Louder with Crowder - #67 Crapping on Islam. Brad Thor, Sgt. Kathryn and Gerald Morgan | Louder With Crowder

00:00:00.000 you You found yourself at the junction where worlds meet Politics.

00:00:15.000 Civility?

00:00:16.000 How about honesty in this country, folks?

00:00:18.000 Entertainment.

00:00:19.000 I don't like entertainment!

00:00:21.000 And a whole bunch of other stuff.

00:00:23.000 It's about having a healthy body image.

00:00:26.000 If you have a very unhealthy body, you should have a horrible body image.

00:00:28.000 It's not a big home improvement market in Detroit.

00:00:31.000 We are definitely going to get letters.

00:00:33.000 You're listening to Talk Radio's Strangest Animal. 0.97

00:00:37.000 You're a strange animal. 0.95

00:00:39.000 That's what I know. 0.99

00:00:41.000 You're getting louder with Crowder. 0.99

00:00:44.000 But you're a strange animal.

00:00:47.000 I get to follow. 0.59

00:00:49.000 Oh, I'm in the speedy to see.

00:00:53.000 Oh, you know that sound?

00:00:55.000 That is the sound right now.

00:00:58.000 Of the weekend, I am your host, Stephen Crowder.

00:01:01.000 You can, of course, follow everything I do at lighterwithcrowder.com.

00:01:04.000 Producing with me in studio video livestream, as always, is Jared, who is not gay. 0.70

00:01:09.000 You can follow him on Twitter at NotGayJarred.

00:01:12.000 I've fulfilled my legal obligations.

00:01:13.000 Draw your own conclusions.

00:01:14.000 We're good.

00:01:14.000 We good?

00:01:16.000 We're good.

00:01:17.000 We are good.

00:01:18.000 the band.

00:01:19.000 We're good.

00:01:20.000 Big week.

00:01:22.000 Big week this week.

00:01:23.000 A lot of crazy stuff going on.

00:01:24.000 And we'll get to all of that.

00:01:26.000 So we do have, of course, best-selling author Brad Thor will be on, our good friend Gerald Morgan, who teaches on Islam, and you can guess why we'll have him this week.

00:01:36.000 On theology, on philosophy.

00:01:38.000 He's also a rocket scientist neurosurgeon.

00:01:40.000 The guy's relatively accomplished.

00:01:42.000 Well, he's really, I mean, he's really good on Islam stuff especially.

00:01:45.000 He follows, you know, all the charities that go on and kind of just the good things going on in the community, which is...

00:01:51.000 On Islam?

00:01:51.000 On Islam.

00:01:52.000 It's a great thing to keep up with, so...

00:01:53.000 It doesn't take a lot of spare time.

00:01:56.000 No.

00:01:57.000 If you really want to stay up to date on Islamic charities... 0.99

00:02:00.000 It's a gift that keeps all good.

00:02:02.000 You just did it.

00:02:04.000 There's none.

00:02:06.000 Islamic charities for anyone who's not Muslim, it doesn't exist.

00:02:09.000 There's no, like, Islamic children's fund.

00:02:12.000 It's not Christian children's fund anymore.

00:02:14.000 I see that Santa Claus guy with a beard.

00:02:15.000 It's something else.

00:02:16.000 Remember all those commercials?

00:02:17.000 Yeah, with him walking down the sad street.

00:02:19.000 Yeah, for just the price of a cup of coffee a day.

00:02:22.000 Coffee's gone up, so the commercial's kind of...

00:02:25.000 I feel like a bad person.

00:02:26.000 When I watch it, I'm thinking I'm paying way too much for coffee.

00:02:29.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:02:29.000 That's the big takeaway.

00:02:31.000 So we'll have Brett Doerr, we'll have Joe Morgan, we have Catherine, Sergeant Catherine coming on, because another story not a lot of people talked about got lost in the shuffle.

00:02:39.000 The Marines are now requiring mandatory sensitivity training.

00:02:43.000 Specifically gender sensitivity training.

00:02:44.000 So we have a former sergeant from the military coming in, and she has some strong opinions on that.

00:02:51.000 So this week we had Obama going to Cuba.

00:02:52.000 That happened.

00:02:53.000 It seems like years ago, because Brussels happened.

00:02:57.000 Of course, our thoughts and prayers are out with everyone there.

00:03:00.000 And then, of course, there's the debacle with Donald Trump and Ted Cruz's wife going on right now, this whole election thing.

00:03:07.000 We'll get to that further on down the trail.

00:03:09.000 I mean, there are no winners in this.

00:03:13.000 No, it's just one long reality show.

00:03:16.000 It just never ends.

00:03:17.000 It is just absolutely...

00:03:18.000 You just keep renewing the seasons.

00:03:19.000 Yeah.

00:03:20.000 And you're like, ah!

00:03:21.000 I didn't know I had another one in it, but...

00:03:23.000 And the general's just going to be a spinoff.

00:03:25.000 Oh, gosh, I know.

00:03:25.000 It's going to be the I am Kate to the Republican primary Kardashians.

00:03:30.000 And at the end of it, you're just going to want to, I mean, cork your forks like in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels because you will be tempted to just jam them repeatedly into your eyes.

00:03:41.000 So Obama-Cuba was a big trip.

00:03:43.000 A lot of people maybe forgot about that.

00:03:45.000 That happened earlier this week.

00:03:47.000 Barack Obama, our president, visited Cuba.

00:03:49.000 So everyone praised this as progress for relations, which have been, I guess, cold for a long time.

00:03:56.000 Little known fact, a lot of people think I'm Canadian.

00:03:59.000 I was born in Detroit but raised in Montreal, so I have both an American passport and a Canadian passport.

00:04:04.000 Dual citizen.

00:04:05.000 And I've been to Cuba.

00:04:07.000 I've been to both Guantanamo Bay and I've been to Havana.

00:04:10.000 Havana is not what they showed you in Miami Vice. 1.00

00:04:13.000 It is a crap hole. 1.00

00:04:14.000 It is a horrible place. 1.00

00:04:16.000 Never has there been a place blessed with such incredible natural beauty makes so little of it as Cuba.

00:04:24.000 That's what I can say about that.

00:04:25.000 We went to Havana.

00:04:26.000 We went down to, gosh, I don't remember the names of the beaches, but I got horribly sick.

00:04:31.000 That's never something, you know, no one goes to Belgium.

00:04:33.000 No one goes to France.

00:04:34.000 No one goes to the United States, you know, and expects to get horribly sick.

00:04:37.000 You go to Mexico, it's expected, right? 1.00

00:04:40.000 You're going to try and avoid it, but it's just reality.

00:04:43.000 It's going to happen at some point.

00:04:45.000 You are going to have serious problems in one of your Orifis.

00:04:49.000 Same thing with Cuba.

00:04:50.000 They just hand you a bottle of Imodium when they stamp your passport going in.

00:04:53.000 I thought that was unusual.

00:04:55.000 The one hand is Imodium and the other is taking your wallet.

00:05:00.000 So Obama went to Cuba.

00:05:01.000 Now here's one thing.

00:05:02.000 This is something we'll talk about today, an overarching theme, and we've talked about this on the website.

00:05:06.000 The left loves to build up victims, right?

00:05:09.000 They love to praise people and say, oh, don't you want to help these people?

00:05:12.000 Look at these poor downtrodden people.

00:05:13.000 And what they always do is ignore the real victims who simply aren't painted as victims because they're successful.

00:05:21.000 So we've talked about this.

00:05:22.000 We've had my mother on the show.

00:05:23.000 My mom is a legal immigrant. 0.73

00:05:25.000 She came to the United States.

00:05:26.000 She didn't speak a word of English when she met my dad.

00:05:28.000 She learned it.

00:05:29.000 She works here.

00:05:30.000 She pays taxes.

00:05:31.000 You will not find somebody who is a stronger advocate for strict immigration laws and enforcing the ones we have.

00:05:39.000 She can't stand.

00:05:40.000 She can't stand when people can't speak English.

00:05:43.000 You know, I learn it, and I come here, I learn English, it's not my language.

00:05:47.000 I talk it, people, they come, they speak.

00:05:48.000 Hey, do you speak Spanish?

00:05:50.000 No, I don't speak Spanish!

00:05:52.000 I learn English, why can't you?

00:05:53.000 And she gets so mad.

00:05:55.000 That's pretty typical of immigrants, legal immigrants.

00:05:57.000 So, in trying to pander and create a new victim class with illegal immigrants, you know, they get mad about Trump pointing it out and the wall, or Ted Cruz. 0.90

00:06:07.000 Both of them have been talking about illegal immigration, by the way, not just Donald Trump.

00:06:10.000 But I support both people whenever they talk about it, provided they, you know, present feasible solutions.

00:06:18.000 In trying to build up the class of illegal immigrants... 0.95

00:06:21.000 They throw legal immigrants under the bus. 1.00

00:06:23.000 Well, we feel bad.

00:06:24.000 These people just want to come here for a better life.

00:06:26.000 And then we're told that we're racist because we're saying, no, no, no, no, no.

00:06:29.000 Come through legally as someone like my mother did.

00:06:32.000 Well, why is the Mexican, who has a geographical advantage, somehow granted more leeway or supposed to be given more slack... 0.56

00:06:42.000 Over someone like my mom or someone like many parents out here.

00:06:44.000 You can tweet me at S. Crowder if you come from a family of immigrants who came here legally. 0.96

00:06:48.000 One is deemed a victim solely because they suck at being successful. 0.96

00:06:53.000 That's why.

00:06:55.000 If they run a business, if they come here, they become legal.

00:06:57.000 Well, they're not a victim anymore.

00:06:58.000 Now you just take their stuff, right?

00:07:00.000 Because they're not the people.

00:07:01.000 We've talked about that.

00:07:02.000 Same thing with Cuba.

00:07:03.000 Oh, Barack Obama wants to go.

00:07:04.000 These government, you know, this country, they've been, there's an embargo.

00:07:08.000 They need us.

00:07:09.000 Look, we can't be the bad guy.

00:07:11.000 And so he wants to go in and talk with Castro.

00:07:14.000 And he poses in front of a poster of Che Guevara.

00:07:18.000 Victims.

00:07:19.000 Castros.

00:07:20.000 Victims.

00:07:21.000 The government of Cuba.

00:07:22.000 The United States, we've been really mean to them.

00:07:25.000 Well, what they don't show you are the people in the gulags who've spoken out against communist government who are having pokers jammed into guests.

00:07:33.000 What they don't show are the people whose parents were actually jailed or had their instruments taken away because Che Guevara decided that rock music was no longer allowable under a government. 0.99

00:07:45.000 By the way, Che Guevara, we talk about this, a lot of people wear this stupid little t-shirt, you know, Che Guevara, him, you know, who's about 120 pounds soaking wet in his stupid fringy pubic hair beard that a man should be ashamed of. 0.99

00:07:57.000 Listen... 1.00

00:07:58.000 I'm not a guy who grows...

00:07:59.000 I swear, I don't grow a full beard.

00:08:00.000 I don't go a full Duck Dynasty.

00:08:01.000 I recognize my limitations.

00:08:02.000 Che Guevara.

00:08:03.000 That should be the first sign of a guy who has poor judgment.

00:08:06.000 He looked in, he saw the little Taco Bell dog chihuahua fringy pubic hair mustache and beard that makes his face look like your nether regions and said, yeah, this is a good decision.

00:08:17.000 People who wear that shirt, the Che Guevara shirt, they don't understand that they might as well be wearing a shirt of Hitler.

00:08:21.000 This is a guy who was a revolutionary, motorcycle diaries. 0.98

00:08:25.000 No, you dummy. 0.94

00:08:26.000 He was a communist executioner. 1.00

00:08:29.000 This guy killed people. 0.80

00:08:32.000 And not only because they were dissenters, and he stood before the UN and said, kill without trial? 0.85

00:08:35.000 Of course, we'll continue to kill without trial. 0.81

00:08:37.000 Leftists, of course, support this man. 0.92

00:08:39.000 He was Castro's executioner. 0.99

00:08:41.000 He hated black people. 1.00

00:08:42.000 He said the Negroes were lazy. 1.00

00:08:44.000 He wanted people to be pure-blood European Spanish. 0.97

00:08:46.000 And he broke down the wall to his office just because he personally enjoyed watching the firing squad at work.

00:08:53.000 Go to ladowithcrowder.com.

00:08:55.000 Go Google this. 1.00

00:08:56.000 Che Guevara was an ass, okay? 1.00

00:08:58.000 There was nothing good about him. 1.00

00:08:59.000 He was Hitler without the charm. 0.95

00:09:01.000 By the way, he was found in, gosh, Bolivia?

00:09:05.000 I'm pretty sure it's Bolivia.

00:09:07.000 Didn't fire a bullet.

00:09:08.000 Che Guevara never fought an armed populace for revolutionary. 0.73

00:09:12.000 It's really easy to be a war revolutionary when you're just stealing people's stuff and walking in with a gun and shooting them. 0.73

00:09:19.000 If I walk in right now and not gay Jared's producing and I blow them away, it doesn't make me a great gunfighter. 1.00

00:09:25.000 It would also just be an average Tuesday. 0.53

00:09:26.000 It would be an average Tuesday.

00:09:28.000 Little known fact, Jared regenerates tissue very quickly.

00:09:30.000 So, Barack Obama, taken, there's a picture taken of him in front of Che Guevara, standing there with his head held high.

00:09:37.000 Now, I get it.

00:09:38.000 There can be an accident, right?

00:09:39.000 You could probably take a picture of any president at some point who's waving, and behind them, maybe there's someone in a Che Guevara t-shirt, or maybe if they're in a country, you know, where you find some communist symbolism.

00:09:48.000 I get that.

00:09:49.000 He was standing there in front of a mural.

00:09:51.000 Posing.

00:09:52.000 Sitting there.

00:09:53.000 Knew the picture was taken.

00:09:54.000 And not only is it Barack Obama, there's no one in his inner circle of friends saying, Ooh, gosh, you have a communist executioner behind you.

00:10:01.000 Maybe you should...

00:10:01.000 Let's take a few steps to the left.

00:10:04.000 Get someone from the Sears catalog who shows you how to pose and just have him step you over.

00:10:08.000 But these people believe in this.

00:10:10.000 Barack Obama doesn't think Che Guevara is offensive because he's just like every douchebag you knew in college who smoked mead with his professors and talked about communism's beautiful in theory, man.

00:10:19.000 So we're there with Che Guevara. 0.90

00:10:20.000 Yeah, okay, we want to feel bad.

00:10:22.000 Cuba deserves to do better.

00:10:24.000 Absolutely.

00:10:24.000 But you think you're going to do that by going in and watching a baseball game with a government who, by all evidence we have, still probably kills people for speaking out against them.

00:10:34.000 At the very least, jails them and takes their family away.

00:10:36.000 Let me give you a story from Cuba.

00:10:37.000 This is a true story.

00:10:38.000 I went down there with my mom.

00:10:39.000 Shooting a commercial when I was a kid.

00:10:41.000 It was like one of these things, end of year, and this production company had budget.

00:10:44.000 So they said, ah, well, let's go to Cuba to shoot this. 1.00

00:10:46.000 It was stupid. 1.00

00:10:47.000 It was a McCain pizza commercial. 1.00

00:10:48.000 Rising Crust Pizza.

00:10:49.000 Could have been shot anywhere.

00:10:50.000 Anyway, we go down there, and we are staying at a hotel.

00:10:53.000 And my mom, God bless her, didn't realize what a communist government is really like. 0.98

00:10:59.000 So she writes a tip.

00:11:01.000 She's been writing a tip on the check at the hotel.

00:11:04.000 Until someone told her, you realize they don't get those tips.

00:11:07.000 I said, what?

00:11:08.000 I said, they don't get those tips.

00:11:09.000 They don't give them those tips.

00:11:10.000 No one's allowed to get tips.

00:11:11.000 So my mom goes, oh, oh, I'm so sorry.

00:11:13.000 She goes, hey, if I put that there, do you get that?

00:11:15.000 And the woman said, no.

00:11:16.000 She said, oh, okay, can you scratch that here?

00:11:18.000 I'll give you cash she's like no no no no no no no no no you would have thought that she was about to get shot Because she knew, and she told him, if anyone found out that she told him she doesn't get the tips, or that she's getting tips and cash, There's going to be some serious... 0.95

00:11:33.000 This woman was terrified.

00:11:35.000 Pleading with my mom, who was trying to give her a tip.

00:11:37.000 This is a few years ago.

00:11:39.000 So if you want to talk about the victims, it's not the Castros. 0.52

00:11:42.000 It's not the Che Guevara social justice warriors.

00:11:44.000 It's the people of Cuba who are still getting screwed, regardless of Obama's PR tour.

00:11:49.000 Ladder with Crowder. 0.89

00:11:49.000 We'll be back. 0.89

00:11:51.000 Everybody was kung fu fighting. 0.99

00:11:55.000 Those kids were fastest lightning.

00:11:58.000 In fact, it was a little bit frightening.

00:12:03.000 But they fought with expert timing.

00:12:22.000 This is breaking news of the Lawler with Crawler.

00:12:26.000 I'm Perry Matheson.

00:12:28.000 We now take you live to the historic meeting of President Barack Obama and Raul Castro in Cuba.

00:12:38.000 Barack, I am so glad to see you.

00:12:40.000 It's been too long.

00:12:42.000 Welcome to Cuba and this opening of communication for this great historic moment.

00:12:47.000 Thank you.

00:12:48.000 I'm glad to be here.

00:12:49.000 So what do you want to see first?

00:12:51.000 Cigars, the women, the gulags, Havana, your choice. 0.91

00:12:55.000 Now, did you just say gulags? 1.00

00:12:57.000 Don't be silly. 0.99

00:12:59.000 Here's a cigar. 0.99

00:13:00.000 Very good.

00:13:01.000 Sound like you just said gulags.

00:13:03.000 You will not speak out.

00:13:06.000 Now, what's going on back there? 1.00

00:13:07.000 Don't be silly! 0.99

00:13:08.000 No! 1.00

00:13:09.000 It is not what you think.

00:13:11.000 We're making a lot of progress.

00:13:13.000 What's going on back there?

00:13:14.000 It's nothing!

00:13:15.000 I am going to take you to my face.

00:13:15.000 Come, come!

00:13:17.000 You will never believe the size of these shrimps, okay?

00:13:21.000 We'll keep you updated as this historic event unfolds.

00:13:25.000 On Waller with Crowler, I'm Perry Mathelton.

00:13:28.000 On Waller with Crowler, I'm Perry Mathelton.

00:13:49.000 And Twitter is blowing up tonight.

00:13:50.000 This is bizarre.

00:13:52.000 It's bizarre for Twitter to be blowing up.

00:13:54.000 Who knows what's going on?

00:13:56.000 It's been a busy week.

00:13:58.000 It's been a busy week.

00:13:59.000 I'm wondering if we should talk about...

00:14:01.000 Yeah, let's talk about Trump and Cruz later.

00:14:02.000 And we have to address it because it's in the news, but...

00:14:06.000 I don't feel like talking about it.

00:14:07.000 I'll be looking forward to getting Brad Thorne next.

00:14:09.000 So, Brussels happened this week, and we will have Gerald Morgan on to talk about it.

00:14:15.000 Did you see all the tweets about Turkey and people who were all mad about it?

00:14:19.000 Did you see all that?

00:14:19.000 I'm actually a little out of loop on that one.

00:14:22.000 So, Casey wrote about this at the site.

00:14:24.000 We both kind of wrote about it, but it's really her baby.

00:14:26.000 Turkey, when this happened in Brussels, they were complaining, saying...

00:14:29.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:14:30.000 I saw that.

00:14:31.000 Because there have been terrorist attacks in Turkey.

00:14:33.000 And right away, whenever this...

00:14:34.000 In Paris or Brussels...

00:14:37.000 What happened after Paris?

00:14:38.000 There was another attack.

00:14:39.000 Was it Turkey?

00:14:41.000 No, it was something in Africa.

00:14:42.000 I can't remember, I think, where.

00:14:45.000 Or was it Turkey?

00:14:45.000 It was somewhere else in the Islamic world that there was another terrorist attack.

00:14:49.000 Yeah.

00:14:50.000 Anyway, the point being, right after Brussels, and we have the tweets up there, they're complaining, oh, really disappointed that the world is way more offended at the Brussels attack than Turkey.

00:14:59.000 All right.

00:15:00.000 This is politically incorrect, but let me clue you in as to why people are more offended, why it's, I guess, more alarming when this happens in Brussels than Turkey.

00:15:09.000 It's because you're Muslim. 1.00

00:15:14.000 No, there's no more explanation. 0.88

00:15:15.000 It's because you're Muslim. 1.00

00:15:16.000 It's because 98% of Turkish people identify as Muslim.

00:15:20.000 Now, in the free world, in the westernized world, I say free because Europe, you know, we're kind of, we're using it technically.

00:15:26.000 It's abnormal.

00:15:28.000 In places where 6% Muslim, 8% Muslim, it's abnormal what happened in Belgium. 1.00

00:15:33.000 They don't accept that.

00:15:34.000 They don't tolerate that.

00:15:35.000 They want human rights.

00:15:36.000 They've fought for human rights.

00:15:39.000 It's the rule rather than the exception in the Islamic world. 0.97

00:15:42.000 It's not news.

00:15:44.000 Now, the reason we don't mourn it every time it happens in Turkey, whether it's Iran, Saudi, anywhere, is because we have desk jobs.

00:15:52.000 We don't have the time in the day.

00:15:54.000 It happens all the time.

00:15:56.000 This year alone in Turkey, I think there's been five or six bombings.

00:15:58.000 It happens all the time.

00:16:01.000 Does it mean that life is any less valuable?

00:16:03.000 No.

00:16:05.000 What it means is that it's not surprising.

00:16:07.000 And rather than getting mad at Americans or Europeans for not being as outraged, maybe you should get a little, maybe direct that anger toward the ideology that breeds the rampant, constant, non-stop terrorism throughout the entire Islamic world that has desensitized us to begin with. 0.94

00:16:26.000 Sorry!

00:16:27.000 We don't feel as bad about it because you're a country that is largely Muslim. 1.00

00:16:32.000 Because you're a country, a lot of these countries, you're countries that support Sharia law, or you're countries that treat women as second-class citizens, or you're countries that throw people off rooftops for speaking with a lisp.

00:16:42.000 We don't feel as bad about the terrorism because you're an Islamic country. 1.00

00:16:46.000 The things that we have fought for in government, regardless of terrorism, now I'm not talking about just terrorism, the things that, I don't know, Belgium, France, certainly the United States has fought for in a government, you've constantly resisted.

