Louisiana's congressional districts, which it redrew following the 2020 census, currently sit in a state of legal uncertainty.The map initially only had one majority-black district. However, following a 2022 case called Robinson v. Ardoin (later Laundry), which held that it violated section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, Louisiana re-drew the map to include two majority-black congressional districts.In January 2024, a different set of plaintiffs sued alleging the new map violated the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. A 2-1 panel agreed the new map violated the Equal Protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and enjoined the new map. Given the timing, the case briefly went up to the Supreme Court which granted an emergency application for stay, citing Purcell v. Gonzalez. That allowed the 2022 map to be used for the 2024 elections.Now the case is before the Supreme Court again, this time with a range of issues for the court to address including: (1) Whether the majority of the three-judge district court in this case erred in finding that race predominated in the Louisiana legislature’s enactment of S.B. 8; (2) whether the majority erred in finding that S.B. 8 fails strict scrutiny; (3) whether the majority erred in subjecting S.B. 8 to the preconditions specified in Thornburg v. Gingles; and (4) whether this action is non-justiciable.Join us for a post-oral argument Courthouse Steps program where we will break down and analyze how oral argument went before the Court.

Callais (March 24) - Election law, Civil Rights; Issue(s): (1) Whether the majority of the three-judge district court in this case erred in finding that race predominated in the Louisiana legislature’s enactment of S.B. 8; (2) whether the majority erred in finding that S.B. 8 fails strict scrutiny; (3) whether the majority erred in subjecting S.B. 8 to the preconditions specified in Thornburg v.

Bondi (March 24) - Immigration; Issue(s): (1) Whether 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1)'s 30-day deadline is jurisdictional, or merely a mandatory claims-processing rule that can be waived or forfeited; and (2) whether a person can obtain review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' decision in a withholding-only proceeding by filing a petition within 30 days of that decision.Environmental Protection Agency v. Calumet Shreveport Refining (March 25) - Jurisdiction, Federalism & Separation of Powers; Issue(s): Whether venue for challenges by small oil refineries seeking exemptions from the requirements of the Clean Air Act’s Renewable Fuel Standard program lies exclusively in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit because the agency’s denial actions are “nationally applicable” or, alternatively, are “based on a determination of nationwide scope or effect.”Oklahoma v. Environmental Protection Agency (March 25) - Jurisdiction, Federalism & Separation of Powers; Issue(s): Whether a final action by the Environmental Protection Agency taken pursuant to its Clean Air Act authority with respect to a single state or region may be challenged only in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit because the agency published the action in the same Federal Register notice as actions affecting other states or regions and claimed to use a consistent analysis for all states.Federal Communications Commission v. Consumers’ Research (March 26) - Federalism & Separation of Powers; Issue(s): (1) Whether Congress violated the nondelegation doctrine by authorizing the Federal Communications Commission to determine, within the limits set forth in 47 U.S.C. § 254, the amount that providers must contribute to the Universal Service Fund; (2) whether the FCC violated the nondelegation doctrine by using the financial projections of the private company appointed as the fund's administrator in computing universal service contribution rates; (3) whether the combination of Congress’s conferral of authority on the FCC and the FCC’s delegation of administrative responsibilities to the administrator violates the nondelegation doctrine; and (4) whether this case is moot in light of the challengers' failure to seek preliminary relief before the 5th Circuit.Catholic Charities Bureau v.

Welcome to Supreme Court Opinions. In this episode, you'll hear the Court's opinion in Allen v Milligan. In this case, the court considered this issue: Does Alabama's 2021 redistricting plan for its seven U-S House seats violate Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act? The case was decided on June 8, 2023. The Supreme Court held that The district court correctly applied binding Supreme Court precedent to conclude that Alabama's redistricting map likely violates Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. Chief Justice John Roberts authored the majority opinion of the Court. The Court's decision in Thornburg v Gingles sets out a three-part framework for evaluating claims brought under Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. First, the plaintiffs must prove that the minority group is sufficiently large and geographically compact to constitute a majority in a reasonably configured district (measured by criteria such as contiguity and compactness). Second, the plaintiffs must show that the minority group is politically cohesive. Third, the plaintiffs must show that under the totality of the circumstances, the political process is not “equally open” to minority voters. The majority applied that three-part framework to the facts in the record and agreed with the district court that the plaintiffs were likely to succeed on their challenge. The plaintiffs submitted maps demonstrating the traditional districting criteria, and the district court found “no serious dispute” that Black voters are politically cohesive or that the challenged districts' white majority consistently defeated Black voters' preferred candidates. Justice Brett Kavanaugh joined the majority opinion except for a discussion of the difference between race-consciousness and race-predominance. He concurred separately to emphasize and clarify four additional points. Justice Clarence Thomas authored a dissenting opinion, in which Justice Neil Gorsuch joined in full, and Justices Amy Coney Barrett and Samuel Alito joined in part. Justice Thomas argued that Section 2 of the VRA does not require Alabama to redraw its congressional districts so that Black voters can control a number of seats proportional to Black voters in its population. Justice Alito authored a dissenting opinion in which Justice Gorsuch joined arguing that the majority's understanding of Gingles—specifically its understanding of the phrase “reasonably configured” within the context of the first precondition—is flawed, and that a correct understanding would lead to a different result in this case. The opinion is presented here in its entirety, but with citations omitted. If you appreciate this episode, please subscribe.

In episode 552, Megan chats to Parker Thornburg about his recent experience of buying an existing blog, how it is different to starting a new one and practical advice for succeeding as a blogger regardless of which path you choose. Parker Thornburg worked at Yahoo for 8 years in Omaha, NE. After Parker left Yahoo to enter the startup world, he told his manager of 8 years that he wanted to stay connected and possibly even own a business together someday. That day came in April 2023 when they purchased a food blog, Foodness Gracious, that had been established since 2012. They continue to work full-time jobs while spending all of their spare time trying to grow Foodness Gracious. Parker has an amazing wife of 23 years and three great children aged 18, 16 and 11. In this episode, you'll learn about which factors you should evaluate before buying or selling an existing blog (or starting a new one), including time, energy, goals, and budget, and making sure your passion aligns with the blog's niche and target audience. Key points discussed: - Time and energy considerations are important when deciding to buy or sell a blog: How much time and effort is required to keep the blog going and is it worth it? - Passion for the topic is important: Don't pursue a niche that you do not really feel passionate about. - Know your strengths and weaknesses: Outsource tasks that you feel less confident in and focus on tasks that you are skilled at. - Change the blog design only if it really makes an improvement: Analyze your analytics to know what impact your design had. - Audience engagement must be maintained during transitions: Try to smoothly transition ownership by respecting the previous owner's vision and followers. - Social media isn't always traffic-driving: You can focus on posting regularly for followers but don't have to obsess over engagement metrics. - Intentionality helps prevent burnout: To maintain a healthy work-life balance set clear boundaries.

