00:01:50.320 casablanca so california said they were totally going to build a high-speed rail and still has
00:01:56.300 there was some french or japanese company that came in and was going to build and help them
00:01:59.800 and they wait around for a few years while california tries to get its acts together and finally they say
00:02:04.080 this state is never fixing itself we're going somewhere that's way more functional so they went
00:02:08.920 to morocco and morocco's built this big high-speed rail line in the time span where california has still
00:02:13.840 built no rail whatsoever yeah it's we actually asked about that when we were there and apparently
00:02:19.180 it's it's not it doesn't go to like every city but it's between like the two main cities tyler's here
00:02:24.400 tyler you were the star of our show last week you just wait you're talking tyler let us see your
00:02:30.940 facial tats where are your facial tats uh i'm getting the teardrop
00:02:34.220 based 11 teardrops for the 11 no no blake we can't anything that can say we can't go
00:02:42.880 i'm gonna i'm gonna like be a totalitarian stop i i i'm gonna say this is we're uh we're we're ready
00:02:51.580 to uh take on whatever we need to take on here which is uh you know that this is we're in crazy
00:02:58.120 times yes we are we we don't want to cause any more problems for tyler because we're dealing with
00:03:02.680 bad people okay let's get into the first topic blake what is it they're banning the bible charlie
00:03:07.060 congress just went and they voted on the law that says if you own a bible if you read a bible if you
00:03:12.500 look at a bible they are going to cut your head off that's that's what the law says okay i am
00:03:18.180 exaggerating a bit i'm exaggerating a very eventful day oh i believe it i believe it and so for those who
00:03:24.980 haven't for those who haven't been following the news too much so big big picture there's a lot of
00:03:29.660 campus protests against israel a lot of them have had a very anti-semitic flavoring to them to say
00:03:35.940 the least there's a lot of extremely angry liberals doing what extremely angry liberals do which is be
00:03:40.420 disgusting and understandably we think those people are gross we're all like cheering on the cops when
00:03:46.220 they decide to you know knock down their lame tent cities or arrest them for taking over buildings but
00:03:51.840 the right is doing that thing where they they get a good idea and then they they goof up their
00:03:58.780 response to it and so what congress is doing uh the u.s house is they decided to pass a bill
00:04:06.040 attacking anti-semitism and as is often the case with congress they didn't read it it's like the terms
00:04:12.860 and conditions on your iphone they just don't you know you just go to the bottom and click i agree
00:04:17.080 it's hr 690 hr 6090 6090 and what hr 6090 does is it passes a formal definition for anti-semitism
00:04:28.020 and it instructs the department of education to use this definition for the purposes of enforcing
00:04:33.800 civil rights law so we have civil rights law that say you can't discriminate on the basis of race
00:04:38.900 or sex or skin color or religion and other factors uh if you are a school that is getting federal money
00:04:46.980 and so what they say is obviously that would apply like anti-jewish discrimination and so what this
00:04:53.320 law is essentially saying is this is the official definition of anti-jewish discrimination that the
00:04:58.140 department of education should use and the definition that they are using is really really broad it is
00:05:05.800 yes a definition created by a group called the international holocaust remembrance alliance and it's
00:05:12.060 called the working definition of anti-semitism and this working definition of anti-semitism
00:05:18.480 it includes some things we would all agree both are anti-semitic and should not be allowed like you
00:05:24.480 can't like it includes assisting in violence against jewish people that's already illegal of course that's
00:05:29.480 already illegal so that's part of it it's state local and federal crimes that so it's one of these
00:05:33.420 things where why do you need to pass it except to expand it but other definitions that are included
00:05:38.460 here as examples and this law what it does is it says it includes the definition and the examples
00:05:44.060 that this group has given that you should look towards and so for example one of them is claiming
00:05:52.080 that the existence of a state of israel is a racist endeavor which some people say because it's a country
00:05:57.960 that defines itself as jewish it gives citizenship to jewish people automatically but not other groups
00:06:03.520 of people so it's a group that it's a state that defines itself by a particular nationality so
00:06:08.660 they'll say that's racist or they'll say drawing comparisons between contemporary israeli policy and
00:06:14.820 that of the nazis as michael knowles explained on our show no one knows how to compare any bad thing
00:06:20.060 or the thing they say is bad to anything except the nazis it is the it's the godwin's law everything
00:06:24.840 gets to uh compared to the nazis but now they're saying that is anti-semitic and so what that means is
00:06:31.640 if a school like if a professor at a school does this or if a group at a school does this and doesn't
00:06:37.260 get punished or if employees of a school are doing this it would apparently violate civil rights law
00:06:43.360 and then the government can come in and sue you or they have to have lawsuits go your way go towards
00:06:49.880 someone if they sue over this and it just it adds to the arsenal of things the federal government can do
00:06:55.080 to mess with you so let yeah let's break let's first let's play the uh laws author a bill's author
00:07:01.520 which actually it's it has more there's a lot of updates around this and we covered it earlier today
00:07:06.560 there's a lot of updates here this is mike lawlor moderate from new york republican it is his bill
00:07:12.080 play cut 102 hey everyone it's congressman mike lawlor i just want to say how proud i am that my bill
00:07:18.800 the anti-semitism awareness act just passed the house of representatives 320 votes to 91 this bill
00:07:27.500 has broad bipartisan support and will begin the process of cracking down on the anti-semitism that
00:07:34.020 we've seen run rampant on college campuses all across america this is a big day and a big win
00:07:40.940 now we got to get it through the senate and signed into law i look forward to working to get this across
00:07:47.020 the finish line there's so much wrong with this first of all if you really want to get to the
00:07:50.200 core of anti-semitism defund the colleges that's a separate issue secondly why is congress in the
00:07:55.140 business of policing speech but i want to just get to two elements here the first of which is that we
00:08:00.300 were i started to call out a lot of lawmakers on this and their response was like oh the senate's
00:08:06.640 not going to pass it was a show vote we now have intel from two u.s senators chuck schumer is
00:08:12.420 accelerating this to the senate floor yes that he is now top priority for the senate
00:08:16.960 so all the republicans that voted for it they did not read this i could tell you after a whole day
00:08:22.180 of talking to several lawmakers they did not read this third element eli crane has come out publicly
00:08:28.280 and privately right he met with mike johnson right before this passed he was like bro like i know we're
00:08:34.620 not on great terms there's a huge problem in this bill can we get it fixed like he went with three
00:08:38.960 other congressmen that's right and he was like yo like just i totally understand like a show vote we
00:08:44.120 understand in congress there are show votes it's just the way it is show vote like resolutions are
00:08:48.860 for that more than laws and speaker johnson took it and was like yep good we'll fix it and he said
00:08:56.560 we'll fix it and he put it exactly as it's worded so speaker johnson literally didn't listen to anything
00:09:02.180 so what is the main contention here so it's all the stuff we had you know listed about that's already
00:09:08.400 bad because it's like okay you can't criticize the israeli government you know even if that's a
00:09:13.180 bad criticism we don't need a ban on criticizing a foreign country but one of the things that's in it
00:09:18.900 is it says uh it mentions images associated with classic anti-semitism e.g for example claims of jews
00:09:28.340 killing jesus so i want to get into this so i talked to um a very smart man who likes this bill and he's a
00:09:35.560 good friend i'm not gonna say who it is but he's very well studied phd all that stuff and he didn't
00:09:39.620 like my tweet where i asked the question and we actually came to a great agreement on the phone
00:09:43.600 call where he said charlie read the text over and over again so let's read the text again using the
00:09:49.000 symbols and images associated with classic anti-semitism for example claims of jews killing
00:09:52.920 jesus or blood libel to characterize israel or israelis so he says this is essentially group
00:09:59.280 guilting all current israeli citizens for the death of jesus i said that's not what it says though
00:10:04.300 and what i was able i think to come to some common ground with is i said can you point to a time
00:10:10.180 where the federal government has a statute where they do not pervert or contort what is on the laws
00:10:15.640 of the books to come after the faithful and i think the best example of this in modern times is
00:10:19.900 douglas mackie look how douglas mackie is facing federal prison time for making a meme in the 2016
00:10:26.120 election using the ku klux klan act bingo but that's it that's important though because the
00:10:30.520 anti-semitism app sounds really act sounds popular maybe 20 years from now some christian who's
00:10:35.200 preaching first thessalonians 214 let's make sure tyler's uh mike is on yeah yeah good is gonna
00:10:42.760 give me have his home rated so i want to just say this first of all this was a show vote and mike
00:10:48.040 johnson screwed up a show vote here's usually what you do with a show vote no teeth we therefore say
00:10:53.680 that anti-semitism is wrong and bad and we're going to establish a committee to look into it totally
