Welcome this Monday to the Rumble lineup, live, 9am to 7pm Eastern. You don't need to change that dial. It's live. It is all free. Rumble owns live. YouTube's pretty much dead with live and. And Rumble did it. I mean, I guess some people are still there. Twitch and what have you. A lot has gone on this weekend. Iran, right? The protests are going on. They're heating up a lot of opinions across the board. We sent. Sent our people here down to, I guess not a protest, but a show of solidarity in Texas. And we got to speak with some real Iranians. I don't even want to say Iranian American. Some of them are recent immigrants to get their perspective. What do you think? You think it's the Jews? You think it's regime change? Or do you think it's organic? And the people of Iran might actually have a vested interest in doing away with the Islamic Republic regime? And then we contrast that with the protests, sorry, riots in Minnesota. So one group of people actually oppressed in Iran, they get executed for speaking out against a government who is not a legitimate government. The other is a bunch of white, privileged, liberal, angry feminist bitches who don't really even know what they're protesting and run over cops with cars. But guess who the left supports? And then that brings us to the Insurrection Act. It's time to invoke it. I support invoking it. I think a lot of people don't know what the Insurrection act is, what it is not. And I'll make the case. Let me ask you. Insurrection act, yay or nay? There's only one right answer. Yay. On with the show.
Iranian Protester
Hey, man, this is a great bar.
Steven Crowder
Barbecue, right?
Morgan
Yeah.
Steven Crowder
The perfect yard for this, too. Yeah. Such a great house, man. I like you guys. Yeah, check them. Nice. Nice.
Morgan
But that's not how it actually went down. No. Nick never got to deep fry that turkey for his holiday barbecue because Nick never bought that dream home with that big, beautiful yard. You see, Nick didn't think he could qualify for a home loan. He just assumed that his credit would be too low and his debt would be too high. If he had just called the experts at American Financing, they could have helped him overcome those doubts and misconceptions. But he never called. Here's how it actually went down.

Steven Crowder
Gerald was just denigrating salt and vinegar chips right before I went live. Everyone let him know how wrong he is. Admonish him. Admonish him. Admonish him.
Gerald
Salt and vinegar. Anything. No, I just can't do vinegar. Yeah, I'm out.
Steven Crowder
Except ketchup.
Gerald
I'm fine with that.
Morgan
If Gerald orders fish and chips at a restaurant and they put vinegar at his table.
Steven Crowder
Yeah, no tip.
Morgan
He throws that.
Gerald
No, I know.
Steven Crowder
I want fish and chips. None of that. Tartar sauce.
Morgan
None of that.
Steven Crowder
None of that. You don't like tartar? Well, then don't order fish and chips.
Gerald
I. Ketchup. I'm totally fine.
Morgan
You embarrassed us. I'm ashamed.
Steven Crowder
You are a stain on the history of this studio for vinegar.
Morgan
Yeah, that's right.
Steven Crowder
I crossed the line.
Morgan
How do you feel about balsamic vinegar?
Gerald
I love that.
Morgan
Vinaigrettes.
Steven Crowder
See, he's not even consistent. He just. He likes balsamic vinegar. But he hates other forms of vinegar. No, no, no.
Morgan
He hates vinegar. It's pure form, but variations.
Steven Crowder
He wants us to live in a vinegar apartheid state.
Gerald
I want vinegar. Not a pure vinegar.
Steven Crowder
Okay. All right. It's a live show. Weekdays, 11am you can expect more of this and. Yeah, I already gave you the rundown. Cat. And Morgan, how are you?
Gerald
Aside from being fantastic without eating those stupid chips.
Steven Crowder
All right, that's a. He just doesn't. He's wrong. It's okay to be wrong.
Morgan
It's okay to be wrong.
Steven Crowder
It's okay to be wrong. And Friday, January 16th, at the Big Laugh Comedy Club in Fort Worth, Texas. Not Firestein and X, because it is not Josh Firestein. How are you?
Morgan
I'm good. You know, I was baptized in a river of vinegar.
Steven Crowder
Really?
Gerald
Yeah.
Steven Crowder
Well, there you go.
Morgan
Yeah. So I am more holy.
Steven Crowder
Pickled. Yep, exactly.
Gerald
That's nowhere in scripture at all.
Steven Crowder
Yeah.
Morgan
Yeah. It's a pickled. It's a pickled heaven.
Steven Crowder
So, before we get to the Iranian protests, we have some exclusive footage there on the ground in Texas, a show of solidarity and the Insurrection Act. Minnesota, all that going on. Also going to cover Ashley Sinclair and Elon Musk. Whoops. Another one for me. I was right before any of that. Just in Exhibit Z42, that hockey is a different sport. Watch this brawl that took place during a Hershey Bears Mites on Ice youth showcase. This actually happened, and I love how long it goes.
Morgan
Okay.
Steven Crowder
Is it wrong that I think it's cute still.
Morgan
No, it's a little cute now it's less cute. Burn them young. Oh, it's cute again.
Steven Crowder
Where's the ref? You're supposed to stop it once it hits the ice.
Morgan
Yeah, there's no ref in sight.
Steven Crowder
That guy took his skate off.
Morgan
That's a goalie. That's a goalie throwing punches there.
Steven Crowder
Yeah, the go. Oh, the goalie makes him a big hit later on.
Morgan
Where's he going now? Okay, he's. He might be giving up here. Going back to the goal.
Steven Crowder
By the way, these are all kids. They're aged eight and under.
Morgan
Oh, that little kid is putting up his dukes.
Guest Commentator
Oh, just watch.
Steven Crowder
Watch. Here comes the goalie. He comes back in. He comes back in.
Morgan
Greatest sport on earth. Go back to the goal, dude.
Steven Crowder
Where are the reps? It went on for a while. By the way, the winner went on to face George Laroque. So that was.
Morgan
You looking for a chili, buddy?
Steven Crowder
I just wanted an autograph. This is the kind of thing that meddling moms like. This is why we have to get rid of violence in the NHL, because kids will copy. Yeah, I like. Would you rather have them emulating the players in soccer?
Morgan
Typically in hockey, there is supposed to be a referee. He's supposed to break it up once they fall on the ice.
Steven Crowder
Right, right.
Gerald
Should have been over quickly.
Morgan
Get those skates out of the way.
Steven Crowder
Yeah, yeah. But I guarantee you, those kids learned a lot about them. And they all went out, they quashed it, and they had a beer. That's right. I came in and boom.
Gerald
Yeah, that was awesome.
Morgan
They all shared one beer.
Steven Crowder
It's so funny. It's kind of like when Christians were defending, we found ourselves in the position to defend Hooters because I love. Like, this is chauvinistic, and we don't want to be defending Hooters. Once upon a time, traditional Christian conservatives would be like, hey, kids, come on. You shouldn't fight. But now it's gone so far, we're like, you know what? I kind of. I prefer that to kids identifying as cats. So if we have to choose between the two, let's just let him hash it out. I feel better about this. Yeah, I feel better about. I feel better about society. I do. Direction.
Gerald
It's brightening my day.
