This week, we're joined by Ed Morgan, Dinesh D'Souza, Nicole Arbour, and Bob Morgan to discuss the current state of the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, and what it means to be a liberal in the modern era.
00:00:43.000I got to the point where I could feed hopper cheese and biscuits four times a week, but mostly I just sat out there making videos on my channel.
00:00:55.000Well, one night I was doing much of nothing, just staring at the YouTube.
00:01:01.000Searching on a PragerU video for the Electoral College.
00:01:07.000All I could find was some nerd trying to make up tutorials in my suggested feed.
00:01:14.000So I logged into my YouTube account to see what was wrong with it.
00:01:20.000Turns out every video had been put in restricted.
00:01:25.000I haven't been unsubscribed from Lighter with Crowder, my favorite channel.
00:04:59.000Alright, listen, before we move on, first off, question of the day.
00:05:02.000Have you found that debate, because we'll be getting into this, a clip from The Rebel, which I think is emblematic of how the left debates.
00:05:17.000We often hear about the radical left and finding the center.
00:05:19.000What percentage of today's Democrats would you put under sort of the classical JFK liberal versus perpetual victim complex progressive today?
00:05:26.000Give a percentage point, let me know, because I think they're a significant majority.
00:05:29.000And when you're a majority, You're no longer radical fringe as it relates to the progressive wing!
00:08:12.000Listen, that was my favorite movie as a kid.
00:08:14.000Turning our attention to Hollywood, Ryan Reynolds is attached to a revision of the film Home Alone.
00:08:18.000This one's called Stoned Alone, centering around new guests at a pothead, though actually it seems the title might need to be renamed as to not confuse it with the Saudi Arabian holiday cult classic Wherein a Woman Drove by Herself.
00:08:32.000It's basically just a cross between Baby Driver and Not Without My Daughter.
00:10:08.000That is the dumbest, I mean obviously you're talking about rape, so I'm not making fun of that, but that's like the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
00:12:34.000Dammit, I'll tell you when Cockburn's had enough!
00:12:36.000You may not like Cockburn, you may not like the methods, you may not even like the fact that Cockburn will push you to your limits just to find out what they are.
00:12:44.000But my god, there's no one better for this case than Cockburn.
00:12:48.000And the only reason you're still standing here is because you know it, you son of a bitch!
00:12:51.000Sir, I don't think it's a good idea, not since Oakland- I know about Oakland, don't you think I know about that?
00:12:56.000But sir, Cockburn's wife was killed by a cockless man!
00:13:01.000If you want to have a job in my precinct, you keep your f***ing mouth shut about Oakland or you'll be selling cigarettes out of a bodega on 8th and Wacker between being a hobo's play toy so fast it'll make your head spin, do you hear me?
00:13:12.000I wouldn't call on Cockburn unless absolutely necessary.
00:13:16.000My God, when you're out there with cockless monsters roaming these streets with no end in sight, and you need the best damn person for this hyper-specific niche milieu, you thank the sweet Lord Jesus that someone exists out there like Cockburn.
00:14:29.000At the pitch meeting in between, you know, needing oxygen, if you read the story, the guy had a very well-thought-out plan to hide the fact that he never peed his pants.
00:17:18.000It was perfect to crystallize the techniques, the tactics that the left use right now when it comes to debating.
00:17:23.000And mainly there are five and you've heard us talk about them, but we wanted to take a video and give you a play-by-play just in case there were any doubts.
00:17:30.000So, let's go to the first clip where right away this person, by the way, this is after the Toronto, to set the context, after the Toronto shooting.
00:20:50.000By the way, this is just not necessarily a point, but just for complete bonus stupidity and insanity, this is the kind of argument that only the insane rant about.
00:22:01.000She's just following chicken liberal, Toronto Mayor, who instead, by the way, used this exact same tragedy to immediately pivot to gun control.
00:22:09.000You've heard me ask the question of why anybody would need to buy 10 or 20 guns, which they can lawfully do under the present laws.
00:22:16.000And that leads to another question we need to discuss.
00:22:20.000Why does anyone in this city need to have a gun at all?
