00:00:30.000
Because today is a day that ends in Y, we have another race hoax, another hate hoax.
00:00:38.000
This one, two days after we were told that the NASCAR is completely racist.
00:00:45.680
The most popular race car company in the country is full of a bunch of Klansmen.
00:00:51.920
They found a noose, a threatening noose by the car of Bubba Wallace,
00:00:58.560
a race car driver who just happened to be wearing a t-shirt that supported Black Lives Matter.
00:01:04.320
And after an FBI investigation, I kid you not, they brought the FBI in on this.
00:01:12.520
The FBI has completed its investigation at Talladega Super Speedway and determined that Bubba Wallace was not the target of a hate crime.
00:01:20.240
The FBI report concludes, photographic evidence confirms that the garage door pull rope,
00:01:25.220
fashioned like a noose, had been positioned there since as early as last fall.
00:01:29.820
Well, we appreciate the FBI's quick and thorough investigation.
00:01:33.960
Any reasonable person knew immediately that this was completely fake.
00:01:37.360
And yet the people keep pretending that it's real.
00:01:49.860
Liberalism, which must constantly be overcoming the oppressive past into the new, wonderful, glorious future.
00:01:57.260
Well, what happens when you run out of oppressors?
00:02:15.600
Make-believe America is much wider than just one sports league or much wider than just one occupied zone of Seattle.
00:02:32.880
Actually, the way that I knew that Bubba Wallace was not giving us the whole story is because he managed to hold his subway sandwich the whole time while they were investigating his race car.
00:02:41.340
You know, when you hold that subway sandwich, that just shows you something about this race attack.
00:02:49.300
There was another attack that went viral earlier today of a man accosting some woman in her car, reducing her to tears.
00:03:00.300
And this now went around the Internet with this woman being smeared as a racist.
00:03:05.460
But I think people are drawing the opposite conclusion from what we really saw.
00:03:09.200
So the setup is that this woman targeted this man.
00:03:12.280
She was racist toward him, whatever that means.
00:03:44.780
Obviously, this woman is having a hysterical meltdown, but this guy is causing the hysterical meltdown.
00:03:50.660
What he's saying is you flip me off in the road, which is something that happens virtually every time anybody goes out driving, right?
00:03:56.460
Someone will flip you off or honk the horn or that's in the nature of driving.
00:04:08.840
She pulls into her driveway, pulls in behind her, gets out and gets a camera in her face.
00:04:24.100
Like if anyone ever did that to my wife, then we're going to have more than a YouTube video to worry about kind of behavior.
00:04:30.520
And yet he's being portrayed as the victim here.
00:04:37.340
And so now he's in her face and she's freaking out.
00:04:40.500
She might just be a hysterical woman, but I think she's probably freaking out because she knows how this goes.
00:04:46.560
How this has been going for the past few weeks is you have a viral internet video out of context accusing some white person of committing a racism.
00:04:56.700
And whether there's evidence for it or not, that person's life is ruined and the accuser faces no consequences at all.
00:05:01.960
He actually, ironically, uses a racial epithet.
00:05:05.340
It's one that everyone is using in popular culture now, Karen.
00:05:08.280
But Karen does have a racial quality to it in that it very specifically refers to a busybody white woman.
00:05:17.500
Imagine what a degenerate man you would have to be to have a woman becoming hysterical in front of you.
00:05:22.800
A woman that you don't know and you follow her home and get in her face and yell insults at her.
00:05:27.760
What a sick degenerate pervert you've got to be to do that.
00:05:32.660
She keeps freaking out and having this meltdown.
00:06:17.160
Karen, would you like to calm down and have a conversation?
00:06:28.640
The people who show up in these videos get their lives ruined.
00:06:31.500
And what he is saying, like, here's her license plate.
00:06:38.100
It would be much less threatening if he just punched her in the face and walked away.
00:06:41.920
Or like that man in New York threw a firecracker on a homeless person.
00:06:46.920
Because what he's saying here is, here's where she is.
00:06:51.900
So I actually think, I like to think I would not react in that way.
00:06:58.260
Just judging from this incident, this guy is a sick degenerate.
