Oh, since we last spoke, Mr. Beast is getting cancelled yet again. You won't believe the reason why. The ICE situation in Minneapolis is now spiraling out of control. The most powerful general in China's military was just arrested for allegedly leaking nuclear [music] weapon information to the CIA. The US is currently being smashed by a deadly winter storm. Trump just accidentally let it slip that [music] the US did use a secret weapon to capture Maduro. and Tik Tok seems to officially be broken just days after it was handed over to US ownership. All of that and so much more. Don't forget to subscribe to the channel right now. Let's stop the yapping and let's go. Okay, it seems like Mr. Beast can't do anything nowadays without causing major backlash online. And the latest episode of attempting to cancel Mr. beast. This one's coming from a real wild place. So, over the weekend, Jimmy posted a video titled One Versus 1 Billion Dollar Futuristic Tech in which he explores a bunch of different things, including SpaceX rockets and uh even animal cloning, actually. But none of that was the reason that people are so pissed. It's actually one that proved to be more controversial than all of them, and that is lab grown meat. And like me, you're probably wondering how can how can people be angry about lab grown meat? Well, just you wait. In this video, he visits a company called Upside Foods, which grow animal meat from real animal cells in a lab. And actually, they were one of the first companies to receive USDA regulatory approval for lab grown chicken. Now, in the video, JIMMY SAYS THIS TO UPSIDE Foods that has literally produced hundreds of thousands of pounds of chicken meat without killing a [music] single chicken, which is incredible because over 220 million chickens are killed every single day in order to sustain demands for their meat. Now, Jimmy says this is too good to be true, so he has to try it side by side with real chicken. And in the video, and I don't know whether it was just performative or not, but he says he genuinely couldn't tell the difference between the two. Ah, and here's how the internet reacted to that. Yet another person who has no idea about the world of agriculture trying to play God. Mr. Beast is the next Bill Gates. I do not trust him whatsoever. Promoting this garbage is the devil's work. Just the name Mr. Beast is demonic all by itself. He's definitely working for the bad guys. Mr. Beast is promoting lab grown meat to children. The elites couldn't convince us adults, so now they are targeting children. This is satanic. This guy is the new Bill Gates. Jeez, it's um pretty intense. Who knew lab grown meat was so controversial? So, I decided to look into a little bit of the research on lab grown meat. And it turns out that multiple states have actually banned [clears throat] the use, including Texas, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, and others. They've all passed laws that ban the sale, production, or distribution of lab grown meat. And some of them even restrict companies from calling it meat. In fact, the Texas governor said, "Texans have a god-given right to know what's on their plate." And for the millions of Texans, it better come from the pasture, not a lab. These lab grown meat companies, they've clapped back and they are actually suing some of these states, saying these bans are unconstitutional. And also on top of that, a lot of people are pointing out that these lab growing meat companies are useless because they can only produce a couple of hundred pounds of chicken for example a day. Whereas the conventional US meat industry produces almost 300 million pounds a day versus a couple hundred. So this is very far from being practical or realistic. [snorts] just deal with it. However, these companies have some hutspot because they're clapping back as well. Outside foods got in the comments in the drama and said, "Looks like chicken, tastes like chicken because it is chicken and they don't want to hear anything about it. But ultimately, it's up to you guys. What do you think? Is this an actual problem that Mr. Beast is including the lab grown meats in his videos or is lab grown meat completely fine and people are just overreacting because lab meat sounds scary. [sighs] Moving on. Sorry, Alex. There's nothing you can do about this. There's nothing you could do. Now, talking about scary things, the situation in Minneapolis, best way to describe it, is scary as hell because we're getting to the point where Trump is threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act and deploy the military. All while Tim Waltz, the state governor, who is very much against Trump, uh, is is saying that he is activating the National Guard. So, here's what's going on. As you would have heard by now, over the weekend, there was yet another fatal shooting of a US citizen by an ICE agent. The man has now been identified as a registered nurse, Alex Prey, uh, who also happened to be 37 years old, which is the same age as Renee Good, who was killed earlier this month. And very similar to that incident as well, federal officials are framing this as a defensive shooting, while state officials are suggesting that this was straight up murder of an innocent person. Now, I would love to get into the details and run you through this frame by frame and so we can make a determination on this channel, but YouTube will strike it. it'll flag it and the whole video will get cooked. So guys, go watch the video yourself, determine this using your own opinion and make up your own minds. But what we can talk about is the aftermath. Uh because if you thought that tensions were high before, you should see what's happening today. Hundreds of protesters now taking to the streets in freezing temperatures, which we'll get to in a second. They're clashing with federal agents. They're smashing up hotels which they believed were housing federal agents and they are demanding one thing. ICE