00:16:57.000 Freedom of speech.

00:16:58.000 People being allowed to convert trade between religions freely.

00:17:00.000 Freedom of sexuality.

00:17:02.000 To do whatever you want.

00:17:03.000 You fought against that.

00:17:06.000 And that breeds the atmosphere where there are constant bombings.

00:17:10.000 You guys have bombings more often than my dad checks his Fitbit.

00:17:15.000 So yeah, we don't feel as bad.

00:17:17.000 Oh yeah, I guess it happened in Turkey.

00:17:18.000 But in Belgium it's a big deal.

00:17:20.000 It's also a big deal because Belgium, France... 0.58

00:17:24.000 They tried to be tolerant and liberal, and they let you in, and they kind of screwed the pooch. 0.95

00:17:29.000 You're seeing this with Germany. 0.71

00:17:30.000 We talked about this.

00:17:31.000 If you look at Germany, the elections, the far right-wing nationalists that are coming up now, well, for Germany.

00:17:35.000 I mean, the nationalism is disconcerting.

00:17:37.000 I understand it.

00:17:38.000 The pendulum swings the other way.

00:17:40.000 With Belgium. 0.83

00:17:42.000 When people say the United States causes this, they talk about this a lot, right?

00:17:45.000 Well, if the United States didn't destabilize the Middle East.

00:17:47.000 Okay.

00:17:47.000 So it's the United States.

00:17:48.000 Yeah, yeah, Islam is mad at the Western world. 1.00

00:17:50.000 It's you guys. 0.96

00:17:51.000 Okay.

00:17:52.000 Canada?

00:17:52.000 Belgium?

00:17:53.000 France?

00:17:54.000 Denmark?

00:17:55.000 Greece?

00:17:56.000 Pick it.

00:17:56.000 Spain?

00:17:57.000 So anyone in the free...

00:17:57.000 Pick it.

00:17:58.000 Germany?

00:17:59.000 Sweden? 0.82

00:18:00.000 Did they earn their rape capital of the West through their interventionism in Iraq? 0.99

00:18:07.000 I hope people understand this.

00:18:08.000 I think it's finally being deconstructed a little bit, this myth that the United States brings terrorism on themselves because of them being interventionists abroad.

00:18:17.000 Now listen, generally speaking, I'm more non-interventionist.

00:18:20.000 That's what I liked about Rand Paul.

00:18:22.000 To a degree, it depends.

00:18:23.000 I believe in a strong national security, but I believe the first question to ourselves if we go into a country is, is it in the United States' best interest as far as security?

00:18:32.000 Not nation-building.

00:18:33.000 Is it in the best interest of the United States?

00:18:37.000 But Belgium, what do you think they say to these people who blew them up?

00:18:37.000 That's what I think.

00:18:41.000 Well, we were liberal!

00:18:43.000 We let you in!

00:18:44.000 We tolerated you! 0.53

00:18:47.000 Ow! 1.00

00:18:48.000 Ow! 1.00

00:18:48.000 We're feeding you! 1.00

00:18:49.000 Ow! 1.00

00:18:49.000 What do you think? 1.00

00:18:52.000 What did you think would happen?

00:18:53.000 Did you think if you were nice enough to them that this wouldn't happen?

00:18:56.000 And by the way, I'm not talking about the Belgian people.

00:18:59.000 They've turned on this.

00:19:00.000 It's the Belgian government, right?

00:19:01.000 It's Germany. 0.53

00:19:02.000 They're letting these people in against the will of the people.

00:19:04.000 They're letting these migrants in against... 1.00

00:19:06.000 And people are tired of it.

00:19:07.000 People are tired of it.

00:19:09.000 People have opened their eyes, and what once was only whispered about Islam, everyone now goes, yeah, you know, it's a real problem. 1.00

00:19:15.000 Yeah, it's a real problem.

00:19:16.000 I just don't think they can be brought into the modern world.

00:19:18.000 That used to be hate speech.

00:19:19.000 Now it's simply a statistically observable fact.

00:19:23.000 And Belgium is...

00:19:24.000 I think you're going to see a lot more of this.

00:19:26.000 Unless you start cracking down on it.

00:19:28.000 Sorry, Europe.

00:19:29.000 Europe mocked us for all...

00:19:30.000 Right?

00:19:31.000 Remember after...

00:19:31.000 Europe mocked us.

00:19:33.000 They're arrogant. 0.97

00:19:33.000 Oh, Samaria. 0.97

00:19:35.000 They're bringing this on themselves.

00:19:37.000 Well, did you guys?

00:19:38.000 Because...

00:19:38.000 Here it is.

00:19:41.000 I don't know.

00:19:42.000 You've gotten that.

00:19:43.000 I mean, you've got that probably all the time from your friends, right?

00:19:45.000 Well, if the United States didn't do A, the terrorists wouldn't do XYZ. It just doesn't work that way.

00:19:52.000 I don't know where that all started, that the world works that way with the Islam world, and it just doesn't. 1.00

00:20:00.000 I mean, look, historically, it's always been that way.

00:20:02.000 Right.

00:20:04.000 The left wants to...

00:20:06.000 Because their sell, right?

00:20:07.000 The sell from Barack Obama, the sell from Bernie Sanders, is they point to things that are just reality, right?

00:20:14.000 Healthcare should never be so expensive.

00:20:18.000 Never?

00:20:18.000 Maybe sometimes it should be expensive.

00:20:21.000 College should always be affordable.

00:20:23.000 Always?

00:20:24.000 Maybe sometimes it shouldn't be affordable to everybody.

00:20:26.000 They want to sell you that they can control everything.

00:20:30.000 And so that flies in the face of the idea that there's evil in this world. 0.69

00:20:33.000 Let me give you an idea as far as child marriage and rape. 0.97

00:20:37.000 It's a rampant problem in the Islamic world, namely because Muhammad himself raped a heck out of a six-year-old girl, Aisha, his favorite wife, but he maybe only raped her when she was nine. 0.99

00:20:44.000 You look at a girl. 0.98

00:20:45.000 We were at a place, Rusty Taco, and we were looking at this girl.

00:20:48.000 She came out of this ballet class, a girl with her slippers, and she just wanted everyone to see her.

00:20:48.000 She was so cute.

00:20:52.000 And we all thought, oh my gosh, this girl is so cute. 1.00

00:20:54.000 Just every one of us was talking about how adorable she is.

00:20:56.000 We looked at her.

00:20:57.000 Any guy in there, any dad would have done anything in the world for her.

00:21:00.000 Someone else looks at that child and thinks, how can I exploit her?

00:21:02.000 How can I harm her?

00:21:03.000 That's their first thought.

00:21:06.000 Some people are evil.

00:21:08.000 Understand that.

00:21:09.000 And understand you can't reason with evil.

00:21:11.000 Reason with the people you can.

00:21:13.000 And don't waste your time on those who can't.

00:21:15.000 Speaking of reasonable, Brad Thor, after this.

00:21:17.000 Stay tuned.

00:21:17.000 This is John Kasich's Ask Me Anything, and I approve this message.

00:21:47.000 Glad for everyone to be here.

00:21:49.000 We're really trying to run a positive campaign, and I'm glad to see members of the press coming together as opposed to being just divisive.

00:21:57.000 So, uh, you, yes, for the first question.

00:22:00.000 Yes, thank you, Mr.

00:22:01.000 Kasich.

00:22:01.000 Uh, first question.

00:22:03.000 Why are you such a piece of s***? 0.99

00:22:04.000 Now, now that's, you really think that's necessary? 0.99

00:22:08.000 It is a valid question.

00:22:10.000 Well, I don't think it is.

00:22:15.000 I think it is.

00:22:16.000 Well, I don't.

00:22:20.000 But I do.

00:22:21.000 Well, I mean, I really don't think I am.

00:22:26.000 Stay tuned for more of John Kasich's Ask Me Anything.

00:22:30.000 I'm John Kasich, and I approve this message.

00:22:34.000 I'ma do the things that I wanna do.

00:22:42.000 I ain't got a thing to prove to you.

00:22:46.000 I ain't gonna win the cause that you'll run.

00:22:50.000 I don't give a hoot about what you think.

00:22:54.000 All right, I'm glad to come back with this next guest.

00:22:58.000 He's just had horrible luck on Louder with Crowder.

00:23:01.000 Not Gay Jared is the single most unprofessional producer in all of radio, and I'm just stuck right now because, for reasons I can't disclose... 0.97

00:23:09.000 You love me.

00:23:11.000 This gentleman was on before.

00:23:11.000 It's out.

00:23:14.000 People were saying, where's the video online?

00:23:15.000 We didn't have the video.

00:23:17.000 And then Not Gay Jared kept him waiting for an inordinately long amount of time.

00:23:20.000 His latest book, he sells them like hotcakes.

00:23:23.000 Best-selling author, I don't know how many times.

00:23:26.000 Foreign Agent is the book, BradThor.com.

00:23:29.000 That's B as in Bradley, T as in Thor's hammer.

00:23:33.000 BradThor, just go BradThor.com.

00:23:34.000 BradThor, thank you, sir.

00:23:36.000 You're welcome.

00:23:37.000 Good to be with you.

00:23:38.000 Yes, well...

00:23:39.000 I'd like Jared's home address, okay?

00:23:43.000 Just slide that to text it to me after the show.

00:23:45.000 You and every sprite in San Francisco.

00:23:47.000 I don't blame you.

00:23:49.000 Or should I say bears?

00:23:50.000 I don't know.

00:23:51.000 I think the bears are the ones who like them.

00:23:53.000 Okay, so listen.

00:23:54.000 I mean, you and I have been following each other for a while, and I follow you on Twitter every now and then.

00:23:57.000 That's kind of how I stay.

00:23:57.000 I look, peer into the window of people's lives, which is funny because it's not real life.

00:24:01.000 But you have been...

00:24:03.000 They've been laying into you Not only, obviously, Trump fans and people who, I don't know, they don't like you, but now we have this Brussels this week.

00:24:12.000 So you've written a lot about sort of your novels centered around, I guess, sort of national security issues.

00:24:19.000 Do you think we're going to wake up here?

00:24:20.000 Do you think people are going to wake up?

00:24:21.000 Do you think this is going to be the straw that breaks the camel's back?

00:24:24.000 Europe is falling.

00:24:25.000 We're seeing this sort of actually scary right-wing nationalism in Germany.

00:24:29.000 Or do you think it's just another day at the office?

00:24:32.000 It's a great question.

00:24:34.000 Europe should function as the canary in the coal mine.

00:24:37.000 And for your listeners who don't know me and haven't read my books, I write thrillers.

00:24:42.000 So my job is entertainment.

00:24:44.000 Toes in the sand, book in the hand kind of a thing.

00:24:47.000 Think Clancy or Ludlum.

00:24:49.000 That's the style of stuff that I do.

00:24:51.000 And I look to Europe a lot because there's so much happening over there.

00:24:55.000 But we don't seem to learn any lessons in this country.

00:24:58.000 Whether it's the entitlement state and the failures therein, whether it's terrorism, whether it's the immigration issues they're having over there, it is a big wake-up call.

00:25:08.000 It should be.

00:25:09.000 In fact, San Bernardino should have been, back in December, an even bigger wake-up call for this country.

00:25:15.000 Well, you know, San Bernardino, according to Barack Obama, is still gun violence.

00:25:20.000 Right, exactly.

00:25:21.000 Just like Fort Hood was workplace violence for years.

00:25:24.000 Well, we did a video on that on Vox, on gun crime, and it was one of the most misleading videos out there.

00:25:29.000 You can go see it on YouTube, where they switch graphs from per capita to overall numbers, and it's no longer a comparison.

00:25:36.000 And then instead of using countries that are, they say the UN's top ten most developed nations, and all of a sudden Japan isn't in there, or South Korea, and The United States, they just tailor it so it has the highest suicide rate.

00:25:49.000 And they were talking about how, look at all these deaths causes.

00:25:53.000 And they had AIDS, because apparently that's a big killer.

00:25:55.000 No, it's not.

00:25:58.000 Don't worry, Jared.

00:25:58.000 Terrorism.

00:25:58.000 You're safe.

00:26:00.000 Well, it depends.

00:26:01.000 And then he still works in my office.

00:26:03.000 I don't know if he can catch me from coughing, but I'm concerned.

00:26:07.000 And then...

00:26:08.000 Career-killing interview!

00:26:10.000 This is it.

00:26:10.000 Can I get a T in this?

00:26:12.000 This is why people come on the program.

00:26:14.000 Next time we'll have you play newest gender pronouns and we will urinate on the ashes of the career that was once Brad Thor's. 0.88

00:26:22.000 We just got a request today.

00:26:25.000 I'm not kidding.

00:26:26.000 From I Am Kate.

00:26:28.000 Asking if they could run one of our videos.

00:26:31.000 Like if they could use it in the reality show.

00:26:33.000 It's been great publicity for you.

00:26:35.000 I don't know.

00:26:36.000 There are several reasons because I'm not the only one in the video.

00:26:39.000 I'm like, I'm fine with it, but I don't want to hurt this other guy who's in the video.

00:26:39.000 I can't disclose it.

00:26:44.000 But I don't know.

00:26:45.000 Caitlyn Jenner seems like a decent guy, you know?

00:26:47.000 Listen, I met him before he became Kate.

00:26:50.000 I met him at Sirius when I was on book tour one year before he was going over to London for the Olympics.

00:26:55.000 And we sat there and talked about the Republican Party and talked about politics.

00:26:58.000 And it was a great – Bruce Jenner, Caitlyn Jenner, very smart person.

00:27:04.000 Well, I always felt so sad watching – like I once saw an episode of The Kardashians.

00:27:04.000 Yes.

00:27:10.000 That alone is enough to pity the poor guy.

00:27:13.000 You watch it, and the kids have no idea that their dad was an absolute rock star.

00:27:13.000 Well, that's it.

00:27:17.000 Like, he was the pinnacle.

00:27:20.000 Everyone had a poster of him on there.

00:27:21.000 He was the perfect male. 1.00

00:27:23.000 He was like, oh, he's a dumb idiot. 1.00

00:27:25.000 I was going, that's Bruce Jenner! 1.00

00:27:27.000 And now you slap some boobs on him, and he's a superstar all over again. 0.94

00:27:30.000 So you're saying it's genuine, the conservatism with Bruce Caitlyn. 0.96

00:27:34.000 Oh, yeah.

00:27:35.000 No, I felt it was.

00:27:36.000 We had a great talk about everything.

00:27:38.000 And super guy.

00:27:39.000 It was five minutes in the lobby with me waiting to go on one of the shows.

00:27:39.000 I mean, it was short.

00:27:44.000 But we chatted.

00:27:45.000 I really enjoyed talking with him.

00:27:46.000 Super, super bright guy.

00:27:47.000 Great American.

00:27:48.000 Obviously represented this country incredibly well in the Olympics.

00:27:53.000 So I enjoyed my time.

00:27:55.000 My whole five minutes.

00:27:56.000 It's serious.

00:27:57.000 That was back before black guys in track really became a thing.

00:28:00.000 Because the records have substantially changed.

00:28:04.000 Well, is it the Iranians that run women? 1.00

00:28:07.000 You know, they kind of pull the whole East German thing. 0.90

00:28:10.000 Yeah.

00:28:10.000 And are they going to rewrite all the records now that they want?

00:28:16.000 Well, now they hate him because he still wants to vote Republican.

00:28:19.000 So they're not going to give him any slack.

00:28:20.000 Well, not only does Caitlyn want to vote Republican, Ted Cruz doesn't hate Donald Trump, but prefers Ted Cruz.

00:28:26.000 That's even worse to the left.

00:28:27.000 How dare you? 0.96

00:28:29.000 It is funny when you go back and watch the Bruce Jenner race, there's one black guy. 0.99

00:28:33.000 You're like, well that changed quickly and apparently they realized that they were faster than Bruce.

00:28:39.000 So we're talking about San Bernardino.

00:28:41.000 It's still listed as gun violence, not terrorism.

00:28:45.000 So you say Europe might be the canary in the coal mine.

00:28:48.000 It should be.

00:28:49.000 But do you think people are at the stage where they're willing to see it as so?

00:28:54.000 Or do you think it's just, well, it's workplace violence, it's gun violence.

00:28:57.000 Are we still going to put our head in the sand?

00:29:00.000 Well, it depends on who you mean by who.

00:29:03.000 I mean, if it's the average American citizen, they're not even plugged into the political process.

00:29:07.000 I mean, that's one of the funny things, is you and I retweet each other all the time, and I'm looking at your stuff and you're reading mine.

00:29:13.000 And I think it was Sean Davis or Ed Morrissey who wrote this great piece about...

00:29:21.000 We're so politically active and we know everything that's going on and we know who the candidates are and what the policies are and all this stuff and we think that because this stuff is so important everybody else should be as tuned in as we are and that's not the case so when it comes to terrorism There are some really great men and women in our intelligence agencies and law enforcement and the special operations community, in particular in the military, that are tuned in, that are concerned about this stuff.

00:29:47.000 But I think the average American and a lot of the politicians are just out to lunch.

00:29:52.000 If we can't even call it Islamic terrorism or terrorism that's driven by the Quran and the Hadith, we're never going to get anywhere. 0.95

00:30:00.000 We're never, ever going to fix it.

00:30:02.000 I think you're mostly right, but I also think that's what kind of gives me a little bit of hope.

00:30:05.000 Like you said, a lot of people aren't plugged in, and I think that the cultural pendulum is swinging the other way, and that even for those people who aren't plugged in, they're calling BS and the multicultural pro-Islam BS. They're not really listening to Hillary Clinton at this point.

00:30:19.000 They're going, okay, this is enough.

00:30:21.000 There's a trend here.

00:30:23.000 So I think even people who aren't plugged in politically, most people, whereas at one time they were going to jump right on the Islamophobia train, I think you're going to have more people take the default position of, yeah, Islam's a problem.

00:30:36.000 Well, you didn't hear Samuel L. Jackson jumping up this time in Brussels saying, I hope it was white guys. 0.93

00:30:41.000 Remember?

00:30:42.000 That was his big thing after Sam Bernardino. 0.62

00:30:44.000 I hope it's white people. 1.00

00:30:46.000 And they went, aw, damn it. 1.00

00:30:47.000 No, no, no. 0.99

00:30:48.000 That's what he says when they were cast in a new film. 0.99

00:30:51.000 He's talking about the director because he doesn't want to be another Spike Lee piece of crap. 0.97

00:30:55.000 No, but he did say that about Sam Bernardino. 0.98

00:30:57.000 He got in a lot of trouble. 0.86

00:30:58.000 He didn't get in trouble in his circles, but he got a lot of attention that he wanted it to be white people and he was all, you know, hangdog when it was Muslims. 0.98

00:31:05.000 My dad can't stand Samuel L. Jackson.

00:31:07.000 It's just one of those guys who rubbed my...

00:31:08.000 Every time my dad sees him, like, the Capital One commercial goes on, I then get annoyed by my dad.

00:31:12.000 He's like, why is he always angry?

00:31:15.000 Why is this his shtick?

00:31:16.000 It's annoying.

00:31:17.000 What do you have in your wallet?

00:31:19.000 It's like somebody kind of shivved Bill Cosby.

00:31:23.000 So it goes, it's kind of that loud thing.

00:31:25.000 Or it's like Bill Cosby didn't get the pill into the coffee in time and he had to spend the night alone at the bar.

00:31:30.000 And then he becomes Samuel L. Jackson's.

00:31:32.000 It's like that Viagra commercial for, what was the Italian car for the Fiat, that the guy loses his Viagra out the window and it ends up going into the Fiat thing, except Bill Cosby's all upset because it's Rohypnol.

00:31:44.000 Wait, was this commercial for a Fiat or for Viagra?

00:31:48.000 No, it was a Fiat commercial for the beef.

00:31:51.000 Oh, okay.

00:31:51.000 And this old man was about to pop his Viagra in Italy, and this young mistress, and the tab goes out the window and ends up in the gas tank of the Fiat, and it plumps out and gets all sporty and lowered to the ground.

00:32:03.000 Wow, that sounds like a terrible commercial.

00:32:05.000 It works in Italy. 0.99

00:32:07.000 They sell everything in Italy through pure sex. 0.98

00:32:09.000 You ever seen Mexicans sell cars? 1.00

00:32:11.000 It's just breasts. 1.00

00:32:14.000 You're like, hey, hey, hey! 0.85

00:32:16.000 She's like, hey, it's Honda!

00:32:16.000 And it's a woman.

00:32:18.000 And you're like, well, okay, whatever.

00:32:19.000 I'll buy it.

00:32:21.000 It's absolutely true.

00:32:22.000 We learned this in college.

00:32:24.000 Yeah, it's all guys look at.

00:32:25.000 Well, no, specifically in Latin American countries and then, of course, in Italy, Spain, it's just that's the way they market.

00:32:33.000 And then you have certain countries where they market through technology like Germany.

00:32:36.000 And I think it's in the United States.

00:32:38.000 Action tends to work.

00:32:39.000 Sex and action, specifically.

00:32:41.000 Speaking of action, we can get back to Islam. 1.00

00:32:41.000 Anyway, sorry. 1.00

00:32:43.000 You work in, obviously, an industry that's very left-leaning.

00:32:47.000 Not as much as, say, obviously, like film and TV exclusively when you're writing.

00:32:53.000 Do you sense a shift among your peers as writers, as professional writers who were far left?

00:33:00.000 Do you think they're catching on?

00:33:03.000 You know, I don't know.

00:33:05.000 It's funny because it is, as a writer, it's very, very solitary.

00:33:10.000 I mean, I deal with my publishers, I deal with my editor, and the people at Simon& Schuster are all fantastic, and it runs the gamut, believe it or not, of political ideology.

00:33:21.000 So you've got people who are Hillary Clinton supporters, people who are Cruz, Trump supporters, it's all across the board.

00:33:28.000 And as far as what other authors are doing, I can think of one right now who is a particularly...

00:33:34.000 I'm not going to mention the guy, but you could... 0.92

00:33:36.000 I mean, the terrorist could come in and wipe out his whole family, and he still wouldn't say, Muslim terrorism.

00:33:41.000 So I don't necessarily know that it's had an impact on authors, but in all fairness, there's kind of a key group of guys that I talk to, and they're across the board politically, and There's a lot of that stuff that we just avoid.

00:33:55.000 We don't talk about it.

00:33:56.000 I think the guys that are writing about Muslim terrorists have seen it the entire time and the guys that write about other things haven't.

