[A]

Listen whenever you want, Apple, podcast, Spotify, wherever you get your shows, just search Nightly scroll with Haley and you will find me and we'll have some fun. So let's get into tonight's show because George Soros and others other liberal boogeyman types, they are funding the resistance in D.C. of course, and the protesters are doing their darndest with pots and pans and ham sandwiches. Then Chris Cuomo is throwing shade at the king of podcasting, Joe Rogan, saying he won't be relevant in a year from now. Mirror, mirror on the wall. In today's episode of liberals crying on the Internet, I found a licensed therapist crashing out over her emotional support. Starbucks drink. I'm serious. Seriously. All right. All that and so much more on this episode of Nightly Scroll. As we know, President Trump deployed National Guard troops to assist in cleaning up Washington D.C. this week. And this is about this is going to be a whole bigger, larger effort to clean up all Democrat run blue cities, right? So he sent about 800 National Guard troops. They are going to be tasked with removing homeless people and fighting crime, crime that we were told doesn't exist. However, we have found out since that the statistics were fudged a little bit. Of course, not only that, but apparently residents in high crime areas of D.C. are so fed up with crime that they don't report it anymore. So NPR reporter Frank Langfit, he took to the streets in Washington, D.C. first, he interviewed a bunch of people in like a gentrified area, a bunch of white libs. And of course they have a big issue with President Trump and what he's doing there to clean up crime. They say there's no crime. Then this NPR reporter goes to high Crime areas, it's a different story. Listen to this. So, Frank, you started in a busy, gentrifying neighborhood. Where'd you go next?

[B]

So I get on the Metro and I went across the Anacostia river to Congress Heights. This is among the poorest areas of the city. Vast majority of the population is black. And also the D.C. police say this is part of an area with among the highest violent crime rates in the city. But unlike U Street, people in Congress Heights said crime is a really big problem there. Shootings, robbery, burglaries. In fact, some say crime is worse than the statistics show because many say have given up reporting to police because they feel a lot of crimes go unpunished.

[A]

So what does that neighborhood sense then, or at least the people you talk to about the president's move?

[B]

Well, you know, there was a general sense that any greater armed presence would be a good thing. I was talking to a woman named Alicia Cooper. She works in property management in that area. And she also kind of likes the idea of federal oversight of police.

[A]

The positive is a sense of security. Residents, at the end of the day, they can feel secure that they know that there is a higher level of chain command that is monitoring, you know, what's going on. I just want to also note that she knows what chain of command means. Meanwhile, the DEI hire in the D.C. police Chief Pamela Smith. She did not. Just a callback from earlier this week when we played that video. All this goes to show that the white liberals, the bleeding heart liberals, they will just protest literally anything they get mad at anything. You know, these NPC memes about them just caring about the. The current thing. Art imitates life, whether it's Ukraine or whatever. I mean, insert cause here. They'll make signs, they'll stomp their feet, they'll make Instagram infographics until something shiny and new catches their attention. Over here. That is their mindset. We saw in recent years, Occupy Wall street, the Green New Deal, a bunch of climate protests. Of course, in 2020, Black lives matter. Follow the science. My body, my choice. Take down Tesla. No kings. Now they're literally fighting the Trump administration, moving homeless people out of the nation's capital. Liberals will not admit this out loud because it doesn't fit their narrative, but nobody, and I mean nobody, wants a homeless person sleeping on their stoop. You could be the most caring, the most bleeding heart liberal. If you are especially a young women, a young woman, you. You are afraid of homeless people. You just are not that they're all inherently bad. They may be Harmless, but you don't know what you're going to get. Is this going to be a homeless person that minds their business, maybe? Or is this going to be a homeless person that's on drugs, spits on you, assaults you, exposes themselves to you? I mean, these are all things that I've experienced in New York City. I've been spat on. I mean, it's just disgusting. So liberals need to stop lying to themselves about this. Nobody wants to live amongst homeless people. Everyone wants to find a humane solution, right? So this administration steps in and the left has a full on meltdown right on cue. Be so for real. This is about your Trump hatred. This is about all of the buzzwords that you heard on social media. It's not about the problem at hand. If libs were honest with themselves, they would admit that they'd feel safer with more police and less homeless drug addicts on the streets. But don't take D.C. residents words for it. This protester traveled a long way to get involved in on the action and drove to D.C. himself. Watch. I'm leaving my kids, my family, my house, my job, my cat and everything else just to drive to D.C. right now. I am driving from Michigan to Washington D.C. because pedo 47 is a piece of shit and I'm gonna stick up for my fellow citizens. So you maga. I'm on my way to dc. Oh, I'm scared.

[C]

My first thought was, I hope he stops at a BUC EE's. You know, just maybe that could defuse him a little bit.

[A]

That'll get to know the crowd, ease him into the MAGA lifestyle.

[C]

Or a cracker barrel. Hop in.

[A]

Someone in the chat just asked, do these liberals actually have jobs Again? He is leaving his job, he is leaving his family, he is leaving his wife, his kids, his cat. If this was my husband, I would say, when you get to dc, why don't you look for apartments? Why don't you let me know what your new address is and I will ship the divorce papers there. You let me know where you're going to end up because you're not coming home with me. That is embarrassing, truly embarrassing. And the way that he thinks that he's so macho. He thinks that he's. Well, I saw what was happening and I just had to drive there from Michigan to do something about it. What are you going to do about it? Genuinely, what is he going to do when he gets to dc? He is not a victim because he's quite literally not a resident of D.C. so he doesn't know what's going on. He's never experienced D.C. crime. He's not from there. He is not a victim, but he has to make himself one. They have to get involved. If something's happening, they all. It's like a moth to a flame. They have to get involved. They have to go protest. And it makes you wonder what is motivating these people who are not affected by DC crime in the slightest to get involved. Well, this is part of a larger effort, of course, like all liberal protests, to make money. And of course, none other than George Soros is behind it. Here's this headline out of the New York Post earlier today. Left wing dark money mega donors, including George Soros, contribute 20 million to groups funding protests against Trump's D.C. crime crackdown. This is what the article says. Several lefty dark money organizations, including George Soros's, contributed more than 20 million to these groups funding these protests all over D.C. which one of them is called Free D.C. it is what they call a fiscally sponsored special project. They're special, all right. And anyway, so they're deploying 150 demonstrators all around D.C. by the White House to protest this. So they're being paid. They're being paid and they're being told to don't obey, take up space and go outside at 8pm and bang pots and pans, sing, chant or make noise for five minutes every night of this occupation. They're calling it an occupation. These people are devoid of reality. They're just. What are you occupying?