00:07:02.620
And I don't know if there are laws against what he's doing, where he is.
00:07:09.080
But if there aren't laws, then there should be laws.
00:07:11.560
And this guy should be punished for what he did.
00:07:13.580
Then you Google him and you find out, this guy, it's all a setup.
00:07:17.600
This wasn't because she flipped him off or anything.
00:07:31.660
He's accused people basically of racism before.
00:07:34.360
He considers himself an entertainer and a comedian and an actor and all sorts of things.
00:07:45.780
And he got what he wanted because we're talking about it.
00:07:47.600
But of course, we're talking about it because it trended.
00:07:49.720
That's what we are creating in this culture is make-believe.
00:07:54.920
There isn't racial bigotry going on all over the place.
00:08:03.080
And so degenerates like Carlos Dillard have to make it up.
00:08:10.920
I want to single him out because he behaved horribly and should be punished by the law for it.
00:08:34.680
We'll get to why it's so crazy that they're gone.
00:08:36.000
First, I got to thank our friends over at Eero.

00:09:58.940
You might be able to get the delicious treat, but it won't be called an Eskimo pie.
00:10:02.280
The company that produces it just stated, declared,
00:10:06.420
we are committed to being a part of the solution on racial equality.
00:10:09.920
We recognize that the term Eskimo is derogatory.
00:10:13.320
This move is part of a larger review to ensure our company and brands reflect our people values.
00:10:20.040
So the premise here is that Eskimo is a derogatory term.
00:10:31.920
I guess the CEO of the Nestle company didn't have time to Google this, but I had time to Google this.
00:10:36.860
As a matter of etymology, right, the root of this word, the word Eskimo comes from the Inuaymun word Eskimu, meaning a person who laces a snowshoe.
00:10:51.400
It does not have a pejorative meaning in origin.
00:10:54.580
Even Wikipedia admits it does not have a pejorative meaning in origin.
00:10:58.080
It's just some white liberals who decided that they would be offended on behalf of Eskimos, just like it was white liberals who decided to get offended on behalf of Native Americans and demanded that the Washington Redskins change their name, even though the Washington Redskins, nine out of 10 Native Americans surveyed, don't care about the Washington Redskins name.
00:11:19.460
Just like it was primarily white liberals pushing to cancel Aunt Jemima, a black character portrayed by a black model created by a black comedian.
00:11:32.000
Now, not all of the examples of make-believe America are so frivolous.
00:11:37.080
You thought, when you were looking over at Seattle, you thought that those idiots in Chaz Chop, Soy Malia, you thought that they were just one-off weirdos.
00:11:48.200
It's not just this strange social experiment happening within a six-block radius of Seattle.
00:11:58.620
The LARP, the live-action role play, is spreading.
00:12:09.220
It's very hard to keep all of it because they keep changing their name, too, but I think it currently is Bahaz, the Black House Autonomous Zone.
00:12:16.620
And the Black House Autonomous Zone is all the way in Washington, D.C., right across the way from the White House.
00:12:25.040
They've now taken over and vandalized that historic church, St. John's Church, that President Trump walked over to and held the Bible up.
00:12:32.720
They've sprayed their name, B-H-A-Z, on the church, and they are running roughshod over law and order there with total impunity.
00:12:42.940
You now have examples in this area of the rioters, I'm sorry, the peaceful protesters, screaming at the cops.
00:12:53.620
And the screams have a racial overtone to them.
00:12:57.460
So in one example, you have a Black man yelling at a Black woman, saying very insulting things.
00:13:21.060
She needs to have a whole self-internal work being done.
00:13:24.560
She needs to work through that trauma that has her out here, that internalized trauma.
00:13:32.920
You know, your ancestors got to be upset with you right now, sis.
00:13:37.160
If you want some real ones, you can remember that.
00:13:41.280
So as this dirtbag is spewing this bile at this woman, you can see she's just kind of
00:13:52.880
And this is a common theme I see with all these leftist protests, is it's these dirtbag
00:13:57.640
men saying vile things to women because, I guess, worries about sexism have gone totally
00:14:06.240
They've gone out the window in part, actually, because of feminism, because of this idea that
00:14:10.840
men and women are exactly the same, and so men shouldn't treat women in any sort of special
00:14:18.880
They follow them to where they park their cars in their driveway and film them.
