00:00:00.000 As Joe Biden calls Republicans racist and flails aimlessly, pundits begin speculating about a Hillary Clinton 2024 run.
00:00:07.000 Plus, the Federal Reserve Chairman announces the end of stimulus and inflation explodes.
00:00:12.000 I'm Ben Shapiro.
00:00:12.000 This is the Ben Shapiro Show.
00:00:19.000 Today's show is sponsored by ExpressVPN.

00:00:23.000 Anonymize your web browsing at expressvpn.com.
00:00:26.000 Slash, Ben, we'll get to all the news in just one moment.
00:00:28.000 First, did you ever read that fine print that appears every time you start browsing in incognito mode?
00:00:32.000 So you think incognito mode means that you are, you know, incognito.
00:00:35.000 Wrong you are!
00:00:37.000 That little notice says that your activity might still be visible to your employer, your school, or your ISP.
00:00:42.000 Is that even incognito?
00:00:43.000 To really stop people from seeing the sites you visit, you need to do what I do and use ExpressVPN.
00:00:47.000 Think about all the times you've used Wi-Fi at a coffee shop or a hotel, even at your parents' house, without ExpressVPN.
00:00:53.000 Every site you visit could be logged by the admin of that network, and that's true even when you're in incognito mode.
00:00:58.000 Do you really want a bunch of outsiders looking at what you do on the internet?
00:01:01.000 What's more, Your home internet provider can also see and record your browsing data and then sell that to advertisers.
00:01:06.000 ExpressVPN stops all that.
00:01:07.000 It's an app that encrypts all your network data, reroutes it through a network of secure servers, so your private online activity stays just that private.

00:01:39.000 Alrighty, so the big news of the day is that Joe Biden went down to Georgia.
00:01:45.000 looking for a soul to steal.
00:01:47.000 Well, I'm sorry, wrong reference.
00:01:49.000 In any case, he went down to Georgia in an attempt to drive up his poll numbers, and it is a giant failure.
00:01:54.000 The reason that he went down to Georgia looking to drive up his poll numbers is because Democrats have decided that the entire model for elections from now on is going to be driving out the black vote by shouting at black people that if they don't vote for Democrats, Republicans are going to put them back in chains.
00:02:08.000 Now, this shouldn't be a shock because Joe Biden literally said that in 2012 about Mitt Romney.
00:02:12.000 Mitt Romney is the single most milquetoast human being ever to have walked the earth.
00:02:16.000 Mitt Romney is like the definite, he's like the oatmeal of human beings.
00:02:20.000 Not like the sweetened and saltened oatmeal, like the actual just instant oatmeal that you get from Quaker oats and you pour it into a bowl with water, not even whole milk.
00:02:28.000 That's who Mitt Romney is, and everybody on the left treated him as anathema in 2012, up to and including Joe Biden, who suggested that he wanted to re-enslave black Americans.
00:02:36.000 So this has been their pitch since 2012, essentially, is that we can win elections only if we scare black people into voting for us in outsized numbers.
00:02:44.000 That was Joe Biden's pitch down in Georgia yesterday.
00:02:47.000 To understand why he is doing that, you have to understand that everything Joe Biden touches turns to crap.
00:02:52.000 Every single thing.
00:02:54.000 So he was handed the possibility for the greatest economic recovery In American history, because we had artificially put the economy to sleep in March of 2020, and then it had begun to wake up by December of 2020, because the vaccines were coming, because people recognized that they were going to be able to go back to work.
00:03:12.000 And Joe Biden took office with vaccines ready to go and a plan to distribute them ready to go.
00:03:19.000 That should have been the end of the pandemic.
00:03:20.000 Instead, it was not.
00:03:21.000 He decided that he was going to artificially dump trillions more dollars into the economy for no apparent reason, heating up inflation.
00:03:27.000 He decided that he was going to back the most insane lockdown advocates who are pushing for things like school closures.
00:03:34.000 He was going to back people who are pushing for endless rounds of boosters before he could get back to work and vax mandates at work and all the rest of this.
00:03:42.000 This is his fault.
00:03:44.000 And now, the Federal Reserve has announced that the economy no longer needs aggressive stimulus.
00:03:48.000 Well, there's only one problem with this.
00:03:49.000 If the Federal Reserve, through its loose monetary policy and Joe Biden's spending policy, created inflation, and meanwhile, unemployment has gone down to like 3.9%, when they ratchet up the inflation, unemployment is likely to go up, because usually those two things tend to work a little bit in tandem.
00:04:04.000 When Paul Volcker, then the Federal Reserve Chairman under Ronald Reagan, ratcheted up the interest rates in order to curb inflation, The unemployment rate went up pretty dramatically as well.
00:04:12.000 And so Joe Biden can expect that to hit anytime now.
00:04:16.000 OK, so yesterday, the Federal Reserve Chairman, Jerome Powell, he called high inflation a severe threat to a full economic recovery.
00:04:22.000 That's a bit of a sea change from five minutes ago when he was saying that it was a transitory problem.
00:04:27.000 He said Tuesday, the central bank was preparing to raise interest rates because the economy no longer needs emergency support.
00:04:33.000 In fact, he said, we are on an unsustainable debt path.
00:04:35.000 We have spent way too much money and we can't just inflate our way out of that.
00:04:40.000 Sustainable path.
00:04:41.000 Debt is not at an unsustainable level, but the path is unsustainable, meaning it's growing faster than the economy.
00:04:47.000 Meaningfully faster than the economy.
00:04:48.000 We have to address that over time.