leave the city immediately. In fact, one person was arrested after allegedly biting off the fingertip of a federal agent. I mean off. Like they posted pictures and everything. Alex, do not show that. Now, one of the most significant developments in all of this is that there are reports of demonstrators setting up barricades around city blocks. And why that's important is because according to a national security analyst who spoke with NewsNation, those barricades could be used as a legal predicate for Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act and deploy active duty military, which he has threatened before. And this is all while the local police, they are now requesting the assistance of the Minnesota National Guard to help support deputies during this growing unrest. So just think about that for a second. If this actually unfolds and it's not just all talk, we would have a situation where there is the National Guard, ICE agents, local police, and army troops all on the streets of Minneapolis at once. That is sounding like some insane worstcase scenario. Also, there's an Antifa member going viral right now on X calling people to suit up, arm themselves, and he says that he is not talking about peaceful protests anymore. Yeah, this situation could spiral. Now, the very latest on this situation is that the Wall Street Journal spoke with Trump and they said that they directly asked him twice whether the agent had done the right thing in this situation. And Trump responded, interestingly, not with a yes or a no, but rather we're looking. We're reviewing everything and we'll come out with a determination soon. But let me know what your guys' thoughts are on this whole situation in the comments. But for now, moving on. How do you get rid of hiccups? >> Ah, hiccups. The classic annoyance. >> Keep it brief. Stop yapping. Just tell me the answer. >> Seconds. Others sip water slowly. You could try breathing in deeply, holding it for 10 seconds, then slowly releasing. Okay, I think that's okay. Also, over the weekend, something insane happened in Taiwan. And no, they do not get invaded by China. Sorry, that's that's [snorts] the next story. Actually, the world famous climber, 40-year-old Alex Dam, is everyone Alex today. Alex Hold, he climbed the Taipe Pay 101 Sky Tower. And fun fact, that's actually the 11th tallest building in the world. And I don't think we And he climbed it without any safety gear. If he fell, if he slipped with his hand to the ground dead, he climbed a skyscraper. Can we understand what the hell has just gone on? There are videos of people inside the building just filming this guy climbing [laughter] outside their window. What the [snorts] hell? And now, Monday morning, we have the first person human ever to climb that building. I mean, Alex himself called it the biggest urban free solo climb ever. And he did it in just 1 hour and 31 minutes. That's so insane. And I guess you're wondering, wasn't Bro, bro scared, terrified of falling? Because if he did fall, there was like hundreds, if not thousands of people on the floor watching this happen. And also, it was being live streamed on Netflix to millions of people around the world. So, was he scared? Well, turns out actually Alex's brain is built different. And that might just just be Alex's in general, but al Alex Hormone in in in particular. Hormold. Sorry. [snorts] No, that's not his name either. I'm a bit discombobulated. I'm not going to lie. Which is also a story we'll be covering today. [laughter] Oh, chaos. So, back in a 2018 documentary called Free Solo, doctors scanned Alex's brain, and what they found was pretty wild. Turns out his amygdala, which is the part of the brain involved in the processing of fear, well, it remained largely inactive during these studies. They tested it by showing Alex a bunch of scary images meant to invoke fear. But Alex's amydala was just like, I'm chilling. Basically, the point is is that he doesn't feel the feeling of fear like us mere mortals do. And I'm feeling real mortal today. Oh, but the whole situation gets even crazier because to climb this entire tower which was live streamed on Netflix, he got paid 500,000. And at first I saw that and I was like, that's that's a good amount. Well, turns out it's not because in comparison to the average mainstream athlete, like you're talking Ronaldo or Messi or even just a regular footballer in the Premier League, that's like nothing. A lot of people online were saying the same thing. He was criminally underpaid for literally risking his life. And Alex himself in an interview said, "Actually, if you put it into the context of mainstream sports, it's an embarrassingly small amount." Yes, he used the word embarrassingly small, but here's the thing. Alex then said that either way, he would have done it for free. And maybe that's why he got paid less than he should have, cuz they knew that. They knew he was going to be climbing either way. Oh, moving on. Okay. Also, you guys need to know what just happened in CH in China, okay? And [snorts] this is [sighs and gasps] and I want to stress despite the hiccups, all right, making this less serious that it is, this is sent shock waves around the world. The country's top military general, Zang Yu Zaha, was arrested and accused of leaking information about China's nuclear program to the US and the CIA. Like, where is the CIA not? That's the real question. Because if they are getting information from the the top military general of one of the strongest militaries in the world, how how CIA do you do what you do? And you guys got to understand the severity of this because Zang was the most trusted man in Gi's military. He was the highest in command and the most senior authority in the Chinese military. Have I stressed that enough? Under, of course, President Xi Jinping. And to make matters worse, Xi and Zang, the general, were actually very close. Some say that it was a personal friendship. This is