Steven Crowder
I think it should be mandatory.
Morgan
I think I might as turn into a hockey dad.
Steven Crowder
Yeah, there you go. There you go. Although it's get my fat ass out.
Morgan
There on the skates.
Steven Crowder
It's a lot of work. Like, you have to get up at 6 in the morning, rent ice time.
Morgan
And I get up at 5.
Steven Crowder
Well, there you go.
Morgan
I'm not going to rent ice time though.
Steven Crowder
That's why you have so many families who play hockey, because it's like a family sport. You know, you have to have dads involved. You're not going to get that in basketball. High school. I used to practice before school. There you go.
Gerald
There you go.
Steven Crowder
And that's what stunted your growth.
Morgan
It is early rising.
Steven Crowder
All right, just, we have to address this.
Guest Commentator
Yeah.
Steven Crowder
Come on. Ask me again why I don't trust most, not all trad con women out there like strong, independent, conservative female voices who are in the public sphere. Yeah. Here's what I usually look at. I go, okay, are they advocating for traditional lifestyle and traditional gender roles that they don't live out? Well, the answer is yes. If they are out there as a professional commentator, do they still have to side with women in this noble sisterhood that doesn't exist? Okay, yeah. And then you go, how long is their track record? I'm just leery and I'm very, very hesitant to include any of them amongst our ranks. Case in point, Ashley Sinclair and called it. She posted on X. You know, the baby mama of Elon Musk who went out, who did the maga thing, she did the trolling, would copy the change my mind posters she wrote on X. I feel immense guilt for my role on trans issues and even more guilt that things I've said in the past may have caused my son sister more pain. Idrk how to make amends for many of these things. But I've been trying incredibly hard privately to learn and advocate for those within the trans community that I've hurt. I also haven't said much on this because I have gone back and forth over whether my voice would be helpful on the issue since it will be framed as disingenuous or just turning because I'm scorned. That's true. That's absolutely right. And it's very clear. When I saw this, I said, you know what she's doing, right? She is angry because the money has run out or she's not getting the kind of communication she wants. So she's putting this out there because she knows it's a soft spot for Elon Musk. That's a big reason he turned more right leaning because one of his, I believe it was his son decided to transition. He talked about that with Jordan Peterson. So she's doing this to go. So maybe I might raise. Maybe I Might raise him like that. More money, please. More money, please. I saw this. I said, this is a shakedown that's taking place publicly. Didn't work out how she thought because Elon Musk responded, I will be filing for full custody today, given her statements implying she might transition a one year old boy. Good luck.
Morgan
Good.
Steven Crowder
Ashley Sinclair. How do they all.
Gerald
You had this unholy alliance against you.
Steven Crowder
Ashley Sinclair. Lauren Southern. Candace Owens.
Guest Commentator
Owens.
Gerald
It's like really, These are the people lined up against you.
Steven Crowder
Yeah, it was basically a me too. That wasn't a me too from COVID feminists. Gosh. Let me ask you, what kind of criteria should women like this have to meet before you trust them or include them amongst our ranks? Genuine question. And by the way, that applies to conservative women. Conservative female viewers or consumers are very different from the purveyors of content who say, hey, it's great to have a strong masculine leader in the household and follow and, you know, we should have complimentary roles. You're watching. You can believe that. People creating that, though they're not. They're out there working, they're spending time away from their family. They're not being mom. They're being professional commentator and usually telling men how we should be. You let me know what hoops they have to jump through. For me, it's a lot and it is. And I will tell you, it's a double standard. It's more than men because there's nothing hypocritical about men saying, I believe in traditional gender roles and going out and being the breadwinner. There is for women. Do we want more female talking heads or do we want more moms? And so you have to have a really, really good reason if you're not being mom. And we know that Ashley Sinclair, I mean, allegedly, we know she's not. All right, Iran. We want to go to Iran.
Morgan
I don't want to go there.
Steven Crowder
No, no one wants to go.
Morgan
I mean, you know, maybe not now.
Steven Crowder
Well, this is something you're witnessing a potential revolution in real time. And I'll make all the references available. I know you're going to hear a lot of misinformation on Iran. So I want to kind of. Let's piecemeal some of this. People will tell you it's not organic. People will tell you that only neocons want this and that this is spurred by Israel, that the Iranian people love their Islamic authority, that Trump is going to lead us into World War Three, that it's not America first. Is any of that true? Is some of it true? Well. Well, the answer is pretty much none of that is true. Here's the thing. I would bet that Israel would like a regime change. Really. I would bet that most people in Israel like sandwiches. I too enjoy sandwiches. So it's not because the Jews. And the same thing with the Iranian people. If you go back and you look into their history, this is not historically, by the way, a Muslim country. They were effectively conquered by Muslims. The Persian people are very different from the Arabic people. They had different culture, different history, different language, different IQ levels. And this is not a government that was elected by a majority of the people that turn on. This was basically a hostile takeover. This has never been a legitimate government. And the people have been trying to stage a revolution for quite a while. So they have their own interests. And other international actors may have interests too. That's what sort of muddies the waters. So let's go into this over the weekend. The protests continue to escalate, and it's even. It's really hard to know the accurate death count because we're getting some of that info from Iran. So this is taking place as we enter the third week of protests. Thousands likely dead. The numbers are only listed as hundreds. Outside communications completely cut off. Elon Musk must go to get Starlink going. Public executions being announced by the regime. Yeah, and here's the thing. Not everything is a psyop. Some things are psyops. And of course, governments work off the radar if they have vest. That happens. All governments do that across the world. Not all of the many hundreds, potentially thousands of people who have been killed in Iran are on the payroll of anyone else. Many of them are willing to die. And more people pouring into the streets. That doesn't happen unless it's organic. Just to be clear.
Gerald
Well, it's been going on for decades. It fires up. And what happens is the regime usually puts it down hard enough. And public executions and disappearing people, and they go back home, Right? So it's not like Israel every single time is like, here we go, we're going again, right? 20, 30, 40 years now.
Morgan
And is there one guy, one person, one figure that's leading this, this movement?
Steven Crowder
No.
Morgan
It seems like there is usually a good sign. If there's one guy, it's usually a good sign of some other intervention, right? Like, here's our leader, here's our guy here. We'll give him all the tools he needs, right? And he'll create an uprising in his own people. That's not.
Steven Crowder
No, it's not. You have a few people who are acting, I would imagine, in positions of more authority than others. That's why they're going to execute those who they think are know the worst actors. But no, this is something that is a long time coming. And, you know, let's rewind this. Hey, what if Iran did get to the point of having nuclear weapons, which they were going to, then their threats here wouldn't ring so hollow. There's very little they can do. They can engage in terrorism, of course, and they can have sleeper cells and they can hit military bases. But a nuclear Iran, that would have been a very, very dangerous, very different parallel universe. So last night, President Trump actually addressed this from Air Force One in very. Trump f love it.
