00:00:30.540 President Trump scoops up $15 million in California.
00:00:35.360 We examine how the bluest of blue states
00:00:37.340 can help the president win in 2020.
00:00:39.760 Then, meanwhile, Democrats take their cues
00:00:41.980 on global affairs from a Swedish teenager
00:00:44.400 as 16-year-old environmental activist
00:00:46.780 Greta Thunberg testifies before Congress.
00:00:50.080 We get some good news on abortion,
00:00:51.700 bad news on criminal justice,
00:00:53.300 and an embarrassing report
00:00:55.080 on the gratuity habits of millennials.
00:00:57.500 All that and more, I'm Michael Knowles,
00:00:59.220 and this is The Michael Knowles Show.
00:01:07.860 I'm so sorry to say
00:01:10.040 that I missed the Trump fundraiser in Beverly Hills.
00:01:13.940 I could have seen every single conservative,
00:01:16.160 probably in the state of California,
00:01:17.600 you can fit them just about into one room.
00:01:19.840 He was there doing a whole swing
00:01:21.580 through California the past couple days,
00:01:23.140 and he raised a lot of money,
00:01:24.940 which is having some people on the left
00:01:26.340 scratch their heads.
00:01:27.560 How's he about to bring in all that money
00:01:28.840 in a state that overwhelmingly voted for Hillary Clinton?
00:01:32.080 We'll get into the numbers
00:01:33.060 because California has always played
00:01:35.560 an important role in the conservative movement,
00:01:37.660 and I think California could play a major role
00:01:40.100 in President Trump's re-election hopes in 2020.
00:01:43.180 But first, I've got to talk about Raycon.
00:01:45.960 I love Raycon.
00:01:47.800 Raycon earbuds start at about half the price
00:01:50.980 of any other premium wireless earbuds on the market.
00:01:54.940 Not going to name names,
00:01:56.080 but you know the ones that I'm talking about.
00:01:57.780 And Raycon earbuds sound just as good.
00:02:01.240 Raycon's E50 wireless earbuds
00:02:02.920 have completely changed the game.
00:02:05.680 The reason is other premium wireless earbuds,
00:02:07.980 they're not that comfortable,
00:02:09.060 and they've got weird stuff sticking out,
00:02:10.240 and they don't always fit in your ear that well,
00:02:11.580 and they just want to have
00:02:12.320 a one-size-fits-all overpriced solution for everybody.
00:02:15.220 Then you get those really super-duper cheapo earbuds,
00:02:17.700 and they don't work, and they don't hold a charge,
00:02:19.300 and you can barely hear what you're trying to listen to.
00:02:21.340 Raycon hits the sweet spot.
00:02:22.860 They're super comfortable.
00:02:24.040 They're easy to take anywhere.
00:02:25.680 They are stylish.
00:02:26.900 They are discreet.
00:02:27.800 They're not, like, jumping out at you.
00:02:29.260 There are no dangling wires or stems.
00:02:32.060 Of course, they don't just look great.
00:02:33.400 They sound great, too.
00:02:34.180 Raycon offers their wireless earbuds
00:02:35.780 for everyone in a range of fun colors,
00:02:38.420 not just one, and they've got an unbeatable price.
00:02:40.440 They're really terrific.

00:03:04.060 Buyraycon.com slash Knowles.
00:03:07.300 Speaking of great deals,
00:03:09.980 President Trump got a great deal
00:03:11.320 on his two- or three-day swing through California.
00:03:14.300 He was just in Beverly Hills,
00:03:15.940 and I think the total he's taking out of that state
00:03:18.300 is 15 million bucks.
00:03:22.420 The big takeaway here for the left,
00:03:25.140 for the chattering class,
00:03:26.920 is that 15 million bucks didn't come from nowhere.
00:03:30.180 We talk about California as though it's just monolithic,
00:03:33.780 completely leftist.
00:03:34.920 There isn't a conservative anywhere.
00:03:36.220 I mean, I make jokes about it too, but there are.
00:03:38.620 I mean, we used to have a group out in Los Angeles
00:03:41.020 called Friends of Abe.
00:03:42.800 And Friends of Abe was Friends of Abraham Lincoln.
00:03:45.460 It was all the secret conservatives in Hollywood.
00:03:48.020 There were a lot of us.
00:03:50.000 The Obama administration tried to get our list
00:03:52.360 of our members.
00:03:53.460 Everyone wanted to know who they were
00:03:54.840 because if you asked anybody in the industry,
00:03:57.020 they'd say,
00:03:57.320 I don't know any conservatives out here.
00:03:58.660 I don't meet any conservatives in Hollywood.
00:04:00.520 And yet there were a lot.
00:04:01.680 They just were afraid of speaking up
00:04:03.220 because the left is so vindictive in California.
00:04:06.760 And I suppose this is what we mean by the phrase,
00:04:10.120 the silent majority.
00:04:11.960 Republicans, conservatives have been relying
00:04:13.480 on that silent majority since Nixon,
00:04:15.900 since Reagan, and all the way up through Trump.
00:04:18.740 There are different names for them.
00:04:19.740 The forgotten Americans,
00:04:21.060 the great men and women of the middle of the country,
00:04:22.820 whatever.
00:04:23.540 They're out there.
00:04:24.220 They're even all the way in California.
00:04:25.940 I think what Trump is seeing here is
00:04:29.180 he doesn't need to win California
00:04:31.820 for California to help him win in 2020.
00:04:35.380 You know, it's true that Hillary Clinton
00:04:36.840 won California in a landslide.
00:04:39.920 Trump got four and a half million votes there.
00:04:42.720 Four and a half million people voted
00:04:44.060 for President Trump in 2016.
00:04:45.860 That was the harder election to vote for Trump
00:04:47.980 because we didn't know what he was going to do.
00:04:49.900 We didn't know how he was going to behave.
00:04:51.720 He's exceeded pretty much everybody's expectations.
00:04:54.040 We were told the economy was going to collapse.
00:04:56.680 We were told we were going to go to World War III.
00:04:58.300 We were told all the terrible things would happen
00:04:59.740 if Trump got elected.
00:05:00.920 Instead, pretty much everything's improved.
00:05:03.120 The economy's great.
00:05:04.060 We have record low unemployment,
00:05:05.260 relative peace abroad,
00:05:06.400 renegotiated trade deals.
00:05:07.860 Things are looking pretty good.
00:05:09.160 How many votes is he going to get in 2020?
00:05:10.760 Enough to win?
00:05:12.140 Almost certainly not.
00:05:13.340 But it could galvanize some support for him.
00:05:16.600 Four and a half million votes in 2016.
00:05:18.120 He also raised $333 million in California in 2016.
00:05:22.720 That's a lot of money.
00:05:24.720 What this tells you is there are Trump supporters
00:05:27.420 in California.
00:05:29.060 I know probably most of them personally,
00:05:31.040 but there actually are.
00:05:33.100 And this isn't even a left-right thing.
00:05:36.760 Trump made a central pillar of his fundraising swing
00:05:40.180 through California, how the cities are deteriorating,
00:05:42.980 Los Angeles and San Francisco.
00:05:44.700 I live in L.A.
00:05:46.160 L.A. is falling apart.
00:05:47.960 Homelessness is up 16% in just one year in L.A.
00:05:51.140 San Francisco is falling apart.
00:05:53.200 There's drugs all over the street.
00:05:54.460 They're decriminalizing homeless behaviors there as well.
00:05:57.780 There's public defecation on the street in San Francisco.
00:06:00.880 You don't need to be some rock-ribbed Reaganite Republican
00:06:03.680 to say this isn't good.
00:06:05.780 Maybe we don't want this.
00:06:06.760 Maybe we want the state to move in another direction.
00:06:10.900 So I think Trump is very smart to bring this up,
00:06:14.300 to talk about this.
00:06:15.060 I mean, he was talking about L.A. homelessness.
00:06:16.540 Obviously, the president of the United States
00:06:17.940 is probably not going to fix a municipal problem
00:06:19.900 like L.A. homelessness.
00:06:21.340 But it's a symbol for the rot
00:06:22.960 that comes as a result of these leftist policies.
00:06:27.900 More importantly, even than that, I think,
00:06:29.980 and the reason why Trump probably should swing back
00:06:31.980 through Hollywood next time he gets a chance,
00:06:34.020 is just for the rest of the country,
00:06:36.240 he gets to use Hollywood as a foil
00:06:38.740 for him and for his policies.
00:06:41.480 That liberal, vindictive Hollywood can be the foil.
00:06:44.040 It's like the anti-Trump.
00:06:45.120 I mean, we saw just a few weeks ago the stars of Will & Grace,
00:06:48.540 Eric McCormick, and Deborah Messing,
00:06:50.860 who Trump then nicknamed Deborah the Mess Messing
00:06:53.520 in his very Trumpian way.
00:06:55.760 They came out and they called for the public naming
00:06:59.820 of any Trump supporter in Hollywood.
00:07:02.840 We're talking about McCarthyite blacklists.
00:07:04.980 I even hesitate to use the term McCarthyite
00:07:07.140 to describe what they were doing
00:07:08.560 because at least Joe McCarthy was going after communists.
00:07:11.620 At least Joe McCarthy was going after enemies of America.
00:07:13.900 Those two, Will & Grace,
00:07:15.500 were going after people who support the president.
00:07:18.180 They said explicitly,
00:07:20.100 we want you to name their names
00:07:21.620 so we know who not to work with.
00:07:24.020 We want you to name their names
00:07:25.280 so we know who to blacklist,
00:07:26.800 who to ruin their reputations,
00:07:28.660 ruin their careers,
00:07:29.420 take away their livelihood.
00:07:32.260 That is a bad look.
00:07:33.660 I mean, there was even some pushback
00:07:35.080 from liberal Hollywood about that.
00:07:36.580 And Trump gets to come out there
00:07:37.720 and one, trigger them,
00:07:39.540 I mean, whip them up into that frenzy,
00:07:41.220 and then show the rest of the country.
00:07:43.200 So you have genuinely a choice, not an echo.
00:07:46.380 You know, Hollywood has widespread reach.
00:07:48.980 They are exporters of culture.
00:07:51.520 And so, Will & Grace going out
00:07:54.600 and calling for a blacklist,
00:07:56.300 maybe it won't change votes in California.
00:07:58.180 It's almost certainly not going to flip California
00:07:59.680 to become some Republican state.
00:08:02.040 But that sort of vindictive leftism
00:08:04.460 is not going to play in Peoria.
00:08:06.340 That vindictive leftism is not going to play
00:08:08.520 in the middle of the country
00:08:09.520 where we're looking at them and saying,
00:08:11.380 gosh, if I have to choose,
00:08:12.600 every election is about a choice.
00:08:14.200 If I have to choose between Trump,
00:08:15.660 who's given us a pretty good economy,
00:08:17.280 you know, he's got some mean tweets,
00:08:18.820 but whatever, they're pretty funny,
00:08:20.560 and relative peace,
00:08:22.040 and he actually seems pretty normal,
00:08:23.740 and I get to choose between that
00:08:24.940 or these lunatics out there in Hollywood,
00:08:27.060 who am I going to pick?
00:08:27.820 Obviously, you're going to pick President Trump.
00:08:30.580 How does he do it?
00:08:31.940 He does it because he's a Hollywood figure.
00:08:33.560 The last guy to use California in this way
00:08:36.780 was another Hollywood guy,
00:08:38.320 which was Ronald Reagan.
00:08:39.300 You know, the conservative movement,
00:08:41.300 in many ways,
00:08:42.100 the post-war conservative movement,
00:08:43.840 came out of California.
00:08:45.120 You had Bill Buckley in New York,
00:08:46.460 and then you had Reagan in California,
00:08:48.540 and you had Orange County,
00:08:49.980 which used to be a Republican stronghold.
00:08:52.080 Now, after decades and decades
00:08:53.760 of specifically illegal immigration,
00:08:56.700 demographic changes have made California bluer.
00:09:01.080 But there are still a lot of conservatives here.
00:09:03.960 It's a gigantic state.
00:09:05.620 I mean, if you can lose a state in a landslide
00:09:07.820 and still get 4.5 million votes,
00:09:09.700 it's worth swinging by.