00:04:50.000 We will address it over time.
00:04:52.000 And the better way to do it is soon, and to do it in good times.
00:04:55.000 Start when the economy is strong and the taxes are rolling in.
00:04:59.000 And that's, you know, since we don't do fiscal policy, but I will say that the sustainability of the debt is something we need to get back to.
00:05:09.000 Okay, it's hilarious that Jerome Powell, who was just appointed by Joe Biden to another term as Fed Chair, he is saying directly the opposite of what Joe Biden has said.
00:05:19.000 Joe Biden says that inflation can only be cured by Build Back Better, and that the economy can only be helped by Build Back Better, and that we don't have to worry about debts and deficits.
00:05:27.000 And here's Jerome Powell saying, oh yeah, we're going to ratchet down the inflation and also we can't spend more money.
00:05:31.000 While he offered a few specifics, Powell said that the central bank could begin to shrink its $8.8 trillion portfolio of bonds and other assets later this year.
00:05:39.000 By the way, the Fed should not own $8.8 trillion in bonds and other assets.
00:05:43.000 That's insane.
00:05:44.000 It demonstrates how much money they've pumped into the economy.
00:05:47.000 Compared with a prior experience shrinking the portfolio last decade, the process now could run sooner and faster, that much is clear, he said.
00:05:52.000 We're going to have to be both humble and a bit nimble.
00:05:55.000 The Fed cut short-term interest rates to near zero, started buying bonds to lower long-term rates in 2020 as the COVID pandemic hit the United States economy, triggering financial market volatility in a deep, short recession.
00:06:06.000 He said, it's time for us to begin to move away from the emergency pandemic settings to a more normal level.
00:06:09.000 It's a long road to normal from where we are.
00:06:12.000 And Joe Biden has to know that because there are going to be some pretty severe consequences to that, at least in the short term.
00:06:17.000 Now Powell is right.
00:06:17.000 This is stuff that we have to do.
00:06:18.000 We have to raise the interest rates and we should not have spent a huge majority of the money that we've spent over the past couple of years keeping people at home.
00:06:26.000 By the way, Joe Biden is now calling for trillions more in COVID spending.
00:06:29.000 Trillions more in COVID spending, which is insane.
00:06:32.000 There's a reason his approval ratings are in the low 40s, high 30s at this point.
00:06:35.000 Meanwhile, Joe Biden's Democratic Party is pushing Jerome Powell to use the inflationary power of the Federal Reserve to fight climate change.
00:06:43.000 That's how out of touch Joe Biden's Democratic Party is.
00:06:45.000 Here is Senator Elizabeth Warren with Jerome Powell yesterday.
00:06:49.000 The issue really is, can something from climate change arise to the level that would threaten the stability of the entire financial system?
00:06:57.000 So that sounds like more in the nature of of what you were reading, something of transition risk where some unexpected government policy change happens which could potentially create disruption.
00:07:15.000 Well the world is running out of time to deal with the climate crisis and the Fed has an important role to play here and I hope the Fed will step up.
00:07:25.000 They are so crazy.
00:07:27.000 They're so crazy.
00:07:29.000 So the Fed has created this inflationary spiral in tandem with the massive spending, bipartisan spending of 2020 and the massive spending binge that the Biden administration pushed in 2021.
00:07:40.000 And Elizabeth Warren is like, what if we use the Federal Reserve to fight climate change?
00:07:45.000 Okay, so again, all of this is to explain why Joe Biden is doing what he is doing politically.
00:07:49.000 We'll get to that in just one moment.
00:07:51.000 First, have you ever gone exclusive with somebody?
00:07:53.000 It's a pretty big deal.
00:07:54.000 I remember when I went exclusive with my wife very early on in our relationship, like a week in, and it was a big deal for me.
00:08:00.000 It was very exciting, almost as exciting As the fact that we at The Daily Wire are now exclusive with Good Ranchers, the 100% American meat company.
00:08:09.000 Once we laid eyes on the steaks from Good Ranchers, it was hunger at first sight.
00:08:13.000 They sell beef that is 100% born, raised, harvested here in the United States.
00:08:17.000 That is a big deal considering that 85% of the grass-fed beef sold in stores and online is imported from overseas.
00:08:23.000 With Good Ranchers, you help support local American farms and ranches while getting steakhouse quality cuts delivered straight to your door.
00:08:29.000 I've met the people who are in charge.
00:08:31.000 Of good ranchers, let me tell you, they are wonderful, great Americans.
00:08:34.000 They win on quality, price, and mission.
00:08:36.000 That's why we are excited to partner with them.
00:08:38.000 They take good care of us.
00:08:39.000 They'll take great care of you.
00:08:40.000 They are feeding the Daily Wire and feeding the United States.

00:09:03.000 Go check them out.
00:09:07.000 Already, the Biden administration has no actual plan.
00:09:10.000 And so their new plan is that they're going to be recommending better masks against Omicron.
00:09:14.000 Good luck with that, gang.
00:09:15.000 Seriously, good luck with N95ing your 12 year old.
00:09:20.000 Good luck with that.
00:09:21.000 According to the Washington Post, the Center for Disease Control is considering updating its mask guidance to recommend that people opt for the highly protective N95 or KN95 masks worn by healthcare personnel if they can do so consistently.
00:09:33.000 While the highly transmissible Omicron variants bring record levels of infections and hospitalizations, experts have repeatedly urged the Biden administration to recommend the better quality masks rather than cloth coverings to protect against an airborne virus and to underscore the importance of masking.
