This episode of Louder with Crowder explores the growing influence of Islam and socialism in American politics, focusing specifically on recent election outcomes in New York. Steven Crowder and his panel blend their trademark irreverence and satire with pointed political commentary. The main topics include the apparent rise of Muslim and openly Marxist politicians in the U.S., major generational and societal challenges facing young men, cultural comparisons between America and Europe, and the ongoing ideological battle lines within the Democratic Party.

Throughout, Crowder maintains an alarmist tone, warning listeners of ideological threats to American freedoms—and using plenty of dark humor along the way.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Current Political Climate & Islam/Socialism’s Rise in NY

• Crowder frames the main topic: “You woke up and said Muslims because they’re winning elections and communists in New York City. We’re gonna get to how many seats are now being taken up by radical Islamists, Marxists, Communists, socialists.” (00:20)
• Historical argument: Crowder insists this blend of Marxism and sympathy for radical Islam isn’t new—claiming it’s “always been a huge part of the Democrat party.”
• Link to Marxism: The show argues that Islam and socialism “make good bedfellows” because both allegedly view politics through an oppressor/oppressed lens.
• Alarmist perspective: “Europe has fallen. And there aren’t enough people there who are willing to stand up for it. Sorry. Change my mind... it is bad, it is bleak for Europe, and we need to avoid that here in the United States. We need to stop it at the little seeds of Marxism.” (34:00)

2. Housing Legislation & Political Maneuvering

• Crowder discusses the “Road to Housing Act,” initially reporting it as a breakthrough bipartisan bill to address housing affordability, only for news to break that “President Trump is canceling it.”
• He frames this as a political move to hold out for the SAVE Act (voter integrity), suggesting the housing bill’s fate is now a tool for leverage.
• The co-hosts debate whether it’s smart for Trump to withhold the bill for political bargaining or if that just weakens his position.

  “Do you think it’s a good idea to kind of hold this as leverage? Or would you rather see the housing bill get through?” (05:36)

3. Cultural Commentary: America vs. Europe

• The panel lampoons European living standards, focusing on the lack of air conditioning and consumer comforts as evidence of America’s superiority.

  “Most people in Europe, Europe don’t have AC at all... You go outside of the major city, people live closer to comparatively those in the third world than you do in modern America.” (23:43)

• They highlight a French heat wave and contrast heat-related deaths in Europe (15,000/yr) with those in the U.S. (702/yr), attributing the difference to American air conditioning and innovation. (27:46)
• Jokes about European migrants and immigrants, making dark humor references to Islamic cultural norms.

4. Masculinity, Identity & Young Men’s Crisis

• Crowder and crew analyze the struggles of retired athletes (notably Dustin Poirier’s recent airport incident) as reflective of a broader identity crisis among young men.
• They draw parallels between the loss of career/mission for veterans and athletes and the modern trend of directionless young men, arguing men are “task-oriented” and flounder without clear purpose or achievement.
• Faith (specifically Christianity) is recommended as a foundation for male identity.

  “That’s why we tell people like, you need to base your identity on something that doesn’t change... that’s faith, that’s God, that’s Christ.” (18:07)

5. Islamic and Socialist Representation in American Politics

• Hamtramck, MI Example: Once 90% Polish, now reportedly 70% Muslim; the panel mocks the city council’s contentious and at-times chaotic meetings.
• Focus on New York Elections:
  • Avela Chevalier (District 13): Converted to Islam for “social justice” reasons; panel calls her anti-American and racist.
    • Quote: "I forgot to get napkins, so I just wiped my hand on the American flag behind me." (40:04)
  • Aber Kawas (State Senate District 12): Accused 9/11 of being a product of U.S. “capitalism and white supremacy.”
    • Quote: “...the idea that we have to apologize for like a terror attack that like a couple people did, and then there is no apologies or reparations for genocides and for slavery, etc, is something that I kind of find, like, reprehensible.” (41:35)
  • Panel highlights CAIR’s role as a political force, referencing a 1991 Muslim Brotherhood document outlining goals to destabilize Western society from within.
    • Quote: "...their work in America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within..." (48:06)

6. Communism, Socialism, and the Democratic Party

• Crowder claims the recent primary wins by openly socialist/Marxist candidates in NY is a continuation (not a departure) from the Democratic Party’s legacy.
• He argues the flaw in socialism/communism is that instead of dispersing greed, it “centralizes” it in government.

  “If greed will always be among us, why do we act as though it’s only a flaw in capitalism? And where does greed, where does corruption go under communism? It gets legal precedent.” (53:34)

• He lists figures historically linked to socialism or Marxism, both politicians and celebrities, claiming the American left has always been sympathetic to Marxist causes.

7. Dark Humor & Provocative Satire

• Throughout the episode, the show leans heavily on edgy jokes regarding Islam, socialism, and left-liberal politics.
• Notable bits: mock fast food slogans for Islamic rule (“Pizza Pizza” changed to “Kill the Jews” at Little Caesars), repeated references to cousin marriage/incest in Muslim-majority countries, and an extended parody about Holocaust films (“Schindler’s Lisp”).
• The panel pokes fun at recent viral figures in the political-social media left (e.g., Hasan Piker) as symbols of the new establishment left.

Conclusion

This episode offers a deeply critical—some would say conspiratorial and provocative—look at the interplay between Islam, socialism, and the American left, focusing on electoral wins in New York as a symbol of larger cultural and political threats. Crowder and his panel use a rapid-fire mix of opinionated analysis, historical argument, and dark humor to warn about the direction of both Europe and the U.S., using real and parody examples to reinforce their points.

The tone is irreverent and alarmist, often pushing boundaries of satire while contextualizing today’s political changes as part of a long-standing Marxist trend. Whether or not the audience agrees with the analysis, the episode provides a detailed (and unabashedly partisan) perspective on current cultural and political issues.

Transcript

[Steven Crowder]

Welcome to the lineup. Live on Rumble. I'm surrounded by children.

[Josh Firestein]

Confirmed.

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah, we have a lot to get through today. And of course rumble owns live. YouTube is kind of dead with live. Rumble did it figuratively. Figuratively, as it were. I don't understand that expression. As it were. What do you mean as it were?

[Josh Firestein]

It is as it is.

[Steven Crowder]

It be lot to get to today. You woke up and said Muslims because they're winning elections and communists in New York City. We're gonna get to how many seats are now being taken up by radical Islamists, Marxists, Communists, socialists. And I'm not just saying this. These are people who are self avowed socialists. They sympathize with Marxism. They have been very, very clear. And I'm gonna tell you something, this is not new. People saying, oh, the moderate left, boy, they're taking a hard turn. I'm gonna make the case for you. Historically, this has always been a huge part of the Democrat party. It Marxism. That's why Islam and socialists make good bedfellows. Also, the road to Housing Act. I want to make sure I'm getting the name right. Overwhelmingly pass is going to go to the house and is a huge overhaul that may make housing more affordable than ever in your lifetime. You talked about it. We laid out a plan and it turns out those in government have listened. It's almost a one to one policy prescription. In line with what we wanted to see. That and we're also Europeans don't have ac. That's fun. On with the show.

[Narrator/Commentator]

And episode 284 is underway. A hard fought number with countless lawsuits and cease and desist. Just no wonder Crowder is still on his feet. Here's the Fred Rogers estate, the Fred Rogers Company. Mr. Rogers, of course, angry about Crowder's parody, looking to try his hand. Oh boy, the brutality is just unbearable. And oh, here is the Bob Ross estate, apparently angry with Crowder's painting. Muhammadan menstruation is now having a go. Oh, and this is just brutal. He's using every illegal tactic in the book. Bogus copyright claims, bogging down the channel. Fair use be damned. I tell you, it's a tragedy if the lawyers allow this to go on any longer. Oh, no, it appears to be Mr. YouTube himself. Chink Weger of the Young Turks, well known to work directly with YouTube, is looking to take his turn. Oh, and now YouTube's trapping Crowder with big body shots. How? He's still up as anyone can. No channel can endure this kind of punishment. The latter with Strata. Channel has somehow managed to stay afloat. This is a tragedy, but a testament to the fact that Mud Club has allowed him the will to continue on with a champion's heart. But I tell you, they may not be.

[Steven Crowder]

Hey, hey, YouTube, you never got me down? You never got me down. YouTube, you never got me down.

