HAPPY HALLOWEEN, YA BEAUTIFUL BASTARDS! What's everyone's costume for tonight? Anyone wearing anything... Patriotic? 🙃
Philip DeFranco holy shit I'm first
Just wearing a emoji mask and scaring kids
Lc Verse why?
I'm a Chipotle employee for Halloween making that money
I’m trump
how could a member of my own species do that to not just other people, but children, and *their own* children.... I honestly can't process that level of cruelty. what could possibly lead someone to that?
Cinnamon It could have easily been you, or anyone else doing that under the right circumstances that lead up to it. We are all human and capable of terrible atrocities.
Cinnamon take this in.... even worse things happen. Shit is reaaaal fked up
CChissel uhhh. I would say that about a lot of things but this.... unless the "parents" were tortured or mindfked. This most likely won't happen in any situation.
Cinnamon I totally agree
Of all creatures of the know world, Humans are the scariest and have the most capacity to be Cruel. Although, its obvious they either have mental health issues or they were abused as children and couldnt break the cycle.
"What a frightening thing is the human, a mass of gauges and dials and registers, and we can only read a few and those perhaps not accurately"
-John Steinbeck
Those people are not parents. They're monsters.
Exactly!!
Not even monsters we need a new word for them how about.
HOPETHESEPEEPSBURNISHELL
Kill them fuck all that noise
I'd still like to hear more about legal investigation results rather than CPS case worker interview results. Kids can easily be induced to make up some horrific things that might not have actually happened. Yes, trust that something bad has happened there, and investigate, but don't start condemning the parents until a jury has seen the evidence and decided. ua-cam.com/video/vVh22znRd2Q/v-deo.html
Nothing screams "God-Dammit I Love America!" quite like a Fanny-pack.
Wolveskrieg Feuersturm i owe one 😂
How can people hurt kids? Hearing that shit is truly rage inducing. The thought of accidentally hurting my niece makes me shudder.
It's awful when people harm children. I can understand if you don't want to be a parent but you never harm a child.
Same
deafpool how can you hear anything?
I personally know the girl chey but do not know the husband I never expected the girl to do such insane shit
deafpool atm the parents of a boy who was tortured for 8 months before dying in 2013 are tried. Its a horrific and tragic story
The story about the children broke my heart. It’s bad enough the “parents” are monsters, but it’s so saddening that the parents have made them think what is happening to them is normal. I hope CPS doesn’t fail the children and they get proper medical and psychiatric help.
Nerdy Mina I can't even imagine doing such a thing to anyone no matter how much hate I may have for someone no one deserves that except for those 2 "parents"
Hey! You've inspired me to make a song about cabbage! I've uploaded it to my channel & I'd love to hear what you think :)
Honestly, this is just one case of abuse. Now, imagine how many more out there. How much worse the kids could be going through as we speak and breathe. Imagine if the kids were never saved and grow up not getting any help. Ladies and gents, next psycho & murderers in the making. The world is fcked. Wish we could plant something on every future parents, so we could monitor them.
Harry Hill WHat the hell stop
Same! I really don't know what goes through someone's head to think treating someone like this is anything but cruel. These two are definitely sick in the head
Dude!! Thanks for the shoutout! I was not expecting that! I hope you guys like my Stranger Things / Ariana Grande Mashup!
Kaskobi hi I am big fan shout me out pls and face reveal kaskobi we can collab one day thanks
Noah Holmes Would you also like there soul while you are at it.. Smh
You deserve the shutouts! Can I use your music in my vlog? I'll credit you in video and description!
it's deserved, I found it before Phil shouted it out and I've been obsessed with it
How hard is it to push buttons??... You've clearly not split this up into samples, its just you pushing lights with someones' mashup dubbed over. I guess anyone can get views these days.
Tomi's costume? Patriotic? Violating flag code? How about no one cares.
Max Lee Ikr, it's just an excuse to project their own frustrations at each other.
Kinda looks like people do.
Exactly, but the same people who burn flags suddenly want to bring the flag code up on her.
I was surprised that Phil fed the troll
Why do the stupid suddenly become well versed in law when it suits them?
But when THEY do something wrong, the law doesn't apply.
none of the screaming people on either side seem to really care about the flag or the flag code. The flag is just another divisive political tool at this point. Any so called "disrespect" to the flag is less gross to me at this point than those who are using it as a political hammer. In a word, hypocrisy.
eric foster exactly. This all comes back to people deflecting from the NFL protests by screaming about respect and patriotism
Well Said
This. It's just another tool that nobody really cares about the moment it isn't a weapon for them to attack people they don't like with.
Most people don't remember, but Tomi Lahren's first viral video was her rant on Colin Kaepernick's protest. She literally made her entire career off of weaponizing the flag and "patriotism" to attack the first amendment rights of a citizen engaging in peaceful protest.
maybe we are weaponizing the flag but so do other people when weaponizing their own ideals. when speaking their opinions, or talking about how they are above people because of religion or wealth. Everyone chooses to try to shut others up for little reason else but getting offended over the ideals of another. like with Muslims and Christians. I'm basically considered racist here for believing in GOD than their ALLA. I cant understand that. I'm considered sexist for hating a woman I cant stomach being around. not all women just a few I have had problems with personally. We as a nation of blockheads love to weaponize ideals for our own gain. funny thing is some serial murders actually think the same and we criticize them. isnt that hypocritical but many people now believe ISIS is in the right because religion and how they came to be.