[C]

I just thinking about getting here. We're talking about the, you know, the Saturday Night Live skit. The more cowbell, like, that guy's just sitting outside banging pots and pans and playing the cowbell. For what?

[A]

They're just shouting into the ether. No one's listening. They're not stopping anything. They're not stopping the National Guard. They're not stopping the Trump administration. They're doing this for no reason. Liberal protesters are not serious human beings, and we cannot take them serious. We have to just laugh at them. So here's exhibit A of these idiots booing law enforcement, making noise, as they were told by George Soros and company. Here's a real cop. He has a badge, has insignia, and.

[C]

He has his name on his chest.

[A]

That's a real cop. No, they're gonna start booing. Ooh. Okay, okay. You really showed them. These cops are scared. They're scared and they're gonna not do their jobs. They're not. They're not going to do as the Trump administration told them to do. They're gonna bow down. But to all of you booing at them, sure. And if you didn't believe me about the pots and pans, here's a graphic, an infographic from Instagram. Trump's fascist takeover of DC Is a serious escalation of fascist control of the country and the Capitol in D.C. and everywhere. Wednesday, 6pm Bring the noise. Demand. Trump must go bring whistles, pots and pans, noisemakers. And this is from what? Refuse fascism.org literally bring whistles, pots and pans, and noise makers. Wild. And I know we've all seen this video of the Subway sandwich thrower. The, the subway slinger. I'm not going to say his name, but we'll, we'll play the video of the subway slinger. The sandwich slinger. You know, he's getting in the faces of, he's getting in the faces of these agents and these National Guardsmen, and he's just, he's getting in there, he's getting in their faces. He's, you know, he, he had a Subway sandwich in his hand and throws it at the National Guardsman or, or the agent. Do we have the video of that? Let's play it. So here he is, just horrible form, by the way. Just like girly, of course, throws. First of all, if we're throwing a sandwich, you're a girl. He runs like a girl. His form is embarrassing. It's giving me the ick. I mean, look at. First of all, what would compel you to throw a sandwich at a police officer? I don't know, but the way that he's running, I mean, look at his arms flailing. This is a liberal man, and liberal men apparently are not toxically masculine. But I would say this is toxic masc. Toxic effeminate masculinity.

[C]

I have so many questions about this because, like, I start with one. Do you go into the subway thinking that you're buying a footlong to throw at a cop, or do you think that he was just being that big of a baby once the argument started, that he just sort of lashed out like a six year old and decided to throw his dinner at the police officer?

[A]

I think he decided to throw his dinner at the police officer. His emotions got the best of him. But, yeah, good point. I mean, if I'm hungry and this is dinner time, nothing is getting between me and my, my sandwich.

[C]

I agree. Personally, I agree. Which makes, which brings up the next question, right? What sandwich is worth throwing? Like, if I'm like, you know, hey.

[A]

If this is maybe if they got your order wrong.

[C]

Yeah, you know, but I mean, if I've ordered a meatball sub, I don't know that I'm, I'm willing to, I'm willing to get rid of that. I'm going to part ways with that.

[A]

This just goes to show how mentally ill these people really are, because why wouldn't you just eat your sandwich instead of throwing it at someone? And apparently this guy was a DOJ employee taking it out on law enforcement. So he's. This is an inside job. So let's throw up. Attorney General Pam Bondi's post on X here. She explained that they're not going to let him get away with this. Someone in the chat just said, were they big balls? Maybe they're talking about your meatball sub. I don't know. The meatball sub there, Subway is worth throwing, not eating. Someone said, I don't know, maybe he ordered a torpedo sandwich. Someone said, someone else. Are they trying to sell us on Trump again? They can't make Trump look any cooler and they can't make him look better. I mean, he's just doing a great job and we love all this. Okay, so here's what Attorney General Pam Bondi said. If you touch any law enforcement officer, we will come after you. I just learned that this defendant worked at the Department of Justice. No longer. Not only is he fired, he has been charged with a felony. This is an example of the deep state we have been up against for seven months as we work to refocus doj. You will not work in this administration while disrespecting our government and law enforcement. So I guess he can maybe get a job at Subway.

[C]

Great idea.

[A]

He needs work and maybe he can make it up to them. But. But liberals think, you know, anyone who is protesting the Trump administration right now. They genuinely think that they are fighting an authoritarian government with whistles, pots, pans and sandwiches. They are clowns in every sense of the word. You cannot fight your government with baloney and Swiss. This is why people with more than two brain cells understand why the Second Amendment is. Is important. Because if there ever comes a day where we do have a dictator in office, where the government does become too powerful. Powerful. I don't want to be bringing a 12 inch classic Italian sub on a sesame roll to a gunfight. That's not going to help you. These are the same people that want to pass legislation to disarm American citizens. They want to push gun buyback programs. They don't understand that the Second Amendment ensures that when you do have to rise up against your government, you can do that because you have weapons to resist and fight back. But the left doesn't have weapons and they don't believe in guns. So they show up with party whistles from a sixth grade birthday party. They show up with noisemakers like that they had in their, their drawer, their junk drawer from New Year's Eve. This is what they're showing up to fight the government with.