[Narrator/Commentator]

You never got me down. YouTube.

Right away, we have to lead this off with an admonish. I. I missed. I meant to say it's going to the White House and then I just found out, breaking right now, the road to Housing Act. President Trump is canceling it. The sign there. Yeah, the signing.

[Josh Firestein]

Unless.

[Steven Crowder]

Unless the SAVE Act.

[Guest 1]

There you go.

[Steven Crowder]

It seems I kind of understand it because that's probably the most pivotal issue of our time right now, election integrity. And it certainly highlights how ineffective and frankly, it really highlights the rhinos and Republican Party. This is something that should be done. And the leadership is awful. I mean, no one dislikes Thune more than yours truly. So I understand the leverage. But this would still be really good for America. So I think you sign it.

[Josh Firestein]

I think you sign it. I don't know if he's. And we'll get into it later on, but I don't know if he's trying to like, just get it back in the public eye for a minute or something like that and then sign it. I have no idea. It set up well for me.

[Steven Crowder]

I think he feels like he's out of cards to play as far as the SAVE Act.

[Josh Firestein]

This is going to make him look weaker if he goes, no, I'm not going to do it. And then two days later he's like, I guess I'll do it. Yeah, I don't know how you win that.

[Steven Crowder]

You let me know what you think. Do you think it's a good idea to kind of hold this as leverage? Or would you rather see the housing bill get through? Because there's a lot of good in there. There's a lot of good in there. Other question is, what American innovation, things that you take for granted, you know, like AC refrigeration, do you think Europeans need most? We could start like a European children's fund.

[Josh Firestein]

Borders.

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah, exactly. That guy who's like, ah, for just the price of a cup of coffee a day and there's like a kid starving next to him like you have a whole film crew in the arms of an angel. Get him away from craft services. Tr Nick Deal has a great bit about that. Going back to the 90s. He's always been that guy. Captain Morgan, CEO. How are you, Phantom?

[Josh Firestein]

I was better before the whole Trump thing.

[Steven Crowder]

You didn't just finish your word. You cut off and you.

[Josh Firestein]

Fantastic. I'm like, that's a lie.

[Steven Crowder]

And then I started. Then I started thinking of that awful film, the Phantom with Billy Zayn. Oh, it's horrible. It's really bad.

[Josh Firestein]

Really is bad. I was a big Billy Zayn fan until then.

[Steven Crowder]

Really? No, that's what lost you. What did you. How are. You were a fan of his male modeling one. Yeah, that was his primary. He was in Titanic.

[Josh Firestein]

He was the only reasonable person on the boat.

[Guest 1]

That's a.

[Guest 2]

Like that.

[Steven Crowder]

Well, not like that old whore who.

[Josh Firestein]

Yeah.

[Steven Crowder]

At the end of her life when she could be thinking about her husband, her children, her family. She's thinking of some one night stand and throwing a $20 jewel into the ocean. She still has family and she could

[Guest 1]

have made room on that. Effing.

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah, she could have. She could have.

[Josh Firestein]

Scientific experiments.

[Guest 1]

Yeah. I went through like three swears that just. Just didn't escape.

[Steven Crowder]

She didn't. You and Gerald. I think we're all there this morning. She didn't even check a pulse. No, she's just like. She'd have to bring him home. Yeah, exactly.

[Guest 1]

Right. You don't want to never let go.

[Steven Crowder]

Let's be honest. In real life, we're like, this was fun, but I want the money. That's what I want. And today, tonight at the Addison Improv in Dallas, Texas, Addison, technically, Josh Firestein. Not underscore Firestein on X. Go see him support live comedy. It's still one of those few arts where it. You know what? It's managed to maintain what it's meant to be. Of course, clipping online has changed a

[Guest 2]

little bit, but I'll be doing it. I got. I got a new camera this weekend. I got a new camera. So I'm recording.

[Steven Crowder]

No, don't tell people that. Tell them that they won't see it.

[Guest 2]

No, I want them to. I want them to think that they're going to get a really good. Really good heckle in and. And they won't. No, but I want them to think that so that they'll buy tickets and. And pay me to come see my show where they have air conditioning, by the way.

[Steven Crowder]

They do have air conditioning.

[Guest 2]

They put ice in the drinks there and, you know, they have tables, free refills can sit at. Yeah, it's great.

[Steven Crowder]

That's no joke.

[Josh Firestein]

We.

[Steven Crowder]

We used to come to the States. Canadians. You guys sound off here. We used to go to the States and just go to any type of, you know, mediocre franchise, Olive Garden, Applebees, chilies, and just bask in the idea of free refills.

[Josh Firestein]

And also free bread. If it was a Olive Garden. And it was the only redeeming quality.

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah, it really was. It was aggressive.

[Josh Firestein]

Everything else is really bad. And the bread is just, you know, pretty good.

[Steven Crowder]

Was that. Except Jesus, his last miracle was the never ending pasta bowl.

[Guest 3]

Was it?

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah. He was like, do you feel full, Bow? Like, Jesus, we can't eat any more of the.

[Guest 2]

Well, that's why the Romans killed him. They're like, we need the recipe to this pasta bowl.

[Josh Firestein]

Yeah.

[Steven Crowder]

No, they killed him like, well, yeah. Your bologna parm.

[Guest 2]

Gross. You know what? That's a good reason.

[Guest 1]

Manicotti for heaven.

[Guest 4]

Yeah.

[Josh Firestein]

Nice.

[Narrator/Commentator]

Yeah.

[Steven Crowder]

No one wanted your pepperoni lasagna. All right, before we get to anything else, this is making the rounds. You know that I've had many of these fighters from the UFC on this show, including another boy from Lafayette, I believe, Daniel Cormier. Dustin Poirier, he's retired. He was an interim UFC lightweight champion, and he got into it at the airport. It's. It's not his best moment. I will say, I don't think this is unforgivable. I don't think this is something that he can't get past. And I think with a little more context, understanding his history, this is one of those where you go, okay, could this warrant from us some understanding? And is this someone who maybe needs a little bit of help? Here's the arrest and watch the cop get so scared immediately.

[Narrator/Commentator]

Boom. Boom. Let's go, big dog. Let's go, big dog.

[Dustin Poirier]

What's going on?

[Steven Crowder]

What's up, Bunch of hoes.

[Guest 1]

Let's go.

[Steven Crowder]

Relax, relax. Yeah, Pull me off the plane.

[Dustin Poirier]

All my boys went to the crib. Now, what the.

[Steven Crowder]

And this is why you gotta.

[Dustin Poirier]

You.

[Guest 4]

You.

[Dustin Poirier]

And her.

[Steven Crowder]

And her. I'll fight you right now. No, I don't want to fight, bro. I'll go with you right now. I don't want to fight.

[Guest 1]

Let's go.

[Guest 5]

I don't want to fight.

[Guest 4]

Let's go.

[Steven Crowder]

Here comes the radio.

[Guest 2]

Yeah, tell him.

[Josh Firestein]

Tell him all of them.

[Guest 4]

Here it comes.

[Steven Crowder]

It's gonna be bad. No, bro, bro, bro. By the way, he said that. So it just rolled off the tongue, you know, he says it all. Says anything. Whatever you think you need, send more. Relax, relax, Relax, bro.

[Dustin Poirier]

Relax.

[Steven Crowder]

Relax, bro.

[Guest 5]

Relax.

[Steven Crowder]

I'm going bang you up, bro.

[Guest 6]

Relax.

[Steven Crowder]

Just relax.

[Josh Firestein]

Give me a good one.

[Steven Crowder]

He's obviously enhanced on substances right now as a UFC fighter, you know,

[Narrator/Commentator]

lion

[Steven Crowder]

holes, man, You can see. See how they hesitate. It's like, arrest me. Like, I don't want to. I'm not sure that's the best way, dog.

[Guest 4]

Best way.

[Narrator/Commentator]

Pound it.

[Dustin Poirier]

Pound it.

[Steven Crowder]

All right, man. You did a great job.

[Guest 2]

You did What?

[Guest 6]

You good?

[Dustin Poirier]

Yes.

[Steven Crowder]

Sorry about dropping the inbound for no valid reason and calling him a bunch of hoes. You know how it is when you drink. No, but.

[Josh Firestein]

No, but they are still hoes. Okay. I'm just sorry for you.

[Guest 2]

Yeah.