The flag is irrelevant in the grand scheme of thing's. There are far bigger problems in the world than our flag being dropped on the ground or used as clothing
terminal beach agreed
But Phil knows who his followers are.
The thing about the flag codes is that they mean a literal flag. Boxers made to looks like the flag are still boxers and not "the flag". A coffee mug with the flag on it is a mug, and not a flag
Jorhin65 the US flag code 3 disagrees with you. " or otherwise placed a representation of any such flag, standard, colors, or ensign, to advertise, call attention to, decorate, mark, or distinguish the article or substance on which so placed shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor" wave goodbye to your narrative
M. de k. Blame all the snowflakes complaining about Kneeling during the national anthem and shit. Those people are the only ones making it a flag or military issue
K O that means you can't advertise your bakery on a flag and hang it up
M. de k. I don't care. I'm just pointing out that legal documents use specific words for a reason
Hey! You've inspired me to make a song about cabbage! I've uploaded it to my channel & I'd love to hear what you think :)
The only thing that annoys me about Tomi's outfit is that the wings don't have a symmetrical pattern.

I'm ashamed to be watching such an uninformed show, How dare you not do your research Phil. Trump would have no trouble accessing and removing his hand from a pringle jar with his Tiny... Tiny hands Phil.
(Only Love)
Lol
Awesome.
So that's why he's still a virgin!
You legit made me smirk, then laugh. Well done, you delicious drink, well done!
Whiskey Pringles are not made of real potatoes 🥔
no one is freaking out, no one is freaking, NOO ONE IS FREAAAKING OUT
Boston Prince umm...
Ain't that ironic.
The bait makes people freak out more than the actual story.
No one is freaking
No one is freak
No is freak
No freak

F (EFF)
This is my input.
That clickbait tho
Is having an entire code for a flag really necessary? As long as you aren't setting it on fire or pissing on it, there shouldn't be an issue regarding respect
The Ace Of Spades Actually while there are a couple steps disposing of a flag does involve burning it.
Except setting it on fire is technically the proper means of disposal according to said code. Yes, I am aware that it specifically mentions a ceremony in which the stars, field of blue, and stripes are individually burned, but burning the entire thing seems more in line with flag code than throwing it away which is what I'm assuming most Americans do with flags they no longer want/need.
The Ace Of Spades All rules on the use of flags are completely unnecessary, making something officially “disrespectful” doesn’t mean anything, because there are no consequences anyway
I thought conservatives didn't like SJWs? Anyone who has a problem with her costume is acting like a huge one. I love seeing a beautiful woman in an American flag bikini. I see no problem with people wearing USA flag bandanas or anything else. She is not disrespecting the flag she is honouring it. Those people can GFTO. If the right wants to start policing what people wear again then I will go straight back to the comfy centre.
If there one thing I learned about making rental rules, You write everything you think might happen to it but don't enforce till people take things too far. Or if your an arse you ding them on a thing not related only because of the thing you don't like them doing but forget to write down beforehand. "Law"
Thanks for refreshing my familiarity with the U.S. Flag Code. Who knows what pandemonium would have ensued in my life without this.
J Hitchcock As a Canadian, I'm also extremely relieved to know this. To think I could've accidently burned a flag on my next vacation!
Or come into the country wearing a repurposed American flag...My goodness...The Horror! haha
Thank you for not naming the douchbag of the day's occupation. I have recently joined that same organization and am thankful you didn't name it for those listening on podcast. It sickens me that I will very soon be working alongside people like this and most likely never know who they truly are. I hope those kids get the loving home they deserve, and the parents likewise get what they deserve.
I think Kevin Spacey wasn't acting as Frank Underwood in House of Cards, I think Frank Underwood is just acting like Kevin Spacey.
Love your vids Bandit!
straight up
BanditRants nope
Justin B Kind of like Terry Crews only plays himself. A hyperactive ADHD posterchild.
I’m interested in seeing the punishment the child abusers will face and what will happen the poor children. I hope they get help for any possible mental scarring because if it were me I would atleast have serious trust issues to a possibly debilitating point. The way those kids were manipulated is horrendous and I know in the past people guilty of things like this have certainly been let off too easily
Hey! You've inspired me to make a song about cabbage! I've uploaded it to my channel & I'd love to hear what you think :)
I hope they put those two in jail for many many years!
Harry Hill Dude. What the actual fuck?
Most kinds who end up taken by the government don't end up much better. A lot end up poor, homeless, or criminals. The system is terrible.
x Tuma Yeh it’s not a very good system...
Philled in deep
so deep it made a baby
Wouldn't it be one L instead of two.
It just keeps Philling...
Hey! You've inspired me to make a song about cabbage! I've uploaded it to my channel & I'd love to hear what you think :)
Suddenly people care about the "flag code."
furyofbongos more like "liberals"
furyofbongos yet no word on underwear, shorts or swimsuits baring the flag.
Idk about you but me, my family, and my friends have always cared about the flag code. Cause a rare oddity these days, we care about our country
No we are pointing out the snowflakes like Tomi were up in arms over Kaepernick and yet here they are disrespecting the flag. You missed the point but I'm not surprised.
It's interesting how Libs will use the flag code as an argument and then stomp, spit on, and burn an actual flag in "protest".
