It was shaped by enlightenment ideals, reason, liberty, and freedom of conscience. The belief that power comes from we the people, not a divinely appointed ruler, And while these ideals have not yet been fully perfected, they created something powerful, a framework that has expanded rights and freedoms over time Now, those freedoms and your rights are under attack. We're seeing growing efforts to blur the line between church and state, using public funds to promote religion, putting Ten Commandments into classrooms, and pushing a version of America that leaves out too many people. As our nation approaches its two hundred fiftieth anniversary, the Freedom F Religion Foundation is working to protect the Constitution, defend secular government, and ensure that freedom continues to expand everyone because America isn't just where we started.

How about you I'm good. had a good juneteenth. Okay. A lot of plans, barbecue, DJ set, drank too much of the barbecue and went home. Did you DJ? Oh, hell noe. No no. Well, you said DJ set. It's juneenth. I'm not here to perform or do labor. This is my day to enjoy the fruits of other people's labor If you're working on juneteenth as a black a take where you try to be like down, but it's just the most of elitest you try to. Yeah. if through the conditions of living in the United States of America, you also happen to have to work on juneteenth, then you should take a real good long hard look at yourself. If you somehow haven't overcome then you shouldn't enjoy Juneenth No D didid you do anything I did work. yeah. I did shows. yeah. I was entertaining. Tap dancing for the white man on T. No it was a it was a good uh couple shows, had a good weekend and then have been looking forward to this. Are you hyped for this week? You got a lot of stuff. What's going on. I mean, that's. Sometimes you have too yeah, sometimes you have too many things that are happening and Especially when you pick one, it becomes hard because then you pick the one that you're attached to, that you're like, oh, we'll talk about this tomorrow and then something will happen overnight. The thing right now people are talking about is the reflecting fool. Y I love. H you you've been to DC? I've been to DC and I will also be talking about the Relecting pool for two weeks, at least likeike in group chats in updates because the updates are worse than the story I because with me with the Reflection fil, like when it first started, I honestly was like, you know, look It's a pool I've dealt with you know, pools and having to upkeep stuff before and yeah, sometimes you get algae, right Now though, I was like, Ohh, Dg, this is you singularly messed this up. It should not. You insert yourself in a way that only messed it up so much. becausecause no one remembers what it looked like before you wanted to fix it. Yeah. We just remember what it looks like today. I have never thought about this thing. I will also tell you right now, Trump is not a problem solver because This man is over here Oh no, the reflecting pool Antifa did it, whatever Algae blooming in the pool And you got the number one algae eater in your cabinet. G RK over there. man That man would take one look at the reflective pool and be like, S He eats it all and somehow it fixes his voice iss like that was it. That was that was it. Wow, whoa. Turns out some just had to grab the thing in my throat. Turns out I'm British. N. Yeah, because even when they were pouring the peroxide in there, I was like, oh, y'all, I don't know if that's good. L like now I'd be scared to walk Yeah, because now I'm like, I don't know what chemicals. you could make mustard gas on accident and just kill everybody Andy you heard about the duckling? Oh, I saw that. That's that honestly, that was like the moment where I was like, o, this is bad. I don't think you should be dying in the reflecting for. I'll tell you right now too That that Duckling is going to somehow do so much more damage than anything else this week Like like us being on the knife's edge of global disaster, not just us. I know that as the U. S, we think that we're the only country that's ever existed, but like like the world. is having gas problems right now, oil problems right now off of this conflict. And I I'm telling you right now that's single duckling is going to move the needle more than the global crisis that's that's incoming. But like the paint coming off the bottom is nasty as The paint off paint coming off the bottom. That's what made me feel like Becauseuse I don't get hit with like patriotism that often. It's like During the World Cups. Yeahah And like what other countries talk a little too much yet. I'm like, All right, Chill, that's my thing But when the paint came off, I was like This is the most hood shit in the world. Can I tell you right now? the paint coming off doesn't happen in a regular pool. No, I didn't know that was possible. I also didn't know it was possible. The paint coming off is the most ratchet like what's the what's not just not just paint coming off is and dissolving Once huge chunks of paint were coming off that you could hold in your hand. I was like, oh, we're not a country anymore. Even like MAGA people who are looking at the pool, they're al Damn. Like even they were like, I can't. I can't, I can't even, I can't abide this., this looks bad. Yeah. Oh right after we had yeah, the FMA fight I'm