Candace Owens - BREAKING： My FIRST Prison Phone Call With Harvey Weinstein ｜ Candace Ep 153

00:00:00.000 All right, you guys, happy Thursday. There is so much going on in the world. It looks as though the first phase of the Epstein files have been released. And to be honest, it doesn't really look like much like a nothing burger. Also, remember Ari Emanuel, WME exec CEO, came out to defend Blake and Ryan against Justin Baldoni, Baldoni, whatever his name is.

00:00:19.800 You know, Ari, the preschool rhyming tough guy in Hollywood, too cool to learn his clients' names. Well, now Freakonomous is saying they were the ones that hosted him when he said this, that the footage, the video footage of this has been lost. So we will never be able to see that interview. Yeah, right.

00:00:35.780 But first, and before we also discuss the Tate brothers, they just landed on American soil and people are up in arms.

00:00:42.120 I first wanted to tell you guys that I got the legal clearance to speak to you about my prison phone call with Harvey Weinstein and what brought me to do this series. And so I'm so excited. So let's jump right back in. Welcome back to Candace.

00:01:05.780 Also, sorry, we're 30 minutes late. I've actually done four hours of media today. So I have said a lot of words. Okay, so where do we begin with this? My husband, obviously, you guys know, he is the entire brains behind the production and part of his job as my spouse is to keep me out of trouble.

00:01:24.680 You know, make sure that I file my taxes against my better instincts and also to make sure that if I sign a contract, I remember that I signed a contract and I don't just blurt out everything to you guys as I do because I just feel like I'm talking on the phone and I sometimes say way too much.

00:01:40.080 So last week I was telling you, I was really excited to announce the next series, but there were a couple of legal hurdles that my husband was dealing with.

00:01:46.720 And I can now tell you that that legal hurdle was that when I had first begun speaking with Harvey Weinstein, we had signed this limited NDA that I had completely forgotten about.

00:01:57.460 And we had to go through some effort to have that NDA, to have me released from that NDA so that I could speak about the topic without me being risked, you know, a risk of being sued.

00:02:07.120 Again, all my husband's headaches, but I'm excited to tell you about that first phone call because you're probably all wondering how, how did Candace Owens end up speaking with Harvey Weinstein?

00:02:18.740 As I said to you guys, we have had and still have really nothing in common.

00:02:25.140 It is really stunning, truly stunning.

00:02:28.160 And I think actually one of the more compelling things about he and I coming together on anything.

00:02:33.360 So the story actually begins in November of 2022.

00:02:38.380 Like that is how deep I am on this.

00:02:40.280 And now that you know how I am in terms of organizing like a psychopath and looking at timelines and really deeply researching things so that the public can be invited to do the same.

00:02:51.180 You can only imagine if I've had the runway since 2022 to do this.

00:02:55.620 November of 2022 is when I was contacted by a third party to my shock and surprise.

00:03:03.000 And they asked me if I would just take a look at the Harvey case and if I would maybe be interested in interviewing him.

00:03:11.380 And to be clear, this is back when Harvey Weinstein was in Los Angeles because he was very soon going to be eventually convicted on a on rape charges.

00:03:23.380 So we begin this conversation and I'm instantly like, yeah, of course, I would love the opportunity to interview Harvey Weinstein, obviously, for no other reason other than the fact that he is Harvey Weinstein.

00:03:34.940 And it makes for a very compelling interview, a man that had so much power who got taken down by the Me Too movement.

00:03:41.880 So we had a little bit of back and forth, me and this third party, and they said, OK, well, they want to wait until he's actually convicted that following month.

00:03:50.080 He was to see if he's convicted rather that father following month in December.

00:03:54.700 Harvey Weinstein was convicted in L.A.

00:03:57.140 Fast forward to January.

00:03:59.200 That's when we got into our back forth about this sort of limited NDA.

00:04:03.540 And the next thing I knew, I was being patched in on a prison line to speak with Harvey Weinstein.

00:04:11.140 And this is a day, this is a chapter in a future autobiography of my life that I will never forget because it was surreal in so many ways.

00:04:19.740 It was just the opposite of what I was expecting.

00:04:22.860 I guess to reflect upon it, what I was expecting was to speak with a defeated man.

00:04:29.280 He is a person that is sitting in a prison cell.

00:04:32.920 And the way that the third party person presented it to me was that essentially, and I assumed maybe partially, everybody in the mainstream media had lied about him.

00:04:44.500 And now he was maybe getting desperate and wanted to speak with me.

00:04:48.300 And I can be completely honest.

00:04:50.440 Like I said, my motivation behind taking the phone call was, I think Harvey Weinstein's guilty, but who cares?

00:04:56.560 I just would really like the opportunity to interview him about his life and how this all happened and how somebody could be where he was in life and then fall.

00:05:05.660 And I've already confessed to you, I thought Harvey Weinstein was guilty because there were 107 women, just to be clear, okay?

00:05:16.180 107 women who came forth and made accusations from him.

00:05:21.620 He sexually assaulted me.

00:05:23.640 He did this. 0.99

00:05:24.400 You know, he sexually abused me.

00:05:26.120 Whatever it was, there were just too many accusations.

00:05:29.000 The media had completely flooded the zone in a way that made it impossible for me to believe that he could be anything but guilty.

00:05:36.000 And like I said, I say this as someone who takes pride in always looking beneath, looking, reading in between the lines and looking beneath the layer of social media manipulation and of mainstream media manipulation.

00:05:49.880 But I fell for it, okay?

00:05:51.640 I will just admit that.

00:05:52.380 I will own that.

00:05:52.900 So I just remember the casual demeanor that I had as I was being patched in.

00:05:59.720 Like I was sitting like this, for those of you that are listening on audio, just sort of leaned back in a chair in this small cubicle.

00:06:06.620 Like, yeah, well, this guy's got to let me take this interview and this will be a nice little introductory phone call.

00:06:12.780 Nothing to worry about here.

00:06:15.700 He gets patched in.

00:06:16.720 He says, hello.

00:06:18.720 Harvey Weinstein's voice is like a growl.

00:06:21.340 And I, it's like, hello.

00:06:23.820 That was actually really good what I did there.

00:06:25.740 Hello, you know?

00:06:27.960 And the first thing he says to me, I kid you not, okay?

00:06:32.220 I don't understand how you can support Donald Trump.

00:06:39.040 Okay.

00:06:40.560 Whoa.

00:06:42.320 Stop everything.

00:06:44.120 What is happening?

00:06:45.800 What are we talking about?

00:06:47.360 This has nothing to do with politics.

00:06:48.580 My understanding is you just want me to do an interview with you.

00:06:52.620 I am suddenly saying to him, yeah, and I'm answering and kind of recalculating the conversation and explaining why I support Donald Trump.

00:07:03.720 And, yeah, that's a known thing.

00:07:05.700 Shouldn't you have already known that I support that?

00:07:07.400 Why are we on the phone?

00:07:08.840 And I just sort of answer.

00:07:09.800 And I think I fumbled some just, you know, the real reason why I support him, talks about the economy and, like, who cares?

00:07:14.800 And then he sort of gets into, like, what about Kanye, right?

00:07:20.920 So I'm fresh off of my Kanye in Paris wearing the White Lives Matter shirt, and he's asking me questions about that.

00:07:29.060 And he says, you know, I give a lot of money to the ADL.

00:07:31.800 And I'm going, okay, here we go.

