The President of the United States is a doddering old man who can't remember where his grandkids are and can't even remember where they are. And yet, he can remember where all of them are. This is not the only example of mental incompetence from the President. Joe Biden has also been accused of ignoring his own grandkids, including his own son Hunter Biden, who is the father of a child by an alleged stripper. And that child has never been acknowledged by Joe Biden, despite DNA tests proving that the kid is actually Hunter Biden's. And he still refuses to pay for the kid or acknowledge the kid, even though DNA tests prove it is Hunter Biden s. And, of course, he still won't acknowledge that the child is actually his. This is just the latest example of Joe Biden's mental incompetence, and it's not even close to being the worst of it. And it doesn't get any better than that. The problem is, Joe Biden is 80 years old and looks like he's in pretty good shape for someone his age, considering he's running for re-election, and he's looking to run for a second term in 2020, which means he's probably not going to be much better than he was a few years ago, which is not a good thing at all. And he's not much younger than he used to be, either, but he's definitely not much better at remembering where his kids are. In fact, he's more forgettable than his own kids are, and that's not a problem at all, which makes it even better. . at least he can be a problem, right? except that he's a lot of people can remember their grandparents and he doesn't even know where they're even exist? . . . and he can name them, right?? in a way that s not even a thing let alone that he even remembers them? in any detail that s even better than you can even remember them or that they even exist so he doesn t even remember the last time you went out to visit them in the White House it's a week ago? I mean, you don't have an answer to that? ? just like you don t have an idea of what you remember from the last week, do you remember when you went to the country last week? You don't remember it?
00:00:00.000Well, having a president of the United States who is 80 years old and is looking to run for re-election, he would be 86 when he finishes his second term.
00:01:53.000My parents have a bunch of grandkids and They can name where all the grandkids are.
00:01:56.000They have four kids, and they have a bunch of grandkids, and they can name where all the grandkids are because it's not actually all that difficult.
00:02:01.000In fact, I can name where all my nieces and nephews are located.
00:02:22.000Because he is squaring around Hunter Biden as though Hunter Biden is still a wonderful, decent human being.
00:02:27.000Hunter Biden is a garbage bag of a human being.
00:02:30.000Not only a person who has committed obvious crimes in his past and who may be involved in funneling cash to the rest of the Biden family, but also is the father of a child by an alleged stripper.
00:02:42.000And that child has never been acknowledged by Joe Biden.
00:02:45.000There's been actual DNA tests that show that the kid is Hunter Biden's.
00:02:48.000Hunter still refuses to pay for the kid or acknowledge the kid is his.
00:02:52.000According to Fox News, President Biden has yet again refused to acknowledge his son Hunter's estranged four-year-old daughter, while speaking about his grandchildren as an Arkansas paternity case involving the ordeal heats up.
00:03:01.000On Thursday, Biden spoke to the staffers' kids on Take Our Kids to Work Day, saying he speaks to his six grandchildren daily and is crazy about them.
00:03:09.000His seventh grandchild, Navy Joan Roberts, who Hunter had with ex-stripper London Roberts, a trend that has continued for some time.
00:03:15.000Biden has repeatedly acted as if the kid doesn't exist.
00:03:17.000December 2022 marked the second Christmas season in a row that the White House left Hunters out of wedlock daughter out of a Christmas stocking display.
00:03:23.000Before that, in 2020, Biden said he and his wife, Jill Biden, had five grandchildren forgetting about a newborn Hunter had just had with his wife, Melissa Cohen.
00:03:30.000And the stumble later forced a correction from the first lady who said they have six, again, leaving out Navy Joan.
00:04:04.000You don't have to have an amazing memory to remember when he went over to Ireland, especially if you're the person who went over to Ireland.
00:04:10.000Here is Joe Biden being flustered and confused by the question.
00:04:14.000What was the last country you traveled to?
00:04:17.000The last country I've traveled, I'm thinking what's the last one I was in?
00:04:21.000I've been to 89 I met with 89 heads of state so far.
00:04:27.000So I'm trying to think, where was the last place I was?
00:05:04.000No, actually, no, because that's a really arbitrary definition.
00:05:07.000There was the president yesterday endowed by their creator, endowed by God with certain inalienable rights, meaning rights that are just they have just because they're born.
00:05:18.000And those rights are life, to have a good life, liberty, In the pursuit of happiness.
00:05:28.000So there's a reason that this is relevant.
00:05:31.000The reason is because any press worth its salt would actually be asking this person difficult questions.
00:05:37.000He's the most powerful person on the face of the earth.
00:05:40.000And every day they're given the privilege of asking questions to the most powerful person on the face of the earth and a person who's supposed to be answerable to the demands of 340 million Americans.

00:06:53.000Okay, so the press, theoretically, should be asking difficult questions of this doddering old fool who happens to be in charge of the most powerful engine of economic growth and military power in the history of humanity.
00:07:16.000I mean, you actually get to ask questions of a person who's in charge of the most powerful military force On the planet, in all the planetary history, and the person who's in charge of the most powerful economy in human history.
00:07:26.000Instead, what you do is, like a bunch of sycophantic, sycophantic servants, you submit your questions in advance to the president's team, so that he can call on you, and you can pretend to ask the question back to him.
00:07:42.000So, if they were just submitting a bunch of written questions and then you were answering, right, you're just reading it off a list, that'd be one thing.
00:08:32.000Your top economic priority has been to build up U.S.
00:08:36.000domestic manufacturing in competition with China.
