On the final episode of 2018, The Rebel's Ezra LeVant and David Menzies take a look back on the year and talk about their favourite moments of the year, including the mass shooting on the Danforth in Toronto, and the new year.
00:01:33.080This first one I'd like to ask you about is, I want you to set it up for us.
00:01:38.920It was a terrible, terrible event, a mass shooting by a Muslim extremist in the Toronto Danforth.
00:01:47.980And I say those things not based on speculation, but rather on what the police filed with the judge for their information to obtain a search warrant.
00:01:56.480And although the rest of the mainstream media says, oh, it's mental illness.
00:02:26.280I mean, Danforth, for those people outside Toronto that aren't familiar with it, it's a beautiful street full of restaurants and pubs and boutiques, bookshops.
00:04:17.660They wanted to go so badly and she was forcing them to stay to watch her fight.
00:04:21.700You know, I got this vibe, Ezra, that, you know, the poor little kids, here we are on Danforth and maybe a few weeks ago, she walked into a butcher shop and was screaming at the butcher for, you know, not having enough vegan alternatives.
00:04:34.800And the kids, you could see that resigned look in their face.
00:04:37.480Oh, no, mom's gone off her rocker again.
00:04:40.460And, you know, what you can't really see what's happening off camera is that it's a deluge of rain.
00:04:46.620And I was soaked to the bone, but I ain't leaving.
00:04:56.240We're going to show it in about 30 seconds.
00:04:58.220But what stood out to me, David, and I've told you this before, and I'll say it to the world, your self-control and your good humor in the face of this kook is a form of discipline I wish I had over myself.
00:05:14.640Because I would not have been able to keep a civil tongue in my mouth.
00:10:17.020I'm not saying that woman believes in murder or, but I'm saying she would rather defend everything than have you be able to say it was an ISIS.
00:10:24.260But indirectly, isn't she saying that?
00:10:26.360By saying I don't care about ISIS, think of what ISIS stands for.
00:10:30.040Every principle that she believes in, in terms of being a far left progressive, is what ISIS hates.
00:10:36.940Oh, she would be, she would be thrown in a burqa, first of all, for showing that much skin.
00:11:15.440You know, I think Alberta would vote Republican and maybe Saskatchewan, and the rest of Canada would vote for Democrats.
00:11:21.460And Toronto has always been an honorary American city for Democrats doing fundraisers.
00:11:27.120And so it was, the Bill and Hillary Clinton came to Toronto expecting to sell out a huge arena at huge ticket prices as part of their annual fundraising milk run.
00:11:41.480But it was actually, I mean, I'll let you introduce this clip and then you can throw to it.
00:11:52.460We did the streeters with the attendees because we thought what was really relevant, especially with the Clintons coming to town and Bill's part of that entourage, is we are now in the Me Too movement era.
00:12:03.340So they have not apologized to Monica Lewinsky.
00:12:08.500And it wasn't just a matter of sexual harassment.
00:12:10.360It was also the position of power he was in.
00:14:19.320I think it's more my view is just watching what's going on in the United States, that there's almost a fear of the white male losing their power.
00:14:26.420You know, I look at how they approach Obama.
00:14:28.700I look at how they've approached a woman going into the presidency, and it's almost like the white male's afraid.
00:14:34.340That's just really weird, the white male's afraid.
00:14:39.920But, you know, it's amazing the length that liberals will go to to excuse rapey behavior.
00:14:46.720Like, Monica Lewinsky was a sexual predator, although you could say it was consensual, although, as you pointed out, there was an enormous power imbalance.
00:14:58.860But Bill Clinton has also been very credibly accused of rape by Juanita Broderick, for example.
00:15:05.180Kathleen Wiley, of course, he was disbarred and paid a huge fine and settlement to other women, including one woman in Arkansas.
00:15:16.060And so his consensual affair with a minor, or not a minor, with an intern, is the least of it.
00:15:25.320But just like Teddy Kennedy, just like Harvey Weinstein, the great feminist Hollywood filmmaker, just like Gian Gomeschi, the women's studies CBC-er, the liberals will always make excuseful, even for Justin Trudeau, who groped, sexually groped, a young woman named Rose Knight, in Creston, B.C. in August of 2000.
