On today's show, we discuss the Portland shooting, the Kyle Rittenhouse case, and the hate crimes committed at Black Lives Matter and Antifa rallies across the country. We also discuss the VMAs and whether or not they were really as bad as they made out to be.
00:01:53.000So we'll get into all that, but beforehand, subscribe to Crowder Bits, of course, if you're subscribed on the YouTube, because it's another channel, and this one doesn't always get necessarily monetized.
00:02:04.000Apple Podcasts, Android, you can listen on audio, and we will be taking your live chat later, but exclusively at loudwithcrowder.com slash MugClub.
00:02:11.000We don't do the super chat on the YouTube, because they already have enough info on us They do.
00:02:16.000We don't need to give them any more ammunition.
00:02:17.000And my question is, have you heard of the latest three attempted murders and or successful murders, I hate using the term successful, but effective murders on behalf of Black Lives Matter and Antifa, or as the leftists in Congress refer to it, a figment of your imagination?
00:02:32.000Have you heard about the Portland shooting?
00:02:33.000Because I've been watching CNN all morning and very, very little.
00:02:38.000But I watched Brian Stelter do a whole, we need to step up in the media.
00:02:41.000And by the way, I show you how to do that in my latest book that nobody is buying.
00:02:47.000But somehow it's number one on the New York Best Times.
00:02:56.000The VMAs, before we get to all that, the VMAs last night, of course, were an opportunity for folks to spout Black Lives Matter talking points.
00:05:00.000Now, we'll get into, I know, because you can't just say, well, and everything else, none of them are legitimate COVID deaths, because sometimes, like with the flu, it's flu and pneumonia.
00:05:05.000However, do you know what the average amount of comorbidities or serious underlying conditions were for the remaining 94%?
00:06:49.000Maybe he should have thought about that before sending out his tweet the night of the shooting with no facts and saying, we can't continue to do this.
00:06:56.000This is just like all these other cases, which is not like any of the other cases he mentioned.
00:12:00.000So I warn you, it's not graphic, but it is disturbing.
00:12:03.000I think that even though this isn't the most graphic clip we've seen, this is a Patriot prayer member being shot by a 100% Antifa advocate in Portland.
00:12:10.000But here, just listen to what takes place, and I think it's bone chilling.
00:12:42.000Now that guy there, and this is important because we'll get to some of the other situations with like John Oliver and fact-checking PolitiFact, what matters here is they didn't say he was a Nazi or a fascist.
00:12:54.000They said, we've got a Trumper here, which means that in their mind, it's enough.
00:12:59.000And people say, that's just one extremist.
00:13:18.000When they tried to falsely label Dylann Roof a far-right extremist, even though he was a self-avowed, I think, socialist, the right right away said, well, of course, that's horrible.
00:13:27.000It should be absolutely, completely condemned right away.
00:13:30.000And you couldn't find any conservatives or right-wingers celebrating it at all.
00:14:42.000I went and I looked at the different websites they have for the BLM chapters, because I wanted to just kind of, you know, doing some fact-checking, etc.
00:14:49.000And some of them don't say what they stand for, which is not good in and of itself.
00:14:53.000But then a few others just have the blatantly, like, point seven, defund the police.
00:14:57.000Take their entire budget, give it to other things, do not have policing.
00:15:17.000What about this guy with the face tattoo and the teardrop, who by the way of course was a criminal from what we understand, what we know about the shooter now.
00:15:27.000I don't want to give any misinformation because we do some research behind the scenes before the media confirms it, but from... Hey, Joe Louis, where's he going?
00:15:44.000So this happened, Antifa was celebrating, they're not said that a fascist died, but the guy didn't shoot him because he was a fascist, the guy shooted him, uh, shooted him.
00:15:50.000The guy bought in his bullets, I'm sorry, everyone give me crap for that, I deserve it.
00:15:55.000I should be flogging myself and placing myself in a burlap sack, I can't believe I said shoot it.
00:16:51.000Why don't you say the names of exclusively... Why are you so divisive, President?
00:16:55.000Why don't you say the names of exclusively black people even though it's a smaller percentage of those with police interactions than white people who were shot by police?
00:17:00.000Because why don't you... Why are you dividing the country?
00:17:07.000And by the way, the last thing that he said there, and you called white supremacists good people.
00:17:11.000Yes, by the way, in case you were wondering as to is he divisive himself, not only that, but he's also a liar, because this is one of the most common myths out there, and if you spout this myth off there, you are, I don't know what I'm saying, if you spout this myth off there, if you spout this nonsense, you are either a liar or an idiot.