00:14:25.160
But it takes on an even weirder racial element when in the name, they can't do two things
00:14:33.040
But then in the name of fighting racism, you now have white leftists screaming at black
00:14:39.840
cops in defense of black people who they're screaming at.
00:14:51.760
You're white and you're telling this to two black police officers.
00:14:59.660
Just because I'm white and I haven't experienced racism myself doesn't mean I can't fight for
00:15:07.860
Just because they're black doesn't mean they're not a part of the problem.
00:15:25.660
So speaking of hysterical women, obviously her argument doesn't make a lot of sense because
00:15:32.020
At one point, we're told white people are not allowed to say anything about this.
00:15:34.860
Then we're told that this woman says basically only white people in this situation should say
00:15:41.780
But then she says we shouldn't listen to those black people.
00:15:55.040
This is why I think it has to do with liberalism itself.
00:16:02.140
Liberalism, you're always liberating yourself from the oppressive past.
00:16:06.820
And we are now, we've become so liberated, so autonomous, we've liberated ourselves from
00:16:13.540
So this woman can say with a straight face that she is speaking to the black experience
00:16:18.140
in America with greater knowledge than the black people that she's screaming at.
00:16:23.360
That we need an autonomous zone within Washington, D.C., which is a federal zone within the United
00:16:31.480
Pretty soon, we're going to have an autonomous zone within an autonomous zone.
00:16:35.280
We have an autonomous zone within the autonomous zones, which are the segregated zones, which
00:16:47.380
This is why as intersectionality has progressed on the left, you've seen it's gone from gay
00:16:52.520
to gay and lesbian, to gay, lesbian, and bisexual, to gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, to LGBTQ.
00:17:05.160
This is why with gender, it's gone from men and women to men and women and intersex to men
00:17:10.220
and women and intersex and transgender to men and women to 56 genders.
00:17:20.840
And the more we become autonomous, the more we liberate ourselves, it seems the less relation
00:17:28.500
We've now liberated ourselves into an autonomous fantasy.
00:17:34.400
Is Trump ever going to use force against these people?
00:17:36.400
Is Trump ever going to restore any order to the country?
00:17:41.140
First, though, I've got to thank our friends over at Rock Auto.
00:17:45.160
Speaking of doing things yourself and being autonomous, that would be a good place to be
00:17:49.840
You don't have to rely on those brick and mortar auto parts stores that never have the parts
00:17:55.900
They probably order it actually from Rock Auto.
00:17:58.480
Then they just double the price and pass that on to you.
00:18:08.080
The thing I love about rockauto.com, especially for someone like me, I'm not the most handy
00:18:13.860
Even I can navigate their website, which is a real compliment to Rock Auto.
00:18:18.000
Even I can figure out which parts I want for my car.
00:18:26.160
They've been serving online auto parts customers for 20 years, which is more or less the entire
00:18:37.020
See all the parts available for your car or truck.
00:18:40.460
Write Knowles, K-N-O-W-L-E-S, in their How Did You Hear About Us box.
00:18:46.160
And then they will know that we sent you, rockauto.com, and enter Knowles in the How Did You Hear
00:18:54.300
President Trump has finally come out and said that he will use force against the Black
00:19:03.580
He tweeted out, he said, there will never be an autonomous zone in Washington, D.C.
00:19:08.040
If they try, they will be met with serious force.
00:19:10.220
Now, they are trying and they seem to have succeeded.
00:19:12.200
So the question is, is Trump going to use force or not use force?
00:19:14.940
We might not even be able to examine the answer to that question because when Trump tweeted
00:19:29.380
Imagine the audacity to censor a tweet from the president of the United States.
00:19:33.280
But they sent out a little notice after they covered it up.