Before I became a mother 4 months ago I would see those stories of abuse and of course they were absolutely horrid but I could get through them now I cant even read or listing to news stories about things like that I physical cannot I just look at my son in disbelief of how any parent could do that to their childreen.I hope the children find a good home and hope that don't get split up and the parents who should even be called parents shouldn't even be allowed to breath air anymore.
Welcome to Parenthood! Stories about mistreated children never sat right with me but after my son was born, these stories became almost unbearable. Just goes to show you're not missing the protective and caring instincts a parent should have, unlike these sick rats.
I have known chey since I was like 7 years old I never thought she would do anything like that but im glad she wont be around those kids anymore im sure the army will be a lot more cruel on both of them than a normal court
The parents should have everything they they did to their kids, done to them. They're absolutely disgusting, and I hope those kids turn out alright. Bless them.
You're assuming that Keith actually believes that it's unpatriotic to violate the flag code. I took his statement to be calling out Tomi for hypocrisy in calling it unpatriotic when others do it, but then doing it herself.
Bramble451 it's unpatriotic to worship a flag code like it's the actual word of God.
I get it but Keith's statement holds absolutely no weight considering that Tomi's US flag inspired outfit wasn't an actual flag (so the flag code doesn't pertain to her actions) yet you can clearly see Keith violating the crap out of a legitimate US flag.
Bramble451 Exactly
CRAZYGUNDAMOTAKU, dude, gtfo out of here with "offical" or "actual" flag or not. Its about the spirit of it, and you know it.
No matter how you view her costume, we all agree Tomi is screaming for attention.
She happens to be really good at it.
she deserves it
Brokenwingedheart The saddest people usually do.

Saying that someone is virtue signaling isnt a form of virtue signaling in itself?
The entire House of Cards show shouldn't be cancelled because of one person. Sure, that one person was the lead actor but the previous season already set up Robin Wright to be the new lead. Just say Spacey's actor died or something and keep the show going.
CrimpyGummybear kill him off for unproven accusations?
Problem is that the show will most likely sink in ratings, majority of the people watch the show for Spacey and the lesser for other characters, Spacey was the bread and butter of the show, without him like i said the show will be less interesting
Eh the last season was pretty awful tbh. The show ran its course.
Making the show about Claire will suck, just cancel it already
CrimpyGummybear it probably won't be cancelled since this is its last season
How can people treat little humans that way. Even when i had postpartum depression with my first i never thought to do stuff like that.
Thank you for covering the issue in Spain. I'm Catalan, and will for ever be Spanish and defend my country's unity. Catalonian region lost 35% of its GDP in 10 days due to having around 1,500 companies leaving the region due to political instability cause by the secessionists (amongst them, one of Spain's largest banks). This secessionist craziness is only bringing us chaos and dividing our society. The Catalan Government had to rule in coalition PRECISELY because pro-independence parties did NOT have a majority. Regardless, the phrase about how you can win with half the people's votes but cannot govern with half against you, is particularly true in our region. We will NEVER support a republic outside of Spain and the European Union. This is damaging our region and people to an large extent and having the ex Catalan president Puigdemont fleeing to another country right after declaring independency is a clear sign of how this will never work.
Mrs Fs I wish you the best, but I wanted to share an interesting comment I found elsewhere on the internet.

Excerpt: " At no time were the majority of residents of the Thirteen Colonies in favour of independence. One could divide the colonists into one-third Loyalist, one-third “Patriot”, and one-third indifferent “fence-sitter”."

"Ha! I was merely pretending to be retarded!" - Keith Olbermann
Nani?!
everyone's been playing checkers but he's playing chess for years
He's been plotting this for decades.

"Joke's on them!"
I know this is becoming a more popular opinion, but I hate the insult "snowflake"... it has just the grossest level of smugness and condescension.
Careful youre melting
Hey! You've inspired me to make a song about cabbage! I've uploaded it to my channel & I'd love to hear what you think :)
Disgusting child abuse, and everyone in the comments is talking about the flag?
My take on Phil's business model:
Headline juicy sensational "news" and eventually get into actual important news -- thus luring people in who would otherwise not be interested in important news.
Hey, I support whatever gets a larger percentage of the population informed...it's badly needed lol.
And your point is?
Epoplo martian It is just a statement about why some say he is clickbait, but this bait is actually a useful tool for him to get news across to the uneducated.
wow you cracked it. you must be wicked smaht
"freaking out"...he loves that one to get clicks..
Her costume looks less like a Halloween costume and more like something that one super annoying guy decides to wear on a 4th of July party.
the stereotype that step-parents are evil will NEVER disappear.. esp with stories like these
Being a relatively new step-parent to two kids, I hope this isn't true.
I mean, I've only been told once "I hate you" for making them get off their video game and clean up their room. Pretty good so far, right?
Molly Monoxide sorry! with all due respect to those like you who don't fit into the category. Was just a bit biased, since I have a step-dad of my own whom I don't really get along with..
I agree that "parent" is different than who's DNA you came from. And it's crazy how same se x couples, who desire to be good parents for an unwanted child, still have trouble adopting children in many states due to them being "unfit"; but monsters like those Phil spoke about have all the right to be parents without any restriction.
Hey! You've inspired me to make a song about cabbage! I've uploaded it to my channel & I'd love to hear what you think :)
Well to be fair if you have seen the transgendered parents of "transgendered" 5 month olds you wouldnt say that.