Donald Trump
There seem to be some people killed that aren't supposed to be killed. These are violent. If you call them leaders. I don't know if they're leaders or just they, they rule through violence. But we're looking at it very seriously. The military is looking at it and we're looking at some very strong options. We'll make a determination. Some of the protesters were killed through the stampeding. I mean, you know, there's so many of them and some were shot. Are we getting a full report? I'm getting an hourly report and we're going to make determination. Don't you think so, cnn don't you think so? Wouldn't you say that they probably do at this point? After going through it for years with me being hit. Soleimani Al Baghdadi, the Iran nuclear threat wiped out, don't you think? And then you just had Venezuela. Don't you think? She says, CNN do you think they take your threat seriously?
Steven Crowder
They do.
Donald Trump
After all of the things we've done. What a stup they do. They called yesterday. Iran called to negotiate yesterday. Yesterday, the leaders of Iran called. They want to negotiate. I think they're tired of being beat up by the United States. Iran wants to negotiate. Yes. We may meet with them. I mean, a meeting is being set up. But. But we may have to act because of what's happening before the meeting.
Steven Crowder
And the funny people on both sides don't understand that that is a brilliant way to frame negotiations. Like, yeah, we might sit, we might talk with them, but I mean, I don't know. We might kill him before it if.
Morgan
They don't worry and rush to the table.
Steven Crowder
Yeah, yeah. I mean, your guess is as good as mine.
Morgan
If you don't get to the table, I might take dinner out.
Steven Crowder
Yeah, it's like, I mean, it's Anybody's guess. Well, sir, isn't it your guess? It's anybody's guess.
Gerald
Anybody's, really.
Steven Crowder
Could be yours. So Trump's. President Trump is very serious about helping Iranians. Some insiders have actually reported that he's ready to ship them protective shields, which. Well, okay, that'll help a little bit, I guess. And even potentially some ground artillery, which I think we should be more practical, putting all the military research dollars.
Gerald
That's true.
Steven Crowder
Also, the secret location of an ancient Persian weapon. Now I get Arabian. It's not Persian.
Gerald
Whatever.
Steven Crowder
I don't care.
Gerald
Close enough.
Steven Crowder
So we kind of walk you through what has happened so far. And then yesterday, the Ayatollah called out Trump on X. It's just so funny to me that these people act like they're real people. He said that father figure who sits there with arrogance and pride. As opposed to the Ayatollah, right?
Gerald
Yeah.
Steven Crowder
As opposed to the Supreme Leader. You arrogant. You arrogant fuck. We'll just call you leader. No, Supreme Leader. Supreme Leader. Supreme Supreme Leader.
Morgan
Yeah, but Trump's still his daddy, apparently.
Steven Crowder
Father figure, that father figure who sits there with arrogance and pride, passing judgment on the entire world. He, too, should know that usually the tyrants and oppressors of the world, such as Pharaoh and Nimrod and Reza Khan and Mohammad Reza and the likes of him, when they were at the peak of their pride, were overthrown. This one, too, will be overthrown. Me. I mean, you.
Morgan
He just listed a bunch of world leaders from only one part of the world. It's like his knowledge of the rest of the world doesn't exist.
Steven Crowder
Like, oh, here's a few key facts for you to know. And we're getting some footage of Lane the Brain went down and spoke with some people on the ground at a solidarity. Not really a protest, I guess, a solidarity march stand in Texas. Key fact one here. There may be outside forces that also have a vested interest, of course. But the Iranian people. Enough of the Iranian people. A significant portion of the Iranian people to the point that you are seeing a revolution. They want this, okay? And this is not really surprising to people who know the history of Iran at all. Let's talk about this current, this Islamic Republic, right? They took power in 1979, okay? Then they instituted a Muslim theocracy with hijab laws. They murdered tens of thousands of their own people. And what's really funny is they talked about the Shah before them, saying he's arrested and executed people. The number was. The estimate is probably about 4,000. The Ayatollah Khamenei did it far more completely silenced, destroyed political opposition, also destroyed Iran's economy, helped finance and conducted worldwide terror attacks. I mean, across the globe. They're the biggest funder of terror across the globe. And here's the libertarians here who are non interventionists. Don't you understand that the people of Iran, they share common ground with you. They don't want their tax dollars going to build nuclear bombs and fighting wars, for example, in Gaza, just like you don't for Ukraine. They have no say in it because if they speak out, well, there's a chance that they get executed. This is one thing that's lost on a lot of people. Here's another claim that you'll kind of see being made is that this is all CIA, that this is all Mossad right now, which you tell me if that passes a sniff test. You don't have people who are willing to die in the streets numbering in the thousands, with more pouring into the streets. That's not typically what you see with a psyop or a covert operation. If you want to talk about the Bay of Pigs or any of these, it doesn't look like this.
Morgan
Yeah, I don't think the CIA or Mossad went in and was like, hey, don't you guys hate the way you've been living the last 35 years?
Donald Trump
Right?
Steven Crowder
Yeah. And aren't you guys all, aren't you guys willing to die en masse just, you know, for us, for the Jews? Here's the truth. The Iranian people, they've wanted the regime gone for a very, very long time. Almost as soon as they came in, pretty much. And this is an exclusive here, Lay in the Brain spoke with some demonstrators this weekend about this exact topic. Hear it straight from them and ask yourself, are all these people paid by outside actors? There's this narrative that I've seen, I don't know if you've seen it, and it's going to be on the left, but also on parts of the right too, that, well, this isn't really led by the Iranian people. This isn't really a bottom up thing. This is Israel, the Israel lobby that wants the Ayatollah out. It is the Jews that have an interest.
Gerald
So it's really.
Steven Crowder
They're the ones pushing all of this.
Iranian Protester
Absolutely not.
Steven Crowder
What would you say if you saw.
Iranian Protester
Absolutely not. I think, excuse my language, that's bullshit. That's absolute bullshit. All these people, look at this, everyone on the streets, millions and millions, thousands of people are on the street. They're getting Killed. The regime is basically opening fire at them right now, and they're not stopping. So this is all from the people of Iran. It has nothing to do with Israel or anyone else. We, the people of Iran, want this regime out. We want our freedom back. We want a democracy.
Donald Trump
The power of Israel in the lobbying is absolutely. We all know that exists.
Steven Crowder
Sure.
Donald Trump
But do the people of Iran want to do this for Israel? Absolutely not. The people have been doing this for 45 years. Israel being there or not being there.
Guest Commentator
Let me tell you the number one fact that that tells you how that is incorrect. The number one world sponsor of terrorism calls the United States the Big Satan and Israel the little Satan. So the little Satan is, you know, as they call it, is doing the bidding. But the big Satan, which. Which is bs, by the way, the biggest bastion of freedom, we're having our 250 year anniversary of the United States. The United States needs to go get these mullahs because they call us the Big Satan. So it's not just Israel. We're, you know, they're. They're fighting proxy wars against us in every one of these countries, and they're trying to kill Americans. And President Trump finally understands going after the head of the snake and making sure that nobody ever calls us Big Satan again.
Steven Crowder
And I know some of you are wondering, yes, I believe Lane the brain got that first lady's number.
Gerald
And I know why. That's your first interview, Lane.