00:08:40.000But your rules against expanding chip manufacturing in China is hurting South Korean companies that rely heavily on Beijing.
00:08:48.000Are you damaging a key ally in the competition with China to help your domestic politics ahead of the election?
00:08:56.000Okay, now imagine that he hadn't been fed that question in advance.
00:08:59.000Imagine that she had just hit him with that right off the top, right?
00:09:01.000Question number one would have been, are you damaging your alliance with South Korea by reshoring semiconductor manufacturing to the United States in order to avoid Chinese dominance?
00:09:11.000That's an actual pretty good question, right?
00:09:13.000There's nothing wrong with the question itself.
00:09:14.000But when you submit it in advance to Joe Biden so his team can create spin around it, you don't actually get an honest answer.
00:09:30.000The actual picture of the card with the question on it juxtaposed with the actual reporter's question.
00:09:36.000The Los Angeles Times is denying submitting questions to the White House, according to Fox News, ahead of Wednesday's press conference.
00:09:42.000The vice president of communications for the L.A.
00:09:44.000Times, Hillary Manning, provided the following statement to Fox News Digital, quote, Our reporter did not submit any questions in advance of the Q&A with President Biden.
00:09:50.000Courtney Subramanian covers the White House for the L.A.
00:10:02.000The White House has not responded to any sort of actual question about any of that.
00:10:08.000Caitlin Collins, who's the CNN White House correspondent, she said, quote, it's not uncommon for the White House to prepare these types of briefing materials for the president, but it's the level of specificity that's in the spotlight.
00:10:17.000As you note, the note card included the name and the photo of the reporter and a possible question.
00:10:21.000Now, it's worth noting her question was not identical to what was on the note.
00:10:55.000The White House is trying to pretend that this is normal.
00:10:57.000It is not normal in any way, shape or form.
00:10:59.000This is why Joe Biden has been absolutely avoiding serious press conferences for years on end at this point.
00:11:06.000Here's Corrine Jean-Pierre, who also should avoid serious questions because she's really bad at it, trying to pretend this is all normal.
00:11:12.000The LA Times said that their reporter did not submit any questions in advance of yesterday's press conference.
00:11:17.000So, to the people who saw that pocket card, can you explain how that ended up there and why the President needed something like that?
00:11:25.000So, just to step back, and I'm actually glad you asked that question.
00:11:29.000Clearly, I would let the reporter for Los Angeles Times speak for herself.
00:11:34.000It is entirely normal for a president to be briefed on reporters who will be asking questions at a press conference and issues that we expect they might ask about.
00:11:43.000It is not surprising that yesterday we would anticipate questions that he did receive, right, on the visit with the South Korean president.
00:11:54.000We are just amazing at predicting the exact wording of questions from exact reporters.
00:12:35.000And it doesn't help matters when, you know, you see him getting cheat sheets for, you know, questions and interviews and things like that.
00:12:41.000He has been a consequential president, but this is a totally legitimate area of concern, and polls bear that out.
00:12:48.000Paul Farhi from the Washington Post says the same thing.
00:12:50.000He says it's very common for the White House to ask the press pool kind of what's on your mind and get sort of advanced notions of what kinds of questions could be answered.
00:12:58.000But the specificity is very different.
00:12:59.000According to Farhi, in their advanced conversations, reporters rarely offer anything as specific as Subramanian's topic.
00:13:04.000The typical answer is news of the day, which leaves the options for questioning the president open.
00:13:08.000You don't want to give away your questions to the veteran reporter.
00:13:14.000Times says that Subramanian did not provide the White House officials with a specific or even general question in advance of the news conference.
00:13:20.000However, on Tuesday, the reporter mentioned to official semiconductors one of several topics she might want to cover.
00:13:25.000And the White House is just pretending they're amazing at this.
00:13:29.000Okay, the press are acting in cahoots with this administration that is perfectly clear at every step of the way.
00:13:35.000We'll get to why this matters in just one second.
00:13:36.000First, if you run a business, you got to actually be efficient about how you run your business.
00:13:40.000Here's one thing you cannot afford to do.
00:13:42.000Take a bunch of packages, put them in your car, spend 20 minutes driving down to the post office, standing in line for 45 minutes, and then finally getting to the front of the line and paying too much for the actual postage.
00:13:51.000Post Office is great, but that's not what you need.
00:15:55.000He lies that Jim Crow 2.0 is the big threat in Georgia.
00:15:58.000And then you get record black turnout in Georgia.
00:16:01.000He lies by saying democracy is under threat because a couple of hundred criminals decided that they were going to attempt violence at the January 6th riot and hundreds of others just sort of milling around.
00:16:11.000And this was a threat to our democracy so grave that he must win a second term.
00:16:15.000He's a liar when it comes to his policy with regard to China.
00:16:19.000He's like, well, maybe we should just be nice to them.
00:16:21.000I mean, is there a thing that Joe Biden has not lied about?
00:16:24.000His dishonesty is part of his entire appeal.
00:16:27.000Joe Biden has been lying since he first ran for president in 1988 while plagiarizing speeches from Neil Kinnock.
00:16:32.000He is a liar, a really, really bad liar.
00:16:37.000I recall that in 2012, when Paul Ryan was debating him in the vice presidential debate, he just started randomly lying about French presidents in Lebanon and American presidents.
00:17:26.000And this is why Joe Biden is able to count on the fact that the media will presumably continue to not ask him tough questions about his economic policy, for example.
00:17:36.000To take the latest battle that is an example of this.
00:17:40.000The Republicans passed what is, in fact, an incredibly mild law with regard to cuts.