00:07:33.860 I'm suddenly realizing that this is not the conversation I thought that we were going to be having.

00:07:40.300 I have no idea why I'm on this phone call.

00:07:42.380 And then he says to me, why would I go with you?

00:07:45.980 And he tells me that he's speaking with three other people who want to do this interview, who have much better experience and a way further reach than I have, all things that are objectively true.

00:07:57.620 He then says, I've never even heard of this company you work for.

00:08:01.600 He mispronounces the company that I was working for at the time.

00:08:04.480 And I realized at that moment that I was being big-timed for Harvey Weinstein by Harvey Weinstein.

00:08:10.560 And I just sort of sat up straight and recognized that Harvey Weinstein is still Harvey Weinstein.

00:08:17.460 And he's making me pitch myself.

00:08:20.480 Like, I suddenly felt like I was trying out for the cheerleading team.

00:08:23.700 Like, I suddenly realized I'm auditioning for something and I have no idea, I had no idea I was going to be auditioning for something.

00:08:31.260 And he's very powerful.

00:08:32.640 And I want to communicate that to you guys.

00:08:34.840 Harvey Weinstein is still very powerful.

00:08:37.700 He is brilliant.

00:08:38.840 He is not in prison because he was not innately intelligent and powerful.

00:08:47.300 And I suddenly was nervous.

00:08:49.180 It was so strange.

00:08:49.840 I was nervous.

00:08:50.520 And I'm going, why am I suddenly nervous trying to pitch myself to get this interview that I thought I had in the bag?

00:08:56.480 And this guy is sitting in a cell.

00:08:58.080 And I'm having to recalculate and recalibrate all of this very quickly as I'm on this phone.

00:09:02.520 Then he named someone who is, as a fact, one of the biggest and most influential media people in the world.

00:09:10.960 Someone that he is friends with, who he was in talks to do the interview with.

00:09:15.340 Not exactly someone that I could compete with, so to speak.

00:09:18.560 Like, I'm just Candace Owens and I'm nowhere near as big of these people.

00:09:23.340 I have never been in the mainstream media.

00:09:25.200 The mainstream media doesn't like Candace Owens. 1.00

00:09:27.000 And it was obvious to me at that moment that he was essentially taking this phone call to entertain his third-party friend.

00:09:35.080 And it kind of clicked and it dawned on me that that person was lobbying for him to do the interview with me.

00:09:40.900 That person was a fan of Candace Owens.

00:09:43.640 That person believes that if I took a look at this case, I would actually give it a fair shake on the basis of past investigations that I had done.

00:09:51.940 And she was really saying to him, you should do it with her.

00:09:56.760 And he was disagreeing.

00:09:58.780 So he was just on his phone to entertain a friend, in my view.

00:10:03.020 I really felt that.

00:10:05.120 And even though she felt I was the right person for the job, Harvey clearly did not.

00:10:08.860 He did not think that I had the experience.

00:10:10.540 And he still very much lives in the world of Miramax.

00:10:14.200 He very much lives in the world of who is the best Hollywood person.

00:10:18.040 He spoke to me about the right composers if I was going to do a docu-series.

00:10:22.560 You know, I'm not even thinking I'm music composers.

00:10:24.820 What are we even speaking about?

00:10:25.660 I thought this was going to be about a couple of interviews.

00:10:28.020 Didn't think that we had the budget to do it in the right way.

00:10:31.880 I mean, you just wouldn't even believe that sort of a conversation.

00:10:34.460 It wasn't what I was expecting because he's still a visionary.

00:10:38.160 He still wants to make movies.

00:10:40.480 He still wants to tell stories in ways that are beautiful.

00:10:43.120 And it's weird to say this, but there was something about the conversation that registered to me as naive.

00:10:52.600 And I'm speaking about him.

00:10:54.360 It was it seemed in the retrospect, very naive to me, that he still believed in the beast that took him down.

00:11:02.480 Do you know what I'm saying?

00:11:03.700 Harvey Weinstein still believed in the mainstream media apparatus.

00:11:07.540 He still believed in Hollywood.

00:11:09.200 He still believed in the power of his friends.

00:11:13.400 The very same thing, the very same apparatus that took him down, he believed in.

00:11:19.540 And he just didn't know what I was.

00:11:22.300 So at this point, I guess I sort of gathered myself and I started pushing back more forcefully.

00:11:26.700 Like I was like, OK, I got this.

00:11:28.760 Like I'm actually now just got to be Candace Owens.

00:11:30.960 And I got to start talking to him like he's talking to me because I'm in a business meeting.

00:11:35.700 I didn't expect to be in a business meeting with somebody that's been in prison, has been sitting in prison for a year, at least a year.

00:11:42.720 And that there was a one moment where I knew that I had gotten him, you know, like I had sort of defeated him, so to speak.

00:11:50.940 If we were just kind of going back forth, riffraffing like New Yorkers negotiating a business deal.

00:11:56.100 There was the moment where it clicked for him.

00:11:57.880 And I think the moment that I wrangled it away from the mainstream people that had wanted to do this sit down with him, he said, and obviously I'm paraphrasing here, but he said about that person who was going to interview him.

00:12:13.680 You know, I've been friends with her for years.

00:12:15.880 She knows that I didn't do these things.

00:12:18.620 I said, you know what, Harvey, you've got a lot of powerful friends.

00:12:21.740 I'll admit that you've got a lot of powerful friends in Hollywood.

00:12:25.260 And where are they all now?

00:12:26.520 Have any of them used their platform to speak out?

00:12:30.220 Has that individual used her platform to speak out and to say to the public that she thinks that you're innocent of the reasons that you've been convicted?

00:12:40.440 Where are they now?

00:12:42.100 And he did this sort of growl think that he does, which was like, genuinely, this is the sound effect.

00:12:49.080 And I could tell that it hit.

00:12:52.000 And he said back to me, they all turned their backs on me.

00:12:56.100 And I said, yeah, well, I'm not your friend.

00:12:59.220 And we obviously have nothing in common in terms of our politics, the causes that we support.

00:13:06.900 But I can guarantee you that if I look into something and I believe that there is something there, I will stand up against the entire world to say something that I believe to be true.

00:13:17.740 Okay?

00:13:18.880 And I think that was the turning point.

00:13:20.320 I think that is how we got to today.

00:13:22.720 And I'm excited that at the end of this series, you guys will be able to hear a conversation between me and Harvey Weinstein.

00:13:30.860 It will, I think, just explode the world.

00:13:33.600 I want to remind you guys now something about Harvey, just a little bit about the background of these cases, which we will begin getting into next week.

00:13:41.420 Because, like I said, 107 women coming out and you probably have no idea why he is in prison.

00:13:47.440 Harvey Weinstein was sentenced in 2020 to 23 years in total in New York alone.

00:13:54.640 Okay?

00:13:54.900 23 years in New York.

00:13:55.880 20 of those years were for criminal sexual assault in the first degree that was stemming from an accusation made from a production assistant who worked on Project Runway.

00:14:07.680 Her name is Mimi Haley.

00:14:09.600 I am telling you her name because she has come forward.

00:14:12.940 So this is not, I'm not like, you know, unmasking a victim here.

00:14:16.540 All of these people have come forward and spoken to the press and done media.

00:14:19.840 The other three years that he received in New York were for criminal, was for criminal rape in the third degree of a woman named Jessica Mann.

00:14:29.700 Again, just to be clear, I'm telling you the names of these individuals and we do not have to hide these names because they have already outed themselves proudly.