00:10:58.620 okay with that i'm gonna go further i'm not okay with it show votes are dumb why did you have well
00:11:03.140 they're dumb but what we have 300 days in session over the course of a congress fair enough but we
00:11:07.720 wouldn't you spent one of them on this we wouldn't go nuclear over a show vote okay okay so you know
00:11:12.080 i'm with blake i'm with blake on this i think it's like the wasted time stuff is like why are we
00:11:16.540 doing wasted time stuff no i'm just let me just kind of just say if their their defense some of them
00:11:20.820 is hey you know there's a lot of moderate members that wanted this it's a show vote no harm done no no
00:11:25.460 there actually is now harm done and so senator roger marshall i'm gonna get jack in this in a
00:11:30.000 second from kansas has now tweeted out this which is remarkable uh which by the way goes to show the
00:11:35.000 power of our program in social media he says the holy bible is the word of god i believe in the
00:11:39.660 sanctity of scripture and no person should change or alter those words if this bill comes to the senate
00:11:45.480 floor as is we will offer an amendment to honor the sanctity of scripture scripture by the way thank you
00:11:50.920 senator marshall for that very clear tweet i wish they would have read the bill before they actually
00:11:56.860 passed it jack i want to loop you in on this jack uh it seems as if this also could be an indirect hit
00:12:02.760 towards vatican one catholics jack do you sense what i'm saying here and can you kind of take it from
00:12:08.580 there yeah so pre-vatican one um there were continuous you still hear this in some tlm or traditional
00:12:16.400 masses um within the catholic church and not to get super into it so vatican one or which there
00:12:22.960 was no like vatican one but it's like pre-vatican two so pre-1960s you would hear in a lot of catholic
00:12:28.160 churches the prayer for the conversion of the jews uh the prayer for the conversion of the jews and so
00:12:33.180 this would be a uh a basic statement that the jews uh rejected jesus this led to the crucifixion and
00:12:40.220 the death of christ and then this is also something that catholics pray for um and specifically by the
00:12:46.600 way the conversion of the unfaithful jews and this was a common and regular just regular prayer and by
00:12:54.360 the way there was also a prayer for the conversion of pagans as well um and so let's say now that you're
00:13:01.000 the fbi which is already as we know using uh i'm not even actually sure what justification they're
00:13:08.000 using but they're claiming you know potential for radical extremist plots in order to infiltrate
00:13:13.680 using federal assets and informants into traditional latin mass churches and traditional
00:13:21.140 latin mass services now all of a sudden you've got a new law that says oh perhaps we can shut down your
00:13:27.520 church if we catch you praying this specific prayer which by the way all christians continuously pray
00:13:34.400 for the conversion of everyone to christ that's sort of a basic tenet of christianity but if you use
00:13:41.060 the wrong words now the federal government can go after you evidently and so let's let's continue in
00:13:47.200 here so uh if you go the the the definition gets worse and worse and you know there's been a lot of
00:13:53.460 emphasis rightfully so on the biblical part of this but let's just talk to another one of here if you um
00:13:59.440 if you now say that uh jews are more loyal to israel than to the priorities of jews worldwide
00:14:07.900 then you're an anti-semite but i i'm trying to understand what if there's an israeli citizen that
00:14:13.160 is visiting america yeah it's not an american citizen are you not allowed or like there are
00:14:17.820 people in america who have been arrested and thrown in prison for spying on the u.s on behalf of israel
00:14:23.600 like i'm sorry it is a fact of like this happens with other countries there are chinese people who come to
00:14:28.860 america and they are more loyal to china it's unfortunate this is a real phenomenon and to just
00:14:35.980 say like categorically you can't utter it or you'll be sued and you'll like get punished by the federal
00:14:42.240 government that's insane it might be hurtful to say that to like a lot of random people which is a thing
00:14:47.120 that's done it's not it's an ugly behavior to do but to say that it's illegal or you're going to use
00:14:53.980 the full force of the government and here i could just see how this is going to work so now you have
00:14:58.160 cat let's just take wyoming catholic college okay which is a really solid catholic school they haven't
00:15:04.500 gone woke are they now going to get a letter from the department of education in the next year five
00:15:09.460 years ten years where they're like hey uh can we see your missiles can we like see what you're teaching
00:15:17.580 in regards to like are you reciting hate speech in your liturgical it doesn't even have to happen
00:15:23.100 next year what if it happens in 20 years that's the point of the kkk act is that they'll pass this
00:15:27.820 stuff put it on the shelf next generation and they'll dust it off no more laws the less justice
00:15:34.020 and we need to take a step back hate speech is not a thing there's ugly speech there's gross speech
00:15:40.220 but hate speech is a term that is inherently subjective and the first amendment protects all speech that
00:15:45.820 doesn't call for violence and honestly outside of one of these examples on the international
00:15:49.680 holocaust museum which by the way i'm sure they do great work um is like not like oh the first one is
00:15:57.300 this if you call for the killing of jews that is direct incitement of violence no one should support
00:16:02.760 that okay but then you go to the third entry point accusing jews as a people i'm sorry accusing jewish
00:16:09.280 citizens being more loyal to israel or the alleged priorities of jews worldwide how about this one
00:16:12.360 applying double standards by requiring of it a behavior not expected or demanded of any other
00:16:17.880 democratic nation what does that even referring to israel they'll always say israel's held to a
00:16:22.100 double standard that they're expected to do things with regard to palestine that the u.s isn't expected
00:16:28.400 to do or china or russia or any other country they're not expected to do these things so they say they're
00:16:33.580 subject to a double standard may be true but again you're now saying the federal government is going to
00:16:39.520 police that people don't have the wrong opinions about a foreign government that so tyler help me
00:16:47.860 understand the politics of this mike johnson who is he's up against the wall right now he has to get
00:16:53.640 democrats to bail him out he's posting a vote he's facing a motion of ak the guy is not his popularity
00:16:58.840 has gone by 20 points yeah and he thinks it's a good idea to do this like did he read the bill did
00:17:04.180 mike johnson read the bill this is jumping the shark for sure like if there is a classical definition
00:17:10.340 of like trying to jump the shark and this is what i think and for those of our younger audience that
00:17:17.240 don't know the jumping the shark reference it was at the end of happy days again this is american
00:17:22.480 history right they put fonzie on water skis and had him jump over a fake shark on on the thing that's
00:17:29.900 where the term comes from this is i think this is what starts happening when you get desperate you
00:17:34.180 start doing weird stuff that you think is going to end up making you more popular and more protected
00:17:39.620 that's actually the opposite has the opposite effect where it's like actually people are now looking at
00:17:45.040 you even more and i'm afraid now we've drawn more attention to him the people who wanted to remove him
00:17:52.040 as speaker to begin with are now more upset right so now this isn't helping at all like why can't we
00:17:57.220 just come together and do things that are going to be like bring the republican caucus together i don't
00:18:01.160 i don't know things that like are populist that are going to help us in the general election
00:18:05.520 in 2024 i don't know this doesn't this does not appear to do those things and ironically if you read
00:18:12.740 the babylonian talmud it says um the idea that jews killed jesus also found in jewish religious
00:18:19.800 literature did you know this is according to my jewish learning.com now i'm just saying maybe i'm like
00:18:26.220 really did they cell phone where now you're not allowed to read from the talmud i'm just saying
00:18:31.020 like if in jewish folk literature it says right here um again this is my jewish learning.com
00:18:36.580 a teaching from year before 300 asserts that jesus was put to death by a jewish court for the crimes of
00:18:41.620 sorcery and sedition in standard text of the talmud from eastern europe or an american text that simply
00:18:46.000 copied from them there's a blank space towards the bottom of that folio because it's potentially
00:18:49.920 offensive text was removed the censorship may have been internal for self-protection or may even been
00:18:54.080 imposed on the jews by christian authorities in many new editions the talmud in the talmud this
00:18:58.640 passage has been restored the talmud's claim was that there was an event that took place in the eve
00:19:02.980 of passover is consistent with the chronology of the gospel of john in the talmudic account the romans
00:19:07.300 played no role in the death i mean even in the bible like what it essentially is is they accuse him of
00:19:13.400 blasphemy and then they go to the romans and they say he's a blasphemer and pontius pilate says
00:19:18.840 i don't care and they say well he's also undermining caesar and he's still kind of like
00:19:23.900 that that's sus but then they basically say you might get executed and so he's and they kind of
00:19:29.920 throw a temper tantrum and so he washes his hands of it as as it were that's right and they say give
00:19:36.040 us barabbas give us barabbas you know what that means in greek i believe it means the son the son of
00:19:40.780 man or the son of god abba father i have to look that up what does barabbas mean in greek let me