00:17:45.000Okay, so they're talking now about the debt ceiling.
00:17:48.000Kevin McCarthy, who the media portrayed as a complete incompetent boob, he was never going to be able to get a majority together for anything as Speaker of the House.
00:19:12.000However, one member of the Senate, Dianne Feinstein, has shingles.
00:19:17.000The reason I put shingles in air quotes right there is because the reason that she's not in the Senate is because she, like Joe Biden, is mentally incompetent, but way more so.
00:19:35.000Everyone knows this, including the Democrats, which means she is not available to actually vote, which means it is currently a 50 to 49 split in the Senate, granting extraordinary power to Joe Manchin, Kyrsten Sinema, Jon Tester.
00:19:47.000These are all sort of red state, but blue seat Senate members.
00:19:53.000All of them are going to have to negotiate now this debt ceiling battle.
00:19:56.000Democrats have painted themselves in the corner.
00:19:57.000The good news is they can always count on the media to get them out of it.
00:20:38.000Producer Jake has been raving about PrizePix.
00:20:40.000He recently made entries on the NBA and NHL playoffs.
00:20:43.000He says that the interface is incredibly simplified, it's really easy to use, a lot easier than other fantasy sports apps, and Jake is up on his pick, so good for Jake.
00:20:51.000He's not allowed to win too much or he might leave.

00:21:16.000It includes what are, by any historic measure, extraordinarily mild cuts.
00:21:21.000The Democratic press is going to play this as though Republicans are standing in the way of increasing the debt ceiling, and therefore the economy is going to fall on its face.
00:21:27.000The problem is that because Dianne Feinstein has basically brought the number of Democratic senators down to 50 from 51, this means that the Democrats are now going to have to make a deal with Joe Manchin, or Kyrsten Sinema, or Jon Tester, and when I say or, I mean all three.
00:21:43.000Manchin is running in West Virginia, probably against the West Virginia governor.
00:21:48.000So the West Virginia governor right now is, I believe, Jim Justice.
00:21:51.000Jim Justice has said, pretty popular over there, he has said that he's going to run for the Senate, or he's implied he's going to run for the Senate.
00:21:57.000Manchin is looking forward to losing his job, unless he actually scores a win off of Joe Biden.
00:22:02.000Joe Biden just jacked him on the Inflation Reduction Act.
00:22:04.000Remember on the Inflation Reduction Act, it was Joe Manchin who signed on the dotted line in return for some special giveaways for coal and natural gas in his home state.
00:22:11.000And now Joe Biden is not giving any of those subsidies for the coal or the natural gas.
00:22:17.000So theoretically, Joe Biden is going to have to go negotiate with Manchin or Kyrsten Sinema in Arizona, who is now relabeled as an independent and is not running as a Democrat anymore, or Jon Tester, who is from Montana, a state where he could easily lose his seat if he decides to vote too much to the left.
00:22:30.000So all three of them could score concessions in conjunction with Republicans from Joe Biden.
00:22:34.000The good news is, the Democrats are set because the press will continue to defend them no matter what.
00:22:40.000According to Politico, the White House and Congressional Democrats are preparing to ramp up attacks on House Republicans over the bill, targeting swing district members for endorsing policies that would strip investments in their home districts and gut funding for popular programs.
00:22:51.000By the way, some of the things that the Republicans have proposed are like, maybe you need to work in order to receive Medicaid.
00:22:56.000Like, if you wish to actually get welfare dollars, there have to be work requirements attached.
00:23:02.000Pretty much everybody in the United States.
00:23:04.000We all believe that if you want to get some government largesse, then you have to actually put your feet on the pavement and start actually going to work.
00:23:11.000Biden's party insists it's feeling little pressure to deliver on House Speaker McCarthy's biggest ask, a true negotiation over the debt ceiling.
00:23:19.000Chris Coon says if you reward hostage taking, it simply repeats.
00:23:22.000I don't expect the president to now say, oh my gosh, you passed a bill with two votes that imposes draconian cuts across programs most Americans would never support.
00:23:29.000Biden is refusing to budge from his demand Congress pass an unconditional increase to the debt ceiling.
00:23:33.000Well, again, there are some Democrats who want Biden to negotiate.
00:23:37.000What's hilarious is watching the obvious pardons at, for example, the Washington Post, try to square the circles.
00:24:02.000They think that Joe Biden is, you know, is in the right and Republicans should not even negotiate over this thing.
00:24:08.000So again, Biden is stuck sort of between a rock and a hard place.
00:24:12.000But no matter what happens, he will have the love of the media to back him up.
00:24:16.000Presumably this includes, on the economic front, where U.S.
00:24:19.000economic growth slipped in the first quarter in the midst of still high inflation and rising interest rates, according to the Wall Street Journal.
00:24:24.000GDP, a measure of the value of all the goods and services produced in the country, rose at an inflation and seasonally adjusted 1.1% annual rate from January to March.
00:24:33.000That is a significant slowdown from 2.6% growth in the fourth quarter, according to the Commerce Department.
00:24:38.000Consumption continues to be high because of the inflation.
00:24:41.000Businesses, however, are pulling back sharply, drawing down inventories, cutting equipment purchases, reducing housing investment.
00:24:46.000Many economists are predicting a recession in the second half of the year as the Federal Reserve continues its campaign to cool the economy and lower inflation.
00:24:53.000Meanwhile, the systemic banking problems that have plagued this economy are not going away.
00:24:58.000According to the Wall Street Journal's Greg Ip, quote, the biggest question facing the economy lately has been how bad will the banking turmoil be?