Sander. we're like about to have flamingos at Cheb's on center bllocks. There's going be. It's we're starting to act like like like Trump's remodeling of DC does look ost apocalyptic. I was about to say, it's going to be like I am Legend. Will Smith. is to be you driving around Talking to mannequins. Imagine if I am Legend had a busy street, that's what DC will look like with more Trump ears. Like it'll just be a dude with his dog. He doesn't need to talk to mannequins because there's so many people standing around that don't have a job because all the jobs been given to AI. We tried to sue. We tried to sue, but remember also the big beautiful bill is a clause about suing companies and slowing down the U. S.' progress in the AI field. So You know what also? because like the only times I see the reflecting pool as someone who doesn't live DC is like in photos because there'll be all those historic events near the pool Like, MOK's big speak. I was just a vagard of MOK being like I would Oh no I' Just getting distracted by how gross it is. Dude because here's the thing S ponds, some lakes, rivers green Like it does happen like algae is naturally occurring. Yeah when you when you Promised bllue anditss green It somehow makes it look more green than like it it's actually ten times greener than it probably is. like in our minds's it's ten times greatreer than it actually is because we know it's supposed to be blue or at the very best at the very at the very like best Super clear with a blue bottle. Yeah Now if the water was blue, let's let's say for a second that they had put blue. coloring in the reflective pool. We'd still be like, wow, the water so clear since the bottom. I think they're going to try That' actually I may try that But then I don't know what, I'm not good at color theory. What is green and blue make? It's gonna to be like purple or something? I mean, I know red and blue make purple. I feel like it's gonna make like a sort of like cyan purple. This is just an aside. I do feel incredibly insecure, not knowing what colors mix to make what color. I feel like somehow like everyone else that in preschool whatever, but my schools didn't because I'm from Florida. Yeah. So like they'll be like this is a very rare thing, but times in my life and' be like, oh, you know what this this color makes it I'm just like I feel so embarrassed. Red and blue. you know what that means It literally it makes me feel like I'm the guy who has to go. It's to your left. That's how I feel with color. I dont it's just a side note of my insecurity. No, I feel that way with directions. L like I feel really insecure when people ask for directions and I can't tell them if it's north or east or whatever. Like I know I know that way. I know it's that way. like you go that way and then you take a left and then you whatever. But north, south, east and west is like the basis of of maps. I think in New York you should be able to do it because it's very simple What so what's like Freedom towers to the south? Okay And then that's how your is Al you just go It goes up Mmhm that way down that way. Yeah. now I know that when you're going when you're on like Manhattan. and you're point towards something, you could just say North or but the rest of the world. Oh no, I don't I have no frame of reference for where any of that is. I can do it As long as it's not noon because I'm like, okay, suns setets in the east or rise in the East and the West But if it's new, and I'm like, shit, I have no idea. This is where I have respect for the life. I feel like if you brought a cave manan back to those times and he had this conversation they'd be like, Ohh, they got they got dumber Well, no, I think the difference is if you brought that person back. We wouldn't know how do commommon things for them which would make us look very dumb And then they would burn all of us for being witches. Yeah, they'd be really strong. We wouldn't be able to stop them. Yeah, they they walk and eat well every day They're from before we called it organic. Yeah, they're all just like crossfood people too.. all the weak ones are dead Yeah, yeah. So if you meet anyone eighteen above, they're gonna rip your spine out of your Trso. Just for no reason. But yeah, I think that I've had this this insecurity too where I'm like home hand. If I could meet someone in my ancestry who was like a forager They'd be so disappointed that I didn't No how to take care of myself in like a from the earth sort of way. but then also I would show them an iPhone and they'd be like, the glass does that. Yeah. Do they even know what glass is?? They only see it if it got like like a lightning hit this beach. Yeah ye, if lightning hit the beach and made a design But even then you probably like ended up keeping that thing as a keepsake from like the time that God waved at you. Oh yeah, I think you could like take over the villagers by the Lord High stress environments and constant new cycles can lead to elevated core body temperatures, which directly prevents the body from entering deep sleep When the body is too warm, it cannot recover properly leading to persistent fatigue regardless of how many hours are spent in bed The ChiliPad two.o by SleepMe offers a scientific solution to this issue This water based mattress topper actively controls bed temperature from fifty five to one hundred and fifteen degrees throughout the night.