00:34:04.000 Let me ask you a question because you're a really accomplished writer.

00:34:07.000 You have an editor.

00:34:08.000 Are you really finicky before you send it to them that everything is or are there still typos or maybe like parentheses aren't perfect or do you make sure it's perfect so the editor has very little work?

00:34:18.000 No, I mean, I try to make it as clean as possible when I'm writing it, and then my wife reads it once, and she's an amazing editor.

00:34:25.000 So my wife catches a lot before it even gets to my editor in New York.

00:34:29.000 So I think my editor gets a very, very clean first draft, and she still catches stuff.

00:34:34.000 And then there's a copy editor that goes through with a ruler line by line and still catches more.

00:34:39.000 So it's more important for me to get a great, exciting story on the page than to get all the commas right.

00:34:45.000 And actually, Stephen, I'm not that good.

00:34:47.000 I'm one of the worst spellers.

00:34:48.000 If it wasn't for spellcheck, man, my family would be starving.

00:34:52.000 Well, I ask it because Courtney, one of our writers, she's very good at that.

00:34:58.000 We're a ragtag crew, so it's either me or Courtney who's proofing it.

00:35:02.000 I always wonder what authors.

00:35:03.000 I had someone who was a bestselling author one time send me when we were going out to dinner, and it was through email.

00:35:08.000 And I couldn't, it was, it was, it was, I couldn't even read it.

00:35:11.000 And I was going, there was no period, there was no punctuality, there was no capitals.

00:35:14.000 And I'm going, well, maybe I'm being too hard on myself.

00:35:17.000 That was all, that was just a personal thing.

00:35:18.000 So, no, apparently, you hear that, Jerry Brad?

00:35:20.000 Brad Thor's perfect.

00:35:23.000 Um...

00:35:24.000 We have a minute left, so we have to, I don't know how we have to wrap this up before we go to the next segment.

00:35:29.000 Because that's the thing, when you have a minute left, you don't want to cut Brad Thor off because he's Brad Thor.

00:35:33.000 He's Brad Thor.

00:35:34.000 He's squashed my nuts into oblivion.

00:35:36.000 What do you want to talk about when we go after the break so that we please you and you don't take our show off the air?

00:35:42.000 Let's talk about politics being downstream of culture.

00:35:45.000 Andrew Breitbart's famous line.

00:35:47.000 Andrew Breitbart, the man, or the trademark?

00:35:49.000 No, Andrew Breitbart, the man.

00:35:51.000 Okay, that's true.

00:35:52.000 Did you write at Big Hollywood back when it was Big Hollywood?

00:35:55.000 I did a couple of things for Big Government, Big Peace, several of the bigs when Andrew was still alive.

00:36:00.000 Okay, so a little, yeah, a little bit for that, because the first thing was bighollywood.breitbart.com because someone else was sitting on Big Hollywood, and I remember back then I was there with Adam Baldwin and Shapiro, and it was a grand old time.

00:36:12.000 Fellas.

00:36:13.000 Fellas, fellas. 1.00

00:36:13.000 All right, Jay, we're going to a break. 1.00

00:36:15.000 Okay, all right, louder with Crowder.

00:36:17.000 Stay tuned.

00:36:18.000 Stay tuned.

00:36:46.000 I'm Perry Matheson.

00:36:48.000 We now take you live to the historic meeting of President Barack Obama and Raul Castro in Cuba.

00:36:58.000 Yes!

00:36:59.000 Eat, drink!

00:37:00.000 How's your shrimp?

00:37:01.000 Did I not tell you they have the best shrimp?

00:37:03.000 That's pretty good shrimp. 0.53

00:37:04.000 He likes it!

00:37:05.000 I told you!

00:37:06.000 I'm glad to be here, but I do want to talk about human rights.

00:37:09.000 Sure, sure!

00:37:10.000 Human rights!

00:37:11.000 What is that?

00:37:12.000 You say tomato? 1.00

00:37:14.000 I think you have a hot phone call on the dissident f**k! 1.00

00:37:16.000 We all have our opinions! 1.00

00:37:17.000 He likes the shrimp!

00:37:19.000 Now, see, that's what I'm talking about.

00:37:20.000 Listen, Barack!

00:37:22.000 We want to start new.

00:37:22.000 Okay?

00:37:24.000 We wouldn't want you to try and culturally appropriate us, man.

00:37:27.000 You don't understand.

00:37:29.000 We have a long-standing tradition in Cuba of jamming hot pokers up dissidents. 0.98

00:37:34.000 See, now that's going to be a speed bump if we're going to open up lines of communication.

00:37:39.000 Okay, okay.

00:37:40.000 We'll talk about it.

00:37:41.000 Don't take so serious.

00:37:42.000 Let's go out.

00:37:43.000 We can do some trust-building exercises, huh?

00:37:45.000 That sounds progressive.

00:37:47.000 We'll keep you updated as this historic event unfolds.

00:37:52.000 On Waller with Crowler, I'm Perry Matheson.

00:37:58.000 You're a strange animal, that's what I know.

00:38:04.000 But you're a strange animal, I've got to follow. 0.89

00:38:10.000 Oh, I'm in the spiritus...

00:38:13.000 All right, glad to be back with a guest.

00:38:16.000 Bradthor.com.

00:38:17.000 That means it's Brad Thor.

00:38:18.000 Thank you for being back with us, sir.

00:38:19.000 You said you wanted to talk about how politics is downstream from culture.

00:38:23.000 Yeah, Andrew Breitbart talked about that a lot.

00:38:26.000 And that's why I was talking about how I think regardless of whether people are politically plugged in or not, I think culturally there's been a real swing with Islam.

00:38:35.000 And like them or not, I think the Donald Trump phenomenon can be explained by people saying, okay, you know, I'm just going to be offended.

00:38:41.000 You want to accuse me of being racist, sexist, homophobic?

00:38:44.000 Fine.

00:38:45.000 Let's go with that.

00:38:45.000 I don't care anymore.

00:38:47.000 Here's Donald Trump.

00:38:48.000 And even though maybe a lot of people don't necessarily support everything he says, it's just that pendulum swinging.

00:38:54.000 Now, anger isn't the best reason to vote, but I think you're seeing that.

00:38:58.000 I think you're seeing that with Islam.

00:38:59.000 I think you're seeing that with guns.

00:39:00.000 I think you're seeing that with feminism and free speech.

00:39:03.000 So I think culturally those are four winning issues right now.

00:39:08.000 Do you feel that way?

00:39:10.000 Or what do you think is more important, I guess, culturally as far as influence when compared with the micro-political climate of today?

00:39:17.000 Jeez, that was a mouthful of a question.

00:39:20.000 I was trying to sound wordy because you're such a successful author.

00:39:20.000 It was a mouthful.

00:39:23.000 What I really should say is, Brad, do you like guns and stuff?

00:39:28.000 You like guns and stuff?

00:39:29.000 Listen, when Trump first got in the race, and I won't go off on a Trump rant here, I was on TV saying I thought it was an excellent addition to the Republican primary because if it drew people's attention to the Republican platform, that was fantastic.

00:39:45.000 So I actually thought, as Trump was telling people he was conservative, that he was going to talk at least about conservative principles in government, so limited government and self-reliance and these kinds of things.

00:39:45.000 Sure.

00:39:56.000 I thought maybe he'd talk about the Constitution a little bit and stuff like that.

00:39:59.000 Maybe I would hear him... 0.98

00:40:00.000 Fool you!

00:40:01.000 Yeah, fooled you.

00:40:03.000 He got you!

00:40:04.000 You thought I was going...

00:40:05.000 Got him!

00:40:06.000 Ah!

00:40:08.000 I had said, I'd been on Lou Dobbs' show, and I had said, listen, I'm happy to have Trump in the race.

00:40:14.000 In fact, if Snooki wants to get in and she'll talk about Republican policies, be glad to have her.

00:40:20.000 And of course, yeah, shame on me.

00:40:22.000 I got fooled on that.

00:40:24.000 But it is, for me...

00:40:27.000 These things are important to me as an American.

00:40:31.000 You follow me on Twitter, like we said in the previous segment, I follow you.

00:40:35.000 It's interesting to watch my numbers on Twitter because I don't necessarily think everybody that follows me on Twitter is actually out reading my thrillers, which is very, very interesting.

00:40:46.000 I'll find people that I will tweet out something about, hey, my new book is coming out, and people will be like, oh, you're just in it to sell books.

00:40:52.000 And I said, oh, sorry, I'm supposed to be here 24-7 entertaining you with snarky and insightful political tweets, but this is actually how I feed my family, is writing thrillers.

00:41:03.000 And it's a tough business.

00:41:05.000 It's tough to be in popularity.

00:41:08.000 We're making movies in Hollywood and the people we're dealing with have been terrific.

00:41:12.000 But there's not a lot of people who are kind of conservatarian where they want limited small government and, you know, the kind of government to fit the realm and be in the sphere that the founders intended and then to stay out of everything else and return power back to the states so that people can be closer to all of those decisions at their state capitol.

00:41:32.000 Big thing for me as somebody who's a patriot, but also in the arts, it's a difficult balancing act.

00:41:37.000 And could I sell more books if I just shut up?

00:41:39.000 You know, if I wasn't out there talking about shrink government, get away from gun control. 0.91

00:41:45.000 Lou Dobbs is still alive?

00:41:48.000 Oh, come on. 0.87

00:41:49.000 Lou is a...

00:41:52.000 He is a really good guy.

00:41:54.000 I have enjoyed doing...

00:41:55.000 I saw Larry King once in Los Angeles at a cafe, and I swear to you, they pulled him out of, like, a Jim Hansen museum, and he's just held together with wire and string.

00:42:05.000 I couldn't believe it.

00:42:06.000 So skinny.

00:42:07.000 I sat next to him.

00:42:08.000 I was on the treadmill next to him at a hotel when I was in L.A., and, you know, he's walking.

00:42:12.000 He's got a squawk man on, and he's listening to some music, and then all of a sudden you hear, Boise, Idaho!

00:42:19.000 Have you seen his show, Jared?

00:42:21.000 No, I haven't.

00:42:22.000 The new internet show?

00:42:23.000 He interviewed Andrew W.K. And he's just like, it's the most uncomfortable thing.

00:42:23.000 Have you seen it?

00:42:28.000 He was like interviewing Jenna Marbles from YouTube.

00:42:31.000 He's like, so, this internet, here to stay!

00:42:40.000 Steve, I gotta throw two plugs out here because you're a comedian and I know you like to laugh.

00:42:45.000 I am binging on two things right now that I find absolutely hysterical.

00:42:50.000 One is a podcast called the Dead Authors Podcast.

00:42:54.000 And are you familiar with these guys?

00:42:55.000 I'll need to look it up.

00:42:55.000 No, I'm not.

00:42:56.000 Alright, so the Dead Authors Podcast is hysterical where they do it at the Groundlings Theater in L.A. Oh, my brother told me about this, yeah.

00:43:04.000 Yeah, it's hysterical.

00:43:05.000 One of my favorites is they have a comedian playing Ian Fleming, and the whole idea here is that Paul F. Tompkins is H.G. Wells, and he's got his time machine, and he can go back in time and bring authors to this theater in L.A. and interview him.

00:43:19.000 And so Ian Fleming won, and then Anne Frank.

00:43:23.000 My brother did send me some clips from Anne Frank.

00:43:25.000 It was funny.

00:43:26.000 It's so funny.

00:43:27.000 So that's the first one.

00:43:28.000 And then the second one that we just stumbled on on Showtime is David Steinberg's series Inside Comedy.

00:43:34.000 And it's fantastic.

00:43:35.000 And I just got to meet David Steinberg via Twitter this week.

00:43:40.000 I did a tweet saying how I'm binging it.

00:43:41.000 I love it.

00:43:42.000 And Steinberg tweeted me back saying, I've been a big fan of your books for a long time.

00:43:46.000 And it's one of the reasons how I know you is from Twitter.

00:43:48.000 That's See the anti-Semitism?

00:43:51.000 I say Larry King and he just tries to find a way to work in Steinberg.

00:43:54.000 Oh, I know another Jew!

00:43:57.000 Virtue signaling!

00:43:58.000 I'm not anti-Semitic!

00:43:59.000 Oh, whatever.

00:44:01.000 They tweeted me once.

00:44:02.000 We're close.

00:44:02.000 Next thing you know, the forward for his book is going to be written by David Duke.

00:44:05.000 Listen, no, I went to a predominantly Jewish high school.

00:44:08.000 I'm an honorary member of the tribe.

00:44:10.000 I've been to more high holidays than I have Christian holidays, I tell everybody.

00:44:13.000 Oh, well, okay.

00:44:15.000 No, it is funny.

00:44:16.000 If you watch the Larry King show, Andrew W.K., he was interviewing me.

00:44:18.000 He's like, Andrew W.K., what's the rumor that you're not real?

00:44:25.000 It's like some Illuminati conspiracy.

00:44:29.000 The guy's out of his mind.

00:44:31.000 Okay, so sorry, we were talking about, oh, we only have a minute.

00:44:33.000 Okay, so what do you think is, because we only have a minute left, what do you think is the most important thing now as we move forward in election, Islam, it seems like the world is upside down. 0.99

00:44:40.000 What's the silver lining for Americans out there from someone like you who works in pop culture?

00:44:46.000 Well, I'll tell you, I think one of the greatest things we're seeing is now a pushback on political correctness, which is going to make culture and it's going to make things a little bit more fun.

00:44:55.000 We don't have to walk on eggshells all the time.

00:44:57.000 I think you're true.

00:44:58.000 And whether, you know, we're not Trump guys in our number one draft pick, but there is value there where people say, oh, okay, you don't have to be political.

00:45:03.000 I've considered now like running for mayor.

00:45:05.000 And if people could say, hey, did you say this horrendously?

00:45:08.000 And I go, yeah, it sounds like me.

00:45:09.000 Yes, I did.

00:45:10.000 Boise, Idaho!

00:45:11.000 Yeah, Boise, Idaho!

00:45:14.000 Let's move on to Steinberg.

00:45:15.000 Okay, bradthor.com.

00:45:18.000 Brad, thanks for being here, brother, and we'll have to have you back with no more technical glitches.

00:45:53.000 The bod.

00:45:54.000 You know, this left-right paradigm that's been fed to the American public, and this pop culture for profit, media-driven entity is designed to keep you in the sand.

00:46:05.000 So that you don't focus on what's really mattering to Americans. 0.99

00:46:09.000 Which Kardashians on which magazine cover with which ass. 1.00

00:46:14.000 I'll tell you who the ass is. 1.00

00:46:16.000 It's you, the American public, for letting a string still being pulled on your ass. 1.00

00:46:24.000 Know the facts! 0.99

00:46:29.000 Hey, if you're listening to or watching this podcast, there's a strong chance that you are not yet following me on Twitter, at S. Crowder, where I'm tweeting all day long.

00:46:42.000 You should see the amount of hate I get on there. 0.76

00:47:18.000 You're just saying that because I made a mom joke.

00:47:20.000 then, well, you kind of walked into it.

00:47:20.000 No, she's really dead?

00:47:22.000 You've found yourself at the junction where worlds meet.

00:47:33.000 Politics.

00:47:35.000 How about honesty in this country, folks?

00:47:35.000 Civility?

00:47:37.000 Entertainment.

00:47:38.000 I don't like entertainment.

00:47:40.000 And a whole bunch of other stuff.

00:47:43.000 It's about having a healthy body image.

00:47:45.000 You have a very unhealthy body.

00:47:47.000 You should have a horrible body image. 0.96

00:47:48.000 Not a big home improvement market in Detroit. 1.00

00:47:50.000 We are You're a strange animal! 0.71

00:48:34.000 I appreciate that.

00:48:35.000 We are good.

00:48:36.000 Brad Thord.

00:48:37.000 Good guy, yeah.

00:48:37.000 Good guy.

00:48:38.000 Seems like a smart guy.

00:48:40.000 Seems like a smart guy.

00:48:41.000 Probably knows a lot of words.

00:48:44.000 He uses the best words.

00:48:46.000 He's going to use the best words.

00:48:48.000 All right, so we have, and then coming up after this, in this hour, we're going to have Sergeant Catherine.

00:48:52.000 Who will be calling in, talking about the mandatory sensitivity training in the military, and then, of course, Gerald Morgan.

00:48:58.000 After that, all right, it's kind of obligatory.

00:49:03.000 Obligatory?

00:49:04.000 Obligatory.

00:49:04.000 Some people still say obligatory.

00:49:07.000 How do you say it?

00:49:08.000 Tweet me, that's Crowder.

00:49:09.000 Obligatory.

00:49:10.000 You say obligatory, yeah.

00:49:11.000 I think it was a lot of Canadians who said obligatory.

00:49:14.000 Well, they're wrong about split everything, so I wouldn't take their word for it.

00:49:18.000 When Google Maps gives you a R-O-U-T-E... A route.

00:49:23.000 Not a route.

00:49:23.000 You don't say route.

00:49:24.000 Is that an American-Canadian thing, or are there Americans who say route?

00:49:28.000 I've heard a lot of Americans say route, too.

00:49:30.000 A lot of Americans have said route.

00:49:31.000 Just like tour or tour.

00:49:33.000 There's a lot of words out there that kind of like...

00:49:35.000 Who says tour?

00:49:36.000 Yeah, this band's going on tour.

00:49:36.000 Tour?

00:49:38.000 Tour?

00:49:39.000 Who says that?

00:49:39.000 A lot of people.

00:49:41.000 A lot of people.

00:49:42.000 Normal people with functional IQs. 0.79

00:49:44.000 No, they're not intelligent.

00:49:45.000 But they're out there.

00:49:47.000 Are these people who can feed themselves?

00:49:50.000 It depends on the day.

00:49:52.000 We'll say that.

00:49:53.000 Okay, that's my question.

00:49:55.000 Those same people who send TV dinners out to the African children. 0.54

00:50:01.000 When I'm polling here, I'm talking about the general, you know, the median IQ. I'm not talking about somebody who gets, you know, potatoes touching his beef and he crusts his eustachian tube.

00:50:11.000 Those outsiders, they really throw off the statistics. 0.71

00:50:13.000 So, I don't know.

00:50:14.000 They throw off the media.

00:50:15.000 So, let me kind of set the...

00:50:15.000 Okay.

00:50:18.000 A table for you here.

00:50:19.000 A lot of people are furious about this.

00:50:21.000 Listen, I've talked about this.

00:50:22.000 Donald Trump is not my draft pick, obviously.

00:50:25.000 But I've defended him where I think he's right.

00:50:27.000 There are things that I like about him.

00:50:29.000 Him insulting people's wives for not being as attractive as his third wife is not one of them.

00:50:35.000 Now, people, well, why don't you bring up the fact that Ted Cruz insulted his wife first?

00:50:39.000 It's not true.

00:50:39.000 Because he didn't.

00:50:40.000 And I got a lot of flack last week.

00:50:41.000 Why are you sticking up for John Kasich?

00:50:44.000 Listen to the podcast.

00:50:46.000 It's almost a guarantee that every single episode, we make fun of John Kasich in a way that is very unfriendly.

00:50:54.000 That being said, truth still matters.

00:50:57.000 George Soros did not give him $500,000.

00:51:00.000 I got pretty ticked off with Rubio at one point. 1.00

00:51:05.000 That being said, you'll never see it louder with Crowder, us running a conspiracy that Marco Rubio is a billionaire gay sex toy. 1.00

00:51:12.000 Because truth still matters. 0.99

00:51:14.000 That's just where I line up, and I think that's the same here with Ted Cruz and Donald Trump.

00:51:19.000 So, Donald Trump posted on Twitter that basically, he put up a picture that said...

00:51:27.000 No need to spill it.

00:51:28.000 He retweeted it.

00:51:29.000 Someone else created this picture saying a picture is worth a thousand words and it had a picture of Melania Trump.

00:51:34.000 Melania, I think.

00:51:34.000 Is it Melania?

00:51:35.000 Melania, I don't know.

00:51:36.000 Now you're saying it like John Mulaney.

00:51:38.000 A picture of Melania and it had an unflattering picture of Heidi Cruz basically saying, ha ha, my wife's hotter than your wife. 1.00

00:51:44.000 It was a slam to her looks. 1.00

00:51:46.000 Now, Heidi Cruz is not a bad-looking woman, either. 0.99

00:51:49.000 No.

00:51:50.000 Listen, any older woman, you can find at an angle, and it's not going to be flattering. 1.00

00:51:55.000 Any older man at that point. 0.91

00:51:56.000 Donald Trump doesn't know what an older woman looks like because he trades them in more often than his cars. 1.00

00:52:01.000 I mean, it would be more fair to compare first wife versus first wife, I think.

00:52:05.000 You know, my wife's better looking. 1.00

00:52:06.000 Well, which one?

00:52:07.000 Or is it someone else's wife, the people you were sleeping with?

00:52:10.000 You know, that still matters to me.

00:52:12.000 So, this went up.

00:52:13.000 Donald Trump was going after Ted Cruz's wife, and this was Ted Cruz answering today.

00:52:19.000 Let's roll it.

00:52:20.000 It's not easy to tick me off.

00:52:23.000 I don't get angry often.

00:52:25.000 But you mess with my wife, you mess with my kids, that'll do it every time. 1.00

00:52:30.000 Donald, you're a sniveling coward, and leave Heidi the hell alone. 1.00

00:52:33.000 So will you support him as the nominee? 1.00

00:52:34.000 Okay, let's go.

00:52:36.000 I'm gonna beat him.

00:52:38.000 I love it. 0.64

00:52:39.000 He says, I'm going to beat him.

00:52:41.000 And then pause.

00:52:43.000 For the nomination.

00:52:44.000 For the nomination.

00:52:45.000 And you're sitting there, he's like, I'm going to beat him.

00:52:47.000 And you're like, no, no, no, no, no.

00:52:48.000 No, hell no!

00:52:49.000 You want him to keep going.

00:52:51.000 It's just such an awkward question to ask, too.

00:52:51.000 Oh, I know.

00:52:53.000 You know, just like...

00:52:54.000 Right. 0.99

00:52:55.000 The crap? 1.00

00:52:55.000 What, the crap? 1.00

00:52:56.000 So, the Trump camp, of course, they lie in Ted. 1.00

00:52:59.000 People don't do research here.

00:53:00.000 Listen, nobody is spotless, okay?

00:53:03.000 There are some things about Ted Cruz.

00:53:04.000 We've criticized him.

00:53:05.000 We've got a lot of flack that I don't like about Ted Cruz.