To be fair, transgender doesn't mean interested in the same sex, and she said same sex couples. Beyond that, some people being bad doesn't mean all are. Regardless of sexual orientation, you should be able to adopt/have a baby as long as you are a good parent--aka not an abusive one. If you are abusive, you don't deserve to be a parent.
Dream Twist Source.
That's because they can make their own.
Is this title click bait, cause no one I know is freaking out about tomi
Jason Harbolt No one YOU know......but people YOU DON'T know are the ones Phil is covering here. News usually goes beyond the circle of people you know.
Yunis Blu3 , we are talking about Tomi here, it's like reporting, "Hey, this just in, water is wet!"
Jason Harbolt, yea that does not mean everyone knows who she is or even cares. No one I know is freaking out about it either but thats because they know nothing about who she is so.......
Jason Harbolt It was a slow day untill New York....
That was a total nonstory and just was included for the clicks her name brings. Bad form
If you are surprised by the fact that Tomi Lahren holds a logically inconsistent position you haven't been paying attention.
+benswhitnell
Out of curiosity what logical inconsistencies does she display?
What's the inconsistent position that she holds?
Wearing articles of clothing which have an American flag on them is NOT against US flag code. Wearing the actual flag as clothing is against flag code.
+Wolves bandwagon fan since 1998
Context is important. Everything is a label. Your name is a label. However the way liberals use the word "label" is different from how other people use the word label. In that context she's saying she doesn't agree with just lumping everyone into groups based on arbitrary things. I.E. ALL blacks, asians, indians, hispanics, arabs are all lumped into "people of color".
Stating she's a millenial isn't a label, it's an objective statement. You're either a millenial or you're not, that isn't a "label", it's a fact.
So that isn't an example of inconsistency. It's an example of you not knowing the difference between objective statements and labels.
War450 Being a hyper conservative and anti-feminist who and then saying abortions should be legal. Now, they should be and they are, but saying that while ranting about "snowflakes" who want equal rights and how stupid they are is hypocrisy at it's finest.
I don't think she has any actual beliefs, she simply says she agrees with whatever belief will get her more attention.
She hasn't been in the news for a while so she wore an American flag and made a nonsense statement that she knew would get her attention. If anyone is a "snowflake" it's her. She wants attention for being different from other hot blonde chicks.
+Maggie Karabel
I don't know much about Tomi but I have never heard of her ranting about people who want equal rights. It's just the left the modern western society simply never advocate for equality. They advocate for supremacy, for segregation, for hand-outs, for oppression, for degeneration, and regression. Never equality.
So she may very well be a snowflake just looking for attention. But that doesn't automatically make her arguments invalid or wrong. Who makes an argument is irrelevant to what the argument is. Even the most vile and evil people in history, like Stalin, can be right about things.
So what Tomi is simply doesn't matter. What she says and does matters.
I'm offended that she is offended that he is offended that... Well this could go on forever.
Oh Tomi stop trying to remain relevant
Zom she isnt. People like phllipdeliberal keep trying to make her relevant.
how is she relevant or not relevant. she just does her job. sexy news that isn't moronic victim playing shit
Every time I see a new Philly D video I think "Oh look... stuff I don't want to hear or know..." Then I click on the video anyway 😂
Kor O'Connell either useless twitter drama or Jake Paul story. Thats what Phil D show has become
John Daly he does not make a lot of jake Paul vids. Don't b ridiculous.
That Girl Wearing Glasses u may want to check his 2017 videos.
Often those thoughts cross my mind, there is an appeal but I'm not 100% sure what it is yet. Johns right he doesn't cover them a lot, but he does cover youtube drama regularly and that's when I question why I come back.
Frankly I just liked to be "filled in" by Phil.
Philip DeFranco please talk about the Plague epidemic in madigascar thousands are sick hundreds are dieing and nobody is covering it, also there's a very real danger of drug resistant Plague causing another Black Death pandemic due to man made climate change increasing global temperatures, rainfall, and humidity combined with a higher probability of famine all of which were major contributing factors to the black death in Europe. This story needs attention and isn't getting it.
the plague in Madigascar isn't being cause be climate change, it's being caused by people digging up corpuses and parading them around the streets
Your right about that but climate change can and will make this a bigger problem.
Try his twitter.
Carter The Pit Bull Plus places like Poland where people washed regularly weren't affected
ILOVEPIE I doubt it.
Belts and switches... I got that growing up so thats normal to me. But with thorns??? That sounds more like torture. I cant even go into the rest of what those so called parents did. Really dont have the words for it.
I am having a fantastic Tuesday, thank you
Hope you're having a great day too.
Michael McNally good for you!
Michael McNally I'm not.
Hope it gets better
titties
Speaking of _Stranger Things,_ why are the seasons so freaking short?!
😡😡
Stop talking about Tomi.. she's just trying to be cool..
B-Rai87 she's such a tryhard tool smh.
Obviously she's an ignorant, lazy opportunist who gave up on her education the minute she realized she could use her physical appearance to get by, so she found an audience she can pander to by being eye candy and saying what they want to hear. She doesn't have a clue what she's saying; she's pretty much just a talking blow-up doll who's too uncoordinated to be a stripper.
You're comment is kinda sexist.
Wow, are you Leonardo da Vinci, because that's the most accurate painting pertaining to female I've ever seen.
