On March 28th, a female-to-male transgender terrorist opened fire at a Christian school and church in Nashville, Tennessee, killing at least 5 people and wounding at least 2 more. The police responded to the scene and found a manifesto written by the shooter, Audrey Elizabeth Hale, 28.
00:05:01.680There have been some school shootings that have made the news, including one in Uvalde in the United States.
00:05:09.120That was atrocious because, of course, of the shooting in a school, but even more atrocious because the police arrived at the scene but refused to go in.
00:05:19.380Perhaps they were too scared or they froze in the moment, and a slaughter ensued while the cops were outside.
00:08:33.080They saved lives, but of course, lives were lost before they could.
00:08:37.260Bizarrely, or actually completely predictably, the media party focused on the transgender nature
00:08:45.820of the killer, and made that their emphasis, not that there was a transgender manifesto, but that how dare you call the murderer a she instead of a he.
00:08:58.020Here, take a look at CTV News, which wrote this tweet, female assailants in mass shootings in the U.S., like the one that occurred on Monday in Nashville, are extremely rare, according to the Violence Project, which maintains a national database of mass shootings dating to 1966.
00:09:18.280And then this second tweet, there was confusion later on Monday about the gender identity of the assailant in the Nashville shooting.
00:09:27.320Officials had used she and her to refer to the suspect, who, according to a social media post and a LinkedIn profile, appeared to identify as a man in recent months.
00:09:37.020And that's what New York Times thinks is important, and they're offended on behalf of the killer for misgendering her.
00:10:39.940All right, that is Police Chief John Drake of Nashville,
00:10:43.180who is briefing reporters on the deadly grade school shooting in Nashville at the Covenant School there this morning.
00:10:49.220The police confirming six dead, three children, one eight years old, two nine years old,
00:10:57.000and three adults, including Catherine Kuntz, who is the head of the Covenant School.
00:11:02.260The police chief also said that the shooter has been identified as 28-year-old female.
00:11:09.120Audrey Hale said she's a former student of the school and confirmed that Audrey Hale was a identified herself as a transgender person.
00:11:20.560The state of Tennessee earlier this month passed and the governor signed a bill that banned transgender medical care for minors,
00:11:28.640as well as a law that prohibited adult entertainment, including male and female impersonators after a series of drag show controversies in that state.
00:12:50.580The violence of certain individuals and institutions, we will, as per Chief Jim Hopper, punch some people in the face when they seek to destroy the meat and the disenfranchised and the marginalized.
00:13:03.860And we will do it all with soul, with heart, and with joy.
00:13:09.740They were normalizing, punching people in the face as long as they were Nazis.
00:13:15.780I don't think there's a lot of Nazis in America.
00:13:18.200I think for every person who's actually a real Nazi or a neo-Nazi, there's a thousand people who were simply called Nazis by the left as a way of denormalizing them.
00:17:59.120We know the phrase roid rage from people, men, who use extra testosterone in weightlifting.
00:18:06.240They get that roid rage because their aggression is magnified with the addition of artificial hormones.
00:18:13.740Well, imagine women who have never had that testosterone boost their whole life suddenly handling it.
00:18:19.980And I watched an interesting video by Dr. Jordan Peterson the other day.
00:18:23.460I looked for it again and I couldn't quite find it, but I'll keep looking.
00:18:27.340Where he talks about how two-year-olds are the most aggressive age of anyone.
00:18:32.620And you might laugh and say, how can that be true?
00:18:34.420Surely it's teenagers or young people in their 20s.
00:18:37.660But his argument was a two-year-old has no internal limits, hasn't learned to govern themselves yet.
00:18:45.140They would just smash everything in sight if they could.
00:18:48.780And what I take from that is it takes years to learn, especially for young boys, how to control themselves, control their superpower, I suppose, which is aggression and testosterone.
00:18:59.820Peterson talks about how playing with adults, including rough play, actually helps boys learn how to manage themselves and what the limits are.
00:19:09.780You can rough around, but you don't jab an eye or do things.
00:19:14.700And we don't realize that, that by the time a young man is 18 years old, he has 18 years of living with himself, living with his hormones and managing himself.
00:19:24.420But if you give a young woman, as the murderer in Nashville was, a dose of testosterone, enough to deliberately change their body to grow hair in places and to look like a man, you are giving them also a dose of rage and aggression that they have not had decades of experience managing.
