Philip DeFranco How to start a war: Taylor is fat and can't sing for shit lmaooo
Philip DeFranco love ya show. Thanks for giving us some no bs news and entertainment
I'm not a fan of Taylor at all but I feel like she's telling the truth. The picture is pretty straightforward and the fact that all that evidence was so conveniently lost just makes me believe her more. I don't see why she'd lie...
InternetHobo congrats! You're the 100th "im not a fan of taylor/ I dont like her BUT" poster! If u support something or someone just bloody say so, you dont need to start with a "but" it doesnt make you seem anymore objectionable.
Justin Roache I know what you're saying... but I'm going to discount all of it. =D
Justin Roache You know that it is possible to agree with someone even if you don't like them? Why do you think there are such expressions like 'dumbass had a point'?
I don't believe either side. Taylor's a bitch nowadays. Mueller doesn't seem to want to tell the truth. Remember Taylor bribes idiots to not fall under celebrity status.....that is why I don't choose sides but I wished she quit and just HAVE a fucking life
And why would she picked him specifically to lie about and not a million other guys? She wasn't the one suing him at the first place, nor counter suing him for 3 million dollars. She didn't sue for fame, nor money because she already has both. Seems to me this guy is full of it.
Reading through the comments, I'm seeing a lot of deplorable responses on the TSwift case with some people saying "she's doing this for attention", "she shouldn't have made it a legal battle" or "she should've called him out there and been done with it".
First of all, once a person has been assaulted, however they choose to react is completely up to them. Furthermore, an outcry/retaliation during an assault is extremely rare.
Secondly, how can Taylor have asked for this when it happened two years ago and HE sued HER first??
Thirdly, any amount of assault on anyone is a big deal and should be looked as such. So what if he "just grabbed her ass"? It's her body and he didn't have permission to touch it. Point blank period. People who think she's overreacting are the main reason why other people think it's no big deal to do and why sexual assault goes mostly unreported.
Patricia C. Preach.
you need to get over your celebrity worship.
She really ever felt anything during the shoot
or just doing everything by seeing a photo after 4 years
@@orul8384 she reported the incident to the radio and then he got fired. so he sued taylor.
@@orul8384 he was the one who brought the case to court after 2 years she counter sued
Dissapointed in people saying Taylor wasn't assualted because if she was, she would have called out or slapped his hand away. Actually it's far more common than not for a victim of sexual assault, especially when that assault takes place in public or within the view of others for the victim to freeze. Sometimes from fear, sometimes from shock and other times from just the social pressure not t cause a scene for fear of judgement. A commonly known example of this is the common occurrence in japan of sexual assault on overcrowded trains. In Japan it is seen as very rude to make noise or fuss on public transport which has inadvertently created a safe space for predators. Young girls are often groped and simply let it happen due to embarrassment, shame and outright fear of causing a scene and being judged for doing so. What you're expecting from sexual assault victims is an immediate response but this is a rare reaction, it's far more common for victims to submit to the situation in hopes to just get it over with. Similarly in rape victims they are often asked why didn't you fight more? Why didn't you scream? It's a completely unreasonable and insensitive line of questioning also because unless you are the victim of that specific situation you have no idea how you would truly react. i'm not an SJW by a long shot, i think it's ridiculous that an innocent man can be accused of sexual assault these days for merely saying "you look hot" to a woman, that women are accusing people of "online rape" in video games and classing looks as assault. However, this particular line of questioning is exactly what people are talking about when they say 'victim blaming' To have the courage to come forward and report the crime then to be told no it's not assault because you didn't scream loud enough/ fight hard enough/ react quick enough.
Kyo Jane TRIGGERED!
lol Am I triggered? Or did i give a pretty calm and descriptive response to the question Phil posed?
Kyo Jane I think the radio guy lucked out that Taylor swift didn't out him right there. Normally I would be inclined to believe that the photo was just him getting into frame but everything he said sounds fishy AF. She basically let him off easy just getting him fired.
Yeah agreed. I find especially stupid, the remark about how he put his hand round her and felt something like ribs. Unless Tay Tay has a ribcage below her waist and is some sort of Xmen mutant, he did not feel any ribs. He's dug his own grave with his ridiculous comments and my goodness all the tech he broke? Piss poor attempt at defending himself. I wonder how his girlfriend feels about the situation :/
Thankyou, i always try and be as unbiased as possible replying to Philly and if i must, then give my opinion afterwards Just like he does in his show. There's always that hope i'll make it on to the Friday show haha and i want to represent myself well if i'm ever picked.
Why would Taylor lie about that? This stuff happens to girls all the time, Taylor is just in a position where she doesn't need to take any more shit from anyone.
Hey Phil, thanks for making my dancing video the secret link of the day. I promise to dance even harder now.
Gus Johnson you're a legend.
oh hell yeah, it's my boy gus
You ruined the secret
John Doe Still need to watch the video though. Because words can't describe the fabulousness of it.
what the fuck lol
"I was jumping into the frame."
"It was another guy."
"I felt a rib cage."
"I was being mind controlled by a T-rex."
Yup, this guy's story totally checks out.
what does taylor gain from lying about this? i think it's pretty clear from the picture that he was out of line
GarlicPoncho considering it was a counter suit, she saves $3 million by lying and saying she was really sexually assaulted. Also, maybe she felt she could be the face for feminism since she is a victim. But I'm inclined to believe her considering the evidence. On the flipside, playing devil's advocate, what does he have to gain by grabbing her ass? Does he not have much more to lose, especially doing it for a picture with many people, including his girlfriend and Taylor's bodyguards? Maybe neither are lying. Maybe he accidentally, unknowingly touched his butt while lifting his arm. A girl slapped me when I was a kid because I accidentally grazed my hand on her breast. She really felt I did it on purpose when I didn't. But the fact that he tried to pass it off as someone else grabbed her butt make it look worse for him.