00:19:48.000 see son of the master son of the father yeah i was right yeah and so it's almost i again the bible
00:19:55.200 thing stands out but we do need to emphasize you can't fix the bible part you can't just throw in
00:20:00.080 the religious scripture is protected here and make this bill good this is still a bill that goes way
00:20:06.060 too far and what's sad about it big picture is this issue should be a huge winner for us because
00:20:12.340 you have obnoxious left-wing violent yes jerkwad students at columbia basically rioting to support
00:20:21.260 a terrorist group and their main opponents are a bunch of jerkwad academia heads who are also terrible
00:20:29.140 and we basically could just watch watch them rip each other to shreds and then send in the cops if they
00:20:34.260 get too violent and like arrest some people i want to get jack in on this jack if there was ever a time
00:20:38.080 for us to be lazy and do nothing we should have just took like the week off like if there's ever
00:20:42.000 a time for them to like take a break mike johnson be like just go home to your districts like just go
00:20:47.180 home it's i mean so there's in funny enough in ancient china okay they used to have this belief
00:20:56.380 called wu wei and it just it sort of means do nothing and this kind of came about like in the
00:21:03.600 13th century when the chinese dynasties were pretty much running all of asia and they were pretty much
00:21:08.980 the top of the heap when it came to asian cultures and so the idea was we've got the empire right where
00:21:15.400 we want it so just do nothing don't make any big moves and we'll stay winning and this was this was
00:21:20.560 pretty much fine until the british showed up with their gunboats and um this is kind of then the
00:21:26.720 chinese also have this other ancient saying don't interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake the
00:21:33.080 worst possible thing you could do total break of rules with radicals total break of base the basics of
00:21:39.260 information warfare is that if your enemy is fighting your other enemy there and themselves
00:21:44.960 essentially if the snake that you are fighting is eating its own tail don't step in and try to
00:21:50.360 save the snake and what you're doing is and what the republicans have done here is they've committed a
00:21:55.460 massive strategic blunder as usual where they're moving the focus of attention away from the protests
00:22:03.200 and onto themselves now fortunately for the republicans these protests which have descended into riots at this
00:22:10.720 point are so incredibly violent that it's kind of hard for the media to get away from it and even like
00:22:15.920 local media and mainstream media are broadcasting these images and so humans are visual creatures we
00:22:22.920 are going to remember these images it's a complete and massive optics fail for the democrats normies
00:22:28.740 centrists independents everyone is turning against this thing um which by the way if you're actually
00:22:34.220 for the people of gaza is probably you know not a good thing for you because uh this is just going to help
00:22:40.100 the israelis with their with with their public opinion because people are going to say i don't want to be
00:22:46.020 involved with the guys supporting the you know these protests and so it's it's ridiculous to me that
00:22:52.000 they're never never bet against the republicans when it comes to snatching defeat from the jaws of
00:22:58.580 victory but that's exactly what they've done here massive well and i want to bring this part point up too
00:23:04.160 because it's like this is maybe i'm just super innocent but this whole thing is just like so
00:23:09.780 tyler's the most innocent in the world ladies and gentlemen astounding to me is this entire thing
00:23:18.040 about you know taking such offense that you know the jewish population was not a big fan of jesus
00:23:24.920 and that they were responsible for his death it wasn't just him but it was the apostles they ran out
00:23:32.540 after they crucified jesus big time yeah they they ran him all over but but james was killed they had
00:23:40.300 brought him forward today and then that's what made all the 12 apostles disperse they they left
00:23:47.700 because they literally murdered james then after the crucifix of jesus so like again i i think there's
00:23:55.980 like a a certain sensitivity i understand around you know christian jewish relations around
00:24:02.520 the the topic of jesus and and what had the in the events that happened around that but like
00:24:09.100 again saying these things and and to your point back charlie is like you come into this whole thing
00:24:14.840 i'm just like so astounded that that this is i don't i don't think the average person walking on
00:24:21.660 the street would be offended by any of that conversation but now that that makes you a target by the
00:24:28.660 government is one of the scariest things ever that you could ever probably you know put into writing i
00:24:34.640 get frustrated because when you think of the big picture of how did this come around and it's that
00:24:40.140 it's like it's like we have bad ideological formation on high level republicans because
00:24:47.300 they can't they haven't had the process thought of yeah we've been defending free speech for the last
00:24:52.960 six years you know we've been worried about censorship online we've been worried about
00:24:57.760 censorship on campus we've been worried about democrats wanting to roll back all these speech
00:25:02.400 things and putting our guys in jail and then you know the neurons didn't fire right when this came
00:25:08.320 up to go like wait now we restrict speech that now good what like why didn't you this come together
00:25:17.560 where have you been this whole time yes it's just like what do you guys not learn get it
00:25:22.140 whole process yeah and they they constantly talk a good game on campus free speech like well not
00:25:27.480 actually not all free not all speech that's what they're saying yes and just oh suddenly we came up
00:25:32.620 this thing oh we're gonna roll back speech really bad and what stinks is i can kind of tell like they
00:25:39.140 just are being dumb and they'll figure it out but imagine you're a you know one of the centrists that
00:25:45.000 we're trying to win over i think a lot of those people will look and say the republicans are full
00:25:48.620 of crap they're just huge hypocrites they never cared about this in the first place and the answer
00:25:53.160 is a lot of people like us do care about it and i think even a lot of those guys care about it and
00:25:57.700 they're just they're dumb and kind of weak and they don't pay attention and they they thought they
00:26:05.100 could get an easy win and this is another problem i think a lot of the right has is they always want
00:26:10.560 to just go for some easy win that doesn't really require doing much of anything and so this guy
00:26:15.420 came along and said oh democrats are being dumb we can just pass this five-page bill and it'll show
00:26:21.220 that we're totally way better than the left and now all of the jews will vote for trump this fall
00:26:26.280 and it'll be great and just no no it doesn't work that way calls the bluff and it's gonna put it
00:26:32.240 yeah yeah but charlie like this is what i don't understand this is like what i i really do not get
00:26:37.540 is like i totally expect this out of like a lawler right and out of the new york republican to like
00:26:43.180 come up with this idea right this is like a a very standard like new york republican idea right
00:26:49.240 yeah let's censor our opponent well it's just like it's just like you know try to score points you know
00:26:56.420 and and whatever and i totally get the arguments and all that like republicans are winning over
00:27:01.400 jews and big numbers and so i i understand getting like easy wins politically even
00:27:07.520 if they're cheap wins like that's what the that's like the new york republican party's like whole
00:27:11.460 like mantra right now but like speaker mike johnson is literally what is he a baptist out of louisiana
00:27:17.540 it's like baptist yep it's southern baptist like how are you not like pausing for a moment like
00:27:22.560 calling like your own people no but they here's what's amazing is he was he was warned by eli crane and
00:27:30.740 others and fixed this he's like but eli crane's not like like the baptist extraordinaire i don't know his
00:27:36.680 religious there's no rush there's no rush this isn't the the government shuts down unless you
00:27:41.620 ban portions of the bible yeah but does he have a religious leader that he looks to that he could
00:27:45.620 pick up the phone and be like hey no that's the thing is a bunch of congressmen brought me this
00:27:49.580 how do you think you would feel a lot of pastors have been calling me saying they love this bill
00:27:52.920 are you really like like baptist just all across the spectrum yeah they think they think it's great
00:28:00.580 they think that we have to protect the jews and if it means forsaking free speech so be it not all
00:28:04.700 but some i've gotten 10 or 12 pretty uh forsaking the bible they don't they don't say say it's that
00:28:10.180 they say it's never going to happen that it's uh misreading it the devil's the devil's advocate is
00:28:14.440 that the bible is constitutionally protected and you can't you know wait i just saw these same
00:28:21.220 is it the same guys that got mad about the trump bible no it's it's separate ones but i will say this
00:28:27.060 though my argument to them is wait are memes constitutionally protected because douglas mackey's
00:28:31.700 going to jail for creating a political meme during an election campaign dusting off 150 year old law
00:28:36.520 so don't give me this like the courts are going to save us in the end because the law is sloppily
00:28:40.640 written they're not right i think that is so insane right i think i think it's shallow it is and by
00:28:47.700 the way no one the 14th amendment says we all get equal protection under the law and then they just went
00:28:52.720 and like made it so you could discriminate against white people for the last 50 years and the courts
00:28:56.860 really stopped that yeah i just can trust the law laws will never be abused against conservatives
00:29:03.600 especially the dc well no i just the the and i will say that there has been this is very interesting
