0:00:03 Clip: What's so scary about the woke mob, how often you just don't see them coming.
0:00:11 Clip: Anywhere you see diversity, equity, and inclusion, you see Marxism, and you see woke principles being pushed.
0:00:19 Clip: Wokeness is a virus more dangerous than any pandemic hands down. The woke monster is here, and it's coming for everything, everything, everything, and everything. Instead of go -go boots, the seductress green M&M will now wear sneakers.
0:00:41 Thomas: And welcome to Where There's Woke. This is one of the episodes. I don't know. What now? Do you know? Oh, you know what we need to do? We need to get Arlo in charge of episode numbering. He, this dude, never. This dude, our son Arlo, is still telling us what day of kindergarten it is. I guess the teacher writes it down or something.
0:00:49 Lydia: 67. Ooh, we would never be wrong. But than that, when he's recalling things that happened at school, he tells me what day of kindergarten it happened on. He says on the 37th day of Kindergarten, yada, yida, yadda.
0:01:11 Thomas: And I think he's right. Yeah. Yeah, he'll be like, yeah, it was the 20th day.
0:01:16 Lydia: Incredible.
0:01:17 Thomas: And so he'll know. Yeah. Okay. So anyway, that's out how to fix this. But until then, provisionally, this is number something.
0:01:23 Lydia: 67.
0:01:24 Thomas: Sure. And boy, have we got a treat for you. You so it's part two of this Nazi rally from 2024 not the 1939 one yet we may get to that um in addition to horrifying racist fraudulent, you know, just bigots and con men and con women con people are there any women I don't think there's any women in this part I was one female male speaker but um wife's a bigot so she she decided to cut that yeah so it's all men
0:01:47 Lydia: This section yeah honestly you're welcome Brooke Rollins because I probably like saved some humiliation for you
0:01:55 Thomas: All right she would have heard about it when when where there's woke comes for you yeah um we have I kid you not the funniest thing to ever happen on any of my shows ever that I just I'm not even I'm not even going to tease more than that I'm medical bills from our laughter that we had to pay it's I've I I'm not moving well right now I'm in a full body cast from laughing so cannot wait for you to hear this folks let's get on over to the fucking rest middle third sort of, of, It was a long rally and Lydia watched the whole thing. I don't know what is wrong with
0:01:58 Lydia: Was the feminist choice yeah yeah yeah just about in
0:02:30 Thomas: You, but you know, we'll figure that out on our own time. Uh, so, uh, thanks for listening. And, uh. This break, which you can avoid at patreon dot com slash where there's woke, uh, support the show, support our medical bills, uh, Lydia's therapy bills for watching this whole thing, and um, you can, and, and I'll see you next time. Avoid the stupid ads. Get rid of those ads. They're terrible. And then we'll be on with the middle third this nazi rally uh
0:02:44 Lydia: My therapy bills. Then we get into someone that I don't think like most people have heard of. I'd never heard of him until this. But his name is Grant Cardone. He's an American businessman. Runs this thing called 10X. And I think like he has a bunch of conventions he does where it's like 10X growth and 10X wealth. And I mean, John Travolta spoke at one of these things. Steve Harvey spoke at one of these things. Obviously, Donald Trump did two years ago. But basically, like the cheapest early bird pricing, if anyone's looking to go to 10x growth this year, three days full of it, early bird pricing at the lowest tier starts at nine hundred and seventy five dollars. Highest price one is like 20k. That is crazy. But his his promise to you is like that he will help grow your business 10 times
0:03:25 Thomas: God, so bullshit business motivational thing that does nothing, yeah. Is all bullshit, by we should go then
0:03:44 Lydia: Kind of thing, you know?
0:03:44 Thomas: Because I would love to grow this business 10 times awesome
0:03:46 Lydia: But just so everyone knows a little bit more about him, he recently tweeted about the government controlling Hurricane Milton. So he's yeah, I don't know how serious of a person he is. 5950, we'll hear a little bit about what he thinks about how big cities work. And again, Trump built this skyline, baby.
0:04:05 Thomas: He built the skyline? He did not build the skyline. Checks notes. I don't know if I need to fact-check this for you all. He didn't build anything. He has his name on some stuff. None of it is significant to the skyline. Oh, this guy I
0:04:16 Clip: Cancel these deals and she says why I said because if they can do this to a former president a man that lived in this city that built this skyline what can they do to me what will they do to you this one decision by the way will cost this city the city of new york hundreds of billions of dollars of lost tax revenues have you guys ever noticed go to any of these blue democratic, liberal cities, have you noticed that where they go, everything is more expensive?
0:04:23 Thomas: Know this guy nothing oh god you're
0:04:50 Clip: Everything. For
0:04:55 Thomas: My god yeah you're so right Have you noticed that where, what's the word for it? Where there's more, like, I don't know, for lack of a better word, demand, that the prices seem to go up from where there's no demand. I am an expert businessman, by the way, and I don' t understand that.
0:05:12 Lydia: I'm an expert businessman. Yeah yeah.
0:05:17 Clip: New York City, you have the highest rents in the country. You have the highest home prices in the county. You've got the highest food prices, the highest transportation, and the most crime.
0:05:28 Thomas: True. Hey, what about the income? Do you want to do that side of it? Or no? We just doing the costs?
0:05:35 Lydia: Also, can we talk per per capita when it comes to crime. Like, let's let's get in there.
0:05:39 Thomas: Exactly not What kind of job can you get in New York and what kind of job you get? Nothing. Yeah.