00:53:09.000 But...

00:53:10.000 The argument that Trump camp is using is, well, why don't you address it like that Ted Cruz attacked Trump's...

00:53:15.000 No, he didn't.

00:53:16.000 There was a PAC, an anti-Trump PAC. There are a lot of anti-Trump PACs, by the way.

00:53:22.000 Anyone can create a PAC, and anyone can create a Twitter page for that PAC. Okay?

00:53:27.000 So it was an anti-Trump PAC that had no affiliation with Ted Cruz whatsoever.

00:53:31.000 Legally, they can't have affiliation.

00:53:32.000 They can't be talking to Ted Cruz.

00:53:34.000 Well, but to be fair, PACs, people will argue, there's a Mitt Romney PAC. Sure.

00:53:39.000 I think there are Ted Cruz PACs that exist.

00:53:42.000 This wasn't one of them.

00:53:43.000 This is an anti-Trump PAC. But legally, they're not allowed to even coordinate with the candidate themselves, legally.

00:53:47.000 Not to say it doesn't maybe happen.

00:53:47.000 No, they're not.

00:53:49.000 Yeah, and by the way...

00:53:50.000 We've kind of dealt with that, having booked presidential guests.

00:53:53.000 You know, you have to go through the right channels.

00:53:55.000 So it was a PAC, unaffiliated with Ted Cruz, ran an image.

00:53:59.000 It was an image that Trump's third wife took by herself for, I think, was it GQ? GQ. GQ. Naked.

00:54:06.000 Lovely looking woman naked. 1.00

00:54:07.000 Donald Trump. 1.00

00:54:07.000 I mean, listen, we've all seen your wife naked. 1.00

00:54:09.000 Everyone in America has seen your wife naked. 1.00

00:54:11.000 So we share that experience with you.

00:54:13.000 And, you know, she looks pretty good.

00:54:14.000 So it showed her self-picture.

00:54:17.000 I mean, she gets naked for money. 1.00

00:54:18.000 That's what Donald Trump's wife did. 1.00

00:54:21.000 Donald Trump's third wife gets naked for money.

00:54:23.000 And it said, this is your next first lady. 0.83

00:54:27.000 Or you could vote Ted Cruz on Tuesday.

00:54:29.000 So there was an image with this caption, a meme, that they ran as an ad on Facebook.

00:54:35.000 Donald Trump uses that.

00:54:36.000 It wasn't even a dirty meme that got off some encrypted phone.

00:54:39.000 I mean, this is all over Facebook.

00:54:42.000 It was all over Facebook, and it had nothing to do with Ted Cruz.

00:54:47.000 Even Sean Hannity, who reported that it was from Ted Cruz, apologized for it.

00:54:51.000 People who reported it issued retractions and corrected it.

00:54:54.000 So now that changes again to, well, Ted Cruz didn't condemn it.

00:54:59.000 Listen, you can't condemn everything.

00:55:01.000 Now people say, well, why are you good on Trump about the protesters?

00:55:04.000 First off, I didn't blame Trump for the violent Bernie protesters.

00:55:09.000 That being said, it's a poor argument, okay?

00:55:12.000 A PAC, unaffiliated with Ted Cruz, ran a meme online and ran it as a Facebook ad that Ted Cruz never saw, never cleared. 0.71

00:55:19.000 Donald Trump personally said, Deck him, lay him out, I want to punch him in the face, I'll pay your legal fees.

00:55:26.000 It's a little different. 0.61

00:55:28.000 Ted Cruz personally at no point has insulted Donald Trump's third wife, any of his wives, and Donald Trump personally has insulted Ted Cruz's wife.

00:55:38.000 So now the goalposts move, and of course they say, well, it's justified because Ted Cruz is lying, and all of these mainstream conservative sites have, they have these conspiracies from, Ted Cruz has had affairs, Anonymous has said that they have evidence of this, but they also threatened to release it if Ted Cruz didn't drop out before Ohio.

00:55:56.000 So I'm wondering why they haven't released it yet.

00:55:57.000 Then there's the idea that Ted Cruz's wife is a call girl.

00:56:01.000 And then there is this idea that Ted Cruz had an affair with Carly Fiorina.

00:56:05.000 These are the rumors that are being circulated.

00:56:07.000 And it's because Donald Trump said, I will spill.

00:56:09.000 I'll better spill the beans at your wife without ever actually backing anything up. 1.00

00:56:12.000 So instead of spilling beans, he just said, ha ha ha, your wife is ugly. 1.00

00:56:15.000 That's kind of where we are. 0.98

00:56:18.000 I didn't really want to have to talk about it.

00:56:20.000 We have to talk about it.

00:56:21.000 Tweet me at us, Crowder, as to what you think about it.

00:56:24.000 I think, listen, if I am the guy who they're...

00:56:28.000 And by the way, people get mad at anyone who wants to defend their wife saying you're a social justice warrior?

00:56:32.000 Listen.

00:56:33.000 It's not a social justice warrior thing to defend your wife. 1.00

00:56:36.000 I can't think of anything more masculine than defending your wife's honor.

00:56:40.000 At all.

00:56:41.000 I can't.

00:56:41.000 I know we're in an age where people on the internet are so impressed with how many women you can sleep with.

00:56:45.000 Here's something that should clue you in.

00:56:47.000 If someone is really impressed by the number of people you've slept with, it means it's hard for them to get laid.

00:56:53.000 It's only impressive because it's hard for them.

00:56:56.000 Growing up, you know, I watched my father have women thrown at him, threw themselves at him.

00:57:02.000 He's just a good-looking older guy, has always stayed in shape, articulate, successful.

00:57:06.000 And I, this is just a personal opinion, I always had great admiration for how loyal he was and how he always honored my mom and wore his wedding ring.

00:57:14.000 That was something that, to me, I thought, hey, you know what, it would be really easy.

00:57:17.000 Because when I'm a teenager, you know, some attractive women, you're thinking like, oh, that would be hard to resist that. 1.00

00:57:22.000 I think that's a quality that I like in a man.

00:57:25.000 I think it's a good character trait. 0.99

00:57:27.000 You may say that sleeping with more women is more valuable, but a lot of people giving crap to Ted Cruz, the only woman who could sleep with him, it's called a marital contract. 0.91

00:57:35.000 I know your guy doesn't believe in them, and he's had three, and he's slept with other people's wives, but are we really at a point where we want to start making fun of a guy for being married? 0.97

00:57:45.000 I mean...

00:57:46.000 I just don't know why this is happening on the conservative right.

00:57:50.000 I'm dumbfounded that the thrice-married, serial, philandering adulterer who owns strip clubs has convinced the Christian right that he's one of them with a verse from 2 Corinthians.

00:58:01.000 You know, I just don't like fakery.

00:58:04.000 That's all.

00:58:05.000 And I understand that people think Ted Cruz comes across as disingenuous.

00:58:08.000 He does.

00:58:09.000 Even there, I think that was genuine.

00:58:10.000 When he was on the show, remember during the break, we were kind of like, hey, hey, Senator, loosen up a little bit.

00:58:15.000 It's just the way he is.

00:58:16.000 Some people are like that.

00:58:18.000 So I understand the criticisms on both sides.

00:58:21.000 Anyway, that's what's happening.

00:58:22.000 You can tweet me at us, Crowder, what you think.

00:58:23.000 Our wives, fair game. 1.00

00:58:24.000 And what would you do if someone was making fun of your wife when you're running for president, calling her ugly?

00:58:31.000 Would you let it slide?

00:58:32.000 Would you talk back? 1.00

00:58:33.000 Would your presidential run be over because you'd just be beating his ass in the dressing room? 1.00

00:58:38.000 I don't know. 1.00

00:58:39.000 You tell me.

00:58:40.000 I know what my dad would have done.

00:58:43.000 I think my wife is used to it. 0.97

00:58:44.000 You've seen it.

00:58:45.000 We've gotten a lot of stuff from my wife because she's been on the show, so we kind of expect it.

00:58:51.000 It's sad that this is the state of American politics.

00:58:53.000 We're talking about people's wives.

00:58:55.000 Who aren't even, like, really involved in the election process for these guys.

00:58:59.000 Well, Ted Cruz's wife is a surrogate.

00:59:01.000 They show up to things, but, I mean, that's...

00:59:03.000 They don't seem like they're fair game to me.

00:59:05.000 Right.

00:59:06.000 Well, Melania shows up naked, so, you know, she does provide some moral support for people at the protests.

00:59:11.000 Lotta with Crowder.

00:59:12.000 Crowder will be back to talk about Disney.

00:59:13.000 This is John Kasich's Ask Me Anything, and I approve this message.

00:59:42.000 All right, again, I'm trying to keep the spirit of being positive.

00:59:45.000 I'm not going to take the lowest road to the highest office in the land.

00:59:49.000 Yes, you over there.

00:59:51.000 Yes, thank you, Mr. 1.00

00:59:52.000 First question, why are you such a piece of s***? 1.00

00:59:52.000 Kasich. 1.00

00:59:56.000 Now, I'm pretty sure I already answered that question.

00:59:59.000 Yeah, I wasn't listening, so...

01:00:01.000 Oh, see, I think that's the problem.

01:00:03.000 Nobody in America is listening to each other.

01:00:05.000 Nah, we're listening.

01:00:06.000 Just not you, man.

01:00:07.000 Well, I've listened.

01:00:10.000 I really don't think I am. 0.99

01:00:12.000 Yeah, but new poll coming out from Quinnipiniac shows that 89% of Americans sent you a piece of s**t. 0.98

01:00:19.000 Hey, come on! 1.00

01:00:23.000 Really?

01:00:25.000 Stay tuned for more of John Kasich's Ask Me Anything.

01:00:29.000 I'm John Kasich, and I approve this message.

01:01:12.000 Get her a medal.

01:01:13.000 We'll be right back.

01:01:43.000 All right.

01:01:51.000 All right.

01:01:52.000 We are back with a few stories.

01:01:53.000 Man, we have so much to talk about this week.

01:01:54.000 That's the problem with the once a week show.

01:01:56.000 Sometimes something happens and you're like, how are we going to fit this into a show?

01:01:59.000 But it's better than having to make stuff up when you have a daily show and you're doing like four hours.

01:02:03.000 It's just fabricating news right and left.

01:02:05.000 Sometimes they're just scraping the bottom of the barrel.

01:02:08.000 Oh, yeah.

01:02:09.000 Oh, yeah.

01:02:10.000 Sometimes these hosts brag that they don't do show prep.

01:02:12.000 We don't do show prep.

01:02:14.000 Well, you just don't have any respect for your audience.

01:02:18.000 Why do you hate your constituency?

01:02:20.000 Why do you hate them so?

01:02:21.000 They pay your salary.

01:02:23.000 Someone tweeted me, Barwon Scorpio, you seem to think that Ted Cruz punching out Trump in the back room over his wife would kill his presidential run.

01:02:29.000 Odd notion.

01:02:30.000 Hmm.

01:02:31.000 Someone said, interesting, actually, Cruz folks attacked his wife.

01:02:34.000 People believe that Ted Cruz personally attacked Donald Trump's wife. 1.00

01:02:39.000 That takes a special kind of stupid. 1.00

01:02:41.000 Alright, so I do have an email here. 1.00

01:02:43.000 From Kathleen Kostler.

01:02:45.000 I'm not entirely sure.

01:02:46.000 She sent a really long email.

01:02:48.000 And I told her I would answer her on today's program.

01:02:51.000 She was asking me about Canadian health care, all these things.

01:02:53.000 And some positive feedback, but some negative feedback. 0.99

01:02:57.000 She asked me, because I called Leonardo DiCaprio a dumbass. 0.96

01:03:02.000 Respectfully? 0.99

01:03:03.000 No, very disrespectful.

01:03:04.000 Oh, okay.

01:03:05.000 You don't need to clear it up.

01:03:05.000 Don't worry.

01:03:07.000 I've...

01:03:09.000 I made my bed here.

01:03:10.000 I'll sleep in it, okay? 0.99

01:03:11.000 She said, as a Christian, do you think Jesus would call Leonardo DiCaprio a dumbass? 0.99

01:03:16.000 I don't know if Jesus would. 0.98

01:03:18.000 But he'd be thinking it. 0.96

01:03:19.000 And Jesus called people fools.

01:03:22.000 I get this a lot. 0.92

01:03:22.000 Like, hey, you know, why do you insult people if you're a Christian? 0.92

01:03:26.000 First off, this isn't a Christian show.

01:03:27.000 Okay, I never hold myself out as an example to follow for modern Christendom.

01:03:32.000 I'm open about my faith, but if you are looking for a pervert example, move on down the line.

01:03:37.000 I'm not your guy.

01:03:38.000 I try. 0.97

01:03:39.000 But Jesus called people fools. 0.64

01:03:41.000 And that's a big deal, too.

01:03:41.000 A lot of people think Jesus never insulted anybody.

01:03:45.000 When people say, what would Jesus do?

01:03:46.000 Let them know that... 0.99

01:03:48.000 Could be whooping ass and destroying the temple. 0.99

01:03:50.000 That happened too. 1.00

01:03:51.000 I mean, this idea that he was just a total hippie.

01:03:53.000 Totally an option.

01:03:54.000 Yeah, it's totally, like, it's on the table. 1.00

01:03:58.000 So he called people fools, which is far worse than dumbass. 0.99

01:04:00.000 If you look at it historically, a fool was calling someone's entire character into question. 1.00

01:04:05.000 Dumbass is kind of a flippant word to make fun of somebody. 0.98

01:04:08.000 And so, yeah, I'm perfectly fine with it. 0.97

01:04:09.000 This person asked me, too.

01:04:10.000 We've talked about this, Jared.

01:04:11.000 A lot of Christians, too, they say, well, you know, I believe in freedom of speech and I believe in a lot of young Christians are pro-life, but it seems like Republicans don't want to help the poor and the sickest among us.

01:04:21.000 And she talked about her parents having to pay $4,000 for her in an emergency room.

01:04:25.000 I'm sorry that you were in an emergency room, Kathleen.

01:04:28.000 But you've bought into a lie.

01:04:30.000 Let me explain it to you.

01:04:31.000 You've bought into a lie that Republicans don't care.

01:04:34.000 It's not that they don't care.

01:04:35.000 It's that they believe in different solutions.

01:04:36.000 Now, you mentioned Medicaid in your email.

01:04:39.000 That doesn't work very well.

01:04:41.000 Social Security doesn't work very well.

01:04:43.000 The numbers don't add up.

01:04:44.000 You and I, I'm assuming, we're around the same age.

01:04:46.000 You won't be getting Social Security just like I won't be getting Social Security.

01:04:48.000 When Republicans say, hey, Social Security is broken, if they badmouth it, it's not because they don't want to help people.

01:04:55.000 It's because they know that the promises from the left are false.

01:04:58.000 As far as your parents having to pay $4,000 for you in an emergency room, listen, my deductible is more than that.

01:05:04.000 I have a very high deductible, catastrophic insurance.

01:05:07.000 My insurance company pays 100% after that with a low premium.

01:05:10.000 And my wife and I stay healthy.

01:05:10.000 Okay?

01:05:14.000 It is not the job of the taxpayer to ensure low-cost health care for everybody.

01:05:20.000 And that being said, you say that Republicans don't have answers.

01:05:22.000 They do have answers.

01:05:23.000 They talk about opening up insurance across state lines.

01:05:25.000 They talk about tort reform.

01:05:26.000 So if you believe that Republicans haven't talked about answers, there have been proposals pushed.

01:05:31.000 Before the legal channels available in our current system of government, that of course have been completely struck down by the left.

01:05:38.000 So if you believe that Republicans haven't done anything, you've bought into a lie.

01:05:42.000 And I would advise you read some smarter people and probably get some smarter friends, because that's simply not true.

01:05:47.000 It's easy to say, hey, because Republicans don't think it should be free, by the way.

01:05:51.000 Free means free for you.

01:05:52.000 Free means free for me, not free for somebody else.

01:05:55.000 Somebody else is paying for this.

01:05:57.000 To say that, man, Republicans don't want me to get this for free, therefore they don't care about people, it's not true.

01:06:03.000 They want the systems to work, and they care about the people who are making it free for you.

01:06:10.000 So that's something that's important.

01:06:11.000 Don't buy that wholesale, this idea that if people don't want to give you stuff, they're somehow mean.

01:06:15.000 That would mean that every single parent who doesn't give their children the things they want is a mean, abusive parent, and I don't buy it.

01:06:22.000 Sometimes a parent gives you a cookie if you've been good. 0.80

01:06:24.000 Sometimes a parent gives you a wooden spoon on your posterior.

01:06:28.000 Both are signs of love.

01:06:31.000 And both are equally productive.

01:06:33.000 This is something you get a lot from particularly young Christians.

01:06:35.000 You've noticed this.

01:06:36.000 Oh, yeah.

01:06:37.000 Yeah, because they try to equate the two.

01:06:38.000 They try to kind of just bridge the gap between politics and their political views and their Christian thoughts and values.

01:06:44.000 And they kind of just think the nice party, the party that's deemed as nice and charitable, must be kind of trying to fit it together with Christianity.

01:06:52.000 And it doesn't work.

01:06:54.000 I don't know.

01:06:54.000 It's funny to watch them try.

01:06:57.000 Right.

01:06:58.000 No, it can't function.

01:07:00.000 And like you said, sometimes you have to put your Christian hat on and sometimes your American hat on.

01:07:03.000 I think Rand Paul has been pretty good about that.

01:07:05.000 I think Ted Cruz is pretty good about that.

01:07:07.000 Ted Cruz is obviously deeply Christian.

01:07:08.000 Of course, people have attacked him for it, like Drudge and Breitbart and other conservative outlets for being too Christian.

01:07:15.000 And that's the right.

01:07:16.000 Listen, if you don't like someone who's too Christian, of course you shouldn't vote for them. 1.00

01:07:20.000 But he's also kept it limited.

01:07:22.000 He was on this show when we asked about the drug issue, and he said that should be left to the states.

01:07:25.000 He thought the Supreme Court ruling on marriage was a problem and that states should have the right to determine marriage within their borders.

01:07:32.000 So he's a guy who is a Christian, but he's a true federalist.

01:07:36.000 He's a true constitutionalist.

01:07:37.000 Same thing with Rand Paul.

01:07:38.000 I think Rand Paul is actually pretty devoutly a faithful person, but he also doesn't believe that he has the right to tell someone what they can and can't put in their body.

01:07:48.000 I fall along those lines.

01:07:50.000 I'll still talk about drugs not being good for you, but I also don't believe it's my right to tell someone in Colorado that they can't smoke up from a former KFC joint.

01:08:00.000 So, hopefully I answered your question.

01:08:01.000 Thank you for the email, Kathleen.

01:08:03.000 We appreciate it.

01:08:04.000 And we're going to go back to making Wiener jokes after this.

01:08:07.000 Is it Sergeant Catherine right after this?

01:08:08.000 Yeah, I think so.

01:08:09.000 She's coming up the next segment?

01:08:10.000 Yep.

01:08:11.000 Gosh, we are clipping along.

01:08:12.000 Okay, so let me set the stage for you before we come in.

01:08:14.000 We'll talk with Sergeant Catherine.

01:08:16.000 For those not watching, she's adorable.

01:08:18.000 Video live stream.

01:08:19.000 Former sergeant in the military.

01:08:21.000 And right now there is mandatory sensitivity training in the United States military.

01:08:26.000 So social justice warriors and feminists have somehow invaded the military. 1.00

01:08:31.000 I was hoping it'd be the other way around.

01:08:32.000 I would have loved to see the United States military just invade feminist conventions. 1.00

01:08:36.000 Yeah! 0.99

01:08:36.000 Just go nuts. 0.99

01:08:37.000 Martial law on the feminists. 1.00

01:08:38.000 I don't support carpet bombing, with a few exceptions.

01:08:41.000 Feminists being on that list, and I don't think that's unreasonable, it's certainly not an untenable position. 1.00

01:08:49.000 I know people are going to get mad.

01:08:51.000 This is why I don't endorse a candidate.

01:08:52.000 Someone's going to say, did you get an endorsement from this man who says...

01:08:57.000 You should carpet bomb feminists? 1.00

01:08:59.000 I did say that. 0.98

01:08:59.000 It sounds like me. 0.98

01:09:00.000 Lotto with Karate.

01:09:01.000 All right, we'll be back.

01:09:02.000 We'll be back.

01:09:32.000 This is breaking news on the Lower Whale Crawler.

01:09:35.000 I'm Perry Matheson.

01:09:37.000 We now take you live to the historic meeting of President Barack Obama and Raul Castro in Cuba.

01:09:46.000 Okay, this is great.

01:09:47.000 This is team building.

01:09:49.000 We did this back with the firing squads with Che and Fidel.

01:09:52.000 Okay, you promise you're going to catch me?

01:09:54.000 I promise I'm going to catch.

01:09:56.000 Okay, no tricks now.

01:09:57.000 Okay, I'm going to fall back.

01:09:58.000 I'm not looking.

01:09:59.000 Okay, I'm putting my hand over my face.

01:10:03.000 He got me!

01:10:04.000 The guy!

01:10:05.000 This guy!

01:10:06.000 I'm good to my work.

01:10:07.000 You are!

01:10:07.000 I love that about you.

01:10:08.000 Okay, now my turn.

01:10:09.000 You're going to fall back.

01:10:10.000 Are you ready?

01:10:11.000 You're going to catch me?

01:10:12.000 Of course!

01:10:13.000 Fall back! 1.00

01:10:13.000 I'm ready! 1.00

01:10:14.000 Okay, I got you!

01:10:16.000 Hey, Barack!

01:10:21.000 Barack!

01:10:24.000 Okay, someone get the hot poker. 0.99

01:10:27.000 We'll keep you updated as this historic event unfolds.

01:10:31.000 On Waller with Crowler, I'm Perry Matheson.

01:10:36.000 Whoa, Jared, what are you doing? 0.98

01:10:38.000 Shoot bad guys! 0.98

01:10:48.000 They have AR-15 and accessories for sale and the best advice there is on the web!

01:10:52.000 Oh no, there's another one!

01:10:53.000 Kaboom! 0.99

01:10:54.000 You got him!

01:10:55.000 Yeah!

01:10:58.000 AR-15.com!

01:10:59.000 That's the best place to go, and that's the takeaway, because this commercial's about to stop!

01:11:02.000 We are here.

01:11:26.000 We are dancing to Happy Songs.

01:11:28.000 So glad to have this next guest.

01:11:30.000 She used to listen to the show.