00:29:09.480 and i have to get to one of our partners here the the support amongst the conservative movement
00:29:15.060 amongst influencers glenn beck ben shapiro matt walsh it's been pretty unanimous there's very few people
00:29:22.160 that are saying like this is a great idea like i think and i think we set the tone on that pretty
00:29:26.620 early it was like matt walsh and us out of the gate and all of a sudden people like read the bill
00:29:31.980 like yeah this is crazy because again show votes happen all the time they're nothing they just kind
00:29:36.020 of cast them aside this one is not a show vote this is real teeth and schumer is like oh okay and now
00:29:41.580 it just stinks because of course either they have to pass this crappy law which they might or they'll back
00:29:47.040 off and you know the democrats will spin it as you know to make republicans look like they don't
00:29:51.000 prepare they're dumb the senate is anti-semitic like they can do all sorts of silly stuff with it
00:29:56.940 yeah it's just the whole thing is just so poorly concocted and i think blake you make a great point
00:30:01.780 here what's the rush why couldn't mike johnson just be like let's wait a week let me make some calls
00:30:07.500 read this out let's kind of look at all the potential attacks here no and by the way this is very
00:30:12.400 important most bills 90 of all bills go through a committee process do you know this didn't go
00:30:18.520 through committee markup of course it did mike johnson bypassed the committee process in a committee
00:30:24.380 where law bills usually become law someone would have said wait a second this doesn't seem right and
00:30:29.440 you debate and you go through it this they just said no this is so important this is so urgent
00:30:34.780 that we're going to just throw this on the house floor and give joe biden's department of
00:30:39.540 education the ability no reading time no reading time no reading time and the ones who did he also
00:30:45.240 promised 72 hours mike johnson broke another yet promise which again is a theme remember when mike
00:30:50.180 johnson said i'm going to restore the 72 hour rule members literally had like six hours to read this and
00:30:55.320 to think about it and call experts on it he just does the bible say anything they still showed up does
00:31:00.500 the bible say anything about like promises and telling the truth well look beyond the decalogue do
00:31:06.640 not give fault with false witness or false testimony and so here's the other thing that's
00:31:11.400 just like a repetition with mike johnson it's one two three four and then all the republicans who
00:31:16.540 then oppose that now have to come out and give statements so now they're wasting time putting
00:31:20.560 out statements about how why they didn't vote on it what they had to do like can we not have our
00:31:26.720 republicans working on things that we need to get done like i don't know the border yeah like can we
00:31:30.440 not just like do things that are helpful but you know it's really interesting the um this is such a
00:31:35.400 good conversation the uh the media the way they've been covering it you would you would anticipate
00:31:40.880 republicans are anti-semitic the headlines have actually been largely sympathetic to our argument
00:31:46.300 believe it or not the new york times like i mean if you just look at it you look at some of the
00:31:49.880 articles there's kind of saying like right-wingers caution about this bill that is really poorly
00:31:57.220 written it's like the new york times article like that's not like a normal new york times article
00:32:02.060 at all they don't know what to do because the the radical progressives hate it right obvious
00:32:08.900 reasons for obvious reasons the they they want to use it to attack mike johnson to divide us more
00:32:15.820 it's like again this is the political you know textbook political stuff that like is like bad leadership
00:32:22.900 this is yeah so for example newsweek says republicans voting for bill that can make bible illegal
00:32:27.780 outrages maga raw story which is super left-wing fix this house republican spread theory mike johnson
00:32:34.480 just outlawed the new testament no this is my favorite new york times bill to combat anti-semitism
00:32:40.500 on campus prompts backlash from the right pretty fair i mean like that's pretty straight up the usual
00:32:46.440 headlines would be the rights descent into like jew hatred it's like or or christian christian
00:32:52.520 nationalism exactly christian nationalism rears its ugly head and in opposition exactly all right the
00:32:59.420 jewish bill i want to i want to um really quickly go to one of our partners here uh pds debt

00:34:09.540 slash charlie pds debt.com slash charlie let's just summarize this topic it's such a good one there's so
00:34:15.060 much meat on this bone still do you have a thought blake it's just what i would urge all conservatives
00:34:20.640 especially nominal conservatives in congress to do is to remember that as conservatives we care about
00:34:29.400 ideas we care about principles and we care about the actual text of the constitution for reasons above
00:34:36.160 like as a vehicle to obtain power we actually like the bill of rights so if someone says yo this this bill
00:34:44.140 might violate the this you know the bill of rights you should at least take them seriously
00:34:49.680 and read the text of the bill especially if it's only five pages long so james lindsey who's a great
00:34:55.480 friend says this idk who needs to hear this but house republicans did not just vote to make the new
00:35:00.000 testament illegal but we're going to watch a lot of people get radicalized to believe they did how
00:35:03.240 should you respond to that blake i think there's this weird desire to downplay this when it's just
00:35:11.500 obviously a bad bill and is it likely that the worst possible outcomes will come to pass
00:35:17.800 no is there a risk does it make it easier for those bad outcomes to come to pass yes and does it produce
00:35:24.940 literally any upside otherwise no the best case scenario that they are selling us on then
00:35:31.260 is that this is a symbolic bill you should never one i don't think you should pass symbolic bills
00:35:36.760 generally but two if you are it should have a giant sign at top that says this is purely symbolic
00:35:43.280 and does nothing by the way that's what resolutions that's what you have resolutions for
00:35:46.620 yes a resolution has no teeth by definition you resolve to make a statement i think the outcome is
00:35:52.440 most likely what you said charlie which is like this is gonna this is gonna be ugly way later on
00:35:58.540 yes so they'll they'll put it into law and then 10 years from now it'll just be used on on the
00:36:04.440 shelf oh we have that thing because but more laws less justice they control who enforces the law
00:36:09.440 so they find someone who breaks it and go yeah but we like to use canada as an example of bad things
00:36:13.900 that can happen so in the 1980s canada passed their kind of new constitution charter of rights and
00:36:19.060 freedoms i think they call it and i'm sure when they passed that everyone was told this will not have
00:36:24.680 any of those extreme outcomes you worry about and in the early 2000s they started using it to sue and
00:36:30.520 prosecute pastors who opposed gay marriage and such like if they read verses publicly read verses from
00:36:36.720 the bible that condemned homosexuality they got in trouble they were prohibited on distributing
00:36:41.620 literature or preaching and that's just a great example to go to of thing that was definitely never
00:36:47.020 ever going to happen happened and it just took 20 years so what's america going to be like in 20 years
00:36:51.980 if you don't know don't pass laws that can be used by those people well here's what i do know
00:36:57.080 is if the democrats take over the presidency they take over the senate and they take over the house
00:37:02.780 you we're going to see things that are so ugly with the the demolition of the constitution
00:37:11.800 and all of these things are going to be used against that and we talk about this all the time with ppp
00:37:16.940 stuff conservatives who took ppp money i think they're gonna have to live with that for the rest of
00:37:21.920 their lives like like literally the democrats are going to come after them they're gonna democrats
00:37:26.240 will come after you for every little thing every large thing and they're going to destroy the
00:37:30.820 constitution in the meantime because also one of the benefits from going after people with a little
00:37:36.020 stupid stuff like this is that they can do big things in the background because our eyes taken off
00:37:42.420 the bar they've sidelined our biggest voices okay let's get the next topic here the good news coming
00:37:47.940 from campus is frat boys apparently we have predicted that it is young young men radicalized
00:37:56.160 we've also witnessed it we've witnessed it we've seen we've i've been telling you tyler for a while
00:38:01.140 young men turning point action energy here if you're a 20 year old young man today you've spent your
00:38:06.260 entire life basically being told all of america's problems are your fault you're the worst thing in the
00:38:12.660 world you're an idiot in every single ad if you're allowed in an ad at all you're the villain of
00:38:18.060 every movie you're the villain of history like you have to read all these books that just say you're
00:38:23.000 the biggest piece of crap in the world and it seems that it's finally boiled over and we have young
00:38:29.320 guys who are tired of being yelled at all the time and they're doing i don't know if we want to call
00:38:35.800 it brave stuff but it's very entertaining stuff and public yes and so uh we saw this recently uh
00:38:42.600 right here at asu where the frat boys were employed to help clean out the uh attempted tent city to
00:38:50.020 protest and then we also had uh this very viral story uh we have a clip from uh fox news reporting
00:38:56.040 on it let's play uh clip number 87 one point yesterday in the quad the that flag was taken down
00:39:05.400 and replaced by a palestinian flag and it was surrounded by it looked like about a hundred
00:39:10.880 of the pro-palestinian activists well shortly after that uh the cops came in and they cleared those