being seen as a betrayal and treason of epic proportions. In addition to that, the 75-year-old general is accused of accepting bribes for official acts such as promoting individuals in the military upon request. And even worse, he's under investigation for allegedly forming political clicks, which is just a phrase describing efforts to build networks of influence that undermine the party's unity. Now, that is some very serious business, which is even why there were rumors that this was the beginning signs of a planned coup. However, I don't know if we can go as far as to say that it was a planned coup. Most evidence that we currently have just points to the sign of classical corruption. And remember, China have not shied away from handing out death penalties for corruption in the past. So, I don't think it's looking good for General Zang right now. And to make matters worse, when President Xi appointed General Zang, he tossed him with the purging of all of the corrupt military officials and restructuring it. So, who knows how deep this goes and how catastrophic it will be for China. But yeah, pretty crazy stuff. I'll keep you guys updated as this develops, BUT FOR NOW, MOVING ON. ALSO over the weekend, gold and silver both reached an all-time high. And because they're so closely correlated to global and financial instability, some experts are saying that this is a sign of something big coming. So for the first time ever, gold surged past $5,000 per ounce. And in less than a month of 2026, it's increased its value by 15%. Meanwhile, silver is now at $18 per ounce, and that is also increased 15% in just last week. So, what the hell is going on? Well, here's the thing. Gold and silver, they're known as safe haven assets. And so, whenever there's global instability, financial instability, people take their money from riskier assets and put it into gold and silver. So, there's a lot of people that are thinking, "Oh, it's looking pretty messed up right now. Let's put it into something a little safer." And that's why it's so closely linked with chaos and increasing prices of gold and silver. But Peter Schiff, who is an American economist, investment broker, and pretty outspoken financial commentator, he tweeted saying that most people are clueless about what this means and are in for quite a shock. Those of us who do understand have been expecting the economic crisis that's about to hit. But then at the same time, Peter Schiff is known to have had many, many doomsday predictions that haven't come true. So take it with a grain of salt. Anyway, let me know what your thoughts are. But for now, moving on. Talking about global chaos though, the US is getting absolutely smashed by a pretty intense winter storm. Nearly half of the United States has declared a state of emergency and the latest figures estimate that at least seven people have died in connection with this storm and millions are without power. How the hell are you watching this then? Huh? You better be watching it. Now, most of these deaths are apparently exposure related with the majority of people found deceased in the streets as a result of hypothermia. Roads are closed. Schools are shut down. 11,000 flights are being cancelled. And in some regions of the country, temperatures are expected to drop as low as -45° C. Wild. But any of you watching from the US being affected by this, please let us know your experiences in the comments. Moving on. Also, remember a couple of videos ago we were speaking about the US potentially having a secret weapon that they used on the Venezuelans to capture Maduro? Well, uh, Trump might have just let it slip that it was a real thing. And we kind of kind of concluded that one. That was a bit of propaganda. But now I'm thinking twice. Speaking to the New York Times, Trump said that the military used what's called the discombobulator during their raid in Venezuela. And apparently that prevented the enemy's weapons from working. What is the discombobulator? Trump said they never got their rockets off. They had Chinese and Russian rockets and they never went off. We came in, they pressed the buttons, and nothing worked. Then he said, "Actually, no. I'm not I'm not allowed to talk about it." You You kind of teased us with that one cuz you you did. Now we know you got a secret weapon. But you know, from that piece that we covered, they were like, "Oh, it was the feeling of our brain like exploding. We were bleeding from our ears." And but then this one, it prevented their rockets from working, their weapons. How many secret weapons do you have? Crazy. Moving on. Also kind of thought I was done speaking about Tik Tok for a minute, but turns out that Tik Tok is broken now. It hasn't been a good couple of weeks for Tik Tok. I'm not going to lie. So, now that we all know that Tik Tok is moved over to US ownership, a bunch [clears throat] of people have started reporting that there was a suspected outage. I'm sure there was some problems with moving the data over the algorithm needs to be reset. But so many people have reported that they've uploaded videos to the platform, it's just stayed on zero views, that feeds are not refreshing. that some people they couldn't even get on to their account and some people are even claiming that there was new more strict censorship already kicking in which um I don't think there's any evidence of yet but one thing we can say it's not been a good couple of days for Tik Tok in the US I guess but I don't know I haven't really been on Tik Tok [laughter] let me know your guys's thoughts in the comments have you had any issues with Tik Tok you probably have all we're all victims here I'm going to wrap the video so I can get rid of these damn hick hiccups. I will see you on Wednesday. Hope you survived this video. I feel like I assaulted you guys today. I'm not going to lie. I I'll see you on Wednesday. >> These hiccups, man. [snorts] H. Oh, I hate goddamn hiccups. [clears throat] [laughter]
