Oh, since we last spoke. Even Mr. Beast is now getting involved in the Roger Jackson situation. This student's life was almost ruined simply because he brought an umbrella to college. Donald Trump is about to do something that no US president has ever done before. The UK are now debating whether it's racist or not to fly the England flag. And Kaisenat has just done something truly mindblowing. all of that and so much more. Subscribe to the channel or else I will come to your city and clean up your crime. That'll make sense in a second. But let's stop the yapping and let's Come on, sing it with me now. Get correcting. >> Okay, let's start with this one because there's many situations that Mr. Beast has got involved with almost every viral trend. But this is not exactly a viral trend, I guess. But he's involved nonetheless. He just tweeted saying, "If anyone connected to Steuart Smith, the wrestler, uh, knows a way that I can help, please reach out. If his kid is a fan, which I didn't even know that he had a kid, that's that's even more rough. The fact that his kid's got to go through this, too. Bro, no child wants to see their father go through that. That's wild. Sorry. Get back to it. Or I can help with hospital bills. I don't know, but I'll help." Now, also in the latest updates, we've got the first pictures of Stuart in hospital, which is posted by his brother, who says that he is in stable but critical care. He said that they themselves have never set up a GoFundMe, but many others have for him, like this one, for example, which have already got way over their $60,000 target for to pay for his hospital bills. As of recording, which is Wednesday, Roger has still not been arrested, which is I don't know how that's even possible so far. But what we do know is that LAPD officers have filed a report and detectives have been assigned to this case. But what's crazy is that that night the LAPD said that they were sent to that location after receiving a call that was classed as attempted murder. But they later classified the incident after they got there as felony battery, which if you're wondering, in California where this took place, the common sentencing range for felony battery is 2 to 4 years in state prison, a fine up to $10,000, or probation with up to a year in county jail. We also got an update that Douglas Malow, the actual uh wrestler who pulled Raja off of Stuart, has since said that he places heavy blame on AJ Mana. That's the wrestler who invited Raja to the wrestling event in the first place. and also was heard before the event telling Roger, >> you [ __ ] give him his receipt. Remember what a receipt is. Give him that receipt. I'll tag this [ __ ] >> Now, Douglas Mala also claimed that AJ Mana had a problem with Stuart and that he essentially used Frager to do his dirty work and as a result has now ruined two people's lives. Now, AJ Mana has now responded to this. He had a story up. He then deleted it in which he said he was in character and speaking the language of wrestling when he told Raja to get his receipts which many interpreted as encouraging Raja or at least giving him permission to hit Stuart for real. Now I mean I guess it goes without saying that there is no form of communication that would give someone permission to do what he did. But AJ Mana claims that this was a situation that just got out of hand due to miscommunication. So yeah, what do you guys think? Is there any scenario of this where the full responsibility is not placed on Raja or is Raja's future simply cooked and it's only a matter of time before he gets arrested, charged, and he loses everything that he was working towards? Let me know in the comments. But moving on, also since we last spoke, the BBC just dropped one of the most bizarre headlines I've seen in a while. Let me read you this. Trump threatens to deploy troops to Baltimore to clean up their crime. Ah, now if you are not from America, threatening someone to clean up their crime doesn't really sound that threatening. But there is a reason America is our favorite TV show. Because their plot lines, they're never that simple. So, let me tell you why. Uh, many people don't want Trump to come to their city and clean up their crime. As we've seen in Trump's first test city, Washington DC, federal agents have been deployed all over the streets and they've embedded themselves with local officers. They've been assisting in arrests, searches, and warrant executions. And guess what? According to Washington DC police data, in the first couple of weeks of this, it has resulted in an overall drop in crime. In fact, they didn't have a single homicide in 12 days. I think their record for the last couple of decades was like 17 days. So, that's up there. Now, to be fair, violent crime in DC was trending downwards before this, but that's getting into the weeds. Point is, on Monday, Trump signed an executive order to essentially do what he did in DC to cities across the country. In fact, this specialized National Guard unit would quote, "be ready to be deployed anywhere across the country within less than 24 hours notice." But here's the thing. With the potential drop in crime that that could come with, there are some who express concern that to achieve this, Trump essentially had to seize control over the entire DC police force. And many residents of these states consider that to be a slippery slope to unchecked power. Not only because no president has ever done this before, but also these federal agents and national guard units, they wouldn't necessarily answer to local government. they would rather answer to the Trump administration. And that's a scary thought for some