00:09:46.000 The official said, the agency is currently actively looking to update its recommendations for KN95 and N95 masks in light of Omicron.
00:09:54.000 We know these masks provide better filtration.
00:09:58.000 So, um, the answer is going to be from the American people, that's a big no.
00:10:02.000 I'm not putting my kid in an N95 mask.
00:10:05.000 That's insane.
00:10:06.000 You people are crazy.
00:10:08.000 You're crazy.
00:10:09.000 Everybody is gonna get Omicron because you can't live in a KN95 mask the rest of your life.
00:10:13.000 Everybody's gonna get this.
00:10:15.000 Everybody's gonna be okay if you are vaccinated or if you have natural immunity, and if you have neither natural immunity nor vaccination, then you are in a certain amount of danger that is far lower than the amount of danger that Delta provided.
00:10:27.000 But again, the Biden administration has put itself in a box of its own making.
00:10:30.000 And this is why you see videos of kids sitting outside in Virginia in 24 degree weather, 24 degree weather, eating lunch outside on the ground in 24 degree weather to prevent transmission of a virus that will kill zero of these children.
00:10:30.000 It can't get out of this.
00:10:43.000 A story to all these kids sitting outside in hats and coats and gloves.
00:10:53.000 It is 24 degrees outside.
00:10:55.000 24 degrees.
00:10:58.000 This is absolutely unacceptable.
00:11:01.000 Unacceptable.
00:11:03.000 It's unbelievable.
00:11:04.000 It's unbelievable.
00:11:05.000 Two of those kids are going to die of hypothermia and be out there shivering.
00:11:09.000 Please, ma'am, may I go inside?
00:11:11.000 No, you might get Omicron!
00:11:14.000 But I'm freezing, my little hands, oh, they're turning blue.
00:11:17.000 Shut up!
00:11:18.000 You might give Omicron to your classmate.
00:11:21.000 But my classmate would be fine.
00:11:22.000 Shut up!
00:11:24.000 Oh, my leg, oh, it's so cold.
00:11:28.000 Something out of Charles Dickens at this point.
00:11:30.000 This is so absurd.
00:11:31.000 It's so absurd.
00:11:32.000 But the good news is, according to Joe Biden, we're on the right track.
00:11:34.000 He's saying that.
00:11:36.000 By the way, I do love it that every time Joe Biden comes within five feet of another human being, he pulls down his mask.
00:11:42.000 I'm not sure he understands how this concept works.
00:11:45.000 So he's got the mask.
00:11:46.000 It's around his chin.
00:11:47.000 He's two feet away from another human.
00:11:50.000 Yeah, man.
00:11:51.000 This guy's with us.
00:11:53.000 I am concerned about the pandemic just because it's worldwide, it's not slowing up very much.
00:12:00.000 And thank God, what we've been able to do, as I've been able to generate significant federal help in terms of folks both coming into the hospitals and administering all the help that these states need.
00:12:19.000 That's what we're doing now, but I'm confident we're on the right track.
00:12:24.000 Are you confident we're on the right track?
00:12:25.000 And then he just walks away.
00:12:26.000 No questions, catch you later.
00:12:27.000 By the way, he did take the mask all the way off.
00:12:29.000 Presumably he put it back on on the way to the helicopter in the middle of a field because he is not a bright human.
00:12:35.000 It is incredible to me that people somehow consider Joe Biden bright.
00:12:39.000 It's beyond reason.
00:12:40.000 I don't understand it.
00:12:41.000 He has never been the brightest egg in the Senate.
00:12:43.000 No one ever thought that he was.
00:12:45.000 It was Barack Obama who once suggested that Joe Biden never underestimate Joe's ability to F things up.
00:12:51.000 That is who Joe Biden is.
00:12:53.000 And then we elected that guy president.
00:12:55.000 And the American people decided, we need this dotard to be president of the United States.
00:12:59.000 Man, we deserve whatever we get from these people.
00:13:02.000 It is just incredible.
00:13:04.000 Meanwhile, Joe Biden continues to rely on Anthony Fauci, the least trusted public servant in America.
00:13:09.000 Anthony Fauci to whom votive candles were lit despite the fact that he has screwed up every element of this pandemic response from his perch at the NIAID.
00:13:18.000 So, in an interview yesterday, he suggested that he is not a political person.
00:13:21.000 Again, I just have a question.
00:13:23.000 Isn't that a picture of Anthony Fauci behind Anthony Fauci?
00:13:27.000 Is that correct?
00:13:29.000 Does he have a room in his house where there's not a picture of Anthony Fauci behind Anthony Fauci?
00:13:36.000 It's wild, man.
00:13:37.000 It's so wild.
00:13:38.000 Everything is an Iannucci parody movie at this point.
00:13:38.000 Everything is a parody.
00:13:43.000 We can only have public servants who serve the public so much that they have pictures of themselves behind them while they speak in camera about themselves.
00:13:50.000 So much public service going on.
00:13:51.000 He says he's not a political person, does Anthony Fauci.
00:13:55.000 I wish we could reset this and say, you have your political differences.
00:13:59.000 I'm not a political person.
00:14:01.000 You know that.
00:14:01.000 You've known me for decades.
00:14:03.000 Zero political interest.
00:14:05.000 But maybe we could put the political stuff aside and say, if we want to fight politically, let's end this outbreak first.
00:14:13.000 Get back to normal life and then go back to our political ideologies.
00:14:19.000 Uh-huh.
00:14:20.000 Also, he then spent the rest of the day in front of the Senate just doing lapdog service on behalf of the Biden administration.