00:09:11.020 Trump knows that,
00:09:12.140 and I think he's going to play Hollywood
00:09:14.060 for all it's worth.
00:09:14.820 He's already done this with the media.
00:09:16.660 He's already done this
00:09:17.580 in a lot of other left-wing places,
00:09:19.340 and it's pretty wise.
00:09:20.520 So congratulations to him on the 15 million bucks.
00:09:23.120 Glad to hear that conservatives in California
00:09:26.100 are fired up about it.
00:09:27.580 That's what's going on here.
00:09:29.260 I mean, that's how the Republicans
00:09:30.940 are focusing their campaigns.
00:09:34.380 What is the left doing, though?
00:09:35.780 What are the Democrats doing?
00:09:37.100 We'll get in a little bit
00:09:38.160 to what some of the presidential candidates
00:09:39.760 are talking about.
00:09:41.080 But over on Capitol Hill,
00:09:42.940 while the Republican Party
00:09:44.660 is talking about homelessness,
00:09:46.080 talking about the drug crisis,
00:09:47.480 talking about the economy,
00:09:48.940 the left and Democrats
00:09:50.420 are talking about the sun monster.
00:09:53.020 They're talking about global warming.
00:09:54.440 They're saying global warming
00:09:55.220 is going to kill us
00:09:56.100 within 10 years or 12 years
00:09:57.460 or 14 months or whatever.
00:10:00.040 They're a big expert
00:10:01.100 that they've brought in
00:10:02.000 to testify on this question
00:10:03.240 of global warming
00:10:04.000 is not a scientist,
00:10:05.980 though they always tell us
00:10:06.780 about how we need to listen
00:10:07.860 to the scientists.
00:10:09.100 It's not a political philosophy
00:10:10.960 or a policymaker.
00:10:12.900 It's a 16-year-old Swedish girl
00:10:16.040 named Greta Thunberg,
00:10:18.500 16-year-old Swedish girl
00:10:19.760 who at age 15
00:10:21.120 became best known
00:10:23.160 for skipping school
00:10:24.600 to protest global warming
00:10:27.100 outside of the Swedish parliament.
00:10:29.600 What a racket.
00:10:30.600 Good job, kid.
00:10:32.280 Can you imagine 15 years old
00:10:33.900 you decide you want to skip school
00:10:35.180 and then you somehow convince
00:10:37.000 your parents and your teachers
00:10:38.600 and the whole country
00:10:39.700 and much of the leftist world
00:10:41.240 to applaud you for it?
00:10:42.800 Really, really smart.
00:10:44.800 She's obviously a firecracker.
00:10:47.980 She does that at 15.
00:10:49.060 Then she starts organizing
00:10:50.280 the school climate strike movement.
00:10:52.900 So she encourages other students
00:10:54.140 to skip school
00:10:54.900 to protest the weather.
00:10:56.720 Here is young 16-year-old Greta,
00:10:59.000 the great expert
00:11:01.640 that the Democrats are calling in,
00:11:03.540 talking about the perils
00:11:05.100 of climate change on Capitol Hill.
00:11:06.680 My name is Greta Thunberg.
00:11:11.900 I have not come to offer
00:11:14.280 any prepared remarks
00:11:16.520 at this hearing.
00:11:17.620 I am instead attaching my testimony.
00:11:23.400 It is the IPCC Special Report
00:11:25.900 on Global Warming
00:11:26.800 of 1.5 degrees Celsius,
00:11:29.580 the SR 1.5,
00:11:31.300 which was released
00:11:32.640 on October 8, 2018.
00:11:37.460 I am submitting this report
00:11:39.680 as my testimony
00:11:41.440 because I don't want you
00:11:43.460 to listen to me.
00:11:44.400 I want you to listen
00:11:45.820 to the scientists
00:11:46.780 and I want you to unite
00:11:50.160 behind the science
00:11:52.020 and then I want you
00:11:54.440 to take real action.
00:11:57.160 Thank you.
00:11:58.300 This testimony
00:11:59.340 is the perfect encapsulation
00:12:01.800 of leftist politics.
00:12:03.720 You have meaningless slogans
00:12:05.540 uttered without any arguments
00:12:07.420 by ignorant children
00:12:08.660 with no respect
00:12:09.840 for national borders.
00:12:10.840 That is leftism
00:12:13.100 in a nutshell.
00:12:15.340 You have this girl come.
00:12:16.760 She actually was very smart
00:12:17.840 not to give testimony
00:12:19.720 and not to give her own remarks.
00:12:21.180 Why?
00:12:21.380 Because she's a 16-year-old girl
00:12:22.460 and she doesn't know anything
00:12:23.400 and it would embarrass her.
00:12:24.840 So she knew, well,
00:12:26.060 not to do that
00:12:26.660 and so she said,
00:12:27.200 I'm here
00:12:27.560 and my remarks
00:12:29.180 are going to be
00:12:30.040 the IPCC report
00:12:31.660 on climate change.
00:12:35.060 Okay,
00:12:35.680 what does that mean?
00:12:38.340 Here's the report.
00:12:39.220 There are a few reports
00:12:40.600 from the International Panel
00:12:42.660 on Climate Change.
00:12:44.880 What is the implication of it?
00:12:46.700 What is the consequence of that?
00:12:48.400 I mean,
00:12:48.680 you have the left tell us
00:12:50.240 we need to base our politics
00:12:51.380 on science.
00:12:52.520 Politics is about
00:12:53.240 how we're going to live together.
00:12:54.220 It's about what we should do.
00:12:55.240 It's not just making observations
00:12:56.960 about the world.
00:12:58.020 It's interpreting the world.
00:12:59.580 It's interpreting those facts
00:13:00.620 and science and observations
00:13:02.020 and then deciding
00:13:04.100 what to do with that
00:13:05.280 and what the effect of that
00:13:06.160 will be on how we govern ourselves.
00:13:07.600 So you can't just attach
00:13:08.960 some scientific study
00:13:10.360 even if it's a highly politicized one
00:13:11.900 like the IPCC report
00:13:13.240 and say,
00:13:13.620 okay, here's your government.
00:13:15.000 That's not good enough.
00:13:16.520 We're not just a machine.
00:13:17.980 There's not just a clear answer.
00:13:19.580 What we do in deliberative bodies,
00:13:22.260 what we do in self-government
00:13:23.480 is interpret the world
00:13:25.360 and then decide
00:13:25.900 how we want to govern ourselves.
00:13:29.320 This is what the left does though.
00:13:31.460 These meaningless slogans,
00:13:33.160 these constant promotion
00:13:34.420 of ignorant children,
00:13:35.540 some of them very overgrown children,
00:13:36.900 no respect for national borders.
00:13:38.680 Why are we listening
00:13:39.120 to the Swedish girl?
00:13:39.940 You couldn't even find
00:13:40.520 a 16-year-old American girl
00:13:41.760 to talk about this?
00:13:42.700 No, of course not.
00:13:43.900 And empty and counterproductive stunts.
00:13:47.500 So the only reason
00:13:48.580 you might have heard of this girl,
00:13:49.660 Greta Thunberg,
00:13:50.800 is because she just pulled
00:13:53.020 another big stunt.
00:13:54.660 This was only about
00:13:55.220 a month or two ago.
00:13:56.440 She took a transatlantic voyage
00:13:59.140 on a zero-carbon yacht.
00:14:02.460 What is a zero-carbon yacht?
00:14:03.800 I don't know.
00:14:05.240 The zero-carbon yacht
00:14:06.420 is a ship that she took
00:14:09.520 across the Atlantic Ocean
00:14:10.580 that was not going
00:14:12.480 to pollute the environment.
00:14:13.500 Even though the ship's
00:14:14.160 made of plastic,
00:14:14.880 so obviously the construction
00:14:15.740 of it hurt the environment.
00:14:17.280 And it's four million pounds,
00:14:19.360 so you're looking at, what,
00:14:20.080 six million dollars or more
00:14:21.520 for this boat.
00:14:22.700 I mean, it was just a really nice boat,
00:14:24.320 60-foot Milizia II yacht.
00:14:27.180 It was fitted out with solar panels
00:14:29.200 and underwater turbines
00:14:30.520 that produced the electricity on board,
00:14:32.360 so it wasn't burning any fossil fuels.
00:14:34.820 It wasn't ostensibly
00:14:35.760 harming the environment.
00:14:36.880 So she said she was going
00:14:37.860 to take this carbon-free boat trip
00:14:41.300 across the Atlantic
00:14:42.400 to raise awareness
00:14:43.440 about climate change.
00:14:45.200 The trouble for this stunt, though,
00:14:46.920 is it later came out
00:14:48.340 that while she did take
00:14:50.140 the zero-carbon yacht
00:14:51.140 across the water,
00:14:52.060 so she wasn't polluting
00:14:53.380 the environment
00:14:53.900 by flying on an airplane,
00:14:55.180 for instance,
00:14:56.220 two people had to fly out
00:14:58.220 to America on a jet
00:14:59.820 to take the ship back to Europe.
00:15:02.940 So it wasn't just,
00:15:03.500 if she had just flown to America
00:15:04.580 on an airplane,
00:15:05.280 she would have had
00:15:06.320 much less of an effect
00:15:08.240 on the environment
00:15:09.040 than if she did
00:15:09.680 this whole big stunt.
00:15:10.500 Two people fly out
00:15:11.220 to take the boat back to Europe,
00:15:12.320 and then there were other reports
00:15:13.520 that two more people flew out
00:15:14.980 to meet up with Greta.
00:15:15.900 Why?
00:15:16.120 Because she's a 16-year-old girl.
00:15:17.320 She needs handlers.
00:15:18.120 She's not going to go
00:15:18.740 across the Atlantic Ocean
00:15:20.140 and hang out in America
00:15:21.780 all by herself.
00:15:22.740 So this stunt,
00:15:24.980 in the end,
00:15:25.580 I suppose it raised awareness,
00:15:26.960 but it didn't raise awareness
00:15:27.740 for global warming.
00:15:28.820 It raised awareness
00:15:29.720 about the hypocrisy
00:15:31.280 of environmental activists.
00:15:33.020 Again,
00:15:33.260 I don't really blame her
00:15:34.020 for this.
00:15:34.640 16-year-olds do this
00:15:35.780 all the time.
00:15:36.760 Teenagers are constantly
00:15:38.900 pulling grandiose stunts
00:15:41.080 and having too much self-regard.
00:15:43.020 But I do blame the adults.
00:15:46.480 One, for exploiting her,
00:15:47.900 and two,
00:15:48.240 for encouraging this nonsense.
00:15:49.920 It occurred to me
00:15:50.560 climate change
00:15:51.580 is the perfect issue
00:15:54.220 for teenagers
00:15:55.040 to get upset about.
00:15:56.620 It's the absolute perfect issue
00:15:57.980 because it fulfills
00:15:58.880 everything teenagers
00:16:00.200 are longing for.
00:16:01.320 That grandiosity,
00:16:02.660 that outside self-regard,
00:16:04.060 and even religious longings.
00:16:05.740 You know,
00:16:05.920 we're seeing increasingly,
00:16:07.540 this is certainly true
00:16:08.240 in Sweden
00:16:08.640 as it is here in America,
00:16:10.420 that teenagers,
00:16:11.400 Gen Z,
00:16:12.100 and millennials
00:16:12.640 were raised
00:16:13.500 without religion.
00:16:14.820 But everybody
00:16:15.480 has religious longings.
00:16:16.920 Everybody has a sense
00:16:17.840 of the divine,
00:16:18.500 a sense of purpose
00:16:19.200 in the world,
00:16:20.380 a hope that what they're doing
00:16:22.640 has meaning,
00:16:23.380 that their life has meaning.
00:16:25.040 And so,
00:16:25.940 because politics
00:16:27.820 has become religion
00:16:28.720 for the left,
00:16:30.300 environmentalism,
00:16:31.700 climate change,
00:16:32.580 fulfills those longings.
00:16:34.260 And for teenagers
00:16:35.300 to come out and say,
00:16:36.320 I'm going to save the world,
00:16:38.260 that's all you ever want to do.