0:05:45 Lydia: Podunk nowhere.
0:05:46 Thomas: Exactly like Yes, that's how supply and demand works, you fucking idiot. I'm not a supporter of high home prices. Nobody is really. It's a bunch of, we talked, we don't have to get into it, but like, but where the people want to live, shocker, that's where the home prices will be more because that's the most literal basic thing of, of, and economics that there is yeah he
0:06:11 Lydia: No, the capitalist standing up on this stage acting like, yeah, that that this this It's surprising. Yeah.
0:06:17 Thomas: Might as well be saying like, you ever noticed that, like, buy low and sell high, that's good, but if you buy high and sell low, it's bad. Why? Must be the Democrats. Yeah.
0:06:27 Lydia: Who all wants to go to his conventions for $20 ,000?
0:06:28 Thomas: Is like
0:06:32 Clip: Politicians want taxes, not less. This is insanity, folks. Okay? Why do the politicians in blue cities want to raise your taxes because they live off your taxes this is how they get paid meanwhile
0:06:47 Thomas: But I saw this, this was that guy who did, did make that claim that he was gonna like pull out of his deals, of, he is on Fox News in 21st real estate investors ready isn't
0:06:56 Clip: Now some real estate investors are worried about working in New York City and owning property there. Private equity fund manager and real state investor Grant Grant Cardone told his employees, quote, immediately discontinue all underwriting on New York City real estate. The risk outweighs the opportunities at this time.
0:07:05 Thomas: That him oh
0:07:15 Clip: Focus on Texas and Florida. And Grant, we'll start now from down in Florida. Florida. Hey, Grant, how are you? Hey, thank you, Steve. I'm good this morning. Okay. Listen, I think that's kind of a no -brainer. I mean, I'm sitting in New York city. If I had my druthers, I would think that Florida or Texas would be a better bet, just given the fact there's so much crime and the fact that, as we've been detailing, the migrant crisis is zapping all of our resources here. This is not a good real estate market right now, right? It was an opportunity. We thought this year was the opportunity to come into Chicago, California, and New York City. I've been waiting for 40 years now to invest in that marketplace. Place I was completely confident steve this was the year to come and when that ruling happened uh it was like pencils down don't touch it don't go there we invest for 14 000 investors that caught on capital that depend on cash flow and if I can't predict the cash flow because of some ruling or because of the migrants or because
0:07:14 Lydia: So crazy yeah
0:07:19 Thomas: He's here so good what
0:08:17 Clip: I can evict people new york city just keeps doing every single thing they can to sell real estate in florida and not sell real state new yorke
0:08:18 Thomas: Are you talking about oh Okay, well then I guess those prices all be low then, right? Wow. I just for fun I googled there's and like a um finance post that's like hey any arguments for investing in cardoni capital which is his thing or whatever and one comment is just like, if he is as good as doing what I'm doing, I'm not going to, he's good at what he does, he wouldn't, 10k and 20k checks from us, dealing with small potato investors is an absolute nightmare. Oh, is also four years ago, I'm looking at this post and people are like, hey, my dad got obsessed with Grant Cardone based on his 10x book and he now invested 20k in his thing, like, is that a good idea, basically someone like posting that and
0:08:29 Lydia: Yeah that's gonna help that big city yeah
0:09:06 Thomas: They're like, no, he's shady as fuck, and this is four years ago. Oh, person says, I know, know nothing about Cardone or strategies, but there are a few red flags off the bat. Almost everything in the FAQ section is a video response with no links, even a text summary, much less a PDF statement. There are no statements about potential fees. Each investment only lists IRR and gives a specific number rather than a range or disclosures about risk to expanded return. There doesn't appear to be a redemption option or secondary market for the investment, so it's unclear how you would get your funds back if you don't like the results. Taxes are reported on a K -1, which is a nuisance at best and potentially painful if your earnings are high enough. Oh, a K -1. It's like you become an owner. Must Must be one guy. I made the minimum investment 5K. They send me a check every once in a while for a few dollars. I deposit in my account like less than $30. They will not let me sell my one share. They have declined my request to sell it. And it is not clear when I'll be able to get my 5K back.
0:09:10 Lydia: Let's yeah just stealing people's money basically uh
0:10:02 Thomas: That's incredible. Incredible. One guy is like, you invested 5k, get a check every once in a while, which is equal to less than 30 bucks. And you're saying you're not happy with it? If you got almost 30 bucks out of 5k. Why do you want to sell your share? And then that I
0:10:13 Lydia: How in the world did someone interpret it that way?
0:10:15 Thomas: Don't know the same commenter said, Oh wait, you said $30, right? Like next comment, $30. Oh, what a fucking idiot. This is so good. Okay. So, so more business acumen from this guy. I love it. It sucks because all they do is, is take money from people. But usually they get money for people I don't like anyway, like fucking, you old rich white businessmen. But it's so fucking dumb and they have no understanding of business. What
0:10:42 Clip: Million small business owners in America, they're breaking even or losing money. And lastly, the most insane of the insane.
0:10:53 Thomas: Hear it.
0:10:53 Clip: She wants to tax unrealized capital gains.
0:10:57 Thomas: Unbelievable.
0:11:00 Lydia: All the people booing. They don't get those, those. Yeah.
