparations to be repaid. You remember he killed a whole school full of children
in the very beginning of this little girls. Do you think the families of those kids should get any reparations? Yes, we did that. The United States murdered those children.
Yeah, we 100% owes them something. These demands are actually not that crazy. end the war, lift the US naval blockade on the straight, withdraw military forces, lift sanctions on the country, release the frozen Iranian assets, pay compensation for the damages caused. That's not
I've never heard of any war do that. Can you name me another war that would give reparations and give money to another country to say, "Okay, let's get this war done and over."
Uh, yeah. Let's do it. Chad, are you looking at me? Chad, are you looking at me? [laughter] Yes, I am. World War I ended with the Treaty of Versailles, requiring Germany to pay massive financial reparations to reparations to Allied powers. World War II resulted in widespread reparations with defeated nations like Japan signing over 50 bilateral agreements to compensate Asian and Western nations. Gulf War ended with the United States establishing a compensation commission requiring Iraq to pay billions of dollars in reparations for its invasion and occupation of Kuwait. FrancoRussian War ended with the Treaty of Frankfurt which forced France to pay substantial indemnity to the newly formed German
Empire. So on and so forth then okay got me. You got me. I didn't know that. Then [snorts] maybe he should and get this war over. I just didn't think it was done. Generally speaking, the losers of the war are the ones required to pay reparations. And so there is some kind of ideological component to this that if we are to capitulate or if Trump is to say fine, we'll do this. Then it is kind of an acknowledgement that you've lost the war and I don't think he wants to do that obviously. But again, as we've talked about on the show week after
week, there is no clear objective for victory in this war. I don't even know how you would measure a victory at this point.
I don't either. Um, okay. Let's do I have one more um thing that I want to ask you about. ICE is force-feeding prisoners. This week, reporting from the Guardian revealed that ICE is force-feeding prisoners who are engaging in hungry hunger strikes in their concentration camps. Force-feeding involves unauthorized medical procedures requiring the non-consentual insertion of a plastic tube through the nose, down the throat and esophagus, and into the stomach to deliver liquid nutrition against the prisoner's will. At a privatelyun Texas concentration camp, a Kurdish asylum seeker was force-fed for nearly eight months. At the same facility, another hunger striker endured involuntary procedures, including force
feeding for nearly 6 months between September 2025 and March 2026. Hundreds of people have gone on hunger strikes since ICE detention centers across the country. Uh they're in protest of what they describe as overcrowded and unsanitary conditions, spoiled and worminfested food and water, inadequate medical care, delays in immigration procedures, and physical, sexual, and psychological abuse. Mom, are you okay with ICE force-feeding people against their will?
No. But isn't it their right to try to keep these people alive also? or you cannot legally perform medical procedures on someone without their consent. That is what this is.
The point of the hunger strike is to draw attention to the fact that these concentration camps are killing people by withholding medical services, by making them eat maggotinfested [ __ ]
The hunger strike is is done to draw attention to subjects like this. And so by force feeding these people, they're like, "Fuck you. You don't get to do that."
And also, these are the people, I've said it. Get rid of ice. I've said it. None of this is good. But if they're trying to save somebody's life, should you just let the poor people in there die?
No, you should release them. You should not put them in concentration camps. None of them belong there. I know. I know. I said get rid of ICE. I've said it. I don't know how else to say it,
but it's like the the next step that you need to take is is get rid of the prisons because Trump's making money on the prisons and all that.
Well, for sure. It's get rid of Trump. He's the one who has is doing all of this. You think he doesn't give a [ __ ] This story came out this week. Guess who said nothing about it? The White House. They don't care.
They're taking our money and funding this [ __ ] like we are paying for that. When ICE was first started, I thought it was a good thing because they would be taking the criminals. They would be taking the drug dealers. They would be taking the bad people back across the border. That's not what ICE did.
Correct. And it's not what they're doing doing. So, it's bad. They are continuing to operate like this under Trump's regime. He's the one No way I could say this is good. It's bad.
Right. So then Donald Trump is bad. This is an ex against ICE and Donald Trump. He needs to change this. Do you always talk badly about Obama and Biden, all this stuff? You know, ICE existed under them, too. Right.
Right. But they weren't doing what they're doing now. There were cages that Obama put kids in. Yes. He detained children, all of that.
I'm not saying it was good under any of them, but it wasn't like this. They weren't shooting American citizens in the head in the streets of our cities. They weren't force-feeding people uh in their concentration camps. They weren't serving people maggotinfested food. They weren't denying them medical care. It wasn't like this.
No, I just think the world's crazy right now. And the United States, I think it's gotten way you keep saying the world's crazy. the United States, you're you're putting blame everywhere but where it actually lies, which is Donald Trump and his billionaire friends. They are doing all of this on purpose. They are trying to create this system where all the money is at the top. Making everybody below them poor so that we have no choices in life. So that it's whatever they they decide for us is what's happening. These flock cameras are a part of it as well to build a giant surveillance state so
they can watch all of us at all times. And if anybody steps out of line, [ __ ] it. Concentration camp. You're a terrorist.
That has been more on the news here, too. I've seen that. Those Yeah. And they're chasing They're chasing women down who are crossing state lines for abortions to put them in [ __ ] prison.
Yeah, Chad brought that up. What happened to states rights? I don't know. They don't mean anything. They are trying to create a world where this thin layer of billionaires own all the social media news you watch. They own all of the surveillance systems and the AI technology that can look through all of that data to determine like, have you heard about um I forget what it's called, dynamic pricing, I think it's called. Have you heard about this?
So these big companies basically any company that sells you anything at a high level like they use it in Uber for sure. Uh but shopping on Amazon any of this kind of [ __ ]
Ticket master ticket master you and I can go on Amazon and look up the same product. They are using dynamic pricing because they look at how much money will this person pay for that product versus how much money will that person pay. And if all of your data indicates that you will pay a higher price, that's the price you see and you don't know any different. So you [ __ ] click on it. This is used for like food delivery, Ubers, all kinds of [ __ ] That's the world we're living in now. So these companies are trying to get literally as much money as they
possibly can out of every individual. The the the object they're selling or the service they're selling not even relevant. It's how much money can I get out of that person? And that information is sifted through all these big AI companies to do that. That's just kind of tip of the iceberg. Trump is trying to create a world where they get every penny out of every person suck straight to the top. They watch everyone constantly and they control the vote so that none of them can ever be removed from office. So the system will be in place forever. That is the goal.
Remember when we talked about project 2025 and you were like, "That's never going to happen. They're never going to do that. They're doing it." He lied to you.
That's a lot of information you just threw at me. [laughter] Well, [gasps] I guess that's the end of the show. Too much information in this one, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for joining us. I will be back maybe with one of you at 6 PM PDT tonight for a live.
I have to go fulfill 800 shipments. All right, I guess I'll be holding it down solo. Join me right here on our YouTube channel for that before we go. As always, mom, I do love you. We are getting very close to getting you out of this. You just have one weird little thread keeping you attached to Trump. We're going to cut it eventually. Haley, I love you. Congratulations on all of your order fulfillments, all of your successes in life.
Mhm. I love dad, too, in the other room. Sleeping soundly. No, he was yelling some politics earlier. He's getting close. He's about to come back up, but he's getting close.
Oh god, I can't wait. I love you, Chad. I love you, Haley. I love Bob. Love you, Mom. Love you, Chad. Tell dad I love him. Okay, rest in peace, Jules.