00:16:39.640 I mean,
00:16:40.720 when you're a teenager,
00:16:42.440 you feel that you don't have power,
00:16:43.700 you feel that you're coming
00:16:44.460 into your own,
00:16:45.080 but you're being held back
00:16:45.920 by rules,
00:16:46.620 by your parents,
00:16:47.480 by your schooling,
00:16:48.380 by not being able
00:16:48.980 to fulfill your grand dreams.
00:16:50.380 And all you want to do
00:16:51.660 is go out and say,
00:16:52.320 we're going to make a difference,
00:16:53.060 we're going to change the world,
00:16:54.040 they're going to get famous,
00:16:54.880 they're going to have influence.
00:16:57.240 Climate change fulfills
00:16:58.160 all of that,
00:16:59.880 at least in one's mind.
00:17:02.380 That's fine.
00:17:03.000 Teenagers want to do that.
00:17:03.940 Teenagers do stupid things
00:17:04.920 all the time.
00:17:05.360 It's far less appropriate,
00:17:06.940 though,
00:17:07.200 for adults
00:17:08.280 to get all revved up
00:17:09.860 about this.
00:17:11.160 So she comes out there,
00:17:12.160 she does as good a job
00:17:13.340 as she possibly could,
00:17:14.180 I think,
00:17:14.480 testifying on Capitol Hill,
00:17:15.680 and she says,
00:17:16.100 I've attached the UN report.
00:17:17.220 Why is she attached
00:17:17.740 the UN report?
00:17:18.320 Because she has nothing to say.
00:17:20.640 The more and more you hear
00:17:21.620 the left say,
00:17:22.060 we need to listen
00:17:22.580 to the scientists.
00:17:24.240 You say,
00:17:24.640 well,
00:17:24.880 then how come
00:17:25.340 the chief spokesman
00:17:26.160 on this issue
00:17:26.640 is Al Gore?
00:17:27.340 How come the other spokesman
00:17:28.280 on this issue
00:17:28.820 is this Swedish teenager?
00:17:31.080 I don't really hear
00:17:31.820 a whole lot
00:17:32.220 from the scientists.
00:17:33.080 And by the way,
00:17:33.720 government isn't
00:17:34.720 a scientific endeavor.
00:17:36.380 Politics isn't
00:17:36.980 a scientific endeavor.
00:17:40.240 Politics is essentially
00:17:41.340 about speech,
00:17:42.200 about persuasion,
00:17:43.200 about values,
00:17:44.320 about ethics,
00:17:45.540 about virtue,
00:17:46.620 about how we want
00:17:47.480 to live together.
00:17:49.280 I mean,
00:17:49.500 these are,
00:17:51.020 again,
00:17:52.100 I suppose the ultimate reason
00:17:54.060 why it was good
00:17:54.480 to have a 16-year-old
00:17:55.260 on this issue
00:17:55.760 is because it's
00:17:56.720 a fantasy issue.
00:17:57.940 I mean,
00:17:58.120 every day we're told
00:17:58.860 we have less and less time
00:17:59.720 to live.
00:18:00.500 AOC says Miami
00:18:01.440 is not going to exist
00:18:02.460 within two years.
00:18:03.940 So that's fine.
00:18:05.400 They're talking about
00:18:06.040 these fantasy issues.
00:18:07.120 But how is that going
00:18:08.420 to play in 2020?
00:18:09.960 Because if they had
00:18:12.960 something real
00:18:13.620 to campaign on,
00:18:14.800 I think they would.
00:18:16.080 I think this focus
00:18:17.480 on the climate change
00:18:18.800 or on AR-15s
00:18:20.940 or on these really
00:18:22.660 niche issues
00:18:23.380 that they're going
00:18:23.840 very extreme,
00:18:25.000 it's coming from a place
00:18:26.580 of not having
00:18:27.400 anything else
00:18:28.400 to run on.
00:18:30.820 Can't run on the economy.
00:18:31.940 Can't run on war.
00:18:32.880 Can't run on suffering.
00:18:35.360 Can't run on unemployment.
00:18:36.780 Can't run on any
00:18:37.620 of those things.
00:18:38.640 Materially and just
00:18:40.020 from a very basic level,
00:18:41.380 things are going
00:18:41.800 pretty well.
00:18:42.540 You see this not just
00:18:43.860 on climate change.
00:18:45.000 You see this even
00:18:45.720 on other long-standing
00:18:46.940 issues like gun control.
00:18:48.400 You now have
00:18:49.060 Democratic presidential
00:18:50.080 candidates openly
00:18:51.520 calling for gun
00:18:53.620 confiscation.
00:18:55.700 Kamala Harris has come
00:18:56.720 out.
00:18:56.880 She's joined Beto O'Rourke
00:18:58.240 and a number of others
00:18:59.460 in saying we need
00:19:01.040 to not only ban
00:19:02.640 assault weapons,
00:19:03.480 not only stop producing
00:19:04.420 them, not only stop
00:19:05.280 selling them,
00:19:05.880 not only buy them back,
00:19:07.040 we need mandatory
00:19:08.620 buybacks,
00:19:09.880 which is an
00:19:10.260 unbelievable Orwellian
00:19:11.940 politically correct phrase,
00:19:13.160 which is a euphemism
00:19:14.460 for stealing.
00:19:15.280 Here's Kamala Harris
00:19:16.180 talking about how
00:19:17.040 she's going to steal
00:19:17.540 your guns.
00:19:18.620 Assault weapons
00:19:19.520 are weapons of war.
00:19:21.820 Be clear about this.
00:19:23.380 Assault weapons
00:19:24.020 are designed
00:19:25.040 to kill a lot
00:19:26.840 of people quickly.
00:19:28.620 There is no
00:19:29.620 reason that
00:19:31.000 they should exist
00:19:32.180 on the streets
00:19:33.040 of a civil society.
00:19:35.060 The assault weapon term,
00:19:37.200 which is a made-up term
00:19:38.120 from just the last
00:19:38.760 30 years,
00:19:39.520 I think this is the
00:19:40.340 one appropriate
00:19:41.740 use of it
00:19:42.540 because right now
00:19:43.420 Kamala Harris
00:19:44.160 is taking a flamethrower
00:19:45.760 to a field
00:19:46.740 of straw men.
00:19:49.140 This is how you know
00:19:50.440 that the left
00:19:51.060 doesn't have an argument
00:19:52.100 on gun control
00:19:53.300 or global warming
00:19:54.100 or really anything else.
00:19:55.560 The way that you know
00:19:56.480 that they don't have
00:19:57.000 an argument on this
00:19:57.840 is they keep using
00:19:59.300 all these euphemisms.
00:20:00.720 Assault weapons,
00:20:02.120 mandatory buyback,
00:20:03.660 weapons of war.
00:20:04.460 What is an assault weapon?
00:20:07.780 Conservatives ask this
00:20:08.660 all the time
00:20:09.180 because the definition
00:20:10.320 changes every single day
00:20:11.440 because it's a made-up term
00:20:12.680 from the 1980s
00:20:14.000 that the left
00:20:14.840 started to use
00:20:15.960 to confuse people
00:20:17.060 about semi-automatic rifles
00:20:18.640 where you pull the trigger
00:20:19.440 once and one round
00:20:20.300 comes out
00:20:20.800 and they wanted them
00:20:21.620 to conflate that
00:20:22.220 with fully automatic weapons
00:20:23.460 which have been illegal
00:20:24.580 in the United States,
00:20:25.620 more or less illegal
00:20:26.540 for decades and decades.
00:20:29.300 All weapons
00:20:30.320 are assault weapons.
00:20:33.200 100% of weapons
00:20:34.660 are assault weapons.
00:20:36.240 Even perfectly innocuous things
00:20:37.900 can become assault weapons
00:20:38.900 if you use them
00:20:39.460 to assault people.
00:20:40.380 The purpose of weapons
00:20:41.260 is assault.
00:20:42.720 That's what they're there for.
00:20:43.580 They're not there
00:20:44.040 just to look really good
00:20:44.940 mounted over your fireplace.
00:20:46.360 They're not there
00:20:47.120 so that you can just clean it,
00:20:48.700 you know,
00:20:48.960 sitting on your front porch
00:20:50.220 spitting tabacchi
00:20:51.140 into a spittoon.
00:20:52.300 They're there
00:20:52.860 to assault people.
00:20:53.880 They're there
00:20:54.100 to shoot people.
00:20:55.020 They're there
00:20:55.320 to kill people.
00:20:56.680 Weapons of war.
00:20:58.440 All weapons
00:20:59.560 are weapons of war.
00:21:01.760 The chief end
00:21:02.540 of weaponry
00:21:03.220 is war.
00:21:04.120 It's about inflicting
00:21:05.160 violence
00:21:05.900 on other people.
00:21:08.900 What about mandatory
00:21:10.000 gun buybacks?
00:21:10.980 This is my favorite one.
00:21:12.120 This is the one
00:21:12.560 that has really
00:21:13.020 cropped up over time.
00:21:13.880 First of all,
00:21:14.460 even if it were
00:21:15.000 just a buyback,
00:21:15.860 forget the mandatory
00:21:16.400 for a second,
00:21:17.400 even if Beto
00:21:19.060 and Kamala Harris
00:21:20.140 were talking
00:21:20.460 just about buybacks,
00:21:22.100 the government
00:21:23.660 can't issue
00:21:25.020 a gun buyback
00:21:26.240 because I didn't
00:21:27.020 buy my gun
00:21:27.640 from the government
00:21:28.200 in the first place.
00:21:29.500 I bought my gun
00:21:30.220 from a store.
00:21:31.360 I guess the store
00:21:31.920 could offer to buy back
00:21:32.700 my gun,
00:21:33.120 but the government
00:21:33.720 cannot.
00:21:34.380 I didn't get my gun
00:21:35.180 from the government.
00:21:35.820 I got my gun
00:21:36.540 to protect myself
00:21:37.560 against the government
00:21:38.320 if things ever go crazy
00:21:40.280 and I got to get
00:21:40.800 out of Dodge.
00:21:42.540 Then you add on
00:21:43.380 the mandatory part
00:21:44.400 and it gets even
00:21:44.940 more ridiculous.
00:21:46.200 So it's not a buyback.
00:21:47.740 The government
00:21:48.200 basically just wants
00:21:48.760 to take your weapons
00:21:49.460 away and they're
00:21:49.900 offering to pay you
00:21:50.560 a little bit for it.
00:21:52.200 When you add
00:21:52.720 mandatory to it,
00:21:53.820 it's no longer
00:21:54.440 even buying.
00:21:55.620 I mean,
00:21:55.900 buying implies
00:21:57.060 the free exchange
00:21:58.000 of goods and services.
00:21:59.140 It implies that
00:21:59.620 you're purchasing something.
00:22:00.600 Okay, I want this good
00:22:01.660 and so I'm going to
00:22:02.340 part with my money
00:22:03.040 to get that good.
00:22:03.720 When you add in
00:22:04.680 mandatory buyback,
00:22:07.080 that's just a euphemism
00:22:08.380 for theft,
00:22:10.480 for stealing,
00:22:11.440 for confiscation.
00:22:13.300 But they don't want
00:22:14.060 to use those terms.
00:22:14.860 You know,
00:22:15.160 the left always does this.
00:22:16.400 Instead of talking
00:22:16.960 about killing babies,
00:22:17.920 they talk about
00:22:18.620 protecting women's
00:22:20.300 health care.
00:22:22.900 It has nothing to do
00:22:24.160 with the actual act
00:22:24.980 which is killing babies.
00:22:26.820 But they use
00:22:28.120 these euphemisms
00:22:28.800 because they know
00:22:29.280 the reality of it
00:22:30.000 is too unpopular
00:22:30.740 and in this case
00:22:31.500 the reality of it
00:22:32.340 is unconstitutional.
00:22:33.720 We have a second
00:22:34.800 amendment in this country
00:22:35.980 but if you have
00:22:37.280 mandatory buybacks
00:22:38.240 there's no such thing
00:22:39.140 as a second amendment.
00:22:41.000 Now it doesn't really matter
00:22:42.280 what Kamala Harris
00:22:43.140 and Beto O'Rourke say
00:22:44.140 in and of itself
00:22:45.180 because their campaigns
00:22:46.020 are going absolutely nowhere
00:22:47.320 and they're going nowhere
00:22:49.560 actually in part
00:22:50.340 because they keep
00:22:50.840 flip-flopping
00:22:51.400 for political convenience
00:22:52.480 on all of these
00:22:53.900 important issues.