Speaking of blessings, this is not a transition. has nothing to do with the Iran war. But I've been thinking about this, we were talking about this upstairs, but like We're at the It's similar to the reflecting pool in the sense of like in the early days of the Iran of War I'm like, this is stupid. this is ridiculous But There's an easy way out of this, you know Now I'm legitimately like I'm scared existentially of what is going to happen Yeah with the was You know what did it for me was seeing Jie Vance. in Switzerland. I'm like The entire global economy rest of this Yeahah Gormless husk of a man who clearly cannot talk to people is just awkward as hell. He's the guy who I still remember the campaign video of him going to that like Dunkin donuts and just giving everybody out. Yeah, just being like, Oh y'all y'all glaze them here Its it's like every every interaction this man has is so uncomfortable. He's like Well, do you remember when he gave that speech and he was talking about This is how like Badly he's wired He was giving a speech and he was talking about talking to the troops beforehand and telling them a joke. and then And then they were like, oh, the crowd can't handle that. like that's too like politically incorrect of a joke. Yeah. But then he never says what the joke is He just tells a story about telling the joke and then the soldiers apparently, the soldiers who definitely exist, said to him, sir, don't tell that one. You crazy for this one, Jay. But it would be like if you said, you crazy for this one, Jay, and then the song was over. Yeah. like You know what it is, nextext track. Yeah. And then u Also the way that on camera he's been so awkward, he reminds me of Jim from the office if there was no camera to look at Yeah. like takeake all those moments where Jim looked at the camera in the office and make it a real world No documentary. It's like, What are you what are you looking at? Yeah, what what are you looking at and Why are you? We can see you. So what are you doing with your face right now And then also there's no ending to the episode. you just have to still be there. Yeah. The amount of speeches where this man has said something and there's clearly unexpected laugh or and just nothing happens. Yeah. I'm just like Oh and just as a performer, I just hold my chest like. Yeah.. I know that we do comedy but It's it's it's a rough thing to haveave someone believe in They're about to say so much They literally You can tell that the prompter says hole for laughter. Yeah. becausecause then even if they try to re passass the hole for laughter, you can see their eyes darting around for a second and they keep going's like And'm like you're performing for a cult who bomb in front of the people who are supposed to who are so emotionally invested in you that they would probably like, well, not you, but like your boss and the thing you're a part of And for even them to be like, I can't muster up I can't give this to you, dog. Yeah. No, and it's tough too because you can tell that he wants to be president one day. So he's very much being like This is a classic Trump deal. which is talking out both sides of his mouth Because on one hand, there's a classic Trump deal in that it's working guys, it's working. Y'all are killing. But also he's trying to right now ahead of twenty twenty eight ahead of twenty thirty two ahead of whenever he ends up running He's trying to plant the seed right now that this is a classic Trump deal. Yeah. he's not like, this is classic American ingenuity, this is classic This is a classic Trump deal specifically. I didn't have anything to do with this. I just found out about y'all. I'm mad too. Well, I think the way probleblem Trumps slash is like The way Trump gets past things is delay Right? Like with his court cases, he's like, I just got to keep delay to delaying and delay. il the election's over Or he has that refrain where he says Oh, it'll be done in two weeks. This situation The enemy is time. It's like you will run out of time. So pushing things off actually makes it way worse. So the only like tactic he has slus we have. hurts us. So I don't see the way out of this. Yeah, it's a lot like when you wake up, this has happened to me a couple of times where you don't set an alarm. and you are still blessed enough to wake up exactly in time to leave for the airport If you get up ack and brush your teeth right now and get an Uber, you'll make the flight. You'll run, but you'll make the flight But you would also love to risk it with five more minutes to sleep. Yeah. because it's ' the thing that is so dumbfounding. about a lie this is that It wasn't a problem before you got involved. Like actually at all. So I didn't know about the strait? Yeah. Yeah. I didn't know about this island. I did p Yeah Yeah. I did I didn't know