While I agree that from the way the fabric is falling (or in the area over where his hand disappears, not falling) he looks pretty guilty, making herself to be a strong, independent survivor of sexual assault who only counter-sues for $1 and will donate *if she wins* (as if she didn't already have the funds, presumably so that there's more reason to side with her- any judge deciding against her would be hated by millions of people, even if she were lying out of her ass) is exactly the kind of thing Taylor seems to live for.
Swift is known to use things from her life to garner sympathy and be relatable and to write songs. Sexual harassment is now a trending topic and coincidentally she now is part of #metoo. I dunno. When it comes to Taylor, I just do not trust anything is real anymore. It’s all stunts to get mo money. Everything just looks so staged.
@Anna K
This incident happened way before #metoo, idiot.
Anna K - nobody need read this, I know this is 6 months ago and my issue is mainly with your choice of one word but I need to say this to get it out of my system. For that reason please don't take this personally. Sexual assault isn't a trend, it cannot be appropriately labelled that way because it isn't increasing and any youtuber knows trending features mean nothing, while I know what you mean by the word trending, it's a positive thing that isn't necessarily automatically being exploited. People act like it's all a matter of jumping on the band wagon, even in regard to the very first public case, how could that be when prior to opening her mouth, speaking out was impossible and unheard of, who's bandwagon was she jumping on? This was all so long before it was even okay to say a coworker or stranger assaulted you let alone someone above you directorially or producing your work. Since she came forward, It is being widely spoken about and related issues are finally being advocated for by our celebrity representatives who traditionally ignore and cover up abuses on all levels, it has been a sad reality that has defined Hollywood since it's conception, people leave acting before their careers have even taken off when their choices are reduced to role based reward prostitution, rape or being black listed, all of these things happened before the me too movement as did this incident and Taylor's open disapproval, it is only just now beginning to be acceptable to speak on your experience and people still call you a liar. She was even braver to do it before their was precedent of belief and protection and punishment of the perpetrator set by high profile cases in the media.
Another point I'd like to make is that you can't base your interpretations of somebodies behaviour on how they behaved before they were sexually assaulted and expect it to apply afterwards. And you cannot determine somebodies honesty by behaviour they've exhibited in the past. It may affect how widely they are believed, but all kinds of people are raped and that includes women who've lied and sought attention in the past, it may mean that they aren't widely believed but having your body violated is not a deserved repercussion and the rapist does not deserve to forgo punishment because of it. There certainly may be cases you could point to where I might feel differently but I don't think a single thing Taylor swift has done in her entire public career could justify her not being believed, she may have made mistakes as we all do, she's just done so more publicly but for all intents and purpose she's probably nicer, smarter, kinder, more patient and harder working than our most trustworthy friends. Have you heard of her swearing at lighting technicians, pulling her dancers hair, throwing tantrums in green rooms, throwing TVs out of her hotel windows, going to rehab, ignoring fans, telling the paparazzi to duck off? She's very clever and patient and kind, she is naturally sweet but also is protective of how she is publicly received. In order to do the work she does, the work you need to put in prior to public recognition and then after to write albums, record them, perform them, to handle the public interest in personal relationships, to smile all the while knowing the photo the paparazzi just took of you on a date will accompany an article implying you are a heartbreaking slut who exploits men for lyric material, to be robbed of you right to write from your heart about the pain of a failed relationship only to have the man defended because they've worked out which heartbreak you are consoling yourself through your art, all while basically being a child, scraping together your education, having so little life experience outside of this weird experience and still trying to be relatable, be aware of how others live and find joy in simplicity. All considered, there are much much bigger mistakes she could make, as other huge stars have, much older, much more experienced, much more supported, media trained stars but she's smart, all these girls are, the ones that make it through in on piece, she knows every last consequence that would come from lying about this and before she made her public statement her lawyers and publicists will have been working around the clock, they will all have said, let's go over this one more time, are you sure this account of things reflects not only what happened but also reflects his intentions and what he meant to do by his actions, if you have any doubt do not risk your career. Her lawyers will have outlined every scenario before she spoke her truth and that's why I believe unequivocally that it is her truth.