00:22:24.000And I know even answering that question won't fully eliminate tragedies like this, but even if we can prevent one of these incidents, then in my view it is a discussion
00:23:13.000Now this is the kind of derangement, and I do mean derangement, that leads to tweets like this from Toronto Novelist and I think Vice Writer, who wanted to put a ban, quote, on white men.
00:23:21.000Just because he's looking for a reason to be crazy.
00:23:23.000And this was before they found out he was a Muslim.
00:23:53.000When did you think freedom was going to, and yeah, I know you don't quite have the same kind of freedom, obviously, not even close in Canada, but for here, it's messy.
00:26:38.000You quoted Trump, therefore you're done here because I said that Trump was racist and you are and now you're a racist quoting another racist.
00:28:00.000Right here, if you were to say, I know my amendment rights to a police, just on a routine stop, they'd say, all right, let's put you in the breathalyzer.
00:28:21.000So, to recap, they go racism, deny your right to speak, mob mentality, then play the victim, and then if that doesn't work, they just really want you to shut up.
00:28:29.000They either present someone else who knows more, like, there's consensus from scientists who cannot be here right now, or they say, or they say, or look at this degree, therefore, I'm a, what's the name of the socialist?
00:29:27.000I just want my ice cream with a side of pretend rights.
00:29:29.000Yes, side of amendment rights that don't exist in my country.
00:29:32.000Here with all of this is what's even more scary.
00:29:35.000These are the lamentations of the ragefully insane.
00:29:38.000It wouldn't be such a big deal if it was just this crazy tiny minority of people relegated to insane asylums being dipped in electrical shock water like Shutter Island.
00:29:46.000If that were it, you'd be like, okay, there are a few people out there.
00:29:48.000Instead, and this is what we've been talking about, that's why I want to know what you think the percentage is of radical left-wingers, what they make up of today's progressive wing, versus the moderates, because this person is You guessed it, teaching your children.
00:30:00.000What do you do for a living right now, ma'am?
00:30:05.000I keep getting young about people like you and about your agendas and about the racist crap that you guys propagate in my city after a tragedy.
00:30:13.000It's her face going, yeah, yeah, I teach.
00:30:16.000That's the face of, yeah, I get your kids for seven hours a day and I get to force feed them my bullcrap saying that you're racist and that capitalism is wrong and that so, and guess what?
00:35:28.000Well, you know, I think what it is, is that the Democratic Party these days, the Democratic Party used to be the party of the working class, and the Republican Party was the party of the business class.
00:35:39.000But now the Democratic Party is reorganized, and it's essentially, I believe, it's the party of the ethnic plantation.
00:35:46.000Now, of course, originally Stephen, the party of the slave plantation, but today that plantation has gone multi-racial.
00:35:55.000And so they've got not just the black ghettos, they've got the Latino barrios, they've got the Native American reservations.
00:36:02.000So they don't like to campaign for votes individually, they just want to collect each ethnic group Deposit you on a plantation, create a kind of intergenerational dependency in which you trade your vote in exchange for a kind of meager provision, and then you're permanently enthralled to the Democratic Party.
00:36:21.000It's kind of a good racket if you can make it work.
00:36:24.000It is a good racket, especially if you have the buses and you give them free sandwiches and you take them to a voting booth where the option is Democrat or Democrat and Heroin.
00:36:31.000You know, you just put that on the ticket and they can pick.
00:36:35.000The genius of this plantation system is that it gets people to vote Democratic regardless of who is on the ticket.
00:37:15.000But we get thrown into the same barrel.
00:37:18.000And To me, the puzzle about it isn't the ethnic label.
00:37:22.000It's why Asian Americans aren't voting in ratios of 80 to 90 percent for the Republican Party.
00:37:29.000As a group, Asian Americans are meritocratic, they're entrepreneurial, they are socially to the right of Pat Robertson.
00:37:39.000And yet, for reasons unknown, they are still in the Democratic camp.
00:37:44.000I don't know how Asians are thought to be smart, but this is one area in which that Hold on, let's be careful.