00:19:36.400
They said, we've placed a public interest notice on this tweet for violating our policy
00:19:41.100
Specifically, the presence of a threat of harm against an identifiable group, a threat of
00:19:50.320
The top law enforcement official in the United States said he would enforce the law against
00:19:58.940
And Twitter said that that is abusive and it's a threat of harm against a group and they can't
00:20:06.360
As far as I'm concerned at this point, we should use any civil legal means necessary to shred
00:20:30.720
We all have to be on it as long as it exists because it is the public square.
00:20:34.140
They have a monopoly on the public square, but they shouldn't.
00:20:41.440
I can't take it anymore with conservatives who say, well, because I'm a conservative,
00:20:46.700
I think we should let some billionaire leftist socialist tech oligarchs control the flow of
00:20:52.600
information around our republic because I'm so conservative.
00:20:57.560
And I don't think they should get protections that they don't deserve.
00:21:00.000
And I don't think that they should, they should be able to control the public square
00:21:04.360
and that some unelected jerk tech billionaire ought to be able to censor the president of
00:21:13.140
It came from a recent action in Lafayette Park, the beginning of the Black House Autonomous
00:21:18.060
Zone, where rioters tried to pull down the famous statue there of Andrew Jackson.
00:21:24.100
So President Trump at this point said, I've authorized the federal government to arrest
00:21:28.080
anyone who vandalizes or destroys any monument, statue, or other such federal property in
00:21:32.360
the U.S. with up to 10 years in prison per the Veterans Memorial Preservation Act or such
00:21:38.660
This action is taken effective immediately, but may also be used retroactively for destruction
00:21:48.280
I hope every single one of these rioters rots in prison for a very long time.
00:21:52.340
The way to stop this kind of madness and violence is to meet it with force.
00:21:58.040
You cannot enforce the law without using force.
00:22:05.780
I mean, actually, the president admitted it in his rally the other day where he said,
00:22:12.420
look, I'm going to let it burn a little bit longer.
00:22:14.200
I'm going to let people see what democratic government looks like.
00:22:17.420
I understand that because one, it means that you don't need to worry about sending in force
00:22:23.000
and having another Kent state on your hands and having people accuse you of killing innocent
00:22:30.060
But this argument of, hey, everybody, look at what happens when you elect Democrats
00:22:34.160
is a little too clever by half when a Republican occupies the Oval Office.
00:22:40.260
Elect me, reelect me, and then I'll enforce the law.
00:22:44.280
Again, I understand why he's doing it, but it doesn't work.
00:22:48.180
I hope he uses force very quickly because if we don't enforce very basic laws and laws
00:22:54.720
where the president actually does have considerable influence, then what are we doing?
00:23:06.740
There is a way out of the play acting that the left is doing right now.
00:23:10.200
And that was just suggested by the founder of BET, Black Entertainment Television, Robert
00:23:15.220
Johnson, who suggested that BLM become a formal political party.
00:23:22.140
I've been convinced for a long time that 40 million African-Americans who tend to vote
00:23:27.880
as a block in one of the two parties, limit their leverage in getting action from both parties.
00:23:37.020
And I think it's time that African-Americans form an independent party, not be an appendage
00:23:43.540
of one party or ignored by the other party and using their leverage in a democracy to say we stand for things
00:23:54.940
that are principally focused on the interests of the 40 million African-Americans and not have that diluted
00:24:02.420
by trying to be a part of another party where the interests may diverge and oftentimes do diverge.
00:24:11.280
Now, I give this guy a little bit of credit because he's taking the political process much more seriously
00:24:20.040
And he's suggesting something more like what we see in Europe, which is instead of having the two main parties,
00:24:25.220
you have lots of little parties and lots of more specific interest groups and they form coalitions
00:24:34.880
I still think it's play acting because what he says here is that you've got black voters and they vote as a block.
00:24:41.480
Either for the Democratic Party or the Republican Party.
00:24:45.460
In so much as black voters vote as a block, they vote for Democrats.
00:24:48.600
They don't vote as a block for Republicans and they haven't in many decades.
00:24:53.220
At one point, they actually did vote heavily for Republicans, but they haven't at least in recent memory.
00:24:59.160
So what you would actually be doing if you created a BLM political party,
00:25:03.380
one, the odds that you actually got buy-in from a significant portion of black voters
00:25:07.120
for a radical party like that, I think, are pretty slim.