[C]

You know, if they really wanted to clear the place out, what they should do is bring that congressman that writes his songs and plays the guitar.

[A]

Who's that?

[C]

Yeah, we've had him on the show. You know, they should bring him down and let him play a few songs. I mean, 15 seconds. I mean, everybody's gone. Yeah, totally gone.

[A]

Yeah. I mean, it's really kind of sad that they do believe this is a legitimate resistance movement. They're really just out here doing absolutely nothing. All right, I want to take a quick break to tell you about. Oh, this guy.

[C]

Yeah, 15 seconds of listening to this guy and I mean, you're going to have crickets in the streets. I mean, it's just, he's that.

[A]

No, I'm not so sure. I think rubber bullets and tear gas is much better and much more effective. So I'm going to say use that.

[C]

Come down and play for us and everybody else. Everybody's out of there.

[A]

I don't know. I'm on Team Tear Gas. Also want to tell you about our friends at Fatty 15. As I've been, you know, working out in the gym, I don't want my joints to feel badly. I want to feel good.

It reminded me of the girl that we covered who drove all the way to Alligator Alcatraz to resist that and.

[C]

Sort of created the J.J. abrams mystery about what was going on right down.

[A]

There when he was posting the cryptic messages and stuff. But yeah, this next story reminded me of that because her little stunt didn't work. Not only is Alligator Alcatraz still up and running, Governor DeSantis is expanding these efforts with a brand new detention center, and it is called Deportation Depot. So they're sticking with the alliteration, the, you know, trendy, catchy name. But Florida is going to open a second state run immigration detention center. It's actually an empty prison that is just west of Jacksonville. So Governor DeSantis announced this earlier today, and they're going to keep cracking down on illegal immigration. This is the Florida Department of Corrections. They, you know, they close this facility west of Jacksonville, but it can house 1300 detainees. So they're going to use this empty jail. And this was all part of a effort to just consolidate the prison system in Florida. But they have this empty facility and with all these illegal immigration, illegal immigrants, they, they have plenty of illegal immigrants. They need more room for them. So I love it. I absolutely love it. There is a need for this, the increase in capacity at detention centers, the need for new ICE agents. You know, liberals get pissed off by this, but you can thank Joe Biden for that. He's the one that let them all in. And now the Trump administration is just cleaning up his mess. And if DHS needs more ICE agents and Florida has the need for 1300 more spots for detainees, you can thank Joe Biden for that. That's his fault. You know, and the left is always melting down about something. It's either fake fascism, deportations, and of course, the manosphere. So here is failed CNN host Chris Cuomo, former CNN host throwing shade at Joe Rogan. Now that he's in the podcast sphere himself, he's probably feeling a little insecure amid the king of podcasting, Joe Rogan. So listen to this.

[D]

My big prediction is that Rogan's success is admirable. I do not believe he'll be where he was three months ago, a year from today. There are too many talented people entering that space now who want his real estate, and they're going to be better at what he does than he is. So I think that, yeah, but, you.

[A]

Know, I got to be honest.

[D]

He's going to see attrition.

[C]

That's not, that's not the first some time someone said that about Joe. He does surpass expectations, like people wrote his obituary many, many times, and it's just never come true.

[D]

I'll listen. I don't necessarily want it to come true because I don't, I don't find him offensive or anything. I see him as innocuous. But he's getting criticism. He never got criticism before. The media is taking him seriously now, and that's not going to go well.

[A]

For him, first of all, Tim Dillon is a national treasure. I absolutely love him. Of course he's going to stand up for his friend Joe Rogan, but Chris Cuomo is just spewing crap in that clip. I mean, he's saying that no one's going to care about Joe Rogan. No one's ever tried to cancel Joe Rogan before. Where. What universe are you living in?

[C]

Yeah, and he's making comments. Oh, well, you know. Oh, Joe, he hasn't. He's admirable. He's. The guy's got the biggest podcast in the history of the planet.

[E]

And he.

[C]

Joe is a. Joe is a good interviewer. He's got this Larry King, back when Stern was good. Joe does a really, really good job of, of interviewing people. Much better than what's on his show.

[A]

Yeah, totally. And it's, it's interesting because the left is always. They're create. They're always creating problems. They're creating problems, you know, like I said, with the fake fascism and all this stuff. And they've really created this boogeyman of the manosphere. No, the left coined the term manosphere. No one on the right made that up. They called Joe Rogan and Theo Vaughn all these bro podcasts. They. No one was calling these bro podcasts. A collective political force of nature until the libs named them that. And yes, President Trump went on Theo Vaughan's podcast and Joe Rogan's podcast, and the left keeps saying, we need a Joe Rogan for the left. Stop being Trump deranged losers. For starters, Theo Vaughn's podcast is not political. It worked for President Trump because they have personalities outside of politics. It was a moment for them to. Or not for Theo Vaughn, but for President Trump to kind of like, let his hair down, loosen his tie, be normal and be fun, be personable. But he could do that because he has a personality. Again, Joe Rogan's podcast, also not political, in my opinion. Yes, he interviews politicians. He'll ask them tough questions here and there, but he also has fun with them, too. They can shoot the shit and talk about UFC or comedy or aliens or drugs, whatever they're talking about. And I honestly, I don't even like using the term manosphere because it's so cringe. But the reason these manosphere podcasts are so popular is because they're normal. People crave normalcy. And people don't turn to the Chris Cuomo's of the world for normalcy. He doesn't give them that.

[C]

A great, A great, like, little sub Point there too is that all the left could have gone on each one of those shows, like Bernie was on Joe Rogan not too long ago and Kamala could have gone on there. It's not that, like Joe Rogan has a problem talking about their side of the, of the lawn via politics. They're boring, dull people.

[A]

And they don't really, I mean, they have, the left has celebrities who have podcasts. They have like the Dax Shepherds and.