I think she wanted to pretend this never happened, her instinct was denial or to bury it, I think she thought she was being silly and she should just shut up and I bet her instinct to do that made her angry and in her role as a talented young musician that so many young girls aspire to be like, I'm sure she was furious to be stripped of the respect she's worked so hard for and she thought NO, I've met, hugged, taken photos with my very young fans, they tell me how much they base their lives on their love of my music and work ethic and choices and if I saw someone do this to one of them my heart would break and die for them but if I speak out and it happens to one of them then they will know I understand how they feel, they will know it's not acceptable and they will stop it, report it and take their recovery seriously, take the self esteem blow seriously and seek to restore the balance and empower the body and mind that we're cruelly put at risk through a selfish greedy sexual assault. That's my educated observation and I've literally since treated patients young boys and girls who've told me that they were horribly effected by similar things and cut themselves off from the world too scared to say this happened and I need help not feeling this way incase people found the incident insignificant, they have acknowledged out loud in sessions that they felt violated, they felt two feet tall, they felt like nothing but a steak to be devoured or a chicken breast to be slapped and groped, they were nothing but meat until they realised how seriously Taylor took it, how seriously the world took it, how seriously wrong it is to do and that the consequences and subsequent million dollar lawsuits are proportional in consideration of that seriousness, they weren't being silly, they were reacting to a personal sexual violation and they deserved justice, their assailant deserved punishment and it was okay to discuss and seek treatment specifically until their bodies once again held esteem and value and strength was restored. Any visible publicised example where the victim is empowered and speaks up to say it's wrong and effected them serves as a breakthrough for the victims who value their opinions and respect them and see their value and tie their own value to their similarities and differences. If it helps even one of those people it is worth it and I've treated two girls and a boy under eighteen who all had breakthroughs in the wake of her public honesty so I'm very thankful she did what she has and people are small minded to consider the public aspect to be a meaningless media stunt, it's not empty and her brain would have to be completely empty not to have considered and to have been motivated by that powerful positive opportunity. She's saved a life, a life that's touched mine through work and touches hundreds of people through family, friends and school. I'm sure it's not so small and entitled and selfish as people assume it to be. I'm sure it's the best thing she could have done with her humiliation and outrage, she took a violation and saved lives she may never cross the path of. I can't emphasise enough how much more positive that is than being what we're taught to consider brave but is really just silence and hiding its effect. That's all. Sorry this is so long and six months too late, I just feel connected to this story and wanted to fully elaborate my stance, there's a limit to how specific I can be here but vaguely stated the life she saved, wasn't even a fan, doesn't know her music, prefers Korn and Seether, yet credits Taylor for the breakthrough, credits her for helping her feel like her body wasn't violated beyond repair and since then her progress has been phenomenal and she's the one providing energy and light to those in her vicinity.with that in mind, my stance remains that it was the right decision, for every girl or boy that lies for the same attention Taylor received or whatever it is people are worried about, for every imaginary bad experience, remembering bad people do bad things without prompting, regardless of that, for every bad thing, this girl is alive, she is the answer to any perceived negative. She didn't die that day. Again sorry this is long, I might delete this and go on with my life relieved of this explanation plaguing my inner frustrated self. Please don't take any of this personally you are all entitled to your own opinions and your own experience and I can entirely see how judgement may be clouded by the strong and constant display of vulgar celebrity lifestyle. I can see how it would cloud and lead to a mentality absent of the possibility that their actions could be selflessly motivated. Okay. No more words now. Rant concluded.
I've started to notice that Phil really likes to put: "Why people are freaking out..." in the title...
Well, it is an accurate descriptor, people do flip their shit at little stuff.
True... But he just does it so much! XD
I mean, Phil isn't a stranger to clickbait titles, but they're usually still true even when they're blown up, haha.
He also really likes "WOW!" 😂
Ian Afeita congrats, you notice trends...want a cookie?
Saying the North Korean's leader is part dog is an insult to all dogs!!!! Yea
Krivith Reddy Agreed. Dogs are so much more friendly and can actually be trained....
Samuel Langhus lol
Most Dogs are lovable :)
That part about Meuller's electronics made me laugh. So he had 6 possible copies of these clips and he lost every single one of them, and he fucked up so hard the judge went "You know what? I'm adding an extra sentence to your list; for being so incapable of taking care of evidence".
That is incredibly laughable.
lol everyone in the comments talking about Taylor swift lmao
fuck the nuclear missile crisis right?
guso benitez
Its not gonna happen unless we provoke first. North Korea has a bitchy leader who thinks that showing his toys will scare us off. We all know they won't fire until we do
Mr Independent yeah but it just shows what kind of society we live in , that's what I meant
We're all in denial about the nuclear missile stuff, just like many of us are still in denial about the elections. Can you blame us? I think many of us don't feel like we have control over our own government anymore. Sad but true.
guso benitez for real, wtf
And??? Are people not allowed to voice their opinions about it? If someone isn't discussing the middle crisis, does that make them lesser than a citizen? Does that make you a better person?
I have been through the process of trying to get someone charged for sexually assaulting me, it's an extremely gruelling and daunting process that takes a lot out of you mentally and emotionally. You have to go through so many police interviews, you have to relive what you went through every single time, you have to gather evidence, if you have any, as well as ask any friends or family who know what happened to go through those interviews too. And then, if you managed to make it that far, it's more months yet as the police conduct their investigation and you may go weeks without hearing a thing. If you're lucky, the case goes to court. If you're luckier, the case isn't thrown out the day before you're supposed to be in court.
I had to take a year off school just so I could recover, because my depression and anxiety got so bad, and I didn't get to see my abuser brought to justice.
If Taylor Swift, or any person, is willing to go through this entire process, then they must be telling the truth, or they are very dedicated to telling their lie.
PieOfEpicness so sorry about that :( I hope you are well. 🙏 the struggle is much bigger than just individual. Its in the world.
Personally, I think Taylor Swift is telling the truth. The photo and sudden "disappearance" of the evidence is enough for me to believe that she was sexually assaulted. Given her past, some might argue that she's just doing this for the headlines, publicity, etc. but who in the right mind would lie about something as serious as sexual assault for publicity? Hope she wins so that the money can be given towards the charity and they can both move on.
Joan Park I agree she isnt lying. But people have lied before about sexual assualt for attention and personal gain. But yeah I agree hes guilty
Taylor actually has been trying to hide from the media this whole year so she's definitely not doing this for attention. She's doing this cuz that guy is suing her.
I...eh.. uhm.. lots of people call sexual assault for publicity.. a genuinely large amount of folks have. Not saying she lied.. but.. uhm xD yeah
Joan Park I think it's very possible she's telling the truth. But, saying someone wouldn't lie about something that serious is not factually accurate. People have lied about worse for attention. Remember mattress girl? She was found to be a lair. And she accused several people of rape. I've heard many stories like this one as well. Some people are just twisted.
