The Anchormen Show with Matt Gaetz - Episode 83 - Defund The Mob. Woke Protest Rules for White People. Research for Shrooms？

00:00:00.000 you ever watch this guy on television you all were not telling the truth and you should not

00:00:06.140 be trusted congressman matt gates thank you for what you did for your country today be offended

00:00:09.800 with the democratic whip not house republicans like a machine matt gates

00:00:13.980 welcome to hot takes i'm congressman matt gates we sound a little different today it's because

00:00:21.340 i'm on the road but still here let's talk about the news president trump taking action to defund

00:00:28.800 the mob a great story in the washington examiner trump orders review to redirect federal funds

00:00:34.940 from cities that permit anarchy the president has now issued a memo to his executive agency heads

00:00:41.920 if there are grants if there are awards of federal dollars to communities that won't protect a

00:00:48.740 library you know maybe you don't go fund their library if it's a community that you know won't

00:00:54.800 protect their parks from being defaced maybe don't give them a big federal grant to go and

00:01:00.040 you know re-landscape their parks this is what an executive does i think president trump here is

00:01:05.880 applying good business sense and it is ludicrous for these weak state and local officials who permit

00:01:14.640 lawlessness to then expect taxpayers in other parts of the country to subsidize their failure and to

00:01:22.420 invest in their failure we cannot do that you know frankly we would like all communities all states

00:01:29.680 to be healthy and safe for the citizens of this country but certainly when that standard is just

00:01:37.940 abandoned you cannot ask communities like mine to go and give big federal grants to places like portland

00:01:45.900 in seattle where in far too many circumstances they've waved the white flag of surrender to the mob

00:01:52.120 from the state and local level and thank goodness the trump administration kind of laid the law down

00:01:57.320 and we finally got some order there but the disorder does spread and it needs to be confronted with

00:02:03.280 strength this decision by the trump administration is a sign of strength and i fully support it

00:02:08.920 it is never a bad time to have a hot take on the status of psychedelic law and our friends over at

00:02:20.180 marijuana moment uh kyle yeager they've got the story three in five dc voters support psychedelics

00:02:26.900 decriminalization initiative new poll fines and initiative 81 will be on the ballot for washington dc voters

00:02:35.240 uh currently sitting at 60 percent uh saying they would vote in favor 24 saying that they would vote

00:02:43.320 against the measure 16 undecided uh so interestingly enough in the united states congress i've got

00:02:51.800 legislation co-sponsored with alexandria ocasio-cortez to democratize access to psilocybin and mdma for

00:03:01.120 research purposes uh and that was up for a vote as part of an amendatory uh process with the appropriations

00:03:11.080 act and i think we only got like 40 something votes it was uh opposed by a vast majority of the congress

00:03:18.920 but there are studies showing the positive effect that psilocybin can have on people with cancer and

00:03:27.300 matter of fact canada has allowed the use of psilocybin for cancer patients now so you know

00:03:34.120 not as if canada is usually out there making crazy medical decisions i mean heck we are going to be

00:03:39.680 important a lot of our drugs from canada so uh you know it's not like some third world country mdma has

00:03:47.140 also shown some positive results with service members who come back and suffer from ptsd so i think that

00:03:57.040 you know we should always be open-minded when it comes to research that's a great a way to really

00:04:03.200 get your arms around what the applicability of a certain substance could be so i hope that we can

00:04:09.160 get a congress more accepting of research in the meantime dc residents definitely in favor

00:04:15.540 according to marijuana moment according to this survey

00:04:18.920 amazon enforces trans orthodoxy the company that won't allow a publisher's ads for my skeptical book

00:04:30.240 this is the wall street journal abigail schreier and she has an issue with amazon willingly promoting

00:04:40.600 books that celebrate transgender activity non-binary gender activity with today's youth

00:04:48.880 but her writing is critical of that worldview she is critical of kind of the trans culture

00:04:55.660 and it doesn't get the same benefit quite the double standard i don't know irreversible damage is the title

00:05:04.060 of her book maybe check it out but it is hard to sell books without amazon i could tell you that as a

00:05:10.080 guy you know with a book coming out on september 22nd i can just tell you that they always let you know

00:05:16.040 going in that most of your sales are going to be on amazon and people typically promote their amazon page

00:05:21.680 because that's where they're going to get distribution and acceptance of the audience and so

00:05:25.660 when they have the power to crowd out even discourse even dissent on something as unsettled as

00:05:33.220 the impact of going transgendered as a young person i think that is that is destructive to 1.00

00:05:41.240 the marketplace of ideas i don't know what the right answer is for a transgender middle schooler i

00:05:47.980 certainly don't think we should ever be mean to people who are trans i certainly don't think they

00:05:52.420 should be deprived jobs or housing or anything like that but in terms of what we think the emotional

00:05:59.240 psychological cost is to a middle schooler or high schooler i think that there's got to be room in

00:06:05.060 the united states for debate and disagreement and research on that question before we simply crowd

