Welcome to on the Chain. This is Jeff here with co host Chip on time, punctual as always, always at 8:00, 8:00am someplace. Welcome to a good conversation here on a brilliant, bright Saturday morning. Looking forward to talking to everybody. The one thing that you are probably wondering about the title here, why Women are Turning to Crypto. And one thing you probably didn't know is that one third of all crypto holders in the US Are actually women. So we're going to get into that conversation, dig in a little bit further. And while that's happening, while you see growth in the space, guess who's continuing, continuing to attack crypto. Well, you probably guessed it, the Democrats. So we got to dig into that, dig a little deeper. Apparently they have no moral compass. Well, we got to figure that one out too, so. So if you guys are ready, Chip, if you're ready.
Chip
I'm ready. Let's. Let's kick this off. Ready? Let's go. Welcome to on the Chain. Welcome to on the Chain. Everybody out there around the world, we are uniting people through. What is it? Decentralization, Jeff. Bringing people together. People want one thing, they want freedom, they want decentralized and they want. That's pretty much it, you know, they want to do the best for the families and they want to live a life. They want government to stay out of their lives. They don't want to be censored. They want to have free speech. All the great things that people look forward in life. And well, you know, it gets worse and worse over in the UK where they're constantly censoring things, Jeff. They're like. And then I saw something. I have a video here too. I don't know if I'll watch it. It's just a little too sad to watch. It's off the hook. It's off the hook. Danville. Yeah, that's good. Thank you for. I always like the people that remind me to come in there. Yeti things set up because I start collecting those yetis. So we will start collecting comments. We got three entries in there already, which is phenomenal. Columbus, Ohio.
Jeff
Oh, Columbus. That makes more sense. Like what the heck is C bus?
Chip
Where is definitely on the mobile. It doesn't want. Columbus is a lot to type out when you're on a mobile. It's like Sebas Ohio. There you go.
Jeff
Spell it right. Does it have two U's in it?
Chip
Does it.
Jeff
Oh, how do you spell Columbus?
Chip
It could be a lot, man. It can be a lot. It's all good. I like this. We Are slaves indeed. Indeed we are. This is. Justin says I call them Demon Krats.
Jeff
Demon. Demon rats.
Chip
Demon rats. I'm sorry. Demon rats.
Jeff
Demon grass.
Chip
Demon rats. I don't care. He's on the right. He's on the right mood.
Jeff
Onega.
Chip
Even when he puts it out there.
Jeff
I still have to think twice if I'm trying to pronounce it.
Chip
There you go. Onega. Onega.
Jeff
Onega, Kansas.
Chip
Onega. What a. What a week it's been. It's been just a week, Jeff. I mean, it's been almost in crypto. News has been really kind of far. Few Columbus for you guys.
Jeff
See, that said.
Chip
I didn't know that was like an. I didn't know that that was it.
Jeff
You know, C. Bus's abbreviation.
Chip
If you're lesson's always going to write Onega everywhere Omega for people outside the area has to write that, right? Because they don't know. They're like. But, you know, the funny thing was, you know, living in Boca Raton, Florida, you'd always, like, call one of these message machines. It says Boca Ratson. You're like, okay, yeah, they don't know how to pronounce Raton, right. It's a. It's just, you know, it's. Rat's mouth is the pronunciation because of the inlet. Looks like a little mouth of a rat. So it's called. Sounds really elite, you know, but it's Rat. Raton is. So they always say Boca Ratan. Hi, Boca Ratan. I'm like, no. You know, and that's. Justin's probably laughing too, because he knows people outside the area butcher the hell out of it all the time. And. And I grew up outside of Buffalo, and there were, like, words like cheektawaga. I was born in North Tanawanda. Tanawanda. And our rivalry, Jeff. The football rivalry, high school rivalry was Tanawanda, and we were North Tonawan. And when you. You crossed over the. The river, it was. You were in Tanawanda, and it was like this big rivalry with the high school. So the rivalry game, you know what? It's called tnt because we. Because we were from nt. North Tonawan. They were from Tanawa. So it was a big TNT game, you know, big. But I gotta tell you, like, my high school was pretty lame. Like art. You know, everyone has like. Like the Lions or the, you know, the. The Bears or some kind of a cool mascot. Dude, we were the Lumberjacks. It just wasn't cool. The Lumberjacks. That was like. That was our. That was our team. I don't know who came up with it, but that's what we were. It was pretty, pretty sad, if I have to say so.
Jeff
Mike Marath. That's why I'm at the Boca Grand.
Chip
The Boca grand, baby. The Boca grand, baby. There you go. We go. Even Google Maps says it's wrong. I get mad every time I know that's what I'm talking about. It's like. Like nobody checks into, like the proper pronunciation. Chopping wood. There you go. Better than a beaver. There you go. Better than Reaver. Look at this. Everyone's just. But let's get in this main story here. I think what's interesting is the fact I keep going back to the National Cryptocurrency association, which Ripple is the one that kind of put that in there. And Stu Alderade has really, really championed this effort here. But I love this. It's. Crypto isn't just for bros. Obviously referring to the crypto bros, you know, slogan. In fact, nearly a third of us crypto holders are women. And this is something that I think just goes. And now, do we have any. Is. Is there any women in here? Not one. Where are all our women? We do this great story, and there's. I don't see any. If you're. If you're a woman and you want, please chime in and say, I'm here so we can talk about this. Because otherwise we'll have to say that 99 of our broadcast doesn't go out. Isn't. Isn't OTC family. Now, I know OTC family has women.
Jeff
That's right.
Chip
But a third of u. S. Crypto holders. We should have at least 20 at all times. Now, maybe they don't want to, you know, say anything. And then sometimes we have names like Zober. You don't know. There's no way to know.
Jeff
The Frankfurt hot dog.
Chip
Frankfurt hot dog not far from us. Frankfurt hot dog. Beautiful. That's very exciting right there. So moms, artists, teachers, and even more benefiting from crypto in their daily lives, learning more. Okay, good. Thank you for chiming in. Thank you. Jay Washington. I'm here. Good. See, like, just listen in the background. Not really, you know, kind of. But that's why we want to do the story. So, you know, if you want. There, Jay, go ahead and check in. If you want to, like, say, like, when did you get into crypto? Was it something newcomer? You've been around it for a long time. Always good to know, like, when you kind of, like, you kind of came into the, you know, the crypto world. But this is exciting because a lot of people, they think it's all crypto bros. And it's not. I mean, if you think about it, there's more. The only thing there's more on the planet than water are women. Right. It's like 51 plus percent of the population of planet Earth is women. They are the majority of the species and they. And so technically speaking, we should probably see that rise up to, you know, from a third to maybe, you know, at some point, half. 50% should be around 50, 50. But a third's not bad. We know there's a lot of crypto bros. And the other thing that was surprising about this report that I think we learned was the fact that I think, like a lot of boomers too. Wasn't that something we found? I was trying to think where that report was. I know we looked at the report or someone, I don't know, but I thought, I thought there was like a pretty high percentage of boomers. When we pulled the report, it was pretty intense.
Jeff
Look at this. So Jay says 2000, late 2017.
Chip
That's not. That's not late.
Jeff
No, that's as in late 2017.
Chip
Oh, late 2017. Okay. I thought you were saying like it was late.
Jeff
Yeah, And I have a. She says I have a crypto chat group with seven girlfriends. That's pretty cool too.
Chip
Very cool. Yeah, very nice.
Jeff
But we see, you know, from an investment perspective, development perspective, you know, the tech and crypto starting to cross, you know, all the, all the different lines. And it's important, you know, as we get into it, because what you said, you know, it's not just crypto bros. It's not just tech, you know, tech guys that are, you know, stuck behind a computer, you know, and it has to become more and more mainstream across, you know, all lines, which makes it a utility and makes it something useful and mainstream, whether you're using it for investment or it becomes part of everyday use case. So that this is where we're starting to gain that momentum, starting to gain that direction. But let's go through some of these statements here.