00:22:54.820 But just listen to it.
00:22:55.700 Listen to Beto O'Rourke
00:22:56.700 just two or three months ago
00:22:58.100 saying he's not going
00:22:59.600 to take away your guns
00:23:00.520 compared to Beto O'Rourke
00:23:02.160 just a week ago
00:23:02.920 saying hell yes
00:23:04.500 we're going to take
00:23:05.180 your AR-15s.
00:23:06.480 Are you proposing
00:23:07.320 taking away their guns
00:23:08.620 and how would this work?
00:23:10.160 I am.
00:23:11.000 If it's a weapon
00:23:11.960 that was designed
00:23:12.760 to kill people
00:23:13.740 on a battlefield
00:23:15.300 if the high-impact
00:23:20.760 high-velocity round
00:23:21.820 when it hits your body
00:23:22.840 shreds everything
00:23:24.380 inside of your body
00:23:25.780 because it was designed
00:23:26.660 to do that
00:23:27.300 so that you would
00:23:28.100 bleed to death
00:23:28.720 on a battlefield
00:23:29.480 and not be able to get up
00:23:30.480 and kill one of our soldiers
00:23:31.880 when we see that being used
00:23:33.740 against children
00:23:35.120 and in Odessa
00:23:36.700 I met the mother
00:23:37.680 of a 15-year-old girl
00:23:39.200 who was shot by an AR-15
00:23:41.000 and that mother
00:23:42.140 watched her bleed to death
00:23:43.360 over the course of an hour
00:23:44.700 because so many other people
00:23:46.180 were shot by that AR-15
00:23:47.620 in Odessa
00:23:48.660 in Midland
00:23:49.120 there weren't enough ambulances
00:23:50.200 to get to them
00:23:51.000 in time
00:23:51.860 hell yes
00:23:52.740 we're going to take
00:23:53.340 your AR-15
00:23:54.140 your AK-47
00:23:55.320 we're not going to allow it
00:23:56.740 to be used against
00:23:57.680 our fellow Americans
00:23:59.120 anymore
00:23:59.740 you may not have listened
00:24:01.860 to the last part
00:24:03.380 of that clip
00:24:03.880 because he loses you
00:24:04.960 in the first sentence
00:24:06.120 with one of the stupidest
00:24:07.840 statements I've yet heard
00:24:09.240 in this 2020 campaign
00:24:10.360 which is really saying
00:24:11.120 something
00:24:11.440 he says
00:24:12.760 yeah we're going to
00:24:14.040 ban the guns
00:24:14.840 if the guns were designed
00:24:16.140 to kill people
00:24:16.780 if the weapons were designed
00:24:17.700 to kill people
00:24:18.320 we're going to ban them
00:24:19.540 what does he think
00:24:22.000 guns are for?
00:24:23.740 what do these people think
00:24:24.960 even if they
00:24:25.520 sometimes
00:24:26.220 they twist what
00:24:28.020 the second amendment is
00:24:28.800 the second amendment is
00:24:29.480 about protecting you
00:24:30.460 and your rights
00:24:30.980 and your freedom
00:24:31.440 but they'll say
00:24:33.940 well it's really for hunting
00:24:34.980 it's not
00:24:35.640 there's no
00:24:36.360 the framers didn't add it
00:24:37.380 to the bill of rights
00:24:38.060 to protect your right
00:24:38.800 to go shoot a bunny rabbit
00:24:39.760 but even if it were
00:24:41.280 they killed the bunny rabbit
00:24:43.980 when you go hunting
00:24:45.040 you kill the animal
00:24:46.140 the purpose of guns
00:24:47.740 is to kill people
00:24:49.460 and to kill animals
00:24:51.060 but the reason I bring up Beto
00:24:53.920 is because of the flip
00:24:55.680 how quick this was
00:24:56.720 this is Beto just a few months ago
00:24:58.100 saying I'm not going to take your guns
00:24:59.660 and then Beto a week or so ago
00:25:02.640 saying hell yes
00:25:04.040 I'm going to take your guns
00:25:04.820 to be clear
00:25:05.840 they should have them
00:25:06.700 if you purchase that AR-15
00:25:08.080 if you own it
00:25:09.020 keep it
00:25:09.680 continue to use it responsibly
00:25:11.900 hell yes
00:25:12.580 we're going to take your AR-15
00:25:13.980 your AK-47
00:25:14.980 hell yes
00:25:16.700 we're going to take your AR-15
00:25:19.440 your AK-47
00:25:21.580 there it is
00:25:23.520 and it just teaches
00:25:24.620 republicans not to trust
00:25:26.540 democrats on this issue
00:25:27.580 and the next time
00:25:28.720 that the democrats
00:25:29.660 make fun of us
00:25:30.400 and they say
00:25:30.620 we're not going to take your guns
00:25:31.760 stop it you catastrophists
00:25:33.460 we're not going to take your guns
00:25:34.960 you point to Beto O'Rourke
00:25:36.320 you say this isn't
00:25:37.160 look he's kind of a loser
00:25:38.280 he's not going to have
00:25:39.940 a major influence
00:25:40.640 on American politics
00:25:41.480 but the guy was
00:25:42.560 a top tier senate candidate
00:25:44.300 and he lost
00:25:45.000 and for a while
00:25:46.240 he was a top tier
00:25:47.020 presidential candidate
00:25:47.980 among the democrats
00:25:48.880 and then he wasn't
00:25:50.420 but you know
00:25:50.980 he had the vanity fair
00:25:52.000 cover spread
00:25:53.000 the democrats were talking
00:25:54.700 about him as though
00:25:55.260 he was the next Obama
00:25:56.120 he's still on that
00:25:56.920 debate stage for some reason
00:25:58.080 very prominent democrat
00:25:59.900 who did it within just
00:26:01.980 two or three months
00:26:02.700 completely flipped
00:26:03.440 said
00:26:03.740 he's going to take
00:26:05.260 your guns
00:26:05.880 doesn't play
00:26:07.080 very well
00:26:08.080 you know
00:26:08.520 people know
00:26:10.600 people get it
00:26:12.000 the silent majority
00:26:13.900 I guess
00:26:14.580 I guess we can't call it
00:26:15.660 the silent majority
00:26:16.440 like when we're talking
00:26:17.300 about Trump supporters
00:26:18.020 in California
00:26:18.620 but you could at least
00:26:19.600 call it the silent plurality
00:26:20.820 you could at least
00:26:21.320 call it a large group
00:26:23.800 of voters
00:26:24.580 who just see through it
00:26:26.420 you know
00:26:26.640 we were talking
00:26:27.260 earlier this week
00:26:28.140 about the political
00:26:29.120 philosopher James Burnham's
00:26:30.480 ten rules
00:26:31.540 ten laws
00:26:32.320 and the first one
00:26:33.220 is everybody knows
00:26:33.980 everything
00:26:34.380 people know
00:26:35.560 the AR-15s
00:26:36.640 aren't the problem
00:26:37.420 so few people
00:26:39.840 relatively
00:26:40.420 are killed each year
00:26:41.440 with AR-15s
00:26:42.560 you are between
00:26:43.320 22 and 23 times
00:26:44.860 as likely
00:26:45.360 to be killed
00:26:46.200 with a handgun
00:26:47.040 as you are
00:26:47.900 with a rifle
00:26:48.520 of any kind
00:26:49.180 any kind of rifle
00:26:49.960 including
00:26:50.560 the dread AR-15
00:26:52.160 or AK-47
00:26:53.620 people know this
00:26:54.920 and this is especially
00:26:57.100 true of people
00:26:57.960 who actually know
00:26:58.960 what weapons are
00:26:59.860 who actually have
00:27:00.520 some experience
00:27:01.100 with guns
00:27:01.640 I mean it's always
00:27:02.540 so ironic
00:27:03.320 that the people
00:27:04.100 who are trying
00:27:04.440 to take your guns
00:27:05.240 trying to abolish
00:27:06.420 the second amendment
00:27:07.380 through brute force
00:27:08.880 who are trying to
00:27:09.900 regulate all of your
00:27:11.020 weapons
00:27:11.360 don't actually know
00:27:12.520 anything about it
00:27:13.220 it's actually good
00:27:13.860 for us
00:27:14.300 it's good for gun owners
00:27:15.300 it gives us an advantage
00:27:16.200 because they write up
00:27:17.280 some stupid law
00:27:18.100 and they say
00:27:18.900 okay now we got it
00:27:19.960 now we'll take away
00:27:20.560 your guns
00:27:20.920 and then you make
00:27:21.600 like two modifications
00:27:22.460 to the gun
00:27:23.000 and then you're
00:27:23.360 absolutely fine
00:27:24.140 I mean they just
00:27:24.580 did that in California
00:27:25.840 they don't know
00:27:27.380 what they're talking about
00:27:28.560 he says we're not
00:27:29.120 going to ban
00:27:29.460 any of the guns
00:27:29.980 except the ones
00:27:30.520 designed to kill people
00:27:31.460 oh okay great
00:27:33.800 that sounds good
00:27:34.440 I mean I was on
00:27:35.080 a Fox show last night
00:27:36.000 I was on Martha McCallum's
00:27:36.920 show with Juan Williams
00:27:38.340 I like Juan Williams
00:27:39.400 very much
00:27:39.980 he's a very intelligent guy
00:27:41.260 he doesn't know
00:27:42.040 anything about guns
00:27:42.780 and so he mentioned
00:27:44.340 on this show
00:27:45.040 how we need to ban
00:27:46.240 AR-47s
00:27:47.640 I don't bring this up
00:27:48.480 just to make fun of
00:27:49.360 Juan for not knowing
00:27:50.720 a lot about guns
00:27:51.500 I think he's actually
00:27:52.560 representative of a lot
00:27:53.780 of people on the left
00:27:54.680 in this country
00:27:55.280 of course there's no such
00:27:56.340 gun as an AR-47
00:27:57.880 there are AK-47
00:27:59.100 there's an AR-15
00:28:00.480 but the left
00:28:01.900 especially the elite left
00:28:03.720 especially the chattering class
00:28:05.020 especially the leftist politicians
00:28:06.740 they have a completely
00:28:08.640 different view on guns
00:28:09.980 than people who actually
00:28:11.140 use them
00:28:11.620 so they just see
00:28:12.520 big scary gun
00:28:13.660 looks like
00:28:14.800 a military gun
00:28:16.080 looks like
00:28:17.040 an automatic weapon
00:28:18.060 bad
00:28:18.860 ban it
00:28:19.520 everyone's going to
00:28:20.340 agree with us
00:28:21.140 they're not
00:28:23.280 they're not
00:28:24.400 everybody knows
00:28:25.700 and we're talking about
00:28:27.240 my ironic corollary
00:28:28.700 to everybody knows
00:28:29.540 which is everybody
00:28:30.660 knows everything