of these people in these states. But others would argue that it's a much scarier thought to walk the streets at night knowing you're not safe. So I guess in a roundabout strange bizarre way in America, it is possible to threaten someone to clean up their crime. I told you America's plots, they're uh thick. But the question is, which scenario would you take? the lower crime which comes with troops and federal agents all over your city or the way it is where crime will be a little bit higher but you don't have Trump and his federal agents in your city. Let me know which one. Moving on. Oh, also since we last spoke, this student's life is almost ruined because he brought a freaking umbrella to college. Shouldn't have done that. Basically, on Sunday, panic broke out at the South Carolina University after an active shooter alert was sent out to everyone saying, "You need to evacuate. you need to barricade and you need to defend yourself. Turns out though, this wasn't a real shooter. There never was a real shooter. It was just two prank calls, which side note, prank calling about this is absolutely wild in the Big 25, especially in America. But anyway, in all of the chaos and the panic, a lot of people started taking videos of this guy who was simply minding his own business, walking along, probably with a smile on his face. I can't see it, but I imagine it. He's who doesn't walk with a smile on their face with an umbrella? That would look weird. But all these people taking videos of him thought that what he was holding was a gun cuz like why did your umbrella have a strap? I'm sorry to say. Another weird point. But anyway, they thought that that umbrella was a gun and that he was the shooter they were being alerted about. >> No [ __ ] way. No [ __ ] way. No way. And to make matters worse, this video was posted on social media and it went viral to the point where it was even re-shared by freaking Congresswoman Nancy Mace, who described him in all of his appearances, shorts, his skin color, uh, to her half a million followers. Now, keep in mind, these images were never confirmed or shared by officials. But despite this, this poor brother became a school shooter online for a few hours. I mean, can you just imagine if you know how America is, someone decides, "Hey, yo, I've got a gun. Let me take matters into my own hands." That would become the deadliest umbrella in history. That's it. I I I'm calling it now. My executive order is this brother deserves an official apology. Moving on. Also, this week, something big is happening in the UK right now. Now, if you live here, you would have already seen it everywhere. But if you don't, you got to know that England flags have been popping up all over the country. And while that might not seem to most as uncontroversial, a country flying its own flag in the UK, it's kind of rare outside of sports competitions. And believe it or not, it has sparked a pretty heated debate over whether it is racist to fly the England flag or not. Now, this has been dubbed Operation Raise the Colors. And they have started appearing in pretty much anywhere a flag can be hung. Lamp posts, bridges, over highways. They've even been painted over crossings, roundabouts, sheep. Now, people who support this operation often argue that raising the flag is about being able to be proud to have British traditional identity, which they argue has felt like it's been suppressed in the country over the last few years. Others, however, say that when they look at this flag, they see white supremacy. And when it's hung up everywhere, it's just a constant reminder that they should go back to their country. I mean, it's to the point where there are debates on national television that if this country wants a flag that is not seen as oppressive or is representative of modern-day Britain, that they should change the flag. Now, this situation only got more controversial when the report started coming out that some local government started removing these flags, citing safety concerns. So, it's kind of a bit of a tricky situation here. You got on one side people saying that this England flag represents pride in British identity and history where there's another group that say well a lot of British history is marked by oppression and this flag serves as a reminding symbol. So while to many of you it might seem like just a little argument over a flag. What's the big deal? In reality this is much more than that. This is a fight over what will be the identity of modernday Britain. But I'd love to hear you guys thoughts in the comments. Is it racist to fly the England flag or not? Moving on. Also this week, if you have spare bedrooms in your house or your apartment, you may soon need to pay tax, extra tax for that, because that is exactly what is being proposed by Australian lawmakers because they have a radical plan to address their current housing and affordability crisis. So during the country's economic reform roundt last week, one of the several proposals that they made would work by essentially disincentivizing or punishing people for having spare bedrooms. For example, if you're a family of three, but you got five bedrooms, those two extra spare bedrooms, well, you're going to pay tax for those. Or if you don't want to pay the tax, move down into a home which where you don't have those spare bedrooms. You see? And the thing is, Australia has to propose these pretty radical plans because they got a pretty radical problem. They simply don't have enough homes. That has caused the average house price to skyrocket and making it really unaffordable for the younger generation. And to make it worse, they consistently