00:25:05.000banks failed a month ago and a third is still struggling, emergency lending by the Federal Reserve seems to have prevented broader harm.
00:25:10.000But the question should be, will it spread beyond the banks?
00:25:13.000And that is because the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank a month ago, which touched off this bout of turmoil, was a symptom, not a cause, of broader forces at work in the financial system and the economy.
00:25:22.000A lot of banks own devalued bonds, just like Silicon Valley Bank.
00:25:26.000But that's just the tip of a debt iceberg.
00:25:27.000Since the end of 2009, total debt owed by government, business, and households has risen 90% to $68 trillion.
00:25:35.000That's the total debt owed by government, business, and households.
00:25:38.000All outstanding debt is $68 trillion, according to the Federal Reserve.
00:25:41.000Since early last year, interest rates have risen at their fastest pace since the early 1980s.
00:25:46.000When the interest rates go up, the value of an existing loan or a bond goes down.
00:25:50.000Regardless of accounting treatment, the economic reality is bonds and loans are worth a lot less than when they were issued, and somebody is going to have to bear those losses.
00:25:57.000Banks are the most visible debt holders, but collectively, just as much debt is held by pension and mutual funds, private credit funds, life insurers, business development companies, hedge funds, and other non-banks, or as they're called, shadow banks.
00:26:08.000For a long-only investor who doesn't borrow such as a pension or mutual fund, the losses have few systemic consequences beyond feeling a little poorer.
00:26:14.000But for financial intermediaries, it's a lot more complicated because what they earn on their assets has now shrunk a lot relative to what they pay for the funding.
00:26:20.000So in other words, we are not remotely done with the fiscal crisis that has been caused by the inflation followed on by radical increases in the interest rates that were necessary in order to tamp down the inflation.
00:26:31.000So why are members of the media not asking the Biden administration about this?
00:26:55.000That does not include the unknown gotaways.
00:26:58.000A huge percentage of the people who are coming to the border are then shipped into the interior of the United States and are not receiving appointments at the border for literally years on end, which means by the time they do, they're already well integrated into American society or receiving state welfare dollars or emergency benefits or whatever it is.
00:27:12.000Well, now the Biden administration is announcing new efforts to limit the flow of unauthorized migrants across the southern border, including the opening of processing centers in the region.
00:27:20.000The announcement came two weeks before the scheduled court-ordered lifting of Title 42.
00:27:25.000So prepare for a giant wave of illegal immigration when Title 42, which was the rule that allowed our border patrol to simply turn people away at the border saying you might have COVID, when that expires, you're going to see a giant wave at the border.
00:27:36.000In a joint appearance at the State Department on Thursday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said would-be migrants should not mistake the expiration of Title 42 for a green light to cross the border.
00:27:47.000So, Mayorkas tried to claim that our border is not open, which is going to be heard by precisely no one since the Biden administration policy has been, if you make it across the border, you get to stay, basically.
00:27:57.000Our border is not open and will not be open after May 11th.
00:28:03.000And yet, Mayorkas still, the incompetent Department of Homeland Security secretary, he still says, guys, we're going to get another surge.
00:28:11.000We have been preparing for this transition for more than a year and a half.
00:28:14.000Notwithstanding those preparations, we do expect that encounters at our southern border will increase.
00:28:22.000Now, Mayorkas says that he's going to use Title 8, which allows people to be basically barred for five years from the United States if you're caught crossing illegally and potential criminal charges for people trying to enter the country illegally repeatedly, which sounds very Trumpy, right?
00:28:35.000Except for the fact that the actual solution posited by the Biden administration on all of this is hemispheric.
00:28:41.000So Mayorkas says the real problem here is not our border policy.
00:28:44.000The real problem is not that we don't have enough border patrol agents or that we should be turning people away or remain in Mexico or any of the rest of that.
00:28:58.000As the Secretary described, this is a hemispheric challenge that demands hemispheric solutions.
00:29:05.000Working with our neighbors in the region, we can and will reduce the number of migrants who reach our southern border.
00:29:13.000The Regional Processing Centers announced today will be a critical addition to the programs and processes DHS has in place for qualifying individuals to obtain authorization to enter the United States before arriving at our borders.
00:29:30.000So does anyone actually believe they're going to effectuate this?
00:29:33.000Why is it that this immigration problem has been allowed to percolate for years on end under Joe Biden?
00:29:38.000The answer is, again, because all of the members of the press who are hardcore on Donald Trump being a cruel, inhumane person at the border, they have nothing to say about Joe Biden leaving the border pretty much open.
00:29:49.000In just one second, we'll get to the Republican front runner on the other side, the person who, right now, by the polls, is most likely to take on Joe Biden.
00:30:42.000customer service team helped me make the switch.
00:30:44.000In as little as 10 minutes, I was even able to keep my cell phone number.
00:30:47.000Not only will this save you money, you'll also get the satisfaction of knowing that you're helping to support a great American company because the CEO and chairman of PeerTalk is a military veteran.
00:30:54.000And when you become a PeerTalk customer, you're given the option to support America's warrior partnership.

00:31:06.000Also, if you, along with tens of millions of other people, watched Netflix's hit show, Making a Murderer, you're going to love DailyWirePlus's new exclusive 10-part series with Candace Owens, Convicting a Murderer, coming this summer.
00:31:18.000So making a murder painted a picture of an innocent man set up by the Manitowoc County Sheriff's Department.
00:31:23.000It seems like a major miscarriage of American justice.