00:14:29.000 So he says he thinks Biden's done a very good job on COVID.
00:14:31.000 Yeah, I'm sure.
00:14:33.000 I'm sure.
00:14:34.000 Does that very good job involve more deaths in 2021 than it did in 2020 with the vaccines available?
00:14:41.000 What kind of good job would we be discussing here, Dr. Fauci?
00:14:43.000 Here we go.
00:14:45.000 I think, given the circumstances that we're in right now, I believe he's done a very good job.
00:14:50.000 I really do.
00:14:51.000 This is an extraordinary virus, the likes of which we have not seen even close to in well over 100 years.
00:14:59.000 It is a very wily virus.
00:15:01.000 It has fooled everybody all the time, from the time it first came in, to Delta, to now Omicron.
00:15:07.000 Very unpredictable, and we're doing the best we possibly can.
00:15:12.000 In no way has this been unpredictable.
00:15:14.000 Seriously, in no way has this been unpredictable.
00:15:16.000 Every step of the way, it's gotten more transmissible and less deadly.
00:15:20.000 That is the predictable pathway for viruses throughout history.
00:15:24.000 But that's the guy that Joe Biden has chosen to trust, saying that things are going extremely well.
00:15:29.000 By the way, Dr. Fauci then got in another fight with Rand Paul.
00:15:31.000 Rand Paul, of course, was correct.
00:15:32.000 Dr. Fauci was wrong.
00:15:33.000 And so Dr. Fauci decided to blame Rand Paul for his own problems.
00:15:37.000 Here is a bit of that.
00:15:39.000 He's doing this for political reasons.
00:15:42.000 What you need to do is... He said in front of this committee... You think your takedown of three prominent epidemiologists was not political?
00:15:49.000 You don't want me to finish because you know what I'm going to say.
00:15:52.000 That was the question.
00:15:53.000 Were you political in taking down these three prominent epidemiologists?
00:15:58.000 What happens when he gets out and accuses me of things that are completely untrue is that all of a sudden that kindles the crazies out there and I have life, threats upon my life, harassments of my family and my children with obscene phone calls because people are lying about me.
00:16:23.000 No one is lying that Anthony Fauci and other members of the upper echelon of the health administration actively targeted the authors of the Great Barrington Declaration and tried to call them nuts for disagreeing on their policies with regard to the pandemic.
00:16:36.000 Anthony Fauci, great, great public servant.
00:16:38.000 Terrific public servant.
00:16:39.000 Okay, so here is the thing.
00:16:41.000 All of this Leads to a simple fact.
00:16:43.000 Joe Biden is failing.
00:16:45.000 He is flailing.
00:16:45.000 He's in serious trouble.
00:16:46.000 And his response is going to be, Republicans hate Black people.
00:16:50.000 As always, this is the go-to Democratic response.
00:16:52.000 We'll get to that in just one second.

00:17:57.000 OK, so all of this leads up to the simple fact that Joe Biden is in trouble.
00:18:02.000 And so he is going to go back to the well.
00:18:04.000 And that well for Democrats, as always, is everyone who opposes me is a vicious racist.
00:18:08.000 Now, this worked better for Barack Obama because he was the first black president.
00:18:11.000 Joe Biden is whiter than the backside of the sheet of paper I'm currently holding up.
00:18:15.000 Joe Biden is one of the whitest people in America.
00:18:17.000 He's an 80-year-old white man who is now, who by the way, served in the Senate with people like George Wallace and talked about how he had been praised by people like George Wallace in the 70s.
00:18:28.000 Not kidding.
00:18:29.000 So Joe Biden goes down to Georgia.
00:18:33.000 And he decides that he is going to rant and rave about how Republicans are trying to steal elections.
00:18:39.000 Now, I have to say, this is truly incredible.
00:18:41.000 It really is.
00:18:42.000 So we've been hearing since November of 2020 that it was the quote-unquote big lie, right?
00:18:47.000 The media have used the term big lie to apply to Donald Trump's contention that the 2020 election was stolen.
00:18:53.000 I don't believe that Donald Trump won the election Or that Joe Biden won the election on the basis of electoral fraud.
00:18:59.000 I think there are a lot of things in the election that were extremely corrupt.
00:19:02.000 I think that the rejiggering of election law in Pennsylvania, contrary to the Pennsylvania state constitution, was corrupt.
00:19:07.000 I think in any election with 155 million votes, you're going to get some voter fraud.
00:19:11.000 I think that the media lied.
00:19:12.000 I think the media prevaricated.
00:19:13.000 I think they covered up for Joe Biden's failures.
00:19:16.000 I think that they printed overt falsehoods about Donald Trump.
00:19:19.000 I think all of that can be true.
00:19:21.000 And I still think that the 2020 election was not, quote unquote, stolen in the way that Donald Trump means it was stolen.
00:19:27.000 The media, however, labeled that the big lie.
00:19:29.000 Now, the reason they use the term big lie is it is amazing.
00:19:32.000 The same media that will say you can never make a Holocaust comparison, a contention with which I generally agree, they're consistently making Holocaust language comparisons.
00:19:41.000 When they say the big lie, what they mean is like Hitler's big lie.
00:19:45.000 They are implicitly comparing the two.
00:19:47.000 There's no question that's what they're doing.
00:19:48.000 In the same way that when they call you a climate change denier, they're essentially trying to hijack the language of Holocaust denial.
00:19:54.000 That is the goal.