We kick off our new "Love & Legal Tech" series this week where we embark on a journey to explore the personal and professional lives of couples in the legal tech industry. We are excited to interview couples who share in the excitement of weaving their professional endeavors into their personal relationships. We think this is going to be a great series where couples get a chance to tell their stories of how they balance what one of our guests describes as "Work-Life-Integration." Our inaugural guests, Alex Macdonald and Cassie Vertovec share their unique story of how a solid professional collaboration slowly turned into a deep, personal connection.  Alex, the Chief Strategy Officer at McCarter and English, LLP, and Cassie, the Practice Director of Corporate and Director of Practice Strategies at Barnes & Thornburg, began their journey in the legal tech world at Seyfarth Shaw.  Over the years they have found themselves leading teams together, moving across the country, isolating together during the pandemic, and most recently working in similar firms. They navigated their careers with mutual respect and understanding, highlighting the importance of communication and shared values in both their professional and personal lives. They provide insights into the dynamics of working as a couple while maintaining a balance between work and persona life. Which is no easy feat as they are both intertwined with the legal profession. Their story is a testament to the idea that professional collaboration can lead to personal growth and deeper connections. Our hopes with the "Love & Legal Tech" series are that we not only offer a glimpse into the lives of a couple navigating love and legal tech but also shed light on broader themes within the legal industry, including the shift towards greater tech integration and the challenges and opportunities it presents. Our sincere thanks to Cassie and Alex for sharing their story with us on this series premiere.

Original Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2833leAfE9g&t=1242s Dr. E. Michael Jones visits the local public access channel studio in downtown South Bend to discuss with Peter Helland his understanding of the very controversial decision to continue to retain the retired Jewish lawyer of Barnes and Thornburg, Alan Feldbaum, to his high position within the St. Joseph County Public Library. Many local citizens and particularly mothers, represented by county council member, Amy Drake, want him replaced. Feldbaum has been insisting that the children section contain books like "Flamer" and "This Book is Gay." The mothers and many others feel this makes it morally unsafe for their children to be in the children's section of the library. Amy Drake thought for sure the three Republican conservative county commissioners would support her. Instead as Dr. Jones says, they stabbed her in the back. While this extremely important 10 am meeting was taking place, only two hours later at 12 o'clock the Republicans were holding a meeting at the Juday Creek golf course to listen to "conservative" radio talk show host Casey Hendrickson and common council member Eli Wax give a talk on "Understanding Israel" in light of the war in Gaza. After the hour talk Jones was given the first question. Jones said the talk was an insult to the intelligence of the audience. Hendrickson immediately started "sparring" with Jones. Finally Hendrickson said: "I know who you are. The ADL says you are an antisemite." This galvanized the crowd against Jones. But fortunately Mike came with some friends that created a buffer for him. Mike never was allowed to say his peace at the meeting but now on public access and youtube he can get his important message out: Both political parties in St. Joseph County and South Bend are controlled way too much by the Jewish citizens and outside Jewish influence he says. And this is happening all over the country. He says we must take back our country and get representatives that actually represent the majority. ——— NOW AVAILABLE!

Earlier this month, the Supreme Court handed down a major voting rights decision in the Allen v. Milligan case. In a 5-4 ruling, the Court upheld Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and found that Alabama's 2022 congressional map likely violated Section 2. This comes as a surprising victory for voting rights and the Thornburg v. Gingles (1986) test after a series of other Supreme Court cases that have narrowed the scope of the Voting Rights Act, including the Brnovich v. DNC case in 2021 and Shelby County v. Holder in 2013. The decision was written by Chief Justice John Roberts and was joined by Justice Brett Kavanaugh along with the liberal justices. In this episode, Jason Torchinsky of Holtzman Vogel and Rick Hasen of UCLA School of Law join host Jeffrey Rosen to break down the Allen decision; discuss why Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Kavanaugh voted with the liberal justices to uphold the Gingles framework; what other conservative justices Thomas, Alito and Gorsuch wrote in dissent; and what this means for redistricting and voting rights in 2024 and beyond.  Resources: Allen v.

So let's talk about bioethical intervention... The medical community has a rich history of false information, and it even got to a point when the community itself was the perpetrator of fake news. Mis- and disinformation have become so prevalent that even in the age of the internet, it remains to be the most difficult challenge healthcare workers have to win against. But that doesn't mean that we will and shall remain silent against all the misinformation and disinformation that's been thrown our way, especially in the middle of the pandemic. That's why for this episode, I invited Evan Thornburg, a bioethicist and TikTok content creator who aims to battle public health disinformation and misinformation by educating people on issues concerning public health. Do not become a victim of these social media “experts” and their unverified and mostly untruthful claims. Join Evan and me as we talk about the importance of acknowledging and understanding the roots of both mis- and disinformation in the medical field. Gather tips on how to effectively combat fake news both as a content creator and as part of the audience. Why you need to check this episode: Discover how the internet has affected the overall situation of medical misinformation and disinformation, both positively and negatively; Find out why you should first acknowledge and validate the reasons of people who believe in conspiracy theories instead of dismissing them right away; and Learn why you should never talk to an audience in such a way that would make you sound like the smartest person in the room. “I don't want to explain ‘why this is wrong'. What I want to explain is what someone is doing. What I want to explain is the technique they're using. What I want to explain is how you can see this for yourself. Fortifying or sharpening everybody's abilities to identify the problem means that I don't have to be there every time a new concept comes out.” – Evan Thornburg Notable Quotes: “Misinformation has been a bit of a keystone in medicine when we start to look at it through the lens of the history of medicine, especially of black and brown bodies.” – Evan Thornburg “One of the things that I've learned in researching and trying to understand people's consumption of disinformation and misinformation and conspiracy theories is that they experience an intensity of fear and anxiety around health and health information. And I think it's fair to affirm that. I think the first place that a lot of folks go wrong is denying them that reality.” – Evan Thornburg “We've overbought into the marketplace of ideas. We've overdrunk that Kool-Aid too deep like the best idea will just naturally float on top. It doesn't. The most exciting idea, the most promoted idea, the most beneficial financially idea does.” – Evan Thornburg “We don't have a natural propensity towards integrity… Most people choose integrity when they think something has the integrity to it.