01:11:32.000 We used to hear from her more often, so I'm glad to hear that she's okay.

01:11:34.000 She's not living in a bomb shelter somewhere like Cloverfield Lane.

01:11:37.000 I have to see that.

01:11:39.000 Sergeant Catherine House, are you with us, ma'am?

01:11:42.000 I'm here.

01:11:43.000 Okay, we're glad to have you with us.

01:11:45.000 Thank you.

01:11:45.000 This is the first time I've seen you, for those watching the live video stream.

01:11:50.000 So thank you for being with us.

01:11:51.000 Now, you were a sergeant.

01:11:53.000 And can you say which branch?

01:11:57.000 Yep, it's in the Marine Corps.

01:11:59.000 Okay, so you are in the Marine Corps.

01:12:01.000 Okay, so have you been following this going on right now, the unconscious bias training?

01:12:05.000 You know, until you messaged me, I hadn't heard about it yet.

01:12:09.000 Sometimes I go offline for a while.

01:12:12.000 Yeah, I know.

01:12:13.000 It's probably been pretty toxic lately.

01:12:15.000 It's soul-crushing.

01:12:17.000 Yeah, I just, you know, it gets exhausting.

01:12:20.000 So you can only take so much.

01:12:22.000 Okay, well, basically it's mandatory kind of sensitivity training.

01:12:25.000 That's what I call it.

01:12:26.000 But it's unconscious bias.

01:12:29.000 We have it right here.

01:12:29.000 Topics include how people prejudge others based on factors such as race, gender, and the principles of institutional change.

01:12:37.000 So this is mandatory now because women are going to be on the front lines. 1.00

01:12:41.000 So let me ask you this.

01:12:42.000 When you were there...

01:12:44.000 Was there anything like this in the Marines?

01:12:46.000 Did they have to give them special treatment and coach the men?

01:12:51.000 Or was it everyone fall in line?

01:12:53.000 You're all a number like it's kind of supposed to be.

01:12:56.000 Right.

01:12:58.000 When I was in, it was more the first...

01:13:01.000 It was more...

01:13:02.000 You're just a number.

01:13:04.000 And that's the way it was supposed to be.

01:13:05.000 And, you know, we're all one color.

01:13:07.000 We're green.

01:13:08.000 Right?

01:13:09.000 And there's light green.

01:13:09.000 And there's dark green.

01:13:10.000 But we're all green.

01:13:11.000 And it doesn't matter.

01:13:12.000 And, yeah, it's really upsetting to see what's happening.

01:13:19.000 Just because...

01:13:20.000 And I... I hear sensitivity training because of women, and I think, wow, it just reminds me of, I don't know if you, you have a brother growing up, you have a sibling, and you don't want to, you know, play with them or include them, like you have a friend over, and then your parents make you, and there's this resentment.

01:13:44.000 And there already is some resentment, you know, of women.

01:13:49.000 Of women in the military?

01:13:51.000 Yes.

01:13:52.000 Did you feel that when you were there?

01:13:52.000 Okay.

01:13:55.000 You know, sometimes, but sometimes it's warranted.

01:13:59.000 And every female Marine was an individual case. 0.99

01:14:03.000 Well, you're not a particularly large woman.

01:14:06.000 You're petite.

01:14:08.000 I'm very petite.

01:14:09.000 I'm only five feet.

01:14:13.000 So I'm very small.

01:14:15.000 And, yeah, I... So it seems to me that if someone would want this training, right, this is being designed for people like you, smaller women who might have some trepidation saying, ooh, I don't know if she can carry that heavy gear, and they're trying to tell the guys, no, no, no, no, no, you can't think that way.

01:14:32.000 It seems like it's designed for when men walk through those doors, expect a leather-necked tobacco-chewing dude with a crew cut, and they see you.

01:14:42.000 Right.

01:14:43.000 And one thing that they taught us in the Marine Corps is know your Marines' limitations.

01:14:51.000 And so you're supposed to recognize that Marine, whether it be male or female, can't carry that load.

01:14:57.000 So you give that Marine a job that they can do.

01:15:00.000 But the thing is, when...

01:15:02.000 I mean, you know where I stand before on the whole women in combat thing. 1.00

01:15:08.000 For people who are not listening, she's not very pro-women at the front lines in combat, despite being a female sergeant.

01:15:13.000 For those tuning in for the first time.

01:15:16.000 No, I was actually on a female engagement team, and in a combat environment and situations, even though it technically wasn't on the front lines, I was in direct support of an infantry unit.

01:15:34.000 And it's more than the physical, it's more the dynamic between men and women.

01:15:41.000 I find that's more destructive.

01:15:43.000 Right.

01:15:44.000 Right.

01:15:44.000 Well, that's what they're trying to shut off here.

01:15:46.000 And you've talked about this.

01:15:47.000 It's not just that, listen, you're five foot and you're obviously, you know, you're not rotund.

01:15:52.000 So I'm sure we'll get plenty of comments of people, you know, you're a married woman, so people should know that.

01:15:57.000 But obviously it might be harder for you to carry some of these packs.

01:16:02.000 And men will say, oh my, let's not overburden her because men naturally want to protect women. 1.00

01:16:08.000 So this is what this is about.

01:16:09.000 They're saying, no, no, no, don't prejudge.

01:16:12.000 Basically, to guilt men from their natural instincts, well, simultaneously, as you know, lowering PT requirements.

01:16:18.000 So men don't know what to do.

01:16:21.000 Right.

01:16:21.000 Yeah, it's very confusing for them because, you know, they want to treat us the same way, but then, you know, most of us can't do...

01:16:30.000 The same things physically, and there's no way.

01:16:34.000 I mean, we had some Amazon women who were very muscular and actually kind of built like men that could lift that much. 1.00

01:16:42.000 But then you have, I'm telling you, beyond the physical, it's a personality factor, too, because it gets...

01:16:53.000 Especially the younger Marines, which most are. 0.93

01:16:56.000 I was kind of older going in.

01:16:58.000 I was actually 27, 28 when I was over there.

01:17:02.000 And that's actually older.

01:17:04.000 Sure.

01:17:06.000 With that, you get more maturity, and the younger Marines, they fall easier into starting up maybe a relationship or something, which is totally not allowed.

01:17:18.000 No, well, it's not allowed even in your basic office place at the coffee machine, but sometimes people are still getting busy by the coffee machine.

01:17:25.000 Right, right, and it messes with...

01:17:27.000 It messes with unit cohesion like nobody's business.

01:17:30.000 And you get love triangles and you get this.

01:17:33.000 I was very fortunate because I had one...

01:17:36.000 My co-worker, my partner, my female partner that I was...

01:17:42.000 Embedded in the infantry unit with, I was very fortunate.

01:17:46.000 She was another, on the older side, female who was married and very faithful and very professional.

01:17:56.000 So I didn't run into some problems that other females ran into. 1.00

01:18:02.000 You make it sound like it's General Hospital with guns.

01:18:06.000 Well, it basically is.

01:18:07.000 Yeah, it gets really...

01:18:09.000 It gets...

01:18:13.000 I don't know, in the weeds.

01:18:14.000 It just does.

01:18:16.000 Right.

01:18:17.000 Yeah, well, you know...

01:18:18.000 It's just not a good idea.

01:18:19.000 No, it just doesn't seem like a good idea.

01:18:21.000 And I was just wondering what people, how men want to make sense of this.

01:18:24.000 And it seemed like when I was there, when I entertained the troops, it's been a while now, I haven't done it in a while, they actually weren't even allowed to comment on the president, anything political.

01:18:34.000 They said, well, you know what, we're not really supposed to even have an opinion on that.

01:18:37.000 I'm losing you.

01:18:38.000 Well, I'm sorry that you're losing me.

01:18:40.000 Are you gone?

01:18:40.000 Did we lose Catherine?

01:18:42.000 I guess she can't hear me.

01:18:44.000 She's frozen right now.

01:18:46.000 Alright, well let's let her go, not KJ. Catherine, thank you for being with us.

01:18:48.000 We'll have to bring you back.

01:18:49.000 Her little one was awake, and I think it was a little bit tough for her, but not someone you'd expect to be a Marine Sergeant.

01:18:54.000 No, not at all.

01:18:55.000 And it's kind of funny just seeing a different perspective that you don't normally get from people.

01:19:00.000 Right.

01:19:02.000 She's not the kind of person you would pick out for. 0.86

01:19:05.000 The kind of training is designed for her. 0.79

01:19:07.000 Exactly.

01:19:08.000 That's what people don't understand.

01:19:08.000 It's designed for the smaller woman to tell men, hey, you need to treat them in a way that is respectful and just the same as you would treat any guy.

01:19:15.000 Okay, but they're going to do less push-ups and pull-ups. 0.98

01:19:17.000 So there's that.

01:19:18.000 But everything else is the same.

01:19:20.000 In the running, they're going to have a longer time for running.

01:19:22.000 And don't give them too much heavy stuff to carry because, you know, listen, also they're going to need some time for feminine hygiene. 1.00

01:19:29.000 But aside from that, you treat them exactly the same.

01:19:31.000 It's a really tough position.

01:19:33.000 The military was meant to be a microcosm of a world without politics, certainly without gender identity politics, where you went in and you got the job done.

01:19:41.000 That's why they shave your hair.

01:19:42.000 That's why you're put in the same uniform.

01:19:44.000 You know, when people talk about, well, that's actually in a military, you are supposed to be a number.

01:19:49.000 You are supposed to be somewhat mindless.

01:19:52.000 When you're in a platoon, you are supposed to act as a unit. 0.99

01:19:56.000 Not mindless in that you're supposed to be dumb, but you're supposed to be mindless in that you don't act on your own volition. 0.76

01:20:01.000 You act in the best interest of the team, and you take those commands from the top down. 0.98

01:20:04.000 That's how the military works.

01:20:06.000 But now we want to make it about...

01:20:08.000 And by the way, that's a good thing in the military.

01:20:12.000 Obviously, freedom of speech, being an individual outside of the military, but people need to fall in line.

01:20:16.000 That is how the military has operated.

01:20:19.000 All of those things are designed to make you into nothing more than a number, and then you become one unit.

01:20:26.000 That's how they bond.

01:20:27.000 I mean, if anyone has known anyone in the military, they have friends for life.

01:20:30.000 Oh, yeah, absolutely.

01:20:31.000 Now, do you see this?

01:20:32.000 I was thinking about this.

01:20:33.000 Do you see this as a kind of the macro movement here?

01:20:36.000 Of a way of kind of the progressive movement, trying to kind of infiltrate the military in the same way that they've infiltrated the education system, that teachers are coming out, you know, consistently more and more and farther to the left, that our students and stuff are coming out farther to the left.

01:20:50.000 It's kind of just the natural bent.

01:20:51.000 Do you see that?

01:20:52.000 I mean, you know the military produces a lot of conservatives.

01:20:55.000 Yeah.

01:20:56.000 People that come in and go in maybe kind of not knowing where they are, generally seem to come out more conservative than not.

01:21:01.000 It seems to be the trend.

01:21:02.000 I mean, if I'm creating leftist tactics...

01:21:02.000 Yes.

01:21:06.000 It seems brilliant to me.

01:21:07.000 You know, start with, you know, sensitivity training and then move on to...

01:21:11.000 You know, get the transgenders out there and make it just the norm in a wing of the political left. 1.00

01:21:11.000 It's the one place. 1.00

01:21:17.000 Well, here's the beauty of the left, right?

01:21:18.000 What they want.

01:21:19.000 They want you to put your children in public school.

01:21:22.000 They want the mom to go to work so that you can put the kid in daycare, which should also be publicly funded, according to people like Bernie Sanders and Hillary. 0.99

01:21:29.000 So they want public schools, the mom working, public daycare, and then free college. 1.00

01:21:33.000 And if it's not free, either way, you go to college, obviously everyone knows where they lean politically.

01:21:36.000 You go into college where it's nothing but leftist professors.

01:21:39.000 Oh, we should talk about that.

01:21:40.000 We wrote about that professor, I think, was it at Dartmouth?

01:21:42.000 Peter Singer, who was arguing for bestiality and infanticide.

01:21:46.000 This is the kind of stuff they're teaching at your school.

01:21:48.000 By the way, professors will fail students for giving the wrong opinion.

01:21:51.000 Public school, public daycare, public college, and then hopefully they get them into a job in the social sector, social work, working for the government, or working for a union.

01:22:00.000 If you do that, people are bombarded with the same opinion always.

01:22:03.000 The one area where they lose control a little bit is the military.

01:22:07.000 Like you said, people tend to come out of there more conservative.

01:22:09.000 It's just the nature of the beast, right?

01:22:11.000 Or more libertarian.

01:22:12.000 You don't see a lot of bleeding heart leftists in the military.

01:22:15.000 They exist, but we're making generalizations here because I know I'll get an email.

01:22:19.000 You're right.

01:22:20.000 Gosh, we've got to get a foothold in there.

01:22:20.000 That's the one place.

01:22:22.000 And here we are.

01:22:24.000 What about...

01:22:24.000 Do we toss...

01:22:26.000 Well, I guess the whole gender thing, the transgender thing doesn't really matter in the military because they're just tossing them into joined groups. 0.97

01:22:32.000 We didn't even do...

01:22:34.000 Phys-ed with women. 0.95

01:22:36.000 Co-ed physical education.

01:22:38.000 No.

01:22:38.000 It was an event once they merged the classes, and every guy was self-conscious because they put you in those little shorts and you have your thigh hair, and the women are taller than you at that point, and they're beating the tar out of the guys in the 8th grade.

01:22:48.000 It's embarrassing.

01:22:49.000 But that was an exception.

01:22:51.000 Men's and women's basketball, men's and women's MMA and all that kind of stuff, but we want to put them on the same playing field for the front lines of the country there, so...

01:22:59.000 Yeah.

01:23:00.000 America.

01:23:01.000 Right.

01:23:01.000 So not in high school.

01:23:03.000 Is gym phys ed?

01:23:03.000 I don't know.

01:23:04.000 Is phys ed entirely co-ed now in high school?

01:23:06.000 Is that the rule?

01:23:06.000 I would imagine it would have to be.

01:23:07.000 I was homeschooled, so I mean, it was just kind of whatever we wanted.

01:23:10.000 Yeah.

01:23:11.000 I didn't exercise much, apparently.

01:23:13.000 Well, your phys ed, sex ed, and music was all one and the same course because Jared learned to play the organ.

01:23:21.000 We're going to let that sink in.

01:23:22.000 Jared doesn't know what that means.

01:23:23.000 I know what that means.

01:23:24.000 Okay, we know what that means.

01:23:24.000 I'm looking it up right now.

01:23:27.000 Organ is an instrument.

01:23:28.000 It also can be a bodily part.

01:23:30.000 Oh.

01:23:31.000 Good lord, dude.

01:23:32.000 You are usually not on your game tonight.

01:23:32.000 Like lungs.

01:23:34.000 Fool this man! 1.00

01:23:36.000 Fool! 1.00

01:23:38.000 Send him your hatred. 1.00

01:23:39.000 Deserved it.

01:23:39.000 Well, I'm sad we lost Catherine, so we have this up at ladderwithcrader.com.

01:23:43.000 Um...

01:23:46.000 It's one of those situations where you go, okay, it's not about what's happening just today, right?

01:23:51.000 What will happen two, three years down the line, four, five years down the line, once we have the numbers and it's too late?

01:23:56.000 We already know that all mixed combat groups do much—they fare much more poorly than exclusively male. 1.00

01:24:03.000 We know that.

01:24:04.000 We know that beyond any shadow of a doubt.

01:24:05.000 Let me put it this way.

01:24:06.000 You want to know who I want in the military? 0.93

01:24:08.000 I want a redneck, leather-faced, tobacco-chewing deer hunter who would be out there shooting something anyway, only you've replaced his hunting rifle with an M16 and that deer with a terrorist and given him a license to kill. 0.94

01:24:23.000 Those are the people I want out there. 0.77

01:24:25.000 Those are the people who are useful in the military.

01:24:27.000 I don't want a blue-haired, unshaven feminist out there who's going to be looking for a lawsuit so she can make said skull-dipping redneck uncomfortable. 1.00

01:24:38.000 I don't think it has a place in the military.

01:24:40.000 Is it sexist?

01:24:41.000 Ah, yeah.

01:24:43.000 Let's go with that.

01:24:44.000 Okay?

01:24:45.000 Let's just go with that.

01:24:46.000 Line it with Crowder.

01:24:47.000 All right, we'll be back to talk Leo DiCaprio.

01:25:14.000 And now it's time for your Dating Advice Minute with Bill Cosby.

01:25:19.000 Thank you.

01:25:20.000 Now this next letter comes to me from Munum in Sweden.

01:25:27.000 And he writes, Mr.

01:25:29.000 Cosby, I have recently immigrated to Sweden, but I find myself without a woman.

01:25:37.000 There's a woman that I really want to take, but the only way I can have the relations with me As if I take it into my own hands and she is not necessarily a willing participant in the baloney bop boop bop! 1.00

01:25:57.000 Mother! 0.98

01:25:59.000 It sounds like you've got it under control!

01:26:04.000 This has been your Dating Advice Minute with Bill Cosby.

01:26:09.000 When it's time to party, we will party hard.

01:26:19.000 We'll be right back.

01:26:43.000 All right, we are glad to be back.

01:26:45.000 And we lost, of course, Sergeant Catherine.

01:26:48.000 Glad she was with us.

01:26:49.000 We will have Gerald Morgan on next, talking about Islam.

01:26:52.000 So before we get back to Islam, which we do want to talk about, Leonardo DiCaprio is in the news today.

01:26:56.000 It's so sad because he's such a good actor.

01:26:58.000 You kind of hate to hate him, but it makes it so easy.

01:27:02.000 It's tempting.

01:27:04.000 Kind of enjoyable.

01:27:06.000 Yeah, I know.

01:27:07.000 It is one of those things where you're like, gosh, can you just be good at what you do?

01:27:11.000 And Leonardo DiCaprio is very good at what he does.

01:27:13.000 Of course, he did steal that Oscar from a deserving black gentleman. 0.99

01:27:16.000 Don't you forget that.

01:27:17.000 And he talks today about how, not today, this week, he accused Republicans of being anti-science.

01:27:26.000 This is his exact quote.

01:27:27.000 We have it up here at lightedwithcredder.com.

01:27:29.000 I have it on my computer in front of me anyway.

01:27:33.000 We should not have a candidate, Leonardo DiCaprio says, who doesn't believe in modern science to be leading our country.

01:27:39.000 Climate change is one of the most concerning issues facing all of humanity, and the United States needs to do its part.

01:27:45.000 Alright, so we've written about Leonardo DiCaprio.

01:27:47.000 Obviously there's the hypocrisy, right?

01:27:49.000 The guy has six multi-million dollar mansions.

01:27:51.000 If he wanted to, him and James Cameron, all these Hollywood people, they could lead the charge.

01:27:56.000 Certainly more than even people in Congress.

01:27:58.000 They have a lot of money.

01:28:00.000 Instead, they use that money to buy cars and houses, and they fly around in private jets.

01:28:04.000 In his defense, probably very expensive Tesla, you know, eco-friendly cars that no one else can afford but him.

01:28:10.000 Wow, he's very nice.

01:28:13.000 Teslas are nice cars, but you still can't do a road trip.

01:28:16.000 The maximum mileage is about 250 miles. 0.66

01:28:17.000 Yeah, there's room for you and a ham sandwich, so that kind of sucks.

01:28:20.000 There's not a lot of room in Teslas? 0.61

01:28:21.000 I don't think so.

01:28:22.000 I think there are now.

01:28:23.000 I think they're more luxury sedans.

01:28:25.000 It's not like a Prius.

01:28:27.000 That thing's like a shopping cart with a computer in it.

01:28:31.000 And everyone who can't drive decided, I'm going to drive a Prius.

01:28:31.000 That's true.

01:28:34.000 So the obvious joke is that Leonardo DiCaprio is a hypocrite. 0.99

01:28:38.000 We've touched on that. 0.99

01:28:38.000 We get that. 0.99

01:28:39.000 But anti-science.

01:28:41.000 Leonardo DiCaprio is claiming that Republicans are anti-science.

01:28:44.000 By the way, I'm sure the 30,000 scientists, several thousand of whom were climate scientists, were actually atmospheric scientists, which means I think the number we did the math was over 30 percent of atmospheric scientists proactively signed a petition saying not global warming, climate change was a fraud.

01:29:01.000 That assumes that all of them are anti-science, right?

01:29:04.000 It's not just Republicans.

01:29:05.000 There are plenty of people who acknowledge some problems with climate change.

01:29:09.000 Also, if you read the quote directly, we have it at ladderwithcreditor.com. 0.96

01:29:13.000 Leonardo DiCaprio conflates weather with climate, which is an easy way to tell whether someone is a dumbass. 1.00

01:29:18.000 So the obvious pitch is he's a hypocrite. 0.99

01:29:22.000 But anti-science? 1.00

01:29:23.000 All right, I'll tell you what.

01:29:25.000 Leonardo DiCaprio, I will admit that Republicans are anti-science and say that you are much more of a scientific man the moment you admit that biological sex is binary.

01:29:40.000 How about that?

01:29:42.000 These people are telling us that we're anti-science? 1.00

01:29:45.000 They believe that those penises or vaginas are a figment of your imagination. 1.00

01:29:49.000 Right? 1.00

01:29:51.000 These people are telling you that if you slap on some rubber breasts and walk on into the women's room, you don't even have to do the bottom half. 1.00

01:29:57.000 You're a woman.

01:29:59.000 I think they just live in a fake world too much, too often.

01:30:02.000 They just don't know the difference anymore.

01:30:04.000 It just all kind of just bleeds and runs together.

01:30:04.000 Right.

01:30:07.000 These are the people who tell you that a six-month-old fetus is not a life.

01:30:07.000 I don't know.

01:30:12.000 That a human being growing you with its own DNA, with its own central nervous system, with its own organs, that it's not a life. 0.94

01:30:19.000 That it's merely a parasite. 0.96

01:30:20.000 Right.

01:30:22.000 They're telling you that these people don't want anyone in third world countries to have access to GMOs.

01:30:27.000 They don't believe that GMOs have in any way helped enhance yields with food crops.

01:30:33.000 They're going to tell Republicans they're anti-science because of one issue, climate change?

01:30:38.000 It's just, what space-time warp did I fall into?

01:30:43.000 Is Tim Curry going to come out dressed as a tranny? 1.00

01:30:45.000 Where am I? What time warp did I fall into?