00:25:11.080
What you would, in effect, be doing is completely crippling the Democratic Party.
00:25:15.320
If it actually did work, the Democratic Party would fall apart.
00:25:18.460
The Democratic Party needs black voters and they need virtually all the black voters.
00:25:22.400
And if they lose any of them, then they're in serious trouble.
00:25:25.100
So fine by me, you know, if you want to start the BLM party and destroy the Democratic Party,
00:25:31.480
What this is also presuming is that the Black Lives Matter Party
00:25:34.540
actively represents the majority of black interests.
00:25:38.820
Black Lives Matter does not, does not have very much to do with black lives mattering.
00:25:43.860
Black Lives Matter is primarily ideological, not racial.
00:25:49.640
The founders of BLM admit that they are trained Marxists.
00:25:53.300
They admit that they're Marxists in their About Us page on their website.
00:25:56.820
They say that they want to tear down the nuclear family.
00:25:59.000
They call each other comrade and they want to abolish the police.
00:26:04.120
That is a radical Marxist party exploiting race for ideological ends.
00:26:09.940
So I don't think that is really going to happen either.
00:26:12.500
And the other reason that it's LARPing is it ties in with the bigger theme that we're
00:26:16.400
talking about all, all the time, which is it, it presumes that there is an anti-black
00:26:24.200
And that's why you need a black specific political party.
00:26:30.420
The only de jure racism, the only racism by law that we tolerate, racial discrimination
00:26:37.340
And it privileges black and Hispanic and some other racial minorities on things like it
00:26:44.820
being admitted to college or in job applications.
00:26:47.580
And it, it disadvantages white applicants and Asian applicants, which is why Asian students
00:26:52.580
sued Harvard university because they were discriminated against on the basis of their race.
00:26:58.080
That's the only racial discrimination on the books.
00:27:03.820
They, if there were real incidents of this, then you would see it, but there aren't just a
00:27:10.200
lot of hoaxes all the way to NASCAR, all the way to Jussie Smollier in Chicago and everywhere
00:27:20.600
And so you would be forming a political party over an imaginary problem.
00:27:26.880
That is probably not going to be very successful.
00:27:30.340
Now, there are some racial issues in the country, but the racial issues are mostly occurring when
00:27:38.060
there is racial offense given, it's given by the left and one of the left's darlings.
00:27:44.900
He is Jimmy Kimmel, the toast of Hollywood, the host of awards shows is in trouble because
00:27:50.100
he, uh, impersonated a lot of black actors, darkened his skin and, uh, use the N word
00:27:56.480
on tape and, uh, hosted a show called the man show and, uh, made lots of comments that
00:28:09.100
Did he stand firm and say, I'm a comedian, I'm telling jokes and you can't stop me?
00:28:18.260
We will get into some of the other make believe that we're all playing around in.
00:28:26.940
You people have gotten me to finally, even though I got a late start, beat Drew on the

I mean, that's all well and good, but over on my Michael Noles show YouTube channel, I
00:28:41.540
Now, if you wouldn't mind, would appreciate it.

00:29:32.160
He very famously, when he was hosting The Man Show, put black paint on his face and played
00:29:37.720
He said the N-word on joke Christmas albums in the 1990s.
00:29:49.840
He conveniently went on vacation a few days ago as this was all blowing up.
00:29:58.420
I have long been reluctant to address this, as I knew doing so would be celebrated as a
00:30:02.000
victory by those who equate apologies with weakness and cheers for leaders who use prejudice
00:30:07.300
So already, he's accusing his opponents of being racists.
00:30:13.380
There is nothing more important to me than your respect.
00:30:15.280
And I apologize to those who were genuinely hurt or offended by the makeup I wore or the words
00:30:21.280
On K-Rock Radio in the mid-90s, I did a recurring impression of the NBA player Carl Malone.
00:30:26.680
In the late 90s, I continued impersonating Malone on TV.
00:30:29.380
We hired makeup artists to make me look as much like Carl Malone as possible.
00:30:32.620
I never considered that this might be seen as anything other than an imitation of a fellow
00:30:37.780
One that had no more to do with Carl's skin color than it did with his bulging muscles
00:30:44.420
What he's saying is, oh, I didn't even think about the race.