Chip
Yeah, it's like this. You feel like this. Here it is. Crypto brings a whole new dimension to gaming, makes it much more exciting. When most of us have access to the tool, we're going to see a lot of different ways of doing things. You know, you don't have to understand it in order to benefit from it. That's a good one too, because a lot of people are Like, I. I get hit up by people all the time. Like, Chip, you're into crypto, right? I'm like, yeah. I mean, I guess. So I went to. So they'll ask me questions. Like, it's so confusing. I don't know. Like, I got a good buddy of mine who's just getting in the. He was in the game, but he kind of, you know, made a couple mistakes like all of us have, right? That's. We've all maybe. Maybe lost or maybe miscalculated, and he's getting back in the game. So there's a lot of questions and a lot of those. Like, I don't understand this. I don't understand that. I'm like, well, it takes a little bit of time. It doesn't mean you have to be out. Crypto became a bridge for me to connect to communities. There you go. Crypto made it possible to connect to younger donors, which causes that. That truly matter. That's a great way too. You know, people be able to donate crypto 50 of the time. I gave the people who work for me the option they would choose to be paid in crypto. Interesting. So there you go. There's just a couple stories, but it's. But I remember she share your. Your crypto story and you'll be featured. But I think I remember one of the. One of the. These are probably more exciting to watch the actual videos themselves of the people, but I think one of the. They have a bunch of people. Yeah, these are all. They're all in here. Here. Yeah, they're all here. Okay. But that's just. I think it's kind of cool that that that Ripple's actually doing this and putting this together. They're kind of behind this whole thing. It's good to sort of. And then there's a button on here, too, which I probably should get into. It talks about learn. There's a Learn Crypto Knowledge loading. We're breaking it down. You can get notified to. To get explained. I don't know what this is. Yeah. So sounds like a newsletter that they'll send it out. You can. No experience, beginner, intermediate, advanced, and experts. Just some information of where you guys are. If you guys are interested in this, if you want to sign up for this, I'll drop this right there into the chat, but you can go sign up there. Sounds like it's just a newsletter where they'll send you out some interesting stuff. Crypto knowledge. Boom, boom, boom. Here's a bunch of research. Trying to think, where was that? I don't know where we found that, but you can download the report and there you go. But it's a cool thing that they're actually doing this to actually educate people and they've got this sort of national organization. So I like that, too. I was going to ask you, Jay, so with this, with this, with this chat that you have with your girlfriends, are they, what did you guys first start with? Was it bitcoin? Was it xrp? What, what did you guys start with? And is how, how diversified did the group get? Just curious to hear what that looks like. You've been around it for a long time. Coming up on eight years, almost eight years. Well, eight years later this year. So just curious to see what that, what that sounds like. And I have to laugh at this, Jeff, because, you know, you remember us talking about when the, when the campaign was going on, we were talking about like it's not in and the Democrats, like according to their, their sort of playbook and sort of their values, if you will, if you want to call them values. But I think decentralization is a polar opposite, right? They're really into big government. They really like the centralization, the control, all that kind of stuff. And Paul Gruwell, who is the chief, he is the chief, I think, legal officer over there, Coinbase, he said that the today, the Oregon State attorney general is resurrecting the dead by bringing a copycat case of the SEC's enforcement action against Coinbase. As a reminder, the SEC dismissed the case with prejudice. This type of political jockeying is embarrassing. Waste of Oregon taxpayer That's another thing. Is it Oregon or is it Oregon? I think it's Oregon, but I don't know if you're outside the state, you say Oregon. Jeff Origami, in case you think I'm jumping to conclusions, the AG's office made it clear to us that they're literally picking up where the Gary Gensler SEC left off. Seriously, this is exactly the opposite of what Americans should be focused on right now. We've never been closer to bipartisan legislation for digital assets. And this backward lawsuit does nothing to protect consumers or solidify American leadership. We remain confident that we're on the right side of the facts and the law and that we are prepared to fight this misguided lawsuit. But in the meantime, where business is usual in Oregon. You can read more here. So that goes into it. And then Ellie Terrett popped in with some additional information. Jeff. That wasn't mentioned in Paul's post. New Oregon Daily Attorney General Dan Rayfield a Democrat or a demon rat, as Justin would say, has apparently informed Coinbase the plans to pick up where the SEC left off, pursue the exchange over charges of operating an unregistered securities exchange and broker dealer. Jeff, this is so pathetic. Do you think Gary Gensler had anything to do with this? You think these guys are connected or pals or of some kind? Or he's a fanboy of Gary Gensler because it's the same case, basically.
Jeff
So crazy. Gary.
Chip
I mean, Gary just doesn't go away. The state. He was. He was. He. He was on video last week. He was on cnbc, and again, he just looked like a doofus. The state is also resurrecting the SEC's original claim that the coin bee staking program involves the unregistered offer and sales of secur. The move comes just two months after the SEC dropped its case against Coinbase, citing the work of the new crypto task force. At efforts of the federal level to provide a regulatory framework for crypto. And then, yeah, Paul's. Paul Grew or Paul Gruel says the case is meritless and company will do whatever is required to beat it. But this is. It's kind of pathetic. I mean, really, this. The. Why would you even pick up a case like this? John Deaton chimed in on this as well. He had this to say that. He said that the Oregon. This is. This is the guy right here. This is the guy smiling Ted's Used Cars. What? That is Attorney General Dan Rayfield. He tagged him. And also Dan Rayfield's personal account. He's the former speaker of the House of the Oregon House. Okay. Dan Rayfield should be ashamed of himself, says John Dean. A pure political stunt and utter waste of taxpayer money. He has a standing challenge to come on crypto law and debate or justify his actions. But I doubt he will because political hacks like him and Gary Gensler are usually cowards. Dude, that's some strong words. John Deaton is calling his ass out on the map. He's calling him out and then he insults him. He's like, but he won't be. You know why? Because you're a coward. I'm like, he's kind of just taunting him, dude. I mean, I could just see Dan Rayfield waking up and like, who's this John Deaton character? And then, like, does a little bit of research, goes on to John Deaton's post, realizes, okay, this is a former US candidate, founder of crypto Law, managing partner, Deaton Law Firm. Right? Entrepreneur, Author, Survivor, almost 400000 followers.
Jeff
Yeah.
Chip
Let's just check out what Dan Rayfield has. Dan Rayfield has 4, 000 followers. And then the. The Attorney General. How much does he have there? 7,000. I mean, I'm surprised there's even 7, 000 people that follow the official. The official. What do you call it? The DOJ department. The Attorney General. So he. I mean, honestly, he's trying to make a name for himself. Probably too, Jeff, because. Have you ever heard this guy's name before? I don't know who the guy is.
Jeff
No, not Dan Rayfield. No, I've not heard his name before.
Chip
Now you know. Now you know. He's also the former speaker.
Jeff
Now we know. Now we. That's.
Chip
Now we know to stay away from this.
Jeff
Now. Now we know. Yeah. Chip on a side note, has nothing to do with crypto. I was. I was trying to get one of the other videos loaded up and this one popped up. Now the question is, what would you do if you were looking through your ring camera and you saw this video? That's. This is the question.
Chip
Let me see. Oh, yeah, I saw. I saw that with you. With the gator.
Jeff
Yeah.
Chip
Climbing up the door. That was weird. Dude.
Jeff
Look at the other one just sitting there. Look how big these guys are.
Chip
What would you do in Florida? These gators are for real, dude. I've had too many close calls with gators. They're in all the. Every. Every community has. Look at this guy. He's.
Jeff
Look how he's climbing. Look at this guy climbing up.
Chip
Imagine he breaks the window and he comes in and starts eating people.
Jeff
Look how scary that is. Come to the door. Even you go out, not even paying attention. Just run outside.
Chip
Welcome to Florida.
Jeff
These two guys. Oh, my God.
