weighing declaring a public health emergency to protect abortion access in the potential aftermath
00:00:51.680
of a scotus decision that could overturn roe v wade we're going to break that all down next
00:00:56.200

00:01:02.280
home third elon musk directly addressing twitter employees we've got all the info on that and then
00:01:07.080
finally food shortage worries are mounting as pennsylvania farms and other farms are being
00:01:12.400
crushed by record diesel prices all this more ahead human events daily
00:01:16.160
we need the biden administration to step up to the plate and do everything it possibly can to protect
00:01:34.400
the right to abortion and with the supreme court set to rule imminently unleashing a tsunami of trigger
00:01:41.680
laws that will create chaos and deny millions of patients the ability to get the care they need
00:01:48.400
we need a plan from this administration as soon as humanly possible last month when the draft supreme
00:01:55.840
court decision was leaked i pushed secretary becerra on the administration's plan i'll be frank i was not
00:02:03.920
satisfied with the answer that's why last week senator warren and i led our colleagues
00:02:09.200
in calling on president biden to immediately issue an executive order instructing every federal agency
00:02:17.920
to develop a plan to protect the right to abortion we're not going to sit around quietly waiting for him
00:02:25.040
to act fair warning mr president we are going to be loud okay so this first story today you need to
00:02:32.400
understand this because it gets into a lot of the procedure regarding what would happen if the supreme
00:02:38.960
court does eventually overturn roe v wade we're hearing now that the supreme court is looking at two
00:02:46.240
opinion days next week so tuesday and thursday of next week could be when this decision comes down but i
00:02:52.480
want to caution everyone because i'm very concerned that potentially and no one's talking about this
00:02:58.480
potentially the leak of that document the leak of that decision that initial ruling into overturning roe
00:03:06.400
v wade could that have been done as an operation to potentially sway the justices into not fully
00:03:13.520
overturning roe v wade i know i know but i'm hearing some doubts within dc right now as to whether or not
00:03:20.640
roe v wade will be overturned in full and could we reach or could it be that the justices are reaching
00:03:26.720
some kind of compromise where they don't actually overturn the entire thing but they allow the
00:03:32.080
missouri law to stand while keeping roe in place but the biden administration and many within uh the
00:03:40.320
democrat party and other liberals out there in the country are talking about what could potentially be
00:03:44.880
the ramifications of this now we talked at length about a lot of those quote-unquote trigger laws or
00:03:51.200
states with trigger laws as opposed to those states which would become sanctuary states for abortion now one
00:03:58.960
thing that some of the trigger law states are looking at doing as is talking about criminalizing
00:04:05.200
or making laws against traveling out of state for people to obtain abortions for pregnant women to
00:04:11.840
obtain abortions and the biden administration some supporters according to the new york times
00:04:16.880
it says to provide doctors with legal cover some supporters are urging the biden administration to take
00:04:23.120
several steps that would reimpose quote a degree of federal control over abortion law that's an
00:04:31.200
interesting question because of course if roe v wade is overturned there should be no federal
00:04:35.440
control over abortion laws go completely to the states but how could they potentially do this apparently
00:04:42.000
the the biden administration is considering going to the department of health and human services
00:04:47.920
and declaring a national public health emergency and using those emergency powers to invoke a law passed in
00:04:56.560
2005 that shields doctors from legal liability for treating patients in a state where they are not licensed
00:05:06.560
now according to postmillennial many of these moves could be met with court challenges like in the case of an
00:05:11.680
executive order passed by biden last year extending the pandemic related ban on evicting evicting renters
00:05:18.080
of course these would all be executive orders and we've seen and libby emmons over at the postmillennial has been
00:05:23.200
doing a great job really criticizing how the biden administration seems to be ruling far more through executive order
00:05:30.800
than they are through actual legislation and actual bills the biden administration has also reportedly asked this
00:05:38.240
justice department's office of legal counsel as to whether or not the hyde amendment would bar the
00:05:43.840
usage of these funds for other abortion related expenses like travel keep in mind that the hyde amendment
00:05:51.440
prevents the usage of federal taxpayer funds for abortion so then that question becomes what if that
00:05:57.600
that those fat funding right is used for travel expenses for people who are trying to travel outside of
00:06:05.360
states where abortion becomes illegal into states where abortion becomes legal again all of this has to do
00:06:13.280