00:14:37.780 Then in April of last year, so after four years spent in prison, the New York appellate courts reversed the decision of the lower courts and ordered a new trial.

00:14:47.740 They claimed that the original trial had been prejudiced by witnesses who were able to give testimony with claims that were unrelated to the charges at hand.

00:15:00.040 In other words, they had allowed emotion and storytelling to flood the courtroom where in most circumstances they would say, this is not relevant.

00:15:07.240 You can't say this here.

00:15:08.180 You can't just like color the jury with flowery stories.

00:15:10.620 This was a very big decision, which should not be ignored.

00:15:14.800 And I will tell you, having looked into these cases, that was the right decision.

00:15:19.120 I think, and I'm going out on a limb here, I think that as we start going through these cases, you are going to be like I was, jaw on the floor, shocked.

00:15:27.880 And you will want to conduct your own research and you are going to wonder what the hell happens inside courtrooms.

00:15:37.420 I want you guys to know his retrial begins on April 15th of this year.

00:15:42.020 It's why I wanted to begin this series, because I want everyone paying attention to the trial.

00:15:46.300 And I have no doubt that you will want to pay attention this time around once I give you some basic facts about just some strange context that the media chose to leave out about some strange things that happened in those courtrooms.

00:15:59.660 OK, and the case in Los Angeles, for which he was found guilty in December of 2022, he was sentenced to an additional 16 years in prison for the forcible rape of Eugenia Chernyshova.

00:16:14.780 This is the wildest case.

00:16:18.680 And I know there are Reddit beads of people who never got the attention that they deserved for following these cases step by step, the Internet sleuths.

00:16:27.980 And I have to tell you, as I fell down the rabbit hole and looked at what you wrote, it is the craziest case that I have ever I've ever read in my life.

00:16:36.280 I mean, this is it puts everything to bed.

00:16:38.820 The Eugenia Chernyshova one is it rendered me speechless.

00:16:43.260 And to be clear, there were multiple women who brought a trial against Harvey Weinstein.

00:16:49.980 We started with one hundred and seven.

00:16:51.380 We got it dwindled.

00:16:52.800 Now, Eugenia was the only person, despite four women who brought a case against him in Los in Los Angeles.

00:16:58.400 She was the only one that was able to earn a conviction.

00:17:00.800 And the details, like I said, are just going to shock you or was the only one that lends a conviction.

00:17:07.580 What I can say is that I've never changed my stance on the Me Too movement.

00:17:13.760 And this is perhaps why this third party individual sought me out at the very beginning.

00:17:19.740 She knew that when everybody loved the Me Too movement, I instantly said this is going to be a threat to due process and that I have remained steady on this point, defending people who I really politically disagreed with.

00:17:34.140 People like Matt Lauer.

00:17:35.080 When I looked at the details of his case, it seemed pointedly ridiculous that they were claiming or trying to present him as a rapist in the media.

00:17:42.220 I remained objective about things and know that even if you don't love a person or you think a person is immoral or wrong or cheating, as a lot of these men are definitively cheating.

00:17:52.460 And they are definitively abusing their power and the dynamics of their relationships, whether it be with employees or actresses, that is entirely different than referring to someone as a rapist.

00:18:06.460 And despite those thoughts about the Me Too movement, never in a million years did I think that biases would then arrive into the courtroom.

00:18:16.300 I think I've always had faith in our court system.

00:18:20.840 And now that's beginning to change.

00:18:23.400 Now I'm beginning to wonder if our courtrooms have been politicized, if when a movement grows so big, whether it's Black Lives Matter or Me Too, somebody has to hang, if you know what I'm saying.

00:18:35.120 And I'm really excited to bring forth this series because it allows us to go backwards.

00:18:40.140 It allows us to go from it getting so crazy that somebody who is as perfectly innocent as I believe he is as Justin Baldoni is now suffering the consequences because we didn't do the right thing years ago by objectively analyzing things about people who are definitely not puppies.

00:18:59.140 Puppies, like I said, people like Harvey Weinstein.

00:19:02.700 So I am very much looking forward to presenting to you all beginning next week, our newest series, as we mentioned a couple of days ago, Harvey Speaks.

00:19:13.220 And, yeah, I just I am really, really looking forward to showing you guys this.

00:19:19.220 And you, like I said, are going to be positively shocked about the details of this case.

00:19:25.880 It is in and of itself a Hollywood movie that is worth producing.

00:19:31.000 And, yeah, I'm grateful that Harvey's team has sort of trusted me to just do what I do best.

00:19:37.220 And I've said to him, look, I told him directly a million times, I think you're an immoral man.

00:19:41.520 And I cannot, after seeing all this, see you as anything but an immoral man.

00:19:46.300 Yes, you're obviously a brilliant businessman and you're still and you're a tough negotiator and you're a powerful person.

00:19:51.080 But I will do this case justice and I have no doubt that you guys are going to be in for a journey.

00:20:00.140 So you're going to need to get your journals out next week as we map out the Harvey Weinstein files.

00:20:06.040 Harvey Speaks.

00:20:07.500 All right, guys, before we get into everybody just losing their minds on X today because there's so much happening, the Epstein files.

00:20:14.780 We've got Tate in the news.

00:20:16.740 They're back on American soil, Ron DeSantis speaking out against American citizens on American soil.

00:20:23.560 And, of course, Ari Emanuel, I want to remind you about Planned Parenthood because we know they have been spending millions to target vulnerable women.

00:20:30.980 And the answer to that is pre-born, which I'm very passionate about the work that they do.

00:20:35.000 Because while Planned Parenthood is convincing them that the abortion pill is a quick, easy solution, it's not true.

00:20:41.180 It just isn't true.

00:20:41.840 There's so much devastation that can follow.

00:20:43.260 I know this from friends, pain, regret, the reality that you've ended a life and there's a lot of tears.

00:20:48.720 And pre-born kind of steps in through innovative technology.

00:22:31.600 Okay, so we spoke about Ari Emanuel.

00:22:34.040 Big hot shots at WME.

00:22:37.700 Yeah, so every client is on his roster, and there's no one higher up than him, essentially.

00:22:43.380 And he comes from a very powerful family, Rahm Emanuel being his brother, Zeke Emanuel being his other brother.

00:22:48.980 They are just running it politically, socially, and you just don't get a bigger agent than Ari Emanuel, who right now is trying to take WME private, owns UFC, and the WWE.

00:23:03.620 Yeah, WWE, the wrestling as well.

00:23:05.560 They just kind of wrangled that from Vince McMahon.

00:23:07.660 And so, yeah, he's one of those guys that kind of speaks like he thinks that he's in an HBO flick.

00:23:13.420 You know, like it's Succession.

00:23:14.760 You can tell, oh, Justin Baloney, Baloney, phony, ha, ha, ha, ha, I'm so powerful.

00:23:21.440 It's just annoying. 0.84

00:23:22.220 People like that are just so annoying.

00:23:24.400 Life is not a movie script.

00:23:25.680 Just try being a human being.

00:23:27.200 And so news had broken, I think it was two weeks ago, that he had joined the Freakonomics podcast, the Freakonomics radio, and they had done an event that was on stage.

00:23:38.460 People attended this event, and it ran live on their radio where he had just insulted Justin Baloney and made him feel really small and obviously did not read the room.

00:23:47.540 And by read the room, I mean read the general public response to people feeling like a bunch of A-list Hollywood bullies need to be shown that bullying is unacceptable, right?