Steven Crowder
And she's, I believe, recently come from Iran, like in the last year or two. So I don't even know if we could say Iranian American, because she's not a citizen. She's a temporary resident, as far as I understand it. Look, and I know you want to take the floor here for a second. This comes down to, let's assume for a second that these people really want their regime gone. Okay, Would that be better for them and would it be better for the United States? I mean, you do need to ask yourself, like, okay, we took out their nuclear refinement facilities, right? And I had a debate about that with Dave Smith. Let's say we didn't. And we lived in a parallel universe where they got to the point of building a nuclear bomb, they continued on this path, you would never see a revolution of the people ever again because they would be completely powerless against us.
Guest Commentator
It.
Steven Crowder
So now that we're on this track, all right, they're not able to carry out some of the threats that they have made, and the people have an opportunity. Do you realize that this could fundamentally change And I know they'll never get it all right, Indy, but I usually apply that to the Arabic. The Muslim world, Persians are quite different. To be clear. This could stabilize that region for at least, let's say a decade, two decades. That changes the entire map geopolitically. And foes that the United States has, have. If Iran is not the biggest funder of terrorism, you don't have the same conflict between Iran and Israel. You don't have the same conflict, by the way, between Iran and Saudi Arabia. That whole area of these Gulf states, it changes in a way that would be beneficial to the world at large. And the only people who stand to benefit, the only people who stand to benefit from it remaining the way it is, is in fact the regime themselves. And I want to point out one thing. I went back and watched documentary this weekend on the 79 Iran Revolution. Then I watched a documentary on Iran and Saudi Arabia and their conflict over the decades. Then I watched a documentary show about seven, eight hours in total on Iran and Israel. And that was uploaded to PBS five months ago. So right before we kind of came to where we are right now. And the one fundamental mistake that you see them all make is they would say, and Israel did this, or Saudi Arabia, which prompted Iran to, we have to swap Iran to the Islamic State regime. Because there is a huge disconnect from the Iranian regime, the policy, how we view Iran and how the people of Iran view their government. It is a much, much wider disconnect, for example, than even Democrats would have with Donald Trump. They don't represent these people at all. Matter of fact, they have a vested interest in killing them. So when you see it that way, make really, really clear these lines. People say, well, I don't want to kill anyone in Iran. Neither do I. Their own regime does. That's the difference. You need to address the regime versus the people. And that would necessitate two different approaches in dealing with Iran. Are you dealing with Iran by giving a pass to the regime, or are you dealing with Iran by having a heart for the Iranian people? That's not to have the discussion and say, is it worth our tax dollars? Should we be involved? But let's not just say Iran as a whole.
Gerald
Yeah. And I mean, you know, the Dave Smiths and those guys who are anti intervention. I understand why, like, Iran poses a very unique challenge for us. We could go in there and we could probably make this thing happen, but it would be very, very costly and difficult. And you never know exactly what you're going to get. But that's what we have now, right? So you've got the revolution that happens from all these college kids, basically these college age young people that just want change because the Shah is too close to the United States. He's repressive. He's making it to where we, you know, 4,000 people, I think, or so were killed, but they had a lot more freedom, but they just didn't like that. And so they went through a revolution and got something worse in the Ayatollah. And they very quickly realized that and started protesting against it. And it's like, yes, it could be messy, but the people of Iran have wanted this forever, right? I mean, as long as this has been in place since 1979, I'm betting in 1981, people were like, all right, this sucks.
Steven Crowder
Okay?
Gerald
This was supposed to be better. And it's not better because they've been talking about this for a long time. And I know it could be messy, but it would be better than what we have right now. And we'll get to why with China and Russia. This matters a lot more to us than most people think. Well, this is an America first thing.
Steven Crowder
The only reason that Iran is not a considered a more formidable foe is because they don't have the ability. But if you were to take, let's say a superpower like China, like Russia, and add on top of that, death to America, the Great Satan, we will eventually wipe them out, I think you'd take it quite seriously. The whole point is that it's probably not in our interest for Iran to get to that point, how we deal with it. That's a discussion to be had. Here's another claim that you'll see made. So I want to disabuse you of some ideas out there that are simply false. And then I think an honest discussion can take place. Claim. I don't know if you have this claim. No. Hit it. All right, thank you. I forgot I was a Mario one. You'll see people saying this is a sayat because Muslims would never burn a mosque. You're seeing mosque burnings. Here's the truth. Muslims have destroyed mosques a lot. A lot, a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot. That was kind of a calling card. All the greats have their calling cards. I mean, if you go back to 79, the Saudi army just destroyed this Grand Mosque in Mecca after it was taken over by Muslim extremists. If you go all the way through 2018, Sunni Muslims destroyed an Ahmadi mosque in Pakistan. You had ISIS Destroying mosques. It would happen all the time between Shia and Sunni Muslims. All the time. They would destroy each other's mosques. It's like biker gangs taking out each other's clubs. They revile each other.
Morgan
I think people in the west have this idea that, that a Muslim would never destroy a mosque. Because we fought a war in the Middle east for 20 years, a global war on terror. And that was one of the things. They used it as like a home base rule. Like, oh, if I'm in the mosque, you can't do anything.
Steven Crowder
Right.
Morgan
And so that's kind of. I think that's where that stereotype comes from. But it's not necessarily an untouchable building.
Steven Crowder
Well, here's another truth. The protesters there are very likely not even Muslim. So this is one thing that's very telling, and I highly recommend you go check out the references. If you look at the percent of the population of Iran that identify as Muslim, now, according to the government census, it's 99.5%. 99.5% of Iran is Muslim. All non government surveys have it less than 50%.
Morgan
Anytime I see a government survey and it's 99, like, oh, they put a 0.5.
Steven Crowder
Right.
Gerald
So that we're like, so it's believable right.
Steven Crowder
Now, that doesn't mean that they're all Christian. But I will say this. The United States, by the numbers, is a significantly more Christian nation than Iran is Muslim.
Gerald
Yeah.
Steven Crowder
So when you say the Iranian people as though the Iranian people are one and the same with the government who are Islamo fascists, how do you reconcile that? If you know that the majority of their country, they don't even identify as Muslim. And by the way, there are, according to unofficial number, at least a million Christians in Iran today, and it's growing. So that's a really big tell. The government saying 99 are Muslim, what does that mean? They want it to be. And they'll kill you if you're not. They'll kill you if you convert.
Gerald
Well, it's basically, they want this. They want to wear the hijabs in public and have all of these Sharia laws in place. It's like, no, actually, they don't. Yeah, less than 50%.
Steven Crowder
They force women to wear hijabs for the same reason. They will publicly execute these protesters without trial. Yeah. And not allow the families to visit.
Gerald
And they're saying that on Wednesday.
Steven Crowder
Yeah.
Gerald
They're going to start rounding up. I don't think I'll talk about that later. But, man, that could be very Brutal.