00:19:47.140You're taking young people who may well have a mental illness, who are deeply anxious about the world, you're ideologically weaponizing them, and then you're pumping them full of drugs and sending them out into the world, perhaps giving them irrevocable surgery, which doesn't make them, in the end, feel any better and they can't undo it.
00:20:11.920Are you surprised that there's violence?
00:20:16.840I see this violence more all the time.
00:20:20.020Posey Parker is a nickname of a British activist for women's rights, someone who 10 years ago would just be called a feminist, someone who was against misogyny.
00:20:31.800Take a look at some of this footage out of New Zealand, where men, some who were transitioning, some who didn't even, who were phoning it in, some who just identify as women but don't even go to the effort, basically said, we're going to beat the living tar out of you.
00:20:50.260Take a look at Posey Parker in New Zealand.
00:20:52.640Take a look at Posey Parker in New Zealand.
00:22:09.900Where are the real feminists these days? Where are people standing up to protect women from men beating them up? Where is the sanity at all? In fact, I'm worried that the act of terrorism in Nashville is the beginning of a wave, a wave of young people who are angry at the world. And once they do terrible things to themselves, cutting off their genitalia or other body parts, cannot go back, cannot detransition.
00:22:39.900And their only way to, is to go forward. And between being pumped up on drugs and being told that transgenders are facing a genocide, I fear we're only seeing the beginning.
00:22:54.020Stopping a pay raise isn't rocket science, especially when Canadians overwhelmingly oppose it. The Feds stopped MP pay raises between 2010 and 2013 in response to the 08-09 recession.
00:23:03.020B.C. recently froze pay for MLAs. Nova Scotia Premier Tim Hewson recalled the legislature, froze MLA pay and then cut his own pay by $11,000.
00:23:12.020Here in Ottawa, backbench MPs currently collect a $189,500 salary. Trudeau collects a $379,000 salary from taxpayers.
00:23:21.020MPs don't deserve another raise. And MPs don't deserve another raise. And MPs don't need another raise from their constituents who are struggling to fill the fridge.
00:23:30.020MPs especially don't deserve a raise when they make life unaffordable with tax hikes.
00:23:37.020Hey, welcome back. Today was Budget Day in Canada. That's the day where Justin Trudeau announces what taxes he's going to take from your pocket and who the lucky winners of the Liberal Lottery are.
00:24:07.020For his spending spree. There's not a lot of pundits I trust on this issue because so many are compromised. They receive some of that Liberal Lotto money.
00:24:16.260I'm referring, of course, to every journalist in this country who is on the dole from Trudeau's media bailout. But one person I trust inherently is one of the great leaders of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, because as you know, they do not take a dime from government.
00:24:31.540So a man who was in the lockup today, that is, he spent hours pouring over the budget before it was formally released, is our friend Franco Teresano, who joins us live from Ottawa today.
00:24:43.280Franco, great to see you again. You were in the lockup. That means you had a chance to really meticulously go through this large document.
00:24:50.040Can you sum it up for us? How is the budget? Or rather, how bad is it?
00:24:55.040Oh, it's bad. You know, I was in the budget lockup from about 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Still didn't find any savings. Couldn't find any savings in there, Ezra.
00:25:04.560Even though Freeland is running around talking about fiscal prudence this, fiscal prudence that, you'll be quite surprised to know that there isn't any fiscal prudence.
00:25:14.240In fact, I'll say this on the record. This budget shows that the government doesn't care about fiscal prudence or helping taxpayers.
00:25:23.340OK, the government's been talking about finding savings. We'll get this. They spent 20 or they spent 18 billion dollars over their own budget in 2022.
00:25:31.520And now they want to spend an extra 20 billion dollars in 2023. So if they think that's savings, newsflash, you're doing it wrong.
00:25:40.040Yeah. You know, I'm pretty sure I know the answer before I ask it.
00:25:45.840Is the total amount of money extracted from Canadians in the form of taxes?
00:25:51.880Is it, as I think it is, at its record high? I mean, I can't imagine that taxes have fallen.
00:25:57.780Is the amount of money taken from Canadians a new record?
00:26:01.520Ezra. Spending was at an all time high before the pandemic.
00:26:06.060Before the pandemic, the government was spending more money in 2018 than the feds did during any single year during World War II.
00:26:13.740And now the government is continuing its spending spree.
00:26:16.420We're seeing deficits as far as the eye can see this year.
