Join us as we discuss the Rapture, the refugee crisis, and whether or not Cory Booker is straight. Plus, a special guest appearance from Nick D'Paolo and Gerald Nadler. Guests: Peter Davenport, host of the podcast The Rapture; Nick DiPaolo, writer and comedian; and Landau Dave, editor in chief of The Weekly Standard.
00:03:58.000And we'll be talking about the refugee crisis, which, you know, is not really a crisis, and a lot of people are accusing the United States of being racist and only caring about Ukrainian refugees.
00:04:08.000Let me just give you the short end of it, okay?
00:10:49.000Because we have the Change My Mind coming up Monday, and one guy was even saying, you know, transgender people being discriminated against by all, and I even said, like, doctors.
00:11:27.000The point is, something about the moon and the tides, gravitational pull, I don't know, but Lizzo just caused, she fast-forwarded a hundred years of climate change.
00:11:52.000Well, more important than that, Cory Booker had his turn to grill the Supreme Court nominee.
00:11:56.000So we talked yesterday about how this Supreme Court nominee, you know, has made it her raison d'être to lessen sentences for child pornographers.
00:15:10.000He robbed that city of millions and millions and millions of dollars in funding for education, just completely wasted it on corporate people coming in and advising from New York, ransacked the city, and then's like, I think I'll run for Congress.
00:15:59.000When I first came to this place, I was the fourth black person ever popularly elected to the United States Senate, and I still remember... The fourth?
00:16:06.000A lot of mixed people, white folks, black folks work here, but at night, when people are in line to come in to clean this place... It's their fort.
00:16:15.000The percentage of minorities shift a lot, and so I'm walking here, first week I'm here, and somebody who's been here for decades doing the Urgent work of the Senate, but it's the unglamorous work that goes on no matter who's in offices.
00:16:26.000The guy comes up to me, all he wants to say I can tell is, I'm so happy you're here, but he comes up and he can't get the words out.
00:16:32.000And this man, my elder, starts crying.
00:23:32.000And that was of course before the Singapore summit with Trump, and the missile went higher, longer than the 2017, and that one was called Hwasong, which I know I had to look that up to make sure I had it right, I thought it was a phone company.
00:23:45.000And that showed that it could hit the United States.
00:24:00.000Well, hopefully we can stop it through the missile defense system that everyone mocked that Ronald Reagan helped spearhead, which ended up becoming the actual basis for all of Israel's defense, their Iron Dome.
00:26:39.000The only way I would call Saudi Arabia is if I had like Donald Duck and Chippendale, where when I call, but I push a button, they pick up the phone and the dynamite explodes on the other end of the receiver, but it somehow goes through.
00:26:49.000We have the first president who shit his pants at the Vatican.
00:29:25.000For a moment here, we have an audio clip from a recent show where Fauci said that he might, and oh my god, I really hope this is true, but of course I don't think so because I wish I loved anything as much as Fauci just loves being in front of the camera and or microphone.
00:29:39.000But he did say he might consider a career change.
00:29:42.000Is retirement or stepping back into a consultant role any like that?
00:33:46.000And, uh, number two, he said, you know, things he would most like to do next, uh, finally, uh, finally get around to creating his Laboratory Institute for Engineering More Severe Forms of AIDS.
00:35:13.000And guys, you can listen to that, too.
00:35:15.000I think it's on Spotify, it's on Pinder, it's on all those places where people can... And the cop that's on the cover holding the police tape, that was an actual Minneapolis cop who was shot.
00:40:56.000They're trying to say that, well, actually, the only reason that people now care about these women and children, the refugees, In other words, if you have empathy, if you have a heart, they want you to feel guilty in this case.
00:41:12.000A lot of people on TV didn't expect a war like this to happen in, let's say, certain neighborhoods.
00:41:21.000Now people are going to be like, oh, to see this in Europe, to see this.
00:41:26.000Like, I'll tell you now, I don't know about you, but I was shocked to see how many reporters around the world, by the way, seem to think that it's more of a tragedy when white people have to flee their countries.
00:41:38.000The world is paying attention because this is happening in Europe.
00:41:41.000If this was happening anywhere else, would we see the same outpouring of support and compassion?