[C]

And others who have Smartless with Bateman.

[A]

Right.

[C]

And all of them. Yeah.

[A]

So it's like, why didn't Kamala Harris go on their podcasts? I just don't get that, like, you know, and I don't. Maybe you can tell me this. I don't really know the demographics of who watches the Joe Rogan show. I'm assuming now the Joe Rogan experience is mostly MAGA people and then just people who don't get offended, like middle of the road independent thinker types that aren't, you know, Trump haters.

[C]

Well, Rogan's, Rogan's, you know, audience is almost ubiquitous because of its clippability. I mean, there are people that clip that and it's all over, all over social and in everyone's algorithm. I mean, you know, so like, I don't really know who his target audience is, but I would say 18 to 35 year old men or who tune in to check out, you know, Joe Rogan and maybe, maybe a tick older. But like the stuff that he talks about is all over the place too. I mean, it's, it's more about like Anna Paulina Luna is on there talking about aliens the first 30 minutes.

[A]

I also feel like Theo Vaughn, I mean, it's not a political podcast. Maybe before, for his Trump interview he would have liberals, but I feel like the OVAN is very Republican coded.

[C]

I mean, Theo, I, I agree, I agree. But even that's a little bit of facade. And I mean, just because you have Trump on and you're willing to have a good conversation with somebody that's on the right, that all of a sudden puts things in a box for you as a label.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

I mean, Theo Vaughn would sit down and have a conversation with anyone if they're interesting.

[A]

Right.

[C]

And that's the problem, is that they're not feeding people that are interesting.

[A]

Totally. No, totally. Yeah. So anyway, they're just melting down over the manosphere. Meanwhile, I have to talk about this because this is near and dear to my heart is bna Nashville International Airport. So they have ended a DEI program for vendors in accordance with President Trump's executive order ending DEI bs. So the Metropolitan Nashville Airport Authority is ending this program for small minority and women owned business enterprises, basically giving these specific businesses more access to be vendors in the airport, if that makes sense. Like if you're going to get food in the airport, it would be a woman owned restaurant or the newsstand is owned by is black owned or whatever, which, who cares. But according to this press release, this is all because it's all stemming From Executive Order 14173, which is an updated grant requirement from the U.S. department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation Administration, which is prohibit prohibiting race and gender based preferences in federally funded programs. So this all makes sense to me. And you know, the airport says that it'll launch some other kind of initiative to help small businesses and things like that, but it's going to be equitable. They love these words, but equitable participation, open competition, transparent access for all vendors. So doesn't matter if you're a woman, a man, white, black, doesn't matter. You're all going to have equal opportunity, which is how it should be. But one black business owner who has a vendor in the airport, he says the airports are no longer going to be diverse if not for the government forcing it. So listen to this. It's going to be a dull place without diversity.

[E]

For more than 70 years, David sweats family restaurant has served soul food in North Nashville. For the last two decades, Sweats has had a front row seat at Nashville's international airport.

[A]

We get all new customers every week.

[E]

The airport first invited Swiss in long before DEI was a national buzzword. Now, with federal regulations forcing BNA to scrap its small minority and woman owned business program, he admits the future is uncertain.

[C]

We're just flying in the darkness with a blindfold on.

[E]

Airports Authority board VP Stacey Nickens says the change comes directly from an executive order by President Trump which prohibits race or gender based preferences in federally funded contracts. She says this was not a local decision.

[A]

What's interesting is, you know, I've flown out of BNA many a time as you have. I've never seen Sweats barbecue.

[C]

I'm just thinking the exact same thing. And I've also never seen that place dull. There is live music at the BNA airport at 4, 15 different places all day, 8am and you can listen to the dance by somebody, the Garth Brook song by somebody covering it, and then walk to the next gate and there's somebody covering it there too. It's music all. It's never dull Right.

[A]

So he got this, I guess this spot, you know, this vendor spot for his restaurant in the airport a few years ago. And I guess like, is business not good unless you, the government gives you the opportunity? I mean, clearly his business was good enough. He was doing enough business to be on their radar. Unless he only got in there because he was black. I have no idea. But I have never in my life thought to myself, especially at an airport, who owns this restaurant and what color are they? What do they have going on in their underpants? I've never thought that in my life. I've just, I've never seen a sign on a window that says woman owned business or black owned business. And then I'm like, oh great, I can enjoy my meal now because I'm doing something good. Like real normal people do not think about things like that. I have never in my life thought, I hope I'm supporting a woman owned business right now.

[C]

I think everybody that goes through B and A or any airport is, can I have some decent food and fast Because I need to get where I'm going fast.

[A]

And why is my bottle of water $8?

[C]

Yeah, you got me there.

[A]

Yes. Like that's the only thing that people are thinking of. This is just totally absurd. So I just have to share that because I thought it was funny that he said it's going to be a dull place, it's going to not be diverse. I mean, hey, if you can do business in the airport, I don't care what you look like, I don't care who you are.

[C]

100%.

[A]

I've never thought about it. I've never ever someone in the chat said never occurs to a normal person. Agreed? Agreed. All right, this next story is really kind of odd. Andy sent this story to me. So if you don't like it, you can blame Andy.

[C]

I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe that this was a real, a real thing.

[A]

Well, apparently adults in China who are stressed out are using pacifiers. They use a little paci because it makes them feel a sense of safety from childhood. And here's what the article says. When the going gets tough, the tough pop in a pacifier. Surprising new stress busting move. Thousands of young adults in China are making swapping melatonin and meditation for an adult sized binky. And this is apparently being sold in China as, you know, like a sleep aid. This is, it's, it's like their version of a stress ball or, you know, taking melatonin before bed. They are soothing themselves, self soothing. With a pacifier. But these are grown adults. Very odd. And someone, they interviewed someone in the article and they said, when I'm under pressure at work, I feel a sense of safety from childhood. I have to say, if I ever saw you or anyone else that we work with with a pacifier in, I would call the police.