00:39:18.740 people out and they took down the flag and they put up all glory just as it had been and look what
00:39:26.820 happened
00:39:28.820 uh
00:39:33.820 yeah
00:39:38.820 yeah
00:39:40.820 yeah
00:39:43.820 yeah
00:39:45.820 yeah
00:39:47.820 yeah
00:39:49.820 yeah
00:39:51.820 yeah
00:39:53.820 it's amazing and that's in north carolina
00:40:03.820 swing state so i want to just say this we have been traveling the country and tyler knows this
00:40:08.920 when i do these prove me wrong events thousands of young frat boys will show up
00:40:12.740 they love our content they love turning point usa and i'm telling you on the turning point action side
00:40:17.640 we're gonna have some big announcements in the fall right tyler we're gonna be having ballot
00:40:20.980 bring your ballot events with frat boys marching people with ballots in the midst of october in arizona
00:40:27.200 and in wisconsin and in michigan to get that frat boy energy literally we have ideas because it's 75
00:40:33.700 feet you can't campaign with a 75 feet perimeter is that right of a polling place of a polling place
00:40:37.560 or a drop box right
00:40:38.720 yeah
00:40:39.620 so we're gonna draw like you know 100 feet outside of the drop box
00:40:42.720 and we'll just have an event with like a bunch of young alpha men at asu and be like hey come get a
00:40:47.520 picture of charlie or don jr vivek and bring your ballot you gotta if you bring a ballot you get a picture
00:40:52.060 and you know do that for three weeks straight
00:40:53.740 show up with your ballot
00:40:54.640 show up with your ballot
00:40:55.800 if you want a great precedent here have you ever heard of the hard hat riot of 1970
00:40:59.700 uh you you sent it it was in new york right
00:41:01.920 yeah so this is 1970
00:41:03.400 this is right after
00:41:05.680 uh another big student
00:41:07.560 protest it was nixon announced that
00:41:09.620 you know he's bombing cambodia in the vietnam war
00:41:11.700 there were a ton of student strikes student protests student occupations
00:41:16.020 the kent state shooting happens around now
00:41:18.000 and there's a major protest in new york city
00:41:21.540 and what happens is
00:41:23.200 a thousand demonstrator or like a bunch of office workers and blue collar workers so
00:41:28.400 guys wearing hard hats
00:41:29.740 show up with uh american flags chanting pro usa slogans
00:41:33.960 and they get in a fight with all of the students
00:41:35.980 and richard nixon invites these hard hat guys
00:41:38.900 to the white house and two years later
00:41:41.900 he wins 49 out of 50 states
00:41:45.120 and then i assume everything worked out for him after that
00:41:47.500 and you know nothing bad happened to nixon after that
00:41:49.540 jack young men are going to save america
00:41:53.940 i believe politically this is a glitch in the polling matrix
00:41:56.760 we're seeing it in macro polling hill.com
00:41:59.760 young boys most conservative in 50 years
00:42:01.980 we see this with micro experiences on campus
00:42:04.760 this is a huge deal
00:42:06.420 and if it manifests donald trump does five or six points better
00:42:10.420 in dane county wisconsin uw madison
00:42:13.180 if he does five or six points better
00:42:14.980 at nau u of a or asu in arizona
00:42:17.960 joe biden's gonna have major problems
00:42:20.360 look if you're the gop right now watching this
00:42:25.300 you've got to go back
00:42:26.840 and like i don't understand why the gop
00:42:28.920 stopped courting fraternities to begin with
00:42:31.620 uh this was something that the gop did for years
00:42:34.560 by the way even up through the 2000s
00:42:36.600 even back when i first started doing field work
00:42:38.500 with republican parties
00:42:40.080 that it was very clear that we would work with frats
00:42:43.180 all the time to do stuff like this
00:42:45.140 including by the way voter registration
00:42:47.000 and ab chase
00:42:48.500 which is what um uh what ballot chasing
00:42:50.880 kind of used to be called ab chase
00:42:52.140 and absentee ballot chasing
00:42:53.740 and so it's it's very clear
00:42:56.100 this is a a natural alliance
00:42:57.940 i mean i kind of get it
00:42:59.100 that republicans became sort of not cool
00:43:02.140 during the bush years and neocons
00:43:04.700 and sort of like the the namby pamby
00:43:07.480 and just the physical swishiness and softness
00:43:10.780 and um fat-headed and fat-idead
00:43:14.000 people of the neocons
00:43:15.880 and like the eric erickson types
00:43:17.320 just really kind of drove away
00:43:19.180 a lot of the frat guys
00:43:20.400 that that's something where this is an energy
00:43:22.900 that donald trump has very much brought back
00:43:25.020 and if you're the gop right now
00:43:26.300 you've got to be asking
00:43:27.200 what are the biggest fraternities
00:43:29.180 on the biggest campuses
00:43:30.300 in the swing states
00:43:31.800 that i should be working out with
00:43:33.220 these are the guys
00:43:34.240 that we should be working with
00:43:35.240 to staff our field offices
00:43:37.000 come up with programs for them
00:43:38.420 give them credit
00:43:39.200 whatever it is that they need
00:43:40.640 to get a leg up
00:43:41.700 this is a clear natural alliance
00:43:43.520 and if the gop was smart
00:43:44.880 this is something they would
00:43:46.020 automatically be tying into
00:43:47.980 i i totally agree
00:43:50.160 and so tyler talk about politically
00:43:52.420 we're seeing this on the ground
00:43:54.080 this could be a major break
00:43:55.320 for the democrat party
00:43:56.260 yeah i mean
00:43:58.980 there's there's a lot
00:44:00.580 that's that's uh
00:44:02.540 you know
00:44:03.280 the democrats
00:44:05.000 have looked at
00:44:07.560 have been abusing us
00:44:09.280 for some time
00:44:10.160 big time
00:44:12.580 and for us
00:44:14.580 is
00:44:15.060 we're on college campuses
00:44:16.920 we're seeing young people
00:44:18.040 finally get to
00:44:19.240 a point where they're like
00:44:20.440 wait
00:44:20.800 why am i a democrat
00:44:22.640 why am i
00:44:23.960 sitting on the left
00:44:25.060 and you have a couple
00:44:25.700 of different vectors
00:44:26.420 that's happening
00:44:26.980 you have the pro-israel
00:44:28.840 piece right
00:44:29.760 because
00:44:30.080 there's so many
00:44:31.560 elements of
00:44:33.160 liberal culture
00:44:33.860 that have been pro-israel
00:44:34.900 and now you've got this
00:44:36.160 like
00:44:36.500 uh
00:44:37.460 the last 10 years
00:44:39.300 we've been part of this
00:44:40.320 and really suppressing
00:44:41.380 the anti-israel
00:44:42.360 on campus
00:44:43.040 uh narrative
00:44:44.280 and so a lot of people
00:44:45.380 are going like
00:44:45.780 wait
00:44:46.060 that's confusing
00:44:47.080 then you have
00:44:48.360 rappers coming out
00:44:49.300 supporting trump
00:44:49.960 you have rfk in the race
00:44:52.080 who right now
00:44:53.520 is pulling ahead
00:44:54.480 of
00:44:55.140 joe biden
00:44:56.560 significantly
00:44:57.140 with young people
00:44:57.940 in the under 30 category
00:44:59.340 so
00:45:00.220 you have this
00:45:01.300 really
00:45:01.800 yeah
00:45:02.740 everything's coming together
00:45:04.280 right now
00:45:04.740 that's happening on campus
00:45:05.620 with young people
00:45:06.320 in particular
00:45:06.840 you have parents
00:45:08.040 who are really concerned
00:45:09.820 about their kids
00:45:10.680 getting out of the house
00:45:12.400 after they turned
00:45:13.280 you know 21 22
00:45:14.620 getting out of college
00:45:16.160 that they don't want
00:45:16.880 to bring them back in
00:45:17.820 and have to
00:45:18.320 have them within the household
00:45:19.660 so
00:45:19.940 i think you have this
00:45:21.240 this
00:45:21.620 this coming together
00:45:22.760 of like four or five
00:45:24.060 different things
00:45:24.960 that's actually culminating
00:45:26.620 in a really bad scenario
00:45:28.420 for democrats
00:45:29.140 and so
00:45:30.120 this is why i said
00:45:31.200 i tweeted out
00:45:31.760 just this last week
00:45:32.360 i think they're gonna
00:45:32.940 and they know number one too
00:45:34.200 that we're
00:45:34.680 we're actually
00:45:35.420 figuring things out
00:45:36.920 on the right
00:45:37.420 in these key target states
00:45:38.940 they're gonna have to do
00:45:40.140 really radical radical things
00:45:42.020 between now
00:45:42.600 and october
00:45:43.620 well i mean
00:45:45.680 we're
00:45:46.800 i think
00:45:48.300 i actually think that
00:45:50.320 i mean i don't know
00:45:51.320 i don't want to
00:45:51.880 i don't want to get into this
00:45:53.060 i'll let blake get into
00:45:54.180 speculation about how
00:45:55.360 you know civil war
00:45:56.560 is gonna break out here
00:45:57.540 but you know
00:45:58.240 because he's a big believer in it
00:45:59.500 but i mean look
00:46:00.620 they
00:46:00.840 they i mean
00:46:02.980 they're gonna have to
00:46:04.760 he just wants it to break
00:46:05.820 they're gonna have to do
00:46:07.180 radical stuff
00:46:08.360 to
00:46:09.520 overcome
00:46:10.900 not just one or two narratives
00:46:13.260 but like four or five narratives
00:46:15.140 with their key target base
00:46:16.780 and i've been saying this a lot
00:46:18.300 and this is the reason why
00:46:19.340 and jack
00:46:19.720 you know
00:46:20.380 and i have sparred over
00:46:22.200 rfk's influence
00:46:23.380 on
00:46:23.600 on ballots
00:46:24.780 he's gonna pull away
00:46:25.680 even if he pulls
00:46:27.260 a little bit more away from trump
00:46:28.980 than he does from biden
00:46:30.800 the problem for democrats
00:46:33.300 is that they don't have a base to chase
00:46:35.580 because we're we're looking at
00:46:37.600 and the base to chase is really important
00:46:39.260 in the black community
00:46:40.220 we just were looking at these
00:46:41.420 at these numbers
00:46:42.160 the polling numbers are showing
00:46:43.560 that if you haven't ever voted in elections
00:46:45.880 as a black american
00:46:47.200 you're about 35 percent likely to vote for trump
00:46:50.400 well they can't just randomly pull
00:46:52.760 pluck black people
00:46:54.540 now to vote for democrats
00:46:56.400 young people now the polling is showing
00:46:58.500 that they are leaning more towards trump
00:47:01.600 than they are joe biden
00:47:02.640 and certainly towards rfk over joe biden
00:47:05.620 so they can't just pluck a young person now