00:06:12.480 out one viewpoint and i would hope that like these big american companies like amazon would understand

00:06:19.080 that they don't help the country when they just like declare themselves the arbiter of truth

00:06:24.520 you've got to allow truth to develop and be understood and be tested through critique and

00:06:32.360 somehow our political correctness doesn't always allow us to do that and it's a shame check out the

00:06:38.500 piece in the wall street journal check out the book and please please don't sign up for the cancel culture

00:06:44.840 one of our office's videos got over 1.3 million views online yesterday we thought

00:06:54.480 you might want to hear it it's sort of the dueling nancy pelosi's you'll see she takes one perspective

00:07:01.020 in one circumstance and a very different perspective in another take a listen to the speaker leaders take

00:07:06.340 responsibility so i said he's a weak leader he doesn't take responsibility he places blames blame on

00:07:12.620 others i think that they owe that this salon it was me an apology for setting up it was a setup

00:07:18.920 if you did not catch the wolf blitzer bill barr interview it was a doozy a lot of great parts

00:07:28.500 you should totally check it out we'll provide a link on our social media but my favorite part of

00:07:32.840 this interview is when wolf asks about foreign interference take a listen the intelligence

00:07:37.640 community says russia china and iran are seeking to interfere in the u.s presidential election for

00:07:43.660 various reasons but mostly they want to sow dissent in our country exacerbate racial tensions etc like

00:07:49.880 that of those three countries that the intelligence community has pointed to russia china and iran

00:07:55.160 which is the most assertive the most aggressive in this area i believe it's china which one china

00:08:01.860 china more than russia right now yes why do you say that because i've seen the intelligence that's

00:08:06.400 what i've concluded what are they trying to do i'm not going to discuss that to this but they're

00:08:10.260 trying to help who who i'm not going to get into that more aggressive than russia yes because the

00:08:17.220 u.s intelligence can be trying to influence the united states yes so listeners to this podcast have

00:08:22.500 been hearing for quite some time that china is the real threat china prefers biden china knows that 0.93

00:08:29.880 biden you know has has a history of agreeing to their worldview from a policy perspective and from a

00:08:37.240 policy standpoint and so uh i think it's very interesting that the attorney general was so

00:08:42.180 matter of fact i could just tell you based on my own service in the congress the intelligence i've

00:08:47.700 reviewed i completely agree with attorney general bill barr the aggressive threat that we face the most

00:08:53.940 aggressive threat that we face is from china russia they will be mischievous they will try to 1.00

00:09:00.140 interfere they've tried to interfere before they will probably try to interfere also in the future

00:09:05.920 but where we have to become the most resilient is against china i appreciate the attorney general's

00:09:12.080 honesty on that his clarity and it reinforces what we've been talking about on hot takes

00:09:17.460 i love the united states of america and it's why i stand so strong against the woketopia like this

00:09:29.060 effort to replace the united states with a different value set with a different country with

00:09:35.660 just a totally uh realigned perspective on inclusion and equality see i believe in this country we are

00:09:45.160 prosperous because we treat people equally because we allow equal opportunity for folks to share their

00:09:51.460 perspective to grow to lead to prosper and we must always stand for that and while obviously we have

00:09:58.180 not always achieved it we cannot stop striving to achieve it and when we give up on that concept when we

00:10:05.520 say no we're not going to work to create equality in our country we're going to try to put one group of

00:10:12.720 people over another group of people i think that that is where we've seen the worst moments in our

00:10:18.740 country's history in the past and it would probably be where we would see the most uh horrific moments in

00:10:24.520 the future because you know we uh have to be loving americans and appreciative americans to everyone

00:10:32.320 but i did wonder to myself if the woketopia were to transpire what would be the rules what could what

00:10:40.280 could you say or not say do or not do where could you lead where would you be required to follow

00:10:45.440 and i figured the best way to figure out how the woketopia would govern the rest of us would be to look at

00:10:52.960 the rules that they have for themselves and their own allies and so i found the manual the manual.com

00:11:01.940 in their culture section will post the article to our social media proper protest etiquette for allies

00:11:10.520 now i can't go through each and every rule that they have because it is insufferable but one thing

00:11:16.580 that you know is that they call allies the white people i'll just save you that that um that plan so

00:11:24.800 rule number one know your place before you show up to your first protest it's important to know and

00:11:32.080 recognize your place you're going into someone else's home so it's vital you check your privilege at

00:11:39.180 the door before barreling up the stairs protests can be electrifying spaces but they're not parties

00:11:46.400 nor are they trendy gatherings to casually dip in and out of they're serious highly organized and

00:11:52.860 mission driven so they must be treated as such um one thing i do appreciate it says don't antagonize

00:12:01.380 the police um but then you know it's in that section uh it says the same white privilege that

00:12:08.920 allows you to confront authority without fear could very well be the thing that saves you in the crowd

00:12:14.900 wide violence your actions might inspire so they're not saying don't antagonize the police because we

