We have this tradition every night, what he
would call a final final. So we'd have dinner
and then we'd go somewhere and have like the
final drink. Everybody should have a beer or
three. It's gonna be pretty, it's gonna be pretty
lit. I might have some special apparel. We
are, we're gonna throw down. There's gonna be
bourbon. There's gonna be sparklers. We ended
[00:00:16]
up in Northern Italy and we were slamming the
gronies at our like last night. And I was like,
I need a subpoena. I went to Devin and I told
him that in the morning. He goes, dude, if
you're gonna start drinking at night, get out
of my office. Can I be the first one to say
that if I ever go before a Senate confirmation,
they're gonna call me an alcoholic? He actually
[00:00:36]
ended up being right about one thing. ah The
issue is that they're still calling him an
alcoholic because he's an alcoholic. And there's
a lot of problems that can come from that when
you're given a position of power and authority.
And you have this addiction problem combined
with an addiction to desperately wanting to
be cool. And so in pursuit of that, you maybe
[00:00:55]
make some bad choices. And here's the latest
one. Cash Patel is starting up effectively
an American gladiator-esque competition for
the FBI. They're launching a brand new competition
designed to crown the fittest male. And they'll
even allow some females to among FBI agents
[00:01:15]
across the country. Because Cash Patel, like
Pete Hegseth, is absolutely obsessed with how
jacked and ripped the men working around him
are for some reason. This is apparently going
to happen across the summer. All 56 field offices
across the nation are being actively encouraged
[00:01:31]
to put forward their absolute best. Each office
will nominate one male. and one female agent
to represent them on the national stage, which
I believe is the basic premise of the Hunger
Games. And I guess if you want to win, you should
probably act as if we're doing the Hunger Games
because you're going to need to be vascular
to impress these people. Anyway, there's going
[00:01:50]
to be some sort of preliminary round to determine
who the top agents are. So before you can get
sent to the American Gladiator thing, you have
to prove your worth at home by surviving a
punishing mix of physical and mental drills
in their local offices. nothing too strenuous.
[00:02:06]
They're not gonna make you remember person,
woman, camera, man, TV or anything like that.
You're not gonna have to identify the lion or
the elephant, only Donald Trump can do that.
But yeah, they're gonna do this competition
to determine who's the best of the best for
[00:02:21]
some reason and whatever that means, Keith.
This is a serious thing that the FBI is going
to be doing. We have given up on the FBI investigating
real crimes, white supremacist, like militias,
those sorts of things are not gonna be investigated
anymore. We need to protect the ideological
[00:02:38]
allies of the president. And instead, it's Cash
Patel going to hockey games. And it's the FBI
agents being forced to compete for the pleasure
of the ruling class. I don't like our country.
What do you think is going on? I mean, I just
think about Savannah Guthrie's mom. That's
[00:02:57]
devastating. That is devastating. How do think
she feels? we're going to put on a competition,
but you can't even like find her mom. So I don't
know, man. It's like, it's just deeply embarrassing.
[00:03:14]
And it's obviously, it's obviously whatever's
happening at the FBI is making us less safe
and is emboldening bad guys because they feel
like they're going to be able to get away with
it because they are. It's insane. I did not.
That's insane. It's frankly embarrassing.
[00:03:33]
It's just embarrassing. It's just so sad that
the only figure and passion I see in our federal
law enforcement is to go after Comey, Tish
James, that sort of thing. They don't even,
they barely-. Hassan Piker. Hassan Piker, yeah,
gonna be subpoenaed now, that's a great point.
[00:03:52]
ah Even when Charlie Kirk gets killed, it's
like a slapdash nothing investigation for some
reason. They don't seem to care or take seriously
any of this stuff. Our country is awash in
corruption like we've never seen before. People
are trying, by the way, people are trying to
[00:04:11]
take out the president routinely now. Every
weekend there's a new shooting. But instead,
they're going to be taking those big padded
mouths and try to hit each other off of things
into a ball pit. This is how pathetic and childish
our country has become because we are ruled
[00:04:27]
by drunk children. like Kash Patel and Pete
Hexa.