01:30:48.000 I don't know, but if you see a rabbit with a clock, I think you're screwed. 0.86

01:30:51.000 If you see a rabbit with a clock? 0.92

01:30:52.000 Yeah.

01:30:52.000 By the way, speaking of Leo DiCaprio, Johnny Depp, can we get off the hype train now?

01:30:57.000 Have I been vindicated?

01:30:59.000 I've been saying this for years.

01:31:01.000 Everyone goes, Johnny Depp is brilliant. 0.94

01:31:02.000 People put on a bunch of makeup and he plays a creepy gay character. 1.00

01:31:02.000 I go, no, he's not. 1.00

01:31:05.000 You know his agents call him and they say, hey, we got this new role for you.

01:31:08.000 Mmm. 0.97

01:31:10.000 Can I make it a creepy gay role? 1.00

01:31:12.000 I don't know. 0.93

01:31:14.000 Think about it.

01:31:15.000 Pirate. 1.00

01:31:15.000 Creepy gay pirate. 1.00

01:31:16.000 Willy Wonka. 1.00

01:31:17.000 Creepy gay Willy Wonka. 1.00

01:31:18.000 Creepy gay barber. 1.00

01:31:18.000 Barber. 1.00

01:31:19.000 Mad Hatter. 1.00

01:31:20.000 Creepy gay Mad Hatter. 1.00

01:31:22.000 What was the recent one? 0.99

01:31:23.000 I'm trying to think the most recent one that he did.

01:31:25.000 He did the Black Mask one that was... 0.52

01:31:27.000 Oh, that was fine.

01:31:28.000 It was all kind of...

01:31:28.000 It wasn't as bad.

01:31:29.000 You know, you take away the makeup and stuff.

01:31:31.000 He's alright.

01:31:31.000 He's just not that great.

01:31:33.000 But get him out of the creepy gay role, he never gets a nomination. 0.77

01:31:37.000 Did you see Transcendence? 0.98

01:31:38.000 That was a terrible movie.

01:31:39.000 I didn't want to see Transcendence. 0.98

01:31:40.000 I thought, you know, finally we got one, you know, it's not the creepy gay, pale-faced, you know, doofy role. 0.99

01:31:46.000 And it just sucked. 1.00

01:31:48.000 It was terrible. 0.99

01:31:48.000 Well, I can imagine it was terrible. 0.99

01:31:50.000 You have a horrible taste in movies.

01:31:51.000 Well, it was the director-photographer who did all the Batman movies with Christopher Nolan.

01:31:55.000 So I thought, ah, there's some hope here.

01:31:57.000 This guy's learned from Christopher Nolan.

01:31:58.000 You go to a film because of the director of photography...

01:32:01.000 No, no.

01:32:02.000 Well, I do sometimes.

01:32:03.000 But this is his directing debut.

01:32:06.000 Yeah.

01:32:06.000 That movie.

01:32:07.000 Yeah.

01:32:08.000 Most of the time, directors of photography make horrible directors.

01:32:12.000 Oh, we know that now.

01:32:13.000 I know that now.

01:32:15.000 No one told me before.

01:32:17.000 Yeah.

01:32:18.000 If anyone tells you, oh, he's a director of photography, we're really proud that he is helming this film.

01:32:23.000 That means they couldn't find the real director and this guy said, I'll do it.

01:32:25.000 So if they tell you, get excited. 0.98

01:32:27.000 Everything that guy just says, bull****. 0.97

01:32:29.000 Okay, it's not true. 0.97

01:32:30.000 So, Johnny Depp, I feel vindicated about that now.

01:32:33.000 I think everyone's sort of caught on.

01:32:35.000 They're in on the gag.

01:32:37.000 If there's not another Pirates of the Caribbean rolling around, you're just going to get The Rum Diaries or Transcendence.

01:32:44.000 But Leonardo DiCaprio is a good actor.

01:32:46.000 It's one of these things, they just say, well, Republicans are anti-science, and people just believe it.

01:32:50.000 Listen, instead of just saying someone is anti-science, how about you prove climate change?

01:32:54.000 Does Leonardo DiCaprio want to get on the stage and debate someone?

01:32:58.000 No, he's not going to do that.

01:33:00.000 He's not qualified to do that.

01:33:00.000 He won't do that.

01:33:02.000 So all he does is say that they're anti-science.

01:33:04.000 Instead of arguing the points, you're just anti-science.

01:33:07.000 And this is a guy, by the way, who believes that you can change your gender with some fake rubber bitties.

01:33:11.000 So I just feel, I think, that it's getting tired.

01:33:15.000 You think Republicans are anti-science if they deny, if they...

01:33:18.000 Here's the thing.

01:33:18.000 They're not even denying climate change.

01:33:20.000 A lot of them, by the way.

01:33:21.000 They're saying that they don't believe men, man, is the main cause of it.

01:33:25.000 And they don't believe that it will have such catastrophic results that it's the most immediate threat facing our nation.

01:33:30.000 And even if they did, they don't believe the United States could fix it.

01:33:33.000 Because guess what?

01:33:35.000 We're not the main emitters of carbon. 0.99

01:33:36.000 You think China gives a rat's rear end? 1.00

01:33:38.000 Oh, gosh. 0.99

01:33:39.000 If we just raise the cost of everything to be green, they don't care.

01:33:42.000 They're going to beat their kids in the Apple factory or have them making more Nikes. 1.00

01:33:46.000 They don't care about the ozone layer.

01:33:48.000 Carbon emissions.

01:33:49.000 Is Joe Morgan coming on next?

01:33:51.000 Uh, one more.

01:33:52.000 Gerald Morgan.

01:33:53.000 After this.

01:33:54.000 Stay tuned.

01:33:54.000 Lotter with Crowder.

01:33:55.000 Stay tuned.

01:34:25.000 This is a cat warning.

01:34:28.000 There have been reports of human beings bringing pet cats into their household and as a result have experienced urinating and defecation in an unsanitary box, scratches, biting, and overall general dickish treatment towards their human counterparts.

01:34:43.000 This has been a cat warning.

01:34:46.000 You've found yourself at the junction where worlds meet.

01:34:57.000 Politics.

01:34:59.000 Civility.

01:34:59.000 How about honesty in this country, folks?

01:35:01.000 Entertainment.

01:35:02.000 I don't like entertainment.

01:35:04.000 And a whole bunch of other stuff.

01:35:07.000 It's about having a healthy body image.

01:35:09.000 You have a very unhealthy body.

01:35:11.000 We are definitely going to get letters.

01:35:17.000 You're listening to Talk Radio's Strangest Animal. 0.97

01:35:21.000 You're a strange animal. 0.95

01:35:23.000 That's what I know. 0.99

01:35:25.000 You're getting louder with Crowder. 0.99

01:35:28.000 But you're a strange animal. 0.73

01:35:30.000 I got to follow. 0.99

01:35:32.000 Oh, I'm in a speedy just as hell.

01:35:36.000 All right, we are going to right this ship.

01:35:43.000 Back in the third hour, producing with me in studio, as always, is Not Gay Jared. 1.00

01:35:46.000 Follow him on Twitter, draw your own conclusions.

01:35:48.000 I'm assuming we're good because we have to bring on our guest. 0.96

01:35:50.000 We're good, not gay. 1.00

01:35:51.000 We're ready to roll. 0.93

01:35:52.000 Noted neurosurgeon, scholar, gentleman, rocket scientist.

01:35:58.000 He's just very accomplished, but his area of expertise, outside of neurosurgery, it's more of a hobby.

01:35:58.000 Gosh, he's just so smart.

01:36:05.000 Is Islam, theology, religion. 0.98

01:36:08.000 He studied them.

01:36:09.000 He's a world traveler.

01:36:10.000 He's been across the globe.

01:36:11.000 Gerald Morgan, thank you for being with us, sir.

01:36:14.000 It's a pleasure to be here, sir.

01:36:16.000 Thank you. 0.50

01:36:16.000 Actually, it sucks to be here. 0.50

01:36:17.000 You know why it sucks to be here? 1.00

01:36:19.000 Because I usually come on when idiots run amok in the world, and that has happened yet again. 1.00

01:36:25.000 That's true. 1.00

01:36:26.000 It's never like, hey, this has been a great week, Gerald.

01:36:29.000 Come on, let's just have some fun.

01:36:30.000 Talk about the new Ben& Jerry's flavor.

01:36:32.000 No, anytime.

01:36:33.000 Absolutely.

01:36:34.000 Let's pontificate on gay Jared's not gayness. 0.70

01:36:37.000 Yeah, hey, careful, careful, careful. 0.56

01:36:39.000 I said not gayness. 1.00

01:36:40.000 I could be legally liable.

01:36:42.000 Anytime someone sees that Jared's going to be on the show...

01:36:44.000 They're not thrilled.

01:36:48.000 So, Gerald, you texted me this week after Belgium, Brussels.

01:36:56.000 Yeah.

01:36:57.000 And you said you were just like all caps, which is abnormal because Gerald is usually a more insightful gentleman.

01:37:03.000 I'm a very tame texter.

01:37:04.000 Yeah, caps lock is not the mark of an intellectual, generally speaking.

01:37:09.000 More so the mark of an anti-Semite.

01:37:11.000 But I digress.

01:37:12.000 You said, what is it going to take for people to wake up?

01:37:16.000 Yes.

01:37:18.000 You don't always text me because there's so many Islamic attacks. 1.00

01:37:20.000 What was it that got your goat so much about this?

01:37:23.000 Could you imagine if he texted you after every single one?

01:37:25.000 I would just never get anything done.

01:37:26.000 Your phone would just never stop lining up.

01:37:28.000 Well, like I said, that's why we don't talk about the ones in Turkey.

01:37:30.000 It would just be going off like a Yahoo News alert.

01:37:36.000 Yahoo News is still a thing.

01:37:37.000 Yes, it's still a thing.

01:37:39.000 So I think the thing that frustrated me the most is that I honestly thought to myself, go back to any of the conversations that we have had, that we have recorded, and just play that one again, and it'll explain it.

01:37:51.000 Ah, here's another terrorist attack.

01:37:53.000 Can't jump to conclusions about who did it or why.

01:37:56.000 That would be bad of us.

01:37:58.000 That would actually be racist.

01:38:00.000 And I just, I don't know.

01:38:01.000 Like, it's almost like it's the same kind of syndrome that drives Trump people.

01:38:06.000 Nothing's going to make you change your mind about these people.

01:38:09.000 No matter what they do, they can blow up every single airport, every single school, every single plane, and you're still going to go, meh, religion and peace.

01:38:17.000 Yeah, I buy that.

01:38:18.000 I'm in.

01:38:19.000 Terrorism has no religion.

01:38:21.000 Hashtag.

01:38:22.000 Yeah.

01:38:22.000 Right.

01:38:23.000 Except it does, and it's Islam. 0.98

01:38:25.000 So you think...

01:38:27.000 I was talking about this with Brad Thor.

01:38:29.000 I feel like there's been a shift, though, that most people now, in the general populace, there are more people now who are willing to address Islam for the problem that it is. 0.98

01:38:37.000 You don't see the pendulum swinging that way?

01:38:40.000 I see fanatics on the other side winning arguments, and that scares me just as much.

01:38:46.000 Wait, you mean Muslims or leftists?

01:38:49.000 Well, I don't even know what to call them, really.

01:38:49.000 No, leftists.

01:38:52.000 When people come out and say that we should ban Muslims from immigrating to this country, I think that's incredibly stupid. 1.00

01:38:59.000 But I understand the sentiment. 1.00

01:39:00.000 I guess you get a little frustrated at some point.

01:39:02.000 But there are plenty of options in between here and there to make sure that we curtail radical Islam. 0.99

01:39:08.000 And you and I have had great conversations about this.

01:39:10.000 We know that Islam, as it is practiced, if you read your Koran, it's not a peaceful religion. 1.00

01:39:16.000 But let's put all the people who don't know their Korans aside and focus on the 50 or so million in the world that do.

01:39:24.000 And are radicalized.

01:39:25.000 That's the number, by the way.

01:39:27.000 And figure out a way to deal with them.

01:39:30.000 You're saying radicalized.

01:39:31.000 You mean active terrorists?

01:39:32.000 Well, radicalized meaning that if you draw concentric circles out, the people that would actually carry out a terrorist attack, and then you go one more circle out that says maybe they're not willing to act, but they approve of that.

01:39:44.000 Okay, because it's hundreds of millions who support Sharia law. 0.95

01:39:47.000 Okay, so 50 million of people who are basically ISIS sympathizers.

01:39:53.000 Yeah, when they see the attacks, they're like, I didn't do it, but yeah, get them.

01:39:56.000 That kind of thing.

01:39:57.000 That's different from the group that promotes Sharia law.

01:39:59.000 They may not necessarily agree with the tactics to get there, but they agree with the end goal.

01:40:04.000 Right.

01:40:04.000 Okay.

01:40:05.000 So 50 million.

01:40:06.000 Okay, so sorry, I'm sorry.

01:40:06.000 Go ahead and continue with your analogy.

01:40:08.000 That's a lot of people.

01:40:10.000 I don't know if you know, 50 million.

01:40:12.000 Well, I mean, I'm trying to think how many more that is than the 16 at the Westboro Baptist, if you carry the one.

01:40:17.000 About 50 million.

01:40:18.000 Divide by five.

01:40:19.000 50 million minus 16.

01:40:21.000 Yeah, that's the easier way to do it.

01:40:23.000 Well, I mean, that's the scary part to me.

01:40:25.000 You and I, we understand when other people are right.

01:40:29.000 When somebody says something that's actually correct that we disagree with typically, we're willing to say, yeah, hey, wait a minute, you can't throw the baby out with the bathwater.

01:40:36.000 These guys are actually right on this.

01:40:38.000 I hate everything else they say, but on this point they're correct. 0.98

01:40:41.000 And I think that's what we're doing with Islam. 0.99

01:40:42.000 These guys do have an agenda.

01:40:45.000 There is a plot going on.

01:40:47.000 There are precautions that we need to take, but that doesn't mean throwing everybody in an internment camp Like we did the Japanese. 0.99

01:40:55.000 That was a horrible thing.

01:40:56.000 And we shouldn't do anything like that.

01:40:57.000 And that's what you hear.

01:40:58.000 So when you say that it wasn't a terrible thing.

01:41:01.000 Well, she said maybe it's for their own protection, probably.

01:41:04.000 I don't know that that was true.

01:41:06.000 And maybe it was to protect the country.

01:41:07.000 But if we are not based on the principles and the core values that we were founded on, then we don't have a country.

01:41:13.000 All we have is a reactionary state that's going to run to comfort no matter where we can find it.

01:41:18.000 And that's Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump.

01:41:21.000 Name every bad possibility that we've had.

01:41:23.000 And that's what we've done.

01:41:25.000 Post 9-11, when we started allowing the NSA and the FBI and the CIA and those guys to have a lot more freedom, they needed more, but they didn't need as much as they got.

01:41:36.000 They started taking away freedoms that we should never have given up.

01:41:39.000 I mean, it doesn't work.

01:41:40.000 I don't know the official organization in Belgium, but from my understanding, I mean, this happened at an airport.

01:41:44.000 This happened where we've taken every single precaution, not only nationally, but internationally, to ensure that it doesn't happen.

01:41:51.000 It didn't happen at a Greyhound bus station in Flint, you know, where people were a little loopy from drinking some water in the port-a-potty.

01:41:58.000 It happened at the airport in Brussels, the metro station.

01:42:03.000 These are heavily secured areas, so...

01:42:07.000 It doesn't work.

01:42:08.000 My problem is if we're going to take security measures, like you said, maybe they need a little bit more.

01:42:11.000 They didn't need the permission to spy on people, but it was done in a politically correct way that we all knew wouldn't be offensive.

01:42:17.000 It didn't include profiling.

01:42:19.000 It didn't include looking at religions.

01:42:20.000 Listen, profile by religion, last name, and I don't know, maybe if they play cricket.

01:42:26.000 I don't like cricket players.

01:42:28.000 That's more Indian, but yeah.

01:42:29.000 I have a theory.

01:42:30.000 No, no, no.

01:42:30.000 You're making it a racist thing.

01:42:32.000 I don't know why...

01:42:32.000 I'm not...

01:42:33.000 What do you mean, you people?

01:42:35.000 I was simply...

01:42:36.000 What do you mean, you people?

01:42:37.000 A sport that involves...

01:42:40.000 No, it's an activity that can take several days.

01:42:43.000 You don't have enough going on in your life.

01:42:43.000 I don't trust you.

01:42:45.000 That's what I said.

01:42:46.000 This is true.

01:42:47.000 Okay, go ahead.

01:42:48.000 So here's what typically happens in the known universe.

01:42:51.000 When people have a problem, the first thing that they do is say, hey, I wonder if anybody else has this problem.

01:42:56.000 You find somebody else that has this problem.

01:42:59.000 Is there anybody in the world that is hated more by Islamic countries than the Jews? 0.84

01:43:05.000 No. 0.96

01:43:06.000 Israel is hated more than anybody.

01:43:08.000 Okay, so let's look at what Israel does and start to learn a few lessons there. 0.95

01:43:12.000 You don't see the mass attacks like this in Israel.

01:43:14.000 They don't play the game.

01:43:15.000 They understand that there's an enemy, and sometimes that enemy looks like your neighbor.

01:43:20.000 And you've got to be very, very careful how you deal with that thin line.

01:43:24.000 Well, there are plenty of attacks, to be fair, in Israel.

01:43:27.000 They're stabbing attacks.

01:43:28.000 They're not mass attacks like airports being blown up, bus stations, things like that.

01:43:32.000 They blow up buses occasionally.

01:43:34.000 You will see some of that when the crossings.

01:43:36.000 Obviously, there's nothing you can do about some of that.

01:43:38.000 But you don't see these massive attacks like that because they profile.

01:43:41.000 Oh, my gosh.

01:43:42.000 That's terrible.

01:43:44.000 You're just labeled as somebody who's insensitive.

01:43:47.000 And I think that's the European culture that you're seeing that allows this kind of thing to go on.

01:43:52.000 It's not that they weren't secured.

01:43:53.000 It's impressive, too, because the last names over there and the beards, it's all much more similar.

01:43:58.000 With Israel? 0.98

01:43:59.000 With Israel and Palestine. 1.00

01:44:01.000 So the profiling tactics, they've gotten pretty good at it.

01:44:05.000 You put them in a lineup, I'm going to be honest, and I'm going to have a tough time telling someone from Tel Aviv from the Gaza Strip. 0.99

01:44:05.000 They're sharp. 0.99

01:44:12.000 It's going to be tough.

01:44:14.000 It's not going to be an easy, it's not going to be a gimme round of one of these things that's not like the other.

01:44:19.000 You're like, oh, I don't know.

01:44:21.000 Yavka, there we go.

01:44:22.000 We're good.

01:44:23.000 Yes, exactly.

01:44:25.000 Here's the lineup.

01:44:26.000 Turn to your left.

01:44:27.000 Turn to your right.

01:44:28.000 Just turn around completely, please.

01:44:29.000 Okay, there's the Jew. 0.95

01:44:32.000 So, Jared took that.

01:44:34.000 It took a little while.

01:44:35.000 Next game on Slotter Counter, spot the Jew. 1.00

01:44:36.000 Spot the Jew. 1.00

01:44:38.000 We'll just have Ben Shapiro on and go, found him!

01:44:40.000 Found him.

01:44:41.000 A lot of people think I'm Jewish, right?

01:44:42.000 I have a kinship because I get all kinds of anti-Semitic remarks.

01:44:45.000 Okay, so, Joel, but that's true.

01:44:46.000 But the thing is, in Israel, if you've ever taken a...

01:44:48.000 You've been to Israel.

01:44:50.000 No, unfortunately.

01:44:51.000 Oh, I know.

01:44:51.000 Really?

01:44:52.000 I mean, you've been to Singapore, what, Malaysia?

01:44:55.000 Indonesia, Cambodia, Vietnam.

01:44:58.000 So only the Asian place. 1.00

01:44:58.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:44:59.000 The largest Islamic country in the world, by the way.

01:45:02.000 Indonesia?

01:45:03.000 Indonesia, yeah, the island of Sumatra.

01:45:04.000 Yep.

01:45:05.000 They can have good coffee.

01:45:06.000 The Middle East has nothing on them, let's put it that way. 0.99

01:45:08.000 You know, it's funny, it was always listed as one of the countries when I would talk about, well, show me some moderate Islamic countries.

01:45:13.000 By the way, anyone out there, tweet me at S. Crowder, they would point to Indonesia, and both you and Naki Jarrett have been there.

01:45:19.000 I'm sorry, I'm laughing.

01:45:20.000 Purely anecdotal, but it's a scary place from the moment I landed off the ferry there.

01:45:24.000 I mean, it's just like the presence of just like, it just feels thick and heavy and dark and kind of creepy.

01:45:28.000 I don't know.

01:45:29.000 Purely anecdotal.

01:45:30.000 Well, the odor is there too, for sure.

01:45:32.000 Don't get me wrong.

01:45:33.000 It's not a racist thing.

01:45:34.000 It's because of the country.

01:45:35.000 They don't have, they're not advanced.

01:45:36.000 Weird plants.

01:45:37.000 Weird plants.

01:45:38.000 I feel like everything there is a little bit weird.

01:45:40.000 They also have the really expensive coffee.

01:45:42.000 Yeah.

01:45:43.000 Yeah, they do.

01:45:44.000 But you don't know anything about that because you don't drink coffee.

01:45:47.000 I'm very proud of that.

01:45:48.000 Badge of honor.

01:45:49.000 I'll wear it.

01:45:50.000 Well, let's just keep Gerald on for a few seconds because I want to talk about Indonesia because a lot of people use that, Gerald.

01:45:50.000 Okay.

01:45:56.000 And then we can come back to Europe.

01:45:58.000 I think Morocco, Indonesia, UAE are what they point to.

01:46:02.000 UAE is really, really easy.

01:46:04.000 I think you did a video on that, right?

01:46:06.000 We did do a video on the UAE. Morocco, I guess, is kind of inconsequential, but there's still a lot of stuff.

01:46:13.000 Listen, if you're going to hold the standard that you hold for Republicans in the United States when you accuse them of hate speech, let's just hold it to that same standard. 0.94

01:46:20.000 By that standard, Morocco is filled with Nazis. 0.97

01:46:24.000 Also, it might be filled with Nazis. 0.94

01:46:26.000 I just don't know Morocco that well.

01:46:29.000 Gerald Morgan will bring you back, talk more about Islam, And, gosh, you know what?