00:19:55.000 The goal is to take some of the most charged language with regard to human communication and then to slide it into all of the American political domestic talk.
00:20:04.000 So Donald Trump was engaged in the big lie over November of 2020.
00:20:08.000 Well, I have a question.
00:20:09.000 If it was a big lie for Donald Trump to say that the election of 2020 was stolen through voter fraud, what would you say if I told you that the Democrats are now contending that every election for the rest of time is about to be stolen by Republicans?
00:20:23.000 That's what they're contending.
00:20:24.000 They're now contending that if the Republicans are not stopped, they will steal every election for the rest of time, which implicitly means that if Republicans win, Democrats are going to challenge the results of the election, saying that the election was stolen.
00:20:37.000 I know that we're supposed to pretend this is only a one-sided thing.
00:20:39.000 It is not a one-sided thing.
00:20:40.000 Stacey Abrams from Georgia contended that the election for governor a few years back was stolen from her, even though she lost by 50,000 votes.
00:20:48.000 That is not Donald Trump's 12,000 votes in Georgia.
00:20:51.000 That's four times the margin.
00:20:52.000 50,000 votes she lost by in Georgia, and she still contended that the election was stolen from her.
00:20:58.000 And this has become part and parcel of the Democratic playbook.
00:21:00.000 In 2020, I know that we're supposed to just erase the history prior to November of 2020 of the election, but you will recall that it was Democrats who were claiming pretty openly that if Donald Trump won, it was because he cheated.
00:21:11.000 In fact, post-2016, Democrats claimed for four years that Donald Trump won because he cheated.
00:21:16.000 So now, the new big lie, okay, if we're going to call it the big lie that Republicans lost the election of 2020 at the presidential level because of voter fraud, I'm going to say it's the biggest lie to say that every election for the rest of time will be stolen by Republicans unless Joe Biden gets to completely rewrite election law in the United States from the federal level.
00:21:33.000 That is the biggest lie.
00:21:34.000 You can't imagine a bigger lie.
00:21:36.000 What would the bigger lie be?
00:21:37.000 Really?
00:21:38.000 If I say that one election was stolen and that's untrue, and then you say all elections I lose are stolen, all of them, which one is the bigger lie?
00:21:45.000 And yet the media has no problem whatsoever just trotting out Joe Biden's propagandistic bullcrap.
00:21:50.000 It's unreal.
00:21:52.000 There's less evidence that voter suppression is a massive problem in the United States, far less evidence that voter suppression is a problem in the United States, than that there is some element of voter fraud in elections.
00:22:04.000 Voter fraud is a minor issue, as far as percentages of the total vote, and voter suppression is a non-issue, because it is a federal crime to suppress the vote, to stop people actively from voting.
00:22:16.000 You can't do that.
00:22:18.000 So what the hell are they talking about?
00:22:19.000 But this is the pitch, and the pitch really is to black Americans, That if you don't stop the Republicans, the Republicans are going to stop you from voting.
00:22:27.000 And we're going to go right back to Jim Crow.
00:22:28.000 Joe Biden, by the way, is not being subtle about this.
00:22:30.000 Joe Biden has been saying for a year at this point, the Republicans are pursuing a new Jim Crow in the South, which is patently insane.
00:22:37.000 There's currently a black Democratic senator from the state of Georgia.
00:22:41.000 Stacey Abrams is a real contender to be governor of Georgia after being a terrible politician for the past several years with regard to the lies that she has told.
00:22:51.000 Joe Biden He's constantly bragging about the election results and then it is wild.
00:22:58.000 I mean, at the same time, you have Republicans, many Republicans who are like, yeah, the election of 2020 was stolen.
00:23:03.000 Sure, I got elected to a seat in Congress in that same election, but the election was stolen.
00:23:07.000 Joe Biden does the exact same thing.
00:23:09.000 He's like, I won the election of 2020, but voter suppression is a real thing.
00:23:15.000 Barack Obama won the elections of 2008, 2012, but voter suppression is a real threat.
00:23:19.000 What are you talking about?
00:23:20.000 What are you talking about?
00:23:21.000 Again, the idea is everyone who opposes Joe Biden is a vicious racist.
00:23:25.000 Now, here's the thing.
00:23:26.000 Nobody actually believes this.
00:23:28.000 There's polling out from Morning Consult today.
00:23:31.000 And Morning Consult polling shows that Americans literally do not care about any of the issues Joe Biden is talking about.
00:23:36.000 He's not talking to anybody except his base.
00:23:39.000 And in fact, even members of his base are not willing to hear this because they understand that this is incredibly stupid.
00:23:44.000 So Stacey Abrams actually skipped Joe Biden's speech in Georgia last night.
00:23:48.000 She just skipped it.
00:23:49.000 She was like, nope!
00:23:52.000 An aide for Abrams told the New York Times she was unable to attend the event in Atlanta.
00:23:56.000 Despite her absence, Abrams expressed support for the event, welcoming Biden back to Georgia on Twitter.
00:24:00.000 Yeah, there's a reason she didn't show up, and maybe it has to do with the fact that Joe Biden is a 30% approval president in the state of Georgia, and any attachment to Joe Biden kills her in the state of Georgia.
00:24:10.000 Joe Biden had some words about this.
00:24:12.000 He says that it was a scheduling mix-up.
00:24:13.000 Yeah, Joe.
00:24:15.000 That's what, when she refuses to go on a second date with you, it's definitely the scheduling mix-up, not the fact that she doesn't want to go on a date with you, probably.
00:24:23.000 Here's Joe Biden.