Steven Crowder
Yeah. Well, here's another key fact is, yeah, you're right. President Trump is motivating the protesters. That is true. There is motivation. They are hoping that the United States comes to their aid. Not exactly how you think, though. So the Iranians, they've been again, like we said, protesting the regime for decades. This round started before Trump went into Venezuela. But his rhetoric, they have said, are making a significant difference. Huge. They feel as though someone is acting as a backstop, especially after taking the nuclear refinement facilities out. That's not something that the Iranian people want their money going toward. We haven't even talked about the economy. I mean, just unbelievable inflation that you couldn't even imagine here. People living in poverty, people with high IQs, by the way, and high levels of education, just not having any economic opportunity. They don't want their money going to build nuclear bombs. So hear it again from the people who are down there who are Iranian here in the United States. Hear them describe it. Why do you think President Trump maybe inspires a little more hope or what is it about his leadership that kind of gives people more confidence that this could be, you know, the time that it actually happened?
Iranian Protester
President Trump is a man of his word. He doesn't, he doesn't back him up. He doesn't stay quiet, he doesn't stay silent. He stays for what's right. Regardless of what the mass media says. The mass media always follows their ideology. And if something doesn't fit their ideology, they won't represent it. We have seen it right now there's, for the last 48 hours, there's been quite a complete blackout in Iran, which means that there is no Internet, there is no communication from Iran to outside world. So they're doing mass, mass massacre in Iran.
Guest Commentator
I think a lot of people realize that President Trump is not to be played around with. We saw what happened in Venezuela. President Trump also went in and took out, took out the nuclear sites that the Islamic Republic so much has that the people Iran have no problem with Israel. The people around are peace loving people. They're not interested in nuclear weapons. They're not interested in, in all the things that these mullahs that have hijacked Iran are doing. And the most important part that this is really happening is because we have the backup of the world. And for the first time in the White House, we have a president who gets it.
Donald Trump
The only message I got is for President Trump and every other political head president, everyone out there, if you're going to say you're going to do something, you better do it. Because if you don't do it, you're endangering the people that are inside the country. And they go out there, they risk their lives and they're hoping that there is some kind of outside help coming in, but it's not. So it has been what, January 3rd, he said it. Yeah, January, yeah, about a week and a half. And people are dying. What else do you need? Go out there if you're going to do it.
Steven Crowder
And here's the thing. I think that the people should plan a revolution where they can carry it out themselves. You shouldn't rely on the United States. But again, that does. That is relevant. The regime change would benefit the United States and yes, by the way, Israel, but it doesn't mean that that's why the people there are supporting it. Let's put this in perspective right now. What's the most oil rich country on earth?
Morgan
Venezuela.
Steven Crowder
Venezuela.
Gerald
Venezuela.
Steven Crowder
Okay, so Venezuela, So that one now, new information to me. Yeah, that one now is high. Stabilize it.
Gerald
Yeah.
Steven Crowder
Okay. And a lot of their oil, we gave you the number. How much was going to China and how much China was investing in Venezuela. That's in our hemisphere. Okay, so that's one that of course we don't know where the chips will fall, but we're on a better track.
Morgan
Same thing with Iran, by the way.
Steven Crowder
Yep, crude oil. We can look at the Islamic Republic. They're the world's largest sponsor of terrorism. Okay, that's gone. If the Islamic Republic falls, China and Russia would lose their biggest partner in the region. Again. China imports 23% of all of its oil from Iran. So you change the game with Venezuelan oil and you change the game with Iranian oil, guess what? You avoid a war with a nation like China going forward. You guys understand this, right? Actions need to. If you just do nothing, that doesn't mean that war never happens. It means that war will happen. It's an inevitability, especially when you're dealing with evil actors, because then they see weakness. They will also. They will always expand, they will always encroach. So putting China on its heels with both Venezuela and Iran as a multi pronged approach, that is incredibly effective. Iran, by the way, is also top supplier of drones to Russia. Yeah, yeah.
Gerald
Now what's going on in Ukraine right now? It's basically a drone war right now. So that would be a massive, massive win for us. And one reason to. Lane actually brought up something. He reached out to one of his friends in China. He went to school there for a Brief period of time. And they're like, you're CIA.
Steven Crowder
Go. Whoa.
Gerald
That's Russian. I don't know.
Steven Crowder
I can't get that Sounded very Chinese. Yeah, very Chinese.
Gerald
Anyway, he reached out to one of his friends, like, hey, what do you. What do you guys think about what's going on in Iran? And they're like, what's going on in Iran? Like, China is completely suppressing this story. So it's obviously a big deal to them that power stays as power is in Iran right now.
Steven Crowder
Right.
Gerald
They want it unchecked. They don't want anybody coming in and messing with any of that stuff, though. I don't think they can do anything about it.
Steven Crowder
Lane is just clarifying they saw his story and reached out out to him, not vice versa. Oh, okay. Yeah. So, okay. Well, it's funny because, by the way, I think it's true that you do have the Israeli government trying to apply leverage to big tech companies sometimes to change the algorithm. That's true. That's a problem. We need to call it out where we see it. But what about the fact that all communications are shut down in Islamic nations anytime there's a little bit of an uprising or protest, Nothing fishy there. Yeah. We have to apply this evenhandedly. Yeah. We should act in our own interests. And Iran, existing as it does, is diametrically opposed to the best interest of the United States. That doesn't mean that we invade, but it does mean that we have a vested interest right now. If you want America first, if you want the steady supply of energy, if you don't want prices subjected to incredible volatility because of instability in that entire region of the world, then you would want to have a different government that is America friendly in Iran. That would be America first.
Gerald
And by the way, let me just lay this out really quickly, because a lot of people will say, no, no, no. We just need to work with this government. Okay, fantastic. I'll take you at your word. In 2009, there was an election, and the Iranian people thought that their votes were stolen, essentially. And so they basically had a million people out in the streets in 2009, protesting and marching and screaming, where is my vote? Okay. The United States did virtually nothing to help. That's, I think, the green revolution, Green movement, whatever they want to call it. We tried to work with the government. That was a key moment where we could have just done a little bit of a hat tip, like Trump has done, and said, hey, be careful. Don't do anything to those protesters over there. If you kill too many protesters, you're gonna, hey, we're considering strong options right now. Trump has always had a, hey, look, I'm gonna go and show these guys that they have a backer without fully committing us to something maybe we don't wanna do.
Steven Crowder
And by the way, the same people saying you should work with their government are the same people who then go, can you believe that George Bush was working with the Saudis? There's no winning with that. You'll look back and you go, wait, why would we. Working with a government that suppressed its own people and executed its own people and violated its own people's human rights. They didn't represent their people. So there's no winning with that. It's just people wanting the Monday morning quarterback.
Morgan
Also, is there no. Is there no moral qualm with help working with the government like that?
Steven Crowder
Exactly.
Morgan
Handing over $6 billion to them that they're going to turn over.
Gerald
Right.
Morgan
To Hezbollah and Hamas and whoever knows.
Steven Crowder
Right? No, that's a very good point. So all of these. It's not just as simple as people go like, ah, yeah, it's the Jews. I guarantee you Israel has a vested interest in Iran not being under the thumb of the Islamic Republic. That doesn't mean that the people can't have a separate interest. They can be. They can be sort of parallel to each other. Right. They can be congruent, but it doesn't mean that they're doing it for the other. Right.