01:46:34.000 I haven't scanned this office for bombs in a while.

01:46:37.000 Let's take this break and make the most of it. 0.99

01:46:37.000 Not gay, Jared. 0.99

01:46:39.000 It's a good call. 0.95

01:46:39.000 Good call. 0.95

01:46:40.000 We'll be right back.

01:46:40.000 Ladder with Crowder.

01:46:41.000 This is John Kasich's Ask Me Anything, and I approve this message.

01:47:07.000 All right, now time to take some questions regarding some issues that concern real Americans.

01:47:12.000 We need real solutions.

01:47:14.000 Yes, you, sir, over there.

01:47:16.000 Yeah, first question, Governor Kasich. 0.99

01:47:19.000 Why do you think it is that the perception in American politics, as polarized as it is, is still that you're a piece of ****? 0.98

01:47:26.000 Now, doesn't anyone want to ask me about foreign policy or... 0.98

01:47:31.000 Well, we'll get to that, but this is an important one to start off with.

01:47:35.000 Well, I don't know that I believe that's the case.

01:47:40.000 It is the case.

01:47:41.000 I have a Wall Street Journal poll right here.

01:47:43.000 Well, no, the newest poll is Quinnipediac. 0.99

01:47:47.000 No, Wall Street Journal has actually been running a live poll while doing this conference, and now 97.6% of Americans think that you are in fact a piece of s**t. 0.99

01:47:55.000 Are you sure about that? 0.99

01:47:57.000 Yes, it says 200,000 responses, uh, who checked the box, piece of human s***. 0.97

01:48:02.000 Well, who's running these polls? 0.97

01:48:06.000 Stay tuned for more of John Kasich's Ask Me Anything.

01:48:10.000 I'm John Kasich, and I approve this message.

01:48:14.000 I'm John Kasich.

01:48:29.000 I'm ticking off the social justice warriors.

01:48:31.000 You should see the amount of hate I get on there. 0.76

01:48:33.000 Far, far, far worse than any Fat Sports Illustrated model or Black Lives Matter charlatan. 1.00

01:48:38.000 So listen, it's free.

01:48:40.000 You get to be entertained and you can chime in.

01:48:42.000 Also, if you're following me on Twitter, you can send me your tweets and maybe you'll be lucky enough.

01:48:47.000 And I mean lucky enough because I have a lot of followers, okay, that they call me the follower machine to have your tweet to me or not gay, Jared, included in our rockinest tweet of the week. 0.71

01:48:58.000 So follow me on Twitter at S. Crowder.

01:49:00.000 If not, I don't want to say I have sights on your mother, but...

01:49:05.000 Oh, she's dead? 0.97

01:49:07.000 You're just saying that because I made a mom joke.

01:49:09.000 No, she's really dead? 0.75

01:49:10.000 well, you kind of walked into it.

01:49:18.000 I'm going to do the things that I want to do.

01:49:22.000 I ain't got a thing to prove to you.

01:49:26.000 I ain't going to wear the clothes that you're lying.

01:49:30.000 I don't give a hood about what you think.

01:49:35.000 Hey, by the way, before we go back to our guest, honor Gary Shandling, actually, a comedian who passed away this week.

01:49:43.000 Very sad, very funny guy.

01:49:44.000 Larry Sanders was a monumentally influential show on American television.

01:49:49.000 If you liked The Office, if you liked Curb Your Enthusiasm, Parks and Rec, any of those single-camera sitcoms, You owe a lot to Gary Shandling, and I always thought he was funny.

01:49:57.000 He was a big influence on me as a child, and one of the few people I could listen to.

01:50:01.000 We are back with Gerald Morgan.

01:50:04.000 I wanted to say one quick thing.

01:50:05.000 During the break, my wife texted me.

01:50:08.000 Wife number one, by the way. 1.00

01:50:12.000 She's been to Morocco, and she got groped several times.

01:50:15.000 And she was with her group.

01:50:17.000 She did a semester abroad when she was in college.

01:50:19.000 She said it was really, really actually not a very safe place.

01:50:19.000 She got groped.

01:50:22.000 That's entirely anecdotal.

01:50:24.000 Gerald Morgan, you're back.

01:50:25.000 Let's talk about Indonesia.

01:50:28.000 Yes, Stephen.

01:50:29.000 Indonesia.

01:50:30.000 Why are you talking this way?

01:50:31.000 I'm just playing.

01:50:32.000 Sorry.

01:50:33.000 We don't bring you on to play.

01:50:35.000 This is a serious program and you're a serious guest.

01:50:37.000 Yes, absolutely.

01:50:38.000 Have some self-respect, sir.

01:50:40.000 I have very, very little, but it's mostly your fault.

01:50:45.000 Okay, go ahead.

01:50:49.000 So Indonesia is a very interesting country.

01:50:52.000 I spent, I don't know, probably about a week in Indonesia, somewhere right around there.

01:50:58.000 And, I mean, you want to look at a country that is incredibly oppressive.

01:51:03.000 There's about 203 or 4 million people that identify as Muslim.

01:51:08.000 Most of it's Sunni. 0.95

01:51:09.000 And then you've got some concentration of Shia. 0.78

01:51:13.000 What's your language with the FCC, sir?

01:51:15.000 That's true.

01:51:17.000 It's very oppressive, very dark, very, I don't know, very backwards as far as economics are concerned.

01:51:25.000 And I'm not dogging anybody's culture.

01:51:27.000 They can do whatever they want to do.

01:51:28.000 But, I mean, there were fires raging everywhere.

01:51:30.000 It really felt like the armpit of the universe for me.

01:51:35.000 And I was out in the country, so I get it that it may be different in cities, and I'm not dogging anybody from Indonesia.

01:51:40.000 Perfectly fine human beings, I'm sure.

01:51:42.000 Well, those fires you saw were churches.

01:51:45.000 Well, yes.

01:51:46.000 There were more church burnings than there.

01:51:47.000 There were mostly Bibles that were being burned to make sure.

01:51:49.000 Why do you – because you've heard this, right?

01:51:52.000 I mean, they point – I wonder if they point to Indonesia because Barack Obama was raised there and so they feel the need to whitewash it.

01:51:57.000 But you've taught, obviously, on Islam and kind of comparing to Christianity.

01:52:01.000 Yeah.

01:52:03.000 I've certainly encountered it in politics.

01:52:05.000 I don't know if you've encountered it where, you know, in your milieu, people have always pointed to Indonesia as an example for moderate Islam.

01:52:12.000 When I say, name me one, invariably it comes back, for a while they tried to argue UAE, or Egypt, or Turkey, and not so much anymore, and now they always say Indonesia, Malaysia, or Morocco.

01:52:22.000 Why is that, if this is the case?

01:52:24.000 It's because no one's been there.

01:52:26.000 You just name a place, it's like, ah, nobody's been there. 0.99

01:52:30.000 My life sucks!

01:52:33.000 I really do think that's the one thing, the ingredient. 0.98

01:52:36.000 I mean, people go to Malaysia.

01:52:37.000 I went to Kuala Lumpur and spent just basically the night, went downtown.

01:52:42.000 It was really cool.

01:52:43.000 Cool buildings.

01:52:44.000 Yes, very tall, very tall buildings.

01:52:47.000 It was interesting, but you basically have...

01:52:51.000 Hold on, was that our obligatory praise for Malaysia?

01:52:54.000 That was it.

01:52:57.000 I'm just trying to fill my duty as a co-host.

01:52:59.000 Before we rip into it, cool buildings, though.

01:53:02.000 Cool buildings, really cool.

01:53:03.000 They kind of connect to the top.

01:53:04.000 I had a good kebab.

01:53:07.000 Great insight, Nagi, Jared.

01:53:08.000 Great insight.

01:53:09.000 He's not the best color man in the business for no reason.

01:53:12.000 So Malaysia, you were there.

01:53:13.000 Sorry, go ahead.

01:53:14.000 Continue.

01:53:15.000 So I spent just a little bit of time there, and Malaysia is one of those countries that says it's Islamic or Muslim, but isn't practicing it quite as much.

01:53:26.000 And so you don't...

01:53:27.000 It's more of a cultural thing than it is a religious thing, and that's where you really have to draw the line.

01:53:32.000 There are tons of countries out there that say that they're Christian, you know, United States, and we don't act like it for the most part.

01:53:38.000 Most people don't know what that means.

01:53:39.000 So you could tell them something from the book of Psalms, and they'd be like, yeah, I agree with that.

01:53:43.000 You're like, that's not in the Bible at all.

01:53:44.000 And they wouldn't know.

01:53:45.000 So you got to understand that's kind of what you're talking about.

01:53:48.000 When you get to a place like Indonesia, they practice their religion a lot more.

01:53:51.000 It's a much more ingrained part of their life.

01:53:54.000 And so you start to see some of the oppression.

01:53:56.000 For example, when we were out in public, the guys that I was with had been there.

01:53:59.000 They said, hey, when you bless the meal, right, just a normal kind of thing, do it with your eyes open.

01:54:05.000 We don't want anybody to see that we're praying.

01:54:07.000 Because that's a marker.

01:54:09.000 You know, you're a white guy in their country praying.

01:54:11.000 You're probably not a Muslim. 1.00

01:54:13.000 You're most likely a Christian there to do that kind of thing proselytizing. 1.00

01:54:17.000 Just tell them you're Cat Stevens' brother.

01:54:19.000 I don't know that they would know.

01:54:22.000 Say, yeah, I'm Cat Stevens slash Yusuf, Islam's brother. 1.00

01:54:25.000 And listen, when I get some downtime, let's go kill Salman Rushdie. 0.99

01:54:27.000 You'll blend right in. 0.99

01:54:30.000 They would be all for it.

01:54:31.000 It's an easy sell to blend in, Gerald.

01:54:34.000 I'm taller than a lot of the people, so it wasn't an easy sell in most of those countries.

01:54:39.000 Well, you're taller than most people here in the United States.

01:54:43.000 You're tall for a Viking.

01:54:44.000 You're certainly tall, I would imagine, in Malaysia.

01:54:47.000 I stood out, no pun intended.

01:54:49.000 Okay, I see.

01:54:51.000 Don't try and take over my job.

01:54:53.000 Oh, sorry.

01:54:53.000 You're the smart guy.

01:54:54.000 I'm the foil.

01:54:55.000 Yes, my apologies.

01:54:56.000 Okay, so that's Indonesia.

01:54:58.000 Are we done talking about Indonesia?

01:54:58.000 Well, hold on.

01:54:59.000 Do you have any specifics, or did we want to go back to Islam as a whole?

01:55:03.000 Well, let me just say this.

01:55:04.000 The further you travel east, I'm sorry, west in Indonesia, so the island of Sumatra, You're going to get more kind of fanatical kind of people there.

01:55:12.000 The more that you kind of travel to the east a little bit, it gets a little less, a little less, a little less, and then way east is almost like Christian. 0.93

01:55:19.000 Yeah, so different islands.

01:55:19.000 Really?

01:55:21.000 So these guys are not one blob of people, really.

01:55:24.000 Right.

01:55:25.000 Different groups of people separated, obviously, by islands that are in islands.

01:55:30.000 I'm surprised about Sumatra, though, because, you know, all that fair trade coffee comes from Sumatra.

01:55:34.000 I don't think it can be fair if there are radical Islamists selling it to you.

01:55:37.000 You realize there's one little patch of little hipsters with mustaches and bow ties, and they're just... 1.00

01:55:42.000 Breaking in the coffee.

01:55:44.000 Being beaten at night.

01:55:46.000 It happens.

01:55:47.000 They were tourists at once.

01:55:49.000 Got captured.

01:55:50.000 The rest is history.

01:55:51.000 And great coffee.

01:55:52.000 Now they're making Starbucks holiday dark roast.

01:55:56.000 And there's no out clause in their contract.

01:56:00.000 I didn't know that about Sumatra.

01:56:02.000 I didn't know that that would have been more...

01:56:04.000 So if you go toward like Bali... 0.96

01:56:07.000 Yeah, so you get a little bit more traditional Islam and the southern tip of the island of Sumatra, then head a little bit more east, still traditional. 0.98

01:56:16.000 But the further east you get, it actually, yeah, stop it.

01:56:20.000 It starts to get a little bit more actually Protestant Catholicisms in there.

01:56:24.000 It just depends.

01:56:25.000 How is that allowed if you can't pray at a table?

01:56:27.000 Well, it's a different island, and so it's really hard to enforce rules if most of the people don't care on that island.

01:56:34.000 Okay, well that makes sense, but I'm sure it's probably not necessarily entirely legal for them to practice their faith freely.

01:56:40.000 No, no, no.

01:56:43.000 No, no, no, no.

01:56:43.000 It sounds so innocent.

01:56:44.000 We are talking legalities, sir.

01:56:46.000 Right.

01:56:46.000 No, we are talking about under Islamic government.

01:56:49.000 50 million people, ISIS sympathizers, hundreds of millions of people.

01:56:52.000 Ben Shapiro's talked about that.

01:56:53.000 We've done a video on that.

01:56:54.000 People who believe you should die if you leave the faith.

01:56:57.000 So let's not whitewash us.

01:56:59.000 Gerald Morgan will be back with us after this break.

01:57:01.000 Stay tuned.

01:57:01.000 break.

01:57:01.000 Steven Crowder here.

01:57:20.000 Hey, Jared, what are you doing?

01:57:21.000 I'm just having trouble getting through this book.

01:57:23.000 That's because you can't read.

01:57:24.000 I know.

01:57:25.000 You should have used Freedom Project Academy.

01:57:27.000 Freedom what?

01:57:28.000 Yeah, Freedom Project Academy.

01:57:29.000 Just go to FPEUSA.org.

01:57:31.000 It's a fully accredited private online school, no Common Core, and absolutely no government funding whatsoever.

01:57:38.000 All the classes are taught live online, kindergarten through high school, with real teachers based around the country.

01:57:43.000 So through Freedom Project's classical curriculum, students master the basics like math, English, history, science, alongside some more commonly neglected courses like logic.

01:57:51.000 You're not getting that in a lot of schools.

01:57:52.000 Economics, American Studies, and Latin, all of which foster the long-lost art of critical thinking and create leaders for tomorrow.

01:57:58.000 All classes are recorded to be viewed 24-7, and you can get your very own sneak peek of any class or professor at fpeusa.org.

01:58:05.000 Open enrollment runs March through July, but classes always fill up fast.

01:58:10.000 Now, do you have your GED equivalency, Jared?

01:58:12.000 Is that important?

01:58:12.000 No.

01:58:12.000 I think so.

01:58:13.000 I mean, you might want to give them a call.

01:58:15.000 That's FreedomProjectAcademy at FPEUSA.org.

01:58:24.000 I'm Bernie Sanders, and I approve this message.

01:58:29.000 In my travels across this country, I hear too many stories from Americans whom the system has failed.

01:58:40.000 Thank you so much, Mr.

01:58:42.000 I love what you do so much.

01:58:42.000 Sanders.

01:58:45.000 I was walking to my friend's house, and I fell on the sidewalk, and there was this guy there, and I accidentally fell in the sky, and his penis went inside of me, and so I got pregnant, and this mean Republican in my state wouldn't let me get a late-term abortion, and so now I'm pregnant, and I need you to pay for it! 0.94

01:59:08.000 In a Bernie Sanders presidency, these Americans will be heard, and Bernie Sanders will help them. 0.96

01:59:16.000 Not good enough, America!

01:59:19.000 All right, I am glad to I am glad to be back.

01:59:45.000 with you.

01:59:47.000 Back with Gerald Morgan.

01:59:48.000 We got some tweets.

01:59:49.000 Some people apparently think I've missed facts regarding the Ted Cruz Donald Trump wife debacle.

01:59:55.000 Please tell me which facts I've missed. 1.00

01:59:57.000 If you believe that those facts are Ted Cruz started it, you are an idiot. 1.00

02:00:01.000 Gerald, are you with us? 1.00

02:00:03.000 I am here, sir.

02:00:05.000 Have you been paying attention to that, by the way?

02:00:07.000 The picture?

02:00:08.000 Yeah, well, which one? 0.89

02:00:10.000 Yeah, the Donald Trump basically pointing out Ted Cruz's wife as uglier than his wife was kind of his thing.

02:00:17.000 Yeah, well, she also is real, probably hasn't slept around with a lot of people or posed nude in any way. 1.00

02:00:24.000 I don't care if Trump's wife does that. 0.69

02:00:27.000 It's just, you know, then that's, I guess, fair game.

02:00:29.000 But I don't know.

02:00:30.000 You don't bring that in.

02:00:32.000 He doesn't exactly have a character person standing next to him in these photos.

02:00:37.000 Why would you ever pick a fight?

02:00:38.000 He would claim that Ted Cruz did because some Pac-Man associated with him ran an ad about Melania's self-nude portrait as an ad.

02:00:48.000 Oh, I think she took the picture, right?

02:00:50.000 And she let it get out there.

02:00:52.000 She didn't take the picture.

02:00:53.000 The picture was taken?

02:00:54.000 Yeah, she laid naked for the picture, which is a skill. 1.00

02:00:57.000 Unfortunately, it is also a perishable skill.

02:01:00.000 And that's when Donald Trump trades you in.

02:01:02.000 Typically.

02:01:03.000 Yes, typically.

02:01:04.000 It's like riding a bicycle.

02:01:07.000 If you don't pose naked every day, you forget it and you kind of have to pick it back up.

02:01:12.000 It's a perishable skill, like anything else.

02:01:14.000 So we were talking about Indonesia before we went...

02:01:18.000 So let's come back to Islam, not only Indonesia.

02:01:21.000 I mean, what would be, before we go to Europe here, because I want to get to that, what would be the single most moderate Islamic country, Gerald?

02:01:29.000 You would know better than I would.

02:01:30.000 I've searched high and low.

02:01:31.000 Maybe there's something I miss.

02:01:32.000 If you had to pick one and say the most, what do you think it would be?

02:01:36.000 That's a pretty tough question.

02:01:39.000 You want to look for one that's probably more economically viable, not oil-based, but just overall economics are pretty good, because then people tend to run away from these exclusive ideologies that lead to terror.

02:01:52.000 So if you look at, say...

02:01:55.000 A Vietnam or a China or something like that, and we had to fight with communism. 0.99

02:01:59.000 Of course, communism still reigns in some of those places, but as economics go in and start to change the country, the country starts to change because they're like, wait a minute, this is stupid. 0.97

02:02:07.000 Are you trying to push this business that if you just give terrorists jobs, they'll stop losing? 0.98

02:02:13.000 No, no, no, no, not at all.

02:02:14.000 Jobs for jihadis.

02:02:15.000 Jobs for jihadis? 0.51

02:02:17.000 It's a make-work job.

02:02:19.000 It doesn't build roads out in the desert.

02:02:22.000 I don't think that that's true at all. 0.99

02:02:24.000 I think the point there is that people with a lot of time on their hands typically do stupid things, and I understand that's a valid point. 0.91

02:02:29.000 You have to give that. 0.90

02:02:31.000 But that does not excuse or validate what they're doing.

02:02:34.000 I would say something like Morocco, probably.

02:02:36.000 I think Turkey in parts has been, and in parts has been horrible. 0.99

02:02:40.000 So it just depends.

02:02:42.000 It really does.

02:02:42.000 Well, give it five years, and we could probably all say agree on Germany.

02:02:45.000 We're getting there.

02:02:47.000 Disregard the rape.

02:02:48.000 Of course.

02:02:49.000 We'll disregard that, but that's still moderately healthy behavior for a lot of them.

02:02:54.000 In German?

02:02:55.000 That's progress.

02:02:56.000 Well, listen, you can't hold them accountable if a woman goes out in anything short of a parka and a ninja suit. 0.99

02:03:02.000 What choice did he have?

02:03:05.000 Okay, so you're up.

02:03:06.000 With a bit of sin not to.

02:03:09.000 They wouldn't make it one second in Texas, my friend.

02:03:12.000 One second.

02:03:14.000 No, they wouldn't make it one second in Texas.

02:03:16.000 Okay, so we go to Europe, right?

02:03:17.000 And I was talking about this.

02:03:19.000 Europe has been on this appeasement path for a very long time, places like Belgium, right?

02:03:24.000 I'm running a column right now.

02:03:25.000 It should be up tomorrow.

02:03:26.000 I'm glad that Europe kind of hates the United States.

02:03:29.000 I feel like we're at a point right now, kind of like I've been vindicated on Johnny Depp, where the United States has been vindicated.

02:03:35.000 Where we say, no, it's not really about our interventionism. 0.96

02:03:38.000 These people want to kill you regardless.

02:03:39.000 And they go, no, no, no, we're going to be tolerant. 0.67

02:03:42.000 We don't think that's going to work out.

02:03:44.000 And everyone said they hated us, that we were arrogant, that we were trying to be too strong, and that if we weren't involved in these countries, like them, they would be safe.

02:03:51.000 And now Europe has a much bigger terrorism problem than the United States.

02:03:55.000 Do you think we're at a point where it's like, okay, we've seen what happens.

02:04:00.000 The United States was right. 0.71

02:04:02.000 We are in an unfortunate position of having to say, I told you so.

02:04:07.000 I don't think anybody wants to be in the position of seeing somebody else make the wrong choice there, but you've seen over and over again in France, in England, obviously we've seen stuff all over the place.

02:04:21.000 Spain has had problems as well.

02:04:23.000 Dearborn.

02:04:26.000 So a lot of places have just said, you know, let's be nice, let's be accommodating, and there's a certain amount of that that's okay, but the problem is that if you don't recognize that there is a legitimate enemy that wants to see you destroyed, you can never react appropriately to that.

02:04:45.000 And by saying that every person that comes in deserves an equal chance at having citizenship or having some rights in your country, it's just not the way things should or really will work out in the real world.

02:04:58.000 In fact, you're gonna see more and more and more of this stuff happen Over there, we happen to have a little bit of distance, and that helps us a lot.

02:05:06.000 But at the same time, when we say things like, yeah, we want to take in 10,000, 15,000, whatever the numbers are of these people who are refugees, and my heart goes out to them.

02:05:14.000 Don't get me wrong.

02:05:15.000 But at the same time, you have to make sure that you protect the people that are citizens of your country in Europe and here.

02:05:21.000 Well, even on CNN, they were talking about now leftist CNN is saying, here's why Europe has a bigger terrorism problem than the United States.

02:05:28.000 And they went through a bullet point.

02:05:28.000 A big reason was open borders closer to Syria that the United States doesn't have.

02:05:32.000 But let's go on down the logic trail.