00:31:26.000Members of the left have been gloating for years about the corruption they supposedly discovered among members of the police force.
00:31:30.000Trust me, the truth is way more shocking than anybody expected.
00:31:33.000Candace is boldly investigating the notorious Stephen Avery case and once again exposing lies around the narrative surrounding police misconduct.
00:31:40.000She's disclosing the shocking parts of Avery's story that were completely omitted in the Netflix series.
00:31:45.000And there's this whole spate of series out there from Netflix and Spotify and Wondery all about supposedly innocent murderers.
00:32:43.000So Joe Biden is vulnerable, but not from the media.
00:32:46.000Obviously, they're going to protect him every step of the way, which means that Republicans need an There are a couple of options, but obviously the person who is currently front running in the polls is former President Trump by the available polls.
00:32:56.000If you look at the national primary, he's up by somewhere between 20 and 30 points.
00:33:02.000Now I'll remind you that if you go all the way back to like the 2008 election season, Hillary Clinton also had a very big lead on Barack Obama before all of that fell apart.
00:33:09.000And we've seen various people who have leading races this early on, but Trump is obviously the guy with the momentum.
00:33:15.000He's obviously the guy in the lead right now.
00:33:17.000And that brings us to today's episode of Good Trump.
00:33:34.000The most trafficked part of his rally is where he did his routine imitating a female weightlifter trying to pick up a weight and then a male lifter trying to pick up the weight.
00:33:42.000It went viral because it was taken out of context to suggest physical actions of a different kind and so on.
00:33:47.000But the good Trump part of this rally is in Manchester, New Hampshire, is where he mocked Joe Biden for not being able to take questions, which, of course, is a pretty rich vein for attack.
00:33:58.000Now you have a whole little time to think about it, but we'll take a few questions, OK?
00:35:29.000He also made the suggestion, again, correct, that the true threat to democracy in the United States is Joe Biden and the Democratic Party, who have been attempting to centralize power in the executive branch, who wish to overrun all state authority.
00:35:40.000I mean, for God's sake, they have the Department of Justice now attacking the state of Tennessee for trying to ban mutilation of children.
00:36:08.000No, it's Biden who poses the threat to democracy because he is grossly incompetent, has no idea what he's doing.
00:36:17.000And basically, he doesn't have a clue.
00:36:19.000And that's a very bad position to put our country in.
00:36:22.000OK, again, fact check crew, fact check crew, by the way, Jim VandeHei of Axios is reporting now that White House officials say it's actually difficult to schedule public or private events with Joe Biden in the morning, in the evening or on weekends.
00:37:25.000I don't know, like maybe lovely Hillary or beautiful Hillary.
00:37:28.000But I'm going to retire the name Crooked so that we can use the name for Joe Biden, because he'll be known from now on as Crooked Joe Biden.
00:38:23.000He has no principles at all when it comes to which angle he's going to attack from.
00:38:27.000As I said, all the way back in 2016, he's the guy you didn't want to fight in high school, not because he was like an amazing fighter, but because you never knew whether he was just carrying like a brick in his backpack.
00:39:48.000This is the thing that again, it's one of the reasons why people have faith that he's going to attack Joe Biden using literally anything at his disposal, because he will.
00:39:55.000I mean, he's the guy who showed up in 2016 with a bunch of Bill Clinton sexual harassment victims in tow.
00:41:22.000He threw everything to think of at Joe Biden, including the Hunter stuff, and it didn't really seem to stick to Joe Biden, mainly because there was no sense of solidity about Donald Trump as president.
00:41:31.000This is really the problem for Trump in 2020.
00:41:33.000It became a referendum on Trump, not on Biden.
00:41:35.000If you would like it to be a referendum on Joe Biden, what you need is a sense of solidity.
00:41:48.000Can we get back to like some sense of normalcy here?
00:41:50.000Like just like where I don't have to think about what's going on at the top level every day.
00:41:53.000That's what people thought they were electing when they elected actual inanimate object warmed over corpse, room temperature level corpse, Joe Biden.
00:42:01.000They thought, hey, if we elect this mold-wearing body, nothing will happen.
00:42:05.000And then Joe Biden turned out to be, he stripped off his suit, he's like, and he goes, say, hello, I'm Bunley and I'm here.
00:43:02.000Is freewheeling, like, I understand it's very satisfying to watch the cartoon attack, the kind of like out of nowhere, let me pull out, like he's going into his bag.
00:43:11.000Is he pulling out a rubber hammer or is it going to be a chainsaw?
00:43:18.000Is it going to be successful is the question because there is no substitute for victory.
00:43:22.000Joe Biden has the entire media on his side, the entire media on his side, the legacy media.
00:43:27.000They will not ask him tough questions.
00:43:28.000Who's going to make him answer the tough questions?
00:43:32.000That's gonna be the question of the 2024 campaign.
00:43:35.000Okay, in just one second, we'll get to a stunning new report that suggests that 25% of all high schoolers in the United States now say they are LGBTQ plus minus divided by a sign, ampersand, hashtag, poop emoji.
00:43:49.000First, we recently celebrated the 75th anniversary of Israel's independence.
00:43:53.000Coincidentally, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is also celebrating 40 years of ministry.
00:43:57.000Today, thousands of Jews, both in Israel and in war-torn Ukraine, struggle to survive life-threatening crises including extreme poverty, hunger, and violence in the form of conflict, anti-Semitism, and terrorism.
00:44:07.000Among these vulnerable populations are tens of thousands of Holocaust survivors and elderly Jews who aren't going to survive without basic needs.