Chip
Yeah. I don't know, man. It's a very. Yeah. Those gators, I mean, they're like people crazy. And people go down to the water. They want to go to a lake and they want to go down. They're like, just go down to the water. It's like. I'm like, there's. Excuse me. There's gators in there. Get away. You know, and it's like every once in a while. And they're sneaky too. So my buddy sent me a video. See if I can pull it up. My buddy sent me this awesome video. So he lives on a. He lives on a lake up in Delray. And he sent me this. This video. Probably had to play it and show the camera here. But first of all, when I looked at the video, I was like, what am I looking at here? Like, what am I supposed to be seeing? I don't really know if I see something here, but you're gonna see a raccoon. And I go, oh, that's cute. Look. A little raccoon. He's eating something on the side of. He's eating something on the side of the wall there. So there's a little raccoon. See? Look at him. Cute little bugger. She's sitting there. He's. He's doing his own thing, you know, he's having some food now. Look what's right behind him over his left shoulder. You see the gator? You see the gator?
Jeff
Oh, there he is. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Chip
Boom.
Jeff
Oh, done. Oh, brutal.
Chip
He's good. Yeah. I was like, dude, that was some. That was something, wasn't it?
Jeff
Brutal.
Chip
Yeah, there it is again. There it is again. So you see him? There he is. He's just kind of hanging out. Look at how slow. Oh, got him done just like that. Goodbye, lunch. And I said, dude, how'd you happen to catch that? He goes, that gator was stalking that raccoon for 40 minutes. They're patient, dude. They're patient. He was just waiting for the right time to kind of come up and grab him. I was like, he was just on the side. 40 minutes. He said he stalked him for it. I was like, wow. F that. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Jeff
So, Abby, again, we don't have those swamp up.
Chip
Yeah. But you also have some bad weather, though, too, man.
Jeff
Yeah, I think I'll take the alligators over the bad weather any day.
Chip
It's like, we have some friends of ours, a couple that are in. They're in Alaska right now, and they don't have really too much to say about Alaska. So they've been there. I think I'm gonna be there for, like, six months, whatever. And they said that they don't. They think there's one dentist in town, and no one's ever seen the dentist.
Jeff
Oh, man.
Chip
And then they're complaining that they. That just. I mean, you know, I'm like, well, if you come from Miami and you go to Alaska, it's going to be culture shock. And if you go from Alaska to Miami, it's going to be culture shock. It's a different way of rolling there. And, you know, I mean, snow. It snows all the time. And certain parts of Alaska get a lot of daylight. And it's. It's a weird thing, Jeff.
Jeff
Just not it.
Chip
We're not done with this yet.
Jeff
Oh, yeah, we got to get back into this rule.
Chip
So we finally got a copy the Oregon attorney general complaint, if there were any doubt about the motivation behind it, look no further than Section 9, where it won omits Judge Fela's order granting intellectory appeal of the SEC case. And number two, amidst any mention of Judge Torres's decision in xrp, number three bears the stamp of two private law firms brought on to profit from this suit. And then four labels the chairman of the SEC as a crypto lobbyist and five decries the decrees the reassignment of Gensler's lead lawyer to the IT department. Not exactly subtle. But, Jeff, this is what we've been saying. And the crypto bros were out there going, no, it's gonna. No, it's gonna be a positive swing. They're gonna go. I'm like, it's not in their DNA. They can't have something decentralized because the control is taken out of it. They need to be able to control. And what we're finding out. Did you see that? Where was it Hamas, where the fighters, like, they're not getting paid anymore. The soldiers are getting paid anymore because 70 of their funding came from USAID.
Jeff
Of course it did.
Chip
I mean, we were funding that. We were funding this. I mean, they're finding this everywhere. All of this weight, taxpayer wasted stuff. And you know, two things that are going to totally change that are blockchain and AI. And AI is doing a great. Because there's no way a human. It's so convoluted, there's so many dots to connect that only AI can take all this unstructured data and make sense of it to where. Now there's databases you can go search for. For almost anything really. There. What's data. Republican came out. She keeps releasing stuff where she programs, creates some AI, like a search. Then you can go search for stuff on there. So it's pretty insane. So who's getting paid in this? I wonder if this guy Dan knows anybody over at Cohen, Milstein, Sellers and Toll, this law firm that's getting paid out of ticks, right? They're getting this suit. Now they got to go defend themselves. They got to go to court. Coinbase has to spend a bunch of money to defend themselves. And even this is it. Like some states have. If it's a frivolous lawsuit and you lose, you pay their attorney fees because then it cuts down on all this. This. The stupid. These lawsuits that kind of come out of nowhere.
Jeff
So Float is saying who will be programming the AI? The problem is AI is programming AI. I forget what percentage of it that you're already seeing coding that's being constructed by the AI. So yes, there's people at some stage now it's starting to learn. So as it learns from itself. And it's interesting. Chip, I was reading a specific. There was an article specifically on the nuances of AI. You know, should you say please and thank you to AI? And they're saying yes, because it's a learning intonation. It's learning interaction at that human level. You know, kind of like you're raising a. A kid. And, and they have to learn. But saying please and thank you will then be interpreted back into, into the system. And so I'm finding it to be interesting the direction that things are migrating in, but the speed at which things are migrating. I was in a meeting yesterday and we started talking about different sections, segments of different segments of the economy that will be erased in a very short period of time. What type of career paths are going away. So one of the big ones that people aren't even considering yet at this point are radiologists. Think about, you go to medical school to study as a radiologist and you get replaced by AI. Why? Because AI that you have people sitting in dark rooms looking at film all day long, digital film, night might be a CT and mri, whatever X ray that they're there interpreting. And their eyes miss things, their eyes, you know, after, you know, you're in that dark room looking, and you're trying to get through as many as you can. But now imagine AI does it. AI does it in a split second. It looks at it, it identifies it, it highlights it. Now, AI now sorts through, let's say, a hundred different studies, picks out the ones that need a specific human review. So now you go from maybe needing five radiologists to maybe needing one, you know, so now all of a sudden you have one in charge of all this AI content. And it's changing the dynamic of how we orchestrate. So that's in the medical field. Then you think about, you know, from a programming perspective, you know, just from the overall speed at which it can interpret things. And you and I had a conversation before. I had written a whole bunch of notes on the whiteboard, put on the video. I didn't even take a picture of it to give it a second to interpret it. I was walking through the office and I said, what do you see here? And then as I'm going past, just tell me, describe, you know, the office. And it goes, well, obviously you guys were in a planning session. And here's what you were talking about, and here's all the notes that were on your whiteboard. I'm like, dude, I just walk. All I did was pan through the. The room, you know, and just pass by every little thing. But it interpreted the whiteboard and read it so quickly. Chip.
Chip
All my sales calls. I will take the call. I'll take the transcript. I know, yeah, Zoom has its own AI, but it does a crappy job. I'll take it in there. And I got a big prompt that I, That I've over time, and I add that prompt, and it organizes it, a summary. Who said what? All the people on the call, all the roles, all their, you know, because they always do an intro, who's who. So all of that stuff, I copy and paste that into that note for that particular call, and then I can reference it and search it. And then I also take the transcript and put it in there if I ever have to go back to it, because sometimes you can't find it inside of that. But then I'll take. And then I'll say, you know, create an email for me. And even Zoom has its own thing where you create the email, and then it will take all the points. Here's a summary. Here's who's doing what. I mean, I like to do my own because I hear things that are more important. It does what it thinks, but. But it's getting to the point where it's so fantastic. And I'll send that, and they'll be like, oh, my God, this is fantastic. Oh, my. Yeah, look at all this. Look at these great notes. And, and it really is. I mean, I, I, I use, I've been using AI goto since, you know, two years coming up on two years now. I've paid 20 bucks for chat GPT. I use other ones. I mean, it's part of my regular world. Helps you see things you don't see, too. And if I put up a paper, I go, like, this is what I think about this. Like, what are your thoughts? Or what am I missing? Or here's my hypothesis. What do you think? And it will find hidden spots. Or like, what do you think the most important things are here? And it'll pull something out. I'm like, oh, crap, I didn't see that. So, like you said, Jeff, getting those blind spots. And I'm, you know, I'm, I'm so into. Someone asked me the other day, like, hey, are you, you know, do you follow AI? I'm like, dude, you have no Idea it's like I, I probably am way more into AI than I am into crypto and, and politics. So it's like AI politics. You know, it's kind of a little bit of a, of a mixed match there. This is something. One thing I wanted to close this out with but Ellie Terry it said interesting. I know the claims here are based on state law, but in my humble opinion it seems counterproductive to do this before market structural legislation gets done. But I think what, what it's not really about that. I think Paul grew up pointing it out. This guy's trying to make a name for himself. He's the anti crypto guy. He's trying to probably maybe aspire to a higher office. Right. Was a speaker of the Oregon House. He ascends to be the Attorney General and now he's vying for another spot in the Democrat party. Maybe get on Pocahontas, Elizabeth Warren's you know, radar like oh this is one of ours. This is, this was a guy we should look at and what you know, and all he has to do is wear a purple blazer and he'll be in. Dude, if he wears that purple blazer that we see at nauseating lengths that, that Warren wears non stop, there'll be some of that in there as well. Let me see what else we got here. Some others. Yeah, there wasn't a lot of crypto stuff going on so I guess we will go over to. I wanted to put this up. Well this is crazy. Now what I'm seeing what's going on with first of all the official whitehouse.gov you know account talking about the one on X. It's like a, it's like a. There I'm seeing stuff that you would never ever imagine to see on an official government site. But then this, this one here, Benny Johnson brought this. The. The Trump administration has overhauled the Covid.gov website into a massive lab leak data center displaying scientific proof that covet was man made in Wuhan China. The official site now names Dr. Fauci is the criminal who covered it up. So if you click on this it takes you to here the lab leak. The True Origins of COVID 19. This is insane.