00:26:19.140In 2023, the deficit will be 40 billion dollars, about 10 billion dollars more than the last fiscal update.
00:26:26.380But, you know, I think that taxpayers have every reason to believe that this government will never balance the budget.
00:26:33.340Remember, Trudeau said the budget will balance itself. Well, still waiting for that.
00:26:38.240I don't have a watch on, but you get the point.
00:26:40.500Back in 2015, Trudeau said that they would run a few modest deficits, balance the books by 2019.
00:26:45.800They missed that by 20 billion dollars, even before the pandemic.
00:26:51.040And now the government isn't even pretending that it's going to balance the budget.
00:26:54.540Well, you know, he says budget, you just fix the economy from the heart out.
00:26:57.700I think that was another one of his famous quotes.
00:27:09.660We have to, you know, we have to budget ourselves more carefully, especially as Canada.
00:27:16.960I'm not sure if we're technically in a recession right now, but certainly inflation means that we have to all budget a little bit better.
00:27:23.600The fact that the government isn't budgeting, that is spending the greatest amount ever in history, tells me that they think that their choices are more important than individual Canadian families' choices.
00:27:36.640That they are a better recipient of money than the taxpayers themselves.
00:27:40.860If a government won't tighten its own belt, as we head into tough times, that's its way of saying you lowly workers should tighten your belt.
00:27:50.900Businesses, businesses, entrepreneurs, and the fact that they're giving themselves a raise on April 1st, while jacking up the carbon tax on April 1st.
00:28:01.760I don't know. I know April 1st is April Fool's Day, but joke's on us, isn't it?
00:28:07.420Yeah, it sure is. You pay higher taxes, they take higher pay.
00:28:11.460You know, I was about to cut you off there for a second and be like, hey, we don't all have to tighten our belts.
00:28:16.500If you're working within the golden gates of government, you don't have to tighten your belt, right?
00:28:20.420More than 300,000 federal government bureaucrats received at least one raise when their neighbors in the private sector lost a job, took a pay cut, and maybe even lost their business during the pandemic.
00:28:31.420Now they're all pushing for huge raises again.
00:28:34.700But remember, our members of parliament, April 1, taking their fourth pay raise since the beginning of the pandemic.
00:28:40.560An extra 5,100 smackers for a backbencher all the way up to an extra $10,200 for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
00:28:46.860So when Freeland says that she's going to be making life more affordable, make life more affordable for who?
00:28:53.140But the second thing, and to your main point, is look, this government couldn't balance the budget of a lemonade stand,
00:28:59.640now wants to run around and pretend to be investment banker with taxpayers' money.
00:29:04.860They have this Canada Growth Fund. It's a corporate slush fund.
00:29:08.460It's going to be $15 billion of taxpayers' money going into this thing.
00:29:12.700It just smells like corporate welfare to me, plain and simple, Ezra.
00:29:16.720Yeah. Well, they do all sorts of weird things.
00:29:18.780And one of the things they do that has always irked me is the amount of Canadian money that they shower on their foreign friends.
00:29:26.260And, you know, I remember in the early days when Trudeau was trying to get voted onto the United Nations Security Council,
00:29:33.280it was so clear it was just constant bribery.
00:29:37.060He would go on these junkets and just shower cash on every country, especially dictatorships,
00:29:43.320because really it was one country, one vote in the General Assembly.
00:29:47.040Well, Canada lost that vote and he's still at it.
00:29:50.140I mean, in the past it was the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank,
00:29:54.180basically Canadian taxpayers who were supposed to build airports and pipelines in China.
00:30:00.160A day doesn't go by where I don't see him announcing another grant to Haiti or Ukraine.
00:30:07.560And whether or not you support those countries emotionally,
00:30:10.880I'm not sure if it makes sense for us just to wring out maximum dough from Canada and spend it in other places.
00:30:17.340How's the foreign aid looking? Did you look at that line item?
00:30:20.680You know, I didn't see that, but let's not forget who they're also showering money on themselves.
00:32:19.620He didn't need to be Sherlock Holmes to figure that one out.
00:32:22.300But let's not forget, he released and he finally told taxpayer the truth as President Biden was coming to town because he wanted to bury the story.
00:32:31.820He knew the information was going to get out because the Canadian Taxpayers Federation launched a legal challenge to force the government to come clean.
00:32:39.600They knew that their legal arguments were bogus.
00:32:42.600They knew that they were going to lose in court.
00:32:44.420So Trudeau finally tells the truth to taxpayers.