00:44:12.000Have you ever met a Holocaust survivor?
00:44:13.000I mean, talk about people who have gone through the ringer.
00:44:16.000If you're a Holocaust survivor and you live in Ukraine, This means that you went through the ringer with the Holocaust, and then you were occupied by the Soviets under Joseph Stalin, and then you've lived through several wars with Russia.
00:45:12.000It found that 75.5 percent of 14 to 18 year olds said they were heterosexual in 2021.
00:45:18.000This is two years old, which means it's higher now.
00:45:21.00075.5% which means that 24.5% one quarter one in four high schoolers in the United States as of two years ago was saying they were LGBTQ plus minus divided by sign ampersand hashtag emoji.
00:45:36.000The remainder say they are bisexual 12.1% which by the way is like That's the easy way out of the LGBTQ conundrum.
00:45:45.000Because as it turns out, the vast majority of people who identify as bisexual in the United States also have sex exclusively with one sex.
00:45:51.000So you see, high school girls are like, yes, I'm bisexual, and then every person they date is a boy.
00:45:55.000Gay or lesbian, 3.2%, which is, again, oodles higher than it has ever been.
00:46:00.000Other, 3.9%, I don't know what other means.
00:46:02.000Or instead, they question their sexu- I guess other is like pansexual, polysexual, polyamorous.
00:46:09.000Random sexual, randosexual, or said they questioned their sexuality 5.2%, which again is an easy way of joining the cool kids group.
00:46:17.000Because to be fully authentic, as we've discussed before, the cult of authenticity, individual authenticity in the United States, you claim that you're a victim.
00:46:24.000The easiest way to claim that you are a victim in the United States is to claim that you are a member of a sexual minority.
00:46:28.000Because here's the thing, all the other members of minority groups in the United States actually have ethnic minority status.
00:46:34.000They actually have a thing that you can look at them and be like, oh yes, you're a member of a formerly or currently victimized group.
00:46:39.000However, if you declare your own sexual desire, this now places you in the category of victimized group without you actually having to do anything that gets you victimized and actually gets you valorized in today's media.
00:46:48.000As we've been told by the Biden administration, the greatest heroes among us are the trans youth.
00:46:52.000That's literally something that Joe Biden said, said the bravest people in America are little boys who think they are little girls.
00:46:58.000The percentage of students who do not view themselves as straight has more than doubled in recent years from 11% in 2015 to 25% in 2021.
00:47:02.000percent in 2015 to 25 percent in 2021.
00:47:11.000I mean, that is how you double the percentage of people who view themselves as not straight, more than double it, from 11% eight years ago to 25% in 2021.
00:47:22.000So that's a six year gap and a more than doubling of the percentage of high schoolers who say they are LGBTQ plus IA divided by sign.
00:47:30.000Does that sound like we've reached like a Darwinian evolutionary bottleneck?
00:47:33.000I keep saying this over and over because the great lie that we have been told for 30 years is that sexual orientation and behavior is entirely genetic.
00:47:41.000The evidence to back this does not exist.
00:47:43.000They did a study from the Human Genome Project.
00:47:45.000It was buried by the media because they didn't like this study.
00:47:47.000I know because I talked to some of the people who performed the study and what it found is that there is no such thing as a quote-unquote gay gene.
00:47:54.000The linkage is between genetic profiles for risk-taking behavior And differently oriented sexual behavior doesn't mean there's no genetic component to gay, lesbian, bisexual.
00:48:06.000What it does mean is the idea that there is like a binary on off switch or gay or lesbian or a binary on off switch that is yet to be found in the genetic profile.
00:48:14.000But we're all operating under that assumption.
00:48:17.000The only reason that's important, like I don't care about that, actually, because to me, no matter what your biology drives you to do, that does not excuse your behavior.
00:48:25.000Male biology drives men toward polyamory, right?
00:48:29.000Male biology drives men to have sex with as many women, typically speaking, as humanly possible, and yet we've developed entire social systems around the idea that men should be monogamous with one woman.
00:48:37.000That's a denial of the biological imperative for men to procreate with as many women as humanly possible.
00:48:43.000As a society, correctly, we have decided over the course of thousands of years, this is a useless and bad and counterproductive way of men approaching their sexual behavior.
00:48:52.000So I don't really care about biological, not biological.
00:48:54.000The reason this matters is because the argument that's constantly made is that you can change social standards.
00:48:58.000You can explode rules and explode roles, and it will not change the percentages of behavior among young people because the only people who are going to act this way are the people who are biologically driven to do that, and that's unchanging.
00:49:08.000This is why you will see people pointing out that there's been a 2000% increase in transsexual identification, transgender identification.
00:49:18.000You'll point that out and they'll say, well, you know, way back in the day, fewer people identified as left-handed.
00:49:23.000Because left-handedness is a genetic trait.
00:49:26.000So first of all, that stat is absolutely meaningless because you're talking about basically a doubling of the population of left-handers based on, we used to try to force left-handers to write right-handed in a lot of cultures.
00:49:37.000That is not the same thing as a 2,000% increase in a fringe identification.
00:49:47.000So what they try to do is they say, well, it's just our increased tolerance.
00:49:49.000But then at the same time, they'll say our increased tolerance does not make up for the fact that we are a wildly discriminatory society.
00:49:55.000So they'll say that you have 25% of young people identifying as LGBTQ plus because of increased tolerance in American society for this behavior.
00:50:02.000So everyone, one quarter of the population was always gay.