0:11:08 Clip: Her simp can sell this. Herkyboy says this would destroy the global economy and take the USA down with it. Ladies and gentlemen, Kamala Harris is the least qualified candidate to ever run for any political office in American history. She makes
0:11:18 Thomas: What well that's not true, Trump ran in 2016, is
0:11:39 Clip: Her boss look confident. She's a fake. I'm not here to invalidate her. She's not here. She's fake, a fraud, she's a pretender. Her and her pimp handlers will destroy our country. They will. They've
0:11:59 Lydia: Pimp handlers, by the way. Yeah. He came out, um, Biden, you know, said his garbage comment. Grant Cardone posted on Twitter, he never attacked anyone who votes for Harris, I just said she was incompetent, and I just listened to that. And I was like, no, you didn't. You called her a prostitute. Said not that she was incompetent, but that she was the least qualified person for any elected office ever in the history of this country. It's insane. It's insane.
0:12:31 Lydia: Also, a fact check on that unrealized capital gains tax. The plan, as it's currently proposed, would only impact those whose net worth is more than $100 million. So literally everyone cheering in Madison Square Garden on that, they're not going to be impacted.
0:12:42 Thomas: For fuck's sake dude I don't even think no Not at all, this all is just, just a scheme to get poor people to vote in the favor of rich people or
0:12:56 Lydia: And that money that would get taxed that would go into the government would be to fund services and roads and schools, things that those people would use and need.
0:13:01 Thomas: These people would use yeah Why, why are we this dumb as a, is a human race like why can't we do better I just wish oh
0:13:13 Lydia: I know. We're going to skip over the next speaker, Brooke Rollins. She was someone who worked in the Trump administration. There is some talk that she might be involved in the second administration, but it's all very rumor mill right now for her. Currently, the president and CEO of the America First Policy Institute, which she formed with Larry Kudlow. I want to get to our next speaker, who is hair dye sweater.
0:13:26 Thomas: Sorry I peeked ahead oh okay good god best the little guy from beetle juice
0:13:41 Lydia: Sweater.
0:13:41 Thomas: Who is gonna marry the two people at the end he's that thing I'm just realizing he literally is that exact thing so
0:13:48 Lydia: Disbarred extraordinaire, Giuliani, mayor of New York, America's mayor.
0:13:51 Thomas: Good it's I wish I, I want to watch the whole thing, I, I know he can't, but like he's so fucking stupid and nuts that I enjoy him, actually, like he's, he's reached that level, like I don't find him to be a threat of any kind, like all these, a lot of these people are like they're, are scary, he is so dumb, he's so past it, he's lost his mind so much, he's not threatening, he's just stupid, he's just gone
0:14:06 Lydia: I Yeah and And I will say that like his speech was not particularly good anyway, I mean, like with Trump standards, right um
0:14:20 Thomas: I'll be honest, it was more normal than I thought it would be, that's not the right word, it was less fucking insane than I thought it was okay
0:14:26 Lydia: Except let's go to 122 40 and I think that this is worth talking about
0:14:31 Clip: From here, we had the worst terrorist attack in the history of our country. I'll never, never forget that through all the pain and misery, we came together. Places of worship, hundreds of funerals, praying to God. What's happened to God?
0:14:37 Thomas: Yeah I
0:14:56 Clip: We don't pray to him anymore? We're not allowed to? You won't bring God back. We don't come back.
0:15:01 Thomas: Not allowed to what? Are we not allowed to I missed that yeah
0:15:13 Clip: September 11 was our darkest hour. October 7 was Israel's darkest hour!
0:15:21 Clip: They are our best friend. I worked for Ronald Reagan for eight years. Ronald Reagan said, We have to be there for Israel always, because they are always there for Reagan
0:15:37 Thomas: A thing they've done for us jesus christ to
0:15:38 Lydia: Something
0:15:52 Clip: And Jordan. They won't let him bring them. Two people I'm sorry I don't take a risk With people that are taught To kill Americans At two And
0:15:59 Thomas: Me why would, see that's funny, why would they waste time and resources teaching Palestinians to kill Americans at age two? You'd think, I mean, even just go with your thing, Rudy, you'd think they'd be more focused on Israelis, like, that, I don't think they would But yeah, like it's like what are the odds they're going to come across an American? It's like it's not like chances are slim. So I'm just calling bullshit. Just logically speaking, I don't think they do that. I don't think they bother with that. I don't think they, I mean, they probably don't like us because we fund the powerful nation that subjugates them and is now genociding them. That would be a reason that they probably wouldn't like us. I don't think they waste time teaching the children to kill. For one, all their schools have been bombed. So they can't do that because Israel has ruined their entire
0:16:25 Lydia: Closer yeah yeah they teach them anything yeah yeah yeah
0:16:56 Thomas: Fucking existence.
0:16:57 Lydia: I think it's also really interesting, too, that Rudy's piece here about, you know, like that Israel's there for us, we always got to be there for Israel, but so many of these speakers are talking about, um, either not really getting involved, or America first, you know, like let's focus on Americans with this one carve out this one exception.
0:17:12 Thomas: It is interesting. Yeah. It's also, I think, voting related. I think they think there's a constituency that they can get by supporting Israel. It is interesting because I don't know how much Trump cares beyond, I think Trump really doesn't care beyond just getting votes. Votes, um, did do the, like, moving the, was the, they did, they moved the embassy to whatever um but that's entirely to try to get votes, I don't think he actually cares about any of this and
0:17:37 Lydia: The embassy yeah it's catering yeah rudy then I just want to do a quick little uh arguments crossover note that Rudy's daughter Caroline, who is um, like her dad at all, she is pansexual and poly, and, and she actually serves on the board of the Chosen Family Law Center, Diana Adams organization. Yeah. Yeah. Isn't that cool? She seems awesome.