[Steven Crowder]

The incident, by the way, gave Dana White an idea for a new event, a terminal fight. But it's not exactly what you think. Ah, it's just.

[Guest 2]

I'd never be mad about a delayed flight again.

[Narrator/Commentator]

No.

[Josh Firestein]

Hell, yeah. Way to go.

[Steven Crowder]

I will say this. We live in an era where people make mistakes, and they. Folks want to define them by that. This is bad. He obviously was drunk. I think there's probably more than just alcohol involved in this, but we kind of see the redemptive arc in that incident. I mean, at one point, you see him just, all right, arrest me. He doesn't resist arrest. I think he was being genuine. He says, you did what you could.

[News Reporter]

I think he.

[Steven Crowder]

He's drunk, the processing is slower. He feels bad, and he realizes, you know what? I deserve this. Just go ahead and arrest me. This is not someone who. This is not someone who's absolving himself of his misdeeds there. I don't think this is something he can't come back from. People going, oh, my gosh, this is horrible. What a fake nice guy. People also say, oh, you know what? Drunken words are sober thoughts. Okay, so what are you saying? That when he's sober, he wants to fight?

[Narrator/Commentator]

Surprise.

[Steven Crowder]

Like, he's a fighter.

[Guest 2]

When he's sober, he doesn't want to get kicked off flight.

[Josh Firestein]

Yeah. With all his friends going somewhere, I don't know where he's going.

[Guest 2]

But although he might sober, he might still think that those ladies are hoes.

[Narrator/Commentator]

Yeah.

[Steven Crowder]

I mean, I'm sober, and I'd wager.

[Josh Firestein]

Who knows?

[Steven Crowder]

So he issued a statement, and he said, I'm at the point where I need some help.

[Josh Firestein]

Yes.

[Steven Crowder]

Walking away from fighting hasn't been easy on me, and alcohol isn't the answer. It's ruined my father's life, and I will not allow it to ruin mine. My family deserved me at 100%. I'm trying to do everything I can to get my mind right and take the right next steps. I know a lot of people right now will say that's just an excuse.

[Josh Firestein]

No, it's not.

[Steven Crowder]

If you actually have watched his interviews, he retired pretty recently. And you know the guy who just won the title at the UFC White House event? Justin Gaethje. Him and Dustin Poirier fought, I believe, twice. I believe they're one on one. And Poirier was actually doing pretty well in that last fight until he got caught. So this probably sent him over the edge where he's like, ah, I retired. And look, I could beat any of these guys in any given night. We know this with athletes with high functioning individuals. A lot of them struggle. We think about cte, they struggle going back to real life. And you know what? Dustin Poirier has been pretty clear about this. And I think it parallels a lot of young men who don't have goals and feel directionless. If you watch this, you go, okay, we could have seen this coming.

[Dustin Poirier]

I got to be busy, man. That's my thing. Like, I got to be busy. If I'm not getting ready to fight somebody, and I've said this a thousand times, I have to have some kind of obstacle, you know, to. In front of me. So if I'm trying to do movies or grow my businesses, I just need to be in action, you know?

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Guest 3]

That's how you feel.

[Dustin Poirier]

Have to.

[Guest 1]

Yeah.

[Steven Crowder]

You just know if you get complacent or if you.

[Narrator/Commentator]

Why?

[Guest 2]

What?

[Dustin Poirier]

I'm like, it's honestly, bro, I'm a danger to myself when I'm have nothing, no, no goal circle on my calendar. I'm a danger to myself, man.

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah, yeah.

[Dustin Poirier]

I beat myself up mentally, dude. I kind of got, like, for a week or so, I wouldn't say depressed, but I kind of got into, like, a funk. Like, what the hell am I going to do with my life? Every day I would wake up for the last 20 years, how can I be better fighter? How can I. What's new in fitness? How can I push myself? I want to be the champion. And then, boom, you lay the gloves down and you wake up and you're a fucking civilian. Like, right. It feels crazy, you know, it's like I'm relearning who I am. Like, I always knew fighting was just something I did. It wasn't who I was. But after 20 years of doing it, even though you know that and you think that like it. I don't know who I am without fighting. How long did it take? I'm a father, I'm a husband, I'm a lot of things, but like, fighting was a cloud in my mind that never went away for 20 years.

[Guest 5]

Right.

[Dustin Poirier]

And now I wake up and it's. It's gone. Like what, what do I do? I'm still trying to find out. Joe. I don't know.

[Guest 4]

Yeah.

[Steven Crowder]

I'm certainly not making excuses for what he did, but. Did he hurt anybody? No. Would he have? I don't know. Does it seem like he regretted it in the moment? Yes. Do I believe him when he says that he feels directionless, purposeless?

[Narrator/Commentator]

Yeah. Yeah, I do.

[Steven Crowder]

And take that a man whose whole direction, his purpose is. See that guy on that wall? For the next four months, whatever it is, six months, eight to 12 weeks, fight camp. This is your only focus, your livelihood. The future of your family depends on it. That's your goal. You eat, think, sleep, hyper fixate on this and then that all goes away. Sure, you might run a company, you might do some commentary. It's not the same intensity. I mean, this is how biker gang started. The 1% people were coming back from war. It's really hard for them to come down and just get back into civilian life. And so you see that happen at an accelerated rate. With men particularly. We see it across the board with athletes, soldiers, sometimes even. You'll see it a lot with stand up comedians because there's a lot of compression. You go from a. A roaring arena or theater to silence. It's such a contrast. But you see it with a lot of young men, period, because they don't have goals set. You have a lot of young men right now who feel like they have no direction, they're purposeless. So you see it faster with these people because of the contrast of extreme purpose to floundering. Well, add that up over a lifetime of. Yeah, there's no real goal, there's no real hope. This is the message that's going around from the black pill community, of course, from the left. Everything's out of your control. Just do whatever kind of do what makes you happy. If young men are not setting goals, if they are not moving towards something, Young men are very task oriented. All men are. And if you don't accomplish those tasks, you just find yourself lost at sea. And I think it's reflective of what a lot of young men are facing just in a pressure cooker. Yeah, I Mean, Josh, you've obviously. You've been around enough veterans, people in active combat, and also stand up. Like, this is something I would imagine, that you've seen quite a bit.

[Guest 2]

Yeah, definitely. I mean, I didn't join a biker gang, but I know. Come on.

[Josh Firestein]

Still time.

[Guest 2]

I have friends that did, but not. You see it, especially in the military. We'll get out of the military. And then they. I felt like that I was pretty good at it, you know, not one of the best, but I was pretty good at it. And that was my life. And then I got out and I'm like, oh, well, I'm not good at anything. Tried selling cars, wasn't good at it. Ended up being a door guy at a comedy club. And, yeah, I mean, I was fine. I was good at that. But it's not a hard job.

[Josh Firestein]

Right.

[Guest 2]

Tell people to be quiet, bring them drinks and stuff. But it takes a while, man. It takes. It takes a bigger toll on your brain, on your mind and your emotional state. So I get it. I mean, I wasn't a fight or anything, but did you go through that

[Steven Crowder]

at all when you, you know, football went away because you. I mean, it was taken from you because your injury.

[Josh Firestein]

It's because of your identity.

[Steven Crowder]

It's a big part of it.

[Josh Firestein]

It's. It's what you. That's why we tell people like, you need to base your identity on something that doesn't change, no matter the circumstances. And that's faith, That's God, that's Christ. Right. You base your identity on that. You get your identity and purpose from that. And you can go through any situation. It doesn't mean that you won't have some difficulty kind of transitioning.

[Guest 4]

Yeah.

[Josh Firestein]

But your base, your foundation is there. So when you do change, even if you fall a little bit, you have a foundation to fall on. Yeah, you're right. And I had. I was. It was taken from me for medical reasons, but I struggled mightily at Notre Dame. I had knee injuries all the time. I was not nearly capable of doing what I thought I could do.

[Dustin Poirier]

Right.

[Josh Firestein]

And that. That weighs on you. So it was bittersweet, but for at least, I don't know, two, three years after, every single night, and I mean that without fail, every single night dreams about football every single night. It was my identity. Sports was who I was since I was 5, you know, and I'm 22 and now going like, okay, now what?

[Guest 2]

I'll tell you, that's a perfect. Sorry, that's a perfect. The identity part of it.

[Guest 5]

Yeah.