00:28:31.300 and nobody knows anything
00:28:32.740 specifically
00:28:33.600 the people who don't know
00:28:35.400 that everybody knows
00:28:36.160 everything
00:28:36.580 are the ones
00:28:37.500 who don't know anything
00:28:38.360 and that is disproportionately
00:28:40.200 the self-appointed elite
00:28:42.300 the chattering class
00:28:43.240 the democratic candidates
00:28:44.580 for president
00:28:45.460 they're not so clever
00:28:47.480 those guys
00:28:48.060 they're not so smart
00:28:49.240 believe it or not
00:28:50.440 the hoi polloi
00:28:51.260 the proletariat
00:28:52.120 the masses of Americans
00:28:53.500 are usually
00:28:55.160 a little bit cleverer
00:28:56.340 a little bit smarter
00:28:57.120 a little bit wiser
00:28:57.920 a little bit more knowledgeable
00:28:58.920 than those
00:28:59.960 self-appointed elites
00:29:01.080 they know
00:29:02.060 what guns are for
00:29:03.080 they know why they have guns
00:29:04.240 they know
00:29:04.640 why they have
00:29:05.580 a second amendment
00:29:07.140 and the issue
00:29:08.640 is not
00:29:09.500 rifle regulations
00:29:11.120 we've had rifle regulations
00:29:12.380 before
00:29:12.840 we'll have rifle regulations
00:29:14.280 again
00:29:14.680 I don't favor
00:29:16.120 most rifle regulations
00:29:17.320 I think most of them
00:29:18.140 are unconstitutional
00:29:19.020 that's a fair matter
00:29:20.540 for public debate
00:29:21.420 the issue here
00:29:22.760 is the mandatory buyback
00:29:24.420 people know
00:29:25.400 their constitutional rights
00:29:26.760 people do not
00:29:28.160 want the government
00:29:29.500 to come in
00:29:30.120 and steal
00:29:30.760 their property
00:29:31.760 people do not want
00:29:32.840 the government
00:29:33.220 to come in
00:29:33.740 kick in the door
00:29:34.400 and take away
00:29:35.280 their right
00:29:35.920 to defend themselves
00:29:37.140 that is a
00:29:38.020 massive overreach
00:29:39.620 it's a massive overreach
00:29:40.880 for the candidates
00:29:41.540 who are pushing it
00:29:42.600 and obviously
00:29:43.260 it would be a massive
00:29:43.920 overreach for the government
00:29:44.920 and you don't need
00:29:45.740 to be a gun enthusiast
00:29:46.860 to oppose that
00:29:48.200 I mean it's
00:29:49.500 it's the same thing
00:29:50.300 of Trump in California
00:29:51.700 I mean somehow
00:29:52.500 the left is making
00:29:53.920 even Donald Trump
00:29:55.380 appealing to many liberals
00:29:57.040 in California
00:29:57.760 even many liberals
00:29:59.340 in Hollywood
00:29:59.820 called out
00:30:00.440 Will and Grace
00:30:01.480 Debra Messing
00:30:02.180 and Eric McCormick
00:30:02.900 for calling for a blacklist
00:30:05.100 many liberals
00:30:06.160 in California
00:30:06.880 hate the homelessness
00:30:08.080 crisis
00:30:08.820 because of democratic
00:30:10.060 mismanagement
00:30:10.720 in that city
00:30:11.300 many liberals
00:30:12.380 in California
00:30:12.960 hate the drug epidemic
00:30:14.320 and the needles
00:30:14.840 on the street
00:30:15.360 and the public defecation
00:30:16.420 you don't need
00:30:19.000 to be a conservative
00:30:19.720 to oppose
00:30:20.460 public defecation
00:30:22.160 I think that's
00:30:23.120 it's an issue
00:30:23.620 that crosses party lines
00:30:24.880 left right and center
00:30:25.760 you can oppose that
00:30:26.620 it's the same thing
00:30:27.940 with these guys
00:30:28.380 you don't need to be
00:30:28.880 a rock ribbed conservative
00:30:29.900 a republican
00:30:30.760 a gun owner
00:30:31.620 a gun nut
00:30:32.260 like they call us
00:30:33.320 to oppose
00:30:35.220 the government
00:30:35.720 coming in
00:30:36.260 and stealing your property
00:30:37.200 and taking away
00:30:37.820 your constitutional rights
00:30:38.920 and the more
00:30:39.840 they keep this up
00:30:40.780 the better republican
00:30:41.900 chances are
00:30:42.560 in 2020
00:30:43.440 the more they keep
00:30:44.500 this up
00:30:44.940 the more that
00:30:45.640 silent majority
00:30:46.460 or at least
00:30:47.080 that silent plurality
00:30:48.160 sits there and says
00:30:48.940 no
00:30:49.280 this is too far
00:30:50.680 I can't let this happen
00:30:51.620 I don't like the mean tweets
00:30:52.620 but I'm going to have
00:30:53.160 to vote for that guy
00:30:53.900 we actually got some
00:30:55.880 even more good news
00:30:57.180 on the culture
00:30:58.280 this week
00:30:58.700 so there's some good news
00:31:00.540 and there's some bad news
00:31:01.200 we'll start with the good news
00:31:02.020 first
00:31:02.280 the number of abortions
00:31:04.980 in the United States
00:31:07.760 has fallen to the lowest level
00:31:09.880 since 1973
00:31:12.060 we will examine
00:31:13.200 why that is
00:31:14.840 we will examine
00:31:15.800 because there's
00:31:16.240 there's a good reason
00:31:17.380 why there is
00:31:17.800 there's kind of a bad reason
00:31:18.860 as to why that's happening
00:31:20.060 but we may be turning
00:31:21.740 a corner on abortion
00:31:22.500 we'll get to that
00:31:23.000 then some bad news
00:31:23.700 for criminal justice
00:31:24.540 from the New York Times
00:31:25.680 to Pope Francis
00:31:26.400 sometimes it's difficult
00:31:27.440 to tell the difference
00:31:28.140 between those two things
00:31:29.000 and then
00:31:29.880 an embarrassing report
00:31:31.900 on millennials
00:31:32.440 why because today's
00:31:33.400 a day that ends
00:31:33.880 and why
00:31:34.200 they seem to come out
00:31:34.900 every single day
00:31:35.420 but you got to go
00:31:36.000 to dailywire.com
00:31:36.900 10 bucks a month
00:31:37.740 $100 for an annual membership
00:31:39.160 you get me
00:31:40.000 you get the Andrew Klavan show
00:31:41.120 you get the Ben Shapiro show
00:31:42.220 you get Desk Questions
00:31:43.080 in the mailbag
00:31:43.720 that's going to be
00:31:44.560 coming up tomorrow
00:31:45.140 so make sure you get
00:31:45.740 your questions in
00:31:46.400 you get Another Kingdom
00:31:47.740 which we're recording now
00:31:48.880 and it's super cool
00:31:49.860 the story is great
00:31:50.820 I think the third season
00:31:52.480 is actually better
00:31:53.200 than the first two
00:31:53.980 you get all that
00:31:54.940 and you will get
00:31:56.340 your Leftist Tears Tumblr
00:31:57.260 and you're going to need
00:31:57.960 that Leftist Tears Tumblr
00:31:59.040 you're going to need
00:31:59.620 a 15 million Leftist Tears
00:32:01.100 coming out of California
00:32:02.020 in just the past few days
00:32:03.000 go over to the Daily Wire
00:32:04.720 so that you don't drown
00:32:06.020 we will be right back
00:32:07.060 some really great news
00:32:19.300 on the abortion front
00:32:20.940 this week
00:32:21.340 just after that awful
00:32:23.100 story came out
00:32:24.420 about the abortionist
00:32:25.920 who had 2,000 baby body parts
00:32:28.680 found at his home
00:32:29.720 that was pretty gruesome
00:32:31.580 and grisly
00:32:31.980 we get a report
00:32:33.520 from the Guttmacher Institute
00:32:34.540 which is a pro-abortion institute
00:32:36.520 it's affiliated with
00:32:37.340 Planned Parenthood
00:32:38.060 they are showing
00:32:39.360 that the number of abortions
00:32:40.760 in the United States
00:32:41.480 has fallen to the lowest level
00:32:43.280 since 1973
00:32:45.300 so what they found
00:32:47.940 is that in 2017
00:32:49.360 that's the most recent year
00:32:50.400 they got the numbers for
00:32:51.220 there were 862,000 abortions
00:32:54.140 in the United States
00:32:54.900 now that number
00:32:55.700 is still
00:32:56.900 so horrifying
00:32:59.080 I mean
00:33:00.140 862,000
00:33:03.340 babies
00:33:04.440 human
00:33:05.640 persons
00:33:06.740 cute little lives
00:33:08.340 snuffed out
00:33:09.960 at the behest
00:33:11.620 of their own
00:33:12.460 mothers
00:33:13.020 by so-called
00:33:14.480 doctors
00:33:15.200 whose job it is
00:33:16.840 to heal
00:33:17.520 and help people
00:33:18.360 and who instead
00:33:19.260 are using forceps
00:33:20.480 and vacuums
00:33:21.460 to murder them
00:33:22.780 en masse
00:33:23.560 I don't want it
00:33:25.560 to sound like
00:33:26.180 this is too rosy
00:33:27.360 a story here
00:33:28.100 862,000 abortions
00:33:30.460 in the United States
00:33:31.260 is 862,000
00:33:33.560 too many abortions
00:33:35.180 still
00:33:36.280 that is down
00:33:38.320 from a previous report
00:33:40.180 from the Guttmacher Institute
00:33:41.080 from 2014
00:33:41.860 showing
00:33:43.060 926,000
00:33:45.980 abortions
00:33:46.980 so you're down
00:33:48.120 about 60,000 abortions
00:33:50.080 in just
00:33:51.300 three years
00:33:52.000 that's pretty good
00:33:52.760 and actually
00:33:54.100 there were over
00:33:54.940 a million abortions
00:33:55.900 counted in 2011
00:33:57.220 so the number
00:33:58.360 is decreasing
00:33:59.260 I mean
00:33:59.620 that's pretty good
00:34:00.580 if you can save
00:34:01.080 150,000 babies
00:34:02.260 a year
00:34:02.680 it's a good thing
00:34:05.340 that's worth
00:34:05.880 celebrating
00:34:06.460 Guttmacher is also
00:34:08.520 by the way
00:34:08.900 the only entity
00:34:10.240 that tries to count
00:34:11.460 all of these abortions
00:34:12.220 in the United States
00:34:13.000 and makes inquiries
00:34:14.300 of the private
00:34:15.080 abortionists
00:34:15.780 so this is pretty
00:34:17.160 reliable data
00:34:18.920 it's at least
00:34:19.660 the best data
00:34:20.140 that we have
00:34:20.820 why are abortions
00:34:24.000 decreasing?