00:30:49.340
I was doing an impersonation of a black person, which involves darkening my skin.
00:31:02.980
They were debating when Megyn Kelly went over to network TV.
00:31:10.380
And she said, well, you know, when I was a kid, here, I'll find the exact quote.
00:31:14.520
When I was a kid, that was okay as long as you were dressing up as like a character.
00:31:19.280
Not that you would be mocking an entire race, but if you were going to go for Halloween as
00:31:24.340
Diana Ross, for instance, you darkened your skin, you're going as a character, that was
00:31:29.880
She said the same exact thing that Jimmy Kimmel said here, except she was fired.
00:31:39.040
So Jimmy Kimmel now had to apologize because he actually wore the stuff.
00:31:43.660
He said the N word on tape, did this for many years.
00:31:47.440
And his apology, the reason that Jimmy Kimmel will likely be able to keep his job, his apology
00:31:53.100
is the very same thing that Megyn Kelly said that got her fired.
00:32:03.680
Back in the day, Jimmy Kimmel was somewhat funny.
00:32:06.180
Jimmy Kimmel used to make kind of off-color, racy jokes.
00:32:09.540
And they were funny, as those jokes tend to be funny, right?
00:32:14.560
Comedy is not milquetoast, approved, politically correct stuff.
00:32:26.640
So he used to be funny when he wasn't afraid of the woke PC mob.
00:32:42.800
Just like they just discovered this K-rock album where he said the N-word a bunch of times.
00:32:50.640
They just found out that Jimmy hosted the Man Show.
00:32:54.400
Because it was on TV on Comedy Central when I was a kid.
00:32:58.880
The Man Show was kind of a tongue-in-cheek, self-effacing view of what men are.
00:33:05.280
So portray men as kind of just like fat slobs who just want to drink beer and look at hot women wearing bikinis and things like that.
00:33:12.740
The intro actually just featured a bunch of girls jumping on trampolines.
00:33:46.200
Obviously, very tongue-in-cheek kind of introduction.
00:33:53.900
It was kind of a low-budget show in the 90s and very good.
00:33:59.320
One bit that they did on that show, probably the most famous bit from the whole show,
00:34:05.460
And it was a petition against women's suffrage.
00:34:08.400
And the idea being that people didn't know what the word suffrage meant.
00:34:11.900
They thought it was like suffering or something.
00:34:13.660
So they would get women and liberal men to sign this petition to end women's suffrage.
00:34:28.900
We're trying to stop the suffrage and the suffrage of women in this country.
00:34:41.360
My mother, two of my aunts, and my sister are all suffraged last year.
00:34:52.120
It's the amendment that gives women the right to vote.
00:35:03.660
Does anybody really believe that Jimmy Kimmel is sorry for telling these jokes?
00:35:09.300
Does anybody really believe that anybody's offended by those jokes?
00:35:16.680
By the way, I don't think we should defend Jimmy Kimmel here.
00:35:19.640
I think we have unilaterally disarmed far too long.
00:35:24.180
Jimmy Kimmel has become a total left-wing hack.
00:35:28.760
And I think we've got to stop playing by a completely different set of rules than the left plays by.
00:35:34.260
When you're in a battle, your opponent gets a say.
00:35:36.380
And it is simply surrender to not be willing to actually engage in those rules.
00:35:47.120
He's another guy who used to be shocking and now he's the toast of Hollywood.
00:35:52.320
No comedian, including Jimmy Kimmel, has sucked up to Hollywood more in recent years than Howard Stern.
00:36:07.080
They caught him on tape years and years ago during a bit using the N-word as part of a comedy routine.
00:36:14.120
So Jimmy was confronted, or Jimmy, Freudian slip.
00:36:16.700
Howard was confronted about this on The View and Howard completely denied it.
00:36:38.800
And my belief was, hey, say it out in the open.
00:36:49.120
Actually, what happened is Howard Stern put on actual blackface.
00:36:52.660
He wasn't just pretending to be some other guy.
00:36:54.480
He put on actual blackface with the white all around his lips.