[Guest 2]

You Know, getting out of the military, for me, I felt unimportant. I still do. I feel like I. I don't. I mean, I have value, but I don't feel important. Well, I felt important for, for so long. And I was a young man. I was 17, just like you were, you know, playing high school football and then college football.

[Guest 4]

Yeah.

[Guest 2]

Your young formative years, Dustin, fighting. In those years, you feel important. What you do matters, right? And then you don't do it anymore. And then you feel like, well, nothing I do matters. I don't matter.

[Steven Crowder]

Well, and see, it is a blessing, though, because think you guys had that feeling and you feel like maybe it's absent. Imagine being like the vast majority of young men out there who never have felt important, right? Who never have had those goals set or they feel out of reach. I can tell you, I went through this. When I left Fox News, we parted ways and I was like, there's no future for me. I was in my 20s. I had it framed. There was a whole article. The unmaking of a conservative pundit at Daily Beast. It was a hit job. And I'll tell you what, where do you go when. At that point in time, as you know it right now, new media, online content wasn't really a thing. Certainly not video, podcasts or this space. It's the only big conservative network. You've made. The big show and, you know, there's nowhere to go is very depressing. No one knew it. I, for six months, couldn't actually do a lot of the work that I wanted to do because of contractual issues. I got out of the house and I drove. I would go to the gym, and then I would just drive and go somewhere and write in a notebook. And the people closest to me didn't know that I was living in my own personal health for about six months. I came back as though I had been at work doing something. I was thinking, well, when is this going to end? But that in and of itself was helpful. Going, at least I'm gonna get up and I'm gonna get out of the house and people are going to think that I'm doing something. And then my goals became, how do I make it seem like I'm doing something? Just writing bits, script ideas. At that point, that's probably where the seed was planted. Like, you know what? I can go do this on my own. I've talked about this. But it's a real issue. And it's an issue that we see specifically with young men, because men are task oriented in a way that is different from women. And if you take that away and you take that. That a boy away from men, you end up with a generation of lost people. And that's not good. So my heart goes out to him. I err on the side of forgiveness with this. I hope he gets help. He's welcome on the show if ever he wants to. My guess is he probably doesn't. But I don't know enough about the guy. He could be a great guy, could be a terrible guy. I don't know. I'm not gonna define him by this one incident because he was drunk and it could be a lot worse.

[Guest 2]

Delta will. Yeah, that's a prerogative. It's their business.

[Steven Crowder]

Those hoes put me on a no fly list. They don' control over that, sir. Man, shut up.

[Narrator/Commentator]

Come on.

[Steven Crowder]

I just love how he says the N word. It looks like a black officer. No one says a word. Yeah, you send in more reinforcements. This is not a good.

[Josh Firestein]

How many units? All the units.

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah, send all the units.

[Guest 2]

Hey, good on the cop, too. I mean, yeah, they handled it really well. You say, you know, the joke was, oh, the cop was scared. And yeah, sure, there's a little bit of that, but when the cop is scared, they. They go to the tool belt. He went to the Taser.

[Josh Firestein]

I would have immediately.

[Guest 2]

He knows he gets in a fight with this guy, you know, Lightwe Champion. He. He knows in his head. He's sound like a fan too, by the way. Are you just support. He knows that he's gonna. Well, I might have to kill this man in the airport right now.

[Steven Crowder]

Right?

[Guest 2]

I don't want to do that. I don't. Let me call, you know, Leroy, he's huge.

[Josh Firestein]

Yeah,

[Guest 2]

he'll call his big black guy, he'll come over, and hopefully Dustin just gives him his arm. And what do you know? He did.

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah, yeah, come on, arrest me. Like, I've seen enough world star videos. I know how this goes. He just. He took it. Yeah, yeah, that was. I will say, good work from the police. Do you want to talk about de escalation? And you see, if he was black, we've seen so many that go far further than that. Someone who's currently involved in violence. Just stop it. This isn't. This actually, if anything, is a good example of white black people able to make mistakes. And given the scenario, that's the best possible outcome. No one was hurt, okay? They got him under control. He was subdued. Apologize, and hopefully, you know, he makes it right. And hey, look, Mel Gibson has Jews funding his movies, so anything's possible.

[Josh Firestein]

They were like, yes, you're gonna kill Christ. Perfect. We're in. Wait. The Resurrection, right?

[Dustin Poirier]

What?

[Narrator/Commentator]

No. What?

[Steven Crowder]

Hey, say the sugar tits one more time. My kids like it.

[Guest 2]

You said you're making the second film. Are you killing him again? Yeah.

[Guest 5]

What is it?

[Steven Crowder]

Hasn't he had enough? Wait, he's back. You know what, you go crucify. I'll stay back.

[Guest 2]

I have to count the shekels.

[Steven Crowder]

Speaking of units, AC units. Now, I was raised in Canada and I will tell you, very few of us had any type of central AC whatsoever. Some of us had window units. Even though it gets very hot in Montreal, did you know this, that most people in Europe, Europe don't have AC at all? I've said this before. In many European countries, particularly in places like France, you go outside of the major city, people live closer to comparatively those in the third World than you do in modern America. It might surprise you. So this brings us to obviously tragedy. 40 people drowned in heat wave related deaths in France since Thursday.

[News Reporter]

France experienced its hottest night since records began almost 80 years ago on Monday, as a severe heat wave continues to engulf swathes of Europe. Across France this Tuesday, schools have been closed and trains canceled as people desperately try to stay cool in the face of temperatures that have topped 40 degrees Celsius in parts of the country. And the human toll is growing. Prime Minister Sebastian Locornu saying that 40 people, many of them young, had drowned over the past five days. It's just another example of how Paris

[Steven Crowder]

is just not equipped to deal with these kind of heat waves.

[News Reporter]

To give you some context, only one in four French households has access to air conditioning.

[Steven Crowder]

Has access to air conditioning. Now they just throw in all these people who drown like. Well, wait a second, you can't just. It's hot, therefore people drown. Oh, you do the math. Wait a second. People jumping into the rivers, a lot of them Islamic migrants who don't know how to swim and can't go through the thought, can't process. Wait a second. Don't jump in a body of water, you can't swim.

[Josh Firestein]

Find shade. That would be the first thing to do.

[Steven Crowder]

It'd be a good first step. By the way, the heat wave, as far as the average across France, 29.8 degrees Celsius. That's 85 Fahrenheit. That's 85 degrees. Like scorching. Yeah, and that's during the daytime. At night it's 70. That's a humidor. That's perfect.

[Guest 2]

70 that's, that's lower than what I set my AC to.

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah, exactly. If I set it lower than 70,

[Narrator/Commentator]

I don't know, it's too cold.

[Steven Crowder]

But 85 for those in France, that's. Even the Mona Lisa is feeling the heat, which, by the way, got a lot of the Islamists all hot and bothered and that it was compounded by it just really pissed off their wives.

[Narrator/Commentator]

Oh.

[Guest 2]

Oh, come on. Why'd you do that to those, to those kids?

[Josh Firestein]

Stuck the landing.

[Steven Crowder]

Still the primary problem with Europe and France, there's no. What was the number?

[Josh Firestein]

I see your child brides. Which one?

[Steven Crowder]

Both now. Yeah, both. I have, I have a bigger moral gripe with the child brides.

[Josh Firestein]

Yeah, me too.

[Guest 2]

If you're gonna have a child bride, you gotta at least keep her chilly.

[Steven Crowder]

That's true.

[Josh Firestein]

She deserves comfort.

[Steven Crowder]

That's why at least here, our, our perverts, they keep them in a meat locker.

[Josh Firestein]

It's like it's a bit overcompensating, but

[Steven Crowder]

still, you know, split the difference. My point is, you don't know what you got until it's gone.

[Guest 2]

Yeah. That's why we have basements here.

[Josh Firestein]

Yeah, right.

[Steven Crowder]

That's exactly. Underground cellar. I keep my. I, I keep my child rides at cellar temperature.

[Guest 2]

People think you, you keep them down there so people can't hear them scream, but really it's to keep them comfortable.

[Steven Crowder]

Cellar temperature. Like people say, I want wine at room temperature. No, you want it at cellar temperature. Just like your Islamic harem.

[Josh Firestein]

You're a courteous lover, Stephen.

[Steven Crowder]

It's not me.

[Guest 2]

Click that, please.

[Guest 3]

By the way.