00:12:21.280 should respect the police or not incite people they're saying that it's their privilege that

00:12:26.200 could protect them next rule not all chants are for you though it may be tempting to join in every

00:12:33.300 time a new chant is started it is important to recognize that not all protest chants are for all

00:12:39.180 participants chants like i can't breathe and hands up don't shoot speak specifically to a type of police

00:12:45.620 brutality that most white folks simply haven't experienced if you're called to join in then do

00:12:51.400 but really think about the things that you're saying a similar note could be made about raising 0.78

00:12:55.640 the black power fist again this is a gesture with a long and important history so be careful about 1.00

00:13:01.040 appropriating it after reading that i still don't know what the rules are like are you allowed to use

00:13:06.320 the black power fist or not it seems like if you appreciate it enough you're allowed to so long as 0.98

00:13:10.880 it's not appropriating and then on the chance you're not allowed to lead the chance but you can join in

00:13:17.340 the chance if others ask you to join in the chance but i i mean i guess you have to make sure you stop

00:13:23.520 first because if it ever looks like you're leading the chant then you violated that rule without really

00:13:28.060 wanting to uh here's another rule listen to black leaders this one should be obvious but it's been 0.99

00:13:34.300 striking to me how often black leadership has been usurped by white allies at the protests i've 0.88

00:13:40.000 been to hmm that's interesting we might come back to that this is not okay and it is vital that black 1.00

00:13:46.760 leaders be the ones calling the shots leading the chance and determining the flow of the march if you

00:13:52.300 really want to support the cause listen more than you speak and do as you're told whoa that got deep

00:14:00.500 so if you are not black you are to do as you're told listen don't speak uh and don't usurp anybody

00:14:11.640 that is black that is the rule as written uh gosh that is uh that is quite the society that they would 0.95

00:14:20.920 build um that they would that they would invite others to last one i'll read don't over document

00:14:26.920 there's a fine line to walk in terms of protest documentation on one hand it's important to take

00:14:33.200 photos record videos and generally document the experience of a historic protest movement like

00:14:38.800 this however any documentation must serve the cause not distract from it therefore you should avoid

00:14:46.240 posting anything on social media that centers you in the narrative so instead of snapping a cute

00:14:53.420 protest selfie for your grid use your phone to document arrests or instances of police violence

00:14:59.620 and please please please never include the faces of other protesters in your uploads interesting so

00:15:07.740 again the rules here seem a little complicated you're not allowed to take pictures of your face

00:15:13.880 and upload them but you're also not allowed to take pictures of other people's face unless there's a

00:15:19.640 negative view of police and then you're obligated to take the photos well seems like a lot going on

00:15:26.900 i prefer treating people equally uh regardless of who they are where they come from who they love

00:15:34.000 i'm the kind of person that thinks that america will flourish when we embrace and love our fellow americans

00:15:41.160 and this just sounds like a terrible place to me

00:15:44.340 president trump was in pennsylvania let's take a listen i watched nancy pelosi you must wear your mask

00:15:53.560 you have to wear your mask and we're going to keep every beauty salon closed in california and all over 0.99

00:15:59.840 the country and then i see a picture i say uh nancy pelosi well where's the mask

00:16:06.920 and i'll tell you what she must have treated that beauty salon owner pretty badly she uses the salon and 1.00

00:16:14.540 the salon turned her in 0.97

00:16:15.800 the salon turned her in 0.97

00:16:19.840 i don't think i would have turned her in i would have said well you know

00:16:27.980 she's a customer i got to take care of my customers right 1.00

00:16:31.680 but she made them open and the salon turned her in and the salon did business with her 1.00

00:16:38.460 how much do they hate nancy pelosi

00:16:42.300 and then she made a terrible mistake because you want people that can't be set up

00:16:51.780 she said i was set up i was set up by the salon owner i was set up

00:16:58.740 i said tell me she didn't say that please

00:17:01.380 so i just put out that if she was set up then she shouldn't be leading

00:17:07.360 the house of representatives

00:17:09.940 i want the salon owner to lead the house of representatives because 0.75

00:17:17.440 she set up think of it she set up the speaker of the house 0.94

00:17:23.320 that was a big mistake as soon as i heard she said

00:17:26.460 well she set me up nancy you're not supposed to get set up you're representing our country 0.92

00:17:33.000 you know what she should have done honestly she should have said i made a mistake sorry

00:17:38.340 and nobody would be talking about this is like the biggest story

00:17:41.340 this is the big crazy nancy highly overrated person let me just say 0.96

00:17:47.300 she's a highly overrated person they give her such good play she is a highly overrated person look 1.00

00:17:54.580 they just turned off a camera because they don't want me saying that

00:17:58.300 well over the last three and a half years we've secured america's borders fixed our broken trade deals

00:18:05.840 rebuilt the united states military obliterated the isis caliphate 100 percent 0.88

00:18:13.160 secured american energy independence