00:47:08.160 so they're running out of groups
00:47:09.820 to go chase votes
00:47:11.440 particularly in arizona wisconsin
00:47:13.060 georgia other places nevada
00:47:14.680 and that's spells really bad things for them
00:47:17.840 so they have to do something
00:47:19.100 extraordinarily radical
00:47:20.920 to try to influence the election ahead of october
00:47:24.200 that's just my opinion
00:47:25.040 i just think that they have to do that
00:47:26.860 at this point because the numbers are
00:47:28.620 heading in the direction they're so bad
00:47:30.880 and they raised a lot of money for a party right
00:47:33.440 they did
00:47:33.980 they did
00:47:34.340 i want to mention two things quick
00:47:36.220 first someone in the comments is asking
00:47:37.960 if you are a freemason
00:47:39.100 because you did something called the triad claw
00:47:41.180 i don't know what that is
00:47:42.240 i'm not a freemason
00:47:42.860 a more serious one
00:47:45.680 someone does point out
00:47:47.120 and i think this is true
00:47:48.060 is i think the way that
00:47:50.760 the frat bros are swerving
00:47:52.940 there's really a divide that is happening
00:47:55.200 he says
00:47:55.700 it comes
00:47:56.780 this guy
00:47:57.640 ads626 says
00:47:59.220 it comes down to
00:48:00.400 the left is
00:48:01.520 cringe now
00:48:02.840 their art is garbage
00:48:04.140 the left is boring
00:48:05.360 and i think on top of that
00:48:06.660 the left is
00:48:07.680 it's like visually disgusting
00:48:09.760 yeah
00:48:10.640 the most appealing thing about these frat boys
00:48:12.460 is you look at them with the flag
00:48:14.000 and
00:48:14.360 they're
00:48:15.120 they're non-obese
00:48:16.420 they basically know how to
00:48:18.580 dress properly
00:48:19.780 they have normal haircuts
00:48:21.460 with normal hair colors
00:48:22.660 they don't have bizarre tattoos
00:48:25.080 upon their face
00:48:26.100 or upon their
00:48:26.900 you know
00:48:27.200 entire sleeve of their arm
00:48:28.380 and i think a real split
00:48:31.220 a real division
00:48:31.900 that is coming in american politics
00:48:33.480 is
00:48:34.500 essentially the divide
00:48:35.980 between people
00:48:36.920 who
00:48:37.600 you know
00:48:38.580 if you made a photo of them
00:48:39.780 black and white
00:48:40.500 it would look like
00:48:41.440 a photo from the old times
00:48:42.660 and people who
00:48:43.400 literally look like a goblin
00:48:45.280 or an orc
00:48:46.340 or some sort of cgi monstrosity
00:48:48.280 and in the long run
00:48:50.120 even though america
00:48:51.140 has some bad trends
00:48:52.220 i think there's a lot of desire
00:48:53.960 to have a society
00:48:55.800 of normal looking people
00:48:57.540 who can live normal lives
00:48:59.000 and be functional
00:48:59.700 so hold on
00:49:00.460 how long until the new york times
00:49:01.900 does a hit piece
00:49:02.520 on those kids
00:49:03.140 accusing them of
00:49:03.960 oh they're going to be
00:49:04.880 all over these kids
00:49:05.580 they're going to be all over
00:49:06.340 no i'm not
00:49:08.020 i'm not kidding
00:49:08.440 how long
00:49:08.800 they're going to be all over
00:49:09.580 by monday morning
00:49:10.520 there'll be a hit piece
00:49:11.240 saying that one of these kids
00:49:12.360 uh said a racist joke
00:49:13.920 or i guarantee
00:49:15.200 even if they do
00:49:16.380 i don't think it'll work
00:49:17.360 think about what they did
00:49:18.780 think about how bad it was
00:49:20.400 in was it 2018 or 2019
00:49:22.200 the um
00:49:23.400 uh the kids from kentucky
00:49:25.480 i'm totally spacing
00:49:26.300 on them
00:49:26.800 like all that they had
00:49:29.660 of them was a video
00:49:30.460 of them basically chanting
00:49:32.080 usa or something like that
00:49:34.580 and smiling awkward
00:49:35.600 and one guy smiling awkwardly
00:49:37.140 near that elder guy
00:49:38.800 banging a drum
00:49:39.520 and well i can't remember
00:49:41.500 the elders guy
00:49:42.060 yeah yeah nick sandman
00:49:43.000 was the kid
00:49:43.400 and they managed to just
00:49:45.100 take the imagery of that
00:49:46.140 like the the ability
00:49:47.260 to just smear
00:49:48.220 and essentially do
00:49:49.260 character assassination
00:49:50.200 on young white men
00:49:51.960 was so strong
00:49:53.040 they could just take
00:49:53.720 that video
00:49:54.240 and whip people
00:49:55.460 into a frenzy
00:49:56.360 and when you think
00:49:58.340 about it
00:49:58.720 the clip we just showed
00:49:59.920 is actually a lot
00:50:00.720 like that
00:50:01.220 they show up
00:50:01.920 and they surround
00:50:02.820 some hideous protesters
00:50:04.240 and chant usa
00:50:05.040 and have a flag
00:50:05.880 and kind of make
00:50:06.760 a bit of a ruckus
00:50:07.620 and people love it
00:50:08.960 and they like
00:50:10.040 can't even attempt
00:50:10.940 to smear them
00:50:11.660 over it anymore
00:50:12.420 and i do think
00:50:13.100 that shows
00:50:13.520 a pretty big shift
00:50:14.660 on its own
00:50:15.240 let's let jack get in here
00:50:15.600 jack
00:50:15.880 there's there's also
00:50:17.640 well just to pick up
00:50:18.980 where blake left off
00:50:19.860 it is a huge shift
00:50:20.960 but i would argue
00:50:21.740 that it's a shift
00:50:22.880 that's been in the works
00:50:24.620 for a decade
00:50:25.900 at this point
00:50:26.660 because what are we
00:50:27.740 one decade from
00:50:29.100 what happened
00:50:29.960 10 years ago
00:50:31.220 in the summer
00:50:31.960 of 2014
00:50:32.880 was the uva
00:50:34.720 rape hoax
00:50:36.380 yes
00:50:36.720 the rolling stone case
00:50:38.320 that came out
00:50:38.860 which really was
00:50:40.260 the start
00:50:41.460 of the me too movement
00:50:43.140 which was when
00:50:44.000 so much of wokeness
00:50:45.580 kicked off
00:50:46.340 when the wokes
00:50:47.740 really took over
00:50:48.960 when greek life
00:50:50.020 was pretty much
00:50:51.300 either destroyed
00:50:52.640 or ultimately neutralized
00:50:54.420 and cucked
00:50:55.040 all across america
00:50:56.420 and now
00:50:57.600 like the me too movement
00:51:00.100 has crested
00:51:00.860 the wokeness
00:51:02.600 has turned the corners
00:51:03.500 specifically in hollywood
00:51:05.080 and some of the other places
00:51:05.940 if you're
00:51:06.440 if you're looking closely
00:51:07.340 dei is seen
00:51:09.000 as a bad thing
00:51:10.160 crt is
00:51:11.120 is pretty much defeated
00:51:12.340 at this point
00:51:12.820 it's still limping on
00:51:13.900 but nobody's taking it seriously
00:51:14.980 or really championing it
00:51:16.420 in the public square
00:51:17.200 and now
00:51:19.020 all of a sudden
00:51:20.200 the frat boys
00:51:21.420 are back
00:51:22.360 and the frat boys
00:51:23.340 are asserting themselves
00:51:24.760 on campuses
00:51:25.680 and being applauded
00:51:28.100 for asserting themselves
00:51:29.760 on campus
00:51:31.220 and i said
00:51:31.900 i said earlier
00:51:32.700 on twitter
00:51:33.180 their um
00:51:34.320 the reintroduction
00:51:35.280 of frat boys
00:51:36.000 on campus
00:51:36.580 is like the reintroduction
00:51:38.280 of wolf
00:51:39.000 to yellowstone
00:51:39.960 in order to rebalance
00:51:41.480 the ecosystem
00:51:42.340 well and like
00:51:43.660 10 years ago
00:51:44.480 too jack
00:51:45.620 was really
00:51:46.780 the attacks
00:51:47.600 on frat boy culture
00:51:49.320 was because of the
00:51:50.960 the me too movement
00:51:51.980 was really an attack
00:51:53.140 on frat boy culture
00:51:54.120 and this is where
00:51:56.400 and it's really interesting
00:51:57.720 this is
00:51:58.100 in the
00:51:58.580 in the womb of this
00:52:00.000 was like
00:52:00.480 barstool was born
00:52:01.680 as like this
00:52:02.260 like alternative
00:52:03.100 media
00:52:04.540 and outside media
00:52:06.040 because the world
00:52:07.100 hated everything
00:52:08.040 about these people
00:52:09.060 and so people
00:52:10.220 normal people
00:52:10.960 alternative media
00:52:12.120 went to that
00:52:13.760 that type of
00:52:14.900 of a thing
00:52:15.680 and it was
00:52:16.280 really
00:52:17.220 looked at
00:52:18.720 poorly
00:52:19.300 especially within
00:52:20.520 normal culture
00:52:22.340 on a college campus
00:52:23.420 these kids
00:52:24.520 now it's like
00:52:25.120 it's like
00:52:25.460 newton's pendulum
00:52:26.620 what do they call it
00:52:27.240 the
00:52:27.500 where the pendulum
00:52:28.520 swings back
00:52:29.260 with the thing
00:52:30.300 was like
00:52:30.620 the entire motion
00:52:32.400 is coming back
00:52:33.300 now where people
00:52:33.900 are like
00:52:34.200 i am so sick
00:52:35.400 and tired
00:52:35.920 of seeing
00:52:36.760 like this stuff
00:52:37.460 i don't agree
00:52:38.060 with that just
00:52:38.820 like feels good
00:52:40.120 with blm
00:52:42.000 with everything else
00:52:42.920 like these nasty
00:52:44.260 ugly horrible
00:52:46.140 human beings
00:52:46.620 are just screeching
00:52:47.460 at the top of their
00:52:48.140 lungs on college
00:52:49.060 campuses
00:52:49.560 and like these kids
00:52:51.000 are just
00:52:51.380 again i think
00:52:52.180 the sandman
00:52:52.760 comparison is like
00:52:54.560 they're just quiet
00:52:55.620 quietly standing
00:52:56.720 there defending
00:52:57.880 the flag
00:52:58.520 and some of them
00:52:59.060 are quipping
00:53:00.060 and saying some
00:53:00.640 funny stuff
00:53:01.080 right but like
00:53:01.760 in general
00:53:02.560 like they're getting
00:53:03.540 screamed at
00:53:04.680 by these hordes
00:53:05.460 of people
00:53:05.840 that most americans
00:53:07.180 have no association
00:53:08.700 with and they can
00:53:10.160 relate way more
00:53:11.100 to the kids
00:53:11.600 defending the flag
00:53:12.380 and that's a huge
00:53:13.220 problem for the left
00:53:13.980 let's play cut 129
00:53:15.420 megan kelly
00:53:16.180 goes after the mutants
00:53:17.080 and by the way
00:53:19.640 why are they so
00:53:20.360 unattractive
00:53:20.940 i really legitimately
00:53:22.260 want to know
00:53:22.780 why are all the
00:53:23.780 protesters so homely
00:53:24.860 i don't think
00:53:25.800 they're unconnected
00:53:26.460 i'm not gonna lie
00:53:27.120 i think attractive
00:53:28.200 smart people
00:53:28.920 are not drawn
00:53:29.860 to this nonsense
00:53:30.500 they're living their
00:53:31.220 lives being successful
00:53:32.580 it's the unattractive
00:53:34.660 and or dumb