00:17:56.000And those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including the KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans.
00:18:12.000We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry, and violence It has no place in America.
00:18:24.000I'm not sure if that's the briefing from the day where people were saying he didn't say it because where he said, I'm not referring to neo-Nazis, white supremacists who should be condemned totally.
00:18:38.000He said it the same day, before he said there were fine people on both sides.
00:18:41.000He said, I'm not talking about neo-Nazis, white supremacists who should be condemned totally.
00:18:44.000And that was a small portion of it, then said, but there were fine people on both sides, meaning people who were pro-monument, people who were anti-monument.
00:18:49.000And then he reiterated, which was what I believe we just saw the next day.
00:19:27.000It doesn't matter how many times I do that.
00:19:28.000It doesn't matter how many times you do that.
00:19:30.000It doesn't matter how many times Joy Reid says it, it doesn't matter how many times this guy says it, because nobody will go out there and go, oh, wait, I'll actually look at the video and realize they're lying.
00:19:39.000They put this in motion, and now everybody thinks that Donald Trump thinks that white supremacists and racists are good people too.
00:19:48.000That's why we pick apart what they say.
00:19:50.000Just like what we'll move on to the Kenosha shooting with Cal Rittenhouse in a little bit, where they say, well, it's illegal, he was there committing a crime with his gun.
00:20:01.000We've been having to fact check them for so... When people say 20,000 lies and counting from Donald Trump, it's him saying, you know, uh, I believe that the man is a 72.
00:22:23.000Do you think that if leftists were not writing history for generations to come and teaching history in public schools, do you think that people will actually look back on this moment and say, Can you believe those people said all lives matter?
00:23:11.000Well, and then everybody came out, not only to support that, but they said we have to support black-owned businesses after all of these riots.
00:23:16.000And I'm like, Uber, you're supporting, you're actually pushing me towards black businesses.
00:23:22.000It pushes me potentially away from other businesses that are not black-owned, that are white-owned, that are Asian-owned, that are Hispanic-owned, that are people that just came here first-generation-owned.
00:23:31.000How about just supporting good businesses?
00:23:42.000You know, that guy's crime that was walking down the street literally was just being white and in the wrong place.
00:23:47.000And by the way, this is where I was really clear about this, I tweeted this, just I think it was yesterday, that if you loot, you riot, you break it, you forfeit your right to live.
00:23:57.000Now let me be really clear about this, that is not the same as deserve to die, right?
00:24:05.000I'm not saying that if you run up and hit someone with a brick that you deserve to die, provided that man doesn't die.
00:24:11.000What I am saying is there is a legal right to self-defense and if you are running up to a man with a brick and that guy happened to turn around and he is fearing for his life, you have put him in a position to protect his life Or, by the way, his livelihood burning down his business.
00:24:24.000You forfeit your right to live because you have to accept the consequences.
00:24:28.000You run at someone with a brick, you forfeit your right to live.
00:24:30.000Not the same as saying you deserve to die.
00:24:32.000You break a window in a business, you forfeit your right to live.
00:24:34.000You invade a home, you forfeit your right to live.
00:24:36.000You light a fire underneath a car, you forfeit your right to live.
00:24:39.000You try and hit someone in the head with a skateboard, you forfeit your right to live.
00:24:50.000However, I absolutely support protective, defensive, violent measures when situations like this are arising.
00:24:58.000Whether it's a brick, whether it's a skateboard, whether it's a Molotov cocktail, whether it's someone breaking into your business, I am sorry, but it is at the point where you don't want Kyle Rittenhouse's out there because people should be protecting their own stuff and they need to be emboldened to do so.
00:25:11.000Yeah, and we're calling on people, don't put us in a position where we have to defend ourselves.
00:25:16.000Don't put us in a place where I have to wonder if you're gonna kill me and my wife and my child.
00:25:28.000You know, when you look at the stories, the stories are often forgotten about why castle laws or castle doctrines or stranger ground laws even came into place.
00:25:35.000They have all of the same stories about people and people, regardless of race, regardless of gender, you have men and women, people of color who are there saying, We need the ability to be able to protect our lives and our livelihoods, and that is the genesis for these laws at number 8.
00:25:51.000Now, years on, they're being twisted and turned into justification for public executions of people of color.
00:25:57.000I was at the shooting range on Saturday, and I counted the number of people there.
00:26:15.000I mean, there were people there showing people, there were people being trained, people getting CHLs, people buying firearms, learning about firearms, talking about ammunition.
00:26:23.000When I went to buy 9mm, it was all black people and Latinos.