00:37:02.500
Now there is more to this sketch, which we'll talk about at the end.
00:37:07.120
Hey, Robin, what does you call a black rocket scientist?
00:37:13.660
I want you to give us a kiss, you smelly, cog-haired s**t.
00:37:20.760
Oh, you can say whatever you want, you smelly n-word.
00:37:31.400
You can call her whatever you want, but you don't talk to me that way or I'll leave.
00:37:35.500
Well, don't let the door hit you on your big black ass, mama, on the way out of here.
00:37:43.720
So that's a little different than the way Howard Stern presented it on The View, right?
00:37:50.040
For those of you who weren't just listening, but who have actually seen this sketch,
00:37:53.780
two of the three performers in this sketch are black.
00:37:56.480
One of them is Robin Quivers, who is longtime sidekick on The Howard Stern Show.
00:38:00.980
And the other one is Sherman Hemsley, who plays George Jefferson,
00:38:03.500
one of the most famous black comedic actors of the 20th century.
00:38:08.920
Because Howard Stern wasn't playing Howard Stern.
00:38:12.600
Ted Danson, a white liberal, great, great actor, love Ted Danson.
00:38:16.920
But he had this infamous moment where he wore blackface at an event.
00:38:21.380
And his defense was that he was dating Whoopi Goldberg, very much black, who was also at the event.
00:38:26.240
And so what Howard Stern was doing was a sort of satire of Ted Danson performing a racist routine
00:38:35.020
in front of Whoopi Goldberg and using Whoopi Goldberg's blackness as an excuse for doing the routine.
00:38:43.480
Does anybody think that Howard Stern is a racial bigot and was actually doing racism?
00:38:48.840
No, the sketch was actually a sketch making fun of racism and making fun of excuses for racism.
00:38:55.700
Although, actually, on that, does anyone think that Ted Danson's a racist?
00:39:04.220
And yet, could you imagine if that were a conservative?
00:39:08.620
Could you imagine if it were Steven Crowder who did that bit?
00:39:29.200
If they go too far, they'll lose their audience.
00:39:31.700
But to gin up this AstroTurf campaign, you've got to be canceled no more.
00:39:39.820
And yet, we have to let them follow the logic of their own ideology.
00:39:50.700
It's sad, though, because what it means is none of this is serious and our culture is no longer serious.
00:39:56.400
In Oregon right now, there's a mask order, you know, you've got to, because of the virus.
00:40:02.300
You've now got to wear a mask in public, but not if you're black.
00:40:08.580
Lincoln County, Oregon health officials announced last week all residents must wear face coverings
00:40:15.060
when they're in public places if they're likely to come within six feet of other people who are not of their own household.
00:40:21.240
But people of color do not have to follow the new rule if they're worried about racial profiling.
00:40:29.660
Which means, as far as I can tell, that means there are two options.
00:40:32.880
The whole idea with the masks is that the coronavirus is super-duper deadly and super-duper contagious
00:40:38.440
So you've got to wear the mask everywhere you go.
00:40:42.760
One, coronavirus is not super-duper deadly, right, because they're saying some people don't have to wear the masks.
00:40:52.040
And white supremacy is not a real thing because people of color, which is a new term,
00:40:59.080
but I don't know if it's the term everyone has to use now, I guess,
00:41:01.620
that group of people gets a special privilege that the white people don't get.
00:41:06.060
They don't have to wear the masks all the time, but the white people do by threat of law.
00:41:08.880
So, either coronavirus, it's been a little bit hyped, and there's no such thing as white supremacy,
00:41:17.220
or coronavirus is super-duper deadly, like they're all telling us, all the health experts,
00:41:22.040
and there definitely is white supremacy, and maybe this county in Oregon is being run by the Ku Klux
00:41:26.900
plan or something because they're saying, yeah, black people don't wear the masks.
00:41:31.780
To me, it seems more likely that it's the former situation that the media have actually just been
00:41:35.580
lying to us this whole time and exaggerating things this whole time.
00:41:38.880
Than it is that there's this awful, racist, anti-black policy going on in Oregon.