[C]

Just kick me in the back of the head.

[A]

Straight to jail. That's so odd.

[C]

Kick me in the back of the head. And who remember? Who remembers? I mean, the, the article was. I just remember the nostalgia of being comfortable when I was a kid and with a pacifier. I have no memories.

[A]

Me neither.

[C]

Of ever having a pacifier.

[A]

Me neither. And whatever. I guess it's become so socially acceptable and normalized there that it's become a trend. But how does this start? Like, how does this become a trend? Someone is stressed out and they what? This is like an adult who has a baby and they thought, let me put my baby's pacifier in my mouth. Gross. Or you're a grown adult with no kids and you're buying a pacifier. Also weird.

[C]

I can't, yeah, this. I, I just couldn't believe it. I, I, I just couldn't believe it. But now, you know what if we see somebody in a pacifier, walk up to a National Guard troop and throw.

[A]

A sub sandwich at him, Just give him a pacifier. You know those, like, Snickers commercials where it's like, you're not yourself when you're hungry. Have a Snickers. It's like you're feeling a little stressed.

[C]

Here's a. Yeah, he probably should have, you know, if he did take a couple of bites out of that sub, he's going to save himself some court cost.

[A]

Yeah, good point. Just calling back to that. If he had eaten his dinner, he would have had nothing. I mean, maybe he would have thrown a punch instead of a sandwich.

[C]

That been worse.

[A]

I know it would have been. I mean, is it really worse?

[C]

Well, maybe he would have.

[A]

Assaulting a police officer. Either way, if he ate a foot.

[C]

Long, maybe he'd have just had that carb load hit and he'd have just had to just set down. You know what I mean? After you eat a lot of carbs, you just sort of fatigue out. Maybe he wouldn't have been in that. Point is, eat first. You know, don't do anything hanging.

[A]

See, if maybe you were just feeling a little hungry, a little hangry, and, you know, maybe he would have been in control of his emotions and he wouldn't have needed to throw this.

[C]

Exactly.

[A]

He wouldn't have had a sub. A Subway sandwich to throw at the cops.

[C]

Exactly.

[A]

Yeah. I think he was maybe feeling a little upset. Maybe next time try a pacifier. All right, let's get into some scrolling time. So this first story is. It actually kind of ties in with the last adult pacifier story because this is a therapist. I'm serious. This is a therapist who had a meltdown over Starbucks. Watch this.

[F]

I know it's really dumb, but I just went to two different Starbucks.

[A]

Hi, welcome to Starbucks. Let me get started for you today. Hi there.

[F]

Do you guys have the summer Berry still?

[A]

We don't. I'm sorry. Please. I'm just desperate to find it. Yeah, everyone is supposed to technically, like, be out of it by now.

[F]

And I just had the worst day. I really want my emotional support drink. I got laid off a month ago, but they gave me 30 days notice so that I could keep working, which I really appreciated because I needed the income that my last day is on Friday, and I'm having to go to work every day this week at a job that I'm already laid off from. I worked at this place for five years. It's just a small thing, but I was just gonna comfort myself today. I don't drink. I'm sober, so I don't. You know, I don't go to the bar when I don't feel good. I go to Starbucks. And it just feels like we should get some warning when something's gonna be disappearing because some of us depend on it. And then they were asking me, do you want anything else? They were like, we still have the popping Boba. We could put it in something else. But I don't want it in something else. I only want it in the limit in the. In the summer Berry.

[A]

Okay, quick, quick disclaimer. I am trying not to be super rude or insensitive because obviously this woman is going through something very serious and she's obviously struggling. So I feel bad that she's lost her job, but when I went to her profile to see what job she had, she is a licensed clinical social worker and a trauma specialist. So people hire her when they're in emotional distress. You're supposed to turn to that lady when you don't know how to handle your emotions. If you are an adult filming your crash out over a discontinued seasonal Starbucks menu item, you should seek help. You shouldn't be the help. Which makes sense as to why maybe she lost her job. I also love how she was complaining about going to work, even though she was laid off. They gave her 30 days, but she was getting paid. And she was like, I don't understand why I have to go to work. Well, then she was also grateful that she was getting paid. It's like, right, well, you're getting paid because you're going to work.

[C]

Well, later on.

[A]

What's not clicking, Stephen?

[C]

She. She's on her way to another Starbucks. That's just.

[A]

You know, she tried to.

[C]

So, like, I mean, she said she didn't drink, but earlier in the chat, they were talking about, you know, making martinis. She needs to sip something slow and relax because, like, she is not. She don't need to be driving a car.

[A]

Well, she also said, I don't go to bars. Like, I'm sober. I don't go to bars when I feel sad, I go to Starbucks. Okay. I'm just saying, if this was your therapist, you are cooked.

[C]

What therapist would tell you to film yourself in that situation? That's the thing. Like, why do you feel the need to film that and post it and think that that's mentally healthy? That's that. And that's probably why I hate that she got laid off or whatever. But, like, I mean, could that play into it?

[A]

Yeah. Also, you know, she's a therapist, a trauma therapist. And she's like, well, I'm sober, so I don't go to the bar when I feel sad. Is she telling people who aren't sober to do that? She thinks that that's an actual way to cope with your problems. That's also very concerning. Praying for her. Okay, this next one, I actually have, what, four animal videos. I have gotten requests because I do the cat videos a lot. I'm impartial, but I have dog videos, I have cat videos, and then we have some blind reactions, and I'm answering your questions. So this next part of the show is no more crying liberals. This is all. This is all should be fun. So this first one is a dog who. He really wants this bacon, but he can't get to it. So there is a. Some sizzling bacon. A video of some sizzling bacon on an iPad. And this little Chihuahua is. He's trying to get to it. He can't. He hears the sizzling. He can almost smell it, but he can't. He can't get to it. I think that's cute. I thought it was cute. You know, some people, like, give their dogs or their cats videos to watch on the TV or their iPad when they leave the house. Do you guys do that with your pets? No, guys just gave the thumbs up. You give.