00:37:49.000They're still very smart, they're just misled on that.
00:37:52.000But I always wonder, because people, oriental, we've always said this is a much more accurate term.
00:37:56.000Because a lot of people, they would not say, oh yeah, Dinesh D'Souza.
00:37:59.000If I were describing you to someone who didn't know you, yeah, he's this guy who's written a lot of books, and he's that Asian American guy.
00:38:05.000Only white feminists are even offended by it at all.
00:38:24.000Well, the poster is a little bit provocative.
00:38:26.000We morphed the heads of Trump and Lincoln.
00:38:30.000And of course, the never Trump-ers who think that Trump is a steep falling off from Reagan, I think are going to have a constipation attack here because, you know, how dare you compare Trump to Lincoln?
00:38:43.000But interestingly, the situations of the two guys are not that dissimilar.
00:40:47.000Lenin sent him a telegram congratulating him when he started the fascist party in Italy.
00:40:53.000And so the fact that Hitler and Mussolini came from the left... Well, he was well-read, but what I mean by this is he seemed kind of like a useful idiot to everyone else who was in real power.
00:41:02.000Mussolini wasn't very good at it, good at being evil in comparison.
00:42:07.000Let me ask you, what kind of pushback have you gotten from the left with this film, considering not only the cover, but the theme, you know, going in with Lincoln and President Trump and the Republican Party and the racist Democrats?
00:42:18.000Well, we've held back both on the film and on the book.
00:44:46.000You're like the Count of Monte Cristo.
00:44:47.000Most people go in, and they're in prison, and their reputation is tarnished for life, but you were just putting lines on the wall, scratching it through, you made your way out, and as Edmond Dantes, you put the other guy in the back of the caravan and sent him to prison.
00:44:59.000Then that's just the leftist critics in the media, you know?
00:45:01.000They're just gonna seethe over this forever, Dinesh.
00:45:05.000Well, I'll feel that the Count of Monte Cristo script is fully played out when Obama or Hillary occupy my now vacated bunk in the confinement center.

00:49:10.000Well, just, I've had so much fake news written about me and I'm just on like the fake news warpath right now.
00:49:15.000And then watching you go in on her made me so happy because I've also done something similar with a reporter last year after I did, I hosted this like lingerie fashion show and a man who probably has never had sex in his life decided that that was very offensive, called the girl strippers, all sorts of stuff.
00:49:32.000And I called him on it live on my Facebook.
00:50:12.000But this gentleman, I believe from CBC, comes in and writes this whole expose about the girls being escorts and strippers and the strip show.
00:50:23.000That didn't happen, and then these poor girls were being, like, fired from their jobs for being escorts, so I jumped in, went on a phone call with the dude, but livestreamed it on my Facebook, and I got him.
00:50:54.000Well, I can appreciate that because when I had a lot of even some like big, like we've talked about this with Young Turks, they actually used to go after me and address me when I had like 40,000 YouTube followers.
00:51:03.000And now they will roast every Tom Dicken here, every conservative not named Steven Crowder because once you crash Cenk Uygur's panel as Cenk Uygur, it kind of like your name is the one that shall not be spoken in their halls.
00:51:15.000Back then, there used to be fake news written and I had no ability to really combat it.
00:51:19.000You know, if the Daily Beast wrote something or if the Washington Post wrote something, you kind of just had to take it on the chin and tell your followers, but they weren't numerous back then.
00:51:27.000And that's what we thought with the Austin Chronicle.
00:51:29.000Even though I know they don't have a huge readership, it was just so inaccurate and so emblematic of all the big newspapers.
00:51:44.000Well, we're looking, it's just take, I think we're having Lee Doran, he was one of the early YouTube political channels, How the World Works, and really kind of nerdy, super smart type, and he has like a hundred I'm glad that you reached out.
00:51:57.000Now I understand why it resonated with you, and we will do more of that.
00:53:36.000I think he was talking about South African, because you have to say First Nations, so I would never refer to them as aboriginals, so you're racist, and we'll just have to scrub this in.
00:53:45.000I've been told I'm a racist many times.