Damn that was sexist...
Kneel before a flag in peaceful protest and Conservative America boycotts a whole sport because of the "disrespect". Wear it as a piece of clothing, directly conflicting with legit flag codes, and suddenly there are technicalities that suggest that's not as offensive. Hypocrites.
The flag code is for actual flags, Tomi wasn't wearing a real flag so she is not breaking any flag codes
Marco Bocanegra but as Phil said, the claim that it only applies for actual flags comes from an unofficial source.
Gib-Gab well from only using the u.s. flag code, the rules were made for the use/display/wear of an actual flag, she was only wearing a print of the flags design not an actual one
Clothes =/= Flags
dhsilv2 an actual flag is flying in the air. Like Keith had on.
last time I was this early, my girlfriend wasn't ready
Mau Morales BOI you better pull out then
Your hand doesn't count as a gf.
Hey! You've inspired me to make a song about cabbage! I've uploaded it to my channel & I'd love to hear what you think :)
How was the pull-out?
The Awesome part of the show always saves me from the overwhelming drama.
The most incredible thing about the first story is the significance people give a piece of cloth. You can respect what it stands for without having a 'flag code'😂. Just seems ridiculous from an outsider's perspective, not patriotic...
i agree, im the same with my countries flag and anthem, im extremely appreciative of how lucky i am of the fact i was born here and have the opportunities i do as a result, however my flag is just a piece of cloth with some colours on it, nothing really special about it, and my anthem (God save the Queen) is the most boring piece of shit ever orchestrated, i don't believe in god and i don't really care for the royals, yet im still patriotic for my country and the people in it.
Philip Martin cause to people it's a symbolism. A very big symbolism. Of course you will never understand that.
I'd be much more annoyed by people shitting on my country's culture than our flag. I mean with very little alteration it could be the flag of several other countries (it's the Irish flag in case you were wondering)
Dave Tyler Exactly. A symbol for an *idea* that has meaning. The cloth itself only exists to remind you of an *idea* that we collectively value as a nation. The cloth itself is meaningless. If you're too absorbed in the material aspect of the symbol, then you lose sight of the idea for which it stands... Not very patriotic if you ask me.
Matthew Lee, you can respect a countries values and what it stands for without having to respect a flag.. as i do
I love how most of your videos start with “why people are freaking out about (insert subject)” as if people are just kind of creating problems out of BS
That happened to me as a kid. I told a dhs (a form of CPS where I was raised) rep about home abuse when I was about 7. I didn’t know that what was going on at home was wrong. I got home and he dhs Rep told my mom everything I said. I got yelled at and accused of wanting to destroy the family. My mom and that rep made me so scared to talk about what was going on that I didn’t tell anyone about it until I was 19.
Have you thought about the fact that a piece of cloth has so much irrational significance to people? It's almost similar to religious beliefs. Even the patriotic indoctrination is similar to how religion is forced into children...
Prastt as far as I know this whole worshipping a flag thing is entirely American! We definitely don't do it here in Ireland. In fairness though if you reverse our flag it's the flag of another country and if you turn it sideways it's practically the Indian flag!
It's the religion of American. From the early indoctrination of the youth through the use of the pledge of allegiance, to the holding up of the founding fathers as infallible prophets. You took what religion has been doing since the dawn of time and applied it on a national level. Incredibly annoying for the rest of the world, but very impressive.
That couple makes me so angry I could scream. I completely agree that they do not deserve to have children. They also don't deserve to be anywhere except prison. The fact that they had their 5 year old so brainwashed that she was willing to lie for them....ahh I'm just so angry!
before put in care at 8 yrs old i had parents just like this, glad these kids got out of that life.. i hope they have the help they need to make sure their ptsd is not a struggle... and they learn what real parent is
how can two crazy people find eachother. while im here hoping the girl im talking to likes the same music
Live in MN and loved how the video brought in the brewing here, the beer scene > the wild rice, hotdish, and jucy lucy scene combined.
Pray for the Manhattan victims.
soccernicholas6 shhhh liberals don't care
Dave Tyler I am a liberal. Don't make blanket statements.
praying won't acomplish anything.
Tomi Lahren will always be controversial. She's one of those extremists that thrives on being so divisive that no one can truly side with her
She is very divisive but she is not An extremist she is just a very divisive conservative
Hey! You've inspired me to make a song about cabbage! I've uploaded it to my channel & I'd love to hear what you think :)
So is Captain America's outfit against the US code? What about Uncle Sam, Major Glory, Batman, Iron Patriot, etc, etc?
Literally none of them wear the actual flag. Wearing similar colors is not the flag. Also, Cap is MUCH more similar to the Puerto Rican flag than anything else.
roberto gurrola Captain America's uniform is meant to embody the stars of the US flag but it isn't literally the flag.
They're all fictional charachters.
uncle sam literally represents america lmao obviously he wears red white and blue with stars. hes also fictional so???
roberto gurrola Aren't all those people fictional though?? Also most of them really don't have the actual flag
I grew up on the Wisconsin - Minnesota border. Having wild rice soup has always been a tradition here. Thanks for helping to showcase another reason why I love the North.
Seems like a fairly 2010s attitude:
"This cause is so very, very important! It's in the news and everything! Oh wait, a month has passed, and I've forgotten everything about it. Carry on."