00:50:05.000One quarter of the population was always trans, bisexual, only now they feel free to flower like a butterfly coming out of the cocoon because our society is so open and caring, you see, but also our society is brutal and vicious and terrible.
00:50:17.000Our society makes all these people victims.
00:50:19.000The worst thing you can be in America is an LGBTQI plus person, but American society is also so wonderful and tolerant that you have one quarter of all young people who are now identifying this way.
00:50:30.000It is all part of a general progressive ideology that is not progressive, it is transgressive.
00:50:34.000It's about the idea that the only thing that matters about you is your subjective sense of self-identity and any imposition, institutional, religious, legal, any institution that imposes on what you feel on the inside this very moment.
00:50:49.000Those all need to be done away with so you can be your most authentic self and authenticity is heroism.
00:51:08.000It's amazing to see how this, again, look at the way that this is pitched.
00:51:12.000Dr. Molly, by the way, Another reason this is important is because, shockingly, one-third of U.S.
00:51:16.000teen girls seriously considered attempting suicide in 2021.
00:51:20.000I know we're pretending that all this has to do with the pandemic.
00:51:22.000It does not all have to do with the pandemic.
00:51:23.000The wild increase that we have seen in both alternative sexual identity and mentally ill, suicidally ideated behavior among teens, these are heavily associated.
00:51:33.000The way that you can tell this is because the suicidal ideation rate and actual suicidality rate among LGBTQ plus minus divided by signed teens is leagues higher than it is for straight identified teens.
00:51:43.000So if you have a bunch more people identifying this way that has a identifying as an alternative sexual orientation or gender identity and that group has attendant upon it a much much like leagues higher rate of suicidal ideation and actual suicidal attempt.
00:52:03.000At the association between both of those numbers going up extraordinarily wildly.
00:52:08.000And yes, a lot of this is located among young girls because that is where you are seeing a wild uptick in this sort of behavior.
00:52:14.000A huge percentage of this is driven by social media.
00:52:17.000But how does the scientific community answer this?
00:52:19.000Instead of saying this is a social contagion that you may want to protect your kids from, so they can actually flourish and they can actually find out who they are without the imposition of a perverse social media incentive structure.
00:52:30.000Instead, they're like, no, no, no, it's just that everyone was always like this.
00:52:34.000Dr. Molly Blackburn, who teaches sexuality studies at Ohio State University, so a professional useless person, she says, quote, it's an increase in acceptance from both parents and society.
00:52:42.000Accepting people creates a context where a child will be more willing to say they are gay.
00:52:46.000She does not think the actual number of children who are truly gay, lesbian, or bisexual has changed in recent years, but that young people are more willing to admit it now.
00:54:01.000That is the recipe for horrific parenting.
00:54:03.000Your chief role in society is to teach your kids the rules of the road, to civilize your children, to tell them what is good for them, what has been societally proved to be good for them.
00:54:19.000The left knows this, by the way, which is why the left is increasingly pushing for fascistic solutions to cram down terrible ideas on children.
00:54:27.000Dylan Mulvaney, hero of the republic, man who says he's a woman for a grand total of a year.
00:54:32.000Actually, he's just a flamboyant gay man, but dresses in women's clothing and gets all sorts of lucrative endorsement deals.
00:54:38.000Now says we should use the federal government to criminalize anybody who refuses to pretend that Dylan Mulvaney, a man with a d***, is actually a woman.
00:55:26.000Societies that don't obliterate the distinction between male and female, they will be successful.
00:55:30.000Societies that obliterate that distinction will be unsuccessful.
00:55:32.000Societies that incentivize sexual behavior that is Statistically abnormal.
00:55:41.000Societies that do this sort of thing are likely to not prosper.
00:55:44.000Societies that do not incentivize that are likely to prosper at least demographically.
00:55:49.000But, you know, our entire media class have decided to buy into this as a sign of virtue.
00:55:53.000My least favorite form of this is when we have people who know so little about the Bible that it would make their head spin.
00:55:58.000Like, they can't name the first five books.
00:56:00.000They probably can't name the first two books.
00:56:02.000Talking about the Bible, here is Whoopi Goldberg, great intellectual of our age, explaining that the Bible supports parents getting trans surgeries for their children.
00:56:09.000I'm gonna need an explanation, Whoopi.
00:56:12.000This is a party that says we believe in parents' rights.
00:56:17.000You're telling me that as a parent, I'm not smart enough to decide if my child and I need to have gender-affirming or doctors are not involved?
00:56:48.000God was really clear that you should be able to trans your kids.
00:56:50.000I'm pretty sure God says not anything remotely like that.
00:56:53.000And the only analog to what we are currently doing to our children is child sacrifice to Molech.
00:56:59.000That's literally the only analog that I can find in the Bible to anything remotely like what Hilary, what Will B. Goldberg here is talking about.
00:57:07.000But again, this has become part and parcel of sort of the Democratic agenda.
00:57:09.000And the Democratic agenda is to mainstream this garbage and then do it in the name of God, which is just, I mean, you want to talk about a violation of the commandment not to use God's name in vain?
00:57:24.000I want you to know that your president sees you.
00:57:27.000Jill, Kamala, Doug, our entire administration sees you for who you are, made in the image of God and deserving of dignity, respect and support.
00:57:37.000But we know it's hard when there are those out there who don't see you and don't respect you.
00:57:42.000For example, the onslaught of anti-transgender state laws attacking you and your families is simply wrong.
00:57:51.000And he says, the image of God, the image of God, right?
00:57:54.000This is the language that Joe Biden uses, the image of God.