00:53:36.040 people who feel
00:53:37.520 the need to do this
00:53:38.400 to feel like they
00:53:39.000 matter
00:53:39.280 sorry
00:53:39.980 you don't have to
00:53:41.660 be sorry megan
00:53:42.200 that's totally true
00:53:42.940 i think it's also
00:53:45.200 as the saying goes
00:53:46.380 like nature abhors
00:53:47.400 a vacuum
00:53:47.980 and there's so much
00:53:49.700 nihilistic energy
00:53:51.320 on the left
00:53:52.080 of rip apart
00:53:53.340 america
00:53:53.860 rip apart
00:53:54.440 civilization
00:53:55.120 it there's so much
00:53:57.420 joy of just
00:53:58.280 literally frat bros
00:53:59.360 who love america
00:54:00.280 and i do think
00:54:02.940 that's that's
00:54:03.580 something the right
00:54:04.080 would do well
00:54:05.240 to think of
00:54:05.900 is i do think
00:54:06.740 it's very easy
00:54:07.400 for the right
00:54:07.780 to fall into
00:54:08.420 a lot of negativity
00:54:09.320 there are many
00:54:09.900 things to be
00:54:10.380 negative about
00:54:10.980 but the last
00:54:12.700 republican president
00:54:13.800 who you know
00:54:14.560 just kicked a huge
00:54:15.720 amount of ass
00:54:16.340 was ronald reagan
00:54:17.740 and ronald reagan
00:54:18.760 whatever his
00:54:19.620 uh pluses and minuses
00:54:21.420 one of his biggest
00:54:22.140 strengths was
00:54:23.020 he was a relentlessly
00:54:24.460 positive person
00:54:25.760 he exuded
00:54:26.560 positive vibes
00:54:28.040 and i do think
00:54:29.180 we'd do well
00:54:29.700 to cultivate that
00:54:30.560 of just oh yeah
00:54:31.080 frat bros
00:54:31.640 who love america
00:54:32.320 we love the flag
00:54:33.200 we it's great
00:54:34.180 here's some stuff
00:54:35.020 these are the heirs
00:54:36.260 the guys who won
00:54:36.940 world war ii
00:54:37.540 whether that's
00:54:38.060 literally true or not
00:54:39.280 and you'll get a lot
00:54:41.080 of uh surprising
00:54:42.080 allies that way i think
00:54:43.400 well i i asked the
00:54:44.460 question of somebody
00:54:45.180 today i was like
00:54:46.000 when you when you're
00:54:47.880 you're comparing
00:54:48.760 yourself to the
00:54:49.320 because whenever
00:54:50.040 we see the abortion
00:54:51.080 rallies who's out
00:54:52.540 front it's like the
00:54:53.800 nasty ugly
00:54:55.340 you know super left
00:54:57.980 it's always
00:54:58.580 it's always a bunch
00:54:59.900 of lesbians
00:55:00.440 i don't know why
00:55:01.360 they care about
00:55:02.120 abortion that much
00:55:02.940 we talk about this
00:55:03.460 all the time
00:55:03.760 like why is it
00:55:04.760 the like the
00:55:05.400 lesbians that care
00:55:06.260 most about abortion
00:55:07.240 they're the least
00:55:07.820 likely to to to
00:55:09.580 fall into that trap
00:55:10.600 right but you know
00:55:12.240 you look at all
00:55:12.820 these these people
00:55:13.640 and it's like people
00:55:14.420 do you want one of
00:55:16.260 those people as your
00:55:16.920 next door neighbor
00:55:17.460 do you want one of
00:55:18.840 those people what
00:55:19.780 would you do if a
00:55:20.920 fat crazy lesbian
00:55:23.540 showed up to you
00:55:25.620 know fix your your
00:55:27.180 sink that that was
00:55:28.240 the plumber that
00:55:29.380 showed no they're
00:55:30.360 they're more likely
00:55:31.400 to associate with
00:55:32.440 people who are going
00:55:33.180 to be the people
00:55:34.640 who save you at
00:55:36.000 that time that
00:55:36.420 that's the doctor i
00:55:37.420 want to see is one
00:55:38.140 of the frat kids
00:55:38.860 right that's the
00:55:40.160 plumber i want to
00:55:40.880 see that i'm calling
00:55:41.460 because i have a
00:55:42.200 leak in the middle
00:55:43.060 of the night that's
00:55:44.780 the those are the
00:55:45.520 people in the future
00:55:46.220 that i want coaching
00:55:46.920 my kids or teaching
00:55:48.100 my kids i don't
00:55:49.100 trust the people that
00:55:50.140 are screaming you
00:55:51.820 know and and throwing
00:55:53.580 their hands in the air
00:55:54.740 and trying to
00:55:55.560 destroy the country
00:55:56.380 like i would never
00:55:57.300 trust that for my
00:55:58.200 society and at some
00:55:59.120 point it's a very
00:55:59.780 community driven
00:56:00.500 thing i want to put
00:56:01.980 that visual back up
00:56:03.200 on screen here of
00:56:04.580 the frat boys holding
00:56:07.140 up the flag you can
00:56:08.760 see why this has
00:56:10.100 resonated so much
00:56:10.820 because this is the
00:56:11.540 image that you're
00:56:11.940 supposed to hate look
00:56:12.920 at all the things
00:56:13.480 you're supposed to
00:56:13.940 hate in one picture
00:56:14.640 you're supposed to
00:56:15.440 hate the flag you're
00:56:16.700 supposed to hate that
00:56:17.220 they're men because
00:56:18.160 they hate that they're
00:56:18.720 standing up against a
00:56:20.060 power structure using
00:56:21.440 their testosterone and
00:56:23.200 using courage because
00:56:24.280 they don't know how
00:56:24.740 it's going to work
00:56:25.180 out it's all dudes
00:56:26.240 right i said they're
00:56:27.600 men right you hate
00:56:28.740 out that they're white
00:56:29.780 right you hate that
00:56:31.380 they're part of a
00:56:32.240 fraternity that doesn't
00:56:33.520 allow women in there
00:56:34.920 uh all of they hate
00:56:36.700 that that picture is
00:56:37.740 what you're supposed to
00:56:38.840 be um incensed about
00:56:41.700 and when you when you're
00:56:43.540 around sincere liberals
00:56:46.740 it really does come out
00:56:47.900 they are mentally unwell
00:56:49.640 people because they
00:56:50.920 actually do come unhinged
00:56:52.360 at just imagery like
00:56:54.340 that you'll just they'll
00:56:55.320 see they'll see that and
00:56:56.560 it just it causes a dark
00:56:58.300 feeling in their stomach
00:56:59.340 they they can't handle
00:57:00.480 that and i think it is a
00:57:02.720 failure of the right to
00:57:03.700 not highlight that as
00:57:05.360 much as we can these
00:57:06.380 people are freak shows
00:57:07.700 they're weirdos they're
00:57:09.400 awful this is one of the
00:57:10.840 best reasons you know
00:57:11.620 that's why you should run
00:57:12.320 against hr departments
00:57:13.860 everyone's been around an
00:57:14.920 hr department and
00:57:15.900 they're you know not
00:57:17.800 fully human beings in a
00:57:19.300 lot of ways no they're
00:57:20.360 very human we're kidding
00:57:21.780 are you saying if you
00:57:22.540 if you if you if you
00:57:23.720 work in an hr department
00:57:24.660 you shouldn't serve on a
00:57:25.460 jury blake you know
00:57:28.500 toby flinderson something
00:57:29.780 like that also one of
00:57:31.420 our listeners great
00:57:33.580 inspiration says stop
00:57:35.000 please stop calling these
00:57:35.980 people kids i hold to
00:57:37.420 the principle that
00:57:38.040 everyone at least 24
00:57:39.460 hours younger than me is
00:57:40.860 a kid and so i'm going
00:57:42.600 to call them kids well
00:57:44.540 no i do want to talk
00:57:45.420 about kids actually blake
00:57:46.420 because there is a quick
00:57:47.240 addendum to this that you
00:57:48.700 and i were chatting about
00:57:49.560 beforehand and we were
00:57:51.820 talking about not just
00:57:52.760 colleges and the
00:57:53.880 reintroduction of frat
00:57:54.820 boys but also about the
00:57:56.760 reintroduction of bullies
00:57:58.840 in a sense to to sort of
00:58:01.640 the high school middle
00:58:02.500 school culture and so this
00:58:03.840 is something where bullies
00:58:05.760 were removed through
00:58:06.780 anti-bullying programs and
00:58:09.120 because of this what we get
00:58:10.540 are you know these school
00:58:12.220 programs where something
00:58:13.320 goes wrong and someone says
00:58:14.780 something and it all gets
00:58:15.840 reported up to the teacher
00:58:17.460 it all gets reported up
00:58:18.520 to the council it all gets
00:58:19.860 reported up to the
00:58:20.620 principal and nobody is
00:58:22.460 actually ever dealing with
00:58:24.200 conflict directly anymore
00:58:26.220 and so you teach people
00:58:27.620 this learned helplessness
00:58:28.740 of oh i can't you know deal
00:58:32.140 with anything interpersonally
00:58:33.420 or directly because there's
00:58:35.620 no bullies to overcome i've
00:58:37.100 got to go complain and file
00:58:38.560 the complaint and write a
00:58:39.680 report about it and it has
00:58:40.920 to go to some committee
00:58:41.740 rather than actually having
00:58:43.400 people deal with things on
00:58:44.760 their own and i i've said
00:58:46.440 for years this has led to
00:58:47.900 stunted growth and so i
00:58:50.560 would support some some
00:58:52.920 reasonable you know
00:58:54.680 reintroduction of bullies
00:58:56.420 into the ecosystem even at a
00:58:58.140 younger level here's just the
00:59:00.780 craziest part about this
00:59:01.860 entire thing with the
00:59:03.320 different the flag and
00:59:04.280 everything else it wasn't
00:59:05.760 that many years ago right
00:59:07.380 that we had like literally
00:59:09.060 the left of the entire
00:59:10.600 country worked up into a
00:59:12.820 frenzy on kneeling for
00:59:14.440 colin kaepernick colin kaepernick
00:59:17.040 everything else and in the
00:59:19.480 in in the right right now is
00:59:21.780 you know busy doing idiotic
00:59:23.820 stuff in congress and
00:59:24.660 everything else like this is
00:59:25.640 the perfect opportunity for
00:59:27.900 leaders of this country to
00:59:29.660 come out and say wow what an
00:59:31.800 incredible job like instead of
00:59:34.360 like waiting for the new york
00:59:35.460 times to like attack these kids
00:59:37.240 give them a hero's welcome talk
00:59:39.620 about this and put this in the
00:59:40.920 face of americans and say just a
00:59:43.040 few years ago we were kneeling
00:59:44.340 on flags and throwing flags
00:59:47.100 down on campus and we have
00:59:49.080 people look how far this is
00:59:50.760 gone we have people kids that
00:59:53.040 were raised right that are
00:59:54.080 defending the flag and this is
00:59:55.160 what we should be doing that's
00:59:56.400 what we should be doing
00:59:56.900 leadership i want to tell you
00:59:58.620 guys about the wellness
01:00:00.520 company it's an amazing kit the
01:00:02.900 contagion emergency kit the u.s
01:00:05.380 government has collaborated with
01:00:06.400 chinese scientists again on a
01:00:08.200 project aimed at making certain