Joan Park who lie about sexual assault? UM.... Excuse me there people who lie about sexual assault. becuase any person can do is say this "is been raped by X" and that person life is runied.
This guy is actually pretty good at giving a neutral delivery of events and /then/ adding commentary to it
This must have been the guy looking after Hilary's emails
They send a Trump clone to look after Hillary's email? That makes sense.
I had Norovirus once. Worst experience of my life. Non-stop vomiting and diarrhea. Couldn't keep medicine down, couldn't sleep, almost ended up at the hospital. It was the morning of an audition I had for the New England Conservatory of Music. It lasted 24 hours, luckily they allowed me to audition the following day due to extreme circumstances. My abdominal muscles hurt for a week afterwards because the virus ate away at the lining of my stomach. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
CPPD like total and complete shit. And yeah it was about a billion times worse.
Arun Mangrulkar I've had it too when I was 8 honestly worst 48 hours of my life. Barely could keep water down and after you vomited you felt great then 5 minutes later you're back to dying at both ends. Those poor athletes
Arun Mangrulkar I had the dreaded norovirus 2 years ago & did end up in the hospital! That shit is nooo joke, I feel your pain!
Arun Mangrulkar Had it when I was a teen and my mom thought I was faking so I had to go with it all day
Last year a lunch lady was sick with norovirus at my college's residence. For dinner we were served traces of her vomit or poop in the food... 100+ kids got sick, including myself. I remember wakin up middle of the night with my head spinning, getting up to vomit &such literally every 5-10 minutes for 5 HOURS. i couldn't understand anything I was thinking, it was weird. The illness lasted for 2 days and on the third day i didnt have the strength to do anything but sleep. Fourth day i felt great tho!
Where is Ironman when we needed him? I'm pretty sure he can stop these missiles.
Natsu Dragneel nah he would die but superman can did u see bvs
Well, the USA doesn't have Ironman, but they do have the means to shoot down missiles.
why do you say that?
Natsu Dragneel Or James Franco and Seth Rogan
Natsu Dragneel rico Rodriguez
The body language on the photo is pretty damn clear. The "my boss did it" and "dog ate my laptop" excuses further makes it even clearer.
I love that comment about secmx with a dog "Wait that's too far back" just gold
That dude's face in that picture is enough to know If you should go near him or not xD
SenpieX He smiles like he'll touch your ass and whisper in your ear while doing it.
I just looked at the guy's face for 3 seconds and I already felt a grope.
Hey Phil I am from Guam and I wanted to point out how the media is covering more about the military bases here and not about the residents. The location of Guam is the closest US soil to the Korean regime which always puts us at risk. I believe as many will agree that the US is using our island for military purposes, we are US citizens but do not have the power to vote for our president, we have the highest enlistment per capita and the US still does not allow us to have a representative in congress that can vote in house. The bases here take us 1/3 of the island which our residents are barred from entering without being in the military. When we hear the news only talking about the military personnel numbers and not the population of our island this makes the residents feel they have to worry because we feel the US is treating us as "second class citizens" and has little worry for the residents.
damn that's fucked up man
what do you think about taxes though?
I feel the same way bro. The only time we here on Guam are ever mention to the mainland is Tourism and Military/war
Guam is considered an unincorporated territory, just like Puerto Rico. You're legally considered US Citizens, but you have your own constitution and government. Obviously your leaders don't really care about becoming a state, but it's not got anything to do with the US blocking it.
I saw a few big pieces about the citizens of Guam on the news today, although I agree that's not the focus and should be.
Omg the pic of Thad Castle during the talk about North Korea's Thad missile. Beautiful. I was LMAO!!
You know what I love about this show? You don't simply tell us that people are freaking out about something, you dive deep and explain to us WHY they are and why it's important. Good job to you and your dedicated team. We all have a lot of respect for what you do.
North Korea and the USA is like a DBZ episode. A bunch of screaming and powering up for a few episodes before the actual fight.
DarkKnight2301 or the Frieza fight.
and the attacks miss
We don't need the U.S.A to go super sayian
Promxy Mc USA will only go super sayian if North Korea hurts them in any way
Hahah, I think that's a long way away. It's probs gonna be another cold war getting warmer then ending.
As someone who is in Japan right now, here is my concise and very professional statement on the North Korean situation: AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHあああああああああアアアアアアアアアアアア
Sorry, I don't speak hentai
せんぱい。。。
I live in Japan too. Okinawa,Japan. I'm honestly not intimidated by North Korea at all.
japansace The US Air Force could literally destroy Korea in 13 minutes, without a single nuke. Kim ain't gonna do shit.
Have you seen North Korea's army? it's not as easy as it looks to completely take over them. The US can do it, but with the threat of nuclear attacks it's not as easy as it sounds.
"Check with your doctor to see if NOROVIRUS is right for you." 😂😂 I love you editor!!
My schools band came back from a compilation in Richmond,VA and the entire band had gotten the Norovirus but luckily the had come back on a Saturday and the school was notified by the hospital. The school quarantined the whole band/orchestra/ theater hall. That weekend they had specialist come in and clean the area. But later that year a group that went to HOSA competition came back with it and it wasn't caught and so more than half my school was out for a rage of two months. People kept showing up even though they knew they were sick because many of them were terrified of missing class.
So wait... North Korea launched two missiles on two American holidays.