00:34:25.460 part of the reason
00:34:26.440 they're decreasing
00:34:27.080 is actually
00:34:27.720 that there are
00:34:28.120 fewer pregnancies
00:34:28.860 so I guess
00:34:29.580 that's not
00:34:30.020 great news
00:34:30.920 I mean
00:34:31.240 we have a dying
00:34:31.900 population
00:34:32.540 we're well below
00:34:33.740 replacement rate
00:34:34.640 right now
00:34:35.080 for the American
00:34:35.580 population
00:34:36.220 you need about
00:34:36.800 2.1 babies
00:34:38.540 per couple
00:34:39.120 and we're at
00:34:39.840 about 1.7
00:34:40.660 so we're still
00:34:41.920 in a tough situation
00:34:43.120 and this has effects
00:34:44.000 not just obviously
00:34:44.740 on the people
00:34:46.280 and not just
00:34:46.860 on the health
00:34:47.240 of the country
00:34:47.740 but it's one
00:34:48.640 of the reasons
00:34:49.020 for instance
00:34:49.400 why we rely
00:34:50.100 so heavily
00:34:50.640 on immigration
00:34:51.320 is our economy
00:34:52.440 would likely
00:34:53.060 collapse
00:34:53.560 if we totally
00:34:54.580 cut off
00:34:54.940 immigration now
00:34:55.700 we have to
00:34:56.160 import
00:34:56.780 well over
00:34:57.480 a million people
00:34:58.040 a year
00:34:58.400 legally
00:34:59.280 and then
00:34:59.920 another million
00:35:00.580 people a year
00:35:01.160 illegally
00:35:01.620 if we just
00:35:02.140 cut out
00:35:02.460 the abortion
00:35:02.940 and got our
00:35:03.660 birth rate
00:35:04.040 back up
00:35:04.500 I mean
00:35:04.680 the numbers
00:35:05.000 work out
00:35:05.360 almost perfectly
00:35:06.020 we would be
00:35:06.600 at replacement
00:35:07.100 rate
00:35:07.420 and the need
00:35:08.580 for immigration
00:35:09.580 not
00:35:09.880 obviously
00:35:10.620 we'd still
00:35:11.020 debate
00:35:11.300 whether
00:35:11.840 certain immigration
00:35:12.840 levels are desirable
00:35:14.060 or beneficial
00:35:15.060 to the country
00:35:15.600 but the need
00:35:17.140 for it
00:35:17.700 would disappear
00:35:19.320 overnight
00:35:19.860 almost exactly
00:35:20.780 so that is
00:35:22.100 bad news
00:35:22.640 still good news
00:35:24.200 that we're
00:35:24.700 killing fewer
00:35:25.160 babies
00:35:25.500 and I think
00:35:26.240 we're turning
00:35:26.640 a corner on this
00:35:27.340 I think we're
00:35:27.640 turning a corner
00:35:28.200 on this issue
00:35:28.780 I was hosting
00:35:29.520 Ben's radio show
00:35:30.260 yesterday
00:35:30.600 and I talked
00:35:30.940 to Abby Johnson
00:35:31.760 who is a former
00:35:33.060 Planned Parenthood
00:35:33.860 staffer
00:35:34.700 who is rising up
00:35:35.520 the ranks
00:35:35.900 and then she saw
00:35:37.160 an abortion
00:35:37.640 on an ultrasound
00:35:38.360 and she instantly
00:35:39.660 became a pro-life
00:35:40.420 activist
00:35:41.140 and advocate
00:35:42.220 she left
00:35:42.760 Planned Parenthood
00:35:43.200 now she's one
00:35:43.820 of the biggest
00:35:44.220 pro-life voices
00:35:45.380 in the country
00:35:46.120 seeing that
00:35:48.940 ultrasound
00:35:49.520 I think
00:35:50.440 is
00:35:51.220 helping to reduce
00:35:52.740 the number of
00:35:53.360 abortions in the
00:35:53.940 country
00:35:54.200 you can see it
00:35:55.440 and it's not just
00:35:56.080 a little black
00:35:56.640 and white blob
00:35:57.440 you can see the
00:35:58.500 baby in three
00:35:59.300 dimensions
00:35:59.820 really early on
00:36:01.020 you can just
00:36:01.920 tell
00:36:02.360 that
00:36:03.320 is
00:36:04.080 a baby
00:36:04.780 that
00:36:05.820 looks like
00:36:06.780 a baby
00:36:07.040 now it's not
00:36:07.600 even an argument
00:36:08.260 I mean
00:36:08.620 we should know
00:36:09.500 that abortion
00:36:09.920 is wrong
00:36:10.460 and abortion
00:36:10.920 is evil
00:36:11.280 just
00:36:11.800 using our own
00:36:13.300 faculties of reason
00:36:14.260 and our own logic
00:36:15.120 a person's a person
00:36:16.500 no matter how small
00:36:17.420 we know it's living
00:36:18.260 we know it's human
00:36:19.020 you shouldn't kill
00:36:19.940 innocent human life
00:36:20.860 simple enough
00:36:22.540 but
00:36:22.880 the optics matter
00:36:24.840 seeing is believing
00:36:26.040 and when you see
00:36:27.340 that that's a baby
00:36:28.060 something stirs
00:36:29.260 in you emotionally
00:36:29.960 and you say
00:36:30.560 I can't kill that
00:36:32.000 I should not kill that
00:36:33.380 I don't even really
00:36:34.340 like babies
00:36:34.860 you know
00:36:35.160 I'm not like a warm
00:36:36.040 and fuzzy guy
00:36:36.680 exactly
00:36:37.120 I don't like puppies
00:36:37.780 I don't like babies
00:36:38.420 that much
00:36:38.780 I like some babies
00:36:40.080 but not all babies
00:36:40.840 but
00:36:41.380 when someone hands you
00:36:42.740 a baby
00:36:43.040 you're going to
00:36:43.320 hold a baby
00:36:43.780 you just feel
00:36:45.580 this natural
00:36:46.500 care for it
00:36:47.320 you want to
00:36:47.600 protect it
00:36:48.140 you certainly
00:36:48.780 don't want to
00:36:49.520 kill it
00:36:49.820 that
00:36:50.440 is
00:36:51.220 some of the good
00:36:51.920 news on the
00:36:52.320 culture
00:36:52.520 seeing is
00:36:52.960 believing
00:36:53.300 I saw this
00:36:54.300 headline from
00:36:55.120 the Guardian
00:36:55.580 the British
00:36:56.040 newspaper
00:36:56.500 and
00:36:57.680 the headline
00:36:58.340 said
00:36:58.720 unborn babies
00:37:00.380 exposed
00:37:01.260 to toxic
00:37:02.620 air pollution
00:37:03.580 and this
00:37:05.240 was a really
00:37:05.680 telling headline
00:37:06.880 unborn babies
00:37:08.660 exposed to
00:37:09.380 toxic air
00:37:09.900 pollution
00:37:10.300 except the
00:37:11.420 mainstream media
00:37:12.100 left wing
00:37:12.540 papers
00:37:12.980 don't
00:37:13.660 tend to refer
00:37:15.260 to unborn
00:37:15.680 babies
00:37:16.060 do they
00:37:16.400 what do they
00:37:16.720 refer to
00:37:17.260 fetuses
00:37:18.400 embryos
00:37:20.040 clump of
00:37:21.760 cells
00:37:22.400 they don't
00:37:23.160 refer to the
00:37:23.600 unborn babies
00:37:24.120 which is what
00:37:24.560 they are
00:37:24.880 they don't
00:37:25.780 refer to the
00:37:26.180 unborn babies
00:37:26.740 when they're
00:37:27.040 talking about
00:37:27.500 whether or not
00:37:27.860 we should kill
00:37:28.360 them
00:37:28.540 they only
00:37:29.160 refer to
00:37:29.600 the unborn
00:37:30.000 babies
00:37:30.440 to pull
00:37:31.240 on our
00:37:31.520 heart strings
00:37:32.140 while we're
00:37:32.800 talking about
00:37:33.500 global warming
00:37:34.560 which is a
00:37:35.060 leftist policy
00:37:35.900 issue
00:37:36.680 then they talk
00:37:38.320 about it
00:37:38.700 you know
00:37:38.920 you never hear
00:37:39.560 when some
00:37:40.600 princess in the
00:37:41.360 UK is about
00:37:42.480 to have a
00:37:42.820 baby
00:37:43.100 then it's
00:37:43.940 the royal
00:37:44.280 baby
00:37:44.600 it's not
00:37:44.960 the royal
00:37:45.240 clump of
00:37:45.620 cells
00:37:45.820 it's not
00:37:46.080 the royal
00:37:46.380 fetus
00:37:46.820 it's the
00:37:47.920 baby
00:37:48.200 because we
00:37:48.560 know it's
00:37:49.060 a baby
00:37:49.420 but when
00:37:50.620 it's
00:37:50.780 politically
00:37:51.080 convenient
00:37:51.480 for them
00:37:51.860 they hide
00:37:52.420 it
00:37:52.600 they can't
00:37:53.220 really hide
00:37:53.640 it so much
00:37:54.220 anymore
00:37:54.740 it's becoming
00:37:55.880 clearer
00:37:56.320 that those
00:37:57.200 euphemisms
00:37:57.860 you know
00:37:58.220 all those
00:37:59.000 deceptive
00:37:59.820 slogans
00:38:00.480 that the
00:38:00.820 left uses
00:38:01.340 to try to
00:38:02.340 push their
00:38:02.680 fantasies
00:38:03.240 on the
00:38:03.560 silent
00:38:03.780 majority
00:38:04.120 of people
00:38:04.560 who get
00:38:05.060 it
00:38:05.180 who know
00:38:05.760 who understand
00:38:06.560 what's
00:38:07.020 going on
00:38:07.660 those euphemisms
00:38:08.740 are cracking
00:38:09.280 they're falling
00:38:09.780 apart
00:38:10.140 and we're
00:38:10.980 looking and
00:38:11.380 we're saying
00:38:11.760 no that's
00:38:12.480 a baby
00:38:12.740 shouldn't do
00:38:13.280 that
00:38:13.520 you can
00:38:13.980 scream
00:38:14.320 you can
00:38:14.600 shout
00:38:14.840 your abortion
00:38:15.360 you can
00:38:15.620 have
00:38:15.740 Alyssa
00:38:16.000 Milano
00:38:16.440 screech
00:38:17.120 all she
00:38:17.400 wants
00:38:17.620 on Twitter
00:38:18.040 you're not
00:38:18.960 going to
00:38:19.180 convince me
00:38:19.680 to disbelieve
00:38:20.340 my own
00:38:20.880 eyes
00:38:21.420 that's some
00:38:22.060 good news
00:38:22.360 on the
00:38:22.560 culture
00:38:22.760 some bad
00:38:23.100 news
00:38:23.260 on the
00:38:23.460 culture
00:38:23.780 coming from
00:38:25.000 the New York
00:38:25.360 Times
00:38:25.740 and from
00:38:26.080 Pope Francis
00:38:26.740 and I sort
00:38:27.760 of repeat
00:38:28.080 myself
00:38:28.420 when I say
00:38:28.880 that
00:38:29.100 this is
00:38:29.680 on the
00:38:29.880 question
00:38:30.220 of life
00:38:30.760 imprisonment
00:38:32.020 the left
00:38:34.040 is turning
00:38:34.580 against life
00:38:35.340 imprisonment
00:38:35.840 the left
00:38:36.280 already
00:38:36.580 opposes
00:38:36.980 the death
00:38:37.320 penalty
00:38:37.700 almost
00:38:38.340 uniformly
00:38:39.140 many
00:38:39.740 conservatives
00:38:40.180 now even
00:38:40.680 oppose the
00:38:41.120 death
00:38:41.260 penalty
00:38:41.600 now
00:38:42.860 they're
00:38:43.220 moving
00:38:43.560 to opposing
00:38:44.440 life
00:38:44.940 imprisonment
00:38:45.640 and I
00:38:46.120 only bring
00:38:46.700 up this
00:38:47.000 story
00:38:47.360 in all
00:38:48.480 of my
00:38:48.820 humility
00:38:49.200 to say