When did political movements become trends? And can we go back?
The thing people need to keep in mind with the ongoing issues of Spain is that this is what civil unrest that can lead to civil war looks like. To those that say "they should just let them leave" I flip that question on you "should the union have let the south leave?". As for independence both Spain and Catalonia will suffer if they separate. Their country just got out of the "Great Recession in Spain" a few years ago and separating will cause even more damage to both.
I don't see anything wrong with Spain defending their constitution with force, we did the same in the USA. Its the same issue that happened with the Vietnam war where TV helped sway public opinion against the war since it was the 1st time the American people could see what war really looked like. People forget how brutal and destructive the civil war was, and that's without mentioning the unconstitutional things that happened during the civil war. But most people forget about the civil war because nowadays people don't want to read up on history and learn about what happened in the past.
I personally think it would be better if both of them find a middle ground, but that hasn't really worked in the past.
The Civil War didn't start until the Confederates attacked a Union fort. If you show me where the Union attacked people in the streets for protesting and voting for secession, you'll show me something the Union shouldn't have been doing (I wouldn't be surprised if there are examples. Protests are often met with violence in every country, even today. It's still wrong). Let them vote. Let them protest. Then tell them no. I agree with taking away their self-rule when the leadership is making moves at violating the law. I don't agree with use of force against non-violent citizens.
Tbh we should have just let the confederacy leave. The former confederate states are the poorest and least educated in the union and we would be better off without them
Would it really have been so bad if we let the South leave?
CrazyRed98 it's ok if you don't see anything wrong, it just means you hate freedom and love the fascism of capital democracy. Which this is since you should believe that a true democracy wouldn't include in their Constitution obstruction of states to cecede from the union. Spain is the kids parents in the story today and Catalonia is the kids, you're saying you think it's fine to beat the child as they did and they shouldn't be allowed to be taken away from the father and stepmother. That's what you see FYI
+CrazyRed98
What's Catalonia doing that's nearly as bad slavery? I suppose one approach would have been to just go "our name is Benet and we ain't in it do whatever you like to those black people" and maybe it would have saved a lot of blood shed but I still don't think it would have been the moral approach the real question should be is the conflict is the war worth it? Writing in a dictator clause into your constitution though is pure genius why didn't our founding fathers think of that?
Wow. These "people" need to stop breathing our air.
People need to understand that USA is a free country but not that free though.
Wise words
No one is going to be completely free doofus, in any country you go to the face of the earth. England, France, Sweden, the United States, Switzerland, China, India, Russia and definitely Saudi Arabia are not completely free. Go down the list. And that isn't a bad thing, I mean, do you think people want to live in a place where everyone is free to roll up and hit people without the help of the government to prosecute and protect? As for the freedoms we enjoy, do you have the right to life, liberty (in a legal equality sense), and the pursuit of happiness? More or less. We have rights that count for everyone, like freedom of speech, freedom of religion, the right to due process, the right to assembly, vote, etc to even change the rulers. In fact, the idea of us being closer to slavery or tyranny as a lot of people like to say - is downright silly and shortsighted.
Fish4Man61 I understand what you're saying and I agree to that. The problem is that most of Americans put it like their country was the only free country in the world and any other isn't. And when you stumble with things like these there's going to be a problem because you got to follow the law but in your head you're "free" to do whatever you want.
I am an American, and I call myself the home of the free, land of the brave because what it stands for and idealism. And that is what most people would refer to. But I can't think of any American that believed there was no other free nations on earth... That seems like a strawman.
Fish4Man61 as a fellow proud American I find the land of the free home of the brave beneficial and true..until you do something uncle Sam don't like 🤕🤑
I'm not American (never even been to the US), but don't American Disneylands/worlds actually use fake US flags (less stars, or something) so that they don't have to take care of them the same way.
So is it like a legal thing, just flag etiquette or does it all depend on the state?
Cillian Brouder source?
Cillian Brouder It's just flag etiquette. Some states have tried to pass laws regarding use of the flag, but all laws are superseded by the Constitution, so it wouldn't matter much.
J T I forget the original source (I think it was a Cracked article), but here's one of many front page sources that covers the topic if you Google it:

Michael Herd okay, thanks for the clarification
I feel it's just to avoid possible backlash.
Yo Philip, make a breaking news video of what’s going on in NYC right now. Thank you
Hey! You've inspired me to make a song about cabbage! I've uploaded it to my channel & I'd love to hear what you think :)
I live in Barcelona. A lot of my Catalan friends say they want independence because they are oppressed by Spain but feel fatigued by everything that is happening and doubt they will ever get it. Even after all this.
Philip delivers the best news on the internet, this guy deserves to be massive on UA-cam... oh wait! 😀

I don't even know who Keith Olbermann is but let me explain what he was doing -> Tomi Lahren uses her strict 'patriotism' as an excuse to be as offensive and topically relevant. Olbermann is showing the obvious flaw in her logic by pointing out that she is disrespecting the American flag according to her own ideologies. That doesn't mean he has to adhere to those ideologies himself. It's like a vegan saying they don't eat animal products because it's cruel and bad for the environment, and then they go and eat products that use unsustainable palm oil (which destroys habitats of orangutans and is bringing them closer to the threat of extinction, thus both killing orangutans and causing mass de-forestation). A meat-eater could point out the flaw in that ideology because the vegan is claiming to be against something they're actually contributing to. That doesn't make the meat eater a hypocrite.