First. We gotta get this one outta the way cuz it's kind of a big one.  is discussing Alec Baldwin's recent charge of involuntary manslaughter in the tragic, horrific death of Helena Hutchins. If you could recall on the set of Russ, we'll be diving into all the details of that case and examining his role in the absolutely preventable tragedy that occurred. After that, we will be discussing the recent arrest of teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg will be exposing the truth behind her recent so-called arrest and examining her role in the larger globalist agenda. We'll also be discussing the recent controversies surrounding Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Ivan Prove. And his decision to sit out during a warmup skate that involved wearing a gay pride themed hockey jersey. And, uh, he did so due to his religious beliefs and he got interviewed and it was, it was pretty interesting.   We'll also be discussing stephen Crowder, I'm sure you have heard of him, as well as the Daily Wire, ran by uh, Ben Shapiro. Um, basically incentivizing their creators to walk the line of big tech censorship in order to maintain their contracted. Which is obviously concerning if you're somebody who is interested in following influencers who are also interested in freedom of speech, right? I if you don't, if, if you have to be weary of speaking your actual opinion when you're one of these little single largest influencers in the space and you have to follow the guidelines of YouTube or fear getting doctor pay.  That's an issue, right? So, so we'll discuss that. We'll see. I, I have some differing opinions on the, the matter. I have some differing opinions on who was right, who was wrong. I don't think it's a clear cut answer but I will discuss where I think Stephen Crowder went wrong, where I think the Daily wire is going wrong, and talk about some of the interviews that I listened to surrounding this. Uh, Candace Owen spoke out about this. Basically, every single person from the Daily Wire spoke out about this, and Stephen Crowder has just been. Off on social media about it. So we'll talk about that. And then finally we'll be discussing the recent controversy surrounding actress Jamie Lee Curtis, and her display of a unbelievably disturbing piece of art that she posted that was in the background of a picture she posted on Instagram, which was showing a dead child inside of a suitcase hanging from the wall. In her office   it's just so, so disturbing to me how consistently this is coming up, right? How, how often we're seeing these depictions popping up in these wildly successful people's, uh, backgrounds and in their houses, and, you know, we'll talk about all of it. Welcome to Red Pill Revolution. My name is Austin Adams. Red Pill Revolution started out with me, realizing everything that I knew, everything that I believed, everything I interpreted about my life is through the lens of the information I was spoonfed as a child. Religion, politics, history, conspiracies, Hollywood medicine, money, food, all of it. Everything we know was tactfully written to influence your decisions and your view on reality by those in power. Now I'm on a mission, a mission to retrain and reeducate myself to find the true reality of what is behind that curtain. And I'm taking your ass with me. Welcome to the Revolution.   All right, to everyone's surprise, finally. Alec Baldwin is facing justice for his role in the tragic and preventable death of Helena Hutchins on the set of his movie. Rust. Prosecutors have actually announced that Baldwin will be charged with involuntary manslaughter and absolutely rightfully so. Recent findings show that Baldwin. Ammunition, live ammunition that was found on the set, mixed with fake ones, uh, with empty rounds. And then the rest of the film crew, basically they, what they found was to have a. Extremely consistent pattern of criminal disregard for safety, which resulted in the death of Hutchins. Now, Baldwin's not the only one who's actually being tried here and has been charged with these things. The armorer onset has also been charged, but we'll get to that in just a minute. The maximum punishment that Alec Baldwin can get out of this is five years. That's the maximum punish. And on, you know, obviously even if he gets the maximum punishment, he's gonna serve two years at some BS celebrity prison where he gets to have his cell phone and watch TV all day. Like it's, it's terrible to think that that is what they're going to give him is the maximum of five years. He literally shh, pointed a weapon on set without checking it, without any proper regard for the safety of firearm. And pulled the trigger, pointing it directly at this woman, which resulted in her death. That's willful negligence.  So the fact that five years is all they're talking about at this point is disgusting to me, and it only shows that if somebody else was, in this case, if there was a be like a, a, a, a bunch of buddies filming a, a. Documentary together, and as a result, one got shot and killed on set. You bet your ass if they're not Alec Baldwin, they're getting more serious charges than this. Absolutely positive. They're getting more serious charges in this. And the only reason that this is happening this way is because it's a mainstream set of a movie and it's Alec Baldwin, right?  I hope for the family of, of Helena Hutchins that, you know, he actually gets convicted of this, which will be, you know, kind of a stretch given how much money is gonna go behind his legal defense. But along with Alec Baldwin, the film's Armorer who is in charge of weapons on the side, Hannah Guterres Reid will also face two counts of involuntary manslaughter. According to New Mexico First Judicial District Attorney Mary Carmack Al. I think that's how you pronounce her name, Altaz. A L T W I E S. Okay. The first assistant director, David Halls, has also been charged with neglect, with negligent use of a deadly weapon, which is likely to lead to six months of probation. This also goes to show that basically the entire crew had some way, shape, or form involvement in this, and then there is so many steps that should have been taken to where this should have been prevented. Right. There's no reason at all that this should have. But the person who pulled the trigger has a maximum potential sentence of five years now. Baldwin's attorney Luke Nikas, has released a statement claiming that his decision distorts Helena HUD's tragic death and represents a terrible miscarriage of justice, according to them right bs. But let's be real. The only miscarriage of justice here is that Baldwin will face only five. . Right? That's the, literally the only, the only thing that's wrong about this, uh, the only thing that's wrong about the judicial system in this case is not that they're trying Alec Baldwin, it's that they're only going to give him five years when he murdered this woman, a wife, right? Somebody who has loved ones waiting at home for them every single day. And this man's going to get five years and she gets  put six feet in the. Now, Baldwin's attorney claims that Baldwin had no reason to believe that there was a live bullet in the gun, but obviously that's no excuse for not checking when you're the one actually pulling the trigger. Right? Baldwin relied on the professionals with whom he worked with, is what the, the quote says here. Um, but at the end of the day, he's the one pulling the trigger. He's the one with the weapon. He's the one who is pointing it in her direction and fir. Anybody, anybody with any sort of firearms experience or firearms training, and you bet your ass that you should go through firearms training. If you're constantly holding weapons in all of these films would've checked that weapon would've had, at the very least. At the very least, been there when it was loaded. Right. And, and, and, and the bigger question here is why was there any live ammunition on the set to. What was the purpose of that? Why would there be any reason for there to be live ammunition on the set? No reason. No reason at all that that should have been the case.  