Jeff
It's amazing.
Chip
It's amazing the virus and you know.
Jeff
What, it's not a bad website just overall considering that where we've been, you know from government, you know, run sites, you know, overall the layout is. Yeah you know, it's easy.
Chip
We can't, we can't get set like if we did this this content like three years ago. Jeff, this channel gets shut down. Virus possesses the biological characters not found in nature. Bing dispelled that myth. Data shows that all COVID 19 cases stem from a single introduction into humans. This runs contrary to previous pandemics. There were multiple spillover events. Number three, Wuhan's home to China's foremost SARS research lab which has a history of conducting gain of function research, gene altering and organisms supercharging. Wuhan Institute researchers were sick with COVID like symptoms in the fall of 2019. It goes on and on. We're not going to read everything but you can just see it basically makes its case. This is on the WhiteHouse.gov site, Jeff. Okay. This is, it's, I mean it's crazy. So you can download the report right here. Everything's spelled out here. There's Fauci full and unconditional pardon of any offenses. So he was pardoned ahead of time. Now why would you pardon a guy if he's so on the up and up? I know. And that was done by. That's right. Matt's saying that if it was, what do they call that? The automatic auto pen. So they put a pen and it does the signature but it's not his signature. So there. It's probably going to be found to be dead in court. Talks about the HHS obstruction. Dr. I mean all of this stuff, it's insane. Then you have, this is fantastic. Then you have Senator Paul here going after. You know this is fun to watch. You want to watch this cover up thing. This is crazy. Then you got the whole thing about Como. Yeah, I mean Jeff, this isn't, it's phenomenal. There's the report you can, there's a House oversight report you can download again on the, on the White House website. So it's, I mean we got to think about Trump's been in office coming up. Well Tomorrow, tomorrow's the 20th. He was inaugurated January 20th. I know day wise it doesn't but if you think about it be 90 days or at least three months in office. Look at the kind of stuff it's been racked up, Jeff. It's been incredible journey and then this kind of stuff showing up on the White House. I mean Jeff, this is. I had to double check to make sure that the site was really the White House site because I saw this on there. Vince Vaughn who is a director but he used to do a lot of star in a lot of comedies if you remember. Wedding Crashers, he was in that movie.
Jeff
Yep, I saw him at a NASCAR event once.
Chip
Look at this.
Jeff
Yeah, he's. Yeah. Big conservative.
Chip
Vince Vaughn and Donald Trump, White House crashers. I'm like, they're putting this is on the White House site at White House.
Jeff
Yep.
Chip
President Donald Tree, Trump and Vince Vaughn in the Oval Office. I'm sure Vince Vaughn loves being that picture flashed around because, you know, he's. He directs a lot. He directs a lot these days. But I was thinking to myself, Jeff, this is insane. Like, what the hell is going on, man? This one right here, we're not the same. So there, you see here, you see a contrast right here on the left side, you see Rachel Morin's mother in the White House in the office there with Trump getting consoled. Right. Her. Her daughter was tragically, brutally killed. Brutally. The details are horrific. Brutally killed in Maryland. And Chris Van Holland didn't say one word about it, but he was asked about it at the press conference. And then you got Chris Van Holland. There's the senator from Maryland with the, with the MS.13. What is it? What's the. What is. Is that what it is?
Jeff
Ms. Thirteen? Yeah. Thirteen gang members that had been sent El Salvador. The fact that he was evil, even able to have a sit down with the guy. I don't know if they've taken him out of the jail or if he's still.
Chip
Well, this is the whole thing out.
Jeff
For a short period of time. It's very strange.
Chip
Yeah, they brought him out for a short period of time. But Justin, I'm gonna call it Justin. Justin. You see the hat he's wearing right there? He's got a. He's got a city hat on. Like, this dude's in Maryland. How do you end up with a kc? How? He's a KC fan. I mean, that's weird. So he's. He's got like some kind of like a golf shirt on, like a polo type shirt. Like, he's like make him look like he's a good dude, right? And they're talking now. One of the things that they did was they brought out some margaritas. And you know, Bukele was trolling these guys big time. So we'll get into that story a little bit later. But he set this up where they're. And then this one here, look at this one here. White House site Definitely don't visit Covid.gov. don't go there.
Jeff
Don't go there.
Chip
I mean, whoever running this site, this has a sense of humor, right?
Jeff
Well, they're great. 8.2 million views. 8.2 million.
Chip
So Trump, Trump put this out. Let me put this, let me put this out. So Trump's in the, in the oval office with this picture. If you see this, it says this is the hand of the man that Democrats feel should be brought back to the United States because he's such a fine, innocent person. They said he's not a number of MS.13, which he got MS.13 tattooed on his knuckles. And two highly respected courts found that he's a member of MS.13. Beat up his wife. Etc. I'm elected to take bad people out of the U. S. Amongst other things. I must be allowed to do my job. Make America great again. There it is. Ms. 13. Yep.
Jeff
Well, what do you expect from these? I mean, it's, it's amazing. It's really amazing. I think now would be a good time to, you know, segue with a video. Now. The video, we got an ad video. We'll play that in a minute. Or we have a video that is a meme video, but since we can't play the music, we got to dub some music over it. Chip, who's the original author of this.
Chip
Video, the dilly meme, Dilly meme team did the fantastic meme team. They do great stuff.
Jeff
So we put some lyrics to it, you know, so we don't, we don't get hit with a copyright from the music. But I think this came out pretty good ship. You haven't, you haven't heard it yet. So here.
Chip
So want me to, want me to roll with the video then?
Jeff
No, I've got the whole thing.
Chip
You got the whole thing? Let's do it.
Jeff
Put it all together. Yeah.
Chip
All right. Great.
Jeff
There we go. Here we go.
C
Nah, they ain't badass just puppets and suits got no class, pure stupidity, low life cruelty self serving fiends killing truth brutally they know it's wrong, don't give a damn morals gonna ghost like Afghanistan no compass, no code, just cold ambition fake smiles, fake tears, fake ass missions zero sum game now that's a scam they deal the cards, you just a lamb talk unity but split the nation plead the people, no hesitation it's their game you the pawn wake up fast for your rights be gone they got scripts, lies and media charm but real one see through the false alarm.
Chip
That's awesome, man. I want to hear the rest of the tune there. That was excellent, man. That was a good one. Yeah, because they, they had a, they had a song that we could hit for copyright. So we came together and put this thing up there. Jeff did that One. That was a good one, man. But.
Jeff
Yes, but on that note. You like that one?
Chip
It was solid, dude. Solid.
Jeff
Well, I think you're gonna like this. So I'm gonna go segue straight to a quick commercial. Quick commercial break from the badass Yetis and then we'll continue on. But here we go. On this one, when a Bad from the Blue Tribe.
Chip
What's the word of the day? Yeti?