00:26:26.000And they were in this area, and they had come from downtown, from a rougher area.
00:26:29.000Like, yeah, there's nothing there, so we came out to the suburbs.
00:26:33.000This was a black couple, and we ended up having a conversation, I talked about it on the show, about Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis, Joe Frazier, those three fights, who was a better boxer, and I'm sure the guy probably will vote Biden.
00:26:42.000I'm not saying he was a black guy with a MAGA hat selling a gimmick, right?
00:26:45.000This was a guy who just had had enough, and that's a huge portion of black voters right now.
00:26:50.000Right, and it doesn't matter what party you're in, like you said, you want safety.
00:26:53.000You want security in your community, and when the police don't provide it, or when the police are being forced not to provide it, either through defunding, or being held back, or curfews that are not enforced, or whatever it may be, you have to go, okay, well what happens if this happens in my neighborhood?
00:27:06.000I'm seeing it too often on TV right now.
00:29:08.000The famous line in the first, I believe, the first Dirty Harry film was, When I see a man chasing a woman with intent to rape, I shoot the bastard.
00:29:20.000And how'd you figure that out, Callahan?
00:29:22.000When I see a naked man chasing a lady down an alleyway with a butcher knife, with a hard-on and a butcher knife, I figure he's not collecting for the Red Cross.
00:29:36.000Everyone's going, yeah, because people felt powerless.
00:29:38.000People felt powerless and they wanted teeth back to the enforcement and rule of law because at that point it was this idea of police brutality.
00:29:47.000But it was more understandable because you had a lot of officers only a few years prior hosing people down with fire hoses and German shepherds because they wanted to get a slice of pecan.
00:29:56.000So I understand it because those people had lived It doesn't mean it was right to vilify all officers because,
00:30:01.000even though you may not learn this in history, most of them, many of them I should
00:33:16.000So they're pushing people to feel afraid, like, you know, the police are against you and we can come in and fix this.
00:33:21.000Historically, people have never run to Democrats when they feel unsafe.
00:33:25.000They always run to Republicans in voting.
00:33:27.000So I have no idea why they think that this is a good strategy, and then obviously we've had that clip a couple times with Don Lemon and Cuomo where, like, it's showing up in the polling, oh god, we probably ought to stop rioting.
00:34:05.000You guys have been the ones saying that every time a black man is shot, whether he's trying to kill a police officer or not, it is racism with no evidence.
00:34:12.000Or whether he's breaking into the house of the lady he already sexually assaulted and the police have a warrant out for his arrest and resist officers and says, officers, I have a knife.
00:34:41.000Women don't go to the cops because they don't feel believed.
00:34:44.000And by the way, the definition there was regretful PNV, not actual rape.
00:34:48.000Here we have a woman, from what I understand, a woman of color, who Jacob Blake domestically abused, sexually assaulted, allegedly was charged for.
00:35:00.000In other words, Me Too wants baseless accusations without any sort of accountability, but they don't support women of color when they actually go through the process to try and prevent a sexual assaulter from committing it against another woman.
00:35:13.000Despite the fact that apparently all black people are... She would have thought that she was just going to get lit up like the Fourth of July going to the officers.
00:35:43.000The officers say, thanks for letting us know.
00:35:45.000Thank you for doing the right thing, woman of color.
00:35:48.000We're going to show up and protect you.
00:35:50.000Tase doesn't work, and that man's about to drive off with children and a knife from the house of the woman he just sexually assaulted.
00:35:58.000Why don't you care about women of color?
00:35:59.000Why don't you care about victims of violent sex crimes?
00:36:03.000Well, Jacob Blake wasn't being nominated for the Supreme Court, so there's no sex crime there.
00:36:09.000Although I don't know that this would preclude him.
00:36:12.000If you made a joke about a short and curly on a Diet Coke can, then problem.
00:36:20.000But the point here is it's time, actually, as we go back now to the Kyle Rittenhouse story.
00:36:25.000We just went through hate crimes, but this is remarkable to me.
00:36:28.000PolitiFact, and a lot of people actually trust them, and of course they're considered authoritative by organizations like YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook.
00:36:35.000Yeah, people, we're just, you know, people.
00:36:37.000And then you can see everyone else just copy-paste the points from PolitiFact because you'll see them make, it's like copying an Asian's test who's not good at math and making the same math mistakes.
00:36:46.000That's what happens with John Oliver and CNN when PolitiFact gets a verifiable error actually published on their website.