July 4- Independence Day
July 28- The Emoji Movie theatre release date
Yooooo famsquad
That second one is world wide
Jackson McCrocklin YOU MADE MY DAY

Jackson McCrocklin sick fucks
I don't trust the dude too many changes in his story and trust me, I'm the last person who wants to defend Taylor Swift
budemawa yea same here. I never liked Taylor swift but all of the evidence (if it's even considered evidence) points in taylors favor. The fact that all of his electronic devices with any type of evidence happened to be destroyed is kind of suspicious plus the picture looks like he definitely had us hand on her butt or at least hovering over it.
SkinNYmini Did anyone else find it weird that he filed two years after being fired? It seems to me if we thought it was a wrongful termination we should have addressed it right away. I'm no a Taylor Swift fan, but I have been in situations like this. It's crazy how aggressive people will be, and then get defensive about once you call them out. There have been many times that I have been called bitchy for just asking a person to back off.
budemawa
True, because if this was about publicity she could've pulled a Kardashian and made a show,merch,TV fame and more.
hand placement just way too low, keep it higher and he wouldn't be in this situation
I despise her.... But I agree.... Begrudgingly
The North Korean Ambassador's quote was that "If we are attacked we will meet the full force of our nuclear capability... Etc... Et ..." It's a part of the quote that is being left out by a lot of new agencies... Just wanted to say and inform
Good point. And what you pointed out is one of many sides of the story that is left out when the world talks about North Korea. How about the fact that America has been pointing nukes at North Korea since 1950?
check out my channel. I talk about these topics in a easy and factual way. you won't regret it.
I work in the court system and it is so frustrating. Everyone is innocent until proven guilty, and I always try to remember that because I wasn't there; I don't know what happened. But then when you find out that the person is in fact guilty, but they spent years and thousands and thousands of dollars of court resources to fight it. Why can't people just own up to their actions anymore? Why do we have this culture of bad people doing bad things and then as soon as they get caught they cry and act like it was the world's fault. Sickening
I'm somewhat inclined to believe Taylor Swift because I don't see what she possibly gains by making up such an allegation unless she had some kind of personal vendetta against this guy.
Evelyn Emma attention?
Anakin Skywalker the original incident happened years ago. So, how on earth is it attention?
Anakin Skywalker if it's for attention she wouldn't have tried to keep it under raps. It's the guy who took it to court and made it public
Its publicity for her upcoming single and album, watch how she'll become "a better person because of it", she truly is disgusting.
I agree that Taylor Swift is probably telling the truth, and I agree that she is not making it up for attention (as she never made anything public about it until after he launched a lawsuit). HOWEVER, I do *not* believe her security guard, who claims he saw it. Why don't I believe the guard? Because what kind of guard sees her getting groped and lets the photo shoot happen?!?! If the guard saw that, he should have interrupted the shoot immediately and moved her away from the guy. OR, he's the world's worst guard. He saw his client getting molested and thought, "Eh, she's able to fend off a guy who weighs twice what she does." That guard lied or is awful at his job, either way he sucks.
Already collecting bottle caps
Ellias Sahtout underrated
Hopefully we become ghouls... not feral though...
I just wanna die immediately when the bombs drops
I'll just hide in my freezer fo4 style
MediocreAtBest-0 Gameplay sadly, we will all become feral... except Eddie winter. We need to be like Eddie winter
"his body language said, why didn't you give me cookies" LMAO
You always have to take every sexual assault case with skepticism. FOR BOTH SIDES! The fact he destroyed almost all evidence on his side definitely raises eyebrows. I honestly believe Taylor and there is photo evidence.
Does Will Smith age?
Big Smoke Money
Big Smoke It is sad that you feel you need to say it is rude to give races a compliment.
Big Smoke tell that to Mario Lopez, J-Lo or Salma Hayek. Latinos age extremely well, on par with blacks/african americans. Asian people look 19 until they're almost 40, then they seem to age very rapidly. White people are all downhill after 30. Latinos and blacks are the only ones who consistently look young throughout their lives, assuming you arent talking about latinos who spend the majority of their lives in direct sunlight. Latinos and blacks hair generally doesnt grey until very old also.
Actually, Big Smoke, you are right. Because of how genetics works, Black and Asian people age at a slower rate. They have this Elven-like effect, where they don't age at all, but around 55-60, they suddenly age all at once. Especially Asians. Many people have pointed out that Asian men and women don't seem to age a day until they reach their mid- to late-50s.
Technically, those who age the most 'Balanced' are White people. Latinos have an odd, jumpy sort of aging. They age to a certain amount, stop for about... A decade, then jump a decade ahead of where they are. Then that happens again. They get a decade over what they look like, and two decades of aging pass again.
It's a weird little factoid~
xBluegamerx no of course he doesn't....
UNSC? United Nations Space Command?
Some Guy ... Security council
Krpajda aw man and here I was hoping it would be something Halo related.
At least it's not UN Spacy.
Kit McSwaggins I was thinking the same thing. Gotta start that spartan program sooner rather than later right?
Dragon Within fuck yeah man that's what I'm talking about.
Phil, as a long time watcher I can say this is amongst your best videos. Your final segment , in my opinion is some of the best journalism you've ever done. You explained what was happening better than I've seen elsewhere while still adding humor. All the while keeping the composure and resilience to show this is a serious ordeal.
I hope to see it continue, sir.
I love that you included a picture of Thad in this video. He's probably one of my favorite tv show characters.
I mean, if you look at the Taylor Swift photo, you can see his hand is pretty low and his arm is extended. Also, there's enough space there for a large print Bible between the two of them. Taylor also seems to be as far away from the dude as she can get.
Seriously, North Korea needs to chill..