D
Hey, you got your salmon wallet ready?
Chip
Why? Cause this one is gonna be. It's time to claim your legendary Blue Tribe Yeti from the clan Spirit Walkers. His name Skull the Go.
Jeff
Let's go.
Chip
Damn, two bangers in a row, Jeff.
Jeff
That was a good one, right?
Chip
That was a fantastic one. Two in a row. I love the. I love the. Love it. I love it. It's good. That was great.
Jeff
I like that one.
Chip
We got everybody chiming in here, guys, right? Yeti. Y E T I. It only picks it up once. You can run 15 times and only record it one time, so you can't have multiple entries. And so far we have 15 entries in there. So there. You have 15 entries right there. There you have it.
Jeff
Adrian Stormvark. He did rename himself Adrian Stormvark, so now we have to see if he comes in and actually renamed himself Adrian Stormbard. Yeah, now that we know his last name.
Chip
That's right. John Saxon, man. We just like regurgitate. That's funny. All these things will just. They squeeze themselves way in there.
Jeff
I need to put John Saxon into the next song, I think would be good.
Chip
John Saxon. It's funny how these things materialize, you know what I mean?
Jeff
Yes.
Chip
Big Mike would be the head dude of the F wing in the El Salvador jail and plumbing propaganda on both sides. Neither one of these Republican Democrat demon rats parties inside give them a about the American people. That's true. That's why they call it the Unit party. That's why I'm not. That's why I'm not a registered Republican. I'm a been a registered independent for a long time. I know in the state of New York you can register as a conservative, but most states it's either Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, or independent. That's it. So you don't have a big choice. I wish they'd expand that, but I haven't been registered Republican. There you go. People go, you're a Republican. I'm like, don't swear at me, please. And thank God that Trump came along to remake the party, because what a show it was. And you're absolutely right. About that XRP plumbing. It. It is a unit party. Any baby.
Jeff
It is being rebuilt in Broward county, though.
Chip
I would like to resurrect baby puss, though.
Jeff
Maybe we need to figure out how to resurrect baby puss. I would like to resurrect baby would be awesome.
Chip
Figure out a way to do that Baby puss. I think with AI we could probably come up with a really cool, badass baby puss.
Jeff
I think so. Yeah.
Chip
Oh, we could come up with the. I think that would be fantastic. Like, you know, you could.
Jeff
That would be cool.
Chip
Walking, talking, smoking cigars. You know, be great. Drinking. Drinking whiskey.
Jeff
Oh, man, that'd be awesome.
Chip
You've done them. I'm gonna. I'm gonna experiment, see if I can create a cool ass baby pussy. We'll just, we'll do it with AI we'll just do it with AI That's. We could probably do it.
Jeff
That's the only way to do it.
Chip
But I like, I like the way you're thinking there, Matt. We'll have to figure out how that's going to work. But we'll. We'll figure that out for sure.
Jeff
Get them to get this.
Chip
Yeah. Baby Push for badass. That would be even. Now we're, now we're getting somewhere. Okay. Matt LaRoche is now the chief content officer of the. On the chain. Coming up with some great ideas. That's how a lot of that stuff is sourced.
Jeff
We need a ton, ton of new merch. We need a baby Puss merch. We need all sorts of cool yeti. We need all kinds of yeti shirts. A Baby push shirt would be good. That would be kick ass. We should do some yeti shirts. We'll get those done.
Chip
So. So I was telling you about the fact that Bukele. Let me see if I've got this post here.
Jeff
That's some here somewhere here Van Holland holds a presser.
Chip
Yeah, here it is. Let's. Let's play this first. You guys can understand the full, you know, the whole full picture here, but here we go. This is a new. This is Bukele. President Bukele from El Salvador. You know, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, miraculously risen from the death camps and torture. Now sipping margaritas with Senator Van Hollen in the tropical paradise of El Salvador. Right? So they have this right here. And sipping mercury. This is like. This is like expert level trolling. Okay. Shows up, got a shirt he probably would never wear. Make the guy look presentable. He's got a Casey super bowl hat on. I mean he's trying to look, you know, make him look as this, this looks like an American tourist, let's be honest, okay? And he says he's with center van Holland, a tropical paradise of El Salvador, sipping margaritas, okay? Then he, he said, now that it's been confirmed healthy, he gets the honor of staying in El Salvador's custody. So he's got the U. S. Flag, he's got a handshake and he's got the El Salvador flag. So I mean this is some master level trolling right here by president Bukele.
Jeff
Oh my God.
Chip
So to set the stage for that now let's go ahead and pull up this video. But this is the shit show presser that von Holland center, van Holland out of Maryland. Check this out. What a shit show this is.
E
Now I just want to take a moment. I hadn't planned to do this, but as I was landing on the airplane, I got a transcript of some questions President Trump was asked at the White House today about what I would call margarita gate. I don't know if you guys have been following this, but President Bukele, after I met with Kilmar did this tweet showing us at a table with these two glasses. So here's what happened.
Chip
Oh boy, here we go.
Jeff
This guy is such a, he's such a douchebag. You could just see from every level, this guy is the embodiment of evil. You know, you can tell the guy's a complete. There's no way in any way, shape or form this guy has any friendliness to him. I wouldn't be surprised if you were, you know, you talk to any of his staff members or anybody, the guy is so just. You just look at him, look at the face, look at his body posture. He doesn't believe anything that he's saying. He's doing it all for his own, you know, per. He could give a crap about any of those people around him, could give a crap about anybody. That if anyone gets murdered in this country, it's all a hundred percent self serving interest in power. He's just so greedy and you know, you just look at him, just every part of this is disgusting. You know, these, this is the problem that people have with politics because you have politicians like this that they could give a crap. These are democrat politicians at their best, that they're just looking, you know, for to usurp, you know, more power from the hands of the people. They could care about your safety, they could care about your financial stability. And this is proof of it, the fact that he would go to El Salvador and the DNC is going to back him and make an entire show out of this because they did it before they, they ran out, you know, the Black Lives Matter group and the antifa groups and they, you know, let them, you know, run rampant in the streets and just destroy things and then they back them up and then they would come out and target white supremacy and, and this is their next narrative. This is all they do. You know, they belittle the intelligence of the American people by doing what they're doing. They're singling out a single issue, just like, you know, the police brutality thing. They're going to hyper polarize it, hyper focus on it. And this guy is the epicenter, but he's so irrelevant. He's an irrelevant senator from Maryland. You know, he's again looking for power. They're establishing narrative and man, we have to be able to, to get beyond this. But they're losing so fast. They're losing the narrative by leaps and bounds because this one, this narrative isn't going to stick. They, they really think they're trying to paint him as an innocent individual when the courts, you know, for years have already come out and said that he isn't, and yet he's going to say that he is. If there was an innocent person that was, that was released and sent outside the country, let him be tried in Abstentia in El Salvador in his own country. You know, this is the thing. He crossed over illegally. That was the first transgression coming into this country. The second, third, fourth transgression. You know, any of the, the crimes that he, you know, that he had committed, that the courts had come out and said that he committed, and yet you have a sitting senator that is going to come out. This guy wasn't innocent, you know, so just being in the country. Why did you let all these people in to begin with? I had a meeting yesterday and this person was originally from Venezuela and there's you. I mean, you guys have, you have no idea, like how, how bad things have, you know, just. You have no idea how bad things have, have, have evolved down, down in, in that region. What it used to be. If you go back and you look at what Venezuela used to be to what Venezuela actually is today, and then you see that there's professionals that have had to flee from Venezuela over the years. You know, doctors, lawyers, and, and they're over here and we're sitting down having conversation, and there are a whole bunch of doctors that Were that were in this event and they were saying there's doctors coming from Venezuela that are working in the fields, you know, in Miami instead of in their, in their chosen career. They're doing other things, you know, because. But they'll do anything to leave, to leave the country. The point though that was brought up, he was saying that, that Maduro had emptied the prisons. And he said, yes, it was 100 factual. They empty the prisons and they sent them up here into this country. All the different countries in the region had emptied the prisons and, and allowed all of their criminal criminals into this country. And that was the massive groups of, of the waves of people, the illegals that we saw coming into this country that the Democrats allowed to happen. You know, and this is so vital that we understand like every touch point of this because you'll take a senator like this or anyone else and they want to make it down to an individual level. But we have millions of people in this country that shouldn't be here, that other countries purposely sent up here. Because the one thing that is 100% obvious and known is that no country can take us down other than us falling from inside. And so if we can collapse from inside. The way you collapse the country from inside is by sending all the illegals into this country just like they did in Venezuela. The first thing they did is they made it illegal to purchase bullets. And then they started taking away your rights of, to. Of owning a weapon. There were certain regions in Venezuela where people like in Texas, they would have guns in their back window. They would carry a gun in a holster because that's the way it was. But under Chavez, he took away their right to bear arms. And then, you know, he made it less and less safe for the individual citizen and more and more criminal friendly in the streets, because that's exactly what they did there. That's exactly what they've attempted to do in this country. This is exactly what they're attempting to do over in Europe because you see it in England, in Ireland and elsewhere, throughout, throughout Europe. And they are trying to, you know, to impact health, safety and your monetary freedom. So if they can impact those three, those are the three things people care about this guy. You know, I would say, you know, he, he should be elevated to level of criminal. You know, as a senator going there to coddle criminals, decodle terrorists. Because now this organization has been labeled a terrorist organization. And you are going to have a sitting senator or sitting congresswoman like AOC that are coddling these criminals that are now designated as Terrorists. This is another problem that, you know, we're facing. And, you know, and so we're. We're gonna have to see, you know, some checks and balances put in place. This is all relevant, especially as it pertains to decentralization and the freedom of the people and what Democrats are continuing to ratchet up because they don't want you to have freedom, and they don't want you to have your own crypto, you know, and they. And this is. This is just more proof of it.