00:36:54.000So it's time to fact check the fact checker fact checkers So much
00:37:05.000Which we don't have this year in the If I'm reading quite a bit, it's because I want to get the quotes right and it's a little bit nerdy.
00:37:12.000But first, let's set this up so you can all see how John Oliver presented the situation, how it relates to PolitiFact.
00:37:19.000Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17-year-old who traveled there from out of state and was illegally carrying a weapon, killed two people.
00:37:25.000And look, I don't know if he saw the McCloskeys speak the night before he chose to drive to a city he didn't live in to defend property he didn't own.
00:37:34.000What I do know is that he was an avid Trump supporter, even sitting front row at a rally back in January.
00:37:40.000The Trump-Rittenhouse media ecosystem have been delivering essentially the same message as the McCloskeys for years now.
00:37:46.000And he goes on to describe it as murders, by the way, in there, which is like, hmm, I don't know about, uh, if he could be another Sandman, uh, Nick Sandman, but seems to me that, uh, allegedly he was illegally carrying a firearm.
00:38:57.000The fact is, you're killing people who support Trump openly.
00:39:00.000I don't know if you understand what fascism means.
00:39:03.000I don't think that word means what you think it means.
00:39:05.000Again, question is, have you seen these race crimes that have been committed, the hate crimes in the name of race and organizations like Black Lives Matter, and have you spotted this?
00:39:12.000This is the source, the PolitiFact source.
00:39:15.000First, Rittenhouse, the defense team, has released a statement about crossing state lines.
00:39:20.000It said, after Kyle finished his work that day as a community lifeguard in Kenosha, keep in mind when they say, he went to a city where he doesn't live, he's a lifeguard there.
00:39:28.000It's a shorter drive time than most Americans commute, than the average Americans commute.
00:39:51.000Kyle and a friend armed themselves with rifles due to deadly violence gripping Kenosha and many other American cities and headed to the business premises.
00:39:56.000The weapons were in Wisconsin and never crossed state lines.
00:39:59.000Upon the sound of a gunshot behind him, Kyle Turner was immediately faced with this goes through exactly what happened with the actual shootings, the killings.
00:40:10.000But the child rapist, allegedly, still up there.
00:40:14.000This is the issue, though, too, is with the Rittenhouse situation we've talked about, this is why the left supports Palestine over Israel, despite the fact that they use children as human shields.
00:40:22.000This is why they support child rapists over people who are exercising their Second Amendment rights, because if you're successful, you're bad.
00:40:30.000If you're poor, you inherently have the moral high ground.
00:40:32.000If you were killed, you inherently have the moral high ground.
00:40:34.000How else do you explain Jacob Blake being supported and people completely Uh, abstaining from including any information about the woman he sexually assaulted who was of color and actually filed a restraining order and went through the steps.
00:40:46.000He was probably glad the police showed up that day.
00:40:49.000It's probably very... She called them!
00:41:00.000Alright, so let's go to the PolitiFact article here on the Written House, because I want everyone, and share this if you can, I usually don't ask that with that self-promotion, but it's important to go, and I found most of this information, hey, AR-15, I believe the message board, I think I found a lot of this information from a poster, a random poster there, because I know it wasn't on Reddit.
00:41:19.000So PolitiFact, they were checking whether it was legal for Rittenhouse to open carry, right?
00:41:24.000The Wisconsin Department of Justice honors concealed carry permits issued in Illinois, but Rittenhouse did not have a permit to begin with, and he was not legally old enough to carry a firearm in Wisconsin.
00:41:45.000They're typically designed for pistols because it's difficult to conceal a long gun, a rifle, unless you're mounting on each other's shoulders like little rascals in a trench coat.
00:41:58.000I don't want to spend too much time on it.
00:42:00.000But here's another claim, again from PolitiFact.
00:42:02.000Wisconsin law stipulates that any person under 18 years of age who possesses or goes armed with a dangerous weapon is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.
00:42:08.000PolitiFact links to the wrong section here.
00:42:12.000They linked section 948605, bracket 2, instead of 948601, and they failed to include the information from that same section that, by the way, invalidates the prior clause.
00:42:25.000It states that any person under 18 years of age who possesses or goes armed with a dangerous weapon is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.
00:42:30.000However, then it says, this section applies only to a person under 18 years of age who possesses or is armed with a rifle or shotgun if the person is in violation of S94128 or is not in compliance.
00:43:09.000The section applies to regulate short-barreled shotguns rifles, which is not what he was carrying.
00:43:14.000We've all heard about the sawed-off shotguns, right?
00:43:16.000Here's another one that I really love from PolitiFact.