fall short of their annual target of 240,000 new homes. And so because of that, they now need to find ways of making more space with the homes that they do have. But you know the people that this is disproportionately impacting which is the older generation. They argue that this is intrusive and that they only have those empty bedrooms for guests or for storage. And they also say that it's unfair to charge those people who have retired. But what do you guys think? Is this too far or is it necessary so that everyone has a home? Let me know. Moving on. Also, we got to speak about this because it has got people absolutely furious right now. So, a few days ago, Israel bombed a hospital in Gaza. And when first responders arrived, I'm talking ambulance crews, journalists, Israel bombed that hospital for a second time. And all of this was caught on TV. Now, this second strike killed over 20 people. And that included five journalists, a number of health workers, and emergency response crews. And this has made global news because a number of those journalists worked for international media as well like Reuters, AP, Alazer and also because of the specific nature of these targets because the first one hit a balcony that is used by reporters for an elevated view. But then also because of the second attack that specifically hit ambulance crews, first responders, people that were trying to help. They were not soldiers or part of this war. Now Israel has responded to this backlash. They say that they do not target journalists and they regret harm to any uninvolved individuals. Love to hear your guys' thoughts about this situation. But moving on. Okay, we got to talk about this situation because everything we thought we knew about cancel culture has changed. We don't know nothing anymore because today we woke up to the news that Cracker Barrel, they folded and it hasn't even been a week. In fact, they apologized and they said, "Our new logo is going away and our old-timer will remain." Now, that is a very different response as to what we saw with American Eagle. Because despite them being constantly blasted about their ad with Sydney Sweeney, they refused to apologize. And because of that, we thought, damn, even companies are refusing to apologize, they were the quickest to fold. And in fact, if you look at their stock today, it's actually up after the ad controversy. So, just when we started to get an idea, we thought, "Oh, maybe cancel culture is dead." Well, guess what? It made a huge ass return. Because an even crazier twist about all of this is that it didn't even come from the left. It actually came from the conservatives who have been pissed about cancel culture for years. Are we now seeing a situation when the right is better at cancel culture than the left? I bet boardrooms across the country are panicking cuz everything they thought they knew, oh, gone. Even the freaking president piled in on this situation, saying their new logo sucked. And after they changed it, guess what? Their stock jumped millions within pre-market trading. So, I guess the bizarre question is where does cancel culture go from here? Moving on. And lastly, Kaisenat, he just announced that his third and final Mafiaon stream will begin on Monday, 1st of September. Now, for those who don't know, the Mafiaon streams are basically 24-hour streams for a full month. And this is all to gain as many subs as possible, but also to make money, of course, uh, and also to raise money for different causes. Like last year, for example, he pledged 20% of everything that he made, which allegedly was in the tens of millions. And he said that that 20% which would have been in the millions would go towards building schools in Nigeria which actually a full year on. I wonder maybe I'll check up on that actually do a bit of research cuz I'd love to know the progress on that and if it actually happened remind me. But what he has planned for his third and final one is actually insane and it shows how far the space of content creation has come because to announce Mafia Thon 3, he got a freaking ad on the Las Vegas sphere. And keep in mind, like reportedly that costs around $450,000 to run an ad for a day. So, I don't know if it'll be that much, but it will be expensive as >> corn casserole. >> Content creators don't usually dip their toe into the traditional marketing because they've already got enough. So, pretty wild. And then on top of that, for his trailer for Mafiaon 3, he hired actor Michael B. Jordan, who is one of the most expensive actors in the world right now. And I mean, just look at the freaking production of this thing. He also said that he's going to try and hit a target of 1 million new subs, which has never been done before. And also that if he does it, he will cut off his hair. And we've never seen Kaisenat without dreads. But the main reason I even wanted to speak about this is just to highlight how far our space, the space that you are watching right now, has come. Content creators are quickly moving over into entire media conglomerates, which is where News Daddy will be one day. One day we will compete with the BBC's, the CNN's. Trust me. And so for those people who are at the very edge and they are paving the way, you you got to respect it. Anyway, I look forward to seeing what he's got planned for the final Mafia thon, but I think I think you I think we're all caught up. Hope you guys are having a good week so far. Good old midweek point. We're we're so close to the end. So I hope you don't miss me too much, but I will see you again on Friday for the final full week roundup. Enjoy the rest of your week and I will see you then. [Music]