Chip
They're smarter than all of us. They don't think you're smart enough. They think they're foolish enough. That's. It came out so many times. They're like, oh, you can't leave them to their own devices. So now the whole idea was he was totally set up, this guy Van Holland. It looked like a. He's trying to back out of the fact about. Listen to this whole thing about the margaritas, Jeff.
E
We just had glasses of water on the table. I think maybe some coffee. As we were talking, one of the government people came over and deposited two other glasses on the table.
Chip
Margaret Smuggy is.
E
Yeah, I don't know if it was salt or sugar around the top. Oh, you know, dude, they look like margaritas. And if you look at the one they put in front of Kilmar, it actually had a little less liquid than the one in me in front of me to try to make it look ice.
Chip
So he noticed all this while he was just casually having a conversation or people snapping pictures. Such a joke.
E
Like, he drank out of it. Let me just be very clear, please. Either of us touched the drinks.
Chip
And by the way, anytime somebody prefaces it, let me be clear. You know, the bullshit's the next word that's a complete bunch of garbage is coming out of their mouth. Let me be clear. That was Obama's favorite line. Let me be clear. Let me be clear. It was always like, let me be clear. And then this garbage would fall out of his mouth. You're like, oh, here come the lies.
E
That were in front of us. And if you want to play a little Sherlock Holmes, I'll tell you how you can know that.
Chip
Please tell us.
E
So if you look at the video or the picture I sent out from the beginning of our meeting, you'll see there are no glasses.
Chip
Oh, no.
E
On the table. You see, in later videos, they are.
Jeff
Because you're sitting in a restaurant, but.
E
They made a little mistake or something.
Jeff
Sitting in, like, someone's living room.
E
If you sip out of one of those glasses, some of whatever it was.
Jeff
Salt or sugar, maybe use the straw.
E
You would see a gap.
Jeff
This guy's voice.
E
Nobody drank any margaritas or sugar water.
Jeff
Or whatever it is nobody trusts.
E
A lesson into the lengths that President Bukele will do to deceive people about what's going on.
Chip
As a clown show. He sets you up. He's.
E
And it's also shows the lengths that the Trump administration and the president will go to because when he was asked.
Chip
About a report, now remember, this whole press conference is because they were going to get an MS.13 gang banger whose wife filed two restraining orders on for getting beat up. Several times he was arrested with other MS.13 gang members. On other times he had a deportation order. So, I mean, it's Jeff, this, like this. I'm like, are you guys even. Do you guys. Can you read the room? Do you understand what happened? Do you understand why people wanted these people out of our country? Especially they're taking services away from the people who need it in our country. Meanwhile, can you imagine struggling, being a single mom struggling, trying to figure out you're working two jobs trying to take care of your kids and somebody strolls across the border and they get a Social Security number, they get Medicaid, Medicare, whatever. They get free health care. I mean, this, it's outrageous that you would think that little of your own community. Like, it makes almost no sense that you would do that. And of course, Stephen Miller, thank God for a guy like this that can school the pressure. He takes him to task again. Now, again, they start asking him this about, you know, what about. And he just makes him look just so stupid. Look at this president. Going to ask for him to be returned to the United States or not. Like, yes or no.
Jeff
I love it.
Chip
He's already, he's already the look, you see the laser boots coming out of his eyes. He's already destroyed.
Jeff
Like, are you serious?
Chip
This is the greatest, this is the greatest press conference I've ever seen. He just destroys them. And the way they answer, they look like morons. Listen to this.
F
Let me ask you, so what do you think would happen to him if he came back to this country? As your understanding of immigration laws, what.
Chip
Do you think would happen?
F
It's important to know you're asking a lot of questions. You are all asking a lot of questions about this and you all seem to care about it a lot. Let's see if any of you who've researched anything about this issue at all. Can anyone here tell me what would happen to the illegal alien from El Salvador. He came back to the United States. Does anyone here know? Anyone want to guess? Any of you? He could be with his family. What? Do you know the difference between a deportation order and a withholding order? Do you know the difference? Any of you? Please. Do you? Well, we're not in the government, but you. So you didn't spend. So you couldn't even spend. You couldn't even spend 72 hours over the weekend learning the distinction, even. Even writing and talking about it this whole time. What I'm getting from this conversation, which educational for me is that not one person in the media knows the difference between a deportation order and a withholding order. Is that a fair statement? You're learning about this all for the first time right now? I guess so. Okay, so the deportation order means the judge has said he must be deported from the country. He has no right to remain here any longer. He must be removed from the country. So his only options are to be deported to his home country or another country.
Jeff
That's it.
F
There's no other option. He doesn't get to stay here. He doesn't get to live here. He has no future here. He has no right to be here. He's an illegal alien. So when you keep saying return because you've been spun up by the open borders advocates, you all seem to be operating under the illusion that he would be able to come to the United States and just continue to live here illegally. That's not an option available to him. His only choices in life are to live in El Salvador or to live in another country. That's it. There's no other option, legally or otherwise, because. Because he came to our country illegally, do you understand that? He would be arrested, he'd be put in confinement, he would be deported the second time to El Salvador. Again, because there's no withholding order for an alien who's a member of foreign terrorist organization, number one. Number two is the gang that he's a member of doesn't exist in El Salvador anymore. So what you're asking for is to be deported twice. But additionally, if we chose to pretend, just pretend that the withholding order was real, he would be deported to a different country. So for example, he could be deported to Egypt. So I'm just trying to understand, is it your view, in other words, you define a country that would be willing to take a MS.13 member from El Salvador. So I'm trying to understand from you all is, so if he came back and under our laws, he was then Deported to Egypt or to Somalia, would you then be saying, great, I'm so glad that you deported him to another country. Is that what you'd all be saying?
Chip
Destroyed?
Jeff
Yeah.
Chip
And then they go, I don't know, we're not in the government. He didn't spend, he had 72 hours of research. The difference between a deport deportation order or a withholding order. There was no withholding order, by the way. I think that the portion that deportation order is from like 2019 or 2020. It's from a long time ago, Jeff. It's not like something that, that just kind of came spun out of nowhere. But the, probably the best thing that, that Trump did was classify MS.13 as a terrorist organization because that way it was able to go the way of, of, you know, there's no, there's nothing to talk about. He's just out. So Dr. Oz was in the Oval Office and he came out with some bombshells too. So let's check this out, give you.