00:23:58.540 And so he didn't read that room, and he decided, I'm going to bully him a little bit more and also condemn people on social media and pretend that Ryan and Blake are good people.

00:24:07.660 Even though you're reading your messages and forming your own opinions, I'm going to remind you that we are the media, we have the power, and you should stop doing that.

00:24:14.740 He really just kind of went so far as to say, like, you know, social media has been great, but it's sometimes bad.

00:24:20.620 Why is it bad, Ari?

00:24:21.520 Because we're able to get around, we're able to get around your PR agents, we're able to get around your pieces in The Hollywood Reporter and your pieces in TMZ and your pieces in The Cut, which we'll get to later, who just wrote an amazing hit piece on me and those of you that are watching my podcast.

00:24:37.440 Yeah.

00:24:38.080 Anyways, it was a bad look.

00:24:39.580 It did not make anybody feel more warmed to Blake and Ryan.

00:24:43.000 And now it's interesting because the host of Freakonomics, Stephen Dubner, is now coming out and saying, actually, that episode is never going to air on our podcast.

00:24:53.160 And they're entitling it The Show That Never Happened and saying that there were just tech issues with the venue during their live show, and they apparently just never recorded that episode.

00:25:04.140 Take a listen to Stephen Dubner.

00:25:06.120 It turns out that the theater's PA system had crashed.

00:25:10.020 We had been told earlier that it was a new system, state-of-the-art, but, well, I don't know what happened.

00:25:16.780 The next hour was pretty chaotic.

00:25:19.020 The microphones aren't working.

00:25:20.780 Speakers aren't working.

00:25:21.880 Keyboard player can't get any sound out of his keyboard setup.

00:25:25.120 Meanwhile, Ari Emanuel, the most famous agent in show business, is waiting backstage. 0.98

00:25:31.740 What the f*** are these people doing?

00:25:33.580 And then suddenly the system starts working again, at least partially. 0.84

00:25:38.360 By now, it's way past the scheduled start time.

00:25:42.020 So we hustle up.

00:25:43.740 We wish each other good luck.

00:25:44.920 And we start the show.

00:25:46.360 We hang out for a little bit more at the theater.

00:25:48.160 And then we go to a little after party, mostly friends and family, maybe 40, 50 folks.

00:25:54.480 And that's when our excellent editor, Ellen Frankman, comes up to me with a look on her face that I couldn't quite figure out. 0.58

00:26:02.520 In retrospect, she looked really ill.

00:26:05.340 She was shaky.

00:26:06.640 Her face was pale.

00:26:07.900 So I ask her, what's wrong?

00:26:09.840 And she tells me that in addition to the audio failures we had earlier, there was another, even bigger failure.

00:26:18.420 The show had not been recorded, she says.

00:26:23.440 And I didn't understand.

00:26:24.980 I asked her to repeat herself.

00:26:26.480 She said, they didn't record the show.

00:26:29.840 At least one journalist had recorded the entire Ari Emanuel interview, but it's iPhone on the lap quality, not radio quality.

00:26:38.920 So we ditched that recreation idea.

00:26:42.140 Yeah, I'm sure that is the truth and the whole truth and nothing but the whole truth.

00:26:50.600 That sounds a little bit like Baldoni baloney to me.

00:26:53.460 I don't know about the rest of you guys, but just so you know, it's never going to see the light of day.

00:26:58.240 Most powerful guy in the room, but there were just some tech issues.

00:27:01.420 And even though it ran on our radio and we have, we obviously have a transcript of it, it's all very fuzzy and you can't see it.

00:27:08.560 Like I said, I think that they're trying to pivot and their media strategy is changing altogether.

00:27:12.500 They're angry at us for being independent sleuths and mommy sleuths, which reminds me.

00:27:17.860 So I was also telling you guys, the people that started the Me Too movement in general, like we kind of have the same batch of reporters that have been involved in this.

00:27:26.040 Jody Cantor, Megan Tuohy at the New York Times and Dylan Farrow, who writes for The New Yorker or New York Magazine.

00:27:33.820 I should check that. I'm not sure which one.

00:27:36.280 I think it's The New Yorker, but let me check that.

00:27:40.620 Yes, he writes for, I actually have no idea if you guys could look that up.

00:27:46.400 The point being is that I suddenly got contacted by The Cut, which is owned by New York Magazine.

00:27:54.740 Essentially, that's their their parent company.

00:27:56.780 And it's a, you know, it's a big mainstream media publication.

00:27:59.700 And the woman was essentially working on a hit piece on me saying that I'm trying to rebrand with the Justin Baldoni and Taylor Swift situation.

00:28:08.000 And I'm going, have you never listened to my guy?

00:28:10.540 I have been adamantly against the Me Too movement.

00:28:12.820 Oh, is this the actual article that she wrote?

00:28:14.460 Thanks so much, Savannah.

00:28:15.140 I have been adamantly against the Me Too movement since its inception, like since day one.

00:28:20.220 I have not pivoted on this whatsoever.

00:28:22.160 I have covered multiple cases about it.

00:28:24.540 Amber Heard, you name it.

00:28:25.920 I have said this is not good.

00:28:27.780 We as women need to understand that we birth sons. 0.90

00:28:30.280 We marry men.

00:28:31.800 These are going to be our our fathers, our sons, our husbands.

00:28:35.760 And we have to believe in due process.

00:28:37.480 And this was before I had any sons that I had been saying this.

00:28:40.420 And she was so snarky on the phone.

00:28:42.220 She essentially writes this piece and she calls me every name.

00:28:44.400 I'm transphobic.

00:28:45.440 She calls me racist.

00:28:46.380 She calls me anti-Semitic.

00:28:47.600 And she's basically, I guess, condemning you guys for watching my show and being like, you're being fooled.

00:28:53.780 This is the headline that she that she came up with.

00:28:55.580 This this journalist who is so bad, by the way, at a hit piece.

00:28:59.860 So it's just boring.

00:29:00.780 Hit pieces are so boring.

00:29:02.440 And it's entitled by E.J. Dickinson or E.J. Dixon.

00:29:06.400 Don't fall for Candace Owens's rebrand. 1.00

00:29:08.520 And she's unable to present a single fact about how I've rebranded any of my positions whatsoever.

00:29:12.780 She's just like, well, people are watching her now and her show is getting a lot of views.

00:29:17.660 And I'm like, yeah, that's actually not me being rebranded.

00:29:20.280 It's just people seeing you for who you are.

00:29:23.060 People are starting to see the mainstream media for who they are.

00:29:25.040 And so if they're looking at a circumstance and they're recognizing how they have been completely lied to by a publication they trust, like a publication I used to trust, the New York Times, who were willing to essentially destroy a man's career who did nothing wrong.

00:29:40.080 It becomes, I don't know, understandable to them how it might be that you've done it to others.

00:29:44.960 That's it.

00:29:45.520 OK, and they can go back.

00:29:46.900 I haven't removed any of my content.

00:29:48.660 She even tried to pretend that me wiping my Instagram to promote my book was me trying to, like, wipe my past.

00:29:55.080 I did the exact same thing with my first book.

00:29:57.540 I wiped my Instagram because I wanted the focus to be my first book.

00:30:02.300 And it has nothing to do with trying to run from my past.

00:30:04.900 I'm all over the Internet.

00:30:06.040 I'm not running from my past and I haven't pivoted on my perspectives.