[G]

So my cat, Jammy and peanut. Cat YouTube. Yeah, Cat YouTube is Bush of birds and squirrels. And my cats watch it and they're just entranced and then they jump on the. We have a projector, not a tv. They jump on the wall and try to catch the birds. It's pretty great.

[A]

Wow. I've never tried to put Birdie in front of the TV or a screen. I have a phone addiction, but I don't want to give one to Birdie.

[C]

How long do you let that poor animal lick the iPad?

[A]

Watch TikTok together. What'd you say?

[C]

I said, how long do you let that poor animal lick the iPad?

[A]

I know.

[C]

I mean, how long?

[A]

Well, as long as it takes to get a one minute video and then you can make money off of Tick tock. That's what that. If you have a video over a minute, you can monetize on social media. So that's probably what they were doing. This next one, though, I can identify with this because Birdie is also very food motivated and she takes food that I'm cooking and things like that. So here's, here's a cat that is very territorial over some raw chicken. Watch. You need to let that go right now. So we're gonna try the oven mitt approach the cat, the kitten is growling with this raw piece of meat hanging from its mouth. Putting up a good fight, I would say, too.

[H]

What the is the matter with you?

[A]

Look at the cat hanging on to her arm. Birdie has eaten raw chicken off of. She has taken raw chicken off of my counter before I put raw meat on the counter, ran into, you know, wash my hands or something. And she's up on the counter, grabbed the raw meat. She's running around the apartment like I have identified with this woman before, you.

[C]

Know, my dog this weekend I woke up and made some orange Danish rolls, you know, those Pillsbury orange rolls. And then I had a couple sitting outside with my coffee. And then when I went, we have two dogs. When I went to let the second dog outside, gone. Dog one gone. Two cinnamon or two orange rolls, gone.

[A]

My friend told me this story once. Well, I guess I'll, I'll, I'll tell the pizza story when we get to the. The last video, but this next one, a lot of these PETA people, they were upset with this one. Watch. Just a piece of Kraft American cheese on the cat's head. And the cat is wondering what. Who turned out the lights and why does it smell like cheese in here? See, I don't get offended by this because the cheese is not hurting the cat. The cat is fine. The cat's a little confused, but the cat is going to be okay. But when you go to the comment section of this video, I mean, people are really triggered. And you know, this was part of a larger social media trend. People were putting cheese on their babies heads. And then the parent police there in the comment section saying, how dare you. This is child abuse. And it's literally a piece of cheese. They're going to be okay.

[C]

They were just throwing cheese on their kids foreheads. Yeah, I mean, just, just for the fun of it.

[A]

I don't recommend it, but the kid's going to be okay. I'm not going to call CPS on them.

[C]

You know, it's going to be fun when the kid's 25 and he's looking back at it, you know, in his scrapbook and be like, you know, here's where mom do a threw a piece of cheese at my fork.

[A]

The kids like, you know, 20 years old, he's opening a packet of Kraft, Kraft American cheese. And he's just getting like war flashbacks. He's like, why do I. Why does this make me feel uncomfortable?

[C]

Or later on in life, at the nursing home, the adult kid is throwing cheese back at the parents.

[A]

All right, this next one is. Well, we all know that seagulls, they have an appetite and they like human food. They're like the rats of the sky. So this one is no different. An entire piece of pizza in the seagull's mouth flying in the sky. I looked it up. I think this is AI because there's no way that the pizza came uncut. If anything, the seagull could get away with one piece of pizza, but you can't get away with the whole pie. What pie comes uncut?

[C]

You know, you never had just like a bad pizza pizza. They didn't cut it all the way.

[A]

Through, you know, I mean, the entire one though, it wouldn't have come undone in the sky. I think it's AI it could be.

[C]

I'm trying to play benefit the doubt. I mean, I don't know how big a seagull's like, you know, claws are or whatever.

[A]

I do have a story though, so. And I was going to tell it before, but I said, I'll save it for the seagull pizza video. Because during COVID one of my friends, you know, a lot of people were working from home. I wasn't, but my friend was. And in order to do you know, team building and things like that. They would have Zoom parties, and whoever would, like, send a pizza to everyone's house, and then they would get on Zoom and have a meeting or something on a Friday. It was supposed to be, like, dumb team building, corporate bs. So my friend had someone in their office, sent a full pizza to my friend's house, and she walked outside and to get the pizza, because whoever ordered it said, hey, the pizza was just delivered to your house. So she went outside, opened the box. No pizza in the box. Just a box. All of a sudden, walks around the corner, dog was eating the entire pizza. You got to be careful. Even with delivery people leaving the pizza outside, if the dog's outside, that pizza might be a goner.

[C]

Dang.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

I just picture the dog, like, you know, shutting the bot pizza box back and making it all, like, a clean theft plan, an escape route, you.

[A]

Know what I mean?

[C]

Disabled the security system.

[A]

They'll never know. All right, you guys have, what, two blind reactions for me today?

[C]

Yeah, we do. We have our. We have our, you know, favorite annoying congresswoman from Texas.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

But we have an impersonation of her.

[A]

So this is Jasmine Crockett impersonator. Okay.

[C]

There could be a Vegas future for the. For this girl. So check this out.

[A]

I know. And two things for sure, baby.

[H]

They always come back.

[A]

Better. Things elevating.

[H]

So, like, last.

[A]

You see what I'm saying?

[H]

Like, don't come back to me when your girl.

[A]

Whatever she was. Yeah, that tracks.

[C]

I mean, it's. It's pretty good, unfortunately. It's pretty good.

[A]

I will say I didn't notice obnoxious eyelashes on that girl, so she's got to get bigger eyelashes, because when I see Jasmine Crockett, all I can see are the eyelashes. No.