with these new states right this new situation or really the old situation that we're going to
00:06:18.480
as to what we had 48 years ago where in some states abortion could be legal and other states abortion
00:06:25.040
could be outright banned this is going to create a huge disparity in the system going into the midterm
00:06:32.880
elections of 2020 so people need to understand that that you're going to you've already got by the way
00:06:38.640
many states like for example the state of texas of course is already cracked down a lot on abortion
00:06:44.320
we've got other states that have heartbeat bills other things like this in place other protections in place
00:06:48.960
but if roe v wade is overturned if the justices the conservative justices stand strong
00:06:55.680
right don't put your faith in uh secular human saviors right so i'm i'm not going to hold my
00:07:02.720
breath i'm going to say that publicly right now putting my chips in i'm not holding my breath
00:07:07.920
that roe v wade will be overturned in full but if it is if it is the biden administration is looking to
00:07:14.320
take steps to enact a federal emergency a health emergency in order to continue to allow abortion to
00:07:23.680

00:08:44.080
you know when you say it's wrong there's been a debate over whether it's illegal now you hear from
00:08:51.280
the administration and datzaki and some others that these are peaceful protests they get kind of hairy
00:08:56.560
looking at it myself governor but what do you make of that that nothing illegal is going on
00:09:03.280
well the statute is incredibly clear it basically says if you are parading or picketing in order to try to
00:09:10.800
influence a judge then it's punishable with up to a year in prison that sounds illegal to me and i i
00:09:17.840
just ask the attorney general to enforce the law that's on the books if people want to demonstrate
00:09:23.520
someplace off away from their home that's their prerogative but again this is not a final ruling
00:09:30.080
it's a draft ruling right and clearly these these demonstrations are being pulled together to try to
00:09:36.000
influence the final outcome and that is prohibited based on federal statute got it well and there you
00:09:42.160
hear governor glenn youngkin stepping up and saying that he is going to do his job and i gotta say that
00:09:49.280
i have to support that because prior to this i remember i was critical i was quite critical of
00:09:55.280
governor youngkin when he allowed he allowed those protesters to target the homes of supreme court justices
00:10:04.160
who live in virginia such as sam alito and amy coney barrett that is against the law not just
00:10:09.680
federally but also in the state of virginia look if you are going to run as a conservative then you
00:10:16.480
better govern as a conservative if you are going to stand up and say i will do these things we're going
00:10:23.200
to hold you accountable so what do we have here governor youngkin has just introduced a budget
00:10:29.840
amendment we have the story out of daily wire that would make it a felony to protest out of a judge
00:10:34.800
or justice's home with the intent of influencing or intimidating that justice by the way intimidating
00:10:40.240
a judge within their home has been against the prior to a decision right prior to a decision has been
00:10:47.040
against the law in the united states for a long long time this is federal law but of course we've now
00:10:54.160
heard and we're hearing reports that the federal government is allowing these protesters to
00:11:00.640
intimidate judges that they will not be enforcing the law that's amazing right it's amazing so you got
00:11:07.920
the trial of steve bannon coming up in one month's time one month from today will be the start of the
00:11:13.280
trial of steve bannon where no one has been convicted of contempt of congress since 1974 i had to look this
00:11:23.840
up i actually looked this up nearly 50 years nearly 50 years since we've seen anybody convicted of this
00:11:32.960
do you understand what point in the movie we're in i know i say that every day
00:11:37.280
they're allowing you to break the law in front of a justice's home to intimidate the justice to
00:11:44.160
intimidate their children even after just a few weeks after nicholas roski was arrested he has now been
00:11:52.640
charged with attempted assassination of supreme court justice brett kavanaugh in his home by the
00:12:01.280
way notice that name nicholas roski isn't in a i put up a a poll on twitter yesterday and i said
00:12:07.520
how many people know the name without searching nicholas roski how many people know this name how
00:12:12.960
many people can recognize it something like 80 said they had no idea who i was talking about without
00:12:18.320
looking it up kind of funny how the media hasn't been plastering his name everywhere hasn't been
00:12:25.440
looking up his name and even the conservative media right even the conservative media has not been doing
00:12:30.160
a good job nicholas roski his name is nicholas roski he attempted to murder a supreme court justice you
00:12:38.560
flew to his home from california purchased a weapon he had a backpack full of zip ties right he's outside of
00:12:45.840
his home calls his sister who convinces him to to back down basically and to call 911 all right
00:12:54.720
so what's what is youngkin up to now youngkin is proposing amendment 35 on felonious picking