0:18:03 Thomas: What a, well, that's good. Good for her. Know? Come on, dear old dads and talk about what, dad's you sucking that'd be awesome
0:18:10 Lydia: Oh, my God. Yeah." Also going to skip over the next couple of people. I will mention who they are and like a couple of things about them. But I really want to get to an incredible, incredible moment in this rally. So the next speaker is Michael Harris, or Harry O. He's actually the Death Row Records co-founder. I pretend to know why he is doing the things that he is. But I feel like he is in Trump's camp because Trump is the one that commuted his sentence for drug trafficking at the very end of the Trump term. He was leaving, he had served like 30 years. He had petitioned Obama twice, and it wasn't commuted at that time, but Trump did. And so I feel like this is some sort of loyalty thing going on because I think like he says that school choice is part of the First Amendment. Things that he says about like drug offenses is so counter to what the Republicans want. The things that like are clearly values to him, I don'T see. They're not reflected in the platform. They're NOT reflected in that party's values. Use. And so I just don't think he I that's the only reason why he's doing this. But again, I can't
0:18:45 Thomas: Shit oh wow well
0:19:24 Lydia: Pretend to know that
0:19:25 Thomas: It's also it's all so I think we can't downplay the connection between fascism and misogyny and and for any, not to single this person out, for any man supporting Trump I question how much of it is sexism and misogyny, is just wanting that patriarchal environment. And it could be that I don't know this person at all. So I have no idea.
0:19:44 Thomas: But like there literally any man who supports Trump, I think that could easily be a part of the equation.
0:19:50 Lydia: Meanwhile, you know, Snoop Dogg, affiliated with Death Row Records at the time and, you Know, petitioned on behalf of Harris, Michael Harris, you Now, is is not voting for Trump. So I don't know. It's It's interesting. But this man has decided to make his plan.
0:20:04 Thomas: So we're skimming through him?
0:20:05 Lydia: Right. Skipping through him, skipping through Sergio Gore. He's the CEO for the Right for America PAC. He is known as the mayor of Mar -a -Lago. He's been affiliated with Trump for many, many years. And the Right for America PAC was established as an additional PAC on behalf of Trump to kind of bolster the, the Make America Great Again PAC. Now we're going to go to David Rem.
0:20:25 Thomas: This is, this old guy looks like he's dying in a Trump red hat. Okay. Oh,
0:20:29 Lydia: Is a childhood friend of Trump, and he actually tells the story. If you start at 1:44:10, we'll hear about his childhood with Trump and how their paths crossed.
0:20:41 Clip: A very distinguished gentleman Standing in front of me And he says when I opened the door Kid call your mom down please I called upstairs To my mom Mom there's some guy here Please come down And she came down And he told her I'm very sorry to hear about Joseph Rehm's death. I'm Fred Trump, Donald's father.
0:21:08 Clip: And my mom said yes, I know Donald Trump went to QFAR's school. He said yes Mrs. Rehm, but what you probably don't know is that I'm still on the board of trustees. And this morning, I let Phil Rogers, who's the headmaster at Kew Forest School, know that from this day forward, I, Fred Trump, out of my own pocket, is going to be paying for your three children's tuition at Krew Forest because I don't want the kids to have to go back into our school system. Now, when we do that, except in President Trump's form, and the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree. Can you imagine Camilla Harris performing a random, kind, generous act like that? Never, never ever.
0:22:08 Lydia: Camilla. Yeah.
0:22:11 Thomas: Well easily Yeah, what, what are you
0:22:16 Clip: In fact, she is the devil who ever screamed that out. She's the antichrist. At her rally last week, she said that Jesus Christ followers are not welcome at my rally, that you should go down the block to President Trump's rally. Let me say this, and maybe I'm speaking for the President and I shouldn't, but I know that President Trump loves Jesus followers at his rally, and
0:22:16 Thomas: Talking about out what oh my god oh oh yeah I bet she said that yeah sorry
0:22:44 Lydia: And we have a crucifix, ladies and gentlemen.
0:22:54 Clip: When he has experience, knows that Jesus is the one who is going to be the one to be chosen. Jackie and
0:23:15 Thomas: This is I
0:23:15 Lydia: I know.
0:23:16 Clip: I'm lucky to be standing here if it wasn't for this man jesus christ I wouldn't be standing here all we
0:23:16 Lydia: I know you have to keep going. There's more.
0:23:25 Thomas: Know I'm so good this is oh
0:23:27 Clip: Have here in new york eric adams is a disaster this matter is worse than bill de blasio and david dickens combined I just want to say this the cross that I'm holding is the cross my mother beatrice ram used to hold in the air when she prayed at night every night for donald trump and his family because we knew three years ago that he was going to be his life is going to be attempted to kill because they don't want to face Donald Trump at the ballot box, so they'll do anything they can, imprison them, kill them, and I'm just going to wrap this up, and I just want to tell President Trump that I'm fluent in Spanish and I will follow you to the swing states
0:23:28 Thomas: My God yeah I agree I Agree. Timely dinkins reference what what what
0:24:11 Clip: And I speak in spain to the latino voters and I will make a difference this
0:24:14 Thomas: Is This a job interview? Is
0:24:20 Lydia: it'S better.