Involuntary manslaughter is a fourth degree felony and is normally punishable by up to 18 months behind bars and a $5,000 fine, but a firearm enhancement. Now that would've been terrible, obviously if you just got 18 months, but because of a firearm enhancement on the charges, it could make the crime punishable by a mandatory sentence of five years in jail. Now, mandatory is a nice thing to hear there, right? This is the least that he obviously deserves for doing. Uh, Helena Hutchins family actually came out in support of this. They said that they support them actively engaging in going after him for these charges  five years is, is a slap on the wrist. Now, if you recall, like, I don't know, it was a, on the one year anniversary of him shooting her like as if there should be any anniversary there, Alec Baldwin posted on social media and commented, like had the caption that said one year ago today with a picture of her face super. Like almost like it was like her birthday or something like one year ago. Today I married my wife. No. One year ago. Today you shot a woman and killed her in front of you. Could you imagine being on this set? Could you imagine watching this gun go off and this woman die in front of you while on a movie set? How tragic for everybody on the set to have to have witnessed that and he's sitting here posting on Instagram as if it was. Birthday party or something like one year ago today, and then said nothing about it. He got roasted, absolutely roasted  in the comments for posting that, uh, but he stuck to his guns on it. He's, he's, uh, just a weird, weird character. Weird character, I don't see how they don't convict him for this with everything that's happened here. And again, like I said, just to set an example here, just to set an example, right? Make sure that everybody involved from now on, I don't know, maybe check the ammunition before you fire it as somebody on the film crew.    The next thing we're gonna discuss here is going to. To the surprise of absolutely nobody, Greta Thornberg pretended to be arrested during a protest against the expansion of a coal mine in Germany. As many of you already know, a video of the incident surfaced recently went like crazy on social media. I know I saw all over Twitter on almost every single post where Greta went on there. You know, boasted about how she was there and how the police came. And, uh, all of these news networks came in and were like, Greta Thornberg, arrested. Greta Thornberg arrested. And then , the very first comment on every single one of the news channels was the video of her. And if you haven't seen the video, you gotta go watch. It was a video of her while these two cops were around her holding her there for pictures, like as if this was a, a, a meet and. and then there's all these pictures that go around of her being like held like she's a seven year old child by her parents playing, you know, when you would like get thrown around, like sitting there with this smug little smirk on her mouth. She knew what she was doing, so did her team. Right. She knew where they were going. It's, it's no coincidence that there was an entire media team there to capture this. At some random rally in Germany. Right? Yeah. Probably not a coincidence. Right. Let's, and, and this is the thing about Greta Thornberg. She's not some innocent little child, right? Who wants to save the world. No, she, she's a pawn. She's a pawn being used by a larger global agenda by, by mainstream news corporations, by people like the World Economic Forum elites, all of those major conglomerates out there that are using her as a face and this recently, this recent arrest is just literally just another example of her and her, you know, social media teams and, and, and videographers manipulation for their own gain. Right? Attention, attention, attention. Right. And there's probably no coincidence that it happened while the World Economic Forum meeting was actually going on. So anyways, in, in the video. Greta's participating in like what it says they call a sit-in right before being pulled away from police. But what's even crazier is the fact that later she's seen when she's being, like all these pictures came out of her being pulled by the police and then she's seen smiling and posing for, for the photographers while being held by the police officers. And then one of the police officers actually looks at her and goes, I didn't know you were famous. Can I get a selfie? Hm. Yeah, she wasn't getting arrested. She was taking another five minutes of fame to put on Twitter. Just like her, her back and forth banter with, with Andrew Tate. Right. And, and let's not forget here that the police actually came out and stated that Thornberg was not formally arrested and was just taken to a police fan and they had to take her ID and get her contact information. She was not. , right? She wasn't put in cuffs and thrown in the German jail.  Like I said, seems a little bit too convenient to me that you have how many, how many random col, like how many like rallies are there on a daily basis and how many times are there there unbelievable amounts of media coverage. Sit-in with 50 people at it right now. There was a video that went around of like these cops sprinting from one side of the other and just like mowing over some of these protestors. And then later they're taking selfies with Greta. Right? Like why? Why didn't they like tackle her like an outside linebacker like that? That's the video we wanted to see, but the video that we got was probably even better because it. Showing you a peak behind the curtain of what's actually going on here right now. Maybe the police weren't in. . Right. But there was enough, there was enough evidence here to show that, that they at least partook and were not, had, had not had any intention. And the mainstream media came out and ran with it. Right. Every tweet from every mainstream media company was talking about how she got arrested. No, she did not. She took a photo with cops, with, and, and got carried in the mud like a, like a little baby. So stupid and so. You see that and, and this is almost everything she's done, has been a publicity stunt, right? All of her speeches are written for her. All of her back and forth banter on Twitter is ran by a PR team. All of these things that she's doing is not by her own free will. She has a team behind her that is pushing her. And if you wanna know who's probably behind that team, rewind and listen to what I just talked about with the World Economic Forum and all of these political and business elites going, coming out and talking about how we should be eating bug. During the World Economic Forum meeting last week, right. It's, it's very, very evident that Greta Thornberg is playing a game and they're using the media to their advantage to. Keep this conversation going, right? They're using a literal child who, on her own Twitter page claims to be autistic. Like maybe, maybe not the, the forefront, you know, intellectual leader that we're looking for on, on the, the science behind potential changing of our global atmosphere and rising tides. like what is her, what is her actual, like, what are her credentials Did. Is she a scientist? There's literally no credentials that Greta Thornberg has to actually be in the, the position. And I say Thornberg because that's her damn name in whatever part of the, the metaverse that I come from because it was never Thunberg until the last two weeks. I promise you, I talked about this with Andrew TA thing. I know 100% it is the Bernstein Bears and it is gre. Thornberg, 100%. I am from the universe where it is. Thornberg, not Thunberg. Thunberg. How stupid. Anyways. Now we know. Right now we know 100% we see through all of the lies in the manipulation, right? This is not about saving the planet. This is about control and power. This is about raising the conversation of the World Economic Forum elites. This is about you stopping eating meat and starting to eat bugs. This is about you changing your vehicle from a vehicle that you can get gas and put it into the vehicle and drive wherever the hell you want, and changing that into an electric vehicle that they can turn off at a moment's. They don't want you driving a 1990 Jeep Wrangler. They want you driving a Tesla because they can press a button and now you have no transportation because you said something they didn't like on Twitter. This is about social credit scores, right? This is about your personal carbon footprint and obviously this publicity stunt. Was all in an effort to put her name back in the news after the injured Tate thing within a week or two. Like you think it's any coincidence that she's back in the news a week and a two later, right? Of course not. You think it's any coincidence that there happened to be a ton of journalists there waiting to take pictures and photos and videos of her Only at the right times? Besides the one angle that we got where we actually saw that it was a photo op, right? Like. Crazy. Crazy. All right. The next thing we're gonna discuss after this is going to be Jamie Lee Curtis, and her creepy, weird little art that she had on her wall.