00:30:09.440 And so you sense this thing over and over again where the mainstream media is getting frustrated because we are the investigators now and we are the reporters.

00:30:16.580 And I'm not telling you guys what to think.

00:30:18.180 I'm giving you evidence of something that I have seen happening and operating for a very long time, a nasty movement that has taken down people who are not as innocent, like I said, as Justin Baldoni.

00:30:29.440 But finally, I think both sides are waking up to it.

00:30:32.120 And there is a frustration because they can no longer control the narrative.

00:30:35.580 And when you read this article, Candace Owens has gone mainstream.

00:30:39.200 The right wing's commentator's coverage of Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni case has reached millions of viewers.

00:30:44.180 And she sort of even here's a huge tell in articles, guys.

00:30:50.320 Whenever they put in parentheses just one word and the rest of the sentence was actually written by them, they're just taking me out of context.

00:30:57.920 Like they're just fully taking any person out of context.

00:31:00.600 It means actually if I presented the full sentence or the full paragraph of what this person said in its entire context, then I couldn't smear this person.

00:31:07.940 And she does this all throughout the piece, like trying to paint me as an anti-semi, as a transphobe.

00:31:13.140 She uses just one word, which is a word I actually said, but doesn't actually provide the full sentence of what I what I said.

00:31:19.160 And it's just such a tired, tired approach.

00:31:23.020 And it's just amazing to me that these people are so pompous and so arrogant and their views are down and their listeners aren't listening.

00:31:29.540 And they can look at the podcast charts and see that independent media is picking up people like Theo Vaughn, who is neither on the left or the right, but somebody who regularly speaks about his addictions, who's now hosting people on the left and the right.

00:31:42.420 And they can't figure out that people are tired of them.

00:31:46.180 They're tired of being name called, whether you're on the left or you're on the right.

00:31:49.500 You're tired of being called names for thinking critically about various topics.

00:31:55.160 And so I just thought it was like really interesting to just see that the dripping resentment of her trying to paint me.

00:32:00.700 And she's still going with like the literally Hitler racist transphobe who show me that person that exists. 1.00

00:32:06.120 How can I just be all of these things? 0.82

00:32:07.640 How do I hate everybody?

00:32:08.920 Maybe I do hate everybody.

00:32:10.520 Actually, I'm pretty pregnant.

00:32:11.420 I might not be like the wrong thing that she's saying here.

00:32:14.300 Maybe I am just hating everybody at this point. 0.65

00:32:16.600 I hate everybody. 0.99

00:32:17.140 I hate everybody for everything that they are. 0.99

00:32:18.960 OK, whatever.

00:32:20.060 But it was interesting to just see that she kind of went with that.

00:32:22.460 Also, I wanted to shout you guys out because this is hilarious.

00:32:24.700 So I've been saying how much, again, nuance.

00:32:27.000 Even if you think someone did something wrong, you don't need to dismiss a person altogether.

00:32:30.280 Or if you disagree with them, that is the beauty of critical thinking.

00:32:32.780 Take what you want.

00:32:33.800 Leave what you don't.

00:32:34.860 And I don't love Taylor Swift as a person, but she's got some bops. 1.00

00:32:37.340 And I've been telling you guys that I love the London Boys song.

00:32:40.200 And especially because I married a guy from London.

00:32:42.080 Well, somebody pointed out to me, you guys tagged me, that now a lot of people who are

00:32:47.160 watching the show are going and downloading London Boy.

00:32:49.900 So we're contributing to her sales all while examining her character, which shows that we

00:32:53.900 are incredibly nuanced on this show.

00:32:55.580 I absolutely love you guys.

00:32:56.720 And I went to her comment section.

00:32:58.840 And look at it.

00:32:59.460 It's amazing.

00:33:00.260 These are like the top comments.

00:33:01.620 I would never even have heard this song until Candice Owens said she'd bopped to this forever. 0.91

00:33:06.360 A fact.

00:33:07.220 This person never heard the song until Candice talked about it here because of her.

00:33:11.060 Love you, Candice.

00:33:11.860 Candice is absolutely right about this song.

00:33:13.520 It's a bop.

00:33:14.540 Candice absolutely sings this to George.

00:33:16.180 Yes, it is also because I know all of the places that she's referring to in London.

00:33:20.920 The only thing she gets wrong in that video, I mean, in that song, is that she says high tea

00:33:25.280 and actually properly, it's afternoon tea.

00:33:28.920 So I knew that that wasn't the right thing to do, Taylor, but it's okay.

00:33:32.020 It's still a bop.

00:33:32.760 You know, she can say she loves high tea, but high tea is actually what Americans think it is.

00:33:36.240 It's actually afternoon tea.

00:33:37.880 But I married a guy from London, so I had to learn all these little nuances over time.

00:33:41.700 But it's a bop.

00:33:42.460 And I actually am so proud of that, that people are downloading it and loving it because,

00:33:46.360 like I said before, it's good to have nuance.

00:33:48.180 It's good to say, here's what I like about this person.

00:33:50.840 Here's what I don't like about this person.

00:33:51.940 We don't need to, like, rapidly dismiss people altogether or pretend that she doesn't have

00:33:56.840 bops.

00:33:57.520 And we are bopping to London boy forever.

00:34:00.120 All right, guys.

00:34:00.600 I also, speaking of nuance, we should also speak about what's happening with the Tate brothers.

00:34:05.240 This has been insane.

00:34:06.140 And I know people hate to see me coming because I will take the time to read through a lawsuit,

00:34:11.320 even if it's in a foreign language, whether it's happening in France.

00:34:14.300 Like, I will say something and people will think it sounds completely insane at the time.

00:34:18.080 And then I get proven right.

00:34:19.720 Happened with the Becoming Brigitte series a year ago. 0.81

00:34:21.780 Oh, she's crazy. 0.75

00:34:22.900 She's spiraling.

00:34:23.620 Now people are digging to the series and they just want more and they can't believe that

00:34:27.100 there was something there.

00:34:28.040 And I got completely lambasted by the left and the right when I came out and I said I

00:34:35.120 reviewed the Tate brothers case in Romania.

00:34:38.140 Now, they were being held on house arrest.

00:34:41.340 First, they were in a prison cell for months and they had no charges against them.

00:34:45.220 Then they were put on house arrest for about two years.

00:34:50.480 And finally, I just said, I'm going to actually read through this entire case because everyone's 0.98

00:34:54.380 telling me, Candace, you're crazy.

00:34:55.680 Like, they're so guilty. 1.00

00:34:56.640 And, you know, they're guilty of human sex trafficking. 0.82

00:34:58.920 Obviously, even hearing that.

00:35:00.160 And then they were sending me all of these videos of Andrew Tate looking like he was 10

00:35:04.940 years younger, talking about how he has a webcam service and he takes advantage of women.

00:35:10.280 And I thought, OK, let me actually take a look at this because maybe there was something

00:35:13.980 that I'm missing.

00:35:14.500 And when I read the case, I came out and I said, they're not going to be convicted on

00:35:18.740 this.

00:35:19.000 There's nothing in this case.

00:35:20.340 There's nothing to do with Andrew 10 years ago, five years ago, things he said on the

00:35:24.440 Internet, things that he tweeted.

00:35:26.020 The case that I am looking at is going to fall apart.

00:35:28.700 Well, guess what?

00:35:29.260 The case fell apart.

00:35:30.240 OK, and it's kind of crazy because it was this sort of extrajudicial measures that were

00:35:35.480 taken by a government and it should scare you, irrespective of whether you agree.