00:41:46.000Well, we don't need to ask ourselves if the international response would be the same if Russia unleashed their horror on a country that wasn't white and largely Christian.
00:41:54.000Don't you have the Ilhan Omar clip, too?
00:43:05.000It's incorrect by the numbers, and it's incorrect in sentiment.
00:43:09.000Let me just give you the numbers pretty quickly, okay?
00:43:12.0002016, by 2016, Europe took in 5.2 million refugees from Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan, okay?
00:43:17.000As of December 2021, America, the United States of America, took in 65,000 Afghan refugees.
00:43:23.000And the United States and overseas bases.
00:43:25.000I need to make sure that I say that, otherwise people will fact check me on that, you know.
00:43:28.000And Biden raised the refugee cap to $125,000 in light of the Afghanistan crisis, largely created by him.
00:43:35.000Those are, you know, white Christian places.
00:43:37.000Yeah, well, less than 1% were Christian under Obama, despite the fact that these refugees leaving from places like Syria, Iraq, Christians were burned in cages.
00:43:46.000You're kind of surprised, like, well, why is it less than 1% of you coming here are the people who are being burned in cages, but you're part of the demographic that burns them in cages?
00:43:53.000They're looking for a new place to do burnings.
00:44:20.000You're supposed to go to the nearest neighboring country if you're fleeing persecution to be safe.
00:44:24.000Now that doesn't mean that if you're just coming from South America, from a country that is not as good as the United States of America, you get to come here in a Dodge Caravan and claim refugee status.
00:46:38.000I didn't even know that Americans were more sympathetic to Ukrainian refugees until the media said that that was the case and it's because we're racist.
00:46:44.000Honestly, I know that most Americans are pretty sympathetic to refugees across the board, whether they believe that we should resettle them or not.
00:47:18.000But maybe the reason that Americans might feel more sympathetic is because these are, I don't know, women and children.
00:47:25.000These are women and children leaving Ukraine because, contrary to what happened in the Middle East, and by the way, there have been refugees from the Middle East...
00:47:47.000And according to Pew Research, less than 1% of the Syrian refugees were Christian under Obama.
00:47:52.000According to Pew Research, all references are available at ladderwithcrowder.com, despite, again, Christians being the ones who were primarily persecuted in those countries.
00:47:59.000Now in Ukraine, sorry, not the Ukraine, I get it.
00:48:02.000In Ukraine, refugees are women and children since Zelensky banned men aged 18 to 60 from leaving the country.
00:48:09.000Which, by the way, is also a sign that you have a really good country.
00:48:12.000Yeah, fantastic country if you're willing to run out.
00:48:14.000But listen... Build walls to keep them in.
00:48:21.000No, but they understand Russia's just going to do what he did to Grozny.
00:48:25.000He's just going to bomb the hell out of it until it is absolutely the worst destroyed city on the planet, and then he's going to move to the next city.
00:50:00.000Here's Ilan Omar talking about something other than relations with her biological brother.
00:50:04.000As we talk about this crisis in Ukraine, we have to make sure that there is a reckoning.
00:50:13.000I hope this is a learning moment for all of us because obviously there's a difference in the way they talk about Ukrainian refugees who are white and the way black and brown and Muslim refugees from elsewhere are talked about.
00:50:30.000Yeah, how did you get here and become a representative?
00:51:08.000And then they show the dog that will be killed or having to roam the streets in her homeland.
00:51:13.000You need to train that dog to go kill the invaders.
00:51:15.000It just sucks that that's the narrative, though, when it's seven people and you have all these different people working together to push this on everyone.
00:51:43.000By the way, if you're pro taking in tons of refugees and spending other people's money and putting them in other communities and not your, take one first.
00:52:45.000If there are a few people out there who, you know, the few remaining, the four remaining actual white supremacists, you know, if you guys think we should only have white refugees, then let people know who to not like in the comment section.
00:52:58.000Just let your freak flag fly, but Nick DePauw is going to be in Fort Worth on Saturday, Dallas on Friday, Hyenas, we're going to go to chat, and of course the huge Change My Mind coming Monday and Tuesday.