00:57:56.000He doesn't even finish reading the verse, because if you finish reading the verse, you've got a problem.
00:57:59.000The literal verse in Genesis says that man was made in the image of God.
00:58:09.000This is all part and parcel of a broader social contagion that is being promoted by the left in order to explode institutions they see as patriarchal and discriminatory.
00:58:32.000Not only do I not see the problem, I think this is a good thing.
00:58:34.000I'm frankly confused as to why anyone would think that this is a bad thing.
00:58:37.000We are not talking about creating a Barbie doll that is differently sexually oriented in order to indoctrinate your children in a particular viewpoint about the world.
00:58:46.000We're talking about making people with Down syndrome, an actual genetic condition, feel accepted in society.
00:58:55.000That's a good thing, considering the left's generalized push right now to eugenicize birth.
00:59:01.000In the left makes a case about abortion that basically if you are a Down syndrome person in the womb, you should be killed.
00:59:06.000So I'm very pleased that Mattel has taken the pro-life stance, which is that being Down syndrome does not mean that there is something horribly wrong with you.
00:59:13.000It is just a condition that some people have and we should and we should make society more accepting for people.
00:59:18.000Like I don't see any problem with this whatsoever.
01:00:01.000Anybody who says this is not very nice, this is not woke.
01:00:05.000It's not woke to say that Down syndrome people and Down syndrome kids should have a Barbie that looks like them.
01:00:11.000I don't see anything woke about that whatsoever.
01:00:14.000In fact, as I say, I think it's a pro-life argument, even if they don't intend it to be a pro-life argument.
01:00:18.000Okay, meanwhile, other things that I like.
01:00:19.000So it is hysterical to me that California has failed so many times that now they've been kind of shocked rudely back into some form of reality.
01:00:25.000According to the Los Angeles Times, California is now shifting to an experiment in coercion to treat the homeless.
01:00:30.000Wait, you mean that your idea of simply letting them live on the streets and then giving them You know who's been calling for this for literally decades at this point?
01:00:38.000that that wasn't actually solving the homeless problem, oh, be still my beating heart.
01:00:42.000According to the Washington Post, in a few months, altering its past path,
01:00:46.000California will begin an experiment in what amounts to coercive compassion,
01:00:50.000an initiative that unlike today's mental health system will force people into treatment programs instead of jail
01:00:54.000and monitor their progress for at least a year.
01:00:56.000You know who's been calling for this for literally decades at this point?
01:01:03.000If you are a person who is living on the street because you have schizophrenia
01:01:06.000and you're not taking your pills, You need to not be on the streets.
01:01:09.000We should be getting you the care that you require, even if you don't consent to that care because you are schizophrenic and are not capable of taking care of yourself.
01:01:17.000In California, sharp criticism has been raised, including by medical associations and civil rights groups, that the system Governor Gavin Newsom has pushed will stigmatize people with certain mental illnesses and fail to provide enough protection for them from being drawn into the proposed process.
01:01:28.000Severe housing shortages for the mentally ill are key questions that have yet to be answered.
01:01:32.000But Newsom is now being shocked into reality by the fact that tens of thousands of mentally ill people are living on the streets, being a danger to themselves and others.
01:01:40.000So, um, again, the fact that there are people on the left who oppose this, I'm going to need an explanation as to why it is better for a person with severe schizophrenia to live on the street in their own filth than it is to push them into a program where they can get the care that they actually require.
01:01:52.000left to oppose this, I'm going to need an explanation as to why it is better for a person
01:01:55.000with severe schizophrenia to live on the street in their own filth than it is to push them
01:01:59.000into a program where they can get the care that they actually require.
01:02:02.000Okay, time for some things that I hate.
01:02:04.000When I talk about people who are deliberately transgressive, this obviously applies to these
01:02:15.000They're criminals who have decided that they are going to attempt to deface works of art, or at least areas around works of art, in order to draw attention to their idiotic cause.
01:02:24.000According to the Washington Post, protesters have now smeared black and red paint on the case and pedestal of Edgar Degas' little dancer, age 14, sculpture at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.
01:02:34.000The protesters slathered their hands, then crouched down to paint the pedestal on which the ballerina's sculpture is displayed.
01:02:39.000Then they stood up and smeared their hands across the clear case protecting the artwork.
01:02:43.000Police removed the two people in handcuffs and ushered out the people inside the gallery.
01:02:46.000Here is a little bit of footage of these morons.
01:03:17.000I have a job that requires... Yeah, you should.
01:03:20.000...health and safety, but I can't do my job unless I have a government that does their job of looking out for the health and safety of our children.
01:03:36.000Uh, apparently one of the, uh, the woman who's sitting there, she says, this is why we decided to come visit this beautiful, beloved child.
01:04:27.000Prosecute these people to the fullest extent of the law, slap them behind bars, and then listen, if you want to protest, go outside with a sign.
01:04:31.000Don't deface works of art in the name of supposedly bettering humanity.
01:04:36.000Meanwhile, speaking of people who are entirely disconnected, Barack Obama is now doing a new series where he talks to people who work for a living.
01:04:45.000Now, again, it must be wonderful to be a former Democratic president because you can have lit the world on fire and then, you know, let and then just left and you get $100 million deal from Netflix.
01:04:54.000So now he has a new Netflix documentary called Working What We Do All Day.
01:05:30.000It can be hard to make sense of where we're going.
01:05:33.000What if people from three different industries, from the service entrance to the C-suite, invited us into their lives and told us, what makes a good job good?