about a bunch of stuff. and so This was all brought on by you. Then You You seem to have some sort of reluctance to doing the thing you say you're going to do, which is like attack attack attack, attack attack and also you don't want Any of the financial consequences of what comes with starting something with people you know nothing about. also think that with There's no difference to him And to be fair, a lot of people in the U. S. there's no difference to him in one Middle East nation versus another. Yeah. And so you look at Afghanistan and Iraq and you're like, oh, we went in there. we were basically able to do we want it. So that's what I'll do here He's like in the meanwhile,'s like, no, Iran is like way more powerful than these people than these other two countries. You know're way bigger This is very dumb, but what would have what would have clued me in a long time ago was in that they did a documentary, technically a documentary series, but they did a documentary about mr. Olympia And they were talking at one point, I don't even know what brought this song because it wasn't, it truly wasn't on my mind But they were talking about how it's mr. Olympia. It's supposed to be the strongest and most fit and B physiques in the world Yet so much of it comes from the US and maybe a little bit of Europe. And Iran was like the only country that had like three dudes enter. I was like That says a lot that in this documentary, we're like, why is this sport so US based? I know that we came up with it to a degree, but why aren't people flying from all over the world and everything to compete? And then you see some Europeans, so a couple Russians and a couple of like Bulgarians that are just huge And then three Iudians you' like wait a minute. If you if you had left it to sort of mainstream propaganda to tell you None of them should be this tall or strong or fit. Yeah And three of them, like I can't stress this enough. They they Iran, not as a nation, but just like happenstance, Iran was represented by three people versus Russia's one. That would give me pause as well Yeah, I feel like what what's happening here? because how do y all have the muscle technology Yeah to match You know the moment in the war that freaks me out. It was early on with another foreign mininister He's a guy who has like very nice hair. That's how I think about him It was also weird because it's like we were interviewing him on just like CBS while actively at war and he's just like, hello. Yeah. Yeah. It was very trippy. Yeah. Um The American anchor was like Are you nervous about a potential ground invasion from the US? And he just goes No We' are waiting for them justust like that. and I was like, That's concerning. That's that's concerning. That's a trap Yeah Mbe. Confidence freaks me out. A' like, I'm not concerned at all. Honestly, bring it because either they have something that you don't know about or it's like I don't give a fuck. No, truly. some of them have been waiting for this their entire life Yeah, which is the biggest difference between other people that we've mess with or countries we've invaded versus them. It's a difference between we did it on a whim and they've been planning for forty seven years So many contingency plans H haveave you seen a lot of like Like just in person Yeah just in person like a, stuff like that It's such an interesting thing when somebody When someone's being messed with, And they're like, you know what God must have sent you because I've been wanting to beat the plaster out of somebody. And they just take their shirt off immediately without any like buildu. They're just like like a half of a push and they're like ready. I talked about how one time there was Hey, these people that It was either a family dollar or dollar general or whatever They uh they We're getting robbed And they jump the robber do ro Imagine now imagine now you work at like family dollar dollar drill something like that pull the gun like like they like they pull the gun all the people working there and the people working there are like Oh yes. And you because now there's people probably call the police like don't call them yet. Let me my stop. That's witnesses. Yeah. And you know they're not doing it to defend the doll. You know they're not getting paid enough that they're doing this for work. This is for no, no This is to let it out. This because this this is because I have not been allowed to do this my entire time working here. I've wanted to every day You are every customer I've ever dealt with. Yeah. I amm going to unleash the will of God onto you. Imagine. imagine you are trying to rob a dollar store And then three people just Nike's at your back You start calling the police. I was robbing the store. They for my ass. Look, look, this is a disproortionate response. All right. I