Uh, I think you guys are gonna be, uh, pretty happy with it all. Red pill revolution.dot com or red pill revolution dot c o. Alright, now the next thing is going to be that Jamie Lee Curtis has been caught with a unbelievably disturbing piece of art on her wall depicting a dead child in a suit. Hanging from a canvas in her office in a post on Instagram that was just in the background that she obviously did not realize that she had posted until a bunch of people commented on it, screenshotted it, and then she deleted it immediately. That is right, folks. The Freaky Friday mom is a bit more freaky than we originally Anticip. The art piece in question appears to be a child contorted, like a naked child contorted who looks to be dead or sleeping stuffed inside of a suitcase. Hmm. Makes you wonder a little bit if Jamie Lee Curtis has the same interior decorator as Tony Podesta and Jeffrey Epstein, because if you go look back at some of the photos that they had, it was just as. Right Now, my question around all of this is, who the hell are these artists? How much did this woman pay for this piece of disturbing art? And why do these artists think that people wanna purchase this in the first place, especially at a high price tag to somebody like Jamie Lee Curtis or Tony Podesta or Jeffrey Epstein. All of these people worth millions of dollars. There's no coincidences here, right? No coincidences at all that all these rich and powerful people have weird, sadistic, violent, and sexual art on their walls, right? So there's a market for it, right? Who are these artists? Is what we should be really going after too, right? Is not only the celebrity that did it and purchased the art and put it on their wall and posted a picture of it on, I. But also the artist who decided to draw this and sell it to them, like, don't just go after the celebrity, go after the artist. Let's, let's absolutely find out who these artists were. Who are the artists that Tony Podesta was purchasing his, his artwork from? How about Jeffrey Epstein? How about Jamie Lee Curtis? Let's figure that out. Let's find it out. Who were the artists? That did this, and then we start going after them too. It shouldn't just be about the celebrity who purchased it. It should be about the creator of art because that's who we need to question. What makes you believe that somebody out there wants to spend $27,000 or 220,000, however the hell much money you guys spend on this stupid piece of art depicting a dead, naked child in a suitcase? And why do you think that people want to buy. . Right? That seems to be a pretty good question to me. Right? Not only are we talking about the celebrities, but we're also talking about the artists. That should be a topic of conversation and this immediately on the backs of the Balenciaga situation, right? Immediately. Right. It's like this, this, this, it, it promotes and normalizes the sexualization of children in child. Right. It, it, it raises sincere questions about like, why, why are all these people in, in positions of power promoting that? Why would they want to stare at that every day when I walk into my office at work, the last thing I want on the wall when I'm having a business meeting is a painting of a naked child dead in a suitcase. Who would want that over their desk in their.  and then who's stupid enough to post a picture of it on Instagram, , apparently Jamie Lee Curtis. Right? And, and, and I guarantee you she is a holier than thou liberal pointing at everybody but herself and their actions for, for, you know, being what's wrong with humanity, right? No surprises. If that's the case. Now, I don't know if that's a hundred percent the case, but I would not be surprised at all. And Jamie Lee Curtis has not even come out and addressed this at all. She hasn't responded to this. She hasn't talked to any news outlets, none of it. You know what she did? She silenced the comments on Instagram. That's what she did. All she did was get rid of comments. I don't even want to hear from you about my dead child sexualized artwork on the wall in a suitcase. Don't wanna hear.  right now. Now, there's an interesting correlation if you wanna dive a little bit deeper into the meaning of art, which is why most people purchase it. What does it make you feel when you look at it, right? How does it make you feel? Some art makes you feel happy. Some art makes you, you know, look deeper into yourself and, and, and, or motivated or, you know, whatever those feelings are. Sad, mad, happy, right? Whatever that is, right? That's what art's supposed to do is drive. What emotion is this driving? Right? But back to the fact that she literally just didn't say a word about it, has yet to say a word about it, and then just disables comments cuz she doesn't want to hear about you being upset that she has a naked child on her wall in a suitcase appearing dead. Right. It, it's, it, it, and here's the problem that I have with this. Absolutely nothing happened with Balenciaga. Right? There was a couple weeks of outrage. Now I hope that their brand plummets and continues to plummet. I think that there's definitely been a little bit of a movement behind looking at people who are buying Balenciaga and promoting it and, and,  understanding that this is what they do, right? This is what they're, they, a lot of their artwork that they want to call it entailed these little subtweeting of child exploitation or sa satanism or Right. Whatever it was. Right? So, so, so we, in the same way that you see Kanye just get literally ripped apart and canceled, I guarantee you nobody's doing that to Jamie Lee Curtis. I don't think she's gonna lose her. Chase sapphire. , do you? Probably not. Right. So I, it's sad to see that there's not been more of a conversation around it. Right. And, and, and some people are outraged and some people are talking about it. But if she still gets work after this, like why would anybody wanna be associated with that? right? Who, who are these artists? Why? You know, the fact that she's not even talking about it, right? Not even responding to this. She doesn't even feel the need to, to, to, to put a statement out. Right? So, moving on now, the next thing we're gonna talk about, there's been a ton of controversy surrounding the Philadelphia Flyers and their defenseman, Ivan Prove. Provera, I think I'm saying that right. All right. For those of you who don't know, Provera basically declined to go out during the warmup skates before the game where the team was being made to wear, uh, pride jerseys, like, uh, rainbow pride, gay pride jerseys. Okay. Kind of a weird thing to have your team do in the first place. Um, but the reason that he didn't do it wasn't because he hates gay people. Right? The reason he doesn't do it, he did it, didn't do it, was because he is intolerant of other people, right? He, that's not the, that's not the case. He came out and said that the reason that he didn't want to do it was because of his religious beliefs. When asked about his religious beliefs, he said that he was a Russian Orthodox Christian. Okay. And they were just like pressing him, pressing him, pressing him at this news conference and he's like, if you have any hockey questions, I'm happy to answer them, but I, I don't see the point in me continuing to answer these questions right now. Obviously you guys know this. I'm a big proponent in the First Amendment, and that obviously includes the freedom of religion, right? That's kind of a big one in the United States here, right? The National Hockey League, the United States National Hockey League. . Right? It's a fundamental right now, often overlooked in today's world and undervalued in our society, but he has every right to live in practices of religion as he sees he has every right to decline to wear a pride jersey if that's what he wants to do. Right? And he's did it so respectfully. Like he, he, he didn't come out and condemn gay people and say that he didn't agree with it or the, the trans community. He didn't do any. . All he said was, it's for my religious reasons, I don't feel like wearing it. And he was just getting torn to shreds. Right. He was