I hate the defence "I didn't assault these people. Therefore, I couldn't have assaulted this person". Just because you didn't do something to one person doesn't mean you didn't do something to another person. I absolutely loathe people who use this as a way to explain away wrongdoing.
I'm sure Donny never expected to be a president in the middle of a war.
Poor boy must be shitting himself at the thought.
Let us casually wait for Phil to be declared "FAKE NEWS" by someone because of that Kim Jong il joke
+lucien loch if you think that then why are you here bud.
lucien loch I hope YOU look back on yourself years from now and realise how much of an ass you are.

She's sueing for one dollar?
Danny The Spider nice meme
Danny The Spider It's supposed to be about a statement and not money
yea but like why not $2 huh?
She doesn't want money she just wants to make a point
Danny The Spider cuz any more than that and she's a dick for taking so much when she is so rich.
"Baby with a hand grenade" is the most accurate representation of North Korea I've ever heard. What do they expect to get out of pissing everyone off and making empty threats?
North Korea has been looking for a counter to US nuclear threats ever since General MacArthur requested authorization to nuke North Korea. Now that they finally have some nukes they are setting up the standard Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD) threats that if the US attacks them again, it will cost a lot of US lives. Trump then returned the expected counter threat. Hopefully Mr. Kim, Mr. Trump and their aides will then leave it at the same permanent stalemate as US vs. China.
8:21 "Check with your doctor to see if norovirus is right for you" LOL
This US-North Korea soap drama makes the Bachelorette season finale look as exciting as the ending of Futurama...
Check with your doctor to see if Norovirus is right for you.
I love these quick notes by the editors. So good!
He said no. 😢
TALK ABOUT DADDY O FIVE BEING CHARGED
Emma Sampson great, what did he get?
idk i think up to 5 years but they probably wont get that much
Emma Sampson where you get this info
+Luigi it's charged not convicted !
It's that Defranco guys fault. He's must have bribed the judge!
He might not appear off balance because he's holding something sturdy 😂😂😂 4:99 had me rolling
well.... the evidence speaks for itself.
and so far the evidence shows that Taylor is telling the truth.
Maria J she's a bitch. I like her music but she's a pretty shitty as a person.
Pretty shitty as a person meh bad *
+Eduardo Juarez okay still doesnt change the facts
Kkay la Negrita yea I wouldn't doubt he mistakenly did it. Could've been an accident but the proof is kind of against him so yea, but to make this much of a huge deal out of it kinda sucks for the guy. He's losing everything while Taylor swift rolls around in cash. He sued but he lost the case of course she had no reason to do a counter. Should've just let it be but ah idk.
Absolutely she may be a shitty person but that doesn't mean she's in the wrong in this particular incident.
Whether that dude touched Swift or not I really hate that line (paraphrased) "i've met a bunch of celebrities before and never groped one before!" Such a bullshit line, i'm sure every single rapist/murderer/thief/whatever met hundreds of people without committing a crime on them, doesn't negate the one time they did.
Saying that, sounds pretty clear to me that he did try and touch her.

WTF- What's This Friday but why? Where is that ass? I can't see it? What on earth did he grab? Her bones?
Where's the proof
I've talked to thousands of people in my life but never raped a single one. Do I get a cookie?
Hey Philip! I just wanted to mention that after discovering your show a few months ago, I have been a daily viewer, even going back to older videos. I did want to mention that your show intro mentioned Wednesday, and I had to verify on the calendar that it is indeed Tuesday. So yeah my first comment to your channel is a nitpick on the date! Keep up the good work!
Phil gotta say the dirty memes were on point today. The Thad picture made me laugh so hard.
Is a peaceful solution to North Korea even possible?
We've essentially just been penning them in and ignoring the problem.
If they get a workable nuclear arsenal, then how long before they actually use it against someone?
While attacking North Korea would have deadly consequences, especially for South Korea, the amount of damage they could do is often greatly overblown (Seoul would not be utterly destroyed for example, and they have many bunkers around the city and evacuation procedures) but if NK can actually get a working nuclear arsenal, then suddenly that means the entire city could actually be wiped out.
Considering how famously unstable they are, one wonders if not acting now may lead to even greater tragedy later than acting now would bring.
Yea this is a great point. Been going through the comments finding someone pointing this out.
The world should've acted before they got their nukes. I feel its too late. We can't trust them with those nukes & missiles.
North Korea is not just gonna bomb Philadelphia out of the blue. Doing that would just be an assurance that their own country would be destroyed.
The 1st problem is that the only ones hit by war with North Korea are both their civilians and those of South Korea and Japan. You can't just blow up a country because you don't like the leaders, especially when their neighboring countries will take the 90% of the hit for you. Just saying everything will be fine if they give away their nuclear weapons ain't realistic either. The last person who would be safe if he gave up his weapons was Gaddafi. The US then promptly attacked him, right after he gave up his nuclear weapons for peace with the US.
Also, look at this from North Korea's side. For years the US has threatened them with a war and possibly using their nuclear arsenal. North Korea in turn starts building nukes, maybe as a deterrence. We talk about North Korea having a manbaby as a leader, but have you looked at the US. Trump is just pushing North Korea further and further in a corner, until they are pushed so far they attack a few cities (where millions of civilians die) and in turn essentially destroy their whole country (cause that is what will happen with retaliation). In no way is that a move that will be made when you have any other options. But pushing them further into a corner the entire time certainly won't de-escalate the tensions and will only bring us closer to a full out nuclear war.