Anyone who thinks keith olbermann is credible needs to be lobotomize
Love how you seem to abruptly end the show. No dragging it out and keeps the viewer engaged. Also, love how I can disagree with you on some things, but respect you and the show so much I keep on watching & really use you & a couple other sources for news. Thanks for doing you!
Not gonna lie, I liked her outfit, I mean people can burn flags and turn away from the flag so anyone can show more spirit if you would want. I do not get why wearing the flag is an illegal or wearing it horizontal but burning it is okay. I think both should be fine.
It's hilarious because that father looks like Takaoka from Assassination Classroom.
AKA The abusive teacher.
In The Mind of Kibara i'm not sure the word 'hilarious' means what you think it means.
I'm going to be pissed if we don't get season 6 of House of Cards after that cliff hanger
On the flag code story I would just like to add that my grandmother has been a member of the American Legion for most of her life ( just this year she became the president of her division) and I’ve worked with her for a long time, ever since I was a child, and we’ve had calls from over 100 people just this year asking about clothing with a flag and her answer has been always been yes. It is clear that people care about the flag and want to respect it and the fact that people take the time out of their day to call just goes to show how much authority the American Legion has on this subject. I feel that since the flag code is more or less a guide and not strictly enforced that the American Legion is can be sighted as to how to wear the flag.
To me the first story is basically a non story simply because I truely don't understand patriotism around a flag, it's just a piece of fabric, why does it make international news?
Do you understand hate against a flag? Because people burning flags makes international news also. If you can understand hate, just flip it around to understand love.
Hey! You've inspired me to make a song about cabbage! I've uploaded it to my channel & I'd love to hear what you think :)
To me a flag doesn't really mean anything, I wouldn't care if someone burnt the Dutch flag. To be fair tho, we are basically the opposite of America when it comes to national pride.
I guarantee that all of that USA merch Tomi was covering her bits with was made in China. Irony, it's a thing.
Thats capitalism,surely the most American way to be
exploitation as well, MURICA
Shot coffee out of my nose, it burns...
Irony is a thing. That’s not irony.
My wife and I are foster parents in Texas, CPS will send parents like that to parenting classes to reduce the risk to under 50% and then send the kids back.
THE PRINGLES JOKE GOT ME FUCKED UP 😂😂😂😂😂

I just want to point out that while my husband was watching Netflix in the next room I commented, "Hrm," while listening to the commentary about Tomi Lahren.
He paused his show asking, "What?"
I responded, "You'll see it later, it's Phil DeFranco!"
His response was to say, "Oh, okay," he then continued with his show.
We contribute to Phil's patreon because we both watch him daily which is more time than we spend on anything on cable. Thank you, Phil and crew for your years of discussion.
Pray for New York :(
Don't worry we gud
Oh Tomi how edgy of you
It is infuriating that people who are not fit to be parents and many unwilling, can just accidentally have kids. While there are amazing people, who would make great parents, are unable to conceive for one reason or another. Want kids so bad they will pay tens of thousands to try medical intervention, with no guarantees. We finally have our two kids after eight years of trying, and loads of medical tests. Maybe it is this experience that makes it even more frustrating me. How can anyone not overwhelmingly and unconditionally love their children, and treat them accordingly?
Phil why don't your ever cover controversy of the left politicians and commentators anymore. You blew off the Debbie Wassermann Shultz scandal a couple of months ago and you haven't mentioned the recent Hillary Clinton Dossier controversy
That's a sweet Kid Rock cosplay.
Hey! You've inspired me to make a song about cabbage! I've uploaded it to my channel & I'd love to hear what you think :)
Spain is a perfect example of what happens when you actually put a stop to protests when they start. The GEO beat on protestors for a few hours and everyone changed their tone. Other countries could learn from that.
Sam Gardner yea fascism is great, hey you don't like Cheerios you like rice Krispies? Cmere so I can beat you face in with a wrench 😏
I'm pretty liberal and I don't find her offensive at all , that's the point of the liberals , saying you are aloud to have free speech and expression. I don't get what she was trying g to do there ?!
Katie Leitwein and just like every large group in all of existence, there's the degenerates that ruin everything
What even are you trying so say? All your post is jumbled up mess.
She's just trying to get attention
There are more groups than that, Manannan.
As a liberal thinker. She was not offensive. Just a hypocrite.
Those 'parents' need to be put in general population, with all the other prisoners knowing exactly what they're charged with and why - not just the charge.
Douchebag of the Day --》 Honestly can people who definitely shouldn't have kids stop being allowed to have kids. I'm just frustrated about every story of child abuse I hear, because taking away someone right to have children all together isn't how to respond, but gah just even though I myself never ever want kids of my own I really just want to protect all children who suffer abuse from their abusive parent.
I've been thinking about this for a while now. Why do we make drivers pass several tests to make sure that they know what they are doing before giving the legal right to drive, yet parents never have any tests to pass? For many occupations out there, we try to prevent accidents but we only do the same with parents when they want to adopt a child and still the US child adoption system is extremely broken because kids are essential treated like products from Amazon. The damage that a bad parent can do to a young human mind is never fully reversible. It's preventing the harm is better than letting monsters abuse their child for years.