00:24:26.000 I spoke with Stacey this morning.
00:24:28.000 We have a great relationship.
00:24:29.000 We got our scheduling mixed up.
00:24:31.000 I talked with her at lunch this morning.
00:24:33.000 We're all on the same page.
00:24:35.000 And everything's fine.
00:24:39.000 And yeah, by the way, the mask is down again, as always.
00:24:42.000 The minute that he gets in front of human beings within five feet, he takes the mask down because he is a doddering old fool.
00:24:46.000 OK, so then on to the event.
00:24:49.000 So the event itself is Morally egregious, I mean truly morally egregious.
00:24:55.000 Really disgusting.
00:24:56.000 If you're going to label people on the other side of the aisle actual black hating confederates, you might want some evidence other than Georgia got rid of some of the drop boxes that were temporarily set up for COVID times.
00:25:09.000 You might want to get rid, you might want to provide some evidence other than Georgia's election law, which passed a few months back and is apparently less strict than Delaware election law.
00:25:22.000 But, again, it's the biggest lie.
00:25:25.000 The biggest lie.
00:25:26.000 All elections will be stolen if you don't allow me to steal elections, is Joe Biden's pitch.
00:25:31.000 Okay, so, Vice President Kamala Harris, she let off.
00:25:34.000 He's just dragging her around at this point, trying to make Kamala Harris a thing.
00:25:37.000 You're never making FETCH a thing, man.
00:25:38.000 It is not happening.
00:25:39.000 FETCH will not be a thing.
00:25:41.000 And she's terrible.
00:25:42.000 She's just awful at this.
00:25:44.000 I don't know why he bothers trying to trot her out at this point.
00:25:46.000 As we will see, nobody else takes Kamala Harris seriously.
00:25:48.000 Like how not seriously is Kamala Harris being taken?
00:25:51.000 If Joe Biden were to keel over before the 2020 election, before the 2024 election, Democrats have somebody else in mind already.
00:25:58.000 Anyway, here is Kamala Harris making the absurdly stupid claim that GOP anti-voter laws are going to disenfranchise 55 million people, pulling this number directly out of her ass.
00:26:11.000 Across our nation, anti-voter laws could make it more difficult for as many as 55 million Americans to vote.
00:26:20.000 That is one out of six people in our country.
00:26:25.000 Um, I would like some evidence that 55 million people are not going to vote because Republicans say you have to show voter ID.
00:26:32.000 Like some evidence of that would be great.
00:26:34.000 Okay, then Joe Biden gets up there and again, he's making a pitch on an issue no one cares about.
00:26:37.000 No one cares about this.
00:26:39.000 No one.
00:26:40.000 The entire shtick here is, can I scare black people into voting for me despite the fact I'm a crappy president?
00:26:45.000 By the way, I will tell you that the new inflation stats are out.
00:26:49.000 Again, the reason he's doing this is because he is dead in the water come 2022 and he's got real problems come 2024 aside from his own health.
00:26:55.000 Which obviously is not good.
00:26:58.000 According to the brand new numbers from the U.S.
00:27:02.000 government, inflation climbed to 7% in December.
00:27:05.000 7% on an annualized basis.
00:27:08.000 That is the highest level since 1982.
00:27:11.000 December was the 8th month that inflation has been at 5% or higher.
00:27:15.000 That was driven by shelter, used cars, and food.
00:27:20.000 Energy actually fell slightly.
00:27:23.000 Amazing, amazing stuff.
00:27:24.000 So, Joe Biden, he's, again, can he scare enough black people into voting for him by shouting that his opponents are Jefferson Davis Confederates?
00:27:31.000 He starts by saying, we're calling on Congress to get this done.
00:27:34.000 Okay, here's the problem, dude.
00:27:36.000 Congress is controlled by your party.
00:27:38.000 You.
00:27:40.000 You have 50 votes in the Senate.
00:27:42.000 You have a majority in the House.
00:27:44.000 You are the President of the United States.
00:27:46.000 You can't get people to sign off on killing the filibuster.
00:27:49.000 For your ridiculously usurpatious voting law.
00:27:52.000 Because no one backs it.
00:27:54.000 Here's Joe Biden trying to run against a Congress he controls.
00:27:58.000 Today, we call on Congress to get done what history will judge.
00:28:04.000 Pass the Freedom to Vote Act.
00:28:08.000 As our old man shouts at clouds.
00:28:10.000 We call on Congress to pass the Freedom to Vote Act.
00:28:17.000 Okay, then he gets even better.
00:28:18.000 Then he suggests that anyone who doesn't back his proposal to kill the filibuster, which until five minutes ago, Democrats were in love with.
00:28:24.000 In fact, before the Democrats took the Senate, the Democrats used the filibuster about a couple hundred times a year against Republican legislation.
00:28:33.000 Here's Joe Biden.
00:28:34.000 Saying that anyone who disagrees with him on this bill is on the side of George Wallace.
00:28:39.000 Again, he served with George Wallace in the Senate, and he used to brag about their relationship.
00:28:43.000 Bull Connor and Jefferson Davis.
00:28:45.000 Jefferson Davis.
00:28:47.000 That's right.
00:28:47.000 If you don't back his proposal to federalize all election procedure, federalize ballot harvesting, Force the federal government to overlook every redistricting scheme in the United States.
00:28:58.000 If you don't support all of that, you are on the side of people who actively enslaved black people in the United States and then fought a war ending with the death of three quarters of a million Americans in order to preserve slavery.