00:38:50.240 I told
00:38:50.760 you so
00:38:51.140 I called
00:38:51.780 it
00:38:51.920 I knew
00:38:52.320 this would
00:38:52.680 happen
00:38:53.000 one of
00:38:53.580 the
00:38:53.680 arguments
00:38:54.060 against
00:38:54.360 the
00:38:54.540 death
00:38:54.700 penalty
00:38:55.020 there are
00:38:55.660 a lot
00:38:55.840 of
00:38:55.940 incoherent
00:38:56.400 arguments
00:38:56.780 you hear
00:38:57.320 people
00:38:57.640 say
00:38:58.040 we need
00:38:59.160 to get
00:38:59.380 rid
00:38:59.500 of
00:38:59.580 the
00:38:59.680 death
00:38:59.820 penalty
00:39:00.140 because
00:39:00.700 it's
00:39:01.700 better
00:39:03.360 it would
00:39:04.660 be better
00:39:05.140 to lock
00:39:05.900 the person
00:39:06.260 up
00:39:06.460 in
00:39:06.880 jail
00:39:07.440 forever
00:39:07.800 it gives
00:39:08.440 them hope
00:39:08.980 it gives
00:39:09.420 them
00:39:09.700 their life
00:39:10.800 it doesn't
00:39:11.100 take their
00:39:11.340 life away
00:39:11.740 then you hear
00:39:12.420 people say
00:39:13.020 we need
00:39:13.840 to get
00:39:14.020 rid
00:39:14.120 of the
00:39:14.260 death
00:39:14.400 penalty
00:39:14.680 because
00:39:15.140 the
00:39:15.400 death
00:39:15.560 penalty
00:39:15.840 is
00:39:15.980 too
00:39:16.160 good
00:39:16.400 for
00:39:16.560 them
00:39:16.800 life
00:39:17.520 imprisonment
00:39:18.080 is
00:39:18.200 way
00:39:18.440 worse
00:39:18.720 and we
00:39:23.000 but the
00:39:25.340 argument
00:39:25.940 that we
00:39:26.820 need
00:39:27.160 to
00:39:27.480 get
00:39:28.000 rid
00:39:28.280 of
00:39:28.500 the
00:39:28.720 death
00:39:28.880 penalty
00:39:29.240 in
00:39:29.760 the
00:39:29.920 service
00:39:30.320 of
00:39:30.600 justice
00:39:31.160 was
00:39:31.820 never
00:39:32.200 a
00:39:32.860 good
00:39:33.000 argument
00:39:33.380 the
00:39:34.420 reason
00:39:34.780 people
00:39:35.180 are
00:39:35.340 clamoring
00:39:35.720 against
00:39:36.040 the
00:39:36.200 death
00:39:36.360 penalty
00:39:36.640 is
00:39:36.800 because
00:39:36.960 they
00:39:37.100 don't
00:39:37.420 understand
00:39:38.080 justice
00:39:38.540 they
00:39:38.800 think
00:39:39.100 that
00:39:39.240 the
00:39:39.340 criminal
00:39:39.540 justice
00:39:39.820 system
00:39:40.220 is
00:39:40.620 only
00:39:40.820 about
00:39:41.060 rehabilitation
00:39:41.680 rehabilitation
00:39:42.620 is
00:39:43.140 only
00:39:43.360 one
00:39:43.600 of
00:39:43.720 the
00:39:43.840 three
00:39:44.340 reasons
00:39:45.120 for
00:39:45.480 the
00:39:45.600 criminal
00:39:45.840 justice
00:39:46.180 system
00:39:46.580 and
00:39:47.140 it
00:39:47.260 is
00:39:47.380 by
00:39:47.540 far
00:39:47.860 the
00:39:48.020 least
00:39:48.240 important
00:39:48.600 one
00:39:48.940 the
00:39:50.240 three
00:39:50.460 reasons
00:39:50.780 are
00:39:50.920 rehabilitation
00:39:51.400 sure
00:39:52.000 also
00:39:53.360 deterrence
00:39:54.020 deterring
00:39:54.420 other
00:39:54.580 criminals
00:39:55.000 and
00:39:55.520 most
00:39:55.760 importantly
00:39:56.320 retribution
00:39:57.800 punishment
00:39:59.200 for
00:40:00.240 the
00:40:00.580 crime
00:40:01.080 justice
00:40:02.200 itself
00:40:03.420 that's
00:40:04.860 the
00:40:04.960 most
00:40:05.140 important
00:40:05.500 one
00:40:05.820 look
00:40:06.280 we
00:40:06.400 could
00:40:06.520 all
00:40:06.640 use
00:40:06.800 a
00:40:06.900 little
00:40:07.000 rehabilitation
00:40:07.520 okay
00:40:08.020 we
00:40:08.580 all
00:40:08.760 have
00:40:08.940 personal
00:40:09.360 behaviors
00:40:09.780 that
00:40:09.960 we
00:40:10.060 could
00:40:10.220 amend
00:40:10.560 should
00:40:11.640 we
00:40:11.780 all
00:40:11.920 go
00:40:12.020 to
00:40:12.140 prisons
00:40:12.440 should
00:40:12.640 we
00:40:12.720 all
00:40:12.820 go
00:40:12.900 to
00:40:13.000 rehabilitation
00:40:13.540 correctional
00:40:14.500 centers
00:40:14.820 no
00:40:15.320 of course
00:40:15.740 not
00:40:15.980 there
00:40:16.720 would
00:40:16.820 be
00:40:16.940 a
00:40:17.100 mass
00:40:17.440 public
00:40:17.800 outcry
00:40:18.240 if
00:40:18.440 you
00:40:18.540 took
00:40:18.760 your
00:40:19.080 brother
00:40:19.560 who's
00:40:19.780 annoying
00:40:20.040 you
00:40:20.280 and
00:40:20.400 saying
00:40:20.600 oh
00:40:20.760 we
00:40:20.860 got
00:40:20.920 to
00:40:20.980 get
00:40:21.100 you
00:40:21.180 to
00:40:21.240 that
00:40:21.360 correctional
00:40:21.840 center
00:40:22.060 so you
00:40:22.560 get
00:40:22.660 a little
00:40:22.820 more
00:40:23.020 correct
00:40:23.400 so you
00:40:23.620 get
00:40:23.720 rehabilitated
00:40:24.380 you
00:40:25.340 go to
00:40:25.560 prison
00:40:25.780 because you
00:40:26.040 committed
00:40:26.360 crimes
00:40:26.940 you
00:40:27.720 go to
00:40:28.000 prison
00:40:28.280 as a
00:40:28.800 punishment
00:40:29.260 and as
00:40:30.600 a way
00:40:31.040 to
00:40:31.660 in some
00:40:32.480 way
00:40:32.760 restore
00:40:33.420 and exact
00:40:34.260 justice
00:40:35.400 justice
00:40:36.220 is the
00:40:36.740 purpose
00:40:37.080 and so
00:40:37.880 if you
00:40:38.120 get rid
00:40:38.640 of
00:40:38.880 the
00:40:39.520 death
00:40:39.680 penalty
00:40:39.940 you're
00:40:40.160 not
00:40:40.320 going
00:40:40.460 to
00:40:40.540 have
00:40:40.620 a
00:40:40.720 clearer
00:40:41.000 sense
00:40:41.320 of
00:40:41.460 justice
00:40:41.800 you're
00:40:42.380 going
00:40:42.520 to
00:40:42.600 have
00:40:42.700 a
00:40:42.780 less
00:40:42.920 clear
00:40:43.140 sense
00:40:43.380 and
00:40:43.520 that's
00:40:43.740 what's
00:40:43.900 happening
00:40:44.140 with
00:40:44.560 life
00:40:44.860 imprisonment
00:40:45.440 so the
00:40:45.660 New York
00:40:45.880 Times
00:40:46.120 came out
00:40:46.560 with this
00:40:47.140 piece
00:40:47.340 a little
00:40:47.520 while ago
00:40:47.900 they said
00:40:48.140 how would
00:40:48.640 you spend
00:40:49.000 a life
00:40:49.280 sentence
00:40:49.680 for one
00:40:50.600 inmate
00:40:50.920 a new
00:40:51.180 federal law
00:40:51.700 gave hope
00:40:52.140 where there
00:40:52.520 had been
00:40:52.800 none
00:40:53.080 imagine
00:40:53.820 at the
00:40:54.080 age
00:40:54.300 of 28
00:40:54.780 you're
00:40:55.040 told
00:40:55.280 that
00:40:55.460 you're
00:40:55.620 going
00:40:55.700 to
00:40:55.740 spend
00:40:55.880 the
00:40:56.020 rest
00:40:56.180 of
00:40:56.280 your
00:40:56.380 life
00:40:56.580 in
00:40:56.700 prison
00:40:56.940 with
00:40:57.380 no
00:40:57.580 chance
00:40:57.920 of
00:40:58.040 release
00:40:58.400 would
00:40:59.040 you
00:40:59.260 what
00:40:59.820 would
00:40:59.960 you
00:41:00.060 do
00:41:00.200 with
00:41:00.340 all
00:41:00.460 that
00:41:00.640 time
00:41:00.880 there's
00:41:01.120 no
00:41:01.280 shame
00:41:01.580 in
00:41:01.780 admitting
00:41:02.080 you'd
00:41:02.640 want
00:41:02.800 to
00:41:02.940 throw
00:41:03.120 in
00:41:03.260 the
00:41:03.360 towel
00:41:03.640 it's
00:41:04.140 a
00:41:04.240 rational
00:41:04.640 reaction
00:41:05.100 to
00:41:05.300 a
00:41:05.460 hopeless
00:41:05.820 situation
00:41:06.500 remember
00:41:07.020 we were
00:41:07.360 told
00:41:07.580 that
00:41:07.880 the
00:41:08.000 death
00:41:08.160 penalty
00:41:08.420 was
00:41:08.620 hopeless
00:41:08.940 life
00:41:09.380 in prison
00:41:09.720 gave
00:41:09.980 you
00:41:10.100 hope
00:41:10.360 now
00:41:10.780 we're
00:41:10.980 told
00:41:11.320 no
00:41:11.620 that's
00:41:11.900 hopeless
00:41:12.160 too
00:41:12.460 pretty soon
00:41:13.040 we're
00:41:13.160 going to be
00:41:13.380 told
00:41:13.560 that if
00:41:13.760 you have
00:41:13.900 to sleep
00:41:14.300 it
00:41:14.400 off
00:41:14.600 one
00:41:14.800 night
00:41:14.960 in
00:41:15.120 jail
00:41:15.300 that's
00:41:15.560 hopeless
00:41:15.840 too
00:41:16.180 the
00:41:16.800 Times
00:41:17.000 goes
00:41:17.220 on
00:41:17.460 why
00:41:17.860 bother
00:41:18.100 working
00:41:18.460 to
00:41:18.620 improve
00:41:18.900 yourself
00:41:19.300 learning
00:41:19.800 something
00:41:20.100 new
00:41:20.340 or
00:41:20.460 making
00:41:20.720 amends
00:41:21.060 if
00:41:21.220 nothing
00:41:21.560 you
00:41:21.780 do
00:41:21.920 will
00:41:22.080 ever
00:41:22.260 make
00:41:22.460 a
00:41:22.580 difference
00:41:22.900 Gary
00:41:23.440 Rines
00:41:23.820 now
00:41:24.000 46
00:41:24.460 had
00:41:24.680 every
00:41:24.900 reason
00:41:25.180 to
00:41:25.320 choose
00:41:25.520 that
00:41:25.740 route
00:41:26.000 after
00:41:26.540 receiving
00:41:26.920 a
00:41:27.080 mandatory
00:41:27.340 sentence
00:41:27.820 of
00:41:28.000 life
00:41:28.160 without
00:41:28.380 parole
00:41:28.780 and
00:41:29.720 then
00:41:29.840 it
00:41:29.940 goes
00:41:30.080 on
00:41:30.300 and
00:41:30.380 talks
00:41:30.580 about
00:41:30.760 how
00:41:30.880 he's
00:41:31.000 been
00:41:31.100 a
00:41:31.200 good
00:41:31.340 prisoner
00:41:31.660 and
00:41:31.840 he's
00:41:34.420 like
00:41:34.580 a
00:41:34.680 really
00:41:34.820 nice
00:41:35.040 guy
00:41:35.320 and
00:41:36.340 they
00:41:36.940 conclude
00:41:37.300 this
00:41:37.520 summer
00:41:37.760 all
00:41:37.920 those
00:41:38.060 years
00:41:38.240 of
00:41:38.400 work
00:41:39.200 paid
00:41:39.540 off
00:41:39.880 at
00:41:40.340 a
00:41:40.440 hearing
00:41:40.700 on
00:41:40.920 July
00:41:41.180 24th
00:41:41.780 in
00:41:41.860 Harrisburg
00:41:50.460 which
00:41:50.740 includes
00:41:51.080 nearly
00:41:51.440 three
00:41:51.760 years
00:41:52.080 of
00:41:53.020 pretrial
00:41:53.520 detention
00:41:53.980 that
00:41:55.360 was
00:41:55.480 the
00:41:55.600 New
00:41:55.720 York
00:41:55.880 Times
00:41:56.220 Pope
00:41:56.480 Francis
00:41:56.900 comes
00:41:57.180 out
00:41:57.400 says
00:41:57.620 basically
00:41:58.020 the
00:41:58.200 same
00:41:58.380 thing
00:41:58.560 the
00:41:58.760 message
00:41:59.020 from