00:35:40.760 And everybody knows I'm Catholic.

00:35:42.200 My perspectives on pornography are very clear, even if you agree and you have every right

00:35:46.900 to say that you don't like that they ran a webcam business because you shouldn't, because

00:35:49.980 pornography is bad.

00:35:50.860 And I think that it fundamentally weakens men.

00:35:53.180 And by the way, if we're going to speak about getting rid of the part of pornography,

00:35:56.700 the very last what we should be worrying about is Andrew and Tristan Tate.

00:36:00.240 OK, let's talk about Pornhub.

00:36:01.720 Like, really, guys, if we're going to go for it, let's talk about Pornhub.

00:36:05.740 And so I just had the nuance.

00:36:08.160 I read the case and everyone condemned me.

00:36:10.200 How could you defend them?

00:36:11.280 I'm not I'm just reading the facts and they're not going to be convicted.

00:36:14.180 Well, guess what?

00:36:14.700 That happened.

00:36:15.340 OK, the case ended up being thrown out in Romania.

00:36:19.020 They said there's no evidence here.

00:36:20.420 It's exactly what I was saying.

00:36:21.440 There's not enough evidence here to bring charges against them.

00:36:23.780 And the prosecutors essentially were going to have to rebuild an entire case to try to

00:36:27.680 charge them, at which case it looks like the Trump administration intervened because

00:36:32.400 they are American citizens.

00:36:33.560 And they were just brought back to America. 0.78

00:36:37.240 They are now on American soil.

00:36:38.720 They landed this morning.

00:36:40.660 And some for some reason, people are angry about that because they don't like who Andrew

00:36:46.220 and Tristan Tate are.

00:36:48.000 They do not like their online personas.

00:36:49.880 They don't like the way that they speak to women. 1.00

00:36:51.760 And so they're happy to have these men be wrongfully convicted for something that they

00:36:57.280 didn't do.

00:36:57.920 I cannot understand this logic.

00:37:00.300 I cannot understand why you think you need to like someone or agree with their lifestyles

00:37:05.080 in order to say that no person should spend a single second in prison for something that

00:37:10.780 they didn't do.

00:37:11.380 Like that is that is the moral stance to have that due process is right and that if they

00:37:17.740 are an American citizen, of course, they belong back on American soil. 0.96

00:37:21.180 And so Ron DeSantis, who kind of has always danced to his donors emotions, came out and

00:37:28.460 was asked about them landing in Florida, which is, like I said, they're American citizens.

00:37:33.200 And here is what Ron DeSantis said.

00:37:36.080 There's some reporting out there that controversial podcaster accused human trafficker Andrew Tate

00:37:42.340 may be on his way to Florida.

00:37:44.440 Is he welcome here?

00:37:45.840 What could the state do to send him back to Romania or whatever?

00:37:49.440 Well, we have no involvement in that.

00:37:51.380 I read about it through the media.

00:37:53.240 Clearly, the federal government has jurisdiction whether they want to rebuff his entry into the

00:37:58.560 United States.

00:37:59.260 And I have confidence that whether it's Pam Bondi or Christine Noe, they will be looking

00:38:03.320 at that.

00:38:03.680 I do know our Attorney General, James Uthmeyer, is looking at what state hopes and jurisdiction

00:38:10.500 we may have to be able to deal with this.

00:38:14.780 But the reality is, is no, Florida is not a place where you're welcome with that type of

00:38:22.680 conduct in the air.

00:38:23.820 And I don't know how it came to this.

00:38:25.720 We were not involved.

00:38:27.140 We were not notified.

00:38:27.880 So I found out through the media that this was something that was happening.

00:38:31.760 OK, so to be very clear, that is deranged.

00:38:34.720 That is not a conservative perspective.

00:38:36.100 That should not be a liberal perspective perspective.

00:38:38.360 They were not convicted of anything.

00:38:40.200 They were convicted of nothing.

00:38:41.140 And what he is saying is that based on their conduct, even the person asking the question

00:38:45.200 says they were accused.

00:38:46.360 They weren't convicted.

00:38:47.200 That's the point.

00:38:48.220 They being accused of a crime means absolutely nothing.

00:38:51.300 OK, as we have learned, you can be accused of anything today.

00:38:53.920 You can be accused of being a sexual abuser or a sexual harasser if you're Justin Baldoni.

00:39:00.040 The question is, were they convicted?

00:39:01.400 The answer is no.

00:39:02.560 I don't really care about how Ron DeSantis feels about an American citizen coming home.

00:39:06.920 That disqualifies him for ever running for president of the United States ever again.

00:39:10.940 OK, if you cannot set aside your emotions, we do not need you in leadership positions.

00:39:16.900 If you are not able to look at things objectively, whether you are looking at someone, you go,

00:39:20.360 oh, I don't I don't agree with their politics.

00:39:22.520 It's Matt Lauer.

00:39:23.620 People that cheered that on because he was Matt Lauer and he was on the left. 1.00

00:39:26.840 You're a loser. 1.00

00:39:27.920 OK, you're a loser that you can't set aside your politics, that you can't set aside your 1.00

00:39:31.760 emotions and you can't set aside your beliefs. 0.99

00:39:34.780 By the way, to realize that the Constitution does not exist because of how you feel.

00:39:41.520 Right.

00:39:41.940 Could you imagine?

00:39:43.020 We're going to take a look and he absolutely will not be welcomed here as an American citizen 0.50

00:39:48.000 if enough people are outraged by it.

00:39:50.180 No, you're the right thing to say is they have not, to my knowledge, been convicted of

00:39:54.520 any crimes.

00:39:55.160 They are American citizens.

00:39:55.940 If you're not asking me about their character or what I believe about pornography, which we

00:40:00.120 can wax poetic about all day, then, yes, they belong here.

00:40:03.720 That's that's what it means to be a citizen of somewhere.

00:40:06.160 It means that you get to come home if you are not convicted in a foreign country of something.

00:40:10.700 You get to come home whenever you want.

00:40:12.600 That's the right response to that.

00:40:14.100 And I hope that as American citizens, we can all just agree across the line that that's

00:40:19.340 the right thing to say and the right thing that should happen.

00:40:22.720 And if something happens in the future and they get convicted of a crime somewhere else,

00:40:26.380 OK, then what we should want for them is due process.

00:40:29.400 If they get accused again of a crime, what we should always want is due process.

00:40:33.140 And throughout that process, we can form our own opinions and we can look into the case

00:40:36.680 and we can argue about it.

00:40:38.220 And that's the way things should be.

00:40:39.800 That's that's my opinion about the way things should be.

00:40:42.920 Also reminding you guys about one of our sponsors, Beam, because I know that we all need to take

00:40:46.980 more responsibility.

00:40:48.160 One thing that we all need to take more responsibility for is being more self-reliant for our own health,

00:40:52.480 especially when it comes to our sleep health.

00:40:54.500 That's why I'm excited to share something that's made a real difference in my team's life.

00:42:01.520 Also reminding you guys about American financing because the average person say

00:42:05.000 is feeling the financial strain more than ever.

00:42:07.020 Expenses are up.

00:42:07.680 Wages aren't keeping place.

00:42:09.520 And many people are finding it nearly impossible to make ends meet.

00:42:12.260 So with little left over after covering the basics,

00:42:15.100 it's no surprise that many are resorting to credit cards just to get by.

00:42:18.360 Often carrying high balances and interest rates in the 20s or even 30s.