0:24:24 Clip: Will switch in for your firm up an announcement here, I'm gonna, I, I decided, I am going to make a run for mayor of New York City. I want to say that we need...
0:24:30 Thomas: Latino. Oh, I will, oh yes, okay, day for mayor, mayor
0:24:47 Lydia: It doesn't exist.
0:25:07 Thomas: What the family does. First he wanted to bless the continent, and oh my god this This is just Eli doing a character and it's a brilliant
0:25:30 Lydia: So yeah um I know, he, Camilla, first of all, right, Camilla Harris and then called her the antichrist, um, so his, his mayor website does not exist, I have searched for it yeah he announced his mayor candidacy, and he said, go to David Rem for mayor, and then didn't finish his thought. And I've searched and I cannot find it, it's even better than this. So David Rem is, he's a little bit of like a MAGA agitator in places, um, and yeah
0:25:43 Thomas: I can't find it either. Yeah. He's 60. Isn't that a little young to be?
0:26:07 Lydia: So here's the thing they went to that school 17 years before david rem went there two weeks ago david ram attended some sort of rally kind of thing october 14th and yelled from the crowd, your father paid for my tuition. Then he says, three kids, 1974, Q Forest. And then Trump points at him. That was the first time they met, October 14th. Then he was listed as a speaker at Trump's homecoming event and as his childhood friend childhood friend that's insane that's insane so this guy also um he kind of has man like you could kind of tell he's a little all over the place there
0:26:51 Thomas: This is amazing. Yeah. Yeah. There's something wrong with this guy. Like I felt bad for a second until it got so stupid and evil and funny
0:26:54 Lydia: There is something wrong um it's nuts, um, he, like, he harasses migrants, he, you really a crappy, crappy person. But back in 1991, so this is a shout out to the Handbasket independent journalism outlet, and found a court record from 1991 for a person matching his name and birth date, Rem was arrested for going from L.A. to Chicago. He had a suitcase of 18 kilograms of cocaine, pleaded guilty to possession with intent to distribute, and was sentenced to 151 months in prison. I was like, how much is, I'm really bad with like the metric system, so I'm like, what is what is kilogram?
0:27:35 Thomas: That seems like a lot oh
0:27:36 Lydia: It is a lot. It would be probably about two million dollars in 1991 for retail. Yeah, that's a lot. So, makes a point saying, like, I don't really care about him having a criminal record, but it's just rich that they're constantly blaming migrants for the surging drug crisis. And here's this guy who's pretending to be a childhood friend of his that was actually found guilty of trying to distribute cocaine across halfway across the country yeah and really incredible. So David Rem, um, I'm gonna keep an eye out and see if his mayor website ever, ever he's not a stranger to politics though because like He he did attempt to run for Congress in District 14 of New York. But he was also the campaign manager last year for a Republican city council candidate from Queens named Jonathan David Rinaldi. And this guy is a serial sperm donor. And so one of the the things that David Rem helped to try and like make known is that, you you know, Rinaldi wasn't vaccinated. So he has superior genetic material and that will help fight corruption because he's going, I think he had over 12 kids in two years from his sperm. So Rinaldi specifically said, I'd like as many as God will give me. Why put your entire bloodline into one child when you can spread it out. 18 is a holy number in Judaism and the next one is 36, so I'll reassess then. Yeah, yeah, so there we go, David

0:29:45 Lydia: God gross I not see that that that's so gross yeah yeah
0:30:29 Thomas: Couldn't let us kids go to the public schools just like oh okay the public, back back to thinking you're hilarious and not caring that, that you're weird that's so funny, he's, he's crying because the public school system, oh, David Rem, wow, I, that was, that was incredible, hun, that was, I'm glad I I'll say this I'm I am glad I watched him on one x speed that's that was that alone was yeah

0:31:10 David: The david I'm rem yeah here. I am standing very, very far from my microphone, as far as I physically can.
0:31:26 David: I want to show you something. I want to tell you something, when I was two years old, Ivanka Trump came to my house and she said, said, David, you're not going to believe this, but you're on fire. And she wrapped me in a blanket made of unborn fetuses and saved my life. I want to show you something. Give me a second. Give me a second. I got to get it. I gotta get it. This is the noose my father used to hang himself every night he would swing back and forth from the ceiling and as he lost consciousness with me holding his legs tight as I possibly could he would say I'll never be the man donald trump will be in approximately 62 .3 years and that was I loved him for that I have a message I have message smiths I speak a little portuguese not a lot, not conversational, but I have the app, I have the app with the Gay Owl, and I'm gonna say something, and maybe I shouldn't speak for the Smiths here I think that Gay Owl is not welcome in the Smith home because it's a predator and it'll turn your trance, and I have an announcement, I'm running for president now so that I can concede to Donald Trump, because conceding to Donald Trump would be the greatest honor of my life. I

0:34:28 Thomas: You're done forever what what I was laughing about so much is like when we first started playing the clip I was like oh this is kind of okay Okay, is this a, you know, a mentally ill guy who had a meaningful moment with Trump? And then he goes like, Eddie saved us from the public school system. So it's like, from then on, it's perfect.