00:41:59.180 the
00:41:59.300 Times
00:41:59.500 is
00:41:59.660 clear
00:41:59.840 we need
00:42:00.100 to
00:42:00.160 get rid
00:42:00.400 of
00:42:00.500 life
00:42:00.680 imprisonment
00:42:01.480 Pope
00:42:02.100 Francis
00:42:02.420 said it
00:42:02.760 even
00:42:02.980 more
00:42:03.400 clearly
00:42:03.740 Pope
00:42:04.000 Francis
00:42:04.300 came
00:42:04.580 out
00:42:04.800 and
00:42:05.200 he
00:42:05.360 said
00:42:05.760 it
00:42:06.260 is
00:42:06.380 up
00:42:06.500 to
00:42:06.620 every
00:42:06.840 society
00:42:07.280 to
00:42:07.480 ensure
00:42:07.740 that
00:42:07.940 the
00:42:08.120 penalty
00:42:08.640 does
00:42:08.980 not
00:42:09.220 compromise
00:42:09.680 the
00:42:09.920 right
00:42:10.120 to
00:42:10.280 hope
00:42:10.580 that
00:42:11.200 prospects
00:42:11.840 for
00:42:12.140 reconciliation
00:42:12.620 and
00:42:13.020 reintegration
00:42:13.640 are
00:42:13.840 guaranteed
00:42:14.300 life
00:42:15.000 imprisonment
00:42:15.640 is not
00:42:16.140 the
00:42:16.340 solution
00:42:16.720 to
00:42:16.920 problems
00:42:17.420 I
00:42:17.920 repeat
00:42:18.340 life
00:42:18.980 imprisonment
00:42:19.520 is not
00:42:19.800 the
00:42:19.940 solution
00:42:20.220 to
00:42:20.380 problems
00:42:20.880 but
00:42:21.720 a
00:42:21.840 problem
00:42:22.220 to
00:42:22.640 be
00:42:22.800 solved
00:42:23.200 that
00:42:24.860 is
00:42:25.240 what
00:42:25.600 the
00:42:26.340 Pope
00:42:26.500 is
00:42:26.660 saying
00:42:26.780 this
00:42:26.940 is
00:42:27.040 the
00:42:27.160 same
00:42:27.340 Pope
00:42:27.560 who
00:42:27.920 came
00:42:28.160 out
00:42:28.280 against
00:42:28.480 the
00:42:28.620 death
00:42:28.780 penalty
00:42:29.120 just
00:42:29.680 a
00:42:29.800 few
00:42:29.920 months
00:42:30.180 ago
00:42:30.480 and
00:42:30.860 attempted
00:42:31.540 to
00:42:32.100 radically
00:42:32.740 change
00:42:33.340 2000
00:42:34.000 years
00:42:34.660 of
00:42:34.900 Catholic
00:42:35.220 moral
00:42:35.540 teaching
00:42:35.900 this
00:42:38.120 comes
00:42:38.840 from
00:42:39.300 a
00:42:39.620 fundamental
00:42:40.600 misunderstanding
00:42:41.720 of
00:42:42.320 justice
00:42:42.820 and
00:42:44.000 we're
00:42:44.160 talking
00:42:44.660 about
00:42:44.920 it
00:42:45.060 now
00:42:45.300 as
00:42:45.460 though
00:42:45.580 this
00:42:45.740 is
00:42:45.880 compassionate
00:42:46.440 I
00:42:47.380 mean
00:42:47.460 Joe
00:42:47.620 Biden
00:42:47.860 did
00:42:48.160 you hear
00:42:48.340 Joe
00:42:48.540 Biden
00:42:48.720 at the
00:42:48.900 debate
00:42:49.100 just
00:42:49.260 the
00:42:49.380 other
00:42:49.500 night
00:42:49.660 he
00:42:49.780 came
00:42:49.940 out
00:42:50.080 and
00:42:50.160 he
00:42:50.240 said
00:42:50.440 nonviolent
00:42:51.340 criminals
00:42:51.780 should
00:42:52.180 not
00:42:52.540 go
00:42:53.040 to
00:42:53.540 prison
00:42:53.840 here
00:42:54.020 he
00:42:54.120 is
00:42:54.320 nobody
00:42:55.140 should
00:42:55.600 be
00:42:55.760 in
00:42:55.940 jail
00:42:56.200 for
00:42:56.640 a
00:42:56.760 nonviolent
00:42:57.220 crime
00:42:57.660 what
00:42:58.520 does
00:42:58.640 that
00:42:58.820 mean
00:42:59.060 so
00:42:59.300 if
00:42:59.440 you
00:42:59.540 commit
00:42:59.800 fraud
00:43:00.260 if
00:43:00.440 you
00:43:00.560 commit
00:43:00.900 bank
00:43:01.220 fraud
00:43:01.460 a
00:43:01.620 white
00:43:01.800 collar
00:43:02.060 crime
00:43:02.460 you
00:43:02.680 shouldn't
00:43:02.960 go
00:43:03.040 to
00:43:12.820 even
00:43:13.460 though
00:43:13.740 fraud
00:43:14.420 is
00:43:14.620 a
00:43:14.780 much
00:43:15.040 worse
00:43:15.740 crime
00:43:16.220 and
00:43:16.440 more
00:43:16.880 serious
00:43:17.260 sin
00:43:17.680 than
00:43:18.420 robbing
00:43:18.780 a liquor
00:43:18.980 store
00:43:19.260 doesn't
00:43:21.240 make
00:43:21.440 any
00:43:21.660 sense
00:43:22.020 it's
00:43:22.520 a
00:43:23.140 misunderstanding
00:43:23.780 of
00:43:24.220 justice
00:43:24.600 from
00:43:24.840 Joe
00:43:25.100 Biden
00:43:25.460 to
00:43:25.640 the

00:43:25.980 to
00:43:26.120 the
00:43:26.220 New
00:43:26.320 York
00:43:26.480 Times
00:43:26.820 a
00:43:28.080 fundamental
00:43:28.760 misunderstanding
00:43:29.460 of it
00:43:29.920 and
00:43:30.120 I
00:43:31.880 saw
00:43:32.340 the
00:43:32.560 rot
00:43:32.860 setting
00:43:33.200 in
00:43:33.460 with
00:43:33.680 the
00:43:33.800 death
00:43:33.960 penalty
00:43:34.300 but
00:43:35.140 everyone
00:43:35.460 a lot
00:43:35.820 of
00:43:35.900 conservatives
00:43:36.300 oppose
00:43:36.620 the
00:43:36.760 death
00:43:36.920 penalty
00:43:37.200 too
00:43:37.500 I
00:43:38.660 don't
00:43:38.900 death
00:43:39.100 penalty
00:43:39.340 is
00:43:39.500 a
00:43:39.600 good
00:43:39.720 thing
00:43:39.920 it's
00:43:40.080 important
00:43:40.420 for
00:43:40.580 the
00:43:40.720 civil
00:43:40.880 authority
00:43:41.260 to
00:43:41.500 have
00:43:41.640 the

00:43:41.920 penalty
00:43:42.240 for
00:43:43.620 all
00:43:43.800 three
00:43:44.000 of
00:43:44.120 those
00:43:44.260 reasons
00:43:44.540 by
00:43:44.740 the
00:43:44.820 way
00:43:44.920 for
00:43:45.080 retribution
00:43:45.640 for
00:43:46.020 deterrence
00:43:46.500 and
00:43:46.620 even
00:43:46.780 rehabilitation
00:43:47.340 hanging
00:43:48.160 concentrates
00:43:48.800 the
00:43:48.940 mind
00:43:49.260 as
00:43:49.780 Dr.

00:43:54.540 said
00:43:54.820 when
00:43:55.200 a

00:43:55.500 knows
00:43:55.720 he's
00:43:56.340 to
00:43:56.460 be
00:43:56.600 hanged
00:43:56.880 in
00:43:56.960 a
00:43:57.080 fortnight
00:43:57.520 it
00:43:57.720 concentrates
00:43:58.280 his
00:43:58.420 mind
00:43:58.640 wonderfully
00:43:59.100 it
00:43:59.880 can
00:44:00.000 really
00:44:00.180 reform
00:44:00.600 you

00:44:10.820 needs
00:44:11.060 the
00:44:11.200 death
00:44:11.360 penalty
00:44:11.640 is
00:44:11.800 it
00:44:11.900 gives
00:44:12.100 us
00:44:12.260 a
00:44:12.400 sense
00:44:12.640 of
00:44:12.800 justice
00:44:13.200 and
00:44:13.660 as
00:44:13.880 that
00:44:14.060 erodes
00:44:14.540 very
00:44:15.140 very
00:44:15.360 quickly
00:44:15.680 as you're
00:44:15.940 seeing
00:44:16.100 just
00:44:16.240 months
00:44:16.560 later
00:44:16.860 the

00:44:46.040 justice
00:44:46.720 not
00:44:47.220 good
00:44:47.500 news
00:44:47.800 and
00:44:48.040 I
00:44:48.220 will
00:44:48.420 end
00:44:48.960 today's
00:44:49.840 show
00:44:50.140 on
00:44:50.540 even
00:44:51.060 worse
00:44:51.780 news
00:44:52.880 though
00:44:53.100 it's
00:44:53.260 very
00:44:53.560 expected
00:44:54.140 millennials
00:44:55.160 are
00:44:56.380 bad
00:44:56.740 tippers
00:44:57.160 I'm
00:44:58.100 not
00:44:58.260 surprised
00:44:58.640 at
00:44:58.800 all
00:44:58.960 I
00:44:59.460 am
00:44:59.560 not
00:44:59.720 surprised
00:44:59.840 a
00:44:59.900 new
00:45:00.020 study
00:45:00.260 came
00:45:00.500 out
00:45:00.760 from
00:45:01.260 creditcards.com
00:45:02.740 finding
00:45:03.700 that in
00:45:04.160 general
00:45:04.500 men
00:45:04.880 and
00:45:05.140 millennials
00:45:05.520 are the
00:45:06.060 worst
00:45:06.440 tippers
00:45:07.140 now
00:45:08.200 I
00:45:08.920 was a
00:45:09.180 little
00:45:09.260 surprised
00:45:09.600 to find
00:45:09.860 out
00:45:09.960 that
00:45:10.060 men
00:45:10.260 are
00:45:10.380 worse
00:45:10.580 tippers
00:45:10.840 than
00:45:11.040 women
00:45:11.260 part
00:45:13.300 of
00:45:13.440 this
00:45:13.700 might
00:45:14.060 be
00:45:14.200 there
00:45:14.340 was
00:45:14.460 one
00:45:14.680 flaw
00:45:15.020 with
00:45:15.180 the
00:45:15.280 study
00:45:15.480 they
00:45:15.620 pointed
00:45:15.840 this
00:45:16.020 out
00:45:16.160 I
00:45:16.240 think
00:45:16.360 over
00:45:16.520 at
00:45:16.620 hot
00:45:16.800 air
00:45:16.980 which
00:45:17.500 is
00:45:17.660 that
00:45:17.960 they
00:45:19.440 did
00:45:19.700 it
00:45:19.800 just
00:45:19.940 based
00:45:20.140 on
00:45:20.280 credit
00:45:20.520 card
00:45:20.740 tips
00:45:28.260 to know
00:45:28.500 about
00:45:28.680 everything
00:45:28.960 and
00:45:29.460 two
00:45:29.640 because
00:45:29.860 sometimes
00:45:30.200 the
00:45:30.420 restaurants
00:45:30.740 themselves
00:45:31.140 go in
00:45:31.580 there
00:45:31.740 and
00:45:31.880 take
00:45:32.060 some
00:45:32.200 of
00:45:32.260 your
00:45:32.340 money
00:45:32.540 if
00:45:32.940 it's
00:45:33.060 on
00:45:33.180 credit
00:45:33.380 cards
00:45:33.600 but
00:45:34.540 millennials
00:45:35.660 don't
00:45:36.040 carry
00:45:36.280 cash
00:45:36.640 so I
00:45:37.240 think
00:45:37.440 with
00:45:37.600 millennials
00:45:37.940 it's
00:45:38.460 just
00:45:38.720 about
00:45:39.040 tipping
00:45:39.340 not
00:45:39.820 surprised
00:45:40.220 at
00:45:40.380 all
00:45:40.480 millennials
00:45:40.800 are
00:45:41.080 often
00:45:41.500 excoriated
00:45:43.040 as a
00:45:43.600 selfish
00:45:43.840 generation
00:45:44.640 and
00:45:45.520 all
00:45:46.040 just
00:45:46.720 obsessed
00:45:47.160 with
00:45:47.320 themselves
00:45:47.760 and
00:45:48.160 greedy
00:45:48.480 and
00:45:49.000 all
00:45:49.320 in it
00:45:49.560 for
00:45:49.700 themselves
00:45:50.100 and
00:45:51.080 also
00:45:52.160 broke
00:45:52.580 because
00:45:52.780 they have
00:45:52.940 a lot
00:45:53.100 of debt
00:45:53.440 and
00:45:54.460 this
00:45:54.600 would
00:45:54.760 seem
00:45:54.900 to
00:45:55.040 bear
00:45:55.180 that
00:45:55.360 out
00:45:55.580 I
00:45:56.440 just
00:45:56.840 would
00:45:57.020 like
00:45:57.300 for
00:45:57.520 any
00:45:57.700 of
00:45:57.820 the
00:45:57.900 millennials
00:45:58.160 listening
00:45:58.620 hear me

00:46:04.020 working
00:46:04.260 a tough
00:46:04.560 job
00:46:04.940 you ever

00:46:09.260 I guess
00:46:09.560 now
00:46:09.780 in these
00:46:10.040 cities
00:46:10.240 that are

00:46:11.340 to $700