00:42:22.620 So if you're a homeowner and you are stuck in the cycle of mounting debt,

00:42:25.740 you should call my friends at American Financing.

00:42:53.500 Or you can visit AmericanFinancing.net slash Owens.

00:42:57.260 AmericanFinancing.net slash Owens.

00:43:00.420 Okay.

00:43:01.160 Also, Epstein files.

00:43:03.960 I am just tired of the Epstein conversation.

00:43:07.460 We're never getting them, guys.

00:43:09.000 Okay.

00:43:09.400 Like, I just feel like this is getting weird.

00:43:11.720 And it's this excitement.

00:43:14.060 Obviously, people that are implicated in these files are way too powerful and they're never

00:43:18.000 going to let it be released.

00:43:18.640 I'm filing JFK files and the Epstein files as files that the American people are never

00:43:22.720 going to be able to see because the people that are involved are the people that are

00:43:26.120 still in control of America.

00:43:27.540 How about that?

00:43:28.060 That's what I think, actually.

00:43:29.120 And so it makes no sense why we have this sort of media firestorm.

00:43:35.400 The Epstein files are coming.

00:43:36.360 The Epstein files are coming.

00:43:37.840 And Attorney General Pam Bondi went on a media blitz and talks about how these files are

00:43:43.500 coming up.

00:43:43.900 People really excited.

00:43:44.920 Here is her speaking to Jesse Waters on Fox News.

00:43:49.080 And then I'll show you what we got.

00:43:50.240 Take a listen.

00:43:51.040 One of the things a lot of people are wondering, because you said last week that you have the

00:43:55.020 Epstein files on your desk, is when can we see them and what's taking so long to release

00:44:00.060 them?

00:44:00.800 I do.

00:44:01.540 Jesse, there are well over, this will make you sick, 200 victims.

00:44:08.180 200.

00:44:09.340 So we have well over, over 250, actually.

00:44:12.300 So we have to make sure that their identity is protected and their personal information.

00:44:20.100 But other than that, I think tomorrow, you know, the personal information of victims,

00:44:24.180 other than that, I think tomorrow, Jesse, breaking news right now, you're going to see some Epstein

00:44:29.960 information being released by my office.

00:44:33.540 What kind?

00:44:34.140 Are we going to see who was on the flights?

00:44:36.900 Are we going to see any evidence from what he recorded?

00:44:39.840 Because he had all of his homes wired with recording devices.

00:44:43.920 What you're going to see hopefully tomorrow is a lot of flight logs, a lot of names, a lot

00:44:50.920 of information, but it's, it's pretty sick what that man did.

00:44:57.800 Something that I find to be amazing about American history is how it's nearly impossible

00:45:01.580 for us to ever have anything that implicates Israel declassified.

00:45:05.480 You know, like if people know the story leading up to JFK's assassination, the arguments that

00:45:10.420 he was having with Ben Gurion, the prime minister of Israel, the fact that AIPAC, then it was

00:45:15.460 called AZC, was told by JFK that they had to register as foreign agents under Farah, demanded

00:45:23.640 that they demanded that they register as foreign agents and that obviously you're not allowed

00:45:28.640 to lobby for a foreign country according to our laws.

00:45:31.760 And then lucky AIPAC, JFK got shot and we're not allowed to see those files ever again.

00:45:37.280 With Epstein, we know that he's had Mossad connections.

00:45:40.320 That seems to be very apparent.

00:45:42.360 CIA Mossad stuff.

00:45:43.720 Again, CIA Mossad.

00:45:44.780 I don't even know if there's a difference anymore.

00:45:46.620 And suddenly it becomes very complicated to release files, right?

00:45:49.220 There's just something that's just so complicated about the process.

00:45:51.560 And so we learned that phase one, phase one of the files are being, and we've got to black

00:45:57.060 out names, guys, because, you know, it takes very long time to black out victims'

00:46:00.980 names.

00:46:01.820 There's 250 names.

00:46:03.060 250 names.

00:46:04.940 You heard her.

00:46:06.500 Send it to me, Pam.

00:46:07.700 I will get it done in one hour.

00:46:09.080 Not even.

00:46:09.920 Actually, what am I even saying?

00:46:11.800 The apps today, done, blacked out.

00:46:15.580 I can color it.

00:46:16.500 I can do this on Snapchat, Instagram.

00:46:19.080 What do you want?

00:46:20.240 What do you want?

00:46:20.660 I'm just like so tired of the political back forth and pretending, oh, we're definitely

00:46:26.920 going to be transparent as soon as you know that there's any indication that Israel could

00:46:32.060 be involved.

00:46:32.820 We're not going to be transparent, my friends.

00:46:35.040 OK, so phase one was a nothing burger.

00:46:38.540 And I like a lot of the people that were at the White House and given, you know, independent

00:46:42.860 journalists, they kind of made this big hoo-ha.

00:46:44.520 We're giving it to independent journalists.

00:46:45.840 There's libs of TikTok.

00:46:47.760 There's Liz Wheeler.

00:46:49.340 There is D.C. Drano.

00:46:51.520 And to the right, by the way, Mike Cernovich, friend of mine who has actually one of the

00:46:56.220 people who we should be thanking for the fact that Epstein never got discovered in the first

00:46:59.960 place.

00:47:00.240 He's a lawyer and he filed a lawsuit because he saw something funny with the Epstein case.

00:47:04.540 And I've spoken to him about this.

00:47:05.760 So for years, he's not a fraudulent person by any stretch of the imagination.

00:47:10.300 And he even said there's nothing here like there.

00:47:13.060 He's saying he's blaming it on the SDNY, that they gave Pam Bondi only a little bit and

00:47:20.380 then she gave it to these independent journalists.

00:47:22.860 Guys, can somebody give it to Brian Friedman?

00:47:25.820 Can we just get a website like here's the files, unleash the files for the whole public

00:47:32.840 to read?

00:47:33.600 I don't need meetings with independent journalists.

00:47:36.020 We are the media now.

00:47:37.200 All of us are the media now.

00:47:38.940 We just need a website that's operative.

00:47:41.440 And like I said, we can put squigglies on victims' names. 0.74

00:47:46.180 Let's just not do this song dance anymore. 0.99

00:47:48.560 Can everybody just stop being fake and gay? 1.00

00:47:51.280 Can we just stop? 0.99

00:47:52.040 Can we all agree everywhere like we're done with it?

00:47:55.100 And I'd rather someone just sit down and be like, look, unfortunately, our nation is occupied

00:48:00.920 and we did some crazy things like, you know, CIA maybe shot a sitting president.

00:48:05.780 So we're not going to open that can of worms.

00:48:09.720 We're just business as usual.

00:48:10.800 If you guys don't mind, I'd be like, you know what?

00:48:12.860 I kind of appreciate that honesty.

00:48:14.420 It feels refreshing coming from the state.

00:48:16.640 I might be OK with it.

00:48:17.440 I could probably get down with that.

00:48:18.700 I'd be like, yeah, it feels kind of good.

00:48:20.420 I don't know.

00:48:20.620 I feel good that you're just telling me.

00:48:22.300 If you're just like, look, we're so powerful.

00:48:23.880 There's nothing you can really do about it.

00:48:25.180 We're the CIA.

00:48:26.580 We're going to keep doing what we want.

00:48:28.140 I'd be like, OK, it feels better.

00:48:30.200 It feels a little bit better than like gaslighting the public constantly.