00:29:08.000 You're on the side of those people if you don't back this old white man who actually remembers the Civil War.
00:29:12.000 It is unclear which side Joe Biden fought on at the time.
00:29:15.000 Here is Joe Biden.
00:29:17.000 I ask every elected official in America.
00:29:21.000 How do you want to be remembered?
00:29:24.000 At consequential moments in history, they present a choice.
00:29:29.000 Do you want to be on the side of Dr. King or George Wallace?
00:29:34.000 Do you want to be on the side of John Lewis or Bull Connor?
00:29:39.000 Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis?
00:29:44.000 This is the moment to decide.
00:29:48.000 This is the moment to decide.
00:29:49.000 I feel like the decision as to whether to be on the side of George Wallace or Martin Luther King was like 1968 and we came down on the side as a country of Martin Luther King.
00:30:01.000 And when it came to John Lewis versus Bull Connor, I feel like that decision was made also In that period, and we came down on the side of John Lewis.
00:30:10.000 And I feel like the decision about Abraham Lincoln versus Jefferson Davis, that decision came down circa about 1865.
00:30:16.000 So I'm not sure what he's talking about.
00:30:18.000 He's not sure what he's talking about.
00:30:19.000 All he knows is if he can yell at black people, maybe those black people will go vote for an old white man and his friends.
00:30:25.000 It's truly incredible.
00:30:26.000 I don't know what he thinks his electoral strategy here is, broadly speaking, except he just keeps doubling down on stupid.
00:30:31.000 They just keep doubling down on stupid.
00:30:32.000 It's incredible.
00:30:33.000 Joe Biden finishes up by saying Trump and the GOP want to disenfranchise anyone who votes against them.
00:30:38.000 So again, this is a huge lie.
00:30:41.000 This is a huge lie.
00:30:42.000 The media won't call it out, but it is, in fact, the biggest lie that if Republicans win in the future, it must be because they disenfranchise millions of people.
00:30:50.000 The goal of the former president's allies is to disenfranchise anyone who votes against them.
00:30:57.000 Simple as that.
00:31:00.000 The facts won't matter.
00:31:02.000 Your vote won't matter.
00:31:04.000 They'll just decide what they want and then do it.
00:31:10.000 Okay, so that guy is a giant fail of a human.
00:31:15.000 I mean, he's an immoral human being.
00:31:16.000 If your job is that you go out there and you suggest that your political opponents are vicious, brutal, pro-slavery racists because they oppose you, On your Voting Procedures Act in 2021, I don't know what to say about you other than you are acting deeply immorally.
00:31:32.000 And Joe Biden is an immoral, dirty, scummy politician.
00:31:35.000 He really, really is.
00:31:37.000 I know we're supposed to pretend that he's pure as the driven snow while his son is running around the world picking up bags of cash thanks to his last name and admitting it on national television.
00:31:44.000 I know we're supposed to pretend that this dullard is somehow an intelligent human being after riding Barack Obama's coattails to fame, being plucked from obscurity specifically because he was an older white gentleman.
00:31:56.000 I know we're supposed to pretend that this person whose sole legislative accomplishment, his entire career, was the 1994 crime bill, which he then ran directly away from in the last election cycle in order to pander to the woke base.
00:32:08.000 But he is a dirty, immoral, scummy politician, period.
00:32:12.000 And what he is doing right now is dirty, immoral, and scummy.
00:32:14.000 I know we're supposed to pretend that he didn't say about, again, I'm never going to get over this.
00:32:17.000 I will not get over the fact that he suggested that Mitt Romney wanted to re-enslave black people.
00:32:21.000 I'm never going to get over that fact.
00:32:23.000 That is like saying that Mother Teresa was very, very interested in promoting prostitution.
00:32:31.000 Like, what are you talking about?
00:32:33.000 What are you even saying right now?
00:32:36.000 Mitt Romney!
00:32:37.000 Who's even saying that about, like, Donald Trump?
00:32:39.000 He's saying, like, Mitt Romney!
00:32:41.000 This guy has no limits.
00:32:43.000 He's a congenital liar.
00:32:46.000 He's immoral.
00:32:47.000 And the media refused to call him out because there's lapdogs.
00:32:49.000 It's unreal.
00:32:51.000 But people are starting to see down the road and what they realize is that the doddering elderlies who currently run the Democratic Party...
00:32:59.000 They are in trouble.

00:33:27.000 Well, as you sink your harpoon into the whale and that whale drags you out to sea, you might be thinking to yourself, number one, this is a bad move.

00:35:13.000 you're listening to the largest, fastest growing conservative podcast and radio show in the nation.
00:35:17.000 So if you are a Democrat and you're looking at the future of the Democratic Party, what you have on your hands is a disaster area.
00:35:27.000 You have, in the House of Representatives, an elderly woman, Nancy Pelosi, 80 years old, whose eyebrows have now receded all the way to the back of her head, and her face has ceased to move.
00:35:38.000 She looks exactly like the doll Cheeto from Life in Pieces at this point, and her brain works similarly.
00:35:45.000 You have a President of the United States who's no longer with us.
00:35:47.000 He's not been with us for quite some time.
00:35:49.000 Every so often, somebody pulls the string on his back and out come a series of sounds that seem to mimic words and mostly say things about how his political opponents are racist.
00:35:57.000 You pull the string, he goes, he goes, Yeah, they got that guy.
00:36:06.000 And then, backing that guy up, you have Kamala Harris, his affirmative action pick.
00:36:11.000 Not my take, his take.
00:36:13.000 He specifically said he was searching for a black woman.