[C]

Yeah. Texas. You got to go bigger with.

[A]

Everything's bigger in Texas, including the hair, including the eyelashes, including the attitude. But I do think Rocket's got. She's a triple threat. She's got all three.

[C]

I mean, you got guys like Sean Farish, you know, friend of the show that's done, you know, the Trump thing early on, and now he's just. He's. He's hilarious with it. I think you give this girl a little time. I'm. I'm encouraging her, like, you know, keep at it. Let's go. Keep working this thing. There's something there a bit.

[A]

I'm into it. All right, hit me with the next one.

[C]

All right. You introduced us to this the other day, so here's a new. Here's A new run of these babies that I thought was funny.

[A]

What's the biggest red flag you caught from your parents? Early.

[H]

They took my temperature. Let's just say it wasn't in my mouth and I will never trust them again.

[A]

What's the red flag you've seen from your mom?

[H]

She called my dad a deadbeat, but girl, you the one who let him beat the Goonies down.

[A]

What's a parenting red flag you caught early?

[H]

They dropped my pacifier, blew on it, and stuck it back in my mouth. So they'll for sure be going to a nursing home.

[A]

What's a red flag? You notice your parents early on?

[H]

They've been feeding me the same plain milk every single day. No flavor, no seasoning. 0 out of 10. What's something you wish your parents would do differently? When they're burping me too rough, bruh, it's supposed to be a gentle pat, not a drum solo on my spine. What's a red flag you've already seen from your parents? When they stick that suction thing in my nose too far, I'm falling for emancipation next time.

[A]

What's a red flag you remember from in the world?

[H]

My mom hit the blunt so much, I only cried because I was happy to be out. But now I'm stuck here.

[A]

What's something your mom does that really.

[H]

Gets on your nerves? She'll grab the 16 ounce can of tuna when she knows wick only covers the 12. What's something strange you remember your parents doing? They made me do a photo shoot against my will with only a hat on. I felt violated and vulnerable. What's something your pops did that you'll never forget? My mom said he was coming to pick me up and he literally picked me up, put me back down, and left.

[A]

I like them. I like these are the only AI babies that I like, but I do think that these are very funny. So I like it. We've got 10 minutes left, and I've got some questions that I put on my Instagram story earlier. So if you want to be a part of this next time, just follow me at Haley Karania H A Y L E Y C A R O N I A on Instagram. And then you can submit your questions. But if you have any in the chat that you want to add live ghee and Andy will read them in the chat. They'll tell me in my ear and I'll. I'll answer them. So someone asked me, is there a place in Florida you haven't visited yet that you would like to visit. And my answer to this is absolutely. I've only been here since March. I haven't seen maybe 10 of Florida. So I have a lot to go. I would say I want to go to the Everglades. I want to go to Alligator Alcatraz, make it happen. Someone also said, you know, would you rather the west coast or the east coast of Florida? We live on the east coast. I don't go to the west coast that much. I've got a friend in Sarasota, I'm going to go visit her. I've got a friend in Jacksonville, that's east coast. So I'm going to go visit her. But I don't, I don't get out much.

[C]

You need to go to Tampa and then just go north on the coast.

[A]

I've been to Tampa. Tampa's fine. St. Pete's fine.

[C]

Yeah, but all that, all that Destin and all that stuff north on the coast.

[A]

Yeah, I haven't been to Destin or Rose Rosemary beach or anything like that. So I want to do that. That's on my Florida bucket list. Anywhere else that I should go in Florida, you got to let me know. Someone said, Daytona. My friend's going to be at the Daytona 500. When is that? Next weekend or the weekend after or this weekend? I think it might be this weekend. She said she was going to be there? Yeah. Someone said, let's go to Alligator Alcatraz together. Okay. It's a party. Someone said, what drove you to be a conservative? Few things. So first, when I was in high school, I got into a little fender bender and it was not my fault. I was sideswiped by a woman that did not speak English. And if I had to guess, she was not a citizen. And she made sure that I was okay. I was. But I was going straight on the road and this woman just literally passed me on the left and swiped my passenger side. Like she completely came from behind me, past me on a one lane road. So it was like 100 her fault. And I pulled over because she just hit me and she pulled over. I couldn't understand what she was saying, obviously because I don't speak Spanish. But I would assume that she was just making sure that I was okay. And then she drove off and I said, this is, is, this is messed up. This is messed up. So this is my, my first incident. I was probably what, 17? You get your license when you're in New York. So, yeah, 17 years old. Side select by probably an illegal immigrant. I said, this is messed up. This is messed up. You should, you, you should at least make sure that I'm okay and be able to speak English and ask me. And then I went to college. Of course, college is where a lot of people become liberal. But I became absolutely red pilled in college. I took some media classes because I studied film, television and media arts. And one of my professors was covering media bias and they were actually talking about 9, 11 and they were comparing how Fox News channel covered a story versus everyone else. And basically my professor's point of view is that, you know, here's how the media writ large was covering it, and then here's how, you know, the kick step children over at Fox were covering it. And I agreed with how Fox was covering it because the story was how they wanted to build a mosque at ground Zero, which is, you know, time and place. People like, this is inappropriate and insensitive to people who lost their loved ones to radical Islam. So maybe let's not put a place of worship for Islam right where these people died. You know, that's like my thinking and probably a lot of people's thinking. But of course the right side was being demonized in this class and I just thought. And we kept doing more examples of this media bias and I kept agreeing with Fox News. So I was like, I think, I think I'm one of the bad guys. I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go work for them. And I did. So that. And then my first job out of college was at Fox News. I interned in local news first. I know a lot of you already know that story, but when I got to Fox, I interned at Fox four times. And then my first job there, I worked in advertising and on air promotion and part of my job as a production assistant, you kind of do like the grunt work. And we had to watch every single. This is in 2015, so every single Hillary Clinton speech rally, every single Donald Trump speech rally. This was the first election where I thought, wow, I am so informed because I have seen everything that every candidate has said and I thought, I really don't like anything that Hillary Clinton is standing for. And I like what President Trump is standing for. So that's how I became a conservative. And I've just been getting black pilled ever since. Just red pilled even more red pills even more red pilled. Covet certainly red pilled me even more and opened my eyes to the government being liars, your doctors being liars, big pharma lobbyists. I mean, all of that, once you open your eyes and start Digging. How do you become liberal? I don't understand. I mean, I've just become more conservative, I think when the facts are on your side, very easy to debate your point of view, especially with a leftist, when they come with emotion and things like that. So I've always, you know, I've become more conservative, more pro life. The more research I do, the more conservative I become. So that's what kind of got me started and why I'm more conservative day by day. Someone asked, whatever happened to the lizard? Don't know. Guy. Do you have an update? I mean, we had the lizard that was on the wall. I haven't seen him in weeks. And we had some little baby ones, but I think they sprayed some, you know, like pest control. And we haven't seen any.