[Steven Crowder]

So to give you an idea though, pay attention to the show. You just wait for me to say something. Check the. We make the references available every day that we stream. 11am Eastern. We stream every day. And you get a bibliography. Effectively every day. All the sources. If you look at the average yearly heat related death in the United States, it's 702 on average. Europe, 15,000.

[Josh Firestein]

And it's hotter here. Way hotter.

[Guest 2]

Yes.

[Steven Crowder]

And we play football in August.

[Narrator/Commentator]

Yes.

[Josh Firestein]

People pay to come sit in it.

[Guest 4]

Yeah. Watch.

[Josh Firestein]

People do that.

[Steven Crowder]

And they don't really do anything. They tell you to eat an orange and take a salt tab. And by the way.

[Guest 4]

Yes.

[Steven Crowder]

Per capita, that's a rate of 0.21 per 100,000 people in the United States versus 2.01. So 10 times the amount in Europe. To be clear, only 10% of EU households have AC at all. 90% in the United States have AC. Maybe this is why you're Seeing all of these Europeans come to the United States going, oh my, what I've been told is not true. And keep in mind these same people, 10% who have AC compared to 90%, these health care metrics that are used going, ah, we have the worst healthcare system in the world. It's often self reported satisfaction. That's why Cuba ranked higher than the United States. We were right next to I believe like Colombia and Lithuania. It's self rated. Hey, are you satisfied with your healthcare? These are people who don't have ac. When you look at the actual metrics, for example the deaths related to ac, the deaths related to terminal cancer, it's not even close. Your statistical best likelihood of surviving is living in the United States. And that's why Europeans are coming here going, holy crap, you guys have everything. I just need to find me some shade. And I just want to experience what it's going to feel like to actually walk into the stadium to feel the air conditioned. Oh, this is glorious. That is pretty lovely.

[Narrator/Commentator]

It's like stepping into a fridge.

[Guest 2]

That's me on the road.

[Steven Crowder]

There's one thing I never want to live without again, air condition. I just love ac. In Germany there's this belief that AC is unhealthy. Went the other way from the ovens. Oh geez, he's German. It's a historic, it's a matter of record.

[Guest 2]

You're not wrong either. Yeah, it is more healthy than an oven.

[Steven Crowder]

They were just like, look, let's cool it with the extremes. Once the temperatures, we probably should just be temperature neutral now. You often see people make fun of Americans and go like, ah, we're just a country with no culture. And Europeans, you Americans just. Let's take the worst stereotype. You know, you Americans, you're so fat, you're backwards, you live in the swamps. Yeah, shooting your guns. Okay, let's take like one of our poorest states or the poorest Mississippi. Okay, the GDP per capita 54,000. France is 52. The people of France are significantly more poor than the people of Mississippi on average. Think about that for a second. So whenever these Europeans people talk about, when you think Eurotrash, you think someone who's maybe a little bit trendy but elegant, more cultured, they have rednecks there too. And most of their people don't have ac. They don't have access to the kind of hospitals and modern medical interventions that you do. Or it's very difficult to come by. And they're coming here and they're very grateful. While Americans bitch And say that everything is worse than ever. So this is what's happening in Europe right now. By the way, Dan, thank you for the raid. Welcome, everybody. America is the greatest. It's the greatest country in the world. The United States, it's not even close. People who've experienced all of the above know it. It's even more stark of a contrast when you live here. Visiting is one thing. Living here versus living in Canada or Europe makes it even more apparent. These heat waves just highlighted again. But you don't have to take the heat to be clear in the United States because you have A.C. good for you. Or the heat, figuratively, of an oppressive mortgage, if you get the right help.

[Guest 4]

And after Mr. Rogers saved his neighborhood from the fire, he hosted and funded a block party for all to attend.

[Guest 2]

You know, my neighbor, old Mrs. Whitby, she refinanced with American financing, saved a bundle.

[Guest 4]

Oh, that's nice. What does that have to do with this story right now? This is live. We're on live radio.

[Guest 2]

Well, they both saved.

[Guest 4]

Hmm. Great. In other news, in the latest study, nutritionists say you won't believe what's hidden in your children's lunch meat.

[Guest 2]

You know, with American financing, there's no hidden fees.

[Guest 4]

New studies show my wife was hiding things from me.

[Guest 2]

Studies show separate checking and savings account.

[Guest 4]

Let me guess. A secret lover, too, huh? Can I get it?

[Guest 2]

How did you know?

[Guest 4]

A big one.

[Guest 2]

Was it you?

[Guest 4]

Oh, everyone saw that dime store floozy for the harlot that she was.

[Steven Crowder]

You adultering bastard.

[Guest 4]

I'm not adult. I wouldn't touch that broad with his. Hey, I'm sorry. You know I like you. It's just. His wife's a slut.

[Guest 2]

You're right.

[Guest 4]

No, I'm sorry.

[Guest 2]

I just get so worked up.

[Guest 1]

It's.

[Guest 4]

What is with. No, don't say it. Fight back. Have a backbone. This is the problem. The reason your wife wants a man that she can. She can have a volley with. You can't have a volley if you're just mush.

[Steven Crowder]

I'm still wearing the ring.

[Guest 4]

Yes, because you're a loser.

[Steven Crowder]

This guy can't get it off.

[Guest 4]

What are you on about?

[Guest 2]

Fingers got too fat.

[Guest 4]

I don't know if I feel bad for you or just want to spit on you and move on with my day.

[Steven Crowder]

I haven't showered in weeks. That'd be nice.

[Guest 4]

You know, I never told this story, but one time I actually hit a small boy with my car. Call American financing today at 1-800-974-6500 or visit american financing.net crowder. No upfront fees closing as fast as 10 days. And you could even delay up to two mortgage payments.

[Steven Crowder]

NMLS 182334 that's true, by the way. Quick question. Who wants to see Schindler's Lisp? We've written it, don't know where to fit it. It's not political, but I think it's fun. Schindler's Lisp. Comment below.

[Josh Firestein]

What?

[Steven Crowder]

I could have saved more people.

[Guest 4]

Saved?

[Steven Crowder]

She shaved.

[Guest 4]

Saved.

[Guest 2]

Are you not getting this?

[Josh Firestein]

No, I get it.

[Guest 5]

I get it.

[Josh Firestein]

I think it'd be funny.

[Steven Crowder]

He's like, what's the point? It's just funny.

[Josh Firestein]

I didn't say anything about the point. I think we can find a place.

[Steven Crowder]

Well, your head comes to a point now.

[Guest 2]

Hey, it does not.

[Steven Crowder]

No, it doesn't.

[Guest 2]

Round Dome.

[Josh Firestein]

Thank you, Josh.

[Steven Crowder]

Speaking of Europe, Europe has fallen. And there aren't enough people there who are willing to stand up for it. Sorry.

[Josh Firestein]

Hey.

[Steven Crowder]

Change my mind. European men. I don't know what you guys can do at this point. It is bad, it is bleak for Europe, and we need to avoid that here in the United States. We need to stop it at the little seeds of Marxism. And just to be clear, I have told you many times, if nothing else, if after I'm long dead and gone, long dawn, dead, dawning, long gone, it's gonna be bad,

[Josh Firestein]

I wouldn't say it.

[Steven Crowder]

I wouldn't. The left, you go, how can Islamists be allies with lgbt? It's Marxism. It's Marxism. They just view the world and certainly politics through oppressor and oppressed. Whoever is more successful, whoever, whoever is better at their endeavor, they are automatically the bad guy. You grant the moral high ground to the minority, to the oppressed, to the unsuccessful, even if they are a criminal. For more proof, see ice. Not deporting violent felons. It is Marxism and Islam. Socialists, they make good bedfellows because they both view the world through Marxism. So we'll start off with Islam in these elections. It's scary. And then get to the Communists winning in New York City. But I will tell you, it's not anything new, contrary to what folks have told you. So first, because it's fun. Look at this picture of Hamtramck. City officials visiting the White house in the 1970s. Hamtramck was entirely Polish. Remember it was 90% Polish in the 70s. Remember when that was the group of people we made fun of?

[Josh Firestein]

The Polaks?

[Guest 5]

Yeah.