Gerald
The enemy of my enemy, essentially.
Steven Crowder
Right here. Yeah.
Morgan
Yeah.
Steven Crowder
And in that case, it may not even. They might not even be taking that into account. Now, here's a kind of a bonus piece of information. With Iran going on, certainly as far as forced hijabs, right. The women were wearing bikinis back in the day, and now the women live under the Islamic Republic, where they're.
Gerald
They had a lot of.
Steven Crowder
Stripped of their rights. You would think that, especially considering, you know, how they have the Palestine flag and LGBTQ flag and that Donald Trump is a chauvinist and patriarchy and Handmaid's Tale, American feminists would be showing support for the ladies of Iran. Right. But why do you think you're not seeing that support that you might have seen those groups give people like Palestine or when there's other similar situations.
Iranian Protester
That's actually a great question that I don't know the answer to. Like, I don't know why people are quiet. The feminists, everyone who stood with us, who amplified our voices in 2022 for Masa and Meanie, a Lot of them are quiet right now.
Guest Commentator
Where's the mainstream media? Where are these news channels that talk about women's rights? This is a women, women led revolution. This is the first women led revolution in the world. And there's no media. There's no cnn, no BBC, no telegraph, no abc, no Fox News, no C. Where is the mass media?
Iranian Protester
The people that here are trying to represent the oppressed have no clue what oppression is. They've never been oppressed. We've been oppressed by the radical Islamists. They have occupied our country. Now we are trying to take it back. They are trying to allow the radical Islamists or radical anything or socialists to take over other people's country. I have one message for the people of the United States who think that the radical Islamist or the socialist or Hamas is any good. Go spend seven days in Iran, then we talk.
Steven Crowder
By the way, notice the difference in ability for these people to articulate their positions and reasons for protesting compared to ice. Right. And that is, by the way, certainly a litmus test. It's a good bellwether to know whether protesters are organic or they are paid. If it's just you guys are fascists, like, yeah, could you articulate that? She can say, no. No. We've lived under the Islamic rule. We know what it is. We're seeing the media blackout. People don't know what oppression is. We can tell you what oppression is. This is someone who is able to articulate their point because they have thought about it for decades. By the way, I had friends when I was in Montreal. They went to visit family in Iran. They didn't come back. Yeah. So that happens all the time. You can say that we shouldn't be involved, but you can't say that it's a psyop to try and paint this regime in Iran as something that they're not. Now, to be fair, they made a good point that. That there's pretty much a blackout on mainstream media. The BBC, however, did use their pigeon language. Is it pit?
Morgan
It's pigeon.
Gerald
It's pigeon, but it's pigeon.
Morgan
It's like a Polynesian slang.
Steven Crowder
Yeah, I didn't see it. I bet it's not the bird. Well, I was right and you were wrong. Correct.
Gerald
That's true. Yeah. That's fine.
Steven Crowder
I still love you.
Gerald
I'll own it.
Morgan
I understand where you're going from, Gerald. You don't want people thinking that BBC has a network dedicated just to pigeon, crappy city birds.
Steven Crowder
Right? Yeah. Yeah. Then it would just be. It would just be Piers Morgan I mean, maybe that's the Animaniacs.
Morgan
That's a different show.
Steven Crowder
So they haven't really covered it a whole lot on their. But they did on their pidgin language site. This is real. This is what they wrote. Wet in day high pun for Iran Y dumb day protest.
Gerald
That was like your Pacific Islander meets Canadian kind of.
Steven Crowder
So what would you like to see happen here? I think this is an opportunity to have a good discussion. This is where you can have a discussion regarding America's foreign policy if it's based on. On honesty. Obviously the regime of Iran. Bad. Obviously the people are oppressed. Obviously the people are being executed. Obviously the people want an uprising. Do you think it's worth it for the United States to be involved? Do you think that the risk is worth the reward? What kind of a yield do you think we would get from this? Do you think that it would change that map in that region and create some stability that would be meaningful, or do you think it would just be another failure and equate it to regime change? I would say this. Don't compare everything to Iraq. That's one thing people do. They just compare everything to Iraq. Everything to Iraq. Everything to Iraq. That's not the only example that you have throughout history, and especially not with Persia, with a nation that is not historically an Islamic nation. It is not an Arabic nation. They view themselves as very different. They are much more educated, they have higher IQs, and it's a much more secular and also Christian society than the rest of the Arabic world. They know what it can be like in comparison to this.
Gerald
Yeah.
Morgan
I also think that both can be true. I think that the map could change. The. The relationships could change. Everything could change for the better over 10 years, 20 years, whatever the time is. And then eventually it's looked upon as a failure.
Steven Crowder
Yes.
Morgan
Because human nature, I mean, people are going to mess up, someone's going to be corrupted. It never works out perfectly.
Steven Crowder
Right.
Morgan
It's only worked out great here. Yeah. I mean, I mean, it's hard. It's going to end up as a failure regardless.
Steven Crowder
It always depends on the. The.
Morgan
You can spin it that way at least.
Steven Crowder
Yeah. It depends on the ins and out points that you pick. For example, you could look at the United States and go, so, all right, you know, was. It started off as a great place. He had George Washington. We went through it and then. But then you ended up with Joe Biden. So it's a failure.
Morgan
Right. You could.
Steven Crowder
Yeah.
Morgan
Depending on where you look at it.
Steven Crowder
Right.
Morgan
I mean, the War in Afghanistan that we had. You look, you go, you leave Sooner. Could have been looked at as a. I mean, no matter when we left Afghanistan, it's gonna look like a failure, right?
Steven Crowder
Yeah.
Morgan
So, I mean, it was a. It was quite a failure.
Steven Crowder
Well, the withdrawal.
Morgan
The withdrawal method.
Gerald
The graveyard of empires. Yeah, like there's a reason it has that name.
Steven Crowder
Speaking of failure, let's go on to Minnesota and ICE and what's going on. So we went international, now let's go domestic. Couple of things before we get to claims and truths. I really want you to remember, please, this is a public service announcement. Don't run over federal authorities with your car. It increases your chances of living quite a bit.
Guest Commentator
Get you.
Steven Crowder
No matter all the lies, there are the cameras.
Donald Trump
Tell the truth. What's your name?
Steven Crowder
What's your name?
Iranian Protester
I work for wg.
Morgan
I don't know that lady, but I assure you, she sucks. That lady sucks. You go to her house, her kids are eating weird snacks that she made. Car smells weird, there's no dad in sight.
Steven Crowder
Yes, it's fabric seats with a crust on it that will never be identified. Like a strata layer.
Morgan
10 year old kids are eating their boogers. It's a whole thing going on.
Steven Crowder
So why do certain people gravitate towards certain things? You know, Asians to Ivy Leagues, right. Medicine, for example, Dominicans to Major League baseball. And white middle aged liberal women to wailing in the streets and acting completely irrationally and not even in our own self interest. Female, privileged. Yeah, that's the question that we. I don't. Has there ever been a group more privileged than white women in the 21st century? Well, that's the catalyst. Yeah, they.