0:34:48 David: The public school system. Him who yeah would do that it's interesting it's insane can camilla you imagine camilla camilla does he call her yeah camilla harris it's yeah camilla camilla hair harris is doing a thing like that no she's the antichrist

0:36:07 Thomas: Thank you eli bosnick most talented podcaster that is the best I'm gonna die what fresh hell is next for us
0:36:14 David: Be in heaven all
0:36:19 Lydia: All Right. Well, Dan Scavino was up next. We're not going to really talk about him too much. His speech was, you know, kind of pretty boring, but he was the White House deputy chief of staff for communications, served for Trump as the director of social media, and is a political advisor now for his campaign. Old white guy, Dan Scavino though, is Mr. Stephen Miller and architect of Trump travel ban, one of his political advisors. He formed America First Legal, which is the group that is representing Scott Gerber in his case against Ohio Northern University. A real piece of work, this guy.
0:36:40 Thomas: Fuck what a bummer travel Boy, yeah, this one he's so evil and might be so damaging that it's like hard to want to make jokes all
0:37:02 Clip: And shout on behalf of all of you, fight, fight, fight, and what was he fighting for?, he was fighting for your children, for your wives, your husbands, everyone that you love and know in the the right to live in a country, where criminal gangs cannot just cross our border, and rape and murder with impunity, think about how corrupt and hateful and evil, a system is, that allows gangs to come into this country, and rape and murder little girls I'm not just saying that you've read the stories it happens every day you read one of these heartbreaking headlines who's gonna stand up for our daughters who's gonna stand out for the girls of America the women of America the families of America who's going to stand up and say the cartels are gone the criminal migrants are gone the gangs are gone America is for Americans and Americans only she
0:37:32 Thomas: That would be. Does? Oof.
0:37:59 Lydia: That's pretty concerning rhetoric, I would say.
0:38:01 Thomas: Yeah, America's for Americans and Americans Only is very, close a lot of the actual, like, fascist rhetoric from the 1939 rally. Like,
0:38:09 Lydia: I bet. Yeah know obviously you can always count on Stephen Miller to be incredibly xenophobic and anti-immigrant. That's exactly what he delivered in his speech. Up is Steve Witkoff, the ceo of Witkopf Group. But previously, he worked for a real state law firm that represented Trump. And so they have, you know, a business relationship that's gone for a long time. Really remarkable from him. And then Byron Donald, who is a representative from Florida in the House. He was part of the Tea Party movement. He is also an election denier. And if we go to 213.16, we'll hear a little bit from him regarding Kamala Harris.
0:38:45 Clip: Broke She broke the border and doesn't even have the guts to tell you the truth, but that's okay because the next president of the United States, he's going to fix the border because he did it once and he's gonna do it again. She unleashed the massive inflation that has made it harder for every working family in our country. If she was around when I was a kid, it would have devastated my mom who still lives in Brooklyn. Hi mom. How you doing?
0:39:03 Thomas: Is
0:39:25 Clip: And you think she has an answer for the people who are trying to find ways to get ahead? No, she doesn't. Nothing but word salad. I kind of like salad. Everybody should have some. It's healthy. It is good for you. But this word salad mess is demented. It is meant to make you think that she's smart and you're somehow dumb. The truth of the matter is, the common sense of the American people is what is needed today. And that will be brought by Donald J. Trump. But
0:39:59 Lydia: There's one more clip I do want to play from this guy that gets some of the biggest cheers that I heard from the rally, you know, like non-Trump speaker anyway, if
0:40:08 Clip: The last thing we're going to fix, and it's a big one. You see, I got three kids. They're all boys. And I'll be damned if you're going have some school tell my boys that they can now be girls. Not on my watch, not on the watch of Donald Trump, I can promise you that. We're going to have common sense in America again under Donald Trump. We're gonna get men out of women's sports under Donald trump. Law
0:40:41 Thomas: I always say, I agree. Get men out of women's sports. Totally right.
0:40:45 Lydia: So unsurprising, the anti-trans rhetoric is what is, you meat to these people and they're just like absolutely enthralled by it. It's exactly what they're looking for.
0:40:53 Thomas: That is a very valuable part of you going through the hell of watching this entire thing is seeing which issues resonate the most, because that is going to be what Trump is nothing if not very responsive to his audience. You know, he wants to go where they want him to go. And and yeah, I mean, I Think that's that tells you that it's almost like the bigger the cheers you're hearing, the more under threat, whatever that thing is. It's scary. God,
0:41:23 Lydia: Donald's just a little fun fact, was blocked from joining the Congressional Black Caucus. So he's kind of on his little lonely island. Stefanik was next. New York representative. She was the chair of the House Republican Conference. She's the one who was responsible for grilling all of the college presidents regarding the Israel-Palestine protests that were happening on campus. Feathering her cap about getting them fired, too. Oh, she does.
0:41:47 Thomas: Someone who I feel like knows better too. Like she seems really smart.
0:41:52 Lydia: She joined Congress, she was like pretty moderate and moved to the Trump side. Like this is this is strategic for her.
0:41:57 Thomas: Makes it worse for me personally.
0:42:00 Lydia: Does make it worse. It does make worse. Then she was followed by Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House, former attorney with the Alliance Defending Freedom. Son, you all know monitors his devices to see they don't masturbate together because they have to report if if either of them is looking at porn.
0:42:10 Thomas: They masturbate together or they don't masturbate. Hey, son, want to not masturbate right now?
0:42:19 Lydia: Yeah.
0:42:19 Thomas: Sure. I cannot believe that this guy's real. I still don't think he is. I think he's the default. Like when you're making a congressman, like just the, like the video game, it's just the defaults for the character creation.