00:36:15.000 So if I point out that he was searching for a black woman and found one, That's not controversial.
00:36:19.000 That's just a simple fact.
00:36:21.000 He was searching for a black woman.
00:36:22.000 He found one.
00:36:23.000 The problem is she's very, very bad at this.
00:36:25.000 A woman so bad at this...
00:36:27.000 That every time she's asked anything remotely approaching a difficult question, she breaks into a bizarre cackle like Joaquin Phoenix in Joker.
00:36:36.000 Okay, so if you're a Democrat and you're looking forward to the future, maybe you look to that younger cadre, right?
00:36:41.000 And so what exactly is the younger cadre?
00:36:43.000 Well, Kamala is younger and she's terrible.
00:36:45.000 Then you got Pete Buttigieg, whose entire pitch for being president of the United States is that he's into dudes.
00:36:50.000 That's literally his entire pitch.
00:36:51.000 He's a failed mayor of South Bend, Indiana.
00:36:53.000 He was not good at being mayor.
00:36:54.000 He ran statewide, he lost.
00:36:57.000 And then he ran for president and he lost.
00:37:00.000 And now he's the Secretary of Transportation in the middle of a vast supply chain crisis.
00:37:04.000 And he took two months off and no one noticed for paternity leave, where no one had suffered a physical injury.
00:37:10.000 And that's the guy where they're like, he should probably be president, mainly because he's gay.
00:37:14.000 Because let's face it, if Pete Buttigieg were not gay, no one would even be known to know his name.
00:37:18.000 I mean, it is that simple.
00:37:20.000 So the Democrats are going back to the drawing board and some are suggesting, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it.
00:37:26.000 They're gonna go back to Hillary Clinton!
00:37:28.000 Okay, okay.
00:37:33.000 This is the well that you're going back to.
00:37:36.000 By the way, here is the hilarious thing about Hillary Clinton.
00:37:38.000 Hillary Clinton is past her prime, right?
00:37:40.000 Hillary Clinton is way past her prime.
00:37:42.000 Hillary Clinton is, wait for it, how old is she?
00:37:45.000 Hillary Clinton is 74 years old.
00:37:47.000 Donald Trump is 75 years old.
00:37:49.000 Joe Biden will be 80 years old, running for re-election.
00:37:53.000 Okay, so Hillary Clinton is a spring chicken compared to all of the above.
00:37:57.000 Joe Biden is 79 years old right now.
00:37:59.000 Okay, this means, if I get my math right, that he will be 81 years old running for President of the United States next time around.
00:38:08.000 On the other side of the aisle, you got Donald Trump, who's widely perceived to be wanting to run for re-election.
00:38:13.000 Donald Trump will be 77 to 78 years old by the time that he runs for president again.
00:38:18.000 Hillary Clinton will be 76 years old.
00:38:20.000 So by comparison, she is basically like one of the kids from Greece.
00:38:24.000 So according to Douglas Perhaps Hillary Clinton should make a comeback.
00:38:34.000 By the way, there's nothing Hillary Clinton would love better than this.
00:38:36.000 Can she, though?
00:38:37.000 She's already, they say, in an advantageous position to become the 2024 Democratic nominee.
00:38:42.000 She's an experienced national figure who is younger than Biden and can offer a different approach from the disorganized and unpopular one the party is currently taking.
00:38:49.000 Can she though?
00:38:50.000 Also, is she that much younger?
00:38:52.000 You're basically moving from the hospice to the assisted living facility to search for your candidates at this point.
00:38:58.000 If Democrats lose control of Congress in 2022, Clinton can use the party's loss as a basis to run for president again, enabling her to claim the title of change candidate.
00:39:07.000 Good luck with that.
00:39:09.000 Based on her latest public statement, it's clear Clinton not only recognizes her position as a potential frontrunner, but also is setting up a process to help her decide whether or not to run for president again.
00:39:17.000 She recently warned of the electoral consequences in the 2022 midterms if the Democratic Party continues to align itself with its progressive wing, and urged Democrats to reject far-left positions isolating key segments of the electorate.
00:39:30.000 Clinton took a veiled jab at the Biden administration.
00:39:31.000 she said, it means nothing if we don't have a Congress that will get things done and we don't have a White House that we can count on to be sane and sober and stable and productive.
00:39:38.000 Even Bill Clinton is setting the stage for his wife's potential 2024 candidacy, referring to her in an interview with People as quote, the most qualified person to run for office in my lifetime, including me, adding that not electing her in 2016 was one of the most profound mistakes we ever made.
00:39:54.000 We can infer based on these recent remarks that Mrs. Clinton would seize the opportunity to run for president again.
00:39:59.000 What are the odds an opportunity will arise?
00:40:00.000 Well, Biden's overall job approval rating is 40%.
00:40:04.000 His rating on issues including the economy and jobs is 38%.
00:40:07.000 Taxes and government spending 33%.
00:40:08.000 Barring a major course correction, some Democrats will lose important House and Senate races in 2022.
00:40:15.000 Hillary Clinton remains ambitious, outspoken, and convinced that if not for FBI Director James Comey's intervention and Russian interference, she would have won 2016.
00:40:24.000 So, man, 2024 grudge match Hillary Clinton-Donald Trump.
00:40:28.000 It's just what America deserves.
00:40:31.000 Yeah, man.
00:40:32.000 Go for it, guys.
00:40:33.000 This is the best you can do.
00:40:36.000 Yeah, our country might be in some trouble there.
00:40:39.000 All righty.