Morgan
For lack of a better word, they're bored.
Steven Crowder
Yeah.
Morgan
They have nothing to fight against. They need something to fight against. That's why you see them so calmly at the Iranian demonstration.
Steven Crowder
Right.
Morgan
There's so much calmer because they know what a real struggle is like and they're here and they don't have it now.
Steven Crowder
Right.
Morgan
Should ask them. Should ask them. Iranian protesters say, hey, how do you feel about this Minnesota Ice shooting?
Steven Crowder
Yeah, no, exactly. Well, what are you about? Statesman noodle. I was just gonna say their parents should have let them play.
Morgan
Yes.
Steven Crowder
Yes, they should. Although I think it's no contact with ladies. So the backlash to the murder of the mother of three. Renee. Good. I do quotes because, well, it's all a lie. They continued to escalate this weekend. I warn you, some of these clips involve simultaneously verifiably stupid people. And it's tough to take but I want you to hear it straight from the horse's mouth. The deadly ICE shooting of Minneapolis woman Renee Good has sparked massive anti ICE protests in the US over the weekend. Demonstrators assembled near the ICE headquarters in Washington D.C. on Sunday. His immigration crackdown is making communities less safe. The killing of Renee Goode made that abundantly clear. Is the killing of Renee good 37 year old mother with stuffed animals in her glove compartment having dropped off her daughter, her son at School, her 6 year old.
Iranian Protester
Is she.
Steven Crowder
Is this a watershed moment? I think that she may have been a watershed moment.
Donald Trump
This is for her. This is for the people in the United States who are terrorized and scared today. I know I'm one of them.
Steven Crowder
I love this country. Okay. Gay Mark Twain happening is not America's. President Vance even proactively went out to the White House briefing room which means it was on his schedule. They planned for this and spent 35 minutes at the podium smearing Renee Goode's reputation.
Donald Trump
This is not normal anymore.
Steven Crowder
And so I don't know how I.
Donald Trump
How I could be quiet and I'm.
Steven Crowder
Feeling a little sick.
Donald Trump
So it's hard to BS right now.
Steven Crowder
So the police do not have the right to shoot you in the face. Actually they do. Scale of demonstration in Minneapolis is not new as many also showed up to protest against George Floyd killing many of those grassroots activists still on the ground. Never stop. What do you make of these demonstrations now? Attorney General Crump. You know. Well they are necessary.
Gerald
Huh.
Steven Crowder
That is two very stupid people you making this Crump. And he still was caught off guard. It's like two people with severe cerebral palsy or Parkinson's like handing off a drink. Like I'm gonna give it to you. Oh, I gotta take. It's going to get fumbled.
Morgan
It's very funny. That almost makes. It makes me feel like both the characters are being played by Eddie Murphy.
Steven Crowder
Yeah, exactly.
Morgan
One of the guys names is Crump.
Gerald
Taste the soup.
Steven Crowder
I'm not saying it's not because they're. It's not because they're black. Don't make it a thing.
Gerald
Okay.
Steven Crowder
I know that that'll be implied. So the best way to stand. Download the Rumble app. Don't be in the social media ghettos. Download the Rumble app. Follow us there. Because we're long past playing ball for YouTube. We have seen the goal posts move non stop. Which you know, let's just hit a segment of that. And now. So then Adam Schiff. Yes, good old Schiff. He said that good was just A mom dropping her kids off at school. Remember that? It's horrifying to watch and to think about this. Seven year old drops her kid off at school, not involved in protest activity or anything. Seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Well, that brings us to now. None of what he just said was accurate, by the way. And she wasn't just there protesting. She wasn't involved with protesting. She was leading it. She was doing it all day, committing multiple felonies. Here's some new footage that has emerged showing her car parked perpendicular to the street, blocking it, people say, not blocking. Some cars can go by. But you also see that she moves the car to try and more effectively block ICE for more than three minutes. In this one instance, she'd been doing it all day. Not involved in protest.
Gerald
That's her horn, I believe.
Steven Crowder
Here she is honking and dancing, mocking, protesting.
Gerald
And yes, that's a T. Rex.
Steven Crowder
This is the craziest thing. What about disturbing the peace? What about people?
Morgan
People who work?
Gerald
She's about to pull forward a little bit.
Steven Crowder
She's like, ah, she was letting him by. Then she moves back forward to impede the ICE Officer.
Gerald
Oh, there we go.
Steven Crowder
A little more.
Gerald
Just a little more. I can do a little more. Right, right.
Steven Crowder
Yep. I can do a little more. I can. I can make it difficult for people to do their job. And here's something I've heard a lot of people say. You'll see people left to go, oh, so just because she was d. Well, you don't shoot people for dancing in their car. That's not why she was shot. No. Let's walk through this. All right. All day following protesting, screaming, shrieking, impeding officers. Okay, she wasn't shot for dancing. She was shot. Well, they could have done something else. Okay, great. What should they have done? They could have asked her to move. They did.
Gerald
Yeah.
Steven Crowder
All day. Well, they could have tried to take her out of the vehicle. They did. That's when she put it in reverse and then put it in drive and hit an officer. Well, she wasn't a threat right then. It wasn't urgent. They could. Oh, so let her go. So let her go. So let her do it all day and let her go. That's the main. This is why I say it's for the soul of America. What kind of a country do you want to live in where people can impede assault, act unlawfully disturb the peace and just get away with it and later on get a citation? We lived through that. Yeah, that was Minneapolis in The summer of love. That was what New York came to be. With the catch and release and no cash bail. We know what that looks like. This is more of the same. Just let them steal if it's under $999. How about no? How about no officers have no right to shoot you. That's actually not true. Sometimes they do.
Gerald
Sometimes they have an obligation to defend their own lives, to try to go home to their families.
Morgan
That's why they carry firearms.
Steven Crowder
One would argue why not?
Gerald
Weird.
Morgan
For a long time, by the way.
Gerald
If she had not run over this officer, if this officer who looked like he was walking around in front of the car. Right. Maybe add five seconds to this and he's walked around and he's more towards the driver's side door. And she tries to pull away. I doubt those guys would have chased her down. They should, but I doubt they would have.
Morgan
Probably not. Cuz he was already recording and got her license plate number.
Steven Crowder
Yeah, right.
Gerald
Be like, okay, let's get this brought out of the way. If we have to deal with her later, fine. But it's the running over a police officer.
Steven Crowder
Yeah.
Gerald
That needed to be avoided here.
Steven Crowder
Well, and this is the reason that invoking the Insurrection act is more complicated than it should be. It shouldn't be complicated at all. Because historically you haven't had governors and mayors actively fighting the federal government and federal law. Which brings us to then Mayor Jacob Frey. Remember he said that the self defense argument was. And real talk, quote, bullshit. They are already trying to spin this as an action of self defense. Having seen the video of myself, I want to tell everybody directly that is bullshit. Okay, so there was no act of self defense. People were saying, remember that he wasn't hit. Okay, goal post move. Because now it's. Well just. Sure, he. Maybe he was, but it didn't hurt. It wasn't a serious injury. That brings us to. No, I mean the ICE agent walked away.