just what was in the register After the after the six stomp, I think you're the criminal now. Yeah y'all are hitting me with my gun. Oh my God. partart of me I think about If the US like truly is an oligarchy, right? then What's coming in terms of like the potential impacts of this war is so great. and it would harm so many businesses that I'm thinking about we see network No It's this movie where there's a anchor who kind of li has a mental break and he starts preaching and very populist and borderline in like religious ways on the news. But they keep him on the news because he's getting like really good ratings U And then at one point he says something that breaks up some oil deal or whatever, and it gets called into this room That's like a giant room, very dark, long table. And then there's a man there and he's like, You have messed with the laws of nature. And he just explains capitalism to him. he's like, Money has got out and it must be put back And you have interfered with that. And it' basically is like You can do whatever you want Yeah. You can do your little reflect and pool bullshit, but you don't touch the money. and now he is touching the money. So I'm like Where are the oligarchs stopping this? I'm just I just don't know Who is in charge of anything Yeah, but that's why I think the structure of it is that Oh here and abroad are far too comfortable with that sort of like patriarchal figure in place. The saavior. someomeone's going to come to. Yeah, yeah, it's like no, no. and also could have been true for a few people in recent memory to a degree person already said he doesn't care about you. Yeah. That's another crazy thing. I don't care about the financial situation of Americans. It's a crazy thing to say It's a crazy thing admit that should be a hot mic moment. I do not care. And his like Yeah, it's like he lives to not make a hot mic necessary Hees all of his hot mike moments to you out loud in your face. dayaytime. Like it would even be different if this was a dateline interview and it was at night and it's like, look, the president was tired and he misspoke whatever. This is first thing of the barder. And then he'll come up the day after. He's like, no, I meant that. Yeah. they'll like try to clean up it' like oh, he meant something. I's like,'m No, no. D't give for I don't think you heard me the first time America Read my lips. Yeah. Yeah. It just knocks That's why they couldn't send Trump to the negotiations. If you got a if you caught a photo of the negotiations of Rudian like pointing out a map in figures and Trump' just like It's just crazy. Oh my Godd 's like we allught to. like the whole arodeal is BS, but like A week ago when he was on stage, Eddie was like You know, I had to make a deal now. We were four weeks away from global catastrophe. I was like Mega don't tell them that. What what' what You never negotiation be like, oo, you really have me by the balls there. I'm like, we don't even have a deal.. You're just talking. And you just told the audience who wass like, o, if we wait three more weeks, we can get whatever we want There was a movie I can't remember what the movie was, but there was a movie where in this scene. this soldier who is like freshly in charge of is like, you scared? I'm scared too. Yeah, and it was all part of a bigger speech. It was all part of a bigger speech. but in my head, I was like that one line was unnecessary. That was like that was like I get it. It's like we all know, but don't say that. Yeah, you're humanizing yourself and you're you're bringing them into the moment. You're being vulnerable. I get that But now y'all have to run two gunfire. And so the fact that you start the speech, you scare I'm scared too. Hey just so you know Nobody's really in charge I don't know what I'm doing All'll started this one on a whim. Good luck, everybody. Just so you know This is all gonna be for nothing That's important that you get that in your head right now One, two, three, four Mont Santo. Raytheon. Remember who you're fighting for Naming Brothers Bank. Yeah Yeah. It's no it's disaster. Part of the destructive part of me is like, will' be interesting Sure. I've never been in depression I've been depressed, but I've never sat through like an economic downturn like this. Yeah. I'll see like recipes from the doughlub every once in a while, The water pie. They it's not that bad. What is water pie? It's pie crust water suugar chunks of butter then like some congealing agent And it's yeah L baking soda something like that. And then you bake it.

No it looks like lemon meringue. Yeah See, we we can do a depression. No. even N not even humoring it. just No, no, those things are not the same They're not the save at all We'll get some great literature. There was some great literature during the Great Depression.