00:54:00.000I just like that he has to apologize now, or that he's offended people, because he does it all the time.
00:54:05.000It's time for him to get in some shit.
00:54:07.000Well, because you also were telling me just off-air that you were meeting with the French soccer team with the World Cup, and you had a discussion about Trevor Noah.
00:54:15.000So I met the, okay, this is a fun, fun thing.
00:54:18.000So Trevor Noah was talking about the French soccer team saying that it's a win for Africa, not for France.
00:54:24.000And then saying that they're all actually from Africa.
00:54:27.000And the team was like, uh, no, two of us were born in Africa, but we're mostly from here.
00:54:33.000And France got really pissed off their ambassador.
00:54:35.000I think, or someone from the consulate wrote a letter to his show.
00:54:55.000Then I'm at the Maximal Hot 100 party like a couple days ago and some little man in a suit comes up to me and he looks magical and I'm like, I should follow him because he said follow me.
00:55:05.000When you say little man or little like actual like little person?
00:56:00.000I hate to correct you, but Oompa Loompas don't own chocolate factories.
00:56:04.000They're indentured servitudes, indentured servants to the chocolate factory.
00:56:09.000But the man who does own the chocolate factory wears very nice suits and he can pretend that he walks weird and then he does a front roll and it's fantastic.
00:56:18.000We actually had Little Person Jesus and Little Person Santa wrestle at our Christmas livestream for the Spirit of Christmas in a bowl of pudding.
00:56:37.000And it's not really descriptive when you say a little person because we've said that for a long time, not meaning people who are now called little people.
00:56:55.000That's why this, this, you know, Lenny Bruce, I'm sure you've seen the documentary, probably read about him as a comedian, but you know, don't take my words away.
00:57:02.000I'm amazed that the left is coming for words and dictating this.
00:57:05.000And do you think that this is, last we spoke with you, you were kind of middle of the road.
00:57:09.000It seems like you're, do you think you're leaning more, um, You're more and more right now, as you've been embraced.
00:57:16.000Here's, oh, I am being embraced, and it feels nice.
00:57:19.000Thank you to the people with brains, I appreciate you.
00:57:22.000Even if you dislike me because my shirt is low cut, I'll take it.
00:57:30.000So, basically, I really love what I'm hearing on your side, but I think that I'm the most useful staying a little bit more purple right now, because when you're yelling at people from either side, the other side doesn't listen to you.
00:58:38.000She was like, I'm not African, I am not African.
00:58:40.000My grandmothers, or my grandfathers' grandfathers' grandfathers, you know, she went back many generations to Jamaica, and she's like, I'm Canadian.
00:59:09.000Well, no, it is real life, because they're looking at you, and then they're bringing up a page from Hitler Youth, and they're going, thought so, nailed it.
00:59:15.000So it doesn't matter what you say at that point.
01:00:00.000And here's kind of my point, and I think this is something that lays on a lot of men right now, and obviously I say this because The Fat Shaman was kind of your rise to notoriety.
01:00:17.000But the point is, These women aren't perfect, like you said, but men find them attractive.
01:00:21.000All the women that I know who are generally within the boundaries of health, most men would find attractive.
01:00:27.000We don't expect, and I think where men get really upset about this, and I would wonder where you feel as a woman who's been lambast, raked over the coals for talking on the same issue, men don't expect women to look one way.
01:02:32.000You mentioned something about the Maxim party.
01:02:35.000Are there a lot of gold diggers there?
01:02:36.000I would imagine it's very uncomfortable.
01:02:39.000There were a lot of gold diggers there and so many girls were so upset by them, but I'm not offended by gold diggers because they're gonna have ugly kids.
01:02:47.000Like, it's not hot guys that have to buy women.
01:06:35.000I think we just talked about this with Nicole, and he is confirmed, I believe, for next week on Washington Post, their fact-checking.
01:06:40.000So we're just going to do an entire episode on that, just to show you how far, just to show you how deep the roots are of dishonesty in the media.
01:06:48.000And that's not to absolve anyone on the right when they are dishonest.
01:06:50.000The fake news that we talked about on Facebook, of course that happens, and I hate it when the right does it.