Zikar how long? Well that depends, at what point do they intend to commit suicide? The NK regime wants to preserve itself. It's not even mutually assured destruction, it's firing a few missiles and immeadiately being destroyed. It's not a good situation, but we have to stop fear mongering. NK loves to posture as propaganda for it's citizens, but they won't attack us. There is a reason SK news outlets aren't covering this as extensively as we are, as Phillip said in the video. Even though they are most at risk to attack by North Korea, they know the chances of their attack are slim.
+Blacktommer35 your entire argument hinges on the belief that Kim Jong Un will act in a rational manner, imo that's some pretty shaky foundation to build an argument
This is kinda sad but the reality is this; whole drama with North Korea will end kinda in one way, somebody finally destroying the place and overthrowing the government.
Unfortunately, that's the only ending I see, too :(
Ram Kitten nice profile pic ;)
Thanks!
At least it will be the right thing to do?
+Ramm relax - no one is going to be nuking anyone. This is all just childish posturing by NK as usual.
LMAO "why didnt you give me cookies" 😂
I was on a cruise once that had an outbreak of Norovirus, and they literally did nothing except give infected people pain meds
Holding on to something STURDY.. LOL 😂 😂 😂
Kim Jong-il plus a certain breed of dog = Kim Jong-Un. No further questions... :D
Creative North lol that's a perfect equation!
i laughed so hard when I saw that part of the video rofl
Creative North that's so harsh, even for a half-man half-dog mongoloid hahaha
Poor dog :D
no wonder kim jong un looked like that
i always love watching Phil's show because it not only gives me the news i need, but it also gives me other videos to watch afterwards with today in awesome
7"0 millions people being held hostage by the north" sounds like the entire plot of Game of thrones.
I caught the Norovirus early January this year, best way to describe it is it feels like you're dying but you don't.
does anybody else wonder who takes the video during those missile tests and gets it to the public? or is it just me...
Jong ye he's going to hell like the guy that found out you can milk a cow
It's probably the North Korean government themselves. They want the world to know that they have missiles.
Jong it shows RT in the corner of the videow so its Russia Today, the Russian news channel
Jong north korea news stations
I love how he chuckles at the word "diarrhea," I would've done so as well.
As a person who has experienced sexual assault I believe Taylor, the picture and everything else just shows that it was intentional sexual assault. To people saying she should've said something, its hard when I was assaulted I was silent I just got away from the situation but it wasn't like Taylor could just leave and obviously its very scary you feel yourself freeze.
I'm not a huge fan of the Taylor Swift persona but I'm leaning towards her side however this is just another case where it's nearly impossible to reach a conclusion beyond a reasonable doubt.
its a civil case so its not like the dude will get jail time just no money and a ruined reputation
+xocuievxo But that's the point. He's claiming that Swift ruined his reputation while Swift is claiming that he ruined his own reputation. Tbh, I side with Swift on this. The circumstantial evidence is way too leading here. If it looks like a dog, smells like a dog, and barks like a dog, it's most likely a dog.
The Ace Of Spades Yeah, when Phil started talking about how he managed to break 2 laptops, an iPad, and got rid of a phone, it pretty much sealed the deal for me, you dont break that much stuff accidentally
Why is he suing her? He has no way to convince the court that she is lying. If he was unjustly fired, he should be suing the company that violated his rights.
Well, the lack of a police report is there. She's accused him of assault and gotten him fired, gotten his reputation trashed. If he did indeed grope her, if it was an intentional violation of her person as Swift claims that it was, why didn't she call the police? She's suing him for assault, that's not a light charge. While the picture and the "accidents" with all of his electronics don't paint him in a good light the accusations coming long after the opportunity to properly document the supposed altercation has passed doesn't do much for her either.
The Thad at 14:17 was hilarious and definitely deserving of a like!
In San Antonio there were two cases of legionnaires disease that broke out last week at hospital BAMC
I am fortunate that I am an artist/performer. When I deal with other artists, I am aware that we, as a group, are extremely sensitive to physical contact with strangers and overly sensitive to physical proximity with those we are not comfortable around. I know I'm like that (as are about three quarters of my musical/graphic artist) friends, so I can empathize with Ms Swift. If the man in question was "too close", or was assuming a level of physical intimacy that was not shared, then he should've known better . . . he did report he's been around "hundreds of artists". If he hasn't learned appropriate physical conduct/etiquette around artists by now, then he's a lost cause.
On the other hand, I have known artists to assume intent when there was none. That's one of the downsides of extraordinary creativity-seeing patterns that may or may not exist. And no offense to Ms Swift meant.
This is a gray area, to be sure, but a professional would NEVER have let his or her hand drift into a potentially compromising pose on camera during a photo shoot without asking permission FIRST. Wayyy too many artists have experienced sexual abuse along the way. He should already know that . . . if he's got any empathy at all. I work in a band, on and off, where the lead singer was too pretty as a youngster, and was seriously abused by friends of family until their perfidy was finally uncovered. As a group, we are often perceived as targets by abusers. Our very celebrity is a turn on to perves and nice folks, alike. The nice folks just treat us with respect, while the perves . . . well, you know . . .
Oh No... N.K. is pissed at the UNSC? Call in the Master Chief!
Here's a synopsis of what James Damore said: "Men and women are different but I think they should be treated the same."
How is that harmful?
Thomas Miller Bingo
Thomas Miller because according to some on the left, there are more then two genders.
I'm just guessing here.
its harmful because a white male said it
Nama Jeff No that summarizes it pretty well. He said men are better at some things and women at others. He never once said anything negative.
These replies should be good
Oh yeah man I accidently threw my pc, phone, tv, laptop and my common sense out the window
Taylor is telling the truth. There's no way this man didn't assault her. I've survived assault and abuse and have been actively advocating for survivors of these crimes for nine years. Every survivor responds in their own way afterwards. Taylor's behavior is not uncommon. Most survivors just want to forget it ever happened and move on. I hope she gets the justice she deserves and can heal.