02:05:35.000 It's not that hard for a migrant to hitch a ride to Mexico and just cross on over a non-wall. 0.90

02:05:43.000 So we need to be realistic that that's something that needs to be done.

02:05:46.000 And it's not racist.

02:05:47.000 It does come down to national security.

02:05:49.000 It does.

02:05:50.000 And honestly, that's the bigger thing for me.

02:05:52.000 I know there's a lot of crazy Ann Coulter followers out there who, I'm sorry, she's just gone off the deep end for me. 0.78

02:05:58.000 I don't know what happened to her.

02:05:59.000 Maybe she was always there and she just didn't tell us.

02:06:01.000 But, you know, build the wall and that's it.

02:06:04.000 She's a single voter or single issue voter. 0.85

02:06:06.000 I'm more worried about somebody coming across the border, as porous as it is, with some kind of explosive, some kind of weapons to be able to fund a cell, basically, or to arm a cell, than I am about somebody coming across and taking a job.

02:06:21.000 I get that that's an important issue as well, but they just don't rank as the same priority for me.

02:06:26.000 And so I do want border security, and I think it takes care of both issues.

02:06:30.000 But my main concern is not being blown up.

02:06:32.000 Right, not necessarily finding a job.

02:06:34.000 Well, most of that stuff to blow up can be found at Home Depot.

02:06:35.000 All you need is the right person in the will to make it.

02:06:37.000 I mean, for a lot of these things...

02:06:38.000 Well, look in Europe.

02:06:39.000 You know, they don't include these in gun violence, all these mass bombings, right?

02:06:39.000 Look at all these mass...

02:06:43.000 They're not included.

02:06:44.000 When the leftists, they try and compare gun crime or violent crime.

02:06:47.000 They exclude the Islamic countries because, well, the United States has more gun crime than the rest of the modernized world. 0.59

02:06:51.000 Not even modernized world.

02:06:52.000 They use some UN list of developed worlds.

02:06:55.000 So Japan and South Korea, those places aren't even in there when they use suicide or gun crime rates.

02:06:59.000 So they don't include Islam there, but then they want to include Islam when they want to say, hey, it's not backwards.

02:07:03.000 Let's be tolerant.

02:07:04.000 They want to have it both ways.

02:07:05.000 They don't have guns.

02:07:07.000 They just blew stuff up.

02:07:09.000 It's like a bat belt. 0.83

02:07:11.000 Instead of shark repellent, it's anti-Christian jihad bombs that go off.

02:07:15.000 It's not that hard to build.

02:07:16.000 Let me zone in on something here, Gerald, because today you're being very diplomatic about it.

02:07:20.000 So you're talking about acknowledging evil, right?

02:07:22.000 Acknowledging an enemy.

02:07:23.000 You can talk about ISIS, or you could have talked about al-Qaeda.

02:07:26.000 There's always going to be a new group.

02:07:29.000 You know the Quran.

02:07:30.000 You know Muhammad. 0.84

02:07:31.000 Islam.

02:07:32.000 Islam the religion.

02:07:33.000 Islam the ideology. 0.66

02:07:34.000 At its root, is it evil? 0.58

02:07:37.000 Absolutely.

02:07:38.000 I don't think there's any question to this.

02:07:41.000 At the root of it, it's absolutely evil.

02:07:43.000 When Muhammad was in the cave, he said a dark spirit grabbed him and said, recite.

02:07:48.000 When's the last time an angel of light did that?

02:07:51.000 Like, I don't understand.

02:07:53.000 And he actually came back to his wife and said, hey, this really crazy thing just happened to me.

02:07:58.000 I think it was a demon.

02:07:59.000 And she's like, no, no, no.

02:08:00.000 I think it was God.

02:08:01.000 Why don't you go back?

02:08:02.000 I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

02:08:07.000 Exactly.

02:08:07.000 I don't understand it, Stephen.

02:08:09.000 What kind of terrible wife tells him to go back? 1.00

02:08:11.000 That wife is clearly up to no good, trying to whack. 1.00

02:08:14.000 She was looking for a new husband, I think.

02:08:16.000 Exactly.

02:08:17.000 She was looking for the trade-in.

02:08:19.000 I'm going to get lots of tweets on this.

02:08:19.000 I'm sorry, guys.

02:08:20.000 Truth is truth.

02:08:21.000 I mean, you want to read the history, it's there.

02:08:22.000 I'm not making this stuff up.

02:08:24.000 Well, it's important to note, we have a lot of atheists, too, obviously.

02:08:26.000 Listen, if you're an atheist, right, and somebody comes to you and says, I believe I saw an angel.

02:08:31.000 Oh, what did I tell you?

02:08:32.000 Oh, he told me to be good and to love everyone.

02:08:33.000 Or, oh, he told me it brings me tidings of great joy.

02:08:35.000 Even if you're an atheist, that's very different than someone else. 0.99

02:08:37.000 Hey, I think I just spoke with Satan and I'm supposed to kill people. 0.96

02:08:41.000 Let's just talk about it from a pragmatic standpoint. 0.99

02:08:41.000 Right? 0.99

02:08:44.000 Are you an Uber driver?

02:08:46.000 Yeah.

02:08:47.000 But I'm going to cloak it in this thing called a religion of peace.

02:08:50.000 It means submission.

02:08:52.000 Right.

02:08:53.000 Yeah, well, I think that's important for people to know because they try and say, like, here's the thing.

02:08:56.000 You can believe it's all a fairy tale, right?

02:08:59.000 But people have done some really crazy stuff in just being inspired through stories or being inspired by lies.

02:09:06.000 It doesn't matter if God doesn't exist.

02:09:08.000 To someone who's purely talking about their own personal security in the earthly sense.

02:09:14.000 Yeah, absolutely.

02:09:15.000 I mean, it really has no bearing on the situation.

02:09:17.000 You have to deal with the reality that you're faced with.

02:09:20.000 And the reality is that there are a lot of people, not every Muslim person feels this way, but I would argue it's because they haven't read their Quran very well, and they don't understand that the book that they say is their holy book.

02:09:31.000 And you can read it.

02:09:32.000 It's in black and white.

02:09:33.000 There is no question about it.

02:09:34.000 It's not an interpretation issue at all.

02:09:36.000 And the game changer, and I was talking to one of my clients tonight, the game changer, the thing that we don't understand, Is that people that are willing to die to take out someone are unstoppable.

02:09:47.000 If you're willing to die, if you're willing to trade your life for theirs, you cannot stop that from a security standpoint.

02:09:52.000 Ask the Secret Service.

02:09:53.000 Somebody who's willing to go out and try something drastic like that, they have a very high chance of success.

02:10:00.000 It's a dangerous thing.

02:10:01.000 And most people don't understand why Islam does that.

02:10:04.000 They think they're just so oppressed and so worried about their future that they're willing to die, and that's not it at all.

02:10:08.000 No.

02:10:09.000 The only way you're guaranteed to go to heaven, the only way is to die in jihad. 0.92

02:10:14.000 That you're guaranteed.

02:10:15.000 Well, it's like fighting Tyler Durden.

02:10:15.000 Yeah, exactly.

02:10:17.000 He wants to bleed all, you don't know where I've been!

02:10:20.000 That's the Islamic jihad. 1.00

02:10:21.000 They want to get beat up. 0.99

02:10:22.000 They're punching themselves in the parking lot.

02:10:24.000 And that's interesting that you say that.

02:10:26.000 I remember when I was younger, I said, well, these are the most devout Muslims, right?

02:10:30.000 These are the people who claim to be, who are waging these jihads. 0.99

02:10:33.000 They're flying planes in the buildings.

02:10:34.000 And almost all of them are drinking and going to strip clubs.

02:10:37.000 And I have Muslim friends who don't do that. 1.00

02:10:39.000 You know why?

02:10:39.000 Because it's a free pass.

02:10:40.000 They have a whole pass on that because they're about to go into jihad.

02:10:45.000 Almost universally, all of these people who do these suicide bombings, they have their Mardi Gras beforehand.

02:10:50.000 And they're just, you know, they're looking up ankle pornography.

02:10:54.000 They haven't seen them in a while.

02:10:55.000 These people need ankle pornography. 1.00

02:10:57.000 You know, they go to strip clubs. 1.00

02:10:59.000 Right, yeah.

02:11:01.000 They're not laying out their prayer rug at that point, like, praying five times a day.

02:11:04.000 I'm going to the Spearmint Rhino.

02:11:05.000 I've got a free pass to the big guy, as long as I take out a few white folk with me. 0.84

02:11:11.000 I think a lot of people miss that, and I think when you combine, listen.

02:11:13.000 Yeah, they don't know that.

02:11:14.000 People who believe that it's okay to marry a nine-year-old Whether she wants to or not, consummate it when she's nine.

02:11:24.000 People who believe this, people who believe that women need four witnesses if they've been raped to prove it, these people who believe those values are willing to die for them.

02:11:34.000 The combination is something that you've never seen in any enemies of war in modern history.

02:11:41.000 And I think that's a shocker if people actually knew.

02:11:44.000 Yeah, absolutely.

02:11:45.000 And if you look at Christians, you're right. 1.00

02:11:47.000 We are told to be kind to one another.

02:11:49.000 We don't always do a great job of that, so sometimes we're our own worst enemies.

02:11:53.000 But our deal is believe in Jesus as the Messiah, right?

02:11:56.000 We're in Easter season right now.

02:11:58.000 We've got Good Friday tomorrow.

02:11:59.000 Believe that he died, rose again for our sins, and ascended to heaven is who he said he was.

02:12:05.000 And you're in.

02:12:06.000 There is no other stuff here.

02:12:08.000 There's no more things that need to be done.

02:12:10.000 Obviously, it should change your life if you truly do believe that.

02:12:12.000 But in Islam, you can be the most devout Muslim, and you can take care of everything that you're supposed to do.

02:12:18.000 And at the end of the day, if you don't die in jihad, it's basically up to the mood of God.

02:12:22.000 Allah, in their vernacular, right?

02:12:24.000 It's up to his mood whether you get it or not.

02:12:27.000 Stephen, that would be terrifying to me.

02:12:29.000 If I actually believed in a heaven and a hell, that would be absolutely terrifying for me.

02:12:33.000 Because I would never know.

02:12:36.000 He would hate Tuesdays, that's for sure.

02:12:39.000 Yes, he would absolutely hate Tuesdays. 0.98

02:12:40.000 The 72 virgins are not necessarily guaranteed to be female, not gay. 0.94

02:12:44.000 Although technically you could dress him up as one.

02:12:47.000 Wow, yeah.

02:12:48.000 My mood would be underwiser. 0.99

02:12:50.000 Androgynous, not gay Jared in the afterlife. 0.98

02:12:51.000 This is true. 0.98

02:12:52.000 All right, Gerald, we have to let you go.

02:12:53.000 People can follow you at G. Morgan Jr., right?

02:12:56.000 G. Morgan Jr., yes, sir.

02:12:58.000 All right, well, we will bring you again when there's another tragedy, and everyone will want to swallow a knife, but we appreciate you informing us, sir.

02:13:04.000 Have a good night.

02:13:04.000 Absolutely.

02:13:05.000 Thank you, Liderworth Crowder.

02:13:06.000 Crowder, we'll be back to wrap this all up for you.

02:13:08.000 We'll be right back.

02:13:37.000 - Breaking news on the Lower Will Crawler.

02:13:40.000 I'm Perry Matheson.

02:13:42.000 We now take you live to the historic meeting of President Barack Obama and Raul Castro in Cuba.

02:13:52.000 Uh...

02:13:53.000 No...

02:13:55.000 No, where am I? Hey, Barack!

02:13:57.000 He's up, you guys!

02:13:58.000 Hey, you took a bad fall!

02:14:00.000 What happened?

02:14:01.000 I think your blood sugar got low or something.

02:14:01.000 I don't know.

02:14:04.000 Oh, my backside hurt.

02:14:05.000 Yeah, it was a rough one.

02:14:06.000 Now, why am I hooked up to this colostomy bag?

02:14:09.000 I think you have IBS or something.

02:14:09.000 I don't know.

02:14:11.000 You might want to get it checked out.

02:14:13.000 Could you give me a small favor, Barack?

02:14:13.000 Hey!

02:14:16.000 I guess so.

02:14:17.000 Okay, I just need you to sign this, taking Cuba off the official list of funders of terrorism.

02:14:24.000 You know, we don't need that kind of piano.

02:14:26.000 We're going to be friends.

02:14:27.000 Maybe I should have someone else look at us before I sign anything.

02:14:30.000 Okay, of course.

02:14:31.000 Well, you need to call your wife. 0.54

02:14:34.000 You took a phone.

02:14:35.000 You didn't have your phones cut off.

02:14:36.000 You know, come on.

02:14:37.000 I just need you to sign it for just me.

02:14:39.000 It's Raul.

02:14:40.000 Oh.

02:14:41.000 Alright, I'll sign it.

02:14:43.000 An initial here. 0.55

02:14:44.000 And we need you to take a picture with serial mass-murdering racist Che Guevara.

02:14:49.000 Just for PR. Che Guevara?

02:14:52.000 I don't know about that.

02:14:53.000 You get a free ticket!

02:14:55.000 Sold!

02:14:57.000 We'll keep you updated as this historic event unfolds.

02:15:01.000 On Waller with Crowler, I'm Perry Matheson.

02:15:04.000 We'll be right back.

02:15:34.000 On Waller with Crowler, I'm Perry Matheson.

02:15:48.000 Not Gay Jared just lost his headphones.

02:15:49.000 He got a little rambunctious in the dancing.

02:15:51.000 You did, Not Gay Jared. 0.99

02:15:52.000 It was a good dance.

02:15:54.000 I think I'm worked out for the week here.

02:15:56.000 It's a good song.

02:15:57.000 I can avoid the gym for a whole other week now, which is fantastic.

02:16:00.000 Four months.

02:16:02.000 So, you know what?

02:16:03.000 We should do rockin' a tweet of the show.

02:16:04.000 We'll do it next week.

02:16:05.000 We'll bring back some more of the games next week.

02:16:07.000 I've been traveling a lot, so we don't have as much of the tech stuff set up for you, but we had some great guests.

02:16:12.000 A lot we were talking about.

02:16:13.000 We covered Leo DiCaprio.

02:16:14.000 Brussels happened this week.

02:16:16.000 Nigeria happened at the time of this program.

02:16:19.000 We don't know a whole lot, so I try and avoid talking about things on air when we don't know much yet.

02:16:24.000 Again, because we have the luxury of doing a once-a-week show, and we can actually be more informed if we discuss it, as opposed to simply going on and rambling about something when you have no clue.

02:16:34.000 Though five bucks says Islam. 0.99

02:16:36.000 Yeah, I'm going to...

02:16:43.000 So you're telling me there's a chance.

02:16:47.000 A hundred percent.

02:16:48.000 A hundred percent.

02:16:49.000 Oh, it's a hundred percent.

02:16:49.000 You should go more than five bucks.

02:16:51.000 That's all I got.

02:16:52.000 That's all you paid me this week.

02:16:53.000 That's all I paid you this week.

02:16:54.000 Well, there was the Cheetos.

02:16:56.000 There was the Frito-Lays. 0.96

02:16:57.000 Yeah, we don't know a lot about it, but of course you can bet.

02:17:00.000 And I know that Samuel Jackson is praying it's a white guy.

02:17:04.000 Nigeria, I wouldn't bet the house there, Sammy. 1.00

02:17:07.000 One thing that is important, and we were talking about this, and I received some emails and tweets today.

02:17:11.000 Why do you think the left joins up with Islam so much when all of their values fly in the face of things that leftists claim they support? 0.99

02:17:23.000 I think it comes down to control.

02:17:25.000 I think there are a lot of people out there who don't know, a lot of Bernie people, a lot of Hillary people, a lot of people out there who aren't malicious, who bought into the lie, right?

02:17:33.000 They think they want to be tolerant.

02:17:34.000 Many people probably believe genuinely that Christian conservative Republicans are more of a problem than Islam.

02:17:41.000 There are a lot of people out there who have bought that.

02:17:43.000 And I blame them for not being educated, but I don't think they're malicious.

02:17:46.000 Then there are people like Hillary Clinton.

02:17:48.000 Then there are people like Bernie Sanders, like Barack Obama.

02:17:52.000 Obviously, they know better.

02:17:53.000 They've had their Homeland Security briefings. 0.97

02:17:56.000 Obviously, they understand the evil that is straight from the pit of hell or whatever you believe that is Islam. 1.00

02:18:03.000 But for political expediency, they have to keep their constituency in the dark.

02:18:07.000 So there are two groups of people, and you need to know that there are people who can be convinced.

02:18:10.000 People who just don't know, you can read them a few verses from the Quran.

02:18:13.000 You can send them some of our videos, or Ben Shapiro's videos.

02:18:16.000 Our videos are designed to be digestible, and we source them at ladderwithcredit.com in 30, 40.

02:18:20.000 We have some videos with an incredible amount of references, which of course doesn't matter.

02:18:24.000 People just say we're lying because we're paid by the Koch brothers.

02:18:28.000 Those guys are handy when you want a paycheck.

02:18:30.000 Those Koch brothers are handy when you check.

02:18:31.000 Funding your Twitter and stuff.

02:18:32.000 I had to stop wearing my Koch brothers Flava Flav clock with the big K because it was kind of a dead giveaway.

02:18:38.000 But I think it comes down to control.

02:18:40.000 And Islam is a big system of control. 1.00

02:18:43.000 Leftists want control. 0.71

02:18:44.000 And the way to control people is to...

02:18:46.000 What's the easiest way to control people?

02:18:48.000 Obviously you can get into the physical, taking firearms away from a populist, but before people, I'm not saying that all liberals are like Hitler, before any regime, whether it's Hitler, whether it's Mao, whether it's Stalin, this is why the First Amendment is so important, right?

02:18:59.000 We're not just talking about the ability to protect yourself with the Second Amendment.

02:19:03.000 The first thing they do, and the thing they secure more than anything else, is controlling information.

02:19:08.000 That's why Cuba doesn't have a free press.

02:19:10.000 Or Venezuela.

02:19:11.000 Of course, I don't think Nazi Germany had a free press. 0.76

02:19:14.000 North Korea is just booming with free press.

02:19:17.000 A huge blogosphere.

02:19:18.000 Yahoo News is huge over there.

02:19:20.000 You don't realize that, but it's huge.

02:19:22.000 In North Korea.

02:19:23.000 Yeah, we're banned in Islamic countries.

02:19:24.000 People on military bases, they were saying depending on which Wi-Fi they're using, they can't get on.

02:19:30.000 So I do think it comes down to control.

02:19:33.000 Otherwise, it's unjustifiable.

02:19:35.000 It's unjust.

02:19:35.000 There's no way for the two to mesh.

02:19:38.000 Progressivism, liberalism, whatever you want to call it, and Islam. 0.97

02:19:41.000 Here's something else I think that is important.

02:19:42.000 Listen, I'm generally a non-interventionist.

02:19:44.000 Like I said, I think the main point should be if we go into a country, you go in to win, you kill their leaders, you break stuff, you end it.

02:19:52.000 That's what I think.

02:19:53.000 If the United States is going in, you go in.

02:19:55.000 If you're in a fight, you're in the fight at that point.

02:19:57.000 Otherwise, don't do it.

02:19:58.000 So yeah, I think the United States needs to be selfish when it comes to that.

02:20:01.000 What I do hope people take into consideration, though, is the lie that the United States is this evil empire.

02:20:07.000 We're just going over there. 0.97

02:20:08.000 We're nation building and this is bullcrap. 0.91

02:20:10.000 The United States is the biggest empire there is.

02:20:13.000 We have an article up at ladderwithcrader.com.

02:20:15.000 Let me explain to you.

02:20:16.000 You obviously know ISIS, where they burn people alive in cages, where they rip people's heads off, where they cut their tongues out of their body while they're alive and they cut their eyes out and their arms and their legs.

02:20:28.000 In North Korea, the level to which they brutalize Christian dissidents is unbelievable. 0.71

02:20:34.000 From public humiliation to just wood chips up the thumbs. 0.96

02:20:40.000 Seesaw abortions, forced abortions. 1.00

02:20:42.000 For those of you who don't know what it is in North Korea, seesaw abortion.

02:20:45.000 If you have children listening, I would advise you cover their ears or turn down the radio right now.

02:20:50.000 This happens in North Korean prison camps.

02:20:52.000 Just because you want to say, well, listen, the United States has no business there.

02:20:54.000 Maybe.

02:20:55.000 But let's not act like there's a moral equivalency.

02:20:57.000 They will take a pregnant woman, of course, if you're a Christian, and put a board on her and people will do a seesaw on the pregnant woman until there's a forced abortion. 0.97

02:21:06.000 Really, really evil stuff that they have to proactively think about.

02:21:09.000 And let me tell you something.

02:21:10.000 That woman getting a forced abortion in a North Korean prison camp, her only hope is seeing American troops coming over that hill.

02:21:17.000 She's not waiting on the British.

02:21:18.000 She's not waiting on the Turkish. 1.00

02:21:19.000 She's not waiting on the French. 0.93

02:21:21.000 Her only hope in life is that the United States decide enough is enough. 0.98

02:21:25.000 Am I saying that makes it the United States job?

02:21:27.000 No, I'm not.

02:21:29.000 But I'm saying you need to understand it from their perspective before you start vilifying American troops and conservative Americans who believe that we have power and great responsibility.

02:21:38.000 That man being burned alive in a cage by ISIS? His only hope, his only prayer, is American Air Force jets or Navy jets coming over and dropping an ungodly firestorm on these terrorist, evil, horrendous bags of human scum. 1.00

02:21:54.000 That's their only hope. 1.00

02:21:56.000 So you need to understand this.

02:21:57.000 I'm not saying it's our job.

02:21:59.000 But when we go off and act as though the United States is taking their oil, let's put this into context.

02:22:04.000 These people are facing brutal torture, oppressive regimes.

02:22:07.000 They have no rights.

02:22:09.000 Those people, guarantee, you ask them, what do you want to see?

02:22:12.000 It would be, be rescued by the Americans.

02:22:16.000 It's their only hope.

02:22:17.000 Because we're the only ones who can do it.

02:22:19.000 Does it mean it's our job?

02:22:20.000 No. 0.99

02:22:22.000 But there is some responsibility that comes with being a country, the only country who's had its crap together for decades. 0.98

02:22:30.000 Let's put that into context next time someone tries to act as though the United States is no better than ISIS. And send them an article. 0.97

02:22:36.000 Light it with Crowder.

02:22:37.000 We'll see you next week.