getting condemned. People were calling for him to be punished and to be fined. Right. A bunch of like crazy left, uh, news organizations were condemning him saying that he should have even gotten like a million dollar fine from the flyers and, and it's, it's crazy. He has absolutely every right to make a personal decision based on. Religious beliefs, and he should not be punished for that at all. Right. It's, IM, it's important to note, right? Like I already said, he, he, he showed no ill will at all towards the gay community, towards the LGBTQ plus Element P community. All he said was he made a personal decision based on his religious beliefs, and he stated that he respects everybody. He did. He didn't come out and condemn anyone, anybody. , right? All he said was, I, it's just not my thing. I'm not gonna go out there and, and, and promote that actively. And he shouldn't have to. He's not a show pony. He's an athlete. He's not an actor. He's not a a a, a brand ambassador. He got paid millions of dollars to go play hockey, not to go pay, play political games for the Philadelphia Flyers organization. And what's funny about this is you see the reaction and where nobody wants the NHL to be. The NHL the last three to four years has gotten extremely woke, right? I grew up playing hockey since I was three years old, till I was 18. I did pretty good. I played triple A hockey, uh, in, in, you know, a very, very competitive area growing up and. You know, the, the hockey community was always generally right leaning, I would say. Um, it was generally in, in more higher income areas, which has an association there. But, but it was never, like, it was never used. The NHL was never used in the same way the NBA was being used. It was never used in the same way. The NFL even like with, with, uh, what's his name? All the football players Right. Kneeling during the national anthem. That wasn't happening in the nhl Right? They weren't playing the political games. And, and recently, you know, the, the, the NHLs Twitter is like, uh, or for a while at least I know it was like a, a pride flag in the background. Like . I saw something from the Babylon bee that says, if Ivan Pavlov said , that, that if he wanted to, If he wanted to promote gay pride, he would've played soccer It was like the greatest, the Babylon Bead does not miss, not once, almost everything they post is just unbelievable. Um, alright. Let's see what else we got here. Oh yeah, his jersey sold out completely right. His number nine Jersey sold out on, on the online NHL shop and the fanatic store. Worldwide after he, he did this, right? So it goes to show you that there are many, many people out there that share his beliefs and share the value of, you know, share in believing the value of religious freedom in the right to personal choice, right? Politics should stay outta sports. There's no reason for it. Athletes should absolutely not be punished for making personal decisions based on their political, religious, uh, ideological beliefs, philosophical beliefs, none of it, right? I'm quite proud of the community for standing up and showing that with their dollars, right? Nobody was, nobody was, you know, at least from that perspective, like maybe some media companies and stuff were calling for him to get fined, but as, as a consumer base, the, the hockey community rallied around him and obviously showed with their money that they don't care for your pride. Jerseys in warmups. You got the wrong. Guys. Right? This is not the n l this is not the nba, right? And apparently this isn't the, uh, you know, , the World Cup of Soccer. Um, anyways, and as a reminder, the Supreme Court ruled seven to two. Right when you were called back in 2018, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the baker when it came to baking a cape for a gay couple around, around their religious beliefs. Supreme Court ruled seven to two overwhelmingly in favor of the baker to express its political beliefs, even in a business context. . Right. And this isn't even for him, a business context. If I, I, I promise you it does not say that he has to wear gay pride jerseys in his warmups, in his contract with the Philadelphia Flyers Right? I, I would be very, very surprised if that was the case, right? I, I'm pretty sure that's not, not what would've ended up being in his contract. Now, the next time they signed somebody, it might be after this happened, although they'll lose out on the Jersey sales, which would probably. . They don't care about that. They care about looking woke to the companies who are buying advertisements from them. Right? And that's the bigger problem with this. They're not even concerned about their base anymore. They're not concerned about what people want to consume because I promise you, a vast majority of the NHL consumer base is not liberal. Majority of the players who grew up playing hockey, at least in the United States, are not liberal. You're not going to find an Antifa member on basically any of the NHL teams. You're not gonna find somebody with a Black Lives Matter sticker on the back of their car, like I said, on very, very few NHL players cars. Right? It's not a liberal sport per se. Not definitely not as much as the NBA or the nfl, right? They, they're trying to make it that way so they can play ball with these big corporations who want them. , right? I don't know who owns the NHL at this point, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was Disney. So anyways, I'm glad to see that that was the outcome, at least, right? I'm very happy to see that people spoke with their dollars and made this happen in this way where there was a positive outcome for him, right? I hope he got some royalties out of those jerseys. At the very least, . All right, the next thing we're gonna. Is going to be, um, Stephen Crowder and The Daily Wire. All right. In the world of conservative entertainment, uh, there has been rising tensions between two of the biggest players in the game. That is Stephen Crowder and the Daily Wire. The Daily Wire being. Owned, or at least ran, you know, the, the face of the Daily Wire is Ben Shapiro, right? You have people like Candace Owens, you have, you know, uh, Clavin, you have, uh, Brett Cooper, you have, you know, all of the mainstream, the largest influencers in the conservative space come from or are some way associated with Daily Wire. The few that aren't are like Tim Pool. And that's about it. Stephen Crowder, right? Those are like the two really, really big, huge, massive platforms that aren't in some way associated with the Daily Wire, which I think is awesome. I think it's really cool what the daily wire's trying to do with the Daily Wire plus. Coming out with movies with people like Gina Carrano, right? There's so much positivity coming out of there that I was like, really disappointed to see this come up, right? This, this, this is not a conversation I want to take a side in, right? I'm, I'm in full support of the Daily Wire. I really like Ben Shapiro's content. I love Jordan Peterson. You know, Brett Cooper's great her, her social media content and everything. Top notch. Uh, Candace Owens obviously one of the most intelligent and, and well-spoken people in the conservative space. Uh, the list goes on, right? Uh, the, the, what is the woman documentary? All of it. All of it, all of it is incredible stuff. So, and been a fan of Steven Crowded for quite some time. I love his content and his comedy, everything. So like, this is not something where I really wanna like, wear a jersey in this. Now I have opinions about all of it, and I'm gonna tell you all of them. , uh, but it hurts me to have to even, you know, choose sites here. I'm not exactly doing, but I'll tell you what I find wrong and right with both sides of the argument. And you can distinguish for yourself what you think my total overarching beliefs are. But I don't think I have a exact side that I believe in here anyways. So this week, Stephen Crowder came out and publicly accused the daily wire of designing their influencer's contracts to tow the line of big tech censorship policies, or at the very least, have to. Have their