I'm based in the UK and my bedtime is getting later just so I can catch your show. More entertaining than Morning Joe to get my US news. Thanks :)
Drinking Game: Take a shot every time Phil says IAAF
That miller guy pretty much addimited he's guilty when he destroyed evidence.
Taylor is so famous, I'm sure she would know that the risk of being caught in a lie, wouldn't be worth losing her career, so I don't think she's lying here. She wouldn't have made accusations like this if they weren't true, with so many eyes on her, she would realize that being sneaky won't turn out well
Oh yeah. I feel like she should know better than anyone then about lying in court if she's done it before and got caught. Idk though
And yet she has to prove it, so your thinking that she has little reason to lie is irrelevant.
mia morales she didn't lie about the Kanye West thing tho🤔
Tom Franco of course, I'm not saying that he's guilty or that she's telling the truth because obviously no proof has been presented of either way. At this point in time though I have the feeling that she's truthful here, though mere feelings are irrelevant in court of course
Her body gaurd saying he saw it happen makes me suspicious of her story. If the body gaurd and cameraman saw this happen why did they simply continue to take the picture?
I see what you did there at 8:20 😂 😂 😂
11:38 savage, did not expect that lmao
With the North Korea - U.S. situation escalating so quickly, I'm legitimately beginning to fear for my safety. Sure we may be able to wipe them out if they attack us, but that doesn't mean North Korea won't hurt us back. If they just shoot one nuclear missile to New York millions will die instantly, and that's just one missile. If they really do attack us, it will be as many of our major cities within their range. What I'm trying to say is... I'm looking forward to the early release of Fallout 5!
Dont be scared bro. The whole point of having nukes is to not use them. It's called nuclear deterrence. North Korea is developing nuclear weapons in the hope of getting actual major world powers to listen to them. North Korea basically wants to hold us hostage. Their GDP is already only 9 billion dollars, its not like they have a booming economy. Kim Jong-Un basically sees nukes as his get out of jail free card. Trust me everything the Kim's do is for the safety of their own dynasty and highly doubt they will ever actually use their nukes.
*HB SKATE -* Wow, that surprisingly did actually make me feel a bit better about the whole situation, thanks man!
HB SKATE I hope you're right
The risk to the US is non existent. Their missiles are WWII tech which fail far more then succeed. Furthermore even if the missile does succeed to achieve the range needed, the nuclear process to cause a detonation would most likely fail, given most their tests fail already and they have only done controlled underground testing and not missle testing. Lastly they are easily traceable and the area is watched, any missiles would be shot down before getting anywhere near the US mainland or any US territory.
The only real concern is to the local area, South Korea and Japan(though not that great) specifically, and this is moreso due to non-nuclear damage from mortar fire and non-nuclear short range missiles which are much harder to defend against.
I went to the comments to see how people were reacting to the North Korean issue.
EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT TAYLOR SWIFT. PRIORITIES PEOPLE, PRIORITIES.
It's a big surprise, tho. We knew USA and North Korea had nukes, but we didn't know Taylor Swift had an ass
Oh. If you look at the picture, right above where his hand disappears behind her hip, there's a weird corner-esque shape not caused by gravity, but by the fabric being pushed upward. He almost definitely at least felt her up over the dress.
I love you so much for putting Thad Castle up at the same time as the THAAD. Glad someone else has watched that beautiful show
If this issue with North Korea and the United States wasn't real and wasn't so terrifying I'd be grabbing popcorn😂
It's not terrifying at all, I am eating popcorn lol.
North Korea is a joke. A hilarious one, too.
They are a joke with a nuke,
E G G and no allies lol.
Trinity Joseph they shouldn't be scary with they're position diplomatically and they're comparatively tiny arsenal compared most other countries that they threaten
That's basically what other countries are doing until they get dragged into this.
Anyone else hear that daddy of 5 got convicted for 5 years in prison and a $5k fine?
Thomas Birtles no because that's the maximum charge that they can get, not their exact charge.
How people are treating the threat of North Korea reminds me of "The Wall will Protect us" From Game of Thrones, and you know the wall isn't going to protect them.
'or he's on balance because he's holding onto something sturdy'
Oooo that was funny Phil xxxxx
I'm being told that Average Joe's does not have enough players and will be forfeiting the championship match.
It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for 'em.
I hope everyone leaves as side everything they think or view of Taylor Swift, and be objective and not biased about this assault case.
Hiba Yamin Pfft. This is the internet. "Unbiased" isn't a word here.
Red Big'un true, but i hope people would first look into this from a fresh start than whatever they had in mind about her, because of "snake" thing they keep bashing at her..
Tbh, I love his "fire and fury" comment. It's so game of thrones and I love game of thrones so I mean
During the Ebola thing in Nigeria, it was like being thrown into an apocalypse movie....geez
WHOOPS. I BROKE EVERYTHING THAT HAD EVIDENCE. I AM SAH CLUMSY AND SORRY. didnt grope her tho
Bullshit.
0:34 she is suing for 1 dollar?
Anthony Ozie I caught that too. Da fuck?
Anthony Ozie yep
Phil meant to say $1 million... Right???
Elkin Shiner no, she is suing him for one dollar...for real
Because she more concerned with actual justice then what she gets because of the court case.
A scumbag goes down. Should be what matters. Compensation is nice, some times required. But shouldn't be a focus.
"Kim Jon Il had sex with a dog. Wait that's to far back." 😂😂😂I lost my shit in that part.