0:42:23 Lydia: Know. Yeah. The avatar. Yeah, yeah,
0:42:31 Thomas: Yeah. And then you have to like, if you want to be anything different, you got to adjust it. He's also just like a Colbert character or something.
0:42:38 Clip: And peace through strength and fiscal responsibility, free markets, human dignity, secure borders. But the other team doesn't anymore, my friends. This is not your father's democratic party.
0:42:48 Thomas: Wonder how many people don't actually know who this is. Like genuinely, I would be, I bet you a bunch of this crowd is like, who the the fuck is this guy? Cause he's not dynamic. He's not entertaining and nobody cares. None of these people actually care about the goings on of real government. They probably don't even know who he is.
0:43:06 Clip: They are now full on to Marxism and socialism. They don't envision for us to save the founding principles and the greatest nation in the history of the world. Instead, what they envision for is that we would be some sort of European-style, Marxist, borderless utopia. We all know that's a dangerous fool's errand. You know what's going to happen in nine days? The American people are going to let their voices be heard. We are going take this country back. Who
0:43:12 Thomas: Fucking A.
0:43:37 Lydia: What the Democrats want. Okay, Mike Johnson. Will play a role in some of Trump's comments later and
0:43:45 Thomas: Know, serious point, not for nothing. Doubt I'll have time for it, but I wanted to do the debate between, uh, Ben Stiller. No, uh. Ben Shapiro and Sam Harris And in that debate just casually throws out the like, yeah, Kamala, open border. It's like, no, you that's just factually inaccurate.
0:43:53 Lydia: Shapiro and Sam Harris. Know.
0:44:05 Thomas: That people on the left, I've gone back and forth on this because I have thought thought that some of what Biden did may have been necessary to get reelected. Um just so hard to know because they've actually been very strict on the border they've no sense in which it's now an open border and under trump it wasn't like it's it's it's very similar like they're actually doing and fact that every single idiot on the stage just about every single one has talked about how the border is open now and that's what trump's got to fix. It just means that like, okay, moderating on that doesn't do anything. Only thing is it may just not do anything for this hard right crowd. It might be that the centrists that maybe we're trying to reach in some of these Rust Belt states, like maybe they are reached by the fact that Biden tried to do that border bill and then Trump didn't let him. I'm not sure, but like, it's worth thinking about. Like, it may be entirely true that no matter what what we do on the border or what a Democrat does on the border, they'll still be painted by Trump as open borders, open borders. So it doesn't matter. So it might, so might as well do something compassionate. That would be nice.
0:45:06 Thomas: Right. What was the next thing?
0:45:07 Lydia: Vivek Ramaswamy.
0:45:08 Thomas: Most irritating person in the world.
0:45:11 Lydia: So we have a few clips from him because it's just it's gold. I mean it's it's amazing. Loved every second of it. His entrance is really goofy but we're going going to go ahead and swing over to 233 even to hear what he has to say about identity politics so
0:45:26 Thomas: This will be great.
0:45:27 Clip: Is going to be more happy than everybody else in this room when that happens. And that is goingto be a man by the name of Joe Biden, actually. He is so pissed off about what they did to him.
0:45:42 Clip: And, you know, he's thinking it, but I'm going to say it. Identity politics never works in America. When you select somebody on the basis of their race and their gender, it always ends up being a disaster. And I'm actually talking about Tim Walz this time, by the way. It goes both ways.
0:46:05 Clip: Listen up, guys. Last year I became the youngest person ever to run for U.S. President as a Republican. Thank you. I appreciate that.
0:46:13 Thomas: Can't be right.
0:46:15 Clip: And I'll tell you something about my generation. We are lost. We are hungry to be part of something bigger than ourselves. Yet we can't even answer what it means to be an American today. We're in the middle of a national identity crisis. Crisis, faith in God, patriotism, hard work, family. These things have disappeared, only be replaced by wokeism and transgenderism, climatism, COVIDism, depression, anxiety, fentanyl, suicide. These are symptoms of a deeper void of purpose and meaning in our country. And right now we need to step up and fill that void with our own vision.
0:46:30 Thomas: Can answer that. I was born here. And so I guess I'm an American with orange.
0:47:00 Clip: Answer what does it mean to be an American in the year 2024? It means we believe in the ideals of 1776. It means that we believe merit, that the best person gets the job regardless of their skin color, that you get ahead in this country, not on the color of your skin, but on the content of your character and your contributions. That's why we're done with the woke DEI agenda, bringing in meritocracy to America.
0:47:00 Thomas: Jesus.
0:47:29 Clip: It means, we believe the rule of law, y'all, and I say this as the kid of legal immigrants to this country, I'm
0:47:35 Lydia: Can What do you think about that?
0:47:38 Thomas: Is pretty amazing. Like are a soulless psychopath like this guy is and you want to just ascend to sociopath and you want to descend to power. It's so funny to be seeing that message because what that message is is racism. It's really it's just an interesting thing to behold that like explicitly thing he's saying is ostensibly anti -racism meant to appeal to obviously racists like it's so eerie to be like yeah we're bringing back not being judged by by your skin but content of character and you like it is almost word for word what like luther king might have said a time or two but what he actually means and what the audience hears is Because finally, the fucking people of color no longer will get the extra edge that I believe they get because of Fox News. Like they will know right now, black people, they get free college and they get admitted first. And now this guy and it must be right because he's not white. So not racist because he sang it and It's like it's so fucking calculated and predictable and eerie. It's it's just something to behold it really is
0:48:51 Lydia: Skipping a little bit to the end of his speech, 236, 56, he does kind of like his sales pitch for Trump. Mm
0:48:59 Clip: Going to give you one more reason to vote Trump, and it's this. It's the one the media in the back, they won't talk about this, but they know it to be true. Donald Trump is actually the president who will unite this country actually, and we don't talk about that enough.