pay be docked for every single violation against them, right? So if you have a YouTube platform and you get demonetized, if you have a Facebook and you get a strike against you from YouTube or a, uh, demonetized from Facebook, or you get a violation from Instagram, every single one of those things has a like stepping percentage that you lose of your income as a result of being demonetized. Right now, I think there's. Something to be said about that, and we'll get into that in just a moment. But, we'll, let's go on. Um, in a video posted on his channel, Crowder stated that Big tech is in bed with Big con, big con being conservative, right? So talking about the Daily wire, daily wire's obviously the biggest conservative platform out there, right? So, and he went on to criticize. An offer that he received from the Daily Wire without specifically naming the company right sees the next day. The Daily Wire ceo, Jeremy Boring, posted a response video in which he confirmed that the company had initially offered Crowder a whopping $50 million contract, but also claimed that Crowder was misrepresent, had misrepresented what was in the. Right. Boring. Also denied that Daily Wire was working with big tech companies to censor conservative voices and stated that the company has also been a victim of big tax alleged censorship, obviously with all the people that you're talking about here. Right. So, um, he read the contract verbatim, right? That, uh, boring is is the, uh, ex or president or vice president of the Daily Wire, right? He, he was, um, and, and this is the, like one of the bigger problems here is that Crowder is like friends with these people and. Came out in this big like gotcha moment and re released a recording that he had a conversation with. Boring and boring. Said something about, it sounded to me like the discussion went like this. Like they were talking about how Crowder had a problem with the clause in the contract. And it wasn't a contract, it was a term sheet. And the difference between the term sheet and the contract is that one's binding and to be signed, the term sheet is to start the negotiations, right? So in the term sheet that they originally gave to Crowder, which generally ends. Causing negotiations, not, you know, recorded phone calls in released social media stuff. Uh, the term sheet said, you know what, those stepping down demonetization percentages were for his pay of that 50 million if he got demonetized on any of those platforms or strikes or whatever. Right. , and that's the problem with this, is that those strikes mean that you have to watch what you say. Right now there is a part of the Daily Wire, the Daily Wire Plus that's coming out where you can kind of negate that issue, right? The, the hope is that they replace YouTube with the Daily Wire Plus, I would assume, right? And in that case, hopefully they wouldn't have to, to watch their mouths and their opinions. But at the very least what happens is the Daily Wire takes on these smaller. Influencers and brings them up through their platform, right? That's the idea at least. So they take these contracts, they give them to the person, they pay them a salary, and then they take ownership of all of their content, right? All of the videos, all the podcasts, uh, per, you know, cost and advertisements and space, and they give you a salary, let you grow your brand, and then, you know, eventually your contract needs to be renewed. And hopefully you can, you know, renew it at a really, Millions of dollar contract like they were offering Crowder to begin with. And so where Crowder had a problem with that is he felt like if they're doing the same thing to up and coming influencers, right?  Saying that, you know, what about that young person that they're gonna be hiring to bring up through the ranks And you know, if they're gonna be, you know, have to watch everything they say and, and or fear of getting their percentages paid because people were like kind of pissed that he was even upset when they're offering him 50 million over four. Crowder went back and asked for 140 million in a pretty  interesting way of negotiation. Tried to get them to immediately triple the amount that they were offering him. Um, but anyway, so that was the term sheet. That was what he had a problem with. And then he came out and said, you know, in, released a recording, right, Crowder. Basically said that, uh, the, the feud started with these two figures when the large scared divisions, right? The, while Crowder accuses them of betraying conservative principles, right? The, the, the principle of freedom of speech, of not holding back what you're thinking and, and, and not having to give into big tech censorship right now. despite the tensions of the disagreement, right? I think the biggest thing here needs to be the freedom of speech aspect, right? We, we need to maintain on the right side, at least to the anti left side of things, the anti woke liberal ideology, that freedom of speech above. All right? So I get Crowder's point in that. I get why he came out and had a problem with this, but I don't get his approach in the way. He recorded a phone call with a friend and then released this gotcha clip. What the clip said. Stephen Crowder recorded the clip, and in the clip you see them kind of discussing the, the thing that I just talked about, which is the docking of pay based on percentages and, and if you get a violation from social media platforms and Crowder released a clip of him talking about, of boring talking. How they go about that salary way and say, you know, that's how we do it. We bring them on and they're wage slaves and they can grow their brand and build a following and then go off and, and be famous basically. Right? That's what we do. We bring them on, give 'em a salary if we think that they can make great content, and then we let them flourish later. Uh, you know, we, we allow them to, to build a platform while making.  at the same time instead of out here bootstrapping it like you, boy, trying to make it happen without anybody. So, Crowder released the clip of him saying wage slaves. He like slowed it down a bunch of times, wage slaves, word slaves, and, and, and it was, it was supposed to be this big Got you moment. Now I understand what he means by wage slave. Wage slave is not like this ridiculously insulting term. It just means that you are slave to the wages that you're making in order to make your bills. Right. I understand that concept. It's not this like crazy, you know? Idea that like Crowder was trying to play to his base and make it seem like boring was insulting all of these influencers on, on these types of salary contracts. I don't really see much wrong with what he said in the recording. I don't at all. I don't see any reason that it should have been this big gotcha moment. I don't see any reason that Crowder should have thought this was gonna like drive a ton of interest in, in his debate with these people. Right. So I, I don't agree with it. It seems wrong to me that Crowder and to begin with was recording a phone call with somebody he considered a friend, you know, boring. Came out and said in the tweet like, I, if I recorded it, I would've released the part where we talked about his kids and buying and how Christmas went and buying diapers for his nephew or son or something like that. Right? He's, he's basically saying like, man, , uh, I feel stupid because he was recording my phone calls all along, right? And these negotiations had happened like months ago. It wasn't like this was a super recent thing. And what Tim Poole found out live while on an episode with Candace Owens discussing this, was that from one of his audience members commenting was that. The big, you know, say like what the, whatever the URL that he had, like say no to Big Con or something like that.com that he registered, was registered 12 days before the negotiations like fell through or so before something happened that caused him to make this move. So what that led to everybody to believe is that this was calculated, right? That was like Candace Owen's position was that, you know, he's only doing this to make