00:13:00.720
picketing picketing picketing say that five times fast felonious picketing and demonstrating by the
00:13:06.560
way felonious picketing does that sound like a harry potter character felonious picketing sorry sorry
00:13:12.000
digression and demonstrations creating a classic felony for picketing or demonstrating in or near
00:13:18.720
a court or residence with the intent of interfering with obstructing or impeding the administration of
00:13:23.840
justice or with the intent of influencing or intimidating in the discharge of his or her duty
00:13:29.200
any judge juror witness court officer or court employee or any immediate family member or such individuals
00:13:37.440
america used to be a serious country america used to be a country where this type of thing would not
00:13:44.160
be taken lightly you cannot intimidate judges there was just a judge who was murdered in wisconsin by
00:13:50.640
someone he had sent to jail but of course the state of virginia we have to make extra laws to make extra
00:13:57.360
certain that these types of things don't take place because we've lost something in our society
00:14:03.920
well elon musk has made his uh town hall or he's done his twitter town hall directly with twitter
00:14:14.240
employees and we thanks to the power and the gracious actions of project veritas the journalism
00:14:21.200
i might add of project veritas not only have a copy of the full speech the full it was basically a zoom
00:14:28.560
session uh between elon musk a conversation between himself and some of the heads of twitter but also
00:14:35.200
the twitter reactions from employees at twitter in the slack channel and so i put out before the other
00:14:42.560
day that i said i think libs of tick tock is the first person to ever leak internal communications
00:14:48.160
from twitter from these messages in their slack channel now it seems that project veritas has done
00:14:53.600
the same and benny johnson the great benny johnson had this up on his twitter account so
00:14:58.720
what do we see so elon musk in this video pretty much said the same thing that he said everywhere
00:15:05.040
else right he's looks at twitter as two things number one the international town square the public
00:15:12.000
town square this idea actually made a good point he said it's a town it's a town square a public
00:15:17.200
square but it's much bigger of course because there are far more people in twitter that could ever
00:15:21.680
fit in a town square but he also made another point he said well there's a couple million people
00:15:26.240
on twitter but there are billions of people in the world and so from the perspective of a business right
00:15:33.040
and because of course he's looking to run this as a business right that's what he is at the end of
00:15:37.200
the day he's an entrepreneur businessman he said i want to make a product that everyone in the world
00:15:43.280
is going to want to have i want to turn twitter into a global brand something where it follows the law
00:15:50.640
he said i wanted to follow the law of every country it operates in so if they if a country
00:15:54.720
passes a law we want to follow that law we're not going to flout that law but we're not going to go
00:16:00.960
beyond the laws in terms of enforcing what people think of as free speech and he used a line he said
00:16:08.720
there's freedom of speech and i've heard this before there's freedom of speech and there's freedom of
00:16:12.800
reach what does that mean well essentially it means that he was saying that even if one person goes up and
00:16:19.040
says something that other people consider crazy that doesn't mean that it's going to be populated
00:16:23.600
throughout all of twitter it's not going to be promoted the algorithm is not going to promote it
00:16:28.000
but that it should that if it's lawful speech if it is speech that is not breaking the law if it's speech
00:16:33.920
that does not run afoul of the laws of the country in which twitter is operating then twitter should have
00:16:39.680
no business in messing with that the twitter should just let that stand now of course people in the comments
00:16:47.360
on twitter and keep in mind this is internal twitter employees apparently they're called
00:16:51.760
tweets um tweets was this really stupid name that uh people at twitter were trying to push for the
00:16:59.600
other twitter followers and twitter users early on in the in the in the the time before the before time
00:17:06.640
uh really before you know i've been on twitter way too long over 10 years now uh past the 10 year mark
00:17:11.200
a couple of weeks ago and that you know tweets was this idea that hey you know share this with
00:17:18.160
your tweets it was something they would push in their marketing and their advertising never really
00:17:21.440
caught on but apparently of course for the squares that actually work at twitter that's what they use
00:17:26.240
to refer themselves now okay so the tweets were saying that they were so upset with elon musk they said
00:17:33.600
how is this guy brilliant i thought he was smart you saw other people saying and of course elon was
00:17:38.400
talking about well i want people to be exceptional because they did ask him about layoffs they said
00:17:43.920
what could possibly happen with layoffs and they've talked about layoffs at uh spacex and at tesla and