01:00:09.660 strains of the avian flu more
01:00:11.220 infectious and more deadly and
01:00:13.360 eyes are on the university
01:00:14.220 of wisconsin while they run
01:00:15.160 gain of function research on
01:00:16.280 this brood bird flu strain sound
01:00:18.700 familiar so what do we think
01:00:20.140 will happen next well someone
01:00:21.200 gets infected with the bird flu
01:00:22.340 of course and then shockingly
01:00:23.720 scientists begin saying that
01:00:25.200 this particular bird flu strain
01:00:27.140 could be a hundred times worse
01:00:28.360 than covid so how long until
01:00:29.840 forced masks forced lockdowns
01:00:31.560 forced vaccinations is this all to

01:01:29.040 be prepared what's our final talk
01:01:30.240 about here like what we have we
01:01:31.640 have two options we could talk
01:01:32.800 about uh the fertility crash or we
01:01:35.200 could talk about the uh bullet
01:01:37.820 crashing into christy gnome's dog's
01:01:39.380 head i think the fertility one's a
01:01:41.320 good i mean i think the dog thing
01:01:42.840 let me just the dog thing we can do
01:01:44.120 very simply i'll i'll just read the
01:01:46.940 politico headline of politico.com
01:01:49.180 right now christy gnome's vp chances
01:01:51.440 appear as dead as the dog she killed
01:01:53.080 there are other reasons too i think
01:01:55.060 that's the end of the topic all i want
01:01:57.780 to say is to defend the good people of
01:02:00.180 uh of my home state of south dakota
01:02:02.140 and also the related state of north
01:02:04.000 dakota i just i think people do
01:02:06.600 struggle to know what like the culture
01:02:08.420 gap is like on actual like farm rural
01:02:11.380 country i i wasn't sure so i called my
01:02:14.680 dad and i asked about this and he said
01:02:16.620 you know he grew up in rural north
01:02:18.660 dakota in a town of 400 people and he
01:02:20.660 said we had a dog it caused problems and
01:02:23.920 my dad would rather drive to the moon
01:02:27.060 than drive to a vet and pay the vet money
01:02:30.220 to do what he could do himself and i think
01:02:33.900 that's an attitude we've actually lost
01:02:36.120 we've become very used to not handling
01:02:38.560 our own problems directly and it's
01:02:40.960 almost unsettling for us to see someone
01:02:42.800 do it that said yeah she's not going to
01:02:45.100 be vice president anymore that's correct
01:02:47.420 you have a thought on killing dogs no but
01:02:50.260 i i i believe that dogs people care more
01:02:53.720 about dogs than they do kids of course in
01:02:55.740 america that's our next topic and that's
01:02:57.640 a tragedy it actually ties into fertility
01:02:59.100 right which is this this entire thing
01:03:01.000 and so unfortunately to be successful in
01:03:04.600 politics i don't think you should attack
01:03:06.520 pets well which but people would rather
01:03:10.140 have pets than kids and the fertility rate
01:03:12.540 is the lowest it's ever been what we're
01:03:15.340 down to 1.62 on average births per woman
01:03:19.480 in the united states in 2023 if you project
01:03:22.040 outwards uh that is the lowest level they
01:03:25.060 say lowest since 1979 um or it's the lowest
01:03:28.960 number of babies since 1979 i believe is
01:03:31.420 the lowest fertility rate ever recorded
01:03:33.580 in the u.s. and it pairs with another
01:03:37.660 interesting uh data point that we just
01:03:39.820 looked up because what i think is very
01:03:42.640 common is you know with the populace right is
01:03:45.860 they'll present this as an economic
01:03:47.140 problem people are having fewer kids
01:03:48.820 because housing is expensive because
01:03:51.520 because they're getting these college
01:03:53.200 degrees and they're in a ton of debt and
01:03:55.420 so it's all costly and difficult to have
01:03:57.240 a family but what i looked up and i found
01:03:59.960 really interesting and it's 132 yeah it's
01:04:02.420 on screen there is if you look at the
01:04:04.440 number of kids by income group and you
01:04:07.300 will see it is highest for people who have
01:04:09.660 more money but it's an extremely high
01:04:12.300 amount of money it's people making over a
01:04:13.980 million dollars per year if you are
01:04:17.240 making 500 to a million 500 000 to a
01:04:20.700 million dollars per year you still have
01:04:23.260 only about 1.85 kids you're still having
01:04:27.140 fewer kids than people who make 25 000
01:04:29.840 a year uh the lowest in the lowest number
01:04:33.240 of kids is in the group of people who are
01:04:34.760 making over 200 000 even they're having
01:04:37.980 less than people than people who make half
01:04:40.260 as much as they do and so i feel like we
01:04:44.720 talk a lot about the economic reasons
01:04:46.420 people don't have kids but i think we're
01:04:48.540 struggling to grapple with the real
01:04:51.960 phenomenon which is we have kind of
01:04:54.000 culturally killed off the idea of having
01:04:56.000 large families people don't want to have
01:04:57.780 kids and it's going to destroy america
01:05:01.240 jack why is this the case
01:05:02.980 well for the higher end i think there's
01:05:09.040 obviously more access to treat fertility
01:05:11.560 treatments like uh like ivf and surrogacy
01:05:15.160 you got people like elon musk that are uh
01:05:18.320 doing everything they can to break the
01:05:20.240 trend of low fertility rates but so here's
01:05:23.300 what's really interesting and i and i
01:05:24.880 actually looked this up earlier is that
01:05:26.840 the the rates of people for families who
01:05:30.880 have children um is relatively steady it was
01:05:36.180 it's it's it's gone lower and it's ticked up it
01:05:38.740 was gone from like 2.3 in the 1960s went down
01:05:42.400 to 1.8 i don't think it ever broke under 1.8
01:05:45.560 but now it's back up to 1.94 so for families who
01:05:49.160 choose to have kids is what i'm talking about
01:05:51.660 the rate has been somewhat steady the rate
01:05:55.180 that's increased is the families that have
01:05:57.680 decided to no longer have kids or people who are
01:06:01.080 not getting married in general so you've got a
01:06:03.120 rise of something that's completely new in america
01:06:05.480 the dink couple so double income no kids and then
01:06:08.920 also the rise of simply or i should say the decline in
01:06:12.920 marriage rates and so you've got this is really
01:06:16.000 something where i know there's a lot of people who want
01:06:18.520 to run around and just point to one thing and say oh it's
01:06:21.580 video games or oh it's weed or oh it's porn or oh it's
01:06:24.560 easy access to abortion and the real and you know it's
01:06:27.700 women's liberation it's the 19th amendment
01:06:29.440 the real answer is it's it's actually a lot of factors it's a
01:06:34.200 lot of factors combined um uh one thing that i do think we
01:06:37.800 should talk about though is economy because it's certainly
01:06:39.960 uh something that gets left out of the conversation a lot economy
01:06:43.260 does play a role as does by the way the high levels of
01:06:46.340 immigration that america is currently receiving
01:06:48.520 high levels of immigration lead to downward pressure on wages
01:06:52.280 downward and upward pressure on the housing market this in turn
01:06:56.400 makes it harder for people to have money on in terms of real wages
01:07:00.200 and it makes that it gives us the housing crisis that we are
01:07:02.720 currently in and so aoc i remember made this point a lot of
01:07:06.040 people make this point all the time in the immigration debate
01:07:08.420 they say we need more immigrants elon musk says it all the time even
01:07:11.640 though i've been correcting him and he's getting better at it
01:07:14.160 they keep saying we need more immigrants because the birth rate is down
01:07:17.820 but they're not actually assessing the fact that the high
01:07:21.800 immigration rate is actually depressing our birth rate
01:07:25.800 that's right i think what actually a reason that that is the case
01:07:31.120 is i think really high when you have really high immigration and
01:07:36.360 you can see the community around you changing extremely rapidly
01:07:40.040 it's sort of it breaks the cultural script that you live in
01:07:45.340 uh it's an interesting phenomenon because we can sort of see this
01:07:48.840 they've tried to study this in individual like villages in india
01:07:52.040 because you'll have villages in india that have like high birth rates and ones
01:07:55.140 that have very low birth rates
01:07:56.480 and it's like when you break up the the narratives that give society its force
01:08:03.380 and so i think it's actually probably lots of diversity lots of change
01:08:07.940 technological and social and so on
01:08:10.160 it makes people feel detached from everything they don't get what their role in the world is
01:08:15.940 and it's that feeling of having a role in a greater whole that makes you want to perpetuate it
01:08:22.000 and makes you pair off with someone and have a family and and keep it all going
01:08:25.920 and we've sort of blown that up and you just are an atomized person and when you live in that
01:08:32.800 and you feel like you're not living for anything it's very easy to just check out and say yeah what
01:08:36.980 matters most is like have a lot of fun and then you know punch your ticket out well and i think
01:08:41.980 final thought tyler yeah oh i was just gonna say i think social media plays such a role into that i think
01:08:46.440 instagram alone has i don't know what the rates look like since instagram like came out but like with
01:08:52.240 women who generally wear the pants in the relationship when it comes to determining when births are going to happen
01:09:00.100 uh i i hear they have a big part in that they they play a big part in that i don't ask a liberal but
01:09:06.540 you know that's that's the big thing they're on instagram you have your your women in america
01:09:12.280 and in pocketed communities they're looking at everything that everybody else says every other
01:09:18.220 family does and you know knowing their role in society in a family in their own community i think is
01:09:26.260 really interesting it's like part of that conversation we'll pick this up next week guys
01:09:30.760 thank you so much uh make sure you guys subscribe to the rumble channel and subscribe to our podcast