00:41:54.280
A name I did not think would be involved in today's show, but he has injected himself into
00:41:58.560
these debates because as the statues are coming down of Washington, Jefferson, Columbus,
00:42:02.960
they took down a statue of Teddy Roosevelt at the museum that only exists because of Teddy
00:42:07.520
Roosevelt in New York, and what Ben Stiller suggested is it's good, yeah, take down Teddy
00:42:11.580
Roosevelt and replace him with a statue of Robin Williams.
00:42:16.260
Robin Williams playing Teddy Roosevelt in that movie.
00:42:23.320
Now, it's just a little joke from Ben Stiller, but the joke tells you a lot about our culture
00:42:36.480
We can't handle the real eternal political questions.
00:42:44.220
We can only handle the make-believe, the pretend, the cartoon, the joke.
00:42:54.220
Our culture has become a joke, and that's what we handle.
00:42:58.820
We are now a country that tears down statues of Teddy Roosevelt and would prefer to erect
00:43:10.280
I think we may be becoming a nation of clowns ourselves, and I'm at least glad that we're
00:43:18.720
I opened the show, and I said, there's just something in liberalism that seems to be like
00:43:25.100
a ticking time bomb almost, because you're always liberating yourself from the oppressive
00:43:32.220
No matter how good times are in liberalism, you've got to have a kind of antipathy for the
00:43:36.280
past, because now we're so much freer and more liberated and autonomous and emancipated.
00:43:40.720
And that goes on and on and on progressively until you get to some utopian future.
00:43:47.700
And I think a lot of people, even conservatives, think that the time we're living in right now,
00:44:01.960
Oh, man, are we so much better than those dumb old-timey people, our ancestors, who came
00:44:12.120
Kind of a sad story, but it's funny nonetheless.
00:44:17.460
It was a painting done by the Baroque painter, Botolome Esteban Murillo.
00:44:25.520
So the owner of this painting went to an amateur painting restorer.
00:44:33.200
The first attempt was absolutely disastrous, completely destroyed the painting, took this
00:44:39.580
beautiful Baroque painting of the Blessed Virgin, and turned it into what looks like a third
00:44:46.280
So then they tried again, made it look like a first grader's assignment.
00:44:51.460
Then they tried again, and it looks like a three-year-old finger painted it.
00:44:55.300
They took a beautiful work of art from hundreds of years ago and made it worse, and then worse, and then worse.
00:45:12.160
And this has happened before, actually, in Spain, again.
00:45:14.080
There's a fresco of Jesus in 2012, and an amateur painter, this woman, Cecilia Jimenez, attempted to
00:45:23.080
restore the Ece Omo painting, and same results.
00:45:31.180
They took a beautiful painting and then just turned it into what could be finger paint.
00:45:36.080
That's the perfect encapsulation of our culture.
00:45:42.640
Now, one of the Black Lives Matter lead activists is calling for people to smash stained glass
00:45:48.960
windows and statues and icons at churches, and that is happening, at least in Europe.
00:45:55.820
I guess they did deface the, they tried to burn it down and then deface the St. John's Church.
00:46:00.580
All of this is happening, and we're congratulating ourselves.
00:46:04.340
All the beautiful art, all the beautiful culture, all the beautiful political system, all the
00:46:08.760
We are tearing it to shreds, lighting it on fire, all on the premise that we're so much
00:46:22.480
And yet the people who are doing it are so divorced from reality.
00:46:26.220
They are so lost in their own make-believe, in their own fantasy, that they can't even see it.
00:46:31.840
They think that actually reality is the opposite of what it is.
00:46:35.960
They think up is down, good is bad, and law is lawlessness, and on and on and on.
00:46:47.840
And something tells me that just like that painting restoration, things are going to get worse and
00:46:56.840
But for the near future, I think I mentioned this yesterday, the only way out is going to be
00:47:03.240
By the way, speaking of terrible news, there is not going to be any show tomorrow because
00:47:08.420
I am going to take a quick little jaunt to Washington, D.C.
00:47:12.080
I want to throw my hat in the ring to become the president of the BEHAZ, the autonomous zone
00:47:19.780
Maybe I'll run against Kamala or something in California.