00:43:18.000Oh, by the way, let them know if I'm hitting these facts if they're correct.
00:43:23.000This is from In fact, John Monroe, an attorney who specializes in gun rights, told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that there's an exception for rifles and shotguns, which is aimed at letting children ages 16 and 17 hunt that could apply.
00:43:33.000But Rittenhouse wasn't in Kenosha to hunt.
00:44:01.000By the way, this is one of those things, let's just keep in mind, this is what they're focusing on because the self-defense claim seems to, even the New York Times said it's airtight.
00:44:08.000So they want to focus on the misdemeanor, and if he were, if he happened to be illegally carrying a firearm, that is a misdemeanor, it's not relevant to the charges of murder in the first degree.
00:44:17.000And you guys argued that because you said that it wasn't relevant when Michael Brown committed a violent crime at a convenience store on his way to commit another violent crime against the officer.
00:44:26.000I would say that's more relevant than a guy bringing a firearm to defend himself.
00:44:55.000So when the facts were coming out, every state has its own laws.
00:44:58.000When those laws were coming out and people were talking about them in the wake of the Rittenhouse shooting, There were a lot of questions, right?
00:45:03.000I even remember texting with friends and folks on the show.
00:45:05.000It was like, well, here are going to be some of the important facts.
00:45:31.000That's why I think when PolitiFact is citing a guy who says the opposite of what they say, they really want him to say what they said he said, though.
00:47:14.000Did the shooter have anything to say about it?
00:47:17.000Usually it takes weeks to figure out a motive because they're not so much of a dumbass when they say, would you like to have an attorney present?
00:48:36.000During the daytime, you see protesters calling for racial justice, calling for an end to police brutality.
00:48:42.000In the evening hours, there has been violence relegated to this one area.
00:48:46.000The president tries to build the city as under siege, which is not true.
00:48:48.000What happened on Saturday was something we haven't seen to the degree in the past, and that is not just protesters demonstrating against law enforcement, but hundreds of pro-Trump supporters coming into the city See, that's when it got bad.
00:50:52.000And here's the thing, if you were to be informed by, and we have CNN on just because, you know, people have trusted them as legitimate news and they still use the slogan, just the facts.
00:51:51.000Well, they didn't have a guy with self-defense to claim, right?
00:51:55.000So they wanted to show something else.
00:51:58.000This is such a disservice to the American public.
00:52:01.000You have no leg to stand on when you get outraged if someone says that the media is the enemy of the American people right now.
00:52:06.000The biased media right now is making Americans less safe than ever before because they hate President Donald Trump.
00:52:15.000It is remarkable, and we weren't Trump guys in the primary, but I will say I don't think anyone else would have brought this to a head the way President Trump has, and there is value in that, because before 2016, there was still a majority of Americans who thought that CNN was, my God, actual journalism.
00:52:42.000He's has he's got his own platform He can go around you media.
00:52:45.000He can call you Barack Obama and Fox News.
00:52:48.000Yeah, just that's the only network So when Donald Trump does it it's everyone not named Fox News So they feel the sting a little bit more and then he gets pissed at Fox News for not going far enough sometimes and I'm like, okay He's pissed off all of the media and he doesn't care and that's what has really got them in a TV Like what do we do?
00:53:02.000We have to say everything bad about this guy that we can because he's going around us right now.
00:53:05.000If you are in Portland right now, and you don't know that a man was shot in the head, and they said their reason, it's like, what's the motive?
00:53:13.000Well, you hear in the tape, we got a trumper here!
00:53:18.000As an American, if you watch CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, CNBC, you are less safe.
00:53:24.000If you don't know that people are going out and lighting fires and burning down police precincts and courthouses and doing so in the name of Antifa, how do we know?
00:53:33.000Because they say we're doing so in the name of Antifa.
00:54:35.000All the video being played is being played in Donald Trump's America.
00:54:39.000It's being played in Democrat cities by people who have said they... I mean, could it be any more clear?
00:54:44.000Were they just... This is Donald Trump's America.
00:54:46.000They just showed the mayor, Ted Wheeler of Portland, not Flex Wheeler, saying, we don't want him here because we think that he is diametrically opposed to our policy here in Portland, which I believe you can see the spoils.
00:54:59.000Well, and they're killing people who support Trump.
00:55:04.000So it's not Trump's fault that people are killing people that are supporters?
00:55:06.000Well, they want you to think it's actually the supporters of Trump are the police who are killing all people because of melanin.
00:55:11.000Well, and by the way, the media in that report, they said basically everything was fine.