G
A couple examples, Mr. President. These are ones that you may want to use in some of your first future conversations. Almost a quarter million people, American citizens, were fraudulently enrolled without their knowledge in exchange programs by brokers who were unscrupulous stealing from the US Government by pretending these people were on programs they never told them about. Tens of millions of dollars, Mr. President, are being spent on illegal immigrants receiving Medicaid in California and they're pushing the bill to us. Should we stop that? I think so. That will not continue. We're spending about a billion dollars on Medicaid programs for dual state eligible patients, which means you live in one state, but the system thinks you're another state and maybe a third state. We're paying all three states for services you're not getting because you don't live in three states all at once. And finally, and this one really bothers me, there are states who are using Medicaid. Medicaid dollars for people who are vulnerable are being used for non medical purposes. For example, public labor unions are getting childcare through some of this money. That doesn't make sense to me. Housekeeping. I wish I could get that for my home. There's a big problem with student loan repayments taking place with Medicaid dollars. That's not where it should be used. And we are paying for DEI programs. I could go on. But these are all programs, Mr. President, that we have created a war room at CMS to go after to catch the fraud in real time before the money leaves the federal coffers. So we have the money to reinvest in health care to make it even stronger than it's been before.
Chip
I mean, the amount of fraud, I mean, we always heard, we always knew. I mean, the government, we know there's gonna be waste and fraud. But when good people who spent their life paying into the Social Security system, getting these measly crackers and you got these, you know, they're getting crumbs, they're getting like nothing. And then you have people who are getting multiple checks, outrageous size checks for something they never paid into. You got this Medicaid fraud. You can't be in three states. All three states are being paid. You got the, the, you got services being unused for. Yeah, like Dr. Oz says, he goes, I would, I would love to have, you know, housekeeping in my house. I mean, they're paying for these, taking money. Billion here, billion there, billion there. All of this waste is absolutely just insane, Jeff. The fact that we're paying for all this stuff is just, I mean, it's, it's. I don't know, man. It just gets my blood boiling because it's at such a level that I never would have guessed it before there was a debate. Let's, let's ease into Canada. Here's a debate between Pierre Poliev and Mark Carney. And this is great because Carney thinks he's gonna, he's gonna get Pierre on this one point. Here comes back and listen to this.
H
Top secret security clearance.
Jeff
And you've refused.
Chip
He's telling them that Pierre Polyev, Mark Carney saying you've refused this top secret clearance. Right, You've refused it.
I
Why?
Chip
Why?
I
Well, first of all, I have got my security clearance. When I was a minister, I got top secret clearance at the time, so there's no problem getting that. But when the government made this recent offer, they said that if I got the secret security security clearance briefings, that I would be gagged under the security law draw and I could be prosecuted.
Chip
Look at Carney's face. I would be gagged under the securities law. Look at the look on his face. Look at this. He thinks he's got one up them on this.
I
Under the security law and I can be prosecuted if I spoke freely about matters of foreign interference. Now, given that Canada has experienced Chinese interference by, by Beijing, the government of China in two consecutive elections, I needed to do my job, to speak freely without fear of prosecution. And that was not something I would be allowed to do. Even Thomas Mulcare, the former leader, amazing ndp, said that when he was the leader of the. Of the Opposition, he never would have accepted the kind of gag order that your government and Mr. Trudeau's government was attempting to impose on me. And it's good that I was. I'd made that decision because it has allowed me to speak freely about things like the case where one of your candidates, sir, actually said that he wanted to send a political opponent to China under a bounty, threatening his life or imprisonment, and you refused to get rid of him. Now, it might have something to do with the fact that you went to China not long ago to get a quarter billion dollar loan for your company, but the reality is you refuse to stand up for a Canadian who was being threatened by a foreign government. And I was able to speak freely on that matter because I refused the gag order that the Liberal government attempted.
Chip
To let him respond. Well, I.
H
You know, there's a couple interesting things I.
Chip
You.
Jeff
I think people at home have seen.
Chip
A, you know, robust debate here, and.
H
It'S been a robust campaign, and it has not stopped Mr. Blase or Mr. Singh at times during.
Jeff
His campaign by making challenges with respect to these issues.
Chip
He's got nothing. He's got nothing on that. He's a total clown. Show this Carney guy. I really don't know who anybody would. Would. Would. I mean, the only reason they want him in there is because they don't. You know, he would. He would probably crush Trudeau. The anti American stuff that Peter probably have is kind of thinking it's a good signal. It's probably not a good signal. I don't think he's reading the room right there. But look at this little skit the CBC put together. Jeff, this is fantastic.
Jeff
Guards. I want to get out of here.
Chip
Let's get out here. Look at the CBC skit.
Jeff
This is my point card, too.
Chip
It's a joke about Mark Carney, but this is. They're playing them up on in this little skit.
H
Let's go. Let's go.
J
Oh, Mr. Prime Minister. All right, excellent.
H
Mike Myers. But you live in the States. You don't live in Canada.
J
Well, neither do you until recently.
H
Touche. That's French for something.
Chip
I don't do French in the first 20 seconds. They slammed him for not living in the States. His company's not in the States.
Jeff
In Canada. Yeah.
Chip
And he doesn't speak French because I know what to say, man. He's not a French Canadian. He doesn't speak French. Right. Come on.
Jeff
Who?
H
Remember Mr.
J
Dress up, the children's show on CBC?
Chip
Yeah. Way bud.
J
Spud. These are some pretty old references. How long have you been out of Canada?
H
Doesn't matter. Who sang Snowbird?
J
Anne, Murray.
Chip
Schwing.
J
So you have like no current references at all.
Chip
And Murray, that was a hit back in the 1970s.
H
Jeff, this indigenous songwriter co wrote up where we Belong.
J
Buffy Saint Marie. Wow, you really have been out of the country a long time. Mr. Prime Minister, can I ask you a question?
H
Is it about my blind trust?
J
No.
H
Then fire away.
J
Do you know who Drake is?
H
Duh. The wheelchair guy from Degrassi.
Chip
So what's funny about that is my older daughter used to watch the grassy high. And Drake, who's the, you know, obviously a famous rapper, right? And. And he. Drake played the kid in the. In the wheelchair. And so that was. That was that reference, in case anybody doesn't know. And the only reason I know is because my daughter used to watch that the grassy high. And he was the kid. So when I found out that was the same kid, I'm like, wasn't that the kid? I'm like, because my. My younger daughter loves Drake. And I'm like, my older daughter, wasn't that the kid in the wheelchair in that Degrassi show? She's like, yeah, that's him. I'm like, okay, so that's what he's making that reference to.
J
How many territories are there?
H
2. Yukon and the Northwest Territories.
J
A Nunavut.
H
Nunavut.
Chip
What?
J
It's a territory created in 1999.
H
No way.
Chip
Way.
J
But you knew that, right?
H
Pass.
J
Mr. Prime Minister, will there always be a Canada?
H
There will always be a Canada.
J
And will you stay on as party leader if you lose the election?
H
Let's watch the game. Elbows up.
Chip
All right.
J
Elbows up. Good hustle.
Chip
Come on.
H
Good puck passing.
Chip
Puck passing. Good. Another game that they excoriate them in that little skit. I love that. It's fantastic. There you go. Degrassi, that next generation. There you go.
Jeff
Oh, my God.
Chip
Was drinking the next generations. I don't know. I remember watching. Yeah, maybe, because I think there was like. That was like the next version of it, wasn't it? Or was that the one? I don't know. All I know is I used to have to sit through that and I was like, oh, God, you know, the acting.
Jeff
When was it? That was in the early 2000s, maybe.
Chip
2008, 7, 6, 2009. I don't know. Maybe Justin, Those with the grassy eye. And I was like, isn't that that kid? I'm like, isn't that the kid from that Degrassi show used to watch. Like, yeah, it is. Of course, my younger daughter, she's like, I don't know what. That. I don't know what you're talking about. I'm like, I know. You're. You're too young. You don't know. You don't know. It's an old person reference. So there you have it. And I love these videos that the, that the White House releases. This is the White House press secretary. Such a change. But this is her doing it. She does. It's supposed to be one minute long, but it's not. It's kind of like the Crypt. When I used to do the XRP minute, it was like three or four minutes. So here we go. But she gives a rundown of what happened.