[G]

So either he passed away.

[A]

He passed away, you think?

[G]

Yeah, F. In the chat for the lizard, or he's living in my house because I found the lizard in my bedroom yesterday. So he could have moved. Yeah, he could have gone into my car on the way out or something.

[A]

You got to speak louder.

[G]

Sorry.

[A]

Is it just me that. It's g. Is.

[G]

Sorry, guys. Maybe I just don't like to speak loud, but, yeah, maybe he's living in my room now.

[A]

I don't know.

[G]

I found the lizard there.

[A]

Okay. Someone in the chat said you killed them. I did not do anything. I just haven't seen it. Someone is guessing that he's behind the Pinehurst sign. Maybe. I mean, we can go look, but I haven't seen him in. In weeks, so. So TBD on the lizard. If you had the opportunity, would you time travel to 1986 or the 80s in general? That's very specific. What happened in 1980?

[C]

We had this chat. We were. We were. We were talk. The chat and I were bonding over all of the stuff that came out in 1985, like music, movies. That might have been the most culturally, like, impactful year. Crazy stuff. So really just say yes, you'd go back to 1985, trust everybody?

[A]

No, I. I don't want to time travel. I feel very. I want my feet on the ground. I want to stay parked. In reality, these time travel movies and stuff always scare me because people get trapped, and then things happen and things get changed. These, like, different universes and all alternate realities like this freaks me out.

[C]

Just stick with one. You got to stick with the back to the future time travel rules. And then you're. You're fine. You know, just stay away from. Well, you and you're. You're traveling Back to before. You're bold of you to don't run into your parents.

[A]

Back to the future. And I haven't.

[C]

You got no shot. No, there's no shot that she's seen that chat. So let's start. Somebody mail her back to the future so we can. So we can.

[A]

No.

[C]

No one feel like she needs to watch.

[A]

I don't have a Blu Ray player. I don't have a DVD player. I have to just stream it. So I appreciate it, but don't send me anything because I won't be able to watch it. Thoughts on parents tracking their kids with phones or air tags? This is a different world. So when I grew up, my parents did not track me. I think that strict parents create sneaky children. That is my hypothesis. And nowadays I think the world is a scarier place than the world that I grew up in. So I track a lot of my friends on their phone. Like I track their locations and I just think it's fun to see where they are. I'm like, oh, so and so's at home. Or oh so. Or if we have a dinner reservation and someone's late, we go and check their location and they'll be like, oh, on my way. And we're like, you're lying. You're still at home. So I track my friends. I think if I had kids, maybe I would track them, but I wouldn't overdo it. I wouldn't abuse the privilege because, you know, then they get sneaky. So that's just my, my thing. Someone asked me, do you think America is doomed to fall into communism? Which I think this is my last question here. So if you can find a more positive one for me to end on, that would be awesome. If someone in the chat can give me a positive question that I can end on. Because I don't want to end on this. I want to stay positive. I don't think that America is, is doomed to fall into communism. I think that even if we had a socialist far left candidate as president, the pendulum would swing. They're not going to be in office forever. So I think if we had someone like, you know, in the future, a Zoran Mamdani or someone of that ilk, we would have a, a right wing president come in after them. So, you know, this is kind of the thing with American politics. And I talk about this, especially when we talk about the immigration crisis, because I'm always worried, you know, all the work that President Trump is doing, someone is going to come in and undo it. And then you Know the next time a Democrats in office they're going to undo everything and vice versa. We always just undo everything over and over. Someone asked me steak or pizza? That is a good question because that's hard to choose.

[C]

New York made in Brooklyn.

[A]

I know. Like if I pizza pizza I'm going pizza. If I am anywhere else steak I would say because pizza anywhere outside of New York is just not the same. We talked about this yesterday. Was this before the show or was it on the show? I don't remember. But we were talking about how the water in New York is incredible. That is the reason why the dough for the pizza and the bagels are.

[C]

The bagels and the pizza makes so good. Yeah.

[A]

And when I lived in Nashville, there's a Roberta's pizza in Brooklyn and they opened one in Nashville and they import the water from New York to Nashville to make the pizza. And that was the closest pizza that I had had to New York pizza outside of New York. Someone said no, Connecticut pizza is the best. Listen, I went to college in Connecticut. I get it. We the, the Frank Pepes and, and all that. I've had it. Same stuff, it's the same water. So when people say Connecticut, New York water, like saying it's like a little.

[C]

Bit of a, like a hard portnoy stance right there to say Connecticut pizza is better than New York pizza.

[A]

I will say I think the bagels in New York are better than the bagels in Connecticut. I like I. You can get good pizza in Connecticut, but bagels for, for whatever reason. No. So I guess we can end on that, we can end on the pizza bagels debate from this New Yorker. So. All right, thank you so much for scrolling along with me.