[Steven Crowder]

White people with the same IQ who were largely Christian and law Abiding. We're like, ah, damn Pollocks. They're like, imagine if people are like, hey, how many Polox does it take to screw in a light bulb? Well, 19. To have child brides and rape the native population mercilessly. Like, that doesn't sound like Pollacks. That's Islam. I want you to look at Hamtramck city council today. Here you go. This is. Yeah, now it's 70% Muslim.

[News Reporter]

Wow.

[Steven Crowder]

Which do you prefer? How does that happen? Yeah, you know how it happens. And we'll get to how it starts. But here's what that city council looked like in action. This clip went viral, but we have a new clip that just came out today. Here's the city council of Hamtramck.

[Narrator/Commentator]

We are in recess. Mr. Hassan, calm down.

[Steven Crowder]

I am so fake.

[Narrator/Commentator]

You are a professional. Look at your Facebook group, how you represent yourself at Ford. Represent the city.

[Steven Crowder]

Hold on, hold on, guys.

[Narrator/Commentator]

Hold on. Hold on.

[Steven Crowder]

Hold on, everybody, please.

[Narrator/Commentator]

Are we allowed to speak?

[Steven Crowder]

We need to go back on the record anyway. I'm sorry. I think that is the newer clip. I think the one that you have seen. That was June 9th, but they just released it recently, so it's filmed June 9th. Here's another one, just to give you more context. I can do the same thing every council meeting.

[Guest 4]

I can.

[Steven Crowder]

And I can make the decision you

[Dustin Poirier]

can do at the.

[News Reporter]

I don't know.

[Guest 4]

No, no, no.

[Narrator/Commentator]

I don't know.

[Steven Crowder]

This is my way of practice.

[Narrator/Commentator]

I am speaking. Excuse me. I have done enough. Enough behavior. Your behavior is very bad.

[Guest 2]

They're about 10 seconds. Throwing sandals at each other.

[Steven Crowder]

India and Pakistan.

[Narrator/Commentator]

You are my father to censor. Like outside business. Are you my parenting? Are you my parenting? You are my father for.

[Steven Crowder]

Are you my parenting? What do you mean?

[Guest 4]

No, it's a question.

[Steven Crowder]

Are you my parenting?

[Guest 4]

We. I.

[Steven Crowder]

Because he's my brother too. I understand he's yours.

[Guest 2]

Will you be my daddy?

[Steven Crowder]

Bangs his flipper on the table. You are not my daddy. Oh, wait, that's right. You are my daddy slash uncle. It's a joke based on reality. Again, just talking about 198 million Muslims who support violence against infidels against civilians worldwide. You also need to look at the reality as far as any Islamic nation where they are a majority, where you have Islamic law, close to 50% of the population of the result of. Of some form of incest in many of these countries. On the low end, 30 in some places, 70 plus. Yeah, yeah.

[Guest 2]

Like Pakistan and Somalia.

[Josh Firestein]

Yes.

[Guest 2]

It's most marriages.

[Steven Crowder]

I would love to hear the Marxist leftists here who say, hey, love is love. Make the argument against cousin marriage and insist. Make the moral argument against it. You can't. It can't be done. So this brings us to the rest of the country now. Now New York is vying for top spot to rival Michigan as far as an entirely Islamic city council. They just had two Muslims win their Democratic primaries. Let's go through these two and then we'll get to what has also happened. The more notable ones endorsed by Mamdani. First one was Avila. Chevalier explained that she reverted to Islam out of social justice. And she is actually, I believe she'd be representing New York District 13. Here she is converted to Islam. Reverted, sorry. Social justice.

[Guest 6]

I know that we all deserve a representative who isn't bought by aipac. I'm also the only Muslim in my family. I reverted three years ago. Actually, the friend who pushed me to do it asked me, why have you fasted for four years and yet you haven't? Take your Shahada. She's here today. And when she asked me that, I thought, that is a great question. Seeing how all of my friends who were showing up to organizing, who are Muslim, were showing up in the space and the grace and, and love and passion that they. They had in these spaces, that really pushed me to join the faith.

[Steven Crowder]

When I think Islam, I think social

[Josh Firestein]

justice and peace and love.

[Steven Crowder]

She once posted this on X. She wrote, I forgot to get napkins, so I just wiped my hand on the American flag behind me.

[Guest 2]

What a piece of shit.

[Guest 4]

Yep.

[Josh Firestein]

No kidding.

[Steven Crowder]

Deport people saying you have the right?

[Narrator/Commentator]

Sure.

[Steven Crowder]

Where are all those people saying you have the freedom of speech, not freedom from consequences. How about if you deliberately desecrate the flag and brag about it? You can't be in our representative government because you have no business representing a country you hate. That's reasonable, isn't it?

[Narrator/Commentator]

Commentable.

[Steven Crowder]

I think that's reasonable. She also declared her hate for dudes dating white chicks so racist. She wrote, black men, Arab men, fetishizing ugly colonizer women.

[Guest 2]

Oh, have I have news for her.

[Josh Firestein]

Yeah. Yes.

[Guest 4]

Yeah.

[Guest 2]

Yeah.

[Steven Crowder]

They're.

[Josh Firestein]

They're.

[Steven Crowder]

They're the ugly ones. That's the real problem. I mean, if you're gonna make the argument, you could say infidel or something. But to argue westernized American women are uglier than Arab women or that they're colonizers. Yeah, she's a racist.

[Narrator/Commentator]

She's just.

[Steven Crowder]

She's a racist. She's a racial supremacist. She is awful. And she hates this country. We have someone else as well. Aber or Aber Kawas would be New York State Senate District 12. This is someone who wants to represent the American people. She wants to be in the government of the United States of America. Even though she once said that 911 was a manifestation of American capitalism and white supremacy.

[Guest 3]

And so like. And finding that like, you know, the system of capitalism and racism and white supremacy, etc. Have all. And Islamophobia have all been used, you know, to colonize lands. Right. To take resources from other people. And so this is like a long trajectory and we're just seeing the manifestation of that continuation. Right. With 9 11. And so a lot of times when people are asking us to respond about, you know, attack, right. When if we look back, like historically, right. You know, a lot of us come from lands that were colonized, lands where wars are being waged. Right. Name them because of US Policy or the policies in Europe. And so I find that we can connect over that. But then also that the idea that we have to apologize for like a terror attack that like a couple people did, and then there is no apologies or reparations for genocides and for slavery, et cetera, is something that I kind of find, like, reprehensible.

[Narrator/Commentator]

Your people still practice slavery?

[Steven Crowder]

More slaves on Earth than ever in recorded history. Huge portion of them in the Arab, North African world. We don't have it here anymore. Lands of colonies, name them also. Aren't we just tired of this shit? You hear it from the Marxists, right, too. It's like, you know, if we weren't there, none of these people would hate us. Islam is actually great, great now do every other century since Islam's existence. Also, why do the Ottomans, the Turks, why do the Arabs get a pass for colonizing?

[Josh Firestein]

They were more prolific in the Middle east than anybody. Doing that.

[Guest 4]

Yes.

[Steven Crowder]

Oh, no, we're just supposed to believe that Vlad started impaling for shits and giggles. You guys have no historical context. Let's just call it a wash. Let's assume your premise is true. Colonizing. Okay, great. You guys still have slaves and you kind of did a lot of colonizing. I wouldn't say colonizing so much as conquering and subjugating, but you want to judge the United. So let me get this straight. In her mind, someone from Syria, Yemen, Iraq, Iran is fleeing there because of the United States colonizing. And we owe reparations to the nations that still practice indentured servitude. And by the way, also colonized and conquered for far longer.

[Guest 2]

And they're fleeing their colonizers to go to their colonizer.

[Steven Crowder]

Right. It's true.

[Josh Firestein]

And just to buttress your point on slavery, here's a slave market currently in Libya.

[Steven Crowder]

Oh, they got five stars. They got lighting.

[Josh Firestein]

Must be good.

[Steven Crowder]

Craigslist for slaves.

[Josh Firestein]

Yeah. Need a slave.

[Steven Crowder]

She also. But you'd say, okay, Islam, slavery, archaic value system. But how does she reconcile that with promoting her campaign at a drag show that was DJed by Bradley? Chelsea Manning. Yes.

[Guest 3]

I think it's time we hit the door. Get your palm cards, get your lit, and you can join us here on Wednesday. Wednesday,

[Steven Crowder]

where we'll have democratic socialists for a beer featuring drag shows.

[Guest 3]

DJ Chelsea Manning.