D
Everybody, as you can hear, we are warming up for the White House Easter egg Roll, which will take place on Monday. But we did a lot this week, so let's go through it in the MAGA minute. This week, a number of companies announced massive investments, with Nvidia, Abbott Labs, and Honda among the list of companies investing billions of dollars in jobs right here in the United States. President Trump hosted President Bukele of El Salvador, Prime Minister Meloni of Italy, the 2024 NCAA football champions, Ohio State University, and the U.S. navy football team this week as well. And the border is still more secure than it has ever been. With Border Patrol recording its lowest Southwest border crossings in history, the president took actions to lower prescription drug prices, prevent illegal aliens from obtaining your Social Security benefits, and removed burdensome regulations that were stifling the US Commercial fishing industry. Angel mom Patty Morin joined me from the podium to tell the story of her daughter's brutal murder at the hands of an illegal alien, while simultaneously calling out her senator, who flew to El Salvador to retrieve an MS.13 gang member, wife beater, and illegal alien. President Trump remains committed to putting the American people first, you and your family first. And we will never waver in that commitment. We'll see you for next week's MAGA minute, and we are wishing everybody a blessed and happy Easter Sunday.
Chip
I gotta tell you, Jeff, this. She's 27 years old, and she's probably one of the best press secretaries we've ever seen. She always comes with the receipts. You. You can't ever get one up on her. She's incredibly prepared. You compare that to Jean Pierre or whatever her name was. I mean, for the last one, she was always. She never knew anything.
Jeff
Yeah.
Chip
What's funny is that she came recently, just announced that she never even met with Biden, that, that she met the staff and they put the stuff together and she'd always, yeah, President Biden said this and that, and she wasn't even meeting with him. So, I mean, it's pretty sad, but I mean, that. That would come out after the fact. But still, I mean, that's. It's. It's bizarre to me, the whole thing all together, man. It's just bizarre as all hell. Paul revered. The date was yesterday. 200 years ago, Paul Revere made that famous ride. So the White House put this little video together, which I think is pretty good, because maybe, maybe people outside the US don't know about the Paul Revere ride, but I thought they did a nice job on this. Here it is.
D
Listen, my children, and you shall hear of the midnight ride of Paul Revere. On the 18th of April in 75, hardly a man is now alive. He said to his friend, if the British march by land or sea from the town to night, Hang a lantern or loft in the belfry arch of the north church tower as a signal light 1 if by land in 2 if by sea, and I on the opposite shore will be. So through the night rode Paul Revere, and so through the night went his cry of alarm to every Middlesex village and farm A cry of defiance and naught to fear, A voice in the darkness, a knock at the door and a word that shall echo forevermore. For borne on the night wind of the past, through all our history to the last in the hour of darkness, witness in peril and need the people will awaken and listen to hear the horrifying hoof beats of that seed in the midnight message of Paul Revere.
Chip
Pretty. Pretty cool. That was also on the. That was. That was written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. He put that. Obviously. He put together the. That's what the text was. Right. Obviously. It's a little bit of a rhyming poem there. But that was, uh, Longfellow to put that together. But that was also on the official WhiteHouse.gov site, which is incredible. So it's been, you know, a little bit of history bringing. It's a totally different vibe than we've seen in years past, even from the. Trump's first. But one of the things. His first term. But he's done a really good job of hiring. In some cases, the vetting's not so good. I think they have to have Laura Loomer on the vetting committee. She does a great job of breaking some of these people that have Just been horrendous, Jeff. But it might be time for our drawing, I think if we're here. Are we ready to do our our drawing here? Are we ready? Let's do it. Let me put this up, guys.
Jeff
Oh, look, it does work. I was the expose I thought were being blocked, but it does work. They just. When you're on X, you can't see any comments at all.

Podcast Summary: "Why Women Are Turning to Crypto—While Democrats Keep Attacking It"
Podcast Information:
Introduction
In this engaging episode of On The Chain, hosts Jeff and Chip delve into the rising trend of women embracing cryptocurrency, challenging the stereotypical "crypto bro" narrative. Simultaneously, they explore the persistent political opposition from Democratic entities targeting the crypto industry. The discussion is enriched with insights from listeners and commentary on recent political developments affecting major crypto players like Coinbase.
Women in Cryptocurrency
Statistics and Demographics Jeff opens the conversation by highlighting a surprising statistic: "One third of all crypto holders in the US are actually women" (00:01). This challenges the common perception that cryptocurrency is predominantly a male-dominated field. Chip echoes this sentiment, emphasizing the diversity within the crypto community: "Crypto isn't just for bros… Nearly a third of US crypto holders are women" (06:04).
Diverse Use Cases and Benefits The hosts discuss how various groups, including moms, artists, and teachers, are leveraging cryptocurrency in their daily lives. Chip notes, "Moms, artists, teachers, and even more benefiting from crypto in their daily lives" (06:18). They emphasize that crypto offers a range of utilities beyond investment, such as connecting communities and providing new ways to donate and receive payments.
Community and Education The National Cryptocurrency Association, spearheaded by Ripple and legal officer Stu Alderete, is highlighted for its efforts to educate and support a diverse crypto audience. Jeff mentions, "Ripple's actually doing this and putting this together. They're kind of behind this whole thing" (09:02), underscoring the importance of educational initiatives in fostering mainstream adoption.
Listener Participation Listener Jay Washington shares his experience, stating, "I have a crypto chat group with seven girlfriends" (08:10), illustrating the growing female presence in crypto discussions and initiatives.
Political Opposition from Democrats
Ongoing Legal Battles A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to the political attacks on the crypto industry, specifically focusing on the Oregon Attorney General's actions against Coinbase. Jeff criticizes the move, stating, "Oregon's Attorney General is resurrecting the dead by bringing a copycat case of the SEC's enforcement action against Coinbase" (14:19). Chip adds, "Paul Gruwell says the case is meritless and the company will fight it" (22:20), highlighting Ripple's stance against what they perceive as politically motivated lawsuits.
Critique of Regulatory Bodies The hosts express frustration with regulatory bodies led by figures like Gary Gensler, describing them as lacking a moral compass. Jeff remarks, "We have never been closer to bipartisan legislation for digital assets. This backward lawsuit does nothing to protect consumers or solidify American leadership" (14:19). Chip further criticizes the persistent influence of the SEC, noting, "Gary just doesn't go away" (22:22).
Impact on the Crypto Industry Jeff emphasizes the detrimental effect of such lawsuits on the crypto ecosystem, stating, "What we're finding out is the Democrats can't have something decentralized because the control is taken out of it" (09:02). They argue that political interference hampers innovation and the mainstream adoption of blockchain technologies.
Community Backlash and Support The episode features strong support from the crypto community against these political maneuvers. John Deaton, a prominent figure in crypto law, vocally criticizes Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield, calling his actions a "pure political stunt and utter waste of taxpayer money" (16:24). This solidarity showcases the resilience of the crypto community in the face of regulatory challenges.
Broader Implications and Future Outlook
Legislative Landscape Jeff and Chip discuss the potential for favorable bipartisan legislation that could provide a more stable and supportive environment for digital assets. They highlight the importance of unified legislative efforts to counteract fragmented and politically driven lawsuits.
Technological Advancements The conversation briefly shifts to the impact of AI on various industries, including medicine and programming. Jeff elaborates on how AI can revolutionize fields by increasing efficiency and reducing human error: "AI does it in a split second… now AI sorts through a hundred different studies" (16:24). This discussion underscores the broader technological shifts that intersect with blockchain and crypto advancements.
Call to Action and Community Engagement The hosts encourage listeners to stay informed and engaged, promoting educational resources and community-driven initiatives. They also highlight upcoming giveaways and interactive segments aimed at fostering a sense of community among listeners.
Conclusion
Jeff and Chip wrap up the episode by reiterating the significance of women in the crypto space and the ongoing resistance from political factions aiming to regulate and control the industry. They advocate for continued education, community support, and legislative efforts to ensure the sustained growth and mainstream adoption of cryptocurrency.