00:16:06.080And, you know, what I can't stomach, you know, I did go to a scalper to buy tickets, not because the event was sold out.
00:16:12.320In fact, according to OneSource, they only sold 16.6% capacity of Scotiabank Arena, where the Leafs play.
00:16:18.860But just because on a clear conscience, I didn't want to add more revenue.
00:16:23.340And can you actually call a scalper a scalper if you're getting tickets at 60% off face value?
00:16:29.180But I go in there, and one of the last questions of the moderator, who was embarrassing, Frank McKenna, the old liberal, was about, tell us again about Bill meets Hillary.
00:16:39.920And, you know, and it was funny, some of the women in the audience, they were swooning at this.
00:16:44.360And I'm thinking, this isn't a chick flick, this is monster chiller horror theater.
00:16:48.980He's a serial adulterer, he fools around.
00:16:53.240And despite everything on the public record, Ezra, I don't know how this man gets a pass.
00:17:01.380I mean, you mentioned it yourself, that, you know, even being accused of rape, for goodness sakes, these women should be booing him.
00:17:07.440Yeah, I remember the name of that woman in Arkansas, Paula Jones, was a huge payout.
00:17:14.360But it's the same way the left talks about minorities.
00:18:53.380Yeah, he's just too much part of the Clinton, I'm not going to say mafia, because that implies that Frank himself is a crook, and I don't think he is.
00:21:20.040Whenever the cameras are around, whenever the caravan goes up against the wall in Tijuana like they did recently at the end of the line, suddenly women and children go to the front.
00:21:31.020I mean, the camera makes it look like it's all women and children, right?
00:21:34.640But 2,300, and I'm sorry, if the CBC was there on the ground, why didn't they go to the UN and go, ah, you know, this 2,300 figure not panning out, that's not what we're seeing.
00:21:46.700And it makes me wonder, do leftists, Ezra, have a trouble with mathematics?
00:21:51.220Because in the Trump election campaign, when he was having those rallies, oh, empty seats galore, and it's standing room only.
00:21:59.620I'm just getting sick and tired when you can see an image that refutes this kind of reporting, that they continue this narrative that when it's Trump supporters, hardly anybody around folks, and when it's a caravan of migrants, oh, think of the children, which are almost 50%.
00:22:16.480Well, that's the thing, whenever we go on the ground, just the basic facts prove that what the mainstream media tells us is quite often unreliable, sometimes accidentally, but often as a purposeful campaign-style lie.
00:23:00.440Yet, they are moving en masse, uninvited, and are planning to enter a country illegally.
00:23:08.320If that is not the textbook definition of an invasion, I don't know what is.
00:23:14.260And when President Trump mobilizes thousands of troops to secure the border, and perhaps even shut down the border,
00:23:22.160Well, what this is really about is saving American jobs, protecting American citizens, and even ensuring American sovereignty.
00:23:32.840Because as we've seen in so many other places around the globe, a country with no border controls is really not very much of a country at all.
00:23:43.880You know, looking at that footage again, that last image of this huge semi-trailer-type truck with about 20 young men about to jump in the back,
00:23:54.260First of all, that proves a lie that it's half women and children.
00:23:57.460Second of all, and you said that when you first, you had to find the caravan first.
00:24:02.180You landed, you had to search for it and catch up to it.
00:24:04.720You said you passed a truck on the highway, a big semi-trailer, that had stacks and stacks and stacks of portable toilets on it.
00:24:12.100And it wasn't until later that you put that together.
00:24:14.320This is part of the logistical convoy, because these people were not walking.
00:24:18.900They would walk a bit, but they were on trucks, they were on buses, they were on trailers.
00:24:23.920You can't move 5,000, 7,000 people at that speed on foot.
00:24:28.600What about the food? What about the drinks? What about the doctors? What about organizers? What about shelter?
00:24:34.740This was an enormous infrastructure undertaking, and the mainstream media never asked the question,
00:24:40.800who's paying for this? Who's organizing it?
00:24:42.960A hundred percent. And Ezra, you just said, portable toilets, they don't come cheap.
00:24:46.520You know, that's a major, you know, rental.