[Guest 1]

She's so excited.

[Steven Crowder]

Let me make this really simple. Drag shows to promote this campaign at a bar. Okay? Islam achieves a majority in this country just compared to any place in the world where they've achieved a minority. You think you have drag shows? Do you think you have bars? Do you think you have beer? So how does this make sense? It doesn't. It's Marxism. The lgbtq. It's valuable through the lens of Marxism because we can use them to overthrow our oppressors. Let's just call them colonizers. Understand the enemy that you are facing. Don't try to make sense of it outside of the paradigm of Marxism. That's what these people are. And here's the thing. There's always someone looking to make a quick buck, no matter what the politics are. Local franchises in New York, they're already getting ahead of the curve with their marketing campaigns. Have it my way.

[Josh Firestein]

No, no. It means orders ready.

[Steven Crowder]

That's right.

[Josh Firestein]

That's it.

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah.

[Josh Firestein]

Just don't get afraid.

[Steven Crowder]

Hold the pickles, I'll behead you. McDonald's following suit. Not to be outdone by Burger King.

[Guest 4]

Be honest.

[Steven Crowder]

They never are. Although they're not just changing their name, but their slogan. Not to mention Little Caesars went all in by changing their. Obviously their famous slogan from Pizza Pizza to Kill the Jews. That's just.

[Guest 2]

Oh, they're hot. Ready.

[Steven Crowder]

That just seems hateful. It's not even marketing pizza.

[Josh Firestein]

They had to go from Romans, who were known for killing Jews, to worse.

[Steven Crowder]

And by the way, if you go into a Little Caesars and you say kill the Jews three times, kids eat free. Really?

[Guest 2]

Yeah. And you can. You can choose between crazy bread or crazy behead.

[Steven Crowder]

There you go.

[Guest 2]

That's fine.

[Steven Crowder]

That's right. I can't get enough. That's. What does mean is the cr. I fill up on Crazy behead.

[Josh Firestein]

Put this one back in the oven.

[Steven Crowder]

Oh, my God, no.

[Narrator/Commentator]

My gosh.

[Steven Crowder]

We have a nice little cartoon with a beard and a turtle who killed a Jew rocket. And then you're just like.

[Josh Firestein]

No, I just. I think sometimes underdone pizza is bad.

[Steven Crowder]

No, right. Just stop.

[Guest 2]

Yeah, don't. Don't say you want them well done.

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah, it's enough. It's enough. So stupid. We'll just hit refresh and then you can do it again. So let me give you the breakdown. How do these people get into office care, which is a front for the Muslim Brotherhood? We've talked about them. And endorse both of these people. Now understand the plan at play. This is not some conspiracy theory. This is how Islam has spread. This is how it's played out everywhere. They've gotten a foothold, including all of Europe. The 1991 Muslim Brotherhood document titled Enablement of Islam in North America laid out this blueprint. Here's what they. The movement Islam must plan and struggle to obtain the keys and the tools of this process and carry out this grand mission as a civilization jihad. The must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and sabotaging its miserable house so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious all over other religions. How this is allowed to be a political organization, how it is allowed to have any type of political sway, I will never understand.

[Josh Firestein]

Yes, they just in their own words, say, we want the destruction of Western civilization.

[Steven Crowder]

Absolutely.

[Josh Firestein]

This is 1991. What is it 1990 that you had? The bombing of the World Trade center. And then obviously in 2001 you had the Twin Towers take them down. It's not like this is the only strategy, but this is the strategy that is the oldest.

[Steven Crowder]

Well, then you look at. Okay, do we see something that might reflect this strategy? Well, let's look at New York City. The Islamic population, 1990 was about 340,000. That was a state, I guess I should say. We don't really have specific city data today. Almost a million 945,000. Boy, that's a change.

[Josh Firestein]

Ten years before that. So I did 1970, I think it was around roughly 60 to 70,000. Just keeps exploding. Yeah, go ahead.

[Guest 2]

Scientifically, you can do this. You can go another 20 years down the road, 30 years down the road, and you can see it'll be, you know, 2 million, 3 million.

[Steven Crowder]

Well, and it'll accelerate.

[Josh Firestein]

It's. It's.

[Guest 4]

Yeah.

[Steven Crowder]

Birth experiential because of the birth rates.

[Guest 2]

If they went, they kept the same rate. Yeah, exponential.

[Dustin Poirier]

5, 6%.

[Steven Crowder]

If there aren't enough attractive Muslims here stateside, they'll just. I mean, they're sisters, cousins. Just as good. As recently as 2007, there were zero Muslims in Congress.

[Josh Firestein]

Oh, the good old days.

[Steven Crowder]

Next year there may be eight. If you look at all the other races up for GRAB being pushed by organizations and, by the way, other fronts, similar to care. Anytime you see an Islamic nonprofit, just do a little digging, and you will find ties to, if not direct terrorism. Groups that support radicalism as a matter of an exception to the rule doesn't exist historically. It's always been the case 100% of the time, to be clear. That being said, sometimes I understand. I look at the decadence of the west, and they look at the onlyfans, and they look at the purposelessness. And for example, they look at the gentleman's clubs. It's true. And that's one area where we could find common ground. I'd like to see decency make a comeback. That's why we don't do super chats. We don't allow you to treat us like gentlemen's club workers, but instead, we give things away to you. It's time for reverse super Chat. And today, the folks at Blackout Coffee want to give back 50 free rumble premium subscriptions. Just gifted in the chat. I. I think. Do we run out of. Do we run out of coffee?

[Josh Firestein]

Oh, man, we don't have your bag.

[Steven Crowder]

The Strange animal blend is my personal blend. You go to blackoutcoffee.com Crowder. It's all we drink here in the office.

[Guest 4]

I work.

[Steven Crowder]

Work with them to create it. Use that code, Crowder. 20 off your first order.

[Guest 4]

I. It's.

[Steven Crowder]

It's what we drink here. And we. We can't think blackout enough because everyone else want us to sell all their coffee. Like, can I make my own coffee that you know I like? Blackout said.

[News Reporter]

Yes.

[Steven Crowder]

So if you got a. A free Rumble Premium subscription, hey, tag me on X or Instagram. This has been reverse Super Chat. All right, so we've talked about Islam, and I don't know if we'll be able to get to the housing bill.

[Josh Firestein]

The housing bill may not happen.

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah, it may not happen. Let's go to their bedfellows. Communists. Yeah, and I'm using that term.

[Guest 4]

Let's just.

[Steven Crowder]

You know what? Let's say Marxists, because Marxists, really, the only difference is pretty much a beard. Also, it's more cultural. It's more of a view of the world entirely, I guess you'd say, at large, as opposed to just the political system. These people, some of these candidates we're about to get into, they're open socialists, but they say that they're actually Marxists. So I don't even want to give them the benefit of referring to them as socialists. Here's the thing too, when it comes to communism, because it's becoming more mainstream now, people are saying, ah, you know what, maybe it's something that we need, especially in the era of AI. So I see a lot of people extolling the virtues of communism because capitalism, in their view, free enterprise has failed. Here's what I would like to go through. Here's what I would propose to. If you're discussing with a communist, let's find some common ground. Can we all agree on the premise at least? Capitalism is not flawless. No system is perfect.

[Narrator/Commentator]

Right.

[Steven Crowder]

And in many instances, capitalism has failed certain segments of the population because greed unfortunately is a part of human nature invariably. Can we agree on that premise? If you say, I say capitalism. But greed unfortunately is going to be a component. That's why a lot of these systems have failed. Every communist will have to grant. Yes. Okay, question two. If greed will always be among us, where does it go under communist capitalism? It's an entirely self defeating premise. We need to defeat greed, which we know will always be among us. That's what happens in capitalism. You see things shake out. So let's centralize all the power in capitalism. Greedy people, corrupt people. They might be attracted to a seat on a board at a corporation, they might abuse it, but at least there's some kind of competition. Right. Greedy, corrupt people are going to be attracted to power. Oh, what happens when you centralize that power? It's going to be attracted to that centralized power. If greed will always be among us, why do we act as though it's only a flaw in capitalism? And where does greed, where does corruption go under communism?

[Guest 1]

It gets legal precedent.

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah, and that's what. Now here's the answer. Look at the historical record of every single communist country ever. You centralize greed and corruption. There are no exceptions.

[Guest 2]

At least in capitalism. Anybody can be greedy and corrupt.