Gerald
With a hip injury that he might as well have gotten from closing a refrigerator door with his hips.
Steven Crowder
He was not injured.
Gerald
I've seen worse injuries from doing that.
Morgan
Right, so it could be worse.
Gerald
No, he was not ran over. He walked out of there with a.
Steven Crowder
Hop in his step.
Gerald
Why?
Steven Crowder
How many stitches did he have the last time he was dragged by a car? Is that. Is that relevant? So, so in other words, if it doesn't. If you're not injured badly, call us when you're dead, call us when you're maimed.
Gerald
Exactly.
Morgan
I don't want to hear a word about any of the Police officers that took their lives or died of heart attacks or anything else following the events of January 6th ever again from anyone in Minneapolis.
Steven Crowder
There you go.
Morgan
Never again.
Gerald
They didn't have a scratch on them.
Morgan
They walked away.
Gerald
We have no idea. In the middle of this, the second that accelerator is thrust, you have no idea if it's going to be a tiny hip injury, as the mayor there said, or tires running over your. Your sternum and cracking your chest and crushing your skull. You really don't know at that point? Thank God. Shouldn't that thank God that guy wasn't killed?
Steven Crowder
Just like when I had a transgender steal a homeless man's lunchbox and whip it at me. And I changed my mind, Remember? That could have just as easily been a knife, a brick, a gun, a bullet. And the lady next to me goes, you're fine. That's how they view the world. That's why you see them line up one way or the other on Israel, Palestine, and any of these conflicts. It's just. Just who's more effective, who's more successful. They must be the bad guy. The rich, Bad Christians, Are they a majority? Bad. Israel, more effective in war. Bad police officer. ICE officers. They have the ability. Bad. It doesn't matter. The decisions that are made leading up to that. They don't take morality into account. It's oppressor and oppressed. And now you have one group that seems to be the de facto leadership in the Minneapolis revolution. See if you can spot a common thread threat.
Iranian Protester
It's okay.
Steven Crowder
We don't change our plates every morning.
Iranian Protester
Just so you know. It'll be the same plate when you.
Steven Crowder
Come talk to us later. That's fine.

Steven Crowder
You want to come at us?
Iranian Protester
You want to come at us? I say go get yourself some lunch, big boy.
Steven Crowder
Watch the white knighting here. She just assaulted him and he got his camera back. You hit her? I can't believe it.
Gerald
He just stole her mask. That was it. Oh, please. Careful, please.
Steven Crowder
Lesbians.
Gerald
With a pepper ball. I would have loved to see that.
Steven Crowder
I don't want these people to feel like they can act with impunity. This.
Gerald
I'm not.
Steven Crowder
Oh, Then why are you giving her a warning? I'm giving her a warning to not interfere with what we're doing. To not make a bad decision today and ruin your life. Bad decision.
Morgan
Thank you.
Gerald
Funny coming from you.
Steven Crowder
Okay. All righty. Thank you. Have a good day. I hope you have a terrible day.
Iranian Protester
Okay.
Guest Commentator
Thank you.
Morgan
Yeah.
Steven Crowder
And keep in mind who these white liberal women are protecting here's. A list of some of the illegal aliens who've been arrested in Minnesota and some of their charges. Strong arm sodomy, child prostitution, rape of a 12 year old girl, rape and child fondling. Homicide, DUI homicide. Most of them are of course from Somalia, Sudan, places like that. And they were in jail, these people. No, that's a good point. No, no, they're in those old sanctuary cities. Yeah. So these women are willing to. Willing to be out there and protest and assault ICE officers. Let's assume that the ICE officer is a dick. Okay. Is he a child rapist? Cuz that's who he's going after. Who's worse? They won't give you an answer on that. They won't. They'll just say fascism. And this was commented on, by the way, and I do mean white liberal women specifically because they are the only ones with the power as a voting block to transform the fabric of our country. Country as they have. It was commented on pretty tactfully by this person who goes by Ray Valentina. Just watch.
Iranian Protester
Renee. Nicole Good died being a nigger lover. She died because she wanted to protect niggers who would not pass on her if she was on fire. Anybody saying that she didn't try to run him over, you're a N lover. Thank you. My message to white liberals is that these people want you dead. Regardless. It doesn't matter. Give them everything they want. Let them scam. They still hate you. They still hate white people. They hate. You can't feel bad for these people when you have that superiority complex that you're a white woman saving the niggers.
Morgan
Ugh.
Iranian Protester
I have a mission. I have to save the N. The funniest thing is the very people that she was out there and got shot for are making fun of her death. They're not hailing her as a hero.
Donald Trump
Perfect.
Gerald
That's the smallest bleep I've ever heard.
Steven Crowder
Yeah, well, I mean, to be fair, she was black. Needed it anyway. Just think of the people they've lined up to support. Whether it's George Floyd, whether it's Chaz Chop, Michael Brown, I mean, go through. And then now this lady. How do they always get it wrong? Child rapists, sex traffickers, members of gangs. You'd think they'd get one right accidentally. And I will tell you why. For the same reason that you felt this victim. Really, when you watch that montage, they're influenced by evil. Anyone want to watch that shrieking, that completely irrational display of undirected emotion and say that it's anything other than straight from the pill of hell. It is narcissism pathologized and for you. Look, we can't solve all of these issues. I do believe we should invoke the Insurrection Act. I'm going to make the case here in just a minute.

Episode Title: Minnesota ICE Riots Reach Tipping Point – And The Group Pushing It Is Exactly Who You Expect
Air Date: January 12, 2026
Host: Steven Crowder with co-hosts Gerald, Morgan, and various guest commentators
In this episode, Steven Crowder and his team tackle two major topics: the escalating protests (and riots) in Iran and Minnesota. The discussion centers on contrasting the genuine, life-risking activism of Iranian protesters seeking to overthrow their theocratic regime with the perceived privileged outrage of American liberal activists, particularly in Minnesota after an ICE shooting. Crowder also explores the media narratives, political responses, and broader geopolitical implications, riffing with his signature irreverence and political incorrectness.
The show further critiques the seeming hypocrisy of Western activists, discusses the potential invocation of the Insurrection Act, and dissects the integrity of "trad con" (traditional conservative) female public figures.

The tone is brash, sarcastic, and unapologetically right-wing. Crowder and his team blend political analysis with dark humor, mockery of opponents, and pointed questions about media and activist motives. The language is combative, emotionally charged, and intentionally provocative.
This episode of Louder with Crowder offers a blend of on-the-ground reporting, hard-edged opinions, and heated social critique. Core themes include skepticism toward media narratives, defense of law enforcement, support for regime change in Iran, and a critical eye toward Western activism. Crowder positions himself and his audience as defenders of reality in the face of what he sees as progressive delusion and media hypocrisy. The discussion ends with an emphatic call for stronger law-and-order measures at home.
For listeners seeking a blunt, confrontational perspective on current events with colorful asides and adversarial banter, this episode encapsulates Crowder’s style and ideological stance.