00:17:50.320
he said look i want to do what's best for the country the company and if what's best for the company
00:17:56.160
means that there are people who are currently here that shouldn't be here anymore if they're standing in
00:18:01.200
the it you know in the way if they're a challenge to the company doing better then guess what don't
00:18:07.360
need them get rid of them and i i saw this one person it was really my favorite comment from
00:18:11.920
anybody on there and i'm not going to put out his name even though you can go look and his name is
00:18:16.400
there what did he say i'm going to read it verbatim he said uh i'm just pulling this up here give me
00:18:20.960
one second he said so i now need to worry about becoming unemployed depending on whether i'm considered
00:18:28.800
exceptional that's my takeaway from this it's like guess what bro welcome to the real world welcome to your
00:18:36.880
first job in the united states of america because guess what buddy that's how it works if you're
00:18:44.160
running the buffet it's sizzler if you're working at a bakery if you're working at a deli wherever
00:18:49.120
you're working that's how it goes yes you will be unemployed if you do not work hard that's how
00:18:55.440
it's supposed to work and i talked before about america losing something this is a huge part of that
00:19:01.280
no participation trophies no oh i got hired so that means i'm good no none of that if you are not
00:19:08.160
performing if you are not being productive you're gone you're cut here in the world real world we
00:19:15.040
expect results so i gotta say when it comes to that totally support elon musk totally support his stance
00:19:21.920
on that from a business perspective the other thing that i will say is look elon you have got to move that
00:19:29.520
company out of san francisco you've got to move them somewhere like i don't know maybe texas why
00:19:35.680
don't you move it right down to the rio grande valley where spacex is you could run it right and
00:19:40.080
how many people by the way didn't know that until this week that spacex and that's apparently where
00:19:44.800
elon musk is registered to vote because he said that he did vote in the election that he voted for
00:19:50.000
myra flores down there uh he came out and admitted that he voted for her which of course means that
00:19:55.040
and where is that that's brownsville texas so brownsville texas it's right sort of so it's on
00:19:59.680
the u.s border um right on the rio grande and then we're also right next to the gulf of mexico which
00:20:06.160
makes sense so you know if you've got any mishaps uh with his rocket launches his tests you know it'll
00:20:11.600
it'll fall in the water it won't fall into a populated area so you know the same kind of idea
00:20:16.160
as cape canaveral which unfortunately has seen accidents as well and and spacex uses utilizes cape
00:20:20.480
canaveral as well the kennedy space center but but go ahead and put it right there put it down
00:20:27.040
in the heart of texas make this a place where people want to work not feel like they are entitled to work
00:20:37.280
with regard to food shortage yes we did we let's talk about food shortages and uh and it's going to be
00:20:44.000
real the price of these sanctions is not just imposed upon russia it's imposed upon an awful
00:20:51.200
lot of countries as well including european countries in our country as well and finally
00:20:56.400
today we are teetering on the edge is out of zero hedge food shortage worries mount as pennsylvania
00:21:03.040
farms are being crushed by record diesel prices pennsylvania farmers are being crushed by the record
00:21:08.720
amount of diesel so much so that questions about a food crisis are starting to loom and how long have
00:21:14.400
we been talking about this here on human events daily one farmer in lehigh county is quoted as
00:21:20.160
saying i've got a tractor hooked up to my corn planter out here no diesel fuel and i can't afford
00:21:26.640
to get any that farmer was airing his gripes to kyle coates moyer a legislative affairs specialist
00:21:33.440
for the pennsylvania farm bureau coates moyer then turned around and testified to state lawmakers
00:21:38.160
we have now reached that point where it's very close to being a sinking ship we are teetering on
00:21:44.000
the edge right now the situation looks as though it will continue to push food prices higher after the
00:21:49.680
government reported that food prices in may were 10.1 percent higher than last year coates moyer lamented
00:21:56.000
the possibility of a food shortage one if they can't afford to put it in the ground or two if they can't
00:22:01.120
afford to take it out the pennsylvania average for diesel is now six dollars and 19 cents per gallon
00:22:08.000
up 75 percent 75 percent from a year ago the report notes this is a huge huge expense for farmers
00:22:18.480
the farm bureau legislator told state legislators the official told state legislators one farmer who
00:22:24.640
works on about 3 500 acres burns through about 2 000 gallons of diesel per month if the farmers cannot
00:22:31.760
get crops out of the ground then there is not food on the shelves you know i was saying this the other
00:22:36.880
day on twitter there's so many people in these cities it's all city people and they want to they