[Steven Crowder]

Yeah, anybody can. And there are some limiting forces.

[Josh Firestein]

Great good in capitalism.

[Steven Crowder]

Greed. You can only serve your own greed if to some degree you serve others. Yeah, you can lie.

[Guest 4]

Yeah.

[Steven Crowder]

You can trick. Yeah, you can cheat. That happens. And we have systems in place and laws. That is the goal. That's the system of communism is to lie and trick and steal. That Brings us to yesterday. All three candidates endorsed by Mamdani won their primaries in New York.

[Guest 5]

We saw a very large Mamdani wave last night.

[Steven Crowder]

We've talked about will this race be

[Guest 5]

viewed as a litmus test. And I was trying to be all nuanced going into primary night. There was no nuance. If you were a Democratic Socialist, you were a winner. If Mayor mom Donnie was with you, you were a winner. That's what we saw last night. It was a dream night for the mayor. You rarely see wins like this where it's basically a clean sweep for any Democratic Socialist of America candidate. And it was definitely a big win for any Mayor Mom Donnie candidate.

[Guest 2]

Yeah.

[Steven Crowder]

So the people who won, Chevalier, who we just discussed earlier, then you also have Claire Valdez, Brad Lander, and I see a lot of people out there saying, oh man, this is really bad. Say goodbye to the moderate Democrat Party. This is a hard left turn. No, it's not a new term turn. Look, the Democrat Party. And this is why I say I will not always vote Republican. The Republican Party cannot take my vote for granted. I am precluded from voting for the Democrat Party though, ever. In other words, that's a hard no. And then, okay, there are some Republicans I'll vote for and some. Some I won't. If it's a bridge too far. There is no way I can in clear conscience vote for the Democrat Party. Why? Because it's always been made up of Marxists and an immoral people. What do I mean by that? I mean Marxists and I mean people voting exclusively in their own self interest. Those people are always very easy to trick. Those people. Well, what are you doing? For me, it's Marxists who wage class warfare and people going, I still want my. I still want my Coca Cola on snap. Hands off my Medicaid section 8. Hey, forgive my student loans. I shouldn't have to pay rent. Those people are very easily won over.

[Narrator/Commentator]

Buy free.

[Steven Crowder]

Shit. This isn't new. And I'm tired of people saying, I didn't leave the Democratic Party, they left me. It's a cop out. Just admit that you were wrong. Admit at one point in time you were following a party that carried the flag of Marxism. However, they tried to veil it and now you have a problem with it, but acting as though this is new. There are plenty of examples throughout history. I mean, you could go to communist, Marxist socialist policies like FDR and Lyndon Johnson. But you could go to specific people too, like Ron Dellums, socialist mayor, Oakland. You can look at. There was Was it Eugene V. Debs, 1920 socialist who ran for president from prison. Norman Thomas ran for president six times in the Socialist Party ticket. Yeah, then you have. Not to mention people like Ed Asner, Robert De Niro, Harvey Milk, John Lennon and Yoko. Bernie Sanders, for crying out loud. Jane Fonda, all of the celebrities, Oliver Stone, they were outright endorsing socialism, Communism, spending time with the Castros, saying, actually, you know what, you look at Vietnam, they actually have things right over here. Barack Obama, very sympathetic to socialist causes, spent time with convict, convicted domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, smoked crackers with him. Aoc, by the way, even Helen Keller. And by that I mean her handler, Ann Sullivan. Because Helen Keller is not a thing.

[Guest 2]

No, don't you remember that thing she said about socialism? Oh, okay, yeah, I thought you forgot

[Steven Crowder]

that was turned into like a 19 page thesis at Harvard that just so happened to mirror what her handler believed. As far as socialism, it's not a thing. I won't act like it is. We about to say something, Noodles? No, no, no. I was gonna.

[Guest 2]

I was gonna do a Helen Keller, but you ate it up.

[Josh Firestein]

Yeah, I was gonna do Our Boy from the Congo, turn it into a music career.

[Guest 1]

Yeah, democratic socialism.

[Guest 2]

That guy's for sure socialist.

[Josh Firestein]

Yeah, he's gotta be.

[Steven Crowder]

And here's the thing, you see it in New York, they can do it out in the open. This is always what is beneath the surface of the Democrat Party. So when people out there in the Marxist right say there's no difference, but let's just accelerate the revolution, right? We're accelerationists. It's like every scene in the film where you have the henchmen or people go, you know what, it's fine, we're going to serve this master. And then they end up being killed like Scar in Lion King with hyenas bane and that Australian actor, I gave you a small fortune. They will always discard you. The truth is, people get really scared when they. That's what it looks like when you say, let's accelerate this because the Republican Party sucks and everything's the same. Look at New York. That's your country. That's who they won't serve you. That's who you will serve. I get it. Both sides need to improve for sure. But look at. They're just willing to do out in the open what the leftists in this country, the Democrat Party, want for every single one of you. And if New York happens across the country, guess what? You never get it back.

[Josh Firestein]

Yeah. And that's exactly what they said. Remember? We had the undercover video of that guy who said, basically like this Mamdani is the test case. They've got socialist candidates ready to go across the country. They weren't lying, right? They do have them ready to go. By the way, Hasan Piker was at the party. Do you see the video of him basically saying that, like, his price just went up?

[Guest 5]

Yeah.

[Josh Firestein]

I don't know if it meant money or if he said, you have to be a socialist if you want any of this.

[Steven Crowder]

Shine, meaning his endorsement.

[Josh Firestein]

His endorsement. You want him to come endorse you and campaign for you, you have to be a socialist. These people want to destroy this country. When did we say that's fine if people vote for their own destruction?

[Steven Crowder]

No. Well, let me present to you something where people go, oh, my gosh, all these special interests and lobbies, I get it. It's a problem. Understood. But they have to vie for the endorsement of a man who teared up, and I use that term loosely, man, Hassan Piker. It MAU's little red book and went and did the bidding of communist Cuban government. Who do you think these Democrat candidates are beholden to? How do you think they appeal to those folks? We thought that new media would decentralize, you know, release the strangleholds on a lot of the information. Truth is, in some cases, certainly for the left, it's just made them much more easily purchased. As far as the influence, yeah, that's where we are.

[Josh Firestein]

And Chris Murphy even responded to all of this. There was a Democrat who basically said, don't use our party, our funding, our people, and then tell us that you hate our party. And I think he was speaking to the socialists who won, maybe a couple in specific. And Chris Murphy basically just said, I don't know, man. The voters chose. Maybe that's what the party really wants. The guy that can just be bought, he's just gonna go with whatever direction the wind is blowing on this, I don't know, socialism that. The people that say they really want to undermine this country and destroy Western civilization. Their words, not mine. Maybe the voters have it right, and maybe that's what Democrats should do. That's the mentality. There are no principles that they go, I'm not going any further. This is my line in the sand. They don't have one.

[Guest 1]

This is. This is the concept that came up with Lane. I think it was late last week where, you know, that the invasion is coming in. And all of these Democratic socialists, they know they have other places to go if it doesn't work out. Here we are that last bastion, that. That last gate that's holding up freedom and everything that we believe in this republic.

[Guest 4]

Yeah.

[Guest 1]

If it falls here, there is no place for us to go.

[Guest 4]

No.

[Guest 1]

So keep that in mind when you're voting.

[Steven Crowder]

When people talk about culture, say, how about that? How about one country? How about one country where freedom is a thing? How about one where the First Amendment is a thing? How about one where we're allowed to own guns as law abiding citizens? How about, hey, how about that's our culture since its founding? Are we allowed to have that? Are we allowed. Hey, leftists, are we? No, because Marxism destroys anything that isn't Marxism. Just remember that when you listen to accelerationists. I get it. I understand that things could be improved. For example, we're actually. I wanna wait till tomorrow to address this housing bill because.

[Josh Firestein]

Let's see what happens.

[Steven Crowder]

I don't know how this is gonna shake out. I think the SAVE act is very important. I couldn't be more disappointed with the Republican Party and their inability to get it done. But I don't like holding something up that would be good for the American people as leverage. I'm disappointed with that. I still don't want to see communist New York become the rest of America. So instead of that, we're going to actually play. Yeah, it's perfect. Perfect day for hate. Hate symbol or not.

[Guest 5]

Oh boy.

[Steven Crowder]