0:49:20 Clip: America first includes includes all Americans, regardless of their race, their gender, or their sexual orientation. Our message to black Americans tonight is this. We want you, what we want for every American, safe neighborhoods, good jobs, clean streets, a country where you are judged based on the content of your character, not the color of your skin or your political beliefs. That's the America we know. Our message to gay Americans tonight is this. You're free to marry who you want, if you want without the government standing in your way. But that doesn't mean that boys get to compete with girls in girls sports or you do genital mutilation and chemical castration on our children.
0:50:10 Thomas: Not oh my god he
0:50:14 Clip: Our message for every legal immigrant in this country is this You're like my parents. But our message to every illegal immigrant, if you came legally, you get the same American dream that everybody else does. Work hard, get ahead, make contributions to this country, love the nation, and that's our message to legal immigrants. But our messages to every legal immigrant is also this. We will return you to your country of origin. Not because you're all bad people, but because you broke the law. And the United States of America is founded on the rule of law.
0:50:53 Clip: Our message to my generation, the millennials, is this. You were sold a false bill of goods. You were told you'd become a gender studies major in California. Somehow that gets you a head start on the American dream when it hasn't worked out that way. Dead on your shoulders, the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Yes, it's true you were lied to. But we can't just be cynical about our country because this is still the last best hope that we have in the free world. And our message to Gen Z is this you're going to be the generation that saves the country you want to be a rebel 18 years old stand up on your college campus and call yourself a conservative be proud of it say you want to get married have kids raise a family and have a good job that's how we win in America we don't have to be this nation in decline we are still on our way up we're still that country where we will look our children in the eye and mean it when we tell them you get ahead in the united states with your own hard work your own commitment your own dedication and that you know what you are free to speak your mind at every step of the way that is the american dream that is what we are running to and that is what we get when we send donald trump back to the white house this november thank you god bless you and the great state of new york and may god bless our united states States of America. Thank you. God bless.
0:52:15 Clip: Thank you, guys.
0:52:14 Thomas: Is trying so hard to be obama it's really funny he does the exact same like intonations and stuff like try him but he can't be too obvious I think because it's like it's not like he's trying to be obama he's like a forbidden study of obama because like obviously these people all hate obama so it's like trying to do enough of it but not look like he is doing it yeah you know Ramaswamy is interesting because I genuinely don't know. Like loses if or if he finally dies, there has to be someone they turn to. I don't Know that that person can possibly be successful because I think it's going to be really hard. Person will be successful, because the party and the machinery and the Trumpers and the MAGA have to go somewhere. But I also don't think anyone is Trump.
0:52:57 Thomas: I think, is doing his best to provide that alternative now. Like, I mean, it seems like he's dropped a lot of that sarcastic teenager tone he had in the debates, which was just just intolerable. I he thought he was being Trump in that way, but just everyone hated it. Speech is more along the lines of something that you might think would be successful. He's not white. And I just don't know. Like, I just Don't know if that works in the Republican Party, especially as it is now. Have sorted more than ever. Like we have now sorted ourselves into parties more than ever where more of the racists are on the right and less of them are on the left. It just has been what happened with Trump. So I just don't know that like they might be comfortable with him in a certain role. They might be uncomfortable with him. In a supporting role. They I don't knows that they'll ever. I think he'll be constantly striving to attain this thing that he never can because of racism that he's feeding into. He's using he's trying to use it. To reach a higher level of power, but I think he ultimately will be limited by it, but I don't know for sure. I'm not positive.
0:54:01 Lydia: I think you're right. I mean, do you remember back during the primary when someone was interviewed? I don't remember if it was the town hall or whatever. And they were like, I just, you know, his people did 9 -11 and I just can't, I just can't get over it.
0:54:15 Thomas: I do remember that.
0:54:15 Lydia: Yeah. Like, I'm sorry, the party that you're trying to affiliate yourself with, like, they don't like you. They don't, like they don't like your race. Don't like your ethnicity. They don't like you're your heritage.
0:54:17 Thomas: I don't know. They like to use people of color for a purpose, and when you're in there filling that role, they might cheer for you. You step out of that, I don't think they will.
0:54:35 Lydia: You're there. Get out of jail free card kind of thing if they're ever.
0:54:38 Thomas: That' s the role. Yeah. Right so impossibly there is still more to go hun and we went out with it we went we went with a good one there uh but But there is so much more to get to. And we are pumping it out as fast as we can. Can we look forward to in the next iteration of this, huh?
0:54:55 Lydia: Man. All right. Have, man, health and human services czar potentially, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. We got Tucker Carlson coming up. Got Mr. Hulk Hogan. Are a lot of great things coming on up.
0:55:06 Thomas: Man. Oh man yeah there's other people that you might not even realize are at this rally like for real all right looking forward to that support the show patreon.com/wherethereswoke thank you so much for those who do and we'll see you next time ban yeah
0:55:41 Lydia: Travel plan, political advisor. I say? Oh, yeah. The I just, you know, his people did 9 -11 and I
0:55:49 Thomas: I'm gonna die
0:55:52 David: Be in heaven all right I'll talk to you guys later