00:48:33.360 Right.

00:48:33.560 I feel like that would be like better, more preferred.

00:48:36.540 Am I crazy?

00:48:37.960 I don't know.

00:48:38.420 Is that just like weird pregnancy hormones that I would actually rather them just say

00:48:41.520 like we are unbelievably corrupt and everybody's in the club and you're not?

00:48:45.340 I'd like that.

00:48:46.080 I'd say thank you.

00:48:48.400 I'd send them a gift at Christmas.

00:48:49.940 I don't know.

00:48:50.660 That's how I feel.

00:48:51.260 I'd send them a Thanksgiving card or something.

00:48:53.540 Anyways, we're not getting it.

00:48:54.760 So I just want you guys to know that.

00:48:55.940 You can ignore everything.

00:48:57.320 The song, the dance, the pictures, the photos, the smiles, documents, the people.

00:49:01.780 We're not getting it.

00:49:02.740 This is this is a show and and little tell there's never going to be a tell because very

00:49:07.820 powerful people are implicated.

00:49:10.500 And that's the end of that.

00:49:13.340 Anyways, you guys, I should see what you are saying to me and read some of your comments

00:49:18.680 because we are going over time as we always do.

00:49:21.620 Why do I always have so much to say?

00:49:23.900 What is wrong with me?

00:49:25.500 Ben Autzen writes, I'm related to Weinstein, but do you remember Randy Quaid being called

00:49:29.500 a lunatic for saying there were star killers murdering celebrities?

00:49:34.120 Also, why is there no peep about Ghislaine Maxwell?

00:49:36.320 Where did she go?

00:49:37.360 Is that the dog that's not barking?

00:49:39.080 Yeah, that's a very good question.

00:49:40.160 And I don't I actually didn't follow the Randy Quaid thing.

00:49:42.680 I do know that they said he was crazy, but I didn't follow why they were saying he was

00:49:45.780 crazy or what he said.

00:49:47.060 But generally speaking, as a rule of thumb, the crazy people are the ones that are telling

00:49:50.860 the truth and the totally sane people are the ones you have to watch out for.

00:49:55.500 Zyra Meno writes today.

00:49:56.900 I almost had a Suge Knight breakdown at our project group's dead weight.

00:50:00.960 The only thing that stopped it was someone saying, calm down, Suge.

00:50:04.480 I started laughing and I made a new friend.

00:50:06.560 It happens to the best of us.

00:50:08.260 Hugo writes, are you going to do a series about World War Two and the reality of what

00:50:11.420 really happened?

00:50:12.420 I just watched a documentary called Europa, the last battle, but I don't know if I can

00:50:15.860 trust the contents of that documentary, but I have trust in you.

00:50:18.760 Well, I haven't seen that documentary, but I know that it is the most sensitive topic

00:50:22.280 in the whole wide world is World War Two.

00:50:23.900 So God forbid you speak to anyone who tells you any fact that was not approved in your

00:50:28.360 third grade government class, your seventh grade class when you learned about everything,

00:50:34.120 they have a meltdown.

00:50:35.520 And there's no further proof of that than Daryl Cooper joining Tucker Carlson, who's like

00:50:41.320 a historian.

00:50:42.800 He's like a nice guy.

00:50:43.840 And he starts giving some facts that you maybe wouldn't learn in your high school class.

00:50:47.900 And there was a mainstream media meltdown.

00:50:50.980 And the reason for that is because the mainstream media has always been an arm of the CIA, at

00:50:54.540 least since JFK was shot.

00:50:57.200 Maria writes, Leonid Radvinsky lives in Florida.

00:50:59.840 He is the owner of OnlyFans.

00:51:01.520 Tate brothers, not very moral, but they are citizens.

00:51:03.860 This is why DeSantis will never be president.

00:51:05.820 Wow.

00:51:06.180 I did not know that.

00:51:06.980 The owner of OnlyFans.

00:51:08.960 Welcome in Florida.

00:51:10.140 That's fine.

00:51:10.700 You know why he's welcome in Florida?

00:51:12.640 Because he hasn't been convicted of anything and he's an American citizen. 0.84

00:51:15.400 So despite the fact that I think OnlyFans is disgusting, absolutely disgusting, I wouldn't

00:51:21.300 of course say that the person who created it belongs in America because my issues with

00:51:25.900 pornography doesn't mean that I just get to randomly convict people and tell them that

00:51:30.100 they get kicked out of the country.

00:51:31.280 But, you know, who am I?

00:51:32.260 I'm just someone who believes that we should be following the Constitution.

00:51:36.040 John writes, pre-ordered seven copies this morning.

00:51:38.300 Got to pass them out to the potentials.

00:51:39.780 I got women to vet Candace. 1.00

00:51:41.160 Aw, thank you for ordering seven copies of Make Him a Sandwich.

00:51:44.760 Candace, can't step into the next year without my wife secured. 1.00

00:51:47.980 Your book might just be the key.

00:51:49.480 Yes, fellas, give it to a girl that you are dating. 1.00

00:51:52.940 Want to know that she's wife material. 1.00

00:51:54.420 You can order her pre-order.

00:51:55.940 Make Him a Sandwich available at CandaceOwens.com.

00:51:59.360 Gina writes, God bless you and your family, Candace.

00:52:01.940 May Michael the Archangel protect you under his wings.

00:52:05.580 Thank you so much for saying that.

00:52:07.500 And I do believe it is the prayers that have been keeping me safe.

00:52:10.400 I don't know why the mainstream media still hates me so much.

00:52:13.480 I just don't get it. 0.99

00:52:14.680 I promise I'm not this violent, crazy, racist, sexist, anti-Semitic, self-loathing woman. 0.99

00:52:22.580 You know, I don't think I am. 0.99

00:52:24.500 We can check when I get to 39 weeks pregnant.

00:52:26.560 We're in the single digits now.

00:52:27.740 Like I said, maybe I am a little angry at people.

00:52:31.640 But I think you guys are just misrepresenting me and misrepresenting what I believe in.

00:52:35.640 And I do have anger at both sides.

00:52:37.940 I call everybody out all the time.

00:52:39.900 I've done this forever.

00:52:40.800 Go back.

00:52:41.340 Like I said, my content is not being stripped from the internet.

00:52:45.260 By the way, guys, look at this.

00:52:47.520 Where is our little timer ticker thing for almost at 4 million subscribers on YouTube?

00:52:52.680 Bring up my ticker, guys.

00:52:54.600 I want them to see, look at, oh, 5,000 more subscribers.

00:52:59.300 Where are you, 5,000 more subscribers?

00:53:01.200 Are you watching right now?

00:53:02.140 Could you hit the subscribe button?

00:53:03.080 Could you help us out?

00:53:04.100 Could we get to 4 million subs so that we can party?

00:53:06.960 And by party, I mean like go to bed early or something, because that to me would be the

00:53:11.260 best thing.

00:53:11.780 That would be so exciting if I could go to bed at like 8.30 one night.

00:53:15.040 Yes, I love that.

00:53:16.280 Please hit the subscribe button if you are watching right now.

00:53:19.260 Other than that, guys, I think that we have covered everything.

00:53:21.360 And I have to just see what everyone else is in a meltdown about.

00:53:24.580 There are so many things that happened today.

00:53:25.860 It seemed ridiculous, but can't thank you guys enough for sticking around and not believing

00:53:29.320 the mainstream media smears and libels about me.

00:53:32.120 I will see you guys tomorrow.