01:06:53.000But it has been a long-standing history of the left.
01:08:01.000Let me kind of tell you something here.
01:08:03.000We usually get into this last segment.
01:08:04.000I think Nakajiro was the one who said that we should name this segment something, because sometimes people are like, ah, I wish you'd upload this.
01:08:10.000We should just have a name for it, like Uncle Kraut or something.
01:08:12.000Well, I've been talking about with Courtney, maybe writing, because we're working on the Change My Mind book, and we're trying to make it very economical, maybe doing a pamphlet version for people who are in college, just the really basic arguments, and then maybe doing a longer hardcover for people who want to buy it as a gift.
01:08:25.000But there's another book that I've been thinking about for a while, the self-help book you'll hate.
01:08:29.000And a couple things I've talked about really very consistently.
01:08:32.000There aren't a lot of key details you need to know in life to avoid the major pitfalls.
01:08:37.000As far as being successful and having interviewed the most successful people in any of their milieus, whether it's Daniel Cormier, whether it's Brian Shaw, whether it's people like Thomas Sowell, something consistent, you have to believe in yourself, realistic belief in yourself, and consistency and discipline.
01:10:11.000How many people do we know who read the books, they put up the affirmations, they have their prayer groups, they do all the things that they're supposed to do, but they just never, ever get their crap together?
01:10:45.000She was very mean, actually, as a kid.
01:10:47.000The last person I wanted to stay was with my Aunt Nicole.
01:10:49.000I didn't know this growing up, but she had a very abusive childhood.
01:10:52.000Not from my grandparents, but they couldn't afford to raise her during the Great Depression, so she had to go live with another family for a period of time.
01:10:58.000Well, they got on their feet, and they were horrible to her, so it makes sense now, but when I was growing up, my Aunt Nicole scared me.
01:11:03.000I thought she was very, very mean-spirited, and I didn't like her.
01:11:59.000Almost all lies, pretty much all of them, span from cowardice.
01:12:03.000And the two things most corrosive to the human soul, while we talk about the things that lend themselves to success, are ironically success.
01:12:51.000The difference really clocks in between telling a lie to avoid someone else's discomfort, like when someone asks if they look fat, versus telling a lie to avoid discomfort yourself, often knowing that that burden, that hurt, gets passed on to someone else.
01:15:36.000And that's what we use when we often call people out.
01:15:39.000And that stems from lies with cowardice.
01:15:40.000And there's a real practical reason why decent people are revolted by that kind of cowardice.
01:15:44.000And this is the one thing, again, with success, handling success, that's a whole other deal.
01:15:48.000We've watched people deal with success both really well and really poorly.
01:15:52.000People who've been on this show, some of them, It can hurt everyone around you.
01:15:56.000But, I'll give you a practical reason.
01:15:57.000In combat sports, okay, the first thing they teach you, one of the first thing they train, is how to channel the flinch reflex, right?
01:16:03.000They teach you in boxing, for example, not to look away.
01:16:05.000So sure, you learn your footwork, you learn your head movement, you learn how to avoid taking a hit on the button, but you also learn that this is a fight, and every now and then, one shot is going to slip through.
01:16:14.000None of us are getting out of this life alive, and no one is getting out unscathed.
01:16:18.000At least a few shots are coming through, and when they do, you cannot, ah!
01:16:28.000Because the coward, the person who lies to themselves, the person who lies to others out of cowardice, thinks they're avoiding the discomfort.
01:16:34.000But you're just setting yourself up for the next shot.
01:16:36.000And that's what happens to people who live their entire life that way.
01:16:39.000When truth is coming down the pike, you turtle up to avoid the discomfort, and then guess what?
01:16:56.000You never see what's coming down the pipe.
01:16:58.000You're afraid to deal with the discomfort, and you set yourself up for a world of hurt, and it sucks your soul out of your body.
01:17:04.000And I've seen people who are on the twilight years of their life, who have lived their entire life that way, and you just get march-stepped into the corner and taken out.
01:17:59.000People who are afraid, they're psychopaths.