money. She called him a bad person. She said that, you know, he, he burned all these bridges with all these people and, and now he's like off on an island on his own. And now he's trying to build a following on his own platform because everybody said no to him at the amount of money that he was asking for the 140 million over four years or whatever. So understandable. That seems frustrating to me. That seems like kind of shady, that you would record a conversation with somebody you considered a friend if that's what happened, and then kind of weird for him to play this like gotcha clip that kind of really didn't have much to do with the actual, uh, negotiations that he had problems with. It seemed to me like he would've been better off coming out and actually having a discussion about how bad the contract clause. The cause of the right or libertarian movements that are happening right now. Because if I have to fear YouTube's strikes for my family to be fed, then I have to watch what I'm saying. every single time I speak on, on the microphone. Right? And that changes the way that if, if it's a, if you're making a hundred thousand dollars a year or $200,000 a year or whatever, Brett Cooper, or somebody who's newer like that is making a few hundred thousand dollars, I would assume that that money is important to you. If you're gonna get docked 20% of your pay, that's gonna significantly impact you. Or two, you could get down to like only 20% of your pay if you get demonetized on several. So if you're making like $200,000, $400,000 a year and you get docked 80% of that, then you're making what, like 40 grand like. Would be atrocious. Right. $80,000 a year for the type of work that they're doing and the breach that they have. Like that's crazy. And so I get that right. It makes sense that there would be, you know, some type of push towards trying to have these contracts not include something about YouTube censorship or Instagram violations or anything like that. I also get that the Daily Wire is a business who is expecting the monetization of their shows to pay for the salary of the person who they're paying to own their content of, right? So it is definitely an incentive to self-censor on one side of it. And the second side of it is, From a business perspective, it's only, it's kind of like a necessary evil in today's world, at least until the Daily Wire Plus gets to where it needs to be, to where it's generating enough revenue to pay for influencers to come in and build an audience specifically on their platform, and not the ones like YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, all of that, right? So I see both sides. . I don't know who's in the right and who's in the wrong. I do know that I don't necessarily agree with the way that Stephen Crowder came out and did this like gotcha moment recording. I don't think that that was really the right move, especially if you're, if he was a friend. Right. And, and, and I also kind of disagree with the way that he burned all these bridges in hopes of building. His own platform because the whole movement that ever that is going on here, freedom of speech, freedom of choice, freedom of religion, right? The, the political movement that we're hoping for is the anti woke, anti-censorship movement, right? And, and so on one side of it, again, I get why this would be frustrating for somebody to negotiating a contract, trying to make this movement move along and be better, right? But I also get the business perspective of the daily wire. I don't know. I'd be interested to see what you guys think, you know, comment, whatever on the videos here. You know, comment on YouTube. Uh, speaking of YouTube, go join the YouTube. If you're not on the YouTube, I post the video episodes every single week. Right. You can go to my Link Tree, any of the social medias, you can go to the sub. It will all be linked on their red pill revolution.dot com or red pill revolution.co. I will be updating the website here over the next week or two and we'll be starting to put out articles and blog posts and news articles that we're, uh, I'm going to be writing up for you guys and distributing them through the subs deck as well. So make sure you sign up. All right. Now, as far as this situation goes, I don't think this is good for the free speech movement, although Brett Cooper did come out and say, That, you know, Brett Cooper's, I think 22, 21, 22, um, phenomenal. Really like her content. She does a great, great job at, uh, obviously, like she's, she's very, very sharp. Um, her content on social media is, is very well done. Her lives, everything. She does a really good job at it. You know, all almo, all of the influencers at the Daily Wire are, are like top notch. And so that's why I don't think that this is, this is. right? This overall like tension. Now this is probably the most drama we've had in the Conservative party, at least since like Trump was in office. So  it is, it is, uh, an interesting time to be, you know, not on the left side of things. Uh, but Brett Cooper came out and said that this was not in her contract because o one thing that came to Owen said is that she had a problem with the fact. Steven Crowder specifically talked about young and upcoming influencers, and there's only one , young and upcoming influencer. And that's Brett Cooper, right? She's 22, 21, 22 years old. Um, maybe 23, I don't know. But right around there. And she's, you know, had she said, which is crazy to me that she had like 7,000 followers last year at this time. And now she has millions, which like, you know, daily. Call you, boy. I'll jump on there. Take Steven crowd's place. , and, uh, yeah, I'll, I'll, if you wanna pay me, uh, 50 million, I'll be happy to, to, to, I won't even talk about anything that you don't want me to talk about. I won't even bring it up. I won't. I'll, I'll try not to blink. I'll, uh, I, I'll, I'll, I'll do whatever you want. Just, just for 50 million. That's fine. I guess I'll do it. So Daley Wire, call your boy. I'm happy to take the 50 million contract and I'll censor myself some from literally saying anything you want me to, I'm happy to do it. Happy to do it. Call me up, you know, Austin Red pill revolution.co. Send me an email. Uh, anyways, but seriously, uh, Brett Cooper said that this was not in her. She said that, you know, and that was something Candace Owens kind of took issue with, was that he was specifically kind of alluding to her contract and, and she came out in a live video yesterday and said, that's not in my contract. I sounds like she negotiated out of it actually. Uh, which it also seems like Crowder could have actually negotiated his way out of it like many of these other people did. Um, but chose to, I don't know, do what he did instead. , but it doesn't seem like all of the people on the Daily Wire actually have that sort of clause in there. So is it in all of the new ones? Maybe. I don't know. I don't know. But it, it is definitely not a good look if we're trying to promote freedom of speech, if you're having to have your influencer self censor. Right? Uh, but for 50 million, eh, maybe  anyways, that. Is what I got for you guys. Thank you so much for listening. Go ahead over to red pill revolution.dot com. I will actually be posting articles about each one of these topics this week. Um, I'll be sending them out in the ck I will be, uh, sending out the, the podcast companion. Over the next day or two. Uh, look out for it. I'm gonna be cutting the clips. Doing, uh, this will be coming up the next day. So brad pill revolution.dot com. That is my big ask. If you are listening to the podcast, go over and subscribe to the YouTube or the Rumble channel, or both, even better. Uh, you can do so at the Link Tree, uh, link tree.com/the Austin Jadas. Um, you can find me on, I. At Rad Pill Revolt, uh, or at the Austin J. Adams, um, Twitter, the Austin J. Adams and Truth social TikTok got taken away, but I'm starting to build another one. Uh, we'll see how it goes. But anyways, thank you guys so much for listening from the bottom of my heart. I hope you have a wonderful day and welcome to the Revolution. Thank you.