00:32:47.600And he tries to bury the story the evening that President Biden comes to town because he hopes that there's too much going on in the news.
00:32:56.440You know, it reminds me, I don't know, you were probably too young to remember this, but on 9-11, one of the darkest days in the modern era, there was some bureaucrat, I think, in the UK, who said,
00:33:07.700if you have anything embarrassing to get out, get it out today, as in it would be buried in the news.
00:33:15.960So absolutely, Trudeau chose a Friday afternoon to leak that or to make public the information you referred to in the correct anticipation that it would be ignored.
00:33:29.120Hey, there's one more thing I saw today, and we're talking about Trudeau a lot, which is appropriate given that he's the PM and he sets the tone.
00:33:36.320But I couldn't help notice today when Jagmeet Singh made his remarks on the budget that he was wearing a Rolex watch.
00:33:43.920Now, I want to tell you, I'm not against prosperity.
00:33:55.000I'm not a watch guy, not a jewelry guy.
00:33:57.880But there's something tone deaf, I think, about the workers party, the labor union party, the party of the working class, who's propping up Trudeau, by the way, wearing, I don't know, maybe I'm picking on him.
00:34:17.900I just think it just feels like everything about Jagmeet Singh is fake and contrived.
00:34:23.980And I think he has absolutely been a trained puppy dog supporting Trudeau.
00:34:30.900And I can't actually point out how he's actually helped working class Canadians who are paying more taxes than ever.
00:34:36.820But at least, hey, at least Jagmeet Singh's got his Rolex on.
00:34:39.760Let me go back to all parties for a second because I want to kind of extend it across all party aisles.
00:34:45.360Now, the pay raises is more than just symbolism because when you have a political class that has become financially divorced from the people that they're supposed to represent, you get policies like you get today where they spend like crazy, print money like crazy, tax like crazy.
00:35:05.120Well, they're not really feeling the total cost of their bad spending and taxing decisions because they continue to give themselves pay raise after pay raise after pay raise.
00:35:22.380You know, Franco, I really appreciate you mentioning that because it's true that pay raise we've described doesn't just go to liberals and New Democrats and and the bloc.
00:35:34.740It goes to the Conservative Party of Canada.
00:35:36.520And as far as I know, there is no admonition.
00:35:40.660There's no rule that that the leader of the party has imposed on his caucus not to take it.
00:35:46.100And I remember a few years ago when we called around and said, are you taking it?
00:35:49.820Some of them said, oh, I'm going to donate it to charity.
00:35:53.320Of course, we never saw any proof of that.
00:38:12.640Well, it's good to be back in the studio.
00:38:14.460I was actually in the United States yesterday.
00:38:17.000I managed to get a legal exemption to the requirement to be vaccinated, which is quite something that this late, it's almost April 2023 in the United States, actually has a no-fly list of sorts.
00:38:30.400You are banned from entering the United States if you're not a citizen, if you're unjabbed.
00:38:47.000And it kept me out of the United States for the longest time.
00:38:49.700But I actually managed to get an exemption and I was allowed into that country.
00:38:53.380When I was down there, I appeared on Tim Pool's broadcast, which was an enormous show.
00:38:58.940In fact, we talked about some of these issues last night and I appreciated the opportunity to work with a great internet personality that he was.
00:39:08.720Hopefully, here at Rebel News, we can pick up some tips from a pro.
00:39:12.120Anyways, I really am troubled by this transgender extremism.
00:39:15.140I think we are damaging young people of both sexes by allowing them and encouraging them and giving them medical interventions to turn boys into girls and girls into boys.
00:39:31.960It's physically damaging and it's psychologically damaging.
00:39:36.740I think it's what we could really call a mind virus.
00:39:41.580I think that some young people, some teenagers have some sexual confusion.
00:39:46.540I think everyone does for some period of time.
00:39:48.960And frankly, some of these people might be gay.
00:39:50.680But to instead carve them up and weaponize them and pump them full of drugs and to try and actually change their sex is atrocious.
00:39:59.840And I think one day we'll look back and see it as an actual crime.
00:40:03.140We talked the other day with Barbara Kay about the atrocious decision to kill people instead of help them when they are sick or old or just depressed.
00:40:14.440And I think this is part of that same culture of death to assist in the self-destruction of young people instead of to help them.
00:40:24.520I think it's something that we'll look back on in 25 years and realize it was an absolute disaster.