I think people should have to pass several aptitude tests before having kids. These tests could allow them to be aware of their own potential destructive or negative behaviors, it could make them question where it comes from and they should be encouraged to change and helped by a psychologist.
I wish we lived in a society that encourages people to be more introspective instead of encouraging us to judge in others, the flaws we are too ashamed to acknowledge in ourselves. It could be a society where there are much more efforts dedicated to mental health issues, and everyone has a psychologist the way we have a physician today.
But unfortunately, this could only be efficient in a small population. We are more than 7 billions, that's way to much.
Because childbirth is a natural reaction to a very natural, primal, and evolutionary instinct. What you're suggesting is eugenics, which is something the Nazis, Margaret Sanger, etc wanted to institute in the early 20th century. Basing it on intelligence is one thing, but it NEVER stops there. You'd have people then arguing for testing for Down's, autism, moving into things like race, sexual orientation, etc. Not to bring out the slippery slope, but this is one where that WILL happen because it already has.
Telling someone you can't procreate is as unnatural as telling someone you can't breathe or eat or walk without being tested first.
And to go back to your driving analogy, driving isn't a necessity nor is it natural. Procreation isn't just natural, it's an evolutionary necessity.

Hi Phill long time fan. I wanted to mention that I live here in Spain with my wife, she is a journalist here and we wanted to say that if you would like some more info about the situation in Spain we would be more than happy to talk to you and clarify a few things you mentioned in your video. Keep up the great work!
Phil, please have whomever does your titles stop using the phrase "freaking out."
all the Catalans want is reduced taxes and it's a fair request. The Spanish government no wanting to have dialog with them is a bad look
its a progressive tax system imposed on all of Spain, that is the definition of fair, you don't see Valencia wanting to leave because they are really getting screwed. they are annoyed because of the perceived gap in Catalonias wealth generation and the spend on the region, it is by far not the worst gap in Spain but they must think pretty highly of themselves and love a good moan! it seems they threaten to cause civil war at every grievance and now it is bred into the ppl. if you are not begging for Independence u are labelled unpatriotic and receive abuse from everyone, the same with Scotland. I know ppl that put up Scottish independence stickers and flags on their homes but voted to remain in the UK all because they want to save face. and not get smashed windows.
I sincerely hope those two child abusers are put in prison for what they did and their kids are put in some sort of foster care. Just horrible people over all. I could just feel the rage boiling under my skin when you told their story. Sometimes I wonder if the death penalty should be removed, but then I see things like this and get a feeling we should expand it.
Aww yes, Phil me in daddy DeFranco!!
What about Olympic athletes who win events and are draped in the flag?
Turns out americans, including the right, doesn't view wearing flag-related stuff to be offensive. As per usual the left fabricates some bullshit to use as an argument because arguing based on facts will never work for them.
What do Kevin Spacey and Target have in common?
Boys pants half off
Boba Fett lmao
umm....
It just goes to show, way too often CPS causes harm to good families and doesn't take care of terrible families. I'm sure most of what they do is legitimate, but it seems like it's way to often that families are unjustly punished or inexplicably ignored by CPS.
regarding cataluña, why are u so one-sided? you should have watched the last demonstrations in cataluña where hundreds of thousands were out on the streets to support union with spain...
why don't you talk about the fact that some people in this so called referendum were allowed to vote 3 times each, why don't you speak about the violence the demonstrators in the day of elections perfomed agaisnt the police in order to get a violent response from them.
why don't you speak about the 207,000 students present in Cataluña and only 3000 participated in the protests. Why don't you speak about the fact that Cataluña has more independance than Scotland.
Most people didn't vote because it was an ilegal referendum, where the people overseeing this referendum were in favor of the referendum, it wasn't an independent identity, and also according to several statistics the majority of Cataluña residents don't support the independence and want to remain in Spain, and it is also expected that on the elections for 21st of December, the pro-independance parties will loose their majortiy in the parlament.
I really like your show, but please, in this news you are way off reality. And also i am very sorry about my english. Thank you, and hope you responde to this, i would like to know your opinion in all i just mentioned.
This, so much needed comment. I´m glad you took your time to write this. He never mentions all the bullshit catalonian people had to eat from independentists, how they ignored the legal route, how their dialogue claims are fake, as the condition is independence, the BULLYING non-independentists face, even children.
Dissappointed again, as most times he talks about this issue, sadly biased, it made me lose my faith in this show as a whole.
It's clear you have no idea what you are talking about. you should do some resurge your self. greetings from BARCELONA.
Yeh, he's so western media biased.....all of the EU supports Spain 100%, and Phil is calling that into question. When the entire world community agrees, why are we debating? Spain is in the right. No negotiations.
MC - CLAYMORE So you think that because your from the country you know better than others on the situation? That’s so blind-sighted.
Thank you! Philip is those type of westerners who are so for people who want to segregate from what seem as an oppressive government, not knowing the deadly cost of independence. This shit has been going on for centuries in my country, with the mon, rohinga, kayin, kachin wanting to form their own little country, not knowing that in doing so, they put not only myanmar in a weak spot, but themselves in such a weak spot. You think China is going to be their fucking buddy? I despise it when westerners get involved in affairs they know nothing about, instead of just reporting the news fairly.
I'd throw Tomi a bone.
Hell yeah...but then you would have to leave once she started looking at her Twitter feed
Woof?
Toni is just making money by taking advantage of what's hot right now (and for who knows how long).
